Anti-Negro School Strike in Gary Of course, it is the white parents who are using their children in the Gary school "strike" in order to force the few colored pupils out of the high school. They are doing dirty work through their offspring. Just as in the South, those who want to oppress the Negro use the women. When they want to down the Negro in Mississippi, they dodge behind the skirts. But in Gary, Ind., they are hiding under the papers. This is bad training for the young Americans of Gary. It will help neither their respect for law nor their inclination toward fair play. The students could not support a strike without their parents. The young people are ignorant and the parents are foolish.
"Democrats Not Negroes' Friends"
ROCHESTER, N. Y., Oct. 3.—In his speech as temporary chairman of the Republican State Convention Friday, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, speaking of the Negro, had the following to say:
"This country fought the war that gave it its national existence with the slogan, 'No taxation without representation.' It established this principle as a concept of our Government. If such an ideal was so vital as to justify war when applied to the money tax, what must it be when applied to the blood tax? If men who pay the taxes in time of peace to support, the Government are entitled to vote, the men who give their blood in war to defend the nation are doubly entitled to a vote.
"At this time in the nation there are thousands of ex-service men of the last war who are forbidden to vote by the States of which they are citizens. These men live south of the Mason-Dixon line in the Democratic-controlled South. They are denied the vote by the Democrats because they are Negroes.
"It is hypocrisy for the Democratic Party here or anywhere else to pretend that it is the friend of the Negro. At this moment the leader of the Democratic Party in the State aspires to be the nominee of that party for the Presidency. He has professed that he is the friend of the Negroes in this State. If there is sincerity in this profession he should at once publicly demand of his national party justice for the Negroes in the South. He will not do this, because he does not wish to offend the Southern delegates whose votes at the Convention he wants."

USHERS BEAT MAN IN THEATRE ROW
WAS MAYOR WALKER VICTIMIZED BY POLITICAL ENEMIES?
Friends Assert He Was Trailed All Over Europe by Spies Bent on Wrecking His Political Fortunes Again Denies Rome Cabaret Report
On his European tour, from which he returned last Tuesday, was Mayor Walker trailed by spies bent upon wrecking his political fortunes at any cost, or is there still an uneasiness in his mind and a rankling in the Tammany organization over the published report that he objected to the presence of Negroes in the Cabaret Bragaglia in Rome, when he visited that ancient city, which both he and Tammany would like to down?
The report that Mayor Walker had been "shadowed" from the time he left New York City on the Berengarla has been current among his friends ever since his return. The Mayor was said to have been informed of this alleged espionage by half a dozen persons, his first informant having been an Englishman of title and high position, and the last a man holding an official position in Paris.
This information was so direct that friends of the Mayor are said to have spoken to the Paris police about the matter and to have been informed that the Mayor was being "shadowed" by private detectives said to be in the employ of American officials. The Paris police were said to have sent word to Mayor Walker that French detectives had been assigned to watch those who were spying upon the Mayor.
Lilliendahl Case Arrests Promised

Soon after Mayor Walker stepped off the Ile de France last Tuesday, he granted an interview to a reporter from The Amsterdam News, at his residence, No. 6 St Luke's place, down in the Village.
"The report is not only untrue; it is sheer nonsense," he asserted. "In the first place, I didn't have time to go to cabarets while I was abroad. I was too busy. In Paris, however, I went to Josephine Baker's cabaret.
"I never visited any cabaret in Rome or anywhere else, except in Paris, and until now I have never heard of the Cabaret Bragaglia. In the next place, do you think I could have possibly visited cabarets right after being received in Rome by the Pope and the Catholic Church? It is ridiculous."
The Mayor was then given a clipping of the report and story from The Amsterdam News, and he read it aloud.
"Where, your Honor, do you think the story originated?" asked the writer.
"I haven't the slightest idea," he

HAMMONTON, N. J., Oct. 3.—S. Cameron Hinkle, assistant prosecutor of Atlantic County, announced last evening that the evidence in the Lilllendahl murder case would be laid before the Grand Jury during the week. He said that one indictment charging murder against two persons would be sought.
Willis Beach, white, South Vineland poultryman, who is a fugitive under a warrant charging that he aided and abetted the murder of Dr. William Lilllendahl, was still missing tonight.
The hunt for the slayers was stimulated during the day, it was reported, by an offer of $2,000 reward by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People because the slain man's widow said the crime was committed by two colored men.
Mrs. Lilllendahl spoke briefly this morning to newspaper reporters, who had asked her whether she cared to take notice of "insinuations" and gossip directed against her in connection with the investigation of the death of her husband and the friendship of the missing man for the Lilllendahl family.
"All these instuations and all this gossip are lies." she said. "The police should spend their time looking after the Negroes. I am ready and willing at all times to give the police whatever help I can in this investigation."

GARY CAPITULATES TO KU KLUX KLAN IN SCHOOL STRIKE
Emerson High School Students Return When City Council Passes Segregation Measure Over Opposition of Negro Aldermen
GARY, Ind., Oct. 3.—Gary, long a stamping ground of the Ku Klux Klan, has capitulated to that disgraceful organization in the Emerson High School strike situation. The 800 white students, who refused to go to school because twenty-four Negro students had been enrolled, have all returned, flushed with what they term victory, but a victory which may yet cover them and their school and Gary with disgrace.

The testimony surrounding the arrest of Charles Jones, 27, and his wife, Martha, 23, 2531 Eighth avenue, on a charge of disorderly conduct, consumed nearly an hour before Magistrate Earl Smith in Heights Court Monday morning.
Patrolman Wilson of the West 1356 street station arrested the Joneses Friday night at their express office, 2371 Seventh avenue, where Wilson said they abused him and resisted arrest.
Wilson said he found a man asleep in a sedan auto which had been parked for three days without lights near the Jones' office. The records prove James J. Jones,

No punishment faces the strikers, who had held mass meetings, parades and many conferences in the hope of keeping the school "white." They returned on the same basis as those who remained in school.
Over the opposition of the three Negro Aldermen the City Council passed to third reading Thursday night a bill providing for a $15,000 building to house the Negro pupils, all but three of whom were removed from the Emerson School and assigned to temporary quarters in a junior high school.
The striking pupils agreed to let the three Negroes remain, inasmuch as they were seniors and had been there during their entire course.
Gary has fifteen Aldermen, three of whom are Negroes. Three of the white Aldermen were absent, making it impossible for the nine white Aldermen to pass the bill with the required three-fourths majority.

ARGUMENT OVER BALCONY SEAT CAUSES TROUBLE
Victim Removed to Harlem Hospital in Serious Condition Rafe Davis and Leroy Robert Out on Bail
An argument over a seat in the Lafayette Theatre Sunday night is said to have resulted in the serious beating of Joseph Masiah, 28, 228 West 148th street, janitor at P. S. 89, on the part of the entire crew of ushers of the theatre. Masiah was removed in an unconscious condition to the drug store next door to the theatre.

faculty, however, and the measure passed to the third reading. It is common knowledge that all of the white Aldermen are connected with the Klu Klux Klan. At one of the meetings of the strikers hisses and catcalls greeted William A. Wirt, Superintendent of Schools, when he warned the Emerson students that they would be expelled unless they ended their strike. Incidentally, it should be stated that a protest meeting of Negro citizens was broken up by the police before it got started. Some of the proposals of the strikers were: Separate corners in study and recital rooms for Negroes and whites. Separate table in the cafeteria. Barring Negroes from all athletic and social activities. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is taking a hand in the situation and the discriminatory practices instituted may be outlawed.
REV. J. W. BROWN
Pastor
Rafe Davis, 28, 133 West 140th street, Lafayette usher, and Leroy Robert, 39, 44 West 136th street, were arraigned in Heights Court Monday morning before Magistrate Smith, charged with felonious assault upon Masiah. Ball was set at $2,000 for a further hearing today, and they were released on bond.
Davis declares that when Masiah came to the balcony and insisted upon sitting in a loge seat while his ticket called for a balcony seat, Masiah became abusive and struck him. Masiah declares that Davis struck him first. The balcony was crowded and a near panic ensued. One of the balcony ushers tried to part the two men.
The other ushers came up from downstairs to assist in ejecting Maslah from the theatre. Maslah said they threw him downstairs and beat him into unconsciousness. One of the ushers said that most of the beating took place in the lobby. The unconscious man was taken into the neighboring drug store for treatment, and Dr. Ghee was summoned with the ambulance from Harlem Hospital. Dr. Ghee said that Maslah suffered a fractured jaw and a possible fracture of the skull. His jaw was X-rayed Monday afternoon.
Robert got in the fight when he interfered, one of the ushers said. When seen at Harlem Hospital, Maslah was improving. He told a reporter that he also suffered abrasions of the back, and it is said that he also sustained two knife wounds.
Detective Joe Brown of the West 135th street station arrested Robert and Davis, and took them to Harlem Hospital, where Maslah positively identified them as being two of the men who assaulted him. The other ushers he could not positively identify, he said.

Arrested; Man's Auto Is Stolen
After Being Released He Finds It Smashed
Samuel Williams, 31, 172 West 141st street, was arrested in a raid upon a pool room at 68 West 135th street on the night of Sept. 26, at which time he left his Hudson sedan standing in front of the place. When he was released an hour later he found his car damaged, standing in front of 42 West 135th street.
The mystery was solved by William Cox, 45 West 127th street, who told Williams that Thomas Pharr, 26, 16 West 137th street, and a woman companion had gotten into the car and driven off, but ran down a pedestrian and crashed into another automobile at 135th street and Fifth avenue before they returned the car.
Last Wednesday Cox pointed Pharr out to Williams, who summoned Patrolman Burke of the West 135th street station and had him arrested. Pharr was arraigned in Heights Court Saturday and held in $2,000 bail for a further hearing on a charge of grand larceny by Magistrate McQuade.
Ruffian Charged With Using Rough Tactics
If the testimony against them proves true, Hubert Ruffian, 40, and his wife, Jessie, 40, 2208 Fifth avenue, will have lived up to their name, for they are charged with felonious assault upon Samuel Hunt, chauffeur, 129 West 130th street, who testified that Ruffian cut a deep swath in his head with a razor in the hallway of the Ruffians' home Sunday.
Magistrate Smith, sitting in Heights Court, Monday, was obliged to hold Ruffian without bail because of three previous convictions, but admitted Mrs. Ruffian to $1,000 bail, the case to be heard tomorrow.

Arthur Christian, 202 West 1400 street, Steele's alleged slayer, was arrested by Detective Joe Brown of the West 135th street station and lodged in jail without ball on a charge of homicide.
Albert Wiley, also of 202 West 1400 street, a night clerk at the store, was arrested and held as a material witness, and also because both he and Christian denied ownership of the weapon which caused Steele's death.
The police aver that Steele entered the store unarmed but placed his hand in his right coat pocket in pretenso that he had a gun, and held up Christian and Wiley. He reached into the cash register, they said, and took the money.
Just as he was leaving the store, Christian is said to have gone behind the counter and secured a .32 caliber revolver and shot Steele in the arm, abdomen, groin and head, firing four shouts. Steele dropped to the floor unconscious.
Detective Brown, hearing the shots, rushed to the scene and found Steele lying in the doorway. Christian and Wiley were questioned and placed under arrest.
The ambulance was summoned from Harlem Hospital and Steele was removed there, dying one hour and a half later. He never regained consciousness.
Ernest Banks, War Veteran, Dies in Pasi
According to a copyright dispatch to the Herald Tribune, Ernest Banks, the war veteran, who became the first "flapjack" cook in Paris and was known to the Montmartre as a "blues" singer, died Friday at the American Hospital. Banks had never recovered from the effects of gas suffered during the war.
The American was one of the first "blues" singers of the Montmartre, and later made his appearance in the window of the first American quick-lunch restaurant opened in Paris. His funeral was conducted by the Paris Post No. 1, American Legion.
Hotel Employees Freed
Felonious assault was the charge made Friday against William Eensley, 31, 187 West 144th street, and Mary Smith, 25, 2642 Eighth avenue, by William H. Dickson, 59, hotel clerk at 7 West 136th street, in Heights Court before Magistrate McQuade. The defendants were found not guilty and dismissed.
RE-ELECT CONKLIN AT STORMY MEET
Negro Majority of Twenty-first A.D. Turns Down Charles W. B. Mitchell
Negro Majority of Twenty-first A.D. Turns Down Charles W. B. Mitchell
Deputy Attorney General Supported by All White Committeemen and by Hawkins, Warner and Harris Factions for Re-election
Robert S. Conklin, white, Deputy Attorney General and leader of the Twenty-first Assembly District, was again re-elected as permanent chairman of the County Committee by an overwhelming majority at a stormy late afternoon season Thursday at the Manhattan Republican Club, Broadway and 138th street. U. S. Attorney Tuttle presided as temporary chairman.
The name of Charles W. B. Mitchell was placed in nomination by Harold C. Burton to run against Mr. Conklin, who received 76 votes against Mr. Mitchell's 13. Fifty-one of the sixty-four Negroes voted for Mr. Conklin. There were 21 white votes for Mr. Conklin, which clearly indicated that he could have easily been defeated if only~33 Negro votes were had been placed against him.

TWO.
Aaron Smith seconded the nomination of Mr. Conklin by Robert S. Hines. Mr. Smith stated that a review of the permanency of their personnel clearly indicated that they were very reluctant to make any changes. He extolled the virtues of Mr. Conklin and declared that his defeat would wreck the club, and that all records of its achievements would be blotted out.
Mrs. Richard E. Warner said of Mr. Conklin, "I have found him both pleasant and unpleasant, and at times he has even been uncount; but I have never found him to be a bar!" Mrs. Warner then proceeded to stress the need of retaining Mr. Conklin in office.
Following this, Mr. Burton, after expressing his fearlessness of ever being jailed and having to call up on the deputy attorney general to get him out, proceeded to state his reason for opposing Mr. Conklin. He placed in nomination the name of Mr. Mitchell, and said: "I won't appeal to Mr. Conklin's Negroes to support Mr. Mitchell. And it is natural that I won't appeal to the whites, for their racial pride will give their votes to Mr. Conklin.
"But I would appeal to the fair-minded Negro who has some racial pride. I oppose Mr. Conklin because he is opposed to the wishes of the Negro people. I will not say that you all are crooks or that you will all accept bribes, but I do hope that you are decent and respectful enough, that you are not so white (meaning the Negroes present) as to forget your race." Mr. Mitchell's nomination was seconded by Arthur E. Francis, who said:
"The Negro is in the majority in the Twenty-first Assembly District and I can see no reason for not having a Negro leader. The Negro is usually led by the white man.
"Some say that white people won't stand for Negro leadership. That is not so. It is only a matter of votes, and the Negro's vote is as good as the white man's vote.
"My second reason for opposing Mr. Conklin is that during the years he has held the leadership among colored people in this district he should have learned some thing of their problems, which he should have been able to solve if he had the political sagacity with which he has been accredited. Instead of learning something about us and our problems, he has, through a series of political maneuvers, contrived to debate this fact.
"He has instigated strife among

"SHE WASN'T WANTED"
I'm thinking of a young girl who lives
in a small middle Western town. She is
healthy, intelligent, and industrious—yet
she is not popular. Encouraging to behi-
her, I requested her picture. She sent it
gladly. Then I learned of her trouble.
Her complexion was muddy and blotched; her hair was wet and did not apply her round and lipstick property. Poor girl—her case is typical of women who do not improve their birthright of beauty. To others I'm happy to give, again, my smile. She is presently that she was growing in popularity.
Each morning use a high grade soap (Golden Brown), then rinse the face, neck, and hands thoroughly. Next apply a superbly fine vanishing cream as a protective and powder base. (Golden Brown Vanishing Cream is acknowledged to be a superior preparation.) At night nourish skin tissues with a pure, creamy cream. But I warn you, use only the very intense, oblivious, massage this cream into the cleansed skin, using an upward and outward motion. The skin responds pleasantly with a tingling sensation this nightly. The benefits are many—especially for pure a cream as Golden Brown is used.
These treatments encourage a light brown complexion. Often, however, to quench a light brown color, an ointment is used, because some skins are unhealthy and slow to recover from blotches, pimples, and blackheads. The instant beneficial action of ointment is then needed. For this purpose an ointment like Golden Brown is
us; he has created among us a number of factions and has kept these factions fighting each other, and kept us from organizing. Why did he do this? Because he knew it would be dangerous for us to get together!
"Mr. Conklin, if he had been truly interested in our problems, could have welded us together and prevented the loss of our aldermen and assemblymen.
"For these reasons, I hope you will support, Mr. Mitchell."
"Ladies and gentlemen, I had proposed not to open my mouth," said Edgar M. Grey, who took the floor with an ominous air of grave portent. "We must be fair to ourselves if we expect others to be fair to us."
Having thus opened his address, Mr. Grey proceeded from a solemn calm to a vivid and electric storm of protest against the election of Mr. Mitchell, calling down upon himself the verbal wrath of the Mitchell faction almost to the point of wild disorder.
"The object of this meeting, I understand, is not to elect a Negro leader. They have had four years in which to do that and have never even attempted it, so black leadership was not their object.
"Charles W. B. Mitchell has gone down in the 'valley' and said time and time again that he was fighting for black leadership, but he hasn't done a thing to bring about this effort. There has been nothing but strife for the past four years on the part of that organization." After being placed in office again, Mr. Conklin arose to thank his supporters, and to express no ill will against his opponents. "For twenty-five years," he said, "the greatest thing in my life has been to go to bed and sleep soundly with a clear conscience. I know that no one has anything on me.
"The statements that have been made here this evening have really been astonishing to me. For I have devoted years of effort to bring about harmony among you and to bring together the discordant elements.
"I have been accused here of prostituting my office; but I want to reply that I have never approached anyone at any time to influence them in any way. There is no foundation whatever upon which to outrage my actions.
"I think that we should temper our actions with moderation, especially before we make accusations."

Grenthal Re-elected in Nineteenth District
Advocating increased zeal on the part of ward leaders, Assemblyman Abraham Grenthal urged this as a means of increasing the Republican vote in the Nineteenth assembly district, at a meeting held at the Central Republican club, 22 West 124th street, Wednesday evening last.
The county committee had convened to elect an executive county committeeman and other officials for the next two years. Mr. Grenthal received a unified vote of confidence, and was re-elected to succeed himself as executive committeeman from the district.
Although the Negro vote was almost entirely in control, the officers were elected on a fifty-fifty basis. Charles W. Andersqv was chosen associate leader; Ruth Jones, secretary, and Mrs. Lucy Freeman as one of the associate women leaders.
Besides Grenthal, the minority was also represented by the new treasurer, Max Prince, and by Mrs. Margaret Fitzsimmons as female co-leader. The entire cabinet will retain office until September, 1929, as under a new ruling of the Republican State Committee, which went into effect this year, the tenure of offices in the assembly district is now two years.
Koenig Retained
Samuel S. Koenig was elected chairman of the New York Republican County Committee for the seventeenth time at Bryant Hall Wednesday night. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, made a brief address on world politics in which he declared that the Republican party, to survive successfully, must demonstrate the possession and exercise of political courage and supplement this quality with performance of real service—and all would be well with it for the next generation.

replied. "When the story broke I was two weeks out of Rome. The first news of it came to me from the New York Evening Post. Then The World sent me a cablegraph asking if the story was true. I wired back that it was all nonsense. I was never so surprised in my life."
The cable from Rome concerning the incident appeared in the Progresso Italo-Americano, an Italian daily newspaper published in this city at 42 Elm street, in its issue of Sept. 13. A translation of the story appeared in The Amsterdam News.
Both the New York Times and the Herald-Tribune published reports Monday morning that the State Department at Washington may be asked to investigate charges that Mayor Walker was the victim of persistent espionage.
Mayor Seeing Things, Washington Believes
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3. — The State Department has received no request for an investigation of the alleged shadowing of Mayor Walker of New York while he was in Europe, and its only knowledge of his activities is that every facility of the American embassies and consulates was afforded him. Reports from New York had it today that among other things an attack of the American Embassy in London had three men trailing Walker when he was there. If there is a request for an investigation the department will be glad to make one.
Any intimation that American diplomatic representatives would have had anything to do with an attempt to "frame" the Mayor in a compromising situation was characterized as pure nonsense, and department officials feel that some enthusiastic friends of the Mayor are seeing things.
Story Will Have Disastrous Effect
Whether true or false, John Clifford Hawkins, former assemblyman and Republican candidate for alderman in the Twenty-first Aldermann district, says the Rome incident will have a disastrous effect on the Democratic vote in Harlem.
"There is no question that Mayor Walker has shown his inaptitude for people of the darker races by his actions in Rome. Notwithstanding his denial, there is a ring of truth to the statement of Antonio Bragaglia, whose story makes the mayor's offense even worse, since it tends to show that his racial dislike to Negroes is confined mainly to the American

Negro, because when told that the black people who were dancing with white women were from South America he seemed less disposed to object." Coupled with the damaging story, Hawkins said that Harlem would likely be entirely recalled by the Republican party because the present administration of Tammany Hall had not adequately considered the needs and necessities of Harlem, nor had the health and social conditions of the Negroes been properly cared for.
Hawkins is being opposed for the office by the present Democratic elderman, Henri Shields. Asked why the people of Harlem should support him in preference to the present incumbent, the Republican candidate said that he considered himself more progressive and more qualified for the office in view of the fact, as he stated, Alderman Shields has had two years in which to do something for the community, but has failed to do one thing. If he is elected, Hawkins added, his time and energy will be spent in the betterment and improvement of his district.
When he was an assemblyman, Hawkins got through the first Municipal Court district bill. In 1919, when Senator Gibbs had a boxing bill that failed to limit the powers of the proposed boxing commission so that it could not legally restrict Negroes, Hawkins succeeded in having the bill killed in the Assembly committee. He was prominent in the introducing and passing of the rent laws, whereby the people of Harlem have been saved thousands of dollars in rents; and he voted for Sunday movies and baseball and against the ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment.
Referring again to The Amsterdam News story, Hawkins said that the inner circles of Tammany Hall are bitter over its publication and that it will take some tall explanation on the part of Walker to straighten the matter out.
Elevator Man Recovering After Heights Gas Blast

how the explosion was caused re-
mains somewhat of a mystery. It
is believed, however, that the jet-

the room became filled with gas
and that a match struck later to
light the gas caused the blast.

said to be the brother of Charles,
as owner of the car. He awakened
the man Wilson said, and asked
whose car it was. "Mr. Jones'
car," the man replied, "and he said
I could sleep here."
Wilson then questioned the
Joneses, he said, and they denied
ownership. He left the premises
and returned with the "car lodger,
and said, "This man says you own
the car," speaking to Mrs. Jones,
who again denied it. Mrs. Jones
testified that at this point Wilson
struck her in the mouth and
knocked her up against the office
desk. She screamed, and her husband came down into the basement office.
Jones declares that Wilson had drawn his gun, and he then went to Wilson and pinned his arms to his sides to prevent him from shooting. Harold Moore and Haywood Brown, employees of the Jones, corroborated the Joneses' testimony, but no one was able to explain how Patrolman Wilson was badly bruised on the knee and elbow. Wilson said the bruises were sustained when Jones held him and pushed him violently against the

SWINDLED OUT OF BORROWED MONEY
Victim Craft Harlem and Went All the Way to Virginia to Get $1,500
Amount Was to Be Used as Security for Similar Amount He Was to Be Entrusted With by New "Friend"
An astounding story of an alleged swindle, in which the victim was induced to leave Harlem and go to Varginia to borrow $1,500, which, he says, was taken from him, was disclosed in Harlem Court on Saturday before Magistrate Vitale.

An astounding story of an alleged swindle, in which the victim was induced to leave Harlem and go to Virginia to borrow $1,500, which, he says, was taken from him, was disclosed in Harlem Court on Saturday before Magistrate Vitale.
As a result, Lorenzo Robinson, 86, 161 West 144th street, where he conducts a dress shop, was held without ball for further hearing on a charge of grand larceny.
William F. Shorts, a truckman, 331 West Sixty-ninth street, said that he parted with $1,500 as a result of an envelope switch made by Robinson and another man now being sought by police.
for grand larceny in Pittsburgh.
He was fined $50 in New Rochelle in 1926 for attempted swindling and was freed of a robbery charge later in the same year. This year he was arrested twice, both cases now pending against him.
A police investigation is under way to determine if Robinson participated in other alleged swindles.
Shorts said that Robinson introduced him to the unknown man who asked if Shorts would take care of $1,500 for him. Shorts agreed. He was asked to deposit the money in a Harlem bank. As security, he was asked for an equal sum of $1,500. Robinson and the unknown man paid his fare to Virginia to get the money. Shorts said. When he returned, the total of $3,000 was put in an envelope and Shorts went to the bank to deposit it. When he got there, he says he found nothing in the envelope but paper. Robinson, he says, changed the envelope when he was not looking. Robinson was arrested in West Lake Court, where he had just been released in $5,000 bail by Magistrate Ewald on a similar charge.
Detectives Cosgrove and Dougherty of the East 104th street station arrested Robinson. The alleged transaction took place at Ninetieth street and Lexington avenue. Robinson, according to police, has a criminal record dating back to 1918 when he was sentenced to seven months in the penitentiary

When questioned Monday by Detective Christiano, Miss Bowles refused to make any statement, apparently not caring to press the charge against Eldridge, with whom the police say she had been living.
Eldridge was arraigned before Magistrate Smith the same day, and held in $3,000 ball on a charge of felonious assault. He will have a hearing Oct. 10.

Detective Sergeant Battle of the West 135th street station apprehended Armstead and Oxford on complaint of Veannie Sloan and Louise Bailey, who said they had been "shaken down" by the two men who represented themselves as police officers and threatened to arrest them for running a "bad house."
Thomas was arrested in the courtroom where he had come to learn the fate of his companions. Hattle Ward, 202 West 130th street, pointed him out as the man who had "shaken her down" for $25 on a threat of arrest for violating the Volstead Act. He was immediately arrested by Detective Kammerer of the West 123d street station, and a charge of extortion drawn up in the complaint room.
Cook, Ex-Convict, Held in Robbery
Crawford Daniels Also Charged With Sullivan Law Violation
Charged with robbery and having a gun unlawfully in his possession, Crawford Daniels, 33, a cook, 125 West 133d street, was held without bail for the Grand Jury on both charges, when arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in Heights Court Friday.
Amos T. Burrell, 133 West 126th
street, testified that while ascending the stairway to the second floor of 140 West 140th street, where he had gone to visit friends last Tuesday night, Daniels and another man, not yet arrested, followed him and caught hold of him, placing their hands over his mouth. "Don't holier; and don't touch that door," they are said to have warned just as Daniels was about to ring the apartment bell.
He then smashed Daniels with a stiff right to the jaw, he said, and Daniels then drew a gun, stuck him up, robbed him, and hit him over the head with the butt of the revolver. Burrell said he was treated at Harlem Hospital.
The men escaped and Detective Brown was notified at the West 135th street station. Daniels was arrested at 73 West 133d street on the fourth floor, where the detective said he found a .32-calibre re-

This week sees the opening of clubs and classes in the West 137th street branch. Everybody has come back with zest and interest to see how much can be gained this year through study, discussion, swimming, song, play or whatever means of stimulation each one chooses.

Definite plans were laid for all kinds of things—dramatics, music, swimming, discussion groups, dancing, study of international questions, many other topics of interest, and for lots of sheer fun and play.

THREATEN JAMAICA RESIDENT'S LIFE
BURN CROSS IN FRONT OF HOME OF U.S. EMPLOYEE
Purchasing of Homes in Better Sections of Jamaica, Long Island, Believed to Have Aroused Whites
Stirred by the large influx of Negro families who are moving into the homes which they are purchasing in sections of Jamaica, Long Island, where Negroes have never yet lived, some one resorted to that time-worn method of frightening by burning a cross in front of the home of Robert L. Avant, 143-50 Ferndale avenue, Jamaica. Sunday morning. This was followed with an unsigned letter to Avant on Wednesday, in which they warned him that continuance to live there might mean death.
SIX
Avant, who, together with his wife and three children, moved from his Harlem apartment to the Jamaica home which he purchased through the firm of Max Fisch of 104-12 sutphin boulevard on Friday, September 18, was awakened early Sunday morning by a blaze directly in front of his porch. He investigated and found on the sidewalk a large cross, about six feet high and four feet across, erected on a basboard, crisply burning. The Police Department was notified at once and two policemen were sent around. They dragged the charred cross to the street, but were unable to locate anyone in the neighborhood at that hour. At the Jamaica Headquarters the police said that they would patrol the street, but no police were noticed on patrol following the episode.
LETTER WARNED
OF DEATH.
Wednesday Avant received the
following letter through the mail
it was printed in handwriting.
"To the Present: Property Owner
148-33 Ferndale Avenue."
"You have noticed the Flery Cross. You noticed what happened to your car. White among white. We tolerate no intermingling. What's next—maybe death.
"TAKE HEED; TAKE HEED."
Avant took the letter to the Police Department, who were inclined to treat it lightly. They said they had a number of similar cases but that nothing had ever happened and they advised Avant to simply ignore it. They added that, should any clue of the author be obtained, action would be taken against the writer.
DISTRICT FORMERLY
ALL WHITE.
The house which Avant purchased, a sixroom frame structure, built nine months ago, is the only one in that block occupied by Negroes. In the vicinity, however,

burned nor threatening letter received.
The stupidity of the writer of the letter is reflected in his reference to the car. Avant's brother-in-law, James Blackman, who resides in Brooklyn, was on his way to the Jamalea home when his auto met with an accident Saturday. Blackman brought the car to Avant's home, where it has since remained awaiting repairs. The letter-writer must have been under the impression that the car was Avant's and that it had been in an accident brought about through some foul means.
Robert L. Avant is a postal clerk attached to the mailing division of the General Post Office, where he has been employed eight years. He was overseas with the 367th infantry and saw active service in France. He comes of an excellent family in South Carolina and is not of the type easily scared. In the post office he holds a good record and is generally liked by his superiors and fellow employees. He has expressed a determination not to be frightened and to see anything through which someone may start.
Investigation so far conducted tends to show that the work was the part of some individual or individuals rather than that of the Ku Klux Klan, although that organization is particularly strong throughout Long Island.
Arrested when she is said to have attempted to suffocate Ellenor Davishn, 202 West 125th street, Lillian Rollins, 25, of the same address, was arraigned in Heights Court Thursday and found not guilty and dismissed by Magistrate McQuade.

(Freston News Service.)
BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 3.—A cablegram just received by the American board of commissioners for foreign missions announces the death of Mrs. Mary K. "Mother" Edwards, the oldest missionary of the board. Death came Saturday at her home in Indiana, Natal, South Africa.
"Mother" Edwards was 98 years old and a native of Ohio. She served as an active missionary for fifty-two years. She sailed for Africa in 1869 as the first missionary sent out by the women's board of missions, now a part of the American board. In the same year she founded Indiana seminary, now the oldest school for Zulu girls in Natal.

Alleged whiskey taken as a stimulant a few hours after she had given birth to a child caused the death at midnight, Thursday, of Mrs. Martha Smith, 47, of 596 Grand street, Jersey City, and efforts are being made by the police to trace the sellers of the liquor, two men whose names are not known.
Israel Smith, husband of the woman, went to the barber shop of Migorts Picross on the first floor of the Grand street address and told Walter Wise, barber in charge of the shop, that Mrs. Smith had given birth to a child and was in a weakened condition. Smith expressed the wish to obtain a small quantity of whiskey for his wife and two men in the shop at the time offered to sell him a half pint. Smith bought the whiskey and re-

SECOND SECTION
Says Negroes Here Ignore Franchise
Democratic Assembly Candidate so Declares at Church Forum
George E. Hall, candidate for the Assembly on the Democratic ticket in the Nineteenth Assembly District, speaking at the Sunday evening service at the Grace Congregational Church, said that the Negroes of New York do not want the franchise, and that this lack of interest on the part of Negroes of New York in their political welfare is doing much to hinder their economic and social development. "Politically speaking, very little respect is held for the Negro in New York," he said. "Out of a population of 250,000 Negroes," said the speaker, "there are less than 22,000 Negroes who are qualified to vote. The Negroes have enough to elect their own judges, and in the coming election the race hero in New York has the greatest opportunity that it has ever had in electing a judge in the Seventh Judicial District."
The speaker cited Chicago as an example where the Negro showed that he wanted the franchise and said that out of 350,000 Negroes of Chicago there were 50,000 or more qualified to vote.
"The Negroes of New York should have a vote of not less than 75,000, and this year every qualified man and woman ought to see it that he or she registers. We cannot command the respect and consideration that we deserve unless we show a greater interest in our political welfare."
The service at the church was "Lawman's Night" and was arranged by the Rev. Dr. A. C. Garner, the pastor, as one of the new features of the church program, to have matters of civic interest discussed, and to bring the church in closer touch with the community. Miles A. Palge presided.
DR. J. MILTON WILLIAMS has removed to 105 Edgecombe Ave. at 10th St. 8 to 10 A.M., 1 to 2 P.M. 6 to 3 P.M. Phone: Bradhurst 2923. (Advt.)

Medical Society Dissolves in N. J.
Physicians, Dentists and Pharmacists to Be Separate Bodies
After, a continued existence for twenty years the North Jersey Medical Association composed of physicians, dentists and pharmacists was recently dissolved. A resolution to bring about this effect was passed by the society at its meeting in August. Peculiarly enough, this dissolution was the result of a condition which does not prevail with many organizations. It was found that the organization had become too large to function properly, and it was deemed admirable, after much consideration, to separate into distinct organizations. In the future there will be three societies composed respectively of physicians, dentists and pharmacists.
On last Wednesday evening the physicians, who have been identified with the organization, met and reorganized as the North Jersey Medical Society, Dr. William H. Washington of Newark and Dr. George E. Bell of Montclair, who had acted as president and secretary respectively of the old organization, were elected to the same position. Purple as selected as treasurer, the committees on constitution and bylaws and program were appointed. The newly formed group of physicians will have its first regular meeting in October at the home of Dr. H. S. Palmer in Newark.

Walker, The Ambassador
The honors that were showered upon Mayor James J. Walker of New York during his visit to England, Ireland, Germany, Italy and France are really a compliment to the American people.
New York's Mayor has been another Lindbergh in the manner in which he has cemented international good will. Wherever he has gone, old world notables and high government officials, but even more than this, the people themselves, have delighted to do him honor. The Mayor's ready wit, his attractive personality, his youth and his keen grasp of public questions have attracted attention and aroused admiration everywhere.
Mayor Walker is a living example of the opportunities that men of all races find in America. The son of an Irish immigrant, this chief executive of the world's greatest city typifies the spirit of our country and the awards that America bestows upon the able and deserving.
It is good for Europe to have had a chance to look Mayor, Walker over and it is well that Mayor Walker went to Europe, for his trip has bound closer than ever those ties of blood and tradition which link America—the great melting pot of all races—to the peoples of the world.

Douglas Makes Announcement of Start of Basketball Season Here
Popular Manager States That Slocum Will Lead Renaissance Team Against Crack Bronx Hebrew Giants, but Is Noncommittal on Full Lineup to Take Court at Renaissance Casino October 16
The first official announcement of the start of the 1927-28 basketball season is being made today through the columns of this paper and by no less an authority than the genial and popular "Bob" Douglas, manager of the Renaissance Five, which for the past few seasons continued to set the standard for colored professional teams all over the country. The local team will take the court against the far-famed Bronx Hebrew Giants, one of the most popular, white teams that ever tried conclusions with the colored champions. The game will be at the old home court at the Renaissance Casino and the colored players will again be led into action by Captain Hilton Slocum, one of the most dependable basketball players developed in this part of the country.

RENAISSANCE STARTS SEASON OCT. 16 Salmon Robbed of Bout With Abrahams
few days before the start of the regular season. Douglas, wise in the way of things basketballian, usually decides upon his men after their tryouts.
The Hebrews are coming to Laramie with a reputation of which colored basketball fans appear to be fully aware, for they are given an unusually warm welcome the moment they take the court. Manager Douglas gave it as his opinion that the present season will be as hard as the last, in that his team will be forced to meet some of the toughest opposition in trying to maintain the splendid record which it has written in the sacred looks of basketball achievement during his past few years.
This paper will not attempt to anticipate the manager of the team by voicing any opinion on the personnel, but will give to readers the first official announcement of the regular lineup to go through with the season's work against the best teams of the opposite race.
LIVINGSTONE BEATS POTTER
North Carolina Bears Opened Season by Auspicious Win
SALISBURY, Oct. 1.—The Livingstone Bears opened the season with a bung today on their grillron when they defeated the Mary Potter team 33-0. Due to the intense heat, both teams were slow in starting as can be seen by the fact that Mary Potter held the Bears to a scoreless tie in the first quarter. This did not last long, however, as the Bears broke loose in the second quarter and scored twice; one was on a blocked kick that Watking covered and ran 32 yards for a touchdown; the second touchdown was the culmination of a series of forward passes from Butler to Berry. Both points after touchdown were made by Smith. This play ended the half.
The Bears came back in the second half in a fighting mool. This was shown by two touchdowns being made in rapid succession; one by Daniels and one by Randall. The other high light of the game was the 43 yard run of MacManus of Livingstone after blocking a Potter kick.
Mary Potter played a fine brand of ball in the third quarter and tore big holes in the Livingstone line; this, however, did not last as the Bears' line stiffened. Too much credit cannot be given to Loggins, Sullivan and Smith of Mary Potter for their stellar playing. Daniels and Randall gained ground consistently for the Bears. On to Howard is the battle cry now.

SALMON BEAT ABRAHAMS
---
But the Judges Could Not See It That Way
Gus Abrahams, of the Holy Name Club, won the judges' decision over Lemuel Salmon, of the Salem-Crescent A. C., in the final of the 147-pound class of the metropolitan amateur championship boxing tournament at Madison Square Garden last Thursday night.
An extra round was necessary before the judges could decide who was the victor. The crowd seemed to think that Salmon had the better of it in the first three rounds, but the margin was not great and another round was called for. In this session Abrahams came back a bit, but his colored opponent meted out some telling body punishment and the verdict was not a popular one.
Peter Meyer, an unattached battler, was the victor in the final of the heavyweight division, defeating Gus Rodenberg, also unattached, by a technical knockout after two minutes and 45 seconds of the third round. A left to Rodenberg's nose drew a rather free flow of claret from the damaged proscisol and this, coupled with a knockdown shortly after, caused the referee to halt the contest.
In the light heavyweight class, Henry Nealon, of the Paulstur A.C., defeated Joseph Sturlin, of the K. of C. Boys' Club, receiving the judge's decision at the end of three rounds. Sturlin was not entirely recovered from his strenuous efforts in gaining a technical knockout victory over Walter Ulrich in the semi-finals. Nealon had him groggy in the final stanza and was clearly entitled to the decision.
The bout between Gene Cue, of the Paulist A. C. and Larry Hogan, of the Salem-Crescent A. C. the middleweight final, was a slugfest. Cue slugged Hogan all around the ring, cutting him up badly about the face and sending him to the floor three times during the course of the battle.
In the 138-pound class final, Lou Lubbers, of the Holy Name Club, earned the judges' decision over Tony Rizzo, of the Bronxdale A. C. This bout was a good replica of the recent Dempsey-Tunney fuss in Chicago, with Rizzo continually boring in, head bent low, and Lubbers keeping him at a safe distance with stinging left jabs and hard over-hand rights.
In the 112-pound class final, Sam Gelber, of Seward's Gym, defeated Mickey Carlo, also of Seward's Gym, in a lively scrap. George White of the Yorkville Boys' Club received the verdict over Frank Marchese, unattached, in the final of the 128-pound class.

HECTIC NIGHT FOR AMATEURS
Joe Garret Defeated by Pete Caesar While Eddie Wilson Went Out
Pete Caesar, junior amateur lightweight king of America and senior titleholder of New York State, easily disposed of Joe Garret in the feature scrap of the Long Island College Hospital bouts in the Coney Island Stadium last Thursday night, Caesar, thought to be on the down grade because of an unlooked-for reverse at the hands of some unknown last week, fought a great battle and punched Garret into such a state that the referee intervened late in the second frame
Caasar danced around Garret immediately following the bell and worried the dusky lad with a lightning-like left jab to the head and a torrid right to the stomach that followed. The fight had hardly gone a minute when Caesar landed on Garret's jaw, flooring the latter for nine. Garret got up dazed, but managed to keep away from Caesar's wicked shots till a moment before the bell. As the bell sounded, however, Peter shot a right that hit Garret flush on the jaw. The colored boy fell to the floor and had to be assisted to his corner. It was all Caasar in- the second until Referee John Gaddy interfered.
Eddie Wilson, of the Carlton Y. M. C. A., and Joe Mayo, Central K. of C., hooked up in a lively three-rounder in one of the 183-pound class preliminaries. Wilson seemed to have the better of it up to the third round, when Mayo suddenly awoke. He torre into Wilson and cuffed him about with rights and lefts to the face, sending him out of the ring with a wild hook. Wilson got up at nine, however, and got the verdict. Wilson was a knockout victim in the finals, falling before the herculean attack of Paul Kunick, a two-fisted Pier 6 battler
The second special failed in bringing the interest and enthusiasm of the Cacear-Garret embrogliol Tommy Syracuse, one of the four: St. Bartholomew Club battlers to show his wares, won the decision from Rube Simmons, of the Salem-Crescent Club. The bout was a slow and drawn-out affair, the verdict being a just one. The summary:
113-Pound Class—Eddie Albright, Y. M. C. A. knocked out Joe Ruth,eward Gym, first round. George Terra, Trinity Club, defeated Iyze Cohen, Stunich's Gym, three rounds., St Bartholomew, A. C., knocked out Peter Torrel, unattached, first round Maxie Gold, unattached, defeated Fields, Beescher's Club, three rounds.
138-Pound Class—Eddie Wilson, Carlton Y. M. C. A., defeated Joe Maye, Central Knights of Columbus, St. Bartholomew, A. C., defeated Marco Picello, Trinity Club, three rounds.

ROYALS LOSE TO HARRISBURG
ROYALS LOSE TO HARRISBURG
Old - Fashioned Pitchers' Duel Is Enacted at Dexter Park
After leading for six innings the Brooklyn Royal Giants lost to the Harrisburg, Pa., at Dexter Park, last Tuesday by a score of 7 to 3. Frequent errors marred the play of both teams. For five stanzas the contest had all the appearance of a genuine imitation of an old-fashioned pitcher's duel. The Royals obtained one run in the first frame on a double by Cleo Smith and a single by his namesack. Charlie, but with the exception of this outbreak, Lefty Flournoy, of the Royals, and Cooper, of the Harrisburg outfit, twirled brilliant ball for those first five innings.
Cleo Smith started the trouble with a single to right in the sixth inning. He reached second on Dickson's poor handling of the ball out in center field and scored on Charlie Smith's triple to deep left center. Incidentally, had it not been for three fielding misplays. Charle would have been the outstanding star of the festivities. As it turned out, he was not. He did, however, score when Brook's grounder was fumbled by Cooper. Incensed by this presumptious-

ness, and realizing that they were on the short end of a 3 to 0 count, the Harrisburg sluggers came through with a rally in the seventh that netted four runs, just enough to clinch the old bacon. Perez walked to start it off and scored on Beckwith's two-bagger. Beckwith rode home a moment later on Charleston's single. Canada followed with another single that sent Charleston to third and then stoleole. Dickson poled out a fly to Brooks and when the latter's throw-in to the plate went wild, both Charleston and Canady scored.
Cleo Smith was the leading batter of the day, getting three safeties in four times at bat, one of them a double. Harrisburg collected only seven safe blows, one more than the Royals, but these wallops were effectively coupled with errors of omission and commission on the part of the losers. The score:

Dave Cooper held the Bushwicks to five hits in the opener, while the Giants, led by Johnson, Beckwith and Canady, banged Stanley (Lefty) Baumgartner for 13 hits and 9 runs in 7 1-3 innings. Bill Hockenbury and Mungin were the opposing pitchers in the second game. Hockenbury was hit harder than his rival, but Muhgin really twirled good ball after a bad start and might have won had he been treated to better support in the field.
Johnson, Harrisonburg left, helders, was the hitting star of both games. He was the first to get up nine times, with two of his blows in the opener good for four bases and one in the second good for threeacks. Although one of his four-base wallops was a field hit, Johnson's feat of hitting two homers in one game was quite a remarkable one, as it was the first time it has been done in the big Woodhaven ball park in several seasons. Eddie Gerner made it a double, and it at 15,000 by hitting a homer over the right field fence that sent the Bushwicks off to a firing start in the nightcap.
The Bushwicks got the first run scored in the inpper, but it was all they got. Patty Smith, the Earl Smith of semi-pro catchers, who within the last two months has changed from a weak sister with the bat into a consistent hitter, opened the Dexter Parkers half of the third with a single to center. He moved to second on Baumgartner's sacrifices and raced across the plate when Buck Lelg singled to midfield.
Harrisburg took back this run in the fourth when, with one out, Charleston got a base on a fumble by the Caucasus singled to right; Charleston scored when letting tossed out Johnson. The Glants forced to the front in the seventh, when Johnson opened the frame with a wallop over Carter's head in center that was good for a round trip.
Two Hlt Safely Twice.
In the next frame Harrisburg added insult to injury, getting seven runs that were subsequently proyed unnecessary. Dixon opened the fireworks with a single and then died stealing. Beckwith then tripled and Charleston walked, Canday scoring the pair with a single. Johnson then lifted the ball over the right field fence for his second home. Day walked and then went to second when Gomez rolled to Barnes. Dave Cooper singled, scoring Day, after which Perez beat out a hit, to Weiss. Dixon singled, for the second time in this frame, and Joe Kaiser replaced Baumgartner in the box. Beckwith then greeted Kaiser with his second blow of the inning, a single that tailed Perez, Charleston flied to Kewpie Dean for the third out.
In the next cap Harrisburg took up where it left off by tallying one run in the first inning, Perez

After Barnes walked, Gerner drove the ball over the left field force. Harrisburg came back with one in the third. Successive singles by Canada and Johnson, a pass to Day, followed by Gomez's infield out, manufactured the marker. With one out in the Bushwick's fourth, Hockenburg got a base on Day's bad throw and Lai beat out a bit to third. The pair worked "home" and "seat" and Hockenburg raced home to Gomez made a poor throw to Bushwick at second. Lai stole home with Beckwitt foolishly holding the ball. With two out in the sixth, Johnson tripled to deep left and Beck with singled to give Harrisburg its third and last run.

Posey and Company Breeze In
Like a zephyric breeze on a hot summer's day, Messrs "See" Posey, "Cum" Posey and that old stalwart court man, the one and only "Youngie" blew into the office of The Amsterdam News midnight of Monday, October 3. The trio had again engineered another victory over our own Lincoln Giants the previous day at the Catholic Protectory Oval. Our Cumberland has taken, on weight. Youngie is a litter more muscular, while "See" is the same little heavy whose frame laid many a man low in the days when they were foolhardy enough to bunk into him while chasing the elusive sphere. That famous incident of bygone days, wherein the watch did a disappearing act at Manhattan Casino, was hilariously gone over, and, like in the past, it was nothing but good fellowship that prevailed.
Our admiration for Cumberland Posey as an athlete is strong enough to induce us to put behind all differences and let Cumberland know that we, and we only, reserve the right to pan him when panning is in order, never allowing any other newspaper man to dare to take issue with our friend of the past. Cumberland has made great strides-with his Homestead Grays and he has met with the success that can only go to those who bring the intelligence displayed by Posey in managing a regular baseball team.
Yes, sir, we'll pan you, Pittsburghians, from time to time, but when you hit this town and drop in to pay your respects, you are welcome, thrice welcome, and we want you to believe us when we say that we are willing to take issue with any man, woman or child in this town who would dare assert he or she is more glad to see you old gladiators than we are.

Morris Brown Bows to Morehouse in Slow Game, 6=0
BY C. L. REYNOLDS
ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 1—The Maroon Tide kicked the lid off the '72 football season by copting the opening tilt from the Morris Brown Whirlwind here today 6-0. The Morehouse second team held its own during the first quarter, crashing the Morris Brown line at will but were unable to gain in the pinches. The first team scored in the second frame when Quarter back Moseley punted 45 yards to Campfield who was downed on his 30 yard line. The Morris Brown punt was blocked. Eberhardt of Moseley blocked a 28 yard pass Moseley to McNatt gave the Maroon and White crew their only tally of the afternoon. Moseley failed to annex the extra by drop kick.
A midsummer sun showered it rays mercilessly on the poor warriors, and the dusty field choked the spectators at every down. The game was the slowest ever witnessed on a local gridron; frequent substitutions by both coaches repeated pleas for measured distance, unnecessary delays by orifice, and the need for penalties on almost every down made the affair the laughing stock of the assemblage.
The Morris Brown eleven showed well on defense, but resorted to permissible punting when in possession of the pligskin, falling to make a single first down while the Morehouse aggregation netted eleven, despite the 130 yards collected by officials in penalties, Warren, Bailey and White featured the Whirlpool叉 men trained by Coach Harvey, Lattimore, Cooke, Lewis, Garrison, Moseley and Brown deserve special mention for playing Morehouse Position M.

Belated Rally in Eighth Stopped by Pittsburghers
The Homestead Grays made their second invasion of New-York the past-Sunday and defeated the Lincoln Giants in both games of a double header. In the first game the local team placed their dependence on Phil Cockrell, pitching ace for Hilldale, and Cockrell was way off form.
The Grays won this contest by a score of 18-5 for five innings. The visitors put the game on ice in the third inning when "Bizz" Mackey started a batting rally in which the team batted around. When Mackey batted over the second time in this inning he hit a home run with the bases filled. This gave the visitors 8 runs for this one inning.
Joe Williams, who pitched the first three innings for his team, retired from the game after his team had gotten such a big lead. The second game was more closely contested. Rector and Lefty Williams were the opposing pitchers, with Williams having the advantage over the local moundman. The final score was 7-5. The team completed a belated rally in the eighth inning when Mason hit a home run, but the three following batters failed to follow his example.

Dear Sir:
There is little real fun today and your column in The World should add to the galley of nations. True, you cover a vast amount of ground and, since no man knows everything, occasionally your superficial treatment of a subject gives me a great joy.
The superior white American took great pleasure in acclaiming Stephen Foster the greatest writer of Negro songs, although "Swance River," "Old Black Joe," etc. are more Scotch than Negro. Jim Bland, a Negro, from Washington, D. C., about 1865, who wrote hundreds of real Negro folk songs such as "Garry Me Back to Old Virginny," "Iee Gwine Back to Dixile," "Christmas Dinner," etc. is not known, though I have heard his songs in France, Germany, Russia, as well as the fairest of all nations.
Too long has this exploitation of Negro bodies and talent by white men seeking the limelight been tolerated.
Maybe "The Lamb" is the only Negro composition you have had time to hear. You are a very busy man. Maybe, if you ask your music dealer for "Song of the Cotton Field" (Porter Grainger), "Swing Along," "Rain Song," Exhortation," "On Emancipation Day," "Lovers Lane" and others, you might find them Negro. The World has!
Please, Mr. Mencken, stick to familiar subjects such as pawn shops, programs and pennies, and stop Van Vechen-ing and Mencken-ing race. Every race has worked out its own artistic development.
You come from Baltimore. Some of the greatest voices ever heard, "Black Patt!" Abile Mitchell and others, were born and reared in Baltimore; but your descendants, Cavaliers, Living in Maryland, refused to teach black people and they had to go elsewhere. Ira Aldrich, of Baltimore, had to go to Europe to receive recognition.
Write your World articles about your own race—or better still, the American people—stop Van Vechten's filthy "Nigger Heaven," and the filthy parties in Harlem, that preceded its writing and publication, and, above all—LET MY PEOPLE GO!

Ready for Opening Tilt With Miles Memorial Next Saturday
MONTGOMERY, Alamanda, Oct. 1.—With all the 1926 letter men, except one guard, now in gridiron togs and with all except four of the entire varsity squad of 1926 working out each afternoon, the Alabama State Normal Hornets speeded up their practice this week in preparation for their opening hit with Miles Memorial College here at Paterson field on Oct. 7.
This week, which was the opening week of the school year, was marked by the return of Ex-Captain Rufus Lewis, backfield hero of 1925. George Burns, flashy halfback and star four-fetter man at Alabama State, William Cooley, elusive halfback of 1925 who had to retire in the middle of the 1925 season because of injuries, Milledge Hall, all-conference end for the team, subcenter, subcenter, Bradle Kennedy, husky lineman, and Atkins Collins, promising end and baseball letter man of the 1927 conference championship nine.
Coaches Jacobs, Lewis and Dunn are not decided as to their startling lineup for the opening contest. The famous varsity line of 1926 will probably take the field intact but the backfield choices will be uncertain and perhaps frequently changed during the progress of the game. The two effective quartets of hall tails who can be used to swear the toured Atlanta University defense of "Chief" Alken which is to be presented at Montgomery on the succeeding Friday (Oct. 14). With an entire varsity squad of seasoned Alabama State veterans which has been augmented by the coming of a round half-d dozen promising results of other climes, Hillary will be playing and plan to "swing the way right through to a conference football championship" this year.

Reginald Siki Making Good in Wrestling Matches at the Grove
Wladek Zybszko, former world wrestling champion, may discover he has bitten off more than he can mastache when he attempts to throw Reginald Siki. Somegnalse champion in 30 minutes at New Ridgwood Grove tonight (Tuesday night).
It would not be difficult to find any number of fans who, having watched Siki's two appearances—and two victories—at the Grove in the last two weeks, who would be willing to wager that Siki will turn the tables on the Pole and pin his shoulders to the mat within the 30 minutes.
Sikl has the most wonderful physique ever seen at the Grove. The Zbyszko-Sikl match will be a prelude to the main event to a finish, in which Hans Stelnke, German Oak, will face Joe Zickmund, giant Bohemian. For once, Stelnke will meet a man nearly his own weight. The Bohemian tips the beam at 230. Last Tuesday Stelnke weighed 284, but this is below his normal heft, which runs to 240. Final boot at the Grove had Tuesday Stelnke. Sikl scored a decisive victory over Stanley Stickney, of Poland, after 19 minutes and 30 seconds. Reginald won with a headlock, the fourth one in succession, Sikl was hard pressed at all times, but possessed too much class for his young opponent. Stickenky weighed in at 206 and Sikl at 202.

more, was frequently and unnecessarily interspersed with the word "Nigger," the use of which epithet contributed nothing at all to the humor, nor to the folk characterization attempted by the entertainers. The director of the station should know that the word "Nigger" is a term of derision, contempt and hatred applied to persons of the colored race, and it is not such a term as is used by person of Intelligence, or by those accustomed to exhibit tolerance in their dealings with weaker individuals or groups. Do you realize that thousands of colored people buy radio sets and tune in on your programs? While the members of the colored race are perfectly willing to enjoy a joke on themselves as well as on any other race or people, they resent the public use of the word, which usually provokes physical combat if used in private by individuals.
The term bespeaks the gutter, and is of the lowest type of slang. Many cultured white persons do not wish to have their children tune in on gutter slang, they therefore tune out your station for other stations where a higher grade of English, is used.
The Keith Albee circuit of the theatres demands that no words should be used on their stages which would offend the members of any one race or national group: Stations WEAF and WJZ give similar instructions to their artists. There certainly must be some logical reason, when such powerful organizations as the above mentioned see fit to curb the thoughtless or prejudiced expressions of artists which would offend audiences or parts of audiences.
The stars of the radio world went through a full Southern program at the recent radio banquet, and with one single exception the word "Nigger" was never used. The jokes used by these artists at the radio banquet were so clever and humorous that it was not necessary to endeavor to invoke additional laughs by resorting to wholesale insult and appeal to the low element of persons laden with racial prejudice and antipathy.
If it is the policy of your station to use epithets that offend one race or nationality, why not be consistent and use epithets that would bring offense to a number of such groups?
Why not broadcast a program in which the chief comedy making element would be the frequent use of such terms as "kyke," "sheenie," "mock" and Christ killer. In reference to our very substantial Jewish population? Why not broadcast another program referring to the doughty countrymen of Benito Mussolini as "dagos," "guineas" and "wopa." Then continue and pay your respects to the "micks," "limeys," "Hunkles," "Polacks" and "square heads," "frogs," "helnies," "Fritzies," "Huns" and "spiggoties?"
Can you imagine the storm of protest that would follow such action? Magnify many times the recent upheaval over the showing of a motion picture uncomplimentary to the Irish, and you would gain a fair idea of where agitation would begin from these powerful groups upon which your insults would be hurled. You know full well that your station, or any other station has not the courage to attempt any such program as I have indicated. Then why pick on twelve millions of dark skinned Americans merely because their political, financial and social power is less than that of any of your groups of recent European immigrants?
Among the purchasers of Columbia phonographs and records, as well as of Bromo-Seltzer, are hundreds of thousands of colored people, and it is a portion of the profits from these purchasers that go to help this new and most modern way of filling the air with insult. Is this fair? Is this good business? Does it increase the interest in your programs, and increase the good will of your business? If so, then you are justified in continuing, but if such a procedure is not justified by the spirit of fair play; business ethics, good commonsense or advertising value, then I feel that you should very quickly take steps to prevent a recurrence of the disgraceful situation that developed at your station last Sunday evening.
Your station is located in the more broadminded, more businesslike and more intellectual northeastern section of the country, and I fail to believe that customs of racial charity and amity that have prevailed since the day of Abolition and of the Civil War should not continue. to prevail rather, than that this section should propagate the spirit of the unreconstructed South. For when our own New Jersey heroes wore the Blue under the Kearny and ought shoulder to shoulder the Pennsylvanian in defense of the defender of Wheezah and "plug uglier" of Baltimore were shooting down knifing and storing New York troops while passing through the City of Churches on their way to the front. May "John Brown's Body," "Marching Through Georgia" and the immortal "Battle Hymn of the Republic" never be thrown, into disarray in favor of "Dixie" and "The Bonnie Blue Flag." Rather let us continue in that spirit of the greatest American of recent times, Theodore Roosevelt, whose motto was, "All men up, and no man down."
My great-great-grandfather fought with Jackson at New Orleans. My great-grand-father did his bit in the Mexican War, and my grandfather was a sergeant-major in the Immortal 54th Massachusetts, and his features are depicted on the Shaw Monument on the Boston Common, marching beside his martyred commander. And I, myself, bear the scars of the enemies' bullets and shrapnel received on "Flanders Fighters" and "Battle of the Bastille," whom I have in the "land of the free and the home of the brave." Yes, the home of the "brave." Brave men who hide behind microphones to hurl insults at individuals, which insults they would not dare to utter were they face to face.

A NUMBER of performers and others united in bidding a warm welcome home to Miss Florence Mills and N. S. (Snow Kid) Thompson at the Footlights Club last Saturday evening, the occasion being a banquet in honor of the little star. Earlier in the week "Bob" Slater led a delegation to the street Miss Mills and if one is to judge by demonstrations in behalf of Florence the opinion would be that she is thrice welcome.
WELL, that is as it should be. Her Triumphs in Europe gave Florence Mills the inspiration to strike white women of the opportunity to inform a number of Europeans, through their papers, that the race of which she is an unstanding member had been misrepresented in interviews, which we took pleasure in reproducing in these columns, disclosed Miss Mills as one of the most intelligent women on the American stage today.
A CABLE just in from Al. Brown, who helped to make it pleasant for Miss Alberta Hunter upon her visit to New York, mentioned that the popular little pugilist will not start for this side until November or later. Brown was advised that Taylor would from then be matched for October dates, so that the time for the bout he set back so as to give the white boy time to get into shape. Brown will most likely be given the chance which he turned down when he was ordered home for the Taylor fight.
WITH the formation of a new company known as the Famous Artists Corporation of America, organized for the purpose of producing all kinds of art, the company cont press release tells us, a new note in motion picture production has been sounded, for this new company will not only produce features and comedies with all star Negro talent, but will also use picture covers with picture covers with events of interest to colored people all over the world, a thing hitherto never attempted by producers of Negro pictures.
RECOGNIZING the real need for an organization that can furnish exhibitors of Negro pictures with features, comedies and news reels devoted exclusively to our people. Famous Artists Corporation have built an orphanage to supply this great demand regularly from time to time as has previously been the case.
RELABLE men behind a reliable organization will carry out the policy of the company to supply ex- service to those pictures annually with six figures and twenty-six news reels all devoted exclusively to colored audiences, guaranteeing at the same time that all releases will be on time.

New Models Hit at the Lafayette
Shelton Brooks Stars in Irvin Miller's Best Vehicle
The Brown Skin Models came to town last Monday, and judged by the enthusiasm of the Monday audience at the Lafayette Theatre, Irvin Miller has produced his finest revue. A company of forty-three performers and a new Jazz Band under the direction of Mildred Franklin rendered the new edition of Miller's annual classic. For sheer beauty, perfect staging and all-round enjoyment, this week's show at the Lafayette is as pleasing a revue as has come to Harlem in months.
Shelton Brooks is the star of the show. In addition to acting as master of ceremonies, the famous composer renders some songs and tells some stories. Some are new and some are old, but all set the audience hilariously happy. Brooks has never appeared to better advantage. His humor is contagious—his smile sets the audience laughing.
The Nippon Four, an aggregation of Chinese artists whose appearance at the Lafayette last year created quite a stir, are also part of the company. These men are headed for fame. They play with a wealth of feeling that is most unusual. The man who plays on the sword is an artist; the one who plays the violin while holding the instrument in all manner of difficult positions is a master of acrobatics as well as melody.
The show boasts an unusually good chorus. Some of Miller's girls have developed remarkably. During the course of the revue, half a dozen of them do "specialties" that would do credit to many a "principal." Blanche Thompson deserves special mention. She does some splendid dancing in a trio of girls and received round after round of hearty applause in a little sketch in which she took the leading comedy role. The bulk of the comedy is handled by George Crawford, Monte Hawley, Jay Goines, Jessie Hall, and the waves of laughter that swept the Lafayette at the opening performance was a real tribute to their ability.
The photoplay program for the week includes Earnest Lubitch's masterful production of "Passion." Pela Negri and Emil Jannings play the leading roles in this picture which has been hailed by critics as one of the greatest photoplays of all times.
MRS. AMY GARVEY
ORGANIZES NEW SHOW
Mrs. Amy Ashwood Garvey is organizing a new show for the theatrical season which has just commenced. Sam Manning is the author and will direct the staging of the show. It will be entitled "Black Magic." and will have an early premiere at the Lafayette Theatre.

Edith Wilson Here Next Week
Theatre
Clarence Robinson, whose rapid rise as a producer is one of the most frequently discussed topics in Lafayette Square, will present his latest show at the Lafayette next week. "It is called 'Jazzmania.' Robinson staged Jimmie Cooper's latest revue, is the organizer of the revue being presented at one of Broadway's most famous night clubs, and has developed an enviable reputation in both colored and white theatrical circles.
Edith Wilson, who returned from Europe with Florence Mills, will be the star of "Jazzmanla." There will be two bands—Duke Ellington's band will render the regular musical accompaniment to the revue from the "Pit" while the Balalakal Orchestra will present the special musical accompaniment to the famous act of Rodrigo and Lilin. John Vigal, Clarence Robinson, Slim Henderson, Lena Wilson and Buck and Bubbles will also appear in the cast of "Jazzmanla." There will be two feature pictures during the week. For the first half, Constance Talmadge will appear in "Venus of Venice." During the last half of the week, the feature picture will be "Lost at the Front," the famous war comedy featuring George Sidney.
"California" a Vivid Romance
McCoy's New Picture at Lincoln Has Mexican American War Background
McCoy's New Picture at Lincoln Has Mexican American War Background
Seldom does the motion picture-goer see upon the screen a historical romance as vivid and as colorful as "California." Tim McCoy's latest historical Western picture filmed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and now playing at the Lincoln Theatre.
The picture is based on story from the pen of Peter B. Kyne, which was written especially as a starring vehicle for McCoy. Perhaps that is the reason that the star so admirably fits the roll of Captain Gillespie, U. M. C.
Kyne chose as his historical era the period when California was being conquered by the Americans—the time when the proud old Spanish families were losing their grip on what is now one of the most famous States of the Union.
It was an era of romance and battle, an era suitable for a picture of love and action, against a background of fact. The story is a charming one and makes the blood run faster.
The star's previous military experience helps suit him to the role of the President's messenger and the hardest fighting marine in the service of his country.
Dorothy Sebastian is seen in the role of the Spanish senorita who, despite her wishes, falls in love with one of the invaders, a man who arrests her own father. She loves him and shoots him at the same time—for of such stuff are senoritas made.

Theatre-goers who have been familiar with Arthur Byron in roles of well-groomed men of metropolitan life have long been in the last Wednesday in a far different characterization—that of a patrurial cotegerman of the old South, owner of a great plantation, master of many New York confectionation of an aristocratic southern tradition of other days.
His vehicle was "Black Velvet," an interesting new play by William Roberts at the Liberty Theatre.
But if his impersonation was different, his appearance before his adultery brought to him welcome as ever, for brought to him the trilonic artistry of his many other performances through a long line of Broadway successes.
Black Velvet is fashioned against the elegance of the romantic steeped in the romantic traditions of other days, but grappling with the brisk problems of today. It revolves around the fortunes of the old Darr the writer. Byron is General Darr, its head.
In an atmosphere of lazy, colorful romance, the play is rather slow in getting under way, but tenses up the dramatic climax in the latter part.
Into the project of developing the old Darr plantation comes the romance of the genius's grandson with a northern girl, with slons with a mulatto churner, and the plot titles, too, against the clash of the white folks and the Negroes. The woman is said of the piece, it was well worth the admiration, ad. Mr. Tyron gave a sulled portrait of the old general. Nadea Hall played the mulatto girl with fine glove and real drama, and Leonard and his dusky, jealous lover, was excellent.
One of the refreshing performances of the evening was that of Kate, the pretty young daughter of Arthur, the man, the first appearance on Broadway. She granddaughter of the famous Miss Rehan and has been undergoing rigorous training in varied roles out of town to play her role. The result she showed, for she played her small comedy part with delightful polls, and adorable charm. Others in the new work: Loona Hogarth, Sylvester, Joseph Green, Charles Slattery, Louis Lalley and Jimmie Rosen.

"The Midnight Watch" at The Roosevelt Theatre
Taking as this timely theme the crime wave which is sweeping through American cities and even into the countryside, H. H. Van Loan, the author of the current Broadway stage success, "The Noose," has written a picture called "The Midnight Watch," which will be shown at the Roosevelt Theatre Saturday only.
The story is said to be a tribute to the police and a warning to crooks, similar to that famous catch phrase of the New York department addressed to crooks: "You can't win!" Eventually, Van Loan contends, all crooks are tripped and trapped.
In the cast are Roy Stewart, David Torrence, Mary McAllister, Ernest Hilliard, Marcella Arnold, John Ellott and Henry Roquemore. The director was Charles Hunt and the picture was produced by Trem Carr for Rayart release.
"WHAT PRICE GLORY"
AT THE LAFAYETTE
The picture which has been acclaimed as "the world's greatest motion picture" "What Price Glory," will be shown at the Lafayette Theatre during the week beginning October 17. This picture had a record run on Broadway and played at the Roxy Theatre for three weeks to the largest attendance that ever attended a theatre in the history of motion pictures. Bessie Smith and her Harlem Follies will be the stage attraction during the week.

Brunettes Are Really in Order
Judging by Alhambra Theatre Gathering Here This Week
The question "Do gentlemen prefer blondes?" was answered with emphasis by the audience at the New Alhambra in the decided negative. The musical comedy attraction is "Brunettes Preferred." and the applause and cheers endorsed the idea vigorously.
Rosa Henderson has joined the cast and she is an outstanding figure in the playlet "Neighbors Neighbors," in which also shone Emmett Anthony, Slim Henderson, Gertia Moore, George W. Cooper, Rita Fairechilds, George Booker and Al F. Watts.
Louise Williams, also a newcomer at the Alhambra, sang with Angle Mitchell and twenty Hula Hula girls in a Hawaiian number that caught the fancy of everybody. Tim Moore and Emmett Anthony carried to success the force, "Rosa's Wedding," in which Eva Smith is the bride whom George W. Cooper wins after absurd difficulties.
A high spot of the program was the singing by Rose Henderson of "My Old Kentucky Home." As delivered by her the old folk song takes on a tender pathos that reaches every heart.
Kitty Browne leads the twenty brunette flappers through "The Land of Creole Girls," and "Under the Moon."
"Gorgeous" gives George Booker a delightful opportunity for his excellent tenor vocalization. Billy Petway and George Green do their stepping to ringing anthem.
The promise of the new Alhambra management of delightful shows in a well-kept and orderly theatre is drawing large attend-

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded, brings back the flavor and the hair when faded, stroked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store or large store for "Sage Compound," you will get a large bottle of this famous old recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, for only 75 cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one can possibly tell you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, making one smooth layer at a time, opening the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.

"I had severe throbbing headaches, dizzy spells indigestion, tightness in my chest, shortness of breath. I had back pain. I not stay in bed with any ease. Any way I turned I was in misery. I tried different remedies till I heard of Black-Draught. I took a couple of good, big doses of Black-Draught and saw a big change. I was better—I ate better and slept better. I kept it up till I took a nap. I was the last to go back to my work, am a railroader and my work is hard.
"I have kept myself fit by taking Black-Draught, and though my 62 years old I can do my work with ease right along with younger men. I am never without Black-Draught. I give it to my nieces for colds and stomach troubles and it helps them. If he has nausea and bad taste in the mouth—an all 'round good medicine.' Costs only 1 cent a dose.

Trustees Sue For Property
Action
Having been reincorporated last August, the congregation of the Latayette Presbyterian Church, Ivy place, Jersey City, is having difficulties with the old trustees in an effort to have them turn over property in their possession. A suit has been started in chancery against five of the eight trustees to recover both the real and personal property.
The defendants in the action include John T. Brown, president of the trustees, and his colleagues on the board, I. E. Mabry, Rohand-K. Ahlmann, and James W. Haney and Heurc C. Irving. The other members of the trustees are Robert S. Hargrove, James E. Abrams and Fred Smith, but the bill sets forth that they have not been guilty of any irregularities, but have used their influence to win the will of the congregation relative to the reincorporation plans.
Among other things it is charged that the defendants have refused to account for the administration of the books of any kind have been kept by Roland B. Abrams, the treasurer, and that frequently money have been drawn from the church's account in the Trust. Company of the church had fraudulently pensions which were not authorized by the congregation. Several weeks ago members of the church Board o. Trustees threatened to take the trustees' Pay. William A. Byrd, ousted from the charge, claiming he had "outgrown his usefulness to the church." This step, launched in November, was a aftermath to an election by the congregation, at which time the majority of the old board failed to be re-elected. The new board and members of the congregation failed to move to oust Rev. Byrd.
Commencement of the present difficulty came about through efforts of the pastor and his supporters to go ahead with plans to erect a new half-million dollar church at Ocean avenue and Forrest Avenue, acquired by the church some time ago. The position said the church could not afford to undertake the financial burden at this time

Keep a Cool Head and Save Your Ductless Glands
EVERY ambitious person desires many things which he or she does not get. There is continually a conflict between desire and attainment. There is the desire for a good business and a large income. This may not materialize because earning power is not above the average.
THE KRIGWA PLAYERS' LITTLE NEGRO THEATRE
Many people desire fine clothes, expensive automobiles, elegant homes and yet they have not the wealth for these things. A normal human being desires a mate of exceptional beauty and charming personality, and yet quite often the expectation is not realized. Disappointments are everywhere and longings remain longing. This is life. The real stability is in the meeting of such vicitudes with a stamina heart and renewed courage.
To sing the "blues" will only disturb the sympathetic nervous system and cause disfunction in the ductless glands. Continued worry, excessive anger, fear, envy and resentment are nervous states which undermine the health by producing organic

THE KRIGW
I HAVE finished a little job which I set myself in 1925. It was the job of starting a Little Theatre movement in high Harlem. The movement has been auspiciously begun. I leave it with fondest benedictions to those better able than I to conduct its growth.
I believe that outside one's bread - and - butter work, one owes a special and local duty to one's neighborhood. In my six years' residence in high Harlem, I have often wondered just what I could do for the Negro world between 123th and 145th streets which others could not do better.
Finally, I tried a Little Theatre. We had often discussed it. We had held a meeting or two, but nothing came of it. I am no theatrical man, though I love the theatre. But I got Burroughs. Charles Burroughs is a great dramatic student and leader. Four times, under greatest difficulties, he had staged my pageant, "The Star of Ethiopia," using from 300 to 1,200 actors. Burroughs promised and gave unstinted aid. The movement began August 11, 1925, in the Renaissance Casino. Thence it was moved to the basement of the 135th street branch of the Public Library. The library specials had long urged a move inward. They gave us use of the basement, and put in a stage. Louise Latimer planned curtain and scenery and Aaron Douglas decorated the walls. Thus was born the Krigwa Players' Little Negro Theatre.
We worked two years. What did we do? We gathered a group of some 50 persons who expressed interest, of whom 25 or more actually helped as actors, boosters, ticket salers and what not. We produced the following plays:
"the Broken Banjo," by Richardson—Renaissance Casino, August 14, 1925.
"Compromise," by Richardson—The Church Flight, by Gaines-Shotton, "the Broken Banjo," by Richardson—Library, May 3, 10 and 17, 1926.
"Mandy," by Jefferson; "Foreign Mall," by Spence—International House, October 25, 1926.
"Pandora's Box," by Amend; "Mandy," by Jefferson; "Foreign Mall," by Spence; "Her," by Spence—Library, January 17, 19 and 24, 1927.
"Compromise," by Richardson; "Broken Banjo," by Richardson; "Blueblood," by Johnson; "Her," by Spence; "Fool's Errand," by Spence—Library, April 20, 25 and 27, 1927.
"Fool's Errand," by Spence-Little Theatre Tournament, Frolic Theatre, May 2, 7, 1927.
As a grand finale we entered the Little Theatre Tournament for the Belasco Cup. It is held annually in New York and participated in by Little Theatre groups from all over the United States and oven, last year, from England.
To our gratification, we were named the four prize winners, and we will play at the final gala night, to play us the $200 cash. With these funds we buy burries and the faithful players, I am resting from my labors and giving the task to other eager hands.
Our financial success has been

Our difficulties have been the
following:
1. Getting over our ideas to
the actors and to the public.
2. Opposing the "anteroom to
Broadway" idea.
3. Discipline.
4. Voluntary help.
Our idea of a Little Theatre was based on plays by Negroes, about Negroes, for Negro audiences in Negro districts. Now this was strong medicine for young folk trained to think that no Negroes could write good plays; that they should get away from the merely racial to the universal, and that they should show white folks what they could do. Many of our young people are still arguing this matter and are not yet convinced that Negroes are already writing excellent plays, but the highest interest and that, while white visitors are always welcome, the Negro audience must be the norm and object of a Negro theatre. It is going to take some little time for these ideas to take deep root.
The public was not properly apprised of the object of our effort and our publicity was very poor. I knew what was needed, but had neither time nor money; we needed a large number of volunteer workers to talk and tell the world; we needed advertisement and posters. I was disappointed at the small number of people who came and many who came to work were disappointed because there was no specific work laid out for them.
A third difficulty was the number of young people who came to us with the idea that we were training actors for Broadway. They were looking to a career and earning a living on the stage and wanted to begin with us. This idea was encouraged when two or three stopped from our stage to work downtown. This was legitimate and laudable, but it was not our main object. Acting is a fine career and we must all earn a living, but the object of a Little Theatre is art—not money—it is to do a beautiful, complete thing for the sake of the thing itself, and not for its utility. It was difficult for many of the young folk to see this. They were a bit impatient at art for art's sake.
Very critical was the matter of the inner discipline of the group. Plays must be chosen; parts assigned; dates set for rehearsals and renditions. This involved authority, discipline. Our group was ostensibly democratic, and yet we all knew that many matters could not be left to chance majority vote. With a police respect for age and reputation, the group was willing to put a good deal of effort into those of Mr. Burroughs; but we continually tried to refer matters to them. For the most part, the spirit and team-work were

"Brightest Side of My Trip"
World Traveler Says Letters Cheered All the Way
PARIS.
PERHAPS the most pleasant feature of my trip so far is the large number of letters. I have received from readers of the articles. So far there have been 183, some of which ask questions and some of which are complimentary. This is all the more gratifying when one recalls that the average reader, which includes myself, is apt to postpone indefinitely the writing of complimentary letters to the editor, while we rarely ever fail to register our displeasure at those articles we do not like.

excellent, but there was some open contempt for authority, bickering, jealousy and backbiting. Indeed, our tournament play was nearly ruined by this split, but the prevailing loyalty came to the rescue manfully and made the malcontents play the game. They capitulated with good grace and, although the bickering made our play less smooth and finished than it should have been, it proved a work of art, as well as proof of self-government.
Our greatest and final difficulty was lack of a large enough number of voluntary workers, able and willing to give the requisite amount of time. A dozen of us did all the work and four or five bore the brunt. I was disappointed at this. I thought that twenty or thirty interested folk came to the theatre and five bore a week to the cause. This proved not true. Perhaps we need to wait a few years for more intelligent voluntary folk who can afford the leisure.
The future is bright for the Little Theatre idea in Harlem. But the seed that has been sown needs a period of incubation. We must make up our minds to certain things. Among them are: Is Negro life dramatic and interesting? Do we have any ordinate ourselves to authority? When these things are settled we can build a real Little Theatre movement.
I feel that, personally, I have done all I can at present. I have presented an iden to the black public, not perfectly, not adequately, but with fair clearness and some success. I have asked and received an amount of unselfish cooperation which was remarkable. I cannot ask Charles Burroughs to do more without adequate compensation. He has given time, money, heart and strength. He has poured out his knowledge, keen critical ability and magnificent artistry some, even when it was received without appreciation. Well--that's life. It was a beautiful venture. We loved it even when we despaired of it.
I let it go now with regretful thanks to all who helped. I withdraw the name "Krigwa," which is my own copyrighted property, but I hand on the idea, the experience, the hope to others stronger, abler and more willing.

To the first half of this my opinion is that it would be the height of folly for the average working American to come to any part of Europe to look for work. To do so would be almost like carrying water to the sea. There is not a single European country I know of that has not an unemployment problem of some kind, not notably England. The height of ambition of no small number of Europeans is to get to America. In some countries there is a waiting list of two years at the American Consulate.
Besides, the rate of wages in every European country is lower than in America, while taxes and other expenses are disproportionately higher. I have been so far in nine European countries, and have seen not one in which the worker can live as comfortably and save as much proportionately as in America. Every European country is paying in some way for the war. For a long time to come the movement from America to Europe will be what it is now, that is, the quest for pleasure, relaxation and culture. And if the American government all three in abundance, for if the truth must be told not only is the average European more cultured than the American, but he is far more skilled in the art of savoir vivre, of knowing how to get the most out of life.
I have discovered that Negroes who come here in search of work very soon wish that they were home again. This is true to no small extent also of Negroes who come from regions other than the United States, a condition due not to color prejudice, but to the keener struggle for existence the greater commitment for the United Continental Europe the oppressed Negro from South Africa or the United States will find perfect freedom from color prejudice; he will also find, unless he has money, that it is one thing to have freedom, but another to have something with which to enjoy it. He will be reminded of the story of the rich man in the Arabian Nights, who took a hungry beggar to his sumptuous casket placed him in a magnificent table, and then served empty dishes. I have told of the hardships of Negroes in London, Marseilles and other places, and there is more to follow.
The single exception to the above has been the Negro musician, and that field is now overcrowded. With England doing so, the Negro musicians formers, Prunner and to speak strictly - Montmartre - is really

In addition to the Akely exhibit from the Congo, which has been in the possession of the department for several months, the Blondlau collection of primitive African art, which was on exhibition at the New Art Circle at the University of Chicago, will be displayed. Among the articles to be exhibited are masks, fetishes, musical instruments, ivory and wood sculptures.

the only field worth speaking of
in Europe.
My advice to those, colored or
white, who must earn their daily
bread is: Stay at home. You're
lucky and don't know it. And
let me add that this is an ad-
mission I make unwillingly.
The next most popular question is: What are the business chances? These, I have been told by persons who seem in a position to know, are good. But in an overcrowded country or countries, there is again the matter of keen competition. My advice, then, would be that if one knows the language thoroughly, is experienced in his particular line, and is willing to sink a considerable part of his capital in "getting on" to the business ways of the country, let him come if he has made up his mind. But I have been nothing that the only American firms who seem established in the large European cities are those firms with large branches at home like Woolworth.
The two European countries with the largest number of Negroes are England and France, in the former the chief business of these Negroes seems to be the sale of fake medicine and charms; in France it is music, in this latter case I am speaking of the American Negro.
I understand that the field is very good for dentists—American dentists are very highly thought of. Europeans seem to pay less attention to their teeth than Americans, and with a Good Teeth Campaign there ought to be plenty of work. Color makes no difference; indeed, it might help. I heard the rather amusing story of a Negro, a very dark one of fine physique and flashy hair, who spent money in Paris and Denouville. Most of his clients were of the fair sex, who would consult him whether their teeth were good or bad. But even in dentistry there is also the matter of the language, except in England.
The third question in frequency is: What does a trip to Europe cost? Well, there are trips and trips, of course, but I am positive it could be made to cost as low as $300. Round trips are advertised for $175 by some of the leading companies. In addition there would be $10 for a passport, $10 for a visa, leaving a balance of $105. Now one could purchase the most beautiful and its beautiful suburbs on that. A pretty good room, with hot and cold water, can be had in almost any one of the numerous hotels in the Latin quarter for fifteen francs (sixty cents) or lower, and one may eat at Boulant or Chartier, also in the Latin quarter, for forty cents a meal without wine—only two meals a day are eaten in France. In many restaurants passably good meals may be had for as low as twenty cents, or five francs, with wine. B度过 course, the person at the restaurant must know a little of the language, or be expert in the sign language, or be in contact with English-speaking persons.
The fourth question: Are the Europeans really free from color prejudice as you have been saying or is it a case of their being merely polite?
Of course, it is impossible to look into anyone's mind, but one's actions are usually a pretty fair index. If one is a skilled observer. Persons who restrain their prejudices from mere positeness lack spontaneity. One meets with such a quality of friendliness from the average Negro tourist that is difficult to believe that it is a mere impulse. Negro tourists with whom I have exchanged experiences tell me that it seems to them that those with whom they come in contact seem to be kinder to them just because they are Negroes, which is my experience precisely.
When Mr. Anthony Bagley of Sheepshead, New York, was presented to the Popa recently, I learned that he received the most notice from him, getting a special blessing. Mr. Bagley was the only black person present. Many other instances could be cited. Instead of there being color prejudice in Europe, I should rather say there was col- ence Division are the following:

or attraction. England is the only European country in which one is likely to find color prejudice, and, that I must say, is largely, perhaps, almost wholly due to the type of most Negroes found there. Britain is such a hard country for the Negro in which to find work that it is largely those of a certain type who can hold on there. In a recent article I told of some of the fine postitions held by dark Negroes in France.
Several questions were asked about Morocco and segregations. As I said, there was no other prejudice there. As to whether the Moroccanes were superstitious, I said that I thought the masses of them were, and gave instances. As to climate, Morocco is hot in the summer, but mild and agreeable in the winter months, though I am not sure whether there is plenty of rain. As to whether the Catholic religion is well established there, I am not prepared to say, though I hardly think so. The principal religion is Mohammedanism. Of the hospitals, of nursing, and as to whether United States agencies control such hospitals as are there, I regret that I am also unable to say.
One lady "double-dared" me to tell what I saw in those places in Pompeii from which ladies are burred. I see that she is trying to get both the editor of this paper and myself "in dutch."
Another writer wants to know what the French people think of the "colored boys" of the A. E. P. All with whom I have talked speak in the highest terms of Negro soldiers and say that they were polite and considerate, and never attempted to show any superiority. As will be recalled, Marshal Foch gave one Negro regiment (was it the $68th?) the honor of being the first to dip its flag in the Rhine.
Another, Emma Jane Sayers of the Pacific Coast News Bureau, sent me a charming letter and wished to know where my book "From Superman to Man" could be published. We went to New York City: $1.65 postpaid. But I must cease answering questions as I wish to reserve space to pat myself on the back by publishing one or two excerpts from the letters.
Mrs. C. H. Dublin, 336 Willard street, Bridgeport, Conn., says "I trailed you from Morocco to Spain; then to Italy. . . . I enjoyed the trip with you to Monte Carlo very much indeed. The climate and open spaces. And when you wrote 'Rocks! Rocks!' and ever so many more rocks!" I felt compelled to look up and see awing mountains and great precepts. It must be glorious to be there absolutely in person."
Mr. L. F. DeBeary, 1820 Wylie avenue, Pittsburgh: "I am writing these few lines to let you know how I admire your articles. I am a person that never cared for reading, but somehow I read your articles and the more I read them the more I want to read them. . . . Your articles are very educating to the young colored men and women. . . ."
Mrs. Hazel Thomas, 5730 Michigan avenue, Chicago, IL, says in part: "I must tell you how we are enjoying your articles each week. We travel right along with you and we see and enjoy the beautiful and interesting sights that you do. Your versatile pen tells us many details that our eye would doubtless overlook. . . . Your description of Rome equalled that given in 'Ben Hur.'" And with that I had better cease or the editor will begin to suspect that I am fishing for "in raise. My letters have come regarding my health and I will take the opportunity to say that I feel completely rehabilitated.

PHYSICAL culture may be a "fad," but its aesthetic results are conceded. The graceful control of the body is the basis of a fine manner.
It is an opinion of long standing that children should be taught to dance in order to develop grace in movement. Yet, dancing alone gives but a limited training of the muscles, compared with the all-round exercise now taken in gymnastics, classes for physical culture, and more out-of-doors walking exercises. It is recommended that all who are deficient in "grace," or who suffer an embarrassing self-consciousness because of their awkwardness of pose or movement, should take a course of training under an intelligent teacher and study the art of correct walking, until every muscle learns its proper office. With the self-command such training gives, case of manner and dignity of bearing follow naturally, to say nothing of the serenity of mind that lies back of all this pleasing exterior.
Carrige and posture have much to do with appearance. At a formal affair, in the presence of some very special people and at intervals of impulsive warning, we may do justice to ourselves as with much grace as the impulse of the moment summons for us, but as a rule most of us forget and toter or tter along with our eyes, either with other eyes, the position, or the jerky, spasmatic prince with dulled disregard for the critical eyes that follow us.
There is more walking than just putting down the feet, and walking is one of the most undisused gestures in life. A perfectly good looking dress costume can be spoiled by the wearer walking with shoulders and hips thrown back, thereby giving a permanent wave to the spine. Then too, a pretty face that the body brings forward so languid, listless, bored and without expression often loses its beauty in the passing. Note how many pedestrians on every side go phoning along hurriedly and jerkly. Their motion suggests that they are walking against time; that they are in such haste that it would require a great inducement to make them stop for a moment. They are walking in the wrong way and are getting more harm than never. Never rush along at the creelism. Never speed, unless it be a matter of life and death. Take a reasonably long stride and a slow cidence. The United States infantryman has the ideal gait for health when he is moving at route-step over a level country. Nearly all women, except those who have, through study, reduced walking to a science, take short, quick, choppy steps. Prob
Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
Look for Character in Your Sweetheart
Are you sure that you don't love him for his "cute" ways, ready wittenish, beautiful teeth, wavy hair, stylish clothes, or because he knows "how to love"? Why not test his character a bit? Sure, you want your marriage to be a happy one. Passion cools quickly and attractive features make him a resistant temptation. Cleverness and so appeal are usually accompanied by conceit and vanity.
I'm afraid that the reason so many people marry and "live scrupulously ever" is that they do not appreciate the person with good character.
It's a wonderful thing to be able to trust the one you love. It's a glorious feeling to realize that the one you love places your feelings before his own, and it's heavenly to know that your love is repreciated by an honorable person.
If your ideal hasn't showed up yet, don't be discouraged. Remember that this is a big world. Save your love for the one who is worthy of it and you will save yourself a lot of worry and understanding.

Clumay walking, besides the ill-effect of appearance, endangers the blood circulation, mI-shaped and cramps the muscles. Walking is one of the best and most inexpensive exercises one can take. It is such an easy thing to step out-of-doors and take a walk. The ideal time, for one whose occupation permits it, is before breakfast and as soon as the bath is over. Shoes that are "run-over" or too small will naturally impede a graceful carriage of the body. There are many defects over which we have little or no control, but the cost of twenty-five cents for repairing shoes and care in selecting our new ones rest entirely upon us.
Seldom do we find two people walking exactly alike, and yet, in conformity with their physique, individual build, they may be walking correctly. Soldiers walk in conformity, and learn to do it with a very few instructions, because the top sorgeant demands them to do so.
Self-consciousness has its values and if we would allow our sensitive moose the most outstanding defects that mark our personality and cost us the same price as a pack of gum or a clear, we would surprise ourselves with a pleasantness and satisfaction to be ashamed of. Remember, first impressions are received through the eye. Before a word is spoken, the pose and carriage convey a significant announcement of character and breeding.

Of thirty Vice-Presidents of the United States, eight have been born in New York State. The first was George Clinton of Ulster County, and the last was James S. Sherman of Utica. Governor's Island, in New York Harbor, was known to the Indians as Pagnack, meaning "Many Nut Trees." It was sold to Wouter Van Twiller, a Dutch settler, in 1677. The public schools of New York City now teach 1,250,000 boys and girls, the greatest number of pupils ever brought together, and one-sixth of all the school children in the country. New York State has 51 inhabitants whose lives are insured for a million dollars or more each. There are only 17 in this class in the United States. Defensive automobile headlights caused 1,548 motor vehicle accidents in New York State in 1926.
New York City alone contains one-third of the Florida oranges crop and one-fourth of that of California, a total of nearly 12 000 carloads. Many oranges are also imported from Porto Rico.

Brooklyn Royal Giants Blanked
---
After losing three straight games the Bay Parkway team turned around and beat the Brooklyn Giants, 7 to 0 in the second game of a five will, after losing the first tilt, 7 to 1, at Erasmus Field on Sunday.
Rube Zellers was on the mound for the Lippenman in the opener and seemed to suffer from the heat in the first few innings, when the colored ball tossers grabbed themselves a five-run lead. In the fourth inning he seemed to regain his stuff and pitched good ball until the seventh, when the visitors scored two more.
Bill Holland had the Lippenman at his mercy most of the time and deserved a shutout. Malay tripped with one out and scored when Zellers beat out an infield hit to Finley.
Arnold, the visitors' leftfender, had a busy time of it in this game, catching seven files and getting one assist. He also was the hitting star of the game with a homer and a single. The homer was the first to be smacked over the centerfield fence this season.
The second game produced the best keystone play seen around these parts in some time, by Willie Jurgens and Artie Riley. While their play in the first game was of high standard they reached the peak in the nightcap, handling 22 chances between them. Of these four were snappy double plays. Iko Cano was in good form, allowing the colorful players eleven hits which he kept well scattered. The work of the keystone combination pulled him out of several high places, but he always arose to the occasion by making the visitors hit to the field with men on the paths. In the first tilt the colored comedian, the Country "Circus" Brown, got one hit, but in the nightcap he stepped out and garnered four

A FIERY CROSS was burned a
few days ago in front of the home
of Robert L. Avant in Jamaica,
Long Island. His offense is that
he has bought a house on Ferndale
avenue, where Negroes have never
lived before. Mr. Avant also re-
ceived a letter the next Wednesday
which said, “White among white.
We tolerate no intermingling,” and
threatened him with death.
WHITE PEOPLE oiten try to ex-
cuse their behavior by saying that
they object only to the rabble, not
to Negroes of character, intelli-
gence and theiff. But Mr. Avant
jor eight years has had a good rec-
ord as a clerk in the General Post
Office; he has a‘wife and three
children ; as a soldier he risked his
life in France for his country; by
honest work and self-denial he
saved enough money to buy a
house. Thus he typifies the vir-
tues of intelligence, morality,
patriotism, industry and thrift.
Yet he is threatened because he
peaceably buys a house suited to
his means and lives quietly in it.
AS the threatening letter shows,
many white people are possessed
of the idea that the Negro is eager
to mingle with them, that at every
chance he will push his way
among them. But it is just the
other way; the white people are
always pushing themselves among
Negroes. The Negro stays in
Harlem, for instance, and the white
people come crowding there to as-
sociate with him; one can hardly
go to a public dance or a party in
Hariem without seeing several
white people, and the cabarets are
full of them. The logic of the
Caucasian has always been
strange, but never stranger than
when he pushes himself on the
Negro and then accuses the Negro
of trying to mingle with him.
Knew the Game
A YOUNG colored man met a
young white man on a bench in
Central Park. The Negro wanted
money to go to Paris, the white
man just wanted money. They
went into partnership in a career of
banditry. They kept business
hours; they wore “working
clothes”; on certain days they
robbed in Brooklyn, on others in
Manhattan. In two years they
robbed one hundred chain stores
in Brooklyn alone and the total
“receipts” are estimated at $20,
000. Last week they were caught,
tried and given sentences of from
forty to eighty years.
THEY KNEW all the tricks of
robbery except one—they didn't
know when to quit.
Democracy in Gary
GARY, Indiana, became famous
some years ago because of its
school system, which was design-
ed to produce better children: by
giving free play to the child’s in-
dividuality, There was much talk
of introducing that system in the
schools of New York; it became a
campaign issuc. Now we are see=
ing some of the results of the fam-
ous Gary system—intolerance, in-
discipline and race hate.
WHAT KIND of school system is
it that allows fifteen hundred chil-
dren, supposed to have been taught
Americanism, to flout the authori-
ties, go on a strike, all because of
the presence of two dozen Negro
pupils? Searchers for the cause
of the prevalence of vice and crime.
among the youth af America may
find an answer in Gary. American
hemes and American schools are
letting the chiidren run things and
not daring to stand out against
them.
THE PEOPLE of Gary are large-
Iv fezcigners, many of whom fled
from oppression and hard times in
Eurepe. Their experience in Eu-
rope asd the opportunities of
America have tauglit them noth
ing, except to practice the very
oppression from which they fled.
In Europe ninety-nine per cent of
them would have had no chance to
attend any kind of school; in
America they refuse to attend be-
cause one pupil in sixty is a Negre.
Instead of imbibing the best spirit
of America they have chosen the
worst,
THE AUTHORITIES are more to
blame than the students. The po:
lice allowed the fifteen hundred
students to hold mass meetings;
the same police broke up three
Negro mass meetings. The police
organized machine gun squads to
patrol the Negro sections of the
city. Instead of taking a firm
stand the city council backed down
like weak parents and voted $15,=
000 for a separate school for the
handful of Negro students, al-
though he superintendent of
schools reminded them that it was
illegal to transfer the Negro stu-
dents.
YET Negro parents are com:
pelled to pay high taxes to main-
tain the public schools, which
their children are to be denied-the
right cf attending. Negroes are
to have all the burdens of citizen-
ship without the privileges. Is it
any wonder that people laugh
when they hear the word democ-
racy?
The Target
(From The Nation.)
The Negro fs the target not only of criminal
Policemen. Recently an elderly physician was
murdered in his motor car in the woods near
Hammonton, New Jersey. His wife declared
that two partly disguised Negroes had stopped
the car, attempted to assault her, and, when her
husband came to her aid, killed him. At once
State police end posses searched the country.
Had two Negroes been caught near the scene
they would have been lucky to have escaped with
Mere “third-degree” torture. It now appears prob-
able that the wife was carrying on an intrigue
with another man, and the police have aban-
doned the search for those Negroes. Every
Negro knows thet there is no commoner de-
vice of while criminals than to blacken their
faces or for persons guilty of a crime to declare
that “two Negro brutes" committed it. In August
Manly Justice, white, shot and fatally wounded
Exrl Williams, at Durham, N.C, Until he died
Williams niaintained that a Negro bad shot him
and na mob at once instituted a “man-hunt."
Aiter Williams died Justice confessed to the
murder, Luckily no Negro had been caught and
killed meanwhile. On March 15, 1923, Maurice
Mays, colored, was legally exectited in Knox-
ville for the murder of a Mrs. Lindsey, a white
woman, I August, 1927, a white woman con
feseed In Norton, Va, that she, "dressed in
men's clothes and with her face blackened,”
had Killed Mrs. Lindsey, Despite her confession
she was released, Had tot a dead “nigger” al-
ready atoned for her crime?

themselves harnesned to conerete

According to this critic, the

great heat in the white Baptist

of thelr denominational — polity
which allows all but unlimited

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Sir:
Please allow me space in tho columus ot The
Amsterdam News to congratulate you and the
entire staff on progressive newspaper methods
which you employed fn exposing the hypocrisy
and the un-American attitude of Mayor Walker
in his effort to inject and raise a rnce issue
during his recent visit to Rome. The actions of
Mayor Walker in this regard were unbecoming
the head of a great and progressive city ‘ike
New York, and The Amsterdam News deserves
considerablo praise for bringing this matter to
the attention of the nation. It was real, pro-
gressive journalism, and speaks well for the
Vigilance and intelligenre of The Amstordam
News in giving to the people first and last the
news. ‘
Such actions abroad on the part of Mayor
Walker will do a great deal to give the wrong
impression of the Negro, both in America and
abroad, and the Negroes of this city. us well as
America, are entitled to a public statement from
Mayor Walker on this inatter. It can hardly
seem possible that a distinguished American,
renred nnd edueated in a cliy Mke New York,
which is liberal and coemopolitan in its views,
could take such an attitude towards a social
question which Mnyor Walker took in his visit
to Rome. Such actions will do a great deal to
hamper and inconvenience Negroos from Amer-
fea to traveling abroad, and will have uw tend
ency to rotard interracial betterment,
The «Amsterdam News was the first of the
great race journnis to carry this nows, and it
was & newspaper bent worthy of any great
American newspaper, The strange actlon ot
Mayor Walker tn tubing his Roman holitay can
hardly he accounted for, and he has done tye

T° MAKE sure that the
above caption is not in-
tended as an_ opprobrious
epithet, 1 will quote the
definition of heresy, accord-
ing to the Standard Dic-
tionary: “Heresy—a doc-
trinal view or belief at _va-
riance with the recognized
standards or tenets of any
religious, philosphical, po-
litical or other system,
school or party: an opinion
or doctrine subversive of
setiled beliefs and accepted
principles.”
According to this deiini-
tion, Bishop Gaines’ ser-
/mon before the Bishops’
Council is as rank heresy
as ever emanated from the
mind of a prelate.

‘This Modernist. preachment. in

Church would grievo the great
inass of membership to the point
of distraction. ‘Tho stmple-anina-
ed. unsophisticated souls who
have fed on glad tidings of the
Gospel would rise up in revolt
at what they would constrno as
Wasphemy. “I know that Bishop
Gaines has too fond judgment to
Tepeat that sermon in any pulpit
under his Episcopal jurisdiction.
I have frequently talked with
intelligent young ‘ministers with
the modern theological point at
view. ‘They have frequently con-
sulted my judgment for whatever

this invariable advice: “If you
want to be serviceable fo the con-
stituency which you will be call-

practical advice of the pracmatic

fends.”
‘The A. M. E. Chureh is on: trial
defore the world as examplo of
the Negro's ability for safo and
sane selfilirection. The unso-
Phisticated fathers and founders
who built upon the simple cvan-
gelical foundation justified the
experiment’in their day and gen-
eration. We are anxious for
clearer indication than we now
have to show that the generation
{n power will display like compe-
tency. Like the loyal sons ot
Noah, we are compelled to hide
our faces and walk backward cut
of shame for much alleged nak-
edness. No Negro who loves his
race and who would revere the
A.M. . Zion Church can read in
the Gctoher Forum the expose of
alleged Satanalia of corruption
in Chicaxo, and then think that
a Negro Bishop {s a high priest

head in shame and making his
best attempt to blush. Further

And now Bishop Galnes, whom
