His alleged assailants searched his pockets, and failing to find any money, took twenty cents and a notebook. Hellman has a police record in Newark and Los Angeles, as well as in this city.

FINLEY WILSON NAMES CLEVELAND FOR 1927 SESSION; SPLIT IMMINENT and Despair Stalk Near Scene of We AGED COUPLE FOUND IN DYING CONDITION FROM GAS POISONING Old age, sickness and poverty were the cause of what the police believe to be an attempted double suicide, when Mr. and Mrs. James R. Register, aged 90 and 70, respectively, were found unconscious as the result of being overcome by illuminating gas in their small room on the second floor of 215 West 134th street, Sunday afternoon about 3 o'clock. The wife died, but the husband was revived by a pulmotor. In striking contrast to this morbid scene, a beautiful wedding ceremony was being performed at St. Philip's Episcopal Church, directly in front of the death room, and the crowds were given the unique spectacle of seeing death and despair follow closely on the crest of youth and ecstasy. Spartan Italy, in the room adjoining, the Registers' smelled gas, and he notified the landlord, Fred Dickens, at 209 West 134th street. and he, in turn, called the police, Patrolmen Scantelevy, Branch.

Finley Wilson has precipitated a fight between himself and New York Elks that may have far-reaching effects on the order. News of the intended decision of the head of the order reached this city as early as last Monday night, but not until the official proclamation was received did it become definitely known that the step, which the vast majority of Elks throughout the country had thought would not be taken in the final analysis, had actually come to pass. Mr. Wilson's proclamation, just issued, bears out the story which appeared exclusively in The Amsterdam News on April 13, in which this paper gave to the New York Elks the first intimation that they might lose the convention. Further, the prediction made at that time in The Amsterdam News, that if any other city was named for the convention it would cause a split in the order, seems now about to be fulfilled. Was Formerly Director of Lafayette Theatre Orchestra Marie Lucas, 38, 349 Lenox avenue, was admitted to the psychopathic ward of the Bellevue Hospital last Wednesday. Her uncle, Mr. Titelbaum, has the responsibility of her commitment. Miss Lucas was very prominent in Harlem musical circles, and was for years director of the Lafayette orchestra. She can play several instruments of the orchestra, and is an expert arranger of music. Her health has been steadily failing for some time, her friends said. Her strange conduct began recently to attract attention, but many attributed it to her eccentricity. Excessive drinking is said to have culminated in her present condition. Before being admitted to Bellevue, her condition is said to have become violent. Miss Lucas' nearest relative is a brother, Tony Lucas, 101 West 134th street. ON TRIAL IN U. S.

Saturday night at Imperial Home the local convention committee that has been preparing for the big event in Elkdom since the Grand Lodge voted to come to New York last year in Cleveland met. Knowledge that Cleveland would be designated was general then, though not official, and the committee voted to send members from each of the three local lodges—Monarch, Manhattan and Imperial—constituting the New York committee for the Grand Lodge session, to Chicago, Cleveland and Detroit to place their case before the Ellis of those cities. The three lodges have agreed that no attention will be paid to the on-to-Cleveland order and that they would do all that they could to influence as many other lodges throughout the com 1 This Double-Quick Bleach Never Fails!

Monday afternoon, on the Twentieth Century Limited, the following well-known New Yorkers left for Chicago: Joseph (Blondy) Brown, past grand esquire, and Counselor Pope Billings of Monarch Lodge; J. Dalmus Steele of Manhattan Lodge, and Thomas H. Brown of Imperial Lodge. Caspar Holstein of Monarch Lodge is also with the committee. In Chicago, the New Yorkers will present their case to the Illinois State Association and particularly to Chicago's two big lodges, Great Lakes and Fort Dearborn. They will attempt to have the Chicagoans vote to ignore Cleveland and to come to New York. Similar attempts will be made in Cleveland and Detroit. Ultimately, the New York committee intends to send men over the entire country in an attempt to influence lodges to send their delegates here, and to come with their members to New York. A further evidence of a split is seen in the fact that Grand Secretary George E. Butes and Grand Treasurer James T. Carter are definitely pledged to come to New York, both having declared publicly on several occasions that the convention will be held in New York or it will be held nowhere. Whether legal action on the part of the grand exalted ruler will prevent this remains to be seen. The law General Committee, however, has said on several occasions that steps to counteract any such action have already been taken. In addition, the New Yorkers have on record several lodges and state associations that have pledged themselves to come to New York, regardless of any order naming any other city. Thus, when the show-down comes, it remains to be seen just how badly the order will be split. MORAL SUPPORT LACKING. Well-known members of the order say that it is clear the grand exalted ruler is within the law, but morally he is likely to have small support. They point out that in effect Mr. Wilson brands the 29,000 or more members of the improved, Revenolent, Protective Order of Elks of the World in the State of New York as outlaws. The issue issued by the head of Elkdom property rights held in New York State in the name of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. could be confiscated and that the greatest. State in the Union, with the largest number of members, stands outside the pale of lawful members of the Elks. They also point out the lateness of the order transferring the session to Cleveland, and the certain knowledge that no city may now prepare properly to entertain the thousands ordinarily attracted to a convention of the Elks. This, with the tremendous expense that the New York committee has already undergone, following out the mandates of the Grand Lodge as expressed by the delegates in Cleveland last August when it was voted then to come to New York in 1927, strengthens the position of the New York Elks. Councilman Thomas Fleming of Cleveland, who was chairman of the convention committee last year when it met in the Ohio city, said in New York Saturday, before he departed for a European trip, that the entire situation was most unfortunate. He added that neither his lodge, Caryhoga, nor King Tut of Cleveland, wished to entertain the tourney year. DAUGHTER RULER PLEDGED HERE. It is said on excellent authority that Mrs. Ella G. Berry of Chicago, grand daughter ruler of the temples, and her staff are pledged to come to New York for the twenty-fifth and silver jubilee session of the temples. If this holds true, a further split will have been made. Whatever the outcome may be, one thing remains certain, that the grand exalted ruler's order takes York. York will have far-reaching and lasting results to Elkidom that cannot be predicted at this time. Aged Woman Dies of Gas Poisoning Aged Woman Dies of Gas Poisoning (Continued from Page 1.) Webber, and Sergent Prass of the West 125th street station answered the summons. They broke down the door and found the couple lying on the bed unconscious. Nearby both jets on a two-burner gas stove were turned full on. The pulmotor squad from the Consolidated Gas Company and the ambulance from Harlem Hospital were called. The police gave first aid until they arrived. Dr. Kalman arrived and pronounced the woman dead. Assisted by the physician the man was received with the aid of a pulmotor operated by Harry Kerr, white, who worked over the prostrate man for one hour. He was pushed to Harlem Hospital, where his condition is reported improving, although at press time he had not regained consciousness. Blood transfusion may be resorted to in an effort to save his life. The wife's body was taken to the morgue. Although very little is known of the aged couple, it is believed that the woman had lain ill for some time. The sickening squailor in which they lived was mere evidence of their extreme poverty.

Maid Confesses Murder Conspiracy Maid Confesses Murder Conspiracy (Continued from Page 1.1) that the Middlesex County Grand Jury would make an early and complete investigation of the amazing story of murder conspiracy told the authorities by Mamie Todd, for eighteen years employed in the home of George E. Morse, wealthy white farmer of Prospect Plains The maid, according to information given out by the prosecutor, in a confession made to the authorities charged that she conspired with Miss Bessie Morse, 40-year-old daughter of the Prospect Plains farmer, to murder Miss Morse's sister, Mrs. Elmer Dey, Mrs. Dey's husband, and their adopted son, Raymond. Both the maid and the sister were arrested Monday, but Miss Morse was released in bail of $7,000, furnished by her father and other relatives. The maid was still in jail yesterday, awaiting assignment before Judge Fitzpatrick in New Brunswick on a charge of conspiracy to murder. Miss Morse denies the maid's story. At first, according to the Todd woman, Miss Morse wanted her husband, who was $4,000, and put to be worth at least $500,000, murdered in addition to the other threes, but later decided, according to the alleged confession. that the shock of the triple murder would kill him. The Todd woman's story that she had been given $1,200 by Miss Morse to pay those who actually committed the murders brought the statement from Prosecutor Toolan and Chief Detective Ford E. David that $1,200 which the Todd woman paid to two deputy sheriffs who have been masquerading as gunmen is that moment in the possession of the authorities. The final instructions given to the two supposed gunmen by the maid were to lie in ambush on the little gravel road that runs from Stultz. Corners past the Morsen homestead and kill the Deys when they drove past in the family automobile. The date fixed for the triple murder was last Saturday. David said. All of Miss Morris's family declare that the makes story is incredible and the product of her imagination. Morse himself suggested that the thing was a frameup, conceived by the maid as revenge upon Miss Morse for some slight of the past. He pointed out that only recently he had both his daughters and his wife with $10,000 each in order to make them financially independent. His will, he said, divided his property equally between his two daughters, a fact known to them both. The Todd woman came to the Morse home eighteen years ago from the Slighton Farm Protector, an institution for delinquents, near Philadelphia, as well as Miss Morris's mother's interest in social service work. So far as is known the maid never had a quarrel with a member of the family. DRESSING TABLE A Beautiful Suite of Substantial Quality One of the most attractive designs in our latest 1927 models.

In self-defense she picked up a long knife with which to protect herself and Henry rushed against it, the knife plunging through his heart, she said. She hastened to the corner drug store and obtained arsenic and witch hazel with which to treat his wound, so her story goes, but she became frightened and screamed for help. None came.

The floors were dug up and other parts were found concealed in the walls of the room. The head is still missing.

Agents Warner, Dixon, Harvey on Trial in Federal Court (Continued from Page 1.) the prosecution. Another week may be required to complete the testimony. The Government's chief witnesses were the Levy brothers, Bernard (Bud), Max and Charles, whose six Harlem gin mills were raided by the police about 200 times, it is said. Their speakeasy at 114 West 135th street has been raided city times. Bud Levy testified. The Levy brothers and their bartenders have been arrested time after time, but the brothers were never indicted, it was disclosed. Federal Agent Edward McCann white is also on trial, charged with accepting a bribe of $600 from Hud Levy, after he had agreed to "fix the case" for $1,000, the bribe to be divided between Harvey, Warner and Dixon. Arthur brings, a numbers collector for Bae Levy, employed at $75 a week, is also on trial, charged with accepting bribes of from $50 to $75 from the Levy brothers, the money to be given to the Federal agents. According to the testimony, the bribes took place during the years 1924-5-6. The transaction involving the payment of the $50 is known to have occurred on the fifth floor of the Federal Building. The usual prejudices of August Isaac of Texas, Assistant Prohibition Administrator, was responsible for the indictments of the officers it was reported. At the trial, Attorneys Woff, Meidie, Pollock and Hallheimer, counselors for the defense, pointed out that the accused agents' activities were restricted to Brooklyn and that they had no authority to operate in New York City. When questioned on this point, Levy expressly ignorance of this fact. The defense attorneys went further to inform that Bad Levy expected to go on the liquor charges for testimony for the Government Commissioner Hartman, attorney said, dismissed twenty liquor cases against the Government. During one raid the police took 248 bottles of liquor in eight bottles of alcohol, it was disposed of the trial. they also stressed the fact that the Levys may be subject to prosecution for failing to include their income from bootlegging in their income tax spot, thus violating the Income Tax law. With much use the attorneys asked Levy why he sought to protect himself from the Negro agents when he was then to arrest at the hands of two other prohibition agents and oversee New York police. Agent Denny Richman testified that the beating he received at prohibition headquarters at 1 Park avenue consisted of no more than "light slaps on the face." The attorneys branded this as a false gesture on the part of McDonald to impress Briggs with the fact that Richman had been beaten to tell on him. After stating that a glass window had been broken during the fight, Richman was asked if he had been tied to a chair and given a genuine thrashing. He replied, "No." One Agent Smith is reported, the attorneys said, to have assisted in "trapping" the colored agents for the purpose of gaining a promotion. The alleged proposal to "frame" Briggs with dope or a gun was also mentioned. Brad Levy just insisted that his occupation was that of furrier, but GET A VICTORY LIFE POLICY — THEN HOLD ON TO IT The Modern Magic Carpet A VICTORY LIFE Insurance Policy is in truth a MODERN MAGIC CARPET which carries you swiftly to the City of Security, in the State of Thrift, where the beaming rays of the Rising Sun of Happiness bring Health, Contentment and Prosperity.

The Levy brothers' speakeasies were located at 603 and 441 Lenox avenue, 106 West 136th street, 120 and 114 West 135th street, and 223 Sewomh aweane. During the many days by the police upon 124 West Chath street the following barrenders were arrested: Charles Shelton, Harry Thompson, Leo Fisher, William Stevens, Harry Payton, Joseph John, H. T. Harris, George Johnson, Henry Fry (who was fined), Samne (C) Ogdolen, Harry Holle, and one O'Niel. Johnson was fined $100 January 15, 1925, and the rest were discharged by the Commissioners, it was said. Levy is said to have been present during ten of these arrests. Levy himself was arrested February 2; and was said to have been discharged, but U. S. Attorney Lumbard declares the case is still pending. The case was first said to have been dismissed because his direct ownership of 114 West 153th street could not be proven. According to the testimony, only about fifteen convictions were obtained following the fifty raids on No. 114. This place was sold later. Levy testified, with the knowledge that a padlock order stood against it. Levy also testified that in 1824 he tried to get Agent Hyman Kasselle, white, also under indictment, to "fix a case" with Harvey, Warner and Dixon. U. S. Attorney Lumbard seemed to have insufficient material upon which to build a substantial case for the Government. During the examination of Max Levy the defense sought to show that he had signed the false names of Harry Cohen, Max Finkelstein and Joseph Harris to bail bonds for the release of his bartenders, thereby "constructing justice." The brother testified that he had been arrested several times for selling gin, but was signed only once-$25. Charles Levy testified that he had averaged $100 a week from the bootlegging business, that he attended bar, and saw Federal agents make various arrests, and that Harvey, Warner and Dixon had been paid, at different times, from $50 to $75 for "protection." It was he who carried the $600 to court on the morning of the alleged bribery, which is said to have taken place before their arraignment. Other witnesses who testified were Chester P. Mills, Prohibition Administrator; Federal Agents Mitchell C. Klevency and John J. Cronan, Nathan Abrahamson, a Government witness, and Gino Foley who testified he saw one of the agents in Long Branch, N. J.

Abraham James, 42, 1922 Second avenue, was held in $2,500 bail by Magistrate Ewald in Harlem Court on sunday. Gladys Hill and her husband, James, of 1662 Third avenue, appeared in court, their arms swathed in bandages, to press the charges. Two clergymen, both of whom refused to give their names, appeared as character witnesses for James, who could not account for the alleged attack. The ministers will testify at a hearing later this week. The Hills were visiting friends at 1735 Third avenue on June 16, they said. Upon leaving the house, they said that they passed the apartment in which James then lived. He suddenly opened the door, the couple said, and slashed them with the long sword. Mrs. Hill suffered a severe wound in the right arm which required twenty-one stitches. Her husband was badly cut in the left arm and fourteen stitches were taken in the wound. Detective Lane of the East 104th Street Station traced James to his present address. The couple said he ran away after the alleged assault. They told the court that they had never seen or heard of him before. James admitted not knowing the Hills and could offer no explanation for the incident.

Just think:of stepping into a bath like rich cream, using your favorite soap, then stepping out and finding that your skin has a "feel" like the down on a pansy petal. This sounds almost too good to be true—or if true, probably too expensive. BUT IT IS TRUE—the results are immediate and the cost is insignificant. You'd never believe that such an inexpensive beauty bath could produce such instant, enriching results. Merely dissolve two or more handfuls of Linit in the bath bathe in the usual way, step out and dry off—and then feel your Startling in ecology absolutely harm to the tender skin 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 fat-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. Merely ask your grocer for a package of LINIT and follow the above suggestions skin-soft and satiny smooth! This soft satiny "finish" comes from a thin coating of Linit left on the skin which is invisible to the naked eve.

X Linit,when added to the bath produces a creamy "feel" to the water which makes it less irritating in cases of certain skin diseases. Results Are Immediate THE outstanding attraction of a Linit Bath is the fact 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 into your tub, bathe, and immediately you sense an entirely different, supple softness in your skin. Why Linit is perfect for bathing SKIN is like a fine fabric. Fine, gritless preparations should be used that are free from hard mineral particles. Starch from corn, the main ingredient of Linit, is such a preparation harmless and pure, and being a vegetable product it contains no mineral properties to irritate the skin. Dermatologists and doctors regard its purity so highly that they generally recommend it for the tender skin of young babies.

He was arraigned in Heights Court, Wednesday, before Magistrate McQuade, who held him in $500 ball for Special Sessions, charged with violating the Narcotic Act. When the alleged opium den was raided by Detectives Christ and Schumacher, they arrested George Brown, 28, a chauffeur, and Miss Dorothy Walton, 26, both of whom were previously convicted for violation of the Narcotic Act, police records show. A complete opium outfit, including humps and pipes, and a quantity of powder, which Brown is said to have admitted was opium, were found in the apartment. Chafes and two small tables and folding cots were part of the scant furnishings of the apartment, and the air was heavy with the fumes of the dust the detectives said. John Anderson, 52, well known to the police as "Three-Card Monet" was arrested Thursday in the sunway station at Lenox avenue and 125th street by Detective Seumacher, who had been watching him for some time and waiting to "get the goods" on him. Believing that he had "ducked the hope," Anderson had been living in excision at 290 West 142d street. Anderson was held without bail for trial in Special Sessions, when arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in Heights Court Thursday. Brown's police record reveals that he served four months in the Workhouse in 1916, and was fined $50 in 1925, on charges of possessing drugs. Dorothy Walton, in 1923, was sent to the Workhouse for 166 days, convicted of unlawful soliciting; in 1926 she went to the Workhouse for possession of drugs, and in 1927 she was residenced on Blackwell's Island for petty larceny. Anderson's record shows a life of crime, beginning with two felonies in 1901 and 1910. Use of drugs and gambling are included in the string of minor offenses that lead up to his title of "Three-Card Monte."

J., June 20.—Supreme Court Justice Parker last week dismissed a demurrier filed by the Board of Education of Berkeley Township, Ocean County, to a mandamus suit instituted by John F. Raison, whose son, with other children, was segregated. The board was allowed until July 1 to file a valid defense. If this is not done, a peremptory writ will be granted to compel admittance of the boys to classes with white children. Menetime the case has been laid before State Education Commissioner Loran. "Where a child of school age," said the Court, "is excluded from the public schools solely on the ground of color, and it is not a question of the particular school to which he is assigned as a mere matter of convenience, it is not necessary to assert his rights in the first instance through the proceeding provided by the school, but resort may be had at once to mandamus."

Policeman Veriot of the West 133th street station reported the case, and Detective Winterhalter was assigned to make an investigation. which he has a list, and against which he complained a few days ago, still running. "We have proof that in some cases drinking places have been supplied with whiskey shortly after they were raided and their first supply confiscated. We are determined that these places must close for the protection of our people and the general public," said fluntley. "As I said on my first and former call here, much of the patronage of these dives is by white people. It is no good to raid these places without taking some measures to prevent their resuming business as soon as the police leave the scene. I hold affidavits to substantiate my charges against each of the places on my list of places." Asked if he had presented the matter to the prosecutor. Huntley said he had deferred action in that direction, believing that he should first take it up with the head of the police department.

Score Conditions in Mississippi Valley A mass meeting of protest against holding the Negro in the flood district of Mississippi a veritable slave was held at Abyssinian Baptist Church, 138th street and Seventh avenue, Sunday afternoon. The meeting was held under the auspices of the local branch of the American Negro Labor Congress. Attorney William L. Patterson, chairman of the meeting, said in part: "The Constitution of the United States provides that no person can be prevented from going wherever he sees fit. But here we have the State Militia in Mississippi holding Negroes in relief camps against their will. The Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution were passed primarily to give the Negro freedom of thought and action. Now one cent has been expended to enforce these amendments. On the other hand, the Federal oGovernment has spent millions of dollars and called out the navy to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment, which prescribes against giving freedom of thought and action to all citizens." Lovett Fort-Whiteman, leading spirit of the American Negro Labor Congress, came to New York to tell of its aims and objects. It was he who traveled through Russia in 1924 and held a convention of the organization at Chicago in October, 1925. Other speakers on the program were: Cornelius Jackman of the Negro Foreign-Born Citizens Alliance, Inc.; Pat Devine of the international Labor Defense; Roy Lancaster of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters; Abe Harris of the Messenger; Prof. Scott Nearman, author, economist and lecturer, and Richard B. Moore, national organizer, American Negro Labor Congress. Speakers from other organizations were invited.

B. P. O. E. of W. are going along seriously with their plans to entertain the daughter Elks in this city for the twenty-fifth silver jubilee—session of the grand temple in August. The air of uncertainty that has characterized the actions of the male branch of the order seemingly has not affected the women in their plans. At the last meeting of the grand lodge temple committee, of which Mrs. Ethel Frusier is chairman, the committee voted to hold the silver jubilee reception on the night of Thursday, August 25, at the Renaissance Casino. In addition, they are planning a pageant for Wednesday, August 24, commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the female branch of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. It can be reliably stated that Mrs. Ella Berry, daughter ruler of the temples, and her entire staff are making preparations to come to New York and they are not concerned with any other possible convention city.

CLUBWOMEN the world over are doing things. The twentieth session of the Florida Federation of Colored Women's Clubs met June 13 and 14 in Orlando. Representatives from all parts of the State — in the face of the intense heat and the daily downpour of rain — attended the meetings. The State project seems to be centered around getting a home for delinquent girls. New York, with its many temptations, has no greater problem with its delinquents than Florida. The particular and peculiar difference lies in the fact that New York spends freely — and constantly — for the correction and training and care of its youth: Florida lags far behind in regard to some of its delinquents—the brown-faced ones—T.E.B.

SOCIETY Beauty Secrets By Mma Sara Washington Daily bathing of the feet is always very important, not because we are beginning to have hot weather, but for the condition of the feet and the general daintiness of your person. The soles of the feet and the palms of the hands have perspiratory glands in greater number than any other parts of the body and consequently should be washed very often. If your feet perspire excessively, bathe them in warm water with a little burnt alum in the water and dust them with boracic acid powder. A good lotion for tired feet is made of equal parts of witch-hazel and alcohol, but nothing is more restful and soothing than hot water. It may seem strange to write about feet in a beauty column, but it is a known fact that tired and aching feet certainly do register prominently upon one's countenance. When troubled with bad feet it is most natural that one is disagreeable, and disagreeableness is beauty's worst enemy, so don't mar your beauty with troublesome feet. Again, I might say that it is strange, but most people do not know how to rest tired feet. First of all, take off your shoes and stockings, put on thinner hose and slippers, then lie, face down, and place a pillow under the instep of the feet (so there is good physiological reason for the "tired businessman" who puts his feet up on his desk). Massaging or rubbing the feet with a firm upward movement using a little alcohol or vinegar is also restful. 120th street, has just returned to the city from Atlantic City, where he spent a few days on business transactions.

Central Oklahoma City, Okla. Langford Says He Had to Go to Court to Get Money Given Him by Public Langford Says He Had to Go to Court to Get Money Given Him by Public And Rises to Ask the World Just What He Could do With Seventy-five Dollars Parcelled Out to Him by Committee — Raps Muldoon, Who Voted Against Wills Meeting Dempsey When the Sam Langford benefit was staged in this city at the old Commonwealth Sport Club, the Amsterdam News, in co-operation with Alvin Moses, gave freely of its space. Friends for many years, Moses, sporting editor of the New York News, and the writer, sporting editor of the Amsterdam News, exchanged freely the enthusiasm, tinged with the hope that the Langford benefit would be a success. Moses refused to take his seat at the ringside the night of the benefit until the arrival of the sporting editor of the Amsterdam News, and on numberless occasions has shown the warmest and most kindly and sincere friendship for the old "Deem" which is reciprocated in full. We do not remember how much or how little the other papers published in this community for Negroes did in behalf of the benefit, but when the spokesman of the night, thrilled by the gathering at the Commonwealth, got up and praised the white newspapers for what they did, without any mention of the Negro papers in the community, we felt that an injustice had been done, as we knew that we had gone out of our way to help the benefit. TEN Proof of this is contained in a kindly tribute by the same Alvin Moses and in the same New York News to this writer. Then came the New York News, speaking editorially, and hinted that not one of the local papers did anything to help Langford. We had nothing to say at the time, giving space to an article from the pen of our special writer, Mr. Edgar M. Grey. Mr. Grey voled our opinion and the opinion of scores attendant on the bouts staged for the benefit of Langford. We knew that we, like Harry (Wills, had done our share and not having political aspirations, did not feel that it was necessary for us to keep on reminding our readers of the importance of the behalf of Langford was done because we considered it our duty so to do. Certain others tried to hog it. They tried to make the world believe that without them "poor old Tham" could not be taken care of. Like the late Alda Overton Walker used to sing in that's simply "smiled, then smiled some more" and voted these same people aoke. Now along comes the same San Langton in an open letter to the Pittsburgh Courter which proves better than anything we can say that he is far from being pleased with the way things turned out. The man for whom these people were born has long come to the fore and gone on record with one of the most sensational communications that ever found its way into the offices of a newspaper, after such an important event as took place for the almost illud gladiator. In the Pittsburgh Courter of last week Langton has made charges against those closely connected with the benefit which we feel calls for an immediate reply. He told the center dollar a month set aside for him by the committee of the benefit, and also takes a slam at Boxing Commissioner Mildloe, among many other charges.

Phil Edwards, famous South American flier, and a student at New York University, was not suspended from school. Rumor appearing in the New York dailies to the effect that Edwards had been laid off from school are not true. No longer than Sunday this young man established a new world's record, as will be seen in another column of today's Amsterdam News. No later than last week he was given his letter at the university. Investigation has established the fact that Edwards was also given relief from the school for three weeks. He stands high in his studies, and is a favorite at the big New York institution of learning. PHIL EDWARDS BREAKS RECORD GLEN PARK, Yonkers, June 18 —Henry H. Cumming, Jr., wearing the colors of the Newark A.

A. championships here yesterday. But a half-foot separated Cumming and Scholz at the finish. The victory gave the Newark star a surge position on the Metropolitan team that will journey to Lincoln. Neb., for the National A. A. U. track and field championships next month. Beside Cumming's new mark, three other records were shattered. Phi. Edwards, N. Y. U. track- ster, broke the N.Y. U. high mile when he beat Eddie Sturne and George Leesness, the time of 1 minute 55 seconds, 1.25 seconds better than the mark made by Harry Glassing, in 1999. After Willie Ritola had been forced to retire at the end of four miles because of a stitch, Ove Anderson of Finland broke the record in the six-mile race, covering the distance in 31:35, 27:45 seconds faster than the previous mark. The fourth record-breaker was Nat Kanrich, U. of P. field star, who heaved the discs 111 foot 2 inches, as compared in 140 feet 83 inches made by R. G. Walker in 1920. The New York Athletic Club capped the team title again. The Eureka Tennis Club Will Be Resurrected After some years of inactivity the Eureka Tennis Club of this village has been reorganized and now has a strong team of championship calibre and is arranging for matches with other metropolitan clubs.

Among the charter members of the original Eureka Tennis Club who are still competing members today are: Messrs. William Carman, Chaucey Brewster, George H. Beauclair and John H. Meyers. N. Y.

THE REFLECTOR THE organization of a Sports Writer" Association is perhaps at present the most vital need of colored newspapers. Such an association could provide for the most extensive athletic events, also greater preaching for race papers throughout the East, Midwest, and South pages, and secure closer cooperation between promoters and newspapers. recourses, any number of important athletic events have been unattestified factories of recent writers despite the fact that they were destroys of having certain incidents in the past because they were unable themselves to be present in eastern sports writers' association would go far toward remedying this situation. Eastern sports writers' association would go far toward remedying this situation. The greatly improved sports pages. With such an association organized and funded, the association could witness the important sporting events in the eastern territory and in the metrocograph a number of copies and mail one to each member paper. In the metrocograph a number of points in the events or the promoters themselves should be done away with. In the country is appreciative of any effort a school or college might make to these these resections, the various "big games" in which they participate, but in most cases from which they come. There have been, but not intentionally—to favor the sources of our leading colleges has been so written almost to give the impressions of our leading colleges team was the only one playing. An organization such as a sports writers' association would serve to have these covers covered from a neutral angle. Closer contact with activities is the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association with the organization of an collegiate Athletic Association could be afforded with the organization of an athletic paper is handicapped because there is no C. L. A. A. member institution closer to paper sufferers in not being able to give that association the publicity it deserves. To this effect, the class in just that same possession where the C. L. A. A. is concerned. With these handicaps would be largely the benefit, the benefit would be mutual and these handicaps would be larger. Mixed sporting events where Negroes participate could be handled with great accuracy. No longer should a reporter be forced to depend on the white ball or cover or facts to establish a basis for his story. Whereas at present one reads that a reporter does so as to be able to write the accounts of these mixed events as simply as possible, the representative of such an association as I have outlined could and send out original and accurate accounts independent of the dailies. Among the numerous other benefits that such an organization would offer are: (1) More brotherly contact between sports editors and correspondents, (2) the ability to send better press accommodations at the various events, and (3) opportunity for concentrated attack upon inquiries when such attacks are warranted. News of the Battlers LEMUEL SALMON, pretty Walter Weight Simon Pure of the Salem Crescent, who has been piling in a great KO record among the men of his class who do their stuff for medals and the like, scored another in-positive victory at the Riddy-Wood Grove Sporting Club, Brooklyn, last Wednesday evening when he scored a technical knockout over George Nelson of the Trinity Club, the runner-up in the State championships, in the second round of their special three-round engagement. The end came after two minutes and 15 seconds of batting in the second frame, when the referee stopped the proceedings to save Nelson from further punishment. LARRY HOGAN, a 109-pounder of the Salem-Crescent Club, has a close deal to Joe Hamlon, national title holder in that class, in a special book staged by the President Athlete Club of Brooklyn at its first outdoor amateur intercollyard boxing show at the Bay Ridge field last Wednesday night. In a meeting with the Boxer, Hogan winning the first round by a three-point win of boxing. However, the Trinity boxer came into his own in the second, slowed him up to a walk in the final, and Joe breezed home. The latter tried for a knockout in the third and last session, but Larry was a bit wise to his opponent and kept his jaw well guarded. BOB LAWSON, stalemate of Theoheson (Tiger) Flowers, has been matched to box Beaert Wright ten times. The weight is the big fellow from Onahla. Noh, who has been challenging George Godfrey to make him for the box Beaert Wright, wouldn't make much of a match for him, and probably would have to be a big fellow. George, like the rest of the big fellows, believes in doing his out for BUCKS. Bob ought to make Beaert Wright about 25 pounds. The bigger they come, the harder they fall, is Bob's idea of his coming tilt. SAILOR DARDEN, who has been boxing so long that he himself can't remember when he started, took a big fight at Brooklyn in one of the TENES staked at Dexter Park Monday evening, June 13. GOLDIE hit the SATTER in his corner, but couldn't budge him. Darden tried to bring over a hay-maker in the ring, but the only session he had taken the power out of his mitts. Goldie weighed 156, with the left ring in the middle, left the ring with his left eye shut tight it looked as if blasting would be the only way to open it again. HARRY SCOTT, formerly of Jamal, co. L.L., who now resides in Harlem, added another victim to his ready long list by outpointing Al Matern, his East Side rival, at the Ridgewood Grove Sporting Club in Brooklyn last Saturday night. Harry raised havoc in the armories and apparently is on the way to success in the licensed club. He is a junior lightweight. THE Harry Wills-Paolino Uzcudun Battle, under the direction of Humbert J.

The local DUKES recently O. K.d. the match, providing the Basque's suspension in the Down Manhata State was lifted. Tax Blackwell, a few weeks ago, after the DUKES issued their ultimatum, threatened to take the case to court, claiming he had the foreigner signed to a band of contracts, but it seems that Paullin's Board of Strategy was willing, with the aid of Fugazy, and Tex backed out or his threat died a natural death.

The play is strictly a team match. The challenge teams (Pennsylvania and New Jersey) meet on the first day for the right to meet the New Yorkers. The play consists of eleven matches. The winner of a majority matches (the winner of a majority Play will be in all classes—males' women', junior singles, doubles and mixed doubles. As yet the teams have not been definitely selected; but it is felt that the leading players, such as Byre Saitch, national champion; A.

CHICAGO, Ill., June 20—According to announcement reaching the public here, Tiger Flowers, the famous Deacon of Atlanta and former middlowweight champion, and Maxie Rosenbloom of New York City have been matched for a ten-round bout at the White Sox ball park on the night of July 4. Considerable speculation as to the outcome of this bout is being made. It is said that Rosenbloom is expected to put up a strong battle against Flowers. dale out 40. The butterflies were: Oscar and Fernandes for the Cubans and Cockerel and Johnson for Hildale. BACHARACHS VS. BUSHWICKS BACHARACHS VS. BUSHWICKS Farrell a Mystery to White Ball Players Last Sunday If there's anything more depressing than Blue Monday it is Wet Sunday. The Bushwicks, rather than turn away the surprisingly large turnout of faithful at Dexter Park on Sunday, battled their way through one game of a scheduled double-header with the Bacharach Giants, of Atlantic City, champions of the Eastern Mutual Colored League, and all they received for self-paints was a 5 to 3 defeat by the Force. The Bushwicks start ed of impressively and lead to a commanding lead in the first inning, thanks partly to the unsteady southpaw offerings of Luther Farrell. Three hits and three bases on balls in this frame produced all of the Bushwick's three runs. After the first inning Farrell was invincible, his slight hurting greatly encouraging his teammates in their successful uphill fight. The Kandy Kids got only one hit in the next eight innings and four of them managed to reach first base, but with runners on the bases Farrell was a mystery altogether too baffling for the Bushwicks bats. The Kandy Kids succeeded in hitting only two balls past the infield after their opening spree. Not Alone In Stardom. But despite his splendid work Farrell did not stand out alone, for he was given splendid support. Dick Lundy at short had an error on a poor throw, but this misuse was forgotten in the help he gave his southpaw. Lundy figured in two of the three Racharach double plays and had seven pitouts and seven assists. He was particularly brilliant in the fifth inning, when he had three assists. He threw out a runner from a difficult position in deep short and came in fast for a weak bounder that threatened to result in a hit. His other chance of the inning was just an ordinary play. Lundy also figured in the final play of the contest. With Irving on first as the result of a walk, Lundy grabbed Hockenbury's grounder, dashed over to second for a force and then threw out the runner. Stanley Baumgartner, Bushwick southpaw, helped toss away his own game. It was a bad throw by Baumgartner that helped the Bacharachs to their winning tally. The score was tied 3 to 3 when the Bacharachs went to bat in the sixth. Smith, the first batter, singled to right. Marcell bunted, Baumgartner fielded the ball and threw high to Peploski, who covered first. The ball went into right Smith reached third and Marcell and Lewis hit to Lal, and when the third down was weakly to the plate Smith safe. Duncan singled to center and Marcell scored. Although there were two on base and none out, Baumgartner got away without any runs being scored. Farrell forced Duncan and Hubbard and Dallott were retired on strikes. Bacharachs Score In Third. The Bacharachs got their first run in the third on Lewis' double, Farrell's single and Hubbard's fly to Carter. The two Bacharach runs in fifth were earned. Lewis singled to right, and, after Duncan fled to Carter Farrell singled to left. Hubbard was hit, filling the bases. Dallott was the second out on an infidel pop, but Baumgartner could not dispose of White. He singled to right and Lewis and Farrell scored. Lundy filed to center for the third out, and opened the game for the Bushwick with a single to center and Barnes with a backupski-scuffed and Dean double in Barnes scoring. Carter singled, Dean tallying. The Bushwicks did not get another hit until Gerner bounced a single over second in the eighth frame. The score: Edited by Romeo L. Dougherty Alberts Robbed of Decision; Fans Stage Riot SYRACUSE, N.

Miss Baker Did Put One Over And Now Harlem 'Society' Has Been Thrown into an Uproar PARIS, June 20.—The Associated Press brings the information to this country that Josephine Baker of Harlem, whose vivacious version of the Black Bottom won acclaim and fortune here, has become America's first colored Countess. To the aristocracy of Harlem, Josephine will add her Count when she returns from foreign travel. Josephine married Count Peplo to di Albertini, she announced last night, the marriage took place on June 3. Josephine's twenty-first birthday, the dancer said. Perhaps recalling the noblemen who from time to time have been revealed as impostors in the United States, Josephine made sure of her husband's lineage. "He sure is a count." Josephine said in announcing her marriage. "I looked him up in Rome. He's not a great big family there with lots of coats-of-arms and everything." The marriage came as a climax to the spectacular career of the girl, who arrived here two years ago to star in the first colored review produced in Paris. Josephine became the star of the Follies Berges, where her eccentric habit of dispensing with almost all clothing rapidly made her famous among the patrons of that show place. Now, Josephine dances at the Acmelas in the afternoon, at the Follies at night and in her own Montmartre cabaret in the early morning. "Damon and Pythias" at Renaissance Casino July 1 Amateurs to Present Dramatic Play Under Direction of Messrs. Greene and Simmons Up at the Renaissance Casino on the night of July 1 the drama, which long ago heard the call of the better element in the community, will again make a bid for support via the presentation by amateurs. As we look back over those days when dramatic offerings in churches and halls were given because of lack of theatres, we can remember many of those presentations which found ready and hearty response at the hands of those gathered to witness what amateurs had to offer. And even in this day and time when the majority of us have been made "hard boiled" by witnessing the best as offered by the professional stage, we have from time to time found amateur presentations which were worth while. Messrs. J. H. Groone and D. W. Simmons on the above mentioned date will bring an array of amateurs to appear in "Damon and Pythias," and from what we can learn, the people in the play have studied carefully and conscientiously to make this offering one of the season's biggest successes.

Strong Drama at the New Lincoln Theatre New Paramount Production Based on De Mille Play Is "The Telephone Girl" When the destinies of three men, two women, great political parties and a whole state hang on the shoulders of one beautiful young girl there's sure to be plenty of strong drama. And those who see "The Telephone Girl" at the Lincoln Theatre the latter part of this week will get just that—strong drama. Herbert Breon's new Paramount production, based on the William C. De Mille play, "The Woman," relates the saga of Kitty O'Denn, telephone girl in the hotel where Matthew Standish, candidate for Governor, is being dined on election eve. Kitty has her own troubles without becoming involved in politics. Tom Blake, son of "Boss" Jim Blake, is unable to marry her because of his father's opposition. All things would seem to indicate a Standish landslide at the polls and Governor Mark Robinson sees his chances of re-election vanishing in thin air. Suddenly detectives who have investigated Standish's past life tell the "Boss." Robinson's father-in-law, of a certain unsavvy episode which, with some added information, will ruin the Standish reform platform. Van Dyke, owner of a powerful paper, promises the use of his presses if the story be completed in time. What information is missing? How can it possibly affect election results? Why should Kitty become mixed up in these affairs? Mudge Bellany, heroin of "Bertha the Sewing Machine Girl" enacts the title role. Holbrook Blinn, distinguished stage thespian, is "Boss" Jim Blake. Warner Baxter, featured player in "The Great Gatsby" portrays Standish. May Allison, making her return to Famous Players after a number of years, is "the woman." Lawrence Gray, the snappy hat salesman of "Love 'em and Leave 'em," has an interesting role as Blake's son.

EVE JUNE 30th SOVINA TAKES OVER RHONE'S SOVINA TAKES OVER RHONE'S Cabaret, Once Run by Well Known Musician, a Thing of the Past Louis Sovina, the man who had a hand in the building of the Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres, and who has been operating successfully in the community for many years, has taken over the place once occupied by Happy Rhone and run as a cabaret. With the passing of Happy Rhone from the spot. Mr. Sovina has announced that in future the former night resort will be rented out to clubs, societies, theatrical and other companies for rehearsals, etc., and at a most reasonable figure. Sovina is well known here and again we take pleasure in reminding our readers that his coming here to operate theatres catering to Negroes brought a man who readily sympathized with Negro institutions in the community. The newspapers combined in lending their aid to the Sovina activities without stint and up to this day not one line in adverse comment has been written about him. There are many organizations in the community that will find in for former Happy Rhone Cabaret a place to meet their requirements. Mr. Sovina will personally superintend the management of the hall.

Take the heroine of "Matinee Ladies" played so charmingly by May McAvoy, and which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre this week, as a case in point. In this picture Miss McAvoy enacts the role of the cigarette girl in a rendezvous for gay parties. Here is a case where uprightness of character furnishes the strength to make sin repulsive. There is one fine thing about "Matinee Ladies" and that is in picturing all the evils of the dance hall, the road house and the cabaret—with all its tense drama—it holds up honor and virtue as among the most priceless possessions of true womanhood. In representing this picture Warner Brothers have made an important contribution to the screen that is certain to be appreciated by the great mass of movie fans throughout the country. They have surrounded Miss McAvoy with a fine cast and in Malcolm McGregor given the film a leading man whose work is replete with sincerity and charm. Graham Baker adapted the story of "Matinee Ladies" for the screen and in direction it is palpable that Byron Haskins, who had it in charge, was fully competent to handle it with a full understanding of the subject. Great Canine Actor at the Douglas Theatre Rin-Tin-Tin Will Be Seen in Thriller Entitled "Tracked by the Police" "Tracked by the Police," Rin-Tin-Tin's latest starring vehicle for Warner Brothers, directed by Ray Enright, records the courageous fight of a dog hero to save not only one of the greatest reclamation projects in the United States but also his friends engaged in building it.

King, son of the president and secretary to Col. Davis; Mrs. C. A. King, Miss Ellen King, Master C. D. B. King, Jr., and Mrs. M. D. Ketter of Liberia. In addition there were the attaches of the Liberian Legation, Baron Rudolph Leman and Baron Bogarde, and the Baroness Bogarde as well as several leading French officials. The President, dark, tall, a striking figure in a black coat, with col. Davis on his right in a well-fitted military uniform, descended from his automobile at the hour set for the ceremony and walked up to the tomb between the ranks of the bright-colored French Republican Guards. Here, after a short, silent prayer, he laid the wreath, a magnificent one of roses and hyacinths, with the colors of the Liberian Republic, on the tomb under the great arch, while the crowd stood by persuasively with doffed hats. The ceremony, though simple, was a very touching one—this head of the single republic in Africa paying his tribute to the valor of the leading republic on a neighboring continent. At the conclusion of the ceremony the crowd, which had been kept back by the gendarmes, flocked to the President's carriage to get a closer glimpse of him, while photographers levelled their cameras at the party. The Liberian ladies were becomely dressed, in spite of the rain, in styles which, if not Parisian in cut, showed that the ladies of the far republic are not a whit behind the French capital in matters of elegance.

A portion of deaths is even gr and August. such digestive enteritis (inflammation of the肠. ABOUT one-fifth of all the deaths of infants under two years of age are caused by diseases of the stomach and the intestines. Among Negro babies the proportion of deaths is even greater. In the months of July and August, such digestive disorders as diarrhea and enteritis (inflammation of the intestines) are very prevalent. There are many reasons given for these summer digestive diseases. The heat of summer lowers the general resistance of the body to infection within the body, and bacteria develops with astonishing rate without the body in the food of the infant. There is a great deal of water loss from the body through the excessive perspiration of the skin and exhalation of the lungs during the heated months and this lowers tissue resistance and aggravates intestinal and stomach infections.

The bottle-fed baby must This body immunity is low, stomach and intestinal infections are present, decomposed or spilled milk is frequent. These are the conditions which confront the delicate intestinal boulevard of the infant during the summer months. The bottle-fed baby has a hard road to travel during these days. Ninety per cent of the deaths due to diarrheal diseases are in the bottle-fed infant, per cent only in the breast-fed婴儿. It is therefore, of prime importance that a mother give her infant her breast milk during the heated months, rather than run the risk of having an infant sick with infectious diarrhea. in our community the death rate from gastrointestinal diseases among infants is excessively high. Immediate steps must be made to stop this "daughter of the innocents." Tooward such an aim a program of operation should be formulated: 1. Encouragement of breastfeeding. It is best for the child. 2. Education of mothers in infant hygiene. Too many Negro mothers do not know how. 3. More prenatal care. Too many of our Negro babies are born with congenital defects. These babies cannot stand the summer months. 4. Better wages for parents. --- 1 a large crowd of Parisians mphe de l'Etoile here to wit- laying of a wreath on the r by President C. D. B.

Later the Paris representative of The Amsterdam News called on President King for an interview relative to the migration of American Negroes to Liberia.

The community must help those unfortunate babies whose parents are poor and whose mothers are ignorant. 5. Properly planned and supervised artificial feeding for those infants who are not breast-fed. The bottle-fed baby must have proper milk, especially in the summertime. The problem of supply and distribution in a big city such as Harlem is a difficult one with a perishable food like milk. In the summertime germs easily spoil the milk. In the home, after the milk is delivered, complete refrigeration is necessary. The expense of ice and care of the milk in the home is an added difficulty to the poor or ignorant mother. In the summer months the safest course for tenement mothers of the poor or ignorant class is to give their babies sweetened condensed milk. In my experience it is second to woman's milk in digestibility and it is free from the contaminating germs of cow's milk, especially in the hot summer months. The method of mixing this condensed milk for the baby's age and physical powers must be under the direction of a physician. It varies according to age. Good ventilation of the living rooms must be attended to also, and it is necessary that the baby be given plenty of pure water. This relieves the excessive body heat of the child. To those who know how, these rules and suggestions seem exceedingly simple, but they are the pitfalls of many mothers in the proper care and feeding of their babies during the heat of summer.

Negroes were very welcome in Liberia and that business opportunities were unusually good. Nevertheless, he pointed out that any immigration to Liberia would at this time have to be a selective one, just as in the case of white colonists to Canada and Australia. "Liberia," said Col. Davis, "is not in a position to care for dependents. What it needs in the matter of immigration are persons with capital and, most of all, skilled farmers. There are splendid opportunities for persons with from five to six thousand dollars.

The inio of romance has ever surrounded the brow of the explorer. There has always been a fascination for these pioneers who blazed paths into the unknown and discovered new lands or conquered with mechanical contrivances and scientific discoveries the mysteries of nature. The civilized world has had two thrills in the last three weeks. The first came on Saturday. May 21, when the news was flashed across the ocean that Captain Charles A. Lindbergh, traveling alone in a monoplane, had remained in the air 32 hours, traveled 3,600 miles, crossed the ocean at night in the midst of rain, sleet and fog, and landed at Paris, France. The second thrill came on June 6. when the news was broadcast that Clarence D. Chamberlain, accompanied by Charles A. Levine, had remained in the air 44 hours, traveled 3,900 miles, crossed the ocean and landed in Germany. While Chamberlain stayed in the air eleven hours longer and traveled 400 miles longer than Lindbergh before coming to earth, the palms of victory go to Lindbergh because he was the first to make an uninterrupted flight to Europe, with no one for company and advice, and in face of the fact that the daring Nungesser and his companion Coll had been lost sight of the week before. For cool daring and dauntless courage Captain Lindbergh is in a class by himself. Some colored writers deplore the fact that no Negro has scored in the field of aviation. When we recall that a Negro youth would have stronger prejudices THE MOTORCYCLE RACE Photo shows late Bessie Coleman, aviatrix, of Chicago, and remains of the plane in which she and her flying companion lost their lives at Jacksonville, Fla., April 30, 1926, while making a practice flight.

Davis, is that immigrants should be of a type sympathetic to the republic, as persons of the radical, discontented type were likely to embroil the Government with neighboring European Powers, some of whom are anxious, for any pretext, to seize Liberian soil. "That was one of the reasons," he said, "why the Liberian Government had to oust the Garvey movement and prevent the landing of Garvey's officials on Liberian soil.

Let us hope, however, that some Negro youth, inspired by this feat of Lindbergh's, will begin a serious apprenticeship in aeronautics. And let us hope that he will show the same stamina in the face of ridicule and the lack of interest in whatever project he may attempt to put across; and the same modesty in the face of success, if such is his, as did Lindbergh. We all take off our hats to Lindbergh and the host of other adventurers into the unknown; yet we must remember those of dusky skin who have done their bit in the various fields of exploration. Miss Bessie Coleman, a colored girl, learned aviation in France and became the first Negro aviator. She lost her life while doing stunt flying at Jacksonville, Fla. Lieutenant Julian has also made short flights out of New York City many times, with the new Chamberlain as his A provement Association had landed shipping supplies, building materials, and even a temporary residence all ready to be set up for Garvey himself 375 miles down the coast at a spot where such a proceeding was likely to get us into trouble with one of the big European Powers, all of whom watch this sort of thing carefully on their African soil.

Two years ago he announced his intention to fly to Liberia, but his plane was smashed before he got outside the metropolitan area. This week a Middle Western newspaper carried an item telling of a young Negro boy who had motored from Mississippi to Chicago on his way to Cleveland to learn aviation from the ground up. In the older fields of adventure the Negro has ever held a romantic place. The history of American exploration could not be written without mentioning him. The late Professor Alexander Chamberlain in an article on "The Contribution of the Negro to Human Civilization" says: "And in their voyages and travels the Spaniards in the New World had the services of the Negro. The first man to reach the Seven Cities of Cibola and open the Southwest of what is now the United States of America was the Negro Estevancillo (Little Stephen), and the vessel of Captain Arellano (1564-65), the first to make the return voyage across the Pacific from the East Indies to Mexico, was steered by a mulatto pilot." The first ship built in America was said to have been constructed by the slaves of Vasquez de Allon, who tried to establish a Spanish settlement where Jamestown, Va., was afterwards founded. Thirty Negroes accompanied Balboa, and they assisted him in building the first ship on the Pacific Coast. Cortez brought 500 slaves to America to assist him in his expedition. Santiago del Principe was founded by these slaves, who afterwards rebelled from their master. Thus we see that Negroes crossed the Isthmus of Panama with Balboa; they accompanied Cortez to Mexico; they were with De Soto in 1540, one of their number being the first settler in Alabama. Negroes accompanied William Clark in the Lewis and Clark expedition, in which he explored the great Northwest and gained Oregon for the United States. A Negro named Saunders accompanied John C. Fremont in a vain effort to cross the Rocky Mountains in 1848. In the "Aslatic Guide to the World's Columbian Exposition" not able to maintain order. "American Negroes are most welcome—the proof is that: I am one myself, being a naturalized Liberian. The type we do not want, however, is that of a man named John Hall, who recently migrated to Liberia from Pennsylvania. Hall, whom we had permitted to land with his goods, in which were several thousand rounds of ammunition, was responsible for a tragedy unknown in the history of the republic. Some weeks ago some soldiers were returning from parade when one of them accidentally fell against his booth, knocking remains of the plane in which ville, Fla., April 30, 1926, while reck, lit a match, the gasoline man's body. Miss Coleman may be found the following statement: "Early in the spring of 1779 a fugitive San Domingoan slave, Baptiste Pont du Sable, found his way from the French settlements of Louisiana to the southwestern shores of Lake Michigan, built a rude cabin on the north bank of the Chicago River near its mouth, and began in a small way to trade in furs with the French and Indians. It is therefore safe to say that Pont du Sable's rude log hat was the first dwelling erected on the present site of Chicago and that this refugee slave was its first permanent resident and land-holder." During the latter part of the last century the most insistent call to the spirit of the venturesome was that made by the search for the poles. It is a miracle of history that when Commodore Peary, braving the rigors of the Arctic cold, had the honor in September, 1909, of being the first civilized human being to plant his feet on the North Pole his only companion, and the man who helped to place the stars and stripes there, was Matt Henson, a Negro. Many other examples of the Negro's pioneering prowess might be cited, but these will suffice to indicate that it will not be long before the Negro will be a recognized factor in aviation. 会 Matt Henson Arctio Explorer.

After having once accepted the invitation to a formal dinner, only death or mortal illness should prevent attendance. A formal dinner is one of the most solemn obligations of society. One may attend a formal reception and not remain more than twenty minutes, if one wishes to be prompt. The round of social duty there is brief. A lady removes her wrap, but not her hat or gloves, in the dressing room, and thence goes directly to the reception room. The guest should first greet the host and hostess, briefly, if the reception is large and the flow of incoming guests constant, then pass to the room where the refreshments are served. After partaking of these, the guest may leave without blinding adieu to the host and hostess, unless the reception is small and they are to speak a second time with the guest. If presents are given, it should be done without ostentation. The tactful, quiet way of doing it free from patronage and showing only good-will and appreciation, is the only polite way. A gentleman guest dances first with the lady he escorts or with the daughters of the hostess, or with the hostess herself; afterwards he may choose for himself, always remembering that he should assist his hostess in making the evening a pleasurable one for all. If a man is delayed in claiming a lady for the promised dance, he should make profuse apologies. If he is suddenly called away, he should try to find partners for the ladies with whom he engaged dances and should explain his leaving them. It is not obligatory, but simply a pleasant custom, for a gentleman to send flowers to a young lady whom he is going to escort to a dance party. When she is his flances, it is especially appropriate and appreciated. The lady always makes the first suggestion to leave a social gathering. It is not always necessary to bid good night to the host and hostess if it will interrupt the course of entertainment in which the host and hostess are engaged. Departing from a social affair while it is at the height of its amusement should be done cheerfully, but quietly. When one is on a visit, or at a week-end party, it is proper to follow the style and custom of the hostess, to have suitable costumes for each of the forms of recreation which one is to enjoy and to follow quite closely the requirements of the hour. Guests should not accept invitations from others without first consulting their hostess. It is an unpardonable breach of loyalty to one's host or hostess to retail an information one may have acquired on a visit, or discuss their characteristics and management with anyone, nor should one take sides with any unpleasant or embarrassing family discussion.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN Men Who Annoy Girls on the Street Only weak-minded men annoy girls by commenting on their appearance as they walk down the street. It is degrading and shows the lightness of mind which some men possess. Such remarks as "Oh, do it." "Ain't she sweet?" "My, my, my, nice night, isn't it?" "Hello, hot mamma," and numerous others are typical of the insults unscorted girls have to suffer. Why do so many men take it upon themselves to make such senseless comments to every girl they see? The audacity of some makes one furious. It is no longer true that if a girl minds her own business she will not be annoyed. The fact that men are so infternally conceived and that some girls encourage familiarity, makes it difficult to believe that there are girls who resent such advances. If our men don't respect our girls how can they expect those of the other race to? Remember, boys, that you are being continually observed. Curb your tongues, keep your trite comments to yourself.

SPECIAL ARTICLES "Distribution of Offices Chief Stumbling Block" "Distribution of Offices Chief Stumbling Block" THE A.M.E. and the A.M.E. Zion Churches have been proposing union for more than a generation. I remember back in the eighties when a joint commission of the two bodies was appointed to devise plans of amalgamation. These deliberations resulted in no practical action. Each branch of the church of God has gone on in its separate way. Several years ago the two branches of white Methodism attempted to reunite their forces and to proceed as one body, the same as they did in the good old antebellum days before the unchristian institution of human slavery split the parent body in twain. But the Negro contingent of the Northern wing formed the bone of contention. It lay in the back part of the minds of both the Northern and the Southern Methodists to set the colored brother apart as a constituent element of the consolidation of all Negro Methodists into one great Negro body, while the whites would combine readily when free from the embarrassing black brother. This would indeed be an ideal adjustment, as far as race prejudice admits of any ideal condition. The Negro in the World's Literature By THOMAS L. G. OXLEY Olavo Bilac BILAC was a poet of Negro passion who wrote from his heart, and who voiced freedom's gifts to man. He became one of the greatest poets of Brazil. In him we find another Negro poet of much power and beauty and pathos. Here, too, is a Negro man who saw and felt the wrongs inflicted upon his people and who was brave enough to sing his songs to liberty's cause. He, like his famous countryman, Machado in Assis is totally unknown outside of Brazil. According to the basic principles of Christianity, there should be no line of demarkation on account of race or blood. All bodies of Christians who believe alike should form one communion. But the Nerro is the controlled element. He cannot dictate the conditions by which he is controlled. His insistence upon the brotherhood of man merely hardens the white Christian into his determination to frustrate its practical fulfillment.

In him we find power and beauty and paul man who saw and felt the v ple and who was brave en- erty's cause. He, like his de Assis, is totally unknown Those who know of him in America as a poet were never informed that he was of Negro origin. But after all has been said as regards the race to which a man belongs, must we judge his literary compositions by the color of his skin or for art's sake? Because an artist's face is black his works are seldom if at any times accepted as clever or original. Such is the general conception of Americans. The poet's full name was Olavo Braz Martins dos Gulmarnes Bilac. He was born at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1865. He first studied medicine at Rio and then law at São Paulo. Trinely, Bilac was a Brazilian among Brazilians. The sweetness and grace of his poetry as well as his power and great imagination brought him the sobriquet: Prince of Brazilian poets. Bilac's object as a poet was to polish the language of his people by giving to it dignity and flexibility. He believed that before Brazil could claim for herself a national literature, her sons should first be schooled. Bilac's poetry is passion. It is smooth granite, well chiselled. His language is pure, almost too immaculate, with few blisters which some called the "coarseness of his school"—overflowing with moral impressions and refined sensuality. In Alvorada de Amor he goes into the inner retreat of love. He says: He who loves invites the pangs in which he lives: And instead of soothing thesecries He takes a new care with which he but rekindles them... I know, then, that this is the reason... Why I go about so. only madmen and lovers weep in their greatest joy. And in a sonnet he goes nearer to heavenly beauty than to earthly bliss. Blaine was a poet of love. And love is the keynote of his poems. His cup of love was large and the passion of his heart rose spontaneously and run over. But first read the sonnet: For the heart that suffers, in the scale that lament. AMALGAMATION OF METHODISTS must perforce deal with the practical untif the ideal is feasible.

It more exalt the heart of a man ever, and In the greatest purity, remain On earth and love like a human being. There he is the poet lover of the human heart. I am inclined to think with Senor Morales that it was the beauty of his style and the various passionate flights of love which brought to the poet the fame that was for many years his. One writer called him "the nightingale that all lovers knew and loved." And he goes on further to say he was "the poet of a malden's heart." Bilac's poems are fresh. And the fountain from which they spring was always his heart. When passionate, he was sedulently ever restraintful. Love was always for him the birthplace of his finer poems. In "Bejo Eterno" we find in him one of his most passionate moods. Of his lover he says: I want an endless kiss That shall last an entire life And soothe my desire! My blood seethes. Slake it with your kiss, Kis me so: Close your cars to the sound of the world. the world. And kiss me, beloved! Live for me, alone. For my life only. Only for my love! Only for my love! He wrote for several theatres and was for many years a frequent contributor to various Brazilian newspapers. Blac was, in my estimation, the foremost sonnetist of Brazil. He was the first to perfect the sonnet form. He was a member of the Brazilian Academy of Letters. He died in 1922 The Harlem Family The Negro cannot defer his independent development until the white Christian makes up his mind to live up to the requirements of his creed. If the four bodies of Negro Methodists could amalgamate into one with the whites themselves combining, it would, in my judgment, lead more certainly to THE EDITOR DEAN KELLY MILLER. the ultimate union of all Methodists, than by part of them remaining in left-handed relationship with their white co-religionists. In every relation of life it is clearly apparent that the Negro must become one with himself before he is likely to become one with the American people. Husbands and Wives Are Now at the Crossroads THE foundation of the state, the nation and the race is the security of the family life. Any element, social or economic, which would destroy the family should be stamped out. The early experience of the race in the Western World tended to establish, in our minds, but little respect for that unit of life called the family. The Negro man and woman had been compelled, during the long years before the Civil War, to undergo continuous separation from each other. To give birth to children and then never to see them in life again was an experience so common as to be the rule rather than the exception. It must be admitted that this sort of treatment resulted in the breaking down of those fibres of social resistance and tenacity that go to make up the binding fabric which holds the family in social place. Since the Civil War the Negro family has demonstrated unique results in social adjustment. It has woven from the tattered threads of a badly used social material the most amazing garment of social cohesion in the social development of any race. And the present generation of colored people can find no excuse for its laxity in family cohesion and social restraint in the early experience of the race in America. In Harlem today the drift of the family appears to be in the general direction of destruction. The social agencies which are developed automatically in every social group as safeguards to the continuation of the family, and therefore to the perpetration of the group, have either broken entirely down or have become so hopelessly inactive as to present a problem of grave proportions. The church, the school, the fraternal organization, the civic organization and all such units for the social education and direction of the individual are either inadequate or have failed to visualize the duties for which they exist. As a result, the Harlem husband and wife are at cross-purposes, hundreds, yes, thousands, of families are apart. The community smiles, knowingly THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 1927 Bu KELLY MILLER: Before he becomes desirable for co-partnership, he must have something that the white man wants as well as to want something that the white man has. The union of the two independent branches of the Methodist Church is immediately feasible. They are both the product of protest. The prejudice of race drove them both from the white communion where they were consigned to the back pews and upper galleries. Racial self-respect actuated the two organizations alike. There is no doctrinal difference or barrier of theological tenets. They are not separated by lines of geographical division as are the white Methodists by a line of latitude into North and South. They have no separate national or racial traditions. The Yankee is a Congregational, the Scotch-Irish a Presbyterian, the German Protestant a Lutheran, the foreign born of Celtic or Latin blood is a Catholic for reasons which have deep roots in history and tradition. But the divisive principle of the A. M. E. and the A. M. E. Z. churches is measured by the addition of a "z" which may as well stand for zero. Any organization which has been in operation for a long while will develop its own internal political machinery. Church politics are known to be manipulative as state politics.

In the family courts of the city the simple spectacle of searing one colored family out of twenty present, as it was late as 1920, has ceased; and now there are days in the domestic relations court when more than 50 per cent of the litigants are colored. The time-worn service which the mothers and parents of warring couples had given of old has given way to the multious interference of today, which is work- teed to those who their marriage vee From the look Harlem today, one tited in concluding a penalty placed havior on the p folk in favor of corrupt and erriving Wife beating a public prosecution among Harlem in old theory that a was his castle done with witness, and which was once the mother's Edgar M. Grey ing not only to keep husbands and wives apart, but in many cases to cause their separation. Time was when the good advice and persuasive restraining influence of the parents of couples had operated to change the evil course of a wayward spouse and to bring peace and harmony in the future domestic life of the family. Today, however, there are parents in Harlem who deliberately concoct plans grounded in contrivances of evil and vileness, which tend to destroy the homes of married couples. A married woman is permitted in the home of her parents to entertain men other than her husband; young married men receive the co-operation of their parents in the use of the home as a meeting place with women who are not their wives. The slightest disagreement which might occur between an in-law and a child-in-law causes war by the in-law and her or his reprisal develops into a determined decision to destroy the family unity of the offending party by destroying his or her home. In the early days of the growth of Harlem the so-called select society would penalize parties to a marriage contract who had broken any of its provisions by refusing to entertain these offenders within its confines. Matters have undergone such change that not only has the so-called select society lowered its bars to the erring spouse, but the basis of membership in the smart set appears to be guaran- the great stumbling block. There would be fewer bishops and general offices, a condition which the younger aspiring church politicians contemplate with uneasiness. Only this perfectly human propensity will defeat the plan, if it is defeated at all. Those already in office favor it, those who would be in office oppose it. To an outsider such sordid ambitions should not be permitted to stand in the way of the good of the church. But also, who can say it—"nay"? The arguments are all on one side. They are so plain that they need only to be stated and to be seen and accepted. The work of the two bodies is overlapping to the detriment of both. There does not seem to be that spirit of stimulating simulation which doubles the endeavor of both rivals, but rather a shackening of aggressive endeavor on both sides. The A. M. E. Church has made no material growth in the city of Washington for forty years; the Zion counterpart has done but little if any better. While the population has doubled, Methodism has practically stood still. I might as well include the other two branches of Negro Methodists. The church expansion of the capital city has been mainly among the Baptists. The same condition is essentially true of Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and indeed all of our great centers. Our cities at least have become baptized. Nor has the Methodist Church made any great headway in the country districts. The Methodist bodies have not done much more than to hold their own while the Baptists have doubled their numbers. That aggressive attitude which ought teed to those who have broken their marriage vows. From the looks of things in Harlem today, one would be justified in concluding that there is a penalty placed upon good behavior on the part of married folk in favor of those who are corrupt and ering. Wife beating as a cause for public prosecution has increased among Harlem Negroes. The old theory that a man's home was his castle does not any more bear witness, and the sacredness which was once the character of motherhood has been displaced by a mockery of this function by the husbands of today. The city government, already planted by the wafts of thousands, is finding it difficult to house the large number of colored children left homeless because of the disruption of their family life; and the havoc of race prejudice in the children's homes of the city continues to take its toll of the moral and physical stamina of the child. It is shocking to realize the abuses which go on in Harlem with the full knowledge of society. No penalty is imposed for violations of the moral codes. Men and women are permitted to drift into the seething children of immorality and the children of such union, in the meanwhile, are sent to the doors. Social organizations throw up their hands in despair when the question is discussed, with their heads and leaders; but this attitude does not excuse them from the duty to undertake social supervision of the family in Harlem. It is true, as some of the heads of these organizations suggest, that, in a community which is as loosely knit as is Harlem, it is impossible to establish social interaction between the families and themselves. But this is only one phase of the question. If it is possible for the organizations among other people to bring about social restraint among the families of immigrants, it would seem not to be an impossible task among Negroes. The Harlem Negro, in his general social tendencies, is no different to other people or to Negroes in other sections of the country. He is simply a product of his environment. If this environment is bad, he becomes bad, and vice versa. The responsibility rests upon the shoulders of those who know better, and they cannot shirk the responsibility by calling one that "this is Hildam." The writer was called to the office of a judge of the Domestic Relations Court not long ago and was requested by the judge to sit in the court for an entire week. During this time he was amazed at the nature and quantity of complaints which were entered against colored hues. to bring every sinner into the fold has grown feeble almost to the point of non-existence. This may be due to the fact that the chief endeavor has been to develop those already enlisted rather than to seek new recruits. A Methodist minister will get more real concrete, tangible effective work out of a congregation of four hundred than a Baptist will out of a congregation of two thousand. The Baptist gets the members but does not work them; while the Methodist works the members, but does not get them. The one has the efficiency of organization. The other has evangelical fervor and missionary zeal. The race needs the two disciplines. If all of the Methodists were united into one, the amalgamated body would form a serious rival to the Baptists. The two working together in the spirit of tolerance and mutual good will would cover quite the whole field of the Negro's religious needs. By united endeavor there would be good reason for the hope of bringing the unreached millions into the one fold or the other. The Presbyterian, Congregational and Episcopal residue, without ambition for numbers, might well serve as the little leaven to leaven the whole lump. We should then have but two great religious bodies covering the same field instead of one-half dozen as a present, with the noodless waste of duplication, and lack of aggressive onslaught on the stronghold of sin. We hear much said nowadays about the consolidation of rural and city churches among white religionists. The need among the Negroes is still more apparent. Meanwhile Children Continue to Be Sufferers bands and the defenses which were made by them. It must be realized that, although the domestic relations courts are not interested in any other violations of obligations but non-support, the judges are vested with the power to attempt certain degrees of family readjustment. Abandonment during pregnancy constituted about 50 per cent of the cases which were heard during the week ending June 10. Excuses ran all the way from playing the numbers on the part of the wife to staying out all night and drunkenness. A novel case was that of a post-office carrier, who was charged with non-support. He gave as his excuse the fact that his wife insisted upon going away from home at night, leaving him to take care of the two children and refusing to give any account of where she had gone except to say that she had visited her mother. He told the judge that when, on several occasions, he had followed her to the home of her mother, she was not to be found there, and that the mother would abuse him, saying that he had no right to follow the wife around, she being over twenty-one. In this case the court advised him to seek some form of remedy in the civil courts. in another case the wife complained that the husband had been lured away from home by his mother, who kept a former sweetheart of the husband as a lodger at her home and encouraged the son to live there in order that a clandestine relationship might be undertaken between the son and lodger. The cases in which there are no children are of small importance compared with those in which the children are a consideration, and something ought to be done to help to keep families together. ADDRESSES OPEN LETTER TO E. F. CARRY In an open letter which A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, addresses to Mr. E. F. Carry, president of the Pullman Company, he points out great need for high order of industrial statesmanship to grapple with insistent demand of porters for right of self-organization and living wage. He also shows how a boma fide union like the Brotherhood will develop higher order of discipline and efficiency, intelligence and constructive initiative. SPECIAL ARTICLES "Keep Politics Out of the Preacher," Dean Warns It sickens the heart to go into a town and witness three or four sickly little Methodist churches, which, if amalgamated, would make a vigorous organization. Three or four ministers live a precarious existence on divided substance scarcely sufficient for one. All of this would be remedied by a sensible combination, against which there is only one objection—church politics. The union of the two churches now under proposal would form a body of powerful influence in the general equation of racial good. Here we should have over a million Negroes under one ecclesiastical discipline and authority. The opportunity for usefulness and power both as a religious and social agency would be appealing to the ambitions young men who are now turning away from the great religious estates which their fathers and grandfathers built up and handed down to them. For some time to come the general life of the race will be powerfully influenced, if not controlled, by the church. Politicians know the power of organization. The A. M. E. and the Zion churches have more political influence than any other organizations in the land.

COLORED Americans who have visited England during the past ten years have felt their trips incomplete without a visit to the London home of the late Ira Aldridge. Consequently it has been the good fortune of a number of us to be welcomed in the home at 2 Bedford Gardens, Kensington, West London. A trip there from the center of London means a ride in the "two-penny tube" and upon alighting at the Notting Hill Gate station and inquiring here for the street and number, you are told by the ever polite policeman to "walk up Silver street and take the third turning at the top." When one has been in London a short while such directions can be followed without the mental bewilderment that comes to him at first. In the summer of 1906 I followed these directions and found myself at the door of a modest little home in the Kensington section of London. In answer to my ring the door was opened by "Ritchie," the Aldridge maid, whom I am sure all American visitors remember. Upon presentation of my letter of introduction from Miss Leota Henson-Turner of Detroit, who had been a close friend of the Aldridges during her residence in England, covering a period of several years, I was escorted up to the drawing room, second floor front. While waiting for the appearance of some member of the family I amused myself by looking at the many photos on the walls. The first to arrest the eye was a large lifesize picture of Ira Aldridge taken in his costume as Othello. On the same wall was a large bust picture of him, showing on the lapel of his coat the many decorations given him by various crowned heads. Autographed photos, too numerous to mention, were upon every wall, and one had but to read the names thereon to realize in what high esteem Ira Aldridge was held as an actor and man. My visit that day was a memorable one: I was soon greeted by Mrs. Aldridge, the widow, a most charming lady, who was a great friend of the late Jenny Lind, and the two daughters, Misses Laurand and Ira. During the conversation I learned that Ira Aldridge was born in Bel Air, Maryland, U. S. A. in 1810. When quite young he was employed by Wallack, the actor and theatrical manager. In this way he came in contact with great actors of the day and soon became fired with the ambition to be an actor. Edmund Kean recognized his ability and encouraged him and Aldridge went to England where he appeared in several plays. As may be imagined, he created a great sensation wherever he appeared. He soon became famous as an actor of Shakespearean plays and appeared as Othello in Covent Garden in 1833. From this time until his death in 1867 he was considered the greatest Othello. Aldridge was highly esteemed ent and painful. ber them three to one, yet they impress much less influence on the political and general equation. This is because they are less well organized. They are not able to swing the power of the masses as you would that of the man. Herein consists the great advantage of the Methodist policy in all social ways. It becomes, therefore, a matter of race-wide importance that this religious order should become as efficient as possible. The strength should be united, instead of divided and dissinated. Let us hope that the commission which now has this matter under consideration may bring the long desired union to happy fraternity. This will be but the first step in the union of all Negro Methodists into one strong aggressive, well organized church militant. The militancy will not be bewholly religious, against the forces of Satan and sin, but militant for all of the just and righteous demands of the race. The leaders of the church, of right, ought to direct the people in the way they should go. The charge that the church meddles with politics is not a serious one. The good of the people at times demands that the preacher get into politics; but when politics gets into the preacher, his spiritual mission is at an end.

The son died in early manhood after having attracted a great deal of attention as a pianist. The elder daughter, Miss Lauranah, was educated for opera and appeared with great success, but owing to ill health has devoted her musical activities to occasional London recitals. The younger daughter, Miss Ima, seems to have inherited her musical ability from her mother and her father's magnetic personality. When quite young she won a scholarship and was accepted as a private pupil of Jenny Lind, the famous Swedish Nightingale. For years Miss Aldridge has been counted among London's most successful vocal teachers, and in recent years she has shown great talent as a composer, many of her songs and orchestral compositions being heard in the European music rooms. The meeting with this talented and gifted family is a neverforgetten experience, and that the two talented daughters are still keeping the name of Aldridge in the art of Europe is something for which their American cousins should feel proud. SPAULDING WRITES ON NEGRO BUSINESS Writing in the July number of The Messenger, C. C. Spaulding, president of the North Carolina Mutual Life insurance Company, one of the largest businessmen owned by Negroes around a solemn warning is Just "Dangerous Tendencies in Negro Business." Denying the recent charge that no million-dollar Negro concern can exist in the South, he says: "I have yet to see or head of a corporation worth a million dollars built by Negroes anywhere in this country that has been either stolen or wrecked by white people."

JAMAICA WOMAN FALLS FROM TROLLEY Mrs. Lucy Johnson, 30, of 110-03 159th street, Jamaica, fell from a trotley car of the Jamaican Central Railway Company last Thursday, at Jamaica avenue and 159th street, and suffered lacerations of the head and general contusions of the body. The car was in charge of Motorman Stephen Senseel, of 102-26 153th street. Richmond Hill. She was attended and went home. His shouts to halt were ignored by the training woman and McCarthy drew his service revolver and fired a shot. He had aimed low, nearly in an attempt to frighten the survivor, but she collapsed to the walk wounded. The patrolmen attracted by sound of the revolver shot, arrested at the scene and held a man of colored people back while ambulance was called by McCarthy. The officer who responded to the sound that Mrs. Kennedy was densely wounded, but that she was unable to appear in court for some time so she was taken to the hospital where she was placed in ward. McCarthy is 27 years old, married and lives at 4366 Atlantic avenue. He was appointed to the Po Department February 15 of the year. W. McCarthy fired the shot at the woman could not be deterred by the police. The young man is of athletic build and supposedly fleet of foot. An investigation was immediately started into the shooting by the patrol officers. AND THIS IS HOW IT WAS TONED DOWN. Placing not guilty to charges of possession of narcotics, Jess Givens and George Lewis, both of 74th street, Jamaica, were held on bail for a hearing tomorrow when arraigned before Martis Miller Saturday in the Jamaica Court. Milton and Lewis were arrested by Capt. McQueeney, Lieut. Devin and Detective Sabatino of the Humala Squad, following the arrest of Patricianman Stephen McCarrion of the Jamaica Precinct on charge of felonious assault. The case was released on $2,000 ball Sunday by Magistrate Miller. According to the police, McCarrion went to the Church street address early Friday and attempted to arrest Mrs. Catherine Kennedy of St Mark's avenue and the coached men on a charge of homicide conduct. When police investigated they learned that the man attempted to run away. McCarrion fired two bullets, one of which struck Mrs. Kennedy. Mrs. Kennedy was rushed to Jail a Hospital suffering from the strain in her right thigh. Patrol Chief Metarthy will be given a chance to growl to tell why he shot the shots, but Mrs. Kennedy will not be able to answer a charge of disorderly conduct for some time.

Wednesday, June 22, 1927 Philanthropy and Schools "TODAY," said John D. Rockefeller, Jr., in the course of his address at the commencement luncheon of Brown University recently, "the majority of students go to college for a good time, for social considerations or to fit themselves to earn money. The idea of service to the community is no longer the chief consideration. It would seem, therefore, that under these changed conditions the student might properly be expected to pay for the benefits he receives." THIS STATEMENT, coming as it does from one of the richest men in the world, a man who has donated millions of dollars to educational institutions in all lands, is of vast significance. And yet, what Mr. Rockefeller says is all too true of students in general, though not wholly true of the Negro student, who, while taking his educational cue from the white student, may not hardly be said to have enjoyed or to enjoy today the same educational opportunities as white students. THEREFORE, such a revolutionary program, if once put into effect, would prove decidedly harmful to the Negro student, at least, during its initial stages. He would find himself confronted with higher tuition fees, with less money with which to pay them; he would find it more difficult to secure the student loans Mr. Rockefeller recommended as a help to the poor, though deserving, students and less able through the denial of equal opportunity to repay the loan—if he were successful in securing one—after he had completed his education and started on his life work. AND YET, the effect need not always be unwholesome. Too many Negroes go to college nowadays without once stopping to ask who must pay the immediate bills for their education. If the student doesn't pay them himself in dollars and cents, the least that he can do is to repay them in service to his own race and to humanity. Somebody must pay, and where the student himself is the one most directly benefited, says Mr. Rockefeller, he should pay. NOT ALONE in education, but in all other matters touching his life, the Negro is not worrying about who pays the bills. He wants Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations, he wants theatres, he wants to progress in literature and art, he wants to make economic progress, he wants all the luxuries of life; in short, he wants everything that everybody else wants without paying an equal or proportionate price for it. HOW LUDICROUS it must have appeared that all of Fisk University's graduates found it such a difficult --- EDITORIAL PAGE problem to raise one hundred thousand dollars, when it is considered that the white race had created an endowment fund of one million dollars, and the one hundred thousand dollars was to secure the benefit of the one million dollars. THE NEGRO, like all other peoples, needs education; he needs almost everything anyone else needs, and more; but, more than anything else, he needs to realize that he can't get something for nothing, and that he is only kidding himself when he thinks he can get something for nothing. MR. ROCKEFELLER would except only teaching students and students for the ministry, but what he says of students in general applies in too many instances to these two professions also and without regard to either race or creed. Commercialism is creeping into both the schoolroom and the pulpit, and many pursue these vocations solely for what they get out of them, and not because they are imbued with a desire to serve. THE STUDENT who realizes that he must pay in some way for his education should make a better student and a better man or woman, and while Mr. Rockefeller's proposal may be revolutionary, it may yet give to the world a more dependable citizen. J. Finley Wilson's Proclamation IT IS ENTIRELY too early to foresee the effect Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson's Proclamation, changing the place of the Grand Lodge Session of the Improved, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, will have on the future of that order. Coming at a date — with the convention but two short weeks away — the whole situation seems most unfortunate. The Proclamation gives complete authenticity to reports first published three months ago in The Amsterdam News that New York City might lose the convention — reports which at the time were branded as "premature and inaccurate" by the Grand Exalted Rule himself, and as "a damaging press card" by one of our contemporaries. Much as we dislike seeing New York City lose the convention; much as we sympathize with the local lodges of the order; much as we suspicion the personal and other motives behind the change — inexcusable in view of the fact that officials of the order should have warned the delegates against the selection of New York City last August — we trust that a split of the order will not be the only thing to give relief from the throes in which it now finds itself. TO SAVE the order from disruption of sacrifice must be made — some way somewhere, somehow, by some one or by many. After all, life is short; time is fleeting, and the future of the whole order should be of greater importance than the success of any one individual.

THERE is a natural affection between parents and children which is not necessarily stimulated by these Mother's and Father's Days; but there seems to be practically no natural affection be- To the union, it should have been more important to have offered these skilled Negro artisans a full-size union card, along with full-size privileges, than to worry about hurting someone's feelings by taking the colored "boys" in. This might, in days gone by, have eliminated what was once Wardman competition, which is now Wardman success. However, that was then—for Wardman and his colored men are now laying bricks—they are not attending labor meetings. A stitch in time saves nine. WHILE the white folks are prating about the large number of Negro criminals who are haled before the bar of justice to answer every type of charge from disorderly conduct to manslaughter, it might be a profitable pastime for us to note the few times we hate ourselves be between young men and women and in-laws.

EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES Near Toccon, Ga., a few days ago a woman was seized by masked men, stretched out on the ground and given eighty-two lashes with a heavy piece of leather. And this brings to mind something that is commonly overlooked when kukluckery is the subject of discussion: that floggings are inflicted on women almost as often as they are inflicted on men. Is that fact of any significance? It would surely seem so. Near Toccon, Ga., a few days ago a woman, selzed by masked men, stretched out on the ground given eighty-two lashes with a heavy pie feather. And this brings to mind something it commonly overlooked when kukluckery is the act of discussion: that floggings are inflicted women almost as often as they are inflicted on us that fact of any significance? It would seem so. For the kuklux philosophers are fond of their allegiance to "the purity of womanhood, eight of woman to be involute in her chastity, quantity of the home," and such things.

Of the many this life of the renown nothing is more. For the kuklux philosophers are fond of crying their allegiance to "the purity of womanhood," "the right of woman to be inviolate in her chastity," "the sanctity of the home," and such things. Whether they oppose foreigners, Catholics or the Captain of the German U-boat which sank the Lustania, their fulminations are always in the name of this ideal which they hold up before us—the sacrosanctity of woman. Well, many of us feel that woman is entitled to be sacrosanct. And many of us feel that there are times when extraordinary measures are called for in order to protect her. We do not find fault with the night riders of reconstruction days; things were desperate then and something had to be done to restore some blameless of sanity. But did the Ku Klux Klan of post-bellum days stretch women out on the ground, even Negro women, and give them eighty-two lashes with a heavy piece of leather? If so, one recalls no mention of the fact. For these men were gentlemen; they not only accepted the basic assumptions of chivalry but also its higher implications; they knew that women cannot Colorful News "Movies" BY THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE Grotesque Journalism HARRIS DICKSON (white) flood journalist on the staff of the New York World, has just penned his latest "epic" entitled "Heroism Shown by Negroes in the Southern Flood." Mr. Dickson may have been sincere, but incapable of making a descriptive journalistic narration of the blighted Negroes of the flood-ridden Mississippi Valley; or he may be insincere, but capable of producing newspaper minstrelsy aunt the flood victim. At any rate, his contribution to a recent issue of the World—a journal to which we are much indebted for its continued fairness toward our group—smacks of Van Vechtenism. Munchaeusenism and prattle. For instance, Mr. Dickson writes: "Look yonder, boy," one of the recorders said to a young Negro, who had been wading in water for three days. "Look yonder! What are you going to do when you get on top of that hill?" "Who? Me? Well, suh. I satutly aims to kick off dese wet shoes and prance around wid bure foots in de dust." Again, Mr. Dickson writes: "Two Negro preachers start a revival on a barge. Together the pair makes one complete preacher, because the yellow one can read, but has no fluency, while the black one is a natural orator, who doesn't know 'b' from a hill's foot. "Brundder," the filibiterate one asks, "please give out my text." And so on, Mr. Dickson, whose flood press effort is about as valuable in America as a Russian koneck coined by the Soviet Government, essays to describe the Mississippi calamity under the guises of "Heroism" with the comic savvity not unlike that which abounds in the Pickwick Papers. It could have been a splendid constructive effort had Mr. Dickson stopped to think that comedy and tragedy never appear together on the same stage. Some time, perhaps, white journalists will realize that Negroes have reached the stage where they rightly resent "end men" stuff in printers' ink. Times are too serious nowadays to spoil a gallery of press make-up" with insinently stated news. In the meantime, we hope that our good friend, Lester A. Walton, of the World staff, will take Mr. Dickson to school with him, so that he may absorb an aprio- K. K. K. Chivalry ( From the New York World ) private style in which to describe either Negro life or Negro death. Ah! Open Shop! DOWN in the national capital there holds forth the Wardman Construction Company, Inc., headed by Harry Wardman (white), contractor for, and builder of, gigantic projects, such as apartment houses, inns, and hotels, for occupancy by white residents of means and influence. Wardman, with a small cash balance on hand, some years ago, after he had completed his first project, faced his "closed shop" competitors with confidence, for he knew that his idea was sound. Ah, but you are asking what has this to do with the "open shop," which is otherwise known as the labor harlot in circles of Union Labor. Just this: Look upon any of the Wardman projects any day in Washington, D. C.—and there are many to view during these rare June days—and you will see, not a union label, to be sure. but you will see dozens of Negro mechanics, masons, bricklayers, plasterers, carpenters, and other building tradesmen, whose dusky hands shall have laid the foundation and placed the walls in dull space. into which, after the job is done, they will not dare enter. On Wardman projects they draw good pay, easy hours, PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT, and enjoy a prestige which makes Wardman projects outstanding in the national capital. After all, when the work is over, who cares whether black or white hands laid each brick or set each foot of tiling. Color is only an imaginary cloud, as is evidenced by the application for space in Wardman buildings. To the Negro building tradesmen, it is more important to erect a building than to worry about living in it after completion. To Wardman, it is more important to have the job well done than to worry about who is going to do it, white, black, union or non-union labor. be revered in one moment and flogged in the next. Thus they lived up to their code, and thus they commanded our respect. But the modern "knight" of the Ku Klux Klan? Let us have done with this nonsense about his high ideals. Let us have done with this pretense. put forward by himself but accepted by many who wish to think well of him, that even when he is lawless he is actuated by a sincere desire to "protect" womanhood. How can a man who makes such pretenses stretch a woman, any woman, out on the ground and give her eighty-two lashes? We may as well face the fact that his high words are false; that he flogs because he gets a sadistic pleasure out of flogging, a pleasure not the less keen because he indulges it with solemn face; that he flogs a woman because it heightens his pleasure to strip her naked and hear her scream. "If any member of the Ku Klux Klan took part in the Toroco flogging," says the Grand Dragon of Georgia, "the Klan will do its utmost to send him to the State Penitentiary." Bravo! Will the Grand Dragon now take the floor and prove that the Ku Klux Klan, by its conduct in the last few years, and whether its members are guilty this time or not, did not furnish the example for the Toroco flogging." LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Lindbergh and the Negro Problem To the Editor of The Amsterdam News: I read with intense interest the timely and exhaustive article—"Lindbergh and the Negro Problem"—by Spilb Bryant Foston, in your last issue. I hope every Negro who reads The Amsterdam News read it. Although I am no critic in journalism, I consider Mrs. Poston's work a masterpiece. "Lindbergh and the Negro Problem" should grip the Negro public as the the Sun's editorial "Lindbergh Flies Alone" has the general public. It is as thoughtful. Mrs. Poston certainly did hit the nail on the head when she wrote this article, for no people is as badly in need of "The Spirit of Lindbergh" as the Negro. If anything will, this article should, and will, inculcate into the young Negro that he, too, can "go it alone." though the task be ever so difficult. Of the many things that may be gained from the life of the renowned Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, nothing is more inspiring than the last quality which the writer singled out, "his ability to do the difficult task alone." I understand that a great demand is being made for Mr. Anderson's (the writer of the Sun editorial) "Lindbergh Files Alone." I hope this demand will be duplicated by our group for "Lindbergh and the Negro Problem." GEORGE WALLACE HUNTER. 10 East 115th St. New York City. June 18, 1927. LETTERS fore the judge in an attempt to strengthen our standing under State and Federal Constitutions, as well as municipal ordinances, which are, at times, aimed to keep the lid tightly upon us. When Charles Sumner, courageous senator from Massachusetts, pleaded for equality under the public school laws of the Bay State for the little black girl, who had been denied a public school education; when the preliminary cases under the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments were tried; when the Levy act of New York State was first tested to insure equality in public places—all these were stirring legal melodramas to raise our struggling group to a higher legal level under the privileges of citizenship. Despite the few outstanding cases which have been decided during the past quarter century, and the few which are now pounding, there has been a hull in the legal advocacy of our rights as citizens. The Jim Crow laws could be given tests much severer than those which they have met thus far: separate school laws might be put through the legal strainer much more vigorously then ever before. It is even time to try again matters of public rights, as contemplated under the Civil Rights bills, the adverse decision in which was vehemently dissented to by the late Mr. Justice Harlan We have much to do besides DEFENDING ourselves in suits, and engaging in bursts of oratory as to what might and ought to be. We have the chance frequently to become the aggressors where legal rights are ground to pieces by the heel of despotism. It is time that we, rather than the other fellow, should first say: "Good Morning, Judge!" Mortality "MORTALITY Statistics-1924." just off the press of the United States Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. should be carefully studied by every thoughtful Negro in America; and by those people, who economically and socially—consciously or otherwise—exert any influence over Negro life, the volume should be made the subject of a lecture. "Here is an excerpt from the mournful story which "Mortality Statistics" tells: "The deaths of Negroes in the registration States in 1924 numbered 147,522, with a rate of 17.6 per 1,000 estimated population as AGAINST 17 in 1923. The rates were HIGHER in 1924 than in 1923 for 21 of the 28 states which showed rates for the two years. In the ten states shown by color, the rates for colored were higher than for white; while Kentucky had a rate of 20.1 for colored against 9.9 for white." In other words, in one year we gained an impetus of six-tenths of one per cent in leaving this world behind, while the white folks showed a considerably The South EXPIR By WILLIAM HE DID not mean to apply sent the National Governor of Mississippi appointment of one Negro habilitation Committee, and per cent of those to be "it."

The South's Fairness EXPLAINS IT The South's Fairness EXPLAINS IT HE DID not mean to do that, of course. He simply sent the National Government a telegram, "as Governor of Mississippi," protesting against the appointment of one Negro doctor on the Flood Rehabilitation Committee, although Negroes make up 85 per cent of those to be "rehabilitated." That one brief telegram from the Governor of Mississippi exposes the South's unfitness to be "let alone" in its dealing with the Negro better than any Northern or Negro "radical" could ever have exposed it in a volume on the subject. This attitude of Governor Dennis Murphree (we do not know where he got his name, but he certainly knows how to expose the weakness of his position) exemplifies the best reason why intelligent Negroes should be placed on all the commissions that are to handle this flood situation and the rehabilitation. The best meanings of a foolish man's words are not drawn from their syntactical construction, but from their other implications. Think it over: Negroes will do about all the hard, forced, conscripted labor of this rehabilitation; they must slave and sicken and die at it; they constitute 85 per cent of the sufferers and doubtless 99 per cent of the suffering — and yet no colored man or colored physician must have any hand in the matter or any influence on their treatment. They must be left to the mercy of such degenerate attitudes as that shown by this Governor. We did our best to bring this situation to the attention of President Coolidge, Secretary Hoover and the Red Cross even before it happened, by our ordinary reasoning and common sense, but for having made the situation so clear that even a wayfaring fool could understand it, commend us to Dennis Murphree, "Governor of Mississippi." Will the National Government back down before such barbarous attitudes? Dr. S. D. Redmond of Jackson, whom the Administration was appointing on this commission, is as competent as any white physician of Mississippi, and is better known than any of them and will doubtless be much fairer on all questions affecting the white sufferers than any of those other physicians will be on questions affecting the black. greater tendency than before in clinging to the lucure and fame of America. (If this increase continues, scientists need not stay awake figuring out the number of years required for a completed amalgamation of this dark tenth of America—because we'll all be dead.) Just why we are so prone to blazing a hasty trail to the pearly gates, when we've so much to do here for our children and our grandchildren, in the face of withering competition, is a question which our welfare experts and organizations need well to ponder over. We'll be glad when Charlie Hall and his Elks Mortality Commission shall have made their official report. And in the meantime we would like to see our medical representatives add to their professional and ethical pledges the resolution to exercise a greater national concern over the preservation of Negro life and health.
