DEFUNCT BANK HEAD SLAYS SELI Dr. Seth F. Stewart Goes Free in Levy Case REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Complete in Two Sections HAD BEEN HELD AS CO-DEFENDANT IN ABORTION CASE Refusal of Miss Liza Levy to Give Testimony Calculated to Incriminate Herself and Physician Also Frees Her-Other Co-defendant Dead After death had set its seal upon Samuel Fisher Duckett, 21, 32 West 131st street, and thus settled the score against him on a charge of abortion, in which he was a co-defendant with Dr. Seth F. Stewart, 33, 258 West 136th street, Liza Levy, 10-year-old school girl, 2329 Seventh avenue, was arraigned in Heights Court last Wednesday on the same charge and testified before Magistrate Hyman Bushel, who dismissed the charges against Miss Levy and Dr. Stewart. Miss Levy took full possession of her constitutional rights in refusing to give testimony which she felt would incriminate her; this being done upon the advice of her attorney, Frederick D. Johnson, 206 Broadway. Therefore, no testimony was heard from Miss Levy that would in any way prove Dr. Stewart guilty of having performed upon her an illegal operation on Feb. 1 when Dickett, Miss Levy's dead sweetheart, is said to have taken her to Dr. Stewart's office for that purpose. The arresting officer, Patrolman Webber of the West 135th street station, told the court that Miss Levy confessed to him on Feb. 2 that Dr. Stewart did perform an abortive operation upon her and that she permitted it to be performed. The court ruled that an admission of the alleged crime to the arresting officer was not sufficient to hold the defendants without corroboration. The defense then made a motion for dismissal upon the ground that there was no corroboration, and the motion was granted. Attorney Joseph Well, white, 1440 Broadway, son of Magistrate Well, defended Mr. Stewart. Technically, the charge of abortion against the dead youth could not be dismissed until someone testified that they had seen his body since his demise. Miss Levy's brother, Edward Levy, connected with the Dumman Brothers' general establishment, submitted this testimony. Duckett fell a victim to madness and insanity, caused by deep sorrow, disgrace and bitter remorse, and died in Manhattan State Hospital on May 23. Bushel Sworn In Magistrate Bushel, who was well known as a criminal lawyer, was sworn into office last Wednesday in the presence of Judge Crane of the Supreme Court, Judge Barrett of the Court, and Assistant District Attorney Bannon and McDonnell of District Attorney Banton's office, respectively. Leaders and Magistrate charges who sat with him during the sessions throughout the day. BROOKLYN WOMAN GRANTED DIVORCE Mrs. Jessie H. McClamara 260 Nestland avenue, well-known Brooklyn, was granted an absolute division from her husband, George McClamary, early last week in Part 1 of the Supreme Court of Brooklyn before Judge Callahan.

To every bride falls the honor of choosing the setting for her wedding. Miss Juanita Marjory Robinson, who became the bride of Henry Robert Jackson Jr. on Thursday evening, June 28, at St Mark's Methodist Episcopal Church, 138th street between St. Nicholas and Edgecombe avenues, chose an Elizabethan setting for hers—and it was unique! The three ministers who officiated on this stately occasion were Dr. F. R. Butler of Philadelphia, the Rev. R. A. Bolden, assistant pastor of the church, and Dr. Thomas Potter, white, of the City Missionary Society. Long before the organist, Dr. Melville Churton, took his seat at the organ, the invited guests arrived at the church. This edifice seats comfortably 2,000 people, and yet many spectators had to stand in the rear and balcony of the church. The reserved sections were held until 7:30 o'clock. The bride is the youngest of the three children of the Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor for five years of the church in which the ceremony was held, and Mrs. Robinson. The groom is the youngest son of Henry R. Jackson Sr., who came here from Springfield, O., to witness the ceremony, and Mrs. Jackson.

MEMPHIS BANK FOUNDER-DIRECTOR TAKES OWN LIFE Wayman Wilkerson, Also General Manager of Tri-State Casket Company, Despondent Since Crash of Institution He Started MEMPHIS, Tenn., July 2. — Financial distress following the crash of the Fraternal and Solvent Bank and Trust Company here on Dec. 29 last, together with other business worries, is said to have caused Wayman Wilkerson, one of the directors of the bank and president and general manager of the Tri-State Casket and Coffin Company, to take his life Sunday by shooting himself through the brain. THREE PAY DEATH PENALTY IN OKLA McALESTER, Okla., June 29 Three men, one of whom was white, paid the death penalty for murder here today in Oklahoma's first triple execution. Theodore B. Ruster, convicted of slaying a Muskogee storekeeper, and Willie O'Neill, slayer of an Oklahoma City street car motorman, were the two colored men put to death. "When t Was "When the Devil Was Sick" When the devil was sick, the devil a monk would be; When the devil was well, the devil a monk was he. THESE OLD LINES come to mind after a reading of the keynote speech and the platform of the Demo- cratic convention at Houston. No platform of an American political party has ever contained more insincerity or saddled more hypocrisy upon its candidate. It makes entertaining reading for anyone who does not know American customs; but instead of meeting great issues fairly it glosses them over with vague generalities and attacks on the Republican party. When it makes positive and concrete proposals everyone knows that the Democratic party has not the least intention of living up to them. The keynote speaker knows very well that Alexander Hamilton performed inestimable service to the United States, that he put this country on its feet financially, yet he talked as if Hamilton had been one of the worst traitors ever born. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY'S constant harping on the ideals of Thomas Jefferson is ludicrous. Jefferson's ideal of pure Democracy has never prevailed in the South, which fought the bloodiest war of American history against it. The South has always been artisocratic in theory and performance; its whole political and social structure is based not only upon the supremacy of one race over another, but upon the rule of the chosen few. The real enforcers of the Jeffersonian principle were the Northern Republicans, who put an end to slavery and gave citizenship to all men regardless of race, color or previous condition, and to this day there is more real democracy in the Republican party than among the so-called followers of Jefferson. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY a Democratic convention has tried to talk sense on the tariff question. In this respect its hypocrisy has been traditional; every four years it has promised the country a low tariff. Yet under Wilson and Cleveland the Democrats were in power for sixteen years, and the tariff is not lowered yet. They know (CONTINUED ON EDITORIAL PAGE) Mr. Wilkerson was the founder of the Fraternal Savings Bank, which was merged October 1, 1927, with the Solvent Savings Bank, under the presidency of T. H. Hayes, who was arrested in April in connection with the bank's failure, found guilty of fraudulent breach of trust and, on June 1, sentenced to one year in prison. Mr. Wilkerson was grand treasurer of the Knights of Pythias and grand trustee of the I. B. P. O.

C., July 2. If proposed plans are approved by Dr. Hubert Work, the chairman of the Republican National Committee, the Republican presidential campaign among Negro voters this year will differ materially from campaigns of former years, it was learned Tuesday. Before leaving for Brule, Wis., where he submitted his resignation as Secretary of the Interior to President Coolidge. Dr. Work gave Horace Mann, his assistant, authority to act for him in all matters pertaining to the campaign work among Negro voters. Mr. Mann will select the personnel to handle the campaign work. He will also decide upon the course to be followed in corralling the vote. His actions will be subject to the approval of Dr. Work. Had No Authority to Bar Reporter, Superintendent Says As the result of the report in last week's issue of The Amsterdam News concerning the barring of one of its investigating reporters from Harlem Hospital and of the threat the reporter heard from Dr. Salerno, a rigid investigation was conducted by Dr. Rudolf Rapp, superintendent of the hospital, in the course of which Dr. Salerno was reprimanded. It was also reported that Dr. Salerno may be transferred to some other institution. Dr. Rapp announced that no one was given any authority to bar any member of the press from the institution. All the members of the staff have been notified by Dr. Rapp to give out no information to the press concerning the hospital without his permission. He stated that he is willing at all times to receive the press and to extend any courtesy within the limits of his authority. It was also revealed that it was not Superintendent of Nurses Sadle O'Breln who ordered the reporter from the hospital premises on Monday evening, but one of the assistant superintendents of nurses who was on night duty.

Mr. Mann will the campaign work. He will al followed in corralling the vote, the approval of Dr. Work Proposed plane call for a centering of all activities relating to Negro voters in the main headquarters in Washington. There will be no Negro organization, according to these plans, in either the Eastern headquarters in New York or the Western headquarters in Chicago. The work of organizing the voters, publicity and the dispatch of campaign speakers will be carried on from the Washington headquarters. This departure from the way in which former campaigns have been conducted among Negro voters is in keeping with other changes in the general plan for the campaign this year. This will be the first time that the general headquarters have been in Washington in many years. This will also be the first campaign that the full National Committee has directed in many years. No decision regarding a director of the work among colored voters has yet been reached. Robert R. Church of Memphis Tenn.; John R. Hawkins, who seconded the nomination of Mr. Hoover at the Kansas City convention, and Homer G. Phillips of St. Louis, Mo., have been mentioned. Mr. Hawkins is proposed for the work by Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University. Mr. Phillips has the backing of Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute. The director, whoever may be chosen, will be given three assistants. One will be in charge of organizing voters, another will have charge of the speakers' bureau, and the third will conduct the publicity. These assistants will be given assistants to aid them. The director will also be given an advisory committee.

Reilly, white, of the West 135th street station, on a charge of murder in connection with his shooting to death of "Alco" James Sesom, 34, wealthy alleged bootlegger, in front of his home, 61 West 135th street, about 3 a.m. May 15. Reilly was set free on June 14 and restored to police duty a week later. Nothing was done in the matter until a private citizen sought and obtained Reilly's arrest and incarceration fully two weeks after the shooting, which was characterized by witnesses as nothing less than cold blooded murder. If there was any suspicion of homicide the District Attorney's office should have arrested Reilly about an hour after the killing, it is said. probably be concluded by July 20. The campaign will get under way August 1. Each State organization will largely run the campaign in its State. It is planned that the only direction of campaign work that the National Committee will exercise will be for the purpose of coordinating national and State activities. Dr. Moton was here last Friday and conferred with Mr. Hoover. Body of Unidentified Man Taken From River The body of an unidentified man was taken from the Harlem River at Highbridge at 1:30 p. m. Friday and removed to the morgue. Detectives Winterhalter, Boyden and Scott of the West 13th street station conducted an investigation. In the pocket of the black coat of cheap material the man wore was found the name of Rogers Stevens, South Norwalk, Conn. He wore suspenders. The man's age was about 60, height 5 feet 7 inches, weight 170 pounds, and his hair was gray. He wore a white outing shirt with a soft white collar, red and blue tie, white socks, black shoes and cheap, white cotton underwear. In his pockets were $11 in bills and $1.12 in change. There were no marks of violence upon the man, but his skin was in very poor condition, it is said. The police believe he remained in the water since May 8, as newspaper in the sores of his Thom McAn shoes here that date. The body was found by John A. Johnson, 29 East street, Staton Island. Graft, Fee Causes Killing Witnesses declare that the killing followed an argument between Sesom and the policeman over graft money, as Reilly is said to have been receiving a regular "fee" of $5 a week from Sesom, but this time demanded $8 because Sesom was giving a private party for a number of friends whom Reilly said were too noisy. The two had been very friendly for ten years, it is said. Charles Williams, living at Sesom's home, is said to be the one who opened the door when Reilly knocked and demanded them to "pipe down." Williams arrived too late to testify before the Grand Jury. When the officer left the house, Sesom's friends persuaded him to pay Reilly at least $3, it is reported, and when Sesom started across the street directly in front of his home, Reilly began clubbing him and Sesom grabbed his nightstick and asked him to stop. Reilly threatened to shoot and then Sesom, let go of the stick and turned and walked four paces with his back to Reilly, who then walked pp behind him and deliberately shot him in the back of the head, witnesses declared. Sesom died at Harlem Hospital nine hours later. One Mr. Fisher, a friend of the Sesome, said he overheard a con- (Continued on Page 2.)

ANNUAL CONFERENCE CLOS. Coolidge Commends Organization for Methods Used in Securing Rights Coolidge Commends Organization for Methods Used in Securing Rights Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, in Keynote Speech, Says Disfranchisement in Southern States Imposes Voting Inequality Upon Entire Nation (SPECIAL TO THE AMSTERDAM NEWS.) LOS ANGELES, June 30. — Greetings and high commendations from President Calvin Coolidge to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People marked the opening of the association's nineteenth annual conference which began here last Wednesday with a mass meeting at Philharmonic Auditorium. Mayor George E. Cryer delivered the address of welcome before a crowd of more than 3,000, and nearly 2,000 were turned away. The conference closes next week. President Coulidge's message of greeting was addressed to James Welton Johnson, executive secretary of the association. The President said, "I am glad each year to express my regard for the alms and achievements of your organization. You have used sound methods in securing for the Negro the rights to which he is entitled under the Constitution. At the same time, you have promoted the cause of tolerance among all races and creeds. "As opportunities have increased, so have the colored people shown their ability and energy in taking advantage of them. May I reiterate here what I said in my annual message to Congress in December." The full text of the President's tribute to the Negro was contained in the message, speaking in highest terms of his amazing progress, his professional ability and decrying the foul crime of lynching," to which "every principle of order and law and liberty is opposed." "May your association have increasing success in promoting its worthy objects," the message concluded. Political Power Distorted The keynote address was delivered on the opening day by Dr. W. E. B. Du Bols, editor of The Crisis, who spoke on "The Presidential Election, Black Votes and Democracy in the United States." Disfranchisement of the Negro in Southern States, the speaker asserted, has brought about such distortion of political power in the United States that a small white oligarchy in the South is the dictator of the nation. Dr. Du Bols said that this situation has transferred political power into the hands of a small group of whites and that, in the election of 1920, as many as from 50 to 90 percent of voters in the far Southern States retained from voting. The consequence was that, in voting for Representatives, the Southern States enjoyed in some cases ten times as much political power as citizens in the North. "At the event of a Presidential election," continued Dr. Du Bols, "singular compilations are made. The Democrats can start out as assuming the votes of eleven Southern States with, at present, 124 of the 531 electoral votes. They need to fight, therefore, for only 142 electoral votes to have the majority of the electoral college. On the other hand, the Republicans must leave out of account 142 electoral votes at the start and of the other 407 electoral votes they can afford to lose only 111. "But if this is the plight of the Republicans, what can be said of any third party? It simply has no chance at all." "As sure as fate, some day there is coming in the United States a political controversy with social and economic power which is going to open suddenly the question as to why the South has three times the political power of the West, and why New England, with its disfranchised foreign workers, has more political voice than the West." Rabbi Coffee Lauds Minority "A Negro who will not be faithful to his own can never win the respect of upstanding white men," said Rabbi Rudolph I. Coffee of San Francisco, who addressed Thursday night's meeting of the conference. Rabbi Coffee spoke vigorously against the meeting together of the races in America. "Israel Zangwil was hopelessly wrong in 'The Melting Pot,'" he said. "America will not allow us to melt even if we wished. "The Negro's pride in his past, his hopes for the future, his self-respect, will not allow him to merge with the majority. America's real strength consists in the blending of healthy differences. "Every majority group in time becomes despotic. A minority thought saved this country at its birth. Only when there is a strong, aggressive and assertive minority does the majority do its best." It is a national disrace that Negro children receive less public schooling than do white children. States that make the education of the black child one whit inferior to that of the white are hurting the Negro not half as much as they are wounding their country's future. "America is infinitely richer because of Paul Lawrence Dunbar, Polish Hayes and Florence Mills. How much poorer America would be if never had your magnificent contribution to music. The white man simply cannot combine your mastering optimism, despite terrible oppression, with confidence in God, expressed in the Negro melody." In concluding his address Rabbi Moore credited the N. A. A. C. P. with having brought about a reversal by the United States Supreme Court of its own position taken in the Loe Frank case. the Intuitable Dean William Pickens, field secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. and foremost iconoclast on the race question, stripped bare to the naked bone of truth white America's claim to superiority when he addressed the conference Friday evening. "Those with the economic advantages are always the 'better people," said Mr. Pickens. "The sentiment that grows around a class is subsequent and secondary; the economic fact is precedent and primary. "Serfs, the 'common people,' the lower caste, the working classes, the subjects, and the inferior race, are determined by their relation to the economic goods of society. "Masters, rulers, aristocrats, blue bloods, the higher caste, 'dicutes,' capitalists, kings and the 'superior race' have their status determined by their relation to the same goods. A slave is lowest in the social scale because he is lowest in the economic scale, and for no other reason. "Dirty slaves and ignorant personal servants seem more acceptable to the dominant race than clean and economically independent colored freemen. A clean and intelligent Negro eating his own biscuits in the hotel dining room is of more annoyance to the average white American than is the solled and sweating Negro back in the hotel kitchen, who is handling everybody's bleuits. "The ruling caste in Mistississippi makes passionate apoceses and drastic laws against any legitimate and honorable mixing of the blood of two races, but produces a hundred thousand mulattoes by illegitimate contacts. "Negro malds may arrange a white woman's hair, brush her teeth and suckle her babies, but may not sit on the far end of a long pew in her church. "These seeming inconsistencies no longer puzzle us when we apply the law to them; for Negro slaves, cooks and other servants represent economic subjection, while the Negro freeman, hotel guest and others represent economic equality. "There is certainly no physical difference between a wife and a concubine, but there is this important difference: the concubine is but an economic underling, while the wife must be an economic partner. "Even the phenomenon of race pride loses some of its glamor and all of its inconsistency in the light of this understanding. Race pride is not an instinct but a consciousness of advantage. Even the influence of religion has not overcome the power of economic interest to determine human relationships. "The fundamental idea of 'race' itself has no universal consistency except in economic relations. A separate race living in the midst of another race must be a group bound to a separate economic plane, and any group bound to the same economic plane is, or soon will become, one race. The variegated Negro race in America is the world's best illustration of this truth." Hindu Lawyer Speaks S. G. Pandit, Hindu attorney of Los Angeles, addressed the conference and sharply criticised what he declared to be America's "superstition of race superiority." Mr. Pandit declared that each race, like each individual, is unique and indispensable, with its own contribution to make to the world, and none can truly claim superiority over any other. "There is no greater stimulus one can supply another," said Mr. Pandit, "than to evoke his unique expression of himself. To the extent that he is thwarted from self-expression all humanity is rendered poorer." Moorfield Storey of Boston, national president of the association, sent a letter, which was read to the conference, hailing the brilliant achievements, of the N. A. A. C. P during the past year, while Dr. H. No-Profit SLIP.

Hudson, president of the Los Angeles branch, outlined the flaming highlights of its glorious progress during the nineteen years of its existence. Dr. Miriam Van Waters, Referee of the Juvenile Court of Los Angeles, addressed the conference on the opening night, stating that California had been favorable to the progress of the Negro, and traced the history of the race in Los Angeles as far back as the early Spanish explorers and Negro pioneers. The speaker declared that Negroes owned and operated the first steamship in San Francisco Bay. City Stages Gala Welcome The streets of the city were decorated with flags and banners bearing words of welcome. Two special trains bearing the national office staff of the association, delegates and friends from the Eastern, Southern and Western States to the conference were met by prominent white and colored citizens. They were accompanied with a special police escort as they were driven through the city to the Hotel Somerville—built in Spanish mission style—which is said to be the most elaborate, modern hotel owned and operated exclusively by Negroes in America. It was formally opened to the public on the opening day of the conference. The associa-tion's officers, delegates and friends are domiciled there during the conference. Philharmonic Auditorium, where the conference is being held, is located in the heart of the downtown district, and is famous for its symphonies and concerts. Many outstanding artists have appeared there, including Roland Hayes. Bishop Martin Speaks Five thousand Negroes of color so light that they are able to "pass over" do so every year and become ostensibly whites, Bishop J. W. Martin of the American Methodist Episcopal Zion Church told the conference Monday. He made the statement in the course of a plea for better treatment of Negroes, saying that those who "pass" do so only because they are forced to it if they wish to do the kind of work they like best and for which they are best fitted. "I know the Mayor of a certain town," said Bishop Martin, "who is a white man now but as a boy was as good as Negro as the community had, and his brother is to this day a good colored preacher. We want the doors of all professions and trades, of all skilled and unskilled labor opened to us, and we want them opened wide enough for us to get in without having to "pass." Girl, 7, Danced in Club: Father and Manager Held Charged with allowing his seven-year-old daughter perform in a night club, in violation of the law, William Jones, 50, 44 West Ninety-sixth street, was arrested along with the child's theatrical manager, Louis Bolton, 34, white, of the Commodore Athletic Club, 351 West Forty-second street, and both men were arraigned in West Side Court before Magistrate McQuade early last week and held in $500 ball each for Special Sessions. The place of the arrest was the Everglades Rest, 203 West Forty-eighth street. The child was first taken into custody by the Children's Society but later released. William Perlman, white, manager of the club, in explaining the circumstances to a reporter, said that the child, Esther Jones, had not been hired by the club but performed only as a matter of exhibiting her talents gratis with the idea of favorably impressing some of the white theatrical managers present with a view toward getting booked on some vaudeville circuit. Women in Battle Over Dessert Spoon iberta Jefferson, 50, 254 West 129th street, is accused of stabbing and blackjacking Rose Montgomery, also of the same address, during a conflict Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The argument is said to have started over a missing dessert spoon which disappeared earlier in the day. As the result, Mrs. Jefferson was arrested shortly after and charged with felonious assault. Patrolman Egan of the West 129th street station arrived on the scene just as a large crowd gathered. He commanded a taxicab and took Mrs. Montgomery to Harlem Hospital. Car Fractures Man's Foot Paul M.

D. Lewis Ordered by Magistrate To Apologize for Remark About Police Dr. David D. Lewis, 393 Edgecombe avenue, who is editor of the Harlem Democrat, was compelled by Magistrate Vitale in Harlem Court on Saturday to publicly apologize for stating that Mrs. Kate Branch, 32, a masseur, 10 West 113th street, was being persecuted by Detective Hoffman of Inspector Ryan's staff. BASIC BUTTER Remarkable Beauty Treatment Gives amazingly quick results in lightening dark skins DR. FRED PALMER'S SKIN WHITENER The magistrate also reprimanded Dr. Lewis for renting rooms for massage purposes to Mrs. Branch, knowing that she had been previously convicted of crime. The testimony in court disclosed that Dr. Lewis occupies a five-room apartment at the 113th street address. Two front rooms are used by Lewis as the office of the Harlem Democrat, while the three rear rooms are rented to Mrs. Branch for massaging purposes. The detective testified that complaints have been received that women were massaging men and that the place was being used for alleged immoral purposes. He visited the place and after a conversation with Mrs. Branch she offered to massage him. He then served her with a summons for violating the law by offering to massage a male without a certificate from a physician. When Mrs. Branch was arraigned she stated she was a duly licensed masseur and that she did not know she required a certificate from a physician to massage a man. Magistrate Vitale stated he intended stopping the practice of women massaging men. It was then that Dr. Lewis stepped forth as a witness for Mrs. Branch. He declared that the police were "parsecuting" Mrs. Branch and that he had filed complaint with Police Commissioner Warren and intended exposing conditions in his newspaper. A Mr. Hotchkiss, said to be the associate editor of the Harlem Democrat, is also said to have interceded for Mrs. Branch. Dr. Lewis declared he was formerly the owner of a health sanitaryum and that it was he who had taught Mrs. Branch the art of massaging. He stated that people of the opposite sex were massaged by women in other cities without violating any law. The magistrate then adjourned the case and requested a probation officer to make an investigation. The probation officer reported that Mrs. Branch had been convicted twice before, once for vagrancy and also for a violation of the Tenement House Act, which involved alleged prostitution. On both occasions she served a full sentence. After reading the report of the probation officer the magistrate stated he believed the story told by the detective. Dr. Lewis again repeated that Mrs. Branch was being persecuted and when the magistrate offered to permit him to produce evidence that she was being persecuted or "framed" by Detective Hoffman he stated he had evidence only of a general nature concerning the police in general. The magistrate was dissatisfied with his explanation and ordered him to publicly apologize to Detective Hoffman, who was not present in court. Dr. Lewis offered a public apology, which was accepted by the court. "You should never have rented rooms to this woman," the magistrate told Dr. Lewis. "I am satisfied that you knew she had been previously convicted of crime. I am also satisfied that her place is being conducted as a campface and Remarkable Be Gives amazing in lightening Now it is remarkably easy to have a lighter, lovelier, clearer skin. No matter how dark, muddy or imply your complexion is, Dr. Fred Palmer's marvelous Skin Whitener will quickly make it supremely beautiful in a surprisingly short time. After a very few applications of this wonderful beauty treatment, your skin clears and lightens as if by magic—tan marks, pimples, freckles andblemishes go, and that excessive oil which causes "shine" disappears. Only with this famous Skin Whitener can you get such DR. FRED WHIT that acts are being committed there which are not allowed by law." The magistrate then advised the probation officer to report the case to the License Commissioner so that steps can be taken to have her massage license revoked. He then fined Mrs. Branch $25 or five days. She paid the fine and was released. Liberia Dedicates State Hospital Use Made of Building Erected by the German Government WASHINGTON, D. C. July 2- The Republic of Liberia dedicated a Government hospital at Monrovia on Sunday afternoon, May 13, according to a report to the State Department by William T. Francis, United States Minister-Resident and Consul-General. The State Department made this report public Monday. The buildings used for the hospital unit, Minister Francis reported, are three houses built by the German Government some years ago for its cable station, residence for the officers in charge and clubhouse for its employees. The clubhouse is used as the hospital. It contains a large reception room, thirty beds, an operating room, a general and a dietary kitchen. In the operating room is a modern German operating table. There is, however, no X-ray machine or other electrical apparatus for equipment. The cable building is used as the administration building and quarters for the physicians in charge. The residence furnishes quarters for the nurses. As there is no water system in Monrovia, the report states, the hospital has no running-water facilities. The site is a commanding one, Mr. Francis reports, high and overlooking Monrovia Bay and the ocean. The grounds are well laid out and the whole offers a beautiful and picturesque view from across the bay, as well as from the deck of a steam-approaching the town. The staff is composed of: Dr. J. A. Dingwall, superintendent; Dr. J. Abrayton Coine, assistant superintendent; Dr. W. O. Wehrle, surgeon; Miss Magdalene L. Cooper, chief nurse, and Miss Jeanette L. Howard and Miss Lucille Todd, nurses. The chief nurse is a sister-in-law of President King. She and her two assistants received their training at Lincoln Hospital, New York City. The entire staff is Liberian, except Dr. Wehrle, who is a German physician engaged in general practice. Miss Todd is an American Negro, who has lived in Monrovia nearly all her life. She is the daughter of American missionaries. beauty Treatment ly quick results g dark skins amazing results, so quickly and so matchless.

She wore a alloy gray outfit and carried a bouquet of sweet peas. She was followed by a dozen other relatives and intimate friends of the family, who sat with her in the family pew. The bride's mother took her seat at 8 o'clock. She wore a complete outfit of beige georgette and lace. She carried flowers. Procession Starts The vested junior choir of the church, which the bride has directed for years, led the wedding procession.

A gown of bridal satin, with long, tight sleeves, Y-shaped neck and perfectly plain except at the walatline, where rows of tucking were shaped at the hips, was worn by the petite bride. The skirt, with its uneven hem, fell in folds to the knee and there it gave a "spilt skirt" effect. The skirt and the peacock train were cut in one piece.

Bleaching Cream --- THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT JUNE, now ancient history, brought with it marriages of all kinds: Elaborate and, according to Emily Post, small and just as correct; elaborate and social failures; colorful; colorless; lengthy; short; touching; heartless; jazzy; strictly reverent and religious. When all the tuss is over, and as a wedding-goer you have time to reflect, you feel as I do—that the sacredness of marriage is first on the decline. And it is to be pitilid! "Until death us do part" is a huge vow. With a jazz setting, several hundred curious spectators as an audience, a license from New York as the permit to marry, and a one-time (or at present) assistant pastor of one of the leading churches of the city as the minister, Miss Aurelia Halback and Leonard Paul were married on Friday night at Manhattan Casino. The act itself was a fine publicity stunt for the promoters of the Marathon Dance, and this is granted. Deep down, though, near the soul—if there is such a thing—Aurelia Halback, who hails from Jackson, Miss., and Leonard Paul, a photographer from New Orleans, La., may not have been mindful of the sacredness, the reverence, the thought which once accompanied a marriage. I do, however, wish them success. Truly, Father Jazz invaded one of our most sacred institutions and committed a crime, if he has become the father of a child called a "Jazz Wedding."—T. E. B.

JULY 4. 1928 HOUSEWINE EXCHANGE Summer Dinner. Summer time is color time at the table when fresh fruits and vegetables make menu planning easy and interesting. Variety and simplicity become the keynotes as weather grows warmer. The distinctive quality of hot weather dinners should be in their fresh appeal. Expound your variety of dishes, just as nature grows lavish in her variety. Give your family new menus—substantial, yet different meals, in which the necessary color is supplied by the abundance of the summer market. Fruit and vegetables alone do not, to my mind, constitute an entirely satisfactory list of necessary summer foods. Salads, fresh vegetables and raw fruits may gratify the more delicate appetites, but how about the men? After all, the test of a meal is in its ability to satisfy the hungry male. The men of your family may wear white flannel, gayer ties and Panda mats during the summer months, but do not let this cooler raiment deceive you. They usually work just as hard and require just as much nourishment in flannels as they do in winter clothes. After all, dinner to them is dinner the year round. Miss Thelma E. Berlack, who won the prize; Mrs. Zenaido Anderson-Taylor, Miss Lillian Moseley, Miss Catherine Morinan, Miss Katherine Johnson, Miss Marie Mahood, Mrs. Ruth Handy, Mrs. Louise Jackson-Johnson, Miss Edna Hazelwood, Mrs. Anna Miller and Miss Lois Jones.

The closing dance of the Coral Club was held Saturday evening, June 30, at the Cobinby Club rooms, 200 West 135th street. Officers and members of the club are: Maude Dantolson, president; Imaa Styles, secretary; Gladys McIntosh, treasurer; Dalceda Davis, Lillian Nafel, Dorothy Thomas, Leola Byrd, Cynthia Barnes, Thelma Hart and Elsie Lewis. Art Student Miss Ecmay E. Bowary "Her work is so unusual that the art department of Textile High School is arranging a one-man exhibition for her in the fall at the Studio Guild," is what Miss Eilah Oakley, art director of the school, wrote concerning Miss Eunay M. Bowyar, 155 West 143d street, a graduate of the June post-graduate course. This compliment, however, seems to be the result of action brought about through Miss Bowyar's mother after her daughter had been promised a $150 scholarship by the school and was given only a $50 check at the exercises, and after her name failed to appear in the list of graduates on the official school program. Miss Downey was awarded the Alexander Medal for Art in February, and she won honors for the school in exhibitions at Grand Central Palace, Hotel Astor and from McCall's Magazine. She desires to teach art in the city high schools, although she is having trouble in gaining admittance to Pratt Institute.

I should say that simplicity is the keynote of the hot season table. That is why so many hostesses use glass plates, small clothes or grass mats and fewer applied decorations. These things keep the dinner table cool in appearance and give an air of quiet spaciousness so longed for when the nights are sunlit. The following summer menu will delight the entire family: Radishes Scallions Blueberry Pie Coffee Veal and Pepper Aspic. Remove bones from one and a half pounds of veal.

Here is a secret for swift and quick rejuvenation of the whole body: Sit down in an easy chair and raise your feet higher than your head. Immediately you reverse your organs you unwind and begin to relax, rest and lose that strained, drawn look. Try it! Laundry Hints Ironing: Iron with the threads preferably the length of the material. Embroidery and lace should be propped on the wrong side over an extra pad to make the design stand out. Setting Colors: The following will set colors: Salt water, a cup of salt to one gallon of water. Vinegar water, 1/2 cup of vinegar to one gallon of water. Use soft, tapid water and do not rub with soap. Dry in the shade. Laundering Wool: Use soft water, never rub with soap. Squeeze and knead the wool. Rinse through two tubes of clean water of the same temperature as the suds. Put through a wringer or press with the hands. Shake woollen thoroughly to raise the nap. Dry quickly either at room temperature or out-of-door in a breeze. Do not use a hot iron. Sweaters, scarfs, ote., are washed in the same way. Be careful in washing a sweater not to let the weight of the water stretch it. Gather the material together and hold the hand under it in the water. Stretch it into original shape. Care of Umbrella2 A wet umbrella should be closed and stood with the handle down. This prevents rusting of the point where the rips join, and also prevents stretching of the cloth.

The game was the final game of a four-game series. Cum Pussey and the members of the Homestead Grays refused to accept a decision of Umpire Soskas and walked from the field. The game was delayed for four days, closing the Lincoln three out of the four games. They defeated the Grays in the first game of a doubleheader at Lincoln Gants, Saturday, July 4-3 on Saturday, and Sunday they took both games of the doubleheader. Wintera pitching the Lincoln to victory in the first by a score of 7-1. The second game Sunday began in the first half, with veteran, Joe Williams, doing round duty for the visitors and Gilmore pitching for the Lincoln. Gilmore was knocked out of the box in the sixth inning and Manager Lloyd had to retire of his rookies to finish the contest. In the seventh inning the local team drove Smoky Joe to the showers with four runs and Larry Wills on defense. He had to force, had to finish for Joe. Joe also started against Comme Bector in Saturday's game, but lasted only four innings. Coming into the last inning, Comme Bector stood 11-8 in favor of Pittsburgh. George Scales was first man on and he hit a two-hanger; Mallow followed with a two-hanger, securing Scales. That was the first hot one to the pitcher, who threw to second to get Louis. Beckwith had to almost jump up to catch the ball and Umpire Saxas ruled the player out. Beckwith had his foot off the bag. Earlier in the game, the Pittsburghers had kicked on decisions Lloyd had to hold backwalt and Jap Washington to prevent them from wenting their anger by assaulting Sekas. When he made the second kick, Posey walked off the field and his team followed. Many of the fans were loud in their condemnation of Posey and his team, while friends defended him. But most of the conflation came from those who had but on-the-visitors to win and did not forfeit the money through a forfeited game. The unsponsormanlike conduct of the team has caused all future bookings this year to be canceled. The writing name Winters was a pitcher's duel between Winters and Streeter. Winters pitched great ball allowing his team to win by Streeter. Two double plays by the Lincoln infield and a star catch by Beckwith were also features. HOMESTEAD GRAYS Alfred O. A. E.

COLUMBIA AND FULTON DISTRICTS ROADWAY AND 125TH STREET Phone Units: 7000 --- NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 4, 1928 LINCOLNS COP SERIES FROM POSEY'S TEAM Holder and Robinson Throw Scare Into W. I's The Sportive Spotlight The Sportive Spotlight By THE ED. FOR M. Posey Runa To form No follower of athletics in this part of the world during the past fifteen years will express surprise to learn that our good old friend "Cum" Posey, pilot of the famous Homestead Grays, pulled his team off the field last Sunday at Protective Oval when the got hot got hot. This is nothing new for Cumberland. One of the best basketball players in his time in this broad United Land, Cumberland was one of the worst losers the game over knew, and as leopards cannot change their skins, we saw no reason to expect that "Cum" would be any different in baseball. With an eye to making a better showing this year than last, John Henry Lloyd has strengthened the Lincoln Giants, and a few weeks ago he felt satisfied that the showing of the team against the Homestead Grays was a foregone conclusion when he made his last additions before New York and Pittsburgh clashed in the series. How well the "grand old man" of baseball figured could be seen in the fact that he took the first game against the Grays in Pittsburgh last week, dropping the second, but seizing things up when the battle was brought to the Catholic Protectorial home ground in the first game against the Master Lloyd engineered Posey's defeat by taking the two games, which gave him the best three out of a five-game series. When things looked black for the Grays in the second game at the Oval Sunday, Posey went into the kind of action that forced many of the fans to recall that memorable contest between Pittsburgh and New York at Manhattan Casino. "Bob" Douglas had the Spartan Braves charged up for victory over Posey's team, and when the going became terrific with heat a bold Pittsburgh grabbed the timekeeper's watch and threw the home in an uprare. They did not play fair with their personal scribble representative, the good W. Rollo Wilson, columtist par excellence, for the good doctor has been buying a devil of a time trying to live down the doings of the doctors. Time had not then mellowed Iloïl's brow, and being young, he was one of the most rabid and partisan followers of the fortunes of the over great "Cum" Posey. The coming issue of the Pittsburgh Courier will carry Posey's side of the controversy that made him a missing member of the gathering at the Oval when the uproar started and some of the fans shouted: "Posey, where is Posey? We would have word with him!" In his own personally conducted column of the paper with the only audited circulation in America (whatever that means), Mr. Posey will proceed not only to hew unto high heaven about "what was done to him" last Sunday, but it is dollars to doughnuts that he includes the sports editor of this paper in his hammer swinging event. But New York has again risen against Posey, and the outlook is that diplomatic relations between the Lincoln r. Homestead Grays have been severed for all time. If we had it to do we would arrange another series between the contending factions before the end of the season, for Posey's action last Sunday can be used for a great ballyhoo in the future, if somebody can show him the fight. No "Black Menace" if They Can Prevent It BOOR George Goolfrey, after weathering the many tricks which can be palled during the course of a combat between a black fighter who dares to aspire to even the position of "Black Menace" and a white fighter whom they would rather see trying to put Mr. Tunney on his haunches again, the "Black Shadow of Liperville" was given the works last Wednesday night at Efiboe's Field when the judges, two men so good and true) decided that Johnny Risko had won the decision. Johnny Risko had won the decision. Johnny Risko nod, and but for the fact that we had gone Rollo standing true to the traditions of Mighty Man in hectic times in the past, we would swear that a tear adored those all-seeing eyes when he realized that our predictions of two weeks ago were written because of a true knowledge of the conditions surrounding the milt pushing game in this great commonwealth. The had few the mid-empired white writers of the dallies not supported the contention which we are here making for the edification of the faithful, we would be inclined to go into details, but why clutter up the space when it was so evident after reading the majority of the Ofay papers just what really happened? Risko got himself a tail beating, despite the plan of battle which he outlined, such plan calling for him to be ever crowding the "Black Menace" so that he could not get set to do the work. Goolfrey appealed to Risko to make a fight of the affair, but Johnny Risko had it going to make him depart from them. He also knew that if he was going to make the contest his chances were better for getting the decision than Goolfrey and his six feet was Mr. Risko's aim, all things considered, is quite some stuff in these days. If you doubt it ask all the colored boys trying to make a living in the roped arena. An Enticing Cricket Game Saturday West India Cricket team, which has been raised cricket circles ever since they arrived and will furore as long as they remain in this country, in Island team the coming Saturday afternoon. Old English game, there is something intriguing. The West Indian team is made up of players in the Caribbean Sea, and if you don’t the game asks the leading white British players to stack up against them. In Island team is made up of players from the far and while they, too, are from the Caribbean and different from their English neighbors as French islands to Italy. The Danes had no national landers seemed to like, hence they took to play we glim the records we find that these sane landers came to like, hence some of the best islands. The story of Denali and James Robertsain Brownwell and a most of others went into the islands from the island of St. Thomas, a creation came to these shores they proved that hard had been carefully studied and it was more Danish subjects took the championship in the British boys in this country. above lines you will readily see why this game so much interest.

THE All Star West India Cricket team, which has been raising quite some furore in cricket circles ever since they arrived and will continue to create some furore as long as they remain in this country, will hook up with the Virgin Island team the coming Saturday afternoon. To the lovers of the great old English game, there is something intriguing in this announcement. The West Indian team is made up of players from the British possessions in the Caribbean Sea, and if you doubt that these boys can play the game ask the leading white British players that had the misfortune to stack up against them. The Virgin Island team is made up of players from the former Danish possessions, and while they, too, are from the Caribbean Sea, you will find them as different from their English neighbors as Frenchmen are to Germans, Francais to Indians. The Danes had no national game which the Virgin Islanders seemed to like, hence they took to playing cricket, and now? As we glimp the records we find that these same Virgin Islanders met and defeated some of the best teams from the British Islands. The late Captain Brownwell and a number of other Roberts, Mark Crusan, and corner of the islands from the island of St. Thomas, and opened the pioneer generation game to these shores they proved that the lessons of the old guard had been carefully studied and it was more than once that the former Danish subscribers took the championship in many associations from the British boys in this country. From the above lines you will readily see why this game on Saturday will carry so much interest. Lines will be tightly drawn between the followers of the contesting teams and an extra effort will be put forth by both sides. On form the West Indians should take the game from the Virgin Islanders, but the latter, as pointed out in those columns some months ago, have a natural aptiness for any game in which they engage and the record behind them will spur them on. In St. Thomas they took up baseball when they became Americans, and the Marines and sailors from the warships have been having the devil's own time trying to cope with them.

THE eyes of hundreds of followers of tennis will be centered on Ashbury Park today when the mosquitoes get buoy on their annual tournament, while Bordontown, N. J., and Connecticut will also hold the spotlight. Tennis received its biggest boost among colored people in this country when the little Miss Ray broaden in Jamaica in the British West Indies and set a pace that kept her to the fore far quite a while. Many of the men who played a prominent hand in placing basketball on a high plane in Greater New York had a hand in creating the interest which surrounded the game in those days not so far distant when Miss Ray performed against the best in the land on the courts in Harlem. Washington, although trying hard for yours to come to the fore, did not come into its own until New York made the gesture that brought some of her best players together with what we had to offer in this city, York, Philadelphia.

Did the game boost a larger following it would be within the power of those interested in perhaps induce some of the loading stars to show before colored audiences, but the social atmosphere surrounding the game has precluded any attempt so far to try and induce the white brother and sister to meet us on the courts. With the assistance of our able tennis expert, Mr. Francis, we hope to help to create the interest that will place the game on a higher plane among our people.

In another interesting bout on the saga night, Walk Miller sent his man, Sunny Jim Williams, to the form. Williams managed to get a draw, which colored followers of things pugilistic have come to recognize as a victory when it applies to a colored mitt pusher. Walk Miller must have turned green with envy when he glimpsed that hathrobe around which Ryan had draped the frumo of Tiger Bayne. It was a beauty, with a knight armament, which applauded to an annoyance of the late Theo Flowers which fans immediately recognized and that a knight they gave Pugnus. The brave newspaper wanted to continue despite the evidence of the owl which Monte and hung on him. TENNIS THE New England Open Championship tournament, now under way on the beautiful courts of Yale University, at New Haven, practically unprotected a few years ago by tennis players and fans, beyond those of the New England States, is fast coming to the fore as one of the tennis classes in the American tennis world. This is manifested this year by the number of top ranking men and women players of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania to the seat of activities. The players from New York are based on national singles championship by Bryce A. Saltrh, and include Louis Jones, present New England singles champion; Fred Johnson and James Trautman, doubles champion; Dr. Percy Richardschmidt, Reginald Weir, New York junior profligacy, and a host Among the women will be found Mrs. Wade, New England woman's singles champion; Mrs. Emma Leonard, runner-up for the singles championship last year, and who with Mrs. Wade are the present women's doubles champions: Mrs. Eileen Cenlek, runner-up in the women's doubles last year; Mrs. Susan Macdon, Mrs. Rheoda Smith, Mrs. Frances Gittens, Dr. Mary Jane Watkins, and a few others. New Jersey, we are told, will send a strong delegation that will comprise the World and Granger brothers, J. Mercer, Burrell, L. McWilson, and others, and while we do not know who of the men of Pennsylvania will journey to New Haven, we are told that Miss Lalu Ballard, national woman singles champion, and Miss Ora Washington, who with Miss Ballard hold the national women's doubles championship, will be on the firing line. It is not uncertain that Ted Thompson, national men's singles champion, who is presently donned in New York City while attending Columbia University, will be found among the men, along for the frequency of the New Harvard championship honor. But three days are given to finish the tourney, July 8 and 4, inclusive, which is a pity. In the post this might have been easier, but this year, with a larger entry, and better calibre of players, I sounds to me that this time should have been on contract, consolidated with the New England Tennis Association perhaps did not anticipate such a large and excellent entry, which stakes behind the New England border, but this interest was manifested last year, when New York and New Jersey sent an many of their best players to Massachusetts, Mass., to the 1927 tournament. The large entry this year from New -International News Reel Photo, on, Freshman at the University events in the Sectional Olympic He Won the Broad Jump, Mak- n Also Won the Hop, Skip and York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania is a tribute to the New England Tennis Association's conduct of the journey, which includes the games are played, and the wonderful hospitality of the people of New England. We trust that next year more time will be allotted to the event, so their lives will not be unduly pushed, as they will be this year, necessitating a consequent curtailment of their proficiency. Local Golf Players Made Trip to Lake Mohansic Fourteen golfers of the St. Nicholas Golf Club motored to Lake Mohanak for their monthly tournament last Tuesday. The tournament was difficult Lake Mohanak golf course, was featured by some very fine golf. George Aaron, who had been shooting at par on the first nine, scoring 107, was driving a par 4 hole by driving into the woods and ended up by scoring a big 10.

HOLDER DEADLY WITH THE BALL HOLDER DEADLY WITH THE BALL Dramatic End to Contest Between Visiting West Indians and Locals one of the most dramatic finishes to a rocket game ever seen in this country occurred at Starlight Park Sunday when the touring West Indian just managed to beat the West Indian team of New York by 23 runs in the seventh game of their "our," winning 6-1. The team kept the scores low, and the New Yorkers, who batted first, could only put together 67 runs. The tourists found the bowling of "Kid" Lewis and Ivan Holder very difficult to score, but scored one on each of 51. E. L. Ward added some useful runs, but a change in the howling nearly shattered the invaders' hopes of victory, for Holder and John Robinson dismissed the next three men made their score 66 for nine wickets. With one run needed to tie, and one more needed to win, Capt. Gilkes faced Holder. Holder's first ball to Gilkes missed the stump by a whisker, and the next time they tried run.

U. brand and will be jumping out are held in the Harvard Stadium, Recently Hubbard trained under the supervision of Hoad Coach Lawson Robertson of the American Olympic team and the Cinchmint Negro was suffering from handgrip. Hubbard was able to clear 25 feet by jumping of his left foot, which was additional proof that his equal jump has been seen as a broad jump. One my ankle doesn't prevent me from going to Amsterdam, says Hubbard, "but if it does I think that Ed. Hamn will bring back the Olympic championship to America. Hamn's record best jump was not smooth last year, while his fouls was not smooth last year, that fault must have been corrected." No jumper in the history of American competition has spreadreaded the field like Hubbard. He first won the national title in 1922 with a leap of 10 feet and a jump was 25 feet 8 inches — now National A. A. U. record. The National A. A. U. championships are being combined with the Olympic final troyals this year, and Hubbard beats levine to win with the title for both events, with conduct to be the one he concedes Hamun to be a dangerous opponent. Hubbard has run the 100-yard dash four times in 8.45 seconds, the accepted world record for the distance, but beaten unable to record a time. He can be unable to train for it of late and has no idea how fast he could run the "century" at this time. Asked if the Olympic meet would be his final fling in athletics, he replied a "No" to the question. "I am 72 years old. When my ankle returns to normality I will be better than ever." Hubbard was born in Cincinnati Nov 25, 1903, and is now employed as a coach at the University of Pittsburgh and his birth. He won the broad jump at the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris and the following year he jumped 25 feet 10% inches (1.58 m.) for a world record. Jared ankle improves he may try the hop, step and jump as well as the broad jump at the Harvard Stadium next week, but in any event he will figure out how to improve. "I have the requisites necessary to break the world's record of 50 feet 11-6 inches for the hop, step and jump, says Hubbard, "and will withstand the most of the competition. I have never concentration on the event before and have done more with it this year than ever before." I am of surprising interest to record that Hubbard has cleared 25 feet 45 times in his phantomical career.

GIANTS LOSE TO P'KWAY The Bay Parkway Club triumph in both ends of a twin bill at Erasmus Field on Sunday, winning from the Philadelphia Colored Giants by a score of 10 to 3 and the House of David by 6 to 2. Clever pitching by Herb Steen, slender southpaw, hold the bewkish-representatives of the Benton for eight innings in the second game. Steen allowed the visitors nine hits and held the shaveless players runless for eight innings. Russ Klinze, in the mound for the House of David, for the third game. Johnny Lehman, making his debut at third base for the Parkways, cleared the rightfield wall with a four-hit in the third timing drilled by the bishop in the seventh as many times at bat in the opener. Marty Schepps, also making his bow in a Parkway uniform, hit a timely triple in the twilight tussle and ended a world of speed on the base paths. The Parkways scored their first run in the second timing on Schepps's double and Wally Morgan's double. Lehman chipped ball over the fence in the next frame. A four-run rally in the eight innings brought it up for the Parkways, and the Schoeps and a throw from the outfield that caromed off third base gave Manager George Lippie's boys the two of these four runs. A batsman in his hits gave the House of David two runs in the ninth. Hirges, second baseman of the team, invaded and fielding runt of the game, going behind second base to make a one-hand catch of a liner that came from Schoeps's hand. The game was perched on third in the fifth inning. Kenny, House of David first baseman, covered the gullack dressed as a clown and his justice greatly increased. The first game was a walkaway for the Parkways, being called after the Phillip Giants had taken their third base. The team got to Tilchner Charley Bradford for five safeties and took advantage of five misplays, while Ed Tardios held the visitors to five thumps. FIRST GAME PHILA, COLORED MANTS AB, R, H, O, A.

After resting for an hour in a half, they take the floor for their last tap at 9 p. m., and dance without rest for a period of six hours until 3 a. m., at which time they are allowed to patre for the night.

Sunshine Sammy of "Our Gang" fame and a pal of his, Charlie Williams, also contributed to the program, the first with a minor edition of "Bolangles" plita-pat dancing and the other with a song or two. The foxy "Bojangles" also sold the wedding cake at a dollar a slice to help to swell the moneys that were then being showered from the galleries.

Columbia Conservatory of Music Courses In All Breaths St. Nick Club in Monthly Tournament at Pelham The St. Nicholas Golf Club of New York City will hold their monthly tournament July 13 on the Pelham Bay golf course. This tournament, which is closed to members of the club, will consist of 36 holes medal play. Play will begin at 8 a.m. In the Inter-club match with the Fairview Golf Club of Philadelphia, which will be held on the Cobbs Greek golf course in Philadelphia July 15. The St. Nicholas Club will be represented by the following players: George Aaron, Thomas Person, Charles Tatum, Burrus Priggs, James Metoty, Elmer Breut, Charles Lewis, Rosseau Harvey, Charles Leonard Charles Charles --- The rules by which the dancers must abide have also been made for each dancer must have her partner and they both keep step with the rhythm of the music. There was quite a lot of grumbling when the new dancer went into effect Monday morning, but now except in the morning when John Smith's orchestra forces them to dance at a whirlwind pace, they have become accustomed to the change and there is less bothering to the heard. Only four out of the original twenty-four couples that started the duration still remain on the floor. They are 7, 8, 12 and 16. Those four couples, however, are of the highest stock, and are all seeming capable of dancing on indefinitely. Nevertheless, it is believed that the first pair at which they dance at night during the six hours that they are accompanied by the orchestra will eventually wear out the marathoners and the general belief is that the record of the contest is not far away maybe tonight or tomorrow. The biggest aspect of the contest was the dropping out of the No. 1 team Tom Bush and Josephine Jefferson, captains of Pittsburgh, who had ruled the favorites throughout the contest. Tom, it was re-recoded, had won a big slice of some extra prize money distributed to all the contestants who were still dancing at the end of four hours. He had celebrated a woe but too much and was made to answer the bell after one of the two people Sunday afternoon had was disqualified. Josephine almost died when her part was tailed to appear, and the team qualified in come over her that all its sufferings had been in vain. Even the preparations for the wedding are unique. Thursday afternoon the bridegroom and his bride, the sister Aurelia Hallback, accompanied the popular George Snowdon and the marie Purnell, team No. 7, were on board on a decorated truck and they jigged to the accompaniment of a three-piece orchestra all the way to City Hall to sit their theatre, and back again to the Manhattan Casino. Joseph the captious showers of the meeting a crowd of approximately 100 persons gathered at the Casino the following night to witness the entire marriage. At precisely ten o'clock after midnight, the Rev. H. J. Johnson, said to be the associate minister of Bethlehem M. Church, walked out into the center of the floor and the cheers and applause of the spectators, mostly whites. Then followed the seven couples who were still in the contest that evening, each bearing a bouquet of rose, presented by the Harlem Howler Shaw Mill Blinders. Robinson, popular dancer of Law Lessin, Blinders' show, brought up the rear with the bells. It was he who gave her in marriage. The bride herself was radiantly dressed in a beautiful wedding gown given her by the Morgan Costume Company 2112 West Wash street.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN The Main Question When a man decides to pick a woman for a sweetheart or wife, he tries to ascertain, above all else, "I am trust her! Does she cheat? Has she a sense of honor? Has shen't have to be a beauty. She doesn't have to be all brains. She doesn't have to have money. She must, however, impress him as being trustworthy. A man can forgive many sins in the woman he loves, but when she cheats on him he seldom forgives and never forgets. Her advice is that, if you've got a good credit, she might right. You may cheat for it while and get away with it, but sooner or later you'll get caught up with and, he love me, sister, you'll find the old adage true: "The sins you do, two by two. You must pay for, one by one." Don't think you're clever when you do little, mean, trick acts. You're simply destroying yourself and sowing seeds that must be reaped. Dear Ernest Ann: I love a girl, but I can't trust her. She says that she loves me and yet she goes out with others. Do you think she really cares? Is it advisa to marry someone whom you can't trust? Dear Friend: Unless you can trust the person you love you should never marry it is essential to happiness. If the young woman is engaged to you, she should not go out with others with out your consent. If you are not engaged and she does not know whether your intentions are serious, she has the right to go with others if she does. When folks are in love with one another, they are satisfied with each other's company. Don't sign up for life with any woman unless you feel that she play fair. There's altogether too much of this cheating business and soon the cheater will realize that he or she is only cheating him off of real happiness.

Standard Oil Company Employes Negroes in Ind. The Standard Oil Company of Indiana has recently instituted the policy of employing Negroes in its gas filling stations. This company operates in a section of the middle Mississippi River, a hard number, Detroit, Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City are so situated, and in each one of these cities, with the probable exception of Detroit, Negroes are employed. In Chicago they are in exclusive charge of two filling stations; in St. Louis one; and in Illinois monkeys one. They are also operating Springfield, Illinois and Kansas City, Missouri. They are also operating four greasing stations in Chicago. These jobs are the result of an appeal to Colonel Robert W. Stewart, president of the company, by the National Urban League through its industrial Relations Department some years ago. The League under the company's successful operation of its only station then manned by Negroes to prove that the use of Negroes would not cause a decrease in business; but on the contrary would stimulate business from Negroes. In the case of this station the general physical appearance so improved under Negro attendants was that it is one of the best in St. Louis. Prizes have been awarded to it for external appearance and volume of business. Medical Officer HereFrom Bahamas Dr. E. Stafford Greaves on Six-Month Leave of Dr. E. Stafford Greaves, for the past four years a Government medical officer in the Bahama Islands, is here on a six months' leave of absence. Mrs. Greaves and their three-year-old son Edward are also here. They reside at 58 West 129th street. Dr. Greaves asserts that the Bahama Islands have a population of 60,000, the majority of whom are colored; that most of these women are scientific farmers and raise on an extensive scale such products as potatoes, peas, sugar cane and citrus fruit, and there is one planter, he said, who grows annually over 80,000 acres of tomatoes. There are two newspapers on the islands, and the one with the largest circulation is owned and publishes Negrans, Messas, Etienne and Gloire dominations. The islands, being under Indian dominions, are therefore, ruled by a Governor appointed from England. "There is also a Legislative Council and a House of Assembly, both of which have colored members, but the Executive Council, which is somewhat like a President's Cabinet, is composed completely of men." At the present time, he said in conclusion, "the islands are experiencing a Government crisis. So far, the House of Assembly has been the only body with enough authority to authorize expenditures and to impose taxation; but recently the Legislative Council tried to make this authority and brought about the Governor to dissolve the House of Assembly pending the next general election." Making Survey of Harlem Enterprises C. Benjamin Curley, well known throughout the country as a student of economics, and Macao Smith, a recent graduate of the New York University Business School, are making a survey of Negro business in Harlem under the direction of the New York branch of the National Negro Business League.

Theodore Mormon Gardiner, suffragan bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in Liberia, is now in this city awaiting a opening of the Protestant Episcopal convention to be held in Washington, D. C., in October. He is residing temporarily at 209 West 137th street. "The progress of Christian work in Africa, and especially in Liberia—educational, spiritual and otherwise—is highly gratifying," he said when interviewed. "The only barrier to the work is Mohammedanism, but we are relying on the young men and young women graduated from our mission schools to play an important role in converting the devotees of this religion." Bishop Gardiner concurred in the belief of his church that Africa can no longer be called "the Dark Continent." He holds that it is a continent grossly misunderstood by the rest of the world, and grows rapidly in knowledge and the arts of living. The Protestant Episcopal Church he said, is the second largest sponsor of educational work among the natives. In Liberia the government maintains fifty-six schools, the Protestant Church maintains a forty-five, the Methodists support states and the Anglicans support in. In addition the Anglican thirty-three schools maintained by the Roman Catholics and other churches. Women in Africa, he declared, enjoy no liberties whatever except in cases where they are members of the tribes that have been converted to Christianity. There are over 300,000 children in Liberia who have never seen the inside of a house, he stated, and there are more than thirty tribes in the hinterland, each with a different language—a total of 1,500,000 *als* who are still in the throats of stark paganism.

A few days before the date of the broadcast, however, an official of the asylum got in touch with the director of the children's program and they very difficult matter. It seemed that that aspects of the ten young broadcasters become unduly exuberant when they were returning to the asylum after taking part in a radio program. The team brought them to laughter. The official of the asylum, after much punishment, hit upon what seemed the appropriate punishment. When the situation had been explained, the program director at the NBC granted permission to cancel the engagement. It was repeated later from the asylum that the punishment of being from going on the air had beaten significantly successful. Ten little Negro orphans now are models of behavior.

A splendid collation was served by the hostess. Covers were laid for thirty-two. The officers of the choir are W. Arthur Pollock, president; Mrs. Marie Fields, the president; Mrs. Wood, the recording secretary; Mrs. Lucy Smith, treasurer; William Brown, chapman, and Jerry Mitchell, chapman.

TIM MOORE and Cinnity Others FAMOUS PLANTATION ORCHESTRA 400 GOOD SEATS $1.00 TEN England Bars Alberta Hunter England Bars Alberta Hunter Authorities Refused to Extend Labor Permit of Well Known Actress An exclusive despatch to The Amsterdam News brings the information that Miss Alberta Hunter has been refused an appointment of time to length in England by the Minister of Labor. Miss Hunter recently closed with "Showboat," after it was decided to dispense with her services to place someone in the part which she took at a cheaper rate. Coming into prominence as a member of the cast of the original "How Come" company, Miss Hunter made quite a hit here shortly after her arrival from Chicago. As an entertainer she soon much in demand and also turned out some of the best records. Some time ago she went to Europe and after looking the field over decided to remain a while. She met with success everywhere she appeared and in her spare time wrote some very interesting comments for readers of The Amsterdam News of her impressions of the people and the places she had been. When it was decided to put a "Showboat" company in London she was among the first to be selected and she has done remarkably well to the part assigned her. She will leave Europe next Wednesday on the De Soleil Free for the United States she has contracts calling for the recording of a number of late songs. Miss Hunter is appointed in the action taken by the Minister of Labor, as she had hoped to remain in England for a while longer. Eddie Hunter as an Amateur Press Photographer THE companies of no fewer than four touring stage productions were involved in what might have been a very serious railway accident last week. The train containing the stage folk was between New Street Station, Birmingham, and Water Orton at the time of the mishap. The two companies touring in "Is Zat Sot" "On Wings," "The Student Prince" and "Black Birds," which comes to the Birmingham Hippodrome this week. The baggage car of the "Is Zat Sot" company jumped the rails, breaking the connection between "Is" and "Black Birds," owing to the slow speed at which the train was traveling at the time and the driver's commendable presence of mind, nobody was surt. Those traveling in the coaches involved received a shaking and there was a slight panic among the women travelers. The train eventually continued on its way in Sheffield two and a half hours later. A surprising feature of the mishap was that it served to reveal Eddie Hunter, the "Black Bird" talented American star, as an expert amateur press photographer. Eddie jumped from his compartment with his little pocket camera and got some pictures, but some were taken while, when they were enlarged, were reproduced effectively in a number of leading papers. Mystery Play and Revue Keep Patrons Pleased *Creepy mystery is the basis of the detective play at the Alhambra this week, "The Tiger's Claw." There's the district attorney, played with authority by Edward Thompson; the chief of detectives, by Arthur T. Ray, a man of the world, by Ted Blackman; an underworld boy by the writer; a sociology girl, by Fannie Laine; a woman of a dubious past, by Susie Sutton. The Tiger's Claw is actually made manifest in most mysterious manner—and an unknown prowler appears and terrorizes all until he finally unmasks and proves to be an avenger, in the person of J. Lawrence Criner. "Eliza's Wedding Day" is the equestrian event for a long time, as done at Alhambra on April 11, the bashful "ride" is played by Amanda Randolph in a gorgeous comedy vol. George Whitshire and Sandy Burns are the rival swains, and it's first one and then the other until the final moment when the person ties the knots Russell Lee and Daisy Wright greet Pa and Ma Milliapp, parents of the coy Eliza. Everybody joins in the great wedding parade. Edna Taylor is a newcomer, and her singing and dancing, sometimes alone and sometimes with the six-toned hambra Girls, captured the audience. The "Raug Tung" girls, Mae Barnes and Lavina Mack, made a delightful impression. Those girls have real personality. THEATRE MANAGERS FORM ORGANIZATION Alberta Hunter Refused British Labor Permit Theatre Owners in Convention Frank Schiffman of Lafayette Headed Committee Drawing Up Plans Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty, Dramatic Editor, New York Amsterdam News, New York City, My dear Mr. Dougherty: This letter is being sent to you because of the keen interest which you have always taken in the welfare of Negro performers. On the 20th of June there was held in the City of Pittsburgh, Penn., a convention of owners and managers of the theatres with colored patronage. This meeting was not widely advertised and the public was not generally advised of the event. The beginning of a better and happier era for all who are interested in the show business. The meeting was attended by approximately twenty men, representing the theatres through the entire Eastern and Mid-western sections of the country. It was presided over by Rooker T. Washington Theatre in St. Louis, Missouri, and President of the Theatre Owners' Holding Association. Mr. S. H. Dudley, Mr. Sam Reevin (owner of a group of theatres in Tennessee), Mr. Horowitz of the Globe Theatre in Cleveland, Mr. Engelberg of the Emory Theatre in Pittsburgh, Mr. State of Memphis, Mr. Lester of Philadelphia, Mr. Klein of Chicago, and other representative theatre owners attended. The author was honored by being chief chairman of a subcommittee to draw up plans, which were directly accepted by all the members present. Therefore, these plans call for the production, in at least eight different cities of the country of high class, well costumed, well-constructed musical "tabs" which will be routed through at least fifteen of the best theatres represented by the owners present; and at a cost which will not only assure prompt and complete payment of all expenses and traveling expenses, but which will leave some profit to the producer of the fifteen theatres in question agreed to accept without any percentage compensation and with the knowledge beforehand that unless this improved type of show that an enthusiast effect in improving their business all losses involved would be born by the theatre. There has, as you know, been talk of such an arrangement like this for years. Some of our "hard-bolled" showmen have always talked about how impossible it was to make such an arrangement and that it am not thoroughly prepared to contend for them, but I believe and I hope that they are wrong. Most of the theatres represented at the convention are in the grip of an unprecedented depression in business. According to figures submitted to me, their business has dropped from thirty per cent per cent during the last two years. Under the plans which my committees presented to them, and which they accepted, some of these theatre owners are committed to pay more for shows than they are at present taking in at the box office. But they all yielded to the argument that an improved type of theatre would never have the fear of hunger clutching at their hearts would inevitably improve their business, and probably bring their receipts up to the amount which they enjoyed when general business conditions were more satisfactory than they are today. It will, of course, be some time before the production activities will begin in New York and Chicago immediately. If the plans made by the committee materialize, it will undoubtedly be the best and most hopeful step which has been made in many years toward the general improvement of our business, and the resistant improvement in the condition of our performers. Very cordially yours, FRANK S. HUFFMAN. FOLLIES OF PARIS AT LAFAYETTE NEXT WEEK Following closely along the lines of last year's show at the Folli es Pierce in Paris, Chronec Robinson will present his "Follies of Paris" at the Lafayette Theatre next week. The show is said to be booked to embark for Europe on July 25. Maud Russell, Baby Cox, Eddie Gleason, Ukulele Bob Williams, Billie Yarbore, Doe Doe Green, Johnny Visual Sound and Good, Low Keece Bushshelle, Monte Carlo Band are among the featured players of this musical comedy. The feature photoplay to be pre presented with "Follies of Paris" will be Ellinor Glyn's "The Mad Hour." The Revue and Drama Next Week at Alhambra Rex Bench wrote the stirring book, "The Spoilers" doubling frankly with the gold-hustle days in Alaska. The book was afterward mode into a play of tremendous strength. Next week, beginning Monday, the Alhambam Players will present this vigorous Rex Bench play. There is a tremendous fight in "The Spoilers" at the climax of the action. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 4, 1928 Entertainers in Europe Alberta Hunter and Others Out of "Showboat" — Another Misleading Article in Chicago Paper — Other Items of Interest By IVAN H. BROWNING London Correspondent, Amsterdam News Have just read your article we have recently received and I have also states that the most good news to us over this way and a big way. It gives us a new opportunity to show that Miller & Lyle, Sissie & Blake, wonderful it would be if a "Shuffle" as well have happened, because it ever was, but believe me, we savoirs and stick together in order theatrically, and until this is done and do just as the Ofay demands.

Miss Anderson was presented by Billet, and sang a group of Roger Quilter with composer, and his songs are the very Miss Anderson singing for some of the most exciting being returning to America, where she opens her October. America can well be proud of the Ober Jr. the well-known American tenor, gambore Hall recently, and there is no doubt as concert field. A packed house greeted us before. His voice showed that he has been side over a year ago. Besides singing a sitting Hill, he has done a great deal of again by the well-known concert agent Robert Robson, the American Negroes are curved in the concert world in Europe. These three Have just read your article with reference to the new "Blackbirds of 1925" and I have recently received an interesting letter from the popular Miss Aina Ward, who also states that the new revue is going very strong. This is indeed good news to us over this way and I sincerely hope it will continue to draw in a big way. It gives our performers work in the best way, and Lew Leslie is due much credit in his ambition to establish a yearly revue. Of course, it is a thing that Miller & Lyle, Sislea & Blake should have done with "Shuffle Along." How wonderful it would be if a "Shuffle Along of 1928" was running new. It could just as well have happened, because the Negro talent is just as much in demand as it ever was, but, believe me, we lack in our race Negroes who will make every saveries and stick together in order to build and do things in the proper way theatrically, and until this is done I'm afraid we will have to work and do just as the Oray demands. I expected on my own to England to Nobile Sislea unusually busy making final plans for a big production in England, but instead, regardless of his wonders personally at this time, he is very discouraged and for the time that has given up the idea of doing a show on this slide and, like most of our producers, he is not able to find a way to do something that will keep the Negro performer's popularity in the limelight in a big way, as far as production is concerned. On the other hand, the demand from a public standpoint is greater than ever before for a real Negro production. There are already rumors around that Leslie contemplates bringing his new "Blackbirds" to England, and I am sure they will find a great welcome waiting them in London should they come ever. "Showboat" at Drury Lane is a tremendous success, and mostly due to the popularity of Miss Edith Day, Paul Robson and Miss Alberta Hunter and the clever American colored dancing girls. The colored talent in the production simply carry away all the honors, and this is especially true in the case of Mr. Robson and the colored dancing girls. The audiences cannot get enough of the colored artists and plainly show it after each of their numbers and when they are on the stage. It looks like a long run for "Showboat," regardless of the English not caring at all about the story of the show. Robson's singing of "Ole Man River" makes them forget everything. Speedy Wilson, an American Negro with the English Mary Dugan Co., is a very big success with the show at the Queen's Theatre. Although he has a small part, it is the unusual way in which he talks and acts that has caused everyone to comment on his work. Will Garland and his Brownbird Co. are packing them in at the different outlying theaters around London. From all reports, it is a very good revue indeed and Mr. Garland plans a new revue this coming season. Scott & Whitley, with their all-white revue, are playing in the North of England and, as usual, having fine success. Here are two American Negroes who for years have been going along in a most successful way and are firmly established over here. "Snowball," the clever little American lad, is a real hit in C. C. Cochran's Revue at the London Pavilion. The popular Leslie Hutchinson is always a big favorite with Cochran's latest revue, specializing as usual on the piano with his so-different playing. He is also a tremendous success at the exclusive Uncle's Club. Noble Siesta and his clever pianist, Harry Revel, have left for Paris, where they will entertain at several exclusive露台 during the next nighttown. Siesta returns to England afterwards, where he will fill contracts with the new G. T. C. Cinema Co. until summer. Miss Zadie Jackson, the popular little American actress, who starred in "Tang Tang" in New York, is appearing in London at the well-known Piececulty Club. Miss Jackson is meeting with success on this side, having recently appeared in the South of France before coming to London. Layton & Johnstone, entertainers par excellence, are giving a recital at the fine Suite Plevel Concert Hall in Paris June 19. The American boys are as popular as ever on this side. Miss Marion Anderson, charming in every way, gave her first public recital at Wigmore Hall Friday. She has simply stamped herself as one of the greatest contrives neared in recent years. Miss Anderson has been studying in London for the past year and her success is always assured, from an artistio viewpoint, wherever she may appear. Miss Anderson was presented by the noted concert managers, Babs & Tillett, and sang a group of Roger Quilter numbers. Mr. Quilter is the noted English composer, and his songs are among the very finest. He has been a regular at the English society, singing for some of the most exclusive members of English society since being in London. She will give several more recitals on this side before returning to America, where she opens her concert season at Philadelphia in October. America can well be proud of this young and quite unusual artist. George R. Garner Jr., the well-known American tenor, gave a very successful song recital at Wimborne Hall recently, and there is no doubt about the popularity of Mr. Garner in the concert field. A packed house greeted him, and his sang as he has never sung before. His voice showed that he has been working hard since his arrival on this side over a year ago. He delighted singing at the big Christian Science Church, Nottingham Hll. he has done a great deal of drawing room work. He will be presented again by the well-known concert agent, Jamel Powell. His voice is so powerful that he can be heard in the recital of Paul Robeson, the American Negroes are certainly holding their own in a big way in the concert world in Europe. These three artists are quite popular in London. Borra Hunter and the Twelve American Wives Who Performed Before the King and England at Drury Lane, London. Supplier bunch of young ladies in the world in girl who are appearing in "Showbowl". Hobson, Miss Alberta Hunter and on occasion in England. In performance of "Showbowl".

Seymour I. 17 Walt Paul Robeson, Alberta Hunter and the Twelve American Dancing Gifts Were Among Those Who Performed Before the King and Queen of England at Drury Lane, London. There isn't a happier bunch of young ladies in the world at this time than the twelve American girls who are appearing in "Showboat" at the noted Durry Lane Theatre, Mr. Robeson, Miss Alberta Hunter and others are also very well known for their performance before teaching. Casey England, who attended a performance of "Showboat" Friday evening, it was a great night for everyone, and I am sure the thrill that the Americans got in appearing before royalty is one that they will long remember. This is especially true of Miss Hunter, who is all smiles and most delighted with this unusual honor. While on this subway I might say that King George and Queen Mary really attended the performance of "Showboat", which calls to my mind a real fake article published recently in the Chicago Defender in regards to George K. Harrer. He has been cheered by the crowned head of England at an affair, and the Defender should print advertising of this type. Whoever sent this in to the Defender should analogize to its readers, since this splendid paper is read all over the world, and especially in England, where they are very careful about what they say about the royal family. As I have said before, Mr. Garner is enjoying in a success here and we all rejoice in his success. On the other hand, also articles will not help him any. The Hon. Marcey Garvey hosted at the big Albert Hall recently to a very very small audience and has also lectured in the famous Hey Park, London. There isn't a great deal of interest being shown in England at this time in Mr. Garvey. John S. Crabb, the well-known bassist, who for years traveled with the famous William Jubilee Sings but of late has been a member of the Four Harmony Kings, called Saturday on the Bergenaria for America. Mr. Crabb, as everyone knows, is a charming gentleman and did much towards the success of the Harmony Kings in the past three years, during their stay in Europe. We regret his leaving and wish him every success possible. After a short visit in New York he will join his wife at Washington, D. C. The twelve American colored dancing girls in "Showboat" at Drury Lane have just had a fine offer to appear in the big Uga Palafal Reyes at Berlin. It is the same revue which opened most successfully with Johann Hudgins, Sam Wooding's Orchestra, Groomlee & Drapton and Edith Wilson. John C. Paxne, popular singer, gentleman and host, gave a farewell party Sunday evening for Dr. and Mrs. Triche of Chicago. They have been in London for the last year, the doctor studying at the London Medical College while Mrs. Triche has been taking an advanced plane course with a London teacher. Miss Alberta Hunter, 17 Regents Park Road, N. W. Dear Miss Alberta Hunter: I want to say to you I have no criticism whatever to make in regard to your performance in our show. On the contrary I think it is an admirable one in every way.

Greanlee and Dreyton scored heavily and are by far favorites in German and they have wired with a sting and Edith Wilson scored well, singing songs half in English and German. The revue is in need of more dancing girls and they have wired to Paris and London for same. As time goes on the revue will naturally get better and will be one of the biggest hits seen in Berlin for a long time. Leon Abbey and his clever orchestra are still in Berlin, contrary to the propaganda put out by one of his own bandman who recently left for New York carrying the false news that the German authorities had deported Abbey and his band. Abbey and his boys have been a wonderful success ever since being in Berlin and have offers to return this coming season, after they have finished at the Casino de Toulouse, in the South of France, where they open July 1, to play until October 1. The famous Flisk Jubilee Singers are booked at the big Coliseum, Variety Hall, London, next week and are due to remain a fortnight. Kent & Berrice, the American dancers, with Barretto, the clever pianist, are due in England this week and will open at the Empire Theatre, Birmingham, next week. They have just finished a tour of Southern France and were a big success in Paris this winter. They are clever dancers of the young variety and should do well in England. Cheerio, Romeo. Will drop you a line from Dublin, Ireland, where we open next week—Theatre Royal. Best wishes. Leonard Harper Started Celebration at Lafayette In the spirit of today's holiday, Leonard Harper calls his new hit now at the Lafayette Theatre "Fireworks of 1928." It is a very appropriate title, for from beginning to end the harper's new revue is a fast, spiky, colorful, harmonic and laughter. Charlie Johnson's famous Paradise land renders the music for the revue—both from the stage and from the "pit." Since its last appearance at the Lafayette and since it won the band contest at the Savoy Ballroom, Johnson's fourteen masterworks are called the reputation of being one of the finest bands organized. "Fireworks of 1928" boasts of a most unusual cast: Willie Jackson, Jackie Mabley, Ernest Whitman, Marie Preval, Harriet Calloway, Doris Rhuehotton, The Black Dot, Johnny Woods and Little Henry and other celebrities. Working singly, in teams, in trios and with the anime-watchers and girls on an evening's entertainment, whiten can hardly be improved. Then, as a special added attraction, Harper is presenting Canada Lee and Jimmie Moore, two of the finest and clearest fighters in the ring, in an especially staged comedy and fighting sketch. Lee and Moore received a most hearty welcome and the audience enjoyed the novelty of seeing professional boxers play and sing and then go into the ring for four rounds of spirited boxing. Fireworks also choreographed for fourteen girls. Two of their numbers—"The Big Parade" and "Desperate Blues"—brought storms of applause from the audience. For sheer snap, jollity and beauty, "Fireworks" is one of the best of Harper's revues and the finest soon at the Lafayette Theatre in months. The fonture picture for the week is "The Night Flyer," starring William Boyd. This is a stirring railroad melodrama, packed with thrills and laughter. Doth stage and screen shows at the Lafayette Theatre this week are real hits. Drama at Bethel Friday There will be a drama, "The Dream of Queen Father," presented at Bethel A. M. E.

Scout Editor Interviews "Sunshine Sammy" "I think the Boy Scouts are wonderful," said Sunshine Sammy when interviewed in his dressing-room at Loww's State Theatre. "I also think that the drum and bugle corps that met me was wonderful. I did not expect such a big welcome as I received. I am a Boy Scout myself. I belong to a troop in Washington that is named after me. No, I do not know if I may go back into the movies. I have been in the movies since I was 2 years old and I have been on the stage four years." Sunshine is a boy worth interviewing. His real name is Ernest Morrison and he is 16 years old. His home is in Los Angeles, Cal. I also found in the dressing-room his brother, Willie, a lovely fellow; his father, and his teacher. Sunshine wore that famous brown suit in which he was welcomed. He is very fond of charles, I see. Sunshine is receiving a high school course, by correspondence and with the aid of Miss Ada Addison, from the Calvert School of Maryland.

It retains the heat, saves fuel and prevents articles from burning. If your food is too salty, place a wet cloth over the top of the vessel in which the food is cooking. The steam will draw the salt into the cloth. To test the quality of coffee is to put a spoonful in a glass of cold water and add a few drops of lemon juice. If the coffee is pure, it will remain on top of the water; if it is not, the water will become brown in color.

The number three was arrived at from the gifts being three. "Gold, frankincense and myrrh."

ALABAMA STOPS LEASING OF CONVICTS FLATTOP, Ala., July 2—Eight hundred colored convicts completed their last "task" under the Alabama convict lease system, a practice of more than twenty years' standing, Saturday. This "relie of barbarism" came to a close after a fight which lasted for thirteen years. It was in 1915 that first agitation against selling the services of convicts of the State to private interests was started. Governor Bibb Graves promised that convict leasing would end with his inauguration. With the aid of the Legislature the Governor's plan was written into law and all white prisoners were put on State highway projects and on State farms last June. Five hundred of the prisoners taken from the coal mines here and at Aldrich mines were transferred to the State's model prison farm in Escambia County.

HELP WANTED HOMES APARTMENTS Y Arrows Some Love Questions WITH undisciplined cynicism a young woman asked, "Is there in the world today any real, true, pure, honest-to-godness love?" While it must be admitted that there is some basis for cynicism, that there is abundant evidence that love is not extinct, just as physical life is not extinct, from the point without the love there he social disintegration and social chaos without love. Without the light of love we would forever wander in the darkness; without the tie of love to bind, society would be hopelessly wroked, without the stimulus of love we would faint beneath their skins without the imagination of love the best in human thought and the action would be impossible. 19 There Such a Thing as Perhaps so, but it is seriously doubtful. Most persons have been debiled into believing that there is a love, without sex attentiveness and sex simplicity, but likewise such many instances, such many awards, to the presence of this indelible, subtle element, Sex Love a Sin? Writing it in capitals, bold-face and underscored, the answer is NO. Sex love is the chief element of the human race alive, keeping the human race alive, would want to marry a woman and have her to be the mother of his children, if he did not love her? What woman would want to assume the arduous duties of wife and mother for a man who no love. The most lovely love is of God, God is a part of God's own plan, this same God would be incessant, his test to blame or punish for the existence of the element for which He is responsible. But God has provided a right way for expression and enjoyment of love, and to depart from this Is it a Sin to Love a Married Man? if course not, nor to love a married woman, so far as that is concerned. There is no com- mandment against this, but there is a positive commandment which is to love a married neighbor, man or woman, is still a neighbor. There is also a commandment Senate Committee to Begin Hearings Monday WASHINGTON, D. C. July 22 The subcommittee of the Senate committee on post offices and post roads will begin its hearings in the Senate investigation of the alleged sales of Federal patronage on July 1.

Wherever possible Trade With Stores in Harlem That Do Not Practice Discrimination in the Selection of Their Employees. "WHEN THE DEVIL WAS SICK" (CONTINUED FROM FRONT PAGE) that if the tariff were cut down they would suffer as much as anyone else from the consequent disruption of business. Before the Civil War the Southern Democrats had a reason for opposing a high tariff—the possession of slave labor gave them a commercial advantage under a low tariff or no tariff at all. That reason is gone now, but for the last fifty years they have been calling for a low tariff or free trade and trembling for fear they would get it. THE HOUSTON PLATFORM dwells upon Republican corruption, as if the sins of the Republicans were the virtues of the Democrats. But in certain cities the Democrats have a record of corruption that any party would find it hard to equal. ALL THIS ANCIENT HOKUM was trotted out at Houston, but it was child's play compared to the monumental hypocrisy of the Dry Plank. This plank, after the usual stab at the Republicans, says: "Speaking for the National Democracy, this convention pledges the party and its nominees to an honest effort to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment and all other provisions of the Federal Constitution and all laws enacted pursuant thereto." IN OTHER WORDS, the Democratic party pledges itself to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments! In view of the published statements of Senators Glass and George and other prominent figures of the convention that the South was violating the spirit of the amendments and would continue to violate it, this plank deserves the medal for hypocrisy. The second prize should be awarded for the segregation of Negro spectators in the convention hall, and the third prize for the lynching which ushered in the convention. THE PLEDGE to enforce the Prohibition amendment is backed by Southern sentiment, but how can it be taken at its face value when the nominee of the party is an avowed opponent of the Prohibition amendment? Alfred E. Smith's views on Prohibition are no secret; he has stated them again and again in unmistakable language. How can a party expect coherence and public confidence when it goes into action with a Dry platform and a Wet candidate? THE CALIBRE OF ALFRED E. SMITH has been thrown into bold relief by his acceptance of this platform. He has always been acclaimed by his admirers as a man of great moral force and sincerity, with the full courage of his convictions. But when a platform was offered him directly opposing his pronounced convictions he accepted it. Instead of meeting it with a ringing assertion of his principles, he hedged, stultifying himself with talk about the will of the people. Whatever the Smith newspapers try to make of his telegram to the Houston convention, it remains a straddle. For years they have called him a great man, but at the supreme crisis of his life he faltered. CRIME AND THE PRESS CHIEF OF POLICE FUNSTON of Schenectady, N. Y., does not agree with the charge that newspapers, with their reports of crime, influence criminals to further depredations and cause young people to become criminals. He says that of all the criminals he has questioned not one has said that anything he ever read in a newspaper influenced him in the slightest degree toward lawlessness. He says also that the press and the police are mutually helpful. IF THIS WERE NOT TRUE a police official would be the last to say it. The press is a greater deterrent of crime than is realized. A notoriously successful criminal, when captured, said that he would rather have a dozen detectives on his trail than one shrewd, experienced reporter. The press, in its capacity of general informer, spreads the news of a crime far and wide and thus makes it harder for a criminal to escape. In the recent Hickman case in Los Angeles the murderer was captured in Oregon, far from the scene of his crime, by two men who recognized him from having seen his picture in the newspapers. Instead of encouraging the criminal the press puts thousands of unofficial detectives on his trail. NOTHING TO WONDER ABOUT JIMMY DE FOREST, the famous trainer of prizefighters, wonders at the decline of the Negro pugilist. Speaking of Godfrey's recent defeat, he says that for the first time there is no outstanding Negro fighter, no dark menace to Caucasian superiority in the prize ring, no Jackson Gans; Dixon, Walcott, Blackburn or Langford. THIS is nothing to wonder about. The obstacles in the path of the Negro fighter have been growing ever since Jack Johnson was champion. Everything has been done to kill his incentive. He has never been certain of a fair decision unless he knocked his man completely out; he knows that the decision will be stolen from him if there is any way to do so. He has to fight his opponent, the referee, the timekeeper, the judges end the roaring crowd. He has learned the cold fact that American fair play like American democracy, is a theory and not a condition. EDITORIAL PAGE The Two Conventions Honolulu KANSAS CITY and Houston have passed into history. The Repubican and Democratic conventions have met and adjourned. I attended both assemblies by radio. The "listener-in" at a distance of 1,500 miles gains a fuller and more intimate view of proceedings than the onlooker at closer range. The objectives of the two conventions were identical, namely, to declare the platform of principles for the approaching campaign, and to select the standard hearers. The methods of procedure were also identical. The Republican Party was split two ways; the Democratic Party, three. The lines of cleavage can parallel. The industrial and agricultural interests, the wets and the drys met at Kansas City. The wets and drys, the North and South, the Protestants and Catholics met at Houston. Compromise was the watchword at both camps. Houston proved to be by far the more skillful manipulator. The knowing ones say the master mind and cunning hand in the case might be located in Albany, N. X., dancing to the radio in gleeful nonchalance at the foreplanned procedure as it unfolded itself. A shrewd newspaper observer remarked that the Democrats can only win by a miracle; but he shrewdly added that Al THERE is little to suggest the primitive in Honolulu, so up to date and Americanized is everything. The streets are broad and well paved; the buildings are modern in every respect; the business streets are similar to those in any mid-Western town; the shops display the same creations as Forty-second street. It is only when you get into the pretty side streets that you meet the charm of the Orient again. Then you see the quaint foreign shops, tended by the wily orientals, and the beautiful cottages behind the flowery hedges. Honolulu, as the name implies, is a "quiet haven," for no storms disturb the quietude of its harbor. It nestles at the foot of the Koanai mountains, skirts the shore-line for several miles and climbs part way up the steep and wooded slopes of the range. Private gardens line the streets of the residential districts and are never enclosed by walls but with hedges of purple asunder, red thuming hibiscus and bright orange begonia. In every yard, over every fence and on every house wall are roses, jasmines, pearl white heacamoun, lavender jacaranda, white ginger flowers and yellow bergamots. Climbing geraniums smother the eaves, cherry-colored bougainvillea eling to the branches of the tallest trees, red oleanders fling their sprays into the air, and the sweet mela vines laden the air with their fragrance. At every back door grow golden papayas, luscious mangoes, alligator pears and delicious, cool mountain-apples. On the broad, green lawns of the churches, schools and public buildings tower the brilliant point clauses, like huge umbrellas of orange, scarlet or crimson, with their gray-green understores. There are also the golden-shower, with thousands of yellow bells; the caixa, with its pink and white blossoms; the Pride-of-India, like a mist of lavender, and the algarabas, with drooping, feathery leaves; the huge banyan and hain trees, which lend their welcome shade. There are many charming drives and walks along the palm-lined avenues; between canals and ponds filled with red, white, blue and pink water-lilies and masses of pale lavender water-hymenicals; across rustic bridges to little islands dotted with fan-palms and brilliant leaved croptons, and high up into the mountains along dew-drenched trails. - Sightseeing - Come with me now for a drive about the city of Henolulu. First, we go to see the statue of the soldier-king, Kamehameha I, who first united the islands under one ruler, in 1796. Then, we go to the royal palace where the rulers held court in regal splendor; the throne room is of some interest, as well as the jewels and priceless feather coats—the pride of the true Iluwailah. The building is now used as a museum. Facing this royal building on the large open square are the post-office, the insular building and other government buildings. A short ride out King street brings us to the famous fish markets, where may be found fish of every description, from the huge man-eating shark to the delecable By KELLY MILLER Smith is a worker of miracles. It, indeed, it was his political cunning that composed the wide and deep differences in the Democratic Party, he certainly deserves to be called the wonder- A. E. H. - Kelly Miller - worker. What manner of man is this Al Smith that, even the discordant factions of the Democratic Party obey him? The keenest interest centered about the prohibition plank in both conventions. Strange to Honolulu By ADOLPH HODGE mullet. Continuing, we reach the Bishop Museum, where are housed all the exhibits of old-time Hawai'i, and of the life of the early Polynesian race; zoological, geographical, ethnological and historical backgrounds are minutely portrayed. Further on we enter Monnailla Gardens—one of the beauty spots of Honolulu. Trees and foliage of every kind may be found here and one can dream away many restful hours under the inviting shade trees or along the rippling brooks. Returning, we ride to the other end of the town for a stop at the famous Walkikil Beach, where all the city soes to bathe in the warm, smooth waters. Night bathing is enjoyed also. Just in back of the beach, in a large palm grove, is the aquarium. I nearly missed this, one of Bunk a Bunk and Fact THE conventions of the Republican and Democratic parties are over. That's a Fact. Kansas City and Houston received the Negro delegates with open arms. That's Bunk. At both conventions millions of high sounding words were sent through the ether insisting on the strict enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment. That's a Fact. When Senator Blank of Kentucky at the Republican convention and Senator Doe of Mississippi at the Democratic convention insisted on the strict enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments, both conventions arose as a body and the cheering and enthusiasm lasted twenty-nine minutes. That's Bunk. American, heinous cruel, inhuman, is a and will in a short unknown pastime. Where Negroes are there is no discrimination United States in the taxes and respecting obligations. That's Negro citizens of States are entitled right to select the lives; the right to fice, equal school equal opportunities law, the right to life are able, commissioned States Army, entitle Aviation Corps, entitle Point and Annapolis jury, the right to p Negro delegates at Kansas City lent quite some color to the convention. That's a Fact. Negro delegates went to the resolution committee with a program respecting the rights of 12,000,000 United States citizens which the committee had to, and did, receive. That's a Bunk. The Whitelaw Hotel is situated in Northwest Washington, D. C., and caters to Negro patrons. That's a Fact. The lobby of the Whitelaw Hotel is as clean as a whistle; there are no strange faces there and, singularly, all of the Negro politicians looking for office and the Speakers' Bureau have left town. That's a Bunk. The Republican National Committee will select some Negro to lead in the efforts to get Negro votes in November. That's a Fact. The usual group controlling this selection is fully agreed on a man to lead and hold the money bag. That's Bunk. A delegate at Houston told the convention that relief had been given to the farmers; they had been relieved of their farms. That's a Fact. The farmers of the United States have been misrepresented and have no just grievance against the Government. That's Bunk. A fair trial by jury of one's peers is not the privilege of citizens of the Negro group in certain sections of this glorious land. That's a Fact. A certain southern newspaper announces that lynching is un- ... say, the two parties used all but identical words in evasion of this great moral issue. They both fall back on that age-old device of reaffirming their basic belief in the enforcement of the Constitution in general and the prohibition provision in particular. Honest and courageous Al Smith, on being advised of his nomination upon the platform, flashed back immediately to the convention that he accepted the prohibition plank without reservation, but with the distinct understanding that his duty to enforce the law as written does not commit him to silence as to what he considers desirable alterations, according to his off-expressed and widely known views. The two conventions were similar in the choice of candidates whose experience has been limited mainly to administrative affairs, without declared views on broad national and international questions. It is also remarkable that both parties selected as Vice-Presidential candidates respective floor leaders on the Republican and Democratic sides of the United States Senate. I discovered no real difference between the two conventions on the race question, except the more corporal presence of Negro delegates at the one and their absence at the other. The deliberations proceeded as if the Negro did not exist. They seemed both to be utterly oblivious of moral inconsistency of avowing intention of upholding the whole Constitution, without the slightest intention of including that part of the Constitution which Hawaii's most interesting attractions. You may have seen the aquariums in New York, Berlin or Naples, but this one outdoes any other in the beauty of the markings and odd shapes of the fish. This is the only place that I have seen fish with distinctive facial expressions and features. I have never experienced a similar mental feeling, either. It was a mixture of wonder, amazement, awe, sadness and joy. I became so satiated with the delicate coloring that I was glad that there were no more fish to be seen. On coming out I heard one lady remark that she felt just like crying. You will be so happy with the beauty that you become sad.

That's Bunk. Where Negroes are concerned, there is no discrimination in the United States in the payment of taxes and respecting his military obligations. That's a Fact. Negro citizens of the United States are entitled to and get the right to select their representatives; the right to hold public office, equal schooling facilities, equal opportunities before the law, the right to live where they are able, commissions in the United States Army, entrance into the Aviation Corps, entrance to West Point and Annapolis, fair trial by jury, the right to peaceful assembly and the right to enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

The alignment of the race during the campaign must depend mainly upon the appraisement of the purpose and intention of the two chosen leaders — Herbert Hoover and Alfred E. Smith. Hoover's attitude seems to be constructive; Smith's attitude destructive. The Republican Party seems to be a better instrument through which to effect temperance reform than its Democratic adversary. Throughout the Kansas City deficiencies one did not hear a single word about moral issues, but merely material values. But to my utter surprise it was reserved to Judge Crisp of Georgia, in nominating Senator George of that State, to declare that there have been two great moral issues before the American nation since its foundation; the one was slavery and the other prohibition. He declared that the Democratic Party was defeated on the slavery question because it espoused the wrong side of a moral issue. But to redeem the Republican Party from crass materialism, Mr. Hoover, in his response to the telegram advising him of his nomination, called the party's and the nation's attention to the importance of stressing moral and spiritual values. After all has been said and done, we must look to Hoover to redeem the Grand Old Party and restore it to its pristine moral grandeur, just as the Democrats are looking to Al Smith to galvanize the Democratic corpse into life and power. littoral patronage; he will only tell you why, where, and how, because it is his duty to lead his flock into paths of truth and righteousness so that other men may see his good works.

Historical Truths The following facts concerning American history are not so well known as they ought to be: Nearly all the Presidents of the United States, right up to 1860, were either slave owners or slavery defenders who were opposed to the freedom of the Negro. In the original draft of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson denounced King George III of England for having encouraged the slave trade, but Jefferson in 1820 approved of the Missouri compromise, which extended slavery in the United States at that time. Many of the signers of the Declaration were slave owners and remained so to the day of their deaths. Previous to 1862 the Constitution guaranteed that the Negro should be the perpetual property of the slave owner. With only two exceptions all the wars that the United States has been engaged in were entered into with the sole object of stealing territory from the native Indians or from some foreign power. General William T. Sherman said "that the United States Government made a hundred treaties with Indians, but never kept one." Charles A. Eastman's book, "The Indian of Today," published by Doubleday, Page & Co., 1915, gives authentic accounts of how the native Redmen were robbed and butchered by the white settlers. The Mexican War of 1846 was instigated by American slave owners, who desired to extend slave territory. Abraham Lincoln, General U. S. Grant, Horace Greeley and many other righteous Americans denounced that war, which forced Mexico at the point of the bayonet, to yield thousands of square miles of her territory to the United States. It was slave owners also who were chiefly responsible for the American Civil War, and white - - - Keeping Fit By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D. THE complexity and mechanization of modern city life cause thousands of people to long for the seashore and country-side. This longing comes to a realization during the hot days and nights of summer, when these city dwellers leave bridge games, occupations, subways, tenements and apartments and go where the ocean rules and milk cows graze in the meadow. This is as it should be. The body of every working man and woman needs rest and the mind new channels of thought. This is rightly termed play. Prosperity, the automobile and quick transit in suburban and rural train service have made the week-end travel easy, pleasant and frequent. I am not quite sure, however, that these week-end trips are beneficial. Most people tell me that on the return to the city on Monday their feet, body and mind are tired and weary. the details of a routine business or the duties of a professional activity. Such people need rest, comfort and tranquility. City life is a strain on the body and mind. Nervous tension, mental exhaustion, muscle fatigue due to acidosis, glandular deficiencies, Their play was too strenuous; their enthusiasm in the seashore or country activities was too great. Instead of a quiet week-end, there was an orgy of many sets of tennis, eighteen-hole golf games, too much swimming, luncheon parties, special clothes for dinner, bridge games for money, dancing parties and plenty of liquor. Most of these week-end trips terminate into "good time parties," with the perils of strenuous hospitality and violent physical exercise. To have the benefit of a week-end vacation one needs tranquility and comfort at the seashore or country. This, of course, is only to the city dweller whose life is minutes, hours and days spent in A Key to By LEOL Special Silver for THE following descriptions placing or using various sional meal: A Key to Culture By LEOLA LILLARD Special Silver for Various Occasions THE following descriptions may be helpful to one when placing or using various pieces of silver at any occasional meal: Cold meat fork: When the host serves the cold fowl or meat, place this fork at the right of his place, or just above it. Pickle fork: place in the dish of pickles, which is passed to each person. Oyster fork: generally placed at the extreme right. Individual salad fork: place second from the outside. If fish is served, the salad fork is third from the outside on the left hand. server is also convenient for serving French pastry. Bouillon spoons: place on the table; lay crosswise just above the plate. Berry spoon: place with the dish of berries before the host. Ice cream fork: never place the ice cream fork on the table beforehand, but lay it on the right-hand side of the ice cream plate. Cake fork: place on cake plate when served. Stainless fruit knife: at breakfast, lay at the right-hand of the breakfast knife; at dinner, place on the plate that bears the fingerbowl. Pastry server: place it with the pie before the hostess, or lay it conveniently on the serving table or dinner wagon. Such a all other nations abolished slavery without bloodshed, this country indulged in a terrible fratricidal conflict, which caused the deaths of nearly a million men. For proof of those statements, see the following books: "A Student's History of the United States," by Edward Chamling. Published by MacMillan & Co., New York, 1908.

Tuskegee Reports on Lynchings for 6 Months Evidently the compilation was made before the reported lynching of two brothers Friday in Brook Haven Miss., a report of which appears elsewhere in this issue. the details of a routine business on the duties of a professional activity. Such people need rest, comfort and tranquility. City life is a strain on the body and mind. Nervous tension, mental exhaustion, muscle fatigue due to acidosis, glandular deficiencies, metabolism, all are the end results of the strenuousness of city life. So why have this mental strain and physical over-exercising on the week-end trip? Why this show-off with many bags filled with different changes of clothes, a change with each meal? Why the over-exercising with golf, tennis, swimming? Why the loss of sleep in after-midnight bridge games? Why the liquor? All of us city dwellers need the week-end trips, but we should leave behind us any desire for excitement or over-exercising. A dip in the ocean, or an early walk in the country road, then reading, sleeping, hammock or easy chair conversations, early to bed and early to rise, are the proper things for a week-end of rest, tranquility and comfort.
