Hoover Moves to End Segregation Several Clerks in Census Department Promoted WASHINGTON, April 2.—Hoover officials have moved to stop the cry of "segregation" in his government department. Negro clerks in the Census Bureau, Department of Commerce, have been promoted within the last few days from the basement floors and other segregated sections to better jobs and more desirable quarters. The charge of "segregation" has been repeatedly made against the Treasury Department, the Department of Commerce and the Department of the interior. The change at the Census Bureau followed a conference between Secretary Hoover and some of his bureau chiefs on the one side and, on the other side, Neval H. Thomas, president Washington branch of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Robert J. Nelson, executive director of the Civil Liberties Bureau of Colored Elks, and E. W. B. Curry, editor of Springfield, O., who is a candidate for delegate to the Republican National Convention on the Hoover ticket. Southern Democrats who have been asserting that many of their constituents would vote for Mr. Hoover over Gov. Smith said the Administration was making it easier for the "dry South" to turn to the local option Governor of New York. The explanation given was in the form of a handout on the "better accommodations provided for Negro workers in the Census Bureau," which reads: "The Bureau of the Census in the course of its work has developed a division dealing with statistics particularly affecting the colored people, and in a desire to extend employment to colored members of the staff it placed this division in their control, and naturally the whole division was centered in one room. Victory for Curry. Recently some complaint has been made that it amounted to segregation, which was against the orders and the practice of the Department of Commerce. Upon the return from Europe of the Director of the Census a few days ago the matter was called to his attention and he at once distributed the colored members throughout the staff. Some twelve or fourteen persons were involved." Baltimorean Learning to Fly at Curtiss Field The second Negro ever to receive flying training at Curtiss Field, L.

Smith of Baltimore, who was referred to Merrill by Major Howard C. Davidson of Bolling Field, Washington, when he applied there for army training. Smith will work as a mechanic in the Curtiss hangars until he is familiar enough with planes and motors to be allowed flight training. The "ten-hour course" will require at least three months. Besiege Coleman learned to fly at Curtiss Field a decade ago, Merrill said, but there have been no others of hor race until the advent of Smith. FIRE LIEUT.

During the week of June 5, 1920, in the Federal Court, before a jury and Judge John C. Knox, Marcus Garvey sued the Chicago Defender for $300,000, alleging that the Chicago newspaper had labelled him in an article published in its columns. French & French, attorneys, 139 West 135th street, defended the publication. The jury's verdict in that case was a six cont one. When the New York attorneys presented their bill, Robert S. Abbott, publisher of the Defender, declared it excessive and refused to pay. The matter dragged along for some time and finally French and French entered suit in the Supreme Court for $30,000. Cornellus McDougal was their attorney and Attty, Pope B. Billups appeared for the newspaper.

HOLD-UP OF THE NEST CABARET FOILED Three Men Arrested by Police on Spot; Another Woman and Man Taken Later Manager "Dude" Adams Blackjacked - White Patron Shot - Patrolmen Johnson and Mahoney Brave Under Fire More exciting than a movie super-thriller was the attempted holdup and the actual shooting up of the Nest Club cabaret, 169 West 133d street, about 5 o'clock last Wednesday morning, at which time Patrolmen John A. Johnson (of Brooklyn) and Eugene J. Mahoney, both of the West 135th street station, risked their lives to capture three of five of a dangerous band of alleged gangsters, including a woman, who recently came from Youngstown, O., to terrorize Harlem. This crime quintette has been identified by two night club owners, two cab drivers and one speakeasy proprietor as the bandits that held up and robbed them recently, the police report. TWO Three shots were fired, one bullet striking George Burns, 27, white, 128 East Twelfth street, a patron, in the left foot, necessitating his removal to Harlem Hospital. Another bullet nearly struck a musician when it shot off the mouthpiece of his saxophone. William R. "Dude" Adams, manager of the Nest, suffered incarctions and contusions of the head when he was beaten with the butt end of a revolver held by one of the robbers. The prisoners are George Davis, 28, 269 West 140th street, accused of firing the shots; Arthur Bennett, 25, 322 West 145th street; Van Harris, 22, Mac Brown, 28, and Gladys Bennett, 20, all of 124 West 135th street. They were arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate McQuade, who held them without ball for a further hearing on charges of assault, robbery and violation of the Sullivan law. Two 33 Specials and one 45 automatic weapons were taken from the prisoners. The bandit party entered the club as patrons and later drew their guns. "Dude" and his assistant manager, Leroy Roberts, 433 Lennox avenue, resisted and Davis is said to have fired three shots and clubbed "Dude" with his revolver. The doorman ran out and summoned Patrolmen Johnson and Mahoney and when they entered the club they found Harris guarding the door, gun in hand. Harris thrust his weapon into the stomach of Patrolman Mahoney, who felled Harris with a swift kick before he could fire. Patrolman Johnson dashed inside saw Bennett standing by the register terrorizing about two patrons with his weapon. Because of the crowd Johnson feared to fire and took a flying leap at Bennett and subdued him. Roberts in the meantime grappled with Davis and turned him over to the policemen. Brown and the Bennett woman had fled before the police arrived. Davis and Bennett threw their guns in the clonkroom Davis, Harris and Bennett were taken to the police station and the wounds they sustained while resting the officers were treated by Dr. Leonoff from Harlem Hospital. Burns, whom the patrolmen found lying on the floor when they entered the Nest, was removed to the hospital. The prisoners turned informers and Brown and the Bennett woman were later arrested at their home. Nest's Second Shooting On June 6 of last year Arthur Bryson, 24, popular Harlem dancer, was shot in the Nest by Michael Cappula, 26, white, 239 East Tenth street, well known convict and East Side gangster, who was in the Nest in company with Dorothy Lavelle, 25, white, 23 East Fifty-sixth street. Bryson suffered a flesh wound in the leg but recovered. Bryson later told a reporter that he settled with Cappolina for $3,000 cash though his attorney. If Bryson had appeared against Cappolina it is probable that Cappolina would have received a life sentence as a fourth offender. Detective Webber Cee the West 135th street station was the arresting officer. The Youngstown crime quintette was jailed Friday without bail to await the action of the Grand Jury when arranged in Heights Court before Magistrate Vitale.

Shankle is said to have attacked and badly slashed Henshaw with a knife following an argument on the job at 233d street and White Plains avenue. Other workers, seeing Henshaw fall unconscious, went after Shankle with a shower of bricks and he ran and took refuge in the basement of 242 West 233d street. He was rescued from the crowd by Detectives Carroll, Ryan and Foster of the Wakefield station, who placed him under arrest. Henshaw was removed in a serious condition to Fordham Hospital by Dr. Tracey.

He is in the Tombs prison awaiting the jury's action. Stephenson is said to have entered the drug store of Harry Rothman, 27 East 175th street, Saturday night wearing a mail carrier's coat but hatless and asked for the registered mail and the post paymaster's envelope containing $66 from the postal substation window. Stephenson's hatless appearance aroused Rothman's suspicions and as the drugrist looked toward the street for the "mailman's" truck Stephenson grabbed the mail and ran, it is said. After a short chase he was cornered by Patroline Ford of the Highbridge station. Stephenson is said to have obtained $300 from another druggist last December by the same method.

On that date Dr. Seth F. Stewart, 33, 258 West 136th street, accused of performing an illegal operation upon Miss Lovey, and Fisher Duckett, 20, 32 West 181st street, the girl's sweetheart and co-defendant with Dr. Stewart on the abortion charge, will also be arraigned. Both men are at liberty under $5,000 and $1,000 bond, respectively, ball for Duckett having been reduced from $10,000 by Magistrate Vitalo on March 26. Attorney Frederick D. Johnson, 208 Broadway, appeared as counsel for Miss Levy. During the recess period of the court the matter of ball was discussed in the magistrate's private chambers. Her brother and two friends also accompanied Miss Levy and she almost had to be carried. She was dressed in a dark brown, fur-tri-colored coat, peach-skin hostery, guise-med slippers, navy blue dress and a close fitting, little blue hat. One could not resist a wave of sympathy for Miss Levy as one read the deep pain in her features, which often twitched. While resting in the complaint room she was enfolded in the arms of her brother, whose heart seemed to be silently bleeding for his unfortunate sister. While resting in this position she seemed to find a haven of safety as though her brother's arm shut out all the world's cruelty. At the time the girl was taken to the hospital by Duckett, another serious operation was necessary to save her life and for many days it was believed she would die.

AS AVES, Mr. Williams specifically accuses the arresting officer, Emmanuel Howard, one of two Negro detectives in the squad, of having struck Mr. Jones in the mouth and treated him so brutally that he was forced to go under a physician's care after the arrest. Nine policy slips are said to have been found in various rooms of the Jones home and two are said to have been found on the person of Edward N. Beckles, 306 West 12th street, who was visiting Mr. Jones at the time.

When interviewed Friday afternoon by a reporter, Commissioner Warren and Inspector Valentine would make no comment regarding the action to be taken on the complaint. That the officers were mishied in making the raid is the opinion Mr. Jones expressed during an interview at his home Saturday evening. He states that, when his wife questioned Detective Howard as to the meaning of the intrusion, the latter replied that they were searching for a black-and-white concern which they were told was sponsoring the numbers lottery there. Mr. Jones' story of the raid is as follows: "On the morning of the 24th (March) I was sitting in the parlor holding a business conversation with Mr. Beckles when some knuckoned on the door. I raised the parlor window and saw a man dressed in civilian clothes, who asked me for a Mrs. Johnston. I replied that she did not live here, closed the window and resumed my conversation. A few minutes later, or, to be more specific, about 9:30 a.m., the door opened suddenly and six men rushed in. "I found out later that my son, Bertram, 15 years old, who had been sent on an errand, returned just about the time that the officer was preparing to leave. He told me that the officer, seeing him with a key in his hand, wrenched his wrist, took away the key, beckoned to the other white fellows across the street—about five of them—and they all rushed together into the house." Detective Howard, in testifying before Magistrate Flood at Heights Court on the morning of March 24, denied that he took the key from Mr. Jones' son. He claims that the door was opened to admit the boy and that he followed him in. James Parrish, 18, 210 West 183th street, a laborer, and George Morrison, 18, an entertainer, 230 West 124th street, were held without ball for a further hearing when arraigned Saturday before Magistrate Goodman in Harlem Court on charges of robbery made by Jerome Phillips, a taxicab chauffer of 201 West 120th street. Phillips charges that he was walking through 128th street when, in front of 220 W., Phillips summoned him into the hallway by asking him to assist him in carrying out a trunk. When he entered the hallway, Morrison, Phillips charges, pointed a revolver at him and commanded him to throw up his hands. Purrish then went through his pockets and robbed him of $1.50. After the robbers had made their escape, Phillips reported the matter to the police of the West 123d street station. Yesterday Detectives Chiquette and Graham of the West 123d street station located Parrish and Morrison at 229 West 123d street and arrested them. In the possession of Parrish the detectives allege they found a loaded automatic revolver and an additional charge of violating the Sullivan Law was made against him. Both men were positively identified by Phillips as the men who robbed him, the police say. Parrish and Morrison pleaded guilty when arraigned in court. To Direct Collections R. P. Hamlin, formerly of the National Council of the Young Men's Christian Association, will serve as a special secretary at the West 155th street branch for the next ninety days in the interest of stimulating collections on subscriptions made by members and friends during the Expansion Campaign held in the spring of 1927. Bandmaster Granted Interlocutory Decree Ralph Redman, 305 West 120th street, former lieutenant and bandmaster of the old Fifteenth Regiment, was granted an interlocutory decree of divorce from his wife, Estelle Rodman, 370 St. Nicholas avenue, by Judge Erlangen in Suprema Court Thursday. David C. Lewis, 69 West 120th street, was named as correspondent, Anna Lewis, the latter's wife, is suing for divorce, also, naming Mrs. Redman as correspondent. The two divorce suits grew out of a raid on Mrs. Redman's apartment last December, at which time she and Lewis were found together in a room by their husband and wife, respectively. The raid was conducted by operatives of the Bouin National Detective Agency, 110 East 125th street. Alderman John Clifford Hawkins was Redman's attorney. Jumps to "L" Track To Save Fallen Man The life of a man believed to be James Watson, 2389 Eighth avenue, was saved about 7:30 a.m. Saturday when he fell to the I. R. T. tracks of the elevated road at the Eighth avenue and 125th street station by the quick action of Abu Reynard J. Carpenter, process server, 237 West 129th street, who shouted to a guard to halt an approaching train and jumped to the tracks and lifted the man, apparently suffering from a fainting spell, back to the platform with the aid of other persons. Women screamed as the man fell and they saw the train only fifty yards away. The train was signaled in time to prevent accident. After first-aid treatment the man was removed to Harlem Hospital in an ambulance. Killed by Truck A technical charge of homicide was lodged against Frank Hackett, 28, 250 West 123rd street, a truck driver for the 123rd Street Cleaning Department, when he was arraigned before Magistrate Flood in Morrissania Court Sunday and held in $1,000 ball for a hearing in Bronx Homicide Court Tuesday. Hackett's truck ran over and killed Gerson Mermelstein, 50, white. 2114 Clinton street, Saturday morning at 180th street and Webster avenue. DR. E. ALEXANDER ON 10-DAY SOUTHERN TRIP Dr. Ernest R.

Previous to his death, Brooks is said to have raised a disturbance in the neighborhood and to have acted suspiciously when the attention of the police was called to him by a telephone call from a woman at 1750 Prospect place, Brooklyn. According to his wife, Ida, who lived with him at the Prospect place address, he had been acting strangely for several days and had become a victim to a sort of religious frenzy. Friday night, she said, he had gone about the neighborhood knocking on doors and announcing that "the Day of Judgment had come." Her efforts to quiet him were unavailing, she further states, and he had been in several fights with neighbors earlier during the night. She was unable to tell the police where Brooks had secured the pistol, he had been a stovedore all his life, she said in conclusion, and had always been a steady worker until a few weeks ago when he began to spend all of his life reading religious magazines and chanting pravera.

H. Robinson, Pastor of St. Luke A. M. E. Church, and Woman, Victims, Had Just Left Revival Services — Both Killed Instantly Harry J. Fitzpatrick, white realtor of 321 Bedford Park boulevard, the Bronx, is to be sued for $75,000 as the result of an auto accident on Wednesday midnight, which caused the instant death of the Rev. J. H. Robinson, 70, 208 East 100th street, pastor of the St. Luke A. M. E. Church, 133d street, between Lenox and Fifth avenues, and Mrs. Lillian Morant, 47, 47 East 132d street. Funeral services were held for the two deceased on Sunday afternoon, after which the body of Rev. Mr. Robinson was interred at Woodlawn Cemetery, and that of Mrs. Morant returned to the morgue at remanded to the Tombs under $25,000 ball to await the action of the Grand Jury. The police allege that at the time of the accident Fitzpatrick was driving without a license and was intoxicated. It was a most pathetic scene which took place within the key index room of the morgue when S. J. Robinson, son of the deceased pastor, arrived to view his father's remains. The attendant drew out the shofl from the refrigerated compartment in which the body was hidden from view and disclosed the remains of the elder Robinson. The son reverently raised his hat, and then, staring fixedly at his father, he said solemnly: "You were the best dad in the world. I am sorry it happened, but I swear to you that I will take care of mother as long as she lives." At the home of the Robinsons it was learned that the deceased pastor had conducted a revival at his church on the night he met his death. He was apparently on his way home when the accident occurred. His elderly wife, Louisa, has been confined to bed from the shock she received when the news of her husband's violent death first reached her. Besides his wife and son, the late pastor is survived by a grandson, James Robinson, a daughter-in-law, Willabel Robinson, and a nephew, William Robinson, all residing at the late address of the deceased. Mrs. Morant is survived by three daughters: Mary, Modestine and Mabel Colburn. The services of Max D. Steuer, famous trial specialist of 233 Broadway, have been retained by S. J. Robinson to handle his damage suit. Miss Mary Morant states that she, also, will shortly open a civil action against Fitzpatrick.

Mr. Robinson was interred at Woodlawn Cemetery, and that of Mrs. Morant returned to the morgue at Bellevue Hospital from where it was shipped on Monday to Charleston, S.C. The accident took place at the intersection of 133d street and Lenox avenue, and was witnessed by Alexander R. Martin, 131 East Portieth street; Lucy Nelson, 222 West 131st street; Susie Brown, 408 Lenox avenue; W. T. Bunch, 21 West 118th street, and Charles Johnson, 111 West 133d street. According to the last two witnesses named, they were holding a conversation at the candy stand at the northwest corner of 133d street and Lenox avenue, when their attention was attracted to the intersection of the two streets by the sound of an impact. They state further that they saw a car soweve slightly from its course, pause momentarily and then renew its course slowly toward 132d street. Seeing two bodies lying on the ground between the car tracks on the uptown side, Johnson raised a cry and succeeded in attracting the attention of a passerby who stopped the fleeing car, a Buick coupe, at the corner of 132d street and Lenox avenue. Bunch, who had been left behind, crossed the street and alided in placing the bodies in taxis. They were taken to Harlem Hospital, where Doctor Danetz stated that death had occurred instantly.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4, 1928 Number Playing May Be Losing Its Thrill That the art of guessing the "numbers" seems to have lost quite a few of its forecasters is substantially proven by the fact that only five policy players were sentenced in Special Sessions Monday morning in comparison to the twenty-eight who were remanded to the Workhouse by the same court on the same date last month. On this occasion only one was sentenced to the Workhouse. The penalty was sixty-days, and was imposed on Gilbert Brown, 31, formerly of 221 East Ninth-fifth street Edward G. Benson, 48, 119 West 135th street; Philip Lamar, 26, 513 Third avenue; Joseph Wallace, 147 West 141st street, and Harold Miller, 26, 320 St. Nicholson avenue, all arraigned on the same charge, were given sentences of 30 days each, the execution of which was suspended. Mr. Clerk, G. P. O. Clerk, Sues Wife for Divorce A well known Harlemite, Clerk by name and a clerk by profession, has instituted action for an absolute divorce in the Supreme Court, Brooklyn, against his wife. Walter G. Clerk, a clerk in the General Post Office, and who resides at 125 West 142d street, alleges that his wife Kitzu A. Clerk, an actress, has been unfaithful to him, according to papers filed with Supreme Court Justice Edward Riegelmann by his attorney, Rufus L. Perry, recently. In his complaint Clerk stated that he and his wife were married in 1918, and they are the parents of a boy. Clerk states that in 1922 Mrs. Clerk was found with one Mr. Jones at 83 Lackawanna avenue, Newark, N.J. He also names one Mr. Campbell who caused his wife to forget her marriage vows. This took place in Philadelphia in 1922. He also claims that the last time he heard of his wife she was in Los Angeles, Cal., and that she was going under the name of Dot Campbell. It is believed that Mrs. Clerk is still in California as the process servers of Mr. Perry could not locate her and she was served by publication. NEW JERSEY MAN ACQUITTED OF MURDER Not guilty of murder was the verdict of a jury which acquitted Charles J. Young, 30, 19 Montgomery street, Jersey City, last Tuesday, at the end of the third day of his second trial for the murder last August of Albert Benford, formerly of 50 Montgomery street. Not represented by Atty. Bob He was represented by Atty. Rob ert. S. Harterpye. Supreme Court Justice Guy Decides Mrs. Kelley Was Served in Holt Suit Supreme Court Justice Guy Decides Mrs. Kelley Was Served in Holt Suit Complainant Had Been Awarded $7,543 and Costs for Alleged Libel Following Expulsion From Invincible Temple With the announcement that his mind was made up that proper service had been made on Mrs. Emma V. Kelley, grand secretary of the Grand Temple, I.B.P.O.E., of W., in the case of Mrs. Jennie Holt and the Grand Temple, in which Mrs. Holt was awarded a verdict for an alleged libel of $7,543 and costs, Justice Guy, who sat as referee in the case, doomed the Grand Temple to the probable ultimate paying of the jury's award to Mrs. Holt, plus the additional cost of the litigation. Justice Guy, who heard the case as referee on the designation of Supreme Court Justice Callahan, made the remark following the close of the hearing Wednesday in Part II of the Supreme Court. The case has been going on for several weeks and was heard again Wednesday after being adjourned from Friday, March 16. Gas Receipt for $7.70 Stolen, Woman Charges Joseph Swingler, 26, 48 Edge combe avenue, a baker, was held in $500 ball for trial in Special Sessions when arrested before Merges Atty. Francis E. Rivers, who appeared for the grand temple at the request of the grand legal adviser, Perry Howard, placed on the witness stand Mrs. Kelley, her secretary, Mrs. Wardell, Mrs. Kelley's daughter, Buena Kelly Gibson, and James Harris, an attorney of Norfolk, Va., the grand secretary's home city, and Mrs. Nettle Rosch, all of whom testified that Mrs. Kelley had never been served with the necessary papers in the suit of Mrs. Holt against the grand temple. Under the cross examination of Mrs. Holt's attorney, Ruth Whitehead Whaley, their stories were all badly shaken, however, and caused the referee to remark that their testimony was the best asset in the defense of Mrs. Holt. For the Holt side, Atty. Whitehead tended to prove to the referee's satisfaction that the late Atty. Wilfred H. Smith had properly served Mrs. Kelley on the night of June 9, 1921, in front of 42 West 132d street. Justice Guy's hearing of the case grew out of the awarding to Mrs. Holt by a sheriff's jury of $7,543 in an uncontested case which the grand temple permitted to come to trial recently without being represented. The whole case is an outcome of the expulsion by Invincible Temple, No. 77, of this city of Mrs. Holt on charges, and the temple's refusal to relinstate the woman after an order to do so had been issued by Mr. Justice Ford. That order was recently reversed by the Appellate Division and is being appealed to the Court of Appeals by the Holt faction. In February an amicable settlement of the entire affair was suggested by the grand exalted ruler by the reinstatement of Mrs. Holt in invincible Temple and the dropping on her part of all law suits. This settlement was said to have been satisfactory to Mrs. Holt, but the terms offered by Invincible Temple included the writing of a letter of apology by Mrs. Holt, so it is said. This she refused to do, with the result that the temples of New York State are now involved in law suits that are likely to be far reaching in their effects and sure to prove highly costly before their final settlement. Woman Convicted Of Grand Larceny Martha Davis, 22, 107 West 126th street, a niece of the Rev. Moses Paylor of 184 Duffield street, Brooklyn, was sentenced last Wednesday morning in Part II of General Sessions to serve an indefinite term in the Bedford Reformatory following her conviction on a charge of grand larceny in the second degree. She was arrested recently on the complaint of Mrs. Rebecca Levinston, 545 West 164th street, who told probation officers that, on the occasion of a previous visit made by Miss Davis, the defendant stole two rings valued at $1,000 which she had placed in the point of a slipper and secreted in a clothes closet. The two rings have since been recovered. Her uncle, the Rev. Paylor, contends that she stole the rings in order to secure funds with which to pay her rent. This assertion is stoutly denied by Nathaniel Davis, the defendant's husband, who states that at the time his wife committed the robbery he had a bank account of $80. He does admit, however, that he allowed his wife to pay one week's rent from a part of the proceeds derived from pawning the rings. Old Offender Sent to Prison for Life Term Paul Burt, 47, alias John Kelly, alias Edward Kennedy, who gave his address as 221 West Twenty-fifth street, was sentenced to the pententary for life on account of his record when his case was disposed of in Part I of Special Sessions last Wednesday morning. Burt, it was revealed by his record, has been convicted several times on various offenses, and has served short terms in the reformatory, city prison, and in Sing Sing every year since 1916. He was charged on this occasion with possession of a drug.

Swingler is accused by Mrs. Helen Richardson, 46 West 132d street, with the theft of a gas receipt which he removed from a trunk she left in a storage place at 10 East 133d street. After securing the receipt, Swingler is alleged to have secured $7.70 from the gas company in return for the receipt. Mrs. Richardson had left the $7.70 as a deposit when gas was opened in her apartment. Hoover for President Meeting Poorly Attended A complete and almost enviable satisfaction with the conditions of the Negro in the South in his relation to the white man was expressed by the Rev. C. C. Neal, president of Haygood Industrial College, Pine Bluff, Arkansas, at a mass meeting of about thirty people held at the Rendall Memorial Presbyterian Church, 59 West 137th street, Friday night, under the auspices of the Hoover for President Colored State Committee of New York. The Rev. Mr. Neal, who was appointed on the Flood Committee by Secretary Herbert Hoover, covering 1,000 miles of the flood area in six months, spoke of Mr. Hoover's fairness to the Negro flood sufferers. A person in the audience asked the Rev. Mr. Neal if it would not be better for the Negro to stop being a footstool for the white man, to stop his begging and demand his rights; especially to demand his rights through his voting strength. Rather abashed, the Rev. Mr. Neal agreed with his questioner. ALABAMA COUNTY CONVICTS WHITE MEN For the first time in the history of Washington county, Alabama, white men have been convicted of murder for killing a colored man. A cliping from the Montgomery Advertiser states that the white men killed Oliver Lee, storekeeper and plantation manager, because they wished to extend their hog range over 2,000 acres of ground which Lee controlled as manager for another white man. On a serious charge made by Agraphinal Cruz, 17, 20 East 109th street, Louis Pagan, 19, 56 West 112th street, was held in $1,000 ball for a further hearing when arraigned before Magistrate Goodman in Harlam Court Saturday. The girl disappeared from her home and, at the request of her sister, with whom she lives, a general alarm was sent out for her by the police of the East 104th street station. After an absence of three days the girl returned home and, when questioned by Detective Cunson of the East 104th street station, she implicated Pagan, whose arrest followed. The girl told the detective that Pagan had taken her to a furnished room at 245 West 117th street, where she remained during her absence from home. She further charged that she was assaulted by Pagan. When arraigned Sunday Pagan admitted his guilt. He stated he loved Miss Cruz and wanted to marry her. The girl, when questioned, stated she, too, loved Pagan and was willing to marry him. The case was then adjourned to enable the couple to secure a license and become married. A charge of incorrigibility was made against the girl and she was THREE held for arraignment in the Woman's Court. LEAD PIPE STOLEN. Dillard Colea, 22, 1 East 131st street, was held for a further hearing when arraigned Saturday before Magistrate Goodman in Harlem Court on a charge of burglary.

Throughout these United States special services are being held both day and night. Some people who did not resolve to give up things for the entire Lenten season are giving them up this week.

This resolution may apply to the coming Sunday—Easter—or it may apply to all Sundays. To some of the modern day thinkers, however, going to church is a form. If it so happens that your work prevents you from attending service, no doubt you have just as fair a chance of "being saved" as the man who goes to church every time the door is opened.

Afterburn and Reining Classes— Personal and Reining Classes— ENROLL, NOW-FORFIT BY A VALUABLE TRAINING NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4, 1928 HOUSEWINE'S EXCHANGE Freshening the Home for Summer. Surely, in the spring there is no woman whose fancy does not turn to thoughts of making her home more beautiful. Each room looks stuffy and drab and shabby and sadly in need of a new dress to match the gay spring weather. Since few of us can reformish any home in honor of some special occasion, no matter how important, it comes as welcome news that any shabby, out-of-date room may be transformed into real loveliness by simple methods and comparatively small expenditure. Color. Color, new arrangements and lovely details will go almost the entire way toward beautifying the house which has become out of date and shabby. This can be done without discarding any major properties at all. Color is cheap, offering itself most inexpensively in paint, cretonnes and plain stuffs of brilliant hue. New arrangements are cheap, too, for it costs nothing to try sofa, table and chairs in some new cozy grouping; to see how the beds will look against some other wall. When a sofa is shabby, make a slip for it and rejoice in being up to date, as well as fresh and new. If the cheap old bookcase is an eyesore, replace it with the smarter built-in shelves, painted to match Plan Center for Working Girls Myrtle Anderson League Inc., Leases Premises in West 136th Street A new welfare center, with a home environment for working girls, will be opened about May 1 at 122 West 136th street by the Myrtle Anderson League, Inc., it was announced yesterday by Attty Myrtle Anderson Howard, president of the league. The building for the new center has been leased for one year with an option to buy. The advantages to be shared by the working girls associated with the league will be comfortable living quarters at a very nominal rent, a reading room, an assembly hall and cozy dining-room. An Industrial Adjustment Bureau will also be maintained for vocational guidance and there will be special classes in industrial efficiency, ethical culture, health and hygiene, civics and politics, commerce and fine arts. A matron to act as maternal adviser and sympathetic helper will be permanently retained at the center, Atty. Howard said. Girls who graduate from the industrial efficiency class will be recommended for higher positions through the Industrial Adjustment Bureau. The work of center will be largely confined to progressive working girls whose environment offers no home influence or ambitions encouragement. The Myrtle Anderson Women's League, Inc., was organized for welfare work among Negro women of Harlem four years ago by Atty. Howard, its president. Other officers of the league are as follows: F. E. Lane and Georgia Kelley, vicepresidents; Edna Powell, temporary secretary; and Retta Brown, treasurer. Household Hints So that apples will not acquire that brown look after peeling, always use a stainless knife or toss the apple into a bowl of cold water immediately after peeling. When you decide to lay your felt hat away for the Spring or coming Summer, clean it with fuller's earth, stuff tissue paper into the crown to preserve the shape, and then wrap the hat up tightly and put it in a small dustproof bag. To take the rust from kulves rub them well with kerosene. the woodwork. If the radiator is unconcealed, paint it to match the walls, or try some practical way of concealing it. In informal rooms often a home-made shelf set upon two wooden end pieces and curtained with plain goods or a serviceable cretonne, will hide the radiator effectively. Give some thought to your floor coverings. Hooked rugs may be made at home by means of an adjustable rug frame, a pattern to go by, a tube needle and gay-hued yarns. It is amazing how a hooked rug or so will dress up a home. Then, it is possible to have old woolen rugs rewoven very inexpensively. All of this can be done at very little cost and the desired effect obtained for eating. Jell-o Eggs for Easter. Mothers will be interested in the following dessert idea for Easter Y. W. C. A. Notes Those who witnessed the two plays which were repeated on last Thursday evening by the Y. W. C. A. Dramatic Class, under the direction of Miss Lillian W. Voorhees, were delighted to see such fine results from a few months of work. The first play, "The Burglar," by Margaret Canneron, was humorous. The second play, "Fanchette," by F. H. Harris, was delightful, the characters being dolls who, according to an old nursery tradition, come to life at midnight and talk and play together for an hour. The members of the casts were: Mrs. W. Moss, Mrs. Lilla Coleman, Mrs. W. Virginia Whitchend, Miss Helen Strawn, Mrs. Olive Joseph and Mrs. Mayme Riley, Miss Louhe Joseph was unable to be present because of being ill. The plays and the pageant were repeated on Thursday evening for the benefit of those holding tickets for the "Carnival of Spring" who could not get into the auditorium. Dr. Alonza De. G Smith was the speaker for the service on Sunday afternoon. Special Easter music was rendered by the choir. A series of talks on "New Psychology" by Mrs. Mary E. McVicker will begin tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock. The first meeting will be open to registrants and non-registrants. Other meetings will be open to registrants only. Mrs. Vicker will speak every Tuesday afternoon at 1:45 and every Thursday evening at 8 o'clock for the next five weeks.

Sketches Off to Wonderful Start Thompson and Preer Given Ovation at Alhambra Theatre APPLAUSE FOR ALL Another Playlet Underlined for Showing at This House Next Week If the start of the Alhambra Players this week is a safe guide, it would seem as though the management of the big theatre made a wise move in adding drama to its programs. There was applause—and more applause—and then cheers, as the play, "The Panther," proceeded. Each of the favorites was greeted with what actors call a "reception"—that is to say, a friendly burst of handclapping as they first appeared. Evelyn Preer and Edward Thompson were warmly received. Quite an ovation greeted Charles H. Moore, and when J. Lawrence Crimer started his villainy the response was most amphibious. Alice Gorgas did a great job with the Sussex Sutton well, they just loved her. Norman Houston's play is a heartthrob affair of tangled lives. It held the Alambra audience tense to the pistol-shot finish that ends the french career of the panther in human form. The setting of the play was appropriate even rich. An evidence of Alambra roughness with which the Alambra does things was presented in the fact that, after the first performance, all the stage furniture used was discarded and an entire new set provided. This was merely because the technical staff decided that the first set, although sumptuous, was a bit sombre, and so a brighter set in red velvet was mounted. The "Smiling so" was divided into two parts—so there is laughter both before and after the drama. In the funnakiak l. Sandy Burns is aided and abetted by big, jovial Andrew Fairchild, besides all the other favorites. Tod Blackman dances and leads the sixteen girls Elora, Johnson make a melody about as a blues singer—and how?—to use the curer expression. George Wiltshire, Inez Dennis, Amanua Randolph and Zudora all keep the safety going, and there's never a show moment. All the features of the program are given at every performance, and the principal show Wednesday will have them all. The principal photoplay is "The Breath of Scandal," with Betty Elythe and Patsey Ruth Miller. All New Next Week. "Why Women Cheet" will be the next drama by the Alhambra Players, revealing phases of New York life. All the company will have roots quite different from this week. Many people are already looking forward to Monday, wondering what these versatile people will do next. The revue in the new program will be "The Gang" by John and Sandy Hurms and all "the gang" will have some seagrass frolics Buffalo Bill Jr. will be the pho toplay star in "Ballyhoy Buster."

If one must jump by the amount of applause given these players, then it is safe to predict that this form of entertainment will meet with the hearty approval of Lincoln audiences for some time to come.

Next week "The Getaway" will be behind this week Slim Henderson and John Mason are leading the revue bunch over the jumps with "And How." to be followed by another of its kind for next week.

It proves a worthy successor to "The Quarterback," "Knockout Reilly" and "Man Power" the recent hits that have lifted Dix to such lofty heights of popularity. The supporting cast is exceptionally good. Dix also has his pictures have able players in them. Mary Brian, who played in two of his recent pictures, is again the leading woman in this one. As an American society girl she has one of the best roles of her career. Other players are well cast, including the 150 Chinese who are seen in the atmospheric scenes. "Sorrell and Son" at The Douglas Theatre Father-and-son, love is the theme of "Sorrell and Son," Herbert Brenon's production of Warwick Deeping's best selling novel, made into a United Artists picture and offered at the Douglas Theatre for five days beginning Saturday, April 7, H.

Nilsson as DeWalt; Nellie Trevor as Thomas Roland; Alice Joyce as Fanny Garland; Mary Nolan as Molly Roland, and Louis Wolthem as Sergeant Buck Much of "Sorrell and Son" was filmed in England and with the aid of the author, Warwick Deeping. All of the film, "Sorrell and Son" falted to the spirit and letter of Warwick Deeping, who ended of the film is that of the book. Herbert Brenon, who made "Peter Pan" and "Beau Geste," says that "Sorrell and Son" is his best motion picture. A father himself, Mr. Brenon believes the story of "Sorrell and Son" is that of any and all the son, and that the appendix of the film is supplemented by its spiritual effect on men and women who view it.

Monday will see "Porgy" enter its last week at the Republic Theatre, and on Monday, April 9, it is booked to open an engagement, at the Hollis Street Theatre in Boston. At the moment it appears that there is a movement afoot to bar "Porgy" from being shown in Boston. This proposed ban on Mr. and Mrs. Heyward Du Bose's play is told to be part of the same protest was was raised against and prevented "Julia Belle," which employ several colored actors in its cast, from being shown in the Hub. On that subject, the Boston Transcript, in its issue of March 25, refers to the present censorship there as having a "political cast." Also that publication states that the published version of the play is available upon play itself, in an effort to be the first Theatre Guild production to be sent to Boston, is a prominent contender for the Pulitzer Prize for this year. The Transcript goes on to say: "Suppose it should win—the play that Boston banned. And one more sneer goes the country round."

After the little ripples which always occur at the revue, the audience were smoothed out, "Bare Facts" was greatest by the audience as one of the fastest and funniest revues of the season. The revue opened with a rousing overture by Johnny Dunn and his fifteen-piece orchestra. Johnny was bugler and leader for the late Florence Mills and for years was the musical portion of Johnny Hudgins' famous monotone act. The opening number for the monotone was one of the most gorgeous ever staged in a local theatre—a beach scene in which beautiful girls sing and dance, a quartet sings Spirituals, Spanish dancers tango.

A real old southern 'daraye' is a rare character on the contemporary stage, principally because real old southern colored types usually are played by white actors in burrow cork. And it there is one type which may be misrepresented it is a Negro played by a white thespian, Hence, it is a relief to go to the Garrick Theatre these days and see a Kentucky house servant characterized by a colored actor. Such a relief is afforded through the medium of Walter Robinson's performance in a bottled in Booth theodore of Kentucky distillery which Herman Gantvoort has brought in the Garrick Mr. Robinson is one of the better known Negro actors of the New York stage. He began his career in "The White Slave" in 1893. From that year to his current appearance in Philadelphia he has been seen as Merlvie in "Madame X," Edward in "The Little Millionaire"; appeared for three years with the Lafayette Colored Players in "The Three Musketeers"; in 1898 in "The Octoarons," and from 1900 to 1904 was with Williams and Walker. From 1912 to 1915 Mr. Robinson was an end man with the Richard and Pringle Minstrels, and with the George Minstrels with the "Georgia Minstrels" Just prior to his present role of Bulger in "Bottled in Bond" he acted with the Provincetown Players in "Abraham's Bosom." the Pulitzer prize play of last year. A natural "darkey" played naturally by a native of "Old Kaintuck" is one of the genuinely entertaining features in "Bottled in Bond." Miller and Lyles to Celebrate 25 Years Together Surrounded by their entire company and a host of friends, Miller and Lyles will celebrate their twenty-fifth anniversary as a team on the night of April 14 at Manhattan's Fashion Institute, a comedianary arts center for congratulations they have certainly met with a great deal of success during the years they have been appearing together. As a vaudeville team they have won unusual recognition on the biggest time in the country and as creativeness other shows during the passing of the years, they have done much to keep the ball rolling to the benefit of the colored theatrical world.

In "Rose-Marie," the screen version of the famous musical play presented two seasons ago by Arthur Hammerstein, and which has just been produced on the screen by Lucien Hubbard, Miss Crawford wears rough brown khaki skirts, heavy dark blue blouses and Indian moccasins throughout almost the entire length of the picture. Though she pleaded with society girl Amelia Hilbrich "Twelve Miles Out," she wore but one dress throughout the entire picture. In "Paris," she was an Apache girl and wore plain costumes, while in "The Understanding Heart" she dressed as a forest lookout in the timber country. "Spring Fever" and West Point" are about the only two pictures in which Miss Crawford has had a chance to show how well she can wear smart clothes. Her normal wardrobe is large and her frocks are of the smartest. She favors the very tailored styles for sports and street wear and the very feminine, boutant types for evening. FLETCHER HENDERSON AT THE LAFAYETTE During the week beginning April 16 Fletcher Henderson and his famous band will be seen at the Lafayette Theatre in a musical comedy revue entitled "Jazz Fantasy."

WARREN. Garland Anderson's play, "Appearances," as presented at the Community Theatre, justified his faith and proved his philosophy in its mere production, and further than that won success from the ditchingual audience with the ditchingual audience, official San Francisco and club women were largely represented. There was much enthusiasm and many flowers for the women of the cast, and calls for the author after the second act. He preferred to wait until the end of the play, Jack Brehany, who is managing the production, said in the crowd, and I could not wait to hear him. The play has been considerably changed since Anderson wrote it about four years ago, its plot given a more melodramatic turn with a heavy villain contriving the scheme which was to wreck the life of Carl Sanderson, the Negro bellboy of the Mount Shasta Hotel. Made More Workable. The play makes it a more workable piece of theatrical property, but the loss of its spiritual quality is to be deplored. However, "Appearances" is an entertaining melodrama, honestly written and somewhat naive both in its comedy and its drama, and certainly a wonderful piece of work for the untutored Negro boy to write unadied. I believe some of the revisions were made by Edward, Locke, author of The Old Play, that play was done in New York, but my memory of reading the play is that it was stronger without these evidences of a technique imposed upon the older structure of the piece.

In the town of Bristol with contours and really funny sketches, 'Blackbirds' has a humor all its own. As the title implies, colored artists compose the cast, which is another way of saying that the most is made of the music in the revue. The principal part of the work done is the original production of the Blackbirds has been undertaken very competently by Miss Eva Sherman and Miss Nitu Ward. The former is a vivacious souprot and dancer and the latter adds to a charming presence a beautifully mellow and melodious voice which is heard to particularly good effect in the first scene. Mr. Eddie Hunter (author of the sketches) is the leading humorist. Made up in minelist manner and using the curiously bubbling style of articulation adopted by that fraternity, he is irresistibly droll. He has a pet exclamation — nothing more ambitious than Good grubbies! He sucks it is the subject of manhunting the throw in it is work expressively does his face work he says it, that it evokes as many laughs as do the brightest wittyisms in the revue. There is not a moment when 'Eddie' is not richly comic. Even when, seated at the plano, he plays the accompaniment to 'The Humming Bird Blues', he produces ripples of laughter by his irresponsible interjections. For the rest he is just hilariously amusing, and he is haunted by the hunted house, when he encounters a ghost. First he expresses his astonishment by a few kisses, and then, as the full horror of the situation bursts upon him, he sounds rooted to the spot, giving vent to Eddie Hunter THE MUSICIAN EDDIE HUNTER in the Above Makeup Has Taken London by Storm, as Featured Comedian in "Black-birds." his feelings by a series of throat-cracking mouths, opening his cavernous mouth until his face all but disappears. "Not a whit less funny is his clever nonsense in the convict scene, where he gives the warden a night shift advice on how to run a prison. Never was his 'Good gracious' used with other effect man in this scene, which one long laugh from beginning to end." "Good humor is also provided by Messrs. Lewis Earle, Norman Astwood and Eva Sherman in the scene entitled 'George Washington's Boom.' Here it is supposed that something falls down every time anyone inside it tells a lie. One person between them by this means indoors several times to fall from the walls, but it means for the host to enter and toll a lie that brings the walls tumbling down! "The principal male dancer is Mr. Johnny Nit, billed as the world's greatest tap dancer," and, indeed, his performance is little short of wonderful. The quickness of his tines baffles the eye at all points, and he complements all his wonderful dancing turns with apparent ease and wearing the broadest of broad smiles. Mr. Lee Walker is another accomplished dancer. The members of the Cresole Beauty Chorus dance well and wear their simpler dresses with such good effect that one is inclined to regret change, during one scene, into exuberant dorsal dresses of a blind that provoke sniggers rather than laughs."

News of Our Entertainers in Europe The Amsterdam News Is the Only Publication of Its Kind That Offers This Feature to the Thousands of Its Readers in This Country By Our European Correspondents _____ ! News of London Writing to the British Metronome in answer to an article by one Mr. Senior decrying dance music as furnished by the Negro in Europe, Richard Wynfield, a prominent English gentleman, had the following to say: "Now for Mr. Senior who wrote in the December, 1927, issue, it seems necessary to remind him that of a thing is no worse against its own nature. He appears to think it is. Because some people are dance mad and think of nothing else, he calls dance music a 'heathenish pastime' of migratory origin. It is time it was realized that all this talk about Negro music—even in the mouths of moralists, as unfortunately it sometimes is—is fundamentally an appeal to race prejudice. The argument really implies that because much modern dance music comes from American and because it is composed of Negroes, it must be bad, and that the idea of the brotherhood of man can't really be applied to them." "This attitude will not do nowadays. It will not even enlighten, much less Christian. "The same despised Negroes produced the Negro spirituals' that are sung in the Wigmore Hall and the drawing-rooms of the elite, and the larger expressive intense spiritual fervor, why may he not express the lighter side in dance music? And why should we embrace one and shun the other? "On this aspect of the matter, perhaps I may quote Mr. Arthur Bliss, one of our most distinguished British composers. 'It is a element of the imagination, and the imagination, and the imagination, and the imagination over the world with a band in one hand and a saxophone in the other disintegrating the British Empire.' "So many critics of modern dance music want to throw away the baby with the bath water. Because some people dance too much, or because some dance music is sometimes badly played, or played too much, or because all dance music is not equally good—because of these things they lose their heads and condemn it utterly, root and branch, the good with the bad." "What an intelligent thing to do!" CLEF CLUB TO GIVE ANNUAL RECEPTION The Cief Club will hold forth Easter Monday night at their annual reception at Manhattan Casino.

The career of "Charley" Baker, Savannah colored man who was led by Fate to the highest pinnacle as an enthriner in Montmartre, only to be dropped with equal sadness by the fickle jade to the obscurity of a post as doorman, was ended late Thursday night in the American Hospital here. "Charley," as he was known in other days by the highest figures in the jazz scene, of tourists for whom he opened taxi doors at the United States Lines office here, died of an infection of the leg which caused two amputations. He was 65 years old. Baker brought his own jazz band to Paris 25 years ago. The then little known music from the South Side slowly gave polarity in Paris the "Charley" did. He has played in most of the best known cabarats in Montmartre. He was stricken with paralysis, which first affected his face, during the war. This for "Charley" was the beginning of the long road down hill. The money which had seemed so easy to make gave out. In 1921, somewhat recovered in health, but still unable to resume his old singing and dancing and banjo-playing stride, he took the post as doorman at the United States Lines office until December he went to the Army. can Hospital here. The paralysis had returned, and it soon paralyzed his body entirely from the hips down. Then the infection set in on the leg. It was amputated below the knee. The operation failed to check the infection. "I know you didn't cut enough of, Doctah," he told one of the most famous surgeons of France. "Now you'll just have to cut off anotha piece." "The othah piece" was cut off two weeks ago, and he never recovered from the effects of the operation. Fellow employees will pay for his funeral. He lived in a small room over a café at Sartville. Charley, along with his "Rag-time Band," introduced the old song "Allegro at the Anglige Band" to Parla, playing at L'Abbaye. Place Pigalle. One night Grand Duke Alexander of Russia entered. "That song was composed specially for you, Duke," Charley told him—and the story is that the Grand Duke responded with a 1,000 franc tin. It is known that romance came into Charley's life years ago, and he is said to have married a French girl. Nothing has been heard of his wife, however, since he became doorman.

Apt. 14 Bradhurst 3573 Walter Robinson in Broadway Play Boston Bans Belasco Play Boston Bans Belasco Play Puritan Mayor of Massachusetts Stops Showing of "Lulu Belle" By MONROE MASON. Boston's theatrical enthusiasts were surprised when banning of David Belasco's "Lulu Belle," scheduled to appear early in April at the Colonial Theatre, was intimated last week. Advance notice and Monday's final decision were strangely similar in tone, although couched in different language. "Lulu Belle" during its dramatic existence has never been under a ban before. Chicago, New York, Pittsburgh and other large cities have viewed this extravagane Belasco production without the least indication that it was other than art and drama without salacious quality. Observers who read the announcement are unanimous in agreeing that Mayor Nichols censored Behaco's production in advance of publication, ignoring the precedents of formal administrations. The obnoxious "Birth of a Nation" procedure was even overruled.

It is rumored that a test case may be made and the decision reversed under a ruling which permitted the birth of a theatre to show at the Traverse Theatre many years ago under the Curley regime. The Nichols decision in banning "Lulu Belle," according to those who have studied the situation carefully, is a drastic ruling and unwarranted. Its political effect will be far reaching, as Mayor Nichols has not made many friends in banning the show, especially colored people, who were eager to see a former lieutenant of the Julia Lewis Themes, a member of the cast in the Belasco production. It is believed, as far as Mayor Nichols and the censor board is concerned, that their action in the matter is final. DELLA M.

EDITORIAL PAGE ELEVEN Palm Sunday and Easter at Nazarene The celebration of the first Palm Sunday in the new location of the Nazarene Congregational Church proved a notable success. Early in the morning the crowd began in the morning and soon the suspicious auditorium was filled. Mrs. Jessica Taylor at the great organ filled the church with wonderful strains of music, backed by the great choir, which was at its host, with Mrs. Mabel Herken as soloist. Dr. H. H. Proctor's morning message was the climax of a series of sermons on "The Land, the Book, and the Master in Bethlehem, Nazareth the Jordan and the Desert, he came appropriately on Palm Sunday to the triumph of Jesus in Jerusalem and the world. He showed how through faith in people the Nazarene turned bitterness into sweetness; through faith in Himself he turned defeat into joy. He told him he changed death into life. At the evening hour another lady stood audience gathered to hear the pastor's closing message from the series of sermons from the Book, on John's immortal vision of the river of God, flashing with light quivering with life and moving with love, he made a tender gift to his mother, in life, bethe in it and lily on the banks of the river, and to ever keep a little boat ready to embark on that stream, assuring them that under the father's care they could move beyond His love and power. Ten teams of two each are working the community this week.

Fully 2,500 frenzied fans who jammed every available bit of space in the Casino saw their idol defeated by the famous Celtics, 37 to 28. Play started amid a tenseness that was evidenced by all present, and it was not long before Holman scored the first point of the game by making good a foul try. This seemed to wake the Renaissance up, and Mayers sent the fans wild when he scored the first field goal for the Renaissance, which was quickly followed by Capt. Slocum with another two-timer, and the colored champs appeared dangerous. Dehnert of the Celtics came back with two successful free tries for Celtics' third point, but Ricks and Saunders both caged baskets that gave the Renaissance an 8 to 3 lead. Another basket by Ricks and a foul by Saunders made the count 11 to 3 with 10 minutes of the game used up. During this time the famous Celtics could not penetrate the impregnable five-man defense of the Renaissance team, and though the Rens were not showing their snappy, lightning passes, they were holding the world's baskets in check. Prejudice Fighting vs. Prize Fighting EVER since Godfrey Hekel that Spanland in Los Angeles, there has been a sweeping storm of sentiment against prize fighting. We, too, are opposed to the savage and commercialized sport, but we were opposed to it before Godfrey fought the Basque, and we would have been opposed to it even if the white man had won. Are all of those women's clubs, preachers, and the Los Angeles Examiner sure that they would have been equally opposed if the white man had won? The Examiner, at least, answers for itself; in an editorial following (not preceding!) the fight, the Examiner says: "Negroes fighting-white men is a bad thing." Get that? The Examiner does not say that white men fighting Negroes is a bad thing. If, when white men fight them, the Negroes would either run or stand still and take the beating, perhaps the Examiner would think it not quite so "bad" a thing after all. Notice carefully; the Examiner does not even say: "It is a bad thing for a Negro and a white man to fight each other." Now, the "women's clubs" are not quite so frank (or so hidecrest) as the Examiner: they profess to be opposed to "brutal prize fighting," only they slipped on the dates—they should have expressed their opposition the week before the fight took place, not the week after. Darn poor chance to stop the fight after it was over. Paulino's face might have been saved an awful beating up if those women had acted in time. Just the proverbial feminine habit of being a little late, perhaps. A suggestion to the Examiner and the others: Perhaps the best way to wake up prize fighting, after all, would be to let "Jawgrey" Godfrey meet, even then, even Tunney; for if he should Hek Tunney, Mississippi, South Carolina, the editor of the Examiner, would be willing to raise a regiment of marines to Jack Johnson, when his big black flats flattened Jim Jeffries, on no very near to killing prize boxing. Perhaps if you turn Godfrey loose on Tunney he'll finish the boasty game. TWELVE Best Sport in Greater New World's Basketball Renaissance in H Teams Will Meet Again Next Renaissance Won in Fight Excited Over Co (By FR) The World's Champion Origins Casino Sunday night to tackle Bob Colored Champions, with blood in the came with the scals of the colored cats. Fully 2,500 frenzied fans who in the Casino saw their idol defeat Play started amid a tenseness that was not long before Holman scored in good foul try. This seemed to wake the Renais wild when he scored the first field quickly followed by Capt. Siocum who champs appeared dangerous. Dehner successful free tries for Celtics' third caged baskets that gave the Renais by Ricks and a foul by Saunders made the game used up. During this time the famous pregnable five-man defense of the Rens were not showing their snappy the world's champs in check. Dehnert again caged two fouls, but Saunders and Siocum each got a couple of two timers, and the score stood 15 to 5 for the Rams. Celtics then made their first hatch basketball start, steady, smart basketball started, with the Renaissance lead point by point. Dehnert and Holman both got field goals by beautiful cutting, and followed up with fowls, and the score was 15 to 11. Dehnert again made two more fouls, and Holman one, but in the meantime Ricks had made his third basket and a toulou the first half with the score 18 to 14 in favor of the Renaissance. At the start of the closing chapter of the game the Celtics cut loose, and with Barry, Lopclick and Dehnert leading the attack, they steadily pulled up alongside of the Renaissance, 18 to 17. Ricks扣断, met the challenge with a TikTok making the difference but the Celtics were in no mood to be stopped, and soon drew away to a lead that was never headed. "Fat" Jenkins' bad ankle went back on him at this point, and Saitch replaced him. "Fat" did yeoman service while on the firing line, not in offense, but his great deal of defense, the dangerous Davy Banks, leading the scorpion to the Celtis League and star forward of the 50 minutes that he (Jenkins) was in the game. Saitch continued where "Fat" left off, and Davy was out from making a field goal with his team-mates tried their best to help him continue during the last for minutes. Both teams scored 10 goals aplce, but the Celtics good with 17 out of 29 free while the Renaissance got 8 of 15. Ricks, with five field hits, lick fouls, led the Rens as a scoring team, and behemut, with this field goals and seven fouls, led his team.

At half time, the score was 20 to 2 in favor of the winners. At the end of 40 minutes' play both teams were tied 42 all. "Chink" Lind, who referred, started off very well, but at the close game it was easy to see that the Buffaloes did not have a chance to win.

It is not only adjacent to the Palmyra Ferry, but proximity to Holmesburgh and Frankfort, after opening at Hilldale Park, and the park at 48th and Spruce streets, Philadelphia. Hilldale will arrange a Friday twilight schedule for the Dissoton Park by opening up with such teams as Harrowgate, Kensington Congregational, Corley C. C. and Camden. The strongest team in the park will be scheduled in Hilldale's three parks. Babe Morris of Richmond, Va., and the Magnus Club of said city are arranging the southern trip. Benny Hall Will Tackle Zulu Kid Next Week Benny Hall will crawl through the ropes on Friday night. April 13 to face the popular Zulu Kid in the armored bar at the 100th Regiment Battalion. Behind him, at 13th is his lucky day and we believe it after looking over his record. This fight was to have taken place some months ago, but the Zulu was excused because of sickness. It will be remembered that this paper told the boy submitting for the Kid. From the splendid account he has already given himself in Brooklyn, Benny Hall enjoys a popularity in the town across the bridge which will bring out the fans in large numbers. The Zulu Kid is one of the toughest little boys in the game and if Benny wins it will mean more shots for him in the old town within a short time.

McCOOL. In one of the greatest middle-weight fights ever staged on the Pacific Coast, and perhaps the shortest, George Dickon, 18-year-old contender for Mickey Walker’s championship, knocked out. Johnny O’Reilly, 19-year-old last guard of Oakland, Cal., last night at the armory in the first round of a knuckle fray that was billed for ten. When the bell sounded Dixon leaped across the arena with wild ferocity and without a moment’s parry, whipped a hard right to his knee. Dickon, the staggered burns, who gave ground and circled about, sticking a straight left in Dixon’s face. The Portland juggernaut paid no more heed to the smarting, stinging labs to his face and head than if a man had been stabbed end. He bored in savely, and after half a minute snugged another hard right to the jaw and backed Burns against the ropes. Burns side-s stepped and resumed his wheeling and resumed ring aim to the face and ripping in rights to the body, but Dixon continued his inexorable rush. He again held right to the jaw and reeling right to the jaw and Burns reeled once more to the ropes. Dixon Bores In Steadily. Dixon never stopped coming for an instant, but all of a sudden loose an avalanche of rights and lefts to the face, head and body. Burns, with his back braced against the ropes, forgot his boxing caution and elected to trade blows. For 11 seconds the two game fighters shot a barrage of leather at each other with the superior eight of Dixon begin to tell Burns, his instinct nevertheless kept his fists moving, but soon he was hitting the young demon in front of him only with open gloves. Another murderous spurt by Dixon and half a dozen right and left hooks caught the courageous Oaklander and rocked his head from side to side for a few seconds. His eyes lost all allusion and the fell heavily sideways on his back, covering his on his back unconscious to be counted out. He was still out for many seconds after he was taken to his corner. The fight was the most spectacular main event seen in Portland for years. The quick and decisive victory of Dixon marks him as a mid- dlewweight of the first rank, one who will give anybody in his class a tough argument. Had Dixon fought with the same confidence he displayed, Dave Anderson would be pitted against Dave Shade and Joe Anderson here it is now considered extremely doubtful if either of those top-notchers would have been returned victorious, for neither hit Anderson nor Dave Shade took everything Burns had and smashed through to an overwhelming triumph. Sunny Jim Made Benny Ross Look Very Bad Walk Miller has been telling the country that he believes he has the successor to Tiger Flowers in the person of Sunny Jim. Williams, whom he brought directly under his wing recently with the idea of giving his personal attention to develop Williams. From the results of the Williams right at the front, Son Square Garden is at night. Miller is entitled to use the old "Told You So" slogan for the time being. Ross and Williams appeared in the semi-final to the Lomski-Sekyra fight. From the first tap of the gong until the final tap in the eighth round Williams hit the Buffalo boy with everything but the bucket. It was a rout. If ever there was one, and the customers were sadly crest: SAILOR DARDEN BADLY BEATEN SAILOR DARDEN BADLY BEATEN Konchina Too Much for Brave Former Colored Sailor Frank Konchina, of Fort Hamilton, handed Sailor Darden a sound beating by Reforee Chuck Oldis stopped the scrap in two minutes and secured the fourth frame. The mill was supposed to round and featured the card at Mitchel Field last Wednesday night. Konchina tore into Darden at the start and had the New York boy drown in the water and counted. In every case it was a hard right that dropped Darden who went down once in each of the second, third and fourth frames. Darden might have continued but he was too tired to be lashed. Darden scaled 156 pounds with Konchina six pounds heavier. Carly Rouse, of Glondale, and Jimmy Cox, of Richmond Hill, put up a fast eight-round battle in the summer, with Rouse getting the ball, and Cox getting the attention to defense, but each just went out shrugged away for dear life. Cox weighed 150; Rouse, 146. Walter Hander, of Brooklyn, 144 pounds, outboxed Sailor Snitka, of St. Augustine, 138 pounds, in a six-round, outboxed ball over the ring in the early stages of the mill, but found it almost impossible to land. Handle staring a clever battle. In the last few pounds handle hit Snitka consistently while he too tired to continue his wild tactics. In the second six-rounder Paul Canamare, of Codarhurst, outscored Ray Cummings, of Staten Island, in a fast bout. Canamare weighed 132 pounds. Cummings four pounds loss in the first round, his result was in a six-round draw between Porter, Tenn., and San Francisco of New York, 112, and Joe Nardo, of Growlw Hill Village, 119.

Ross was totally outclassed and there wasn't the least doubt of who won the fight at the competition. On his showing Friday night he beat him up on some other good shots, especially as Miller stands in good at the Garden. Splendid Brand of Basketball Being Put Forth by Concord Baptist Team With Sandy Herndon flashing a/sensational brand of basketball, the Concord Baptist quintet got away to its twenty-second victory in the Brooklyn Sunday School Basketball League last week by defeating the Mohawks of the Ocean Parkway M. E. Church of Flatbush by the score of 32-27 in the semi-final game of the elimination post-season series for the Sunday School championship of Brooklyn and Manhattan. Prior to this defeat the Mohawks had gone through their league schedule without losing a game, winning twenty straight and the pennant of Class C of the Unlimited Weight Division. Concord Baptist entered the Brooklyn Sunday School Basketball League for the first time last fall and their record of winning every game of their league schedule and also the first of their post-season titles is an accomplishment seldom, if ever, attained in the fifteen-year existence of the organization. Concord Baptist took the lead at the start of the game when Thompson made good on a free shot. The Mohawks came right back with a score when Sid Hill sank a two-pointer, but Sandy Hernandez shoved Concord ahead by dropping a pair of doubles through the rim. Captain Hill of the Mohawks failed to make good when fouled by Steven of the Mohawks and Thompson displayed that failure when shoved by Pope of the Mohawks. Sandy Hernandeh here flashed some snappy dribbling and netted two more tallies for Concord Baptist, making the score, 7-2, in favor of Concord. Captain Sid Hill then sank a long shot from midcourt for the Mohawks, but Thompson tallied a two-pointer for Concord right after and kaline added another point on a penalty shot. Two foul shots by Rapunzi and a field goal by Jack McGee in the first lead by Concord Baptist in the lead, 12-11. Both teams put up a fast game, but the Mohawks' lucky long shots and their accuracy from the free throw line kept them close to Concord. Concord Baptist outscored the Mohawks from the floor, with five hits in four, but the Mohawks tallied five hits throws to two by Concord Baptist. In the second half the Concord Baptist basketball started off with a rush. Thompson and Harrison dropped in field goals, and after Pope missed a foul shot when Bartlett beat the ball on the tapoff Sandy Harrison posted one of his famous side and netting the ball on the the. The Mohawks worked the ball down the court and on a followup shot, after Pope had missed, Jaffa sunk a two-pointer for their first score of the second session. Bartlett came right back with a basket for Concord and Thompson followed it up with the most sensational field goals of the game, which came from past midcourt. Sandy Harrison then added two more points for Concord, but missed a foul throw. Sid Hill dropped in a long shot for the Mohawks, but when Haquist fouled Thompson under his own basket he missed both shots. Captain Hill then tallied a two-pointer from the Mohawks and Carl Haquist dribbed the ball to the court and shot a field goal for the Mohawks, making the score 24-19 in Concord's favor. good his two free throws when faced by Raffa, Captain Smith of Concord Baptist dribbed in from the side of the court and sunk a fast one. With the game rapidly drawing on, Raffa the Mohawks responded to the only win he ever saw, as Concord was playing a tight game and following the ball closely, and long shots by Pope and Raffa brought the count up to 26-22, with Concord Baptist still leading Concord Baptist's next play was one of the fastest they used all evening, with Sandy Herford and Captain Smith out to the aid and, taking a lightning pass on Sandy Herford, dropped the ball through the rim.

In his keeping are the secrets of the private lives of many modern Helens of Troy; the skeleton of the physical, social, moral and business lives of clergymen, bankers, business men, social leaders, society folk, washer-women, chorus girls, elevator runners and longshoremen. They all tell him their life story and show him their mental and physical scars. Therefore, as he goes through life and comes in daily contact with his patients in the community, he has many reactions to overcome. He needs to exercise discretion, tact, Herculean cheerfulness and courage. Many times it is indeed very hard for him to decide quickly just what to do in order to be able to protect the health, not only of one, but sometimes of many other people. A doctor is supposed to keep all secrets. I know of a case, however, where a physician of high standing was watching the bathers in a public bathing pool. Denyly he saw a woman whom he had examined and created for a syphilitic sore about to dive into the pool. Can you imagine the mental anguish and reaction this gave the physician? It was just the same reaction as if you found yourself sleeping in bed with a leaper. Here was a man, the car of syphilitic germs, about to swim in close contact with healthy people and who would, by so doing,侵吞 those swimming in the water with him. Did the physician turn his back and leave the place? Would you cry, bond, "Fire! Fire!" if you suddenly discovered a building? Doctors are human, and the instinct to protect the many is there, even when it conflicts with medical ethics and professional secrecy. The physician immediately advised his patient to stay out of the pool, but the young man refused on the grounds that his friends, who were looking on, would know he had some infectious or contagious disease. There was nothing left for the physician to do but to report this young man to the proprietor and have him ex pelled from the nothing pool. Was the physician right or wrong? I know of another case in which a physician was attending a church on a Sunday morning. The minister invited his parishioners to come up to the communion rail and parakee of the holy communion. Hundreds of people were going up, among whom the physi- The Black M The Black Man in Brazil By CLARA BEASLEY REYNOLDS LOS ANGELES ONLY a short time ago I had the pleasure of visit.

ONLY a short time ago I had the pleasure of visiting Brazil. I sailed from Brooklyn Harbor on the S.S. Caxias, a Brazilian ship, and after three weeks on the water and three stopovers I landed in Rio de Janeiro. The trip can be made in eleven days, provided no stopovers are made. Rio, the capital, consists of lovely parks, bright and varicolored houses, ranging from small three-room bungalows to great mansions. The city is sanitary and modern in every way. The main thoroughfare or street corresponds to Fifth avenue in New York City, except that it isn't so large. You see the elite promenading there in the afternoons or early evening, and riding about in French, English and up-to-date American cars. A stroll on Avenda Rio Branco reminds one of a Sunday afternoon on the fashionable Seventh avenue in New York City. You see many brown and dark-hued ladies dressed in the very latest Paris fashions and displaying the famous Brazilian diamond and toki with a "feeling." Brazil is the land of "Golden Opportunity," as far as the black man is concerned. The population consists of a mixture of Negro, Indian and Caucasian blood. Here no color line abounds. Whatever you see a white or near white doing, you see the black man doing the same. It is common to see a Negro operating at the street car and a white one in the rear. In all lines they work side by side, and in harmony. Intermarriage is a common thing. Brazil is taking her place as the leading agricultural country of the world. She stands first in the exportation of rubber and coffee. Fruits, oocen, rice, corn, yema nut, tobacco, cotton and hemp are grown in abundance. The mineral wealth is untold. The mild winters and delightful climate make this ideal place to live. Rico has a harbor in the town, in short, Rico is unique, with impressive mountain scenery abounding. The native language is Portuguese. There are thousands of German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Japanese migrating to this land of sunshine and promise. But why not more colored Americans? The custom officers who came aboard our ship before we landed were men of color, and I mean it was a pleasure to see these black men, dressed in immaculate uniforms, trimmed with gold braid, discharging their duties efficiently and strutting about the grace of Napoleon. Most of the high officials are of color, should visit this wonderful land, where freedom and liberty abound for all—rich is interest and charm for those who care for what it has to give. clan saw many of his patients whom he was treating for syphilis, tuberculosis and pyrexia. The minister was holding out a common communion cup and was enticing his flock to sip of its contents. This is one concrete example where science and religion clashed in the mind of this physician. He felt like standing and crying out aloud, "Unclean! Unclean" as the leaper of old. The physician some days after spoke to the minister and rlied to explain the danger of contagion in this communion custom. The minister became indignant and the physician has lost a ministerial friend. A prominent physician in a nearby city was consulted by a successful business man. His disease proved to be syphilis. The wife of the patient was a cousin of the physician. Should the wife know of the disease with which her husband was suffering? She needed protection for her marital situation — delicate situation which the physician had to face. Was he justified in warning the wife to refrain from marital intercourse? These are only a few isolated cases of the problems which every physician must solve. They are personal problems, for which he must answer the question, "Am I my brother's keeper?" In answering, he has to use that creation and course. Sometimes he is blinded; sometimes he is praised. The public and the law are the two masters which the physician has to face. Often he needs inexhaustible courage to face them. Van in Brazil ALEY REYNOLDS LOS ANGELES. d the pleasure of visiting Brayn Harbor on the S.S.

Quarrels and disputes with those who could be of much aid are indicated for the people of today. Those who are inclined to be forceful and violent in opinion will regret their actions. Accidents are indicated, unless care is used. Heavy debts or liabilities will cause much cost. April 5 promises a birthyear full of romance, and dreams of financial conquests, and if the dreamers know how to be practical the dreams will come true. Speculation is adverse. Patience and good judgment of values will bring success. An unusually eventful birthyear comes to those of April 6. The health and personal safety should be guarded. Jupiter promises some gain and happiness for those who can give stetty application to the work at hand and use clear thinking and speech. April 7 begins a birthyear that inclines to pleasures and the lighter side of life, and yet those who can think clearly and persevere at their chosen tasks will gain much. Letters and romance bring some happiness. Those who follow mental vocations should take advantage of the year to accomplish some of their alms. April 8 is more strongly aspected by romance and letters, but there is an adverse aspect to romance that indicates the need of discretion. Those who wish to inclination would be able to gain something worthwhile in the birthyear. There is an indication of some recognition or advance for those connected with the church, law or government. Health and personal safety should be guarded. Quarrels will only cause pain. April 9 begins a birthyear that NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4, 1928 Writer Compares Music, Dances, Clothes and Clientele PARIS now has a miniature Harlem and all within the space of three months. It is the Bal Negre on the Rue Blomet. Prior to this the ballroom had a rather small clientele. One could see what is rare in Paris, a dance hall where nearly all the couples on the floor were Negroes. A mixed couple, white man dancing with colored woman, or the opposite, was rare. Then two of the leading newspapers suddenly discovered the place and carried long articles about it, with the result that the white clientele has grown to such proportions that the place is overcrowded now. Just such a thing happened some years ago in Chicago. A few white people had been in the habit of visiting the cabarets on the South Side. Then one day a paper now defunct—the Herald—in its vice crusade announced that white people were attending Negro cabarets, and that there was no color line. The result was that white people simply poured into these places, making a fortune for their owners Harlem and other Negro neighborhoods in the North and parts of the South have all had a similar experience. The simple fact is that in spite of what our American sociologists and legislators may say, the Negro will have, in no matter what part of the world, no easy task preserving his isolation when once the white people get on the road, he was brought from over 3,000 miles away, and were he taken "back" to Africa, it is safe to say that an equal number of boats would have to be provided for the white people who would want to go along. A singular fact about the Bal Negre, or rather the expected thing, one should say, is that several white Americans of both races will now be seen dancing with Negroes. The majority of the Negroes are very dark, and come from the French West Indies or parts of Africa. The visitor who speaks only English had better take his interpreter with him. And as to the racial composition of the tribe, the scientific evidence that there are only five varieties of the human race must have been buried in some hole at the time, will incline its people to haste, impulse and quarrels. All these attributes will only bring suffering. Saturn will slow up the impatient and make hasty effort useless. Travel is indicated. There may be a slight disagreement with emploier who does. However, this can be avoided with little effort, as the sun is approaching a very good aspect to the moon. April 10 promises some gain through the law, legal affairs and through long journeys. Many will fell inclined to spiritual development. Serious matters will require attention, especially matters concerning real estate and property, and those who can use good judgment can turn these events to advantage.

ROGERS for here there are at least twenty-five: among them are Chinese, Japanese, Egyptians, Russians, Hungarians, Germans. One is faced with the fact that the human race, if it is anything at all, is certainly mixed. Artists, writers, musicians and others come into the hope of discovering some new quality to put into their work. The music is somewhat different from that of the American jazz A. band. The saxophone and sharp striking of the cymbal are absent. This tempo is set by a shiny tin container filled with pebbles. This container resembles a cocktail shaker pierced with many holes; the leader shakes it in a manner as if he were continually throwing it away from him. As to the dancing, that is of the Negroes, it is smoother and more rhythmic than the guiter duet from one sees in the United States, or even in the other French dance halls, or in England or Germany. It is predominantly French West Indian and unlike the dances of those lands in which the whites predominate. As to the dresses of the Negro women, they are also different. The gown, bright and multi-colored, reaches the heels, and the bandanna, also bright-colored, is worn with two points sliding straight like the horns of a snail. Picturesque, the present mode, and giving the body less the air of being on parade. The following is a recent account of the Bal Negre appearing in L'Intransigent, one of the leading dailies.

In fact, the fixtures, including the vault, were placed in a building to be used for the purpose. Unfortunately the project failed and its collapse left a pall of pessimism over that part of the community interested in banking. Since the above event, much has been said concerning a bank owned and operated by Negroes; however, nothing tangible has resulted. Moreover, the need for a bank has become greatly intensified and apparent, and such need is reflected in the disorganized location of the civic building in Harlem. Two schools have grown up in reference to banking in this community; one that a commer- Our Press After Lea (Continued) After his retirement in 1838 posts, one as recent of the Unit delegate to the Virginia constitution the third President to die on July 11.

He had a majority of the vote on eight ballots, but seeing the impossibility of marshalling the necessary two-thirds, he withdrew from the contest. In 1848 he was the Presidential nominee of the Free Sollers, but he failed to get a single electoral vote. He died in 1862 at the age of 86. (To be continued next week.) - J. A.

Every one is fittingly dressed and the gentlemen are asked not to dance with other gentlemen. A colossal Negro, his head bound with a red boa, and eyes which actually sing, sees that order is preserved. "The white-haired waiter, moving with hesitating steps, throws rather scandalous glances on the men, his hatches. He means, he means, he means (read: whites) are about to spoil everything, that the Negro dance hall is going to lose its originality, that soon one will be able to order cocktails. Already there is a check-room. But in the room adjoining, which is almost dark, one can see the players in the billiard hall quietly enjoying their game, a tobacco counter, and the manager of the saloon in his shirt-sleeve. The room is not yet the Bat Negro in capital letters, in spite of the many automobiles in front. And the blacks come there in a crowd, paying hardly attention to the whites, not even to the white Americans who are there, their faces blackened with burnt cork. The Negroes shake hands with one another; they smile, showing white teeth. "We went to see some 'savages.' We see instead fine women, majestic and gay; young girls with magnificent smiles, their lips trembling with naive enthusiasm; the men, holding them with their large brown hands, leading them without a single mistlepad, eyes cumming with eyes.

The stand adhered to by the opponents of a commercial banking enterprise carries a great deal of weight, for the majority of Negro incomes here are not derived through methods which would cause them to be customers or depositors to a commercial bank in the pure banking sense; thereby negating any benefits or profits which might accrue to either customer or broker.

Finds Legal, Genuine Drinks; Reformers Are Missing imagine himself in a new paradise, beyond good and evil, a paradise where one might kiss openly, and at the same time kiss in all innocence. "We, the white people, look at it with a foolish smile, and somewhat embarrassed. But the contagion is so strong that to be converted; little by little we begin to laugh without knowing it ourselves, to chat and to enjoy ourselves at this strange carnival. "No jazz, all the musicians. A West Indian orchestra, with boxes filled with pebbles and little bells of the Alpine pastures. The painter, Ronchl, just returned from New York, has come to see the bad and cryful all brothers of the sheiks of Hamm, remains astonished. Where is the sex dancing of the American Negro sheik? "Here is a music vibrant and gay, songs which all scan with a smiling vigor; unexpected, fraternal humor. Blacks from the West Indies and Africa. They come here to show that there are still evenings of pleasure worthy of the trouble still to be found in Philadelphia. They are the black "mammy" dressed in dozen different colors and incapable of hiding her joy; the soldier with large ears, hindered by his uniform; the doctor with his eyeglasses and smile; the little masked women everywhere laughing mockingly, and the dignified Negro dame, who neither speaks nor laughs. "They are not related and one would believe them a single family. They give to us, white people, a fine lesson of order and innocence. Those of us who dance among them and with them notice the difference. Little be it learn that we have been deceived in our preconceptions, and finish by not regretting not having seen a fight with knives, or a rape. "One closes at midnight. Prizes are distributed to the finest costumes. The white women who have worn tricornes of velvet find they must give way before the colored women. But as they have been well-behaved they are rewarded with several prizes and much laughter." Rue Blomet has been compared with Harlem, but in two essentials it will be found to be different: the drinks served are legal and genuine, and there will be no reformers. At least, no reformer yet to preach of the alleged dangers of humanity, regardless of color, getting together to enjoy itself. made unwise loans to those who were not in the kind of business which warranted such loans by a commercial bank. In time such institutions were bound to fail. The proponents of a savings bank or trust company argue that such could not have been the case if those same banks had been savings banks or trust companies. The above is no doubt true. But the adherents of the savings bank ideen apparently fail to fully appreciate the prime reason for a commercial bank. When a depositor puts money into a savings institution it represents a surplus — that part of his income which is the result of successful commercial operations and is not intended to be used for further undertakings of similar order. It represents the sum owed and is expected for day to day transactions, and is set aside to yield the going rate of interest. On the other hand, a commercial bank represents and is a medium of exchange as much so as a dollar bill, and its importance to any community is just as great as the circulating medium. Furthermore, there must be an extreme personal relationship between the commercial banker and his customers. This does not have to be the case with a savings bank. The head of a commercial institution must keep the pulse of the commercial structure of a community at the proper temperature. He must advise his customers why or why not he can or cannot make a loan—he must have imagination and an ability to give. Such a banker is an absolute necessity to a community and is an emergency of success. His success is reflected by that of the community and vice versa. In addition, the community cannot meet with the needed or possible degree of prosperity until a bank interested primarily in the progress and conditions in this community is organized. There are more than enough Negroes in Harlem to assure the success of a bank that will be more or less compelled to use and will use the first bank in this neighborhood which affords the proper kind of MAGAZINE PAGE The Easter Dinner THE Easter dinner is included among many programs for the Holy Week. Some have week-end guests, others have a family gathering at home after the Easter morning services. If the dinner is to be a formal one, the usual seasonal menu is adhered to, with the occasional touches of ceremony. Since it is a custom to send cards to friends at Easter time, one will not find it difficult to secure very pretty Easter cards that may be used as a greeting and invitation card combined. It is needless to say that place cards and novelties will compose of Bunny rabbits and Easter eggs. Flowers and all the symbols of spring are used for the formal decoration of the Easter dinner nest. At an Easter dinner more than any other the hostess should try to grange her plans so as to partake of the dinner with her guests, as well as to serve it. To her advantage, she can be served without destroying her pleasure of dining with her guests. If she has no assistants, her dinner service can be simplified and shortened by choosing dishes that do not require accessories. When planning the number of dishes to serve, the limit of one's equipment should be considered. To attempt to serve dishes that have accompanying condiments without sufficient equipment or without the assistance of a waitress not only delays the dinner, but is apt to cause eight people if dishes are chosen which need no supplements. Never attempt a new dish for company. Typical dinner-party dishes are invariably the temptation; and they are often the downfall of ambiguous ignorant. If you have an attractive recipe that you would like to serve at your Easter dinner, try it out at a previous dinner. The "dishing" is quite as important as the cooking; a smear or thumb-mark on the edge of a dish is a lot of a spot on the front of a dress! When setting the table for a formal dinner omit the pickle jar, cajun bottles, toothpacks and crackers, as they are not private house ornaments. Crackers are passed with oyster stew, soup and salad. Pickles, tomato condiments are never presented at table in a bottle, but are put in glass dishes with small serving spoons. service. Naturally, the people have a great deal to learn concerning the use of a bank and it is up to the banker to assist with their tutelage. Such is his duty. As for the possibilities of a bank's success in relation to the businesses in Harlem, there is no question. The nature of the businesses here are diversified enough and the community is complex enough to assure the proper kind of trade. Moreover, a bank which will give real service will not be a degree in Jewish bank but a degree for all; and from all it will draw its customers. Furthermore, such an institution properly handled will increase the interest of Negroes in general commercial pursuits through making loans, thus creating competition for other people who have honeycombed Harlem with all sorts of business. There must be a 'great number of Negroes who have the ambition and ability to enter many fields of business if they could only get the necessary credit. The proper way to obtain credit is through a comma. You must enter a comma to the public and make the soundness of the man and his business the sole reason for making or not making a loan. Conditions Reported Very Bad in Haiti Belhomme Auguste Nicoleau, a young Haitian, who studied for three years in France and who left Port au Prince on March 15, visited the offices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to tell of conditions in his country now governed by U. S. Marines. Mr. Nicoleau said that, when he left Haiti on March 15, two editors of a newspaper published at Cape Halten were still in jail, having been there for upwards, of two months because one of them had written an article offensive to an educational inspector. Seven persons had been imprisoned originally for the publication of the article. Mr. Nicoleau, but of these, all had been released save Clamart Ricourt and Descartes Albert, who were still in jail March 15. Mr. Nicoleau said further that economic conditions in Haiti were bad, that little sugar was being exported, and that, in the coffee and dyewood enterprises conducted by Americans, Haitians were given opportunity to own land. Mr. Nicoleau said public opinion in Haiti was especially stirred by the recent amendments to the Constitution, ratified at an election which he characterized as farcical, by which the judges formerly holding life tenure were made subject to removal. Mr. Nicoleau said that not alone laborers, also young Haitians were studied, were losing the country many of them going to Cuba, because there were no opportunities for them in their own land. Nothing is ever served from the jar or bottle it comes in, except certain kinds of cheese, Barley-Duc preserves (only sometimes) and wines. Pickles, jellies, jams and olives are all put into small glass dishes. Saucers for vegetables are contrary to all etiquette. The only extra plates ever permitted are the bread and butter plates, which are put on at breakfast, lunch and supper, above and to the left of the forks, but never at dinner. When clearing the table for dessert, the plates of whatever course preceding the dessert are removed, leaving the table platelets. Salt and pepper collars are some egg of the serving tray. Some eggs of the serving tray should be served at an Easter dinner. It may be served in regular fashionable order, or it may be placed on the table in some sort of Easter souvenir form. Sufficient time to wait for late guest is twenty minutes. To wait longer would be showing lack of consideration to many for the sake of one. When late a guest finally enters the dining room, she is seated and served with dinner from the beginning, unless she is considerate enough to say that she will begin with the course then being served. Games after dinner on Easter is inappropriate, since this is a special occasion for her. If the hostess wishes to detain her guests for an indefinite time after dinner, she may prepare an interesting but short Easter program. Otherwise, she may, give each guest an Easter illy and all may depart formally. Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN A Temperamental Sister. Dear Egypsy Ann: I'm sending you a copy of a letter that I got from a girl whom I've known for a long time. Now she puzzles me. What would you think if you got a letter like it? Another thing, this girl is very temperamental. She's sweet enough at times, but every once in a while she flares up and throws at me the first thing on which she can get her hands. Please advise me. Does she really love me? GUESSING. Here is the letter: Dear Him: We must never see each other again. It's all been a terrible mistake. I've never really loved you and when I say cruel things, that hurt you it's just like stabbing my own heart. Forget all about me and let our little romance goodie, Jim, Jim. EDNA. P. S.:—Meet me tonight at the same old place and same old time, as I must see you. E. Dear Guessing: Maybe its spring that's affecting her. It certainly does make some people act dizzy. Her letter sounds a bit as if she'd been reading some book or had seen a play and was trying to wax dramatic. You ask whether the young woman loves you. That's hard to say, but I believe she does and is trying to be romantic to see what end of an effect it will have on you. As for the letter, well, I'd just disregard it. I suppose you met her that evening. You didn't say Personally, I couldn't be bother with such eccentricity. I'd girl her the air and find myself level-headed girl. If you decide to put up with foolishness, her a good fr the truth she fires someth at you. Don't hit her, but let know that you could if you want to.

Additional Sport News ATLANTA UNIVERSITY DEFEATS CLARK In the opening baseball game of the season, Atlanta, University de- fected Clark University by a score of 5 to 2. Spruell was on the mound for Atlanta and Mays received. On the mound for Clark were Roberta and Tolos, who served O Neill and Matthews. Each team got five hits, but Spruell made Clark scatter her share, so that they were ineffective. Atlanta certainly looks good on the start. DILLARD STOPS JOSE LOMBARDO The Albert Athletic Association presented one of the most interesting contests that has been exhibited here by local fighters last week at the new Albert Auditorium. The contest was between Pedro Lombardo of Panama, brother of Jose Lombardo, lightweight of Panama, and K. O. Dillard, who won his last bouts by knockouts. He demonstrated his superiority by a technical bout scheduled to go eight. There was no time during the fight that Dillard did not have the best of Lombardo and could have knocked him out in the fourth round. As the challenger came with so great reputation Dillard was careful in the first four rounds to feel out his opponent, but in the fifth and sixth Lombardo was at his mercy and he finished him in the seventh, as Lombardo's seconds threw in the thwel. More Theatrical News CRUTCHERS POSTHUMOUS WORK. For the benefit of charities some society women have had the idea of organizing or a week a series of performances of "L'Ecole des Gigolos," an operetta by M. Pierre d'Arcangues, with music by M. Leon A Crutcher and Mario Bragliotti. And this musical fantasie is played solely by members of high Parisian society. The daughter of a rich old bourgeois, Caroline Trouffot, infatuated with modernism, is betrothed to Jean Dupain, a kind of "gigolo," whose unique object is comfort. A friend of Caroline's from childhood, Rose Laferlire, is deeply distressed at this marriage, and to hide her grief goes to Blirratz. There everybody meets again in order to form a team that consulates in smacking the patients while the moon is shining. And here Jean Dupain preceives that he loves Rose. In the last act, which takes place in the famous Restaurant of the Reserve, at Clouure, everything is arranged. The score by the colored man Crutcher, completed by the young pianist Mario Bragliotti, is charming in its ensemble. It is written for a jazz orchestra. It presents pretty melodies and displays brilliant rhythms by its rhythm and liberty. The final of each act was greatly applauded. Of the interpretation by young society women and girls and by amateur comedians there is nothing but praise to be said. All the players have the sacred fire and performed like real professionals. Mine, Robert Singer (Carolina) could be the best comedian in Mine. Jaques Lancek (Rose) sings with a pretty, well trained voice. The tenor, Guy Ferrant (Jean Dupain), has taste, but he had to struggle with hoursness. Baron Despain is a born comic actor. The chorus is well trained and the dances were regulated in a masterly manner. Jona Kane (Jane Kane) has the last act and a real opera dancer. In sum it is an interesting show and well designed to assist in the relief of those in need. A large audience at the Hippodrome on Monday night, March 5, welcomed the celebrated "Black Birds," and no proof was wanting of the popularity of the production. Quite apart from the show, the audience, though incidentally, many of its members are by no means so "black as they are painted," and, in some instances, would pass as Europeans—the show contains many novel features. True, here is room for even greater excitement, but the show lost in one or two scenes, but taken as a whole, the entertainment was quite refreshingly out of the ordinary. Undoubtedly, the dancing is most unusual, and, combined with lively music, proved an almost phenomenal and bewildering feature. There is plenty of good, wholesome fun in the show, and few minutes ever elapse without laughter being evoked. The costumes (Jacqueline) are original and striking, and the dark-skinned chorus works most effectively. Talent. There are some talented star performers, chief among whom must be mentioned Middle Hunter, a most amusing comedian, and also a musician of no mean merit. Johnny Nit, the world's greatest (tap, dancer), Nita Ward, Dixie Kane, Norman Arwood, Evan Shrimel and see Walter, all excellent in their martial-armer spheres, are also included in the cast. Auring the most amusing and original scenes may be mentioned a mystery play skit, in which the "mystery" remains unsolved. The "George Washington Room" scene was far and away the most original idea, and depicts what happens in the famous general's room, where, every time a lie is told, something drops to the ground. The room is speedily reduced to a wreck. "Sing Sing" a prison scene, was also an exceptionally amusing number. B 17 From the Southern Echo. "Brilliant dancing and capital comedy are outstanding features of the phenomenally successful London cabbies, Eddie Hunter, an artist and birdhunter, an international reputation, is the leading comedian and proved himself to last night's crowded houses in a past-master in laugh-raising. He scored all the way in a series of exceptionally well-done comedy cameos, notably in the Sing Sig Prison burlesque, 'Poor Old Joe' (a novel musical number) and 'Humming Bird Blues', a captivating song scene in which he had as partners the charming vocalist, Miss Anita Edwards, and versatile Norman Astwood, both of whom numbered in the other special himself as a tan dancer out of ordinary, and he was soon trotted dously popular with the audience. Williams and Taylor did a cross-talk act, 'All About Work', which was exceedingly successful. Miss Dixie Wood and the accomplished chorus did wonderfully clever things in song and dance scenes. Miss Eva Sherman, a comedienne with a polished style, scored particularly in the nent 'Mose on the phone.' All round, the cast is a first-class one. To prevent hunges from creaking, rub a little soap on the hinges or make a mixture of equal parts lard, black lead and soap and apply. Livingstone Meets Smith In Easter Monday Classic SALISBURY, N. C., March 30. On Easter Monday in Charlotte, S. C., Livingstone College meets J. C. Smith University in the annual Easter Monday classic of the entire South. This game has been played for the last twenty or twenty-two years the count is in games for entire series is just about the Each year the crowd gets bigger and bigger; last year at Wear field, where the game is regularly played each year, a crowd of 10,000 was out. Three years ago a pitcher's feud was begun between Yokeyou of Livingston and Hayes of Smith. So far, they have each won a classic; Hayes won in 1926, 8-3, while Yokeyou the 1927 classic by the close score of 2-1. This year both are intent upon settling the matter of superiority for all time to come, both twirlers are at the peak of their success, Hayes and Yokeyou are both exponents of the speed ball, but Yokeyou has the edge in his decisive change of pace. While Coach K. E. Clement (of Northwestern) is setting his Livingstone charges through hard-pressed in preparation for the "battle of the century," Conn Seales of Smith University is letting his boys on his bag of tricks that he is noted for. Both teams have beaten N. C. College of Durnum and Auburn Academy of Framington, N. C., by practically the same scores and if they conclusion can be drawn from that, it looks like a mighty hot time in Charlotte on Easter Monday. The coach's advance sale of tickets by the Smith university is seem as the ground rules will have to be made to accommodate the crowd reservations for seats have come in from as far as New York City, Richmond, Va.; Nashville, Tennessee; Atlanta, Ga., and various other points over the country. New Men in Lineup of Eastern Cuban Stars Several new men will grace the theep of the Eastern Cuban Stars, according to Manager-Owner Alessandro rompé, who made public his list of players today. His catchers are Veruandez and Perez. Perez played first base for Colonel Strothers's Hurrusburg Giants last season and he was rated the best initial sack guardian in the league during the season. A new pitcher, Ruita has been added to the already strong staff consisting of Oscal, Fabre, Juanelo and Saju. Bajarano replaced Paulo Mesa in the outfield, this veteran died during the winter and Pompez says that the new man will be a fit running mate for Gms and Bara. Martin Dhligo, awarded a $100 prize as the best player in the Winter League in Cuba a Tew weeks ago, will be at shortstop and will be general utility man, a role in which he excelled by none. Arrango will be a year at first base and his first trip to the States. On this hot corner Dragana succeeds the veteran Portuondo, who will not come out of the islands this season. Alfonso, the little second baseman, who was such a sensation last year, returns. He is some doubt about whether the ancient Giacomo be recovered sufficiently in health to rejoin his boss. Crespo and Alvarze are being dropped along with Portuondo. Montclair "Y" Team Wins Although it waited until the last quarter of the game to show the brand of basketball it is capable of playing, the Washington Street Branch, Y. M. C. A., Big Five emerged victorious from a hot battle with the Monarch Club of Paterson last week. Up to the last quarter the game was even. There was no doubt then no who would be the victors after that. The "Y" Juniors defeated the X, A, A. C. P. five of Newark to the time of 37-25.

QUESTION WOMENS ASSOCIATION Officers of the newly formed New York State Association question the propriety of the temporary organization formed by Daughter Elis as the Women's New York State Association, counting on being taken in as the auxiliary of the New York State Association. Daughter Elis exalted Ruler James B. Allen, secretary of the association, the constitution has not yet been assigned and returned by the grand exalted ruler; therefore, the men's organization is not legal. According to Secretary Allen, the officers were not consulted nor invited to be present at the women's organization that he assured that the men want an auxiliary, he said it appeared premature for the daughter Elis to organize with the understanding that they would attend a dance with, the New York State Association in July in Mount Vernon.

Cultivate it. You buy advertised goods and service, don't you? Of course you do; everybody does. Just run over in your mind the various articles you purchased last week, or, better still, last month. Take the food-stuffs, for instance — your breakfast fruits, cereals and bacon are all advertised. The shoes you are wearing or the dress or suit you have on are probably well-known advertised makes. The rugs and linoleum on the floor in your home, the kitchen aluminum ware, gas ranges, hot water heaters, dish and clothes washers, cooking utensils of all kinds — practically everything you use is advertised. A manufacturer cannot afford to advertise shoddy or unworthy merchandise. He is jealous of his good name. A good name is a big asset to him in his trade. Advertising, therefore, is a form of insurance. It gives you a feeling of perfect confidence and safety when you ask for an advertised brand, because you are assured that you will get the quality and service you expect. The manufacturer's name is usually a guarantee. Cultivate the habit of reading advertisements. The more you read advertising the better will you be able to judge values. S. C.

Life wasn't much pleasure. I spoke to my mother-in-law about my condition. She told me that I had just much for her. I sent for Cardui right away; kept on taking it, and in a few weeks I felt stronger. I took on more weight, ate more, rested nights, and did not have the weakness I had in all. It sure helped me."

Wednesday, April 4, 1928 THIS is National Negro Health Week. The United States Public Health Service and many state and municipal health departments are operating in a determined effort to improve health and living conditions. THE CITY NEGRO especially should give serious attention to problems of health. To keep healthy in the country, this is notably true: a community like Harlem, where 200,000 people are packed close together. Whether one dissipates not, the pace of life here is fast, with a resultant danger to the nerves and the lungs; and in such a crowded place there is the ever-present danger of an epidemic. RESIDENTS of apartment houses should be particularly careful to say that the rules of the city health department are obeyed. There is too much filth in areaways, too much cluttering of fire escapes, too much fouling of dumbwaiters. Children need to be taught hygiene from the cradle.

According to an Associated Press dispatch the company has reported that its net earnings for the last eight months of 1927 were $12,292,246. After dividends were declared and all appropriations made there was a surplus of $432,301. The current assets were $87,440,479, and the current liabilities were less than one-fourth of the amount, $20,965,047. SOME CORPORATIONS contend that they would be ruined if they granted the increase of wages to their employees asked for. The cannot be said of the Pullman Company, with its surplus of $5,432,301. This corporation is the only large business in America that enjoys subsidy; it is subsidized by the traveling public in the form of tips to porters. No other corporation would dare to have such a low scale of wages coupled with such long working hours. For years, immune and unchallenged, the Pullman Company has exploited its Negro labor. Like other corporations, it must learn that this cannot last forever; that Negro Health Week THIS is National Negro Health Week. The United States Public Health Service and many state and municipal health departments are cooperating in a determined effort to improve health and living conditions. THE CITY NEGRO especially should give serious attention to problems of health. To keep healthy in the city requires more care than it does in the country. This is notably true in a community like Harlem, where 200,000 people are packed closely together. Whether one dissipates or not, the pace of life here is fast, with a resultant danger to the nerves and the lungs; and in such a crowded place there is the ever-present danger of an epidemic. RESIDENTS of apartment houses should be particularly careful to see that the rules of the city health department are obeyed. There is too much filth in areaways, too much cluttering of fire escapes, too much fouling of dumbwaiters. Children need to be taught hygiene from the cradle. The schools do all they can, but no school can do as much for health as a clean home.

NEGROES AND ITALIANS HIT BY DEPORTATION SYDNEY, Australia, April 2.—The House of Representatives of New South Wales has ordered the deportation of Sanny Clay's Plantation Orchestra. It understood the Federal cabinet will entertainers from Australia and the bun may extend to Negro boxes. William Hughes, former premier, demands that the ban be extended to curtail the entry of Italianans. "We believe in a British white Australina," he said. "Yet Italianans are coming to this country at the rate of 300 monthly."

White Australia THE PREMIER WILLIAM HUGHES of Australia demands that Negroes and Italians be barred from that country. He has had five Negro vaudeville performers deported because the Australian girls liked them. Negro jazz players have become so popular in Australia that the local musicians are suffering from lack of employment. Italians are coming in at the rate of 300 a month, and Premier Hughes fears the domination of Musolini. He further complains that the Commonwealth Band of Australia was boycotted in the United States. He says, "We colonized this country and it is for us to develop it along our own lines without dictation from anybody overseas." TO HEAR this man talk, one might think that white Australians were a choice breed of people, made of clay too fine for the common touch. But everyone knows that England sends Australia the people she wants to get rid of. It may seem harsh to call Australia the ash-barrel of the British Empire, but the same name might have been applied to some of the American colonies when they were first settled.

Virgin Islands TUSKEGEE and Hampton institutes, with the aid of the United States Government, are about to take a survey of conditions in the Virgin Islands. The inhabitants of these islands, mostly Negroes, contain that their trade and population have dwindled since the United States bought the islands from Denmark. The same complaint is made by Porto Ricans, who say that there is a grave economic crisis in their island. UNDER the dominion of the richest nation on earth, these islands might reasonably expect to grow rather instead of poorer. But they were acquired for military rather than for business reasons. The islands of the Caribbean Sea can be used as outlying defenses for the Panama Canal, and in the hands of an enemy they might become bases for an attack on the canal. In the meantime the Government should do something for the people of the islands, especially since its Prohibition laws ruined their exporting business.

Political Disillusionment IT HAS required forty years to disillusion the Negro concerning his political status. In a spasm of moral delirium, the nation gave the Negro potential political equality. The reconstruction enactments were adopted to put this purpose into effect. This represented the serious and sincere attitude of the dominant American sentiment for the moment. The passion of equality held its keen edge for half a generation. The reconstruction regime was not overthrown by the deviltry of the South, nor by the bartering of Rutherford B. Hayes, but by the slowly sinking thermometer of the national passion. the overthrown politicians of that day thought that they would speedily regain the blissful seats from which they had been suddenly cast out. Ten years of strenuous endeavor was spent in this valen endeavor. James Hollins was the most sacrificous statesman of his day. He shifted the Republican party from its passionate devotion to the rights of man to the practical interest in property. It was during the campaign of 1884, when he was the standard bearer of the Grand Old Party, that the sudden shift was made. Not one word about the overthrown rights of the Negro escaped his lips during that campaign. When he, from his porch in August, Me. hurled a reproach at the South for violating the Fifteenth Amendment. It was during this campaign that Mr. Blaine, clearly foreseeing that the American mind would grow faint on the heated issues of the Civil War, turned the tide of discussion into the channel of tariff, trade and commerce. The Grand Old Party has been materially minded ever since. The Negro has been beseeching, burying, and killing the old politician days would return. But no high functioning statesman or politician has been actuated by any such illusion. The last serious attempt to enforce the political equality of the races by practical legislation was during the administration of President Harrison. I sat in the gallery of the House of Repre- sentatives and watched Henry Cabot Lodge engineer the passage of the bill through the lower House. It was defeated in the Senate. Leading Western Republicans of the Senate traded favors with Southern Senators; the South engaged to unite with the West on the program of free silver; in turn, the West combined with the South to defeat the so-called Force Bill. Professor John M. Langton, who was at the time a member of the lower House of Congress, used the rights of the Negro for thirty pieces of silver. I followed the career of Henry Cabot Lodge from the defeat of the Force Bill to the MUSIC By EDGAR ROUZEAU Palm Sunday Musicale A galaxy of accomplished artists featured the musicale rendered under the auspices of the Citizens' Christmas Cheer Committee at the Elks' Auditorium on Sunday afternoon. Those who took part were: Elizabeth Slinkford, soprano; Ruth Ellis, dramatic reader; Mrs. Jenile F. Gowls, soprano; Francis Katrinson, baritone; Benjamin Ragatale, tenor; Don Dixon, violinist; Freeland soprano; Madime fina Grango, pianist; Raymond Francis, pianist, and John F. Johnson, bioso. Because of the variety of selections offered, it would be unugracious to select the most presuming performance offered, but we feel forced to commend the efforts of Benjamin Ragsdale, a member of the famous Hall Johnson Choir. He proved himself to be among the best talents of present crop violinists. His prodigial sense of vital, his technique more ample for the difficulties of the concerto, his tone strong and of the quality and his interpretation clear. Other numbers that merited distinction were the piano selection rendered by Madame Ina Grange; the group of poems recited by Ruth Ellis; the rendition of the "Rose of Picardy" by Miss Freeland; the playing of "Orentale" by Master Dixon; the interpatronale of Schumann's "The Two Grounds" by Adam Johnson and Mrs. Cowins, respectively, and the Fauna, a well executed piano selection rendered by Mr. Francis.—E.

In regards to Madame's singing, it is rather difficult to speak in terms of praise that would not By KELLY MILLER time of his death. To my best knowledge and belief, this noble stateman never thereafter uttered one strong word in defense of the Negro's political rights. From that day to this day lines of political alignment have tended to run with the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers. No longer is the rights of man the political slogan, but the power of money. As much as twenty years ago the Hon. — Kelly Miller — Henry W. Hlair, Senator from New Hampshire, told me that the Federal Election Bill constituted the last attempt of the Republican party to make secure the guaranteed rights of the Negro. "The black man," remarked this farseeing New England statesman, "need never again look to the federal government for any affirmative action in his behalf." White politicians and statesmen have reached this conclusion for forty years. The Negro is just now beginning to see it. Candor compels the political analyst to declare that the Negro is not without blame in effecting his own political undoing. The Negro politician has failed to support every statesman who ventured his political fate in his behalf. He has been too shifty to trim his sail to the favorable wind. His chief ambition, then as now, has been to win a wagon. Did he not sell out John Sherman, his stout advocate for Alger, with greater tangible induction? It was Tom Reed, as speaker of the House, which forced through the Force Bill against the bitterest opposition in the history of Congress. And yet the Negro delegates preferred McKinley, the tariff champion, to this stunnish advocate of human rights. Senator Carter, a former senator and her statement in recent times for the rights of the black man. But when he became candidate for the presidential nomination, the Negro politicians preferred another who had risked nothing and done little for their main contention.

Her interesting portrayal of Schubert's "Ave Maria," the remarkable range and command of tones and lyrics, were things of wonder-working, skill and Inspiration. All too solidum do we hear such exquisite interpretation of the song form with orchestral setting as was displayed on the piano by Miss Vivian Douglas in her playing of Gustav Lange's "The Love Song." She deserves unstinted praise for including them in her repertoire contributed to the afternoon's program, and for playing with the fine reserve and high artistry which she displayed. The occasion also marked the advent of two youthful violinists, Floyd W. Terry Jr. and James Z. Horne, 11 and 13 years of age respectively. Both boys displayed impressiveness with their instruments and gave promise of bigger accomplishments in proportion as their sense of rhythm and command of nuance become more developed. Madame Fannie DoKnight, a recitalist, also contributed several examples of selective readings to the program. Her mixture of high comedy and verism was of the highest order. Philip Harvey, an accomplished violinist; Prof. Samuel DeKnight, pianist; Miss Ada Wundd, draughts player, and several violinists; Dr. John Fugelia, also creditable offerings to the concert—E. R. Operatic Concert by Sommoviga's Pupils A vocal operatic concert under the direction of Professor Oddone Sommovigo was rendered Sunday afternoon at the Harmed S. D. A. Church, 106 West 127th street. The program was rather commendable, molded as it was from sheer music combined with distinctive vocal blending and tinged at times with rare execution. High praise is accorded Marjorie Harris, soprano soubrette with a long toward lyricism, for her exceptional rendition of Verdil's "Ritourne Vichor" taken from the opera "Alda," and to Clarina Clanlain, lyric dramatico soprano, for her well executed selection from Puccini's "Madame Butterly." Louis Barbary, tenor, displayed a good voice and sang in an authoritative manner, but he intently LETTERS Roosevelt's Progressive propaganda, which promised more than any other movement since reconstruction for the restoration of the black man's lost political prestige, it was the Negro vote that turned the tide against political progress to political reaction. It accomplished the list of a recital, the last campaign when John W. Davis, the Democratic candidate, who had taken the most advanced grounds of any presidential candidate since Garfield for the Fifteenth Amendment, was the standard bearer for his party, the Negro voice and vote went all but unanimously against him. Mr. Davis was the only nominee, within my political recollection, who, amidst the heat of the political campaign had the reservation to the query in the affirmative, regarding enforcement of the Fifteenth Amendment. During the last presidential campaign, I saw then as I see now that the Negro is no longer a political issue between the parties. The South has its politically unfriendly attitude not because it is South, but by reason of the relative numerosity of the Negro element. It will maintain this attitude, and will be equally effective in it, whichever party may be elected. The Negro is as completely shut out from political privileges in the South, and in the nation under President Coolidge, as he possibly could have been had John W. Nixon had. The Negro is not convinced by now that it is little or no political choice between the parties, then it is but fair to conclude that he is incapable of political wisdom. I am in favor of the nomination and election of Secretary Hoover. It seems to me that he is the most capable and right-minded of all of the available candidates of either party. He is a great American with a big mind and a great soul, not expect him, when he elects, to work any miracles in behalf of the Negro. Indeed, he has lived for more than half a century and functioned efficiently without any avowed or declared attitude on the race question. I will say of him as I once heard Thomas Fortune say of President McKinley: "He is a mighty good white man's preside-ner. This man will make of any of what he will likely make the White House. As a tosse up among good white men, I choose Mr. Hoover. I trust that the race will enter upon the campaign without any illusions. The election of Mr. Hoover will not solve the race problem; it will not bring about the enforcement of the Flittene Amendment; it will not eliminate distrustment, Jim-Crow cars or segregation. It is needless to delude ourselves or to mislead the race into any such hope. Nor will the triumph of the Democratic Party in the next election spell the doom of the Negro and the downfall of the nation. But taking all in all, I consider Mr. Hoover the best risk for the comprehensive welfare of the nation in general, and the Negro in particular. ed too much originality in his singing of "Arlosio" taken from Leconcavallo's "Pagliacello," which he sang in an elegant mood. Sigma Alpha Mu About every so often one sees a musical program that looks unalluring on paper, but turns out to be wholly interesting in its materialization. Such a program was the one rendered Sunday afternoon by the Sigma Alpha Mu in its first spring rectal at the St. James Presbyterian Church. There may be artists who can do a more startling execution of Vidal's "Arletta" than Ulysses Elam and who can make a more emotional display on the piano of Brahms's "Intermezzo," Opus 76, No. 6. Than戴维 Wilson, but let the contract manager assemble a group of Do Koven's ensemble song with greater charm, power and conviction than the Sigma club. The adagio and allegro appassionata passages in their singing is hardy De Koven's in the ordinary idea; it is rather Mozart's. The recital on the whole was brilliant. Miss Blanche K. Thomas has assembled a group of promising voices and an accomplished pianist, which in combination gave the renditions all the color that could have been desired. Steiner's "Crucifixion" will be rendered by the choir of Grace Congregational Church with assisting artists on April 8 at 9 o'clock in the auditorium of Grace Church. Olive White Norman, coloratura soprano, will be presented in a song recital at the Elks' Auditorium, 160 West 129th street, on the evening of April 26 at 8:30 o'clock. Norman is by no means a master in Harlem, having appeared in concerts each year since 1916. She is a graduate of the Conservatory of Southern California, and has studied French scores under the same system adopted by Roland Hayes: the Francesco method. Congregational Church Choir To Give "Crucifixion" The choir of Grace Congregational Church, 208 West 139th street, the Rev. Alexander C. Garner, pastor, on Easter Sunday night will render Stuhlner's "Crucifixion." Mrs. Prince, L. McCormack. The Negro in the World's Literature By THOMAS L. G. OXLEY IT IS not generally safe to anticipate the verdict of posterity, but there are things which this writer has produced which may be trusted to survive the tests of time. Cotter was literary, first by organization, then by resolute study and training. His heart was in his work, and he never ceased to try to improve himself further, and to satisfy, if it were, himself as well as his public. In this age of gross adulation of success, few young Negro poets have received so much as he. But he would not let it spoil him; he kept his ideal ever in view, and pursued it as it fled, horizon-like, before him. ney of Corona, a well-known soprano, will be the assisting artist. Fortunately this group in having a very fine male section, composed of Frank Reed, William H. Holland, D. Eugene Fields and Percy W. Bean as basses; Nelson B. Scott, Joseph S.

Porter, and the Misses Alma Raynolds, Susie Stewart, Sarah Nelson, Antoinette Williams, Stephanie Davis. The alto singers are: Mrs. Walter S. Hammond, Systa Garner and Adelle Potter and Miss Anne Greene. The choir is under the direction of Lily Ovley L. Jeter, a pianist of wide repute, and the organist is Hugo Bornn, a senior student in piano and composition at the Institute of Musical Art.

A bronze cast of the head of Mr. Jones is being made for the Spring Salon by Miss Mary Weston, sculptress. The Hampton Choir The Hampton Institute Choir of one hundred mixed voices from Hampton, Va., will make their first New York appearances in Carnegie Hall on Monday evening, April 16, presented under the auspices of the Society of Music. The choir, which has been trained by Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, will present a program comprising sacred songs of the early church, Russian Liturgical anthems, religious compositions by American composers, Negro Spirituals and the "Negro idiom in motives and anthems arranged" in December last the choir gave a concert in the auditorium of the Library of Congress under the auspices of the Elizabeth Coolidge Springge Foundation. To Publish Prize Composition Announcement has just been made of the acceptance of offer by a New York ork music publishing house to publish the prize-winning choral, "Let Predeon's Music Ring," which won first prize for Wellington Adams, composer, of Wellington C., in last year's Rohling-Wanamack composers' Contest at St. Louis, M. Mr. Adams, the composer, is director of the Columbia Conservatory of Music in Washington, D. C. Salvation Army to Enlarge Work Persons down but never out will be the future beneficiaries of the proposed enlargement of the Harlam Salvation Army Center, 48 West 155th street, under the management of Ensign Lambert Bailey, this improvement to be included in the half million dollar budget of 1928-29 for which a spring drive has been started. The plan was made public at a Salvation Army lunchroom in Tabb's Grill Room, 504 Lenox avenue, last Wednesday noon, with Alderman Fred R. Moore presiding. A committee of six was appointed to report to the Salvation Army the community's most urgent social needs together with remedial suggestions. These appointed to serve on the committee are: the Reverends Clayton Power, Thomas J. Brown, J. A. Steel, Jesse Shipp, Thomas C. Tabb and Alderman Moore. Others present were: Watt Terry, Lester Walton, William H. Wortham and Romana Hordman, S. Magnolia, Major James Harvey and Colonels Charles Wolte and E. B. Underwood, all white, of the Salvation Army. Major Harvey outlined the pur- He was born Sept. 2, 1855, the son of Joseph Seaman and Martha Vaughan Cotter, in Louisville, Kentucky. He attended Stak University for two years, when he developed tuberculosis and had to remain from college. He died Feb. 3, 1919, with half his work, as it seemed, unachieved, at an age when many men have just started on the literary road. But geniuses before him have died younger than he and left imperfectable names. His was a complete and honorable life, in spite of its brevity; and it was long enough to give many readers reason to respect and admire him. The keynote of Cotter's work is a yearning for sweetness and light, for calm, peace and beauty, in a restless world that to him was out of joint. He had much of the mysticism of poetry, and sometimes became obscure by aiming at impressions stronger than he had clear and well defined ideas to support. Had his life been prolonged, and with life he had enjoyed that ease which was necessary for the undisturbed exercises of the faculties, he would have risen far above most of his contemporaries. I select at random his little poem, "The Goal": I have found joy, Surcease from sorrow, From qualms for today And fears for tomorrow. I have found love Sifted of pain, Of life's harsh goading And worldly disdain. I have found peace Still-born from grief, From soul's bitter mocking. And heart's unbelief. Now may I rest, Soul-glad and free; For Lord, in the travail, I have found Thee. His poems are fresh with the songs of youth. They are of beauty which comes from life heaten out by his young yet matured heart. His music is broken, but when it does ring true, there is no sweeter sound in literature. We may read in an hour the sum and substance of his contribution to Negro literature—to American literature—but we can never forget A. small volume will hold it, but it will stand side by side with the best. America has to show. His increase as time goes on though the natural knowledge of his writings will probably remain the possession of a few. He published "The Band of Gideon," "Out of the Shadows," and "The Ken of the Spirit." poses of the Salvation Army's work, the main element of which, he said, is religious influence directed toward the hearts and transforming the lives of men and women. Quite unlike the Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations, it is the purpose of the Salvation Army to reach the man or woman lowest down, he said. Major Harvey said, "My only quarel with other social organizations is that theirs is purely a material work; there is no religion in you.

The program was directed by the Scientific Unit. The theme was the "Scientific Hall of Thought" as it relates to various scientific details. The theory of evolution was discussed by Mia Hilda Stoute; Miss Lucille Spencer discussed scientific experiments in medicine, and Frances Bowen spoke on "An Outline of Science and Some Recent Advances in Physics." At the next meeting of the intrcollegiate Association on Sunday afternoon, April 15, Prof. Harry A Overstreet of the College of the City of New York will be the speaker.
