Cleveland cannot hold the twenty-eighth Grand Lodge session. New York has until July 22 to effect an agreement of immunity with the white Elks' Grand Lodge. The I. B. P. O. E. of W. Grand Lodge must reimburse the New York Elks for all monies expended in the interest of bringing the convention to New York, should it be taken elsewhere. There are seven other states besides New York with laws against Negroes operating as Elks, including Ohio, where the last convention was successfully held. All convention plans for any other city must wait until one month before the date of holding the Grand Lodge session, Monday, August 22. Should New York fail to gain a grant of immunity Newark will most likely get the convention.

NEW YORKERS SPRING SURPRISE.
After Derry Howard had con-
vince of Federal Judge Clark, before whom the case was heard, that an injunction obtained under the Gratton Law actually existed in the State of New York, restraining colloidal people from operating there as Elks, the New Yorkers sprang a surprise on Howard and the defendants by proving, that a similar law existed in the State of Ohio, where the convention was successfully held last year, and the rule to which the grand exalted ruler had again called the conven-

Fugitive Arrested at Mother's Bier
Boston Churchman, in Government Service, involved in Shooting
BOSTON, Mass., June 27. James Postel, an official in the People's Baptist Church, and a postal employee, was arrested at the hier of his mother, Mrs. Riley of Fort avenue, last Thursday by Officer Rockett. He is now being held in $15,000 bail.
Several months ago Postel had an episode with a Mrs. Roberts of $93 Tremont street, with whom he was infatuated. Being refused admittance to the woman's apartment, the churchman fired several shots through the door. A warrant was immediately issued for his arrest, but he fed the city.
Later he was apprehended in Philadelphia, where he was still the employee of Uncle Sam. His extradition, however, was destroyed. Grief over the death of his mother caused the refugee to return to Massachusetts, where the warrant was executed.
Postel is a married man with several children and Mrs. Roberts is also married. The accused man was bailed out and allowed to attend his mother's funeral.

Man, Ordered Out of House, Leaves Note Saying He Killed Bessie Donahue — Tangled Love Affair Given as Cause
A murder and suicide were revealed when a neighbor glanced across the way into the kitchen window of Bessie Donahue, 33, 60 West 140th street. Sunday morning, George Wilson, the neighbor, said he saw her lying on the floor and across her body lay a man, who was identified as Luther Hall, 30, 25 West 128th street, who, by his own handwriting, proved to be her murderer and the destroyer of his own life.
The police believe that the affair was the result of a tangled love affair of two people who were already married to someone else. The woman is alleged to have a husband serving time in Atlanta prison, and the man is said to have a wife somewhere in the South.
Wilson said he discovered the bodies when he got out of bed shortly after midnight to get a drink of water. One of the rooms in his apartment permits a view into the rooms of the Donahue apartment on the fifth floor across the way. Seeing the two bodies sprawled on floor in such a manner, as he casually glanced out the window, aroused his suspicion. He hastily dressed and notified the police at the West 135th street station. Policeman Gasrum accompanied him back to the house and broke into the Donahue apartment, where the bodies were found lying in a pool of blood.
A 32-calibre Spanish type revolver was found beside the bodies. On a nearby table was found a note written and signed by Hall, which read:
"She ordered me out of the house two weeks ago, I came back tonight and we had it out. I killed her."
Dr. Kalman was called from the Harlem Hospital and the revolver was found to have discharged five shots, and one shell remained unexploded. He pronounced them dead, stating that the woman had been shot in the left temple, lung and abdomen, and that the man had shot himself through the brain.
The Deputy Chief, the Medical Examiner and detectives were notified.
Wilson told the police that he had heard shots earlier in the evening, but thought it only the packfire from an automobile.

LAFAYETTE THEATRE MANAGER CAUGHT IN LIQUOR TRAP
Bernard Burtt and Ethel Carrington, Cashier, Accused by Plainclothes Con of Offering to Sell
What amounted to an accusation of conducting a speakeasy in the box office of the Lafayette Theatre. 2225 Seventh avenue, occurred when Ethel Carrington, 25, cashier, 2283 Seventh avenue, and Bernard Burtt, 43, manager, 4374 Mott avenue, were arrested about ten o'clock Wednesday night by Policeman Roberts of the Sixth Division. They were taken to the West 135th street station house, where the girl was charged with selling liquor and Burtt was charged with possession, both in violation of the Prohibition law. They were afterward released. Miss Carrington in $1,000 bail and Burtt in $500 bail, for a hearing in Federal Court the next morning.
Arthur J. Francis Leaps From "Death Bend" at 110th St.
The pressure of business troubles is today believed to have been the cause of the suicide of Arthur J. Francis, 49, a real estate operator, 237 West 142d street, who leaped from the 100-foot elevated structure at Eighth avenue and 110th street on Saturday. Francis attracted thousands to the scene of his mad plunge from the railroad structure, which last year numbered eleven suicide victims at the same spot. The man's body narrowly missed striking a Fifth avenue bus, which was passing below "the "Death Bend" at 110th street.
In Francis's pocket was found a notebook containing one page on which was written the name of Mrs. Agatha Edwards of 297 Edgecombe avenue. The woman was called by police to identify the body and said that Francis was a relative. In his coat pocket the man had a written note which read: "Just the end of long years of worries—Arthur." Policeman Von Halle of the West 100th street station called an ambulance from Knickerbocker Hospital and Dr. Graham, who responded, said that Francis was instantly killed.
Bystanders said Francis climbed over the railing after a train had left the station on the northbound tracks. He dropped quickly to the street below.
Marie Lucas, 38, 249 Lenox avenue, well-known Harlem musician and for many years director of the Lafayette Orchestra, came home the latter part of the week from Bellevue Hospital, where she had been under treatment in the observation ward.

Him a Drink
They were arraigned Thursday morning before Commissioner Carter, who adjourned the case until tomorrow, when the testimony will be heard in Room 214 of the Federal Building.
According to Policeman Roberts, whose first day it was in plainclothes, he says he entered the theatre office and asked Miss Carrington for a drink. He placed the money on the desk, he said, and was sold a drink of whiskey. The cashier and Manager Burtt were then placed under arrest.
The Lafayette management, however, tells quite a different story. The incident, they said, grew out of the discharge of one Gertrude Smith, a cashier in their employ, whose alleged plot of revenge is said to have resulted in the arrests. To a reporter Schiffman said that there was liquor on the premises, but it was for private use only, just the same as any other man might have it in his home. Denial was made that it was sold.
He explained further that Policeman Roberts had told Miss Carrington that Burtt had sent him in to get a drink. Believing that he was one of Burtt's friends, she gave him a drink, said Schiffman. This resulted in their arrest.
Although the above Interview took place in the presence of Miss Carrington and Manager Hurt, neither of them made any statement.

Warner and Harvey Found Guilty; Dixon, McCann and Briggs Acquitted by Jury
The trial of New York City's only three Negro Federal prohibition agents, Richard E. Warner, Josiah Dixon and Jesse Harvey, came to a dramatic close yesterday afternoon in Federal Court, before Judge John Clark Knox and a Federal jury. Warner and Harvey were convicted. They will be sentenced Friday. Agent Edward McCann, white, and Arthur "Joe" Briggs, Harlem numbers collector, also on trial, were acquitted along with Dixon. All were charged with conspiracy and accepting bribes. In charging the jury, Judge Knox proceeded in the usual way, reviewing the case impartially, leaning to neither side. He did say, however, that what Major Heise did to Briggs was wrong, and had nothing to do with the case, except that it showed that the incident actually happened.

Dewey Brown Accused by "Baby" Goins of Stealing $500 Diamond Ring Admits Another Theft on Stand
Charged with larceny, Dewey Brown. 28. well-known Harlem comedian from Small's Paradise Cabaret, was held in $1,500 bail for trial before the Grand Jury when arraigned in Heights Court Friday morning before Magistrate Douras. Baby Goins, of the stage team of Bob and Baby Goins. 672 St. Nicholas avenue, accused Brown of stealing a $500 diamond ring from their apartment May 31. The Equitable Surety Company furnished bail for Brown. Grace Hail, Mrs. Goins' sister, testified that Brown took the ring when he was left alone in her sister's bedroom. When she returned Brown and the ring were missing, she said.
Mrs. Cannie Purnell and her son, Reginald, testified that Brown had not visited the apartment, alone, but that Reginald had accompanied him and, therefore, knew that Brown did not steal the ring. Evidence was presented to the effect, however, that Purnell accompanied Brown there the day before, and not the day of the alleged theft.
Under cross-examination Brown was asked if he had ever stolen a tuxedo from Leonard Harper, revise manager, or if he was ever

"It's the most damnable prosecution ever heard in a United States Court. It's the rottenest, vilest and lowest case I've ever seen, and I never hope to see another." said Defense Attorney Julius Hallheimer, addressing the jury in Federal Court Friday at the trial of the agents and Briggs. Agent McCann and Briggs are charged with collecting bribe money from Harlem speakeasy proprietors and giving it to the agents, who are charged with accepting the bribe money.
Gilpin's Mind Not Impaired
No Foundation Found for Malicious Rumor in Circulation
The tumor circulating in Harlem to the effect that the famous actor, Charles Gilpin, had become insane was found, after careful investigation, to be without any foundation whatever. It is believed that the tumor was started maliciously in an effort to impair the actor's reputation.
Rob Slater, manager of the Colored Vaudeville-Benevolent Association, 422 Bonox avenue, an intimate friend of Gilpin for over 25 years, said that not once had he any reason to suspect the actor of being unbalanced. "He's been the same old Charlie to me in all that time." Slater said, "although others may not understand his peculiarities."
Florence Cameron, 132 West 121st street, with whom Gilpin has made his home for several years, expressed candid surprise upon bearing the tumor and declared that she had observed no change in Gilpin at any time, other than his frequent periods of physical illness, for which she expressed much sympathy.

Before realizing the import of the question, Brown replied, "Yes." "Step down," said the magistrate. "----But I can explain that." Brown hastened to say. Magistrate Douris then sent the case to the Grand Jury.

The Government and the defense having finished their testimony, the summing up by the defense counsel was begun Friday afternoon. The case went to the jury yesterday morning.
At Thursday's session of the court, Briggs, when placed on the stand, revealed the torture he had suffered at prohibition headquarters, No. 1 Park avenue, at the hands of Major Augustus Heise, of Texas, assistant prohibition administrator. Briggs testified that the purpose of the persecution was to force him to give evidence against the three colored agents whom it is said, Heise presented being on the prohibition force because they were Negroes. Heise admitted in court that he gave Briggs the "third degree" via the "Chinese method of punishment." The direct result of this testimony was his suspension from the force without pay. This was followed by a general shake-down throughout the dry organization of the entire nation. The action also included the transfer of Chester P. Mills, New York prohibition administrator, and the tender of his resignation yesterday.
MILLS RESIGNS.
It was Congressman F. H. La Guardia who demanded Mills' complete removal on the grounds of allowing a brewery to operate illegally within fifteen miles of Times Square, of persecuting rabbits in their distribution of sacramental wines and of instituting a "freign of terror by undercover methods."
The high lights of the trial revealed startling conditions in the liquor element of Harlem, and no less colorful is the alleged conspiracy disclosed on the part of the dry chiefs to remove the Negro agents. On the other hand, the prosecution charged that the defense conducted an elaborate bribery conspiracy which seriously affected the efficiency of the prohibition forces.
The climax of the alleged counterplots began when Briggs was arrested on the streets on the night of December 13, 1926, and taken to prohibition headquarters, where Major Helse and Agent McDonald are alleged to have tied him hand and foot in a chair, and then tied a towel and rope around his head.
"Now tell me what you know about those damned niggers." Briggs said Heise demanded. He

tried to make Briggs turn informer.
"Ive never collected bribes for anybody in my life," Briggs said he replied. "If you're going to look me up for collecting numbers then go ahead, because I don't know anything about the other matter. "The major called me a damned liar."
The major then began tapping him on the head with a small stick, and threatened to twist the rope around the towel if he didn't tell. it was testified. The tapping on the head continued for about ten minutes, Briggs said.
When Major Heise took the stand he admitted using the third degree on Briggs by way of the "Chinese method of punishment." "I told him that if he didn't tell I would twist the towel," he said.
Heise kicked Briggs in the stomach and others beat him about the face and body, said Briggs, who declared that the punishment hastened from about 6 o'clock in the evening until midnight. Briggs also said that Major Helse told him that if he would "come through" with information against the agents he had been driving around in his car, there would be no prosecution undertaken against him. He was told that if he refused he would be framed with dope or a gun. Briggs said. Briggs stated that about midnight, Benney Richman (not an agent), a henchman of the Levy brothers, Bernard (Bud), Charles and Max, all self-confessed boot-leggers, was brought in the office, badly beaten, knocked through a window pane and badly cut. He fell to the floor unconscious, said Briggs.
Major Heise declared that Richman's beating was staged by prearrangement and consent of Richman. During his summing up to the jury, U. S. Attorney Lumbard revealed that Richman was not pushed through a window pane, but that McDonald pushed his elbow through the window, and Richman acted out the rest to make it appear real. Briggs, he said, did not see this as someone deliberately stood in front of him to shut off his view, the attorney said.
DR. NEARON A WITNESS.
Dr. Leo Fitz Neason, 228 West 137th street, testified that Brings

had been attended by him for palms in the head, but that he observed no abrasions, although there were other bruises about his body.
"Didn't you know." demanded Jack Wolf, Briggs' attorney, addressing Major Helse on the stand, "that you committed a crime when you ordered that rope and towel died about Briggs?" The major was silent while U. S. Attorney Lambard interposed an objection which Judge J. C. Knox sustained.
EDGAR GREY TESTIFIES.
Edgar M. Grey, feature writer for The Amsterdam News, testified that Major Heise wrote for him to come to prohibition headquarters and there offered to appoint him at once, on condition that he go out and obtain evidence against Harvey. Warner and Dixon on the bribery charges.
"Of all the agents you have," Grey is said to have told Heise, "why do you send for me?" "Because you are a black man and can work better among those niggers up in Harlem than a white man," Heise is said to have replied.
Grey returned a decisive refusal, he said, and left the office. Agem Charles Smith is reported as having been promised promotion to go out and get evidence against the agents.
Major Mills declared, when told of his transfer, "my transfer doesn't mean a damn thing to me; but I hate to see Helse let out without pay on the testimony of the type of man of Briggs." Apparently ignoring the fact that Major Helse has already confessed in court that he used the "third degree" method on Briggs, Major Mills had this to say: "Helse has my fullest confidence. I would not tolerate for one minute the so-called third degree methods and my attitude and Helse's also is well known to all agents as to truthful and absolutely correct evidence."
U.S. Attorney Lumbard had each of the four agents take the stand and submit to a rigid test of their daily report sheets in an attempt to prove their guilt. The weight of his argument before the jury rested greatly upon the agents' ability to supply him with important details concerning their
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 29, 1927
whereabouts at certain times, and as to their methods in making raids and arrests. The agents declared that on account of an elaborate lookout system by all liquor shops, it was almost impossible to get evidence of violations. Proof of ownership proved a serious handicap in their work, they said, because no sensible bootlegger would run a gin mill in his own name, and the false name could never be traced down. In spite of this, they managed to obtain a personal indictment against Bud Levy. Raymond R. McGee counsel for Briggs, told the jury that the motive for the Levy brothers' testimony against the agents, for the Government, was not only to save their own hides, but to save their brother, if possible, from the personal indictment.
William Goldfarb, 588 Elmsey place, the Bronx, who confessed to owning speakcasts at 563 and 482 Lenox avenue, where "Sheets" and "Doll Baby" were in charge testified that he had paid a bribe to the agents, also.
Defense counsel wrung from Goldfarb that he had been accused of receiving stolen jewelry, and that he had been selling liquor that very morning at his speakcasts. Goldfarb had accused Dixon of accepting "protection money" to forestall Federal rules on his places.
U. S. Attorney Lumbard sought to impress the jury with the alleged fact that Briggs took $3 a week from Goldfarb to protect him from Harvey, Dixon and Warner.
Henry C. Dietzel, another Government witness, proprietor of "Memory Inn," at Briarcliff, took the stand and testified: "My speakesties have netted me a profit of about $5,000 a year each." Because counsel interposed and forced him to admit that he had been finned in General Sessions for carrying a gun in violation of the Sullivan Law. Dietzel testified that he had paid $65 a month for protection and that on one occasion had paid $500 to a "little white man" meaning McCann.
EDITOR MOORE'S NAME MENTIONED.
Charles Reason, now serving a prison term, was brought from his cell to appear as a Federal witness. Defense counsel asked him whether or not Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age, promised to sign for him a recommendation for appointment to the prohibition forces upon his promise to secure evidence against the agents. He refused to reply further than stating that Mr. Moore was a good

friend of his and that he used his name as a recommendation. Reason is said to have a long criminal record, which includes charges of compulsory prostitution, rape, petty larceny, forgery, drunkenness and run carrying.
BRIGGS SAYS HE WAS ONLY
CHAUFEUR FOR AGENTS.
Briggs said that Harvey, Warner and Dixon employed him to drive them around from place to place at the rate of ten cents a mile, covering an average of 75 to 100 miles a day. From this he made a profit of about $6 or $7 a day, which he gave his wife, who owned the car, he said. The prosecuting attorney declared that
Briggs had admitted paying for his own gas and oil and could not, therefore, realize any profit, thus engaging him more tightly in the web of conspiracy.
Jesse Harvey, whom the prosecution characterizes as "The Boss" of the alleged bribery conspiracy, testified that he drove around in his slater's used Packard for which she paid $500. A juror then asked her profession and income. "A postal clerk at $2,100 a year," was the reply. This was not thought so well of by the prosecution, who sought to use it against Harvey when he addressed the jury.

pass to her husband an envelope containing any money in Tabbs' restaurant. Defense counsel declared that even if Warner had accepted any money he would not have chosen so public a place in which to do so.
Further testimony regarding dates, raids, records, injunctions and warrant papers was heard.
In summing up before the jury, Attorney Julius Hallheimer made an eloquent and convincing plea for the acquitta] of "innocent men grossly wronged." He pointed out that nearly every one of the Government's witnesses had a criminal record, and that American justice had stooped low enough to bring "a crook like Reason" from

his cell to testify against men of clean character. The Levy brothers—Charles and Bernard—passed the buck, he said, by saying that the other and not he had given the bribe to McCann.
"Since when when the Government apologize," said the prosecutor, "for bringing criminals to justice? These men have been convicted out of their own mouths, and their daily records also prove them guilty. We have not only the Government's twenty-two witnesses, but eighty exhibits to show that these men are guilty."
Attorney Wolf, counsel for Briggs, placed U. S: Attorney Lumbard on the anxious seat when, in summing up, he demanded to
know why U. S. Attorney Lumbard had moved to sever against Hyman Kasselle, white, Federal agent, who had declaned. Give me a separate trial. I don't want to be disgraced by being tried with those niggers." The prosecutor's silence made a profound impression on the whole court.
"Benny Richman testified that he was really beaten because he feared the Levys. Agents McDonald and Smith and Major Halse," said Attorney Wolf: "Gentlemen, how can you believe this man Briggs is guilty, when he chose to undergo torture for four hours rather than lie against innocent men? He had more courage than ten white men," he continued.

ton this year for the reason, as he stated, that it could not be held
heally in the State of New York.
Both the grand legal advisor and the grand exalted ruler admitted that they were not aware of such law. However, the judge ruled that under the circumstances it would be just as unlawful to call the convention again to Cleveland as it would be to call it to New York, and that therefore Cleveland could not legally entertain the 1927 convention.
Attorney Howard readily admitted that this decision was just and ruled that the Grand Lodge did not wish to hold the convention in any city with a law operating against the Negro Elks. The New Yorkers argued that the reasons were purely personal, and not based on desire to observe any state law.
Judge Clark also ruled that the Grand Lodge must pay back to the New York Committee monies spent in the interest of brining the convention to New York City in furtherance of the mandates of the judge last August in Cleveland, and this also the attorney for the defendants agreed to. Further parley brought the agreement to repay the New Yorkers up to $20,000 on pres-

ADVISES IMMUNITY
AGREEMENT.
After-listening to the arguments, which, while lengthy, were highly interesting, Judge Clark remarked that it would be a calamity to split such a large and powerful order as the I. B. P. O. E. of W. is today, and advised an attempt on the part of the defendants and the complainants to get together on some sort of an amicable agreement.
He said that clearly, as matters now stand, it would be unlawful to hold the convention in New York State; but, as the result of affidavits shown him from the excaled ruler of New York Lodge No. 1, white Elks, stating that they welcome the coming at this time to New York City of the colored Elks for their convention, and the statement of former Grand Excaled Ruler Harper of the white Elks, in which he advised a cessation of litigation in the various states against colored Elks, Judge Clark ruled that the New York Committee might have until July 22 to effect an agreement with the Grand Lodge of the white Elks that they

In addition to the legal committee of the New York Convention Committee, Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, Charles M. Hanson, and J. Dalmus Steele appeared for the New Yorkers. After the court proceedings had ended, a conference of the opposing forces was held which went into the early morning hours of Tuesday. One of the results of this conference will likely be the naming of Newark as the place for the next convention should the New York Committee fail to obtain the immunity grant. The selection of Newark would be in compliance with the advice of the judge that the contending parties agree on some place as near as possible to the City of New York where there exists no law operating against colored Ells.
JERSEY STATE ASSOCIATION SILENT.
Machine politics kept the question of the next convention out of the session of the New Jersey State Association held in Orange last Wednesday and Thursday. The proclamation of the grand exalted ruler's calling the convention away from New York and to Cleveland was not even discussed. The grand exalted ruler was present and was given a good ovation when he spoke.
After the election of officers for the ensuing year Thursday night, it was observed that every officer elected was with the Wilson administration, with the exception of A. B. Tabb, of Jersey City, who was re-elected treasurer, being the only officer re-elected.
And so, again, a long wait comes with the question still undecided as to where the Elks will meet for their 1827 meeting. New York members are confident that Judge Clark's ruling as to immunity will be met, and they feel more certain now than ever before that the convention will, after all, be held in New York City this year.

Charges Made at Veterans of Foreign Wars

Dealer Gives Hints on Summer. Pressure
With the arrival of warm weather, motorists should give closer attention to their tires, according to L. E. Kennerly, dealer at 41 West 144th street.
"Some automobiles owners," said Mr. Kennerly, have the idea that they should be given some radical change in the amount of air pressure in their tires in summer weather. Consequently, they reduce the inflation, in the hope of preventing the trouble.
"This is a mistake. Tires should be inflated at the recommended pressure the same in the summer as in winter. Maintenance of the proper inflation pressure is by far the most important element of the care.
"While there are several important factors affecting tire service, the rule that should be rigidly tested your tires with a reliable air gauge at least once a week and inflate them to the pressure recommended.
"Motorists should never let the pressure drop more than three pounds below that minimum, because rapid tread wear, fabric breaks and other troubles are sure to result.
When there are motorists who abuse balloon tires just because they fail to take into consideration that these low-pressure tires should be treated even more carefully as regards inflation than the high-pressure tires. Besides proper inflation, the following points should be kept in mind:
"Flats should be removed and repaired immediately; wheels should be kept in proper alignment; bent or rusty tires should be used of light metal chains should be avoided; tread cuts should be repaired promptly by a reliable vulcanizer; keep brakes properly adjusted; be careful that tires are properly applied, and drive carefully."
Admits Crime, Pleads for Other Prisoners
(AUSTREN News Service).
AUSTREN, Tox. June 20—In a message from the death cell at the state penitentiary, Lawrence Davenport, charged with the murder of Oswald Foster, again startled Houston officials by voluntarily taking responsibility for two crimes for which two other Houston men are serving penitentiary sentences totalling 62 years. The latest confession, made in the form of a letter to a local newspaper, appeals for the release of Willie A. Johnson, serving 52 years on charges of burglary and attempted rape in connection with an attack on Mrs. Flora Bell on Sept. 9, 1926, and Richard Engate, serving ten years, imposed when he was found guilty on a charge of rape.

Boston Yeggman Confesses Thefts
$25,000 Loot Found Under Floor of His Room
BOSTON, Mass., June 27. — Twenty-five thousand dollars in jewelry from three safes was the loot of Jerome J. Miller, confessed yeggman, arrested Thursday night at his lodging place, 202 Broadway, by Sergeant Frank Gilman and a squad of policemen.
After much questioning at the Milk Street Station it was proved that Miller had been implicated in the cracking of the safe at the Poning Jewelry Company, 357 Washington street, the Sarnoff-living hat store at 353 Washington street, a week ago, and the safe of the Oriental Tea Company of India street, two weeks ago. A search of Miller's room by Sergent Gilman disclosed 197 diamond rings and other merchandise, valued at $17,000. The cache was underneath the floor of his room. While making an examination of the offices of the Oriental Ten Company, officers found a handkerchief which had evidently been used as a bauage for a cut finger. Laundry marks on this bit of linen are the same as others found in the room.
Police claim to have found the place in New York where Miller purchased a drill and another where he secured the drills used to put holes in the safe doors. The officers have been keeping Miller at the Milk Street Station several days without giving out his description in the hope that they would be able to locate a companion, although Miller claims he was working alone.

Judge Jayne of Detroit Delivers Keynote Address at N.A.A.C.P. Meet
Says He Is Unwilling to Believe Members of Caucasian Race Have Had Their Sense of Justice Entirely Eaten Away
INDIANAPOLIS, June 27—Delivering the keynote address last Wednesday night at the opening mass meeting in Caleb Mills Hall of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which held its eighteenth annual conference here, Judge Ira W. Jayne of the Wayne Circuit Court, Detroit, and a member of the Association's Board of Directors, voiced his hope in the Neal's struggle for equal opportunity in America.
"I am not yet ready to believe that the majority of my fellow men, that is, my white fellow men, have had their sense of justice eaten away by the canker of race prejudice," declared Judge Jayne. "I believe that in the hearts and minds of a multitude of your fellow white citizens similarly situated, alike in everything but colon there is an abiding sense of justice which may be successfully arraised."

Harlem Beauty
For years I have tried everything to remove blackheads, pimples, muddiness, liver patches, bumps and blotches, which have marred my beauty and hindered my pleasures in social life, but without results. One day a friend who had just returned from abroad gave me a jar of this wonderful secret which she discovered in Paris. I tried it — the results were amazing — I could not believe my eyes — after a few treatments blackheads, pimples, muddiness, liver patches, bumps and blotches disappeared as if by magic. It restored my youthful freshness and brought out a clear, smooth, beautiful complexion.

The Lincoln Hospital School of Nursing will have a new $1,000,000 school building and nurses' residence, it was announced Saturday. Final plans have been approved by Borough President Bruckner of the Bronx, Commissioner of Welfare Coler and Mrs. William B. Given, Jr., representing the Lincoln Hospital Board.
The building will go up on the new site of the hospital at 141st street, overlooking the Sound. The entrance will be on the boulevard side and there will be formal gardens, flanked by a curving staircase.
Besides sleeping quarters for the student nurses, there will be a library, an auditorium with stage and seminary, and kitchens and dining rooms.
Lincoln Hospital was founded in 1835 as a home and hospital for aged and sick Negroes. Several years ago it began training nurses. Six girls were graduated in 1906, but the school has so grown that a nurses' home has been considered necessary. The hospital admits patients of any race.
New York Trade School Offers Scholarship
Announcement has recently been made by the General Society of Mechanics and Tradesmen of the City of New York that they are offering to any young man between the ages of 17 and 25 a scholarship at the New York Trade School. The trades taught in this school are as follows: bricklaying, plumbing, steam and hot-water fitting, electrical work, house painting and plain decorating, sign painting, carpentry, sheet metal work and pattern drafting, and printing. The school season, which is of six months' duration, begins on the last Monday in September. The classes are open to beginners as well as apprentices already in the trade. More complete particulars can be obtained from Ira DeA. Reid, industrial secretary of the New York Urban League, 202 West 136th street.

Mrs. MaBelle White Williams is attending the Eastern Region Industrials Girls' Conference at Prospect Camp, Central Valley, N. Y. Mrs. Williams is leader of the New York City delegation, composed of the delegates from the West 137th Street Branch and the West Side Branch Y. W. C. As. The fall campaign for the branch will be headed by Mrs. E. P. Roberts. At a special supper conference for leaders, held yesterday, Mrs. Roberts explained the campaign set up.
At the members' business meeting, Mrs. C. C. Saunders, general secretary of the branch, mentioned the fact that very interesting letters in acknowledgment of clothing sent to colored flood sufferers through this association had been received from various places in the flooded districts. Some of the ladies who were present at the members' meeting geographously contributed the sum of $6.85 to help pay for the barrels and for the lumber used to head the barrels in which the clothing was shipped. Fern Rock Camp opens July 2 with quite a large number of registrants. Miss L. M. Nelson, physical director, is taking a party of fifteen to spend Sunday and July 4 at camp. Others wishing to join the party may call the Y. W. C. A. for information.

To Be Left in Full Charge of Business
Criticisms have from time to time been made that white concerns are not broad-minded enough to use Negro employees in positions of responsibility and trust, and also it has been stated that colored girls are not employed widely by white or colored firms because they fall to make good. Nathan Zollinsky, electrical contractor, 2286 Seventh avenue, an established business of over twenty-seven years, has a different story to tell.
Miss Ivy Bailey has been in the employ of Mr. Zolinsky as bookkeeper for almost two years, during which time she has won the esteem and confidence of her employer. The proprelector leaves soon for Europe on a three months' vacation, and during his absence Miss Bailey will be left in charge of the firm with full power of attorney. Miss Bailey is not altogether a

"The length of my stay," says Mr. Zollinsky, "depends on Miss Bailey's success. If she reports 'Everything O, K. No need to hurry,' then we will stay longer than our intended three months."

THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT
JUNE. the month of rare days, blushing brides, and boy and girl graduates, passes tomorrow.
Vacation time is here. What are you going to do with yours? The same old thing, no doubt. Make resolutions to make over old clothes, re-read you favorite author's or authors' works, visit old friends, or write a novel.
But what are you really going to do? Enjoy a few hours of fishing, camping and touring; go to a few shows; sleep many hours, or "run" as much as ever.
No matter what you do, remember, vacation is the time to get away from your work—forget your cares, the routine of life, and return ready to "hit the line hard."—T.E.B.

Fresh meat should never be salted when frying it. Salt extracts the juice and hardens the meat.
A bottle of onion juice often saves the day. Keep one on hand!
Household Hints
Olive oil makes an excellent polish, for mahogany.
Hot vinegar makes a good sponge solution for a suit or dress of dark serge which has become shiny from wear.
Strong salt water is dandy for removing perspiration stains from clothes. Garments should be soaked in it before being laundered.

Hundreds Journey to Plainfield, N. J., to Witness Play for Cockburn Trophy
Hundreds Journey to Plainfield, N. J., to Witness Play for Cockburn Trophy
Games Staged Under Auspices of New Jersey Tennis Association, With New York Again Taking First Honors in Contest
By ARTHUR E. FRANCIS
PLAINFIELD, N. J., June 26.—The Cockburn Cup demonstrated its influence on high class tennis, when, in its second year of competition, it drew one of the largest gallery of fans, and the very best men, women and junior tennis players that New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York have to offer, in a two-day contest that sparkled with play worthy of a national championship.
The games were played on the three beautiful courts of the Plainfield Tennis Club, at Plainfield, N. J., under the auspices of the New Jersey Tennis Association, and the team representing the State of New York won the contest, and thus securing their second leg on the beautiful sterling silver trophy, donated by Capt. Joshua Cockburn, of New York City.
The interest, enthusiasm and brilliance of play covering the two days' play for the now famous trophy instigates the prediction of the instigator of the event, and the donor of the cup that it would act as an incentive to good tennis, stimulate interest in the fans, an create good fellow and spouse-mates for the players and fans of the three States.
Play started on Saturday, June 15, when players of the Pennsylvania Tennis Association representing that State squared off against a similar set of players of the New Jersey Tennis Association in the first series of matches to decide who should challenge New York, the present holder of the cup. New Jersey presented a formidable array, with their full strength on the firing line, and secured that privilege when they defended Pennsylvania. 8 matches won to 3 lost.
The Cockburn Cup contest provides for a test in eleven matches, as follows: 4 men's singles, two women's singles, one mixed doubles, one ladies' doubles, and one junior singles, the winner of six of a possible eleven matches being declared the winner of the contest; the two champions. States play against each other should play the holder of the cup.
The failure of the Gormantown Tennis Club to affiliate with the Pennsylvania Association this year no doubt prevented that State from having all of their very best players in line, but those that represented Pennsylvania gave the New Jersey team a fair chance than the world indicate. Among the outstanding events of the first day's play was the victory of Ken Worde, New Jersey's top ranking men's player, over the once famous Sylvester Smith, former national champion, from Washington, D. C., and who is now domiciled in Pennsylvania. Smith is a practicing dentist and finds little time for the game he has showed in his former brilliance in his initial effort since his retirement into the game. Champion Worde took the match in straight sets at 6-2, 6-3, 6-4.
Miss L. V. Junior of Pennsylvania, the guiding spirit and organizer of the Pennsylvania Association and whose effort made possible the representation of that state in the contest this year and others to follow, sprang a surprise on the gallery when she took Miss F. Marcellus, New Jersey champion, into camp in a contest featured by hard hitting both players. She won, 2-6, 6-2. F. Marcellus and Dawkins of Pennsylvania also surprised the New Jersey followers when they defeated the strong combination of L. Granger and McWilson of New Jersey in a long and hard five-set match that required fifty-five games to decide the winner. Dr. Watkins and Miss Lewis of Pennsylvania did the unbelievable when they scored for their State against Miss Marcellus and Miss Vaughan of New Jersey in sets at 6-3, 6-3, this however only gave Pennsylvania 3 victories to 5 for New Jersey, who, there, secured the right to challenge New York for the cup.
On Sunday, after a most disheartening, rainy morning, the sun beamed down from a clear blue sky over several hundreds of tents fans, who came to Plainfield from New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania in October 2006 to compete in the convenances. A great gallery and worthy of the matches played and the nature of the contest.
New York, without the services of their leading ace, National Champion Eyre Saitch, is touring the West and Southwest, and their second ranking ladies' player, Mrs. Estella Alston, who was un-

The Cockburn Cup demonstrated its when, in its second year of competition of fans, and the very best men that New Jersey, Pennsylvania and today contest that sparkled with play.
The three beautiful courts of the Plain-N. J., under the auspices of the New team representing the State of New Jersey their second leg on the beautiful by Capt. Joshua Cockburn, of New
able to play, retained possession of the trophy by the score of 7 matches, 4, after most determinedally over made in team competition between these two States in their various contests, antedating the Cockburn Cup matches.
New York started by taking both matches of the women's singles, when Mrs. Frances Gittens, who is fast coming to the very front line of women's tennis players, not only in the Metropolitan area, but in the country, showed a keen interest in defeating Miss O. Vaughan of New Jersey easily, at 6-1. 6-2, and Mrs. Emma Leonard. New York woman ace and No. 1 lady player, defeated Miss E. Marcellus, New Jersey champion, in a well-played game, full of fine driving, long rallies, and heavy plays, who have not seen a woman player of our race with a finer tennis head than Mrs. Leonard.
With two victories in the bag, New York made it four, when young Reggie Weir, New York, junior phenom, after losing the first set, gritted his teeth and sailed into young Herman Marrow, New Jersey junior ace taking the first set in the previews match of the day. Both juniors played extraordinarily sound tennis and showed improvement over their 1926 players, reminding the adult players of a day in the very near future when they will have to give way to youth and progress. Louis Jones of New York, who is just leaving his junior career before he took the starty, vicious strokes of W. Willis, New Jersey, No. 4 man, and turned them into winning strokes for the New York cause. The youngster showed a slashing, deadly net game on the crafty Willis that the latter could not solve successfully and went down to defeat in four sets, at 6-3, 4-6, 10-6. At this point, New Jersey called a halt and made their determined bid for victory.
Ken Worde, the New Jersey champion, tore George Smith, New York, into pieces with his fast-cross-court drives and crisp volleys at 6-1, 1-6, and 2, H. Butler, New Jersey, surprised New York when he dashed a brand of tennis that Edgar Gomes, New York, could not fathom. Butler won the first set easily, 6-2, many of his services being unreturnable, and came from behind in the second set at 5-1 to win at 5-3, match point being the most brilliant return of a difficult and sharp-angled drive of Gomes for a clean ace.
This gave New Jersey two matches, and Sol Worde, second only to his brilliant brother, Ken Worde, (Continued on Page 16.)

4, 5 and 6
Many are called, but few are chosen. The Metropolitan Association of the A. A. U. called many, but picked only 21 athletes as representatives at the national championships in Lincoln, Neb. July 4, 5 and 6. Fourteen of the 21 selected by the committee last week in its meeting at the Trinity Club won titles in the metropolitan senior outdoor championships two weeks ago at Yonkers.
Two track stars who were not selected, although they won their spurs by coming through victoriously at the senior meet, were Phil Edwards, unattached, and Ove Anderson, of the Finnish-American A. C. Edwards captured the half-mile event on Saturday, while Anderson crime in first in the six-mile run. In their places, the Metropolitan Association chose Eddle Swinburne and Willie Buckel of the Milrose A. A.
The committee refused to sanction the selection of Edwards and Anderson, mainly because they are not American citizens, and since they could not compete for a place on the American Olympic team the association officials could not see it to have them represent the metropolitan district in the national championship. Edwards is a native of British Guiana, while Anderson hails from Finland. Another issue considered by officials was the fact that both foreigners may possibly compete for their respective countries.
LINCOLN GIANTS OUT OF EASTERN LEAGUE N. Y. Tennis Players Again Defeat New Jersey
Keenan at the Bat
Jim Declareez Lincoln Giants Are Fighting for a Principle as He Withdraws From Eastern League
JAMES J. KEENAN, veteran of many a baseball war, is fighting again. This time Keenan has entered what he believes to be the biggest fight of his long and successful career. Last Wednesday in Atlantic City the baseball war between the club owners of the Eastern Colored League was declared when the other commissioners of the league told Keenan he must get rid of Alonzo Montalvo, the big Cuban outfielder with the Lincoln Giants. Keenan told the commissioners what he thought of them and walked out of the meeting. In an interview with a representative of The Amsterdam News, upon his return to New York, the owner of the Lincoln Giants declared that there was a principle involved in the fight being made on Montalvo. When he first signed the Cuban, Keenan asked Attorney Isaac Nutter, president of the league, for an opinion as to the legality of the transaction. Mr. Nutter's opinion was favorable to the Lincoln owner, but there was so much criticism from the West at the time, Mr. Keenan voluntarily decided to keep Montalvo out of his lineup to give the Western Cubans opportunity to give him work again. The Western Cuban Stars did not communicate with Montalvo and showed willingness to let the matter drop, but the other members of the Eastern League kept up an agitation and finally demanded that Keenan release the player.
Mr. Keenan says that his fellow commissioners should have been the last ones to fight him in this matter. If there was to be a fight it should have come from the West. He alleges there is a selfish motive back of the fight made against him in the East, and charges that Alex Pampez, owner of the Cuban Stars, and Nat Strong, owner of the Royal Giants, are back of it. It is a well known fact that the owner of the Cuban Stars does not want Cuban ball players to play with any team other than his own, or the Western Cuban Stars. Pompez is also closely allied with Nat Strong, long a rival of Keenan's in semi-professional baseball circles of New York. Strong, through his control of several ball parks in Brooklyn, wields a potent influence with the other teams in the league.
Several teams in the league have not been faring so well financially this season, and Mr. Keenan declares if these teams figure on Strong aiding them in their troubles they are doomed to disappointment. Although Strong has owned the Royal Giants for several years, he has never provided them with a home grounds. They are the hardest worked team in the league, traveling continuously throughout the season.
Mr. Keenan believes the league will need the Lincoln Giants more than the Lincolnes will need the league. Member teams that visit Protectory Oval for Sunday games get from $300 upwards to $1,000 per Sunday, and it is hardly likely that Mr. Strong can provide games that will pay as well.
The Lincolns already have games booked with the leading white clubs of the metropolitan district and negotiations are under way looking toward a series with Cum Posey's Homestead Grays. These games, with a post-league series with big league players, will at least make the 1927 season a success for the Lincolns. While doubt is being expressed as to whether the league will be able to continue in the face of poor weather, lack of home grounds and other contributing factors that have been against baseball so far this season, the Lincolns will go on under John Lloyd and Jim Keenan.
The Hilldales and the Bushwicks resumed their season's series at Dexter Park on Sunday and they continued nip and tuck the homesters nipping the Hilldales in the opener by a score of 2 to 1, and the Darby, Pa. aggregation tucking away the second game by a score of 5 to 2. Stanley (Lefty) Baumgartner, the former Philly and Athletic southpaw, did just what is chiefly expected of him by the Bushwick management in the first game, turning back the colored sluggers, most of whom bat from the south side of the plate, with five hits. He would have whitewashed the visitors but for a misplay by Carter in the sixth inning. It was fortunate for the Bushwicks that Bushgartner was in such fine form, for Winters, the Hilldale boxman, allowed only seven hits and the Kandy Kids were helped to one of their two runs.
Bill Hockenbury started for the Bushwicks in the second game, but was blasted from the mound in three innings. Joe Kaiser took up the pitching burden in the fourth and was hit hard in the last two of the five innings he worked. Hermann, a newcomer, toiled in the last inning and got by nicely. Campbell held the Bushwicks to nine hits and was power in trouble.
Hildaides Sew It Up Early.
The Hildaides got all that subsequently proved necessary in the first two innings of the nightcap, making two runs in the first and another in the second. Briggs' scratch hit, a pass to Warfield. Lewis' safe bunt, a double play on Thomas' hit in which Warfield managed to score and a double steal by Lewis and G. Johnson accounted for the pair in the first. Scott's single, Carr's on balls, Yancey's sacrifice and Campbell's infield hit tallied the Hildaides' third run.
The Bushwicks got both of their two runs and all they needed in the first inning of the opener. Buck Laf led off with a single and was forced by Eppy Barnes, Joe Weiss doubled, sending Barnes to third. Eppy tallied when Yancey fumbled Gerner's hit and Weiss scored on Kewple Dean's single to center.
The Hilldales did not get a hit from Baumgartner until the fifth inning, when J. Johnson led off with a single. They got their lone run in the next frame on Winter's single, Briggs' force out and Warfield's single to center, on which

ST. LOUIS SWEEPS CLEVELAND SERIES
ST. LOUIS. Mo., June 27 (By The Associated Negro Press)—The St. Louis Stars swept the four game series with Cleveland by winning the Tuesday and Wednesday contests. The Tuesday game was won by a score of 6-5 in ten innings and Wednesday's went to St. Louis, 10-8.
The four victories over Cleveland have run the local's consecutive wins to eight and the boys are fighting hard to make it at least an "even dozen" and then some. The pitchers are doing their stuff in a jam-up fashion, and the whole outfit is hitting when hits mean runs.
MONTALVO NOW WITH LINCOLNS
Two Homers Sunday Gave Giants Their Double Victory
Alonzo Montalvo, the stormy petrel in baseball circles this season, celebrated his return to the lineup of the Lincoln Giants, Sunday. June 26, by hitting two home runs (scoring 4 runs), in the first game of a double-hender with Santop's Broncos of Philadelphia. Montalvo's homers gave the Lincoln's a 6-4 victory and the local team won the other contest by a score of 5-2.
Although now out of the Eastern Colored League, the Lincoln did not appear one bit discouraged. In fact, they played with more pep than has been displayed at Protectory Oval this season. The Broncos, under the able management of Louis Santop, former star catcher and home run hitter, gave a good account of themselves and except for the mighty bat of Montalvo would have won the first game. They are being given a return engagement at Protectory Oval on July 4.
White Plains and Philadelphia Professionals are the attractions for Sunday, July 3. Negotiations are under way for a series with the Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh, which has Joe Williams, former manager and pitcher of the Lincoln Giants, in their lineup. They are expected in New York within the next three or four weeks.
Johnson's Stars Victorious
Chappie Johnson's All-Stars beat the Woodhaven club by a score of 2 to 0 and the Long Island City team by 7 to 4 in the double-header at Carpenter's Oval, Jamaica, on Sunday.

What Are You Going to Do Over the Fourth?
TURNED AWAY AT BACHARACH
Taxes Said to Be Due and Fans Met With Disappointment
ATLANTIC CITY, N.

Just before game time, however, the fans stood in groups and dis

cussed all sorts of rumors. Shortly after they were told to go to the box office and the admittance fee would be returned. This they did and the money was refunded. Failure of the owners of the "Bees" to meet terms of their lease on the park, it is alleged, brought about the temporary foreclosure. They did not cancel their obligation, which calls for the paying of taxes on the stands and field. Congressman Bacharach rents the park from the Robinson Land Company for $1,000 per year, and his lease calls for payment of taxes. He permitted the Giants to use the park gratis, providing they pay the taxes. There were all kind of promises, it is rumored, but no payments forthcoming. The congressman said he will permit resumption of play if payment is made, but he also added that he wasn't quite certain whether this would be done.

Navy's Part in World War Shown on Screen
"Convoy" Comes to the New Douglas Theatre Monday for Three Days
Unfolding the dramatic tale of the Navy's part in the World War, "Convoy" Robert Kane's special, next Monday at the Douglas, is being talked about in New York at the "Dig Parade of the Navy."
The plot, taken from John Tainier Pope's story of a girl's sacrifice, uncovering the German espionage system in the United States at the outbreak of the war, is to be one of the most tense and unusual vignals ever serged.
Dorothy Machallil, Loweil Sherman, Lawrence Gray, Juster Colbert, Jr., and Ian Keith head an impressive cast. Ernest Haller, best known for his work on "Sheila Dallies," "The White Lily" and several of Kane's latest productions, is in charge of the camera. Charles Magnus and Harry Griffin assisted Boyle in the direction and Robert Haas, treasurer of the Kane Enterprises, acted as art director. Actual scenes of the Battle of the North Sea between the commanded American and British battleadress and the German Grand Fleet constitute one of the main characters of the story.

"A Mother's Sacrifice"
Coming to the Douglas
Saturday Will See This Big Picture Offering Installed for Two Days
"White Flannels," the Warner production which comes to the Douglas Theatre on Saturday, has another great mother role for Louise Dresser, who plays poor Ma Brooka, the wife of a Polish miner. Ma Brooka has seen young college men at the homes of the mine operators where she goes to do day's work. Their natty clothes, their unhardened hands, their careless jaunty ways, even their speech so different from that she has been used to hear, fills her with the determination to send her son to college whether he will or not.
Frank Broksa, played by Jason Robards, is a boy who likes his job. He loves a village girl and has a pal, a miner, too, rough-and-ready as himself, but Ma wills that all this be changed. She learns when almost too late that education is not necessarily of schools and that it takes more than what she calls "white flannels" to make a gentleman.
"White Flannels" should be seen by all parents, but especially by those whose danger is the unselfishness which is so apt to breed its opposite in the children, for whom these same parents would often be willing to offer their lives.

LINCOLN GIANTS OUT OF LEAGUE
New York Team Out When Keenan Refuses to Lose Montalvo
By LLOYD P. THOMPSON.
Alonzo Montalvo, the Cuban outfielder who has a reputation of hitting 'em a mile, will play with the Lincoln Giants of New York. This was definitely decided by none other than Jim Keenan, the boss of the Bronx outfit, when at a meeting of the Commissioners at Atlantic City he turned a deaf ear to the requests of fellow owners to return the player to the West, Keenan accepted the alternative of being voted out of the circuit rather than relinquish his claim on the Cuban fly chaser who has became the stormy petrel of organized ball among Negro clubs.
Montalvo, who is accepted by all other club owners in the East as a player of the Western Cuban Stars, had trouble with Molina, his former boss, over a matter of salary. This difference stretched over the entire season of 1926 and Montalvo elected to stay out of the game the past season. The player, who is now in New York, signed a contract to play for the Lincoln's during the Spring. He evidently took a liking to the bright lights of the big town and this, coupled with the fact that Keenan talked business in "American Eagles," made Montalvo a tough customer for Molina to do business with here in the States.
Keenan was one of the men who formed the league back in 1922, and his club has been a member since the inception. Keenan's connection with the league, however, has been anything but smooth and only prior to the start of the present season he hurtled from the ranks with his New York entry, but reconsidered the matter and rejoined the league. Virtually all of Keenan's difference with the league appears to be the outgrowth of a feud that apparently exists between Nat Strong, the owner of the Royal Giants, and the Lincoln's mentor. The ousting of Keenan's club reduces the league to six clubs and the schedule committee will meet in New York Wednesday to draft the layout for the second half.
Jealousy of English Actors Would Bar "Blackbirds"
Florence Mills Says Federation Action Will Not Have Any Effect
From Manchester, England, comes a despatch dated June 26, via United Press, to the effect that Florence Mills and her troupe of "Blackbirds" have been too successful for their own good, which Miss Mills referered on her arrival in Manchester for a week's engagement.
Race prejudice and professional jealousy are blamed by the dusky vaudelley actress for the action of the British artists' federation seeking to ban her from the British stage.
"If 'Blackbirds' had not been a success, drawing big houses month after month, we would have heard nothing from the federation." Florence said. "It was because our act caught the public fancy while many all-white British shows failed to do so that the federation decided to turn against us." The colored star said she did not believe the federation's movement would have any effect.

Homestead Grays Trounce Zanesville, 25 to 3
Zanesville, O., June 27.—The effective swinging of the bludgeon by the mighty and furious "Jap" Washington. first-sucker for the Homestead Grays, conquered the leaders of the white Eastern Ohio League here Thursday afternoon. The hitting of Vic Harris featured, as he drove three homers, a triple and two singles. The-Zanesville defense collapsed under the heavy slugging of the bombarders from Pennsylvania. The Homestead Grays drove into the local boys so hard that they made a record of ten errors while the visitors had but one error. Oscar Owens pitched masterful ball, allowing the local team only eight safeties, while the Grays garnered 25 hits from Webb.

Search Shows Casting Director Figures Have Changed
And extremely beautiful. Seen begin some months ago for the first time, the event out of fashion with button-legged sleeves, key-wind watches and ankle-length skirts. They were needed for a sequence in Hector Turnbull's Paramount comedy, "Casey at the Bat," which stars Wallace Beery and arrives at the Lincoln Theatre Thursday showing a group of 1890 chorus girls going through their intricate steps.
Although more than fifty aspirants were interviewed and measured, only one eligible was easily found, Iris Stuart, the magazine cover model, who recently completed a supporting role in Bebe Daniels' "Stranded in Paris." The chief objection to most of the aspirants, it is said, was due to the size of their waists. In that "hourglass" figures were popular at the time, none of the waists to be correct could measure more than eighteen inches. And the casting office discovered that few modern girls have waistlines of less than twenty-four inches.
Another Alhambra Theatre Debacle
The Alhambra Theatre is going through a period which marked the early existence of many theatres catering to Negroes right here and scattered all over the country.
After trying twice within the past few months, failure crowned its efforts. The real story behind the whole thing is lack of the necessary cash to carry over the shows offered until the house gets a foothold.
Nothing new in that. Actors have worked hard in the past without receiving a dime and will do the same in the future. We all regret this state of affairs, which is brought about by those shooting at a mark without the right ammunition.
These white men come among us seeking fame and fortune with no backing behind them. Rescuing actors (and they are not all dead) under these circumstances has cost us almost a thousand dollars personally, to say nothing of the loss experienced by carrying advertisements for these fukes for which we never collect. Oh, well, we are too busy to worry about these things right now.

EGYPSY ANN'S "CONFIDENCES" LEOLA LILLARD'S "KEY TO CULTURE" CAN YOU TELL?
"A City of a Million Souls of All Races—Oldest City in New World"
CAME very near missing Marseilles, and if I had I would never have forgiven myself, to indulge in an Irish bull. When I asked at Nice for a ticket to go to Geneva, the clerk told me that there was no direct route, and that I would either have to go back to Milan or go to Marseilles, which, as one can see by the map, is somewhat out of the way.
Next to Constantinople, Marseilles has, perhaps, the highest percentage of Negroes of any European city. There are two black regiments, in addition to many other Negroes in the white regiments. Marseilles is the headquarters of a French Army Corps. There are also Negroes from Africa, the French and British West Indies, the United States, Madagascar and elsewhere. Many of them were brought here during the war, while others came as sailors. Colored folk are so many that one almost fancies himself back in a Negro neighborhood in America, except that a person of lighter complexion is rare.
THIS very annoying disease is quite common and unless it is treated properly it will recur from year to year. It is like a "bad man." known in different places and at different seasons by different names. Hay fever, June cold, rose fever, nervous coryza and summer catarrh are some of its names. The symptoms are, how- ever the same.
As can be imagined, then, Marsellese is an excellent place to study what we in America call race relations, and before I say anything on that I would like to say a word about the city itself. Marsellese, a city of nearly a million souls, is more than 2,000 years older than any city in the New World. Under the Romans it was known as Massilia, and was the great rival of Carthage. Readers of history will recall that it was once destroyed by John Caesar in his quarrel with Pompey. It is very old, too, in Christian tradition. Mary Mardalee and Lazarus, the one who was said to have been raised from the dead by Christ, are said to have been the first missionaries here.
Since humanity has been living in this spot for so long a time, naturally parts of the city present a very aged appearance. This is particularly true of what is known as Le Vieux Port (The Old Port). Narrow winding streets on which the sun rarely shines; buildings so aged in places that a network of props for them fill the street; fifty, dissolute-looking lanes, with clothing and bed linen in all stages of deterioration strung across them; odorous humanity warning over the rough cobble.

Hay Fever
This very annoying disease is less it is treated properly to year. It is like a "bad r" places and at different seasons by fever, June cold, rose fever, nerve catarrh are some of its names. The same
This disease is not infectious or contagious. It occurs in certain individuals who have an over-sensitivity of the mucous membrane of the upper air passages to the pollen of certain plants. In these people an irritation and catarrhal inflammation occurs in the nose, throat and eyes, producing symptoms of repeated sneezing, a profuse watery nasal discharge, itching of nose and the inner end of the eyes, a swelling of the turbinates or "swell bodies" of the nose, with difficulty for nasal breathing. It some cases a typical asthma of the bronchial tubes occurs.
This disease is caused by ceramic pollenis, which are blown by the wind, carried to the nose and shaled during respiration. Pollen in that is carried by insects does not cause hay fever. The olen of hay fever must be born by the wind to reach the mucous membrane of the nose.
Thus the beautiful rose and its radiant goldenrod, which are insect-pollenized plants, do not cause hay fever. There are four main groups of plants whose plants are responsible for this disease: 1 Agwood; 2 grass; 3 corn; 4 chenopod. In these groups are found the following ants and grasses:
June grass, from May to September. moothy, from June to August. Klop, from June to September. ragweed, from August to October; giant ragweed, from August to October; ack walnut, from March to ay; cottonwood, from April to ay; oak, from April to May; feet vernal grass, from April July; sheep sorrel, from May July; yellow dock, from May July; lamb's quarters, from June to September; cocklebur, on July to September.

Different locations have different plants, and it is necessary to know the season in which they bloom or when they pollinate. In this way the offending plant and its pollen, which is causing the hay fever in some particular individual, can be discovered.
In this part of the country, during the autumn season, the chief offending plants are the common ragweed and the giant ragweed. In the summertime hay fever is most commonly caused during the pollenation of the grasses, such as Timothy and June grass.
Before proper treatment can be given for hay fever, the offending and causative pollen must be discovered. Each individual patient is different. Some are sensitive to one pollen, while others are sensitive to some other.
Skin tests for discovering the pollen causing the trouble are used. This is applied to the skin of the arm or back. In this way a physician can discover the offending pollen and then proceed to desentize the patient by injecting under the skin, by means of small syringe and needle, a glycerinated extract of the offending pollen. This is called hay fever vaccine and is the only known specific treatment for this trouble. To be successful, the injection of the hay fever vaccine must be done at pre-seasonal times, about one month previous to the usual onset of the disease. In about fifty per cent of cases a cure can be established. In the others, a marked improvement is noticed. To those who have hay fever, I would say consult your doctor previous to the time it usually appears and let him give you this specific treatment

BEAUTIFUL MARSEILLES
Of course, there is also the aristocratic seetion. Three blocks away is the Cannebiere, one of the most famous thoroughfares in Europe, with its shops, not much behind those of Paris, its splendid hotels and its railway station with a marble stairway—as magnificent a one as I have ever seen.
On a mountain overlooking the city is the famous Cathedral of Notre Dame de la Garde. Worshippers at this church have an abundant opportunity of getting exercise, for after leaving the tramway one has a rocky climb of several hundred yards. And
Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
Is There a Time When a Girl Should Propose?
Lillie writes: "I have been going with a young man for five years, but he has never mentioned marriage to me. He doesn't want me to go with other men. He is lovely to me and very good matured, but he isn't as serious as he might be. I'm 25 and not getting any younger.
"Don't you think that I ought to drop a hint? What would you do if you were 12?"
Indeed, I wouldn't stop at drowning a hint. Lillie. "I ask him pointblank what his intentions are. Tell him that out of curiosity to you, you should be told now."
Think of all the good times that you have passed over for his sake. As you say, you're not getting younger, and as a woman older her chances, for marriage or sex, don't think that you are being forward in asking him his intentions. You're being sensible, that's all. If he founders around for an answer I'd advise you to look around for someone else. He's just plain thoughtless and it's up to you to put him to thinking. Indeed, no man could use up space and time in my house for five years steadily and get away with the main point.
Dear Emily,
I am a young man of 39 and would like to get acquainted with a sober-minded lady. Not one of these-minded ladies. Not one of these-minded ladies. But one who would be a home and can cook. I am alone in this world but for a little white one I want to meet a lady who would appreciate my life and would give her a home and would stay in it and make it happy. I shall look for an answer in The Amsterdam, Yours.
LONESOME.
Dear Lonesome:
If your intentions are marmony as they seem to be, I would suggest that you place an advertisement in the columns of the paper. Be sure to state your intentions.
Lots of luck to you.
Sincerely yours.

Dear Emery Ann:
Can you try to find me an older couple or person who could answer your questions? Or a boy child seven years old? If you for your expense, I'll pay you for your expense.

THE MARINE
Harbor Scene at Marseilles, France
the wind is so sharp that one is reminded of the land of which it was said that the men never had to use razors; all that was necessary was to expose their faces to the wind.
From this height one gets a splendid view of the city, with its reddish stone roofs, its winding harbor with its ships from all the ports of the world, and the Chateau DIF, made famous by Dumas in Monte Cristo.
Marseilles affords a splendid study in "place relations" for several reasons: First, the Negroes are newcomers—nor to the war there were almost none at all second at the time of writ- ing this there is employment, and we said, and I have given that competition for chief cause of ra- nances; and third, fruitful cause of ra the association of white women.
I shall proceed what I learned things, both by ob- inquiry.
I talked with no hundred Negroes with not less than time. The British and the Amer- iced seemed especially
out of his surroundings. I have no relatives.

1. It was sung by a slave woman from Florida who had been sold and brought to Alabama. Stephen Foster, credited with having written the song, heard of it, searched for the woman and, finding her in Florence, Ala. got from her the words as well as the plaintive tune.
2. The song was really the work of Richard Milburn, a Philadelphia Negro, and was first published in 1855. In later years the publisher, Septemus Winner, a white man, was generally credited with having written the song.

ing this there is much unemployment, and we have heard it said, and I have said it myself, that competition for jobs is the chief cause of racial disturbances; and third, that another fruitful cause of race riots is the association of black men and white women.

Why People Drown
(From an Editorial in the New York World.)
Out in Central Park Lake the other day Ernest Riedel, international canoe champion, nearly drowned when he fell in the water, because the hundreds who were watching him thought that his antics were only oolery. And surely this was not the usual state of affairs. Almost all of us can recall the aftermath of some incident in the water, with everybody having the same story to tell: "I had no idea he was in trouble; I thought he was only fooling"; "I could have reached him easily, but I never knew he was really going down"; and so on. Why is it that this ghastly comedy recurs so often in connection with swimming?
One reason, of course, is that pranks are so common on swimming parties that the members are soon in a giggly frame of mind, interpreting a gurgle and splash as a ruse to pave the way for a ducking. But another reason is that an accident in the water occurs in a way quite different from the way in which most of us have visualized it. A drowning man, we have often been told, goes down three times before he finally sinks; furthermore, we somehow have formed the idea that he does this in very leisurely fashion, probably holding up one finger to indicate that he is going down for the first time, two fingers the second time, and three fingers to indicate that the situation is really serious. Thus, when we see an actual drowning man we are either so dumfounded that all our co-ordinations are paralyzed or else we do not realize he is drowning.
For a man does not drown in the way legend has it, with a lusty call for aid and three distinct dives toward bottom. The first sign he gives that he is in trouble is when he rides low in
me, and quickly brought others when they learned that I was connected with the newspapers. With the exception of a few, all were about the most home-sick set of human beings I have ever met. They had come to Marselles on ships or had drifted there in the hope of finding one out. "Would you like to get back home?" I asked one Virginia in a state of rags equal to that of a Casablanca Arab. "Would I?" he replied; "If I could swim I'd start back tomorrow." Questioning about the attitude of the white people, I found after a time that I was getting
the water; he is having trouble keeping his nose out, and gives queer lurches to get higher. His bobbing at this stage is probably what has given rise to the belief that he goes down three times. His next sign is a hysteria of fright, when his eyes roll and his mouth emits curious noises. It is his actions at this stage which strike his friends as so comical. His next sign is when he goes down. When he goes down he stays down, and there is no X to mark the spot so that heroic rescuers can dive and bring him to the surface. And all this takes place in the time it would take to count five. The rapidity of it, indeed, is what makes an accident in the water so terrible: You look, you see a distorted, bobbing face, and then you don't see it—that is all there to it. It people knew the truth about the way things happen in the water, there might be fewer fatalities.

"North Africans Not So Well Liked," Writes Rogers
two different sets of replies. One was to the effect that the Frenchmen were jealous of the black men and the French women and would not give Negroes work; the other reply was that there was no color prejudice of any sort; that the French people sometimes treated them better than their own people; and that as to their association with white women, nobody seemed to trouble about it. Both the British West Indians and the Americans told me that they reported at the docks daily, and that sometimes they were given work which many times they could not hold because they did not know the language. Both also said they had found France a paradise while the money lasted, but now it was the other way about. "Too much misery here," said one—a very evident fact.
As to the French West Indians, all proudly said they had felt no prejudice and that the French people were less prejudiced than their own colored folk. Some of these were officers and non-commissioned officers in the white regiments. There is no color-line in the French army Negroes, Caucasians and Indo-Chinese being mixed in many regiments and in the military schools. White policemen, bartenders and beggars also told me that there never had been racial disturbances of any sort. In the barrooms I saw Negroes drinking at the same tables with white men and women; and the same in the dance-halls.
I saw pretty much the same in England, for the fact is that in these European countries, with their comparative absence of colored women, it is the white woman, just as in Africa with the absence of white women, the white men, if they are to have female association, must seek the black woman. As I said, I met some Negroes who said that there was race prejudice and that they had difficulty in getting work because of the alleged jealousy of the Frenchmen. In view of what I

THE etiquette of travel must not be neglected, especially among Americans, since it is a fact that almost everyone these days is something of a tourist. No part of the civilized world is too remote for many of us to venture. It's bag and luggage and off we go!
Somehow, we Americans feel that there is no other country in the world quite so wonderful as our own United States, and because of this belief many of us affect a supercilious disdain of all foreign countries, their forms and customs, but the world is becoming one great family and intercourse among the nations is increasing rapidly. It is, therefore, to one's advantage to learn to appreciate the characteristics of foreign countries and their natives; meanwhile the journey will prove to be more profitable and enjoyable. Every custom of towns and villages should be observed as much as possible. "When in Rome do as the Romans do" is the truest courtesy that can be observed by those who travel.
After a trip is planned, the next consideration is the wardrobe. It is unwise to overburden oneself with numerous clothes, especially since it is so easy to replenish the wardrobe, if necessity arises, in other countries. In fact, collecting articles of wearing apparel here and there en route adds much to the interest of the trip, and gives one something to display, among other souvenirs, upon returning home as representative of the shops in the towns visited. Many people spend their entire bankroll preparing a wardrobe to take away with them to a strange town and return home after the trip with nothing but a bundle of soiled clothes.
When leaving on a vacation trip, a woman should dress inconspicuously, wearing a neat tailored suit and blouse, small hat and comfortable shoes, omitting jewels and fancy ornaments. Her bags should contain the necessary changes of underwear, one emergency street dress, evening gown, sport outfit, shoes and hat to correspond, dressing gown, bedroom shoes and the necessary supply of toilery. Care should be taken to keep one's bags as presentable as possible. The number of suits and quantity of linen a gentleman takes with him depend upon the length of his trip and the social activities he expects to indulge in.

saw, I was inclined to discount this altogether until I discovered that those telling me so were North Africans, or Sidis, as they are called. The North Africans are little liked for several alleged causes, which I am told are: That they are none too clean; that they are as addicted to the use of knives as the Mississippi and Texas whites to the use of the rope and the torch; and also the fact that they are usually Mohammendans.
Say anything against a North African and you will get quite a hearing from the average white Frenchman. A British West Indian merchant, rather light in complexion, told me that he once had an altercation with a conductor, and how surprised he was to see the crowd took sides against him, shouting "Sldl" at him. Had the crowd known that he was not a North African, he said, its attitude would have been different. In short, the difference between the manner in which the North African is regarded and that in which the other Negroes are, is due not to a difference of color, but of culture. The North African is sometimes very light.
Of one thing I am certain: If Marseilles, as is, were in America, there would be many racial clashes, but here all is tranquil. There is not even an interracial society, or a collector of data, except myself. In similar places in America, where the Negro is a newcomer, even the better type of Negro would be refused service, as I have been in Utah, Los Angeles and Iowa. But here they eat in the best places. I met Earl Granstaff, a New York globe-trotter and musician, of whom I shall say more inter, and he was living in one of the best hotels on the Cannehlere. Granstaff is quite dark.
What is the cause of all this? Why is there trouble in America and none in France? In my next article I shall tell what many French people give as the reason, adding that of my own.

If the trip is a short one that requires only a few hours' ride, one should take his meal before entering the train and refrain from eating until his destination has been reached, if possible. If it is a long trip, one should be prepared to have his meals in the dinner at the regular eating periods of the day. It is a lack of good breeding to the seen eating throughout the journey as though it was the only and last chance to fill up. Candy or something as dainty, is not obnoxious, however, to the most cultured passengers.
Civility of the highest sort is possible when traveling in a train. One may be courteous to the gruff ticket-collector and polite to the bustling expressman—a "soft answer turneth away wrath"—and we usually find that a curt, peremptory order receives response that is no less curt, but kind and courteous requests invariably receive an immediate friendly response. "Thank you" is never superfluous and we should never fail to say it when some service, no matter how trivial, has been performed for us.

"Seems to Be Work Aplenty for 1927 Crop of Graduates"
FROM that day in June, 1827, when J. B. Russworm made his appearance upon the platform of the Bowdoin Memorial Chapel and stood with others of his class while the Rev. Aga F. Slater delivered his charge to the graduating class, the word "Commencement" has carried a definite significance to the colored youth. Russworm demonstrated his understanding of the word commencement by the struggle which he undertook in the interest of his people in the United States and in Africa, and his preparation for life, which he had received at that Puritan college in the heart of the State of Maine, lived with him during the long service which he rendered to the purpose of his people.

CASTRO ALVES was a poet of unusual talent, pathos and powerful imagination, and a dramatist of distinction. He was born in the province of Bahia, Brazil, in 1847. His father was a physician of note and his mother a woman of culture. He was a puerile genius, his talents appearing at an early age. He wrote his first verses at the age of twelve. In Sao Paulo he became the leader of his class in all his studies, and he was shortly afterwards hailed as the youngest poet of his people.

The colored youth of today, however, appear to have completely misunderstood the meaning and Significance of the term commencement. They too readily forget that which the early students of the race had tried at all times to remember: that commencement means a preparation for life work.
They are too much satisfied with the achievement of being graduated from college; they make this graduation the end.

1847-1871
The poetry of Castro Alves is soft, well tuned, dulcific, and falls peacefully on the ear when read with the emotions with which it should be read. Verissimo called him "Our first social poet, the epic writers excepted. He is the first to have devoted a considerable part of his labors not to sentimental subjectivism, which constitutes the greatest and the best part of our poetry, but to singing or idealizing social feeling, fact and imagination."
Castro Alves was a poet of love because he was of love himself. He wrote with all the ferventness of a youth and of a man born and ruled by passion when necessitated by force. Every line, almost every word, is a living mass of poetry. They are like the branches, the buds, the flowers and leaves of a great tree of poetry, making a magnificent whole, and rich and beautiful as nature itself, down to its minutest portions. In Castro Alves you will find many beautiful sentiments and much learning. . . . The heart of the Negro beats in his writings. . . . His piety—the plety of love and wonder of that profound admiration which the contemplation of the muse had inspired him with, and of that grateful love and trust which the manifestations of parental goodness everywhere had impressed upon his heart—these are, as it were, the living soul of his writings and the principles of imperishable vitality. . . . In his famous poem, Voices From Africa, written in Sao Paulo on June 11, 1968, he writes of his race:

Because of this fact, the question presents itself, what of their future?

"Negro Race Has Been Overfed on Optimism"
HOPE springs eternal in the human breast. Optimism is a natural stimulus. Pessimism paralyzes the one's powers. The man who loses hope, loses all. They are able who think they are able, says the poet Virgil. The doctrine of despair is the doctrine that destroys.
The philosophers and theologians of all time have bit upon some ideal consumption of things and have inspired mankind ever to hope for their ultimate fulfillment. The consumptive always feels that he is getting better. Mankind is prone to believe that all will be well by and by. We pray that sin may be banished from the world, and, although the race grows more and more sinful, yet we persist in the belief that our prayer will be answered.
But a shallow optimism leads to self-compulsancy. If the cosmic forces are working to the satisfactory fulfillment of the final wellbeing of mankind, then why worry our souls about pres-

future for them and for their race shall be one of glorious deeds and seasonable rewards. This is the only formula for the future, worthy of those upon whom fortune and the muses had smiled. Never in the history of the race has there been greater, or rather, equal need for men and women of fortitude; never before in the experience of the race has its internal organization been in such doldrums; never before such prime need for brains and of clear thinking as there is today, and never before has the race sent forth an equal number of trained youth.
From those who shall present their credentials to the work of the race this year are those who shall be called to the list of reserves, in the army of racial self-adjustment. They shall go forth to do battle for the Negro church, the Negro Bar, the Negro schoolroom, the press, the hospitals, the skilled trades, the houses of commerce and the like. They have arrived at a time when the battle lines are flagged; when the general and collective leadership of the group is to say the least, at its lowest ebb; when the white race has made the final resolve that this shall be a white man's land, and has organized and projected all manner of schemes for the subjugation of the black race.

realize the fierceness and bitterness of the struggle, and hence the high quality and standard which shall be required of them. They must not be fooled into the belief that the abstract and theoretical ideas which had been inculcated in them by their college instructors are true or carry any verity to the real life. A survey of the task which is before them will disclose that the general outlines of racial progress in the United States, all over the entire world, are badly indented; indented by the spears of incompetence, cowardice and spinelessness. An examination of the details of the formed lines of progress will leave them shocked and amazed.
Those who are at the high cliff of the passing generation are absolutely incapable of undertaking any further part in the struggle; their minds are able only to express and formulate inane and empty solutions to the problem; and when not so, their small jealousies and backdoor politics render them helpless in the fight.
Negro America today, for the first time in its history, does not even understand the alliments which beset it; confusion of purpose is to be found in high and low quarters; the social, economic and political efforts of the race would be laughable, were they not so tragic and perfectly pathetic. The fawning attitude of the leaders towards

I am neither a pessimist nor an optimist, but a realist, with optimistic exposure. The prophet who sees a little clearer and a little further than his fellow men is always accused of pessimism. It is always brohesying the evil things to come.
The generation does not wish to be disturbed in its smug complacency. It revels in its blindness to the future kindly given to forefend it from anxiety. The amble licks the hand just raised to shed its blood with a confiding and salutary blindness.
Some little white ago I addressed an organization of young colligians and startled them by urging them to open their eyes and glimpse the things that are impending. I cautioned them not to deduce themselves with the immee optimism that all is right with the world and the race. They must face things as they are and not as they have vainly hoped they ought to be. The Negro race has been overed on optimism. Religion has taught them that existing refuses are perfect and merely require patience to disclose their involved perfection.
Our white friends have preached the doctrine of hope, even when there was little foundation for it. Optimism is the philosophy of the weak-willed
The Negro has been, and is now, being exploited as a weak-witted race. He is ever admonished to hope and trust, watch and pray. He is admonished to stand still and see his racial salvation.
The poet advises that we learn to labor and to wait; but the Negro, with his weakness of will, is rather disposed to wait than to label for the great end in view. Let me now specify certain instances in which the Negro is overoptimistic:
I.
He has placed an overemphasis upon his accumulation of property. Through an imane optimism he deludes himself that he will gain equality with the withes through material substance. He fails lamentably to open his eyes to the plain facts of observation.
His gaining wealth, although remarkable as an isolated incident, is nevertheless but an incident of the white man's amazing material progress. The Negro but partakes of the crumbs which fall from the table of the white man's munificence. One or two white men command more of the resources of wealth than ten million Negroes combined. As valuable as the Negro's wealth may be within itself, yet it has little or no comparative or competitive power.
It has been estimated that the city Negro, especially in large centers, pays out half of his income for rent. Any fool can easily foretell the fate of such an economic predicament. Has the Negro, as a whole, bettered his economic condition by this mad cityward movement? Let calm judgment, rather than vapid optimism, render reply. II.
There is a pittable optimism about the decline of race preu-
SPECIAL ARTICLES
the so-called "big white folks" is the most humiliating and disgusting spectacle in the experience of oppressed peoples, and is fast becoming the stock joke among those other races who, though oppressed, are striving with dignity and resolve to rise above the plane of their oppression.
At the commencement exercises held in Howard University during the week of June 10—Dr. Mordecai Johnson, the new president of that institution of learning, sounded the clarion call for the upstanding manhood of the race. He brought vigorous applause from the hearts and hands of his hearers by declaring that "there can be no compromise with oppression; men must be men, and the leadership of any race should be in harmony with the avowed ideals of the race, if it shall be useful and effective.
This is truly the terms of the new and very necessary race leadership; this must be the resolve of those of the youth who have arrived upon the scene of racial activities at this commencement time.
In the early years after the Reconstruction the critical faculty of the leaders of the race was developed to a high degree, and this faculty for self as well as white race criticism served to raise the activities of those leaders to a high pitch of efficiency. Since then data is at

dice. We see not only the operation of hope against hope, but hope against the facts. Race prejudice clothed itself in five distinct forms of outward dress. In all of these modes it is strengthening with the years. Separate schools, jim-crow cars, disbranchissement, segregation and anti-miscegenation represent the legal forms into which prejudice crystallizes itself. All of these modes of discrimination have grown with the decades.
We are greatly deceiving ourselves with the vacuous belief that our present programs are adequate to the task against which they are applied. It may be that we are doing all that we can do; but it is also plain that our present-day procedure will not materially affect the general equation of things for any time which we can now foresee. We must needs encourage the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the Equal Rights League, the Y. M. C. A., the Urban League and all allied forms of endeavor; but if each of those operated separately or all conjointly for the next fifty years the race problem would be at the end of the next half-century essentially as it stands today.
We have been taught to believe that education in its various forms will solve the race problem. Said a distinguished social thinker and leader, "Industrial education will solve the problem," "Not so," rejoined the cock-sure adversary; "the higher education is the panacen." The lapse of time has revealed the fallacy of both philosophies. The race problem intensifies with the progress of all forms of education.
If every Negro held a diploma from Howard and Hampton and every white man a degree from Harvard and Boston Tech., with the heart and conscience untouched, the race problem would still persist, mayhaps with increased intensity. "But let us apply the sure remedy of coeducation, and the problem will be surely solved." This process has been tried in the North and West for two or three generations, with no very convincing conclusion.
Pessimism! No, never! What man has done, man can do: what other people have done, our people can do. But we must drink of the cup of which they have drunk and be baptized with the baptism with which they have been baptized withal. Let us have the patience to find the facts, the courage to face the facts, and the resolution to work out our own salvation, even though it be with fear and trembling. This is rational optimism.
"The Old Leadership Has Completely Broken Down"
hand to prove the essential emptiness of the thinking of the race leaders. Efforts to down criticism are now almost complete, and those who have refused to trim their sails have been dethroned. Lynching, distranchisement, segregation, unequal justice before the law, educational starvation and general intimidation are now the prime concern of the race. The minds which are entrusted with the removal or reduction of these standard evils are hopelessly inadequate for this task. See the record toll which these evils are taking of the life of the present-day American Negro, and the weakness of the present leadership is at once apparent.
Loud barking is not a remedy; ostentation and high-handed shutting off of criticism and discussion are also ineffective. In Harlem, as well as in other large cities, the disorganization and ineffective program of the race for self-improvement has

Of cynic's smile or taunting sneer,
Be courageous and persevere!
If falsely you have been accused,
Maligned and ruthlessly abused,
Be not discouraged even then,
But steel your will, and try again;
If innocent, with conscience clear,
Hold up your head and persevere!
If, when the enemy you meet,
You must from vantage-ground retreat,
Yield not e'en then unto despair,
But, for a struggle now prepare;
For victory is sure, and near,
If you'll have faith and persevere!
"Find a Trail or Make One"

WE WERE hunting amid a dense forest; the guide was a small Negro boy of about ten years. We had "bagged" considerable game and were ready to return home, but in the excitement of the chase we had lost our way. This youthful guide assured that there was no need to be alarmed and that we would be out of the woods before dark, a prophecy which was seriously doubted. After we had spent an hour trying to find a trail the little boy stopped, looked around and smiled; then he said laconically, "Well, we will find a trail or make one."
We followed the guide into the dense underbrush, where there was not the sign of a trail, stooping and almost crawling at times. Finally we emerged from the forest just as the sun was setting. Breaking his long silence the guide smiled and said: "Well, I told you we would find a trail or make one."
At this season especially apropos is the philosophy of this boy — "We will find a trail or make one"—and it is commended to the thousands of young people who during this season will be graduated from the various schools of the country and will go forth seeking their fortunes beyond the wilderness of diverse circumstances. intricate problems and innumerable difficulties.
In this country we have a number of excellent highways which began as Indian trails. Sometimes these trails grew up, the marks on the trees vanished and other trail markers were destroyed, making it necessary to search for these trails and reopen them. Going back farther still, there was a time before these trails were made and marked—when there were no trails, and those who crossed the wilderness in search of treasures had to make the trails.
The thousands of graduates of this season, like the thousands before them, will covet the inestimable treasures that lie buried in the mines that lie beyond the boundaries of their present

left the group admittedly helpless. The tough skin of the Negro has served it as a buffer in the past, but even that is slowly wearing off, leaving it bruised and bleeding from the kicks and knocks of the players of the white race.
Here and there arise a few men of backbone, foresight and resolution among the older heads of the race; but these are quickly and effectively beaten into submission by the opposition of black and white.
With this state of affairs, the arrival of the graduates from the length and breadth of Negro America is a heartening signal. Those of us who are submerged beneath the venal discipline of the worthless leadership of today, and who have still hope in the future of the race, must welcome the appearance of this vast army of the new and enlightened youth. To us this commencement time brings new hope and needed assistance.

derness which lies before them.
At some points they will find
well-defined paths; at others
there will be but dim trails;
then, in many instances, they
will be required to go where
there are no trails whatever. In
the latter cases, instead of yielding
to faint-heartedness and dis-
couragement, it will prove both
wise and beneficial to adopt the
philosophy of the little Negro boy: "We will find a trail or

It is creditable to find an open

humanity it means indefinitely
more to make a trail through the
wilderness of circumstances and
difficulties to the great open
spaces in the country of success.

Klan Will Again Attempt to Stage Parade on Fourth of July
Police Commissioner Warren Denies Hooded Order Permit to March — Memorial Day Klux Rioters Found Guilty in Jamaica Court
The Ku Klux Klan in Queens County, denied a permit by Police Commissioner Warren to parade in costume on July 4, will start court proceedings immediately to compel the issuance of a permit, George Herz, attorney of 26 Court street, Brooklyn, has announced.
Commissioner Warren made public the correspondence that had passed between him and Paul M. Winter. Field Representative of the Klan in Ridgewood, Queens, concerning the latter's request for a permit for 25,000 persons to march in Queens July 4 and wear the regalia of the Klan.
"Your request for permit for the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan to parade, contained in your letter of June 15, 1927, addressed to me, has been disapproved," read the letter from the Commissioner.

The Ku Klux Klan inmit by Police Commissioner on July 4, will start court propel the issuance of a permit Court street, Brooklyn, has a Commissioner Warren m that had passed between him Representative of the Klan cerning the latter's request to march in Queens July 4 and "Your request for permit Klux Klan to parade, contain 1927, addressed to me, has be ter from the Commissioner.
There was no attempt on Commissioner Warren's part to explain his reasons for refusing to grant the permit.
Discussing the matter with newspaper men later Commissioner Warren, said:
"I have no authority under the law to grant a permit for parades when I have reason to believe there will be disorder."
His remark recalled the disorder attendant upon the attempt of 400 Klansmen and 400 members of the Klan's auxiliary of the Klan to march in the Memorial Day parade.
Klansmen Found Gulley.
An echo of the riots caused by the presence of the Ku Klux Klan in the Memorial Day parade in Richmond Hill and Jamaica, on May 20 last, was heard in the Jamaican Magistrate's court Friday, when six men who were at the parade were given hearings before Magistrate Harry Miller.
John Kipp, of Hastings, and John Marcy, a Baptist minister of Yonkers, were held for trial in Special Sessions, after having a charge of felonious assault reduced to assault in the third degree against them. Ball of $1,000 was continued in each case. Harry Free of Place, Louis, Missouri, Thomas P. West, Philadelphia, Pa., were found not guilty of disorderly conduct and dismised, while Frederick Lyons of New Hyde Park and Thomas Carroll, of 476 South street, Jamaica, were found guilty of disorderly conduct and received suspended sentences.
Preceding the hearing, George W. Herz, attorney for the defense, requested that the courtroom be cleared of all witnesses. This order was granted by a matricate with consent of Assistant District attorney William G. Gault. Much confusion ensues throughout the jammed courtroom at this point as witnesses on both sides were leaving.

We have written entitle them to a place in a book not intentional on the part of the publisher, and it is well that the editor, foretelling and negating as many names which ought to be recorded an accurate reference book, and for the reason that those names such distinction. It is hoped that when these names are furnished in the works of those who have done nothing to desecrate, some of these biographies are given about themselves are as Wellington that can the editors of such information that they make a christine in submitted for inclusion. It is essential information, therefore, seems to be the Colored America have pursued: The "candidate" which is both fortaining the affliction and able to show them certain actualities, then he will probably give guidance; but to his friends amusing. Considering these limitations to fall about these names it is thoroughly race the race. It may not now be conscious but in time it will be so consolient for it, so that those who do not fill it a distinct want. The succeeding perils a less indispensable than keep themselves informed.

A Biographical Dictionary of Notable Lift Persons of Negro Descent in America. Edited by Joseph J. Boris. Illustrated. 500 pages. Vol. 1. Published by Who's Who in Colored America Corporation. 1133 Broadway, New York, N. Y. Price, $10.
In reading the foreword of Who's Who in Colored America one comes upon this passage: "The reader may miss the sketches of those persons intenational on the part of the publishers. Those persons either failed to respond to the request for data or could not be reached to make that explanation, for fearing and neglecting, as it does, much adverse criticism. For under each alphabetical list of biographical sketches there there are records to be recorded if they be regarded as inaccurate reference book.
On the other hand, there are many inclusions which ought to be omitted, and such distinction. It is hoped that when the 1928 edition of the work appears it will contain the names of those persons to deserve the space they occupy in the book. Moreover, some of these biographies are obviously padded. I know personally a number of persons treated in the book about the subject, and actually facts then I am the Duke of Wellington.
But what can the editors of such a volume do? It is an aburd suggestion is made a clandestine investigation of each person whose name information for inclusion. It is equally absurd to expect accurate detailed information from such persons, and therefore, seems to be the method the editors of Who's Who in Colored America have pursued: that of sending a questionnaire to each person to indicate, which is both fortunate and unfortunate. If he is without excitation and able to hold in check a lively imagination, to say nothing of actualities, then he will probably give honest, truthful answers in the questionnaire; but if he is the opposite of this, then the result will be just a bit
Considering these limitations to perfection, limitations which inevitably fall about works of this kind. Who's Who in Colored America is a splendid race, but who's not? Who's not in Colored America is the race he has. It may not now be considered indispensable by persons who are supposed to keep themselves informed on the details of individual race progress, but in time they will be aware that Colored America is wider public than those who do not know about it may know. As I said before in another place, Who's Who in Colored America, 1927, fills a distinct want. The succeeding volumes will certainly be considered valuable than the dictionary to persons who wish to learn themselves informed.

New York then took the ladder dues, and Mrs. Wade defeated Mrs. Marcellus and Miss Vaughan at 6-3, 6-4, and followed this up with a much-needed victory in the mixed doubles season and Mrs. F.

New Jersey, however, came back and, with L. Granger and McWilson, defeated K. Hughes and L. Powder of New York at 7-5, 4-6, 4-1.
New Jersey counted on the Worde brothers taking the men's doubles event, but Geo. Smith and L. Powder something to say in the matter, surprising the New Jersey players and fans by a well-earned victory at 6-2, 3-6, 7-4, giving New York 7 matches to 4 victory for the cup.
J. Mercer Burrell, chairman of the joint committee, then introduced President Lester B. Granger a candidate for the position, who made a few remarks and introduced Capt. Joshua Cockburn of New York City, the donor of the cap. Capt. Cockburn made a brief address and presented the cup to Capt. Spooner of the New York team. Chairman Burrell also presented a silver-plated plaque to the winning team from the New Jersey Association, the host of the contest. The games were ably conducted and the referee was Mr. E. Harold Hopper, one of New Jersey's most successful players. The 1923 contest will be held in Pennsylvania.

has just started.
Conduct Worth Emulating
AN INTERESTING SIDELIGHGT HAS come out of the trial of Richard E. Warner, Joshua Dixon and Jesse Harvey, prohibition agents, and Albert Briggs, in the United States Court, through the testimony of Edgar M. Grey, the wellknown contributor to The Amsterdam News. The four defendants are charged with conspiracy and accepting bribes; and following the admission on the witness stand of Major August Heise that "third degree" methods were used on Briggs to get evidence against the defendants. Major Heise, assistant administrator, has been suspended, and Major Chester P. Mills, prohibition administrator for eastern New York and Connecticut, has been transferred.
NOW to return to Mr. Grey and his connection with the case. Last fall Mr. Grey applied to Major Heise for a position as prohibition agent, but failed to get an appointment. Some time later he received a letter from Major Heise asking him to call at the Prohibition Headquarters, which he did on January 3. To quote from Mr. Grey's testimony:
"Then he (Major Heise) told me he was trying to clean up the department and needed my assistance. He said I was just the right type of man. He asked me if I know Agents Warner. Harvey and Dixon, and when I replied that I did, he asked if I knew they were taking money.
"I said I didn't know it and wouldn't believe it. He asked me if I really wanted the job and told me he would have me appointed if I would secure evidence against the three Negroes so that he could get them out of the service. I told him I would not do anything like that, but I asked him how he would expect me to get such evidence. He said, 'Well, you are a Negro and you could get more information among Negroes than a white man could.' I then told him I did not need his job, and I left his office."
WEWOULD LIKE to believe that the stand taken by Mr. Grey is the one which would have been taken by most Negroes under the circumstances, but unfortunately such a belief would not be borne out by facts.
ORDINARILY, when a white man wants to get a Negro out of a job, when he wants to accuse him unjustly of a crime, when he wants to impede his progress anywhere by defeating his purposes, he does not find it difficult to secure the aid of one or more other Negroes in putting the job over. Sometimes actuated by a worshipful attitude towards white people simply because they are white and he black; sometimes for money; at other times moved by jealousy or hatred, or both; and sometimes for almost no reason at all, some Negroes find it exceedingly interesting to pull another Negro down, especially
EDITORIAL PAGE
when requested to do so by a white man. EVEN AMONG so-called intelligent Negroes who are supposed to know better, as well as among the more ignorant classes who do not know any better, this form of race suicide goes on.
WE HAVE ONLY to look at the deplorable political situation prevalent in Harlem in nearly every assembly district districts in which Negroes oppose each other for office when told to do so by the white leader to see the veracity of the accusation. One of the defendants in the present trial under discussion has repeatedly opposed Negro leadership in his district.
THUS, Mr. Grey's testimony to the effect that he refused an appointment as prohibition agent when told that his job would be the securing of evidence against the three Negroes in the service in Major Mills' district and whom Major Heise wanted to see dismissed, is refreshing to say the least, and his action should be emulated in all Negro endeavor.
YES, we have no Negro Countess.

EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES
Enforcement—Third Degree
From the New York World.
Yesterday's newspapers carried reports of testimony given by Major August Heise, Assistant Prohibition Administrator for this district, in a trial which is now in progress in the court of Federal Judge John C. Knox. According to these reports Major Heise admitted using third degree methods on one Albert Briggs "to obtain a confession that would implicate Prohibition agents."
Major Heise, stocky, stolid and stern-visaged, testified without emotion that he had ordered some of his men to tie Briggs' arms and legs and then to tie a towel tightly around his head. He calmly described the towel feature as a "Chinese method of punishment." The only caution he had given his men, he said, was that neither the towel nor the ropes should be tied so tightly that they would soap circulation. Referring to the towel about Briggs' head, Major Heise said:
"I told him that if he did not tell the truth I would twist it."
This is an astonishing story. Perhaps it represents an isolated case. There is no evidence, of course, that "Chinese methods of punishment" are in common use in the Prohibition service. Nevertheless it is fair to remark that there is something about the Prohibition Law which seems to breed astonishing methods of enforcement with great ease. We have now had the admission that the Government employs "undercover" men, the admission that it cannot hope to enforce the law without them, the admission that it has operated "Government speakeasies" and the admission (by Gen. Andrews) that 875 Prohibition agents had been found corrupt and fired from the service. It was in running down more corruption that Major Heise showed himself so zealous. The introduction of Chinese methods only lends a touch of novelty.
Slavery Passing
From the Buffalo Evening News.)
The long fight against human slavery is nearly won. Sir John Maffey, Governor General for Great Britain of the Egyptian Sudan, reports that slavery there has been all but abolished. It exists now in only two provinces, Kordofan and Kassala.
The passing of slavery in the Sudan will aid in relieving the pressure on Abyssinia, whose borders march with it and which long has furnished an open market for the slave trade between the Sudan and the Arabian states of Asia. Since Abyssinia became a member of the League of Nations great pressure has been brought to bear on its government to end the shamful traffic there. The regent, Ras Tafar, now has under consideration a plan for the gradual liberation of the Abyssinian slaves. Much of the credit for the accomplishment in the Sudan belongs to the League, which has been working for the last seven years to rid the world of slavery. The manifestation of slaves in the Indian states, in other parts of Asia and most of Africa has come of the League's efforts.
The movement against slavery has made slow but steady progress. Few are perhaps aware that July 4 will mark the centenary of the abolition of slavery in New York State. Under a law enacted in 1817 all slaves in this commonwealth became freemen on July 4, 1827. Initial steps in that direction had been taken in 1795, under Governor John Jay. Vermont abolished slavery in 1777, and the Continental Congress and the constitutional convention of 1787 adopted measures against traffic in African slaves. By 1829 slavery was stamped out
Alcide Delmont, French Deputy From Martinique, to Visit Here This Fall
France is known as the land of no color line. Just why it is so and what is France's colonial policy, so far as her black citizens are concerned, it will be the privilege of colored Americans to hear from the lips of a distinguished colored Frenchman. Deputy Aleide Delmont, who is planning a trip to the United States in October of this year, Deputy Delmont, who belongs to the highest Masonic circles, is one of the leading lawyers in France. Three years ago, while practicing law in Paris, the people of his native land, Martinique, nominated and elected him to the French Parliament, unknown to him. He has had a brilliant career. Arriving in France from Martinique without friends or fortune, he entered the law school of the University of Paris, where he won the Prix Palliat. Soon after he took up practice in the Palace of Justice he was sent out by the government to take charge of an important case in Martinique.
Two recent cases of his that attracted much attention were the Sikh case and the suit brought by his colleague, Deputy Dignege of Senegal, against Rene Maran, author of "Batoula," both of which he won.
During the war Deputy Delmont enlisted as a private and was soon after promoted to a heutenancy. He was awarded the Croix de guerre with several citations. Always taking a keen interest in people of his race, whether in Africa, the West Indies or France, he devoted himself to the interests of the black men in France after the war, and was rewarded for his services with the Cross of the Legion of Honor.
Deputy Delmont is founder of the French Colonial Institute, a member of the Central Committee of the Rights of Man, an organization that takes up the cause of the oppressed peoples everywhere: the author of several important books on law, and former counsel to the Paris Bar Association—a position he was forced to relinquish because of his large practice and his duties in the Chamber of Deputies. After the war he ran on the ticket with Minister Painleve for Deputy for the Paris district, receiving 45,000 votes. At present he is one of minded attempt is made to apply to life the notion that there is only one side to every question." As in the days of the Crucifixion, so today, the South has only one cry to make for the Negro "Crucify him."
Very little of humanity, and its progress, does this "wise" theologian know, if he thinks "there is no other impediment in the world today so hindering human progress as an intellectual habit of mind fostered by and exemplified in debate, and argument, and controversy."
Does he not realize that the narrow, prejudiced desire of the South to keep the Negro suppressed and "in his place" helps to stifle their progress and thereby keep themselves down, too. We cannot hold others down without remaining down our selves.
Just as the South handles the Negro question today, and has in the past, so would it also handle all other questions that should be open to discussion, and an exchange of ideas. There are none so blind as those who will not see.
Solution for the Race Problem?
GEORGE W. MITCHELL, in his article "Pursuit of Race Color," appearing in the latest issue of the North American Review, tries to show how the universal brotherhood of man is about to come about. First the yellow races will overrun and absorb the Ando-Saxon races of Europe; while the brown races of the Orient will become anal-gamated with the black races of Africa. The subjugation of the yellow race by the brown-black race will next proceed in Europe and America; and the whole world will be of one race and one color. Then there will be a universal brotherhood and a lasting peace. Something for Nordic America to ponder about and worry over.

How Florida Handles the Mob
TAMPA saves the life of a
citizen from the mob by ultratforce, employing every available means.
What was done very recently in Tampa, Florida, to protect a prisoner—a self-confessed murderer—white, of course, can be done in every other State of the Union to protect a black prisoner, provided, of course, the desire to do so is strong enough. The following excerpts from leading American newspapers on the incident are quite interesting, to say the least.
The Savannah News says: "it will be a long time before Tampa has another riot." True, indeed; for the five persons who met death and the thirty-two others who were injured will serve as exponents of the real power of the law. "A little hot lead and a measure of cool courage will have more effect on a mob than months of preaching and volumes of threats" states the Columbus, Ohio, State Journal. The result of the Tampa riot proves this statement conclusively. The fact is, as usual, the mob "had murder in their minds, and stern measures were necessary," according to the commanding officer of the militia.
If such sperm measures were employed against mobs, innocent as well as guilty men of color would be spared the brutality of mob violence, and the whole nation escape the shame and disgrace of massed lawlessness.
Kansas City thinks "the Tampa incident gugges, also, that the mob spirit is not simply a manifestation of racial antagonism. The victim sought in this case is white." Yes, and as the Norfolk, Virginia, Pilot, states: "That circumstance may have had something to do with the strenuousness with which Florida authorities defended him against summary execution, but it ought to have nothing to do with it."
The keen interest manifested, and the commendations received by the Tampa officials from both northern and southern dalles, may be of as much effect toward checking lynching as the anti-lynching bills that Congress refuses to pass.
Hypothetical Cause of Prejudice
TYPICAL Southern narrowness and prejudice are clearly portrayed in the issue recently taken by a Southern Nordic preacher against "The Fornin's" policy of presenting subjects in the form of debates. This "intelligenza" believes "that no issue has any more sides than a mathematical problem" and further says: "There is no other impediment in the world today so hindering human progress as an intellectual habit of mind fostered by, and exemplified in, debate and argument and controversy."
Surely this is the reasoning of either an immature mind or a mind warped and distorted through prejudice. For all fair-minded, freedom-of-expression-loving people must agree with the editor of "The Forum" when he says: "The Forum believes that any given body of facts may give rise to not one nor two only, but often to twenty different and absolutely true interpretations." No Northerner continues himself to the singleness and narrowness of his own opinion on an important issue, but is ever ready and open to the judgment and expression of others. Freedom of thought and expression has always characterized the North. It was through these mediums that the abolition movement was agitated.
Some writer said: "And what precipitated the greatest tragedy of history?" Was it debate or the absence of it? The trial of Jesus is the best possible illustration of the fallacy of the one-side-to-the truth idea. Pilate showed himself ready enough to get at the truth, but the theologians would hear of no debate" much like our Southern preacher. "The sequel showed that the victory was not to the truth, but to the loud-mouthed, and this is the inevitable result when even the most sincere and pure-
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
Last week a dog died in front of the premises. 257 West 143d street. The Board of Health was immediately advised by telephone and mail, yet a week has elapsed and the remains are still rotting on the street.
On Monday, I went to P. S. No. 5, 140th-141st street and Edgecombe avenue, to bring my son home from school, and there I saw the remains of two dead animals, one directly beneath the window of the kindergarten pupils and the other on the Bradhurst avenue side.
Thousands of files could be seen swarming over the remains and the odor was so disagreeable that it could be noticed from quite a distance. Surely it is time the Board of Health took some action.
Respectfully,
[Signed] HENRY G. RICHARDSON.

(From His Recent Address at the N.A.A.C.P. Conference)
RACIAL SEGREGATION is synonymous with Race Problem. Where there is no segregation, there is no problem; where there is less segregation, there is less problem; where there is more segregation, there is more problem. The amount and the meanness of the problem varies exactly with the extent or the degree of segregation.
Everywhere in the United States there is some segregation; therefore, everywhere in the United States there is some race problem. The difficulty of the problem, like the amount of segregation, varies from the hypocritical pretenses at equality in Boston to the frankly degrading and insulting spirit and arrangement in New Orleans.
Segregation in the churches must logically anticipate segregation in heaven. In New Orleans we have segregated graveyards—for segregation alive calls for segregation dead. So easy are the steps toward hell.
There are millions of mulattoes in this country who would never have come into existence if it had been necessary to prepare for their existence by contract and agreement. There is no preventive of amalgamation. There can be only checks upon it. And the most effective check is equality of the races, the strictest equality in law. If the female of the weaker group had the right to enforce ceremonial and legal marriage whenever natural marriage were forced upon her, then race prejudice, caste pride, and economic interests would tend to discourage the natural unions.
Colored Americans are often accused of "wanting to be white" when a better analysis would show that what they really want is the freedom and privileges of white persons. They seem ashamed to be colored, when, in fact, they are simply afraid to be colored. A civilization that puts a handicap on being colored and a premium on being white shows itself to be an arrant hypocrite when it says: "You ought to be proud to show that you are colored."
Self-defense is a more primary instinct than pride; pride is most abiding when it is a method of self-defense. Any act or attitude that is self-destructive will not long be supported by pride.

Whatever good thou hast designed,

The task perform without delay.

If thou wouldst fight against the wren,
Go forth today with courage strong.
However fierce the conflict be.
And numerous the enemy.
And win the fight,
Ere comes the night.
Regrets, sorrows and copious tears.
Cannot alone for wasted years:
So go thou forth, in word and deeds
And minister to human needs.
Ere fades the light.

The Drama
Negro Drama to the Fore
Samuel French, Inc., New York and London publishers have just signed a contract to publish "Plumes," a one act play by Georgia Douglas Johnson. This play received first prize in the recent "Opportunity" magazine contest. Appleton & Co., New York, are bringing out two one-act plays by Negro writers in a collection called "Fifty More Contemporary One Act Plays."
"Blue Blood" by Georgia Douglas Johnson and another play by Willis Richardson of Washington, D.C. are in this collection. Both these writers have won prizes offered by the "Crisis" and "Opportunity" magazines. Boston, New York. Washington and Cleveland have put some very interesting play programs and the call for them is becoming instantiated and strong. Negro life is intensely dramatic and an intelligent handling of the universal in appeal is proving most attractive and popular.
