Charles, 250 West 128th street, of being a bigamist, has been served with papers in connection with an action for absolute divorce. Through his attorney, John B. Thorne, 101 West 135th street, he denies each and every allegation made by his alleged first wife in his answer. During an interview Friday evening Mrs. Charles showed The American News representative a picture of Dr. Ebimber, which she had just received from her home in Santo Domingo, and a promissory note which she asserts was left with her mother by the man she now claims as her husband. The photo, although bearing the features of a slightly younger man, has a remarkable likeness to the picture of Dr. Ebimber which was printed in The Amsterdam News last week. Mrs. Charles further asserts that Dr. Ebimber is the father of her son, Antonio, two years old. The promissory note, she claims, which is made out for the sum of $900.14, represents the sum in which the family home was mortgaged to defray court costs and counsel fees on the occasion when her alleged husband was arrested in Santo Domingo for practising medicine without a license. "The house," she states, "will be sold during the early part of this coming April, unless I can get up enough money to pay off the mortgage. Up to the present I have only been able to pay the interest." According to Atty. Lennie L. George, Mrs. Charles' Attorney, Dr. Ebimber, who is a medical student at Columbia University, was transferred to that institution from William II University in Germany, and that he was given a two weeks' leave from classes by the local school following his marriage to WOMAN ARR ON CHAP SLEW SW Arrested When She Went to His Condition — Admi He Stru Police could not find the k 230 West 140th street, is said to Harris, 25, a waiter, 129 West her sweetheart, Saturday night Miss Myles was arraigned in F WOMAN ARRAIGNED ON CHARGE SHE SLEW SWEETHEART Arrested When She Went to Harlem Hospital to Find Out His Condition — Admits Stabbing Him When He Struck.

Man Indicted in Shooting of Officer Alleged to Have Cut Police man With Razor-While Companion Fled James Jones, 84, 21 East 134th street, who was shot twice in left arm after he is alleged to have slashed Policeman William Franz of the East 128th street station on the head and back with a razor while his alleged companion shot the policeman in the right arm, was indicted by the Grand Jury on a charge of assault in the first degree. As a result of the indictment, Magistrate Goodman in Harlem Court Monday dismissed the charge of felonious assault pending against Jones, who was then taken to General Sessions for pleading to the indictment. Franz, on post on Fifth avenue about three weeks ago, came upon Jones and another man arguing with a taxicab chauffeur at 129th street. At Franz's approach Jones and his alleged companion jumped from the cab. One drew a revolver and fired three shots at Franz. One of the bullets struck the policeman in the arm. As the taxicab driver sped off and Franz struggled to draw his own revolver, Jones, police charge, slashed the policeman on the back of his head and then inflicted many wounds in his back, slashing his uniform. Jones fled. Franz staggered after him and fired three times. The bullets shattered Jones' elbow, but he stumbled on pursued by passersby, who caught Jones and held him until the arrival of other policemen. Franz and Jones were both taken to Harlem Hospital, where they were treated by Dr. Gee. Franz was transferred to Reconstruction Hospital, where he remained until a few days ago. The police are still seeking the man who shot Franz. Skipper of Sixteenth Precinct Back on Duty After checking a rib and lying abed in Harlem Hospital for nearly two weeks Police Captain John J. Noble, the skipper of the Sixteenth precinct, is now able to not only sit up and take notice but to saunter ever so slowly but happily up and down Seventh avenue in the sunshine of brand new spring weather. On March 6 about 0 a.m, the skipper stubbed his toe against an upturned piece of lionelum at the station house and all of his fifty-three years and over 200 pounds landed heavily on the back of a chair and one of his left ribs gave way. Dr. Allen was called from Harlem Hospital and he advised confinement therein. The Captain told a reporter that he would like to enjoy the warm spring weather with his overcoat off but that he dissent remove it for fear of catching cold in his sick rib. However, the skipper is back on duty. WARNER AND HARVEY DENIED ERROR WRIT The second motion for a writ of error by Richard E. Warner and Jesse Harvey, Federal prohibition agents, now in the Atlanta Penitentiary serving a thirteen months' sentence for conspiracy and accepting bribes, filed in the United States Court of Appeals, has also been denied. The death of Mrs. Hattle Johnson, 45, 30 East 131st street, which followed a "numbers" raid on her home by Detectives Dahlin, Pruschen and others of Inspector Ryan's staff, automatically dismissed against her a charge of felonious assault in Harlem Court Friday by Detective Pruschen, who was struck over the head with an iron pipe. Mrs. Johnson is said to have died of chronic tuberculosis last Tuesday on Welfare Island. On Feb. 17 the detectives entered her home without alarm their badges or stating their identity, it is reported. They were resisted by Edward and Matthew Johnsall, husband and son of Mrs. Johnson, respectively, who were overpowered and placed under arrest. The officers then broke open an inner door and were attacked by Mrs. Johnson, who is said not to have understood that the men were police officers. Detective Pruschen received a deep gash on the head with an iron pipe wielded by Mrs. Johnson, who in turn was slammed violently against the wall and struck in the mouth, witnesses declare, and her mouth bled profusely. The rooms were searched and several old alleged policy slips were found in a drawer among some tools. "One Wife? Maybe; But Two? Oh, No!" Brooklyn Man Pleads Not Guilty to Bigamy Charge "Married to two women? No sire," protested Robert Street, 37, 926 Dumont avenue, Brooklyn, when he was asked on Friday, March 23, by County Judge George W. Martin whether he was guilty of the charge of bigamy on which he was arraigned by Assistant District Attorney Mrs. Johnson, her husband and her son were arraigned in Harlem Court on charges of possessing policy alips, and felonious assault against Mrs. Johnson and disorderly conduct against her husband and son. The woman's condition afterward necessitated her removal to Bellvue Hospital from Jefferson Market prison. She was then transferred to Metropolitan Hospital on Welfare Island, where she died. One Attorney Andrew Sachs is said to have appeared in behalf of the defendants. The case of father and son was heard in Harlem Court yesterday. Cited in Contempt for Utterances on Prejudices of Court A tense little drama which took place last Wednesday afternoon in Part I of the Seventh District Municipal Court, during the trial of Attorney Charles A. Lynch, b135 Seventh avenue, for judicial contempt, came to an end after a session of two hours when Justice Lewis A. Abrams, acting in the dual role of complainant and presiding justice, fined the defendant in the sum of $25 or twenty-five days in jail. Previous to imposing the fine Judge Abrams stated: "I am not using the process of this Court or the authority vested in me to destroy anybody, and every litigant that comes before me, regardless of race, creed or color, has to know that I am actuated only by one motive and that is to do the thing that conscience dictates regardless of who is pleased or displeased." The trial was formally opened when Judge Abrams recited the statements made by Attorney Lynch concerning him, and for which he was cited in contempt. After he had concluded, Mr. Lynch was asked by the Court to prove his assertions. This Attorney Lynch failed to do. Attorney Richard E. Carver, 8376 Seventh avenue, who appeared as counsel for Attorney Lynch, made a plea for mercy in behalf of the defendant. A similar plea was made to Judge Abrams, 290 Worth, 135th street, after which Judge Abrams imposed a fine of $255 or twenty-five days in prison. WILBUR COHEN, BANTAMWEIGHT, MAY NOT LIVE "Married to two women? No, sire," protested Robert Street, 37, 926 Dumont avenue, Brooklyn, when he was asked on Friday, March 23, by County Judge George W. Martin, whether he was guilty of the charge of bigamy on which he was arranged by Assistant District Attorney John J. Kane. "Woll," said Judge Martin to Street, "you are surely a big man, Brother Street, but there have not been any champions yet that could boast success in handling more than one woman at a time, and that goes for Maharajhs of indope, past, present and future." The assistant district attorney stated that there were two marriage certificates in existence to grove that Street married two women, both of whom are living and claim that he was their husband. Street stated that this might be the case, but one of the women must have been married to somebody else. Judge Martin decided that the case needed more time and continued Street's ball. On Oct. 26, 1918, Street married his first wife, Miss Elma Middleton, 210 Hopkinson avenue, charges that on Feb. 13 of this year the same Mr. Street married her also. Moving Van Driver Held in Boy's Death Charged with homicide in connection with the death of eighty-year-old Joseph Bramer, 180 West 143rd street, who died in Harlem Hospital at 7.15 Monday night, Henry Robinson, 18, truck driver, 49 East 128th street, was placed under arrest by Patrolman Coyle of the West 135th street station and arranged in Homicide Court yesterday morning.

He took the child to Harlem Hospital, where he died the same evening. Patrolman Smith Of Tenth Precinct Freed Booked on a charge of felonious assault Patrolman Peier Smith white, of the West 135th street station, was discharged in Heights Court last Wednesday when the complainant, Bernard Feldberg, white, 3844 Bronxwood avenue, manager of a Sobol gas station at 133d street and St. Nicholas avenue, told Magistrate Flood that Patrolman Smith did not really try to shoot off his mustache as he had charged. Two witnesses corroborated Patrolman Smith's testimony that his revolver was discharged when it fell from its holster, the bullet narrowly missing Feldberg. The altercation between the two men arose over some intention to the policemen's automobile, it is reported. Attempted to Repulse Patrolmen With Stones, They Assert A bullet wound in his back confines Engene Johnson, 28, 2327 Seventh avenue, near 186th street, to a cot in the prison ward of Bellevue Hospital, where he is under arrest on a charge of felonious assault and burglary. Johnson was shot by Patrolman Daniel Mandel of the West 135th street station, Sunday night, when he is said to have dailed three patrolmen by throwing stones and missiles at them in the yard of 2441 Eighth avenue, after he had been commanded to surrender. Mrs. Beatrice Holly, a third-floor tenant at the Eighth avenue address, said she heard a noise at her window and when she went to investigate she saw Johnson trying to break in. She sent two small boys after the police. Leutenant Brady of the West 135th street station dispatched Patrolman Redding of the same station. Redding remained downstairs while Branch and Mandel went up to Mrs. Holly's apartment. She told the patrolmen that Johnson was in her kitchen, but when they entered they found him trying to gain entrance at the kitchen window from the fire escape. Johnson ran and the two patrolmen pursued him down the fire escape. Upon reaching the ground Johnson is said to have hurried large stones up at the policemen. At this moment Patrolman Redding appeared on the fence of the adjoining yard, but Johnson picked up a heavy club and knocked him off, the police said. Patrolman Mandel then fired two shots in the air and cried for Johnson to halt. As they reached the ground Johnson is said to have hurled a large stone at the two policemen. Patrolman Redding came back into the yard and Johnson was about to strike him with the club when Patrolman Mandel fired at him, the bullet striking him in the back. He fell to the ground unconscious and was removed to Harlem Hospital and later transferred to Bellevue.

The following night Phillips was captured in the Becker home by the builder's three sons, who were awakened by their mother's cries. In his home the police allege that they found trinkets taken from the Malzman home. Additional indictments charging burglary are expected against the young man.

Checks Tralled Around Harlem Section by Detectives Moore and Webber and Reporter for The Amsterdam News —"Earned" $5,000 in Past Twelve Months Details of how a mail thief operates can now be published since the arrest Thursday night of McKinley Long, 32, 2484. Seventh avenue, ex-convict and mailbox robber, who was arraigned on a short affidavit Friday morning on a charge of forgery before Magistrate Goodman in Heights Court, where he was held without bail for a further hearing Monday. Long has served three years in Federal prison, two years in State prison and just recently left the Westchester county jail, where he sojourned for one year, all on charges of robbing the mailboxes in apartment house hallways, the police say. TWO Long was arrested by Detectives Moore and Wobber of the West 125th street station on complaint of Frank Detrose, restaurateur, 2369 Seventh avenue, who told the police that he had cashed two Metropolitan Life insurance checks for Long, both of which had bounced back to him because a bank stop had been out on them after their loss in the mala was reported. One Frank Prince, address unknown, and another man also cashed two similar checks for Long only to have them come back on them. The four checks on which Long is said to have forged false signatures amounted to a total of $1,000. According to Detective Boyden of the West 135th street station, Long confessed to him that he specialized in the theft of these insurance checks and that within the past year he had "earned" $5,000 by this method. "I know the envelopes in which these checks are delivered by sight, and they will not fit into the mail boxes, because of their length." Long is reported to have said, "and I don't touch any other kind of mail." Other complainants against Long will be Post Office Inspector Smith and officials of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, the Chase National Bank here, and the New York State National Bank of Albany. The forged checks for which Long is being held were made out to one Fred Smith, Oscar Braithwaite and two checks made out to George A. Penton, all of Harlem. Long was first pointed out to the detectives by DeRose and he was trailed for two blocks and arrested near his home at 145th street and Seventh avenue. Was on the morning of March 10 with a reporter of The Amsterdam News, in company with a detective, had the unusual opportunity of seizing Long operate. The Thief's Trail Long was apprehended at about 9 a.m. at 141st street and Eighth avenue, where he enriched the block around Edgecombe avenue to 142nd street to Eighth avenue, then south. It was not at all difficult to distinguish Long at a distance as he wore a light brown hat, tan shoes, blue suit, gray-blue overcoat of plessing pattern, and his bright colored tie and white silk muffler gave him every appearance of an honest gentleman. And, too, he is a rather nice looking chap. Long turned the corner and went into the first apartment house at 263 West 137th street and the reporter ducked in a few moments behind him as though, to go upstairs, Long came right out again, frustrated, and walked to Seventh avenue, then south to 129th street, then toward Lenox avenue. He entered another hallway at 126 West 129th street, but a tenant passed him and again spoiled his plans. Or Lenox avenue near 125th street the postman was delivering mail and the reporter felt the trail blazing hot. Immediately the postman left the vestibule at 351 Lenox avenue, Long ducked in and just as he lifted his hand to rife the boxes a man came into the vestibule and again frustrated his plans. Although Long made no sound with his lips the reporter read his features and could feel the violent vibrations of his silent curses. The next half hour was spent by Long in window shopping along 125th street between Lenox and Eighth avenues. Long saw and recognized the detective and ducked into Kresge's five and ten-cent store and for a few moments he baffled his pursuers. The trail was rosumed at Seventh avenue and 125th street, to 126th street, to Lenox avenue, where Long turned north on his long, long trail. At about 131st street Long went into a hallway at 408 Lonox avenue; he took a letter from a mailbox, felt it, held it up to the light, registered disappointment and put it back in the box. Long then crossed over to the west side of the avenue after he passed Harlem Hospital and entered a speakaway at 139th street, but stayed only a few minutes. He sauntered on up the avenue and turned west on 141th street to Seventh avenue, where he entered a photo and then entered another where he went across the street to his home at 2484 Seventh avenue. The moment he entord there the detective stopped and frisked him but found nothing on him. He spoke pleasantly to the detective, the same one who had arrested him on a previous occasion. Long was allowed to go his way, saying that he was going straight. He has gone straight--to jail. Long's case was called again Monday morning before Magistrate Mon Quado, but was deferred until tomorrow. Fruto Saneh, 38, 251 East Ninety-eighth street, was held in 3000 for a further hearing when arraigned Monday before Magistrate Goodman in Harlem Court on a charge of possessing policy alpa.

S.)—According to police reports, Edward Walker, 40, a coal miner employed at Montour Mine No. 10 of the Pittsburgh Coal Company, was fatally shot Friday when a gun he was cleaning went off.

Gold Coast King To Avenge Death Daughter Slain for Opposing Garvey Faction in Miami, Florida MIAML, Fla., March 26—King Knesis of the Gold Coast of Africa notified Dade County authorities last Tuesday, through his attorneys, that he intended to visit Miami as soon as possible to investigate the death of his daughter, "Princess" Laura Kofey, who was killed here two weeks ago while addressing a gathering opposed to the plans of Marcus Garvey, who was recently deported from the United States. The Grand Jury for the last two days has been investigating the killing and has not yet made a report. The police are holding Claude Green on a first degree murder charge, and James B. Nemo, a Jamaican, on an access charge, in connection with the woman's death. The two men, with Maxwell Cook, said to have been sent here to train Miami citizens for military duty in Liberia, were reported to be agents of Garvey, who is now in Jamaica. Cook, however, lost his life on the night that the Princess was killed when members of her faction suspected that he was participating in the alleged conspiracy. Princess Laura, falling to heed the warning sent to her by members of the Garvey faction not to speak, was shot to death in a church here as she opened the Bible to read from thirteen chapter of leash. She was said to have been a leader in the Universal African Church Association, an organization opposed to the collection of funds here by Garvey for the purpose of fitting out ships to take the Negroes back to their "homeland."

NEW YORK & NEW JERSEY FURNITURE HOUSE George Heinlein ~ Proprietor 319-321 West 125th St. Cash or Liberal Credit BETWEEN EIGHTH AND ST. NICHOLAS AVENUE. Harry P. Tarver, formerly of 604 St. Nicholas avenue, well known by Harlem lawyers as a process server, pleaded guilty last Monday in Part I of Special Sessions, where he was arraigned on charges of forgery, defrauding, and misrepresentation. He was remanded to the Tombs to await sentence during the week of March 26. Tarver, who disappeared mysteriously three months ago from his haunts among the law offices at 200 West 135th street, was arrested recently on the complaint of Mrs. Sanquenitl, 409 Edgecombe avenue, who claims that, under the guise of being a detective from the Theodore Protective Bureau, 200 West 135th street, the defendant defrauded her of various sums of money for conducting an investigation. Becoming dissatisfied with the service, Mrs. Sanquenfti decided to visit Mr. Theodore, head of the bureau, and subsequently found out that Tarver had no connection with the detective agency. He was later captured by the police after a hot chase along St. Nicholas avenue, during which five shots were fired. Investigation by probation officers revealed the fact that Tarver procured scores of clients around Harlem from whom he collected a monthly fee for so-called protection. He is also charged with having forged the name of Attorney Madison, 200 West 135th street, to a check for $25 which he passed on Rubin Nachamklin, white, proprietor of a hot dog stand at 2298 Saventry avenue. When arraigned in court, Tarver gave his age as 29, his occupation as a preacher, and stated emphatically that he has been doing intercity missionary work for nineteen years. Union Mass Meeting A mass meeting and anniversary celebration of the Community Pro- gressive Painters and Colored Women's Union, with offices at 20 West 137th street, will be held tomorrow night at Calvary M.

Watson, 34, killed after a collision between his motorcycle and an automobile on the Lincoln Highway near New Brunswick, when a jury in Supreme Court before Judge Henry E. Ackerson, Jr., found against him, but an award of $880 was made to Samuel Gray, 481 Avenue C, Bayonne, who rode on the motorcycle with Watson. The accident occurred July 11, 1925. Watson, who piloted the motorcycle, was so badly injured that death resulted the following day, and his brother, suing as the administrator of his estate, asked for $20,000 for his death. The jury found him negligent and returned its verdict against him. But with Gray, who sued for $25,000, the jury awarded him $80 against Joseph Burns of 265 Montgomery street, Perth Amboy. Mrs. Irons Granted Temporary Alimony Action for Absolute Divorce From 'Husband Still Pending Mrs. Caroline Irons, 235 West 144th street, who recently filed suit in the Supreme Court against her husband, Claude, for an absolute divorce, was awarded $15 weekly alimony and $250 for counsel fees when the motion was given a preliminary hearing before Mr. Justice Ford in Part I of the Supreme Court on Monday, March 19. Herbert B. Boulin of the Boulin Detective Agency testified that, during a raid which he had conducted on the apartment of Mrs. Belle Potter, 221 West 141st street, on the night of January 11, he found the defendant in a compromising position with Mrs. Potter, who was named in the suit as corespondent. Irons was dismissed in General Sessions Court a few weeks ago on a charge of burglary, which was brought against him by Ebonezer Campbell, 314 West 142d street, one of the raid witnesses, who claimed that on the night following the raid Irons came to his home with a gang of men and maliciously wrecked all of his furniture. "Thou shall not steal" is the commandment most frequently upheld by the judges of Special Sessions Court, according to a survey made by Chief Clerk Hackenberger. Out of every ten cases of misdemeanor tried by that court, at least five are for petit larceny and misappropriation. Violation of the anti-policy laws is next in order, followed by cases of possessing firearms, cruelty to children and destruction of property. Of eight suspended sentences given out to delinquents on Friday morning, five were received by persons accused of petit arceny. They were: David Dodge, 26, 23 Mar tenea street, Brooklyn; Benjamin P. Graham, 29, 267 West 140th street; David Elmer, 462 Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn; Sarah Lewis, 154 West Thirty-first street, and Mamie Price, 20, who said she had no home. Charles Bond, 456 East Tenth street, and Annie Snaggs, 114 West 143d street, accused of possessing fiorarms, also were placed on probation. James P. Mallon, 18, 521 East Sixth street, also received a suspended sentence. He was charged with causing injury to property. Adam and Eve Argument Results in Slaying LEXINGTON, Ky., March 26.—As the result of an argument over whether Adam and Eve were colored or white, Pete Golden, 60 years old, was shot and instantly killed by Joe Jones, 65, at Danville, 40 miles south of here. Golden, who was formerly a resident of Danville, but who resided at Somerset, had come to attend the funeral of a relative and had engaged in an argument with Jones in regard to a reference made in the funeral sermon about the nationality of Adam and Eve. Jones is now in jail at Danville, with a charge of murder against him. Thinking Blues This time Bessie thinks out loud—and, boy, what she thinks is nobody's business. We don't mean maybe.

Mr. Charriez's letter was in response to a letter written by the President on March 15 to Governor Horace M.

Sentenced to Penitentiary For misuse of a lodge insignia, Walter Le Mont, 43, 53 Ela avenue, Mount Nunnert, N.

He was arrested on January 18 on the complaint of Lester Conn, white, who told the court that on the above date and at the corner of Thirteenth street and Madison avenue, he saw the defendant with an insignia displayed on the lapel of his coat, which signified affiliation with the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons. Le Mont explained his possession of the insignia by saying that he had found it. He had previously served a prison sentence in Mount Nunnert.

Subject Debated by White Team From Columbia University and Harlemites Subject Debated by White Team From Columbia University and Harlemites Both Sides Receive Applause - Tabloids Scored and Defended - Affair Held in Mother Zion Church for Benefit of B. S. C. P. "RESOLVED: That the Press Exerts a Corrupting Influence on American Life." This was the subject of an interesting debate between a Columbia University team, the affirmative, and a team from Alpha-Omega-Kappa, the negative, at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, 137th street near Seventh avenue, Friday night. The debate was sponsored by The Youth Movement for the benefit of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. The attendance was fair and highly representative. It was the first time a white debating team from Columbia University had met a Negro team in public debate. Dr. Oma H. Price, chairman of the debate, announced that no decision would be rendered. Harcourt H. Tynes and James Egert Allen were timekeepers. Both the negative and the affirmative were roundly applauded. It will be the privilege of those present to weigh the merits of the needless extreme and this is dangerous, he contended. Mr. Smith of Alpha, the affirmative, replied that the tabuloids hold a distinctive place in American life and constitute only one-tenth of the American press. "I will not gather isolated cases, but will defend the press on its merits. I will point out the fact that newspapers exist independently of subsidy or even an endowment; they are a private business and, therefore, must live. You may charge that the press is commercialized, but why shouldn't it be? Colleges and churches are also commercialized. "The press is a public utility, an organ of service. It gives something to the public and has a right to get something back; it is a business organization. In 1841 Horace Creeley founded the New York Tribune with $1,000; but today the press has been accelerated by competition and the pressure of social and economic influence to such an extent that it requires at least a million dollars to successfully establish a daily paper. "When the press goes beyond public propriety, said Mr. Smith, the readers will be quick to register their disapproval. Editors, therefore, are careful of what they say, for they know that this distinctive relationship exists between them and the readers.

The Columbia team was composed of Afwald Vischl, William Matthew and Byral Levy. The fraternity team was composed of A. Macsoe Smith, George W. Goodman and F. Eugene Corble, representing Alpha, Omega and Kappa, respectively, the three outstanding Greek letter fraternities of Negro colleges. Mr. Vischl of the affirmative opened the debate by stating that his team was present to formally represent Columbia, where the three of them are laboring for their A.B. Tabloid newspapers capitalize and emphasize the sensational element and appeal to the emotions and not to the intellect, the speaker said, and, therefore, exert a corrupting influence on American life. He mentioned the Evening Graphic and Dally Mirror as concrete illustrations, adding that it is the policy of the editors of these papers to embellish sensationalism with pictures, so as to make the public a witness to the incidents. By comparison with the New York Times, the tabloids play up crime in a greater ratio, the speaker said, and they do not present a fair picture of what is going on. Perfection is not asked for, said Mr. Vischi, and a certain amount of sensationalism is expected, but the tabloids carry their policy to a CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING STATIONS SEVENTH AVENUE, 2544—CHARLEQ WILLIAMS.

"The affirmative has accused the press of being on a par almost with criminals. It is well known, however, that newspaper editors are gentlemen, who are on a very high plane in the community which they serve. The press of necessity must make money . . . . and has to support itself without sympathy and on a sound business basis." Mr. Matthew of the affirmative made what he considered the more serious charge that the press is a slave to politics and is absolutely controlled by partisanship. He drew attention to the Presidential campaign of 1920, at which time James Cox, Democratic Presidential candidate from Ohio, running against Warren G. Harding, Republican from the same State, charged the Republican party with buying the Presideney for $15,000,000, and that two prominent metropolitan dailies, the World and the Tribunals, Republican and Democrat, respectively, each ran a different account of Mr. Cox's speech, thus confusing the reading public. "Politics contaminates the news by coloring it with opinion. Columbia University feels that misrepresentation and falsifying of the news influences and contaminates the public mind, and so exerts a corrupting influence on American life. We are not averse to the expression of editorial opinion, but we do object to coloring of the facts in the news. Voters must have knowledge of the political situation and the press is the medium through which they get it, and deliberately falsifying and misrepresentation makes the press a menace at such vital times." Mr. Matthew further emphasized his point by referring to what he called the false and misrepresenting press reports of the great steel strike of 1920, at which time, he said, the press reported the situation only from the capitalist's viewpoint. "The press has done remarkable good for the general public, and this far outweighs any of its so-called corruption," said Mr. Goodman of Omega, the negative, and gave as examples the exposure by the St. Louis Star of the "diploma mills"; the exposure by the New York Evening Post of the bad condition of the New Jersey State Institute, which was followed by a great improvement at that institution; the exposure and publication of the truth by the New York World concerning peonage in the South and of the Alken Lynching. Mr. Goodman also mentioned what he considered the tremendous good done by the press for the Mississippi flood relief, and that it was also instrumental in having passed the new "fence" law. The New Newark G. O. P. Wants Recognition Said to Favor George F. Bates Over Dr. Alexander for Delegate Negro Republicans of Essex County, New Jersey, will have none of the Republican organization unless they are allowed to pick their own representatives. This notice was served on the organization leaders Thursday afternoon by John T. Cheshire at a public meeting for Senator Larson, one of the candidates for governor. Some of the voters desire George F. Bates as their representative for candidate for delegate-at-large to the Republican National Convention. It was asserted, but white Republicans have selected Dr. W. G. Alexander instead. Speakers attacked Mr. Duffield because of his alleged vote against soating Negro delegates to the Republican National Convention in 1920. It was also pointed out that Mr. Duffield, head of the Prudential Life, wolud not even consider hiring colored waitresses in the company's restaurant. Among the speakers were: the Rev. C. C. Weathers of New Brunswick, the Rev. E. E. Hicks, Fred R. Clark, Edward Handy, Thomas Riley of Entontown and the Rev. W. W. Fleming. Others present were: Dr. T. H. Wright, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Pitner, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Nevins, Mr. and Mrs. Luke Dancy, Mrs. Fred R. Clark, Elwood Clark, Lewis Biggers, all of Newark; H. Cozart of Atlantic City; John W.

SARAH M&INTYRE Mrs. McIntyre, who was sick for three months, died Sunday. She is survived by a husband, Benjamin McIntyre. York Times' successful war against the Tweed Ring political clique in 1871 was also mentioned. In 1928 the Christian Century, he said, caused to be issued a report of the relative amount of space given to various kinds of news in Chicago newspapers, with this result: (1) Miscellaneous, (2) Public Affairs, (3) Foreign News, (4) Crime, the latter being given more space only in exceptional and outstanding cases. An outline of the news in the daily press indicates that it is the greatest educational source in America, in art, music, literature, economics, politics—all for two cents, said the speaker. Mr. Levy declared that the affirmative did not base its case upon tabloids only. He admitted that the press does some good, which, however, in no way lessens its evil. It is absurd to give the public what it wants, the speaker said, just because it wants it. "The press has a responsibility to the public, for only through it can they know what I going on. How can they know what is going on when the facts are misrepresented? Because people are corrupt is no excuse for its continuation; never mind who is to blame." Mr. Corbie of Kappa, the negative, wanted to know by what criterion the affirmative would judge the press. He said that college papers are filled with filthy jokes which the daily press reprints. Even the college histories are tainted, the speaker said, adding: "It is astonishing to see how much consumate bunk is used to mould the mind of the average college boy." Regardless of press reports of a political campaign the percentage of votes will be the same, Mr. Corbble said. "If the news is colored it is because the reporter has written it from his own viewpoint and editors have to depend upon it. It is well to have Republican and Democratic papers so as to have both sides of the issues represented; partisanship is constructive and makes for better journalism. "Newspapers do not manufacture their crime news, but get it from the police records and the courts and the emphasis placed upon crime by the press is not so very large. It is true that some papers will pervert the news, but that is not true of the press in general. The press has constantly fought capital on the side of labor. "One can hear more vulgarity riding in the subway than they can ever read in the tabloids. The press is not only the slave to politics, but so is every man who is ambitious. "If tabloids are corrupt then college newspapers and magazines are worse than anything that tabloids can represent." In rebuttal Mr. Matthews of the affirmative said that the subject of the debate was not to consider the percentage of the press's goodness or badness, but to determine if it is corrupt, and that the negative must prove that it is not corrupt. Mr. Corbie of the negative replied that it was ridiculous to try to prove perfection where no perfection exists. "We say that what they (the press) print is not corruption, but facts coming through the media of the press." All statements made in a newspaper may not be facts and may always be open, to question, he said. Mr. Corbie admitted the sensational element in the tabloids, but pointed out that the vast majority of newspapers operate for the good of the public and that this good must be balanced. Williamsbridge Citizens Mourn Royal's Demise Assembled in the auditorium of the Trinity Baptist Church, Williamambridge, on last Sunday, friends of the late Ernest R. Royal paid damage to his memory at his funeral services. The choir loft, heavily draped in black, bespoke the sorrow in the hearts of those whom Mr. Royal served for many years in the capacity of chorister. Softly and reverently Mr. Cooiey played several favorite hymns of the deceased, just before the funeral procession reached the church. The procession was led by the pastor, the Rev. B. T. Harvey, who preached the funeral sermon. The palletbearers consisted of his fellow Williamsbridge mail carriers in uniform. Ernest R. Royal was born in New York City 37 years ago and was reared in the little town of Williamsbridge. As a boy he was considered honest and was admired for his good fellowship. His interest in church work was unusual for a boy. He was converted and baptized at the age of 15 years and interested himself in the Sunday School and choir. He leaves to mourn his loss a devoted wife, three children, a father, four sisters, one brother, other relatives and a great number of friends. He was a World War veteran.

N. S.,)—Apparently in a determined effort to bring double pressure to bear to dethrone Robert R. (Bob) Church as a political leader in this State, strenuous efforts are being made to link him with the failure of the Fratoral Solvent Savings Bank. Despite the fact that three months have passed since the closing of the institution's doors on Dec. 18, 1927, criminal action has been started against but three persons, although many are alleged to have directly and indirectly responsible for the collapse of the bank. State bank examiners claim that the tangled affairs of the bank were the worst they have known in the state. Irregularities involving over half a million dollars were found. The nickels, dimes and pennies of Memphis school children to the amount of approximately $24,000 was lost in the crash. A. F. Ward, president; L. W. Williams, assistant cashier; Dr. J. E. Walker, vice-president, were arrested, indicted and probably will face trial for their alleged complicity in the manipulations of funds causing the wreck of the bank. The big operators, the politicians against whom bank examiners claim to have found a mass of document- ary evidence, still remain to be called to make an accounting for their activities and dealings with the defunct bank. In the mass of documents nothing is more revealing than the 1925 cash book of the old Solvent Bank, where, on page 470, dated Feb. 18, 1925, the record shows that Hayes gave his note to the bank for $14,479.02 and Church gave his note for $4,039 the same date, totalling $18,518.02. Man, 61, Not Guilty of Little Girl's Charge John Gillum, 61, 38 West Nineteenth street, Bayonne, was acquitted of a serious charge preferred against him by 13-year-old Bayonne girl when a jury in Quarter Sessions before Judge Robert V. Kinkead returned a verdict of not guilty late last week. The complainant was a white girl. There were two indictments against him, but his counsel, Albert M. Brodsky, secured from the court a direction of a verdict of not guilty on one charge preferred by another little girl. Gillum's son, Joseph, was also accused but his case was postponed. He was accused of having invited the little girls into his home at 78 East Twenty-first street, where he was supposed to have lived last September. Gillum produced evidence to show that at the time he did not live there, but was in Staten Island. THREE "Lily Whites" Still Fighting for Control "Lily Whites" Still Fighting for Control Ally Themselves With Renegade Democrats in WASHINGTON, D. C., March 26. A fight to the finish between "illy whites" and Negro Republicans was indicated by Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, upon his return here from Jackson, Miss., last Monday. Mr. Howard believes that a coalition of renegade Democrats and "illy-white" Republicans are making a concerted effort to eliminate the Negro Republican from party councils. This movement, as he views it, is not confined to the States of Georgia and Mississippi, but comprises the whole South. It is being aided and abetted, he thinks, by a class of northern Republicans who believe that the Negro should remain a follower in the ranks of the Republican party. The question of supporting candidates for the Republican nomination is inconsequential at this time, Mr. Howard has decided. He believes that suburban resistance should be made to the efforts of the "illy whites" to eliminate the Negro from the councils of the Republican party. CITY NEWS BRIEFS FOUR ASKS CASH AS FALSE COP.

Center Tap Resistor To minimize the hum in electrified receiving sets, many manufactures incorporate center tap A. C. filament resistors. The value of these resistors ranges from 2 to 60 ohms, depending upon the number of tubes and the current supply. Efficiency of these center tap resistors depends upon how closely the tap approaches a true electrical center for grid return connections. To this end, a Newark manufacturer has developed a wire-wound center tap A. C. resistor that is wound from each end inward, with the two matched windings connected at the mid-point. Resistors of this type, as pictured above, are now available to set constructors for application to any circuit calling for 10, 25 and 60 ohm sizes. The Proper Sequence Always turn off the eliminator before the set is turned off and turn the set on before the eliminator switch is thrown. A relay when used does this inherently.

E. Church recently. This resolution came as the result of a short speech of objection made by Mrs. Bessye Bearden, who is actively engaged in welfare work, and to whom had come the report that "a committee or group had objected to so many 'fair' colored people being on the various programs" planned by Dr. Charles A. Butler, the president. The Rev. Richard M. Bolden, who spoke on "A World's Vision," stressed the need of good will among all groups of people. Dr. Charles A. Petition, president of the West Indian Committee of America, said "West Indians should first get rid of their own prejudice." Dr. Robert W. Bagnall, director of branches of the N. A. A. C. P., spoke on "Citizenship as It Effects Americans and West Indians." He stressed the need of West Indians becoming citizens. His discourse showed that West Indians, due to their lack of knowledge of the American wage scale, are willing to and do work for lower wages when they first reach the States. He advised West Indians to campaign against this. "It doesn't matter where a man comes from, but the direction in last Thursday morning.

And yet the Sunday papers carried a quarter-column story on Wade Hamlin, white, who lives in Hemp hill, Welch, W. V., and who believes a woman has cast "a spell" on him. According to Hamlin's story, a woman bewitched him when she gave him cake. "The spell ruined my luck," he said. "Everything I undertook went wrong. I lost every job I got. I got in jail, couldn't sleep, couldn't eat. I had fits. I can't explain things—they just happen to me like that since I ate that piece of cake that conjured me." At present Hamlin is being held for breaking into Mort Bell's home. All in all, it looks like Hamlin, the K.K.K. and some of our Southern brothers don't care what they put on or take from Negroes—even down to their superstitions. 137th St.Y.W.C.A.Presents "The Carnival of Spring" Spring was never more in evidence than during the presentation of "The Carnival of Spring." which was given Friday afternoon and evening at the Y.

"We admit that it does require good management and the part of experienced housekeepers. The very first thing to do is to choose frequently those dishes which do not require to be served the moment they come from the range. The casserole is a good example of such dishes. We have reused casseroles which also served casseroles, from soup to dessert, making a complete oven meal. Many casserole dishes may be prepared in the morning and kept in the refrigerator until time to put in the oven. A casserole of chicken and mushrooms with a delicious meal may be prepared early, and with the mushroom cut out, a way the there will not be such a rush at the last moment. Casserole Plays A Double Role Casseroles save dishwashing, as they play the double role of a baking and serving dish. They are made of different oven-proof materials. Heavy aluminum is good, as it may be used either on top of the stove or in the oven. Cocottes are individual dishes of brown earthenware and do not come with holders. Oven-proof china comes in many different types, both decorated and plain.

Cooking meat in this way is a form of baising. The meat is seared and browned on top of the store before putting it in the casserole. Vegetables may be added to the meat with spices and a nicely seasoned sauce. The cheaper cuts of meat have excellent flavor, and care should be taken not to lose this flavor.

Beginning next Monday, April 2, besides the musical comedy revue and the motion pictures, the Alhambra will include a dramatic play in each week's offerings. The Alhambra prices of admission will not be raised. A company has been organized in which some of the most eminent stars and headliners are the chief figures. This troupe is called "The Alhambra Players" and the first production to be presented will be the intense drama "The Panther" by Nerman Houston. Evelyn Preer Engaged. The leading lady will be the famous Evelyn Preer, who has often been called one of the most versatile woman of the race. Her gifts of talent and beauty have graced many and varied theatrical offerings—all the way from her tragic role in David Bowie's production of "Lulu Belle" to a soubrettish loading part in "Rang Tang." drawn by a human spider into the silver strands of his web. It is a tense narration, culminating in the retribution that comes to the man without a conscience. A large company participates, including all those who have been named. Beginning Monday the Alhambra Theatre open at 1 p.m. and run continuously until 9 p.m. The entire program consisting of drama, musical comedy revue and motion pictures will be presented three times a day. Also at the extra midnight show Wednesday the complete program will be given, so that everyone, no matter what his hours of employ- She has played to the highest acclaim every conceivable kind of character. Of all who have essayed the role of "Salome" in Wilde's classic drama, Eleanor Preor is especially distinguished. To the celebrated Dance of the Seven Veils she faint all her gorgeous charms and infinity grace. Her name will go down in history as a brilliant star of the century. Edward Thompson Leading Man. Truly a "matinee girls' idol" is Edward Thompson, engaged as leading man of the Alhambra Players. Handsome and with the bearing of man of all ranks, he has played an enormous range of parts, often in Miss Preer's dress. He wears evening dress with such grace as to suggest he was born in ballroom; and with equal naturalness wears overalls when the part demands them. The Star of "Meek Mose." That the Alhambra Players will be practically an all-star group isborne out by the securing of Charles Fly Moore, who played the title character in "Meek Mose" which ran all the Princess Theatre downtown season. Mr. Moore is an actor of rast experience who has earned high praise in the dramatic profession. J. Lawrence Criner. Too. No man has been hissed and hated more than J. Lawrence Criner—and at the same time admired for his aparb portait of the "heavy" or "villain" parts. He gained his fame with the Earl Bishop players and also with Robert Levy's Lafayette company, and has always been an ardent advocate of the best in race dramatic productions. Well Beloved Susie Sutton. She has also appeared with credit in several Broadway plays, and has had her own company with which she toured the country carrying her fame nation-wide. Her important engagement for the Alhambra theater is that of Alice Gorgas, who was seen as the daughter in "Meek Mose." Miss Gorgas plays the character for sixteen-year-old girl or an elderly woman with equal effectiveness, in other words, in the phraseology if the stage she combines "lungee" "character woman" portrayals, she is generally conceded to "character woman" of the "The Panther" Monday. The first play to be presented, beginning Monday, will be "The Boy by Norman Pinson. It is called the drama of various ages. Three women of various ages are WANTED IMMEDIATELY!

Beginning Monday the Alhambra Theatre will open at 1 p. m. and run continuously until 11 p. m. The enclosed stage of drama musical comedy revue and motion pictures will be presented three times a day. Also at the extra midnight show Wednesday the complete program will be given, so that everyone, no matter what their mental may be, will have equal opportunity to see this unusual performance. "Circus Day" the Revue at The Alhambra Theatre A large, good-natured man sat in a box and wiped tears of laughter from his eyes constantly. Others of the audience at the Alhambra had their handkerchiefs out ready for action. "Circus Day," in the opinion of this reviewer, is one of the best music and comedy revues yet presented by the big theatre. It starts off in a unique manner. Ashes and Jellybean, in other words, Sandy Burns and Marian, are seen at the rise of the curtain playing a poker game in pantomime which is awfully funny. They are circus hands, and are chased from the game to the "lot." There the "big top" is seen. There is a "ballyhoo" and a comedy display of freaks—then the arena and exciting actual circus is seen, and good good good. Beautifully kept and remarkably trained animals go through their tricks to great applause. A high spot of the show is the "dopa fiend" act of George Wilshire, known as Harlem's Lon Chaney. Inez Dennis joins in the "Happiness Savings, a gilmpe of wonderful life." Amanda Randolph and Sam Cross do a clever turn with the sixteen girls. Sandy Burna and Charlie Smith each take in a cabaret with "somebody else's wife"—and it turns out that each has the wife of the other. Wanda Jimmie Jackson, Al F. Worth and others add merriment. "Crisis Day" will be a great show at Wednesday's midnight show. The front of the Alhambra is gay with banners on account of the circus. "The Midnight Express" is an exciting photoplay feature with plenty of stars—Phyllis Haver, Elaine Hammersmith and William Haines. As stated elsewhere, a dramatic troupe known as the Alhambra Players has been organized with Evelyn Preer as leading woman, Edward Thompson as leading man, and including such notables as J. Lawrence Criner, Charles H. Moore, Susie Sutton and Alice Gorgas. The Alhambra Players begin Monday in the intense drama "The Plough. This will be an extra added attraction besides the revue and photoplay program." Next week's revue will be "Smiling Inn," which will have Sandy Burns, Mantan, and a full cast of other favorites and on abundance of novelties. The photoplay feature starting Monday will be "The Tomboy," in which Dorothy Devore gained fame. They'll Show "Why Wives Go Wrong" Next Week The Ida Anderson Players, scoring their biggest success this week in "Kick In," at the New Lincoln Theatre, will offer "Why Wives Go Wrong" next week. The country has been watching what is being done at the Lincoln and Mrs. Anderson being requested every other day to accept offers out of town to present the sketches which have met with success at Mrs. Downs' theatre. The same thrills will mark the sketch for next week, albeit the offering will be entirely different from this week's. While revues are all along the same order, the dramatic sketches at least have the virtue of being different, every one of them. Laugh-thrills will also be the order, who day at the Lincoln Theatre are the mostatable comedy team of Wallace Bee and Raymond Hatton appear in their latest Paramount fun film, "Firemen, Save My Child." This picture has been acclimatized the greatest and funniest of the Feery-lation comedies, but it has the added novelty of being one of the most prolific productions in which the spectator is carried on a journey of heart-stopping thrills, while being convulsed with laughter. In the production's big scenes, which are said to have been produced on a more lavish scale than the its predecessors—"Ibishol the Frontier" and "The Navy Now"—some of the most daring photos over photographed by a camera were taken. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, ARCH 28, 1928 To Star at the Alhambra Theatre M. B. H. MISS EVELYN PREER and EDDIE THOMPSON Will Lead Another Batch of Former Lafayette Players at the Alhambra Theatre in Dramatic Sketches, Commencing Next Monday. Many Popular Performers Who Appeared With the Original Robert Levy Outfit Will Be Seen in the New Form of Wholesome Entertainment at This Harlem House. Mrs. Downs. Has Set the Pace Mrs. Downs. Has Set the Pace AUDIENCES at the New Lincoln Theatre are getting the best break in Harlem. The ground on which we stand in making this statement is so secure it is only fools that would attempt to question it. Again showing a courage which few men managers in the game dare show unless somebody steps forward to set the pace. Mrs. Downs is offering the people of this community a three-in-one nightly presentation that leaves the others hanging on the ropes. Let us admit that the revue has a hold on our people which it will take all the mules and traction engines in kingdom come to pry loose, then give a glance at the Lincoln. Mrs. Downs not only continues her fine line of pictures and the same revues we have been in the habit of witnessing around here almost too long, but look ye, she also offers through the Ida Anderson Players some punchy dramatic sketches that set them by the ears every afternoon and evening at the New Lincoln Theatre. Without prejudice it is fair to assume that if one can enjoy the usual pictures and revues, why cannot one enjoy even more something out of the ordinary thrown in "la nape?" Inadvertently we informed readers last week that Mrs. Anderson and her able assistants were appearing in "Kick In" when we should have said in a gypsy playlet. It is this week they are putting on "Kick In" and how! The sketch is being offered in four rapid fire acts. One of those "police plays," it took the Monday afternoon and Monday night audiences by storm, with Lawrence Chenault proving a versatility only a real actor could hope to show. Lawrence Criner, Tom Mosely, Monte Hawley, Inez Clough, Hilda Offley, Billy Andrews, Mrs. Annerson constitute the little hand which forces us to rise and remark that insofar as we are personally concerned they were great. They deserved that rousing round of cheers which they received at the conclusion of their work, and if we had it to do they would be anchored at the Lincoln as long as they can induce audiences to continue to respond as they have been doing. As quiet as it is kept, there isn't a theatrical manager in the country catering to Negroes falling to watch what the Lincoln is doing. They all know that we have been right in insisting upon a little change from the stereotype dish of—well, let us look at one of "those things" last week. The comedian comes out, crawls into a bed. The dancing lady follows. He sleeps, wakes up, finds that a number of would-be cut-throats have edged in and one of them is beside him. Ha-ha-ha-ha—. The yokels laugh. The hoofers rush on. Then the same old chorus stuff. Then the dancing lady, burdened down with a smile and little else, while doing a wicked hootchie-hootchie. The audience, so much weared with the same stuff, failed to rise to the occasion and hardly a hand. It is indeed to laugh. Now we have the Alhambra following the policy of the Lincoln. Nothing new in that. Whether it has been revue, vaudeville or drama they have all followed the Lincoln's policy. Mrs. Downs is a courageous little lady and will at least try to meet us half way. More power to her and may the offerings which she has secured for her audiences continue to please the people as we have seen them pleased. Three Chorus Girls By ANDY RAZAF The type who never will advance; Who will not study nor improve. She says they won't give her a chance. The gin mill or the breakfast dance. If not, the parlor social stomp. Takes every moment of her time; To her, life is one reckless romp. Lucinda's been a chorus girl For over ten years now, it's said. Her health is gone, she's gettin' old And now she fears the years ahead. SECOND GIRL NOW Jane, another chorus girl, Is of the type you're proud to find; She wants to be a star some day And does her work with this in mind. She believes in keeping up to date, So in her spare time often goes To see and hear the latest things Downtown in all the Broadway shows. She's thinking of the future now, And theo' her pocketbook is loan She's saved enough to go to school And polish up her dance routine. She knows her beauty and her youth Will only last and serve her host As long as she protects her health With proper habits, sleep and rest. They say Jano got a break at last; I'm not surprised, I knew she would. Up to the top she's rising fst! She couldn't help from making good. They are forever crackin' wise To some poor unsuspecting dame! They seem to think we're all the same! "The first day that I joined the show Boss says to me: 'Kid, don't you know "I'm gonna make a star of you And bring you fame before I'm Of course, you know, it all depends; That is, we've gotta be good friends. "From that day on he played me strong And kept on jibin' me along; Took me to dinner once or twice Until he found I was 'too nice." "Right there he starts in gettin' rough; Ho growls. 'Say, can that "decent" stuff? You should he glad to be my pal, You're just a common chorus gall' "I got my notice yesterday; It's quite a blow—well, anywy, I'm glad I showed one rotten boss All chorus girls don't 'come across'!" Fletcher Henderson to Play Return Date' at Lafayette Those who remember the appearance of Fletcher Henderson's famous Roseland Orchestra at the Lafayette Theatre some months ago will be glad to learn that this incomparable group of musicians be seen at the Lafayette again on one of the Spring Festival Programs—beginning April 16, immediately after their last appearance at the Lafayette, Henderson took his band on a concert tour. They returned recently to continue their engagement at the Roseland Dance Hall on Broadway. Negotiations for the appearance of the band at the Lafayette have just been completed. BESSIE SMITH HERE SOON. Bessie Smith is hard at work rehearsing the new revue which will open at the Lafayette on April 9. Jack Goe, Miss Smith's manager, announces that this new revue will be performed by the cast, and they have ever attempted. There will be a cast of fifty entertainers—some of them well known on the vaudeville and musical comedy stage—and a jazz band which has been commissioned in Chicago.

Negotiations are now under way between the noted colored entertainer, who has been the rage of Paris for several seasons, and Lew Leslie, the producer, calling for the singer's appearance in "Blackbirds of 1923," the colored revue which Leslie will shortly place in rehearsal. Miss Baker left Harlem several years ago, young and unknown. She scored a terrific hit in Paris and at one time was reported married to a nobleman. She sails for New York shortly and if the contract Leslie has signed, she will start rehearsals upon her arrival. "Blackbirds of 1928" is the amplified version of the revue Leslie is now presenting at his after-theatre resort on West 57th street. LEARN TO DANCE ANDERSON'S STUDIO 564 LENOX AVE.

Dougherty Henderson and Mason Head Revue at the Lincoln For weeks we have been planning to say a few words "touchin' on and appertainin'" to our old friend "Slim" Henderson, who with John Mason and Rosa Henderson are heading the revue at the New Lincoln Theatre. "Slim" has done as well and better than many appearing in the剧院 catering to our people, and from what we have observed of him it is our opinion that he is one of the most modest entertainers we have been brought into contact with. Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, speaking of the houses in our city of words, are acquainted with "Slim" and are recently friends noticed, without trying to hide their pleasure, that the combination of Henderson and Mason returned to make 'em laugh as of old. These few lines will come as a surprise to "Slim" as we have been somewhat delinquent in telling the world about him during the run of the drama, but we have been so busy looking after another end of the entertainment side of Harlem, we failed to impress upon our obey the necessity of reminding the folks that the revue end of the Lincoln presentation is as good as any in the community and better than many we have seen on Seventh avenue. Modestly has the elongated comedian "carried on" during the years we have known him.

They Say That Rinty Knows It's Only Make Believe Despite the fact that Pat Hartigan is badly handled by Rin-Tin-Tin in the canine star's latest picture, "A Race for Life," Hartigan and Rinty are the best of friends when they are not before the camera. In "A Race for Life," a Warner Bros. production, Hartigan, as the tramp, is attacked and hurled from a moving freight car by Rin-Tin-Tin. The scene was taken several times before Director Ross Lederman got the effect he wanted, and Hartigan decided that Rin-Tin-Tin was anything but friendly. A few moments later, when the scene had been completed, Rin-Tin-Tin, wagging his tail, was again making up with Hartigan. "A Race for Life" is based on a story by Charles R. Condon. Rin-Tin-Tin in "A Race for Life" comes to the Douglas Theatre Sunday and Monday for a run of three days.

Best Sport Pages in Greater New York Renaissance and Celtics to Clash in Harlem the Coming Sunday Night White Champions to Meet Holders of World's Colored Title in Thrilling Contest at the Renaissance (Bv FRANCIS.) In a very fast and interesting game, Harry Davis and his Bronx Professionals went down to defeat at the hands of the crack Renaissance Five on Sunday night at the Renaissance Casino by the score of 51 to 28. The first ten minutes of the contest led the fans into the belief that they were going to see an airtight game, for during that time the play was so fast, and the guarding so perfect, that both teams were finding it difficult to score points and wore doudlocked at eight points each, but by hard and consistent offensive work the Renaissance forged ahead in the remaining minutes of the half, which ended 21 to 14 in their favor. The second half found the Renaissance hitting on all five, and though the visitors did not appear to let down any in their game, the usual irresistible Renaissance attack could not be stopped, and the colored champions gathered 15 field goals while the visitors were getting 6 by very hard work. The big spurt made by the Rens made the game appear to have been one-sided, but it was a baffle to the way. The chief features of the contest were the shooting of "Tappy" Rickens and the long shots of Harelid Mayors in the second half of the prowess of Goofy and the ability of the vistors. G. Davis and Slocum met in head on collision and the former had to be patched up by a doctor fan and Trainer Jameson, but gambly collided with the vistors. Mayors both suffered leg injuries, not enough to prevent them from finishing the game. Next Sunday night the game that the fans have been long waiting for will be played by the Champion Original Celtics line up against the Colored Champions. The Celtics, by their defeat on the Fort Wayne Club recently, are the present American League champions, and their series with the Renaissance should take on the atmosphere of a world's championship. We are sure that the Celtics will play off to the majority of the games to be played. The Rens defended the Celtics in the only game played so far this year, and with that in mind it is on opinion that the psychological effect will play an important part in the game on Sunday. The Renaissance must not fall to realize what victory will mean to them, and should be in their best condition, both physically and mentally. They will be playing on their home court, before a home crowd to cheer them on, with a victory to their credit this year, all of which should be an asset to them on Sunday. as the doors will be opened at 7 p.m. we advise the fans to go to the casino at an early hour if they want to see this game. In the preliminary game last Sunday night, the Buffaloes staged a game uphill the Buffaloes played, and appeared quite taller and heavier, the Buffs, and won out by the score of 44 to 36. At half time the score was 15 to 16 against the Buffaloes. Next Sunday night the Buffaloes will play the Y. M. D. of the West 135th street "Y" and a first class game is sure to be the result.

Pursuing that policy, especially in view of the misunderstanding that has risen as regards the action of the Hilldale Club withdrawing from the Eastern Colored League. I feel compelled, in fairness to the club, the public, whose interest is the compelling force in all our acts, and to myself, to state just the reason that preceptified this act. I recognize the league, and am heartily in favor of organized baseball. I also inaugurated a system of rotating umplies. Selfish commissioners with a shiater motive objected and succeeded in making the league accept the old home umplie system. Lack of co-operation, which is essential to any organization, is tearing the vitals from the Eastern Colored League. Some clubs refuse to play out their schedule. One club becomes dissatisfied because it cannot have everything its own way and jumps out of the league when it sees fit and jumps back into the league when it feels like it. The working of the league cannot be equalized so long as some clubs have parks and some have none. Some clubs come to your park and during the season take away thousands of dollars, yet they never have a park to give you anything in return. In independent baseball we booked the best attractions obtainable, and the club grew and grew until we were big, financially and otherwise. The league was organized. The past three years we borrowed money to open our seasons. Last season we closed with a loss of $18,500, and the aftermath has cost us $3,000 more. The directors of our corporation took the matter up and decided that until the league can undergo a change whereby it will function properly for an equalized benefit to all the clubs, it was better for Hilldale to withdraw, so I tendered the resignation of the club. After being re-elected chairman at our annual meeting in Detroit last year, I suggested Mr. Nutter for president. Mr. Nutter is a thoroughly capable man. I have the greatest admiration for him, and know he is sincere in his efforts to build organized basball; but it would take a lifecruces to perform the task, especially if handicapped by lack of parks and cooperation.

Hampton possessed at all times a comfortable lead until the eighth inning, when Finch, Hampton's pitcher, weakened and allowed the Y. M. C. A. to tie the score. Byrd, Hampton's captain, home run to bring in the winning score. The game ended 10-9 in favor of the big Blue and White aggregation.

Edited by Romeo L. Dougherty PAOLINO TO BOX GODFREY AGAIN PAOLINO TO BOX GODFREY AGAIN Provided the Plans of Humbert Fugazy Go Through Paulino Uzudan and George Godfrey is a headline heavyweight attraction at Ebbsfield Field in the early part of May! That was Humbert J. Fugazy's parting announcement one day last week when he boarded a historic Century for Chicago, where he invited the Mayor, Mullen the Windy City promoter, on outdoor plans. The Paulino-Godfrey match came out of a conference between Paulino's managers and the president of the Metropolitan Coliseum when the latter agreed to release the masque from an attack on him. $450 was much on Paulino's end of his bout with Tom Heinegen. Paulino was more than happy over the amicable settlement and the opportunity to meet Godfrey in a second battle, a bout which, in the opinion of many boxing judges, will be the most important of Gene Tunney's title. Both he and Pugazy parted the best of friends after their long legal battle. "I'm certain," Pugazy said, "that the Paulino-Godrey bout will be one of the biggest of the season. There will be a lot of excitement on the verdict in their clash on the Const that I'm sure it must have been a very close scrap and also one that will warrant a return engagement. I also know that Godfrey is just as anxious to get and maintain Paulino through several long-distance conversations I've had with Jim Dougherty, his manager. "As I look at it, the bout is a 'natural.' And it has been made even more so by the willingness of both Paulino and Godrey to meet him. Paulino was shot in mind for the winner and I announce my plans just as soon as I get back from Chicago and have met Dougherty." Paulino was represented at the conference by Samuel Gottlieb<sup>b</sup>, of Bushel & Gofflein, and Reggie was represented by Morris A Edelman, of Edelman & Edelstein. Howard Bisons Defeat Lincoln Lions 2d Times WASHINGTON, D. C.—Lincoln University quintet met its second defeat this season at the hands of the Howard University Basketers Saturday evening, March 17, 1928, with a score of 42-21. Before a crowd of about 1,500 both teams opened the game with a dash of speed that brought to the minds of those present that a real battle was in progress. Lincoln was first to draw blood when Sydnor, the lukewarm side court shot that was oblived by two more shots by this star. Coates. Howard's captain, responded by caging a long shot that was followed by two quick baskets by Carpenter, tying the scores. Assisted by Woods, Hinton and Jones, Carpenter and Coates began scoring almost at will, taking a commanding lead of 23-14 at half time. In the second half Coach Burr used Cobbs, Williams, Johnson, Carpenter and Coates of his reserve force, who continued his war started by their teammates, making in points while holding Lincoln to one floor basket and five fouls.

Although Lloyd Hahn of the Bose totraction in the international games, Edwards was the star of the meet, while Hahn won the mile run with case. Edwards carried off first honors with a double victory. Edwards shattered two Canadian marks of long standing when he covered the 600 yards in 1 minute 13 seconds, surpassing the record of 1:20 1.5, made in 1911, and a mark of 1:13.1, made by Burke, of Boston in 1896. In the 440 special Edwards defeated 35 and 50-yard scratchmen to win in 50 4-5 seconds. Hahn beat two scratchmen in the mile, negotiating the distance in 4:26 4-5.

Once more with flowers and hymns of praise we enter in holy places; once more we hush every rebellious thought in our hearts and soothe every grief with the words of Him who still says to us, "I am the Resurrection and the Life." Of all the festivals of the Christian year, Easter is the most important and the most joyful. From of old, it has been known as "the happiest of days," "the Sunday of joy," "the festival of spring gladness." The observance of the Holy Week, beginning with Palm Sunday and ending with Easter Sunday, is an old custom. It is, however, observed with less fervor now than years ago. Not that we are preaching Christian influences, as "the world grows weaker and weer"; not that the plenty of the church of today is declining, but we are more enlightened and less fearful than at an earlier period. And we are living in a material age; an age of force business competition; a time when we struggle more to amass money; a time when the contrast between rich and poor is more sharply drawn than of old, when the besetting sin of the day is to bring matters to the test of human reason, rather than to go in faith to the mercy seat and accept what God gives us there. There is no such universal appeal about the keeping of Easter, as about the keeping of Christmas, but it has been growing and spreading in its observance for many years. It is kept quite as much in certain ways by the great protestant churches, who used to ignore it, as by the Roman Catholics and the Episcopalians. Many people feel that there is a certain element of personality and picturesqueness about Christmas which is more or less lacking in our keeping of Easter; and the personality is that of a little baby—the Christ Child—which lays instant hold on the heart of human- One dislikes the element of fashionable frivolity which has come to mark some people's keeping of the Easter feast. But apart from that, as the city shops and streets break forth into fragrant and beautiful bloom, one realizes the close kinship between heavenly and spiritual things, between things material and earthly. The week of holiness begins with Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN Woman's Past Is a woman's past ever her own? Or is she duty bound to bare her life to the man to whom she is engaged? That is one of the most puzzling of questions that can confront a woman. It is a question whose answer depends largely on the dispositions of those concerned. Personally, I believe that a woman should not tell unless she is expressly asked by her sweetheart whether or not she is keeping anything from him. What he doesn't know, he won't have to throw up at her. We all remember the letter of a few weeks past in which the little wife is continually having her past laid before her by a husband who gloats over the fact that he got the goods on her. "But," the woman is apt to ask, suppose he hears from someone else; will he forgive me, or will he say that I should have told him before." All the men that I've spoken with concerning this agreed that, if their wives had been true to them and some busybody came with some tale, they'd go back with their goose faster than they came. One young man said that he wouldn't want to hear anything about his sweatheart's past life. If she started to tell him, he'd shut her up. Then, too, there is a certain type of woman who feels that she simply must tell everything or die. Things that she doesn't tell prey upon her mind and she cannot rest until she tells all. But, ordinarily, I would advise a woman to bury as much of her past as she can, for, by telling, she is giving the man the upper hand in the beginning—that is, if she doesn't lose him altogether. Dear Egypt Ann: There has been a question on my mind that has caused me to think a bit. Should a girl tell the fellow she is to marry of her past life. In my case there was a little scandal at the time, but it is not believed by the majority of people. I am admitted to the best of society. I have many friends and I belong to several well-known clubs. I was just 15 when the terrible tragedy happened. I am from a very good family and they stood by me all through the ordeal. I am in love with a young fellow from another city. He has helped me to marry him. He is in this city at present, working. I do not know whether anyone has told him about it or not. Unclosed is a self-addressed envelope for my return answer. Palm Sunday, one week before the day marked for the Resurrection. It has been mentioned by some church-goers that the modern church services are more dignified and solemn on Palm Sunday than on Easter Sunday; that it is observed more as a religious day; that on Easter Sunday most people are filled with pomp and pride and eagerness to celebrate the day with cain display or amusement. This is not true among the more devout, we admit, but it is obvious that many observe this day with elaborate entertaining and display, as they do the holidays. We do find, too, a brilliant new audience in church on Easter Sunday. Easter services, like New Year's Eve services, seem to have an unusual impelling power to draw to their midst procrastinating and negligent Christians, who, subservient to old master time throughout the year, sally forth like a fresh recruit to join the sanctuary throng. Every well-bred person should respect the religious sentiment of the season and worship somewhere—even an intelligent agnostic will agree that some time should be spent in church, or in one's private chamber, in meditation and prayer during Holy Week. If, however, one does lack the proper spirit for this observance, it is at least good form to respect the earnest and sincere practice of others—friends and kinsmen. The stranger attending church on Easter Sunday is expected to follow the custom of that particular church. Well-mannered people are, you know, those who are at all times thoughtfully observant of little proprieties, whether at a social gathering or a religious service. Thanking you for the advice you gave me, I am HIS SWEETHEART. Dear Friend: I am publishing your letter because it is one of four similar ones received this week, and I feel that the question is of interest to a number of us. If your case were mine, I'm sure I wouldn't tell. You say your sweetheart is from another city. You don't know much about his past, do you? And, baby, he isn't telling you so fast either. He isn't going to tell any more than he has to, and I advise you to do the same, unless you feel that you're going to worry yourself to death if you don't. The chances are just as good that he won't hear of it as they are that he will—and if he does hear, you'll have to offer your love for him as the reason why you couldn't tell. After all, that is the reason, for you may lose him by telling. Most men have not yet become reconciled to the fact that "what's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander." Wishing you happiness, EGYPSY ANN. Your Horoscope BY THEARCHER March 29 does not promise a birthyear that will show any gain or success in employment. Money matters will cause more worry. Many new ideas and romantic affairs are shown and, unless these vibrations are properly understood, these new and radical ideas will cause self-undoing. March 29 brings a birthyear full of small annoyances and delays, but eventual success is shown for those who can persevere. The vibrations favor simplicity and the higher side of life. Some help will come from the online friends and relatives, although they may not be able to give as much material aid as they can of sympathy and love. Sympathy and love are worth more than money, anyway. March 30 brings a very successful year in employment and for money matters. Those who have inventive ability and like to do unusual work of a scientific nature should take advantage of the good birthyear. Old friends and occupations will bring some gain in the birthyear for March 31. Some unusually deceptive romance that will bring happiness in the beginning will, eventually, cause heartache and ill-health. Here, again, it seems that self-unduling will cause the heartache and distress. There will be some difficulty in employment. April 1 shows some changes in romantic and domestic affairs for the birthyear, and those changes will bring many tears, for separation from loved ones is indicated. It does seem that Jupiter favors the folks of today, which will be one consolation, anyway. April 2 shows a birthyear that is like that of yesterday, but with stronger force. There will be Rogers and Dr. Jones Continue Tour in Verdun (Continued from Last Week.) SPENDING the night at Verdun, Dr. Jones and I started out early the next morning for the Argonne Forest, where the doctor had seen active service. Our first stop was near Charny, from where the huge American naval guns had shelled Verdun, for it must be recalled that the Allies' guns had much to do with the demolition of the great forts there. In this vicinity is Le Mort Honne (Dead Man's Hill), which the Germans captured by tunneling. We descended some forty feet into one of these tunnels, and the guide, to show us how much deeper it was, threw in some stones, which took some time to fall. In places these tunnels cannot be less than a hundred feet deep. This one, known as the Crown Prince's tunnel, was a rather elaborate affair with wooden stairs and wooden supports which are rotting away from the excessive rainfall, thus making descent rather dangerous. It runs all the way under the road to Dead Man's Hill. When the Allied forces captured the sector, however, they got even by shooting poison gas into the tunnel, suffocating the enemy like rats in a hole. As to the hillside itself, it is but one mass of hills and vallows from the terrific artillery duel which raged here; great trenches traverse it like snakes. All this was once a wooded region, but so blasted and poisoned is the land now that it will probably be a long time before another tree grows on it. Proceeding, we arrived at Romagne, the largest American cemetery in France. A most impressive sight. Acres and acres of well-kept lawn, velvety green, cut in the center by a broad path, while standing with military precision are deep rows of white crosses, some 15,000. Fifteen thousand men lying here, alone; cut out in the prime of life. One could not help thinking of what a sight it would have been were they all suddenly to come back into life again. The names of Negro men abound, scattered here and there. The 367th, 368th, 369th, 370th, 371st and 372d did much fighting in this region, and are all represented here. Among the names picked out by Dr. Jones and myself are the following: Sergt. Oscar A. Jones, 369th, died Oct. 1, 1918; Ulysses Tehbs, 369th; Louis Spencer, Cont some radical changes in the domestic affairs. Jupiter is in a strongly beneficial aspect and brings some good fortune. Heartaches and a full pocketbook! All of us know that combination! April 3 brings romance, love and adventure to everyone of today. Jupiter is smiling down and promises much good fortune. Some bad news concerning old matters and plans is shown. Patience and good judgment will help the folks of today. Beauty, art and music will bring success. Take advantage of this year. It means perseverance and labor. Know New York State The first savings bank in the State was opened in New York City in 1819, with total accounts of $2,087. Empire State savings banks now have deposited in them more than four billion dollars. The Hudson River is one of the oldest on the continent and, geographically, New York State traces back to the precambrian era, with the oldest of the recognizable rocks of the earth. St. Lawrence County, N. Y, with 3,099 miles of highways, leads all others. Steuken is second and Delaware third in highway mileage. New York State will have 90 delegates to the Republican National Convention this year. This is more than any other State, Pennsylvania and Illinois follow. The oldest surviving theatre bills in the Empire State are those of the John Street Theatre, New York City, and go back to 1783, when this was the only important playhouse in the city. Dunkirk, Chantanqua County, is further away from New York City, than any other town in the State. The distance is 460 miles. Artificial fee worth about twenty million dollars is yearly manufactured in New York State and has largely superseded the natural product.

Several monuments have also been raised to the white American troops, the most striking of which is the Pennsylvania at Varenues. From Romagne we went to Montfaucon, whose heights command a view of Verdun and the entire region, permitting one to see well beyond the German border. The town of Montfaucon lies precisely as it was shattered by the fire of friend and foe, the nearest approach to a standing building being the church. Montfaucon was the headquarters of the German army. It was from these heights that the German Crown Prince directed the offensive and from which he was driven by the Americans in September 1918. Dr. Jones' objective was Vienne le Chateau in the Argonne Forest and when we arrived there he had the good fortune to meet a French artillery officer, Lieut. L.

Plot's company had fought side by side with, Dr. Jones' regiment, and although the ground is much changed now, being covered in many parts by thick growths of the blackberry, Lieut. Plot was able to describe again just what had taken place, What Is a Radical? A Contributed Editorial WHEN men and women cease to allow others to do their own thinking the cry is raised that they are "radical." Today men and women are beginning to do some of their own thinking for themselves. It is, therefore, becoming increasingly important that an intelligent explanation of the term "radical" be made for the reading public, as applied to those who discuss human relations. A noted scholar once said that a radical is one who honestly seeks the truth and maintains an open mind and forms conclusions in the light of the facts that thoughtful investigation reveals. Emerson sold a radical, is a Emerson said a radical is a Our Presidents After Lea- George Washington retire- non.

When John Adams retired from the presidency, he withdrew from public life for all time. Adams was a great scholar and his last years were spent with his books. He lived for a quarter of a century after leaving the White House, and saw the day when his son was inaugurated President. Strangely, he died on the fifteenth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, and on the precease day when his great political foo, Thomas Jefferson, passed away. It was on March 4, 1809, that Thomas Jefferson left the White House, after forty years of public service. Jefferson, in his declining years, founded the University of Virginia, and he regarded this work of so much importance that on his tomb he caused to be written the following words: "There was buried Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence, of the statute of Virginia for religious freedom, and father of the University of Virginia." James Madison retired to his Montpelier estate in Virginia in 1812, and his home became the rendezvous for literary folk. He emerged into public life for a season, when, in 1829, he became a leading member of the Virginia constitutional convention. He died in 1836, at 85. (To be continued next week.) --- and the exact spots, just as' Dr. Jones himself had experienced it. Walking over this ground has to be done with great care, as it has been mined in many places, leaving hidden pits. One particular object of note in this region is what appears to be the trunk of a shattered tree, but which reality is a German observation post of rounded, almost shell-proof steel. It was a thrilling time, particularly for Dr. Jones, for here he escaped death several times while attending to wounded men, and for which service he was awarded the D. C. M., as was said. The lieutenant was warm in his praise of the Negro troops, as are all the French I have talked with on the subject. The Negro troops, American as well as French, have a secure place in the hearts of the present French generation because of their conduct in the war. In this respect one might quote from "Under Fire" by Henri Barbusse: "These colored troops and the 75's are our chief trumps. We look on them with admiration; their laughing faces and headless courage deepen the sense of fear in us. They imitate the Germans; call out 'Kamerad!' Kamerad! and then, 'No, never' Kamerad! and then they mimic the lunge forward with the bayonet that ends the appeal to brotherhood and mercy. "They live only for the words of command, 'Forward!' Forward!" "These are real soldiers" cries big Lennuse. "We're just men, ordinary men." Barbusse, whose book is a classic on the horror and misery of war, saw much fighting himself. Match his testimony with that of the jealous, Negro-hating "cracker," General Bullard, with his cry of: "Poor Negroes!" A visit to La Crucerie, a nearby forest, reveals the terrific task that was imposed on the Americans, who had to drive the Germans out of this strongly entrenched position. For miles and miles over wooden paths one passes German countryside, built of a regular underground town. In one of those was the headquarters of the Crown Prince Runnecht of Bavaria. One thing is certain: If the Allies—England, France, Belgium and huge Russia—with their vastly superior numbers and resources, had gone into the war with the same preparedness and anything near the training of the Germans, the latter could not have lasted a week. Germany entered to win, and on every hand there are still proofs that she was prepared to the last detail. As far as I have been, by this time I am completely cured of admiration for the warrior, or for efficiency and genius that is directed toward the killing of humanity in war, offensive or so-called defensive, yet I cannot help thinking what would have happened if the Allies had had a single military genius on their side. Think what would have happened if they had had a Napo- What Radical? ted Editorial young conservative and a conserv ative is an old radical. That is not hard to understand. Very often you hear the term "radical" used by a "machine-minded" person in reference to a person who thinks for himself as an epithet. If the person does not agree with the old order of things, falls to be "too too" individual, "If demands better social conditions, if he dents with the moth, if he ventures to express an opinion of his own, if he wants a change of any kind, in lodge, church, school, education, civic measures, he is at once labeled a "radical."

Napoleon took a single nation and whipped nearly all Europe. But for the intervention of America, Hindenburg would, in all probability, have turned the same trick. I said a so-called defensive war, for it always takes two to make a fight. Germany was guilty but she was forced to prepare by England, who wanted to keep her out of the world's market. She started out to assert her rights, to take her "place in the sun," and built up such an enormously strong defensive mechanism that there was no power on earth to prevent its taking the offensive at some time. All of this might have been prevented had the British been willing to give the Germans a fair chance to expand. And for a similar reason I have never had the least doubt but that the Negro will become the foremost group in American. History abounds in instances of humble groups and individuals, who, goaded on by others, have set out to do what it was alleged they were not capable of doing and finally shot far beyond the mark. As late as Goethe's time, the Germans were the laughing stock of Europe! The present tormentors of the Negro, while enemies of the present generation of Negroes, are certainly the best friends of the future generation of Negroes and the worst foes of white supremacy. As the African proverb runs: "He who torments another but teaches him to strengthen himself." There is nothing to prevent the Negro from becoming the leading group in America. Two methods might be suggested: One is that the Negroes be exterminated; the other that the whites drop their color insanity. But the second is as impossible as the first. It is now for the white man to stop the race consciousness which he had started in the darker man, not only in America but all over the world, always excepting the French, who treat Negroes as men. For the remainder of the day, Dr. Jones and I visited other parts of the battlefields, the whole being a thrilling experience for him just as it has been for all the other veterans, colored or white, who had never expected to be alive to enjoy the wonderful treat. The last time they came over they were up to their knees in mud and blood. Now they rolled over smoothly on air- cushioned tires, the most dangerous weapon being the camera shot of the German tourists. At Rhela we stopped to visit the cathedral, which was still much of a wreck. Millions are being spent on it, but can it ever be the same? of other things by the non- thinkers. Whenever a Negro insists that the liberties guaranteed by the Constitution be actually protected for all citizens, regardless of race, color or previous condition of servitude, there are those ignorances in both races who call him a "radical." The point we want to make is that the word radical is a credit, honor and compliment to anybody. A radical is a person who wants and plans for better things in human relations. A radical is a person who strives to stamp out selfishness. A radical is one who actually thinks his own thoughts and expresses them. Those non-thinkers who have no vision, no thoughts—ignorances—are the ones that yell "radical" because they are unable to visualize anything but the most ordinary conditions in life just as they are, and they must be the simplest and commonest of things, too, for them to see. In fact, as the word radical is often used it is fair to say that with many of us—(machine-minded)—a radical is anybody who does not believe as we believe; who does not conduct himself as we would like to have him conduct himself; and who does not always fall in line with the mob and do as it does. Since Negroes are not members of the Ku Klux Klan, we bag your pardon, "Knights of the Great Forest," and under cover of darkness or in the "great forest" manhandle or horseship or brand with fire or even throw brickbats and stones at him, we hurt the epithet "radical" with a vengeance. We call him names. We poor, ignorant, unthinking fools. The person we call a "radical" stands sky-high above us wog pigles. The next time we are tempted to denominate a fellow who disents from us in any form, let us stop and think—WHAT IS A RADICAL? New Negro Leadership "The American Negro's New Leaders" is the subject of a study by E. Franklin Frazier, sociologist, published in the April issue of Current History. With the old leaders like Booker T. Washington and Fredrick Douglas gone, he says, in their stand has come a leader who "is creative" and does not "make a fetish of politics." MAGAZINE PAGE Jean Toomer Short-Story Writer, Poet (1894 —) JEAN TOOMER was born in Washington, D. C., in 1894. He received his education at the public schools and Dunbar High School there; taught school for four months at Sparta, Ga. He is a contributor to several Negro and white periodicals. Toomer is among the group of foremost Negro short-story writers of today. He is the creator of an original style of writing, something unheard of and unique. The characters of his stories are taken from the very midst of life and are typical. His dialogues will eventually become a treasure to the Negro race. In his charming stories the fantastic and the realistic, the heroic and the humorous, are strangely inter-tuned The beliefs of the humble folk in Georgia, a land well known to Toomer, the various types of the Georgia villages, the beauty of the Georgian landscape, and the legends and myths of the Negro's past, form the unique texture of his stories. The conflict between the two elements in Toomer's soul, the romantic and the realistic, is strikingly apparent in his stories. Toomer has created a new school. He has been imitated by other writers with success, but they fall short of something that is essentially Toomer's. We might say that the man himself is a part of, or an element. All attempts to imitate his method have proved ruinous, but that is because there is only one Toomer. Suppose we call it his experience—and at that age we are not far from being right. Toomer has travelled; he has successfully used his experience in whatever he writes. Of life, not about life, he writes with an inexhaustible source of beauty and inspiration. His language is like flute music blown by Negro players. His pictures are delicate pastels and his characters are delineated with a firm and loving hand. His range of observation is broad, reaching from the first dawn of love in a budding maiden heart to the agony of a fighter for freedom who has lost his path in the maze of life; from the dawn-like coma of spring over sweet and delicate flower-heads, to the bugle-call of life under glaring sunlight. Toomor is a poet—a writer of youth and love, a guide through the sweet mysteries of woman's soul, an interpreter of the most gentle, tender emotions, a garden full of quiet beauty. He sheds no cheap tears. His aim is not to arouse pity. He is fundamentally an artist. He is indeed a modern Boccacoli. No words can describe the Unemployment Still Increasing in North Discriminatory Slogan Be ing Used by Cities The National Urban League, through its Department of Industrial Relations, of which T. Arnold Hill is director, reports as follows on unemployment for the month of February: "Unemployment is not merely bad for Negroes; it is critical From all parts of the country reports for February showed conditions growing worse. Not only are colored men and women not being employed, but they are being replaced by white workers. This substitution is going on in the South as well as in the North, even though the jobs taken are menial and of the type that are customarily regarded Negro jobs only. "The policy of not working white and colored employees together means that today not one or several Negroes lose their jobs to white workers, but that whole shifts and entire crews of colored workers are being sacrificed to make places for white people. One city is reported to have adopted the slogan: "No Negro must have a job any white man wants." Little Rock, Ark., illustrates this. There, two hotels turned off its bellmen and waiters; also a railroad dismissed approximately 160 shop employees; Chicago reported several instances of replacement during February. "So similar are the reports of unemployment throughout the country that it is not necessary to record the cities separately. Buffalo, with 200 families being cared for by the city, is among those feeling the situation most. Detroit appears to be suffering less from unemployment than any of the cities sending in reports. This is due to the revival of the automobile industry. Most of the colored men are being hired at the Ford plants. A loop clothing firm in Chicago hired eight salesmen who were trained by the company for the position. Six other men are in training. The St. Louis Urban League was asked to engage twenty-five women elevator operators. The firm has stipulated that they must be from five feet eight inches to six feet tall." in Washington, D. C., in 1894. on at the public schools and were; taught school for four a contributor to several Negro of foremost Negro short-story creator of an original style of and unique. The characters the very midst of life and are eventually become a treasure to big stories the fantastic and the humorous, are strangely inter- subtle charm of Toomer's stories. They are strong and delicate, emotional and restrained, almost cool, yet saturated with life. They give a strange spiritual intoxication similar to awakening in new realms. They are not always perfect in form, yet this very imperfection makes them closer to our soul. They are so intensely human, and yet they transfer us instantly into vast and serene eternity. Toomer's rather rests on his stories rather than on his poems. His poems—the very few that are his—are devoid of stability. They are artificial in many ways. "The Song of the Son" is perhaps the most finished of all his poetical compositions. It is the finest effort of his puerile genius. In that poem he seems to have imbbed the very spirit of his inner soul. His style preserves all its richness and copiousness, without any florid splendor, which marks it as the best; and his versification combines a softness and melody of flow, with a harmony which holds the mind in bewitchment. His imagery is remarkable for its luxuriance and adaptation to his subject. Toomer, a man of real and multifarious genius, wants the scruples of artistic perfection, the spirit of artistic devotion; that is his imminent shortcoming as a poet. His works in verse suggest titt, poetry is not an exacting vocal. Do but an occasional expansion a ponding upon spasmodic and in voluntary inspiration for its sincerity. Toomer has written so much of prose and so little of verse that it would be best for him to continue writing prose than to attempt the flights of poetry. Of his collected stories, it is almost impossible to make a selection from "Cane"—his first book—for they are all nearly equal in value, and done in the same style. Nat'l League Announces Fellowships The National Urban League announces that applications may be filed up to April 15 for its Fellowships for training in social work.

NATION-WIDE PLAN FOR LEGAI DEFENSE Negro attorneys throughout the United States are volunteering to have their names included in a legal directory being compiled by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, so that the national office will know at once some reputable lawyer to call upon in any large city in case of emergency. It is hoped eventually to have at least one attorney's name in every large city of the United States, so that there will be no state without some connection with the national office.

IT WILL PAY PAY PAY The benefits of co-operative ownership are many. The Tenant-owner assures himself of a permanent home—in this case of a home in a desirable location, which might be prohibitive to him without co-operative organization. Moreover, he assures to himself a thoroughly well-built home, carefully planned for economy of operation and avoidance of repairs. He guarantees himself a residence in a building occupied by persons having his own social standards and ideals. Financially he profits by investing his funds in a safe and sure proposition—one of which his family lawyer and banker will approve. Moreover, he profits in his monthly expenditures, because, while the actual cost of running the building is the same that a landlord would have to pay, the savings that result through the avoidance of unrented apartments, the expense of frequent repairs and redecoration due to change in tenancy, and the large profit that a landlord expects, revert to the Tenant-owner in lowered "rents." Further financial benefit arises from the $2\%$ amortization of the mortgage, which annually augments the value of the property, in addition to the increased value of the real estate, due to the construction of a fine, modern building and steadily improving surroundings.

During a recent divorce raid conducted by private operatives from the Garfield Presbyterian Service Bureau, 200 West 135th street, Mrs. Blythe was trapped with Herbert James, a chef on the steamship "Gatun" at the Brooklyn address.

According to letters sent out by Secretary Gleason of the committee the Negro delegates are to be kept out of the hotels and installed in the Y. M. C. A. and private residences. A delegation has been sent to Chairman Butler of the committee to inform him that they will not submit to segregation at a convention where their votes count as much as those of any other delegates. At the Cleveland and Chicago conventions they were given the same accommodations as other delegates and they propose to have them at Kansas City. THEIR PROTEST will probably be heeded.

Floyd Hayd and, superintendent of the Manhasset State Hospital on Ward's Island estimates that there are five or so names as many "mental cases" whi ARE YOU CRAZY? You may or may not be, but Dr. C. Floyd Haviland, superintendent of the Manhattan State Hospital on Ward's Island, estimates that there are five or six times as many "mental cases" which are not legally insane as there are advanced cases in the asylums. According to other authorities there are many persons who are not quite crazy enough to be in asylums and not quite sane enough to be left at large. They are protected by laws made to prevent people from being "railroaded" to asylums. PERHAPS we are all crazy in one respect or another. A psychologist once said that anybody, if observed every minute of the day, would be caught in many acts that could not be described as sane. This would apply to some of the greatest minds. Dr. Samuel Johnson had to stop and touch every lamp post with his cane; if he missed one he would walk back and tap it. Richard Wagner, the greatest of operatic composers, had a habit of suddenly keeling over and standing on his head in company. The poet Schiller could not write unless he smelled rotten apples. And what is to be said of the greatest novelist, Balzac, who always tipped his hat when he mentioned himself? It seems that if a man is successful he is merely eccentric; if he is a failure he is crazy. Stage and Public THE AMSTERDAM NEWS hopes that its readers have followed the interesting controversy between Theophilus Lewis and Salem Futt Whit- EDITORIAL PAGE ney, which has appeared for the past few weeks on our theatrical page. The question at issue is one on which our readers should have opinions, for they will be the final judges. MR. LEWIS says that the Negro performers are to blame for the present condition of the Negro stage, which, he says, is debased. He says that Negro producers, by giving a higher type of entertainment, can elevate the tastes of the people. Mr. Whitney contends that producers and actors, if they would make a living, must give the public what it wants, and that he has always tried to give it as high a type of show as it would stand for. IN SOME RESPECTS this is like the old question as to which came first, the hen or the egg. Does the stage develop the public taste, or does the public taste develop the stage? Generally the public, like a young girl, does not know what it wants till it sees it. But the public cannot see it unless the producer is reasonably sure that it will pay, for he is risking his money. Producing shows is a business; this was true even in Shakespeare's time. One thing is certain; the classics that have come down to us through the years are the ones which their contemporary publics favored. Whichever came first, the production or the public demand for it, the stage has always faithfully reflected its time. To the Limit THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION has refused to issue an order to the Pullman Company to forbid tipping. This action has been interpreted as a setback to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters in its fight for better working conditions and wages. But the defeat is more apparent than real. If tipping were the only issue the cause of the porters might be regarded as lost. BUT TIPPING is not the only issue nor even the main one. The porters are fighting for better wages and better working conditions. A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood, says that even with tips the average porter makes only $130.50 a month and that $33 of this goes for expenses incurred while on duty. Without extra pay the porters work 330 hours a month, an average of eleven hours a day, three hours in excess of the standard eight hours. Granting that the nature of the work requires overtime, the wages should be adjusted to that overtime. CONDUCTORS, engineers, firemen, brakemen and every other class of railroad workers have organized their unions and received increases of pay. Since the Pullman Company has recognized the conductors' union it has no right to refuse recognition to the porters' union. It took the conductors two years of fighting to win their raise. It may take the porters as long or longer, but if they keep fighting they will win. If they quit now they will be worse off than before. THE PULLMAN COMPANY is playing a masterful game of bluff to keep the porters from realizing their power. Its swelling dividends and the good-will of the public rest squarely on the backs of the porters, and if these men should go on a strike the company would lose millions. The Pullman Company is carrying its bluff to the limit, and the porters should carry their fight to the limit Major O. J. W. Scott MAJOR O. J. W. SCOTT, retired chaplain of the United States Army, died suddenly last week. At the time of his death he was a professor in the School of Religion, Howard University. His busy life was chocked as full of varied and useful service as was possible for one of his allotted years. School teacher, minister of the Gospel, chaplain in the United States Army, proxies in a great university—these cover the range of his service. A careful record of his life would tell the story of the religious trend of the race for the past three decades. Captain Scott was carefully and thoroughly educated. He was a graduate of the Westlyn University, of Ohio, of the Drew Theological Seminary, and of the University of Colorado. He put the full measure of learning upon the altar of his church. We have a classic example of a theological college man devoting his talents and attainments to the Christian ministry. Chaplain Scott was born in Ohio just 60 years ago and was graduated from college in the early or middle eighties. He grew up and gathered his life's inspiration from the rural and small town environment of the Middle West. At that time and place school teaching and ministry were the only callings to which he belonged and ambitions young Negro could aspire. The ministry was the more appealing. The African Methodist Episcopal Church furnished the wide open field. Other denominations had then hardly entered that region. If we scan the field carefully we shall find that practically every young Negro of Ohio, in that day, was a member of the ministry of the A. M. E. Church. We are disposed to lament the fact that the college product of the present day seems disposed to give the ministry a wide berth. The trend of times is against the ministry on the part of the college bred youth. This is at the time of the white as of the colored race. The reason is obvious. In seeking a career, ambitious youth will quest for the best opportunities. It offers the easiest opportunity for the exercise of his gifts and attainments and furnishes the best opening for usefulness and influence. The white collegian has greater excuse for avoiding the ministry than his colored conferee. With the one the world is the field; with the other the field is shut in on all sides by racial limitations. But the ministry has a much larger proportionate place for the colored college man than for the white. The application of the method of science to members of theology has been carefully defined of the collegiate of the present day against the Christian ministry. As I said in another release, this is an age of swift transformation. The religious faith of this genera Lincoln University Club Recital It was a wonderful program, so to speak, which was offered by the Lincoln University Musical Club in its concert Monday evening at the St. James Presbyterian Church. The attendance was more than 700. Directed by James E. Dorssey, a senior and a member during the season of 1923-24 of the Tuskegee Institute Quartet, the club represents a unit of great attainment among college musical organization. Although various flaws may be pointed out in the technique of their singing, those faults are easily overlooked in the melodious richness of tones and practically perfect blending. Twenty-eight voices took part in the recital and included seven bassos, eight baritones, five first tenors and eight second tenors. The club soloists are: William Pickens Jr., piano; Randal Conng, piano and band; Club accordionist Lacey DeKalff. William A. Hill, tenor; Henry A. McPherson, bartone, and Albert H. Anderson, basso-protundo. Perhaps the best rendered of the spirituals was Dott's "Listen to the Lambs." In which a fine arrangement brought out a perfect balance of tone in all four parts. "Castilla," "Olo King Cole," "The Bill O'Furey," "Oh! Didn't it Rain," "Billy the Kid," "Boy to Kentucky Bobo." "By the Lord of Minnesota," and the spiritual, "Joshua Pit die Battle oh Jericho." were other songs that were exceptionally well rendered. Of the soloists, the baritone is no doubt the best, having a rich lower voice, although his upper tones are not yet well developed. The tenor also has a good voice and sings with fine expression, but condensed his scores most of the time in falsetto pitch which made it appear if he were singing in two differents modes of voice. Mr. Pickles renders two numbers on the piano which showed exceptionally fine technique. `knath endovered to interpelt` `kucumorwesem` `which, in our belief, By KELLY MILLER tion will be shocked all but to the point of agnosticism. In Dr. Scott's day modern criti- cism had just begun to cross the ocean from Africa to Germa- tern. The doctrine of evolution had not yet infiltrated into the public mind. The Origin of the Species was published in 1889, just a few years before Dr. Scott was born. It took fully a generation for this evolutionary and revolu- tionary doctrine to do its deva- tating work in undermining the old foundations of faith. All Christian denominations were THE EDITOR - Kelly Miller - fundamentalists in those days. Aowal of belief in evolution would have been a grave heresay. This was especially true in Negro ecclesiastical circles, which must of necessity lag some decades behind theological and allusion of the times. The Negro collection is wildered amidst these confusing perplexities. But we may rest assured that within a reasonable while "the new bottle will be devised to hold the new wine." Religion and science will reach at least a working understanding, a friend's help, we may poet to seethe joy you return to their first love—the service of God and of man on the heavenly side. I might add that Negro collegians are intimidated by the fact that the ministerial field is already occupied by men of lesser preparation, who, for the most part, exhibit a prejudice toward the college man in the ministry. They question his orthodoxy and too often him pamphlets concerning for permanent. It seems that they that are over-timid. Their superior training ought to give them commanding powers. Too often the college man who goes into the ministry over-dramatizes his university education. He is too anxious for others to bow down and worship his learning which he is often disposed to rely upon as an offset for sound judgment and common sense. I know of a score of college men too ambitious for him. He has a fine wrist, however, and a highly cultivated sense of musicianship. E.R. Hall Johnson's Negro Choir justified all the good things that were said about it following its recital in Pythian Temple recently when it gave a second recital before a much larger audience last Tuesday in Town Hall. The voice of this small body of singers will, in all probability, be heard around the world before long, and those of us who claim to appreciate the songs of the Nogro, especially when they are honestly, yet beautifully interpreted, may as well show our foresight by proclaiming the hall Johnson singers now. The poem, in five parts, consisted of Spirituals, work songs, reels and bells, sung with enough originality of arrangement and interpretation to set the singers in a niche of their own. By the "St. Louis Blue," a composition known to millions, was included in the program and was well received by the cultured audience present. Nearly every singer in the Hall Johnson group sang an incidental solo in one or other of the songs, which gave just enough variety to offset whatever monotony so extensive a group might have occasioned. Except to command the group arranged especially for the male voices, and to praise the rendition of "City Called Heaven" and "Fix Me, Jesus," further criticism is unnecessary. There were numerous encores. Perry Recital The recital given by John Perry, tenor, Sunday afternoon at the Gumby Book Studio, 2144 Fifth avenue, was rather devoid of animation. This becomes more confusing by virtue of the fact that Mr. Perry was chosen as a soloist last year in the Beethoven centenary program for the New York Training School for teachers, and was later awarded a alvar medal during the celebration of New York's music week contest. His singing Sunday afternoon appeared to be mechanical and strained, especially in the rendition of the song, in emotion, and was, practically, depraved. LETTERS who have become disgusted with the ministry because those of less learning are preferred before them. Time will settle this handcap. Those of lesser learning must be only if those of collegiate degree will pleaseplain. Stephen Scott knew perfectly how to adjust himself between learning and unlearnedness. It is interesting to point out college men who became princes of the church in the earlier days. Grinkle, the Presbyterian; Procopio the Congregationalist; Cromwell, the Anglican; the prince of Bishop; Dickerson, the first college bred Bishop of the A. M. E. Church; and Simmons, the Baptist. Younger men in limited numbers are following in their train. In the great A. M. E. Church we note such crown princes as O. J. B. A. S. A. spleen, and just tellaless, and R. R. Wright Jr., who, we hear gladly, is on his way to the king's row. The number of college men who are entering the Baptist ministry is interesting and encouraging. They do not lose their spiritual unction and power by reason of their learning. Indeed, no minister can function effectively in the Negro Baptist Church who has lost his power. But the general theme is so engaging that I am tempted to exer of spiritual appeal. haust my while without more specific mention of the subject of this discourse. Major Scott was a well-rounded and well-grounded man. He touched life on many slides. have discussed with me the hour the discussion of the newer and the older foundations of faith, and have always found him as orthodox as Bryan, while open to every suggestion of new light. His wide experience as an army chaplain supplied him with a newer failing storehouse of human material. He loved God and man, for he knew them both. I was his guest at an army post on the island, where the smoothness and ease with which he functioned among his white superior officers and the colored soldiers under his spiritual care. Frequently, he took me in his machine for a long drive about the suburbs of Washington, when we would discourse upon the widest aspects of the city and secular interests. All these interested him. It was but a short two Sundays ago that I invited him to attend a discussion group which engages in discourse upon philosophic, scientific and social themes, in a detached way, for the sheer revelation of exalted dissertation. He was perfectly at home, and he actively participated in the discussion. He was a man among men, and loved the companionship of his fellows. He belonged to several military, fraternal and collegiate orders which wept at his funeral. O. J. W. Scott was intelligent, sane, high-minded, consecrated, human. His life furnished a disciple for young collegians looking forward to the gospel ministry. His career sets a capital illustration of the satisfaction and joyance of high and holy service. Surely a prince has fallen in Israel. of blending between the middle and higher registry. He was more of a lover, however, in the rendition of Burleigh's "Steal Away"—E. T. R.

An artistic program attended BLACK MAJESTY—By John W. Vandercook Harper & Bros. "WE HAVE suffered, we have grown dull, and, like cattle under a whip, we have obeyed. Why? Because, m'sieu, we have no pridel And we have no pride because we have nothing to remember. . . . If we had even the names of our great men! If we could lay our hands on things we've made, monuments and towers and palaces, we might find our strength. . . . While I live I shall try to build that pride we need, and build in terms white men as well as black can understand. . . . I will teach pride if my teaching breaks every back in my kingdom!" Thus spake his black Majesty, King Christophe of Haiti, the most glorious Negro that ever lived. Born a slave, he lived to become a king and to spurn an offer of alliance with Napoleon. The bare facts of his life are more romantic than many novels. Though unable to write his name, he had the force to carve his way to a kingdom and the mind to see that what the Negro needed most was pride—a need as poignant toy as it was in Christophe's time. Though black majesty was personified in Henry Christophie, this book does not deal with him alone. It is a compact and well-told history of the revolt of the black slaves of Haiti against the cruelty of French rule. Americans and Englishmen were not the only ones who butchered their slaves. They never did anything worse than burrowing them up to the neck in the ground and using their heads as bowling pins, with iron cannon shot for balls; or herding them in the airtight hold of a ship and suffocating them with sulphur fumes. This and more the French did. When the mulattoes were granted citizenship by the revolutionary government of France in 1789, the French in Haiti stretched the muito joltes on the rack and baked them almonds. Once the island was washed with hatred of the French. Under Boukmann, a Negro leader, the slaves met at night in the woods, and in a week 600 coffee plantations were burned and their white owners dragged out and slaughtered. Finally the revolt was put down and the survivors fled to Spanish territory under the leadership of Toussaal L'Ouverture. Toussaal was put in a prison in a Spanish town. He came back and overran the French territory where he had been a slave. Soon he felt that Negro freedom could be better attained by rejoining the French, so he turned about and reconquered the lands he had just won for Spain. As he starred across the country, proclaiming the universal emancipation of the blacks, the Negroes rose to him by thousands. Toussaal was killed by an怒魔enerogeneral ruling over the whole island. Among his volunteers were Henry Christopho and Dessalas. It is strange that the Negroes, after 200 years of brutalizing slavery, could find such men of genius as Toussaint L'Ouverture, Dessalines, Christophe and Petion, but there they were, under "Toussaint the Tiger," crushing the Spaniards, driving the English into the sea, routing the French, and sent 22,000 pickled troops, under his brilliant brother-in-law, LeClerc, to subdue, the impudent Negroes, but most of them, including LeClerc, left their bonus in Huitl. When Toussaint was finally captured by treachery and taken to Europe to die in an Alpain prison, General Dessalines became the leader. Dessalines was an illiterate Negro, but a man of great force and courage, with the voice of a lion. He had sworn an oath never to look into a white man's eyes, but with that he turned his back. One of his adventures reads like an eagle. The French invited him to a banquet. As he was about to take his place at the table an aged Negro servant woman warned him by a secret signal that he was to be assassinated at the dinner. With the roar of a lion he jumped upon the long table, ran its full length and dived out of the window. He leaped upon his horse and galloped away, with the window frame around his neck, roaring: "o arms! To arms! Independence forever!" Dessalines was finally killed in a mutatto rebellion and was succeeded by Henry Christophe. Then Christophe had never read a book and could write only half his name, he was a constructive by the musical elite was rendered Friday evening in the Grace Church auditorium on West 139th street. The program featured Henry Ehlridge, dramatic tenor, and Countée Cullen, lyrical poet, assisted by Lydia Mason, pianist. Madam R. DoGroenfreid Noxcum, French soprano, will render a recital under the naspeces of the Ladies' Progressive Club at the Grace Congregational Church, 308 West 139th street, Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock.

He had a glang 'body and an iron will. Haiti was bankrupt, so he decided to create a treasury. The Haitians indispensable house utensils were all made from the gourds, which grew in profusion. Christophe commandered all the gourds in the island and then made the peasants pay for them by raising coffee. He sold the coffee to European merchants for gold, and in a year Haiti had a mountain of money in her treasury. Soon they made Christophe king of Haiti, with a golden crown on his head and a diamond sceptre in his hand. He created Haiti, a treasured monastery, which he called Sans Souci. It was the finest mansion in the New World. High on Cape Haitien, on a rock 3,000 feet high, he built his famous citadel, which can be seen twenty miles out of sea. But he was restless. Impatient for the growth of Hati, he made every man in the kingdom work from daylight to eight o'clock, from nine to twelve, and from two to nightfall. Hati beamed at what they called slaves and thousands came to hate Christoph as a tyrant. But they feared him, and as long as his iron hand was over them they worked long and hard. In the year 1820 Christoph was stricken with paralysis. His enemies saw their chance; they rose against him and won the army over. They burned and looted; they entered the palace where Christoph lay praying, even as they approached him, Christoph, with a last gesture of majesty, sent a golden bullet through his brain. Ruth Ellis' Recital No better illustration of tragic comedy—reverting from the sublime to the ridiculous—could be imagined than that which was afforded the audience of approximately 400 which attended the dramatic recital given Wednesday evening by Ruth Ellis at the Mount Olive Baptist Church. Her interpretations on this occasion proved beyond contradiction how utter of lofty and dramatic utterance, and stamped her at once as a tragedienne and a comedienne. The important exception in the entire program was her presentation of Nicholson's "Hagar." Undoubtedly her best performance of the evening, it nevertheless appeared as if she were injecting too much emotion into the role. It was pretty hard to realize that a woman of pre-biblical days, on being driven from Abraham's household, could express so much hauteur and arrogance, so much disdain and proud emotion as Miss Ellis construed Hagar to have experienced. Her dialect group by Paul Lawrence Dunbar was admirably received, especially the poet's "In De Mormin". Several plano soles were contributed to the program by Miss Olive L. J. Leter, which were well rendered. THE POETS' CORNER Poems submitted for publication in "The Poet's Corner" will not be returned unless accompanied with a self-addressed and stamped envelope. Sonnet WHAT is this feeling that suffuses me. That fills my lowly being like a food? How shall I name it, is it bad or good. That even I should yearn a man to be? And more than man, from trivial things be free. Firm as the rock on which Aegus stood. Yet not to fall and die from fear as he: Is it ambition or vain vanity? And yet Iain would climb Olympian heights. With greater things would be commensurate. Defy the blackness of Stygian nights. And laugh at age-old destiny and life. It sure is not sin for man to yearn To mix the gifts of God in his own urn. IVAN EARL TAYLOR
