Mrs. Garvey, the plaintiff, and Mr. Garvey, the founder of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, were married on Christmas Day, 1813. Just prior to their marriage Mrs. Garvey had herologically saved the life of Garvey by throwing herself between her then lover and an frate West Indian who had come to the headquarters of the U. N. J. A. at 56 West 135th street, bent on killing Garvey. Just as she stepped between them the man fired at Garvey and the then Amy Ashwood received a flesh wound. The marriage on Christmas Day was as a reward. There were great festivities within the organization at this time.

SUPREME COURT GRANTS MRS. ETTA-GREGG WILLIAMS ALIMONY AND COUNSEL FEE Files Counter-Claim for Divorce Against Husband, Charging Adultery With Corepondent's Former That New York will have an opportunity within the next few weeks of sitting in on a sordid divorce trial was prognosticated last week when the wife's application for alimony and counsel fee, pending the divorce case of Ernest E. Williams, plaintiff, against Etta Gregg Williams, defendant, came up for a hearing in the Supreme Court. Part I, Special Term, before Justice Wasservogel, and from the perusal of the numerous affidavits filed in the divorce case. Alimony of $12 a week and a $150 counsel fee were granted the defendant. When the case originated on Sept. 20, 1926, Ernest E. Williams, a post office employee, with Cherurg and Cherurg, attorneys, of 120 West Forty-second street, handling his case, charged his wife, Etta Gregg Williams, with having committed adultery on June 3 or 4, 1925, with William Blekely at 660 St. Nicholas avenue, and with having committed adultery with this same man at various other times and places. MAN FALLS FROM ROOF; BOILER EXPLODES IN BASEMENT AT SAME TIME FOUR HELD IN SLAYING OF ARKANSAS ACADEMY PRESIDENT Policeman Geiselmann, of the Sixteenth Precinct, who summoned an ambulance and had the man removed to Harlem Hospital, does not know how he happened to be on the roof. Hoyt was without his hat and coat when he fell but these were found on the roof later, where only his tracks were seen in the snow. He suffered a broken left leg, right arm, back and fracture of the pelvis. He was attended by Dr. Fraggasi. At about the same time the boiler in the same building, around the corner at No. 2247 Seventh avenue, exploded, wrecking the soft drink shop on the street floor. No one was hurt. Former Deceased President's Wife One of Those Under Arrest-At First Believed He Took His Own Life ARKADELPHIA, Ark. Dec. 6. — A sensation was caused here Wednesday by the arrest of Mrs. Ida Feaster, Terrell Austin, Charles Bell and Ollie Trigg on a charge of first degree murder in connection with the death here, Sept. 23, of the Rev. Elmo Hames, minister and president of the Arkadelphia Presbyterian Academy. It was at first believed that the minister had committed suicide. Two diamond rings valued at over $1,000 each, over $2,000 in cash from one place and $250 in cash from another place, were taken from the residence of Dr. and Mrs. U. Conrad Vincent, 251 West 138th street, Monday. Only the maid and a painter's helper were in the house during the morning. The helper went to lunch at noon and failed to return. The woman and the three men were arrested by Deputy Sheriffs Wiley Cook and Harold Bachelor after a warrant had been issued Dr. Vincent discovered the robbery after 5 o'clock. Authorities are investigating the case. (Continued on Page.18.) Mrs. Williams, the plaintiff's wife, through her attorney, J. Douglas Wetmore. 1440 Broadway, has denied the adultery charge and has filed a counter-claim for divorce. She charges that the plaintiff's husband, committed adultery on September 6, 1926, with Octavia Stallwirth at 174 West 141st street, and at other times and places with the same woman during the fall and winter of 1922, and at various other times during the year 1926.

C., and at other places. BROTHER'S LETTER COMPROMISES SISTER. According to the affidavits already on file in the case, Richard N. Gregg, brother of Mrs. Williams, the defendant, and a woman named Mercedes Cheeseborough claim to have been in the room when the defendant and William Blekely were undressed and in bed together and talked to both of them. A photographic copy of a letter dated November 9, 1926, purported to have been written to Dr. Joseph Gregg, another brother of the defendant, by Richard N. Gregg, tell- SENTENCED TO PRISON FOR HAVING 'NUMBERS' Joseph Fischer, 41, 60 West 140th street, was sentenced to sixty days in the workhouse by the Justices in Special Sessions on Friday after he had pleaded guilty to violating Section 974 of the Penal Law.

Rumble, reputed millionaire and at one time aspirant for a seat in the House of Representatives for the Twenty-first Congressional District, which takes in all of colored Harlem, was sentenced to not less than two and one-half to five years in Sing Sing Prison yesterday by Judge Michael Collins in the Court of General Sessions Rumble was convicted last week of grand larceny in the first degree by a jury after a trial lasting nearly three days. Judge Collins said that he would show no more consideration to defendant than the jury had, and sentenced him as though convicted of larceny in the second degree. He told Rumble that he was the cheapest sort of confidence man. It is reported that his victims were all white. It was alleged that in 1924 a man named Adorno, in answer to a newspaper advertisement placed with one of the leading evening newspapers of the city, was induced to give Rumble the sum of $1,500. Rumble then had an office at 205 Duane street. In return, Adorno was to receive shares of stock at par value of $10 per share and a position as manager of a branch store at 125 West Seventy-second street, at the salary of $60 per week. The branch store never opened. On the stand the defendant admitted that the corporation was organized in 1914, but dissolved in 1917, and that thereafter he had used its name for its operations in the State. He had first claimed a copy of its New Jersey certificate was on file in the County Clerk's (Continued on Page 18.)

Satisfies Big Appetite --- But Customer Then Tendered Bad Check in Payment —Guilty At 11 p. m. on Tuesday, November 9, last James J. Johnson had an enormous appetite, which he appressed with sandwiches and coffee to the tune of $2 at Herman Robson's delicatessen shop, 229S Seventh avenue. Payment and eating were unrelated as far as Johnson was concerned, but after he, had satisfied his hunger Charles Ross, clerk in the store, presented the bill, thus connecting the two operations. Johnson then realized that he had no cash, but he discovered, however, that he had a check drawn to cash and signed by J. Johnson, 67 West 12th street, for $10. This he tendered in payment and received $2 in cash. Loss claims that when he deposited the check to the account of his employer he was returned in the course of time marked "No Good."

Heart of Ha G NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 8, 1926 Uncle Held for Special Sessions Charged With Corrupting Boy's Morals A decided hush came over the murmuring spectators in the Heights Court Monday morning when John Frey, 2230 Fifth avenue, was accused of corrupting the morals of his 14-year-old nephew, Courtney Frey. "That boy is not 'telling the truth,' repeatedly shouted the infuriated and nervous uncle as Courtney, in low and bashful tones, told the court of the shameful experiences to which he says he had been subjected during the past four years. The lad told how he had run away from his uncle's home, to avoid this unnatural practice. Dr. W. Travis Gibb of the Children's Society is alleged to have claimed that upon examination he found the boy to be in a dangerous condition. According to Courtney's story he Public Schools No. 5, S9 and 139 will hold a neighborhood parents' meeting tomorrow evening in the auditorium of Public School No. 139. 140th street, between Lenox and Seventh avenues.

Threw Razor at Cop; Sentenced to Sing Sing William Brown, 49, of Binghamton, was sentenced to two and one-half years in Sing Sing Prison by Judge Barrett in the Bronx County Court last week, after pleading guilty to a charge of attempted assault, preferred against him by Policeman Frederick Riechter, of the Bathgate Avenue station. Riechter testified that on Sept. 5, while pursuing Brown after he saw him in an altercation with another man at 169th street and Park avenue, Brown threw an open razor at him. That constituted the charge of attempted assault. The two and one-half years' sentence was meted out in pursuance of the Baumes Law, as Brown is a second offender. His Uncle had lived with his uncle since the death of his father nine years ago. He stated that on the night of last Nov. 22, at 11 p. m., while in bed with his uncle, this experience took place. Many women in the courtroom gasped as the child, with tears in his eyes, told of the occurrence. However, during the course of the examining it was brought out that on Thanksgiving eve Courtney's uncle gave him a good thrashing because he returned home an hour late from school. That night the boy ran away from home and for three nights slept in the hallways of various apartment buildings. Finally he appealed to a policeman for aid and was taken over by the Children's Society. The uncle was held in $500 ball for Special Sessions. He claimed he had been married for eleven years and had lived with his wife up until three months ago. Pleads Guilty to Attempted Theft Man. Probably Forestalled Conviction in First Degree James Jones. 19. 246 West 1293 street, indicted for robbery in the first degree, went to trial on Thursday in the Court of General Sessions. Part VI. before Judge Koenig and a jury. After the state had presented its case, he took the stand in his own behalf, faltered and squirmed, contradicted himself, and under advice of counsel embraced the State's offer to plea guilty to attempted robbery in the third degree. It appeared certain that, had Jones continued the trial the jury would have found high guilty of first degree robbery indicted. The indictment alleged that 9 p. m., November 1, 1926, at 1 West 132d street, Jones and Alvi. Foster, at the point of a revolver, held up Benjamin Waddy, age 16, 28 West 132d street, and took from him his new overcoat and a diamond ring, both purchased that evening by Waddy at $30 and $50, respectively.

Of the $15 cash thus realized on the adventure he gave his mother only $5, did not mention the remainder, and did not divide with Alvin. Waddy, the complainant, under fire of cross-examination disclosed that in the past two years he had worked only three days and then as a bouncer at the Lafayette Theatre.

Hinga Dismond, Emory Dyson, Leonard Clark and Dr. Gertrude Curtis: Pioneer Teacher of Negroes Honored by New York University The University of the State of New York honored itself two weeks ago in bestowing upon Miss Emily Howland the degree of Doctor of Letters. On the 20th of November Miss Howland celebrated her one hundredth birthday, a central New York teacher, her dearest declared her to be. She has been and is far more than that. Born a Quaker and true to that noble faith all her life, Miss Howland was one of the pioneers in teaching the Negro at a time when to do so one courted mob violence, and, in Southern states, long terms of punishment. During the Civil War she took charge of one of the great camps for the Negro, and this has supported Negro education everywhere by her precept, her example, her large and generous financial gifts. Side by side with this great service she fought for woman suffrage and temperance; her one great cause today is that of peace. At her great age she still manages two farms and a school and is a director in a bank. Best of all, her soul is as young and forward looking as ever. Then she went on October 25, a similar honor was bestowed upon Dr. Frank Sheldon Fosdick, for fifty years a teacher in Buffalo schools and the father of Raymond and the Rev. Harry Emerson Fosdick. By a happy choice the latter was asked to make the up- on this rare occasion. Among other things he said that: The end of all true education is to produce genuinely independent individuals capable of taking intelligent charge of their own lives. There can have been in history few times when an independent minority was more deeply needed than now—men and women who dare to think their own thoughts, stand on their own feet, take charge of their own lives. We need men and women who know that the economic order cannot remain as it is, that we must look forward to a more decent day when the profit motive sinks and the service motive rises into the ascendancy; men and women who see that a narrow nationalism will not do, that patriotism is not enough. Dr. Forsick must have had Emily Dorsick as a friend as in sighs From The Nation.

Working con- ditions, living arrangements, the general social code seemed to me extraordinarily stupid. - I discovered that I was not’ the only woman uncom- fortable in the world. The office charwoman’s cracked hands were dyed brown from washing filthy floors: growing girls lugged heavy babies about the playgrounds; prostitutes complained be- cause they had to hand over their earnings to pimps; virtuous women shriveled ‘at their desks; men got the good jobs.” So writes a woman in the current issue of The Nation under the caption, “\Why I Earn My Own Living.” ‘In an article less than two pages in length the anonymous writer, over forty years of age. tells some of her experiences in three’ stages — celibacy, free’ union and marriage. . She, like many otler women, started support- ing herself because she thought it was her duty. That duty, inthe end, became a matter of conrse. From this she has realized that dependent women are far more hampered than wage-carning ‘ones. Hence. she continues to be wage-eatning. At her age she stands where a man_of thirty stands, with cnough solid achievement behind her to nourish the ambitious desire to do still bigger things. : The young women of today—those with’ the seli- supporting idea—get a much earlier start- than this woman had, But what are the motives that make them seli-supporting?

Win Post Office Porter Nabbed as Thief Store MITTSBURGH, Dec. 6.—The office of post office inspectors here had the appearance of having been turned into a department store, with a large quantity of wearing apparel and other articles, worth more than $5,000, stacked high on desks and furniture. The array of goods, according to the inspectors, represented part of merchandise stolen from parcel post packages by John Jackson, 60, at the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad station, where he has been employed as a mail porter for six years. Jackson is under arrest on a charge of theft of the goods. The merchandise was recovered at Jackson's home by the inspectors, following his arrest at the railroad station. Because of the many articles taken from parcel post packages after reaching the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad station, the inspectors have been suspicious of Jackson. They alleged they detected Jackson removing a sweater, a silk scarf and a dress from a package. After placing him under arrest they went to his home, and among the articles they reported seizing were Seventeen women's and children's dresses, five suits of clothes, one overcoat, fifty neckties, eight silk shirts, two pairs of shoes, many pairs of hose and stockings, much of lingerie, a gold watch, two rings, dental supplies, and many other kinds of merchandise. They also found three pawn tickets. Jackson, they said, got for goods he had pawned. Jackson's brother, John Jackson. a former mail porter, was arrested on July 15, 1922, for a similar offense, and served eight months in jail.

Phone Prospect 6375 Brooklyn Judge Ordered to Resentence Colored Man for Life Brooklyn Judge Ordered to Resentence Colored Man for Life Supreme Court Justice Lewis Signs Order at Request of District Attorney Dodd — Acts Under the Baumes Law — Harry Simmons the Man in the Case Supreme Court Justice Lewis on Wednesday granted the peremptory order of mandamus asked by District Attorney Dodd, requiring County Judge Franklin Taylor to bring back from Sing Sing Harry Simmons to plead to an information filed by Mr. Dodd that he is a fourth offender and should be sentenced to life under the Baumes law. Simmons was sentenced to three years by Judge Taylor for stealing $169 from his employer, after he was allowed to plead guilty as a first offender. When Simmons arrived at Sing Sing, Warden Lawes informed Kings County authorities that the prisoner's previ- 55G311 Judge Taylor refused to order Simmons returned, holding that Simmons would be placed "in second jeopardy" a violation of his constitutional rights. The District Attorney then made his application to Supreme Court Justice Lewis. The decision by Justice Lewis, a former District Attorney of Kinsa County, is regarded as an upholding of the Bammes Law amendments, which went into effect July 1 and have been the subject of controversy among judges of the county courts for suing him. The district holds the content of the amended section 1942 and the new section 1943 of the pore law, known as the Baummes memorials, a previous offender must be brought back for resentence if it is shown he is a previous offender. Justice Levine, in his decision, that asserted that the authority of the District Attorney to institute a contempt proceeding when the county Judge denies having a prisoner returned for resentence, has been uphold by Appellate Courts in several States. He then wrote that it was unnecessary to make the prisoner, in this case Stumons, a defendant in the contempt proceedings, as any decision would be when he information. Prior to enactment of section 1913 of the penal law, section 1942, amended, provided that a fourth offender, on conviction, should be sentenced to life. But, after serving the maximum term for the offense, less commutation for good conduct, the prisoner might be parole. The power of the Patricia Board, said the usurper, was taken away in the case of habitual criminals by the Bannies Laws. Would Protect Public. "The offender and victim cannot alone be considered. Atlmost too frequently the rights of the people are overlooked. It does no violence to any constitutional provision for the State to rid itself of broadened offenders. When efforts at reformation have failed, those who commit murder in the first degree inscribe the punishment provided by the statute, and those who commit four offenses of telonies likewise by their acts being upon themselves the punishment fixed by law. "In cases in which extraneous circumstances appear, the power of the Governor may be invoked. The motion for the peremptory order is granted. "Being Judge Taylor's contention that it would be unconstitutional to have Simmons returned for resentence because he was not indicted and convicted as a fourth offender, but as a first offender, Justice Lewis cited a statute of West Virginia. He pointed out that this statute YES, SIR! IT'S A FACT!

"Bill Graves, white, of the Spiritualist Church of Flatbush. While Perry was waiting for an answer from Mrs. Kalish he further added this question: "Does not such a gathering constitute a church, no matter how small the attendance?" The policewoman declined to answer either question. Magistrate Dale dismissed the case without any comment. The same likely known was given a mighty ovation by members of his church following his discharge. He produced a certificate of ordination by the general assembly of the spiritualists when someone asked him if he was a pastor. The policewoman alleged that he told her fortune in his home, which also constitutes his church. The Rev. "Bill" denied this and had several members of his church to testify that, on the night of the visit, no fortune-telling was induced in by the minister. Former Tuskegee Student Married to Miss L.

Negroes Losing Faith, We Learn Kingsley, Speaking in Brooklyn, Says Race Is Drifting From Church A mass movement away from the church has commenced among Negroes, naturally the most religious group in America, the Rev. Harold M. Kingsey of Detroit, director of Negro work in the North for the Congregational Church Extension Boards, said last Thursday night before the Men's Club of the Park Slope Congregational Church. Eight avenue and Second street, paved and quietly recording to Mr. Kingsey, have aroused deep concern among church leaders over the alarming proportions of the movement which hitherto has been almost unsuspected. The latest figures, contained in the Negro Year Book, published by Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, give the total population of the race in this country as 12,000,000, while the church membership is reported to be less than the larger number of and churched" includes adults, although many are infants and children too young to be church members. "The Negroes are drifting from the church," the speaker stated. "because it offers no solution for their new problems. "When the migrant who has come North has successfully adjusted himself to his new and complex environment, he has passed a test in stamina and social vitality that leaves him with eyes opened, sophisticated and hardened. He judges his religion in terms of usefulness and practicality. He is freed from the religious bugaboos of yesterday and from the graveclothes of a dead past. He is conscious of the power which is his master of the man, the harper and the highest economic environment in the world. His church—almost, programless and visionless—appears to him weak, ineffectual and trifling." Otto Paul, president, was chairman. Last Thursday night's meeting was devoted to Ladies' Night and about half of the attendance was women. Refreshments were served. Despondency Said to Have Caused Hall's Death The lifeless body of William Hall, 59, of Dewey avenue, Jamaica, was found on the floor of the kitchen of his home one day last week by neighbors who had come to ask about his health, knowing that he had stayed home and had not gone to work. The gas jets of the kitchen store were all open and gas was escaping into the room. Hall had lived alone for the past month since his wife was killed by an anarchist time. It is believed that despondency forced his act, as he and his wife were always together. Dr. Rosenberg of the Jamaica Hospital pronounced him dead on arrival after various methods to start respiration had failed.

Many Brave Storm to Hear Lecture _ of Carter G. Woodson, Historian Much of History Read Today on Negro Is Mere Prop- aganda to Perpetuate “White Supremacy,” He Holds - Dr. Carter G. Woodson, author of several books on American Negro history; was the principal speaker on a program under the auspices of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History at the St. James’ Pres- byterian Church on Sunday afternoon. A comparatively large audience braved a bitter snow to hear the eminent writer. Musical selections were offered by Mr. P. Elis- worth Harris, violinist; Mr. Gilbert Holland and Miss Helen Dr. Ars, Julia P. H. Coleman, president of the St. James’ Church Forum, opened the meeting.

Sho In turn presented the master of ceremonies, Frederick Johnson, who took charge of the meeting, AML the history we read today, Dr, Woodson said in explaining tho need for study of Negro history, ts not bistory, but “mere propaganda intended to re-enslave the mind of the Negro and teach him to look upon civilization as a white man's clvilization.” it {s the carefully planned propa- ganda of the white man who ac- cepted the legal abolition of slav- err as a fact, but set about to bring the Negro fnto a new state of ondage — mental servitude. For by ‘controlling the mind,” Dr. Woodson sald, “the actions, too, are controlled.” The aim is to develop within the Negro an inferiority complex by wriing and telling aad boasting of the accomplishments of the white race which, the lecturer indicated, were the fruits of centuries and centuries of freedom and develop ment. The result has been not alto gether a failure, for if one “teaches 4 thing for 200 years," tho histo rien amusingly put ' across his point, “a few will be smart enough to learn it.” “J you could go back and studs the history of the world, that which has deen left covered by white his tonlans, you would find achleve ments paraliel 10 eny civilization.” This Dr. Woodson declared is con. tradiction to many prevatiing be Wets that the Negro has no back ground.

Virginia Warwick, one of the famous Mack Sennett Bathing Beauties, she of the dark, vivacious eyes, deserted the lure of the swimming tank and the sandy beach and appears in one of the stellar roles in "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse." a Rex Ingram production for Metro, coming to the Lafayette. Miss Warwick, in her portrayal of Chicla, the sister of the hero in this screen version by June Mathis of the novel by Vincente Blasco ibanez, gives to the Spanish-American beauty of the story that wealth of impulsive girlishness which one imagines such a character should possess. It was no accident or lucky chance that landed Virginia Warwick in "The Four Horsemen." "Mr. Ingram didn't happen to see me wandering about the hotel corridors or behold me dancing in a Los Angeles theatre." Miss Warwick explained, "I knew Mr. Ingram and had been looking for an opportunity to break into dramatic work. Director Ingram is a stickler for types and as I happened to fit his conception of Chichl, the sister of the hero in 'The Four Horsemen,' I got the job." For the first time in quite a long while a feature picture production will share the favor with patrons when Valentino's big picture opens on Monday. S. H.

This constitutes a record for a picture aside from the big spectacles like "Ben Hur," "Old Iron-sides" and other super productions. Some of the cameramen shot from elevated stations in the limbs of trees and others lay on the ground and shot upwards. The entire battery was directed by Sam Wood, who admits it is a record for him despite the fact that he has directed more than a half hundred pictures for the screen. MY Dear Lucette:—This simple epistle is undated, as I am about to remark that it is the 5th day of December, year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and twenty-six, and a day which will be found on the record books of the future, as it brought with it an unusually heavy downfall of snow which has enveloped this section of the country. OF course, I fully realize that it will be hard for you to conceive of any added beauty brought to the Harlem you know so well because of the beautiful white mantle which to thousands will be unwelcome, but today am again in the open spaces of the Island called Long, and a silent prayer of thanks goes up to the Great Unseen for this remaining touch of nature's grandeur as yet undefiled by hand of man. AS far as the eye can see this beautiful white-sheet covers the earth, and in the early morn, when Aurora Borealis will perhaps try to force himself through cloud banks which are still gathered in the east, the sparrows will come out and dot the snow with their little selves seeking the crumbs which they know I am tonight setting aside for them. It is under the influence of these surroundings I can record for you the happenings of the past week or so which came directly under my notice, and I am certain you will find enough of entertainment herein to keep you in good humor until my next. As a result of this camera battery practically every play in this real football game is brought to the screen and no better shots of the "Galloping Ghost" in action have ever been photographed. LAST Friday evening I found myself among the large number-which had turned out to the big affair of the Railroad Brotherhood staged at the Manhattan Casino. Frank Croswalthe, Ashley Totten, Asa Randolph and the balance of that noble crew which has carried the fight for fair recognition for the railroad porter right up the steps of the nice House were out giving the glad hand to hundreds of friends. It was a great day for the public to be in an affair of this kind, for it gives one the impression that the public is with the brotherhood, and this is as it should be. A Warner Production at the Douglas Theatre John Miljan, with "My Official Wife," the Warner picture at the M. S. Danglas Theatre, was born in Lead, South Dakota, and educated at St. Mary's Academy. His first stage appearance was in the repertory company of which Mack Swain, famous as the giant in Chaplin's "Gold Rush," was manager. He then became identified with stock company productions, until in 1915, when he joined the Eleventh Marines and served in France. Since he started in pictures with Shirley Mason in 1923 he has almost invariably cast as the "heavy." Miljan's heavies, however, usually possess a fair supply of humor. It is one of John Miljan's minor ambitions to be the best-dressed man on the screen and his taller bill usually tops the monthly budget. He has appeared in a number of costume pictures, among them being "The Devil's Circus," in which he appeared as Hugo, the lion tamer. Recently he was with Barthelmein in "An Amateur Gentleman," playing the part of a fashionable Londomer of the Eighteenth Century. In "My Official Wife," the Russian thriller which Paul Stein directed and which features Conway Tearle and Irene Rich, Miljan is cast as a swaggering young nobleman, an officer in the Russian Army. BOBBED-HAIR contest was offered as one of the features and at least twenty-seven young women out of thirty today think less of four or five local newspapermen than they did a few hours before the contest. Among the three prize winners we could not help but taking notice of the winner of the first prize, who happened to be Miss Gertrude Williams. This young lady is the daughter of Chief Williams of the Grand Central Station, and perhaps it was appropriate that first honors should go to her. My dear, aside from wearing a bob one should know how to carry the head to get the real effect, and this young lady stepped out with an assurance which could not be denied. FLOYD CALVIN, who represents the Pittsburgh Courier in New York, happened to have been one of the judges, and from what I can learn kept his association with winners in the fear of offending he exhibited when it came to picking winners from a bunch of unusually good-looking young women. Apparently Floyd has not as yet reached that stage in his career where he can appreciate the futility of trying to please each and every one. His look of despair as he tried to extricate himself from what he considered a delicate situation as he tried to explain to one of the contestants was alone worth the journey to the Casino that night. THE time, my dear Lucette, is coming when Calvin will have served his apprenticeship in these diggings and he will then have the pleasure of recliting for the edification of his juvenile progeny, of which he is the proud papa of two, the heartaches which he suffered in blazing a trail for the Courier and making a name for himself among, beg pardon, I mean in Greater New York. It is said of him that he is but a big corn-fed youngster from the Southwestern wilds, with nothing but good in his heart for his fellowman (and woman) and a record breaker in weedling cuts out of every newspaper, both black and white, published here. YOUR dear friend, Mirandy, my dear Lucette, is still among us and never made the trip as Irvin C. Miller's high priced advance man. It is said that he decided to remain and receive the famous Thunder Ming when it was learned that he was selected by that young Aramerican trip, George Schuyler, for the honor. By the way, opening this week's daily record of a contest and coming to Milandy, reminds me that I did prove as successful as they would have you believe. Jay Eddie Edwards, who styles himself a former associate of Flo Ziegler when the university real American Beauty, did his stuff in one "classic" where he promised a revolving stage for the beauties to display their forms upon, but the populace failed to turn out, and if anything revolted, it was Mr. Stucker of the New York News, who, in an unguarded moment, fell on that very stage and almost fractured his leg. Well-Known Musician Dies Professor Gilbert Anderson Passed Away in Chester, Pa. WHERE Wilfred de Pain told you of thousands being on hand for his contest, you can take it from us as nothing but the truth, so help me, Mr. Buchanan of the Savoy, less than four hundred turned out. As we seldom, if ever, take a chance when it comes to the merry quips in this column, we dropped into the amusement palace the night of the affair and, taking particular notice of the slim attendance, asked one of the attendants what was the reason for it. He opined that it was "another of those Howard-Lincoln Classic contests, which would not even be what it is, but for the philanthropic attitude of the boss." So beloved, by this your devoted again proves that it is best to wait for these letters before accepting what you read in some of the sundown sheets around here. (Special to N. Y. Amsterdam News) CHESTER, Pa. Dec. 2—Prof. Edward Gilbert Anderson, one of the most noted Negro musicians in the United States, died Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock at the residence of his brother, Prof. J. Frank Anderson, at 1510 West Seventh street. He suffered a stroke two months ago at his New York home and recently came here, where his condition became critical. THE beauty of this Long Island Sunday almost made me forget an outstanding incident which occurred here recently and which you must be advised of. Do you remember some months back reading of my prediction that the new sheet, called the Gazette, leaving the field after the conclusion of the political wars? Well, again, an boast of dealing with nothing but the truth, as we were telephonically advised direct from the office of the Gazette that the paper had suspended. Which directs attention to Floyd Snelson, who, I am told, has disappeared at a time when America's leading colored photographer, Mr. Elocha, would have a few words with Floyd, who I tried to tell all hands before his disappearance, was headed for Madagascar. They failed to heed our advice and now they have started a chorus wherein the chief song is. "Without You the World Don't Seem the Same." he is survived by a son, William W. Anderson, and two brothers. Prof. J. Frank Anderson and Rev. J. E. A. John, district superintendent of the colored Delaware Methodist Conference. WELL, dear girl, this is rather lengthy and I must consider coming to a close. However, before I do, be it known that we will attempt to bring out an illustrative photogravure section in the Christmas issue of the Amsterdam News. We are making an attempt to give our reader a sense of art, which will be devoid of those car-marks so plainly seen in the nature around here—thingy gotten out for the sake of a few quick dials, we are keeping our readers in mind in trying to present this mark of appreciation for their support during the past year. We will write soon again. Prof. Anderson, born in Chester, early developed musical tendencies which later brought him fame. He mastered a large number of musical instruments, and when a young man here taught piano. He developed as a composer and orchestral leader and the confines of Chester proved too narrow for his ability. He organized the Philadelphia Concert Orchestra, which became noted for its unusual finesse and was highly praised by leading musical critics.

It was at the Casino where leading Broadway singers and dancers visited to hear the latest compositions and to secure material for their acts. Prof. Anderson's compositions brought him much fame and also cash remuneration and he was ranked as one of the leading musical lights of New York's Harlem district. The funeral on Sunday afternoon there was one of the largest Negro burial ceremonies in years. The Harlem, N. T., Symphony Orchestra, of 15 pieces, and the Philadelphia Concert Orchestra, of 60 pieces, supplied the music. A large delegation of the Manhattan order of Elks, the largest Negro body of Elks in the country, attended the funeral. The services were held in St. Daniel's Methodist Church.

On Monday evening of this week a friend of Utopia approached Mr. Frank Schiffman of the Lafayette and in less than two minutes Mr. Schiffman decided that a check for fifty dollars would help the work of the Utopia Neighborhood Club.

The program reads "A revival of the songs and jokes that all the world loves," which means that the hundreds that will try to gain admission to this playhouse on that evening will witness a rather unique and historic event. Aside from the thirty-five trained performers, there are to be several added attractions, any one of which might competently stand alone.

Hinga Dismond, Emory Dyson, Leonard Clark and Dr. Gertrude Curtis: Pioneer Teacher of Negroes Honored by New York University The University of the State of New York honored itself two weeks ago in bestowing upon Miss Emily Howland the degree of Doctor of Letters. On the 20th of November Miss Howland celebrated her one hundredth birthday, a central New York teacher, her dearest declared her to be. She has been and is far more than that. Born a Quaker and true to that noble faith all her life, Miss Howland was one of the pioneers in teaching the Negro at a time when to do so one courted mob violence, and, in Southern states, long terms of punishment. During the Civil War she took charge of one of the great camps for the slaves, and this has supported Negro education everywhere by her precept, her example, her large and generous financial gifts. Side by side with this great service she fought for woman suffrage and temperance; her one great cause today is that of peace. At her great age she still manages two farms and a school and is a director in a bank. Best of all, her soul is as young and forward looking as ever. Then she went on October 25, a similar honor was bestowed upon Dr. Frank Sheldon Fosdick, for fifty years a teacher in Buffalo schools and the father of Raymond and the Rev. Harry Emerson Fosdick. By a happy choice the latter was asked to make the up- on this rare occasion. Among other things he said that: The end of all true education is to produce genuinely independent individuals capable of taking intelligent charge of their own lives. There can have been in history few times when an independent minority was more deeply needed than now—men and women who dare to think their own thoughts, stand on their own feet, take charge of their own lives. We need men and women who know that the economic order cannot remain as it is, that we must look forward to a more decent day when the profit motive sinks and the service motive rises into the ascendancy; men and women who see that a narrow nationalism will not do, that patriotism is not enough. Dr. Forsick must have had Emily Dorsick as a friend as in sighs From The Nation. Ruth Dennis to Direct Christmas Radio Program Mrs. Ruth Dennis, 422 St. Nicholas avenue, is to direct the Christmas program from 1:50 to 2:50 on Friday, December 24, over Station WGBS.

The Yonkers team, evidently dazed by the passing attack of the Brooklynites, was never in the money; and with the exception of Monte was held practically scoreless. Thirteen points were all they could gather. Of these, Monte made twelve, leaving the lone point to "Hacky" Rhone on a foul toss. The guarding of the "Soups" was faultless. Edwards and Thompson holding their men scorless, while Herndon and Stevens permitted only one foul tally by the above mentioned Rhone. Bartlett, at pit- lot, also played a fine game, despite his opponent's high score. Monte was tossing them in any- where and anyhow.

Holmes replaced Edwards at guard, Niles going to center for Bartlett. Playing under A. A. U., rules the game was much faster.

ATHENIANS IN LOSING CONTEST The crack Panthers of Philadelphia defeated the Athenians on the latter's floor last Friday evening a week ago before a crowd of nearly 2,000. The game was all Panthers, who seemed at all times to be doing the proper thing. Co-ordinating perfect pass work with accurate shooting and airtight defensive work, the Quakers jumped into an early lead, never to be headed. Half time found the score 16-9 in the Panthers' favor. The second half found the Athenians making many changes in their efforts to get going, but none would bring the desired result. The final score was 26-15. "Buck" Willis. "Jackie" Bothards and "Bill" Yancey starred for the winners. Voney performed best for the locals. Howard University will meet the Athenians on December 10. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 8, 1926 FLOWERS WHIPS SAMMY VOGEL Funny how the big newspapers soft-pedaled on the result of the Bruce Flowers-Sammy Vogel bout at the Walker Athletic Club after the details went in showing that Flowers was the master of the situation from the start of the battle to the finish. Before the fight they were telling us how it would lead to a chance for the victor to get a rap at the crown worn by the champion of the class; but Flowers won, and that made a big difference. Bruce went in and lammed Vogel all around the lot. Sammy not having a chance, although touted as one of the best in the game. If they want to be fair they will now give Flowers the chance they were keeping on ice for the Vogel boy. Canada Lee kept up his big swing of victories when he defeated Bert Lamy in six rounds. Canada has been coming right along, and so far his professional record bids fair to surpass his amateur showing, as he has yet to lose even a decision since he started in the money. Commissioners of Eastern Colored League to Meet The Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League will hold their annual meeting at Philadelphia Tuesday, December 14, at which time plans will be outlined for the coming season. While the circuit finished the past season with seven clubs, several cities have made application for a franchise and the Commissioners will decide upon the eighth entry. Also the meeting will be a for-runner of the joint session with the Western Negro League that is scheduled to be held at Detroit in January. Anderson on the Classic Nov. 29, 1926. News.

Lincoln eleven, told me after the best team in colored football. We suggest an easy method for plays this year. Pick the entire Howard as the next expert. Finally, there is have to offer before retiring to the S Howard team will remain intact and Friend Dougherty, me said on my promise to forward some loose chatter on last week's gridiron debate. Looking back at the 1926 edition of the Howard-Lincoln classic, one noted several interesting sidelights apart from the playing of the game itself. To begin, the much belittled and the equally much defended Watson system received a rousing vote of confidence from the assembled multitude, which proves that any system which wins receives a glad hand from the dear old public. For three years cynics have admitted that the aforementioned system was a whale on defense but a spring lizard on offense. This appraisal was partially confirmed by the record of the Howard teams under the Watson regime. During the three years this system has been in operation only three touchdowns have been scored against Howard and no two have been made by the same team. The 1926 combination has shown both a great running attack and an aerial offense that is as sound as an American dollar. There is enough deception in it to keep the opposition guessing at all times. The huddle system eliminated the possibility of signal stealing, which heretofore had been an established industry on the Howard campus. Again, the game vindicated the wisdom of the Board of Athletic Control in withdrawing from the so-called Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association several seasons previously. Several members of the 1926 Howard ensemble, although enjoying their first experience as college students, would have been declared ineligible under the ancient C. I. A. a. code. Coles, Brown, Miller, Tyson, Ross would have been classified as "tramp athletes" by certain pseudoquillpushers seeking to break into the spotlight. Moreover, a Howard team has at least an outside chance of being selected champion of something, if not of the Virginia-North Carolina League. In cementing the "Good Old Howard" spirit, many divergent factors entered. First, a strong sense of race pride in our first Negro president made dissension persona non grata in the student body; second, for the first time since he has held the reins of authority. Watson secured discipline in the squad. Infractional players felt the heavy hand of the law in 1926. Aiding and abetting in these achievements were the assistant coaches, Long and Doakes, disciples of Watson in former years, and Captain Smith. The latter has stamped himself not only an all-American player but also a great field leader. Finally, a brief analysis of the game. Jack Coles marshaled his eleven troopers like Von Hinderburg on the Belgian frontier. The deception which started Lincoln on the toboggan began early in the first quarter. Jack had been maneuvering all plays to the side of the line to which his players shifted after the huddle. At the psychological moment when Lincoln expected a repetition of the same tactics the wind shifted and the hurricane fell upon them. The next play started from the same formation, then suddenly reversed and developed into an off-tackle play on the opposite side of the line. That line opened up a hole big enough for a train to pass. And maybe Coles did not pass through it. I say maybe he did not pass through it. That blue-derived boy zigzagged and squirmed his way to within striking distance of the lion's inner breastworks. From then on it was just too bad. The hand of Fate was upon the Lincolnites. Howard's line was hitting on eight cylinders and the "Four Horsemen" were doing their "stuff" as if possessed with legions of devils. Late in the fourth quarter Simpson decided to exhibit his basketball and track skills by picking one of Ross' unerring passes out of the clear ozone and micandering to neutral territory. Hibbler, the galloping ghost of Chester County, failed to gallon and "Julie" Martin never had a chance to get started. U. S. Young, coach of the Lincoln eleven, told me after the game that the Howard eleven is the best team in colored football. With this thought in mind, I am suggesting an easy method for picking your all-American eleven this year. Pick the entire Howard team and you will be as near right as the next expert. Finally, there is only one other bit of bad news I have to offer before retiring to the Stove League, namely: "The entire Howard team will remain intact another year. Your old friend. attempt to spill any heated ink on Flowers and Mickey Walker in Chicago will be said in the matter, hence of the Daily News to tell the colthinks of the battle in which the titls. Remember, now, everything said by Mr. Galico, a white man,ey battle, Says Mr. Galico in the IT would be useless for us to attempt to spill nay heated ink on that recent battle between Tiger Flowers and Mickey Walker in Chicago. Much has been said and much will be said in the matter, hence we deliberately choose Paul Gallico of the Dally News to tell the colored boys and girls just what he thinks of the battle in which the title is supposed to have changed hands. Remember, now, everything said in these columns today is being said by Mr. Gallico, a white man, who gives an opinion on that phoebe battle. Says Mr. Gallico in the next paragraph and right on down to the end: If the boys and girls, this brisk morning, expect to find in this Col. any exaltation over the return of the middleweight championship of the world to a white man named Mickey Walker, managed by another accredited Nordic, Jack Kearns, turn he hastily away from this printed page, seek ye elsewhere, because it isn't gonna be. This House of Hammer is today given over to plaintive moans at the idiotic piece of robbery perpetrated in Chicago last Friday night at a place called the Coliseum. Tiger Flowers, probably the most inoffensive and willing colored fighter in the ring today, seems destined to be burgled of decisions at least once every six months. SAY that the Tigah is a messy, mussy fighter who lacks a finishing punch, and I will agree with you. Commeut further upon the extreme fragility of his lower maxillary and I must say that such is indeed the case. But, zounds, if the man isn't willing to take a chance with a chin labeled "handle with care." He carries it into the ring, he fights middleweights, light-heavies and heavyweights. He escorted his Andy Gumpian mouth into an enclosure that contained Sam Langford at the same moment, and who of today's heavyweights would have had that much courage." The Tigah may have been a champion of limited ability, but the man was willing to fight anyone, and he did. As far as I know, there were no bars up. The same can hardly be said of his white conqueror, Master Miguel Walker. As a champion, the grimacing Mique, with his professional smile, was just a plain phoey. He laid his title tenderly in the icebox, snapped the padlock and threw away the key. He was very much of a nuisance. THE Mickey won his middleweight title on a rank decision. Every newspaper reporter I read gave the majority of the rounds to Flowers. Mr. Benjamin Yanger, referee, once known as the Tipton Slasher, simply pulled either a stupid or a sinny one. Before I send up any bosannahs for the new champion I would like to see how he comports himself. Mind you, I am not pointing any finger at scorn at Chicago. We have had them as rank and ranker here, notably the one in which this same Flowers slaughtered Mike McTigue and then was solemnly declared the loser. I am merely complaining at the idea of having Kearns and Walker back in town with a championship. OF course, this has all the earmarks of persecution, and even Jackie Farrell will tell me what a fine little fellow Mickey is and what a wonderful home life he has, but I don't see what that has to do with it. The public doesn't pay admission to his house to see him sit before the fireside with the wife, the kiddies and the dogs. The public supports boxing, and boxing lives only when titles are strongly competed for. Mickey Walker was a very poor welterweight champion who protected his title with no-decision fights. He consistently ducked Dave Shade until he was so overpaid for fighting him that Kearns just couldn't see it go. There is nothing to lead me to believe that he will be a better middleweight boss. If anything, he must be worse, since when he won the welter title he was young and strong. Now he is a very much punched up person who will be taken by the first good middleweight he meets, including Tiger Flowers. True, there are not a lot of good middlewegs these days, but it remains to be seen who Mickey's opponents will be. It also remains to be seen whether Kearns and Walker will live up to their promise to give Tiger Flowers a return battle in N.Y. York City, where Mickey is a sure thing to lose, because Flowers can outpoint him. I will believe it when I see it, and not before. This should not come under the head of prejudice. It is only reasonable to assume Mr. Kearns will endeavor to keep Mickey champion as long as he can by any means he can. He will be considered smart by the wise boys for having maneuvered his charge into another championship, but that is about as far as it ever goes these days. Championships are never won. They are maneuvered, and the public is always the loser. It doesn't get a run for its money. THIS Column is open to conviction on the score of Mickey Walker. This piece will make it thoroughly disliked in Jersey, where Mique hails from, but a teller ought to be allowed to get a few things off his chest now and then. If Walker and his manager will show themselves to be good sports, willing to fight for reasonable money against opponents who can be conceded a chance, this section of the paper will do a public right-about-face. THE Tigab and his manager seem to have exacted their pound of flesh as it is when they got Kearns to post $5,000 bond in the event that Flowers lost the decision. That wasn't such a sweet scented business as it was, but, then what idea of insurance is there about any part of the boxing game?

Brooklyn Champs to Meet Buffaloes Here Dec. 14 Those crack Brooklynites known as the Superiors will travel to New York on the night of December 14 to hook up with the famous Buffaloes in a battle which bids fair to be one of the hardest fought seen in this city for a long time. As stated elsewhere in today's ans to Meet Howard paper, the Buffaloes are the champions of the Eastern Colored League and will enter the game undefeated so far this year. Both the teams are fast and will give the fans a run for their money. This game will take place at the Renaissance Casino. All roads should lead to the popular little hall next Tuesday night. The older boys in the game will be on hand to see the youngsters battling for supremacy.

PARRISS. -: A Negro Bank at the Front in Philadelphia Civil Disabilities of the Harlem Negro MAGAZINE SECTION CLASSIFIED ADS An Ordinance. Designating and approving the Citigrant and Southern Bank & Trust Company as a depository of the City's money. Section 1. The Council of the City of Philadelphia ordains that the Citigrant and Southern Bank & Trust Company be, and is hereby designated and approved as a depository of the City's money: Wanted, that the said Company shall pay the rate of interest required by the ordinance approved the 30th day of July, 1920, entitled "An Ordinance regulating the deposit of City money, and fixing the amount of interest to be paid thereon," and shall first pay into the City treasury the amount of fifty (50) dollars for the publication of this ordinance. Must: Davidson James Chief of Council Lekentz & Hall President of Council Approved the fourth day of June, A. Q., 1926 Morton Franklin Morgan of Philadelphia N BANK in the past few years has forged ahead more rapidly than has Citizens & Southern Bank and Trust Company of Philadelphia. This bank began operation under its charter on the 16th of January, 1920, and has steadily increased since that date. It has increased in resources nearly $130,000. It has steadily arrived in confidence among the people. The four years that it operated as a private bank it encountered and overcame various difficulties consequent upon the failure of one or two other institutions. It has now surmounted every difficulty and is now on the way to a successful career. It owns its own building and fixtures, and it does not owe a penny on any of its resources. It has succeeded in becoming not only a city depository, but also a state depository. It is building up in the East among both white and colored a much needed confidence in the Negro's ability to do banking. It has formed an alliance with some of the best white bankers in Philadel- WHEN we speak of civil disabilities in any reasonable sense of the term, we mean that situation affecting a citizen which impairs the rights and civilises which accrue to him by virtue of his citizen- state, which in turn impose definite obligations upon the state in relation to the citizen. To be specific, In the United States we hold that the State is created for the se and protection of the citizen, and not, as in certain actions of Europe, the citizen created for the use of the state. In the United States, just so long as the citizen keys the laws, pays taxes, bears arms, and recognizes in authority of the State, it is presumed to be the duty if the State to make the citizen secure in his person, property and liberty, or freedom of action. ship. The plain implication from this proposition is that a citizen has rights and privileges which may be impaired. This being the case, let us examine the relationship which the citizen bears to the State and see whether any such rights and privileges do accrue. It has long been the settled conception of western political thinkers that a citizen was certain duties to his state, which in turn impose state in relation to the citi united States we hold that se and protection of the portions of Europe, the citi state. In the United State leys the laws, pays taxes in authority of the State, if the State to make the power and liberty or for just so long, then, as the citizen keeps his side of the civic rement, just so long, then, let it be the duty of the State keep its side. If, then, the it fail to provide the citizen in such civic instruments as aid choose him to take advantage of his service under this moment the function of the has been required to warrant the best of the citizen and civil in the work. Marlton Negro bears this A. B. Edgar M. Grey definite obligations upon the en. To be specific. In the the State is created for the citizen, and not, as in certain created for the use of the just so long as the citizen bears arms, and recognizes is presumed to be the duty citizen secure in his person, dom of action. same relationship to the State and city of New York, and any failure on the part of the State or city to safeguard the rights of the Negro in Harlem places a definite civil disability upon him. Since there is no such thing as a personal State, it is necessary that we consider the State as represented by certain political organizations, departments, bureaus and the like. Let us examine the functions phia. It has gained the confidence of some of the ablest colored people in the 'City of Brotherly Love," and has on its board some of the best business men of the city. The general purpose of Citizens & Southern Bank and Trust Company is to make of itself a great service station to assist its group of people in saving money for the purchase of homes, for the payment of their taxes upon their property, for the education of their children, and for saving money to obtain various comforts in life. Its motto to the people is: "Save for a Purpose; Save to Make a Profit on Your Earnings." During the past year Citizens & Southern Bank and Trust Company has fostered a very successful Christmas Club, and has paid out during this Christmas season a very large amount of money to its Christmas savers and depositors. The following is a condensed statement of the condition of the institution at the close of business November 9, 1926: or workings of these various civic departments in relation to the Harlem Negro. In this community, where there is presumably more than 200,000 citizensaliens enjoy under international agreements the same general privileges as the citizen) it is evident that the various departments of the city government do not function for the colored man as they do for others of the citizenry. In order that there may not be any mistake, let us examine in relation to our own community another community which is a part of the city government and see whether it is true that the city does not function properly for the Negro in comparison. Take for example the colony or city division which is known as Upper Yorkville, whose area is a little over one and one-half square miles and whose population is said to be 188,844 persons. The racial character of its residents is as follows: Jews, Italians, Scotch, Irish and a few Negroes and a sprinkling of Asiatic. The political arrangement, according to Mr. Donald Walsh, famous Tammany Hall historian, is Democratic. The city roster of officials shows that there are two municipal court justices who come from the community of Upper Yorkville. The Tenement House Commissioner of the City of New York comes from that community, and one of the under-commissioners of the Department of Street Cleaning also lives there. The present Commissioner of Dockts lives in East Eighty-sixth street and the Postmaster of the East Eighty-seventh Street Post Office is an old Yorkville politician. These are only a few of the THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 8, 1926 COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA OFFICE OF STATE TREASURER HARRISBURG --- Nove enclosed herewith please find draft Mellon National Bank, Pittsburgh, Pa. due to the order of your institution to $10,000.00, for deposit to the THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, General Fund Account Kindly acknowledge receipt of the issuance office.

To account for this with the argument that it is because Yorkville is a Democratic community does not hold good, for if we compare it with the Chelsea district in West Twenty-ninth street we find that the latter has always contributed more votes to the Democratic party than Yorkville and has only a few minor city jobs to its credit. The fact is that Yorkville community, especially Upper Yorkville, has definite political and civic cohesion. white colleague leaves the mem nunity helpless. The theory is officer would not an unfair advan citizen, but this ory. It appears to a uniform on t man, regardless color, makes his proper to be be that this condition suffer from the Harlem has only fair representation in one city department—the Police Department. And yet this advantage has proven itself to be a decided disadvantage. Nearly all of the colored men in the Police Department have been assigned to the Sixteenth Precinct, located in West 135th street. As a result, the benefit in increased prestige which should come to the Negro race by virtue of the presence of these colored officers on the force of the Police Department is entirely absent. Most of the colored policemen should be stationed in communities where the population is white. There the white children would learn to obey the request for order of a colored man, and the grown-ups would be forced to follow the instructions of the colored officers, thereby learning to accept the members of the colored race as their equals. As it is now, the colored officer is quartered in his own community and no added prestige comes to the race by his presence in the Police Department. Besides this, certain abuses have come to the community which had not existed before. Take the matter of police abuses of colored citizens, for instance: The colored officer often outdoes his CASH: In vault and due from banks.....

MONEY LOANED: Of this amount $85,000.00 is secured by collateral and the balance is secured by reliable endorsements and judgments of record..... BANK BUILDING, FURNITURE and FIXTURES..... ACCRUED INTEREST RECEIVABLE: This amount was paid as interest earned on Bonds bought..... OTHER ASSETS: This item includes miscellaneous capital expenditures made by the Company white colleague in brutality, and leaves the members of the community helpless to complain. The theory is that the colored officer would not naturally take an unfair advantage of a colored citizen, but this is only a theory. It appears to be the fact that a uniform on the back of any man, regardless of his race or color, makes him feel that it is proper to be brutal. We know that this condition exists, but we suffer from the disability of not being able to remedy this situation. In 1921 the Democratic party based its campaign among the citizens of Harlem upon a promise to admit colored citizens to positions in the city government that had previously been denied them. After the campaign nothing was done to make this promise good, and the colored citizens of the Democracy were powerless to enforce their demands for a realization of the promises. We were then told that we should have Tenement House Inspectors, Street Cleaning Inspectors, Food Inspectors, Sanitary Inspectors and the like, but we never realized this hope, and today the community is in a worse condition than at any time in its history. The food inspection in Harlem is most abominable; the practice of adulterating the milk and other "loose" food liquids is most dangerous to the health of the community, and yet we have not the power to bring about an investigation of the general inspection system which prevails in the community; nor even to receive the proper response to complaints which have been made to different departments of the city government. Without greater political co RESOURCES November 8th, 1926. EDITORIALS --- SPECIAL ARTICLES REAL ESTATE AND FINANCIAL ADVERTISEMENTS hesion, no reliance can be placed in the present city administration to remedy these evils. Again take the Fifth Assembly District, Manhattan, as an instance: Here is a district which has always been known to go Socialistic and the proportion of its representation in the departments of the city and State governments is tremendous when compared to that which Harlem enjoys. Day after day one may meet young men and women in Harlem who complain that they are denied opportunities in the city government to work even after they have passed the civil service examinations. All sorts of excuses are given to them as to why they are not given employment, even though there is a colored member on the Civil Service Commission. School facilities are poor, notwithstanding the fact that Mayor Hylan gave us two new school buildings. There is only one colored fire fighter in the Fire Department. The interests of the community are not being served, although there is a colored man holding a seat in the Board of Aldermen. Street cleaning and street sprinkling in Harlem are totally inadequate; the method of garbage and refuse removal indicate that no consideration to sanitation is made in relation to the operation of that system of the "colored belt." One needs but observe the garage of loose ashes and dirt which accompanies the removal of garbage and ashes from the streets and avenues of Harlem to realize the truth of the foregoing assertion. There are still stores, eating places, theatres and other public places in the vicinity which do Bank President Major R. R.

A barber shop is still at 101 West 136th street which does not permit its chairs to be occupied by colored patrons. The Harlem Hospital situation is still unsatisfactory. Dead animals are permitted to lie in the streets for days. The Commissioner of Weights and Measures seems not to know that this part of the city is still considered a part of the city scheme of government; and sharp business men, black and white, Jew and Gentile, continue to rob ounces and tons in weight annually from the housewives of the community. The problem of inadequate playground facilities still remains unsolved. The courts, especially the one called the Heights Court, are still denying justice even to those of the citizenry who can pay for expensive lawyers. And yet, with all of these disabilities staring the community in the face, the citizenry goes its way rejoicing without care, without interest, without concern. Lack of organization has destroyed the ballot as a weapon of defense against these disabilities. Our institutions—the church, the fraternal organization, the civic and political organizations are still too interested in personalities to grasp the simple proposition that we must unite or perish. The time has come when a new day must dawn in the matter of political interest. All of the social and educational units of the community must take on a new political aspect, in order that the colored citizen may exact from those who now disregard his rights as a citizen the same rights and privileges enjoyed by other citizens.

The representatives of all parties—Democratic, Socialist and Republican—must be made to see the wisdom of coming together on one sound platform for the Negro, however they may differ on other measures. All should meet on common ground and work out a program for the betterment of the community which will remove these civil disabilities from which we now suffer. Women in Politics The problem of bringing intelligent feminine opinion into the political life of the State recently agitated the annual convention the New York State League of Women Voters held at Syracuse. Woman ever has been the motive power behind the thought and work of man, usually laboring for the betterment of mankind through the home, unrewarded and unsung. With emancipation that has come through hurdles of many time-worn conventions, her scope now is extended to the vast field of industry, where she competes successfully and shoulder to shoulder with the opposite sex. Her active interest in political problems will bring, as a matter of course, the keen intellect and intuitive analysis necessary to achieve and maintain high ideals. That such precepts governed the lofty intellects of political history in these United States there cannot be doubt. That the principles involved are best protected by Republican policies is a matter of which the unblessed student of either sex may soon convince himself.

Rumble Off for Sing Sing Prison (Continued from Page 1.) lice in New York County, having en personally filed these by him. However, after the County Clerk did testified that no such certi- ture appeared in his files, the dendant corrected his statement by being that he now recalled that he instructed his Lawyer, Dz- G, goodwin, white, of this city, The defendant made a miscreable lessness. His attempts to be bewd and crafty led him into inconsistent statements. The State claimed that the swinging of Adorno was only one act in a common scheme and plan to handle the public., and that he by the same method fleecedorge L. Brothers of $100. Alex Grant and Jack Linsky of user funds. The District Attorney Ure approved that on July 1, 1925, that Adorno complained to the District Attorney's office. Rumble accompanied by his lawyer came to office and it was agreed that the matter would be dropped and would not be prosecuted if he turned the $1,500. Rumble, seemingly in compliance th this agreement, gave Adorno free checks, one dated July 1, for $400, and two dated ahead $500. The three checks were shonored and hence this prosecu- IVE PRE-DATED CHECKS. Louis A. Lavelle, attorney for mule, claimed that the two pre-tested checks were promissorytes and the crime thereon be merged with a civil course action, and that the State had power to prosecute the defendant. Judge Collins agreed that the dated checks were mere promissory notes, but refused to hold at their extinguished the criminal action. When the verdict of guilty was addered, Judge Collins in open art stated that the defendant's in attorney and the Assistant strict Attorney who tried the plebe advised the defendant to ange his plea from not guilty I accept an opportunity to plead attempted lacey in the sec. degrees, but that the defendant so confident of his ability to rebooble people that he refused I took his claim in court. The war was look- ed upon by many people as a financial genius and a millionaire. During the early period of the political fight of 1924 he was strongly sponsored as a Republican candidate for the United States Congress from the Twenty-first Congressional District of New York. The defendant gave his age as 37 and his birthplace as Mexico, stating that he became a citizen of this country in 1910. It has been discovered, however, that he comes from a large and excellent family in one of the eastern states. He is his native country when on trial in order to spare his family the pangs of shame incident to his conviction. The man looked older than his 37 years. His condition is explained by the fact that since the latter part of 1923 he has lived in hiding and that he was only recently apprehended. He was sentenced by Judge Collins on December 7. Mrs. Williams Awarded Alimony (Continued from Page 1.) ing of Mrs. Williams' troubles, was attached. In the meantime, Mrs. Williams telephoned her brother in St. Louis to find out if he had received such a letter from their brother Richard. The doctor was not at home, so she talked with his wife. Mrs. Gregg said that she nor Dr. Gregg had received a letter from Richard ("Tonkey") Gregg in more than a year. AIR MAIL SAVES DAY. Another long-distance call by Mrs. Williams to St. Louis put her in connection with her brother, who promised to send to New York by air mail a sword statement to the effect that he had not heard from his brother Richard. The air mail letter came on Thursday morning. Investigations show that William Blekley was not in town between May 25 and June 17. 1925, and therefore could not have been at 660 St. Nicholas avenue on June 3 or 4. 1925. VISITED BLEKLEY WHEN HE WAS ILL. He was at one time sick with the cripe and Mrs. Williams went to see him. During her visit of not more than 45 minutes there two elderly women of age and two responsible men present. It was then, it is alleged, that Miss Cheeborough came in and made a scene because Mrs. Williams was there (Miss Cheeborough, it is alleged, was in love with Bleckley).

Wednesday, December 8, 1926 Buy Christmas Seals THE greatest gift is life, but man is not privileged to give that. However, the next greatest gift is health, and that man can give by buying Christmas Seals again this year. If every man and woman will buy a few of the little health stamps the billion that must be sold this Christmas season will quickly be distributed and another year of effective warfare against the white plague will be assured. The Christmas Seal is the standard of one of the most hopeful and dramatic fights ever made against disease. This fight is being made against one of the oldest plagues that have afflicted man. For thirty centuries the dread disease has gone steadily on, marking its victims and leaving them to a lingering death. The approach of the disease is so slow and gives so little warning that for many centuries no attempt was made to stamp it out or to prevent the spread of infection. Other plagues got in their devastating work so quickly and openly that man was moved to organize for self-protection and succeeded in wiping them out. Finally man launched his fight against the white plague and immediately began to gain ground. It is estimated that tuberculosis in the United States wipes out a small-sized city every year. It is also estimated that to endure the disease in its present stage for the next thirty-five years would cost the nation twenty-six billion dollars. In the last twenty years education and sanitation have combined to cut the death rate from tuberculosis in two. Medical experts estimate that keeping the disease under control for thirty-five years will mean virtually exterminating it. Will the public give seven billions of dollars in the next thirty-five years to abolish tuberculosis or will it permit tuberculosis to take from it twenty-six billions of dollars and many thousands of lives? That is the challenge which the nation answers every Christmas. THE BEST WAY we know to be Christmas shopping is with the use of one hundred or more Christmas Seals, on sale from now to Christmas. No other purchase must the Yuletide season has as many possibilities of spreading joy and g THE BEST WAY we know to begin Christmas shopping is with the purchase of one hundred or more Christmas Seals, on sale from now until Christmas. No other purchase made during the Yuletide season has as many possibilities of spreading joy and good cheer as these little guardians of health your health and the health of the community in which you live. THE New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, which sponsors the sale as a means for the raising of funds with which to carry on its work, has not overlooked Harlem as a field worthy of its efforts, and spends by far each year more money in the community than it realizes from the sale of the Seals. RESIDENTS of Harlem's exclusive residential blocks and those who live in crowded tenement houses, rich and poor, old and young, are benefited by the health work made possible by the sale of these Seals, and each should purchase his share. EDITORIAL PAGE The Employment Situation The Employment Situation THE TWO PRINCIPAL reasons advanced by many proprietors and managers of Harlem stores for their failure to give young Negro men and women an opportunity to work at some of the worth-while jobs at their disposal have but a smattering of truth in them. One is that patrons, including Negro patrons, do not care to be waited on by Negroes, and the other is that Negroes are not prepared for work, except in menial capacities. IN A NEWS ARTICLE printed elsewhere in this issue, we present the names of a few Harlem store and shop keepers who are employing Negroes in worth-while occupations, evidently to advantage, or they would not continue their employment. We have met Negroes of the handkerchief-head type who do not like to be served or waited on in stores and shops by Negroes, but this type is fast dying out. Negroes are beginning to realize that the colored face in a store in a job other than that of porter or maid is a sign of progress. THEN, there are Negroes in Harlem whose ways of living are so precarious and whose expenditures are so questionable that they are afraid to let their right hand know what the left is doing. These prefer to trust their secrets with white clerks and collectors, because of a mistaken notion that there is less likelihood of them becoming public and reaching their friends and acquaintances, thus destroying the house of cards they have built about themselves. There is a certain confidential relationship which enters into most business transactions, and the Negro salesman or saleswoman is no slower in finding it out than a white one. TO SAY THAT THE NEGRO is not prepared for higher positions in business enterprises is to advance the same time-worn excuse the white South advances to hold the Negro in subjection and deny him his rights as a man and citizen. The South fails to give the Negro the same educational facilities it places at the disposal of whites, denies him the opportunity to make an honest living, deprives him of his political rights, and then points him out as an unworthy citizen. THE HARLEM EMPLOYER would refuse to employ the Negro in capacities other than as a menial, no matter how well he is prepared by training and education for better jobs, and advances this lack of practical experience as an excuse for not giving him an opportunity. How can it be otherwise so long as the door of opportunity is closed? And when and how is it to be opened? FORTUNATELY, as we pointed out many months ago, the whole employment situation in Harlem is in the hands of the Negroes themselves. Never mind the excuses. Make it profitable for stores in Harlem to employ Negroes by patronizing, "whenever possible," those stores that do employ them, and those who practice discrimination in their employment personnel will not be found slow in changing their tactics. BEFORE going on your Christmas shopping tours, consult the advertisements in The Amsterdam News. They will save you both time and money, and we will appreciate it. FACTS AND FABLES ANYBODY ever hear a flapper sing "Home, Sweet Home"? CHRISTMAS savings' funds are ripe enough to pick. GRANDDAD may have been a sod bus- ter, but not on the golf links. Impressions of Dixie BACK in New York City from my second trip this year to the land of cotton — and hemp! — I find myself missing two things very much — reversely. The first is the jim-crow car. It seems too good to be true that I can enter a street car and sit where I please, and having once sat, rear or front, can devote my mind to other things without having to shift back and still back, two or three times, or be rudely disturbed by the conductor's "Get back boy." The second is the distinctive friendliness and geniality of the Southern so-called Negro. Oppression and laughter are not exactly affinities, but the truth is that the so-called Negro seems happiest where he seems most oppressed—seems, because oppression is a state of mind. There is more ready illiwell against white people in the North than in the South. Yes, the Sunny South it is in more ways than one. Of course, I speak now and always of the state of mind, not of the few but of the many. Everywhere except in Atlanta, where but for the Jim-crow car and the rigid segregation in such places as the colored people are permitted to go, the Negro psychology is northern—I found the same expansiveness and warmth—everywhere invitations to dine, to speak in churches, high schools, colleges, at medical associations, parties, everywhere persons placing cars at my disposal taking me sometimes to work at the hospital, almost every instance had come into the town a perfect stranger. I found many myths, southern cooking for instance, but southern hospitality is a reality. Prior to 1619 I visited, superciliously, every southern State, wondering why anyone on earth could be content to stay, south, or, having got away, should want to return. I still feel the same, but can understand it better now: the magnet is the friendlier companionship. The southern Negro and the northern one, the extent of which is rendered even more provincial and herelike than the usual run of humanity by centuries of restriction; hence he is generally uneasy, socially, except among members of his own group. Protest against segregation and the jim-crow car usually comes from northern, so-called, Negroes, certainly not from well-to-do southern Negroes, who usually have their own cars. Some of the foregoing may be considered complimentary and, if so, I am going to ask my southern Negroes how to protect their mouths, not swallow it all now, as I shall have other things to say later. I have learned that when one criticises the south adversely he is likely to draw the fire of most persons, colored and white, north of the line, far from imaginary, drawn by Messrs. Mason and Dixon. Why pick on the south, they flare; you have segregation and race riots north, too? Remedy conditions there first. I soon found it unwise to criticise conditions while there and refrained. I also got similar small thanks from the English people when I told them of American prosperity. The average human is a Babbit at heart, prefers to feel, if even in prison, that his prison is the best of all possible prisons. The southern man, not the slave of the many, not the few—share the civic pride of the southern white, there being the same rivalry among nearby towns, as between Durham and Raleigh, for instance. Further, I found that just as there is protective coloration among the so-called lower animals, so the southern Negro, with the evir-lurking mob and lyncher, has evolved a protective psychology all his own. With him, as among the whites, raps at the north and northern Negroes are—well—not exactly unpopular. The average southern Negro is more of a white man at heart than the northern one—sometimes I had but to shut my eye to hear a Klansman speakine. Was this sincerely? Yes, for the southern Negro grows up in an atmosphere of such opinion regarding himself as fishes grow in water, many making little or no attempt to get a colored periodical or book for the other side of the story, consciously or unconsciously not wishing his defensive mechanism to be disturbed. Most of his so-called race pride is but a pallid limitation thrust upon him by the attitude of the whites—a fact by no means untrue of the Caucasianized Negro wherever found. The southern Negro has been trained to place the blame for conditions, not only for the whites, but on the members of his own group. Everywhere one goes, even in such a hole as Dalhart. Tex. one hears of the cordial relations existing between the races," and of how fine it was Englishman Assails "Slavery in South African Land Laws The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has received from London a clipping from "The Friend," in which John II, Harris, Parliamentary Secretary of the Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protections Society, sharply assails the most recent color-bar legislation in South Africa. Of the South African segregation, or color-bar policy, Mr. Harris writes: A. until the newcomers spoiled it. just as in a prison the old-timers blame the tightening of the screw by the warden on the incoming youngsters. And, singularly, this blame, as in the north, is usually placed on the man further south. I ate my first meal in Knoxville, Tenn., in a hooch joint patronized by colored and white. "What sort of a town is this?" I asked a Negro guzzling white mule. "Oh, he replied, "it was fine until all these southern n—rs migrated here." The Tennessee Negro blamed conditions on the Alabama one, Alabama on Georgia, Georgia on Louisiana, always the man further south, until New Orleans was reached, then one started northward again, with Mississippi as the guilty one. Let me make this clear: I hold no brief for either north or south. My home, like that of Thomas Palme, is the world—a world now so filled with white people that I seem destined to end my days, as I begin, among them. Since this is so, I would choose Europe, where the whites are wholly civilized, so far as I am concerned. But I can't afford it, and am forced to choose between the north, where they are semi-civilized, and the south, where they are totally barbarous, with apologies to the barbarian. I found many Negroes captured in nearly every vacations in the north, but with no good word for it, the reason for this perhaps being the fact that it is one thing to get a man out of jim-crow and quite another to get the jim-crow out of him. Returning north again it is taking some time to make me realize that I am half-free again, just as Englishman Assail in South The National Association Colored People has received "The Friend," in which Jo Secretary of the Anti-Slaver Society, sharply assails the tion in South Africa. Of the color-bar policy, Mr. Harris "The most recent development of this policy of heliotry is yet another land Bill, one section of which is indicative of its whole character. This particular section is designed to drive from the land all natives who do not serve for the landlord; at the same time it sets up machinery for distributing this landless labor to the Europeans as and when they need it for one year at a time. "It will thus be seen that the native may be passed as a kind of chattel from farmer to farmer according to the needs of the farmer, the needs of the oppressed and highly respected white men in South Africa sums up the position in a private letter in the following passage. "South Africa is at the parting of the ways. Although this is not purchase and sale of human beings, it is equivalent to the Government leasing them, and this leasing completely justifies our saying that the proposals contained in this Bill will mean slavery." These natives are taken possession of body and soul by the Government, and if this is the case, what temptation is there for the employer to become their legal owner? On the contrary, he will be pleased to find that he has them entirely in his power, while his capital is free for investment in other directions. The white people of the British Empire cannot realize too clear the difference between the Color Bar upon which the Coalition Government of South Africa has embarked is not merely fatal to ordered progress, but that it is admittedly a violation of definite pledges, agreements and treaties with the native people of Africa LETTERS it took me months in Europe to realize I was wholly free. Nevertheless, there is a tremendous difference between north and south in the matter of "Negro" citizenship. Race discrimination is illegal in almost every northern State; the statutes of every southern State demand it. In the north such discrimination is largely due to the apathy of the Negroes themselves; in the south even the liberal whites dare not speak out. John R. Shiflady was horsewiphed in Austin, Texas, thus frightening the Negroes away from the N. A. A. C. P. and killing the Association in that State. Will R. Alexander, another white radical, was nearly mobbed when he spoke against the jim-crow car. In the north the Negro can protest boldly in his journals; in the south he dares not, as the southern oligarchs are ever alert to crush every sign of rising manhood, for it is manliness that is at stake. The American colonists revolted against one-thousand of what the Negro is placidly enduring in the south today. In Kentucky, where the attitude is almost northern, two Kentucky editors were recently fined for telling the truth; lucky for them it wasn't Mississippi. Two colored editors at whose request I wrote articles censored them, warning me to find some way to hurt his business; the other said that some morning he might awake to find his place burned down, and he was speaking from bitter experience. Neither of these was in the southern south. J. Max Barber, it will be recalled, was driven out of Atlanta and his plant burned. With two near-exceptions, the Negro press in the south is pretty well muzzled. Moreover, the radical Negro, and by radical I mean he joists on the enforcement of the application of the principles of Christianity, at once becomes an object of suspicion first of all to his own people. With the fear of the mob, they'll be the first to declare themselves out of sympathy with him. The northerner who goes south expecting to see lynchers running wild and militant Negroes is due for a jolt. All's quiet with race relations below the underground powder magazine at Lake Denmark. N. J., before it was struck by lightning. In the succeeding articles I will discuss, among other things, my impressions of the economic and industrial situations, the educational system, alleged problems, the Grassland, the N.A. A. C.

The highest score was made by the white Thirtieth Infanty with 98.6 per cent, but only 73.6 per cent of its riflemen took part. Next came the Forty-fifth Infanty, a Philippine scout regiment, with 98.3 per cent; the Forty-second Infanty, a Porto Rico regiment stationed in Panama, with 98.1 per cent, and the Twenty-fifth Infanty, a Negro regiment at Nogales. Arts, with 98 per cent. The record of the Filipinos and Negro soldiers was remarkable. The Times reported because "98.5 per cent and 73.6 per cent of their respective personnel finished the course."

IT IS very important to have the blood of an infant as near normal as possible. One of the chief constituents to this normality is iron. To have this iron in the proper amount it is necessary that the child be properly nourished even before birth. It receives this nourishment before its birth through the blood of its mother in a continuous circulating blood stream between mother and child. It is necessary, therefore, that the pregnant mother eat foods that are rich in iron. Iron is most important to a baby's blood. Iron gives proper strength to the tissues of the body. This iron is in combination with a substance of the blood called hemoglobin. ing the first 9 to 12 months following birth. This supply of iron must be replenished by the ingestion of food containing iron. This hemoglobin is in the red cells of the blood. For a baby to be healthy, then it must have at the time of its birth a proper amount of hemoglobin and its combined iron circulating in the blood. This hemoglobin is stored up in the liver of the infant as a prenatal supply. The infant after it is born does not get any iron from milk is almost devoid of iron in a new-born baby there is five times as much iron proportionately in the liver as in that of a full grown person. Thus the infant at the time of its birth has this important hemoglobin with its iron stored up in large amounts in its liver.

I LIKE occasionally to call the attention of readers of Book Chat to some college thesis upon a phase of the Negro question. While these are small contributions to the sum of human knowledge on our much discussed question, they do bring knowledge rather than discussion. A point greatly in their favor. Ruth Reed has studied five hundred cases of Negro mothers in New York who have given birth to illegitimate children. She has taken her cases from the records of philanthropic agencies. They represent, she tells us, Negroes of the lower economic group, and we must be cautious in extending our conclusions beyond Negro women of this group and of the city studied. Miss Reed starts out with describing the status of the parents of an illegitimate child. In the United States the mother is held in the same relation to the illegitimate child as to the legitimate one. But in the United States the father held to the same degree of responsibility. Doubles this is due to Minnesota's Scandinavian element, for in Norway we have the same position given to the father, and if he is unable to contribute the State lends assistance. Quite early in the book we learn that illegitimacy cannot be explained in terms of race. "Rates among the Negroes." Miss Reed tells us, "are invariably higher than the corresponding rates for whites in the same communities yet are lower for the whites and can be explained in terms of historical conditions and present social surroundings, without reference to the factor of race." Climate, likewise, cannot explain illegitimacy. One can, however, note that, "the unmarried mother group known to private and public social agencies appears to be made up of women from the lower economic groups whose educational and occupational opportunities have been exceedingly limited. There is deprived, uneducated, unfulfilled, and feeble-minded women are found in the group. A large proportion come from homes where relationships between parents were abnormal or where one or both parents were missing." Taking up the definite five hundred Negro cases studies, Miss Reed, after a careful survey of conditions and after describing for us in detail fourteen particular cases, draws a few conclusions: I. Two-thirds have come from an environment different from that which they reared. Of this two-thirds, one-third were foreign born, chiefly West Indians. 2. Seventy-six per cent were under twenty-five years of age. 3. The percentage of illiteracy was double that of the percentage for the Negro throughout the city. 4. Eighty-five per cent had been enraged in domestic service. The per cent for the Negro was enraged in domestic service. 5. In two-thirds of the cases the child was kept by the mother at home or with her relatives while she went out to work.

This supply of iron must be replenished by the ingestion of foods containing iron. If this is not done anaemia will develop by the time the baby is 10 to 12 months old. When this anaemia occurs then malnutrition of the tissues of body results and the child develops diseases as rickets, bronchitis, worms and infectious or contagious diseases. Thus an infant at about 7 months should have not only mother's milk, but also a diet rich in iron, such as spach, corneal mush, tomato juice (cooked), orange juice, a little oil and at times cod meat. This may also contain in the hemoglobin of the blood is kept to the normal amount, and the baby has a good start physically along life's journey.

The writer cannot see that the Negro mother who has brought into the world an illegitimate child is different from the white mother. She finds that the Negro is trying to conform to the standards about her. She is not creating any new types of morals. If she is a wage-earner offerer than the white mother, she does not theorize that that should give her greater sexual freedom. She finds that she can do best in America by conforming as far as she is able with the ideals of the white world. Such conformity helps her economically. She straightens her hair for this reason and lightens her complexion. "Much stress has been laid upon the imitativeness of the Negro as a factor in his assimilation of American culture, but perhaps more important in bringing this about has been the granting or the withholding of the goods of life in proportion as the Negro conformed or did not conform to the ideals of the ruling group."
