OU BOIS CONTENDS THAT CORRESPONDENT SPREAD FALSEHOOD
Writer of Story Relies on Notes Taken at Meeting-Also Hints at Disagreement Between District and National N. A. A. C. P. Offices
ASHINGTON, Jan. 7.—Charging that a release sent out Capital News Service on December 22 "spread a series of shoeds to the world, without any attempt at investiga Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of The Crisis, has sent a to Carl Murphy, editor of the Afro-American, which gave
A prominence to the report.
Poubis had been quoted as saying his addresses before the Washington birth of the N. A. A. C. P, that "indicements are given to Negro newsmen either as charity or a sort of small." The correspondent in question "that the Crisis editor was merely quoted and hints at friction seen the Washington and New York acts of the association.
What I did say was this," Dr. Duwrote Murphy: "That in the past people thought of advertising in real papers as charity, or a sort of small, but that now the Crisis' other papers were endeavoring to colored business men realize that mirroring was an investment which does not only direct returns in pursuits but indirect returns through the theory of repetition.
That so far as subscribers were concerned, the Crisis might lose all of its subscribers in a city like Washington still, like all other periodicals, small loss in its income, because the one of periodicals depended more on advertising."
Pelham Wrote Story
He wrote of that story, Robert A. Poubis, not only took full notes of the thing, he asserts, but called upon seven prominent citizens and writers ahead to verify his account of what Poubis actually said.
Dr. Polham, a newspaper man of long experience, said he went to the meeting at the Exhibition of Neval Thomas' assists, who urged a full attendance in dispensation of an attempt at public enclosure of Mr. Thomas at the offices of the New York office. I was therefore not surprised at the office appearance of both Mr. Johnson and Mr. Toulbis, he continued, "and may account for the latter's unpleasant comments. I took full notes all that I encountered at this meeting it is not surprising that Mr. DuFols but cut or disgruntled about the business with which his remarks been taken. I discussed the language used by Dr. Boss with others, who agree with in my interpretation of his unfortunate remarks.

Operation of Dunbar Apartments Clearly Looks Like a "Family Affair"
Four Out of Five Members Resident Manager's Family on Payrolls of Corporation — Combined Salaries Last March Said to Have Been $18,460
The operation of the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments, Inc., 2588 Seventh avenue, built by John D. Rockefeller Jr. at a cost of $3,000,000, is quite a family affair from the managerial standpoint, as revealed by the following alleged salary list as of March, 1928:
Declares Record Cos. Insult Race
Speaker Says Offensive Titles and Pictures Are Obnoxious
CHICAGO, Jan. 7. (ANP).—That Negro purchasers of phonograph records should boycott those record companies which publish records with offensive titles, was the opinion expressed here Friday by Dr. Herbert A. Turner, president of the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
"My attention has been called to a record published by the Columbia Company." continued Dr. Turner.
"The title of this record is 'Mysterious Coon, What's His Racket.'
The explanation copy, which accompanies this headline, repeats the use of the word "coon," and the use of a picture of a ludicrous figure is an insult to the intelligence of the people to whom the advertising appeal is made. This advertisement and others similar to it, published by the Columbia people and others, show the low regard which white record makers have for colored people.
"Such titles are not only belittling to the Negro's sense of pride, but they give other persons who read colored newspapers and such obnoxious advertisements a poor opinion of the taste of the race, its habits and the quality of its thought.
"We cannot afford to be black-guarded before the world for the sake of a few white men who choose to make money at the expense of our racial pride and integrity. The most effective way for Negroes to combat this evil practice is to cause to purchase such records."

following alleged salary list as
Roscoe Conkling Bruce, resident manager, $12,000 yearly; Mrs. Clara Burrill Bruce, his wife, assistant resident manager, $3,600; Miss Clara Bruce, assistant to her mother, $1,560; Burrill Bruce, a son, assistant to the personnel manager, $1,300, and R. C. Bruce Jr., formerly assisting in the operation of the playground and now in Paris, $1,300.
This make a total in yearly salaries of $18,460 for the Bruce family as now employed.
To this figure may be added the salaries of Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Coleman, cashier and assistant, whose earnings at the same time were said to be $1,560 and $1,300, respectively, bringing the grand total up to $21,520.
The friendship said to exist between the Bruces and the Colemans is said to be close enough almost to consider them relatives of the Bruces. There may be other connections of this kind, but they have not yet been pointed out.
Thus is revealed for the first time the pains that have been taken to place a family and its close friends at the head of the project.
The Bruces are co-operative tenant-subscribers of a seven-room apartment.
This condition of affairs obviously portends subversion of the rights or reasonable demands of the tenant-subscribers, who foot the bills, in the event of a dispute between them and the Rockefeller interests. The Bruces could not afford, for the safety of their $18,460 in salaries, to contend strongly against Mr. Rockefeller in behalf of the tenant-owners. As resident-manager, Mr. Bruce is supposed to be the representative of both the tenant-owners and Mr. Rockefeller.
Another important angle to the Bruce family rule of the Dunbar project is that it denies opportunity to outside persons to gain employment and experience in the operation of such an undertaking.
Several of the tenants feel that any inefficiency or mismanagement on the part of the present managers and their friends would be concealed. If not condoned, "Are all of those subordinate to Mr. Bruce holding their positions solely on their merit?" they ask.

Dr. Godfrey Nurse, 185 West 135th street, has been suspended from his post of adjunct in surgery at Harlem Hospital with recommendations for his permanent dismissal, The Amsterdam News learned Monday.
Hospital authorities and Dr. Nurse declined to give any statement on the incident. Dr. Rudolf Rapp, white, superintendent of the institution, stated Monday that any official action would be forthcoming later from the board of trustees of Bellevue Hospital, with which Harlem is allied.
He did say, however, that "certain recommendations" have been made to the board and will be finally decided" by that body. Dr. Nurse admitted his "dismissal but refused to give any reason for the action.

Girl to Face Homicide Charge in Court Today
Faced by affidavits sworn Monday by four witnesses who charge that she was the aggressor, Sylvia Williams, 17, 162 West 131st street, will face Homelide Court today in the fatal stabbing of Major Clemens, 17, 202 West 130th street, Christmas night.
The affidavits, sworn before Joseph C. Morris, notary public, at 2138 Seventh avenue, were signed by Lacey Clark, 115 West 129th street; Harold Fleming, 165 West 129th street; James Helm, 40 West 129th street and James Hooper, 129 East 130th street. They refute the confession allegedly made to detectives by the girl stating that Clemens annoyed her at a dance and along the street until she stabbed him, as reported last week in the Amsterdam News.
The new version states that the youth was in a restaurant at 238 Lenox avenue eating with the quartet. Miss Williams came to the door and called him outside. Helm and Hooper claim to have seen the fatal attack by the girl, while the other two assert that the wounds were inflicted just before they reached the outside.

PROBE LAUNCHED OF SAILORS INVOLVED IN SUBWAY ATTACKS
Brooklyn Commandant Seeks Guilty Whites Who Assaulted Negroes — Victim Depicts Brutality in Letter to The Amsterdam News
Investigations of the personnel on three warships, following attacks made by United States sailors upon Negroes in the local subways, were under way today, following the presentation of evidence to Rear Admiral Louis R. de Steiguer, commandant of the Third Naval District, Brooklyn, by officials of the National Association for Advancement of Colored People.
Following his plea of guilty to a charge of bigamy, Dr. Milton Elimber, alleged nephew of Prince J. E. Dino Akwa of Yaounde, German East Africa, and a medical student at Columbia University, was sentenced on Dec. 11 to an indeterminate term in the penitentiary by Judge Max Levine in Part V of General Sessions, it was disclosed last week.
According to District Attorney Garrison, the immigration officials here are seeking evidence upon which to deport him.
The doctor's domestic troubles began soon after his marriage on Jan. 13, 1928, at Liberty Hall to Mrs. Mayme L. T. De Mena, international organizer of the Universal Improvement Association and special assistant to E. B. Knox, Marcus Garvey's personal representative of the association in America.
Mrs. Valentina Charles, 250 West 125th street, claimed that Dr. Ebimber was already married to her and had not been divorced. She accused him of having deserted her and their child shortly after their marriage in South America four years ago. She traced him to New York just about the time he entered upon his second matrimonial venture. Dr. Ebimber was represented by Attorney John B. Thorne, 101 West 135th street, while wife number one was represented by Attorney Lemie L. George, 200 West 135th street.
The probe was begun by the commandant upon orders from Curtis D. Wilbur, Secretary of the Navy, after the N. A. A. C. P. and individuals who were attacked laid their complaints before him. The Navy chief instructed De Steigler to ferret out the offenders for punishment.
As a result, the U. S. S. Texas, now in drydock, members of the crew of which beat two men in a Brooklyn subway train December 21, and the U. S. S. Arkansas and U. S. S. Richmond, now at sea, are being combed for the attackers. Members of the Texas crew injured a man and woman December 31 in Times-Square when forty police were needed to quell the disturbance.
James Weldon Johnson and Walter White, secretary and assistant secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., were in conference with the commandant Friday after mail and telegraphic correspondence with Secretary Wilbur.
The Navy Yard head assured them that immediate action would be taken on the complaints and attempts to forestall any further attacks would be made.
George W. Clark, 2346 East Fifteenth street, Brooklyn, today, in a letter to The Amsterdam Naws, narrates the dangerous experience he faced with a liquor-maddened group of Negro-hating sailors. Clark is a clerk in the city civil service. He tells of being struck by one of a quartet of tars, who informed him that they did not like "niggers." Attempting to leave the train at 125th street because of the rowdyism, he was kicked off by the spokesman of the prejudice-folded group. Clark called for police protection and two detectives were sent to the station, but they were unable to locate the rowdies. Later he went to the Brooklyn Navy Yard and made his complaint to the lieutenant-commandant of the base and was directed to the captain of the S. S. Arkansas, the ship from which the sailors had come. The yeomen were brought out, but he did not identify the attackers in the group. Clark was also given permission to search the ship. This was also futile. Clark has made a formal protest to the Secretary of the Navy. The N. A. A. C. P. is requesting persons who have witnessed the attacks to call at its offices at 69 Fifth avenue and present their evidence.

First Dixie Graduate
NASHVILLE, Tenn., Jan. 7.—Fisk University today was laying plans for a faculty apartment house and the creation of additional endowment as a result of the bequest of $100,000 made by James Dallas Barrus, druggist and first of his race to receive a college degree in the South. Mr. Barrus died December 5 from heart attack at the age of eighty-two.
The estate includes eighty-five houses here and stocks and bonds. Graduating from Fisk with an A.D. degree, the benefactor taught school at first and later worked as a surveyor in New Hampshire. Later he started a drug store here and made profitable investments.

ington, repeated her charges of race discrimination against the Slovenia Maternity Hospital, where she was ousted from a post-graduate course, it is said, because of her color.
"Two great races living together," said Mr. Tuttle, "should learn to carry on in peace, honor and mutual respect. . . . I cannot understand, through these instances, what slightest difference it would make to a fever stricken brow if the hand brought it water was black or white.
Mr. Tuttle found agreement with the remarks of Mr. Pickens concerning the lynching when he killed. "When white people or black people force a man to live as an animal, in the sight of God the ultimate responsibility is not on him but on those who force him to live under such conditions."
The white and colored men in the N. A. A. C. P. who have "clasped hands across the yawning chasm" of race and consecrated themselves to solving the problem "makes a light of optimism shine upon the whole situation." Mr. Tuttle said.
"You are not seeking any special advantages or dispensations," he continued, "but solely the opportunity to preserve your own self-respect and to command the respect of others. . . . You have a right to justice, not just half-way, but full and complete justice as an American citizen. All religions and all races stood shoulder to shoulder In the great adventure, the World War, where they were made equals, Mr. Tuttle said, and today that same spirit of brotherhood is needed for the pursuits of peace.
Mr. Tuttle also recounted the heroism of the Negro men upon the filleted steamship Vestris. In the Federal Court he fought charges of cowardice against the men while the Government investigation was in progress.
"In places where valor is concerned there never has been and never will be a question of color. . . . When people were being taken out of the water I don't suppose anyone asked whether the rescuer was white or colored."
Praises Delany
Speaking of Assistant U. S. Attorney Hubert T. Delany, Mr. Tuttle said Delany had handled cases as well as his white assistants. Robert W. Bargall, another executive, opened and closed the meeting with prayers. Others seated on the rostrum were: Mrs. Florence Kelly, white, Assistant U. S. Attorney Delany, Nannie Burroughs, the Rev. George E. Haynes, Isadore Martin of Philadelphia, and James Welford of Philadelphia, executive secretary, Walter F. Wisham field secretary was in the audience.
A collection of $245.21 was taken up to aid the work of the organization. One $500 life membership was also recorded.

Places in 'Little Cabinet' May Be Only Recognition Given by Administration
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 7.—With the return of President-elect Hoover, speculation has been renewed regarding rewards for party services in the late campaign.
The highest ambitions of the practical Negro politicians reach only to a place in the "Little Cabinet," composed of assistant Cabinet officers, and the ministership to Haiti. Such places were once given to colored Republicans in recognition of their party service.
In the Taft administration William H. Lewis of Boston served as assistant attorney general and Henry W. Furniss of Bridgeport, Conn., was minister to Haiti. They wore the last men of their race to fill these posts.

The name of Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, is frequently mentioned in connection with the ministership to Haiti. The post pays $10,000 a year. Since the administration of Woodrow Wilson and the occupation of the Haitian Republic by American marines it has been filled by a white man.
Efforts to secure a place in the little Cabinet will be directed at an assistant attorney generalship.
John R. Hawkins is mentioned for the office of the Register of the Treasury. This is the place that it is said the late President Warren G. Harding promised to the late Charles A. Cottrill, but gave it to a white man. A persistent fight was made by the late Henry Lincoln Johnson, Robert R. Church and Perry W. Howard in behalf of Mr. Cottrill, but President Harding refused to name him for the office.
Judge James A. Cobb will retain his place on the bench of the municipal court of the District of Columbia. Whether Arthur G. Froe, the Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, will be able to retain his place is uncertain. Mr. Froe is from West Virginia. He has served nearly eight years in this office. Charles E. Mitchell of Institute, W. Va., is being frequently mentioned for a Federal appointment and the retention of Mr. Froe may depend upon whether the West Virginia congressional delegation will support him on an appointment for Mr. Mitchell. Across this program lies the shadow of Robert R. Church of Memphis, Teen. Mr. Church was bitterly opposed to the men who handled the campaign.
There will likely be another angle to the fight for rewards. The group headed by Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, will make its bid for recognition, Albon L. Hosey, secretary of Tuskegee Institute was secretary of the executive committee of the Negro voters' division. The chief aspirant of the Moton group is likely to be Homer G. Phillips of St. Louis, Mo. He wants a place in the Department of Justice. President-elect Hoover may decide these conflicting challenges by giving recognition each contest group. That appears to be the easiest way out for him. The Scott Hawkins group served in the campaign. Dr. Moton won the confidence of Mr. Hoover in the Mississippi flood rehabilitation work. Mr. Church will have to be reckoned with.

obsession of unreasoning jealousy,
her husband said. She was
constantly haunted with the idea that
some other woman would alienate
his affections. Such fears were
wholly unfounded, he said.
During a period of acute despondency on New Year's Day, Mrs. Pendleton took a spread from the bed and wrapped it around her and over her head like a shawl. She went into the kitchen, turned on all five jets of the gas stove and sat down, leaning her head over the stove.
This was the position in which she was found dead by Carl Blades, a close friend of Pendleton, when he came home at 6:20 p. m. The smell of gas had directed Blades to the kitchen. He shut off the gas, raised all the windows and phoned for the police.
Patrolman Raymond Robinson of the West 135th street station responded. Dr. Crowley was summoned from Columbus Hospital. He announced that Mrs. Pendleton had been dead for two hours. The medical examiner was notified. When Pendleton made his customary 'phone call prior to coming home from work, he was told that something unusual had happened, but at the very worst he only saw his wife had probably injured herself during one of her periods of depression. He was shocked when he learned the truth. "I have lost a wonderful wife. She was a fine woman and a most loving companion." Pendleton said. The couple were to have celebrated their wedding anniversary the following day, having been married since 1916.
Funeral services were held Friday at the funeral parlor of James W. H. Witherspoon Jr., 134 West 131st street, at 1:30 p.m. bn. the Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor of Grace Congregational Church, officiating. Interment was at St. Michael's Cemetery. Relatives at first thought of taking providence. R. I., for burial in the family plot. Mrs. Pendleton was at Bail River, Mass. As Miss Nelle Johnson, she was graduated from the Frederick Douglass School for Nurses at Philadelphia in 1915. She was married at Providence, R. I., the following year. Immediately after her graduation, however, she practiced nursing at Newport, R. I., for three years. She and her husband came to New York in 1918.

Special Juries to Try Murder Cases
District Attorney Asks Panel for Accused Harlem Men
With his motion granted last Wednesday for special juries to try two Harlem men charged with first-degree murder District Attorney Banon is pushing plans for giving the two trials early in the present court term, which began yesterday. The two accused men, James R. Keellung, 2 West 138th street, and William Gentile, 8 West 134th street, have entered not guilty pleas.
The district attorney's motion was granted by Judge Mulqueen in Part 1 of General Sessions.
Gentile is accused of killing Fritz Meine, white, 954 Boulevard, Astoria, on October 21. The white man is believed to have been lured to 8 West 132d street and killed in an attempted robbery. Gentile was arrested by Officer Eddington of Thirteen-A precinct. Counsel has been appointed by the People and Benjamin Shallack, Samuel Feldman and Walter J. Df Donato, 225 Broadway, will defend Gentile. All are white.
Following a period of observation at Bellevue Hospital, Keeling, who is charged with using a knife, sword and razor to kill his wife in a jealous frenzy, will possibly make insanity his defense. It is believed. He has continued to show indifference

The case of Herbert S. Boulin, well-known private detective who specializes in divorce raids, 110 East 125th street, against Alexander C. MacNulty, Deputy Secretary of State and commissioner of licenses for detectives, was heard on an order of certiorari in the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, first department, before Justices Dowling, Finch, McAvoy, Martin and O'Malley on Thursday afternoon. Boulin, the petitioner, was represented by Attorney Richard E. Carey, 2376-Seventh avenue. MacNulty, the respondent, was represented by Robert P. Beyer, Deputy Attorney General, 51 Chambers street.
Boulin, through his attorney, contended that Commissioner MacNulty had no right to withhold his license except upon proof that he was guilty as charged. The charges, having been dismissed, the Corumissioner could not refuse the license on any other charge whatsoever, he said. Last August Boulin complained to Commissioner MacNulty, charging discrimination, citing the case of William J. Burns' Detective Agency, which the commissioner allowed to continue in operation, although Mr. Burns had been convicted and sentenced for a Federal crime.

While Brother Is Held
James Wood, 26, white, 565 West 148th street, charged with holding up and robbing Cecil Ferguson, real estate man, 400 West 151st street, $168 and heading him into unconsciousness, was held without bail for the Grand Jury when arraigned Friday before Magistrate Smith in Heights Court.

Captain Noble of 16th Transferred
Succeeded by Captain Boli,
Formerly Stationed in
Brooklyn
In the police shakeup by the new Police Commissioner, Grover A. Whalen, few were more surprising than the transfer of Captain John J. Noble from his command at the West 135th street station, to the Twenty-third precinct in the Bronx, Friday morning.
The reasons for the change were not made public. Rumors, however, flew thick and fast when the fact became known.
Captain Noble has been replaced by Captain Archio Boll from the Eleventh Division in Brooklyn where he was. supervisor of patrolmen in uniform. He has just recently been promoted to the rank of captain, it is said.
The only other transfer from the Sixteenth precinct was that of Patrolman George L. Scott, white, chauffeur, to the Nineteenth Division, Automobile Bureau.
SEGER The First Oke
THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN
Lester A. Walton, 2816 Eighth avenue, former publicity head for the Smith-for-President Colored League and member of the editorial staff of the New York World, has lost the decision in an action filed against him in Supreme Court by Christopher F. Meyer, 3429 Third avenue, and his apartment house at 46 West 13th street will be sold at auction January 17. The decision was handed down by Referee Matthew P. Doyle, when Meyer published claims of $12,008 against the property. Costs totaling $45.76 were granted by the court in the judgment. The auction will be conducted at a salesroom at 56 Vesey street.
Mr. Walton is known as one of leaders in journalism, being one of few Negroes writing for white dailies. He is possibly best known for his signed feature stories of Negro achievement in the Sunday columns of his paper. Last year he was honored with a master of arts degree by Lincoln University for his work as a publicist.
Liberian President Praises U. S. Friendship
MONROVLA, Liberia, Jan. 5. — A tribute to American friendship for Liberia was a feature of the annual message of President Charles D. B. King of Liberia to the Legislature. Speaking of the friendly relations that had at all times existed between the United States and Liberia, he said:
"From the foundation of this republic the attitude of the United States has been that of a true friend and protector to this country in many difficulties."
President King pictured the progress of country during the last year as "phenomenal" with revenues steadily rising, passing the million dollar mark each month during the summer and continuing to rise. Road building would be an important part of public activities during the year, he indicated, adding to many miles of new roads built during the last year.
PROBATIONARY OFFICER
ACCUSED IN THEFT
William H. Glover, 30, of 436 Rockaway avenue, Brooklyn, a probationary patrolman, and Wallace Johnson, 38, of 2000 Fulton street, were arrested Wednesday night by Detective Frank Casey, white, in connection with the theft of $65 from six card players at the home of John M. Rydeau, white, 37 Underhill avenue, early last Tuesday. Both men were arraigned in the Flatbush Court on Thursday.
New York Artists Predominate At International House Exhibit
Opening Thursday with ninety-one pieces of work, the creations of thirty artists, eleven of whom are New Yorkers, a paintings and sculpture exhibit under the auspices of the Harmon Foundation and the Commission of Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches is on view at International House, 500 Riverside drive. The exhibit is open from eleven in the morning to nine-thirty each evening and will continue through January 15.
The works are some of those submitted in the fine arts in the William E. Harmon awards for distinguished achievement among Negroes. Prizes of a gold medal and $400 and a bronze medal and $100 have been made. An additional award of $250, contributed by an anonymous donor, has been made for the best individual piece of work at the exhibit.
Edward T. McDowell, C. A. Robinson and John E. Toodles. Judges of the award who also served on the admissions committee are: Charles A. Curran of the National Academy, Mrs. Meta Warick Fuller, Karl Illava and Edward Tilton.
A portrait by Archbald J. Motley Jr., entitled "The Octoberoon Girl," received particular commendation
Best Single Piece
A painting with its motif drawn from the spiritual "Swing Low, Sweet Charlot" by Malvin Gray Johnson, 32.202 West 140th street, New York, has been adjudged the best single piece of work in the display and granted a prize of $250. The prize is given by an anonymous individual interested in art.
The picture was painted with a palate knife. Mr. Johnson recently completed his study at the National Academy of Design and expects to take more advanced studies. He has another picture: "Over Harlem Rooftops." He was listed in the Harmon exhibit last year.
Unanimous in its decision, the jury gave special mention to the "Head of a Tortured Negro" by Richardn Harthe of Chicago. "Portrait of Jurge X" by John Wesley Hardrick of Indianapolis; "Character and Study" and "An Artist's Niece" by D. Norman Tillman of Youngstown, Ohio.

Edward T. McDowell, C. A. Robinson and John E. Toodles. Judges of the award who also served on the admissions committee are: Charles A. Curran of the National Academy, Mrs. Meta Warick Fuller, Karl Illava and Edward Tilton. A portrait by Archibald J. Motley Jr., entitled "The October Girl" received particular commendation from the judges in the first award. The artist has two other pictures at the exhibit, "The Picnic at the Grove" and "Mending Socks," a study of Motley's grandmother.
Palmer C. Hayden, Greenwich Village window washer and odd-job man, who received the Foundation's gold award in 1926 and has since been working in Europe, has two paintings in delicate shades of blue—"The Schooners" and "St. Servan." Hale Woodruff of Indianapolis, who the same year was granted the bronze award and who is also abroad, has three scenes in the exhibit, "Normandy Landscape," "Old Farmhouse in the Beauce Valley" and "Along the Eure at Chartree." Portraits predominate at the showing and among those of special interest is one of Dr. Henry Goddard Leach, editor of the Forum. This was done by O. Richard Reid, a New York artist.
The sculpture receiving special mention in the conferring of the bronze award is that of the bust of Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University. The artist, Mrs. May Howard Jackson, also has a study of a mulatto mother with a Negro baby, Sherman Jackson, and a suburban Sherman Jackson, and some smaller Richmond Barthe, a Chicago sculptor, has shown the "Head of a Tortured Negro," as well as the "full-sized figure of "A Tortured Negro."

Soap, either in the form of cakes or chips, should be used. If you care to do so, you may take one pound of soap shavings and three quarts of water to fire until the soap is dissolved and then put the soap solution in bottles and jars for future use.
Other helpful cleaning materials include ammonia, borax, caustic potash, caustic soda—but these are used principally in heavy cleaning; gasoline and benzene to dissolve grease and oil; oils like linseed and light material.
Directions for cleaning will be given in this column in next week's issue of The Amsterdam News.

Buffet style of serving is the only one to use for a large bridal reception. Let each lady's escort serve her and himself with a plate. In this way, with the help of the caterer's men, the confusion of getting refreshments to the guests will be lessened.
Why not try cutting baking powder biscuit dough with an oval cutter? This shape will add a note of attractiveness to the appearance of your menu. Butter the biscuits in the kitchen and serve them very hot.

After having had a happy Christmas season, the Girl Scouts are entering the New Year with Interest, enthusiasm and vigor to put their troops over the top.
There will be lots of fun this year, for there are so many more Girl Scouts. We have mentioned most troops, but there are some new ones at St. James' Presbyterian Church, Mt. Olivet Baptist Church and Metropolitan Baptist Church.
Don't forget swimming on Monday afternoons at the Y. W. C. A. We are going to have basketball, too. If you would like to play, see your captain or Miss Louise Parrott at the Urban League Building, 204 West 136th street.
Some of the troops are entering a song contest for all Girl Scout troops of Manhattan. Is yours? We can sing, you know. Mrs. Lulu Robinson Jones, one of the members of the Girl Scout Committee, promises to help us in this singing. We like that.
All out, Girl Scouts, to your troop meetings this week to help plan a snappy program for 1928.

WHEN a bishop emeritus takes courage and says, "In spite of tradition, prejudice and taste, I have been driven to the conclusion that the lid of silence must be wrenched off and the subject [sex education] treated in its fullness, as embodying facts of spiritual, physical, social and moral truth," we have surely reached a new day in education.
The Right Rev. William Lawrence of the Episcopal Church, speaking at the first of a series of Sunday public lectures at Harvard Medical School, said even more than the quoted paragraph. He believes that the best medical and educational movements seem to be, toward bringing the education down to the little child from three to nine years old—taught by his mother, as he has been taught other facts by her!
Picture the predicament of some "modest" mothers. Some of them have allowed 18 and 20-year-old sons and daughters to get their store of sex education from older boys and girls, men and women in the street. How could such mothers ever have nerve enough to talk to and teach children at the tender ages of three to nine?
The Negro's general education was neglected for a long long time. True enough, his sex education suffered along with his general education. And yet the time has arrived when Negro parents can help their children face life squarely and more courageously, but they must first realize that sex education plays a part in a successful and well-rounded life—T.E.B.
Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
Cages Versus Nets
YOUNG ladies, I firmly believe that there would be many more happy marriages if you spent your time in making cages rather than in making nets.
The main trouble with a net is that it isn't strong enough to catch, much less to hold, the strongest. A net is made of such things as "a gift of gab," good looks, smart clothes, cleverness and the ability to dance and entertain.
On the other hand, a cage is made of the most substantial. The power of the understanding a man's moods, which includes knowing, when to talk and when not to; and when to spend the evening at home and when to suggest going out; the ability to make as pleasant and as cheerful a home as is possible on hubby's income; the ability to be a good mother and a cheerful, loving wife.
It's not an easy task by any means, but where there's real love and a little common sense it isn't so hard and the result is worth the price, for a woman's happiness depends mostly on the success of the affairs of her heart.
Have all the net-like qualities that you want, but have them in addition to the cage-like ones.
Dear Egypty Ann:
In one of your columns you asked the husbands and wives to send in their New Year's resolutions. Well, I'm only a husband but here's my bit just the same.
I resolve to: (1) Show my wife who is the real boss in my house. (2) Sit at the dinner table in my shirt-sleeves. (3) To follow my wife on one of her frequent trips to the "hairdresser" (4) To refuse to take the part of a housemaid any longer.

Looking Your Best BY FANNETTE
JEWELRY can make or mar the appearance. I know a girl who is a lover of simple but good jewelry. As she hasn't much money, I often wondered how she could afford such a good quality of jewelry. She told me her plan and I believe it to be a mighty sensible one. I'll say right here, however, that she has an inherent taste for beauty and effect, which is invaluable to the well dressed woman.
This girl seldom buys jewelry. She is not the type to buy a fad simply because she wants something that is not likely to be seen on every other girl she meets. She knows what she wants a long time before she goes to buy it. She compares prices in the jewelry and department stores and having finally selected her store makes her purchase. During the past year she bought two pins, one a green gold and the other a sterling silver bar set with a few inexpensive but not cheap stones: two pairs of beads, one choker style crystals, and the other a long string of pearls.

not real ones, of course, but a good quality of imitations; one pair of drop earrings that showed both good taste and even simplicity; a set of gold pins for cuffs, and a neat little rhinestone pin for a hat, completed her purchases. Yet these few articles always served their purpose of improving whatever she wore them with.
There's nothing that mars one's appearance more than a lot of cheap jewery. An expensive dress can be cheapened considerably by some in jewelry. Like a cape, an effect of abstraction can be given an inexpensive artistry by the addition of one or two simple pieces of artistic jewelry. Most people look better without earrings, as even the smallest has the tendency to be ornamental. None of us wants to look like Christmas trees.
Remember that what becomes one may be decidedly unbecoming to another. The simple effect is by far the most charming one.

RENS IN GREAT VICTORY JAN. 1
一
Will Face Crack St. Joseph Team Next Sunday
By FRANCIS.
With two more victories on their home court, Bob Douglas' Renewance Five continued on their winning way, bowling over all opposition who challenge their claim as the host team in the country.
New Year's night, before a packed house of gamecasino, they played one of the most exciting games seen on the Harlem court in many a day and, thanks to the unerking eye of "Pappy" Ricks, came out the victor.
The strong Visitation Triangles of Brooklyn, one of the leaders of the American League, were the everyone expected to see a tough battle, no one visualized the dramatic finish that climaxed the encounter.
The game started as expected and play was fast and furious during the opening minutes of the first half, with neither side showing much assistance, however, soon got their machine hitting on all five, and then things started to happen.
At the end of the half the champions were leading their strong rivals by ten points, the score being 31 to 21. In the second half the Brooklyn quintet put on an airlift defense, and by great playing of Joe Brennan and Red Conaty outplayed the Renassance, who were having all kinds of trouble getting past the guarding of the visitors. With the game drawing near the final minutes, the champions seemed to be losing, gaining on them, until they pulled up alongside of the Renassance at 47 all. With only a few seconds of play left, "Tappy" Ricks covered himself with added glory, when he received a pass, dribbled towards his basket, brushing aside shocked basket players, and basket just as the whistle blew, ending the game 49 to 47, and giving his team a well deserved victory.
For the Rens, Capt. Slocum, Ricks and Satch all reached double figures in the scoring, but Sanders and Jenkins both contributed their full share of Brennan and Red Conaty were high scorers for visitors, Brennan being top score man of the game, with 19 points. On Sunday night the Assumption team, also of Brooklyn, went down to defeat at the hands of the Rens, with 44 to 29. The Rens, who were on the road all week, got into New York at 7:30 p. m. and by their play showed they were tired. They had enough, however, to whip the Brooklyn quitter with relative ease. Ricks and Slocum scored with 12 points and Jenkins next with 11. For Assumptions, Gilkerson starred with 9 points.
Both Manager Douglas and Capt. Slocum were reported as being slick, the former with an attack of pneu-
mia and the latter with a speedy recovery. We wish them both a speedy recovery.
Next Sunday night the St. Joseph Catholic Club of Hoboken will be the guests of the champions and a great game is anticipated, as the team will be one for the Renaissance to whip. The New Jerseyites have even trimmed the champions once on the Harlem court. In the preliminary game on New Year's night the team draws 40 to 34 and on Sunday night Bryan's All Stars defeated the Scholastics 55 to 27 in a very interesting game.

Tiger Payne at the Ridgewood Grove Saturday Night
Matchmaker Jack Clifford, of New Ridgewood Grove, has captured one of the best light-heavyweight matches to head his card for Saturday night. He has signed Yale Okmut and Tiger Payne, dark-bued Australian. He joined Johnston's tutelage. Okmut has lost only four bouts in over 65 fights and the champion, Tommy Longhua, scored two of these defeats. In his last bout Okmut beat Tom Kirby at Madison Square Garden. Payne has had eleven fights in this country and has won ten. Outsider Kyle Knight of Cyclone Jack Humbock, the first time the Belgian ever bit the dust. The Payne-Okmut fight should be a thriller. In science it is hard to choose between them.
Smith Plays Howard Quint
CHARLOTTE, N. C., Jan. 3.—After facing a fast five from Lutheran College to the tune of a $3 to 12 score on the week before, the rather young Smith five gave a clever quintet toward a hectic struggle before the team's return. The Howardites by a score of 23-18. These Smith bulls are playing their season of basketball in their new Hartley Wood $45,000 gymnasium and they gave a splendid account of themselves in this, their second season. In this, their veteran team work that whipped those plucky bulls into submission. Simpson and Woods made some fine shots and played heads-up basketball for Howard. Lasalle, a clever guard on the Simpson team, also played a great audience on its tools by his smart floor work and clever ball handling. It was really an exciting evening of splendid basketball.

"Snowflakes" Knocks Out Salina in First Round at the Olympia
Tiger Payne, light heavyweight, of Australia, seized a technical knockout over Vito Bannon of Los Angeles in the ninth round of their scheduled ten-round heat at the Olympia A.C. in Harlem last Saturday night. He const beats and had just risen from a knockdown when Jim Crowley, the referee, stopped the contest.
It was Domani's first appearance in a local ring and he started off to give the impression of being a good boxer. He fought Payne at long range and then early rounds, but the Australian solved this attack by fighting his way to close quarters.
Once in place Payne let fly at Domani's body with both hands and soon had the Californian tired and the merce of Payne in the eighth and ninth rounds. He was dropped only once for a count. That was just before the defence stopped the bout. A right to the coin sent Domani down, and when he arose at the count of 10, he with his back to Payne and eyes glass, rowley intervened at this moment.

Smith was taken into camp on their own home court to the score of 23-18. Howard early showed a mastery over the rivals, with Wood and Johnson taking high score honors for the visitors.

FOR generations it has been the custom for men gathered around the bier of a departed brother to heap praise upon the deceased, regardless of their opinion of the departed while he was in the land of the living. With the advance of civilization this, in many cases, form of hypocrisy is passing. So, with that noble Roman who reminded the faithful that they had gathered to bury Caeser and not to praise him, we join in reminding readers of this paper that the Negro in this country will not shed tears at the passing of Tex Rickard.
Ever since Jack Johnson proved that the white man had no corner in the science of the roped arena. Mr. Rickard obstinately and absolutely refused to give the Negro a chance to fight for the highest honors in fistiana. Hardly a week before his death he went out of his way to again impress upon fifteen millions of Americans that they had no place in the boxing world, when he made up his list of logical contenders and ignored the right of George Godfrey to a place on that list.
If it is true that Mr. Rickard is all the white newspapers have claimed for him as the biggest man in boxing, Mr. Rickard knew when he was making up his slate that he was again denying a loyal race of people the opportunity for representation—representation gained over obstacles that would discourage the people of many other races.
Tex Rickard rode to glory on the shoulders of black men, but, like men of his kind, when he had attained the prominence which he wrought, he turned his back on them and became one of the race's greatest enemies. Oh, point not to those empty gestures, ye fools—gestures in the form of scraps thrown from a table of plenty when he did see fit to allow a few men in the lighter classes a chance to box at his Madison Square Garden. The heavyweight division of pugilism is the throne upon which sits the real king, and it was the unbending policy of Mr. Rickard to at all times block the road to the king's throne if the valorous knights were men of color.
As the country's biggest promoter it was within the power of Mr. Rickard to give Harry Wills his chance to fight for the world's title. There were enough people in this country who believed that Wills stood a chance with Jack Dempsey, and we refuse to join that mob so ready to shout, "I told you so," because Wills, with morale broken by such as Tex Rickard, became an easy prey to a fighter of less worth than the same Wills, who had waded through the formidable Black Brigade on his way to the position as Logical Contender.
Joe Gans and Jack Johnson gave Tex Rickard his chance to be pointed out as the promoter "par excellence," but after the passing of Wills and the coming of Godfrey we found Mr. Rickard still running true to the form he had established, and not once did he give us reason to hope that boxing would be placed on the impartial plane which would give any worthy man the right to fight for the world's title.
And it is fitting in the scheme of things that he should breathe his last in a section of the country noted for its unfairness to the Negro. Before the Great Unseen Power had decided to withdraw the breath from his body he was planning to give Young Stribling, an inferior fighter, the place that should have been occupied by George Godfrey. The section of the country which applauded his efforts in denying the Negro a chance can now mourn when they realize that one of their "native sons," utterly devoid of merit, will not be placed on the pedestal from which they have ever tried to keep the Negro. Shed no crocodile tears, veen men of black face and red blood. Forgive, vea, but forget, NEVER.

Commission Says Dundee Must Fight Jack Thompson
Joe Dundee, welterweight champion, was reinstated by the local boxing fathers at their weekly meeting last Friday on the condition that he goes through with his contract to defend his dictionary commission lifted the ban on the 147-pound king after the board physicians found he was entirely recovere from an illness that put him on the sidelines six weeks ago.
The application made by McArdle that the papas reinstate Mickey Walker and thus make the road clear for a bout between the welterweight champion and Ace Hudson, a submission ruled that when Walker applies for reinstitution and a license to box here, and not before then, would they discuss lifting his ban.
Defenders Lose Again
The Blue Birds scaled the Defenders 24-15 in the preliminary at Pocockland Palace New Year's night. Due to the ball being closely held and inaccurate shooting, the game was scoreless for the first ten minutes. The Blue Birds were in front 8 to 6 at half-time. They atactedly forged ahead in the second period. This is the third straight setback for the Defenders. The Blue Birds are second in the league standing.

Crush Original Memphis Five and Wreck Dagmars in Double Bill
PHILAELPHIA, Pa., Jan. 5.—The Commandeurs basketball quintette started the 1929 season with a sensational double header triumph over both of its North Philly rivals, crushing the original Memphis Five 24 to 9 in the first game and then swamping Dagmars immediately afterwards 24 to 11 in a rip-roaring contest, despite the lopsided score, last Friday night at the Waltz Dream thursday. Al Bronson, who has done very little playing this season, made his debut at center for the Commandeurs in the curtain raiser and played a wonderful game. With a little more force he is bound to be heard from.
The Memphis Five in the first few minutes of play looked as though they would make the battle hard fought for the Commandeurs, who started the initial contest with a team below par. Gradually the Commandeurs machine warmed up and turned a very close game into a runaway. It was in the Dagmars game that the Commandeurs, who are rapidly becoming the biggest drawing card in Eastern basketball circles, displayed their real ability. Commandeurs swung into the lead on the Dagmars to a basketball lesson, outgeneraled them in every department of the game and did everything except shut Dagmar out from the floor. Bob Sherod and Walter Holloway stars of the Dagmars Club, brought rounds of applause for their hard playing and uncanny shooting. Sherrod and Lee sensational long shots, which were the talk of the night.

HAVANA, Jan. 4.—Kid Chocolata is Ihavana's Kandy Kid, as palate-out in the Amsterdam News on the eve of departure of the little fight. from New York, Cuba has given him a right royal welcome to his own land. He was the guest at a banquet attended by 100 of his own people last night, when he announced that he was through with chicken feed bouts here, and that he had been signed to box Andre Routis, of France, for the world featherweight championship in New York in March. He will return to New York next month. The colored bantamweight left his six weight classes with a single of clothes, $0 and a ticket. He is now wearing glad rags, becoming a hero of the ring. He cleared $20,000 in being undefeated in sixteen fights in New York, 4 of which he won by knockouts. He also won a close friend a $10 note for Christmas.

Madden Pays Tribute to Harding
By Will Anthony Madden.
Good-bye! Harold,
You've finished the game,
You have signed off and paid the toll;
And the "Tiger" snails
As St. Christopher wine,
And Red and Black comes through with a goal.
Good-bye! Harold,
All your teammates old
In spirit again ride with you;
And the "Eagle" screams
As Incorporator wine,
And Red and Black once more comes through.
In many games they rode with you,
As a foe after foe went down;
Forward! Lowry and "Perk";
"Guard close!" Matthews and Green and Brown.
Good-bye! Harold,
May that road beyond the well
Be bright and clear;
For we watch and wait
As you take the long, long trail.
From Detroit, Mich., Exchange
M. ANSELL BELLS, faces a blank
New Year. The smile has gone from his black features. The gold teeth that once flashed in merriment are hid behind a sober, countenance. The chuckle that punctuated his conversation has died in his threat. Ansel Bell is sad. For one thing, Mr. Ansel Bell is disillusioned. In New York some weeks ago he read in the newspapers that Detroit was the most prosperous boxing arena. Every try that fighters were in great demand for, they were falling over each other in an effort to pay boxers more than they were worth. It was a tip to Mr. Ansel Bell and he turned his face toward the setting sun. He is a boxer by trade, and since his business had been neither prosperous nor promising in the East, he caught a train for Detroit. What kind of a train is nobody's business.
Arriving here, Mr. Ainsel Bell found that the New York newspaper reports were somewhat exaggerated. There were no promoters at the depot to meet him with generous contracts. No one met him in the newspapers. He visited the symposiums and other light headquarters and no one gave him what the boys call a "tumble." He asked for bouts and all he received was a stony stare, a shrug or a bolsterous guffaw.
MR. ANSELL BELL knew that this sort of thing could not last long. For a time he perished, undiscouraged, but soon the crisis came. He describes it himself in a letter in his own handwriting, written on the stationery of the newspaper, where Mr. Bell has been a guest in Room 2. His conclusion, objectively told, follows:
I have come to the point where I am forced to seek a job and work for the next three or six months and get away from here. My little man has all out. I am back with my rent for three weeks. Funds are low and people are not sympathetic. Money—or out I go.
Mr. Ansel Bell comes originally from the island of Jamaica. Sometimes he was known as the "Jamaica Bly Wender. Circumstances have caused him陵, and he is present instance he sign himself "The Jamaica Bly Wanderer," with the evident feeling that it is more appropriate. It all goes to show just how Mr. Bell's attitude toward life has changed as misfortune crowds him to the ropes. It isn't that he minds the pain of exertion that comes with hunting or felling. He is not from the romance of the ring that the humble station of pterer or bellboy, which he is now seeking, with scant success. It has touched his pride. No longer will he be the pugnacious giant of his fellows. When he walks along St. Antoine and adjoining streets in his black derby hat he will receive a reward for his bravery in threng. The passershy will not say to each other: "There goes Ansel Bell, the great Jamaica fighter, who bent, etc., etc." To them he will be just another porter on his way to work. And that is why Mr. Ansel Bell is
Salem Defeats Keltons
The Salem Crescent courtmen gained another victory, last Wednesday, when they nosed out the Kellistons in a hard fought game by the score of 26 to 24 at P.S. 79 in the Bronx.
The Bronx boys, playing a steady brand of basketball, rolled up 12 points in the first half to Salem's 8. The Crescent's accurate passing, unerroring shots and efficient working defense enabled them to conquer their opponents.

BOSTON, Jan. 2—Phil Edwards, New York University track star and Canadian representative in the Olympic games, last summer, will compete in the run in Boston Athletics Association meet here, February 2.
THERE WERE many fights in which he engaged that drew the applause of the crowd. Many sought his friendship when he was a star right here in Harlem, and we are now reproducing the appended letter hoping that some of those same ones who called him friend in the heyday of success will come forward and give him a helping hand. Kid Butler was the kind of fellow we all liked when he "carried on" in these parts.

Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty,
Littleton, N.J.
It has been a long time since I have written to you. I have written many letters to different folks. Finding your address in my memorandum book, I booked a trip to India in your paper would reach my many friends and followers of yesterday.
First, I am well, thank the dear Lord, and trust you some that you saw will trust you the very best of health. Also that you have had a prosperous year, with better yet to come in the future. I did not have much prosperity in the past three years, but I am confident that the best that will happen will be mine.
I am insolving clipping that was run by the leading white newspaper here to assure you and my many friends and followers that I am still alive and try to keep up with the news, fell on my way to guess. I know many that have said untruthful things to hurt me. Yet, regardless, like a true fighter, I carried on. I have come to the point where I am going back to life you to give the followers and friends of mine the truth why I am not or ever will be mounted along with the wonders of yesterday. There is no use to talk, you know. Drunk punch. I guess will say. How many of my opponents have been addressed me getting a severe passing? Al Brown. I am sure, should be one to come forward and disclose who helped him to be where he is today. Bobbie Dilson, another, though disabled, has been mentioned. Like the former light-weight champion of the world, the late Fredde Welsh, as the white papers stated a few years ago, died broken-hearted. For the friends and followers of yesterday in time of success, forgive them alive.
The clipping will say the rest for me
Always,

"The Amateur Boy Wonder."
D. S. A verse I like to good is "The
Face on the Bar Room Floor";
"Come, boys, I know there's kindly
hearts mining to good a crowd;
To be in such a good injury would make
a deacon proud!
Give me advice, didn't thats what I
want; I'm out of funds, you know.
When I had the cash to treat the gang
this hand was never slow.
What? You laugh as though you
thought this pocket never! And a soul
I once was a spender as well, my boys,
as any one of you."
This is great. I read it at night before
my prayers.—A. B.
Anent Harold Harding's Death
Dr. Chauney Levy of Brooklyn, Bert Pills and a number of others think it was quite a tribute we paid to the late Paradid Harding in our last issue. Among the letters coming in we take pleasure in reproducing the following: Tuesday, Jan. 1, 1920. Romeo Dougherty, Esq.
Care of Amsterdam News,
Milwaukee, M.I.
My dear Mr. Milwaukee;
Permit me to thank you most sincerely for the very splendid tribute you paid to my dear departed friend, Harold W. Harding. I am his many, many friends felt a thrill of pride and gratitude upon reading your eulogy, and the thank you left us with an inescapable sense of grasly when we remembered what that day meant to Harold—just a few years back.
Death is a hard taskmaster and the passing of so fine a character as Harold Harding is hard to accept philosophically, but in the kniwshes that his closing days were spent helping others to enjoy a fuller life.
Harold went to Asheville in July of 1877 for his health and quickly relied on a part of his former energy, the hours of all Asheville and he was certainly offered the post as secretary of the Y. M. C. A., he accepted. He entered into this work with all the enthusiasm and sincerity typical of his days, and by the results he obtained it was fulfilling his life's mission.
Through his efforts over $600 was tailed to establish a summer camp for the boys of Asheville, and in August of 1923 he had listed over 100 boys to re-enter the benefit of the camp, the larger number of boys ever listed for camp in the history of Asheville, and deeply interested in the life and training of the boys, and against the advice of his physician and many friends insisting on going along with the boys that he could personally supervise and act as the occupants. Unfortunately, while he was involved in the camp was flooded and Harold labored for hours in water knee-deep to save the lives of the young boys under his care, refraining to leave until every was safe. Thus he caught the cold that深入 into pleurisy and tightly pressed the body carefully surrendering his in the hospital. His duty. The citizens of Asheville turned out on buses at his funeral to pay tribute to his memory there.
I have travelled the country over, but never have I used a literary personality but those who would W. Harding. He will live I have used. Those who those who know him. I have been a supporter for his beginn of friends and we are grateful to you.

Tuskegee Girls' Team Ready for Court Season
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala.
Dec. 29.—Coach Amelia C. Roberts,
head mentor of the girls' basketball
team, has begun practice and the
indications point to a successful season.
Seven veterans have reported
for duty and a promising assortment
of new material responded to the
coach's call. Since practice began,
ten days ago, the Collins P. Huntington
gymnasium has been one of the
busiest spots on the campus, as the
girls are fighting hard for places on
the varsity team.
The little Ruth Hill, star performer,
captain of the team this year, did
not return to school. She will be
sorely missed and her place will be
hard to fill. This Albany, Ga., girl
was the team's scoring ace. In thirty
minutes of play against one of
Lake George's strongest opponents
this season.
Eloise Birch, of Little Rock, Ark., elevated to the position of captain, will make the team a capable leader. Miss Birch is a dangerous opponent, with uncanny ability to locate the ball and get it into the floor. Hattie Lindsay, a capable and heady player; Fidelia Adams, Marle Clark, Cora Chambers, Esther Barton and Theresa Adams combs the ball string. Coach lobers' hardwood balls. Among the most promising of the new candidates are Odessa Dawson, Aniston, Ala.; Reba Francis, Tyson; Texas: Myrtle Napler, Tulsa, Okla.; Northland: Arcadia, Ln. Bettie Steel, Fort Worth, Texas, and Althea Browne.
Diminutive Marie Clark, one of the fastest girls on the team, is showing considerable improvement in her work and she is another player who is also the best player on most any floor. One-third Adams, whose outstanding work last year caused her advancement to the varsity, will be counted upon to do good work this season. Among the new candidates doing the best work on the hardwood are Theresa Crawford and Katie McCarthy that Coach Roberts has excellent "Binds" in these two candidates. z The schedule calls for games with Califoun Colored School, Americus Institute, Talladega College, Atlanta University, State Normal School, the University of Alabama, Saloosa County Training School and the Community Centre Girls of Columbus, Ga.
Bedford Stops Y. M. D.
The Y. M. D. senior team of Carlton experienced one of the hardest fought basketball games of the season on Saturday, December 29, when they matched tosses with the Bedford Y. M. C. A. Victory was within their grasp until the last moment of play. A very few minutes had passed and a player first blood by the very spectacular shot from past the middle of the court. From this point on victory seemed possible with very hard playing. By playing a tight defensive game Y. M. D. allow. Bedford played down the first half, at the same time scoring Ls for themselves. Bedford was forced, because of close guarding, to score 6 points from mid court. Bedford came out with 6 scores as victors by one lone point, but they will long remember Y. M. D.

CUBANS MAKING GOOD HERE
Chocolate Best of the Lot Among Many From the Island
The constantly changing cycle of foreign boxes entering this country now includes six Cubans. Three of them are rated well up, two show promise and the other is an in-and-outer who might knock on anybody of the world's knacky boxes. This last, Roleux Saguero, perhaps is the most colorful of the group. At times he has looked like a world beater and at other times like the world's greatest flop. He is a slugging light heavyweight and his opponent is a slugging heavyweight or be slugged. However, he can box and there are those who believe that if he brought some of his speed into play he would get farther. The three who have shown the most promise are Kid Chocolate, a 130-pounder, and Manuel Quintero, lightweight. The others are Black Bill, flyweight, and Cuban Bobby Brown, light heavyweight. Kid Chocolate looks like the best of the feather contenders. He has won 10 out of 18ights in the East.
Chocolate fought one draw with Joe Scalafior, rugged Italian, and he demonstrated in this fight he has the heart to reach the top. Scalafior dropped him for the count of nine and then struck the Cuban recuperated rapidly and fought a well-earned draw. Santiago surprised everybody when he knocked out Joey Sangar, the really good Milwaukee boy, in two rounds here recently. Sangar, who uses that particularly deceptive southpaw punch which invariably lands on the jaw of an opponent. Black Bill, the flyweight, has shown plenty of speed and acquitted himself fairly well in several starts. However, he seems to need developing. Brown is one of the hardest fighters in the country to hit. He uses a crouching style which takes his head almost down to an opponent's waist, and this quality combined with exertion makes it hard for an opponent to react.
Brown put up some good fights in Boston before he went to Chicago last week to meet Joe Sekrya, but evidently as affraid of Salyra's punches he felt at increased opportunities and neither Joe nor he looked like they had been in a fight when the match was over.

Colored Fighters Stage Double K.O. in Florida
A double knockout—rare in ring annals—occurred here when Billy Long, of Philadelphia, and Al Trout, of Cleveland, colored middleweights, bowled one another over in the nineteenth round, according to a dispatch to the Evening Telegram last week. They had agreed to a finish fight after six draws.
Long was struck on the chin, Trout in the midsection.
The double knockout recalled the Ad Wolgast-Jo Rivers battle Vernon, Cal., in 1912. Both were on ground, for the thirteenth round, Referee Welsh assisting the lightweight champion to his feet and declaring him the winner.
Juniors of Mother Zion Nose Out Spartan Boys
The Junior Athletic Club of Mother Zion nosed out the Spartan A. C. 21 to 18 Saturday evening on the former's home court.
The winners jumped into an early leap when they were behind 11-12 at the end of first round.
The Spartans rallied in the second period, but the splendid forward passing of the Juniors was too much for them.
Buster Lockhart and Paul Code had high scoring honors. E. Paris gave a fine exhibition of court generalship.
The Excelsiors of St. Mark's snowed the Golden Eagles under, 20-15 in the second game.
M. Hughes captured high scoring in Vanstory played a flashy offensive game with the Eagles. Dorothy Bradlicks starred for the Golden Eagles.
The Panthers of Abyssina tied the Pirates of Mother Zion in the opener by the score of 24-24.
The Thomas S. Nmonds of the Pirates was the high point of Edwards of the Panthers was outstanding. The lineup and score:

Camerons Defeat Metro Diamonds, League Champs
On Saturday night, Dec. 29, at Abyssinia Gym, Ted Richardson's Camerons defeated the fast Metro兰ondons, in a fast and exciting game, in which the mighty black and gray machine held them to a score of 14, in the first half, but the Metro cane held them in second half to score 14 points and the Camerons 14 also, making the final score 25-18.
Godfrey Spoiled Risko's Career
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 29—Johnny Risko, the Cleveland baker boy, who got a much disputed decision from George Godfrey in a flatto encounter at Ebbet's Field, Brooklyn, last summer, is now showing what the referee and judges tried to cover up in that event. It was clear to all who watched the fight that for six of the ten rounds Godfrey put it on the baker boy for fair. It will be remembered that at one stage of the fight Godfrey held both hands above his head as an indication that his opponent could wade in he cared to. Johnny, however, was wary and did not take advantage of the opening.
The writer heard the newpaper men discussing the biased decision as they finished writing their stories that evening and one said: "I'm surprised at Muldoon standing for such a raw decision." It is now apparent to all that Johnny has been on the tobogan ever since his valor got the better of his good judgment and he went up against "George." even if he did have the judges with him that night.
Godfrey when talked to just after the encounter and asked why he stopped trying after the sixth round, replied: "I'm in the game to stay." Meaning that to have knocked Risko out would have jeopardized his future chance to get the necessary matches that mean dollars and cents to him—that pugilistic "sense."
A despatch from Boston dated Dec. 28 says: "The Cleveland baker boy dropped a few rung down the fistic ladder here tonight when he lost a close ten-round decision to Ernie Schaaf, the rugged Boston ex-sailor heavyweight."
Risko will soon be a candidate for the association of "punch drunk" fighters and he can charge it up to "George."

Talking Pictures At the Lafayette
Talking Pictures At the Lafayette
Energetic Frank Schiffman Beats the Field to Give Harlem a Treat
The Lafayette Theatre early this week announced the first of its talking pictures for next week. A great deal has been said and written about "sound" and talking devices in local theatres, but it remained for the ever-watchful, indefatigable Frank Schiffman to bring to patrons of his house this latest and most remarkable development in the theatre. And what is more, the same policy of the best to be offered must completely changed every week—which has found such favor in Harlem—will be continued on an even larger scale than ever before.
The "Biophone" installation at the Lafayette Theatre is said to be one of the finest in the city. It permits of the use of all sound and talking pictures—Vitaphone as well as Movietone. The voices of the world's greatest singers, the antics of the world's greatest comedians, the music of the world's greatest groove artists, the acting of the world's greatest dramatic artists will now be brought to the most successful theatre catering to Negroes.
The feature picture next week will be "Lights of New York"—a 100 per cent talking picture. "Lights of New York" is a stirring melodrama of Broadway and New York's underworld. The cast is one of the finest ever assembled in a motion-picture. It will be a singing a performance at once wonderful and unique, surpassing anything that can be done on stage or screen alone.
The stage program also deserves lengthy mention, for it brings two of the most popular comedians on the colored stage (Sandy Burns and Sam Russell) at the head of a company of some forty players. This cast includes Inez Dennis, Apis Brooks, George Wiltshire, Cecil Rivers, Flo Brown, Russell Lee, Chunk Robinson, Daisy Wright, Ellinor Johnsonson, and more. Next week is certain to be an important and interesting one for the many patrons of the Lafayette Theatre.
Stars to Appear for Big Midnight Benefit
The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters will again tender Harlem one of the best shows midnight of Jan. 22, when a number of the outstanding stars will again come to Harlem at the behest of the Brotherhood. Mr. Frank Schiffman, general manager of the Lafayette Theatre, has again courteously consented to give his theatre for the benefit. Mr. Lew Leslie, producer of the world-famous Blackbirds, will be general director of the bill to be presented. Mr. Leslie took charge of the last benefit and helped to make it the best of its kind Harlem ever had the opportunity of enjoying. Among the stars to appear will be Alicia Ward, Adelaine Hall, "Snake Hip"; Bill Robinson and Johnie Huddins, all members of Blackbirds; Allamba Girls with Amanda Dolphin, an Irvin C. Miller friend; Marido Brown and others from: Show Bert; Bert Tucker, son of Sophie Tucker; Benny Callahan, Roland Holder, the Four Boys Blue and many others to be mentioned in these columns later.
A more detailed account of the benefit will appear next week as space prevents any lengthy discussion of the big plans being completed for another big night at the Lafayette. At the last benefit given in behalf of the Brotherhood the house was sold out hours before the curtain went up and everything points to a repetition of last year.
Another Colored Show Headed for Broadway Soon
Davis & Stevenson Productions, Inc., are sponsoring "Pay Day," which went into the Orpheum Theatre in Newark, N. J., this week and which is said to be opening on Broadway soon with a cast which will include Charles Moore, Marjorie Lorraine, Dan Michaels, Clarence Todd, the original "Keep Shuffin' quartette. Hilda Perllina, William F. Walker, Jimmie Johnson, R. C. Lyle, Joseph Willis, Lily Yuen and Ida Anderson. A special troupe of Harlem beauties have been trained by Mr. Heywood to scintillate for the dedication of the bald-head row. A remembrance feature of the production is a vocal orchestra of fifty voices singing the hit numbers of the show.
"Pay Day" is booked to make its Broadway how next week. Mr Davis prevailed upon the producers to hold the world premiere of the play in Newark because he was born in Newark and lived the greater part of his life there.
Blackface Jazz Opera Slated for January 19
With its Negroid complexions produced by liberal applications of burnt cork, the jazz opera "Jonny Spielt Auf," or "Johny Strikes Up the Band," will have its American premiere January 19 at the Metropolitan Opera House. An all white cast will be used to dept the white and colored roles.
The opera narrates a tale of an American Negro jazz band leader who conquers Europe with his sympation and finds himself accepted in terms of perfect equality by the whites. He caps this by falling in love with a white woman who apparently returns his affections. Johnny is killed by an express train while the girl elopes with a white rival.
The work is extremely radical, making use of blues, a radio loud speaker and various mechanical effects. It was produced in Europe last year.
Deep Threat at Biltmore
"Deeon Harlem" opened at the Biltmore Hotel the morning evening. As soon as the press agency came to it and the usual tickets reach us, we have a chance to tell our readers about it.

The Rev. Dr. John A. H. McCarthy, the Rev. Dr. James A. H. McCarthy, and the Rev. Dr. James A. H. McCarthy, respectively, are the speakers at the service.
It Is the Consensus of Opinion That No More Thrilling and Outstanding Scene Has Ever Been Depicted on the American Stage Than That in Which Doe Doe Green Is Placed on the Stand in Garland Anderson's Play "Appearances," Which Opened Recently in Chicago. Green Has Been Singled Out for Special Mention at the Hands of the Dramatic Critics All Over the Country.
At Harlem Theatres
By OBSERVER
Choruses within the past few years have played a great part in adding to the attractiveness of the present day revue. It took the Lincoln Theatre to go local rivals one better this week when a double chorus made its appearance with the song Hold the revue headed by "Speedy". Smith which came to town for a week's run at the 135th street house.
The result is that both ends work to outdo each other and patrons of the house benefit by it. Assisted by a number of well known performers, "Speedy," who will be remembered as one of the stars of "7-11," got off to a wonderful start on Monday and despite the sudden weather audiences have found much the Lincoln to warrant their attendance.
"The Apache," a Columbia feature production, as the picture offering at the Lincoln Theatre the latter half of the week commenting Thursday, is one of those pictures which lingers in the memory. It holds the interest throughout the entire showing and sends the audience away wishing that there had been several reels more of the same sort. The plot is well developed, the situation is well and convincing, and the players excelsion well cast. The scenic backgrounds and worthy of special mention, especially the atmospheric glimpses of Marseilles and Paris.
Halled as "the Empress of Blues," Bessie Smith will head the revue underlined for next week enclosed Steamboat Days." With a boy of dancing girls, principals not seen here for the show and catch tunes the show should get off to a right start and hold its own all during the run.
AT THE LAFAYETTE
Eddie Rector and Ralph Cooper, dancers, comedians, producers, head the program at the Lafayette Theatre this week. It is evident that during the two years that these boys have been out West they have required enough knowledge of the theatre to place them in the front rank of producers as well as entertainers.
The news is called "Chocolate Blenders." The cast contains some old favorites and some new to Harlem audiences. Both groups answered encore after encore as the delighted audiences applauded them to the cheers. The cast includes George, Milliex and George, Russian and aerobic舞者; the Metropolitan Sisters; Cean and Johnson musicians of a dozen different musical instruments; Lillian Powell, Oriental dancer; Mattie Hite; Freddie Johnson, union

the dancer; Dick Campbell, Billy Gulfport, Ed. Pugh and the masters—Eddie Rector and Ralph Cooper. Then there is a dazzling chorus and the Cotton Club Orchestra. Talent enough for Broadway—and all welded together into a fast-moving, beautiful, hilariously funny revue. The photoplay program includes as the feature the screen version of the broadway stage play, "Oh Kay," Colleen Moore is the star.
The Lafayette Next Week
Announcement is made by Earl Danner that his next production will star Cora Green, comedienne and songwriter. Miss Green is the only one of the original Panama Trio left in America. There are members of the trio were Florence Mills and "Bricktop" Smith, now the owner of one of the leading cabaret in Paris.
Dancer says he is planning to make this new show his greatest play—exceeding by far both "Africana" and "Deep Harlem."
The show will have its premiere at the Lafayette Theatre during the week beginning January 21.
Maud Russell and her "Just-A-Minute" girls will be part of the cast.
AT THE ALHAMBRA
"The Surprise Party," at which Billy Higgins is host, is a record-breaker for laughs at the Alhambra. Popular Vioia McCovy is among the merrymakers—also Johnny Lee Long, Alma Travis, John Bryant, Pimcat, Ted Blackmon, George Randol, Doris Rheubottom and others, of course, the sixteen Alhambra Girls.
Manda Randolph, for this week only, stops out of the revue into a creepy mystery play, "The Ghost House." Her part, however, is all fun. The audience wildly applauded the appearance of their favorite with the drama players. When the unexpected finish of the mystery play comes one is caught with the thrill and a laugh at the same instant.
If this is a fair sample of the 1952 model of Alhambra shows, it looks like a jolly season for Harlem. The picture feature is "The Wages of Conscience," with Herbert Rawlinn.
The Wednesday midnight show will have some extra special surprises for patrons, it is promised.
The Alhambra Next Week
"Ready Money" is the enticing title of the revue for next week at the Alhambra. Billy Higgins says there will be plenty of "ready money" flashback—but it will likely be "stage money" watch it don't buy anything but laughs. The Alhambra drama players will be Kentucky mountaineers, for the
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1929
week. The play is "The Moonshiner's daughter," dealing with the bitter feud between the Claytons and the Blackburns, and how love finally aids a way to end the mountain warfare of two proud families.
To complete the triple program there will be the picture feature "Top Sergeant Mulligan," in which dainty Lila Lee will be seen.
Chorus Remembers 'Breezy Sue'
The Sixteen Alhambra Girls presented Miss Susie Sutton with a beautiful specially designed floor lamp on Christmas, which was also her birthday.
Miss Sutton entertained the entire chorus and principals on Monday evening at her home.

Noble Sissle a Hit in Liverpool
Scott and Whaley Also Making Good in Their Latest Musical Comedy
"Noble Sissle," says the Liverpool Evening Express, "who tops the bill at the Shakespeare Theatre this week, is no stranger to Merseyside, although this is his first visit to Liverpool. He has already established a reputation at music-halls on the other side of the river.
There is an art in most things, and Sissle has proved that he has mastered the art of syncopation. With Sam Rose at the piano last night, he sang some delightful Southern melodies, but he received most applause when, at the request of a member in the audience, he gave "The Big Parade."
"The half-monologue, half-song, dealing with the Battle of the Marque, in July, 1918, was treated in a masterly fashion.
"There was a charming freshness about Cosgrove and Westwood, two young entertainers, who produced melody with the aid of a piano, and humor without the slightest effort. The Six Follie Girls gave good assistance to Maggie Dickinson and Syd Chester. Miss Dickinson put grace and energy into several good dune items." Speaking of Sissle and Scott and Whaley, the Liverpool Daily Courier had the following to say:
Dickinson and Culver, and the Six Folle Girls, in their non-stop singing and dancing act, were other notable attractions.
The programme includes the Spyras in "Porter No.17," which creates great laughter; Stan. Stanford, the "silver-voiced navy"; Underby, ventriloquist, with his singing wheel, Roberts and Hallet, Cosgrove and Westwood, melody boys, and the Cloe and Ray Trio.
Scott and Whaley.
The famous colored comedians, Scott and Whaley, return to the Royal Hippodrome this week with their highly-successful musical entertainment; "The Bogus Prince."
These kings of cross-talk are seen to excellent advantage in this production, in which they are supported by a talented company.

Watch Tongue For Signs of Illness
Your tongue is nothing more than the upper end of your stomach and intestines. It is the first thing your doctor looks at. It tells at a glance the condition of your digestive system—and physicians say that 90 per cent of all sicknesses start with stomach and bowel trouble.
A white or yellowish coating on your tongue is a danger signal of those digestive disorders. It tells you why the least exertion tires you out; why you have pains in the bowels, gas, sour stomach, dizzy spells.
And it's a sign you need Tanlac. This good old reliable medicine has helped thousands who were physician's wards. See how the first bottle helps you.
Tanlac contains no mineral drugs; it is made of barks, herbs and roots—nature's own medicines for the sick. Get a bottle from your druggist today. Your money back if it doesn't help you.

MUSIC
By FRANKYE A. DIXON.
Artists who can give two or more recitals in a season at Carnegie Hall, with every available space sold each time, can be counted almost on one hand. This honor Roland Hayes shares with John McCormack, Paderewski, Hofmann, Rachmanini off and Fritz Kreisler and his Sunday afternoon recital was an example of it. In his interpretations, Hayes showed those same fine qualities of brain and physical instinct which make his recollections such. Such was again displayed by his versatility, his beautiful readings and scholarly conception of Havin's two songs "Sters Bargeld Liebe Site" and "Heller Blick," also herberts "The Repose of the Holy Family" from "L'Enfance du Christ."
The outstanding feature of the program was the second group of French composers: Wido Dupare, Koechlin and Debussy. He sang this group with delicacy and finesse and with such crystalline transparency of beauty that it seems that no other artist equals him in the ability to be at once clear, simple and beautiful. Debussy's "Alr of Azael," from "L'Enfant Prodique," was, for this writer, the climax of the afternoon. The sheer beauty of tone, technique and rhythm was enough to ravish the ears of any listener. By his exquisite interpretation of his great compositions he came to full stature as the great master he is.
The concert ended, of course, with a group of Negro spirituals, including the following: "When I Get Home," arranged by his accompanist, Percival Parham; Hall Johnson's "Jesus Lay Your Head in the Winder" and "I Can't Stay Away," in which Mr. Hayes performed a dual role—that of interpreter and arranger.
By popular request. Mr. Hayes' oncores were Rachminoff's "Songs or Georgia." the familiar "Passing By," Dovarak's "Lango," Avery Robinson's "Water Boy" and our esteemed Laurence Brown's "Every Time I Feel the Spirit."
The human mind is constituted so that it will always pay homage to genius, let it be exhibited under a white or black surface. Therefore, and Roland Hayes is no more ornament, but a great and serious responsibility.
Mr. Hayes was ably supported by his new colleague, Percival Parham, accompanist.
To Concert Stage
Biles Bledsoe will return to the concert stage after an absence of two years, during which time he has been exploring the fields of drama and musical operetta. He is now one of the stars of "Show Boat." His program at the Galleria Theatre on April 27 will be unusually interesting since he will give a scene, in costume, from Verdi's "Aida" with Madame Viola Philo, soprano, formerly of the Metropolitan Opera House. Mr. Bledsoe will portray the role of Amonasro and Madame Philo that of Alda. Also he will sing "The Creation," a poem by James Weldon Johnson and music by Louis Grunberg. There has been only one other perfor-mentation in America, and that was when he sang a number with Krousssevich, conductor of the Boston Symphony orchestra in 1926. In addition to these two features, he will give a regular concert program.
Jubilee Choir to Sing at Republic Theatre
Forbes Randolph's Kentucky Jubilee Choir, which is appearing at the Roxy Theatre this week, and who headlined at the Palace Theatre some six weeks ago after having completed an extensive tour of the principal vaudeville houses of the country, will offer an evening of Negro spirituals and folk songs at the Republic Theatre on Sunday evening, January 13, at 5:30. This choir is composed of eight male voices. It was organized by Mr. Randolph two years ago. The choir of the choir are as follows: J. Arthur Gaines, Robert McCaver, gift tenors; Hilton Jones, Augustus Simons, second tenors; William Vensey, Frank Pollitt, first bass; Arthur Payne, Matt Housely, second bass.

Walter Mortimer Hunter, Music Teacher, Succumbs to Sudden Illness
Walter Mortimer Hunter, baritone singer, who was to have given New York another of his proclamation recitals February 1, had his musical plans cut short suddenly Sunday of last week by death and was buried Thursday morning at Evergreen Cemetery.
The musician and teacher, who lived at 109 West 135th street, was forty-six years old and had lived here all his life. He was unmarried. Funeral services were held last Wednesday evening at Abysinian Baptist Church, 132 West 139th street. The Rev. W. W.

White and Edwards, 135 West 152d street, had charge of the funeral arrangements. One pathetic note was lent the final exercises when Mrs. Beatrice Moore Del Gardo, 109 West 153th street, with whom Mr. Hunter conducted a voice studio sang Tosti's "Goodbye." The studio had long time friends had promised to sing for each other in event of death. The deceased was employed by the Ehrhick art galleries, 36 East Fifty-seventh street, and had held his position over an annual century. Meanwhile he studied music and was a studio partner of Mrs. Del Gardo, who also acted as his crítica.
Plans had been completed and advertising placed for the eleventh annual recital at Renaissance Casino on February 1. Doris Trotman, soprano, and Ramon P. DeToral, pianist, were to assist him. Mrs. Pauline Bradley, a sister, is the only near relative to survive him.

Will Continue Private Practice; Duties Place Him in Authority in Six Precincts; Won High Place in Army Medical Service
Dr. Louis T. Wright, newly appointed police surgeon, was stepping into the routine of his duties today with assignment to the Seventeenth Surgical District, comprising six Brooklyn precincts. The first Negro to receive such an appointment in New York, and possibly in the world, he gave his first interview Sunday to The Amsterdam News.
The position carries a salary of $4,400 and not $4,500 or $5,000, as was reported when he was declared eligible for appointment last summer.
In his interview at his office at 218 West 139th street, Dr. Wright gave credit to Ferdinand Q. Morton, civil service commissioner, for suggesting that he take the examination for one of the highest competitive posts in the civil service. He also expressed "gratitude to all my friends for their encouragement."
education was received in Atlanta, where he was graduated with an A. B. degree from Clark University. Entering Harvard Medical School, he was graduated cum laude in 1915. This was followed by an internship at Freedmen's Hospital, Washington. His first practice was at Atlanta, where he was an associate and student with his stepfather, Dr. W. P. Penn, now chief of surgical service at Veterans' Hospital, Tuskegee.
In 1927 he was commissioned a lieutenant in the medical so
The doctor, who identifies himself with eight medical organizations and other bodies in addition, will continue his practice. His new duties are largely authoritative in that all orders and actions of his district contingent upon medical opinion must have his approval. This fact was believed to be a possible bar to his appointment by pessimistic circles following announcement of his standing. Police Commissioner Whalen made the appointment on merit, he said, and at the request of Mayor Walker. It is believed that the way has now been paved for appointments of other doctors to posts in departments other than that of health. He served on the general staff of the city Department of Health in 1919 and 1920.
Dr. Wright is thirty-seven years old, and was born in La Grange, Ga., the son of Ceah Kentchen and Lulu M. Tompkins Wright. Much of his

Girls! Tell This to Your Skinny Friend
Tell him that the quick, easy way to put pounds of solid fresh on his bones is to take McCoy's Tablets. Tell him that besides helping him to fill out his flat chest and sunken cheeks and neck McCoy's will make him strong and vigorous and give him more ambition.
Miss Alberta Rogers, thin and rundown, gained 15 pounds in six weeks. McCoy takes all the risk — Read this ironclad guarantee. If after taking 4 sixty cent boxes of McCoy's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes any thin, underweight man or woman doesn't gain at least 5 pounds and feel completely satisfied with the marked improvement in health—your money will be refunded.
Just ask for McCoy's Tablets at any drug store. Distributed by McCoy's Laboratories, Inc., also distributors of McCoy's Cod Liver Oil—there is none better.

Above is a picture of Mrs. Lena McCann, 709 Short 9th St. Birmingham, Ala. She says: "I was feeling bad, nervous and very weak. I did not rest well at night and did not have much appetite. I was thin and felt tired all the time. I did not feel like going places. Life wasn't much pleasure. "I spoke to my mother-in-law about my condition. She told me that Cardui had done much for her. I sent for Cardui right away; kept on taking it, and in a few weeks I felt stronger. I took on more weight, ate more, rested nights, and did not have the weak spells. I took 6 bottles in all. It sure helped me." Manufactured in the South and used by women for over 50 years. Sold by druggists. Get a bottle today.

Whose Business Is It, Anyway? NO.2
IN DEALING with the situation presented by the Dunbar Apartments, two distinct questions seem to present themselves: Is it the better part of wisdom to withhold all criticism of the project until such time as there is visible evidence of an impending crash (which we feel is almost certain unless a little light is let in on the proposition), or offer such criticism as we feel will help the project to realize its pronounced purpose.
THE EYES OF THE ENTIRE WORLD are on this housing experiment and its ultimate success will redound to the credit of Negroes everywhere, and its failure reflect discredit upon them everywhere. What is more, the Dunbar Apartments are supposed to house a group of Negroes above the average in intelligence, which fact furnishes an additional reason for the expectation of success both for the sponsors and for the more than five hundred tenant-subscribers.
WE ARE NOT HERE CONCERNED with the individual salaries set forth; nor do we consider the amount paid for any of the positions exorbitant. Incidentally, there would not need to be any conjecture as to the amounts paid and the total cost of operation, interest charges, taxes, etc., if the Rockefeller interests or the management made the facts known directly to the tenant-subscribers, or through an advisory committee of tenant-subscribers elected or delegated by the tenants from each building in the group.
CONSIDERED from almost any angle imaginable, we doom it unwise that nearly twenty thousand dollars of the tenant-subscribers' money should be paid to members of the Bruce family, or any other family, no matter how efficiently the duties assigned to each might be discharged. Where does the co-operation come in? And when this is done arbitrarily without the co-operation or knowledge of the tenant-subscribers we consider it downright foolishness. Out of each tenant-subscriber's monthly payment a definite amount is for rent, including operating expenses, etc., and a definite amount is for payment on account of the stock he purchased in the project and interest on his unpaid balance, all in accordance with the terms of a "Subscription Agreement" with the corporation which most of the tenants haven't in their possession at this late day.
SO LONG as the Rockefeller interests receive their specified return on the investment, along with a specified repayment of a part of the principal sum, they cannot be expected to be anything but satisfied with the management of the apartments. But isn't it of equal importance for the ultimate success of the project for the tenant-subscribers themselves to be satisfied with their investment and their management, especially when they are supposed to own the apartments outright at some future date? And wouldn't a tenant-subscribers' advisory organization, co-operating with the management at this time, help to prepare the tenant-subscribers to carry the project on successfully when the Rockefeller interests withdraw?
AGAIN, WE ASK: "Whose business is it, anyway?"
A Rapid Advance
A Rapid Advance
FIFTEEN YEARS AGO an insurance publication made the statement that the amount of insurance upon the lives of Negroes was so small as to be almost negligible. That statement was inaccurate when it was made; today it would be ridiculous. Harry H. Pace, president of the National Negro Insurance Association, has compiled a pamphlet which

contains some astonishing figures relative to the growth of insurance among Negroes, personally and in the insurance business.
ACCORDING to Mr. Pace's figures the life insurance carried by Negroes amounts to nearly one and one-half billion dollars. In 1926 one large white company had over nine hundred millions of dollars in insurance upon the lives of colored people, and Negro companies had more than two hundred and fifty millions. In the past fifteen years twenty-eight Negro insurance companies have joined the National Negro Insurance Association.
WATT TERRY of New York has the largest insurance of any Negro, having $545,000 on his life. Two men carry from $200,000 to $300,000 worth of insurance, and eight have from $100,000 to $200,000. Twenty-three have between $50,-000 and $75,000. Between $25,000 and $50,000 there are fifty-six people.
THE GROWTH of Negro insurance companies and the large insurance held by individual Negroes are striking indications of the Negro's economic progress in the most fifteen years. His advance in art and literature has received more publicity, but it has been no more rapid than his advance in wealth.
THE year 1929 will mark a significant turn in the political history of the Negro race. Mr. Hoover comes into the kingdom with a background and an experience which are wholly commercial and material. He is an expert and exponent par excellence of economic issues. From Hoover's several speeches, the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments do not form a discourse. He owes the Negro the use by way of political obligation, and has promised him nothing. The Negro has been eliminated as a political issue by both the major parties. They both solicit his vote in the plinch of an election with equal avidity, but with equal sturdiness avoid the troublesome issue of his right to vote.
In years gone by the inauguration brought to Washington expectant Negro politicians from all parts of the land, hopefully awaiting to be appointed recorder of something or minister to somewhere. But no such hopes will swell the breast of the ambitious Negro politician on March 4. And yet the Negro continues a political entity which cannot be ignored by virtue of his electoral potentiality. No political party would wisely ignore five million potential Negro votes, two-fifths of whom are active and assertive, unless this vote is denatured through inter-

In the distance were the tall peaks of the Tyrol, some of which were still covered with snow. Late that evening we arrived in Vienna.
Next to Paris, Vienna is the most beautiful city in Europe. Many insist that Vienna is the more beautiful of the two, but Vienna has nothing that can compare with that beautiful promenade in Paris, which, beginning at Louvre,annes the Place du Tullieres Garden the Place du Concorde, the Champs Elysees, the Arc de Triomphe and ends at the Bols de Boulogne.
Besides, Vienna, since the war, is sadly run down at the heels. Of all the countries that were in the war, Austria fared the hardest. From being a country larger than Germany or France, it has been cut down to one of the smallest in Europe with a population of six million. On top of that is an enormous war debt, which the Germans are aware of. Social scientists of mine told me some of the tales of hardships suffered by the Viennese some five or six years ago that hardly seemed credible, and of how women of education and culture were willing to sell

from the government any degree of consideration or favor except in so far as it has the courage to demand and the power to command. Every group of voters, except the Negro, has a formulated program which it presses in and out of season upon the powers that be. The Negro relies upon the gratis, grace and goodness of the administration. I have asked a dozen Negro politicians who assume to speak for the race in matters political "what may the Negro expect from the incoming admittance?" The unvaccinated reply is that they have confidence in the good intentions of Mr. Hoover. The Negro should know to his bitter regret that good administrative intentions form the best paving material for the streets of hell.
Once upon a time there was a political leader, Clarence W. Matthews by name, who formulated a program for the race embodied in a statement of fourteen points. This program was indeed temperate in its demands. These fourteen points were presented to President Coolidge, whose administration was, hobbling over with good intentions for the race, and yet they were waived aside with the left hand because there no political pressure back of them to give the demands effectiveness. I suggested some weeks back that there should be called a racewide conference to deliberate and formulate a political program to be presented to the incoming ad-

Vienna dates back to the earliest centuries of the Christian era and is rich in historic interest. Stately palaces, fine old monuments, art museums, imposing public buildings, fountains and parks of rare beauty make one feel that western culture lnd reached a very high peak here.
Vienna, too, was the world's center of music. Four of the greatest musicians of all time lived here: Beethoven, Schubert, Mozart and Haydn. It is the home of waltz music, and that of the greatest of waltz composers, Strauss, of "Blue Danube" and "Merry Widow" waltz fame. In opera, Vienna was also a name that ranked first.
Among particular places of interest are the following: St. Stephen's Cathedral, which was built about eight centuries ago, and is one of the finest and most ornate in Europe, both within and without; the Imperial Palace, the Opera House; the Prater Park; the cathedral; the emperors and the statue of Maria Theresa and her generals.
The principal sight, however, so far as the city is concerned, is the Schonbrunn Palace, one of the finest in Europe. We went through this palace, but I am unable to tell much about it. To go through one must be escorted, and the guide gave us just one breathless glance at it. Others were waiting to get in and we were hurried through as if we were so many sauages passing through the mill. We were told that the palace has 1413 rooms, 193 bells was built for the Empress Maria Theresa, the lady who matched her wits with that of Frederick the Great of Prussia, and although Frederick finally won, he knew when it was all over that he had been in a fight.

Ayer Says Whalen's Crusade Against Crime Should Be Supported.

ministration. All Negro politicians can readily agree upon the principle of such a program, although the personnel of expectant political receivers might prove to be the apple of discord. Such a program cannot be made effective by mere inside persuasion on the part of those who claim to have the ear of the President. The thing cannot be done in a concert. The people must be formulated and presented before the fourth of March, so as to become an essential part of the administration's agenda, and not merely a negligible aftermath.
The Republican and Democratic National Committees are planning for permanent organizations so as to function more effectively between national conventions. Both of these bodies have adopted the policy of setting up Negro auxiliary committees to keep in finger touch with the Negro voters who might be disposed to follow the political fortunes of their respective parties. Why should not both parties set up permanent auxiliaries to hold the Negro vote in line? At present the Negro's political interest is intermittent. It breaks forth only during quadrennial campaigns. There is no consistent plan or persistent response that either party wants from the Negro is his vote; but the Negro wants for himself all of the rights and prerogatives involved in that vote. To secure this he must keep his eye everlastingly on the mail.

We were shown the Japanese room, a present from one of the emperors of Japan; the dining-room, with its beautiful inlair tables for scatting 150 persons: the Blue Chinese room, the Gold Room, whose ornamentation is of real gold—one million golden crowns were said to have been melted down in the purpose; the apartment in which the Policeman was kept a prisoner by Napoleon, the bedroom of Napoleon and that of his son, the Young Eagle; pictures painted by Marle Autonetto, and decorations by Marla Theresa herself.
The cost of living for an American is low. A good room in a good hotel can be had for fourteen shillings, or $2, and good accommodation can be had under $1 a day, while a good meal can be had for three shillings, or 42 cents. But to an Austrian the cost of living is very, very high because wages are low. A dollar a day is considered pretty good wages.
One of the things that struck me as odd in Vienna was the automat restaurant, which was a sort of narrow passage, with slot machines where people stood thickly crowded and ate. Amerien is the home of the quick lunch but staid old Vienna seemed to eclipse New York in this respect. I ate one meal in an automat on Markhilferstrasse, one of the principal business streets, and I nearly had it squeezed out of me by the crowd within.
Still, with all the discomfort and inconvenience, I fancy if these automats could be introduced into America as they actually are most other eating houses would be deserted. Instead of coffee and tea, the Vienna automats have

Backache
MANY people suffer from pains in the back. This is particularly true of female patients. The average person believes that the only organ which will give pain in the back is the kidney. The truth of the matter is that back pain is seldom a symptom of kidney disease. It has been observed that in hundreds of cases of advanced kidney disease, the occurrence of this symptom is rare. However, whenever there is present a stone or gravel in the kidney tract the pain is definitely localized and often very severe

Yet another thing that struck me in Vienna was the large number of women who had discarded stockings. Some wore socks that barely peeped above the shoe, while others wore not even that. Of course, this may have been due to the warm weather, for that part of the feminine organism between the knee and the ankle has developed such susceptibility to heat within the past few years that even the thinner skin will make the calves too hot. On the other hand, the temperature around the region of the neck and the chest has suddenly fallen, making necessary the wearing of fur on the hottest day of summer.
Perhaps, also, this matter of going stockingless was another way of making the style help out the pocketbook, but whatever the reason, heaven help the stocking manufacturer if ever the vogue spreads. The short skirt sent many a manufacturer into bankruptcy; bobbed hair ruined many a milliner, drove the hat-pin makers out of business and threw hundreds of thousands of Chinese out of work, and so on. At present, stockings are perhaps the most expensive item of woman's dress.
And as we traveled further south we could see that the style set by the Viennese was catching. Women here and there through Italy, and even in Switzerland and Southern France, had thrown off this hot and uncomfortable sheath for the legs.
As to color prejudice, it is hardly necessary to say that it does not exist. I have said already so many times that one may travel every part of the European continent and, instead of meeting it, meet only what seems special attention just because one is colored, provided he keeps away from white Americans. Color prejudice is a form of American insanity that the European cannot understand; instead of finding the Negro repulsive as the American pretends, the European finds him attractive and seeks his company. And that is why every colored American should try to save enough money to make at least a brief trip to Europe. It will give him a new vision of life that will certainly repay the cost.
From this distance I read each week the colored papers, and as I read of color discrimination, even in a supposedly civilized place like New York City, and match it with the courtesy shown all over Europe, even to some Negroes who really do not deserve it, I cannot help but be struck with the fact that there is something so radically different between the mentality of the white Negroes and one of the white American. If one of the same, the other simply cannot be, and vice versa. This is why, as I said, every Negro ought to come to Europe at least once in his life to observe this phenomenon.
The nearest approach to it is the prejudice for the Jew, and that is a long way off. From Vienna the Jews were banished again and again, and once were compelled to wear a yellow badge sewn to their outer garment. This yellow badge was necessary because God, or Nature, or whatever you will, was not so kind to the American as He is to the American. He is so obligatory to make the Jew a different color. Today, in almost every country of Europe, discrimination against the Jew is not much stronger than it is in America.

pains in the back. This is parapatients. The average person organ which will give pain in truth of the matter is that back kidney disease. It has been cases of advanced kidney dissymptom is rare. However, stone or gravel in the kidney calized and often very severe. If we consider the structure of the back which may produce pain, the bony framework must be regarded. This consist of the segments of the spinal cord and the joints formed by the union of the pelvic bones and their attachment to the end of the spine. It is this joint which gives most of the common back disorders, especially true in the case of women.
Next, we have the many muscles, which are subjected to all varying degrees of strain, and finally the nerves which are densely distributed deep in the back as they come out from 'the spinal cord. It can readily be seen how exposure to cold, blows or strains on these parts, together with inflammatory processes in the many joints, could produce the common complaint we call backache. It was formerly believed, even by the profession, that this pain, a common aliment in women, was due almost wholly from a displacement of the womb. We have reasons to believe now that this is not so, and that most of the trouble is a result of disturbance in the joint formed by the lower part of the spine and the pelvis.
Tuberculosis of the spine is associated with pain, which is especially marked if effort is made to bend. There is destruction of segments of bone in the column with a resultant distortion of the normal curvature and pressure on the nerves.
If you have been suffering from backache, don't try out all the patient medicines advertised for this complaint. They will be directed, in all probability, towards the purification of the kidney, according to the literature which comes on the bottle. It will be less expensive to have the real cause of your trouble determined in order that proper treatment may be instituted.
Regarding the fancy red and perforated plasters which are still in vogue in our neighborhood, I want to say that they are not worth the discomfort which they cause. This form of treatment was discarded many years ago by physicians. If you must have a plaster, make one of mustache flaxseed or antiphlogistine. The real indication for a plaster is to produce a counter irritant. This can often be obtained by painting the part with iodine, or by applying the limp or electric pad. The use of hot towels, followed by gentle massage with some limbments, will often be found very helpful. We are living in an age of new ideas and methods. Let us apply some of them in the care and treatment of our bodies.
