Rogers First to Interview Countess Pepito di Albertini "I've Got the Finest Husband in the World" She Says "YES, we're married," smiled Miss Josephine Baker, or rather the Countess Pepito di Libertini, in answer to my question as to whether the report of her marriage was true. She added: "And I've got the finest husband it the world." She turned to the count, slight, handsome, dark-featured, and twenty-six. There were three of us, Dr. Charles H. Johnson of Atlanta, on a tour of Europe with his wife; Spencer Williams, well-known composer and myself. The count received us with a bow, full of grace old elegance, and apologized for his English. "Yes," he replied, after our congratulation. "I'm the happiest man in the world. I saw Josephine for the first time in the Polles-Bernre and I was so smitten with her amber beauty that I arranged for an introduction." He continued with a twirl of his slight musache: "She is a wonderful girl at 11; I am proud to be her husband," am going to devote the rest of my life to making a great artist of her." The countr, it developed, gave up his position with the Italian government to be with her in Paris, he is also an artist. Man Held on Two Burglary Charges Woman Heard Noise in Apartment and Called Police Arraigned on two charges of burglaries in Heights Court Thursday, William Jarvis, 28. 9 West, 136th street, was held for the Grand jury by Magistrate McQuade without bail. Jalil White, of the same address, accused Jarvis of burglarizing his apartment on June 5 and stealing a quantity of clothing, a radio and other things, valued at $250. while Josephine Hamilton, 116 West 144th street, charged that Jarvis robbed her home of a wrist watch and a fountain pen valued at $152. Early Thursday morning Mrs. Hamilton said she heard noises in the apartment. She went to the window, screamed, and blew a police whistle. Policeman Beverly of the West 136th street station hurried to the apartment and found Hamilton hiding under the bed. Beverly said he found the stolen articles in Jarvis' possession and a further search brought out several pawn tickets for clothes.

Roberts has been arrested, but the woman was not implicated. The force of the charge ripped a hole in the kitchen ceiling and pieces of the can crashed in every direction, but the kitchen was not wrecked, as reported. The sound of the detonation aroused the neighborhood and Policeman Philip Armstead of the West 135th street station, who was passing, rushed to the scene and found Robertson on the kitchen floor writhing in pain, with Roberts bending over him trying to aid him.

"I met the Count just nine months ago, one night up in Montmartre. No, it wasn't love at first sight. I did think he was a handsome fellow, and when I heard he was a count, too, I was thrilled. He came to see me at the theatre three nights later, and one of the first things he asked me was whether I was married. "I said no, and his reply was a proposal. I didn't take him seriously then, but he was really in earnest, for the next time he had his mother, with him and again asked me to marry him. Then I knew he was in earnest, and suddenly it occurred to me that I did love him. We got engaged and he gave me this ring—." She displayed a handsome engagement ring on her finger.

WARNER AND HARVEY GET 13-MONTH SENTENCES IN PRISON Three Weeks' Stay of Sentence Granted to Permit Convicted Prohibition Agents to Appeal Case "Thirteen months in Atlanta Penitentiary." This was the sentence imposed Friday morning by Judge John Clark Knox in the Federal Court upon Richard E. Warner and Jesse Harvey, two Federal prohibition agents, who were recently convicted of conspiracy and bribery by a Federal jury. Josiah Dixon, the third member of New York's only Negro dry trio, was found not guilty, along with Agent Edward McCann, white, and Arthur "Joe" Briggs, Harlem "numbers" collector, who had been accused of being a party to the alleged conspiracy. At the request of Born Paul, counsel for Harvey, Judge Knox granted the defendants a three weeks' stay for sentence to permit Attorney Budd and Julius Halk --- --- (Continued on Page 2) SECTION ONE The incident was described by Dr. Albert Lynch, roommate of Dr. Maynard, who was present at the time. Dr. Marshall, he said, was seated at another table when Dr. Maynard entered the dining room. Shortly afterward, Dr. Marshall sharply addressed Dr. Maynard, demanding to know why he had rung his phone before 7 a.m. in the earliest hour calls are permitted. Dr. Maynard explained that he rung for Dr. Rappaport, a white interne and roommate of Dr. Marshall, to give him orders in an urgent case. Dr. Marshall maintained that Dr. Maynard rang twice, thus greatly annoying him following a sleepless night of difficult work. "I rang only once and that was after 7 o'clock," Dr. Maynard is said to have replied. "Also I will ring whenever it is necessary and whenever I please. And remember that you are not in some other institution but in Harlem Hospital, and you cannot do as you please, right or wrong." The white interne then picked up a glass of water from his table and dashed it into Dr. Maynard's face. The house surgeon was on his feet instantly and is said to have approached the interne threateningly. Hot words passed between them, but no blows were struck, said Dr. Lynch. "What are you trying to do?" asked Dr. Marshall, "start a race riot?" it is reported that a physical encounter would have precipitated very grave consequences. Realizing this, Dr. Maynard resumed himself, and told Dr. Marshall that he preferred taking the matter up with Dr. Fleming and the board of trustees. A detailed report and affidavit of the charge is said to reveal many conditions of race prejudice and resultant inefficiency, and it is said that an investigation will be asked of Mayor Walker, if necessary. According to Dr. Marshall, he had been up all night on a case and was angered by the early ringing of the phone, which broke his rest. Reaching the dining room, he determined to have it out with Dr. Maynard. Dr. Marshall's attitude is said to be strong anti-Negro. "Prior to coming to Harlem Hospital," said Dr. Marshall, who was a resident obstetrician, "Dr. Maynard and I were very friendly. When we were both taking our internship at the University and Bellevue Hospital and Medical Coi (Continued on Page 2) TENSE RACIAL FEELING IN HOSPITAL White Interne Threw Water in Face of Resident Surgeon (Continued from Page 1) lege. I often assisted him with his work and studies." Dr. Maynard, however, declared that Dr. Marshall often excluded him from the room on obstetrics cases, especially if the patient was white. They had also been fellow-students at New York University and Childs Hospital, he said. Investigation disclosed that Dr. Maynard had been assaulted once before—about a month ago—in the superintendent's office and in the presence of the superintendent. He dropped the charge, it is said, because he desired no malignant attitude on the part of the white physicians with whom he had to work and study. Dr. Maynard, in passing the competitive examination for internship in April, 1926, took first place and received the first appointment, which covers a period of over two years. He was recently appointed house surgeon. Rumors of race discrimination and professional negligence have come from the institution from time to time. The most recent and patent instance occurred when a colored woman applied there for immediate admission to the maternity ward. Dr. Tobias Ginsberg, white, is reported as having told the expectant mother that her visit was premature and to return home. However, before the woman left the hospital her child was born in the hallway. According to an eye-witness who is a hospital physician, Dr. Ginsberg, upon another occasion, is said to have slapped a colored woman patient because she refused to take a stomach tube. Among the nurses, dietitians and other employees of the institution, there is said to exist a strong racial feeling which reduces their efficiency to a marked degree. Miss Ager Boozer, president of the Harlem alumni, an organization of senior graduates, stated that although she understands that racial feeling and conditions at the hospital are not what they should be, one could not point to anything definite. "I intend giving the matter close attention," she said, "but regret that I cannot get the support of many of our nurses. They will not stick together."

TWO and one white doctor on the house surgeon's staff, the white internes, it is said, resent taking orders from their Negro superiors. This condition, it is reported, often results in gross negligence to the patients. There are sixteen internes at the institution, the majority of whom are white. One of the most skillful and accomplished surgeons, and a visiting physician at Harlem Hospital whose name is withheld, was interviewed relative to conditions there. He expressed sincere regret for the present racial feeling. "Do you advocate an all-Negro staff at Harlem Hospital?" he was asked. "No," came the decisive answer. "I once thought so, but observation has changed my opinion. The biracial policy is the best. We haven't enough medical men skilled in its different branches to have a really efficient all-Negro staff. An additional reason would be that a strictly Negro policy at Harlem Hospital would defeat our own ends. If we barred white physicians from Harlem Hospital, we in turn would be barred from other institutions here, where only by attendance can we get the superior training that we need. Also, by working in Harlem Hospital beside expert white physicians, we can improve our own training." REGISTERED MAIL RIFLED; TWO HELD Joe Green, 33, 19 East 128th street, was arrested Thursday night as the man who several days ago stole sixteen registered letters from a post office sub-station, and Marie Ross, 32, 362 West 127th street, was held as an accomplice. Detectives say they entered the substation and while a clerk's back was turned, took the letters.

GOODYEAR DX01007N --- --- NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY. JULY 6, 1927 SchoolSegregation Outlawed in N. J. SchoolSegregation Outlawed in N. J. (Continued from Page 1.) colored children who had been put in a special class at South Toms River. Negro residents of Berkeley and Dover Townships. Ocean County, had protested against the segregation of their children. So intense was the feeling aroused by the action of the county school authorities that the case was carried to the Supreme Court, and was brought to the attention of the Legislature by Senator Alexander Simpson of Hudson, who submitted a bill prohibiting such segregation. The measure died in committee and the decision of the Supreme Court had not yet been handed down. A few days ago a demurrer, filed to upset the court petition, was dismissed as being without merit and the school authorities were told to present such defense as they had, not later than July 1. Defending their action in the proceedings before Dr. Logan, the school authorities argued that the exclusion of pupils from the Toms River school was because all were from 1 to 3 years below normal and so unruly and insubordinate as to constitute at menace to discipline The parents of the children attacked that contention and declared that the building to which their pupils were sent was inadequate and dangerous to their health. Dr. Logan did not agree that the building was in any way improper. He said that its facilities were better than in some of the other schools. Ruling on the exclusion Dr. Logan said: "In the Commissioners opinion the exclusion from a certain school and segregation in a school by themselves under a colored teacher, of all those tuition pupils in a certain district who are colored, together with a number of colored pupils from another district, inevitably raises the presumption that color is the peculiar characteristic constituting the basis of exclusion. Such presumption is not rebutted by proof on the part of the school board of certain mental or temperamental characteristics of the colored pupils, unless it is also proved that such characteristics are peculiar to such colored pupils and in no way shared by the white children who are left."

ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 4.—Miss Daisy Westbrook, convention secretary of the National Association Warner, Harvey Sentences Stayed (Continued from Page 1) helmer, counsel for Warner, sufficient time to prepare an appeal. Ball at $3,000 each was continued. At Friday's session of the court, U. S. Attorney J. Edward Lumlahir Jr. repeated; "Gentlemen, let it be distinctly understood that race prejudice has not entered into the prosecution of these men. They have not been convicted because of their color." Attorney Budd preceded his request for a stay of sentence by stating that it was his opinion that the jury's verdict should be set aside. "In passing sentence, your honor," said Attorney Hallheimer, "there are several things I would like to call to your attention. These men have been called the brains of the conspiracy, and the jury apparently reached its verdict on the strength of this assumption. There is no proof, however, that they operated secretly or in any other manner to form a conspiracy. Furthermore, why should these men be singled out for punishment simply because they possess intelligence a little above the other men who were tried with them? If the other defendants were set free, so should these men be set free. "Your honor, I will ask you to take into consideration the character of these men. Several men of high standing and reputation, occupying prominent and important positions in the Government service, have testified to the high calibre of these men. I would also have you consider the responsibilities these men have toward their families. "The work of Warner and Harvey in the Prohibition Department was of the highest order, as testified by the Commissioners to whom they made their reports; and it was never proven beyond a reasonable doubt that these men ever accepted bribes or entered into any conspiracy." "On the contrary," said U. S. Attorney Lambard, "we have proven that numerous complaints against these men have been received from time to time. Yet, in spite of these complaints, they continued in their practices, for which they have been convicted by their own testimony." "I think we should adhere to the facts." Attorney Hallheimer calmly but firmly replied, "and should not proceed on that which is merely assumed. Complaints against these men meant nothing. There isn't an agent on the prohibition force who hasn't had complaints against him, and these men are no different from others in that respect." The attorney then pleaded for lenency. "I regret," said Judge Knox, "that all five defendants were not convicted, for I believe they were all guilty. The jury, however, has seen fit to convict these two and free the rest, and for that reason I believe they are due some consideration. "Regardless of what we may think of the prohibition law, we are charged with the enforcement of it. These men were charged with the enforcement of the law, and they did a mean and despicable thing when they accepted money to influence their judgment. "With so many speakeasies running openly I cannot escape the conclusion that both prohibition and enforcement agents are linked with the illicit traffic in liquor. "The matter of sentence often differs among judges, as some would impose a sentence of six months for an offense for which another would impose a sentence of one year." Judge Knox then sentenced Harvey and Warner to thirteen months in the Atlanta Pententlary, granting them a three weeks' stay of sentence to allow their attorneys to prepare an appeal. 90 in the sun 2 in the shade Cooling off with RUNKOMALT.

S. Dstrict Attorney James G. Cotter c Chicago, and Mr. Cotter's two friends, a wholesale furrier of New York and his lady friend, both white, were denied admission to the Cotton Club, Lenox avenue and 12d street, Sunday night, on the grounds they were told, that the Police Department prohibited the admittance of mixed couples to the club. Kid Griffin, the colored manager of the club, said the proprietors had been warned by the Police Department not to run a "black and tan" resort, and, so that reason, the white and colored party could not be admitted. The Cotton Club has heretofore been criticised for its apparent segregation policy, as it has been said colored patrons are not welcome, although it is operated in a colored neighborhood. Practically all of its patronage comes from downtown whites, although the revue and the employees are colored. ALT.

"HARLEM Mrs. Alice Dunbar-Nelson Says Negroes Here Are Behind Other Cities Tells Forum Audience That People Everywhere Look to Harlem for Leadership - Editor Fortune Refutes Statements "The Negroes of Harlem are far behind other cities in race progress," declared Mrs. Alice Dunbar-Nelson of Wilmington, Del., in an address at the forum of the St. James Presbyterian Church, last Sunday afternoon, and this community is tailing to live up to its greatest opportunities, she said. She said that strangers coming to Harlem from other sections are surprised at the lack of race enterprises conducted in the community, and said that this was a collection on the race. Mrs. Nelson spoke on "Organization and Cooperation" and came here at the invitation of Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman, president of the forum. She was presented by Mrs. M.C. Lawton, former president of the Empire State Federation. "We must organize for our own relief and to be able to meet many of the great emergencies that concern us. Our lack of organization was seen in the recent flood of the South when we were too poorly organized to respond to our need." She said that our lack of organization is due to lack of cooperation, and that was one of the things that was keeping back the progress of the race generally. "The race is looking to Harlem to point the way. The Negroes of the country feel that Harlem ought to lead the way, and if Harlem does not take a forward step in organization and co-operation the race in other sections will not have the courage to start," she said. A brief open discussion follows of the address. T. Thomas Fortune, the noted race journalist, took exception to the address of Mrs. Nelson relative to the situation in Harlem. He said that the Names of Harlem were to be commanded for the progress that they are making along a great many lines. He said that Harlem is comparatively a new community, and that the race has not had the time to adjust itself. He said that it was unfair to place the responsibilities of the race on the shoulders of the people of Harlem. White . Slice Officer Suspended Refused to Pay Taxi Bill of 50 Cents to Harlem Chauffeur Barrick Flanagan, white, 1177 West Farms road, the Bronx, a patrolman of the Fourth Precinct, 18 Clinton street, was suspended from the police force following disorderly conduct charges in that he refused to pay a taxi bill of 50 cents. The interesting incidents leading up to this climax began when Flanagan, in plain clothes, and a woman companion got in a taxi at 116th street and Manhattan avenue and alighted at 122d street and Eighth avenue. According to Wilfred Collomore, the taxi driver, will West 122d street, Flanagan released to pay his bill. An argument ensued and Flanagan struck him in the face, the driver said. They began fighting and a crowd gathered. Flanagan reached back into his pocket for his gun, said Collimore, and they clinched. A colored man in the crowd rushed up and wrested the gun from Flanagan, it is said. The patrolman's woman friend then exclaimed that Flanagan was a cop. Cop or no cop, Collimore subdued him and took him to the West 122d Street Station, where he reported the incident, and the stranger also gave Flanagan's gun to the police. Collimore said that a plain clothes man offered to pay the taxi bill and asked him to drop the charge, but he refused. PREACHER HELD ON FALSE PRETENSE CHARGE GALLIPOLIS, Ohio, July 4.—The Rev. J. S.

Cor. 125th St. and Lenox Ave. --- Party Got Rough; Man Leaps Three Floors Jumping from a third-story window Friday night to escape a free-for-all fight, William Davis, 26, 322 Edgecombe avenue, suffered a fractured left leg and lies abed in Harlem Hospital. A party is said to have been in progress in an apartment at 16 East 134th street. Following a good time, which was being had by all, someone began to spoil the fun with an argument. The diversion turned from pleasant and loud conversation to bottle throwing and fisticuffs. Prefering a good run, or, rather, leap, to a bad stand, Davis hurtled through the back window into the yard below, landing with a heavy thud. Patrolman Ward of the East 120th street station arrived and sent in a call for the ambulance from Harlem Hospital, where Davis was treated by Dr. Guttman. When Ward arrived at the apartment to investigate there was nobody home. Girl Says She Was Raped by Italians Identifies 3 of 14 Who Attacked Her — Trio Only three of fourteen Italians charged with rape, were arrested and tried, following an alleged assault at Spring and Elizabeth streets upon a fifteen-year-old colored girl, recently from Jacksonville, Fla. The girl was seeking employment on the East Side last week at the time she was attacked. The three offenders, discharged by Magistrate Simpson in City Magistrates' Court, Friday, were John Pinaldo, 1103 Glen avenue, Brooklyn, his brother, James Pinaldo, 252 Mulberry street, and Peter Cirigliano, 6 Spring street, all white On Sunday afternoon, June 26, about four o'clock, the girl says she approached one of the men at Elizabeth and Spring streets, and inquired the direction to Avenue A. "I don't know where that is, but I think it's in Brooklyn," she says the man replied. "If you're looking for a job I can get you one." She says he then took her into the Spring Street Stables, Inc., on the same corner, and when they got inside two other men grabbed her and carried her to the top floor, where she saw eleven other men. The girl stated that each of the fourteen men assaulted her and left her there. Coming down to the street she saw two policemen whom she told of the incident. She was taken to the police station, about a square away, where she again related her story. Policemen and a number of detectives accompanied her back to the scene of the alleged crime, and she pointed out three men as her assailants. They were arrested. The girl was then placed in care of the Children's Society and examined by their physicians, who found her to be "not in a serious condition." On Friday morning she retold her story to Maxistrate Simpson, who discharged the Italians "because there was no corroborating witnesses." The Children's Society discharged the girl Saturday. She lives in Harlem. CLEVELAND PREPARES FOR ELKS' CONVENTION CLEVELAND, Ohio, July 4.—Immediately upon receiving the proclamation of the Grand Lodge officers awarding the twenty-eighth annual convention of the Grand Lodge, Grand Temple and Juveniles to Cleveland, James F. Greene, exalted ruler of King Tutt Lodge No. 389, Lean G. Brown, Daughter Ruler of Mary B. Talbert No. 257; Charles S. Smith, exalted ruler of Cuyahoga Lodge No. 95, and Anna Craighead, daughter ruler of Glenaara Temple No. 21, J. B. P. O. E. W. under the direction of District Deputy W. W. Williams appointed a General Committee to arrange for the entertainment of the convention which convenes here August 21-26. Freed NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 6, 1927 LAGS Outlook Brightens for N. Y. Elks Outlook Brightens for N. Y. Elks Exalted Ruler Holds Conference With Convention Following the negotiations that took place between Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson and the grand legal advisor, Perry Howard, with the officers of the local convention committee after the court action in Newark last Monday, the indications are that the convention will be in New York City after all. Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, chairman of the General Convention Committee, stated Saturday that at no time was the outlook brighter for an amicable settlement of the question than the present. Some of the conditions include the posting of a bond insuring the non-arrest of the head of the order or of any of the grand lodge officers in New York on a charge of violating the Grattan Law and the providing of police protection for the grand lodge during their entire stay in this city, together with the local committee assuming a major part of the legal expense incurred in the Newark trial. While the local committee feel that none of these terms are necessary, they are willing to go to great lengths rather than disappoint New Yorkers with the spectacular Elks convention. Programs, posters, and other printing matter will be out next week for distribution throughout the country. These have already been approved by Mr. Wilson, one of the terms of the settlement. Dr. Oliver said that a definite announcement would be made some time this week. $1,000 BAIL FOR WOMAN.

DANDELF—ITS CAUSE AND CURE Brushing snowy flakes from the shoulders removes the evidences of dandruff, but such action does not remove the cause of dandruff. This is in itself a subject that interests every lover of beautiful hair. Bobbed hair and still shorter hair makes the elimination of dandruff furrier more effective, and diseased scalp and promoting hair health are simple matters. Here is a method which has helped thousands of others: First a cleansing, rehilting shampoo, then as thoroughly flashing. Next a complete drying, followed by a liberal application of snowy-pure hair dressing. (As the creator of Golden Brown Soap and Hair Dressing I know what they will do to promote healthy, lustrous hair. Ask your druggist about them.) Too early baldness often is caused by doctored hair, by following the above treatment regularly. Even after such a treatment though, the scalp should be enlivened by finger massages. The manage hair roots are nourished. The hair grows thicker, healthier. Just a little daily care... just a little time... these help create hair liveness.

All Welcome With the I.B.P.O.E. of W. With the I.B.P.O.E. of W. By Charles Magill HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON The Marching Club of Henry Lincoln Johnson Lodge entertained on Monday afternoon at the Colony Club, 254 West 135th street. The band will give a concert and reception on Thursday night, July 14, at St. Mark's Hall, in West 135th street. The band is led by Prof. Herbert Finley. After the next initiation, which will be on Monday night, July 20, Henry Lincoln Johnson will have a reception of more than 1,900. On the next regular meeting night, Monday, July 18, the installation of the officers elected in June will be held. Installation of the officers elected at the last election of Brooklyn Lodge will be held at the home, 1068 Fulton street, on Monday night, July 18. The regular meeting, scheduled to be held July 4, was cancelled owing to the holiday. The newly elected exalted ruler, Joseph M. Washington, accompanied the queen deputy to the Rockaway Lodge of Far Rockaway, Tuesday night. William Green, loyal knight of Brooklyn Lodge, was also in the party. The picnic committee, of which William H. McFarland is chairman, will meet again on Sunday at 3 p.m., July 9, at the headquarters.

Manhattan Lodge increased its membership last Saturday by 110, when that many candidates were inducted at a special initiation held at Imperial Home, in West 129th street. Andrew T. Mitchell exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge, presided. In operation in this lodge has been in operation in this lodge is still present. Manhattan is out for a 3,000 membership, and has about achieved that number. The installation of officers will occur on Thursday night, July 14, after which the exalted ruler announces some important changes in the personnel of the appointive man. Manhattan's Marching Club meet Thursday for its regular meeting, Fred Williams, chairman of the recent reception the club gave to the Rentissette group, reported that the club was a success. The club is now arranging for the purchasing of new uniforms for the band. The idea of one big lodge and one big temple for Manhattan Island, meaning the consolidation of Imperial, Manhattan, and Monarch Lodges, together with their temples, which has been lately talked of much in New York, will likely never become a reality. The two first mentioned lodges seem to be in accord with the idea but, as March Lodge, it can be definitely stated here, is not. Much is grossed just now with a building program that it expects to put over. With that, the minds of the members, the idea of consolidation does well. Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, exalted ruler of Monarch Lodge and the chairman of the General Convention Committee that has been working to bring, and then entertain the convention in this way, has had an unpleasant job on his hands. More relations begin to point more and more for the ultimate success of New York, credit for the success can begin to be apportioned. Much could be written concerning the work of that committee. But to the untiring efforts the honest and sincere put up he just a few of the members who credit for New York's victory. Installations of the suburban lodges will occur as follows: Liberty, of Jamaica, Thursday night, July 14; Queensboro, of Finishing, July 5.

Zion Churches held in Avery Mission Temple, this city, Friday, June 24, a report of the joint commission on organic union of the A. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion Churches was read by Dr. John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A. M. E. Church and secretary of the joint commission. At the conclusion of the reading of the section referring to the name of merged church organization — the United Methodist Episcopal Church — a prolonged storm of applause was given by the more than 2,000 persons attending the meeting. The tentative plan for the Episcopal districts was roundly applauded, as well as suggestions for allocation of officers for the first four years of the proposed organization.

NEW YORK CITY LIGHT The report of the commission called for combination of the eighteen Episcopal districts of the A. M. E. and the twelve districts of the A. M. E. Zion into a total of thirty Episcopal districts for the United Methodist Episcopal Church. It also arranged for a publication board, calling for three publishing houses. These to be located in Philadelphia, Pa.; Charlotte, N. C., and Nashville, Tenn. The report provides for three weekly church publications—The Christian Recorder. The Star of Zion and another to be located in the southwest, possibly Dalles, Tex. and to be known as the Southwestern Herald. PLAN TO GO TO LOCAL CHURCHES It suggests the appointment of a special commission to thruout the legal problems in connection with property rights. The plan calls for the organic commission's report to be sent first to the board of bishops of each church connection for consideration, and then with their approval and revisions to the General Conferences of the A. M. E. in Chicago and the A. M. E. Zion in St. Louis in 1928. Following the action taken in these conferences the ammended and approved plan is to then go to the various annual conferences, quarterly conferences and local churches in the two church organizations for approval or rejection. Should a majority of these annual and quarterly conferences and congregations approve the plan, a special General Conference will be called possibly in 1950 to work out the final details preparatory to the organization of the first regular United General Conference in 1922. STUPENOUS COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION This movement is regarded by many as the biggest concerted organization effort ever undertaken by Negroes. Fully one and a half million members will be involved. The transaction will affect over 10,000 individual church organizations representing a real estate of nearly $36,000,000, and involving the handling of nearly $7,000,000 annually. The territorial scope of the or DR. SCADRON'S ganization is world-wide, including the United States, Canada, Mexico, South America, Africa, and the islands of the Sea. The proposed merger is one of the biggest pieces of legal business ever executed by Negroes. The handling of various individual church charters, transferring deeds and property rights of the two organizations into the new one offers Negro lawyers throughout the world unprecedented legal work. ABLE MEN ON COMMISSION. The men composing the commission on organic church union are regarded as the best minds of the two church connections. They are: For A. M. E. Church—Bishop J.

I had no idea that getting married was so exciting. The Count and Countess were married on June 3, but the pair kept the marriage secret until Saturday night at a party given to her friends at the cabaret which hears Miss Baker's name at 40 Rue Fontaine. Then she slipped on her ring for the first time. "Why did you keep it a secret?" she was asked. "Oh," she replied in her usual sprightly manner. "You see I am only 21-1 married on my twenty-first birthday. It's the first time I got married, and you see I really didn't know what to do." The marriage was performed by Ambassador Herrick. Miss Baker's marriage comes as the climax of her rapid rise to fame. Entering Paris two years ago, almost unknown and practically penniless, she won instant success at the Champs Elysees Theatre. In less than a week later she was being showered with offers from the leading theatres. From this humble review she became the star of the Follies-Bergere, the most famous music hall in the world, and on whose stage hundreds of persons appear nightly. At this time Miss Baker was not yet 20. Her further success was so great that her vogue swept the Gay City, Models of her appeared in the leading shop windows on the Rue de l'Opera; her pictures were hung in various art salons; Parisiennes began to use a dark-skinned powder in initiation of her color, while France's leading novelist, Maurice Dekobra, wrote a movie scenario around her, which is to appear soon. There also came offers from other leading theatres in Europe, from London, Vienna, Amsterdam, Brussels and Berlin. The Countess had told me a short time previously that she had accepted a contract with a Berlin theatre at $1,500 a week, to begin when her contract with the Folies expires. As to letters from admirers the Countess has received trunkfuls of them, some from titled persons, other than the Count. Needless to say that in this land of no colorline, the great majority of these admirers are from white persons. Here her marriage is being accepted as being nothing out of the ordinary, so far as color is concerned. And best of all, the Countess has made a fortune, which she has taken care of, her closest friends have informed me. She is said to be worth more than a quarter of a million dollars, all made in less than two years, in addition to her jewels. "Yes," she replied. "I take care of my money. No butterfly life for me. I have no time for that. I dance at the Acacias, a fashionable tea room, in the afternoon. I am at the Folies until midnight. From there I go to my cabaret, where I am busy until the wee hours of the morning. Yes. I have no time for anything else. I used to pray for all these things when I was very young, and now that the chance has come, believe me. I'm P. KOBERTA DODD CRAWFORD, lyric soprano, who has recently returned to her home in Chicago from a successful recital tour through the South and Southwest. At her debut recital at Kimball Hall, Chicago, last spring, Madam Crawford received splendid press notices from the daily papers of the city. going to make the most of it. A villa at Monte Carlo for me, and all the other things that go with it." And there is our Josephine, from St. Louis, Mo. launched into European society. The fact of which the Countess seemed most proud, after the Count, was that she was only twenty-one. "How does it feel to be famous, the Countess was asked, 'Oh,' she replied, "that is nothing to what I hope to be some day. The Count is an artist, he knows the theatre, too, and he is going to devote the rest of his life toward perfecting me." "Do you ever intend to return to America?" "Sure. I have my mother in St. Louis, and all my friends. There are all the friends who were so kind when I was struggling along, I want to see them to thank them. But as to living in America that is impossible. My ideas have changed now. I couldn't stand that dogging around we used to suffer when I was on the road, especially in the South. These white people here are different. They're so good, and king, that you don't think of their color. Everyone has been so kind to me. "Yes." she went on. "I'm glad of my success. And believe me, I've worked hard for it. I'm glad of it for several reasons. There's my mother, and my own people. It helps to make it easier for colored folks to get employment on the stage in Europe." "That Revie Negre at the Champs-Elysées certainly started a vogue for the colored musician in Europe. Of course, many had been popular before I came. I do not for a moment wish to take away any credit from them." The Countess admitted that she had made a fortune, a fact that would have been impossible in America. "The best I could have had," she said, "would have been a place on some circuit, as so many If our best colored players have. They have had to take a more or less inferior place simply because of color. No, I could never think of making my home again in America after all of this. The Countess has a Spanish father, and was born in St. Louis. She went later to Philadelphia. At fifteen she joined a chorus in New York, where she performed nightly for $18 a week. Later she danced in the "Plantation Revue" then "Shuffle Along" and "The Chocolate Daniels." Luckily for her that play failed and she came to Paris, where she has become famous and wealthy. The Count in addition to being an artist is an expert horseman. At present he is a lieutenant in the Arditi Corps, one of Italy's crack regiments. He has won recognition in Rome and other cities for his horsemanship. At the Countess' cabaret come the smartest folk in Europe, with royalty and the nobility galore. She has played before or entertained privately some of the leading mensages of Europe, America and Asia. The Countess intends to continue her theatrical career. She and the Count are to appear in the film being written by Maurice Dekoura. A close friend of the Count told me that the latter was earning 5,000 francs a week, and that he has done much to keep the Countess before the public. The Countess, herself, told me that she was engaged to him, and that was some time before the marriage had taken place. The Countess said that she had had an offer from a vaudville company in the States, but that if she ever came, she intended to leave the Count behind. The Count gave up his position in the Italian Ministry of Finance, expressly to be in Paris with his former financee. "He couldn't work and make love at the same time," said Miss Baker, "so he gave up business. Now he is making success in the theatrical line himself." And so enter, the first American Countess. The Count, like other members of the European nobility I have met, is unassuming, very polite, and quite likeable.

Sunday Morning Bible Class was organized in 1920 by Thomas E. Taylor, the first teacher, who commenced the work with one lone pupil. It arose out of a possibility of arising interest in Bible study among young men as a means of making life count in Christian character and in encouraging church attendance. The fragrant challenge was: "Men will not be interested in a Bible Class early Sunday mornings." The objective of the class has always been to exchange frankly the Bible contents; to apply the teachings of the Bible to the everyday problems of life, and thereby increase the capacity for the larger Christian life. The work of the class from 1920 onward has been headed in the order presented herewith by T. O. Farquharson, Spencer Haywood, John Young, D. C. Cooper, P. S. Dixon, C. L. Maxie and Edward Shaw. The topical discussions for July include the following: 1. July 3—The teachings of the prophets and to what extent Christ's coming into the world were their fulfillment. M. J. Patterson. 2. July 10—Was Jesus Christ the cause of God by nature or adoption? Edward Smith. 3. July 17—The teachings of Jesus apostles: (a) How they compare and differ. (b) How much may be regarded as true narrative or personal beliefs. Wm. Washington. 4. July 24—A comparative estimate of the life and teachings of Saint Paul. Hosea B. Campbell. 5. July 31—The comparative growth of Christianity of the modern world. Is Christianity declining or keeping pace with other religions? Henry C. Parker, Jr. Officers of the class are: Hosea B. Campbell, president; Gentry St. vice president; J. Patterson, secretary; John Matthews, treasurer. Stanley Rampey, who for all round scholarship, conduct and general department won the camp award in competition with 2,000 other students from George Washington High School, left with a West 15th street branch bound for Camp Carlton last Friday morning. Tonight will be the annual award night, in the Boys' Department.

Fisk University's $100,000 Fund Raised by Alumni Gifts ranging from a few pennies to $1,000 by more than 5,000 alumni and other supporters of Fisk University, Nashville. Tennessee enabled the institution to wipe out a debt of $225,000 by which it has qualified for a $1,000,000 endowment fund, it was announced last week by Paul D. Cravath, chairman of the trustees. The General Education Board has pledged $500,000 and the Carnegie Corporation $250,000 toward the $1,000,000 endowment. In addition the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial has made possible the creation of a Department of Social Research in which it is planned to make original designs of Nero backpacks, folk lore, psychology and music, but also to train research workers for educational and social service positions," says the announcement. Fisk University was founded in 1865. Its enrollment has increased from 280 in 1925 to 500 this year, the latter figure representing an excess of 800 more than can pacity. PRIVATE TUTORING PROPENSIONAL All Subjects—Personal Prices Ivy and Evening Reduction for Classes R. JAMES COOPER 216 West 128th St. Bloomington, 5472 Bethel Pastor Out for Bishopric Dr. H. K. Spearman Endorsed at Last New York Conference When the general conference of the A. M. E. Church meets in Chicago next May, among the important church legislation will be the election of at least four new bishops. Prominent among the candidates is the Rev. Dr. Henry K. Spearman, pastor of the Bethel A. M. E. Church. Dr. Spearman was born in Newberry, S. C. of slave parents. He began his education in the public schools there, and passed one year at the Colored State College of South Carolina. In 1901 he graduated from Lincoln University, where he won honors in oratory. He later entered the Divinity School of Vale University, from which he also graduated. He was licensed to preach in Belfast at Oxford, Pa., and was admitted to the New England conference in 1901. In 1902 he was ordained elder by Bishop Derrick. His first appointment was at Chichester, Mass. He also pastored at Lynn Vass. In 1918 he married Miss Elizabeth Francis Morris, a public school teacher, Mrs. Spearman makes a keen interest in the work of the church and is of great assistance to Dr. Spearman. At the last session of the New York conference of the A. M. E. Church, which met at Bethel Church, Dr. Spearman was endorsed as one of its candidates for the Bishopric. Unable to Locate Ex-Slave Woman Slavery WATERBURY, Conn., July 4. Recent news dispatches announcing the return of "Pinky" whose name is now Mrs. James E. Hunt, to Plymouth Church. Brooklyn, missed Miss Sarah L. Noether of this city to go scouring her old family album to verify her belief that she possessed a photo of the noted slave girl. Miss Noether found the picture, but the caption on it gives the name as Famille Virginia Casseopha Lawrence, a redeemed slave child five years old. A strong resemblance of the five-year-old girl, who is shown standing behind the altar call, and that of Mrs. Hunt, led Miss Noether to imagine they might be one and the same per- Even if they are not, she says, they had two things in common: redemption from slavery through the efforts of human persons and contact with that kindly and broad-minded son of Litchfield, Conn. Dr. Henry Ward Beecher. The photo of Fannie Virginia Cassiepia Lawrence, now owned by Miss Noether, is one of many which was sold to pay for the girl's freedom, and bought by the mother of Miss Noether. Its value is increasing, says Miss Noether, now that the historical facts are becoming known. Sallie Muna Diggs received the nickname of "Pinky" because of her pinkish cheeks. The photograph would indicate that the color of Fannie V. C. Lawrence also was light. Like the more famous "Pinky," Fannie was a child of great beauty. Like "Pinky," Fannie dropped from public sight after her redemption, but unlike "Pinky" she has never been discovered and here whereabouts now is a mystery. Fourth of July Casualties in Harlem Whether Harlem spent a sane Fourth or not, its celebration was apparently safe, judging by the police records in the heart of Harlem. At the West 135th street station only one casualty from fireworks was reported, and two children were reported lost. Mangenette Brickhouse, 15, 227 West 135th street, and Agnes Hammond, 16, 201 West 149th street, were shot in the face with blank cartridges fired from a gun in the hand of Walter Hammond, 16, 305 West 149th street. The children were treated for gunshot wounds in the face by Dr. Gahoe at Harlem Hospital and sent home. Alice Parker, 15, and Bessie Daniel, 13, 32 Division street. Involved N. Y. became lost from their parents at 144th street and Lenox arsenic, and were taken to the West 135th street station, where their mother called for them. An unknown man, white, was picked up by the police in front of 83 West 134th street, where it believed he fell while in an inexplicated condition, suffering a possible fracture of the skull. He was treated at Harlem Hospital by Dr. Baskister. TEACHER RETURNS A. PROF. LINSTANT AUGUSTE, a private teacher of French and music, returned last Tuesday from a ten weeks' stay in Paris. The professor, who was born in Haiti, resides at 617 Suckman street, Brooklyn. He has been in the United States for the past four years. While in Paris he attended the conference of the Darker Races, of which Rene Maran is one of the moving spirits. To Speak Here A. THE REV. ARTHUR B. ELMES, pastor of the People's Congregational Church, Washington, D. C., will address the annual sessions of the Men's Guild of the Union Congregational Church, 66 West 127th street, on Sunday, July 10, at 7:30 p. m. The subject of his address will be, "Who is the Chlidairr?" Dr. Elmes was formerly a schoolmaster. He won the Leeward Island Teachers' scholarship to the Jamaica College in 1908. Dr. Elmes is a graduate of the Theological College at Howard University, and has been the pastor of churches in North Carolina and Louisiana. He will be the guest of the members of the Antigua Benevolent Society during his stay in the city. Y. M. C. A. Summer School to Convene July 7 the twentieth anniversary session of the Chesapeake Summer School for the training of Y. M. C. A. secretaries opens at the Manual Training School, Bordentown, N. J., July 7, and runs for two weeks. On the 9th and 10th, a special conference of lay leaders will convene with W. R. Valentine, principal of the Bordentown School, as chairman and W. H. Wortham, New York real estate man, as secretary. The theme of the conference is: "The Layman's Opportunity in the Y. M. C. A." The discussion will center around the extent to which the V. M. C. A. is a layman's movement, the responsibility of leadership that layman should assume, and the relationship of the laymen to the secretary. A large attendance of laymen from all parts of the country, particularly from the Eastern states, is expected. This training school was organized twenty years ago at Asheville, N. C. The following year it convened at Asheville and thereafter at Arundel on the-Bay, Md. Harper's Ferry, W. Va., and Borden town, N. J., where it has been held for the past three years. Prominent among the national lecturers and teachers for this year are: J. E. Moorland of Brooklyn, N. Y.; Charles A. Coburn, State Secretary of New Jersey; Chaplain O. J. W. Scott of Howard University, A. Stuart of University of the Southern Region; the Rev. M. L. Shepard of Philadelphia, and Max Yergen, returned worker from South Africa. 600 Children Apply for Fresh Air Camp More than six hundred applications have been received at the Urban League Building for children wishing to go to camp this summer. Meanwhile, contributions amounting to $16 have been received during the past week from the following persons: Frank Worth, $2; Julius Thomas, $1; Philip Simpson, $5; Howard Mausfield, $5; William Carter, $1; David Lyaton, $2. Approximately $5,000 is needed to provide for the children already listed. Statistics are not needed to show that a large number of Negro children are in need of summer camp recreation. Yet, a few facts are necessary. The Charity Organization Society spent 11.5 per cent of its total relief expenditures on Negro families. For this group recreation for the children is a very vital factor in adjustment. Other organizations present similar problems. The large number of working mothers and broken homes in this section of the city present an unparalleled situation. In a recent study made by the Urban League it was found that more than three hundred mothers depended upon their children coming from school to play in the streets while they worked. The approaching summer is always a problem to them. One mother keeps her eight-year-old boy locked in the apartment on Saturdays, since there is no one to look after him while she works. Contributions to the Harlem Fresh Air Fund may be made to The Amsterdam News or the Joint Harlem Fresh Air Committee, in one of the New York Urban League. Y. W. C. A. Notes Night falls gently among the hills of Camp Prospect and a soft enfluence glows from sky and lake long after the hour when complete darkness has fallen over the crowded city streets. On Friday night, while this pale silver glow still lingered, while the trees stood dark and stately against the soft sky and the Evening Star shone alone and glorious over the shimmering water of the lake, those attending the Prospect Industrial Conference knew real magic as 200 girls with 200 lightning bolts and a city hawk and made a picture almost too beautiful for endurance. They felt the fret of life slipping away and their spirits were lifted in exhalation. This closing ceremonial of the conference, when conference officers for next year were installed, symbolized the spirit of the whole conference where, for two weeks, nationalities had lived in fellowship together, had studied, played and worked together. After the installation of officers the procession of internes marched down the hill to the lake and as they marched the girls sang "Follow the gleam . . . Of the light that shall bring the dawn." As they sang the thought of the valiant spirit of the girls at Prospect which, in many cases, ten hours of work a day in factories had not been able to dim. Then the boats began to slide gently out on the lake and still the fresh young voices sang. And as they sang, "Shall you complain who feed the world, who clothes the world, who house the world, of what the world may do? As from this hour you use your power the world must follow you," they remembered how all through the conference they had been growing in a sense of their oneness as industrial workers and had been studying ways and means of strengthening this bond. At the conclusion of the ceremony on the lake, the girls marched back up the hill and as they marched they sang "We are climbing Jacob's Ladder, every round goes higher and higher, every obstruction that life, no matter in what lowly place cast, is a clorious, sturdy The conference is now over. Two weeks of living out of doors, of swimming, rowing, hiking, of song and laughter, of worship and of study, of learning to know girls of different races and nationalities are over. The girls have finished their vacation. They are going back to work—many of them to ten and eleven-hour days and to monotonous, nerve-macking jobs. And yet, even as they go back, their spirits are bubbling over; their voices are ringing over the boat in song; their uklikes are strumming and their gay laughter is floating out over the water. Surely these girls from Prospect have changed their "old lamps for new"; their "tarnished ones for gold." Annie Sadler and Fannie King of the Beaux-Arts Club represented the Industrial Department of the West 137th Street Branch at SECOND SECTION NEWS BRIEFS CITY NEWS BRIEFS Anna Welch, 25, 109 West 189th street, must serve an indefinite sentence of from one year and three months to three years in the women's prison in Auburn as the result of stealing a $700 bracelet for which she only received $10 in pawn.

At East Orange, N. J., on Saturday they defeated the East Orange team; won both games of a double-header at Protectory Oval, Sunday, and on Monday won a double-header from Santop's Broncoes. In the fastest played game this season, the Philadelphia. Professionals were beaten in the first game of Sunday's double-header by a score of 5 to 3. In the other contest the White Plains team was beaten 8 to 5. The Broncoes were completely outclassed Monday and the only feature of the games was the pitching of 19-year-old Roosevelt Owens, who lives in Bayonne, N. J. Owens was making his debut with the Lincolnens and allowed but one hit during the game. He struck out ten men, but was so wild that the visitors made five runs through the fourteen bases on balls he allowed. The final score of the game was 14 to 5. The score of the other game on Monday was 12 to 4. The Bronx Giants will be the chief attraction at Protectory Oval Sunday, July 10. They have the best white team in the Metropolitan District and Manager Lloyd expects keeper competition than he has had for several Sundays.

Well, That's Another Story. News of the Battlers GORGE DIXON, a middleweight of Portland, Oregon, and said to be a pretty good one, was outpuncted in a ground-shattering fall at Shadow Lake, New York, on Tuesday evening of last week. It must have been a close as well as a well-acted serum, as the customers were somewhat impressed as to who should have received the vernis. Dixon's showing against Sinde will probably bring the westerner East paces to the snow flies to play with, and knockle pushes around these parts. --- BABY JOE GANS, who, with Jack Hines, both lightweights, have been the talk of the Coast for several months, turned in his greatest and most recent Tuesday evening of last week when he hauved Tommy O'Connor, who calls New York City his home, in order to afford the main event of an outdoor show at Los Angeles, that drew close to $20,000. Tommy, prior to his downfall at the hands of the National Baltimore Jaguars, whose name is still a byword in publicistic circles, has been the Stormy Petrel of the lightweight division in more ways than one. SYLVESTER JACKSON, of the Southern-Crescent A, C, defeated Emil Alcero of the Unionport A, C in the 18-pound class special bout at Hart's Casino Tuesday evening of last week. Jackson outshined him in each of the three sessions. In the second period Alcero was on the floor for a short count. When he arose a right-shank from the floor, he had it handed there is no telling what the result would have been. SAILOR DARDEN is still at it. Tuesday night of last week the Sailor took a lacing from Joe H. Huffman, N.C. Garden is working offener in defeats than when he was winning the majority of his matches in five years. The Garden is an expert in the construction of the way boxing is conducted throughout the country, one may readily see it pays to lose "financially speaking." LEE ANDERSON, one of the first light-heavies to kayak the Anchorage Kid Norfolk when the latter was in his prime, will appear in an eight-session waltz at Atlantic City by Tommy Mahan of Trenton, N.J. in the opinion of Compass Seated 121 pounds, while Mahan was four pounds lighter. WILBUR COHEN, Maxey Hauch's cooky little featherweight boxer, won the judges decision Monday night of last week over Chick Kunkan in a four-round heatup at the New Broadway Athletic Club, Philadelphia. Wilbur seated 125 pounds, while his adversary weighed 123.5 pounds. Accordingly, he lined up for three more engagements next month all to be staged out of the city. JOE ZINK, 146 pounds, of the Fourteenth Infantry, won on a foul over Kunkan in the eighth round of a scheduled ten at the Twenty-second Engineers' Armory Tuesday night of last week. Billy was in the lead when the foul was committed. JOEY WILLIAMS, 127.5 of Philadelphia, according to the judges' decision, was outpointed in an eight-round Lows on Tuesday night of last week. The verdict was very unpopular with the fans. Freddy Walsh, 14, of Atkinson, was the last presented the BUKE in the form of a cauliflower present. AL BROWN, who has been doing his stuff with considerable success abroad, may be back in the States. Genal Jess McMahon, matchmaker at Tex Rickard's Palace of Swat, let it be known last week that he had caddied to the Taylor-Canzonzer scrap staged in Chicago last Friday, night. Brown is in England, and doing very well, it is reported. HARRY SCOTT of Atlantic City, was unpictured in a touring boat by Steve Smith, Bridgeport, at Hollydale Mass., Monday evening of last week. According to reports, both boys were apparently afraid to extend them, the content was actionless. The "Dunny-hug," the "Thump" waltz and other dances were evident, according to several Down East dailies. BILLY HENDERSON, of the 36th Infantry, was outfitted in a spirited ten-round combat by Nick Palmer of the 15th Infantry at the 102d Medical Armory on Thursday evening. Henderson showed well in the early morning, and the team to the last, while Palmer improved as the battle progressed. GEORGE GODFREY, "The Black Shadow of Lieperville," Pa. won a ten-round decision over Jake Killen in the second evening. George copied every session under wraps. The big fellow is about ready for some of the big shots in the campaign is the proof, as he has not lost a contest in his last fifteen starts. JACK SHOWERS, light-heavyweight Jack Gilley of Jersey was knocked out in a round of a scheduled eight-session affair by Marco Polo, of May Ridge, at a Wednesday night. The end came after 2 minutes and 25 seconds in that period, when Jack forgot to duck a button turning the trick. The New Jersey battler was out for ten minutes.

When the former Nebraska Assemblyman first broke into the mitt rucket around these parts he must win what is termed "set-ups" in cauliflower circles, the majority of whom were obony lute cents. In Gains he wore a white doily and a dark indian color, but a man that has been liking everything up Canada way and is probably the best that Munza has had is New York. Carl Carter, the Cuban ront, GAINS ought to beat Munza, perhaps via a K.O. JOHNNY PARRIS, lightweight champion of Panama, rives in New York.

Thomas Jackson, president of the Bacharach Giants, announces that club has been reorganized under his supervision and has been incorporated as the Bacharach Baseball Club and the $5,000 representing last year's taxes, which caused the closing of the local park on Tuesday, has been paid up in full by the new board of directors. Congressman Bacharach has leased the park over to the directors until March 1, 1928. Members of the above mentioned body are: Thomas Jackson, president; Regional Weeks, vice-president; William Weeks, treasurer, and Duncan Weeks, director. According to Jackson's story the former board of directors, which was composed of John Dykes, Hammond Daniels, Charles Johnson and Henry Tucker, failed to pay last year's taxes, amounting to $5,000, and the park was closed by representatives of the tax office on Tuesday afternoon just as the Bacharachs and Hilldale were about to go to bat. The new directors claim they adjusted the matter on Wednesday. When Keenan Walked Out The Eastern Colored League moguls held a meeting at the offices of Hammond Daniels last week the outcome of which was the withdrawal of the Lincoln Giants, of New York, from the circuit. The argument which led to James Keenan, the representative of the Lincolnins, walking out of the meeting, occurred over a young western league star, Alonzo Montalvo, who Keenan would not release when ordered to by the league. The Bacharachs were scheduled to play at the Lincoln park on Sunday of last week, but Tom Jackson refused to take his squad to New York for the game if Montalvo was in the line-up, refused to parry up the Cuban, walking out of the meeting and probably severing his connection circuit. Jackson scheduled the New York Red Caps to play on the local diamond last Sunday, instead of going to New York; they will also engage the Baltimore Black Sox this week. Those present at the meeting were: Thos Jackson, Bacharach Giants; C. W. Strothers, Harrisburg Giants; Alexander Pompez, Cuban Stars; Jas. J. Keenan, Lincoln Giants; George Rossiter, Baltimore Black Sox; Nat C. Strong, Brooklyn Royal Giants, and Edward Bolden, Hilldale. June Fete Given for Home for Our Aged What was heralded as the biggest and best June fete and hazaar ever held for the benefit of the Home for Aged Colored People took place Wednesday evening, June 29, on the spacious lawn of the home, Kingston avenue and St. John's place. It was the seventh annual affair given under the auspices of a group of ladies representing the East New York Community Club, Excelslor Temple No. 25, of the Daughter Elks, the New Era Association and a committed from the home. Ladies prominent in the social and fraternal life of Brooklyn acted as chairmen of the various booths, among them being ice cream, Mrs. Lulu Fletcher; ice cream cones, Mrs. Sarah Week; variety, Mrs. M. A. Domingo; punch and lemonade, Mrs. S. Jordan; cake and fruit, Mrs. L. Tinsley; cake and candy, Miss H. Walley; The committee from the home had charge of the salads and soft drinks. On the committee were Mrs. L. M. Fayerweather, Mrs. M. Gilbert, Mrs. E. Morton, Mrs. M. Edwards, Mrs. M. Goode and Mrs. M. Wright. The following ladies formed the dinner and supper committee: Mrs. Martha Vann, Mrs. Hattie Herblin and Mrs. Ida B. Stevens. On the reception committee were Mesdames Isabella Jones, E. Woodward, M. Cogill, M. Wood, L. Ferguson, Misses Iris Clark and Caroline Downs. The tickets were in charge of Mrs. J. Green and E. B. Wright. way for his opponent, but slowed up a trifle towards the end of the final session. This probably influenced the judges not to order an extra period. ROBERT DEKEYSER, former mid-bleightleight champion during his Simon Pure days with the Salem-Cresser annual months, returned to the ring Monday evening of last week at the St. Nicholas A. C. and was outpainted by Yorkville, a stabblemate of Paul Herlechow, who boxed the main bout on the program. Fullam scaled 163½ to DeKeyser weighed 168 pounds. BARBADOS LEADS IN CRICKET MATCH Barbados was in the lead by six runs, but had four more wickets to fall when stumps were drawn for the day in the two-day international cricket match between elevenes representing Barbados and the Windward and Leeward Islands at Commercial Field, Brooklyn. The Windward and Leeward team batted first and ran up a score of 144 before it was dismissed. J. Lander was top scorer, with an inning of 39. Others to reach double figures were K. Bascombe, with 34; J. Robinson, 25, and Rosa Robinson, 22. Barbados took its turn, but the first three men were out before fifteen runs had been scored. However, E. Holder and A. Simpson got together and put on fifty runs before the former was caught in the long field. B. Dash, the next batsman, compiled a vigorously played innings of 43 before Holder shattered his wicket.

Lou scaled 1321½ and Bruce 134 pounds. Although outpointed, Bruce was far from being disgraced, as Kaplan turned in one of his very best performances, and would have had a grand chance of turning back any lightweight in the game today. That goes for Sid Terris, regarded as the uncrowned champion, and for Billy Wallace, the chap who stooped the Meridian. Conn. battler in Cleveland last winter. Kaplan, known to his followers as the human buzzsaw, had to be at his best to gain the award, because Flowers put up his usual fight, which has always been good enough to win. More than anything else. Flowers' defeat was caused by Kaplan's peculiar style, one that the New Rochelle lad was unable to fathom, but he stood up under the worst beating of his career, took it without a whimper like good, game fighter he is, and was given an ovation by his followers that was equal to the one Billy Gibson's charge received. IRVINGTON 159 WEST 125th S Underwear- WILLS READY FOR BIG FIGHT Suspension Lifted From Paolino "Upside Down" and He Is Happy Paolino Uzcudun, the Basque heavyweight, will meet Harry Wills, the Black Panther, in a 15-round bout at Ebbets Field on the night of either July 15 or 18. Either of these dates is open for Ebbets Field and Promoter Humbert J. Fugazy will ask the decision of the boxing commissioners at Tuesday's meeting as to which would be satisfactory to them. Promoter Humbert J. Fugazy finally got the Massachusetts Boxing Commission to lift the suspension that enjoined the Basque from boxing in this State and his announcement makes certain the big battle that has been on the way for the past few weeks. Both Paolino and Wills have been in training for this encounter for the past week or two. The foreign invader has shifted his camp to Madame Beys at Summit, N. J., and Wills is working out at Southampton, L. L., where he prepared for his battle with Louis Angel Firpo. The next two weeks will be the busiest in both camps, judging by the call that has gone out for sparring mates. Both are looking for the biggest and most durable boxes available to prepare for the greatest heavyweight attraction Brooklyn had for years. Paolino was in great spirits when he heard that the Massachusetts suspension had been lifted. Through an interpreter he said that this opportunity was the greatest coming his way since he landed here. He figures that he can knock out Wills and that a clean knockout will boost him high in the heavyweight standing. Wills also is overjoyed at getting this bout. It is his opinion that Paolino has been sidetracked by Dempsey, Sharkey and others who thought he was much too tough. "I can stop Paolino and when I do the public will be convinced that I'm ready for any heavyweight from the champion down. I never felt better in my life. The bad arm that bothered me all through the training for Jack Sharkey has been cured and those who have seen me in workouts since then will agree with me that I'm punching better and shaping up better than when I trained for Sharkey." It was announced that the supporting card would be completed before the end of the week. ALL AT ONE PRICE ALL WOOL SUITS. $12.75 TOPCOATS.....

Winter and his associates of the hooded order spent the day in an open lot "somewhere on Long Island."

It was announced that the Klan would join in the Independence day celebration, but those interested in the dispute believed that Police Commissioner Warren and his assistants thought otherwise.

The bout was close all the way. Hawes weighed 115 pounds, with Rash three pounds heavier. Bobby Wagner's fast finish in his eight-round with Joe Rice, of Jersey City, gave him the decision. Bobby used his left, effectively and sent over his right often enough to win out in the final frames. Wagner, who hails from New York, scaled 120 pounds, Rice 133%. Al White, of Brooklyn, 1312 pounds, scored a technical on-ground knockout over Danny Shugrue, of Jersey City, in the first eight-spot. The pair mixed it furiously at the start and then went into a clinch. They were broken by Referee Mickey Pell, but rushed at each other immediately, their heads collided, Shugrue sustained a bad cut over his right eye and a scratched nose. Referee Pell then stopped the bout and awarded it to White. Shugrue weighed 130 pounds.

Dear Mr. Dougherty: I have been waiting to hear from you over the show, but I sent I sent, so I would like to know if you have received it yet, as I sent from London just before I left for Paris. Will for a little news: My opening in Paris was a tremendous success, of which I was more than thankful, or being the show's show, all the performers are white and from America and London, but I have found them to be the show and have also received some wonderful press notices, which I will send you as soon as they are translated. Well, there are so many of our people coming over here for the summer that I won't need to come to Harlem to see you feel good to know that they are able to come here and study, as the French people are really crazy about you feel welcome, regardless of color. "The 5 Harmony Kings" are still here in Paris and have made a great success, simply went wild over their last, although they sing all their numbers in English. Audunness seem to appreciate any performance they bought them an act, and the people showed their appreciation by making them take fire and six encores a performance. They have a time to fill engagements there, as they are really in demand. They all wish to be remembered to you. Miss Josephine Baker is still the most famous high-class teencore, with music, and served from 5 until 7 o'clock in the evening, and it is a gorgeous show. She has three from all races, and she is the same little Josephine Baker and sends her regards and wishes to be remembered to all. She isn't very much news at present, I wish I could have done a "Linthertheater" his reception was "100 bad."

I have heard from so many friends, telling me about the wonderful art and craft of the crafts, and certainly appreciate your efforts in keeping me before the public, so let me hear from you at once and if you received the money order, simply send it. The money order to which Mr. Hudkins has reference is in payment for his purchase of equipment which he placed on the theatrical page of this paper on the Ivan Browning of the "Four Harmony King".

A very pretty and charming young miss, Doris Hill, gives a very instructive demonstration as to how curves can be reduced without the aid of a scientific diet. Others can also learn how easy it is for a beautiful manicurist, as portrayed by Ms. Busch, can capture the heart of an elderly Don Juan via the trimming of nails. Which leads up to the fact that "The Beauty Shoppers," an original story by Travers Lane, is a more than interesting picture entertainment and has that certain something that keeps one interested from the very beginning of the story to the final fadcourt. In brief it tells of the trials and tribulations of a young lady who comes to New York to make a name for herself as a painter and becomes a beauty demonstrator to keep the wolf from the door. In so doing she has many adventures, heartaches and thrills, but in the long run finds the man she loves and loves her. You Say It's Barbarous? Well, It All Depends "Mr. Wu" Shows That All Codes Must Be Viewed From Racial Angle and Will Be Shown at Lincoln What seems barbarous in this country may, in another, seem perfectly correct, and vice versa. This is strikingly brought to light in "Mr. Wu." Lon Chaney's new starring vehicle coming Thursday to the Lincoln Theatre. For the uncanny drama of Oriental mystery, intrigue and revenge is founded on codes which in China are considered perfectly natural and right, although this country would regard them as shocking. Chaney plays an uncanny mandarin whose revenge on an English family predeceits a Chinese drama based on the European his Oriental idea of revenge is almost unbelievable. But it is founded on actual Oriental tradition. Louise Dresser, Renee Adoree, Gertrude Olmsted, Ralph Forbes and other noted players appear in the east, under the direction of William Nigh. The play, on the stage, was a sensation as acted by Walker Whiteside. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 6, 1927 THE NEW PLAY By ROWLAND FIELD— BOTTOMLAND—A new musical comedy in three acts. Book, lyrics and music by Clarence Williams. Musical numbers by Aaron Gates. Settings by Benquent Studios.

Either way you look at it, the result was hardly "Bottomland" is the product of Clarence Williams, pianist and writer of songs. He it was who conceived the book, lyrics and music for this production. He was also the author of the favored and with his production William Telo has been heard many times on the ethereal waves of practically every metropolitan broadcaster. It was evidently in response to repeated demand by his vast unseen audience and cum into being. Its usefulness is gathered together bustily a cost of entertainers that does not seem to be overburdened with talent. Heading the players are Eva Taylor and Sam Martin, who are recording artists with some goes in for sentimental blunders which are more effective. "The plot of the piece has to be with Mandy Lee, who is involved into the business." There she finds inevitable disappointment and sorrow, and so starts a busy retreat back home, where real happiness makes its headquarters. This is just about all there is to be, and this flexible frame is being the evening's activities. There are the usual stock characters, such as mummy and puppy, book and wing dancers, and some mildly amusing comedians. A chorus of moths occupies the best when it dances. The music is live without being distinguished. However, it serves its purpose well enough, and there is one song, "Bottomland," that possesses a lasting quality. It is a real original idea of how much downward shifts should be sung, only served to be greatest in her coherence. It was rather useless problem childhood. One of the best voices of the evening was that of James A. Baildard, and there was another, the Meyer Campbell, and Farrow showed marked ability as lightning top dancers, and Sam Henderson and John Mason were the chief comes. Clarence Williams appeared at the piano on the stage for a few brief moments in the second act. More of his playing would have The workman is too conventional and haphazard in its construction to get very far. It falls far below the standard set several years ago by Shaffer Almond, and the other african productions that created a demand for this type of entertainment in New York. Headliners in Triumph Here Glenn and Jenkins and the Dixie Four Appear in Splendid Revue one of the finest shows of its kind opened a week's engagement at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday and was greeted by what the management declared was a record attendance. The show was a distinct triumph and wave after wave of applause greeted the appearance of vaudeville favorites who have not appeared on the local stage for many months. Glenn and Jenkins and the Dixie Four carried off the bulk of the honors. The well-known Keith stars had the audiences rocking with laughter, particularly in their specialties." When Glenn and Jenkins exchanged the applause in the finale for a full minute. The eccentric dancing of the Dixie Four was received with similar acclaim. Frank Radcliffe also scored. He has a very sweet tenor voice and his unusual ability as a comedian places him in a class by himself as a "single." Freddie Washington and Al Moore danced a most beautiful tango and apache dance, and showed the splendid reputation which they now enjoy has not kept pace with their ability. Blanche Thompson sang sweetly and led the chorus in several numbers in a way which was a revolution. The chorus, we are told, is the best that Leonard Harper has yet assembled. Elmer Snowden's band provided the music. With the aid of Thomas Lefayette, Theatre's well-known ornament, they played "The Birth of the Blues" as an overture. It was well executed and heartily received. The feature picture also deserves mention. It is "The Yankee Clipper," produced by Rupert Julian under the supervision of Cecil B. DeMille and with a splendid cast, including William Boyd, Ellinor Fair, Julia Faye and Walter Long. It is a stirring story of the days when America was in the making, and pictures in scenes of unforgettable pathos, humor and beauty the story of a race between a British and a Yankee sailing vessel from China to Boston, and of a romance that flowered despite intrigue, treachery and danger.

Our Operators Now at the Odeon --- Motion Picture Union Placed Negroes in Booth at 145th Street House With the intelligent members of this community Local No. 306 of the Motion Picture Operators' Union scored another point in their own behalf when they again gave evidence of trying hard to live up to the promises made the colored motion picture operators, of Harlem. Recently Negro operators were placed at the Odeon Theatre, one of the houses, along with the Roosevelt and Douglas, under control of the M. & S. Circul. Manager Shapiro sent a wagon through Harlem during the fight for recognition by the Negroes telling the world that he was glad to be in a position to say—that he employed colored union men at the Roosevelt and Douglas. There were many things, which we are not in a position to disclose at this time, which operated to prevent our boys going into the Odeon sooner, the same things holding true of the Franklin Theatre, corner 132nd street and Lenox avenue, between the beade of all lilies and within a short period of time Harlem will be one hundred per cent unionized with colored operators in those booths in the剧院 catering to Negroes. In the face of recent events we are tempted to again direct the attention of the public to the fact that in almost every theatre in the community they will find Negroes operating the picture machines and DRAWING THE SAME PAY AS THE WHITE BOYS WORKING UNDER THE PROTECTION OF THE UNION. well, ask all that ends well, so we bring three cheers and a crowd.

Surely no one. can possibly present any objection to the ex- eretse by colored people of the right to enjoyment; and this en- foyment in its forms need not meet the moral standards which are to be predicated upon relis- ious helfef. It is sufficient that it be founded upon the healthy recreational needs or desires of the people themselves. And, fur- ther. the tact that this soctal d!- version {s not always withont its common social dangers, does not place it upon the Ust of the damned. . ‘Tho complaint which this dis- cussion bears, therefore, is not predicated upon apy presumption of pradery or even conventional morality. It is pased, rather, upon the theory that whenever the diversions of a group are regulated by and financed by the capital of the exploiting group, untold dangers, social. economic and political, will ensue to the detriment of the sumptuary group.

On the other hand, a few students are cnrolled in’ several of the semt- private institutions catering to usual wine, women and song. ‘This fs bad enough when the wine, women and song are pro- duced for the entertainment of the same race; by amusement venders who belong to the same ractal group. But when, as in the case of the Harlem Negro, the white group, male and fe- male, is to be entertained and amused, and the entertainers are Negroes operating under or- ders from white men and whito capital, the problem is at once intensified. When im the days of old the Barron Wilkinses end the Wal- ter Herberts, the Diggses and the Nlals operated their places of amusement and drinking, the saving grace of that s{tuation was the fact that the owners of those institutions were of the same race as the entertainers and possessed natural inhibi- tions which would restrain them from sending the colored youth —male and female—to com- plete damnation. At present this js not the case; the amusement dives are now operated by white men with their own capital. ‘As a result, the Harlem com- anunity is at present nothing more nor less than the devil's playground; and the toys of the devil's joys and of his play are the colored residents of Harlem. Most of these toys, as 1s natural, comprise the very young.

An instance of this nature has recently come to our attention. ‘A Negro girl who graduated from one of the trade schools in 1993 was placed in a downtown shop where she succeeded admtr- ably well. In a short time she ‘way promoted to the position of trainer for the new girls com- ing into the industry. Her initial wage was $15 per week, which eventually was raised after two years to $20 per week. While white girls were being trained for the industry they were re- ceiving the same wages as their trainer, and upon completion of the process thelr wages were automatically increased to $25 per week, ‘After ail, one must realize that the school and industry must function together and effectively.

MAGILL shame, thelr degeneracy. their physical wreckage, and their physical and morul death is, and Should be, the direct concern of this public opinion. What are some of these degen- erating acts and conducts? How do they operate and come about? In the first place, a drufken man or woman is not sane; not morally responsible. When white man comes to Harlem either to visit a cabaret or @ night club, he brings along cer- tain appetites and cash. In this community, because of the lop- sided social leadership, are to be found persons, male and female, whose avowed purpose in life is to avold as much as is possible the demon work. ‘Since the entire social outlook of the community 1s based upon things rather than on ideas, things and the method of acquir- fag them, have become the domi- nating objective in the mind of the residents of Harlem. It is hardly possible for a white man to come to a cabaret or to 2 night club without thero being offered for his amusement the souls of the colored woman and the manhood of the colored man. And since the whites, who are responsible for their amuse- ment, owe no social or moral duty to the members of the com- munity, there 1s no limit to the conscience or to their vileness. They offer the bodies of the young women to the largest spender among thelr white pa trons; the colored sirls accept because they are able thereby to obtain the fineries of the stores United States citizenship and resi- denceship.

Another type is the excreted, restless state, the opposite to melancholia. In others an anxiety predominates. They are anxious and afraid, with some form of phobia or obsession. In others the brain and nerves react easily to autosuggestion. Such people develop hysteria. There are certain people whose mode of life, habits and organic constitution make them prone to the development of these nervous disorders. Alcoholics and syphilis; users of cocaine and opium have a nervous system that is easily affected. Other individuals who experience strong emotional impressions such as shock, bereavement, fear, anger, business worries, domestic difficulties that worry the mind and burden the heart, may develop some form of these nervous diseases, have recently seen some cases of hysteria and mental incompetence due to deep religious impressions.

After she is dead, or after someone else has discovered and appreciated her, he bows his head in shame at his smallness. Just suppose that women exerted perfection from men! What a sad world this would be! Nevertheless, man can't bear the thought, woman he loves having a past. Why can't he allow the present to atone for the past? Why doesn't he help her in her efforts to wipe out a mistake? Does it ever occur to men that women too need sympathy and understanding? Do you weigh yourself ever mount the scale yourself? Not only do you hurt the woman who loves you, but also yourself. You make life miserable by raking up past happenings.

Chaperones are like hairpins. They aren't. Of course there are a few exceptions, and evidently you've met one. I do not believe in older people staying purposely in the harbor when young people are there, it causes self-consciousness and results in young people going outside of the home. An adjoining room is close enough for the parents and little ones of a family can certainly take the romance out of any love affair. Now, Sel. of course you can't tell the girl's parents what to do. You can only speak to the girl. The task is upon her to show people that nowadays young people are more attentive to the majority of affairs. She soon be elkneen and perhaps be given more liberty. Don't you get sassy with her parents. Telling her that you're likely to be missing for a while will undoubtedly lead to her requesting her parents to change their attitude. Best of luck to you.

At Nimes is also the remains of a Greek temple that was destroyed by Deacon Cyril, a rabid Christian. Each incoming civilization seems to have set about to destroy the preceding one. The Arabs, for instance, threw all the Christian relics into the street, while the Christians did the same for the Arabs. Perhaps this after all was for the best, because there are so many relics here that one wonders where they would be placed. Yes, there was some method in the madness of those old barbarians, for after all, too much is enough, as the saving goes. Undoubtedly, the most remarkable of these relics is the Palace of the Popes which is, in reality, an immense fortress and certainly the most formidable structure I have yet seen. It covers nearly 16,000 square meters, which if I mistake not, is about three and a half acres. The battlements look like immense cliffs. The Popes lived here from 1309-1379, a period that is known as the Babylonian Captivity. If it is so called, as I suppose it is, because the time was the same length as that spent by the Jews in Babylon, then there is a fine frony in it, for while the Jews were so unhappy that they could not sing the Lord's songs in a strange land, the Popes lived here in a splendor that rivalled the Caesars, and by all accounts, some of them were quite as dissolute. One of the Popes, by the way, was Nicholas Breakspar. OnaSlow Tr Louisiana a NATCHEZ, Miss. By FOUR A.M. and resting and beautiful bungalow rison. The phone be peratively.

Dr. Dumas, whose wife is head of the colored Red Cross auxiliary here, owns half a dozen store fronts on the main street rented to whites, and is the brother of M. O. Dumas of Washington. Of course, there were contrasts, the Blue Goose Hotel, for example, but of that, more later. A hasty snatch at breakfast and we board the three-car Missouri Pacific train; one a mail and language car, with a colored mail clerk; one a white coach, and the other regularly a whole "Jim-crow" car, but today half-filled with whites, who used it as a smoker, leaving only a half-section for colored folk, with but one toilet for men and women. "What you goin'?" asked the crusty genial conductor. "To Monroe, La." was the reply. "What you going to do that?" was the next direct question and, as we ducked it by not answering, he said: "Golg to look at the high water maybe. Wall, you'll see plenty of it—you ought to have some boots or a boat." Toot, toot! and we move slowly toward the Mississippi River, half a mile away, where the entire little train is run onto a ferry and conveyed across to the Louisiana shore. Numerous startings and stopnings came as the train ran north along the river, with flood water one to two feet high on either side as far as the eye could see. The colored folk in the Jim-Crow car were for the most part refugees returning home or who had come from the camps to see how their houses were faring. A dozen got off every few miles and a dozen more took their places. At Viladia, Willie Haney, bright, hustling agent of the People's Line Insurance Company of New Orleans, boarded the train. He was on his way to Ferrady, one of the four towns in which his large debit lay scattered over. Had many slick or death claims? "No." said Haney. "So many people had to leave that we have been unable to find them. Many got in arrears and, therefore, were not entitled to benefits, according to law, but I am trying to run them down now." Many of the folk on the train were his customers. "What time do we get to Monroe, Cap." some newcomer asked the conductor. "Lord knows, boy, I don't. You ain't got nothing but time, has you?" "How's the water up there, Cap?" "Plenty of it—plenty. We had water chest deep day before yesterday and had to jack the track up out of the water to repair it. We don't care, though. This is a Baptist train." "What kind of preacher is you?" he asked Jesse an Englishman. At that time the English were in exactly the same position as the American Negro now is. It will be recalled that Macaulay says that when Henry I married Edith, a Saxon princess, the marriage was regarded as one would be between a quadron and an aristocratic Virginian in Virginia. It is to be supposed that the English were about as elated as the election of one of their number as Pope as the Negro is when one of their number breaks into a new political job. At Villeneuve les Avignon nearby, are the ruins of the summer palace of the Popes, Chateaueuf du Pape, which is also the name of a famous wine, once used exclusively for cooling the thirsty palates of the prelates. Then as now, Avignon is the center of a great wine district, and wine is as plentiful as hooch in America, which is saying a great deal. Colored folk are as scarce in this region as silver money is in France. I met but a single one, Monsleur Germany, who is a native of Martinique, and holds the high post of inspector of French customs. He won most of the medals given by the French in the last war, and is a dark Negro. Nevertheless one does not escape the color question. At a movie theatre there was the regular American film with a Negro doing his usual nigerisms. Is it any wonder that the majority of Europeans seem to think that all American Negroes are either clowns, servants or jazz players?

Dr. Dumas, whose wife Cross auxiliary here, owns on the main street rented to M. O. Dumas of Washig- e contrasts, the Blue Goose that, more later. O. Thomas of Atlanta, my travelling companion. "Baptist," answered J. O. "Baptist." "Fine," said the conductor, "you're on the right train. This is a Baptist train." The next town was Ferrady. It looked like Venice on a reduced scale. Boats were plying up and down the main streets, carrying both white and colored people. The few second-story buildings were populated with people. A dozen box cages on the track held colored families and one car had a sign "Post Office." Ferrady had been a busy, buselling town, a sawmill center. "How far are you going," we asked a portly young woman who had come to the train in high boots and tossed them back to a friend after she had boarded. "Up to Willardy to get my trunk and three children. I took them up when the high water came and now that I have been back and cleaned the mud out of my home, I am going back after them. There was four inches of mud in my house. It was just awful. Now was the best time to clean it before it got hard. It's very difficult to get off when it is hard. I washed the walls down and used disinfectant, for the odor was awful and the bedclothes still won't smell right." The flood water stretches from here for thirty or forty miles, the entire strip between the Mississippi and Black Rivers being inundated from three to ten feet, depending on how low the land was. The conductor passed by. "You ain't seen no water yet," he volunteered. "I tell you we we're Baptist." Across the alley sat Clarence Wilson, a cleancut looking chap. "Going up after my wife and baby," he said. "I stayed right here during the flood. Our firm, the Alexander Lumber Co., took care of its employees. Didn't want us to get away." Wilson was a skilled workman, operating a steam derrick hoisting logs out of the river. He made $4 to $5 per day for a ten and twelve-hour day. "Like the job?" I asked. "Yes, but I see planning to preach. I got converted October 11, 1917. I see heard the 'call' every year since, and I decided to accept this year and serve the Lord. I was ordained February 22 and Contrast this with a French film I saw, "Yasmina," in which one of the leading characters was Bengila, the Negro, whom I mentioned two years ago as playing at the Folles Bergere. He was shown, not as a grinning servant, but as one in authority. Another Negro in the picture was shown as the commander of the squad that was to shoot the hero, while white men were under him. There is only one other screen actor beside Bengila who has that mysterious power of being able to convey so much by a single look, and that is the Japanese, Sosue Hayakawa. Whether on the screen or the stage, Bengila is an artist of the first rank. As to the picture itself, if it were to be shown in the States, I feel pretty sure that the reserves would have to be called out to prevent a rush at the box office. It is realistic to say the least. In one of the harem scenes the ladies in all their voluptuous beauty may be seen descending into the water without even the protecting hand of September Morn. The American Negro is much misrepresented through Europe and the world by the American film. At Milan there was the "odious "Birth of a Nation" to greet me. And while every other oppressed group has some agency or mission at Rome, Paris, Berlin, London, to offset propaganda against them, we much stronger in number and wealth than many of them, are too self-centered in our Americanism, too locally-minded, to do have preached three times already in my spare time." He looked out the window at the rushing water as the train made another of numerous halts. "Well, put your trust in Jesus," he said. "Better put your trust in the engine," retorted his father-in-law, a practical old man who sat behind him. "Hey, Jim!" the old man hollered out of the car window to a fellow going by in a launch. "Take me to the next town." "I'll see you later," he cried to his son-in-law as the launch chorted away. An hour later the train reached the next town. The father-in-law entered, wiping his mouth. "I've been eatin' and eatin'," he said. "Red beans, pork and cabbage, grits and gravy." Yum! "What's that," cried the conductor. "Eatin?" Why didn't you tell me so I could have gone along and got a snack, too?" The Queen FROM time immemorial, government, when a queen to issue a proclam in the dynasty.

The Queen Is Dead FROM time immemorial, under monarchial forms of government, when a queen had died it was the custom to issue a proclamation announcing the change in the dynasty. Usually it was said: "The queen is dead! Long live the queen!" By this means was promulgated news of the demise of the queen and the ascent of another queen. Also it expressed the good wishes for the new queen. But, in the case under consideration, while we lament the death of the queen in question, such is the character of her successor that we cannot reasonably and conscientiously cry. "Long live the queen," because we do not wish her long life! The dead queen is Modesty, the new one Bohemia. We lament the death of Queen Modesty but we cannot welcome the coming of Queen Bohemia in her stead. We have no satisfaction in the ascent of this reckless, voluptuous, lascivious, degrading new monarch of our womanhood, and we cannot look with any complacency upon her inauguration. and ridiculed.

People were horrified when came the hobble skirt and the slit skirt exposing the woman's person; but now the best women, so-called, wear knee-length dresses The dominion of womanhood is a dual monarchy presided over by Chastity, for Chastity has always constituted in womanhood the sum of the things worth while; and Modesty has been associated with her and really has been her guide and defender. Chastity has ever been a delicate, unsophisticated child, and Modesty her chief advisor and protector. Throughout all the ages efforts have been made to destroy Chastity, to drag her from her throne in the interest of the pretender, Bohemia; during all of these years Modesty has stood and defended the delicate child, Chastity; but, alas! she has succumbed and Bohemia has been elevated to the place thus made vacant. Poor Chastity! Bohemia has associated with her Recklessness. Undue Liberty, Indiscretion, Ogism, Wild Nature, Give a Dare, Don't-Care-a-Dam, Voluptuousness. Kiss-Me-Quick, Jazz Baby, and others, making up her retinue or dissolute coterle; and such means almost the certain death of Chastity who even now has a hectic cough and alarming symptoms. In other days if a mother desired to nurse her baby she withdrew from company, if that could not be done concealed, concealed her breast from the gaze of men; but now a woman who does this is considered prudish "Real French People Are Met Only in Provinces" anything. A little to the south of Avignon is the town of Tarrascon, made famous in our day by Daundet's delightful satire on provincial life: "Tartarron of Tarrascon" and in an earlier day by the belief that St. Martha, sister of Mary and Lazarus, killed a dragon that had been ravaging the country. But St. Martha is said to have been buried in the cathedral that bears her name, here, while her sister, St. Mary, was buried in another town further to the South. Both, however, have had a hard time since, their bones being scattered out in the yard from time to time, the last time being the French Revolution. Nevertheless bits of their bones were later picked by the faithful, and a j Tarrascon one may view the skull of St. Martha for the small sum of two francs, or eight cents. Avignon was also noted for its harsh laws against the Jews, one of which was that if they cohabited with a Christian woman, "or entered or dared to think of entering the Christian house of prostitution" the penalty would be "the loss a leg and twenty- A Key to C By LEOLA LIN Tipping THE tipping system, so general proves in many instances in trons and employee.

A Key to Culture By LEOLA LILLARD THE tipping system, so generally practiced in America, proves in many instances advantageous to both patrons and employee. The anticipation of both is silent, but usually meets in material and spiritual results. The patrons expect courtesy and complete service, while the employee assembles all the units of gallantry that can be summoned on a moment's notice to meet their demands and thus merit a liberal reward. Incidentally, the employee, who realizes that his income is commensurate with the service he renders, endeavors to improve his ability to carry out his duties. The man or woman who gives any attendant a tip that is entirely incommensurate with the service rendered by the individual, is not impressing by his generosity, but is earning the division of the In Is Dead under monarchial forms of queen had died it was the cus- tation announcing the change was said: "The queen is dead! this means was promulgated queen and the ascent of an- sessed the good wishes for the consideration, while we lament question, such is the char- cane cannot reasonably and con- the queen," because we do dead queen is Modesty, the and ridiculed.

But Queen Modesty is dead; Chastity is dying; Abandon will reign in the stead of Chastity; and this means the utter destruction of womanhood and the collapse of our civilization!

Among other things, such as being compelled to wear a separate garb, they weren't allowed to shave Christians, including perhaps the ladies, many of whom wore bobbed hair in those days.

It is not until one gets into this region that he begins to meet the real French people, for Marselles and the Riviera, like Paris, are more cosmopolitan than anything else. The Provincials are very police. I might say that with my rougher American ways, I find them disconcertingly polite. Almost everything than can be done is done to avoid giving the least offense. As to the peasantry, they seem as obvious to what is going on in the outside world, and as contented with their surroundings as the majority of colored folk.

The hallboy who brings in a pitcher of ice-water should not receive the same amount as the waiter who serves a full course dinner. Nor should the maid who cares for the guest's room be forgotten, while the porter who carries in the trunks is handsomely rewarded for his few minutes' service. At a hotel, if a guest expects id stay for any length of time, he may reward the waiter in the dining room for his services at the end of each week. One dollar is considered the correct amount for a woman guest to pay in the dining room for a week's service and one dollar and a half for a gentleman guest. Individual tips should amount to about ten per cent of the bill. Women guests should remember the hallboy, maid, porter and waiter in the dining room. When the stay is short, twenty-five cents each is sufficient. The hallboy, however, is called upon to do odds and ends of service regularly and for this he should be tipped ten cents for each individual service he performs. If the stay is long, tipping should be done in accord with the amount of service requested, and the difficulty of same. the gentlemen guests are not expected to tip the chambermaid so lavishly, unless she performs some very special task for them, but all others who serve them during their stay should be tipped. The porter should be tipped ten cents for each trunk he carries to a room and more if he performs extra duties. Ten cents is adequate compensation for the bellboy for each task he performs and it should be forthcoming immediately upon the completion of that service. Twenty-five cents is considered a fair tip for station and train porters, unless the porter is requested to remain with the passenger for a length of time to guide them or perform some special duty, and for the service he should be tipped from fifty cents to one dollar. In the dining car twenty-five cents is sufficient for the service rendered a woman and ten percent of the bill or more, according to the service rendered, a gentleman. Patrons are not expected to overdo the act of tipping, but it is entirely ungrateful and discontinuous to neglect tipping for service accepted from employer, whose compensation is discontinued upon a small salary from their employers and tips from the patrons they serve.

Accidents Get Two in Jamaica Accidents Get Two in Jamaica --- Girl Killed by Truck Train Kills Man in Cedar Manor While riding a bicycle Monday night of last week along Sutphin boulevard, near 115th avenue, Mildred Hauck. 10, a little white girl of 150-48 113th avenue, Jamaica, often referred to by her little playmates as "Peaches," because of her resemblance to Penches Browning, was run over by a truck owned and operated by Walter Allen, of 59 113th avenue, Jamaica. A passing autoist was hailed by Allen, and he hurried the child to Jamaica Hospital, where she died shortly after her arrival. The handle bar of the bicycle had pierced her heart. Allen was arrested and arraigned on Tuesday morning before Magistrate Miller in Jamaica Court, and held in $5,000 bail for a hearing last Thursday morning. On Thursday morning, the Assistant District Attorney asked for an adjournment until Tuesday morning, at which time Magistrate Miller reduced the bail to $2,500 at the request of Counsellor Elmer Ashmead, representing young Allen, who also interceded in securing bail for him. On the same evening, shortly after the young girl was killed, an unidentified colored man was killed by a Long Island Railroad train at the New York ave. crossing at Cedar Manor. The train, eastbound, was operated by H. Ackelly. C. Raynor was conductor. The man was dead upon arrival of Dr. Harrison of Jamaica Hospital.

Johnson to Again Present Music Lovers' Ensemble The name Deacon Johnson is a household word throughout the musical world and the announcement that he will present sixty (60) celebrated singers and players in his second Music Lovers' June Night Festival Ensemble on Friday evening June 24, 1977, is therefore welcome news to the thousands who are familiar with his work, but are yet to come in direct contact with his remarkable personalities. This personality has drawn together an extraordinary group of musicians, many of them leaders in the profession, and has presented them to the celebrities of American's members of the social register and blue book over a period of many years. Deacon's first Music Lovers' June Night Festival Ensemble drew a capacity house and dealt with various types of modern music and demonstrated the musical value and interest of such work. Hardly less emphatic than the voiciferous approval of the public was that of the press, which unanimously praised the presentation. Widespread and insistent demands from musicians and public together with most encouraging results of his first Music Lovers' Ensemble, have led Deacon Johanson to undertake the present public entertainment, in memory of the late James Reese Europe, and tributes to orchestral combinations and music leaders of the day.

"Aunty Bon," as she was known to a host of friends, died at the Brooklyn Home for Aged Colored People, 1065 St. John's place, Monday, June 20. She had been an inmate of the home for 22 years. While there was no legal proof as to Mrs. Benjamin's claim of being 108 years old, in an interview with our reporter during the week of Feb. 14 last she stated that she still remembered the story told her by her mother that she was born on the same day or during the same year of the late Queen Victoria of England. She was born in Buckingham County, Va. This was in 1819 In that day and generation it was a great thing to have as your natal day the same date as a noted person, hence it is doubtful that such a story would have endured so long unless there was a truthful basis. Funeral services were held at the home Thursday A. M., June 22. The only known relatives that survive Mrs. Benjamin reside in St. Paul, Minn. In what has proved to be her last interview, "Aunty Een" stated that she had no special rules for long living, for she worked hard and was not particular about the hours she kept. Even though she was born in slavery the young people had fun, for after they had done their day's labor dances would be held which lasted until very late at night. Many years ago Mrs. Benjamin married in Savannah, Ga. Her husband has been dead a number of years. Shortly after Emancipation Mrs. Benjamin came to Brooklyn, where she acted as nurse for a number of well known families. Up to the time of her death a member of a wealthy white family sent her a check each month for her personal use. This party now resides in the borough of Manhattan.

Wednesday. July 6. 1927 INDICATIONS are that Josephine Baker, now Countess Pepito di Alba, has made a more auspicious wife on the sea of matrimony than a number of American white women of memory. Of course, Josephine, like so many American white women, can't go to Europe in quest of a title, husband, and the fact that she now is certainly must be as great a case to her as to everyone else. To a little contrary to the "he that seas, findeth" theory that so many women dote on, backed up by their accomplishments or wealth or both, annually seek titled husbands abroad of them find both title and hand and are happy ever after; women awake one fine morning to tell that they have a scheming wife, elephant on their hands, with or without a real title. ACCORDING to a cabled dispatch from home, Pepito comes from an old established family of Sicilian nobility. Her is governor of a town in Fri province, situated north of the capital, apparently, at least, had an expedition and some money before going Paris to woo Josephine. THIS NOBLE FAMILY, and public opinion, in both France and Italy, so far to be chagrimed that a Count taken an American Negro girl as a slave. In an interview, the father said that he knew of the projected marriage and approved of it, in the words: The New Countess INDICATIONS are that Josephine Baker, now Countess Pepito di Albertini, has made a more auspicious venture on the sea of matrimony than any number of American white women within memory. Of course, Josephine, unlike so many American white women, didn't go to Europe in quest of a titled husband, and the fact that she now has one certainly must be as great a surprise to her as to everyone else. This is a little contrary to the "he that seeketh, findeth" theory that so many white women dote on, backed up by their accomplishments or wealth or both, who annually seek titled husbands abroad. Some of them find both title and husband and are happy ever after; while others awake one fine morning to the fact that they have a scheming white elephant on their hands, with or without a real title. ACCORDING to a cabled dispatch from Rome, Pepito comes from an old established family of Sicilian nobility. His father is governor of a town in Friuli Province, situated north of the capital. Pepito, apparently, at least, had an occupation and some money before going to Paris to woo Josephine. THIS NOBLE FAMILY, and public opinion, in both France and Italy, seem not to be chagrined that a Count has taken an American Negro girl as his bride. In an interview, the father stated that he knew of the projected marriage and approved of it, in these words: "I'm glad of it, for she is a lovely, clever girl and my son likes the kind of life they will lead in the future. "I don't believe there is any question of her retiring from the stage. I have not met her, but my son has talked much of her since their first meeting in Paris last year. He gave up a job at home to win her nine months ago. "We don't have any racial feeling over here or in Sicily. Besides, my daughter-in-law is a Creole and no darker than many Southern European women. As to the rumor that they could get a divorce later on if the son thought better of it—that is nonsense. They both know we have no divorce and that the marriage tie and family life are sacred." FORTUNATELY or unfortunate America has no nobility; but if it gave one, a storm of protest would against the union, and more stalld entertain laws against the intir marriage of black and white people. Europe no comment has been aroused except on the bride's talents, beard extraordinary success in Paris. FORTUNATELY or unfortunately. America has no nobility; but if it did have one, a storm of protest would go up against the union, and more states would entertain laws against the intermarriage of black and white people. In Europe no comment has been aroused, except on the bride's talents, beauty and extraordinary success in Paris. Another Victory SEGREGATION in the public scho New Jersey has been dealt a decis row, in the decision of State Comm SEGREGATION in the public schools of New Jersey has been dealt a decisive blow, in the decision of State Commis- EDITORIAL PAGE sioner of Education John H. Logan, in the Toms River case. "That ultimately, however, the placing of children in such school was determined upon a color basis is evident from the fact that not only appellants but other Negro pupils were sent there, that no white children were ever placed among them, and no characteristics other than color were proved to be peculiar to appellants and in no way shared by the pupils who were left in the Toms River school so as to justify the exclusion of such appellants on other grounds." VICTORY in this case rightly goes the National Association for the Enforcement of Colored People, throu pose attorney, Engene R. Jayne, Justice was found in the New Jersey Supreme Court and before the Comm ander of Education. A Clairvoyant Jun TWO OF NEW YORK'S Negro Probe- nants stand convicted in the United States Court of accepting and inspiring to accept bribes, and h been sentenced to thirteen months e the Federal prison at Atlanta. The other agents—one white and the other colored—were freed, along with a last Indian, who is said to have be the collector for all four of the agen who were tried. THE VERDICT in the cases was st ing, to say the least, for the rea- t that the evidence on which it w used, apparently, concerned all five defendants. Under these cir- cumstances, it would not have been a s rise to anyone if all five had been for- ility, or if all five had been acquitt ed to convict two and free two of agents on the same evidence, to thing of freeing the supposed col- lor for the quartet, certainly put- ry in a class with clairvoyants. VICTORY in this case rightly goes to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through whose attorney, Eugene R. Jayne, the injustice was found in the New Jersey Supreme Court and before the Commissioner of Education. A Clairvoyant Jury TWO OF NEW YORK'S Negro Prohibition agents stand convicted in the United States Court of accepting and of conspiring to accept bribes, and have been sentenced to thirteen months each in the Federal prison at Atlanta. Two other agents—one white and the other colored — were freed, along with an East Indian, who is said to have been the collector for all four of the agents who were tried. THE VERDICT in the cases was startling, to say the least, for the reason that the evidence on which it was based, apparently, concerned all five of the defendants. Under these circumstances, it would not have been a surprise to anyone if all five had been found guilty, or if all five had been acquitted; but to convict two and free two of the agents on the same evidence, to say nothing of freeing the supposed collector for the quartet, certainly puts the jury in a class with clairvoyants. Much Ado GOVERNMENT officials have been arrested as all worked up over articles published in the Herald Tribune to correct that Soviet Russia is educating Negroes in communism looking toward uprising against the United States. The disclosures were seen at the State Department as the strongest possible indication of the department's settlement of not recognizing Russia," recurrent dispatch. AS A MATTER OF FACT, several individual Negroes have attempted for number of years to convert Negroes to communistic system of government in Russia, but with negligible result. Propaganda brought to Negroes these individuals is no different from that taken to white Americans with greater degree of success. Consequently it is almost inconceivable that all these years the State Department would give this as an excuse for recognizing the Soviet Republic. GOVERNMENT officials have been reported as all worked up over articles published in the Herald Tribune to the effect that Soviet Russia is educating Negroes in communism looking towards an uprising against the United States. "The disclosures were seen at the State Department as the strongest possible vindication of the department's settled policy of not recognizing Russia." reads a recent dispatch. AS A MATTER OF FACT, several individual Negroes have attempted for a number of years to convert Negroes to the communistic system of government in Russia, but with negligible results. The propaganda brought to Negroes by these individuals is no different from that taken to white Americans with a greater degree of success. Consequently, it is almost inconceivable that after all these years the State Department should give this as an excuse for not recognizing the Soviet Republic.

Joe Fortes was a colored man. His skin was as black as any African who was ever put up for sale in the Boston slave market. It is a far cry from the brutalities of slavery to the unveiling of a monument on this continent to a man whose race was subjected to those brutalities on this continent so few years ago. It is an indication not only that the people of Vancouver are willing to pay honor where honor is one, irrespective of race, creed or color, but that the stupid, cruel and vicious barrier against color is gradually being broken down. The great obstacle that colored people in North America have had to get over is the inferiority complex among them, induced by whites, who have permeated the doctrine of racial prejudice. What the colored people of America have achieved —and their achievements are of no little magnitude—has been done in the face of despair Joe Fortes' career, and the public's appreciation of his career, show that the old false standards of aristocracy are fast going by the board. Dorma, snobbery and caste are being froned out of society. The world is being forced to the conclusion that the only aristocracy is the aristocracy of achievement. Colorful News "Movies" Colorful News "Movies" By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE What Will Become of Them? "AFTER The Flood—What Then?" is the subject of an article written by J. B. Watson in the Southern Workman for July. In the mind of this writer, the most important issue that faces this country at present is: "the question of the future of this multitude of harried and benighted victims of the floods." He says: "This question applies to the white as well as the black people, but I refer to the black people especially, for their future is more uncertain." Well do we know, as a group, that the future of our unfortunate brothers and sisters of this stricken southland is most uncertain. The southern Negroes present is always more or less uncertain, and in this acute situation it is naturally more uncertain. With the waters of the Mississippi subsiding, and habitation being restored, what is to become of the poor Negro tenant? "Will the planters take the Negroes back to the plantations to feed and clothe until planting time in 1928? This is doubtful, for many planters are very heavy losers from the failure of the 1926 crop, and this blow will finish them for the present at least," says the writer. Speaking further, in his article, he says, "If these bewildered people do not go back to the plantation, where will they go?" The natural answer to this query is, they will migrate North or West. Already 25,000 race people are headed toward St. Louis from the stricken southlands, according to the press. But what of the general mass of this floating population? It is said, "there is not the demand for this type of labor in the North, at present, it seems." Mr. Watson writes, "Several doors are open to these people, but none especially invading." Negro labor may be exploited by those seeking cheap labor. These homeless folk may become scattered over the whole South to repopulate idle farms, or they may be left to drift for a while and eventually become a menace to themselves, their race had the country at large. In opposition to the belief of a single writer that, "eventually most of them will make their way back" to the delta section, every Negro knows that the desire for better treatment and a chance to live and work as other citizens, in a section of the country where lynchings are less prevalent, will drive northward every Negro who can rake and scrape up the necessary car fare. But Mr. Watson says: "The delta planters have 'blood in their eyes' for anyone who would further add to their ruin, by stealing away their labor." According to press dispatches, the South is now trying to stop Negro migration by legislation. Truly, what will be the future of this group? Like the children of Israel, must they wander around homestead for forty years, after sixty years of freedom from bondage?-Oh, Lord. How Long! Hello, Summer! THE advertisements of summer resorts has become a fine art of late years. The eye is pleased and the senses delighted with the pictures advertising the beautiful mountain and seaside attractions, many of them really making one feel cool, just for the looking. Vacation trails are calling us to follow where they lead, but this summer differs from past summers. Even though we must, take some recreation for mind and body, we both need them, and our fagging energies need renewing; can we, as a group, feel justified this year in making this lavish expenditure, in view of the suffering and needy condition of our own folks in the desolated Mississippi Valley? We are going abroad in large numbers. Many of us will go to the coast, the wilds of Canada, where one may breathe the air of freedom for a while, or to Atlantic City, and other playgrounds. But, let us remember these less fortunate brothers and sisters, on whom the hand of Fate seems to have fallen heavily. Homeless, with famine and pestilence on their trail, can we more fortunate ones neglect their cry for assistance? We, as a race, spend many thousands yearly at the summer resorts in spite of the race prejudice which has curtailed many of our pleasures, but despite this and other obstacles we spend when and where we can—LAVISHLY. The length of the purse is our only limit. This year suppose we spend a The super-competition of modern life is tearing down the walls of caste. To be honored today, a man must "deliver the goods."

There will be terrible want this winter among these victims, with no summer crops to rely on for winter provender. We who have must give to those who have not. Men, women and little children in the devastated regions are looking to the prosperous Negroes of the North and East for comfort and succor. Let us not disappoint them for our own selfish ends. Race Inferiority as Viewed with the Robustist by the Behaviorist THAT "the Negro is an inferior race and will always remain one" is a statement entirely and completely unproven, according to John B. Watson, noted behaviorist, in an article on "INSTINCT" appearing in the Harper's Magazine for July. In response to the further accusations of many biologists and other advocates of race inferiority, "that the southern Negro coming out of darkest Africa, and falling under the influence of the cultured southerner showed no rapid steps in putting on the culture," this psychologist declares. "The Negro has never been given a chance to develop." He says, "if you sent each and every Negro to Harvard and then through law and medicine, and gave him a year for travel, and a million dollars a year income, he would still not have an equal chance. Even in Boston or in Washington, the Negro would be still a Negro—he would still be made to feel his inferiority." Dr. Watson seems to feel that the present status of the American Negro is not due to any inherent inferiority of his race—but rather to the lack of proper opportunity. He thinks that the white man's Negro problem is not so much a matter of racial inferiority as a matter of definite race and color prejudice. Very clearly the writer states that no matter how much a Negro may learn, or how much culture or money he may acquire, from New England to Mason and Dixon's line he is made to feel that he is inferior. Even where he is given economic and political recognition, socially he remains inferior. The writer says there are certain instances where whites are willing to eat and drink and even revel with Negroes, "but let one Negro try to marry a son or daughter of any member of this clique and the devil's to pay" the inferiority complex comes into play here. In those countries where the social barriers are less rigid, the Negro has a more equal chance with the white, and speaking further in defense of the retardation of the Negro, Dr. Watson explains his lack of development in Africa, "where he was king." "Because where food, sex, and shelter offer no problems, there is nothing in the environment to force the trial and error movements that lead to discovery. Even white races dwelling in the tropics slow down." Regarding brain weight difference between the highly cultured races and those less civilized, the doctor says, "The truth is that, regardless of the status of culture, brain weight is proportional to body weight. The savage has a small brain weight because he has a small body." Whether most of the Nordic world is willing to accept these opinions of this "leader of the behaviorist school of psychology" is doubtful, but this fact is potent; Dr. Watson has shown his fairness, in his effort to make every possible allowance for those shortcomings charged to the Negro as traits of race inferiority. The Depopulation Spectre SEVERAL noted Nordic statisticians have recently stated that "The Negro population in the Northern industrial centers and cities does not reproduce itself" and that by 1858 the Negro population of the United States will be decreasing absolutely; and this will go on until the Negro, as a separate population, will have ceased to be a factor of importance." A glimpse of the U. S. Census Bureau's Statistical Analysis of Negro population will reveal the fact that the depopulation prophesy is merely a spectre. Probably its originators cherished a secret hope which was parent to the prophecy. As a matter of fact, the Negro in industrial centers is reproducing himself, and more than that. His death rate, at these points at least, is growing lower; and his birth rate higher than in past decades. His health is improving and his prospects for longevity, in comparison with competitive racial groups, are brightening. Depopulation has set in only in Southern farmlands, which are yielding up each year a goodly number of Negroes who are able to purchase railroad tickets to points North. Even this influence, however, is growing less and less, for the reason that those who have endeavored to stifle previous departures of Negro groups from the cotton and LETTERS Prominent Persons Will Judge Negro Ability in Creative Work Harmon Foundation Announces Second Annual Series of Awards in Which $4,000 and Gold and Bronze Medals Will Be Given — Nominations Close August 15 Persons distinguished in the fields of the arts, science, business, education and religion will make up the juries in the second of the annual William E.

It is indicated that, as between the years of 1910 and 1920, when the Negro population increased more than half a million, a new trend of increase will begin within the next few years. With restricted immigration and increased industrial opportunities, nothing else could be expected. In the meantime, if "crossing the line" could be averted, either by the removal of miscegenation laws of the South or the estopel of unethical practices instigated by the other group, which tend to bring about an indirect depopulation, through blood rather than through actual numbers, a greater menace to the Negro population than that caused by the actual lessening of population would have been removed. etition of modern life is tearing caste.

She has followed it with an account of South Africa itself—its background of history and its present-day conditions. While a South African, Mrs. Millin views her country dispassionately. She understands the viewpoint of the Englishman, the Boer, and to some extent the native. Her own standard is one of liberality to all races.

"Through their judgment," said Dr. Haynes, "based upon a comparison of the entries with the best achievement of its kind by either white or colored persons, the Harmon Foundation hopes to interpret the actual worth of Negro work, detached from the handicap of color. Since it is known as a disinterested organization, devoted to stimulating original achievements, it is believed that the series of awards it is sponsoring may give a substantial standing with both races to the exceptional work of the Negro and eventually bring about a relief from the oppression he now feels in economic circles. "The fact that Palmer C. Hayden, who, while earning his living as a housecleaner, was given last year's first award in the arts, has received a fund of $3,000 for study in Europe by a New York woman of means following his recognition, may be taken as indicative that this theory is taking hold."

It is reminiscent of our own country in the days of its youth, when the aborigines are treated to the "Century of Dishonor," of which Helen Hunt wrote years ago. But in South Africa the number of natives is so great and the amount of arable land so small, comparatively, that the suffering of the masses of black men exceeds anything the Indians knew. Mrs. Millin shows the various economic phases through which the country has passed—the pastoral stage, which still prevails in the Transvaal; the discovery of gold and diamonds; the importation of Indians; and the agricultural and commercial conditions at the present time. The white man exploits the native to the fullest extent, forbids by legislation his entrance into skilled labor, denies him the franchise, and is endeavoring to destroy competition in the one employment always open to him—domestic service. If the program presented by the Boers and the Labor Party goes through, the native servant's position economically will be worse than that of a slave. He will not possess economic freedom, and it will be to no one's interest to treat him decently. And yet Mrs. Millin ends by saying that he had better accept what he can get from this government. The white man has it in South Africa. He has the land, the best jobs, and the power. He does not, however, seem to excel in any profession, unless it be that of athlete. He leads a pleasant, out-of-door life in a beautiful climate. He is hospitable and kindly to his own class. If he lives in the Transvaal he is a little more overbearing to the Negro than if he lives in Cape Town. The aftermath of the Boer War has been a movement for a State independent of Great Britain. The Englishmen in South Africa usually oppose this. The Boers push it vigorously. The questionably the native will respond if he can no longer appeal to the English Parliament. But one should read Mrs. Mihlin's book to learn the various interests at work in this beautiful land that was conquered first by the Zulus, and then by the English and Dutch. It is a pleasant book to handle, with copious photographic illustrations. Pan-American Congress to Meet in August The Circle for Peace and Foreign Relations of New York City, with the co-operation of many persons and organizations throughout the United States, is calling a fourth Pan-African Connexion to meet in New York, August 21 to 24, 1927.
