Art Work of Mabel Brooks on Exhibition at Anderson Galleries Altar Piece and Two Paintings Praised by Patrons and French Art Magazine Critic Other Negroes Exhibit Included in the current Independent Exhibition of the work of student and professional artists in the Spring Salon at the Anderson Galleries, 489 Park avenue, is the work of Mabel R. Brooks, 144 East Fifty-seventh street. Miss Brooks is considered by the wealthiest art patrons of New York to be an artist of remarkable ability and finest emotion. Three very fine pieces of work by Miss Brooks are hung in the "best rooms" of the Salon, No. 48. "Central Panel of Altarpiece"; No. 49. "Still Life." is a small painting picturing a bowl of fruit on a buffet against a background of tapestry, and "Windblown Trees." No. 50, which was recently sold for $250, about $10 per square inch. The very leaves on "Windblown Trees" seem animated, and one feels refreshed in hearing in the mind's ear the whispering song of the wind in the treetops. As a little girl Miss Brooks loved to cradle herself on the limb of a tree and be rocked on a windy day. These were the days in mind, she said, when she painted the picture. Miss Brooks was born in Washington, D.C., the daughter of the late Eliza Wallace Brooks. Her father, the Rev. John Randolph Brooks, deceased, was an Epiphonal priest. The girl was reared in the Episcopal Church and the beauty of her religious environment made an early and permanent impression on the child's mind. Miss Brooks recalls begging her mother to allow her to sew just one stitch on an embroidered stole, of which her mother made many, including, also, precious altar-pieces. Miss Brooks came to New York in September, 1926, and has had as her private teacher one of the most famous painters in America, Ivan Golinsky. Miss Brooks expresses a passionate devotion for her race and said that she has dedicated her life to their advancement. Upon the occasion of her last exhibition with the Independent Station, Miss Brooks received very favorable comment from two eminent French art magazines, "Artists of Today," a Paris by-monthly, notes that her "work manifests rare artistic sense, an art extremely personal and a decorative mind of impeccable taste." The comment continues, "Miss Brooks was a student at the Academy leavus Arts of the Pennsylvania Museum, Philadelphia, where she received a scholarship. At the Art Institute in Chicago she received the Bernhardt prize, founded by Mle. Brundardt in memory of her mother. Miss Brooks desires beauty to become a painter of frescoes. Her great ambition is to make real religious murals, and she proposes to direct her studies toward that end. "She has given many lectures on art, and has been able to organize in Atlanta, where there is no museum of art, an exposition for the benefit of Atlanta University, the exposition being composed of thirty-three convases of the most illustrious painters, loaned from the Metropolitan Museum of New York City. She is a member of the American Federation of Arts of the American Salon and of the Society of Independent Artists. Charles A.

He went for the prisoner and the mob, waiting until the party had crossed the Mississippi line, surrounded the Sheriff's car and took the prisoner from him. DETECTIVES DIVORCES, INVESTIGATIONS, Ete. BOULUN DETECTIVE AGENCY 110 East 15th St. Harlem 1542 (day) Brad. 6610 (night) NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 1927 Entered as second-class matter Dec 31, 1909, at the Post Office at New York, under the Act of March 3, 1878. $6,500,000 Campaign Closes With Pledges Amounting to Only $4,-039,618—Drive to Go On The Young Men's Christian Association's $6,500,000 campaign to modernize Manhattan Ys ended Wednesday night at a dinner at the Hotel Commodore, the West 135th Street Branch reporting $83,321 of their $100,000 goal. The drive officially ended with a total of $4,039,618, and the total subscriptions for the last day stood at $344,138. William Fellows Morgan, campaign chairman, said: "Tonight marks the end of our team organization and the closing of our campaign headquarters, but we are not through by any means. The pressing needs of the young men and boys of this city demand that the entire $6,500,000 be secured, and we are going to get it." The work will be continued from the Y. M. C. A. headquarters at 2 West Forty-fifth street. When the entire amount of the campaign has been subscribed the West 135th street branch is to receive $750,000 for the erection and equipment of a fifteen-story building to serve better the needs of the Negro youth of Harlem. Walter Ivack, general secretary of the New York Y. M. C. A., declared that the drive had been hindered by twenty-seven concurrent campaigns, aggregating about $74,000,000. At their twelfth night supper, May 17, the West 135th street branch reported over $50,000, the largest team subscription for the day being $5,814 from No. 161, under the captaincy of L. M. Clarke. His team also led with a campaign total of $22,139. W. Herman Harris, captain of team 167, followed with a total of $14,030. Team 171, under William H. Wortham, came third with a campaign total of $9,315. Thomas Taylor, executive secretary, declared the raising of over $80,000 within two weeks by the West 135th street branch to be the greatest achievement of any similar group. John E. Nail, campaign chairman, was very much in favor of organizing the group into a permanent body to meet monthly. The motion was seconded and carried, the name of the club to be decided upon later. In answering the criticism and objections to the campaign voiced by "Y" critics, Mr. Nail said: "Observation, investigation and experience prove that the best critics are those who contribute nothing to social institutions.

Moose Dispute Settled by Decree Order Books of Queen Esther Chapter Turned Over to New Head Under a decision rendered by Justice Aaron Levy in Special Term, Part I, Supreme Court, Friday, Carrie Brooks, former treasurer of Queen Esther Chapter No. 19, I. B. P. O. of Moose, was ordered to turn over the bank book of the chapter to the new head of Queen Esther Chapter, Mrs. Lella I. Mann. The decision settles the dispute between the old and the new faction. In the old group, up until March 23, were Mrs. Rebecca Harden Ridley, most noble queen, and Carrie Brooks, treasurer; in the new faction, now recognized by law, are, in addition to Mrs. Mann, who is most noble queen, Iola Lawson, secretary, and Francis Hawkins, treasurer. Attorney Thomas L. Higgins of Brooklyn represented the victorious side and Mrs. Ruth Whalley appeared for the losing faction. The fight for supremacy in this female branch of the Moose has been a bitter one and the court's decision brings to an end a great effort to retain financial control on the part of the older group, which are no longer identified with Queen Esther Chapter. Physician Saves Girl's Life by Removing Pin WASHINGTON, D. C. May 23. Having failed to dislodge with his instruments a safety pin in the throat of Lucy Campbell, age 7, which would have strangled her in ten minutes more, Dr. William Cantrell, white, of the Emergency Hospital staff, forced the point of the pin into his own finger and pulled it out of her throat. The willingness of the physician to risk infection and pain saved her life. Lucy was dressing at her home and had the open pin in her mouth when it slipped down her throat. By coincidence, at the time Dr. Cantrell took this means of removing it. Dr. Chevalier Jackson of Philadelphia was delivering an address before the American Medical Association, the general theme of which was to the effect that safety pins left loose and open were a menace to the lives of infants. Safety pins and babies go well together, he said, but the pins should always be fastened to something. UNUSUAL STORY OF BRUTALITY TOLD BY STOWAWAY Plaintiff Sues Di Giorgio & Co. for $100,000 Forced to Work by Day, Manacled at Night An unusual story of brutality on the high seas was related Monday in the United States District Court in Brooklyn, before Judge Moscowit, by Jonathan Gibson, 21. of Kingston, Jamaica. The latter testified in his suit for $100,000 against the Steamship Princess May, operated and owned by Di Giorgio & Co., Inc., of this city. The vessel carries passengers and fruit between here and West Indian ports. Gibson, in answer to questions of his counsel, David C. Broderick, said he was a tailor by occupation. In May of last year, he said, he determined to come to the United States. Accordingly, as the Princess May was about to leave Kingston he slipped aboard on May 19. Four days later, he asserted, he was found by an officer of the vessel and dragged from his hiding place. Gibson said his hands were manacled behind his back and the handcuffs were attached to an upright stanchion at a point level with the deck rail. As Gibson is rather short the stanchion kept his hands well up. Every time the vessel rolled, he testified, the deck fell away from his feet and he was lift suspended by the handcuffs, leaving him in agony until the ship righted herself. In addition, Gibson testified, waves frequently washed over the rail and soaked his shoes, causing the leather to contract and his feet to swell. The following day, Gibson testified, he was forced to work in the galley and that night he was again handcuffed to the stanchion. The next morning, he asserted, his condition was so bad that he was placed in a cabin, where he was confined until the vessel reached this port. Crazy with pain, the witness declared, he was taken to Ellis Island, where he was confined in the hospital for five months. During his detention at the hospital, Gibson went on, gangrene necessitated the amputation of the fore portion of each foot. Gibson also charged that the gangrene caused him to suffer from toxic psychosis and that for part of the time he was at the hospital he was insane and was placed in the psychiatric ward. In its defense counsel for the steamship contends that the physical condition of Gibson before he boarded the vessel could have caused his later condition. 24 FIVE CENTS PER COPY PAGES EVERYWHERE Complete in 3 Sections AT 68 O IN NDAL PHYSICIAN TRAPPED IN ROOM WITH WIFE OF ANOTHER Boston Deacon Nabbed in Phila.

MAY 25, 1927 Court Upholds Discrimination Court Upholds Discrimination Supports Bellevue Superintendent Who Refused to Appoint Atkinson The right of Dr. Mark L. Fleming, white, general superintendent of Bellevue Hospital, to refuse to appoint Neville M. Atkinson to a position of X-ray electrician was upheld Saturday by Supreme Court Justice Levy. Atkinson had sued to mandamus Dr. Fleming to appoint him, and Justice Levy denied his application. Justice Levy said there was no evidence Dr. Fleming had declined to appoint Atkinson because he was a Negro beyond the assertion of Atkinson that such was the case. Justice Levy expressed the belief that Atkinson was supersensitive and his grievance largely imaginary. Atkinson had been previously discharged from a position in the non-competitive class of the civil service for insubordination and this fact. Justice Levy found, was the real determining factor in his failure to obtain the Bellevue appointment. According to Atkinson, he and another man who refused the appointment were the only ones on the eligible list and he argued he should have been appointed. Justice Levy, however, said Dr. Fleming had the right to refuse to appoint from the existing list. Dr. Fleming in an affidavit said Atkinson had been dismissed from the employ of the Harlem Hospital in September, 1925.

"Tainted" Blood Causes Row "Tainted" Blood Causes Row Anderson Descendants in Buncombe Must Attend Separate School (Preston News Service.) ASHEVILLE, N. C., May 23.—The children of Anderson Cove, descendants of "Greasy Bill" Anderson and Jane Russell, through whose veins blood of Negroid extraction flowed, must attend a school separate and distinct from that of other children of the Paint Pork region, the County Board of Education has ruled. A small building, owned by Tom Jenkins, in the Anderson Cove Region, has been rented for the next term of school and will be used as a schoolhouse for the Anderson Cove district. The action of the School Board again revives the old and bitter argument between residents of the Paint Fork section of Buncombe County over the status of the descendants of the old Anderson Mesalliance. Years ago, five generations, in fact, "Greasy Bill" Anderson married Jane Russell, the daughter of Dellie Russell, a white woman, and a man named Baughton, half Negro and half white. A son of this union, Lonzo Anderson, married a mountain girl of pure white lineage. It is the children of the daughter of Lonzo Anderson, Belle Anderson Hicks, whose attendance at Paint Fork school is disturbing residents of the district, it was said. These two children, Paul and Lilly Hick, are white in the eyes of the law, which says that persons separated from Negro parentage by four generations are considered white and may marry with whites legally. The children, however, were barred from the school on grounds of the school law, which says no person of Negro blood may attend a school for white children. Action of the School Board. It was said, was forced by the attitude of residents of the Paint Fork region, who declared they would not send their children to school if the Anderson clan descendants were allowed to Harlem Branch Pledged $83,331 C.

"In Savannah, Georgia, the Mayor of the city sent for a Negro minister who is president of the Baptist as well as of the Interdenominational Ministerial Union, and after stating how good a Mayor he had been to all citizens regardless of color, and what he intended to do for the Negro if reelected, he asked that all the ministers should work for the registration in the Democratic primary and the voting of colored people. I was informed by this minister that definite steps were being taken to organize the colored people, by block, precinct and ward, for registering in the Democratic primary and voting. "In Atlanta, despite the professional politicians, definite steps have been taken to register colored voters in this way and to instruct them regarding the matters to be voted upon. In Columbia and Charleston, South Carolina. Negroes are making preparation to organize by block, precinct and ward to offer themselves for registration at the Democratic primary election and to contest any refusal to register them. In Raleigh, North Carolina, it is centrally conceded that the mayoralty election recently held there was determined by the Negro vote cast for Democratic candidates by Negroes. Negroes were brought to the polls in large numbers by colored and white people, and registered to a large extent to vote the Democratic ticket. "It looks as if the days of boss ism. of leadership by the old type of Negro politician in the South were rapidly coming to an end. A new era of enlightenment is dawning to Negroes as to how they may use the ballot to gain their rights and privileges "Everywhere I heard the opinion expressed that the decision of the United State Supreme Court in the Texas White Primary Case had opened the eyes of colored voters to these possibilities. Many expressed the opinion that Negroes throughout the South, by voting the Democratic ticket in large numbers, would of necessity end the present one-party system and produce a two-party system in the South, since it would become respectable for white men to be in the Republican Party. "The realization of the awakening of Negro voters and their growing power is not confined to colored people. White people are realizing it too. It is leading to a much greater interest on the part of white politicians in the opinions and the welfare of their colored constituents. Negroes are realizing that the ballot is a weapon, not a mere matter of sentiment; that the Democrats are in power; and that if the Negro vote is to determine what kind of man is to be elected at present, it must be cast for a Democratic candidate." CEILING FALLS.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 1927 A Treasured French Beauty Bath Secret YOUR SKIN INSTANTLY FEELS LIKE SMOOTH RARE VELVET Like stepping into rich cream- yet startling in economy Merely ask your grocer for a package of LINIT and follow the above suggestions. HERE is a story about a beauty bath that equals the magic of rubbing Aladdin's Lamp-a beauty bath secret France imparts to America. The startling results are immediate. After your first bath, your skin feels like the velumen of an orchid petal. And another amazing thing the cost of each bath is almost insignificant. You'd never believe that such an inexpensive beauty bath could produce instantly such marvelous results. Take two or more handfuls of Linit and dissolve in the bath bathe in the usual way, using your favorite soap-step out and dry off-and then feel your skin. In texture it is soft and smooth as the finest velvet-as well as perfect in elasticity and suppleness. Linit gives the skin just the right amount of lubrication. It neither takes away too much of the necessary oil in the skin, which often makes it chafed and inflamed, nor does it dry up the skin by clogging the natural oil in the pores. Makes powder unnecessary On the average, women use too much powder after bathing. They dab it on in spots and the pores become clogged. But a Linit bath leaves on the skin a thin, porous layer of powder that is evenly spread over the body. This thin coating of Linit absorbs perspiration, is resistant to irritation, and gives a VERY IMPORTANT TO YOU The fact that LINIT is sold by all grocers as a high class laundry starch and is also recommended for use as a remarkable beautybath may seem rather far-fetched to some women - however, the statements made above are not mere claims, but are backed by leading chemists and dermatologists, and the use of LINIT as a beauty bath is a common practice among fashionable women and cinema stars. Regardless of all this you are the judge of whether a LINIT bath will give the results as stated above. LINIT is so economical that at least you should give it a trial. Let the results speak for themselves. ask your grocer for a p follow the above su soft, smooth, velvet-like feeling to the skin. Why Linit is absolutely harmless Skin is a delicate covering for the body and must be guarded by the use of pure and gritless preparations. Linit is pure starch from corn-an absolutely pure vegetable product. In fact, dermatologists and doctors recommend starch from corn for the tender skin of new-born babies. Linit, when added to the bath produces a creamy "feel" to the water which makes it less irritating in cases of certain skin diseases. Immediate results The effect of Linit is immediate—a few handfuls in the bath dissolving instantly—and then instead of waiting weeks and weeks for some sign of improvement, you step out of your bath and immediately sense a creamy softness in your skin. Ask your grocer today for a package of Linit, follow the above suggestions, and your use of Linit in the bath will be everlasting.

M. FOUR Official Referee M. Warley Platzek heard the case and Justice Richard H. Mitchell, sitting in Special Term, Part III, of the Supreme Court of New York County, granted Foulkes an absolute divorce on an interlocutory judgment. Foulkes will be allowed, by order of the court, the custody of his two children, Hazel, 19, and Winnonna, 17, now in Jamaica. Phillip Lewellyn, 2159 Fifth avenue, a lifelong friend of the Foulkes, went to Jamaica in October, 1925, carrying special greetings from Foulkes to his wife and children. Upon his arrival, Lewellyn testified, he saw Mrs. Foulkes with a babe in arms and another small child, besides Hazel and Winnonna. He questioned her, he said, and she told him they were the children of one Daniel Smith, whom she had had in court for non-support of them. Lewellyn returned to the United States with this information April, 1926, and divorce proceedings were started soon afterward. Attorney Solomon had read into the records a copy of the summons served on Smith under the bastardy laws of the British West Indies. The divorce summons and information were served on Mrs. Foulkes at Jamalca, and these were also read into the record. All papers in the case had been authenticated by the American Consul at Kingston, Jamalca. The action becomes final August 16.

At the hearing, Supervisor Fink, who is responsible for segregating the colored children, was called to the stand to testify. Hearings before the Commissioner of Education will be continued on May 24 and Mr. Hayne reports: "I believe that our case has been made, so far."

"BRAN Judge Scores Lower Court Justices of Peace Exceed Authority, He Holds MAYS LANDING. May 21. The indictment of Wilson Shorts of Atlantic City for an offense for which he was already serving out a sentence of 350 days in the county jail called forth a quick denunciation by Judge Smathers of the methods used in some of the lower courts of the city and county. Shorts was indicted by the grand jury at its last session in April for breaking and entering, at which time he was incarcerated in the county jail in Mays Landing, having been committed on April 9 by Justice of the Peace Frank Waldmayer of Atlantic City, after the testimony in the breaking and entering case had resulted in conviction before the justice on a charge of disorderly conduct. Some of the justices of the peace in Atlantic County have been usurping the authority of the grand jury and the county courts by disposing of indictable cases in their own way, according to Judge Smathers, who scored the practice. James A. Lightfoot, attorney for Shorts, addressed the court when the case was called for trial, stating the circumstances and offering the suggestion that a trial on the indictment would be placing the defendant in jeopardy twice for the same offence.

By the complaint which is on file in the Clerk's office, the plaintiffs who are the stakeholders of the Har- lem Airlift Associates, also com- plain that the directors of the corporation failed and neglected to perform their official duties and residently suffered and permitted themselves properly and effects of the corporation to be wasted and replaced.

Marriage is not a termination of friendship, but the beginning of true and tried test of real friendship and its value. Both parties are expected to observe with each other the same little courtesy that they would observe if just plain friends.

Husbands and wives will remember that their home needs the charm of their presence more than society does, and their complaisance and civility should be practiced in the daily household as well as on state occasions.

Series Dear Egynsy Ann With all due respect to you, and, if necessary, numerous apologies, I must state that my opinion is that you possibly have to honor your position with The Amsterdam News. After following up your articles week after week, I am forced to believe that you may be a bit biased in your sentiments for women. I realize that you must be a woman, and as such, I suppose, it is no more than natural for you to stand up for your own sex, but you could be a little broader in drawing your courage. Referring to your article in the issue of May 4, I may state that even though you may be displaying your knowledge—however much it may be of interest—you could get that there has been too great a percentage of increase in civilization and enlightened environment to compare an African male of former years with the 20th century. Of course there is such a thing as custom being handed down from one generation to another, and a Negro should not be censured for sticking to an ancient custom and more, the white race who observes customs originated before the birth of Christ and in the early years of the A. D. era. Moreover, the "spineless jellyfish" could not possibly exist on the life of lazy idleness without the backing of a pleasing wife, and would most probably present any attempt made by him to look for work. In my opinion, the main fault lies with the woman who encourages the life, but no one should be censured in such brave and would most probably agree to all parties concerned. Those women still have one redeeming feature. They are in a class by themselves, in not wanting to drain the blood of their children, but have a woman of today has a tendency to be in "gold digger". I firmly believe that it is much better for a man, if he wants to live an easy life, to get his means committing assaults and murderous robberies, thereby becoming a material menace to society. Yours truly. NEWS READER. Dear News Reader. Your assumptions that I am a woman and have been a social worker are correct enough, but heaven help the rest of them! I'm biased in my sentiments for women. I wonder. Do you call the lazy cad I described in the May 4 issue, wideawake and quick-witted? With all due apology to you, you're the prejudiced one. The "spineless jellyfish" could not exist without the backing of a woman, and that's just why I told the woman to let the man get out and work. The woman's duty is with the children. The girl's widow gives resenting the fact that their husbands work. The resentment they have is that their husbands don't work. I'll grant you that there is the mistress that will prefer to feed her man with a silver spoon—until he gets all fed up and pushes her aside for the one who attracts more and gives less.

She must learn from experience. I'm speaking of that institution that must be held sacred for the furtherance of the race. A father should be the real preceptor of the child. To the race he owes men; to society, men of social dispositions. If the mother has to rush off to work, leaving the little tots in the care of bigger tots, leaving them in the dirty streets to come in contact with street-corner lizards, and, to climax that, to leave a man called father sit around or flit around, as the case may be, as an example for those easily impressioned minds, are we going to have family life? Can a child respect his dad in later years when he will need care? No, he'll have the child to find. For the child, no family life when young, no family when old. The leading artist on the program was Paul Robeson, accompanied by Lawrence Brown. Mr. Robeson sang several songs and was generous with his encores. His genial personality and beautiful voice won him new laurels. Others on the program were: Miss Beatrice Mack, who made her debut at Carnegie Hall two winters ago after several years of study abroad, delighted the large audience with selections, accompanied by Miss Berger; James Skelton, accompanied by Miss Thela Brunson, who had been unknown to the audience, vocal selections; Miss Stella Nelson, two classical compositions on plano; Miss Olive P. Hopkins, soloist at Mount Olivet Baptist Church, accompanied by Mrs. Reiner, sang two songs which showed the large range of her voice and her versatility: Miss Edith Klein, soprano, accompanied by Mrs. Elizabeth Damrosch Seymour.

BROOKLYN AND LONG ISLAND SECTION BROOKLYN OFFICE 868 Fulton Street Prospect 6375 LOUIS ISLAND OFFICE 233 Pacific Street, Jamaica Jamaica 4155 Jamaica a Miniature Land of Promise Amsterdam News Representative Sees Remarkable Growth of This Suburban Center Reviewed and Valuable Information Given to Prospective Home Owners It is a long stretch from the farms that were numerous south of South Street, Jamaica, twenty-five years ago to the tiny populist center of today, with its fine homes extending south of Cedar Manor, in those days known as Ascension South. And still the "old-timer" that Father Time was constituted in this modern civilization casts a look upon when gripped with the thought of the old cornfields, the casual haunt through the woods, which are disapproving as time goes on, that was his pleasure in the day above the trend to the world's greatest city's fastest growing suburb. In this particular paragraph we speak of the South Side, as ninety per cent of the Negro population, which runs into the thousands, resides in this community. By the same token, it's a long journey from the rickety old wooded structures that held sway along Pelton street now Jamaica avenue to the modern buildings commuting skyscrapers; very much in evidence from 1858 on Pelton street. West to Ridhamland from the old Long Island National station facing on Twomouth place to the south to all points on Long Island. Loving on Sulphin Boulevard; the development of the Hillside community north of Jamaica avenue, in those days a mass of woodland, into a residential section second to none on Long Island, where white persons of moderate means reside. Many other such instances could be mentioned that space will not permit have passed on in Jamaica's steady march of progress. The Jamaica of today is a colorful mass of surging humanity, a part of which is the thriving South Side. True, the white real estate operators, cordial to our group as usual whenever financial returns secure to their interest, are responsible, in part. But for these men who had the business foresight (even for financial gain) imagination, and the courage to gamble, it wouldn't have been; there wouldn't have been the accredited population of 5,000 or more inhabitants coming mostly from an overcrowded Harlem. The first development that attracted members of our group was Newark Park, some seventeen or eighteen years ago. The community thrived until today it is one of the show places of the South Side. A seriously residential section, restricted from the invasion of stores and other business enterprises until 1910, although an occasional real estate sign may be noticed here and there. Other residential sections grow up, till they are stretched to Cedar Island and beyond, and where further south, east and west are in the making. Building lots of present is at its peak, with approximately 1,900 homes under construction for the 1927 rush that is to start soon as the weather opens up a bit. It is predicted by real estate experts that more people will come to Jamaica this year than in any previous five years combined. We Need Business Enterprises. The need is ripe for thorough business men, men of experience in invade this fast growing suburb an centre. True, we have a few on the commercial field that are strong, but there is sufficient room for many more. Something other than the barber shop, the restaurant, the tailor shop and the like is desired. While there is a grocery store or two, a fruit and dessert store or two, a herb-dessert store and other similar stores and other similar businesses be welcomed, and be fairly well equipped, the race, as well as by the Polish and Indian element that resides on the South Side in large numbers. In other lines of endeavor exclude the professional field our group is fairly well represented, with carpenters, bricklayers, plaster painters, expressmen and their. Their representation is for superior to the present com- municipal progress made to date, and the most of their patronage comes from the opposite groups, which is being unusual, but many of these men would give considera- tion to spending their dollars among their own wherever and whenever possible for value re- lated instead of promenading Rockaway and jamaica ave. and Santa Monica avenues to pro- vise their salaries. Professional Representation. The medical and dental profes- sioner represented than any of the men is an open field, as a cer- tain portion of the patronage field. A professional field well worth their labor is lacking is the lea- gal position in Queens County the from the farms that were numerous in Africa, twenty-five years ago to the of today, with its fine homes ex-Manor, in those days known as the "old-timer" that Father Time modern civilization casts a look with the thought of the old corn-ough the woods, which are disap-that was his pleasure in the day's greatest city's fastest grow-ular paragraph we speak of the cent of the Negro population, lands, resides in this community. Nexro population is estimated at 12,000, and with every indication that by 1825 5,000 more will be added, it is reasonable to suggest that some one or two of the boys in Harlem not doing so well be because of the competition might come his way and blaze the trail. Mr. Claybourne, physician, Dr. G. Claybourne Carter, did his part in smoothing things for the rest of his colleagues who followed. With the population growing by leaps and bounds as it has in the past five years, the N. A. A. C. P., Y. M. C. A. , and Y. W. C. A. organizations are planning to become active. The N. A. A. C. P. several weeks ago formed a permanent branch and is on a working basis. The two "Ys" have not made much headway but the nucleus of both are in the making and sometime in the future it is hoped they will begin to function. A Property Owners' Association has been active during the past winter months in an attempt to secure better streets and various other improvements that are sadly needed. To date the association in question has not been very successful, but is determined to fight until they are heard. A business association or some other similar organization, with wholehearted co-operation as its fundamental foundation, should be founded, and no doubt will be before many months, that our commercial men and women may come together for the common cause of their own interest and protection. Such a move would have a tendency to stimulate business as well as bring about a better understanding between the South Side and business places along Jamaica avenue, especially the banking institutions. Why this suburban center has gone "over the top" is no secret. A condition exists that has produced thriftiness, probably in many instances compulsory, but never theless true. Ninety per cent of our inhabitants are property owners, and that in itself speaks wonders for Jamaica. In no other suburban community can be found as great a percentage of home owners as here. Owning a home, the ballot box, and the church are the three principal factors that make good citizenship and in turn build great communities. Ninety per cent home ownership, plenty of schools, an abundance of churches, work galore, many other activities and you have Jamaica, the Garden Spot of Long Island. Make up your mind to live in Queens County and help add to our fast growing population, Over 12,000 during the past 10 years have heeded this call.

Jamaica and Negro Business -By VIVIAN HARRIS____ WHAT are our air of dignity and pride in our life? We stop to consider the possibilities of being and the wonderful background we have in our life. We organize an area group, and it is our duty to keep it new months or for a year, but monthly on and on continuously, not only for our own growth but for our children and our own children by their dormancy. If I may call it awakened to the seriousness of the business, we must organize it but all seem to be into eruption every day, more or less into the air, so are b mess enterprises which in a short time fails to the dormant for another 10 or 25 years. The queues may be mighty or mighty. The queues may be as follows: (1) Lack of business that suspicion and individual self-esteem we have naturally indolent on general. (2) A civic association, town-wide in common to community life. The community-wide are silent witness of grade. Dear friends, in fact, warrant it. Are there not our midst to organize such a board be so busy that what has become of the business. I have been informed that with organized in our town a branch of the regularly each month, and that it is so important that we organize is the earnest wish of the Surely, if cheap social clubs we welcome that will compare favored organization that will compare favored items as confront us and our children as confront us which seem to be the but cheap imitation which seem to be the lead downward rather than upward. Since we are judged as a group, community is our necessity business, or for a short season WHAT as air of dignity and pride would surround all of us of the latter half of the above caption were a reality rather than a farce. If you would stop to consider the possibilities of business or civic organizations in our circles and the wonderful background we have on which to build, certainly you would say "Why not?" Let's organize at least one enterprise for the welfare of our group, and give it our whole-hearted, sincere cooperation—not only for a time but for a year, but a month in and month out—year in and year out—for the good on continuously, not only for the whole of the world—and for the good of all the community and our town, for the advancement of the life-and-life life—and for the good of the community and the life of those who are to come after them. Speaking of business and civic organizations, I am wont to think of the male population of our town. The men, in truth, should be the main stannina of such movements for our group, but, sadly enough, they are conspicuous by their name. I think they see them asleep and have not awakened to the seriousness of the duty that faces them as a people, as husbands, as fathers, and last, but not least as men. Within the just de de numerous projects have been launched by our own staff, and by our own organizations, Y. M. and W. C. W. A. and perhaps c. organizations whose work is to build forth but all seem to have a natural death. Like a volcano that bursts forth into the air, our own organizations forth its lava and steam into the air, so are b. ness enterprises among us. Our own organizations form our own in our town. They ourd forth into eruption, send forth steam and hot air to the earth, and send forth the ground, so to speak, after which they do dormant for another 10 or 20 years. "What are some of the causes of business failures among Negroes?" you might ask. The situation is as follows: (1) Lack of business cooperation as a group, due to lack of self-affinity; (2) lack of business initiation—that self-satisfied air that says, "I want to keep buckles and tongues together. I am satisfied," and (3) that you are a race Coming back to the matter of welfare organizations in our town, we need a civic association, townwide in scope, taking care of all local problems in our community, townwide in scope, taking care of the streets in the communities where we reside are silent witnesses to the need for a civic association of trade. Does not the Negro population of Jamaica and of Queens Borough, do not the Negro population not enough business and professional men in our midst to organize such a civic association? Couldn't something be done toward boosting Negro business in Jamaica? That has become of the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. movement that was much talked about to Jamaica and Queens Borough as to any other section of the country I have been informed that within the past few months there has been organization our town a branch of the N. A. A. C. P., that the organization organizes a weekly series of a sign of life are very strong. That it succeeded in its every effort and become a powerful branch of the parent organization is the earnest wish of the writer. Surely, if cheap social clubs which contribute nothing to our generation can be organized and maintained, why not some worthwhile organization that will compare favorably with those of any group? Suel, social pro- lem as confront us and our children should banish all thoughts of weekly card parties, which seem to be the height of suburban ambitions and are lead downward rather than upward. Since we are judged as a group, and not individuals, may the time soon come on a business basis, not for a short season only, but for a longer period.

Mendel Miller Denies Claims Mendel Miller, one of the foremost builders on Long Island, a leading member of the Millacoin Building Corporation and a sportsman known in all circles in Greater New York, especially where the mitt men perform, advised a representative of this paper today that Messrs. Charlie Werner and E. D. Stewart, who recently dissolved their really partnership, are not at all indebted to him or the firm which he represents. Messrs. Werner and Stewart for quite some time represented the Millacoin corporation, but some months back saw fit to agree to disagree and they are now working separately in the same line. Both these men have met success selling the Millacohon houses as a team and, from present indications, they are bound to continue to meet the wants of the many prospective buyers now making the trip to the fastest-growing community in Greater New York. The Millacohon builders recently finished eighty-six new buildings, making a total of about four hundred houses erected for sale to colored people. These new houses are far superior to the houses built by the same firm a few years ago, in that new styles and additional comforts are to be found in them. Miller Going to Europe. Mr. Miller will be leaving on August 27 to join his comrades of the American Expeditionary Forces, making the trip to France under the auspices of the American Legion and as a member of the Queens County Committee of the organization. While in Europe the popular builder also plans to make a trip to England and will most likely pay payment to the form of buildings' in the British suburbs, hoping to reproduce upon return a style of house which will appeal to the more wealthy class of home buyers. Before concluding the short interview with Mr. Miller, he took occasion to state that Massa, Werner and Stewart never had the sole agency for the selling of Millacohn homes, as claimed by other brokers, and the standing invitation to all brokers licensed by the State issued by the firm some time ago remains, that is, that all brokers are welcome to handle Millacohn houses and receive their full commission on all sales.

Inclusive "The Dollar for Each Member" each member has been asked to donate eleven dollars. It is hoped in a way to raise three thousand dollars. Know New York State New York has the most diversified border of any state. It is bounded by three lakes (Erie, Ontario and Champlain), one foreign country (Canada), one ocean (the Atlantic), five other states (Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Jersey and Pennsylvania), and one river (the Hudson). The robin is the favorite bird of New York State school children, as attested by a recent contest in which 300,000 votes were cast. The electric utility system producing more current than any other system in the world is in New York, with both stations in Buffalo. Last year it generated nearly four and a half billion kilowatt-hours. New York City has become the greatest port in the world. In 1926 the value of cargo passing through it was double that passing through the Port of London. New York leads all other states in internal revenue payments, which last year totalled more than half a billion dollars. Next in order were Pennsylvania, Illinois, and North Carolina. The first gas plant in New York State and the second in the country was established in 1852, 104 years ago. The Empire State now uses more than two billion cubic feet of manufactured gas a week. Governors Island, in New York Harbor, was known as Paganack until 1685, when it was set apart for "His Majesty's Governors," and became a fort. Crack Bushwick Team Wallops Hilldale and Cops Both Games Crack Bushwick Team Wallops Hilldale and Cops Both Games The Hilldale Club, of Darby, Pa., had the pleasure of ruining the Bushwick's official opening ceremonies a month ago and Sunday they received punishment for their folly when they left Dexter Park riding on the tail end of a double defeat. Stanley Baumgartner, former Philly and Athletic southpaw, whose signing by the Bushwick was a move calculated to stop the colored teams, the lineups of which mostly are made up of portside swingers, won the first game for the homesters. He was hit hard, however, by the Hilldales, and might have been defeated had it not been tor the batting of his mates and the bungling play of the visitors, whose ten hits meant less to them than eight did to the Bushwick. The score was 12 to 7. Eddie Hockenbury was also founn for ten hits in the nightcap, but his unies got to Cockrell for thirteen blows and won by 7 to 3 Eddie Gerner, the Bushwick's hustling left fielder, continued on the batting rampage he started in last week's second game, when he got five blows in as many trips to the plate. In each contest Sunday he got three out of four. Four were singles, one a double and one a homer on the right-field wall, with two on base, coming in the eighth frame of the opener. His double chased in two runs in the seventh frame of the opener and he scored on a double steal. The Hilldales scored first in the opener, a pass to Lewis, Thomas' single, Washington's force and a double steal by Lewis and Washington making a run in the second inning. The Bushwicks came back with two in their half. Gerner led off with a single over second. Barnes' short single put Gerner on second and the pair moved up on Carters' sacrifice. After Dean lined out to Warfield, Smith was safe on Yancey's fumble and Gerner and Barnes scored when Yancey threw wild to Carr. Stevens' pass steal of second and Lewis' single gave the Hilldales another run in the third and they made two more in the fourth on Carr's double, Yancey's single, Lee's fielder's choice and Stevens' double. The Bushwicks tallied twice in the sixth and five times in the seventh. A pass to Gerner, Barnes' force. Carter's double and Dean's single produced the brace. Passing Lai and Weiss and hitting Irving. Lee filled the bases with Bushwicks in the seventh. Gerner doubled, scoring Lai and Irving and sending Weis to third. Barnes fouled to Lewis and Weiss was nailed at the plate when Carter hit to Warfield. Carter and Gerner worked a double steal, aided by Lewis' bad throw. Gerner tallied and Carter making third. Dean walked and he scored in another successful double steal with Carter. Lewis again throwing wild and Crick allowing with another poor leave. The Hillaldes made three more runs before Gerner's homer sewed it up in the eighth. Thomas got two bases on Gerner's muff of his fly and successive singles by Washington and Carr along with Lee's infield out and Warfield's single, produced the trio of markers. The Hilldales bated in two runs behind Cockrell in the first five innings of the second name and he was headed for a shutout victory until the sixth inning, when the Bushwicks knocked in three tallies. Singles by Briggs and Lewis and Thomas' sacrifice fly gave the visitors a run in the fourth and Yancey's triple with Peipokis's bad throw in the relay to the plate gave them another marker in the fifth. Gerner's single. Barnes' safe hunt. Cockrell's fumble on Carter's sacrifice. Dean's double and Hockenbury's sacrifice fly gave the Bushwicks three in the sixth. The FIRST GAME. AR. R. H. O. A.

JAMAICA, N. Y. Phone Jamaica 485-414 ALBANY. May 23.—It won't be long now before the politicians in New York State can get busy, the political calendar as issued this week by Robert Moses, Secretary of State, showing that petitions may be signed as early as July 5, with August 23 the last day for filing. There are no radical changes in the election law, the number of signers to various petitions remaining unchanged as well as the hours for the fall primary and registration. The fall primary this year comes on September 20, while September 23 is the first day that state and judicial conventions may be held. Registration in New York City this year will take place between October 10 and 15, inclusive, while in cities and villages of 5,000 inhabitants and more the registration days are October 14, 15, 21 and 22, with non-personal registration occurring on October 15 and November 8. This fall voters will express themselves on nine proposed constitutional amendments, as well as voting for several judges of the Supreme Court, members of Assembly and county and city officers. Of more importance, probably, than this fall's election is the fact that next spring's primary will come on April 5, at which time district delegates will be elected to the national conventions. Dawn of Education for African Women (Preston News Service.) "For the first time in history, the education of the African woman is receiving serious attention." declares Mrs. Adele Casely-Hayford, founder of the Girl's Vocational School at Sierra Leone, West Africa. Mrs. Hayford is in the United States soliciting funds. New York Negroes gave a concert for the school last Monday evening at the International House. Paul Robeson, Lawrence Brown, Jessie A. Zackery, Lydia Mason and Marlon Cumbo appeared. With the breaking down of old tribal customs, the advent of new ideas and the introduction of modern machinery for agricultural purposes the native girl will gradually be released from the cultivation of home life." Mrs. Hayford predicts "It is to be remembered that in Africa, the woman is largely the burden-bearer not only of children but as a tiller of the soil, the reaper of the harvest and the producer of the thousand and one things that make community life possible. She is truly the mother. In this noble and essential work of reconstruction the educated African woman must undertake a large share. Hence the time has come for the training of the girls today to be leaders of African womanhood tomorrow." Says New Zealand Lacks Color Problem Absence of race prejudice and of color problems in New Zealand is commented on in "British Australian and New Zealand" of April 21. The newspaper states: "In New Zealand the colonists encountered the Maoris, a fighting race, not despicable either in numbers or capacity. Their rivalry and claims to the same soil, in which justice was, by no means always with the whites, provoked long and fiercely contested wars. But no blitterness remains. New Zealanders are fortunate in having colonized a country in which the native race is capable of living alongside them in amity, and probably eventually merging with the whites. Individual half-caste Maoris and pure-blooded Maoris have already attained to the highest positions in the state, and more of them will do so. It is highly creditable to both races, to the New Zealanders of British descent no less than to the Maoris that is so, and that New Zealand today has no color problem because Pakehas and Maoris treat one another with mutual respect, and both enjoy full rights of citizenship in their common native land."

Senior Track Championships Colored Boys Again to the Fore in School Athletic Activities That Have Given Us Some of Our Best Performers What was predicted to be a very close duel between the New Utrecht and Stuyvesant High Schools for the senior outdoor track and field championships turned out to be a lop-sided victory for Barney Hyman's Green and White clad athletes of Bensonhurst. New Utrecht winning its fourth straight P. S. A. L. title by compiling the amazing total of 43 points. Stuyvesant was second, far in the rear with 30 tallies. Erasmus Hall, with all of its field stars running true to form, finished third with 21 points, while 18 markers gave Boys' High a strong hold on fourth position. The meet took on all the aspects of a miniature Olympics, an army of 5,200 athletes, far in excess of the former record number, participating in the day's proceedings. It is also believed that close to 30,000 witnessed the track and field games during the course of the day. The grandstand of the Brooklyn Athletic Field was filled to its utmost capacity, while thousands of schoolboys gathered on the field to find advantageous places from which to see the athletes perform. Several squadrons of police had a royal task on their hands trying to prevent the anxious youngsters from interfering with the races. Two Beckers Place. Both Tom King and Eddie Becker, Erasmus' stellar pair of pole vaulters, shattered a record of 17 years 'standing, when each leaped 10 feet $11\%$ inches, breaking the old mark made in May, 1910, by $2\%$ inches. Both Erasmians actually vaulted 11 feet 3 inches, but it was found that the bar had sagged $3\%$ inches. In the jump-off King successfully defended the title he won last year by beating our Becker. Another Buff and Blue Becker came in third in this event. Folke Becker taking this position with 10 feet 8 inches. Victor Fitzmaurice. New Utrecht's great little running machine, staged a remarkable comeback and won his first notable victory since an illness that bothered him throughout the waning days of the indoor campaign and ran into the first week of the current campaign. Fitzmaurice, the indoor record holder and champion, ran through a fast field, although his main rival, Paul De Marco, was not among the starters, and won handily in 4:45. The New Utrecht phenom ran his usual race taking the lead at the first turn and increasing it as the finish neared. Although Fitzmaurice's time was slower than when he competed on the boards, he appeared to be his usual self, and his final sprint bore all the earmarks of the Fitzmaurice of old. Jeff's Half-Mile Relay The Stuyvesant half-mile relay team did some tall stepping to break another old 17-year-old mark. The East Siders covered the distance in 1.3S 2 1.5, a second faster than the old mark. They recorded the same mark in their semi-final heat as well. Thomas Jefferson's indoor champions were second. Walter Harris, former Boys' High junior champion, scored the greatest upset of the day, defeating Ira Singer, Green and White sprinter. In the senior century dash. Considering that the wind was blowing in his face, Harris' time of 0:10:35 was exceptional. In the junior 100-yard sprint Bernard Dietz, a team-mate of Harris, showed a marked superiority over Tel.

The Alhambra Theatre is for colored folks with an all star colored company; seats are all reserved and they can be gotten one week in advance. "The Cat and the Canary" has been one of the outstanding hits of the stage and has been proclaimed by the press and public as one of the best mystery plays ever seen on any stage. It is filled with laughs and thrills, so go prepared to be thrilled, as it is something which will cause the creeps to run up and down your back. Evelyn Ellis, Edward Thompson, A. B. Comathiere, Elizabeth Williams, Dorothy Paul, J. Louis Johnson, Baron Bryan, Hayes L. Pryor, Jack Catter and other favorite colored actors will be in the cast of "The Cat and the 'annary." Big Benefit at the Alhambra Monster Midnight Show for Benefit of Camp the Coming Friday Night Under the auspices of the Girls' Service League, a benefit will be staged at the Alhambra Theatre next Friday midnight, which promises to be one of the best of its kind staged here in many moons. Many have been the worthy organizations benefiting from affairs of this kind during the past few years in Harlem, but few are more worthy than camp Elwemar, which is located at Towners, N. Y. As will be seen by the advertisement carried in another column of today's paper, one of the best bills will be prosecute to the public on the above occasion. Latter-day entertainers enjoying the spotlight will be out in full force to add their share towards making the night a big one, and if, in justice to the efforts of the league, it is our opinion that the affair should receive the literary support of colored people here. "The Sea Tiger" Comes to the Roosevelt Picturesque of locale, powerful in its love story and presenting one of the most red blooded fights ever seen on the screen. "The Sea Tiger" which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre Saturday, is one of the finest pictures in which Milton Sills has starred for some time. The setting is in a tiny hamlet in the Canary Islands, that famous and colorful group of islands in mid-Atlantic, belonging to Spain. Stills Plays Fisherman Sills Plays Fisherman. Sills plays the role of a slow wit, red but powerful Spanish fisherman, of great strength of character, who is torn between his love for his younger and weaker brother, Larry Kent, and Mary Astor, a fisherman's daughter, whom both the brothers love. Against the stormy background of the sea the tale unfolds itself with peculiar beauty. The tiny fishing craft dip their sails against the horizon as the course of true love runs anything but smooth. Alice White, as a rat brained little Spanish theatrical trouper, causes most of the trouble. "The Notorious Lady" at the New Douglas Theatre Lewis Stone, Barbara Bedford and Ann Rork are the featured players of a notable cast in "The Notorious Lady," the Sam E. Rork production for First National, the feature photoplay coming to the Douglas Theatre beginning Saturday. Mr. Stone has the role of John Carew, soldier and adventurer, and critics say, it is one of the best ever created for him. Miss Bedford is "The Notorious Lady," whose notoriety, incidentally, is gained through a sacrifice for her husband, Carew. Anna Rork, a newcomer in First National pictures, acclaimed for her work in "The Blonde Saint," has a colorful role of a half-caste beauty. Principal scenes in "The Notorious Lady" are in Africa, where Carew (Stone) seeks to lose his identity and forget the past. J. Berni Barbour Under Operation at Hospital J.

"Evening Clothes" at the New Lincoln Theatre A story that moves from the binocular scenes of the French countryside, to the more hectic scenes of a threeday Paris affords Adolph Menjou his latest dramatic opportunity in "Evening Clothes," now at the Lincoln Theatre. In the first reel, of the picture, Paramount proffers a different Menjou, one who through his remarkable versatility is enabled to discharge the exigencies of a strange role with the ease that has always characterized his past performances. As the rustic Comte Lucien D'Artois who makes his farm and all his appurtenances his chief joy in life, Menjou is more than convince link. He discards his famous polish for the naive of the country gentleman who sees the beauty of dawn not through the mist of a night's revelry, but with the clear, appreciative eye of a man who goes early to bed and rises early. He sports a beard, his clothes never quite fit, and he has a keen enthusiasm. Beside his bride, just arrived from Paris, he appears uncount, for Germaine (Virginia Vali) has been worshipping the god of correctness in the Paris drawing rooms. She is distinctly city bred, and in marrying Menjou follows the decree of her parents, after the French custom.

Marcus Garvey Breaks Into Song From Prison Cell Like Paul the Dauntless, who prayed at midnight while in prison centuries ago, we have now the Hon. Marcus Garvey, who is in Atlanta Prison, writing his first song, entitled "Keep Cool." Not only music-lovers should buy this song, we are told, but anybody who can read should get a copy of it for, in the words alone, there is to be found a great lesson. The song also has a sweet melody, with a good piano arrangement by Alexander Seymour. It has been sung at Liberty Hall, in this city, and will be heard at the New Douglass and other theatres this week. The song is published by the Seymour Music Publishing Company of 145 West Forty-fifth street, New York City.

El- MUCH OVER NOTHING On Monday afternoon news came to us that a number of our people journeyed to the Alhambra Theatre on Sunday evening and entered under the impression that "Goat Alley" was being presented. For more than a month Spanish shows have been the offering at the Alhambra Sunday evenings and we do not see how any intelligent person can believe that the management of the house sought to mislead anyone. Then, too, it has always been an accepted fact in theatricals in this big city that legitimate shows seldom if ever are presented on a, Sunday, night. Where in the week musical comedy and drama hold sway, Sunday evening concerts always have taken place in theatres on a Sunday night. We see no reason why any ado should be made over something well WITHOUT the control of the "Goat Alley" people. No, the Amsterdam News theatrical department did not receive one letter taking the management of the theatre to task. Perhaps the large number of Amsterdam News readers was not represented in the few who made the mistake in going to the theatre to see "Goat Alley," which is playing a request engagement this week, and resting up on Sunday night. Ison, L. Francis, H. Ellis and Thomas Smith. Other members of the old regiment present but not participating in the game were: Lieut. Charles W. Fillimore, R. B. Lighston, president; Lieut. H. C. Smith, secretary. From the committee were: Walter C. Dandridge, chairman; B. Hayes, treasurer, and J. C. Pollitt, Charles Wright and A. Abramson. At the end of the contest teams one and two tied for the first prize. After a "rubber," M. Christmas and E. E. Williams won the first prize—a Morocco wallet and a cigarette humidor. The second prize was won by L. Bell and M. Leonard, a Morocco cigarette holder and a nest of cigarette trays. The officers of the Veterans Corps will be elected on June 6.

Y. BEATEN BY DARBYITES Hilldale Puts Crimp in Lincoln Giants' Streak by 9 to 2 Score PHILADELPHIA. May 21.—John Henry Lloyd and his gang of first place Lincoln Giants ran into a bunch of trouble when they paid their first visit of the season to Hilldale Park. The final figures showed the home team out in front by the score of 9 to 2. The 4,000 and some odd cash customers were well repaid for the week-end trip to the Darby ball lot and witnessed one of the best exhibitions of fielding that has been dished out in many meadows. Players on both teams fairly scintillated in the field and killed several drives that rode off the bats labelled for extra base blows. Charlie Mason, the Giants' left fielder, raced across left field almost to the foul line and speared Namon Washington's line drive with his gloved hand. To add interest to this bit of thievery that came in the fifth frame, the sacks were loaded with Hildale runners, and while Briggs scored on the play, at least two more tallies were cut off by Mason's grab. For Hilldale, Frank Warfield and Jake Stevens played a bang-up game in defense of the keystone sack. A total of thirteen chances accepted in a flawless manner were chalked up to the credit of this due. Stevens electrified the crowd when he leaped into the air and Shared George Johnson's liner in the seventh inning, and Warfield was guilty of robbing Lloyd and Robinson of safe blows. His grab of Lloyd's smash in the fifth was a jumping one-handed feat and he actually went into short right field to cut off Robinson's grass cutter and completed a wonderful play by tossing accurately to Carr at first base. Newt Robinson, the former Hilldale player, was stationed in shortstop for the visitors and he also horned in with some nifty fielding plays. Aside from this Robble packed a vicious punch at the plate and socked out two hits, drew a pass and was the victim of Warfield on his other trip to the plate. Warfield shoot up the order of the Darby Daisies with telling effect. George Carr was boosted to the lead-off post and Otto Briggs was stationed at third in the order, and Otto lived up to the task by socking out a triple, double and a single, sending three runs across the plate and scoring two more. For seven innings it was a hotly contested pitchers' battle, with Victor having a shade on Nip Winters, but in the eighth frame the home team unleashed a barrage of base hits that, coupled with errors by the New Yorkers, netted Bolden's crew five runs. The victory tightened the league race and enabled the Bacharach Giants to edge up on the leading Lincoln team. LINCOLN GLANTS Young, Ib. ... B. H. O. A. E.

Brooklyn, for Thursday evening, Knapp weighed 123 pounds, while Rash scaled 113. It was a close bout all the way. Each fighter took one of the second and Knapp the fourth.

SALEM BOXER ANNEXES TITLE Coach Pete White Doing Fine Work at Harlem Club On last Thursday night George Stewart of the Salem-Crescent Athletic Club won the New York State Amateur Boxing Championship at 117 lbs. Young Stewart was forced to extend himself in the final when he ran into Lemuel Salinen, a clubmate. These two boys went at it hammer and tongs, and had the 10,000 spectators yelling for a knockout. However, at the completion of the third round the judges awarded the decision to Stewart. With a few more starts under his belt, George will enter the "Big Money Division." Coach White has given over three men to the professional division of boxing since he has taken over the supervision of athletics for the Salem-Crescent. Incidentally, White is the only Negro representative on the Amateur Boxing Committee in the Metropolitan District. Jake Stumpf, the chairman, gives much credit to White and his boxer.

GIANTS WHIP HILLDALE Jackman, Outstanding Player, Being Responsible for Victory PHILADELPHIA, April 21. — Danny McClellan's Philadelphia Giants, with big Bill Jackman on the bill, scored an eleven inning victory over the Hilldale Club at the Daisies' park by the score of 7 to 6. Aside from giving a clever exhibition of curving, Jackman was a potent factor with the willow, driving out a home run over the left field fence in the second inning with a runner on the base paths. This clout produced two tallies and spelled the difference between victory and defeat in the final score. Script Lee, the underhand hurler from Washington, started the fray for the home clan, but it evidently just wasn't Hustling Holsey's day. The visitors hopped no Lee's beoders with vengeance in the second frame and drove in four runs. Red Ryan was rushed to the rescue and temporarily checked the Giants' bats, but the ability to come from behind and get the odd run was ever prevalent in the visitors' attack. On three occasions, Hilldale knotted the score, but in the eleventh inning, after successive doubles by Lanky Cephus and Bus Davis sent over the Giants' seventh tally, the home team was unable to equal the feat. Burlin White, the human pepper box, is the field general of the Giants. PHILADELPHIA G R. H. O. A. E. Jefferson, c. 0 1 1 4 0 0 Ricks, 1b. 1 1 1 1 1 0 White, c. 0 0 0 1 0 0 Lewis, 2b. 0 0 0 1 0 0 C.

The course led from the New York Athletic Club House to Long Beach. One hundred and thirty-seven athletes answered the starter's gun with more than one hundred competitors finishing. Entered in this race were representatives of all races. The winner turned up in an Indian of the "Hopi" tribe from New Mexico. Among the starters were six boys from our own Salem-Crescent A.C., led by Coach Peter White. These follows were running their first regulation marathon of 26 miles, 385 yards. The six athletes finished in the first hundred, and to the surprise of all finished fifth place for team prize, beating such clubs as Glencoe, Mohawk and Brooklyn Harriers and others. Too much praise cannot be given these boys, and we as a group should inspire them and others to further their athletic endeavors. Coach White has a nucleus for a very formidable team. With this group and with the foundation they have established this team should finish high up in district championships next Fall. 1904 — ANNUAL SPRING GIVEN BY ALPHA PHYSICAL C Incorporated FRIDAY EVENING, J At RENAISSANCE CASINO, Music by JOHN C.

WHILE the patrons of the Emporium could not see the blows struck at the Sharkey and Malone he could at least visualize the latter taking the ball, three knockdowns. The announcing was right along with the fight. Good? I'll say so! HARRY HAINES took Paul Floyd on for a set of two out of three 50-point games of straight five-week. Paul was out three. Harry improved with age. He is no chicken, as quiet as it is kept, and he is also some pocket billiardist. NEW sticks? Yes, all weights and full lengths, and branded Lafayette to assure them staying home. Good sticks have a way of cues along with this supply. Cues along with red tally balls make things interesting for the. Lafayette customers. PAUL BASCOMBE is now a regular, having secured a cue to his liking, housing it in one of the co-operative cue racks. JOE OLIVER, better known as King Oliver of Chicago, is not only some dispenser in the gay and jazz, but a good billiardist, as his friend Ginger can tell you. He brought him to the Emporium to give it the one on the greatest billiard ground. Incidentally they had a fling at the tables, to their pleasure and satisfaction. BLACK CARL has sent Miller and Lyles on their way rehearsing their new show in Chicago. In the meantime Joe Trent, of Muddy Water's fame is keeping Carle's practice for the season.

The victors were the Harrisburg Giants, and it was their first trip to the Protectory coal this season. With Johnnie Beckwith, the new manager, and Oscar Charleston, leading the batting, the visitors won the first game by a score of 10. While at bat in the eighth inning, Carter in the Harrisburg pitchers was hit in the groin by a pitch of ball, and so badly injured he had to be carried from the field. This incident caused the name to be committed at the end of the seventh inning. By not counting the eighth inning, Beckwith and Tate Jennings, were robbed of credit for home runs and Oscar "When batteries fail to stand the grind. When cranking gets you sore.

In which time the presiding officers of the two leagues will confer, and in the meantime Jim Keenan, owner of the Lincoln Giants, has acquiesced to the wishes of his fellow commissioners in the East and will leave Montalvo out of the Lincoln Giants' lineup. Such was the outcome of the meeting of the commissioners of the Eastern Colored League held in Atlantic City. Claiming that he has done nothing to strain the relations between the two leagues and that he acted within his own rights in signing the Cuban player, Jim Keenan cites a paragraph in Article III in the Joint Agreement adopted by the two leagues in Chicago in 1924. Article III: "No player who has played with a club in either league for a season or part of a season shall be employed or permitted to play with a club in the same or other league during the season immediately following without a proper release from the club last employing him." President Ike. Nutter of the Eastern League maintains that his ruling on the case was proper, according to the agreement effected between the two leagues, but also feels that harmonious relations between the leagues is absolutely essential to further the development of the game among race clubs. In justice to the player. Montalvo, who has been kept out of baseball the entire season of 1926. President Nutter's contention is that the West must give him employment or declare him a free agent. THE growth and development of tennis as one of the major amateur athletic sports among our race in the Empire State has struck a snag that if not circumvented will set as back for years and throw us far below the rest of the country, which for the past few years have been showing amazing strides of advancement. THE hazard that endangers the sport in New York is the lack of tennis courts. Proper courts and playing facilities have always been a knotty problem to Harlem tennis players, through perhaps the lack of foresight on the part of those pioneers of the game who did not vision the progress and popularity the game commands today. DURING the past four or five years, due to the building activities going on in Harlem, court after court has had to make way for apartment houses, until today the large body of tennis players are without quarters for their favorite game. FULL the past few years the handwriting has been shown on the wall without head, for it has been the experience of Harlem tennis players that as soon as any of the available county lots in the neighborhood were leased and turned into tennis courts, improved in beauty and surroundings, with a large outlay of money incident to the demands of the game, after one or two years play they were lost. WITH the presence of this land covering a period of five or six years, Harlem tennis players are today faced with situation that is a reflection on their initiative and ability to carry in with national champions from our ranks more players and followers of the game than any other city can boast of, more people to draw moral and financial support from, and the prestige that the Empire City carries, our net results are—no tennis courts. IT is, of course, quite possible that the public at large does not know of the benefits of tennis as a moulder of character and manhood, or as a builder of body and mind, although we have several times in these columns sought to bring out these points, but as a matter of civic duty, community endeavor and public pride, the game should get the support of all the decent people in them when we would have to do more along these lines. We have always felt that there are enough of our people in the community who are of this class if they can only be interested. AT present there are only two courses open that will obviate the disaster that threatens the sport. One is to raise money for the purchase of grounds; the other is a house of unused lots suitable for courts. The former means that to parish would have to buy out of the city or community, where the price of grounds will not be prohibitive. THIS plan, while it seems highly commensal because of its permanence, is nevertheless beset with dangers that may not do the sport the greatest good at this time. The great mass of tennis players are working people, the most of whom do not leave their place of business before five or six o'clock in the afternoon. For them to be compelled to travel out of the city to play it will with a loss of time going and coming that will keep many out of the game that would otherwise come in and force cut lots that are now in. SINCE the project must be supported by the rank and file, due consideration must be given them in every particular. IT must be admitted that from past experience the leasing proposition has been unsatisfactory, due to its uncertainty. So we are reliably informed that a parcel of ground can be had in the neighborhood, accessible to the rank and file, and so situated that the chances of its being taken away, as others have been, is highly minimized. DUE to the fact that the game has not arrived to that point when numeral load and popular support would enhance the establishment of courts outside the neighborhood, it is our opinion that, late though it is, steps should be taken to secure this parcel of ground, construct courts and prevent an interruption of the progress which has been made the past years—a setback which it will take years of hard work to regain. ```markdown ``` THE growth and development of two reports amusing our race in the back country, which set for the past few of advancement.

May 21. Three meet records were broken and two equalled as Mercersburg Academy romped off with the team championship in the twenty-fifth annual Pennsylvania interscholastic track and field championships at Franklin Field. The winners tallied 46½ points, while Peddle, with 12, finished second. The victory gave Mercersburg its third leg and permanent possession of the Delta Upsilon Point Trophy. The performances were above the ordinary in all events. Barney Berlinger, husky Mercersburg all-around star, scored 20 points, winning two first places, trying for another first and taking two seconds. He shared stellar honors with John Fitzpatrick, Canadian sprint ace from Hamilton Collegiate Institute, who captured both dashes in record equalling time. Fitzpatrick covered the century in 9-10 seconds and the furlong in the fast time of 21 8-10 seconds. Hudson of Mercersburg ran second to him in both dashes. Seton Hall Star Wins. Bernie McCafferty, Seton Hall half-miler, furnished the best single effort of the meet when he covered the half-mile in the sensational time of 1 minute 55.5-seconds, just a shade behind the world's scholastic mark and full second lower than Ted Meridith's meet record made in 1912. Bertlinger, besides scoring so much, accounted for a new meet mark in winning the pole vault with a leap of 12 feet 47½ inches, which bettered the mark of Sabin Carr and Pickard by more than an inch. Peacock, colored broad jumper of Union, N. J. broke the other record when he leaped 23 feet 1 inch to smash a mark of seven years' standin by 7 inches. He also took third place in the furling and was just shut out of the century. Mercersburg, in winning, took only four places, and of these four Bertlinger accounted for three Shot, Put-Won by Berlinger, Mercersburg, 48 feet 11½ inches; second, Killcullen, Manhattan College Prep; third, Elliot, Mercersburg, 48 feet 11½ inches; Musser, State College High, 189 feet 11 inches; second, Oorlette, Swarthmore High; third, Bauerle, Upper Darby; Broad, Jump-Won by Peacock, 189 feet 11½ inches; second, Benjamin Mercersburg; third, Cobb Paddle.

McChure, pitching for the "Sox," allowed five hits, while Daro, of Cubans allowed nine frames, when he walked two in succession and by hard hitting the Cubans evened the count. The "Nox" would have got away with a shut out except for this one bad innning. Sensational fielding was pulled off by both sides. Dihigo, the Cuban all-around player, relieved his mate Daro, in the tenth innning with bases full and retired the side. After that there was nothing doing. The umpire called the game on account of darkness. Babe Morris, the League's business manager, was selected as umpire of bases. SCORE BY INNINGS.

No institution in New nity for a Negro girl to enter ships for young doctors. Group of Boston Physicians Take Over Beth Israel Hospital Move Made Primarily to Make It Possible for Young Negro Physicians to Get Hospital Experience BOSTON. May 23.—There is not a single hospital in all New England where a Negro doctor may carry his patient. He may lead them to the hospital, but he cannot cross the threshold to operate on them, nor is he called into consultation after his patient has entered the hospital. No institution in New England affords an opportunity for a Negro girl to enter as trained nurse, no internships for young doctors. Harvard. Boston University and Tufts Medical Schools provide internships through various hospitals for their white graduates, but there is an unwritten law which bans Negro students. Before a Negro student's medical education is completed he must go elsewhere than Harvard. Boston University and Tufts for his flushing touch. Only theory, with no practical training, is given to these students at these schools. Six obstetric cases are required of medical graduates before a license to practice is given. Negro graduates must rely on the good will of Negro doctors to be allowed to handle maternity cases in order to be able to meet various State law requirements for licenses. Three young Negroes were graduated cum laude from Turfs Medical School this year. Because they could not enter an A-1 hospital with their white classmates for practical experience, they were forced to appeal to Negro doctors on the outside to give them that experience. There are 132 places in the country where a Negro boy may take an internship. Out of this number only eight are recognized by the American Medical Association. At these eight institutions there are only thirty-two internes. These eight hospitals are Andrews Memorial, Tuskegee; the Harlem and Bellevue, New York; Doughtless and Mercer, Philadelphia; Freedman's, Washington, D. C.; Provident, Chicago, and the Municipal in Kansas City, Mo. The American Medical Association has recommended a law providing that no doctor be granted a license until he or she has had practical experience in an A-hospital. Fourteen States have enacted such a law. Unless some means are provided, it is said the number of Negro physicians will soon be ordinarily small.

SIXTEEN available to Negro doctors in New England, the doctors of the race are not able to give to the world any new discoveries in medical science. They are denied opportunity to perfect anything new they might have. They must accept white doctors' statements on health conditions of the race here. No opportunity to compile their own statistics is given. Colored girls may graduate as trained nurses, but they cannot get registered as such, because they cannot get training in an A-1 hospital here. To alleviate these alarming conditions, the Negro men of the medical profession, headed by Dr. Cornelius N. Garland, together with other professional and substantial business men of both races and ministers of the leading churches, have taken over Beth Israel Hospital, Townsend street, Foxbury. The property was purchased for $125,000, said to be less than half its value. The charter granted by the State for the institution reads that it is to be known as Plymouth, an institution non-sectarian, non-discriminative in its management, open to all who may need hospital care, irrespective of race, creed or color, supported by contributions and money paid by patients who can afford to pay. The hospital, a charitable institution, controlled by a trustee board of citizens of the community, is fully equipped with 50 beds. It has separate buildings, one to accommodate 13 nurses; a pathological laboratory, an X-ray outfit, and a special diet kitchen. It meets the full requirements of a recent State law—a thing which for lack of space, the old privately controlled hospital on West Springfield street, did not do and for which that institution was closed after 17 years of service to more than 3,000 patients.

Doctors Solomon C. Fuller and Augustus Hinton are those recognized specialists. Dr. Fuller specializes on mental and nervous diseases, having had charge of these deceases at the Westboro Insane Asylum over 20 years. He, a Boston University graduate, is an instructor at that university's School of Medicine and is also on the staff of the Boston Homeopathic Hospital. Dr. Hinton, a specialist on blood diseases, has charge of the laboratory of blood diseases in several of the leading hospitals here and of the Boston Dispensary. He is a Harvard man and has practiced 18 years. The hospital will be available to the trustees of the Plymouth Hospital January 1, 1928. The trustees are: Dr. Cornellus N. G.

Washington, have enjoyed the distinction of speaking to the faculty and student body of a great Northern university. This honor came to the Rev. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, last Friday morning, when he delivered an address in the chapel of Colgate University. The chapel has a seating capacity of over 1,000 and was nearly filled. In addition to the members of the faculty and 200 students, several people were present from the town of Hamilton. The Rev. Powell was met at the station by the president, Dr. George Barton Cutten, who also introduced him. Dr. Powell took for his subject "The Rulers of the Road," and for about forty minutes frankly and fearlessly discussed the delicate question of race relations. SOUTHERN BENEFICIAL BUYS IN 123D STREET Funds that have been accumulating in the bank for forty years belonging to the Southern Beneficiary League were put to use last week when on Friday the league took title to a six-story apartment house at 151-152 West 123d street at a purchase price of $100,000. Forty-one years ago the late Thomas C. Jarrott led a number of Southern-born in New York City into an organization and they called themselves the Southern League.

MAN WITH SHOTGUN IS HELD FOR THREAT William Jones, of 414 Jackson Street, Hoboken, was arrested Thursday night on a charge of possessing a dangerous weapon, after he had threatened to shoot Richard D. Miller, of 210 West 148th street. New York, with a shotgun, Miller was held as a material witness. The trouble according to Miller, was caused by a loan of $110 made by Miller to Jones, which Miller sought to collect. He got the money from Mrs. Jones and was leaving her house when her husband appeared with a shotgun and forced Miller to return the cash. Mob's Rage Gives Town New Church Stone Laid for Congregation, Whose Church Was Burned Exactly one year to the day, after a mob had burned to the ground the First Baptist Church of Cartaret, N. J., the Rev. George H. Reed, pastor of the church, laid the cornerstone of a new edifice last Sunday that will be at least four times as large as the old one, far better in construction, and located on more valuable ground. The cornerstone ceremonies began with a parade led by Exalted Ruier Harry Simmons of Superior Lodge No. 215. I. B. P. O. E. of W., and his staff, together with the members of Superior Lodge of New Brunswick and the lodge band. People of Cartaret Applaud. Where the people of Cartaret one year ago were inflamed against Negroes and were chasing them from the streets, last Sunday they stood on the sidewalks and applauded a long line of colored paraders as they passed through the principal streets of the city. In addition to the Elks, the uniformed rank, K. of P., and the Masons also marched. A platoon of city police formed an escort. At the new edifice a platform had been erected and upon it to review the paraders as they passed were the Mayor of Cartaret, Thomas Mulvihill, Councilman Frank Andres, and the Reverends C. A. Law, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Rahway, and W. A. Aitchley, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Perth Amboy. Mayor Mulvihill in his remarks said that this was a fitting sequel NATIONAL NEWS BRIEFS (Preston News Service.) WASHINGTON, D. C., May 23. Mrs. George S.

He said that the Negroes' true Christianity was shown by their erection of a church bigger and better than the one which had been so wantonly destroyed, and he congratulated the pastor for his determination to stick and rebuild after his very life had been threatened. "Truly," said the Mayor, "this means a new era in this city for colored people, and a far better one, too." Atty. Leroy Jordan, district deputy for Northern New Jersey of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., answered the Mayor's remarks with a brilliant address. John D. Robinson of the Foresters of Carset, and John Collins of the Odd Fellows, also spoke. The congregation still needs $3,000 to complete the church structure, and a committee of prominent white people of Carseture has been formed to raise the necessary money among the merchants of that city.

MAGAZINE SECTION 'Photographic Requirement a Stumbling Block' Tribune, New York Times of Sunday, May 15, contains an interesting editorial on "Fifty Years of the Merit System." The article recounts the early struggle of the civil service reformers, through whose patriotic efforts the proposition was enacted into law. Up to that time the public service was recruited through a patronage system, whereby each Senator and Congressman was allocated places in departmental service. These places were of course filled by partisans and benchmen of the benefited politicians, with little or no heed of merit or respect to the applicant for the position sought. Since high-minded and patriotic citizens as George William Curtis, Norman B. Eaton and Carl Schurz regarded the past image saturation as undermining the very foundation of the government. They advocated civic service reform as vital to the perpetuation of free institutions. One would have to project himself backward for more than a generation to gain the full significance and import of this vital reform. We are so accustomed to the process that we are disposed to think that it has always been in operation. It is the fate of the reformer. As soon as the reform proceeds, the reformer is forgotten. The Elks' Convention The Times calls attention to the progress of the movement and at the same time to the urgent need to keep up vigilance that the old patronage evil reassert its evil self again. As a student of social subjects, I find that it is necessary to examine every discussion of public interest twice—once to ascer- Grand Lodge Session Should Meet No Obstruction Here THERE can be no doubt about the mixed motives at the root of the differences of fraternal politics to deny to the people of Harlem the right to be the economic and social necessities of the next grand bourgeois session of the Houses of the Overseas. Those who have undertaken the task of informing the public to the merits or demerits of the present struggle to deny New York the convention, have tend to confuse, rather than to clarify issues involved by their loosely writing and more loosely taking. The questions involved in the present struggle are: (a) historical, (b) legal, (c) politic, and (d) selfish; a discussion will be here undertaken, based upon the foregoing categorical headlines and divisions. Historically it is significant to realize that just about twenty years ago the Negro Elks were used with a similar situation as we brought about by a similar fact and circumstance, result of the last struggle the right to change the place Grand Lodge session cause organization to be split, thousands of dollars to be into useless litigation. After the convention was voted to be New York at the last session of the Grand Lodge, held at Cleveland, O. is not denied by either side. The only excuse of food of those who would change the place of the convention is that there is now on the statute books of the State of New York certain legal restrictions and prohibitions against the order, which could prove a source of embarrassment to the officers of the fraternity If the convention was allowed to meet in New York called "Gratton" law is the precise legal outlaw and probable cause of arrest. J. Finley has this faction declare that the convention were New York, at once that authorities would upon the officers' occupation and place her or not, for this fact for this fact, just what is behind it.

Colored men and women were recruited in the classified service, as result of com- PROMISES TO BE A FRATERNAL FOOTBALL GAME By EDGAR M. GREY 2240 restricts the use by one organization of the fraternal names, secrets and titles of another organization. The history of the passage of these sections of the Penal Laws indicates that there was never the Appellate Term, the other judges concurring. The appeal was prepared and argued for the Negro Elks by Attorneys Anderson Price and D. Macon Webster. The argument of the appeal was opposed by Attorney Thomas F. Edgar M. Grey any such thing as a Gratian law and that his name was invented by some "bright attorney" in an effort to appear learned, when as a matter of fact no such thing existed. The evidence for this assertion is founded upon the fact that the last amendment to be made to Section 1556 of the Penal Laws was enacted in the year 1506, according to the legislative records of the State of New York. In order for this law, or rather, this latest amendment to the law to have taken the name of any man it should have been introduced into the Legislature by him. The legislature records show that William Grattan, senator, served from the City of Cohoes, County of Albany, from 1907 to 1916, inclusive. The senator should have been elected to office in the fall of 1905, at which time the Legislature of the State was under adjournment. The records of the Legislature do not reveal any laws passed at the instigation of Senator William Grattan which in any way have anything to do with the colored or white Elks. Upon this evidence, we are forced to the assertion that the so-called "Grattan law" is an unadulterated fabrication, and has never had any existence in fact. In about May of 1912 a friendly appeal was taken from an injunction handed down by the lower courts in favor of the B. P. O. Elks (white), against the I. B. P. O. E. restraining them from the use of the word "Elk." The word "friendly" appeal is used here for the reason that the colored organization had lost the right of appeal because their attorneys permitted the statutory period required to file a notice of appeal to lapse, and consequently it was only with the consent of the white Elks that the Negro organization was able to take this appeal. The decision in the appeal was handed down on May 24, 1912, by Mr. Justice Willard Bartlett, of petitive examinations. Theodore Roosevelt, then Civil Service Commissioner, vehemently insisted that all should have a square deal, and that merit and merit only should count. Grover Cleveland was then President. THE NEW YORK TIMES DEAN KELLY MILLER. and upheld the band of the strenuous commissioner in his attitude towards righteousness in public service. Somewhat later photographic identification was required for each applicant to prevent fraudulent tmp resonation, as frequently happened. This seemingly harmless and helpful innovation has served the vicious purpose the Appellate Term, the other judges concurring. The appeal was prepared and argued for the Negro Elks by Attorney Anderson Price and D. Macon Webster. The argument of the appeal was opposed by Attorney Thomas F. Curran for the white organization. The decision rendered was a very sweeping one, for it proposed to prohibit the use of the name of an animal, which was contrary to a well established legal rule that the name of an animal is not the subject for the exclusive use of any individual or group of individuals. The whole trouble appears to be that the interest of the Negro organization was badly handled. This injunction is reported in the law books as No. 209, New York, page 598, and purports to restrict the colored organization from the use of the word "Elks." The original restriction had been placed upon the Negro organization, by a decision of the lower courts in the year 1909, and this, too, was the result of legal blunders on the part of the attorney for the Negro Elks. This injunction has since been modified to some extent and at present what is called a "gentleman's agreement" appears to have been entered into by inference rather than by expressed agreement. Laches have been established which should prevent the white order of Elks from claiming the right to the protection of the injunction preventing the colored organization from functioning in this State for the following reasons: During the past ten years or more the colored Elks have been allowed to parade, march and to hold public demonstrations in the full view of the white organizations, in full regalia, displaying the word Elks, and that no effort has been made by the white organization or the prosecuting authorities of the County of New York to proceed with any prosecution against the Negro organization under the restraining provisions of the injunction. The word laches, in the law, is used to describe any negligence of an individual or organization with reference to a right before the law which such organization or individual possesses to enforce such rights. Then, too, at the Cleveland convention of the organization last year the I. B. P. O. E. of W, received a specific invitation from the white Elks to bring their next session to the City of New York, which communication bore an implied assurance of protection for the session. The fact also that during the Silver Jubilee celebration of the City of New York, during the closing days of the Hyllan administration, the Negro Elks were permitted to parade side by side with white lodges of Elks without protest. In regard to the political aspects of the present discussion. THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 1927 By KELLY MILLER of effectively shutting out the colored race from entering the classified service. Under the law, the Civil Service Commission, when called upon, must certify to the appointing officers of the several departments of the government three of the highest names on the list. With the photograph in hand these appointing officers always reject the applicant whose face shows pigmentation, regardless of his rank on the list. Cases have been known where a candidate with concealed pigmentation has been cited for appointment and then turned down when on reporting closer inspection revealed the trace of color which the photograph did not disclose. Although in the earlier years hundreds of the race qualified under the competitive test and received appointments in the classified service, yet today, after our schools and colleges have greatly improved in facilities and methods of instruction, scarcely any of the off-colored group are able to secure positions of clerical grade. The ranks of the colored clerk are gradually fading. Thousands have been reduced to hundreds; and hundreds will soon be reduced to tens, and tens to zero. A lake with outlet without inlet must soon run dry. A knowing friend who keeps in touch with inside information advised me the other day that there are now less than three hundred colored clerks in the departments at Washington. President Coolidge has given definite assurance to more than one Negro delegation that he was going to effectually wipe out racial segregation in the public it may be pointed out that the proper enforcement officer of the criminal laws of the State is the District Attorney in each county. Since the sessions would be held in the County of New York, the officer who would be charged with the enforcement of this law would be District Attorney Joah B. Hanton and other members of his staff. It might be stated here that anything which a white citizen would be allowed to do in New York City, the Negro citizen would also be permitted to do for the reason that he is politically too strong for any prohibitions to be placed upon his legal actions. The Republican Attorney General cannot, contrary to popular opinion, interfere with the prosecution of the criminal laws of the State unless he is invited to do so by the Governor of the State, and then only when the prosecuting officer of the county has failed to act. Since the officer in this county is Democratic, he can hardly be expected to interfere with the proceedings of the sessions of the Negro Elks. The police department of the City of New York has already granted permission for the parade and also a permit to hold the dance. So it can be seen that no objection may be looked for from this angle. The laws of the Negro organization give the Grand Exalted Ruler the power to change the place of a convention only where a grave emergency develops which did not exist at the time when the place of convention was decided upon by the Grand Lodge sessions; and since the conditions which J. Finley Wilson has offered as his excuse for wanting to change the place of the convention existed at the time that the last convention voted to hold its next session in New York, his excuse does not hold good. Exalted Ruler Wilson is motivated by the fear that he would be defeated if the convention were held in the City of New York. He is positive that he cannot be re-elected here. Yet, he desires to dominate the order for a lifetime, and hence he proposes to split the order now in the same way that Howard and others caused it to be split nearly twenty years ago. Wilson appears to be actually displaying the worst kind of selfishness in his attitude. The New York faction has determined to hold a convention here next August, regardless of the actions of the Grand Exalted Ruler and his supporters. Cloth service. So far we have not been able to discern any direct evidence of his declared purpose. He has been in office for fifty-five months and has twenty-two months yet to serve. It would be an interesting and engaging task to discover how many colored clerks have been withdrawn from the service through resignation, death and retirement during the present incumbency, and how many fresh recruits have been added to take the place of those who have fallen out. One wonders if Mr. Coolidge has in mind to get rid of segregation by getting rid of the segregated group. If he is renominated and elected, and if the colored clerical contingency continues to decline as rapidly during the next four years as it has during the last quadrennium, there will be no further need of delegations besieging the White House on the issue of departmental segregation. For the past four years I have been hammering away, as best I could, on the iniquitous injustice of the civil service machinery. I have urged the politicians and statesmen of the race to focus their efforts on this evil. I have urged the Civil Service Reform League, the Civil Service Commission and the President of the United States to wipe out this moral sigma from the machinery of our national government. No whit abashed, I shall continue to hammer until something gives way. The Civil Service offers a respectable outlier for hundreds of our educated youth, a privilege out of which they are being cheated by the government itself. The race has 2 "Italy Also Has a North and a South" MILAN, Italy. ALTHOUGH the Italian language is almost so much Greek to me, I am beginning to feel quite at home now, chiefly because of two things: Italy has its North and South, and it also has Fascism. The northern Italian believes himself superior to the southern one, and from the standpoint of intellectual and commercial development he is. In the words of a resident American with whom I had a long chat, "They're so different they seem to belong to separate races." In this part of Italy it is almost as easy to get a hearing against the southern Italian as it is to get one against the Japanese in California; the Negro in the South, or the Jew in New York. In a conversation with a number of young Fascists praised northern Italy, and then referred to the condition, whereupon what one of them said about southern Italians in general made me feel quite at home. Mankind everywhere has its little hates, and seem to be as uncomfortable without them as a fussy old maid who can find nothing to complain about. Milan, too—a very old city—has its spots almost as bad as Naples, but it is on the whole, a progressive, commercial and manufacturing center of about 700,000 population. Its chief business district—the Duomo—compares favorably in appearance with that of any of our great American cities, not to mention the fact that it is handsomer and more artistic than any in America. The chief church of Milan is the Duomo, or Cathedral, which is inferior in size only to St. Peter's. It is very ornate on the Outside, with its 4,500 niches and statues of 3,000 salons. And the interior! If compared, the pillars of the Duomo at Florence to the trunks of the giant trees in California, to what shall I liken these of Milan? The fact that it seats 40,000 will give some idea of its size. It is my purpose to devote the rest of this article—my last on Italy—to the nation's most absorbing topic—Mussolini—so just a word about Genos, the great shipping center, in which I spent a day. Genos, it will be recalled, is the birthplace of Christopher Columbus, to whom there is a monument in front of the railroad sta- I suggested to the Civil Service Commission the substitution of the Blnet test for photographic identification. The commission rejoined that the process would be too cumbersome to operate. How long will our high-minded government allow the mere incidents of administration to stand in the way of justice and fairness to its citizens? I here and now suggest to our men of public influence to urge upon Congress to amend the law in such manner that no citizen who sustains, the competitive test shall be cheated out of his reward. I shall proceed to draft an amendment to the Clyl Service Law, and hope to get some of my friends in both houses of Congress to introduce and push it to successful enactment. I beg, however, that our politicians — use the term with respect — utilize their inside influence, and take the matter out of my hands. The laying of the egg is of more importance than the hatching thereof. It is interesting to note that our two largest cities have placed colored men on their civil service board. Both New York and Chicago have made such assignments. In the latter case, we are told that the mayor made the assignment, with purpose aforethought. The colored race we are informed, has been flagrantly discriminated against by the city civil service machinery. Mayor Thompson wishes all of this stopped, and places a colored man on the staff to see, to it that justice is done his race. Why is this not a reasonable and reasonable suggestion to the national government? The injustice to the Negro in the civil ITALY'S "BENEVOLENT DESPOT" By J. A. ROGERS tion.

Rogers — owner of New York Bay. Visitors to the Battery in New York will recall his statue there. Mussolini II Duce (The Chief) The other thing that made me feel at home, as I said, was Fascism, or should I say Mussolini. I have been through the agitation that waged around Garvey in Harlem in 1822, and I have but to shut my eyes and cars to color, to issues, and watch human conduct, to hear the same old tune sung to different words. Not that there is any storm of discussion here now—I got that impression by reading back—for Fascism is in saddle and Italy is like a one-way street, or one of those one-way sidewalks in Naples on which, if you attempt to walk in the other direction, you'll be quickly chased by a black-shifted policeman. All Italy loves Mussolini, and speaks well of him. As I said in another article, I soon learned that I had better love him and speak well of him myself. A few months ago a smart young American got himself into a peck of trouble here. In an argument with a cabman over a fare, the American said he thought Mussolini was "a big cheese." or words to that effect. To find out what some Italians really think about Mussolini or Fascism, which term you prefer, one must get out of Italy. One might take a chance and speak a part of his mind in some of the larger cities, but several American, English and French persons with whom I have talked say it's worth one's life to say anything against him in the smaller towns. become intimidated. SPECIAL ARTICLES "Number of Negroes in Civil Service Dwindling" service is too painfully obvious. It is hard to see how Mr. Coolidge can reconcile this with his New England conscience. Would it not be a capital idea to place a colored man on the commission, whose very presence would insure racial justice? Some time ago, when there was a vacancy on the commission which must be filled by a woman, under the law, I suggested the name of Mary Church Terrell, who is as well qualified for the position as any woman in America, white or black. The proposition was made in one of my releases. But I suppose my lack of political sagacity caused the suggestion to fall short of merited attention. So far as I can recall, no influential Negro paper or politician seconded the motion. The race is a slave to precedent. There are a dozen candidates for the position of Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia and Register of the Treasury under each incoming administration. The only reason that can be put forward why the race concentrates on those positions is because some colored man has had them in the past. They have absolutely no racial function or relation. The Register of the Treasury has no more Another thing about Fascism that had a familiar ring to me is that the charges against it, most of which are true, read very like the history of the Klan in Reconstruction days — assassinations, whippings, malming, the invasion and destruction of private homes, the raiding and burning of newspaper offices, and other outrages. And somehow, just as in the case of a lynching, the police never happen to be around, or are powerless to deal with the situation. In one year seventy-six anti-Fascists are said to have been assassinated, one of them being Mussolini's leading opponent, Matteotti. At present no newspaper is permitted to print any opinion hostile to Mussolini; labor is not permitted to go on strike; the death sentence, which was abolished, has been revived; jazz is not permitted—a reason why colored Americans are very scarse in Italy; dancing and other amusements are reduced to a minimum, and work is the order of the day. The Duce, a tireless worker, aims to have all Italy following his example. The only diversion freely permitted is church-going, and it is said the Duce would have a finger in that pie, too, but the church is too strong. A red hot Socialist in his earlier days, he was also antilegy. One law of his that will be of interest to the ladies is that all men over twenty-five must marry or pay a tax. Did I hear a chorus of bachelors say that the tax, which is about ten dollars a year, is cheap at any price? It seems to me that one of the single ladies instead would bring better results. The Duce is also against beards, which, of course, makes a bit with the barbers. Yes, Italy is Mussolini, and Mussolini, Italy. "L'etat, c'est moi?" Of course, there's a king but he seems about as important as one of those henpecked husbands one sees in moving comedies. Placards bearing the picture of himself and the Dice are posted all over the kingdom. In this picture, the king is shown as being taller than Mussolini, which is not only not so, but is what Roosevelt would call nature-faking, for it is almost impossible to be shorter than the king. He is such a midgut that he wears ladies' beels, and, I understand, an inside heel, too. Mussolini is the perfect example of a man who has reversed himself. Before the war he had served sentences in the prisons of five European countries for his pronouncements against capitalism and militarism. Now he is the spokesman of capital. He like the Pope, also opposes Freemasonry. For instance, he said, recently as regards free speech: "Be it known, once for all, that Fascism knows no idols, worship no fetishes. It has already stepped and if needs be will quietly turn around to step once more, over relation to the welfare of the Negro race as such than the Astronomer at the Naval Observatory. But here is a position that is closely related to racial interest and advantage. Why should the race not unite on securing this position which carries with it the possibility of large racial usefulness? The Negro makes a great many demands of the party of his preference before election and of the administration immediately after election. Usually the guileful candidate knows how to jolly the brother in politics until his vote is secured and to soft soap him after the victory has been won. I seem to have some faint recollection of one Mr. Matthews and his fourteen points. But they amounted to less than the scrap of paper upon which they were written. If the race will now, in advance of nomination and election, insist with unified and persistent insistence upon the righteous amendment of the Civil Service Act which will insure simple justice to colored applicants and upon the selection of a colored man for a place on the Civil Service Commission, there is no good reason why we might not secure one or both of these patriotic objectives. --- Fascism Reminds the Author of Gar- veyism the more or less patrid body of the goddess, Liberty." Match these with the following uttered while he was a Socialist: "What we need are discussions, clashes of views, strife ... Unanimity, uniformity, spell brains and death. Strife is the origin of all things." Is it any wonder that the Socialists, muzzled now, hate him with the bitterest hate? On the other hand, almost every resident foreigner with whom I have talked agrees that Mussolini has been the savior of Italy. He has improved the railroads, now all efficiently run under government ownership; cleaned up the cities in comparison with what they were; bettered education—Italy has an illiteracy rate higher than that of the Mississippi Negro, or Georgia poor white—saved the Ilia, which was about to go the way of the mark; and, in short, restored order out of the chaos that followed the Versailles treaty. It was a case of choosing between the devil and the deep sea, and the Italianes chose the deep sea, because in that case has not one a chance to swim? His pronouncements in favor of capital had the effect of inspiring confidence in investors. It is to be doubted whether the Socialists would have done anything near as well. Most radicals, like most very religious folks, are usually content to waste their time and that of others in bitter strife over printing details. Moreover, much of this iron-handed rule has been invited by the anti-Fascists, who used to treat the Fascists pretty much as how they, themselves, are now being treated. One evening at Cremona twelve young Fascists were killed. In brief! Mussolini is "a benevolent despot," with none of the Caesar pose one sees in his popular pictures. But, of course, the masses which take to Fascism as they do to a dog fight or the latest song or any other novelty are looking for fireworks or a miracle—a reason for not judging Marcus Garvey too harshly. The average Fuscipist fondly believes that Mussolini is going to restore all the power of old Rome, as Garvey's followers looked for his African kingdom. Of course, Mussolini, with something to lose, has to be more careful with his words than Garvey. Both England and France have huge fleets next door. My next article will be from Monte Carlo, the town that in the matter of "the numbers" has something to teach even Harlem, and where the "Numbers Barons" are really barons, indeed.

They were on duty around the park, some keeping back the crowd, others directing people to different parts of the park, and some helped of schools set up their May poles, and a ballet troupe May dance in the park. Some of the Scouts from 773 and 775 served as orderlies and directors; others had various duties to perform. And another thing—some of the Scouts did not have to go back to school at 11 o'clock and that added to the cheerfulness—a Scout is generally cheerful. Troop Visitor. Well, Scouts, Troop 786 had a visit Tuesday evening. He was Guy Wilkinson, who was not many years ago the best patrol leader in Panama. Mr. Williamson is now a young man, but he expressed that he should have the old scouting spirit in him and has the new scouting spirit in the street he would treat him as a brother Scout.

TAROLEUM WILDROOT'S crude-oil SHAMPOO Indigestion Relieved "I drive a car for hire," says Mr. Ike Sobel, of Gadsden, Ala., "and have to get up and go, early and late. Consequently I can't have regular hours for eating and sleeping. I occasionally have indigestion and find it necessary to take a laxative. I had heard of Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT Purelu Vegetable for a long time. The druggist told me Black-Draught would help me. I bought a package and had it made in to tea and take it any time I feel the need of a laxative. It always helps me. I have much better appetite after I take Black-Draught. I can eat about everything I want and feel full of pep. I would not be without it for double the price." Black-Draught can be taken dry or made into a tea, as you prefer. Either way, it costs only one cent a dose. Sold Everywhere EC-13 BAPTIST MOUNT OLIVET BAPTIST CHURCH 201 Lenox avenue, Rev. William P.

Annual A.M.E Conference Meets Most Peaceful Session Ever HeldPresiding Elders Changed BY WALTER R. LOFTON. Official Conference Reporter. What was considered the most peaceful and most successful session of the New York Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church ever held in its history came to a close Sunday afternoon, May 22, when Presiding Bishop William H. Heard announced that the 105th annual session had adjourned. This came after the reading of the appointments. The session was held May 18-22 at the historic Bethel Church, 52-60 West 132d street, of which Dr. H. K. Spearman is pastor. Bishop Hoard had associated with him Rt. Dr. B. Beecher Johnson, presiding bishop of the church District of the A. M. E. Church. They were assisted by Presiding Elders S. H. V. Gumbs and Montrose W. Thornton. The members of Bethel Church entertained the members of the conference free, as over $1,000 has been raised prior to the ordination for purpose. There were no unusual pastors in the large churches. The presiding elders, however, were shifted. Dr. Thornton was given the Manhattan district, and Dr. Gumbs was given the Brooklyn district. Dr. Spearman was returnd to Bethel Church, and Dr. Tylor was returned sixth year. He is one of the few ministers that have ever been sent to Bridge Street for six years. Dr. Spearman carried off several laurels. He raised $2,050 Dollar amount raised by any church, the denomination this year. He was elected to lead his delegation at the general conference, and was indorsed for the Bishopric. He nearly $200,000 had been raised by all the churches for all purposes during the year. Over $10,000 was collected during the year. The district led with $4,315. The Brynlyn district reported $3,757. Dr. Tyrler, pastor of Bridge Street Church, raised the second highest amount of the annual conference. He reported $1,550. There are over 10,000 members of this denomination in the state over twenty-one. With the Sunday School children there are about 10,000 connected with the A.M. E. Church in the state, according to reports. Among the general officers present were: Drs. D. M. Baxter, manager of the M. Morris Concern; S. M.

"She is strong and robust because she lives a simple, healthy, natural life. She is courageous and resourceful in times of trouble. She lives outdoors most of the time—Africans go into their huts only to sleep. In the morning, when she gets up, she eats a simple meal of food similar to corn meal mush and some fruit. Then at about four o'clock in the afternoon the family has its main meal of the day, consisting of rice, fish and palm oil." "Some of you may think of Africa as a savage country, with few refinements and little culture," continued Mrs. Hayford; "but, on the contrary, you will find there some of the finest examples of beautiful family life seen anywhere. You will find unselfish interest in the welfare of the community. "For example, if there is a wedding the whole community assists in the preparations. If there is a funeral, everyone helps with this. If you are hungry and have no food, you may, go to your neighbor's field or orchard and eat your fill." Mrs. Hayford, who wore a native costume and several fine gold chains made by Africans, told of the poetry and romance of the country's folk-lore, which is handed down from father to son. She described a native African wooing, with its poetic beauty, and told of other native customs. "My work is to get the women of the country to preserve these customs and all the native beauty of the African race," Mrs. Hayford said. "I want them to see that they have a contribution for the world, and to help them keep that contribution, so that civilization will not destroy it." After Mrs. Hayford's talk, tea was served. A committee was appointed to take charge of arrangements for the celebration of the Harlem Committee's fifth anniversary this summer. Mrs. Augusta Corbin was elected chairman; Mrs. Oma Price, vice-chairman; Mrs. Elsie Gibbs, secretary, and Mrs. Lucien Brown, treasurer. The guests at the tea were: Mrs. Caseley Hayford, Mrs. Oma Price, Mrs. Augusta Corbin, Mrs. J. Hansen, Mrs. Lucien Brown, Mrs. Blanch Glover, Mrs. Elsie Gibbe, Mrs. Edgar Parks, Mrs. Mae Hubert, Mrs. Anna Jones Robinson, Mrs. M. McDonald, Miss Lucille Todd, Miss Issa Gittreten, Mrs. J. Winfield, and Mrs. Mabel Doyle Keaton. Members who attended the committee meeting were: Dr. Henry O. Harding, Mrs. E. P. Roberts, Mrs. W.

A New Convert in Sing Sing BRUTH BROWN SNYDER, under sance of death for having murdered his keeping husband, has turned Catholic probably in the hope of escaping electric chair, and not so much because a desire to make peace with his maker. The Daily News a few days so said: A New Convert in Sing Sing RUTH BROWN SNYDER, under sentence of death for having murdered her sleeping husband, has turned Catholic, probably in the hope of escaping the electric chair, and not so much because of a desire to make peace with her Maker. The Daily News a few days ago said: How else reasonably interpret her professed conversion to a religion other than that in which she was born and bred, when you consider that her new religion is the same as the religion of the man in whose hands her fate now lies? We hope we are mistaken as to the motive for the conversion, but have yet to be convinced that we are. WHILE we believe that religion plays so great a part in determining how the laws of this State are carried out in capital offenses, we do not believe the law. Smith has nerve enough to fly the face of public opinion and grapple executive clemency in such a premised and unwarranted murder. He is good a politician for that.

IF RUTH BROWN SNYDER does not die in the chair—unless she escapes it by recourse to law—the State may as well throw it avail, dismantle the death house and abolish, forever, capital punishment. EDITORIAL PAGE The Civil Service KELLY MILLER, in his article this week, points out the importance to the Negro of having a member of his race appointed to the United States Civil Service Commission, to prevent the gross system of discrimination that has grown up in the service, since applicants for positions have been required to furnish photographs of themselves. We record also this week the decision of Supreme Court Justice Levy, upholding Dr. Mark L. Fleming, general superintendent of Bellevue Hospital, who denied an appointment to a young Negro X-ray expert, under circumstances which appear questionable, however justified the doctor may have been in passing over the name of the Negro applicant for the vacancy, who stood highest on the civil service list. NEW YORK CITY has already a Negro on its Civil Service Commission, and it would be interesting to have this official issue a statement as to the attitude of the Commission in the case cited. There is no Negro member on the State Civil Service Commission; a fact which reflects upon Gov. Al Smith's muchalked-of but little-evidenced squaredeal policy; especially since charges of discrimination have been placed at the door of that State commission. DENIAL OF APPOINTMENT to city, state or government positions because of race or creed is an inimical practice one calculated to completely disrupt the service—and should be stopped. The appointment of Negro members, along with members of other interested racial groups, while not the most democratic solution of the practice, is certainly better than having citizens of the state and nation feel that merit, as proven by civil service examinations, is not the deciding factor in the making of appointments. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Democratic Situation in Har Democratic Situation in Harlem To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Sir. Permit me to say that the article by Mr. M. Grey, "Morton's Decline," in your last issue, should be of interest to colored voters Democratic and Republican. Although I am the recognized colored Democrat leader of Bronx County, I find myself in agreement with what Mr. Grey says to the mental error of appointive or group leaders whether it be white or colored. I have long seen that, such leadership based as it was, not the electorate of the district, could not go on hand with true democracy, nor could it be a permanent benefit to the masses of the people. In saying this I hold no brief for any of the district leaders for most of them, of whatever are provincial when they come to deal with colored man, because they have not had to r with his vote in the party council, but the people, as I see it, cannot hope to improve political status by counteracting colored leader not based upon the electorate of the respo political districts. To me, the host thing for the colored vote whatever party is to crowd into the respo district clubs in great numbers and support or to change the constituted leadership, be it or black. But, until such time when the colored voter have been fully assimilated into these regular trict clubs and is able to make his influence the county chairman, because of the past hand should see to it that the colored group is dealt most liberally as to patronage. We should never lose sight of the fact, thou be of personal benefit, that anything which separa the race of mankind, including the church, be of group, birthplace, creed, or color, is consil or unconsciously a generator of hate and in- nance. Therefore, Mr. Grey's criticism as to s gated leadership is just and very constructive. Permit me to say that the article by Mr. Edgar M. Grey, "Morton's Decree," in your last week's issue, should be of interest to colored voters, both Democratic and Republican. Although I am the recognized colored Democratic leader of Bronx County, I find myself in complete agreement with what Mr. Grey says to the fundamental error of appointive or group leadership, whether it be white or colored. I have long ago seen that such leadership based as it was not upon the electorate of the district, could not go hand in hand with true democracy, nor could it be of any permanent benefit to the masses of the people. In saying this I hold no brief for any of the white district leaders for most of them, of whatever party, are provincial when they come to deal with the colored man, because they have not had to reckon with his vote in the party council, but the colored people, as I see it, cannot hope to improve their political status by counteracting colored leadership, not based upon the electorate of the respective political districts. To me, the best thing for the colored voters of whatever party is to crowd into the respective district clubs in great numbers and support or help to change the constituted leadership, be it white or black. But, until such time when the colored voter shall have been fully assimilated into these regular district clubs and is able to make his influence felt the county chairmen, because of the past handicap, should see to it that the colored group is dealt with most liberally as to patronage. We should never lose sight of the fact, though it be of personal benefit, that anything which separates the race of mankind, including the church, because of group, birthplace, creed, or color, is consciously or unconsciously a generator of hate and intolerance. Therefore, Mr. Grey's criticism as to segregated leadership is just and very constructive. Very truly yours. (Signed) EUGENE McINTOSH. Executive Member, Bronx Colored Voters' Democratic Progressive Association, 360 East 165th Street, New York City, May 20, 1927. To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Dear Sir: I noticed in your issue of May 18 an article written by Mr. Edgar M. Grey, entitled "Ichabod, Thy C Has Departed." In that article Mr. Grey in course of writing stated that certain conditions existed in the Democratic Party and drifted a until 1921 when the Democrats decided that time had come to place in nomination name Negro candidates for elective offices. I noticed in your issue of May 15 an article written by Mr. Edgar M. Grey, entitled "Ichabod, Thy Glory Has Departed." In that article Mr. Grey in the course of writing stated that certain conditions existed in the Democratic Party and drifted along until 1921 when the Democrats decided that the time had come to place in nomination names of Negro candidates for elective offices. Permit me, through the columns of your paper, to inform Mr. Grey and the general public that this change of which he mentioned was brought about largely through my efforts in communicating the facts to the leaders of the Democratic Party! Namely, Charles F. Murphy, Thomas F. Smith, Mr. Holohan, leader of the Twenty-first Assembly District, Judge Allen, former leader of the Nineteenth Assembly District, August Welsh, leader of the Thir- teenth Assembly District, and Ferdinand Q. Morton. Many letters on this subject passed between myself and Judge Allen in which many reasons were pointed out by him and in reply was cleared up by my letters. It was then in the fall that this change came about. Copies of these letters will be given to you for By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE American Federation of Musicians THE American Federation of Musicians has just closed its thirty-second annual convention, to which delegates came from practically every local musicians union in the United States and engaged in musical deliberations at the Southern Hotel, Baltimore, Md. About twelve colored delegates were present, representing outstanding local unions in such typical cities as Washington, D. C., Pittsburgh, Chicago, Philadelphia, and other urban centers where colored musicians are particularly active. Despite the ominous game "Southern Hotel," and the Southern atmosphere which the Federation selected for its convention, the Negro delegates braved long-distance travel and presented themselves to the conference only to be told by the Southern Hotel management, as might have been contemplated, that they would have to ride up and down stairs to and from the convention in the freight elevators, while their white contenders would be accommodated in the regular passenger elevators. The white bloc of delegates professed that they were charrimined and hurt; that the elevator policy was not of their making or choice, and that they sincerely sympatized with their colored heirloom that such unharmonious principles should be set up at a convention where the virtues of sweet music only was the objective of the hour. The convention, however, continued, and no protest, as far as we can learn, was urged, either in or out of the record, against the shabby treatment which the Baltimore hostelry meted out to the Nero delegates. Our memory naturally reverts to a report of the occasion, when one Ferrell, colored, accompanied the New York delegation of the Knights of Labor (parent of the American Federation of Labor) to Richmond, Va., nearly 50 years ago; and when the Solid South of Virginia objected to Mr. Ferrell's presence and participation in the convention, the New York body withdrew in toto and refused to do business with the Conference until Ferrell was recognized, and treated as a gentleman and a delegate. There was no one present in Baltimore, however, with the temerity which Ferrell's associates had, and out of the insult there comes the reaction that the American Federation of Musicians, like its guardian, the American Federation of Labor, is dealing fairly with the "brother" IN WORDS ONLY: NOT DEEDS It remains for the colored membership the country over to "smoke out" the parent body and ascertain, for once and for all, whether good faith and sliveress or deception and spinelessness abound in the A. F. of L. Colored musicians are strong the country over. They are badly needed in musical organization. In fact, they can "make" or "break" any musical association that is genuinely organized for the welfare of labor. Next year's A. F. of M. convention will probably be held even further south than Baltimore; and the colored members might as well begin right now to find out whether they are to be insulted by other hotel proprietors to whom their money goes for hall rent, or whether in future conventions they are to be dealt with as men and musicians. A settlement of this query will not wait any longer. The Drama "The Awakening," by Mary White Ovington, is to be presented by a group at a midnight hour at the Lafayette Theatre on Tuesday evening, June 7. The proceeds from this benefit performance will be given to the Negro sufferers in the Mississippi section. Under the direction of Mrs. Lillian Hawkins-Jackson, a pupil of Richard B. Harrison, the cast is being trained. The leading parts will be played by Misses Dorothy DeAncy, Augusta Yates, Mae Neely; Richard Terry, Edler Hawkins, Albert Hawkins and Abhue Williams. The national office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has endorsed this performance for the purpose stated. The Negro in the World's Literature Bu THOMAS L. G. OXLEY publication if you care to let the general public know the facts through the columns of your paper. I am. JUPITER HAMMON was the first American Negro poet of whom any record is extant. Very little is known about the life of this pioneer Negro poet. His first poem: An Evening Thought, bears the date of 1760, the earliest poem on record in Negro literature in America. This was nine years before Phillis Wheatley. This poet was a slave belonging to Mr. Lloyd of Queen's Village, on Long Island. Hammons' poetry was published mostly at Hartford, where his master fled from the English occupation of Long Island. The poetry of Hammon is crude, incoherent in thought, fat and uneven. He was intensely religious and it is therefore apparent that his poems would likewise be intensely religious. No one on reading the poems of this unlearned slave should expect to find genuine poetry. He wrote the poetry of the eighteenth century; poetry that was swayed by dogmatic sentiments. An Evening Thought runs as follows: Dear Jesus, give Thy Spirit now. Thy grace to ever Nation. that hasn't the Lord to whom we how MUSIC Cecil Cohen in Recital Coming as a very welcome relief from the recent barrage of Sunday afternoon song recitals, Hall Johnson, well known violinist, presented Cecil Cohen in a program of piano music at the Grace Congregational Church last Sunday afternoon. Mr. Cohen, teacher of piano in the Howard University School of Music, offered a program resident and sparkling with beautiful tone colors, primarily ostentatious but withal varied, interesting and musically palatable. Staid piano concert-goers must have fretten a bit over the conspicuous absence of Bach and Beethoven from the program. Even the Braham Ballads and the Chopin group could not atone for the absence of one of the more serious styles of composition by either of the immortal B's. Then, too, a consideration of unity in the detail of program making might have made the musical menu easier to digest. More thought, for instance, to climatic order, key succession and contrasts of style and character. However, Mr. Cohen's playing was notable for its lucidity, fluency, and freedom from mannerisms. His tone was warm, luscious and engaging. The Brahms Ballads, Faure Impromptu, Debussy Preflude and Gruntfeld Etude were among his best numbers. They were well executed tonally and technically save for an occasional false note, noticeable especially where wide skirts were demanded. The important thing, however, and the one in which he succeeded splendidly, was the bringing to his hearers a true musical message, not flawless perhaps, but beautiful, clear and authoritative. His audience was lamentably small but extremely appreciative and responsive. Again and again he was enriched; and even after the conclusion of the final number every one waited in his seat, reluctant to leave, hoping for just a bit more of the musical treat. U. G. C. Signor Luis C. Varona, premier violinist of Santiago Oriente, Cuba, gave his American debut recital Wednesday evening in the concert hall of the Harlem Casino, 116th street and Lenox avenue. A fairly representative audience (mostly Latin-Americans) was present to do homage to their countryman and to listen again to the violinistic skill that has made for him an enviable reputation throughout the Cuban Republic. The program opened with the famous Bruch concerto in G minor followed by Brindis de Salas "La Abuelita," and the Kreisler "Sehon Rosmarin." The second part of the program was made up of folk music, classic dances and programmatic numbers whose content is not only well known and loved by the Spanish speaking races, but portrays episodes in their everyday life that also musically characterizes their racial identity. The recitalist, gave a good account of himself throughout the program, displaying not only fine talent, but unusual facility in fingering and shifting. Probably his most remarkable rift was his LETTERS The Author of Salvation. From An Address to Miss Phillis Wheatley, Ethiopian Poet he writes: Bishu While thousands muse with earthly toys. And range about the street. Dear Phillis, seek for heaven's joys. Where we do hope to meet. A Poem for Children, with Thoughts on Death, contains such stanzas as this: 'Tis God alone can make you wise. His wisdom's from above. He fills the soul with sweet supplies By his dedeeming love. From A Dialogue Entitled the Kind Master and the Dutiful Servant, I take the following stunzas: Master Then will the happy day appear, That virtue shall increase; Lay up the sword and drop the spear. And Nations seek for peace. Servant Then shall we see the happy end, Tho' still in some distress; That distant foes shall act like That distant foes shall act like friends And leave their wickedness. The date of Hammon's birth and death are unknown. defitness with the bow. A wrist, marvelously loose and supple, gave him splendid assurance in every type of bowing. The execution of the splicetto being especially good, crisp and often dazzling. His tone, however, was cold, indifferent and ordinary. He clearly exerts in selections of a light, quick, playful character, a most notable example being his own "Zapateo Cubano." Signor Varona should profit by a few years of study in this country with some of the leading violin masters and thereby equip himself with that polish and muscianship necessary to the true artist. U. G. C. Ethel Huffman Chambres, talented girl violinist of St. Louis, gave a very successful recital Tuesday evening in Englewood, N. J., under the auspices of the Social Service Federation of that suburb. Miss Ethel McGheen sponsored the concert, the proceeds of which went to help establish a scholarship fund for students of social service activity. Ethel Oughton Clarke, another aspirant to the vocal concert field, was beard in a song recital at the Imperial Auditorium, West 12th street, last evening. Miss Clarke, who is a coloratura soprano, arranged a very lovely program, including several of the most beautiful as well as most difficult artists. In coloratura literature. These old favorites, especially the Mad Scene from Lucia, and Curo None, from Rigoloteo, always do honor to the repertoire of anyone who can creditably sing them. Unfortunately, nature has not been so kind to Miss Clarke from the vocal standpoint and often she found herself unequal to the huge demands of voice and technique that were made upon her. In spots her voice was rather pleasing, and she has acquired a somewhat admirable staccato. English and Italian diction suffered from a natural handicap. Edward Margertson, pianist, assisted with a Chopin "Impromptu" and a Liszt Mazurka. The note obligates played by Jose Lavezzari and the accompaniments by Edwardo Coleman were creditably done. U. G. C. The National, New York and Brooklyn Urban Leagues are presenting the Howard University Glee Club of Washington, D. C. at Town Hall, 123 West Portythird street, Tuesday evening, May 31. In a program of classical music and spirituals. The assisting artist will be Harry T. Burleigh. Prof. Roy W. Tibbs, head of the music department at Howard University, is director of the Glee Club. This occasion will mark the first appearance of this group at Town Hall. The pupils of Miss Alyce Fraser, soprano, will be heard in a piano and vocal recital at Imperial Auditorium, 160 West 129th street. Friday evening, June 3. SALEM DAY OBSERVANCE UDGED BY LEAGUE BOSTON, Mass., May 23, 1927. —Today the national headquarters of the National Equal Rights League issued a call for Negroes everywhere to observe Salem Day on June 17, anniversary of America's first regular battle for independence, in which Negro soldiers were heroes, especially Peter Salem and Salem Poor. BISHOP CAREY did not desert the church to go into politics. Somewhile ago he did desert politics to go into the bishopric. Kelly Miller, who joins everything queer these days, has joined the chorus of the pietists, who seem to think the Bishop has committed a crime by accepting a political job and leaving his place in the church. Well, let's be plain: Carey is a politician; was a politician before he got into the bishopric; was a politician while he was bishop, and will be a politician if his bishop days come to an end—a politician first, last and all the time. If he had not been a good politician, his type never could have "captured" the bishopric; he had to outdo the other politicians who were after the same position in the church. Now, the time for Kelly have their howl was when the church. That was the is now coming back home, j missioner Carey is much than Bishop Carey. He will his "race" and for all others would ever do in the office think. And he will do a sir. He would not be a fair wish to predict that he will years as Commissioner that years as Bishop.

We are not only glad that political office, but we hope and become Mayor of Chicago we could pick out some other ren" for whom we would re Carey find some appointive j would not be such a burden them who are poor ministers. Now, the time for Kelly and the rest of the pack to have their howl was when Carey "deserted" politics for the church. That was the real desertion. The Bishop is now coming back home, just where he belongs. Commissioner Carey is much more appropriate (for him) than Bishop Carey. He will do just as much good for his "race" and for all others in the Chicago office as he would ever do in the office of bishop—more good, we think. And he will do a sight more of good for Carey. He would not be a failure on either job—but we wish to predict that he will make more money in four years as Commissioner than he would make in forty years as Bishop. And those who will lose the cash which he will make as Commissioner are much better able to lose it than are those who would lose the cash which he would make as Bishop. That's stripping the truth naked. But, besides, there are many more men who can fill his place in the A.M.E. Church than there are who can fill his place in the city of Chicago. He can be of immense service to Negroes as Commissioner of Civil Service in Chicago—if he tries to. And, again: Has not a preacher the same right to share in the government (and the emoluments) of his country and city as have other people? It is an outworn superstition that preachers must eschew politics. If Christians and bishops are better than other people, politics will be better when we get more Christians and bishops into it. We are not only glad that the Bishop went into this political office, but we hope and trust that he will stay, and become Mayor of Chicago next time if he can. And we could pick out some others from among the "brethren" for whom we would recommend that Commissioner Carey find some appointive jobs in his department. They would not be such a burden to Chicago. And many of them who are poor ministers would be capital politicians. BOOK REVIEW THEODORE ROOSEVELT: HERO TO HIS AMos.

This is the first question comes to mind after reading James E. Amos' book on Theodore Roosevelt. Amos, who is now a special agent in the Department of Justice, served as a personal attendant to Mr. Roosevelt for a period of twenty years. He was with Roosevelt when he breathed his last on January 10, 1910, in his home at Oyster Bay, New York. Amos may have regarded himself merely as a valet, but he was evidently more than that, and Mr. Roosevelt himself seems to have been cognizant of the fact before he died. In a letter of recommendation, he stated that Amos was fitted for work of "clerical, administrative, or supervisory character"; certainly not necessarily qualities monopolized by a valet. Volved in the Brownsville shooting after—also a much debated question of its time. All in all, the book is an important contribution to the vast number already built around the life of the President. Two glaring inaccuracies were noted which should be brought to the attention of the reader: Page 50 contains a statement to In an easy, sincere style, the author tells of his entire experience with the Roosevelts—an experience which kept him in touch with almost every move of the great President's life, personal as well as official, during the time he was with him. But the two chapters which will hold the greatest amount of interest for the Negro reader of the book are those on the Booker T. Washington incident and the Brownsville shooting affair. It will be remembered that Mr. Roosevelt, when President, invited Dr. Washington to dinner and, of course, the educator accepted the invitation, as is customary in such cases—an invitation from the President having almost the same force as a command. This set the entire country, and especially the South, to talking and criticising the action, but Roosevelt managed to live it down. Later Amos says Mr. Roosevelt asked him what he thought of the incident and he told him that it was "all a mistake"; not that Mr. Roosevelt should have extended the invitation, but that Dr. Washington should have accepted it. Of course, as would be expected, Roosevelt did not agree with his valet. Amos agreed with his chief in the dismissal of the troops in T Δ.N.P.
