"VOODOO" SLAYING STUNS EAST HARLEM REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Complete in Two Sections MAN KILLS WOMAN HE SAYS CAST EVIL SPELLS OVER HIM Victim, Who Evidently Believed in Weird Concoctions and Superstitions, Choked to Death—Police Interrupt Mutilation of Corpse Because she cast voodoo spells over him was the excuse given the police by Nathaniel Conway, 44, 168 110th street, for the brutal slaying of his common-law wife, Mary Johnson, 40, in their home early Sunday morning. The man is now in the observation ward of Bellevue Hospital, charged with homicide. VOL. XX. NO. 13 MAN KILLS HE SAYS SPELLS Victim, Who Evidently Belle and Superstitions, Ch Interrupt Mutil Because she cast voodoo s given the police by Nathaniel C the brutal slaying of his comma their home early Sunday morni servation ward of Bellevue Hos Conway, according to the police, chooked his wife to death and then stabbed and hacked her body with a large bread knife. The first notification the police had of the gruesome murder was when Alfred Preston, a tenant in the house, notified Policeman Harold Bergman, of the East 104th street station, that something mysterious was going on in the house. The policeman hurried to the Conway apartment and as he opened the door he found Conway with a knife in his hand, slumped over the body of the Johnson woman, who lay dead on the kitchen floor, with her head in a pool of blood. Seeing the policeman, Conway first hurled the blood-stained knife at Bergman. He then picked up a milk bottle and threw it at the policeman, who, by this time, had drawn his revolver. Bergman fired a shot at Conway, the bullet grazing his temple. "Brunched for the moment," Conway was quickly subdued and arrested. Later, after treatment by an ambulance doctor, Conway recounted his reason for slaying the woman, adding that Policeman Bergman was part of the voodoo spell cast upon him by his late amour. When Captain Hackett of the East 104th street station reached the apartment, Conway pointed to him and asked: "Are you an American citizen?" When Hackett answered in the affirmative, Conway replied: "Well, call out the marines, Lafayette, we are here!" Conway told the police that he had known the woman for about two years, and that he had been living with her for the past two weeks at the 110th street address. Her spells and charms were too much for him, he said, as they caused him to see queer things. He determined to choke the spirits out of her, he told the police, so when he awoke Sunday morning he "placed his hand around her throat and squeezed hard." After he had killed her, Conway said he picked up a large bread knife, sat down on her chest, and proceeded to stab and hack her body. He had cut away a considerable part of her head and face when Policeman Bergman arrived. The alleged voodoo victim told the police that the woman compelled him to eat "goofer dust"; dried tomat skins stewed in oil, to make him see in the dark; dried sea gull brains, to secure him from danger in storms, and dried powdered lizard's eyes, to prevent rheumatism. One press report stated that instead of suffering from bats before the eyes, Conway was a victim of "bats in the belly." The body of the slain woman was The body of the slain woman was removed to the morgue, where an autopsy will be performed. Mrs. Rebecca Siegel, proprietor of the tenement, said Mary Johnson lived in dread of a black and white cat which prowled about the building and often predicted that she would have "bad luck" because the cat had passed her on the stairways, despite her attempt to counter the spell by crossing two fingers of each hand. Divorce Sought Laurence Springer, 1882 Dean street, filed an action for divorce against his wife, Mrs. Nellie Springer, in the Supreme Court on Thursday, through his attorney, Henry Bona-witz.

The mystery deepened yesterday when it was recalled that another pen declared to have been used by Lincoln in freeing the slaves was sold for $1,000 in Philadelphia in 1924. The pen on sale today came from the family collection of Louis Burgdorf, white, who was a messenger for the then President. Burgdorf was said to have smoothed the document while Lincoln signed the order giving liberty to millions of people. Affidavits by the messenger and his daughter authenticate his claim. The other claimant to ownership is Mrs. Stuart Pritchard, white, of Battle Creek, Mich. The woman avers that the pen was given to her grandmother by Mrs. Lincoln. The pen auctioned in Philadelphia was said to have been given by Lincoln to Charles A. Sumner, who later gave it to James Wormley, owner of the Wormley Hotel in Washington. Harvard Man Wins In Jim Crow Tilt Hotel Manger Settles for Insult Handed College Student An insult handed a Harvard University senior was acknowledged and amends made-last Wednesday in the Third District Court when the Hotel Manger was allowed to settle the matter and prevent action in the courts under the Civil Rights law. The trouble originated November 24, when Julian D. Steele, Harvard man, with five white students came here for the Harvard-Yale football game. Reservations had been made in advance at the Hotel Manger, otherwise known as the Seventh Avenue and Piftthit Street Corporation. They presented themselves at the desk and were registered, but when Steele started to his room with the others the clerk insisted that there had been some mistake and he could not get lodging. The student showed his receipt and was allowed to go upstairs only after a scene in the lobby and the five white friends had insisted that Steele be given service. One of his companions had his single room changed to a double one and took Steele in with him. Philip J. Jones, 379 Bridge street, Brooklyn, represented Steele and fought the hotel's contentions that the student was disorderly and unfit to be allowed lodging. Trio Freed of Charge Arthur Conquest, 27; Charles Lewis, 20, and Dorsie Evans, 20, all of 180 St. Elliott place, were dismissed from the charge of stealing a motor truck belonging to Joseph Pine from in front of Pine's home, at 475 Lenox avenue, when the case was heard in Heights Court before Maristrel Dodge, on February 5, THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News To Speak Here JOHN H. HARRIS — Oscar DePriest — Congressman-Elect From Chicago District. Fine of One Penny Even Is Too Much, Sometimes BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 25 (ANP)—One penny is a mere pittance when you have money, but if you haven't that sole brownie, it looms as a huge bank roll. If you don't believe it, ask I. G. Bean, who faced such a situation here in court last Tuesday morning. Bean had run afoul of the law and was hailed before Judge W. I. Grubb of the United States District Court. The fact was brought out that Bean had been discovered with two pints of liquor in his possession about two months ago and since that time had been in jail. Feeling that the prisoner had remained in jail long enough the judge imposed a fine of one dollar. Bean shook his head and explained that he would have to stay in jail as he did not have the dollar, due to the expense of sending out for meals during the proceeding two months. The judge then reduced the sentence to one penny. Again Bean had to confess that the fine was too much for his pocketbook and started back for jail. The United States Deputy Marshal, John T. Stewart, however, came to his rescue and paid the fine, and Bean was a free man. Thanking both the judge and the marshal, Bean walked out of court smiling with happiness. John R.

Ramsey, Howard Graduate, Also Figured in Sensational Divorce Raid Here Two Years Ago Charged with possessing morphine in violation of the Public Health law, Edward B. Kamsey, 50, 55 St. Nicholas place, a Kansas City, Mo., physician, who figured prominently in a sensational divorce raid on Edgecombe avenue in 1927, was arraigned in Heights Court Thursday before Magistrate Dodge and held in $1,000 bail for a further hearing April 4. Mr. DePriest is the first, Negro to be sent to Congress from a Northern state, at any time, in the history of this country. He, succeeds the late Martin B. Madden, white, who died over a year ago. The last Negro to sit in Congress was George White of North Carolina, who retired in 1901. The new Congressman-elect comes from a district where the colored population outnumbers the white-five to one and where the former group owns $400,000,000 in property. This district also includes the white business district often referred to as "the Wall Street section of Chicago." The forces of race prejudice, intrigue and political blackmail did their best to make Mr. DePriest quit his race for Congressman, but he kept on to victory. At the present time he is under an indictment on charges of political corruption in his district. The indictment was over his head at the time of his election, and a bitter fight is anticipated in Congress beginning Monday, Inauguration Day, in an effort to prevent him from being seated.

Ramse Kansas City, Mo., physician, wh sational divorce raid on Edgecom in Heights Court Thursday before $1,000 bail for a further hearing Detective Irwin O'Leary of the Fifth Division testified that, on January 21, he found in the doctor's possession, at 75 St. Nicholas place, several morphine tablets, three hypodermic syringes and eleven needles, together with physicians' instruments, in a dusty bag. The needles were rusty, the officer said. The doctor admitted possession of the tablets, but said he never used them. When questioned by Magistrate Dodge, Dr. Ramsey revealed that he was graduated from Howard University Medical School and received his license to practice medicine in the State of Missouri in 1800. He was a practicing physician in Kansas City for twenty years, he said, leaving there for Chicago in 1821 and coming to New York about two years ago. Dr. Ramsey admitted that in 1920 (Continued on 'Page 2.') Also, the Southern ghost of "social equality," has come to the fore regarding Mr. DePriest, and especially concerning Mrs. DePriest, who has been the main topic of discussion in the club formed by Congressmen's wives ever since her husband's election. The discussion by Mr. DePriest of how he plans to meet these problems lends decided interest to his address Sunday, following which he will leave for Washington. Alderman Fred R. Moore, also editor of the New York Age, will make the address of welcome on behalf of the city; the Rev. William Lloyd Imes, pastor of St. James' Presbyterian Church, will welcome Mr. DePriest on behalf of the clergy; Casper Holstein, on behalf of the fraternal organizations; Mrs. M. C.

Alleged Wife Slayer To Be Heard Today Andrew Gibreel, 28, 12 West 118th street, was held without ball for a hearing in the Homicide Court today, when he was arraigned Sunday before Magistrate Well in Harlem Court, charged, with stabbing to death his wife, Marie, 28, in the hallway of 15 West 115th street last Friday night. Although the police say Gibreel has been identified by several witnesses, who say they saw him kill his wife, Gibreel protested his innocence, and accused Juan Puig, in whose home at the 115th street address Mrs. Gibreel lived, of doing the killing. Child Slayer, 15, Judged Defective Bellcolla Whitney Mentally Deficient; Sentenced to Reformatory A sordid and tragic little drama of a former little North Carolina girl "who never had a chance" had its final episode Monday in General Sessions, when Bellcolla Whitney, 15, was sentenced to the Bedford Reformatory by Judge Max S. Levine. The sentence came after the child was adjudged mentally defective, after investigation by District Attorney Banton's office. The mere child confessed last month to alding in the attempted murder of the wife of her companion in Shrewsbury, N. J., and the later killing of the husband-criminal in a downtown factory loft Dec. 20. John MacKay, who, with the child, carried the body of Mrs. MacKay out of the Jersey home after striking the woman on the head with an ax, fled here with Bellcolla on Dec. 13 after the deed. The child smashed MacKay's skull with a heavy, iron. bar when altercation arose between the pair in a Thirty-first street loft they were attempting to rob. The girl was taken in by the Children's Ald Society and was later forced to confess when faced by Mrs. MacKay, who recovered from the attempted murder. The child was represented in court by Attorney Oscar Garrett, 2303 Seventh avenue.

Puneral rites were conducted Saturday night at St. Martin's P. C. Church, 122d street and Lenox avenue, with the Rev. John Howard Johnson, rector, conducting the services. Duncan Brothers' funeral establishment, 2303 Seventh avenue, had charge of the body. Interment was made Sunday at Alexandria, Va., where Mrs. Pottinger was born thirty-nine years ago. Only her husband and two aunts survive. Mrs. Pottinger received her education in Alexandria and in Washington. She taught in the public schools of the latter city prior to her marriage to the dentist there in 1919. The pair moved here immediately.

VICTIM TRIED TO GET AWAY; FAILED; DID NOT RESIST Reporter Who Witnessed Affair Says Suspect Was Kicked, Clubbed, Blackjacked and Punched in Stomach by Several Officers While Held by Others Like a pack of hungry wolves pouncing upon their prey, six or more white and colored patrolmen of the West 135th street station set violently upon Edward Allen, 32, 247 West 128th street, and beat and kicked him almost into unconsciousness at 127th street and St. Nicholas avenue Sunday afternoon a few minutes after two o'clock.

Lives of pedestrians and motorists were endangered during Allen's mad John Griger Sentenced as Fourth Offender for $1,150 Theft With a record of having spent nearly half of his life behind prison bars, John Griger, 37, who formerly lived at 18 West 133d street, was sentenced Thursday to life imprisonment at Sing Sing. Sentence was imposed by Judge Morris Koenig in General Sessions for grand larceny. The jurist, however, in sentencing the convict under the Baumes law, stated that he would not oppose commutation of Griger's sentence after ten years. Known as "the bag man," Griger made a specialty of stealing the luggage of wealthy persons. He was charged with having taken more than $40,000 worth of suicides and travelling bags. Griger, also known as Charles Moreland, was extradited from Boston December 13 after a theft committed only twelve days following his release from Sing Sing. The last conviction was for stealing $1,150 worth of luggage from Dr. L. C. Sansford, white, while the latter was a guest of the Hotel Roosevelt, last November. The ruse employed by Griger was to pose as a porter when guests entered hotels and simply walk out the door opposite the entrance and disappear around a handy corner.

Patrolmen George Webber and Alonzo Matthews were compelled to jump for their lives when they plant- ed themselves in the path of the car in an effort to stop it. An unknown woman was knocked down in the gutter on Lenox avenue, when Allen's car /swerved into her after striking a bank of snow. One other motorcar was struck by the fleeing Allen, but without serious damage, it is sald. Car Had No Brakes; Liquor Cargo Found Two possible reasons, both exceedingly plausible, developed regarding Allen's failure to stop when ordered to do so. First, the car contained about ten gallons of liquor; second, the car had defective brakes, the police reported. The license number was N-4-33-20, New York, and Pearl Giles. 484 Lonox avenue, is said to be the owner. Allen was booked on charges of reckless driving, driving without a license and violation of the Volstead Act. Albert Banks, 42, 1316 Bancroft street. a companion of Allen, was booked on a Volstead charge. Allen will be arraigned in Federal and Traffic Court, while Banks is held for trial in the former. A Wild Chase Duff's wife was quite shaken up when Allen's coupe struck their car from the rear, while both were headed north on Lenox avenue at 132d street. According to Patrolmen Webber and Matthews, Allen backed up and started off. They dashed in front of his car and Allen nearly ran them down as he swung around into 132d street and drove east to Fifth avenue, to 135th street, west to Lenox avenue. Banks jumped out and ran. Webber captured him, turned him over to a fellow officer, while he, Matthews and others took up the chase on the runningboards of commanded taxicabs.

TWG Mrs. Grey told the Magistrate that her son came to her home intoxicated on Feb. 17, at 9 o'clock in the evening. He began to quarrel with her and when she remonstrated with him for his actions, he picked up a chair and struck her across the face, Inflicting a cut across her nose and forehead which necessitated three stitches. After the assault Mrs. Grey was taken to Harlem Hospital, where she received medical treatment. Her son was arrested on a charge of felonious assault by Policeman Gordon of the Inner City told street station.

Brutal Methods Used by 6 Cops (Continued from Page 1.1) nue, south to 131st street, west to Eighth avenue and south to 127th street. Allen slowed down a bit to make a turn west and the exciting chase ended at 127th street and St. Nicholas avenue. The Wolf Pack Matthews drew his gun and ordered Allen out of the car after the old Dodge had skidded around and pointed east. In less than two minutes nearly a dozen patrolmen from the West 135th street station were on the scene, and a crowd of over a hundred people gathered. Immediately Allen stepped out of the car the policemen began beating him and pounding him with vicious blows about the face and body. Soon six patrolmen were all beating him at once, drawing blood from Allen's mouth. Patrolman Cohen struck him over the head with a blackjack, but the blow did not take full effect because so many of the officers were crowded around the prisoner. Allen did not attempt to resist arrest at any time after the police arrived and pleaded with the officers to stop beating him. When a witness protested, the police replied that Allen had tried to kill two policemen. Patrolman Webber, formerly a member of the detective division, came up to Allen and repeated the question that all the policemen had put to him: "Why didn't you stop when we told you?" Held by Four Cops While four patrolmen held Allen by the arms, Webber delivered at least six well-almed, terrific blows with his fist into the pit of Allen's stomach. Allen bent in two. Women in the crowd screamed and witnesses protested. Webber's attitude was plainly one of revenge. "You damned near run over me," he said to Allen, and then set upon him so savagely that all the other patrolmen called to him to stop. While Allen lay on the ground, Webber beat him on the feet with his blackjack. Only the prisoner's strong frame and constitution enabled him to withstand the fierce assault without losing consciousness. Allen was placed in a taxicab and FLU WARNING!

Unlicensed Physician Again Under Charge (Continued from Page 1.) he was sentenced to one year and one day in Leavenworth Prison on a charge of possessing narcotics. He served his time and his physician's license was cancelled. Dr. Ramsey showed the court both his university diploma and the Kansas City license. Atty. Julius S. Berk, white, 225 West Thirty-fourth street, representing Dr. Ramsey, disclosed that he had interceded for his client before the New York Medical Board of Regents in January, 1928, and succeeded in having Dr. Ramsey take the examination that would enable him, if he passed, to obtain a license for the practice of medicine here. Dr. Ramsey told the court that he had made a mark of sixty-five, and that he had, through his attorney, asked the board to take into consideration his twenty years' practice in Kansas City. The action of the Board is now pending, it is said. Magistrate Dodge wanted to know if the Board had knowledge of Dr. Ramsey's prison record and, if so, what reason was given by the Board for allowing Dr. Ramsey to take the examination under this condition. The magistrate instructed the physician to procure certified copies of his application to the Board and all other papers in the examination and present them to the court on April 4. Flossie Smellie, wife of William G. Smellie, an agent of the Victory Life Insurance Company, was present at Ramsey's hearing, as was also Ramsey's wife.

Public Meeting "The Changing of Social Orders" will be discussed by Mrs. Esterh Friedman at a public meeting of the Men's Group of the New York Urban League, 204 West 138th street, Friday evening at 8:30 o'clock. The speaker, formerly of the I. W. W., is a member of the staff of the Rand School. Albinett Stewart, 29, 315 Edge-combe avenue, has been appointed manager of the Harlem branch of the Irwin Company's new store at 2580 Seventh avenue, at 139th street, which is advertised to open Friday or Saturday for the sale of ladies' clothing and silk undergarments, furniture, jewelry, dry goods and men's clothing, on credit. The main office is at 52 East Broadway. Mr. Stewart became a salesman last summer while he was employed as a night porter at the Paramount Theatre, Forty-third street and Seventh avenue. Within a month he rented space in a store on Seventh avenue in partnership with one William Brown. He held on to his night work in the meanwhile. Shortly after this he met Jack Irwin, head of the Irwin Company, who made Stewart's place of business the Harlem branch of his company. Subsequently, the Irwin Company decided to open its own store and place Stewart at the head of it. Mr. Stewart came here from Granada, B. W. I., eight years ago. He established the Bonnaz Emery School in West 136th street in 1921 and seventeen months later sold it to a former employer. The Irwin Company is offering a participating stock certificate in the amount of $25, purchasable by its employees and customers. A dividend of 6 per cent was paid in 1928, it is said.

Internal Health by Nature's Own Methods Internal Health by Nature's Own Methods If you are sick inside you are sick all over. When the stomach fails to digest its food, you are standing at the threshold of a series of ailments that may end in a complete physical wreck. Internal health means health throughout the body. Keep your stomach and other digestive organs clean and vigorous by giving them the natural stimulation of the roots, barks and herbs contained in Tanlac. Tanlac is wonderful for indigestion and constipation—gas, pains, nausea, dizziness and headaches. It brings back lost appetite, helps you digest your food, and gain strength and weight. Tanlac is as free from harmful drugs as the water you drink. It contains mineral drugs; it is made of roots, barks and herbs, nature's own medicines for the sick. For over 10 years it has been recommended by druggists who have watched its marvelous results. The cost is less than 2 cents a dose. Get a bottle of Tanlac from your druggist and give it a thorough trial. Your money back if it doesn't help you. Tanlac 52 MILLION BOTTLES USED HEALTH HEAD AGAINST RACIAL BARS Harlem Hospital Charges Delayed 'Officially,' Commissioner Avers Plaints Lodged With Mayor Not Transmitted to Head of City Institutions; Shroeder Pledges Square Deal The loud plaint of Harlem medical men and citizens expressed following the dismissal of Dr. Godfrey Nurse from his post as assistant visiting adjunct in surgery at Harlem Hospital has not "officially" reached the ears of the head of the city hospitals, Dr. William Shroeder, commissioner of hospitals, told The Amsterdam News in an interview last Tuesday. Charges of color prejudice and discrimination in favor of white doctors flung at Dr. John F. Conners, chief of the medical service, have gone to Mayor Walker, but have not been forwarded to the hospital head, the Commissioner said, Dr. Shroeder stated, however, that he has learned of discontent with the officials of Harlem Hospital through unofficial channels. An investigation of the case of Dr. Nurse and of the hospital was asked by the North Harlem Medical Association. The plaints laid before Mayor Walker charged that Negro physicians and surgeons are held to the lowest posts on the staff, while white men are advanced without serving apprenticeships.

Commissioner Shroeder said. "We are not concerned with whether a man is colored or white, but with giving city patients as high type of service as is offered in any other hospital." The Commissioner pledged himself to investigate any charge of injustice in the hospital system. "Harlem can be assured," he said, "of getting the best hospital supplies and service that the city can pay for." No immediate radical changes are contemplated for Harlem Hospital, Dr. Shroeder stated. He is continuing his study of the city institutions and will not order any changes in personnel or operation until investigation warrants them.

A warring faction, headed by Fletcher McDougail, 123 West 128th street, opposed Harry Henley, president, and began promotion of a separate dance a few weeks ago, retaining the name of Osbiny. McDougail claims fourteen of the club's reported twenty members. The original group sought an order restraining the insurgents from having a dance on Friday night and a permanent one preventing use of the club name by the rebels. The two wings aired their grievances last Wednesday in Supreme Court before Justice Townley. The left wing defended itself by charging one-man rule. The restraining order was denied on grounds that the action was instituted too late.

Aside from personal services donated by several professional men and women, according to Mrs. Estelle Caution, director of the Home, monetary contributions are given yearly by The Utility and Debutante Clubs, several local churches and fraternal organizations. The Nongkwase Literary and Social Club gives four boxes of soap a year; the Satellite Club of Abyssinian Baptist Church, a pound party; another club from the same church and a group from Brooklyn, the year's supply of sugar.

Thirteen couples would be ideal—and you could come dressed as one of the thirteen original colonies. As hostess, it would be appropriate for you to be a Colonial dame, with powdered hair, while your husband or partner could represent Washington. The colonies, you know, are Virginia, New Jersey, Massachusetts, New York, New Hampshire, Maryland, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, North Carolina, South Carolina, Pennsylvania and Georgia.

Looking Your Best BY FANNETTE Cleansing Your Face One of the most important factors to be observed in having a good complexion is to cleanse your face thoroughly before retiring. This frees the pores of the dirt particles, rouge and powder that are sure to accumulate during the day. Rub a good cold cream into the face and allow it to remain a few minutes. Then remove it with a tissue paper handkerchief. These save your face towels from the grease and grime which are so hard to remove. Then wash your face in warm water and a mild soap; rinse it in cold water, as this tends to decrease the size of the pores. Don't irritate the skin in removing the make-up. The important thing, however, is to make sure that it is entirely removed. Make-up does the skin no good when it remains on over night.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN Dangerous Passion I have been married for eight years. My husband is good to me and to our two children, but I seem to have lost all love for him. In fact, I don't believe I ever did love him, but married him out of pity. He is 46 years old and I am 35. We have a boarder, a young man I know I love. He is just a little younger and he's in love with me, too. We have had an affair of which my husband is beginning to be suspicious. He has ordered my lover to go, but if he does go, I'll go too. Your letter is one of the most selfish I have ever read. You married out of pity. You don't love your husband. You are unhappy. You are trying to find happiness. Every single statement you made shows that you are thinking of yourself and yourself only. What difference does the happiness of two children, your own flesh and blood too, and a good husband make to you? If you go with this boarder, you'll not be hurting anyone as much as you will yourself. When the lover fires of you, you'll probably return to find that some other woman has won your husband's affection.

This afternoon, in the Anderson Galleries at 489 Park avenue. there will be another sale—the gold pen with which President Lincoln signed the proclamation emancipating the four million or more slaves on Jan 1, 1863, is among the offerings in this sale of Americana. The story goes that Louis Burgdorf, a favorite messenger in the White House, held the proclamation smoothly on a table while the President signed it. Immediately after the signing President Lincoln gave the pen he used to Burgdorf. A week later Burgdorf obtained the table and gave it to Daniel Nash Morgan, who passed it, with authenticating documents, to the Connecticut State Library, its present owner. Although three people are claiming ownership of the instrument used by Lincoln, 'twould be appropriate for the Public Library of New York City to purchase the original pen, if such is possible, and place it in a show case at the West 135th street branch, along with the rare collection of Africana and Negro Americana assembled by and purchased from Arthur A.

Best Sport Pages in Greater New York Renaissance Five Downs American League Stars in Game Last Sunday Renaissance Five Downs American League Stars in Game Last Sunday Also Won From Newark Triangles on Friday—Douglas Enjoyed Sunday Game From Box—Hakoahs, With Nat Holman, Here Sunday (By FRANCIS) Last Sunday night at the Renaissance Casino a capacity crowd saw the Ft. Wayne team of the American League go down to a crushing defeat at the hands of the Renaissance Five by the score of 58 to 29. Appearing for the first time at the Harlem court, and with two victories over the crack colored balltossers, the Ft. Wayne team appeared calm and confident during their warm-up period; but the champions, with their convalescent manager, Bob Douglas, looking on from a box seat, radiated determination as they too went through their paces. Deafening cheers greeted both teams as they lined up for Referee Chris. Huiswoud's whistle, and were introduced by Announcer Detrich. The starters for the Rens were Saitch and Ricks, forwards; Sanders, center; Jenkins and Mayers, guards; for the Ft. Wayne team, Borgeman and Rusty Saunders, forwards; Chadwick, center, and Sy Miller and Glasco, guards. Miller scored the first point of the game when he made good a free try from the foul line, but this was instantly matched by Ricks, who made good his foul effort. Both teams seemed to be feeling out each other; the Rens, however, appeared satisfied with the situation, after a minute or so, and immediately launched the well-known Renaissance offensive with Jenkins and Ricks alternating in scintillating shots whenever opportunity presented itself. Meanwhile an impregnable Renaissance defense was offering inmountable difficulties to the Hoosiers, who were making Herculean efforts to get past this barrier to get a safe shot at their basket for needed points, but so perfect were the Rens in defense, that during the first ten minutes of play the visitors could only make six points via the foul line, making good on every line. Y. M. D. JUNIORS DEFEAT TROJANS On Saturday night, February 23, the Trojan Athletic Club journeyed to Carlton to play the second game of a series of three. The first game with Trojans ended in a 17-17 deadlock. This game was played on December 29. The Trojan team, a sneedy aggression of basketball Saitch, through injury, was replaced by Capt. Siecum, with no slow down of the devastating shelling by the Renaissance sharpshooters. After an exceedingly fast and sizzling twenty minutes the first half ended with the score 32 to 18 in favor of the Renaissance. After the usual rest period they returned to the court and the Rens continued where they left off, with Jenkins skinned running and Rens in the first frame. It was not long before the only question in doubt was the size of the score, a fact that the Ft. Wayne team seemed to realize, after which they apparently gave up all further efforts to win as futile. Jenkins was the high score man of the game, with 10 floor goals and three fouls for 23 points. Pappy Ricks was close behind with 8 floor goals and two fouls for 4 and two for ten points, led the visitors. Every man on the Renaissance contributed his full share to the victory. On Washington's Birthday night the Newark Triangles, who substituted for the Fatserson team of the American League, who had to play a league game, were slaughtered by the Rens by a score of 63 to 23. Jenkins was again top score man in the game. Fatserson played this game, and turned in a neat piece of work that reminded us of Jack Murray, one of the best arbiters in the game. For next Sunday night, Nat Holman and his HakaoH team will lock horns with the Rens in the fourth game of their series. The Rens won the first, but dropped the next two games, and Philadelphia won. The Rens are out to cop this game and even up the series, and the HakaoHs can be relied upon to try to stop the colored champs in their effort. A great game should be the result. The HakaoHs have recently whipped the Vistation Triangles and are apparently playing at the top of their form, with the HakaoHs showing on Friday and Sunday night, hitting on all five ends. In the preliminary games on Friday night the Red Wings defeated the Langston team 32 to 30 and on Sunday night the Scholastics handed out a surprise whipping to the Metro-Diamonds, 32 to 20.

JUNIORS DEFEAT TROJANS On Saturday night, February 23, the Trojan Athletic Club journeyed to Carlton to play the second game of a series of three. The first game with Trojans ended in a 17-17 deadlock. This game was played on December 29. The Trojan team, a speedy aggregation of basketball players, demonstrated the same type of game that ended in a tie. The Trojan team was able to begin, neither team being able to boost as much as a two-point lead. When the final whistle blew the score stood 18-13, then necessitating a five-minute overtime period, many wrills were played during these five minutes. First one team and then the other had possession of the ball, but were unable to break through and score. One team shot by Hinds during the last two minutes of play decided the game. The final score: Cariton, 19; Trolans, 18. The Trojans will be booked for an attendance. Carlton before the season is over. Defender Girls in 11-11 Tie On Feb. 8, Friday evening, at St. Marks Church gym, a neck to neck game was played between the Celestials and a Defender. The Celestials took its turn to start the game and held a 60 'end before forward Sara Pollard scored the Defenders' five points, which made an even score, 5-5. The Defenders scored another field score, while a foul shot was made by Defenders' center, Pauline Moore, ending first half score, 7-6, favoring Celestials. The defenders opened with strong offense, staging a spirited rally in the closing moments of play, which put the Defenders in the lead, 11-10. A foul netting netted a tie score, 11-11. Numerous players on both sides throughout the game. This game was close from start to finish: thrilling, speedy and interesting. The game ended abruptly with minute laps through the error of the referee. Goals Fouls Total I. Robinson, rf. 0 2 6 S. Pollard, lf. 2 2 6 P. Moore, c. 1 1 3 V. Jackson, rg. 0 0 0 D.

Chambers, 234 West 120th street, that she and her crippled son Duncan, 10, had been denied admission to the orchestra section early last Wednesday afternoon.

The afternoon prices are 25 cents for either balcony or orchestra seats and 35 cents for boxes; the evening prices, 50 cents for balcony and orchestra seats and 65 cents for boxes. When the orchestra is overcrowded persons of both races are sent to the balcony. When orchestra seats are plentiful, white patrons may sit where they please, while colored patrons are told by the cashier that only balcony seats are available. If a colored patron attempts to pass the female usher at the door in an effort to get to orchestra seats, he or she is usually restrained by force and the usher insists that they sit in the balcony. Well, you might see the manager, and he tells you the same thing, and is always disinclined to discuss the matter, except to say that there are no orchestra seats left. After Mrs. Chambers bought her matinee tickets—the seats are not reserved—she was told they were only good for the balcony. She explained that, on account of her son being crippled, it would be a hard life for him to be in the balcony, and she demanded orchestra seats, whereas her tickets were, in fact, good for orchestra seats, just the same. "I'm willing to be made to look cheap," she told the manager, "if you will just allow me to look in to see what the orchestra are like, because I believe you are like." She told him very frankly what she thought of the rottenness of segregating Negroes in "cheap houses," whereas they are allowed to sit anywhere in nearly every high-class theatre in the city. Identically, Mrs. Chambers is chief of Fox's Crotona Theatre, 177th street and Park avenue, where she has seven girls under her management. Reporter Calls Bluff The reporter, in company with William Smith, 117 West 143d street, and Russell Joell, 212 West 133d street, bought afternoon tickets and demanded orchestra seats.

F YOU should ask any old-time ball player what he thinks of this modern game of baseball and the way it's conducted, you would very likely receive, as an answer, a long or short discourse on how things used to be in his day, etc. They will tell you about days when players so loved the game that a broken finger, a lame leg or a spiked foot were minor injuries of everyday occurrences. A player would have to be using a crutch before he could be kept out of a game in those days, the old-timer will say with pride. He will filing the word "Romance" at you (I believe he gets that word from the writings of Billy Evans, ex-umpire), and tell you how lively, sentimental and romantic the sport used to be in his day. The teacher then tells you of his contact with the greats and near greats of the past. Most of the old-timers think that "contact" has had considerable to do with the status of colored baseball today. They will point to the fact that in the old days colored teams were playing big league teams in midseason. The Cuban X Giants, under E. B. Lamar's management, played a two-game engagement with the league team on their home grounds at Cincinnati, Ohio. The Cuban Giants played St. Louis National League team a Sunday game during the league's playing season, and many other incidents of close contact with the real powers of baseball could be noted here, but old-timers give 'em to you so fast you are due to miss some of them. But what strikes me quite forcibly is this "contact" phase of baseball. After a few days of playing, the team's attitude of big league managers and players toward the colored boys led quite a few of us to vision colored teams playing on all the big league grounds in the country. Our opinion is, it might have been, and let us hope, it might be. We have in mind two of the greatest managers ever in the game; men of high standing and influential in all matters appertaining to the game. Both of these men have shown on more than one occasion that they were inclined toward helping colored players. We will cite several instances where Connie Mack and John McGraw contributed largely towards helping our cause in their own profession. During the season of 1900 Connie Mack was at the head of the Milwaukee, Western League team. In the spring and fall he barnstormed with the Columbia Giants of Chicago. The Chicago team was managed by John McGraw and the Columbia, a colored player on his team; what's more, Connie knew it. When the American League placed a team in Philadelphia with Mack at the head, the Athletic grounds, when not being used by the home team, were always available to colored teams. Later, when the Athletics were not playing a world's series they would be playing the Philadelphia Giants a series of games. Things like that were of wonderful help to colored players. John McGraw, thorough baseball man when it comes to playing the game, looked no further than a man's ability. He braved public opinion in palming a colored ball player off for an Indian. "Pop" Watkins received many letters of encouragement from Mr. McGraw. "Pop" was the man who brought Cockrell. Allen and other good boys from the South. Mr. McGraw sent the New York Giants over to Paterson to play Dick Coogan's team. He was the first to paterson that "This team is a gang of Negroes," McGraw said. "I know it, or I play 'em. But it seems like these men have got away from us now and the only thing to do is to make the best of it. Walter Schilchter, the McMahon Bros., and J. W. Connor, if he could have been handled, are the men whose methods of handling sporting events would have boosted colored baseball to its proper place in sportsdom. Schilchter and the McMahons knew the value of publicity and knew how to get it. J. W. Connor was right with them in that respect. They are not in the game now and I know the reason. If the Negro American League secures the stadium at Philadelphia for their league games it will be a wonderful stride toward the goal this humble old-timer has in view for our baseball. Pittsburgh muffet a great chance to advance the game when they failed to support a proposition that involved the erection of a playing field for all sports and civic demonstrations with a stand seating fifteen or twenty thousand people. cony because the orchestra was crowded. He would not commit himself upon any racial policy. "All right, we'll wait until we can get orchestra seats, because we're not going to sit upstairs," the manager was told. He offered to refund the price of the tickets, but his offer was refused. One of the white feathers on the orchestra floor declared that they would segregation when orchestra seats were available. "But you'll have to wait until 5:30 (two hours)," she said. "We'll wait," said the reporter, and the manager approached the three young men and said: "Boys, why raise a disturbance; listen to reason." "We're not raising a disturbance," was the reply. "We're quietly waiting for orchestra seats." He walked away. When the crowd left the orchestra door at the end of the afternoon show the three young men walked in and occupied orchestra seats undisturbed. The entire floor was less than one-third occupied. The reporter left his seat in the orchestra and approached the cashier again, asking for an orchestra seat at the evening price of 50 cents. "Balcony seats only," said the white girl. She was thoroughly vexed when the reporter reminded her that she had just left the orchestra practically empty. She then said she had been ordered to sell balcony seats only. The reporter walked away. A white couple came to the window and asked for orchestra seats. The cashier peeped out to see if the reporter was still there. He was. She then induced the white patrons to accept "balcony seats" at 50 cents each. The reporter rushed up to the window. "What do you want?" "A balcony seat!" said the reporter. Bolling over with resentment but saying nothing, the cashier first reached for a brown ticket, then quickly changed her mind and sold the reporter a ticket similar to the Cashier Vexed "What do you want?" he player what he thinks of the modern conduct, you would very likely retest discourse on how things used to be about days when players so loved the leg or a spiked foot were minor injury would, have to be using a crutch game in those days, the old-timer will need Rompout at you I.

At the point the first usher, with Smith and Joan, reported waiting told her fellow worker that it was all right to pass the reporter into the orchestra section.

The Collegiate basketball team, one of the best amateur teams in the Metropolitan district and has a very strong following. The Carlton Young Men's Division team, which has made quite a record in the past two years, has also made a strong attempt to uphold the hopes of the Brooklyn basketball following their attack upon the Collegians on March 2. The game is predicted to be one of the most interesting and exciting games of the season. This game, originally scheduled for March 9, was changed in order that the Collegians might fulfill an engagement with Morgan College. The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity game, which will be played on March 9, Alpha is one of the outstanding fraternity teams of New York and will push the Carlton tossers to the limit. The basketball following of Brooklyn guaranteed much of the success of basketball on these two dates. March 2 and March 9. Wins Blue Ribbon at West Point Horse Show WEST POINT, N.

St. Barnabas, having lost to St. Philip's in their first game of the league, came back strong and defeated St. Peter Claver to the time of 12-10.

Meeting Peerless Five at Renaissance Casino Here Tonight, Tuesday, 26 TO FACE MORGAN COLLEGE Will Also Meet Team of the Briscoe Athletic Club in Philadelphia While the Amsterdam News is being distributed all over Greater New York tonight, the crack Collegians will be in action against the Peerless Five of Philadelphia at the Renaissance Casino and the signs all point to another victory for the New Yorkers despite the claims of Philadelphia as to the worth of their Peerless basketeers. This game is the opening title of an intensive drive among the stronger teams for the Collegians, who will face the well-known and able Morgan College Five here on March 9. The Collegians will make the trip to Baltimore to face the Morganites the coming Friday night and will try to administer the first defeat to the Collegians on their own stamping grounds before bringing them to New York. On March 8, the night before they again meet the Morgan college players, the New Yorkers will travel to the University of Chicago, Bruce A. Clouse. It is.

Of the 15 Collegians hit the trail again when they hop a train to meet the Peerless Five on the latter's own stamping grounds in a return engagement. One of the strongest basketball teams in he country is the Peerless Five, who come to the fore with a rush and piled up one of the best records of any basketball team in the country. At their weight it is hard to find a team that can pull the trick will be well worthy of all the praise at the hands of newspaper writers.

In so many instances even learned editors have wasted a lot of space trying to make the yokels believe themselves heroes and the buffoons selected to cavort in the ring for the fun of the white folks are simply running true to a form almost given them by the same misguided editors running wild with a little mechanical learning. These gentlemen have made heroes out of water carriers and bootlegged them to the beach, but the gentlemen of color will stage a battle royal as a preliminary to the push and pull of the palms wherein two mediocre white fighters will try to appear as present-day gladiators. In civilized communities the battle royal has been a thing of the past for ages, being that it was in the nature of that rare sport of the gods which held good at Coney Island some years ago, when some misguided son of Ham would offer his head as a target to hurl baseballs at, not only for the children of the parvenu white American, but the descendants of the sum of Europe readily following a form of amusement which appealed to them because of the serfdom from whence they came to enjoy the open-air games and contributed to it, which they being constantly denied, by the sweat of their brow watered the land in the Southern States and made it fertile. Jack Dempsey, who religiously refrained from giving Harry Wills a chance at the world's title, and who in the early days of his career in the roped arena appeared right here in Harlem and had some of his ribs caved in by another fighter of color by the name of John Lester Johnson, is the moving spirit in the affair which will bring together ten colored men from the bottoms to aimlessly belt each other for a few dollars. The spectacle which these misguided children and grandchildren of Uncle Tom will cut will not be a pretty one, and the remarks that will be hurled at them would perhaps serve a splendid purpose if, by any chance, they should reach the ears of those damphools who helped to swell the crowd at Manhattan Casino the night Dempsey appeared to help pull a crowd for two well-known comedians celebrating something or other. The queen butcher who helped the crowd that he would to keep the dignified masters of the art of pugilism of the race from enjoying their rightful place in the arena. However, as we intimated in our opening paragraph, we must ask the good Lord to forgive them, for those who have enjoyed many years of a wider freedom in places removed from the benighted South have shown no superior qualities when it comes to clowning and licking the boot that gives the kick. WHAT IS TRUE SPORTSMANSHIP? MANY years ago we had occasion to be invigued into visiting the office of a Philadelphia paper and, after greetings back and forth, we decided to amble forth on our way. As we were about to leave, the thought came to us that we would like to see a copy of the publication coming off the press at the time, and expressed such a desire. The lady behind the wire cage handed us a copy, but immediately reminded us that the paper cost ten cents. It has been an unwritten law among the genynt that, as a matter of courtesy, especially on a good-will visit, that a copy of a paper given to a brother newspaperman is but an added gesture of friendship. Which drives us to wonder how a paper can preach good sportsmanship and not live it. The other day we had occasion to visit Philadelphia again and, in the interest of a big benefit being staged this very night, made a request that a little recognition be given the affair by the same paper. Did they accede to our request, even for the sake of charity? Read on, friends, read on. The sport and theatrical writers of the Pittsburgh Courier, the Baltimore Afro-American, the Chicago Defender, the New York Age, all showed the spirit of good and true sportsmanship by not only giving space to the benefit in mind, but went out of their way to display the matter. The Pittsburgh Courier, the editorial department of which has been openly against the people for whom the benefit is being staged, forgot all grievances when we gave the opportunity to share what lie in the principles of true sportsmanship by giving special attention to the matter. The Philadelphia Tribune, the paper we have reference to in anything caustic that can be found in these lines, came out with about two or three inches of the affair AFTER AN ADVERTISEMENT HAD BEEN PLACED IN ITS COLUMNS WITHOUT THE SANCTION OF THOSE RUNNING THE BENEFIT. Some weeks ago, while in Philadelphia, one of the gentlemen connected with the Tribune promised to let us have a cut of the wife of the popular sport writer, W. Rollo Wilson, but, even when the request went in through Mr. Wilson at our urgent request, the plate was not forthcoming. The spirit of true sportsmanship which exists in the fraternity of newspaper writing sports and theatricals is badly lacking "higher up" in the Tribune and, in taking up this space to say so, we are simply adhering to a principle of openly saying what we have to say and not wasting time deploring such things behind closed doors. Is it any wonder, then, that we read with a smile of sarcasm the value of the newspaper publishers and editors to come together for the common good? We have before us the copy of the New York News of last week in the editor, uncle W. Rollo Wilson, an empty gesture, which smacks of an attempt to unthink the unthinking that he is willing and anxious to cooperate with others towards such an end, at the same time takes occasion to point out the faults (if faults they be) of another editor, and naively concludes that he could not, in the interest even of his public, demand an accounting at the hands of an institution trying to cater to the public. We also have before us a copy of the New York Age, which makes a plea for bonafide editors and publishers to get together for the common good, and at our right rests a copy of The Amsterdam-News, which tells the New York Age that it must conform to certain things before The Amsterdam News can condescend to come together with it or with anybody, Great Britain, in taking credit for the winning of the late World's War, like every other nation on the side of the Allies has done, the world that they own because of the true sportsmanship as exemplified on浸透 fields. With a dumbbness which we hope will be received with a display of tolerance at the hands of our readers we would have accepted the plea of the New York Age in good faith and put it to the only test which we believe such a thing should be put, and that was to get as many of the gentry the Age had designated to CALL BROTHER MOORE. There, in the sanctum of his office and with a show of Friendliness all around, we believe could have been planted the seed of UNDERSTANDING—the only thing which will bring men together to accomplish anything for the common good. America could have told France when the country of the tri-color made her plea for help, that certain faults had to be corrected before America could fold, that it would have to be corrected before America could Flanders Fields, but they all recognized that they had to come together for THE COMMON GOOD, and their leaders gathered around tables FOR AN UNDERSTANDING. Shuucks! If we want to know where we would have been without that UNDERSTANDING, let us read and digest what the late President Roosevelt had to say about it. So, gentlemen, the Philadelphia Tribune lacks the understanding which should make it respond to the teachings of true sportsmanship; therefore, what can one expect when learned editors are totally devoid of the urge for that true understanding which will make it possible for them to get together. It is the opinion of this writer that the other editors would have given a real display of TRUE SPORTSMANSHIP BY CALLING ON EDITORS BEFORE STANDING OFF AND SMIPING IN THE GOOD OLD WAY. The gentlemen of the Eastern Sport Writers' Association have set an example to editors and publishers which could be followed to good effect. We could cite examples of that spirit of true sportsmanship on the part of W. Rollo Wilson, Joe Rainey, Samuel Lacy, William Clarke and others of the association of which we have the honor-of being, president that would make the learned heads in high places open their eyes wide in wonder. Truly, we of the sporting and theatrical world would be glad to be the ones following instead of being forced to lead. Let the Philadelphia Tribune step down and allow the local editor and publishers assembled around the banquet table of good-fellowship, as we of the Eastern Sport Writers' Association have done, accept the motto: ALL FOR ONE AND FOR ALL. Selahi whatever that means.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1929 HOWARD LOSES TO MORGAN Washington Made Desperate Effort to Come From Behind Baltimore, Md., Feb. 18.—The Morgan Bear again proved his mastery over the Howard Bison, winning from the Howard aggregation with a score of 39-25. The game was played in the New Albert Auditorium in Baltimore and was the second defeat which Howard has suffered at the hands of Morgan College during the present season. The teams seemed to be fairly evenly matched during the first period with the fast floor work of the two guards. Wheatley of Morgan, and Harris of Howard, together with the shooting of Cbates and Simpson, who for the time kept pace at least in field goals with Jones and Clark. Morgan stars. Aided by accurate shots from the foul line Morgan was able to hang up a five-point lead at half time, score 14 to 9. In the second half Howard made a desperate effort to come from behind, but to no avail against the accurate shots of the entire Morgan team. Both Wood and Forsythe of Howard were held scoreless. Hall, star on the Howard freshman team, was sent in for Wood during the latter part of the second half. He was handed two games, but the rapid succession, while Coates scored another one of his long shots from the center of the floor. After securing a safe lead, Coach Tilson sent an second team, who seemed able to put up a stone wall defense in the remaining few moments of play. Jones and Clark won high point-honors with 15 and 12, respectively, while Howard's best were 6 by Coates and 5 by Simpson.

The game was featured by the sensational playing of Captain "Bob" Drain of Sigma, who was high scorer in the game. He forwarded a forward that every team fears. He shot, dribbled and passed so accurately and fast that Kappa was at a loss how to stop him. Another sensation of the forward of Sigma, Geel Jarvis. The way he shifted and plotted on those Kappa boys was a joke. He was in and out, here and there and no one knew when, where he came and there. Size is no handican to him.

Judged by the enthusiasm of the patrons, the crowd of jiggers trotted busily than any in their memory. Johnson certainly was a "hit." The audience cheered him to the echo when he told of his greatest ring battles, they marvelled at his powerful figure as he donned a pair of gloves and fighting togs and they roared with laughter as he toyed with one of the comedians, fighters and audience. The consensus of opinion of the patrons was that he is almost as good an actor as he was a great fighter. Johnson has promised to reveal some of the intimate secrets of the prize ring which the world thought were greatest losers of the Rockford before he terminates his week's engagement at the Lincoln Theatre. The musical revue, which is being presented around Jack Johnson, is one of the finest Harlem has ever seen. It kent the audience applauding and rocking with laughter. The feature act in the revue is that of Al Moore and Freddie Washington, two of the greatest dancers on the stage. Their hair has just returned from an engagement of two years in the capitals of Europe, where they were one of the great sensations of the stage. They rendered a tango and a Chinese dance which brought storms of applause. In addition to those mentioned above, the music of jazz Rhyton Capers" includes Troy Brown, the fat and funny comedian; Skeet Winston, Ozle McPherson, one of the greatest blues singers, and Howard Elmore, a sweet-voiced tenor and solendil dramatic artist. There is a fine chorus and a red hot jazz band under the direction of Puggsley. The photoplay feature for the week is "Underworld Dramat "Ouifast"" starring Corinne Griffith and Edmund Lowe. The Lincoln Theatre has taken on new life and vigor under its new management and will visit there mean an afternoon or evening spent most enjoyably.

"BLACKBIRDS" HAVEN'T GOT WEARY YET GIVE the average musical show eight months or so on Broadway and watch it cool off in the let-down room. The original sparkle of vixenity seem to be almost an ipsevitable for it as discolouration of the stage, and Players rise to the fire; and all play that is all work is apt to make Jack a dull boy on the stage. But the exception to the rule pointed out in the case of Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds" still in their scintillating performance. Anyone who makes a point of seeing this show periodically—and in social circles it is considered the thing that will fall to advert to the fact that the entertainers keep well on the upgrade in the qual- and enthusiasm of their performers. The dancing feet execute their intricate patterns with grace before former dancers, the dancers shoulder with continually increasing agitation; the burden of melody and mounting crest of concerted fervor; the comedians are constantly discovering new ways to show keeps keyed to the top pitch of originality and wild abandon. The comedians don't go stale. They still up in the air with the joy of their performance. And that, in substance, is the secret of the box office receipts, for that is only secondary; but success in registering them to life and devilty; their stance tasks do not pal on them; the keeps go on because the "Blackbird's lion" Delving a bit deeper into the pay- schooling of our children, we find a widow that the colored entertainers' sense of humor is standing them in good stand in their ever revilliant ability to good natured, their fun at the spectacle of each other's antics on the stage scenes, and their conversely the practice of nursing each other's guts to a maximum felicity before the footlights guidal intimacy when amongst themselves. They have found the true sig- nality with you."

A city of more than 200,000 inhabitants, nearly all of whom are New Yorkers. The city is a unique playground of New York City, and we are informed that it never takes a recess. Much has been written about Harlem life that is misleading. Various shows have depleted the wild, no-normal life of a city mills—mills, runners, banners, bootleggers, gamblers, but there is another phase of Harlem life, while not so pictureque or spectacular from a featurewriter or a dramatist's point of view, but with a commendable: it is the cultural life of Harlem. Harlem has its magnificent churches, its Y. M. C.

What "Hallelujah" Means to the Negro Race BY DANIEL HAYNES Leading Man in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's All Negro Drama, "Hallelujah." "To Be or Not to Be" has been the question for years as far as the Negro has been concerned in motion picture. Slowly rising from "atmosphere" to small "bits" and parts, in which he proved his worth and ability, the Negro has become a powerful force of agency and indifference and emerged in the light on the screen. With voices of power, singing rich, colorful harmonies, with native emotion, and with vigor, regeneration) the actors of the Negro race have assets which are proving a perfect medium for presenting their talents to the medium through the medium of the talking picture. And new, after years of heartbreaking struggle, yet always years of hope, we have learned that we express the thought in his heart. His chance has come. There have been few who can really sympathize with and appreciate the joys, sorrows, and sorrow of his life. We have the medium of the talking picture, we hope to become articulate at last. As a deeply emotional race, patient, long suffering and without end, but always upward, to reach a goal which, we know, will mean much to us. And this is all expressed in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's "Halloughui," which has put on the silver screen an everlasting story of heart interest, full of romance, motherlove, hate savage repression and primal fear. The drama true in detail of Negro life in the South. This our race owes to King Vidor, whose gritty realism will illusory as of the greatest, most patient and forbearing screen directors who ever lived. He directed this drama, the pioneer Negro hundred per cent talking picture, we hope, the "Big Parade" of our race. And though dark, we hope that the new stars in this picture will shine brightly, and that of other races who have succeeded us. From the beginning of the picture the one and only thought in the hearts of all people is that it is possible for other members of our race to follow in our footsteps. It is not what the picture will do for me or anyone else in the cost that has been paid for. The mind is far bigger than our own individual successes. We are trying to pave the way for others of our people to follow and cheerful rivalry in felching big differences. What are some of the reasons for the perennially fresh appeal of the colored revue.

Girl Friend: Come, hold your breath. Misses Lydia Mason and Andrades Lindsay, gifted young pianists, were presented in recital at the Imperial Elks' Auditorium on Sunday afternoon under the auspices of the New York branch of the National Association of Negro Musicians. The players have been heard here in recital work for the past few years. Both Miss Mason and Miss Lindsay have made people progress in their music, now having a good hand of the keyboard and pedals, with due mention of their artisite maturity and profundity of con The two artists began their program with a scholarly reading of "Bach's Sicilienne," followed by the "Scherzo" by Haydn and concluding the first group with the technically brilliant "Allegro con Spirito" from a Mozart Sonata. With Miss Mason at first plano, they achieved a high degree of brilliance without any untidy mark of hardship to production. Miss Mason inherited spright brise as to her colorful treatment of the "Allegro con Spirito" by her musically phrasing and firm sense of assurance. We are now concerned with the real measures of Miss Lindsay's ability. She was at her best in the solo parts of second group—that of the French romantic school. Here Miss Lindsay also achieved a high degree of brilliance, although in the vivacious "Pas Des Cymbales" by Chaminade, we feared a slight disturbance of phrase balance and an unconscious increase in speed until her listeners were afraid of a lack of clarity. But with all, Miss Lindsay was master of the situation and kept her audience dazled by reason of its outstanding bravado. In the third group of modern Debussy numbers both artists had a conception of the moods and descriptive intent of the compositions, vividly suggestive. They gave a subtle and delicate handling of the Arabesque. Doctor Gradusad Paranassim, also Debussy's well-known Gollwang's Cake Walk. The program was concluded with a group of varied composers — Rachmaninoff, Schopin, Schubert, Lustz and Dott. Encores were written. The Scherling by an unfamiliar modern French composer was especially impressive. Particularly noticeable throughout the entire program was the undue amount of care used to maintain IRWIN COMPANY will be located at 2380 Seventh Avenue, corner of 139th Street, on and after MARCH 16th.

SECOND SECTION Listen, Folks Listen BY JIM HAYSEED Silence, Please Industrious Scamp To a Loved One MUSIC BY FRANKYE A. DIXON. Mason-Lindsay Piano Recital equal balance of tone and rhythmic exactness. A slight retard in the actual tempo of Rachmannloff's G minor Prelude and Dett's Juba Dance was effected, no doubt, to avoid a lack of control which frequently leads to phrase disturbance. The recital on a whole revealed a growth of musical vision on the part of both artists, as well as their supporters, comprised of a large number of music lovers. It is gratifying to diligent students laboring to attain a round on the ladder of success. The association is to be commended for its admirable work and should be encouraged to assist and cultivate musical gifts among talented deserving Negro youths by the fostering of such recital activities. This intention was expressed by their competent president. Miss Minnie Brown. Landay Hall Recital A program of two-piano music was given by Carrie Burton Overton and Beryl Paul Outerbridge at Landay Hall on Monday evening. Mesdames Overton and Outerbridge played to an audience obviously assembled for the purpose of adulation. The artists, assuming the intimacy was kindly meant, lent their full efforts toward making it an evening well worth 'remembering. Each pianist rendered a group of solos aside from their other endeavors. They were supported by Leon Johnson, tenor, in a group of songs. Mr. Johnson was provided with the excellent accompaniment of Lydia Mason. Oddly enough, it was an evening that afforded a great measure of interest as well as musical entertainment and humor. Southern Tenor Announces Program The southern tenor, Rudolph Gaston Scott, who was believed by many who heard him last year in a convict scene in the pageant presented in Symphony Hall, Boston, to be Roland Hayes in disguise, has announced the following as his tentative program to be given Tuesday evening.

TEN Pastors in Pulpit Exchange Sunday Pastors in Pulpit Exchange Sunday Stalwart Divine of Nazarene Church Took Pulpit of White Minister An exchange of pastors for the purpose of bringing closer relationship between the white and colored congregations of the Protestant faiths brought Dr. John Howell Mellish, pastor of the Holy Trinity Episcopal Church, to the pulpit of the Nazarene Congregational Church, Grand avenue pastor Lefferts place, Sussex, England, where the Rev H. H. Proctor, pastor of the Nazarene Church, preached at Holy Trinity. Dr. Mellish deplored the erection of barriers against the colored man and combated the charges that the race problem was to be found in the work of justice. "All that any race asks," said Dr. Mellish, "is if the individual shows work, and the status as a man according to his worth. That was the standard of our Master. We should look at it, every race be it white or colored, and treat it according to the Christian standards." Deplores Layly in Courts. Dr. Melish denied the Negro is susceptible to a life of crime and scored conditions that he said exist in some cases. He said he could not obtain justice in the courts. He predicted that this would become a thing of the pass and an annoyance to the Negro as an individual worthy of his rights under the law. Is our genervation "continued" based on ignorance and intolerance that breeds racial hatreds. What untold wrongs this condition has brought on your race. What wrongs that have caused the work of Christ, who loved all men be they white or colored. The procrastination of Christians in practicum or beliefs is a thing to be lamented. Within a stone's throw the spot where sixty years ago Henry Ward the founder of the freedom of a Negro slave, Dr. H. H. Proctor, a clerk clergyman, Sunday night preached in Holy Trinity Church, at Montague and Clinton streets. The colored minister called Lincoln "the greatest ruler in history." Lincoln could not be the white man. Dr. Proctor said, "Lincoln had faith not only in his own race, but in the black man as the lawyer of the race." He said "Negroes in the United States are paying taxes on $2,000,000,000 worth of money," he wrote. "They have taken their places," he declared, "among the leaders in every field of endeavor. As examples he cited the colored artisans, Tanner, and the black musicians in a picture in the Louvre in Paris, and Du Bols. author of "The Souls of Colored Folk." He moved to a survey made recently which showed that there is a colored church in the center of every large city in the country. Dr. Proctor declared that "no one knows where the churches are by putting in the center of its cities churches supported by those people who are incorrigibly religious." The minister said that "America fails, because of the corruption of its cities."

B. Ursy, turned an afternoon prayer service at the Baptist Church last week. Baptist Church here last week leaped out of their news and stormed the pulpit. Order was not restored until a squad of police arrived in response to a call to headquarters. The appearance at the meeting of Attorney Sim Bender, who has offices in Chambers street, Manhattan, was one of the causes of the disturbance. Bender, who is white, is county clerk and a force Ursy from the church. The opposition to the pastor is said to be a trustee of the church. With the congregation split on the question of removing Ursy, charges and custody records were filed yesterday's meeting. Each side declared the other was armed, but the police reported there was no evidence that which asserts it is in the majority, charges the pastor with conducting church affairs in a highhanded manner. The pastor's private life, they said, is not that much to an minister of the group. They cluse, alleged numerous "vacations" and the recent acquisition of an au- tumnal supporters who contend the upheaval dates back to an unsuccessful effort to congratulate a pastor. The congregation was a prior when Sergt. Charles Touswma and Patrolmen Howard Pliger, attorney, arrived. Attorney Bender advised the church to call a business meet- ing, after the service groups of members gathered outside the church and argued as to who would be entitled to work. Pastor Ursy's faction insists only those whose subscriptions are paid to the church. Bender advised the Jones faction that all members who have not been paid to the business meeting. The Union Baptist Church was organized in 1922 and the present office on Mill Road was set up in 1925, after Ursy became pastor. Carlton Ave. Y.M.C.A. ROMEO L.

Changing the Baumes Laws Changing the Baumes Laws A BILL has been introduced in the Legislature to lessen the severity of the Baumes Laws. These laws provide that upon the fourth conviction of a person for crime he or she shall be sentenced to prison for life. Assemblyman Ambro's bill would leave it to judges to decide whether such a person should be sentenced for life or receive a sentence not less than twice as long as the longest permissible term for the first crime of which he was convicted. The Bar Association of New York City has voted approval of the Ambro bill. JUDGE ROSALSKY of the Court of General Sessions dissents vigorously. He wants the Baumes Laws retained in all their rigidity; he thinks that any relaxing of their provisions would only encourage the criminal elements. He says that too much has been said about the so-called hardships inflicted by these laws upon the offender and too little has been said about the hardships which the criminals inflict upon society. He believes that the occasional injustices of the laws can be guarded against or remedied by the power of executive clemency vested in the Governor. THAT THE BAUMES LAW may work occasional and even frequent injustice is well known. Under their strict interpretation a man may receive three sentences of sixty days for comparatively trivial offenses and on conviction for a fourth offense of the same kind be sentenced to jail for life. Thus, if you punch a man's nose for the fourth time you will never breathe the fresh air again. YET, THERE IS considerable point in Judge Rosalsky's argument. In these days, when society seems almost helpless before crooks and gangsters, when the criminal population is daily growing bolder and more numerous, when individual murders are supplanted by massacres, society should think twice before softening its laws. The Ambro bill, moreover, has a weak spot which attorneys for criminals will take instant advantage of. That weak spot is the proposal to leave the operation of the Baumes laws to the discretion of judges. The theory of American jurisprudence is that this nation shall have a government of laws and not of men. Judges are only men. With all their power, they are only instruments of the law, and the Ambro bill would make them the law itself. Years ago Justice Harlan of the United States Supreme Court inveighed against the tendency of that court to legislate, and the Ambro bill would encourage that tendency. The law of the land should be above the judges. THIS IS NOT SAYING that the Baumes Laws should stand as they are. They should be changed, but in a manner different from that suggested by the Ambro bill. They should be so altered that they would apply only to offenses of a serious nature, such as murder, burglary, swindling, arson, forgery and dope-selling. Even these would not have to be repeated three times; one commission of such crime could be made sufficient for life imprisonment even if the three other crimes were trivial. Such a law would unite severity with justice. Knocking Greatness Knocking Greatness A CYNIC who had never been known to praise anything surprised his friends one day by declaring that Harvard was far and away the greatest university in America. When asked for his reason he said that in traveling through the country he had heard Harvard knocked more than any other three universities. THIS SOUR COMMENT on humanity carries more than a grain of truth. The greatest men of history have generally been the most knocked men of their time. Imposing monuments are built in memory of George Washington, but while he lived he was called more names than any other man of his day. Historians have wondered if any other man of Civil War times could have stood the abuse that was heaped on Abraham Lincoln, in the North as well as the South. Twerfy years ago financiers and politicians could find nothing bad enough to say about Theodore Roosevelt. Andrew Jackson was so slandered that he fought duels with his illifiers. Thomas Jefferson was called a red-headed crook and coward. If other Presidents were not knocked so savagely it is perhaps because they were not great enough. WHICH is the most-knocked city in America? New York, of course, the greatest. And in the wide world of Negroes, which place is knocked more than any other ten places? Harlem. Negro Political Inertia "GREATER INFLUENCE as a group and as a race will be experienced by the Negro in devoting the same interest and energy to humanitarian effort as he devotes to politics," said Arthur W. Little, former colonel of the old Fifteenth Infantry, in a recent address at St. Mark's Church. WHEN WELL-WISHERS of the Negro start advising him they almost invariably tell him to pay less attention to politics. To hear them, one would think that the Negroes were the most active politicians in the country. The truth is that the Negroes, except in one or two cities, are the least active people politically in America. Most of them live in the South, and as they have no vote they cannot be active in politics. EVEN WHERE they can vote their political inertia is shameful. Harlem, for instance, has enough people for a voting strength of 100,000, yet Tammany Hall disliked the ```markdown ``` Coolidge and the Negro "Amalgamation Inevitable" THE MAN IN THE STREET Letters to the Editor to be published under this heading should be plainly written on one side of the paper only, and should not exceed 250 words in length. Your full name and address must be given, although this information does not necessarily have to be printed. United Colored Democracy because there were only 23,000 voters in Harlem, not enough to bother about. Harlem has had two chances to send a Negro to Congress, but not enough people took the trouble to register. Instead of too much energy in politics, the Negro is cursed with too little. DURING the presidential campaign of 1924 I wrote a release under the caption, this same caption. What I indited then in prospect has been fully vindicated by experience. Calvin Coolidge is the embodiment of the ideal American. He rarely rises above, and never sinks below, the divine average. He has many friends but few admirers. The whole nation, with regard to section or party, wanted him to continue in office; but none durst question his laconic decision—I do not choose to run." Congress respects the sincerity of his judgment and the genuineness of his decisions beyond those against other president in our annals, and fused endorsement of a larger proportion of his chief measures than it has withheld from any administration since Andrew Johnson. Coolidge now passes into private life with more friends and fewer enemies than any other American statesman. He will not rank in history as a great president, but as the most acceptable and generally approved of them all. President Coolidge has studiously and calculately avoided the race question as a political entity. The impulses of his Puritan heart beat true to the principle of right and wrong. He believes with a deep seated conviction in the fundamental purpose of the Fifteenth Amendment, but his shrewd Yankee sagacity cautioned silence where assertion could yield no fruition. He neither urges nor denies, but leaves us to infer what his basic principles are. Mr. Coolidge has been president for five years and six months. During that time he has not made a single, significant, original Negro "Am FOR some weeks there has has been going on in the Baltimore Afro-American a discussion as to whether amalgamation and so-called intermarriage will "solve the race problem." Prof. Kelly Miller, who began the discussion, declares that it will not; the Afro-American says that it will; while a symposium of readers seems equally divided on the matter. To my thinking, a discussion worded in this manner, though illuminating, taking a leap too far ahead. My reasons are as follows: The great and at present insurmountable obstacle to so-called intermarriage is the attitude of the white people—an attitude that springs from an almost incredible ignorance about the Negro his accustomed to on the one hand; and an exaggerated opinion about his vices and his shortcomings, on the other. The Negro and his white friends are always pointing to the marvelous progress the Negro has made in the shortest period in history, and the fact that the Negro has made unbelievably slow progress, namely, in the respect and the esteem of the white people. And until progress has been made in that direction, amalgamation and intermarriage, it is clear, will not take place. Human beings, in color, man and woman, gamate only with those considered their equal. The numbers of white Americans, no matter how friendly they seem, who really regard a Negro, however accomplished, their equal are as scarce as brains in the skulls of the buyers of luck powder. Of course, one may admire a r.n. and make a fuss over him without thinking him one's equal. To the white American, complexion is what titles of nobility are to Europenans and Asiatics, innumerable people could be given access to caste. Yes, caste is what we have to deal with in Amerien.

When collector of in New York retire THE EDITOR - Kelly Miller - Charles W. Anderson, Arthur Proe and Perry Howard were permitted to continue in office by hold-over tenure. The official positions in the South were lost to the Negro before President Coolidge's day. The appointment of Crum by Roosevelt and of Cohen by Harding were mere spectacular gestures. They kept open the door of hope, although no other Negro aspirant was expected to enter. The Haitian ministership and the recordership of the Treasury have passed from Ephriam's political allotment. The Rooseveltian policy of malgamation By J. A. ROGERS color is only a pretext and a defusion. Of course, after living for some time in Europe, and seeing the common-sense attitude of the Europeans toward color, I'll readily admit that about nine-tenths of — J. A. Rogera — white Americans are not sane where color is concerned. I'll readily admit them to one of three classes of imbeciles defined by a clever French columnist. "There are three classes of idiots," he said, "those who judge human beings by their names, by their noses, or by their color." Again, as in the case of the two kinds of Hindus just mentioned, the so-called Negro is sometimes referred to rather a lighter yellow, in complexity than the so-called white man. Now and then an American of higher casts has the courage to marry another of lower casts, as Kip Rhinelander, but the journals create such a scene as to discourage even the boldest for generations to come. Yes, the great obstacle that the Negro has to face is the Chinese published under this heading show is in length.

Moreover, frequently the buildings are filthy, the invasives are unfit for horses the cause there were only 23,000 to bother about. Harlem has to Congress, but not enough register. Instead of too much cursed with too little. appointing Negroes to conspicuous places in the North has not been sustained. When the present Negro collector of internal revenues of New York retires his successor will in all probability be white, since Mr. Coolidge's administration has established a deadline to the Negro's appointive hopes. He will release a one week. The fourth of March will be soon upon us. We cannot help but recall the great inaugurations in days gone by. Negro politicians flocked to the capital in uncounted numbers, with reasonable expectation to be chosen to fill high stations in the South, in Washington and in the foreign service. Now there are left only three or four comparatively minor places that they dare even to aspire to. The recordership of deeds, the ministorship to Liberia and possibly the assis-tion to the largely generalist constitute a political ambition. This well-known trend towards elimination, which has been going on for a generation, has climaxed under Coolidge. President Coolidge does not pose as a leader of public opinion but as a register of public sentiment. He knows with uncanny intuition just how far public sentiment will allow him to go. The Negro finds fault under his handling. But we are quarrelling with the wrong party in public opinion, rather than public opinion of other changed. Mr. Coolidge is not a great leader but a superlative follower. Indeed, he leads public opinion indirectly by following it. While Mr. Coolidge's administration has marked the downward trend of political favor towards the Negro, yet he has shown kindly personal interest and helpful spirit, outside of politics, whenever occasion presented itself. He has over and over again voiced his goodwill and education and general advancement. In several state papers he has gone on record against lynching, and has on Inevita wall of white caste, based on an astonishing ignorance and indifference concerning the Negro. The symposium conducted by the Afro-American brought out an astonishing letter from a man who was "passed for white" (long the years, among the whites, holds a position of high importance, and has children whom he says, regard Negroes as inferior and would fight to keep America white, if necessary. This correspondent advocated a slow process of marriage among the lighter Negroes and whites as a solution of the so-called problem, but the thing that struck me most in this letter was what he said about the intense ignorance among classes of whites regarding Negroes. A great many, he said, do not know the newspaper, and many when they see a Negro in a car think the car belongs to a white person, and so on. Here, indeed, is something for our Negro leaders to think about. The great problem of the Negro is not education of himself—that will go on now that it is started—but the education of the white American. Up to 1927 I read or consulted not less than about ninety per cent of the white population of Negro from the pan of white writers. During my years in the Pullman service I came in touch with thousands and thousands of whites, and talked with them, and I heard from the lips of the majority of them the same proportion of ignorance and misinformation as I had received from the writings of the Negro, and to say, that the majority have the bellum, Tom Dixon idea, slightly modified, of course. The vast majority of white Americans picture the Negro as a sort of jazzy, highly religious creature, with the instincts of a faithful dog, diseased, with low sexual morality, and copying the least desirable position in the labor markets; a cost of creature that one should by all means avoid being.

Marshall Wants Negroes to Read Editorial as an Inspiration To the Editor of The Amsterdam News Dear Sir: Allow me to congratulate you for your great editorial on Haiti, which appears in your issue of February ```markdown ``` SPECIAL ARTICLES HAITI declared for the Negro's constitutional rights, in principle. He has written several letters endorsing the work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. No president has been more genuine and sincere in expressing kindly interest and good-will towards his Negro fellow citizens; and yet he has done less to promote his claims to equal rights under the Constitution and the laws. We must, however, thank him for his good intention, although not easily translated into action. And now Mr. Hoover will take hold where Mr. Coolidge leaves off. He will enter upon a very bad inheritance so far as we are concerned. He finds the Negro all but eliminated from high place under the government; public sentiment in its lowest ebb. Congressman Tinkham is the only man in either house of Congress who genuinely believes in the enforcement of the Constitution where it is effective of the Negro's rights. Mr. Hoover is under no definite political debt which he is bound to pay under penalty of reprisal in the next nominating convention or at the polls when he comes up for renomination and self-succession. If every Negro who did vote in the last election had cast his vote for or against him, it would hardly have been possible of his majority. The political program has been so fixed that in the next national convention the Negro delegates, if there be any, will have no independent voice or vote. But despite all of this, let us hope, even if we do not expect, that the incoming administration will restore, out of sheer sense of high-minded patriotism, the Negro all of his lost political prestige. Let us, in all events, both hope and expect that he will project a social program which will support the political favors conferred or offset those withheld. able" tion, would be a terrible shock of discovery. Besides, marriage these days is a mutual proposition, and people, as was said, marry mostly for advantage, esteem and sometimes for real love, either thrown in, or by itself. The comparatively few mixed marriages that take place today in comparison with the great amount of sex associations that goes on between the two groups strengthens this statement. Legally and socially sanctioned amalgamation, the only kind that is elevating to the Negro and the nation, is inevitable. I believe. But before this takes place the way must be paved by proper education—advertising of the Negro's good qualities. If you will. This is why I, on my part, shall never cease to raise my voice against those books and plays written by white "friends" and enemies, telling Negroes—books and plays that present an unbalanced and distorted view of Negro life. Let those who will call my professional jealousy on my part, but I know that my motive is that of self-preservation. As long as I, because of my dark skin, am lumped in with others of dark skin of every sort, I cannot, therefore, view with indifference, no matter how I try, this continued emphasis on what is considered the life of the Jimeroes of Negro life. When the Jimeroes write and unwritten, begins to act with less rigidity, my views may change, but certainly not before. No matter how much emancipated Negroes and their white friends might praise works like "Show Boat," "Nigger Heaven" and "Home to Harlem," the effect on me to read that which I get from reading Dixon Sojourn so far for then I am being hit in the house of "my friends." It is muck-raking books that are best sellers. Still, muck-raking but helps to spread evil. To return where I began, before the Negro entered into his own, he wished to be as skillful and subtle advertising of his better qualities. He needs a tastier and more extensive show window. side of the paper only, and in this information does not 20. I wish it could be read by or road to every Negro in the world, as an inspiration for that universal racial cohesion without which we are lost. Sincerely yours. (Signed) N. B.

Diabetes is not an infectious disease, but the result of changes in the pancreas. This organ lies below the stomach and its function is twofold. One of its secretions is poured out into the gut for the digestion of fats, and the other secretion is carried away by the blood and influences the burning up and storage of sugar and starchy foods. There is rarely, however, any symptoms referable to the region of the pancreas in these cases. Some patients remain fat for a long time after the onset of the disease, but eventually lose weight as the condition grows worse. Other symptoms of diabetes are dry, itchy skin and a tendency to develop boils and car- Is the extract of certain portions of the pancreas, and when ined under the skin causes a diarrhea of the excess sugar in it, blood. It is not a cure for diabetes, but a means of prolonging The real trouble is the inability on the part of the body to digest properly and assimilate sugars and starchy foods. As a result of this, poisonous products are produced in the body due to faulty digestion of fat, which is in itself dependent on good sugar and starch digestion. The body needs sugar in the blood reaches a point where overflows in the urine, and if this condition be allowed to go on without treatment it results in loss of consciousness and death. In the treatment of diabetes it is obvious that diet is one of the most important considerations. The main object is to work out a diet which the patient can take care of, i.e.—there should be no sugar the urine, freedom from symptoms no loss of weight. When this cannot be accomplished by dietary measures, insulin should be used. Insulin was discovered by Banting and Best at the University of Toronto about eight years ago.

Published by Doubleday, Doran & Co., Inc., 244 Madison avenue. Price $2.50. HAVE delayed reviewing this volume for some months choosing first those books dealing directly, with the Negro. A mistake; for why linger over carelessly constructed, thin fiction, when such a volume as "John Brown's Body" is at hand, each page glowing with life? There is nothing thin about this story of the Civil War. Chanted in long metre, sung in tripping verse, recited in uneven prose, it hurries on, "a fine, long tale of war," with old John Brown's soul; moving through it like a throbbing base. The first book tells of Harper's Ferry and how John Brown had to die despite the Inamurable prayers, Inexorably rising, until the dark Vaulk of the midnight was so intense and packed The wild gees did not arrow through the storm Of terrible, ascendant women's prayers There are love stories running through the book. Jack Elylat from Connecticut, the hero if the book describes the white among the mountain whites to woo a girl there; and Wingate of Wingate Hall dancing with Sally Dupre. Men are held in prison; the spy is shot; Jefferson Davis sits in the executive mansion at Richmond; Lincoln roams through the White House. And if ever one grows a little ill, one of the course of the war, some sketch of a general or a soldier will instantly catch the attention again. There is not much about the Negro in the book. The two black figures that stand out are the faithful house servant and the runaway slave. Benet, toward the inst, says that he cannot sing the black-skinned epic having "too white a heart," but he believes that, some day a poet will sing with such truth and mollowness, "Deep mellow of the husky, golden voice," that it will be "a match for any song sung by old, populous nations of the past." The end of the war, as Benet sees it, is the end of the old system of inborn and the coming of the machine. Out of John Benet's Body grows the revolving steel, "out of his heart the chunting buildings rise." With him the toll of the slave is buried, the "engine-handed age" is born.

Marshall's article on conditions in Haiti under a Republican regime. Your black brothers are being exterminated, according to his report. Can you tell us now which of the political parties is in power? The blood of black humanity is calling. You can do your share by informing Congressmen and Senators of the horrors and tortures of the blacks in Haiti. Mr. Editor, all political parties where Negroes are concerned seem to be alike.

Is the extract of certain portions of the pancreas, and when injected under the skin causes a disappearance of the excess sugar in the blood. It is not a cure for diabetes, but a means of prolonging life in the sense that the individual eats a well-balanced diet, is free from symptoms and can carry on his daily work. Insulin is injected under the skin in unit doses just before meal; it cannot be taken by mouth since the stomach juices destroy its potency. The number of units necessary is determined by the amount of sugar in the urine the diet. There are a great many sufferers from the disease who have gone along for many years without use of insulin, but if it is too necessary, it should be used. The injections can be given in an office at the diabetic clinic with the result that the patients will soon learn to inject themselves. Insulin has saved lives, especially those in the co-stage. Before the use of insulin all patients who went into diabetic coma died. If you have symptoms which you suspect may be diabetic have your urine examined find out.
