THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News
Disapproval of Federal Judge William H. Atwell of Dallas, Texas, has caused the Brooklyn Bar Association to request Chief Justice Taft that Atwell never be allowed to sit in a Brooklyn court again.
The request was sent to Taft following a meeting of the bar members Thursday night. The action came as a result of the judge's color prejudice shown last summer when he made "improper and intolerant" remarks to F. R. Serri, white Brooklyn attorney.
The jurist told Serri that he would be smashed in court in the South for accusing Federal officers of false testimony. He aroused the irs of Negroes by telling Serri's client that she should not live in a colored neighborhood.

Supreme Court Rules In Lun School Case
WASHINGTON, March 18. — The Supreme Court of the United States in a decision without an opinion rendered Monday held that the controversy involved in the case of Joe Tin Lum, a Chinese citizen, had become moot. It reiterated the judgment of the Circuit Court of Cochoha County, Miss., and directed it to dismiss the petition of the native-born Chinese. At the time the suit was filed in 1922 Joe Tin Lum was 15 years of age. He became 21 years old some time in 1928 and now has no right to attend the public schools of Mississippi. It was upon this technicality that the Supreme Court of the United States avoided passing upon the question of the right of a Chinese citizen to attend a white school where equal facilities are not provided in the colored schools.

Pleading Delayed For White "Wife"
Seymour Irick's Legal Widow Given Estate by Court Order
Charged with menalaughter in the fatal shooting of her common-law husband, Seymour Irick, in their home at 3579 Fish avenue, Bronx, Mary Schineppa, 21-year-old white dancer, was to plead to the charge late yesterday in Bronx County Court before Judge Barrett.
The girl's name had been placed on the calendar for pleading Monday and was held over for the following day. The tragedy occurred in the apartment rented the pair by Johnny Hudgins, noted comedian now playing in "Blackbird," who purchased the house, a few months ago.
While the whole common-law wife must face charges in the death of Irick, the dead man's wife of his own race will acquire his estate. Letters of administration were granted Saturday in Bronx Surrogate Court to Mrs. Luella Irick, 203 West 140th street. As widow of the man from whom she never divorced, Mrs. Irick will dispose of the estate, consisting of 81,500 in personal property.
The white girl has been confined in jail since the shooting because she failed to raise $16,000 bail Miss Snapps lived with Irick for more than a year. She and her mate were employed at the Orpheum Dance Hall, Broadway and Forty-seventh street, the woman as a hostess and the man as musician.
Appeal Exonerates B'klyn Undertaker
Wiley G. Overton Found Not Guilty in Taylor Estate
Case
Wiley G. Overton, 317 Bridge street, Brooklyn, for forty years an undertaker, was found "not guilty of any wilful misconduct" in connection with the estate of the late Hanna E. Taylor, 283 Cumberland street, Brooklyn, when the Appellate Division of the Brooklyn Supremes Court reversed the order of Surrogate's Court of King's County on Friday.
Overton's appeal, through his attorney, Rufus L. Perry, 373 Fulton street, Brooklyn, reversed the motion of Surrogate's Court to punish him and found him innocent of contempt of a decree of October 23, 1923, whereby Overton, as administrator of the estate, was to sell it and deposit the proceeds of the sale at the Brooklyn Trust Company, Bedford branch, to the account of Lotie Green, heir and administratrix.
Samuel F. Edmead, 531 Classon avenue, Brooklyn lawyer and realtor, was entrusted by Overton with the sale of the property. He was accused of maneuvering the sale of the estate through two "dummies," depositing the proceeds of the sale in the form of checks made payable to a real estate concern of which he was president in the Brevoort Savings Bank and appropriating the money to his own uses.
Both Edmond and Overton were cited in contempt by the Burrogate's Court last July and a warrant of commitment was signed ordering them lodged in the Raymond street jail. Attorney Perry obtained a stay of execution for Overton, while Edmond put up $10,000 bond for his release. Edmond is said to have pleaded guilty and sacked for time in which to pay. The property was sold for $8,250.
A fine of $8,883.50 (with 6 per cent interest from December 29, 1926) was imposed upon the man. On Friday this fine, now placed at $8,872, was to be remitted, Attorney Perry said. The justices who concurred in the appeal were: P. J. Lazansky, J. J. Seegar, Rich, Young and Kapper.

PARALYTIC STROKE FOLLOWS SEVERAL YEARS OF ILLNESS
Famous Comedian's Wife's Body to Be Placed Beside His Remains in Woodlawn Cemetery Plot Following Services Today
Lottie Williams, widow of the late Bert Williams, world famous comedian who died seven years ago, will be buried beside her husband today at Woodlawn Cemetery in the Bert Williams plot. Prior to the interment, funeral services will be held over her remains at St. Philip's Episcopal Church, 134th street, near Seventh avenue, at noon today. The Reverends Hutchins C. Bishop and Shelton Hale Bishop, rector and assistant, respectively, will officiate.
Mrs. Williams died at her home, 2300 Seventh avenue, at 5:15 a.m. Sunday, after suffering a sudden stroke of paralysis. Relatives said Monday that the fundamental cause of her demise was lingering and intense grief over the death of her husband. Her health began to fall after he died, until it was necessary for her to be confined under a doctor's care.
Six months ago she was removed to the sanatorium of Dr. Wiley M. Wilson, 200 West, 185th street, where she remained until a month ago. Her condition seemed much improved when she returned home, and her death Sunday morning was sudden and unexpected.
Survivors
Mrs. Williams is survived by three nieces, among whom her estate will be evenly divided according to her will, it is reported. They are Misses Bunce Stress and Lottie Tyler of New York, and Mrs. Laura Tyler-Booth, who came from Chicago in November to be with her aunt during her illness. The contents of the will have not yet been made public.
Duncan Brothera, 2303 Seventh avenue, are in full charge of funeral
Jury Credits Earls' Divorce Testimony
Rules Favorably on Statements of Two Lodgers at Wife's Home
Testimony based upon evidence for divorce was ruled upon Friday in favor of John E. Earls, 331 St. Nicholas avenue, by a jury in Supreme Court, Trial Term, Part XII, before Mr. Justice George V. Mullan. Earls began divorce action last September against his wife, Alice May Earls, 2335 Seventh avenue, naming John Hughes, 58, an ice man, 2067 Seventh avenue, as correspondent.
According to Abraham Brekstone, white, 1840 Broadway. Earls' attorney, there only remains for Earls to go through certain necessary formalities denying that he gave his wife and Hughes any consent to improper conduct, in order to receive from the court a decree of absolute divorce.
The jury's verdict was based upon the testimony of Mrs. Cura Brown and Clyde Smith, lodgers in the home of Mrs. Earls, who testified that they frequently saw their landlady and Hughes in compromising positions.
Hughes, who is a married man living with his wife, denied the charges. Mrs. Earls was represented by the law firm of Wolmor and Schwartz, 1440 Broadway.
The Earls were married April 15, 1915. There were no children.

They are Misses Bunice Shreese and Lottie Tyler of New York, and Mrs Laura Tyler-Booth, who came from Chicago in November to be with her aunt during her illness. The contents of the will have not yet been made public.
Duncan Brothers, 2303 Seventh avenue, are in full charge of funeral arrangements. The remains of the deceased rested at her home from Sunday until last evening. She lay upon a daybed in peaceful repose, as though smiling, and was covered with a Japanese throw of gold crinkled cloth. Beneath her was a Japanese rug, and two gold candles stood like sentinels at the head and foot of the bier.
A $10,000 Funeral
It is estimated that the cost of the funeral will possibly reach $10,000. At the funeral parlor where the body was on view last night, Mrs. Williams rested in a heavy bronze and copper casket, somewhat similar to that in which the late Florence Mills was buried.
Mrs. Williams was married about thirty years ago, at which time she came here from Chicago. She played special roles in several of the shows in which her celebrated mate appeared, including "Bons of Ham" and "Abyssinia."
She lived quietly, and resided at the Seventh avenue address for several years. She was a member of the Chicago Club, formed of women born in that city.

The prisoners, upon investigation, proved to be the "black and white bandits," the police said, who held up and robbed the grocery store at 2140 Seventh avenue, near 125th street, took $60 from the cash register, clubbed Alec Avrutin, white, the proprietor, and escaped just a few hours previous to their arrest.
Tucker said the two men entered his place about 2:15 a.m. and ordered coffee and that when he went to the cash register for change they followed him suspiciously. "I then knew they intended to rob me, so I turned back from the cash register and they ordered sandwiches and told me to hurry." Tucker said. "Then I sat down in front of them and placed my finger under my apron as if I were covering them with a revolver. Just then Sergeant Skala passed by and looked in and I gave him a distress signal."
In a few moments Sergeant Skala returned with Patrolman Jeffries of the same station, and upon searching the men found a loaded revolver and a mask in Strong's possession, it is said. Following their arrest they are said to have admitted robbing the grocery man and of committing another robbery at Grand street and Ridge avenue.
At an arraignment in Harlem Court on the charge of robbing Avruntin, the prisoners appeared before Magistrate Well in court Saturday, walved examination on charge of robbery and were held without bail for the Grand street. Strong was held for Speed. Sessions under £5,000 bail additional charge of violating the Sullivan law. O'Donnell has a prison record and has violated his parole, the police said.
Red Caps Deny Police Charges
(Continued from Page 1.) service and Detective Carberry is said to have threatened Assistant Station Master Hutchinson, white, with arrest when he sought to keep the detectives from detaining men in the locker room, officials of the New York central are reported to have caused an investigation by Deputy Chief, Inspector Mulrooney.
Deputy, Nealy, Poster, Wittacker and Williams said Monday, that they will be defended by the legal department of the New York Central. They were released on bond late Thursday night. Several other red caps were searched and released, but the prisoners were not searched, they said. By coincidence, one of the captains of the red caps blew his whistle for the men to go to the upper level to prepare to meet the incoming Twentieth Century train from Chicago a few moments before the officers entered the locker rooms, thus leading the detectives to believe that the men were forewarned of their coming. Therefore, most of the men were out of the rooms.

knowing what it was all about, they said, until they were arrested. Nealy and Williams were in the locker rooms, they declared, when arrested and were taken in and seated at the "policy" table by the officers. Foster and Nealy said that the red caps that were apparently responsible for the money and the slips made their escape. No blows were struck, nor was there any resistance offered to the detectives, as reported in the daily press.

avenue.
On the same afternoon Scott, armed with a transcript of the charge, complained to Captain John Archiopoli, commander of the Sixteenth precinct, who investigated and found sufficient evidence against the patrolman to send the charges to the Inspector's office.
Coyle Grows Suspicious
According to Scott, his cab was parked 23 feet behind the building line on 141st street, north side, between Lenox and Fifth avenues, and that he was in a tire shop near the corner at 612 Lenox avenue when the fire engines drove up in response to the alarm. He rushed out of the shop and as he mounted his cab seat for the purpose of pulling away so as to leave the space clear for the engines. Coyle came up and questioned him concerning who pulled the false alarm. Scott said he denied any knowledge of it.
"The officer started away and then came back and said, 'I believe you turned in that alarm,'" Scott declared, and that Coyle then demanded that he turn over his license book and badge. Scott said he then sought to relieve himself of suspicion by saying that he was a lifelong friend of Patrolman Redmond of the same station, who had also appeared on the scene.
Knocked Almost Unconscious
After taking the book and badge Scott said Coyle walked away. He called after him, asking him for his badge number and for information of how he was to get his property back again. Coyle wheeled around and struck Scott a hard, vicious blow in the mouth, drawing blood, almost

knocking him down and causing him to remain prostrate in a semi-conscious condition for at least ten minutes, Scott swears.
Four other taxi drivers, together with Patrolman Redmond, are said to have witnessed the assault. They were; Meadia Colston, 352 West 118th street; Vervelle Payne, 141 West 139th street; Charles Philps, 21 West 136th street, and Allen Lynch, 75 West 141st street.
Scott was placed in his own cab and driven to the station house, where Coyie refused to allow the four witnesses to enter and threatened them with arrest, it is said.
Scott was then booked on a charge of disorderly conduct, Coyie alleging that he had refused to give information when questioned, became abusive and resisted arrest.
At Heights Court Attorney Cunningham cross-examined Coyle when he took the witness stand and drew from him what was in effect the admission that his only excuse for arresting Scott was because he was not on the seat of his taxicab when the fire engines drew up. Magistrate Renaud demanded of Coyle, "What right did you have to take his man's badge and book from him?" and ordered that they be returned. However, Coyle had already sent Scott's credentials to Fourth Deputy Police Commissioner Nelson Ruttenberg at the Hack Bureau, 156 Greenwich street, where Scott went Friday and received a temporary permit pending the formal trial of his case there tomorrow.
Court to Hear "Voodoo" Slaying Plea Tomorrow
Recovered from a scalp bullet wound inflicted by the arresting officer, Nathaniel Conway, 44, 168 East 110th street, will be arraigned for pleading before Judge Mulqueen tomorrow in General Sessions on charges of killing his common-law wife, Mary Johnson, 40, Feb. 24. Conway was indicted March 8, after being held for observation and treatment at Bellsvue Hospital. The accused man is charged with choking the woman to death in their apartment because he feared a supposed "voodoo" spell cast over him. Black cats, "goofer dust," lizard eyes and other mysterious concoctions of the black magic ritualists enter into the reasons for the slaying, according to police of the East 104th street station.

Youth's Slayer Sent To State Prison
Sylvia Williams, 17, Given Indeterminate Sentence at Bedford
Sylvia Williams, 17, 62 West 131st street, tearfully stood in General Sessions Friday before Judge Charles C. Nott and received an indeterminate sentence to the State prison for women at Bedford, following her plea of guilty to second degree manslaughter.
The little girl, who three and a half years ago came North to earn money to aid her parents in supporting their four younger children at Augusta, Ga., changed her plea March 8 in the fatal stabbing of Major James Clemens, 17, 202 West 130th street, December 25.

Mrs. Frazier stated that Mrs. Hicks was authorized as a trustee to withdraw from the Union Dime Savings Bank, Sixth avenue and Fortieth street, the sum of $302.56, which was to be turned over to the lodge treasurer and divided equally between eighteen members. The complaint charges that after withdrawing the money Mrs. Hicks failed to turn it in. Mrs. Hicks denied the charge, adding that the signatures of four persons, whom she declined to name, were necessary before the money could be withdrawn.

Seventh Avenue Apartments Are Plentiful at $75, $90, $100 Per Month
"House Hunter," However, Finds One "Railroad" Six Room Flat Priced at $60—One Rent Boosted From $45 to $65
By THELMA E. BERLACK
Time: Friday, March 15. Place: Apartments on Seventh avenue, 136th to 141st streets; one in 113d street.
Place: Apartments on Seventh in 13rd street. During the days when Sou droves, Seventh avenue was on tions. In the first place, these rooms, and so large family group
During the days when Southerners migrated here in such droves, Seventh avenue was one of the choice residential sections. In the first place, these avenue apartments had many rooms, and so large family groups could be accommodated.
Then, too, the "call of the avenue" could be answered with ease, for there were windows in which you could hang and see all the special street parades, large funerals, street lights, accidents, and the noisy hook and ladder companies rushing to answer fire alarms many times a day. Even the little Seventh avenue parkway, with its iron fence, had its contribution to offer. Extending from 110th to 155th streets, it gave a touch of natural beauty to the street, and at the same time offered a place where your dog could play a while each day without being hit by an automobile.
Mob Injures Two Men
MARION, Ark., March 18.—Willie James and T. B. Robertson were in a hospital here today in a critical condition following their capture from officers by a mob that forced the men to run a gauntlet of gun fire. The two were charged with attacking a white man and his wife.
A "For Rent" sign on Seventh avenue was a rarity for many years; last week, however, I found that if I had the cash I could get an apartment in both walk-up and elevator houses.
No. 2328—Six-room railroad flat, one flight up north, steam heat, gas and electricity, hot water, $60. The price sounded all right, for it was in keeping with the Emergency Rent Law figure, that of $10 a room, but when I "railroaded" from the parlor to the kitchen I changed my mind quickly.
Only one room could be made absolutely private, and it was so dark that I could barely tell the size of it. The kitchen had an almost new gas range in it, but this fact could not redeem the number of boards that were missing from the kitchen floor and the old-fashioned zinc kitchen sink.
No. 2332—Six rooms, third floor rear, $90. I liked everything this apartment had to offer except the price. Ninety dollars for rent is an amount beyond the reach of the average breadwinner in Harlem, with we'll say, a wife and two or three children.
Next I visited No. 2400, where I found five rooms, seventh floor back, elevator service, $75, and then No. 2424—Six rooms, top floor, modern conveniences, elevator service, $100.
Aside from No. 2328, Seventh avenue had nothing to offer at a reasonable rental good or bad.
I meant to limit this week's "apartment hunting" to Seventh avenue, but while visiting in West 143d street I discovered one of the worst cases, and I must tell about it. For five years I lived at No. 202, ground floor west, at $45 a month rental. The six rooms are small, dark and railroad. We paid $10 more than the preceding family, and when we left the incoming family had to pay $10 more than we. For three weeks this apartment has been vacant, the landlord asking $65 ($10 more than the last tenant paid) for the flat. The family in the apartment on the same floor pays $40 for an identical apartment. The only change in the apartment since the time I moved out of it is the installation of electric lights. Is the use of electric wiring worth $20 a month? Next week I shall try to rent an apartment in post-war houses.

Held for Murder When Victimi Dies
While the body of Thomas Drew, 44, 226 West 142d street, was being buried at Mount Olive Cemetery yesterday afternoon, Zemar Long, 43, 240 West 144th street, was being held without ball on a charge of murdering Drew by stabbing him in the abdomen with a knife during an altercation near Drew's home last Monday night a week ago. Drew died at Harlem Hospital on Friday. When arrested the day after the stabbing by Detectives Winterhalter and Robinson of the West 155th street station, Long was arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate Renaud and held in $5,000 ball for a further hearing Friday, at which time the charge of felonious assault was changed to homicide. Attorney Louis A. Lavelle, 200 West 135th street, represented Long. Drew was buried from the funeral parors of Fred M. Williams, 249 West 128th street.

Public Takes Pride in the Achievement of Dr.
Fifteen hundred people paid inspection visits Sunday and Monday to the Vincent Sanatorium, 2348 Seventh avenue, when the private institution founded by Dr. U. Conrad Vincent opened its doors for the first time to the public.
From the time of opening at 9 a.m. Sunday, crowds swelled the corridors and wards of the hospital, the newest and most modernly designed in Harlem. Patients began applying for admission before the institution's equipment had all been installed.
Nurses were hurrying about their tasks of caring for the first contingent of patients, and operations were in progress as the medical fraternity was welcomed Monday. The reception room, suggestive of a. Spanishtype home, was decked with flowers tendered the young physician and surgeon.
Scores of physicians, dentists and pharmacists were received Monday.

From Cellar to Garret
A Department for the Exchange of Ideas on Homemaking
THE secret of making a feathery, fluffy cake of velvety smoothness lies chiefly in the blending of the ingredients at the start, and the maintenance of this same creamy mixture all through the mixing and beating processes.
The richer the cake recipe is in its proportion of butter, the more cautiously must the mixture be worked to a smooth cream as one gradually works the sugar into the butter with a pliable spatula. The important Hints. 1. Having worked the butter until soft and creamy with a spatula or pliable knife, gradually work in the sugar a little at a time in the same manner. It is necessary to make a thorough blending of the ingredients from the start to insure the proper finer in the cake. The finer the grain of the sugar itself, the better the blend, and the finer the resulting cake.
2. Beat the eggs thoroughly to entangle a maximum amount of air, which will expand in the oven and lighten the cake.
3. Fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites so as not to lose this entangled air. Make each stroke count, thus stirring as little as possible.
4. Bake at the right temperature to produce a maximum expansion (375 degrees F). Too cool an oven makes a heavy cake too hot an oven makes a heavy cake because the cake cooks before the gases expand and lighten it.
5. A thorough and complete baking to prevent any collapse on cooling, for as the gas within the cake cools the cell walls of the cake would
Y. W. C. A. Notes
The past week in the Education Department of the West 137th street branch of the "Y" was filled with interesting events. The dynamics class, of which Miss Felicia Anderson is the instructor, went to see Ethel Barrymore in "The Kingdom of God." Dr. Sarah Brown gave two social hygiene lectures—one to the Day Business School and one to the Evening School. Louis Leslie, business manager of "The Gregg Writer," the official organ of Gregg Shorthand, gave a talk and demonstration to the Evening School.
A strawberry lace dinner gown, a navy blue silk ensemble and a sport coat were displayed in the lobby last week. These smartly styled and well-made costumes were the work of the girls in the Dressmaking School, of which Miss Jennie Jackson is the director. Several of the most faithful members of the branch are ill, among them: T. Willie West Tenth street; Mrs. T. A. Millege; 277 West End avenue; Miss Helen Pinn, Welfare Island Hospital.
His wee blings & letter from James P., who claims that there isn't a worthwhile girl anywhere. The girl of today is a scheming, shrewd, mercenary, hard-hearted and selfish person, according to him. Its money! money! money! When you wouldn't got it, you're out. When you haven't you're hopeless! Consciously or subconsciously, they all have money as theirs as James. Well, I've this to say. Mr. James P is a very smart man, indeed, if he knows women so well. Most men are unable to know one woman. Here's one who knows the whole bunch! Too many women are mercenary, it's true, but there are many more who are not. The question is, "Why don't the right parties meet each other?" Sometimes I wonder if the boys really look hard enough for a girl with good qualities. Or, are they influenced by shapely figures, curly hair, pretty skin, and free and easy morals?
The good girls say they are left at home alone. They want to know if there are any unselfish men left.
Don't give up hope. Look around carefully and if you can't find what you want, don't grab any old thing. There are forty-eight states in the United States to choose from, so why limit yourself to one little section?

Looking Your Best By FANNETTE
Easter Shopping
EASTER approacheth and the question of clothes ariseth.
Styles this year are quite simple. Small, tight-fitting hats are very much in vogue, special ones being made for long bobs. These hats are made so that they cover the back of the neck and the ears and so prevent your hair from showing to a great degree.
Dresses are more moderate in length, thank heavens. Bright colors will be worn to a great 'extent, harmony of contrast, of course, playing the great part.
There is this to remember about Eastern shopping: If you have a "wine" taste and a "beer" pocket-book, you'll be wise to postpone your purchasing until after Easter.
The things you want are apt to be too expensive for you and you will take a substitute which goes the way of all substitutes—in a closet, to be looked upon sadly because it simply isn't what you want.
Try to avoid fads. Get standard makes that will be becoming all summer and fall.
And, please don't do your shopping on March 30, 10 p. m. You won't be satisfied and you'll feel self-conscious as you'll have that "hurried get-up" about you. Take your time and try not to be influenced by what others wear. You should know your type and stick to it.

CREAM the butter well; gradually work in one-half of the sugar. Add the well-beaten eggs and remaining sugar. Beat mixture thoroughly. Mix and sift the dry ingredients.
Add the flavoring to the milk: Add the milk and dry ingredients alternately, working or beating the dough after each addition so as to keep a smooth, uniform mixture.
Give or knead in the last of the flour and tog out the dough on a lightly floured board to one-fourth inch thickness.
A soft cookie dough gives a delicate cookie. Do not knead in too much flour, but rather handle the dough as soft as possible. Chilling the dough before rolling will make handling easier.
Cut in any desired shape and bake on a cookie sheet in a hot oven for eight to ten minutes, or until browned. This recipe should make three and a half dozen cookies.

with performances of "Showboat,
The American part," and
presentation of the American artists before
their arrival on the S. S. Olympic March

of the artists Sunday afternoon affairs
began at Miss Alberta Hunter.

Besides, it practically ensures that success during the run of a show is highly compulsive in the artists in the Blackbirds since their good feeling and spirit reward each other. I hope the same effects among the other Blackbird company. It is jolly fine, indeed.
Here we are again in Dublin, Ireland, when all my friends could see this Irish city. There is certainly a lot of American financial interests here, as you go around here and there seems to be Americanized. The Irish money is very pretty to look at in the gardens of the murderer, among themselves. The Free State is carrying on in an undeniable way, and is quite content with Ireland.
The time of the year the weather is really as they say in England, *Shocking* is beautiful cold and in crossing the famous Irish Channel a few days ago, coming from London, the sea is empty rocked and carrieder in an airtight, tide manner, which I did not enjoy in the least.

Negro Experimental Theatre Will Also Provide Scholarships
At its third monthly business meeting held last month the 133rd street branch of the Public Library gro Experimental Theatre announced that the director, Miss Dorothy Peterson, is working out a scholarship arrangement with the American Academy of Dramatic Art. The plan, which has not been completed in detail, portrays summer, courses for classes consisting of no less than ten students.

The group will be between that group and the American Academy of Dramatic Art.
The report of the secretary, Mrs. Marion Beasely, shows that the membership of the groups is making surprising gains. Since the organization has grouped the membership has increased eleven to more than one hundred, including many well-known society women, among whom are Mrs. John E. Nall, Mrs Inez Richardson Wilson, Mrs. Inez Richardson, Mrs. Beasley Bearden, Mrs. Mani Bearden, and Mrs. Elmer Carter, Dr. Gertrude Curtis and Mrs. Lottie Cooper.

I've heard recently is that a Negro, or they say in England, "a Blockie," will run on the Socialist ticket in Dublin, Ireland, for a seat in the Irish Dail.

Layton and Johnstone, England's biggest drawing card on the variety halls over here, are breaking all records in the north of England with their road show. This week they are at the Hippodrome, Leeds.
The three Eddies are expected back in England shortly to fill their variety hall, locked before going to the contest. The team are set up at the Big Scale in Berlin and are booked for an early closing there next year.
Contrary to her recent statement, popular Miss Alberta Hunter will open at an exclusive cafe in Paris after closing with the London "Showboat." She was booked direct by Monseur Paul Santo, director general of a number of very smart Paris cafes.
The Musical Spilers have caught on wonderfully well in England, where they are playing the G. T. C. tour. Last week at the Holborn Empire they were outstanding hit on a very fine bill which included the Yale Band from America. Most of the Spilers' act was the biggest success on the bill, regardless of the popular Ace Layman's Band. The Spilers are hard workers, and since opening in England they have improved greatly, and to such an extent they should do exceptionally well here on the continent.

PHILA. TEAM MAKING GOOD
PHILA. TEAM MAKING GOOD
PHILADELPHLA, Pa., March 16. Although the season is almost over, it is still a trifle too early to make a definite prediction on the subject, but there is a feeling in Philadelphia that the Commandeurs will dominate Quaker City basketball circles before the season is done with. And next season will find them among the top notchers of the land.
mandeurs. In fact, with the possible exception of the Philadelphia Giants basketball team in New England, there has never been Quaker City team in demand as the Commandeurs has turned out to be. The management of the Coms has received requests for games from almost every first-class team in the course of course, it has been impossible for the team to they all these teams this season. But next year will be different.
Meet Newark Fire.
For the first time this season, Friday night at the Broadway, the Commandeurs will tackle one of the leading teams of the East as the favorite, despite the fact that this team has already defeated the Commandeurs, and that team is the Newark Staten Island, last year's New Jersey State champions. The progress of the Coms has been watched. And, on
of the projecting room at the Renaissance Theatre, where all talking pictures have just been instituted.
Coming to these shores from the little island of Nevis, B. W. L. Warner started his studies of motion picture picture making while a red cap at the Grand Central Station through the kindness of Chief William T. Lowlow him time off, he attended the operating school, where he secured his license. Warner then obtained a job in a 125th street theatre as a porter, but he soon found his way to the theatre where he remained more than a year.
From the 125th street place he came to the Renaissance Theatre, where Manager Cloe Chariv, him charge of the projecting room and there he has been ever since. Patrons would hardly believe that the manager and the operator were just pals in the business of good projecting and giving in all talks. Warner's many friends in the union heaped wishes for success upon their fellow worker.
their improvement of their dazzling passing attack and on their famous potential defensive strength, they will most likely even up matters with the Councils Friday. Give the Coms that they get going and they are sure to establish a record before the season is over. The Coms have one of the strongest defenses in the country. This was glaringly apparent in the Lincoln game last week, when the Lions were forced to resort to long shots and foul tones to win. No team has scored over 25 points against the Cowboys and although the Coms have lost seven games, five of these contests were dropped by three-point margins and one by a lone tally.
Watching from the side line, one can't help marvel at the fact that the Coms have taken very few shots for the basket. In fact, almost every point made by the Coms this basket has been from beneath the basket, after a series of passes which invariably stanch the court. And there are several plays on the squad who are experts at long distance shooting. Manager Chick Edwards, who is laying the foundation for a team that is destined to be rated side by side with the Collegeans next season, early in the season banned all shots which were taken beyond the foul line. And the fact that the Coms have developed into strong handlers and strong defensive players has made him optimistic about next season. On April 18 the Coms close.
On April 19 the Coms closes the
club. On May 1 the Coms closes the
Club of Washington at Philadelphia.
Y. M. D. Juniors Lose
The Carlton Young Men's Junior team suffered defeat on their home court on Saturday, March 14, at the hands of the Pioneer Athletic Club team. Final score was 25-18. The visiting team proved they were in a class with the fast moving Trojan team, which has a slight margin on them in scoring ability.
Carlton started out nicely, but could not hold up under the fast pace set by the Pioneers. Their de-

Bring on the Old Written Agreement for St. Jude
Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty,
Sporting Department,
New York Amsterdam News,
2293 Seventh Ave.,
New York City.
Dear Editor:
In the New York Amsterdam News,
issue of Feb. 11, there appeared an
article of "Baints" dropped a game to the Lea Cheverson
Harlem by a forrest which was to be
played on Feb. 13. On that date the
Saints played the Grace M. E. Church
SEVEN
live on the latter's court and defeated
them by a score of 60 to 36.
The Saints did not have a written agreement with the Les Chevaliers to play them on their court Feb. 18. Therefore not having any concrete written agreement it is impossible for the Saints to forfeit game by failure to put in an appearance. However, the management of the Les Chevaliers must always demand a written agreement before booking games with other organizations. Many times we have waited for teams to put in their appearance but with no avail. We adopted the idea of having all our games that is in the act which we desire to play, recorded in a written agreement suitable to both clubs. It is dangerous to rely on one's mind to play a game three or four weeks from a specific data. Part of the article is true. We have played them on a previous occasion.
I am sure if the Les Chevaliers had given little thought to the matter the misunderstanding would not have occurred.
Very truly yours,
GEO. A. PRINCE, Coach,
St. Jude's "Saints."

Titans Win New Jersey Amateur Championship at Bordentown
BORDENTOWN, N. J. March 15.
—Titan A. C. of Orange came down to Bordentown tonight in full force and went home with a championship belt, in token of winning the annual Bordentown Basketball Tournament. In an earlier game the Tiger won the jersey, and the team named the junior, or 140-pound team.
Meeting the Atlantic City "Y Big Five in the Bordentown finals. Titan Bears earned an easy victory, winning 4-1 the game with a hopelessly handicapped, as three of their regulars, their three big guns, failed to arrive. Chick Brown, erkks, failed to hide and arrived just as the game ended. Allen, Laman and Montford, with Aldrich and McArthur, filled in valiantly in their places, half gave Titans a tremendous battle.
The class of their Orange opponents finally told, however, and the Bears flashed unbeatable left, left, left, the seaside boys standing in their tracks. Miles, star running guard, and Melvin at center each gathered six foot goals, and the game was shown for the high score of the evening. While the non-appearance of the Atlantic City regulars was a severe disappointment, the team must have must not be taken from the Orangeites, for Miles and Melvin would have been a tough handful for the crafty player-manager of the Bears showing as fine a game as he has ever exhibited.
The big game came as an anticlimax, with the face of battle between Montclair "Y" Juniors and the Atlantic City Tigers for the lightweight title. The Tigers started off at tremendous pace, but that left Montclair dizzy and ran the score up to 19 to 9 at the end of the first half. Freeman, Gardner and McGee, the team's men, tying their defense up into knots to score on easy chances.
The second half, however, found the Montclair defense stiffened, and the Tigers made the game determined rally by the up-Seasters brought the count up to 21 to 18 at the close of the third quarter. From then on the game was nixed; the Tigers were among the crowd when Montclair tied the count at 21-21, but a beautiful overhead shot by Freeman put the seasideers ahead in. and the Tigers whistle leading by a single point, 24 to 25.
A banquet tendered the competing players and their managers immediately after the game found two hundred and five bested the school's athletic team by a total of 10 trophies was made. L. B. Granger, extension worker of the school and promotor of the tournament, expressed the appreciation of the school's athletic team for the public and the public from the clubs of the State. He announced that the disagreements and arguments that had marred the progress of the tournament were resolved by the renewal of a strong public interest in the sport, and that broad sportsmanship and intelligent effort would certainly be able to remove in another year most of the causes of the ban.

Rochester Centrals in Return Game With Champs Sunday Night
By FRANCIS.
Boulogas Douglas's world colored champion Renaissance team further proved their right to team captain, winning last Sunday night when they defeated the Philadelphia (Colored) Giants by the score of 35 to 24, before a large crowd that packed the Renaissance Casino to the brink. The Renaissance completely outclassed their rivals in every department of the game, save in roughness and some colorful clowning by Bethards, guard of the Philly Giants, watching this the Giants presented a mighty good team, and showed that they are a hard team to beat at any time, and particularly on the unnecessary roughness may be winked at by a tolerant home referee.
There was a tenseness shown by both teams as the struggle began, and particularly on the unnecessary roughness may be winked at by a tolerant home referee.

The Rens scored the first point on a foul, which was immediately on the ball, and Chambers of the same team got another one-timer, and then Salch put the ball back to the lead. This lead was short-lived, however, for the Philly quintet staged a short offensive that gave them four more points, which was by Chambers for the lead of 6 to 3.
In the preliminary game the Metro-Diamonds defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 48-26 thus qualifying to meet the Scholars next Sunday night for the championship of the Eastern Colored Basketball League and the Randolph trophy, presented by Manager Douglas of the Renaissance Flyer.

WHO'S WHO AT FLUSHING HIGH SCHOOL
Gerald Norman.
The void left with the departure of Jule Wishik, tennis luminary at the Flushing High School, has been filled by the new High School, who will captain this season's team.
Last season Norman played with the team and because of his scintillating performance was rewarded by scholastic crilies with an all-scholastic team. The team, which has outstanding colored athletes in Queens athletic competition, is held in high regard by his fellow students at the local institution.
The tennis player he proved his ability last season while competing in the championships at Kissimmee Park, when he won the doubles championship with Jule Wishik. This pair went on to win the doubles title as again pura penetrates mosquito netting. Any of the performers in the Kissimmee play will attest to that statement.
He entered the Broadway institution in high school that always maintained a high scholastic average. With the exception of playing with the "Never-Sweater," a soccer team, he has conduced his activity to tennis. He has won two national participation in this phase of sports.
He has been a member of the school orchestra and has been recently named a member of the full-Y league, composed of high school students. Norman plans to matriculate at College of Applied graduation from the Flushing school.

Sensational Cuban Fighter Meeting Graham at McMahon's Coliseum
The New York Coliseum, the world's largest indoor boxing arena, with a seating capacity of 32,000, will hold its first show on Friday, April 12, with a fifteen-row contest between Bushy Graham of Utica and Will Goldschmidt for the tameweight championship of the world. Jess McMahon has the signed contracts of the two principals and will file them with the Boxing Commission at its meeting Tuesday, April 17th street and Devoe avenue. The building proper was the giant exposition hall of the Sesqui-Centennial in Philadelphia. It was moved to this city in sections. The circus will occupy the arena ten days beginning next Thursday.
McMahon delayed announcing the date and boxers for his first show until he had attended to every detail on the night with Graham's contract safely tucked away in his pocket and all that remains for him to do now is to see that the sawdust is cleared off the floor following the circus and a set of rings used by the animals, clowns and attendants of the merry makers. Under the terms of the contract, neither Graham nor Chocolate will be permitted to engage in such activities obligated. Graham requested one tuneup battle, while Chocolate has two bouts scheduled before his match against the titleholder. The flashy Negro movie star now has and meets Johnny Vacca in Boston on Friday night. Efforts to cancel these contests proved futile. Graham will receive $2,100, and Chocolate will receive $1,400, per the State and Federal taxes. Popular prices of $1 to $5.49, inclusive, will prevail.
EDWARDS SETS WORLD'S RECORD
British Boy Ran Third at Madison Square Garden, but Sets Mark
Nearly 500 athletes representing schools and clubs from all parts of the United States met in Madison Square Garden last Saturday night for the annual Knights of Columbus game. Plitted against the Americans were a number of leading runners from abroad, including Edwin Wide, Swedish star; Paige Nurse, the Purje and Jake Wade of Finland. Three featured events attracted nearly 9,000 persons to this arena. These events, the Casey 600, the mile of the century, the purple mile were expected to result in some of the keenest competition of the season. Johnny Gibson, wearing the colors of the Bloomfield team, surprised the surprise of the evening by winning the first of the featured races, the Casey 600. He covered the distance in 1:12.2 to defeat a Boston 600. A who was second, Phil Edwards, who was expected to win the event, finished third. Edwards took an early lead but tired from the stress of making pace during the final issue game.
The great race Edwards ran did not go unrewarded, however. He set a new world's record for 500 meters. He had asked to be timed at 500 meters, 600 yards and 660 meters. He did not approach the last two records, but crossed the 500-meter mark in 1:05 to better the old mark in 1:10. Mohawk A. C., won the first two half-mile handicap events in 2:00:35. Marvin Dember of N. Y. U., was second and Greenwood Track Club, was third. Paul J. Riley, of Fordham University, won the second in 2:00:45. John L.

Morgan College Defeats Lincoln for Second Time
Morgan College defeated Lincoln University for the second time this week. The game was exceptionally fast throughout. Both teams started with a rush and Morgan ran the ball time out. After this the Bears had things their own way until half time. The score at the end was to 11, with Morgan on the long end.
At the beginning of the second half Coach Taylor sent Hackett, Tucker in forward and Ezekiel in back. This team worked well, but lacked the finish of the first string aggregation. Lincoln suddenly came to life and Avery, Sydnor and Ezekiel scored. Lincoln's score up to within three points of Morgan's at 33-30. However, "Cutie" Brown and the incomparable Lanky Jones sank double deckers. The defense was strong. Lincoln's dying breath — goals by Sydnor and Hawkins — failed to turn the trick and the final whistle blew. Morgan still ahead after a real battle.

Hilldale Drops Veteran Outfielder, Taking on Holloway
PHILADELPHIA, March 18—Manager George Mayo, of the Hildale Club of the American Negro League, was named captain of Otto Briggs, veteran outfielder of Clan Darble and one of the oldest players in point of service on the field. He was the outfielder when the outfit almost continuously since 1917. The dropping of Briggs was foregone when President Bolden obtained outfielder Crush Holloway from the Baltimore Black Sox. Otto was field leader for the Browns and was by Oscar Charleston at the end of the regular playing schedule.
Howard Takes Third Game From Lincoln University
WASHINGTON, D. C., March 16—The Howard basketball team, with Capt. Coates, Simpson and Williams, three regular players, won the fight over the fighting Lincoln Lions with a score of 38 to 30. Hall, star of the Freshman team, superseded for Wood, proved a sensation in his floor work and his shooting, particularly in the first half in which he garnered three field goals and an entire free throw in the second half. The victory was sweet revenge to the Bison and easily proved their superiority over the Rams in New York before 4,000 fans. Coach Burr's strategy in holding out his regulars, who had participated in a strenuous fraternity game, was to win with the spirit manifested by the rattle, were deciding factors in winning the game.

MANY STARS IN NEW LEAGUE
Organization to Present Best of Talent When Season Opens
PHILADELPHIA. 18—When the American Negro League opens its initial season on April 1, the fans who will follow the destinies of this infant baseball loop will see organized baseball's Class AA championship. This is the opinion of many observers who are familiar with all degrees of the baseball leagues and who are familiar with the values of athletes of the diamond. The quality of the new circuit is shown in one instance, for example, Ramon Herrera, who came to Alajama to play Cuban Stars from Boston American Stadium this season play in the Pacific Coast League and Herrera was far from being the best second baseman among the independent teams of last season, who now comprise the new league.
There has been quite a shifting of players through trades and each team has been stronger than in 1928. The trading of teams does not necessarily mean that his days are numbered, but that he has outlived his usefulness with a parachute club and will do better elsewhere. The league limit is 14 players and all teams must be cut to that number. He has quite a few men will be among the missing and it is safe to say that familiar faces still on the reserve lists have new fields before the summer soisele. The Homestead Grays, about to face the barrier in their first league race have acquired Jake Stevens, the former defensive tackle of the dale Club. The Possey-Walker interests made a ten-strike in landing this pair because "Steve" is generally the fielder in the game and last year is outhone the famous Dick Lund and Lundy approaches in skill to John Henry Lloyd of the Minnesota team, who is not valuable in the Clan Dabar payroll last year.
In return for these two Ed Bolden acquired George Britt and Martin Wells. Britt is one of the best catchers in the game and can take a regular turn on the pitching mount where he is equally good. But Hillary Bolden is the best baseman. For the first time in his history the Clan will have a Cubs player on its roster and Didi Rhigo is the game rolloway, secured from Baldimore, will displace some outfielder and Jackson replaces Warfield in second. Baldimore has a new manager, Frank Warfield, and a new shoaler, Dick Lundy. Pitcher Ryan was retained in the trade with Hildale is one of the best hurter here on the field. Ben Taylor, who will manage the Bacharach Giants. The Lincoln Giants have several seals and Pomper has strengthened by Cubans. John Henry Lloyd of the former team hopes that Bill Keeley will show so much ability to make good the threat of retiring from active duty in the infield.
Chevaliers Win Again
Les Chevaliers added another win to their string of victories when their completely outclassed the Brooklyn Stompers on the Chevalier's Harlem on Tuesday evening, March 12.
Both teams played a fast, offensive game, but the Chevaliers were by the better cam and outclassed the Stompers, with the Chevaliers, Harris, rounded with high score for a total of 11 points, but was followed closely by Lamonier, who told them of teams LES CHEVALIERS.

Announcing Mr. de Brown
WE announce with bated breath
this week the acquisition of Mr.
J. Tincture de Brown as our new
philosopher and investigator of
things Harlemesque. Tink, as we
affectionately call him, is thoroughly
conversant with uptown streets, having
stood as a strong advocate for
their cleanliness in his daily work.
Street Cleaner de Brown's position,
however, has not been entirely mercenary.
He informs us that civic
pride and the quality of Harlem's
cigar stumps have made his task
lighter and his refuse cart easier to
trundle.
Asked if he thought Harlemites are
grasping their opportunities, he
sagely remarked: "Yes, when they
have artistically rouged cheeks and
dumped knees."
Burdened With Cash
A PARK ROW auctioneer, seeking to exchange a diamond ring for a substantial sum in cash, asked for a bid on the trinket. "Five cents," piped a wisecracker. "Did you bring it all with you?" the auctioneer asked, hardly halting his sales talk.
Club Room to Open
WITH the coming of spring and the balmier breezes expected in June, the outdoor collegiate clubroom on the northeast corner of Seventh avenue and 135th street will soon open.

The Ultra Modern
Composer-Pianist
Those who heard Henry Cowell's revoluntionary art at the International House, March 13, with its tone clusters—as many as twelve to nearly fifty-six notes simultaneously struck—left the concert with the impression that if Mr. Cowell's art were being faked, there would be no proof that the fake would be better than the original.
Mr. Cowell is not new to musical audiences. He has appeared at Carnegie Hall, and has contributed articles to musical journals on "The Evolutions of Ultra Modern. Music." Hearing Mr. Colwell, one is convinced that no art can stand still, since new phases of art and thought are constantly appearing. The question is whether Mr. Cowell's art belongs to the highest form of art—a form which attains a degree of permanency and does not fade away into oblivion with the advent of any new fashion.
Benefit Recital
A noteworthy concert was given at Mother Zion Church, Thursday, for the benefit of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. Under the direction of Lucien H. White, music reviewer of the New York Age, such artists appeared as Dr. Melville Charlton, organist; Miss Gertrude Martin, violinist; Miss Doris Trotman, soprano; Carl Diton, baritone; and Miss Sonoma Talley, who assisted Miss Martin at the planofore. Dr. Charlton's superlative reading combined with his well-known virtuosity entitled him still to remain in the catalogue as an organist of the first rank. Miss Martin's tone is remarkably true, pure and firm, and her execution at all times clear and perfect. In short, she seems to have perfect command of the instrument. Miss Talley shares honors by virtue of her sollend accompaniment.
Miss Doris Trotman is a young and promising artist, graceful in stage presence, modest in manner and imbued with true affection and spirit for the art. Miss Trotman has a charming voice and sang with intelligent expression a group of songs in-

Carl Diton appeared in song selections of Wagner and Schumann. Mr. Diton's activities in the realm of music are many. We are informed that he is a pianist and organist. Now that he has made his debut as a singer, it is only left for him to perfect himself in the field in which he excels.
On Sunday afternoon at the Grace Congregational Church, James Bell, tenor, essayed an ambitious program devoted to composers of the early school—Scarlattl, Purcell, Handel, Beethoven, Schubert and Schumann—along with those of the more modern school. Mr. Bell was ably assisted by Miss Lydia Mason, a pianist of the front ranks. He was accompanied by his teacher, Harry A. Williams.
Monarch Band to Play Palm Sunday
The Monarch Band will play an interesting program of music in honor of the Most Ancient and Honorable Fraternity of Free and Accepted Masons, Prince Hall, of the State of New York, on Palm Sunday afternoon, March 24, at 3 o'clock in the auditorium of the Girls' Junior High School at St. Nicholas avenue and 135th street. B. Johnson, baritone, will be the soloist. Daniel T. Reagle, M. W. grand master, will speak.
Choral Concert
The Salem M. E. Church Choir offered a program of the Messe Solennelle (St. Cecilia) by Charles Gounod, with organ accompaniment by Clough-Leighter, last Sunday at the Salem M. E. Church. The choristers were under Rudolph Grant's direction and the soloists of the afternoon were: Mrs. Walker, Mrs. Howard, Miss Ferguson and Miss Canegata, soprans; Mr. Lovinggood, tenor soloist of St. Mark's Church; James Bishop, Charles Hammond, and Hamlet Robinson, basses.
Mr. Lovinggood as tenor soloist, sang expressively, although the quality of his tone was not always at its best. Mrs. Howard's work was strikingly impressive, as her voice had ample resonance and warmth and richness, in spite of her recent illness.
At the Community Church House Thirty-fourth street and Park avenue, Merrill Dames, tenor, and Neil O'Jon, pianist, are appearing under

The musical club of thirty voices representing Lincoln University, of which the Rev. Dr. William Hallowell, president, will render a program of musicals, musicals, plantation and folk songs at the Silicon Prestyteryan Church, 404 Lafayette avenue, on Tuesday evening, the proceeds of the concert will be donated to the $500,000 endowment fund, for which the school is now campaigning. The early history of the institution reads like a romance. The minister of Oxford, Pa., was defining a young white man for missionary work in Africa when the vision came to him of a school for the children of the poor who should carry the light of the race to the needy of their own race.
In 1868 the Presbyterian General Assembly approved of the plan to establish a school for the Christian training of colored youth and the number of students granted a charter to Luther University, making it the pioneer institution for the higher education of the Negro.

THE WORLD'S FIRST WOMEN'S UNION
On Thursday morning, March 7, there passed away at her residence, 1331 Seventh avenue, one who meant much in the business and social life of Harlem in the person of Mrs. Martha E. Howell, president of the H. Adolph Howell Undertaking Establishment.
Mrs. Howell was born in St. Joseph, Bermuda. Coming to the United States forty years ago, she soon married H. Adolph Howell, the founder of the business, who preceded her to the great beyond hardly two years ago. Side by side they began in business at 133d street, removing later to more spacious quarters at 107 West 103th street, where the dream of their lives took place and resulted in the building of the spacious and beautiful chapel and embalming rooms at Seventh avenue and 137th street some four years ago.
Her body laid in state in the parlor of her residence for two days, where thousands passed reviewing in a quiet testimony to the love and respect she had in the hearts of those who knew her.
Funeral services were held at St. David's Church, of which Mrs. Howell was a devoted member, on Sunday, March 10, at 9:30 a.m. The services were conducted by the Vicar, Rev. A. G. Best, assisted by Fathers Durant and Myers of the Chapel of the St. Ambrose.
Interment was in Woodlawn Cemetery, the cortege preceded by two coaches of flowers and the active and honorary pallbearers and followed by thirty-six other coaches with the family and friends, where all said their last farewell to her.
She is survived by three brothers, five sisters, nephews and nieces and a large number of relatives and friends.
Funeral arrangements were in charge of C. Leon Estwick, a pupil of her late husband.

Back Quit Hurting
"IN the spring (about 1924),
I was suffering with extreme weakness," says Mrs.
Martha M. Reed, 2415 Palmyra St, New Orleans, La., whose picture is printed above.
"This seemed to affect my back. I could not tell how much I suffered, but was tired and nervous all the time. I complained a good deal, for I just couldn't help it.
"My husband advised me to try Cardul, which I did.
I took two bottles at this time, and soon I was well and strong. I seemed to be much better after taking it and my back quit hurting.
"Once since, when I felt I needed a tonic, I took two bottles of Cardul. Again I felt much stronger. I am in splendid health now, and I recommend Cardul to my friends."

Watch Tongue For Signs of Illness
Your tongue is nothing more than the upper end of your stomach and intestines. It is the first thing your doctor looks at. It tells at a glance the condition of your digestive system—and physicians say that 90 per cent of all sicknesses start with stomach and bowel trouble.
A white or yellowish coating on your tongue is a danger signal of those digestive disorders. It tells you why the least amount of artifact comes out; why you have pains in the bowels, gas, sour stomach dizzy spells.

A WORLD of forbidding distances, rimmed by the unknown. Night using its darkness to reveal countless worlds in the far spaces of the sky. Hand uplifted, the Soothsayer summons the universe to speak its secrets. Another prophet, the Poet. Seer by inspiration rather than incantation, he sings the World That Is To Be—human hopes ripening to realization, mankind mounting on mysteries revealed to genius and energy.
Boast and dream, both have come true. At the command of Man the Conqueror, distance fades. His voice spans community, county and continent—even an ocean—easily, instantly. At his home, in his office or shop, a world waits on his word.
Serving the voices of millions day and night, this Company sees romance as well as duty in its task. Romance in making personal communication independent of distance. Duty in providing adequate, ever-improving facilities for this vital service, and anticipating requirements which daily grow more enormous.

MANY NEW YORK LAWYERS are in the race for the new Federal Judgeships created by the last Congress. About forty names have been mentioned for the honor in the Southern and Eastern districts of New York. The nominations are expected to be sent in at the extra session of Congress. IT IS TO BE HOPED that Negro lawyers will not be overlooked. The Amsterdam News would suggest the names of Alderman John C. Hawkins and Attorney Aiken Pope, both men whose character and ability are generally known and recognized. Either of them could fill a Federal Judgeship worthily. It might also be stated that they are Repubicans.
"Chief" Lee
"Chief" Lee
F" EDWARD E. LEE was for many marks of Harlem. He was in New York in, as we know it, was even thought
"CHIEF" EDWARD E. LEE was for many years one of the landmarks of Harlem. He was in New York long before Harlem, as we know it, was even thought of. Oldtimers will miss the sight of him trudging along the avenue with his big, stooped figure and his inseparable cane. Full of vigor and personality, he was always a character, and many stories grew up around him. They called him ignorant, yet he often succeeded where more enlightened men failed.
THIS FACT was illustrated by an incident of his later days, when, as a deputy sheriff, he was sent to serve a summons on David Belasco, the great theatrical producer. "Chief" trudged into Belasco's office and was stopped by a young secretary who asked him his business. "I want to see Dave," said "Chief." The secretary did some fast thinking, surmising that anyone who dared call Mr. Belasco "Dave" must be an old and privileged friend. With all courtesy he admitted the "Chief," who promptly served Belasco with the summons. Later, when friends praised his ingenuity, the "Chief" admitted that he had said "Dave" only because he did not know how to pronounce Belasco.
WHEN RICHARD CROKER was the chief of Tammany Hall "Chief" Lee organized the United Colored Democracy, which for many years was an active organization. It was his tragedy that he lived to see the death of it. He will be remembered as the old type of Negro political leader, unlearned but filled with personal magnetism, courage and crude power. Many a man in New York owes his advancement to Edward E. Lee.
Bird in the Hand
Bird in the Hand
COLONEL HORACE A. MANN has resigned. He was the self-styled Southern manager for the Republican party during the campaign of 1928 and one of the leading "lily whites." He prided himself on being a man of mystery whom no one understood, and finally became so mysterious that he did not understand himself. The National Republican Committee turned against him and President Hoover kept his hands off. No one seems to know just how Colonel Mann got "in bad" with the committee. His resignation is a surprise to many because the Republican party was supposed to approve of his determined endeavor to make the party "lily white" in the South.
IT IS SURMISED that his retirement was accelerated if not caused by the opposition of Robert R. Church of Memphis, Negro leader, who declared that he would devote his life to squelching Mann and his attempt to establish the "lily whites." Mr. Church called at the White House just before Mann's resignation was announced.
The surmise may be correct. It may be that the sutate heads of the Republican party see the danger of overreaching themselves in adopting the "lily white" policy. Robert R. Church controls the Negro vote in eight Middle Western States whose combined vote is strong enough to turn a Presidential election. The complete espousal of the "lily white" policy by the Republican party might easily alienate this vote without gaining enough Southern white votes to offset its loss. The Republicans already have this vote; the winning of the Southern vote is problematical. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Amalgamation Academic
Amalgamation Academic
THE NEGRO PRESS, after forgetting the subject for thirty years, is again discussing racial amalgamation. The late Bishop Turner used to say: "There are only three solutions of the race problem — extermination, deportation, or amalgamation. Well, they are not exterminating us and they won't deport us." DR. KELLY MILLER, while admitting the possibility of amalgamation, believes it is as remote as the burning out of the sun. He points to the will of the white race to keep itself pure, to the anti-miscegation laws in many states, and to the decrease of interracial illegitimacy. J. A. Rogers, novelist and travel-writer, says that amalgamation is not only inevitable but has existed ever since the beginning of history. He says that Europe is full of ancient Negro blood, quoting authorities to show that the ancient Negro left traces of himself not only in Rome but in Ireland and the western part of England. AS A RACIAL PROGRAM amalgamation is not worth talking about. It cannot possibly occur in this century or in the next. Confronted with the problems of today, we cannot base our actions upon what our descendants will be our

eral centuries hence. For us it is no more than an academic question.
IN THAT SENSE, of course, it is interesting. It is a natural law that two races, however dissimilar, will blend if they continue to live side by side. Negroes have been in this country only 310 years, yet at least five-sixths of them have some white blood in their veins. In six centuries a full-blooded Negro may be a rarity in America.
NATURAL LAWS have their own ways; they are totally oblivious of man-made law. Their slow, sure, cosmic operation will not be hurried by Negroes who desire miscegenation or thwarted by whites who abhor it. What avails legislation when the legislators themselves obey the very law they are trying to defeat? What avails anything against the life-force? As Killing says:
"East Is East and West Is West, and never the twain shall meet. But there is nothing
there is neither East nor West, border nor breed nor birth When two are to face, though they come from the ends of the earth."
IF THAT IS TRUE of men and men, it is truer of men and women. When a destined man and woman meet, what do they care about caste and theories and legislation, or for anything but the spark that leans between them?
PRESIDENT HOOVER did not choose to mention the Negro in his inaugural address. This omission may have been purposed or thoughtless. Since he did not make specific reference to any other element of our complex population, why of the Negro? The race press has been milling over the omission with an uncertain attitude, as to whether to applaud or disapprove.
From a theoretical point of view, the Negro is part and parcel of the American people and is a full-fledged participant in the common weal; therefore, any special reference would be odious. From a practical standpoint, the Negro, though a part of it, is at the same age as many from the body. He is identified with the body politic in all of the duties and sponsibilities of citizenship, but not so in the distribution of rewards, privileges and prerogatives. When candidate Hoover declared that all Americans should be given squal opportunity, regardless of creed or color, he was speaking in terms of beautiful idealism. His courage for making this reference to race was universally commendable. Instead, it constituted the chief interest which the spellbinders could find for urging the race to support his candidacy during the campaign.
Usually, when the Negro is not mentioned, he is not meant. I do not recall that Woodrow Wilson once mentioned the Negro in all of his state papers. When he wrote about the "New Freedom" or
"CRIME IN HARLEM"
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
First let me congratulate you on the splendid editorial in last week's Amsterdam News on "Crime in Harlem," my opinion you have summed it up admirably. However, we all know that at present there is practically no provision for colored delinquents.
In accordance with the plan made by the State Department of Charities with the approval of the Board of Directors of the House of Refuge, bills providing for the acquiring of land in Orange County and the establishment of a State Training School for boys have been introduced in the Legislature by Senator Baumes and Assemblyman Esmond. The property in Orange County is being held in the Sinking Fund of New York City pending the passing of this legislation. The property of New York has agreed to give land to the State. upon which the State could erect a new and thoroughly modern institution for delinquent which would make adequate provision for fostered children. When this institution is completed, the House of Refuge would be closed and the Randall's Island property would revert to the use of the city.
An additional bill introduced by Senator Knight and Assemblyman Hutchinson provides that the matter should be referred to the State Office Site and Building Commission with power to act. This bill will probably be passed and will replace the bill of Senator Baumes providing for the acquiring of the Orange County site. It is most important that the bill providing for the establishment of the State Training School for Boys should also pass in order that work on the institution may be started immediately. This bill is Senate No. 1146, Int. 1029. It has now been referred to the Senate Finance Committee of which Mr. Hewitt is chairman. You have so much opportunity to see the need for a thoroughly up-to-date State farm school for delinquent group, particularly for the colored group, that we feel that your influence in this matter would be especially helpful.
I am writing to ask if you will use your influence in every possible way to pass this bill. Communication should be dressed to Hon. Charles J. Kewitt.
By KELLY MILLER dilated upon "Self-Determination" and the "Rights of Minorities" he probably never had the colored American in the back part of his mind. On the other hand, President Coolidge indulged in sundry, kindly and earnest brother in black. I hardly think that the different modes of expression indicated any essential and favor with attitude on the did both Messrs. it has usuicy for Republic declare their sp wards the Negro, dilated the African brother in black.

A SUGGESTION
That a Fund Be Raised by Colonel Young's Friends for Poor Artists.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Sir:
The suggestion made by Major Atwood, long time friend of Col. Charles Young, at the memorial meeting held at Dr. Cullen's on March 10, deserves to be broadcast. It is his thought that a fund, in remembrance of Colonel Young, to be devoted to helping struggling artists, should be started by some of his friends. It may not be widely known, but it ought to be that Charles Young was particularly interested in young people of this type, and gave them freely and often financial assistance and words of encouragement, both of which aspiring artists must ask.
I ask the courtesy of your columns to get this fine suggestion into the thought circulation of our great city.
BLANCHE WATSON.
To the Editor of the Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
In truth and justice, I am taking the liberty to praise the well-written memoirs of March 13. With such a champion, I can readily see why The Amsterdam News is profoundly sought and esteemed by one and all. Keep up the good work!
Very gratefully and sincerely yours,

and favor without any declared attitude on the race question, as did both Messrs. Wilson and Coolidge. It has usually been good policy for Republican Presidents to declare their special attitude toward the race, by reasons of traditional political influence. I believe that Mr. Hoover is the first to break the precedent. I regard the break as being wholly without significance, one way or the other. The race would have thought none the more the Mr. Wilson had he mentioned the Mr. Wilson's state papers and ignored him. His actions, nor any less of Mr. Coolidge had he been less fulsome in words and more fruitful in deeds.
Whatever the President may or may not say in his state papers, the plain fact remains that the Negro will be treated by a separate formula, if he is favored at all. In the entire list of his public appointments it is doubtful if a single Negro will ever occur to him unless he were especially presented and urged as such. A hundred white men would occur. President ahead of a single Negro for such positions as Register of the Treasury or Recorder of Deeds, except upon the basis of racial isolation.
Appointments are based upon representation as well as fitness. Each section and each element of the population demand represent recognition. Requisite degree of fitness and efficiency will be taken for approval. It is in this spirit that the Negro ought to and does clamor for recognition in official places.
We had just as well eliminate the nonsense so frequently in-dulged in that the Negro asks no special claim on racial grounds, but merely recognition as a man. This racial renunciation would be

In this case the magical subject is the island of Haiti, with a terrain like a lump of chaos dropped from the sky and a culture ranging from ancient sorcery to exquisite modernism; a land of macabre superstitions, where girls and goats exchange souls, where gods become incarnate in the bodies of ragged peasants, where hermaphroditic goddesses preside over altars of skulls, where dead men are stolen from their graves and revived to work in the cane fields; a land which, nevertheless, has produced the most cultivated society in the Western Hemisphere: a land whose final touch of fantasy is supplied by a bloody circus of American marines sent down to set it straight.
The personified miracle is William B. Seabrook, a Southern white American who can purge himself of all racial prejudice and preconception. This is no easy thing to do, for after prejudice is sloughed off certain preconceptions remain which will creep out in writing. To write this book Mr. Seabrook had to achieve a moral balance which was a greater feat than the book itself.
Mr. Seabrook went to Haiti with no idea of collecting propaganda either for or against the Negroes, to see for himself instead of accepting what the marines told him, to correlate and compare what he found with the general data of history. As he held true to this purpose, he wrote the best book of the year on the book Beside "The Magic Island" the book of white fictioners on the Negro are no more than catchpenny tinSEL.
The most telling part of the book deals with Voodooism. Voodooism has long been called the curse of Haiti by outsiders; it has been mentioned as sufficient cause for foreign intervention; it has been stigmatized as pure diabolism. Mr. Seabrock went, into the interior of Haiti, with Negroes who did not know him. President of Haiti, gained their confidence and was admitted to secret rites never before seen by a white man. He learned that Voodooism is not mere superstition or diabolism, that it is as much a religion as Christianity. Admitting that its practice is accompanied by sorcery and witchcraft, he says that these things are by-products, pre-defined in Catholic medieval Europe in soffiting Voodooism he defends its affinity which churchmen have condemned:
"Voodoo is not a secret cult or society in the sense that Free-masonry or the Roserucian cult is secret; it is a religion, and secret only as Christianity was secret in the catacombs, through fear of persecution. Like every living religion it has its inner mysteries, but that is secretness in a different sense. It is a religion toward which whites generally have been either scoffers, splers, or active enemies, and whose adherents therefore have been forced to practice whatever all where whites were concerned."
To protect the author against possible enemies the Voodooists made an onuanga, or magic charm, for him. Before that he had come to believe in the potency of the amulets which the white world laughs at. He had seen Maman

well enough if it could be carried out in letter and spirit. But we know all too well that this will not be. He will not be given a competitive chance with other men. Unless, then, he receives special racial recognition, he will be left out altogether. It is to be hoped, therefore, that Mr. Hoover will see his special place in the claim of the colored man as supporting element of the Republican Party and as a contributing factor of our common citizenship.
There was no vacuous talk during the campaign of handling the Negro, as any other Republican. Special dispensation was set up to deal with him as a separated racial political entity. It would break the logic of logic now to ignore race lines and treat the Negro competitively in the distribution of office.
If a "illy white" Republican wishes to eliminate the Negro wholly from the game of office, let him advise the President to declare the avowed policy that he will not appoint any man on account of race, but wholly on competence. There are ten times as many white as black to draw from and, besides, the white pirant has ten times the opportunity of acquiring experience and expertise for every position.
The policy of President Taft, mildly modified by Mr. Hoover in his Tennessee campaign speech, to the effect that a candidate for appointment should meet the approval of the people among whom he is to function, is perfectly fair and feasible on its face; but, like all fair mottoes, it works to exclude the Negro in every instance. We wish to see the Negro's cause specifically mentioned in state papers, for the great fear that, if he is not specifically included, he is practically excluded.

Celeb, high priestess of Voodoo, exert magic spells and catch a thief, cure a dying girl, and win her grandson's sweetheart for him; he had seen her produce changes in material things. Instead of scouting he says: "When such things occur at holy shrines, they are called miracles; when they occur in a psychological laboratory, they are called science; when they occur in the Haitian jungle, they are called Voodoo magic."
He admits the charge, so often brought against Voodoo by its enemies, that human sacrifice is sometimes part of the ritual. But he reminds the reader that human sacrifice has always had its place in the religions of every race and color—Egyptian, Greek, Haitian, Druld, Hebrew, and Christian. White people who condemn the Haitians forget, if they ever knew, that their hallowed Saxon ancestors drank wine and blood out of human skulls.
The most fascinating scene in the book, as well as the best writing, is in the chapter called "Goat-cry, Girl-cry." in which a girl kneels on all four and stares into the eyes of the goat till they exchange souls and the girl bleats and eats leaves while the goat cries out in a human voice. The goat is then killed. This was the nearest thing to a human sacrifice that the author saw. One must read the book to catch the eerie power of this transposition of souls. The author cries out: "I believe in such ceremonies. I hope that they will never die out or be abolished. I believe that in some form or another they answer a deep need of the universal human soul."
But the miracle of Seabrook does not stop with this. Many white authors are sympathetic enough with the ignorant, clownish or unaspiring Negro, but when they come to the upper class Negroes they try to show them up. When Seabrook leaves the interior of Haiti and goes to the capital to take a book at with the class of Negroes with him the same fervor with which prayed in the mountains: "Protect me from misrepresenting those people, and give me power to write honestly. . . ."
He finds a society which he thinks is in some respects a great deal more civilized than that of white America. He finds beauty, wit, culture and a delicate savoir faire never surpassed and seldom equaled outside of continental Europe. He indicates the habit of calling Haitian politics pointing out that only six Presidents of Haiti have been assassinated, a record not so much worse than that of the United States.

SYPHILIS is an infectious disease of the blood of slow evolution, and may affect any organ in the body. It is transmitted by contact with the sore or secretions containing the spirochete pallida, as the germ of the disease is called. This contact may be made during sexual intercourse or otherwise.
Syphilis may be transmitted to the offspring through the mother's blood, in which case the child has hereditary or congenital syphilis. As a general rule, the point of entrance of the germ in the body is followed by a hard sore called a chancre. A chancre may take from three to six weeks to appear after infection. These sores contain the germs and commonly occur on the genitals, on the lips, etc., hence care must be exercised in the use of drinking cups in public places.

There are a great many cases of spyhils in which no evidence of this initial sore has been observed. This disease is very treacherous inasmuch as it may remain dormant in the body for many years without symptoms, only to manifest itself later in life by some grave alliment.
Several months after the body has become infected a generalized rash may appear, thus making the diagnosis self-evident. This secondary rash may not appear, however, and the individual goes along without treatment until something does happen which requires a blood test. The most common syphilite manifestation is the little hard sore on the genitals or lips, which does not heal readily; patches on the lining membrane of the mouth; enlarge-

Five Years Ago
Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Crisis Magazine, returned from a 15,000-mile trip to West Africa, Spain and Portugal.

The State Charities Aid Association was on the warpath against chiropractors.
The first inauguration of our first President took place in New York City when George Washington took the oath of office in 1789. This was followed by a "grand exhibition of fireworks." The first ice cream advertisement in history appeared in the New York Gazette on May 19, 1777. In it a "confectioner from London" announced that the new delicacy might be had at his shop "almost every day." Of twenty-four collar factories in the United States, sixteen are in New York State, Pennsylvania, with four, in second. The Hudson Valley yearly produces apples worth about four million dollars and other fruit worth two million dollars more; farming alone brings greater revenue for the farmers in this region. There are in service in the Empire State about six million gas and electric meters. These are almost evenly divided between gas and electric, each group four-fifths are in homes, each group four-fifths are in homes. The Empire State can match this distribution.
The first Boheman immigrant in America came to New York in 1633. His name was Augustine Herrman. He became a Government Counselor. The farm population of New York State decreased by 2,000 in 1928. Hired men also decreased, by 1,000. There are now about 765,000 persons on farm in New York. M. of Albany County, N. X. K. 527 square miles, was included in a single grant made in 1631 by the Dutch Government to Killian Van Rensselaer, a diamond merchant of Amsterdam.

As serious an aspect as this disease may present, the fact that "606" was discovered makes it one of the diseases which the physician can treat with a considerable degree of assurance that good and immediate results will be obtained. Once the case is diagnosed as syphilis, a modified and more easily administered preparation than the original "606" is given routinely by all physicians. The symptoms will in most cases begin to subside after the second or third injections, but treatment must be carried on until the blood becomes good. How should we safeguard against this disease? Every one should have a blood test. No person who has never had made a test of his or her blood can be absolutely certain that he or she is free from syphilis. Take the necessary precautions against infection. If you have the disease now, follow out your treatment until you are discharged as cured.
There will be a public mass meeting tomorrow night at 8 p.m. at the 135th street branch of the Public Library, under the auspices of the Community Center. The Old Age Pension, unemployment, and housing conditions will be discussed. Speakers from welfare and civic organizations and churches will be on the program. The branch is now featuring an exhibit of "The Negro in Sculpture," in the Division of Negro Literature and History, third floor, until April 5.

Summer and Winter
TWAS summer when my love began, just summertime.
pegah—just summer!
When my heart 'most with joy'
I'll be there.
Twas summer—just summer!
Twas summer when the skies were blue
When birds poured forth to me and you
Sweet songs and when your love was true—just summer!
Twas winter when my heart was sad—winter!
And when I most went raving mad—winter!
Twas winter when, alas, I learned Twas useless for my heart to yearn For you, when all my love you
