The arresting officer was Detective Joe Brown of the West 135th street station, who was repeatedly commended by Magistrate Dodge for the excellent manner in which he prepared his case against the two men. Brown has often been referred to as Harlem's ace detective. Griffith Complains. Griffith was arrested on a similar charge by Detective Brown last November. Detective Boyden assisted with the arrest but could not appear as a corroborating witness because he had resigned from the Police Department. He has recently been reinstated. Brown said that Boyden's absence at the trial of Griffith resulted in the jury disagreeing, and Griffith was discharged. Griffith immediately entered a complaint against Brown on charges of persecution. Captain Hyams did not entertain the charges against Brown, it is said. Brown swore that he had caught Griffith in the very act of robbing apartment 7 at 201 West 135th street on Nov. 9, last, and that he had a stolen overcoat in his possession. Griffith declared he was framed, as did his attorney, H. Thornton Banks, white, 154 Nassau street, who also represented Bain. Booty Identified. As part of the stolen property was being identified, Attorney Banks engaged in many verbal tills with Magistrate Dodge, who rebuked him. Griffith visited the West 135th street station on March 27 and told Brown to arrest him if there was any evidence against him. No arrest was made until Saturday, March 30, at 160 West 118th street, after Brown had been observing Griffith and Bain for several hours. Previous to this a robbery had been reported at 311 West 145th street. Bain confessed to this and several ether robberies, Brown said, but declared that he only acted as lookout man, while Griffith did the burglarizing. Much of the stolen property would be found at Griffith's home, Brown said Bain told him. Brown declared he (took six suitcases of "hot stuff" from Griffith's home, and that much of it has not yet been identified. Bain denied the confession. Several Homes Robbed. Sarah Stevens, 311 West 145th street, was the first complainant. She said her home was robbed of clothing, the property of Willie Williams. This case was heard last Wednesday, when Griffith and Bain were held without ball.

Mrs. Kelley, who is a probation officer of the Children's Court, lives with her daughter at 226 West 150th street. In her complaint, Mrs. Kelley alleges that Mr. Kelley left her "wilfully and wrongfully" on or about March 2, 1928, since which time he has "wilfully and wrongfully failed and refused to live with her as a husband and refused to provide suitably for the support and maintenance" of herself and daughter. The defendant admits the estrangement, adding that his only regret is that his wife did not sue him for an absolute divorce "instead" of a separation. He maintains that by her own choice his wife has always been self-supporting and that he has always supported and will continue to support his child. In his reply he will set forth the fact that since February 1, 1928, and until the present time he has contributed an average of $92.66 per month towards the support of his child, and that he has cancelled checks and receipts to prove it. He will be defended by Alderman John Clifford Hawkins, 2313 Seventh avenue. Dentist Sentenced. NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 15.—(ANP)—Dr. R. B.

C., April 15.—A prophecy of twenty-eight years ago was fulfilled Monday when Oscar DePriest, Republican, was sworn in as a member of the Seventy-first Congress from the First Congressional District of Illinois. — Oscar DePriest — CONGRESSMAN Shanks Declared Insane CHICAGO, April 15 (A. N. P.)—David Shanks, convicted slayer of Miss Jennie Meta Constance, white, Northwestern student, was declared insane here Saturday when he was given a sanity hearing and will be committed to the state asylum.

The Grand Jury and the Court of Special Sessions few paces ahead of George Danshaw, 21, white, 517 West 159th street, a collector for Borden's Farm Products Company. As the milkman neared the third floor Wilson, he said, whirled around with a gun in his hand and cried, "Slick 'em up!" Whereupon Danshaw raised his hands while Wilson, he claimed, went through his pockets and took $7.19. Danshaw was then forced at the point of the gun to go to the roof. Wilson locked the roof door and fled, Danshaw said. Wilson denied the charge and said he had been working that morning as a helper on a laundry wagon. He was on the laundry wagon when arrested, it is said, as Brown pointed him out to Patrolman Howard as the youth who burglarized his home. Brown is living at the home of Wilson's uncle at the 142d street address. He took the oath of office with 40% other members-elect who were present at the opening of the extra session of Congress Monday. The oath was administered by Speaker Nicholas Longworth following his re-election as speaker. No objection was offered to the administering of the oath to Mr. DePriest. The dropping of a charge of conspiracy against him in connection with vice and gambling concessions on the South Side of Chicago for benefit of evidence last Saturday removed the basis for any objection that might have been raised against his being given the oath. A crowded gallery looked on as Mr. DePriest took the oath of office. Society people and diplomats were present. Among the prominent Negroes seen were: Dr. Emmett J. Scott, W. T. Andrews of Baltimore, William L. Houston, Charles H. Houston, Mr. and Mrs. Louis R. Mehlinger, Mortimer M. Harris, Thomas H. R. Clarke, Mrs. A. M. Curtis, Mrs. Norman W. Harris and Mrs. William J. Howard. Mr. DePriest succeeds the late Martin B. Madden. He was put on the ballot by the congressional district committee to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Madden. He was elected in the November elections. Jailed in Attempt to Regain Artificial Leg Because the artificial leg he gave Rose Reddy, 77 Osborn street, Brooklyn, increased her popularity among men and increased his jealousy in proportion. Sylvester Walker, same address, landed in jail Sunday. Walker gave the girl the $180 limb to replace one she lost about a year ago. Enraged by the attentions paid her by other men, he met her at the house Sunday night and demanded return of the leg. Two witnesses charged that Walker flourished a revolver to accentuate his demand. A pistol was found on the window ledge and Walker faces charges under the Sullivan law.

Blood, Urine, Board Hears Plea For Harlem Pools Board Hears Plea For Harlem Pools East Side Urges $500,000 Project; Committee Acts Monday Harlem's clamor for municipal swimming facilities was redoubled Monday before the Committee of the Whole of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment when advocates of the 134th street location and the 120th street and Sylvan place site agreed upon a single hearing for the two proposed projects which would cost the city $750,000. In addition to considering the erection of a $250,000 pool adjoining the 134th street bath house, the Committee will hear the plea of lower Harlem civic groups for a $500,000 bath house and swimming pool. The Harlem Board of Commerce, the Anthony La Rocca Association and the Mt. Morris Community Council were represented at the meeting Monday to urge their proposal. When the roll of communications was called Monday, no report was available on the 134th street improvement. It was ordered adjourned for two weeks.

We have been especially interested in your statement that it is now proposed to include within the scope of the Commission "the entire general machinery of justice, a redistribution of its jurisdiction, a simplification of its procedure, an additional special tribunals, better selection of juries, and more effective organization of our agencies of investigation and prosecution." "This association has been especially gratified to note that it is intended to cover the entire question of law enforcement and organization of justice. "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, having as one of its main objectives the full enforcement of law, is deeply interested in the personnel of this Commission, which would go into the whole question of law enforcement in its broadest and most comprehensive scope. We feel that since this question so acutely affects the eleven million Negroes of the United States, the appointment of a qualified Negro of the Commission would enormously encourage Negroes, strengthen the Commission and benefit the country as a whole. There are at least a half dozen distinguished, well equipped and currently qualified Negro Americans who have already served their country with distinction. To mention only a few of them, may we direct your attention to such distinguished lawyers as the Hon. James A. Cobb, Judge of the Municipal Court of the District of Columbia; William H. Lewis, Esq. of Boston; former Assistant United States Attorney General; the Hon. T. G. Nutter of Charleston, W. Va., former member of the Legislature of that State; the Ohio State E. of Cleveland, Ohio; member of the civil service Commission of Cleveland and merely, for four terms, a distinguished member of the Ohio State Legislature and many others of this callibre. This association, of course, is not urging the candidacy of any one of the men named to the exclusion of the others, or of many more men of 1 like ability. We mention these names simply to indicate the type of Negro lawyers who are available for appoint to the Law Enforcement Commission. "May we respectfully request and urge the appointment by you of a Negro American to the Law Enforcement Commission in order that the Commission may have more fully at its disposal information as to that considerable percentage of American citizens against whom lawlessness has been most flagrant."

Myra Logan Receives Medical Scholarship (Continued from Page 1.) pathic Medical College and Flower Hospital, it was learned today. The scholarship, recently established by Dr. Walter Gray Crump for the exclusive use of "a deserving Negro . . . desirous of studying medicine," is the only one of its kind in this country granted by a medical college. Miss Logan is the first to benefit by it. Miss Logan is an alumna of Atlanta University, where she received an arts degree, and of Columbia University, from which she obtained her master's degree in 1928. She is the sister-in-law of Dr. Eugene P. Roberts of 130 W. 130th street. At present she lives with the Roberts family. Dr. Crump, donor of the scholarship which will enable Miss Logan to take up a four-year medical course, has for a long time been interested in the advancement of the Negro. This interest is directly attributable to his father, Samuel Crump, who was an active abolitionist and maintained one of the first underground railway stations via which many slaves sought and obtained freedom in the North. His father also occupied lecture platforms with Susan B. Anthony in the struggle for woman's rights during the last half of the nineteenth century. For the past four years Dr. Crump has conducted special surgical clinics at the John A. Andrews Memorial Hospital in Tuskegee, Alabama, in connection with the "annual pilgrimage to Tuskegee" fostered each year by William Jay Schleffeln of this city, Julius Rosenwald of Chicago and other members of the board of trustees of Tuskegee Institute.

Launches African Project Student "Y" Supports Native University Movement The New York University Y. M. C. A. formally launched a project for furthering the educational work of Max Yergan, association worker in South Africa, last Wednesday evening at a dinner conference at University Heights. Dan H. Ecker, white executive, described the project as the beginning of a "N. Y. U. in South Africa." The official hastened to explain, however, that the student branch is not attempting to project a full-fledged university at once, but expects to aid and enlist support for Mr. Yergan's work with the ultimate aim of building a professional school for natives. Other university organizations will be asked to throw their strength behind the monarch's policies, including cannonball Elmer Ellsworth Brown, have already given their sanction. Principal speakers at the conference were Dr. Conrad Hoffman, white, European secretary of the World's Student Christian Federation, and Dr. Channing H. Tobias, Harmon award winner for 1994 and active colored work of the National Council of the Y. M. C. Dr. Hoffman praised Yergan as a man who is "deeply spiritual with a practical mindedness. He cited the practical mindedness." He cited the natives for Christian and industrial improvement. The speeched medical scholarships in New York University for natives. There are no facilities for medical training of Negroes in the Union, he said. Dr. Tobias also lauded the Y. M. C. A. worker, who last year returned to his mission, and that he supported that concert Sunday had almost been completed. The noted tenor will do arms You Sh BEAUTY SHOPPE C. J.

Harlem Press Viewed As Benefit and Evil The Harlem weekly press was slammed as a retarder of social progress and lauded as a vehicle of advancement last Tuesday night in a debate at Metropolitan Baptist Church, Seventh avenue and 128th street. The speakers debated the subject, "Resolved, that the colored press of Harlem is responsible for the lack of local progress of Harlemites." Arguments were offered by the affirmative to show that the weeklies touted crime and scandal and neglected constructive work. The affirmative was represented by U. S. Poston and A. M. Wilk. Miss Ella J. Baker and P. R. Wallek took the stand that presentation of all the news is the duty of the journals, and contended that substantial advancement has been made with the aid of the press. All the speakers are or have been engaged in newspaper work. JUNIUS M. GREEN PRESENTED LOVING CUP A silver loving cup was presented to Junius M.

BERLACK Just for fun let's play a game the avenues and streets of Harlem Harlem Tenements. If we do, the St. Nicholas, Seventh and Edged hundred blocks of West 137th, 133 the aristocratic portion of this far avenues, of necessity, will have twins." My recent "apartment hut the line of demarcation, and perh Just for fun let's play a game of personification and call the avenues and streets of Harlem the children of Mr. and Mrs. Harlem Tenements. If we do, the well-kept avenues (parts of St. Nicholas, Seventh and Edgecombe) and streets (the two hundred blocks of West 137th, 138th and 139th) will represent the aristocratic portion of this family, while Eighth and Lenox avenues, of necessity, will have to be called the "black sheep twins." My recent "apartment hunting" tour is the sole basis of the line of demarcation, and perhaps the following information Dine in Honor of Melville Charlton Testimonial Tendered Noted Organist of St. James' Presbyterian Church An unusually fine musical program preceded the testimonial dinner given Monday evening for Melville Charlton, organist of St. James' Presbyterian Church, 141st street and St. Nicholas avenue, who is reputed to be America's greatest Negro organist. The program, also a testimonial, was rendered in the church proper, while the dinner was served downstairs in the lecture room. The Rev. William Lloyd Imes, pastor, introduced Harry T. Burleigh, famous composer, as the presiding officer. Those appearing on the program included Benjamin Ragsdale, barlton; Mrs. Marguerite Kennerly Upshur, pianist; Miss Gertrude Martin II, violinist; Miss Doris Trotman, soprano; Alexander Gatewood, tenor, and the St. James' Choir and others. The general committee was headed by James B. Brook, and Karen C. Blue, joint chairman, and the dinner committee of twenty was headed by Jimmus M. Green. Mr. Charlton was presented with "Thirty Transcriptions for the Organ" by Navin by the Rev. Mr. Imes. Another valuable and rare volume, "The Art of Organ Peddling" by Ellingsworth, is being imported from abroad and will be presented to the St. James' organist later, the pastor said. Among the speakers were: Mrs. Virginia Hunt Scott, Mr. Charlton's first music teacher, and Harry Williams, musician, who studied abroad. Other speakers included Dr. Charles A. Butler, Robert Douglass, Minnie Brown, the Rev. George Frazier Miller, Bessie Beardon, the Rev. Shelton Hale Bishop and Attorney H. Eustace Williams. URGE NEW ACTION IN HEALTH FIGHT Health and social workers of the city sat in conference Wednesday afternoon at the Urban League, 202 West 136th street, and advanced arguments on "The City Negro's Outstanding Health Problems and What We Can Do About Them." The meeting was under auspices of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, the New York Urban League and the Henry Street Visiting Nurse Service. Evangelist to Speak Mrs. Berta Harris, evangelist, will speak on "The Golden Calf" at West 137th street, Sunday at 4 o'clock. She has been president of people's Missionary Society and a Sunday-school teacher for ten years. To Address Meeting Attorney William T. Andrews, special legal assistant of the N. A. A. C. P., and Charles Alexander are a address public meeting of the Stuart School of Law at Mark's M. E. Church. 48 Edgecombe avenue, Sunday at 5:30 p. m. Late Mme. Walker A Business Pioneer The Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing Co., organized for beauty college and beauty parlor service, has national headquarters in Indianapolis, and is among the planners in Negro business. The Mme. C. J. Walker founded the business 25 years ago, and her daughter, Mme. Aelia Walker, is the present head. L. B. Ransom is the general manager. New York City has two school centers, one located at 110 West 136th street and the other at 2580 Seventh avenue. The organization has other school centers in Indianapolis, Chicago, Detroit, St. Louis, Cleveland, Philadelphia and Los Angeles. Employees are employed in the business in various parts of the country as instructors, organizers, managers, beauty operators, advertising managers, drug clerks and stenographers. Gabriel Montenegro, white, has a shoe store at 2539h. Eighth avenue. He came to Harlem 25 years ago—been Negroes came into the area. Eighth avenue. He employs no colored persons in his business. SUPPLY STORE FOR BEAUTY CULTURISTS Sage Hinkson has a barber and bake shop. Seventh avenue. Sagehaven avenue. Will make you agree with me I will make you agree with me and will always be notorious. This may account for the fact that there are comparatively so few vacant apartments on that avenue between 128th and 145th streets. But Lenox avenue has all the earmarks of being a "colored" tenement section! The managers of a certain apartment house tell you on a large pink sheet of paper and with the use of the old tenement rent problem is solved by inspecting the premises at 362 Lenox avenue ... all modern improvements, newly decorated single and double rooms to let $4 per week and up, including gas and electric light ... Rooms are going fast. Phone Harlem 4937. The lady in charge of the seven furnished apartments in this house showed me the timest of tiny rooms and the timest of large rooms. Sometimes, she said, she has other rooms that rent for as high as $7.50 a week. Landlords have evidently become wise to the fact that they can realize more money on apartments in prewar houses by renting them furnished and by the room. All of the open apartments have five living rooms; these are conservative estimates will give the landlord $25 a week. $100 a month, for each apartment. And this is called a solution to your rent problem! At No. 383 a tenant has to pay $45 a month for five rooms on the second or fourth floors; no steam or hot water, but access to electricity and gas. The top floor of No. 456, five railroad rooms, with steam and hot water, and the landlord $45 a month, while the apartment one flight up brings him $55 monthly. You should see the four filthy rooms at No. 459 for which the landlord is asking $45 a month, and for which he gives you no steam and hot water, and no dumbwatter on which to put your garbage. Underneath this vacant apartment is the Holy Temple Church of God, in which services are held every Sunday and may be two or three times during the week, and next door to the apartment is another church. Information about the vacant apartment may be received from the ladies in a millinery store. It is amusing the way the milliner tells you about this "modern apartment"—five railroad rooms, one flight up, for $55. If you are looking for a free apartment, then go to No. 472, three flights up. The owner, who is also proprietor of a hardware store at that number, says I might have to find a few of them in winter—without any cost if I wanted to become the caretaker of the place. I thanked him graciously and started thinking to myself of some family group who might be glad of this opportunity, but even then I would have to wait a week ago could not make me mindful of the extremely cold days we have sometimes during the winter months. At No. 628 the janitor could not be found, but I could tell that the third floor apartment Was vacant, this being the first one above 140th street. At No. 677 four rooms which the janitor called a "box flat" are rented for $50 a month. They are three flights up in the rear. To the person who is seeking a modern apartment for a moderate rent per month, I give these words of wisdom: "Stay away from Lenox avenue!" "T. B." Expensive.

PURETEST and REXALL Drug Stores Seek Jobs for Negroes In Harlem Chain Stores Supported by Harlem housewives whose purchases contribute substantially to the support of Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company stores in the district, the Rev. William Lloyd Imes, pastor of St. James' Presbyterian Church, was scheduled to meet A. and P. officials in a conference yesterday to ask appointment for Negro clerks in managers. Considerable resentment has been evidenced recently because the company employs so few Negroes in any capacity for the Harlem stores. Many leaders believe that communities which the stores are located should be given preference in employment. The meeting yesterday was to have the demand strengthened by supporters of the A. and P. chain.

Why go downtown to shop, or for service of any nature whatsoever, when the very thing you desire may be had just around your own corner at a saving of time and energy—maybe money? Community Pride dictates that you should spend as much of your money as possible in your own community. See what your own community has to offer before going elsewhere to spend your money, and to do this you do not need to spend your money foolishly, or pay higher prices than you would have to pay elsewhere. Go through this list of business and professional men and acquaint yourself with their location and the kind of service they want to render you, and then, when you need their services, call upon them.

You take good care of your other two children, why not include him? Are they children? How does the house look when hubby comes home? Is it disorderly? Are baby things strewn about? Put the children to bed early; have your house tidy; make YOURSELF as attractive as you were when he first married you; and greet him with a smile and a kiss; and have an appealing superior. Can you each night? Can't you arrange a school girl or elderly woman mind the children evenings so that you can go out with hubby? Of course, you can. Why not have hubby invite the gang to his home to play cards? Ask him to mind the children one play card and go to a movie or club yourself. Or allow yourself to be dread looking.

These are put on the imprints of the waves at night and they serve to hold the waves in place. They can be bought at the 5 and 10 cent stores. Do not think that because you have a wave you cannot brush or comb your hair. The iron on the hair has a drying effect and in order to have a lustre you have to brush your hair. It has been my experience that brushing enhances rather than harms the marcel wave. It takes your hair grow it is better to have your hairdresser turn it up in the back, rather than curl it under. It looks better and is much in style. Study your type of hair and have it dressed accordingly. Miss Rica' Brown, 270 West 131st street. Greg Robert, 304 West 147th street.

Lackawanna 9214 EIGHT B in Best Sport Pages in Greater New York THE COWARD Remarkable Display of Cowardice at the New Coliseum Friday Night TO those who thumb the pages of history the action of Bushy Graham at Jess McMahon's New Coliseum last Friday night was but a throwback of a member of a raid whose forbears displayed great cowardice against the black armies of the Abyssinians when they sought to invade the country ruled by Menelik II, Emperor of the Sahara and King of Kings. Man to man against the blacks, the Italians turned and ran. And so it was at the Coliseum Friday night. Against the little black from Cuba the Italian did not run, but he resorted to the most unsportsmanlike method of fighting and it was but a charitable touch on the part of those recording the affair to say that he was out in the lead when the climax came. It was no such thing. To be in the lead by unfair methods is deserving of the demonstration of any person with the least bit of fairness in his makeup. The fight had hardly started before the Italian had almost placed the Chocolate "hors de combat" by fouling him. This took away from the Cuban and during the remainder of the fight he was simply carrying on because of a heart of gold. Warned a few minutes before he struck the fatal blow, Graham sensed that the Cuban was regaining his strength and knew that the end would be only a matter of time. Deliberately he launched out and disabled the gamest little piece of fighting machinery that has trod the boards of a ring in many a year. In dishonor Graham left the ring. His countrymen of fair intent, whether they were Italians born of American parents or but the expatriates of the old country, knew he had brought disgrace upon them. But the gamblers were saved. They were the only ones who had anything to rejoice about, for the Cuban black had started to send in his rapier-like blows when the end came. What matters it if we today ignore the necessity of going into the details of a combat that had such an ending. The tale has already been told and those interested are already aware of the result. Ours is only to record the glories of the winner and the cowardice of the loser. A week before the fight Graham gave a hint of the weakness of his heart. He stepped upon every rule laid down by the Boxing Commission of this State and it was only that these gentlemen did not want to spoil the opening show of a man who has been four square in the game that drastic action was not taken in Graham's case. When he sensed that he stood no chance in a fair fight with the Cuban he resorted to all kinds of excuses to embarrass those responsible for the staging of the fight. It would not be at all unfair at this time to assume that the up-State fighter (?) had hoped that he would draw disqualification before the bout, thereby finding an out. He absolutely refused to make 118 pounds. He refused to come into this city and put in the days of training which the commission demands be done by the out-of-town fighter. He forced a new contract to be drawn and few felt certain of his presence until he reluctantly crawled through the ropes. Graham knew better than the best expert at the ringside that the rounds he is supposed to have been winning before the fateful seventh were rounds in which the Cuban was trying to stave off the effects of the cowardly fouls. The disqualification which came to him in the seventh he expected in the second after he had been knocked down. It was no well-placed blow from scientific hand that knocked the Cuban down in the first round. It was simply the desperate effort of a scared fighter whose lucky blow landed and gave him as much surprise as it did his victim. But the blow which felled him he knew came directed by a brain which has brought Kid Chocolate from obscurity into prominence in less than a year. The coward knew it and made a coward's retreat, bringing to an inglorious end a night fraught with great possibilities. Spartans Close With Win The Spartan A.

'BUSHY' GRAHAM SAVED GAMBLERS' MONEY White Fighter Fouled Chocolate Repeatedly The Truth of What We Say FREEDOM If It Is True That Actions Speak Louder Than Words the Picture Above Bears Out the Special Article on the Chocolate-Graham Fight, Appearing in These Columns Today. The Little Cuban Is Confidence Personified, While Graham Looks—Oh, Well, Look at the Picture and Study It for a Minute. Is Bushy, Even at the Weighing-in Ceremonies at Which the Boys Posed, Conscious Even Then of What the Result Was to Be? FRATS DIVIDE IN COURT GAME Score Tied at One Time Be= between Teams at Rock= land Palace In the Interfraternal basketball games at Rockwell Palace in Satellite City, the defeated Omega in the preliminary, 39 to 34; and Alpha trounced Kappa in the nightcap, 39 to 16. The preliminary game between Sigma and Omega was by far the more interesting. It brought out the fact that Sigma has the best fraternal team of the year, second only to Alpha (?), with whom it did not get a return game. The Sigma team came on the floor with six men, crippled by the loss of its shifty little forward Cecil Jarls. The first half was tense and exciting, ending in a deadlock at 15 all. Drain, the sensational forward of Sigma, was unable to score more than one basket in that half: however, in the second period he came back to score 10 points. The team of Coach Bartlett, who whipped the team into better playing formation than it has ever been before, scored a nice shot. The team had only one practice before the Omega game due to the bad condition of their home court. The whole Sigma team deserves credit for the manner in which they played, especially as when time out was called it was found that the score was tied 34 to 34. Sigma then proceeded in the extra 5-minute period to untle the score and win game in sensational style. Bob Payne and Kid McCoy were high scorers for Omega of Sigma, while Dion of Sigma was high scorer for the game with 12 points. "Vie" Archer of Sigma was the dark horse of the game. He received quite a hand for a beautiful shot he pulled from offside in the second half. Box scores Sigma-Omega game: SIGMA. F.G. F. T.P.

The official baseballs have been received, bearing the name of the league and the president; the umpires have met and received their assignments, and the teams are just rearing to go. Much interest has been manifested in the opening day and each of the eight cities comprising the circuit is determined to win the "opening day trophy," which will be awarded to the city which has the largest opening day attendance. While the rivalry is keen between all of the cities, Tulsa and Oklahoma City are vying with each other for first honors in that state, with Dallas and Fort Worth seeking to bring the honor to the Lone Star State. Who Is the Lady? A lady carrying a copy of The Amsterdam News last Sunday afternoon about 5 o'clock made a purchase at Travis Freeman's store, $305 7th avenue, and gave a $10 bill, walking out without the change. Mr. Freeman is anxious to have the party call for the money as he believes the bill was given under the impression it was a $1 bill. Good old Travis, just as honest as they make 'em and we have been proud to call him friend for some time. —THE EDITOR. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 17, 1929 Newest Coast Sensation Will Challenge Fields Soon LOS ANGELES, Cal., April 12 (By A. N. P.)—While the welterweight championship mishandled by Joe Dundee is pretty well muddled up the National and State Boxing Commissions will soon have to reckon with Sammy Jackson, a colored fighter in ususual fashion, has climbed up into the ranks of the Coast topnotchers in the welterweight class. Jackson is a handsome Santa Monica boy, who, although fighting almost every week, has only lost one or two battles and received very few draws. In his most recent battles he has beaten Joe Remhardt, Jack O'Brien Billy Cox, Gay Johnny Woods Francis Burns and, two weeks ago, Johnny Adams. One of Sammy's most memorable victories and one which drew a deal of attention to him was at the first of the year, when he beat Sailor Jimmy Carter, just a week before Carter fought Gans at Pasadena. The terribly beating the boy gave the clinching said by experts to have softened him up for Gans. The referee gave Gans a technical knockout victory, but, for a fighter of Jackson's brief experience, to do the same trick done by the clever, experienced veteran, Gans, bears out the report that Sammy will issue a challenge to Jackie Fields, the recognized champion, in a year or less. Coast Battle Postponed LOS ANGELES, Cal., April 12 (B A. N. P.)—Postponement of the battle for the West Coast championship between Neal Cilsby and Bearcat Wright. Instead of hurting it has only served to arouse more interest and also prevents the heavy expense of a lightweight title bout and a heavy-weight championship bout in the same week. The battle first set for the fourth will now be held on the Thursday and many admirers of the "California Thunderbolt" will journey by train across the viaducts to Garden City to see him meet the ring giant. Wright has never been seen in action here, and fans are anxious to see him go. Morris Cohan, no doubt, holds the record for having given more famous boxers their early matches than any other local promoter, as Baby Gans, Jack Thompson and other colored topnotchers did their early boxing there. He stages many mixed bouts, as they draw well, and the boxers the colorful trons, treating them with courtesy and consideration. A classy supporting card is lined up in addition to the unusual main event. Utopia to Banquet Teams The 1928-1929 basketball and track teams will enjoy a banquet on Friday evening, April 13, at the Utopia House, 170 W. 130th street. An excellent program has been planned and a number of well-known persons invited to make merry with the boys. Starting their basketball schedule 'winter' in the first season, a splendid record was made for their first season. Out of 10 games, 13 were won. The schedule consisted of some of the finest teams in the Boys' Athletic League. The fine spirit of sportsmanship and cooperation has already given Utopia boys a place in the basketball world. One 135 lb. team was captained by Earl McCormick, while the 115 lb. team recruited on the command of James Parker, who is also manager of the baseball team. Another season will find Utopia with a fully equipped team in each class. Members of the track team who made Utopia place third in the track meet held at the 212th Armory, March 22 will be included. A permanent track organization has been formed and practices are being held twice a week at McComb's Dam Park. Members will be entered in the outdoor meet at the park on May 18 also at Valhalla, N. Y., on June 15. Cavalry Track Elimination WEST POINT, N. Y., April 13.—The cavalry detachment track team start their elimination to determine the survival of the fittest. This elimination will represent the big field in the annual annual Big field meet, May 11-19, 1929, off Jefferson Harper, manager of the track team, has great prospect for the season victory. Among the celebrities are Isaiah Hansford, Olympic victor, 100 meters, at a Jersey City city tryout; Burum E. Walker, eastern champion 100-yard race; Noah Johnson, champion 100-yard race, 1928; and Elmer Morris, the flying demon, who took first place in last year's 100-yard dash. MIXED BOUTS HOT AT 27TH MIXED BOUTS HOT AT 27TH Ford Stood Up Under Hot Fire, but Had to Give Up Jackle Aldare, of Williamsburg, biffed and banged his way to a devastating eight-round technical knockout over Oscar Ford, middle-weight, substituting for Jerry Kline, in the main bout. Seven times, Train last Tuesday night. The fight was scheduled to go the ten-round route. The Eastern District had out-fought the colored battler from the start, taking seven of the eight rounds. The other one was even, Ford matching Aldare's blows. Starting right from the opening gong, the Williamsburger displayed an unhiring selection of sulphur blows to afford to rock Ford to sleep. His hopes were not fulfilled, however, when the colored boy stood up and took all that Aldare could offer without any obvious effects. the seventh round of the affair, however, saw Ford weakening but still on his feet. It was at this junction that the Italian fought best with the spectators shouting themselves hoarse for a knockout. The fatal blow failed to come. Taking blows and lefts to the body had ended, the colored adjutant yielded until the coloration of the eighth round when his resistance could stand no more. The referee then awarded Aidare a technical k. o In the semi-final, Tommy Rizzo of the 114th Infantry, earned a well-deserved eight-round decision over Ace Humphreys, star fighter from the 360th. The experience of Rizzo made itself evident throughout the entire scrap and he had little difficulty in overcoming some of the threats in the 'Hell Fighting opponent'. Only in the third round, frames did Humphreys promise to humble the Italian when he sustained an admirable sling contest with Rizzo. In the other two eight-round affairs Jack Tannyhill, a hard going biff-and-bammer, scored a one round k. o. over Tony Bonsingor, while Red Robbins also earned a one-round sleeper over Frankle Britt. Both victories were technical knockouts. The opening bouts found the Brandt brothers, Murray and Teddy, carrying the victories in their respective battles. The younger lad earned a four-round decision over Irish Dinny Cronin, while Teddy repeated the performance over Jackie Deans. CONCORD COURT MEN WINNERS CONCORD COURT MEN WINNERS Defeated Marcy Avenue in Semi-Final Tilt for Championship The Marcy Avenue Baptists lost to Concord Baptists last Thursday night on the losing team's count in a semifinal game for the 145-pound championship.

At the end of the first half the Marcy Avenue Baptists were all front Concord Baptists rallied during the last five minutes of play and earned the victory. During the rally the Concord Baptists tallied five field goals and seven penalty shots in succession. The score was tied five times the final score and once during the second half. August Harris, who is a star pitcher for the Franklin K. Lane High School baseball team, was the high scorer. He accounted for six goals from the field and three goal shots for defensive points, while his teammate Sandy Hundun, left forward, scored 14 points. Freddie Will of Marcy Avenue, right guard, scored three field goals and one foul shot for seven points. CONCORD. G. F. P.

Inside the clubhouse Man- ager Lloyd and his players were having thelr usual skull practice, while Mr, Kecnan and his official forces were trying to convince the lingering tribe of baseball devotees that indulgence of thelr fanaticism might prove of dire consequence to their own physical welfare and jeopardize the chances of the Giants in their coming fight for the Negro American League pennant. But the fans were out for a ball game and would not be dented. So, wide flew the gntes and the crowd entered therein. ‘They got what they wanted. ‘The one game played was the most interesting game of the early season, It was too cold for the Kensingtons of Philadelphia to make the jour- ney, but the Carltons were on hand and many of the fans who hed seen them in the first game of this season at. the Oval were anxious to see them again. ‘The Carltons are great ball players. If you ever see them play you will agree with the above statement. ‘They played the Lincolns fam-up. ‘The end of the game found the score at 4-2 in favor of the Giants. While there was nothing sensational or thyilling in the day's play, the amo nas, at Himes, sharp aad nappy. ‘the Galtons shoved up wel a al departments, especially pitching and fielding. ‘The Lincoins continue to show a desire and earnestness to ft them- selves for a gruelling struggle for that championship which five other teams of the Negro Amerlean League will be battling to obtain. ‘The frigid latmosphere seemed to affect them but a little. Young Yancey made a beautiful play on a relay from the outfield to the plate, while Charley Smith, after smashing a screaming two-bagger into the center stand, put on a daring bit of base-running that pleased the fans, and Manager Lloyd particularly. After landing on second, Smitty took a chance and drew a throw from the pitcher to catch him napping. He made a dash for third ‘and when the shortstop was fumbling the throw, Smitty was on his way to the plate and scored standing up. it was an elegant plece of base-run- ning. It's an intelligent rudiment of the game. 1 miss my guess if the Lineolns will not put on more base-running stunts than any other team in the League. No one knows the value of intelligent base-running any more than Honus Lloyd. ‘The manager of the Lincoln Glants has seen many | games of baseball where defeat looked inevitable but was turned into vic- tory by daring chances on bases. ‘There is action in base-running. "It livens the game and pleases the fans. ‘Next Sunday the North Philadelphia team of Philadelphia and the 'Bayonne team of Bayonne, N. J., will be the opponents of the Lincoln [Glants ac the Oval. First game will be called at 1:9. * ‘To the fans who stand two or three hours looking up at the cold figures of a score-board. we say take a trip to Protectory Oval, thirty minutes from ‘sth street and Lenox avenue, and look at some live baliplayers in real ball games. SINGLE MEN AT LAST IN VICTORY Season's Last Big Time Game at Renaissance Casino ‘The annual wind-up game between the married and single men on Bob Douglas's Renaissance team was the magnet that drew a fine crowd to the Renaissance Casino last Sunday night to witness the final of the 1928- 29 basketball season.

DESPITE the love of the majority for centers like Harlem, the past few years have disclosed a number of colored people with a desire to own their own homes. In 2012, we seen the infuse of a number of these people who are today comfortably housed in homes, some of them secured only through sacrifices of many of its associates. The fight of the South Jamaican Civic Association, white, to secure an appropriation of $750,000 to fix the streets in South Jamaica birds fail to reach a suburban conclusion within the next few weeks, conclusion within the next few weeks, again serve to center attention on this section of the growing suburbs, as was the case three or four years ago, when intensive campaign and dispossession between 500 and 1,000 new homes to Progress. It seems to be a peculiar trait of our people that, while we demand paved streets and all the modern improvements, we still outlive sections, we seldom do our work, and the right starts for these things and at times think we are paying too much for these homes when we move in with them. We are dried, such being made possible by the new ones coming before us. We are satisfied in most cases to wait until improvements are complete and then attempt to better the conditions disclosed by the new ones made by this paper into the housing conditions in certain sections of Harlem. Believing there are a number of our people still desirings of getting away from the routines as pictured in this paper during the summer, the firm of E. and J. Dorf, lumber and coal dealers, with extensive yards in the Hillside section of Jannick, decided to hire the most desirable lots in their possession. In their possession a number of new homes. About a year ago this firm, having a surplus of lumber and other building materials on hand, approached the personal appeal of the writer and eighty and a hundred homes, where can be found today. Negro families comfortably housed, meeting the small amounts regularly, with no one case of foreclosure for any reason on record. ROMEO L.

The committee is made up of Mesdames Turner, Whittaker, Drewestner, Jefferson, McKinney, McKinney and Miss Olz Jacksack. When the Negro newspaper welcomed the experiment of the Rockefeller internets, surprising that splendid cooperatives apparently had no avenue. Manhattan, there were no dissenting voices and, in a smaller way, we believe that the Dort interests are defended by the democrats, hence the consistency of supporting those doing for Negroes what they are apparently unable to do for themselves in a position so severe that NOT for do they also is a greater sense of satisfaction in owning a HOME outright than an apartment, regardless of the conveniences of leaving the city and its crowds. The inducements offered by the Dorf interests to honest and ambitious people seeking a home in Jamaica surpass any builder with whom we have had contact. We are our campaign of trying to help our campaign in throwing the burden of rent from their shoulders. A personal investigation has disclosed in the finished house the Dorf people, now complete (or perhaps some of the finest houses to be secured anywhere, desirable nine-room houses, ranged in price from $7,500 to $3,200, practically two-family houses, being with price of one-family houses, with a heat price of $2,000, making it no added expense to parties renting out part of these houses. The improvements noted include tiled kitchen, tiled, built-in, bath, parquet flooring, tile flooring, and, most unusually large clothes closets in a room, onto driveway, brick stoop, brick veneer porches, the famous Richardson window, steam plant, up-to-date electric furnaces, and every room. Located at Jamaica Calls and the Jamaica Hillside, these homes are also convenient to churches and hospitals, the town, with a desire to better their conditions in life and would do well to investigate and find out the attractive terms being of property, which is located right near the Hillside Island Railroad. It is only the success of this paper in serving thousands of readers that印ows our writers the ability to personally investigate matters of this kind and making recommendations. 25,289 MEMBERS 75% Under 30 Years of Age Brooklyn, June 9, 1853, the Y.

Brooklyn Lodge Will Lay Cornerstone After Services at Concord Church On Sunday afternoon Brooklynites will witness the cornerstone laying of the biggest building project ever started by any Negro fraternity in Brooklyn. Brooklyn Lodge No. 32 of the I. B. P. C. of Elks of the World lay the cornerstone and hold dedication exercises at their new building at 1072 Fulton street. This new home has been built in the cost of $1 million. Prior to the cornerstone laying religious services will be held at the Concord Baptist Church, of which the Rev. James B. Adams is pastor. Members of the order and their guests will march from there to the new building. The cornerstone will be laid by the Grand Lodge of the Free and Accepted Masons, Prince Hall, of which William Teagle is grand master. Members of Manhattan, Monarch, Imperial and other Elk lodges have been invited and will be present with their bands. This new home is the idea of the board of trustees, of which Benjamin F. Butler Jr. is chairman. Past Exalted Ruler Robert L. Zeno is secretary of the board. Other members William F. Foarfand, Warren Dillard and P. D. Early. The first agitation for a larger home was started several years ago when Robert L. Zeno was excalled by Robert L. Higgins and the present excalled ruler, J. Marion Washington, who has been in office four terms. In November alterations were started to the two buildings owned by the lodge. In the course of time it was decided to have a building committee. This committee has acted in an advisory role to the Board of Trustees. Past Grand Excalled Ruler George E. Wibecan was appointed chairman of the committee. Other members are: Grand Medical Director Dr. Roland B. Johnson, Dr. A. M. Jacobs, V. W. Wheeler, A. M. Jacobs, W. Ward T. Watkins, J. H. Williams, and William H. Banks. O. D.

In his bereft memory Smith is likely to return to Brooklyn among his many old friends. Lincoln Singers Scored at Local Church Last Tuesday The Lincoln University Musical Club presented a splendid reporte of songs which included spirituals and old-time melodies before a large audience. The concert was held at Yvette Jordan Church, 404 Lafayette avenue, on Tuesday night. The club is made up of thirty voices. A feature was the singing of the chorus by the band members, Allison J. Pinkett, bassist; James E. Dorsey, baritone and director; D. Hillard Robinson, second tenor, and William Allyn Hill, first tenor. This was the club's first appearance in the show, it made a very favorable impression. J. C. ARMSTRONG General Secretary SECOND SECTION Doris Trotman Gives Song Recital Miss Doris Trotman, soprano, gave a recital of English, French, German and Italian songs Sunday afternoon at the Imperial Hall. Miss Trotman was greeted by a large, friendly audience. She proved to them that she was in decidedly better voice than on many previous occasions. In the opening French group, Rabey's "Tes Yex," Debussey's "Volque le Printemps," and Dillique's "Nymphs and Fauns," Miss Trotman's diction was not the most distinct and she lacked the needed nasal suavity. Nevertheless, she was in deep sympathy with the music of the French school and her interpretations were imbued with color and charm. The singer, in her German numbers, showed a fairly good knowledge of musicianship and of musical instinct. Disaster often awaits the unwary whenever they venture into the remote department of the German lieder; but, seemingly, Miss Trotman was wisely advised and a selection was made of standard lieders best suited to the color and breadth of her voice. She sang Schumann's "Widmung," Mildenburg's "Ich Liebe dich," and Wagner's "Elsa's Dream." We feel that, with musical maturity and the proper technical equipment, the future holds for Miss Trotman great promise and a brilliant career as an artist. Professor Aldama Jackson was at the plano. Damrosch Graduates Students Please Audience The recital given by graduate and undergraduate students of the Darmosch Institute of Musical Art, Sunday afternoon at Grace Congregational Church, under the auspices of the Sigma Alpha Mu, was an occasion of exceptional interest and promise for the future of a talentedoup of young musicians. In the mind of the listener there was no question of talent and promise of a brilliant future for a few of the participants; in fact, all who took part deserve great credit for their determination and perseverance to succeed. The most obvious sign of the youth and the artist still in the assimilative stage was the performance of the first movement of the Viotti "Concerto" played by David Auld, and David Johnson's playing of the "Praeludium" and "Allegro" by Pugnani-Kreisler. Both violinists gave signs of promise, especially David Johnson, of becoming more than mere gifted students. Among the soloists, William Duncan Allen, pianist, by his manner and conviction, was able to hold the attention of the audience from the first note to the last of Debussy's "Reflects dans L'Eau" and Sanetana's "By the Sea." A hearty applause evoked as encore a brilliant and technically clean reading of Moskowski's "Walse." Miss Alma Bailey's performance of the Brahms "Ballade in G Minor" was also engrossing to the listeners. Vocal soloists were Cora Illidge, contralto; Vivian Collier, soprano, and Andrew Watson, tenor. Miss Illidge, in her "Splrate Pur Splrate" by Danauyud and "Trees" by Rasbach, disclosed an intelligent voice with a good knowledge of style and, in many respects, musically, Miss Collier, now in the embryonic stage, is possessor of a soprano voice of bird-like quality. Her charm and grace, with proper development, will endear her in the hearts of her listeners. The original compositions of Miss Blanche K. Thomas and Hugo Bornn Winifred Watson SOPRANO, and Andrew W.

From the very first measure the compositions were thoroughly alive. Both are to be encouraged in their creative workmanship. Lyceum Presents Three Artists The Bethel Young People's Lyceum presented the following artists in recital Thursday evening, April 11, at Bethel Church: Miss Muriel Stovell, soprano; Richard B. Harrison, dramatic reader, and Mrs. Maude Bascome Cummings, pianist. Both singer and pianist performed favorably well, considering the handicaps under which they labored. We fear the singer attempted too difficult work in an aria from Puccini's "Madame Butterfly" and in Bizet's "Carmen." Songs of a more simple contour are just as effective when they are handled with sweetness and proper tonal production. It was a pleasure to listen to Mr. Harrison's dramatic readings. Mr. Harrison does not utter mere words, but he expresses his every mood in a precise, smooth, dramatic manner. The twenty-second annual recital of the Martin-Smith Music School will be given on Friday evening, May 11, at Rockland Palace, 155th street and Eighth avenue.

Dental Talks By ROY C. PROCTOR, D. D. S. THE keystone of a perfect set of teeth is often needlessly lost in childhood. At the ages of from five to seven years, usually six, the first permanent tooth appears just behind the last baby or temporary tooth. There are four in all, one on each side of the jaw, both upper and lower. When one or more temporary molars are lost even the dentist sometimes has difficulty in ascertaining its identity, except by aid of the X-ray. Often the parent, mistaking the permanent molar for a baby tooth, allows it to decay early, expecting it to be replaced. When the dentist finally gets the case, he is unable to save the tooth. The tooth cannot be replaced for several years, as there is no permanent tooth on either side to support an artificial one. In the meantime, the erupting teeth in front will drift backwards and those behind forward, in both cases leaving spaces between them. Nature does this in an endeavor to close the space created. They also twist and are moved out of line by the force of occlusion while biting. Food packs into spaces and, being held there, causes early decay, and the irritation to the tender gums results in pyroarth, with eventual loss of the teeth affected. With these teeth out of their normal position, they may not properly interlock with those of the opposite jaw, causing too much stress on some and resulting in soreness, looseness and eventual loss. Many other misfortunes may result, challenging us to pay especial attention to this six-year molar, so that irreparable injury will not follow.

Friendly Credit Stores --- Purchase Certificates Apply Also on Used Cars If you expect to purchase a used motor car in the near future, but are not quite ready for the down payment at this time, you can save money and get possession of your automobile a great deal sooner than you anticipate through the 6 per cent purchase certificate plan, announced by the B. F. Curry Company, Chevrolet dealers. Many persons have been under the impression that the purchase certificate plan only applied to new cars. This modern saving plan is like a Christmas saving club, yet offering greater flexibility and advantages to the prospective buyer. Make Your Own Terms. You can make as small an initial payment as you desire on a 6 per cent purchase certificate, actually as little as $5, or you can make as big a payment as you care to, monthly, semi-monthly or weekly. No restrictions are placed on possessors of certificates as to the delivery date of cars. As soon as the car is delivered, you are obliged to make the down payment on the car, you are privileged to take possession. While your money is safeguarded, it is steadily increasing in value, because it earns 6 per cent interest from the day you make your first payment. It is highly endorsed by bankers, because it encourages systematic savings.

He Has Been Doing so Nice: ly in Leslie Show, It is Not Likely IS LIKED BY ALL Returned to This Country Last September After Scoring Big Abroad A Suropean paper, which cane to this office few days ago brings tha information in a lengthy article that they are longing to see Johnny Hud- gins again at the European capitals. which, when one considers the rise of so many stars in late years and the triumphs scored by so many across the water, is quite a tribute to the ean comic appearing nightly in w Lesile’s “Blackbirds” at the El- tinge Theatre. ‘The article in question was quite complimentary throughout, not only citing the work of Hudgins on the stage but of his rare personality when not working and in home surround- Ings made "most pleasant by his charming, beautiful and genial wife. ‘That the’ famous “wah “wah” man would be made the subject of a special article in a European paper almost eight months after his de- parture from hospitable shores has Gccasioned @ great deal of surprise as it is seldom that # performer holds the fancy of & people, accustomed to the changing tide of the world of the theatre after he has left the scenes of hils conquests. Hudgins opened with Lew Leslie's “Binckbirds” a week or two after his return to this country, although he had previously put in'a week at a Harlem theatre which lett his friends divided as to whether it was the best thing for him to do considering the Instre which he had added to his name asa member of the Florence Mills eapany in Europe and the Ponderful single whien he did after leaving “Blackbirds” in London.

Despite his success Johnny Hud- gins is of a retiring disposition mix— ed with @ modesty which leaves him without that stamp of boastfulness so marked in many others of his pro- fession. Perhaps this is an added reason why newspapermen have found pleasure and gone out of thelr way many times to single him out for special mention. so much so the ap- parent call for, nis return to Europe as. occasioned much comment in theatrical and other circles, although it is @ foregone conclusion that Mr. Lesile is perfectly satisfied with him Qs a member of the sensational “Blackbirds” establishing a record on Broadway. Hudgins had hardly returned to this country when he purchased his beautiful home in the Bronx, and few knew that he had decided to put, into effect this dream of an ambition born in the early days when he cherished an ambition to settle in this part of the country. Ina public gathering his is the most silent voice,.

For quite some time Hunter has been playing at the head of the European company of "Blackbirds" and the critics without any exception have singled him out for special mention in every city in which the show appeared. Like many of those with a longing to hit the trail to Broadway and then fill successful European engagements Hunter has had a hard road to travel, but being blessed with a keen insight in the work he has chosen for his profession, he has made his burdens light when others have been forced to almost give up. It was pointed out by those assuming to know that the comedian would not find favor at the hands of the European public and critics because his work was too fast to be grasped by English and other audiences. The story of how Hunter planned his debut while crossing the ocean would make interesting reading for a future day; suffice it to say that he foiled all hands, with success, had the pleasure of creating a quite a few enemies because of the instant success which he made on the other side. Eddie Hunter saw Harlem grow and did his share in furnishing entertainment to the thousands that later came to live in this section of the big city. He has never had to recreate "his life" in his work, the result has been wholesome entertainment whenever he had anything to do with the presentation of a show. His big success in "How Come" laid the foundation for his later success which find him repeating his triumphs "across the pond," and recent words he word reached his audience that he himself jetted about the latter part of July his friends halled the announcement with delight. The past few weeks saw the popular comedian in a new role when a mix up in dates threw him into the palatial Alhambra Theatre in London at the same time Miller and Lyles were appearing on the bill. Hunter was asked almost overnight to prepare a vaudeville sketch which he will be fully illustrated in his work by Norman Astwood and Fannie Hendrickson, with Anita Edwards, a Scotch girl and the only white member of "Blackbirds," who presented a number of songs written by Hunter in a manner which won immediate acclaim. The primary object of Hunter's trip to this country next summer is to complete arrangements for the new show he has been busy writing while heading the company in Europe, although it is rumored that it is most likely he will be forced to return to scenes of his triumphs two weeks later. The new show with bookings for long engagements in Europe. Rumor has it that at least one of the two weeks he will spend here will find him entertaining at some local theatre.

Russia offset by magnificent settings and picturesque costumes, the "Yellow Ticket" had one of the largest runs of any of the great plays and musical comedies staged here. It is a tale of persecution of the Jews in Russia with startling denouements and surprising climaxes. Miss Elysson Preer, as "Margery Seaton," was wonderful, though cast as a character the opposite of the "Lulu Belle" type. Miss Laura Howman as Kasha, a spy; Laurence Kriner as Baron Stephan Audrey; "Biddle" Thompson as Julian Roffe; Mal Sloff Kirkleen as Norlouie Zonhoff; worse outstounding parts. Mal Patton, local favorite. Charles Olden, Monte Hawley, Arthur Ray, Cloe Desmond and Robert Arthur filled other roles creditably. A large percentage of Jews attended nightly and applauded very heartily. Critic Raps Washington According to J. E. P. writing in the current Billboard, George Dewey Washington is not scoring a hit in his latest movetone release from Metro. The crittle writes: "George Dewey Washington does not NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY. APRIL 17. 1929 score a ten-strike in this Metro sound short. When caught at the Capitol The aire, the audience began to get fidgety before the start of his second number, and by the time he was half way through his third and final song he was not getting the least bit of attention." J. E. P. believes that one of Washington's faults in the act is his exaggerated "mugging" in front of the camera. Picture Companies Anxious The wise heads of the film industry are experiencing considerable anxiety in regard to the reception which is going to be given pictures which feature Negra performers or Negro themes. It is known that they feel they are treading on uncertain ground, and, in all cases, their experiments have not worked out well. "I note Tom's Cabin," the expensive Universal production, has been a disappointment to its makers, according to shoulders, and the Fox people are not quite sure what is going to happen to "Heaps in Dixie" after it leaves the big urban centers. Brooklyn More Hospitable Than Any Other Eastern City, Says 'Y' Secretary Brooklyn More Hospitable Than Any Other Eastern City, Says 'Y' Secretary Amateur Theatricals, Gym Work, Outdoor Athletics and Other Forms of Activities Add to Moral and Physical Welfare of Work in the "City of Churches" Brooklyn will have few. If any problems in the future through its 55,000 Negroes, in the opinion of A. L. Comither, executive secretary of the Carlton Avenue Branch of the Brooklyn and Queens Y. M. C. A. These people are largely industrious, law-abiding citizens, who are becoming home-owners, educating their children and taking their places as conscientious members of the community, Mr. Comither declares. He points to the fact that, although the colored population of Brooklyn has grown since 1910 from 22,000 to more than 55,000 at present, in the past ten years ten times as many Negroes have been purchasing their homes as in the previous 25 years. Brooklyn has proven itself more hospitable' than the average city to the Negroes within its boundaries, the Y. M. C. A. secretary states. He asserts that, conditions here for immigrants his home and that in Harlem, for example, where nearly 200,000 people are living within a square-mile area. In Brooklyn the colored people are scattered over practically the whole eighty square miles of the borough. Furthermore, rents are much higher in Harlem than in Brooklyn. The Carlton Avenue Y. M. C. A. has played a large part in the moral and physical development of the colored people of Brooklyn, although great strides have been made by the young men over such a wide area. It has served as a community meeting place and a recreation center for all the borough. The Carlton Avenue Branch was established in 1902 and has been joyfully served by many of its leaders since that time. Among the members of its board of managers who served continuously since the branch was established and N. J. Johnson, Ellas Tlighman, F. H. Gilbert and R. I. Jackson. The present branch building at 405 Carlton avenue was erected in 1919. Membership and secretarial staff of the Carlton Avenue Branch have grown to 850 members and membership now is about 850. The staff has grown from two full-time workers in 1919 to five at present, while other employees have had to be added to meet the needs. Many clubs and societies have found the building to be a desirable place for the training of the church organization conducts its regular weekly service there. The summer is the most intensive time for the work among the boys. During the vacation period last year more than 10,000 individual swims were enclosed in the pool of the church. Scores of boys, unable to pay membership fees, have been included in this total. One of the major features of the work among the Negro youth of Brooklyn is Camp Carlton, at Staatsburg, N. Y., where a nine week's camp is held under the care of a group of leaders and 216 boys have attended Camp Carlton in a single season. In addition, each summer the branch co-operates with the student summer service group of the intercollegiate branch in New York City in maintaining a student for the life among the poverty-streken students of all racial types in New York. Another feature of the work among boys is the Junior HI-Y Club. the members of which have staged dramatic performances, aided in Thrift Week observance and formed a closely knit organization among themselves. Recently a member of the Senior Hi-Y Club, a similar organization, won a five-dollar gold piece as a prize in a literary contest the B.B. Ellis Elk His essay was on the life and works of Paul Lawrence Dunbar, famous Negro poet. The Carlton Avenue Branch seriously goes into the problem of getting employment for young Negroes, often quite difficult. Employers frequently have a misunderstanding, according to Mr. Comither, of the worked accommodations of comp. Negroes. McMullen uses unskilled or semi-skilled labo and a few for positions offering any future opportunity. Mr. Comither has been secretary of the branch for the past seven years. Although born at Catskill, N. Y., he was brought up in the vicinity of the Carlton Avenue Branch. After studying in the college and the university, he was about to accept a position in Alaska when the illness of his mother caused him to remain in Brooklyn and he accepted the assistant secretaryship of the Carlton Avenue Branch. He established the first licensed employment agency colored the colored associations of the Y. M. M. and secured some 9,000 positions up to the time he became executive secretary. "The average young colored man today is ambitious to get ahead and willing to work hard," said Mr. Comither. "Many are studying in night schools. We send many to the schools at Brooklyn Central and Bedford Y. M. C. A branches. The difficulty of part of it is that few positions other than peer, homestyle or elevator operator are open to these young men." The Carlton Avenue Branch is planning to enter wholeheartedly into the Seventy-fifth Anniversary Fund Campaign of the Brooklyn and Queens M. Y. M. C. A., which will be held from April 15 to 36. Carlton's Fund Campaign is $4,932, which will vary nearly free, building and Camp Carlton from all indebtedness. Teams are being organized rapidly for the campaign. The present officers of the branch are: Dr. Jesse E. Moorland, chairman of the board of managers; F. H. Gilbert, vice-chairman, and N. D. Johnson, recording secretary. Behind them are staff members are: Q. H. Vaughn, business secretary; E. B. Weatherless, service and activities secretary; H. J. Dangerfield, physical director, and A. F. Miller, boys' work secretary.

FOURTEEN Anti-Saloon Head Answers Whalen Says Commissioner Should Close Up 32,000 Commenting recently on the statement of Police Commissioner Whalen that there are 32,000 speakeasies in the City of New York, Dr. S. E. Nicholson, associate superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League of New York, asks Mr. Whalen why he doesn't "proceed to close" 200,000 speakeasies when he has counted. Why, except the failure of the Legislature to enact the Jenkins prohibition enforcement bills, which would have put power into the Commissioner's hands and that of his policemen to deal with the speakeasy situation? Mr. Nicholson continued by saying: "It is not a matter of need that Mr. Whalen asks the officer to himself to even ask the Legislature to provide a remedy for the situation about which he now complains. What is worse for him is that the solid vote of his party in the Assembly at Albany was cast in a way to prolong and intensify that situation. It is pure driving moneymaking, which they and their associates have zealously safeguarded against every attempt against to remedy. "Maybe there are 32,000 speakasies of the kind described by Mr. Wahlen and maybe not, but he ought to know that the amount of liquor dispensed through them all is only a moderate amount of what was sold prior to 1920 in the more than 8,000 licensed saloons, plus the thousands of speakasies that then existed in every form from the brothel to the walking distributor. "I condone neither the bootlegger nor the legislator who voted to prolong his existence, but then I am aware of the places where it does not belong instead of laying it upon liquor and liquor lawlessness where it does belong."

C., April 15.—The rate of expansion in elementary and secondary education of Negroes in public and private schools has been greater in the last nine years than in any like period of American history, according to a statement made public by the Department of the Interior last Saturday. A bulletin issued by the bureau of education of that department states that there were 2,218,312 Negro pupils reported in public schools in 18 Southern states in 1926. "Of this number," the bulletin states, "1,055,674 boys and 1,162,638 girls. The average daily attendance was 1,563,975. To instruct these children 47,594 teachers were employed, 38,942 women and 8,652 men. "While the large majority of schools reporting were public, there were 168 private schools with 3,722 teachers and 61,509 pupils. "Larges of the private secondary and higher schools for Negroes in 1925-26 contained 630,892 bound volumes; the grounds and buildings were valued at $41,044,777 as against $17,323,108 in 1916. "In the 425 public schools for colored pupils only there were 2,566 teachers and 98,705 colored pupils were enrolled in these and in other schools attended by colored pupils. "The teacher-training institutions for Negro students numbered 29, located in 17 Southern states and Pennsylvania. "The increasing growth of schools has made a corresponding demand for more and better trained teachers. This demand has caused increases in salaries and not yet equal the average of $1,277 paid both colored and white teachers throughout the United States." home of Mr. and Mrs. Decker, on Taft avenue, last week.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 17, 1929 --- Rutherford Malaria Attacked From Airplanes in Haiti PORT-AU-PRINCE, Hayti, April 13—Haiti is fighting malaria, one of its major medical problems, from the air. Twice the Marine Corps Observation Squadron has winged low over notorious mosquito areas, spraying larvae-infested poisons with a barrage of mixed paris green and lime. The success of both attacks was so marked that Commander Kent C. Melchorn, Medical Corps, United State Navy, who is director-general of the National Public Health Service, has detailed Leutenant-Commander Sterling S.

The mixture that proved so deadly to the mosquito larvae caused no damage to fish in the water or to the cattle that grazed on its shores. State Reduces Personal Taxation An amendment to the Personal Income Tax Law became effective upon the signing Friday by the Governor of a bill enacted by the recent Legislature increasing the personal exemption to $2,500 for single persons and $4,000 for married persons and heads of families.

The former requirement for the filing of returns in the event that the gross income exceeded $5,000, regardless of the amount of net income, was modified by placing the limitation at $6,500. In all cases where the net income was less than $2,500 or $4,000, as the case may be, no return need be filed, unless the gross income exceeds the limitation of $6,500. Under the provisions of the act the increased exemptions and limitations take effect immediately and apply to returns for any taxable year beginning on or after January 1, 1928. Employers are required to file information returns showing the amount of compensation paid to resident employees. If the amount thereof exceeded $2,500 to single persons or $4,000 to married persons.

Tuberculosis Deaths influenza on increase Tuberculosis deaths among the Negro residents of New York City are three times as large as among white residents in proportion to numbers, according to the statistics and estimates the Department of Health issued March 30. The bulletin suggests that this condition, together with the high infant death rate among Negroes, indicates the need for intensive health work, and pledges the co-operation of the Department in any such effort. Statistics cited indicate that the total number of deaths among Negroes has shown a steady increase, with a few recessions, in the city since 1910, whereas the white population has shown an opposite trend during the same period. In 1910 the total tuberculosis deaths among Negroes was 440, in 1928 it was 702; among the white population the 1910 total was 8,352, the 1928 total 3,934. The total white population has declined from 1.8 to 1.0, while the Negro rate has decreased only from 4.7 to 3.3. Small Investors Hear Financiers Robert T.

Wetmore Says They Were Very Discoureous at Moore Banquet. To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Dear Sir: On last Tuesday evening I attended the monster testimonial given to Mr. and Mrs. Fred R. Moore on the fifth anniversary of their wedding, and was delighted to see many prominent people of both sexes there, paying honor to Mr. Moore and his good wife. However, my evening was almost spoiled because of the following: There were some very rude white young men in charge of the cloak room, and they practically demanded 25 cents apiece for checking things, and had a very many scene with a prominent young colored man because he wanted to check his wife's small wrap with his hat and coat. I cannot understand why this very lucrative business should be turned over to two white men instead of some young colored men or some poor colored soldiers. As your paper is well known for the fight it makes or colored people, I think it might be worth white people should have the privateate at colored affairs, and if they want to go in have it why they should not be compelled to be more courteous to ladies and gentlemen. ```markdown ``` Singer Larry John. (Signor J. D. WETMORE. 1440 Broadway, New York City, April 11, 1929. Expressed by Other Editors Patronage in the South (From the New York World). It is announced that the Republican Party in the South will be reorganized by a committee of three selected by Mr. Hoover, and that these three will have something to say about Presidential patronage and its distribution. The chosen arbitrators are Porkeen General Brown, Presidential Secretary National, the ex-Representative, and James Francis Burke, General Counsel of the Republican National Committee. Mr. Hoover seems to be fond of triumvirates. He assented to the naming of State Chairman Machold, Original-Hoover-Mill Hill as a committee to handle New York Federal patronage. When President Obama applied, rejected that, lacking a Republican Senator, the Republican members of the House from New York would have to be consulted. Mr. Snell and his colleague, Mr. Parker, were appointed to represent the delegation. It is a case where two and three make five and mean one. Mr. Machold is the Chairman of the fiv. Southern patronage machine? Ordinarily the Postmaster-General is the President's Wicked Partner, the political specialist of each succeeding administration. But it is said that Mr. Brown's patronage will be mainly that of his own department and that Mr. Newton will handle all the rest; also the Gen. Clinton jobs. He farmed out the Republican Representatives from the South, who are not so very numerous. With all this elaborate strategy the Republican organization in the Southern States should soon be as pure as water and as good as asphalt. The Republican Federal job upon rough-hewn men in politics is well known.

The point brought out is the fact that life insurance is its ministering to economic needs of individuals, lifts itself into the plane of the nation's most potent financial, social and economic institution. The latest publication in Negro Life insurance circles is the Necro Underwriter, a monthly magazine published in Cincinnati. Know New York State Forty per cent of all the inhabitants of the United States live within 600 miles of the center of New York, and more than 13 per cent of the country's total Little Falls, N. Y., is the first city in the State to undertake municipal forest management for protected areas and will be scientifically cut and rehabilitated to provide a continuous yield. A new law in New York state permits all woodlands with leaf and arrows. Herbaceous soil could be done only with a gun shot of some length or by trapping. Another human factor is the New York city in 1954 by her former pet, who improved the appropriate property by also made the plot longer for the purpose. Nearly one-fourth of all woodland and published matter in the United States is proscribed in New York State. The Emperor State has become an electrical manufacturer in the yearly output valued at $200 million and a posted $24.000 workers. HOME OWNERS-REAL ESTATE-BUILDERS PAGE Western Union to Undertake Unusual Cable Expedition in Gulf of Mexico Will Divert Existing Cable, Lay New Shore Ends and Salvage Cable Already Laid in One of Most Unusual Cable-Laying Jobs One of the most unusual expeditions in the annals of submarine cables is being undertaken by the Western Union cable ship Lord Kelvin in the Gulf of Mexico. The entire cable system of the Mexican Telegraph Company, which is operated by the Western Union Telegraph Company, is undergoing a complete rearrangement, according to an announcement made yesterday by officials of the company. Not only is the Lord Kelvin laying new shore ends of ocean cable at both Galveston and Vera Cruz, but a submarine cable which now terminates at Morgan City, Louisiana, will be diverted to terminate at Galveston. APARTMENTS MOVED $3 TO $4 ER ROOM PIANOS EXTRA TRUNKS MOVED FROM $1.00 UP NO JOB TOO SMALL NO JOB TOO LARGE DAILY TRIPS TO RAILROA STATION AND STEAMSHIP PIERS Why Not Have a Responsible Firm Remove Your Furniture for the Same Price? The work started several days ago, and will cost upwards of half a million dollars, officials of the Western Union said. It will include the laying of new shore ends of the cable now running between Galveston and Vera Cruz. Probably the most unusual part of the expedition will be the recovering of a large part of the 1921 Morgan City-Vers Cruz cable. Although this cable has been on the bed of the ocean for almost eight years, the engineers expect to find it in perfect condition and will use the salvaged portion for other purposes. ```markdown ``` Many cables have been laid in tropical seas, but it is seldom that cable is salvaged from the bottom of the ocean, and it is also infrequent for a cable to be diverted from one terminus to another. The Gulf expedition calls for a large amount of engineering skill and will result not only in decreased operating and maintenance costs, but in a speedier cable service between this country and Mexico. The complete revamping of the Mexican cables in this section is seen in some quarters as an indication of the manner in which Mexico has forged ahead commercially in recent years and is viewed by students of the economic situation of that country as an indication of the greater economic and industrial stability of Mexico. It is also believed that the improved cable service between the countris will stimulate their friendly relations. Two Boys,16,17 Held as Bandits One Implicated in Slaying of Man in 132d One of two youths arraigned on a robbery charge admitted being implicated in the unsolved slaying of James Williams, who was recently shot to death at his home, 81 West 122d street, it was revealed recently in Heights Court before Magistrate Dodge. The young prisoners were Wilfred Rose, 17, 303 West 144th street, who pleaded guilty to a number of holdups, and Edward Willie, 16, 192 West 134th street, who pleaded not guilty. Both youths were held without bail for the Grand Jury. The specific complaint against them was that of holding up Thomas E. Floyd, 18, a drug clerk, 305 West 144th street, at the point of a gun, and taking a $30 watch from him in the hallway of 44 Bradhurst avenue. Rose confessed ownership of the revolver, which was found in the possession of Willie at the time of their arrest by Patrolman Branch of the West 135th street station. Implicated in Murder. The court received a surprise when Rose calmly told of the shooting of Williams, but he denied taking any part in it. He said that Williams was accidentally shot by one George Lewis, a pal. Rose also confessed several stick- CHAS.

PRITCHARD of North Carolina, who refused to occupy the office assigned him because it adjoined that of Congressman DePriest, has been put to shame by Congressman Fiorello LaGuardia of New York. In a telegram to Speaker Longworth Mr. LaGuardia asked that Mr. DePriest he assigned to an office next his own. THUS AN OLD DRAMA repeats itself. About fifty years ago a Negro, Blanche K. Bruce, was elected to the United States Senate. It was the custom, when a new Senator was presented, for an older Senator to escort him down the aisle of the Senate chamber. Neither Senator Bruce's Mississippi colleague nor any other Senator showed a willingness to escort him. Then the famous Roscoe Conkling, Senator from New York, stepped forth and escorted Senator Bruce. The grateful Bruce then said that if he should ever have a male child he would name him after Roscoe Conklin. He carried out his promise and other Negroes followed his example. This accounts for the number of Roscoes in the Negro race. Twenty years hence we may have a number of young Negro men reveling in the name of Fiorello.

If this were true, one would expect Southern white women to be the last to protest against it. Instead of that they are among the first. Women's committees on race relations in every Southern state but Florida have issued a pamphlet denouncing lynching. They have declared themselves against all mob violence by any race for any crime, against the claim that lynching is necessary for the protection of white womanhood, and against a double standard of morals which tends toward amalgamation of the races and threatens racial integrity. THE SOUTHERN WOMEN are no fools—women seldom are in sexual matters. They know that one of the main objects of lynching is so to subjugate and terrorize the Negro that the white man may debauch Negro women with impunity. They know that even if every Negro ever lynched had been guilty of assaulting white women, the total of such assaults would be far, far below the number of assaults by white men on Negro women. They have observed the brutalizing effect of such conduct upon the characcters of white men; they have seen their men fall behind in business, government, art, science and general culture while the rest of the country and the world was marching forward. THEY HAVE FELT the effect of sex brutality upon their homes, their own happiness and the happiness of their children. With their age-old intuition they see the storm-clouds of retribution slowly gathering in the distance, and they shiver as they remember the words of the prophet: "Woe unto the world because of offenses, for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh." Waterworks and Bloodworks SAY that figures cannot lie. Mathematical figures, not feministical figures can and do the feminine figure in the daydustles. Mathematical figures of thing you wish them to, as comedians, constantly demonize DING to mere figures the A Haiti has been a wonderful sport issued by the Engineer works there is very convincing. THEY SAY that figures cannot lie. The reference is to mathematical figures, not feminine figures. But mathematical figures can and do lie quite as much as the feminine figure in the days of pads, hoops and bustles. Mathematical figures can be made to do anything you wish them to, as Miller and Lyles, the comedians, constantly demonstrate. ACCORDING to mere figures the American occupation of Haiti has been a wonderful success. The annual report issued by the Engineer in Chief of Public Works there is very convincing to those Americans who measure human progress by numbers and machinery. This report mentions 556 projects under way in 1928, of which 273 were for new constructions and 283 for repairs and maintenance, involving a total expenditure of $2,311,196. A new Palace of Justice has been built, also Gov- --- --- --- --- -:- A Graduate in the Orient -:- -:- "Amalgamation Inevitable" ernment warehouses, an extension to the agricultural college, and four new bridges and waterworks for ten cities. Roads have been repaired and kept in order, and the telegraph and telephone service shows an increase of twenty per cent in revenues and twenty-nine per cent in subscribers. The National Railroad Company shows a net profit of $12,546, and the Government has paid $203,448 for interest and amortization of railroad bonds. ALL THIS IS THE AMERICAN WAY of saying "Hallelujah!" Stocks, dollars, buildings, bridges, electricity, roads, dollars, profits—nothing else matters as long as these material things are accomplished. With such ineffable blessings, why should the Haitian people complain about such little things as loss of liberty? What does it matter if a drunken American woman drives her automobile into a helpless crowd of Haitian women and children? When bridges are being built for you, why object when the marines shoot your brother down because he resents being called a nigger? When waterworks are being constructed, why demur at a few bloodworks? PROF. GEORGE WILLIAM COOK, alumni secretary of Howard University in Washington, in the regular course of duty sent a formal request to Jenichiro Oyabi, Tokio, Japan, requesting subscription to the Alumni Journal. Mr. Oyabi is a graduate of Howard University, class of 1894, who immediately upon graduation returned to his native country, where he has been engaged in educational and literary work ever since. In 1866 his slim mater conferred upon him the degree of master of arts. Mr. Oyabl's educational work has been among the Alno people, the aborigines of Japan. A recent issue of the Japan Advertiser contains an indulgence of two of his books, one of which has attained its fifteenth edition and the other its sixth. His thesis is to show that the Japanese race is derived from the lost tribes of Israel. His dissensions give him rank among the noted scholars of Japan. His writings contain a lease is not to exploit the scholarship and learned repute of this Oriental son of Howard, but to set forth his simple faith and devout spirit. His letter reads: "When I first met with Dr. Rankin (then president of Howard University) he told me to read Proverbs, 22:1 "A good richness, and be chosen than great riches, and be favored rather than silver and gold." He goes on to describe his fame as a scholar and his lack of success from a momentary point of view. The letter concludes with emphasis upon his ideal—I hope you will understand my standpoint of life, and my dear Dr. Rankin's golden teaching from the Bible." REGARDING my recent article on so-called amalgamation and intermarriage a white student of the University of Pennsylvania takes issue in The Philadelphia Tribune with a statement I made to the effect that so-called intermarriage will not take place until the Caucasian is better informed about the Negro. He says: "I question his statement that 'The great and at present insurmountable obstacle to so-called intermarriage is the attitude of white people—an attitude that springs from an almost incredible ignorance about the Negro's accomplishments and his capabilities on the island and an exaggeration about his vices and his shortcomings on the other." The writer goes on to say: "Before intermarriage can solve the race problem there must first be a desire on the part of both races to intermarry." That this is so is self-evident, and I can see in no way how it comes merely from my statement. Desire comes merely from my statement, information, as a result of the widening of knowledge, hence the art of advertising. For instance, the great difference between the attitude of the South African Negro of sixty years ago and the South African Negro of today regarding the value of the diamond. I am not a bright pebble fit for children to play with. Then the European came, taught him its value, and to day his desire for it is almost as strong as the European's. I could go on to multiply by the hundreds instances of how desire arose as the result of knowledge and increased information. I did not say that intermarriage will intermarry the race problem." I did say, however, that I believe that a final blending When this letter fell under my eye I could not help reflecting deeply upon the old idea of education as contrasted with the new. Dr. Rankin represented the old New England school of pedagogy, which insisted, in and out of season, upon the development of character through moral maxims and Bible in the right textbook in the concern was to a rather than to intelligence. The they worked was seed sown took sprung into ripen It is easy to in sloppable mind. PETER B. - Kelly Miller - religious instruction. I recall on one occasion he stoutly upbraided the dean because he was indisposed to the work of teaching for a course in the Bible. With no little heat of feeling he reminded the hesitant dean that he was not willing to jeopardize the salvation of the students souls to accommodate them. The Christian missionaries came down from the North, with the An Answer by J. A. ROGERS through race intermixing was inevitable, and gave three reasons: the psychologic, the historic and the economic. Apparently, as the result of the articles, this white student (unnamed) took an interesting step. However, he submitted questionnaires to 86 male females. He found that none of them would be willing to marry a full-blooded Negro, while five would "perhaps" marry a white person of Negro ancestry. Now it must be noted that there is a vast difference between the terms "intermarriage and racial blending." Marriages or intermarriage (let those who differ between the terms do so, I don't) is a social and largely artificial affair—an affair that is comparatively recent as history goes on, and which accumulates but discredits with time, and will probably die out. Race-mixing, on the other hand, is a basic principle of the perpetuation of the human race. From time immemorial race-mixing has gone on without marriage or very little of it. A large proportion of the so-called Negroes in America have a strain of Caucasian, while a large or larger proportion of Southern whites have a strain of Negro. All without marriage! The vastly more important question for the student to have asked his 66 college would have been then: "Would you have sex relations with a Negro?" In that case I am most firmly convinced from a very wide experience that the ratio would be reversed, if not with their lips, at least with their innest desires. The percentage of white Americans who would not cohabit with a colored woman, I have reason to believe, is very, very small. It is as small as the percentage who would marry a Negro. It will at least be admitted that children outside of the marriage relation. A similar question was also submitted to 58 students of Lincoln Bible in the right hand and the textbook in the left. Their chief concern was to inculcate character rather than to impart technical intelligence. The soil upon which they worked was virgin soil. The soil was the root and spring into ripened fruit. It is easy to imagine the impressionable mind of young Oyabl, fresh from the hand of the missionary to Japan, as it comes into first contact with the genial and kindly preceptor in another land. What was true of Oyabl was equally true of the thousands of black boys from the farms when they were in touch with the good missionary preceptors from the North. Today religious instruction has been replaced by the technicalities of modern pedagogy. Our children are much more efficiently taught in the letter, but what about the technicalities of the effect upon the character of the generation now coming into control of affairs? With them will silver and gold outweigh loving favor? Cannot our youth in America learn valuable lessons from Oyabi, the Oriental, whose simple not been misled by the ingenious phantom of silver and gold? I read with curious interest the decision of the students in Lincoln University against Negro teachers for Negro youth. These young people were doubtless impelled by force and influences which they did not understand. Lincoln University has been under the uninterrupted tuition of the missionary type. The moral and religious currents have been made to play upon them without cessation. The faculty was carefully selected for this attitude. These young people have been indoctrinated in the missionary type of mission sphere. They may be pitied, if not blamed, for self-stultification, in declaring against the competence of their own race. There is University, with the result that 24 said that they would be willing to marry white, while 30 said "No." "We see in the two answers," deduces the white student, "rather obvious situations, namely that the white student is married to the whites that intermarry, and second that each person, as an — J. A. Rogers — average, tended to conform more readily to marriage within his own group type, not as a matter of interface friction, but rather a conformity to past customs and group patterns." Now, if instead of so-called Negroes and whites, one takes two groups of whites, one is likely to be willing to marry members of the proportion of members of so-called royal family who would be willing to marry members of a lower caste, though of the same color? And how many of the lower caste would be willing to marry into a royal family? Marriage being a social proposition, a recognition of equality, as was said, the proportion of the lower caste who would be willing to marry royalty would be as in the case of the Latin students, who, in the eyes of the majority of Americans, belong to the lower caste. But the higher castes, whether they be Negroes or whites, usually go for their sex pleasures to the lower castes, while they marry in their own caste. And this is why, even though marriage has thoroughly discredited itself in my shall oppose laws forbiding citizens to marry on account of color. I know that it is but one of ten thousand similar laws that, have been passed by whites against other whites in the past, by Hindus against their fellow Hindus, by Africans against Africans, and almost any people that one may name. Some day I shall give a partial list of some of them dating from the time of the plebeians of ancient Rome. Anti-marriage laws are but one of the weapons used by the man on top for robbing and exploiting the man below. I oppose them on sociologic principles. I oppose SPECIAL ARTICLES implied an unconscious lack of self-respect. If the high and holy pretension of Lincoln, Howard, Atlanta, Fisk, et al, in their earlier day could be perpetuated and brought forward, there would indeed be no need of discussing the race identity of instructors or instructed. In the older brother instructing the younger brother the way in which he should go. But, unfortunately, race prejudice has fixed a social gulf across which neither the one nor the other is free to pass. The white teacher must teach the Negro pupil to live a life different from his own. He durst not say that "where I am, there ye shall be also"; but, rather, "Where I go you cannot follow." Can't you teach a child to live the life of Jourry? The white teacher of Negro youth labors under the heavy handicap of racial separation. On the other hand, "the Negro preceptor, cut off from touch with the fountain-head from which all blessings flow, may experience handicaps of another character. Neither method, when used exclusively, is ideal. Here, as elsewhere, truth lies in the medium. But, back to Oyabi. Here was a Japanese young man, became insolent in his life's task by the kindly and paternal tuition of a white missionary in a land foreign to his own. He caught quickly the suggestion of service and selflessness which followed him the rest of his life. With this single note he crossed the seas and made a brilliant career away from the sordid itch for wealth. If we could—I fear we can't—turn back the flight of time and return to the simple moral tuition of the good missionary. If it might not be better for us all. After experiencing the delusive quest of silver and gold, may we not, after all, return to the conclusion that Oyabi has chosen the better part. them because they are unjust. Color is immaterial. I feel just the same about laws barring Jews. The white American being as a mass the explorer of the Negro, it is not to be expected that those white students would have given a different answer. The man on top of the hill and there is a human, but I do blame the man below when he shows so little light, as do Negroes. As to the Negro students who said they would not marry a white woman, it is interesting to know just what percentage of them would really shun sex relation with a white woman, outside of marriage. The ratio, I am convinced, would perhaps be even smaller than among the whites. Lower castes, regardless of color, even while very desirous sex association with white women, would watch their step" because of the economic and other troubles that the upper have the power of inflicting on them. It is about time that the younger Negroes, and younger whites, too, cast off silly color sentiment and begin to reason logically. For instance, a certain noted Negro, writing on intermarriage recently, asked a question to the effect: What respect can Negroes expect of white people should it be known that Negroes are seeking to have themselves made over in the image of white men, that is, by marrying them. What, then, of the reverse question: What respect can white people expect of Negroes when it is known that white people are seeking to have themselves made over in the image of Negroes, by having sex relations with them, outside of marriage? For it is the white man who began race-mixing; it is the white man who, from the days of slavery until now, leaves his white wife, of whom he pretends to be so proud, to seek out the despised Negro woman; it is the white man who goes to every part of the world seeking out the darker woman. And the white woman is following in his steps. It is this sort of reasoning that muddles the question. The fact is that both Caucasian and Caucasianized Negroes are not to blame. They are only following certain perfectly natural laws. If I am convinced of one fact it is this: Human beings are as truly and as inexorably human beings under their skins as they are under their clothes and their caste systems. I, however, did not arrive at this reasoning by indulging in sentiment. I was reared in a house where lighter-skimmed, so-called Keesers are taught to believe themselves superior to darker-skinned ones, hence it was only by long study and observation, and above all with the desire to be just to all men, that I arrived at this conclusion. If the possession of color prejudice is an accomplishment, how interesting might it be to some whites to know that others they despise, namely, certain near-whitees, possess this valuable quality in stronger degree than they do? Of course, I know that my method of reasoning is at least a century ahead. But some must reason ahead in order that justice may Keeping Fit A Health Column dedicated to the memory of Dr. E.

TUBERCULOSIS is a disse lungs, or, less commonly minute microscopic ge These germs usually enter the most cases disease is not cause they may and often do lie in years, or even for a whole life TUBERCULOSIS is a disease caused by the growth in the lungs, or less commonly in other parts of the body, of a minute microscopic germ called the tubercle bacillus. These germs usually enter the body in early childhood, but in most cases disease is not caused by them at this time. Indeed, they may and often do lie inactive in the tissues for many years, or even for a whole lifetime. When the germ enters the body and remains there, infection is said to have taken place; and when the germ remains alive in the body or causes the symptoms of the disease, the individual is said to have a latent infection. Infection does not occur after one exposure, as in an acute disease such as smallpox or measles, but gradually after repeated exposures. In life, usually between 20 and 40, when the strain of work is hardest and when resisting power is lowered, this latent infection may become active and the patient, who, while infected, has hitherto been well, now becomes actually sick. The process has led to good health regained. Often we give a history of several unrecognized attacks of tuberculosis, at shorter or longer intervals, which have been overcome by improved conditions of living. If such attacks are not recognized and a or frequently repeated pregnancies, are most common depressing factors which, by weakening the system, wake up the infection that has hitherto been in check by the resisting power of the healthy body. If, however, before the trouble has gone too far, the condition is recognized, and the harmful influences are removed and the vitality and resisting power of the body are restored, the activity of the germ can be checked, the process has been halted, and good health regained.

THE PEDRO GORINO. By Captain Harry Dean, assisted by Sterling North, Houghton Mifflin Co., New York. Price $3.50. THIS column has always combated the theory of the modern Negro novelist—that to be interesting a Negro man or woman must be stupid or vicious. The Negro writer really knows better; he knows that he is heaping filth on his race to please a white public, but he will not admit it. He takes refuge in the argument that the material of a novel does not matter so long as it is treated artistically. This argument is sound in a general sense, but it can be carried too far. Your dinner guests do not wish to eat the contents of your garbage pail, no matter how artistically they may have been cooked. Even Oscar Wilde, whose putridly runs like a stench through modern literature, knew better than that; his plays are as airy and graceful as Queen Anne's. Even Zola, called the hog of naturalism, knew that Frenchmen were not composed entirely of carrion. But our Negro authors write it in there as a woman for his whole life. We Africa there awoke in his boyish brain the dream of a great Ethiopian empire, and this dream was that he for his whole life was a very young man when on a visit to Norway he bought a fast sailing ship named Pellar Gurl. Nor have they the excuse of the white author who deals in the dirt of his people. He can say that his people have been idealized, romantically and culturally twenty centuries till there is nothing new to write about them; that all the higher material has been used up and there is nothing left but dirt. The Negro writer has no literature, a virgin field, for literature, a virgin field, for literature. Such a Negro is Captain Harry Dean, whose book, "The Pedro Gorino," has been published by the Houghton Mifflin Company. No man's life and ancestry could be more filled with romance, poetry and adventure. The Captain Dean student at University of Chicago, he has put his adventures in a book which is more exciting than a Conrad novel. There is too much in the book for a review to do it justice; any literary chit-chat about form and style and treatment would be cheap and childish before the graduation of its students be like a sparrow poking at a lion. Imagine a man descended from a line of African kings, without a drop of white blood in him. Imagine one of his ancestors sailing to South Carolina in 1815, invading a plantation, burning the slave huts, escaping with the slaves, sailing them back to Africa and returning to the plantation, they founded the colony that became the country of Liberia. In 1864 Harry Dean was born into this bold family. They were daring sea-captains, straight. stern black men who owned their ships and commanded the crews in which men of all races were glad to serve. At the age of 15 Harry Dean had been an uncle's sailing ship. He tells a tale of this trip that makes one's mouth water. His uncle was a friend of King Kalaua of Hawaii, and when the ship reached Honolulu his uncle and the king had a great drinking bout on champagne. They went arm in arm from tavern to tavern, the king carrying an extra bottle to keep them wet during the messages from one saloon to another. They enjoyed joy of living. When they cried frenzied they lay right down in the middle of the dirt road till somebody would think of a tavern they had come into its own. American anti-marriage laws have but one purpose: The keeping down of the weaker group to a stage where it can be sexually and economically exploited. These laws do not preclude them from making them they make it easier.

People often give a history of several unrecognized attacks of tuberculosis, at shorter or longer intervals, which have been overcome by improved conditions of living. If such attacks are not recognized and a proper change made in bad habits or surroundings, each one gets a little more severe than the last, until finally the patient becomes dangerously ill, if not hopelessly ill.

In to cat the contents of your artistically they may have been not visited, then up they would jump and go to it. Lord, Lord, what days! They visited every country in the world, and young Harry became a sailor for life. When he first saw Africa there awoke in his boyish brain the dream of a great Ethiopian empire, and this dream was the guide for his whole life. He was a very young man when on a sailing ship named Pellar Gurk after the Norwegian Joan of Arc the sailor who repainted the name on the ship corrupted it to Pedro Gorino. Then with a Norwegian crew Dean sailed down to Africa like a black Viking. Later he plied his ship between points on the African coast, with cargoes of various kinds. More than ever his great dream of a Negro empire possessed him. Here he was dreaming of dreaming I rebuilt the Ethiopian Empire I re-annualized Africa, for the Africans. captured Africa for the Africans. A noble dream! Alas, he had reckoned without the power of England, the treachery of the Boers, the wolfs' rapacity of imperialism, the ravage of the Rhodes, but Captain Dean sees him as an unscrupulous hound, with the greed of a hog and the cruelty of a tiger, a devil to whom a native life meant nothing. The English soon began to suspect Captain Dean; they thought that the United States Government. They hounded him every way they could. They had him thrown overboard in his sleep one dark night, and only by a miracle he reached the shore. They never rested till they succeeded driving him out of Africa driving him out of English and the Boers, he says that one set is as dirty as the other. Any Negro man who reads this book without a thrill is neither a man nor a Negro.

Price of Forgetting YOU are the price of forgetting My unhappiness— Hold it not against me, but If life were not so hard For me to live—if I were not so hungry. I never would have Loved you.
