Belief That Police Were About to Raid Parlor Social Club Prompts Leap From Fourth Floor Man Gets Fatal Stab.
Two tragedies marked the "good time had by all" at the Parlor Social Club, 101 West 130th street, early Sunday morning.
Ida Fuller, 35, 143 West 138th street, met her death about 3 o'clock when she fell from the fourth floor fire escape. Mrs. Fuller had been attending the party, and when someone knocked on the door it was thought the place was being raided. Mrs. Fuller, together with a number of others, sought to escape through the windows and down the fire escape. She fell almost to instant death. Dr. Wilkinson arrived from Harlem Hospital and pronounced her dead.
Detective Winterhalter of the West 135th Street Station is investigating the case.
George Sanders, 30, 122 West 129th street, was stabbed to death about 2 o'clock by one of two men who attacked him as he was leaving the party.
William Jackson, of the latter address, was with him when two men approached him and exclaimed, "There he is!" Whereupon one of them lunged a knife into the left side of his chest. They escaped, Sanders dropped to the sidewalk, unconscious.

Actor's Case to Go to Grand Jury
Daniel Small Tells Magistrate He Was Attacked by Five Men.
Daniel Small, 27, 707 St. Nicholas avenue, of the dancing team of Small and Mayse, who recently closed a successful week at Keith's Palace, was given a hearing Friday before Magistrate McKiniry in West Farms Court on a charge of felonious assault. Ball at $2,500 was continued for a Grand Jury hearing.
On the night of Aug. 5 a motor car driven by Al Hixon, manager of Pelham Heath Inn, in company with John Jones, assistant manager of the Inn, and three others, humped into the rear of Small's car, which was standing in front of the Royal Theatre.
The men drove off without investigating the damage and Small pursued and questioned them. Seeing that he was alone, Small testified, Jones struck him in the face, then another struck him, and he soon found himself being beaten by all five of them, whom he said were drunk.
Jones was stabbed during the uneven tracas. When a policeman arrived he found the men beating him; the patrolman so testified.
Small declares that Jones has offered him from $900 to $2,000 to settle out of court, but he prefers to have the matter go before the Grand Jury.

PULLMAN B. S. C. P. OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED BY BOARD
Becomes First Labor Organization of Negro Workers on National Scale — Organizer Crosswaith Issues Statement.
Word that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters has been accorded official recognition by the United States Board of Mediation was received at the headquarters of the union, 2311 Seventh avenue. Monday, in a telegram from A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the brotherhood. Mr. Randolph is now in Chicago where he has been representing the union before the railroad board.
The porters' union is the first labor organization of Negro workers on a national scale, and the disposition of its case by the Federal Board has been eagerly awaited in trade union, as well as Negro, circles.
Frank Crosswaith, organizer of the union, declared the decision of the Board in sending the dispute with the Pullman Company to arbitration constitutes a great victory for his organization. Mr. Crosswaith said:
"Arbitration means recognition of the brotherhood as a legitimate
De Witt Clinton High Student's Case Dismissed
The plaintiff failing to appear after several adjournments of the case, William Groves, 17, a graduate of the De Witt Clinton High School, 103 West 141st street, was dismissed in Harlem Court Monday, after he had been arraigned on a charge of burglary. Circumstantial evidence is said to have caused the youth's arrest, following a tenant's statement that she saw a man answering Groves' description leaving 58 East 129th street with a suitcase. Groves had been sent to that address to repair an electric bell at the apartment of William Clemons, who charged that Groves stole a suitcase and clothing valued at $125. Groves said he repaired the pushbutton from the outside, never entering the apartment. The old button that he removed was found inside the apartment, which made it "look bad" for him. Clemons has changed his address and cannot be located.
NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, AUG. 17, 1927
TUMBLES FROM WINDOW TO DEATH ON PAVEMENT
When George Brown, 32, 68 West 142d street, came home partially intoxicated, it is said, about four o'clock Sunday morning, he took off his clothes and sat in the window. During his wife's absence of a few moments from the room he lost his balance and fell out the window, dying almost the instant he struck the sidewalk. When Mrs. Brown returned to the room she beheld the horrible sight of her husband lying in a pool of blood on the pavement. Dr. Wilkinson was summoned from Harlem Hospital by Patrolman Roche of the West 135th street station, and the man was pronounced dead. Medical Examiner J. A. Gun soon arrived and gave the family permission to move the body upstairs. The names of the wife, Sadie Brown, and Laura Johnson and Florence Walker, who live in the apartment, were given as witnesses.
White Patrolman Accepted Bribe
Suspension From Providence Police Force Follows.
PROVIDENCE, R. I., Aug. 15. Patrolman James J. Corley, white, picked out a Tartar when he held up Arthur J. Black, of 160 Cranston street, for a bribe. As a result, he was suspended from the force.
Mr. Black, a former petty officer in the navy, protested when he found a yellow tag on his car, parked in Exchange place, signifying that he had stayed over the limit. The officer thought otherwise, then, according to Mr. Black, he added: "Of course I'm not out here for my health."
"I'll see you Monday," Mr. Black assured the policeman, which was satisfactory.
In the meantime, Mr. Black reported the incident to headquarters and was given a marked bill to present to Corley. Two sergeants were detailed to enter the rear of the postoffice to observe the transaction.
Corley was caught red-handed with the marked money and admitted his guilt. Superintendent William F. O'Neal's suspension of the officer was upheld by the Board of Police Commissioners.
3 MEN LOITER NEAR FULLER HOME; JAILED
BOSTON, Aug. 15—Three men arrested as suspicious persons were held as vagrants by Municipal Judge Dowe Friday because they could not satisfy him as to why they were loitering in the vicinity of Gov. Fuller's home on Beacon street.
Two of them gave the names of James White and Thomas Shannon, white, saying they lived at addresses in the West End. white George S. Beckia said he lived at an address in the South End.
White and Shannon were held in $300 each until Wednesday, and Beckia was held in $500 until the same day.
MOTHER GIVES LIE TO REPORT SHE TIED UP HER CHILD
MOTHER GIVES LIE TO REPORT SHE TIED UP HER CHILD
Claims That Malicious Neighbors Fabricated Story of Cruelty — To Be Heard in Children's Court Today.
Giving the lie to what she brands as false reports, Mrs. Mary Palma, who lived at 136 West 131st street, told a reporter "the true story" of the alleged binding and blindfolding of her five-year-old daughter, Anita, the early part of last week.
Neighbors reported to the Children's Society that she was cruel to the child and Agent Joseph Boyer called at the house during the mother's absence and found Anita seated on a stool, her hands bound to the bed with tape, her legs tied to the bed with a rope and her eyes bandaged by two handkerchiefs, he said. The child was taken to the Society's home.
The case was heard by Justice Samuel Levy in Children's Court on Tuesday of last week, and was adjourned until today. Mrs. Palma was represented by Bertram Manne, a Brooklyn lawyer. At the hearing Mrs. Palma is reported to have told the court that she tied (Continued on Page 4.)

MYSTERY CREEPS INTO DISMISSAL OF OFFICER ARMSTEAD
Hinted That His Failure to Arrest a Police Inspector's Kin May Have Had Something to Do With It.
Found guilty of six departmental charges in one day, Patrolman Philip Armstead, of the West 135th street station, was dismissed from the police force last week by Commissioner Warren.
During his seven years in the Police Department, Armstead is said to have chalked up nearly seventy complaints against himself, fifty-three of which resulted in convictions.
Absent from inspection, absent from outgoing roll call, improper patrol, absent from reserve duty, failure to signal as directed, and lateness are among the various charges. When his case came up, Armstead was sixteen minutes late at the trial room.
In certain quarters, however, it is believed that this amiable copper lost his job because of his failure to make an arrest involving the conduct of a police inspector's nephew.
The story goes that the nephew came to Harlem to have a good time among colored women, but paid a little more for it than he anticipated; he was robbed.
To give the situation a less pleasing garment, Armstead was "bustod" before the charge of "refusal to make an arrest" was made.
After being told to count the complaints himself, Armstead asked for a final chance, but of no avail.
When he was appointed, Armstead was called a perfect specimen and was highly endorsed by the leading citizens of the Flushing district, from which he came.
Firebug Starts Seven Dumbwaiter Fires
Seven fires within five hours was the record for the tenement house occupied by forty families, located at 242 West 148th street, Sunday. Horace Mann, janitor, extinguished two of the blazes. After the fifth blaze Detective Sergeant Battle and Detective Moore of the West 135th street station visited the tenement to conduct an investigation. They arrested a suspect who was loitering there. While he was being question at the station house, the janitor reported two more fires by phone, adding that he had put them on himself. The suspect was immediately released. All the fires originated in the dumbwaiter, which wasn't so dumb. The first fire was discovered by Patrolman Scott, and fifteen minutes after the last fireman had left they were called to put out the second fire. No one was injured. The police believe that a firebug fired the dumbwaiter.

PRETTY SPANISH GIRL OF EIGHTEEN TO RELATE STORY
Pretty Emily Zamot, 18-year-old Spanish beauty, for whose love Earl Battice is believed to have brutally murdered his wife, will relate her story to Judge Anderson and a jury in the U. S. Court today.
Prosecution Holds That Ship's Cook Killed Wife so He Could Marry Emily Zamot—Captain and Engineer Tell of Slaying.
The sensational murder story of the four-masted schooner Kingsway was heard from the lips of Captain Fred E. Lawry himself last week in the United States District Court where Earl Leo Battice, ship's cook, was placed on trial for his life, charged with slashing the throat of his wife. Lucia, and cutting her nineteen times, causing her death at sea seven days later.
The jurors were examined last Wednesday and Thursday, and U. S. Attorney Tuttle opened the government's prosecution by the presentation of Battice's confession. Defense Attorney Carruthers Ewing, 111 Broadway, vigorously cross-examined Attorney Tuttle, and sought to rule out Battice's confession, which was finally admitted in evidence.
Captain Lawry, 65, from Bangor, Maine, typical Yankee skipper, has followed the sea since boyhood, and for thirty years has been a master mariner, like his father and grunddad. On February 5, the night of the ship's tragedy, Captain Lawry said he had occasion to go to the storeroom for some bread. and as he approached he heard Lucia screaming, "Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
He found the woman lying in a pool of blood, with a large gap in her throat as her head lay back upon the floor. He took her to the forecastle, cut off her clothing and examined her, and administered first aid. Returning to the storeroom, he saw Battice passing through the dining room adjoining. "I did it; lock me up." Battice is said to have told him. Battice was put in irons but escaped and dived into the sea, but begged to be

rescued when he was menaced by sharks.
The cook's wife had shipped with him from San Juan, Porto Rico, and was hired as stewardess at $1 a month, reducing Battice's salary to $89; as it was unlawful to carry passengers.
As the ship sailed out of the harbor a comely Spanish miss of eighteen years came alongside and begged to be taken aboard. She was Emily Zamot, said to be Battice's sweetheart, whom Battice is said to have promised to take on the trip with him. Besides "the girl he left behind," Battice also left five children. Captain Lawry identified Miss Zamot in court.
Attorney Ewing sought to show that the purpose of Battice's trip was to get money together to take

Sturges Battery Company Has Always Given Negro Equal Opportunity
Began With Employment of I. Newton Braithwaite as Stenographer Years Ago—Negro in Charge of Several Departments.
Some fifteen years ago a white man received a letter in reply to an advertisement which he had inserted in the daily press for a stenographer, which opened with the following remarkable sentence: "I am a stenographer, and because I am also a colored man, I have found it impossible to obtain work as such." The white man, Norman D. Sturges, replied to the applicant, inviting him to come to his factory, which was then located at No. 427 West Fiftieth street, New York City.
The applicant was I. Newton Braithwaite, principal of the commercial school which bears his name.
After a test as to his fitness. Braithwaite was employed as stenographer by the Sturges Battery Co. and worked for more than a year. His employer was so pleased with him that he determined then and there that whenever possible he would employ Negro help. Soon after the factory expanded and removed to Brooklyn.
Pressing orders to be filled necessitated more factory hands; the war, with its rush and haste, placed a high premium upon a sound, well-developed battery, and this in turn gave Mr. Sturges an opportunity to place more men of color in his employ.
He was acquainted with the Negro branch of the Y. M. C. A., and years before had obtained a most efficient man through that institution. Consequently, he now turned to the employment secretary with the request that he supply him with a few men to do skilled work. The result is that today the firm employs twelve Negroes, who assist in the production of the famous Sturges multiple battery. To walk into the factory at Van Wyck avenue, Jamalca. L. L., and see these men at work at their various skilled tasks is certainly encouraging.
In the assembling room, engaged in the task of assembling the unfinished battery, is found Clarence E. Jones, the firm's oldest Negro employee in point of service, having been connected with the firm since 1912. Mr. Jones, who said that he had had only two positions

After a year's time, the arrest of Malvin Taylor, 34, a painter, 2394 Seventh avenue, and James Allen, 29, a painter, 2704 Eighth avenue, is believed by the police to clear up the mystery of so many missing checks from the malls downtown.

Allen was denied bail, pending a further hearing.
It was the men's practice, the police said, to steal the checks downtown and bring them to Harlem to have them cashed or to pay for merchandise. The pair was arrested by Detective Flinter of the West 135th Street Station. Taylor attempted to cash a check drawn on the Louisville National Bank for $143, bearing the forged signature of Mattie D. Israel, white, 251 West Eighty-first street. The check was offered to Monrel Fernands, white, 426 Lenox avenue, who became suspicious and called the police and had Taylor arrested.
Allen was apprehended when he offered a check for $147.50, drawn on the Broad Street National Bank of Red Bank, N. J., to Ben Levy, white, 448 Lenox avenue. The forged name of Mary Elinor (Kalgallen), dressmaker. 78 West Fifty-fifth street, appeared thereon. In the arrest of Allen, the circumstances were the same as of Taylor.

LINE STOPS RESTAURANT SEGREGATION IN MINN.
The Twin-City Herald, published in Minneapolis-St. Paul, reports effective action by the local N. A. A. C. P. to stop attempted segregation in a restaurant. The proprietor of the restaurant in deference to the wishes of an excavating crew, whose members hailed from the South, barred colored men from his place and even placed a sign in his window announcing that he would not serve colored people.
Dr. M. W. Judy of the executive board of the local N. A. A. C. P. noticed the sign and, failing to convince the restaurant keeper that he ought to remove it, called upon the Mayor. The Mayor, after consulting with the chief of police, ordered the segregation sign removed on pain of having the restaurant license revoked. The local N. A. A. C. P. is planning to investigate the matter further.

Prof. W. A. Aery, head of the Teachers' Training School of Hampton, Va., and Max Yergan, International Y. M. C. A., Secretary to Africa, were principal speakers on the first night's program. The subject of Prof. Aery's address was "The Technique of Changing Public Opinion." He told of race relations committees on which he had served, and of his travels with the late Booker T. Washington and Major Moton throughout the South. He expressed the idea that it was in the continuous coming together of the two groups that a better understanding could be had. He spoke also of the friendly relations which are existing among white and Negro students of the South, as a result of the interracial student conferences which are being held throughout the country.
Max Yergan told of his missionary work in Africa, of the unique tribal organizations among the Africans, and of the great possibilities that are ahead of this South African group. He told the group not to look upon the Africans as too inferior a race, but as a race that is rapidly coming into its own. Narayan Paruchkar, a Hindu, local lecturer for the Board of Education, and Charles S. Johnson were principal speakers on the second night's program.
Mr. Purulekar, speaking on "Eastern vs. Western Civilization," outlined the easterner's view of the western civilization. He pointed out the fact that the westerner is chiefly interested in power in politics, profit in business, and prestige in international relations. He showed that these, as major interests, had produced three types of conflict, viz. the conflict between man and machine, the conflict between science and religion, and the conflict between the individual and the family.
The problems resulting from these forms of conflict on a large scale are the problems of democracy versus dictatorship, nationalism versus internationalism, and race versus race. He said that some of the manifestations of these conflicts in the East, the loss of direct personal relations, and the consequent failure of the West to produce strong personal leaders like Christ, Buddha, and Gandh. "This," he said, "is the result of the western tendency to mechanize and commercialize all processes and values."
Mr. Johnson, speaking on "The Present State of Public Opinion Toward the Negro," pointed out the fact that in order to deal with public opinion as a phenomenon it must be dissected. In proceeding to analyze the present state of public opinion toward the Negro, he said that there are certain definitely formed concepts regarding the Negro which have all of the characteristics of cardinal beliefs and are primary in the mental picture of the Negro. These are beliefs concerning Negro mentality which various pseudo-scientific reports have attempted to "prove," beliefs concerning Negro morality, compounded accusations, beliefs concerning Negro criminality, and beliefs regarding racial temperaments and instincts.

en, 27, owner of the Garford Trucking Company, 50 Main street, South River, N. J., whose car had been commandered by Patrolman Michael Ledden, of the West Sixty-eighth street station, to chase Morton. Thelma Batts, 20, 2560 Eighth avenue, a passenger in the Locomobile roadster which the police say was stolen Thursday from Gladys Isaacson, white, 1069 Clinton avenue, Newark, N. J., was held as a material witness.
Patrolman Ledden saw the roadster sideswipe an "L" pillar as it recklessly sped north on Columbus avenue at 59th street. Jumping on the running board of Goldman's car, Ledden ordered him to give chase.
Paul Friedmann, white, 1774 Sixty-sixth street, Brooklyn, and Lucien Baston, colored, 239 West 59th street, and Julius Galef, white, a jeweler's mechanic, S East 107th street, were passengers in Golden's car.
According to Galef, Golden hastated when Ledden opened fire on the seeing auto, "Keep on! Keep going!" Galef said the patrolman commanded.
The first shot was fired at Sixteenth street, and as the car turned west at full speed at Sixteenth street, almost crashing into a building, Ledden fired two more shots. Galef and Ledden declare that Morton then twisted round in his seat and fired back. Golden stumped at the wheel and Galef jammed on the brakes. Golden was dead, shot through the chest, the bullet lodging in his back. An ambulance was called and Golden was rushed to the Roosevelt hospital, but too late.
Patrolman Robert Turner of the West Sixty-eighth station, having heard the shots, commandeered a taxicab and continued the chase, firing his gun in the air. Patrolman Walter Klein of the same station joined the chase. At Fifty-ninth street and West End avenue the fugitive car halted, and the occupants jumped out and ran into a cellar at 330 West Fifty-ninth street. Morton and Miss Batts were arrested:
Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Thomas A. Gonzales examined the bullet embedded in the muscles of the left side of Goldman's back, and found it to be a flattened .35 calibre bullet, which he believed was fired from a policeman's service revolver.
The fact that the bullet was flattened and that it had struck no bones in passing through Goldman's body, led Dr. Gonzales to state that it had evidently been fired from a policeman's revolver and had killed Goldman when it struck an L" pillar and rebounded. The medical examiner's findings are given added weight when it is known that Patrolman Ledden was reluctant to go along immediately after Goldman was shot. "You got us into this trouble," Galef told Ledden, "and you'll have to get us out of it."

representative of the porters. The company fought such a step bitterly. However, we are happy to learn that the Board has overruled the company and has sent the case to arbitration.
"All of the elaborate and extensive research made by the Labor Bureau, showing the actual conditions under which the porters work, the wages they receive, the amount of tips received monthly by the average porter, the total occupational expense of each porter, the number of hours and the total mileage covered by the porter during the 400-hour work month will come before the arbitration.
Also the actual wage increase granted the porters since their employment by the Pullman Company some fifty-nine years ago will be presented to the Board of Arbitration. A systematic comparison between the work and wages of the porters and the other railroad workers will also be submitted."
Mr. Crosswath explained that during mediation the attorneys of the brotherhood could not legally appear and argue the organization's case. Before the Board of Arbitration, however, the full legal battery of the brotherhood will be called into action. The chief legal advisor of the brotherhood is Donald R. Richberg, co-author of the Watson-Parker Act which created the Boards of Mediation and Arbitration. Associated with him are Henry T. Hunt, former member of the old U. S.

During a recent interview, however, Mrs. Palma vehemently denied ever tying the child, and states that, instead, Anita was found sitting on the bed when the S. P. C. c agent came in. Jealous and malicious neighbors in the same flat had fabricated many lies, and picked their chance to call the agent during her absence, she said.
She said she had not gone out to work since her marriage and this was corroborated by Mr. Palma. Proof of the existence of sympathy and an understanding heart in "this cruel world" came from Mrs. Adea Wilson, 37 Raymond street, South Norwalk, Conn., the mother of four children. Upon reading of Mrs. Palma's case in the daily papers, Mrs. Wilson wrote her, offering to care for Anita and give her a home.

Kingsway Cook Still on Trial
his wife and children home to Guitport, Mass. He said the slaying of the wife occurred when Battie was driven into a mad frenzy by Waldemar Karl Badke, German donkey engineer, who the attorney said bullied the cook and alienated the affections of his wife. Battie had complained to the captain about Badke following his wife in the gallery, and he was told to scald him, it was testified. "Badke was a bad fellow, and could not be controlled unless you killed him. He had me at a disadvantage because the crew was against me," Captain Lawry declared. "He practically bossed the shim."
Mrs. Battles could not talk, said Captain Lawry, but often wrote with pencil and paper. The only record he kept was the note she scrawled before she died. It read: "this about the chief (meaning Badke), and I it is that my husband is the one cause I did like him and use to go and speak with him to the window Leo he took me the first time and told me not to speak but he encouraged me to go with him and fit (U. S. Attorney Minter said the word was "fix") me where to do that just because he had this girl in p. r. (Porto Rico) he wanted to get rid of me."
Attorney Ewing called it an expression of opinion and should not
FIVE
be accepted. As the defense and prosecution could not agree on whether the word "was" was "df" (a Southern expression for "fought") or "dx", Judge Harry B. Anderson would not permit the letter to be admitted in evidence. The jury was excused while the wife's dying statement was being read.
"I have two wives; one I love, and one I'm married to." This the statement Battice is said to have made to Badka, the German alleged trouble maker.
Badka, who has been confined in the Tumbe Prison as a material witness to the sea horror, took the stand Monday and related how Mrs. Battice had fallen in love with him and sought his attention, scoring all others for him.
"My wife gets crazy." Battice is said to have told him. "She's crying for you. She wants to jump overboard. I don't know what to do."
He accepted the woman's attention, Battice said, at the instigation of her husband, whom he said arranged their secret meetings. "Then Mrs. Battice came to the storeroom," the German narrated. "Battice said he would watch outside. Soon he returned and said to watch out that no one saw us leaving the room."
The next move in the sea drama differs from that told by Captain Lawry, who said he did not see Battice slash his wife, but run to the storeroom when he heard her scream.
The captain appeared at one door of the stovetron just as he ran out the other door when Battice entered. Badke said, but swears that by the light of the captain's flashlight he saw the cook slash his wife's throat. U. S. Attorneys Tuttle, Simpson and Mintzer are completely baffled concerning Battice's real motive for killing his wife. The accused man has remained unmoved throughout the entire proceedings.

Alhambra Theatre Will Open Under New Policy Monday, August 22
Troubadours, With Well-Known Performers, Underlined for First Showing—House Will Use Colored Help Throughout, With Negro Motion Picture Operators in the Booth—Al Watts to Be Stage Manager.
The New Alhambra will throw open its doors to the public the coming Monday in another bid for colored patronage, and extensive plans are being pushed to make the house a success. Unlike the previous efforts made some time ago, we have been informed that those behind the venture are in a better financial position to carry through their ideas and give this section of Harlem the amusement which it apparently craves.
The Alhambra Theatre has been forced, to pass through many stormy periods in the past, but so did the Lafayette, and if one is to judge by the large number of people making Seventh avenue their playground at the present time, we see no reason why the Alhambra people of the present should not entertain a hope of hitting upon the right thing to meet the wants of a people who are far from being too exacting in their demands.
A company of fifty, which will include some of the most widely know performers, will be the opening attraction next week. The management of the house is fully alive to the times and made the assertion that, while they are going to do their very best, they hope the public will realize that they intend to secure the best in musical comedies and big revues as entertainment, regardless of the plane on which the initial offering will make its bow.
being at least we are forced to bid welcome to this new venture, which we hope will turn out to be a success.
Bathing Beauty
Packs Punch
The policy will also include the running of the best pictures to be secured, and the prices will be in reach of all. A stock company will be retained to put on the shows, which, we are informed, will not mean that the same faces will prevail at all times. With its added population and the refusal of many night clubs in the community to treat with any consideration many of our people, the Alhambra will be another outlet which we have been enthusiastically informed will be here to stay.
The New Alhambra is ideally located; our population is spreading beyond the limits laid out by the self-appointed "saviors of white supremacy" of the early days; the theatre is well appointed, and with the features we have been assured will be in order, that section of the city should be enlivened with the coming of a management which seems to be fully alive to certain conditions existing here. Al Watts, an old favorite, will be in charge of the stage and Negro motion picture operators will be in the booth. Colored employees will be placed all over the house and for the time

Miss Martha Elwell, white, weighs only 105 pounds, but she can fight like a Jack McVey. She proved that early last Tuesday by knocking out a man who annoyed her as she reached her home. 127 Letters place. Brooklyn, at 1 a.m.
The defeated man is Jack Douglas, 35, who weighs 185 pounds. His address for the past five days was the workhouse.
Miss Elwell is a dancer in the Broadway Follies and violinist with an act on the Keith Circuit. She was also an entrant in the Brooklyn Bathing Beauty Contest.
As she stepped from her roadster in front of her home Tuesday morning she was accosted by Douglas, who blocked her path.
Although he blocked her path, he failed to block the blow which Miss Elwell threw in his direction

search of his house revealed a .32 caliber revolver hidden behind a trunk. He was arraigned before Magistrate Dale in Flatbush Court the next morning. Douglas pleaded guilty to a charge of disorderly conduct and was sentenced to five days in the workhouse. He was held in $1,000 bail for Special Sessions on the revolver charge.
Many Features at the Savoy
Full Week of Entertainment at Popular Harlem Resort.
The Savoy Ballroom has been preparing for many weeks to take care of the thousands of visitors from all over the country who are expected in Harlem next week to attend the Elks' convention.
On Monday a mardi gras carnival will take place, alive with interest, soft lights and dreamy music lending their enchantment to a merry revel of old and young folks scurrying lither and thither to see and hear all the exciting attractions taking place.
On Tuesday, regularly Savoy's clown night, the program will be augmented to include a new group of clowns who will entertain the crowds with new and funnier antics than heretofore, and that is saying a lot, for the Savoy's friends recall with a chuckle the screamingly funny doings that occur every Tuesday night.
On Thursday comes the vaudeville show in addition to all the other attractions. Six big headline acts will do their stuff. Friday is club night, when all good fellows get together and talk over old times, new times and good times—when friends meet in an environment second to none in town.
Of course, Saturday night is the big night of the week. With the wonderful bathing beauty contest taking place, with twoscore of the most beautiful girls in town parading before you, striving to win the cash prizes, there is no wonder Saturday is, by far, the most popular night at the Savoy.
With the Sunday dance beginning at 3 P. M., and continuing to 2 A. M., making 11 hours of continuous dancing for one admission, there is good reason why so many like to make Sunday their day of pleasure.
There is no cover charge at the Savoy, only one small admission price which covers everything.
"Love Thrill," With Laura La Plante, Coming to Roosevelt
Tom Moore and Bryant Washburn Are Featured Players in Comedy-Drama
What promises to be a highly amusing and entertaining picture will be on tap at the Rosevelt Theatre here Saturday. Sunday and Monday. The picture is "The Love Thrill." a light comedy with Laura La Plante in the starring role and an excellent cast in support.
The picture makes no pretense of being anything but frothy and fast-moving comedy and Miss La Plante's host of fans elsewhere have declared it is one of her most amusing pictures.
"The Love Thrill" is Miss La Plante's third picture since Universal, prompted by the tremendous growth of her popularity, advanced her to starring position. The others, "Her Big Night" and "Butterflies in the Rain," are now establishing extraordinary records wherever they are shown. Millard Webb directed "The Love Thrill." The large support-

"Painting Town," Laugh Surprise, Next at the Douglas
Patsy Ruth Miller and Glenn Tryon are featured in the all-star cast of "Painting the Town," a Universal-Jewel-William James Craft production, which will be shown beginning Saturday at the Douglas Theatre.
This convulsive force has occasioned a small sensation in the industry, for it brings out, in addition to the well-known beauty and charm of Miss Miller, an astonishing young comedian who has not hitherto been looked upon as star material. In "Painting the Town" (tlena Tryon made the projection room audiences laugh so loud at Universal City that Carl Laemmle, president of the company, hastened to offer him a five-year contract, which of course he accepted.
Max Spiro, manager of the Douglas Theatre, states that he considers himself fortunate in having been able to secure this picture for early showing, for as soon as it was shown in New York to invited audiences consisting of critics and theatre managers it was acclimated as a great surprise force and booked by the theatre managers who spoke first. Among others, S. L. Rothafel, manager of the Roxy, the largest theatre in the world, selected it to head his program.

And So It Came to Pass That Mrs. Garvey Did Bring a Sensation
And So It Came to Pass That Mrs. Garvey Did Bring a Sensation
With Sam Manning Providing the Best Comedy of the Year at the Lafayette Theatre, Assisted by Emmett Anthony and Others.
outdoing even the glowing advance notices, Mrs. Marcus Curvey's musical comedy, "Brown Sugar," opened to a packed house at the Lafayette on Monday and was accorded a reception which exceeded any given to any show in the past year. Suni Manning and Emmett Anthony provided comedy which kept the audience in a constant uproar, sixteen beautiful girls went through dance after dance that brought calls for encore after encore, and several well known entertainers went through their "specialties" with a snap that helped the audience enjoy the finest bit of entertainment that has been staged in Harlem in many months.

Mr. Miller Will Present "Bad Habits of 1928" at the Lafayette Theatre Week of August 29. He Is Also Planning to Enter the Coming Theatrical Season With Four Shows. Which Are Under Course of Construction at the Present Time.
"Brown Sugar is from per. of Mrs Marcia Carvey and Sam Manning. It is a splendidly-written story of an ambitious American father who wants his beautiful daughter to marry a Prince. The girl he loves, is deeply in love with someone else and dares the parental wrath to be with the man of her choice. The father and the "Indian Prince," whom he wants her to marry, hire two men to kidnap the girl and bring her to India in a trunk. The man (Manning and Anthony) do this and go through the most riotous adventures bringing the trunk through the streets of the city and on board a ship bound for India. When they reach India, they visit a fortune teller who warns them that the Prince is a bad man and that their delights with him will lead to disaster. They then detourne to "Brown cross" the Prince. Their efforts to do this bring them into all sorts of adventures—the kind that kept the audience rocking with laughter.
The music for "Brown Sugar" was written by Sam Manning and Porter Granger. Manning is the author of the feature song which bears the same title as the show. This song recurs at frequent intervals throughout the play and as the audience filled cut after the performance many were humming or whistling the time. The dances were used in the dance Stammer.
While Marmion and Anthony cared off the Lomers, generous applauds and the efforts of several other principals' entertainers George Cooper was very effective as the Indian Prince: Margaret Johnson and Angeline Lawson sang beautifully. Lillian Young was forced to respond to four enquiries and Little Marie Honegrew made a hit in her dance, in which she was assisted by Johnson and Smith. A musical novel act by Lester and Herbert was also well received.
The costumes and scenery were unusually effective. The costumes were designed by Mrs. Garvey, "Brown Sugar" differs radically from the straight revue type of entertainment, and the plot of the story was built up in a manner which held the audience in suspense while the most hilarious of comedy scenes, the most tuneful of songs and the most graceful of dances followed each other in rapid and fascinating succession.
The feature photoplay was "The Midnight Watch," a very powerful
melodrama. On Thursday the feature will be changed to permit the showing of "Cradle Snatchers," which made a hit as a legitimate production on Broadway and as a film.
Lafayette Set for Convention
Dewey Weinglass in Charge of Production During Elk Week. Planning to take care of the thousands of visitors who are expected to attend the Elks' convention next week, in addition to their regular patronage, the management of the Lafayette Theatre is arranging a gala program with some of the best known colored entertainers on the stage.
Dewey Welinglass, one of the younger and more aggressive of the present-day producers, is staging the show. In addition to the regular performances and the regular midnight show on Friday, a special midnight show is being arranged for Monday night. The program of the Elks, so far as we know, does not provide any other function for that night, and the visitors are expected to take advantage of the opportunity to see one of the colored revues which have set the pace for musical comedy entertainment in the theatres throughout the country.
The title of next week's revue is "Who's Doing It?" The Dancing Demons, the Four Pepper Shakers, the Highower Trio, Rivers and Brown, Blondina Brown, Izzy Rhinggold, Bertha Roe, Birdie Baker, Slim Thompson, Billie McLauren and other celebrities are in the cast. The music of "Who's Doing It?" was written by Jimmie Johnson.
For the picture part of the program, Buck Jones will be seen on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in "Whispering Sage." On Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday the William Fox super-dramma, "The Secret Studio," starring Olive Borden will be the screen attraction.

Florence Vidor "She" in "The World at Her Feet"
Arnold Kent Featured in Amusing French Farce; Luther Reed Directed
A geometrical handling of plot, which makes a parallelogram of the familiar triangle, is used in the new Paramount picture starring Florence Vidor in "The World at Her Feet," which will be shown at the Lincoln next Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Two young married couples are involved in a merry intrigue of love making and suspected infidelity, with a comedy relief "divorce detective de luxe" introduced at just the proper time to bring things out right in the end.
The picture is an adaptation by Doris Anderson of the French stage success, "Lawyer Bolbec and Her Husband," which was written by Georges Berr and Louis Verneul. The continuity was prepared by Louise Long of the Paramount scenario department, whose most recent work was on the Clara Bow starring vehicle, "Rough House Rosie." Luther Reed, director of Adolphe

Lincoln Giants Simply Snowed Under by Homestead Grays in 5-Game Series
Although "Cum" Posey Felt That New York Would Not Give Him a Warm Welcome, We Are About to Show Him That We Are Not Watch Grabbers in This Part of the Country.
When The Amsterdam News photographer asked "Cum" Posey to line up for a picture at the Catholic Protectory Oval grounds last Sunday afternoon before the Lincoln Giants and the Homestead Grays went into battle, the little Pittsburghian shied like a scared horse and opined that there would be nothing doing in the line of pictures until after the game.
We do not know whether it was superstition or not, but when Posey remarked that we would not insert his picture in The Amsterdam News, anyhow, he knew that he was in the state of mind which marked that memorable occasion when he led his Pittsburghians on the basketball court and was being given the time of his life and the now famous timepiece disappeared.

We have reference to that game wherein the Douglas men had placed the Pittsburgh players on the run and some Houdini made the very necessary timepiece do the disappearing act. Be that as it may. Mr. Posey is now at the head of a mighty good aggregation of baseball players known as the Homestead Grays, and long before the team arrived in town and before the series started we opined to those who came seeking information that Mr. Posey's team would win.
This because we have followed the work of the Grays and personally know the leadership behind the team—leadership which made it possible for Posey to break into the charmed circle of big time basketball in this town and whip to a standstill the best we could produce. Mr. Posey is also aware of the fact that regardless of our personal opinion of his demands on the basketball court, we have never yet failed to give him the glory that is his and we can safely say that we have had as much as anyone else in this wide world to do in helping to make Posey the outstanding figure that he is
Without us in the early days to chronicle his accomplishments on the basketball court for the fans of Gotham, he would not be at this time enjoying the reputation he is in Greater New York, for in that day and time his Pittsburgh paper and the Chicago "Defender" were negligible insofar as this neck of the woods was concerned. And we make hold to assert that the same thing holds good today if we are to judge by the results of labors in behalf of an appreciative public here.
That being off our chest, let us record for generations to come that Posey and his Homestead Grays took the Lincoln Giants and slammed them all around the lot for a four out of five game win in the series. In Pittsburgh, last Friday and Saturday, the Grays took the first three games, then they came to New York prepared to take the other two when rain interfered

HOMESTEADS TAKE SERIES FROM LINCOLNS Jamaica Kid a Set-up for Maloney Last Week
"Cyclone Joe" Williams
By ANDY RAZAF.
When you are "night" and have your "stuff"
You burn the catcher's mitt.
"Fence-busters" haven't skill enough
To get a single hit.
I've seen your ball twist like a snake
And must as if on wings.
And batmen, baffled by its break.
Make comic, frillless swings.
You often have struck out the side
With three on and none down;
You've never failed to touch our pride
Or make opponents frown.
In days when you will pitch no more
And we speak of your fame.
We can but add to your life's score
"None better in the game!"
and they went home with the first stamma.
Posey's team's victories gave us the right to pose as a seer among our friends, for much as we desired to see the Lincoln Giants sailing home victorious, we had the nerve to offer to lay wagers that the Homestead Grays would win. Up at the oval on Sunday the Pittsburgh team hit the ball hard and their work on the field was brilliant. They tried to sew up the visitors, but they came through with two runs in the second, two in the third, two in the fifth, one in the seventh and another in the ninth. They had to hit hard to win, for the Lincoln had garnered six runs, but Homestead was not found wanting when it became necessary. Yes, sir, and it was not Cyclone Joe on the mound just the same. Bad weather spoiled what would have been a splendid time for the fans, despite the winning of the Pittsburghians.

Black Sox Boys in Collision
Patched-Up Players Had to Face Hilldale and Could Not Stem Tide.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 11.—Due to a collision of the Black Sox bus that occurred Monday, the Baltimore team presented a line-up of patched-up players to battle Hilldale in the Thursday afternoon fuss. Manager Ben Taylor suffered the most severe injuries and will be out of the game for several weeks with lacerations that required 20 stitches.
Dick Jackson played with his chin swathed in bandages and Bill Monroe, a recruit from Washington, played third base. Nip Winters opposed Tarleton Strong on the mound and Hildale bugged the contest in rather casy fashion by the score of 8 to 1. The Daisies took advantage of the Sox's loose fielding in fourth inning, with the result that two errors, Briggs' single, Winters' double and Jake Stevens' triple over Holloway's head shoved over four runs and sewed up the contest. The fourth inning settled Strong, and Rube Yokely who succeeded him was wild and unsteady in the next two frames.
Nip Winters, after being nicked for a run in the first inning, held the visitors in check. The Sox made a bid for some scores in the third inning, with runners on first and third, and none out. Stevens grabbed Wilson's grounder and started a rapid double play. Warfield's fielding and the hitting of Thomas stood out for the home team. Eggleston and Jackson each garnered two blows for the Sox.

Ancient Boxer Knocked Out
Jamaica Kid, as Harlem Expected, Beaten By Maloney Friday Night.
With a capacity yelling their heads off for a K. O. last Friday night at Dexter Park, Jimmy (Shamus) Maloney hailing from the land of the fighting warrior, 204, knocked out the ancient Jamaica Kid, of New York City, 181. The end came after the Kid had landed 3 solid smashes to Maloney's jaw that had the Shamus a little dizzy. Maloney then hit the Jamaica Kid with a short right smash to the heart. The Kid dropped for the count of ten and had to be revived with the green bottle.
The fight started with the Jamaica Kid righing out of his corner to gain the honor of landing the first blow. He missed and Maloney went to work with a vim hitting the Kid with rights and lefts to the head and body. The Kid in his endeavor to get away from the terrible punishment ran across the ring, the only reason he did not go further was because the ropes were in his way. This evoked much laughter from the crowd who were yelling for the *Bostonian to finish the Kid. In the second round the Kid kept clinching to avoid taking a beating much to the disgust of the cash customers who were yelling for a K. O. Maloney tried to oblige but was denied. In the third Maloney dropped Jamaica Kid for a short count. The Kid got off the resin and had Maloney missing. The Kid staggered Maloney with a few beauty marks that Maloney didn't like.
In the fourth, the finish came after the Kid had landed 3 smashes

Ted Moses Again to the Fore
Ted Moses Again to the Fore
Colored Casey Fighter Flattens Sonny Schwartz at Roof Garden Show.
Ted Moses, the flashy colored lad from the Astoria Caseys, flattened Sonny Schwartz, unattached, in the third round, after two minutes and forty seconds of terrific battling, at the Columbus Council K. C. Roof Garden Show last week.
The bout easily topped the card for most action, as both the warriors never stopped trying to land a knockout punch.
Although Schwartz was knocked cold, he won the sympathy of the fans by his gameness in staying as long as he did.
Moses also proved that he could take it, for he was practically out on his feet in the first round. However, he held his opponent off with a left jab until the bell.
The second round he came out stronger than ever. Moses worked coolly and had his opponent up and down. Right hooks to the mid-section made Schwartz take the count of nine four times.
The third canto found the sads fighting viciously. Schwartz missed a vicious right swing which left an opening for Moses. He sent in a left hook to the mid-section and it was curtains for the unattached battler.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 15. — Jim Maloney, Boston heavyweight, was wiped out of the pugilistic picture tonight by George Godfrey, when he was knocked cold in the first round at Shibe Park before a crowd of 18,000. The bout went only 1 minute 25 seconds. Maloney, who shared honors with Jack Sharkey until the latter finished him in the fifth last May, was crowded back against the ropes as the "Black Shadow" of Leiperville; Pa., shot ovr two wicked lefts. Maloney wilted under the first one and went backwards. As he sagged Godfrey sent another triphammer left and the Boston fighter fell in a heap on his face.

Dean Says
PRESIDENT COOL-

House. He has declared in
Delphic terms that he will
not again stand for renomi-
nation, The past four years
have revealed the “ full
measure of hig character
and calibre. His lines have
begn definitely laid; his
. brand, of “xtatesmanship has
been determined. The char-
acter of Calvin Coolidge is
as rigid as that of John
Calvin, His behavior is not
controlled by events, but by
his character.
He lacks the adaptability

actuated br the internal
motive spring of the moral-
ist. lic will not behave dif-
ferently in the next seven-
teen months from what he
has done in the past iorty-
cight months.
He lacks the spectacularism of
Thoodore Roosevelt and the
moral arlity of Woodrow Wit
son, who wus too proud to fight
before entering into war, de
manded peace without victory af-
tor entering it, but victimized
the vanquished after the war

If we ever reach the polat of
peace on earth and Sood-will
among men, Calvin Coolidge
would make an ideal ruler in per
retuity. His are the homely vin
tues of industry, thrift and econ-
omy. He lacks’the heroic mold
to compel Capital to appease La
bor, or Labor not to bebuve it-
self unseemly.
He is devoid of the courage to
grapple with the rapidly a>
proaching irrepressible con-
ict between agriculture and in-

Public Sale of Classon Avenue Property Recalls Disastrous Fire
Louis Fenster and Others Secured Order Against Shoobra Palace and Realty Corporation to Force Sale.
The adage, "It never rains but what it pours," seems true of the Shoobra Palace and Realty Corporation. In last week's issue we told of the judgment of foreclosure and sale that was entered in the Supreme Court on July 7 against the premises at 547 Classon avenue, which were ordered sold in public auction on Aug. 4. On July 30, in pursuance of a judgment of foreclosure and sale, a notice was given last week that the premises at 520 Classon avenue will be sold at public auction at the Brooklyn Real Estate Salesroom, 189 Montague street, on Aug. 24.
The order was secured by Louis Fenster and others as plaintiffs against the Shoobra Palace and Realty Corporation.
The foreclosure against the premises at 547 Classon avenue recalls a tragic story of a woman who was burned to death in this house on the first night she spent there.
The men were arrested with two civilians on Saturday night, August 6, on complaint of James McCauley, also colored, of 98 Ashland place, who alleged that on Aug 4 they entered the premises which he conducts as a rooming house and demanded $100 from him, claiming that he ran a gambling house and was selling durs. The officers, he claims, were in civilian clothes. The two men that were with the officers were John Dominguez of 394 Bridge street, and Ralph Escalara of 61 Tillary street. All four state that they are Porto Ricans, but the records have them as Negroes. McCauley stated that he only had $80 which he gave them. McCauley told Officer McCauley, white, of the "shakedown," and he and another officer arrested the two civilians, who, it is alleged, "squealed" on the officers.
The officers are out on bail, but the two Porto Rican colored men were returned to Raymond street jail in default of bond.
Assemblyman Edw. Fay Designated by Co. Com.
Assemblyman Edward E. Fay was unanimously designated by the County Committee of the 17th Assembly District for the position of Judge in the Second District Municipal Court upon his record of three years as a member of the Legislature representing the people of that district, and entitled to run for the higher office.
He was a member of the State Industrial Survey Commission and chairman of the Fay Legislative Investigating Committee, investigating the courts in the Second Judicial Department, covering Long Island and Richmond County, and a member of the Judiciary Committee of the Assembly for three years.
Assemblyman Fay has also been on other important committees and is a member of the Brooklyn Bar Association, a charter member of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, the New York County Lawyers' Association, the Inviable Club and other civic and fraternal orders.
Martin Elected Delegate to Republican Convention
Arthur Q. Martin of 392 Carlton avenue, one of the best known business men in the city and who is also active in fraternal, Y. M. C. A. and church circles, was elected alternate to the Republican State convention, which will meet at Rochester on Sept. 30.
Mr. Martin is the leader of the Tenth Assembly District Republicans, with headquarters at 380 Cumberland street. The district organization is known as the B. K. Bruce Republican Club. Charles H. Vann is president.
The woman was Mrs. Helen Delk. She and her husband moved into the house, which is a four-story brick structure, on May 4, heat, and early in the next morning Mrs. Delk's body had been consumed by flames that started in a mysterious manner. Her husband was also seriously burned.
Mrs. Catherine Ford, who also lived in the house at the time, was taken to the hospital with a broken leg and other injuries which she received when she jumped from the fourth story window. Mrs. Ford's brother, George, was also injured. When he was aroused by the shouts of fire he ran to the roof of the house and jumped to the roof of an adjoining house. His injuries were such that he had to be taken to the hospital.
After a strict examination by the police, the fire department and the fire marshal it was unable to determine the cause of the fire. From all reports the cause of the fire was due to an explosion on one of the lower floors. The flames spread so rapidly that the majority of the tenants, who were asleep, barely escaped. There were eighteen persons in the building at the time. All escaped without injury with the exception of the aforementioned four persons. Samuel F. Edmead, the lawyer, whom it is reported organized the Shahra Palace and Realty Corporation, was manager of the property at the time of this disaster.
The house at 520 Classon avenue is the third piece of property that has gone from the control of this company. It is the office of the corporation. Prior to this the company controlled 1068 Fulton street, which is now owned by Brooklyn Lodge No. 32 of Elks. The company is reported to have lost this property after spending over $100 in improvements. It was known as Shoobra Palace.

Official Presentation of Library Sunday at "Y"
Mrs. George W. Fayerweather, who is well known for her wide interest in social and philanthropic entarprises throughout Greater New York, and who has given the greater part of her useful life to the uplift of her people, believes that the library of her husband, now deceased, will be made most use of if placed in the midst of the more than 700 men and boys of the Carlton Avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A.
For the past two years the branch has been collecting standard works in order that it may maintain on the premises a library for the men and boys. At a meeting of the Meroney Memorial Library Association, an organization connected with the branch and consisting of many of the prominent citizens of Brooklyn, the foundation for this library was laid two years ago. Books were contributed by scores of people. This library, which is named in honor of the former secretary, Rufus M. Meroney, because of his interest in books and his desire to have them kept always before the growing youth of the community, has become a popular rendezvous for the more studious members interested in their personal progress. It is clearly evident that a library such as the one Mr. Fayerweather spent hours with and which he loved so dearly will be immeasurably profitable to the lives of those who enjoy reading in the Y. M. C. A.
An appropriate service has been arranged for Sunday, August 21, at 4 o'clock, at which time the library will be officially presented to the branch. A lifelong friend of the deceased is expected to speak and the public is cordially invited to be present.

The only stipulation Mrs. Fayerweather makes is that should the Federation ever be dissolved the property would be given to the City of Newport. Mrs. Fayerweather for many years has been a leader among the members of her people. Her husband was a collector of books on Negroes and by Negroes. Mrs. Fayerweather recently presented his library to the Carlton avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A. for the use of its members. Form! dedication ceremonies will be held Aug. 21.

Jamaica Men Caught and Charged With Hold-Up
Hearing shouts for help coming from the direction of South and Canal streets, South Jamaica, at 2 a.m., last Saturday, Patrolman Charles Rout, of the Jamaica station, who has been on the force since January 1, ran to the scene. He saw two men running and a third standing on a corner wildly declaiming that he had been assaulted and robbed. Giving chase to the running men, Rout captured both and with Carl Anderson, 35, of 133-22 101st avenue, South Jamaica, took the suspects to the police station. They identified themselves as Blind Tinsdale, 29, of 107-49 Merrick boulevard, South Jamaica, and Richard McMann, 35, no home.
Questioned by Detective James Mangin, of the Jamaica station, McMann is alleged to have said that Tinsdale had struck Anderson on the head with a bar for the purpose of knocking, him unconscious and robbing him, but that the blow failed to have, the expected effect and the victim shouted for help, resulting in the arrest of the two suspects.
Anderson counted his money in the police station and said that $10 was missing from his "roll" of $29. No money was found on the prisoners, however.
at 1095 Park place, which is one of the exclusive residential sections of Brooklyn, is vice-president of the Kings County Colored Republican Organization and is the leader of the colored Republican women of the county. She is also a former treasurer and active member of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs. She was the only colored person in the county to serve as an alternate to the Republican National Convention in 1921. This was the first time in the history of Brooklyn that the Negroes were so recognized.
Prepare to Entertain Order
Benevolent Order of Moose in Annual Convention Next Month.
Cosmopolitan Lodge No. 7 and Bethsida Chapter No. 20, of Brooklyn, the organizations that will be hosts to the Improved Benvolent Protective Order of Moors then they meet in Brooklyn for their fourth annual convention, beginning Sunday, Sept. 4, have completed their plans for the, entertainment for the huge throng expected in Brooklyn at that time. Dr. H. H. Proctor, pastor of Nazarene Congregational Church, who will preach the annual sermon to the order on Sunday night, Sept. 9, will take as his subject that night "A Constructive Program or the Race." The occasion will mark the first time that the new some of Nazarene Church, at Leforts place and Grand avenue, has been used for worship by our people.
Monday, Sept. 5, the grand parade will be held, starting at 1 p.m. from 1068 Fulton street, the home of Brooklyn Lodge of Elks, and the place where the grand lodge sessions of the Moose will be held. It will move through Classon avenue to Lafayette avenue, to Washington avenue, to Dean street; up Dean to Saratoga avenue to Herkimer street; down Herkimer street to Classon avenue, back to 1068 Fulton street.
The committee arranging for this convention, headed by Attorney Thomas L. Higgins, has prepared an excellent 40-page journal and souvenir program in which many of Brooklyn's interesting places will be described for the benefit of the visitors. The delegates will report immediately on arriving in Brooklyn to the convention headquarters at 1068 Fulton street, where they will register and be assigned to homes.
James Poline, of 1044 Herkimer street, is chairman of the annual convention ball committee, to be held at Arcadia Hall on the night of Labor Day, Sept. 5. and Mrs. Lula Fletcher is assistant chairman of the general committee and Stanley Morris secretary. William H. McFarland is chairman of the ball committee.
Said Cath. Institution Not Overfriendly to Us
Little Marion Belda, the six-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Belda, of 1704 Dean street, was among the fifteen persons injured by automobiles on Aug. 9. She was struck by an automobile driven by a white man described as Harry Goetz of 1556 Sixty-fourth street, while crossing at Utica avenue and Dean street. The child had been out shopping and was alone. Police Officer Edward Green, who was driving a department car, took the child to St. Mary's Hospital, but in this land of the free and home of the brave it is alleged that the officials would not admit the child as a patient, but just gave her some first aid treatment. Her father came for her and took the girl home. She was severely lacerated about the face and body and her right arm is probably fractured.
This hospital is reported to be run by the Catholics of Brooklyn, who profess to be so friendly to Negroes, and while it is not a free institution this and similar alleged acts against injured colored men and women has caused much indignation from time to time, but that is as far as the matter has ever gone.
Freeport Girl Lost Life in Auto Accident Monday
Ethol Reese, 19, of 7 Bennington bonaville, Freeport, lost her life in the rainstorm on Monday night. Aug. 8, when her escort, Alfred Perry, 40, of 115 East Merrick road, Freeport, tried to beat an east-bound Long Island Railroad train to the Babylon turnpike grade crossing. The coupe in which they were riding was smashed to bits. Perry was taken to the Nassau County Hospital at Mineola in a serious condition. There are no gates or watchmen at this crossing and the couple apparently failed to see the automatic red signal light through the heavy mist, or hear the ringing bell with the windows of their car closed. The train, which was due at the Merrick station, a quarter of a mile distant, at 10.30 p. m., was operated by James Kinney, white.
Six colored and white persons were killed in Brooklyn and Long Island on Aug. 8 and 9, and two others were perhaps fatally injured in automobile and train smash-ups.

Mrs. Taylor Raises Neat Sum for Settlement
While many of us were vacationing at the seashore, mountains or other summer resort, Mrs. Lucille Brooks Taylor of 25 Debevolse place was hard at work last week raising money for the Lincoln Settlement babies.
In less than a week Mrs. Taylor raised $70. This money is to buy milk for the many babies who find joy, comfort and loving care in the nursery conducted by the Lincoln Settlement, 105 Fleet place, Brooklyn.
When interviewed at her home last night Mrs. Taylor showed her good and loving nature by saying that she could not leave for her vacation knowing that others less fortunate than herself had been forgotten.
Another contribution of $30 for the nursery was received from Mrs. Jesse 'Webster of 1417 President street.
"It is things like this," said Mr. Elzy, executive secretary of the association, "that inspire us to be of more and better service to the people of our community."
"Wave" Editor the Only Speaker
None Willing to Take Responsibility for Trying Jim-Crow Methods.
About 1.400 persons assembled on the ocean front, foot of Beach 105th street, Rockaway Beach. Wednesday night in response to a call for a mass meeting to consider the "color question" in the Seaside section at Far Rockaway. The advertisements and hand bills, widely distributed, were signed "The Residents of Seaside," but apparently none was willing to openly declare himself as sponsoring the meeting which was held under the direction of Dr. John Hewins Kern, editor of the "Wave," and his associate, Donald G. Gleason.
Dr. Kern, who made the sole address of the evening, appealed to the realtors and property owners to enter into a compact not to sell or rent property to Negroes. He said that certain real estate agents from the Harlem district were in a combine with several men in the Rockaway Beach section to convert it into a Negro rendezvous by acquiring control of one of the largest amusement parks in the Rockaways and other ocean frontage. He urged everyone to sign a petition to the State authorities for aid in coping with the question by all lawful means. Dr. Kern declared the influx of Negros on Thursdays, Sundays and holidays was such as to drive all white persons from the beaches. He said that Negroes from Harlem, Paterson, Newark and the Hammels section thronged Beach 105th street.
Sons of N. Carolina in Successful Picnic Aug. 12
August 12 was the shortest day in the year for the 2,000 North Carolinians and their friends that crowded their way into Ulmer Park that night when the Society of the Sons of North Carolina gave their thirty-second annual picnic there. It was the shortest because when enjoyment and mirth were at their height and it seemed that all had been at the park but a short time Carl Brown and his Colony Club Orchestra played "Honka, Sweet Home." Despite the large crowd, not the slightest evidence of any friction was seen. Usually at such large gatherings in Brooklyn some of the young people, filled with joy and other things, "start something." but this was not the case on this occasion.
President William H. Banks, who was also chairman of the picnic committee, and a large committee composed of some of the best known men in Brooklyn, were responsible for the success of the affair.
Brooklyn Elks Preparing for Big Night Thursday
Everything is in readiness for the silver anniversary picnic of Brooklyn Lodge No. 32, L B P. O. Elks of the W., Thursday night at Ulmer Park. The committee is preparing to handle one of the largest crowds ever attracted to this popular picnic park that night. Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finlay Wilson, together with Brooklyn Lodge's own past grand exalted ruler, George E. Wibecan, and other prominent Elks, will be among the many guests whom the committee expects to entertain. Nothing has been left undone for a rare evening and all who attend will be certain to find that out.

Edward Mayo, 32, of 224 Myrtle avenue, had the charges of disorderly conduct against him dismissed in the Adams Street Court a few days ago despite the fact that Police Officer Joseph Gigley, white, of the Poplar Street Station, endeavored to convict him with his testimony. Mayo's attorney was able to break down the officer's testimony and Magistrate Harry Dale granted his motion for dismissal. According to Mayo, he was standing at the corner of Fleet place and Myrtle avenue when Gigley came up to him and said: "What the h— are you looking at, you black —" This aroused Mayo and he replied in kind. The officer attempted to arrest him and in doing so he is alleged to have used his club. Mayo is reported as having knocked the officer down and later on he was arrested. This was on Saturday, July 20.
When the case was brought to trial Officer Gisley attempted to show that Mayo was the aggressor, but Counsellor Morton in his cross-examination showed by the officer's own statements that this was not the case and the motion to dismiss was granted.

Hiking from Shreveport to Boston in ninety days, Nebraska Williams, 19, who give his address as the Manhattan Barber Shop, Flattery Building, Shrevesport, La., tramped into the Big Town Saturday with his big Boston bulldog, "Bully," who seemed tired of foot and bored of spirit.

Leaving Shreveport on June 14, Williams passed through the following large cities: Memphis, St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany and New York City. In twenty-nine days he has covered 1,763 miles and worn out eight pair of shoes, including a pair for "Bully." He reports at police headquarters in every city.
Williams carries a compass and walking clock and a small pouch slung over his shoulder. He solls photos of himself en route. He carries no weapons of defense. He has been "talked to death," he says, in every place he's stopped, so he is writing a book on his bunion trot to Bean Town.
Williams declares he is an all-around athlete, and when examined by a physician at the Customs house in Albany was pronounced to be in perfect health. Business and music, he says, will be his chief subjects at college, as he desires to go into the grocery business. "like my father, who is dead now." His mother runs the busline. The telephone is his favorite instrument. Harlem dust was shaken from the six feet of Williams and "Bully" when they struck out for Boston via 130th street about four o'clock Monday morning.

"America's Most Beautiful Picture"
NDER the above caption the Christian Century of Chicago prints the latest schoolhouse construction
"Perhaps some Americans have looked at this picture and seen in it nothing but a map—nothing but another one of those maps dotted over with the symbols of a philanthropic adventure. If such there be, they need to look again. For there is here the depiction of a venture as arising as this company ever over the wiltime. It is time that the picture which the Julius Roswald fund is painting across the map of the southern states should be known and evaluated at its surpassing worth by the entire citizenship of the nation.
"It is only fifteen years since this modest, retiring Jewish merchant established his fund for the encouragement of adequate education for Negro children, especially in the rural regions of the South. The plan which the fund has followed has been an extremely simple one. It has offered to provide part of the funds wherever a southern state, together with a local Negro community, would provide the remainder necessary for the building of schools of modern type. in Thompson, 223 Warren street, Newark.

which education of an adequate nature might be offered.
"When the Rosenwald fund gives toward the erection of a new school, the Negro community involved must give a sum equal to or greater than that given by the fund. There must be one or more rooms dedicated to industrial education in every such school, and there must be at least two acres of ground for agricultural instruction. The schools, when completed, become public school property. The map shows the way in which southern whites and Negroes have responded to this opportunity, and the amazing development of good schools for colored children which has come below the Mason and Dixon line since 1512.
"Statistics are usually the Some things. But to those who look with foreboding on the race question in the United States some statistics as to the present status of education for Negroes in the South will prove worth noting. There were 86,619 school-houses of all kinds in the fourteen southern states in 1824, when the Federal Bureau of Education compiled its latest figures. On July 1 a year ago there were 24,079 schools for Negroes. Of these, 22,494 (33.4 per cent) were rural.
The simple, one-teacher type of school made up 63.8 per cent of these Negro schools; the two-teacher school, 18.8 per cent; the three-teacher school, 7.1 per cent, and the four-teacher and larger, 10.3 per cent of all rural Negro schools in the South. The influence of the Rosenwald fund is even more clear when it is said that only 2 per cent of the one-teacher schools are Rosenwald schools, while 29.3 per cent of the two-teacher, 31.2 per cent of the three-teacher, 31.7 per cent of the four-teacher and larger schools for Negroes have been helped by this fund. These Rosenwald schools provide 27.4 per cent of the pupil capacity for the total rural enrollment of Negro children.
"But we go back to the picture. Some amazing and enheartening things are happening in America these days. Some things big with potent for the future are being undertaken. But among all the contributions to our national beauty or our national strength, we know of none comparable with the painting of this picture. We lift our hand in salute to the man who first conceived the map of these great states as his canvases and then dared to sweep upon it such glorious composition as this."

Now if you can just make the delegates as welcome as you can, that then they go back to their home and say: "Gee, those Harlem Scouts are fine. Just look how they volunteered to show us around." And don't forget, Scouts, we are going to have plenty of news for them to read. Let's show them what we are doing.

By GARY B. LEWIS.
CHICAGO, Aug. 15.—While New York City is preparing to entertain the Elks' Convention, Chicago has opened its doors of hospitality to the Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias' session, which convened on Sunday with a serenity church, with the Rev. William D. Cook as pastor. Headed by Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green, New Orleans, La., over 130,060 visitors are in the city. Dr. Allen A. Wesley, grand chancellor of the State of Illinois, states this will be the largest bilateral convention in the country. General R. R. Jackson, head of the uniform rank, claims there will be more uniform men in the line of march on Friday than at any other time since he has been connected with the order, and that has been over a quarter of a century.
Already Thirty-fifth, Forty-third and Forty-seventh streets have been decorated for the visiting knights. Electric wires and pole are displaying Pythian colors and business houses are decorated. Monday night the visitors were entertained at the Dreamland Cafe and Metropolitan Theatre. Forty-third night there was a parkade which terminated at the Eighth Regiment Armory. There will be the great military ball at the Coliseum, where 50,000 are expected to witness the drill contest tomorrow night. On Friday is scheduled the big parade. It is expected to start at 10 o'clock in the morning and require five hours to the standing stand. Secession at Fort
The sessions are being held at Forum Hall, Forty-third and Calm-street.

Jackson of the Community Church, Forty-fifth and South Parkway, the Court of Calanthe is in session. One of the biggest forms of interest will be the inspection of the New Pythian Temple, just erected at the corner of Thirty-seventh place and State street as a monument. Unit is in Camp. The uniform is in camp at Ninety-fifth and State street. Here is where the Governor of the State, Mayor of the City, and other officials will review the "knighted soldiers" on Governor's Day.

Recurrence of Boston Race Clash
White Man Shot and Seriously Wounded Assailant Held.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., August 25.
A recurrence of nine clashes took place here Saturday night when Thomas Dinnan, 24, of 223 Sidney street, was shot and seriously wounded.
He is at the Cambridge Relief Hospital at the point of death suffering from bullet wounds, and his alleged assailant, Russell C. Banks, 31, 20 Jay street, is locked up at the Cambridge police station charged with assault with a dangerous weapon.
According to the police, the shooting occurred at Western avenue and Jay street late Saturday night after an argument in which Dignan and other whites battled with a band of colored men.
Tension has been running high in this particular neighborhood since over a week ago scores of both white and African American Hayes, a white youth, were shot by ice peddler with an ice pick. Hayes is still confined in the hospital.
Police have dispersed several bands of whites seeking revenge in the Negro section. It seems that Dignan and his white companions were on such a mission when he was felled. Harry Tourl, 50, of 6 Bigelow town, was the number of whites, told the police that Banks out to them to stop kicking his not as they passed the corner. They dented they had even bothered the dor and soon the argument resulted in blows being struck. At this time Banks threatened to get his gun and shoot. Dignan invited him to go ahead and get his gun, saying 'I'll be here when you return.' Upon his return, it is Dignan who gets the shot, the shot bullet entering Dignan's lip and coming out below his jaw. Dignan fell to the ground and everybody dispersed. Tourl called the police and a later investigation resulted in the arrest of Banks.
Wealthy Georgian Is Killed by Lightning
SPARTA, Ga., Aug. 17—Sherman Ingram, 64, probably the wealthiest Negro in this section of the state, was instantly killed by a bolt of lightning, which struck him as he walked through a field from his sawmill last week. Ingram owned the largest body of timber in the county, and had repeatedly refused to sell it to local lumbermen for a large sum. The bolt struck him in the top of his head, and went through his body, tearing his clothing into shreds, and both shoes were torn into bits when the electricity went out through his feet into the ground. A large hole several feet deep was torn in the ground where he stood. A son of the dead man was walking near him and was knocked to the earth and stunned for several minutes. Ingram was a native of this county.

Men in the crowd hurried to the car and lifted the Frank's out. The girl and baby were unhurt, but Mrs. Frank was badly bruised on the left arm and sustained a deep gash on her forehead. She was taken from the car in a semi-conscious condition. A nearby drug store Mrs. Frank was visiting with uncle Dr. Pedromo arrived from Harlem Hospital. Frank was bruised.
Patrolman Webber, assisted by Patrolman Maloney and others of the West 133th street station, questioned the drivers in an effort to fix responsibility. It was disclosed that Stubbs applied his brakes as he was going east on West 133th street, but could not stop in time to avoid hitting Frank's car, which skidded, then swerped and overturned as it head- south on Seventh avenue. The taxi driver was killed. William Howell, 141 West 113t street, who helped excricate the Frank's from the wreckage, was badly hurt on the left hand when someone slammed the door of the car on his fingers.
M. Bellegarde Here for Congress
M. Bellegarde Here for Congress
Distinguished Haitian Well Informed on the Negro All Over the World.
The arrival in New York last Wednesday of M. Danaes Bellogarde, commander of the Legion of Honor for the Fourth Pan-African Congress, is already indicative of international character and far-flung convention. Few men are better able to discuss authoritatively questions pertaining to the Negro throughout the world than this distinguished Halifan. His equipment results from service as Minister of Education, Minister from Haiti and Minister of the League of Nations, and only one delegate to the Third Pan-American Commercial Congress.
Unless the American Occupation in Haiti finds means of preventing his departure, Dr. Normall Sylvain, son of one of Haiti's greatest patrons and heroes, and himself a worthy successor of his father, also arrive in time for the contest, the contest will be further represented by M. Adolpho Sixto of the Virgin Islands.
Chief Amoah III of the Gold Coast, West Africa, brings a point of view as new and an authoritative as that of M. Belllegarde. His knowledge of conditions not only in the English colonies but also in Portuguese colonies of the west, coast are founded on years of careful study.
T. Augustus Toote, formerly acting Attorney General of the Bahamas, is here and will speak for those islands.
Narayan D. Parulekar, an East Indian lecturer of the Board of Education, will have his country represented, for the East Indian representation in Africa has a direct repercussion on the status of the Negro.
On the afternoon of the twenty-fourth Mrs. H. P. Camphor, wife of Bishop Camphor, who spent a number of years in Africa, will discuss some phase of missionary work in Africa. The discussion will be continued by the Rev. Florence Randolph, who likewise lived in Africa. An address will also be by Dr. Helen Curtis, who in a recognized authority, Liberia, Mrs. A. W. Dickerson, vice-president, will represent the International Council of Women of the Darker Races. The executive committee announces a discussion, "The African Negro and His American Half-Drother," by Melville J. Herkowitz, anthropologist of Columbia University. Dr. W. E. B. Du Hois, editor of the Crisis and founder of the present Pan-African Congress, is general secretary of the organization. Hayford Logan who served as secretary and interpreter of the former Pan-African Congress, has arrived to again not in the same capacity.

One of Pair Accused in Barrett Assault Held
Thomas Francis, 106 West 130th street, is being sought by the police and Lionel French, 36, formerly of the same address, was arranged in Heights Court Thursday charged with assault upon Prof. Edward Barrett, teacher of philosophy. 106 West 130th street, Tuesday night of last week. Francis and French were lodgers.
Professor Barrett states that a strange woman came to the house to visit Francis in his room, but he would not permit it, when upon the two became engaged in an altercation. Francis, the professor charges, beat him behind him. Both men moved out of the house that night. Professor Barrett said, and, fearing another attack, a policeman was placed on guard at his home.
Lost Wednesday night French came back to apologize, the professor said, and was immediately placed under arrest. On Thursday morning French appeared before Magistrate Robert B. Browne before a $1,000 bail trial on August 28. French furnished bond and was released.
Collapses While Making Plea
Captain James P. Rose
Suffers Heart Attack
in Mass.
FITCHBURG, MASS. Aug. 16.—While making an impassionable plea for the abolition of the color-line clause in the constitution of the society "Forty and Eight," an auxiliary of the American Legion, Captain James P. Rose of Jamaica Plain collapsed on the convention Friday morning from a heart attack. More than 1,000 members were in attendance at the Massachusetts annual Legion meeting, here scores of these hardened war veterans, moved by emotions, wiped when Captain Rose was carried from the ball. The stricken veteran had proposed a constitutional amendment to "sanitize" the "Forty and Eight" clause's cause barring Negroes from membership. The amendment was defeated in committee Thursday.
The debate was continued into Saturday's session. Past State Commander Leo M. Harlow of North Kuston, declaring for equality for all men, called for "no half measures," no "begging the question," and added a new angle to the question. He also said all anybody knows, the body of the unknown soldier, entombed at Arlington National Cemetery, may be that of a Chinese or one of the African race." A substitute amendment very similar to the Rose amendment, but lacking the teeth of Rose's, was adopted. It was recommended that the color-line clause in the constitution be changed to "Eight" be fought in the Paris convention and in all national conventions until its removal or the destruction of the society.
Auto Tire Salesman Brings Extortion Charge
Charred with extortion. Joseph H. Williams, 35, 149 West 140th street, was held in $1,000 ball for the Grand Jury when arrested before Madrastre Gibbons Roosebillth in Highland Court. Roosebillth According to Charles Brown, auto tire salesman, 149 West: 177th street, Williams posed as a police officer and threatened to "frame" him on June 8, and exorted $25 from him at 14th street and Lenox avenue. On July 5 and 13 Williams demanded $3 and $. Brown said. Finally, on July 29, Brown declares Williams charged him with a crime and threatened to arrest him unless he was paid $3. This occurred at Seventh avenue and Brown said, and at 10:35 a.m. the same day he paid Williams $56.
Patrolman Carter of Traffic C was called to arrest Williams and he was turned over to the custody of Patrolman Renub of the West 135th street station. Brown gave receipts for the amounts Williams gave and gave him, the police stated. Brown is out on ball.
4 New Investigations in Alabama Floggings
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Aug. 15. Four new investigations into hooded floggings have been started in central Alabama by county and federal officials as a result of whipping of thirteen persons within the last few days.
Nine of the victims of the masked mobs were residents of Talladega County. P. H. Debardeleben, a white druggist, was ordered to sell his business and leave the county. Clawson Wyatt, M. C. Mathis and W. P. Germany, all of the inmates, would give no reason for the murder, which officials said W. B. Price, white high school principal, had been flogged supposedly because he punished three small girls in his classes. Ben Puravis, W. M. Malone, J. V. Jones, also white, and "Snap" Ragland were the other victims.
Fred Inman, a white man of Randolph County, who was flogged last spring "because he refused to permit his wife to visit her relatives."
has since died of typhoid fever, county officials said. In Calhoun County, Will Rutledge was taken from his home in Norrville and lashed after being accused of bootlegging.

served by the daily press; nor is he financially unable to support a daily press; nor is there a dearth of purely Negroid news, if the latter is what he wants—so other reasons must be offered for his failure to build up a daily press.
TO DISPOSE completely of the last statement, it is our opinion that the Negro, as a human being, responds to almost everything any other human being responds to, and that a daily newspaper which presented only news originating among Negroes would fail to impress even the Negro, because it would necessitate the reading of another newspaper in English to find out what was taking place in the world outside his own sphere. The money needed to finance a Negro daily need not come directly from Negroes—though it would have to come indirectly from them—so long as he has American desires and tastes to be served by American manufacturers, who would see in a daily Negro press new markets for their wares through the use of its advertising columns. Initial capital and knowledge of modern newspaper business are all that stand in the way of the publication of a successful daily newspaper by Negroes. The Negro public is waiting for it; so are the users of advertising space of all races.
IN A SMALL WAY our ideas of what a Negro daily should consist of will be expressed beginning Monday afternoon when, as a daily publication, copies of The Amsterdam News come off the press and are placed on sale alongside of other daily publications. We shall try to make it sufficiently attractive for you to buy it, and when you will have bought it, we hope that you will tell us frankly what you think of it.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News
Dear Sir: For a long time the West Indian in New York has been the object of severe criticism because of his reluctance to acquire American citizenship. After all, I have come to consider such a venture an unprofitable investment, first and principally because of the status of the Negro in American life, and second because eventually the acquisition of citizenship would tend to the political affairs of the community would tend to embitter the feud between the two.
While the first premise is self-evident, the collapse of the Lawyers' Association's conference in its effort to nominate a candidate for the judgement in the coming primary "because of the West Indians dominating the affair" is significant in that it bears out tolerably well my second premise. Besides, the lawsuit imparts the preliminary conclusion of the Pan-American Congress, due to the presence of the "West Indians," is too recent to be forgotten.
It must not be forgotten that the "West Indian" in becoming an American citizen sacrifices his British status, and if the gentlemen truly desire a Negro judge it would be well to recall that a division in Democratic ranks accounted for the election of the Republican, Abraham Lincoln; and a dissension, in Republican ranks resulted in the election of Wood-Wick.
Now take heed, gentlemen; take heed.

Sacco-Vanzetti and the Negro
DURING the past week America has indeed rode upon troubled seas of apprehension, all because the sympathizers of two Massachusetts convicts, allens, un-Americanized and untamed by neither fear nor force, have raised unending hues and cries against law and government. A good portion of America has spent sleepless nights fearing that out of the conviction and execution of Sacco and Vanzetti through alleged law and procedure, devastation and terrorism, the instrumentalities of "reds" and anarchists, might ensue.
The poor condemned men, pitiless though they were in their fight for life, were tried in an orderly court before a justice of the law and a jury of twelve good men and true. No lynchers' rope dangled nearby; no howling mob derided their predicament. No inflamed passions were appealed to in the effort to prove them blackest of the black. Yet, out of that and concession came monotony of a common zealous breeders of disorder, who carried the misleading motto of "public opinion" upon their shoulders.
America might well consider that in the psychological chaos which followed closely in the wake of Sacco and Vanzetti cases, the United States would no black hands reached for bombs, or spread terrorism over a single square foot of fair America. No Negroes laid threat to officials or Government; nor did a single one pray that an American might lay itself heavily upon a single hair of America's head.
With the morrow, though, the old order will reappear. Gone will be memories of the hatred of anarchists. Gone will be the serenity which came from the knowledge that the Negro is no disturber of the peace. Again he will toil onward, ever kept in his place while-those of purest white hue, he they allen, anarchists or whatnot, just so long as they retain outward composure and respect as to the treasures of America, will, as before, placed in the front ranks of their rear. And his body will be burned at the stake, unmourned and unrequited, just because public sentiment will it so. What an anomaly is this transformation of justice. What a pity that so pure a nation will not give better ear to the still, small voice of Conscience.
A Virginian Dilemma
"Oh. what a tangled web we
weave.
When first we practice to deceive."
VIRGINIA'S racial integrity law, a measure which was recently designed to act as an extractor of black chaff from white wheat, is at present endeavoring to hop, skip and jump over some unforeseen racial difficulties. It appears that notable Indian descendants from gentle Pocahontas and her kin of years ago have been hard struck by the integrity law, and that the sieve is turning back some human lumps which under the law cannot be crushed into bits and strained through.
The city of Richmond, it seems, is about to be compelled to go to the trouble and expense of establishing a special school for fifty or more Indian children—racial outcasts, as it were—who cannot enter the white school and will not enter the colored schools.
At first, it seems that the racial integrity measure was functioning perfectly when families were forced to marry blood 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 schools and daughters of public schools who always had considered themselves "white."
Several of the families affected had been proud of their Indian blood until the racial integrity agitation disclosed beyond a reasonable doubt that practically no Virginia Indian remained free from pronounced Negro strain. Indian resurgations for more than a hundred years furnished free refuge for runaway slaves and hospitality to freed Negroes. The black and the red faces in most of Virginia became inextricably mixed. And inevitably the white mixed with the black to children with clear features, aquiline noses and straight Indian hair.
Worst of all, however, is the fall which Virginia pride has taken in the aftermath of racial purity, which statistics show has waned perceptibly among the fast fying Virginians, who now find themselves unable to get rid of the ballast which is weighing them down to the silliest statutes which any state or municipal legislative body has ever passed.

The Negro in the World's Literature
The Negro in the World's Literature
Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis
Poet, Dramatist, Novelist (1839-1908).
BRAZILIAN poet of much power and beauty, whose
genius was never fully realized until after his death,
was Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis. He was the
only poet of the century in which he wrote to keep close
to beauty and to truth and love and life—and death. He
was a master minister.
Joaquim Maria Machado De Assis is a name hardly pronounced outside of his native Brazil. Among Americans his name seems to be a fable. This humble Negro poet was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1839. His parents were poor, and he was forced by necessity to seek employment at an early age. It seems strange that where he worked and the very persons with whom he came in contact to suggest his real profession. At least age, he commenced work as typesetter and it was then that he met literary men in all walks of life. Long acquaintance with such men as Paulo Brio, and other persons of literary taste, soon ushered him into the realization of his true nature.
At the age of twenty he commenced to try his hands at comedies, tales, translations, poems—all the result of a literary grind. Although he exhibited talent, yes it was slow to mature, intellectualism was not attained to his observation life. And although a born fist, he never attained that stage until he had practically written himself empty. In him was passion, but he was seldomly passionate. Only in his novels he ever took passionate flights. and that is seldom throughout all of his life. Some one has said of him that he was a man of half tins, of half words, of half ideas, of half systems."
But it is as a poet that Machado do assis is known. His poetry appears in four collections. Critics have found some of his verses stiff, cold, arlesk; others have found beauty beyond comparison, but that "he suffered from a limited vocabulary." His subjects are judiciously chosen from all those which can add to beauty to a difficult theme. He has naturally gifted with a musical, his lines are scarcely ever harsh. In his first book—"Crusades!"
In his first book—"Crysalides"
1664, he says:
. . . Amel-tor um dia.
Com esse amor passageiro.
Que nace na phantasia
E nao chega no coracao . . .
"I loved you one day with the
transient love which is born in
the imagination and does not
reach the heart.
Machado de Assis was one of those sweet and glorious spirits who descended, like the angel messengers of old, to discharge some special command, not to dwell here. Pure, ethereal, life, like the fervency of inward living, the beating heart of pears but assumed for the occasion, and as a mist, as a shadow, is ready to dissolve the instant that occasion is served. They speak and pass away into the higher light from whence they came. But their words remain—themselves life and spirit and power—like the electric element of the earth, quickening and vitalizing the souls of men to the end of time. They become part and parcel of our nature. They are essential to the aliment and the progress of our intellectual being as the light, the morning dew of summer, the morning and the evening, the components of nature, the sky, the sea, or the mountain, from which we draw the daily spirit of beauty.
In "Moca Azul" there is a moral significance and I give it entire, rendered into English by the eminent scholar, Dr. Isaac Goldberg: It was a blue fly, with wings of gold and carmine, daughter of a boy born of a certain summer's night amid the petals of a red, red rose. And she buzzed and flew, and flew over the sun and the moon—brighter than a gem of the Grand Mogul, humble toller saw her, and was stuck with amazement and sadness.
But, best of all, is that in the open face of the women and men, in the middle of the bottom, he saw their hearts. He, extending his callous, rouch hand, seized the glittering fly, and he flashed to see it, to discover the cause.
of the mystery, and, closing his fist around it, smiled with contentment as he turned to others an empire. He left for home. He arrives in excitement, and he begins to behave that of a man about to his illusion. He dissected it to him, with such act that the boy, broken with his cumber; and at this there vanished that fantastic, subtle vision. He watched with aloes and cardamom, with an affected air, they say that he know how he lost his blue fly. "As one reads this," says Dr. Goldberg, "a fable comes to mind out of childhood days. What is this poem of the fly out to tale, the goose that laid the fox, verses admirable for color, freshness—for everything, indeed, except originality and feeling."
And further he adds: "It is no vain paradox to say that the real poet Machado de Assis is in his prose, for in his prose alone do the fruits of his imagination once only in his better tales and the books he called novels does his rare personality reach a rounded fulfillment. Peculiarly enough, the man is in his poetry, the artist in his prose. The one is a revelatory of his ethical outlook the other of his esthetic instinct. What he as distinct from what he feels, as in his verse rather than in his novels or tales."
And Carvalho beloves that "Machado de Assis was a poet of greater resources and fuller metrical invention than Luiz Huturares. His poetry reveals a psychological intensity rarely attained in this country (Brazil). Possessing a firm classical' education, a profound knowledge of those humanities which in 17th century France were the distinguishing characteristic of the honnete homme. Machado succeeded in stamping upon his vues a truly singular impress of subtely and discretion. His images are, as a rule, of a perfect realism and clearness worthy of the old masters. His images are veritable parables.
Machado de Assis was a successful playwriter as well as a poet. "Una Oda de Anacronte," a one-act play in verse, is his most famous and ambitious production as a playwriter. It received a large ovation when it was first staged in Rio de Janeiro.
His books are: "Contos Fluminenses," "Circulo Vicioso," "Mosca Azul," "Culto (O) do Venere," "Dom Camurro," "Fonasteiro," "Historias de Meira Noa," "Historias sem Data," Mao (A) la Luva," "Memorial de Cyrus," "Memorias Postunhas de meu Tio," "Ourras Reliplicas," "Papels Avulsos," "Poesias Completas," "Quineas Borba Reliquias de Casa Velha," "Resurrecoal Semana," "Theatro," "Varias Historias," "Yaya Garcia," and numerous miscellaneous pamphlets.
During the first ten years of his literary career Machado de Assis not from his heart but from his heart was not until about 1800 when he began to speak passionately from his soul and heart. In his poetry is found no fear, and very very little complaining, if any at all. He is always sane in his writing and nothing can surpass the sound mind of his compositions.
Just to illustrate once more his splendid aphorisms. I am quoting two lines taken from "Poetry."
O pensamento
E como as aves passagerias: voa
A buscar mehbor clima.
Thought
Is like a bird of passage, ever wining
in quest of taler climes.
No other poet has ever evinced a desire to write. Bazil as did Machado de Assis. His personality was commanding, and anywhere he went he made friends. He was the apostle of pure art, a lover of truth and simplicity. His main object was to develop the language of his people, to write of his experi-ment, and the story of his fellowmen. If he is a poet, no poet, as one critic has attempted to place him, the truth and vigor of his writings have made him famous. He is to Brazilian literature what Paul Laurence Dunbar is to American Negro literature.
He was elected president of the Brazilian Academy of Letters in 1897, position which he held until his much lamented death in 1898.

"The American Race Problem"
By E. B. REUTER. Published by The Thomas W. Crowell Company,
293 Fourth Avenue, New York City. Price $2.75.
AN amazing number of books discussing the race problem are being printed from year to year. This volume of Reuter's, Professor of Sociology at the University of Iowa, impresses me as the best up to date. It has careful statistics concerning Negro population, health, economic status, education, the church and crime. There is also a comprehensive bibliography at the end of each chapter. The comment is dispassionate sometimes to the point of dullness, but clear, and on the whole very favorable.
"As a result of intermixture the Negro as such will ultimately disappear from the population and the race problem will be solved. But in the meantime there will be the problem of defining relations in terms tolerable to the members of each racial group."

What those terms should be is shown in another clear-cut statement. "It would be to the advantage of the Negroes and to the advantage of the white people to remove all handicaps imposed by caste and other prejuvenile factors. The recent the cultural advance of the Negroes that extent the advance of the community. The result is the same whether the Negroes are handicapped in their individual freedom directly by discriminatory acts or by the existence of
Prof. Reuter does not believe in what he calls the nationalistic movement—voluntary segregation. Only in open competition he feels can men do their best work: "Separate institutions are inferior institutions. They are manned by persons incompletely assimilated to modern culture." Solidarity, he believes, can only bring temporary success. He considers the two races in cultural possibilities, declaring that "Each decade scholars have accepted as visions and fairly well working hypothesis the position that the various races and peoples of the world are essentially equal in mental ability and capacity for civilization." There are many opponents of the Negro whom we can now gladly declare are not scholars! Reuter shows up Dr. Dean of two decades ago, who found extraordinary differences between Negro and white brains, because he knew Negro and which were white. Reuter finds little work of first importance produced as yet by the American Negro, but he accounts for this on cultural, not physiological, grounds.
The discussion on lynching and crime is admirable. Among other things, the author says: "There is a deep seated and all prevailing fear of the Negro in the American South. One source of this fear is the treatment the Negro has received at the hands of the whites. The slavery of the Negro, his economic and industrial exploitation, his moral degradation, and other historic facts of the southern situation fundamentally repugnant to civilized standards." This condition creates a weaker race since the presence of a misused person is a perpetual reminder of conduct in violation of the customary standards, and such an irritant becomes an object of aversion and hatred."
The book is a scholar's presentation of an immense mass of material which he has accumulated for years. It lacks the human note. One questions whether auter has any friendly, intimate knowledge of the educated Negroes of today, had he scarcely indulge in his crushing criticism of "classical training's"; the college education given after the war at such institutions as Atlanta, Fisk, Talladega and Tougaloo. The contact of the newly emancipated students of these consecrated teachers of these schools was the most one thing the American Negro has ever had. Retner values also perhaps too high, the cul-

OH LIGHT, that to my shadowed soul gives cheer.
Leave not in darkness me this load to bear;
Stay yet a while and in flickrring give
The food by which this weary soul doth live.
Oh Light, my eyes have but a little seen.
The path that leads to yon Elysian green.
A gate at which my load of cares to throw.
And entring nought but happiness to knit.
Oh Light, the hours of darkness are at hand.
Shed now the rays that I may take the stun.
Frail flesh no longer an resiest the test.
But like a willow plant has sunk to test.
Now shine! for henceforth and forever withdraw.
So let my soul succumb—my body thaw.

tural standards of the white Americans. The Negro musical shows were far more artistic in the past when they catered chiefly to their own race than today when they are doctored up to suit white Broadway. Roland Hayes sang for years to appreciative colored audiences before England and France had told white America to listen to him. But these are minor criticisms. On the whole, the book is generous in its spirit and full of important material. It is both a text-book and a disquisition.
