GRAND JURY TO HEAR "RIOT" CASE
ROBESON FEARED "BLUES" SINGING IN REVUE WOULD HARM HIS VOICE
REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Complete in Two Sections
MRS. PAUL ROBESON EXPLAINS ALLEGED CONTRACT BREACH
Admits Actor-Singer Signed Contract, but Later Decided Singing of "Blues" in Revue Would Probably
Injure His Voice
The incidents that led to the suspen concert singer and actor, who is now app edition of Zeigfeld's "Show Boat," from month in the Actors' Equity Association, exclusive interview with Mrs. Paul Robe West 150th street, yesterday morning.
Mr. Robeson is said to be the first ber of Equity, while Charles Gilpin of it was the first Negro junior member.
The incidents that led to the suspension of Paul Robeson, concert singer and actor, who is now appearing in the London edition of Zeigfield's "Show Boat," from membership for one month in the Actors' Equity Association, were recounted in an exclusive interview with Mrs. Paul Robeson at her home, 226 West 150th street, yesterday morning.
Mr. Robeson is said to be the first senior Negro member of Equity, while Charles Gilpin of "Emperor Jones" fame was the first Negro junior member.
Equity's decision against Mr. Robeson occurred two weeks ago on complaint of Mrs. Caroline Dudley Reagan, white, who charged that last January Mr. Robeson signed a contract with her to appear in a revue to be produced by her, and asserts that when the time came for rehearsals Mr. Robeson did not appear.
Mrs. Reagan, who goes under the professional name of Caroline Dudley, declares that she has obligated herself as regards a cast, composers, lyricists and writers for her new show.
However, neither Equity nor the usual dramatic schedules could furnish any clues as to what Mrs. Reagan's revue is to be called, who are in the cast or who are the authors, composers and writers concerned. The revue is supposed to open on Broadway October 14.
Mrs. Robeson stated that her husband old sign an Equity contract with Mrs. Reagan in January to appear in her revue and that Mr. Robeson was to do a dramatic, a blues and a spiritual sketch.
In March Mr. Robeson took the role of Crown in "Porgy," but found it too much of a strain on his voice to sing above the other singers in the storm scene. He left "Porgy" and signed an Equity contract with Florence Ziegfeld to appear in Sir Alfred Brutt's London run of "Show Boat" in Drury Lane.
The contract with Ziegfeld stipulated that Mr. Robeson would be permitted to release himself from it when the time came to appear here in Mrs. Reagan's revue. And if he was not to appear in the revue Mr. Robeson was to continue with Mr. Ziegfeld, was the understanding.
The actor's vocal experience in "Porgy" caused a serious doubt to enter Mr. Robeson's mind in regard to his appearance in the revue where it was now revealed, the singing of the blues song would probably injure his voice.
Then, also, Mr. Robeson was most unhappy over the prospect of singing the spirituals in a revue and that to do so would react unfavorably upon his state of mind and thus de-

Magistrate Fails To Hold Suspect
Witness Says He Heard Noise at Airshaft and Saw Defendant Run
Because he would be sent to prison for life if convicted, under the Baumes laws, Magistrate Moquade, sitting in Helghts Court Friday, for some unknown reason, said he would not hold Bethlehem Pierce, 38, 63 West 137th street, on what he considered "films evidence" on which Pierce had been arrested and charged with attempted burglary. Pierce was discharged.
According to police records Pierce had already received four convictions for felonies, having been only recently released from prison. Three of Pierce's convictions were for burglary and one for larceny.
Jeremiah Henry, 205 West 141st street, was the complainant against Pierce, and told the court that Pierce attempted to force an entry into his home through the airshaft window on the night of August 29. He heard a noise as he entered the house, Henry said, and soon Pierce came running past him.
Patrolman Ferdinand Wheeler of the West 135th street station, along with -Clarence E. Wilson, 2423 Seventh avenue, ran after Pierce, Wheeler stumbled and fell, bruising both knees. Pierce ran into a small child and fell to the ground and was caught and held by Wilson. At the police station the story of the alleged attempted burglary was told to Detective Burns, who appeared in court when Pierce was first arraigned.
"Did anyone actually see this man breaking into the apartment?" asked the magistrate. The reply was that no one had seen him attempt burglary but they all saw him running.
"I don't blame him for running," said the magistrate.

Fats' Waller's Plea for Another Chance Denied by Court; Sent Back to Jail
Famous Blues Writer and Organist Failed to Keep Up Almony for Support of Wife and Child
After failing six times to make good on his promise to support his wife and child, Thomas "Fats" Waller, song writer, blues organist and pianist, was sent to the New York County Penitentiary on Friday to serve a term of from six months to three years, according to the disposition of the parole board.
"Fats" is charged with abandoning his wife, Edith, and his four-year-old son, Thomas Jr., who live at 1006 Brook avenue. The court had awarded Mrs. Waller allmony of $20 a week.
"I've been in jail 31 days now," pleaded Waller before Judge Albert Cohn in Bronx County-Court, "and, Judge, I've certainly learned my lesson."
"You've had at least five lessons during the last year," replied Judge Cohn, "and you have violated every promise you made to this court. Enough is enough."
Waller was then denied "Just one more chance," and the putting up of a bond or anything else cannot get him out of jail, it is said. The length of time that he must actually serve will be determined after he has "rested" a while, it is reported. Perhaps he'll write an "Allmony Blues."
Because of the judge's lenency, it was necessary for the State to commence extradition proceedings in at least two instances to bring Waller back from other states where he had been playing the organ and plano in movie houses. The last time he was taken into custody was at Philadelphia where he had contracted to play at the Royal Theatre at Sixteenth, a movie house.
Machado Honored By Negro Societies
Cuban President Tendered Banquet at Cuban Capital
HAVANA, Cuba, Sept. 7.—Homage was paid to President Machado of the Republic of Cuba by the Union of Negro Societies which tendered him a great banquet in the National Theatre last night.
Besides the President, the banquet was attended by Vice-President La Rosa, the mayor of Havana, the Secretary of Justice, other members of the President's cabinet and Negro delegates from every Negro society on the island. Also Mrs. Machado, her daughter, the wife of the commander-in-chief of the Cuban forces and Zolla Galbez, famous
On Thursday he again pleaded that was making good money now and promised that the weekly payments would never lapse again. "Banana oil," said Judge Cohn, in effect. Waller was sent to jail, where he will doubtless join the Almony Club and hobnob with millionaires and others. As soon as his jail term is served and he is back at work again he must begin his weekly payments again or else go back to jail. "Fats" will probably become the jail organist or plantist, as there are bars aplenty to try out.
To Support Smith
According to the Smith-for-President Colored League, James C. Thomas, life-long Repubilican and former Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern district of New York, is going to support Governor Smith for President.
HAVANA, Cuba, Sept. 7.—Homage was paid to President Machado of the Republic of Cuba by the Union of Negro Societies which tendered him a great banquet in the National Theatre last night.
Besides the President, the banquet was attended by Vice-President La Ross, the Mayor of Havana, the Secretary of Justice, other members of the President's cabinet and Negro delegates from every Negro society on the island. Also Mra. Machado, her daughter, the wife of the commander-in-chief of the Cuban forces and Zolla Galbez, famous opera singer.
Aquilino Lombard, who presided as delegate-chairman, offered a brief tribute to the President, being followed by Dr. Miguel A. Caspedes, who delivered the official address in which he paid glowing homage to President Machado in behalf of all Cuban Negroes. He thanked him for the fairness and justice that has always characterized his dealing with this element of the Cuban population, and for the significant governmental appointments given to so many of their number.
President Machado was visibly touched by the tribute and responded in sincere and emotional tones.
Among other things he said: 'No one can truthfully affirm that I am prejudiced, or a dictator. I do not mind the criticism of the press, unless they tend to undermine the government . . . the doors of the presidential palace are always open

Clarence Donald, 36, 2328 Seventh avenue, alleged victim of police brutality, was held in $1,000 bail for the Grand Jury on a charge of felonious assault when arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in Heights Court yesterday morning.

Hoover Assures Negro Of Equal Opportunity
DES MONES, Ja., Sept. 10.—Negroes who are interested in the political advancement as well as the general progress of that race will be interested in a statement made here recently by James B. Morris, local attorney and editor of the Iowa Bystander after an interview with the Republican candidate.
"When asked his views on the so-called 'race question' Mr. Morris said 'Secretary Hoover stated: 'If elected President of the United States, the colored people can depend upon me to see that no backward steps are made in their aspirations to achieve their full share of the opportunities under the American government.'"
Mr. Hoover showed unusual interest in the problems faced by Negro citizens in the effort to maintain their rights in this section and asked many pointed questions.

Seventh avenue, alleged victim $1,000 bail for the Grand Jury it when arraigned before Magourt yesterday morning. The marles Kubeil, white, of Traffic Donald kicked him in the groin street and Lenox avenue, the citizens on Sunday evening, July ed from $2,500.
Herman Ellis, white, a taxi chauffeur, 218 West 122d street, testified in behalf of Patrolman Kubeil. He said that on the day in question he was at 138th street and Lenox avenue fixing a tire when the trouble started. He stated that he saw Donald resist arrest by fighting Patrolman Kubeil and Patrolman De Stella of the West 135th street station, and that he saw Donald kick Kubeil in the groin.
Ellis is also a complainant against St. William Grant, 23, 130 West 135th street, who testified on August 14 that he saw De Stella kick at Donald while he was on the ground and miss him and that the blow caught Kubeil in the groin. The moment he finished his testimony and arrested in the court and identified the man whom Ellis said held him up and robbed him on the morning of July 21.
On the same evening Grant was beaten in two police stations so badly that he could hardly stand up in the lineup at Police Headquarters the next morning.
On August 27 Magistrate Bushel, sitting in Harlem Court, held Grant in $5,000 ball for the Grand Jury, but stated that he did not believe there (Continued on Page 2.)
EXTRA REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION
Alphonso Rojansen Arrested Following His Acquittal in Connection With Death of Boy Declared Incurable in Bellevue Hospital
Following his discharge Monday in Homicide Court in connection with the death of three-year-old LeRoy Samuels, 205 East Ninety-ninth street, Alphonso Rojansen, 26, a salesman, of 209 West 127th street, was rearrested by Detectives Lynch and Grippen of the East 103rd street station on charge of practicing medicine without a license and held in $2,500 bail for trial in Special Sessions.
Governor Smith's Prejudice Shown
Headquarters Statements Says He Employs Negroes Only as Menials
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10. — A charge that "Republican propagandists" are trying to discredit Governor Smith in the South by "slanders spread secretly" and "overt acts designed to mislead public opinion," has brought forth the Democratic party's true attitude toward the Negro in the North and South.
It was stated that a letter received by Senator Tydings of Maryland, chairman of the Democratic Speakers' Bureau from Easton, Md., informed him that Negroes were being hired by Republicans to ride in automobiles on the sides of which are displayed streamers bearing the words "Al Smith."
Thus manned and marked, automobiles are being driven up and down the Eastern Shore of Maryland and in the States of Virginia and North Carolina, Senator Tyding's informant wrote. The headquarters statement said further that a Ku Klux Klan preacher, speaking at a Ku Klux Klan fish try, declared that "Governor Smith's private stenographer was a Negro and that Smith had placed thousands of Negroes on payrolls in New York State, both of which statements are untrue. Nevertheless, the statement sent out from Democratic headquarters has this also to say.
"Truth is, Governor Smith does not have, and never has had, a Negro stenographer, and in the employment of Negroes by the State of New York under his administration this has been done only to fill such jobs as they are given in the South, to wit: Porters, janitors, charwoman, etc."
Rojansen was arraigned on complaint of Mrs. Beatrice Samuels, who testified that he he was a physician and had accepted $70 from her for the purpose of treating her child. Mrs. Samuels met Rojansen in front of Bellevue Hospital on June 2, last, while she was returning home with her child, who had been suffering from incurable. He was suffering from his illness. Rojansen, she said, visited her home and, after examining the child, said she was sure that, if he was allowed to treat the child, he would cure him. Mrs. Samuels gave Rojansen $30, she said, after which he began treating the child, prescribing various herbs and liquids for the child.
On June 8 she visited Rojansen in his home, Mrs. Samuels said, and paid him $40 more. On August 28 her child became seriously ill and was removed to the City Hospital, where he died.
When Mrs. Samuels learned that Rojansen was not a physician the police were notified and he was arrested. He was arraigned in Homicide Court and held in $10,000 bail.
An autopsy was performed at the museum which showed that the child died from his priginal lament and that the articles prescribed to the child by Rojansen were not responsible for his death. For that reason the charge was dismissed in Homicide Court and Rojansen rearrested for practicing medicine without a license.

Will Not Appear in Revue
Lawrence Brown, Mr. Robeson's accompanist at the plano, expressed full agreement with Mr. Robeson on the matter. Mr. Robeson then decided that he would not appear in the revue.
A cable was sent to Mrs. Reagan in July, stating Mr. Robeson's intentions and offering to buy the contract from Mrs. Reagan. The producer declined Mr. Robeson's offer and insisted that he present himself for rehearsal.
Mrs. Reagan took her complaint to Equity and Equity cabled Mr. Robeson, demanding that he return here and fulfill the terms of his contract with Mrs. Reagan.
As Mr. Robeson did not intend to return, Mrs. Robeson salled from London and arrived here August 21 for the purpose of trying to straighten the matter out with Mrs. Reagan. "Aside from offering to buy the contract," said Mrs. Robeson, "we also offered to pay the cost of the damages to Mrs. Reagan.
"I had an appointment with Mrs. Reagan and Frank Gillmore, president of Equity, on August 23, and although Mrs. Reagan was to meet us there, she telephoned and postponed the meeting. At first Mrs. Reagan seemed inclined to compromise, but she apparently consulted her attorney in the meanwhile, for she remained adamant. She still insists that Mr. Robeson appear, although she has as yet produced no record of any kind to indicate that she is going ahead with the revenue."
Mrs. Reagan explained that all the various scrips, lyrics and so on have been distributed to the proper persons, whom she does not name, Mrs. Robeson said.
Equity listened to Mrs. Robeson's story sympathetically, it is reported, but the suspension was inevitable under the conditions.
The suspension of one month is temporary pending Mr. Robeson's appearance here not later than Friday, after which date, if he does not return, further measures may be taken in the matter.
Mrs. Robeson is planning to sail for London at the end of this week or the first of next week. The Robesons reside at 76 Carlton Hill, St. John's Wood, London.
Robeson Signs With Powell
According to Mrs. Robeson, her husband has signed a contract for a concert tour with Lionel Powell, famous London concert manager, who arranges exclusive itineraries for Paderewski, McCormack, Challaink, Kreisler and other celebrities. The tour will begin next year. A contract with Powell is said to be equal to attaining the heights in opera.

OF EXPENSIVE AUTO
Accused of stealing a high-priced automobile, Jack Steele, 23, 440 Lenox avenue, was arraigned in Morrissia Court before Magistrate McKiniry on Thursday and held without ball for the Grand Jury on a charge of grand larceny on complaint of Raymond Vesco, white, a chauffeur, 210 East Ninety-eighth street, who said the car was stolen in a drive-off on Spence plaza near 149th street. Steele came away with the car and came back to the same spot in another car, the police said, and was arrested by Patrolman Grossman of the Morrissia station.

"Whitewash King"
Edmund Bailey, 44, 1526 Brook avenue, who calls himself the "whitewash king," was held in $500 ball for Special Sessions on a charge or possessing policy slips when arraigned in West Farms Court Sunday before Magistrate McKiniry, who also found it necessary to prefer against Bailey a charge of violating the Volstead law, for which he will be tried later in Federal Court.
When Detectives Rieger and Bauer of Inspector Thompson's staff raided Bailey's basement apartment for policy slips they also found a 50-gallon liquor stock, 800 gallons of mass mash and about 2,000 empty bottles ranging in size from half-pints up to a quart, they charged.
ACCIDENT ON FIFTH AVE.
BUS INJURES FOUR
Four residents of Harlem* were injured early last week when a Fifth avenue bus in which they were riding struck a road depression - at Washington Square, North, and mounted the sidewalk.
Laura Johnson, 250 West 136th street, suffered shock; Frederick Fitzpatrick, 316 West 138th street, suffered a possible fracture in the pelvic region, while his wife, Sarah, suffered shock. Elsie Johnson, same address, sustained contusions of the left side.
All were taken to St. Vincent's Hospital* for treatment, but were afterward able to return home. There were 24 passengers on the bus at the time of the accident. The others escaped injury.
Held Anyway
The police said he was drunk but the police surgeon declared him sober, and Thomas Walnwright, 202 West 149th street, arrested Thursday night by Hudson County, N. J. police for driving while intoxicated, was charged with reckless driving when the brakes on his car were found faulty.
Donald Held for Grand Jury
(Continued from Page 1.)
is a jury in the world that will convict him.
"High-handed intimidation" was the term applied to Grant's arrest in court by Attorney John William Smith, former Alderman, 28 Cortlandt street, who fought bitterly for the freedom of both Donald and Grant. The same attorney also represented another witness in the case for Donald in the person of Pedro Suner, 21, a native of Panama, 234 West 146th street, who was also arrested in court by one of the four officers who were injured during the street disturbance.
Suner was charged with simple assault upon the officer at the scene of the riot and was held in $1,000 ball for Special Seasons.
Yesterday morning Assistant District Attorney James State told the court that he had ready a witness for the people by the name of Pendergast, together with a few others (Notchover, Stewart and perhaps two others), whom Male said, were ready to testify in corroboration of Ellis' testimony that they saw Donald kick Kubell. This was to indicate that the People had made out a prima facie case against the defendant Donald. Magistrate McQuade agreed upon this point and did not call the other witnesses to the stand. He reduced the ball and held Donald for the Grand Jury.
Attorney Smith said yesterday that he is taking an appeal from the decision of Magistrate Dodge, who on August 14 found Donald guilty of disorderly conduct and sentenced him to ten days in the workhouse, on complaint of Mrs. Zerlana Chavis, 659 Lenox avenue, who testified that she positively identified Donald as one of three men who obroke into her home and beat and choked her. It was the screams of Mrs. Chavis that started all the trouble. Three witnesses refuted her testimony. Patrolman Kubell testified Friday that he had grabbed the first man he saw running when he heard Mrs. Chavis scream, and that he let this man go and grabbed Donald, who was intoxicated. Kubell and De Stella reached Donald at about the same time and, according to witnesses, began beating him unmercifully. It was this act of brutality, witnesses said, that caused the crowd to protest.
Donald, under arrest, was walked into the station house in West 135th street, but was later brought out on a stretcher.
Fourth Seventh Avenue Fire Victim Dies in Hospital; Missed Ladder, Fell
Fourth Seventh Avenue Fire Victim Dies in Hospital; Missed Ladder, Fell
Two men, a mother and her five-months-old baby met their deaths, while ten others were injured, about 9 a.m. last Wednesday when a fire of supposed incendiary origin completely burned out the interiors of all five floors of a tenement house at 1968 Seventh avenue; near 119th street. Two men were arrested in the tenement house next door, suspected of having set the blaze. They could not explain their presence.
Mrs. Millis Rutledge, 22, wife of Johns Rutledge, who works in the Custom House, and her baby daughter, Barbara, were found suffocated by the dense black smoke in their second floor apartment. Firemen worked over them for fifteen minutes in a vain effort to revive them.
The dead body of Albert Gomez, 24, who had arrived here the day before as an immigrant from Santo Domingo, was found burned almost beyond recognition.

Walter Miller, 49, fell three stories to the sidewalk when he missed a ladder that firemen raised to him. He sustained fractures of the skull and both legs. He was removed to Harlem Hospital in a critical condition and died Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. The crowds that filled the streets were given the thrill of their lives when Bernardo Emers, 35, and his wife, Martinas, 25, attempted to leap from the fifth floor. A frantic plea from a thousand throats restrained them, however. The couple made their way to safety on a three-inch stone ledge to an adjoining window at the firemen's and spectators looked breathlessly up. Firemen and policemen swarmed up the face of the building as quickly as ladders could be raised and a half dozen or more women and children were carried to safety. The remalder of the ten families in the house escaped over the roof or down the fire escapes.
Among those who saved the lives of the fire-trapped tenants were Patrolmen Donahue, Riley, Fox and McLaughlin of the West 123d street station and Fireman John A. Fitzhue.
The fire was discovered by John A. Fitzgerald, a white taxi driver, 73 East 123d street, who turned in an alarm. Battalion Chief George turned in the second alarm which brought Deputy Chief Clark and Smoky Joe Martin.
Deputy Fire Marshal S. B. Willis reported afterward that he had traced the blaze to a baby carriage

Although the bannisters were burned completely away the stairs remained sufficiently firm to allow expressmen to bring down some of the heavy pieces of furniture.

To Run for Ohio Legislature
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. 15—A young attorney, Perry B. Jackson, has won sixteen place on the Republican State legislative ticket in Ohio, defeating the county road foreman for the nomination.
Mr. Jackson will, if elected, take the place in the legislature of Harry D. Davis, now Civil Service Commissioner, who was re-elected in the legislature for several terms before his present appointment.

Three Instances of Interracial Good-Will
JACKSONVILLE, Texas, Sept. 10.—Three interesting illustrations of interracial good will and co-operation have recently occurred in this city. The first was the unveiling of a monument to the soldiers who lost their lives in the Spanish-American and World War, the monument carrying the names of both the whites and colored soldiers; the second illustration occurred when the city set out a few months ago to extend associated in the past with the Business Fidelity Association, the Mortgage Discount and Finance Company and the Greater Security Corporation, all of Canada. Also the Great Lakes, Finance Corporation and the Metropolitan Guardian Company, both of Michigan, and a number of other institutions.

"Virginia Negro Vote Safe for Hoover"
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10—According to Tiffany Tolliver of Roanoke, Va., organizer for the State Republican Committee of Virginia, the rumors which have been appearing Dearborn of the state regarding the detection of the Negro vote are unfounded.
"There is little Smith sentiment in Virginia," said Mr. Tolliver. "Not only are the claims that Negroes are rapidly organizing Smith clubs untrue, but, the much advertised meeting held at Buckroe Beach a month ago was a fizzle. It was attended by the Democratic organizer for that region, and a few disgruntled former Republicans."

Fraternal Writer of Amsterdam News Tells of Steam-Roller Methods of Wilson
Defeat of Secretary Bates and Treasurer Carter Now Being Generally Discussed by Members of Order Mrs. Berry Re-elected Grand Daughter Ruler
By CHARLES T. MAGILL

Whether the J. Finley Wilson machine went too far in forcing nearly every measure through that bore the administration label and effected the defeat of James T. Carter, former treasurer, and George E. Bates, former secretary, at the recent twenty-ninth annual grand lodge session of the I., B., P. O. E. of W. in Chicago, is the question now being generally discussed throughout the jurisdiction of Elkdom.
One thing is certain: the last Elks' convention was the most steam-rollered and the most controlled of any previous one, and some of them have been remarkable for machine control.
By methods which tied the hands of several big delegations, the administration forces were able to remove Carter and Bates, the two cumilining blocks in the administration scheme of running the order. Both men have consistently remained out of that choice inner circle around which Wilson has built a machine not only powerful but ruthless at times in its action.
been improperly fled, hence they said they had no jurisdiction.
Thomas H. Brown, former exalted ruler of Imperial Lodge, also under a ninety-nine year suspension, was unable to have even a report read on his case which was considered, together with that of Hanson's. Hanson and Brown lacked administration support, hence they remain on the outside looking in.
Atlantic City Next
One of the administration measures that could not get over was the
While they had the confidence of the vast majority of the delegates who would have liked to have seen both men remain in office as a wedge against possible hasty actions on the part of the grand exalted ruler, the steam roller was used on the former treasurer and secretary so effectively that they were flattened right out of the picture.
James C. Kelly of Birmingham, Alabama, who succeeds Bates as secretary, is one of the cogs in that ultra body that Wilson has built up since his election as grand exalted ruler. James T. Martin of Chicago, who succeeds Carter as treasurer, is not so much a member of that inner circle.
The administration was first said to have decided upon Major R. R. Wright of Philadelphia for treasurer, but the major thought he saw something brewing that was unhealthful, so he withdrew his name. Martin may cause the administration more trouble than Carter did before the next convention convenes at Atlantic City in 1929.
Dictated Elections
The machine forces had a carefully planned program. It included the election of Joseph James of Jacksonville, Fla., to succeed himself as grand esteemed loyal knight. Andrew T. Mitchell, exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge, who was a candidate for that office, supposedly with the administration endorsement, nearly upset the machine's plan early in the convention when at a caucus, presided over in his usual dictatorial and lordly manner by William C. Hueston of Gary, Indiana, Mitchell clearly beat James as the administration candidate for the office of grand esteemed loyal knight. Hueston was forced to resort to all kinds of tactics to declare James the candidate, to prevent the administration plans going on on the rocks right at the start of the convention.
A compromise in the Mitchell case was affected when Dr. Holland R. Johnson of Brooklyn, former grand esteemed lecturing knight, reelinquished his office to Mitchell's candidacy upon the promise that he would be made grand medical director, a new office which Wilson is to create. Accordingly, Mitchell was elected grand esteemed lecturing knight with the administration approval in less than five minutes' time. Sidney Thompson of Cleveland, Ira L. Derrick of Los Angeles and Joseph Levi of St. Paul were elected grand esquire, grand inner guard and grand lier, respectively, all, of course, with the administration approval. R. E. Pharow of Atlanta, Georgia, succeeded in going to the Trustee Board, and John Love of Rosanoke, Virginia, becomes a grand auditor.
James B. Allen of Imperial Lodge who worked up the case against Charles M. Hanson, former secretary of Imperial Lodge and deposed grand auditor, and brought about his ninety-nine year suspension, becomes grand auditor to fill Hanson's unexpired term.
Hanson's case, which came before the Appeals and Grievance Committee as Case Number 3, was declared by that committee to have

been improperly filed, hence they said they had no jurisdiction. Thomas H. Brown, former exalted ruler of Imperial Lodge, also under a ninety-nine year suspension, was unable to have even a report read on his case which was considered, together with that of Hanson's. Hanson and Brown lacked administration support, hence they remain on the outside looking in.
Atlantic City Next
One of the administration measures that could not get over was the taking of the 1829 convention to Kansas City. The machine was pledged to the far Western City, the home of Dr. William J. Tompkins, chairman of the Health Commission and the man who showed Negroes the way into their cage at the Democratic convention in Houston, Tex., last June.
Although New York with its big vote had swallowed everything the administration had forced down up to this time, they refused to consider Kansas City on the ground of the expense and the color prejudice existing there.
Baltimore was a hot contender for the convention next year along with Kansas City, but the administration looked with disfavor upon the Monumental City because it is the home of George McMechen, former grand exulted ruler and a non-administration man, and because George E. Bates, deposed grand secretary, was for Baltimore.
The administration, seeing that the East, docile and obedient as lambs in all other things, would likely kick over the traces, switched to Atlantic City. Baltimore and the Sea Shore city went to bat for the honor and, though it appeared that Baltimore had by far the greatest number of votes, Atlantic City was declared the next convention city.
The Chicago convention had the usual jammed pay-off. Early in the season the word went out that there would be no committee padding to pay off the faithful or the private friends, such as there was in New York last year or in Cleveland in 1927. There was a wailing and grashing of teeth, for many of the brothers have learned to depend on that hand-out in order to get back home, even though they are not delegates.
So loud was the protest against closing the pork barrel that the original idea was thrown into the discard and in the crush waiting to be paid off could be seep rich man, poor man, beggar man, doctor, lawyer, professional man. They were all there, producing one of the mysteries of the new order of things in Elkdom, that of men who so obviously do not need the money and who ordinarily would not take something they had not earned, waiting for their paltry hand-out.
Those who had been "good" and voted right got on the pay roll, while those who had voted against the administration in any particular got right off the pay sheet. Crossing and double-crossing ran rampant and many who were supposed to be "amqng the favored" found themselves double-crossed and out in the cold.
Among some of the administration propositions accepted were those to pay each member of the Board of Trustees $50 per month and per diem expenses to and from each convention, including Pullman and railroad fare; a proposition submitted by Caspar Holstein of Monarch Lodge, pledging the confidence, sympathy and hearty cooperation of the order to Perry W. Howard, who is under suspension as a United States Assistant Attorney General; one to pay the sec

Two administration measures that could not make the grade, though a big effort was made to force both through, was the Fidelity Fund proposition and that to reduce the delegation quota from its present ratio of one to each one hundred members to one for each five hundred members. The latter proposition was killed and the former was laid on the table, where it was never recalled. The Fidelity Fund idea will now be submitted to a committee of lawyers for perfecting.
Chicago Poor Convention City
Chicago Poor Convention City Dissatisfaction was loud and nearly universal over the arrangements made by the Chicago Convention Committee for the entertainment of the delegates and visitors. The general impression was that this year's conference was the poorest arranged and most locally directed by the local committee of any previous session. Chicago's decorations were poor and in many sections almost pathetic.
Re-elect Mrs. Berry
With a vote so close that not until the final ballot was cast was the victor of the contest known, the women re-elected Mrs. Ella G. Berry grand daughter ruler over Mrs. Abbie Johnson of Philadelphia. Mrs. Johnson declined to run for the office formerly held by her, that of grand assistant daughter ruler, and Mrs. Elizabeth Klimbough of Brooklyn, an active candidate for the office, was elected by a close vote. Rosa L. Blocker of Invincible Temple, New York, was re-elected grand daughter escort. Because of laxness on the part of the Chicago Convention Committee, the women's session, held in the Metropolitan Temple, was attended with much confusion and had to end Friday evening before the business of the session was really over, in order to give the church over to the church authorities, according to the contract made with the local committee.
WOMAN HELD AS
KIDNAPPER FREED
Mrs. Sarah Harrell, 25, 281 Edgcombe avenue, charged with kidnapping six-year-old Ruby Davis, 2283 Eighth avenue, was dismissed on the charge Monday in General Sessions Court, Part II, by Judge Mancuso, who handed down a direct acquittal.
Mrs. Harrell's defense was an alib, in that she produced witnesses to corroborate the story of her whimsey on the day the child "disappeared." June 2 last.
She has been confined to prison under $3,000 ball since June 7, the day of her arrest. Mrs. Harrell is an aunt of the missing child.
Attorney Ralph C. Warrick, 200 West 136th street, represented Mrs. Harrell.

Railroad Man Was in Misery
"I was a sick man—could hardly go to work at all," says Mr. Chas. E. Parker, of Charleston, Ill. "I had severe throbbing headaches, dizzy spells, indigestion, tightness in my chest, shortness of breath. "My back ached and I could not bed with any ease. Any way I turned I was in misery. "I tried different remedies till I heard of Black-Draught. I took a couple of good, big doses of Black-Draught and saw a big change. I was better—I ate better and slept better. I was till I peeled. I was then able to go back to my work. I am a railroader and my work is hard.
"I have kept myself fit by taking Black-Draught, and though I'm 52 years old I can do my work with ease right along with younger men. I am never without Black-Draught. I give it to my nieces for colds and stomach troubles and it helps them. It helps dizziness and bad taste in the mouth—an all "round good medicine." Costs only I cent a dose.

A CHILD is a child the world over, and it does not take much from a child to win an audience—even in heartless New York.
As late as 11:45 o'clock Wednesday night an ebony-hued kid of not more than 12 years was riding alone on an uptown Ninth avenue "L" train. In appearance he looked very much like the longshoremen who were returning from the docks—tired, hungry, dirty and sleepy. While the longshoremen managed to keep awake, he slept soundly and without fear.
It was a prosperous looking Jewish man, who was getting off at Ninety-ninth street, who had courage enough to arouse the boy and ask him if he knew where he was going. By the time the train reached 151st street none less than a dozen people—white and colored; men and women; married and single; mothers and fathers; rich and poor—had busied themselves about the boy's welfare and destination.
Perhaps it was sheer curiosity that caused all of this, but I am inclined to believe that it was the power that a child holds over human beings that made them all anxious.
Even as I left the train I felt concerned about one so young and so apparently in need of a bath, fresh clothing, a warm meal, a home and a mother.—T. E. B.

Buy Your Blankets Now.
The first thing to consider in buying blankets is size. Be sure to give some consideration to the thickness of what hang over or to the need you need. For example, blankets with box springs require a little more allowance. For the single or twin bed, 60x80 is excellent; for the double bed, 72x84, this added length blanket is added for those who like a blanket to come well up over the shoulders.
Quality.
The quality of the blanket is the next thing to consider. See that it is light. Next, it should be of close weave and thickly tapped. In considering all wool blanks, we often hear the term "virgin wool." Virgin wool means new wool, or wool which has not been used before in manufacturing processes. It is used with the quality or grade of the wool. I have several letters before me from readers wanting to know if they should purchase all wool blankets. As the situation stands today, the buyer of blankets has no clear knowledge of the actual wool contents of the blankets. The blanket industry in this country has produced blankets of high quality in both "all wool" and "part wool." In addition to these part wool combinations, the blankets made up of all wool filling in a Such blankets have great warmth, and because of the cotton warp they are not so susceptible to shrinkage when washed.

Bindings.
In choosing bindings, we should consider service ability and expense and not beauty alone. Satin is unequalled for luster and richness. It represents the most expensive type or binding, still we cannot expect it to remain as beautiful after frequent washing or dry cleaning. Satin makes an excellent, binding and gives wonderful service. For the baby's blanket, the blanket-stitch edging is always practical.
Double Blankets Not So Popular.
The old-fashioned idea that blankets should be made double is rapidly giving way to a preference for single length blankets. Single blankets are easier to handle in making beds, more convenient for summer use, and much lighter when it comes to washing.

New Fall Hints.
Jewelled effects dominate evening mode.
Paris shows preference for novel ornaments.
Hats and vests are the major fabrics in winter.
Small hats still lead the Paris millinery winter parade.
Brown is the leading color.
Furs are short and curly.
Scarfs are very popular for day and evening.
A coat for every dress constitutes sharpness for autumn street wear.
Velvet plain or printed. Introduces formality for autumn afternoons.
Yokes are smart this season.
The felt hat is as popular as ever falls. It makes its appearance in two forms—the brimless cap for the girl, and the hat with a shaped brim. The fall hat depends for trimming on interesting manipulation of the felt itself or the discreet addition of some other fabric. Jewelled pins and ornaments are no longer worn by the smart woman

Confidences
Questions and Answers
By EGYPSY ANN
Summer Sweethearts
Now that summer is pretty much over, the usual number of letters come from folks who are worried about their summer sweethearts. They imagine themselves in love with the wonderful person they met in Europe, Atlantic City, Pittsburgh, and London, they do not receive answers to their letters, or if they do, the answers don't sound so encouraging.
Take my advice and forget the summer romances. Most likely the person you flirted with has a sweetheart back home and he or she is trying to "let you down" gently. If you have a sweetheart, stick to that sweetheart and cast the new glamour from your mind. Don't believe "summer" tales about the property, Cadillacs, stocks and high positions. Stick to the faithful one at home. At least you know what that person has or hasn't.
For "Twenty-one" and 'Bachelor' Dear Eggy Ann:
My experience has been profitable to me and I can offer suggestions to both "Twenty-one" and Disgusted" and "Bachelor." Fair play in all walks of life means much. The youths of 1928 are strong, bold and courageous. Think of all the disgusted people who have to go through, and yet they stand up for what is right.
"Twenty-one" (should hold fast. She can win with her high ideals. In fact, we need more like her. Encourage the younger ones and you'll be surprised. Life is a joke. You can have them store my wedding ring came from! I wasn't an owner of an engagement ring, I'm glad to say. Maybe I would have thought more about the ring than the man, like some girls—then, again, maybe not. Ideas are too full of "I." Important Mr. Somebody: Ha! Ha! Does he stop to consider his faults and how he could improve himself? My heart has some love scars and I admit you can't be happy without them, either. Time is all things and I'm anxiously waiting. CURIOUS.

paring this action for trial. Nelther Earl Dancer nor Mr. John
Dancer hae produced the original contracts or made hia ap-
porrance at our office. We therefore urge you to seo that you
Personally make an effort to get In touch with Messrs. Earl
Bnd John Dancer and Inform them that without the contracts
and thelr personal presence, as gtated above, we cannot pre-
pare this oase for trial and we will not appear at the trial
thereof.
Furthermore, we must hear from you Immediately upon

Mr. Schuyler Sends Interesting Letter
WE have a very Interesting letter trom Mr. George S. Schuyler, one of
the editors of the Messenger Segazine and ono of the most brilliant
young men now engaged in showing us up in our true light so that those
df us who ean accept eriticisia without the usual display Of exposed nerves
fan correct our faults.
Mr, Schuyler's letter {s on what he terms a most deplorable state of
affairs at the Lafayette Theatro, where the ushers are concerned. We also
have a letler fro Mr. Willlam Jones, und in Justice to the management
withheld both communteations for a time. ‘The letter of Mr. Scuuyler,
ike everything he writes, carried such a sincere touch of conviction we
did Mr. Frank Schiffman the justice of placing it In his hands for a remy
since ifr. Schiffman informed us that the charges made by Mr. settler
are without foundation, - z
Whether Mr. Schiffman replies to Mr. Schuyler's letter or not, ft {s
our intention to reproduce It In these columns in our next issue. We can-
not see why the Negro newspaper should hesitate In serving the people
the same ag the white newspapers, and it [s only the close personal
contact that 1s malntained between theatre owners and the newspapers Jt
the community that prompted vs to allow Mr. Schiffman the opportuntty
to reply to the letter In the same issue in which we planned to run It
‘Mr. Schiffman has fatled to make his reply {n time for this Issue of our-
taper, whether with mtent or not we are not In a position to say. We do
know that Mr. Schiffman is a very busy man, but he had that letter tong
enough to have made a reply.

Actors Should Form Protective Association
Witt the coming of the regular theatrical season the colored actors,
habitat Harlem, should take steps to form a protective association that
‘will take away oven the doubts surroanding the uncertainty of recelving
thelr money at the end of a week's work. Such an association would elso
jbo farreaching in that producers having a just cause for complaint can
‘take up the matter with thelr own associates, coming together to roctity
‘the ills of which, they complain, 3
Jt is useless for actors to be sending us letters complaining of what
certain thoatrical managers are doing, We have got to do those things
which are golng to help us on our upward cllmb for ourselves, It Wwe «ers
‘concerned with what tho managers are doing to us we could All this space
with the kind of sefsational motter that would make quito a few managers
seratch their heads and wonder how {t is possible for us to securo the
smformation which 1s at our hands and which we simply allow to remain
jon ice for, as tho Germans used to say, THE DAY,
| Who will be the Moses to rise up {n tis wildernoss of ignorance and
ond is neople on the stage into the 1and of promise? The actot enioys
a splendid opportunity to show the way to our mon in other lines of actty-
ity—to show them what Is the true meaning of co-operation. For thelr
sown salvation producers and others in the profession should attempt to
form an association NOW, Down with the sin and whiskey Joints which
are making old women of so many chorus girls and up with Intelligence.

BIT of scandal broke in Saratoga the other day and Mrs. Carey Strong (the name is fictious) wanted to be the first to carry the news across the street to her neighbor. She hurried over and, strange to say, dropped her false teeth on the way. Anyhow, the teeth were never found.—We are not detectives, but we offer the suggestion that should Mrs. Strong suffer any pains in the stomach, she may accept it as a reasonable explanation for the mysterious disappearance.
A New Fraternity
THE AMERICAN LIFE magazine of Chicago carlos a story in its current issue in which Arthur J. Riggs asserts that the I. B. P. O. E. of W. was organized on September 28, 1928. He may have meant 1895, but if the recent squabbles in the local lodges are to be taken seriously, it would seem that the fraternity now is in the process of organization.

We were much surprised, however, to see him the next day making a fiery address to a good-sized crowd at the corner of 18th street and Seventh avenue. Very likely this gentleman classed himself as a stump speaker, and not as an orator.
Right-O!
DELEGATES to the National Negro Democratic Convention at Cleveland disagree upon the exact date that Negro slaves were first brought to America. However, the majority decided that the first cargo arrived at Jamestown, Vn., in 1619.—What does it matter? It stands to reason that we came here as slaves and have been slaving for one thing or another—high browns and the yellows—ever since.
Preserved Peach?
A YOUNG Philadelphian, 25 years old, has just divorced his young and beautiful wife to marry a woman who is 41, to the surprise of his friends and relatives. We'll concede that it is a bit unusual. However, some women, like wine, improve with old age.
Your Horoscope BY THEARCHER
The birthyear for September 12 holds gain in old plans and ideas and promises some loss through friendship. Saturn imposes delay, and opposition, and causes developments to be retarded. The health should be well-guarded.
September 13 promises some favorable developments in business affairs when patience and good judgment can be used. Romance and marriage will be unhappy for many, and there will be gain in social affairs and business.
September 14 promises many adjustments in romantic and domestic affairs that will prove more or less for the best. This birthyear will bring success to those who are interior decorators or florists. There will be a need for much patience and good judgment.
The birthyear for September 15 promises success and social honor to those who can use the best of judgment and patience. Those who are in business for themselves should be able to gain financially. A very good year this will be.
September 16 will bring financial worries to many in this birthyear. Those who are chemists and workers in oils and liquids will be able to get ahead. Speculation is very adverse. Patience and quiet efforts will bring more gain.
The birthyear for September 17 brings some success. Financial and domestic matters will cause some worry. Sudden changes and readjustments will not prove favorable. Patience and quiet efforts will make the year pass successfully.
September 18 promises some gain and success in the employment. Sudden changes are not well favored. A bit of domestic worry will prevent the body in the purity of the food and liquids in the body from be assured, so that no injury to the health will be incurred. Romance is adverse.

A Key to Culture
By LEOLA LILLARD
Strozier Active in His Election District
The Value of Courtesy
T IS impossible to tell the value of courtesy. Some day the people who have learned to measure us will be able
What a different world this would be if we would only welcome the sunshine that tries to enter the doors of our lives, the virtue that is ours for the holding. We miss so much happiness, all because we do not understand that it is made up of the little things. Not big money, big accomplishments or fame, but the little deeds of kindness, the little words of love (even though they often go without recompense) happily the world and rebound growth associated with soils. What a burning concretence and a restless mind the evil ones must have. How cruelly and laboriously they strive to shut the sunshine out of everybody's lives—and even their own.
One of the most effective dots of kindness is shown by a courteous manner—when it is genuine, of course, for otherwise it is only mockery. An apparent courteous act emanating from an evil, designing mind, is more damaging in the end than helpful. There is even danger in too much courtesy, for every virtue becomes a vice if it is carried too far. Frank rudeness is better than servility or hypocrisy.
There are hundreds of definitions of gentlemen, none of them altogether satisfactory. Cardinal Newman says it is almost enough to say that they are those who never give pain. Barrow declares that they are the men lifted above the vulgar crowd by two qualities: courage and courtesy.
It is a polite and pleasant fiction that courtesy is innate and not acquired. We hear much about the "born lady"; we think it is mythical. Babies are not polite; kings and queens have lifelong training in the art of being polite.
Getting into the habit of showing courtesy at home toward members of the household, as well as toward your fellow workers in business, is a good starting point.
There are many who have society or special manners for superiors; there are those who are courteous and kind to people they are particularly fond of, forgetting entirely about the detriment they do themselves in neglecting to establish the good-will of every body.
The value of courtesy cannot be estimated too highly. Its presence has a greater influence and drawing power than most any other developed quality. Though

MUSIC
Madame Roberta Dodd Crawford, noted lyric soprano of Chicago, Ill., now in Paris preparing for her French debut in November, was a recent guest of Roland Hayes, celebrated tenor, at his country home, Villa Pierre, in St. Germain, a suburb of Paris. Mr. Hayes is completing preparations for his coming American tour.
Marian Anderson, nationally known contralto, met with admirable success in her debut in Queen's Hall, in London, last week.
The London Dally News criticised her as follows: "Marian Anderson has a fine voice, big range, and exceptional technique. She sang Verdil's well-known arla, 'O Don Fate' with fine effect." The London Daily Mirror is quoted as follows: "The singing of Verdil's 'O Don Fate' by Marian Anderson deserves a word. Hers is a voice of fine quality through its entire range, and she delivered the big phrases with an understanding of their style."
Miss Anderson is due to arrive in this country early in October and is scheduled for an appearance at the Academy of music of Philadelphia on October 12, under the auspices of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity.

I take this channel to thank the many and many friends of my wife for their kindness during her illness and kind tributes and words of sympathy to me in my dark hours of sorrow, and to her sleepy peacefully in Evergreen waiting the call of the angels. She was a good wife and a pal. She took up fraternal work as a new field of labor, as she saw many laborers were needed in church and fraternal work her record stands as a one monument.
I wish to thank the national grand master, W. M. H. Fields, who was so loyal to her and stood behind her in this broad field of labor. I wish to thank her for her sympathy from the thirty-one states of the A. U. K. and D. of A. I wish to thank Dr. A. C. Powell, pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church, for his comforting words of sympathy and the true praise of his wife. Fraternally and sincerely, HENRY MATTHEWS.

Selections from "Op.
that Holstein will now become an active candidate for the office in Atlantic City next year.
Holstein, who saw the futility of making the run this year, may form a committee of force, who have now developed a bigger voting power than that of New York. If such a combination is formed, next year's convention may be handpicked, with a handpicked, machine-controlled attair. Monarch Lodge's vote repeatedly was split around 25 to 5 against all administration plans. Dr. Hudson J. Olver was chairman of his lodge's delegation.
As the result of the grand exalted ruler's endorsement, New York City will put up a representative that will put up resistance for Elks throughout the jurisdiction of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. The proposition was submitted by Henry Manhattan, passed exalted. He will be president of the newly formed corporation, that will employ thirty or more people. Mrs. May Henry of Chicago, will be sponsor the proposition, which he offers back the factory with $60,000 and the Russell Manufacturing Company, a New York concern, has offered to the resources of the foundation, the launching the factory only awaits the official signature of the grand exalted ruler.
Among the old-time convention faces missed this year in Chicago was that of J. Dalmus Steele, former coach at one time a hot contender for the grand exalted rulersht. Steele, who is not with the present ruling factors in Manhattan Lodge, was not realizing the impossibility of accomplishing anything against the machine, hence he was willing to remain. Another famed Manhattan Lodge member of that of Samuel J. Battles, George E. Wibecan, past grand exalted ruler, was another who was among missing, as was N. A. Norrell of Richmond and Bill Turner of Wheeling.

They argue also that since candidate for the Presidency is a North Carolina to give the Negroes their due than a North Carolina. But here comes the dilemma. If one any specific pledges to the Negro, the Solid South, their surest stronghold not make such pledges or give the Negro to his rights, they will forfeit the Negro the election. In short, they are trying while they pull hairs out of its tail.

THE NEGRO VOTE in this Presidential campaign is one of the most complicated problems that party managers have ever had to deal with. In Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri and New York the Negro vote is large enough to turn the tide in a close election. Both parties, therefore, are actively fishing for it, and both parties are embarrassed in their fishing.
THE DEMOCRATS are making the most of the fact that the Republican party has not made an aggressive stand for the Negro's rights. They argue also that since the Democratic candidate for the Presidency is a Northerner he is more likely to give the Negroes' due than a Western Republican. But here comes the dilemma. If the Democrats make any specific pledges to the Negro they will alienate the Solid South, their surest stronghold. But if they do not make such pledges or give the Negro some assurance as to his rights, they will forfeit the Negro vote and perhaps the election. In short, they are trying to keep a cat quiet while they pull hairs out of its tail.
THE REPUBLICANS are trying to do the same thing. They are attempting to hold the Negro vote while making a bid for the Southern vote. They ought to know by this time that these two cats cannot be kept in one bag. In fact, the present Lily White policy of the Republicans has done more to alienate the Negro voter than the Republican party's consistent dodging of the disfranchisement question.
FOR TWENTY YEARS Republican leaders have been chasing a pipe dream—the breaking of the Solid South. They imagine they have a good chance to do it this year because many Southerners do not like Governor Smith. But when election day comes that dislike of Smith will amount to exactly nothing. The South never cared for Cleveland, or Bryan, or Parker, or Hancock, or any other Northern Democrat, but on election day it always turned out in full force to pote for them. And for all the talk of wetness and Tammany Hall and Popish government, the South will vote for Smith this year. The Republican party had better face this fact. It had better abandon the Southern pipe dream, return to its original principles and make sure of the Negro vote.
NEGROES AND THRIFT

STILL TRUE, however, that Negroes they do. If the Negroes when just our assist $57,000,000 in the Freedman's Savings of the Negro of today, with his greater ease, could lay by ten times as much. If a job would promise himself (or herty dollars in the bank at the end of the race would increase by millions. Said the Negro will have to come to it.

RE is this "whispering campaign" against it the Democratic newspapers are making to them the vilest slanders of the circulated under cover; people are about his principles, his habits, and his reliance. Whatever Governor Smith's enmity have said against him has been said in the press.
IN WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE attacked record in the legislature he did not whisper himself at length and so publicly the papers printed his remarks in detaillorn drinks? Mr. Villard said it public several months ago, and named the number Some people oppose the Governor on them; do they whisper their opposition? shouting it from the housetops ever since opened the question a year ago in all these attacks there has been no hint of whispering. The Democratic paper honest attempt to create sympathy for picturing him as the victim of cowardly SECRETARY MOSES, to answer the issued a statement showing that in his appointments during his four terms, protestants than Catholics and more Repubs, and that eleven appointees were Jews, that in all the list of major appointment Negro. Perhaps it is "whispering" to call to this glaring fact.
ATTORNEY JAMES C. THOMAS has forwarded a letter which he received from Mr. Louis Marshall, a member of the firm of Guggenheimer, Untermyer & Marshall, and a trustee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The letter, in part, says: I note what you have said as to the fact that Negroes are spenders. I would very much prefer that they should be savers, and that would enable them to do many things which under existing conditions are beyond their reach. While in these days a somewhat unfashionable to prescribe the homely desire of those and economy, I really feel that no greater good could come to the Negroes than that they should be imbued with the importance of these virtues.
THIS IS AS TRUE as it was thirty years ago, when Booker T. Washington started saying it. It is also true that it is much harder for the Negro to save money, especially in large cities, than it is for other races. With so many opportunities closed to him, he makes less money than others and he is so gouged and exploited that he has less chance to save the little he does make. This may sound like self-pity, but is a brutal fact.
IT IS STILL TRUE, however, that Negroes could save more than they do. If the Negroes when just out of slavery could deposit $57,000,000 in the Freedman's Savings Bank in ten years, the Negro of today, with his greater wealth and intelligence, could lay by ten times as much. If every adult Negro with a job would promise himself (or herself) to have even twenty dollars in the bank at the end of the year, the wealth of the race would increase by millions. Saving means sacrifice, but the Negro will have to come to it.
NOBODY IS WHISPERING
WHERE is this "whispering campaign" against Governor Smith that the Democratic newspapers are making so much of? According to them the vilest slanders of their candidate are being circulated under cover; people are whispering things about his principles, his habits, and his religion. This is not true. Whatever Governor Smith's enemies in or out of his party have said against him has been said openly, in speeches and in the press.
---
WHEN WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE attacked the Governor's record in the legislature he did not whisper about it; he expressed himself at length and so publicly that even the Democratic papers printed his remarks in detail. They say the Governor drinks? Mr. Villard said it publicly in The Nation several months ago, and named the number of drinks per day. Some people oppose the Governor on the ground of his religion; do they whisper their opposition? No; they have been shouting it from the housetops ever since Charles Marshall opened the question a year ago in a magazine article. In all these attacks there has been no whispering and no hint of whispering. The Democratic papers are making a dishonest attempt to create sympathy for their candidate by picturing him as the victim of cowardly tactics.
STATE SECRETARY MOSES, to answer the "whisperers," has issued a statement showing that in the list of the Governor's appointments during his four terms there were more Protestants than Catholics and more Republicans than Democrats, and that eleven appointees were Jews. It is significant that in all the list of major appointments there was not one Negro. Perhaps it is "whispering" to call the public's attention to this glaring fact.

The Negro in the Next Congress
THE swan song of George H. White, the last Negro member of Congress from North Carolina, still resounds in the ears of those who heard it. He predicted that his race would return to the seat of national legislation, and the next time with sustained and staying power. A quarter of a century has intervened and his prophecy awaits to be fulfilled. But the hour is now at hand. The next Congress will undoubtedly have a Negro member it may have several
Negro candidates have been selected in Chicago, St. Louis and New York. The success of the race candidate in Chicago is practically certain; in New York, like in St. Louis, possible. Just as the Negro organization the Republican organizations of the South he is gaining an effective foothold in the North. The Alderman must hold sway over his ward; the State Legislator, over his district; the Confrontation district; the Governor, over his State, and the President, over the nation. In all of the cities where Negroes reside in large numbers they constitute the majority of the population in one or more wards or black heirs; in several cities the majority in Congressional districts.
This is certainly true in Chicago, from which city we expect the first Negro Congressman. While the race probably does not constitute the majority in the so-called Negro district of St. Louis, yet the exigencies of political divisions may, through good hap, land a Negro into Congress. On the other hand, Harlem consti-

He says that instead of educating the masses the paper takes pride in publishing filth and dirt.
THAT IS a very easy thing to say. From childhood, however, we are taught that actions speak louder than words. In spite of what Mr. Smith says, he admits that he never lets a week go by without reading The Amsterdam News. The same thing is true of at least 100,000 other people in New York who read the 30,000 copies printed each week—more than any two competitors combined. A newspaper must respond to the public demand, and when the public shows more interest in a baptism than in a murder, it will gladly be accommodated. It is a common fallacy that a paper approves of everything it prints.
IT.WOULD be a good idea for Mr. Smith to write a letter telling why he reads The Amsterdam News every week.

THE LADY Mayor of Southampton, England, has just completed a visit to this country. She says that American men are too kind to their women and that the women do not appreciate it.
MANY AN American woman, pensively rubbing a black eye or wondering where her cheating sweetheart is, will ask where the Mayoress got that idea. American women are so used to being told by polite foreigners that they are the cream of the earth that they have come to believe it and to look upon their men as inferiors. Now a sharp-eyed foreign woman comes along and tells them their men are too good for them. It is certainly time somebody caid a good word for the American male.

attitude. It would be far better if you would render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and unto—the things that are. I also notice that your paper is very orthodox in its attitude on religion, the curses of the Negro peoples of the world. It seems to me that where this Christian God reigns intellectual Liberty is unknown. See the thirteenth chapter in Dauteronomy. This is the religious Liberty of God, the toleration of Jehovah. This Christian religion caused my race to be in slavery for hundreds of years. Perhaps the Bible was inspired upon the subject of Christianity, a civilized world today a clergyman who believes in the divinity of slavery?
If the Christian Bible teaches man to enslave his brother, is it not blasphemous to say that it is the inspired word of God? If you find the institution of slavery upheld in a book said to have been God, what is the object to fix in book inspired by the devil? The twelfth chapter of Leviticus. I say if God is the author of the Bible, the reading of these passages ought to cover his cheeks with shame. Could the most revengful flound, the most malicious vagrant in the gloom of hell sink to a lower mortal depth than able to escape the exodus. Do you believe that the living Father of us all twine the dimpled arms of babes into manacles of iron? Do you believe? Is is possible to love a God who would make such laws?

cago, Negro candidates for Congress are eagerly running over each other, while the Harlem bosses can hardly induce Negroes to run.
I see by The Amsterdam News that, after three refusals, my old friend, Edward A. Johnson, has been induced to run for Congress. He is a scholar; a man of character, substance, standing and experience. He is imbued with the requisite spirit of racial ideals and enthusiasm. He would reflect great credit upon his constituency and his race, if sent down here to Washington.
Oscar DoPriest of Chicago, a veteran politician, will fittingly and efficiently represent his constituency and his people. The Washington Convention already by anticipation, visualized his presence on the floors of Congress.
Mr. McLemore, the St. Louis nominee, though a Democrat, must be all right, because he is a graduate of Howard University. Since George White left Congress a quarter of a century ago he has held national positions only through Southern leaders, who have manipulated national delegates at the Republican convention every four years, and through several members of the National Committee, who represent the highest point on the pinnacle of our political career, sometimes the role has more importance to appreciate the honor and distinction which comes to it by having representatives on the National Committee, the chief governing body of the Republican party. Perry Howard, though heavily embarrassed, is still a trustee of the ruling party in the nation in the area that he has been discredited to meet the demands of his "illy white" supplanters.

LEFT OUT IN COLD
Democrat Writes That Whites Will Probably Be Elected to All Offices.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
The Negro Democrats are wailing and keep interest the movements of Abraham Grenthal and Robert S. Conklin, Republican leaders of the Nineteenth and Twenty-first Assembly Districts, the districts that the Negro voters control. They claim they are the victims of a new kind of political trickery. They charge that the selection of Edward A. Johnson, big man and weary leader for Republican candidate for Congress in the Twenty-first district, where they know a white Republican, cannot be elected, is a trade wherein they are handing the election to Royal H. Weller, the Democratic candidate, on a golden platter, and thus robbing them of a chance to make a campaign for Weller among the black voters putting them out of the political picture in a presidential year.
They can see now that the Congress bait was an insincere gesture held out to the Negroes white the white men, both Republicans and Republicans, bled up all of the local offices for white candidates. The white leaders know that more Negroes vote in a presidential year than any other time, so they film-framed and by all white men will be elected to Congress, the State Senate and Assembly this year. The white leaders arranged this trade and left the Negroes out in the cold.

The displacement of Howard, Davis and Cohen was a condition precedent to Southern white espousal of the Republican cause. But, alas, we may as well face the facts. There is little or no likelihood of regaining the lost battle with any time with which we need now concerne ourselves.
A Negro apologist for Republican misdeeds remarked to me that the undoing of Howard and Davis was merely a personal matter, without racial significance, and that the female representatives are still functioning on the National Committee. My reply was that the shadow follows the substance. Four years from now, when these masculine positions will be filled by white men, what will happen to the white counterparts? The white man is guttile, while the Negro is gullible.
The gaining of political power in the North compensates only in a minor degree for the loss sustained in the South. A national Congressman is an inequable exchange for a National Committeeman.
The next census will tell an interesting story. When reapportionment and redistricting are made on the basis of the population, they know with some deflatteness the political strength of the Negro in the North. One would say beforehand that 125,000 Negroes ought to command the political fortunes of a Congressional district. New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Baltimore, St. Louis and, possibly, Detroit and Cleveland will probably measure up to this requirement because the confidently forward that he a Negro Congressman in the near future, with the power, prestige and promise that such representation implies.
She stopped to talk to mother, and in her broken English stated she had walked over two miles to and from the nearest store. I looked at the woman in childish amazement, as I well knew the nearest store was but four blocks away. I also wondered why moth did not inform the woman of this.
After she had gone into her flat, I asked mother why the woman had walked so far when the stores were but four blocks away and mother answered: "Her religion and her pride of race cause her to deal only with her own kind." How many Negroes are there race causes them to walk only on one block out their way to deal only with their own kind?
One evening, not long ago, as I was walking along Lenox avenue, two very well dressed young colored men were just ahead of me. Coming toward us was an elderly Jew whose clothes were Ill-fitting and rather shabby. Both men were needed a wristwatch and mark one of them made about "that dirty old Jew." Two days later I happened to overhear this same young man ask an acquaintance of his for a quarter. Unknown to these young men, "that dirty old Jew" owns eight five-story houses in Harlem. The Jew is recognized as the busy ant. How long will it take us to observe his ways and be wise?

PARASITE
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
I read with interest a short column in your issue of September 1, in which you referred to the coming visit of that Arabian gentleman, El Ouasf, to our shores.
It appears that E. Ouasf is the winner of the Marathon event at the because Olympic games and, because of dark skin, the Arab-a was hopped upon as a member of the Negro race by sun-down writers."
Now, this is a favorite sport among Negroes, to wit: Annexing all the colored peoples of the world who have achieved any distinction whatever. The Negro is satisfied to sit down and do nothing, while he looks with eagle eye and accomplishes, among other people are accomplishing, and if perhence, some individual of another who happens to be a bue similar to his, achieves something worth while, straight away the Negro is found attempting to bask in reflected glory. It matters not to him that no race on earth wants to claim kinship with him. Instead of bending every muscle to stand on his own, he still persists in playing the role of the jackawk.
I recall the humiliating fact that a few years ago a group of Negroes journeyed to Abissina to compliment that Republic on being black and Negro, but the Abissinai unceremoniously felled the embsasy, advising it that they (the Abissinai) were not Negroes.

Observations of "New" Russia
By JAMES H. HUBERT
THE two contributions of America to world culture are Prof. John Dewey and Negro jazz," said Count
Keyserling, widely known author, during a recent visit to America. Russia welcomed both this summer. It was my good fortune to join in a group of serious-minded Americans, including students, teachers, physicians, from all parts of the States, bent upon getting the truth about Russia. Leningrad, Moscow, Kiev and many peasant villages were visited. We inspected schools, churches, monasteries, museums, hospitals, sanitariums, factories, theatres, workers' clubs, courts, prisons and homes.
Standing in front of the Crinium with the slogan of the Soviet Union written in large letters across the main building, "The Revolution is like a cyclone sweeping everything in its path," asked Prof. W. W. W. Opinion was of Russia, after three months' study, including various conferences.
cational excursions to museums, libraries and other educational centers are conducted for workers under trained supervisors.
Prisons are conducted not for revengeful punishment, but as a means of correction and improvement. Every prison has its life-
He said, "Thus far my brain is in a whirl."
So much has been said about the wretchedness of Russia that one wonders if there can be any good in this Communist Republic. There is evidence of poverty, or at least the absence of luxury. No silk dresses; many unclean houses; here and there beggars in rags. One is prompted to agree with the casual tourist and capitalistic newspapers of America and Englewood, where you can see dogs." But you must not be too hasty. Reserve opinion until you have seen the real heart of Russia. Visit the factories. See them at work. Join them in a game of tennis. Attend the theatre with them. Seriously inquire what the young Russian thinks of new Russia. Immediately you get a different story.
Russia is the largest continuous domain in the world, being about one-sixth the world's total surface. The Union of Socialistic Soviet Republics made up of six republics comprises over 100 nationalities and is the only State based not on Bourgeois principles of private property but on principles of social contract with the State, thus distinguished from all other states in the world. The primary object of the union was "the autonomy of the individual and the voluntary union of all." Russia is today the world's greatest social laboratory. The gradual transformation or shift of interests from mercenary interests to things cultural is perhaps the world's greatest wonder. "All power to the Soviet" all for one "all" is the slogan. Many are renouncing wealth for what are termed the "higher possessions."
Everything—stores and houses included—is owned and operated by the government. Families who, before the Revolution, lived in eight rooms, now live in two and three. Ask them if as does not a family have a library. "A disadvantage, perhaps, but why a family of two occupy more space than needed when families of eight and ten are living in crowded quarters?" Under the pew regime all interest is focused on the individual. Each factory has a neat communal kitchen. Volunteers transformed from one factory to another as needs may be. They are sent to overnight sanitariums, weekly sanitariums and given rest cures, not when asked for but when the committee determines that such is necessary. The volunteer has its recreational club, where tennis, basketball, dance hall, theatre, swimming, etc. are provided. Edu-
Would End Handshaking And Kissing in Campaign
CATSKILL, N. Y. Sept. 10.—A crusade for a "sanitary election campaign," in which kissing and handshaking shall be eliminated as campaign adjuncts, is advocated by the Catskill Examiner.
The newspaper urges that when Hoover announced recently that he did not intend to kiss babies for publication, he unconsciously called attention to the arrival of a new order in politics. "It had been hitherto supposed," says the editor. "that women voters could be enticed by an invitation to line up for hours waiting for the handshake of a prominent official."
Modern hygiene, according to the advocates of the new crusade, has risen up to shield the babies from indiscriminate kissing, political or otherwise. The same principles, they hold, should be applied to, miscellaneous handshaking. Health authorities who have been trained in the handshaking custom should be abandoned, as many harmful organisms can be transferred from hand do hand. According to one eminent doctor, "there is a real risk to health unless precautions of cleanliness are taken in passing voters down a campaign reception

Prisons are conducted not for revengeful punishment, but as means of correction and improvement. Every prison has its factory. New Moscow is the Colony for the Soviet Union. Young men and women from 16 to 23 work and play in perfect liberty; no convoys, no guards. When the colony was opened, criminals were simply given the address and railroad fare and allowed to go alone unscorted. The superintendent's duties consist of supervising and offering care in a colony with full self-government.
Russia's chief need seems to be credit. Her program is based on a five-year period. She is at a loss to understand why American and British recognition has been delayed. She points out that government officials in Russia demonstrate their ability to carry on. Russia has confidence that American refusal is based rather on its disapproval of the present form of government. Russia suffered as did no other country except France in the World War II. Russia, followed by two years of France. The sore cause by years of civil strife is healing slowly.
When you point to Russia's begars (many of whom include former bourgeois who refuse to work), you are told "Our program is not for them but for the youth." With 145,000,000 people bonding their minds and energies not to work, they are not of the kind living that life is more than meat, and the body than raiment, where the very nature of its government is driving out selfishness (and whether one wills it or not, the spirit of altruism is in evidence) one cannot but conclude that the spark is destined some day to spread throughout the world. Ask a young Russian that介include government offer to individual effort? He replies, "Why, an incentive to wealth!"
Before the Revolution, peasant farmers owned about 50 per cent of the land; today about 83 per cent. Lands formerly operated and owned by the crown, the no-merchant was confiscated and divided among the peasants. The Russian believes that land is the gift of God like air and water; only he who applies his labor to it should have it, each according to his needs. Russia welcomed trained Negro farmers to work; now an attorney of Harlem, is there and as one of under secretaries in the Soviet government is making himself felt. Perhaps no land offers just now a better opportunity for the young educated Negro who wants to play a role in the government under the Union of Socialistic Soviet Republics, popularly called the "U. S. S. R."

A VIAL of molten roses
That thaf was broken
In Heaven—
A tender, fragile thing
That blossomed in the East,
Delicately as if it might
Break at any moment
Into a million points and shafts.
The color of dreams,
Of Love.
Of white dove's eyes—
Thus was the sunrise.
