Is the Coe Albertini, only a cabaret dance play the part of a count in Miss Baker claims, the descent Is Josephine Baker, star of the Folies-Bergere, really married, or is the story of her reported marriage only an advertising stunt? Is the Count de Salvatini, or Abatino, or Albertini, only a cabaret dancer and a no-count that was to play the part of a count in a moving picture, or is he, as Miss Baker claims, the descendant of a noble Sicilian family? A few days ago three English speaking papers, the Paris edition of the Chicago Tribune, the New York Herald, and the Continental edition of the London Daily Mail, carried stories to the effect that Miss Baker was married to the "Count." Later that day, accompanied by Dr. Charles H. Johnson of Atlanta, Ga., here on a visit, I called on Miss Baker at the Folies-Bergere, when in answer to a letter I had written her that morning she said: "Yes, we are married." Previously both Dr. Johnson and myself had been talking to the "Count," who was waiting for Miss Baker in a taxi, and he said that he had been married to Miss Baker. Among the things we wanted to know was whether the papers I represented were in Paris. This question he asked me several times; each time I told him that they were in America. Our introduction to the "Count" was made by Spencer Williams. Miss Baker also told me that the stories in the white papers were true, her only objection being the manner in which they showed her as speaking. Later Spencer Williams, well-known song writer, told us that he was a witness at the wedding, and, on Dr. Johnson's inquiry, told us several other things highly complimentary about Miss Baker. Two of these were that Miss Baker had saved more than seven million frames—the Count and herself being very careful managers—and that Miss Baker had bought a villa. (Continued on Page 5.)

The policeman has been stationed in the club since the arrest of a clerk there four weeks ago, and whose trial is set for July 22 before Magistrate McQuade. The club is in the Nineteenth A. D. Oscar H. Water, another Negro Democrat, washed his hands of Fannany Hall affiliation several months ago. "We have not had a fair shake since Mayor Walker became Mayor, and we are sick and disgusted with the way things are going." said Banks. "The regular Tammany district clubhouses are not raided, but they have ten times as much card playing as we have ever had at this club. If any club should be raided it is one of those where everything from dice games to roulette are running. We never have had anything in this clubhouse beyond a friendly game between members and behind closed doors." The Golden Democratic Club, incorporated February 7, 1921, has a paid-up membership of 275, without the women's auxiliary. "The Smith-Olvany Walker regime uses us as a political meal ticket without rendering an equivalent. The only way to teach the present bosses a lesson is to light them, and that is what the revolt means. Since Al Smith got the Presidential bee, Tammany has stopped remembering colored Democrats in the distribution of patronage. We demand the square deal, and if we cannot get it from Tammany we'll quit them. A good many thousands of our people have quit them already. Hylan told the gang downtown just where they get off. John F. has their number, from Walker to Untermyer straight down the line. There'll be a lot more of the same sort before snow flies." DETECTIVES DIVORCES, INVESTIGATIONS. Pte.

William Lloyd Ims officiating. Her body was viewed by many friends Friday night at her late home, 115 West 135th street, where she had lived for many years with an elderly cunt, Mrs. Mary Cisco. The deceased also leaves a cousin, who lives in the West. Miss Wilkes, who had complained of pains in the side for sometime, became suddenly ill Thursday night, June 30. She was rushed to the Edgecombe Sanitarium late that night and operated upon an hour later by her physician, Dr. Godfrey Nurse, 185 West 135th street Up until eleven o'clock last Wednesday morning hope was held out for her recovery. She had talked cheerfully with friends the day before, and her condition was reported as improving.

He is reported as having had a weak heart also, and this is believed to have hastened his death. Keith was employed for over eight years in the Grand Central Post Office, and was well known among the young people of Harlem. He is survived by his parents, a brother, and two sisters, Vivian Keith, who is a student at Hunter College, and Floretta Keith, who is studying at the Teachers Training School. Funeral services were held yesterday at the funeral chapel of Erie Miller, 64 West 127th street. The Rev. A. Clayton Powell, pastor of Abyssinian Church, officiated. A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, received a telegram from Edwin P. Morrow, member of the Board of Mediation, to leave for Chicago immediately to join a conference for the adjustment of the dispute between the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and the Pullman Company. This action followed Randolph's trip to Washington, where he had a conference with the secretary of the Board of Mediation on the status of the case of the brotherhood, and also relative to the source of the newspaper misrepresentation that the brotherhood's case had been turned down. In reply to the rumor about the board denying the wage petition of the brotherhood, Donald R. Richberg, attorney for the union and also for the twenty standard railroad unions, said "the board has no right or power to turn down the case of the porters. Its duty is to use its best efforts by meditation to bring about an agreement between the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and the Pullman Company." In the event that it falls to bring about such an agreement, it is then its duty to recommend arbitration. Sleeping Baby Burned to Death Man Charged With Setting Fire to Gasoline-Soaked Carriage While in an intoxicated condition Saturday afternoon, according to the police, Edward Brooks, 136 West 133d street, poured gasoline over a baby carriage in which lay the fourteen-months-old baby of Mrs. Elmer Winston of the same address, and before anyone could stop him he ignited the fluid and the child was burned to death. Detective Mathews of the Nineteenth Squad, who also lives in the same flat, was returning home at the time. As he approached the scene, he said, he saw the man pouring the fluid over the carriage, which was under the stoop. Before he could reach Brooks, he said, he had ignited the gasoline, and the flames quickly consumed the carriage and the baby. The incident occurred about 5.30 p. m. He placed Brooks under arrest, and he was arraigned in Heights Court Monday morning. Sisters Reported Insane Now Dead Mabel Jones, 27, died Thursday at Manhattan State Hospital, following the death of her sister, Viola McCann, 23, on July 5 at the same institution, where both of them had been taken July 2 from the Bellevue Hospital, where they had been admitted for observation. Mrs. McCann was buried from St. Charles' Catholic Church Thursday, the same day her sister died, and funeral services were held there also for Mrs. Jones 10 o'clock Monday morning. The Rev. Mr. Raxter, pastor of St. Charles' officiated at both services. The bodies were interred at St. Raymond Cemetery. Their case is unusual in that both sisters are said to have been taken mentally ill at the same time. CAPT. MEYERS FOUND BY ACCIDENT IN ROOM, UNCONSCIOUS Four Gas Jets of Kitchen Range Turned on Full Saved by Prompt Arrival of Pulmotor Squad Alonzo Meyers, 48, chiropractor and a former captain of the Fifteenth Infantry, who is believed to have attempted suicide Friday, has returned home after three days' confinement in Harlem Hospital. Meyers, the story goes, was found unconscious, lying on a couch in the kitchen of his apartment at 172 West 130th street, where the police found five gas jets turned on with windows and door tightly closed, after they had battered down the door about two o'clock in the afternoon, following a report of escaping gas. Working over his prostrate form for over an hour, the pulmotor squad from the 111th street emergency branch of the Consolidated Gas Company revived him. He was treated by Dr. Bakhdier, who had been summoned from Harlem Hospital by Patrolman Charles Lohman of the West 135th street station, who assisted in the resuscite. When seen at the hospital Friday night, Captain Meyers was fully conscious and his condition was reported as steadily improving. The man's life was undoubtedly saved by the timely arrival of an electric inspector, J. J. Hines, white, of the New York Edison Company. Hines said that, before Twas a War, All Right, but Who Hit First Blow Deas testified that he was dining in Sing's restaurant when the latter struck him in the face, knocking him to the floor. Sing, whose right eye was discolored, accused Deas of inflicting the discoloration with his list. Sing further charged that Deas hurled a sugar bowl at him, narrowly missing striking his head. Each accused the other of being the aggressor, but Magistrate Smith ruled it was a 50-50 altercation, and after finding both gaily released them with a suspended sentence. 22 PAGES FIVE CENTS PER COPY EVERYWHERE Complete in 3 Sections SET CTION HOWARD S TO REOPEN NEWARK CASE New York Lodges Contest Briefs—Con- ns Go On—J.

Both young men, originally from Philadelphia, were hired at the hospital on June 29 at a ten-dollar-a-week-three-meals-a-day salary. The working hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. According to Small, they are due to receive their present salary and a room in the dormitory, or $60 a month with meals and room in the city. They have asked several times for a room and each time the answer has been "There are no rooms vacant for colored." Last week, however, a new white orderly was hired at the hospital. Again, according to Small's statement, this orderly was given a room at once and he says there's space in the dormitory. Yet Brown and Small have never been given a room. SECTION ONE Attorneys Francis E. Rivers Hope E. Billups and Secretary Charles M. Hanson appeared in the Federal Court at Newark Friday morning and successfully contested briefs filed by Attorney Howard praying for a dismissal of the case. Under the briefs as prepared by the grand lodge attorney, the New Yorkers' case would have been dismissed and the matter of the convention would have gone back to the status where it was before federal Judge Clark enjoined the grand exiled ruler from taking the convention to Cleveland. The case will again be argued in the Federal Court at Newark, Representing Mr. Wilson and the grand lodge at that time will be Arthur Free, reorder of dead, for the District of Columbia and an attorney of West Virginia, Attorney Martin of Cleveland, and Attorney Howard.

The confinement in the firehouse building barred escape down the stairways. No one was injured, and, except for smoke, the tenements suffered no damage. The blaze was confined to the cellar by firemen under the direction of Deputy Chief "Smoky Joe" Martin. The fire was a most difficult one to fight, as the cellar was divided into almost a score of little sub-cellars, separated from each other by wooden partitions. Two alarms were turned in, and the blaze threatened to assume serious proportions. The cause of the fire is unknown, but Jane's Dress Shop estimates that the loss will run well into five figures. A civilian turned in the first alarm — Chief George Webb — turned in the second. Astoria Junk Dealer in Hospital With Numerous Stab Wounds in His Body Mrs. Hattie Merino, 23, 110 West 134th street, was held in S.5,000 bail for a hearing on July, 14, when arraigned before Magistrate Smith in the Harlem Court on a charge of assault and robbery.

NATHAN ZOLINSKY 2256 SEVENTH AVE. Bet. 134th and 135th St. Credit Extended to People With Reference Telephone Bradhurst 612 TWO --- Three others under arrest are: Mrs. Emma Koach and Simon Fuentes, 19 East - 134th street, and Waverly Epps of 2253 Seventh avenue. They are held without bail and will also be arraigned on July 14. The arrests were made by Detectives McCroahan and Sommers of the East 126th street station, who told the magistrate that three of the four under arrest have been identified by Sio as his assailants. Fuentes, the detectives informed the Court has not been identified and, unless additional evidence is secured to connect him with the alleged crime, he will in all probabilities be discharged. Sito told the police that Mrs. Roach invited him to her home and a short time later accused him of stealing $15 from her. Mrs. Roach summoned Epps, who was in an adjoining room and he demanded to return the money to Mrs. Roach. Just then Mrs. Merino entered the Roach apartment and, when Sito denied taking any money from Mrs. Roach, Epps is alleged to have struck him on the head with the butt end of a revolver. Sito put up a fight and was getting the better of the tussle when both women, the police say, grabbed and held Sito while Epps attacked him with a knife, inflicting about 22 stab wounds about his head, face and arms. Sito fell to the floor. His pockets were then riffed, the police charge, and $200 which he had concealed in his sock in a small tobacco poach was stolen from Sito. The police charge that Stio was then carried out of the apartment placed in a taxicab and driven to Central Park, where he was thrown out. He was found unconscious in the park and hurried to Harlem Hospital. Mrs. Merino, when arrested at 184th street and Lenox avenue, is said by the detectives to have confessed her part in the alleged assault and robbery. She implicated Mrs. Roach and Epps. It was the latter, she said, who used the knife and revolver on Stio. Mrs. Merino cooperated Fuentes from any blame and declared he was not in the apartment at the time. Rev.

Pulmotor Squad Saves Meyers' Life (Continued from Page 1) going into the flat, which Meyers is said to own, he had decided to "knock off and call it a day." A sudden impulse, the said, changed his mind, and he decided "to do one more house." Arriving at Meyer's door on the top floor, he said, the odor of escaping gas was very strong. A woman in a neighboring apartment had told him that she had smelled gas since early in the day. Receiving no response to his knocks, confirmed his and the neighbor's apprehensions, he descended to street and notified Patrolman Lehman, he said, and they returned to the apartment and Lehman crashed in the door. After leaving the room in the nicely furnished apartment, Meyers was found lying on the window couch in the kitchen. All five fives to the kitchen range were on, he said, and the windows and the door were closed. Officera E. Kelly and Berthella Gray of the pulmotor squad administered treatment for one hour. Upon their arrival Meyers' pulse is said to have been very low and, when Dr. Bakkter sent him to Harlem hospital, he reported his chest was weak, but his condition as improving. Someone notified Meyer's sister-in-law, Rose Ellis, 21st West, 143d street, and she rushed to him. According to Mrs. Ellis, Caprain Meyers was born in Philadelphia and has been in New York City for about eight years. He was recently employed in the Post Office Department, she said. When Mrs. Ellis was asked for a possible motive for her brother-in-law's assault, exempt suicide, she replied that the incident might have been caused by drinking heavily. Mr. Meyers, however, when interviewed at Harlem Hospital, said that he had not been drinking at the time. The entire incident seemed rather strange and hazy to him. He said that his wife had died in 1952 and his year and it had occasioned him a large amount of worry. He admitted that of late his worry had increased. He was asked if he had We Need SPACE!

"Just at this time," he said, "I cannot say whether I attempted suicide or not. It probably was an accident and maybe I did it myself I don't know." He had had no other worries, he said, except those concerning his wife; and he remarked that, since her absence, he had lived alone in the apartment. Captain Meyers was a member of the Ninth Cavalry in 1898 and also a sergeant in the 201st Machine-Gun Battalion. In 1922 he graduated from the New York College of Chiropractics. Philadelphians will probably remember him as a 1917 graduate of the Manual Training School. Captain Meyers has held several prominent positions in the government service including Tenement Inspector, Assistant to the Clerk of Registered Mall in the U.S. Post Office, and Assistant United States District Marshal, having recently resigned the latter position to accept another position. In every competitive examination for these positions he is said to have carried the highest marks. At one time he was also a member of the Philadelphia police force. He and his wife are said to own the property at his present address. Mrs. Meyers, who is well known as a modist, is said to be in Chicago.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 13, 1927 Friendly Game Leads to Murder Friendly Game Leads to Murder (Continued from Page 1) field, 264 West 129th street Henry Stallings, 31, 108 West 18th street, and Benjamin Tobias, 50, 2148 Seventh avenue, both bricklayers, were the participants. Stallings is said to have slashed Tobias behind both ears, severing his jugular vein, resulting in his death at Harlem Hospital a half-hour later. Stallings was also badly cut, and after being treated at the hospital was taken to prison, where he awaits a hearing today in the Homicide Court According to the story Stallings related to the police, he and Tobias, who had worked on many jobs together, visited the Bransfield apartment after their day's work and indulged in their payday pastime, a game of craps. They soon became involved in an argument, he said, and Tobias drew a knife on him. They went to the street to have it out. Because of his friend's advanced age, Stallings said he defended himself with his fists. The pair fought from one side of the street to the other, and no one in the crowd that gathered attempted to interfere. The old man soon had the odds on him, he said, and someone in the crowd slipped him a knife with the words, "Go ahead and protect yourself, Henry." He accepted the proffered aid, he said, and the fatal stabbing then occurred. He is said to have stabbed Tobias three times behind both ears, cutting his jugu lar vein. Tobias dropped on the stoop of 2324- West 129th street, bleeding profusely. Stallings then ran back to 264 and up to the roof. In the meanwhile, a telephone call had been received at the West 129th street station, and Patrolman Arthur Meenan rushed to the scene and found Tobias lying in a great pool of blood. Going to the root of 264, he found Stallings cringing behind a chimney. Meenan placed him under arrest without difficulty, for Stallings was also weakened from the loss of blood An ambulance was called from Harlem Hospital, and both men taken there for treatment, Tobias dying a half hour later. Stallings suffered several gashes about the face and neck. A bloody knife was found in his possession, Meehan said, and the same was found beside the body of Tobias. Both knives were of the type that飞 open by pressing a button on the knife. Stallings wept while he related the alleged killing of his best friend. Hold Funeral of Mattie V. Wilkes Hold Funeral of Mattie V. Wilkes (Continued from Page 1) worse just before noon on Wednesday, when she complained of feeling very, very sleepy, and died later the same afternoon. Dr. Nurse reported her death to be the result of a ruptured gangrenous appendicitis. The attendance at the church funeral included every stage name that could possibly attend. Leigh Whipner, William H. Des Verney, Leon Williams, Albert Jackson, Wesley Hill, Lincoln Forman, Walter Bryant and Joe Grey were honorary pallbearers. Lawrence Chenault, Abbie Mitchell, Walter Conick and Mme. Robinson read resolutions. The flower bearers were members of the "Lulu Belle" company. Charles "Fats" Waller was seated at the organ, and vocal solos were rendered by Charles Downes, Miss Elsie Robinson, Arthur Paync and William Elkins. Miss Wilkes was born in Columbia, Tenn. The family later moved to Chicago, where she became a teacher in the Sunday Schools. Her stage career, which reads like a theatrical blue book of outstanding Negro stage successes, began in Chicago. Her fame became international, she having sung and acted before most of the crowned heads of Europe, as well as in all of the principal cities of this country. Her quarter-century career also included special appearances in Russia, where she spent seven years. Miss Wilkes was the widow of Ernest Hogan, in whose show she appeared some years ago. Her appearance in October's "Red, Red Rose" made that production famous. It is said. In the role of prima donna she sang and danced her way into the hearts of the public in Williams and Walker's productions, the Smart Set Company, "Snuffle Along," and others. She was also a member of the cost of "Lulu Bolly" the Belasco Broadway success. At her bier were many beautiful floral tributes expressive of the warm place she held in the heart of her innumerable friends.

According to Burke, he is known to take his siesta every day between three and five o'clock, and it is known also that he keeps a little cash in the house. Parker and Davis paid him a visit, he said, which he first thought was a friendly call until both men drew guns on him. By a happy coincidence, Detectives Boyden and Nelson, also of the West 135th street station, were to meet Burke at his home at 3:30 p.m. They arrived while Parker and Davis were about to make off with the cash. With drawn guns the detectives attempted to arrest the man, but they resisted and a healthy russle ensued. Detective Nelson shot Parker in the left lung and thigh and Detective Burke was slashed on the left hand with a dirk. Parker then engaged Detective Burke at close quarters and is said to have pulled out a knife and slashed him across the left hand. Detective Nelson came to his rescue by shooting Parker in the left lung and thigh. Davis was subdued by Detective Boyden, who searched him and found a black-jack and gun. The ambulance was called and Dr. Gray of the Knickerbocker Hospital responded and treated Burke and Parker. Parker was then sent to the Harlem Hospital, where his condition is said to be serious. Davis was arraigned in Heights Court Monday morning. FUND SOLICITED FOR ST.

The woman's arrest followed her alleged striking of Mrs. Gibson over the head with an umbrella, after Mrs. Gibson had resented being jostled by the woman in the five and ten-cent store at 256 West 15th street about 3:30 Thursday afternoon. Patrolman Dorman was then called in, and the woman was placed under arrest. The police files are said to show that Miss Medina escaped from the county jail in New Hampshire, Conn., on July 30, 1919.

JULY 13. 1927 Women to Sponsor Pan-African Meet Women to Sponsor Pan-African Meet Hold Preliminary, but Lively, Meeting of Y.W.C.A. The fourth Pan-African Congress—to be held August 21-24 in New York City—should be a more successful conference than the three which preceded it. Why? The women are sponsoring this one. The others were sponsored by men. The committee of prominent women back of the forthcoming congress held a supper conference with interested men and women at the Y. W. C. A. Friday evening, and if prejudiced-minded West Indian and American Negroes don't throw a monkey-wrench in the machinery, all may go well and the congress be the success its sponsors hope for it. At the meeting Friday Dr. W. E. B. DuBulbs presided and in a few preliminary remarks told of previous meetings of the congress and what he thought such an organization could accomplish. He then introduced and called upon Chief Nana Amoun III of the Gold Coast, who expressed his dislike for Liberians; Mrs. Helen Curtis, recently returned from Liberia, and whose husband died as minister to that country, who told of her work with the Liberian children, and then the Rev. Charles Martin of the Moravian Church in West 136th street, a West Indian. The Pan-African meeting then became a West Indian-American Negro proposition to the disgust of most West Indian and American Negroes present. The Rev. Dr. Martin evidently didn't set so well with Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age, the next speaker, and in vellied language Mr. Moore said so. In his remarks, Dr. DuBois spoke of the necessity of an understanding among all Negroes everywhere in the world—the very thing lacking among those present at the meeting. Other speakers include: George Whecain and the Rev. George Frazier Miller of Brooklyn; Mrs Caseley Hayford, Sierra Leone, W. E.; Edgar M. Grey, New York City; Engg. K. Jones, Flushing, L. I. The Circle for Peace and Foreign Relations is a woman's organization from which the committee was selected. Its officers are: Mrs. Addie Hunton, president; Mrs. Lillian Alexander, first vice-president; Mrs. Sadie Stockton, second vice-president; Miss Dorothy Peterson, secretary; Mrs. Eunice Hunton-Curter, assistant; secretary, and Mrs. Minu Trotman, treasurer. On the executive committee of the fourth Pan-African Congress are: Mrs. Hunton, Mrs. Alexander, Mrs. Carter, Mrs. Temple J. Burge, Miss Frances Gunner, Mrs. Nina G. DuBois, Mrs. Mlnle M.A, Pickens, Mrs. Stockton, Mrs. Annie M. Dingle and Mrs. Lottie Cooper. 11 Flood Refugees Drowned NEW ORLEANS. July 8.

She was held without bail for a further hearing this Friday. According to the testimony, about a month ago there was a party in the Hodgson apartment, which is right over the Johnson apartment. Mrs. Johnson complained that noise made at the party disturbed her rest, and it is said that the two women quarreled over the incident. They have fussed at each other every time they met, it was testified, and the aggregate arguments culminated in the alleged assault. Mrs. Hodgson testified that she met Mrs. Johnson in the hallway of the flat Thursday afternoon, and after a few cross words between them, Mrs. Johnson, she said, attempted to attack her with a knife. In the scuffle to protect herself, Mrs. Hodgson said, Mrs. Johnson was cut. Wilfred Butler Held for Hearing Former Knights Templar Head Charged With Larceny Charged with petty larceny, Wilfred G. Butler, N. 2207. Seventh avenue, formerly right eminent grand commander, Knights Templar (Prince Hall), was released in $260 ball Friday in Heights Court before Magistrate McQuade, who adjourned the case until tomorrow. On complaint of Frank Shiley, 150 West 140th street, former secretary of Ascension Commandery of the Prince Hall Masons, Butler appeared in Heights Court on a summons, which charged that he refused to turn over certain books of the order which were given to him by Shiley when the latter was suspended from his position as secretary. A complaint was drawn on Thursday. Dr. Roind P. Johnson of Brooklyn was elected in a year ago to succeed Butler, it is said, but Butler states that his election was illegal and still considers himself grand commander.

As that time draws near, the outlook for an amicable settlement appears bright, notwithstanding the apparent attempt on the part of the grand exalted ruler to put it over on the New Yorkers last week. Mr. Wilson is expected in New York one day this week for a final conference and a final signing of agreements insuring to New York the big convention. That the grand exalted ruler's word is not strongly relled on was evidenced at the meeting of the executive committee of the local convention committee held Saturday night at Imperial Home in West 19th street. A report read that night by Secretary Charles M. Hanson tended to show that Mr. Wilson had repudiated every promise and had on every occasion attempted to do the very things he promised and agreed not to do. Secretary Hanson's report showed that after the grand exalted ruler had said that everything was not all right, when he was seen by Caspar Holstein and Joseph Brown, who went to Washington at the instance of the New York committee, he deliberately sponsored proceedings in the Federal Court on Thursday, July 7, looking to a dismissal of the New Yorkers' case restraining the grand exalted ruler from calling the convention to any other city than New York. CONVENTION PLANS GO ON. Notwithstanding the confusion and the unestimated attendant to the coming convention, the man who have fought the fight here in New York for the convention are going on with their convention plans. "On to New York" posters are now out and have been sent to the various lodges throughout the county, detailing the various doctrines incidental to the convention of 1927. In addition, the railroad is issuing special rates to New York from various points through out the country. More and more it becomes evident that the convention will be held in New York, or it will not be held anywhere. STTELE VIOLENTLY DEFOCES SETTLEMENT. J. Balmus Steele, prominent New York E&I and a candidate for grand elected ruler, expressed himself as unmistakably opposed to any settlement with J. Finley Wilson. He said that the sending of Caspar Hortstein and Blendy Brown to Washington to treat with Mr. Wilson was an act on the part of the New York committee that tended to show its subsistence to the will of the grand exalted ruler. Mr. Steele said—and in no uncertain manner—that he, for one, would never by any word or act permit the impression to be gained that Mr. Wilson and his cohorts had gained any sort of a legal victory over the New York committee. The general committee, however, does not share in these views and is willing to go to great lengths to insure to the people of New York the coming convention. Students to Discuss Economic Conditions "The Economic Condition of the Negro in the United States" is the subject to be discussed at the third annual conference of The Inter-colllege Club of New York at Yotter, N.

KESSLER Paris Newspapers Ignored Report Paris Newspapers Ignored Report (Continued from Page 1.) in Monte Carlo. The only people who would be found speaking against Miss Baker, said Williams, are the colored people in Paris. We left with the firm conviction that Miss Baker was married to the count. One fact struck me at the time, none of the French papers carried anything about the marriage, except in the advertisement carried in them by the Folies-Bergere. This read in English: The truth: The black star, Josephine Baker, has made only a white marriage and she will continue to appear in 'A Burst of Folly' at the Folies-Bergere." Three days later, however, one of the leading French papers carried on its front page (issue of June 26), the following story of which this is a correct translation: It was a trick: Josephine Baker is a Countess only in name. Has Josephine Baker really become Countess d'Albertini, as the newspapers say? That is what we have asked the dancer, who received us with a great burst of laughter, followed, it is true, with a little confusion. "Yes, I am a Countess," she told us at first. Then with a little pirouette she added: "At Mast in the movies—a movie play that Maurice Dekobra has written and still without a title, and in which my very nice manager, Pepito Albertini, and I are going to play. "Listen, do you know a gentleman with brown mustache, who resembles Adolphe Menjou? It's he, my husband in the films, isn't it? "Then how amusing it was to be married. I have even let the city believe that story a little. Ah, how false news spreads! What I told several friends as a joke all the world has taken as serious." She pouted as a frolicsome child who fears to be chided. "Will the public be angry, you think? It has been so nice." Her voice became almost suppliant. "How funny it is to be coiled.

Come in for an examination TODAY! It will save you hours of pain and many dollars. all young girls have a desire to be called 'Mrs.' some time? "They are already talking of getting me a divorce." A burst of laughter. "Don't you think it would be difficult to get a divorce with the film still unfinished, since I am 'Mrs.' only in the film?" And she concluded laughing: "What is perhaps true, is that that is the best way of getting married after all." Reading this article, I at once called at the American Embassy where the "Count and Countess" were said to have been married by Ambassador Herrick. "Ridiculous!" I was informed there, "even the son of the ambassador couldn't be married here. Next I went to the American Consulate, where I met George W. Mitchell, native of North Carolina, who has been a receiver in the consular service for twenty-one years. "They were not married here," he said, "and what's more, four French detectives have come here to find out if the story is true. Miss Baker gets a big salary. I understand, and a change of name would make a difference in her income tax. The detectives tell me that they have searched every mayor's office in the city, and there is no record of any marriage. Besides, if Miss Baker was married, don't you think it would be at the Italian Consulate?" My next visit was to the office of the Daily Mail to hear how they had got the story as well as the picture of the dancer and the alleged count. "I am glad I didn't touch that story," said the editor, "It was just an advertising trick. I am glad that we said under the picture that we got the story from the Tribune. At the Tribune I saw the editor, Mr. Ragner. "We have lost all confidence in Miss Baker," he said, "we heard of the story, and sent a reporter down there. He asked Miss Baker if she were really married, and she said, 'Yes, don't you think it is a wonderful thing?' And so we carried the story, believing it to be true." At the office of the Herald I heard a similar story. "There was a big bunch of reporters down at Miss Baker's cabaret." said the editor. It will be noted, however, that not a single French paper carried the story of the alleged marriage. Shortly before I had called on Miss Baker and she had told me NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY. JULY 13. 1927 that she was engaged to an Italian count, who is an artist; she also said that she had been offered $1,500 a week in some place, Vienna, I think, though people would hardly believe that to be true. The fact is that she has told every reporter, including myself, that she had married a count . . . a story that now seems to be highly improbable, and only an advertising stunt that the management of the Folles quickly capitalized. The truth is that Miss Baker has been steadily losing vogue in Paris. When I visited the poles I was much disappointed to find that it was not she, but English dancer, Jack Sanders, who was the hit of the show. Her dancing was not as good as that of many girls I have seen at the Lincoln or the Lafayette in New York, though I heard that her dancing last year very good. When I arrived in Paris, a lady who knows Miss Baker well said that the account carried about her last year in the New York World, and reproduced in all the colored papers, were grossly exaggerated. The general impression is that the present incident is going to do her a great deal of harm. The English-speaking editors are, of course, all angry over the incident, and to indulge in a little free language, you can't kill them for that. Finally, just before mailing this I called at the Folles-Bergere and saw Spencer Williams, who admitted that the Paris-Soir was right. "The story of the marriage was just an advertising ruse," he said, "though when Miss Baker announced it that night I really thought it was true." In the meantime "the Count." who is only a minor employee in a department of the Italian government, is much worried over the unfair for reasons which shall be nameless. As was said, he asked me several times which paper I represented.

In these as in practically all other building developments in coloured Y. M. C. A. service during the fifteen years, the gifts and influence of Jubilee Greenwald, Lord of Sears, Roebuck & Co., China, have been an important feature he has repeatedly given to the individual building campaigns on condition that the part of the funds be contributed locally. Dr. Channing H. Toledor secretary of the Colleged Young Men's Department of the Y. M. C. A. states. I attended the participation of the wounded in Negro uplift the individual service to the cause since that rendered by Louis Lincoln. For not only I made possible nineteen from Y. M. C. A. buildings, four W. C. A. buildings, and nearly ninety school buildings, but has so conditioned his gifts that two were drawn into cohort in securing the tide and into cooperative op- tion and control by them after CURRENT BUILDING DELORMENTS. Data supplied at the New York University of the Colored Men's De- partment by Dr. Tobias and by Dr. B. Frantz, who has dis- tributed numerous campaigns, show the following: Connections for a $225,000 building at Buffalo, N. Y. and a $175,000 building at Atlantic City, N. J. were laid in June. A building at Layton, Ohio, to cost $195,000, and one at Mountairn, N. J., to cost $150,000, are in process of erection. All are expected to be ready in the fall or early winter. In connection with the building fund at Buffalo, the Colored Y. M. C. A. received from George B. Marines of that city a trust fund of $100,000. The citizens of Winston-Salem, N. C. have agreed to raise from $150,000 to $200,000 for the erection of a building on property pur- posed by the colored group, who raised $150,000 instead of the Colony which they had pleaded. In the recent New York City building campaign the Negro citizens raised $8,000 of a $100,000 deposit, which they expect to complete in the course. With aid from the general development fund being raised in this city, planned ultimately to expand $750,000 in the expansion of property, housing, service for colored men and boys. Building campaigns are in progress at Extension, Ill.; Hartford, Covn.; Hartburg, Pa., and Jacks'sattle, Fla. NOTABLE BUILDING AT LOS ANGELES The building for colored men and boys at Los Angeles, Calif., completed in 1826, is regarded by some architectural authorities as the most beautiful Y. M. C. A building in the country. Designed by Paul Williams, a Nekro graduate of the University of California, he combined beauty and practical character were such that William was called upon to design the Association building for white boys planned for Hollywood. Buildings exclusively devoted to color for colored men and boys are located at some twenty points. New all those in Central West Side and Denver provide dormitory accommodations for Pull-mat holders. A dormitory building in Chicago is devoted entirely The colored Y. M. C. As of this country embrace a membership of about 25,000. Approximately two-thirds of this number are found in the industrial and railroad associations and the rest in the number organizations. Moscow and American Negroes THERE are very few Negro Communists in the United States. More than a tenth part of the American population are Negro people, but not even a twentieth part, perhaps not one-fifthth, of American Communists are Negroes. And yet, because some New York newspaper has just "discovered" the names and addresses of a few of these colored Communists, there is a great alarm and cry of, "Help! Murder! Congress must do something about it!" The fact is: the newspapers have not "discovered" anything except to those people who are very ignorant of colored people's affairs. It is well known that there are some Negro Communists and the constant wonder is that there are not more, considering the status of colored Americans. And it is also known that these Communists, like all other party politicians, have been doing, and will doubtless continue to do, what they can to convert others to their way of thinking. But the outstanding fact is what the capers do not seem to care to emphasize. That a much smaller proportion of Negroes than whites have heeded the call of Communism, in spite of the relatively much more unfavorable situation of the Negro population. It need not be forgotten that similar alarming missailments were made concerning "German propaganda" among American Negroes during the World War. In order to make this Russian menace sound still more alarming, one newspaper, speaking of Nicoon students that have gone to be educated in the "Eastern University" at Moscow, says: "From 60 to 100 of these instruments of propaganda have been shipped out of the United States" etc. Annual University Day This Sunday The annual University Day exercises will be held at the St. James Presbyterian Church on Sunday, when a program will be given by students and graduates of the leading colleges and universities of the country.

ONLY FIVE AMERICAN NEGRO STUDENTS, after a long campaign, could be induced to take advantage of the Soviet Government's world-wide offer for people to come and study under free scholarships in their university at Moscow; but more than 1,200 other students of other colors accepted—white, yellow, Eastern [Name] and Western (American white people, English white people, German white people, French white people, and many peoples from Asia). Only ONE NEGRO FROM AFRICA! A accepted. One of the five American Negro students died, so that the remaining "peril" is: one African, four live American Negroes and one dead one. What a menace this is to the Government and people of these United States! The Russian Government asked for only twelve American Negro students at the time—and all the hard efforts of American Communists could find only five that would accept. And that is how "three black crowns," when traced to the "source," becomes Arrows By R. A. ADAMS At Close of Day A T close of day, kneel thou and pray: "Father, who art in heaven."

At close of day, kneel down and pray: Forgive mine enemies; Help me, also, mercy to show, And their iniquities Against me, by Thy strength Divine, Forgive as Thou forgives mine.

The implication is that health is of such a delicate nature that it may deteriorate in a day; that this deterioration may prove disastrous if neglected, hence the necessity for weighing every day. But the whole matter has more than physiological significance—it is applicable to every department of our complex natures. Our mental health. like our physical health: is subject to fluctuations and deteriorations. In regard to the physical, the progress is generally insidious and deceptive, yet sometimes conditions are reversed and changes are sudden and radical. This necessitates daily stock-taking, daily balance weighing. "Have You Weighed Today?" means have you given careful attention to your moral equipment? Are you conscious of your moral strength or weakness? Have you considered status in the light of accepted moral standards and mind, mind. Mental weighing includes and involves examination of mental habits and tendencies; mental channels of activities; disposition toward mental phlegmatism, or mental industry; and, perhaps, chief of all tendency toward mental crand, a matter upon which so very much depends. Then, it would be well, nay more, it is necessary that we take daily our moral weight, determine our moral status, the direction of moral inclinations. Upon these will depend both our own moral development and the character of our influence over the lives and destinies of others. In this particular, the question jda "something not quite as black as a crow." But now for the philosophy of the matter: We inspect that the reason why so much noise is made, whenever anybody is reported, to be trying to "arouse" American Negroes, is the fact that most American whites feel deep down in their souls, that the Negroes ought to be aroused. We fear those whom we oppress; we are afraid that they may do what we think they ought to do. Not a single newspaper (with the exception, strange to relate, of one newspaper of Richmond, Va., which commented on the radical leanings of the Negro Labor Congress two years ago), has emphasized this point: that the way, and the only way, to prevent Moscow or somebody else from ultimately arousing the American Negro is to treat the Negro with more justice. A people, treated as Negroes are treated in America, is certainly (as is stated by a Cincinnati paper, but in a different spirit) "the weakest place in the American armour." If the American Negro proves, ultimately, to be more open to "foreign" intrigues than are other elements of the population, it will be the failure of America rather than of the Negro. The Negro is but human. After all. The Cincinnati paper says the Russians have picked the weakest place in the American armour, and goes on to say, with an apparently different motive than that with which we are quoting them, that "it's high time the American people realized it." It is indeed high time that the American white people should realize that in saving the nation against the entrance of any foreign influence through the Negro population, more good can be done in one year by defending the Negro against being burned alive in Mississippi and Missouri and from Jim-crowism and insult in Cincinnati than could ever be done in a generation of "acts of Congress" and activities of the Department of Justice. intention and patronage the make- scales have printed on them significant question.

We live but a day at a time; every day is fraught with its own duties and responsibilities; once the day has passed it is passed forever.

OXLEY Jose Maria Y Campuzano Heredia, Poet and Historian (1803-1839) IN THE polychrome symphony of Cuba Heredia's voice became heard as a cry, despair, and liberty. Jose Maria Y Campuzano Heredia was bribe de Cuba on December 31, 1803. He stole the University of Havana and was called to 1823. He has been called by a Spaniard, "the and epitome of all emmity toward Spain." But garled himself as a Spaniard and refers in Spain as "Tender Mother." As a partisan, the liberals who supported in 1920 the revolt Rafael del Riego, he wrote burning lines against pressor of Iberia," and called Spain stupid consented to oppression and to the death of poet's language, however, was later applicable critical situation in Cuba. IN THE polychrome symphony of Cuban literature Heredia's voice became heard as a cry of anguish, despair, and liberty. Jose Maria Y Campuzano Heredia was born at Santiago de Cuba on December 31, 1803. He studied law at the University of Havana and was called to the bar in 1823. He has been called by a Spaniard, "the compendium and epitome of all enmity toward Spain." But Heredia regarded himself as a Spaniard and refers in his verses to Spain as "Tender Mother." As a partisan, however, of the liberals who supported in 1920 the revolution led by Rafael del Riego, he wrote burning lines against the "opressor of Iberia," and called Spain stupid because she consented to oppression and to the death of Riego. The poet's language, however, was later applicable to the political orientation in Cuba. Herdia was involved in the first attempt at insurrection in Cuba, which occurred in 1823. He was a member of the society known as the Soles de Bélgica, who plotted to obtain peace for Cuba through the assistance of Mexico and Columbia. But Heredia, though born in Cuba, had come to manhood in a more braiding moral environment. His father was a government official, who had acted as chief judge of the court in Caracas in the days when Venezuela was trembling under the tyranny of Monteverde. The elder Heredia felt such sympathy for the victims of official prosecution, and, in his capacity as magistrate, showed such consideration for them that suspicion of complicity in the revolution fell on his own head—he was transferred to a much more position in Mexico, where he died in 1820. Of his father, the poet wrote in his poem dedicated to his memory: "In your charge you took my education and never to others' hands entrusted my tender childhood. Love for all men, fear of God you inspired in me, and harred of atrocious tyranny." In the fall of 1825 the young poet was arrested as being one of the conspirators against the Spanish Government and was sentenced to ostracism for life. He took shelter in the United States, where he published a volume of his poems in New York. When banished he wrote from the North: "I am free, but what cruel change! The winter's wind is roaring; upon its wings files the piercing cold. The inert world suffers the tyranny of cruel winter. My ear hears not the voices of my friends, but only the barbarian sounds of a foreign idiom. But it is not weared by the insolent tyrant, nor the grudge of the slave, nor the grudge of the whip which pollsens the air of Cubs. At night, in the light of the silvery moon and the delicious poison of the lemon invite rejoice, a thousand thoughts of more beyond my mind." In 1825 Heredia journed to Mexico, where, being naturalized, he was given a position as magistrate. He published in 1832, at Toluca, a collection of his poems, and in 1836 was granted permission from the Spanish Government to visit his mother and sisters in Cuba for two months. He returned to Mexico and died May 6, 1839. Heredia was a poet of the patriotic type. Alberto Lista calls him a great poet; "the fire of his soul has passed into his verses and is transmitted to his readers." The fact that the poet died young is not to be overlooked. Yet he left behind him some excellent compositions that are --- Sophony of Cuban literature heard as a cry of anguish. To Heredia was born at San 31. 1803. He studied law at and was called to the bar in a Spaniard, "the compendium award Spain." But Heredia reed and refers in his verses to As a partisan, however, of 1920 the revolution led by burning lines against the "opposed Spain stupid because she to the death of Riego. The is later applicable to the po- filled with modulations as well as fire of hatred. It is apparent to me that in nearly every country that has forever rid itself of the shackles of tyranny, the poet was the first to give voice for freedom's sake. And he was the first to be sacrificed upon freedom's altar which he himself built. The poetry of Heredin is the poetic of his passion. What he felt and saw, he wrote. But it is his simplicity and patriotic feeling that has secured for him a real place among Spanish American poets. Empty Trays "THERE were twelve guests and fifteen waiters at the place; and after two days the boss gave us half a round-trip fare and told us to heat it," said a disconsolate-looking ex-waterman, as he registered up at an employment agency, after standing in line for half an hour. "But you should have collected for a full week," I ventured, in a sympathetic manner. "Collect?" he answered, with a sticky grin. "How could I collect when the boss gave us twenty minutes to leave the place, after we had told him we sue him for a month's wages. "And to that he murmured, "thinking all the way down here from Connecticut, because we've had midwinter season there ever since last October; and they told us we'd have to strike farther South, where the weather was warmer and the people weren't afraid to take vacations." "And you see these other fourteen fellows," he continued, gazing at me with a look of remorse; "well, they followed me down here on my say so; and we've got just three dollars between us." "How long have you been a waiter? I inquired, in an attempt to soothe my waiter friend. "Fifteen years, off and on," he replied; "but this 1927 season's been a pippin. I haven't carried a full tray since the Florida crash came and they laid off the Key West Special. All I want is to make enough to get these boys and myself back to New London once more." "Can you do anything else besides waiting?" I asked. "Oh, yes," he answered, drilly. The fifteen tray experts being duly registered, they idled around the stuffy employment office. "You boys can come in tomorrow morning," said the hardened employment booker, "but I --- A Story SECOND SECTION "RADIO RECEPTION IN MOTOR CARS" Demonstration and Prices Upon Request PHONE 9800 EDGECOMBE E.

"Four brick masons, three plasterers, one plumber, three metal workers, one stationary engineer, and three all-round mechanics" asked the booker to the voice on the other end of the line. "Sorry, but I haven't got a one" snapped the booker. "One minute, young fellow," intervened our waiter friend. "If I'm not mistaken you've got fifteen of 'em." "What?" gasped the hooker. "Sure thing," shouted our waiter friend, with a smile. "We're all building construction men; and any one of us can fill any place on that job.

Restaurant Owner Killed by Bandit An alleged bandit robbed and then shot to death Charles Alexander, proprietor of a restaurant on South High street, Burlington, late Friday night. Police collected a posse and, aided by bloodhounds from the State police depot at Trenton, went on the trail of the slayer. Alexander Delaros, Alexander's partner in the business, ducked as the bandit fired and escaped the police that the bandit ordered lunch about 1 o'clock in the morning and after finishing commanded Alexander and himself to throw up their hands. The bandit riffed the cash register, securing about $500 then sent them to the restaurant. At the door he turned and fired, hitting Alexander in the heart. Delaros ducked behind the counter. Bloodhounds trailed the slayer across the fields south of this town, where he sat at a drainage ditch. Rain急 in the morning forced the police to stop their search with the dogs. 55,000 Sent Congratulations to Lindbergh by Telegraph Telegraphic congratulations from more than 55,000 persons throughout the United States and Canada were delivered to Col.

Notes This is camp season at the "Y" Time to throw off all the weakness that long winter days have piled up, to forget the discouragement and disappointment of the year and to build up fresh energy and courage for another winter's work or study. Fern Rock Camp on Iona Island in Palisades-Park is the place to go. The days are long and lazy. If you are really tired. You may sleep and read and just loot until wormout energy is repleted. And then the day is never long enough for all the things one wants to do. The swimming is perhaps the greatest joy to the greatest number. If the day is very hot the girls almost "live in the water" and may even coax sleep with a moonlight dip. There is a regular swimming instructor on hand always when the girls are, in the water and they have a fine chance to learn to be expert swimmers. Boating is also a prime favorite, especially in the late hours of the day. The nights may be very cool at camp. As the girls come in from their moonlight run they find new for in a great big gorgeous camp fire, warming to their slightly chilled bodies and awakening to a new sense of beauty with its soaring, singing flames. This summer special rates are being made for week-end guests, so that those who cannot stay for any length of time may still derive some of the benefit from camp.

This man approaches passing Americans who appear capable of spending and invites them inside to see the parade of styles.

Sara Washington Correct Dandruff Dandruff is perhaps the commonest disease of the hair. It is a disease in which the scalp throws off a horny layer. When this layer gets thick it forms crusts, or cakes, and stops up the pores, causing diminution in the supply of oil and an unhealthy condition due to the inability of the respiratory glands to throw off waste matter. The hair becomes dull and lusterless, and is frequently powdered with a fine white substance. The hair begins to come out perceptibly, and there is a good deal of irritation and itching. Scratching results in tearing the scalp, and blood crusts form. The whole scalp presents an unhealthy appearance. Any disease that lowers the general health or increases the toxic products in the blood may start the trouble, and any digestive disturbance is likely to start it. You should never use the comb and brush belonging to another. The first step to correct discomfort is building up the general health. After a few days, the particular about the daily care of the hair and scalp, and cleanliness. Careful massages and vigorous brushing often work wonders. A treatment that is successful in many cases is the hot tar oil treatment. Heat a little tar oil and use a piece of cotton to massage the hot oil into the scalp thoroughly. To this about twice a week before shampooing. The best "result" would be obtained if the tar oil could remain in the scalp for at least twenty-four hours. Nightly massage with a good hair pomade gives excellent results. "It also promotes growth and tends to improve the texture of the hair."

New Yorkers carried away most of the honors. They were victorious in the men's singles,—men's doubles, ladies' singles and ladies' doubles.

J., in 1925, in which he was runner up. He is also New York State junior champion. Mr. Wade swept through all the preliminaries to triumph in both ladies' singles and doubles. He won over Mrs. Emma Leonard, wife of New York City, and was awarded Clarence H. Adams' sillip with the defeated Mrs. Leonard and the defeated ladies' doubles. They received the two James H. Madison cups. J. E. Trottman of New Rochelle and Fred Johnson, the one arm wizard from New York City, beat L. George Murray and P. J. Campbell of Boston in a stubbornly contested match to win trophies designed by Nayer Quinn of Camden and John Quinn of Boston for the men's doubles. Cups were also awarded the runners up, Mrs. Elise Connick of New York City and Miss Edith Brown of Boston, who received Edgar P. Benjamin's cups for runners up in the ladies' doubles.

Fuguy's heavyweight carnival at Ebbets Field Wednesday night. Wills wound up his training at Southampton and Paulino concluded at Pompton Lake. Neither will do a bowing today nor anything more strenuous than light exercises. The scribes and spectators who saw Wills go through his last boxing session were loud in their praise of the big Black Panther. It was the consensus that he never looked better in training in the last three years. His punching and speed were better than ever and he gave four sparring partners rough insult. "I will win sure," Wills said at the conclusion of the training program. "I never felt better or more than an opponent in several years. I have no alibi. You can bet on that." Paulino was just as confident. "I've got the greatest opportunity in front of me that I ever had," he训练师 at the end of the workout. "Stop Wills at this distance and then go after the championship."

That letter shows better than any article that we could have written from it the spirit of the new day in Negro journalism. Roy Wilson, at his own expense, went to the trouble of shooting that telegram through, so that readers of The Amsterdam News would know in good time just how the famous tennis star made out. We hope these few lines will reach the eye of Roy, as we want him to know how grateful he will be for his kind mark of true sportsmanship. He have said from time to time, when that day arrives that we must retire from the newspaper game, we will take with us many fond memories of courses shown the old "Dear William" which will make him feel that his work was not in vain.

As the Easterns will take the place of the New Jersey Open, the New York Open, and the Germantown Open, the winner will receive the title of these tournaments and a leg on what ever challenge trophy the title may involve. A joint committee, composed of representatives of all four organizations, with Attorney J. M. Burrell as chairman, will have charge of the tournament. Playing facilities will be superb.

CUBAN PLAYER MAKING GOOD CUBAN PLAYER MAKING GOOD Montalvo Gets 9th and 10th Homers as Lincoln Continue Winning Streak The Lincoln Giants were aided in winning their eighth, ninth and tenth straight victories the past week-end by the batting of Alonzo Montalvo, their star Cuban outfielder. Playing against the Farmers at Farmers' Oval, in Brooklyn, on Saturday, the Lincolnes won a 14-7 victory and Montalvo hit the longest home run ever seen at this park. At their home grounds Sunday, July 10, the Lincoln wins two games, despite the inclement weather. In the opening game they defeated the Pelham Fire De- partment nine by a score of 2-6 and in the other contest the Brow- nies won by a score of 2-6. This second game Montalvo also made a home run, his tenth this season. Gisentamer was in his best form for the game against the Bronx Giants, allowing seven scattered hits. Chambers was the other Lincoln pitcher on Sunday. The Lincoln heavy batters were in good form Saturday Mant- ner, hitting four hits and getting four hits in four times at bat, including a home run. Other homers were hit in this game by Mason and Gisentamer. In Sunday's games Scales ran Montalvo a close second for batting honors.

BACHARACHS Chad See Sent Shore Players Out in One-Two Order Sunday Crafty pitching by Chad See and the hitting of, Pete Krummaker gave the Farmers a 2 to 1 victory over the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City, champions of the Eastern Mutual Colored League, in a hard-hitting and well-payed game at Farmers Oval on Sunday. One game of the scheduled double-header was played because of the unfavorable weather conditions. See allowed the hard-hitting colored visitors but four hits and fanned seven of them. In the fourth, fifth, six and seventh innings they went out in one-two-three order. The only run scored against See came through an cricket outfield. The Bacharach look ready to score. With two on in the third, See fanned Dick Lundy for the last out. In the ninth White, up first, singled. Lundy forced him at second, Donovan to Hezelz. See than fanned Smith for the second out and Lundy started for second, but a throw from Ruddy Hirten to Mike Donovan got Lundy for the last out. Hirten Stars Behind Plate. Hirten caught see well throughout the game and his throw in the ninth could not have been any better. The Bacharachs got the first run of the game in the second inning. With one out Simeon walked, Marcell singled to left, and Lincoln out to rookie (Certified on Pero 17). BestAmusementPages ANOTHER BIG RACE TO BROADWAY IS ON in Greater New York Ethel Waters Opens at Daly's 63rd St. Theatre Young Bornn Shows Promise Young Bornn Shows Promise Scion of Old Virgin Island Family Making Good in Musical Studies About three years ago a young man by the name of Hugo Bornan arrived here from St. Thomas, Virgin Islands of the U. S. A., to continue his studies in music, and recently it was brought to light that young Bornan shows great promise in the career which he has chosen as his life's work. Bornan is a descendant of one of the oldest and most prominent families of the Virgin islands, and for two generations they have been prominent in various successful business ventures. The family also fostered the arts and could be found in the front line of those lending encouragement to the assembling young men and young women of the "Isles of the Virgin." Born is attending the Institute of Musical Art and not very long ago appeared in concert of the N.A.A.C.P. at the Martin-Smith Music School. He has also been granted a scholarship at the institute for the comming scholastic year. When one remembers the background which this young man left behind him in the Virgin Islands they are not at all surprised at the strides he is making in his work. It was in St. Thomas many years ago that Mme. Sissacreta Jones (Black Pattt) received one of the first foreign honors to be conferred on an American artist of color, the well known singer being given a medal as a token of the high esteem in which she was held by a people who had contributed their share towards the eventual success of such as Brindild de dais. St. Thomas also gave to these United States the first array of colored musicians to be used in the Navy, and under Handmaster Alton A. Adams this outfit gained a great deal of recognition when touring this country a few summers ago. In St. Thomas they have even had the drama as acted by colored people a quarter of a century before such an attempt was made here, and Uncle Sam registered surprise when he took over the islands and found that the population, which is about 98 per SAVOY BALLROOM Lenox Ave. and 140th St. Featuring Two Bands—Arthur Gilbs.

It was from under this wholesome atmosphere that another young musician has come to us, Hugo Bornn's father, David O. Bornn, was a member of the logistical body or the islands, a body in which sits white and colored men without friction (incidentally, we can say that they have done this for almost a century). David Bornn was also Belgian Consul and through the William Randolph Heartst publications was the first to give a detailed account of the Mount Pelée disaster at Martinique many years ago. There is nothing assumed in the culture which has arrested the attention of many Americans to young Bornin, for he has inherited it. Not very long ago this youngster also had the pleasure of seeing two of his compositions in a concert on the program at the Institute. Those in a position to know claim that his work on the piano gives promise of attracting a great deal of attention to him in the future. Connie's Frolics to Wind Up Successful Season Company Suffered Hardships During Mississippi Floods and Comes to Lafayette Next Week What is said to be one of the finest colored revues on the road will wind up the season by playing a week's engagement at the Lafayette Theatre, beginning Monday, July 13. This is "Connie's Frolic" which, since its return from the flood area, it is said, has been playing a series of dates in Fox and Loew houses. John Dancy is manager and part owner of the show. Connie's Frolics is said to be by far one of the best "laughing shows" of the season. Emmet Anthony is the chief fun-maker. Mantan Moreland is a very able coworker. Jennie Dancy, Ruth Payne, Sam Cross, Eva Smith, Bobbie Lee, Earl Tucker, Lillian Jackson, Billy Vans, and other entertainers are in the cast. Then there is the chorus—one of the finest that ever danced at Connie's Inn. This we have also been told as the only time we'll make the mistake of entering one of these carbarets is when they find the stone with which little David slew Gollath), and an eleven-piece jazz band under the leadership of Bill Payne. The company is said to have suffered hardships during the recent floods in Mississippi. The feature picture for the week will be "The Monkey Talks" which critics have universally acclaimed as one of the most dramatic pictures ever filmed. It is adapted from the stage play which was a sensation on Broadway.

Ethel Waters Opens With 'Africana' at Daly's Amid Riot of Barbaric Splendor Amid a literal riot of barbarian and primitive splendor, the much heralded "Africana," a musical revue, with Miss Ethel Waters leading, opened at the Daily's Theatre, West Sixty-third street, west of Eighth avenue, on Monday night. The revue presents eleven scenes, which were all played around Miss Waters. The revue might have been called "From Harlem to Broadway," for the reason that most of the scenes have been taken, with little modifications, from some of the well-known revues, presented to Harlem audiences within the recent past. For this reason "Africana" possesses one of the most brilliant array of stars ever seen in the cast of a sundown revue. Not since the days when Labrite Hill presented Alice Ramsey and Even Bohannon in that overtook-beforezoned revenue or rather musical comedy, "My Friend From Kentucky," has there been presented to the New York stage such a splendid chorus. For individual stars and peppy chorus girls working in splendid jazzy harmony "Africana" is a triumph, but much of this was lost owing to the poor and to say the least immature judgment used in constructing the revue. The number of genuine musical comedy stars, which passed in revenue during the eleven scenes, created a plot of jungle and afforded sustained enjoyment, which called forth round after round of applause. Some of the stars now shining in this revue are the following: Ed Pugh, Milla Riley, Paul Bass, Billy Milla, Henry Whitred, Margaret Beckett, Al Wilkins, Baby and Bobby Golus. The hardest work and at the same time the most attractive dancing of the entire, revue was afforded by Bobby and Baby Golina, whose clever acrobatic and stunt dancing dominated the entire eleven scenes of the revue. Miss Margaret Beckett displayed rare dancing in the jazz leadership of the Ten Little Banana Girls and in her character of Saddle Coabour. The Tashkana Four were dulled in ministrel song harmony, and received deserved applause. The dance of the tambourines was well presented by the Africanana Girls, and should have been made to end the revue before the intermission curtain. Their work was certainly nine times out of ten border on the jewel, a number of our people have been forced to go into the ennies with their little dramatic shows. At the Renaissance Casino, on the night of July 1, the Medina Dramatic Art Club presented "Damon and Pythonas" before a large and enthusiastic gathering, and the consensus of opinion at the conclusion of the play was that the presentation was all that was expected and many voiced the hope that this club would again appear before the public—the next time in an even larger way. This naturally gave encouragement to those behind the venture and the players, and it is only lack of space that prevents a long dissertation on the success of these amateurs. We add our voice with the many witnessing the show and also hope we will hear more from Medina in the future. DALY'S 63rd S THEATRE, N. Y.

Is With 'Africana' at of Barbaric Splendor an outstanding feature of the revue. The chief defect in the revue was the poor direction which permitted such an out-of-the-way number as the cakewalk, led by Mr. Pinkantany Hill. Up to this number the revue, had taken the house by storm and had earned its right to stay on Broadway; but after the cakewalk the tempo began to lag, and was only rescued from the drums by some splendid dancing and almost perfect team work by the chorus. Miss Waters is badly directed. She suffers the disadvantage of being dominated by her chorus, instead of her dominating it. She worked hard and rendered her songs with perfect smoothness and elegance, but her director surrounded her with an array of costumes worn by her chorus girls which left her limp before the frenzial action of her chorus. Ethel Waters has never worked harder in her life and at the same time shown to worse advantage. This situation must be blamed both upon her director and upon those who selected her costumes. Her song hits, "Dishal" and "Shake That Thing," lifted her for a while above the spindor of her chorus, but following that she was again subdued by the next scene when her chorus again triumphed. Miss Water's lampoon of Josephine Baker and her countess count was clever and artistically put over and her last song about her man gave her another breathing spell in which to shine; but the closing ensemble when she was again surrounded by her entire chorus and the work of such outstanding sthra all-humped together placed her at a decided theatrical and scenic disadvantage at the final fall of the curtain. Harlem should be proud of the work of the stars in "Africana." Well Known Performers in Drake's New Show Company of Forty Said to Be With Offering Coming to Lafayette Theatre Advance notices of Drake and Walker's new show are the most glowing ever received.

Besides Ethel Walker and Henry Drake, the show boasts of some very fine entertainers, among them being Sambo Reid, William Drake, Arthur Lane, Louis Dandridge, Clifton Drake, William Mitchell, Baby Mack, Jimmie Baskette, Sam Robinson, Wilhelmins Baker, Christina Daniel, Gene Calloway, Maria Decosta, Pearl Calloway, Arlino Sisco, Pearl Jackson, Francis Scott, Mabel Thompson, Ada Lewis, Beatrice Brown and the three dancing babies: Conway, Smith and Jenifer.

COOPER AND A BIG CAST OF STARS AND PRINCIPALS On the Screen Thursday to Sunday Norma Shearer and Lew Cody in 'The Demi Bride' Real Brown Skin Chorus a Hit And the Haste of Our Reviewer to Tell About It Show's Interest Those of the theatre-going public of Harlem who have criticised the producers of colored revues for using "white colored girls" in their productions, have a very pleasant surprise in store when they see Eddie Lemons" "Dashin' Dinh," at the Lafayette Theatre this week. Eddie has a chorus of brown skin girls. He picked them because of their ability and not because of their color. And he certainly has one of the fastest singing and dancing choruses which has every been seen in Harlem this season. Number after number was received with hearty bursts of applause from the large audience on the opening day. There is one little girl, Bule Lee, who deserves particular mention. Her antics amused the audience quite as much as the work of some of the principals. Lemon's show is not a night club revue. It is a fast, funny, well-staged revue, full of wholesome comedy, fast dancing and good music. It is well costumed and has attractive, specially-built scenery. The comedy is provided by Eddie Lemons, String Beans Price, Homer Hubbard, Le Roy Phillips, Paul Moore and Christian Gray, Isadora Price was called back for three encores. Jack Wiggins made a hit to his bejeweled hat, cane and gloves, with his famous strut. Charles Barry gave a series of animal imitations which were as novel as they were enjoyable. Willie Taylor and Dot Lewis did a few dances which were a revelation: Duckett and Conway, who are appearing at Small's Paradise, also scored. All in all, Eddie Lemons has brought to Harlem one of the most satisfactory bits of entertainment of its kind in months. The feature picture for the week at the Lafayette is Gloria Swanson's latest starring vehicle "The Love of Sunya." It is a stirring story of the tricks which fate plays upon a beautiful woman. Miss Swanson does the finest acting of her career in this picture. A revival of Charlie Chaplin's illarious comedy "The Pilgrim" is also being shown. and Smith, who are the stars and authors of some, will make a tour of the Shubert and Errianger houses. ELEVE? M.

FOURTEEN "The Home of Red Cross, Peace League and Watches" THE impression on entering this land of William Tell is that of entering the home of a thoughtful, courteous man. No ransacking of your bags, no long list of useless questions one encounters everywhere else, including the United States. An official opens the door of your compartment, respectfully inquires if you have any dutiable articles, and on being informed in the negative bows himself out. Another official stamps your passport. No paying out of the ten dollars exacted from Americans only in almost every other country. Geneva is a very clean city, with beautiful promenades facing Lake Geneva, or Lac Leman, as it is known here. One of these is the Quai de Mont Blanc, from which one gets a fine view of the famous Mont Blanc. Plenty of water! In addition to the lake, the rivers Rhone and Arve run through the town. Water, however, is by no means the only drink of the Genevans. Switzerland, home of the Red Cross, the league of Nations, and watches, is unique among the nations of Europe. It is, perhaps, the only one that has had 100 years of uninterrupted peace. Every man fit to bear arms in Switzerland is, nevertheless, a soldier. All officers start from the ranks. And as to the Swiss navy, it hasn't fired even a blank cartridge since 1798! Here's something for those jokers about the Swiss navy to think about. The Swiss are a liberty-loving people, having waged almost 600 years of warfare against France, Italy and Austria. And, because they love freedom, their country has been the haven of the political refuge, just as America was before the days of "moral turpitude." The result is that the cream of the world's progressive thought has been attracted to Switzerland, with Geneva as the rallying point. Two of the most famous of these were Voltaire and John Calvin, Protestant reformer. Calvin was a former Catholic priest with a firm belief in the doctrine of predestination; that is, that one from birth is destined to go either to heaven or hell. Calvin's opponent was Servetus, who was burnt alive at Calvin's institution in the outskirts of the town. Another person burnt alive was a French priest named Antoine, who had become a convert to the Jewish faith, for Jews were the only refugee housed in the city. St. Stephen's Cathedral, from which Calvin thundered three centuries ago, still stands. Geneva, it will be recalled, was also the place where the dispute between England and the United Keeping By E. ELLIOTT RAWLIN Focal I OUR BODIES are constant that produce disease. T the world outside or de By focal infection is mean localized areas of the body grow, throwing their toxic culation and thus producing remote places of the body. Keeping Fit By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D. Focal Infection OUR BODIES are constantly being attacked by germs that produce disease. These germs may come from the world outside or develop within our own bodies. By focal infection is meant the lodgment of germs in localized areas of the body, where they multiply and grow, throwing their toxic products into the blood circulation and thus producing acute and chronic diseases in remote places of the body. Any part or organ of the body may become a nesting place for germs where they incubate and develop. There are certain organs of the body, however, where such foci of infection are more apt to occur. These places need constant care and watching in order to keep them fit. The mouth, the nose, the sinuses of the face, the teeth and gums, the tonsils, the gall-bladder, the colon (large intestine), the prostrat gland, and the rectum are the places that most often harbor a "germ colony," resulting finally in some systemic disease. There are certain diseases that result from these foci of infection. They are; rheumatism of all kinds, such as acute inflammatory rheumatism and chronic rheumatic arthritis; diseases of the heart such as endocarditis (inflammation of heart valves resulting in heart murmurs); myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle); high blood pressure; digestive disorders such as acute and chronic dyspepsia, gastritis, ulcer of stomach, ulcer of the intestine, inflammation of the gall-bladder, ulcer of the colon (large intestine), eye diseases such asritis and optic neuritis; certain nerves diseases and mental derangements, and some skin diseases such as eczema.

The room in the Town Hall where this took place is known as the Alabama Room. The Swiss have the reputation of being a very honest, law-abiding people. Burglaries are all most unknown. I was struck both in Geneva and Lansanne by the comparative absence of policemen. Nevertheless, in this Paradise of honesty—intellectual and otherwise—there is at least one serpent, and it was just my luck to run across him. On arriving at the hotel in Geneva I had only French money and the clerk gave me change at the rate of five French francs for one Swiss franc. On settling my bill I hadn't enough Swiss money and started to pay him in French francs at the same rate. "Five for one?" said I casually. "No, said he. "ten." And, without thinking, I gave him ten. One of the penalties of being a writer is that one's head is usually, elsewhere attending to other people's business. The cost of living is high in Switzerland, and a good place for tourists not very strong in the pocketbook to stay away from. As to scenery, it is not to be ranked with the American West, Northwest or the Canadian Rockies. Indeed, I have not seen any part of Europe that can be mentioned in the same breath with these places. As to the famed Italian lakes, I think them inferior to Lake Louise or even stretches of the Hudson in New York State. But look at the advertisement Switzerland had had. Some of Fit IS, M.D. Infection ently being attacked by germs These germs may come from develop within our own bodies. unt the lodgment of germs in y, where they multiply and products into the blood cir- acute and chronic diseases in ance of the individual to the in- vading bacteria and their toxines is of much importance, individ- uals vary in size, appearance personality, mental alertness and muscular strength. So do they differ in the ability of the indi- vidual cells of the body tissues and organs to resist any inva- ding infection. This is known as "biologic resistance." Thus one person will die from a ruptured appendix, while another with the same condition will live. One person will develop pneumonia by getting the feet and body wet, while another in the same wet- ness will continue to be well. This is the personal equation in this matter of health or sickness. It is one of the three big factors in any disease, the other two being the virulence of the invading germs and the duration of the infection. These three factors give you a working rule in the keeping of your body fit: 1. A yearly medical examination to detect any organs with a focal infection and beginning disease, in order that quick treatment for a cure may be instituted. 2. Keeping at all times the resistance of the body in an efficient degree. In order that any present infection may be quickly overcome, without resulting in severe illness or death. To do this means proper physical and mental rest, enough sleep, proper amount and quality of food, proper cleanliness, and good heredity. GENEVA. Switzerland.

Voltaire, Goethe, Dumas, Wordsworth, Dickens, Amiel, Ruskin, Shelley, Longfellow, Byron, all have gone into ecstasies over it.

Dear Egyptsy Ann: I am a girl in school and therefore cannot afford to buy pretty clothes. I've tried to reconcile myself to the fact by believing that men look for bigger things than dress, but I have been mistaken. Unless the girl has on the best of stockings, shoes and hats, and unless her clothes fit perfectly, she does not any attention, even though she be pretty. Egypsy Ann, I've even had boys offer to buy me pretty things, including underwear. Why can't colored men think of something other than clothes? It's very discouraging for girls who depend on fathers and mothers, or who earn a small amount. My girl friend works and all the money she earns is her own for dress. I know it to be a fact that she is often insulted by people instigating that she gets her in the middle. Does it pay to be decent? No one believes that we are, anyway. BITTER. My Dear Little Friend: You are going through one of the experiences common to every girl, and particularly to every colored girl. I'm glad to say that you are greatly disillustioned. The secret of dress is not the price you pay for it. It's not the variety of clothes you have. It's simply how they look on YOU. I've seen girls with very, very inexpensive trocks on attract all attention from those whose clothes cost five times as much. First of all, be immaculate. Be more than just clean. Just let immaculateness mark you all over—teeth, hair, neck, hands, fingernails. Keep your shoes so shiny that you'll be proud of them yourself. It's pitiful the way our girls hand out money for shoes, anywhere from $6 up, and allow them to look sloppy within a wreak.

Present were the representatives of England, France, the United States, Japan, Italy, Sweden and other powers. The conference was being held old things that counts, not buying a lot of new fads. Real boys, real men, like to see their girls looking natural. Leave the furbelows for those who have lost youth's charm. But even the "lost youth" individuals look far better dressed plainly and complementary. Be clean, be careful in dressing, every day not just Sunday. You're observed on week days more than on the Sabbath because you're more your real self. You show your real personality through your daily actions. Go slow on the color. Remember that yellow, orange, red, purple and certain shades of blue look becoming on VERY few people. Don't be satisfied with a dress just as it is when it comes from the store. Remember that it was made for any person size 16 or 18 or whatever the number. You want your dress for YOU. Be careful of your stockings. Watch them as you would a child. Select them cautiously, considering the color of your legs and the shape of them. Better tell your girl friend not to heed what people say about the manner in which she gets her clothes. Gossip will talk if you have clothes and they'll talk if you haven't. You ask if it pays to be decent. Honey, at the time being it may seem a losing game, but believe me it more than pays later on.

To a wom of refusing to recognize a the well-bred woman will ne son wth whom she has had unless she has a just reason t A Key to Culture By LEOLA LILLARD UPON meeting men acquaintances on the street, a woman is granted the privilege of bowing first. Her how is simply a greeting, with head slightly inclined. She looks directly at the man recognized and smiles cordially. To a woman is also given the privilege of refusing to recognize a man acquaintance. However, the well-bred woman will never ignore in public any person with whom she has had even a slight acquaintance, unless she has a just reason to do so. When two women meet in public they greet each other with a certain spontaneity which consequently eliminates any question as to who should bow first. However, to be technical, if one of the women is married and the other unmarried, the first how invariably comes from the former. The older person always greets the younger first. A lady he meets a gentleman whom he knows he removes his hat. When a gentleman meets a party of ladies or stops to speak with one only it is customary for him to retain his hat in his hand until she requests him to replace it. A gentleman when greeting a lady never takes the initiative The bow and the handshake are the accepted forms of greeting in the United States today. The bow varies from a very slight inclination of the head, as one gentleman passes another, to the various degrees of elaborate bow which savors of European ceremonial courtesy. A woman hows more erectly than a man does and gives perhaps a cordial impression by the greater expressiveness of her greeting, which should always be characteristic, never mechanical and never in imitation of others, whose natural traits may be far different from hers, no matter how admirable she may consider their style to be. It is only when she meets some one her senior or one who is in a much more important social position than one who, she specially delights to honor, that she elaborates her bow. When a gentleman is walking with a lady he lifts his hat when the lady bows to an acquaintance, even if the person spoken to is not known to him. So, also, when he is alone and meets a man whom he knows who is in the company of a lady, he lifts his hat.

When a gentleman meets a party of ladies or stops to speak with one only it is customary for him to retain his hat in his hand until she requests him to replace it. A gentleman when greeting a lady never takes the initiative in handshaking. If a lady offers her hand, however, it would be very rude indeed for a gentle- man not to accept. A lady does not take a gentleman's arm when walking with him in the daytime unless she is infirm or elderly. It is only after dark that she properly accepts the support of her escort. And in this case she merely rests the palm of her hand lightly within the curve of his elbow. It is ungraceful and extremely bad form for her to link her arm through his. A gentleman may offer his arm to the lady in crossing dangerous streets or in guiding her through congested traffic. It is incorrect for a gentleman to take a lady by the arm. There seems to be a certain belief that a gentleman walking with two ladies must "sandwich" himself between them, but correct social usage teaches that this is entirely wrong. The ladies walk side by side and the gentleman walks nearest the curb. If it is late evening he offers his arm to the oldest acquaintance or to the one to whom he is a special guest. Loud talking and laughing are never indulged in by well-bred "A Land Where Burglary Is Said to Be Almost Unknown" How Photographs of Lindbergh Were Sent a limitation in armament was a very desirable thing—for the other fellow. But as to themselves, they were going to be like the man who had come to the conclusion that wine, women and song were his running. Some reform had to be made, hence he was going to cut out the song: Almost every delegate was — J. A. Rogers — willing to make concessions in minor things but not in the major. England in her army, but not in her fleet, with France vice versa; France objected to having her reserves classed as aggregate forces, while she wanted naval limitation in terms of total tonnage, while England wanted it based on the kind of ships. Needless to say, everyone won his point, M. Delebrouckere, delegate from Belgium, said conscription was inevitable on the continent. The most liberal nations were those with little to guard or to grab, which you will. In the meantime, the leading powers are getting ready as fast as they can for the next war. Under all the diplomatic courtesy is the spirit of two Tong clans. No doubt each wants peace, but each has its eye on the other fellow. France, for instance, invaded twice by Germany in fifty years, is like a cat watching a dog. And speaking of cats, I saw a sight at dinner that made me do a little thinking on the conference I had just left. The proprietress, who also helped to wait at table, chained her dog under the till before she left, where he and the cat rommed to. WHERE New York still thrilled with first news that Col. Charles A. Lindbergh and the "Spirit of St. Louis" had reached Paris, a motorcycle messenger sped from the Western Union Cable office at 40 Broad street, New York City, to the office of the Pacific and Atlantic Photos. inc. with a small package. The package contained a roll of paper tape, some 500 feet long, five eighths of an inch wide, and perforated crosswise with a multitude of thy holes. Less than an hour later newspapers were on the streets with actual photographs of Lindbergh and his plane landing in Le Bourget Aviation Field outside Paris. During the days that followed other cabled photographs were published—pictures of Lindbergh receiving the plaudits of enthusiastic thousands in Paris, Brussels and London, and still later there were views of Chamberlin and Levine in Berlin. Similarly, pictures of the Lindbergh receptions in Washington and New York appeared in European people unless they are occasioned by some permissible amusement or merrymaking. It is also uncultured to engage in quarrels on the streets or to take offense at careless remarks made by bystanders or passersby. If one has "good clothes" wear them when on the street, for it is there that you are observed by more different types of people than at any other place. House dresses, house shoes and the like are designed for the house and should be kept off the streets. Your personal appearance and manners together on the street impress both strangers and acquaintances that you are either respectful or disrespectful as the case be. You are only entitled to the amount of courtesy registered by these indications. their hearts' content and later ate from the same plate. Here was a real disarmament conference, and why? Answer: Both had the same interests. I have since thought of the clerk who cheated me out of my francs with such Chesterfieldian grace, in spite of the fact that I, for one, was perfectly willing to have the same interests with him; That is, to pay him what he had asked. The cause for war lies deep in human nature. It is greed, the desire to live at the other fellow's expense. The great politicians and the patriots of the great countries may puff out their chests with pride until they burst, like the frog in the fable, but until the proudest one of them becomes as civilized as this cat and this dog there will be no peace, there will only be armistices. I collected many interesting facts on the League, and shall try to state only one here: Twenty-one racial minorities are represented in the League. Where is the American Negro? Some day we are going to learn that one of the surest ways of making our oppressors uncomfortable is to put our cause before thinkers such as are to be found here in a greater variety than perhaps in any other spot on the globe. That the American Negro would get an instant hearing is my firm opinion, based on the attitude and interest of many with whom I talked. Among the number was M. Felix Valyi, editor of the Review of Nations, a journal that is devoted to the cause of justice for oppressed minorities the world over. Several articles have already appeared on the Negro, one of them by William Pickens, M. Valyi received me very cordially and asked me to write an article on Christianity. Mohammedanism and the Negro, for a near issue of the magazine. As to unemployment, there is little in Switzerland, as I understand the government undertakes to find work for all. The country is divided into cantons, and I was informed that a workman intends to move into another canton must have not less than $200. No foreigner is permitted to do work that a native can do. Hence, there is little or no migration. The darkest persons one sees are Hindu students. newspapers only a few hours after the pictures were taken. These pictures were actual photographs transmitted over the Atlantic cables by the Bartlane method, developed by H. G. Bartlolomew of the London Daily Mirror and Capt. M. D. McFarlane, affiliated with the Pacific & Atlantic Photos, Inc. New York. The process is intricate, but intensely interesting. It consists essentially of the conversion of an ordinary photograph into a five-unit telegraph tape, and the reproduction of the photograph from the tape after the tape signals have been transmitted telegraphically. First, the photograph is printed on metal sheets in such a manner as to give tone differentiation. This is obtained by making five prints of varying density from the same negative. These prints consist of conducting and insulating portions according to the lights and shades of the original photograph. The metal prints are next placed on a series of rotating cylinders, each of which has a needle in electrical contact, much as the needle is in friction contact with the record of a cylinder-type phonograph. The needles are connected electrically with a tape perforator as is used in automatic telephony, and the perforations made in this tape as the cylinders rotate, constitute a record of the picture. The tape is then delivered to the Western Union, and is transmitted exactly, if it were an ordinary cable message over the high-speed Fermiloy type cables recently laid in the Atlantic. The signals are received at the distant end of the cable in the form of a perforated tape identical with the original sending tape. The Bartiane system is susceptible of use on land lines as well as Fermilay cables, and is actually in operation between New York, Chicago, Washington and other large cities.

This being sort of an off year, prior to Presidential election in 1992, the new body is bent upon doing their part in putting over the county ticket this fall, which calls for the election of a County Clerk, a Supreme Court Justice, two Municipal Court Justices, Assemblymen and Aldermen. While it is pointed out there will probably be a falling off in registration insofar as the county县 is concerned, no such thought focused towards the Fourth Assembly District, and surely not, with the additional interest of the colored voters who have apparently tired of Tammany Hall offices and their leadership in the county. George U. Harvey Speaks. The principal speaker of the evening, who arrived late from an earlier meeting in Flushing, was former Alderman George U. Harvey, who has been designated to try again this fall for a member of that body. In his talk, which he I about twenty minutes, "the fighting Flushingite" pointed out the need of such an organization to cooperate with Mrs. Barnes on the South Side, and added: "It is time for a change; 90 per cent of you people are property owners and taxpayers. I know the conditions of your streets. They will remain so long as the Democrats can come around only on election day and pile up a majority. Why should they give you anything? Nothing beats a trial but a failure, sorry the Republican Party. Among other speakers and members who addressed the club were: Mrs. Barnes, Mrs. Brewster, Joseph W. Hawkins, Allyn Haack, County Committeeman and President of the Fourth Assembly District Republican Club; Mr. Campbell, former Captain of Company Bold (Hell Fighters"), who recently lost his eyesight because of shell shock during the World War; Rev.

Walter Allen Not Guilty Man Who Accidentally Ran Down Child Discharged Walter Allen, 21 years of age, of 59 113th avenue, Cedar Manor, arraigned before Magistrate Harry Miller Tuesday, June 28, on a technical charge of homicide, was discharged for lack of evidence Tuesday, when the case was tried before Magistrate Lawrence Gresser in the Town Hall. Allen was arrested on Monday evening, June 27, after his truck had run over Mildred Hauck, 10, a little white girl of 156-48 113th avenue, while she was riding a bicycle along Sulphin boulevard, near 115th avenue. The handle bar of the bicycle she was riding pierced her heart, and death occurred shortly after Allen had hailed a passing autist and hurried the child to the Jamaica Hospital. Eye witnesses to the fortunate accident testified that Allen had done all within his power to avoid hitting the child, who was headed north, turning out of 115th avenue, which terminates at Sutphin boulevard. After two of the witnesses had finished their testimony with no cross-examination by Counselor Elmer M. Ashnhead Allen's attorney, Magistrate Green called a halt, deciding it was a waste of time to call further witnesses. Reception in Honor of Ladies' Usher Board The Rev. and Mrs. Edward T.

Vacation Bible Schools in Summer Course The thousands of colored children that were recently released from public schools found that they could continue to go to school if they wanted to last week, for on NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 13, 1927 July 5 the Dally Vacation Bible Schools were opened for the five weeks' summer course held annually under the auspices of the Metropolitan Federation of Dally Bible Schools. Tre boys and girls all under fifteen, are receiving training in arts and crafts, group play, worship and Bible story telling. Of the 200 centers of instructions throughout the city, there are six in the Brooklyn division operated by colored churches and include the following; Bridge Street A. M.

"Y" Secretary in Lecture at Bethany Baptis "The Great Quest" was the subject of a very interesting lecture given at the Bethany Baptist Church, Summer avenue and Decatur street, a few evenings ago by Arthur L. Comither, executive secretary of the Carlton Avenue Branch of the Y. M. C. A. In a very vivid manner Mr. Comither described man's eternal thirst for knowledge, truth and religion. In addition to the lecture there was a splendid musical concert given by a number of artists. It was under the direction of Nathaniel Mitchell, a recent graduate of the Yale Conservatory of Music. The affair was largely attended by persons prominent in the social and musical life of Brooklyn. Mrs. M. Yullie was chairman of the committee in charge of the program. The Rev. Kimbal L. Warren is pastor of the church. Brooklyn Man Thrown From Coney Island Device Jordan Freeman, 48, of 469 Baltic street, was among the several persons that were seeking Fourth of July amusement on "The Whip" at Coney Island, but found themselves victims instead of pleasure-seekers. Freeman was hurled from his seat in a car fa when he was riding. As the car made a fast turn around a curve he was thrown out with great force and many marveled that he did not lose his life. After medical attention he went home. For Jimmy Murphy, Irish Gave Blood for Jimmy Blunt, Colored (See picture on Page 16.) "He has, in him the stuff that makes real heroes." So professors at Long Island College Hospital last week characterized James Murphy, 11 years old, of 198 Warren street. "Jim" was a patient in the hospital. The surgeons there had operated on his paralyzed legs and he was recovering and about to walk with the aid of crutches. In the next cot to him was James Blunt, an 11-year-old colored boy, who lives at 2308 Seventh avenue, Manhattan. During the few days that Blunt was in the hospital preparatory to his operation he and the young Irish lad became fast friends. While the surgeons were operating on the Blunt boy they found that he was a "bleeder," that is that at the slightest cut he might bleed to death. After a desperate fight they stopped the bleeding, but by that time they feared the lad had lost so much blood his life was ebbing. They determined that an immediate transfusion only could save him. "One of the surgeons rushed into the orthopedic ward, where Blunt was a patient, and asked for a volunteer to give the dying colored boy some blood, "He's my pal," said Murphy, without hesitation. "I'll give him all of my blood that he needs." In a few minutes the doctors had the parents of the Murphy boy on the telephone, obtained their consent to the transfusion and then "Jim" was rushed to the operating room, where the life of colored "Jim" was ebbing. While on the operating table Murphy gave twenty cubic centimeters of his blood to his colored ward mate. Last Saturday Murphy was discharged from the hospital, with instructions to return for continued treatment, and Blunt, now on the road to recovery, will go home within a few days. Miss Jeanette Trower, 122 Jefferson avenue, spent the week-end at Spring Lake and Abbury Park, N. J. Mr. and Mrs. Rosee and H.

After the police had night-sticked their way into the center of the mass they found a badly mauled colored man on the ground suffering from several stab wounds. The reserves faced a howling and turbulent mass of men, young, middle-aged and older, jammed and struggling in Belmont avenue. Negroes and whites were surging about, apparently bent upon getting to the vortex of the excitement. The police quickly determined they had to fight their way in.

Two young men, who described themselves as Morris Stromberg, 22, giving the same address as Lavis, and George Goldberg, 19, of 129 Belmont avenue, were taken to the Brownville station and charged with felonious assault. The arrests were made by Detectives Dan Wagner and Baerens Donnelly, of the Brownville station. When the police had rescued the man from the mob he was assisted to a nearby drug store. Stromberg and Goldberg, who were near Davis when the police arrived, were brought in and were identified by the colored man as his assailants, although he seemed unable to tell the police which of the two wielded the knife. He told the police that a heated argument resulted from the "usual verbal passage" as to race and color and was followed by blows and the stabbing. During the trouble a white woman suffered a deep stab wound in the neck and a colored woman was placed under arrest, charged with felonious assault, and will have a hearing in the New Jersey Avenue Court. Mary Katonchovich, 29, of 239 Watkins street, was the victim of the stabbing. According to her story, Ida Jackson, 36, who says she lives at the same address, began to revile her in front of the Watkins street address late Saturday afternoon. When she protested against the names Miss Katonchovich says the colored woman ran upstairs, returning a moment later with a long pair of shears with which she stabbed her in the neck, inflicting a deep stab wound. Dr. Caruso removed her to St. Mary's Hospital. Months later the Jackson woman had been arrested by her husband, Dale Kennedy, Gaynor and Beck, of the Brownsville station, were sent to investigate. They broke down the door and placed the colored woman under arrest. The police say there has been considerable feeling for the past two years between the races because of the invasion of that section by the colored people, and cited a case two years ago when David Cohen, 24, of 25 Livonia avenue, was stabbed to death by Fenton Allette, of 257 Livonia avenue, a colored man, who was also attacked after being: called names, and who now is serving a sentence of from ten to twenty years in Sing Sing. Allette was arrested at that time by Detective Edward Gunor, of the Brownville station. Flushing Man Accused of Stabbing in Glen Cove GLEN COVE, July 11—Discovery of five aces in the deck broke up a peaceful poker game in Glen Cove late Saturday night, and brought on a fight which resulted in the death of William Walker, 24, of Long Branch, who collapsed at the Community Hospital after being stabbed above the heart. Edward "Bozz" Moore, also colored, of Flushing, is accused of the stabbing. Willard Maxwell, 25, of Long Branch, who tried to separate the two combatants when the fight began, was badly cut on the face and neck. It was he who named Moore as the assailant. Moore fled with Walter (Midnight Rose) Gray, of Long Branch, after the stabbing. Police have sent out a general alarm in an effort to capture him. A month ago Moore, according to the police, was involved in another fight in which William Burton was thrown from a moving auto and killed. No evidence could be obtained against Moore at that time, and he was not held. Brooklyn Office: 868 F News Writer on Roan Another Bre Effort Will Be Made to Get Into the Home for A Brooklyn Office: 868 Fulton Street. Phone Prospect 6375 News Writer on Rounds Digs Up Another Brooklyn Centenarian Effort Will Be Made to Get Relic of Ante-Bellum Days Into the Home for Aged Colored People By WALTER R. LOFTON In Prince R. Richardson, its oldest citizen, if his claims are correct. The writer, having an investigation and found him in the yard at 527 Classroom house for over sixty years. Prince, as he is known to reluctant to talk about himself us a short interview. He is despite his feeble condition as a skin that gives little evidence of a man who has been in years, forty-four of which were In Prince R. Richardson. 109 years old. Brooklyn has its oldest citizen, if his claims and the claims of his friends are correct. The writer, having heard of the aged man, made an investigation and found him busy with saw and hammer in the yard at 527 Classon avenue. He has lived in this house for over sixty years. Prince, as he is known to a host of Brooklynites, was reluctant to talk about himself, but finally agreed to give us a short interview. He is a man of medium height and despite his feeble condition shows a fulness of flesh with a skin that gives little evidence, if any, that tells the story of a man who has been in the world over one hundred years, forty-four of which were spent in slavery. With what seems to be the profound wisdom of a patrarch, he ceased his activities with the saw, hammer and nails, sat down in a chair on the porch of the old trame building, and looked upon the writer with a pair of tired eyes. When Mr. Richardson was questioned as to what evidence he had to substantiate his claim of being 109 years old, he spoke of having a book with the record of his birth in Georgetown, S. C., in 1818. This has been lost. This statement has been "substantiated by Mrs. Lillian Dillard, wife of Understaff Allen Dillard, who has known Mr. Richardson since her childhood days, Mrs. Dillard and Mrs. Wilson, of 843 Gates avenue, have been very generous since he has not been able to earn money. According to Mr. Richardson, the book, which had the record of his birth, also mentioned the fact that he was born a year after President James Monroe was inaugurated. in that day and generation it was with a degree of pride that one's parents mentioned the fact their children's natal day was in the same year of a notable event, such as the inauguration of a President, the beginning of a war, a great catastrophe or the birthday of some prince or princess. This being during the period of American slavery, it is possible that the owners of Richardson's parents recorded the event of his birth. When questioned as to what lives he lived up to in order to live as long, Mr. Richardson replied that he had no set rule. He worked hard, had as much fun as he could in the Aute-Bellum period, ate what he wanted and drunk what he wanted to, but did none of these things to excess The aged man told how he was married and reared a big family quite some time before the Civil War, but today he is all alone in the world. Up to about 15 years ago he was able to make his living by doing odd jobs, such as caning chairs and carpentry. Since he is, and is unhappy with, Mr. Richardson has expressed a desire to enter the Home for Aged Colored People at 1095 St. John's place, but not having the necessary $300 he has been unable to satisfy this desire. Learning of this desire, W. T. Price of 50 Putnam avenue has interested himself in the case and has given some money towards this cause. He has also interested such organizations as the Daughters of Virginia Society and the Virginia Fraternal and social organizations. It is hoped to soon get this sum, as there is now a vacancy for another man in the home. As the interview was about to terminate, Mr. Richardson invited the writer to his room, which is in the rear of the shoe repairing shop of Patrick Henry Quarles, himself a man far advanced in years, but who plies his trade as a shoe repairer. The room, though small, was clean and tidy. This, he explained, was due to the kindness of some ladies, who came in from time to time and cleaned it for him. He came to Brooklyn shortly after the Civil War and his house was to civil war, he lived in. When the late Perry H. Wilson, who conducted a whitewashing business, lived in the house, he made his home, with his family. On the walls of his room are many pictures that show the ravages of time, also a number of steel engravings and other memoirs or bygone days. While Mr. Richardson's memory is good, in some cases he was frank to confess that many things that were important in his life had gone from him, and at times he forgets names and faces. When inquiry was made as to his ability to read or write he stated that he had learned to read and write some time after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. Even though his memory is bad he was able to graphically DES, and the great excitement due to the assassination of President Lincoln. When he is not busy with his saw and hammer, Mr. Richardson sits on the porch of the old house, where he makes his home, having little to say to any one, only meditating over the past, and looking into the future with hope, and despite his condition he does not seem downhearted, believing that the Lord will provide, and I will live where I can live the rest of my days in peace and comfort."

JULY 13. 1927 LEAGUE ALTERS ITS SCHEDULE Roster Will Call for Forty Instead of Seventy Games PHILADELPHIA, July 5.—At a meeting of the Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League here the schedule for the second half of the 1827 season was drawn up. The first half will come to a close Sunday, July 10, and the clubs will start over beginning July 11. Due to paring the league down to six clubs, it became necessary to curtail the proposed 140 game schedule that the league agreed upon before the start of the season. The present half is now figured on a basis of 40 games instead of 70 and will wind up September 15. The Bacharach Giants are now holding a substantial lead and with but a few games to play, the penant is virtually conceded to the Atlantic City team for the first half.

Benny Proctor President Junior Dahlia Assn. U. N. I. A. Opens New Chapter in Brooklyn "If the Ku Klux Klan can parade in New Jersey it is right next door to New York," declared Mme. M. K. t. de Mena, an international officer of the United Negro Improvement Association, at the formal opening of a new headquarters that the East Brooklyn Chapter of the NAACP has held. "What is all this hullabaloo about the Ku Klux Klan?" demanded Mme. de Mena. "It is a white man's organization and the white man is going to protect it. Therefore the Negro should work to his utmost to protect his organization. If the Ku Klux Klan has a program and has the nerve to stand up for it, why can't the Negro stand up for his?" "I want Negroes to et away from eloquence and oratory and show some action. When we show up to the community for the good of it you will become recognized." Mime. de Mena scored the men of her race who merely dream of, a Negro homeland in Africa and take little part in movements to improve the condition of their race throughout the world. There were addresses by Chancellor Law and J. P. E. Samuel. SEVENTEEN bb good-bye at the tis-Harris, deputy; tative; Mrs. H. E. supreme president; Prof. S. M. Wyutt, Wayne, cashier sick ; W.

Wednesday, July 13, 1927 Investigate Harlem Hospital IF MAYOR WALKER would make an honest-to-goodness investigation of conditions at Harlem Hospital, either personally or through such of his officials as are competent to conduct such an investigation, and follow this up with recommendations to the Trustees of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, based upon that investigation and these put into effect, we have no hesitancy in saying that the deplorable conditions which now exist there could be remedied. CONDITIONS there are deplorable and, in all probability, will continue so until the root of the matter is got at and the causes removed. We believe that an impartial investigation of this city institution, approached from the standpoint of the superintendency, personnel and the patient, would reveal some of the disturbing elements which tend now to nullify its efficiency at the expense of the taxpayers of the city. THE SUPERINTENDENCY: We believe that the present superintendent at Harlem Hospital should be removed and replaced with a man of broader vision and a keener insight into the shallowness of the problem many would believe to be ever present when white and colored people live and move in close proximity. Under the present superintendent conditions have grown steadily worse, leaving no other conclusion to be reached than that he is not the man for the job. We cannot escape the thought but that a man who possessed, in addition to medical qualifications, a broad sympathetic knowledge of human problems and human nature, would be able to prevent much of the dissension now rampant there. We do not care what his color is, or what race gave him birth; so it must not be inferred that we demand that the hospital be turned over entirely to Negroes from top to bottom. It must be remembered that Harlem Hospital is an institution of the City of New York, and that the Board of Trustees who govern it are appointed by the mayor. It serves all races and the appointment of its staff should be based on merit. NEVERTHELESS, we disagree with the Negro physician who, in an interview with a reporter for The Amsterdam News, said that there are not enough Negro medical men skilled in the various branches of hospital work to man it. This is the same bugaboo raised against the use of an all-Negro personnel at the United States Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee. Ala. Yet, men were found who, in competitive examinations, convinced the United States Civil Service examiners that they could do the work, and they are doing it. This is the same bugaboo raised at Howard University, and in connection with the appointing of a Negro colonel for the 369th Infantry. PERSONNEL: The personnel at Harlem Hospital should be no different from that of any other hospital under the control of the City of New York. Doctors, internes, nurses, orderlies, and other employees should be given appointments on a merit system which ignores race, creed and the color of the applicant for the place. Under such a system we believe that Negroes would have proportionate representation in all the hospitals in the city, and a larger representation at Harlem Hospital, due to the fact that many Negro physicians would prefer to get experience and make contacts with those on whom their livelihood would most likely depend. If such a system is carried out in the city schools with a considerable degree of success, why is it impossible to use it in the city hospitals? WHEN NEGROES first began to make demands for interneships at Harlem Hospital propaganda was circulated to the effect that if they were successful all the white internes would resign; that white physicians would not work side by side with Negro physicians. Yet, Negroes were successful in their demands for interneships and we do not know of the resignation of a single white interne. PREJUDICE: There is a prejudice and racial discrimination at Harlem Hospital, which, seemingly, at least, has the approval of several of the members of the Board of Trustees of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, and by the superintendent at the hospital. Otherwise, most of it could be removed almost overnight. Prejudice in all city institutions is easily controlled by those in authority, if they want to control it. Few white men in search of medical experience could be found who would deny themselves that experience on the ground that they dislike to associate with Negro physicians. The relationship between a white doctor and a Negro patient is much closer than that between a white and Negro doctor in the same institution; so the white interne or surgeon who does not care to come in contact with Negro physicians should certainly be barred from a hospital where nearly all of the patients are Negroes. PATIENTS: An investigation is not needed to prove that the conditions now obtaining at Harlem Hospital operate to the detriment of the patient who goes or is taken there for treatment, either at his own expense or at the expense of the taxpayers of the city, and fails to get what is paid for—an efficient medical service. Liberia Pays in Full (From the Sun.) Liberia has paid in full its war debt to the United States. The Liberian Consul-General, Dr. Ernest Lyon, handed to Oden L. Mills, Acting Secretary of the Treasury, a draft for $35,610.46 on July 6 in payment of principal and unpaid interest. Previous payments on account of interest had amounted to $61.10; now Liberia is cleared on the books of the United States on account of money advanced for war purposes. It was not a big debt in the first place—as such things are commonly reckoned—but Liberia is not a big or a rich country. But the debt might have been much heavier. At the time of the armistice a credit of $5,000,000 had been arranged for Liberia. The war came to an end before the money was needed and the Liberians used only $26,000. As long as the great war was confined to other nations than the United States Liberia remained neutral. But when the United States got in Liberia got in too. As Dr. Lyon has reminded the American public, the services performed for the common cause were not unimportant. Liberian marines helped maintain communications along the African coast after Europeans had withdrawn. The Germans resented this and once sent a submarine around to make trouble. In a letter to Dr. Lyon Secretary Mellon acknowledged the importance of Liberia's contribution and follicled that republic on the ability of its statesmen and the industry of its people, which have made it possible for Liberia to strengthen its economic system and regain financial stability. These are folliclations in which all Americans share. Colorful News "Movies" Colorful News "Movies" By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE Christianity and Intolerance A RECENT episode at the Kings County Hospital in New York, where white internets made three Jewish internets the victims of a cruel and cowardly hazing party, causes just comment from "The Jewish Tribune." This magazine, usually broad in its views of life, characterized this affair as "a misunderstanding" of the teachings of Christianity by Christians themselves. "The hospital is an institution maintained by the City of New York, at least a quarter of whose population are Jews. Yet these Christian physicians made life miserable for three Jewish colleagues, at the same time dining into their ears: This is a Christian institution and we will tolerate no Jews here." This is, indeed, the spirit of bigotry and intolerance that accompanies the Christianity of Nordic America to-day. Throughout the South the Negro has long been the victim of such malevolence on account of his color and "previous condition of servitude." But what has the Jew, except his difference in religion, that should cause him to become the object of American animosity? The spirit of hatred and intolerance seems to be steadily growing everywhere. We, as a group, can deeply sympathize with our Jewish brother, and feel with him the chagrin that such injustices bring to its victims, intolerance, hatred, bigotry and prejudice, can they go hand in hand with real Christianity? "Who loveth God, loveth his brother also." Coercion Vs. "Sugar Coating" South Africa has adopted a plan of legislation instead of "sugar coating" to solve one of its serious race problems—"The problem of how to get along with its imported Hindu population, which by underselling and underliving threatens to make living impossible for the white man in small trade." It appears that after economic pressure, municipal ordinances, and even "sugar coated" offers of free passage home and a cash bonus, have failed to reduce ludian population, the Union Government is about to change the economic status, at least, of these dark-skinned people, by compelling them to live according to the white man's standards, or leave South Africa. This new movement is viewed very favorably by some of the Hindus, while others see only the possibility of this procedure finally driving out the simple living, trivial Indian, with whom the whites are unable to compete. Whatever the outcome of this new measure may be, whether it will be of harm or benefit to these Hindus, time only will tell. But the whole affair shows how Nordics the world over fear the progress and increase of their dark skinned brothers. Nordic economic, political, and social supremacy is ever the white man's creed, be he English, German, or American. The Inferiority Complex in Panama Bishop George A. Miller, writing from Ancon, Canal Zone, to "The Christian Century," speaks of finding in Panama "Nordic complex all over again; the white man's inhumanity to the black." Liauable and most sincere are the expressions of tribute paid to the black men and women who attended Bishop Miller while he was lying helpless in the "famous Ancon Hospital at the Pacific end of the canal zone." After seven weeks as a patient in this hospital, nursed and cared for by "these black angels of mercy," the bishop deplores the ungrateful, almost inhuman treatment these faithful blacks receive at the hands of officials of the Canal Zone. In return for long hours—twelve hours each day—seven days per week—(only one day off a month)" and such as "thirty-five dollars a month for men—twenty-two dollars and a half for women—(with loss of each day's pay for illness)" these "West Indian orderlies, whose long years of experience have made them super-efficient as all the rest of the hospital service" give to the patients "a certain tenderness of touch, a knack of easing broken bones and aching heads" that, says the writer, "I did not know existed." After recovering, the bishop talked with the onar patients and found everyone enthusiastic over the service rendered by these black orderites, whose "pay was an outrage to common human decency," as he says. On inquiry, those at "the top" advanced three arguments in defense of this meagre wage scale: First, the black man receives more money thus than he could get in the Caribbean island, from -:- The Negro Out West' -:- "Farms Offer Greater Opportunities Than Cities" AM now in Denver, Colorado. This city marks about the midpoint of the United States. Denver is one mile above sea level. The air here is rare and precious. Sickly people from the East breathe this pure air and live again. But if the reader wishes a dissertation on the different cities of the country, he can get it to better advantage by consulting a guide book than by perusing the traveler's hasty observations. I have been mainly concerned with the status and future prospect of the Negro in the Middle West. I rode from Chicago to Denver, a distance of more than a thousand miles. Naturally, I kept my eye peeled for racial situations and incidents. The Negro in the trans-Mississippi Middle West is like the famous chapter on snakes in Ireland—there are no Negroes. By actual count I saw more Negro waiters and porters on the train which carried me westward than came under my eye on the route by the way. There was not a single other Negro passenger besides myself during the twenty-seven-hour ride from Chicago to Denver. by conversation with those who are in constant touch with the situation. Lfind that the race is gradually or rapidly thinning out in this region. The residue are settling in the larger cities, such as Minneapolis and St. Paul, Milwaukee, Des Moines and Omaha. But even in these cities conditions seem to be growing more and more stringent, as far as opportunities of work are concerned. While in Minneapolis and St. Paul last fall I learned that there is a set policy to keep the Negro out of stated lines of employment. Henry Ford located one of his chief branch plants at the head of the Father of Waters with the declared policy of employing Negro workers in a liberal ratio. But local sentiment compelled him to reduce the number of colored help almost to the vanishing point. One manufacturer put the case baldly and bluntly. "We do not propose to employ Negro labor because the better we treat them the more of them will be induced to migrate here. The more of them we encourage, the greater will become the complexity of our local race problem. We propose to forefend ourselves by not encouraging the beginning." The instance is paralleled by another that came under my atten- which he came; second—if the black man does not like it, he can quit; and third—if he had more money he would spend it." These arguments simply revert to that Nordic complex of "oppression of the black man just because he is black and can't help himself."

Quite a gathering of the Afro-American contingent had assembled there to fill positions as waiters, chauffeurs, domesticas and maids in this resort of the fashionable and well-to-do. I was invited to address the nucleus of a Young Men's Christian Association that had made a promising beginning. Appeal was made to a wealthy and philanthropically disposed patron of the place to subscribe for an adequate building for the young Negro men. He replied that it would be bad policy to provide a Y.

Reports come to me from Omaha, Des Moines, Milwaukee and Denver confirming the situation described in Minneapolis and St. Paul. The Negro is all but religiously shut out from the stated industries. The lines are drawing tighter and tighter. He is being relegated to the odds and ends type of employment which cannot easily be organized and federated. There always will, of course, be a wide field in the domain of nondescript occupations into which the Negro will fit with some degree of comfort and satisfaction. There is no cause for alarm or need of despair; but merely of same observation and judgment. It may be well to go back a little and inquire into the history of the northern section of this great Mississippi Valley. Here the Republican party had its inception and origin. It was essentially a free soil party. This country was to be preserved for all time for the opportunities of free working white men, without juxtaposition or competition of Negro labor, whether slave or free. Every state in this region pass- Staff Appointments Made by Urban League The National Urban League announces several new appointments to local Urban League staffs. The newly organized Urban League of Buffalo, N. Y., has elected as its executive secretary William L. Evans, who began his duties June 1. Mr. Evans is a graduate of Fisk University, formerly taught in the Central High School, Louisville, Ky., and was for a number of years the industrial secretary of the Chicago Urban League. The new secretary of the Pittsburgh Urban League is Alonzo C. Thayer, who also began his new duties on June 1. He comes to the Pittsburgh Urban League from the position of executive secretary of the Atlanta Urban League. Mr. Thayer also is a graduate of Fisk University and was at one time industrial secretary of Chicago Urban League. Gerald E. Allen, who has just secured his master's degree from the University of Pittsburgh, working on an Urban League "fellowship," has been appointed executive secretary of the Canten (O.), Urban League. Mr. George Goodman, a 1926-27 Urban League "fellow" at the New York School of Social Work, has just received an appointment in an executive position in connection with the internural work of the Boy Scouts of America. Mr. Goodman will probably begin his duties in Boy Scout activities in Harlem, and will be subject to call for service in other sections of the country. Mr. Goodman is an honor graduate of Lincoln University, where he was a star football player and class orator. He has conducted playground work in Hartford, Conn., and boys' club work in Englewood, N. J. Know New York State Only one Secretary of the Interior has ever been appointed from New York State. This was Cornelius N. Bliss, appointed by President McKinley in 1897. The Boys' Club of New York ed laws excluding the free colored man. The Eastern abolitionists injected the humanitarian element in the issue. The West for the time espoused the rights of man, as man, with great servor and enthusiasm. But we find that as we recede from the heated issues of the Civil War the Western prairies are reverting to type. The opportunities are reserved for free white laboring folk. It is significant that in Colorado and Nebraska, where the Negro scarcely numbers one in a hundred, there are laws forbidding the intermarriage of the races. Aside from these instances, there are, I believe, no discriminatory laws of any description. Mr. Roosevelt said on one occasion that the Spanish-American War was not a great war, for it did not have to be. There are no legal discriminations in this region, for there is no excuse or necessity for them, even from the white man's prejudiced point of view. The Negro is all but wholly a negligible proportion of the population. A Jim-Crow car from Chicago to Denver would be empty most of the time. For a hundred white voters to unite in disfranchising one black voter would be an act of stupendous political folly. Why on earth set up separate schools for a handful of Negro children scattered among the whites in the ratio of one to a hundred? We are not only prone to make virtue out of necessity, but to glorify our own goodness where there is no advantage in being bad. The Northern Mississippi is the white man's land, where the Negro finds only the scantiest opportunity. This leads me to the broad proposition that the Negro funds his best chance either in the great cities or on the farm. In the great cities the classes have developed into wealth and poverty. The wealthy whites are always disposed to give the Negro a chance; but not so the white working man. He wants to monopolize the best working opportunities for his own race and color. The richer whites employ the Negroes as domestic servants or in forms of manual and menial labor from which the bulk of the race must make its living. It was the voice of wealth that beckoned the Negro northward to engage in industries as result of the World War. The Negro laborer at present lacks the ability to provide work for himself. Ninety-nine per cent of the race must do work to the wealthy whites for employment. Where accumulated wealth does not exist, the Negro stands a poor chance. In the villages and small towns the black man finds little that he can get to do. The opportunities are monopolized by the poorer whites who rush in from the country. Therefore, when the Negro laborer quits the farm he never tarries in the small town, but makes a bee-line founded in 1875 by the late F. H. Harriman, was the first boys' organization in the country. It started with three members, and now has 7,500. The American flag was first untreated in battle near Rome, N. Y. in 1776, at Fort Schuyler. New York States has 20,853 National Guardsmen. This is the largest state enrollment, and nearly double that of Pennsylvania which, with 11,029, comes second, Massachusetts is third. The value of New York State farm products in 1926 was nearly half a billion dollars. The largest item was milk, worth 175 million dollars. Hay came next, with a value of 95 millions. Four Secretaries of the Navy have been appointed from New York State. The first was Smith Thompson, appointed by President Monroe in 1818. The last was Berghmin Tracy, appointed by President Harrison in 1889. Empire State quartiles have an annual yield worth more than ten million dollars.

"Few Negroes Between Chicago and Denver" for the metropolis. He knows by an unfalling instinct that the richer whites there will give him work to do. The farm is the wide open opportunity for the Negro. He has some chance, even in the West. The Negro farmers not only become self-employed, but afford employment for others and his race. The whites in some sections are leaving the farm. The Negro, true to his imitative character, swiftly follows suit. He imitates the white man without intelligence. The city industries are in the main those reserved for white working men. They organize themselves and leave the Negro on the outside. Or, if they appear to take him in, it is only seemingly so. The work of the farm is hard. The remunerations at present are small. The number of Negroes owning and working farms is falling off. Every time a white man loses a farm, some other white man falls heir to it. Whenever a Negro gives up a farm, it lapses back to the white lord from whom it was derived. The inducements of the city are great, but great also are its drawbacks. The wages are apparently high, but living conditions are equally high. In many instances the city Negro pays half of his income for rent. In the country income is low but rent is practically free. There are no Negro farmers in the North Mississippi basin. If there be an exception here and there, it only proves the rule. I certainly saw no indications of a single Negro farmer on the trip of a thousand miles from Chicago to Denver. The comparatively few that used to exist have given up their farms for mental service in the cities. It will require a long time to convince the average Negro that the country, under present conditions, offers the best opportunity. It certainly offers him a place in the sun which he does not seemingly want. A shade loving people can hardly hope to make any great headway in dealing with primary conditions. A sheltered race develops flabby will. These are some of the reflections which occur to me on the wing. I shall proceed from Denver to the Pacific Coast, and shall make some observations concerning the future of the Negro in this American Paradise of the Pacific. Now, gentle reader, I am not a car window sociologist, basing a final philosophy on first impressions. I have been over this ground several times before. These be serious conclusions, though hastily set down amidst the hustling incidents of a lecture itinerary, which covers some seven or eight thousand miles. products are limestone, sandstone, marble and granite. New York State cities employ nearly 900 public recreation directors, more than twice as many as any other State. Pennsylvania is second, with 330, and California third, with 270. One hundred and thirty-two children were killed by automobiles in New York State during the first four months of 1927. More than half of the country's imports and exports now pass through the Port of New York, and nearly 10,000 vessels entered or cleared from the Port in 1926. Pen Pointers By CLIFFORD L. MILLER.
