HOOVER SWEEPS IN ALL REPUBLICAN STATE CANDIDATES
Strangle-Hold Held by Governor Smith Is Broken—Victory Surprise Even to Republicans.
Nct only did Herbert Hoover succeed in winning New York State's forty-five electoral votes, but he also wrested the entire State Government from the Democratic party—quite a feat when it is considered that with the exception of the two-year term served by Governor Miller, Governor Smith has had a stranglehold on the State for the past ten years.
A Republican victory in the State was more than even the most optimistic Republicans expected.
Practically complete returns from the 8,267 districts in the State indicate that Albert Ottinger has defeated Franklin D. Roosevelt in the race for Governor, Charles C. Lockwood, Republican, defeated Herbert H. Lehman, Democratic candidate for the Lieutenant-Governor; Harry B. Crowley, Republican, defeated Morris Tremaine, Democrat, as Comptroller; Hamilton Ward, Republican, defeated Albert Conway, Decocrat, as Attorney General: Alanson B. Houghton, Republican, defeated Royal S. Copeland, Democrat, as United States Senator.

Harlem Elects 3 G. O.P. to Assembly
Horace W. Palmer Defeats Democrat for State Senate.
All candidates on the Republican ticket polled a heavy vote in the Negro histrids of Harlem and succeeded in re-electing Abraham Grentham in the Nineteenth. John Remer in the Twenty-first and Oscar J. Smith in the Twenty-second.
In addition to electing the four Assemblymen, Horace W. Palmer, Republican, defeated A. Spencer Field, the present Democratic state senator in the Twentieth District.
E. A. Johnson, candidate for Congress, made a brilliant run in the Twenty-first Congressional District, but early this morning his election was still in doubt. The vote then stood as follows: Weller, 26,321; Johnson, 22,313.
The Vote in the 13th A. D.
Full returns from the Fourteenth through the Nineteenth Election Districts of the Thirteenth Assembly District, showed the following results in the votes cast for the President and Governor: Hoover, 9,053; Smith, 11,653; Roosevelt, 12,536; Ottinger, 8,361.

AL SMITH MAKES POOR RUN EVEN IN NEW YORK CITY
AL SMITH MAKES POOR RUN EVEN IN NEW YORK CITY
Franklin D. Roosevelt and His "Happy Warrior" Declined to Comment When Told Hoover's Election Was Conceded.
Franklin D. Roosevelt's "happy warrior," Governor Alfred E. Smith, will have to do battle for the next four years before he can come within striking distance of the White House. The war of 1928 is over, and from the returns already in Herbert Heaver, the Republican candidate, has decisively won the highest office at the disposal of the country.
And the man who has just gone down in defeat may be the leading contender of the Democratic party four years hence; for to become President of the United States has been his one obsession for the past six years, at least, and can easily continue another four years.
It is doubtful, though, if Alfred E. Smith will ever be President. The campaign has proven conclusively that he is not of presidential timber.
Thousands now hold, and thousands will continue to hold, that Smith would have been elected if it were not for the fact that he is a Catholic, but it is doubtful if he would have been elected, no matter what his religious faith. Even as a Republican candidate it is doubtful if he would have been elected President.
Alfred E. Smith has defeated Alfred E. Smith, and the voters have given their O. K. His four administrations as Governor of New York, looked upon as successful largely because of his knowledge of mob psychology, went to his head and he thought he could hypnotize the whole United States. East Side, West Side, all around New York City, is still his strongest fort, but not even here did he poll the vote he expected to get.
Thousands of citizens voted against Smith for no other reason than because he is a Catholic, and thousands more voted for him because he is a Catholic—there are 20,000,000 (?) of the latter in the United States—and it would be hardly fair for him to say that his religion defeated him.
Thousands voted for him because he is a Wet, and thousands more voted against him for the same reason, so his stand on the prohibition issue did not defeat him.
SMITH INFORMED OF DEFEAT.
Governor Smith arrived at Democratic State headquarters after a brief visit to Tammany headquarters tonight and declined to comment on the election returns received to 10:30 p. m.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Democratic nominee for Governor, also was silent. No statement was forthcoming even when they were informed that the New York World, which had backed Smith's candidacy, had conceded the election of Herbert Hoover.
Only 400 persons gathered in the Seventy-first Regiment Armory, occupied by Tammany, to greet Smith and Roosevelt. The lack of enthusiasm was so noticeable that old timers said they could not recall when such apathy was displayed at Tammany headquarters.

It was expected that the Greater City would vote 5 to 1 in favor of Gov. Smith, but at 10 o'clock last night the Democratic candidate was having a hard time holding a lead of 3 to 1. At the same hour the vote in New York State was as follows: Smith, 1,765,171; Hoover, 1,770,972; with strongly Republican up-state districts not yet heard from.
It is apparent that thousands of voters in the metropolitan area

deemed it expedient "to talk" Smith but actually voted for Hoover. "Solid Soil" No Longer Solid.
When this was written complete returns from the "Solid South" had not been received, but from returns in hand the South is no longer "solid." In 34 precincts out of 40 in Richmond, Va., former capital of the Confederacy, the votes were tied at 7,064, with Hoover actually leading in the State with $8,950 votes to Smith's 79,083. In Carolina 550 precincts out of North Carolina 550 precincts out of 1,744 gave Hoover 1,455. Smith 117,167, and Anderson 115,165 in Mississippi, as solidly Democratic as it was possible for any State to be, Hoover received 1,122 votes against Smith's 6,129.
Electorial Vote May Exceed 400
Hoover will become the thirty-first President of the United States. At the same time United Press returns from all parts of the nation recorded a landslide which already had made Hoover certain of 386 electoral votes, four more than Calvin (Coolidge received in his 1924 landslide).
There was every indication that Hoover's total would go above 400 and it may be the greatest victory in American political history. John J. Raskob, Democratic National Chairman, issued the following statement to the United Press:
"The cardinal of the American people has been rendered; and in accordance with Democratic principles we cheerfully accept the will of the majority and shall take our place in the ranks of the majority of American citizenz who desire that future welfare of our country.
"JOHN J. RASKOB."

Bruscaaux, investigator for the grand jury, Johnson is said to have taken a check for $100 to blind the burglar.

Descendants of John Quincy Adams Lose Suit to Recover Burial Ground
Proceeds of Land Bought for $5,000, Now Worth $275,000, to Be Distributed Among Heirs at Law of Negro Association
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 5.—Justice Peyton Gordon in Equity Court No. 2 last Monday dismissed the suit of six descendants of John Quincy Adams, sixth President of the United States, seeking to establish title by reversion to the burial grounds of the Colored Union Benevolent Association. An appeal was noted.
The suit was brought by John Quincy Adams Johnson, Eben S. Doolittle, William C. J. Doolittle, Charles A. Doolittle, Erskine Clement Jr. and Louise C. Clement against the Colored Union Benevolent Association, George Emmons, Harry A. Clarke and Whitefield McKinlay, trustees.
Sale! UPHOLSTERY AND SLIP COVERS
The plaintiffs claimed that the land was conveyed in trust for the benefit of the Colored Union Benefit Association for the sole purpose of carrying out its object of providing a cemetery. When this object of the association was terminated, they contended, the land reverted to the heirs-at-law or next of kin of Mary Louisa Adams, granddaughter of John Quincy Adams and grandmother of the plaintiffs.
Justice Gordon found, however, that there was no restriction in the deed conveying the property to the association and dismissed the suit. The daughter of Quincy Adams died February 23, 1834, leaving property in trust to his granddaughter, Mary Louisa Adams, the grandmother of the plaintiffs.
On April 1, 1870, Charles F. Adams, the trustee of the estate of John Quincy Adams, conveyed the property to Gurdion Snowden, Henry Logan, Joseph Shorter, Anthony Hickman and Hampton Martin, a member of the Senate as trustees for the Union Benevolent Association of the District of Columbia, colored.
The Colored Union Benevolent Association was incorporated by an act of Congress March 3, 1865. It was the same association referred to in the deed of trust from Charles Adams. Its objects were to care for the sick and bury the dead of its membership.
The land was used as a cemetery until 1889. The Health Department directed that it be used no longer as a burial ground.
President Harding on March 4, 1893, approved an act of Congress to designation. This act named as trustees Mr. Emmons, Mr. Carke and Mr. McKinley.
Congress directed the trustees to transfer the bodies buried in the cemetery of the Colored Union Emevolent Association to some other public cemetery to be reburied at the expense of the association. The trustees were also directed to sell and convey the land that had been used for burial purposes and to distribute the proceeds of the sale to the heirs-at-law and next of kin of its owners, as shown by the records of the association. The plaintiffs learned of the dissolution of the corporation and filed suit January 11 last, to establish the corporation. The land was originally purchased by the association in 1870 for the sum of $5,000. It is estimated now to be worth $25,000.
In 1893 sixteen of the original owners were still listed as members of the association. They were: Sandy Alexander, Henry Brooks, Andrew Carroll, Isaac H. Browne, Billy Carroll, Dorsey, James F. Herbert, Anthony Hickman, Gillis Key, James H. Lewis, Henry Logan, Hampleton Martin, Charles H. Shorter, Joseph Shorter, Charles Wilson, and James Wright. About fifty descendants of these original owners are located. The still share in the distribution of the proceeds after the sale of the land by the trustees.

Charged with being an escaped prisoner from the New Hanover County stockade, North Carolina, Canada McDowell, 48, 334 St. Nicholas avenue, was turned over to Sheriff George C. Jackson of Wilmington, N. C., who took him back to the prison from which he is alleged to have escaped.
McDowell was arraigned Monday on a charge of being a fugitive from justice before Magistrate Douras in Harlem Court. When Sheriff Jackson announced he had a warrant of extradition for McDowell, the latter was turned over to his custody.
McDowell was serving a term for perjury in connection with testimony he gave when arrested for violating the Prohibition law when he escaped.
Two Jailed for Stealing 13 Pullman Blankets
Found guilty of stealing the unlucky number of 13 Pullman car blankets in order to "raise a little ready cash." Elzara Overton, 30, 552 Lenox avenue, and Clarence Johns 35, 69 West Ninety-ninth street, were sentenced to the New York County penitentiary by Judge Barrett in Bronx County Court recently. The men were arrested on September 28 by Patrolman Fenn of Traffic D as they were leaving the railroad yards at 1564 street and Park avenue. In their possession was found a queer-looking key which unlocked the Pullman berths from which the blankets were stolen. They would not explain how they got it. Patrolman Fenn told the court that, when he questioned the men about the bundles they were carrying in which he was riding, and Overton said, "O. K., buddy, they're yours. No argument. So long!"
The men walked away and, when Fenn overtook them and placed them under arrest, they expressed surprise. Fenn said, explaining that Fenn "chicago" the police also arrested them "for a little thing like that."

Like Crabs, Negroes Tear Down Their Own Economic Structures in Harlem
Majority Fails to Patronize Own Business Enterprises and Do Not See Wisdom of Supporting White Merchants Who Give Them a Chance

Agricultural and Mineral Re- World — Rulers Claim King Solomon
Nov. 5. — Abyssinia, the ancient and outlet to the sea by means of a piece of land on the Red force was advised October 25 by special attache at Rome. states:
The prejudice of Negroes against and among themselves is amazing. As fast as race leaders start building up the race's economic structure by obtaining some measure of unity and cooperation among them, the Negro himself begins to tear it down or seeks to nullify its effectiveness. To coin a phrase, it might be said that we are too much a race of destructive constructionists.
"Abyssinia's efforts to obtain an outlet to the sea have been rewarded; it has now been announced that Italy will lease to that country for 130 years a piece of land in or near the port of Assab, in Eritrea, on the Red Sea, where a wharf, pier or jetty can be built.
"The exact site of the port is to be determined by a mixed commission. It is expected to be either a site of approximately 6,000 square meters in the town of Assab itself or a site of 30,000 square meters about two miles distant from the city.
"The Abyssinian Government will have complete control of the land so leased not to collect taxes on imports and exports without interference from the Italian authorities."
Abyssinia, or Ethiopia, is a mountainous, volcanic country in northeast Africa. It is bounded on the north by Eritrea (Italian), on the east by British and Italian Somalia, on the south by Kanye, and on the west by the Sudan.
The agricultural and mineral resources of the country are practically undeveloped. Its wealth of water power is unused.
The principal means of communication between Abyssinia and the rest of the world is by means of the Addis Ababa with the port of Djibouti, in French Somalia.
German scientists describe the Abyssinians as a mixed Hamito-Semitic people. Other ethnologists assert that the true Abyssinian type contains no Negro blood whatever and none of the Negro qualities, ethnic origin, and nationality.
The royal family claims descent from King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba.

In Harlem a new condition in biracial employment has come to light. It probably is not a new condition till, but rather an old one making its influence more keenly felt.
When Schottlands Luggage Shop first opened, last May, at 2298 Second avenue, on the corner of 133th street, Mr. Schottland employed a young Negro college student whom he placed in training as a store salesman. Like several other Harlem merchants, Mr. Schottland was not only anxious to give this young man a chance in the African racial community, but believed that his presence in the store would bring in more business.
Instead, it had just the opposite result, Mr. Schottland told me recently.
"Business began to fall off," he said, "because so many colored people who came in to make purchases did not want the yellow colored fellow to wait on them. They insisted, many of them, that I wait on them. Negroes, Negroes, Negroes, would suddenly change their minds when confronted by the colored salesman and walk out. This unfortunate condition compelled me to let the young man go.
"This colored fellow had everything in his favor toward making a fine salesman; he was courteous and refined. I was sorry to get rid of him, as he was working his way through college."
Many hold that the lack of racial unity and co-operation in the root complex which, from the American standpoint at least, began in slavery. Insufficient business training is the second conclusion.
The Negro continues to think white instead of black. Ignorant of his own majestic ancestry and having had the ideas of black inferiority and white superiority instilled into his very life blood for the purpose of unimpeded racial solidarity that he has come some little distance toward racial solidarity at all.
My late grandmother, who raised me, was born a slave, and it took me three years to get her to a point in racial consciousness where she would consent to buy a loaf of bread from a colored grocer. She positively mistrusted the ability of Negro doctors. She was bad at other genres and she belied that white slave masters taught their slaves. So that even the death of the old folks brought only a slight increase, comparatively speaking, in race self-confidence.
the outstanding and more or less isolated instances of racial progress organization, unity and co-operation have heretofore been the exceptions which proved the rule. The excisions are now increasing and putulum is swinging more firmly in the direction of making the exceptions the general rule, wherein there is much to hope for.

Cleanliness Civil
IT MUST be a gruesome experience to attend your own funeral, hear the laudatory phrases generally reserved for the dead, see the trees that will wave over your grave and admire the monument that hereafter will mark the spot where you will be buried.
And yet on Sunday, in spite of the rain. "Smilling Sam" Tichner, white, did all of this. The unveiling of a monument with a sliding crypt and a two-and-a-half-times lifesize bust of him took place in Mount Carmel Cemetery, Cypress Hills, Brooklyn.
This necktie dealer, who has a business at Thirteenth street and Broadway, forty-six years ago organized a group of Grand Street boys into a social club, ever since known as the Samuel Tichner Society. When the members suggested that they do something for him, he said that there really wasn't much that he wanted in this life—and yet he smiled and said nothing could please him more than the type of service held on Sunday, when a member suggested it.
Here we are wondering half the time where we are going to get the next meal, or how we are going to pay the rent, or whether we should make this investment or that one, or how we can get well, and this man is enjoying a funeral "act."
No doubt you have expressed a desire "to have your roses while you live," but even at that you merely meant that you wanted people to be kind to you, to be thoughtful of and to be fair with you at all times. Let us hope that this type of showing respect and appreciation will not become a fad.—T.E.B.
Cleanliness and Civilized Living
By HELENE L. WILLIAMS
THE American fondness for bathtubs is up to us by prowlers into history as a decadence. We are reminded that in Rome the fall of the empire, bathing became a aesthetic pastime that expressed the mental anness into which the Romans had sunk.
THE American fondness for bathtubs is sometimes held up to us by prowlers into history as an indication of decadence. We are reminded that in Rome, shortly before the fall of the empire, bathing became a luxurious and aesthetic pastime that expressed the mental and physical softness into which the Romans had sunk.
Our modern physicians, however, continue to recommend frequent bathing. They consider that cleanliness is an aid in the fight against preventable disease. Clean hands and fingernails keep countless germs from entering the body by way of the mouth, as, for example, in the handling of food.
Tuberculosis infection is often caused in childhood by transferring the tubercle bacillus to the mouth from toys that have lain about the floor or street, or have been soiled by sputum from some careless spit-up. Squintuous cleanliness is also a mental and physical stimulant, as well as a disease preventive.

Once upon a time it was a custom in these United States for a girl to be a "Hot Mamma." She had to smoke, drink, pet with every "Whosit Whatstit?" that came her day, wear dresses above the knee and stockings below, and use oodles of manicure.
The best way to guard against dangerous germs making any headway is not to lower your physical resistance so that your body becomes a fertile ground for them to multiply. You can build a strong resistance by eating nourishing foods, getting plenty of rest, fresh air, exercise and sunshine and by being clean.
The teaching of health habits is one of the chief activities in the work of the National Tuberculosis Center. They are conducting the twenty-first annual sale of Christmas deals in December.

The Times Changeth
ONCE upon a time it was a custom in these United States for a girl to be a "Hot Mamma." She had to smoke, drink, pet with every "Whosit Whatssit" that came her way, wear dresses above the knee and stockings below, and use oodles of make-up in order to represent "Flaming Youth." On me it was to do lots of things to be wild. Of course, she had to have a whole string of boy friends, old and young, rich and poor, innocent and the otherwise.
But that period, my dear folks, is ancient history to us now. It seems as if the men folks got fed-up good and plenty! There was a reaction, end today we find a different type preferred. We find the average man seeking the girl he can respect and of whom he can be proud.
He wants her weild-dressed, but modestly so. He refers to her that does not smoke and commands her not to drink. He does not want her to be too popular or too smart or too independent.
And, last, but foremost, he must be the sole object of her affection. On that point our modern damselfly have get to stick to the chalk-line.
The men folks, it seems, have experienced more than they care to go through again, or they have seen others' experiences and they're taking no chances.
"One at a time" is the slogan nowadays, and it's a mighty safe one. If you don't believe me, pick up any paper and if most of the murders aren't caused by deviations from that slogan, I'll eat my newest hat.

Simple Meals.
There is a constant appeal for simple meals in this busy world today, when the home-maker has almost as many outside interests as the business woman. The home-maker wishes to please her family, spending the entire day at: the kitchen, the business woman wishes to entertain the friends she is unable to see during the day with a little dinner in a restful atmosphere.
The plank is one answer to this ever present problem, because it makes in every way for economy, is a labor-saving device taking the place of the oven in the kitchen and serving dishes in the dining room, thus eliminating many dishes to be washed and making the service very simple. Planks come in many sizes and several shapes, but in selecting the size for your family, do not forget that practically a whole meal is to be served in a plank. The plank plank is much to be preferred, as no other wood gives such an excellent flavor to the meat.
A Mixed Grill.
A mixed grill is one of the delightful combinations which may be prepared on a plank, and with a lettuce salad and simple dessert makes a delicious meal for the unexpected guest. Many a hotel on the shore has been famous for its planked shad, but few have thought of serving on a plank, steaming hot and attractively garnished, the ordinary haddock. In fact, practically all the meats which you order for bake may be cooked with little moles may be cooked on a plank. Ham, chops, veal, steak, hamburger steak, chicken, are just a few of the main dishes that can be planked.
For the 'mixed grill' grease the plank well and heat, or use a greased, heat-proof platter. Broil four lamb chops on one side, Rellen the plank one chop and arrange one end of the plank three tomatoes, cut in slices and dipped in melted butter and seasoned flour. In the middle place two bananas, cut in half and dipped in melted butter and lemon juice. Place in the turkey slices mushroom cups, which have been dipped in butter. Return to the broiler and cook until the chops are done and the tomatoes and bananas are well browned.
to marry him about a year from now, when he expects to have enough money for a start. He says that he doesn't know where his wife is. Since he comes from a distant State, I don't know anyone who knows him.
Kinly advise me. I forgot to tell you that I have no people here in EVELYN. Dear Evelyn:
You tell that young man of yours that if he hasn't got any papers to show his freedom, he'd better get some.
How is he going to answer the question, "Is this your first marriage?" You know, you've got to give proof of a divorce or annulment at the Marriage License Bureau.
I'll say he set the date of the wedding a nice little time off! Gives him just about time enough to obtain his desires and get tired and skip off before he's made to commit himself in black and white.
Be behind this fellow and, if he can't send to the place where he got his divorce (?) and get a copy of it, you give him the quick and timely, thank you stars that you've rid yourself of him.
Good luck.

Prepare a dressing, using three cupfuls of bread crumbs, one teaspoonful onion juice, one teaspoonful melted butter, salt, pepper powder, butter, the fish and sew up. Grease a plank well and heat thoroughly. Score the surface of the stuffed fish and lay pieces of bacon in the slashes. Wash six tomatoes. Cut a slice from the top and scoop out a little tomato. Fill the center with buttered rice. Place the fish around the fish the last fifteen minutes of cooking. Prepare well-seasoned mashed potatoes, adding one heaten egg to a quart of mashed potatoes. Put in a pastry bag and make nests of the potato around the edge of the plank, alternating the with the stupped tomatoes. Return the plank to the oven and brown the potatoes. Remove and fill the potato nest with well-seasoned hot peas.

An ovenproof glass platter is now on the market and is excellent for use in place of a plank.

Looking Your Best BY FANNETTE
— Care of the Hair —
MANY of us either neglect our hair or rely too much on a hair-dresser.
It is surprising what good results will come from persistent care. Before going to bed, comb your hair with a fine-tooth comb in order to get at the dandruff. Divide your hair into four sections and treat each section as if it were a head in itself. If your hair is dry, dip a piece of cotton into some olive oil and massage each one of the four sections well. If you prefer an ointment, you will find that most of the modern preparations made by the hair hair systems are satisfactory.
After you have rubbed the oil or ointment into the scalp, brush your hair vigorously, using at least twenty-five strokes. Do this to each of the four sections.
If you have a marcel, you'll find that more delicate brushing will enhance the beauty and set of the wave, especially after it has been in for two or three days.
Be careful of the ends of your hair, as no matter how well-groomed the top may be, if the ends are frazzled, split and jagged, the whole appearance is spotted. When bringing up the ends of the hair, that the iron must not be too hot. Test it on a piece of paper and if it burns the paper in the slightest it is too hot for the hair. Dip the iron in oil or put vaseline or an oilment on it. Make sure that the ends of the hair are well greased before you start rolling the hair. Be very careful in handling iron, whether curling or straightening, as more harm than good can be done. And, please, good people don't neglect the back of your neck. Hair on the back of one's neck is absolutely tahoo. Use a safety razor or have your barber or hair dresser trim you with some electric. It's the little things that count, and it's surprising, as well as oftimes provoking, how many little things there are about us.
Girl Flyer Head of Western Flying Club
LOS ANGELES, Calif., Nov. 5—of (ANP) a girl flyer is star of the Los Angeles Aero Club here. She is Mrs. Geraldine Forsdorn, known familiarly to her friends as "Jerry." She is pretty, graceful, and very popular, but she has, highly ambivalent bird girls. She bids fair to be an outstanding figure in the near future. The club is called the Bessie Coleman Aero Club and has as its aim the promotion of aeronautics.
One of the members of the club is Walter Swagworty, Dole flight entrant, with eleventeen years' experience. Another is Lieutenant of Detective Maceo Sheffield, known as the "flying cop" and the only Nero in the West owning his own plane.

RENAISSANCE TO FACE HARD TEST
Defeated Cohen's Giants Sunday, but Facing Hard Bunch This Week
(6v FRANCIS)
Andy Cohen, second baseman of the New York Giants baseball team, brought a speedy bunch of American League stars to the Renaissance Casino to tackle Bob Douglas's Renaissance Five last Sunday eight and had to be satisfied with the short time he spent with the Titans. The starter young Eddie Moore, their baby member, and Ricks as forwards, Sanders as center and Jenkins and Satch as guards, Cohen, who started at forward for the visitors, surprised the crowd by scoring the first basket of the game and followed that with a foul. The visitors were playing a fast, snappy back with game time kept back with quick matching point for point, ending the first half 21 to 20 in Renaissance favor. With the start of the 2nd half, Bob start in Shoem at center and gave locks a rest from his first half effort in which he kept up his good work of last week by making six baskets. This new combination developed an airight defense and it only time before the visitors could penetrate their lines to score basket.
Meanwhile Monroe and Jenkins were finding the basket with sickening regularity with the result that the champions soon went out to a comfortable lead. Safe out in front the Renaissance made another change, sending Hill out and shifting Slocum to a bench carried on to the end of the fray. The game was a remarkably clean one, only 17 fouls being called throughout the entire game. Young Monroe played a wonderful game for a coach unaccustomed to big time professional games and, while he showed his inexperience in holding his man at times, his floor work, voting and general handling of the ball, he is another slum in the making. He accounted for six haskets.
Next Sunday the Xavier team from Brooklyn will be the opponents of the champions. This team is comprised of some of the best players in the Metropolitan district, with Red Connery, COoney. Bat Gropy, Schriet and Joe Browman in their line-up. They recently defeated the Renaisance by four points in Brooklyn and we feel if our boys are to be defeated on their home court this season this team may be the one to win. The preliminary game the champions won from St. Ambrose and 29 to 19 after being behind in first half 11 to 12.

Magazine Article Telis of Warrior Bobby Dobbs
Bobby Dobbs, probably lasted longer than any other fighter listed in the record books, according to *Fight Stories Magazine*. He engaged in ving warfare for thirty years, and sixyears sixty still boxes every day in the gym with youngsters a third his years. Bob Fitzsimmons was in the ring for thirty years, and Frank Craig, the Harlem Coffee Cooler, as a host. Bobby, slim and lean, still has some of his old speed. It was meant to watch him with sluggers like Bobby Barrett. The old fellow tried to teach the Clifton Heights skill of never succeeded. Barrett was just fast and could have topped Dobbs旱 and could have to him; but, in their short training books, he never could land.
Training of oldtimers is reminiscent of Billy McLean, a fine hard-earned fighter of sixty years or three ago. At ninety Billy put on the gloves in an exhibition bout and moved that he immediately for the self-physically-provoking that a real body, if properly cared for, will a long way.
RENS IN HARDEST GAME THE COMING SUNDAY Gans' Manager to Insist Fighters Make Weight
Negro Boxers Hop Into Limelight (From The Brooklyn Times.)
YEARS have passed since the Negro race was so prominent in as many divisions as it is at the moment. In George Godfrey it boasts a man whom any number of close observers of things pugilistic assert is the boss of the heavies. Jack Thompson looks good enough on the result of his encounter with Joe Dundee to be ranked with the best welters. Baby Joe Gans, if he can make the weight, is a menace to Lightweight Champion Sammy Mandell's reign. Kid Chocolate is accepted by many as a dangerous element to the security of Andre Routis as featherweight champion. Al Brown is probably as good a bantamweight as there is anywhere and by the National Boxing Association is recognized as the champion of the world.
Sounds like the days of Langford, Walcott, Gans and Dixon. What a quartet of fighters they were!

Georgia State Falls Before South Carolina "Bulldogs"
ORANGEEBURG FAIR GROUNDS.
—After overcoming what was considered to be much opposition in the first half, State Collage "Bull Dogs" found it easy to make points at two regiments, and was sent north. To the surprise of the large number of fans who had gathered fowm miles around, State (South Carolina) did not try any take plays, only three end runs, and very few passes, which means that worked hard on Georgia State's line.
The boys from Savannah showed much pep in the first half, but with a 7 to 0 old against them to start the next half must have been a big hit. The scoring continued to the end and closed 39 to 0, with Georgia state the loser.

CHOCOLATE IN ACTION AGAIN
Meeting Pinkey Silverberg in Benefit Show at St. Nick Arena
With heavyweights monopolizing the card at the Garden, the fans will turn to the St. Nick show on Thursday night for speed and action which is bound to be on tap with such ringers on the bill as Kid Chocolate, Al Singer and Jackie Schweitzer. The trio are generally accepted in boxing circles as the most promising of the newcomers who have reached the "star bout" division. Each will be seen in an eight-round bout and the proceeds of the show will go to the philanthropic fund of the Fifth Avenue Boys' Association, which is made up of a group of some 20 prominent musical and professional former residents of upper Fifth avenue, banded together for social and charitable purposes. Benny Leonard, retired lightweight champion, is a charter member and has subscribed for a large block of ringside seats.
Chocolate will meet Pinky Softly in a celebration over Pete Sanstol. Schweitzer, undefeated in twenty-eight battles, tackles Angelo Gentile, a neighborhood featherweight rival, and Singer City in a return go.
The latter contest will be a real grudge affair, with Lawson boasting that he'll hit Singer plenty, but not one punch will be struck, show the referee the difference, but not the referee stopped the bout in the second round with Singer on the floor claiming a foul.
Kid McPartland, who was the third man in the ring, was censured for his action, since Singer wore a black boxing glove and issued a Boxing Commission. The referee stopped the bout without consulting the two judges at the ringside as to the legality of the blow that dropped he Bronx featherweight. At Commissioner Muldoon's suggestion, the two boxers agreed to settle their differences because of the worthy cause sponsored by the organization backing the fights.
Y. M. D. Opens With Win Over Alpha Frat Team
The Y. M. D. opened its 1923-29 season with a thrilling 28 to 25 victory over the Alpha fraternity basketball team last week. The score was close, with the exception of the first five minutes when Alpha ran up eleven points to Y. M. D.'s one. At half-time the teams were deadlocked at 18 to 18.
Coach Townsend, the new Y. M. D. mentor, used his large squad of thirteen men in an effort to get line on his material under fire: every man contributed to the victory.
Gregory, Alpha's center, was polson to the small "Y" men. His attempts at the basket were sure to a great degree. However, personal fouls taking him from the conflict late in the second period lessened Alpha's offense immensely.
Captain Riley, aled, by John Hands, put the game on lee in the last few second days when Al E. final whistle blew shortly after J. Hands clinched the game with two free throws.
On Saturday, Nov. 10, Y. M. D. will be opposed by the University Five, with Bob Payne, McCoy, Work, McNichols and a few more college players. For the game, they play "Y" players a stiff tussle. Lineup of Saturday's game;

COLLEGIANS ARE GOING STRONG
Doubled Score on Wiedman Five Last Friday Night
(By Francis)
The Original Collegians, New York State amateur champions, more than doubled the score of the Wiedman Boys' Five last Friday night at the Alhambra Ballrooms when they trounced them by the score of 63 to 31.
The Wiedman aggregation started like a white scoring first three points of the game, with a field goal and a foul, and kept up this fast scoring until they had secured a lead on the champions of 7 to 4 in the first few minutes of the game. At this point the Collegians machine got hitting on all five, and they scored after that. At half time the score was 29 to 19 in the Collegians' favor.
Manager Seals gave Joe Mills, his tall center, a rest, and delegated Jack Livingston to take the pivot position. Jack not only got the tap most of the time, but played a most wonderful floor game, showing his uneasy skill in manipulating the ball, which only allowed in addition scored 6 field goals and three fouls. Joe Stoele also ran amuck, dropping them in from all angles of the court, securing 8 field goals and the honor of being top individual scorer for the evening.
Johnnie Holt could not seem to get going in the first half, but came with us in the second half, and closed off 4 two timers. F. Cohen and Siegel were the high scorers for the visitors, with 13 and 9 points respectively.
Next Friday night the Collegians will tackle the strong Hudson Guild Club of the West Side. This is the club from whose ranks came many of the stars on the Original Celtics' team, and it is almost sure a strong team will come up to action to represent the Guild.
In the preliminary game on Friday night, the St. Christopher Arrows and the Carlton "Y" will hook up. It was announced last Friday night that games are booked for the near future with the Original Buffaloes and the Henry Street Settlement teams.

GANS' MANAGER DRAWS THE LINE
Baby Joe Has Made Good Here and Weight Is Considered
Baby Joe Gans, sensational Los Angeles lightweight who tangles with Joe Glick in a ten-round bout at Madison Square Garden Nov. 16, to determine who shall meet Sammy Mandell in a titular tussle when the current lightweight king fully recovers from his recent accident to his collarbone, is ready to battle any lightweight and junior-welterweight in the world.
Larney Lichtenstein, veteran pilot of fistcuffs, who has the dusky colored demon in tow, told a group of newspapermen who were gathered in the sanctum sanctorum of Tom McArdle, Madison Square Garden matchmaker, that Gans will meet anyone up to 140 pounds; but will not consider meeting welterweight and kidderweight as he has been doing since he first invaded the East a few months ago.
Lichtenstein said: "Of course, we had to concede as much as ten pounds to the fighters around here. Everyone has to do that in order to gain recognition in a strange country. He's not the only one firmly established himself as the outstanding contender for the lightweight title, he'll not give away that kind of weight to anyone!" The man who piloted Jimmy Clabby. Ad Wolgaat. Cyclone Johnny Thompson and many other topnotchers in his ranks of fight managers was hitting on all six cylinders.
Larney was emphatic in his remarks. He continued: "Baby Joe has done everything the skeptics have asked for. He has hung up a mask and is the word of the day. He took on everyone the matchmakers here asked him to meet. He knocked out clever Andy Divoid, Cuddy DeMarco and Harry Felix. These fellows rank very high in NY, New York, and then they over it was proof that he is the genuine article. Billy White, a tremendous puncher with a right hand, weighed 149 pounds, and yet he did not have a look-in ten pounds. Gans also trimmed ten pounds who weighed around 150 pounds.
"They are giving Jackie Fields lots of credit for belting out Sammy Baker out on the Pacific Coast, but the Sergenat was ready to go anyway. I don't want to be taking reed off the field of the best wetweights around today, but he is a 147-pounder. I have been asked to match Gans with Fields, but why? Baby Joe is a legitimate 135-pounder, a real lightweight. Fields, as I said before, is a legitimate 147-pounder, a real wetterweight, the third that the Gans get Fields to weigh 140 pounds for Gans. I'll make the match." Larney wound up his splep and left the gang to ponder.
Watson Men Show Improvement and Swamp Dover
BORDENTOWN, Nov. 3—Showing tremendous improvement over their form in their last game, the Watson-coached eleven of the Bordentown School overwhelmed Dover State College under a 36 to 0 score in a fairly interesting game that was played in drizzling rain today. The wet ball and uncertain footing in off-dashioned football but the Bordentown schoolboys excelled in this, and their fierce charging and tackling kept the Delaware invaders on the run throughout. Several penalties for holding and off-side kept the ball in the middle of the field for the first tailled at the state of two touchdowns a quarter.
Tillman and Russ starred for the Blue, the former making beautiful runs around end, and the latter conning two touchdowns from long runs. Do we have power on the line and made several first downs through center, but could not maintain the gait long enough to get into the scoring column? Do we have power makes it certain that they will make things interesting for Morgan College in their annual game at Baltimore next week.

La Barba, Graham Ignore Boxing Body
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 27. —Bushy Graham of Utica, N. Y., and Fidel La Barba will box ten rounds here November 20, Olympic Auditorium officials announced. Though Al Brown of New York is recognized as bantamweight champion by the National Boxing Association, the contest will be billed as being for the title. La Barba, who retired as an undefeated flyweight champion to enter Stanford University a year ago, won a decision from Graham here recently, but both weighed more than 118 pounds.
MORGAN CLAWED LINCOLN LIONS
Pinky Clarke Pulled the Works on the Chester
Men
The Lincoln Lion left his habitat in Penn's Woods and took to the warpath. He was ready for a fight. He wanted a fight. He got one. He got more than he wanted. The Morgan Grizzly called his bluff, and how! The bear smashed, ripped, clawed and pawed his way to the new town of the game about the middle of the first quarter. The score came as the culmination of a beautiful 75-yard advance. With fourth down and four to go, Hicks made good on a smash through the center of the Lion's defense. A pass from Pinky Clark, admittedly one of the best passers in the East, to be honest, was not good. Then the battle began anew. For the next three periods both teams were at each other's throats. Neither could keep the upper hand for long. They ripped, passed, smashed, kicked—but all to no avail. In the final quarter the Lion opened up a desist, and he got himself something, but the bear's secondary defense woke up first in time to prevent this.
It was a hard, fast, clean game. A crow of 2,000 and about 300 cans taxed the accommodations of Morgan's new athletic field.

Chocolate was all set for the knockout, for he dropped his opponent for the count of nine near the end of the third round. These wore the only knockdowns, although the spectacular in the first two rounds. Tony Leto scored a technical knockout over Jack Pettitone in the third round of the semi-final.

McMahon to Stage Big Bout in Cuba
Jess McMahon, promoter of the New York Coliseum, will make a flying visit to Havana to stage a battle between Kid Chocolate and Chick Suggs the first week in December. McMahon was delighted by the promoters, who advised him that the bout would draw 50,000 persons. The local promoter said yesterday he would make the trip by rail and airplane, as he expects to begin operations at the Coliseum soon after New Year's Day and desires to stay away from this city as little as possible. Chocolate will leave for his home after his battle with Frisco Grande at the Olympia A. C. Saturday night and Pinkox Silverberg on the Fifth Avenue Boys' gala boxing program at the St. Nicholas Argon next Thursday. The news of Chocolate's success victories hero has made him and with his townpeople, who wished him to leave at once for Havana. His contracts for the Grande and Silverberg bouts prevented this.

TEACHER'S ASSAILANT SENT TO JAIL
Woman Who Scalded Mrs. Edith Mack Sentenced to Workhouse for Ten Days
Wife Sought to Remonstrate With Dorothea Ross for Alleged Five-Year Intimacy With Her Husband First Held for Felonious Assault
Dorothea Ross, 24, dentist's assistant, 242 West 143d street, who struck with a stick and scaled Mrs. Edith Mack, school teacher and wife of Charles Mack, process server, 9718 Thirty-second avenue, Corona, L. I., was sent to the Workhouse for ten days on a charge of disorder conduct when she appeared before Magistrate Rosenbluth in Heights Court Friday.
EIGHT
Miss Ross was represented by counsel, who fully admitted the guilt of his client and pleaded for a suspended sentence and suggested that a peace bond be imposed upon Miss Ross for one year. A moment before, a probation officer returned an unfavorable report to the court concerning Miss Ross. When the magistrate imposed sentence Miss Ross's attorney said to her, "That's about the best you could get. Friday's hearing closed a dramatic chapter in the domestic career of the macks. For five years, Mrs. Mack claims, Miss Ross has been running around with her husband. The Macks have a little boy about four years old, and Mrs. Mack pleaded with Miss Ross to let her husband alone, at least for the sake of the child, it is reported.
One day last summer Mrs. Mack confronted her husband in the company of Miss Ross at 135th street and Seventh avenue. Miss Ross attacked her, it is said, and tore off the whole front of the school teacher's dress, all the while calling her vile names. The husband is said to have left the scene before the attack. Unable to stand any further abuse from Miss Ross, the school teacher went to the woman's home in West 143d street on October 8.
After remonstrating with Miss Ross, Mrs. Mack said she was struck twice on the head with a stick and when she attempted to take the stick from the woman she was scared with hot water. Mrs. Ross scalded her, too, so badly about the face, neck, chest, hands and left side that she required treatment at the hospital.
Mrs. Mack obtained a court summons for Miss Ross but found it necessary to have her arrested by Warrant Officer Boyle. The woman was arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate Well on a short affidavit on October 24.
A full complaint was drawn up and having her with felonious assault and bail was denied. However, Magistrate Well finally consented to fix bail at $1,500 and she was released on bond furnished by Junius M. Green, bondsman, 168 West 136th street.
Magistrate Rosenbluth heard the case again last Wednesday. Upon learning that Mrs. Mack had visited Miss Ross's home, ostensibly for the purpose of starting trouble, the charge of felonious assault was changed to disorderly conduct and an assault was ordered by the probation officer.
When the court received the probation officer's report on Friday, a ten-day sentence in the workhouse was imposed.
Free Policeman in Harlem Man's Death
The declaration that he shot James (Alco) Sessoms unintentionally last May freed Officer Charles J. Reilly of charges in connection with the man's death at a final hearing Saturday before Deputy Police Commissioner Muldoon. Sessoms, the alleged proprietor of a speakeasy on West 135th street, is said to have snatched the officer's slick while being struck. The policeman then drew his gun and shot the man as he walked away, it was charged as a patrolman's defense was that he arrested Sessoms on suspicion of robbery and shot only when the man grabbed his club and began striking him.
Mrs. Elizabeth Batts, for many years a resident of Plainfield, N. J., died recently at the residence of her son, John Hedgeman, 2323 Seventh avenue. Mrs. Batts, who was 78 years of age, was a native of Virginia and had been ill only a short time. Funeral services were held from the chapel of H. Adolph Howell. Publication of the town of Metropolitan Baptist Church officiated. Interment was at Woodland Cemetery.
ADMITS PATERNITY
OF UNBORN CHILD
Admission of paternity was made Friday in Special Sessions by Sidney Edwards, 29 West 135th street, before Judge Vorhees. Edwards was accused by Miss Cynthia Howard, 76 East 115th street. He was ordered to provide surety of $500 and pay $35 for lying in expenses and $5 weekly for upkeep of the child upon birth, this month.

Mitchell H. Royall's Illness Baffled Doctors — Was Son of Virginia Jurist
Mitchell H. Royall, 203 Edgecombe avenue, brother of John M. Royall, died at the Presbyterian Hospital after a long illness Friday. Funeral services were held yesterday at St. Mark's M. E. Church, with the Rev. J. W. Robinson officiating.
His death came as the finale to a losing fight waged by Roosevelt and Presbyterian Hospital doctors. The exact nature of his illness is to be revealed by an autopsy, his relatives believe complications were due to injury received playing football at Shaw University three decades ago.
The deceased, who conducted a real estate business for ten years at 230 West 14th street and was one of the founders of the Harlem Allied Associates, received his education at Hampton institute and the above mentioned college. He was born in Halifax County, Va., March 18, 1880. Mr. Royall was the son of the late Pinckney P. Royall, who was a justice of the peace and militant figure during the years following the close of the Civil War, and a family sheltered the famous John Brown in their home the night before his historical raid on Harper's Ferry. The deceased was married twice; first to Miss Maria Coleman, Halifax County school teacher, who died in 1908, and in 1921 to Miss Mary B.

Ex-Pupil of James Weldon Johnson Battles Way Toward Career in Art
How he battled with poverty, environment and the cares of martial life for the sake of a career in art was recounted here last week, by George B. Morse, 157 West 123d street, one-time pupil of James Weldon Johnson, and now an artist who has just begun to gain recognition.
Morse, who is thirty years old, and came into public notice when he painted a life-size portrait of Bill (Bojangles) Robinson, famous dancer, leaves this week with his wife for Florida, where he will study and work. Last year he won honorable mention for his entry in the Krigwa contest sponsored by the Crisis Magazine.
This year he is striving again with the competitors. Recently he was made staff artist of the Black Bard Magazine, a new Southern art publication.
What he terms the most fortunate connection of his period of study and work is employment as valet to the wealthy white artist, Capt. H. L. Willoughby of Newport and Philadelphia.
Five Injured in Uptown Fights
Woman Struck With Iron Comb Among Sunday Morning Victims
Altercations uptown Sunday and Monday sent a half-dozen persons to Harlem Hospital with various lacerations and contusions to be treated.
For the past four winter seasons he has taken Morse with him to Jensen. Fla. giving him light duties and ample time to study and paint. He also gives his valet-pupil the benefit of his criticism and guidance in his work.
Morse is a native of Jacksonville and graduated from the Staunton High School there after a period of college under the poet, author and N. A. Global, James Weldon Johnson. He works as a waiter instead of going to college and dabbed in art as a pastime. He entered the School of Applied Art, Battle Creek, Mich.
He studied cartooning, sketching and painting there for three years and expects to complete the course next year. The school's recommendation procured him the position of staff artist for the Black Bard, a journal of poetry and music, coming from the press this month at Institute, Ala. It is edited by M. Christopher Carmichael, and lists R. Nathaniel Dett and Robert W. Claphorne of the New York Lawrence-Smith School among its contributing editors.
The young artist is of a shy nature, and talks of his work only under pressure. His one confidante is his wife of four years, who, he avers, is his chief source of inspiration.
Morse's work includes a variety of subjects and types of expression. He is able to swing into the care-free air of an impudent cartoon, and yet catch the delicacy of a character in painting and sketching. His painting of Robinson, the stage star, has been sent to Chicago to be placed among the dancer's treasures in possession of his mother.
Asked why he did not bring out his work more for the approval of art seekers, he declared he was waiting for the day when he was sure no apology was needed to accompany it.

SECOND SECTION
During a discussion with a friend, the question, "Have economic disadvantages seriously handicapped the progress of Negro composers in the production of works of large proportion?" arose. While it is true that one must live, nevertheless Negro composers must make tremendous commercializing their art if they are able to achieve fame. They must be taught that talent or genius is not sufficient, but they must have the finest endowments, the most enthusiastic love for study, unflagging perseverance, sound mind and intelligence, sound mind and these general prerequisites may devote themselves to music with a fair show of success.
The "Negro Rhapsodies" of Rubin Goldmark and John Powell, the "Comedy on Negro Themes" by Gilbert, and other works of literature should be the utterances musicians should. Surely, they can get the same materials, but lack of technical skill forbids them from attempting the large orchestral forms. If their faculties were properly cultivated they would make wonderful progress in these directions.
On the other hand, the Negro has greater obstacles to overcome than his white brother. His economic position is not any too secure. Many of the delinquencies that many of the bright men of the race finally become enslaved to can be caused to this dreadful condition back of the resistance plays an important part such embarrassing situations. Schubert, Mozart and Beethoven were pitifully poor. These geniuses were given an opportunity by royalty to create to their souls' desire. Wagner was immeasurably aided by his devoted friend, Liszta, who has conquered the world. Great relief was rewarded his begestress for all times by dedicating to her his monumental "Fourth Symphony."
The great popularity that Russian music now enjoys was made possible by Bellaeffa, a wealthy lumber and mining merchant of Russia. The founders of the National School, known as "The Great Five" by their untriting efforts, who brought their native music from observers to world audiences, were also able assisted by the magnanimous support of Bellaeffa. Edward MacDowell, America's outstanding composer, was relieved of his duties of teaching at Columbia and given an annuity of $5,000 to devote time to composition, "Woodland Sketches," the group of numbers he gave to the music world in the spring of 1905 in New Hampshire woods, was the introduction which resulted in this splendid gratuity.
Even Misha Levitskij and Lee Ornstein, concert pianists of the day, were brought to the attention of wealthy patrons of the art who saw to it that their education was the best. Sir Charles Villiers Stanton, Merge-Taylor in the right direction, and Harry T. Burleigh, so the story goes, was rescued by a wealthy physician's wife in Erie, Pa. Burleigh has and is continually commended for his untiring love for study and his efforts in making possible for young, ambitious students to combat successfully the obstacles confronting them on their roads to success.
The Negro musician must also have the same support and encouragement as his white brother. Unless his economic position, substantially improves and the necessary financial support is forthcoming, I am afraid the debased element of the art will prevail. However, his facts and become indolent. For as Thomas Edison truly said: 'Success is 5 per cent inspiration, 95 per cent perspiration.'
Lyndon Caldwell Appears In Brooklyn Recital
Lyndon Hoffman Caldwell, pianist, appeared at the Brooklyn Academy of Music last Tuesday before a large audience, obviously drawn largely by the appearance of a familiar favorite. He offered a familiar but interesting program, the Major Sonata of Haydn, the Piano Sonata Schumann and small works of the composer being the numbers on the printed list. The wealth of spontaneous and sparkling melodies that abound in the lovely Haydn sonata, as well as its rhythmic vitality, were never lost, due to Mr. Caldwell's well-balanced and logical interpretations. Although in Haydn's music we find the impression of a real personality, we missed the great depth of emotion or the tragic intensity of a Beethoven.
Mr. Caldwell achieved many fine results in the performance of Schumann's Papillon. The description of the various characters and the conversation of the two lovers were made vividly suggestive by the subtitle of the book, "Feeling the plaintant from the text." In the Scherzo in C Sharp Minor, Opus 39, one of Chopha's most eloquent and characteristic works, Mr. Caldwell was best in the second part, with its broad canbanthe' melody of hymn-like character. The legato touch was none other than such that might be obtained by an artist with a strong phrase was adorned throughout with lovely coloristic embellishments. Although the audience which heard Mr. Caldwell was apparently well pleased, Mr. Caldwell remained too long on the platform between each group. This caused great restness, which was plainly visible through the eyes. We have no quarrel with those who believe that Mr. Caldwell should have remained silent and not

To Select Cast for "Sugar Cane"
The Majestic Theatrical Circuit, inc., through its president, Jack Goldberg, has made a departure from its usual plans in having contracted to produce a comedy drama from the pen of Frank Wilson, the eminent playwright having the lead in "Porgy." The title of this play is "Sugar Cane," not to be confused with a musical tab of the same name. The circuit is now engaging the cast and an opportunity is open for Negro artists of this country to receive an audition for roles in the screenplay. The story, while in no sense propaganda, forcibly portrays the life of a Negro mother who courageously fights for a principle, sacrificing her all, and with what success you are asked to judge. Casting is going on at the office of the Majestic Theatrical Circuit, Inc., 223 West Fort-forty-sixth street, where all artists will receive every consideration they may merit.

Needle Trades Offer Men and Women Profitable Work, School Head Says
By OBIE McCOLLUM
With the gradual breaking down of racial lines in the needle trades, the largest New York industry, and the lucrative salaries offered trained workers, opportunities for entrance of Negroes into a field in which they are little represented are increasing, officials of the Central Needle Trades Continuation School, 128 West Thirty-first street, asserted in an interview Wednesday.
The elaborately equipped school, only two and a half years old, has 2,200 pupils enrolled in its day classes and 900 in its evening sessions. The day students, for the most part enrolled through the compulsory continuation laws, have only fifty colored pupils in their ranks. In the night classes the non-white number one-fourth of the attendance.

Plans for Soldiers' Monu-
Twenty-five instructors and two administrative assistants under the direction of Mortimer C. Ritter, white, comprise the staff of the school. Courses are offered in the women' and men's garment trades, millinery, novelties and salesmanship. Listed under the general heads are a score of trade branches, each the means of a livelihood. While the day needle trades' students prepare themselves to accept positions in a surprisingly short compared with many other trades, the working type of pupil is found in the midst of signs. Power machine operation, salaries for which range from $17.50 to $55 weekly, is learned by the more ambitious in six weeks. Other students require as many as six months to acquire a rounded knowledge of the various makes of machines. Courses in tailoring, designing and pattern making require longer. Further designing and merchandising of garments and garment branches also require from four months to a term, and longer.
Seeking to eliminate unemployment in slack seasons, students are urged to take courses in the novelties and millinery to complete the season. Workers in the trades are also given special training to prepare them for highly skilled labor and better pay.
In order to meet requests of employers and labor organizations who are co-operating with 'the school in placing students and in furnishing materials, most of the pupils' work is done on a half scale, or made in halves. Full size articles are completed, however, for the students' own use.
An example of the opportunities offered regardless of race is that a leading manufacturer of men's clothing, whose suits are retailled at up to $175, has promised to employ any student graduated and recommended by the department of tailoring.
Others cited are the employment of Negro boys and girls in the fur and power operating industries. An employer may require a preference for white workers, but will, with little urging, forget race.
The trades school has made ample preparation for the social life of its students. The day and evening classes meet at their dances, and motion pictures and lectures are provided. A summer camp is provided by the college boys. The welfare department includes full dental and medical service. Stating the school's attitude toward its Negro students, Mr. Ritter declared that special courses designed to give them entrance into more of the needle trades will be started upon application of a sufficient number. Numerous Harlemites have been trained in needle making, notable one being a young man who has opened a paying tailoring business on Eighth avenue.

Commander Sam Falde and Felix A. Ortiz, chairman. The tentative monument committee is headed by Lieut. Frank Elsworth Spencer. Co-operating ex-service men are Lieut. Howard C. Jones, Col.

One of the most serious obligations is to avoid speaking about peculiarities or family imperfections with other guests or to discuss such matters elsewhere after the visit is over.

She tries to make herself acceptable to everyone, responds readily to any request to contribute by her accomplishments to the general pleasure, not for personal display, but for a genuine wish to help to entertain. If one can sinn- play, take a hand in case a good story, a book, or an arrangement it is a duty to comply with the less; hint from the host or hostess suggestive of the wish to cid.

Ransom Would Play Wiz Zem
Bishop Denies Receiving Money From Democrats for His Stand
Over 1,000 people heard the Rt. Rev. Reverdy C. Ransom, bishop of the A. M. E. Church, brand as a baso falsehood the alleged statement that he was the president for his services to the Democratic party during the campaign. This statement was made during his speech Wednesday night at the citizen's rally of the Alfred Smith for President Association of Kings County, which was held Jefferson Hall, 45 Court Square.
Bishop-Ransom stated that he had volunteered his services because he believed that the Republican party thinks that it holds the 12,000,000 Negroes in political bondage. He also asked the party to enunciate ourselves. He also made the point that there is no love in politics nor is there any sentiment. Hence it is up to us to leave the Republican party now, play with the Democrats and prove to them the power and the joy and may he on the level with us.
This meeting, which was the largest ever staged by the local Democratic organization in its history, was preceded by a rally of 100 automobile in line and several hundred of the faithful walked. They were led by the band of Brooklyn Lodge No. 22 of the Elks and the 15th Regiment from New York City. A delegation of New York City Democrats came over in buses.

Judge Henry of Philadelphia One of Speakers at Armistice Day Celebration
The National Afro-American League, of which the Rev. Thomas Harten of Holy Trinity Church of its city is president, is holding an Armistice Day celebration at the church on Monday evening, November 12, at 8:30. The purpose of the celebration is to honor the Negro heroes of the late World War, and Judge Henry of Philadelphia has been secured as the orator of the day.
Judge Henry is one of the most popular members of the bench in Philadelphia and will without the shadow of a doubt appear before one of the largest audiences that ever gathered at Holy Trinity, which is saying a great deal when it is taken for consideration that it is at this sacred edifice that the Rev. Harten, most militant of Brooklyn ministers, is carrying on the work which has attracted attention all over the country.
The members of the League, along with sr. hers who took part in the late war, boy and girl scouts, will assemble at the Carlton Avene to "Y" and parade from there to the church at S o'clock, led by a brass bend. In his imitative style Rev Harten will leave no stone unturned in making the occasion a memorable one.

Dr. Brown Scores Wasters of Time
Mother Zion Divine Denounces Character Sapping Diversions
Gin mills, the hooch they vend, time wasters, the greedy and the self-centered came in for severe lashing Sunday morning in the sermon by the Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, before his congregation. The clergyman spoke upon the general subject of the thieves lying in wait to rob man spiritually phytosanitized physically vaporized and vaporized the greatest of the silent robbers, and the Negro as the most willing of its followers. Harlem was pictured as a great city opening its arms to the races of the world, offering its wealth of knowledge and opportunity. Many of the inhabitants, however, he declared, are not taking advantage of the opportunities. Instead they are yielding to the lure of the diversions which rob them of cash and character, he averred. The pastor is alive in the flow of others taking their toll of physical and spiritual resources.
The example of Christ and His sacrifice were offered along with the plea for self-delight on one hand for the realization of the fuller life on the other. He pointed out the high caste East Indian Gandhi as an illustration of one who gave up his high place for the opportunity to advance his spiritual life and elevate his people. Only in the realm of character, he declared, can one reach the highest goal in life.

Caught in the toils of the police in their war on slot machines, Carmen Quirendongo, 25, a Porto Rican, 413 Sixth avenue, was given the alternative of paying a fine of $25 or spending five days in the Workhouse when convicted Thursday in Special Sessions Court. She paid.
The conviction is one of few in the fight being waged against storekeepers who give merchandise in return for slugs obtained from the machines, Officer Shelly of the Third Division testified that he entered the store at 139 East 110th street on September 14. Upon playing and receiving slugs from the machine he purchased cigarettes with them.
Carmelo Quirendongo, 39, who was arraigned with the woman, was acquitted at the trial Thursday, at which Justice Kernochan presided. On the same day Albert H. Klein, white, owner of many slot machines used throughout the country, was court against Commissioner Warren, alleging that prosecution of shopkeepers has cost him $5,000.

Stirring Up the Liberals
Stirring Up the Liberals
"NEVER AGAIN will the parties of America divide along the old traditional lines," said Heywood Broun in last Saturday's New York Telegram. "By 1932 there is reason to expect that we may have a straight out and out fight between the liberals and the conservatives. The feud between the Democrats and the Republicans rests upon such ancient causes that most of them have been forgotten."
MR. BROUN is optimistic in expecting such a change so soon, but there is no doubt that he has accurately gauged the tendency of the times. By the surrender of traditional principles the Democrats and the Republicans have become as similar as Tweedledum and Tweedledee. This has come about by the Democrats abandoning their tenets and conforming to the Republicans. The general policy of the Republicans has not changed one whit. The Democrats have abandoned their historic stand for a low tariff and subscribed to the Republican idea of a protective tariff; they imitated the Republican imperialistic policy by saddling the United States Marines on little Haiti. In the present campaign, though starting with a declaration for states' rights, their candidate has come round to demanding more Federal control of public resources and utilities, so much so that the Republican candidate accused him of advocating State socialism.
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, therefore, has become a mere echo of the Republican party on every question except that of the Negro. If either of the great parties is to disappear in a new alignment it is more likely to be the Democratic party. The only thing to keep it alive will be the Negro question, and even that will not long keep it alive unless it changes its present policy toward the Negro.
JUST WHAT PROSPECT there is of such a change will not be known till the full returns of Election Day are in. If the Republicans have made a big enough breach in the Scilid South, the change is in sight. With the South sufficiently divided to give them a chance, the Republicans will find it to their advantage to agitate for the restoration of the Negro's constitutional right to vote. The Democrats, too, may realize that they need the Negro vote to hold their local and national power. A break in the Solid South, therefore, is sure to redound to the benefit of the Negro.
THUS THE NEGRO may be in a stronger position after this campaign than before. This year, with such issues as bigotry and Prohibition, the liberal vote has been stirred up for the first time since 1856. It is absurd to think of Governor Smith as more truly liberal than Herbert Hoover, or the Democrats than the Republicans, yet the spirited fight of Governor Smith has brought the question to the front. Governor Smith is no friend of the Negro race, but his insistent plea for liberalism toward himself, his religion and his background has started a movement which will extend to the Negro.
A MAN'S WORK often has results that he never dreamed of. When the admirals of England turned down the application of fifteen-year-old George Washington for a position as midshipman in the British Navy, they could not foresee the eventual result. Governor Smith is not the first man in history who set out to do one thing and achieved another.
They Can't Lose Him
They Can't Lose Him
HARPER'S MAGAZINE, in the current issue, contains an article by James Weldon Johnson on race prejudice and the Negro artist. Mr. Johnson enumerates the Negroes, especially those in the decade since 1918, who have won recognition in art, music, literature and acting, and he rightly believes that they have done more to break down the walls of prejudice than any other force. In fact—shades of Booker Washington and the work-with-your-hands school!—Mr. Johnson looks forward to the time when virtually all the prejudice against the Negro will crumble before the achievements of the Negro artist.
ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING points of the article is Mr. Johnson's observation of the silent influence which the Negro has always exerted upon American life. Though Mr. Johnson confines his article to the Negro in art, that silent influence has been at work in every direction. The effect of the Negro on the economic system of this country, in slavery and freedom, is obvious.
LESS OBVIOUS, but equally as potent, is his influence upon the social and political history of America. The charm and distinction of the old Southern aristocracy, so different from the hustling aggressiveness of Northerners, was made possible by slave labor. In politics, the Southern espousal of the low tariff was directly due to slave labor. Not only the Civil War, but the Mexican War was caused by the slavery question; and the whole political policy of the South still rests upon the Negro. As to Southern mcrals, comment is unnecessary. In education, especially in science and history, the South is blinded by its racial preconceptions. The Negro is like a shadow—you can't Isege him.

The names of the authors are not unknown in Negro literary circles and it is not the first year that Dorothy West and Eugene Gordon have had recognition in the anthologies, but their appearance is guaranty that their good work is not accidental.

Is the 18th Amendment an Experiment?
An American's Travel Troubles
WHEN Senator Borah sent out a questionnaire to the several Presidential candidates on the Republican ticket. Secretary Hoover replied that this was a noble experiment and should be worked out constructively. This statement did not create any genuine enthusiasm among ardent prohibitionists. Indeed, his meaning is not yet clear after four months of campaign discussion. The problem of prohibition had passed through numerous experimental stages before the Eighteenth Amendment was determined upon as the fixed and final policy. In addition, local opposition, state disapproval and state prohibition have all been tried, found wanting and reflected.
The Constitution should contain only basic and fundamental principles. The states may experiment with laws and regulations. Indeed, the Federal government may experiment with statutory laws, but not with constitutional principles. After exhausting all the resources of human wisdom, our best judgment for the time may have to be modified in the light of new situations and conditions.
The only amendment written into the Constitution as a deliberate experiment was the Fourth Amendment, which purposefully enforced the states, lately in rebellion, to grant the franchise to the recently emancipated slaves. When this experiment failed, the Fifteenth Amendment was added as a permanent remedy of the evil at which the legislators had already aimed. The
LAST summer Mrs. Agatha Jones Lawson, of Philadelphia, and Mrs. Maude Walker, teacher at the Weaver School, Dayton, O., hired an automobile to make a tour of several countries of Europe, and I volunteered my services as guide. Together we visited six countries, a distance of several thousand miles. All of the countries I had visited before, except Austrian, and had written of them for readers of The Amsterdam News. I had seen them, however, by train, missing most of their beauties and also much of their ugliness, which, by the way, are mostly social.
For instance, in writing about Italy, I had said that the Northern Italian was a superior type to the Southern one, thus helping to maintain the popular belief. Now, after a trip by auto right down to the toe of the long boot, which is Italy, and up again, my views have been considerably modified. Once more the lesson has been brought home to me that the things we say and write about are greatly influenced by what we have heard others about them. In short, that if our goal is to learn the truth of things we would be far off ninety-nine times out of a hundred if we had never read about them, but had gone to see them for ourselves, which, alas, is most of the time impossible.
Having engaged the car for our trip, the next essential was the getting of the visas. And then the fun began, as they say in the comics. "Stay-at-homes" think they are living in a free world, but the fact is that as things now stand each man is a prisoner in his own country. If he thinks he isn't let him try to get out without going through red tape that drives him almost crazy. We Americans boast of our liberty, but before an American can get out of his own country he must hand over $10 to the State Department or stay in, unless he wishes to go to Canada and probes there. If he wishes to leave these countries, he will have to pay the $10 just the same. That sum is for a passport, which is about as useful and as necessary as another nose on your face. Before the war one could go anywhere without passport or

visas, but the world fought 'for more freedom, with the result that, as I said, each man is a prisoner in his own land unless he is able to pay to get out. They have to pay from fifty to sixty times more than any other people on earth. A British passport is good for five years, with visas that will take one all over the world, the United States included, costs $12. The French and other pass-

ports cost even less, something like 40 cents. The American one, which is printed on paper which certainly does not cost even the last named sum, costs $10.
And there is an additional tax of $10 for almost every country the American visits. That is, if an American were to visit all the countries of Europe, you would have nothing like $80, while the Frenchman or Englishman or other European would pay about 75 cents. A British passport and visa taking one into every country of Europe, with perhaps the exception of Russia, costs exactly $2.
On my first trip to Europe there was on the same boat with me a colored British subject and, while he paid out $1.25 for passports and visits to three countries, the visit to countries, with passports, cost me $30. Verily, that was "payrollism!"
Library Notes
Miss Rose Ernestine, librarian of the 1838 street branch of the Public Library, has adopted a new plan. On Tuesday of each week the new books will be placed on a special shelf and held until Saturday morning. This will afford the readers an opportunity to look over the books before they circulate. Reserves may be left for any books which have a special appeal and which patrones desire to read as soon as possible. Some of the books having special interest this week are as follows: "The Marriage of the Moslem World," by Harry Frank. The great traveler who writes so entertainly of the things he sons. "The Marriage Crisis," by Ernest R. Gruves, Mr. Groves says that marriage and the home do not need substitutes, but a social
with every hasty reform which the heated temper of the people may for the time being deem worthwhile.
But the Eighteenth Amendment is not an experiment. It expresses the genuine purpose of the people of the United States to put an end to the evil of intemperance. The people who believe in prohibition as a principle have no idea of tempering with this final expression of their conviction. To them, it is a moral issue, no more to be modified than the thirteenth Amendment of slaving slavery, or Fifteenth or Nineteenth Amendments for forbidding race and sex as qualifications for the suffrage. In this view, it is not an experiment to be worked out constructively, but a fixed principle to be enforced effectively.
It is indeed unfortunate that this amendment was passed under stress and - strain of war; otherwise, the American electorate might have given it full and unconstrained approval. But the deed has been done! The majority of the American people believe that it is a righteous deed, and never consent to its unbinding. This prosecution will have to be underpinned by a reaffirmation of public sentiment. Whatever uncertainty may have been or may be entertained as to the firm attitude towards this amendment must now be impressively resented.
Unfortunately, the recent election did not lead to any clear and decisive attitude. One side looked upon the Eighteenth Amendment as a noble experiment to be dealt with, and the other regarded the experiment as a dismal failure to be discarded and something else substituted in its place. The heat of the com-
The costs and inconveniences of passports and visas, to which Americans only are subjected, is one great ache to tourists and others, many of whom have never heard about them until they are ready to leave. It certainly does not increase respect for American citizenship to find one so disorientated against abroad.
Of course, the protest against these taxes on travel will awaken little sympathy in the minds of the "stay-at-homes." People who have the money to travel deserve what they have to put up with. Nevertheless, all these are but signs of the serfism toward which the American public head. Since the American public been a definite downward movement toward Russian carism in America. The people are losing more, and yet more, of their rights—are drifting into the hands of a few, just as they did into hands of a certain few in Europe in medieval times, as the Medicis, Hapsburgs, Hohenzollern, who finally became the rulers of the nation. Rome began as a free republic and one of the most hideous of despotisms. History repeats itself.
As the passport is good only for two years and the visa for one year, all manner of complications arise. Let's say, for instance, one is in England, where he has paid $10 to enter. He goes to France, where he has also paid another $10. His English visa is good for a year but, should his passport expire after, say, he has spent three months in England, he must pay $20 to re-enter England; that is, $10 for a passport and $10 for another visa.
In going on this auto trip it took me two full days to get the visa, after which I certainly felt like pronouncing a blessing on somebody, not to speak of having to hand out an exorbitant sum to the various countries for that which the people of other nationalities were getting, in most cases, for nothing. Experience, however, is important. I am a very valuable idea. I am going up a government of my own, get a rubber stamp and collect $10 each time I bring it down on the paper.
The fault, I understand, lies entirely with the State Department, which charges the people of these countries $10 for a visa to enter America, and they get by charging Americans the same. However, not all the countries retaliate: Belgium, the freest country in Europe, situation that gives them a better chance to function.

SPECIAL ARTICLES
paign has left the American mind in a confused condition. One thing is perfectly clear. The Eighteenth Amendment cannot be effectively enforced in the temper where the people find themselves after election. There has been engendered and bitter antagonistic feeling when too extensive and widespread to contemplate effective enforcement. Mr. Smith developed a powerful and influential body of hostile feeling and purpose against the entitlement of the law, while Mr. Hoover's attitude was merely negative so far as its moral meaning is concerned. Hoover made no friends for the principle of prohibition. His evident purpose to keep a firm hold upon the wet Republican support in the East when he put up plague him when he attempts to provision into effective operation. He will have ten obstacles where Mr. Coolidge had one.
Unless the real friends of prohibition in all parties and from all sections persist in stirring up and asserting a compelling prohibition sentiment, the Eighteenth Amendment will be eminently threatened with the fate of complaisant nullification as has befallen the Fourteenth Amendment. This is a moral question, and not a partisan one. The opponents have the same right to strive for the liberalization of the amendment and the operation as the proponents have to uphold. In last analysis, it resolves itself into what the American people want. By the empathetic arousal of a righteous public opinion we obviate further tinkering with the Constitution as Mr. Smith advised throughout the campaign. In no other way can this be done.
rope, does not even ask a visa nor does Switzerland. Germany charges Americans nothing, and at the border treats them with the finest courtesy, both in the matter of passports and the customs. When we arrived at the German border the official literally bowed us in. He glanced at the passports of the two ladies, never permitted me to get mine even out of the ticket, and our mere word that was nothing but suitable was sufficient for him. It also understood, therefore, why the German people were reported as being indignant at the alleged harsh treatment of the passengers of the Zeppelin recently.
The next most courteous officials we met were in Austria, which charges a visa fee. My passport was looked at, and stamped, but the word of the ladies that they had passports was sufficient. The most rigid and exacting of all the countries was Italy. There we had to take down our things and tell many whys and wherefores, to not speak of our being stopped at the entrance to almost every Italian town from the border and back to tell whether we had anything dutiful. We were stopped not less than forty times, but more of that later. England is also a hard country for Americans to enter, but nothing nearly as hard as for Englishmen to enter America. This difference must be noted; however: Americans go to England to spend money—very few earn anything that they need, very few Englishmen come to America to spend money, and nearly all to earn it.
All other European countries, except Russia, and Turkey, seem content to stamp your passport and collect your money, but at the English Consulate they wish to know a bit of your family history, and there are s. verbal forms to be filled out, "How long are you going to stay?" "Are you going to return to the States," etc., all of which, with the digging into your personal effects, you feel is the highest form of impertinence.
After two months of this sort of thing, how one longs for the good old days when men could rove over the earth, his only passport being his strong right arm. Today he must pay out his hard-earned cash for a hit of paper, with which, if he hasn't money, he is free to starve like any citizen of the country in which he is.

- The North Harlem Medical Society
IFEEL that the North Harlem Medical Society serves an invaluable purpose in our community, and still there are many who know very little of its existence. Until four years ago the physicians, dentists and pharmacists had a common organization, but the rapid increase in the number of these professional men made it necessary for each group to work out its own affairs.
Any graduate in medicine having a license to practice in the State of New York is eligible for membership. Meetings are held once a month, with a definite program established. Because of the high standards demanded of the medical man of today, the ever-increasing amount of new material in medicine to be assimilated, and the local health problems to be adjusted with the aid of the municipal and other organizations, a society such as this finds plenty to do.
Aside from the papers and discussions presented by members, this society invites as guests several of the physicians anywhere in some subject in medicine or surgery from one or more of the
He worked hard through the many stages of the society's existence and had the satisfaction of seeing it grow from a membership of not more than 12 to one of about 100. Out of appreciation for his unselfish spirit and untiring efforts, the society raised a fund of $100 as an expression of gratitude and esteem.
Aside from the scientific phase of this work, an association of this kind fosters spirits of unity and professional good-will that an hardly surmised by any group of physicians anywhere. We specially need this fellowship if we would overcome the ignorance and distrust in our very mildst.
In conjunction with the North Harlem there are two study clubs, The Howard Reading Club and the Cosmopolitan Medical Club. At these meetings the medical topics of the day are taken up in detail each member being responsible for some phase of the subject under Harlem today is growing rapidly; it is a city within a city. We have problems which are peculiar to us and, in order to cope with them, we must have standards of efficiency commensurate with our task in every field of endeavor. It is to be kno'n that the medical profession in Harlem recognizes the magnitude of its work and is employing itself in a manner to render the highest type of service, as follows: Louis T. Wright; president; Jose Cesteros, vice-president; F. Theodore Reid, president; Harold Ellis, secretary.

TAKE out your memorandum pad and make a note of this book for Christmas. You will surely want it for the child in your household or for one in your friend's. It's a delightful recital of folk tales, entertaining to all children, but especially to those who are descendants of Africans. The stories are not as absorbing as those told by Uclee Remus, but they bring with them a tang of the earth, "a primitive strength and an oddly twisted humor," as the publisher says on the jacket. Moreover, they have delightful illustrations, weird pictures of animals (the spider with his great eyes is one of the best) and stirring, artistic sketches of the natives. A lovely book, that one longs at once to read aloud to an imaginative child.
The folk tales are those of the Haussa people of North Nigeria, West Africa, a few degrees north of the equator. Here, as the Foreword tells us, are "hot, steaming jungles, broad, burnt savannah lands that, with the rains, blossom into glorious green again, and still she is charming.
The stories are about the spider, who is the villain of the piece, the magpie, the hyena, the lion, the squirrel, the ram, the frog and others. There is the beautiful daughter of the emir who shall wed him who hoes the greatest area in one day, and the clever Chamelone who uses the harter knife is tool and wins the princes. "A spider is the reason the hartbeest always tears in his eyes." There is the that stole the egg and hances may fly only by night lost the hawk and the kite punish her, and there is Solomon with his wives, and the eagle who shows Solomon his folly. The stories are simply told, one would find that they would interest a child of five or six. And the grown person who turns over the pages will, I feel sure, never

The Black Man's Burden
THREE centuries of cries toll
groans beat thru my brain.
Three centuries of toll and sweet
for others' gain.
Of burdens carried thru uphill,
desert, plain.
Cruel burdens, cuttle and
mess, muscle strain.
Tomorrow, yesterday, today
toll and toll in vain.
Three centuries of cries and
groans—monotonous refrain.
—GEORGIE LITTLE.

Any graduate in medicine having a license to practice in the State of New York is eligible for membership. Meedings are held once a month, with a definite program slated. Because of the high standards demanded of the medical man of today, the ever-increasing amount of new material in medicine to be assimilated, and the need for training to be not just with the aid of the hospital and other organizations, a society such as this finds plenty to do.
Aside from the papers and discussions presented by members, this society invites as guests several times a year an authority on some subject in medicine or surgery from one or more of the members of the North Harlem are selected in small groups every summer and for six weeks these groups do special work in the large hospitals, under the direction of the New York Tuberculosis Association and the New York Academy of Medicine. The Negro members of the society of the New York Harlem are午休 day to day all the experience which a big city hospital affords, are all members of the society. The growing confidence which the more intelligent folk are beginning to show towards the Negro practitioner in Harlem is founded on the sheer realization manifested not only as a result of a fundamental preparation, but through successful competition.
Our late vice-president, Dr. E. Elliott Rawlins, was the oldest active member of the organization.
about to an imaginative child.
The folk tales are those of the Haussa people of North Nigeria, West Africa, a few degrees north of the equator. Here, as the Foreword tells us, are "hot, steaming jungles, broad, burnt savannah lands that, with the rains, blossom into glorious green again, and mountains that, rocky and trecovered, lean over thin red-mud-walled and straw-thatched villages. Here lives the Haussa people, some thirteen million of them, traders, tillers of the soil, cattle owners, and the savage tribes of a still older Africa. Black people, all of them. Some are nature-worshippers. Many, and these Haussas, are Mahammedans, and in their folk tales mingle the older curious man and the fable people of the Kongo that for instance is Solomon—Sullman now—a black man like themselves and, as they are, living in a mudhouse with a mud floor as they have."
The Haussas are traders and have often crossed the wide desert, and their contact with Eastern civilization is likely to make their tales, as recounted in this book, pleasing to modern readers. They have a sophistication that the African folk tales that travellers have collected for us lack. Then, too, Erick Berry is a clever writer, and while she tells stories as she has heard them around the evening fire, the story teller in the center, the men and women crouched upon their heels, she puts in them something of herself. If she would let
"HEREDITY MONGERS"
RIDICULED IN ARTICLE
"Heredity mongers" who claim superiority for blond Nordics are sharply ridiculed by George A. Dorsey, author of "Why We Behave Like Human Beings," writing in the November issue of "Plain Talk" on "Race and Civilization Specialists."
Mr. Dorsey traces the development of the race superiority theories from Count Gobineau and the successive emphasis on "Aryan." "Teutonic" and "Nordic" Of Madison Grant, author of "The Passing of the Great Race," Mr. Dorsey writes that he knows many "facts" unknown to anthropologists.
