All doubt that the Elks' convention might not be held in New York has disappeared, and the possibility that Gratel Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson will call the convention to another city after June 15 is no longer a possibility. Mr. Wilson, it is now quite certain, will issue his last proclamation before the convention shortly and it will no doubt contain the words, "On to New York." New Yorkers may now begin to prepare in earnest to entertain more than (ooooo) visitors during the week of August 22.
This was brought out at the regular meeting of the general convention committee held Saturday night at Imperial Home. Dr. Hudson J. Oiter, chairman of the general committee, presided and a full attendance was noted, showing the keen interest being taken in the project by the New Yorkers.
This day was the keynote of the event, but one slight allusion to the previous unsantiness in connection with the right New York be kept the convention been made, seemingly, the silvery and the silvery New York's victory, for no suit in the order of the only convention in the country's greatestHit and Run Driver Fails to Get Away

Daniel T. Teagle was elected grand master. Free and Accepted Masons (Prince Hall), for the State of New York, at the annual communication of the grand lodge held June 3-4 at Mother Zion A. M. E. Church in Westgate street. While his election was unanimous, it nevertheless means the death of the old Masonic machine in this state and brings to an end the reign of Joseph Sullivan of Troy, former grand master, who succeeded to the head of the order following the death of David W. Parker.
Arthur A. Schomburg, for many years grand secretary of the order, refused to make the run again for secretary, and Arthur W. Handy, secretary of Antioch Lodge No. 66, was unanimously elected to be grand secretary of the order.
Harvey Williams was re-elected grand treasurer; Edward T. Sherwood succeeded himself as deputy grand master. Edward Conyers as senior grand warden, and F. F.

Says She Was Brought Here From Kansas City for Immoral Purposes When Accused of Larceny
Charged with white slavery, Dr. A. Porter Davis, prominent physician of Kansas City, Kansas, was arrested here Wednesday by Federal Agent James Amos of the Department of Justice and held in $2,500 bail to appear for trial when wanted. U. S. Asst. Atty. K. F. Simpson will prosecute Dr. Davis.
The accused physician operates a maternity hospital in Kansas City and is an officer of the Health Department there. He was indicted by a Federal Grand Jury about two weeks ago and was arraigned before U. S. Commissioner Francis O'Niell. Dr. Davis is charged with having made a round trip between Kansas City and New York with Miss Mazie Ross, also of Kansas City, in the summer of 1924 for immoral purposes. A bench warrant with a copy of the indictment was sent to Kansas City, but before it could be served on him the doctor fled to New York.

Miss Ross is said to have run away from Kansas City to escape the doctor's cruel treatment. She came to New York. However, before Dr. Davis left Kansas City, he brought a charge of grand larceny against Miss Ross, accusing her of robbing him of $164. She was arrested and placed in Jefferson Market Prison and held without bail. Extradition papers were arranged between the Governors of Kansas and New York, for her return. At her hearing here, her testimony against the physician caused her to be held as a Federal witness in the case against the doctor as a violator of the Mann Act.
Assistant L. S. Attorney Simpson then served on the warden of Jefferson Market Prison a writ of habeas corpus and a hearing was set for June 27. Dr. Davis afterward withdrew his charge against Miss Ross and her release on the larceny charge may be obtained.
Attorney Abraham Grenthal, Assemblyman from the Nineteenth Assembly District, with offices at 36 West 44th street, will defend the accused man.
Execution Put Off;
Victim in Chair
RAIFORD, Fla., June 1.—The emotions sweeping through the soul of a man sitting in the electric chair for ten minutes, waiting for the current to be turned on that would send him to eternity as a penalty for the murder of his wife, remained locked tonight. in the breast of Jim Williams, condemned to death in Putnam County, Fla., last year.
The condemned man recently escaped electrocution by gaining a stay on an insanity plea, but at a hearing later he was adjudged normal and resentenced to die during this week in the chair.
When the time set for the electrocution arrived, no one wanted to press the switch that would burn out Williams' life.
After sitting in the death chair for ten minutes, strapped tightly, awaiting tensely for the death-dealing shock, he was led back to the small death cell, with the announcement by P. S. Blitch, superintendent of the State Prison, that the execution would not be held until Friday afternoon.

James Felton on Way From Danville, Va., to Testify—Is Under Government Protection
ATHENS, Ga., June 6.—Testimony that laborers on the farm of Dr. W. R. King, white, physician farmer of Oglethorpe County, were forced to work without pay, whipped and threatened with jail sentences if they ran away, was introduced by the Government today at the trial of Dr. King on a charge of peonage.
Mrs. Bell Arwood, white, one of the first witnesses, said she and her husband worked some time on Dr. King's farm, but he never mentioned pay to them and threatened to put them in jail if they left. Arwood, her husband, said he once was arrested by a deputy sheriff who charged he owed Dr. King money, but that he never was shown the warrant for his arrest and after starting to work for the (Continued on Page 2.)
TWO ROTHS ON TRIAL CHARGED AS FENCES IN THEFTS
Arrested Some Time Ago When Woman. Arrested for Robbing. Says She Disposed of Loot Through Them
LATE BULLETIN
Herbert Roth pleaded guilty before Judge Donnellan to the charge of criminally receiving stolen goods in the first degree Monday. He offered no defense.
As a result of the son's confession indictments against the father, Joseph Roth, have been dropped. The son will be given until June 22 to adjust his business affairs, and sentence will then be imposed.
Joseph Roth and his son, Herbert, Harlem's leading dawnbrokers, 308 and 500 Lenox avenue, pleaded not guilty before Judge Donnelian in General Sessions Court, Part VI, to a charge of receiving stolen goods from Olive Keene, who is said by the police to have confessed to the theft of jewelry from wealthy Manhattan homes where she was employed as a maid. The case dates back to 1925. The trial is still in progress.
Miss Keene was arrested in Harlem on July 17, 1926, by Sergeant Battle of the Sixteenth Detective Squad and held without bail for the grand jury. She pleaded guilty and is now testifying for the State. The Roths were arrested by Sergeant Battle shortly afterward and two indictments were returned against them by a grand jury in General Sessions on August 12 and 17, 1926.
After hearing the testimony, Judge Allen, in General Sessions, dismissed the indictments in December, 1926, but additional evidence was submitted to the court and two indictments were returned against the Roths again on January 27.
In November, 1925, Miss Keene was employed as a maid, for only 24 hours, in the home of Mrs. Noblett, 131 Riverside Drive, where she confessed stealing five pieces of jewelry valued at about $1,000. She pawned the jewelry at Roth's, she testified, and three pieces of

NEW MAID FIRES ON EMPLOYER FOLLOWING WAGE ROW
Atlantic City Woman in Serious Condition in Hospital - Pulled Trigger While Husband Grappled With Her
ATLANTIC CITY. June Emma Brown, 22, domestic, of 808 Lexington avenue, fired an undetermined number of bullets into the back of her employer, Mrs. Gortrade Baker, white, of 822 Atlantic avenue Thursday night in the kitchen of the Baker home. Hospital and thorities have reported that Mrs. Baker's condition is critical.
Miss Brown, who had been recently engaged by Mrs. Baker, did not appear for work Thursday morning, but walked suddenly into the kitchen where Mrs. Baker was cooking the evening meal that evening. An argument in regards to wages ensued and the girl is said to have whipped out a 32 calorie revolver and pointing it at her employer shouted, "I'm sick."
Just then Benjamin Baker, the husband, rushed at the maid and grabbed her wrist. She fired while he grappled with her and Mrs. Baker sank to the floor. The maid broke away from the man and

SECTION ONE
According to Eryson, the shooting occurred when he accidentally brushed against the hand of Michael Cappola, white, 25, a chauffeur. 22 East Tenth street, who was sitting at a nearby table with Dorothy Lavelle, 25, white, 22 West Fiftieth street, who is said to be an actress and entertainer. This sets at rest the rumor that the shooting was accidental, for Bryson declares that, without provocation, Cappola whipped out his gun and fired twice.
The sound of the shots attracted the attention of Policeman Webber of the West 135th street station, who rushed into the cabaret and saw Bryson lying on the floor, Standing near him were the white couple. The injured man accused Cappola of the shooting, and Webber searched him for a weapon, but none was found.
However, Webber observed an object bulging at the actress's waist, with a quick movement, he extracted what proved to be at 32-calibre revolver.
The couple were then taken to the West 135th street station to await a hearing in Heights Court.
When arrrised before Magistrate Well they were both held without bail for a hearing next Tuesday on charges of felonious assault and violation of the Sullivan Law.
The actress had known the chaufour only a week, she told the police, and had gone to "The Nest" for a morning's outing. After the shooting Cappola, expecting the arrival of the police, passed the gun over to her. She concealed it in her waist and, except for Webber's keen observation, their plan might have succeeded.
Police records disclose that Cappola has served time at Sing Sing on a grand larceny charge.

Sensational in In Startling in Economy a "Feel" Like Viole
HERE is another new, charming secret from France-a delightful bath that immediately gives the skin a sensation of having bathed in rich cream.
Merely dissolve two or more handfuls of Linit (the remarkable scientific starch discovery, sold by all grocers) in a half tubful of moderately warm water-bathe as usual, using your favorite soap-step out of the tub-dry off-and then, feel your skin-
The rarest velvet couldn't be softer and the down on the most delicate flower couldn't be smoother!
This soft, satiny "feel" comes from an extremely thin "layer" of Linit-invisible to the eye-left on the skin after the bath. This thin, porous coating of powder is evenly spread not in spots that it may clog the pores-but thinly and evenly distributed over all parts of the body.
And the most astonishing thing about this new Linit Beauty Bath is that the cost is negligible—practically a penny a bath.

France Knew the Secret for Years
VERY IMPORTANT TO YOU!
Violet Petal
Skin is a delicate covering for the body with a sensitivity to irritation that is scarcely realized by most women. Ordinary talcum powders, with hard mineral particles, often irritate the skin and cause undesirable roughness.
But Linit is practically 100% starch from corn-a pure vegetable product, with no mineral properties that may bring irregularities on the skin. Dermatologists and doctors think so highly of starch from corn, that they generally recommend it for the tender skin of young babies.
The outstanding attraction of a Linit Bath is that the results are immediate. You need not wait weeks for some sign of improvement in your skin—simply swish two or more handfuls of Linit around in moderately soft water, bathe, and immediately you sense an entirely different supple softness in your skin.
R LIMIT is sold by all grocers as a high class laundry starch recommended for use as a remarkable beauty bath. may fetched to some women - however, the statements made
THE fact that LINIT is sold by all grocers as a high class laundry starch and is also recommended for use as a remarkable beauty bath, 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.

Federal Judge in Brooklyn Renders Decision Against Gibbon
The trial of the action of admiralty brought by Jonathan Gibson, 21. of Kingston, Jamaica, to recover $100,000 for alleged cruel treatment when he was found as a stowaway on the Princess May, was heard last week, before Federal Judge Grover M. Moskowitz in Brooklyn. A decision was rendered against Gibson. Gibson charged that an officer of the Princess May dragged him from his hiding place and maneupped him to a stanchion, and that the rolling of the ship and the flying of spray over the ship caused him great agony. His feet got wet and the leather of his shoes contracted, causing his feet to swell.
He was later forced to work in the galley and was again mancled to the stunchion, he said. Gangrene set in, causing a portion of each foot to be amputated. He had lain in a hospital on Ellis island for five months. Gibson said.
Dr. William E. Egan, 143 West Ninety-second street, testified that the condition which necessitated the amputations could only have been caused by some physical pressure which constricted the blood vessels. A deposition by Sidney Gunter of Jamaica, one of the three stowaways on the Princess May, substantiated Gibson's story.
The ship's captain, Josef M. Olson, testified that Gibson had been treated humanely, and denied that he had been maneuled to the stanchion. He produced the ship's log to show that the weather on the date in question was clear and that only a small amount of spray came over the side.
At the conclusion of the testimony a decision was rendered by Judge Moscowitz in favor of the Princess May, and Gibson failed to recover damages.
Said to have been suffering from a rheumatic ailment, Agatha Abbott, 24.111 West 143d street was treated by Dr. Robert Arnold, hospital and removed three for further treatment. Friday

CADDIE MASTER
SLAYS YOUNG MAN
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., June 6.—Eugene Harris, 24, caddie at the Highland Park golf course here, was shot and killed Saturday by W. H. Derrick, white caddie master, who said the young man was "caddying out of turn."

Woman Says He Also Accepted $130 for Furniture Never Delivered
Probably facing a life term under the Baumes Laws, if convicted on a charge of forgery, Jack Davis, white, alias Jules Davis and Jack Horn, 34, 448 West 167th street, was arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate Vitale Thursday and held without ball for further hearing Friday. An additional charge of grand larceny has also been brought against Davis, who was apprehended only after an elaborate net set by detectives of the West 123d street station.
Prior to his arrest, Davis was employed by the Stephen J. Hassett auction rooms at 207 West 126th street, near, Seventh avenue, where furniture is the chief commodity sold. Mrs. Mary Jones, 184 West 135th street, charges Davis with accepting $130 from her for the delivery of furniture which she said never came.
The forgery charge grew out of Davis's successful efforts at having Russell Carew, treasurer of the Apollo Theatre, 125th street, near Seventh avenue, to cash a check for $35. Davis obtained a blank check from the Chelsea Bank, 135th street and Seventh avenue, and made the check payable to bearer, forging the name of Nathan Spatz, furniture dealer at 2417 Eighth avenue, the police said.
Fingerprint records have branded Davis as a fourth offender and, if convicted, he may receive a life sentence under the Baumes Laws.

Men Used Teeth on Each Other, They Say
Two men charged that they had been bitten by each other in a hearing of a fight in Harlem Court before Magistrate Stern on Friday. Cyril Meyers, 211 West 148th street, said that Henry Wright, 27, 642 St. Nicholas avenue, bit him over the right eye. Wright showed a cut index finger of his right hand which, he said, Meyers had bitten. Meyers also declared that William Wright, 33, elder brother of the other alloged assailant, struck him over the head with a heavy stick.
The tight took place in a laundry at Sixty-fifth street and First avenue, where all are employed. Meyers said that the two men assaulted him for no reason. They declared that he had furnished the provocation by calling them "cheap." Magistrate Stern dismissed the felonious assault charge.

But the fluttering of untried wings beckons us on and we accept the responsibility of making another effort to write in pillar and stone the ponderous hope of a sincere and loyal Mason. It is our hope that the past may rapidly drift out of memory and a new leaf on the possible future hear the signature of faith, trust and confidence.
"The restoration of these three weighty virtues must be assured of accomplishment before the pendulum of co-operative adherence can swing into an atmosphere of constructive building. Obedience to conscience will greatly help resurrect that eternal spirit of courage, patience and loyalty that must underwrite our undertaking, hopeful of success.
"Our plans for the future must be carefully worked out based on the findings of an exhaustive investigation of condition, circumstance and faternal resources as they now stand.

Therefore, one of his first moves will be a readjustment of the grand lodge with the Prince Hall Temple and Home Association, the organization that has been largely behind the 14th street temple project. Then some plan for a possible completion of at least two stories of the building will be gone into.
Grand Master Teague represents the younger element in Masonry. He was raised in Westchester County, graduating from the Tarrytown High School with honors, and was one of the first of his race to obtain an executive position in one of the stations of the New York Post Office.

Since its organization the Victory Life Insurance Company has loaned more than $233,000 to Negro property owners, only one loan exceeding $15,000, the bulk of the loans being for sums under $5,000. In April of this year the company had close to $5,000,000 of insurance in force in ten States outside of Illinois. The company is developing Negro actuaries and prepared its own valuations and all statements for the years 1925 and 1926 in its own office.
White Men Caused Coffeyville Riots
Charges made by Attorney Elisha Scott, retained by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in May, to the effect that white rapists were responsible for the race riot of March 18 in Coffeyville, Kans., are now admitted in a front-page display story in the Coffeyville Daily Journal of May 30, which says: "Whites—not Negroes—were the bedfellows of Julia Mooney and Margaret Akers, Coffeyville high-school girls, the night of March 17, the black letter night in the city's history, which led up to rioting, mob violence and bloodshed, if prosecutions started by the State are based on justice."
Mr. Scott has undertaken the defense of two men. Anderson and Ford, who are charged with firing into the mob which ran riot in the Negro district. All of the white people arrested in connection with the rioting have been discharged. According to the Coffeyville Daily Journal, Ira Kennedy, white, former automobile salesman, has been arrested charged with rape, and one of the schoolgirl "victims," Julia Mooney, is held, charged with being an accessory to the attack upon her friend, Margaret Akers.
"At least two other white men will be arrested, according to semi-official predictions," reports the Coffeyville Daily Journal. "It is also rumored that persons alleged to have offered to use money in diverting the course of justice will feel the heavy hand of the law." In the course of the riot which followed the assault upon the white girls a number of colored people were brutally assaulted and beaten by the white mob, one at least being left for dead.
Southern Girls Try to Make Trouble
Fail in Attempt to Discriminate at the Boston Senior Girls' Prom
BOSTON. Mass. June 6. Southern white girls, members of the senior class of Practical Arts High School, Winthrop and Greenville streets, Roxbury, were thwarted in their attempt to have seven Negro girls of the class excluded from the senior prom., held in the Beavonsfield Hotel, Brookline, Friday.
The white girls spread the rumor among the student body that the management of the Brookline Hotel would not tolerate the presence of Negroes.
Several days before the dance when the girls applied for tickets they were told all tickets were sold. The girls, sensing the discrimination, appealed to Principal Herbert L. Weaver of the school. He informed them that he had no power to act.
The girls told their parents of the attempt to bar them. George W. Williams, real estate dealer of 32 Braddock Park, father of one of them, headed a group of Negro men, among whom were Attorney Charles Seles, Dr. Pierce and the Rev. B. W. Swain, to protest to Principal Weaver, who, with a sudden change of front, assured the girls they could get all the tickets they wanted.
The hotel management denied that it practiced discrimination.
The Negro girls of the class are: Misses Ala J. Williams, Mildred Grant, Mariette Foggs, Gladys Pitkin, Marie Logan, Arline Callender and Inez Jenkins.
WHITE MAN JAILED:

NICE. the French Riviera. In coming here, I have found that I have made a mistake. I ought to have come to Nice first and then go to Monte Carlo, for as beautiful and as famous as Nice is, it simply is not to be mentioned in the same breath with Monte Carlo and Monaco. Its Casino, walks and gardens are almost nothing in comparison.
And, speaking of Casino, my article on the Casino at The regular players and others, as I said, have their superstitious and their charms. Things go by reverse. It is bad luck to wish a player good luck; you must hope that he will lose. The favorite table is the one at which the most suspicious have occurred; if you like the looks of the man who is standing behind, that is bad luck. Such a one is likely to have the evil eye, but if you don't like him, that is good. If you look up and see the pigeon flying outside, that's bad; but if a bird flies into the room, that's good. The best of luck is to have a lunchback near you, or to rub your hand over his lunch before coming. Gives you a lunch. I suppose.
Players will carry such charms as these: a scarab from an Egyptian tomb, an African god from the Congo, or a Chinese idol. Everything, however trifling, has a significance to the regular gambler. Some would be lost if they did not get their regular seat, and so, when the Casino opens in the morning, there is a mad scramble for seats. Some have been hired to hold these seats for others.
Dream-books, and infallible schemes to win are sold in abundance, and many are the rumors and bits of gossip. For instance, many claim that the crouper has the power to let the ball drop into whichever pocket he likes, and that, if you can stand in with him, you'll win. After the many evenings spent among "numbers" fans in Harlem, with their countless schemes for guessing the right number, I feel quite at home.
Naturally, with all this ready money, criminals and sharpers of the first rank flock here, with the result, that detectives, male and female, abound. The man standing beside you may be an internationally famed crook or detective.
Many are the schemes hatched to beat the bank, and the company that runs the Casino—the Sea-Batning Association—is kept on its its' and its'. Each morning

"Among Friends"
FRIENDSHIP, which is the highest degree of perfection in society, has been so generally abused that little thought has been directed to its true meaning. Excerpts from various master thinkers describe friendship in this manner:
"Blessed are they who have the gift of making friends, for it is one of God's best gifts. It involves many things, but above all, the power of going out of one's self, and appreciating whatever is noble and loving in another. What is the best solitude that comes closest in the human form--your friend, your other self, who leaves you alone, yet chores you--indeed, your friends compliment and complete your solitude and you experience its charm without desolation." "When friends are real, they are not glass-threats or frost-work, but the solidest thing we know." "It is only foolish people who like to test the bonds of friendship by gelling upon them to see how much strain they will stand."
One's attitude toward intimate friends is either a sad revelation or some pleasant reminiscence. To test true friendship is not a simple task. To "have a friend, be one" is not the only effort required, for friendship sometimes responds with pronounced influence, exorbitant demands and adulterated passion and thereby appropriates itself to another for personal gain. Friendship is a romance, an adventure and it is usually the unexpected that happens in the end.
It is vain to hope to make intimate friends of everybody. It is far wiser to develop a few worthy friends who have the same sense of honor and who can easily adapt themselves to conditions of common interest.
in coming here. I have a mistake. I ought to have then go to Monte Carlo, for, as Nice is, it simply is not the breath with Monte Carlo hills and gardens are almost I must finish, as I promised. Monte Carlo, the tables are tested with a spicie level and every distinctive trace on the machines is removed. Once a man won a fortune simply by discovering a spot on one of the cylinders. At another time a man hid himself in the room at night to change the machine. At present the tables on which the machines rest have no legs. Their support is as solid as the trunk of a tree. A least flaw somewhere and the company is likely to lose a fortune.
Now and then an individual wins a fortune, which many insist is even "a plant" by the company for advertising. "The best proof that the majority lose is the fact that the company has been running for about fifty years, and is able to pay out the huge sum, already named, for the concession. Winners get thirty-five times the value of their stake at roulette.
In the last article I told also of an interview I had with a famous Irish writer, whose recent autobiography created a tremendous stir in certain quarters in English society, with considerable repercussion in France and America.
Frank Harris, now 72, was editor of the London Morning Mail at the height of the Victorian era, with its great personages he counted among his intimate acquaintances such men as King Edward VII, Sir Henry Irving, Cardinal Newman, Cecil Rhodes, Ruskin, Erownings, Maupassant, Oscar Wilde, Lord Randolph Churchill. Of the last he tells an incident that I would like to repeat here, but had better not. The book deals in the frankest possible manner with the virtues and shortcomings—sexual and otherwise—of these great men. The book, two volumes, is absolutely forbidden in America, but I wish it were possible for many Negroes to read it, after what has been claimed about the sexual conduct of Negroes by writers as late as Jerome Dowd. The book, in short, shows that white people of the highest rank women as well as men—are
Culture
A LILLARD
There is no place for anger among friends in social life. To give expression to any strong feeling, no matter how justified it may be, is not courteous, because you may be inadvertently treating upon the belief or prejudice of some of your hearts. In public, friends are true friends who can mingle freely with other guests without fear of scorn, ridicule or ignominy on the part of each other. It is indeed repugnant to make one's companion the "goat" of the party, and later offer such an apology as "I knew you wouldn't mind." A friend should always receive primary consideration, and it is the little things that count.
True friends assume the same attitude in the absence of one another as when face to face. To forsake the principles so graciously observed when in the presence of an intimate friend is a sure sign of insincerity. It is entirely discourteous to encourage unpleasant criticism and unrestricted frankness about the friends to whom you have pledged your trust. To defend and protect a friend is a courtesy well worth cultivating.
Too great familiarity with new acquaintances is impolite as well as unwise. It can not fail to seem forced, and even if the friendship is to be close and permanent, a hastily-lad foundation is never the most secure. One should never call a friend by his Christian name until he requests one to do so.
Flattery of the gross, absurd sort eventually proves odious and, is without justification, but a compliment to friends expressed with sincerity should not be ignored by the recipient and should be gracefully acknowledged.
Courtesy, like honesty, is the best policy in all our dealings with our fellowmen, therefore, we cannot afford to neglect to exercise it generously.

Rejice if You Are Not in Love
Mabel L. is worried because she hasn't got a boy friend. She lives in Harlem, but hasn't even anyone for whom she cares. Now that summer is here she feels blue and alone.
Take my advice. Mabel, and give a whopop for joy that you're not in love. "It isn't so grand."
Ask any girl who's "got the old fever" and she'll be more than likely to tell you that the hours of happiness and contentment equalize or compensate for the miserable pangs of adolescence, the rage by pride or lack of it, and the petty quarrels that bring forth sharp words that cut the one we love best.
The girl and the man, too, will tell you that they wished they didn't care so much. You know you can't hurt a person who doesn't care. Put two and two together and consider the poor souls who are in love. Love and reason don't seem to hitch. We are too emotional for our own good. If those of us who are in love would be calm and remember that we're not the whole idea that love isn't any idea and that grandmother and grandfather were just as much in love as we are, maybe more so, we wouldn't be so foolish. Remember, those of you who are blessed by not being in love, that he travels fastest who travels alone. Thank your stars that you're still got your wits about you.

They meet at each other's house and drink and smoke and if men happen in, they dance. They meet at my home, too, and insist on cooking when I get home all I get is a smell of gin and smoke.

Keeping Fit
By E. Elliott Rawlins, M.D.
A VERY large majority of city Negroes are sick. Some are sextile ill and a larger number suffer with chronic ailments. Life expectancy among the Negroes of the big cities is not keeping up with the lengthening span of life among the white population. Negroes are not taking advantage of the many health laws now known to prevent disease. The application of hygienic laws and sanitary methods by most Negroes is not thought of. Emerson's dictum that "the first wealth is health" is never considered.
The Negro's health asset is as low as his economic standard. This need not be so. Because an individual is poor is no reason why he or she cannot practice the laws of health and individual hygiene, especially if that person is living in a city with modern advantages of education and municipal health supervision.

neither better nor worse than Negroes of the lowest type. Perhaps worse, because they have had better opportunities. When Mr. Harris edited Pearson's Monthly in America he used to speak out as frankly on the race question. He, further, had as his assistant business manager a Negro, the present editor of The Amsterdam News, William M. Kelley.
He used also to speak out on the Irish question—a fact which, he says, largely accounts for the present English attitude on his book. In his autobiography he describes a Lord Mayor's banquet, with its alleged gluttonous practices, and tells how the Lord Mayor, Sir Robert Fowler, ate so much and made the atmosphere so odorous that a lady sitting beside Sir Robert was forced to take refuge in the open air. This chapter is a masterpiece in getting back at "the enemy"—an art that is more effective than any of protest.
Mr. Harris was ill, but very kindly received me in his splendid villa on the hill. After talking for more than an hour on Shakespeare—on which he is an authority, as well as of his travels in Africa, China and elsewhere, I asked him what he thought of our American race problem.
Speaking of those who, in America, oppose others because of their complexions, he said: "It is difficult to believe that human beings can be so savage. Such people keep up a tradition of stupidity that might again cost America very dearly. As for me, just as I want flowers around me, so I want the different stories of mankind."
He told me of the single trip he had ever made to the South, and how he shortened it in disgust at the cruelty inflicted on the Negroes, as well to the upholding of lynching by some of the leading white people. The average Southern attitude toward the Negro he described as "pure hypocrisy," and said that those who shouted most about their alleged superiority, in his experience, were those who believed it least. "Why," he said. "If they were lynching white men for attacking colored women there wouldn't be enough one to go around."
Presently he asked, "Why don't you write a book exposing these things?" I replied that a book dealing with the race question as it actually was stood the slightest possible chance of soiling the light of day, unless the author published it and attended to all the other details himself. I said that even the white friends of the Negro, while they wanted the truth, wanted as little of it as possible. I said also, that what the publishers wanted were stories of the salacious and vicious side of Negro life—a side that had been

Negroes congregate in their churches and seldom is a health Sunday observed. If it is, it is only once a year. This is not enough.
The Negro preacher exhorts only of heavenly things, golden streets, and golden slippers. Details of this material world are never gone into. They almost consider these details out of their particular sphere of activity.
Negro politicians do not use their influence and power to force the municipal authorities to give to the Negro communities more and sufficient health education, more municipal visiting nurses, more school physicians and nurses, more social service workers in connection with Harlem Hospital and other municipal clinics. More detail work must be done. The individual must be reached in his home, at his church, in his fraternal organization meetings, and there taught the known methods and laws of health, sanitation and hygiene. In Edgar M. Grey's article, "Defective School Children" in last week's New York Amster-

so thoroughly explored in the last three centuries that any writer, even though partially acquainted with the literature on the subject, would turn for sheet relief to the other side if he had anything approaching an original turn of mind. But this side I said the white public did not want to hear, being contrary to its beliefs.
"But what is the matter with your own publishing firms? Surely they are not afraid to put out books telling the truth?"
I replied that such publishing firms as we had were interested either in religious literature or were aided by white people, who would withdraw their aid. "The fact is," I said, "that today it is as it was some thirty years ago. The people most interested in Negro literature are white people. The masses of the Negro, by which I mean about ninety-five per cent, don't care whether it goes up or down."
Half-rising from his couch he asked, emphatically: "Not interested in literature? Then how do they ever hope to get anywhere. The literature of a people is its very life—the memory of the group. A people with
dam News, we read what Dr. J. B. Nash of New York University has to say relative to the health of the Negro. His words are "the colored child is fundamentally equal to the white child in all natural attributes, but that the colored child suffered from disadvantages of ignorance and carelessness in its home." Dr. Haven Emerson, another authority, in the same article is quoted as saying that "in the Negro communities the system of medical examination was a colossal failure, for the reason that there were thousands of Negro children in these schools for whom there had been no medical records."
This means that many Negro parents do not, care, or do not know about the benefits derived from a medical examination of their children. For the same reason these parents themselves do not have any medical examinations. The health philosophy of the Negro is to wait until he "feeds a misery." He has not been educated to know that when he "feels a misery" is when he has been sick a long time. Then it may be too late for the preservation of life or the producing of a complete cure.
The Negro church, fraternal organizations, the Negro politician, the Negro physician, the Negro press and the Negro insurance companies should immediately organize in some constructive and concerted way to push this program of health education to the Negro masses.
In the City of Chicago a "Negro Health Survey," demanded by the Negro politicians and organized by the Chicago Health Department, is now undertaking to find out the cause and apply the ways and means to decrease the sickness and death rate of the Negroes in Chicago.
This shows leadership and progressive municipal interest, harlem needs such constructive leadership at the present time. The Negroes of New York City are being handicapped by too high a death rate and suffering from the economic loss of too much sickness. Most of their actions are preventable.
The white population has added 15 years in the last 15 years to its expected life span. This has been accomplished chiefly through the known preventives of certain diseases. They are learning and applying the known measure of sickness prevention. The majority of the Negroes on the other hand know nothing of these, and are living a life of excitement, jazz and unhygienic surroundings. A giddy city life without rest, care of individual hygiene. Surely the thread of life must break. Physical defects and faulty habits are ruining a large proportion of our Negroes.
Childhood diseases, tuberculosis, heart disease, rheumatism, cancer, pneumonia, and chronic kidney disease are the ailments to which Negroes are prevalent sufferers. Other lesser evils, yet potent causes of illness among our city Negroes, are excessive alcohol drinking, excessive use of tobacco and coffee, excessive meat eating, neglect of proper exercise, lessened water drinking, the scant use of sunlight and fresh air, a too prevalent night life and an indistiminate sex and family life. These are the fundamental faults that
out a literature is almost like a man without a memory."
Mr. Harris, by the way, was appraised by the American Bookman as "the greatest short story writer living."
We then went on to speak about India, and he mentioned the fact of there being color prejudice against such men as Gandhi and Tagore. Color prejudice, he said, was the rock on which Anglo-Saxon civilization was going to be wrecked. "Why" said he, "a civilization founded on such an insane belief is like a set-of false teeth—no d—dood to anybody."
After he had amused me for more than a half-hour with some of the wittiest stories I had ever heard, I left, feeling that, no matter what others may say, here was really a great man—a man not afraid to tell the truth about life, even when the facts were against him.
In my next I will tell of meeting Claude McKay, one of the leading poets of our group. I shall tell also of the life of the poor on the Riviera for, in spite of the wealth, there are those who seem barely able to scrape through life.
are sucking the vitality of New York Negroes.
Our leaders and teachers of health, morals and public education must get together to change this awful condition. We must be "messengers of a new hope in a new scientific standard of long life" among our people.

You may not be able to get insurance. Many a man has put off until later the taking of a policy and before he could get it was stricken down and died. You may be too busy to talk to an agent, but when the DEATH summons comes, whether you are busy or not, you have to go. Would it not be wise then to stop and get ready NOW? One out of every nine applicants for life insurance is rejected. When you are ready, you may be the one life in nine. Every rejected applicant could have secured insurance if he had applied in time. Don't wait until you are an insurance outcast, and until you hear the tolling of the Death Bell. Do it NOW while you are alive and well.

You should have seen the scouts of Harlem marching down Seventh avenue Sunday morning. There were Troops 766, 768, 774, 776, 773, 771. They escorted the congregation of St. James' Church to the new church at 141st street and St. Nicholas avenue. Deputy Commissioner James Perry had charge of the scouts from Harlem.
Well, scouts, the time will be for the big event that every scout in Manhattan has been wishing for. It is the day for the scouts to spend their time in camp and scouts will pack their troubles in their old kit bags and hitting the trail for camp when the time comes—July 5.

CAMPING TIME
NEARLY HERE.
But wait, the streets will be clear when the scouts from Harlem pack up the bags because many are leaving for camp on August 2. Here's a poem that every scout will remember on his way to camp: Oh, there's something sets me going long about this time each year. A sort of inward itching that's incurable I fear.
When I hear the robins chirping,
when I hear the blackbirds will.
When the crows are all assembled
for a confab on the hill.
When the parridges are drumming when the ducks are in a rumpter
When good old Nature calls to us,
"Wake up, wake up. It's summer."
Then I long to pack my knapsack
up and fasten down the clamp.
Put on my belt a notch or two and
hit the trail for camp.
Troop 774 is challenging Troop
786 in stick ball, Saturday, June
18, at Macombs Dam Park. Troop
774 is also challenging Troop 771
on the following Saturday at the same park. The game starts at 10 o'clock.
The Rev. G. M. Oliver, pastor of Rush Memorial Church, preached a sermon to Troop 775 Sunday morning. There were sixteen scouts present.
Troop 773 played 774 stickball near the Yankee Stadium last Saturday. The game was called in the fifth inning on account of rain. The score was 9-4 in favor of Troop 774.
Pee Wee (Scout C. Marshall) caught two files which would have been home runs.
Troops 773 and 774 will play again next Saturday at 9:30 A.M.
New St. James Presbyterian Church.
Led by the pastor, the congregation of St. James' Presbyterian Church took their formal leave of the old location at 59-61 West 137th street, and marched in a body to the new location at St. Nicholas avenue and 141st street. The Rev. William Lloyd Imes is pastor. The Boy Scouts of Harlem, with brilliant banners and uniforms, were in the procession, and at 133th street and 17th avenue the Virgin Islands Congressional Council Band met the procession a week with fellowship. Onward Christian School" and "Skyview" avenue. The band also rendered a selection during the service in the church auditorium. The St. James' congregation and friends literally overflowed the building, being turned away in spite of the fact that the auditorium will hold over 1,000 persons. The Boy Scouts courteously gave up their seats to help supply room for the crowds.
The pastor preached the children's sermon "What God's House Means," and the general sermon was preached by the Rev. H. G. Mendenhall, stated clerk of New York Presbytery, from the text "Was Had When They Said Until Us Go Into the House of the Lord." The choir of St. James rendered fitting music throughout the day, under leadership of Professor Ojon, director.

The next meeting of the Interstate Chiropractic Association will be held at the Urban League, 102 West 126th street, on Sunday, June 12, at 2 p.m.

AMSTERDAM NEWS EXCLUSIVE FASHIONS
That old say about "there being nothing new under the sun" certainly was not meant for this season's styles. With the multitude of new and lovely fashions shown now, the only difficulty seems to be since one cannot buy everything, to select what one likes best.
Fortunately for our smartly dressed readers, we've included about everything in the way of up-to-date fashions on this page, even showing two pretty little dresses for younger girls (styles 1007 and 1008).
And we do hope you've noticed that although these styles are ever youthful and attractive, the lines are as becoming to the larger woman as to her more slender sister.

Lizzie Shelton is dead in Lexington, Ky.. This woman, in a measure, held an unparalleled distinction. She was the only Negro woman in the world eligible to membership in the Daughters of the American Revolution. But she never joined!
It was Lizzie Shelton's great-grandfather, "Captain Jack" Hart, who came to the western frontier after the Revolution with Nathaniel Hart. He was a bodyguard, and, because he had fought in Indian warfare, he was given the right by the Kentucky Legislature to carry firearms.
Most of Lizzie Shelton's 65 years were spent with the Gibson family in Lexington. Although she never saw fit to affiliate with the "D. A. R.," there lies consolation in the fact that she was eligible—T. E. B.

The New York City Missions, a white organization, placed Mrs. Golend M. Beine, who took courses with them, there as the social worker last November. She is the only salaried Negro employee from this organization doing work on the East Side.
This center is open Wednesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons after school hours. The activities include the following: sewing, cooking, music, drama, swim at "Y." regular gymnastics, art class and a class in English and diction. Church school on Sunday afternoon.
Five teachers will be on the faculty of the vacation school, July 5 to August 5, at the center. The group will go to Towners. N. Y. for camping when the school closes.

Household Hints
Have your knives and fancy cutters dry, clean and floured, if you want to cut pastry sharply and neatly.
Fruit peelings will ruin the enamel in your sink, so do not put peelings there.
A large head of cabbage will serve four persons.
Watch your gas stove and your electric light, and thus save expenses. When you leave a room, shut off the light; do not have high flames flickering around the pots.
Do not wash your muslin curtains in warm water. Make a lather with hot water, and when it is nearly cold wash the curtains. Salt will set the color. If your curtains are green, add a little vinegar to the water; if lilac or pink, a little ammonia.
The Cook Says----
Use cold boiled fish for croquettes.
Does your tomato soup curdle once in a while? A pinch of soda in the milk when making cream of tomato soup is a preventive against this.
Let your cakes get cold before you ice them.

Slump in New York Gives Impetus to Mosquito Players
NEWARK, N. J., June 10.—With tennis in New York at a low ebb due to lack of courts, interest largely centers on the doings of the players across the Hudson. The very active N. J. T. A. is planning a banner season of matches and tournaments. A decidedly unique event is the Class B. Tournament which has been held for four years at Asbury Park. This tournament has always been the scene of brilliant social gatherings, taking advantage of the holidays and week-ends at the seashore. This year the tournament will be held on July 1, 2, 3 and 4 on the courts of the Shore Players T. C., Springwood avenue, near Springdale avenue. Three courts are being prepared with excellent arrangements for the comfort of visitors and a banner entry is expected.
The favorite for this year is Dr. Ernest A. Robinson, popular Abbey Park physician. He headed the second ten in the 1926 New Jersey ratings, and was runner up in both singles and doubles last year.
J. Mercer Burrell, who rates just below Robinson in the New Jersey ratings, and who is No. 27 in the A. T. A. rating for 1926, is expected to give Robinson a battle.
Lawrence Dancy and Dr. Charles E. Domar, winners of the men's doubles in 1926, will enter the singles this year and both are dangerous players and either may possibly upset the dope and win the Class B title.
"Bill" Howard. New Jersey's oldest tennis player, will make his first appearance in this tournament and use his improved backhand. He will wear watching.
E. Harold Hopper. Dr. G. A. Kyle. Dr. J. E. Harris. R. McWilson. R. Blagham. V. Craig. H. Marrow. Dr. J. Parker and M. Gibbs are other well known stars whose entries have been received by the committee in charge. Dr. John Hayes and "Judge" Amos Williamson of Asbury Park are heading committees in charge of entertainment of visitors. Asbury Park citizens have donated a collection of beautiful trophies of the famous N. J. T. A. style and quality for the successful contests. The official tournament dance will be held at Marrow's Hall on Friday, July 1. 1927 at 8:30 P. M.
LINCOLNSBREAK LOSING STREAK
Game Called on Account of Rain in Sixth
Inning
In a game that lasted only six innings because of a rainstorm, the Lincoln Giants broke their long losing streak Sunday and won a 7-4 victory from Hildale before a large crowd at the Catholic Protectory Oval. The Darby Daisies were somewhat handicapped by the absence of Carr. Winters and Washington from the line-up, but had these veterans been present, the visitors likely would have lost anyway, for the local team is hitting the ball again.
Manager John Lloyd led the way, making three hits and scoring three runs in four times at bat and he was followed by George Scales, who made two doubles in three times at bat. Altogether the Lincoln made eleven hits during the game to four by the visitors. Cockrell and Rector were the pitchers.
For the Lincoln Ieft Sunday night for a series of three games in Norfolk and three games in Richmond against the Royal Giants. They will return in time to open their second series against the Cuban Stars at the Protectory Oval on Sunday, June 12.

Local Stars Too Much for Beaneaters at the
Oval
After holding their own against an all-Brooklyn combination at Commercial Oval on the twenty-ninth of May, a traveling cricket team from Boston was decisively defeated by the local West Indian C. C. on Decoration Day before a large crowd of spectators.
In the former game the Brooklynites piled up 161 runs for the loss of seven wickets. R. Alder 55 not out and O. Layne 47, being the chief contributors. The Bostons replied with 51 for three wickets. Dash collecting 27 not out in excellent style.
In the succeeding game the formidable combination of the West Indians amassed a total of 202 runs for the loss of six wickets. Holder 77 not out. B. Clarke 35 and O. Olivierre 33, giving splendid exhibitions of sterling cricket.
Endeavoring to negotiate this massive score, the Bostonians were unable to solve the deliveries of the versatile Holder, who captured six of their cracks for 14 runs. The entire Hub aggregation could only gather 75 runs and were thus short 131 of their opponents' total.
TOUGH DAY FOR WILLS' NEMESIS
Panther Slated to Box Paulino Upsidedown but Rickard's Ag'in It
The Boxing Commission last week gave Humbert Fugazy sanction for a bout between Paulino Uzcudun and Harry Wills at the Grounds on June 23, overruling Tex Rickard's objections to the match. The sanction is conditional on Paulino's reinstatement by the Massachusetts commission.
The board ruled that when Fugazy placed before it the signed contracts of both boxers it had no alternative but to sanction the match. Rickard stated he had a private signed agreement with Paulino for the exclusive rights to the Basque services in New York and New Jersey. The commissioners advised Rickard they could not recognize such an agreement, and that the alleged violation of the agreement by Paulino was a matter for the courts to handle. Rickard left the commission offices without stating whether he would try to block Fugazy's match by court procedure.
Rickard was informed again that Jack Delaney would not be permitted to box heavyweights until he had risked his light heavyweight title against Tommy Loughran, Mike McTigue or Jimmy Slattery, the board giving the light heavyweight champion his choice of those three. The board did not in-

Chappie Johnson's Nine Go Down Before Charge of the Broncos
Santor's Broncos defeated Chappie Johnson's Colored Stars 3 to 1 at Carpenter's Oval, Jamaica. Sunday afternoon. Two games were scheduled, but only eight innings of the first contest were played before rain stopped the two teams for the day.
Dick Williams, on the mound for Johnson's nine, allowed only four hits, but three of these were combined with a base on balls in the first frame and gave the Broncos two runs. The visitors scored their third run in the third frame when an error by Downs allowed Taylor to tally after he had walked and been sent to third by a single.
Chappie's nine made its only run of the game in the fourth, when Downs and Perry doubled successively.
The homesters outfit the Broncos by seven to four, but Watson, twirling for the latter, was invincible in the pinches. The Stars had the lags filled in the sixth with one out, but could not tally. They loaded the hassocks again in the seventh and with two down Perry fanned. The score:

CUBANS TIE BUSHWICK CLAN
CUBANS TIE BUSHWICK CLAN
Record Number of Fans Out at Dexter Park Sunday
The Cuban Stars of Havana, ever a flnx to the Bushwicks, paid their first visit of the season to Dexter Park on Sunday, and before the downpour of rain put an end to the day's proceedings the first game of a scheduled double-header had progressed far enough to give the fans a good line on the competition the two teams can be expected to furnish in their series this season. They battled to a 1 to 1 life, the game being stopped in the tenth inning with a Cuban on second and one out. A crowd of 17,000 fans saw the contest, making a semipro attendance record for the current season. The new stands in left field were filled for the first time and there were only a few vacant seats in the bleachers.
Stanley (Lefty) Baumgartner, former Philly and Athletic hurler, turned in the best performance of his three starts so far for the Bushwicks. The Cubans were held to four hits, one of which came in the tenth inning and therefore does not show in the box score. His control was well-nigh perfect. for he did not issue a single base on balls and he hit one batter. Oscail, who has always puzzled the Bushwicks, gave Baumgartner a stiff argument for the honors. He struck out ten batters, and would have won by a score of 1 to 0 if Eddie Gerner did not have the presence of mind to step into one he liked and slam it over the right field fence.
Gerner, whose hitting has been a feature of the revamped Bushwick's fine work this year, did the trick in the eighth inning. The next three batters to face Oscal were set down in order. Buck Lai got to third base on Crespo's tumble after Baumgartner was called out on strikes, and Patty Smith fled to Baro in the ninth. The fleet footed Chinaman stole second, but Jimmy Irving fanned. The Cubans got their lone run in the seventh. Chacon opened the stretch with a two-bagger. Baumgartner grabbed Fernandez's roller and LeFay's throw to Barnes held Chacon on second. Chacon reached third, however, on Crespo's infield out and he scored when Portuondo singled to right.
Crespo opened the Cubans' tent with a single and he reached second on Portuondo's sacrilege. Oscal was at hat when Umpires Oldis and Adler decided it wasraining too hard to allow further play and after a wait of twenty minutes the game was called off. Oscal registered three of his ten strikeouts in succession, fanning living to the third inning and whiffing Joe Weiss and Garner, the first two batters in the Bushwicks' half of the fourth.
Eppy Barnes, who is leading the Bushwicks in hitting, got one lift in three trips to the plate and continued to hold down first base in fine fashion. He accepted fourteen chances, many of them difficult ones, at the initial sack. The

Beatty of Northeastern Sets New World Mark in Hurdles
SOLDIERS FIELD. CHICAGO. June 4.—Northeastern High School of Detroit won the University of Chicago national interscholastic track and field meet today in competition of 900 athletes from thirty-four States. The Detroiters scored 22 points in a widely split field. Four athletes from the Michigan school did most of the scoring. Fort Collins, Col., was second with 18 3-5 points. Cass Technical School, Detroit, was third with 12 points. Mercersburg, Pa., Academy outdistanced all competitors in the academy section of the meet, scoring 41 points. Newark Prep trailed for second with 28, and Mooseheart was third with 23 points.
Frew stars broke world interscholastic records in the 220-yard low hurdles, javelin throw and pole vault. Few meet records stood the pace of the high school runners in spite of the fact the track was comparatively slow.
Eugene Beauty, a 17-year-old colored youth of Detroit Northeastern High School, run the low hurdle event in 0:24.2 for a new world mark.
Tom Wayne, Kokomo, Ind., High School senior, vaulted over the bar at 12 feet 141.2 inches. Jimmy Demers, who came all the way from Sand Point, Idaho, to compete, hurled the javelin 205 feet 14 inch, bettering the previous best distance by more than five feet.
The flying chony feet of three colored boys, aided by a white companion, carried Northeastern High School of Detroit into the interscholastic track championship.
This quartet, matching speed and
known with 100 other boys from
182 high school in thirty-three
States, won the twenty-third
national interscholastic meet,
held under the auspices of the
University of Chicago on Soldiers Field,
by scoring 23 points.
Eddie Tolan, colored sprinter
from Cass High, Detroit, after
tying the world's interscholastic
record in the winning 100 yard
dash in 199 4-5, came back and
captured the 220 in 0.21 5-10, within
a tenth of a second of tying the
record.

Francis to Lead Tennis Players Invading Plainfield End of Month
NEWARK, N. J., June 10.—The first big event of the 1927 tennis season will be staged at the Plainfield Tennis Club Courts in Plainfield, N. J., on Saturday and Sunday, June 25 and 26. when the second annual Cockburn Trophy matches are held.
The Cockburn Trophy is a sterling silver loving cup donated by Captain Joshua Cockburn, the retired commander of many large ships, who now operates a real estate exchange and steamship agency in New York City. The trophy is a perpetual one, which is competed for annually by teams representing the state associations of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. New York defeated New Jersey in the initial matches played in 1926, and this year New Jersey and Pennsylvania will meet in the challenge round for the right to play New York, the present holder of the cup.
When the Jerseyites face the Quakers on June 25 they will present a strong line-up composed of such stars as Kenneth Worde, No. 5 in the A. T. A. Rating, Butler, McWilson, "Hap" Worde, Willis, Miss Marcellus, Mrs. Thomhill, Mrs. Sadler, Miss Vaughan and young Herman Marrow, No. 5 in the A. T. A. Junior Rating. Pennsylvania will depend on Strange, Ash, Dr. Gordon, Villanova, the Filipino star, Miss Junior, Mrs. Harris and other well known players.
The personnel of the defending New York team has not been definitely announced, but it is a sure thing that Switch, the A. T. A. champion, George Smith, Hughes, Mrs. Leonard, Mrs. Conick and Mrs. Alston will be strong contenders for places in the line-up.
The N. J. T. A. will entertain the visiting teams and a silver mounted plaque will be presented to the winner of the finals. Attorney J. Mercer Burrell of New Jersey is chairman of the Joint Committee for the Cockburn Trophy matches, and E. Harold Hopper will officiate as referee. The New York delegation is head-

BestAmusementPages in Greater New York OPERATORS' UNION CLAIMS BIG VICTORY Negro Aviator Is Making Good in Europe Edited by Romeo L. Dougherty
Negro Union Motion Picture Operators Again at Lafayette at Union Wages
Negro Union Motion Picture Operators Again at Lafayette at Union Wages
Battle Which Was Waged for the Past Nine Months Said to Have Been Settled Out of Court With Operators' Union Claiming Big Victory Over Brecher
The bitter fight which was waged in Harlem, commencing the early part of last September, when war was declared between the Motion Picture Operators' Union and the Leo Brecher interests, the latter including the Lafayette Theatre on Seventh avenue, was settled, we are informed, out of court and to the satisfaction of all parties concerned. Anyway, the Negro operators are back at the Lafayette Theatre, and, we further understand, working at the wages for which they went out. A copy of the official bulletin of Local 306 has been placed in our hands and under the heading of "Local Wins Victory Over Brecher," gives a resume of the fight waged between the union and the interests controlling the Lafayette.
Although Negroes did not respond as it was thought they would when the news went through Harlem like wild fire that a real strike was taking place in our midst and Negro pickets were patrolling the Lafayette Theatre, the affair created a sensation and street speakers were enjoined from lecturing on any phase of the affair on the street corners. One Negro was arrested but the light continued and the pickets kept up the silent vigil in front of the Lafayette for months until recently.
The number of our own. That we were not entirely wrong in so doing is easily seen in the return of the Negro operators to the Lafayette Theatre when a settlement was reached. "We are simply asking for a wage scale the like of which exists wherever our union men work," said the officials of the union to us. "and those Negroes will picket that Lafayette Theatre until the cows come as long as no infunction exists to deny us that right. These Negroes are严和
The Amsterdam News, being a paper published in the interest of Negroes, was early in the fight and charged the local with discriminating against their Negro operators. The union went out of its way to prove that such was not the case and from the Negroes themselves word was brought to us that our lords were being given as much consideration as any of the other members of the union. Under these conditions it was no more than right that we should take up the outgings in behalf of a

number of our own. That we were not entirely wrong in so doing is easily seen in the return of the Negro operators to the Lafayette Theatre when a settlement was reached. "We are simply asking for a wage scale the like of which exists wherever our union men work," said the officials of the union to us, "and those Negroes will picket that Lafayette Theatre until the cows come as long as no infunction exists to deny us that right. These Negroes are part and parcel of our organization and they will be taken care of."
Of course, there were other angles to the case in that other houses controlled by the Brecher interests were included in this light, but in this community it is natural that most of us would be more concerned with the Negro phase of the affair. Below we reproduce the full account which appeared in the Official Bulletin of the Union. In reproducing the article we do so without any prejudice and simply because so much was said of the battle when it first started. Says the Bulletin:
Local 208 has won a complete victory at Exhibitor Lee Brecher, this night, in a tough case which since September 1925 has drifted from court to institution chambers and back again. It was finally settled on the court of the Judge General. The next go back to work on
"This is a great victory for the American institution. The case ranks with some of the most wise settlements by the American nation in the work of labor in the United States. But some officers felt that nothing should be left unknown to who this case is. Not only because the law has been so broadly applied, but also to show exhibitions that labor was used to limit for the rights and that problem was no myth but a fact." "If he has never prayed that this local society to its members regardless of color or other differences, the hope of the Laffayette, Bretters W. Simms and Charlie Hankerson, have been reinstated." "He began when Mr. Bretters referred to abide by contracts signed for him by a member of his organization, Mr. Schiffman." "The men were taken out of his宿舍 and picking of his arrangements at office—about September 6." "Bretters got out an infunction restraining the local from picketing the Plaza because he had signed union contracts for this house. This house was the home of the picketing because he had broken his promise to sign for the other houses." "He sought to restrain picketing on all his houses but lost. He appealed to President Kapian and Vice-President Charles Eichhorn, with the aid of State Labor Mellator A. J. Portman, who was out of court but Bretters refused." "Through the aid of the International Alliance the Musicians Local NZ were called out of Bretters' wall was issued to the Laffayette."
"The case then went to court on Brother's signed notice. But the case was unsuccessful. Judge Frankkohl, after hearing the Law's side of the case, ordered Brother to make a settlement. The court." Contrasts were then signed in the presence of Vice-President Eichhorn, Brother Fred Gaskell and Frank Kohl. Since the case started Mr. Brecher still or made other arrangements for the settlement, leaving only Flaan and the Lawyer for which contracts were signed.
"Brothers J. Josephowitz and C. Dighter go back to the Plaza."
Old-Fashioned Melodrama at the Roosevelt Theatre
"Bitter Apples," the Warner Brothers' picture, starring Monte Blue, comes to the Roosevelt Theatre next Saturday for a run of three days. It is an adaptation of Harold McGrath's well-known story and has to do with the vengeance of a son and daughter for the untimely death of their father. Desperate at having lost all in the breaking of the Wyncote Bank, the old man had taken his life. The children vowed to avenge his death, and do so by the vindictive pursuit and persecution of the son of the dead bank president.
The story rushes like a prairie fire, from city to country, from calm seas to stormy, toward an exciting and unexpected climax. "Bitter Apples" is good old-fashioned melodrama, the sort of melodrama that never goes out of date, Harry Heyt directed.
The cast includes, beside Myrna Loy, the leading lady, Paul Ellis, Charles Hill Mailes, Sydney de Grey, Ruby Blaine and Robert Bary.

Samuel V. B. Sauceresetoe, who returned here a few months ago, tells an interesting story of flying over the Rocky Mountains on a 400-mile trip. Leaving the ground on the west coast early in the evening, darkness came upon them after two and a half hours flying and they encountered low-hanging clouds. They were forced to fly through them to avoid collision with the mountain peaks.
It was in the month of March and the weather at a high altitude was very cold. The dampness collected on the propeller and on the wings of the plane and ice takes began to form, dangerously increasing the weight of the plane. It became necessary to land, and he and his partner for one hour flew around in a circle at an altitude of 6,000 feet, but there was no safe landing place in sight.
The pilots then flew straight ahead for six hours, coming to a very high altitude in the Rockies, but found it easier to pass. Flying in this region is very good in the summer months, the airframe solid, and the rattles do not seriously interfere with visibility. At such times the clouds and fogs hang low and one files sometimes no higher than 200 feet in the flat country, but mounts to 5,000 and 10,000 feet over the mountains.
As the plane sped on they ran into a driving snowstorm, but managed to ride it out after two hard hours. The pilot's hands became numb from the cold, but he managed to warm them occasionally, one at a time, by the exhaust jacket, which ran through the cockpit. The cockpit was not very deep and there was some difficulty in operating the ailerons on the wing tips and in preventing the pulley from freezing.
They finally flew into good weather and they were 6,000 feet up. Only 300 miles to go and the gas was low. After skirting a large town and straightening out again the engine backfired and burst into a mass of flames.
The birdmen stepped quickly over the side of the plane and jumped. Their parachutes worked perfectly and they landed gracefully on a large farm. They went to the barn, laid their tired bodies in the hay, and went fast asleep. This was a few hours before dawn.
A kindly farmer discovered them the next morning and gave them each a hearty meal and took them to the next town. They waited a day for another plane, a De Haviland, and resumed their trip at noon.
"Flying isn't so bad, after all," said the man who has rivalled the birds for nine years. "But, then, you must know what you're about. I have had six light crashes and was injured only on one occasion, when I was laid up for sixteen months."
Saucereseto has gone to Europe, it is said, to do 20,000 miles, and "If I come back safe, I'll tell you about it." One of his stunts will be to soar to a height of about 8,000 feet, stop his engine dead.
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 1927
and dash to the earth in sixty seconds—safely, he means.
On June 25, 1925, Sauzeresetoel claims to have made a trip of 1-142 miles from Moscow to Berlin in eleven hours and forty-two minutes. The trip by train requires fifty-four hours.
From July 26 to September 10, 1925, Sauzeresetoel said he piloted passenger flights between Paris and London, across the English Channel. Le Bourget Field, the airport made famous by Captain Charles Lindbergh, was the take-off place for these Paris-London trips, he said.
According to the filer, passengers pay for their trips by buying coupon books. Each passenger is allowed thirty pounds of baggage free, he said, and a charge is made for all in excess of that amount. Each passenger must pass the custom shed and show their passports before leaving. A Handley-Page plane was flown by him on these trips. Sauzeresetoel said.
Sauzeresetoel also boasts of flying from Belgium to the African Congo in four days.

"The Manhatters" to Introduce New Wrinkles in Intimate Revue
The intimate revue, the artistic and modernistic offshoot of the paternal musical revue, threatens to assume proportions of almost revolutionary intimacy in "The Manhatters," the first offering of the new producing firm of Lawren and More, which opens at the Grove Street Theatre, Greenwich Village, June 20.
Ziegfeld and other Broadway producers have at various times experimented with the project of establishing a spirit of intimacy between management, cast and audience—with varying results. Messrs. Lawren and More, however, believed that this idea could be best worked out in a lesser known theatre, off the brilliant lights of the conventional Ritalto, and in a community of the character of Greenwich Village. They searched for some time and finally selected the Grove Street Theatre as most completely answering their requirements.
The Grove Street Theatre—gons "Little"—is virtually new and is perfectly equipped throughout. The balcony is a flat space, furnished with tables and chairs. Here refreshments will be served during the performance, and there will be dancing between acts. The walls will be unusually decorated and hung with exhibitions of modern artists.
"The Manhatters," which has already been successfully tried before a critical audience, is a best-selling kaleidoscope of the now well-known intimate revue variety. Humor, quite exceptional music and sparkling lyrics are generously distributed throughout, and a number of specialties such as are not customarily seen on Broadway have been included in the program. "The Manhatters" will be a comparatively "late" show, and will be the outstanding amusement feature of the Village during the summer.

Frogs to Frolic Here on June 30
And Promise a Real Old Fashioned Night at Manhattan Casino When
Up at Manhattan Casino, on Thursday night, June 30, the Frogs will frolic and recall "ye olden times" in an effort to bring back one of the most worthy organizations that ever had a start among colored people.
The Frogs are made up of some of the leading men in the theatrical profession, many of them having helped to lay the foundation upon which stands many a successful artist of the present day. Then, too, we, now anybody else for that matter, can think of a field more in need of the kind of an organization which the Frogs represent than our race, and each and every dollar taken into the box office on the above stated night will go towards bringing back something which we all feel should come back.
That the people are in a receptive mood to welcome the Frogs there can be no doubt, and we look to see a repetition of that first night when the good old boys made their first public appeal for support along the lines which will obtain on the night of the thirtieth.
Florence Vidor Comes to the Lincoln Theatre
With what is purported to be her finest screen offering to date, "Afridn to Love," Florence Vidor arrives Thursday at the Lincoln Theatre.
"The Orchid Lady of the Screen," in this, her third Paramount starring vehicle, plays a role different in all respects from anything she has hitherto essayed. Having proved herself a capable comedienne with her recent picture, "The Popular Sin," Miss Vidor again entertains in lighter vein.
"Afridn to Love" concerns itself with a highly humorous love triangle with Miss Vidor as the base, and Clive Brook and Jocelyn Lee as the other two sides.

The subject of Dr. G. M. Oliver's sermon last Sunday morning was "inexusable idleness." The afternoon service was held in commemoration of the Lord's Supter. The sermon was preached by the Rev. G. W. Hunter of Bethel Church. The members and friends gathered at the close of the quarterly conference on Monday night and presented Dr. and Mrs. Oliver with a purse. This was to show their appreciation for the wonderful work that Dr. Oliver has carried on during the seven years he has pasted Rush.

In Memoriam
EDDINGS—In memory of Mrs. Elen
Eddings, 46, who died June
12, 1926.
They needed an angel in Heaven
to watch while others were
at play.
So God told them where one could be found, so they came and took her one day.
She's gone to that "Sweet Land of Sunshine" forever and ever to stay.
They needed an angel in Heaven, so God took our "Mother" away.
Mrs. Leonard Eddings, Mrs. Priscilla Lockett, Mrs. Robbie Eddings and Mrs. LaFrances Young.
JOHNSON--Daniel A. In loving memory of my son, who passed away June 2, 1926.
A year has passed and some may think because we smile our pain of loss is less.
But only those who've lost can tell if they recall the memory of a loved one gone to rest.
Oh, for the touch of a vanished hand and the sound of a voice that is stilled.
Death has left a lonesomeness the world can never fill;
A loving thought, a silent tear, a beautiful memory, dearest dear.
Resting, sleeping.
But know it not;
Happy hours spent
We have not forgot.
Mother, Julia Johnson.
LAMPERT—In loving memory of our dear mother and grandmother, Jane S. Lambert, who passed to the Great Beyond June 6, 1926.
One year ago our mother left us
And our home has seemed so bare.
How our hearts have ached with sorrow
As we passed her vacant chair.
Hope is all that we have left us
As we lift our hearts in prayer.
Knowing that our mother's resting
In a loving Father's care.

LOWERY—In loving memory of my son, Harry Lowery, who died June 6, 1925, aged 14 years. No one knows how much we miss you. No one knows what bitter pain we have suffered since we lost you. Life can never be the same. Mother, Sisters and Brothers.
WHITE—Mary A. In loving constant and devoted memory of my dear sister, who passed away June 9, 1926. One year has passed since you went away. Days of sadness still come to me. But as long as life and memory last. We will always remember thee. Sister, Martha E. Spencer. Nice, Ruth D. Spencer.

Just like Adam and Eve were punished for eating forbidden fruit, so do a vast number of men and women, both young and old, suffer today because they lack strength.
Destination has weakened many so they can no longer withstand the slightest exertion—others were born weak and have never known how to build their bodies so they could take advantage of the many pleasures they seek. There is no excuse for anyone caring for health, and strength—everyone can enjoy life.

House opens July 1 and reserva-excursions to places of interest by

House opens July 1 and reservations are now in order to prevent overcrowding and get the greatest comfort. July cherries, raspberries and the other early fruits will ripen soon in the large and bouncy orchard. A large party of guests have planned to go to the STONE HOUSE before the hay is showed, where quail and rabbit and wookhuck play blade and seek to one's delight—and catch the youth of early surfers—the budding trees—the babbling brooks and the placid calm of silvery lakes are all so inviting in the month of July, it seems a loss for one to miss them. In July the mint beds are full and tender—the elder still is sweet in the keg—nature is all abloom with everything complete.
The suggestion is made to weigh before leaving for vacation and weigh when return and the trees will tell you whether the rest and recreation have done you good.
Radio programs, as well as many other kinds of music, are at your service; outdoor sport, such as quolls, croquet, tennis, baseball, archery, target practice, billiards, hiking, mountain climbing and side

Auto Calls for Him.
I promised, there was a
conference among the men
who was told to the at tled
with Damiana avenue at half
pent.
It all directed and had
siries but a few minutes
in a contained touring car and
two men were in the
seat and two others in the
seat. I recognized one of
the group who
was in the afternoon.
In the back seat and
off. He sat between
the men who had sighted and
at 17:50 street and
attended one of the men
in the blindfold and tied it
to his eyes. They drove for
on smooth pavement
up顷 over a long stretch
LONG HALL. No Windows.
The automobile stopped. It was led out by the two men in uniform not noticed that he was walking on a board floor. When the door was removed he formed a hull in a long, thin, no-floor hall where there was no windows. It was lined with electric ventilated by an electric ventilating system. In 1800 men, most of them men and none in uniform, were used on benches. At the far end was a raised platform on which a table covered with an American flag was on a large American flag in a room and an organ. Franz was escorted to a seat in front row and noticed that an English was on the table.
A few minutes after Franz was handed a hooded and white-robed man wrested from the rear and sent to the organ and started to march onward Christian Soldiers. When he was doing this Winters altered. He wore no robes, but around his neck was a brood, red ribbon to which was attached a big metal Behind Winters came around and robed figures, from whom took their places on the floor and the other six rocked on the walls. The man was burning. The man sang the first stanza. They repeated the stanza. The man may not introduce.
I can also see that some of my men came through the battle without Batchelor. Aside from our Grand Lighthouse, the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan are the most persons in New York City in the Imperator Kelly Cap, McQuillan and Commissioners Warren have given more facts than I could why Protestants should organize in this country."
Winters then declared that during the parade one of the Klan's women was choked by a patrolman, and said: "If that woman were my mother, someone would have to pay for the mark on her chest." Said the patrolman and insisted: "He went on to say that the Klanmen had full permission from the committee in charge to parade. He pointed out that there is no law against the wearing of regalia only against wearing masks.
As the beginning of the parade constituted every Klanman in this visor under his, this visor sometimes then the visors are rolled up on the outside they drop down, and he did not want this to happen. This would mask the individual." Winters then talked on the Klan's attitude towards the Jew, Catholic and the Negro. He said that if a person of Jewish origin ceases the Christian relation in the Klan, he said the Klan does not light the Cholic as an individual.
We do object to the Roman system of Sitting into civile and penal offices here. We only oppose Negro carrying white people into other things we had not present and help the Stry. No Grounds for Arrest. Witness then stared that just before the parade started, he and
one of his aides. Van Over, asked inspector Haarle to arrest them it they were doing anything wrong, he said the inspector did not do because he knew he had no grounds for such an arrest. He went on to say that many persons are suffering from "neutralism." Who is it not with the Klan who is it, Winter's said.
He then said that the Klan is gathering evidence of "brutalism" on the part of the police in the parade, to be presented to the proper authorities. He said that included in the evidence so far secured is a picture showing Van Over being clubbed by the police. Oppose Parochial Schools. Winters expressed the Klan as being against parochial schools and in favor of public schools.
"There is no influence in childhood that will broaden the mind so much as attendance at public schools where all kinds of children meet and mix," he said.
He then took up the question of salent and that to per cent of animals in jail are foreign born and the Klan is backing a bill in the United States Senate requiring the examination and registration of all aliens who enter this country.
"One of the rules of the Klan to which members are bound is the protection of persons against the violence and the prevention of fires by police elements," Winters said.
"When you get into the Klan, you take an oath to stand by law and order. The acts of the police last Monday were not legal, so we did not obey their orders. The Klan will never start trouble in this country, but if trouble is started I believe the Klan is being enough to meet it." Winters then gave his description of a Klanman.
Description of Klanman.
**Description of Kramer:**
"A Kramer man like an elephantz he like an eagle; he uses anything. He has a mouth like a clam; he tells nothing."
Winters declares that the acts of the police on the recent Monday made a million Republican votes in New York City.
"If Gov. Smith tolerates such action as took place Monday he would tolerate similar action at any place in the United States were he President." Winters asserted.
Winters then states that while Van Kramer was in the hospital in recovery from injuries treated at the hands of the police he wrote the story of the pamder under the title:
"Trail of Tragedy."
He said that at present this story is on the presses and juvenile copies in pamphlet form will soon be ready for distribution throughout the United States. Requests for a copy of this pamphlet should be made with the help of Jamilla post office if he ended his talk by saying: "William Jennings Bryan was a Klansman. If the Klan was good enough for him, it is good enough for you and me." When Winters had finished the talk he asked all present to stand. Then he asked all who intended to join the Klan to sit down. He few seconds Pranz was the only person in the hall who was standing. "Felt Nervous" Franz Says. "I surely felt nervous at that particular moment." Pranz said later. Winters then asked Pranz if he would like to be excused.
He was then taken to the rear of the hall and then into an interior room, where the same men who brought him put the blindfold over his eyes and led him out to an automobile. They drove for some time and when the blindfold was removed Franz discovered he was riding through a jungle in the Metropolitan and Jamaica avenues. Richmond Hill told him the meeting was held within the boundary of Queens County. Let him out of the automobile and drove away.

Brooklyn Man Denies Charge
Ladson Smith, 29, of 1552 Fallow street, was held in $10,000 bail Sunday, May 29, for a hearing before Magistrate Gasper Liota in the Gates Avenue Court on a charge of robbery.
According to the police, Smith engaged Benjamin Klein, white, a taxicab driver, to drive him to Jefferson avenue on Saturday night, May 28. When they arrived at 152 Jefferson avenue, Smith inquired about the fare and Klein stated that it was forty cents. Smith went through all of his pockets and apparently was unable to produce the necessary forty cents. He told Klein to wait until he went upstairs to his apartment and he would bring down the money.
After waiting for some time Klein decided to go into the house. Klein alleges that just as he entered the hallway he met Smith, who ordered the taxi cab driver to put his hands up; at the same time, he states. Smith produced a revolver. Klein claims that all of the money he had was taken from him. He left the scene of the robbery and reported it to the police. Detectives went back to the house and there they arrested Smith. He denied any knowledge of the robbery, but was taken to the station house and locked up.

Mother of Mrs. M. C.
Lawton Dies in Brooklyn
Mrs. Milner Taylor, 78, mother of Mrs. M. C. Lawton, president emeritus of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs, died at her home, 529 Herkimer street, Friday, May 27, after a short illness. Funeral services were held from her late home on Monday, May 31.
Mrs. Taylor was a native of Lynchburg, Va., and came from one of the oldest and best known families in that state.
Mrs. Taylor is survived by three daughters, her son-in-law, Dr. W. R. Lawton, pastor emeritus of the Rendall Memorial Church, Manhattan, a number of grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Interment was in the Evergreen Cemetery.
And Now It Will Be the High Cost of Dying
From all indications there is to be an increase in the already high price of dying, for on June 2 all of the local undertakers had to pay a fee of $25 to do business in the city.
In the language of one prominent Brooklyn undertaker and embalmer, the cost "will have to be passed to the customers."
Many undertakers were surprised at the order which they received from the city last week. In which they were given one day in which to pay the fee.
Investigation by our reporter revealed the fact that the City of New York is short of funds for the pension of retired employees of the Health Department and this fee is one of the ways of raising the money. All barber shops, beauty parlors, restaurants and ice cream parlors will also be called upon to pay a fee.
War Veterans in Big Parade
Those Who Fought in Three Wars of the Republic in Line
Veterans of three wars had places of honor in the Memorial Day exercises, at which time all of Brooklyn united in paying tribute to the hero dead of the nation's wars. "Col." Pierre Zeno, commander of the William Lloyd Garrison Post No. 207 of the Grand Army of the Republic, had the position of chief bugler in the division headed by the thin blue line of veterans who were able to muster again in memory of their comrades who fought in the war of '61-65 John S. Clinton, of the Admiral Philip Camp No. 18 of the United Spanish War Veterans, was standard bearer.
John H. Neal, past commander of Admiral Phillip Camp, was honored with a position on the staff of Col. William A. Dawkins, marshal of the third division. The members of the post were headed by their commander, John H. Miller. There was a large delegation of veterans in line. Charles E. Conick, commander of the George P. Davis Post No. 116, had a place on the staff of Marshal Harry R. Reynolds, who headed the fifth division, which was composed of veterans who are members of the Legion. The parade marched south on Bedford avenue from Wynn Circle on Division avenue to St. Marks avenue, to Brooklyn avenue, to Eastern Parkway and through the Memorial Arch in Grand Army Plaza. It started at 9 A. M.
Virginia Sons and Daughters Out to Sermon
The spacious Bethany Baptist Church was filled to capacity on Sunday evening, May 22, with over 1,000 members of the Society of the Sons of Virginia, the Daughters of Virginia and their host of friends, at which time a joint annual sermon was held by the two organizations. The pastor, Dr. K. L. Warren, delivered the sermon. It was very timely and replete with wholesome advice. Short addresses were delivered by N. B. Dodson, president of the Society of the Sons of Virginia, and Miss Corn C. Robinson, president of the Daughters of Virginia. Both spoke of the cause of the forming of the two organizations, and traced their rise to places of importance in the community and becoming two of the largest organizations of their kind in the state. A splendid musical program was furnished by the choir of the church

People Purchasing Property in Queens County Facing Huge Tax Rate
Installment Plan Purchasers of Homes Will Be Hardest Hit When Assessments Are Made for
Thousands of persons in medium circumstances, who have bought small homes in Queens to escape from the congested sections of Brooklyn and Manhattan, face a tax rate that will exceed that of other boroughs by probably 10 points, a study of official documents revealed last week. This situation has been brought about by costly street improvements, made necessary by the unprecedented infux of population. These small property owners, who in all cases bought homes on the installment plan, never expected taxes and assessments would become a burden of such proportions.
The taxes and assessment bills levied on property owners fall into four classes: first, there is the basic tax rate for the upkeep of city government, which amounts this year to $2.66 per every hundred dollars of assessed realty. This amount will probably not be increased for the coming year. Secondly, there is the borough assessment rate, which totalled four points this year and five points last year, which is added to the basic rate for the borough's contribution to local improvements. This item will necessarily be increased during the coming two years and may reach a maximum of ten points.
Local Assessments.
Thirdly, there is the assessment levied on a local area for street and park improvements. This amount will likewise be tremendously increased during the coming year because of the extraordinary number of local improvements in Queens.
Finally, there is the local assessment levied for sewers and similar improvements. The fact that there is a $24,000,900 sewer under way for Jamaica alone, with tremendous new areas lacking adequate sewer facilities, indicates the size of bills for this purpose alone, which will have to be met by the small home owners.
Disregarding the cost of new sewers, which looms like a threatening shadow, but which will not be felt seriously for at least two years, the cost of street and highway developments alone spells dire news for Queens property owners.
List of Improvements-
The following highway improvements are under way, the cost of which will have to be met within two years:
Rockaway Boardwalk . . . 550,221
Liberty avenue . . . 264,549
Northern boulevard . . . 150,483

166,864
220,260
62,700
220,011
445,000
*More than a million.
Generally the estimated cost based on assessed valuation of property to be taken is found to be from one-half to one-third of the amount, which is actually paid by the city when the awards are made.
Faced with the necessity of paying for these large and necessary street improvements, Borough President Connolly has attempted to tighten the burden on the small home owner by placing large portions of the cost of new highways on the entire city.
Mayor Walker and the rest of the city administration have rebelled against this attitude and refuse to have the taxpayers of the Bronx or Staten Island who, perhaps, may never see Queens highways, pay part of the cost of these new streets.
In an effort to have the city determine definitely what policy it shall adopt toward future local improvements in Queens, the Board of Estimate will hold an executive session on Tuesday and formulate a policy to guide the Board probably until the end of the present administration.
The difficulty which Borough President Connolly has to face is the result of the simultaneous development of the largest borough in area in the city, in its various sections, within a few years, while the older borough met the same problems of necessary street and sewer improvements over a long period of years, with the result

that the costs were more evenly
distributed.
Comptroller Berry has attempted to make things easier for both the city and the Queens property owners by facilitating the payment of existing tax and assessment bills, to prevent an intolerable piling up of city bills.
There is no solution except the cessation of highway and sewer improvements for Queens. But, since such a condition is not consistent with the proper growth of that borough, the small property owners will continue to pay for what their descendants will enjoy.
Clergymen Here Honor Brown

Friends Hail Brooklyn Minister as Future Bishop
High tribute was paid to Dr. William Cornelius Brown by a host of prominent clergymen, laymen and others in the various walks of life in Brooklyn, and he was hailed as a future bishop at the seventh annual reception tendered him and his wife at the historic Fleet Street A.

This was commented upon by many who stated that the committee showed rare judgment. The program was one of the best ever given at the church.
Miss Theresa V. Greene of Manhattan, soprano, and Alexander Ginwood, tenor, captivated the vast throng with their splendid singing. W. David Smith, the dramatic reader, also created a very favorable impression with his reading of several difficult numbers.
Other artists who also rendered several pleasing numbers were Mrs. Clara Bannister, soprano, and Charles E. Stokes, bass. The choir of the church sang a number of selections that were of a high order.

Does a "Soft Shoe Sam" in Tracing the Effects of Prohibition During the Past Six Months in the "City of Churches"
(By WALTER LOFTON)
In order to arrive at a just estimate of the social effects of prohibition without prejudice or bias in any direction, the writer set out six months ago to investigate how the thousands of colored toilers and their families in Brooklyn were progressing under the Volstead Act. Also to get first-hand information as to how the "hootleggers" and "speakeasies" work in this city of churches, baby carriages and trolley cars. Business men, ministers, doctors, lawyers, teachers, welfare workers and the police were interviewed relative to the merits and demerits of this piece of legislation by Congress. Months were spent in visiting the industrial plants where colored men are employed. Also the tenement districts, their better class of homes and their social activities were penetrated, in order that the truth about the sociological consequences of the Eighteenth Amendment might be obtained.
In order to arrive at a just estimate of the social effects of prohibition without prejudice or bias in any direction, the writer set out six months ago to investigate how the thousands of colored toilers and their families in Brooklyn were progressing under the Volstead Act. Also to get first-hand information as to how the "bootleggers" and "speakeasies" work in this city of churches, baby carriages and trolley cars, business men, ministers, doctors, lawyers, teachers, welfare workers and the police were interviewed relative to the merits and demerits of this piece of legislation by Congress. Months were spent in visiting the industrial plants where colored men are employed. Also the tenement districts, their better class of homes and their social activities, were penetrated, in order that the truth about the sociological consequences of the Eighteenth Amendment might be obtained.
One thing was self evident, and that was while the prohibition law has made it very hard for the average colored man to secure a good drink at a nominal price. In Brooklyn, it has not prevented him from getting a drink of socially "corn liquor," "rye" or "gin." In almost any street, and in all districts.
Conditions changed as I went from district to district, and among many of the better class of colored people there was a tendency to do dry, but even there one could secure patent beverages if one so desired. In the better class of homes the host or hostess made it a point to endeavor to have the very best grade of "goods" that were obtainable on the market. When questions were asked as to their attitude on the Volstead act, the general answer was that they considered it no great offense to have a little beverage in the home for personal use, for they considered the law an invasion of personal rights. Some would ask the question, "How is it that this so-called white Christian nation can see the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments frugally violated, and at same time call for law enforcement?" Some added to this with the question, "Which is greater, the enforcement of the law relative to personal habits or the enforcement of the law relative to human rights?"
In the poorer sections all kinds of alleged "booze" can be obtained. No one district can be designated, as Brooklyn, from a topographical point of view, has its colored population scattered like the five fingers of the hand. There are "boocteggers" and "speakeasies" without number.
The colored booctegger and speakeasy operator when questioned relative to their unlawful business stated that inasmuch as men and women will drink for various reasons, have drank, and from all indications will continue to drink, prohibition has been a common blessing to them, for it has enabled them to their homes, have larger bank accounts, and even buy automobiles, where herefore the colored brother who drank either to drink his sorrows, for sociability or just for the love of it spent most of his drinking money with the white brother. While this is a decidedly mercenary viewpoint, there may be a measure of truth in this.
In one section the writer posed as a stranger and in a popular manner asked a policeman where he could get a drink; the officer save me the "once-over" and replied, "Oh, any place almost, that is, if you are known or are with a friend." Investigation in this section disclosed a great number of "speaklesses." Colored men and women and Jews and Italians were all competing for the trade of the colored man.
The colored man sold his goods at 20 cents a half-pint. The Jew and the Italian were selling at 50 cents a half-pint. When inquiry was made to several persons why this difference in price, one stranger stated that the colored man made his "born" or "rye" from real mash, while his white competitor generally made his from redlisted alcohol. This they claim was very harmful, while that made by the colored man would do you little harm provided that you drank it moderately.
In one place where there was a five-story apartment house, with two families on a floor, it was stated that one could get a drink on each floor.
A story is told of the removal of one of these tenants, who moved out this week and another lady moved in. One of the former tenant's customers came to the door, gave the necessary number of knocks on the door, and then the password. The new tenant opened the door, and the gentleman with a surprised look exclaimed, "Oh! I made a mistake. I thought M—— was here." The new tenant replied, "It is perfectly alright—I have what you want." The gentleman was invited in and received what he came after, and went on his merry way.
In this district liquor could be obtained in a shoe-repairing place, a tailor-shop, a butcher-shop, a grocery-store, drugstores, and any number of private homes.

Also the tenement dismis- and their social activities, the truth about the sociologi- genth Amendment might be and women, social workers and others, seemed divided on the effects of prohibition. "What do you think of prohibition?" I asked a woman welfare worker.
"They say it's very bad." was her quick reply.
Then she went on to tell how she had made investigations and found conditions in some cases worse than in the days of prohibition. She voiced a hope, however, that as time goes on changes will be noticed where prohibition has done real good, for in her opinion it was one of the best pieces of social and moral legislations since the Emancipation and the enactment of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments.
A number of colored business men stated that while they were opposed to the return of the saloon, which to a large degree was the hotbed of crime and disorder and a source of family quarrels, they preferred a system similar that of Canada, where one could get what beverages they wanted through the government, and any one else found selling these beverages or making it unlawfully being held to strict accountability.
One unusual thing that the writer noticed was the drinking by a greater number of women, boys and girls.
The writer can recall, when he was a boy, that it was a very rare sight to see a woman drink anything stronger than beer, and a boy or girl of high school age who drank was a social outcast.
Now that it is against the law, and so much has been written and spoken on the subject, and every other family has a still or a "private bottle of "corn or wine" for their friends even though they themselves do not drink. It seems just the thing for women, boys and girls to do this.
Among some of the women it seems that since selling Honor in homes has become the fashion of girls in order to increase their income and are forced to drink in order to keep their trade. The boys and girls seem to do it in a spirit of daring and sport.
The writer asked a young college student what was new in his school; he stated that in his class in chemistry the newest fad was to see who could make the best liquor.
Years ago it was an unusual thing for young men to try to break up a public dance or so-called parlor social because of liquor, but now it is a common sight to see lights started by young men and even young women who are apparently under the influence of strong drink.
The question still rises, "Does prohibition work?" and this six months' survey indicates that it does not work in the city of Brooklyn, as was supposed when the law was imposed, but it does work for the "bootleger" and "speak-easy" operator, and the undertaker. Crime has not lessened and the government is minus the revenue that it might secure under the Canadian system.

Doctors and good pharmacists know that Cod Liver Oil is full of vitamins that make flesh, create appetite, build up the power to resist disease and put good solid flesh on skinny men and women. But its repulsive in taste and smell and nearly every stomach rebels against it.
So now men and women who keep up with the times are taking McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Compound Tablets - rich in flesh producing, health building, strength creating vitamins and as easy to take as candy.
Try them for 20 days if you want to fill out those scrawny hollows in chest, cheeks and neck and gain strength and vigor. And bear this in mind, if they don't help you in that time any drugist anywhere will return your money. But demand McCoy's, 60 tablets, 60 cents.

this award has, undoubtedly, hono-
the most outstanding business gen-
to be found in the Negro race.
Overton is president of three large co-

WE BELIEVE him to be enti-

Good Government
in Gotham
IN 1926 every nine minutes, day
night, a holdup, burglary or some of
form of thievery took place in Great
New York. Approximately every four
minutes of the year, day and night,
police made an arrest. About 60,000
persons in 1926 were thus forcibly
lieved of their worldly goods and
police were able to make about 12,000
arrests. Value of the stolen articles
estimated at about $40,000,000.
THESE FIGURES were culled from
confidential records of 50 large ins-
ance companies. Charges of milk and
food graft running into tens of milli-
of dollars annually are matters of public record.
IN SPITE of this record, however,
find that "New York City is the b

IN 1926 every nine minutes, day and night, a holdup, burglary or some other form of thievery took place in Greater New York. Approximately every forty minutes of the year, day and night, the police made an arrest.

JACKSON, Miss., June 6 (By the Associated Negro Press)—In an appeal to President Coolidge to call an extra session of Congress for the purpose of rehabilitating the flood sufferers of the Mississippi Valley, Atty. S. D. Redmond, delegate-at-large to the last Republican National Convention, wrote, among other things, the following:
"The situation in brief is this: Some several hundred thousand people are now beginning to look forward to their former homes in the flood-ridden areas, only to find in many instances their house even washed away, and all the contents gone. In others, all house furnishings, water-soaked and ruined, and the furnishings, in the way of fabrics, rotten, wholly incapable of being used. Their live stock, in most cases, all drunk.
"Such a situation is had enough, indeed, for the land holders, but what about the poor tenant farmers, but from whom is this so per cent of the sufferers to oblieve."
er, who have lost their all? And these will make up at least 50 per cent of the several hundred thousand flood sufferers, whose entire earthy fortunes consisted mostly of a few household effects; bedding, clothing, probably a few head of cattle, a few hogs, some poultry, and a mule or two.

Inconsistencies
FLORIDA knows how to prevent the lynching of white men, even if it costs lives of other white men, but at the latest provocation it turns colored over to the mob.
LAST WEEK, to prevent the lynching of white man who had confessed to murder of another white man, his and three children, a detachment militia numbering 500 men was call out, and 1,000 special deputies were painted and given "shoot to kill" orders. Four people were killed and a fire or more injured, but the murderer is not lynched.
EVERTHELESS, it is not such a bad thing to see a Southern state prevent a thing, even of a white man, and at expense of other white men. It sees one thing: that a determined man can prevent the lynching of its men, whether they be white or black.
HIS STORY goes back to last March, following the report that two girls out in Coffeyville, Kansas, been raped, a mob formed and rushed on the Negro section of that in search of the alleged culprits. One of the girls had stated were raped men. Needless to say the mob marked scores of innocent Negro men, women, drove them from their homes, and did not cease its depredations until state troops were called out to martial law proclaimed.
NOW DEVELOPS that the girls are not attacked by colored men, but white men. Two arrests have been made, one being that of a married white father of four children, and the other one of the girls supposed to have raped. The latter is being held as accessory before the fact.
LYNCHING is an effective cure for crimes of this nature, and now that the authorities have a real suspect under arrest, why is he not taken out and arrested? And since mobs do not spare women accused of lesser crimes, why not lynch the girl implicated in the crime? They are white. Such law in this country was notigned for them, but for colored peonies as a deterrent to crime of any kind, but to humiliate a struggling race hold it up to scorn.
WHITE man was attacked in Cen-Park early Sunday morning while he was yet dark. Reports have it that assailant was colored. Looks like use of seeing things at night.

call an extra
a 'loan' without a dollar's worth of collateral?
"Is it that this more than a quarter of a million American citizens of the richest nation on the face of the earth must rest solely upon the gold wings of charity?
'If I remember correctly, this country gave to European sufferers just after the war more than one hundred million dollars. Shall we do less in proportion for American citizens?
'If it is not the duty of a government to come to the rescue of its citizens in times like these, when should the Government come to a citizen's rescue?
"My humble idea of government is that it is but a big foster parent, with many children. And when the children harvest a big crop the parent also reaps a great harvest. But when the children meet with disaster and pestilence and misfortune comes upon them, when all is lost, what parent would not unlock its great storehouse of grain and replenish its children?
"What the people need is real substantial, systematic assistance now, extended not by tardy, indifferent charity, but assistance promptly and generously extended by the systematic, methodical, business-like, strong arm of their powerful Government which owes them this sacred duty under the circumstances."

PRESTON NEWS SERVICE
"The Daily Worker" Propagandists
THE pen propagandists of "The Daily Worker," quascommutative organ of J. Louis Kingdahl, William F. Dunne and Bert Miller, are wide awake, as usual. Some months ago, being tired of affairs of the world, "The Daily Worker" printed a caricature of the Saviour, the most nauseating newspaper display that the country has ever witnessed, and one which was an open insult, to every God-fearing person in America.
When newspaper business becomes dull in the quascommutative world of America, the Daily Worker turns, for fodder, to the Negro, so frequently the "rubber bounce ball," or promoters and propagandists who have ultra-selfish axes to grind and ambitions to "achieve."
In keeping with this practice, the Worker's latest "rush" act, as propagandized in its issue of sentences, sense—relating to the economy of Commerce bogger and the Negro refugees of the flooded Mississippi River district, to whom, says the Worker, the cabinet officer has turned a deaf ear.
As illustrative of the brain poverty which crystallizes the Worker's propaganda, here are a few quoted sentences bearing upon the Negro and the flood situation.
"All government agencies from the Department of the Interior and the Department of Commerce on down deciy and fear the revelations that the relief machinery, under Hoover's direct control, has vigorously repressed any attempt by the Negro peons to escape from their peonage. Many of them had hoped to escape during the confusion of the flood, but the relief machinery was too much for them. Hoover refuses to be bothered by any complaints from the Negroes or any of their friends." The Daily Worker's editors, had they been sincere, might have inadvertently discovered that peonage conditions and other flaunts in the face of law and order, which continue to exist along the Mississippi River, are local perceptions which neither Mr. Hoover nor any one else since the days of Grant and Sherman has been able to subdue. The Daily Worker, had it possessed such a sensitive conscience all along as it now exhibits, should, with its first issue, have begun a campaign to make the solid South abort from its system the evils heaped upon its Negroes.
This has been and is the cause of the debacle of repression, not the advent of Mr. Hoover, for whom we hold no brief, but who, from accurate reports, is nobly performing the tasks to which he was assigned by the President, as an official of the national government. The Worker could do well, after accurately informing itself upon the truths of the day, to concentrate and localize its efforts to bring about a reform in the Southland. This would be much preferable to vilifying Government officials on the one hand, and using the Negro as a smoke screen for vicious propaganda, on the other hand.
Merry (?) Go-Round
A aged colored woman, working at the "Merry-Ground" of an eastern canning factory, otherwise known as the mechanical conveyor which carries the empty cans around, where tired hands fill the cans with food products just prior to capping, recently made the following remark to an inspector who was making observations of conditions of labor.
"See dem blue glasses? Well, I wears 'em because if I don't dem pans goin' roun' and roun' all de time makes me drunk."
Thus, the whirling contrivance on its endless way throughout the long ten-hour day was subjecting the humble nugent matron and her co-workers to a down mind and body for a paltry nine or ten dollars a week. Besides this mechanical depressant of brain, brawn and eyesight, numerous other persecutors of the human frame in the form of poor conditions of labor are daily exacting a heavy toll from the working women of America—and among them the colored woman is the greatest sufferer of all.
If woman is to have an equalized day in politics, in industry, and in everything, to say nothing of her original calling to wifehood and motherhood, then an equalized, yet a greater, protection of her brain and body should be given by the giant industries of America. If they themselves will not beef the warning, then it is for Society itself to turn back the "Merry-Go-Round" trend of a
Walter White Reports That Peonage Conditions Prevail in Flood Area
Tenants' Escape From Refugee Camps Barred by Soldiers — Tuskegee Graduate Tells of Brutal Methods Used
Negroes held in peonage in the Mississippi flood area and prevented from leaving concentration camps without the consent of their landlords, also attempts to charge Negro tenants with the flood relief administered to them, are reported by Walter White, assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who has returned from a tour, including Memphis, Jackson, Vicksburg, New Orleans and other points in the flood area.
Mr. White reports instances of Negroes escaping refugee camps and preferring to go without food, shelter and clothing, rather than be returned to the plantations from which the flood had driven them. Mr. White released the following statement at the offices of the association here, 69th avenue:
"In response to complaints of peonage in the Mississippi flood area, I went to that territory and in my tour visited Memphis, Vicksburg, Jackson, New Orleans and other places in the flooded region. M Memphis I talked with Dr. William R. Redden, chief medical officer for the Red Cross in the flood area. Dr. Redden authorized me to quote him as follows:
wide range of the delta section not overflood, coming to Cleveland with the view and purpose of being permitted to remove families from the camp and place them on their own plantations, was thoroughly discussed and considered with the result that the matter of relocating families or individuals to parties other than to the one with whom they have previously contracted for the year, was placed in hands of N.W. Thomas. Mr. Thomas was instructed by the committee not to release any family or persons from the camp except on written consent of the landlord from whose plantation the laborers came, or on the personal request or authorization of the landlords."
"The Red Cross emphatically disapproves of any attempts to use this disaster by landlords further to enslave Negro tenant farmers and share cropers. Aid is given directly to the individual sufferer. It would be an interesting problem to see that attempts by landlords and others to charge relief against tenants are checked when such relief is given to refugees after they have returned to their homes.
"In many refugee camps, however, Negroes are released only to their landlords and are sent back to the plantation from which they cane. This fact was confirmed to me by General Curtis T. Green, commanding officer at Vicksburg of the Mississippi National Guard troops, who are keeping order in the area covering registration from parts of Sunflower, Yazoo, Warren and Holmes counties and all of Isaguena, Sharkey, Washington and Humphreys Counties. General Green told me that plantation owners come to the camps to pick out their Negroes" and that labor agents are kept from the camps, and permission is permitted to talk to any other host his own Negroes.
"The extent of Negro flood sufferment of Negro flood sufferment to prevent escape from the plantation areas is attested in a dispatch from Virodel, Miss., published in the Vicksburg Evening Post of May 5 in which it is stated:
A meeting of the executive committee of the Citizens' Relief Committee was held jointly with J. C. McMullen, director-in-charge of Red Cross relief work here. The matter of parties, covering a large sector of American industrial life. Colored women who are busy promoting sewing circles and give hundred clubs, as well as the man who are even yet so depend upon them, could well be taken a place at the council table, whose delegates are striving to protect womanhood in industry. If neither the employer nor the State will act, then Congress and the Federal Government may, if asked in the proper way.
Save Fisk and Atlanta
TROUBLED reports of scam
business at Fisk and Atlanta universities continue to find their way northward, and apprehension gathers best forced containment in the educational department of these beacon lights of the South might follow the lack of adequate funds in these two worthy institutions.
If the past, Atlanta and Fisk have not been as fortunate as their industrial contemporaries, Tuskegee and Hampton, in being favored with the vision of gracious educational financiers, such as Mr. Eastman and others, who are sincerely anxious to do something for the struggling Negro youth of the South.
The trained Negro is a necessity in the South. With him in the field of higher education and his brother in the field of agriculture and industry, these is glorious hope that the Negro in the South will be most potent in working out his own destiny, despite his many hardships.
Fisk and Atlanta are as essential as Howard. They fill a geographical need which Howard University cannot begin to fill. Their graduates are illustriously blazing the trail and laying stronger foundations of faith and efficiency for the future. Scholars like DuBois, Proctor, Carver, Haynes, and others of Atlanta and Fisk, and physicians such as Howkins and Bailey of Leonard Medical College, would never have matured had the Little Southern schools not held for them the opportunity for learning which, at the time, they could not seek elsewhere.
LETTERS
wide range of the delta section not overflowed, coming to Cleveland with the view and purpose of being permitted to remove families from the camp and place them on their own plantations, was thoroughly discussed and considered, with the result that the matter of releasing families or individuals to parties other than to the one with whom they have previously contracted for the year, was placed in hands of N. W. Thomas. Mr. Thomas was instructed by the committee not to release any family or persons from the camp except on written consent of the landlord from whose plantation the laborers came, or on the personal request or authorization of the landlords. "In many places, notably Greenville and Stop's Landing, Negroes were conscripted, among them being an insurance agent, and they were kept at work even when it became the house would break. "When the agent knew his insurance agent told me he saw some or fifty Negroes swept away by the waters, presumably to death. He managed to fight his way back to the levee. He is a graduate of Tuskegee, married, with a child, and entirely trustworthy and reputable. He injured his foot in the break of the levee, but was put to work on the levee at Greenville, being allowed to obtain treatment for his injury only when that levee gave way, two days later.
In conclusion I will give one more authorized quotation from Dr. Redden, showing the conditions prevalent in the delta:
"Some of the Negroes did not even know that their own bodies belonged to them. When we sought to vaccinate them they said that it could be done only after their plantation bosses gave their permission. When some of these plantation owners objected we had to tell them: Either you will permit vaccination or we will stop relief.
In my talk with responsible heads of the Red Cross I was impressed with their attitude of fairness and impartiality: but, of course, individual subordinates in doing the work do not always act in accordance with the expressed spirit of the Red Cross. The attention of the central administration is being called to the complaints."
We sound no faltering alarm for Atlanta and Fisk; but we do offer the prayer that for them full finances may be coming forthwith; and that they may continue to grow in the hearts and in the needs of black and white America.
They Didn't Run Away
STATE authorities who are supervising and directing efforts which are being made to curb the ravages of the relentless Mississippi river are gloating over the fact that working, practically unguarded, 600 convicts from the State prison, a large percentage of whom are Negroes, are toiling hereditarily, WITHOUT THOUGHT OF ESCAPE, on the levees to save Louisiana's fertile farmlands from the merciless waters.
This column recalls the time when police patrol wagons in the streets of New Orleans would swoop down upon groups of Negroes, rush them to the police station where, after a perfumery trial, 60 and 60-day sentences were meted out in whirlwind style.
No one decries the application of convict labor to the task of saving lives and property; and no one would rejoice at the escape of prisoners whose conduct has forfeited their right to the enjoyment of honorable society. One does lament the fact, however, that many of the Negro convicts who are now working on the levees have probably been sentenced and are serving time after forcical trials and without the same just and non-discriminatory procedure and treatment which the State laws exact for accused whites. And we hope that, when leniency is extended to these loyal convicts, white and colored, are now driving to save the State's civil and property from further disaster, no racial lines of demotion will be permitted to influence the grinding of parole or pardon. Louisiana, with her enthralling history and beautious fair tales, has much to do to place herself "on the square" with the suffering Negro population. Here is the prayer that she may move forward in justice, rather than backward in injustice.
OUR DAILY PAPERS have just published a list of Communists and other American "reds," which the London police took in a raid on a Russian trading company. And these papers pretend to have "discovered" something in the names and addresses of the American radicals. That is pure propaganda, for every intelligent person in America has known the names of these people for years, knowing that they are Communists and radicals.
Even those of us who are not Communists have long been perfectly familiar with the names, addresses and activities of these "reds." Think of any newspaper "discovering" to us that Lydia Gibson or Robert Minor or Ruthenberg is a Communist! What a joke! These people have never tried to hide their names, their addresses or their political beliefs in America. In fact, Ruthenberg, until he died, was the head of the American Communist Party, and known all over the world.
This is one of the serpentine methods of propaganda to excite the people by making them think that something "turrible" has just been "turned up." Even the English police knew all about these people before the raid was made. It looks to us as if the truth is that London police were looking for something which they failed to find, and are therefore making the best of what they did find.
While they were "discovering," they might have discovered a few really big things: that the Czar was killed, that Lenin is dead, that Trotsky is still alive, that there is a revolutionary civil war in China, and that unopposed British and American guns killed several thousand Chinese women and little children in Nanking.
Some of these things are vastly more important than anything discovered in this raid. Everybody who is intelligent already know that Russia is fighting "antire" propaganda by "red" propaganda all over the world.
BOOK REVIEW
BY MISS EVA A. JESSYE, published by Robbins-Engel, Inc.
New York.
A Review by DR. MELVILLE, CHARLTON
MISS EVA A. JESSYES' book, "My Spirituals," makes
like a music-drama, a triple appeal by means of
literature, pictures and music. The great difference
between Miss Jessye's triple stimuli and the threefold stimuli of opera is that Miss Jessye's arts, literature, pictures
and music, act successively. While using her book one
is looking at a picture or reading the literature or hearing
the music, whereas in the music-drama, literature, pictures
and music are affecting the person synchronously.

Foremost colored organist, has completed sixteen years of service as organist of the Religious School of Union Theological Seminary, the leading white seminary of America. For fifteen years Pr. Charlton simultaneously functioned as organist and musical director of a New York Jewish temple. No other Nero organist ever had the distinction of coincidently holding two such important positions in the Metropolis. His musicianship has been highly commended by the press, critics and educators.
Howard Aluminus Invents
Unique Flag Holder
(Preston News Service)
WASHINGTON, D. C. June 6.
—It was made public a new day ago that the far star holder which has been shown in front of the Howard University Library was invented and patented by Franck Duval Crichton of Lynneburg, Va., a former student at Howard.
This invention is unique in that it has the excellent advantage of automatically releasing and readjusting itself when it becomes wrapped or entangled around the flag pole. The device is said to have attracted considerable attention because of this unique feature.
The literature introducing the spirituals graphically delineates the characteristics of the Negro folk and places related to the songs. The word-painting sympathetically represents the humor and overwhelming sorrow of the characters. The black and white pictures are illustrative of common life.
The simple and pleasing musical arrangements of Miss Jessie are in the spirit of folk music and can be comprehended and easily executed by any lyro. The spiritual, "I'm a Po' Lil" Orphan, is indubitably one of the best harmonically. The song, "When Moses Smote de Water," demonstrates the author's ability to writh smooth counterpoint when she feels it necessary.
The few typographical errors need not cause the performer any unusual worry. All through musical literature they can be found, even in Bach's St. Matthew Passion. Since they are rampant, all performers, singers and players should know at least a element musical theory.
Howard Glee Club's Recital
Those who heard the Howard University Glee Club perform on Tuesday evening at Town Hall under the direction of Roy W. Tibbs were more than well pleased. Well Tibbs has his singers well under control and every number tendered was done with finished artistry.
Dr. Harry T. Durieh, who directed the singers in the latter part of the program in a group of his spirituals, showed that spirituals have a mission other than to make folks hilarious. "Deep River" was done with such feeling that it brought tears to the eyes of the flasters. The Glee Club was at its best in this group.
The audience was not one of quantity, but quality, and the concert was one of the most enjoyable demonstrations of first class chorus work that music lovers have listened to this season.
