Emma Jones, 36, a tenant, and Samuel Grey, 34, of 257 West 142d street, were placed under arrest, charged with possession of policy slips in violation of Penal Law 974. Mrs. Jones was also charged with violation of the Volstead Act, as a large quantity of liquor is also said to have been found in the apartment by the police. She is also charged with "keeping and maintaining a gambling house." During the raid the police scooped up $1,210.91 in currency and $1,266 in bills, or nearly $3,000. Ball at $1,500 each was furnished by Junius M. Green, 168 West 136th street, at 6 o'clock the same evening.
Mrs. Jones and Grey were arranged in Heights Court Saturday morning before Magistrate Ewald, who held them in $1,000 bail each for a further hearing tomorrow.
The raid, which was staged by Detectives Baccargil and Casson of the Sixth Division, is considered by the police as one of the most important raids they have ever made on Harlem's "numbers bankers." Thousands of policy slips are said to have been found in a trunk in the apartment.
Inspector Ryan took personal supervision of the case and questioned the prisoners at the West 135th street station in an effort to learn the identity of the heads of the policy ring. Sensational disclosures are expected at tomorrow's hearing.
Whether or not Mr. Holstein will be brought into the case cannot be

While under the influence of liquor which had laid him low, in the hallway of 182 West 134th street, Ernest Dotson, 34, 106 West 147th street, is said to have resisted arrest, drawn a knife and choked Patrolman McFadden of the West 135th street station, who came to arrest him about 4.30 p.m. Monday. Dotson was shot in the left leg by the policeman and is now in Harlem Hospital under arrest, charged with resisting arrest and felonious assault. Minnie Walker, janitress of the flat where Dotson was found, reported his presence to the police, Agnes Lanier, a tenant, said that Dotson was neither noisy nor disturbing, but only blocked the doorway to her apartment, which is on the second floor. According to Mrs. Lanier, she saw Patrolman McFadden attempt to arrest Dotson, who resisted. She avers that Dotson had no weapon and was intoxicated to the point of weakness. After striking Dotson, said Mrs. Lanier, Patrolman McFadden fired three shots at the man, who sunk to the floor. Her story was corroborated by at least a dozen witnesses.
McHadden, however, relates that when Dotson resisted arrest he (Dotson) grabbed him quickly and firmly by the throat with one hand and drew a knife from his trousers pocket with the other. At this point he reached for his gun, he suid, and in extracting it from the holster the weapon discharged one shot, which entered Dotson's left leg.

WHITE MAN'S DAUGHTER AND MAID INDICTED
Charged With Conspiring to Slay Father so Former Would Inherit Property Said to. Be Worth Million Dollars
NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J.
Aug. 1. — Indictments charging conspiracy to murder were returned Friday by the Middlesex County Grand Jury against Miss Bessie Morse, white, of Prospect Plains, and her colored maid, Miss Manie Todd. They are charged with plotting to kill Miss Morse's father, her sister and brother-in-law and their adopted son.
As the indictments were voted, George F. Morse, Miss Morse's father, a wealthy farmer, declared the indictments were nothing but a "frame-up" and that he would stand by his daughter through it all. He furnished the $7,000 bond imposed on her at the time of the arrest recently, and has reiterated his faith that the whole story brought against her is false.
MAIL'S TESTIMONY
CAUSED INDICTMENTS.
It was on the story of Mamie Todd, whom Miss Morse took from a protectory at the age of 13, and gave a comfortable home, that the two were indicted. Miss Morse is said to have given the maid $1,200 to pay two gunmen to kill her relatives.
The "gunmen" later turned out to be the son of County Detective Ferd David and one of his son's friends. They have testified that Miss Todd gave them the $1,200 and told them to throw a bomb into the automobile of the family of Mrs. Grace Dey, Mrs. Morse's sister: Raymond Dey, her husband, and their adopted son, Elmer.
The prosecutor said he would rely almost entirely on Miss Todd's story, seeking corroboration from David's son and his friend. The theory of the prosecution is that Miss Morse was plotting to kill her relatives so that she could obtain the fortune of her father, who is reputed, to be a millionaire.
DAUGHTER IN NO NEED.
SAYS FATHER.
The aged farmer, however, says that he is worth "only about half of that" and that the idea his daughter was conspiring to murder him is foolish. In refuting the charge he pointed out that three years ago she had received $10,000 from him and was in no need of money.
All during the investigation and the hearings before the grand jury Miss Morse continued in her capacities as housekeeper for her father on his farm fifteen miles south of this city.
HARLEM OVERRUN BY PETTY THIEVES; SCORES ARRESTED
That a considerable amount of stealing is being done in Harlem is plainly indicated by the police records, which are filled with thefts, robberies, burglaries, hold-ups and fleecings, either attempted, perpetrated or suspected.
Richard Daly, 28, 150 West 141st street, and Thomas McCann, 22, 56 West 142nd street, were arrested by Detective Boyden of the West 135th street station, charged with holding up Munford Ayers, white, a milk inspector, 32 Moylan place, and robbing him of $10 at the point of a knife on the second floor of 160 West 141st street, where he was making collections, on the morning of July 20.
Marshall Redd, 108 West 141st street, also complained that he caught Daly wearing a shirt belonging to him, adding that Daly had burglarized his apartment on the morning of July 19. The men pleaded not guilty.
Both prisoners were held without ball for the Grand Jury, when arraigned before Magistrate Ewald in Heights Court Thursday.
Lew Lewis, alias Joseph Lewis, 19, 10 West 135th street, accused of entering the tailor shop of Edward N. Jones, 44 West 135th street, by boring holes in the front entrance, and stealing $500 worth of his customers' clothing, was arrested Friday by Detective Boyden of the West 135th street station and arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate Ewald, who held him without ball for the Grand Jury on a charge of burglary.

James Perkins, 40, 2363 Seventh avenue, and Clarence Hart, 33, 127 West 141st street, charged with arceny, were discharged by Magistrate Ewald in Heights Court Friday, when the complainant Kitty Schofield, 664 Lenox avenue, together with her attorney, Louds A Lavelle, 15 Park place, and two witnesses, failed to prove that the rings, which they are alleged to have tried to sell, were Mrs. Schofield's property.
The rings were missing from a cup in a kitchen closet after Hart and Jenkins had called at Mrs. Schofield's home to visit a friend April 13. Detective Duane of the West 135th street station made the arrests.

J.E.K.AGGREY, GOLD COAST EDUCATOR, SUCCUMBS SUDDENLY
Distinguished Scholar Came Here to Visit His Wife — First Native African to Receive Doctor's Degree at Columbia.
Professor James E. Kwegyir Aggrey, native African scholar and educator, died at Harlem Hospital Saturday evening. He was vice-principal of Prince of Wales College at Achimota, on the Gold Coast of Africa, the largest educational institution on the continent.
Following a visit to the South for three weeks, Prof. Aggrey was the guest of his friend, W. G. Rablan, undertaker, 2519 Seventh avenue. Early Saturday morning he complained of pains in the head, and toward evening he became seriously ill. A physician was called in, and he was rushed to Harlem Hospital about 6 o'clock. He died ten minutes later. Pneumococcal meningitis was the cause of his death, physicians reported.
Prof. Aggrey came to America over twenty years ago, and was for a number of years, a professor in Livingstone College, Salisbury, N.C., of which school he is a graduate. Later he received the degree of doctor of philosophy, from Columbia University, being the first native African to be awarded it.
He became vice-principal of Prince of Wales College in 1925. He was also associated with the Phelps-Stokes Fund, 101 Park avenue, representing their educational activities in Africa for a number of years.
The Phelps-Stokes Fund was created for the purpose of assisting in the education of Negroes in all parts of the world.
On July 2. Prof. Aggrey visited his wife, Mrs. Rose Aggrey, in Salisbury, N. C., where she is also a teacher at Livingstone College. During his three weeks' stay there, he began an interesting volume on his native country.
Funeral services over the remains of Prof. Aggrey were held 1.30 p. m. Monday at Mother Zion A. M. E. Church, after which his body was shipped to Salisbury for burial. Mrs. Aggrey did not come on to New York but remained in Salisbury, where services will also he held today.
Prof. Aggrey was born fifty-five years ago near Cape Coast Castoe, Gold Coast, Africa. He is survived by a widow, a son, and two daughters.
"He was the greatest African of his day," said Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes at the Monday funeral services.
UNKNOWN MUSICIAN WHO REFUSED TO PAY FOR COFFEE SOUGHT
Johnny Brent. 50. proprietor of Johnny Brent's Sea Food and Chop House. 2195 Seventh avenue, lies in Harlem Hospital in a serious condition with three bullet wounds, one in each leg and one in the abdomen, following an altercation with a musician about two o'clock yesterday morning, while the chop house was filled with patrons. The assailant's name could not be learned, although he is said to be known by Mr. Brent. He has not yet been apprehended.
Divorce Sleuths Raid Yearwood
Hallen Yearwood is alleged to have been trapped about three o'clock yesterday morning in his apartment at 101 West 126th street with Lucy E. Brown, with whom he is said to have been living at the above address for about three years.
The raiding party was led by Mrs. Brown's husband, John Lloyd Brown, and operatives of the Boulin Detective Agency, 110 East 125th street.
Accompanied by a dozen witnesses, Brown and the private detectives surprised the pair in bed. Mrs. Brown screamed the moment she was awakened. A lodger, believing that the party had intruded illegally, came to Yearwood's defense, but was forced to retire from the fray, it is said.
Papers were served on Yearwood, the correspondent, yesterday, and Brown has begun divorce proceedings through his attorney, Cornelius W. MacDougald, 200 Broadway.
In November, 1926. Brown attempted to get a divorce on the strength of a letter of confession from his wife and the testimony of a janitor. Yearwood was named as correspondent. The case culminated before Judge Leander B. Faber in the N. Y. Supreme Court in Brooklyn, the jury rendered a verdict in favor of Mrs. Brown, but Judge Faber set aside their decision.
Mrs. Brown then sought an appeal from the judge's decision in the Appellate Division in April, 1927. At this time it was necessary to arrest the janitor as a witness in the case. He suddenly suffered a lapse of memory during his testimony and the wife won the case, receiving allmony of $10 a week.
William Taylor, from whom Brent leased the property, relates the incident as follows:
About two o'clock the musician came in and ordered a cup of coffee and refused to pay for it. Percy, the waiter, reported to Brent, who asked the fellow to pay. He replied that he had left with Brent a banjo valued at $150, which he declared would more than pay for his coffee. Brent denied that he had left the instrument there, whereupon the musician cursed him and charged him with stealing it.
This angered Brent, who struck the man, and a tussle followed. Detective Robinson of the West 153th Street Station was in the place at the time, it is said, and he ejected the disturber. The incident was thought to be over, when some time later the banjo picker returned and fired at Brent three times and fled. Although painfully wounded in both legs and the abdomen, Brent walked back into the restaurant and told his employees that he had been shot and was on his way to the hospital. He was driven to Harlem Hospital in a friend's car.
An operation was performed early yesterday morning, at which time it was discovered that one of the bullets had perforated his intestines seven times. At press time his condition was reported as very serious.
HIT COP; FINED $10.
Edward Chapman, 34, of 207 East Ninety-seventh street, was fined $10 by Magistrate McQuade in Harlem Court when policeman Charles Hoffman of the East 104th Street Station said that Chapman had struck him across the leg with an iron bar.
CORRECTIONS
"As long as Negro traffickers of human bodies are in business the vile stench from this morass will continue to pollute the community and Negro manhood and womanhood will continue on the road to degeneration," is the way the sentence in the fourth paragraph of Headley B. Bulley's "Letter to the Editor" should have read in the July 20 issue of The Amsterdam News.
"Good-time" institutions and not "good-will" institutions were talked about in the sixth paragraph of the same letter.

Two methods of purchasing these apartments have been adopted for the convenience of the tenants. They are as follows:
A. Purchasers desiring to get immediate reduction in the monthly cost may make a cash down payment of $100 for each room in the apartment selected. For example, for four rooms the cash payment would be $400, and the monthly charge thereafter would be $14 per room, or $56. The $14 per room charge includes payments on the balance of purchase price and the cost of all upkeep such as taxes, water, building insurance, management, and care of gardens.
Persons not able to make the $100 per room cash down payment will be granted the privilege of renting for three years. The rental rate will be $17 per month for each room. For example, a four-room apartment would cost $68 per month. Tenants desiring to purchase at the end of three years will be allowed credit of $2 a room per month toward the purchase price. Such credit to the occupant of a four-room apartment when and if the apartment is purchased would amount to $2$S for the three years
The Rockefeller co-operative apartments is a semi-philanthropic idea which is projected throughout the city by Mr. Rockefeller, and are designed to lend relief in the cute housing condition existing among the laboring and white color elements in the various communities.
Before entering upon this project, Mr. Rockefeller had a thorough investigation made and it was discovered that in Harlem the color residents were paying approximately 60 per cent of their income or house rent. In order to meet the landlord, the families of Harlem were subjected to the most explorable conditions. Quite often two or three families occupied one apartment. Roomers were taken to the various homes indiscriminately. Children were taken out of school and forced to assist in the solution of this economic problem. All of this made for the distraction of the family, the most important unit in our social life.

H. R. George & Co. Holds Public Meeting
At a public meeting, held under the auspices of H. R. George & Company, Inc., on Thursday there were present the two attorneys of the firm and a large attendance of visitors and stockholders of the company. The Rev. R. M. Bolden presided.
Former Justice John G. Dyer chief attorney of the firm, and Attorney Nathaniel Phillips, a member of Mayor Walker's Committee and president of the Foreign Born Citizens' Organization of this city, also spoke. Mr. Phillips referred to the offer of $23,000 made to Mr. George by his former employer to purchase 49 per cent interest of the firm, provided the other shareholders, excepting Mr. George, relinquish their connections with the firm and accept their principal, with 10 per cent interest thereon. That offer, he said, was not a philanthropic one, but was made because Mr. Converse was constantly in touch with Mr. George and had become familiar with the possibilities of his firm. Another guest was J. C. Schrader, who was sent by a large brokerage firm of Cincinnati, Ohio, to negotiate a matter involving several million dollars with the Guarantee Trust Company.

The usual five factions, representing the 202 Negro County Committeeemen, were at loggerheads, as usual. The white County Committeeemen, numbering about sixty-eight, for the first time in recent years split against the leader, Robert S. Conklin—some following one candidate and some another.
Mrs. Richard E. Warner, wife of Richard E. Warner, convicted prohibition agent, former Alderman George W. Harris and Ellis Rivers were the candidates for the aldermanic designation. After the ninth ballot it was found that Mrs. Warner consistently polled 42 votes against 26 votes for Harris and 24 for Rivers.
Jury Finds Major Gray Guilty of Manslaughter
Major Gray, 29, 229 West 144th street, who was indicted for murder in the first degree following his arrest as the result of an altercation with George Allison, 126 West
At this junction, it was decided that since neither of the candidates had polled two-thirds of the votes a special committee should be appointed to go out and bring in the name of a compromise candidate. Chairman Oscar Igstadter appointed the following members on this committee: Robert S. Conklin, Perry Ansorce, Margaret Sealy, Jacob Welsbaum, J. Clifford Hawkins, Charles W. B. Mitchell, Mary O'Neil, Edgar M. Grey and Pauline Snowden.
After twenty minutes of deliberation the committee, with the exception of Charles W. B. Mitchell, who made a minority report, brought in the same of John Clifford Hawkins as its choice. The committee's report was rejected and balloting resumed on the previous candidates. On the first ballot two other candidates' names appeared—Edgar M. Grey and Alton Nelson. The vote was now Warner, 39; Harris, 12; Rivers, 15; Grey, 2; Nelson, 1. Harris, Rivers, Grey and Nelson withdrew, and after more balloting Hawkins was nominated, receiving 41 vote. Mrs. Warner reclaiming 35 to the last
Never before in the history of political conventions in the Twenty-first district has any man or woman shown more remarkable strength than did Mrs. Warner. Leader Conklin explained that the reason that he voted for Hawkins and for Harris throughout the convention was not because he held anything against Mrs. Warner, but that because of certain private and personal reasons she ought not to be the candidate at this time. The Mitchell faction split wide open; some voting for Mrs. Warner, others for Rivers and Hawkins, Felix Unger, a white Republican, was designated for the Assembly unanimously.
In a fire in a studio at No. 31 West Sixteenth street, Monday, Rose Pollock, white, age 15, was burned to death and Miss Jean Sutherland, a maid, was painfully burned, along with several other occupants of the house.
How To Reduce Varicose Veins
Rub Gently and Upward Toward the Heart as Blood in Veins Flows That Way
Many people have become dependent because they have been led to believe that there is no remedy that will reduce swollen veins and bunches.
If you will get a two-ounce original bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil (full strength) at any first-class drug store and apply it night and morning as directed you will quickly notice an improvement which will continue until the veins and bunches are reduced to normal.
Moone's Emerald Oil is a harmless, yet most powerful germicide and two ounces Inst a very long time. Indeed, so powerful is Emerald Oil that old chronic sores and ulcers are often entirely healed and anyone who is disappointed with its use can have their money refunded. All drugstores sell lots of it.

Jury Finds Major Gray Guilty of Manslaughter
Major Gray, 29, 229 West 144th street, who was indicted for murder in the first degree following his arrest as the result of an altercation with George Allison, 126 West 134th street, in which Gray stabbed Allison to death, was found guilty of second degree manslaughter before Judge Charles C. Nott and a jury in General Sessions last week. Judge Nott sentenced Gray to Sing Sing Prison for not less than seven years.
Attorney C. G. A. French, who defended Gray, brought out to the jury's evident satisfaction that the murder was not a premeditated one and was the result of the convicted man having been attacked. Mrs. Gray, who testified on the stand against her husband, said that Gray accused her of telling family troubles to her people, the dead man being a brother-in-law of Mrs. Gray.
Threats of Lynching Made Again in S. C
COLUMBIA. S. C. Aug. 1.—Threats are being made that if a plea of insanity made in behalf of William McKinley Thomasson, 18, is allowed by the courts and has escaped the electric chair to which he has been sentenced, citizens of the county will take him from the State penitentiary and lynch him. Early in the afternoon of June 25 Mrs. Frances Thomasson, 78, a white woman of the same name, was found on her husband's farm in the "Filbert community, of York County, with her throat cut. Thomasson had been seen on the farm, it is said, and he was arrested. Thomasson was tried July 11, defended by lawyers appointed by the court, and he pleaded not guilty. He has been sentenced to die Aug. 12.

Good Samaritan Sent to Jail
Let White Woman Take Nap in His.Bed
The role of Good Samaritan brought an opposite reward to Livingston Brown, 30, elevator operator, 202 West 143d street, following his kindness to Helen Kaplan, 16, white, 1053 Southern boulevard, whom he offered a place to rest in his home, when Brown was arraigned before Magistrate Ewald in Heights Court Thursday and sentenced to thirty days in the workhouse on a charge of disorderly conduct. The girl was remanded without ball for further investigation, charged with vagrancy.
Brown, who is employed in an apartment house at 163d street and Southern boulevard, said the girl called there early Thursday morning and asked to be taken to the third floor to visit a friend. She soon returned, he said, and asked if she might rest in the hallway and asked for a drink of water. Learning that she was hungry also, Brown said he bought her a sandwich and gave her a dime. She asked his address, which he gave her when she left, Brown related. When he arrived home he found her sitting on the stoop. She followed him upstairs and into his apartment. She said she was very sleepy, after walking the streets all night, and asked if he would permit her to lie down to rest. She undressed and went to bed, Brown said.

Detectives believe that the place they raided was a clearing house for "numbers bankers" in many cities, and especially in New York. The money in the apartment is said to have been the receipts mailed in by their agents. It required four men to remove the confiscated material to the station house, and the apartment is now under police surveillance.

Former Georgia Warden Arrested
Former Georgia Warden Arrested
Accused of Being an Accessory After Fact in
MACON, Ga., Aug. 1—W. M. Phillips, white, former warden of the Dodge County prison camp, was arrested last week and lodged in the Bibb County jail, charged with being an accessory after the fact in connection with the killing of W. T. Andrews and the shooting of his wife early Sunday by two colored then near Milan, Ga. Andrews and his wife were white. Phillips was arrested and placed in jail at McRae, but sentiment became so strong against the man that he was removed to Macon for safety. In the Bibb County jail also are two Negroes charged with the crime and a third who was arrested with them. Like Phillips, they first were jailed at McRae, but were removed to Macon.
Officers who arrested Phillips stated that the charge against him grew out of the discovery that the pistol used by Wilbur Galloway in killing Andrews was the property of Phillips. Also, the officers allege, Galloway used Phillips's razor to shave off his mustache after the crime. Aside from Galloway, William Rountree and Mose Banks were arrested by a posse near the scene soon afterward. Rountree confessed Monday in jail and said Galloway did the killing. Banks, he said, had no connection with the crime.

Every morning at 11 a.m. and every evening at 6 p.m. mundreds of boys may be seen rushing to the "Y" building to get on the line which leads down to the cooling and refreshing water of the pool.
Six hundred boys was the number between Monday and Friday of last week. Boys from St. Cyprian's Church and the Daily Vacation School of Mother Zion have been guests of the "Y" on Wednesday morning for several weeks.

Elks' Long Fight Comes to Close
Permanent Removal of Injunction Results From Controversy
Finis has now been written to the now famous injunction secured by the white Elks in the State of New York against the Negro Elks over nineteen years ago, restraining the latter from appearing as Elks in public or using the name "Elks." On Friday Supreme Court Justice George H. Taylor handed down a decision permanently removing the injunction from the court records of this State. And thus it seems that out of the six months' controversy that had been waged between Grand exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson and the New York convention committee has come an everlasting good.
The final order is a tribute to the work of the legal committee of the general convention committee, headed by Attorneys John Clifford Hawkins, Francis E. Rivers, and Pope Billups.
Just how this signal victory was accomplished would fill much space. Briefly, credit goes no Judge Edward H. Henry of Philadelphia for much of the groundwork in securing from the former head of the B. P. O. E., a prominent Philadelphia city official, his aid in having the white grand lodge look with favor upon the removal of the injunction. To William T. Phillips, secretary of New York Lodge No. 1, white Elks, considerable credit, for he testified on the witness stand at White Plains that the two branches of Elks were no longer opposed to each other.
At the meeting of the general convention committee Saturday night, held at the convention headquarters, Imperial Home, in West 129th street, the grand exalted ruler was present and presided.
HELD IN SHOOTING.
Don Hughes, 25, 164$ Park avenue, was held in $2,000 ball for the Grand Jury on Thursday by Maxistrate McQuade in Harlem Court. Hughes was charged with shooting Fred Smith of the same address in the left arm, following an argument.

Abandoned Child; Mother Arrested
Abandoned Child; Mother Arrested
Baby Found by Janitor and Taken to Police
Station
Victoria Johnson, 20. 38 West 129th street, a laundress, charged with abandoning her one-year-old baby, Fred, on the top landing in the hallway of 246 Bradhurst avenue, was arrested by Detective Moore of the West 135th street station Sunday. James Holden, the janitor, found the baby wrapped in a white blanket about six o'clock Thursday evening. He summoned Patrolman Frank Dickie, who took the foundling to the West 135th street station.
The mother called for her child at the station house Sunday afternoon. She explained, according to Detective Moore, that she had no visible means of support, and had left the child in the care of a friend downtown. She was then placed under arrest. Investigation proved the woman's story to be false, said Detective Moore. She was arraigned in Heights Court Monday morning on a short affidavit.
Reported to have run away from home, two sisters, Palmyra and Camille Braithewaite, aged 11 and 10, respectively, 361 West 153d street, are being sought by the police. They were last seen at home Saturday morning. Their father,
Felix Braithewaite, placed the case in the hands of Detective Sergeant Battle of the West 135th street station. Both girls were of dark complexion with brown eyes and black hair, wearing white dresses with red and white bottom, low black shoes, cream stockings and yellow metal earrings. They were born in Brazil.
Burglars Rob Girls' Apartment
Make Away With $1,000
Worth of Loot, Including $200 Trousseaux
Two Harlem debutantes, Elizabeth Nixon and Carrie Dunlap, 219 Edgecombe avenue, suffered a robbery of their apartment last week, at which time the intruder took over $1,000 worth of new clothes and jewelry, including a $200 trousseaux. The robbery was immediately reported to the police, and Detective Christiano of the West 135th street station, was assigned to the case. No clue to the robber has yet been found.
Returning home 5 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, July 26, Miss Nixon discovered that her apartment door had been ripped open and smashed in, though the locks remained unbroken. The rooms were a wreck, she said, with things scattered everywhere, drawers emptied and the bed overturned. A burglar's jimmy was found under the bed, she said. Miss Dunlap came home about $7.30 p. m.

WHEN a husband nags his wife it's a sign he loves her," said Justice William H. Smathers, in an Atlantic City Domestic Relations Court last Saturday, as he dismissed a complaint of a woman against her husband and sent them home to live together.
The words of the judge may be true. Nevertheless, the fact remains that most of us find it easier to accept nagging as a form of hate rather than as an expression of undying love.
"A husband's nagging should be music in a wife's ears," continued the judge, "and the more he nags, the more she should love him."
How many of us are willing to accept the judge's decision and abide by it? It is granted that "the course of true love never did run smoothly," but nagging might add unnecessary pit holes—T.E.B.

Judgment for Edel Rosenfeld
The corporation, headed by Counsellor Samuel F. Edmard, known as the Shoobra Palace & Realty Corporation, is about to lose a piece of property, according to a judgment of foreclosure and sale made and entered in the Supreme Court of Kings County bearing date of July 7.

The judgment is dated July 13 and signed by William A. Fischer, as referee. The auction is started in the name of Edel Rosenfeld. According to the record in the County Clerk's Office, the Shoobra Palace & Realty Corporation was started in 1922. The capital stock was $10,000, but the corporation started with $1,000.

Haled to Court on Charge of Stabbing Wife
While she did not want to have him prosecuted even after he had stabbed her in the neck with a carving knife, Mrs. George Hebron was urged by the authorities to do so and as a result George Hebron, 23, a butler, of 473 Clinton avenue, appeared in the County Court July 27 to answer the charge of assault in the first degree. George is alleged to have attempted to carve his wife up several months ago while on a apre that had been the result of copious imbibing of some downtown "corn liquor." He was in the Raymond street fall until July 25, when he was released on 55,000 bail.
According to the police, Hebron was in the downtown section and made threats to cut up his wife. The more he drank, it is alleged, the more violent he became. Friends are reported to have warned Mrs. Hebron to avoid meeting her husband. She thought that her winning ways would cause him to forget his supposed will statements, for when he went to a house on Cilicie place where she was living she attempted to rea- with him, but Hebron would not reason and is alleged to have seized a carving knife and cut his wife in the neck.

Shots Stop Escaping Man
Esau Wilson Arrested and Charged With Stabbing Howard Dean
Esaun Wilson, 26 years old, of 1448 Bergen street, was looking for his wife in the apartment of Howard 11. Dean, 52, of the same address, Sunday, July 24, but did not find her, according to Detective Sockinger of the Atlantic avenue station, but he did cut up Mr. Dean, and as a result he was arraigned in the Gates avenue court Thursday, July 28, on a charge of felonious assault made by Dean. He was held in $1,000 bail. Dean was cut badly on the right arm and left shoulder. According to Dean, Wilson, who lives on the first floor of the apartment house, came up to his apartment, which is on the top floor, and knocked on his door. When he inquired as to what Wilson wanted, Wilson stated that he wanted his wife. Mr. Dean answered that she was not in the apartment.
This did not seem to satisfy Wilson and he is reported to have broken down the door and entered the apartment. Dean tried to stop him and in doing so he was stabbed by Wilson. Wilson ran from the house and was not found by Detective Seekinger until Tuesday. He found the man in the downtown section. He made an attempt to escape and the detective was forced to fire several shots over his head before he would stop.

Said to Be Working To gether in Brooklyn; Some Caught
There seems to be a tendency among colored and white bandits to drop racial distinction when it comes to crime. For some time the daily papers have spoken of the "black and white bandits" who have successfully robbed the collectors of several chain stores. They have not been caught yet. But a colored boy and two white boys, who must have had the "black and white bandits" in mind, had worse luck last week when they robbed the Penny Arcade at 1118 Surf avenue, Coney Island, early Thursday, July 28. After taking $187 they were arrested. The prisoners are described as Archie Brown, 27, of 1118 Surf avenue; Nathan Montalge, 24, white; and Rubin Cohen, 22, white. Brown lived above the arcade.
According to the police, Officers Bolan, Brown and Higgins of the Coney Island station, two men were observed loitering in front of the place. When they approached they observed Brown and Cohen "pitching pennies" for a mark on the walk in front of the arcade. Patrolman Bolan kicked a black bag that he saw on the walk near the two men. It jingled. He attempted to lift it but to his surprise it was exceedingly heavy. He investigated and discovered that the bag was marked with pennies. The colored and white men were taken into custody by Officer Bolan. Patrolman Brown and Higgins entered the arcade and claim that they found another white man, who proved to be Montague, hiding behind a penny machine.
The three men were taken to the Coney Island station, where, after about a half hour's grilling, they are alleged to have admitted the robbery. The police claim that cash amounting to $7 was stolen, meant it in minutes. The men were arraigned in the Coney Island court later in the day and were charged with burglary.
Pittsburgh Minister Hits at Segregation in Caucus
The United Presbyterian Conference opened at Stony Brook, L. L. last week under direction of the Rev. Dr. Walter B. Greenway of Philadelphia, and the Rev. Dr. Charles Miller of New York. The principal speaker was Dr. J. C. Orr of Pittsburgh, who attacked class distinction and said Negroes should not be kept from restricted residential districts. "God's love is the greatest thought expressed in the Bible," Dr. Orr said. "We will to increase our mental powers and an athlete makes every effort to strengthen himself physically.

"Home Ownership Lays Foundation Towards Financial Independence"
Prominent Real Estate Operator Gives Figures to Prove That Many Harlemites Would Be Better Off in Their Own Suburban Homes
Only two sorts of families should pay rent, those who are too wealthy to make thrift necessary and those who are too poor to have a margin of saving. For the great majority of people home ownership is almost prerequisite to creating a start toward financial independence. In estimating the comparative costs of renting and home owning, the costs should always be estimated in terms of compound interest; only thus, according to W. Burke Harmon, can the actual figures be appreciated.
"One of the most important differences between people who acquire wealth and those who remain in modest circumstances is that the former look on a dollar not as coin to be spent and forgotten, but as something able to earn six cents a year for all time to come," said Mr. Harmon.

"A man's attitude toward his monthly rent bill will often determine his entire opportunity for real success in life. I certainly if he has the acquaintance instinct, he will not merely as a contain percentage of income to be paid out monthly, but as capital which is capable of earning interest for the owner.
"In the amount of mere cash paid, a monthly rental bill of $60 will amount to a total of $6,000 in 10 years, $9,000 at the end of 15 years and $12,000 at the end of 20 years. But regardless of the amount, monthly rent payments of $50 are equivalent to the expenditure of $3,302.95 in 10 years, of $14,700.50 in 15 years and $23,83.10 in a 20-year period.
"Such a sum, invested in real estate, would purchase a far better house than could be rented for twice as much as $30 a month. The man who is debating whether he will automatically obtain over a period of years that other benefit, which consists of increase in the value of his property. In a city such as New York, where growth in real estate values is consistent, owners find that by the time he has paid for his property his land is a least doubled in value.
"The figures available to prove the argument for homeownership are so conclusive that one is forced to wonder, in spite of himself, why 7 per cent of the dwellings in New York City are rented a high-water mark in any other city in the United States. The only answer is that people do not think in terms of capital earnings or else they are willing to pay a undue premium to live in rented dwellings near the heart of the city.

Jack McVey Certainly Brought Back the Bacon When He Returned to N. Y.
Popular Welterweight Has Been Making Good in Points West and Showing the Fans and Fighters Why New York Has Been Wild About Him
When our own Jack McVey eased into town recently we cherished the hope he would drop in and give us an earful of those splendid victories he has been piling up in the West. Of course, the Amsterdam News has been the only paper of its kind keeping his friends advised of what he has been doing, but we always like to give "Mac" the glad hand personally, because he has been one of the most satisfactory performers we have ever had in these parts. New York cheered vociferously when McVey met and defeated Walcott Langford about three weeks ago in Cleveland, for Langford had been creating a sensation out West and the boys out that way thought he had McVey's number, and it was over long before the last cheer had died down. But McVey fooled them. They had never, since the days of the late Joe Gans, seen a man reach out and stop punches before they were started.
Jack guve Langford a boxing lesson for nine rounds, then knocked him out in the tenth. Before the end came Jack had Langford on the canvas four times. McVey's latest victory was over Bob Sage last Wednesday in Cleveland, where he has become one of the biggest cards because of his splendid work in the ring.
As the colored welterweight and middleweight champion Jack McVey has been more than holding his own, and for the "works" being set against him at Madison Square Garden our old friend Jesse McMahon would he giving the colored mitt pusher the chance which he so richly deserves to meet the best. Few of us will forget how McVey went into the ring a sick man to meet Joe Dundee just to hold up the card for Tex Rickard and his associates.
Among recent victories chalked up for the New York lightner we find Rocky Smith going out in five rounds; Langford in ten rounds; Jack Hood, English champion, losing to Jack after twelve hard rounds; beat Allentown Joey Gans in twelve; Sailor Friedman in ten; knocked out Bobby Barrett in seven; beat Harry Galfund in twelve; George Levine in twelve; Barney Adair in twelve; K. O. Phil Kaplan in four rounds when Kaplan toured the colored fighter when he found he was whipped; Marty Summers in twelve.
Some record, if anybody should ask you, and best of all, the exports all proclaimed that McVey should have been given a draw against Dundee, the worst they could have done if they wanted to at least appear fair after this battle.

Tuck Harris Hits His Eighth Homer on Bronx Team.
Last Sunday the New York Braves nine took a double header on super Oval. "Lofty" Gavin was credited with the first shutout for his team this season, when he held the Bronx Cites scoreless allowing the Bronxites four scattered hits against his team's nineteen hits and eighteen runs.
The second game was thrilling when "Silent" Leon Knight, put up a strong duel against L. Palmer of the N. Y. Tigers. The Tigers scored their first and only run in the first inning. While the Braves were held scoreless for six innings, Palmer lost his game in the seventh when Harris singled, "Babo" Daniels walked, and "Pep" Sasso's hunt filled the bases. Stevenson pinch-hitted and doubled, scoring the first two runs. The game ended 7-1, with the Tigers at the shorter end with five small hits.

Final Touch to Golf Tourney
Between Sixty and Seventy-five Entries Expected for Event
BOSTON, Mass.—Final arrangements for the annual open golf championship tournament were made last week at the Maplehead Country Club while B. C. Gordon, president of the United States Colored Golfers' Association was here.
The tournament will be held Sept. 4 and 5 on the Maplehead links. Between 60 and 75 entries are expected from all parts of the country. Chicago and Washington, it is best to head the list in memory with twelve each.
Shady Rest of New Jersey is entering eight players; St. Nicholas Golf Club of New York, three; New Orleans, La., Pinehurst, N. C. Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Derby, Pa., Jamaica, Long Island, Englewood and Atlantic City, N. J. will be represented aside from most every city in the New England States.
Since the last year's tournament several new associations have been organized by President Gordon and will be represented at Mapledgeal. Among them are the Atlantic City and Philadelphia Clubs, which do their playing on municipal links.
Tuskegee Ready for Lincoln
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala.
July 30—Interest in the Tuskegee
Lincoln football game is beginning
to be manifested here, when Tuskegee
Alumun living in the East
are making special plans for the
content which will be played at
Shibe Park, Philadelphia, on Saturday.
October 29. The game will mark the Tigers' second invasion of the East within as many years
for the purpose of playing the same team.
Last year the Southerners stormed and raged on Franklin Field, defeating Lincoln, 20 to 16, before
o persons. In what sport writers called "the most bitterly contested game of the year."
Tuskegee has been weakened by the loss of several star performers, among them Owen J. Duncan, all-southern end; Ashton C. Kitchen, captain and all-southern tackle; Earl Ellis, Tuskegee's great guard; Mosely Jackson, end; Benjamin M. Jordan, tackle, and several lesser lights.
Lincoln, under her new coach, Dr. Edward Morrison, the famous Tuft's star and former Howard mentor, and with the loss of few veterans from the 1926 squad, is going to be more formidable than last year.
Tuskegee Alumni in the East, and along the Southern Atlantic Seaboard, many of whom, for the first time since leaving the "Pride of the swift-growing South," saw the Tigers in action last Fall in Philadelphia, are looking forward to this second Tuskegee-Lincoln game with considerable interest.
Chicago, New York and Philadelphia, Detroit and Cleveland alumni are making plans to attend the game in large numbers, and are behind a movement to take Tuskegee's fifty-piece band to the contest. Tuskegee fans are already making arrangements to charter a special train for the trip North as was done last year.

PHILADELPHIA.—What becomes of ballplayers when they drop out of the big leagues? The writer has found the answer as far as some of them are concerned and that an answer right here in Philadelphia. They join up with Judy Gans and Sniittie Lucas, the bosses of the Eastern League All Stars.
Sniittie is one of those game guys who are thorough sportsmen and will take a chance on anything—once. His latest chance, and it bids fair to be a success, is in the baseball pools and whirlpools. The South Philadelphia harkened to the siren pleas of Judy Gans, erstwhile manager of Jim Keenan's Lincoln Giants and a star player of an older day, and started himself a ball club. He had the right man in Judy and that old-timer has surrounded himself with a group of athletes who know the national game and how to play it. They have been winning the majority of their battles and last Saturday turned back the strongest team in the district, the Philadelphia Elks, by a close 4-3 tally. The services of Charlie Hopkins, former business manager of the Wilmington Potomacs and of the Harrisburg Giants, have been requisitioned and "Hop" is doing the booking.
"Everybody who is anybody" is aware that Chappio Johnson can tell a ballplayer from a street lamp, and since that young man (well, he is young in spirit!) went far away from here several of his co-workers were at liberty. Judy, the Gans, snared the pick of them when he signed up Waters and Sess Johnson, outfielders: Flournoy and Kennedy, catchers, and Don Perry for utility duties. Namon Washington, with Hilldale for over two seasons, completes the outer defense.
Long Tom Allen, late of Clan Darbie and the Potomacs, is playing the greatest game of his career on first base, and he is flanked by the veteran Buck Handy, a Bee-Giant, at second. Bunny Downs, mighty atom, is on the hot corner and if you know your baseball you will recall his days of glory with Hilldale ere the coming of Warfield. Owens, who received his first lessons on the A.B.V.'s, of Indianapolis, is the short-felder.
Gans has a three-gun hurling crew and they turn in wins with pleasing regularity, proving that it still can be done, even as George Stallings did in 1914. Gillespie, of the Bacharachs: Pritchett, of the Black Sox, and Hackett, one of Danny McClellan's young men, are the three musketeers.
There is a real need and a real field for independent baseball and Smittie Lucas is endeavoring to popularize that field. He has made a good start on his program. He intends to develop young players and to provide a haven for those who cannot be used by the league clubs because of the smallness of their player list. He harbors no contract jumpers and wants to work in harmony with O. N. B. So here's luck to him! Games are being booked by Hopkins at 527 S. 17th street, this city.

TIGER FLOWERS of Atlanta, won a decision over Bill (Bing) Couley, of Lewiston, Me., in a ten-round bout at Newark, Conn. on last Thursday night.

Burke needed the edge to give it to some one of the two, and Gainus was so bad he came out second. The members of Jack Dempsey's training staff at the Spa and the boys had the lowdown, so to speak.

Forence Mills Again Gives Interview to a Leading European Publication
Sends Clippings to Amsterdam News to Prove That She Is Taking Advantage of Every Opportunity to Place Negroes in Favorable Light
On more than one occasion it has fallen upon the shoulders of Miss Florence Mills to occupy personal space in the European newspapers because of the wonderful success she has scored in the revue called "Blackbirds." How well Miss Mills represents Negroes in Europe has been from time to time shown in the Amsterdam News, the only publication in this country to which she personally sends information of her work.
Recently "C. M." writing in the Manchester Evening Citizen, after an interview with the lovable little star, had the following to say:

Recently "C. M." writing
Citizen, after an interview w
the following to say:
To snatch five minutes with Florence Mills during the performance of "Blackbirds" is something to feat. When she's not actually on the stage, she's either coming off or going on. I managed, however, to have a five-minute chat in the wings, not an ideal place for a talk, with a jazz orchestra going full steam ahead and the stage hands rushing about.
"How does Miss Mills strike one off the stage? Like all real comedians or comediennes, she has that touch of wistfulness, that hint of tears behind all the laughter, which is the stamp of real comedy. In spite of the fact that she is just a little bit tired—she has not had a night off for five years—there is tremendous energy in her slight frame.
The Color Bar.
It seemed inevitable that we should talk about the Negro attitude to life and the white man's attitude to the Negro. "We have been very well treated in this country" she said. "In fact, people could not have been kinder. That there is a color bar I know, but it is not so strong as it was. You see, apart from his own people, a Negro's life is difficult. We have some brilliant men in American lawyers, doctors and so on—yet their color stands in their way. I have a feeling that our own little efforts in 'Blackbirds' is doing something to break down the color prejudice, and that fact helps us tremendously in our work.
"Another thing, although the colored people have always been dominated by the white, there is no bitterness in the Negro's heart, no resentment. I am, of course, speaking of Negroes as a whole. There is a something in us. I cannot tell you what it is, but it is a happiness that always seems to triumph over depression and sadness. Take this company, for example. I have known some of my fellow players to go on feeling very sad and in the depths of misery, yet by calling up this reserve force, and by singing and dancing, they sink it. Our show is essentially the same every night, yet it is different every night. This reserve of happiness is always breaking out in unexpected places, and consequently our work does not seem like work, but is more like having a good time.
"This mysterious quality in the Negro make-up has attracted a number of eminent psychologists, who are studying the question just now."
In America.
"Do you find the color bar in America still as strict?" I asked. "No, it isn't, but in America I keep mostly to my own people. You see, we live our own life there, and find our own amusements, in our own theatres, and so on. We have, as you know, some fine actors. Paul Robeson, who acted in London recently, Gilpin, and others."
"Us them a Nero drama?"
"Is there a Negro, No, there is no actual Negro drama, in the sense that there is Negro music, but the American dramatist, Eugene O'Neill, for one, is beginning to take the Negro seriously and has treated various aspects of Negro life recently."

our talk. "This is a wonderful audience," said Miss Mills, "appreciative and understanding. Naturally, I like such an audience, and yet, I like a stolid one, too. When I am faced with a stolid audience, I know that I must make them my friends, and I—and the others—am on my mettle. We feel that it is something worth fighting for. Thero is, too—"
But what "there is, too," I shall never know, for there she was on the stage. Seconds are precious in "Blackbirds." C. M.
Anna Cooke Pankey
News came to us on Monday of this week of the death of Anna Cooke Pankey, another well known member of the theatrical profession. She was the wife of the late Theodore Pankey, who before he died created a part in the late J. Loulbie Hill's "Darktown Follies" some years previous to his death.
Mrs. Pankey died at the Philadelphia Hospital, Philin. Pa. For more than a week she was unconscious and did not recognize her mother up to the time of her death. Mrs. Pankey was an excellent singer.

Amsterdam News European Correspondent Gives Views on Attempt to Bar American Negro Artists From London — Honorable Lady Cook Among Prominent Britishers Fighting in Behaf of Our People

Dear Romeo:
Just a line to say hello and to let you know that to England.
This has certainly been a wonderful year for artists and I am afraid the unusual popularity that is in a measure part of the cause of the End Federation taking the steps they have in trying from entering England. The color question is very over here, and I care say that the American who bit to help spread the propaganda against Negroes.

However, the whole matter requires lots of the Negro artists are in this big world to stay, then fight to retain the recognition they rightly deserve.

"Rich Men's Sons" at the Roosevelt This Week
In "Rich Men's Sons," the Columbia romantic-drama coming to the Roosevelt Theatre, Ralph Graves earns for himself commendation—on his maiden effort as a director, as well as on his pleasing characterization of the masculine lead. He competently proves his versatility behind as well as before the camera. The entertaining story moves along quickly and logically, and
Manning in New Show Here Soon
Okeh and Columbia Record Artist Will Return to the Lafayette August 15
Sam Manning, who met with unusual success when he last appeared at the Lafayette Theatre, in the show said to have been written by Mrs. Amy Garvey, wife of the former Pretender to the "African Throne," is underlined for another appearance at the Lafayette week of August 15, when he returns with a new vehicle, entitled "Brown Sugar."
From a reliable source we have it that "Hey Hey," the previous vehicle starring Mr. Manning, meet success wherever it appeared after it left the Lafayette Theatre, but the size of the company, bad routing, unusual overhead and other things militated against it, although it did meet with a warm welcome whenever it managed to get into a theatre.
We understand that the new offering, which will again feature Manning, will come to us minus anything with which we are familiar in "Hey Hey." The new show is at present in rehearsal and an attempt will be made to give Lafayette audiences something worth while. Manning, for quite some time, has been recording exclusively for the foreign department of the Columbia records, at the same time making many successful records for the domestic department of the Okeh Company.
Manning is also getting ready to

Inherited young son, who meets romance in a steel mill, wins his way as office boy to the girl's heart, and proves his manhood. A thrilling race between the boy in a racer and the father in an express train makes a forceful high point in the action.

"Rang-Tang" Now Entering Its Fourth Week
Miller and Lyles in "Rang-Tang" at the Royale, Theatre have caught the popular fancy and are winning the plaudits of new admirers at every performance. No theatrical attraction in years has received the same measure of favorable comment. from the New York critics. Robert Garland said in the Evening Telegram: "The pace of 'Rang-Tang' is something at which to marvel. It begins with a bang, proceeds with a whoop, winds up with a cheer.

share with 'Hit the Deck' and 'Peggy Ann.'
"From curtain riso to curtain fall Miller and Lyles carry on their bitter bickerings. They are so true to type that only a southerner can tell you how true to type they really are. To my mind 'Rang-Tang' is Negro musical comedy at its best. There's nothing makehift, nothing half-hearted, nothing dirty about it. The music is good, the sets excellent, the singing and dancing frequently perfection."
This attraction enters its fourth week at the Royale and indications point to a long and successful run. The Wednesday midnight show attracts as big a crowd as any of the other performances is patronized by the clientele usually seen at the night clubs.

The Work of Mr. Haynes in Miller and Lyles' New Show Called "Rang-Tang." Is Again Attracting Attention on Broadway. A Voice of Rich Quality. With Tones as True as Those of an Organ. Serves to Give This Unassuming Artist a Splendid Opportunity at the Royale Theatre.
We understand that "Nigger Heavenawear," which was answered of "White Trash Downward" in our last issue is also in the program at the Royale Theatre. Das dat.

Does it pay? Well, now, if does pay let us all excuse it. But what if it doesn't? Then revert back to the title number of Whitney and Tutt some time ago: "Keep on Spillin."
Nix, nix. The Amsterdam News is not behind any advertising scheme, but we stop copting. I feel that the paper is seeking its purpose in carrying the story of a real advertising medium to the people of Amsterdam, such an idea, would it be too much to say we would not be coming a scheme which had its birth in the brain of motion picture operator? Dar now!
The colored performers in Europe certainly help us to carry out the idea that this is about the art of truly serving them and reaching their friends. Frances Mille, Johnny Hudgins, Ivan Knowing and Kathleen Yarborough all wrote in last week.
Then a cable came in from Hudgins the latter part of the week to top Killie. John does not know what vacation while noting in shape for another big baller on right on to Germany to take a journey. Johnny is hitched to Europe for a while yet.

Then he was found by good, old Floyd in his camera days. Then Floyd came back but unlike the Prodigal Son, we are still waiting to see him devouring the fated call of which "Cal" told us.

MUSE SCORES AT LAFAYETTE IN NEW SHOW Our Picture Gallery of Stars Now Playing
Muse's Show Goes Over Big
Star Brings Another of the Revues Which He Has Produced Successfully
Overcoming the handicaps thrown in his way by the violent rainstorm on Monday afternoon, Clarence E. Muse's "Miss Bandanna" scored a decided hit at the Lafayette Theatre, where it is booked for this week's engagement.
"Miss Bandanna," while departing somewhat from the revue type" in that a well-told story runs through the playlet, is nevertheless a revue. But it boasts of one of the finest casts which has ever appeared in a colored revue and is replete with splendid dances, unpleasant melodies and rollling comedy. There is also a scenic effect which would do credit to Broadway.
The opening scene is lain on a Mississippi levee, where a pretty romance starts between a stage trunk country girl and her youthful admirer. The story follows her adventures in the Mississippi Valley and in New York. The cast includes the following: Clarence E. Muse, S. T. Whitney, R. M. Cooper, George Backer, L. Randall, J. Mobley, Onion Jeffries, Walter Crumbley, Mable C, Ridley, Ike Paul, Alice Gorgas, Geraldine Mooding, Ollie Burgyne, John Henderson, Cecil Graham, Gordon Wilson and Hope Black. The well-known and extremely popular Three Brownies are also in the cast.
The music was provided by an orchestra under the leadership of Russell Smith.
the feature photoplay for the first part of the week is "Outlaws of Red River," starring Tom Mix. Beginning Thursday the film feature will be "Modern Daughters" with Edna Murphy and Bryant Washburn.

Some Flapper Commandments
Marjorie Bonner, in "Poor Girls," Lays Down the Essentials at the Douglas
Inconsistent as it may appear, a set of commandments for the modern flapper has been compiled—by a flapper. The compiler is virtuous young blonde. Marjorie Bonner, who appears in the Columbia drama, "Poor Girls," to be shown at the Douglas Theatre this Saturday.
Miss Bonner feels that the modern flapper is a creature distinct and apart from the rest of the world. But she insists that it is impossible for a flapper to retain her individuality and remain true to her type if she abides by ordinary rules and regulations.
For the salvation then of all happers who wish to hold fast to their peculiar, intriguing status. Miss Bonner submits the following modern and highly individual ten commandments:
Don't smoke except in public.
Never use profanity except before your parents.
Never wear cotton hose—wear skirt or nothing.
Don't eat meals at regular hours—it just isn't being done anymore.
Always sleep until noon.
Don't kiss any boy more than once, unless you are engaged to him—and then don't spoil him.
Roll you own, it more modest.
Be sure to cross your knees when photographed.
Don't tell any one anything:
"I think I've covered about all of the ground that is essential."
Miss Donner stated. "And all true flappers will agree with me that it is necessary to have some such rules to keep the flapper group up to its distinctive standard."

Real Flood at the Lafayette
Deluge Interieres With Show, but Has Humorous-Side
The violent rainstorm which broke over the city yesterday afternoon did thousands of dollars of damage to Harlem properties and interfered seriously with the opening of Clarence Muse's new show at the Lafayette Theatre. At the height of the storm, and just ten minutes before the show was to start, a large drain pipe gave way under the weight of the terrific downpour. The dressing rooms were flooded, and quick work was necessary to save the scenery and costumes. The music room was also flooded with eight inches of water and in the excitement the portfolios containing the music were lost. As a result the band had to go into the pit and play practically from memory.
With the arrival of two electric pumps and an emergency crew from the United Electric Light and
portrays a "mean" flapper role with convincing enthusiasm. As the flapper she betrays a self-sacrificing mother's dual life to an unsuspecting daughter—and brings on the dramatic situations of a vivid story.
Ruth Stonehouse is the night club hostess mother and Dorothy Revier the daughter. Edmund Burns portrays the daughter's sweeter heart, whom the flapper would have for herself, and Lloyd Whitlock is the smooth night club rounder. Wm. James Craft directed.

A rather humorous side of the difficulties which beset the management during this time came when Muse's flood scene was staged. This scene depicted the bursting of a Mississippi levee and the sweeping away of dozens of houses. One of the girls in the chorus, walking barefooted through four inches of water in the dressing room section, exclaimed: "Looks as if the Mississippi has flowed from the stage down here."

Barker, who was presented a purse of $50 by the Exiled Ruler of his work at the clubhouse.

Steele's Campaign for Elks' Head Grows Warm
1
That the candidacy of J. Dalmus Steele for the head of the Improved Benevolent Protective Order, Ellks of the World, is assuming proportions that make it formidable, is being evidenced more and more each day. The stalwart New Yorker, who has steadily stood out for the things that he believes to be right and who has had the courage of his convictions to fight against those things consistently which he believes to be wrong, now has an excellent chance to be elected grand exalted ruler at the coming convention, say several of the friends of Steele.
Known from coast to coast and in all circles where Ellks are in many Dalmus Steele has been to a position in Eichler here by his deeds, prominent men of the order throughout the country admit that he would bring credit and dignity to the office it elected.
Born in South Bend, Ind., he was taken by his parents when a little boy to the town of Eutaw, Ala., where he was reared. Finishing the public school of that place, he went to Newport, R. I., where in 1514, he joined the I. B. P. O. E. of W. Coming to New York shortly after, he entered the Holy Business Institute of Brooklyn graduating from the University of Washington, graduating the World War I was in the service of Urcle Sam and saw service in France with the Engineers.
Joining Manhattan Lodge No. 45 soon after he came to New York, he soon rose to a position of prominence there through the dynamic force that has characterized his actions from early boyhood. After Mr. Steele's first election as exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge, he held the position for five successive years, and only rallied it when he decided that he had held it long enough. During his term as exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge he instituted many reforms and brought the lodge up to a point where it is one of the most powerful in the city. If elected, he continued ruler of the Elks. Mr. Steele has pledged himself to work for laws that will make the term of the grand exalted ruler no longer than two years. He is in favor of the distribution of grand lodge offices geographically. He believes in a

The Negro on the Pacific Slope
There Are No Separate Schools in Washington and Oregon
IENT two weeks on the Pacific slope, extending from Seattle to San Diego. My observations cover a sufficiently wide scope to make a book. I can only set down fragmentary incidents in this release. Attention will be confined to the Negro contingent there. For many Negroes are concerned the Pacific coast, like all lands may be divided into three parts. In the northern division we them in Seattle, Everett, Tacoma and Portland. They are engaged in the ten-tailed industry, mainly of the metal type. There is little or indication in the direction of inter-relationship. The number of volcanic smelts that we do not constitute a factor which the business world is confined to reckon with. There is little or no attempt at residen-
The race is so thinly scattered throughout the whole population that they cannot easily get together for any concert enterprise either of business or social improvement. And yet race prelude to genocide characterized by the same violence. However few Negroes may be in a community, the most worship in their own churches and shave in their own barber shops. If there were one Negro in a town, as I finally found on one occasion, he would have to shave himself and cut his own hair.
It is interesting to note the more people in Washington of the state of Oregon touching the political and civil rights of the Negro. In Washington there is no question on this score.
On the other hand, Oregon carried on its statute books the moral distinctions of 1846 down to this very year of grace. It was during the week of my visit to the state that the legislature originated the obsolete provisions denying Negroes, mulattoes and Chinamen the right to own property or to vote in any election.
There is still a strong sentiment to this effect, as evidenced by the fact that a third of the voters still insisted in retaining these disabilities. It might be said that it was upon the insistence of Negroes bodies that the legislature finally, though relentlessly, agreed to rescind these dead letters of the law which the Fourteenth Amendment made inprint.
There are no separate schools in the two states, although a mining company from the South sought to establish such in their concessionary area. But here again the vigilance of the Negro peoples frustrated the practice, even in Oregon. I could not learn that there is a single Negro teacher in the public schools of the State. This, however, is the fault of the Negro people themselves. The Negro girls do not qualify under the law. In one instance at least a Negro graduate of the State University was offered work in the public schools of Seattle, but preferred service in another field.
As illustration of the general good feeling prevailing in Seattle on my first visit to the state was made the chief guest of honor at the weeek dinner of the National Commission of Spokane. A similar honor was awarded at Ernestt.
The marshal of Seattle met me in the station and drove me to my stopping place in the official machine. On my recent visit

sharply between such instances of courtesy and the general policy of the community as to the place of the Negro in the social scheme.
Between Portland, Ore., and Sacramento, Calif., there is a region of 700 miles. During this long stretch I did not see a single Negro except the crews on the Pullman and dining cars. San Francisco and Oakland and the region round about constitute the second part of the Pacific coast, so far as our population is. In San Francisco are less than 5,000 Negroes in this great metropolis; this gives the smallest proportion of Negroes in any other great city of America.
I saw no evidence of Negro enterprises here, but heard that there were a few manger barber shops and restaurants. Of course, one finds the inevitable Negro churches. The Japanese and Chinese are the enterprising non-white racial group. On arrival I requested my good host to point me to a barber shop. I was informed that there were no valuable items in the shop, but he directed me to a Chinese shop where both husband and wife were busy at the trade. I was waited on politely and efficiently and silently.
Across the bay from San Francisco lies Oakland, a city of some 300,000, with eight to ten thou sand Negroes. The life here is far more lively and tonic than one finds across the bay. It may be called Porter Land, for there are located here some 500 Pullman porters, who, with their families, constitute the basis of the substantial population of the race. Pullman porters change its policy as to the race alignment of its employees, the Negro communities throughout those regions would shrink to insignificant proportions.
I found hero what I had not before discovered anywhere in the country. Negro real estate men have seriously affected the prevailing tendency towards racial segregation. E. B. Gray, a realtor of enterprise and statemanship, has purchased lots in the city and constructed well appointed homes for Negro tenants at moderate terms of purchase. These homes are far superior to the average white homes by which they are environed. The white realtor, therefore, cannot palm off old-fashioned houses on the Negro purchasers while reserving the up-to-date cause a girl deliberately set out to set him. His faith in women was shattered again and again after that and now he trusts nobody.
He loves me very much but his imagination is leading to the most terrible absurdities. I do not drink or allow boys liberties. I believe in being true to THE ONE MAN, but he doubts my love for him and at times when I try to please him he says that I’m merely pulling off old stuff. I can’t seem to make him understand that I love him for himself. When he first met me I was as lively and gay of personality as could be, in a harmless way, of course. He admired me largely for those very qualities which he himself is causing me to lose. I’m anxious to do my part, Expysy Ann, because he’s clean-cut and a square-shooter and because actions on his part have led me to believe that he sincerely loves me. We expect to marry some day. Kindly tell me what you think of the matter.
Dear Jill:

homes for the white occupant.
I saw more moderate sized, well appointed and well furnished homes among Negro folks in Oakland than have fallen under my eye anywhere else in the country.
I must now pass to Los Angeles, the Paradise of the Pacific coast. During the last seven years it has been the fastest growing city in America. The Negro contingent has fully kept pace with the general growth. There are now from forty to fifty thousand of them in the city, their occupational status for the majority is the same as elsewhere on the coast. Los Angeles has four distinct social non-white groups: the Mexican, the Japanese, the Chinese and the Negro.
The Japanese and the Chinese, like the Jew and the Semaritan, have no dealings with each other. The Mexican has the political and social status of the white man, but is not able to avail himself of that distinction. The law of California forbids intermarriages between whites and Mormons as between whites and blacks. I might stop there to inject the suggestion that wherever antisegregation prevails, either in law or in supporting public sentiment, the groups thus forbidden will be segregated and subject to many forms of civil and social discrimination. The number of Negroes in Los Angeles brings up the issue of residential segregation, which operates about the same way as it does in Washington, New York or Chicago. The issue of separate schools has been somewhat compromised. There are twenty Negro schools composed in the main of Negroes or non-white
The Blodgett brothers came to Los Angeles some twenty years ago and began as bricklayers. They soon became independent contractors. There are today 150 Negro bricklayers in Los Angeles, who belong to the unions, and on the face of things find more orientation. These are the only Negroes in the city who find work in the mechanical trades.
Paul Williams, a young architect, ranks among the host of his calling on the coast and finds no lack of work on account of color. The professional classes here as elsewhere are doing well by skimming the cream and leaving the sour milk for the masses. On the whole, the lak Silkers' Club, composed of young ambitious literati, was the most encouraging indication which I met within this great city. The town to the city instead of taking up the outlying lands. His city opportunities are severely limited.
The white man on the Pacific coast is too busy in developing the great business of trade and commerce, of carrying on the work of mechanical construction, to bother with agriculture and truck gardening. He will not permit the Japanese to let him out at full length for reasons of international apprehension. The Mexican is too inert to engage in self-directive enterprises. The Negro has the opportunity of commanding the trucking industry of the Pacific coast. This region stretching for 1,500 miles along the Pacific, the finest climate on the globe, could absorb a million Negroes in the desert, and the acrid race question. If they would go to the country and feed the vast millions which are flocking to the Paradise of America.
of girl to whom I can safely give this advice. If you've found your friend to be clean-cut and a square-shooter, then I'd advise you to place his merits before his shortcomings. You understand the circumstances of his life and the great amount of tact and patience you can win.
Two cases of similar circumstances are recalled.
In the first case, the woman lost her mind because of her husband's continual false accusations. In the second case, the woman understood and forgave. She stuck by him by proving through her actions that she was true, won his confidence to such a degree, and as the personification of truth and honor. It took time, patience, tact and love to do it.
Don't give your friend any cause to misjudge you and don't try to keep him guessing--it won't work in your case. He'll become ashamed of himself as soon as he becomes the victim of false. Be tactful, dear, but don't be coerced. Keep on playing square and remember that TRUTH WINS. BGYPSY ANN.

A Key to Culture By LEOLA LILLARD
THERE is a vast difference between flirtation and friendliness. That a man enjoys the society of a charming woman, that a woman delights in the conversation of a brilliant man, is no sign that either of them is a flirt. Since censorshipness is a quality utterly antagonistic to good manners, it is well to reflect that while etiquette lays down many laws, it also indulges thereby grants generous absolution. While we decide that certain forms and methods of action are correct and good forms, we must remember that all people, ourselves included, are liable to remiss occasionally in little things, and that we must not hastily decide a man's status on the score of breeding by his punctilious observance of conventional law. There are some requirements of etiquette that have their foundation in the idea of convenience or feasibility; others that are essentially requisite as the exponent of decency.
The essentially well-bred man is he whose manners are the polite expression of moral principle, magnanimity and benevolence. Because of this control of human nature and impulse, it may appear that the characters are love-firing, but if we assume that there is a possibility of "love at first sight" and that the attraction of one person to another can be so magnetic that the laws of social conduct must instinctively check the desire to cry out in recognition of a satisfied vision, we may suspect that the action is false and that the real spirit of the man himself is seriously suppressed.
Few things are more vulgar than the readiness to infer a filtration from every case of marked mutual interest between a man and woman. The interchange of bright ideas interspersed with the spontaneous saliences of gallantry and the instinctive repatriate of innocent coquetry—an archery of wit and humor, grave and gay—this is one of the salient features of civilized social life. It has nothing in common with the shallow travesty of sentiment that characterizes the latter is bad form wherever and wherever existing. A sincere sentiment is not reduced to the strafs of expressing itself in such uncertain language
It is fair to conclude that some sincerity, or some lack of correct basis for sentiment, is betrayed in every pointless filtration. Young people's gratifying vanity by idle "conquests" so called make a sufficiently conspicuous show of ill breeding. They often hold that they are entitled to a "soul mate," and, like Diogenes with his lantern searching for an honest man,
A Dearth of Husbands
By AMY JACQUES GARVEY THEKE is usually a hesitancy among most people in discussing sex problems yet such matters are vital
The East has just begun to emerge from polygamous practices which permit a multiple of wives, according to a man's ability to support them. While its propositions contend that this system simulates prostitution and social dislocation, the normative servility of the modern nation retard the progress of those counties. Monogamy, while supported by a Western system, is just theory, the practice of which amounts to indiscriminate polygamy only one union at a time being legal, which brings in its wake social and mental diseases, destitures and bastardy. Western customs create a society where women have a free license for self-indulgence, while women who indulge likewise become social outcasts.
The spread of the knowledge of birth control has tended to increase sexual intelligence and this, in turn, is causing young men to refrain from marriage. Why? Because their physical desires can be satisfied without a wife, and without the danger of supporting illegitimate children. The young girl of a marriageable age waits in vain for marriage proposals; she must lower herself by resorting to furtive relationships or employ repressive control, which finally lands some in insane aylums or causes them to become nervous wrecks. The normal physical function of some women is that healthy women are prevented from so doing, a nervous reaction sets in.
Negro men, who, by the way, detest any sort of responsibility, contend that the reason they do not care to become husbands is because they are not fit for the task economically. But we feel that, since they make very little effort to lift themselves to the standard of economic independence, they really have not the proper love or respect for their husbands. This is the basic reason for the low status of the race and the insults heaped on Negro women by white men. American Negro women are their own breadwinners, whether
they go in quest of their own. This, in many instances, accounts for the pantomime of a pair of mischievous eyes blinking over the ten cup or over the shoulder at a "Prince Charming" matching "Ginderella" passing by.
A woman may accept every tribute that chivalrous men may offer to her talent or wit as long as it is expressed in a hearty spirit of good comradeship and with a clear and unmistakable deference to her self-respecting dignity, but well-bred women who womanhood any quasidimensional overtures from a man who has not the right to make them. Etiquette requires that the association of men and women in refined circles shall be break without freedom, friendly without familiarity. "Flirting" plebeian diversion. Every well-bred man will choose every well-bred man will hold a lance in rest.
There is an infallible constancy in good breeding like charity, of which it is so largely an exponent, it never faileth'. Good conduct requires that we shall be constant and consistent in our dealing. A man or woman who accepts filitratum takes upon himself or herself the risk of transcribing the active of the act. Perhaps it may sometimes seem that there is little relation between the sincerity of perfect infatuation and the proprietors of formal eliquency, to satisfy our selfish desires, to satisfy things that are literally cruel if our secret feelings were known.
There is an instance wherein the laws of society need transgress the laws of sincerity, when the ultimate purpose of each action is to develop and sustain a wholesome love and friendship.
they are married or not, and practically their only source of employment is in white men's factories or homes. They are, therefore, subject to the wives of such men, who abuse them for pleasure. What can the poor women do? They must either work or starve; quite often they have children dependent on their labor, and the men need impels them out of their insults and hardships so as to be able to provide for them.
How often one sees groups of men during the day standing outside pool parlor or leaning against "speak-easies," as if to give them physical support, and their conversation is usually in this strain:
"My old lady is a good chief; she makes $20 a week."
Next voice: "Oh, man! Mine can't be beat—she makes $40 a week in the factory during the rush season, and can clean up some good overtime."
Third voice: "Say, don't you know my wife does day's work? Fourteen a day and carfare, and when I get home the house is all cleaned up and my dinner just attained. I want to keep up appearances. In order to keep up appearances many women tolerate lazy husbands; but this bragging to bachelors about their hard-working wives puts the latter in the frame of mind of doing likewise. They argue: "If George can get a Jane husband, then I can get one. too." The result is lazy husbands or no husbands at all.
The ambitious, intelligent young woman, who is not disposed to support her husband, is, therefore, made to suffer. Where can she find a responsible husband who could in truth be called the head of the house: one who would shoulder the financial burdens and responsibilities of the family and expand her intellectual gifts? We have frankly outlined the situation and hope that our male readers, especially the younger ones, will see the far-reaching effects of their attitude toward marriage and wives and so act as to prevent *g* continuation of the exist-

The Great Illusion By EDGAR M. GREY
White Man Refuses to Admit That There Is an Educated Negro
AN ILLUSION, in the English language, is any form of deception mental, physical, psychological. It usually grows out of one of two things: (a) Defective perceptive organs, or, (b) lack of sufficient information. Most of the current ideas held by the great masses of mankind are illusions. But it is possible for those who take upon themselves the garband authority of leadership to be victims of the great jester of all times, illusion.
There appeared in The New York World on Sunday, July 17, under the pen of Henry L. Meckenex, in his column, "Hiring Hall," what was supposed to be an estimation of the main features of Negro progress and development recorded since the Civil War, and some hints of the current phases. This supposed estimation fell easily under two main divisions—social and educational. Under the social division of this appraisal he effected three main divisions—presents three main points—literary, musical and commercial.
I. who have followed the works of Mr. Meckenex for the past fifteen years while he built up a reputation for literary criticism and sociological heresy, usually find myself in almost total agreement with this modern iconoclast.
In this, his latest effort on the Negro, however, I disagree with his literary attack. With this preliminary remark, and the following quotation from the great Thomas Henry Huxley, we shall attempt to put into the records certain sensations which we consider to be facts, and which may present a contrary view to that of the great Mencken. "There is no alleviation, to the suffering of mankind except the city of Rome and indeed, and its resource facing of the world as it is when the griment of make-believe with which plous hands have hidden its uglier features has been stripped off."
Since Mr. Mencken is a member of the Jewish race, there are certain facts in the life of the American Negro who are so intimately similar to certain experiences of his own race that he would naturally seek to estimate those aspects of his own terms of the life problems of his own people, notwithstanding the preachments of the gentleman to the effect that he is not interested in the problems and blah, as he calls it, of the Jewish people. One of these problems of the Negro, which is so similar to the problems which face the world of Jewry, is once more the masters of the house—the Universal Gentile Policy.
The first error which Mr. Menkonk makes is that which he expresses by attempting to rest his hope for the future social security of the Negro race in America upon his acceptance by certain of the liberals in the City of New York or by certain of the actors of Hebrew blood was denied membership in one of the famous country clubs in this state, recently, is evidence that even in the case of the all-powerful Jew there are restrictions and acceptances.
And, if we suppose for the sake of argument that New York would do more for the Negro socially than it would for the Jew, we are unable to see how the reception of a few "educated Negroes" in the City of New York would affect the social status of the educated and socially "presentable" of the totality of the educated Negro throughout the land or moronia. And If Mr. Mencken wishes in his mind to father the thought that his Arn-American pets will survive in the social estimation of the New York white liberals, we shall find no fault with his effusion on this point.

ing conditions and exhibit those sterling qualities of real manhood that go to make a progressive race and a powerful nation.
We do, however, wish to remind Mr. Mencken that when he says that "the acceptance of the educated Negro socially removes his last grounds for complaint against his fate in the Republic and leaves him open to the same criteria of judgment that apply to everyone else" he is more hopelessly naive than we had had reasons to suspect. It
Edgar M. Grey would appear that never in the history of the struggles of the Negro educated group did any of the warriors fight for any different criteria as bases for the judgment either of themselves or their work.
What they have attempted to achieve was not judgment by different criteria or bases of judgment, but just the opposite—that they be judged by the identical criteria and then be given the exact opportunities for service and rewards as would be tendered a white man after he met the universal criteria and judgment.
But the question still presents the problem similar to the one of the educated Negro, for the reason that he has not refused to recognize the phenomenon of an educated Negro. He, like the farmer at the fair, declares that "there isn't no such animal."
Now, however, with Mr. Menken's assurance that the futuro shall be different for the educated Negro we look forward to a day of real joy for the educated Negro. We add, however, the unqualified public of Mr. Menken's optimism; we are sure that neither the moral attitude of Mr. Mencken or the liberals of New York is typical of the general attitude toward the educated Negro in the Republic. And unless Mr. Menken is spooling, we dare to assert that he knows better, but fails to resist it, but fails to resist the temptation to put one under the skin of the high-brows. When Mr. Menken states that the Negroes' opportunities have been precisely equal for years past to those of the white man he equals the intellectual savagery of the poor Irishman in the crucifixion of Christ with the first bow he meets after mass.
Mr. Mencken knows that the Negro's attempt in the musical world could not be supported by his own people. Since the white Americans who control the publishing houses, like every other American, are interested only in certain forms of jazz composition from the musical pen of the Negro, there is not much encouragement or enthusiasm for first-class musical effort.
And if the Negro, in the field of music which has been conceded to him, has failed to equal the white imitator, we would remind Mr. Mencken that evidence enough exists to prove that many of the jazz bits of the past ten or more years have been conveniently purloined from the hands of indigent foreign Negro composers. And besides that would like to say to Mr. Mencken that the most successful musical writers in the large cities of the United States are of Jewish blood; and that the white Gentile youth of the land who are musically inclined show just as banale a record in this line as does the Negro. Consequently, Mr. Mencken, if the Negro has been outdone by his imitators the financial consideration was the entire for this work; and the latter for genius. And even in the largest public publishing houses of the large cities the Negro is employed as the guiding hand in arranging and criticizing the raw
Some of us never know what it is to submerge our feeling of being colored in the ocean of American idealism.
Let a mule evolute a thousand years—a Man o' War may be the outcome.
Can You Tell?
1. When was the first colored Young Men's Christian Associa-
and unfinished material which brought into the various publishers, and brought by them for more "songs" and passed over to the Negro agger for his finishing touches.
As regards the Negro poets, Mr. Mencken unfortunate. He tells us that a. of these put together are not worth a dozen of the "Spoon River Anthology" by Edgar Lee Masters. We are sorry that the white man receives his education of the Negro and his achile matters by the wetnure theory. We are firmly of the opinion that this is a poor way to receive education of any desirable soil; we know from past experience that it we would recommend Mr. Mencken to study the back files of the Negro press if he desires to meet the poetical rems of the Negro.
We believe that Lucien B. Walkins, who passed away by two years ago, was a better poet than Edgar Lee Masters; we must that he achieved all of the whichical elements of the verse which marked the Victorian and mankind were positive that if Mr. Mencken were to take the trouble to peruse the works of this young poet, who, like Keats, died without coming into his own, that he would agree that he at least was the poetic equal of Edgar Lee Masters. His works were oubled in 1820 to 1922 through the interest of one of the editors, Hubert H. Harrison.
We hate to be as dogmatic as Mr. Mencken has been, but we are positive that Mr. Mencken did not take into consideration the fact that Shakespeare came after more than 1,000 years of Anglo-Saxon culture, and that between "Browolf" and "Blades of Grass" more than fifty generations had elapsed. We should hold of a good copy of Dunbar in English, and we are certain, knowing him as we do, that he would change his opinion.
Mr. Mencken declares that in prose the Negro has been just as empty. Well, we have not sufficient space to argue cases with him; but we submit "Souls of Black Folk," the "African Heart," and "Behind the Cedars," "The American Negro," "The Marrow of Tradition," "The Colonel's Dream" and others too numerous to mention. The tragedy of the situation is that the American Negro has but the one language in which to express his thoughts, and that has been required to accept the literature of the English language as his own and has failed to push and praise Negro literature.
As to the fact that the leadership of the proachers among Negroes has failed, we would remind Mr. Mencken that the leadership of all proachers has failed—white, black, yellow and brown; but among all people, the leadership still persists. The white race in the United States still gathers from the leadership of the Methodist preachers, who were able to place the rum law upon the national statutes; John Reach Straton, Cardinal Hayes, Billy Sandy, Bolttra and Canon Chase have more power among white people than have such as Mencken and other interracial preachers as members of this leadership that "Hat Rack" was chased out of Boston.
If Mr. Mencken would be good enough as to read during the vacation period which he takes annually a fow back copies of the Negro press we are certain that he would gain some faint idea of the vastness of the new Negro literature and that: when he next attempted his Sunday effusions on the Negro he would be better informed. Mr. Mencken business, Mr. Mencken showed a most woeful ignorance. Now Mr. Mencken suffers from the great illusion that he is acquainted enough with the Negro to discuss him in music, art, literature and business. He is not!

J. E. K. Aggrey
IN THE DEATH of Professor James B. Aggrey in Harlem Hospital Saturday, opening, following only a few hours, will be mourned on two occasions—Africa, which gave him birth and America, where he acquired a higher education and spent twenty-five years of his life. His educational attainments should be taken as an example of the inherent ability of native African to grapple successively with the standards in education set for ordics who prate on their superior degree, doctor of philosophy, awarded to him by one of America's greatest institutions.
PROFESSOR AGGREY first came to the United States in 1898, becoming first a student, and several years later a professor at Livingstone College, North Carolina, an institution always near to his heart. But having acquired an education, having received a doctor's degree, he spurned lucrative careers to remain in the United States and returned to his native land to enlighten his own people. He came back last month to visit his wife.
Africa can ill afford to lose a man, such sterling qualities who so vigorously gave up everything to serve the cause.
THE DEATH of Professor James E. K. Aggrey in Harlem Hospital Saturday evening, following only a few hours of illness, will be mourned on two continents—Africa, which gave him birth, and America, where he acquired his higher education and spent over twenty-five years of his life. His educational attainments should be taken as an example of the inherent ability of the native African to grapple successfully with the standards in education set by Nordics who prate on their superiority. The degree, doctor of philosophy, was awarded to him by one of America's greatest institutions.
PROFESSOR AGGREY first came to the United States in 1898, becoming first a student, and several years later a professor at Livingstone College in North Carolina, an institution always dear to his heart. But having acquired an education, having received a doctor's degree, he spurned lucrative offers to remain in the United States and returned to his native land to enlighten his own people. He came back last month to visit his wife. Africa can ill afford to lose a man of such sterling qualities who so willingly gave up everything to serve her cause.
Fisk's New Dean
THAT PRESIDENT Thomas Elsa Joan Fisk University has faith in ability of the Negro race to help so own educational problems' in
THAT PRESIDENT Thomas Elsa Jones of Fisk University has faith in the ability of the Negro race to help solve its own educational problems in the South, and that he has been given the free rein he demanded when he accepted the presidency of Fisk, is evidenced by the announcement that Professor Ambrose Caliver, a Negro educator thirty-three years of age, has been appointed dean, thus becoming the first Negro to serve Fisk in this capacity, which is ranked second only to that of president.
FROM A STANDPOINT of scholarship and practical knowledge of the Negro's educational needs, Professor Caliver is apparently unusually fitted for his new duties. His elementary and high school education was received in Bramwell, West Virginia, in which state he was born, and Knoxville. Tenn. He received his bachelor of arts degree from Knoxville College, his master's degree from the University of Wisconsin, and has supplemented this by taking summer courses in education and college administration at Columbia and Harvard universities toward his doctor's degree.
HIS EXPERIENCES at Tuskegee Institute, Rockwell, Tenn., where he was a high school principal, and later assistant principal of the Douglas High
EDITORIAL PAGE
School in El Paso, Texas, should give him a broad knowledge of the types, backgrounds and requirements of the students with whom he must deal in his new position. He came to Fisk University in 1917 as instructor and assistant professor of manual arts—as humble a start as a man can make in so noted an institution — later conducting several courses in education and vocational guidance.
DURING the latter part of the administration of President Fayette Avery McKenzie and during the interim period following the latter's resignation, he served as assistant dean and later as dean while that incumbent was discharging the duties of the president.
THE RECOMMENDATION of Dr. Jones that Professor Caliver be given the place is sufficient proof of his fitness and adaptability, and both should be given the unmeasured co-operation of the trustees, members of the faculty, alumni and students. It should be noted, also, that his selection was not made as the result of demands that a Negro be given the place, a circumstance which leads us to believe that Professor Caliver is the most available man for the place regardless of race.
"Dull" Seasons Now Unnecessary
ONCE an ingenious merchant discovered that the logical time to advertise was when business was slow and in the periodic dull seasons of the year. Ridiculous as it may seem, before that discovery the average business man slowed down in his advertising when business slowed down. He generally ended up the dull seasons with a quarterly sale, but as far as his newspaper advertising was concerned there was no advertising when there was no business.
THE MODERN business man holds a different conception of the purposes and uses of newspaper advertising. When business is not up to his satisfaction he brings it up through increased advertising, so that now the merchant, schooled in productive advertising, knows no dull seasons nor diminished business.
THERE are a few phases of business which have always been known to all business men. Among these are the alternating busy and dull periods of the year, month, week and day. A systematic, effective and economic plan of advertising had to be constructed upon a full knowledge of this business cycle. Business has ever come without coaxing before Christmas, at Easter time and in the fall. Extensive advertising has been found to be the only remedy for the business depression epidemic between these three rush periods. People have a habit of confining their shopping to the last of the month, the last three days of the week and the later shopping hours of the day.
FROM EXPERIENCE merchants have learned that newspaper advertising has successfully eliminated the rush periods and spread the volume of business more evenly over the day, week, month and year. It has prevented congestion, simplified salesmanship and merchandising and increased business.

The Negro in the Industrial South
The Negro in the Industrial South
By E. FRAKLIN FRAZIER in The Nation
THE sentiment in this country which has favored industrial education for the Negro has been built upon a rationalization of prejudice rather than an intelligent appraisal of the facts of Negro life. In the South industrial education was regarded as the kind of education which would maintain the proper relationship between the two races. The highly industrialized North looked upon industrial education as the proper education for the masses. It has turned out that the majority of the graduates of the so-called industrial schools of the South have gone out as teachers and community leaders; while the wealthy industrialists of the North, who have given generously to the industrial education of the Negro in the South, have seldom given him an opportunity to use his education in their plants.
that in certain kinds of service custom orders a tip and employers reduce wages by the amount of the tips.
"The Pullman Porters' Brotherhood has gone at the problem from the tipped end. According to their statement, their average wage is $2.50 for four hundred hours of work a month, and their tips average $5 a month. They have gone before the Federal Mediation Board with a program that calls for a fatter pay envelope, shorter hours, and no tips,
Therefore it is necessary to make clear the fact that industrial education—so far as the Negro is concerned—was never designed to fit him into the industrial organization of the North or the growing industrialism of the South. It should also be made clear that the name, industrial, as applied to most Negro schools in the South is used chiefly to place Southern prejudice. Industrial schools are elementary schools in an obstruction to real teaching; and North Carolina, with its enlightened attitude towards Negro education, is abolishing most of the farce. On the other hand, the "industrial departments" in Negro schools are maintained often as exhibits for white visitors. In order to insure appropriations. A further limitation upon the specific social function of these schools is the fact that, while they give some training in a few trades, they are not equipped except in the three cases to instruct, in the technical processes which production. In many cases time is no longer in learning trades which is more easily made by hand articles which are now manufactured more economically and more efficiently by machines. The most effective part of the industrial program serving a specific economic function has been the instruction in scientific methods of agriculture. This has been due not so much to the fact that the graduates of the schools have become farmers as that they, as farm demonstrators and in other capacities, community members, have become teachers for the masses of Negro farmers. But industrial education so far has not been especially designed, as it is generally supposed, to fit the Negro into the industrial organization of the South.
The South is undergoing today an unprecedented industrial development. Not only is the development evidenced by the movement south of the textile industry of New England; but capital is finding a rich harvest wherever you travel. While the South offers many natural advantages, its strongest inducement is an unlimited supply of labor. In fact, the South advertises to the country her vast reserves of docile native white labor that has not been contaminated by forcimator agitators. It is well known how this lack of organization has made it easy for capital to exploit labor. Along with the urbanization of the white population has gone the cityward movement of the Negroes. Although this latter phenomenon has been less dramatic in the South than in the North, it is a fact of important consequences for the important aspects of the interracial problem is the relationship between white and black labor in the industrial South.
The caste system of race relations affects the labor situation as it affects all race relations. The white workers have swallowed the tradition of the vassal slave-holding aristocracy. This has made them insecure in their dominance subservient to the will of organized wealth. In the present industrial development, where white labor has become organized, it is attempting to secure itself against the exploitation of capital and maintain the subordination of Negro labor. The antipathy of white labor from before the Civil War. There was first the hatred of the slave on the part of the poor white class, from whom the industrial laboring force comes. Then there was the opposition of white workmen to both slave and free Negro artisans, which was complains in complaints against the industrial education of freedmen. The abolitionists, and the composition of Negro workers.
Historically, the Negro has been on the side of capital. In the case he has made, the philanthropy thru the philanthropy of Northern capitalists. Even in
"Tipping itself is an offense to the code of American business ethics. It belongs in countries where begging is a recognized life calling, where petty bribery of government employees is a recognized channel of revenue, where class distinctions are sharp and oppressive, and where cultivated serrility is an art. But the custom is rooted in the United States, and it will grow and thrive until the great army of the tipped rises in rebellion and creates and demands a right to straight pay."
the South the white employing class, which has become accommodated to the mass of Negroes in domestic service, has not shown the antagonism of the poor whites. It is also true that the culture of the wealthy has restrained them from the barbarous acts of the lower working classes.
But there are those who see that Negro labor ultimately must seek co-operation with white labor. These same observers have criticised the tactics of the interracial movement because it has sought the co-operation of white employers and white and black intellectuals rather than the workers of the two races in the Atlantic Chamber of Commerce in securing an injunction restraining the City Council from enforcing the bill restricting Negro barbers to colored patronage might have been due partly to sentimental attachment to the Negro barber, but it was primarily aimed at the growing power of organized labor, which was responsible for the passage of the bill. The action of the Chamber of Commerce cannot be taken as an indication that the economic improvement of the Negro depends upon an alignment with capital in the South.
Some leaders of organized labor in the South endeavor to place the blame for the antagonism of white labor on the Negroes. Their chief argument is that the Negro workers are hostile to white labor because their leaders, especially the ministers,

PRESTON NEWS SERVICE
GOVERNOR ALBERT C. RITCHIE of Maryland has promised to "proclaim and insist that religion shall not be a factor in determining any man's right to hold office, whether it is the highest or lowest in the land," a statement which, of course, obviously grows out of the political courtesies which the Maryland Governor desires to pay to his party colleague, Governor A Smith of New York, who is a Catholic and who is a Catholic advocate for the Catholic votes which the great State of Maryland could and would give to him were he running upon the Presidential hustings.
The Maryland Governor's statement came along months after the circulation, by his campaign managers, of a pernicious pamphlet which was an open insult to every Negro of Maryland (and America, too), whom the Governor's political supporters promised loot. Hopperly out Maryland offices, following the Governor's last success at the polls.
The proclamation upon religious tolerance plainly showed that, where race was an issue, it should receive no consideration upon a parity with religion and politics; and it showed further that Mr. Ritchie had suffered no pain nor repentance a revolting conscience to the heaped upon Negro voters of Maryland during the lost elections.
We are mentioning these episodes at this time for a number of reasons, and particularly because (1) a portion of the Negro public has been most unkind in its estimate of Bishop A. J. Carey's appointment to the Municipal Civil Service of Chicago; (2) the alleged endorsement of Arkansas Negroes of Governor Smith for President, and (3) the general treatment accorded Negroes in the Catholic parishes of Louisiana and in the State of Maryland.
Do you ask what relation these matters have? They have the relation of religion, race and politics with race over and union vital issue, but one which is assigned to the trailler of religion and politics, regardless of kind and complex.
Bishop Carey is to be exalted for putting both religion and race into Chicago city politics. The Arkansas group is to be admished to ask themselves whether, under Smith as President, their political and racial treatment would be any better than that accorded their brethren in the Louisiana parishes and land when President Wilson was land and Norgnes of Maryland, many of whom are Catholics, might ask Governor Ritchie if their religious virtues are not strong enough to estop electoral insults, particularly in view of the Governor's latest religious proclamation. As for us, we would like to see more religion in politics as a sort of purge to selfishness and greed. Were such a permission really to take place in at least, our Kinship would only be strengthened if equity in the street of Justice, peace rather than strife, the ballot in the place of grandfather clauses, and God instead of the devil.
who wield the greatest influence, are constantly, the recipients of doles from the white employers. This is undoubtedly true to some extent; but it is also true with the white religious leaders who accept donations from wealthy men. White labor leaders, as a rule, have not approached the Negro laboring group as fellow workers in attempting to organize them; but have attempted to organize them to be used for their own advancement. Where white labor has honestly undertaken the organization of Negro labor and has been loyal to the black worker, the response has equalled their efforts. An example of honest co-operation is afforded by the following case: In a Southern city the white employers, in letting a large printing contract, attempted to force white unionists to accept ten cents less per hour than the union scale by the employer; they could black workers. When the white unionists came up yield, they used the same rule to force, the black unionists to accept wares beneath the union scale. The black workers proved equally good unionists and the work was dis-
WHY keep Marcus Garvey in prison? No purpose of any sort is to be served by his continued incarceration; therefore, there is no real justice in holding him. In fact, if Garvey had been sentenced for five months, instead of for five years, and then deported, or if it had been legally possible simply to deport him, without any prison term, the ends of useful justice would have been as well met.
Marcus Garvey was no more of a criminal than a half-dozen or more of those who were associated with him in the Black Star Line business project. His worst enemies, if they are honest, must admit that.
But we can say even more than that: Garvey was not at heart a criminal. It is our belief that he did not set out to steal or cheat. But, knowingly or unknowingly, he ran afoul of technical law by selling, or permitting to be sold, stock in a concern that was bankrupt. Why? Not because he expected to cheat anybody out of just so much money, but because Garvey is a visionary, a bold dreamer, who thought he could resuscitate a corporation which was dead, but, in his bold confidence, not quite dead, but just "kayoed" for the time being.
The writer has no doubt that Garvey believed, foolishly, of course, that by taking in more money he would rescue the enterprise and save everything. But that is a crime—like accepting deposits in a bank when you know that the institution is already insolvent.
And, although it may seem to be a charge against the intelligence of the rather brainful Garvey, still, it is likely true that, as a man from the West Indies, he understood very little about the technicalities of American law on that subject. Suppose we should get an honest answer to the following question. How many supposedly intelligent Americans could answer "Yes" if we asked them:
"Did YOU know that just what Garvey did was a penitentiary offense before you learned that he was being prosecuted for it?" There are some native-born Americans who could not answer in the affirmative.
Now, some of the sharks working for Garvey's organization and giving Garvey "advice" knew that it was a violation of law to sell more stock under the condition, and those fellows are all out of jail and have not even been put in.
Garvey, who helped to jail himself by being braver than the others, but less shrewd than the others, during the trial, can now be released, not only without any social hurt, but even with social justice.
African Natives Fought European Invaders
"Not a whit more spirited and determined was the North American Indian in keeping out the European invader than was the Negro in protecting his native land." So says the famous Negro author and journalist, A. Rogers, in an interesting article in The Zulu Revolt. In the August number of The Messenger.
"If the Indian can point to his King Philipses," continues the writer, "his Geronimos and Sitting Bulls, the Negro can point to his Coteeyawes, Lobengelnas and Mosiklazes. As Sitting Dill wiped out the entire American expedition sent against him. So Cetewyo killed the entire British force sent against him in Isandhwana.
In West Africa, Samoré, called the Napoleon of the Sudan, resisted the French, as in Asanti, Kofi Karakard did the English; or in Abusyssia, Menelik did the Italian."
vided between the two races at the regular union scale.
But generally we do not find such intelligent and far-sighted cooperation between the two groups. The writer knows of a case in which a white union official obtained the charter of a colored local which was in financial trouble and chartered a white local. Although the colored local was restored to good standing, the white local has secured a monopoly on the work in that field. The action of white workers in Memphis in insisting that bricklaying be taken out of the Negro industrial high school shows that even industrial education for the Negro is not favored when it gives the Negro economic equality with the white worker.
The white employers have not failed to keep white and black workers apart by keeping alive in the former the idea of white supremacy. As the industrialization of the South grows, the white working class will become class-conscious and resist through organization the present unchallenged supremacy of capital. Faced with this situation, white workers will turn to the black worker, as it has always turned in such situations to an unorganized group of workers. The unions will, therefore, be forced to recognize the Negro as they have done—in self-defense—in the North. In the meanwhile, the masses of Negroes who are forced into mental and domestic services will be held down to the poverty level by capital and labor. Even the superstructure of Negro business, which is being hailed as a significant economic development, will rest upon an accession to the industrial class. Neither the sentimental philanthropy, which still lingers in the South, nor the growth of scientific social work can eradicate the effects of this economic subordination of the Negro.
