Field ordered him out and, according to Mr. and Mrs. Field, Wilson beat him over the head with his blackjack and left their home. The couple deny the officer's statement that Field drew a gun on him. Shortly afterward Wilson returned to Field's home in company with two other officers. They searched the place and found Field's revolver lying on the bed. Field said he showed the officers his permit to carry a gun and that Wilson took both his permit and his customs badge from him. Field was then placed under arrest.
Wilson admitted taking the badge but denied any knowledge of the pistol permit, when he testified. Field said later that he found the permit when he returned home. Bond for his release was furnished by Junius M. Green, 180 West 136th street.

Returned to His Home in Brooklyn Late Thursday Night; Complained Later of Pains Around His Heart— End Came in Short Time
Captain John F. Archiopoli, white, commander of the West 135th street police station, died at 1:45 o'clock Friday morning at his home, 260 Jay street, Brooklyn, where he had lived a number of years. He was rated as one of the ablest men in the Police Department. During his short stay in Harlem he succeeded in endearing all law-abiding citizens to him.
He figured prominently in quelling tong wars in Chinatown and broke up many dangerous Italian gangs. It is reported that he spoke sixteen languages.
Succeeding him in temporary command is Acting Captain George A. Burnell, desk lieutenant at the same station. On Friday it was expected that a new captain would be appointed on Monday or Tuesday. Captain Archiopoli was given command of the Harlem Precinct Jan. 4 of this year, following a general police shakeup by Commissioner Grover A. Whalen.
His Death a Shock.
The captain's death came as a sudden shock to the men at the Sixteenth Precinct, as on Thursday night he reported off duty in apparent good health and arrived at his home about 11 o'clock. One hour after retiring he complained of a pain around his heart. The family physician was called, but he lived only an hour after he was stricken. He is survived by a widow, Louisa, and three children, Genevieve, John Jr. and Gerald, and his mother, who lived with him. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus, the Brooklyn Elks and many other fraternal orders, as well as many Italian societies.
While heart failure was the direct cause of the captain's death, his intimate friends report that his health began to fall after the death of Detective Bernardino Grattano, a brother-in-law of whom he was very fond. Grattano was shot by a hold-up man in 1924.

CORRECTIONS
On July 15, 1924, there appeared in The Amsterdam News an article which reflected upon the character of Mrs. Isabella C. Payne, then of Washington, D. C., staying at the time at 244 West 136th street, in this city, at the residence of Mrs. Fanny Koontz, mother of Beatrice Thomas. It has since been shown that the statements contained in the article were untrue and could not be supported by any evidence. The Amsterdam News, therefore, wishes to express regret for the imputations which then appeared in its pages, and to withdraw the charges then made against Mrs. Payne in their entirety.
It was Ralph DeMund, tenor, and not Harold DeMund, who appeared as one of the soloists at the Salem M. E. Church Lyceum on Sunday afternoon.
News yesterday that the officers took her husband from home in his underwear, although he pleaded with them to permit him to dress.
Mrs. Field admitted that she and her husband were quarrelling, but denied that she sent for the police. She said her son. Eugene. 12. was playing in the street at the time and that another tenant sent him to summon Patrolman Wilson when the tenant heard the altercation. Eugene did not know why he was sent after the officer, she said.

The long criminal record achieved in the short life of Arthur Southers, 25, 431 West Firty-third street, came to an end Thursday when Judge Charles C. Nott imposed a life sentence in General Sessions.
Southers, who was convicted of first degree burglary, received his sentence along with Nathan Lusters, 22, same address, an accomplice in crime. Lusters must serve fifteen to twenty years for his part in a daring robbery in which the loot was only $7.
The two men entered the apartment of Robert Busby, 419 West Fifty-third street, on Jan. 24. After smashing the door, they beat Busby and Fanny Gordon, a lodger, into insensibility and set fire to the place before leaving.
Souters has a long record and the sentence was mandatory for Judge Nott. Another sentence on a previous conviction for robbery will not be imposed. Judge Mulqueen withheld his action in order to allow the life sentence to begin immediately.
"Arabian Seer" Arrested.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., April 1. (ANP)—A self-styled "seer from Arabia." Gustavo Leah Ibn Singh, was arrested Tuesday.
NEWARK, April 2.—Two white men were killed and three wounded, one of them a policeman, when a man ran amuck with a shotgun near Sherman avenue and Astor street about 10 o'clock this morning. He has been partially identified as James Bell.
Bell, witnesses say, suddenly ran out and began shooting at Patrolman Thomas Hackett, on duty on Murray street, just behind Astor street fire station. At Astor street he killed his first victim. Another, believed to be W. Ramsberga, was shot as he fled. A third, wounded, tried to crawl to shelter. He then whirled and blazed away at the policeman. They shot it out there.
Buckshot mangled the patrolman's leg. Still he fired. The crazed man, shot through the head, tried to lift his gun to fire again and then crumpled. He is dying in City Hospital.
National Committee Adopts Resolution to That
WASHINGTON, April 1. — No future meetings or functions of the Republican National Committee are to be held in any place at any time where all members of the committee cannot attend, if the provisions of a resolution adopted at the committee meeting here March 6 are carried out, it became known Monday.
The action of the committee, it was learned, followed a luncheon given at the Mayflower Hotel on March 6 by Chairman Hubert Work in honor of
former chairmen. The resolution was offered by National Committeeman Clarence C. Hamlin of Colorado. The management of the Mayflower Hotel, it is stated, was questioned and emphatically denied that there was any truth in the statement that it would not serve all members of the committee. At the Work luncheon no Negro member of the National Committee was present. Only two Negroes were present in the dining room. They were Robert R. Church of Memphis, Tenn., and John T. Risher. Not being members of the committee, they were not luncheon guests but simply sat and listened to the speeches. Mrs. Williams, Mrs. Booze and Perry W. Howard, the National Committeeman for Mississippi, were absent.

LEADERS UP IN AIR ON HOOVER POLICY
President's Pronouncement on Southern Political Situation Causes Mild Alarm
President's Pronouncement on Southern Political Situation Causes Mild Alarm
Executive Voices Disapproval of White and Black Leaders in Several States Two-Party System in South Needed, Is View
CHICAGO, April 1 (ANP).—Three influences are contributing to cause a mild state of alarm among Negroes since the announcement of the new policy of the Republican party in the South was made by President Herbert Hoover early in the week.
TWO
The first and most important of these influences is the interpretation put upon the President's utterance by a certain section, of the white newspapers have stated rather definitely that the intention of the President is to ultimately chase the Negro out of the Republican party.
The effect of such statements, supported by such evidence as these writers are able to assemble, is to bring into action the perpetual dread among the Negroes of the building up of a so-called "Lily-white" Republican party in the South, which will exclude them from its councils.
The third influence grows out of whatever remaining power the Negro Republican leaders in the South still possess and may be wielded, either to justify their past policies or to embarrass the new ones of the adminis-
No Need for Alarm.
The highlights of the Hoover statement, in which no reference to race or color was made, were that in a number of the Southern states the Republican party machinery was in need of reorganization by the people states. The president declared: First, that in Mississippi, Georgia and South Carolina patronage abuses had been so great, especially in the postal service, that the administration had lost confidence in them. He suggests that the people of Georgia, color, attempt reorganization, and in the event they cannot initiate a better organization through the leadership of men who will command confidence and protect the public service, the different Federal departments will be compelled to secure advice as to the selection of Federal officials.
Second, that Republican leadership in Alabama, Arkansas, Texas and Florida has in recent times shown increasing strength and is now renderable and conscientious service in maintaining whole organization under whose advice the appointments to public office have steadily improved. Third, that Republican leadership in the border states (Kentucky, Tennessee and Oklahoma) and in Indiana and Ohio have long since built up vigorous party organization which assures Republican representation in the Congress from those states.
Church's Leadership Praised.
Thus the President expresses his disapproval of the Republican party management in South Carolina which has Joseph Tolbert, a white man, as his leader, and places the blame on the Republican party where Robert R. Church dominates the Republican political scene.
Negro political leaders seem a bit wary about expressing themselves at this point, although there seems to be a rather well defined feeling that the Hoover manifesto, if it was not intended to direct the Republican in the Negro's path, will serve as the opening wedge in his more general enfranchisement in the South and to his enjoyment of a greater share of political benefits because of the value that he may be to either of two strong political parties.
The Associated Negro Press sent the following telegram to a number of Negro leaders:
Leaders Queried.
"Please send statement expressing your opinion of President Hoover's announcement regarding present Republican organizations in Mississippi, South Carolina and Georgia and the importance of preceiving your discussing possible effect on Negroes generally, but in South particularly."
The message was sent to Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute; Dr. John R. Hawkins, head of the colored voters' division during the 1950s; Dr. William Church, Tennessee Republican leader; Perry W. Howard, Republican National Committeeman for Mississippi; Mrs. Mary Booze, Republican National Committeewoman for Mississippi; Mrs. Geo. S. Williams, Republican Committeewoman for Georgia; Dr. W. E. D. BuDois, editor of the Crisis.
Few Replies Received.
Three days later, and at the time this dispatch is being written, replies are still being awaited. One comes from Mrs. Mary Booze, and as follows: "Read the President's statement carefully and assume that a good reason for general alarm on the part of the Negro race, either in the South or elsewhere in the nation. "The statement will naturally have a depressing effect upon the minds of most of the Negro leaders in the South until its real intent has had time to bear fruit. "While the action of the President will affect the prestige of a few race leaders, the more than offset by the exercise of the franchise of the masses if he succeeds in his undertaking. "The President has undertaken a herculean task which many former leaders have attempted and failed, but President Koehler is accustomed to tackling and solving problems, so it will not surprise him the succeeds in his undertaking to build a militant Republican party in
every state in the South within the next four years.
"I have full faith in the President's sincerity of purpose, and I am going to give his proposal my full support and co-operation." Mr. Church replied: "I do not care to make a statement just now."
Favor Two-Party System.
Congress-candidate Presidient, who visited the Hook, Rook, and Spencer during the week, thought that above all, the Negro in the South should seize the opportunity to vote which the creation of a two-party system would offer and use his ballot to put his white friends into office if he cannot vote Negroes in. Edward H. Wright, former Illinois congressman, was reluctant to express a criticism of the Hoover move, so long as the evidence of its color bias is so filmy. "Mr. Hoover said that he wished to give the Republican party in the South a respectable leadership which would have the confidence of the people," asserted Mr. Wright. He did not want to be white or colored, and in Tennessee, where the leadership is colored, he approved the Republican program, whereas he repudiated the white leadership of South Carolina. However, I have always been against the leadership we have had in the South, which, without controlling any votes, was enabled to exercise such a power influence in the party conventions.

Dixie G. O. P. Leaders Shorn of Power by New
Edict
WASHINGTON, April 1. — The Federal patronage system of the South, which has brought Negro Republican leaders under fire, was seen storm of its power and informed base today that it was indicated by President Hoover will act for the G. O. P. in Dixie during the present administration.
The trio—Postmaster General Brown, Walter F. Newton, the President's secretary, and James F. Burke, counsel of the National Republican Committee, control patronage it has reported, according to the plan coming from Mr. Hoover, the party must be reformed by the branches in the states.
This announcement has been taken to indicate that the G. O. P. will become a white controlled organization in the South. The triumph will have the task of approving all appointments made for Federal office.
Trouble in getting leaders together is expected in South Carolina, Georgia and Mississippi, states in which Negroes have heretofore had large part in determining Federal office positions, distribution of postmasterships, collectorships of ports and internal revenue positions, hundreds of jobs as census takers will undergo the scrutiny of the Hoover aides. The post of commiteeman has been vacant in Georgia since the last Republican national convention. The situation is still Davis resigned. The situation is still Perry W. Howard in Mississippi, where Perry W. Howard assistant to the Attorney General, is to be tried again on charges of accepting cash from office seakers.
Denied Bail
Ned Bailey, 43, 381 Edgecombe avenue, charged with felonious assault upon George Jackson, who gave his address at the Hotel Dumas, 205 West 133th street, was held without bail for a further hearing today when arranged before Magistrate Dodge in Heights Court Monday. The court held the rest of 133th street station was the arrival fleeer. The manager of the hotel said that Jackson was not registered there.

Orchestra Leader Accuses B'klynite
Vernon Andrades Struck Over Head, With Revolver, He Says
Vernan Andrades, popular jazz band leader at the Renaissance ballroom, 138th street and Seventh avenue, accused Henry Haummel, 45, 35 Parkside avenue, Brooklyn, of brating him over the head with the helmet, a revolver and threatening to shoot to shoot, when he was arraigned in Heights Court Sunday morning before Magistrate Smith.
Haummel, who was arrested the night before by Patrolman Knowles of the West Side street station, was held in $1,000 bail for a further hearing Friday on a charge of felonious assault.
The trouble started when Haummel called Andrades from the orchestra and engaged him in a hot argument, and laid, both men cursed each other.
Andrades lives at 158 West 118th street. The Renaissance management, when interviewed Monday evening, would not comment on the incident. It seems, however, that the hospital has had a patient for a dance Saturday night and tried some way to blame Andrades for the poor attendance.
Police Captain Dies Suddenly at Home
(Continued from Page 1.)
Harlem is a better place in which to live.
"The Negroes here are a very good class of people when you get to know them," he said, in a recent article in the Herald-Tribune. "They are a law-abiding people. Of course, a colored person likes his music and his dancing; but 99 per cent of the cabarets here are conducted more properly than they are on Broadway."
These expressions followed closely upon the comments of Judge Charles C. Newman in General Sessions, who viewed with alarm what he considered to be Harlem's high percentage of crime.
The more than 142 men under the command of Captain Archipoli pay him high tribute as having been a "square shooter" and dealing justly with both white and colored people.
When any one of the sixty-seven colored patrolmen performed meritorious duty, the captain cited him as a regulation report to Police Headquarters. Several of these reports have been turned in since he assumed command.
Fought Police Brutality.
During his short stay in Harlem Captain Archipelago continually fought unwarranted abuse upon prisoners by the men under his command, and publicly asked Harlem citizens to report all cases of police brutality to him personally. "Never a keek passes but what I do not drill this into the men," he said in a recent interview with The Amsterdam News. Another rule he put in force was that of courtesy to citizens at all times. When he was placed in command, one of his first acts was to clean house, physically. Fresh paint, clean woodwork, floors spick and span, new desk arrangements and other features greater efficiency were included in his plans, and admirably carried out.
Captain Archipoll joined the police force Oct. 16, 1903. He became a sergeant Feb. 24, 1918; a lieutenant, Dec. 10, 1921; and a captain on Nov. 1, 1922. He served as a member of Commissioner Enright he went to South America as one of the sides of Enright, who was a delegate to the International Police Conference. Archipoll served as an interpreter. Press reports gave his age as 50, but he was 61.
Autopsy Ordered.
An autopsy, ordered Saturday upon the body of Captain Archipoll by Dr. Robert Shoubly, assistant medical examiner, at the Kings County Hospice, where the patient had died of arterio-sclerosis or hardening of the arteries, according to the report of Dr. Manuel E. Martin, deputy chief medical examiner. The theory of foul play in connection with Captain Archipoll's sudden death in the police department, as he was known to have incurred the emity of many
Homicides Leap to New High Mark During First Three Months of Year
Courts Convicted Three, Freed Two; State Building Cases Against Four Others; Knife Found Favorite Weapon for Slaying
Homicide—that ancient human pastime for which Cain is credited as the founder—flourished like the proverbial bay tree among New York's colored population during the first three months of 1929, a survey showed yesterday. According to figures obtained by The Amsterdam News there were nine killings in which persons were charged with homicide. That figure is four more than the last quarter of 1928.
The number does not include four cases of manlaughter by motor vehicles and one slaying in which police are still seeking their man.
The doors of the penitentiary have already received three persons charged with manlaughter in which one was acquitted in General Session. One other was discharged in the Homicide Court.
Mrs. Nellie Frances Pendleton, 24, clubwoman and civic worker of the Paul Lawrence Dunbur Apartments, was the only suicide recorded. Mrs. Pendleton killed herself with gas January 1.
Knives were used in eight of the cases of criminal manslaughter. None markeds of a real murder. Saturday night gun, jealousy and unbridled rage appeared as the chief cause.
Robbed Employer to Aid His Sick Wife
Pleading guilty to a charge of unlawful charge, Henry Wright, of 297 West 127th street, who declared that he neither gambled, drank, smoked nor swore, was sentenced to an indeterminate term in the penitentiary last Wednesday by Judge Barrett in Bronx County Court.
The need of funds with which to help his sick wife was the excuse Wright gave for entering the home of his employer, Alfred Beyrod, 760 Beyrod place, with duplicate keys, while allowing the store cash and jewelry on this occasion. Wright denied the theft of $130
LeRoy Smith, 20, 2791 Eighth avenue, was stabbed to death in a fight January 17 at 117 West 137th street. William Fitzpatrick, 20, 2821 Eighth avenue, was charged with the slaying and indicted for first degree murder. He was acquitted March 7.
Separation and jealousy led Louis Dover, 132 West 122d street, to stab his wife, Edith, to death in the hallway at 6 West 128th street on January 17. He was charged to seven years in the penitentiary on a second degree manslaughter charge.
The one unsolved slaying in which the suspect is at large was that of Mrs. Lorenzene Lansing, 26, 214 West 131st street, who was shot in the courtyard on January 19. Roles are still seeking George Nichols, his sweetheart, who is suspected of the crime.
Mrs. Emma Grover, 27, 385 Lenox avenue, whose husband succumbed in Harlem Hospital three days after a fight in which he and she were cut, changed in Homicide Court on March 21.
Andrew Gabel, 28, 12 West 118th street, who is alleged to have stabbed his wife, Marie, 28, to death on February 21, is awaiting trial on the charge.
Five homicide cases originating during the first three months are still under investigation. The Court of General Session, however, disposed of four other cases in which the slayings were committed since October, 1928.

The Southern ideals of George Black, white, 342 West Seventy-first street, got something of a setback, Monday, in Night Court. Black, who hails from Georgia, where white men are men and Negroes objects of scorn, found that New York is just a little different.
Refusing to pay a taxicab bill of $400 for the West Deaton, white, 327 East 114th street, had driven him from Forty-sixth street and Seventh avenue to 138th street and Lenox avenue, Black engaged in a bitter argument with the driver. Patrolman Matthews of the Sixteenth precinct was called by the chauffeur.
The Georgian insulted Matthews because of his color and refused to settle his bill. He was arrested and continued his tirade against the police. The bushel told him that all men in uniform are respected in New York and fined Black $10. He refused to pay and was led to jail.

In order to give you better service the management of The Amsterdam News will in the future close its forms to advertisers promptly at 1:00 P.M. each Tuesday. The business office is open every evening and Sunday all day to receive advertising.
In his address, Dr. Holmes said in part: "You have all come, I am sure, to sympathize with our bereaved friends and to mourn with them in this dark hour of bitter loss. I hope not one of you has come here with any superstitious dread or horror of suicide—that dread and horror which have made so many bitter heart and cruel in death. The sick in mind are no less deserving of our affectionate consideration and humane treatment than the sick in body. The affliction of the one is as real as the affliction of the other. This poor boy took his own life. For fear; let us have no dread. This is not a sin; it is a tragedy. He is not to be blamed; he is to be pitied.
"Let me, in respect of the memory of this dear boy, and as part of my sad duty on this occasion, state a rule which will in many cases stay the hand of suicide. Never do an invariable act before consulting some one and asking his advice. Let us treat our friends as friends and share with them our sorrow, and let us treat them with care, helping help the strenken to bear the burdens of life. But when, as so often it happens, the tragic deed is done, as in this case, let us not blame; let us nity; let us not fear for with Him

8th AVENUE APARTMENTS PLENTIFUL
Rents Seem Reasonable Until Inspection Reveals No Steam and Poor Condition
Dark, Dirty Hallways, Elevated Railway Noises Among Inconveniences Which Cause so Many "For Rent" Signs
By THELMA E. BERLACK
If you are looking for a q which to live, don't choose Eight trainee, but don't be deceived meat hunting" tour made me re Eight avenue between 19th and the Kings dark, dirty halls lead 11 trains, while a direct neces are so noisy that it is impossibly a person in the same room with you are bothered with the hounds
If you are looking for a quiet, clean section of the city in which to live, don't choose Eighth avenue! The rents sound attractive, but don't be deceived by them. My Saturday "apartment hunting" tour made me realize that most of the houses on Eighth avenue between 130th and 135th streets are steamless, and the long, dark, dirty halls leading to them are dangerous: the 17 rooms, while a direct necessity for transportation purposes, are noisy that it is impossible to hear with ease the voice of a person in the same room with you; from 140th to 146th streets you are bothered with the hundred and one street markets.
Some of the figures quoted me are as follows: Four rooms, fourth floor in the rear, at No. 2449 for $33; five rooms, fourth floor, at No. 246 for $35; five rooms, one flight up, at No. 242 for $45 (the third and fourth floors in the same houses rent for $40.
A tenant at No. 2540, where there are vacancies, told me that he pays $35 for five rooms. The coal to heat the apartment costs him about $1.50 a week—a hundred pound bag sells for $11.
Going north, I found that No. 2615 was the first house (with vacant apartments) offering steam heat. The junior could not be found, hence I saw no apartment in the house, but door, where steam is also furnished tenants, five rooms on the top floor rent for $50, while the same apartment on the fourth floor rents for $55.
The Eighth avenue "For Rent" runs in several instances, drew my attention. Reproduced here are the images of some of them:
Don't modern people expect all
three things in a "little" apart-
ment.
Five Large Rooms—Bath
Rent $35 and $37.50
Janitor, 3574 Eighth Ave.
or
Store, 3570 Eighth Ave.
I suppose so many people had
looked at and turned down the
apartments that the owner thought
i wise to list the renting price.)
A huge sign at No. 2704 offered the following inducement:
3 and 4 Room Furnished Apts.
Per Week
and up.
Inquire 1 flight up, Apt. 4.
On "rent experience" this was the prize winner. The superintendent told me that the first floor apartment (three rooms furnished) had been taken. Eleven dollars a week is the rent asked for it. She offered and showed me a four-room apartment two flights up, saying it would cost me $13 a week if I took only three of the rooms, or $16 a week for the four.
Have you ever heard of a "d dead room"? Well, I asked what was to become of the fourth room if I rented only three. The lady's answer was to the effect that the fourth room, which opened on a hall, would be a "dead room"; sometimes it might be rented by her to a transient for a night or two, or it might be raised up and left that way until I moved. Under no circumstance could I rent this steamless apartment unfinished. The high bath tub in the kitchen served also as the wash tub and laundry purposes; the toilet and cloakware were in the hall. The undertendants in most of the steamless houses are that come the summer months the apparatus for steam will be installed in the houses, since the law requires bath now. They say also that the increase in rents for these apartments will not be more than two or three dollars.

Barefoot Seer Sees Subway Tragedy
Says He Told of Times Squares Horror—"Heals the Blind"
Elder Clayburn Martin, barefoot prophet and divine healer, 43 Barclay street. Newark, prophesied another subway disaster at 11:33 a.m. Monday, while on a visit to the offices of The Amsterdam News. He is said to have prophesied the Times Square subway horror, which occurred last year.
Elder Martin was telling a reporter something of his life when he stopped suddenly and said: "I see another one; they are bringing them up." When questioned about what he saw, he said it was a repetition of the Times Square tragedy.
Son of Slaves.
Prophet Martin was born in 1856 at Henry County, Va., the son of slave parents. His mother, Drulilla, has been dead 52 years, he said, and his father, James Richmond, he knew nothing of. He was "called by the Lord" at a very early age, he said, but did not obey the call until he was 22.
He recalled that he "went about the Lord's business" in the days when boys wore copper-toed shoes. However, he discarded his shoes "at the Lord's command" and has gone bare-footed and bare-headed the rest of his life, and he is now 73. Elder Martin says he can neither read nor write, but that he receives his instructions directly from God. "I have never been to a school in my life," he said.
Elder Martin declared that, with the exception of New York, he has been arrested as a freak in nearly every city he has visited, but was always released. He has appeared in the States of Ohio, Illinois, Kentucky, North and South Carolina, Michigan, New Jersey and several others. He is a giant in stature, with bushy, wiry, gray hair, clear, twinkling eyes and commanding presence.
"Heals the Blind."
The Rev. S. J. Worrell, known as "Steamboat Bill," phonograph recording preacher, told of Elder Martin's remarkable healing power. He related that Elder Martin had healed a well-known blind man of Harlem during recent evangelistic services here.
Prophet Martin is holding forth this week at 1007 Fulton street, Brooklyn, under the auspices of the Rev. Mr. Carrington.
No Lynchings in 43 States During Year 1928
"Forty-three States were free from lynching during 1928, in comparison with 41 States the preceding year, 38 States in 1928, and 38 States in 1925," according to the Commission on Race Relations of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, in announcing its eighth annual honor roll of States free of lynching. "This is the largest number of States and the greatest territory of the nation ever free of lynching. The number of victims of the mob last year was also lower than in any preceding year since records have been kept.
"The Honor Roll for 1928 includes three States—Arkansas, Kentucky and Tennessee, which were restored to the roll because they were again free of the evil; although New Mexico, which was on the Honor Roll in 1927, was removed because of the lynching of a Mexican," the Commission reports.
"Of the eleven persons lynched last year, five were in Mississippi, two in Texas, two in Louisiana, one in Missouri and one in New Mexico. However, according to the records of Prof. Monroe N. Work of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., considerable vigilance was practiced in that twenty-four attempted lynchings were prevented last year."
CHARGED WITH TAKING
75 CENTS, DENIED BAIL
Charged with robbing a companion in a gambling game of 75 cents. Nathaniel Graham, 24. 415 West Thirsk, fifth street, was arraigned before Magistrate Smith in Heights Court Friday on complaint of Seifert Beckles, 29. 19 West 136th street, in whose home the game was conducted. Graham was held without ball for the Grand Jury.
Frank Walcott, also of 19 West 136th street, and said to be the "game keeper," corroborated Beckles' testimony in saying that Graham took the 25 cents from Beckles at the point of a gun.

Lodge Trustee Pleads Not Guilty to Charge
Mrs. Annie Hicks, 50, 189 West 138th street, trustee of the defunct Leonia Temple No. 7, Knights of Alpha, Ladies' Omega Lodge, pleaded not guilty to a charge of grand larceny when arraigned Thursday in General Sessions.
An indictment was filed two days before. The charge against the fraternal woman was made on complaint of Mrs. Cornelia Frazier, 43, 1 West 152d street. Mrs. Frazier charges that the accused, a trustee of the lodge, was authorized to draw the organization's funds, $302.58, from a bank and divide it equally among eighteen members.
The complainant declares that the money was drawn from the Union Dime Savings Bank and that no division was made. Barney L. Milwick, white, has been retained as counsel for Mrs. Hicks.

Prison Bars for Lad Who Pilfered Friend
A homeless lad who did not know how to appreciate kindlings was sentenced Monday to the State Reformatory at Elmira by the Court of Special Sessions. The youth was was Daniel Taylor, 19, who was convicted of larceny of a suitcase and wearing apparel valued at $80. Taylor was befriended by Ralph Bates, a chaufeur, who lives at 209 West 135th street. The lad disappeared Jan. 29 with Bates' belongings and was arrested March 15. The suitcase and apparel were found in a pawn shop.
Patrolman Arrests "Colored" White Man
Disgilding himself as a colored man for the purpose of shadowing a white man whom he accused of breaking up his home, Joseph Moslowsky, 35, white, 61 East Seventh street, was arrested Saturday on a charge of disorderly conduct and given a suspended sentence, when arraigned in Coney Island Court before Magistrate Blanchfield. Moslowsky's accent gave him away when he aroused the suspicions of Patrolman Sayers at Severity-first street and Eighteenth avenue. Brooklyn. A smear of the officer's finger on Moslowsky's face told the rest.
Quarter-Million-Dollar Swimming Pool Approved by Head of Borough
Board of Estimate to Be Asked for Appropriation; Community Council Wants 134th Street Site; White Groups Advocate 120th Street
A quarter-million-dollar public swimming pool has been approved for Harlem by Borough President Julius Miller and the Board of Estimate and Apportionment will probably be asked for the appropriation tomorrow, Col. Frank H. Hines, superintendent of public offices and buildings, stated Monday.
The Manhattan official advocated a swimming pool for uptown folk Sept. 27, but this proposal was turned down by the board. The new action came after the North Harlem Community Council and two white civic bodies sent resolutions and letters urging the improvement.
The Harlem Board of Commerce and the Anthony C. La Rocca Association were the white bodies who also asked for the swimming pool.
The North Harlem Community Council asked that the property adjoining the public bath house at 35 West 134th street be selected. The white organizations urged the board to select a site at 120th street and Erivan place.

Col. Hines, who supervises all Manhattan baths and swimming pools, indicated that he is in favor of the 194th street location. Whether the board will vote the appropriation for either is problematical.
Hila Bath Record.
While upper Harlem has not shown proper appreciation of the 194th street, bath house, President Miller contends that the upstairs section should benefit along with the other sections in public improvements, Col. Hines said. The superintendent declared that the record is the lowest in Manhattan. Col. Hines added, however, that a gradual increase is noticeable in the reports. The figures would be boosted much higher with the erection of a pool, he said. Other swimming resorts draw patrons from distant sections of Manhattan and the baths located at these places are used more than others, it was asserted.
Reports for February show that 19,780 persons used the 184th street baths. While this shows a marked increase over previous records, it is far below the average for other houses. Col Hines stated. The average number of users is about 200 an hour for the rest of the borough, he said. Asked is he thought Harlem had better facilities for home bathing than same other sections, the superintendent replied in the negative.
Should the Board of Estimate appropriate the money, asked, the church site east of the bath would be constructed. The building would be constructed as an addition to the baths so persons could use both without going outside.

Two Implicated in Holdup Confess
Patrolman Williams Makes Brave Capture of Armed Suspect
Declaring that his wife was to give birth to a child within a few months and that his friends had induced him to take part in a holdup while he was under the influence of liquor, John Keller, 25, 40 West 128th street, pleaded guilty to a charge of robbery in Heights Court Friday before Magistrate Smith and was held in $10,000 ball for the Grand Jury.
Patrolman Algie Williams of the West 135th street station probably

risked his life in the sensational capture and disarming of Keller at 161st street and Edgecombe avenue Thursday afternoon while the vicinity was crowded with school children coming out of P. S. 5.
Keller took the witness stand and told the court that in company with two men, named Newton and Carter, both of 155 West 180th street, they planned to hold up and rob an alleged speakeasy at 59 St. Nicholas place, near 183d street.
They entered the place Thursday afternoon, he said, and held up the bartender, Horace Burton, 109 West 139th street. Keller admitted pointing a 38 caliber police special at Burton and taking $24 cash from his pockets, while one of his bandit companions riffed the cash register of $40 cash, and escaped in two waiting taxicabs.
Burton testified that he trailed one of the cabs to 141st street and Edgecombe avenue, "where I hailed Patrolman Williams," said Burton. "One of the men jumped out and emsped, but Keller was not able to get away."

An Empty Honor, Says J. H. Howard
WASHINGTON, D. C, April 1.—(By J. H: Howard-for.ANP)
—As far back as May 28, 1917, Hon. L, C. Dyer, Congressman
from St. Louis, Missouri, introduced a bill for the erection at
Washington, D. C., of a monument or memorial as a tribute to the
Negro’s contribution to the achievements of America. This bill
was referred to the Committce on Public Buildings and Grounds,

fered m similar Bill to that offered
by Mr. Dyer in 1917. This bill was
referred this time to the Comimittes

mittee, A public hearing was held

Shaw Plans Memorial to
Workers in Africa
RALEIGH, N. C, April 1—The
Alumnt Association of Shaw Univer-
sity hos under consideration the
erection of a sultable stone gateway
and arch to the entrance of the
campus, which will be a memorial to
the many Shaw men and women who
have labored for the enlightenment
of Africa,
Among the two most outstanding
who served Africa most zealously in
their day were: the Rev. J. O. Hayes
of Liberia, and Dr. Fleming, a grad-
uate of Estey, who gave her life in
the Congo. Among the Shaw grad-
uates in Africa today are Rev. and
Mrs, W. H. Thomas of Liberia, Dr.
©. G, Boone of the Congo, and ‘Max
Yergan of the Union of South Afrl-
ca, Nearly 8 score of Shaw alumni
have done service in Africa.
Shaw lays claim to having sent
more workers to Africa since its
foundation than any other Negro in-
stitution of learning. The late King
Leopold wrote @ personal letter to
Senry Martin Tupper, founder of
Shaw University, urging that capa-
ble Shaw men and women be sent tc

with Livingstone’s precious diary for
the preceding six years. ‘The diary
“contained a wealth of information
about countries and peoples hitherto
unexplored and unknown.”
Livingstone remained in the tate-
rior of Africa and died May 1, 1873,
at Chitambo. His heart was buried
by his native attendsts at Chitam-
bo and his body, embaimed as best
they could, was carried nearly a
year’s journey to the coast at Zanz\~
bar. It reached England April 15,
1874.
‘The London Missionary Society, an
agency of the Congregational
churches in Great Britain. first sent
Livingstone to Africa in 180, He
originally vet out solely to discover
fields for miston work, but later his
explorations were directed to combat
the atrocities of the slave traffic
through opening up the country to
legitimate and productive commerce.
In 1866 he accepted a commission
from the Royal Geographical Soclety
to ascertain the watershed of south-
central Africa and to locate the
sources of the Nile, But when urged
to relinquish his missionary work
and attend only to discovery, he
wrote: “I would not consent to go
simply as a geographer, but as a mis-
slonary and to do geography by the
way.” Regarding the number and
accuracy of his astronomical and
geographical observations, it was
sald: “You can go to any point
across the entire continent along
Livingstone’s track and feel certain
of your position.”
A dauntiess spirit made Living-
stone known as “the man who would
go on.” Once, when rounding a
river's course in an unknown region,
he came suddenly upon a great
force of armed savages, Arrows sped
over his canoe.
“Go back!’ shouted the chief. But
Livingstone slipped into the water
and, with his arms above his head,
walked quictly and deliberately to-
ward the threatening warriors. His
audacity and courage held "them
epellbound and he was permitted tc
go on.

Much Interest Centers Around Game Between Celtics and Renaissance Friday
Furey to Again Start Drive Against Douglas Outfit in Grand Rush to Decide Supremacy Between the Teams
MUCH BETTING ON COMING CLASH
Teams Will Meet in Return Game at Manhattan Casino Tuesday Night, April 9, With Hundreds of Whites to
The Renaissance Five will take the floor 8 to 5 favorite over the reorganized Celtics when they clash at the Seventy-first Regiment Armory Friday evening, April 5. This will be the first of a series of post season games to decide the world professional basketball championship. Not many may know it, but tons of the coin of the realm change hands in basketball the same as in boxing, hockey and baseball.
It is a matter of record that the Renaissance combination, which is composed of crack Negro players, has accomplished wonders in 96 victories in 107 engagements. Only two Sunday nights ago they turned back the Rochester Centrals of the American League. Since starters playing back in 1023 they have participated in the game of the Celtics, informs a palpitating public that the teams will draw a packed house. He has received upward of 1,500 orders for choice seats. Incidentally, a side bet of $2,500 will encourage the boys to fight it out tooth and nail every inch of the way. Manager Jim Burey of the Shamrock rock out wants $1,000 of the 8 to 5 odds from Bob Douglas, who guides the destinies of the Harlem quintet.
EIGHT
Celtics Practice All Week.
Nat Holman, who will captain the Celtics, has ordered a hard court. While the Celtics are training, the Renaissance boys will play a couple of games to keep on edge.
The makeup of the Renaissance team is Hunter Silcum, Eyre Salch; clearance; Clarence (Fat) Jenkins, guard; Walter Sanders, center; Paddy Ricks, forward and Harold Mayers, guard. A year ago they beat the Celtics in the first round. Holman is on the Celtics. He can throw a basketball with the speed of an ordinary baseball. Mayers has the coveted distinction of having held Johnny Backman to a game. He is named "Dead-Eye Ricks." He is known to be the greatest shot in basketball today. His scoring average is 15.5 points per game in a total of 204 games.
Missions Coming Back.
So many fans believed that the Renaissance could not be beaten on the old home court, Harlem is all agog over the game at the Renaissance Casino last Sunday night and the Celtics are ready to best thing to do to bring back the crack Visitation team from Brooklyn.
Defeating the Brooklynites on their own home court last Sunday night, though, repeated the dose in Harlem, but the Brooklyn players simply reversed matters and now Bob is bringing them back in an attempt to wipe out the defeat of last week end. The hot man in which Renaissance is playing against the end of the season approaches has set the fans on edge.
Amateurs in Fine Bouts At Flatbush Boys' Club
Charles Christianson, Danish A. C. welterweight, scored two impressive knockouts last Friday night in the 147-pound class of the Flatbush Boys' Club amateur boxing show at Klismet Temple. Christianson stopped the fight after all four seconds. Joe Briggs, unattached, won the other semi-final by flattening Ralph Florio, unattached, in 37 seconds, and in the final Christianson won by a technical knockout in 30 seconds of the second round. Briggs took three trips to the canvas in the first period two for nine and three for seven, each time and staggered his rugged opponent with hard left hooks. The second round had not gone very far when Briggs dropped to the resin again for an eight count. A hard right-cross sent him down each time. He was then cornered him to his knees in a corner and the referee called a halt.
Lee Coward, Y. M. C. A. Battier, captured the honors in the 160-pound division by defeating Sol Berg, unattached by defeating Charles Villanuea, the decision over Charles Villanuea of the Ozaman A.

CELTICS AND RENS IN ARMORY CLASH FRIDAY Gans Stopped Wagner at Olympia Saturday
BY FRANCIS.
THE news that the Ideal Tennis Club is preparing to brilliant "come-back" after a year-off of two years from the delightful pastime, has been received in every quarter with general satisfaction.
The event seems to be the chief topic of discussion just as the Tennis players seem to be passing the word. It is, therefore, fitting that we stroll together down the avenues of time and memory.
As the mind flits from some point of interest to closely related, many are the pleasant remembrances which pass in review before us. Foremost among these, perhaps, is that brilliant spectacle which took place on the Ideal Tennis Courts in 1838 street Tally Holmes of Washington, D. C., and B. M. Clarke of Jamaica, D. B. I.
The event possessed an international flavor. It was a beautiful afternoon in the city, and the occasion was the New York State Tennis Championship Tournament.
Tally, in those days, was the unquestioned ruler of Negro tennis in America. Being singles and doubles, he was the most skilled and lovers of the sport everywhere. His gentlemanly bearing, his calm and even disposition during the progress of an important match, even when deceived, was a lot of a lot, won for him a host of friends.
B. M. Clarke, in striking contrast, was practically unknown. His ability on the court could now be determined in a timely fashion in a few days previous. Some say that he was imported by the Manhattan Tennis Club to wrest the laurel at the tennis court. But what does that matter? We have occasion to re沾 in the fact that he came, and that his coming was a tremendous boost to tennis. Few have been more filled with drama or more worthy of being recorded than that which took place on this memorable afternoon. Clarke, a young man of slight build, played tennis well and was established the fact that he came here as a tennis player, and not as an orator—for he seldom spoke. These adjectives noted as the attractive blazer he wore when not in actual competition, soon endangered him to everyone with whom he came in contact. They recognized him as quite unwilling to be fussy or showy.
At length the gladiators took the court. The silence which followed was a thing of beauty, and spoke more loudly and with greater feeling than anything everyone present, all at once, could have said or done. After a few minutes of silence, the court was again taken. Tally won the first set with apparent ease. Clarke won the second after fast and brilliant play by both men. Tally took the third, making the score two sets to one in his favor. The customary rest then ensued. This period found the large gallery decidedly on edge. No one seemed able to remain in his seat. The courts were suddenly filled with fanciful and fancifully-it seemed. Men and women who had come from far-off Chicago and other distant States for the tournament, as was their custom, recognized in the crowd others from Washington, Virginia, or what have you, and made a bee-line to their side to exchange greetings and discuss the match. Visiting the hall, which was the first of the everyone sought his friend to solicit his opinion of the new-come. Few thought that Clarke had a chance with the Washington school teacher. Many thought that he was, Indeed, overwhelmingly defeated as a result of the first three sets, and that the match was in the bag for the native American.
"You will, I think," the crowded crowd returned. "I am not a gratuitary remarks for his fine showing against Tally the Terrible. Clarke, however, seemed quite sure that Tally was not so terrible, for, as though sensing the irony in their speech, he expressed his mind in unmistakable terms. Without the least suggestion of the court, the next set of the sets and the match." He did, and a new single champion was crowned.
Who that was present shall ever forget the wild scene that followed the conclusion of the match? Men, women and children in evident happiness, as if it mattered to them who won or lost, but, rather, that it was their good fortune to be present on such a day. Perhaps they do not rejoice at the defeat of their old friend, at the coming of a greater than he. Five gruelling suits seemed to have sapped all the energy and stamina Tally possessed, for he fell in a faint immediately following the match, and the next day he was a very sick man. Was it the pang of defeat and the suggestion of the passing of a champion that caused his temporary illness? Who can answer? He, Mr. McKinney, the splendid athlete he was, showed.

FIELDS TOO MUCH FOR THOMPSON
CHICAGO (A. N. P.)—Fighting before a crowd of some 9,000 fans at the 2014 N.Y.C. championship, California, welterweight, was decisively defeated by Jackie Fields, Chicago Hebrew, here Monica Williams, much heralded championship fight.
The fight was won in the first round, when Fields, adopting Thompson's own style of fighting, landed rights and left on Jack's head, and in the group, the terrific beating in the first round. Thompson apparently found himself in the latter rounds of the fight and at one stage of the bout seemed to be winning, but the opponent for the count, but Fields gameness and condition came to his rescue and he emerged from the round strong. The decision was unanimous as fights hinged and the crowd was concerned. Even the strongest Thompson adherents agreed that Fields had earned the decision. His aggressiveness, cleverness, and fighting heart proved to be too much or too little, and the verdict received the applause of the vast number of spectators.
In the eight round a much deplored stumpede occurred which marred the battle. Just what hapened? The stumpede declared that a fight between a colored and white patron caused the panic, and others say that the rolling smoke from flash-light pictures caused some of the excited fans to think the stumpede was alive. Ever the cause was, the fight was interrupted for a few minutes by the stumpede during which many patrons were injured. Acting upon the assumption that an inter-racial fight had caused the dislodge of Sapporo P. P. Italian member of the Boxing Commission, and a Thompson appointee, announced that he would introduce a resolution barring mixed bouts. The consensus of opinion is that Mr. Thompson was the Italian member of the resolution, due to the part that Negroes played in legalizing boxing in the State of Illinois, the popularity of mixed bouts in this city, and the influence of the famous Hale Hale of Luzzo, who is alleged to be responsible for Luzzo's position on the commission.
of fatigue nor undue elation over his victory. He was carried from the court and tumultuous applause.

WARM-UP FOR COLLEGIANS Philadelphia Team No Match for Crack New! York Quint
(By Francis.)
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—The New York Collegegians invaded this town last Saturday night with a bus load, and decisively trounced the Briscoe Club by the score of 39 to 19.
The game was played at the Palais Royal, home of the famous Sphas of Philadelphia.
The Briscoe quintet had been going good, and were expected to give the New York team a fight, but the game was nothing more than a warm-up for the Collegegians.
The Philadelphia fans, however, were treated to a first class exhibition of passing and teamwork by the Collegegians in a flawless style and completely outclassed their Philadelphia cousins.
Only a few hundred fans turned out witness the fray, but though deceived of the team win, nevertheless cheered the brilliant playing of the Collegegians.
Referees Miller and Loomis both
officiated in an excellent manner,
and a remarkably clean game was
the result. At half time the score
was 19 to 10 in the New Yorkers' favor.
The score:
COLLEGIANS.

Stopped Eddie (Kid)) Wagner at the Olympia Last Saturday Night
LEE TO MEET ROS
New Talent Show the Coming Saturday Night One of the Best Yet
Before a crowded house at the Olympia Sport Club last Saturday night Baby Joe Gans uncovered his wares with so much success the fans for the first time since they have been seeing Eddie (Kid) Wagner of Philadelphia witnessed the Philadelphia mounting his sturdy bicycle and back, side and front pedding in a manner that is doubt of the superiority of Baby Joe.
The light had hardly got started when Gans uncorked one of his famous pencils if it was poached. The Philadelphia man was to get to his feet but fell back to the canvas and heard the welcome sound of the bell a few seconds later and pinched. It took heroic measures on the part of his seconds to get him ready for the second round, and this was but a repetition of the first, when he took the right hand him and sent him to the canvas. Waking up to the danger of the right, Wagner did everything in his power to avoid it and succeeded in getting the ball out. That he had a mighty good left and it was only a matter of time when the end would come. Wagner was taking the beating and the referee was taking the ball in the sixth when he stopped the bout.
Next Saturday night canada Lee will top the card against Alfred Roy. The referee will take the ball in the sixth when he stopped the bout.

RENS SPLIT WITH THE VISITATIONS
Order Reversed When the Brookdynites Took Game From Rens in Harlem
After suffering an extra period defeat in their court at Prospect Hall last Sunday night the Visitation Triangles traveled to Harlem and won from Renaissance, 56 to 41. The Renaissance victory was by a 54 to 48 score. In view of the fact that Hakawen won three out of five from Renaissance it is apparent the basketball supremacy of the city rests with the American team. Visitation outplayed the colored champions by a wide margin on the Renaissance floor. The halftime count was 31 to 22. The Brooklyn outfit made a number of fancy plays. Coney. Scrill and Brennan contributed three-point plays. Pat Herlith, Visitation center, who appeared a bit lethargic in the Prospect Hall contest, was refreshed by the nocturnal ozone on the ride from Brooklyn to Harlem and outscored his man by a wide margin. The local players, as well as a scoring team, were scored by "Pappy" Rikks, played the Triangles on even terms through most of the Prospect Hall game and then flashed ahead in the extra period.
It was the Visitation team's final showing of the season before their home fans and they were out to win. The brand of basketball displayed by the Triangles would have won nine out of ten basketball games, but this was the tenth, and the Renissance outfit was first under the wire.
In the first half the dusky basket team faced Harding, who was keeping two of every three shots they let fly at the basket. They were keeping after the ball and had the fans in uproar.
Conaty High Scorer.
John "Red" Conaty, who was high man for Visitation, opened the scoring with a long shot. Jenkins gave the fans notice what to expect when he let fly a side shot or or the infield team faced the tallly. For a time basket came in about even measure with the score tied most of the time.
The Triangles were getting away for baskets only to have the Renaissance even things up again. A rally just before the intermission, in which Brennan and Conaty figured, gave the Triangles a 24 to 22 halftime lead.
The score was tied four times in the second period. Two baskets by Ricks turned the trick the first time. With a half minute to go Jenkins scored for the visitors, tying the tally at 46 all and sending the game into extra time.
In the extra period Brennan caged the ball from half way down the court to the best of the basket gathering. Was done by the invaders. Jenkins, Cooper and Stich had the baskets that were the downfall of the Triangles. The scores:

CARLTON DEFEATS THE RED WINGS
Saturday night, March 30r the Carlton Young Men's Junior team defeated the Red Wings on their home court to the tune of 18 to 14. The game was very hotly contested from the very beginning. Defensive tactics on part of Carlton held the Red Wings to three lone points during the first half. Things were speeded up a bit during the second half, when the Red Wings attempted to come out from behind by running their score up to 14 points. The well-balanced floor work Robinson, Wallace, LaBarne, Collins and Windsor proved to be just a little bit more than the Red Wings could handle. Wallace and Collins were high scorers for Carlton, scoring 6 and 5 points respectively. Teamoh was high scorer for Red Wings, scoring 4 points.

THE hitting of George Scales and Grey Rector, Thomas and Holland and Gray and Hudspeth in the game at Jimmie Keenan's Lincoln Giants to tons, the strongest local team in Great their first game of the season, feature ball game interesting. From the liminary practice until the game aggregation was busy doing something season's struggle that may bring the League to the City of New York. Medicine ball and other athletic cuusthling Lincoln prior to starting it were present immensely.
Nip Winters pitched two innings that faced him. Rector was on the Holland two. Spearman and Gee were great pair of backstoppers, with snail coins have a dashing third baseman in shortstop in young Yancey, who has but experience. Washington, Gray are be good enough for any team in the (High Pocket) (long and high), at handle last Sunday. When it comes this, the boy, High Pocket, is his slender proportion, he has an effect give many close decisions to the Lens second base the Lincoln will have to take a second look to find out whether is a wonderful hitter and thrower, a tempered boy, who, heretofore has words of the man who pays him, his for the last two years; if he con on of the greatest ever.
After all is said, the fans of No big fact, and that is Owner Jimmie been idle during the winter months baseball situation and their main concern the co-operation and the loyalty of the timer, says he not only wants the pet to own the greatest colored team of a building and will keep on until he gets in the position of Jimmie, that kind.
Next Sunday Danny McClellan, in the attraction at Protectory Oval. Q. players who have not reported to the season will be in the lineup against choosing players for this game. He the foxy John Henry, so that he can mate the laugh.
THE hitting of Georgie Scales and Charley Smith, the pitching of Winters, Rector, Thomas and Holland and the superb fielding of young Yancey, Gray and Hudspeth in the game at Protectory Oval last Sunday, enabled Jimmie Keenan's Lincoln Giants to score an easy victory over the Carltons, the strongest local team in Greater New York. The Lincolnis, playing their first game of the season, featured in all the ingredients that make a ball game interesting. From the time they hit the field for their preliminary practice until the game-ended, every player of Honus Lloyd's aggregation was busy doing something to further their condition for the season's struggle that may bring the championship of the Negro American League to the City of New York. Dashing around the field, throwing the medicine ball and other athletic customs were put on exhibition by the hustling Lincolnis prior to starting of game. It pleased the people who were present immensely.
Nip Winters pitched two innings and fanned five of the first six men that faced him. Rector was on the slab for three rounds, Thomas two and Holland two. Spearman and Gee worked behind the plate. They are a great pair of backstoppers, with snappy arms and level heads. The Lincoln have a dashing third baseman in the person of Riggins, and a coming shortstop in young Yancey, who has everything a ball player should have but experience. Washington, Gray and Smith make an outfield that would be good enough for any team in the Negro American League. Mr. Hudspeth (High Pocket) (long and high), at first base, played the game up to the handle last Sunday. When it comes to the physical makeup of an initial sacker, this boy, High Pocket, is perfection. Over six feet in height, of slender proportion, he has an effective reach on thrown balls that should give many close decisions to the Lincoln's credit during the season. At second base the Lincoln will have George Scales. You will not have to take a second look to find out whether he is a ball player or not. Scales is a wonderful hitter and thrower, a heady ball player, but he is a chameleon tempered boy, who, heretofore has placed no value on his smile. In the words of the man who pays him, George has been fighting that temper of his for the last two years; if he conquers it, the fans will claim him as on of the greatest ever.
After all is said, the fans of New York can be assured of one great big fact, and that is Owner Jimmie Keenan and Manager Lloyd have not been idle during the winter months. They have kept in touch with the baseball situation and their main concern from now on will be to maintain the co-operation and the loyalty of the players. Mr. Keenan, himself an old-timer, says he not only wants the pennant of the new league, but he wants to own the greatest colored team of all times. With that end in view he is building and will keep on until he get what he's after. Coming from a man in the position of Jimmie, that kind of talk sounds good to me.
Next Sunday Danny McClellan, with an all star league team, will be the attraction at Protectory Oval. Quite a few of Negro American League players who have not reported to their respective teams for the coming season will be in the lineup against the Lincolnns. McClellan is carefully choosing players for this game. He would like to put both games over on the foxy John Henry, so that he can give his old Philadelphia Giants' team-mate the laugh.

The diamond aspirants are busily engaged under Coach Walls preparing for the annual Southern trip which will carry the Lions well into North Carolina territory. A large number of veterans are out to retain their births and a host of newcomers, styled rookies, are on the scene putting forth every effort to be among that number which will trek South real soon.

In the spring of 1927 he established a new record for the 220-yard dash. Time was 21 seconds and has never been broken. Although it is only recognized in the Stage Dispatch with the best scholastic time in the Eastern United States. He was sectional holder of the 100 yard dash in his last season at the academy with a time of 10 seconds flat.
has succeeded in bringing together two of the best colored heavyweight championship contenders in the world. No one boy, famous "California Thunderbolt," and "Bear Cat" Wright meet there,
This is the bout the Olympic angled for sometime back and there was talk at the time of making it an out-door show. Bearcat is almost as big as Godfrey, weighing around 230. Neal only strips at 195, but makes up for it in speed, cleverness, craftiness and skill. Bearcat, a giant killer, carries in his right hand. The two have met before and Bearcat holds a win over Neal that he is determined to wipe out when they meet Thursday.
The importance of the bout lies in the fact that it is considered as a match for the colored heavy championship of the West, which Neal now holds, and also because the company has joined Fugue in New York. It is promised that colored heavies will get their chance in the eliminations for Tunney's vacated title. A great supporting card is being staged.
SAINTS WIN TWO
Monday evening, March 25, the St. Jude's "Saints" had little trouble in defeating the Abyssinian Varsity Five by a score of 42 to 27 on the court of Abyssinian Baptist Church.
On Wednesday evening, March 27, the Saints played the Langston Five on the court of F. S. 99 and defeated college opponents on the final score 32 to 29. The winning of these two games brings the total of straight victories up to twelve for St. Jude.

Fans Fill Lincoln Giants' Park at Opening Game
NEW YORK, N. Y.—A clear Easter day and a good baseball game were the attractions that drew the largest opening crowd to Protectory Oval last Sunday in the history of that park. The opening of the Lincoln Giants' 1928 son, and they got off at a good start by defeating the Carlitos 5 to 1 in a game that was more exciting than the score would indicate. Only a score of 60-50 Gray at centerfield prevented the visitors from making two more runs in the last inning.
For the first time in more than 20 years, Manager John Henry Lloyd did not play with his team at the opening game. With Bill Yancy at shortshort, Scales at second and Hudspeth at first, he plans to manage his team mostly from the bench this season.
Addition to Gray's catch, the game was featured by the batting of George Scales, who made three two-base hits and Charlie Smith, formerly of the Royal Giants, who made a single and a bagger.
Frank Forbes, well known to basketball fans as "Strangler," was the chief umpire of the contest and his services were so satisfactory that James J. Keenan and Manager Lloyd plan to use him a great deal at Protectory Oval this season.
Next Sunday Oliver Marcell will bring an all-star team of League players to the Protectory for a double header.

PETERSBURG, Va., March 29—Trailing the fighting Bisons gone into the fourth inning by a 10 to 4 score, State's 1929 diamond aggregation began to hit on all nine and in the remaining five innings scored 16 runs while Howard was held scoreless. It was a typical early season win with teams making more than their share of the crowd was given all kinds of baseball to keep them on edge throughout the entire fray.
Howard started off with a rush, taking advantage of several miscues by State and hitting the "old apple" like leaguers. It really looked as the '28 champs were in for a good beating. Hull pitching for Howard had the "Hilltoppers" eating out of his hands the last of the fourth. Here State, who played Captain Corprew doubled to left field and was scored by a clean single by Powell. In all, three runs were scored in this frame and State's rooters took on life. From there on, with Brown mowing down the Bison's in regular fashion, State steadily crept up, to finally pass the D. C. aggregation and turn in their first victory of the season.
Corprew and Powell led the hitting parade for State, while for the visitors, Mask and Harris were always dangerous. The veteran Brown took innings of scoreless ball and showed much improved form over last year.

Up-State University Bows to Prejudice
SYRACUSE BOWS TO PREJUDICE
Sky Pilot at the Same Time Prays for True Sports-
SYRACUSE, N. Y., March 27. Syracuse University has joined the growing list of northern institutions who step aside in order that the pride of Southern gentlemen might not be belittled by becoming too closely associated with Negroes. Upon the protest of Georgetown University, Western Maryland, and the Navy, Ted Graham, a member of Syracuse's famed relay teams, was hurred from participation in the intercollegiate boxing championships in the 145 lb. class. Syracuse had hopes of gaining three intercollegiate titles. The negro lad, whose track speed has brought glory to Syracuse during the past winter, is an aggressive and elusive boxer who is far ahead of most men in his division. Few intercollegiate boxers possess his skill, stamina and versatile pumpher power and there is very little doubt that he would have been at the head of his division had he been given a square deal.
The irony of the situation was shown in that a few moments before Dr. MacKenzie, the famed sculptor of the University of Pennsylvania, opened the tourney by asking the blessing of God and good sportsman- ship to prevail throughout the meet.

Collegians and Buffaloes To Meet Saturday Night
Under the auspices of the popular Debonair Club, the Collegians and Buffaloes, New York City's leading amateur basketball teams, will meet for the big city championship on Saturday evening, April 6, at Renaissance Casino.
The Debonair Club, brain child of Mrs. Toteilr D'Agulon, who has very successfully entertained her patrons the past, will present a beautiful silver shivering team symbolic of the championship.
The Bluebirds and Dauntless, leading girls' teams, will play in a preliminary for the female championship. In their last start on Sunday night at the Renaissance Casino the Buffaloes again came out in the lead.
ZORILLA FAVORITE TO WIN FROM MORGAN
LOS ANGELES, Calif. Apr. 1 Gly A. N. P.)—With the betting fraternity laying down more cash than usual, odds have grown heavy on Santiago Zorilla, the little brown demon from Panama, to win the junior lightweight championship from Tod Morgan Tuesday night at the Olympic Auditorium. Wirt Ross, manager and discoverer of Zorilla, took the match without a dime in sight until the figures pass Morgan's guarantee and considerably over the $15,000 promised him.
CARLTON 50, KAPPA 22
On Saturday, March 30, the Kappa team journeyed to Carlton and received a good trouncing. The team work of Carlton Y. M. D. was far superior and proved to be more than Kappa could withstand. The first few minutes were seemingly slow, but when the Carlton combination began working things looked pretty bad for Kappa. Carlton ran up a score of 22-6 during the first half. The last half was equally as fast as the first half. Carlton continued to pass and outshoot the New York combination. Herdron scoring 14 points and McClammy 13 points, were the high scorers for Carlton, while Work was high scorer for Kappa, scoring 8 points.

Negro Trying to Find Himself in Commerce
That the Negro is making a serious and intelligent effort to find his place in the commercial life of the nation is disclosed by the number of mercantile, professional and research organizations listed in the Domestic Commerce Division of the United States Department of Commerce, where the publicity and promotion section has been making a tabulation of such information with the small business unit charged with assembling the data. The undertakers are the most completely organized set of business of the Negro race, having local, state and tristate offices closely identified with national association. The least degree of organization seems to prevail in the strictly mercantile lines, yet this is the largest field with more than 40,000 re-retailers.
The national organizations listed are: Negro Bankers' Association, Beauty Culturists' League, Builders' and Contractors' Association, Engineers', Architects and Chemists' Association, Independent Funeral Directors' Association, Negro Business League, Negro Life Insurance Association, Negro Medical Association, Negro Press Association, Association of Negro Tailors, Dressmakers and Designers, Theatre Owners' Association (mixed membership), National Urban League (a research organization), United States National Automobile Club.
Kroger Chain Stores
Employs Negro Clerks
DETROIT, April 1 (By The Associated Negro Press).—The West Side Improvement Association, an organization that looks out for the welfare and seeks ever to improve the conditions of the group here in every phase of its endeavor, has succeeded in placing two Negroes as clerks in one of the Kroger chain stores here. This achievement has been cesseless in its efforts to have a Negro placed as "manager" in this particular store, which is in a decided colored neighborhood, where 90 per cent of the trade of this store is, of course, colored. "While we did not succeed in getting the place as manager," said William D McDaniel, president of the association, as soon as the full-time clerk becomes acquainted with the system of Kroger store management, have him elevated to that position."

EDITORIAL FROM "THE NEWS," AUGUSTA, GA.
Among the many things that have kept the Negro from enjoying the many blessings of real freedom is his inability to realize the influences which have been directing his mind in various ways for hundreds of years. We have been taught to look upon white as an emblem of purity and that all goodness must come from some white source.
The pictures in our Bibles and religious literature are all white; for that cause I believe they are fictitious and misleading, and have done more harm than good.
I believe there is something wrong with our religious teaching. We teach that all of God's messengers or angels are white. Some people believe the soul is white. If it were white, it would be visible to the eye. We cannot conceive the idea that angels are of any color. Some songs we sing, with such phrases as "Now wash mary and shall wash her," "Now wash the writer, then the writer has taken white as an emblem of purity. One of the most deadly poisons we have, which is strychnine, is white. White is not, and never has been, a

standard of purity. When the Negro accepts such teachings he enslaves himself into the belief that all goodness comes from some white source. It is often that we walk along the street and point with pride upon the signboard at old Santa Claus, a big, good old white man, who has always been kind and kind and kind (which is false teaching, of course). But the child has never seen a big, black Santa Claus, therefore he comes to the conclusion that all good things must come from some white source. The girl who is taught to love a white doll, when she is grown and becomes a mother will not be proud of children of her own likeness. The lesson taught has been too bitter. Every picture on our walls tells its story and makes some kind of impression on the mind; therefore we should select only those which would be helpful, and avoid all those which teach the lessons of humiliation.
The Negro has accepted false teaching long enough. How long will he be the victim of the intrigue that has made him believe that he was inferior to any people? It is now time for us to realize the fact that we must set a new standard of teaching. We must be able to teach race pride and Programs L.

Once Sentenced to Die; Now Acquitted by Jury
DAYTON, Ohio, April 1—Roy Freeman, convicted of first degree murder in a first trial and sentenced to death for shooting a Dayton, Ohio, motorcycle police officer, has been acquitted in a second trial and is free as a result of the determined fight made by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
The shooting for which Freeman was tried occurred Sept. 18, 1927, when, having parked his automobile on a Dayton street, he was approached by William C. Horn, motorcycle police officer. Horn made Freeman step out of his car and walk over to the motorcycle. Freeman voluntarily handing over a revolver he had. A struggle then developed in which Freeman was hit by a bullet from his own revolver in the police officer's hand, a second bullet hitting the police officer under the heart. Freeman ran and the gun found in the officer's hand was emptied at him.
Freeman testified that the officer had threatened to shoot him and that he grasped his own pistol in the officer's hands to protect himself from injury.

Howard Teachers
Get $80,000 Increase
WASHINGTON, April 1.—Members of the college faculty at Howard University received increases in salary today made possible by a gift of $1 million from General Education Board of New York. The raise is a result of an effort by President Mordecal W. Johnson since the beginning of his administration to secure adequate salaries for his faculty. While the average does not give the problem of inadequate pay, it provides substantial relief in many instances. In the distribution of the fund, consideration is given to longevity and meritorious service of teachers.

Dr. Jacobs, "despite the fact that there are no specific 'cures' for it in the world," continue. The treatment is very simple, consists of rest, regulated diet, and plenty of fresh air.

Stenography as a Career for Young Men
By I. NEWTON BRAITHWAITE
THERE has been a great deed who are taking up stenogr there exists at the present raphers. This situation may be has come to be commonly—the calling for women and girls on
THERE has been a great decline in the number of young men who are taking up stenography as a career; so much so that there exists at the present almost a dearth of male stenographers. This situation may be due to the fact that stenography has come to be commonly—though erroneously—regarded as a calling for women and girls only.
The title "Stenographer" is usually associated with some young, attractive female, this association not being difficult to explain. It is, perhaps, only one of the many aftermaths of the World War. During that emergency period young men were drawn from all walks of life into the service of the country; women were installed into the positions these men formerly held.
In the period of readjustment that followed the war there was a gradual return to normalcy, and in most industries the young men, as they were mistreated out of the service, were restored to their former berths.
worally with the incomes derived from many of the other professions. The official salaries paid to court stenographers (under Civil Service regulations) in New York City, State and County Courts will furnished an accurate idea of the emoluments gained from the shorthand-writing profession. The minimum salary of court stenographers in the Municipal and Magistrates' Courts in New York City is $2,574 per annum, which salaries is greatly augmented by extra fees transcripts of minutes, thus bringing their averages up to $3,500 and over per annum. The minimum salary paid to court stenographers in the Su-
In the case of stenographers, however, many of them drifted into other fields, some by choice and others of necessity, in the latter case economic reasons being the cause. Employers found that they could accustom themselves to the female stenographer; especially so, since she was available at lower wage than the male. The result was that men were retained in their jobs, and the public, accustomed to seeing female stenographers, apprehended that stenographic position is for a woman. Contrary to that opinion, however, there is and always will be a need for the male stenographer. There is a difference of opinion as to whether women make as good stenographers as men. I am willing to concede that, as amanuances or office stenographers and girls have been able to measure, to standard with men; but as secretaries and expert shorthand writers or reporters, women have so far not been able to cope with men.
What of the shorthand reporting profession? Unless young men continue to follow up the study of shorthand reporting profession, the shorthand reporting profession, the time will inevitably come when this branch of the calling will suffer and that class of work which demands the skill of the expert shorthand writer must either be left undone or else be consigned to incompetent hands.
There is a certain type of stenographic work for which women are wholly unfit, temperamentally and physically. They have not the physical energy and endurance exacted of the stenographer in the courts, where lengthy and unbroken sessions are the rule and not the exception. They cannot endure the strenuous sessions of legislative bodies, like Congress and the Senate and the various committees that necessarily function with them. It follows therefore, that they must be trained for the job of men to handle work of that character, and it is time that young men realized the need of their services in the stenographic field and the wonderful opportunities for profitable service which it offers them. It may not be generally known that shorthand reporters earn comfortable incomes that compare fa-

The minimum salary of court stenographers in the Municipal and Magistrates' Courts in New York City is $2,574 per annum, which salary is greatly augmented by extra fees obtained from transcripts of minutes, thus bringing their average earnings up to $3,500 and over per annum. The minimum salary paid to court stenographers in the Sussex Courts of New York State is $2,400 per annum, which when added to the fees obtained from transcripts of minutes, gives them an average yearly income of $7,500 and over.
The average earnings of the free lance shorthand reporter cannot be estimated with the same degree of accuracy, but it is safe to approximate income of free lance shorthand reporters who have a good, steady clientele at $5,000 a year and upwards.
The importance of the shorthand-writing profession has been recognized by several of the leading educational institutions in the country to the extent that they have sanctioned the inauguration of a four-year college course in shorthand leading to a degree. It is only a matter of time when such a course will be included in the curriculum of Columbia, New York, Boston, Northwestern and other reputable universities. The University of the State of New York also places shorthand in the category of professions and awards the certified shorthand required by the course. The able to pass the rigorous test under its auspices, after the candidates have satisfactorily met the educational requirements prescribed by the Regents of the university.
The need of Negro male stenographers is especially pronounced. The number of Negro men in New York City who are qualified to be rated as a stenographer and auditor is so few that you can count the number on the fingers of one hand; and there are no evidences to indicate that in the future there will be any to take the places of the few who are now in the field. At the present rate, the time will come when the Negro is required to take the place of the memory. It cannot be said that there are no opportunities for them, because all who are now available are employed either as court stenographers or in some position that is commensurate with their ability. Given the necessary qualifications, even chance w.h his white competitor to work his way into the court stenographer's chair, under Civil Service regulations.

Estate of Over $10,000

Y. M. C. A. Drive On for $3,276,787
Carlton Branch to Receive $46,932 to Carry on Work
The management of the Carlton avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A. has made many friends for the past ten years. The construction building was acquired in 1919, just ten years ago. Some members of the board—Messrs. N. D. Johnson, Elias Tilghman, F. H. Gilbert, E. J. Jackson, and by the work since it was started in 1902 and have served continuously as board members for twenty-six years. Other strong men have been added from time to time by the work in the service to the community. It has kept pace with the increasing colored population of Brooklyn, which has mounted from 27,000 in 1918 to more than 30,000 in its needs of this increase. The membership of both boys and men has increased proportionately and the program carefully prepared and conducted has been changed to meet the needs of this increase. The staff of workers has grown from two full-time secretaries in 1919 to five in 1929. Other employees have been added to meet the growing needs of the building is kept clean and attractive.
Much needed service has been rendered to numerous clubs and societies having no regular meeting place. They are regularly weekly service in the building. Young men are sought for the dormitory whose incomes make it impossible for them to pay elsewhere similar to those offered at the "Y."
On account of hundreds of boys being released from school the summer program is intensive in the summer period of last year more than 10,000 individual swims were enjoyed in the "Y" pool. Scores of boys unable to pay membership fees are also encouraged to participate. More fortunate boys, whose parents are in position to give them a vacation at Camp Carlton, the 123-acre tract of land and buildings owned by the camp, to summer camp, are placed under the care of a competent director and a corp of leaders for nine weeks. As many as 216 boys have attended Camp Carlton in a single summer camp. The summer branch co-operates with a Student Summer Service Group of the Inter-Collegiate Branch in maintaining a student for study of life in New York. The students overcrowded elements of all racial types. Members of the staff are encouraged to attend each summer the Eastern Association School at Silver Lake. Students goGeorge Washington in elementary education technique.
As is the case with all social work organizations, the Brooklyn association has to look occasionally to the public for assistance in its expansion and to work. No great city-wide campaign has been held for the Brooklyn Y. M. G. A. since the Jubilee Campaign Fund in 1902, and the Board of Management has been sufficient to hold a city-wide effort to secure sufficient funds to provide 10 new buildings as well as to take care of a portion of building indebtedness on the several branches including the City Hall. If the campaign goes over big, and there is every reason to believe that it will, the Carlton Avenue Branch will be freed from interest charges and amounting to nearly $2,500 annually.
The present officers of the branch are: Dr. Jesse E. Moorland, chairman of the Board of Managers; F. H. Gilbert, vice-chairman; N. D. Johnston, vice-chairman; A. Cromier, executive secretary. The staff members are: Q. H. Vaughan, business secretary; E. B. Weatherless, service and activities secretary; Dangerfield, physical director; and A. F. Miller, Boys' Work secretary.

The Day GEORGE WILLIAMS GavetheY.M.C.A. to the World . . .
IN 1841 George Williams, a clerk in a London store, finding moral conditions almost intolerable, decided something must be done to improve them.
He began religious discussions with a few of his associates which led to small group prayer meetings. These services proved so beneficial that Williams conceived the idea of extending their scope. His plan was received with enthusiasm and at a meeting held on Thursday, June 6, 1844, the first Y. M. C. A. was founded.

Special Audience Sees 'Appearances'
Special Audience Sees 'Appearances'
Show Opened on Monday at the Hudson Theatre
Theatre
"Appearances" comedy-drama by Garland Anderson, former San Francisco bellhop, made its second bow to New York Saturday evening at the Hudson Theatre, Borty-fourth street near Broadway, before a special audience. The play opened Monday for a run.
Outfitted with a new character and a new choice bits of current wiercaking, "Appearances" proved a diverting and thought provoking vehicle. The play tells the story of the life of the writer, who was a rise of a bellhop, places as a dramatist.
---
Anderson's bellboy hero is an exponent of truth and faith, preaching the success of his theories to the guests of the Hotel Shasta. He runs about of the hotel with life. Later his truth theory itself with a district attorney in a court where he is on trial for a serious offence.
James LaCurto, white, played the role of the Negro bellhop with a sincerity and naturalism that appealed to the audience. The part he colored the dally Rise to white. The audience showed its most vociferous approval of Doe Doe Green, who as the ignorant and shiftless porter brought a wealth of humor and pathos to the play. Lee Miller, white, as the good friend Kellard of the first mother actor approved by the audience.
The play works up tremendous interest, in the first and second acts but lays in the third. All in all, Mr. Anderson has done an excellent work in getting much needed propaganda over to the whites. His play, however, is likely to not be most appreciated by the masses because its message is above the average playcoer.

Obstacles in Way of Playwright
Obstacles in Way of Playwright
When Wallace Thurman was working on his play, "Harlem," with William Jordan Rapp, it is said, the only pince the pair could get together to eat while playing. The session was a Chinese chop suey place. It it interesting to note that Messrs. Rapp and Thurman sought refuge in Sardis, one of the best known theatrical restaurants in the city. Walters zapped on the pair in surprise and the head waiter rushed down and opened the upper dining room, and when they had insisted their meal asked them to leave by the back door. This is one of the many experiences encountered in putting out "Harlem," the second company of which leaves to open for a two-week run in Detroit on April 13. Third and final pay is planned for London and Paris when negotiations for the presentation are complete.
"Blackbirds" Songs for Talkies
Lew Leslie announces plans for making two numbers from his "Blackbirds" talks. The two selected are "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby!" and the "Orgy" scene. If this is done, it will be the greatest thing Leslie has accomplished.
Says Muse Le Inspiration
Too much praise cannot be given Carnegie Muse for his sterling work in the Fox film, "Hearts in Dixie." With all of the sob stuff flowing from the screen, Muse succeeds in putting over the moral that nothing the colored man has was obtained without hard work. He illustrates well how parental sacrifices on the part of the former slaves work on the moral that nothing the colored doctors and lawyers who are making reputations will over the country.
In teaching this lesson, Muse reaches the foundation of the success of the colored race in America. And his interpretation of the role of "Happus" far excels the low-comedy of Stepin Fetcht, which plays the Negro as an androgynous and ineffective, shifty, careless and lazy. Muse represents that spirit which motivated Booker T. Washington and others who have achieved something for the race. Mr. Muse is really the star of the splendid film which was hastily prepared to forestall the success of the movie. It presumes "Hearts in Dixie" it will have to be a super-film. Of course, there are parts in the film which are objectifiable, but on the whole the film is worth of its presentation on Broadway where it ends a long run on the thirties. Muse's speaking voice is excellent, as is the rest of the supporting cast. The colored race in America bows to Mr. Muse's art.

AT THE ALHAMBRA
Happiness is the keynote of this week's drama at the Alhambra. In honor of the first anniversary of the addition of dramatic plays to the Alhambra program, a special treat is offered in "Mighty Like a Rose," a play of mother-love, with a cast of fifteen. Susie Sutton has the mother role. Brianna Lefkowitz has the puppet lawyer, George Randol and Ted Blackmon are young sports from Harlem visiting the old southern home. Manda Randolph is a gossip village dressmaker. It's a case of laughter chasing the tears away, as this pretty play of sunshine, childhood and a mother's forgiving heart works its way through many difficulties to a laughing finish. Sandy Burns, Apus Brooks, George Whitshire and some others set out for Afar. The encounter is called King" and his little daughter, these being Johnny Lee Long and Edna Young, and there are many surprising adventures.
There are a number of new beauties among the sixteen Alhambra Girls, and there are delightful novelty dance formations. Clint and Marle, popular entertainers, are an extra added attraction, and are cordially welcomed by the audience.
"The Thrill Seekers" is the lively picture feature of the triple program.
The Alhambra Next Week
Philanthropist or demon? That's the puzzle of that famous work of Robert Louis Stevenson, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde". Audiences the world over have beheld this weird drama of the struggle for mastery of two different natures in one moment. Harlem will see this celebrated drama for the first time. The Alhambra Drama Players are busy rehearsing this classic play, which demands extraordinarily fine acting. "Springtime Revue" will reveal Sandy Burns breaking into high society. "Ashes" invades a toney garden party with some of his pals, and they create a show that will be its picture feature "Untamed Justice," in which Alice Lake is starred.
Fashion Show at Alhambra
This Wednesday, April 3, a fashion show will be presented as an extra added attraction at the midnight performance at the Alhambra Theatre. A number of Harlem shops and dressmakers will provide model gowns for spring and summer, which will be worn and displayed by the Alhambra Girls. The fashion show is under the direction of Aldina Hawkins Halnes.
AT THE LAFAYETTE
Will Vodrey's revue, "Swing Along," opened a week's engagement at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday. With an unusually large cast, including some splendid singers and dancers, "Swing Along" is a departure from the ordinary revue type of entertainment. An ensemble through play. During the unfolding of the story the principal characters "struct their stuff." The outstanding feature of the show is the singing of Will Marion Cook's chorus.
The cast of "Swing Along" includes Margaret Lee, Lois Parker, Revella Hughes, Orlando Roberson, Winteld & David the famous chorus girls from "Show Bout." and Will Marion Cook's band and singers.
The photoplay program for the week includes the Vitaphone talking melodrama, "The Haunted House." This is
ways dangerous animals, but had never been molested. Kootz was armed only with a light blimp, but when two of the lions began fighting he tried to separate them. They both turned on him, and another joined the mole. A woman with a knife tried to attack them with piles and the trainer managed to rise and escape through a door. The massive teeth missed his jugular vein and he may recover.
"Tin-Can Henry" Dies
The quiet minor notes which came from a tic can on the end of a cornet or trombone and caused paroxysms of laughter and brought repeated applause from California audiences for a number of years is stilled forever. "Tin-Can Henry" Allen died Tuesday in a hospital at Los Angeles, Calif., of diabetes, and with him passed one of the most unique characters of the western musical world. He originated the use of a tin can to draw strange and bizarre sounds from the instrument he was playing, and although many of his performances limitied him he still remained head of the class. He led orchestras at many of the biggest white sight clubs, including Sebastian's Cotton Club, and at the time of his death had his orchestra at Solomon's Famous Dance Palace.
Patrons of the Bohemian night club, at Eleventh and U streets, knew that all was not well at the rendezvous Tuesday night, but did not decide definitely just what the trouble was until the members of the vice squad, who were over the club, began to arrest those within.
Those who sought diversion at the club did not have to wait until they reached the interior to discover that things were not just as they should be. On the outside was a strange dcrman, who not only invited the guests inside, but also several to enter when they hesitated.
On the inside an even stranger atmosphere permeated the usually lively place. There was a stillness about the place. The orchestra was apparently posing for a picture, and the entertainers sadfully by. In fact, everything extraides were until the "strange guest" began to operate, and several arrests followed.
Charles A. Jones, the manager, was arrested charged with possession and selling of whiskey; Lovie Williams, tapper, was charged with sale and possession; another officer were charged with possession and Elaine Blakee was charged with resisting an officer when she refused to enter—the club when the policeman who was serving as doorman ordered her to do so.
This is one of the several raids made on the night club, and according to report the real purpose is to get the "man who is behind" the operation of the establishment.
Night Club in Raid
presented with the Vitaphone score,
"The Haunted House" is a weird,
spooky melodrama. In addition the
photoplay program also includes "On
the Road" and some of the comedy
which reveals some of the secrets of
the broadcasting studios.
The Lafayette Next Week
"The Temple of Jazz" is the title of next week's stage attraction at the Lafayette Theatre.
The cast will include Sammy Vanderhurst and Susyse Brown, who are now headlining in Keith vaudeville under the name of Sammy and Gus. Gerald Hall, Mattle Hite, Dewey Brown and Kay Crippen, Thompson & Walker, Happy Holmes, Willie Jackson, John La Kue and Ralph Cooper's Dancing Dolls are also seen.
The feature photoplay will be "The Midnight Taxi," the Vitaphone talking melodrama. Helene Costello and Antonio Moreno are the featured players. Levy and Bill Rumsell, who will be remembered as the stars of "State Street Sadie," are also in the cast. In addition to "The Midnight Taxi" the photoplay program will also include some Vitaphone short' subject novelties.
AT THE LINCOLN
"The Lenox Club Revue," the revue at the Lincoln this week, is in reality a bit of the Lenox Club Revue, a bit of the Cotton Club Revue, augmented by some fine comedy and dancing.
The cast includes Sam Manning, Maudie Russel, Louis Coles, the producer of the Lenox Club Revue; Issy Ringold, Lena Wilson, Lawrence and Lawrence, the Dixie Trio, Dot Bell, Gwen Posey and a chorus of twelve dancing girls. A capacity audience attended the opening performance and voiced their approval by keeping the show going for 2½ hours, instead of the schedule time, which is 1½ hours.
The feature picture being presented, in addition to the Lenox Club Revue, is "Adoration," starring Billie Dove. "Adoration" is a gripping story of love and revolution in darkest Russia and in the Apache dens of Paris. Antonio Moreno is in the splendid supporting cast.
At the Lincoln Next Week
Another week of splendid entertainment is promised to the patrons of the Lincoln Theatre for next week—both on the stage and on the screen.
As the stage play, Irvin C. Miller will perform "Moon," an musical melodrama. Irvin C. Miller himself, Hilda Perlin, Octavia Sumler, Ida Brown, Neal Lawrence, the three Brownies, Lon Vernon, "Fats" Brown and the best of Irvin C. Miller's well-known choruses comprise the cast. The musical starring "Ned McCobb" Daughters is starring Irene litch. It is a gripping story of murder and
AT THE RENAISSANCE
"The Doctor's Secret," a Paramount 100 per cent all-talking picture, now playing at the Renaissance Theatre, is pleasing hundreds this week. It will remain until Friday night. The insight into London society which the splendid acting of Ruth Chatterton gives, and the clear, distinct manner in which all may be heard, together with the many highly dramatic effects in the entire production, make it one that will be enjoyed by all.
Renaissance Next Week
Pathe's first all-talking picture, "Strange Cargo," comes to the Renaissance Theatre for five days beginning Saturday, April 6. Fourteen well-known stage stars speak and act in this production. Featured are Lee Patrick, June Nash, George Barraud, Kryce Bellew, Frank Reicher and Josephine Brown.
The plot has to do with a mysterious skating of the owner of a palatial yacht, eht last seen the man is talking to his friend in a brilliantly illuminated salon. The lights go out suddenly, a grean is heard and when the lights are again on the man has vanished.
Dots, stripes and plaids are to be seen in many of the early spring showings, and are being welcomed by screen stars, both in their pictures and personal wardrobes. In "The Flying Fleet," Ramon Novarro's naval aviation romance, which will be at the Douglas Theatre Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Anita Page, the herolone, wears one of these late models. It is a glamorous frame frosted in. The blouise is made sleeveless and is fashioned with the new yoke effect, in a bright polka-dot pattern of blues and reds.
Pajamas are worn for all indoor occasions. The tea pajama suit — the lounging pajamas — the breakfast pajamas, and the comfort sleeping pajamas. "A Lady of Chance," the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture coming to the Roosevelt, Norma Shearer and Gwen Lee appear in some of the latest modes.

Thanks From the Brotherhood
The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters wish to sincerely thank The Amsterdam News, Mr. Lew Leslie, Sol Leslie, the Blackbirds, the Lafayette Theatre and its manager, Mr. Frank Schiffman, the Alhambra management the many actors and actresses and the public, all of whom have made it possible in the last eight months for us to make this splendid and successful and since July last four benefits. We have always, because of the loyalty and fine spirit of the actors and actresses, been able to present what we promised, and hence a splendid bill, each succeeding one better. We have played to full houses, and each time full co-operation from every one. Three of the benefits have been held at the Lafayette Theatre through the magnanimity of Mr. Frank Schiffman and the co-operation of Mr. Burt, and one in Philadelphia at the Gibson Theatre. For the four hours of the tour of $6,505.14 and a total expense of $2,700.00, leaving a balance accruing to the Brotherhood of $4,355.41.
First benefit ..... $1,576.50
Second benefit ..... 1,452.50
Third benefit ..... 1.91
Fourth benefit ..... 1,304.50
Total ..... $4,354.41
We could not close this report without expressing our sincere appreciation to Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty, dramatic and sports editor of The Amsterdam News, whose untiring efforts in arranging and promoting these benefits have established him in no mean way as a real producer as well as a well-wisher and benefactor of our organization. Also Mr. Wm. H. Davis, the business manager of The Amsterdam News, who spent a great, denial of his time as a man, said that the sale of tickets at The Amsterdam News office did not slow up at any time.
May we also express our sincere gratitude to Mr. Bill (Bojangles) Robinson. In present him with a cup we did so with a realization of the fact that it was only a token of our very great esteem and our love for him, not alone for the things he has done for us, willing to continue to do daily, as is shown by the following letter:
Really I am at a loss to find proper words to express to your, fellow officers and members of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters the genuine appreciation in presenting me a loving cup of tea on a day evening at the Lafayette Theatre. As I have said before, your gratitude to me has so filled me that the only thing I can say is—that I still stand ready to help you in any way that I can. Again that is great. Sincerely yours,
(Signed) BILL BOBINSON.

Notes of Paris
"Mississippi" or "Show Boat" opened here Friday night at the Chatelet Theatre. Too much cannot be said about Harvey White, who, as Joe, sang "Ole Man River" in both French and English, with a rich voice which so delighted the audience he was forced to respond to numerous encores. Mr. White, who for several years has been with the International Five, is well known on both continents and was the recipient of many cablegrams from friends in America.
Miss Maa Allicks arrived in Paris recently and is entertaining at the popular Plantation Club. Miss Allicks is a lively and talented artist and is sure to be a success here.
Louis Mitchell's Jazz Kings are playing at the new El Garron, one of Montmartre's attractive night clubs.
Miss Zaldee Jackson, who is entertaining at Choz Florence's nightly, also sings at the Boeuf Sur La Tolt from 10 o'clock until midnight.
Among those noted at opening night of "Mississippi" were: Miss Thelma Greenie, Alberta Hunter, Francis Mann, Edith Wilson, Ruth Bayton and Queenye Davis.
Invitations are out for a unique party to be given Friday afternoon by Miss Ada Smith, in honor of Miss Mae Allicks of Chicago.
Miss Alberta Hunter is meeting with her usual success at the Cotton Club.
Eddie South and his Plantation Boys will leave Paris for Spain on March 25.

The new home of Brooklyn Lodge at 1070 Fulton street, not being ready as yet for occupancy, the meetings of the lodge will continue to be held at the Harker street until further notice. Funeral services over the remains of the late William A. Brown were held Wednesday evening at Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, the pastor of the lodge, the official. The ek ritual service was conducted by Exalted Ruler J. M. Washington. The deceased was a life member of Brooklyn Lodge. A proposition to give to all twenty-five members of Brooklyn Lodge life membership has been advanced by a committee sent out for that purpose.

**Manhattan Lodge.**
Manhattan Lodge's youngest Marching Club president, E. W. Simons, is making good on his newest assignment. Under his management team, he is leading the vigor and strength. Simons is also the chairman of the reception committee that is arranging for Thursday night's affair at the newly renovated Rocking Club, recently inaugurated. Manhattan Lodge is expected to pass a rule that no delegates will be paid to attend this year's convention at Atlantic City. Suburban street, exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge, conducted his second initiation since taking office last Saturday night. The house committee is planning several invitational affairs at the club house, 268 West 350th street to celebrate the firing of the club house manager and renovating. The club house is now a really beautiful and comfortable one.
Imperial adopted a rule at the last meeting that not one cent would be contributed this year towards delegates to the convention at Atlantic City.
Does It Pay to Fight?
At least Roy Freeman, of Dayton Ohio, thinks it pays: When a National Officer of the N. A. A. C. P. turned up in Dayton four weeks ago he was in jail with a sentence to the electric chair hanging over him—having been convicted of first degree murder without recommendation of morcy at the hands of a jury of white men. The two lawyers in the case at that time had given up hope and were advising that mercy be sought from the presiding judge, which would mean a life sentence without eligibility for pardon. But after a conference with the local branch, and a one hour investigation of the facts, the N. A. A. C. P. said "light". It was no murder which Roy Freeman had committed. It was at the very most manslaughter: a policeman, in arresting him, had stuck a gun in his side and threatened, angrily to "kill him". Roy Freeman had grabbed the gun-hand of the officer and in the struggle the gun went off. The officer shot, but clipping the lower part of the policeman's heart in the second shot. But all the while this gun was in the officer's hand.
But the police were angry: a policeman or two had already been killed in Dayton, one of them previously killed "by a nigger" even. Therefore, the whole police machinery was set to work to execute Roy Freeman. The two lawyers almost begged us not to attempt a retrial, but to accept life sentence — insistence in the case that he would be electrocuted if we failed in second trial.
We went to the jail to see Roy Freeman. We found a great big 12-year-old child who was forty years "of age." We asked him if he objected to our risking his life by fighting the matter to a finish. He said, naively: "Of course not, 'cause I didn't do it, they 'ain't got nuthin' on me. I am not guilty." Poorly. He did not know the picture of the officer he had run away after the shooting and be captured" afterwards, and the police had found some Greek who swore that he saw Roy Freeman shoot the policeman. All this was against Roy. But fortunately the

y to Fight?
Greek had told the obvious lie; that is, it was obvious to everybody except the Dayton police, the trial judge who was prejudiced, and the blasted jury. The Greek had said that after Roy shot the officer and ran, the Greek had run up to the officer and propped the officer up while the officer emptied the gun at the fleeing Negro. The gun was empty, all the other shells having been fired. But that second shot had clipped the officer's heart, which meant death in five seconds and that it was impossible for the officer to fire a single shot with the gun, got medical authority to confound with this lie; the visiting N. A. A. C. P. officer made great use of this lie in a great mass meeting of white and colored people, showing that this Greek was a liar and that all his testimony might be false and that it was the Greek's testimony that the police had brought forward to send Roy to the chair. We argued that the Greek had evidently seized the gun that had fallen from the policeman's hand and himself fired at the judge. This Greek was trying to pluck the gun from the chair, but for some reason was afraid to confess it in court. This lie was his undoing and our luck.
We also went and hired a third lawyer, Albert Scharrer, who was perfectly willing to fight. Scharrer offered to accept manialaughter, however, which would have meant a reason in support of the police were so sure of their frameup that they refused any compromise short of first degree plea and life.
We therefore went to battle, and a second jury of white men acquitted Roy Fraser. This is one of the most singular victories of our observation. It may pay to fight it out.

System Filled With Poison as a result of CONSTIPATION
Mr. R. J. Black, of Kelton, S. C., says:
"I could not eat and my rest at night was disturbed. I was troubled with the effect of gas pain, and I hardly had a comfortable day. I was nervous and worried. All I could do was to complain. I tried several things but I could get no relief. All my siliments were the result of chronic constipation which caused my system to become filled with poison.
"One day a friend suggested that I try Black-Draught. I began taking it right off. I continued the medicine for several weeks and since then I have felt fine. I am in better health now than I have been in years.
"Black-Draught is a splendid remedy for constipation. Thousands of others say this sama.

Dr. Moton Tells Why R. R. Taylor Was Selected for Liberian Post
Dr. Moton Tells Why R. R. Taylor Was Selected for Liberian Post
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., April 1. — (ANP) — Mr. Robert R. Taylor, vice-principal and director of industries of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, left the Institute Sunday, March 17, for Liberia, Africa, where he is being sent by the Phelps-Stokes Fund, the Tuskegee Institute, and the Liberian Government to supervise the location and erection of the Booker Washington Industrial Institute, an industrial school to be erected in Liberia to train African youth along lines similar to those employed at Tuskegee. Mr. Taylor's long association with the work at Tuskegee and his intimate contact with both Dr. Booker T. Washington and Dr. Robert R. Moton have admirably fitted him for the task to which he goes. He was the unanimous choice of the executives of the interests that are sending him.
More Boys' Clubs Are Needed
More Boys' Clubs Are Needed
W. T. Coleman, field secretary of the Boys' Club Foundation, declared that nine-tenths of the delinquency among Negro boys were due to the lack of properly directed boys' clubs.
Mr. Taylor is an architect by profession and is the first colored man to graduate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. With the exception of a few of the very oldest buildings, Mr. Taylor has planned and supervised the erection of the more than 120 buildings that comprise Tuskegee Institute. Aside from the construction which has been largely his responsibility, the Taylor has contributed much in the shape of the policies of Tuskegee and for a number of years has served as Vice Principal.
Mr. Taylor sailed from New York City, March 22. He will spend three to six months in Liberia, Mrs. Taylor is accompanying him.
One of the finest expressions ever accorded any of the many Tuskegee workers was shown when nearly two hundred men of the Institute, the United States Veterans' Hospital, and the Institute community gathered in the studio of the photographic division Friday evening, March 13, to bid Mr. Taylor a farewell. On behalf of the mechanical faculty, most of whom have worked with Mr. Taylor for a number of years, Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of the Institute, presented Mr. Taylor with a fine pair of field glasses. "It is no accident," Dr. Moton said, "that Mr. Taylor has been asked to go to Liberia on this mission. It is no accident that Tuskegee should have been consulted in the selection of a man for this task; nor that Miss Stokes should have left this money in the hands of Mr. Taylor, a natural outgrowth of Booker T. Washington's policies, his foresight, and his genius.
"There is no man in the country better qualified for this task than Mr. Taylor. His experience, his training, his leadership, his teamwork, his Tusksegg, is fortunate in having
Expressing an opinion gained from sixteen years' experience working with "under-privilleged boys," Mr. Coleman declared:
"I do not concede that the Negro is 'criminally inclined.' I feel that, to a great degree Negro crime is magnified, and because of prejudice, and ignorance on the part of the Negro, the Negro's sunny nature, even under trying circumstances, does not bear out the inference that he is naturally criminally inclined or more susceptible to crime than any other race. His happy go-lucky disposition and hilarious laughter show that he is good at heart. The citizens who are successful must think seriously of this so-called undesirable member of the group. You may succeed in building up wonderful enterprises, but it is possible that your worldly goods may be put in jeopardy if an illiterate Negro commits a crime that kindles racial strife; therefore, if you are racially involved, those of us who have made a mark to reach down and lend a hand to our weaker brother.
"To do an effective job you must work with the boy. Stop boy crime and build character in the street archit and you have gone a long way
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3, 1929
available such a man to render this service."
Responding Mr. Taylor expressed appreciation for the expressions of confidence and the token of affection which his friends tendered him. He pledged anew to his in and above the Tuskegee Adolescents education. "The advancement of the race," he said, "must be made along those lines laid down by the Founder of this institution. We must build for ourselves a sound economic foundation. We must acquire those things which other people have and want.
Mr. W. A. Richardson told why the reception was held for Mr. Taylor. Mr. C. H. Evans recounted Mr. Taylor's service at Tuskegee. Mr. A. P. Mack served as toastmaster. Other speakers included Adlin J. Neely, R. C. Atkins, Flevl L. Abbott, Dr. William F. Pleen, Edwin R. Carter, William H. Carter, A. B. Terrell, Charles H. Gibson, Sr., Warren Logan, Lt. Col. Ward, S. W. Johnston, E. C. Roberts, A. L. Holsey, and Channing H. Tobias, senior secretary, colored men's department, International Committee of the Young Men's Christian Association, New York City.
The committee in charge of arrangements was composed of M. D. Garner, W. A. Richardson, H. V. Hans, F. Blake, Anderson H. R. Waggener, W. M. Pack, H. C. Abbott, W. G. A. Johnston, and C. L. Abbott.
Saturday evening Dr. and Mrs. Moton entertained in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Taylor. As Mrs. Moton put it, it was a "love feast" in the fullest sense of the word. Tokens were presented Mr. and Mrs. Taylor by Dr. Moton, after which a number of friends extended good wishes.
towards bettering the race and preventing adult crime. The Boys' Club is one agency that has proved its worth in the field of minimizing juvenile delinquency.
"The Boys' Club Federation. 630 Graybar Building, New York City, is eager to assist in promoting clubs for these colored boys.
"Since it is the object of this organization to help the under-privileged boy and, with 66 2-3 per cent of the boy population belonging to this class, it can readily be seen what a big task is cut out for them and the large field in which they have to labor.
"The Boys' Club Federation realizes that the colored boy falls under the category of underprivileged, and he is a little more than a brother; therefore, in order to do the job well, every effort should be made to establish clubs for these boys, as well as for white boys.
"There are 222 white boys' clubs in the country and only ten clubs for colored boys. The object of these clubs is to give underprivileged boys
Your Auto
With the coming of spring, many Harlemites are looking forward to the country week-end and summer trips are even now planned. The motor car will, of course, play a most important part in building the tired business man and his trips into the woods or to the seashore. Many have cars that have been doing duty throughout the winter and some particular autolist will some time be used to his car a thorough going over. The must be greased, summer oil put into the motor after the winter gas has been drained out, and a general inspection and inspection of tires attended. Those who haven't cars will begin investigating the market carefully for new and used cars and be motorized. The motorist who has decided to buy a used car should be very careful of his selection, as we have preached from time to time in this column. We choose a responsible dealer if possible one who is a factory representative and gives a thirty-day guarantee to replace worn parts of the used car with new factory parts necessary. We choose the auto salesman who rent a vacant lot for a few months or the one who stands a car on the street corner for inspection. The paint is the bait that loads many a novice and some old-timers into buying a car that should be in a junk heap. Women, of course, wear cover and fancy tops that are not suitable unless it has a durable motor.
These are just a few of the tips that should be heeded; and by all means do not attempt to obstruct a car whose unseen, because of its size, one nose to the grindstones. That soils all the pleasure of moloring.
Massachusetts Democracy in Turmoil
BOSTON, Mass. April 1 (ANP)—The hitherto smooth-working Democratic organization machine among Negro leaders of the part in Massachusetts has struck a snag. The entire organization of which Dr. Silas F. Taylor is chairman is at loggerheads with Attorney Julian D. Rainey, titular national head of the party among colored people, by reason of his position as national organizer and chief director of Negro forces in the last campaign.
the right start in life by surrounding them with wholesome environment, and to afford them an opportunity for educational, physical, moral and social advancement. The type of boys' club promoted by the Boys' Club Federation is on a community basis working from a central building. The boys are gathered en masse, but divided into group clubs, and programs planned to suit the wishes of the group. No special effort is required to interest the boys and secure the attendance of as many as the space provided will allow them to learn more than lies in securing adults who will form a committee or board of directors and assume financial responsibility.

Massachusetts Den
BOSTON, Mass. April 1 (AING Democratic organization m the part in Massachusetts has station of which Dr. Silas F. Tay with Attorney Julian D. Rainey, among colored people, by reason ganizer and chief director of Neg The impending rupture culminated Thursday evening when in a letter addressed to Dr. William Worthy, secretary of the organization, Mr. Rainey offered his resignation as a member of the body, which action precludes his being chairman of the executive committee to which he had previously been designated.
No reason was given by Mr. Rainey for such action. His repeated failure to attend the bi-monthly meetings of the organization at the "Wigwum" and otherwise lack of co-operation and interest, gave rise to the belief that he looked with disfavor on a permanent. Democratic organization among Negroes. He said that he preferred to work as a long wolf during election times.
At a previous meeting, which Mr. Rainey did attend, he questioned the wisdom of his acting in a minor position in the State organization, instead of being designated the actual head. He said by holding the minor position in the State body, his nationality was lost. John W. Yourselfhood, former state

To this, however, the former secretary makes vigorous denial. He said pressing personal business alone prevented him attending the meetings regularly.
J. Thomas Harrison of Cambridge, colored Democratic leader of Middlesex County and liaison to National Committeeman Edwin Quinn, took Organizer Rainey to task, accusing him of being famous for writing letters detrimental to himself and to the cause, recalling Mr. Rainey's letter written to a Southern white man during the last campign.

-- Mr. Hoover Speaks Out -:-
O'Higgins tried to and went to his grave blaming relig-
ion instead of himself. Science and religion may meet,
in fact, they do meet, but their convergence is at a
point far beyond human ken. Take religion away and
the greatest hope and solace of the human race is
destroyed. To put science in its place would substitute
ice-water and blood.
THERE is an old hymn called “Come, Ye Discon-
solate,” which has brought more spiritual comfort to
humanity than all the science ever discovered. In one
line it sums up the whole argument against agnosticism:
“Go, ask yon infidel what boon he brings us, what balm
for aching hearts.” .

Civilization and the Jungle
A YOUNG HARVARD MAN, P. L. T. Putnam,
has just returned to Cambridge after a year in the wilds
of Africa. He went there to study the native Negroes
for the Peabody Museum of Harvard University. This
is his conclusion: _ “I am not at all sure that the en-
trance of civilization into the jungle will benefit them.”
HE DID NOT HAVE to go all’the way to Africa
to find that out. Wherever Caucasian civilization has
penetrated it has brought moral and often physical
death to the natives. America was full of Indians till
the Caucasians came; how many Indians are there
now? Hawaii had a goodly population, but since the
Americans came the natives have been dying out. The
same thing is true of the South Sea islands. In Africa
the invasion of Caucasians brought wholesale slavery,
the depopulation of large territories, vice, drunkenness,
disease. Darwin's account of his Pacific voyage makes
special mention of the way the natives die off before.
the white invaders; they seem to lose the will to live.
YET MISSIONARIES chafe at the failure of Chris-
tianity to drive Mohammedanism out of Africa, Chris-
tianity may mean holiness, purity and altruism to us;
to the African natives it means men with guns in their
hands and murder in their hearts.

Wherever possible Trade With Stores in Harlem That Do Not
Practice Discrimination in the Selection of Their Employees.
Sign the Bill
Te expected has happen-
ed. The things prophesied
have come to pass. In my re-
lease last week I predicted
that the political reconstruc-
tien of the South was at hand.
I claim no gift of prophecy ior
this foreknowledge, but mere-
ly the ability to discern the
signs of the times.
During the Inst campaign 1
pointed out in a half dozen re~
leases that 2 deep-seated political
cunning underlay the surface ap-
Pearance of things, Kansas City
did not supplant composite delega-
tions with thelr “Illy white” rivals
merely to safeguard Mr. Hoover's
political fortune, By shrewd dis-
cernment the far-seeing statesman
saw a chance to split the solid
South and to build up a function~
ing Republican party as a result
of the cleavage. ‘The issues of
“Rum and Romanism” led to a
new rebellion, ‘The long awaited
opportunity had arrived,
Now comes Mr. Hoover and he
makes a clean breast of the whole
situation. From the days of Mc-
Kinley to those of Coolidge the
Grand Old Party had vaguely and
vainly hoped to bulld up a com-
peting Republican party in the
South. Two insurmountable obsta~
eles stood squarely athwart the
path of that purpose—the Fifteenth
Amendment and the leadership of
the Negro. The Kensas Clty con-
vention soft pedaled the Fifteenth
Amendment and side-tracked the
Negro, ‘The progress of the cam-
paign made plain the thinly dis-
guised policy.
The fall of the Negro from his
reconstruction politica! prestige
and power has witnessed three de-
clsive steps. ns follows:
1. The withdrawal of force to
assure fair elections by President
Hayes.
2. ‘The exclusion of the Negro
AMONG THE MEASURES passed by the Legis-
lature in the session which has just adjourned is a bill
appropriating $25,000 for the erection of a monument
to the former Fifteenth Regiment, now called the Three
Hundred and Sixty-ninth. This work has been placed
in charge of a commission consisting of Colonel Hay-
ward, who led the Fifteenth in the World War; Charles
W. Fillmore and Louis Cuvillier.
IT IS EARNESTLY HOPED that the Governor
will sign this measure. No American regiment in the
war had a more brilliant record than the one which is
still popularly known as the Fifteenth New York. Be-
ginning with the exploits of Henry Johnson and Need-
ham Roberts, it carried on so well that finally the whole
regiment was decorated by the French for bravery. It
was the first American regiment to fight its way to the
Rhine. In the face of the constant censure of Harlem
within and without the city, it is well to have an en-
during monument to the valor of Harlem's boys on the
battlefield.

“Only a Mistake”’
LAST YEAR Patrolman Ferrari, a Brooklyn police-
man, reported that he had jumped into the water and
swum to the rescue of a drowning man. For this feat
he claimed a special reward, and was hailed as a hero.
But certain reports came to Police Commissioner War-
ren that caused him to suspect that the rescue was a
prearranged affair, and he investigated it. He made
Ferrari take a swimming test, which proved that Fer-
rari could not swim, or even keep himself afloat. Mr.
Warren dismissed him from the police force.
NOW COMMISSIONER WHALEN has reinstated
Ferrari, saying that the patrolman only “made a mis-
take,” and that Ferrari's commanding officer also made
inaccurate statements, which Ferrari had to back up.
Mr. Whalen also reinstated two patrolmen who had
been dismissed by Mr. Warren on the charge of drunk-
enness.
EVERYONE sympathizes with a man who makes
an honest mistake and no one begrudges him his rein-
statement. But Ferrari's “mistake” was not honest;
he staged a rescue and lied about it. Nor should the
cases of the other two policemen be condoned. Some
classes of men may lie and drink and affect only them-
selves, but policemen are specially entrusted with the
safety of the public. It is disquieting to think of this
safety being entrusted to liars and drunkards.
Ree a news item
published in the Ne-
gto press was copied by some
of the daily papers and now it
has found its way into the Eu-
ropean papers.
This bit of news Is revolutionary
in its significance. for once more
the enemies of the Negro have
had one of their arguments—this
time thelr pet argument—shatter-
e@ into a thousand irretrievable
fragments,
The bit of news referred to Is
that Mound Bayou, Miss, the Ne-
gro town founded by isaiah 1.
‘Montgomery in 1987, with now a
population of 3.000,’ has had to
abolish its prison and discharge
those who Kept it, as there ts no
need for their services. ‘The Tast
arrest, st 1s reported. was made in
1922, and the last murder was com-
mitted more than twenty years
ag0.
‘In this population of 3,000 are
seen very few white persons, near
ly all of whom are salesmen who
are in the town for a day or two,
Blood and Ice-water
HARVEY O'HIGGINS, a well-known writer, died
recently. At his funeral his opinion of religion was
read, and later it was given wide publicity. He said
he had discovered that religion was futile, that after
all his pondering he had arrived nowhere, that fear is
the keynote of all the dogmas, that science has made
the mystery of life more sublime than the resurrection,
NOTHING is easier than to disparage religion, espe-
cially among those who keep searching for proofs.
Religion is not reducible to mathematical formulas;
but these people insist upon treating it as if it were a
proposition in geometry. Religion is a matter of emo-
tion, of instinct. Robert G. Ingersoll, the famous infidel,
once tried to have some fun with an old colored wo-
man; he asked her how did she know that she had relig-
ion. She stumped him by asking: “How does you
know when you got a toothache?”
BECAUSE SCIENCE his exploded many myths
which have gathered about religion, many modern
thinkers make science their god. But, as Herbert Spen-
cer pointed out, science itself has to take many things
on faith. Scientists speak of such distances as the mill-
ionth of an inch, but who ever saw the millionth of an
inch? They say a certain star is a decillion miles away;
that the star Betelgeuse is millions of ‘times as large as
the earth. Can they prove it? And if they should,
what good would that do to the human heart? An
anguish-riven mother sits weeping beside her dead
child, and along comes somebody trying to console her
with Einstein's theory of relativity.
_ RELIGION jis of the heart and science is of the
mind, and anyone who tries to rationalize religion or
emotionalize science is on a fool's errand. Harvey

ing circumstances the Negro has
nelther the resources, influence,
connections or courage to assume
militant leadership.
AS a matter of fact, existing
Negro leadership served ‘only sec-
ondary and subordinate ends, It
merely manipulated delegates to
the National Republican conven-
Hons and put white men in office
who were more or less kindly dis-
posed to the Negro in minor mat-
ters. There was no indication of
securing lo the race as a whole the
rights to vote in local or national
elections. ‘This leadership might
have gone on for a hundred years
and at the end of the century the
‘Negro’s political status would have
been no whit advanced,
My complaint against Mr. Hoo-
ver 1s not so much for what he
has done as for the manner of his
doing ft. His whole program 4s
ostensibly based on corruption and
political scandal, which in the last
analysis fs laid at the door of the
Negro race and 15 calculated to
damn the Negro to everlasting in-
samy.
Practically every white political
leader in the South has or does le
under allegation, The Negro $s
made to bear the chief brunt of the
sulgma. Those leaders might have
been ellminated on the score of
pohtical expediency as effectively
‘fs upon the unproved charge of
corruption. ‘The chief objective was
not to get rid of corruption but to
Snstall white leadership, which in
turn 1s demanded by the incxora-
ble law of political necessity.
‘Mr. Hoover's recent pronunce-
ment but confirms what had al-
ready taken place. Every Negro
had already been eliminated from
Independent leadership, except Rob-
ert R. Church, who ‘alone func-
tons effectively in a quasl-Repub-
ican state, in his own powers. We
must walt’ to see whether he will
be co-ordinated, subordinated or
® minor offender. But the signifi-
cant fact is that these figures stood
in black and white in United
States records ‘giving incontest-
able proof to the assertions of
scientists and pseudo-sclentists.

Benjamin Smiths, Stoddards and

effect, The more rational white
sclentists like Davenport and Jor-
dan also found themselves con-
fronted with these figures and
Teadily used them in dubbing the
Negro inferior.
And the fact is that criminals,
ang most of all the murderers, are
vividly Inferlor types, no matter to
what strata of society they belong.
Both are regarded with abhorrence
among ali people. In the last an-
alysis the superior man is regard-
ed as he who loves his fellowmen
strongly enough not to steal from
them, nor to wound, murder or
offer them any kind’ of physical
violence. The inferlor types go
to the criminal courts; the su-
perlor to the clvil courts; the
Highest type of individual ‘is he
who Keeps out of the lay courts
altogether and settles his differ-
ences in the spirit of Jove and
brotherhood.
‘Much of the hostile attitude of
the white people towards Negroes
springs not so much from bad-
ness of heart as from fancied self-
preservation—the fact that they
hhave been taught that the Negro
is a danger.
Even the Negro writer was in-
fluenced adversely when faced by
these statistics on criminality. It
took much explaining on his part
explanation that was based
rather on belief than on proof.
I remember. however, that in
primitive Afrien theft and mur-
der are almost unknown in the
tribes—there are no locks, prisons
and steel safes, though the
tribes murder and’ steal from one
another like European nations;
that in the Island of Jamalen, with
® population of some 800,000 Ne-
Broes, murders ave comparatively
rare—Memohis with perhaps one-
tenth of the Negro population, has
something ike “a hundred times
more mutders In a year than Ja-
malca; that pretty much the same
holds ‘true of Negroes over the
World. ‘Therefore, the difference
Aes not in ‘Negro” psychology, but
eliminated under the "Illy white"
Democratic combination.
‘The building up of a compet!-
tive Republican party may in the
Jong run bring the undisputed right
of suffrage to the Negro as it has
already done in Maryland, West
Virginia, Missourl, Kentucky, and,
I had almost said, in ‘Tennessee.
‘The immediate sacrifice and the
ultimate reward must be welghed
in the balance. ‘The bugbear of
‘Negro domination is thus removed
which, 1t may be hoped, will lead
to a more tolerant and liberal mind
by those who hold the controlling
say in southern affairs,
‘Will Mr. Hoover insist that his
reconstruction policy in southern
polities must square on all fours
with the Fifteenth Amendment?
Or will he observe a circumspect
silence while this amendment is
made-into a scrap of paper as his
predecessors have done? Will he
wreck the fabric of his philosophy
‘of public righteousness by compro-
mising on the race question? Mr.
Hoover's whole program, as at pres~
‘ent disclosed, leaves us in a quiz
zical, if not @ querufous, frame of
mind,
‘One wonders how far the con-
sultation and advice of Negro lead-
ers, or any other leaders, are in-
volved in Mr. Hoover's program.
‘Was Mr, Hawkins consulted? Does
he give his approval and consent?
How will the Negroes of the North
view the matter?
‘There are three possible courses
of action for the Negro in the
South: He may accept Mr, Hoover's

in the manner in which the Negro
4s treated.
Reasoning in this manner, I said
something to the effect that the
high murder rate of the American
Negro was due to the state of irrl-
tated tension in which most Ne-
groes perpetually found themselves
because of white persecution.
Again, if the American Negro
group contains the greatest per-
centage of criminals and murder-
ers, the American Caucasian group
exeeeds all other white groups in
the same. The United States is
the most lawless and murderous
country on earth, ‘The white
Americnn points to the Negro as
inferior because of his criminal sta~
Ustics; the white European ,may
and does,point to the white Amer!~
can becalise of his.
‘The onnual white American
murder rate exceeds that of all Eu-
rope. In 1922 Chicago, with its
great white population, alone, had
more than five times as many tmur-
ders as England and Wales, 9
ratlo of some 60 to 1, while New
‘York City was not far behind,
‘The white american charges Ne
gro criminality to inferlor heredity,
Saying that the lowest type of Eu-
ropean migrated to America. We
may leave these two accusers to
settle thelr own battle, One fact
4s evident, however: "the white
American ‘cannot plead the ex-
tenuating circumstances of the Ne~
gro. The former is lawless for the
love of it.
‘The example of Mound Bayou
ought to go far toward settling the
old argument of heredity versus
environment. ‘If," as The Amster
dam News sald editorially, "the Ne~
gro 4s so criminal, if he can be re-
strained only by the strong hand of
white authorities, why has this Ne~
gro community not gone down in
® chaos of robbery and murder?”
Human nature, in no matter
what age or ctime, acts according
to certain eternal Jaws, regardless
of racial variety. There are, no
doubt, many white communities in
the United States with a record like
Mound Bayou's. ‘Try to learn the
cause of this and you'll find that it

economic injustice. !

as white America, with its ‘Jim-
Crow laws, §s responsible for the
surplus of crime committed by col-
ored Americans.
‘The story of Mound Bayou ts a
decisive victory for the humanist—
for those who insist that the crea-
tion of better environment creates
better people. But what will hap-
pen? This important truth will
drop into the great sea of white {g-

“THE CONJURE WOMAN.” By Charles W. Chesnutt
Houghton, Mifflin & Co,
T seemed the irony of fate that Mr. Chesnutt’s publishers,
I keeping his novels in print for twenty-five years, should
have allowed them to become inaccessible just when litera-
ture on the Negro was becoming popular. As Mr. J. E, Spin-
garn says in the foreword to this volume, “Mr. Chesnutt was
the first Negro novelist and he is still the best.”
‘That his books should go out of:
print is a calamity and we wel-
come this reprint of “The Conjure
Woman," not only as placing a
Negro classic in the market again,
but as @ promise of more to follow:
“The House Behind the Cedars,”
“The Marrow of Tradition,” and
those other volumes that some of
us are fortunate enough to have

this Js a promise, it is needless to

“The Conjure Woman” is a series
of short stories told in dialect by
Uncle Julius, an ex-slave. Mr.
Chesnutt, a Northerner by birth,
‘spent nine years of his young man-
hood as teacher and later principal
in the colored school system of
North Carolina, It was at this
time that he got his material for
hhis books,
‘His conjure tales are full of a sly
humor. Uncle Julius is s canny
character, The stories he tells his
northern employers illustrate the
weed of being more lenient, more
sympathetic to the people about
them, To the young Northern girl
who has quarreled with ‘her lover
he shows Chloe's ha'nt, “That
comes eve'y evenin' en sets down
vunner dat willer tree en waits fer
Jeff, er else walks up en down de
road yander, Jeokin' en lookin'; en
waitin’ fer her sweetheart w'at ain’
nebber, nebber come back ter her
no more.”

shiftiess young grandson by the
story of Jeem's Nightmare, a white
man changed to a slave and receiy~
ing a slave's punishment.

Back of all these storles in "Ths
