AMSTERDAM NEWS AGAIN SCOOPS DAILY-WEEKLY PRESS WITH STORY
REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Complete in Two Sections
REPUBLICANS NAME OTTINGER ON EQUAL OPPORTUNITY RECORD
State Democrats Draft Franklin D. Roosevelt for Governor's Post. Despite Illness of Candidate
SYRACUSE. Oct. 1. Declaring that the Attorney General is the champion of the party that has consistently fought for enancipation from "inequality of opportunity before the law and from the prejudice of race, color and class," U. S. Attorney Charles II. Tuttle nominated Albert Ottinger as Republican candidate for Governor Saturday at the state convention. The motion was seconded amid a wild demonstration. Others named on the ticket were not contested. Placed on the slate with Ottinger were: Alanson B. Houghton, for United States Senator.
States School.
Charles H. Lockwood of Kings, for
Lieutenant-Governor.
Harry B. Crowley of Monroe, for
Lieutenant Colonel.
Crowley of Monroe, for
State controller.
Hamilton Ward of Erie, for Attorneys
living S. Hubbs of Oswego, for Asso-
ciate Judge of the Court of Ap-
Himself a contender for the candidacy only a short time ago, Tuttle took the platform and placed the name of his rival in nomination. In part: "I nominate him for Governor because as Attorney-General he has been more than an Attorney-General; because he has made the State the better for his being in office, and because he has protected and enlarged the welfare and comfort of every home in New York," said Mr. Tuttle. "I nominate him for Governor because, as the nominee, he will be assign that the sacred bond of brotherhood which our American Constitution creates always has had and now has its champion in the Republican party—the party which was born beneath the banner of Lincoln, the Liberator, and which through the years has steadily fought the battle for emancipation from bondage, physical and social." Assistant Secretary Davison, who presided over the Saturday deliberations, was bitter in his denunciation of Tammany Hall, declaring that the people of New York are not going to overlook recent political history in New York City. He charged Governor Smith with attempting to lead voters astray with the prohibition question. The republican nominee is a native of New York City and received his education there. He was elected to the State Senate in 1916 and advocated laws penalizing discrimination against persons because of race, color or creed.
He stood out, also, by introducing the vehicular traffic tunnel bill and aided clarifying the soldiers' honors and compensation. He was elected Attorney-General in November, 1926, the only undefecated Republican on the ticket.
Democrats name Roosevelt
With four prospective names groomed for the top of the slate, the Democrat went into State convention Monday at Rochester. Franklin D. Roosevelt, former Assistant Sec. (Continued on Page 2.)

Allen "Farina" Hoskins, one of the funniest members of Hal Roach's "Our Gang," who appears in Roach's universally famous film comedies, was the guest of The Amsterdam News and about 1,000 or more school children Saturday mroning. Beginning with a gathering of less than 100 at 10 o'clock, the crowd grew swiftly to about 2,000, including adults, by 11 o'clock, when Lieutenant MacMullen of the Sixteenth precinct found it necessary to summon the police reserves.

Tailor Shop Robber
Held for Grand Jury
James Southall, 22, 477 Lenox avenue, said to be the second man arrested for burglarizing the tailor shop of Max Goosey, white, 2285 Seventh avenue, a few doors from The Amsterdam News, was arraigned in Heights Court Friday before Magistrate Stern and held in $3,000 ball for the Grand Jury on a charge of burglary.
Melton Parker, 18, 93 West 134th street, the youth who robbed the store while Southall is said to have acted as a lookout, is serving an indefinite term in the penitentiary for his crime. Some of the goods were found in Parker home. Parker informed on Southall, to be police. The robbery occurred on Sunday May 6, when uncut cloth, several suits and overcoats, valued at about $1,000, were stolen. Parker was arrested the next day. He was tried, convicted and sent to prison. Southall, who also goes under the name of Manville, left the city after the robbery. Upon his return here last week he was placed under arrest by Detective Christiano of the West 135th street station. Two other men are still being sought in connection with the robbery.

Prior to Kidnapping of Casper Holstein Freed Man Admits He Had Partnership in "Numbers Banking" With Bernstein-- Explains Phone Message Which Trapped Him
After skyrocketing to a place of national interest and stealing the front page of the metropolitan dailies, the case of the kidnapping of Casper Holstein, reputed wealthy clubman, 108 West 144th street, fizzled out completely and became one grand flop Monday when charges of kidnapping against Rudolph Brown, 32, 211 West 149th street, the alleged tipster, and Moe Monty Schubert, 30, white, 110 Whitlock avenue, were dismissed in Heights Court by Magistrate McQuade.
All five of the men arrested in the case are now free of charges except Michael Bernstein, 32, white, 1182 Lebanon street, who, according to the story told to the police by his wife, was kidnapped when he was on his way to Heights Court last Wednesday morning. Bail of $10,000 for Bernstein has been forfeited.
On the day that he disappeared Anthony D'Agostino, 28, 1106 Harding Park, and Peter Donohue, 27, 1207 Harding Park, both white, were dismissed upon the recommendation of Assistant District Attorney James Male, who told the court that the police were satisfied they had nothing to do with the case.
Lyttle Released On $5,000 Bail
Charged With Using Mails in Promotion of a Lottery
George W. Lyttle, 43, 32 West 132d street, said to be Harlem agent for the Albany baseball pool, was released in $5,000 bali Thursday when arraigned before United States Judge T. Blake Kennedy in Federal District Court. He was charged with using the mails in the promotion of a lottery.
"Lyttle was taken into custody in a cigar store at 2250 Seventh avenue, where the officer said he found 25 books of tickets which are used to play the game at $1 per ticket. Lyttle was held in $500 ball for Special Sessions on a charge of violating section 974 of the Penal Law,

The release of all of the men came about through the failure or refusal of Holstein to identify any of his alleged captors who whisked him in an automobile from the hallway of 225 West 146th street, where he had gone to visit Mrs. Gomez Whitfield on Sept. 20, and took him blindfolded to an unknown destination.
He was held, it was reported, for $50,000 ransom, but was released after the police arrested five men. He returned as mysteriously as he disappeared early Monday morning, Sept. 24.
All five of the prisoners were represented by former Judge Leonard Snitkin, who on Monday morning defied the police to present one shred of evidence against any of the men. And although the police insisted that Bernstein himself confessed and implicated Brown in this confession, Assistant District Attorney John R. Hennis told the court that there was no evidence upon which Brown or Schubert could be held.
It is safe to say that had Bernstein been present he too would have been dismantled.
when arranged before Magistrate Dodge in Heights Court, August 2. When United States Attorney Charles Tuttle began an investigation into the conduct of the baseball pool, which is merely a more high-brow form of playing the "numbers." he made the announcement that the pool had been manipulated in such a manner that the chance of an outsider winning a prize had practically been eliminated. In other words, the game was "fixed," he declared.
It is safe to say that had Bernstein been present he too would have been dismissed. The police said that the charge against him stands until he is located and arraigned.
The Amsterdam News learned Monday on what it considered good authority, that Bernstein was not kidnapped and that he is resting from the excitement of it all, somewhere up in the mountains.
Holstein's Tale Believed
Since the release of Holstein, those closest to him who were skeptical of the genuleness of the kidnapping now believe that it was
was on the level. They believe Holstein's story that while he was a captive his adductors burnt his face with matches and struck him three heavy blows on the head to make him confess that Charles King, his right hand man, was in truth employed by him. "You came near getting me killed," Holstein told King afterward, "by telling them that you worked for me. It was with King that Bernstein and Schubert are alleged to have made arrangements for the payment of the ransom. As it was, the kidnappers got at least $25,000 out of Holstein and darred him to need his mouth, it is reported. Behind Holstein's smiling countence there lurks a grim terror his friends say. This is said to account for his remark to the police when the alleged kidnappers were lined before him for identification. "I could (identify them), but I can't," he said.

RUDOLPH BROWN TELLS HIS STORY
Narrates in Detail All He Says He Knew About Kidnapping of Casper Holstein
a police record of nineteen arrests and six convictions, had been tried and found guilty, he would have been sent to jail for life under the Baumes laws.
On Saturday night, Sept. 22, King is said to have displayed that alleged ransom money to a girl friend, consisting of $20,000 in $1,000 bills and $8,000 in $500 bills.
Further credence was given the veracity of the kidnapping by the arrival here of Charles Jackson, brother of Dan Jackson, wealthy undertakers of Chicago. Jackson came here as soon as he learned of the kidnapping, and hired operatives of Val O'Farrell's detective agency to assist in apprehending the kidnappers.
Rudolph Brown's Narrative
In an exclusive interview with a reporter of The Amsterdam News Monday night, Rudolph Brown told the story of his arrest and incarceration for ten days without bail.
The first question the reporter asked him was whether or not he was going to leave New York for Washington, D. C., in company with his brother, Henry A. Brown of Washington. He stated very公差ly that he was not going anywhere, but would remain in Harlem and make a living the same as he has done for the past twenty years.
He made it very clear, after vigorously denying having played any part in the kidnapping, that he does not fear bodily harm from anyone, and that the first man who attacks him will have him to fight.
Brown related that he lost his position as manager of the Alhambra balcony, 126th street and Seventh avenue, was required to give up his residence in the Dubai Garden Apartments, and has suffered a serious injury to his reputation, all as a result of unfavorable publicity.
Had Partnership With Bernstein
Prior to the kidnapping Brown said he was a partner with Bernstein in the business of "numbers" banking. The collections were only about $49 a day, which he said was not enough to cover the bankers when the players "hit the numbers."
Brown said he "went out of business" with Bernstein on Saturday, Sept. 15, but turned his collections over to Bernstein under the agreement that he was to receive a 50 per cent profit on the proceeds from it.
"In order to make the business pay the collections should be not less than $800 a day," Brown said. "I told Bernstein that I would let him know the next week whether or not I could raise it to $800 a day. I succeeded in getting the additional $100 a day from just two men (collectors)."
Brown explained that although the partnership was dissolved between himself and Bernstein as bankers, he arranged with Bernstein to keep up

the collections, turn them over to him and receive his profit of 20 per cent. This is how the "misunderstanding" came about concerning the police report that he, an alleged tipster, was to receive 20 per cent of the ransom money.
At the time he dropped his "banking" partnership with Bernstein, the latter asked him if he knew of another banker who would go in with him.
"I suggested the name of..... about the biggest banker in Harlem," Brown said.
While bringing up his "collections" to $300 a day, Brown said he tried almost every day during the week of Sept. 17 to get in touch with Bernstein in order to turn the money over to him. Finally, he got in touch with him on Saturday, Sept. 27. He had heard the day before that Holstein was missing, Brown said.
"When I got Bernstein on the phone," Brown related, "I told him that I had tried several times to get in touch with him by phone at his office.
"He said to me, 'by the way, there is a man here by the name of Charles King. What do you know about him? He is here in the interest of Holstein."
"King is okay," I told him, "Positively okay, he's alright," I said. At the time I didn't know that the wires were tapped by the police. I had nothing to hide anyway because I was innocent. All the time I went about my business as usual.
"I didn't even know that they had me implicated at all until Detective Webber arrested me Sunday (Sept. 25), about noon in front of Johnny Jackson's restaurant at 2255 Seventh avenue. I had the Sunday paper under my arm and was on my way home for a bit of quiet reading.
"When the police questioned me I told them just what I'm telling you," Brown said to the reporter. "On the day I telephoned Bernstein I was to meet him at the Olympic Club at 8:30 that night, but I missed him because I didn't get there until 9:30. I learned afterward that Bernstein was arrested there that night."
Brown was then questioned regarding Bernstein's statement that he was the tipster. "I won't deny that he accused me to my face," Brown replied, "but it isn't true just the same."
When asked if he heard Bernstein make a confession of the kidnapping Brown said, "Not in my presence, anyway. I never heard any of the men arrested say they were guilty."
Bernstein was the only one of the five prisoners to be released on bail. It is reported that the police "beat the stuffings out of him" and demanded that he go and release Holstein, since they were unable at any time to locate him.
Several machine gun squads under the command of forty police covered the area in which they believed Holstein was confined. They perched on roofs and in windows, their death dealing instruments polished for the signal to blast away.

Harlemites' Clash With Police Takes International Aspect as Mussolini Warns of Rising Menace of Colored Races
Echoes of the near-riot of 3,000 citizens in Harlem the evening of July 22 will be revived here in General Sessions Court when Clarence Donald, 36, 2328 Seventh avenue, faces trial October 23 for felonious assault. The alleged victim of police brutality is charged by Patrolman Charles Kubeil, white, of Traffic C, with kicking him while resisting arrest.
Donald, whose ball was first set at $2,500, and later reduced to $1,000, is also appealing sentence of 10 days, imposed by Magistrate McQuade following the disturbance. A principal in the incident in which hundreds figured, he was charged with choking and beating Mrs. Zerelena Chavis, 559 Lenox avenue, precipitating the citizens' clash with the police. The case was revealed in an international light Thursday as Benito Mussolini, dictator of Italy, cited it in a magazine article contending that colored peoples of the world are rising to menace the whites. He described the affair, which was decidedly much tamer, as being "suppressed after a bloody night between police and solid masses of blacks."
Held following testimony alleging police beat Donald while he was on the ground is St. William Grant, 28, 130 West 139th street. Herman Fills, white taxi driver, 218 West 122d street, witness for Patrolman Kubell, caused Grant's arrest on charges of robbing him. The case is still pending and he is under $5,000 ball.
He charges a frameup because of his testimony in Donald's behalf, and declared in an interview with The Amsterdam News that he was maltreated. He was also promised dismissal on the robbery charge, the accused man asserted, if he would testify against Donald.
Donald is being defended by John William Smith, attorney of 26 Cortland street, who regards the case as a test of police misrule.
ARMORED CAR USED
IN CHASING SUSPECT
The alleged theft of a suit of clothes valued at $60 by William Waltino. 5 West 136th street, from the tailor shop of Adolph Miller, white, 1155 Clay avenue, threw the neighborhood into a high state of excitement last Wednesday when Detectives Dagg and Ball of the Simpson street station and employees of a Cross Armored Truck drove Waltino to surrender after a thrilling chase in which guns barked freely.
When arraigned before Magistrate Dodge in Morrissia Court, Waltino was held in $500 ball for Special Sessions on a charge of larceny.
Unable to Pay Fine
Gregory Booker, 101 West 143d street, was fined $5 or five days on a charge of disorderly conduct on complaint of one Leroy Wilson and Patrolman Eagar of the West 136th street station. Booker was unable to pay the fine when arraigned Monday morning before Magistrate McQuade in Heights Court.

- Floyd J. Calvin Jr. -
Less than a week after his third birthday anniversary, little Floyd J. Calvin Jr., only son of Mr. and Mrs. Calvin, 2816 Eighth avenue, died of convulsions on last Wednesday at 2 o'clock. He was attended by Dr. Alonzo de G.

To Discuss Health Menace at Meeting
To Discuss Health Menace at Meeting
Dr. Charles A. Butler, Council Head, Checks Sewage
"Harlem and Its Health Menace" will be the topic of discussion at a mass meeting Sunday afternoon under the auspices of the Citizens' Welfare Council of Harlem at St. James' Presbyterian Church, 141st street and St. Nicholas avenue, at which Nosh D. Thompson, business manager of Opportunity Magazine, will preside.
Among those to appear on the speakers' program will be Dr. Charles A. Butter, president of the council; Mabel Doley Keaton, head of the Harlem Tuberculosis Association; Dr. Lucien M. Brown and the Rev. William Lloyd Imes, pastor of St. James'.
Through the instrumentality of Dr. Butler, who complained to Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wynne concerning the offensive odors from Harlem River, an inspector was sent to investigate the condition and reported that the waters of the river are polluted from sewage discharged therein from a large area in Manhattan and from the west side of the Bronx.
He was instrumental in having Harlem River dredged deeper than it was originally planned, in order to insure the complete removal of slime and filth at two river's bottom which has been a menace to the health of Harlem. An expenditure
of an additional $2,000,000 will be necessary for this work, it is said. The dredging is now under way. A trunk line for sewage disposal will be constructed about 15 feet wide along the Harlem River and run to Ward's island, where a subterranean plant will perform the work of sewage disposal in a sanitary manner with chemicals and without odor. The ground over the plant will be laid out like a park, it is reported. Dr. Butler stated yesterday that perhaps 2,000 Negro workers will be employed in the construction of the trunk line.
Subway Agent Fined For Spitting on Woman
John J. Ridge, 24, white, 461 Willis avenue, a station agent in the L. R. T. subway at Lenox avenue and 135th street; was arraigned in Heights Court Thursday on a charge of disorderly conduct on complaint of Mary Pascal, 24 West 140th street, who said Ridge spit in her face.
Ridge admitted the dirty act and was found guilty and fined $15, which he paid.
Mrs. Pascal told the court that Ridge became abusive when she asked for the change of a dollar and told him to hurry. He called her vile names and then spit in her face and threatened to strike her with an iron bar, she said.
Two witnesses corroborated Mrs. Pascal's testimony.

Addresses Feature Who's Who in Colored America Hour Over Station WABC — Artist Rebukes
John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A. M. E. Church, president of the Prudential Bank of Washington, D.C., and chairman of the Colored Voters' Division of the Hoover-Curtis campaign, together with O. Richard Reid, portrait painter, appeared on the radio program of the Negro Achievement Hour at Station WABC Friday evening. Weekly programs of this special hour are given under the auspices of Who's Who in Colored America.
His Group
"The addresses of Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Reid were the principal features of the program.
Mr. Hawkins stated that the Negro should subscribe to the election of presidential candidate Herbert C. Hoover, who "believes in giving every man a square deal and equal opportunity, regardless of color or creed."
What the Negro has enjoyed under the regime of the Republican party certainly outweighs that which has come to him under the Democratic party, Mr. Hawkins said. "No one will deny that in national affairs the Negro is the most important of the Democrats of the South," "who have "always been against the best interests of the Negro. Every law of discrimination, Jim-Crowism and segregation with reference to the community life among Negroes in the South, is fostered by the Democratic party." Mr. Reid said in part: "I don't want to feel the sting of perception quite so keenly as a Negro portrait painter, because of direct contact . . . with his sitters or patrons, being in the majority of close white persons." Mr. Reid visited a scathing rebuke upon the Negro as a race, in throwing the duty involving patronage in the arts upon the shoulders of the white man, the artist, the first put into the hands of approval upon the Negro's achievements before the Negro himself will recognize the merits of his own talents.
While admitting that the Negro possesses an originality in art fundamental to his own group, Mr. Reid decreed any effort to confine the creative talents of his race to subordinates. The Negro has been permitted to swim around in this great pond of life, picking his subjects here and there, he will never produce anything worthy of his efforts."
L' Platform Fight Has Fatal Result
Man Fell or Was Thrown to Death Under Wheels of
Train
Hilton Brown, 49, 1002 Brook avenue, was locked up in the East 104th street station early Sunday morning charged with causing the death of Patrick Carney, white, 27, a pipe-fitter, employed by the Interborough, living at 1573 Madison avenue and the University of North Carolina's train at the Ninety-ninth street elevation line.

- Albert A. Smith -
Carved His Initials On Lying Lover
Tribe
Chief Hawks, who says he is a Seneca Indian, and is also known in Marcellus as Marcellus Hawkins, carved his intials with a can opener upon the chest of his sweetheart, Margaret Ricl, 32, white, a sculptress, of the Y. W. C. A. Studio Club, 210 East seventy-seventh street, when he caught her in a lie.
Chief Hawks, when arranged in West Side Court before Magistrate McAndrews, explained that his act was a quaint Indian custom in which the offending female can only stone for by permitting her lover to brand her with his knife, also laceration with a knife or a wide blade with a razor usually suffices for the average cutting male of Harlem.
Although Edward V. Broderick, Chief Hawk's attorney, told the court that Miss Ricol would not prosecute, the Indian was held in $20,000 bail for the Grand Jury on a charge of felonious assault when Magistrate Saturday. Chief Hawk's first trial was on Thursday when Magistrate Andrews held him in $5,000 bail for a further hearing.
The business of branding Miss Ricol occurred in Hawk's studio at 400 West fifty-seven street on Saturday, September 22. Despite heart's unwillingness to prosecute, the Magistrate Attorney decided that it was the people's case, and Hawks was held for the Grand Jury.

135th St. Branch Library Opens Albert Smith Painting Exhibit
Former New York Artist Deserts All-Negro Themes Works Reveal European Influence Most Versatile Artist of His Race
New York's one Negro artist, who resolutely shook off tradition and captured beauty everywhere he found it, is being represented by a series of canvases and etchings at the 135th Street Branch Library, near Lenox avenue. The exhibit by Albert A. Smith, a resident of Paris, is housed on the third floor in the division of Negro Literature and History, and will continue through October and November.
The still youthful palater, who paid his home city a visit early this year, and who had an exhibit downtown, recently returned to France. His collection here, possibly the most varied of any Negro artist, is under the direction of Mrs. Catherine Latimer. W. J. Russell, who heads the art committee of the library, is also due some credit for the showing.
Belittling the popular belief that he should confine himself to subjects of his race, Mr. Smith gives one glimpse of the Paris Latimer number of Bulbous in Spain, with its puggy peasants and its background of bleaching factories. All his later work is distinctly tinged with European influence, especially that of Spain.

In one canvas—"Puerta de Toledo"—he, with bold yet inclusive strikes, catches the quaint charm of the old stone bridge, the pack donkeys with their carrier baskets, and an automobile, decidedly American. Then Louis Madrid, with his cold and forbidding courtyard and pathetically bent beggars.
Speaking of beggars, apparently they have wielded some strange fascination for Mr. Smith. Five paintings include them, always with pathos mingled with what is perhaps cunning. His "Destiny" is another striking study in the subjective.
With these studies from Spain, a group of Brussels into Brussels, one almost imagines that the artist forgets his race. Dispelling that notion are four paintings. One, "Syncopation," catches the verve and the abandon attributed to the Negro by Carl Van Vechten and other word picture painters. The scene is laid in a Paris cabaret, and a jazz band offers primitive melodies.
A leaves study, with its nuttebellum types, does credit to Joel Chandler Harris and the ruder conceptions of Octavius Roy Cohen. A plantation painting follows the same motif. Mr. Smith has studied and painted in Europe for the past seven years. He is a musician and earned his way to the music industry by playing in a jazz band. He was graduated from Dwitt Clinton High School and the Ethical Culture School here, and at the National Academy of Design, where he achieved distinction in lithography.

A few moments after a crash of glass was heard by Patrolman Joseph Matthews of the West 135th street station, he was riding wildly on the running board of a commandered taxicab, firing a volley of lead after a fugitive automobile which was overtaken at 153d street, and Braden Avenue. Two male occupants of the car were arrested on a charge of burglarizing the Grosse shop of David Robinson, at 205 West 135th street, from which $1,200 in dresses, hats, coats and silk underwear were stolen.
The prisoners proved to be Ernest Thomas, alias George Simpson, 29, 67 McCombs place, and Wesley, alias Richard Green, 25, 2716 Eighth avenue. The police say they have twice violated their parole from the penitentiary. The stolen property was found in their automobile and the men confessed to the theft, the police said.

White Southerner Here Employs Negroes
That a white Southerner—from Macon, Ga.—can appreciate Negro workers in the North and offer them the fullest opportunities in his business, is the opinion of Joseph White, president of the Wiggins Coal Company, 141st street and Fifth avenue. Mr. Wiggins declares that he received his best lesson in race relations pitching baseball against Negro players on the old Olympic Field, 136th street and Fifth avenue.
He is a youth, the former Dixie man battled the old Lincoln Giants and the Royals on the diamond. Now, two decades later, he conducts a business employing twenty-five Negroes, almost within stone throw of the baseball field. The fireman and engineer and by the time John Moore is the best engineer on Harlem River, are Negroes. Men are employed in all capacities on the yard.
"And do you use them on the trucks and in other departments?" he was asked.
He stated, "but that is merely because they have not applied for the jobs."
Mr. Wiggins was Deputy Fuel Administrator during the World War II.
Taxi Driver Held Up,

David Steal, a white taxicab driver, 1133 Findley avenue, the Bronx, was found by Patrolman Forster tied to a stair post on the top floor in the hallway of a tenement house. Bramble, the driver said, had hired his cab, lured him into the hallway, ordered him to the top floor at the point of a gun, the truck to the post and the gun of 511. The patrolman heard Steal's cries for help and, after a chase, caught Bramble who, in the meantime, had thrown away his gun.

Effort Made to Reinstate Sleuth
Effort Made to Reinstate Sleuth
Reduced in Rank for Refusal to "Lie" on Friend
An effort is being made today by several prominent Harlem citizens to have resisted to the detective division former Acting Detective Sergeant William Boyden of the Sixteenth precinct, who was ordered to report in uniform in Brooklyn a week ago. At least fifty prominent Harlem business men are to sign a petition for Boyden's restatement, it is reported.
Strictly speaking, Boyden's being placed in uniform is not a demotion, although it calls for a reduction of $1,000,000 yearly. The Police Department, it is said, has no disruption, place any plaintories back on the streets in uniform without there being any charges against the man in question.
Wesley Redding, brother of Captain Redding of the 269th Infantry,
KERS
who died about three years ago, was the first Negro to be appointed to the detective division, but Boyden was the first Negro to enter the department as a first grade detective, it is said.
It was revealed last week that the George Walton, concerning whom Boyden was questioned by Captain Zeig Keller from Headquarters, regarding Walton's connection with the apartment in which Boyden was present at the time his guar and shield was taken from him by Captain Keller, is Patrolman George Walton of the West 135th street station.
Captain Keller, it seems, has been trying to prove that Walton conducts apartments for gambling purposes, and the Captain is said to have disturbed the peace and happiness of at least two homes of Harlem citizens and to secure "evidence" against Walton. Boyden was asked by Captain Keller if Walton owned apartment 10 at 301 West 145th street, where a fourhanded game of whist was being conducted at the time. Boyden replied that Walton did not own it. "It they put Boyden back in uniform because an observer remarked at the time. The early reports that Walton and several other detectives were in the apartment at the time Captain Keller

THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT
BEHIND the news there's usually some little bit of human interest that makes you wonder whether or not
not any man willfully breaks a law. This time I refer to the case of Bernard and Emma Shelter, both white, who are now occupying separate cells in the Ralph avenue police station, Brooklyn.
This man and his wife confessed on Monday to a daily career of shoplifting extending over two months. Read the list of some of the things they stole: Four pairs of women's silk bloomers, 1 lady's hat, 2 children's hats, 1 leather handbag, 3 pairs of women's stockings, 3 pairs of men's socks and 1 pair of roller skates. Topping the climax were two cans of green peas taken from a chain store that led to their arrest.
At least, this father and mother wanted their children and themselves to be partly clad from the cold weather, so they were sensible even in their shoplifting. Then, too, perhaps their children — and there are four of them — wanted to skate like the other children in the block. (It is only natural to want to do what your neighbor does!) Hunger pangs have no respect for law and order, and no doubt, the parents and the children would have found some sustenance in the two cans of peas. Even a poor, jobless man dreads death from starvation.
Not for once am I advocating the breaking of laws, and yet I do venture to say that when a man has not had work for seven months and there are five mouths besides his own to feed, he is forced to break not only one but several laws.
Large families, according to the Sunday papers, are beginning to be fashionable in England. What the English do we feel safe in trying. Nevertheless, it is both safe and sound for us, until we have a more even distribution of wealth, to advocate families of the size that may be supported comfortably.—T.E.B.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1. — In a printed statement made public here this week, Miss Nannie Burroughs, founder and principal of the National Training School located here, urged Negro voters throughout the country to support the Hoover-Curtis ticket in the national election on November 6. She warned them "not to vote any man into power who proposes to tamper with the Constitution of the United States." Miss Burroughs referred to Gov. Smith. Grace Curtis, who vied in the present campaign," she said. "It is far more necessary to give our votes to the world's ablest economist, who knows what to do to feed us, than it is to give them to the man who promises to see what he can do to wet us.
Cooking Hints
The two essentials in cooking tough meat are moisture and prolonged cooking at a gentle heat.
To preserve the nutritive value in vegetables, baking is the best method of cooking. Potatoes, squash, cabbage, onions and carrots may all be baked successfully.
Include one vegetable besides potato in the young child's largest meal.
When fruits are eaten raw none of the vitamin content is lost.
A wire basket is handy for scalding several tomatoes at once. Scald-ed tomatoes need easily.
If brown sugar is kept in an open container in the refrigerator it will

The Value of Dye.
Many people realize what a great help paint is in achieving color harmony, but not so many are aware that dyeing is as great an aid. Color applied by dyeing conceals the shabbiness of worn fabrics; it vastly improves the appearance of unexpensive fabrics; it gives now beauty and lengthens the service of faded furnishings.
Upholstered furniture dimmed with dust and faded with exposure to light and sun may be given a dye bath and the clear coat to restore it. Then out all the dust post-restored with a vacuum cleaner. Wipe thoroughly with a clean cloth wrung out of hot water. Take three packages of dye, dissolve in a gallon of boiling water. Add a tablespoon of salt.
Apply this to the upholstery with a brush, wiping the surface afterward with a clean cloth to take up excess moisture. The dye solution may be applied a second time, if necessary, when the first is dry. Figured upholstery as well as plain may be refreshened to the desired shade if case use dye as well as the shade of the predominating color as possible.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
Don't Be Discouraged!
Just because you're "always a bridesmaid and never a bride" doesn't necessarily mean that you have halls toos or that you haven't got "T.T." Lots of times it shows that you've got darn good sense.
Because you don't hate the man who asks you to marry him is no reason at all why you should accept it at marriage at best is a hard problem and in order to weather storms that arise, and to meet sickness and financial trouble bravely, we've got to have Love as a foundation. Real, pure honest-to-goodness love, and by that I don't mean sympathy or pity or sex passion or the fear of being an old maid.
Honestly now, girls, haven't you sighed with relief many a time because you didn't say "yes" the first time the question was popped? If the man doesn't have the money, then he says, "now and save yourself the trouble of getting a divorce later. Remember the old adage, "Mary in haste and repent at leisure."
Dear Egypty Ann:
I am going to be married soon and
I intend to keep on working. My
people object to this and I think they
have influenced my sweetheart, as
he has been objecting, too, lately.
I earn almost as much as he does
and I know that we'll need the money
as his wages are not enough for us
to live on comfortably.
What do you advise?
NORA.
Dear Nora:
I advise you to keep your job as long as you can. There will be many little jobs that you'll find, but they can't prefill. Work and work together and the

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
By Lillian Sharpe Hunter
Carpets and rugs that have faded may be freshened also by the dye bath. They may be dyed on the floor with a paint brush, coarse sponge or a piece of thick, coarse cloth. A rug that is ugly and badly faded may be greatly improved in this way. This process is used to freshen up the color, not to dye a new color.
Velvets Dyed Successfully.
Velvet and velour furnishings are greatly improved by redycing to renew the original color. They are also cleaned, for they must be washed before they are dyed. After washing, they are plunged into boiling dye and bollod for half an hour, burden won't rest too heavily on either of you.
Sincerely,
EGYPSY ANN.

Go Slow on the Make-Up
PLEASE, please, good people, don't be too liberal Enough is enough and more's too much. Never would I say, "Don't use cosmetics." Most of us would be sad-looking people if we went about with shiny noses, colorless cheeks and shaggy eyebrows. But we wouldn't look nearly so bad as we would if our application of cosmetics was overdone. First of all, we remember that what's sauce for the goose may be indigestion for the gander. We're a people of many colors and shades. Our features range from typical Anglo-Saxon to typical Ethiopian. Therefore, we've got to know ourselves. We've got to know our shade of powder, our shade of rouge and our lipstick if we really believe that we look better from the use of cosmetics. All that lipstick carefully or not at all! As for eyebrow pencils and eyelash coloring, most of us look better when we mass them up.
None of us want to look cheap or tough. Yet, we're apt to give deliberately that appearance. And appearance plays such a great part! Quality, not quantity, please. Nice, clean powder-puffs and no haste in applying powder.
We must remember, too, that electric light and daylight are not the same. Under the blittering glow of most electric lamps we might pass, but under "Ole Sol" we might look freakish.
Let's use make-up as a means to an end, and not as a feature in itself.

residents who had sel ff, and In every caso comment was unfavorable,
‘One well known doctor, who was here this summer, was strong in his con-

‘on the part of tho White American to carry his ant!-Negro propaganda into

up and waiked out, The word “nigger” 1s perhaps tho most frequent one
in the play.

for her to say how thoroughly disgusted she was with the play.

London is full of Negro artists at the moment and to see them strolling around Leicester Square, Pleadilly and other streets romins one of Seventh avenues in New York.
Miss Marlon Anderson, after a year's study in London, besides having a career as a Queen's Hall host with the famous London Symphony orchestra and the Acadian Hall, is returning on the S. S. Aquitaine, to a Saturday's "Saturday in London," where she will entertain her stay in England. She has made many, many good friends, and with her charming man, all who love London as soon as her American engagements are over.
The much tallied of Paul Robeson gave another of his popular afternoon spiritual programs "The Gift of Grace" on his show that has simply "wild West end audiences wild with his wonderful voice and his rendition of the Negro spirituals." When one think of Robeson's work, the afternoon concerns it is absolutely marvelous. Just think of his last one drawing, because multiply that by five dollars, it is what in good old American dollars.
This proves to me without a doubt that Robben is certainly much too big for "Show Boat" and without him (as we say in America), the show couldn't be as big as it should. Lawrence Brown, his accompanist, who contributes much to the success of Mr. Robben's concerts. In regards to Robben's argument, Equity I see that he is arguing that America at this time and when all is said and done the American Ofay is just trying to force him to return mainly because he is really having too much pressure on him. On this point he really couldn't do over there. He can remain in Europe indefinitely. I am sure, and make far more than they will allow him to make in America. And everything, I hope he will not return soon.
Littleton McDuff, a prominent detective of Los Angeles, Calif., is visiting in New York and states that he will be in London in a few months. He will spend a fortnight before going to the continent, visiting Germany, Holland, Spain and other countries. Mr. McDuff is spending his holidays in Europe and is enjoying Paris very much.
Baddy Procter has returned to London after a fortnight in Paris. Mrs. Emma Layton and daughter, Alela, have also returned to London and are at 1 Doughty street, W. C. 2.
Miss Dora Newman of New York and Les Angeles has returned to London after an extended trip on the Conde Nast Newman expedition week in London with Mrs. Browning before leaving for the States.
George H. Dosher, the young bassist, is coming much comment in the halls of the Four Harmony Kings and during the month of October he will feature the much liked "Old Man River" song at the well known Troon Cafe in London.
Mrs. Viola Colson called yesterday for New York. Mrs. Colson is one of the dancing girls in London. Showing recent operation and will perhaps return to London after a visit with her mother in New York. During her illness the entire Drury Lank staff, some of whom were wonderfully nice to her, for which she is indeed very grateful.
After a most delightful summer the weather is fast changing in England and, of course, London fogs will soon be paying their annual visits.
Another John Payne Party
John C. Payne, the popular singer, and the leading host among cur group on this side, gave one of his unusual Sundays evening in honor of Miss Maria Traito. Of all Mr. Payne's parties, I dare say this one was perhaps the finest yet given by the well-known John. The guests began arriving early, and the audience was beautiful home was simply packed to the brim. Anderson, beautiful gown, was introduced to the many guests by the host, assisted by Miss Zalde Jackson and Barbara Brown. The main feature of the affair was a most delightful musicals.
Miss Beatrice Lilly, who in private job is the Hon. Lady Peel, took part in the program, and entertained for at least two months in museums with comical readings and sings from her wonderful repertoire.
The well-known and popular American Dianne Sayers simply had the time of her life to entertain in their power way with a number of their rants and sings and I felt perfectly at home the entire event and remained until the early hours of morning. Being American, I could not notice the way they made themselves noticeable who did all of their power to make me Payne's party one of the finest affairs he has ever given in London.
Miss Anderson sang most beautifully, Tamar Ayton gave several numbers from her power to make the delight of many present. The Society Trio many of their beautifully posed numbers. Marina Barbate, with and Bernice, played several selective hits his masterly way. Miss Zadzea decoration accompanied herself in several numbers.
Bruce R. Garner, Jr. fresh from his tour with Garner, was a prominent guest, and he was also a host who has been studying in London for two years and has recently been making a tour of his country, another striking feature of the party, the beautifully gowned titles of our guests, especially Miss Dresca Celburn, Mrs. Marion Proctor, Mrs. Marion Anderson and Mrs.
A few of the guests included Lady Duncan Sisters, Anton Dollin, Bathsheba most popular and finestancer, Mr. and Mrs. Buddy Proctor,Mr. and Mrs. Turtun Missley, Mr. and Mrs. Ivan H.

PAUL ROBESON TO FIGHT DEPORTATION M. & S. Circuit in Big Expansion Program
Robeson to Fight Action in London
Singer May Resume Role of Lawyer to Stay Deportation
A copyrighted dispatch to the Chicago Tribune published in the Sunday New York News declares that Caroline Dudley Regan, white producer, has come to London and filed action against Paul Robeson and the Drury Lane Theatre, where he is playing. Robeson's difficulties arose from the signing of a contract to star in a revue planned by Miss Regan. Deciding that the role would injure his voice and reputation, the actor offered to buy the contract, but was refused. He was suspended by Actors' Equity Association upon the producer's complaint and his failure to show why he should not be hired. He himself a lawyer, Robeson was scheduled to begin today the battle to prevent his return to America. He is acclaimed nightly in the role he sings in "Show Boat" and has settled himself with his wife, infant son and mother-in-law for a long stay.
Dolores, Fox Star, Studies Roles From Life
Dolores Del Rio, who is playing the stellar role in Fox Films version of "No Other Woman Lou" in the movie, has impressed the impression of pleasure in life. "I have always been happy," she declares. "I am fortunate. But I have seen others suffer—sometimes for others, sometimes for others, not me! I am able to portray sorrow I believe it is necessary for one to have a capacity for pity—large pity, not being before the camera I have learned that an actress must study life. She need not go into the slums to study. She can keep a close touch on the lives of her friends and fired about her and look upon them with understanding and sympathy." "No Other Woman" is coming to the M. & S. Roosevelt Theatre for the ways, commending Saturday, Oct. 8.
Coldly Received, "Blackbirds" Carrying On
THE byword of Broadway, "Look at 'Able's Irish Rose'," has now been changed to "Look at Lew Leslie's 'Blackbirds of the Timsas'." The celebrated song, "Timsas," from the flop and emerged the most remarkable success in show business. And while "Blackbirds has achieved no such reputation as yet," the revived theme "There May be more unobtrusive manner and for ten weeks struggled through the heat, a mediocre success. Then something electric happened, a nose and for nine weeks has held as many customers as can manage to squeeze into the Liberty Theatre at each performance, Wednesday and Saturday, and for the Thursday midnight shows included.
The very thing that put "Able's Irish Rose" over with the theatregoing public, has put Law Leslie's "Blackbirds" reasons known only to the gods, "Blackbirds" received a set of unfavorable reviews from the critics. This always serves to retard the business of a Broadway production, but Law Leslie's and several numbers, rehearsed the chorus in new steps, placed two new comedy skits in the show and then rustled around trying to convince people he had a great show. For a time he was the king of the numbers that came to see "Blackbirds" increased almost daily.
"Blackbirds" neared the capacity mark in the eighth week of its run in the tenth week was a complete sell out. It has been that way ever since.
"Only my faith in the show has turned what looked like a failure into a huge success," said Law Leslie. The show shows that ever came to New York, but the job of convicting playgoers of it was no easy task. The battle, however, has been won and what pleases the success now attendant upon it is the faith in "Blackbirds" has been justified.
Barnrete, C. C. Rosemond, George Garner, W. H. Berry, Lawrence Brown, Walter Richardson, R. Claplan, F. H. Robb, Greenlee and Drayton and others spending the week-end in the south of England and did not attend; also Lady Cook and many others of Mr. Payne's good friends. I very grateful to Mr. Payne because of the happiness and enjoyment he brings to us ever so often in London. As they say in England, he is most delightfully charming indeed.
Greenlee and Drayton, assisted by the Miles and Rogers and Hazel Anderson, opened their new building exclusive Chez Tagalong Club in West End last week. They were an instant hit and will remain at the club three months, also appearing in Variety. This is the popular Halloween with the Colleen Tagalong follow. Little Miss Hilda Rogers is a tremendous success with the net, and it looks as if she will soon become a big favorite in London. Her rendition of Ode of the South' at Mr. Payne's party was one of the big hits of the evening.
Noble Slissle is at the Angle, Birkenhead, this week, with two weeks in Ireland to follow before returning to London.

Mr. Schiffman Is Peeved
But Mr. Schuyler Brought Up His Heavy Artillery and the Enemy Is on the Run
MOTHER, gaze upon your blue-eyed Irish darlings! At last we have smoked out our friend Mr. Schiffman, but he is at a loss because he is torn between a feeling of revulsion and sincerity, therefore he must have hit the happy medium in between and came to the conclusion that while fully not hypocritical, still there's a little hypocrisy in all of us. Without smiling we note that one of the things which seemed to worry good Mr. Schiffman was because we "insisted" that Leigh Whipper had master of ceremonies at the Sam Crug benefit performance.
Well, well, well? Now, what harm can there be in that? We could think of no better master of ceremonies than Leigh, but if that's all that's worrying you, Brother Schiffman, let's have the theatre and the dramatic editor of this paper will be the master of ceremonies. As to destructive criticism, let us refer you to a living author. Shall we resurrect that great contribution on the matter written by Eugene Gordon and reproduced in these columns some time ago? We admit that we are sincere, brother, and you know it, yes? If WE arranged a benefit for Crag? Ha, ha.
We hope that readers of this column will send in letters telling of their reaction to both the letters. Come on in people, let us know if you think Mr. Schuyler was telling the truth and if he has placed Mr. Schiffman on the defensive. We await your pleasure. Let us hear from you Here are the letters:
My dear friend Dougherty:
It was a pleasure and satisfaction to read what you had to say concerning the nuisance of crowds of actors congregating at 131st street and Seventh avenue, 132nd street and Seventh avenue, and in front of the Lafayette. While not very strong for the general tactics and methods of Harlem bluecoats, I cannot help but feel that they did an excellent job when they cleared those corners. It had gotten so that it was something of an ordeal for a woman to go through that block, what with the audible and suggestive remarks, ogling, and sometimes touching to which she was most likely to be subjected. Apparently these men who clustered along the sidewalk in that block had about as much respect for their women as Dr. Du Bols has for Senator Helfin. There can be no more intrusive, but this buildup is coming in crowds for hours, on both sides of the walk and forcing women to run the gauntlet of foul-mouthed, discourteous man, is altogether out of order.
It was a pleasure and satisfactory cerning the nuisance of crowds of ad Seventh avenue, 132nd street and a Lafayette. While not very strong for Harlem bluecoats, I cannot help but when they cleared those corners. It is of an ordeal for a woman to go three and suggest remarks, ogling, and most likely to be subjected. Apparent sidewalk in that block had about as Du Bois has for Senator Heflin. The a man stopping and looking at a business of camping in crowds for a forcing woman to run the gauntlet at altogether one of order.

MR. SCHIFFMAN T
There is another matter I have been intending to call to your attention for some time. It concerns the outrageous and unprecedented filmmakers of the so-called ushers at the Lafayette Theatre. I have been frequenting the剧院 for many, many years, but never have I encountered such an insulting, rude, indifferent and calloused crowd. Seldom are they at their stations when one enters the theatre and when one does encounter them one finds them to be innocent of the most elementary knowledge of courtesy. They will come to a person's seat long after one has wandered through the dark and found a seat, flash their lights in one's eyes and demand in the tones of a drill sergeant to be shown one's ticket. They will order people to move over to make room in a manner that is reminiscent of a police station. And, strange to relate, these young men, with their coat collars open, their caps askew, and fairly oozing indifference and impoliteness, have the unbelievable nerve to hang around expecting a tip for the service which they seem to think they have rendered.
I charge without fear of contradiction that in no other theatre in New York City are patrons forced to tolerate such service. It seems to me that the patrons of the Lafayette Theatre would be more at ease if there were none of these discurteous, slovenly, tip-caddying "ushers" to annoy them.

After rounding the rules and regulations you laid down in the last issue of your worthy paper concerning the text of my reply to Mr. George Schuyler's letter, criticizing the conduct of the Lafayette Theatre ushers, I was sorely tempted to drop the entire matter and refuse to enter into any discussion or controversy with you. I resented your threats of censorship just as I resented your "insistence" that, if you arranged a benefit performance for Sam Craig, Leigh Whipner be the master of ceremonies.
I am writing this letter only because I promised to do so. I am writing it despite the fact that I am constantly wavering between a feeling of revulsion for you and your paper, between a feeling that both you and your paper are sincere in your statements and professed policies and a feeling that you are arch-hypocrites whose greatest desire is to criticize destructively. I hope that my opinion of you and your paper, as formally expressive as do that you are sincere, impartial and friendly.
I am sorry that I do not know Mr. Schuyler. But any one with an eye not altogether partial can easily recognize his letter as the work of a writer who is frequently more interested in picturesque language than in an accurate statement of facts. Mr. Schuyler will know what I mean when I refer him to John Ruskim's advice to youthful writers and to Shakespeare's admonition that we beware "that vaunting ambition that overleaps itself."
As one who is in almost constant attendance at the Lafayette Theatre, as one who is largely responsible for the business training of its personnel, as one who sincerely believes that he is not altogether blinded by the faults of his organization, I say most emphatically that Mr. Schuyler's statement that the ushers are a "callous, indifferent crowd," that walk around with their "coat-collars our caps asker," is entirely false.
We have eight or nine ushers in this theatre. They are the best ushers we have been able to employ. They are not bruskers. They are not chosen because of their physical prowess. Three or four of them are men of family; two or three are students.
They are instructed to go about their work with care and courtesy, always remembering the customer is always right." I have seen these boys stand silently while the waitstaff epithets were hurled at them, while they were struck by the noise while they were spat upon. Such is frequently the lot of ushers all over the city. And I have also seen them neither human endurance nor my instructions could oblate forceful reply to insult.
If Mr. Schuyler o rany patrons of the Lafayette Theatre or readers of your worthy paper call to the attention of the management any discountary or "dis-service," as Mr. Schuyler calls it, on the part of any of the authorities in this theatre, you may assured and appropriate action promptly taken. No one realizes better than we do; the theatre's greatest asset is the friendly good-will of its neighbors and its patrons and no one is more desirous than we are to maintain that good-will.
Very sincerely yours.
Playhouse Starts Subscription Season This Month
The Provincetown Playhouse will open its fourteenth subscription season with "The Final Balance," a poem by the Adish of David Pinsik. It is the debut of the last week in October. The second play will be "The Earth Between," by Vergil Geddes, an American writer, whom the Provincetown considers its favorite. The third play will be Paul Green's latest work, "Tread the Green Grass," a tragic fantasy with a sixteen-year-old protagonist. It is set in the past and is very different in themes and treatment from "In Abraham's Bosom." Paul Green's Pulitzer Prize play, "In Abraham's Bosom," was produced by the Provincetown Playhouse. "Tread the Green Grass" will involve some departures from the conven-

The fourth subscription bill will be a play, not yet completed, by E. E. Cummings. Cummings' first play, "Him," was done by the Province of New York to reopen in October. This reopening has been postponed until later in the season. Erlin O'Brien-Moore and Edward J. Ballantine will play the leads, the Province of New York will play with Cummings that, if it did with O'Brien, it intends to produce all the plays he writes during the next few years. One of the policies of this experimental theatre is to offer a limited opportunity to have not one, but several productions, at least until they achieve some measure of recognition. Eleven of Eugene O'Nell's plays were produced by the Province Playhouse before one was accepted by the commercial producers.

"Deep Harlem" Big Sensation
Dancer Show Has Promise of Rounding Out Into Something Big
Earl Dancer's "Deep Harlem" proved nothing short of a sensation at its opening matries at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday. The reception which it received, the management feels, would justifi an extended run. As it is, the play will be shown for this week only and will ten go for a short tour during which the finishing touches will be put to the show to prepare it for a Broadway run.
"Deep Harlem" is presented in ten spectacular scenes. It is the story of a famous Kushite tribe. The story is an ancient tribal home through several generations, which brings them to Harlem and in front of the most famous theatre, in Harlem—the Lafayette Theatre.
By far the most impressive and imposing scenes which have ever been staged in a local theatre since the early comedy days are part of "Deep Harlem." Among these scenes are the ancient forest home of the Kushite tribe; an arid desert encampment to which this tribe is driven by heartless slave drivers; a comedy, singing and dancing; a convict farm; a popular Harlem gin mill—and the Latychette Theatre.
Every element that goes to make a "Deep Harlem—contumes, scenery, comedy, singing and dancing—all these are done better in "Deep Harlem" than in any show which has graced a local stage in years.
unusually large cast is presenting "Deep Harlem." There are seventy-five entertainers in all, including: Salem Tutt Whitney, J. Homer Tutt, Mubel Ridley Grant, Martha K. Golee, Pearl Darrell, Golee Four, Norlern Brothers, Pearl McCormack, Louis Cole, Harry Mays, Charles Willis, Alice Gorgas and Howard Elmore.
Feature photoplay is the "Girl He Could Not Buy" starring Pauline Garon.
When the Ghost Failed To-Materialize Again
Another one of those shows which came to Harlem but two weeks back, accompanied by the ballyhoo with our managerial friend's great display of extravagant terms, closed, we understand, midt' the walling and the walling and the seem to be in vogue in these days. It was an undersized little performer of tender age who told, for the benefit of a number of his fellows back stage of another theatre, how he came on with the show from Chicago and planned to return to the Windy City at the end of the engagement. With a wan smile he completed his sale by asserting that it was the best attempt, back to the city of the racketeers at this time.
The youngster said that the chorus of bees—yeo—ti—ful damois, supposed not to have been seen in the theas parts before, but which we discovered was the same old erenroerererraerra stunt of a theatre manager, did not get their money and there was no way for them to get it. Which made us smile when we recalled how a certain producer was ballyhooed into the limelight with the announcement that he would foster a club which would give protection to the chorus girl, et al.
Our performers are nothing but a band of roving and misdirected minstrels without gumption to wake up from their dreams and form an organization for their own protection. Even the chorus girls hasten to Join some social organization that doesn't amount to a tinker's damn instead of getting together and sinking about fifty cents a month to give themselves protection when they need it. Once upon a time it used to be the hick town far from home in which the shows would usually bust up, leaving the people high and dry, which is the biggest hick town of them all. Yet certain managers here will tell us how the performers are better off today than in the past. If Harlem knew the real conditions surrounding certain things, the theatrical in our midst we believe Harlem would for once really sit up and take notice. Some day we will summon enough courage to let the cat out of the bag, then there's going to be some fun.
Provincetown Playhouse, said at the first meeting of the company; "We feel that last season was justified in the production of the musical, because that the play started, and the enthusiastic reception it received, made it clear to us that there is an audience alive to experimentation in the theatre. The Provincetown this season is a great opportunity to policy of trying out the work of new writers, and of producing plays which merit production but are not suited to the show-shop standards of Broadway. The Provincetown has a newly organized central group. In addition to its directors—James Light, Eugene O'Neill, M. Eleanor Fitzgerald, Cleon Throemmorton—there will be an advisory board made up of Edward Gantine, E. E. Cummings, and

Famed "Ramona" At the Lincoln
Dolores Del Rio a Delight in This Much Talked About Feature Film
the much heralded "Ramona," from Helen Hunt Jackson's novel of the same name, has at last arrived in our midst and will be screened at the New Lincoln Theatre for four days, commencing Thursday afternoon. It was the writer's privilege to bring the film, which brings Dqlores Del Rio, that beautiful Mexican star of stars, to use in what may be classed as her greatest screen triumph and we make bold to say that Lincoln audiences not be disappointed after viewing the film, which has been coupled with one of the most successful songs of the day.
"Ramona" was written by Helen Hunt Jackson with a purpose. She did not know at the time of writing that she was one of the great American classics. Such is the picture which will come into Mrs. Downs' theatre for a four-day run next Thursday. The day the stage attraction at the Lincoln this week sees "Harlem Vanities" in full swing with thirty-five people, including the Three Hottentots, the Lone Leopard, and Moxie, Jimmie Nelson, Audrey Tatum, Bob Williams, Louis Dandridge and the Twelve Lincoln Steppers. Next week the "Lincoln Follies" will be the time of the revu end of the entertainment, to produce Catherine Patterson, Ozle McPherson, the Pickaninny Four, Skeets Winston and others well known in the profession. As in the previous week, to add to the reputation of the Lincoln Theatre continue to keep the house filled with an appreciative audience, and the coming of "Kara" would see so the house being tared to capacity every afternoon and evening.
Dancer Opens "Deep Harlem" Here
With smiling Billy Andrews as a sort of singing master of ceremonies, introducing, or rather presenting, his favorite favorite—that's how the idols of Harlem were welcomed back from Philadelphia.
"Meet the Gang" seems to be the slogan along the avenue this week, opening with a lid appointee. Amanda Randolph, John Mason, Dusty Fletcher, Fosco Montellain, Eloise Bennatt, Julia Moody, Ted Blackmon, Charles Ray, all were greeted with a lid appointee. Politics and plots, proved to have its comedy moments, too. Billy Andrews is the young mayor of a small town, George Randol, a militant, with the aid of an adventurer and an actress from New York, played by Barrington Carter and Susie Sutton.
Besides which the mayor is in love with the politician's daughter, Artie Cain. Of course, the snappy young mayor wins out, thwarts the blackmailers and gets the girl. Ted Blackmon, as a shrewed hood from the village clerk, is pursued by one of the village girls, Edna Young, and they

INDOOR COURT SEASON TO OPEN
Basketball Officially Ushered in When Renaissance Meet Bronx Pros.
COLORED CHAMPIONS READY
Games to Be Broadcast From Renaissance Casino Every Sunday Night Starting October 14
With a record of which they can very well afford to feel proud the famous Renaissance Fire to tomahawk the court on the night of Oct. 14 at their home court, Renaissance Cusino, when they line up for their season's work against the crack Bronx Professionals, that band of brilliant white players that never fail to receive it warm shout of welcome at the hands of colored court fans.
Not given to the mysterious or in any way attempting to keep followers of the team on the anxious seat, Manager Bob Douglas has intimately refused to divulge the persecution, to his outfit until the night when they take the court in their season's imminent game. It is expected that the team will be made up of the same strong men, who will victories during the past few year, although it is being widened the some new blood will be infused and a surprise or two will be the reward of those in attendance at the casino and the sports hall. Keeping abide of the times and marching right along with those progressive things in sport which will always keep them to the front, the management of the Renaissance Five will introduce a new wrist, a new shoulder and will go a full description of the games at the casino, this broadcasting stunt being installed at a time when the radio is playing such a great part in the lives of many pooers in which will be sent over station WPCH.
While no official announcement has been made in regard to the leader of the team on the floor, we have it that the team will be playing at Hilton (Kid). Sieum will again take his place at the head of the Renaissance team as captain. Sieum will come up with the team and lead the team in the toughest spots in the game, and in

WITH the end of the competitive tennis season at hand, we transfer our activities from the tennis courts to the basketball courts.
**I** is true that during the next six to eight weeks football will feature the country's athletic news, but it is also a fact that during this season, we will be playing pikskin chasers for popular attention and approval.
**I** New York are fortunate if we follow and like both sports, for since one is played in the daytime and the other at night, we can partake of both morses without overseeing it. Being the case, we will be playing with the goals of The Amsterdam News to be first with current events, we need to be on the front line, so as to give plenty of attention to the various teams around the city are all active in their preparations for the coming season, and if their plans materialize, we will have plenty of the basketball courts in the big city.
BOB DOUGLAS and his Renaissance Five will start their season on Sunday night, Oct. 14, at the Renaissance Casino, with the fast Bronx Professionals, which is his first team, and his colleagues will again give the fans nothing but the best that can be obtained.
THE colored champions were a mighty good team last year, and with the same men in their line-up portends to be as good, but as an insurance that they will have excellent performers in their line-up and will contingencies. Manager Bob has added some new men to his team.

Trotter, Promising Back on Virginia State, Breaks Leg
Notwithstanding the return of practically all expected veterans, a gall of gloom hangs over the football camp of Virginia State College because the team lost to the season in which Trotter, a key promising halfback, broke his leg during seriography. It is feared that he will be lost to the squad for the balance of the season, though physical injury may be a reason that he may be back by late November. The injury was sustained during the first hard seriography of the year, when two linemen, taking out secondary, hit Trotter from different angles and moved to the infirmary for treatment. The first hard seriography, watched by four or five hundred students, was a keenly contested 0 to 8 match between the varsity and the junior team. When new coaches up much better than coaches had hoped for, and it looks like a lively scramble for Saturday's game with N. C. College. At least fifty men got into the thick of it when the injury to Trotter the entire squad would have been given a chance.
The opening game scheduled for Saturday will be an interstate affair, with the State College of North Carolina making her bow into C. I. A. A. football. Not much is known of her strength, but with a veteran team coached by the crafty "Birdie" Crudan, N. C. State ought to provide some real stiff opposition to all teams of the association.

GODFREY COMING FOR BIG FIGHT
Will Quit Rather Than Suffer Runaround Like Harry Wills
RIDLEY PARK, Pa., Sept. 29. George Godfrey, the Black Leopard of Leiperville, who is training here for his ten-round bout with Roberto Roberti, Italian heavyweight contender, at Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, Wednesday night, is determined to battle his way to the top of the heavyweight heap this coming season or quit the game for good. He made it clear to Jim Dougherty, his manager, that he is not going to stand for the same treatment that Harry Wills received from the famous Bliek Panther was seeking a bolt for the heavyweight game.
“I can beat all those white boys, if they give me half a break,” he said after yesterday’s workout, “and I’ll prove it this winter. First I’ll polish off this Roberti and then take on the others.”
Godfrey is confident that he will knock out Roberti in less than five rounds. He figures that the big Italian's style is made to order for him and that his terrific punching strength will prove too much even for the iron chin and stout heart of the big contender from the Land of Sunshine.
Dougherty announced after yesterday's workout that Godfrey would do his last boxing Monday, going into New York that evening and going through a light exercise drill at a metropolitan gymnasium Tuesday afternoon.
“Godfrey doesn’t need much boxing,” he said. “George is a master boxer and has been working steadily all through the summer. In fact, he’s ready to step in against Roberti tonight. He now weighs about 235 pounds, which is his best fighting weight. It may be that I’ll stop him boxing after tomorrow if he shows the slightest signs of staleness in his workout.”

Championships to Be Stag ed at Summer Home of

N. Y. A. C.
The A. A. U. national junior outdoor track and field championship meet will be held at the summer home of the New York Athletic Club, Navors岛, Pelham Manor, New York, on Saturday afternoon, October 13, according to an announcement made last week at the A. A. U. headquarters in the Woolworth Building. The championships have been held annually for the past 27 years in connection with the A. A. U. national senior track and field and relay championships, but due to the senior championships this year we will not Olympic tryouts the track and field committee decided not to combine the junior and senior programs. The change in the rule governing eligibility that the junior champions was made at the annual convention of the A. A. U. last November will make for more interesting competitions of the more prominent star athletes will be eligible to the junior classes.
Under this new rule the championship program is divided into five categories: running, (2) walking, (4) dumpling, (4) dumpling, (4) dumpling. The winner of an event in the junior championships in any of the said classes shall be ineligible for further competition as a junior in a competition won a junior or senior championship in running is eligible for the junior class in jumping, hurdling, walking or throwing events, provided, of course, that the player is ship at Amsterdam this past summer. For example, Ray Barbutt, winner of the Olympic 400 meter championship at Amsterdam this past summer, is ineligible for classes in jumping, throwing, hurdling and walking until he has won a championship in each of these events. There are twenty events on the program as follows: 100 yards, 220 yards, 440 yards, 380 yards, 1 mile run, 6 mile run, 3 mile walk, 2 mile steepeachle, 120 yards high hurdles, 100 yards high hurdles, running high jump, running broad jump, running hop, step and jump, pole vault, putting 16 lb. shooting discs, throwing 16 lb. shooting discs, running 56 lb. weight and throwing javelins.
Entries will close on October 5,
with Major P. J. Walsh, Chairman of
Field Committee,
Room 2742, Woolworth Building,
New York City.
Fight May Be Postponed
As we go to press it is doubtful if Roberto Roberti will be able to face George Godfrey tonight at Ebbets Field. The whiteighter has been suddenly attacked with kidney trouble, when doctors have taken him hand ever since the other night. If it is true that the Italian is in any way afflicted with the disease he would be a fool to go through with his fight against Godfrey, for the good colored fighter is one of the hardest punchers in the game. He is a number of other fighters who, though given the decision, are not the same after receiving the pile driving blows of Godfrey. It is said that while Roberti issued statements, which gave his followers reason to believe that he was confident of holding his position, he has reached him of the power of Godfrey's blows and another "whispering campaign" 'la onto the effect that Roberto is not at all anxious to swap punches with big George.
GANS MAKES HIT IN HARLEM BOUT
Slated to Meet Andy Divodi at the Garden Friday
Night
Making his first appearance in a Harlem ring Saturday night, Baby Joe Gens, a boxer, boxer, established himself as a drawing card of the first order when before a packed crowd of Old World athletic Gijs beat. Tony Vaccarelli in every round of the ten-round main event to win a well-earned decision.
The bout climaxed an evening of excitement and entertainment of three-round bouts and a four-round preliminary.
The semi-windup of ten rounds was a rousing exhibition between a boxer and a champion. Nick Quagarelli, won, giving Angel Genti quite a beating which the latter took in a game manner.
Short of stature and arm, Dodo Jackson in the white opponent, Pinkey Silverberg but only after giving all that he had and the fans a great run for their money.
Although he lost, was a crowd pleaser and Silverberg's margin of victory was very narrow.
When the announcer of the main event announced the weights of Baby Vaccarelli, 140% pounds, and Tony Vaccarelli, 140% pounds, he displeasure, but before the first round was over they learned that the seven pound advantage of the white boy was the greatest career. Vaccarelli carried his left shoulder high with his jaw safely hidden behind it, making it an extremely difficult target for a straight white boy by shooting terrific right uppercuts to the chin to straighten him up and then crossing with the right. The Italian stood up under a terrible pasting in the first round and did the same thing for nine more rounds. He is certainly as tough as in the fourth he tried to play. In Gans and the crowd came to its feet, but Gans was his master at slugging as well as boxing in spite of the seven pound advantage of his opponent.
Gans fought practically a one-handed battle. His famous left hand thumped him, and his left thumb was sore and he wanted the hand in good shape when he healed the wound day night at the Garden. He could battle without a scratch and came by and paid his respects to the old pages before heading home to bed.

Miland hasn't been in these parts since he was fighting in the South ever since he arrived from Cuba. He is a light heavyweight and feels that he can take the measure of any of the boys. He does not speak a word of Englehter. He is not a boy in a way that is understood in every language.

"Chocolate" a Gentleman
Romeo Dougherty, Esq,
Sporting Editor,
Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir,
I wait at the bout last night
which took place between Kid
Chocolate and Johnny Erickson
at the St. Nick's Arena, Broadway
and Sixty-albth street. I occupied
Ingle seat and had a good
angle to see the bout from every
angle.
The Kid outmatched his opponent in ability, skill, sportsmanship and gentleness action.
From the start of the fight until the finishing of sams he has demonstrated to the world that the Negro is the equal if not the superior of the white man when proper trained.
When the white man is confronted by the superior force and intelligence, he often reverts to the primeval stage of the neanderthal man.
The action of Johnny Erickson was rather disgraceful. A child of six or seven years old would not have resorted to such debasling actions as he had demonstrated before. It only goes to show that the white man with all his intellectual training lacks the fundamental principle of true sportsmanship.
Had Kid C. plate been fouled in the fight, it probably would have been overlooked, but resorting to such a debasing act as to dull the joy of the Kid C. shows not only a lack of true sportmanship and parental training, but an inherent fault which is demonstrable among his race when confronted with superior intelligence.
The Kid acted like a gentleman and has placed his race in a much more comfortable position than the gentleman to the finish without demonstrating the spirit of revenge.
I hope that all Negroes who are engaged in all forms of athletics will emulate the action of this noble gentleman, Kid Chocolate, for by so doing we will be able to sportmanship the art of true sportmanship.
Thanking you sincerely,
Respectfully yours,
ELLIS A. WILLIAMS,

Cuban Refused to Knock Out Unsportsmanlike Fighter But Beats Him Up
At the St. Nicholas Arena on Monday night the customers were treated to a display of fighting at the hands of Kid Chocolate that left no doubt in their minds of the ability of the fight to the finish it was an awful beating that Johnny Erickson took at the bands of the Cuban. Erickson, outclassed all the way, skillfully jetted the Commission for the deportsmanuals tactics which he displayed against the gentlemenly little Chocolate. Unable to meet the Cuban in equality of fighting or boxing ability, white boys were given the opportunity at one time during the fight Erickson spot in the face of the Cuban, who held his head and continued to batter Johnny from pearl to post. While we give you great credit for his display of unusual gentlemanly qualities in the face of what was happening in the ring, it could not have been held against him if he had been given the chance. He was evident that he could have knocked out the white boy it is the opinion of the writer that he decided to heat up Erickson instead of adding a punch humane and endure hotties.
It is said that Erickson will be a long time waiting before he is given the chance to play. Mr. Eddie McMahon, matchmaker of the club who had a great deal to do with helping to bring the Cuban to the front, is bitter against Erickson for not allowing him, which should forever bar him from further listic activities in these parts.

Charley West to Introduce New System Of Play at Howard University This Year
Charley West to Introduce New System Of Play at Howard University This Year
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. Z.—The return of the plinklin season raises the question of what has become of the order of President Johnson of Howard University that football at that school must be played on a strictly amateur basis and players shall not receive free board and lodging, directly or indirectly, on account of their athletic prowess.
Fifty men have reported to Coach Charley West for football practice. This number indicates that a free training table and training quarters are being provided. Besides, the letter men who were in the strike of last year would hardly have reported without an understanding regarding board and lodging.
But West has a larger problem than the matter of a free training table and training quarters. He must build a winning team. The football prestige of the school and his making as a coach are at stake. The role of head coach is new to him, but his work will be watched critically.

He will introduce a new system of play at Howard University. Instead of the old style game of line plunging, which Watson kept in use, West will use the modern open game that will be a duplication of the Washington and Jefferson system, which he learned as a backfield star. He will make a combination of the systems used in the game by Jefferson and by Glenn Warner at Leland-Stanford. Into this combination he plans to make use of certain styles of play employed at Pittsburgh. West has made a study of West has made a study of the strong points in the various systems against which he played as a member of the Washington and Jefferson system. He is planning the system which will be used at Howard this year. One of his first changes in the Watson system was his abolition of the system in the giving of signals.
Practice is in full swing. The Warner dummy scrimmage, with slight alterations, has been last season's highest goal in mental drills. It is especially fitted to drill the men in the fundamentals of football and a large number and variety of plays in the shortest amount of time. A new bucking machine has been constructed according to specifications by West. Its use with regulations allows men to build up the stamina of the men. There is an abundance of material on hand. Nine letter men have reported. They include Captain James Brown, Harry Payne, Hawkins, Jack Young, Webb and Pete Tyson. Sal
lie, an end of 1926, has reported, but has not yet begun practice.
Candidates for the team include Joe Benson, the best of Jammoon, Ben Brown, Hines, and Desmond Shall, a new man from the Newark Central High School, is perhaps the most promising of the new men. If he continues his present showing he will be able to fill "Tick" Smith's shoes, reported that "Tick" will play professional football this fall and winter.
Other new men include Shelton from Darner High, Wiltshire from Armstrong and Lee from Woodland High School.
Assisting West are "Biff" Martin and Bob Miller, who are ineligible to play this year under the four-star Edgar Long and Raymond Dokes, who helped Watson. These assistants make the whole coaching staff entirely new. Martin and Miller are working with the line. West is leading the ends and backfield men.
The first game will be against Livingstone College at Sallisbury, N.C., next Saturday. This game last strike of the football players a free training table and training quarters.

MUSIC
Jazz, the syncopated branch of classical music, has conquered the world only too completely by its unique stove and rhythmic swings. The craze for jazz is now an international one: Radio programs, theatres, cabaret afmms such as statement films from the late fervor and gayness has speed its influence over the entire world.
The present day jazz was the ragtime of yesterday. Ragtime, which is a quarter of a century old at least came from the "cake-walks" and "coon" songs of Negroes. Ragtime of that period has undergone the refining process to form what is terminating in what one might term, "the white man's jazz of today."
Jazz is now primitively seen through eyes of culture and expressed through the creative abilities of modern composers as Irving Berlin, known worldwide for his famous songs; George Gerahwin, for his "Rhapsody in Blue"; Jazz composers and pianists and his operets; "Lady Be Good."
Of course, we are aware of the serdid, commercial type of jazz used in the ballroom and cabaret, but we are least concerned with this type. Many of these jazz players cannot read a note of music. They are simply a rhythm mad. Not musical authorities claim, but the jazz style which has a negative and a positive value in music. The subject is indeed a complex one.
Paul Whitman, the well-known jazz king, is about to embark on a new American concert tour beginning Oct. 7 at Carnegie Hall. He is now experimenting with the artistic side of jazz as a basis of composition.
Already the jazz influence has spread over the continent of Europe and is continually civilizing itself. Europe says that jazz is our one original and important contribution to music.
The writer pauses here to remind her readers that they must not forget the unifying effort of the late jazz luminaries of Europe, who was a vital factor in the spreading of the influence of jazz over the civilized world.
It would appear that the instinctive feeling for musical rhythm is truly a characteristic quality of Negroes; it seems to exist in our nature, as an ever-present expression of mind, a contented, care-free frame of experience there are and exceptions to be considered and such a discussion is a lengthy one.
Even in the minds of composers and in our best musical societies, jazz has assumed and is rapidly assuming the dignity of an art. The jazz of yesterday was somewhat different, often vulgar to the high cultural mind. But jazz of today holds a spectacular and highly individual form. Such intricate musical values are also in compositions as Stravinsky's "Piano Bar," Jean Wienner's "Sonata," Miland's "Jazz," Burlingham Bills's "Etude de Jazz" for the piano Ravel's "Five O'Clock." Lastly, we bestow honor on the aristocratic Debussy, who condescended to emulate the syncopated rhythm in his "Vallée Cak-walk," often Vavell's the concert stage. Jazz of the concert has conquered the world only too completely, and the future can only predict whether jazz will continue to hold its charm and freshness in the mind's eye of its jazz crazed disciples.

To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
I attended the jazz opera by H. L. Freeman at Palm Garden and want to say it was indeed something new and artistic.
I was standing near Mr. Freeman when the World reporter asked "Where are the prominent people from Harlem? Where are the members of the Association for the Advancement of Colored People?" I heard a reporter say outside "I guess it's beyond the rest of the jazz bables."
Where were my people? There were fifty whites to one black.
Mr. Freeman has defied the conventional operatic laws, yet in opera produced something new and characteristic of the American Negro.
Mr. Freeman could make money by selling buttring to a white person, and claim to be the first to introduce Negroes in opera, but he refuses for the sake of his race.
Let his race stand behind him.
He has twelve operas to his credit

UNDERTAKERS of the modern age give evidences of unusual alertness and wisdom. It is unreasonable to expect them to be shaken into grief at the notice of every mortality and it is, therefore, wonderfully relieving to be able to call upon them momentarily for advice and assistance when one of your beloved family circle passes away. Immediately after death occurs in your family, a reliable undertaker should be notified and his suggestions followed, as far as possible, for the necessary preparations of the funeral.
In a private house, the shades of the front windows are usually drawn as an indication that the family is in retirement. The women of the family are not seen on the street, unless necessary, the men taking charge of all business matters. The directions for the undertaker should be decided upon by the family, or nearest relative of the deceased, and then some one member is elected to see that they are carried out. Palm leaves tied with ribbon or chiffon are often placed upon the front door of private houses. Some people prefer a spray bouquet of white flowers tied with ribbon.
Press notices of the death should be sent to the newspapers. The conduct of the services should be arranged with the clergyman chosen to officiate, the superintendent to the cemetery consulted (sometimes the request sent to the chosen to act as pallbearers. Sometimes the pallbearers are purely honorary, the undertaker furnishing them. The honor is usually given to intimate family friends or close business associates. The clergyman is entitled to a fee although some of them do not charge the fee. He home funeral. He usually consults the wishes of the family as to the form of the service. Funeral services should be brief, a ritual service preferably. Many people prefer a sermon preached over the dead, even though it is harrowing to the feelings of the mourners. They should be every reasonable effort made to relieve the tension of the occasion, for the sake of the living. Music is used at the discretion of the family. It is usually paid for

Another Correspondent Commends William Pickens for West Indian-American Negro Stand.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
Kindly allow me to congratulate Mr. William Pickens in that, for these many years he has been writing, his most sane and sensible article appeared in your issue of September 19.
Apparently, Mr. Pickens has now realized that the logic of Marcus Garvey has now found its way into his dominant connecness through that ancient method of race prejudice which has been exercised against us by other nations. Mr. Garvey, he has to concede the fact that we are all Negroes regardless of our accidental birthplaces.

through the undertaker, if there is
a charge for it.
At a home funeral it is customary to have the family in some secluded room near the one where the corpse is placed and to have the clergyman stand in the hall between or near the entrance of both rooms, where he may be readily heard by all.
At a church funeral the palebearers sit in the first pews at the left of the center aisle, the family in those to the right.
A funeral held from a chapel is conducted similar to the church funerals.
In sending flowers to a funeral one's card is enclosed. There should be no slightest sense of obligation in the sending of flowers and each piece should represent real sympathy or respect.
Within ten days after a funeral a card of thanks for sympathy should be sent to all who have called upon the family or sent flowers, telegrams or offered their services in any way.

It only remains for other intellectual invertebrates of our race, the so-called leaders, to follow in the fotosteps of Mr. Pickens, who has, thank God, awakened from his mental lethargy and has now found himself a unit of our race, subject to all the ostracisms and persecutions which he is forced to aid and can only be romped through the combined efforts of the race.

Joseph N. Russell Says That Blanche-Watson's Opinion of Chorus Girls is an Unique One.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
After reading the letter of Blanche Watson in your issue of September 26, starting that she was glad that the Southern Americans insulted the chorus girls of "Blackbirds," I wish to say that if she is she may be alone in the opinion because white New Yorkers generally will differ with her, as she voiced its utter disapproval of the singers and the men were themselves disgraced by their own vulgarity.
Perhaps this lady may be affected by sex jealousy, as she, like most of us, are not accustomed to seeing colored girls dance half nude before white people. The lady may be called vulgar was that "downbowl" which is danced by a male person. The lady failed to point this out. From the common conception of the stage today, not any of the other dances would be classed as vulgar. However, these friendly criticisms from our white friends mean us well and it is a good way to learn to understand each other better.
But if a Negro company in the business would succeed, as is "Blackbirds," it must play the game as it is played by everyone, regardless of race. JOSEPH N. RUSSELL, 336 South Eighth Avenue, Mt. Vernon, N. Y., September 30, 1922.

Local Democrats Form Strong Organization of, by, and for Negroes
On Friday evening, September 28, 1938, the new headquarters of the F. Q. Morton Association was opened at 222 West 145th Street. The Club occupies the upper floor of the building at that address and is elaborately decorated and furnished.
Commissioner Ferdinand Q. Morton, a member of the Municipal Civil Service Commission, addressed the group of nearly one hundred representative Negroes.
The address by Mr. Morton was the necessity of colored people registering and enrolling in the Democratic Party in order that Negroes can control the dominant political party in Harlem. Out of approximately three hundred thousand colored people in Harlem, less than one-twelfth of them vote, and hardly one-third of that number are enrolled Democrats.
Mr. Morton said that Judge Olvany decided only recently that no longer should colored people be represented by a leader. The district selection, but instead by a district Leader. This was made despite Judge Olvany's previous decision to continue the policy of his predecessors, Mr. Croker and Mr. Murphy, and recognize the leader selected by our group.
Negroes, however, should support the Democratic ticket despite this drastic decision, because the standard bearer of democracy, Governor Alfred E. Smith, is the candidate of fair play and tolerance, Mr. Morton said. Intolerance, religious and racial hatred are the opponents of Governor Smith and Negroes should ally themselves against them.
This organization is not only political, but civic and its objects and purposes strike at the foundation of our society. The right to vote is one thing, but the right to say who to vote for is another. Only by controlling the political machinery in our community can we do this, and that only by enacting the Democratic Party.
Governor Mary Nurse made a motion to name the organization the F. Q. Morton Association. He approved of the objects and purposes, and urged the support of Gov. Smith by money as well as votes.
Dr. Matthew V. Boutte, Temporary Chairman of the Committee on Organization, in urging the support of the Association, stated that our failure to support our Negro leaders was cause for our failure to get anywhere politically.
Dr. Louis T. Wright suggested the necessity for Negroes wholeheartedly supporting the organization, so that they might demand protection in their community. He said for the past five (5) years the community has been 'deteriorating, and we have no means of correcting the evil. We must exercise our rights intelligently. Enroll as Democrats in large numbers and demand what you want.
Mr. Sol Riley stated that the inexperienced in politics he saw the necessity for an organization such as this for the purpose of taking care of the needs of the community. He said, "Without Negro
Among those present in addition to the above speakers were: Dr. Paul A. Collins, Mr. H. G. Bragg, Dr. H. B. Delany Jr., Mr. Howard Bearden, Dr. Wiley M.

Graves, Mr. Melville Frazier, Dr. Edward Lowry, Mr. Clifford Collwood, Mr. J. F. Hill, Mr. Roger Griffin, Dr. Valentine Thomas, Mr. Loon B. Crutcher.
Several other persons present spoke in approval of the project and urged all Negroes who had their community and the welfare of colored people at heart to join this organization.
The temporary officers elected were: Ferdinand Q. Morton, Temporary Chairman; Chauncey M. Hooper, Temporary Secretary.
tion has caught great numbers of Negroes in Harlem and in Greater New York unprepared to cast their ballots. Small wonder, then, that party heads often find us such a negligible unit that they lose no time in reckoning with us.
The important factor is not that we must "come out" for Hoover or "come out" for Smith, but that we must "come out" and vote. If we do that, we need register no concern about such small matters as "recognition." We would get that, and from both parties.
I feel that should some of the space given over to partisan propaganda be given over to the dissimilation of non-partisan racialism we would be more greatly benefited.
Very sincerely,

A birthyear full of many new and unusual things that will bring eventual gain is shown for October 3. Elderly people and real estate will cause many worries to nearly every one. A good aspect from Mars to Neptune promises to be the chemists of today. This will be a good year for personal effort. Not much help should be expected from others. The birthyear for October 4 will bring some pleasure through social affairs, and yet sudden friendships formed with the opposite sex will bring tragedy and anxiety. Moving about with no satisfaction gained. This year patience and good judgment must be used. The 5th of October holds some favorable mental development, much moving about and sudden changes, financial dissatisfaction and trouble with employment. Less than the birthyear. Those who can avoid extravagance will get ahead.

leadership you can expect no measure of success. White men will not recognize the qualifications and fitness of individuals, but those seeking personal gain will be chosen to represent us." Cooperate with each other, build up a united organization and with that strength you can demand what you need. Attorney Charles E. Toney urged support of the financially and by individual efforts obtain members. Soek to have Negroes enroll as Democrats and on Primary Day go to the polls and elect your leaders. Attorney William F. Andrews said that this organization was the awakening of the Negro to his potential power and strength. We have been in no better position than our Southern brother, he said, because we have not voted intelligently. W. T. R. Richardson, an old Democrat, said Negroes have been serving two masters. Judge Olvany told him he recognized Mr. Morton as leader of the Negro Democratic Leaders. He urged co-operation of all Negroes with this new association and support to its representatives.
Dr. E. P. Roberts in supporting the movement expressed a doubt as to the sincerity of Judge Olvany in making his decision. He believed that a mistake was made and suggested a committee of representative citizens wait on him and urge the continuance of the former policy of Tammany Hall. It is his belief that that request will be granted.
Attorney John William Smith expressed his apprehension of the objects and purposes of the organization. He said, Assemblyman Grossman in speaking of his chances for election expressed a desire not to work too hard among our group this year, because of the fear that too many would join the ranks of the Republicans, and help to defeat our ticket. The desire of District Leaders in Harlem is not to encourage Negroes to vote, but rather to keep them away. He suggested that strenuous efforts be made to get out as many as possible to register so as to exercise the right to vote. Make out membership large and we can defeat them on Primary Day, he said.
Mr. Charles Washington thought Judge Olvany's decision would that could happen, because now we can result in our plight. His arbitrary ruling has forced us to self-defense.

Mr. John H. McNell spoke at length on the necessity of action along the line of the meeting. He stated that he was unequivocally in favor of Negro leadership. That the Negro could achieve his civic and political rights only in the Democratic Party, and he urged all Negroes to register and vote as Negroes in self-interest and defense.

U. S. Navy's Only Negro Bandmaster Again on Visit to This Country
Adams Arrived by Kittery From Station in Virgin Islands and Is Spending Time in Jamaica—Guest Conductor of Wanamaker Band in Philadelphia
When the United States steamship Kittery was warped into her dock at Norfolk, Va., a few days ago, a snappy young man wearing the chevrons on his arm as a chief petty officer and a bandmaster in the United States Navy stepped from the gangway and after a day in the Southern city took train for the nation's capital, where he was headed on official business connected with the splendid work which he has been doing for the past twelve years.
It was Bandmaster Alton A. Adams, who four years ago led the white-clad, clean-cut array of young Negro Navy musicians up Seventh avenue midst the plaudits of onlookers of his race, who did not hostile to show the pride they felt in the bandmaster and his men as they marched with military precision to one of the open air parks where they gave a concert attended by a host of music lovers.
A few weeks later Bandmaster Adams appeared as guest conductor with Edwin Franko Goldman and the band, who were to form one of the largest number of people, both white and colored, that ever appeared on the Mall in Copenhagen. The band then being sung by Conductor Goldman under the auspices of the Guggenheim family at the time Hylan was in office and others.
The band under Mr. Adams, being the only one of its kind in the United States Navy, naturally attracted a great deal of attention and requests came from colored and white organizations all over the country for the outfit to appear. In concert in the leading cities, but Navy regulations prevented acceptance by the bandmaster. However, after he had appeared in concert without admission in the various parks in Boston, Philadelphia, Washington, New York and Virginia, the Navy Department, through the intercession of Rear Admiral Plunkett, then Commandant at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and the Honorable Theodore Roosevelt, then Assistant Secretary of the Navy, got permission for the band to appear at the Dunbar Theatre in Philadelphia for a benefit in behalf of the Douglass Hospital.
The occasion was a memorable one and Judge Henry, who acted as master of ceremonies, took occasion to praise the bandmaster and his son, the bandmaster Jude, the time that Bandmaster Adams remained in Washington on his record visit he was the man of Rev. Daniel E. Wiseman, one of the most influential national's capital and one of the trustees of the School of Theology at Howard University.

Arkansas Supreme Court Reverses Boys' Conviction
Telegraphic advises from Scalp A. Jones, in Little Rock, to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, state that the Supreme Court of the State of Arkansas has reversed the conviction of Robert Doll and Grady Swain, two boys 14 and 18 years old respectively, convicted of murder and sentenced to death after having been barronically tortured to compel them to "confess" their guilt.
The case of the boys enlisted the sympathy and aid of two white attorneys, W. J. Lander and G. B. Scott, who were given financial aid by the N. A. A. C. P. Convicted that the boys were innocent of the crime charged and that they had been treated with inhumane cruelty by Arkansas sheriffs and prison guards, the authorities carried their cases on appeal, before the highest tribunal in the State, which has now convicted the convictions.

Postal Clerks Rated by Color
Washington Government Employees Protest Discrimination
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 1. Charges of discrimination on account of color in annual efficiency ratings to prevent promotions are being made by a number of Negro clerks in the city post office. The clerks claim that they were given ratings below 95 per cent, the requirement for eligibility for promotion to the grade of special clerk if they an increase of $200 a year in pay. The clerks are 90 per cent of the Negro clerks were given ratings of less than 95 per cent. Special clerk is the highest grade a Negro employee may reach in the local post office, these clerks claim. For a white clerk, they say, promotion to the grade of special clerk simply means a stepping stone to higher grades, such as foreman and perhaps superintendent of mails.
Assistant Postmaster W. Hunter Haycock denied these charges Tuesday. He explained that under the postal rules all employees have to be rated annually. The city post office officials found out as a general thing, he said, that all employees, white and colored, have been rated a little too high and there was a readjustment of ratings without regard to color.
He stated that there was a reduction in the ratings of both white and colored employees. "If the colored clerks," he said, "will inquire among the whites, they will find out that a number of them had the same occupation."
According to a memorandum furnished Postmaster W. M. Mooney by the appointment clerk, there is a total of 178 special clerks. Forty-two of them are colored. This is 23.5 per cent of the total. There is a total of 636 clerks in the automatic grades. Ninety-eight, or 15.5 per cent, are colored.

Just eight years ago
He left behind him
Earth's empty pleasures,

Lie before him
And he entered in.
Lovingly your father,

News
By Scout Edward Lewis
Quick-Action.
There are two members of Scouting that deserve special notice. They are Scout Elmore Stepney, 18, of Troop 776, and Scoutmaster Norman Cobbs of the same troop.
In a recent fire, Scout Stepney's quick反应 prevented possible tragedy when she saved children. He then went back and tried to stamp out the flames. He was aided by Scoutmaster Cobbs. This is Scout Elmore's second rescue. In the fire he saved a woman from a fire on Seventh avenue. Who says that we have no Scout heroes in Harlem?
Good Helpers.
The Boy Scout editor wants to commend Scouts from many of the troops in Harlem to help in keeping back a crowd morning in front of The Amsterdam News office where "Farina" of Hal Roach's "Ours Gang" was welcomed. The policemen co-operated with the policemen and co-operated manfully in pushing back a crowd of 000 or more colored children. Another good mark for Harlem Scouts.
Relief Committee
Changes Its Name
At a special meeting last week of the Florida Relief Committee, headed by Augusta Savage, sculptures, 254 West 137th street, and Mary M. Young of the Unique Colony Circle, the West 138th street, the name of the committee was changed to the International Compromise Relief Committee.

The following names have been added to the committee: Beasley Rearden, Helen Moore, Beasley Charles W. Helen, Sadie Holley, Irine Savage, Ruth Ford, Nellie Occomy Becker, Edith Delph, Nannett Taylor, Eugenia Smith, Mrs. Joseph D.

Cutting Off Your Nose
Cutting Off Your Nose
LAST WEEK'S Afro-American published an article by Commissioner Ferdinand J. Morton, entitled "Why I'm for Smith." Some hardboiled souls might reply that Mr. Morton is for Smith because he holds a high-salaried job under Tammany Hall. But apart from that, Mr. Morton makes about as good an argument for the Negro's voting for Smith as can be made, which is saying very little.
Mr. Morton says that as long as the Negro's vote is the property of one political party he cannot use it to his advantage; that he can use it to his advantage only if he divides it; that he should prove his political independence by dividing his vote, thus earning the respect of the nation and placing himself in a position of strategic advantage politically. All these things will be accomplished, Mr. Morton says, if the Negro's give their vote to Governor Smith.
Negroes have THE AIMS MENTIONED BY MR. MORTON are sound enough and all Negroes can agree upon them. But how can those aims be accomplished by the Negro's voting for Governor Smith? What strategic advantage can be gained by fighting for an enemy? And the National Democratic party, governed as it is by Negro-hating Southerners, is certainly the Negro's enemy.
IT IS EASY TO TALK of dividing the vote, but what encouragement have the Democrats given the Negro to divide it? Whenever a group of Negroes have offered their allegiance to the National Democratic party it has been contemptuously spurned. The best chance the Democrats ever had to win the Negro vote was in 1912, when Woodrow Wilson first ran for President. The Negroes were disgusted with Taft and angry with Roosevelt. Woodrow Wilson came along preaching the new freedom, and thousands of progressive Negroes believed him and voted for him. This number would have been doubled in the next election if the Negroes had received halfway decent treatment. But Wilson not only scorned them; he told them he could be elected without them.
WHAT ENCOURAGEMENT has the Negro from the Democrats in the present campaign? First of all, they nominated a man who in his four terms as Governor had never appointed a Negro to office, who had three times vetoed a bill, ostensibly for the reason that it might make it possible to elect a Negro magistrate to the Municipal Court bench, and who at no time in his public life has ever uttered a word of friendliness or encouragement to the Negro. All through the present campaign the Democratic National Committee has nervously denied that it had any Negro connections and has done its best to assure the South that if Smith should be elected Negroes would not be appointed to anything higher than menial positions.
THEORETICALLY, it might seem a good thing for the Negroes to rebuke Republican negligence by helping to elect a Democrat, but practically it would be like cutting off the nose to spite the face.
Fifty Millionaires!
DR. SIMON P. W. DREW is the nominee of the Interracial Lincoln-Republican party for Vice-President. Speaking in Washington he said that though there are fifty Negro millionaires in this country, there is no Negro daily paper or department store, and that none of the wealthy Negroes had contributed any money for the campaign of Negro candidates for office.
DR. DREW'S audience probably forgot everything in his speech except his statement that there are fifty Negro millionaires in this country. One feels like asking him who those millionaires are. In these days every Negro worth a hundred thousand dollars is rated by the more imaginative minds of the race as a millionaire. Some of them have their friends circulate the rumor and others, when asked about it, deny it in such a way as to give the impression that they really are millionaires, but don't want it generally known.
BESIDES, Dr. Drew perhaps feels hurt because none of the "millionaires" has contributed money to Dr. Drew's campaign. If they spent their money like that they would not long be millionaires—or thousandaires.
Pure Cracker Deviltry
A CURIOUS ATTITUDE was expressed in the letter of Mise Blanche Watson in last week's issue of The Amsterdam News. Writing of the disturbance created by a group of Southerners at a performance of "Blackbirds," she said that the girls brought it on themselves by their vulgar dancing.
MISS WATSON'S LETTER is all the more surprising because she is known as a genuine friend of the Negro. She should know that a colored girl does not have to be vulgar to be insulted by a Southern white man. Has she been told why colored theatrical companies no longer tour the South? It is because of the Southern white men who invade the cars with drawn revolvers to intimidate the men and assault the girls. The Southerners who tried to break up the "Blackbirds" performance would have insulted Florence Mills, Paul Robeson or any Negro performer.
THE DANCING IN "BLACKBIRDS," moreover, has hardly a single vulgar suggestion. In nudity and vulgarity the "Blackbirds" chorus is putitanal compared to the performance of some of the white choruses. The Southerners' behavior at the "Blackbirds" show was due to pure "cracker" prejudice and devility, and nothing else.
Race, Religion and Rum
NORMAN THOMAS, the Socialist candidate for the presidency, has said that race, religion and rum will constitute the chief issues of the campaign. The genuine advocates of prohibition regret this unholy alliance. Race intolerance and religious bigotry are' obvious vices, while temperance is universally extolled as a virtue.
These evil issues are embodied in the Ku Klux Klan. The basic clauses in the creed of this un-American order is that a 100 per cent American must be all white and all Protestant. The Negro American meets the full measure of the second requirement, but cannot possibly qualify under the first. His only salvation, therefore, is to change the definition, since he can never answer to its terms.
Strong transpositions take place in political history. The Ku Klux Klan of the elder day was pledged to the undoing of the works of the Republican party. In turn, the Grand Old Party was committed to its utter destruction of the achievement in the days of reconstruction. Just as the original Ku Klux Klan arose after the Civil War for the express purpose of keeping the Negro in his putative place, so its rejuvenescence after the World War had precisely the same objective. In addition to its main feature, however, ofook of the oppressive绑ordinating non-Protestants and foreigners. This extension of the brackets so as to include the Catholic so
Sex: As Europe Accepts It
(Continued From Last Week) WOMAN in America occu-
WOMAN in America occupies a much higher position than in Europe. This is probably not all due to what is claimed as the higher respect for womanhood in America. To my thinking all the talk one hears in America about the sacredness of womanhood, the purity of womanhood and the like, is sheer bunk and so much hypocrisy. Women are neither better nor worse than men. For every good quality that can be named in one sex, another can be named for the opposite sex. Women occupy a higher position in America simply because they are fewer. It is the old law of supply and demand, for whatever is scarce is dear and what is plentiful is cheap.
It is no wonder then that the European regards the American male as a sort of emasculated creature from the manner in which the American gives attention to the female. On the other hand, the European woman thinks the American woman almost perfectly beheaded of his ain'tiveness to women. The European woman has to scramble for the male; she is thankful for small mercles.

the "bankers" who profit most by the game. Arrest and convict the "bankers" and there won't be any players and collectors to arrest. Until this is done it would be infinitely better to stop the farcical crusades against the game.
BUT WHY ISN'T THIS DONE? Why are the big fish permitted to slip through the net while the little fish are caught and ground to death by the wheels of the law? Why, we ask, must the player and collector of "numbers" be called upon to pay the price in fines and prison sentences while the "bankers" roll in wealth and pose as capitalists and race leaders?
INCIDENTALLY, this editorial answers the question often asked, "Why doesn't The Amsterdam News conduct a crusade against the 'numbers'?" We refuse to be a party to the unjust enforcement of a law which oppresses the ignorant man and woman, and the widow with children who grabs at every straw of hope to increase her income without realizing that she is breaking the law, and exacts no penalty whatever from those who deliberately and knowingly break the law.
Good for Rev. Harten!
Good for Rev. Harten!
THE REV. THOMAS S. HARTEN of Brooklyn deserves admiration for the successful fight which he carried on in behalf of a defenseless woman. This woman was assaulted in July by John Turkel, a white man, because of an argument between her and his mother, who had employed her. She had no money and it looked as if she would not be able to obtain redress, when the Rev. Mr. Harten took up her fight. It was won when the judge compelled Turkel to apologize to her in open court and pay her $25.
MANY WHITE PEOPLE think that a poor Negro is a defenseless creature, to be treated any way they please. Men like Rev. Harten are needed to give them a lesson.

Governor Smith, in his 'Omaha address, boldly as is his wont, denounced the Klu Klux Klan in terms as clear and unmistakable as the Smith language usually uses. His leadership has escaped the prudent lips of President Coolidge. Candidate Hoover, Manager Work, or any other ruler in the ranks of Republicandom. The hoped-for reinforcement in the South comes from the Klu Klux Klan's whiteness" are but another name for the Klansmen, translated in political terms.
The Republican party becomes the acquiescent beneficiary of the evil machinations of the most insidious order that has ever been permitted to raise its head in America. The question naturally arises, "What will Mr. Hoover do when he succeeds to the Presidency with such a heavy handicap in his job that the just demands of the Negro and satisfy the Ku Klux Klan at the same time? Their claims are antithetic. Candor compels frank admiration of Secretary Work, who can work his black wheel horses and "lily" steeds in the same harms.
Prof John R. Hawkins and Senator Simmons who, by waving the red shirt of white supremacy, drove the Negro Republicans out of North Carolina, are now both fighting for the man of choice. Though Senator Simmons has not expressed repentance nor Mr. Hawkins a change of heart. Surely, politics make strange bed follows. Can this fellowship survive the elections? We must rely upon the political genius of Mr. Hoover to have the Negro Republican can stand the strain of this campaign, it will certainly endure forever.
ly, hangs on to her man. Adultery in Europe is just as plentiful as in America, but the European woman views it with a more lentil eye. The Latin usually has a wife and a mistress, just as the average Southern white has a white wife and a colored sweetheart. In speaking of American women, I include colored ones. The nearest American approach to the attitude of the European woman is the darker Negro woman, who because of the American mania to be whiter and still whiter is last in the running; the lighter colored women, sought by both whites and blacks, speaking, about as spoiled creatures as are to be found anywhere on the planet.
Indeed, one may say the planner and older European women are really "the black women" of Europe. Think of its millions and millions of women with no prospect of finding an anchored male, or indeed, even a floating hungrier they get for love. The English old maid is as fixed a type as the London Cockney, Manpassant's "Miss Harrett" reveals perfectly the type of the woman, English or otherwise, unable to find a man. Of course, I mean the normal type, for a pea-girl old maid from delirious choice. White womanhood is worshiped in America, but it is a drug on the market in Europe, particularly in Southern Europe. Another thing that surprises the American tourist is the vast number of Europe done by women all over Europe, chiefly in Italy and Germany.
As may be imagined in a land where employment is scarce and women are so plentiful, prostitution thrives. It thrives openly, in the streets, and in the houses and "daughters of joy" may be seen in large numbers any night in the neighborhood of Regent street and Piccadilly, and are just as plentiful as in Montmartre or Berlin or Vienna. Solitizing it is not easy, but there are spots in London where the women solicit openly, for the English "bobby" is not so incoercible as we in America have been led to believe.
Because the English prostitute cannot solicit openly as the German prostitute, she has many ruses for attacking clients, one of which is to cast most appealing glances toward the prospective client, or to walk holdly up to him, take him by his arm to him, he is a relative or old friend.
Prostitution seems to be one of the products of civilization, trace it as far back as we will. In primitive Africa and similar com- munity man purchases his wife, it is the man who African woman sells herself to all com- mers as does her civilized sister in the white man's towns on the coast. Some one, Shaw, I think, called prostitution the old profession in the world, it probably existed in the nature of most women and will remain that way until wealth is more evenly divided between the sexes, or women cause needing finery, or civilization ceases the production of the mentally deficient, and speaking of prostitutes, one must not forget the male prostitute, which also thrives in Eu-
LETTERS
As things now look, Mr. Hoover will be triumphant by a majority whose margin will be beyond the capacity of the Negro vote to affect. Biogryst is hard to beat. You may as well go reason with the wolf why he has made the ewe bleat for the lamb as try to argue with race hatred and religious biogryst. That is nothing but a wave of hysteria but let it wear itself out. Like all other fanatical movements, it has its own length. The Billy Sunday psychology is short-lived. The lynching of Negroes, the persecution of the Catholies, the same fanaticism of bigot, are but transient phases of the disordered spirit. The wave is now in the ascendance. The Negro election, but election returns do not affect fundamental principles.
When Mr. Hoover wins, his hardest task will be to disentangle prohibition from the ugly race and religious issues with which it is involved. He will have to have a much more difficult task than Mr. Cochise had. The cause of temperance is being murdered by the murderous company it is allowed to keep.
The Demon Rum must be destroyed. The salvation of the nation depends upon it. In a double sense the salvation of the Negro depends upon it. The Negro depends upon violence, destruction of oppression and religious bigotry. Negroes who persist in supporting Mr. Hoover—and many will—will need to do with a split mind. Self-respect compels us to resent racial hatred and religious bigotry. At the same time, enlightened self-interest requires us to support prohibition. ForGET will not hold us accountable, and endures which beset the Grand Old Party in the present campaign in the black man's eyes. Mr. Hoover is prohibition's best hope.
rope and America as well. Among the principal clients of the male prostitutes in European tourist centers are the rich American women with husbands at home. There are regular houses with male inmates to which these women go and meet their husbands, who should be doubled, I will quote from a very remarkable new book written by Maryse Chosy, who spent a month among the prostitutes and wrote down her impressions, with a careful description of one of these houses.
"Mrs. Knox." writes Maryse Chosy in the chapter entitled "Is an American woman high in color and in shoe heels. She is the wife of a Congressman, and has the air of being very correct. Her husband in an unnatural way she adds all the cocktails she
Having won the confidence of Mrs. Knox, Marya Choley is told of her friend, the will "be discreet and tell no one." "There," explains Mrs. Knox, "is a very good house in the city, a good house of men for women. Nona of your vulgar gigolos. Oh no, gentlemen. For the most part Russian princes. The price commences at $8.00. For the most part dents. Russian princes are dearer. (Poor Russian princes, what crimes are committed in their names?) Marya Knox replies that $8.00 should accept nothing less than an English lord or a French duke. Mrs. Knox replies very seriously; "Oh I do not think you'll find any of the things." Both start for the house.
"We stop before a cozy house hidden by a clean, geometrical, well-kitted garden. It could be the home of an artist and a gallery of ancestors. It could be the retreat of a poet, or of a middle-class couple with a large family. Inside is an appearance of great luxurious comfort, the soap, the American atmosphere.
"An influence of decorative art spreads over the furniture. A dame welcomes us with a worldly smile to an exhibition of paintings which sound like a reception at the American Embassy. I hear only Prince X— Duke X— But among those princes, dukes, counts and what-nots the writer recognizes two pimps she had met at another place. Mrs. Knox whispers in her car, pointing to the men: "Choose, I am very courteous; after you, dear friend." I am, after you dear," insists Mrs. Knox.
Maryse Cholly finally selects one who calls himself Prince Ludmirek-Kossattoff, and, taking him aside, asks him a closer cross-examination where he admits that himself, like the rest, are plebeian born, brought there to fool these stupid women. "Stuck in the automobile Mrs. Knox bows his head," he told me I was very pretty today! (Mrs. Knox is not very pretty.)*
One thing I do hope, after what I have seen and heard of the conduct of white American men and women in Europe, that I will be in an audience some day and hear an intimate speaking of the immorality ago the head of the Court publishing firm of Chicago offered me of her own will enough money to publish one of my books, but after she had read in two of them what I had said of the immorality of white people she withdrew her offer in such great indignation that I cannot help thinking what might have happened to her had been armed with the information then was speaking mainly of the immorality I had seen among white people on Pullman cars.

My Impression of Late Dr. Rawlins
due the service rendered by Dr. I feel that as a first article no could be chosen than my im as the writer of "Keeping Fit." with which he did everything else which he made these weekly first one to write under the caped at a time when The Amster- out."
IN ATTEMPTING to continue the service rendered by Dr. Rawlins in this column, I feel that as a first article no more appropriate subject could be chosen than my impressions of the man Rawlins as the writer of "Keeping Fit." The zeal and eagerness with which he made these weekly contributions. He was the first one to write under the caption "Keeping Fit." He started at a time when The Amsterdam News was just "pushing out."
Dr. Rawlins put into his articles, from time to time, just such material that would hold the interest of the readers and impart the necessary information desired. The popularity and success of articles which had to be, if they were to keep pace with the growing quality, circulation and influence of the publication.
Dr. Rawlins was a very busy man, and I wondered how he found time to write, but he loved the challenge which he had to deal with of enthusiasm. I often felt that the stimulating influence which helped him to accomplish so much was not that of personal aggrandizement; it was the fact that he would make into the surrounding country, and from the hosts of lowly people with whom he worked and lived. The things he wrote, though they may be of a highly scientific nature, were always written so that a child understand them. He never attempted to write in order to demonstrate how much he knew, or to show any partiality among the members of the professional group. It was his purpose to sell good health to Harlem through the medium of hygiene and his follow-up practitioners. He had great faith in the abilities of his people, and in particular the Negro physician.
I sincerely trust that the "Keeping Fit" column will continue to hold the interest of its readers, for the intelligence of any community bears a definite relationship with the manner it co-operates and supports its health agencies. These agencies all over the world are making gigantic efforts to stamp out the disease. It is with this object in mind that this column is dedicated. I shall all in my power to make these simple and instructive, and by doing perpetuate in our midst the great spirit of the biggest little man I ever knew.
Know New York State
The making of pottery in New York State goes back to 1657, in which year one Dirck Clasen, a burguer of New Amsterdam, was listed as the first "pot baker." New York State is second only to California in number of privately owned airplanes. California leads the states with 639 such planes. New York has 587, Illinois and Michigan come next in order. The richest turf prize ever run for was the 1928 Futurity, decided at Belmont Park, N. Y., on September 15, 1928. Its value was $124,300, more than double that of the richest English Derby. The only New York State delegate to sign the Constitution of the United States on September 17, 1777, was Alexander Hamilton, and without him the constitution would not have been ratified by New York.
New York State institutions own
36,873 acres, of which 11,970 are
tillable, and the value of these
institutional farms is $3,476,000.
They yield products worth about
$1,500,000 a year.
The Port of New York has a
waterfront of 771 miles, of which
573 miles are in New York and 193

THE POETS' CORNER
Poems submitted for publication. "The Poet's Corner" will not be reprinted unless accompanied with a self-addressed and stamped envelope.
THE labor pain,
A mother's sigh,
An anguished hush,
A gurgling cry.
A little food,
A little sleep;
A little joy,
Much time to weep.
A lot of work
A little pay;
And many hopes
That flit away.
And most our plans.
Though just begun.
Find Time too short;
Are left undone.
A little thought:
For bye gone years:
A little prayer
For both appears.
A little tired
Playing the game;
A weary sigh
And sleep again.
SALEM TUTT WHITNEY.

Dr. Rawlins put into his articles, from time to time, just such material that would hold the interest of the readers and impart the necessary information desired. The popularity and sense of apprehension had to be, if they were to keep pace with the growing quality, circulation and influence of the publication.
Dr. Rawlins was a very busy man, and I wondered how he found time to write, but he loved to do it and did it with a great deal of effort. It often felt that the stimulating Inquiry helped him to accomplish so much was not that of personal aggrandement; it was the fact that he was able to help thousands, not only through personal contact but through the medium of the newspaper. He felt keenly the health hazards of the group; he touched the group's phase of social and economic life, he regarded these as the chief factors in the Negro health problem.
His source of information was abundant, for he had not only the best periodicals and latest meditations, but he found philosophy, but of which he wrote and talked, among his friends and associates, through the too few short trips he Ababa (Abyssinia), made public by the Department of Commerce.
For centuries pack animals have transferred merchandise, the mule from time immemorial has been the customary mode of travel, but enthusiasm for the automobile has already grown to the point where thousands of cars would be in operation if adequate roads were available. Prince Regent, a man with modern and advanced tendencies, has set the example by owning and using several automobiles. Lately the Empress, long an ultra-conservative in the matter of transportation, has been riding in a magnificent motor car, while lesser royalty and chiefs are rapidly being converted to automobiles, and the country accurately stated, therefore, that Ethiopia is disposed to buy all cars that can be used.
Political Questions
Q.-Where does Herbert Hoover vote?
A.-The Hoovers maintain their permanent home at Palo Alto, Cal., and there they must go to cast their ballots.
Q.-Where has Hoover had a Western President?
A.-Illinois is the most Western State to send a citizen to the White House. Lincoln was a resident of Illinois when elected, and Grant once lived in the State. Excepting Bryan and Hoover, no man residing west of the Mississippi River has ever been nominated. Browder is both a partner of the two leading parties.
Q.-Has the President the power to modify the Volstead Act?
A.-The President has no power to make changes in any law. He may recommend laws, or modification of laws; he may passed by Congress. But he has no power over existing legislation other than its administration.
