GULAR WEEKLY EDITION Complete in Two Sections NEGROES GUNS PROD WEARY WORKERS AS STORM DEATH TOLL MOUNTS Hurricane Takes Over 1,000 Negro Lives-Whites Draft Men With "No Work, No Food" Order JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Sept. 24.—Disease and pestilence were making their grim march in the wake of the West Indian hurricane today as the task of hunting and burying the dead and rebuilding devastated sections went on ceaselessly in Florida and the islands of the Caribbean. With a death list in the West Indies estimated at nearly 1,000 and the Florida toll placed between 1,000 and 1,500, it was disclosed that race prejudice and segregation aided materially in mounting the total of colored victims. Comprising eighty-five per cent of the dead in Florida, because they were herded in houses along the dikes in the swamp country, tragedy stalked in thousands of families as lions sought new homes. Added to the horror wrenaked upon them by the storm, colored men are feeling the pred of rifles in the hands of whites as they are driven to the tasks of rescuing bodies and rebuilding roads. Garvey to Petition League of Nations Passes Through Paris on No Work. No Food "No Work, No Food" was the edit passed out by authorities in the sections out of West Palm Beach as all colored men were pressed into service. The stench of the dead in their nostrils and the violence if they protested to the workers went about their grim labor. In West Palm Beach County 300 bodies—new white—were fished from the waters overflowing the section. Unknown for the most part, they were hurried to trenches to escape them. Steam shovels and which digging machines were enlisted to speed the work. The fears were held in the Lake Okeechobee and Dyntona Beach seaside. With scores of bodies discovered it was believed that possible hundreds of others seeking work at fall planting were killed. The missing are impossible to estimate. A grim battle for survival was waged at Miami Locks, where the armed survivors managed to save glitter food and were forced to dare that with the whites when threatened with machites and guns. From Palmokee, Fl., came the optimistic report that the races were occupying in digging themselves from the prairies. "Counted Like Dogs" Charges of discrimination flared throughout the state as the white press reported names of the white dead and added the number of colored in numerals only. The "Florida Sentinel," a Jacksonville weekly, in its current issue, carries an editorial lamenting what it termed being "counted like dogs." Epileptics loomed in Florida and the West Indies with sanitary conditions at their lowest level and bodies of the dead floating about in the flooded area. Cases of influenza, pneumonia and typhoid were on the increase with a possibility of being reduced only after more relief workers and funds are provided. Portrait title with 400,000 homes, presented a tragic picture, suicides and attempts at death by the impassible ghetto to the problems already weighing the shoulders of officials. Heeding the needs of struck sufferers in the British West Indies, H.J. Comstock, British consul general, issued an appeal to former residents of the islands now in New York. He said: "Permit me to appeal to British West Indians to come to the aid of their brothers and sisters who have suffered so severely from the recent (Continued on Page 2.)

The petition, which covers thirty pages of printed matter in pamphlet form, in brief asks for, as did the petition that was presented by his delegates to the League in September, 1922, the handling over of the mandates that were given to the Union of South Africa, namely, German East Africa and German Southwest Africa, to the U. N. I. A. and African Communities League. "We feel," it runs, "that if the League will pass over to our control as a race the development of the two late German colonies, we shall be able, within twenty years, to prove to the world and to the League our ability to govern ourselves." The petition attacks President Charles Dunbar King of Liberia and the Firestone Rubber Corporation. The former, he alleges, sold himself to the rubber company, while the latter, he claims, has gone into Africa to make "virtual slaves" of the natives. Furthermore, the petition reviews the injustices inflicted upon the black man in all parts of the world, particularly in Africa and America; speaks of the barring of influential Negroes from Africa, chiefly from certain of the West Indian colonies; attacks the French, British, Spanish, Belgian, Portuguese and Italian rule in Africa. It is signed "Marcus Garvey, President-General, by Constitutional Election, of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, Commissioner to Europe, representing the Black Peoples of the World." White Autoist to Face Death Charge Taxi Driver's Fatal Crash Follows Father's Passing A gray-haired mother sits with her second sorrow in the past ten months in her little apartment at 144 Jefferson avenue, Brooklyn, wille Harold Bray, white, 130 150th street, Queens, awaits trial next. Wednesday charged with manslaughter. His auto, it is alleged, crashed into the taxicab driven by Stanley Gill, 21, killing him almost instantly, and saving a young wife from facing divorce proceedings about to be filed. Gill, whose father died last December, and who had been estranged from his young wife since January, died in the crash Sept. 6. Six passengers in his cab escaped unscathed. He and his brother, Rufus, were the only support of their mother. The fatal smash-up occurred on Chambers street near the approach to Brooklyn Bridge. Mrs. Gill, the mother, has retained the services of William 'J. Carey, white, an attorney, and the Harlem Chaufeurs' Benevolent Association has interested itself in the case. With trial set for last Thursday. THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News HARDEST HIT BY HURRICANE MYSTERY SURROUNDS THE KIDNAPPING AND RETURN OF HOLSTEIN CASPER HOLSTEIN, photographed Monday in front of his Turf Club at 111 West 136th street, following his release by kidnapper gang. JAIL MAN IN DOLLAR ARGUMENT SHOOTING Accused of having shot Alfred Bright, 157 West 133d street, in the right leg as they sat in an automobile in front of 11 East 135th street and argued over the loan of a dollar, James Edwards, 44, 102 West 131st street, was held in $10,000 ball for a further hearing when arraigned on a charge of felonious assault Saturday before Magistrate Well in Heights Court. Edwards was arrested by Patrolman Sumpter of the West 135th street station. Bright was treated at Harlem Hospital and allowed to return home. Youth Rescues Two Children From Fire Quick action on the part of Elmore Stepney, 18, 157 West 133d street, prevented a possible tragedy Wednesday, when the lad saved two small children from a fire they had started by playing with matches. The children were Joseph and Dorothy Daughtry, four and two years old, respectively, whose mother. Mrs. Rebecca Daughtry, 152 West 133d street, was busy cooking in another part of the house, unaware of their danger. Playing with a box of matches left within their reach, the children set fire to a copy of The Amsterdam News. Young Stepney, who is a Boy Scout of Troop 776 and lives with his mother, Mrs. Sarah McMillan, across the street, saw the flames licking their way about Joseph as he tried manfully to stamp out the fire. He rushed from the fourth floor to the street and into the house and threw out the burning paper, added by Scoutmaster Norman Cobb, also of Troop 776. The children escaped injury and the Fire Department was not called. The rescue was the second made by Elmore in the past four months. In June he added in saving a woman from a fire on Seventh avenue, opposite the Lafayette Theatre. The youth works to help support his family, but is at present out of employment. Bray's attorney asked for and was granted an adjournment until Sept 26. The white man is at liberty on $15,000 ball. AFRICAN VOODOO MAN DEALT "PEN" TERM ON BOGUS DOCTOR CHARGE Alphonso Rojansen Pleads Own Case as He Draws Indefinite Term — Child Death Case Failed Freed on a homicide charge as an autopsy revealed that his little "patient" had not died from effects of his "medicine" and voodoo incantations, Alphonso Rojansen, 26, 209 West 127th street, was dealt an indefinite term in the penitentiary Friday when found guilty in Special Sessions Court of practicing medicine without license. Rojansen, a British West African, who defended himself in court, maintained that he was merely a salesman. He met his undoing as a climax to the death of LeRoy Samuels, three-year-old son of Mrs. Beatrice Samuels, 205 East Ninety-ninth street, who died from tetanus after being treated by the fake doctor. Mrs. Samuels told how Rojansen came to her home, received $180 in payment, rubbed the limbs of her son while muttering in an unintelligible manor, put the young man (Continued on Page 2.)

Woman Dies in Church, Attending Revival Service Emma Hudson, 50, 405 Edgecombe avenue, died suddenly of heart failure at 2 o'clock Friday morning while sitting in the Beulah Baptist Church, 24 West 133d street, where the Rev. Mr. Mason, the pastor, had just closed the first of the ten-day revival services of the church's second annual convocation. Prayers were said over her body while someone summoned Patrolman Green of the West 135th street station, who called Dr. Stein from Harlem Hospital. The woman was dead when the physician arrived. He announced that death had been due to heart failure, and it was revealed that she had received no previous medical treatment. It was reported that she had been "healed and saved" at a revival meeting in Atlanta, Ga., some time ago. AMSTERDAM NEWS SCOOPS CITY WITH FIRST INSIDE STORY Detective Boyden Reduced to Ranks Enright Appointee to Pound Pavements in Brooklyn Detective William Boyden of the West 135th street station, said to be the first Negro to be appointed to the Detective Division, was reduced to the rank of patrolman Monday afternoon and sent to the Liberty avenue station, Brooklyn, to pound the pavements in uniform. The reduction carries with it a decrease in salary of $1,000 a year, it is said. Boyden was promoted to the Detective Division by former Police Commissioner Enright and was assigned to the Commissioner's office in a confidential capacity. The demotion was made public Monday night at Police Headquarters. Boyden is now on vacation leave. He was called to Headquarters yesterday. The Reason On Friday night Boyden and several other detectives and some friends, including one George Walton, were in 201 West 145th street. Boyden was in the front room while the other men were in another room playing a friendly game of cards. Captain Zieg Keller, from Police Headquarters, walked in and approached Boyden and asked him to turn over his gun and shield. Boyden obeyed and was told to sit down. No one else was brought in for questioning, it is said. Twice Boyden said, "Captain, may I speak with you?" The second time Captain Keller is said to have replied, roughly, "Sit down, before I smug (strike) you!" Finally Boyden arose and walked out. Captain Keller took Boyden's gun and shield to the Sixteenth Precinct and Boyden was called for questioning. Captain Keller asked Boyden if George Walton owned the place in which the card game was being conducted, it is reported, and Boyden replied, "Walton does not own it." It was reliably reported yesterday that, if Boyden had replied in the affirmation, he would not have been reduced in rank. Observers declare that this incident marks the beginning of an effort to railroad Nogro detectives out of the Department. Doyden was a first grade detective and rated as an acting sergeant. He is said to be the only one in the Department who is acquainted with all of Harlem's popular criminals. He has been very helpful in breaking in new men in the Detective Division and had won the highest respect and esteem from his fellow workers. It was announced yesterday that a committee of Harlem citizens was being formed to present a protest to Commissioner Warren and to ask for an investigation of the affair. 'THE MAN IN THE STREET' WILL BE FOUND THIS WEEK ON PAGE 8. EXTRA REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION WHEREVER Possible Trade With Stores in Harlem That Do Not Practice Discrimination in the Selection of Their Employees. Confidence of His Friends and Sleuths Working on Case That He Would Return Alive Created Suspicion The element of mystery surrounding the disappearance Thursday night and the return early Monday morning of Casper Holstein, wealthy Harlem sportsman, has not entirely been dispelled, and perhaps never will be. No one—neither the police nor Holstein himself—knows where he was taken and held captive when he was kidnapped by gangsters who demanded $50,000 ransom. Holstein said he was blindfolded all the time. The mystery deepened throughout the tense period of his absence when it was persistently reported by those supposed to be in "the know" that "everything is alright," "he is in good hands," "yes, he has been heard from and he is in good health," "no, they did not beat him up," and "he'll be back at least by Thursday." Holstein himself said that one of the gang leaders who had him in custody was a "very nice fellow." Except for hunger and a few bruises Holstein seemed not much the worse for his ordeal, and he greeted everyone with a happy smile. Companion of Cabaret Owner Held on Charge of Assault Frank Gibbs, 26, a chauffeur, 219 West 136th street, charged with simple assault upon Leonard Brown, a taxi driver, 400 Manhattan avenue, was arraigned in Night Court Sunday night and released under $500 bond to appear in Heights Court Monday morning before Magistrate Glatzmayer, who continued the same bail and, at the request of Brown, adjourned the case until Friday. Gibbs, in company with Edwin Small, proprietor of Small's Paradise, a night club at 135th street and Seventh avenue, was driving Small's Cadillac coupe at this street intersection when he was struck from the rear by Brown's taxicab. Small's car was only slightly damaged, it is said. Both Gibbs and Small, witnesses declared, got out of the Cadillac and began to abuse Brown, and before the taxi driver could leave his seat both of them struck him in the face with their fists. Bystanders protested against the alleged unfair treatment. Small left the scene of the disturbance, but before Gibbs drove off he was placed under arrest by Patrolman Jackson of the West 133th street station. When Gibbs told his story to Desk Lieutenant Gerken at the police station, he was advised to apply for a summons for Small at the Magistrate's Court. Those who gave their names as witnesses to appear against Gibbs and Small were H. H. George, head of an investment company bearing his name, and W. H. Hansen, 2504 Seventh avenue. Holstein's appearance was quite unkempt, but he appeared to smile a little too brightly for a beaten man without food for three days. He wore a gray suit and overcoat. Blood stains were on his fancy purple shirt, but none on his blue, striped tie. His shirt was open at the tifront. More Kidnappings Planned? On the person of one of the prisoners the police said they found a list of wealthy Negroes who were to be kidnapped. The names are said to have included Edwin Small, proprietor of Small's Paradise night club; Junius M. Green, bondsmaster; Leroy Wilkins, night club owner, and Jack Nail and Watt Terry, real estate operators. Prior to his disappearance Holstein is said to have sent $5,000 cash and shipped $4,300 in timber to the Virgin Islands, his native home, for storm relief. Rudolph Brown, Alleged "Tipster" Five men, said by the police to be notorious gangsters, were arrested late Saturday in connection with the kidnapping. Prominent among the prisoners was Rudolph Brown, 32, 211 West 149th street, former manager of the Capital Palace cabarre on Lonox avenue near 140th street. The police said that Brown was tpister to the kidnappers, as he is said to have been in close contact with Holstein, many of, whose friends expressed surprise upon learning of Brown's arrest. Brown was recently arraigned in Heights Court on a "numbers" and a larceny charge. The other prisoners were: Michael Bernstein, 32, 1182 Lebanon street; Peter Donohue, 27, a salesman, 1307 Harding park, and Anthony D'Agontino, 28, 1106 Harding park; Moe alias Monty Scherbert, 20, 1100 Block avenue, all white men of the Brock; Schubert and Bernstein are both said to be well known in Harleen night life. All but Bernstein were held without bail. Alleged Ringleader Bailed Bernstein was charged with kidnapping and the other four men who charged with being ac (Continued on Page 2.) INSIDE STORY OF HOLSTEIN KIDNAPPING Amsterdam News Publishes First Exclusive Interview With Detective Sergeant Samuel J. Battle, in Charge of Investigation, Points Out Discrepancy in Story Told Police (Continued from Page One) complices. Bernstein was the only one able to obtain bail. Magistrate Rosenbluth released him from prison under $5,000 bond Sunday at 2:40 a.m. Bernstein's release from prison is said to have been responsible for Holstein's release, as fierce pressure was being brought to bear upon him and his gang by the police, it is reported. Arranged in the Heights Court Monday morning, Bernstein was held in $10,000 bail. Three of his companions, Donahue, D'Agostino and Brown, were held without bail. Trial is set for today. Bennie Wright, a close friend of Holstein, telephoned the Turf Club, 111 West 165th street, about an hour before Holstein's release, that was to be free. Holstein owns the Turf Club, which is the headquarters of the Virgin Islands Council, of which he is the president. When questioned by a reporter Wright would not say whether or not he had been in touch with Bernstein or any of the gangsters. "That is not for publication," he said. A few minutes after one o'clock Monday morning Holstein was placed in an automobile, still blindfolded, he said, and driven by the gangsters to 140th street and Amsterdam avenue. There he was released and immediately took a cab and rode alone to the Warwick 153th street station and presented himself to the police, much to their relief. At least forty members of the Police Department, including Captain Hyams, Lieutenant Shields and Detective Sergent Battle of the Sixteenth Precinct, Lieutenant Hodge of the Fourteenth and others from the Simpson street station had been searching for Holstein. Detective Sergent Battle headed the investigation. Promptly at 1:30 a.m. Holstein arrived at his club and his friends almost wept for joy at the sight of him. Twenty men, including a reporter of The Amsterdam News, enequored to shake hands with him at the same time. He was accompanied by a heavy police escort. The news of his return spread with lightning rapidity. He returned to the police station and told of his encounter. News of Holstein's disappearance was first given to the police on Friday by Edna Davis, 507 Lenox avenue, secretary of the Virgin Islands Council and, it is said, a trusted employee of Holstein. The philanthropist had been last seen at midnight Thursday when he was driven by his chauffeur, Mrs. Leroy, to the home of Mrs. home, to help the friend, at 22 West 146th street. He dismissed his chauffeur and entered the building. Mrs. Whitfield, it is said, had telephoned Holstein at his club, asking him to visit her that evening, and he is said to have replied that he would be over in 20 minutes. Holstein said Monday, knowing that when he go he could not get away, went away, walking as far as 144th street and Seventh avenue. "When I had gotten eight or ten doors away from Seventh avenue on 144th street," Holstein said. "I gave white men rushed me into a hallway. They said I was wanted at Heart quarters, and I agreed to go with them." "They put me in a sedan automobile in which there were also two white women. They drove down Seventh avenue and then doubled back to 144th street in north. Then I became suspicious and demanded to know where they are taking me." It was at this point, he said, that he realized that he was being kidnapped and he began to battle with the men. They struck him on the head three times and then he blinked and added the helium he related to the speed along he felt to make three turns until it reached a house in a quiet neighborhood. Bound and Gagged They took him into what seemed to be a furnished bedroom and he was told to take off his coat and make himself "comfortable." Then they tied his two hands together, first with cloth and then with wires, and his feet were carefully in his shoes manner, he said. Then a line was tied from his hands to his feet and his arms were tied against his body with more wire. They placed a gag in his mouth. From this time on, he said, he was treated "very nice" and even developed a liking for the man who will right with me. Holstein said his captor told him. They kept changing him from one room to another. He could hear women's voices and smell cooking. They brought him food but he refused to eat. He knew he was somewhere in the city as he could "L" somewhere as he could and the sound of trolleys and other traffic. "I heard them curse the tinster," he said. "... The first time they talked of letting me go was Saturday night about 8 o'clock. "They gave us a bum-steer," I heard them say." Had Only $72 When the news spread that Holstein had been kidnapped, it was variously estimated that he had with him amounts ranging from a few hundred up to $10,000. "I only had $72," he told the police. "They look that but left me my watch TWO Had Only $72 and jewelry—two diamond rings. Before they let me go they gave me $3 for taxi fare." The jewelry was worth about $2,000, he said. Bernstein's arrest is reported to have resulted from his calling at the American Exchange-living Trust branch at 167th street and Southern boulevard, in regard to cashing a check drawn on Holstein's account. Bank officials who refused to honor the draft reported the matter to the police, it is said. Another report regarding Bernstein's arrest is that on Saturday afternoon he called Charles King, Holstein's secretary and right hand man, on the telephone and arraigned an appointment with him at 1251 Washington avenue. To prove that he was holding Holstein, Bernstein said he would show King telegram addressed to Holstein. Bernstein is said to have demanded that King pay him $50,000 ransom before he would release Holstein. When Holstein returned he denied that it was he who called Dennis Armstead on the telephone at Monarch Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. W., 245 West 137th street, asking that the police be called off the case and that the ransom money he turned over to the gangsters. "I never used the phone," he stated. When the first three of the five prisoners were arrested they are accused of driving black Peerless coupe, License number Y-23-37, which the police took in their possession. "Never No Sorrow" There is speculation in certain quarters as to whether or not the kidnapping was genuine. Although much sympathy was expressed for Holstein's predicament by the man in the street, none of his lieutenants, it appeared, demonstrated any grave concern over his absence. The general attitude of those on the "inside" seemed to be one of confidence that they knew just what it was all about. Holstein's "business" went on in its accustomed routine. Benjamin F. Brown, Jr., secretary of Monarch Lodge Apartments, Inc., is said to be authority for the statement Saturday that "everything will be all right." The coolest and least worried of all seemed to be the lady he went to see Thursday night, Mrs. Whitfield, who. it is said, always opened her door for him whenever he drove up in his car, but failed to do so on the night of his disappearance. What's the Reason? Holstein was president of the Monarch Lodge Apartments. Inc. now being erected at 112-130 West 133th street, on the site of Marcus Garvey's Liberty Hall, part of which is still standing. The estimated cost of the project is $550,000, and is to include a lodge building costing $300,000. Holstein bought the Liberty Hall property and ground at auction for $173,000, it is said, and Jewish interests are now trying to wrest control of the property. The title was transferred to Monarch Lodge Apartments, Inc., and Holstein is said to hold three mortgages on the property. Two lawyers went to the Turf Club on Friday, the day after his disappearance, and waited for him all day, it is reported, for the purpose of having him sign a $180,000 contract. This was said to be a document of vital importance to the success of Monarch Lodge. As part of the agreement, Holstein is said to have stated he would not sign. And he didn't, not on Friday, anyway. Holstein's was a big name in Elkdom, as he was one of the most influential members of Monarch Lodge No. 45. Observers declare that during the Elks' convention at Chicago about a month ago Elkdom was not at all as grateful to Holstein as he was. Instead, according to his own words Holstein loves liberty, freedom of thought and action. In a published quotation Holstein remarks: "God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it." In the lineup at police headquarters and at Washington Heights Court on Monday, Holstein failed to identify all the kidnappers, except Rudiph Brother, who admitted having known the pest fifteen years. It is said that at one time Brown was Holstein's bodyguard. The police say they know definitely that the prisoners are the men involved in the kidnapping, and would not disclose Holstein's motive—even if they knew it—for failing to identify the men. No threats upon his life or threats of any other kind have been sent to Holstein since his release, the police said yesterday, but the victim's intimate friends are said to know just why he refuses to identify his alleged captors, it is believed. When asked if any further arrests would be made the police said that all those in any way involved in the kidnapping would be finally taken into custody. What questioned on this point yesterday, Detective Sergeant, Battle, chief investigator of the kidnapping, said, "What's the use of making any arrests if the weapon will not identify them." He stated further that another colored tipster would probably be arrested today. He would not reveal his name.

SOLELY AS A MATTER OF NEWS, and without the least prejudice or malice in the world, The Amsterdam News, in its issue for August 3, 1927, following a raid conducted by detectives upon the premises at No. 507 Lenox avenue, in search of violators of the laws against "policy" or "numbers" playing, published several allegations concerning Caspar Holstein's connections with the case. A FEW DAYS LATER, Wednesday, August 17, 1927, to be exact, through Mr. Holstein's attorneys, the General Manager of The Amsterdam News was served with a summons and complaint in a libel action in which Mr. Holstein alleged that his "credit, reputation and general standing" in the community had been damaged by the paper to the extent of $100,000. The suit is still pending. THE AMSTERDAM NEWS is not a rich publication. It could hardly survive a judgment for $100,000, should Mr. Holstein be successful in winning his suit for that amount. Its growth and seeming prosperity in this community may be attributed to its endeavor to print the news of the community without fear or favor, without prejudice or malice. The Amsterdam News looks upon every individual in the community as its friend and potential supporter, and regrets exceedingly that from time to time it is compelled to publish news which is unfavorable to any one of its friends. THERE ARE, however, many daily publications in New York City and throughout the country which would be able to survive judgments ranging in amounts from $100,000 to $1,000,000, and who do not look upon Harlem's large Negro population with particularly friendly eyes. Unlike The Amsterdam News their success or failure is not directly dependent upon the support of the Negro reading public in Harlem. ALL OF THESE DAILY PUBLICATIONS have gone considerably further than The Amsterdam News ever dared to go in publishing news of Mr. Holstein's alleged activities. Their statements of Sunday, Monday and Tuesday concerning Mr. Holstein were not allegations, as in the case of The Amsterdam New, but definite statements of fact. This should give Mr. Holstein a splendid opportunity to show his consistency by calling upon each and every one of them to defend themselves in libel actions for alleged damages to his "credit, reputation and standing" in his community. We believe that it would be inconsistent and unfair for him to continue his action against a publication of his own racial group and let daily publications with millions "get away with murder." Drama Revealed by Police In an exclusive interview yesterday morning Detective Sergeant Battle told The Amsterdam News the following story: informed on Brown as the tipstp Twenty per cent of the $50,000 r$s was to be divided between tipsters, Bernstein told us. At 8 a.m. Sunday we arrested Mor "Regardless of what Holstein said he was not kidnapped near his home at $8 West 144th street, but was taken from the hallway of 225 West 146th street where Mrs. Whitfield lives. We have two eye-witnesses who saw the kidnappers take him away." Holstein's version of the affair was evidently designed to protect Mrs. Whitfield from the spotlight of publicity. "On the night of the kidnapping, he continued "Rudolph Brown was in the Turf Club and had Holstein say that he would be at the Whitfield woman's home in twenty minutes. Brown tipped off the kidnappers and they trailed him there "Edna Davis, 507 Lenox avenue, notified the police and when my investigation revealed evidences of kidnapping I got busy. Detectives Moore and Boyden gave me very valuable assistance in trailing down the kidnappers. The three of us went to the Bronx and consulted with District Attorney McGeehan and Inspector Duane, both of whom gave me their learned co-operation. "We learned that Bernstein was one of the men in the case. Charles King and Edna Davis, employees of Holstel, together with Detectives Bloch, who posed as employees of Holstel, silenced Bernstein and entered into cooperation with him for the release of Holstel. "After about two and a half hours Moe Munty Schubert (one of the prisoners), who said he was "Joe Keller," brought papers from Holstein to Bernstein's office to prove that they had captured him. Monty said that Holstein had been captured by "the Chicago mob" who demanded $50,000 ransom. He told us that unless the cops were called off the only thing we would get would be Holstein's dead body.

Police Captain Prefers Charges Against Cop for Striking Man Under Arrest Police Captain Prefers Charges Against Cop for Striking Man Under Arrest Patrolman William (not Ferdinand) Sumpter of the West 135th street station was summoned before Deputy Police Inspector Pierne, 229 West 123d street, Friday morning, for a hearing on complaint of Captain John J. Noble of the Sixteenth precinct, in connection with Sumpter's arrest of, and alleged assault upon, Allen Brown, 24; 239 West 129th street. It was first reported that Sumpter shot Brown when he escaped from him. Sumpter was not suspended. The specific accusations mentioned in Captain Noble's complaint against Sumpter were: (1) Taking a prisoner to the station house in a taxicab instead of in the patrol wagon; (2) allowing the prisoner to escape, and (3) striking the prisoner, causing a laceration of the scalp. Sumpter related his version of the arrest to Inspector Pierne. He said that he arrested Brown on a charge of disorderly conduct on September 12 in front of 308, West 140th street, where the tenants had complained to him that Brown was acting in a hoisterous and disorderly manner. Prisoner Escapes After arresting Brown, Sumpter said he placed him in a taxicab driven by Samuel Schwartz, white, and started with him to the police station. On the way Brown began to fight with him in the cab, Sumpter resisted, and both of them had to get out of the cab, and the fight continued in Florida Hurricane Workers Under Guns (Continued from Page 1.) tornado.

Prisoner Escapes After arresting Brown, Sumpter said he placed him in a taxicab driven by Samuel Schwartz, white, and started with him to the police station. On the way Brown began to fight with him in the cab, Sumpter related, and both of them had to get out of the cab, and the fight continued in the street. Brown then punched him in the face, kicked him in the stomach and fied, Sumpter said. The officer admitted striking Brown with his club in order to "subdue" him. It was denied in reports last week that Brown assaulted Sumpter. As the prisoner darted into a tenement house and disappeared, Sumpter he fired two shots in the air to summon alud, but denied that he aimed at Brown, who, he declared, was in the house when he fired. Some time later Brown showed up at Harlem Hospital with a friend to have his scalp wound dressed. He told the doctors that he had been shot and the physicians confirmed his statement in their diagnosis. Soon the police arrived and placed Brown under arrest. At first his condition was reported serious, but he was able to be transferred African "Doctor" Sent to Penitentiary (Continued from Page 1.) never wavered in his defense. Without a lawyer he hopelessly argued his own case, faced with an unlabelled bottle of brownish liquid. Other "remedies," none of which he claimed to have put up, stood as evidence against him. His lone defender was John Cox, $00 West 130th street, who testified that Mrs. Samuel's came to Rolansen's office and purchased remedies, and then the customers identified that the salesman received $10 in payment upon one occasion, while prices of the remedies were stated to average fifty cents each. The "doctor acknowledged receiving $15. He was rebuke by Judge Healy as sentence was imposed. "I have no sympathy for you," the jurist defended, "because I became a victim of a man of your race in her moment of desperation and willingness for any sacrifice for her child." Little LeRoy was discharged from Bellevue Hospital June 1, pronounced incurable and doomed to die. Frantice, the mother declared that she readily assented to treatments by Rojansen, who represented himself as a physician. When the little child failed to improve under the massaging and the chanting of what was possibly some West African dialect, he was sent to Yokohama hospital, only to succumb August 26. Rojansen has been in America eight years and intended becoming a citizen, having taken out first papers. to the prison ward at Bellevue Hospital the same day. Physicians at Bellevue, however, denied that Brown had been shot after making an X-ray photograph of the wound. They said he had only sustained a laceration of the scap. The specifications in Captain Noble's complaint were resolved into charges against Summer by Inspector Pierre and the man was sent downtown to Deputy Police Commissioner Felix Muldoon, before whom it will be tried.

When her Prince Charming arrives, she is at liberty to get married. Surely, her friends expect her to live comfortably in an apartment or a private house. When the family income permits, she is supposed to give her rarest contribution to the race—a child or children. This new status in life, however, gives rise to new problems. Many a successful married woman has continued work—before and after the birth of her children. Usual though, she has worked because of a definite objective—there are payments on furniture, new clothes, tuition for the children, and other things to consider. Or, perhaps, her Prince's salary was not just enough to tide over a family comfortably. Strange as it may sound, some married women have continued to work simply because they wanted to do so. The Long Island Railroad Company has decided that beginning January 1 eleven married women clerks are scheduled for dismissal—all because they are married women!

First, she complains of the coffee tasting bitter. I feel quite sure the coffee is the real cause of the entire meal being a failure. Now, you must know what kind of coffee to buy. In buying coffee, keep in mind three things the: blend, the roast and the grind. Experts originate the many blends for the market and they are calculated to appeal to different tastes. Purchase a small quantity of several blends and try them out until you find just the right one for your use. There are several kinds of roasts—light, dark, medium, Italian and French. The South favors a heavy, the West a light, the East a medium roast. The primary reason for roasting coffee is to make it brittle enough to grind, but important chemical changes also take place and produce the characteristic coffee flavor and aroma. If you buy your coffee in quantity, it should be stored in air-tight, moisture-proof containers and should not be kept near strong smoiling foods. There are four different grinds—the pulverized or fine for drip, the medium for percolated and the coarse for boiled coffee. Presuming now you have decided what returned to school Sunday. K.

Never rewarm coffee. The soluble proteins settle out as the coffee becomes cold and the renewed heat causes the acids to decompose and give an unpleasant flavor. Used coffee grounds are of no more use in making coffee than are ashes in kindling a fire. Since most of us are using the percolator, make sure that the small tube is kept clean, for it receives a gummy deposit which will spoil the flavor of the next brew. The chief influence of coffee on the body is the stimulating effect of caffein. Its food value is increased by the use of sugar and cream.

When sweetheart or hubby comes home from work, tired and disgruntled, he wants to come into an atmosphere of sympathetic understanding. He wants you to side with him, to agree with him, to help him think. Make your home atmosphere quiet and peaceful, allow for his weaknesses and remember that he expects YOU—above all others—to be his partner and to agree with him. A little affection, the realization that, after all, men are only overgrown boys, will make your sweetheart desire your company and look to you as the one to whom he should tell his secrets. Dear Maud: I am 32 years old, in love with and loved by a fellow of 21. Do you think that I am too old for him? He is sorious-minded and acts old for his age. What do you advise? MAUD. Dear Maud: You are too old for the boy. He's only a kid. Give him a chance. When you're 40, he won't even be 30. Then, too, a woman ages more quickly than a man. People will be asking if he's your son. Chase this infant away and look for someone your own age or older. Is my advice. EGYPSY ANN. Miss Eldora Mungin, 64 East 114th street.

Your whole appearance is cheapened. Now, all of us are not blessed with good nails, but we are all blessed with opportunities of making them good. Sometimes you feel too embarrassed to go to a manicurist. You will find, however, that most manicurists are glad to help you. They can change your hands almost miraculously. Once the cuticle has been attended to and the nail shaped, you will take an interest yourself and try to keep your hands looking attractive. If you bite your nails, remember you are spoiling your own appearance. Soak your hands in warm, soapy water for about five minutes. Dry them and work gently around the cuticle with an orange stick-wrapped at the end in cotton and dipped in cuticle remover, which can be purchased at any drug store, five and ten cent store or department store. Wipe off surplus skin and rinse. Don't cut the cuticle if you can possibly avoid it! it's better to let a maneuist attend your cuticle if it needs trimming. Apply a little nail white under each nail and very carefully apply nail polish. The vivid polish is not advisable, as it looks too artificial and seldom blends with the color of the hand. A very mild-scented vanishing cream rubbed on the hands makes them soft and perfumes them fragrantly.

Should "A Reader" read your answer to my question "What Drama?" which states your opinion of the theaters of Harlem, he will find an answer to the second part of his letter. I cannot understand, Mr. Doplephys, how anyone—any person, can access over of the facts the degrading shows" up here "for fear of losing a little revenue." Where was "A Reader" last Spring when you pulled letters in between the Negro writer and the Negro actor? Where was he or how did he miss reading your logical, unbiased summing up of the case predicted on the prose between the Negro writer and the Negro actor? Where was he or how did he miss reading your logical, unbiased summing up of the case predicted on the prose between the Negro writer and the Negro actor? Is it easier to criticize a thing than to get bread. Less effort is used to knock than to strive to get butter for that bread. Anyone can say that "is no good." The writer offered for our approval in Harlem as you do, then in a constructive, enlightening and helpful way explains why and the remedy. I think he should be recorded his decision. He will ask your opinion of "Pergy." I shall not soon forget your encouraging talk to me last Spring when I brought my play sweet and amorous other things you stated, "From this beginning strive for Broadway." Happily, you "tender unto Caesar the things that are Caesar in the way that is good," that is what is bad and you unequivocaly say is bad. There is no middle ground, no passiveness. And by this devious path, I came at last to "An Opinion Given," I too feel that you are not the life as it is. "Being the man furthest down should not be a source of satisfaction to us. There are no laurels nor is there competition in that lovely place. I think that those who criticized "lorgy" could write a one-act drama. I sincerely thank you for this question. I had confidence you would treat the subject any open-minded person to understand. Again I thank you. Yours for success. (Signed) J. FORTUNE WOODS. A WORD IN PASSING. The editor is indeed sorry to have to confess that he had utterly forgotten that Mr. Jones, writer of the above letter, had called upon him many years ago, when he was a nature not given to readily allowing a charge to pass by unanswered, but in the case of the letter to which our correspondent has reference decided to let the matter go by the board. Aside from the fact that what little reputation we have gained in the world of the theatre came from our univolupties, we have also had which have for their only excuse undraped females, smutty jokes and an insinuation which any intelligent person could have the trouble of inducing Mr. Theophilus Lewis to step on the conditions. We did this because we had ourselves read with a great deal of appreciation the work of Mr. Jones, magazine; too, we thought it would be timely to let our readers see that we were not the only newspaper man so steadfastly adhering to certain opinions in these columns We believe that a number of our people find it hard to believe that we could maintain such a stand and still retain the respect (and the advertisements) of theatre owners in the community, but such is the case nevertheless. It goes against the grain that as a newspaperman trying to be a good one that we are forced to reproduce certainly orms of news, but that we have done so honestly can be proven by that letter writer who, failing to read, observe and retain, ran adrift on the shoals of inconsistency when he took unlage at the fact that the shows "go over big" and are "hits." The newspaper is not to be blamed for faithfully reproducing the reaction of audiences to a show, nor the manner in which the actors ("J") put over "the audience" with their wavy contended that our audiences are as much to blame, and if I remember correctly the correspondent made a claim that the shows he has in mind do not have. No such thing. It is because the yoke is so strong that smart theatre owners offer them as they have nothing in common with us and we cannot look to them to do these things which we should ourselves do. The audience is so deep despond into which they have been wallowing for night on these sixty years. When the urga comes from within, and not until then, will Hikari say that part of it is occupied by our people, something higher in the theatre, something that will give us an opportunity not only to see the worth of our ambitious actors, but with something that is grounded in race which will make us feel proud of the same time inspire us to reach us. --- NOTE FROM MR. SCHIFFMAN. Dear Mr. Dougherty. BISHOP WARMLY RECEIVED AT ALHAMBRA Packed House Greet Revue at Lincoln Monday Bishop Scoring At the Alhambra Bishop Scoring At the Alhambra Revue and Drama Playlet Again Seem to Meet Popular Fancy The new drama group of the Alhambra Theatre, led by the stalwart Andrew S. Bishop, begins its career with "Under Western Skies," a quick-lit comedy with interplots and a good bit of violence. The only complaint seemed to be that there wasn't quite enough for bishop to do. What he did he played, ignored and easy that brought abound. He wielded back its eminent actor after a lapse of five years. Alozende Fondoz, Norman Johnstone and William Edmonson, the latter just having terminated his eminent downhill, gave splendid support. Ednarr Barr, Estelle Dawn and Edna Harris add the feminine interest. "Harlem Pastimes" is the route that engages the talents of the Alhambra cast. It is Emmett Anthony, Cracksid, S.H. Dudley Jr., Doris Rheubottom, Ida Brown, Mary Clemons and many others. The "wandelle headmistress, Grant and Emma, known as the gals from down home," started a riot of cheers and applause. The new dancing chorus numbers eighteen girls and boys, and they are a great feature in the success of "Harlem Pastimes" and the feature of the triple program is "The Police Patrol" with the wellfilled James Kirkwood and Edna Murphy. At the amble Wednesday midnight the Alhambra's new cast winters "ones" of the profession. And if they get the O. K. that night you can but they are good. Music Firm to Make Better Phonograph Records Information has just come to hand that should prove especially interest- ing. It has just been learned that the Q. R. S. Company, a greatest producer of player piano rolls in the world, are making ratios to place a full line of phonograph records, made by music upon the market. been learned that the Q. R. S. Company perhaps the greatest producers of player piano cello in the world, are making preparations to place a full line of graph records, made by Negro artists, about the market. In recent years, great strides have been made in the production of high grade phonograph records men and women. According to recent reports the Q. R. S. Company will take its place among the leaders in producing the finest type of music by Negro composers and singers. The Q. R. S. Company has been particularly fortunate in securing the services of Art Satherly to direct the art department and the art division. Few men in the field are as well equipped for the position as this great director. For more than 20 years he has been directly associated with the art department, spending the last 15 years with the Paramount Company. Almost every Negro artist of consequence has at some time in his career come in conjunction with friends among the race are legion. Always eager to listen to any ambitious person in the hope of discovering the gates of opportunity and fame to scores of musicians. Thrilling Action in New Thomas Meighan Film The barking of machine guns; the intermittent reports of automatics; the excited howls of a mob gone wild, are some of the miliing high-tech machines that starve story of a fud between a police captain and the leader of a gang of beer runners, now the current attraction this week at the Mansion on the Avenue. As McQuigley, Thomas Meighan gives one of his greatest characterizations in "The Racket," a melodrama of the underworld, adapted from the famous stage play Batman. Guilt, aAwesome man, Hard-boiled and fearless of all elements, Meighan fights the gang leader, Nick Scarsl, which part is portrayed by Louis Wolhelm, one of the most ablue character actors in motion pictures today. multitudinal details connected with the opening of the season for eight thriving theatres have kept me too busy to attend to all the pending matters. And, while I am answering critics, I am to write you a comprehensive letter. So you can tell the anxiously waiting world that your next issue will carry my answer. Schuyler's letter and some other things. Thanks, FRANK SCHIFFMAN In the best of spirit we accept our good friend Mr. Schuyler's apology and can readily see that it would not have done him full justice to set aside his own force and hardly answer a letter written by him. Negroes who usually hit the mail not only square on the head, but with own force to drive it through. However, force to drive Schuyler will continue himself to answering the letter which was placed in his hands for direct answer. No extraneous matter was direct answer. No incorporation in this reply. Anything else须受到 the matter in hand will receive the attention of the censor. Let me tell you that if they must be answered, be taken up. We await that the charge will not be made that we were forced to delete ANYTHING that Schuyler has written. MR. SCHIFFMANS REPLY TO ME AWAIT. TERM OF MR. GEORGE SCHIFFMAN NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1928 Warm Welcome Greets Him M. B. It Was a Warm and Enthusiastic Welcome That Met Andrew Bishop Last Week on His Return to the Scenes of His Early Successes in the Drama. This Week Alhambra Audiences Are Giving Him the Kind of Hand That Leaves No Doubt of His Popularity. Fashion Show at Rock-land Palace Next Week On Friday evening, October 5, the Unique Fashion Club, formerly known as the Designers and Creators of Fashion, plan to bring their annual women's fashion show to Rockland Palace, for many years known as Manhattan Casino, 155th street and Eighth avenue. Mrs. Luli Fields Burney, founder of the organization, seemed much enthused in stating that unusual activity is shown by the members of the organization, a unique, but the best ever held in their exhibition of what the fairer sex will wear this season. Mrs. Interviewing "Farina" THE picture shown in another part of today's paper is an excellent likeness of Allen (Farina) Hoskins, who wants the world to know that in spite of the long years ago last August in the city of Boston, Mass. It is the opinion of an Amsterdam news representative who interviewed "Farina" that he is beyond doubt one of the most popular members of the city. He is a boy, but he has been a member since he was two and a half years of age. "Farina" doesn't talk much, just blurs out a few short sentences and then closes up. He is that droll sort of type not particularly emotional or charming. His mother, his父亲, who is with him here in New York, claims that he has shown more animation during this trip than at any time during his career. The things "Farina" does say he is very charming, and tell them I am a boy and not a girl. "I'm not Sunshine Sammy's sister." IS FOR HOOVER. Hoover will be the next President and the man to vote for, the little star. What in New York are you most anxious to see? "The Statue of Liberty" was "Farina's" answer. "Farina had just returned from a visit to the White House." "What did you think about the Chinamen and the East Side?" "I was afraid of them Chinamen and bandits," said the woman. Retuning a volunteer any more information, the reporter continued to ply him with questions. "What grade are you in school?" was asked. "B7's were afraid of what subject do you like best?" "None," carries back the prompt reply. Farina is accompanied on this tour by his mother and manager. The report author is Farina's friend. The intimacy is President Coolidge's favorite child actor and that Learnie Joy and Harold Lloyd have said "Farina" leads all, they are merely bandits. After all, they are millions of movie fans.

We speak of Mrs. Maria C. Downs. A Warning From Europe To the Profession Berlin, Germany, Sept. 10, 1925. Caro of American Express Company, 55 Charlottenstasse. Dramatic Editor, I am writing you just a few lines in order to inform you with regard to the present conditions in Europe, which you will perhaps see fit to print on your paper as a warning. At the age of six you seem to believe that it will be easy to reach stardom if they can only take a trip to Europe, and that on this side they will have an easy and successful life, which is far more exceptional than anything else, nothing exceptional to offer in the line of talent would do well in the extreme careful and not to consider a European trip without first getting a proper contract reliably. I am not sure how much the same applies more or less to the majority of our people who even if they have met with considerable success upon their arrival in Europe, in the long run find themselves over here and therefore are forced to drift along, and in some cases might even become a public burden. It would therefore perhaps be advisable to publish some statement along with the work and employment in Europe is not as varied and abundant for colored artists as in the United States, "HARD TO RULE WOMAN BLUES" by Ramblin' Thomas HARD luck is sighl! He finds it's pretty hard to rule a woman these days without having an automobile. In fact, he sings, "I want to be like a certain automobile man I know who makes small cars" (in the song, Ramblin' Thomas even mentions his name) "I want to have a car and a woman running on every road". Anyway, he's out of luck and he needs an automobile to hold his family together, and he tells all about it in a funny way with some hot guitar playing in Paramount Record No. 12670.

PARAMOUNT—The Popular Record Items From Europe By IVAN H. BROWNING. Negro artists in Europe are doing fine and it looks like another big season for them on this side. Jimmy Ferguson uses shortly at the big palace with the new Chayton and Waller show; also Walter Robinson, well known tenor, who arrived recently direct from the Regal, Chicago. Greenlee and Drayton have arrived in London and opened Sept. 14 at Chaz Ttaglion in their latest dancing act, with two clever American gigs. They are booked for three months with an option. The popular team of Layton and Johnstone are busy as ever and are at the Victoria Palace this week in London. The three Eddies are touring the Stoll Hall and are always a hit. Scott and Whalley are playing the Holborn Empire this week, but will return to their Revue next week. Kent and Bernice, excellent dancers, are the Holborn Empire's theater week and with Harriet their clever pianist, are a big hit. The Four Harmony Kings are at the Ralto Cinema, Liverpool; after a three weeks' run they return to the Pallidium, London, next week. Paul Robeson is the most popular artist in London today and his recital at Drury Lane last week is still the talk of the West End. His easy going genius way have won many friends for him. Noble Sissle has returned to London after a long run at the Ambassadeurs in Paris. Josephine Baker is appearing in Berlin indefinitely at the Theatre de Weston. The English production of "Blackbirds" is at the Hackney Empire this week and Williams and Taylor, Johnny Nitt and Eddie Hunter are the outstanding hits. Loule Douglas, the fine dancer, is a tremendous success in Berlin at the big Max Reinharte Theatre. Sam Wooding and band are at the Martin Rogue in Vienna this month. The band is a big hit always. Misses Peters and Anderson of New York are appearing with Greenlee and Drayton at the Chez Taglioni in the West End, London. Francis Mores, noted baritone, is still in Berlin and giving concerts throughout the Continent. and moreover that the productions of mediocre types of performers are demand. A hint to the wise is sufficient. Gold diggers should beware! With kindest regards. Yours very sincerely, U. S. THOMPSON. "HARDY Edited by Romeo L. Dougherty Mamie Smith Hits At the Lafayette Mamie Smith Hits At the Lafayette Popular Blues Star Repeats Former Success for Harlem We stood in front of the Lafayette Theatre at about 4:30 Monday afternoon as the matinee audience poured from the doors. The crowd was in rare good spirits. As two laughing ladies passed us one remark: "say, but that show just won't stop. It is certainly the best I've seen in years." And that seemed to be the general impression. Amble Smith and the "sugar" audience is a hit if ever there was one. The outstanding star of the show, of course, is mame Smith. This is the first time in four years that she has appeared at the Lautryate. She is possessed of a splendid voice and of zeach and mannerisms watch place her in the front rank of comediennes and "blues" singers. Monday's audience accuses her of ever deserved more appreciation. "Sugar Cane" has a cast of forty-seven—a wonderful company of players. A pleasing story runs throughout the play, songs, songs, and comedy sketches specialties following each other in igniting succession. The cast includes: Geneva Washington, the most soprano Harlem was heard in the play; Gustafport and Brown, Jesse Cryor, until recently the star of Drake and Walker's shows; Andrew Fairchild, Johany Jenkins, Original Fiedmont, Wayman Niles and other stage actors; the clips "stopped the snow," Monday, Cryor was forced to answer six encores. The chorus of twelve girls is exceptionally good, both singing and acting by a fourteen-piece band under the aole direction of Coleridge Taylor. The feature photoplay for the week is "The Yellow Lily." Bitter love the star, the Yellow Lily is patient, the Bride, in which Miss Dove rose to motion picture stardom. At the Douglas If we needed any further proof that Emil Jankings is the screen's greatest character star "The Street Sink" which comes the Douglass, would you imagine this man strokes of motion picture literature with its daring treatment and amazing fidelity to life will color your thoughts for months. He debuted in "The Way of All Fresh" was a sensation. "The Last Command" established his reputation among us. "The Street of Sin," set in the seedy town of New York, was his own creation. It was written from his original idea by Josse von Sternberg and Benjamin Glazer and was directed most ably by Mauritz Stiller, who seems to sense fully the great galus of the German actor. Bill Robinson's Stand How Mark Hellinger Saw the Affair at the Liberty Theatre Last Week (From Daily News) BILL ROBINSON is a colored hoofer. More than that, he is probably the finest dancer and/or colored, in the whole wide world. For thirty years he has communicated high respect upon the stage. He has never, to my knowledge, refused to play a benefit—regardless of whatever the beneficiary was white or black. Before going further, it may be that you have heard bits of this little story before. Smatterings of it have been printed during the week and then presented upon it in his column of last Tuesday. But, so far as I know, the entire thing has never been told. Just a week ago before the curtain was drawn for the performance of "Blackbirds of 1822" in New York, men entered the theatre in a body and settled in the front rows. These men, all white, were members of some southern society in New York, and all of them were fairly well ginned. No sooner did the curtain rise than these "gentlemen" went to work. They applauded in the wrong places and did their host to break the finest colored entertainment ever produced. Then they tried a bit more. One chap rose from his seat unsteadily and waved a $10 bill at the chorus. The crowd was unanimously howled. "This is for the first one that meets me after the show. Don't kill yourselves in the rush. Ha, ha, ha!" The rest of the "gentlemen" laughed long and loud for poo's remarks. The house was packed, and here and there were cries of "Shame—you men should have more sense—shame!" But no one did anything. None came time for Bill Robertson's number. As he stepped upon the stage the "gentlemen" immediately made him their target. Boos and indicate razzberries greeted America's foremost tap dancer. Robinson stepped, to the footlights. "Keep playing, boys," he said softly. The music went on. Bill Robinson danced. Slowly, Tap, Tap, Tap. And as he danced he spoke. "What you men have done tonight," he murmured, "is a disgrace to your race. You down there. You安坐 and I安坐. You tap, Tap, tap, Tap. "If I stepped down the street," he continued, "entered the New Amusement park. I sat before a choir, I'd be mobbed. If I did a thing like that I deserved whatever punishment I received. Tap, Tap, Tap. Years I've been dancing and trying to entertain everyone to the best of my ability. The thing that happened here tonight has never been done before. One one and you—and you—the lowest man I have ever played before. The audience went wild. For five solid minutes they applauded. One one and the audience reached for their hat and disappeared into the night. Good boy, Bill! Alhambra Players at Gibson's Theatre --- Dancer Offers His New Show Dancer Offers His New Show "Deep Harlem" Coming to the Lafayette Next Announcement is made by Earl Dancer, who is best known to the theatre-goers as the manager of "Atrium" Water, at the production of his newest show, *Deep Harlem*. It will have its premiere presentation on the first week beginning January, October 1, and is scheduled for appearance in a Broadway theatre in the very near future. It will be very different, it is said, will be very different, it is said, from anything seen on Broadway. It will make its appeal not semi-draped textures, but the sensuous, by massive acones, beautiful singing, gorgeous settings, and with a wealth of path interiors, has ever been staged by comedians of color, we are told. An idea of the immensity of Earl Dancer can be gathered from the fact that he has at least ten massive scenes, including a desert encampment, a slave convict farm and Harriah Smith. Rehearsals on "Deep Harlem" have been going on for the last six weeks under the direction of Earl Dance. Joe Jordan, Silem Tutt and Razaz Hajaf, C. Johnson and Doe Doe Green—each one of these celebrities specializing in one part of the work. There will be a cast of seventy-five of the best known comedians several of the best known comedians in Harlem as well as a group of dramatic artists and twenty of the best male singers in the East. "Deep Harlem" will be presented in the Latoyette for one week only in an effort to establish the established policy of the popular Seventh avenue theatre. Ethel Waters of "Africana" Files Petition in Bankruptcy Ethel Waters, late star of "Ardent," the ill fated revue which closed several months ago, filed a century petition in bankruptcy, littered with letters, largely inducted through the protection of "Ardent," and only $40 each in assets. According to the petition, Miss Elizabeth K. Bancroft to her husband, Earl Bancroft, who is a national producer of "Ardent," also assumes responsibility for any liabilities arising out of the actions or conduct of her husband and Maurice Dancer. Among the other liabilities listed are a calm of $10,000 of Daly's theatre, $15,000 of the Brooks Cosmetics Theatre, $15,000 of the Shubert Theatre Corporation and $15,000 of the Davidson Theatre.

EARL DANCER IN NEW VENTURE NEXT WEEK 'Farina' at Amsterdam News Office Saturday He's Smiling Just the Same THE BEST MAN IN THE WORLD Although the Manager of the Lafayette Theatre Decided That Only Organizations and Destitute Performers Would Be Extended the Courtesy of the Use of the Lafayette Theatre for Midnight Benefits, Sam Craig, Stage Manager at the Same House for the Past Fifteen Years, Simply Smiled When He Learned That His Friends Would Not Be Able to Stage the Big Testimonial for Him at the Scene of His Labors. The Case of Earl Dancer And the Lafayette The coming of Earl Dancer to the Lafayette Theatre with a new production should at least arrest the attention not only of performers, but of the public generally. The question of the closing of "African" at the Lafayette, Mr. Frank Schiffman, manager of the house, had some difficulty in deciding which he said to Dancer before the company. Then came the heated arguments in reference to non-payment of many of the people. Note how when Dancer has produced a new show how readily she is willing to take our lessons from the white man in those things that mean progress, here's a lesson to the white man a lesson to the albeit indirectly. The immediate past is laid aside if not forgotten. Anger has been replaced by body judgment. Fear has been replaced by Dancer something worth while, Schiffman is the first to take advantage of the opportunity, refusing to allow his personal feelings to him, preventing him from "carrying on" despite the fact that he test had just cause for his grievances in the past. Many people women rush into print with denunciations of the dramatic editor of The Amsterdam News because of the stand the editor takes in refuting certain occasions. IT IS BECAUSE MR. SCHIFMAN FULLY RECOGNIZES THE FACT IN THE ORAMATIC EDITOR OF CERTAIN RYING ON WITH A GREAT DESIRE TO SEE NEGROES EMULATING THE EXAMPLE SET BY WHITE MEN IN THOSE WHICH MEAN REAL PROGRESS The dramatic editor has differed in opinion at times with Mr. Schiffman in the past and will differ with Mr. Schiffman in the future, but he is also fully conversant with the fact that the dramatic editor recognizes his business, which he has always had the applause of the dramatic editor. As a Negro writing on a Negro paper in behalf of Negroes, the editor finds it a physical impossibility not to "declare" in his view how consider the interest of Negroes.

Others have tried midnight the Negro song and dance foli de rois seems to capture the fancy of Gay White Way playgoers to make the event a financial boon. "Plantation Revue," said Lew Leslie, "was the first to be seen on Broadway in a midnight performance. I started the bad because I tugged there were any number of Broadway shows, not see my show at regular performance, working themselves, and who would be more than happy to patronize the revue after regular theatre hours. The first such a huge success that I continued through the run. I did the same with "French," Broadway and naturally introduced midnight shows every Thursday in "Blackbirds." "But of even greater interest is the fact that my midnight shows are no longer generally attended by professionals. Society and regular Broadway shows are no longer required to attend the midnight show. The result is capacity audiences at a time when the average New Yorker is fine sleep. Another startling deduction about midnight shows is that they attend the same performances. I know any number of people who would rather miss a meal or a day on the links rather than miss the midnight show of *Blackbirds*. Just why this should be is hard to fathom, but the one place to go instead of home, the popularity of midnight shows," continued Lew Leslie, "due to the extraordinary pap of the Negro entertainer in the early morning hours. Negroes never seem to be interested in professional and what they call swanky audiences. Midnight playgoers, too, seem to appreciate to a fuller extent the artistry of the entertainers and the audience, and thus appease as to make them extend their time to the limit in an effort to please." Of course the midnight show in Harlem is a monstrosity, as it was born with only one desire, and that desire was to get all the money while the getting is good and cater to the ever side of a people that can ill afford it. Alhambra Entertainers Left For Philadelphia on Monday In the early morning of Monday a great automobile parlor car drew away from the Alhambra stage entrance with the entire cast of favorites bound for Gibson's Theatre in Philadelphia. An enormous motor van carried the scenery and stage properties. Thus the tour was rendered free from all the discomforts of railroad travel. At the end of the week the merry troupe will return in the same manner, with the rehearsers rousing new drama and revue. "Blackmail" is the rather startling title of the drama, dealing with attempted extortion foiled by a vigorous young man. "Meet the Gang" is the appropriate name of the revenge—and its safe to state—of the man who, by the act of the friends they've made during the several past months at the Alhambra. The picture stars Monday will be held at Custom Glass in "Exclusive Rights." "Parina" Will Greet Harlem Kiddies Saturday Morning In keeping with the policy which has made "Farina", popular motion picture star, an attraction here, has resisted, she will come to Harlem the coming Saturday morning at 10 o'clock to greet the kiddies of this section at the office of the museum, before the whites publications have monopolized the time of "Farina", but the position which The Amsterdam News occupies is not interested in the welfare of the diminutive star to select the offices of this paper, knowing full well that that the announcement with the youngsters without delay. So let the youngsters come and see in person their little idol singing. Be sure to see that they get to this office no later than 10 o'clock, as the demand for the institute nature, as she must appear at a Brooklyn theatre no later than 12 o'clock, as she must appear at a Brooklyn theatre no later than 12 o'clock, and form in line when you arrive, so as to make certain that each and every one of you will "close up" of one of the most talked-of character of the movies. Whose Fault? A number of people interested in what the colored performers are doing at the downtown theatres recently voiced their regrets that another colored man was not placed in the part carried by Tom Mosley In "Coln Home" up to the time Mosley left to join "In Abraham's Bosom." It would seem that the purpose of the white man the chance to block up in the face of the many colored actors who could, naturally, take the part without forcing the audience to stretch their imagination too far. It is being claimed that Mosley could have made a gesture which would have helped the performer in bringing an actor to the show. It is followed some one in the show to read over the part and perhaps study it while he was planning it, which he eventually did make in going with the other show. The Negro actor must always remember that he does not enjoy the open seams to Broadway and the other theaters. He must be turned to, and a brother actor should do everything in his power when the opportunity presents itself to help a brother, for one and one for all. He should be the most among the brethren of the stage. Schiffman to Answer Schuyler Charges The First Colored Theatre in Harlem LINCOLN 58 WEST 135th STREET.

Roosevelt Theatre The Haitian's Victory PARIS, France—It seems little doubt that the broad jump crown belongs to the Negro group. No sooner had Hamm, a young white Georgian, beaten Dr. Hart Hubbard with his then-innovation, than the Olympic meet then comes another Negro to beat the champion with a leap of 26 feet 1½ inches, or 25 inches better. The event occurred in Paris, where the French Stadium. The new broad jump champion is Sylvester Cator, a young Haitian, domiciled in Paris. Great cheers greeted Cator's victory. The white Frenchman saw in it the first time he had ever competed, the first time in long years that the title has left America. The Negress in the audience also saw in it a victory and a triumph for their own race. Cator took second place in the Olympic meet. Catora's victory was described by a writer in the Intramigrant as follows: "carefully, with the motion that that, with the kindness that pat, Cator inspected the path, Reflection, calculation, evaluation, with that poutful stride, did the token he had in his hand take the token. They are large white hankerchiefs which seem lost in the grass. In reality during very many days that he has been there, it is likely there, and not a centimeter further." SEVEN "When all is arranged he makes a tour of reconnaissance. He seems fully fit. Then, and only then, does his muscles enter into play. Cator unimembers them progressively. The sun, bright with orange, burns his dark skin. He is warm between the shoulders and it seems to him that his loins are lighter. "What does it matter to him now? Certainly his all science, so slowly, so painfully acquired, will aid him to be more cautious, but Cator seems certain. Celtitude is indeterminate, but it is adding continuities to one spring. "Then Cator jumps. He bounds into space and seems but a dead weight projected by some mysterious object, bent up, unbended, and there is a fall in the sand, beautiful with suppliness and grace, a stirring finish of a flight through the air which finishes with bent legs. He enters the soft earth and upon the left always the body pivoted. With the slow motion camera the landing of Cator cought to give the impression of the endless white of the man whose muscles are so much in the vaudeville. "Cater arises. A rapid glance at the indicator. He has beaten the record. Then unconsciously he dances and rubs his teeth. He is not alone. Only a fictive minute, however, for he is himself again. He touches earth again, this time mentally, and since dances right, he rightly photographs with all the brilliance of his white teeth."

Dear Sir: ‘After reading the article in the fsaue of your paper of September 19 contributed by Mr. William Pickens relative to co-operation of tho West Indian and Ameri can Negroes, one cannot fail to see tho soundness and logic of his statemonts, especially as they apply to the reason for clannish- ness ip all racial groups. Being an old South Carolintan myself, I naturally would feel proud of Mr. Pickens or apy other Individual or group who achieved any honor or distinction. 1 be- Heve It 1s a matter of history that defore slavery was abolished in the West Indies a good many new nattves of the Islands were for- tunata enough to make thelr es- cape therefroin and settle on the coast of the Carolinas, thereby laying the foundation of familtes that are now known as American Negroes. From close observation one can see in features and cer- tain habits similarities showing that the West Indian and the ‘American Negroes of our group have a fueling akin to each other. ‘Therefore, our interest should serve one common cause and that 4s one for all and all for one, and by so doing we may be able to ac- complish something.

Dear Sir: I.see {a your inst {ssue that Dr. Pickens 1s advocating co-opera- tion between the West Indian and the American Negroes. But no man is more recponstblo for tho rift between the two groups than Dr. Pickens. His attacks on the British West Indians during the Brent antl-West Indian campaign of 1922 caused an Amer:can Negro ot prominence to remark that the “learned doctor” should have heen “president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Pigs.” ; Dr. Pickens 1s learfing that West Indians have been saying this for years. Notwithstanding the ‘doctor's tirade against the West Indians and bis wish that they were all deported, he has come to himself again to kuow the full meaning of co-operation. Let some of tho N. A.A.

S, Negroes” in this week's irsue ot The Amsterdam Nows. Mr. Pickens’ conelustons exactly colu- cide with mine, but he expresses | thet much better than I could. | We've been told that the end of | education 4s to learn how to think, but it {s regrettable that many Ne- goes who havo had the benefits of a higher formal education continue to harbor and foster such preju- dices and petty antagoutsms as Mr. Pigxens so franidly recounts—pre} vdlees and antagonisms which ‘would be rather absurd but for the adverse effect they bave on thet feeble infant, race unity. As a West Ibdien, but primartly as a Negro, I believe that such die- cussions would do much to lessen friction between the two groups and Mr. Pickens s to be congratu- lated for his insight and sincerity, but particularly should he be com- mended for bis courage in tackling tls salfent one of the race's many problems here In the United States.

Succeeding Colonel Hayward as federal attorney for the Southern District of New York, he has conducted his office with ability and energy. Negro voters appreciate his appointment of two Negro assistant in his office, Attorneys Delaney and Baltimore. Stop Talking Like Children THIS CALL MIGN, on the Democratic side, has degenerated into little more than a crudish personal squabble. The Democratic spies, as if conscious of their deficiencies regarding the minor issues, have spent their time nagging at the Republican party and its leader, degrading the campaign into the very thing they said they wished to avoid. AFTER ALL THE TALK of whispering and unfair tactics, Mayor Walker went over to Newark last Thursday and made a grossly dishonest attack on Herbert Hoover. He said that Hoover cast his first American vote in 1918, the year that Smith was elected Governor; he tried to give the impression that Hoover preferred other countries to the United States. He said that while Hoover was abroad working for other countries Smith was at home working for Americans. What could be more unfair than this? Before the war Hoover was abroad working at his profession, and during the war, at the behest of the Democratic President Wilken, he was busy saving millions of women and children from starvation. While Chairman Raskob is calling on Mr. Hoover to stop unfair attacks on Smith, why does he not put his foot down on people like Mayor Walker? PRETENDING that they want the religious issue kept out of the campaign, the Democrats are doing all they can to keep it to the front. They are trying to make political capital by presenting themselves as the victims of bigotry. Governor Smith, in his speech in Oklahoma, said that the people who say they are opposed to him because of his Tammany Hall connections are really opposed to him because of his religion. That statement was unworthy of a Presidential candidate, and it shows how far the Democrats will go to put a false issue before the country. They wish to make it appear that everybody who votes against Smith is doing so on religious grounds and is therefore a bigot. THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE to get away with such filmsy arguments. Millions of people would vote against Governor Smith even if he were a Protestant. As for bigotry, just as many bigots will vote for Smith because he is a Catholic as will vote against him for that reason. To read the Democratic papers you would think that all the bigots were Protestants, and that anybody who votes against Smith for any reason whatever is a bigot. It is high time the Democrats stemmed talking like children. Peige's Showing Peige's Showing THERE IS NO MATH agement in the defeat of Republican nomination for district.

A PARTY HISTORIAN, looking over the records of the political campaigns of past generations, has concluded that politics has been growing cleaner and better. He says that political candidates used to assail each other with all the hard names they could think of. It was nothing for a candidate to call his opponent a scoundrel, a thief, a loose-liver, a liar, a drunkard and a wife-heater.

IT IS TRUE enough that politics is cleaner in that re- --- --- EDITORIAL PAGE Hoover and Smith on Prohibition Sex: As Europe Accepts It spect, but in other respects it still needs a lot of washing. A man's opponents generally confine themselves to his public record, but they are none too clean about it. They still resort to every trick to misrepresent a man's acts and motives and to confuse the mind of the public. EIGHT YEARS AGO, for instance, Herbert Hoover's name came up for possible nomination for the Presidential candidacy. His chances were killed by political enemies, who convinced the public that since he had spent most of his life abroad he evidently preferred other countries to the United States. The simple truth was that Mr. Hoover's work as a mining engineer forced him to live in foreign countries for years at a time. But that truth was soft-pedaled, and the public did not have sense enough to realize it. Such tricks are not so noisy as the tirades of the old-timers, but they are every bit as dirty and they are being used as much as ever. IF HOOVER is elected, he cannot enforce the Volstol Act; if Smith is elected, he cannot repeal it. In any event the nation is at a moral standstill. Painful experience proves that no law can be enforced unless the vast majority of the people want it enforced. The choosing of the President by the electoral college did not square with the judgment of the average voter, and forthwith this provision of the Constitution became practically nullified. Let us suppose what now seems probable, that Mr. Hoover will succeed in the present campaign. It will be impossible for him to enforce the prohibition amendment, with two-thirds of the Democrats and half of the Republicans opposed to it. The vast majority of the Northern Republicans are supporting Mr. Hoover, not because he is dry, but in spite of that fact. They neither desire nor expect the law to be enforced. He succeeds in that, but he does not, so we suppose that Mr. Hoover will be more successful in this regard than Mr. Harding and Mr. Coolidge have been? He would probably be less successful because there will have developed a greater and more influential body or hostility. No law can be enforced merely because the President has the good intention so to do. We must suppose that all of the Presidents under whose administrations the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments have fallen into silent neglect have desired to live up to the obligations of their oaths to protect and defend the Constitution. Any other conclusion would be reflective upon their integrity. PARIS. SOME months past I began what was intended to be a series of articles on some of the fundamental points of difference between Europe and the United States. Of this I wrote but a single article on nationality, in which I endeavored to show that nationality in Europe means something very much different from what it does in America; that in the United States racialism really takes precedence over nationalism, and that in America the foreigner enjoys more freedom than in Europe. The second article I had intended to be on what I will jump under the general name of the Sex Problem. I did nothing toward preparing this, however, it might have gone no further, but for the fact that I recently took a second and more intimate trip over seven European countries. What I saw, especially as regards the status of the European woman in comparison with the American one, has decided my writing some more. I phaps in nothing is the difference between the two civilizations more strongly marked than in the attitude towards sex. The causes go deep and are manifold. Among the principal ones are the following: Europe's is the older civilization and because of its more congested nature there has been less opportunity for change for newer developments. The earliest Europeans, like the rest of humanity, were phallic worshipers; to them were natural gifts, were as natural and accountable as the hand or the head, and in a land where customs change very, very slowly this view, somewhat attenuated, it is true, has been passed on to the present generation. I have seen public fountains, designs in cathedrals and old castles and elsewhere, postcards of carving around the doe of carrying around in the United States lest I be arrested for having obscene pictures. As to what phallic worship is, I should like to say for the benefit of those readers who do not know, but I do not wish to make Americans blush, so those who are curious to know had better go to the museum to see the mote word and perhaps one may use it without scandalizing our trousered old maids. A study of African art reveals the same frankness in dealing By KELLY MILLER All of our Presidents, from Harrison to Coolidge, must have had the same attitude towards the Civil War amendments as towards other parts of the Constitution, but they felt impotent in the obvious ab- A. E. -Kelly Miller- sence of a supporting public sentiment. Why then advocate Hoover rather than Smith on the liquor issue, knowing beforehand that the Eighteenth Amendment cannot be enforced in face of existing public feeling? The answer to this query is the kernel of the phase of the liquor question. Governor Smith, if he becomes President, will no doubt have the same desire and good intention to Bu J. A. ROGERS with sex. In the allegory of Adam and Eve, the two went around as unconscious as children or primitive tropical men and women of the fact that they were nude until their "eyes were opened." In Russia today men and women bathe together in public streams, just as in Africa. In Norway the man who would take a bath insure the locking of the bathroom door or the maid will come in to scrub him. Throughout — J. A. Rogera — Latin Europe, especially, numerous statues show that men are men and women are women. Once in the city of Florence a photographer who lurks in the neighborhood of the Uffizi Palace wanted to snap me before the statue of Hercules, as he was doing, and send it done and sending it to the papers, but on a second look at the statue I decided that it would never do for American consumption. The same holds true with regard to another well-known fountain in Brussels. Of course, it will be understood that I have been using only the milder examples to illustrate my point and am keeping myself from "cutting loose" and giving some vivid examples. Sexual intercourse in every European country in which I have been, among the unmarried and the married, seems to be regarded as something thing. Indeed, it seems to be regarded as a necessity, particularly in Germany and Latin Europe. At least ample provisional enforce the law as Secretary Hoover, in a like contingency. But the Governor's campaign declarations tie his hands; his declared disagreement with the competency of the law to accomplish the desired end and his avowed intention to advocate its immediate modification or abolishment, and the unfriendly sentiment which his pronouncements engender, make it impossible for him to fulfill his promise. Every time he makes a single convert to his position he puts a new stumbling block in his own path. He cannot enforce a law which his public advocacy holds up to public ridicule and scorn, with the frame of agitation precedent to modifying the law, enables the chance of enforcement. It is not only unlikely that Governor Smith would be able to modify the law, but it is practically impossible for him, with his unfriendly avowal, to enforce it. Let us look for a bit back of the amendment and the Volatile Act, to the purpose back of them, and consider the attitudes of the contending candidates on the fundamental question of prohibition. While Mr. Hoover has not as yet endorsed prohibition as a moral principle, he has not declared against it, as Mr. Smith has done. Mr. Hoover regards the Eighteenth Amendment as a noble experiment to be dealt with constructively; he regards it as a vicious experiment to be dealt with destructively. Mr. Hoover says: "I will fulfill the law"; Mr. Smith, "I will destroy it." "A dry" is one who believes in prohibition on moral ground; "wet" one who does not. These two conflicting schools of view are not distributed between the two parties in anything like equal numbers. "The dry" want, the are made for its indulgence in these regions. Exception must be made in the case of England. The attitude of the English resembles that of the American, though it does not go to the same extremes. Saturday evening seems to be the time when the working people in Europe and America worship at the shrine of Venus. In Continental Europe they go to one of the numerous hotels—Saturday night is always a bad night to look for a room on the Continent; in England they, like Moses, go to the bushes, Hampstead Hearn or some other place; and in America they go to prison. In North Carolina, for instance, I am the officer of the officers of the law to descend the couples and hall them to court, where they are fined Monday mornings, or made to work it out on the roads. I have listened to dozens of these cases, and in every instance the defendants were of the poorer working type. In not a single instance have I ever seen a white person or a higher class Negro before the court, though there is ample proof that the sex morals of both these groups are no better. The latter is however, less financially able to hide himself. This, by the way, struck me as being about as neat an example of injustice as I have ever seen. Still, North Carolina needs good roads. I said that I was refraining from giving some of the more vivid examples of the comparative lack of prudishness among Continental Europeans as compared with Americans, and I might add English people, too. Still, I might give one or two lesser instances. In Latin America the urinariora for men are on the streets where passably may see the men within, while in Italy there is no pretence of even a little cover, as in France. In many of the beacons cafes of the city, the indian is through the men's urinari, and reared in an Anglo-Saxon country, with its signs warning me to arrange my clothing carefully before stepping out of the door. I'll never forget my surprise when I first saw a toilet of the kind just mentioned. Still, the Latin peoples for generations and generations have been seeing this sort of thing, with the result that it is as commonplace and natural to them as it would be striking and indecent to the Anglo-Saxon, as indecent as eating a cow would be to an orthodox Hindu or kissed by a Muslim for an prudishness, like color prejudice, if not inherent in nature. It must be taught, but in time any custom can become so strong that it may readily be mistaken for an inherent natural quality. In Latin and Germanic countries photographs of the nude human body may be bought either in card form or in magazines. Since the American invasion, the French are getting a little more prudish and are putting certain restrictions on the vendors of these cards, but in Germany and Austria there seems to be none. Before the American invasion, actors used to appear quite nude on the streets in Paris, as they now do in Germany. In Berlin I have seen prostitutes in windows exhibiting themselves in the streets to likely clients on the streets. In short, after omitting the prudus, which are to be found among all peoples, even among the French, one may safety say that sex and LETTERS Eighteenth Amendment enforced in its unmodified integrity; "the wets" do not. In the present tangle and cross-cleavage of party issues the question cannot be settled by this election. It will project itself throughout the incoming administration, into the next, and possibly into the third or fourth succeeding administrations. There must be a clear majority of the American electorate which expressly declares for prohibition, disentangled from other issues. This was the case with African slavery. There was but one essential plank in the platform upon which Abraham Lincoln stood. The present campaign is but a preparatory step, but this step should point in the positive and not the negative direction. It is unfortunate that this moral agitation did not precede the enactment to the Constitution. It grew out of the expedition of the war, which must now be underpinned by the moral determination of the people. The genuine "drys" should note the delights of the two candidates, and for Senators and Congressmen who are absolutely "dry." After all, the issue must be determined in Congress, and not in the White House. The people are the masters of Congress. Hoover, and Smith, Smith and Hoover—two high-minded, upright, conscientious, patriotic American citizens. Welch them, balance them; analyze and compare them; choice is difficult. On farm relief, flood control, internal waterways, honesty and efficiency of administration, and even on the race problem, one might as well shut his eyes and take his choice. On the issue of prohibition and its moral meaning they are as far apart as the poles. The genuine drys have no choice—Hoover goes up; Smith goes down. sex expression seem to be regarded as natural among the Continental states, is regarded vile and improper among the English and Americans. I have long tried to discover the reason for the wide difference between the attitudes of the two civilizations, and have finally traced it to an economic source. The Anglo-Saxon is the leading producer of clothing. In proportion as humanity covers up its body the better thrives business for the Anglo-Saxon. The less it engages the more the effect on business and it all were suddenly to develop the lack of sex consciousness that is found among primitive Africans and children there would be a great slump in the cotton and woolen business, at least in the summer months. One fact is certain, clothing, was certainly intended as a protection for the body, and not the hider of nudity it is today. Nature sends us into the world without clothing, and to cleanse thorny skin from our clothes. When the Anglo-Saxon insists that the body and all its parts must be hidden, he is; therefore, only trying to boom business. And be it noted here that I am neither commending the European nor finding fault with the Anglo-Saxon. To me, a would-be philologist, I would have of both on the matter of sex at all. I haven't the slightest desire to change either, if I could. I know, as Victor Hugo so ably pointed out in his "Tollers of the Deep," that man is man all over the world, always from necessity, or rather that necessity goes him along. And this brings me to the second reason for what I said marked the greatest differences between the European and the American as regards sex, and also the cause why prostitution is rife in almost every country in Europe. This is because of the far greater percentage of women in Europe than in America. The U. S. census of 1920, as far as I can quote from memory, gives something like 97 women for every 100 men, the Negro population showing a very slight number of women over 60, while the war every European country showed an excess of women over men. In England at present there is an excess of some three million women, while I think the last census of Paris showed three women for every two men. AFRICA ORIGINAL HOME OF MANKIND LONDON, Sept. 22—Members of the American Cameron-Cable Expedition to South Africa are convinced that man originated in Africa, not Asia, a dispatch from Johannesburg to the London Morning Post said today. "The birthplace of man is believed to have been the Kalahari Plateau of Africa, the dispatch said. The expedition now is searching in the center of the desert region for a bushman type, considered to be the lowest type of humanity on earth. —United Press. Inadequate Educational Facilities Showil For Negro in Education Bureau Report While University and College Enrollment Has Increased Sixfold There Are Only 48,000 Teachers for 5,000,000 Students WASHINGTON, Sept. 24. — Whatever may be the state of general prosperity and welfare in the United States, inadequate educational, health and economic opportunities for one-tenth of the population is creating a serious situation. This is the conclusion drawn from an official survey of Negro educational institutions by the Bureau of Education, Department of the Interior. In stating that "the lack of teachers is serious" the study reveals that there are only 48,000 Negro teachers in the whole city type. Upon this small number rests the impossible task of instructing 5,000,000 Negro children. The economic salvation of the Negro is dependent on a great degree upon his training in the fields of agriculture, mechanical arts and crafts; the summary points out that 900,000 Negro teachers and operate farms, there are 1,178,000 of the race engaged in ordinary farm labor. revealed. There are in the United States only 50 Negro architects, 15 engineers, 145 designers, draftsmans and inventors, and 207 chemists. Pro fessional and technical education can be obtained in institutions of higher learning only. "Although the number of Negro clergymen serving as pastors of churches or preachers of the gospel is approximately 19,600, the training of a large number is extremely limited. Many have not had the benefit of a secondary education and This disparity of trained race leaders is, of course, more marked in the professions. For instance, there are only 3,500 Negro physicians and surgeons in the United States, or approximately one medical man to every 3,343 Negroes. Yet public health officials are alarmed because the ratio of white physicians to the white population of the country is only one to 553 persons. The enrollment of Negroes in universities and colleges has increased sixfold and the number of institutions for the higher education of the Negro has more than doubled in the last ten years, according to a report. here are 3,500 Negro physicians and surgeons in the United States, or approximately one medical man to every 3,343 Negroes. The white race has a physician to every 535 persons. A serious lack of Negro dentists prevails. There is only one to every 10,540 Negro inhabitants. In technical lines an even more pronounced shortage of trained men is Political Questions Q.-Where can I get a good popular book on Tammany's history and development? A.-Mr. Franklin's new "Trail of the Tiger" is an account of Tammany in 1928. Democratic leaders are said to have made a determined and partially successful effort to suppress it, but you can probably secure a copy from your newdealer or from the publisher, A. L. Burt of New York. The story has been published in official records and from the press of the times. It should be in the hands of every voter. Q.-Is it true that the Underwood tariff law, which Governor Smith proposes to restore, had any perceptible effect on the payoff of the American workingman? A.—Twice during the time it was in effect the Underwood Tariff Act of 1913 cut the American payroll $100,000,000 a week. One of these occasions was just prior to the war, and the other was just after. The latter was briefly and clearly in a pamphlet which has been published by the Republican National Committee in Washington.

Rare Liberian Potto In Washington Zoo WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—From *Travelling in a special Pullman compartment, one of the queerest animals ever seen in Washington arrived at the Washington Zoo this morning. This was the potto, or slow lemur, of West Africa, which came as a gift from Harvey Firestone Jr. It was captured by one of the employees of the Firestone Company in Liberia and sent immediately to Mr. Firestone at Akron, O., when it was sent to Washington. The potto is about the size of a large squirrel, has enormous, glaring eyes which shine the small searchlights in the courtyard animal. During day it remains rolled in ball.
