Muse, nationally famous actor and producer, known throughout the theatrical profession as a bad paymaster, deemed it advisable late Sunday night to call the police reserves from the West 135th street to protect himself from possible bodily harm when the performers, who were closing their week at the Lafayette Theatre, 131st street and Seventh avenue, demanded their pay. Thursday nights are - "draw" nights in every theatre that closes its week on Sundays, but last week no money was forthcoming for the actors. "Draw" night only drew a promise from Muse to pay the following night. The night came and Muse paid them with an excuse. The company then refused to go on for the Friday midnight show until they were given some money. They got it. When Sunday night came and the show prepared to leave for Washington, D. C., the financial question again arose, and Muse was threatened, it is said, with violence unless he "played fair."

William Holden, janitor, found the child. Overcome by mother love, she sought her child at the West 135th street station, where she was arrested by Detective Moore. Because of her weakened condition for want of food, Mrs. Johnson, a lone one-year widow, was deprived of the custody of her other child, Louise, 2, who is now in the care of the Children's Society.

DeBruhl, letter carrier at the Williamsbridge station, 3544 Webster avenue, the Broux, last Monday. Young Prippitella attempted to climb a New York Central Railroad signal tower at 211th street and Webster avenue. DeBruhl was sweeping water out of the cellar of the two-story house in which he lives when he saw a flash from the high tension wires, and his wife called him to try and save a boy who was "struck." DeBruhl called his friend, Fireman Wesley Williams, 3542 Webster avenue, attached to Engine 58, to get a rope, and the two men lowered the boy from the platform, where he had struck his right leg against the wires. His right leg and thigh were badly burned. Prippitella, clad in a bathing suit, made the climb on a "dare" from playmates. He was taken to Fordham Hospital.

He said that Kaskouras came toward him with a revolver in his hand and that he (Osman) grabbed the restaurant man's hand and a fight ensued. He said he hit the man's hand and as the pistol dropped to the floor he picked it up to protect himself from injury and fired one shot. 300 TAKE PART IN BOSTON RACE CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 9, James J.

An alleged police "shakedown" is said to have occurred when Patrolman Joseph Fournier, 26, 48 Columbia Heights, and attached to the Classon avenue station, Brooklyn, and Patrolman Joseph Curtrin, 26, 51 West 111th street, and attached to the West 135th street station, entered the home of Joseph McCauley, 99 Ashland place, Brooklyn, about 3 a.m. Thursday, and are said to have demanded him to pay them $100 protection money to avoid arrest for conducting an alleged gambling house. Both patrolmen were suspended by Deputy Police Commissioner Hoyt Friday, charged with assault and robbery, in that they, accompanied by two other men, robbed McCauley of $60 at the point of a revover. The two alleged accomplices were Rudolph Esselser, 23, 53 Tillary street, and John Dominquez, 23, 304 Bridge street, both Porto Ricans. When the men demanded the money, McCaulley said, he told them that he only had $60, and they insisted upon payment of $100. They then robbed him of the $80, he said, and the patrolmen fled, leaving the Porto Ricans there to "hold the bag." The other two men escaped, however, and McCaulley ran out and summoned Patrolman McCaulley of the Poplar street station. With the assistance of Patrolman Neubauer, also of the Poplar street station, the Porto Ricans were captured after a chase to Tillary street and Flatbush avenue. When arraigned before Liteutenant McFarland, they are said to have confessed to being a party to the alleged hold-up and squealed on the two patrolmen, who were then placed under arrest by McCauley and Neubaner. The "shakedown quartette" was arraigned in Gates Avenue Court Sunday morning. Actress Loses Two Years' Drug Fight Tells Court She Formed Habit After Physician Prescribed Them. Losing a two-year fight against drugs, Viola Johnson, 26, international entertainer, 286 West 147th street, related the story to Magistrate Ewald, before whom she was arraigned in Heights Court Friday on a charge of possession of narcotics. She pleaded guilty and was held without bail for Special Sessions. Her apartment was raided by Detective Schmucker of the Narcotic Squad and several packages of heroin are said to have been found in a bureau drawer in her bedroom. Clothing valued at $10,000 was said to have been found in her apartment, which she explained was purchased in Paris and Berlin. She showed bills to prove it. Miss Johnson related that about two years ago a physician had prescribed drugs for her in toxic form to soothe her nerves. She soon developed a craving for them, she said, and finally could not do without them. Then her health began to fail. Hospital "cures" and all other methods were vainly resorted to. she lamented. As an entertainer Miss Johnson has ranked among the foremost of them, having performed at private functions on Park avenue. In addition to her appearances abroad, which included Moscow, London, Berlin, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro and other important cities of the world. Hampton Student Drowns George Dyke, 18, of Hampton, Va., crowned Saturday afternoon, August 6 at 3:30 o'clock while rowing on Saratoga Lake. Mechanicville, N. Y.

MAGISTRATE EWALD FREES DEFENDANTS IN RECORD "POLICY" RAID Sensational Disclosures at Hearing in Washington Heights Court Fail to Materialize. "I dismiss this case." In these words Magistrate Ewald freed Emma Jones. 36, said to be from Buffalo, N. Y., and Samuel Grey. 34. 257 West 142d street, both of whom were tried in Heights Court Thursday, charged with possession of policy slips and thought by the police to be "numbers bankers." following a raid on an apartment at No. 507 Lenox avenue, near 135th street, where an adding and a money-counting machine, liquor and nearly $3,000 cash were seized by the police Friday night, July 29. An additional charge of violation of the Volstead Act remained against Mrs. Jones, and ball at $500 was continued in Federal Court where she was arraigned the same day. She waived examination and her case is pending. On the "numbers" charge ball had been set at $1,000 for each defendant. The sensational disclosures expected at Thursday's trial failed utterly of appearance. Casper Holstein, said to be the owner of the apartment, was a spectator during the trial, but he in no way was brought into the case. Patrolman Baccagliini of the Sixth division testified that, with the assistance of Patrolman Casson and others of the Sixth division, he raided the apartment on information received that policy playing was being conducted there. He knocked on the door, he testified, and, finding it open, led his men inside. Witnesses, however, declared the door was broken open. Baccagliini, in answer to Magistrate Ewald's question, admitted that he had no search warrant. Continuing his testimony, he said he found no evidence upon entering. He picked up a bunch of keys and with these he unlocked a trunk in the front room of the apartment, and found therein hundreds of policy slips, liquor and nearly $3,000 in cash. Richard L. Cunningham, 1132 St. Nicholas avenue, defense counsel, moved that the defendants be discharged. The motion was denied and the defendants were called to testify. Mrs. Jones testified that she had just come down from Buffalo, the day of the raid, to see a Miss Davis, whom she said is secretary of the Virgin Islands Society, and denied being a tenant of the apartment. Grey told the Magistrate that he had just gotten off the boat from the Virgin Islands and had delivered to Miss Davis. $3,000 to be credited to the funds of the Virgin Island Society. This is the cash which the police found, it is said. Mrs. Jones and Grey both denied having had any policy slips. "Then you found no evidence in possession of these defendants?" asked the magistrate. Baccagliini replied in the negative. The district attorney then reminded the district SEE ANNOUNCEMENT ON FIRST PAGE, SECOND SECTION 22 FIVE CENTS PER COPY PAGES EVERYWHERE Complete in 3 Sections TR COOK ON SHE KINGSWAY TO ESCAPE Four Jurors Selected Whee —“Unwritten L jected i Earl L.

Battice, alleged murderer-cook of the schooner Kingsway, went on trial for his life Monday afternoon before Judge Harry B. Anderson in Federal Court. The dull routine of selecting a jury to try this man, who is said to have slashed his wife's throat as the ship rolled off the Gold Coast, because she accepted the attentions of a German engineer, was somewhat relieved by the pertinent questions put to the jurors by U. S. Attorney Kenneth L. Simpson. Son of Jas. T. Carter Dies in Hospital Here James T. Carter, Jr., son of the grand treasurer of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., of Richmond, Va., died Saturday morning at the Presbyterian Hospital, following an operation. Accompanied by the parents, the body was shipped to Richmond Sunday night, and the funeral was held at the First Baptist Church in that city Tuesday afternoon. Young Carter, who was 22 and an only child, was a law student at Ann Arbor. He came to New York recently to obtain summer employment and it became necessary to undergo a physical examination in order to qualify for the place. This examination showed the young man to be suffering from a slight aliment that needed a minor operation. Accordingly he entered the hospital Friday, apparently in fine condition, to submit to the operation. It is said, however, that he never rallied from the effects of the other. Attorney Carter was hastily summoned while conducting a case in the Richmond courts. Robert Grant, 255 West 127th street, awaiting trial for forgery, tried to commit suicide in the Tombs Prison Thursday. Grant suspended himself from the bars of his cell by his belt, which was looped about his neck. A note found in Grant's cell afterward asked the authorities to notify J. I. Grant, 116 First street, Darlington, S. C. of his death. A special guard was assigned to watch Grant in his cell. HARLEMITE HELD FOR BRONX ROBBERY Traced through a good watch which had been pawned, Benjamin Benton, 27, 201 West 136th street, was held in $2,000 bail for the Grand Jury by Magistrate Vitale last Wednesday in West Farms Court. He is accused of burglarizing the home of Mrs. Fayette Stumpm, white, $143 Country Club road, on July 1. magistrate of the liquor charge against Mrs. Jones. "That goes to the Federal Court." said Magistrate Ewald, "I dismiss this case. Defendants discharged." The $2,000, which was in the hands of the property clerk at police headquarters, will be returned to the secretary of the Virgin Island's Society, it said. SECTION ONE These questions chiefly conferred the jury candidates' prejudices against the Negro or against wearing men. They were also questioned closely concerning their opinions or convictions regarding the "unwritten law," and upon the question of capital punishment. Of the fourteen candidates called, only four had been accepted when court adjourned. One candidate considered a wife's unfailfulness sufficient justification for killing her. He was rejected. Battice is the center of enough fiction material to supply volumes of thrilling narrative concerning the Kingsway's eight months' sea jaunt, on which murder, mystery, mutiny, poison, jealousy, hunger and death stalked atop the sea foam. Battice was clean shaven and closely cropped and viewed the proceedings calmly but with a grave mien. If he is condemned to die, the old gallows in the tower of the post office building may be used for the first time in eighty years. As an alternative, U. S. Attorney Simpson said, a gallows may be erected on Governors Island or Bedloe's Island. Caruthers Ewing, 111 Broadway, and Prather S. McDonald, 29 Broadway, were selected by Judge Anderson as defense counsel for Battie, and are to serve without compensation, unless some philanthropic organization comes forward with a gift. Both attorneys are from the bar of Tennessee, and Judge Anderson halls from Memphis. U. S. Attorneys Simpson and George J. Mintzer will represent the government, and U. S. Attorney Tuttle will open for the prosecution as soon as the jury is selected. CORRECTIONS Major Hatch, 81 Race street, Trenton, N. J., who says he is the husband of the deceased Anna Hatch, 40, who was shot to death in the apartment of Walter Herbert, 45, at 59 West 133th street, in the early morning of July 18, desires to correct some of the statements contained in the story of the tragedy appearing in the July 20 issue of the Amsterdam News. He declares that Anna Hatch aside from being his wife, was not the common-law wife of Herbert, who is reported to have met death by suicide after he is said to have shot Mrs. Hatch. Hatch further states that Herbert was his brother, and that Mrs. Hatch, who lived in the adjoining apartment, had been asked by her husband to look after her brother-in-law during his illness. "Give Ann the apartment next door for all she has done for me," is given as the reading of the note found after the tragedy. Hatch does not give any motive for the tragedy, however. WRANGLES FEATURE LAWYERS' MEET Attempt to Sponsor Candidate for Municipal Court Bench Fails Monkey Wrench Thrown in Works When Cornelius MacDougald Charged West Indians Sought Control. Childish bickering characterized the meeting of the Harlem Lawyers' Association Thursday night in Room 213, at 200 West 135th street, the object of which was "the endorsement of a Negro for nomination by one or other of the major political parties, to run for office of justice of the Municipal court of New York City. Attorney Arthur A. Madison was chairman and Demerald Williams, secretary. There were less than fifty present at the meeting, although notices had been sent to the sixty-two lawyers in the city. 1 w 0 "The meeting, which was to have considered "ways and means for securing a maximum registration of Negroes at the forthcoming elections," turned "out to be instead a consideration of personal prejudices. Attorney Cornellus W. MacDougald threw the monkey wrench into the machinery when he sought to show that the selection of a candidate was being controlled by "the West Indian element," and that underhanded methods had been resorted to. At a previous meeting, Saturday, July 30, twenty-one members—including seven foreign-born—of the Harlem Lawyers' Association, selected James S. Watson, Democrat, assistant corporation counsel, as a candidate for the judgeship. Attorney MacDougald was not present at this meeting, but his name, as a possible choice, was placed before them. Attorneys Pope B. Billups, James P. Ifil and Attorney Watson were chosen as candidates, the latter receiving the final selection. Thursday's meeting was called to either endorse Attorney Watson or to name another candidate. The Association's purpose, it is reported, is to arouse sentiment favorable to the nomination of a Negro judge regardless of his political party. Attorney MacDougald declared that to place a "party man" before an opposite constituency would be insane. "A Republican will not support a Democrat, and vice versa," he said in substance. The chairman sought to check his lengthy arguments, thus delaying the business of the meeting, and Attorney MacDougald was then voted into the chair to replace Attorney Madison. Edgar M. Grey moved to resolve those present into a temporary body, to select a candidate. The motion was carried. When Attorney Hubert T. Delaney took the floor in an effort to unravel the tangled skein of misunderstanding. Mac Dougald repeatedly called him "out of order," and demanded him to sit down. This falling, he asked the sergeant-at-arms to put him out, and threatened to summon the police. The situation grew very tense. Attorney MacDougald was later voted out of the chair and, upon the motion of Mr. Grey, those present were resolved into a permanent body to select a candidate. Dr. Charles A. Butler, president of the Citizens' Welfare Council of Harlem, was elected chairman, and Attorney Williams, secretary. After much ineffectual discussion concerning "party men" and public endorsement, Attorney Richard E. Carey suggested setting forth an independent candidate, and naming the new body "The Harlem Non-Partisan League." The majority were not ready for the question relative to an independent candidate, and more futile "party talk" consumed the hours until midnight, when the meeting adjourned just about where it started—practically nowhere.

Harry Edwards Heads Odd Fellows Twelfth Biennial Session Held at Staten Island. Harry Edwards, who for the past six years has been district grand master, State of New York of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, was re-elected to serve in that capacity for two years more at the twelfth biennial and thirty-fifth session of District Grand Lodge No. 2, held last week at Staten Island. The convention was held at Odd Fellows' Hall, 1589 Richmond Terrace, West Brighton, Staten Island. The session was rather tame and the parade, always a feature of the convention, was very poorly attended. Two tickets were in the field, that of Edwards' and another headed by Samuel A. Gibbs, of Brooklyn, J. J. Henry, who has been long considered the next in line for the grand mastership, also had a ticket in the field headed by himself. After the ballots were counted, it was found that Edwards received 30 votes; Gibbs 17, and Henry 7. Others on the Edwards' side elected were: Willis Smith of Auburn, deputy grand master; Handy Mosley, grand treasurer; Barrow of Brooklyn grand secretary; William Palmer, grand director. George V. Derham of Rochester, who was frequently mentioned as a possibility for the head of the order, went down to defeat for the office of deputy grand master, for which he ran, along with the rest of the Gibb's ticket. AGED HOME PROPOSITION LOST. The proposition to divide the money previously collected-in the interest of the Peter Ogden Aged House between the subordinate lodges and households and the Grand Lodge and Grand Household was probably lost through the Grand Household's refusing to ratify the proposition. The proposition to increase the per capita tax of each lodge from ten to twenty-five cents was accepted. Buffalo was selected as the place for the next district Grand Lodge session in 1929.

City Health Department, out of 268 contestants, 256 of whom were white. Genetieve H. McKinney of 499·Halsey street. Brooklyn, headed the list with a percentage of 88.57. This is one of the highest marks ever made in a similar civil service examination. Seven Negro nurses out of the twelve who tried passed, constituting 60 per cent, while but 55 white nurses out of the 256 who tried were successful, constituting only 7 per cent of their number to make the test. The other successful Negro nurses and their ratings are as follows: Alleen B. Cole, 84,45; Alice S. Thomas, 83,79; Edua B. Malone, 83,57; Clara M. Harris, 83,00; Lucy F. Shaw, 82,97; and Corinne A.

She has been in the city health service for the past three years, and is one of that body which renders free service in instructing the public in disease prevention and health promotion.

CHILD, 11, HAS BOSTON IN UPROAR Sets Fire to State House and Is Pounced Upon as Sacco Sympathizer Sets Fire to State House and Is Pounced Upon as Sacco Sympathizer Father Tells Court His Daughter Knew Absolutely Nothing of Famous Case—May Be Put Away. BOSTON, Aug. S.—At a time when railroad terminals, subway stations and government buildings were being guarded by extra detail of police as precaution against a possible attack by Sacco and Vanzetti sympathizers last Friday afternoon, Mary Ellen Harris, eleven-year-old girl, through a childish prank, threw the entire governmental machinery into furious excitement by setting fire to the State House. Passing the guards unobserved, the child, who lives at 186 Chambers street, and is the daughter of Russell D. Harris, colored, and Mrs. Harris, who is a white woman, entered the basement door on the Mt. Vernon street side. She picked up a paper case of matches and playfully lighted some packing cases in the basement area of the west wing of the State House. Akron Cautions Against Large Labor Influx The National Urban League through its Department of Industrial Relations has just released the following statement with reference to what appears to be a sudden, unwarranted migration to Akron. George L. Saunders, a State House watchman, while making his rounds, discovered Mary standing over the fire she had started. He promptly stamped out the blaze and seized the child. She was carried to the office of Fred H. Kimball, superintendent of buildings, on the first floor, where she refused to answer questions. The child was taken to the Joy street police station, where she was questioned by Capt. James McDevitt. She could give no reason for setting the fire, but said that she had just picked up a paper card of matches and felt a desire to light the materials. In Juvenile Court, where she was arraigned Saturday as a delinquent child. Mary was turned over to probation offices to await a suitable place to be found for her to be sent. Mr. Harris, the child's father, was asked if his daughter had any knowledge of the Sacco-Vanzetti case, but his answer was in the negative. He said the girl could not have known anything of it, as the matter was not discussed before her. It is believed by the authorities that the child is mentally unbalanced. She was taken out of school a year ago because of ill health. For a time she was confined in the City Hospital. There the doctors said there was nothing wrong mentally with the child, the father said. Mr. Harris says he was born on the high seas fifty years ago while his parents were travelling from Africa to Nova Scotia. He has lived in Boston thirty years and was a former employee of Young's Hotel. Mary is the youngest of four children. The place where the blaze was started is adjacent to the rooms where supplies for state departments are stored. There is a quantity of infamnable goods there, but the fire could not have reached these as there is a solid wall of granite between the room and the area. In the opinion of state officials, the fire would probably have burned itself out if it had not been discovered. Bard and Fleming Case Before Supreme Court (Washington News Service.) WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 8.—The death sentence imposed upon Nathan Bard and Bunyan Fleming in Kentucky for rape has been stayed by Justice Holmes until the Supreme Court can pass upon their petition for a review at its next term, beginning in October. The order of Justice Holmes announced by the clerk of the court was issued July 14, the day prior to the expiration of the stay of execution granted July 9 by Justice Brandles. Justice Holmes in granting the stay to the two men filed an opinion saying that it was granted because human lives were involved and that he thought it proper that the Supreme Court should have an opportunity to decide whether it would review the case. This trial of these men in Kentucky attracted wide attention and caused the editors of Louisville papers considerable trouble with a Kentucky judge because they had the courage to criticize the conduct of the trial.

Some of them are coming upon the invitation of relatives and friends who have lived in Akron; some have heard through various sources that the city is short of workers. Akron's industries are reported on a firm foundation, and are working a full-time schedule, but it is feared that if the intake of new workers does not cease Akron will be unable to take care of the numbers who are finding their way to the city. "George W. Thompson, executive secretary of the Association for Colored Community Work, has conferred with the Better Akron Federation, the Local Community Chest and other public and private agencies and advises that persons planning to come to Akron expecting to find work immediately should delay their coming until those who are already there are properly integrated within the social and industrial life of the community."

Here Is a Man With a Fiery Breath MEMPHIS, Aug. 8.—Vice-President Dawes, during a short stopover in Memphis Thursday, witnessed a "divine" trick performed by a Negro car repairer for the benefit of the Vice-President and at the expense to him of a new hand-embroidered handkerchief. William Watson, the "magician," says that when he was a boy he had a vision from heaven and that he became endowed with the power to blow his breath on any object and set it afire. The party was taken to the office of Clyde Mays, general superintendent of the Illinois Central Railroad, and Watson came forward. He asked for a handkerchief and Mr. Dawes let him have one, with the remark: "Well. I'll never see it again." Watson, true to his promise, blew his breath on it and, after a few mysterious puffs, the handkerchief caught fire. The trick went unexplained.

THE GIRL WHO REFUSED TO BE A WALLELOWER From a dear friend I learned the thrill of being a once unpopular girl who loved her hair, consulted her life coach, and friends misled calmly with their excursions. This enthrall waltower, in the darkest moments of her despair, consulted her life coach, and she realized the full truth about herself. For she cried herself critically, so critically in fact that she spoke to a friend about the matter the next day. She was just as frank—yet being a true friend she took steps to help her socially unpopular companion. And stranger as it may seem the next day, anyone can follow them up most readily. Each morning wash the face with a soap thatathers quickly and liberally. Then she vanishes instantly. This project and also serves as a day time power base. And again, cleanse the face, neck and hands—tits time applying a cold cream that nourishes the skin tissues. So as you sleep such a cream is developing a light, bright, attractive complexion. Frequently, for heat results it is best to heat them by as many as all trials. Heat the face a number of times with a number of hot towels, then remove the oilment, following with hot or light treatment as described *p*.

L. D. BEFORE taking ship for Europe Miss Alberta Hunter dropped in to the office of our performers in Europe. Miss Hunter is going on a vacation, and her tour will involve the principal cities of the old world. We are also hoping to get her impressed of the places visited, and the people she meets, and of entertaining, if an offer commensal with her ability as an entertainer likely accepts. For the benefit of the boys and girls on the other side, we take this medium of asking that the best of the warm-befitting one who has made good in her particular line. WHEN these few lines reach the office of Miss Hunter, I know how much we appreciate copies of the European papers which he has been writing. Even when Al made the trip to entertain in Spain for months he did not forget to keep us advised. He did our best, our best correspondents in Europe. YOU will notice Ivan H. Browning's a account of what the performers had to do when Hacken was due to leave London for New York. Gus came in twenty-four hours before Ivan's letter and he has been giving us the personal low down to the boys and girls on the other side. If you have been reading the Amsterdam ews for any length of time you have been working in conjunction with the writer, who made possible the feature in colored newspaper more than fifteen years ago. At that time we carried pictures of the feature in English with comments by Gus himself. Yes, we retain the right to feel proud that we are still on the tour, and we have some attention to the entertainers when they go so far away from home. SOME of our rivals attempt to tell the world that the running of pictures, etc., did not come into being until they arrived to place Gotham on the map, goddess of the most prominent performers always single out the Amsterdam News when they want to prove this by noting our comments from Europe from time to time. CLARENCE MUSE informs us that his "Mississippi song" words are protected, and other performers found using it or in any way attempting to steal it will be brought to account. Das dat! JOHN C. SMITH (You know John: you have danced to his music!) is dated on Seventh avenue four years ago. John is located just a few doors below the Amsterdam building, locality for his activities an agreement was signed between John and the writer. John is the big tree, coming up the avenue, while the writer has control from the opposite side, to meet in between it is mutually agreed that the matter will be submitted to the Board of Arbitration and left to a toss up. FLORENCE MILLS, in a communication this week, advises that "Blackbirds went great musical" from the list of July up to the 15th. Mille Mills says that she is planning to go to a concert in September. She does not know at this writing if the show will close or not, the Mille Mills makes her home with Bell Davis. FROM Buenos Aires, in the Argentina Republic, comes the following letter from Messrs. Greenlee and Drayton, members of the Academy, ago to entertain in South America: Empire Theatre, Buenos Aires, Argentina. 1937, 1937. Mr. Romeo L. Dobherty, Dramatic Editor, Amsterdam News, New York City, N.Y. Dear Mr. Romeo, Just a line to let you know that we are still in the land of the living, and Abby's jazz band. They are playing for us in the white revue in which we are featured. The band is great, and we perform for a few weeks after we finish here. I beguile to all, GREENLEE and DRAYTON. We have not forgotten that we owe a great deal of appreciation to our own Ivan H. Browning for being con- sidered the dupe of our colored perform- ers "over there." Mr. Browning has consistently kept us adven- tured, and anything we encountered on this side. SAM CRAIG, for many years stage manager at the Lafayette Theater, John West, who died on August 11. During the past two or three years he posed as a stage manager. Sam returned to his post on Friday, after being away for two months, etc. Mrs. West was a prominent member of one of the local lodges. FROM Johnny Hudgens comes this epilogue, from Paris, where he is the stage manager at the Theater Apollo. Paris, France, 2009, 12th. Mr. Benoît L. Douglass, Promote Editor, Amsterdam News, New York City, N. Y. Dear Mr. Dougherty, I am very glad and was in good mood to hear from you. Have been very busy of late, but will always find time to write you. I have been away for two weeks visiting Mr. and Mrs. Brooming and daughter at their apartment in New York and just visited Baker and the count have been a sensation over the years.

C. University 6830 IS JOSEPHINE BAKER A FILIPINO GIRL? Razaf Writes in Varying Moods for Readers Crumbly and Jeffreys THE RAILWAYS Valter Crumbly and "Onions" Jeffreys Have Teamed Up to Appear With Clarence Muse in the Revue Entitled "Miss Bandana." The Show Closed a Successful Week at the Lafayette Theatre Sunday Night and Left for Washington, D. C. Having Created a Furore With the Count, Americans Are Running to Form. And now they would have us believe that Josephine Baker is a Filipino lady. Word is going the rounds in Europe among the Americans that everything is alright now with "Mme. Baker," for she is a foreigner "and, you know, my dear, it just couldn't be that any European count would marry one of our Negro girls. Impossible." So Mrs. Stuart, who ran a cabaret which Josephine helped to establish, has the following to say about the American colored girl: "Several times a week Josephine Baker, the premiere danseuse at the 'Folles Bergere', and the American who first introduced the Charleston to Paris, would bring a party and would give an expert exhibition of the Charleston in the center of an admiring circle. Josephine is a Filipino by birth, but of course an American citizen. She is not exactly beautiful but is intensely fascinating to know, and can always be relied upon to do the unexpected. For instance, one night she jumped into the middle of the supper table at which she was sitting and with a glass of champagne in each hand danced the reckless measures of the Charleston—without spilling a drop! "I once visited her luxurious flat near the Champs Elysées and was amazed at its almost sybartic splendor. The salon was a riot of satin cushions, and reclining on a big divan was Josephine Baker's pet baby lioness. Another surprise which was in store for me was her swimming bath, which has a queer boobade made by hidden electric lights, which we pressured that the bath is full of bathing girls. It was most artistic and cost over two hundred thousand and francs, I believe. "Every time Josephine entered 'Paradis d' Amour' the orchestra immediately commenced to play the Charleston, and cries of 'Here comes the Charleston Baby' would be set up. Smiling broadly, 'Mademoiselle Banana,' as she is called because that is all her cosmetic consists of a mask Bergere, would immediately Charleston down the middle of the floor. They were gay nights, those!" been denied in all the papers over here. Not seeing her personally, I am not sure she will be able to matter, but she doesn't seem to have lost any prestige. I did not here in Paris and have had some wonderful offers for America and over here, but as yet she has not been open at the Moulin Rouge until November, and as I will have two weeks to think of coming home. At the same time I have had an offer to open in Stockholm Sweden, for two months in order to be fully inclined to accept, as there isn't anything at home as good just at this time. I am not sure she will be remembered to you. More later. JOINNY HUDGINS.

Futility of Vanity is Demonstrated in "Vanity" Leatrice Joy, as Heroine of New Picture, Has Harrowing Experience Exclusive Park avenue meets Hell's Kitchen—two men die when Barbara Fiske visits the rough captain of a tramp steamer—and a lark ends in her learning undreamed truths. Such, in brief, is the central situation "Vanity," the newest starring picture of Leatrice Joy, which will be the bill at the Rosevelt Theatre on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Aug. 13, 14 and 15. "Vanity" deals with a debutante reared to regard life as a carefully matched pattern with certain standards by which all people may be judged. Always she has done the correct thing, but on the eve of her wedding she follows a mad impulse, believing that no one will ever know. Unpleasant results follow and Barbara learns the futility of vanity, finding that he man nature reacts according to environment. Earlier he becomes understandable to her. Charles Ray, who plays a feature supporting role, is a vastly different individual than in former characterizations. A debonair man-about-town has replaced the rural lad, and he is said to be as adept in sophisticated roles as he was as a small-town youth. Alan Hale has the featured villain role. Donald Crisp directed under the supervision of G. Gardner Sullivan. -:- Our Lighter Side -:- Being a Survey of Mirth, Music and Laughter On and Off the Stage BACK STAGE. Salem Whitney's "Lamp Post" bit in Clarence Muse's show was clever stuff and artistically done. Here is a real artist and showman who doesn't have to resort to filth in order to "go over." Cecil Graham displayed a brand of dancing that just wouldn't quit. The hip-hop tap Charleston was refreshingly different. Why do they call them "midnite" shows when they start any time after one in the morning? Hokun—"Boy, let's change our act." We only used it ten years. Hokun—"Why wonder that agent don't book us." Poor Muse, he doesn't know a good act when he sees one." WILL MARION COOK An angel strummed her harp close to his ear. No one but he, a genius, could hear Such brave chords. And, in mad ecstasy, He caught a theme divine and prosse. The world, enraptured by his gift of song, Heard "Exhortations," "Rain" and "Swing Along." Oh, thoughtless land! Hast thou forgotten now This fighter one who looks with puzzled brow At swine who outrage music and her And yet gain wealth and thunderous applause? God help a people who must ever When genius is neath a skin of brown! "AFRICANA." here's musical revues That he's musical revues — the kind of show we've long desired, Conceived by one who was inspired by public figures, and most of its money' worth. Here Ethel Waters, from the start, Win will you over with her art. Theo greatly troubled with her threat; With skill she handles every note and with grace she fames her fame. She truly identifies her name. A world of personality, A dynamic of comedy, A dynamic of jazz and song. Whose work electrifies the throng.

The cast is one hard to surpass. The chorus girls have beauty and smip All credit to this Douglas chap Who staked the numbera He's "too \ genius, just like his dad. The score is pleasing to the ear.

How she can play those melodies! Earl Dancer has produced a hit. Earl Dancer has produced a hit. LAND OF MELODY. STOLEN HONORS In silence he listened While the folks would praise his song; His muses on the title page Where it did not belong. Within his heart he was the meantest For he had BOUGHT the number From a fellow in the street. Hats off to Jimmy Johnson, the musi- ter pianist and rhythm king. We pre- Jict that George Gershwin and the Jict that John Coltrane and the little blue rhapdosies and make it for the tall timber when they hear Jim- ton and M. K. Kearney. The rhapdosies in black—and all that the name implies. At this particular time, when so- called white authorites on jazz, blues and rock, Jimmy Johnson and and Dane on their of their col- ored brothers, Jimmy Johnson rise- like a Negro obsess to deliver us out of musical boudge. With I was able, I'd soon be "hiring a hall" and inviting H. L. Mencken and J. C. Johnson to hear Jimmy play his "Yam-E-Kraw." America's first genuine blues rhapsody. An impressive set of boys are these Johnsons. There is another one along Melody Lane, known as "J. C." Often got Jimmy and J. C. Johnson mixed up. It's a compliment either "J. C." is known for his sweet tunes and is no piper at the piano, either. He is also a music teacher. "You Can't Do What My Last Man Did." He is co-writer of some songs the world will hear this fall, namely, "Walk Like a Lion," "Town," "Louannah" and "I Wonder When." The Gayety Building at 1547 Broadway (We jokingly call it Uncle Tom's Hearts). There has never been a juck-juck spot for our boys. It was here that W. C. Handy, Clarence Williams and Mary Bradford made money and history. Here's hoping it will likewise prove lucky for the new-born fame of Wally McNeal and Arthur Tower. These boys are clever writers and are very popular. We wonder why so many colored performers have the need of new songs, forever ignores and pushes up music publishers of their own race. None of the Ofray publishers have any better material than our own boys. Why not give them a chance? H. L. Mencken is a columnist, and not a song writer, so does not know how many times he is writing the high infers that colored composers have the same chance the white writer has in placing their numbers. How many times has some illiterate woman written that she is considered, "pretty numbers" from colored writers, as they could only write blues and "low-down" numbers? When we pick up the catalogues of the various phonograph record companies we wonder who the jackass was that started that "race record" stuff. There is only one race—the human race; and an artist is an artist for a that and a that. By the way: We have some good music down town—Vodder, Still, Ricketts, Clark, Booker, Wooding and others.

Real feminine screams that were not "in the picture" split the air when the fight sequence was being filmed for "Rough House Rosie," Clara Bow's new starring vehicle, which comes to the Lincoln Theatre Thursday. They came from the lively little star herself, sitting in a ring-side seat at the Hollywood American Legion Stadium, where the sequence was taken. Reed Howes, her leading man, and a professional, seemingly conscienceless opponent were in the ring. The auditorium was filled with people, most of them ardent fight fans, as the scene was taken on one of the regularly scheduled program nights. Howes, a powerfully built youngster, and his photoplay enemy were miffing around, trying to get over the action Director Frank Strayer demanded. Howes, however, caught his opponent a terrific crack on the point of the jaw, and before the other man realized it he had started one from the floor for Howes. It landed and Howes sank. It was then that Clara screamed, but the plericing yell had a good effect, as it served to clear Howes' head and the fight went on as scheduled, with the crowd cheering and blow "Rough House Rosie" was written by Nunnally Johnson, the adaptation made by Max Marcin and the screen play by Ethel Doherty and Louis Long. Arthur Housman is co-featured with Howes, as are Doris Hill and Douglas Gilmore.

"Highfliers of 1927," the show at the Lafayette Theatre this week, moves through a series of scenes and specialties that keeps the audience delighted. Billy Higgins, Joe Byrd, Dewey Brown provide the comedy. Pauls and Darroll do a very clever Bowery dance and a beautiful acrobatic waltz. The Three Dixie Songbirds rendered four splendid numbers. Nina May, a newcomer to the stage, made hit with her rendition of "Log Cabin in Home." Miss May, incidentally, took part in the midnight benefit performance staged recently by the Urban League. Leonard Harper heard the little "amateur" and believes she is now headed for a brilliant future on the stage. All the girls in the chorus do "specialties." Under Harper's untiring instruction, those girls have advanced to the point where any of them can do "principal" parts. This is particularly true of the Misses Bertha Young, Marle Preval, Carmen Lopez, Baby Fisher, Mabel Nichols and Dolly McCormack. The work of the girls is combined with some very splendid skib boys. The photoplay part of the program at the Lafayette this week includes two features: Botty Compson in "Say It With Diamonds" for the first three days and "Is Zat So?" the film comedy sensation, with George O'Brien and Edmund Lowe, for the four days beginning Thursday.

J.—With as perfect a day as could be desired, and a large and enthusiastic crowd of tennis fans gathered from far and near, filling every inch of space in the stands, and completely surrounding the fine courts of the Manual Training School of this city, National Champion Eyre G. Saitch, of New York, and Miss Lulu Ballard, of Philadelphia. Pa., successfully defended their crowns as Eastern sectional champions on Saturday, August 6, when they repeated their victories of a year ago on these same courts. Saitch defeated his foremost rival, Ted Thompson, of Washington, D. C., in straight sets, 7-5, 8-6, 9-7, and Miss Ballard did likewise to her chief rival, Miss I. Channels, formerly of Chicago, now of Roanoke, Va., 6-3, 5-7, 8-6. The Second Eastern Sectional Tournament was held this year under the joint auspices of the New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania Tennis Associations and the Germantown Tennis Club of Philadelphia, and besides a very handsome and valuable lot of prizes offered, the winners of the singles events secured legs on the Savoy Trophy, the beautiful three-year cup put in competition for men's singles by the Savoy Ballroom, through its managing director, Mr. Charles Buchanan, and the Brathwaite trophy for women's singles, donated by the Brathwaite Business School, both to the New York Tennis Association. The entries were not as large last year, but what it lacked in quantity was entirely made up in the quality of the players entered. There were 64 entries in the men's singles, 29 in women's singles, 27 teams of men's doubles, 24 in mixed doubles, 12 in women's doubles and 7 jan'or singles. Saitch and Thompson battled throughout the week to reach the final; the former being called upon to defeat E. Robinson of N. J.; Geo. Smith, N. Y.; Tally Holmes, Washington, and Sylvester Smith, Pa., and the latter L. McWilson N. J.; J. Trotman, N. Y.; P. Richardson, N. Y.; G. Hill, N. J., and L. C. Downing, Va. Somehow or other it seemed the logical conclusion of the elimination process, even though last year Ted Thompson was tripped up on his way by Johnny Wilkinson, his fellow Washingtonian. Switch completely outplayed his formidable rival, playing with ease and grace from the start, and gave all evidences of being in complete control of the situation at all times. As the scores will indicate, Thompson fought all the way, but found a different Switch to what he formerly knew, an impregnable Switch; an aggressive Switch; a Switch in the pink of physical condition; and a Switch wearing the crown of National Champion. It wasn't very long before Thompson, like the large gallery present, sensed the ultimate results of the match. The woman's singles developed into a stirring battle between Miss I. Channels, National Woman's Singles champion, and Miss Lulu Ballard, of Philadelphia. Miss Ballard took the first set at 6-3, but after a bitter struggle dropped the second set at 5-7. Both players went after the third and deciding set, and after a most wonderful exhibition of tennis Miss Ballard triumphed at 8-6. There was no doubt in the minds of those present, that Miss Ballard has improved her game tremendously since last year. Miss Channels, at all times a hard nut to crack, was as good as ever, but the Philadelphia miss went her one better, and on the form displayed should come through in the nationals at Hampton, a title she won in 1925 and lost to Miss Channels in 1926.

McGraw on the occasion of his twenty-fifth year in major league baseball will be given "Smoky Joe" Williams, veteran right hand pitcher and former manager of the Lincoln Giants, when he leads Cum Posey's Homestead Grays to Protectory Oval, Sunday, August 14, for the final two games of a five game series with the Lincoln Giants. Interest in this series is surpassing any that has been staged between two colored teams in New York, and it is predicted that the largest crowd to ever see a series of games at Protectory Oval will be present. Leroy Wilkins, well-known billiard room propetrator and one of Joe Williams' most loyal friends had planned to spend the week in Saratoga Springs, but when he heard Joe was coming to town he immediately postponed his vacation so that he might see "Smoky Joe" in action once more. Mr. Wilkins has consented to head a reception committee to welcome Williams. It is also likely that this committee (which includes Alvin Moses, Jule Thomas, Percy Brown, and fifty seconds of the fourth round, when Hendrickson dropped his adversary for a count of ten with a hard right to the jaw. The lads battled in the final of the 147-pound class and at the end of the usual three rounds the judges voted a draw. In the extra stanza Moss weakened, while Hendrickson continued his lightning pace to floor his foe. Phil Leaun of the Astoria K. of C. scored an impressive knockout triumph over Jack Ivans of the Fordham Aces in a special 135-pound clash. Leaun rocked Ivans to sleep with a right to the stomach and a left to the jaw after two minutes and twenty-nine seconds of the second round. In a special 147-pound bout, Jack Aldare, unattached, outboxed and outgenerated George Harvey of Crupp's Gymnasium, to gain the judge's decision at the conclusion of the third round. The summary: 112-Pound Class: Bucky Keyes Romeo L. Dougherty, Bill Harris, Fred Accool and George Scales) will make a presentation to Williams on behalf of New York fans. The doubleheader will begin at 1:30 instead of 2 p. m. and Williams is scheduled to pitch the first game. Of course, John Henry Lloyd and his Lincoln Giants expect to cop the series, but the heavy schedule they have this week—eight games in six days—may be something of a handicap to them. They played the Philadelphia Elks, Monday; Allentown, Tuesday; Unlontown, Thursday; the Grays, Friday and Saturday in three games, and hop back to New York for the doubleheader Sunday.

Ted Moses, representing the Astoria K. of C., was the outstanding performer of the amateur boxing show conducted by the Columbus Council K. of C. at the latter's clubhouse last Saturday night. Moses, fighting for the 147-pound class laurels, scored two knockouts to win the honors. The Astoria boy, who has been active of late, returned to the form which carried him almost to the top in that division. He knocked out Leo Lobel, Lenox Hill A. C., in his first bout and then in the final he dropped Jack Forman in the opening round after one minute and twenty seconds of fighting. Joe Carrasas, Unionport A. C., also scored a double win to capture the 128-pound class. Joe defeated Tony Scafesor, Elizabeth A. C., after three hard rounds in his opening bout. In the final he was paired off with a most formidable opponent in Sammy Miller, of the National A. C. After four of the most exciting rounds of the present outdoor season at the Casey clubhouse Cararas was awarded the decision. Sam Farber, clever little 118-pounder from Seward Gym, also knocked out Fred Saunders in his first fight, and in the final he repeated the performance against Romeo Parsett, of the Trinity Club. Mike Samuelson, of the Norwegian Society, defeated Joe Thornton, of the Lenox H. A. C., in a special 128-pound class bout. A rally by Mike in the final round enabled him to win. 118 Pounds: Romeo Parretti, Trinity Club, scored a technical knockout over Tony Sioia, South Brooklyn Club, first round; Sam Farber, Seward Gym, knocked out Fred Saunders, unassisted. 128 Pounds: Sammy Miller, National A C, defeated Jim Keller, Trinity Club, decision; Joe Carreras, Union- LINCOLN GIANTS SPLIT EVEN WITH CAMDEN New Jersey Players Win 1st Game, 9 to 8, and Bronx Team the 2nd, 10 to a The Lincoln, Giants broke even with "Wid" Conroy's Camden, N.

Free-for-All Fight Nets Six Injured Six proxsons were injured, including one white man, when the latter joined a fight on Friday night which the colored men were having among themselves and he acquired himself so well in the unequal battle that required a squad of policemen to restore the near riot which followed. The most seriously injured were John Daniels, 21, of 524 Avenue C, John Pruss, 27, of 518, of 45 Eas, twenty-first street.

The color line row which incited so much discussion at the Ladies' Auxiliary American Legion State Convention in New Bedford several weeks ago, resulting in resolutions being passed opposing the "40 and 8" society by that body, looms as the most important question concerning the State American Legion Convention held at Fitchburg this week. The matter, which has rumbled before at Legion conventions, has this year come to a hand by reason of constitutionnal amendment proposed by the Rose of Jamaica Plain, a member of the Yankee Division Post. No. 230. Although the proposed amendment does not specifically name the governor, the concession in Boston Legion circles, that it can be aimed at nothing else.

Let's not forget that one of summertime's menaces to health is the "common" fly. Momentarily it may not be so annoying as the mosquito—but it may do more lasting harm than a whole swarm of mosquitoes. For health's sake, for cleanliness' sake, swat it! The fly is dirty. It feeds on refuse, and it picks up and carries unnumbered germs. As the season progresses on fly picks up tens of thousands of bacteria. Keep it away from young babies and children.

Mrs. John Hope, the wife of President John Hope of Morehouse College, is a very potent factor in the civic life of Atlanta, Ga. Ever since she came out of Chicago, over twenty years ago, as Genie Burns and married a professor who has since become president, her influence has been felt all over the city. She gave birth to the Neighborhood Union idea that has flowered since its inception nineteen years ago and now flourishes citywide. Within the past months a new Health Center Home has been reected through the activity of this union. Children are receiving proper attention and the health of this next generation will be bettered because of this institution. Mrs. Hope was one of the few selected by Mr. Hoover, secretary of U. S. Department of the Interior, to investigate conditions in the flood district. Upon being asked where she preferred to be sent, she gave this reply, typical of her always: "Wherever I am most needed!" She was sent into the most devastated region and lives to tell the tale of an experience hair-turning its stench and heart. Upon being asked if she would give the same intrepid answer if she had to repeat this experience, she answered unhesitatingly. "Yes."

Yo NX aed e -- What Harlem Eats -:- Writer Finds Health Dept. Is Grossly Negligent in This Section we Dr. Royal 5. Copeland was Health Commission of the City of New York he insisted over the determined opposition of the great food interests that all food which is placed up- ‘on exhibition should be cov- ered. Not alone did he in- sist, he had the Board of Aldermen pass Jaws to that effect. These laws are still in effect, and are being enforced, in so tar ag this 1s possible, in ail sections of the clty except Harlem. The inspection system of the Board of Health and the Commission- er’s office appears to be rather lax and inefficient in Harlem. Complaints and arrests for viola- tions are rare. Restaurants, hotdog stands, soda fountains, fish 1 markets, meat markets, bare and other food serving ‘organizations are nothing less in Harlem than Dacterla incubators: which serve to help the Negro on his death- ly ‘way. Under the old inspection sys- tem which obtained in the Health Department during the !a- cumbency of the present senior senator, Royal S. Copeland, tt was posaPle -to place responsibility directly for any laxity which might have appeared in the en- forcement of the sanitary laws. This was possible then only be- cause of the fact that Dr. Cope- Jand had introduced a system of regional {nspection, instead of the previous and present “gen- eral inspection” system, which doos not permit of the proper responsibility being placed upon the shoulders of accountabls officials. The writer was informed at the offices of the Department of Health on July 20 that the usual monthly {inspection of the dis- trict above 110th street had been made for that month and that it could not promise to take care of the complaints the writer suh- mitted. Imagine “monthly inspections” being conducted by a department of health ina city lke New ‘York! The Department of Health derives its power and appropria- tions from, the Democratically bossed Board of Aldermen and the Board of Estimate and Ap- portionment. For instance, there is a law which prohibits the use of any store or shop for sleeping pur- poses. if such shop or store is used for making, cleaning, stor- ing, washing .or’ manufacturing, or preparing food or clothinz of any sort for human consump- tion or use.

How My Sister Was Saved HIS is a story of childhood—my own and my oldest I sister's, and a story of love, which was almost wor- ship, of a little brother toward an older sister. It is also a story of hatred and threatened vengeance towards a father who did his duty. ‘My sister was fourteen, just entering the dangerous pe- ried of adolescence.

Grey comply with this regulation shall be punishable by the law. ‘The law fs even more specific upon the point of protecting the exposed food from bacteria ard germs. It gives any citizen the right to call a police officer and demand the arrest of any pro- prietor or attendant of any bus- iness place found violating thls section of the Taw. It gives in- spectors of the Department of Health power to order the imme- diate arrest of any such viola- tors, or summon them toa criminal court. The law also makes it manda- tory for the proprietors to wash, and, under certain circum: stances, to paint the walls aad general interfor of such stores. In the matter of the examina- tion of food handlers, the Inw provides that cards shall be kept on the premises by the owners indicating the date and month upon whfch the physical examina-. tion of the owner or clerk was, made, and compels the proprie- tors to display the cards upon re- auest. Within the past three months the writer has entered more than sixty-eight such stores and found that in most instances the cards in the possession of the proptletors indicated that physi- cal examinations bad not been held for more than three months previous. In one notable in- stance the card which, should have been fiery red, was blue, a color not used by the depart- ment since 1925. The most Jatimate relation- ship exists between an individual and his food, and the eastest way to Kill an individual 1s to permit one suffering from disease to handle food.

Then, too, the ‘wind carries all sorts of bacteria and germs to the food when it {s not covered. Not only is it true that the proprietors of eating places re- fuse to comply with the law, they are positively insulting when thelr attention ts called to violations of the laws. One pro- prietor whose attention had been called to specific violations by the writer informed him that it he dfd not like the way his place was being run that he need not ever return to it It would appear, then, that the entire inspection’ system tas broken down, in so far as Har- Jem is concerned. Dead dogs and other animals are allowed to Me on the streets and avenues for days at a time without the slightest danger of their being removed, and when complaints are made to the varlous depart- ments of the menace they are ignored.

FAR ROCKAWAY, Aug. 3—As we swung up the gaily bedecked avenue that memorable day after we had been to France prepared to make the "supreme sacrifice" along with our white brothers, thousands of white people lined the streets. Confetti fell like a white cloud upon our helmets and our shoulders. Wild cheers rent the air and each and every one of us, black soldiers and officers, bearing proudly the Stars and Stripes, which had "never touched the ground" under our consignment, felt that we had indeed returned to a country which would live up to her preachments aent that democracy for which we had fought. Then came unmistakable disillusionment. Day after day we had itammed down our throats that America went wild over ouraccomplishments in that muddy hell in France but for a day. And nowwe are having it brought to our notice in unmistakable terms that the democracy of which a WarPresident so blatantly shouted did not include us. We are as things apart in that democracy for which we shared the rigors of the World'sWar with the white men of theworld and the white men ofAmerica in particular. For years they have been trying tokeep us out of God's ocean downat the Rockaways, but thissummer they have been concentratingon efforts which will for all timeon deny black citizens of thiscountry their right to the pursuitof happiness and those other thingscontained in a constitution apparentlynot meant to include us. For the past few weeks the name of race prejudice has been fanned in the Rockaways. The "Wave," one of those vile sheets which, instead of being constrained to do what it could to be worthy of belonging to an honored fourth estate, and its editors in their small way to walk in the footsteps of those honored and long since dead men who so nobly fought with their pens that a race might be free, is lending itself to encouraging that smouldering fire which will some day break forth when black men, in utter despair, decide that Harrick Henry was right. So far has this thing of attempting to say who should dip into the ocean which God gave all of us, and where our cars and automobile busses should be parked. Is finding its response in the minds of the ignorant and the hearts of the simple minded. And now a mass meeting will be staged at 10th street on the ocean front this Wednesday night to induce residents and others lending an ear to believe that black men and black women must not be considered in the scheme of things in the United States of America. And to that end appeared this day the following circular, thrown to the winds, where willing white hands gather them and where those with Klux-r ideas smirk with satisfaction: WEDNESDAY EVE., AUG. 10, 1927 ON THE BEACH At 103th Street and the Ocean THE PUBLIC IS CORDIALLY INVITED TO ATTEND White supremacy must not perish.

Therefore, then, we see the white man, cowardly afraid that white supremacy will perish by giving unto, other men JUSTICE and the right to enjoy those things which they allow men of all other races, even the alien, to enjoy, and which they would deny even unto us whose forbears toiled without reward that this country should reach the heights now attained among the nations of the world. Are we going to sit idly by and see these evil people bring into our fair city Jim Crow practices which obtain in the most benighted sections of the country? And this in the face of laws already on the statute books of this State. To arms, to arms, my people, and let it be understood that I make no call to the physical, but to those of mental superiority among us who will go into the courts and let it be spread far and near — this bold attempt to bar Negroes from enjoying the ocean breezes and the waters of the sea. Alfred Gale Passes Away Prominent Brooklynite and Fraternal Man Buried From Concord. Nearly a thousand people attended the funeral services of the late Alfred W. Gale, 62, a well known fraternal and church worker and husband of Mrs. Mary Gale, a national figure in the J. R. Giddings and Jolliffe Union, also known as the Order of Tents, on Thursday evening. Aug. 4. at Concord Baptist Church of Christ, Adelphi street near Myrtle avenue. He died at his home, 164 Hoyt street, Aug. 1. Mr. Gale was a member of this church for over thirty years, and the pastor, Dr. James B. Adams, in his sermon, paid a high tribute to the life and character of the deceased. Mr. Gale was a member of Alpha Lodge of Oddfellows and the Sons of Virginia. Both organizations had representatives present and conducted their solemn ritual for the dead. Mr. Gale came here a number of years ago from Virginia. He had been employed for a number of years in a responsible position in a bank in the Wall street section for many years. Mr. Gale had been ill for some time, and recently went to the Holy Family Hospital, where he was operated upon. It was thought that he would recover from the effects of the operation and his death was a shock to his host of friends. He is survived by his widow and a sister. Interment was in the Evergreen Cemetery. Injured When Auto Started Suddenly Alton Lord, 27, of 1956 Dean street, was among the large number of persons injured through automobile accidents on Sunday, July 31. Lord was attempting to start his automobile in a garage at 2031 Dean street, when the machine suddenly started forward, pinning him against a wall. Other men in the garage heard his outcries and released him. An ambulance was summoned from the St. Mary's Hospital. The surgeon stated that Lord had been injured internally. He was taken to the hospital. Porto Rican With Record Sentenced to Sing Sing John Cruz, 31, of 192 West 118th street, Manhattan, was sentenced to serve from five to ten years in Sing Sing by County Judge Taylor last week after he had pleaded guilty to the recent burglary of the haberdashery store of Jacob M. Joseph, 178 Myrtle avenue. Cruz, a native of Porto Rico, has a criminal record extending back to 1922, when he was sent to the workhouse as a vagrant. He also served a year for unlawful entry and has been convicted three times on narcotic charges.

Kenny, white, president of the Chamber of Commerce of the Rockaways, who seems worried because of the influx of colored people, particularly in the Hammels section and Seaside, stated recently that considerable unensiness is expressed by the business men, who complain that white persons refuse to mingles with the newcomers on the bathing beach. Mr. Kenny explained that while the Board of Trade is not holding active sessions during the summer, steps would be taken at the first opportunity to devise means of controlling the situation, discussing the matter in a serious community spirit with fairness to all concerned. John W. Wainwright, white, of Seaside, who is one of the largest property owners of the section is inclined to consider the question less seriously. He thinks reports are exaggerated and the so-called "problem" will right itself in the natural course of events. Harry E. Tudor, white, manager of the Thompson Park, said that during the summer and the recent holidays the preponderance of Negroes was noticeable and he believed this ratio would increase unless drastic measures were adopted. What is meant by "drastic measures" was not explained. Colored people have been living in different sections of the Rockaways for many years, but it seems that this larger group has excited the white brother. At Far Rockaway there is a sufficient number to attempt to support a church and pastor. In the summertime he fares exceptionally well, but in the winter, when most of the parishioners have returned to the city, he fares not so well.

Arnold Osman, 24, of 250 West 133d street, Manhattan, is in a critical condition in Cumberland Street Hospital, where he is under arrest, charged with homicide.

Boyle returned the shots, hitting Osman twice, once in the head and once through the abdomen. At the hospital it was reported Osman's chances of recovery were slight. Boyle held his prisoner in a doorway on Bridge street against a big crowd of Negroes, who demanded he be freed, until arrival of reserves from the Poplar street station. The reserves were busy for several minutes before they restored order and scattered the crowd Patrons in the restaurant told the police that Osman when handed his bill by Karkarus began an argument, then pulled a gun and shot him dead.

It is expected that the vanguard of the convention crowds will be in town by that night and that a number of prominent members of the order will be among those present. The committee in charge, headed by Wm. H. McFarland, are planning several surprises and have made arrangements to cars for and please an immense crowd. Ulmer Park, where the picnics of Brooklyn Lodge have been held for the past few years, has been redecorated and made into one of the finest places of its kind in Greater New York. Mrs. Elizabeth C.

Harten of Brooklyn preached three times to the people of Philadelphia, who turned out in large numbers to hear the man whose militant work has kept him among the foremost preachers in Greater New York. In some places it is said that the people, for lack of space, Philadelphia, who turned out in large numbers to hear the man whose militant work has kept him among the foremost preachers in Greater New York. In some places it is said that the people, for lack of space, tried to enter the places where the Brooklyn minister was appearing through the windows. Reverend Harten, on his swing around the country, plans to invade the South and Middle West. That Dr. Harten is a crowd getter goes without saying, as he has been able to draw larger than most ministers in the various cities where he has been appearing. The fearlessness of the Brooklyn preacher has been demonstrated repeatedly in the "City of Churches," where he can be found in the front ranks of those fighting for the rights of the race. Man Held Up in Hallway on Fleet Place Charles Andrews of 170 South Oxford street was pushed into the hallway at 44 Fleet place early Wednesday by four other colored men, who took from him three rings, a tie pin, $55 in currency and a number of trinkets he had in his pockets.

They are Frank Grey, 28, of 46 Hall street, and Milton Pope, 23, of 189 Ashland place. Police said they were identified by Andrews. New Community Center Opened in Jamaica, L. I The Tousaint Community Center, fathered by E. Tousaint Welcome, opened its doors recently on New York avenue near Cumberland street and will try to fill certain wants of the people in Jamaica which, it is understood, has been attempted in the past, but without success. A large building, with a dance hall on the main floor and club rooms on the top, will be used not only for dances and members of the club, but for any community effort which those behind the venture feel is worthy of being given the consideration which has been denied by the whites. Within the next few weeks a community enterprise whereby the children and young people of both races will be taught the modern dances will be started with a well known stage celebrity in charge.

EDITORIAL PAGE FIFTEEN --- in --- CORONA FLUSHING and JAMAICA Young Men and Young Women to Write for The Amsterdam News Public Forum Resolution Opposes Lynching As a result of Dr. Adena C. E. Minnott's stirring appeal against lynching on Tuesday evening, July 27, the Brooklyn Heights Public Forum at its weekly meeting on Aug. 2, in the auditorium of Public School No. 15. Third avenue and State street, adopted a resolution, which was offered by the presideat. William J. Dillthey, white, which opposed the lynching of Negroes. The resolution, even though it was introduced in a public meeting in a northern state, caused considerable discussion for and against it. Some speakers stated that it was only a gesture and made a demand that the laws on the books be enforced. Others stated that such agitation was necessary in order to call attention to this great blot on the so-called American civilization. Dr. Minnott, who is a member of the forum and who is chairman of the Anti-Lynching Department of the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs, discussed the subject at length at the previous meeting: Negro Cops Held on Robbery Charge in Bk'n. Two colored policemen, Joseph Fournier, of the Classon avenue precinct, and Joseph Centron, of West Thirty-fifth street, precinct, Manhattan, were held in $2,500 bail each last week when arraigned before Magistrate Folwell in Gates Avenue Court on charges of robbery.

FIFTEEN Coney "Wild Man" Is Not Wild Flynn Says He Was Born in Virgin Islands and Not in Borneo. A short, stocky man, who described himself as Leroy Flynn, 21, of 2839 West Sixth street, Coney Island, is through enacting the role of the "Wild Man of Borneo" at a side show following his experience Monday afternoon. Flynn, wearing a pair of black tights, his face, hands and body streaked with paint, was shackled by the legs to a booth in front of the "Palace of Wonders." 536 Surf avenue. He was the principal ballyhoo for the show. While a stentorian-voiced barker was relating to the crowd in front of the place the story of the "wild man's" capture, a young man walked over to the booth and remarked: "You are not a wild man, you're a faker." Flynn later explained that he paid no attention to the young man, pretending that he did not understand. He said he paced up and down the booth as though he really were wild when his tormentor said to him: "Come on, nigger, take your cosmetics off. You are not fooling anybody." "I looked at him ferociously," declared Flynn. "In return, the man laughed at me. That was too much for me. I did grow wild and picked up a bottle that was in the booth and hurled it at the man." Flynn was a poor marksmans, instead of hitting his target, the 'bottle struck two bystanders. One. Mrs. Rose Klesa, 36, of 50 Grand street, received deep lacerations of the scalp. The other, William McDonald, 27, of 342 Third avenue, received a cut under the right eye. They were treated by Ambulance Surgeon Povilin at the Coney Island police station. The woman was removed to the Coney Island Hospital. Patrolman Nelson Kyle arrested Flynn on a charge of felonious assault. "I do not come from Borneo and I am not wild." Flynn said at the police station. "I was born in the Virgin Islands. I just took the job as wild man, but I did not think I would have to submit to such abuse. I am in reality an author, but unsuccessful as yet. I write fiction, evidently not to the satisfaction of editors, for all my manuscript has been returned to me. Believe me, though, it is better to be a poor author than a successful wild man. I'm through being wild." Prof. and Mrs. Lyndon Caldwell left the city on Aug. 2 for Asheville, N.C., where they will spend their vacation, most likely at the Methodist Church of which the Rev. H. Caldwell is pastor. Dr. Caldwell is a brother of Prof. Caldwell who is organist of Concord Baptist Church. Mrs. Caldwell is a lyric soprano. WANTED!

RED CAPS WIN; LOSE SUNDAY As someone once said, "It makes all the difference in the world who's throwing 'em up to the opposing batters in a baseball game." That was proved beyond the shadow of a doubt to the fans at Farmer Oval last Sunday, when the Penn Red Caps mutilated the offerings of tour of the Farmers' pitchers in the first game of a doubleheader for a total of 24 hits and 14 runs, winning 14 to 4, only to lose the second contest, 5 to 4, as a result of their inability to hit safely in the pinches. it was Hen Wiley, the Farmers' twirling ace, who limited the Red Caps to nine hits in the nightcap, while his teammates came from behind in the closing innings to but out a victory. Going into the eighth stanza of this affair, the Glendale outfit was on the short end of a 4 to 2 score. An infield single, an outfield single, a walk and a sacrifice fly enabled the Glendalers to knot the count at 4-ail and a single by Dave Roche in the ninth with one out drove across the winning tally. Hirten opened the final frame by popping up to Johnson at first, but Wiley got a life on Lindsay's error. Healser then doubled to deep left, sending Wiley to third, from where he rode home with the winning run on Roche's above-mentioned one-timer. Curtain Balser Walkaway. The curtain raiser was a walk away for the colored boys. Chad See, Bob Lawrence and Richey were forced to retrete under the heavy fire of the Red Caps before the agony was ended, and Jim Torpo, former N. Y. U. star, who had worked Saturday's game, fared little better. See redeemed himself partially by smaking out a homer, but it proved of no avail against the slugging ebony-hued lods' cru-ing attack. At least the ebony did not wholly cover themselves with glory in this spasm, for a total of only 19 runs on 24 hits is nothing to brag about, as the 13 men that died on the base-match will attest to. But to return to that hair-raising curtain raiser. The visitors were the first to score, getting a run in the second inning on Thomas' single and Wilson's two-bagger, but the Farmers came right back in the third when Mike Donovan singled and worked his way all around on a sacrifice bunt, an error and a sacrifice fly. The Red Caps went into the lead again in the fourth on Lindsey's single. Seary's double and a fielder's choice, adding another in the fifth when Baynard walloped a terrific home run over the right field wall. The Farmers drew up by denting the rubber once in the seventh frame on Krumenacker's double and Donovan's single, but the visitors again drew away in the eighth on Thomas' single and Wilson's second two-bagger. The story of how the Farmers came from behind in their half of the eighth and ninth has been de- sorted previously and bears no re- hashing. Thomas, of the Red Caps, had a perfect batting average in the opener, banging out five safeties in as many chances, while Mike Donovan, with two hits in the first and three in the second, stood out prominently for the farmers.

Masons Confer on Temple Project Masons Confer on Temple Project At Dinner and Mass Meeting Sale of Stock Is Stressed The cause of Prince Hall Masonry in New York got a new impetus last week as the result of a conference called by the newly elected grand master, Waniel T. Teagle, and a mass meeting held last Friday night at Mother Zlon A. M. E. Church. At the conference held last Tuesday night at Craigh's there were present the grand master, Daniel T. Teagle; the deputy grand master, Edward T. Sherwood; grand secretary, Arthur W. Handy; grand treasurer, Harvey E. Williams; Thomas E. Thompson, district deputy, first district; Dr. R. W. Griffen, grand orator; Edgar S. Conyers, grand senior warden, and the following prominent Masons: Emanuel Kline, Walter E. Handy, Pere Zeno, the newly appointed district deputy of the second district, succeeding Samuel A. Gibbs, resigned; William H. Burns, Cornelius Hughes, Major R. Poole, and the following grand trustees; Sidney E. Davis, William Weaver, William H. Harris, Arthur W. Ware, Thomas G. Ball, John S. Brown and Joseph L. Pritchard. The faults and the virtues of the past administration were carefully gone over at the conference and helpful suggestions were given the grand master in his endeavor to attempt a partial completion of the temple started many months ago on West 14th street under Past Grand Master Joseph Sullivan. It was the consensus of opinion among those present that at the mass meeting to be held the following Friday the sale of stock, rather than bonds, would be stressed. With $40,000 cash, said Grand Master Teagle, the completion of two floors and the roofing of the building could be financed at a total expenditure of $175,000. Only sum $69,000 was already been paid to the contractor. A sum of $25,000 is now due on unpaid notes, which would have to be taken care of at once. Under the two-floor plan, the ground floor would be used as a public auditorium and the second floor for the use of the craft. SUBSCRIBE $3,500 AT MEETING AT MEETING. At Friday night's mass meeting the sum of $3,500 was subscribed for stock as the first wedge in the needed $40,000 to save the temple from complete loss to the fraternity. Deputy Grand Master Sherwood introduced Grand Master Teagle, who presided. In his opening address he spoke of the rather unfair plan fostered by his predecessors in adding a cost of $143,000 to the original plan of $273,000 in order to provide a top-floor space for the Consistory, when that branch of Masonry was putting so little money and effort into the project, which, after all, affects Master Masons the most. The evening was enlivened by solos by Mrs. Cordella Alston Teagle, wife of the grand master. Interesting and earnest speeches in furtherance of the stock-selling scheme were made by Cornelius Hughes, Emanuel Kline, Dr. Griffen and Walter Handy, in addition to those of the grand master and Grand Secretary Arthur Handy. A similar mass meeting will be held at Fleet Street Church, in Brooklyn, on Monday night, August S. Mother Zion Church The spacious auditorium of Mother Zion Church was filled to capacity last Sunday morning. Dr. W. K. Robinson, J. L. Robinson. The pulpit was filled by Dr. J. G.

J.; Mallisa Maabod, 178 'West 137th street; Ida Saxon, Jewish Hospital. Rush Memorial The Rev. G. M. Oliver, pastor, delivered the sermon at the 11 o'clock service of Rush Memorial Church on Sunday morning. His subject was "Salvation for a Book"—12:35. The holy communion was celebrated at 3 o'clock. Brother John A. Matthews preached on "The Vision That Transforms"—Isaiah 6:5. In the evening the Rev. G. M. Oliver, pastor of Rush, delivered a very helpful sermon on the text, St. John 3:16. Next Sunday the pastor will preach a special sermon to the midsummer congregation. Wednesday, August 17, at 8 o'clock, the Rev. G. O.

Beauty Secrets By Mme. Sara Washington Brushing Cures Dandruff It is necessary to know how to comb and brush the hair properly. Wrong treatment breaks the hair unnecessarily and does the scalp no good. Brushing polishes the hair, increases the lustre, and helps the circulation in the scalp. First, divide the hair into strands. Then, twisting the strands around the finger, take out the snarls below the twist with a wide tooth comb. This prevents the possibility of piling the hair from the roots and enables you to get the snarls out little by little without breaking the hair. Having removed all the tangles, you should brush the hair thoroughly, starting from the scalp and brushing with even, rhythmic strokes. Hair that comes out in the brushing is probably ready to come out, and if it comes roots and all—there is another new hair to take its place. Hair that is regularly brushed, fifty strokes a day, keeps clean and glossy and vigorous. Where other treatments fall, brushing frequently cures dandruff by stimulating the circulation and the action of the sebaceous glands (oil glands). Incidentally, brushing the hair is excellent exercise for the arms and the muscles of the shoulders. Make this daily brushing a part of your preparation for bed and then notice the great improvement in your hair. Wanted — A Pastry Cook How many times have you heard your husband or father say, "My mother was a wonderful pastry cook?" How often do you get hungry for some "good" pastry? How much do you spend yearly for pastries that you could make yourself, if only you knew the fine points in the pastry making game? Let the questions go! Here are a few suggestions that may help you in your plight: Mix the fat and the flour slightly—the coarser the mixture, the fakier the crust will be. Add only enough water to hold the dry ingredients together in a lump, so that the mixture may be poured out at a little. Use only a little flour on the board for oiling. Roll only one crust at a time, using a gentle pressure and rolling from the center out. Fit the crust carefully into the curves of the pan, leaving no air spaces to bulge the crust up during baking. Fasten two-crust pies well at the edges by brushing the lower edge with water and pressing the upper edge down with a fork or folding into scallops with the finger tips. The upper crust should always be pricked or slashed occasionally to allow the escape of steam. To prevent sealing the lower crust, the surface may be sprinkled with flour or brushed with egg white before adding the filling. Bake all pastry in as hot an oven as possible, taking into consideration the kind of filling, size of pie, etc. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUG. 10, 1927 Colorful News Movies Financial Music JUST within the month Hans Hohner, inventor and promoter of the lowly harmonica, and Frederick J. Steinway, creator and manufacturer of the famous Steinway piano, sang their doxologies and bid the world a final adieu. Although Mr. Steinway's estate has not yet been appraised, it will probably run up into the millions, as the financial precipitate of years or production of the world's greatest piano, from which the deft fingers of many a performer have brought forth entrancing strains. Great, however, has been the astonishment of the financial market to discover that Hohner, the maker of the despised mouth-organ, which retaliated all the way from two to six bits per instrument, piled up an estate of an e million dollars from the reeded, tin-carved mouth-organs which for so long have sent forth wheeery music upon the air from the lungs of many a lusty youth. In the meantime the corporation of Mr. King C. Gillette, maker of safety razors and blades, has announced a 12% per cent dividend on account of the music the Gillette shaver has made upon many a stiff heard. Razor blades, mouth-organs, pinnas—they all ground out financial music to their sponsors; and full many a race dollar have they extracted from our group. On the other hand, we—or rather some of us—probably extracted from Hobner, Steinhay and Gillie eight or ten-hour per day wage, the accretions of which would not amount to a million dollars in a million days. WHAT A LONG, LONG WAY WE HAVE YET TO GO! Two Experts Discuss Race Issue SOUTH AFRICA has a native, or black, population of about 5,500,000; and, outnumbered as he is by nearly five to one, the average European is controlled by fear—fear of this more numerous African population becoming more generally efficient and using its efficiency in industry, politics and education, to the possible disadvantage of the European." says Max Yergan, secretary of the Negro Y. M. C. A in Africa. Another anthropological scholar, Prof. H. B. Moes (white), who is vividly remembered by his scientific and other activities in Washington, D. C., nearly a decade ago, says: "My own conclusion is that the black and the yellow man, after a long period lethargy, have not shown their strength. I believe their awakening is near. A thousand symptoms indicate it. And, since they are much more robust than the whites; it is easy to imagine what may result, WARI We are at the beginning of a new epoch for humanity." Thus, a white man and a black man state, in different words, that FEAR is the generator of prejudice, the axis of the world of the "supremists," the cloak of Jealousy, Persecution and Inhumanity. This spark, when fanned into flames, would be made to subject or consume the weaker peoples. Prof. Moens predicts a world war to settle the problem; while Prof. Yergan virtually predicts an era of despotism and injustice, all growing out of the meltin' Fear. We easily hope that each gentleman is mistaken, and certainly in America, which is the country of our chief concern there is no kernel of life from which there could possibly spring the two extraordinary cycles so veiledly pictured by the experts. In the meantime, Julian Harris (white) of Columbus, Ga., editor of the Enquirer-Sun, asks for remedial introspection. He cries for an influence against ignorance, intolerance and prejudice. "lest the forces and ideas which are menacing America's intellectual progress and growth be permitted to make a jest of justice and a lie of Liberty." This, we think, is the way out of the situation with war, our strife, nor suppression, our stead, rather, knowledge, repentance, and then reformation. Such should be the background of American civilization; yea, of world brotherhood. Does Liberia Lack "States- manhip?" ACCORDING to the Kansas A City "Star," the recent payment of the Liberian debt to the United States "indicates that statemanship in Liberia is at a very low ebb." In other words, it was undiplomatic for this time independence to puymple my state debt without "oven asking for a discount" says the Dallas "News." The Kansas City "Star" further explains, "The Powers first took favorable notice of Liberia when it got a loan from the United States. The Powers said to each other at that time that Liberia showed distinct promise and should be encouraged. True, it got only a small loan, but by firmly declining to pay it back, and otherwise cultivating its debt, it did not have that opportunity that Liberia might go far. But now it has spoiled its chance. It has paid its debt and must henceforth be regarded with scorn. As a country it may have improved its credit, but what does that amount to when its 'statesmanship' has no credit at all? The criticisms of the Western and the Northern papers are fortunately very adverse to that of the Kansas City "Star." We are grateful to know that there are still many people who appreciate honesty and believe in the golden rule. The Cincinnati "Enquarter" says, "She (Liberia) has set an example that larger nations might well emulate," and the Baltimore "Evening Sun" adds, "Under the circumstances, special honor should be given to Liberia by all American taxpayers." The San Francisco "Chronicle" thinks, "When the population and property of Liberia are considered, and we recall the amazing historical background of that little independence, we can realize that it was not an easy matter for Liberia to discharge this debt." While England, France and Italy may trown down on the "Honesty is the best policy" of their little black sister country, surely Liberia has done nothing to merit their scorn and criticism of lack of "statesmanship." Remember Liberia, when the crowd is against you, you are generally in the right. Bacon Suggestions making salmings for oaken uses: 3. Add three slices of bacon, cut into slices to each piece of meat when baking bacon for Hamburg steak or Spanish roast. 4. Use two slices of bacon cooked and finely chopped as a savory addition to the filling for stuffed eggs salad. 5. Use three slices bacon, raw or left-over cooked, in the filling for stuffed tomatoes, stuffed peppers or stuffed eggs. East River Pier School The Board of Education and the Board of Health have united in establishing on East River Pier a school for children suffering from malnutrition and incipient or arrested tuberculosis. Although the pupils take the regular work for their particular grades, they have much individual attention. All are examined once a term by the physician and an effort is made to see that each child who needs it receives health care. Three warm, nourishing meals are served daily. Pupils suffering from malnutrition are returned to regular schools on reaching normal condition. but children assigned because of disease are released only on order of the physician in charge.

Wednesday, August 10, 1927 The Raid on No. 507 Lenox Avenue AS A RESULT of the Police Department's efforts to stamp out "police or "numbers," playing in Harlem, raid was conducted last Friday upon an apartment at No. 507 Lenox avenue, at which time two persons found there were arrested and held bail for a hearing in the Washington Heights Court. Following the raid, information was given out to the pro- to the effect that an adding machine tabulating machine, about $3,000, cash, and hundreds of slips, such are used by "policy players" and "policy bankers," were found in the apartment. A police inspector was reported as having taken personal charge of the case and questioned those arrests at the West 135th street police station. It is also to be supposed that he questioned the two detectives who led the raid and made the arrests. ARRAIGNED Thursday in the Washington Heights Court before Magistrate Ewald, testimony was given by the detectives to the effect that no evidence was found which would lead them to suspect that the apartment was used as a headquarters for "policy bankers," and by witnesses to the effect that the three thousand or more dollars seized belonged to a West Indian society. Quite naturally, the two defendants were then dismissed. BUT WHY was the raid made in first place? And for what purpose were the machines taken out of the place put to, since it is not understood that the apartment was used as a business office? And what became of the hundreds of slips? What kind of slips were they and for what were they used? UNLIKE one of our contemporaries we are not now, nor have we ever waged a campaign against "policy" or "number". playing in Harlem, despite the fact that we believe this form of gambling to be extremely demoralizing upon the community. We have always maintained, and maintain now, that every "policy banker" of any consequence in the City of New York is known to the Police Department, and that the practice could be stamped on.

Aroused AIRPORTS AND AIRWAYS INCORPORATING ALBANY, Aug. 8.—Following close on the heels of Lindy's New York to Paris flight, and the increased interest in aviation generally, airports and airways are now incorporating in New York State, according to a report issued this week by Robert Moses, Secretary of State. Last month also brought about the incorporation of a considerable number of dairies. While the automobile has cuplanned the horse, the cow has yet to give away to any mechanical substitute. The number of almost overnight if the Police Department and city magistrates would cooperate in a sincere movement for its suppression, instead of making a show at suppression by squeezing the life out of the little fellows in the game and letting the big fellows slip through the net. Under these conditions crusades against the game make for more graft and more corruption. NOR CAN IT BE suspicioned that we refrained from publishing the story of the raid at No. 507 Lenox avenue because of friendship for a man believed to be a "numbers banker," because we do not permit friendships to interfere with the publication of what we consider news. We published the story of the raid; published what our paid reporters found out concerning it; and elsewhere in this issue will be found a story of the court hearing. BUT AGAIN WE ASK, why was the raid conducted in the first place? What action are the owners of the apartment going to take in the matter, since the detectives admitted on the witness stand that they were not armed with search warrants at the time the raid was conducted? What action is the inspector who was in charge of the case going to take against the two detectives who evidently told one story in the station house and another on the witness stand in court? Were political considerations brought to bear in the case? Was the hearing on the level? THE DEATH early Sunday morning of Major-General Leonard Wood removes from public life a man greatly admired by Negroes since the Spanish-American War, in which he and the late Theodore Roosevelt played an honorable part. SEVEN Mississippiians who pleaded guilty to conspiracy in connection with the driving of several Negroes out of Hazlehurst were fined $100 each and given jail sentences of thirty days, the sentences, of course, being suspended. NEWS ITEM: "It is strongly against the popular prejudice of this region (Franklin, La.) to have Negroes testify against white persons, especially women." LETTERS TO THE EDITOR "Answers" Dearth of Husbands To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Dear Sir: In her article, "A Dearth of Husbands," in The Amsterdam News of August 3, Amy. Jacques Garvey did not say a word about the gold-digging female or the woman who wants a husband only as a form of masculine protection. These two types are as much important for the "dearth of husbands" as anything else. In her article, "A Dearth of Husbands," in The Amsterdam News of August 3, Amy.Jacques Garvey did not say a word about the gold-digging female or the woman who wants a husband only as a form of masculine protection. These two types are as much responsible for the "dearth of husbands" as anything else. The tendency of about 55 per cent of the young women of today is for a life of ease after marriage. While they want to be wives, they have no desire to assume the duties of motherhood. After marriage they either spend all their husbands' money in riotous living while the husbands are working, or support some "cake eater" on the stily. After marriage some women want to lead the same life as before marriage. They want to do as they like and go where they please. What their husbands say makes no impression on the what ever, and if the husbands protest to often they will hear the usual line about women and her rights. Another reason for the "dearth of husbands" among colored women is that they expect too much of husbands. They are always asking for more than they know their husbands are able to provide and, when it is not forthcoming, they seek it elsewhere. This is not a defense for the "lounge lizard" or the "finale hopper" type of male; it is just a presentation of the other side of a subject of great importance. Yours respectfully.

The future is God's corbona to remove the stains of the past. Destroy initiative in a child by overmuch supervision and the worst possible harm is done him.

Colorful News "Movies" BY THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE A New Venture in Solving the Negro Problem IN AN article, "The Golden Rule in Race Relations," which appeared in the Literary Digest for July 23, 1921, we are told that the obstacles inherent in the race problem, and once believed to be unaugmentable, are vanishing under co-operative effort; and if there are places where injustice is practiced by the white man against his black brother, there are other places where the two live in peace." Who is not well acquainted with those "places where injustice is practiced by the white man against his black brother?" For do not these whole United States ring with such injustices, from the Canadian border to the Gulf of Mexico, and from the Atlantic to the Pacific shores? Though most prevalent in the South, this psychosis of Negro-mania is gradually infecting this republic in its entirety. Now what "of those places where the two races "live in peace?" Are we not most anxious to learn of them? For like angel's visits, they are indeed few and far between. Madison County, Tennessee. it cites as a good example of what is being accomplished under the auspices of this co-operative movement. At Jackson, the county seat, the State Conference of Social Work has decided that no program of community betterment is complete that does not include the whole population, white and black. Hence, in matters of housing, sanitation, street improvement and lighting, recreation, child welfare, education and court justice, the needs of the entire population, regardless of race, are considered. What is offered to one group is also given to the other. Surely this is a most unusual circumstance, especially in the South. Through the co-operation of the two races in marketing, the plan has been improved, resulting in greater profits; and banks have co-operated in adding colored farmers to improve the soil and crop raising. The success of these co-operative activities has been chiefly due to the interracial committees, who co-operate for the good of all, and according to their reports "no crimes have been committed in this county in years which would involve both races. In the courts of justice there are no reports of cases of injustice, and no discrimination has been practiced by the courts because of race or color. The colored people have a representative at the Bar, who says he receives absolute fairness, and justice is not withheld from him on account of color. In this state race co-operation as a "venture" has proven a success. Perhaps in the millennium there will be more of these Negro Utopias. The Boomerang AS THE dog which often turns and bites the hand that feeds it, so the southern white man who has nurtured and barbored mob rule and violence finds himself today the victim of his own beinous devices. When those who were maltreated were Negroes it was well enough, but when being a Nordic no longer spared the victim the South has has become aroused against the recent midnight fogging, and, in the words of Governor Graves, declares, "Flogging in Alabama must cease." A Georgia newspaper boldly admits that "that lach parties" in southern states have become so prevalent as to become a national scandal," and "the decency of the whole nation is shocked." It is indeed very strange that the graveness of a situation never dawns upon the Nordic as long as he and his own are not threatened, but as soon as violence imperils members of his own group it then "only breeds anarchy, and has no place in a civilized country," according to their papers. As long as the southern lach descended only upon black shoulders, little or no protestation was voiced by the press, but now "masked violence is a denial of democracy: a denial of love; a denial of faith; a denial of God." according to the Birmingham "Age Herald." The victims are not only just Narmes. After this long period of lawlessness through the South there seems to be a general awakening to the fact that such conduct must stop, "if it takes the militia of every inflicted and infested state to stop it." Never before has it been discovered by the southern courts that "the rule of might and of the strongest is the very reverse of our civilization and our society," as Judge Sutton recently expressed it. And so, like the bodmerang that returns from midair to the hand of the welder, mob violence, lawlessness and brutality have returned to torture, their creators and tolerators. What is to be the outcome of this gen- "Race Integrity" Law Jars "Best Families" "Race Integrity" Law Jars "Best Families" VIRGINIA'S "racial integrity" law, enacted in 1924, is making trouble for some of the "best families" of the state, according to a special despatch to the New York World. Richmond is now forced to establish a special school for fifty or more small children who have been barred from white schools on the ground that they have American Indian ancestry and their parents refuse to send them to Negro schools. Dr. W. A. Plecker, State Registrar of Vital Statistics, who was dismissed from a position he so white that no one would have thought them other than pure Caucasian. "Several of the families affected had been proud of their Indian blood until the racial integrity agitation disclosed beyond reasonable doubt that practically no Virginia Indian blood subsequent to 1800 remained free from a pronounced Negroid strain. "Indian reservations for more than 100 years furnished refuge for runaway slaves and hospitality to freed Negroes. The black and red races in most of Virginia became inextricably mixed. And inevitably the white mixed with the red and black to produce children with clear features, acquilline noses and straight Indian hair. "Many of these children became handsome men and beautiful women. They left the reservation and came to the city years ago. Their children were more white than they. And the children of the third and fourth generation took their places with the whites and, in many cases, have become valuable citizens with considerable property. "Some of these families will send their children to private schools in the North, determined that they shall keep their status as Caucasians. The Richmond School Board, with the help of the State Board of Education, is to establish a special school for the others in September. There are enough of them to establish a little borderline colony composed of people neither white, red nor black." John Henry MAN. STEEL DRIVER OR MYTH? shown in Negro songs lately old song known as John heard of John Henry, the The story is that he was driver that ever lived. It is of the Big Bend Tunnel he outdrilled it, but dropped is hand." THE great interest being shown in Negro songs lately calls to mind that grand old song known as John Henry. Who has not heard of John Henry, the famous Negro steel driver? The story is that he was about the most powerful steel driver that ever lived. It is said that during the building of the Big Bend Tunnel he competed with a steam drill, outdrilled it, but dropped dead "with the hammer in his hand." Is this a true story, or is it just an interesting tale that Negro workmen have made up? It all sounds quite possible, but did it really happen? Some people who have investigated this legend say that John Henry was only a myth, an imaginary character invented by Negro steel drivers. Others say that John Henry was a real man, that he did drive against the steam drill, and that he really did beat it and drop dead with the hammer in his hand. Among those who are trying to find out the truth about John Henry is Professor G. B. Johnson of the University of North Carolina. Mr. Johnson is collecting songs and stories about John Henry from all over the nation, and later on he is going to put all of these in a book about John Henry. He says, "I am inclined to think that the story about John Henry is a true story, but, of course, I would rather have definite proof that it is true." Mr. Johnson would like to hear from anyone who knows a song about John Henry or who can tell him anything about the origin of the song. He is especially anxious to find an old printed copy of the original John Henry song, and will pay a good price for such a copy. He can be addressed at Box 652, Chapel Hill, N. C.

The Drama Hensley Winfield and Albert Patrick, general manager of Mr. Winfield's Art Theatre in Yonkers, will be seen in Kathleen Kirkwood's intimate revue at the Triangle Theatre for the rest of the summer season. In this new edition of "Bare Facts," Mr. Winfield will have a unique opportunity to display a new form of dance composition. This will be prior to his production of O'Neill's "Emperor Jones," which he is producing in the fall at his theatre in Yonkers.

Plecker, State Registrar of Vital Statistics, who was dismissed from a position he held under the U. S. Department of Labor after complaint had been made of his anti-Negro propaganda by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is backing the opinion of the state authorities that confession of Indian ancestry in Virginia is equivalent to admission of Negro ancestry. The World's despair continues: "Families with a noticeable strain of Negro flood first were barred from the white schools. In many cases it was necessary to eject children who had almost completed their education in the white public school—sons and daughters of parents who always had considered themselves white." "Parents of such children had no choice but to send them to Negro schools. Only a few of them did so. The others kept their boys and girls at home, trying vainly to explain why. Embarrassment involved a score of families and gave Richmond a bitter lesson in miscegenation. "The parents besieged the school authorities in their misery and won their complete sympathy. But the city school board could do nothing for them. And when a desperate mother charged favoritism and informed upon her brothers and sisters and cousins, the authorities were forced to eject their children also from the white school. Some of the children, shown by records to have Negro blood, were Destiny. Oh, so vast and boundless.

FRANCIS ELLEN WATKINS HARPER was born of free parents in Baltimore, Md., in 1825. Her uncle, the Rev. William Watkins, who kept a school for free Negro children, taught her to read and write. She removed in 1851 to Ohio, where she began teaching, later removing to Little York, Pa., where she became acquainted with the workings of the "Underground Railroad." In 1854 she started her career as a lecturer, against the inhumane institution of slavery. In 1860 she was married to Fenton Harper of Cincinnati. "Poems on Miscellaneous Subjects" appeared in 1854, prefaced by William Lloyd Garrison. More than 10,000 copies of her books were distributed throughout the United States and Canada. Mrs. Hemans, Longfellow, Cowper and Whittier were her models. Mrs. Harper was certainly a prolific writer. Her best known prose work, "Iola Leroy or Shadows Uplifted," met with much approbation from the leading writers of her time. It became immediately a success and brought the author much popularity. Her poetry is beauty; it is also authentic drama, true, poignant, striking into the depths of humanity. She wrote life, not about James Madison Bell Poet (1826-?) JAMES MADISON BEL Ohio, in 1826.

JAMES MADISON BELL was born in Gallipolis, Ohio, in 1826. In 1842 his family removed to Cincinnati, where he learned the plasterer's trade. He followed his trade by day and studied at nights, and soon became intensely interested in the anti-slavery movement while he lived in Cincinnati. In 1954 he removed to Canada and resided there until 1860, when he again returned to the United States. Bell's language is clear, simple and refined. His tone is broad and sympathetic. A peculiar warmth of human understanding permeates his writing. His poems exhibit Byronic influence. Of liberty he sings: O Liberty, what charm so great! One radiant smile, one look of thine Can change the drooping bondsman's fate. But in thy glorious goings forth Be thy benign object man. The poetry of Bell is the poetry of the soul of a man that was quickened to human understanding by religious revelations. In his soul there was a limitless amount of beauty that the moment it found utterance gave wings to things inanimate. His all-responding soul was like a many-strined instrument and Ride onward, in thy charlot ride, Thou peerless queen; ride on, ride on— With Truth and Justice by thy side— Nor linger in our bleeding south, Nor domicile with race or clan; THE POET Poems submitted for publication be returned unless accompanied envelope. Cogitations AND oft do I in pensive mood Away from friends select to brood; When burdens heavy fill my breast, And outward calm veils by unrest— 'Tis then I scan my youthful dreams, 'Tis then I see hope's radiant beams Eclipsed, but to one meagre ray, And thus give senblance to doom's day. Through vales of yesterday I roam To see again the child at home, The old schoolmaster's birch recall, Which was administered to all. Once more I feel that boyish fear As if his voice again I hear; Once more I see his mourning face, From which the day's events I'd trace. But with the closing of the day, My class room fears were drowned in play; No thoughts of problems me molest, From out the childlike, peaceful rest. Small griefs with time have taken wings, And face to face with graver things Constrained am I to meet and fight That which I would not, if I might Old Nick, with all his store of wit, Has shown me oft why I should quit; His reasons are so plainly true, So I decided that to do. "For you," said Nick, "I have a plan, See how I've placed young Dandy Dan? Hear me, my lad, for there's your chance, To reap your harvest in the dance." A living picture then he drew, For he could do illusions, too. I saw myself, idol of fame, In flickering lights, saw big my name. Alone I wandered down the street. An old friend thus I chanced to meet: He seized me by the hand and said, "My lad, I hope you're going ahead." Ashamed, I answered, "Reverend sir, Conditions are not as they were, The drawbacks far exceed your age. Now, I'm resolved to try the stage." Thru many a block in silence passed. And then that old friend spoke at last. He chided me in a soothing strain. And found me for myself again. By R. THEO. GIBSON. KINS HARPER was born of ore, Md., in 1825.
