Wyche's two brothers are also employed by the same company, Luke as a foreman of lock tenders and overseer for the union, and Haywood as a motorman on the dirt train. All were working in the same tunnel when the accident occurred which caused Howard's death on April 15. The New York Building. Congress Award was given Luke recently for his proficient service in his very dangerous occupation.
Dollars Against Lives.
Luke said Monday that the law requires that at certain distances along the railroad in the tunnel derails are to be left open at all times. As the cars proceed downward to the mouth of the tunnel a workman closes each switch to allow the cars to pass. If the brakes should fall or some other accident happen, the cars would be derailed before they reached the pressure doors.
In this instance, however, Luke swears that all the derails had been closed and spilled, so as to save time—and time is money. If the company had obeyed the law his brother would still be alive, he said.
Luke said that when he went to see U. S. Arnold, white, of the company's insurance department at 1440 Broadway, he was offered only $200 for his brother's funeral expenses, which were actually $713.60, plus railroad expenses to Virginia of $222. He refused the company's offer and consulted H. F. Walsh, white, the general manager, whom he says told him to go back and explain the matter again to Mr. Arnold.
Luke said he would start a suit against the company to recover damages.
Duncan Brothers' Masterpiece.
At first it was thought impossible to prepare Howard's body so that it could be viewed at the funeral. Funeral arrangements were made with Duncan Brothers. 2303 Seventh avenue. After fourteen hours they produced a masterpiece in demi-surgery by modeling the head of the deceased to its natural thickness. Over 100 patients who viewed the man, and Howard's brothers, were all astonished at the feat. "It was the most difficult work of my entire experience," said Mr. Duncan.
perpetuer, senior.
Funeral services were held at the Mount Moriah Baptist Church In West 134th street near Lenox avenue, the Rev. Mr. Givens, pastor, officiating, on Thursday evening.
Brother Elks from Monarch Lodge 45 were also in attendance.
The body was then shipped to Virginia for burial. Besides his two brothers. Howard is survived by his aged mother and several cousins.

Veterans' Body Seeks to Have New Subway Station Named for War Hero
Transit Officials Asked to Make Designation in Honor of Private Dorrance Brooks, Who Gave Life in France With Old Fifteenth
With the St. Nicholas avenue subway rapidly nearing completion and expected to be thrown open in 1930, the Board of Transportation and the Transit Commission were asked Thursday to name the 135th street station in honor of Private Dorrance Brooks, first member of the old Fifteenth Regiment to give his life in France during the late war.
The Dorrance Brooks Post of Veterans of Foreign Wars forwarded the request to transportation officials. The name would be a logical one, it was pointed out by Lleut. Frank E. Spencer, adjutant, who heads the committee. The station will extend from 135th street to 137th street on St. Nicholas avenue, terminating at its northern end in Dorrance Brooks square.
The square was named after the war hero in 1923 by an ordinance of the Board of Aldermen. John William Smith, attorney, then an alderman, was largely responsible for the city's recognition of the service rendered by the regiment now known as the 369th. The weekly press and numerous citizens added him and the veterans' body.
Despite its official designation, the square is seldom called by name. The Commissioner of Parks has recently been asked to approve a city appropriation for a granite base for a 155 mm. German howitzer to be placed in the square. The gun was given the post by the War Department. It will be placed on view temporarily on Memorial Day, May 30.
Samuel M. Falde is commander of the veterans' organization. The post has a membership of 200.

Each of them was convicted and sentenced to 100 days in the workhouse on charges of conducting a disorderly house in 1927.
Epstein said that he called at the women's home on April 17, at which time they purchased a piece of jewelry, paid a deposit and told him to return Saturday. When he
Real Estate Man Wins Point in Medical Case
His trial on charges of practicing medicine without a license again delayed by unreadiness of the Attorney General's office, John Sydney de Bourg, 75-year-old real estate salesman, 56 West 126th street, took charge of his own defense Friday in Special Sessions and moved for dismissal.
Justice Salomon reset the case for May 10 and promised quashing of the charges if the prosecution is not ready then. The aged man was arrested Jan. 29 by Officer John E. Roberts of the Sixth Division when he allegedly sold the officer a bottle of medicine for $2.
The court also set May 17 for trial of Mrs. Anna Battice, 40, 242 Seventh avenue, on charges of violating the medical practice act. Roberts accused the woman of prescribing treatment for him Feb. 22 and accepting a fee for an examination.
Fatally Stabbed
Abraham McMullen, 536 Broadway, Brooklyn, was fatally stabbed Saturday during an altercation with an unidentified man in front of No. 8 Throop avenue. He died a few minutes after he was taken to Beth Moses Hospital.
THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News
Dr. Dublin Believes Tuberculosis Conquerable
"The time has, in fact, arrived when we may look forward to the virtual elimination of tuberculosis as a major problem in public health," declares Dr. Louis I. Dublin, writing in the April Harper's Magazine. Dr. Dublin stresses the different rates for the disease among the various races in the United States, saying: "The highest rates are found to occur among our Negroes, among our native Indians, and among the Asiatics, especially the Chinese living in our cities. Among the whites the highest rates occur among those born in Germany, Great Britain and Ireland. The native whites, on the whole, present an intermediate position. The lowest rates are found to occur among those of Italian and Jewish extraction." Dr. Dublin asserts his belief that the racial differences in rates are not due to innate disposition, but rather to the habits of living, occupations and economic status of the people involved.

Epstein said that he called at the women's home on April 17, at which time they purchased a piece of jewelry, paid a deposit and told him to return Saturday. When he kept the appointment the two women and four others set upon him, beat him and robbed him of $27 cash and several yellow metal watches valued at $213, Epstein said. Police Sergeant Battle and Detective Joe Brown visited the apartment Sunday night and found everything packed, ready to move out. Only the two women were apprehended. Thomas Greene, 24, 129 West 132d street; Mary Jones, 23, and Mamie Davis, 26, 196 Edgecombe avenue, were later apprehended and arraigned on Monday also.

Perry W. Howard Again Wins Case
Mississippi Committeeman Freed by Jury in Patronage Trial
MERIDIAN, Miss., April 21—Perry W. Howard scored his second victory over charges of patronage here Friday when a jury acquitted him and three others indicted on similar charges. Verdicts of acquittal were for James G. Buchanan, white, who was charged with buying a United States marshal's position from Howard, and for George F. McClelland, white, and Ed Patton, who were named as gobetweens. Judge Edwin R. Holmes ordered the jury to exonerate Patton because of insufficient evidence. The former Assistant Attorney General and Mississippi Republican National Committee was freed of similar charges at Jackson last December. Mr. Howard was relieved of his post last year pending the outcome of charges and it is believed that friends will ask his restatement now that his name stands cleared.
Meanwhile administration leaders were busy in Washington formulating plans for the distribution of, G. O. P. patronage. The Florida and Georgia patronage organizations are said to be effecting new plans for giving out Federal appointments. No changes are believed imminent for Mississippi.

SEARS, ROEBUCK WILL NOT FINANCE NEGRO HOME BUYERS HERE
Mail Order Concern Headed by Julius Rosenwald, Noted Philanthropist, Draws Color Line in Attractive Plan for Sale of Ready-Cut Houses
Sears, Roebuck & Company, the largest mall order concern in the United States, whose guiding genius is none other than Julius Rosenwald, a philanthropist, who has donated several millions of dollars to Negro schools and colleges, Y. M. and Y. W. C. A.'s, draws the color line on Negroes who seek to purchase ready-cut homes from that company through the build-
Brooklyn Attorney To Face Bar Ass'n
Samuel F. Edmead's Part in Estate's Disposal Under Investigation
From all indications Attorney Samuel F. Edmead will again be brought up on charges by the Brooklyn Bar Association, as a result of a decision handed down by the Appellate Division a few days ago. Surrogate Wingate's decision holding him in contempt of court for failing to turn over the more than $8,000 assets of the estate of the late Mrs. Hannah Taylor was affirmed by the high court, which also directed that the Bar Association "take appropriate action."
The surrogate has also presented the case of Mr. Edmead to District Attorney Dodd for action.
Mrs. Taylor's alleged will, made after it was stated by her heirs that she was too feeble to make one, was invalidated by the surrogate. It was then discovered that some $8,000 of the estate funds has passed into other hands.
This led to Wiley G. Overton, the well-known undertaker, who was executor, and Edmead, his attorney, being held in contempt of court by Surrogate Wingate.
Overton, who for years had employed white lawyers, took his case to Attorney Rufus L. Perry, and through Perry's efforts the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court declared Overton not in contempt of court. This was several weeks ago
Overton says that Attorney Edmend directed him to make out some deeds in blank. He did so. With these blank deeds the surrogate, according to the record, learned that Edmend had sold the Taylor home and had used the money.
HOMICIDE COURT STAYS
HEARING IN STABBING
Action of the Homicide Court in hearing death charges against Fred Flood, 28. 304 West 134th street, was delayed Monday when the case was adjourned to May 9. Flood is accused of stabbing his estranged wife, Mrs. Lottie Flood, 21. 526 Lenox avenue, on Lenox avenue two weeks ago. He was first charged with felonious assault, but the woman died within a few hours at Harlem Hospital.
ing and loan department
No matter how good the financial standing of the prospective home builder, may be, no matter what his income, if he is a Negro, Sears, Roebuck will not finance his home, despite the fact 2,200 such homes have been sold and erected in Greater New York territory.
Policy & Surprise.
Information that Mr. Rosenwald's firm discriminates against Negroes will come as a distinct surprise. His philanthropic activities among Negroes are probably the most widely known of any capitalist in the country.
The Sears, Roebuck catalogue is an integral part of nearly Negro household in the rural sections of the South. From it he purchases everything from a toothpick to a furnace. The total amount of money Negroes spend with the famous mail order concern annually would run into a huge sum.
Yet the same safeguards deemed necessary to the financing of homes for white people are insufficient for the financing of homes for colored people.
Has Donated Millions
This policy becomes even more inconsistent when contrasted with Mr. Rosenwald's philanthropies for the benefit of Negroes.
In 1911 he agreed to give $25,000 toward the erection of Y. M. C. A.'s for Negroes provided $75,000 was raised by other subscriptions, and these donations are responsible for nearly all of the Y. M. C. A. buildings erected for Negroes since that time.
He gave $25,000 towards the Y. M. C. A. buildings in Harlem and Philadelphia.
Up to 1917 the Julius Rosenwald Fund had contributed $889,379 for "charitable, scientific, educational and religious purposes" among Negroes, and up to 1924 he had expended nearly two million dollars toward the erection of rural schools for Negroes in the South.
Donations to Negro projects have continued up to the present time, and last year Mr. Rosenwald was awarded the Harmon Medal for his contributions to the betterment of race relationships in the United States.
Salesman Anologetic.
The injustice of such an arrangement seems to be realized by the men in the company's New York office at 115 Fifth avenue, I. K. Weed, white, one of the pleasant salesman to whom one is referred when inquiring about the plan, said in an interview Friday that, if it were up to the managers of the New York office, colored people would be allowed the same benefits of the plan as whites. Mr. Weed was plainly embarrassed by the reporter's candid questioning. He said, "I'm letting you down as easily as I can, without hurting your feelings."
Before branching the color question, the writer was given a catalogue describing the Sears, Roebuck "Honor Bilt Modern Homes." and their plan of financing, and was told to read every word of it and return with the proper documents from a building and loan association, prepared to pay cash.
Must Pay Cash
Mr. Weed explained that the Jim-Crow order came directly from their Chicago office. Colored people, he said, can only purchase the "Ready Cut" homes by paying cash in full, or by an arrangement with a bank or a building and loan association, but not with their own financing department. If you are white you may purchase a Sears, Roebuck ready-cut home by making a small down payment and receiving a loan from the Sears, Roebuck Building and Loan Department sufficient to cover all necessary charges involved in completing the building. Interest, mortgages, taxes,

The exact amount of the reward was announced Thursday night by Mrs. Lovie M. (not Louise B.) Garey, mother of Mrs. Williams, in an exclusive interview with a reporter for The Amsterdam News, Mrs. Garey said that she will pay $500 cash to the person or persons giving reliable and serviceable information leading to the recovery of her daughter, dead or alive. Mrs. Williams has been missing since the night of March 21.
Argument Preceded Disappearance
During the interview, Mrs. Garey hinted that her daughter probably had an argument with the person or persons whom she believes responsible for her disappearance. However, Mrs. Garey would not definitely commit herself on this point and declined to name the person.
Three theories were advanced regarding the cause of the disappearance, namely: kldnapping for a ransom, suicide and abduction for revenge.
The first theory was discarded, because no letters or other communications were received demanding ransom. The second theory was dismissed because, according to Mrs. Garey, any motive for self-destruction was entirely lacking and there were no conditions in Mrs. Williams' life upon which such an action could be based.
Suspicion Points to Man.
The third theory has much support, according to the facts she has at hand. Mrs. Garey said, but that such evidence cannot be revealed until her daughter is found.
"If she is found with any marks upon her body I will certainly know who did it and will be prepared to prove it." said the mother, who is on the point of suffering a nervous breakdown, and after considering her daughter's past and present associates, Mrs. Garcy stated that suspicion narrowed down to about three people, but centered largely around one man, whom she did not name. This man is believed to be the same one with whom Mrs. Williams is said to have quarrelled two days before her disappearance.
**Held for Revenge?**
Mrs. Garcy stated quite frankly her belief that her daughter is alive, and that she is being held in some secret place against her will for purposes of revenge.
Those assisting Sergeant Battie in the investigation are Junction M. Green, bonfire 168. West 136th street, and Thomas A. Berry, uncle of Mrs. Williams.
Mrs. Williams was a prominent member of St. James' Presbyterian Church, 141st street and St. Nicholas avenue, and sang in the choir. Both she and her mother maintained residences on Fish avenue and at 2411 Seventh avenue. She was a milliner and drove a Packard car. When last seen she wore a raccoon coat, black felt hat with a red bow, brown salt, gray stockings, brown shoes, a brown and black red muffler, and a black red muffler. She is light brown in complexion, has dark eyes, black hair, and weighs 116 pounds.
Sergeant Battle is weaving a chain of evidence which is expected to result in an arrest soon, he said.
WOMAN SEEKS $48,000
AS SPORTSMAN'S SPY
Suit has been launched in the Supreme Court by Mrs. Hattie Johnson, 42 West 127th street, against the estate of W. E. D. Stokes, white millionaire and sportsman, for $48,000 she claims is owed her in wages. The woman, through her attorney, Charles Braunhaut, white, declared that the money is due for legal services and aid given Stokes in numerous lawsuits. The millionaire died May 19, 1926, at the age of 73, after a hectic domestic life with two wives.
A 16-year-old youth escaped the serious penalty of first degree assault Monday in General Sessions when Judge Cornellus F. Collins granted a motion to acquit Clifford Swanson. 246 West 121st street, of attempting to shoot a poolroom proprietor Feb. 5. A front plate glass window of the establishment owned by Michael Cohn, white, 1948 Seventh avenue, of crashed out the window of the assault mob of youths was gathered outside. Chon accused Swanson, a frequenter of the place, with shooting at him through the window. The charges collapsed when Sydney T.

Phillip's Night Patrol Officer in Gun Battle
Police are still searching today for a burglar who fired three shots at Charles Bretton, white, an officer of Phillip's Night Patrol, 192 Lenox avenue, following the recent burglarizing of the grocery and meat store of the Delphinier, 190th Nighthaven, at 139th Avenue, and the third of small quantity of cash and $50 worth of merchandise. Bretton was not hit. He returned the fire four times and believes the bandit was wounded. Bretton, who patrols upper Harlem and vicinity, observed a colored man leaving the darkened store and gave him a ticket at Bretton, who returned the fire four times as the man darted through an alleyway toward Seventh avenue between 139th and 140th streets.
The shooting attracted to the scene Patrolman Redding, Buckner, Ken Hammond, and the street station. They searched the neighborhood but found no trace of the fugitive.
White Pleasure-Seeker Beaten, Robbed, Stabbed
Another white man seeking a "good time" in Harlem with colored women has come to gret.
Howard King, 45, white, 551 West 122d street, appeared before Magistrate Quade in Heights Court Monday - April 11 and after he had followed Ethel Jackson, 32, late West 128th street, who promised him a good time, he was beaten and robbed on the top floor of 132 West 143d street, by two male companions of the girl.
He incident smacked a great deal of the old hedger game, for the moment the men, the girls, the exclaimed, "What are you doing with my wife?" He was relieved of $32 cash, one new hat, a pair of eyeglasses and a pen and pencil. He was stabbed twice in the neck for good measure.
Jackson was held in $5,000 bail for the Grand Jury on a charge of robbery. Patrolman Regan of the West 135th street station was the arresting officer.

Attorney Henry Saltan, white, 160 Broadway, represented the defendants.

Archie Poole of S.I. PlacedUnder Arrest
State Motor Vehicle Bureau Causes Arrest for Bad Checks
Archibald O. Poole, well-known auto tire dealer and taxi service man of St. George, was arrested Friday following indictments returned by the Grand Jury charging three counts of grand larceny and two of petit larceny. The indictments were sealed until after the arrest of Poole this morning. Detective Tim Cotter of the District Attorney's staff, armed with a bench warrant signed by District Attorney Fach, went to Poole's place of business and took the proprietor into custody. The State Motor Vehicle Bureau is the complainant, and the specific charge is that Poole issued to it five worthless checks totaling $559. Poole, in addition to his tire and taxi business, is agent between auto owners and the Motor Vehicle Bureau in securing license plates and operators licenses for residents from all sections of the Island.
It is charged that checks issued by Archie were given in return for License plates for his customers. Poole's business activities have made him one of the most widely known men on the Island. He made numerous contributions to these activities, and he is known for convenience, and it is hinted that his present embarrassment may be the result of his saving aid to others.

Durham Conference Shows Negro Business Is Facing Critical Period
Durham Conference Shows Negro Business Is Facing Critical Period
Business and Professional Leaders Form Permanent Organization to Promote New Era Co-operative Projects Declared Only Economic Salvation
DURHAM, N. C., April 29—With the committee composed of Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Dr. Mordecai Johnson and Kelly Miller busy summarizing findings of the Fact Finding Conference which ended here April 19, the Negro's position in American life was today viewed as serious.
The lack of control of basic industries and the plight of business men were the main chords that throbbed throughout the deliberations by leaders from all over the country.
The conference was made a permanent organization with Dr. James E. Shepard, one of the promoters of the movement president.
Other officers are W. G. Pearson of the city; W. W. Saunders. State Supervisor of High Schools of West Virginia, and C. C. Spaulding.
Johnson, president of Howard Uni- tries and the plight of business men were the main chords that throbbed throughout the deliberations by leaders from all over the country.

Business Picture Gloomy.
A gloomy picture of Negro business, bewildered by the restrictions imposed upon it and the labor which should support it, was painted for delegates by W. C. Matney Sr., director of the department of business ad-
The fact finding opened with two reports which brought forth some lively discussions. The first was that of Dr. Kelly Miller on the "Negro and the Eighteenth Amendment." The second was that those present did not agree with Dean Miller that "Southerners favored prohibition first on account of Negroes and, second, to protect their sons." While there was a general agreement that the law should be enforced, there was no solid front presented to support the statement of Dean Miller that Negroes were more duty bound to observe the law than were whites. The church came in for consideration, and this phase of life was discussed by those connected directly with church work. Bishop George Clement referred to the part the church has played in the development of the Negro in America, cliting the fact that the church had afforded him the ability to organize and to lead and to profit under his own organization and leadership.
The time is now ripe for a new program, which would bring about the union of various kindred denominations into two big families, namely, the Baptists and the Methodists, an arrangement the Bishop declared the church could prove to be an effective agency in promoting better schools, erecting well-equipped hospitals and homes for the aged. Dr. George E. Haynes, secretary of the Commission on the Church and Religion, led the council of Churches, and Dr. W. N. DeBerry, prominent minister and churchman, went the Bishop one better by declaring that the church was now at the crossroads and must do more than "save souls" and erect edifices, hospitals and colleges, but must serve in many other ways. The Bishop and educator who joined in the discussion of the church was Dr. Mordecai

Mr. A. S. Jackson writes from Rutherfordton, N.C. "I would get up mornings and my joints would ache. I would feel sore. I would feel sleepy and stupid. I didn't want to work." I "heard of BlackDrought and how highly it was recommended. It certainly did me a world of good. So now I keep it in the house all the time. It keeps me in splendid shape." Pains in your joints and muscles are often the result of the heat which have absorbed into the system instead of being carried off in a natural manner. These waste products cause a great deal of trouble to many people, and much relief has been found, in many cases, by seeing to it that the bowels act regularly and the bowels day. Therefore's BlackDrought could be taken as often as necessary to open the bowels and put them in a healthy state of daily activity.

Business Picture Gloomy. A gloomy picture of Negro business, bewildered in a maze of restrictions imposed upon it and the labor which should support it. It was painted for W. W. Maitner, director of the department of business administration at Bluefield Institute, Bluefield, W. Va.
What is true of Negro business is true of the Negro on the farm, in Mr. Matney's opinlon. Negro farm ownership has decreased and farm profits have dwindled, he points out, despite the pictures and the dreams of the agricultural schools which were to train boys to emancipate the Negro army, but that the schools do not hold the key agricultural problems, because agriculture does not lead an independent and isolated existence, but rests upon a delicate balance between transportation, manufacture, commerce and agriculture itself. Its future, among Negroes, is not encouraging. The census figures for 1920 show that there are 70,000 Negro businesses. Mr. Matney asserts; but that number makes only one percent of all business of the country and most of it is small, petty business.
J. Allison Davis of Hampton Institute explicated the deplorable plight of the Negro in the industrial field. Indication after indication was given that the Negro was not taking advantage of the opportunity offered him in the skilled and semi-skilled vocations. The Hampton professor proclaimed that the real reason for the slipping of the Negro in this direction was his refusal to be trained in the skilled and semi-skilled trades.
Jackson Offers Kemedy.
James A. Jackson of the United States Department of Commerce, in an address chatting with information mining experts, vaulted and studying the problems of the business men, urged the business leaders to take advantage of the literature offered them by the Department of Commerce, and set forth some of the needs of business as improved bookkeeping methods, more extensive and systematic advertising, co-operative efforts on the part of business men themselves and keeping abreast of the times.

Citizens Must Get Fair Treatment, He Tells Commerce Body
The present administration of the police department will demand fails and just treatment of all citizens by the police. Mr. Grever, A. Whalen, told an enthusi-
THE BROADWAY
astic audience last Wednesday night at the Association of Trade and Commerce, 2370 Seventh avenue.
During the course of his address the police head praised Harlem for its contribution to city government and urged the district to interest itself in all affairs of New York and participate in its progress to a larger degree.
He also emphasized the need for clients to co-operate with officers in prosecuting criminals and took palms to explain his much criticized assertion about "law in the end of a patrolman's night stick."
Physical force is expected to be applied only in arresting known criminals whose constitutional rights are of little concern to the department, he said. The commissioner declared that he had taken special pains in selecting commanders for the Skipkates presetter who would deal fairly and sympathetically with the community.
Citing the interest of the department in Harlem, Commissioner Whalen stated that the Sixteenth precinct will soon have as fine a station house as the city affords. Building operations will begin shortly, he said.
Critics who point out the efficiency of English police, especially Scotland Yard's, were termed unfair in their comparison. Scotland Yard has a 100 per cent record for solution of crimes because all cases that are not solved are returned to the districts and no mention made of them in official reports, he asserted. The department here holds a record of 459,000 convictions out of a half million arrests, according to the speaker.
The commissioner was introduced by Pope B. Billups attorney, and was responded to by George W. Harris, then to New York, New York. Other speakers were J. A. Steele, president of the association; Alderman Fred R. Moore, J. M. Greene and W. H. Willis.

New Bill Would Give Matt Henson Pension
WASHINGTON, April 29—Another attempt to have Congress give official recognition of the service of Matthew A. Henson, who accompanied Rear Admiral Peary to the North Pole, was made here today when Congressman La Guardia introduced a bill to place the explorer in a listed list as if he had served thirty years. Henson has been employed as a clerk in the New York customs service for sixteen years. He was appointed by President Roosevelt. The Peary aide is of advanced age and would receive little remuneration if he retired now, the Congressman said.

Board to Consider Two Harlem Pools
Board to Consider Two Harlem Pools
Estimate Committee Approves Recreational Facilities Costing $750,000
The first step toward securing two municipal swimming pools and a public bath house for Harlem was won Monday before the Committee of the Whole of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, when that body gave its approval to proposed expenditures of $750,000 for the projects.
The proposals face final action tomorrow when they appear on the calendar of the Board of Estimate for the vote of that body. Dangers of the polluted waters of Harlem River and prejudice that keeps Negroes from fully enjoying municipal improvements with whites were arguments advanced in favor of the 184th street project.
Mayor Suggests Site.
Mayor James J. Walker, who presided at the committee meeting, evidenced interest in Harlem recreational facilities to the extent of suggesting the unused land at 163d street and Seventh avenue for one project. He was also outspoken in his opinion that a site in Jefferson Park (suggested by the Anthony La Rocca Association) should not be used for a bath and pool.
The committee secretary's report showed that total costs of the pool and bath asked for the lower east side of the pool would be about $232,000 more than the halfway point. A pool addition to the 134th street bath house would also require condemnation proceedings against a church and would probably boost the cost above $250,000.
James Middleton of the North Harlem Community Council, W. L. Brown of the Citizens' Co-operative League and Dr. LeRoy Bowman, white, of the City Recreation Committee pleaded for a pool that would directly benefit the Negroes of Harlem and faced race feeling encountered by persons who dare enjoy pools in white neighborhoods.

Before Giving Up Hope Read Blount's Life Story
Have you ever felt like "giving up the ghost" just because you thought your physical and financial handicaps were too great? Were you ever compelled to give unstinted credit to some cripple who had made "a go of life," in spite of his or her defects? No matter what your answer may be to these questions, you may be persuaded to look upon life a little differently after you have read the story of the life of Clifford Blount, a March graduate of Wiley College, way down in Marshall, Texas, which follows:
FOUR
"For ten years—ever since being in the grades—I have attended Wiley College and during this time I have been without the service of two of the most valuable members of the body—the arms.
"To begin with, I was born on a farm out from Jefferson, Texas, December 11, 1902—the fifth child of a family of seven children. Was on one of those years in every normally, for at the age of 11 a wagon rolled over my abdomen, causing internal injuries which affected me for over five years—the more beginning of my 'accident complex.' When I began to recover, I was compelled to find some kind of work that did not set too severe a strain upon my body.
"My difficulty in finding such a job convinced me of the necessity for an education more than did any other influence in my life. However, found occupations in the field of a Jefferson doctor, and was about to become proficient in my duties when the accident which aimed to make me a beggar crossed my way.
"I had been to Marshall, a nearby town where Wiley is located, in a touring car with two others, and we were returning at two in the morning. A curve taken too fast turned the car into a crushing crushed in the wreckage. For some time there was hope of saving one of my arms, but blood poisoning set in and amputation of both my arms was necessary—one just below the shoulder, the other just below the hip. In the hospital I was dismissed with a pamphlet of a Dallas judge, who was armless and who could make devices by the use of which armless people could make themselves useful.
I took the train to Jefferson after my release from the hospital. After I arrived there I was forced to walk seven miles into the country, for there was no one at the station to meet me. Everybody I met deplored my condition and to my surprise would have been dead. Only one person gave me hope—that was my mother, who met me with a smile and said, 'How glad I am to see you alive!' This, and this alone, gave me a strong determination to live independently in spite of my handicap.
"One of the first things that I did after getting home was to persuade my brother to go with me to Dallas to see the judge who could make the artificial arms so cleverly. Judge Corigay was at that time president of the school where he found time to see us. He stopped his work and showed me how he performed several duties, and then he drove me over to his factory and had me measured for an arm. We stayed in Dallas a week while the device was being made. When we left, the judge said many encouraging things about the brain from helping me very much in order that I should be taught to shift for myself.
"The doctors at the hospital told me that the only way for me to make a living would have to be by means of an education. My parents agreed with this, but they had no money they have to educate me, nor did they have sound prospects of getting money."
"But at the time when despondency was greatest came the largest gift that I ever received. Three hundred dollars became available for my education.
"My mother immediately looked about for a school where I could get the needed commodity—education. She wrote practically every school of note in Texas, but only one school in the State was big-hearted enough to give a chance to one who needed it more than any student on their rolls. That school was Wiley, whose president favored us with a personal reply expressing his particular interest in my case and his solitary nature. He said he should expect your son on Sept. 17 were the closing words of his letter.
"So, on the morning of Sept. 16, father and mother packed my tilings in an antique trunk of dimensions twelve inches deep and about two and a half feet long, put the trunk on the wagon, and set out for Marshall. I shall never forget the contents of that trunk—two walls, a floor, underwear. My only suit was exactly where one would suit to find it—on my back
"I was registered in Wiley, and on Sept. 18, 1919, I entered my first day's work in a college as a student in the seventh grade. After a year there, I realized that the $300 would not cover my college学费. I studied up a plan of traveling over the country, giving demonstrations of the manner in which one malmed for life could take care of himself, and also exhibitions of skill in typewriting. The church was to be my chief medium. In this way I was able to teach the children of Canada and Mexico. This has been of great value to me, for it has made me understand that I am not the wrist off person in the world. "Aside from this source of income, I was able to gather funds from another place. In 1928 I got a downpayment to let me handle its campus business in consideration of a commission of 20 per cent and did my work free. I have continued this to the present. "Now, upon being graduated from Wiley, have turned my attention to my future occupation. I intend to study theology at Northwestern next year."

Supreme Court Affirms
Verdict Favoring Wilkins
Ending a legal battle of nearly four years, the Appallate Division of the Supreme Court affirmed a jury's verdict Friday for $240 against Mrs. Ella Wolfford, white, who entered suit against LeRoy Wilkins, 67 West 139th street, following the purchase of a house, to which she was rented. Wolfford entered into a contract to purchase an apartment at 424 Lenox avenue for $23,500, with $17,000 cash and the balance on a second mortgage. The property was free of debt and the plaintiff had the right to place a $10,000 mortgage. The property was represented as producing $40 per month in rent. Of the property, the woman said in her complaint that the rents paid were only $350. This was denied by the defendant and a motion made for dismissal of the action on the grounds that the property was worth more than the purchase price. Following the verdict favorable to the defendant, Mrs. Wolfford appealed. Charles E. Toney, seventh avenue represents Wilkins, L. L. Lewis, white, 1440 Broadway, the plaintiff.

Would Bar Interracial Marriage in Wisconsin
MADISON, Wis., April 29—A bill prohibiting intermarriage between Negroes and whites was introduced in Senate of the State of Wisconsin on Friday. In past sessions similar bills have been proposed but they have always been killed on the floor of the legislature. The measure prohibits white persons and Negroes, mulattos, or persons of Negro descent to marry or live together as man and wife, under penalty of a fine of from $200 to $1,000, or imprisonment of not less than $200, than that year. The bill was introduced by Senator Herman J. Severson, Jole, but it is sponsored by the Senate judiciary committee.
There are only about 8,000 persons of Negro descent in the entire state, and only in Milwaukee are the numbers large enough to have any influence in a political way. So far as can be observed the people do not seem to be worried about the measure. Some are wondering, however, of the future consequences of having such a large number of blacks since the Richmond, Va. residential segregation law has shown the way in which anti-intermarriage legislation may be utilized to the detriment of the race.

shortly on new buildings and improvements, a bath house to which may soon be added a swimming pool, and an ever increasing number of Negro enterprises.
To these signs of growing and continued growth and prosperity should be added the ever increasing number of community enterprises that "do not practice discrimination in the selection of their employees."
We stress, and will continue to stress, this last mentioned fact, because it makes for a better Harlem for the competent young Negro man or woman who wants to be of service to his community; who does not want the door of hope and opportunity closed against him because of his color, and who wants to learn modern methods of doing business. Harlem's Real Boosters recognize the far-reaching effect of such a policy. They are willing to share their prosperity with the community in which it is made.

Three MINUTES A Day
. . . with this heauty aid
works miracles to any complexion
Alluring Beauty
can be yours by using Dr. Fred
Palmer’s Skin Whitener Prepara-
tions . . . just “three minutes’ a
day. This complete and easy-to-
use home beauty treatment is a
quick and sure way to remove ugly
blackheads, pimples and blotches
«.. and to bring out all of your
fascinating loveliness, by reviving
that dull, lifeless, sallow skin and
giving it a smooth, light and cap-
tivating appearance.
Dr. Fred Palmet’s Skin Whitener Oint-
ment cleats and lightens the darkest skin,
giving it a feminine exquisiteness that gets
more charming every day. The dainty Skin
Whitener Soap cleanses the skin, smoothes
away the roughness and gets rid of that
“shiny” appearance. ‘The Face Powder, in
addition to keeping the skin soft, smooth
and velvety, also clings to the skin and lasts
so long that constant powdering is unneces-
Sary, one application frequently lasting all
day... and the famous Hair Dresser is a
toilet necessity that no woman now-a-days
can very well be without: it keeps your hair
soft and glossy and in place hours and hours
after one application.

| BELIEVE that creams and skin
tonics are more necessary than
we give them credit for beng, Con-
sidering the dust and dirt we come
in contact with daily, it is no wonder
that creams aro needed. Not only
are they valuable for removing dust
particles, but also for removing rouge
and powder,
‘You should never retire at night
before you conscientiously attend to
your face, as sleeping with your pores
clogged is very harmful. Apply a
00d, cold, gentle cream to your face,
massaging with an upward and out-
ward motion. Let the cream remain
on for a few minutes and then re~
move with tissue towels. Wash the
face well with hot water and then
rinse In cold.
It your face is rough and sppar-
ently’ clogged underneath the skin
surface, rub a mixture of olive oil
and witch hazel into the skin,
If you wish to bleach your skin,
1ub on nightly a mixture of glycerine
and lemon Jutce. Allow {t to remain
on all night and remove it the next
morning.
‘Vanishing creams are excellent for
dry skins es they serve as a good
base for powder ond, at the same
time, give your skin that much de-
sired velvety appearance,
‘Do not neglect your neck, Remem~
ber that what applies to the face
holds good for tha neck also. Never
allow your neck to become darker
than your face. ‘Treat it as carefully
fs you do your face,

Colorful Opening of Regular Season at Dexter Park Last Sunday Afternoon
Colorful Opening of Regular Season at Dexter Park Last Sunday Afternoon
Borough President George Harvey Tosses Out First Ball in Contest Between the Hillidales and Bushwicks, Which the Latter Won
Although Sunday's rain prevented the Bushwicks from going through with both games of their slated twin bill against the Hilldale team of Darby, Pa. it did not prevent all the ceremonies that go with the usual double-header opening day of the Dexter Parkers, and what is more important, it did not stop the Kandy Kids from handing Hilldale a 15-to-1 trouncing in the game that was played.
Borough President George U. Harvey of Queens tossed out the first ball after the march to the flagpole had been completed. The St. John's Home Band supplied plenty of music, the Bushwicks contributed plenty of hits and Hilldale accounted for a goodly number of errors. All in all, there was a lot of everything, even if the baseball end of it had to be curtailed. There were quite a few customers there, too, about 8,000 of them.
EIGHT
Lefty Baumgartner, of Philly and Athletic fame, hurled for the Bushwicks and was the master all the way. He would have had a shutout to his credit but for a misplay by Spy Barnes in the first half and the subsequent Holloway. Britt then beat out a hit to Buck Lal. Johnson grounded to Lai and reached first safely when Barnes fumbled the latter's throw. Barnes then missed the pass. Britt scored when Dihigo grounded to Howie Carter. Dallard fanned for the third out. The Bushwicks came back with four runs in their half and two more subsequent hits. A wild throw by Dihigo gave Lai a base. George Hobson singled to left, sending Lai to third. Barnes walked, filling the bases, and Eddie Gerner singled. Howard Loir poked a base hit to center, scoring Barnes. Kewpie Dean popped to Cooper, after which Carter singled to right and tailed Gerner. Lefty by Dallard prevented the Bushwicks scoring more runs. Patty Smith flied to right and Dallard took the ball with his back against the fence. Dallard then uncoaked a perfect perimeter and Carter was thrown off second.
A single, a pass, a fielder's choice on a sacrifice bunt and two sacrifice files gave the homesteaders the sixth they garnered a cluster of five on two singles, two errors, a base on balls, a stolen sack, and a home run into the left-field bleachers by third and a pass gave the Bushwills two more runs in the seventh. The Dexter Parkers bagged another brace in the eighth on two hits by the colored aggregation was held to seven hits by Baumgartner and the Bushwills thumped the ball for 16 safeties. They were further aided by the sloppy playing of the visitors, who were guilty of five
Lal and Hobson led the Bushwick's heavy artillery, each getting three blows. Gerner, Lohr, Dean. And Carter pet 20 hits. The Bushwick who failed to connect safely at least once was Baumgartner, who concentrated his efforts on turning back the colored sluggers.

EDWARDS STARS AT PENN GAMES
Shared Spotlight With Barney Berlinger on the Opening Day
Barney Börlinger was forced to share the limelight in the opening days program at the Penn Relay, which he led with Phil Edwards, of New York University; Paavo Nurmilä of Finland, and George Simpson, of Ohio who received official credit for so daring that surpassed the American 880-yard record when he carried the Violet colors to victory as anchor runner in the championship. N. sprint medley relay championship. The dusky N. Y. U. star, who, earlier in the afternoon, had led his team to a new Middle Atlantic championship, clocked in the intercollegiate medley in 1:51-4 seconds for the anchor of 880 yards. That is within two seconds of the world's mark for the distance and nearly a second under the American mark. Sprint medley, last of the relay events on the course, its greatest thrill, for New York University was in second position when Edwards received the baton, which he placed on Leitz, the ace of the highly ranked team, and others who were in front.

of him as they swung into the last lap.
The Violet runner inaugurated his first burst of blazing speed on the runners' back stretch, as the runners hit the back stretch. Then ensued a bristling duel between Letz and Edwards, which saw the runners way to the front at the foul turn.
As they came into the home stretch, however, Unlocked as never before. Inch by inch he drew until he was almost ahead of Edwards. The latter managed to fight him off, but it was by the margin of a mere yard that Edwards won the race.
RAIN TRIES TO SPOIL OVAL GAME
Lincoln and Bacharach Giants Play 8-8 Tie at League Opener
Despite clouded skies and a downpour of rain which came before the first game of a scheduled doubleheader, the team impressed the coin Glants and the Bacharach Giants made an auspicious beginning for the new American Negro League here. Sunday, when they played an all-star team, the season was officially opened by Dr. John F. Condon, public school principal and a veteran ballplayer and Lincoln Giant fan, who threw out 15 of the 369th Infantry Band, Lieut. Jacob Porter, conductor, furnished music. The first run of the game was made by a day after, who after being given his base on balls stole three successive bases. Another feature of the game was three home runs. The first was by Charlie Smith of the Lincoln Giants hit one over the right field fence in the fourth and Manager Ben Taylor followed with the other in the fifth. The game was finally at times, but made five errors during the game.

Batting 'Em Out With Lloyd's Crack Lincoln Giants at Protectory Oval
BY SOL WHITE
THEY are off! We were in at the opening and know whereof we speak. Our journey from New York to Philadelphia to view the initial game of the 1929 championship race of the Negro American League, between the Hillsdales, whose grounds are near the banks of historical Darby Creek and the Lincoln Giants of New York was fraught with apprehensive anticipations. Drawing nigh and higher to the stadium where we were to witness the battle of teams, each of which are handled by two of the greatest players that ever stepped in spiked shoes, our feelings were no very much unlike the football player when he hears the whistle for a kick-off or the boxer when the gong sounds for his opportunity to win a title. How's the old game gown? How will John and Oscar impress the fans as leaders? Will the players rise to the occasion and show the dash and vim that are so pleasing to fandom? And so many other thoughts appertaining to the success of the grand old game mingled with this courtanium that even the repartee of the Lincoln players and the head of the family of Lloyd, while transporting from New York to Darby, failed to eliminate the mental disturbance of this old-timer, who has been under fire of many battles of the like and revelled in the smoke thereof.
But, when we arrived at Darby and saw a swarming host of baseball teams struggling to gain admittance, when we entered the grounds and noted the way the players were disporting, our moments of depression were at an end. Something told us there was going to be a ball game. And, boy, it was one of the nicest bites you ever saw. Leaving out errors, each team did almost everything the other would do. Dehigo thrilled the tide with a Rushian hit over the fence, but failed by inches. Scales chose a left-field fence for his drive and trotted around the bases with a well-balanced countenance and suppressed smile. Naman Washington, erstwhile Hillsdale player, had a grand day at the bat. Out of five times at bat "Wash" made three hits and drove to Charleston, in center, on a line twice for outs. His perfect bunt was a beauty. "Wash" and Scales carried off the honors of the day for hitting. Scales made a single, double and a home run. The Lincoln played an errorless game, which is a wonderful performance so early in the season. The team, Roho was great in defense and was well supported by a proportioned Cuban behind the bat. Every player on both teams seem to be giving their best services to their respective leaders. Hillsdale fans have nothing to worry about. They have some of the greatest players in the game on that team. Charleston, Judy Johnson, Britt, Dehigo, Holloway, Dallard, Lewis, Cooper. What team wouldn't take any of them? Judy Johnson is quite a player. He has a reputation of being one of the most timely hitters in the game. Britt and Dehigo, two of the best all-round players in the game, are going to be of valuable service. The other players, Charleston, Gulliver, Peters in the League should consult Rector of the Lincoln and find how he held Oscar down to a scratch hit last Saturday. But last Saturday is past. And now comes Sunday.
Every fan in Harlem was waiting for the opening of the League season at Protectory Oval last Sunday, where the Lincoln Giants were to meet the Bacharach Giants in a double-header. But dark clouds overcast the sky and a drizzling rain kept the attendance down. But the twelve hundred present enjoyed the music furnished by Mr. Keenan and lamped a very interesting ball game. It was a kind of a free-hitting game, with the Bacharach showing an unexpected attack that almost carried them to victory. Led by Brother Ben of the Taylors, who led his team on the field and proceeded to win the game, the Bacharach singles they were dangerous at all stages of the game. They were hitting everything Holland of the Lincoln's was putting up. But, then, the Lincolnes were hitting, too, and doing other things to hold the rampaging Bachs in due bounds. Here we have Dolly Gray, leading hitter of the Lincoln's, slamming the ball for a single and stealing second, third and home. Later in the game Dolly stretched a two-bagger into a three-base hit. Charley Smith smashed another one of his four-base drives out of the lot, and Holland was hitting the ball with vengeance. The game was called at beginning of ninth inning on account of rain, with scores even at 8-8.
Next Sunday the Cuban Stars will be the attraction at the Oval. Manage People of the Stars has gathered the best Cuban talent obtainable for hitter this season and, like some of the other owners, the comment bee is buzzing in the vicinity of his top-please. A double-header will be played. First game will be called at 1:45.
Take 180th street and Bronx Park subway to 177th street; then take Tremond avenue surface car to gate of Protectory Oval.
The play at the Lincoln Giant and Bacharach Giant game last Sunday, when Clint Thomas was injured, may not be understood by many fans who saw the play. That Clint was hurt so badly was an accident, pure and simple. Thomas was making a play the same as Scales. When Scales went to cover first base on the throw from Spearman he was wide open for injury. As most ball players do, Thomas tried to bump the ball from Scales' hands. Scales happened to be in a position where his protection was fortunate. Thomas, we are sure, has played ball long enough to know that, on a play like the one mentioned, the runner generally comes out whole.

DEMPSEY SIGNS KID CHOCOLATE
Little Cuban to Meet Al Singer at Ebbets Field Next Month
Although Jack Dempsey has secured the signatures of Kid Chocolate and Al Singer to appear at Ebbet's Fête June 11, the full course off is if Singer's manager induces the manager of Kid Chocolate to allow the white boy to enter the ring many pounds heavier than the little Cuban fighter, the manager made for Singer by the white sporting writers and the fraternity in general, they are trying their best to get the Cuban fighter into a state where he will be much weaker than usual, even through the ropes to meet Singer.
At the present time they are insisting that Chocolate enter the ring at 124 pounds, allowing a round engagement. Singer's manager also insists that Chocolate enter the ring no lighter than 124 pounds as he is fully aware of the fact that the Cuban is at his best between 120 and 122 pounds.
Like in the days when Joe Gans and George Dixon held sway, the claims of superiority being made by the white fighters had managers by far, their fighters are concerned are just as empty as the hot air they breathe. They are insisting that all colored fighters be at their worst while the white fighters are at their best. They say that they call the improvement in sport fathered by the Boxing Commission. It is more than likely that Singer will take run out powder and Jack Kesler have a perfectly good fighter on his hands while trying to induce opponents to meet him and not succeeding. Dempsey is taking the little color of the he does not will remind as even the white writers will remind him of the doirs surrounding his own contract with Harry Wills, which he failed to go with. Hey, he does a thing too, but real promoting before he closes the engagement for a fight between Chocolate and Singer despite the claims of his having signed both fighters for the bout next month.

Wallace Won on Points From Sammy White Friday
In a sensational ten-round semifinal at the 106th Armory last Friday night Harry Wallace, Philadelphia flash, weighing 149 won the decision. White of the 369th dynasty, weighing 141.
Wallace fought the best fight of his career, hooking, 'tabbing, crossing and cleverly tying his opponent. White kept urging Wallace to mix it with him, but Harry was content, for the most part, to box him at long range. Now and then he would step in to fight with White for a few moments, and these were the only chances White had to land any effective blows.
Wallace was substituting for Larry Maranucci, of Troy.

MONTGOMERY, Ala., April 26 — The Alabama State Hornets staged a comedy in errors here today and permitted the Clark University Panthers to one conference victory of the entire season. The game was quite slowly paced and did not pick up in skill until after the fifth frame. Crosby was on the mound for Clark and got stronger. Matthings passed, while the veteran Whitesburg bursts early in the game to Atkins Collins. Hainey, Dukes and Johnson led the hitting parade for Clark, while "Red" Lowe and Severn Fraunquist outnumbered the majority of State Normals' hiters.

White Boy so Confident He Brings Wife to See Him Against Chocolate
Looking the picture of health, Fidel LaBarba, former world's flyweight champion, arrived in this city Friday morning for a fight for the title of spectacular Chocolate at the New York Coliseum on May 21. LaBarba stepped from the Twentieth Century Lid., accompanied by his bride of less than a year and the wife of more than a year. The trio had just completed a trip covering 19,100 miles. This included a tour of Australia where LaBarba engaged in four bouts, winning them all. The winner was Billy McAllister, bantamweight champion of Australia, who succeeded to LaBarba's knockout punch in the fourth round. Following that bout LaBarba defeated him in a fifteen-round contest and then Billy Grimes in fifteen rounds. His last battle was a return match with Smith and LaBarba stopped the South African in the LaBarba said. he weighed 122 pounds. He broke training following his second battle with Smith on March 15, this year. He will have a bantamweight limit of 118 pounds.
"He's a bigger and better boxer than the last time he fought in New York," Blake was quick to answer. "He was a squid of newspapermen who surrounded the pair in Jess McMahon's office in the Gaiety Theatre Building. LaBarba's two contests in this season were on Dec. 23, 1925, and Elky Clarke of England in the Garden on Jan. 21, 1927, in which LaBarba made a chopping block of the Englishman in twelve rounds. A chocolate, who was discovered by Louis Guitterez when the poundster was selling newspapers in Havana, Blake took LaBarba off the streets of Los Angeles and had the poundster developed as a model. A. A. Moore represents that organization when he won the Olympic flyweight championship in Paris in 1924. Blake carefully nursed his protege and now the world professional title from Franken Gerald. After winning the 112-pound championship, LaBarba retired to enter Le兰 Stanford University, following his graduation from the Lincoln High School.
LaBarba to go back to Stanford to get his degree. Following that he will join his manager in a new role. He will be the world's bantamweight championship. He is 23 years old.

CHOCOLATE LED NEGRO STARS ON BROADWAY ARENA CARD MONDAY
The fans who jammed the Broadway Arena Monday night to get a glimpse of Kid Chocolate, the Cuban dandy, weren't a bit disappointed. All they got for their money was a glimpse, and very little of that. Cuba's colorful ciby-hued representative hopped into the ring, squared off with Tommy Ryan, an ancient bit of crockery from McKeesport, Pa., and walked out one minute and fifty-five seconds later without even having mussed his haircomb, in which, incidentally, he takes great pride.
The Keed strutted out at the bell in his usual nonchalant manner—a style which has got him into hot water on two different occasions—but Ryan just moved his arms whenever Chocolate stuck in a left jab. The Cuban decided to vary his attack a bit, so he swung a long left hook to the veteran's chin—and the next moment Tommy was wallowing in the resin dust.
He arose at the count of eight and, after having his gloves wiped off by Referee Patsy Haley, started to put up his hands. Chocolate came rushing in, Ryan crouched and the Keed, in the act of swinging a left hook, crashed into Tommy with such force that the latter met the ring mat once again. This time he decided he might miss that train if he got up—so he stayed down, naturally. And that ended that "ten-round" affair.
At 128, Ryan outweighed Chocolate six pounds. As if that made any difference!
The scull-final was a fast scrap from the start until the moment, thirty seconds after the bell had sounded for the ninth round, that Referee Haley stepped in to prevent Black Bill, another Cuban socker, from further punishing Routier Parra. South American flyweight. This one was also scheduled for ten stanzas.
Bill was too strong and fast for the tiny South American, and pounded his body unmeritfully round after round. He was a bit nervous. Routier throughout. He sent him down for no count in the first, but Parra was up and fighting hard. Bill was still very nervous. The cery round and the ultimate loser often was forced to clinch in order to avoid the punishment his rival was met out. At the time the eight round rolled on, Parra's left optic was tightly closed and many of the fans yelled for the referee to halt the duel. Routier was still stick it out, and more than once he managed to get in a left jab or a short right chop. He was a good one for the Negro midget, inasmuch as Parra has held his own with most of the lead-

P.O.CLERKS FORM NEW TENNIS CLUB
Rain Kept the Boys Off the Courts and They Await Better Weather
the clerks of the Varkish street station of the New York Post Office have recently organized what promises to be a most extraordinary tenure for the clerk, one elected officer, a secretary and a club captain who will be selected only after he has proven himself superior to the other members of the court. They have chosen the quite appropriate name of the Clerks' Tennis Club for their group, and already have recruited several of their members. Their players will be classed in three groups—the veterans, consisting of Lynn D. Byrd, the captain of the Wade, George Jackson and Ted Hodge, some good new material in Clarence Ryan, Sydney Hardy, Wayman A. Pemberton, Nathaniel Mampe and the promising club captain. These two classes are augmented by Henry Rhodes. John D. Todd Jr., and Raymond Matthews—who are all clubbelters, yet equally enthusiled.
"The Clerks" are popularizing themselves with their fellow workers by leaving an open door to members of the team, and by learning the game of tennis. At their last meeting Ernest W. Nelson, Maceo Hamilton and Jimmy Farrar sent in their requests to take advantage of the new equipment, and they will be taken in hand by the veterans and instructed till they are able to go for themselves. Having been delayed throughout our race, the three racquet men propose to virtually live on the courts during the early part of May in order to fit themselves for the game. Dan Park the last Sunday in May. At these trials the club captainy will be decided and a line will be gotten on material to be used in match training, opposing clubs. Needless to say, all eager to make a creditable showing. Wayman G. Callman is acting secretary and all communications should be made to Varkit Street Post Office, New York.

Williams Also Scores Over Young at B.-M. T. Pouts
Joe Williams, Service Track 141-pounder, scored a technical knockout in the first round over Anthony Young, of the Station Department, 143, in the main bout of six rounds at the show of the B.-M.T. Employees' Associations at the Railroad Men's clubhouse last Thursday night.
The end came when Williams shot a right to Young's face that opened a cut over the latter's right eye and made it impossible for Young to continue.
At the start it looked like any one's battle, with Young getting home the cleaner and more telling blows. During a scuffle toward the close of the first session Williams stepped in close and ripped over his right. It was a glancing blow that Young almost evaded entirely. The flow of blood immediately covered Young's face, and the referee halted the affair.
Joe Johnson, of the Station Department, defeated Luther Grinage, of the same office, in the semi-final of six sessions.
Grinage just managed to last the distance. He was down for short counts in the third and fourth frames while in the sixth he almost withered under a barrage of blows to the head and body. Luther went into a

The first six round meeting resulted in a draw between Joe Garro of the Elevated Track and Stanley Murphy of the Surface Track. Murphy appeared much the better at the start of the fast break by Garro earned him an even finish. Each scaled 134 pounds.
Probably the best scrap of the evening was the third of three fourounders in which Mack Kaufman of Avenue Repairing Shops defeated Fortune Coney Island Shops. Both showed only a willingness to give punch for punch, with Kaufman proving the harder hitter. Kaufman had a four pound weight, over Bersahe who scored 134. Ed Van Hooten of the Eastern District Elevated knocked out Billy Cullin of the Southern Division Elevated in 1:45 of the first of the slated opening four. A left to the of Cullin's stomach turned the trick. Van Hooten weighed 130, Cullin, 128.

HOW LIES GET OUT
HOW LIES GET OUT
By THE EDITOR
NO better example could be used than the appended article to prove why Negroes should support their own publications. The deserving will not have to feel offended after reading papers published by their own people who approach subjects of this kind with the dignity expected in an up-to-date newspaper. Charles Vackner, like most people of his kind, allows his imagination to run away with him and he has "One Round" Williams eating pork chops, 19 potatoes, 10 slices of bread and 4 cups of coffee, all at one slit. Williams writes for a Brooklyn daily, and, like some of the writers on the theatrical reality, attempts to be funny by also making his subject speak like some of the thirty-billies of Kentucky gracing Uncle Sam's sea-growing Marine Corps with their presence. Says Mr. Vackner: "ONE ROUND" WILLIAMS, latest fictive sensation, whose contract was bought for 75 cents, is going to settle down to real business. You may or may not have heard of this colored 175-pounder who kayed Andy Mitchell in one round last Monday night. If you haven't we'll tell you exactly what the slasher himself told us immediately after he annihilated 30 pork chops, 19 potatoes, 10 slices of bread and four cups of coffee. One Round" happens to be on a diet and this accounts for his poor appetite. He generally downs three dozen pork chops, whenever he has the price. And this is no saga or Scandinavian myth as they say in Senator street.
Leo Williams, as he is known to his bridge partner, is the oldest living son of Mr. and Mrs. William Williams, who fathered and mothered 22 children down there in Hagerstown, Md. At an early age he showed pugilistic inclinations and was never without his copy of a Shakespearean classic, so long as the volume contained 23 pages wherein the shrewd Leo could conceal 22 playing cards. Or one complete deck of pastebooks. After winning the poker, enchere, pinchole, bridge and "500" championships of his home town Williams journeyed to Philadelphia, where he did considerable riveting for a gentleman named Mr. Lodd, who has a penchant for keeping steamships in his back yard. However, our companion, being an ambitious gentleman, could not take the riveting business seriously and decided to take up mug-crashing as a profession. Ever since he had seen Jack Dempsey kaye Georges Carpenter Leo believed that he could make a go of this career as art.
Now come to the point where our hero obtains a manager. According to Leo his first boy was as hot as a snowball. "Man, what ds man didn't know about tightin'", wrote Yes str. he wuxu the dumbest fighter leader man eyes ever glared at him. "Allan L. Williams," "Mah pugilistic intelligence was gettin' insulted left, right, mostly right, friend, an' I wants to tell you I just not sick and gutted from desse belfims. Ah don't know whether I wux gain' to fight a flyweight or heavyweight and I trained that way. It's no trifle for a man my size to fight a flyweight and it no joke after all starves myself to' three weeks an' weighs at 138 and ware mortal conflict with a gallopin' middleweight. Ah perilously to him to go hitch himself to another battler an' fergal about me."
Williams' next step was in Tony Martello's office and the Broadway Arena matchmaker turned him over to Abe Yager, II, who played an April Fool's Day trick on Pepy Dallas by selling his managerial rights to Pepy for the sum of 75 cents. Yager has since observed the sad panned Leo Williams knock out Mike Halleck in one round and do the same thing to Jack Kelley in Mike Dallas has Williams signed to meet Jack Kelly in the 10-round semifinal. Williams cochalcot-Tommy Ryan fight in the Broadway Arena one week from Monday you care to look at a good right hand hitter, take a few peeks at this 24-year-old colored boy whom Yager let go for the small amount of six bits. Williams worked out daily in the Ploneer Gym.

The Lincoln Giants journeyed to Philadelphia last Saturday to help Hildale pry the lid off the Negro League uniforms, then appeared them on Daryl Field and congratulated them on Daryl Field and their victory of 4-3 over the home team.
Both teams played the game in a manner pleasing to the fans. The players were the lively and worked hard against the victors. The Lincoln's errorless game and hit the ball hard and often. After Dehigo smashed the ball over center field fence, Charleston's the Lincoln's whaled the ball in the same way and danced a home-run clout by inches. Scales smashed the sphere over left-field fence for a home run and hit a great shot. The ball also hit the ball hard during the game. His three singles, including a perfect bunt, were beauties. Rector pitched a cool, intelligent game and hit a great strikeout. Themates. Rector had the great Charleston at his mercy during the game and his control was almost perfect.

Attempt to Bar Jamaica Pastor
Attempt to Bar Jamaica Pastor
Injunction Sought to Prevent Preacher Entering Church Pulpit
Trouble which has been existing in the Merrick Park Baptist* Church, 174th street and 108th avenue, Jamaica, came to a climax last Monday when the Strikland and William Wallace, members of the board of trustees, appeared before Supreme Court Justice Charles J. Druhan and asked for an injunction to prevent their arrival from preaching again in the church. Henry P. Lipscomb, who represented the three trustees, stated that the Rev. Mr. Allen insists upon preaching that following a church meeting the pulpit was declared vacant. He gave a number of reasons why the pastor was not wanted by the flock. The Rev. Mr. Allen opposed the influence it was legal to call a meeting, and whether the members of a Baptist Church had the power to discharge a minister. The Rev. Allen declared that the meeting should be two churches.
Lipscomb stated that under the Religious Corporation Law of the Baptist Church the members had a right to call the meeting, as had the church a scheduled meeting its place and purpose for the two previous weeks.
Justice Druhan reserved decision, following an argument as to whether Wallace, one of the men seeking the church, is a member of the church.

‘Mr. Snellings was not entirely in bi
best voice in the first part of the pro-
gram and bis songs suffered for need
of more technical skill and a more
horough realization of the emotional
contents of the classics. His diction
fand phrasing were fair, although at
tmes there seemed to be evidences of
fa slight impediment in speech.
Some of his bost singing of the
Jafternoon was. undoubtedly done in
‘Gounod's "Tu, Che Fatladdormentata’
from Faust, which he delivered with
some of the dramatic possiblities of
such a number.

Dental Talks
X-ray In Modern Dentistry.
ADVANCEMENT in modern dentis-
‘try has been due in a large meas-
ure to the use of the X-ray. Ten
years ago it was more unusual for
the dentist to have an X-ray ma-
chine than it 4s for him to have st
today. And for a dentist trained in
the new school to be without one 4s
like an old man without his
giasses, Indeed, this is | almost
Ierally true, for what ts the
Xray but the human eye intensified
so that it may see through and into
objects that, without it, would be im-
possible, Therefore, it cnn clearly be
seen how limited ‘our possibilities
were—for an example, to determine
the cause of a malady located at the
root of a tooth deeply embedded in
bone—before we had the X-ray.
In these days, when we hear so
much about focal Infection, the X-
ray very often shows Sts possibility
of arising from teeth which have
never given the slightest blt of pain
or discomfort, And’ when such teeth
were either treated or removed the
condition, which was believed to be
caused by focal infection, such as
rheumatism, — authritis, ' neuralgia,
headache and a general _lassitude
which could not be otherwise ac-
counted for, disappeared.
In almost every phase of the prac-
tice of dentistry, among which are
the removal of impacted teeth, brok-
en-down and retained roots. root
canal therapy, presence and location
of cysts, granulomas, ete, inflamma-
tlons of the various sinuses, the
Xray his proved to be of invaluable
For these and many other reasons
your dentist advises a full series of
X-rays each year to complete your
annual physical examination.

"Porgy has one most unusual quality. It grows on you. I came away from the first night disappointed. These preliminary boosts make us expect so much.
I realized, too, how right C. B. Cochran was when he said that the "Roll Away Clouds" song in "Virginia" would take the surprise away from the climax in Act I of "Porgy" where, with outstretched hands making long shadows, the Negroes crouch, singing a spiritual. Still, he and Jack Waller shook hands beside me, as he went in, so I suppose that is all right now!
A Play That Intrigues.
They, gradually, as people talked about the play, as the days went by, I found myself more and more intrigued.
"New York was just the same when 'Porgy' was produced," du Bose Heyward, one of the authors, told me. "After the first night the Theatre Guild executive thought it wanted a new ending. 'Porgy' was an experiment. It had failed to excite.
"My wife and I shut ourselves up in our hotel room for three days and rewrote the last act. We brought the policeman on again, and brought the patrol wagon back, and made the last curtain one of intense drama."
"Then, when we took our new ending to the theatre we found a queue at the box office. That was ten days after the first night. The play had caught on! So the new ending was never used. 'Porgy' ran for nearly a year, and then went on tour, a great success even in Pittsburgh."
I Hope I Am Wrong.
"Your play will run six weeks in London," I said.
Heyward looked disappointed. The first night reception was enthusiastic, he thought.
"That's nothing for London," I explained. "I should have called the aplause a persistent form of politeness. After 'Anna Christie' they were ten times as wild, and that only paid for six weeks."
Now I want to make my prophecy of six weeks wrong. I want to implore every person who loves the theatre to see "Porgy."
When, on the first night, John Van Druten me he saw it four times in New York he纵然 very thinking quite cynically how interested dramatists are in the theatre when they should be more interested in real life, which they seldom notice.
Now I can understand Van Druten's mood. "Porgy" intrigues you so.
words of George Stephenson, is that "It would be awkward for the boo."
A Haven for Poets.
Young Heyward was an insurance man who saw little tragedies around him; lives of the colored people of Catfish and the other black quarters of South Carolina; where he went to the McDowell Colony, where house young authors in an endowed institution which gives them a chance to work out their ideas. Young poets live there for a few dollars a week, and spend their days writing in the woods.
There he wrote down the little things he had seen in Carleston, made "Porgy" of it, and married a woman who dramatized the book.
The Crab Man.
The players came from Hurlem, where some of them had acted in Negro plays.
One of the "Porgy" actors
"Your play breaks all the rules of the theatre." I told Heyward. "Where you expect a climax, you get a diminuendo. When noise would excite there comes quiet. Characters don't stand out. Porgy is not a hero. His woman is not attractive enough." And so on...
Then I remembered "Journey's End." which broke every rule, and nearly broke every rival manager's heart.
"I want to show how the people in the play are carried away on the tide of life," explained Heyward. "I just wrote down what I had seen in the town to which I belong."
I am perplexed. I do not know if the "Porgy" methods will save the theatre, or destroy it. Will naturalism become, in the end, the only thing that the film cannot reproduce, or we go back to vivid, primitive drama to fight the drama of the screen?
As a story, "Porryy" has only its characters to distinguish it from a sordid tale of cockney life. Had Somerset Maugham's first book success, "Liza of Lambeth," been dragged to have been like this, except for the dish "The Likes of 'Ex' by poor Charles McEvoy, belonged to the same class. Will a London that always turns away from sordid English stories find a spell in the petty tragedy of Southern Negroes? I doubt it very much. Even the genius of Rouben Mamoulan, the producer, is used to keep his artifice on the monkey key. He spends his artifice on the lamp, which he reproduces with a master's reality. He puts his best work into shadows. Yes, it is great art! But is it the theatre? People Move to Rhythm.
Mamoulian's method is an amazing one. When you see the curtain go up on the last scene, you merely hear the sounds of people at work, moving, just leading little bits of ordinary life. Yet the rhythm to it all. It will be known that Mamoulian rehearsed all this to mimic, so that every sound carried on the rhythm! That is what grows on you when you see it several times. It falls on your ears like the rat-tat of a tom-tom.
G. Wolls uttered an opinion that explains, "It has at least six moments that I would like to see many times," he said.
Why English Drama Falls.
It gives you an idea of how the foreign theatre is always experimenting. That, and the way in which the foreign dramatist boldly faces the facts of life around him, is what is learned in the English theatre so far behind. Heyward was true to the things he knew. So fame came, in spite of him.
Lonsdale writes about dukes and baronets and people in an age, too, when they do not seem to matter any more. He records the pettiness of the cocktail and the lack of interest anybody except the silly people whose horizon is a "sidecar" and a sideslip.
In "Many Waters" Monckton Hoffe did some of the facts. In "Journey's Enemy" Sheriff faced all the facts. It is the Aberdeen playwright who, more than any, is going to reality for his themes.
"They want to make a movie of Porgy," said Heyward to me. "I wow, what it will be like."
Take money, I repiled, "but for heaven's sake go and look. That is what the wise do do."
"Akward for the Boo."
People with a sense of color can go to look on "Porgy" time after time. In whom there is a deep humanity would find each succeeding visit moreiring. Alas, they are few in number.

The play had was never used. "Porgy" ran for nearly great success even in Pittsburgh."
in words of George Stephenson, is that "It would be awkward for the boo." a Haven for Poets.
Young Heyward was an insurance man who saw little tragedies around him in the lives of the colored people in his row and the other black quarters in his town. He went to the McDowell Colony, where house young authors in an endowed institution which gives them a chance to work out their ideas. Young poets live there for a few dollars a week, and spend their days writing in the woods. There he wrote down the little things he had seen in Carleston, made "Porgy" of it, and married a woman who dramatized the book.
The Crab Man
The players came from Harlem, where some of them had acted in Negro plays.
One of the "Porgy" actresses came here in 1875 in "Uncle Tom's Cabin." The leading man is really a Harlem postman.
One or two of the company even contributed bits to "Porgy" at rehearsal. One Negro, whose father had been made a judge in Charleston when the black people seized the town after the Civil War, told Heyward how as a boy, he had heard a crab man calling his wares, so the bit was put in.
Now you see a white-coated, chef-capped cripple carrying a basket, while he yells:
"I'm talkin' 'bout devil' crabs.
I'm talkin' 'bout devil' crabs.
There are a score of little studies like that. Each one grows on you. You carry away a memory of fifty little bits.
An Amazing Start.
You could not carry away the opening words. Here they are:
"Enty yuh yeddy hucump Porgy ma done title um 'cause dat niggah nyam tummuch fish?"
"Cose e'nyam fish an' e'nyam Keep yuh mout off Porgy fore loose mhan han' an' ongizza'd yuh."
Not one person in the house, of course, understood a word of that.
Besides, on the first night, the players talked too quietly. Some parts of the audience only heard half the play. So the company had to be called together to learn to talk up.
Happy Family.
Most of them are now been together now for nearly two years, and they are such a family that, after they would all be disturbed, the news that the mother of one of the leading actresses had died while the company was in the boat coming over was kept from them all, until the curtain had fallen on the first London performance.
Real Life on the Stage.
The moment the curtain falls on a moving scene "orgy," the Negro players take up the lives naturally.
In one corner you see people making no attempt to hide that they are making love. In the center of stage, perhaps, dodging the scene shifters, is a group practicing variations of the latest dance.
One Negro is strumming a ukulele.
Near by, a boy is humming a song.
When a girl passes his voice grows loud as he sings a love passage to her. She laughs and on only, to meet another courter a few steps beyond.
They all laugh half the time or they are plunged into the profoundest gloom.
The undisguised love-making that goes on between the acts might shock a Londoner unused to seeing such things, except on Hampstead Heath. Then, suddenly, the bell rings, and, in a second, the actors are on the stage behaving just as naturally as actors and actresses as, a few seconds before, they were just ordinary hu-

man belongs, living their loves and little hatreds.
Only a man like Mamoullan can have managed a crowd like that.
I hesitate to say all this because I notice that Negroes are becoming more and more self-conscious. Their emergence from Submergedom makes them irritated about every word you print.
Even Florence Mills, you know, was annoyed at "Nigger Heaven." ridiculous and horrible thing that it was only possible to endure because people laughed at it mocking. I begin to realize what a society like the Theatre Guild might do for the English theatre. It started, you know, by getting a list of all the people who believed in good drama, and then it began to produce plays fit for those people to see. Now it is the most potent force in the American theatre.

"Being a constant reader and admirer of your articles, and of them to me from Long Acre, 'it always puzzles me to know why, in speaking of Negroes, or 'blacks,' as you call them, you always sort of make fun of the things they do. For example, you spoke about the blacks lying on their best clothes and walking up on the down the saloon deck, on board on Easter Sunday and, of course, in speaking about believing up and down as though they were on Fifth avenue and were whites, seemed very much uncalled for.
"Perhaps you do not know that Negroes dress up just as other people do, and parade up and down any of the principal streets most anywhere in the world. They do it right here in London, so I am sure there is nothing unusual about that.
I will you will see 'Porgy.' I hope you will read 'Nigger Heaven,' for, in doing so, perhaps you will be able to see through such exaggerated prognaga and to the same extent that has caused many of the prejudiced white Americans to wake up and realize that the Negro is an important person well worth considering in a serious way, and is not to be taken as a joke all the time, as you and a few others take him to be."
IVAN H. BROWNING.
Bellieve all that I have written has been meant in the way of sympathy. What on earth can you write?
A Page Torn from Life.
Now, you must go and see "Porgy"
and its story of a cripple who loved a
woman in her galler failings.
You must hear the spirituals and see
the storm that brings terror to the
Negroes' lives. You must exult in
their fun at a plenic, hear the black
band. You must study the colored
people's simple, childish ways, take
part in their joys, sympathize with
their deep sorrows, laugh at their
ideas of marriage and divorce.
"Porgy" is a page torn out of life.
Nothing is altered. Nothing is cut
down. It is the story of a people
upon whom the heel of Civilization
harmed, and who are trying to
raise their heads and look towards the sun.
The Heart of Things.
It is more human than all the dress-coated Negroes who sing syncopated tunes at 5500 a week. It is much nearer to the heart of things than any of those Negroes who are feted by present-day society. They will not like "Porgy." It will remind them a generation back. Caffish has disappeared now, in the sense that the Negroes have gone and it is an artist's story, its story, as told by du Bose Howard, will rank behind the earlier writings of Gorky and some of the studies of Tchekov. There is a Russian simplicity about it all. England's Play of the Week. When I think of "Before Midnight," the only other play of the week, a

Well Known Vaudevillian Passed Away Last Week
In the death of Arthur Allen last week, the stage has again lost an other well known worker who came here at the time Harlem was in the making and as a member of the team of Allen and Morton made a big hit in the old Crescent Theatre in the day the Martinson and Nibur were laying siege funds which later helped to build the Eafayette on Seventh avenue.
Allen died last Tuesday night at the Harlem Hospital and was buried on Friday. His wife looked after funeral arrangements, assisted by Gus Smith, where the deceased roomed up to the time he was taken to the hospital, and Bob Slater of the C. V.
In later years Allen was with Jack Wiggins and Jimmie Marshall, winding up a member of the team of Allen and Marsh, his wife Helen being his partner. The latter was also named as his beneficiary in collecting his insurance and whatever else remained of his estate.

Singing His Way Through Life
From the London Standard
"ONE day you'll pay to hear me sing," George Dewey Washington used to tell his fellow waiters on the American railroad cars when they feeringly advised him to "can that noise" as he sang to an accompaniment of clattering dishes and the clang of the rushing, swaying train.
That was only a few years ago, but now George Dewey Washington is one of the most famous colored singers in America.
Wrapped in a huge, fluffy Teddy Bear fur coat, he sat in his dressing room at the Palladium—where he is this week making his first appearance on the English stage—and talked about his life—a life in which he has known all kinds of varying fortunes.
"My father," he said. "was the first colored minister in Salt Lake City, and when he died my sister and I were still at school. There was very little money for mother, and I had to turn out and work.
The Breakwinner.
"Then my sister met with an acce- dent, and for four years—from the time I was 14, I was fifteen—I was the breadwinner of the family. George Washington is only $1 now, but till he won success as a singer he earned his living at all kinds of jobs.
A waiter on the railroad, in restaurants and in cafes.
A barber.
A shauunteur.
A cutleryer and riveter.
A ship's steward.
And all the time he was singing.
"I knew I had a voice," he said, "and I was determined that one day I would be a singer.
"When I was in Seattle I started studying and learned to sing in Italian and Jewish.
"I was in a job all the time, and then I worked my passage as a steward in a boat to San Francisco.
His Chance.
"Then I met Paul Ash, the orchestra director, and he gave me my first real chance. I was engaged to sing at the Granada Theatre for four weeks, and stayed there forty-two.
"Then I went to New York, where

I was engaged by Lew Leslie to appear with Florence Mills in "Blackbird's."
"Recently I have been appearing at the de luxe picture theatres in America.
"They put on wonderful variety shows as an additional attraction to the 'movies' and I suppose that I am rated as the biggest draw nowadays among these cinema-variety acts."
A Hustle.
It was within half an hour of arriving in London that Washington made his first appearance on the English stage.
He had arrived at Liverpool in the afternoon and was due to go to Birmingham to appear at a music hall for a preliminary week.
"It was some shock and some rush," said Washington, "but we made it. The orchestra had no chance for a rehearsal and the band parts were pushed down to them just as I was going on." When he heard the cheers of the gallery, he saw the way of English audiences, did not realize that he had "gone big." "I thought," he said, "that I had got 'the bird'."

After a careful study of the missionaries making the race for Broadway with their latest presentations, I have come to the conclusion that half the time some of the producers of these shows are guided not by experience or what they should know to be the desired things in a play to hold the attention of the theatregoers, but an empty hope built on misguided emotions which they think will hold the fancy of a people trained to "Shuffle Along," "Peng" and "Blackbirds."
From what we have gathered we can readily see that this thing of holding the fancy of the people patronizing Broadway is not a proposition of hastily throwing together a bunch of vaudeville performers and then mingling audiences to come out and applaud, but a serious proposition of joining together something out of the ordinary, then making the attempt.
Some time ago when Ralph Cooper presented his "Junior Blackbirds" at the Lafayette Theatre we were told that Cooper had contracts to take the show to the Colony Theatre. We had our doubts but refrained from saying anything, but did point out to some of the actors that the show would get as far as 135th street, which it later did by going into the Lincoln under the paternal guidance of Mr. Schiffman, who placed this sundown section of the big city with announcements to the effect that it was the new edition of the "Junior Blackbirds."
Imagine something that was not yet old being new! Believing the billing put out by well meaning but misguided press agents, many of our producers come to believe that they are really headed for Broadway and are confident they can and hardy believe it themselves. Then comes the awakening. They discover that they made a terrible mistake in believing the billing which states they are going to Broadway and after a heart breaking week or two, sometimes months if they can discover an angle with more depth than they can seem to tell us why they failed and point out "Able's Irish Rose" as an example of how a show with enough money to tide itself over until the break for the better comes to make "it." And so we find Robert Garland of the New York Evening Telegram giving us an earful on our new Broadway possibilities.
Good enough to show the trend of good soho to the broadway sometimes as so many readers are of the belief that we can see nothing but the best in the many abortive attempts. Read it and weep:
"Messin' Around" Meanders as Mixture Without Meaning.
By ROBERT GARLAND.
The all-colored something-or-other which has shown up at the Hudson Theatre is no great shakes as entertainment. A faint carbon copy of Low Leslie's "Blackbirds", Louis Isaac's "Messin' Around" meanders meaninglessly from pillow to post and from eight-thirty until eleven.
In the first place, there's no pace to the offering. Scene after scene, episode after episode, act after act, it lags. More than once it lags unnecessarily. Even if the interior of the Hudson Theatre is depressing and the librettists and composers go from Harlem nothing we must work on, there is no reason why "Messin' Around" should sound as if it were being made up as it goes along.
In the second place, there's not a good laugh in an evening full, Silin Thompson and Billy McLaurin are unfunny a pair of comedians as their own devices they fay down without one good boon to their credit.
In the third place, the music is easily forgettable. The "Your Love Is All I Crave" number isn't as good for your mind as your "Your Mind Right On It" is better. So is "Get Away From My Window," sung for all its worth by Audrey Thomas and Billy McLaurin. What's left, is "Skiddle-De-Scow" with you in mind, is "Digga-Daou" and "Mississippi Meadow" which puts you in mind of "Forgy." And an energetic colored girl known as Cora L. Redd. And a boxing contest between "the one who exposed female boxers in America. Entering the media Wheldlin. As a matter of fact, "Messin' Around" just won't do.
Over in Brooklyn's Majestic Theatre there's still another all-colored something-or-other, "Darkwood Affairs" is the piece's title and its readying itself for Broadway. Her lyrics and music are by the Messrs. Howard, Brown, Smith and Ship; the dances, has been staged under the personal direction of the authors. Jack Strouse is presenting it and cash customers are said to be giving it a friendly hand. Word comes that chorus, principals everybody else in "Darkwood Affairs" are opening of the show and continue to strut and caper with agreeable abandon until the final curtain saves them from what, in one reviewer's eyes, seems like a concerted effort to commit hara-kiri with a musical accompaniment. These colored boys and girls like to dance and, because they do, they like to the highest prosecution. When they stop dancing, they sing.
In between the dancing and the singing there is a bit of plot. Garland Howard, Mae Brown and Speedy Hathaway fill the principal roles, while Hathaway Noels, a "heavyweight fumaker" and Red Lincoln, a "promising young stepper" help things along. The character is spoken of "not particularly distinguished," although "Sally Ann," "Elliza" and "Telling My Troubles to the Moon" aren't what you might call bad. And a near-spiritual entitled "Walk Together." They do say that "Darktown Affairs" might get along with new costumes, new scenery and most expert direction.

"The Jazz Regiment" is based on doings of the Marine Corps ten years ago. There is a cast of fifty-eight. At the head of the fifty-eight are John Mason, Dusty Fletcher, Gertrude Saunders and a pair of horses. A Baltimore reviewer insists that "the work brings in, in a volcanic way, the excitement of the Negro, his frzenized unsophistication and his native inhibitions." And, although I'm not sure what such elegant language means, I do know it's complimentary. In two acts, divided into nine scenes, "The Jazz Regiment" shifts in setting from the Southland to the
Learning How To Be A Negro
BY FRANK WILSON, who plays the name part in "Porpy," the play of Negro life, at His Majesty's Theatre, London.
In the Daily Express.
In the great cities all the world over where black and white men live side by side there exists today a barrier which has arisen between the two races, exterminating the root of friendship—the barrier of blood.
In America, where I come from, it is nation-wide. When nearly seventy years ago, the North and South entered into their bitter war over the abolition of slavery, a seething hatred for the Negroes arose in the South, and afterwards spread, though in a lesser degree, to the North, which has only come dimmed with the passing of years.
Every Negro child born across the water must eventually and inevitably awake to the fact that he is "different" from the little white children with whom he plays so gallly in the street.
As the first few years of his life draw on and he passes to the stage of reasoning, little incidents, almost unnoticed gestures, remarks overheard in the street, or curses insults, come to him to make him wonder.
He runs to his mother for he cannot understand and, with futility of a gesture, remarks her child from the inevitable, she puts off the evil hour of its awakening to the color consciousness of its inferterity but sooner or later the truth dawns, and then the child begins the lesson of learning how to be black.
For the first few years of my life I played and lived happily, blissfully unconscious of caste distinction.
Then my father and mother tiled and became an orphan in a juvenile institution, and with the child was ensconced within those four strict walls, but chiefly delinquents—orphans of the storm of humanity.
It is impossible to describe how kindly the Negro children were treated at that great institution. All through the days when I have felt my race prejudice souring my heart, have had insults of deep depression of caste hatred heavy on my soul, the tenderness and justice which we black children received at that home have lied me over such dark shadows.
And so, coming from the North and being given a fair chance, that many black children never receive at all, how I courage how to be black and how to overcome the injustice of its disadvantage.
The awakening came gradually. I remember when I was little more than six years old being asked by a little white boy friend to go with him and his parents to listen to a hand which used to play every evening in the great Union Square of New York. I went—joyously, to come among the motionless and embarrassment of the parents at having to be seen with a black child.
Even here in England there is a little prejudice against our colored New York not long ago arrived from New York not long ago ducted by arrangement to a certain hotel in London where we were told we would be expected. Whether it was the hotel or the bar of us was too much for the proprietor, or whether it was that the

AT THE LINCOLN
The Lincoln Theatre this week is offering its patrons the best entertainment which the new management of the 135th street theatre has yet presented. The show is entitled "Chocolate Music Box" and from every point of view the delight of nighttime's afternoon or evening's entertainment.

At any rate, admission was at first refused. And then, our plight being explained, we were admitted and asked to have our meals in the basement. I must continue disappointed.
Perhaps, though, we had expected just a little too much.

AT THE RENAISSANCE
D'Artagnan and his three musketeers are riding again in Douglas Fairbanks' newest picture, "The Iron Mask," which comes to the Renaissance Theatre for one week, beginning Saturday, May 4. In this production, Fairbanks' two musketeers, stirring action from start to finish, that characterizes all of this master actor's pictures, is seen. Mystery, thrills and hair-raising scenes, together with many mirthful sequences, all superbly acted and talked by a strong supporting cast, make this a Fairbanks masterpiece. "The Iron Mask" is the male chorus whose delightful singing is so lifelike that the listener expects to see the characters burst forth on the screen. Swirls, wits and wiles-D'Artagnan and his fearless musketeers defy them all in a series of daring exploits to save the crown during the stormy days of a tempestuous seventeenth century. Do not miss seeing and hearing this. "Interference," this week's all-talking attraction at the Renaissance Theatre, is pleasing hundreds each performance.
AT THE LAFAYETTE
The most powerful Vitanphone talking picture that has been produced since the perfection of this marvelous invention is undoubtedly "The Barker," which began a week's engagement at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday as an unusually enjoyable stage and screen program. The stage attraction being presented with "The Barker" and is as delightful a revue as has been presented hereabouts. "The Barker" tells the story of "Nifty," the world's champion circus and carnival announcer, rough and ready fighter, the idol of the women of the show and the proud and devoted father who grew up a better man than his see. When this young man "falls for" the circus diving Queen Nifty's heart is broken. "The Barker" is replete with rousing fights on the carnival grounds with side-splitting comedy, with tender romance and heart-touching pathos. The talking as well as the acting of the characters, Common, roothy Mackall and Douglas Fairbairn, make this picture one which will never be forgotten.
"Joy Bont," which is also being presented this week, is a fast-moving tuneful revue which brought storms of laughter and applause from the audience. The musical comedy includes Silverton Four, Billy Higgin, TJay/Brown, Re

The Lafayette Next Week
Texas Gulman, who was recently acquitted in a Federal court of charges brought by the Government in connection with her conduct of the world's most exclusive night club, will be seen on the set of the latest Viphone talking drama, "Queen of the Night Clubs." This tells a story of murder and intrigue against a background of the world's most beautiful girls and New York's fastest night life, and of a mother who sacrifices all that life holds dear for the sake of her son.
"Queen of the Night Club" offers those who see it not only the pleasure of seeing and hearing a gripping mystery drama, but of spending an afternoon or evening in Tex Guinan's famous Salon Royale—where even pikers spend hundreds of dollars an evening.
"At the Breakfast Dance" is the title of the musical comedy which will be presented with "Queen of the Night" by the Extraordinary Ensemble Four, the Hightower Trio Pugh McDonald, Dobby Harris, Chick Fisher, Bernard Addison's Jazz Band and a chorus of Chicago benignies will be part of the cast. "At the Breakfast Dance" is being sung by K. O. Harris.
AT THE ALHAMBRA
A million-dollar marriage that turns out to be a double deception is the amusing situation in "Trimming Trimmers," the comedy-drama at the Alhambra Theatre this week.
Ted Blackman and Violet Speed are the young couple who are geared up unite to go for George W. Shilshire is the groom's make-believe father and Susie Sutton impersonate the bride's mother.
Manda Randolph is the owner of a fake sanatorium where the schemers meet and Barrington Carter is the crooked doctor. The arrival of a detective, player by George Randol, a character of cement and the exposure of the clever "trimmers."
The Maytime Revue abounds in laughable sketches involving Sandy Burns, Pigmeat Markham, an eccentric comedian named Hack Back and others. There are songs by the night club favorite, Alta Oates, Tillie Marshall and Elda Young, and the sixteen Alhambra shows have a "free for all" dancing competition.
"Golden Snackles" is the picture romance, with Priscilla Bonner as star. At the Wednesday midnight show the Screen Club has a big theatre party.
The Alhambra Next Week
"Wild Mexico," the drama at the Alhambra next week, deals with the adventures and perils of an American newspaper reporter who stumbles into all kinds of trouble, gets the best of a much-feared "man," and wins the action and sensation of Mexico. The drama is guaranteed to be full of action and sensation as well as romance and fun. It will be the first time the Alhambra Players have invaded Mexico. "The French Cafe" is the name as well as the scene of next week's musical in Paris' In Paris' with a 160 of laughs, with plenty of georgeous girls. "Love Is Love," with a special cast of international celebrities, will be the picture feature of the triple program.
Theatres and Performers — Big and Little

Editor's Note: The Associated Negro Press is pleased to present here with the first installment of a history of the Negro in the theatre in American, compiled and written by Mr. Leonard. This history is not complete and, inasmuch as it represents in great part the writing down of facts that exist vaguely and variously in the minds of persons who remember "way back when," some of whom may be more familiar with a representative may differ from the facts as remembered by some others. Bpt the Associated Negro Press believes that with the co-operation of Mr. Leonard it is performing a service in making available this much of a fairly authenticated picture of the Negro's history, and with the nit-leg play, "Harlem," which is now showing both in New York and Chicago.
Negro Histrionism in U. S.
B. G. Leonard
WHEN "Hate'em" first revealed its penumbra drama in the middle of last February, two of its ingredients stood out, above all others as conspicuously as sore thumbs on a bank teller: One was its genius direction by a 24-year-old chap named Clyster Esther Blankle and raw, but wholly talented, cast of sixty-odd dark-skinned players. The latter fact, especially, was cause for no small wonderment among theatre commentators. What made them sit up in their sents was the rattle-bang noise accompanying the shattering of the noose with the Negro is almost entirely without honor historically in this country.
For, with the possible exception of those in "Porgy," the colored actor was supposed to have been in comparative dramatic obscurity. Nor could he be portrayed well, as his stamina was that spiralistic pass. His stamina was ligion and its pistil southern poverty; both merely puppeted him. But at no time before "Harlem" was the Negro supposed to have expressed himself in the terms and type of drama best unintentionally recognized by the white audience. With such conclusions about the Negro actor in America history is inclined to differ so far back as 1759, for the man whom that century acclaimed as the greatest Othello of all bridges, who was born in this country, now lives in a drige never performed here, confining his talents mostly to English audiences. At any rate, the tradition is handed down that royalty often swooped or was rendered limp by the dramatic inaction. Thus the Negro of today ought to be without some hereditary acting genius.
However, there appears to be a great hiatus in Aframerican dramatic talent bridging Ira Aldridge and the first colored performers of any import. Perhaps there were earlier attempts to worship the goddess of the earth, none has been handed down for the records prior to the year 1870. The very first, which the old folks and other au-

thoritative persons of Harlem can call to mind are the Hyer slaters, who thrived in all the western cities where the colored population was sizable and theatre-going. The Hyer slaters had been well known as concert singers who were able to dance to the popularity grade in white music circles prompted their producing venture. With Dad Lucas as their mainstay, they presented a limited repertoire in which the most popular fare was "The Octoonor" and "Out of Bondage," Dad Lucas later became famous under the name of the uncle Uncle Tom. But the most versatile member of the troupe, they say, was one Tom Brown, whom many old colored women still remember with fluttering heart.
Knowledge of other Negroid dramatic enterprises is not available again until 1897, when Lew Payton, who now plays Tom Brown in Harlem, attempted an all-colored version of "Uncle Tom Cabin," with himself playing Uncle Tom.
The beginning of the twentieth century was more prodigious in nurturing colored theatricals. Between 1901 and 1904 was crystallized what were perhaps the most important and practical movements toward the realization of acting equality. In a way they might be called the eminipotors of the Negro theater, but in a training school, his beginning as a potent factor in American drama, a beginning which only his present status on Broadway makes manifest. These were the efforts of the brothers Tutt (Saleh Whitney and J. Homer) and J Ed Green. The former were actors who decided to branch out as producers. So Saleh Tutt-Whitney, as he was known, was the president of Liberia, a musical comedy, and also played its blackface comedian. This toured and retoured all the available colored theatres in the country for about five years. Upon its cessation Salem Tutt wrote "Black Tutt's Troubadours" and toured it until 1908. In 1909 the brothers Tutt settled down to the experiment of a comedy with the idea of honoring one dramatic offering in every four musicals. The experiment was short-lived, lasting less than a full season, and shortly afterward the Tutt returned to musical things exclusively.

LOS ANGELES, Cal.-For each great white star of the movie world there is an accompanying luminary whose light falls to attract the public gaze or to stir the public acclaim, but which is nevertheless just as certain in its glow as that of the most brilliant Gretar Garbo or Chara Bow or Mary Pickford. The stars who live in a sort ofclipse, are the colored mails of the public's darlings.
There are more than two dozen of these colored mails, so-called, in Hollywood, whose position, ordinarily a mental one, is most often vested with those responsibilities one attributes to a secretary, assistant business manager, or bodyguard. Once they are found to be efficient and trustworthy, these colored mails become the con-

Carlton "Y" Notes
The big financial campaign ended on Friday night, April 26, with all the workers gathered at the St. George Hotel for the final report dinner. When all reports had been made a total of $2,297,910 had been pledged, leaving a balance of $987,577 still to be raised. Chairman Edwin P. Maynard announced that a continuation committee would keep on working to secure the required balance, having until Dec. 31, 1929, to reach the total. The Carlton Avenue Branch did a fine piece or work in the campaign, the men's division, young men's division and boys' division all contributing spendily to the unified effort. Our people, mindful of the great work that was being done by Queens Association, pledged consistently to the campaign.
During the final week of the campaign, Kenneth Dodson, a member of the boys' department, spoke at the army army and made a big hit. On Friday night, April 26, at the final report meeting, he received from Mr. Frank C. Munson, president of the Brooklyn and Queens Association, a pledge of $100, to be reported in the sum raised in the mine war in recognition of the speech he made on Tuesday afternoon, April 23.

Stomach Disorders First Revealed by Coated Tongue
Stomach Disorders First Revealed by Coated Tongue
Your tongue is nothing more than the upper end of your stomach and intestines. It is the first thing your doctor looks at. It tells at a glance the condition of your digestive system—and physicians say that 90% of all sickness starts with stomach and bowel trouble. A coated tongue is a danger signal of those digestive disorders which lead to so many kinds of serious illness. It tells why the least exertion tires you out; why your tongue paines the bowels, gas, sour stomach, dizzy spells. Coating on the tongue is a sign that you have malnutrition—cine which has held thousands who were physical wrecks from stomach and bowel troubles—who had "tried everything" in vain and about given up hope. T兰acle contains no mineral drugs; it is made of barks, herbs and roots. Get a bottle from your druggist today. Your money back if it doesn't help you.

WILSON—Edward. Departed this life
April 20, 1922.
One year has passed away
Since that and day
What we loved was called away.
We loved you then and you still.
We miss you now and always will.
But we know that we will see you again
Some bright day in that beautiful land on high.
FAMILY.
WHITAKER, James A—In sad and loving remembrance of my dear husband, who departed this life two years ago, April 20, 1927.
Days of sadness still come over me,
Tears of sorrow often flow
Who left me just two years ago.
No one knows the silent heartaches.
Only those who have lost can tell
Of the grief that is borne in silence
To the one I loved so well.
Devoted wife,
EVA WHITAKER,
and Relatives
IN LOVING MEMORY of my beloved
mother, who died May 3rd, 1938.
Eternal rest grant to her, O Lord.
Daughter, Son-in-Law and
Grandchildren.

Pate, 1912 Western Ave.
Knoxville, Tenn., writes:
"Last year, while in college, I was studying unusually hard. I found that I was, getting thin, and that my health was not very good. I felt tired and worn-out. Instead of my studies being a pleasure, they were a task. It was so trying not to be able to enjoy anything.
"As I knew Cardul was a good tonic, I decided to take it. After taking Cardul, I felt so much better and stronger. I was able to join in all the school activities, and really enjoy them. I took three bottles in all, and gladly recommend it to other girls."

Wherever possible Trade With Stores in Harlem That Do Not
Practice Discrimination in the Selection of Their Employees.
F™, of the readers of this
release have ever -heard
of Dr. Daniel S. Lamb. His
life and labors were limited
mainly to the District of Co-
lumbia. He typified and em-
bodied the spirit of philan-
thropy which was born of the
Civil” War. Shortly after
graduating from college he
enlisted in the Union Army
and became attached to the
hospital service and devoted
his long life to the sacred
cause of health. He became
curator of the Medical Mu-
scum and ranked among the
best known autopsical ex-
perts of the country. The
Post-mortem examination of
President Garfield was pet-
formed oy him,
When the Howard University
Medical School was organized, Dr.
Lamb became mostly attached to
the teaching staff, where he served
for fifty years as’ professor of an-
atomy. A large proportion of the
Negro doctors of the country learn-
ed thelr knowledge of the human
structure under his tuition. He
was retired from this chair in 1923,
on account of advanced age,
Dr. Lamb brought to his work not
only ‘selentific equipment, but also
that philanthropic attitude which
was absolutely necessary to plant
. °
Crime and Liberty
THE FIRST JUVENILE COURT in this country
was established in Chicago thirty years ago. Today
there are only two states without some law providing
for a special court for children. The National Proba-
tion Association is not satisfied with the juvenile courts
of many states, but at least there is a general attempt
to cope with the delinquency of children.
IN THE PAST THIRTY YEARS, however, juve-
nile delinquency has grown faster than the attempts to
curb it, Penologists say that there are more persons
of a tender age convicted of serious crime than ever
before. Some people blame the movies, some blame
the schools, and others blame the home.
A PROFOUNDER REASON is the change in so-
cial philosophy. Children formerly were taught obedi-
dence; now they are taught liberty and individualism.
A parent, in too many homes, is no longer a revered
authority; he or she is just another boy or girl, to be
addressed by the children as Jack or Mamie. The chil-
dren grow up with their heads full of liberty and empty
of discipline, with the notion that they should do as
they please, as long as they can get away .with it.
w is color prejudice so
much stronger among
English-speaking peoples than
among the peoples of other
tongues?
Recently "The News of the
World” (English), the world’s
most sensational journal, and
consequently the best circu-
fated, in a lengthy article,
wanted to know what Englund
is going to do with the large,
and increasing number of mu-
latto children which are being
born in the British Isles, espe-
cially in such centers as Car-
diff, Liverpool, Bristol, Glas-
gow and the East End of Lon-
ion,
All of these places are seaports,
and even before the war Negroes
from Africa and the West Indies
came in large numbers as sailors,
and many of them, for one reason
or another, remained. With the
war they came in still larger num-
bers, until in places like Cardiff
and Liverpool the Negro colonies
number several thousand souls.
What has happened in these
places? Just as the white man in
Africa, or Asia, or Oceanica, large-
ly because of the absence of white
women took the native women, so
the Negro in the British Isles, be-
cause of the absence of colored
omen, has had to take the white
woman, Perhaps, some will add
that this is indeed a pleasant neces-
sity for the Negro, but that is a re-
tort that culs with equal force
either way. In ‘America, for in-
stance, even with an abundance of
white women, the white man can
not be said to detest a change of
sexual menu.
‘Now, so far as the mulatto child
tsconcerned, if we turn to the Con-
tinent we find a similar situation.
The number of mulatto children in
France is perhaps~indeed, it cer-
tainly is—greater than in England.
In all the French seaports to which
‘Negroes come, like Havre, Marsell-
les, Bordeaux, the percentage of
mixed-blood children is large. Yet
to the best of my knowledge they
are not regarded as a problem,
The same holds true of other
European seaports lke Antwerp,
Rotterdam, Hamburg, and even in
far Stockholm. In these places the
child of so-called mixed blood is
regarded as the human being he ts,
find not as a problem as in England.
And the British of all peoples
ought to be tolerant in this mat-
ter of race mixing. In the British
West Indies, the white soldiers sta-
toned In places like Kingston, New
castle, Bridgetown, have been pro-
ducing illegitimate children for
centuries past. The same holds
true In India, Africa, and all over
the vast British Empire. Suppose
the people in these regions begin
asking questions similar to that
Posed by “The News of the World”
and other English papers,
‘Tt has been no easy task for some
of the poor Negro mothers in the
West Indies and Atrica to rear the
children: of transient Englishmen.
‘The number of mulatto children
left by Negroes in England ts infi-
nitesimal in comparison with that
left by the English in the countries
in England?
‘The fact is that England is the
only country in Europe today in
which one finds open color preju-
dice. I say open, because I believe
there Is a certain degree of color
Prejudice to be found in all the Eu~
Yopean countries. But I would
wager that a dark Negro could
travel the length tnd breadth of
the Continent without ever meet-
ing a single instance of it, that is
to say. he would never be refused
admittance into any’ public place,
high or low, on the simple ground
of color, provided he kept out of
(OF coset. provided. he Kept out of
The New Census
IN _1930 the National Government will take a cen-
sus. This census is expected to reveal, among other
things, the number of unemployed people in the coun-
try. Whatever else it does, we hope it will give accurate
figures of the number of colored people in the United
States. Most Negroes assert that the Negro popula-
tion is 12,000,000; white publications put the figure at
about 10,500,000. This difference of 1,500,000 is too
much.
IT HAS BEEN CHARGED that census-takers are
not careful in counting Negroes, that in the South they
often list fair-skinned Negroes as Caucasian and tan-
colored folk as mulattoes, and then report that the Ne-
gro population has shrunk. It seems, too, that in some
remote places the Negroes have never heard of a cen-
sus. There is a story of a census-taker who went to an
out-of-the-way Negro farm, and being asked what he
wanted, replied: “I want to take your census.”

‘‘Pop-Botile’’ Heflin
THE ALABAMA WOMAN'S LEAGUE for White
Supremacy, 30,000 strong, has passed resolutions de-
nouncing Senator Heflin of Alabama and repudiating
him as their representative in any sense. They deplore
his foolish and fanatical assaults upon the Roman Cath-
olic Church and are indignant at his attempt to make
the United States Senate a party to his campaign of
religious bigotry. It will be recalled that Senator Heflin
recently attacked Catholicism in a speech in Massachu-
setts and that someone in the crowd hurled a pop-bottle
at his sacred person.
THE ALABAMA women are right, so far as they
go. Tom Heflin, like Blease, Vardaman and Tillman,
is unworthy to sit in the Senate of a civilized nation.
His only claims to distinction are his anti-papal diatribes
and the bullying of Negro elevator boys in hotels. He
is little more than a braying ass.
YET THE ALABAMANS, though right in thie one
instance, are as blamable in general as Heflin. If they
were not as asinine as he they would not have elected
him to the Senate, as they have done and probably will
do again. They have as much religious Prejudice as
he; they object only to his undignified way of express-
ing it. The name of their organization, “league for
white supremacy,” betrays the same narrow-minded-
ness for which they are censuring Heflin, the same con-
dition of mind which gives rise to all kinds of hate
and bigotry. Essentially he is one of them and one
with them. He is not disturbed by the burning of a
pregnant Negro woman at the stake, but when some-
one throws a pop-bottle at him it is an atrocity that
should be avenged by the United States Senate. _

If we turn back into history we
find the same record about the
English speaking peoples. ‘The
auumber of really great Negroes pro
auced in English” speaking lands
has been very few. Perhaps three
or four like Booker 'T. Washington
and Frederick Douginss in America,
and Ira Aldridge in England. The
pressure against them has been too
great.
‘Turn to the Continent, however,
with {ts far smaller percentage of
Negroes and one finds figures like
the three Dumases, the Chevalier
de St. Georges, Pushkin, Leo Afrl-
canus, Amo, Juan Latino, General
Honnivatoy, St. Maurice, General
‘Dodd and others.
The same holds true tn parts of
the New World where English ts
Not spoken. The great Negroes of
the New World have sprung not
out of the land in which they have
been most abundant, that is the
United States, but out of the Latin
lands. A Negro lke Vincente
Guerrero, who was at once the
George Washington and the Abra~
ham Lintoln of Mexico, would not
have been possible in an English-
speaking land,
Recently I had brought home to
me in £ Nery striking manner the
very great difference between the
attitude of the French and that of
the white American in this matter
of color.
I happened to be in a high-class
bar very much patronized by. white
Americans with some _ foreign
frlends of mine when a party of
white Americans came in and sat
down at the table next to us,
‘One of them in very smooth and
polite language addressed himself
to me, and soon we were in con-
versation. Presently he gave me
‘his business card and invited me to
call on him et his bank. He was
one of the officials of @ French
bank with an American depart-
ment of which he was the director,
Next he gave me his personal
gard and again urging me to call on
him sald that whenever I came T
was to send in my name and he
would be sure to welcome me in
Person. After such pressing and
‘Apparently cordial invitation, I sald
to myself that the least T could
do Would be to drop in on him
when T iappened to be in the
heighborhood.
‘Some weeks later I happened to
medical alumni of Howard Univer-
sity who came under his instruc-
ton, by subscription, placed a brass
tablet in the new Medical Building
as a slight memorial of his life's
Inbor of service and love.
‘The passing of Dr. Lamb reminds
us that the generation whose spirlt
he typified has all but wholly pass
ed from the stage of action. The
work which they inaugurated is
pow falling into other hands. The
New England philanthropists who
founded and fostered Howard, Fisk,
Atlanta, Lincoln, Shaw and the
rest of our schools and colleges
have rested from thelr labors and
thelr works do follow them.
‘Thelr works must now be carried
on largely by thelr Negro disciples
whom they inftlated into their se-
eret_and method. Transition al-
ways Involves loss,
‘The black disciples have not al-
ways caught the full measure of
the spirit of sacrifice and altruls-
tle devotion which characterized
thelr white preceptors, Indeed, the
philanthropists who’ inaugurated
this work represented the highest
expression of altruistic devotion
which America has witnessed. They
touched the highest attained level
of religion and philanthropy focus-
sing on a human task.
‘The new Negro educator misses
all but wholly the religious convie~
ton and devotion of the philan-
thropists whom he succeeds, He
must formulate an {deal in the
midst of a time when ideals are
crumbling. Our youth in high
be in the neighborhood. The fact
is that I had been to the home of
a titled French lady, one of the big
scelal figures of Parls—one whose
social position it would be impos~
sible for me to exaggerate. I had
visited her on an invitation by
telephone, asking me to drop in
and see her at any time. Recelv-
ing me as she would any other of
her guests, we chatted on various
toples for some time and on leay-
ing I thought I would drop in to
see the bank director.
Arriving there the French door-
man ushered me into a luxurious
Office Atted up as a miniature
Stock Exchange, and went off to
call my host. Presently he arrived,
and after looking very Kenly at me
I saw a faint gleam of recognition
on his face and he offered me a
Ump hand. Perhaps it may have
been I who offered my hand first.
But I could not but be struck by
the coldness of his manner. I
‘stood there with my hat and coat
and a couple of books in my arms,
and he stood beside me, and al-
though there were chalrs aplenty
he did not invite me to sit. Quite
the opposite of the reception T had
Just had at the home of the titled
lady. ‘
‘My first thought now was how to
beat a graceful retreat in the quick
est time, while wondering why he
had ever invited me. In order not
to show my embarrassment I be-
gan to chat about what I knew of
the banking business In America,
then I suggested that he might be
very busy and that I might be tak-
Ing up his time.
But he assured me that he wasn't
busy, then passed a few more min-
utes’ of forced conversation, after
which he asked to be excused.

ROPE AND FAGGOT—A Biography of Judge Lynch.
By Walter White. Published’ by Alfred A. Knopf, New York.
Price $3.00.
O the eyes of civilized foreigners this country presents a
T curious spectacle. America teaches her children to shud-
der when they read of Nero and Caligula, of Bloody
Mary in England. of the Spanish Inquisition, of the Turks and
the Tartars, of the savage Indians and the fiendish Cossacks.
Deveutly they thank God that such things are past, that the
age of torture is gone, and with clenched fists and flashing
eyes they resolve that it shall never come again. Then they
go out and seize a Negro woman who has protested against
Me Iynching of her husband,
‘They tie her to a tree and soak
her clothes in gasoline. They light
matches, and in a moment the wo-
man is wrapped in flames. It hap-
pens that she {s about to bear 9
child, ‘They rip her body open.
‘The child gives two feeble cries
and is ground to death under a
man's heel. They dig a rough
grave for the woman's charred
body and for the headstone they
use a whisky bottle with a half-
smoked cigar stuck in its neck.
Such {s Southern chivalry in the
twentieth century of Our Lord.
‘These are the people who call
themselves the finest flower of hu-
manity, brave men and angelle
women. These are the people who

Tuberculosis in Children
UBERCULOSIS often begins in early childhood. Unlike
T most so-called children’s diseases, tuberculosis is a lasting

as to appear to be asleep or latent’ until the early adult years
are reached. By proper care, tuberculosis of childhood may be

pale; he may tire easily and prefer
to sit quletiy rather than romp
with other children; his appetite
may be poor. All of these symp.
toms, however, may be due to oth-
er causes.
‘There are two tests now used by
doctors that help to discover the
condition. One {s the tuberculin
test, @ simple, harmless, practical

whether or not there are tubercle

Children who live or have lived
fn company with adults who have
tuberculosis ‘should be carefully
examined by a doctor and the ex-

netion.
‘Such an examination should be
made also of undernourished chil-
dren who cannot be brought to

Mr. White brings out many un-
familiar facts when he outlines the
history of lynching. He neglects
to say thet this great American
industry got its name from one
Lynch, who was elther its first vic-
tim or its first perpetrator. He
says that the first thing that might
be called a lynching was the tar-
ring and feathering of a man in
Massachusetts n 1773.
Before the Civil War the lynch-
ing of Negroes was comparatively
rare. White men were the victims
because Negroes were too valuable.
‘Men sued and recelved damages
for the killing of their slaves. In
fact, slaves were not allowed to do
dangerous work, such as unloading
ships or draining swamps. ‘This
was left to white men, whose lives
hed no cash value.
Alter the Civil War, therefore,
the number of Negro lynchings
rose rapidly. ‘The South was fu-
rious at its defeat (tt still $s) and st
wreaked its wrath upon the Negro.
‘The South's excuse was that it
feared Negro backwardness; but ts
seal fear was that the Negro, with
his habit of working and the inspi-
ration of freedom, would forge
ahead of the lazy’ arlstocrats and
the shiftiess poor whites. The
poor whites especially have been

Kept themselves down, making It
ensy for the capitalistic class to ex-
ploit them. Thus, economics has a
Jarge part in lynching, as it has in
everything else. And’ the South
has ‘pald heavily; it is behind the
other parts of the country econom-
feally and culturally.
‘The cloak behind which lynching
has tried to hide itself ts the pro-
tection of white womanhood, which
Mr, White Js the first to ‘discuss
openly. He says that the South is
more sex-consclous than the rest
of the nation because of its drab
fe and hysterical religions. ‘The
South fs lke a sex-ridden woman,
whé imagines that every man she
sees 18 after her. But Mr. White
points out that in 1691 white wo-
men were having so many children
by Negro fathers that Virginia had
to pass a law against the practice,
and the same thing happened in
Maryland in 1663. As slaves are
‘not in a position to rape their own-
ers, St would appear that the white
women needed protection rot
against Negroes, but against them-
selves, ‘Tho result is that the
