SET FIRE TO HIDE ROBBERY
Colorful News "Movies" BY THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE Residential Boomerang THAT all that glitters is not gold is being aptly illustrated in Washington, D. C., in residential quarters where restrictive covenants against colored people are in full force and effect. In fact, the restrictive covenant, heralded as a savior of domestic integrity when the Curtis case was decided, was a species of boomerang in the deep disguise of segregation.
The fact is that real estate sharks and avaricious property holders are not infrequently singing the "blues" over their inability to dispose of "choice" properties, because of some clause which was once written into not a few deeds. Then, too, colored people have become wary of properties which have a scintilla of restrictiveness about them. Rather, they are hiding to apartment houses instead of making payments upon eleventh and twenty thousand-dollar homes, only to struggle with a faulty title and with judges' decisions. What is the reason? Not a few homeowners have upon their hands properties which no one will rent rent lease or buy. Just around the corner, perhaps, Negroes have located, adding as much color to the situation as would obtain were they block neighbors. And the owners find an ugly "white elephant" upon their hands. Their own groups don't want such houses because they're too near the colored people; and the latter don't want them because there's a cloud upon the title. Can you beat it?
Pan-Pacific Conference
THE Pan-Pacific Conference, authorized by the United States Senate and the House of Representatives, has been called by the President, to take place in Honolulu, Hawaii, April 11 to 16, 1927. This conference will consider the education, rehabilitation, reclamation and recreation of all countries bordering upon the Pacific Ocean and having territorial interests in the Pacific, including the colonial governments.
Invitations have been issued by the United States Secretary of the Interior, who has immediate charge of the Conference, to all territories and outlying parts of the United States, a group comprising Alaska, Canal Zone, Hawaii, Philippines, Porto Rico, Samoa, and the Virgin Islands.
Aside from the colored content in certain of the above named territories, many colored people are found in the Pacific Ocean group, to whom, certainly, there is nothing more important than the topics to which the Conference will give its fullest attention.
Virgin Islands, particularly are in need of adventure and action relative to peaceful arts and pursuits, reclamation questions, and educational facilities.
It is to be hoped the Virgin Islanders and the other colored groups will prepare their briefs in such substance and form as will mature them a full hearing as to needs under the Panama-Canada conference which can easily be made Pan-American at the same time.

The new St. Mark's M. E. Church, 137th and 138th streets, Edgecombe and St. Nicholas avenues, was formally dedicated at the opening services last Sunday morning. In the absence of Bishop Luther B. Wilson, who is attending the Bishops' Convention in Denver, Colorado, Dr. Ezra S. Tipple, President of Drew Theological Seminary, was selected by the Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor of the church, to have the honor of delivering the first sermon.
Dr. Tipple used for the text of his sermon Isaiah 50:11, "Walk in the light of your fire."
The doctor said that in the seventeenth century several great writers came to the fore, namely two John—John Bunyon and John Milton. There were also many great preachers, Richard Bixbee, George Herbert, Samuel Goodwin.
He added that in the eighteenth century another John came into prominence, who although he was not as great a writer as were the other Johns, he was a much greater teacher. In this instance, Dr. Tipple was referring to John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist Church.
John Wesley is said to have attended a certain church service and to have said, "I believe." Dr. Tipple declared that with his statement Methodism will be for preaching. John Wesley went about preaching his doctrine of Jesus Christ, always "walking in the light of his fire."

Cry of "Lynch Him" Raised After Woman Is Killed
HARTFORD, Nov. 8.—Leaving a dead woman lying on the road, Isaiah Leebove, 45 West Fifty-seventh street, New York, his chaufeur, and other passengers hurriedly re-entered the car and the machine rolled away when the crowd raised a cry of "Lynch him!"
That is the Leebove, who was recently admitted to the New York Bar, explained his failure to report, at the scene of the accident, after running down Mrs. Arthur L. Young of Exeter, N. H., in
In referring to the new church, Dr. Tipple said that the new place of worship was a step forward in the history of St. Mark's Church. He declared that it had kept its faith for many years, and should continue to keep it with greater faith and love than ever. He concluded with this statement, "Walk in the light of your fire and it will give you greater power to love and carry on the message of Jesus Christ."
The Rev. Mr. Robinson led the congregation in song, accompanied the meed choir of over fifty voices. He also announced the receipt of several gifts to the church, hymn books for the choir, and collection plates.
The new edifice is one of the most beautiful in New York City. Overlooking City College, its architecture is a copy of that of the college, alternate layers of black and white stone, with towers at each end of the building. The inside is finished in a grayish-white cement, giving the auditorium a cheerful warmth which helps materially to beautify the services. The balcony circles over the back half of the lower floor in a graceful arch. The altar stands on a plaster in the center of one of the walls of the auditorium. The seats for the choir are either side of the large Cassavant organ, said to be one of the finest in the city, is fitted into the farther wall. No other church in the city has so many windows facing the auditorium, giving it plenty of daylight.
The movement to erect the church in Harlem was started by the late Rev. W. H. Brooks, D. D., who retired from the pastorate of St. Mark's because of illness, eventually resulted in death. He opened a purchased, architect's accepted, and builders accepted before Dr. Brooks relinquished his work.
A campaign for subscriptions resulted in pledges amounting to $275,000 to be paid over a period of five years. In addition, some valuable pieces of property were sold to help complete the fund required. The cost of the church is over $500. During the coming week the pastors, choirs and congregations of several other churches will be the guests of St. Mark's Church.

Interracial Aid Saves Boy's Life
Condemned to Die, Given 99 Years, Then Acquitted in Three Trials
HOUSTON, Texas., Nov. 5—An interesting case of interracial cooperation, in which the life of an innocent Negro was saved, culminated here a few days ago. Some months back a grave crime was committed against a woman in this city, who declared that a tail Negro boy, fresh from the offender. A colored boy, fresh from the offender, answered the description in a general way, was arrested, tried, and sentenced to death. The Negroes of Houston believed him innocent and brought the case to the attention of the interracial Commission. The Commission also had doubts about the matter and took action at once. They delegated two colored men to go to the jail and interview the boy. On receipt of the report of these men, which confronted the man who was grave doubt as to the prisoner, the Commission employed a lawyer, went into court, and asked a rehearing and change of venue. Their plea was granted and in the second trial the boy was sentenced to ninety-nine years of imprisonment.
Still the Commission was not satisfied as to his guilt and secured another trial, making bond for the prisoner in the sum of $2,500. A few days ago the third trial took place on the boy who was declared not guilty and was set free. This is but one illustration of many helpful activities of the Commission in this city.

"Negro Must Take an Interest Only in Himself to Forge Ahead"
Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Internationally Known Union Movement Worker, Addresses Meeting of Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters
"The Negro must take an interest only in himself in order to forge ahead," said Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, in speaking before a meeting of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, held at St. Luke's Hall, West 130th street, last Wednesday night. Miss Flynn, who is an internationally known labor union worker, is on a speaking tour of the United States in behalf of the newly formed International Labor Defense League. The Brotherhood meeting was her only address in Harlem.
IWC
"Others take only a passing interest in you," she continued, "and these people usually have ulterior motives. It is better to have an open enemy to yourself than to have someone treat you kindly to your face and knife you behind your back."
Miss Flynn was unusually forceful in her manner of address. Everyone in the audience could feel her sincerity. When she declared that her purpose in life was to see that the worker received justice, her face revealed the faith that was behind her efforts.
"The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters must rely on itself for strength. Though its primary issue is to gain recognition from the Pullman Company, yet its ultimate problem is to secure for every colored working man and woman a living wage. And by a living wage I mean one that is more than just the bare necessities of life."
"The Brotherhood," Miss Flynn said, "is a step toward the building of power for the colored people. And only when they gain this power can they meet the white man on his own grounds and demand equality in labor."
A. Phillips Pandolph, the leader of the Brotherhood, told of some of his experiences in the West with the members of the other branches of the union.
In referring to the election that the Pullman Company was holding at the present time to establish a company union, he said that the porters in several cities in the West were absolutely refusing to vote for the plan against the Brotherhood.
"In several communities the Pullman Company has had to throw away the ballot boxes because no one will vote. Why can't we do the same here? If we co-operate in the East as they are doing in the West there is not one bit of doubt that the proposed company union will fail miserably and the Brotherhood of Pullman Car Porters will emerge victorious in the fight."
William H. DesVerney, assistant
general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, who has just returned to New York from an extended trip through the West, told a reporter from The Amsterdam News that the porters were getting behind the Brotherhood in greater numbers every day.

It Made a Difference Where Marie Came From
Queen Marie of Roumania was the innocent cause of a row between two colored men which resulted in one being stabbed on Thursday, Oct. 28, at Fleet place and Myrtle avenue. According to the police, a man who said he was George Thompson, 32 years old, of 204 Navy street, and John Anderson, 25 years old, of 199 Duffield street, were discussing what country the queen came from. Mr. Thompson maintained with much vigor that her Majesty hailed from Roumania, Mr. Anderson disputed this with equal vigor, claiming that Queen Marie was from Russia. This difference of opinion led to the calling of names and strong language as to the intelligence of each other. This also led to a fight and it is alleged that Thompson took a knife out of his pocket and stabbed Anderson in the right side.
Patrolman James Connick of the Poplar street station heard of the fight and came to the scene. After a struggle he was able to subdue Thompson and relieved him of a large butcher knife. He was arrested and charged with felonious assault.

The sad case of Ernest Reynolds, erstwhile most popular Pulman porter in his district, has just come to light among the tales told when porters gather in the offices of their new union, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. It seems that Ernest Reynolds has been an officer in the benefit association of the porters for years and years. His re-election was considered as certain as Al Smith's by everybody in his district. Indeed, votes cast for some other porter in the primaries were always taken as a great joke on the other porter, and the unhucky "opposing candidate" whose name appeared on the ballot opposite Ernest Reynolds was unmercifully "kidded" as to his political ambitions.
But this year all is different. Just before the primaries Reynolds learned, it is said, that the Pullman Company was running for him. Stoil pigeons had reported that he was a "good Brotherhood man." it is alleged. Ernest realized that he had cause to worry. He confined his worry to six of his closest friends. They all knew what strange things can happen to primary and election results before the ballots are counted. They all agreed that there might be some台网 peting with the vote cast
for this militant fighter.
"Ernest we'll all vote for you. We'll know that there will be six votes cast for you anyway. You'll win the primary if it's a fair deal, but if it isn't, well, you'll have six votes."
The six men cast their votes as they said they would. Ernest cast his own ballot for himself.
Not only did the primary election returns fail to record the six votes of Ernest's best friends (not to mention those of his hundreds of other friends), but it failed to record the vote that Ernest cast for himself, it is reported. And the question that agitates him night and day is: "Did I double-cross myself?"
Miners in Fatal Fight
Over Charming Widow
(Preston News Service).
CLARKSBURG, W. Va. Nov. S.
James Fleming, a coal miner of Lumberport, was shot and instantly killed Thursday night at a dance during a quarrel with Mark Holliday, another miner. Mrs. Bessie McDonald, aged 21, an attractive widow, of Monesseeen, Pa., over whom the men are said to have quarreled, was arrested and brought to jail here as a material witness. State police and deputies are searching for Holliday, who is said to have fled on a freight train.
Liberian Awakening Seen by Vandercook
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The announced candidacy of several of our well-known politicians who aspire to represent this country in Liberia, Africa, in the capacity of minister resident and consul general, directs attention to a very interesting article by John W. Vandercook, a noted anthropologist, which appears in the October number of World's Work.
In paying his respects to the "aristocrats" who rule Liberia, and who are always resplendent in high hats, black broadcloth, yellow spats and kid gloves, the writer claims that they despise the natives with withering contempt. "Many of the men, one is informed, print after their name the degrees LL. D. Litt. D., Ph. D., M. A., and what-not conferred by one of the little mission colleges carrying its few pupils hardly through the highschool grades. Liberia is a nation without a single bookstore or a library." Concerning the business activities. Mr. Vandercook remarks. "In spite of the fact that citizenship and property ownership is forbidden white men, less than one per cent of all Liberian business is in the hands of Negroes, and that Broad street, the main residential boulevard in the City Of Monrovia, is unpaved
"Eat today, I think, Liberia stands on the verge of an awakening," continues the writer, "She has many men in public life and out of it, of high intelligence, sound ability, and fine patriotism. The educated native-born Africans are adding an increasingly important quota of prominent men to the world of Liberian affairs. The men born
in the forest are as a rule free from the superiorities and nonsense of the mission-bred and other spoiled oilgarches, who have had things their own way so long. Some day high hats and broadcloth, in fact and in significance, will be dumped into the bay and a cargo of white drill and overalls will be imported. Then a nation will be born."

Prominent Men Take Leading Part
Prominent Men Take Leading Part
Vice-President of Chicago Financial Institution Heads Move
Over sixty guests sat down at dinner last Thursday night in the tastefully decorated dining room of the new St. Mark's M. E. Church. The banquet was in the interest of the proposed Harlem National Bank. The Iter. J. W. Robinson, D. D., the pastor of the church, opened with prayer, after which Captain Joshua Cockburn introduced Edward A. Watts, the master of ceremonies. "If in Chicago," Mr. Watts said, "with five years' one bank can start with a capital of $200,000 and accumulate assets of upwards of $2,000,000, and another bank develop from a private to a State bank, certainly the Negroes of New York, where people are gathered together from all over the world, ought to take the lead. This is the most fertile field in the world for this purpose."
Some of the speakers were: Arthur A. Madison, Captain Joshua Cockburn, the Rev. Dr. Robinson, who is vice-president of a national bank with assets of $2,000,000; L. Q. Robertson, Julius M. Green, Mrs. Mary M. McLeod-Bethune, David Deles, president of the Belstrat Laundry, and William H. Ferris. The provisional officers of the proposed bank are: Dr. J. W. Robinson, chairman; Benjamin Alexander, secretary; Captain Joshua Cockburn, Julius M. Green, David

Popular Folders on Child Welfare
The Children's Bureau of the United States Department of Labor is engaged in the publication of a series of folders, which will give in popular form the results of the latest research in various phases of child welfare. Four folders in this series have recently come from the press. The first is entitled "Sunlight for Babies," and describes the technique of giving the baby daily sun baths. The second folder is called "Breast Feeding," and deals with the question of diet for the nursing and expectant mother, and with methods through which breast feeding may be made possible in most cases.
The third folder, "Community Care of Dependent, Delinquent and Handicapped Children," outlines in simple form the methods through which communities can assist children in need of special care.
"From School to Work," the fourth folder, tells the story of a "typical" American boy and girl living in an imaginary community which trains all its children for the work they are best able to do, and then helps them wisely to select the right job. Vocational counseling, tryout shops, trade schools, scholarships, continuation schools, and efficient administration of child-labor laws are stressed in this folder.
On the complaint of a woman who did not give her name, 21 men were arrested for gambling at 100 West 134th street. She said that her husband had been losing all of his money in gambling at the above address. The 21 men were arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in Night Court and were dismissed because of lack of evidence. Plainclothes men under Detective Kelvin of the Sixth Division made the arrest.

Texas Interracial Commission Meets
Texas Interracial Commission Meets
Awards Medals to Sheriffs Who Frustrated Mob Murders
HOUSTON, Tex., Nov. 8.—Education and a handful of courageous peace officers are checking mob violence in Texas, at least violence directed against the Negro. Along the border, however, there remains a breeding ground for lawlessness which flares frequently in the lynching and murder of Mexicans. These are the views of A. F. Cleveland, wealthy Houston business man who is chairman of the Texas Commission on Interracial Co-operation. The Commission met here Sunday. Negroes and whites sat in the meetings. Five officers were given bronze medals for courage in breaking up mobs. These men were: Sheriffs Hilton, Orange County; Marshall, Dallas County; Sanders, Harrison County; Hise, Brown County, and Constable Carton of Terrorist County.
The section of Sherif Marshall in firing into a mob at Dallas probably cost him his re-election. The medals were awarded by the National Commission of the organization, which includes: George B. Dealey, editor of the Dallas News; Gov. Henry Whitfield, of Mississippi; Gov. W. Martin, of Florida; Judge Hugh M. Dorssey, of At
ACID STOMACH IS DANGEROUS
Sufferers From Indigestion or Stomach Trouble CUT THIS OUT
"Stomach trouble, dyspepsia, indigestion, food fermentation, etc., are caused nine times in ten by chronic acid stomach, says a well-known authority.
Burning hydrochloric acid develops in the stomach at an alarming rate. The acid irritates and infuses the delicate stomach lining and often leads to gastritis, accommodation of gastric acid. Don't dose an acid stomach with pepin or artificial digestives that only give temporary relief from pain by driving the sour stomach into the intestines.
Instead, neutralize or sweeten your acid stomach after meals with a little vinegar or lemon juice, not only will the pain vanish but your meals will digest naturally. There is nothing better than Bisurated Magnesia, which is a safe and gentle stomach. It soaks up the harmful excess acid much as a sponge or blotting paper might and your stomach will be imprinted. Bisurated Magnesia can be obtained from any reliable drugstreet in earnest powder or tablet and is pleasant to use, is not a laxative and is not at all expensive.

Golden Brown Beauty Soap, as stated above, contains wonderful cleansing and beautifying properties. It lathers freely in hard or soft water and is perfumed with oil of Spanish almond, imparting delilah odor so much. You can buy it now in about 12,000 drug stores in United States and foreign countries. If the drugstreet in your community is one who values the patronage of Our Group he will not charge you more than the regular price of $25 per cake for Golden Brown Soap. If he hasn't it in stock he will have you call his jobber, and at the same time you will have Golden Brown Factual Ointment for $26 and Golden Brown Hair Dressing for $5c.
If your drugstreet cannot supply you, Madame Hightower will be able to have you write a letter personally giving your drugstreet's name so she can write to him. She will send you trial size packages of several of her preparations. Address Madame Hamile Hightower, care of Golden Brown Chemical Co., Tennyson, Tex.
election worker on the South Side. Four men, recognized by a Negro election worker as adherents of Al Capone, gang leader, entered a polling place, sized up the situation and left without creating any disturbance, but a call for a reinforced guard was sent out for fear of their return. Otherwise the election throughout the city was unusually quiet. The members of the Chicago Bar Association acted as non-partisan watchers at most of the polling places.

"I think the greatest vice of the young woman of today is the tendency to cheapen herself. Womanhood should be as on a pedestal. It should be something to be looked up to...not down at."
These are some of the replies to a questionnaire sent to one hundred young men by the Rev. F. D. Butchart, pastor of West Boulevard Christian Church, Cleveland, Ohio.
Although these replies concern the 1926 girl in Cleveland, are they applicable to girls everywhere?
It is interesting to note that none of the correspondents blamed any of the faults on the girls, but several of them criticized parents and institutions—T. E. B.

Household Hints
When there are children in the house, always keep the medicine cupboard locked and the key on a nail or hook out of their reach.
Stand a hot water bottle up on end in a bed and draw the bed clothes tightly over it. In this way the hot air circulates and warms the bed thoroughly.
When putting out a candle hold the light above you and then blow. If you do this the wick will not smoulder, and therefore the candle will be easily lighted again. The contrary will be the case if you blow downward.
It a few drops of ammonia are put into greasy pots and pans before hot water is poured into them, it will be much easier to clean them.
Clippings
Protecting Daddy.
Two small girls were out with their nurse. The doctor, who was passing, stopped and inquired how they were.
"I don't think we had better tell you," said one of them.
"Why not?" he asked.
"Well," she replied: "Daddy told us that when you called the other week and asked how we were it cost him-two guineas."

The Cook Says:---
Bacon, whether broiled or fried, should be cooked gently. This makes the difference between crisp and hardened bacon. If correctly cooked, the fat must be white when cold.
Save your celery tops, wash and dry them and place in the oven, turning them now and again. Store the leaves in an airtight tin and when celery is out of season they will be useful for flavoring soups.
When you peel onions, hold the onion in your left hand with the sprout end up and root down. Cut off the top and with a few strokes peel downward toward the root.
A burned saucepan should be filled with cold water to which a liberal allowance of soda has been added
Suggestions
Baked Pearls
Pure and core large pears and stuff with seeded dates, raisins or chopped nuts, with some tart marmalade and shredded cocoanut.
Place close together in a baking dish, cover bottom of pan with water and bake slowly until tender.
Hashed Brown Potatoes.
Two tablespoons oil, six boiled potatoes, salt and neper.
Chop potatoes, adding salt and pepper. Melt the fat in a frying pan and when hot add the potatoes. Press the potatoes down in the pan, firmly packing them in. Cook slowly until they are brown without stirring or turning. Then fold the potatoes over slowly like an omelet, packing closely together. Turn upside down on a hot platter.
**Celery and Apple Salad.**
One cup diced apple, one cup diced celery, French dressing, lettuce leaves, mayonnaise.
Fold together the apple and celery with the French dressing and serve on lettuce leaves. This mixture must not be allowed to stand long before serving.

Beauty Secrets
By
Mme.
Sara
Washington
With the coming of cold weather we suffer less from foot trouble than in the torrid months. But, however, the feet need constant attention because we generally overwork them. The majority of bread-winners are on their feet from morn until night and usually suffer from some foot ailment. Every home should have the simple knowledge of the care of these parts.
The greatest needs of the feet are cleanliness and comfortable fitting shoes. When buying shoes, buy them to fit your feet, and not your eye. High-heeled shoes and fancy shoes of all kinds are really a menace to the intellectual growth and building of character. No girl or boy can study, think and be of a sweet disposition whose feet are not comfortable.
Tired feet may be relieved by frequently changing shoes, a daily bath in warm water, an evening massage with vaseline, rubbing well into the soles of the feet, and careful selection and frequent change of hosiery.
The nails should be carefully trimmed each week, never allowing them to grow beyond the length of the toes. They grow more fast in

Mme. Washington will answer questions concerning beauty sent to her by readers of The Amsterdam News. Address Mme. Washington, The Amsterdam News, 2293 Seventh avenue, New York, N. Y. State request plainly and send stamped, addressed envelope.
Mrs. C. C.:—Your hair should be washed at least once every two weeks and between this time you should have an oil treatment. Give your hair one hundred strokes with the brush both morning and night. Irene:—I am sorry, but this column is not for the purpose of giving advice to the lovelorn. I would suggest, however, that you improve your appearance by keeping neat and clean, keep the back of your neck trimmed, your hair well groomed, avoid runover heels and look your best at all times and you are bound to attract the masculine eye.

Policeman Suspended; Charged With Shooting
Patrolman Rufus McClain, one of Jersey City's three colored policemen, was held without bail in the First Prescinct Court. Newark, Monday morning, charged with atrocious assault and battery. Court arraignment came as the aftermath of a shooting, in which the officer figured, early Monday morning. McClain was suspended by Police Chief Richard T. Batteraby, pending an investigation. According to the Newark authorities, early Monday morning he shot Benjamin DeMahon, who is the proprietor of a saloon at 447 Washington street, Newark, in the leg and thigh, following a row in the saloon.
The police version of the shooting is that McClain walked into the cafe which is owned by DeMaber and started an argument with him and that when DeMaber resented the remarks of the officer he became noisy. Ordered out by the proprietor, he whipped out his pistol and shot the saloon keeper, it is said.
Stabbed in Arm.
During an altercation at SS Barrych street, Sunday, Avis Smith, 115 Boyd street, was stabbed in the left arm by a man unknown to him. Smith was taken to the St. Barnabas Hospital where he is in a serious condition.
4 Things You Must Do for Colds
A cold calls for four helps, all at one time. And each should be the best. One must stop the cold, check the fever, open the bowels and tone the entire system. Do them all.
HILL'S combines these four effects. Each is accomplished by a modern discovery, the best man have found of its kind. One of the world's largest laboratories has embodied them all in one tablet, in a ray to bring no ill results.
HILLS is the perfect help for
polds. It is so efficient, so complete
that we paid 1,000,000 for it.
The use has grown and grown, until millions have come to employ it.
If you have a cold, start HILLS it once. By tomorrow you will see the results. You will never again rely on lesser help when you learn what HILLS can do.

TOMLIN TRIES AGAIN TO ESCAPE FROM JAIL
FREEHOLD, N. J., Nov. S.

Skinny Men and Women Garn 5
Pounds in 30 Days or Money Back
My Dear Friends:
After my attack of Flu I was thin, rundown and weak. I had a salt-他们是 a complexion, my cheeks were sink and I was continually troubled with gas on my stomach. I felt stuff and had lost my appetite. I had a short Mooly's Ced Liver Oll Comwound Tablets and decided to get them a trial. At once I began to pick up an appetite, my cheeks filled out and my complexion became healthy looking and I gained 15 pounds in six weeks and am very thankful for what McCoy's Ced Liver Oll Compound Tablets did for me.
Miss Alberta Rogers, 261 W. Corra Gorda St., Decatur, Ill.
To take on weight, grow strong and vigorous, to till out the hollows in cheeks and neck, try McCoy's Coal Day, and to keep skin dry. Ninety tablets - 69 cents at the druggist everywhere. If they don't give you wonderful help in 30 days, try a mineral inguine. But be sure and ask for McCoy's, the original and genuine.
Three Men Seized in Alleged Dope Ring
When headquarters detectives accidentally overhead a telephone conversation in a telephone booth in the Hill section, Sunday afternoon, it gave them impetus to an investigation which resulted in the arrest of three men and the arrest which may lead the police to the discovery and arrest of the most extensive "dope ring" in the history of the New Jersey police. Sergeant Rothenberg and Detectives Capodanova, Seery and Wenkowski made the arrests. They entered a drug store on Boyd street on Sunday morning and as they did so they heard a man. Later identified as Frank Johnson, 35. 160 Prince street, Newark, talking over the purchase and sale of drugs with a physician whose name has not been given out by the police.
As Johnson came out of the booth he was arrested by the officers and from information forced from him they were able to place two other men under arrest. One gave his name as Harry Allen, 21, 103 Prince street. The other man's identity was not revealed by the police:
Debate Capital Punishment.
The Bethany Baptist Church had a lively debate on Sunday night, when two of the members of the Sunday School, Horace Bunday and Arthur Simpson, debated the question of capital punishment. Mr. Bunday took the affirmative, while Mr. Simpson took the negative side of the question.

The number of our readers learning of the "JOY" that comes from using Real ALAGA Cane Syrup with Hot Cakes and Hot Biscuits is ever increasing. They have also learned that Candy, Pumpkin Pies, Cookies, etc. "fit for a "King"" made with ALAGA Cane Syrup.
Regular shipments are now being received, right from where the Sugar Cane grows, to meet the rapidly increasing demand.
ALAGA Cane Syrup is the entire juice of the Sugar Cane plant boiled down to syrup, with nothing added, except a very small portion of corn syrup to prevent sugaring in the can.
Yes! It is higher than ordinary syrups, but not half as expensive as maple syrup; whereas it is among the choicest of table and fancy baking syrups. Nevertheless, it has a flavor all its own.
Ask your grocery for the Real ALAGA Cane Syrup. If he does not have it the following stores can answer you till his shipment arrives:

Cranberry Mold
4 full cups (1 quart) cranberries. 1 level cup boiling water, 2 level cups granulated sugar. (May bespiced with 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon or clove, or both mixed if liked.) Place berries in enamel saucepan with 1 cup boiling water and simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. When berries are reduced to a soft pulp, strain through as fine a sieve as possible. To this hot pulp add 2 cups sugar and return to saucepan. Sir, then boil rapidly for from 5 to 8 minutes—until a spoon of the mass "jells" as it droops away from the spoon. Turn at once into a wetted glass or crockery mold. Chill.

Nazarene Congregational Church Secures Splendid Edifice in Brooklyn
Nazarene Congregational Church Secures Splendid Edifice in Brooklyn
Chairman of Building Committee and Former International Secretary of Young Men's Christian Association Complimented for Efficient Handling of Purchase
The Nazarene Congregational Church, Herkimer street and Troy avenue, Brooklyn, has just negotiated the purchase of the Church of Our Father, at the corner of Grand avenue and Leiferts place, for the sum of $117,500, considerably less than the original price at which it was first offered.
The plant purchased consists of a church building, community house and parsonage. The church itself is perhaps the finest piece of church architecture in the borough, is of Philadelphia pressed brick, and the Byzantine style of church architecture, the spire reaching one hundred feet above the pavement. The organ is one of the best in Brooklyn, and the windows lend much beauty to the auditorium, which seats about 1,000 people. The community house consists of Sunday school rooms, ladies' parlor, kitchen and dining room. The heating is by steam, and the building is electrically lighted. The parsonage, which stands hard by, is a three-story brownstone structure with modern equipment.

The whole plant is admirably located for the kind of community center the church has been seeking. It is strategically located for the 75,000 colored people in Brooklyn, and is accessible from half a dozen car lines, being at the Grand avenue station of the Fulton Elevated Railway. It is near the in-treatment of Grand, Fulton, Purnam avenues, and for natural focus for assembling the people, the majority of the fact that the membership of this church is drawn from all parts of the borough, Jamaica, Corona, Jersey City, Harlem and the Bronx, the new location is much more convenient than the former.
The Building Committee is fortunate in having as its chairman Dr. J. E. Moorland, former international Secretary of the V. M. C. A., and who has had wide experience in building projects. Other members of the committee include some members of the men of Brooklyn; N. D. Johnson, S. C. Hudnell, Warner James, W. H. Taylor, A. H. Sessom, Stephen Brooks, Jesse Webster and H. H. Procter. This committee performed the extraordinary feat of negotiating the purchase without a broker so that there are no commissions to be paid. The committee was not only unanimously received but a vote of thanks given the committee for its work. The meeting closed with a love feast and a social.
In the efforts of the church to secure an adequate church community center it has secured the goodwill of the leading people of both races in the community. An advisory committee of the following well known citizens is co-operating in the project: Dr. S. Parkes Cedman, chairman; Dr. Lewis T. McGowan; Dr. Robert P. Hagel, Dr. Fritz Beltrun, Dr. J. Stanley Durke, Mr. E. P. Maynard of the Brooklyn Trust Co. Mr. Pierpont Davenport and Dr. Charles E. Jefferson.

A twofold triumph was scored at the historic Bridge Street A. M. E. Church on Thursday evening. November 4, when the dramatic cantata, Japhnia and His Daughter', was given there. It was twofold because the young people of the church who were the participants surprised everyone by their wonderful singing and acting under W. Arthur Pollock, the director.

Blackman, camp guards; Saddle Lee, Jephtha's daughter: Gwendolyn Walker, Adah; Blanche Williams, Amom; Azalee Plyler, angel; Pauline Carrier, Garwee Parham, Massam Creemer and Louise Waters took the part of Jewish midwives.
The principals were supported by a chorus of fifty voices. The chorus work won much favorable comment from the vast throng of colored and white people present at Dickey, n pupil of Dr. Melville Charlton. The pianists were Misses Lucille Gromer and Miriam Rivens. Three violinists added to the beauty of the music.

sary evil" connected with getting what you want from a successful organization like that—and that is, that they who do the job will have to be big men—if they are not big men to start with, they become big men in the very act of doing these things. And so we are confronted with the confounded dilemma: Either we have to leave the big thing undone, or we have to develop big men in the doing of the big things. This is an awful choice for one who is little; either he has to accept the big men or do without the big achievement. That's just one of those awful cussed compensations of human life—and to a little fellow like me it would be torture; if it had not been for the accident that, when nature made me up, she forgot and left out something—she neglected to mix in the capacity for jealousy and envy of others. But for that accident, that N. A. A. C. P. would fairly get my little goat.
Asiatic Attitude Toward Africans Changing
Writing for the "Southern Workman" on the interesting subject of the "Changing Asiatic Attitude Towards Africans". St. Nilah Sighh of India expresses the opinion that the gulf which in the past has divided the peoples of Asia from the peoples of Africa is being bridged, and that the progress made in this direction during the last quarter of a century has been great. He claims that the struggles which emigrants from India have had in various parts of Africa with the white races which dominate those parts have especially served to bring home the community of interest which exists between colored people, whether they belong to Asia or Africa
Referring to the British educational policy in Africa and commenting upon the industrial system as taught at Hampton and Tuskegee, the writer says, "Some British administrators cherish the belief that by giving 'useful' education in contradistinction to 'liberal' education to the native, they can prevent him from aspiring to freedom and thereby insure against the rise of political movements in South Africa like those which modern education has generated in India and other Asiatic countries. These officials will soon discover their mistake. As Hampton and Tuskegee have proved, no education implants the desire for freedom in the human breast quite so strongly as a system which enables an individual to become economically independent."
As a result of his travel and study the conclusion is reached that the time for the general awakening of the African peoples is not far off, and that its arrival is being hastened by the struggle for freedom in which the various Asiatic races are engaged. "And as that awakening comes to Asiatics," declares this Indian student of racial conditions, "the fellowship between them and the Africans will grow in intensity."
ROOSEVELT TO LEAD AFRICAN EXPEDITION PROVIDENCE, R. I., Nov. S.—A de Oliviera Aguas, Portuguese Consul here, announced last week that Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, who spent several months in exploration in Central Asia last year, is planning a scientific tour in South Africa.
Consul Aguas, who is well versed in Portugal's possessions in Africa, has recently conferred with Colonel Roosevelt in New York, discussing routes. The expedition will probably cross the continent, starting from Portuguese East Africa and ending its journey at Portuguese West Africa. Colonel Roosevelt will lead the expedition and will be accompanied by a large staff of geologists, biologists, botanists, taxidermists and other scientists.

United States Bureau Adopts Eight-Inch Above Knee Standard
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.—American women hereafter will have stockings that reach about eight inches above the knee. Such is the new standard length announced by the United States Bureau of Standards.
Scientific experiments by Government experts have resulted in standardizing the length of all women's hosiery at 27.5 inches from heel to top. This stocking will come eight inches above the knee of a woman five feet six inches tall and weighing 130 pounds, it was stated at the bureau.
Women's hosiery at present runs from 25 to 29½ inches. Federal investigators found that manufacturers had a tendency to "skimp" the length of stockings when making small sizes, and measured 14,400 pairs of women's hosiery before adopting a standard length.
No attempt was made to set a width for women's stockings at the ankle, knee, calf or top. The standard length hosiery can be adjusted by drawing up the tops to be comfortable on any shape of leg. E. N. Schonke, research associate at the bureau, claims.
Stockings under the new mode can be worn with supporters from the hips, circular band garters or as roll tops, it was pointed out.
Under the new standard men's hosiery will be from 14 to 14.1 inches long, while children's stockings will range from 15 to 26.5 inches
Tight Garters.
Simultaneously with the announcement on hosiery standard lengths, the Public Health Service issued a warning against band garters that restrict circulation.
"Constriction along the legs is bad, whether the obstruction is below or above the knee." Surgeon General Cummings said. "Tight garters and rubber bands around the legs cause cold feet and varicose veins."

Relief Mortgage Corp. Working on Safe Ground
The Relief Mortgage Corporation, which obtained a charter from the State of New York to conduct a real estate mortgage business in September of 1925, is, seemingly, satisfied to work along conservative business lines. The directors are: Wellesley B. Richards, president; O. Montrose Thompson, vicepresident; Henry S. Warner, treasurer; Eustace V. Dench, secretary, and John O. Matthews, second vicepresident. Two of their working principles stand out prominently and invite the confidence of the stockholders. First, it is vouchsafed that there will be no salaried management until earnings permit, and, second, paid-in capital is not to be used for expenses.
Operations for the fiscal year ending October, 1926, were successful. The corporation has earned over 15 per cent on capital paid in and will declare a dividend of 6 per cent payable in December, besides providing a substantial sinking fund reserve for the ensuing year.
The aim of the directors is to develop a financial institution worthy of the needs of the district, with resources equal to, and, in many cages superior to, that of a bank, to actually prevent foreclosures where re-financing can be safely exercised and to assist prospective buyers in purchasing and keeping their homes.

WHEN HAIR FALLS-YOUTH FADES
What is more pitiful than to see a young man suddenly begin to look old and get out of step with his young friends?
One is you
—but both
One is young; it —but both are
One is young; the other old but both are the same age!
AGE is not a matter of how many years you have lived but how old you look. A bald head is the mark of declining years. When hair falls, youth fades. When your comb holds falling hairs and your forehead becomes higher and higher, you've had your warning! Don't wait another day. Even if all other remedies have failed, there is still hope—for Sergeant's Mange Medicine has been known for fifty years as the most effective treatment for hair and scalp. It rids the scalp of dandruff—but more than that it invigorates the scalp, cleans it, promotes blood circulation and removes the causes of falling hair. It gives the hair itself

IRA REID ADDRESSES
PAPER BOX STRIKERS
Ira D. Reid, industrial secretary
of the New Urban League, addressed
a mass meeting of striking
paperbox workers in the Church of
All Nations Wednesday afternoon
on the relation of Negro workers
to the strike. He said that he
himself had been a member of the
Melders' Union and two railway
unions during strikes and that his
experience had taught him that
union organization is necessary for
the protection of the Negro in industry.
"If your union did not accept Negroes as members, I could not come before you and say that I was with you in your fight," declared Mr. Reid. "But your union does have more than fifty colored members, many of whom are active in the strike. For that reason I say: I wish you all success and I hope that any colored workers who are scabbing on you will cease doing so and join your ranks. Union and solidarity of all workers regardless of race or color are indispensable for the progress of the working class as a whole." Algernon Lee, director of the Rand School of Social Science, Bertram D. Wolfe, director of the Workers' School, and Clarence Miller of the Young Workers' League, also spoke.

Cleveland School! Board Ignore Citizens' Petition
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nov. S.—Announcement of the election of James R. Mills, district sales manager of the Carnegie Steel Company, by the present members of the School Board at their meeting on Monday, Nov. 1, to the post left vacant on the Board of Education of the City of Cleveland through the death of Mrs. Mary C. Sanford, is regarded more or less as a rebuff by a large group of colored citizens who are interested in the selection of one of their number as a member of the board. Displeasure by colored citizens, it is said, is not caused particularly by the election of Mills, but is the result of a belief that little or no consideration was given the petitions directed to the Board of Education.
Petitioners to the Board of Education who sponsored the idea of having representation on the Board of Education have to this date received no formal acknowledgment by the board of the receipt of their petitions.

BestAmusementPages in Greater New York "SOAP BOX" ORATOR'S STATEMENT Bum Eulogy Weakens His Presentation Edited by Romeo L. Dougherty
Prof. Williams, Who Took Stump for Negro Operators, Submits Findings
And Discloses That He Was Actuated by a Desire to Drive What He Calls a Disturbing Element From the Community—Says Nothing of Fight Waged by This Paper to Force Union to Admit Negroes
Prompted by what we had to say in our last issue anent, the motion picture operators, Professor S. K. Williams has come through with the long looked for statement. We leave it to our readers to again look over the statement as made by Local 306 and that which is being presented today by the learned professor.
We have nothing to say in this matter, except to pull the professor up short on one part of what he has submitted and which will be found subjoined to his reply. What we have to say is to preclude any more statements coming from those who are in a position to know things touching on and appertaining to the Lafayette from the days when John Leubie Hill established a record with his "Dark-town Follies", which has never been duplicated.
YEN
We move, then, to the statement of Professor Williams, which follows:
"My interest in the present difficulty at the Laffayette Theatre was aroused some time early in September, when several motion picture operators, headed by Tom Johnson, approached me with the statements that a group of colored men had been taken into the Motion Picture Operators' Union; that under the union regulations they would be able to improve their condition to the extent of having shirts they were wearing and pay. They informed me that the Laffayette Theatre refused to sign a contract with the union.
"After a short interview with Mr. Brecher at the Lafayette Theatre I gave my support to these men and made several stump speeches championing their cause. I was on one occasion 'checkled' by Mr. Schiffman and subsequently went to the Lafayette Theatre to get in full the theatre's side of the story. What I learned was more than a surprise to me. My investigations subsequent to my interview with Mr. Schiffman revealed the following:
"(1) Up to last May the colored men had been barred from the unison entirely and, after some pressure, a proposition was made to them that they would be permitted to become members of the Union. (2) That, in the meant of the fact, the union finally decided to admit these men only because they feared that, when the union contracts expired in September, 192, the colored men would become 'strikebreakers.'"
(3) That, although a strike was declared against a group of theatres controlled by Mr. Brecher, picketing, distribution of circulations, street speeches, etc., were confined only to the Lafayette Theatre. In a word, the colored men who had been members of the union for only a few weeks were made to carry on an unpleasant struggle against the management of the Lafayette Theatre, whom, they all admitted, had for years past treated them in a fair and satisfactory manner. (4) That the statement made by the union chief works in many unpleasant unloading, and that as a matter of fact, the Lafayette Theatre had paid a salary of $60 a week for an eight-hour day to the colored chief operator and had provided the chief operator with a satisfactory relief.
"My visit to union headquarters as reported in your paper, was made solely out of a desire to remove a disturbing element from our community, and only after I had learned that the management of the Lafayette Theatre had consented to accept the union terms, in spite of the fact that they sided themselves with that the union required to permit the colored men to return to their work because Mr. Brecher would not sign contracts in other sections of the city.
"The union's position in this case seems absolutely indefensible. Even if there are any who believe that it is fair for a working man to demand a five-hour working day, certainly there can be no reason for using this community and this handful of colored men to force the management of the Lafayette Theatre to accede to its demands in white sections of the city. It would have been a fairer and wiser thing to have confined the fight to those theatres where Mr. Brecher refused to sign contract with a disliked work of picking be done by men who have been members of the union for years and who have been benefiting from the improvements the union claims it has secured for these men.
"It has always appeared to me that the management of the Lafayette Theatre has taken a fair stand in every matter arising from this difficulty, and the fact that the pub has continued to pack the theae daily is, to my mind, a sufficient answer to what the community thinks of the Lafayette Theatre. After all, we must not forget that the present management has improved and disillusioned the Lafayette Theatre and that it is urging the lobby and hall of Harlem motion picture and musical comedy entertainment which is not equalled elsewhere in the city.
"I have been immeasurably surprised at the numerous expressions of satisfaction which have come from producers, actors and patrons
over the fair conduct of the management of this theatre, and my investigation into the operators' difficulty, as described above, leaves me with but the one thought, that a concerted effort ought to be made to have the union transfer their fight elsewhere and obviate what might be of embarrassing the Lafayette. "The Lafayette Theatre is an institution in Harlem and, from what I can gather from members of the race connected therewith, I am satisfied that the best thing that the colored operators can do, is to let the union officials pitch their battles elsewhere, as alessars, Brecher and Schiffman, director and man of the Theatre have met all the demands of the colored operators. We should not allow Harlem to be the battleground for Broadway.

The Editor Replies
Professor Williams has submitted what we believe our readers will admit is a diminished statement, but which, we also believe, will be immeasurably weakened by at least one thing in said statement. We have done much more and all that we intend to do to keep up the interest in a battle that is apparently winning, but it would be impossible to let one part of Professor Williams' statement go unchallenged. We do not question any claims made in the investigation which he conducted. We do not question what he has done to the matter in hand, but we do question and rise to remark, with all the emphasis at our command, on that part of his article wherein he states that "the present management has improved and dignified the Lafayette Theatre."
On the face of our attempt to do full justice to Mr. Schiffman, general manager of the Brecher interests, we do not believe that any person will question our sincerity when we say that this is no belated attempt to strike back at those declaring themselves as being willing, as being friends while they are among us.
Professor Williams has allowed himself to overdo this thing in that little effusion wherein he tries to tell this community, which has known the Lafayette Theatre from the first day Martinson and Nibur, former liquor dealers of Lenox avenue, threw open its doors to our public, that under the present management the house has improved. What is now dignified. What Dr. Wilson would have said is that the present management is making a monetary success where Shapiro, and, possibly, the Coleman brothers, failed.
The crowds patronizing the Lafayette Theatre cannot by any stretch of the imagination be compared to that enthusiastic clientele which patronized the house in the days when Robert Levy, at the head of the Quality Amusement Corporation, aroused a new interest among the leading people here in the Negro theatre. Perhaps Professor William Smith was enough to recall that dignity, as it is known, held full sway at this house in those days, and that, because a higher class of entertainment was being offered. In writing of the theatre in Philadelphia I do not believe that any person would be foolhardy enough to associate dignity with the Standard Theatre. yet the Lafayette is today in a class with the Standard. For that reason John T. Gibson purchased the Dunbar Theatre, with an idea of presenting a higher form of entertainment at the house on the corner of Broad and Lombard streets and, if he was forced to return to the same form of entertainment as holds good at the Standard, it was because Philip Gibson was trying to come from that atmosphere that first made it possible for him to run successfully the old Northpole, a place in the early days in the same class with the old Nickelote, at which "Trenchy" Elmore gave a correct imitation of a true cinder barr.
Walton and Morganstan maintained that same dignity, as did the other members, in half of the Quality Amusement Corporation, then under the gun-

MR. FRANK SCHIFFMAN.
"For the past five years or so I have tried by my efforts here to show a friendly spirit to those with whom I have been brought into contact in the community," said Mr. Frank Schifman, general manager of the Lafayette, to us the other night. "and I am sorry to say that there are times when I feel that my efforts have been in vain."
There was a certain seriousness about this young man who has stood up and smiled at us, and has hated battles that has ever been waged in the theatrical circles in this section. We wonder. And we are still wondering. To such an extent it is our intention to look deeper into Mr. Schifman's assertion.
We admit that the earnestness with which he said those words to us made a bigger impression than anything said during the fight between the Brecher Intrests and the Motion Picture Operators. It goes without saying that our every move shows that we have been and are for the colored boys and that we have been to deny this same Schiffman justice when the seriousness of his plaint strikes a responsive chord.
We must plumb the depths of this feeling and find out if it reaches down to the bottom of his heart, and if we think we find it so, we believe he will have good reason to say that right or wrong he can at least try to be fair. We have held to what we have considered was the right, and would brook no interference in all these weeks. We do not want to harm him or to harm to unbend and to try to into the heart or this man who so seriously tells us that he hopes to surround himself with friends here. We doubted this in the past, but one never will bring. Read us next week.
oral management of Edward C. Brown. With the coming of the Coleman brothers there came a change in the clientele of the house, and when the Brecher people took full charge a complete change was noted and, while many used to boast of the superior atmosphere of the Lafayette to the Lincoln Theatre, we do not believe that any person laying claim to common-sense would dare say that the Lafayette surpasses the Lincoln in any way by virtue of any superior atmosphere which obtains there.
If we must deal with nothing but the truth, let us handle it in the only way possible and attempt no "kidding" of the Brecher people. Mr. Schiffman has found the kind of shows which carry a strong appeal to a certain class of people, but it was at the expense of that high-class kind of patronage which used to pack the Lafayette to the doors when the drama held sway. We speak of the time when splendid musical comedies and dramas came into the house and one could find the elite of colored Harlem there. The coming of the revues has meant more money into the box office, and still scoring the success of which Mr. Schiffman and his associates are fully deserving in lieu of the monies they have invested in the house, but let no one try to kid the intelligent members or infer that they want to sack or infer that the Lafayette today enjoys the dignity which it boasted when Negroes were rising to great heights in commendable things which would never force the conservative New York Age to the kind of front-page article which appeared in Mr. Moore's paper last week.
Can the burlesque houses of this city be compared to those high-class places where the elite among the whites and enjoyment nightly? Then stop, look, listen and learn of the Lafayette Theatre before you rush into print with that which will cause rancous laughter to resound in homes where live those fully acquainted with the change which has come upon us since the coming of a day which has given the Pittsburgh Courter reason for launching a questionable ament act which he questioned that should make even such as Professor Williams think while trying to lead black people under the high-sounding title of National Director, National Negro Centre Political Party, a political party without enough influence to get the professor a chance to speak for the party he represents in the heat of a political campaign.

"7th Avenue and Broadway" at the Lafayette
The Lafayette Theatre will next week present one of those shows which have come to be known as black and white combinations, when "With Avenue and Broadway" is offered at the well-known house. Not since the days when the regime of the Coleman brothers was being brought to an end has a show of this kind played here. Truth to tell, it has not been often that black and white combinations have been seen in colored houses, and this is a departure that will perhaps bring a novelty that will draw well. Of course, we do not judge this by the showing led by that charming person Miss. Miss. Loane, but since the revue form of entertainment seemed to have made inroads and success has been the reward, the changing times should see bumper houses at the Lafayette, if both ends of the entertainment surpass the venture by the Coleman brothers.
The Roosevelt Theatre
A close-up glimpse of the side of college life that has nothing to do with studies, but a lot to do with the general education offered in an institution of higher learning, is shown in B. P. Schulberg's newest screen play, "The Plastic Age," which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre next Saturday, Sunday and Monday. What do the students do during their spare time? This question has caused a lot of worry for interested parents. Some of the things that they might do are presented interestingly in the Schulberg picture. It is an adaptation of Percy Marks' lively novel of college life and youth in general, directed by Wesley Ruggles.

The Lincoln Theatre
One of the most delightful, well-balanced, easy-moving comedies the screen has offered for a long time is "The Waning Sex" the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture starring Norma Shearer, which opens at the Lincoln Theatre Thursday, with Conrad Nakel as leading man.
Two girls and a man are the focal points of the plot. One of the girls wants him but doesn't love him, the other, the heroine, him but doesn't want him because not quite sure of her own mind.
The menace in this case is the girl who wants him but doesn't love him. She plots against him. He is invited to her home for dinner and while she an unfortunate mishap deprives him of his trousers, a compromising situation and just what the girl intended it to be.
All of the fair plotter's wiles are punctured, however, by the cleverness of her rival, and her frustration is just as complete and as satisfying as if she were the conventional male villain of the story.

Jack Dempsey Drops In and Recalls the Happy Days
He Was at the Old Lincoln in the Days When 'Frenchy' Held Sway
"Have times changed in Harlem?" was asked Jack Dempsey recently. Jack, who was formerly manager of the Lincoln Theatre, surely knows, if anyone does. He was paying us a casual visit and we grasped the opportunity to get his views, "Well," he remarked, "they certainly have. No doubt there are a good many that remember the old days in 1909, when we had to give away prizes to get the folks to come in."
"We gave away anything from a needle to a haystack. No vanderbilt, short pictures, admission. I meant mathews. It cents at night in place of the pretentious improp structure the Lincoln now is; it was nothing but a wooden building which looked as if a good gust of wind would blow it away.
"Well, I remember one time when the roof was being reinforced or a necessary skylight a heavy shower came up and, there being covering on the roof, the water pooled in until it was about a foot high, when we let the holes in the door to let the water run into the cellar.
"Frenchy was manager in those days and Mrs. Downs, the present owner, had acquired the house a short time previous. She was the boss.
"The Crescent Theatre came about 1911, which caused the Lincoln to build a stage and put on vaudelle; but prices did not go up, although we gave four vaudelle arts and sometimes a live, but the policy certainly was success for.
"It was a common occurrence to open at 1:45 P. M. and at 2 P. M. could not admit any more, such as Moore and Jenkins, Tim and Hester Moore, Williams and Stevens, Buster and Rockpile always packing the house. Eddie

PUBLIC EAGER FOR URBAN LEAGUE BALL "Hey, Hey" Off to Splendid Start at Lafayette
Hunter's first effort was tried out in the old Lincoln. He and Tom Chappelle put on 'Subway Sal' 'Ruba' Lee, now dead, played Sal. It certainly was a riot. I think Hunter's next was the 'Midnight Hour', another short sketch, but a big success. I saw Hunter's new act lately and he will stick to the rhythm. I notice.
"How many of you can remember the big fire in 134th street, when so many were rendered homeless, when the Lincoln throw its doors open and served hot coffee and gave shelter for the night, also supplied them later with clothing? It was charities of this kind that enforced the Lincoln to the public. We also ran a ball under the name of the 'Frenchy' Sal, a casino. We had a cakewalk led by Pickantiny Hill and Clarice Wright.
"They got first honors, which they undoubtedly deserved. When Johnson beat Jeffries 'Frenchy' was giving out the returns, and when he announced that Jack Johnson had won in the 12th round, pandemonium broke loose. Doors were ripped from the hinges and the mob ran out in 133th street to celebrate. When the doors gave way, We had on Moors and Jenkins, Tim and Hester Moore, Williams and Stevens, and a single novelty got. With this show the crowd at times was out on the car tracks. Something had to give that week, and it was the doors, and I sometimes think a number of my friends saved their nickels, as they got in. Yes." mused a Jack, certainly put in good order. He or she or both sung of "The Fountain Melody." I believe Ora is dead now, but she was an artist.
"There was Jeff De Mont and his famous banjo; Ed Pattie singing 'Next Week, Some Time, but Not Now.' Williams and Stevens used to stay as many as sixteen weeks straight, also Tim and Hester Moore for the same time putting stock. When I first want the Lincoln there were three number white plates, unnumbering the neighborhood was not quite as densely populated by colored folks as it is now.
"There was another small movie house on Fifth avenue, between 153th street and 136th street, mostly patronized by whites. There were frequent clashes between the boys of both races. At that time, Homoe. The Amsterdam. News was a baby, but the healthy one the doctor. Well, I got to be on my way and if I think of anything else I will let you know. Yes," said Jack, "those were the happy days."
Mme. Garvey's Show a Hit at the Laiayette
The much heralded musical comedy, "Hey! Hey!" produced by Mrs. Amy Ashwary-Garvey, first wife and helper of Marcus Garvey, the self-styled "President of the African Republic," opened at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday, Nov. 8. The new show is all that it was advertised to be.
The plot is centered about the desires of Sam and George to find their love-mates by traveling to Africa to match the rib from which their woman was made. And having been thrown out of their own homes by their wives, they are more determined than ever to find their soulmates. In Africa they finally match the rib, but the women who possessed them are their wives, who who preceded them to Africa.
Sam Manning and George McClennon as the two dissatisfied husbands are certainly a scream. Manning's West Indian dialect keeps the house laughing all of the time. Their ejection from their homes and their subsequent trip to Africa furnishes a delightful plot, which many of the present day comedies lack.
Alberta Pryme and Evelyn Ray are the songsters of the show and each is an artist. Miss Pryme's "Ain't No Good in the Best of Men Nowadays" and Miss Ray's "Gotta Know How to Love" were well received. Miss Pryme is supported in several of her numbers by Clarence Beasley, who has a pleasing tenor voice. Miss Ray's numbers were rendered with the aid of the chorus.
The dancing of the chorus was a feature of the show. The specialties were very amusing and entertaining.
Mrs. Garvey's first venture into the theatrical profession seems to be a success. If "Hey! Hey!" is as well received in its subsequent performances, and there is little doubt that it will be, the first wife of Marcus Garvey is on her way to gain additional laurels.
The Douglas Theatre
For their production of "Across the Pacific" starring Monte Blue and directed by Roy Del Ruth, Warner Bros. reproduced a large section of the city of Manila and two poles of tropical shore line.
With this achievement the actual landscaping and altering of the surface of the earth itself, predicted some years ago by a movie seer, has come to pass. "Across the Pacific" is a method example spectacle dealing in epiphora with the swooping epiphora incited and aguinaldo in the Philippine islands which followed the Spanish American War.
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 10, 1926
MR. FLOYD CALVIN, of the Pittsburgh Courier, in a very landable attempt, to no doubt keep alive interest in the theatrical world to which all our journalists seem to have a leaming, went out and dignified what is being presented on our stage by calling it the easy-sounding name of NUDITY.
VULGARITY and stark near-nakedness and all that goes with it have been distilled to the plains where comparisons are being made with art, which has never been nothing abusive so far as we have witnessed in these sundown temples of theatric entertainment.
AND under the guise of "the public wants it" we find producers and managers pulling this mantle of consolation over themselves to corner the dollar by the same means used in certain other avenues of endeavor which that true thing called society will ever be found putting its stamp of disapproval upon it. If we should judge by the promenag- which would go to a wavy house we can readily assume that "the public wants it," but society has decreed that it is for the public good that such places are looked upon with disfavor.
THREE claims are in the same class made by those Negro hating football players refusing to allow that great athlete, Sol Butler, to appear in a big game here recently. The crackers claimed that the public would not stand for it, but it is such an apparent lie we sometimes wonder why men supposedly of high attainments and learning would find so lame an excuse. Butler's appearance in that game would have added zest to it. On the reverse, we weaken this base claim in our view to over the managers in garnering their dolkers. By their line of argument one would naturally suppose, then, that the days of the return of clean offerings are long since gone and will never return.
WHICH caused us to emit a guttural chuckle when well-meaning but misguided friends of all that's wholesome in the theatre saw fit to raise a howl because of certain things being done in Connell's Revue, which appeared at the Lafayette Theatre last week. We wonder if these same people ever witnessed the dance of a colored Princess in same house. If those youngomen in Connell's Revue can do any more than this Princess did then it is time for those not patronizing the house to make a hasty return to see this new era which they would have us believe came with the gallivanting of last week.
HOWEVER, it is good to note that the answers to Mr. Calvin's question auditory brought replies which prove conclusively that we have been right on the stand we have taken from time to time forced us to emit this little ditty which covers better than anything else we can think of the conditions as we see them:
Music and the art:
Band lover the vulgar will:
And the erite when emphatic:
Both with rage imposters fill.
How in the name of all that's holy did those shows of yesteryear, reaching down to the craze for "Shuffle Along" and "Runnin' Wild," ever reach the goal of success without the least semblance of vulgarity or suggestiveness? Today we attribute the success of certain producers to their artistic trend in the nude, hence we want to know to what can be attributed the successes of the past without this thing which they tell us is so necessary.
THE child wants that which it is denied. Regory, are we still the child-like race we are told we are, with managers and producers spoiling us by giving us what we want? Good heavens, what is it they toned down in Connie's inn Funve before they allow us to people to view it? Phew! We show the world give thanks for the thoughtfulness and not for not letting us gaze upon those things which the New York Apple of last week intimated is being done for the whites patronizing the inn. Why try to whisper of The Jana when in the thirties of our own Harlem we are reproducing for the edification of both whites and colored those things of the West.
THE few defenders of this Seventh avenue art of the new day will tell you that the female form is good to look upon. Right. Few are who would deny this, but when that form start gyrations that bring as to the meaning, what then? Usually in art we do not doubt beautiful walzers lead us to gyrations of things beautiful, while gazing upon a sculpture form in diaphanous costume, but if you call island—presented behind white sheets when we were a boy—to the accompaniment of "Do That Thing," then art is entirely different to what they have been trying to lead generation after generation to believe. There are certain things which we do in believing that the public seem to be very desirous of having, but for that public they good society and the law have raised barriers.
In another part of today's paper we would direct attention to the picture and article of W. Rollo Wilson, whose column in the Pittsburgh Counter has made a distinction of understanding figure in the world of sport. Perhaps a position to judge fully of the merits of those of our journalists, still, in the years gone by, we do not think that we have been far wrong in singling out those in our line standing behind the theatre. With Lester A. Walton and they have occasion to write shiled the accounts of themselves in the theatre, we have W. Rollo Wilson as the outspoken character in sport writing and opinion. True, none of these honesty and merits in their callings, and it is good to know that occupy in the minds of their fellow artists an esteem which the feasious and malicious cannot break down. We judge them from their writings which, we believe, the impartial will admit stand
UNDER the circumstances we are naturally directed to this month's contribution of that great satirist writing under the caption of "Shirts and Darts" in the Messenger Magazine and who answers to the name of George Schuyler. To him is allotted the task of writing out the once every month to every line of the story, and he believes should provide the award for said person's contribution to the Nation. As we played a part in bringing forth from the present owner of the prize, which are now blazed upon history's scroll by directing attention to the contest, we consider it our duty to let us know of the final chapter of an historic episode in the American, which will strike its full intelligent public:
in the renowned Tattler, whose name is "What I am most interested about at this time is my own reputation,"
and "I have been unsucciled."
which all the city has completed this especial mission, the delegation returns to the street, the procession is dismissed in true military style, and all repair to the nearest "blind pig," where liquid refreshments are quitted amid gales of gangrana laughter."

The Boys That Were "Over There" Will Celebrate Over Here Nov. 11
The Savoy Ballroom announces a tremendous patriotic celebration for Armistice Day, Thursday, November 11. There will be a special Armistice Day matinee beginning at 3 P. M., which will include many cheerful features, entirely new to its large following of friends.
The Victory Ball, which takes place in the evening of the same day has for its leading attraction the famous hand of the 369th Regiment and the management has invited the officers and men of that heroic organization to be their guests for the evening.
Appropriate decorations interspersed with the men in khaki will serve to remind you of the days of 1917 and 1918 when the boys so gallantly marched to the front, hands playing, flags waving, when there were more thrills crowded into one day than at any time in the past. The management of the Savoy Ballroom plans to entertain its guests on Armistice Day in lavish manner, believing inasmuch as so many of the exsoldiers will be here, that they are deserving of a celebration that will equal that never-to-be forgotten trenzted celebration the day the Armistice was signed. November 11, 1918. The Armistice Day celebration will take place to all exsoldiers, their wives, sweethearts, and mothers of exsoldiers and all are urged to attend what promise is to be one of Savoy's most delightful occasions.

Auxiliary Ball at Manhattan Casino — Costume and Fancy Dress Afair — Boxes All Sold
The stage is all set and everything in readiness for the fancy dress and costume ball of the New York Urban League, which is being presented under the auspices of the ladies' auxiliary at the Manhattan Casino the coming Friday evening.
For the past few weeks the ladies have given their undivided attention to this big affair and, from reports in hand, it is safe to predict that success with a great, big S will be the result of their efforts.
If past performances count for anything, prospective patrons of the coming gala social event can but look back to the previous affairs staged for the benefit of this organization. Music for the big night will be furnished by John C. Smith and his orchestra, which adds to the attractiveness of the dance. The boxes were sold shortly after the announcement of the date of the ball, which is a forecast of what to expect when the doors are thrown open to the public. Extensive preparations having been completed to cover every angle, it is now up to the general public to turn out in large numbers and give support to one of the most worthy organizations in this city.

Thanksgiving Night Looms Big for Season's Interracial Basketball Clash
Renaissance Five Going Against Union City Reds Sunday Night — Jenkins Sent to Side Lines for Insubordination — Slocum Also Out of Game, and Local Team Loses for First Time
All was not well at the Renaissance Casino last Sunday night, and because the local team went in against the Bronx professionals without Hilton (Kid) Slocum and Clarence (Fat) Jenkins, Slocum has been out of the game for the past few weeks with a wrenched shoulder, while it is said that Jenkins became insubordinate to the rules as had down by the manager, "Bob" Douglas, and was kept out of the game.
This, naturally, militated against the team and pandemonium broke loose when the crowd saw that, for the first time since the team has been playing as a perfect unit, failure threatened their efforts to stem the tide which the Irony players were rolling against them.

This, naturally, militated demonium broke loose when first time since the team he unit, failure threatened their the Bronx players were rolling
To use subst against one of the toughest combinations in basketball, the Renalissance had to extend itself to keep the white players from getting away with a score that would eventually hurt, hence it was fortunate that the reserves brought up by Douglas managed to keep the final tally, 32-31, with Renalissance on the short end.
That Jenkins will be penalized goes without saying. A basketball team, like any other, must make and keep rules which, when broken by individuals, would crush the morale of the aggregation if the management allows those so inclined to get away with it. Babe Ruth had to stand for penalties, and today he is a changed man. A hint to the wise.
All hands are not only looking forward to the coming game Sunday night, when the Union City Reds arrive to do battle with the Renalissance, but to Thanksgiving

RENAISSANCE TO PENALIZE "FAT" JENKINS Brooklyn All Set for Armistice Night Game
Night, when the local team go away from home for the first really big interracial clash with one of the best white teams in the United States.
We understand that boxes have already been placed on sale for this Thanksgiving special, and if last year's turnout can be accepted as a forecast of what to expect, then Manhattan Casino will welcome one of the largest and most enthusiastic gatherings of basketball fans. Much to give thanks for, we should say.
Sloocum Star center for the Renaissance, will return to the lineup the coming Sunday night with the local team, and with "Fat" Jenkins also hitting the high spots, it is expected that nothing will again occur to leave the followers of the team in doubt as to the end of games played on their own stamping grounds.
AHA, WHAT DID WE TELL YOU?
It was in the quiet of one of those blue Long Island Sundays that we penned the few lines to be seen elsewhere on one of these pages, voicing the opinion that Harry Wills should be matched with Jack Dempsey. On Monday afternoon George Underwood of the New York Evening Telegram came out with the statement that something + funny in somebody's woodpile.
It would seem that the little bird that carries inside information to George brought him the news that Tex Rickard is desirous of matching Harry Wills with Harry Person, Jim Maloney or Jack Sharkey. Well, now, if there isn't something startling in that I would like to know just what the low down is. Yes, sir, there's something sensational hiding somewhere in boxing, and some of these days it is going to break with all the fury or a Caribbean hurricane.
Boasting one of the fastest amateur basketball teams that ever trod the courts of New York, the Y. M. D. Alumni announced the beginning of its 1926-27 season. Retaining most of their veterans of last year and augmented with the presence of last year's Y. M. D. graduating quintet, headed by Geo. Gregory, the Alumni is now in a position to take on the best in the country. They play every Saturday evening at the Y. M. C. A. and will travel anywhere in the country, to play the teams of institutions and recognized clubs. Address all communications for games to Joseph A. Stebers, manager, at the Y. M. C.

LAST week they resurrected the ancient Clem Johnson to build up another white hope in the person of one Arthur DeKuh. The last time we heard of Clem they were trying to put him on at the old Commonwealth Sport Club, now known as the Walker Athletic Club, and we raised such a howt they decided it would be foolhardy to bring back Clem to help some aspiring white hope. But they managed to slip Clem out of Harlem quick enough to make him act as a builder up to Mr. DeKuh. The story of the battle is one that every Harlemite expected as Clem rolled up soon after being made receiver general of two good punches. During the minute and a few seconds he graced the ring with his presence he failed to tap his opponent once.
DEMPSEY pulled a fluke bue against Tunney. Harry Wills is supposed to have pulled a fluke bue against Sharkey, but plans are being made to bring Dempsey back and give him a chance, while Wills is being given the short count. In spite of what our contemporaries will say, we believe they ought to match Dempsey and Wills. Regardless of the outcome of such a battle, the possibilities for the poor ballyhoo and the carringer of the coin of the realm are there. Ballyhoo should take steps to bring such a battle about as the Boxing Patrons are supposed to be primed to tell Dempsey to go out and get a "rep" before he will be allowed to fight Tunney in a return engagement here.
You can't gauge that little Cuban fighter they call Black Bill. Every time they seek to build up a new luminary in the class they secure Bill, and the little black boy allows himself to be on the short end of the argument. Instead of fighting the other night Bill clowned and allowed Happy Atherton to get the prize. But one never knows. It is said that there are times when it is more profitable for a colored fighter to lose than win. See life history of the late Joe Gans.

BRONX AND LINCOLNS SPLIT
The much postponed Lincoln Giants-Bronx Giants baseball borough championship, held in abeyance by rain for the last four Sundays, got under way at the New York Catholic Protective Oval Sunday, the Bronx Giants winning the first encounter, the Lincoln Giants the curtain closer. Both games ended in the same scores, 4—2 "Cannon Ball" Joe Redding was on the mound for the Lincolnins and pitched a steady game, losing his effectiveness in the eighth and ninth innings. Lou Gehrig of the Yankeesumped on the bases, while "Skiff," formerly of the Yankees and now the property of the Newark International League, hit a home run with Hesse on base, accounting for the two runs scored by the Bronx Giants in the initial inning. The Lincolnins scored a marker in the fourth and Reector tied the count with a circuit wallop in the corner.

B'KLYN READY CANADA STILL FOR BIG GAME MAKING GOOD
Bring on your cowbells, horns and other noise-making apparatus. Borough basketball fans will be out en-masse tomorrow night (Thursday evening, Nov. 11) to witness the opening game of a very promising indoor season. Armistice Night will mark the initial appearance of the popular Superior "Lightning Five" at their new court Arcadia Hall, with the strong "Tuxedo Big Five" as the opposition they must hurdle to get away to a victorious start.
To miss the first game is considered anything but social tastio in the borough, but we hazard that such offenders will be few, for since Arcadia Hall is the site and Prof. Charles Skeete's former Strand Dance Orchestra will furnish the music, the impelling desire to be among the merry makers will bring us all out to root for Brooklyn's Pride.
That a spectacular contest will be waged is evidenced by the divided opinion. The East Orange Five, far from being a one-man team, have their big threat in "Lanky" Jones, the Morgan College star who created such a furore in collegiate ranks the past few seasons. Despite the claim of Mgr. Niles that he has a surprise in store many are of the opinion that the lanky Jerseyite who handles a basketball in baseball fashion should do about as he pleases with the "Soup" team. However, the other side questions the ability of the Turkes to stop the Herndon, Stevens and Thompson combination. This situation should evolve one of the fastest and most gripping games of the season and might well have been withheld for a later date.
Special seats have been arranged to accommodate every patron. These seats are of the graduated variety and are being used by the American League teams playing at Arcadia. They permit an unobstructed view from any part of the hall.
ADELPHIAS COP
HECTIC BATTLE
Facing the champions of the New England States, who carried five former All-American men on line and an All-American fullback, the Adelphias displayed better form than did the heavy Stamford pros. Sunday. During the entire game there was little to choose between the two teams on their playing ability, but the Stamford Pros outtouched the blue-jerseyed boys from New York, injuring Brinson and Coston, both of whom had put up a sterling game for the New Yorkers.
The Adelphia line with Lucas and Giles on one side and Coston and Brackott on the other was a marvel. Giddings, formerly of Norfolk, and Merritt, also of the Norfolk A. C., replaced these men and stood up under the pressure well. Tuppance made a spectacular catch of a Stamford pass. Bolden was as flashy as ever in the backfield and Jackson did some real kicking and throwing. Ammons, who replaced Gilmer in the first quarter, steadied the backfield and although Stamford fought hard, the Adelphias were their match all the way through. Fully 5,000 people witnessed the game and they cheered the colored boys roundly for their fine playing. The lineup.

In another part of today's paper
we note that Chappie Gardner is
entered in the billiard tournament
to take place at the well known
Emporium Partors. It is a new-
spapermens' tournament and Chappie is down on the card as represent-
ing the Gazette, Brother Toussaint L'Overture Welcome's Long Island journal of color.
For the past week or so Chapple's mail has been coming into the office of the Amsterdam News, from which we gather, together with what Chapple tells us, he is no more a member of the staff of Brother Toussaint's journal. Of course, you will remember that we said we would notify you when Chapple again played Arab by folding his tent and again reverting to migratory habits.
Under those conditions, we rise to ask the chairman if it would not be more appropriate to say "Chapple Gardner, Unattached," instead of "Chapple Gardner, Gazette." Being a newspaperman's contest, we would also seek a point of information and learn if Chapple hasn't automatically disqualified himself by becoming divorced from the Gazette.

Before a packed audience at the Walker Athletic Club last Saturday night, two of the colored fighters again came into their own when Bruce Flowers, topping the card against Lew Paluso, came through with a brilliant victory and Canada Lee, former amateur champion, stowed away Julio Mollano.
It took ruggedness on the part of Bruce Flowers to win from Paluso, for Flowers has not as yet reached that stage in his career when he can be looked upon as a "pretty fighter." Paluso during the early stages of the fight displayed good boxing ability, but Flowers came from the rear as the fight neared the end of the stipulated distance and with heavy punching, which uncovered some hefty hooks to the body, placed his opponent at a disadvantage and got the verdict
The former amateur star, Canada Lee, has started his professional career with a series of knockouts that should soon place him in the front ranks. Dld Canada happen to be a white boy they would be giving him the ballyhoo which would take him into the big money in a much shorter space of time. It was in the third round that he hung his famous haymaker on the South American. What about giving Jack McVey a chance against some good white boy, Mr. Martello?

With the Billiardists
By OLD IVORY
THE National Pocket Billiard Tournament for the world's championship got under way in Philadelphia on the 6th, and from the calibre of the ten players entered some speculation as to the winner is going on, with Greenback, 11, best, led by Tarkisira, second, Harmon, third. This is about how they ought to finish, in our opinion, anyway.
MUCH talk of James Eames enters with no materialize, not from his ability as a player, but the color of his skin. There are at least five players that a match could be made with for a first round, and only one pocket billiards, let them step up to Harlem.
AT last the newspaper men have deeded to get together for a tournament. Garcia, Amsterdam News (now holder of the trophy); New York Times, Gerald Butler; New York Times; Tattler; Clark, New York Akq; Chapple Gardner, Gazetta. It is hoped to stage this pocket billiard classic at the Lafayette Emporium the last week over theoven along with the trophy, will receive a handsome cue.
AMONG the out-of-town visitors at the Emporium last week were George E. Gordon, New York, New Rochall, N. J.; Sudy Cones, Sheephead Bay; Pred Olidman, Montclair, N. J.; John Gross, Newark, N. J.; James Williams, Brooklyn, N. J. presented with registered keyrings with the compliments of the management.
WHAT has become of Taylor Gordon? He used to call J. Rosamond Johnson his billiard ham. But since Johnson has refused to do the sergeor he has to have a little J. Rosamond so. You can't keep a good man back.
IT is generally conceded for a pr
tical and useful souvenir the resi-
ted keyrings given away free to
patrons of the LATAYETTE Billard En-
porium can't be beat. Already eleven
s of lost keys have been returned

The Amsterdam News takes particular pride in being the first to announce the news which comes out of Pennsylvania carrying the information that W. Rollo Wilson, accomplished newspaperman and at present one of the outstanding pharmacists in Philadelphia, is being boosted by his friends for a seat on the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission under the new Governor, John Fisher, who takes office on January 1, 1927.
Thousands of Negroes scattered throughout the country would that justice had been done if Wilson should be appointed as one of the members of the Boxing Commission when it is recalled that Governor Pinehot summarily removed Charles Fred White because the latter had the courage to stand up for justice and fair play in the face of the attempt to put over what did eventually turn out to be the "Deed of the Ages" when Tunney met Dempsey for the white heavyweight championship of the world.

Charles Fred White Case to Highest
Friends Backing Former C Pinchot—Pins Hope for Believes Newspapers Fight Case
Charles Fred White, former member of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission, has decided, after several conferences with a member of a prominent Philadelphia law firm and the urgent advice of a large number of his friends and admirers, to bring a test case in the course of Governor Pincioch to reintroduce him on the commission, on the ground that the Governor overstepped his authority in removing Mr. White without sufficient cause and without the joint or concurrent action of the State Senate, as provided in the State Constitution. White was "removed" from his $5,000 job last August in order that the new chairman of the commission "might have" to conduct of the Dennys-Tunney world's heavyweight championship fight at the Philadelphia Stadium and in perpetrating one of the greatest scandals, it is said, in the history of boxing upon the public.
Commissioner White was reported to have warned Chairman Jas. E. Fartley of the New York Commission that the then proposed contest between Dempsey and Tumney might be a fake. He was brought in by Governor Pimlot, his since been learned, by Frank Wiener and others, who were afraid that they could not do certain things they wished to "pull over" with White on the commission, because White had refused to "go along" and "overlook some things" in the scheme and had continued to stand on a principle of clean sport, justice and fair dealing.
In taking and resigning this stand Commissioner White sacrificed his salary which would have been his salary for the remaining fifteen months of his term, which expired Jan. 1, 1925, and being a poor man, having declined to take any crooked money while on the

Americans foremost writer of sport, W. Rollo Wilson is also blessed with the knowledge of the boxing game which would make him a valuable member of the Pennsylvania state boxing team. A royal good fellow and a square shooter at all times, he has behind him a reputation of which he can very well feel proud and one which we hope will play its part in calling attention to his qualifications for the appointment which his friends seek for him.
to Carry His Court if Necessary
Commissioner Removed by Return on New Governor Will Receive Funds to Help
commission, could ill afford to lose such a prospect. For his action many newspapers and prominent persons have proclaimed him a national hero who "wouldn't be cowed and couldn't be bought."
Scores of White's friends and admirers have voluntarily insisted that they would contribute to a fund to employ the best legal talent to test the removal order when in answer to their questioning he stated that it would cost several thousand dollars to properly try the case. As a result of this, he has consented to bring salt and has seen in consultation with service companies of the matter. Some people have said that they will contestations to the next Governor of the State to reappoint White to the body because of his highly efficient and clean record while a member of the board for nearly three years.
One man alone in Philadelphia a year ago secured 120,000 names on petitions for Mr. White's reappointment on the first of last January, and this, was without Mr. White's knowledge until long after it had been done. Because of this apparent popular demand on the part of white and colored boxers, fans, promoters, friends and admirers and the fair-minded public who are interested, Mr. White has finally consented to allow an appeal to be made to the public for the purpose of raising the necessary funds, and has agreed that a friend, E. Boyer, who has consented to act as treasurer of the committee, is to receive the contributions at 125 North Tenth street, Philadelphia. He suggests also that, as he himself spent a number of years as a reporter and news writer, some of the newspapers interested in his case might wish to act as collectors for the fund, publishing the names of contributors and report them to the treasurer.

Crackers Give Lame Excuse for Barring Former College Star From Pro. Football Game
While about forty thousand spectators were awaiting the big game at the Polo Grounds on Election afternoon between the New York Giants and the Canton Bulls, another tragedy of color was being enacted in the dressing rooms, of which those out to witness the game knew nothing and would not have cared one way or the other if for the time being his great "Americanism" had been forgotten for "the game's sake."
Sol Dutler, well known in this neck of the woods, arrived in town with the Canton Bulldogs, all primed to put up one of his best names against the New York Giants, but when the former Duquesne college star arrived to take his place with his team he found that certain Negro-hating whites from Alabama and Texas on the Giants were greatly objecting to the presence of the popular athlete.
The Giants brought forward the argument that the great gathering would object to Eutler on the field, a lie which can be proved, for all it is before any great gathering of fans out to an athletic contest, and Sol withdrew, so that the argument would not hold up the contest. Dutler's teammates stood by him, and the Giants that in animate athletics in Greater New York Negroes have been taking a prominent part.
But the Oklahomaans and the Texas player absolutely refused to listen to reason. Perhaps the thought that they would suffer a biking at the hands of a team boasting a black colored player and they did not with ability. It is said they would not be able to face their friends upon their return to the Godforsaken places from whence they hailed if such a terrible thing happened to them. The game ended in a 7-7 tie.

To Discuss Wide Range of Subjects at Meeting
Seldom has a wider range of speakers been offered the Harlem public than will appear Sunday, Nov. 14, at Salem Church at 3:30 o'clock. The coming of Walter Drey of Forbes Magazine is especially significant in view of the increased interest displayed by authors, magazines and periodicals in Negro life and culture during recent months. While the meeting will take the form of a symposium on "The Negro's Share in Race Relations," speakers will discuss the economic and social problems facing not only the people of Harlem, but darker races of the United States and the world.
---
F. Eugene Corbis, fresh from Europe will talk on "Impressions Abroad." Dr. John Hope of Atlanta and Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, president of the National Federation of Women's Clubs, will deal with the educational aspects, Arna Bontemps, winner of prizes in both the Opportunity and Crisis contests, will represent the young Negro poet, reading from his prize-winning poems. Miss Olive Hopkins, Harlem's well-known soprano, will sing. Dr. J. W. E. Bowen will also take part in the discussion.

Statement by Earl of Craven, in Referring to China, Applies With Equal Force to Negro in Politics Only 22,000 Registered
It Must Not Be Inferred That Only Those Lowest Down in Social Scale Are Negligent—Intelligent Negroes Also Fail to Exercise Right of Franchise
A STORY has been told of a statement by the Earl of Craven, made in reply to a question in the British House of Parliament when speaking of China. He said:
"If that sleeping giant ever awakens to its great strength and to its power, we of the West had better pull our sails in or the wind shall be lost from them, and that being the case, it is up to us to keep the Chinese giant sleeping as long as our needs demand—therefore we must manage the onium traffic in China."
The Chicago Negro
M.
NEW YORK. Philadelphia, Washington, Baltimore and Chicago have over a hundred thousand Negroes each. For fullness of statement, we might as well include New Orleans with an even one hundred thousand, and is the only distinctively Southern city in the category. Chicago has the smallest number of any of her Northern sisters, and shows the greatest percentage of increase during the last census decade. But the Negroes in the Windy City show a record of achievement and enterprise beyond all comparison with the other big city. For the past few years we have heard a great deal about the Harlem Negro, and comparatively little concerning his brother in the other large cities. The New York press is almost the only organ of public opinion which is vocal throughout the nation. The great newspapers, magazines, and book concerns are located in the metropolis. Their carrying power reaches the remotest ramification of the nation. They have focused attention on the local Harlem Negro and advertised him and his problems throughout the land to all of the inhabitants thereof. And yet, while from certain emotional and sentimental excitation, the Harlem Negro has less to his credit than can be truthfully claimed on the race in Washington, Chicago, Philadelphia or Baltimore. One searches in for any hopeful indication of a gratifying future of the New York Negro in industry, business, trade enterprise, solid achievement or moral outlook. Van Vechten, with great artistic skill, has sized up the Harlem Negro's summum bonum, in "Niger Heaven." Blow off the teeth and frith and what is the solid residue?

The Sleeping Giant - The Harlem Negro
This statement made in reference to the Old China seems appropriate to the Harlem of today. For it is to the interest of the political bosses, black as well as white, to keep the NEGRO vote in Harlem divided and therefore render the real power of the people ineffective. The circumstance which bears most importance in the life of the Negro in Harlem is the vote.
Yet, of the boasted 250,000 people, said to be the extent of the black population in Harlem, only about one-eleventh, or 22,000, take the trouble to register, and of that number only about seventy-two per cent take the polls and cast the ballot.
By KELLY MILLER hundred and nine thousand Negroes, against one hundred and fifty-four thousand in Greater New York. Comparison of accomplishments would be invidious.
Chicago has the greatest Negro newspaper on earth. Although much further removed from the mass of the population than the seaboard cities, yet through superior journalistic enterprise she has easily outdistanced all of her rivals as the locus of the voice of the race. In addition to the Defender, which competing journals have agreed to step aside and let pass, there are the Whip and the Bee, crying as lustily as any to be heard within and without their balliwick.
The Windy City contains two Negro banks, with combined resources of over three million dollars. One of these is a state bank, and the other is a national bank and the only one of its kind in America, and for that matter in the world. I doubt whether there is a colored bank anywhere in the country that can equal or surpass either of these financial institutions in resources, volume of business and efficiency of management.
Two strong insurance companies have not only their home offices here, but inception, origin and compelling energy must be accredited to this city. The visitor is amazed at the rapidity with which the Chicago Negro is acquiring homes. Grand Boulevard is a beautiful residence street stretching through the city, which is surpassed in landscape engineering and residential adornment by few streets in America. A very few years ago the wealthiest citizens of the city laid out this street for their own exclusive abode. Now it is owned and occupied by Negroes from end to end. I do not pretend to understand how they have, been able to buy and maintain
According to the New York World Almanac, the Negro population in New York City, and for the most part in Harlem, indicates a graphic distribution as follows: Persons over the age of 21—Males, 38,491; females, 42,517. Persons 18 to 44—Males, 39,482; females, 34,777. Persons 20 to 44—Males, 48,845; females 44,068. Persons 45 and over—Males, 10,999; females, 10,703. Persons 15 to 19 years of age—Males, 5,503; females, 4,089.
This analysis indicates that each year the voting population should be increased by 2,296, and that each Presidential year the net increase in the voting population should be 10,080.
The New York State census gives the total Negro population of New York City as 279,480. This would give to Harlem, where the bulk of the colored population is, about a rough 225,000, which ought to normally maintain a yearly voting population of not less than 77,000, and during an emergency year not less than 100,000 votes.
When the contest between Dr. Charles Roberts, Negro candidate for Congress in 1924, is reflected, we find that in the entire Congressional District that year only 76,000 votes, or a little over, were cast in the five or more Assembly Districts which then comprised the Congressional District in which he ran.
In the twenty-two Election Districts known as "colored" in the Twenty-first Assembly District, during the last election, when the success of a colored candidate was involved, only 6,480 persons took the trouble to register, and of these only 5,911 took the trouble to go to the polls and cast their vote. And, what is more important, in the five districts in which Myles Paige, Negro candidate for the office of State Senator, made his race, only 13,349 Negroes took the trouble to register, and of these only 10,790 went to the polls and actually cast their votes for their candidate.
Political indifference of this kind would easily lead one to assume that the persons who are negligent in their duty to vote are those of the lower classes. While this is true, because of the ratio which the working and poorer classes bear to the whole population, we shall see that the poorer classes vote relatively in greater numbers than do the members of the so-called leadership and wealthy classes. The writer, just after the last registration, made a personal canvass among the leading and so-called thinking persons of Harlem and, as usual each year, the following disgraceful facts came to his attention:
Of twenty-six physicians interviewed, five had not voted for the past five years, six had not the right to vote, and
these magnificent establishments. But the fact astounds me. There is nothing like it—nothing approximating it on the continent.
Chicago Negroes own and operate successfully two of the largest colored hotels in the world. As I travel about the country from place to place, I find it most difficult to secure satisfactory stopping places outside of private residences and Y. M. C. A. buildings. I certainly pity the Negro who arrives in New York, Philadelphia or Baltimore, if his terminal facilities have not been previously provided for. This has always struck me as a curious comment on Negro efficiency or inefficiency. All of our cities teem with newcomers, visitors, transients, boarders and lodgers, and yet the stranger and the visitor can hardly find a comfortable place to lay his head and rest his weary limbs. The Chicago restaurants are the best in the country. The testing thereof is the tasting thereof. While one cannot say as much as he would like to say about that phase of business enterprise which has to do with the buying and selling of commodities, yet the Windy City in no degree falls behind its rivals. The Negro real estate dealers do the most active and effective business of all. They transact real estate deals of a magnitude and on a scale which would put other places to shame.
The Chicago Negroes have vital relation to the politics and government of the city of which they form a part. They control complete political units in sections where they have the numerical ascendancy. The Negro leader is not merely the petty henchman of some white over-boss, but is the leader in the one hundred per cent interpretation of the term. They elect members of the City

Council. State Legislature, judges of the court, and in the near future they will send a Negro to the Congress of the United States. By virtue of their political weight they demand and secure appointive positions of the highest pay and importance within the gift of the city and state. New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore must hang their heads in chagrin as they look upon the triumphant Negro in Chicago in local and city politics.
The limitations of this release will not permit me to go further into fuller details of the features in which Chicago excels other cities. She has the largest, best equipped and managed hospital, except the ones at Tuskegee and Washington, under direct support and management of the Federal Government. She has a greater numbity of doctors and lawyers per capita than her rivals. The Negro contingent of the great Baptist denomination of three million members lives and functions here. Her religious life is as active and assertive as any. Secret fraternities are planting headquarters in its lake metropolis. Bishops of the several branches of the Methodist churches are establishing Episcopal residences. The social life is all agog. No city can surpass her in the abundance and splendor of hospitality. Small wonder that she is gaining the name of the Convention City.
In no feature of their life does the Chicago group fall below the average, and in features she equals most, and in several she surpasses all.
What is the cause? Wherever there is an effect, there must be a cause. The Chicago Negro is made of the same flesh and blood and mind stuff as the rest of their fellow race men. Then how, it must be asked, did they get the start of the majestic world and how do they hold it?
As I have analyzed the situation, it all resides in the spirit. They are able because they believe they

Of thirteen school teachers, nine had not registered and three had registered for the first time this year, and one had never missed a year for sixteen years, and had registered this year as is usual with him. Of seven persons officially connected with the Y. M. C. A., the secretary had never voted, and since he was born in Canada, the assumption seems fair that he is not a citizen.
Of five persons connected officially with the Urban League, one said that he voted out of town, two would not respond to questions put to them and two had registered this year. Of eight drug store clerks and owners, two had voted and registered continuously for more than twelve years, four had not the right to vote and two had not registered. Of nineteen trained nurses, eleven had never voted nor registered; five had not the right to vote and three had registered. Of forty-one persons who are officers of fraternal organizations, twenty-three had not the right to vote, nine had not registered and eight had registered. Of thirty-four tradesmen, such as tailors, carpenters, electricians, brick masons, etc., twenty-seven said that they had been too busy to vote or to register. Eighteen of the twenty-one lawyers had registered, one had been ill, and two had not registered.
All of these persons were looked up in the registration books after the interview and the answers were found to be substantially correct.
This analysis indicates that the percentage of so-called leading Negroes, with the exception of the post office clerks and carriers, who, out of 107 names looked up were found to have registered to the extent of 105, is less than the poorer classes.
There can be no excuse for this political dereliction. The cry right along has been that the "white folks" were keeping the Negro down: that they do not want us to be leaders; that they were the natural and actual enemies of race progress.
All this talk is disproved by the facts and the not reassuring figures as cited above. The whole problem of political self-help lies in the hands of the masses of the Negroes in Harlem, and when they take the trouble to go to the polls in large numbers that act alone shall be the solution.
White Republicans nor Democrats are interested in the Negro going out in large numbers to vote and register; for
To Unveil Memorial to Colonel Young
To Unveil Memorial to Colonel Young
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Announcement is made from the national offices of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity that the monument erected over the grave of Col. Charles Young in the Arlington National Cemetery has been completed and will be unveiled at 2 p.m. Armistice Day.
About two years ago, under the leadership of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, the proposal was made that a suitable monument be erected over the grave of the man who held the highest rank ever to be attained by a member of the Negro race in the regular army of the United States. The consent of his widow was obtained and the work started toward the raising of funds for the memorial.
At the request of Mrs. Young the effort was not limited to the Omago Psi Phi Fraternity, but opportunity was given to all patriotic and other organizations ed as military charge d'affairs in Haiti he made a map of the country that proved of great value to the marines when they began their occupancy of that
Colonel Young was graduated from the West Point Military Academy in 1859. Upon receiving his appointment in the regular army as second lieutenant he was assigned to the cavalry branch of the service.
Colonel Young had a colorful career, first distinguishing himself in campaigns against the Indians in the West. During the Spanish-American War he was appointed major of the volunteers and placed in command of the Ninth Ohio Battalion. After the war he served with conspicuous efficiency in the Philippines and in Mexico.
During the period that he serv
are able. They have faith and confidence in themselves. According to thy faith be it unto thee. I have more than once said to representatives of this group: "You people act as if you believed you were free." After all, freedom is a state of mind. They still persist in this belief. Even the race riot did not "get their goat." A white man told me five years before it happened that State street would be the scene of a bloody race conflict. But Chicago and Illinois were the only jurisdictions that undertook to handle the race riot in a statesman-like fashion. The Race Commission, composed of the choicest representatives of both races, co-operated in ferreting out the causes and prescribing the remedy. The resulting book—"The Negro of Chicago"—still remains the clearest presentation of the question available to the student of race relations.

ed as military charge d'affaires in Haiti he made a map of the country that proved of great value to the marines when they began their occupancy of that country. Probably the work for which he is best remembered is his great accomplishment in Africa. Sent by this Government to the Liberian Republic to organize the constabulary and help build roads through the wilderness, he performed such an invaluable service that he received special commendation from the War Department and was voted the Spingarn Medal for outstanding achievement.
At the outbreak of the World War it was confidently expected that Colonel Young, who was considered one of the most efficient officers of the regular army, would be assigned to command a combat division of troops in France. It is thought that he himself looked forward to this as a well-earned reward for a lifetime of uncomplaining and efficient service rendered his country.
However, it did not materialize and Colonel Young was retired. Later he was recalled and placed in command of a dept brigade in Ohio. It is not known how great a disappointment this was to him, as he could never be brought to criticize the actions of his superior officers, but the Negro race felt humiliated, and gave vent to their feelings in undeniable terms both from platforms throughout the country and through the press.
At the close of the World War another opportunity came for this soldier to serve his country on foreign soil. He was again sent to Africa and it was while there that the end came. He died in Nigeria, West Africa, in January, 1921. He is survived by a widow, a son and daughter.
The monument stands on a beautiful hillside south of the Arlington National Memorial Amphitheatre and next to the monuments marking the graves of General Franklin Bell and Major Archie Butt. Major O. J. W. Scott, U. S. A., retired, former chaplain of the 10th Cavalry, of which Colonel Young was commanding officer.
this would mean a shifting of the political balance of power from the Jews and Italians to the Negroes, whose problem has a definite national phase and which, if they possessed the balance of power, would force by the pressure of such a balance precise action tending to a solution of the national phases of their problem.
If, for instance, the Harlem Negro had the prime factor in a supposed balance of power, of, say 100,000 votes, he could positively elect a Congressman to the House of Representatives and influence the election of a United States Senator to such a degree that he would be accorded at least one National Committeeman and not less than three delegates, to the national conventions of both major parties.
He would be in a position to place upon the bench of the various courts at least one jurist and to influence the election of the others to such an extent that justice, which is now denied him, would be accorded him with gusto and without difficulty.
An examination of the names on the state and county ticket in the last election shows a most extraordinary fact—that more than 45 per cent of the names appearing on the ticket for election was of the Jewish race and 7 per cent of the Italian.
A great lesson should be received from the last election by the Negro voter in Harlem. In the Twentieth Congressional District an Italian-American, La Guardia, was the candidate on the Republican ticket; every other Republican candidate was defeated in that district, but La Guardia was elected.
Again, on the state ticket, Albert Ottinger, a Jew, was running for the office of Attorney General of State; all of the Republican candidates on his ticket were defeated and ran far behind Mr. Ottinger, but he was elected by a plurality of over 8,000 votes.
This shows that the Democratic Jews, when they came to the office of the Attorney General on the ticket, joined hands with the Jews of the Republican party, and voted a Jew to the high office where he may again be in a position to say that it is his legal opinion that Harry Wills or some other Negro contender in the prize fighting game is not the logical contender to meet the white champion.
In passing it is perhaps interesting to note that the name of Mr. nor Mrs. Wills appears on the register. The Harlem black giant appears to be asleep. We hope that he will some day awaken to his strength and exercise his rights.

Waking William
MINERVA HUNTER.
"I DON'T know what: I am going to do when William gets old enough to go to school." Mrs. Goodman told her husband's sister who was visiting her. "He never will be on time, or if he is on time he will be too stupid to learn."
"I have never thought of William as being stupid," his Aunt Frances answered.
"That is because he has been allowed to sleep as long as he pleased since you have been here," the mother said. "Wait until tomorrow morning, when we have to catch the early train. He will be dull and will whine all day."
The next morning the grown folks were up early to get ready for the trip. Frances went to William's bed first, thing and took hold of his arms and worked them gently back and forth.
"For goodness sake, Frances, don't wake William up yet! He will be cross as a bear; let him lie until the last minute," the mother admonished.
"Leave William to me." Frances replied. "I am going to have him up early and in a good humor."
Then she took William's legs and began working them gently. After this she turned him over and left him a few minutes while she continued her preparations for the day. Off and on for the next twenty minutes Frances worked William's arms and legs and then turned him over. Soon he was stretching himself, yawning and turning over by himself.
When his anxious mother came in to dress him he greeted her with a smile, announcing: "We are going to the seashore on the train!"
William stood the trip well and was in the best of spirits when they reached their destination. His mother was delighted, and surprised. "You must explain the wonderful secret to me," she told Frances. "How did you manage to get William up early and have him in a good humor all day?"
"When I was a child I was hard to wake." Frances began. "Many a time I was taken from bed and dressed for school while I was half asleep. I would be too sick to eat breakfast and the
whole day would go wrong. In the summer I was allowed to sleep as long as I pleased and I would always feel better. But school took up more than half the year and my health was not good. Mother took me to a doctor who explained that it is never good to get up suddenly after a night's sleep. The vital organs of the body are relaxed and should begin their work gradually. It is far better to stretch and yawn and turn over several times before getting out of bed. I was old enough at the time to understand what I should do. Mother would call me ahead of time so that I could take my yawning and stretching exercises. I was interested and willing to do anything to feel better. Soon my dull days were over and I could enjoy breakfast all the year round."
"So it was the yawning and stretching exercises that you gave William this morning?" the mother asked.
"Yes, and if you will keep it up this summer, by autumn he will be doing it all by himself, I am sure." Frances answered.
"It certainly seems worth while," said the mother as she looked at her happy little boy splashing joyously in the water.

New York State, with 1,750,000 hydroelectric horsepower developed, has 15.7 per cent of all the waterpower installed in the country. In addition to this, 5,000,000 tons of coal are needed to generate more than 10,000,000,000 kilowatt hours of current used yearly in the State.
The Empire State has six of the fifty leading manufacturing cities of the United States. They are New York, Buffalo, Rochester, Schenectady, Syracuse and Yonkers.
The per capita use of manufactured gas in New York State is 10,000 cubic feet a year, enough to fill a tank sixteen feet in diameter and fifty feet high. If one year's supply of gas was put in such tanks, there would be 10,000,000 of them, or 200 to each square mile in the State.
New York State ranks tenth in the value of petroleum produced, thirteenth in the value of minerals, and twenty-first in the value of wool.

| LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Paige Defends Costuma
‘To the Editor of the Amsterdam News,
My Dear Sir:
ee eee Se ee CHP eee OC MEET
uppreciation for your grewt kindness and assistance
through the cvlumas of. The New York Amsterdam
News in adverusing und urging my candidacy and
Clection :o the office of State Senator from the Nine.
teeutl Senatorial District, New York City. Also
please extend my thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Davis,
However. 1 must take ‘advantage of this corre-
“Mhoudenee tu stute what I feel my sincere and
honest duty demands, ag one perhaps in a better
position to know the veal truth and circumstances
upov, which you have commented. Vet. t am glad
to note your interest in the political affairs of Har-
lem to the extent of expressing your views edi-
torially, for where there is such interest iu the
presentation of the facty as oue sees diem, certainty
there will follow {when not preceding» an Gort to
Tearn ihe truth concerning those things xvout whieh
one ix Interested. Though I regret that in thls
case the effort appurently will come afier Uie ex
rression of interest rather than before. 7
Now, the editorial to which I have reference Is
that of date Novemoer 2, 1926, entitled “Afsirs in
Lh 3, D..” wherein you doubted the good fulth and
poleial judgment of the leader of the Ninteeath
Assembly’ Distriet, David -B, Costuma, in fostering
tay candidacy for the office of State Senator from
the Natneteett: Senatorial District, of whieh the
Nineteenth Assembly District is a part. Surely jus-
lice and fuirness to the attacked require me to
nukes this statement siace 1 am the candidute re-
fered to and slace 1 do ktiow more of the fects and
circumstances of which you are apparently quite
unaware,
Trust state that 1 have loug beer one of those
Nratoes who never gives a white man the Uenefit
of ‘the doubt us to bis dotentions with regards to
our xroup. though | am broad enough to give im
‘credit where hfy services have merited it. Having
known Mr. Costiimu for a perivd of over two years
‘during which ume he was never under any personal
obligution to me. I ain in a position to speuk with
some degree uf knowledge in reference to bis atti-
ture toward our group over that pefiod of time.
Never have 1 discovered the least intimation of a
feeling of condescension on his part towurd any of
jus: rather he has often dured againee his own to
‘act in our behult und boldly defend our just rights
with no apparent expectation of publicity or favor
from those receiving the benefits,
In reference to my designation and nomisation
cor the office of Stute Senator 1 can assiet you in
‘correcting the error of your statement in the article
above referred to. which article Sm substance was to
the efivet that I was placed on the ticket simply
to ald in obtaining Negro votes for the reelection
of Abraham Grenthal to the Assembly. Mr. Costuma
stated at the time of presenting my nome in nom
ination for the designation of candidute for the
office of State Senator that it wax done for the
following Teasons:
(11 That Myles A. Paige is « Republican, efficient
and capable of performing une duties of that office
sutisfuctorfly. if elected: (21 he is competent to
conduct an intensive and creditable campaign, 1¢
nominated: (2) be is deserving through his services
rendered to the party: (4) the Negroes of the dis-
irlet_ were entitled to this representation tn the
Lesislature of the State of New York,
"Mr. Costuma assured all present that he would
‘demand from the workers in the party, particularly
‘thos: fn the white sections in the district, tha, HE
WOULD NOT TOLERATE A RECURRENCE OF
THR PAST THIS YEAR without each one being
made to render an account of same and resign his
‘captatucy. And the result of the election m that dis-
[trict was sufficient evidence of the force of his state-
met, for. with few exceptions, my returns from the
[white elect{on districts were ubout the same as thone
in tavor of Grenthal, and io excess of his im the
|Negro districts by 2 small majority.
T won the Nineteenth Assembly District trom mr
opponent hy x majority in the proximity of 700
votes. which clearly indicates that J had the support
of the entire Assembly District. But, defeat was
‘duc to the Democratic landslide in the other two
Democratic Districts (Thirteenth and Twentieth) of
tie Senatorial District, over which Mr, Costumy had
| ny control,
Naw tbe real plane (or my fallure and that of all
other Negro candidates in the Nineteenth Assembly
Divert in puttiewlar “is upon the Negroes them:
selvew, for it has been iinpossible to induce or per-
nade more than from 15 per cent to 20 per cent
Gt those eligible to vole to even register and, of
course. many of those who register do not vote.” In
spite of all that Mr. Costuma and any other white
[person,or group of white people could do in this
jiistrict. 1¢ thy Negroes were suificlently interested
jn the political success of their own candiviates they
corti elect thom, for they have the majority of the
eligible voters.
Yel they fail each succeeding yeur to xhow sutch
interest, and why should they expect someone else
‘not of themselves) to do more for them than they
‘are willing to do fur-themselves? It was in the
ower of Sr. Coatuma to suxgest x candidate only
[and he hay consistently named u Negro candidate,
and were the Democrats of the district as loyal to
this community, a Negro candidate would certataly
‘pe elected cn one of the tickets who was In the
regular course presented to the local county com-
mittee. most of whom are Negroes, for approval.
And there bas been no complaint on their part, for

Tulen of polftics, he wae rightfully entitled to the

to ofter he gave, and with ft was given all the
energy he possessed to make it successtul and bene-

Election Aftermaths
FOR THE THIRD CONSECUTIVE time
Abraham Grenthal has been elected to
the Assembly from the Nineteenth Dis-
trict, and for the third consecutive time
Negroes running-ior office on the same
ticket in this district have been defeat:
ed. Three years ago Aiken A. Pope, can=
didate for the Board of Aldermen, run-
ning on the Republican ticket with Gren-
thal, was defeated. Last year, as we
pointed out Jast week, William Mc-
Gruder. candidate for the same office,
suffered a similar fate. Myles Paige’s
presence on the Republican ticket last
Tuesday as a candidate for the State
Senate was evidently for no other rea-
son than to insure Grenthal’s receiving
the Negro vote in the Nineteenth Dis-
trict. It was a foregone conciusion that
he could not be elected in the senatorial
district.
WE ARE NOT OPPOSED to Grenthal.
The fact is, so far, we have supported
him each time he has been a candidate.
But from all indications the political
game is not played on the level in the
Nineteenth District under David B. Cos-
tuma, and the time has come to acquaint
the voters with the conditions so that
in the future they can either play the
game Mr. Costuma plays or refuse to
play with him at all.
IT SO HAPPENS that Grenthal and
Costuma are reported to have had the
same racial origin and that a large num=
ber of the white voters in the Nineteenth
District are identified with that same
racial group. This makes it easy for us
to conclude that race, and not party, is
the deciding factor in Nineteen District
politics. In the Nineteenth Grenthal even
ran 1,086 votes ahead of Ogden Mills,
the head of the State ticket. Negroes in
that district have hitherto voted along
strict party lines and their candidates
have met only defeat. .
TURNING NOW to the Twenty-first
Assembly District, we iind that late elec-
tion returns from the white districts
turned a lead of several kundred votes
for H. Adolph Howell to defeat by less
than a hundred votes. How Howell, who
was apparently in the lead all the time
the count was being made, and where
the votes came from that defeated him,
may yet have to be explained.
IT WOULD APPEAR that there are but
two ways Negroes in Harlem may be
sure of electing their candidates. One
is to have Negroes on both the Republi-
can and Democfatic tickets for the same
office, and the other is to put in the
field and support regardless of party in-
dependent Negro candidates ior elective
offices that can be controlled by the
Negro vote. ,
NEGROES in the City of Chicago clect-
ed two State Senators and three State
Representatives. Negroes in New York
City now have but one elected official,
