ADELAIDE WILLIAMS' BODY TAKEN FROM HARLEM RIVER REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Complete in Two Sections 20 PAGES-5 CENTS PER COPY LANDLORD ALL SET TO INCREASE RENTS BEGINNING JUNE 1 Tenants in Several Harlem Apartments Have Already Received Notices to Pay From $5 to $20 More or Move By THELMA E. BERLACK Less than three weeks from say. In fact, some landlords ha letters to some of their tenants.

In fact, some landlords have already paid visits to or sent letters to some of their tenants. These visits have not just been "social calls," nor have the letters been those of the love type. Rather, they were reminders of things unpleasant—the Emergency Rent Laws expire on June 1, and many apartment renters have been told that they must pay more rent or move. Some sections of the city will be affected but slightly by the expiration of the Emergency Rent Laws, but Harlem already has some evidence to show. Several families in 27 West 139th street have been asked for a $5 increase. A family in 51 West 139th street has been asked for a $7 increase, while a family across the hall and on the same floor has been asked for a $14 increase. Sheldsinger, Friedland & Gordon, the company in charge of 133 West 140th street, has notified all the tenants in the house that they must pay a $5 increase on June 2. A family on the sixth floor of 108 West 141st street has been told that it must pay $90 on June 1 for the six rooms that have cost $70; most of the other tenants in this same house have been asked for a $7.50 increase. The failure of the legislature to extend the Emergency Rent Laws, according to several Harlem lawyers, means that tenants will have to pay the increases or be dispossessed. Prior to the making of these laws in 1920, a landlord could raise his rents whenever he wanted more money and he could compel his tenants to move from the premises whenever he wanted them to do so. The Emergency Rent Laws, which were many times extended, took away from him such "rights." After June 1 Mr. Landlord will have a "restoration of his rights." The law, which has only a few days to live, offered protection from increases in rent to tenants of apartments renting for $10 a room or less. Exhumed Postal Clerk's Body Found Undisturbed The Woodlawn grave of Richard B. Cardwell, former post office clerk, was made to give up its dead for a brief moment Thursday, and stilled the fears of a widow who believed her husband's body might have been mutilated by medical men who were interested in the disease that caused his death last September. The grave opening followed the filing of an action in Supreme Court against the cemetery when the grave was found open four days after the funeral by Mrs. Edna Stephens Cardwell. 48 St. Nicholas place, the widow.

A white man who came to Harlem for a "good time" told the Grand Jury Friday that he was beaten and robbed of $32 in cash, a hat, pair of eyeglasses, a pen and a pencil when he followed Miss Ethel Jackson, 23, 146 West 128th street, to the top floor at 132 West 143d street.

Woman Receives Bullet in Chin Man Charged With Shooting Also Held in Speakeasy Holdup Another quarrel between the sexes nearly ended in tragedy shortly afternoon Thursday when Arthur (Oliver) Williams, 30, 2704 Eighth avenue, shot Violet Williams, 30, unrelated, while Miss Williams, was visiting at the home of Eleanor Behman, 301 West 144th street, the police report. Miss Williams lived at 268 West 144th street. A drinking party preceded the shooting. The woman was removed to Harlem Hospital with a bullet wound in the chin. Williams escaped to the roof, where he was captured by Patrolman Joseph Scott of the West 135th street station. Scott said he saw Williams take a 32-caller revolver from his coat pocket and attempt to reload it as he approached. Williams was arraigned in Heights Court Friday before Magistrate Silberman, who held him $1,500 ball for a further hearing on a charge of felonious assault, and in $1,000 ball for Special Sessions on a charge of violating the Suillan law. Williams waived examination on the gun charge. Also Identified as Bandit. According to the police, Williams was also identified as the bandit who entered a speakeasy at 275 West 144th street the same morning and, after attempting a hold-up, shot Vincent Branchini, 21, white, 501 East 102d street, the bartender, in the left leg and escaped. Branchini is also confined in Harlem Hospital. The shooting of Miss Williams is said to have grown out of a quarrel over money. Williams had spent a sum of money on the woman, the police reported, and when he sought intimacy with her she refused and Williams demanded his money back. This resulted in an altercation during which Williams suddenly whipped out his gun and fired twice at the woman, it is said. One shot went wild and the other found its mark on the left side of Miss Williams' chin. Patrolman Scott was called to the scene and Miss Williams said to him, "He shot me and ran to the roof." While Scott was making the arrest, Detectives Filner and Boyden of the same station were on their way to the scene, and later conducted an investigation. Dr. Apfel was summoned from Harlem Hospital and, after giving Miss Williams first aid treatment, she was removed thereto. Both of Williams' alleged victims will recover, the doctors said. COL. ROOSEVELT MAY GO TO PORTO RICO WASHINGTON, May 13—Resident Commissioner Davila of Porto Rico announced Thursday that he had been informed at the White House that President Hoover was considering appointing Col. Theodore Roosevelt Jr. as Governor of Porto Rico, and desired to learn whether the appointment would be acceptable to the people of Porto Rico. Commissioner Davilla said President Hoover had indicated to him that he did not desire to make the appointment for three or four months, pending information from Porto Rico as to whether Col. Roosevelt would be satisfactory to the people of that island. She Didn't Mean It Sally Jackson, 29, 235 West 148th street, slapped Patrolman Jasper Rhodes of the West 153th street station after the officer had sought to quiet an altercation she was having with her husband Friday morning, but in Heights Court she told Magistrate Silberman she didn't mean it. She was fined $3 for disorderly conduct. ABYSSINIAN CHURCH HOLDS MAMMOTH FETE FOR PASTOR Dr. A. Clayton Powell Eulogized by Flock on Sixty fourth Birthday and Twentieth Anniversary of Service Here Abyssinian Baptist Church was rapidly filling for a mammoth tribute to Dr. A. Clayton Powell as he marked his twentieth year, as pastor and celebrated his sixty-fourth birthday anniversary late yesterday when The Amsterdam News went to press. With Brig. Gen. John R. Russell, American High Commissioner at Port au Prince, reporting to Secretary of State Stimson that Halif forged ahead in all activities in 1928 under United States supervision, the Save Halif Committee here today launched a drive for 50,000 signatures to a petition asking President Hoover to withdraw the Marines from the black republic. Military occupation has robbed the country of the freedom won 125 years ago by its patriots, the committee charges in a broadside issued with a coupon for signatures. Laborers continue to work for a wage not exceeding thirty cents a day, as before the occupation, the organization states. Meanwhile living costs have increased up to 100 per cent. The protesters further argue that the country is capable of administering its own affairs and declare that in 116 years the republic has had twenty-five administrations to twenty-three in the United States. It is also charged that the legislative powers are usurped by the Council of State, appointed by the President. This body not only perpetuates the rule of itself and the executive, but also levies taxes upon "the sanction and initiative of the American occupation." In the meantime, the report made Friday to the Secretary of State pictures 1928 as a banner year, in which receipts were the largest in Haiti's history. Roads are being built, exports are increasing and the national reserve is larger, the report avers. The commissioner views sentiment for the occupation as growing among the peasant class and prophesies the time when a strong middle class will become the backbone of the country. The Save Haiti Committee has offices at 200 West 135th street. Capt. N. B. Marshall, formerly an attache of the American Legation in Haiti, will receive communications.

Oscar Waters Gets Penitentiary Term Politician Will Serve Term for Forging Pistol Permits Oscar Waters, 40. 26 West 123d street, was sentenced to an indeterminate term in the penitentiary last Wednesday by Judge Max S. Levine in General Sessions. The real estate salesman, politician and reputed leader of the Nineteenth Assembly District was allowed to plead guilty to third degree attempted forgery April 23. The plea was made to cover two other indictments. Waters was specifically charged with forging the name of Judge George H. Furman of Nassau County to a number of pistol permits he sold at $50 each. His undoing came about when three bartenders in a Seventh avenue speakeasy were arrested last July and offered the permits to prove their right to carry revolvers. The politician will serve not more than three years under the terms of the sentence. Waters was a politician of the wavering type. A few years ago he was Harlem manager for Judge Mancuso of General Sessions. Later he fell in line with the Republicans and was active in the last campaign. When the Democrats retained the lead and made a few gains in the election, Waters returned to Tammany's fold. He was reported installed as colored leader in the Nineteenth and headed a Lenox avenue club. Six weeks ago political leaders tendered him a testimonial. SENTENCED TO DEATH.

Mrs. Garey said in an exclusive interview with The Amsterdam News at her home Monday night that she had prayed to God for the return of her daughter, dead or alive, by Mother's Day. "I did not expect that my prayers would be answered so quickly," she said. "It is hard to realize the agony I have gone through during the past six weeks." When the body was washed ashore it was taken from the water by Fred Oelert, white, 290 West Twelfth street, and John Olson, also white, a resident of the boat club at the pler. They notified Patrelman William S. Sommer of the Wadsworth avenue station, and the body was removed to the morgue at Bellevue Hospital.

Assistant Medical Examiner Gonzales reported that the woman's death was caused by "internal hemorrhage following fractured ribs and sternum and dorsal spine." The contributing causes were not reported, pending an investigation. However, the condition of the body leads the police to the belief that Mrs. Williams committed suicide, (Continued on Page 2.)

It is not known whether Farmer, Roberts or George Lewis have involved Turner and Charles Lewis in their alleged conquest. Farmer is still at large, and Frank Ross, a fifth member of the gang, is in Tombs prison, awaiting trial for the killing of James Williams, 17, who is said to have been accidentally shot by Ross at 82 West 132d street while the gang was rehearsing a hold-up. Three Collectors Complain. At Fridays hearing Detective Vito Christiano of the West 135th street station revealed that he arrested the trio at 213 West 149th street where he took a revolver from Lewis.

Woman's Body Taken From River Woman's Body Taken From River (Continued from Page 1.) perhaps by leaping into the water from High Bridge. Also, it is possible that she met with foul play, they reported. Credence to the suicide theory is strengthened by the fact that many of Mrs. Williams' personal friends revealed that she often spoke of taking life. The idea seemed to obsess her. Mrs. Garey, however, completely discounts the probability of suicide, and firmly believes that her daughter met with foul play at the hands of her husband. She was known to her. "She was constantly in war of her life," the mother said, "and was afraid to go about alone." It has been definitely established, the police said, that Mrs. Williams died before she entered the water. Colleen Samuel's Battle of the West 1838 station was in charge of the investigation. When interviewed by The Amsterdam News on April 25. Mrs. Garey declared that if her daughter's body was ever found with marks of violence she would name the persons responsible for it. "However, it would not be wise at this time," she said Monday-night, "to call any names until after the police have thoroughly investigated. But I am being told this matter to the very end if it could be life." At an earlier investigation by Attorney Ruth Whitehead Whale, who was retained by Mrs. Garey shortly after the disappearance, Detectives Shea and Cleary of Headquarters NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 1929 squad reported that they saw no evidence of foul play, nor that any guilt seemed to be attached to the person Mrs. Garey suspected.

T. elevated station at Fulton street and Grand avenue, Brooklyn, was shot in the thigh early yesterday morning by one of two gunmen and demanded their command to hand over the cash in her booth. She was treated by an ambulance surgeon and taken home. The men escaped. Mrs. Boulding was alone when the men arrived, aimed guns and demanded the money.

Racial Purity Village Gossip Ends in Affray A protest against the discriminatory practices of residents of Alloway, N. J., has been mads to Governor Larson by the National_Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The protest follows the lodging of Mrs. Billion. Fleming, in fear of charges of atrocity assault after she shot Postmaster Lewis Collier. The trouble arose when gossipers had it that Mrs. Fleming and Mrs. Edward Robinson, a sister, are part Negro. The town boasts of its racial purity and immediately ordered the two women and Edward Robinson to move from town. Several Negro families live on the outskirts of Alloway, but the town sends school there and the towns pays their tuition and transportation to Salem.

Shanks was booked on a charge of violating the law, and said that prior to the arrest he had chased Shanks off the street at 134th street and Eighth avenue where Shanks was fighting with a woman. Man Held for Assault Following Collision Charged with assault in the third degree, Robert Howard, 33, 2565 Eighth avenue, a chauffeur for the Interstate Radio Company, 527 West 207th street will have a further hearing tomorrow in Heights Court, where he was held in $500 ball by Magistrate Silberman when arraigned Thursday.

Officers said McCrayer and Jenkins had disagreed over the terms of a share crop contract. The story told by McCrayer's neighbors was that Jenkins became dissatisfied with his contract and let McCrayer's plantation. McCrayer went after him and a fight began when the two met near Macon last night. McCrayer was stabbed repeatedly with a long brace "switchknife," three blows striking the heart.

TANNED NORDICS INSULTED IN HOTEL Dark Complexions From Sun's Glow And Cosmetics Cause Queer Incident Dark Complexions From Sun's Glow And Cosmetics Cause Queer Incident White Washington Society Folk Refused Service in Dining Room of Exclusive Hostelry; Congressman and D.A.R.Woman in Party WASHINGTON, D. C., May 13 (Capital News Service).—The new sun tan vogue is becoming increasingly embarrassing to smart Washingtonians of diplomatic and congressional circles whose social standing has been unquestioned for centuries. HOUSE OF SMALL INVESTORS Sampson & Company, Inc., 12 East 41st St. now give the SMALL INVESTOR a chance to profit in good concerns. Will send anyone facts about our plan. The security now being offered is on an annual dividend paying basis of fifty cents per share, payable quarterly. Printed matter and information will be sent upon request. Use the coupon for full details. 4321.... It is reported that on one occasion recently a group of Nordics in their swarthy make-up were refused service in the dining room of one of the buildings of the city. The party arrived late in the Pimlico races and were met by the head waiter, who failed to recognize them. Mistaking the smart sun-tanned make-up of the ladies and their Nordic escorts for a "mixed" group posting themselves upon the management, he assured them that the party was in the hotel room, a score of tables which were vacant at this late hour were "all reserved." The host, a Congressman, stepped forward to see what was the trouble. As a guest in the hotel for three years he demanded that the party be seated immediately, only to be reminded apologetically that the all-out management that "occurred" soon may be served in the guests' room only. Whereupon the Congressman exploded; his wife, a little blonde and a "D. A. R. ling" of no small standing, who upon this occasion could hardly have made the grade as a "high-brow." went into hysteries; the curious manager, attracted by the disturbance, caught a sock that was intended for the insulting head waltzer. Similarly, the theaters and shops are experiencing difficulty in determining from the make-up the exact degree of deference to bestow upon the once fair ladies. As a result, many brown-skinned ladies whose skins have been sun-kissed for years are being overwhelmed with the courtesies and kindnesses of shop women and keepers. It is reported that one store which was recently reported as not seeking colored patronage posted on the daily bulletin that "Some of our most valued customers are returning from the Southland deeply tanned. Watch your manners." The vogue for sun-tan started at Deauville, the famous French resort, three seasons ago. It was not an immediate success, but the following year it was adopted by the smart makers and models and thus was assured success--among continental society. Thus America enters upon its newest "interracial stunt," which is doing much to show America's affinity for inconveniences which are suffered because of them. It is to laugh. Little Brown Baby Carefully Abandoned One of the most carefully prepared abandoned babies was found at half past eight Friday morning by Hugh McCloud under the basement stairway in the building where he lives, at 220 Bradhurst avenue. He summoned Patrolman Birmingham and the infant was taken to the West 135th street station and from there to the Bellevue Hospital foundling ward. The child was a little brown boy with sparkling eyes, about two months old, and apparently in the best of health. He wore white cotton clothing and a crocheted cap of white wool with a pink ball on each side. Two or three rough towels were beneath the little fellow, who was wrapped in a baby's woolen blanket of blue with white figures. Over this was a doubled blanket, brown plaid in color, and carefully pinned. Close by the child were two brown paper bags, one containing half-a-dozen half-covered containing one quart of Grade A milk, the baby's bottle with a black rubber nipple and a pacifier. The mother is unknown. Her child is a handsome little fellow. ASKS CHURCHES TO SET JUNE 2 AS BALLOT DAY The Harlem Registration League, in a communication Monday to the interdenominational Preachers' Meeting of New York, called upon the members of June 2 as "Registration and Ballot Date."

Carter of Opportunity Magazine Sees Hopeful Era for Negro A new era of greater things for the Negro was expressed by Elmer Anderson Carter, editor of Opportunity Magazine, who addressed the Bethel A. M. E. Young People's Lyceum, 52 West 132d street, Sunday afternoon on the subject of "The Psychology of Escape." Samuel Westerfield is president of the lyceum. The Rev. A. C. Sanders, pastor. Mr. Carter said that the two fundamental urges of mankind are to control their environment or to escape from it, and that when a race of people can do neither they seek to do so, and builds a world of their own, based upon equality. The latter method as employed by the Negro in slavery is responsible for his intensely religious nature, Mr. Carter said. "Fundamentally, like Negro is no more religious than any other race of mankind." In the control of environment in this age of modern machinery, the Negro is now face to face with competition from the white worker on so-called Negro jobs, Mr. Carter pointed out. "Therefore the Negro must be more clean-cut, efficient and dependable in the jobs he now holds." Carter said that the worldwide interest in the Negro during the past five years is the beginning of greater things. The Negro writer, especially, has a mission to perform in giving to the world an impression of the race that will command the respect of other races, the editor said. Negro authors who hold their people in contempt, he said, will surely suffer in the end. Leola M. Baines, winner of a gold medal in an oratorical contest conceived by the Allen Christian Endeavor League, delivered an original address on "The Influence of the Church Upon the Youth in the Past Generation." Vocal solos were rendered by Rosa B. Rose and Herbert A. Allen. Louise Proctor played the piano. Seeking Parents of Two Boys Picked Up by Police The Bureau of Missing Persons is seeking the parents of two boys who were found wandering in Harlem on the night of May 7, and who are now in the custody of the Children's Society. One of the boys is nine years old, and although he was able to tell his name he was unable to give any further information concerning himself. He said his name was Alonzo Setteles. The other boy, about six years old, was unable to furnish any information able to be put in place in eating his parents or relatives. He was found at 1 o'clock in the morning in front of 119 Edgecombe avenue. He is described as being three feet tall, weighing about 30 pounds, and wore a black sweater and hat, blue shirt, black laced shoes and white stockings. Detective Cody of the Bureau of Missing Persons is in charge of the search for the parents of the boys. Woman's Body Unidentified. Directive Cody of the Bureau of Missing Persons has been appointed to locate the friends or relatives of an unidentified woman, about 32 years old, who died on May 3, in Believe Hospital from an overdose of morphine.

N.J. Church Women In Interracial Meet Conference Under Federal Council of Churches Well Attended TRENTON, May 13.

"Black" South Africa Must Remain "White" CAPE TOWN, South Africa, May 11.-According to the Associated Press, the general election campaign in the Union of South Africa, which elects a new Parliament June 12, has become unusually quiet after keen political battles at the beginning. It is expected to warm up considerably after nominations next Wednesday. In the present House of Assembly there are 63 Nationalists, 54 of the South African Party, Laborists and one Independent for a 135. As a result of redistribution of seats the number has been increased to 148. The Government under Premier J. B. Hertzog, a Nationalist-Labor coalition, and the Government of South African Party members under former Premier Gen. Jan Smuts, both profess confidence in the outcome. The present Government says it alone can prevent a "black" South Africa, and guarantee abundant employment and industrial space. Opposition depreciates the Governmentry of "black" South Africa, and maintains the raising of this issue is merely a political stunt. To Ambitious People Experience Unnecessary Immediate Employment Part or Full Time For those who are in need of extra money each week, or who are looking for a permanent, progressive position and are willing to work, we have an unusual proposition. To Fill Prescriptions For the Poor at Cost In letters addressed to all the physicians in Harlem, LaMorel's Prescription Dispensary, located in the Vincent Sanatorium, 2348 Seventh avenue, announces that during certain hours of the day physicians' and dentists' prescriptions issued to poor patients will be filled for about half the regular price charged. "This is being done," said Dr. Oliver N. LaMorel, owner of the dispensary, aid the physician in his humanitarian work for the poor. For the present the time from 8:30 to 10 a. m., except Saturday and Sunday, has been set aside for this work. The plan should result in a considerable saving to Harlem's worthy poor. Mother Finds Missing Girl by Accident Charlotte Holder, 22, a resident of the Dumbar Garden Apartments, 2588 Seventh avenue, who was reported missing in March, was found recently at Central Islip Hospital by her mother, Mrs. Mary E. Holder, when she was found unattended to her daughter, Mildred, 19. Both girls are said to be mentally unbalanced. Charlotte's condition is reported to have grown out of worry over the fact that she was not permitted to engage in the working of making arrows at powerowers at home for livelihood. At the time of her disappearance she went to Bellevue Hospital. Hotel Proprietor Compromises Case The differences between Edward Wilson, proprietor of the Hotel Olga 690 Lenox avenue, near 145th street, and Mrs. Esther Washington, 27, 151 West 141st street, were compromised Saturday morning upon the payment by Mr. Wilson of $300. The dispute arose over the amount due Mrs. Washington from a check given Mr. Wilson after the deduction of her brother's funeral expenses. Malgus Silberman in Heights Court advised them to reach a settlement, if possible. Wilson was represented by Attorney William T. Andrews, 2313 Seventh avenue. A Dangerous Condition "There was a time when my health was not so good," says Mr. Miles Hopkinson, a baker in Kentucky, K. "I suffered from gas pains. My system was saturated with poison which was not properly eliminated. From time to time and severe headaches, and I felt alughr and dull. "I knew of Black-Draught as a medicine for CONSTIPATION so I thought I would try it. For a while I took a small dose every night until my system was rid of the accumulated poison. I gained in weight and my skin was good. That experience made me realize the merits of Black-Draught. I kept it in my home and when I begin to feel lifeless and dull, I take a dose, after which I feed O. K. again. My system cleaned, and I find Black-Draught a great aid." 28 cents. All drugstores.

PROCTOR, D. D. S. Dental Caries (PREDISPOSING CAUSES) DENTAL, caries is the most com- DENTAL caries is the most common disease to which the human body is heir. Though it seems to be increasingly more prevalent, no race or trible has ever entirely escaped it. The cause is not entirely due to lack of dental hygiene, for how often do we hear a person say, and truthfully, that "I take the utmost care of my teeth, but in spite of that my dentist is always finding cavities." Aside from the direct or active causes of decay, which are the disheated, broken, or certain institutional and local causes that play an important role in this disease. Of the former, diet, inherited diseases and fevers of childhood are outstanding. The simple diet of meat and a few vegetables often uncooked has been replaced by an endless variety of foods containing large quantities of fermentable substances, as starch and sugar, which form alds that act upon the teeth, thus inducing dental caries. They are also so prepared by the culinary art that the teeth and jaws get very little exercise so necessary Big Value in Fine Foods we bring quality food goodness at prices that now.

Of inherited diseases syphilis is typical and outstanding. It is the only disease that has been positively demonstrated to be transmitted from parent to child. The syphilitic virus germ attacks the teeth, especially the front teeth, and the six year molar during their formal period, producing pit and ragged edges (Hutchinson's teeth). A condition somewhat similar to this is caused by exanthematia, the fever of childhood. The local constitutional causes of dental caries are of less importance. Among them irregularities in arrangement of teeth and structural defects are noteworthy. The difficulty met with in cleaning is the disadvantage of the former and the lack of tooth covering is the unhappy condition of the latter.

I asked the driver, who was taking me to Halsey street, the best way to get from there to Prospect Hall. His answer was given in the finest manner, his choice of words and his enunciation being superb. Why was this man, apparently 30 years of age, a taxicab driver? Besides being a very capable and careful driver and a charming conversationalist, he seemed thoroughly prepared to teach English or public speaking in any college.

If the fat is too much it is fat-soaked the fat was not hot enough when the frying took place. To insure a perfectly fried product, (1) carefully regulate the temperature of the fat as the proper frying temperature minimizes the fat absorption or soaking of the fat into the product being fried; (2) drain the food after frying on absorbent paper to remove any surplus fat.

Remove when browned and drain on unglazed paper. The whole process should take three and one-half to four minutes. If the fat is too hot the doughnuts will be too brown in three to three and one-quarter minutes and will be somewhat heavy or even raw on the inside. If the fat is too cool, the doughnuts will take five to ten minutes to brown and will have absorbed fat, giving a deep, greasy crust. To Sugar Doughnuts. Put a small quantity of powdered sugar in a box or bag and put four or five of the cooled doughnuts at a time into the bag. Shake until coated with sugar. Add three ounces of melted chocolate to the dough as you mix it or sift 1-3 cup of cocoa with the dried ingredients. Cinnamon should be used with the chocolate in place of the netmeg. When making apple sauce, in place of straining it, beat it with an egg wash to be more fuzzy. After frying onions and vinegar into the frying pan, Let it get hot and it will do away with the odor from the pan.

Cooking Hints Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN Do You Embarrass People? MANY folk mean well. They try to do the right thing, but they go about it in the wrong way. When a person does you a kindness and at the same time embarrasses you by his boastings and nosy manner, you often wish he hadn't done a thing for you. "Wise-cracking" and sarcasm in remarks are both annoying. We never know when we will be bit by the sharp-tongued speaker and we avoid him. It's a sure way to be unpopular. People don't forget folks who hurt their feelings. Perhaps they would like to forget, but they don't, and in order to avoid any unpleasantness they avoid them. If you want to make friends, if you want to be thought of as good company, then right now begin to make folks feel at ease rather than on pins and needles while you are with them.

AGENTS WANTED Earn 500 to 1000 a day Is Your Hair Dry? so many women are complaining about the dryness of their hair. They find that the ends split and that the hair looks more or less lifeless and dull. This situation is due largely to the increasing use of irons on the hair. Some use the curling iron, some use the straightening iron and some use both. You have probably noticed that people with straight hair usually are not bothered with dryness. They are not afraid to brush the hair or massage the scalp. If you are wise, you will take care of your scalp regardless of your wave. It is more important in the long run. Brush your hair well before retiring at night. Brushing not only cleanses the hair but invigorates the scalp. Dip a piece of absorbent cotton into hot oil and massage the scalp well. Keep the oil from the hair itself as much as possible, but rub it well into the scalp. Death Rate Decreases Twenty-five years ago there was no organized fight in New York City against tuberculosis. The death rate from that cause was about three times higher than it is today. When you are working around the house, cover your hair. Dust is absolutely no help to the scalp.

For thirty minutes they were cruel, fierce and pitiless in onslaughts upon thousands of fans shrieked with joy while the display of savagery lasted. At the conclusion of ten sessions Berg received the decision. He won by a comfortable margin. In match contested during the past decade furnished the action, thrills and excitement that marked every round of the Berg-Flowers alliance. The extremely doubtful that the fans will be thus entertained again within the next ten years. Slam-bang toe-to-toe affairs are indeed rarities. Flowers, the fractas between Billy Wallace and Kid Kaplan, billed as the main event, was mild and uninteresting. Kaplan won on points, but his victory don't cover him with very much glory. Bruce Always Dangerous. Berg, making his first local appearance, proved his superiority over fast antagonist, in practice ever after. Berg had a right hard all the way, for the New Rochelle boy was always dangerous and trying for a knockout. The opening heat of the bout became the greatest ever seen in any ring, from a competitive standpoint. Both came out swinging. They battled in close quarters for a while and then overhand right-hander to the point of the chin. Flowers retreated to the ropes. Berg pressed his advantage, but Flowers came back in the fashion of a wildcat and swapped punching stance. Flowers took a minute in the center of the ring. The spectators stood on their chairs and raised a din that shook the Garden. Berg had much the better of the fight, but was almost "out" when the bell rang. Every succeeding round, though not as "hot" as the first, made the fans roar and applaud vociferously. Several times. Berg and Flowers fought after the bell rang, so great their rivalry and desire to win decisively. Berg made a tremendous hit with the customers. He will be seen plenty in the house that the late Tex built. He is English, but fights like an Irishman. He doesn't know how to take him to the gym, but he must keep coming in, shooting all sorts of punches at the same time. He seems to be a heady ringman. 'ONE PUNCH' LEO STOPS ITALIAN 一 Colored Lad Again Pulls His Famous Stunt at the Arena The person who hung the monicker of "O'Lee Punch" before the name of Lee Williams certainly knew his tactic onions. The rangers certainly knew his heavyweight who flattened his last three opponents in the first round pulled a heavy boxer, in the scheduled six-round feature at the Broadway Arena Monday night. Two minutes and six seconds after the opening gong had clanged Tassi was grazing on the suit of a beautifully timed right-hand sock that collided with his chin and sent him down as though he had been sandbagged. The Italian made one attempt to attack the one on couch and collapsed as Referee Jack O'Sullivan was tolling the fatal ten. It was a dramatic and sudden ending as neither had landed a single shot, but he did out in his usual style, with his lantern-jaw projected by a figurative sea creature, and he took away, "One Punch" to take the four of Nando's light jabs on the chin his way in close, and then worked his way in close, and then worked kidney blows with the foreleger. Tassi and Williams had met before, the Italian winning by a technical advantage, but Leo suffered a broken arm, and that his rival on the floor for a nine count.

BALL LEAGUE MEETS FRIDAY PHILADELPHIA, May 13—Magnates of the American Negro League will meet in this city on Friday to draw up a schedule for the second round of the playoffs, and any other detail matters. The day will mark the initial invasion of the East by the Homestead Grays, who will play Hilldale Friday and Saturday and move into Baltimore on Sunday. With the Grays and the Black Sox heading the van the pre-season ope is running true to form, but there will be a tightening up of the race as soon as the other clubs reach a better physical condition. There is no doubt that the absence of the Giants has hindered the Bacharachs and Hilldale, but those who think that these men will be welcomed back without a fine are very, very wrong. League is greater than any of its players, and if find it out if and when they return. Paul Stevens, shortstop of the of the Houston Grays, is said to have accrued 100 hits and then jumped the club. It is said that he also took some of the club's property with him. Young Stevens has been badly advised and has been suspended for charges. He has also been suspended by the league president. It is likely that two or three more dives because it is known that some of the owners are not satisfied with the conduct and playing of some of their stars. These trades are already in the making. Hilldale has released Pitcher John Strong and the ax is about to fall on some other clansmen. Catcher Duffielders Cradock and Charles Sox have been dropped by the Sox. Recent developments presage the early return of Manager John Henry Lincoln Giants, outfielder Charles Lincoln Giants. Clint Thomas, Giants, outfielder of the Lincoln Giants, who was injured in the first league game, Lincoln's park, is ready on mlay again. The first official fielding, batting at the plate, is the one leased in two weeks and the fans will be in for many surprises, particularly with the fingers" to boost their arguments.

Strenuous drills helped the program of the combatants. The Coast youth took on his three sparring partners for nine rounds of boxing that left the earmarks of Charley Von Reedon gave him the hardest workout and suffered the severest drubbing. He staggered La Barba with a short right jolt to the Law and Ivan Dmitriev, moment that it was merely an exercise bout, let fly with both hands to Von Reedon's face and body that it became necessary for George Blake. Barba's manager, to pull the gong. Von Reedon is the lad who preceded the La Barba party which included a fight and a stopping Billy McAllister, bantam titleholder of the Antipodes, in 'seven rounds. Fidel knocked out the Anzac team and was followed by Following his session with Von Reedon, La Barba was busy with the gym apparatus, the business of skipping tape and a period of shadow boxing.

Charlottesville, Va. ..... 7:50 Lynchburg, Va. ..... 8:00 Danville, Va. ..... 9:00 You Must Have the Urge You Must Have the Urge BY THE EDITOR AFTER sounding the call to find out, if possible, why we fail to support the various athletic games in which Negroes engage in a larger way, two letters came limping in after the first call, which, to our way of thinking, proves what we have known all along, and that is the lack of the necessary urge upon the part of Negroes where these games are concerned. Let us take baseball as the "national game." A game which is truly national has a hold upon the young men of any country, and it does not take the commercialized urge of promoters to arouse interest among the people to support the game. Scattered throughout the width and breadth of the Greater City which is New York, youngsters of the opposite race can be found any bright day on open lots, enclosed grounds, etc., engaged in playing the game because of the urge. A people whose economic structure is at the lowest, but who so readily fall to the luxury of riding in taxis to go a distance of a few blocks, far from contribute to the athletic urge, which we have had an opportunity of noting in countries where the urge seems to be the most natural thing and the resulting lack of interest which we show in sport was fully illustrated last summer in this city. West Indian Negroes, coached and taught by their white brothers of Great Britain, natural urge for their game of cricket, which they made even white American, and the urge of cricketers made up of stars from the various islands appenced in the country, daily papers gave more space to the account of these cricket games of the foreign Negroes in three months than they have given to Negroes in baseball in this city, and possibly the country for that matter, in three years. The New York Times, admittedly the leading and most outstanding paper in this country, went out of its way to give a full daily report of these games and West Indians from all over New Jersey, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and other cities made it their business, to flock to the game. But underlying it all is the original urge planted within these people at an early age. The game as it is played in most parts of England and the islands of the sea is not on a commercial basis as baseball is in this country, and Negroes because of the natural urge have made personal sacrifices to be able to enjoy that which is truly a national game. Without hesitating even as boys they gladly dig down into their own pockets to purchase the expensive gears necessary with which to play the game. Members of cricket clubs come together in putting up money for the maintenance of playing fields and the rivalry existing is truly friendly. It is not with a desire to laud any superior qualities in the people from the three countries jump into this conflict of opinion regarding the support given athletic games by Negroes and their own people in this country; but simply a desire on our part, show that we have an enthusiastic background, lack of encouragement upon the part of well-educated Negroes, and the tendency to show a lack of interest to share a little personal sacrifice has had a great deal to do in keeping our people in this city in a state of lethargy where athletic games are concerned. The West Indian has brought the same natural urge and enthusiasm for cricket and other games to bear to such an extent in this city it can be truthfully said he had much to do with breaking down the barriers erected by the Amateur Athletic-Union here, with a result it became possible for our boys to share in competitive games fostered by this body. We must not be unmindful that the same islanders stood behind that great enthusiasm by drawing thousands of our people in former years to the basketball games staged in this city. With a militancy and an urge that could not be denied young men enjoying the benefit of athletic games the St. Christopher Club St. Philip. In the rough that tattoing Virgin Islander, Rev. Everard Daniels, carried on the rugs to see the day when the St. Christopher Club stood at the top in athletic competitions. Old men and young men made the parish house of St. Philip's Church their headquarters, and the interest shown was of the keenest. So much so the enthusiasm surrounding athletics at St. Philip's was so far-reaching it went out to other avenues in the church. The day that Daniels decided to leave for other fields in his ministerial line of endeavor appeared the handwriting on the wall, and interest started to lag. What Daniels had done for athletics in this great city will take many pages in the history still to be written on the growth of Harlem. One cannot help but admire this man for qualities which included that physical courage which at some time in the life of all men is questioned. We can instance when one obstreperous athlete thinking that Daniels could be building a house with physical violence, to which Daniels replied by starting to remove his coat and giving his opponent that while he was a minister of the Gospel, he was also a man. These islanders brought their laudable qualities into the confines of the Alpha Physical Culture Club, and made of it an outstanding organization in this country. These tropical sons fostered the Spartan Field Club, that same group which has made it possible for us to enjoy basketball with competition against the best in the United States of America through such men as Douglas, Mercer, King and Sibley. And it has not forget that they were also found in the confines of the Smart Set Club of Brooklyn, which staged some of the greatest athletic meets ever brought by Negroes in the world, bringing to tennis in Greater New York a popularity which even "exclusive" Washington failed to bring to the game early in its existence. It is the belief of the writer that the novelty surrounding even sports seems to die much quicker among Negroes than among the people of any other race. The islanders' becoming imbued with the spirit of their American brothers, shrug their shoulders and repair to the time-worn and moss-grown motto of "What's the use? If we had the direct urge in this city for the support of a team such as the team in Glenwood, playing dates would be known, despite the lack of the management of this team, bringing their appearances as we believe they should be billed. Hundreds of whites without unusual urge upon the part of the management find their way to the Catholic Protection Oval on a Sunday, and support the game because of their enthusiasm for the sport, even though it be between a white and a black team. To our way of thinking if it is true that we share the same desire of the whites for the support of the national game, a mere announcement of the leading teams facing each other, or a white team, should suffice to bring us out in large numbers to witness these games. It cannot be said that Negroes are totally ignorant of the fact that such a team as the Lincoln Giants exists, but being without the urge they consider it a great sacrifice to make the trip to the Catholic Protectory Oval on a Sunday afternoon. To see him at his best supporting any kind of an athletic event you have got to sit right under his very nose. Mouthpiests will consume many hours of empty noise largely trying to prove where we are wrong, but even in those things meant for the social and economic uptick of the Negro you will find that as a whole he is lacking in the real urge for his own action. Let us not be unmindful of the fact that it hasn't been so many years since men like Booker T. Washington and other leaders of our race found it impossible to induce at least five hundred Negroes to gather to listen to any message they had to bring to us unless their appearance was supplemented by the appearance of white leaders on the same platform. And in conclusion, while we are not a support of the Jamaica Napoleon known as Marcus Garvey, we must not forget that this militant little black from the island of the sea fired the imagination of the people with intensity, and he became the only Negro during the past quarter of a century that could induce thousands of his people to come out and hear what he had to say without being forced to use prominent white men on his platform as drawing cards. However, we are not concerned at this time with discussing the merit or demurts of his activities. Without the urge to do nothing will ever be done. The question is: WHAT SHALL WE DO?

TENNIS BY FRANCIOS The local tennis situation gives us much concern at this time, as we believe that it needs immediate attention if we are to keep New York on the map. With Nego community second to none in the country, which provides a fertile field to draw both personnel and support, it is no commentary to the organization in control of the game that we have more progressive the past few years. There have been some splendid men and women elected as leaders from the court; but, for some reason or other, the organization has not handled the necessary support and cooperation needed to build up the game in York. The importance of progress in New York tennis and its relation to the national organization should not be lost, and it is sure that, unless the city wake up and start doing things right, it could be a factor in national tennis success. The new officers of the New York Tennis Association have a big job cut them that will test their motto. There is an important of the many things, as we are them, must be numbered the following: Constructive work among the players; interest and support of the press; the game, and a spirit of mutual helpfulness among the players. If these tasks can be accomplished this season, the formal will have been laid for greater things for New York tennis of the future.

The Amsterdam New York newspaper, unlike all other Negro newspapers combined, yet these are the only two letters which came in answer to our query. To make it interesting, money letters on the subject. We insist that the same urge lacking in letter writing is lacking in sports. Let's go! May 1, 1929. Sports Editor. The N. Y. Amsterdam News, New York, N. Y. Dear Editor: think the lack of interest in our stars the diamond and diamonds certainly the diamond, is due to the scarcity of publicity in this city. While the sport pages of the white dalles are with the dolls of white stars of different sizes, we want that pages of our local papers very hard to find a meagre few words concerning our stars, especially of the diamond. There are scores of people in Harlem that own that there is a colored baseball club in the city. Those who are in charge of the different colored sports in this city certainly know how to draw the value of publicity, such as the managers of prize fighters, or I should say, as do the managers of prize fighters. Respectfully, ROBERT H. DAVIS, 200 West 140th St., Apt. 11, New York, N. Y. Sporting Editor, Amsterdam News, New York, N. X. Don't sit. Your query, "Interest Locking in Sport?" has attracted my attention and I hereby submit my views: The economic condition of our people in the city does not provide the facilities and concessionen encourage sports. Since the late war there has been an abundance of labor-saving devices which have thrown off as colored people out of employment. Many of our young men and women, unable to obtain decent employment, loaf around the streets, collecting alpins and number bankers, whereas previously they would be out on the athletic field. High rents and prohibition inaugurated the "rent parties," where liquor is great and many of our younger generation otherwise would be forming or supporting legitimate clubs, as they did in the days previous to the entry of this day we had such clubs as Alpha, Spartans, Smart Set, Owls, etc. What has become of them now, and why were their noble efforts permitted to land and become relics of happier days? There is but one way to Improve these conditions. Harlem is in a very certain place. It could be found to distribute this mass of humanity into suburban areas in the city, and to spirit of rivalry would be bound to follow. Herded together, as we are now, there seems to be but one slogan: "Everyone himself, and the devil take the mind, most." In Praise of Francis 321 Edgecombe Avenue, New York City, N. Y. May 9, 1922. Mr. Romso L. Dougherty, Sports Editon, The New York Amsterdam News, 2233 Seventh Avenue, New York City. Sir: Your observations concerning Mr. Arthur E. Francis, which appeared in last week's issue, were, indeed, commendable. I am sure that everyone who has come in contact with him, on and off with him, has been working and unassuming, he has stendily risen to a position in the tennis world which, I am convinced, he will work with the agency. I agree with the general tone of your arguments; but especially so when you state that "the New York Tennis Association, in electing Mr. Arthur E. Francis, would should make a better choice." I should like to suggest that the Association, in thus recognizing his ability, did him no special honor; but rather honored itself, a tennis public. Mr. Francis is nationally known, in tennis circles, as one who has worked ardently and unsparingly for the betterment and uplift of the sport. He has written and commented on the official representative of the New York Tennis Association; and, also, as your accredited correspondent. In this way he has had unlimited opportunity to ferret out the lills and shortcomings of the various units of tennis, and to make the New York Tennis Association. We may safely say, therefore, that he has amassed a wealth of first-hand knowledge, and has gained abundant experience. Because of this he should know, as no one else can, the rules of tennis in America. He is now in position to, at least, attempt to prescribe the remedy, so far as New York is able to do it. Furthermore, his liberal store of common sense and honesty of purpose should go far towards his admirable work worthy in the history of the pastime. And last we forget, it stands to reason that Mr. Francis can do but little if left alone. He deserves, and should have, the hearty and undivided support and co-operation of players and leagues of the sport, if he is to prescribe the cure for our myrdial tennis ill; even as the Caesars of old had the sturdy Romans back of them. If I remember my days of eaxing; "Caesar being our leader, shall conquer." And they did conquer, as we all know. Caesar, standing alone, could do nothing. We should all co-operate with Mr. Francis to be able to preserve the sport. May he lead well! Very truly yours. BENJAMIN M. CLARKE that contingent will no able to muster the full strength of their State for the matches and the tennis fans of New York as the brand of team tennis that will be my best where in the United States among our race this year.

Hildale, minus little Eddy Bolden and under: a new leader, Phil Cook-ral, came to Protectory Oval last Sunday primed for battle. They became desperate. They were in all games where teams engage in earnest efforts for victory, umpies are in the center of the brunt and seldom cover the field. The clean slate of honesty. The Lincoln Giant-Hildale games were no exception to the invariable rule of umpies playing goat when two baseball clubs face off. But it is a derive gesture toward a league when any member of its organization goes so far as to wave his men on the playing field after a defensive ball was beaten on a batter. We have been a most enjoyable afternoon for the largest crowd of the season at the game, was marred by the constant protests of the visitors on balls and strikes. Hilldale came over from Philadelphia to beat New York. The fact that he was playing after the Lincoln in both ends of a doubleheader. They garnered twelve hits off the pitching of Rector and Winters during the first game, with Winters driving out of the park. Hilldale made drives out of the park for homers and Hudspeth, erstwhile Lincoln Giant first baseman, now a third baseman. He old team mate, Nip Winters, for a triple. They were getting everything that went in the field. Holloway in the outfield, with the bat of Lloyd, with his gloved hand in a sensational manner and little Mr. Jackson, playing second for Hilldale, made a lovely catch of a fly, the obliterated Dehigo was doing everything and doing it well. While Hilldale was carrying on, the Red Caps Beat Jerseyites WEST NEW YORK. N. J.

Gray, who seems to be getting better and better every day in every way, played great every day in the departments of the game. Smith and he were when they see any home runs lying around generally put them in use, saw four or five homers that were not working. They picked up two each and they were during the afternoon sessions. During the afternoon sessions Smith sent two over center field bleachers and Spearman hit his homer over the same place. Scales' second hit was not needed, Smith's last drive of the day broke up the ball game. His last homer came with two on bases when the score was 6-5 in favor of Hill. Smith's hit was not needed, the rules of the game credit for a circuit clout, Smith circled the bases and registered talley eight. Dehigo gave Hillale a lead of three runs in the first inning of the game when he hit for four bases with two on. Manager Lloyd, making his debut before the Oval crowd as a regular starter, was the first chance of the day by on stretching full length on the ground and spearing a wide throw with his glove. The fancy made an elegant assist in the game, the first game when he went to deep short for a grounder and got his man at second. Both games were well played and he hung selected. The feature of the afternoon was the substitution by the Lincolns of ball playing for kicking and the pretentious order of a plain jacket for Hilldale to vacate the field.

In this frame Bayonne had put two runs over the plate and one man was out when the umpire decided the scores at 614 in favor of Bayonne. The Lincoln played a very erratic game in the field and failed to hit pinches. Campbell pitched a creditable game, but the Lobos had trouble gauging grounders on a skinned diamond. He struck out seven men, made a two-base drive and managed Manager Lloyd, playing his first game. He pitched three of the five hits made by his team. In his three trips to the plate he hit a single, double and a home run. B. Arlington of Bayonne hit for a double and a home run and their pitcher, Lee, was just wild enough to get the ball in the bloom of the oncoming night. Gassett doubles and played a great game at second base. The Lincoln will return to Bayonne in the future. Below is full score of game. LINCOLN GIANTS. A.B. B. H. O. E.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—When Santop secured the reliable Otto Briggs, formerly Hildale outfielder and capant player, the Bacons and captain the club he hit into the head. The first thing Briggs did was strengthen the team by getting Mason of last year's Lincoln Giants, Lewy formerly of the Bacchus, then he waned out their opening game, defeating Passon A. C. 5-2 on their home grounds. Mason led with the stick, making four hits, witching and the playing of his shortstop figured. SANTOP BRONCOS R. H. O.

The greatness of a player is a personality with ability that will aid his weaker teammate to become a better ball player. In his growing popularity he takes some other player with him to share the adulations of an hero-worshipping public. An intelligent ball player will figure the characteristics of an ampire and blend his plays and hitting in accordance with the ampire's judgment. Baseball is a game and a sport, but it is also a sport with a winning edge, with a ball field than a lay mind or a lot of players think about. Umpires are not engaged to be the butt for whims of ball players. Strikes have been called and miscalled on the greatest hitters of all times; runners have been declared out at home plate when sliding for the winning run; strikes have been called where the word ball would have forced in the winning run. And many other incidents could be cited that would show the sinfulness of a command which, if carried out, would have deprived baseball fans of the chance to win. The most important strike should have been called instead of a ball and after the batter made a hit, the impulsive order was given for Hildale to come off the field. But the good sense of Leader Cockrell prevailed and the game continued. Only amateurs quit in baseball games these days. AROUND 135th street and Lenox avenue rumors few and plenty are affraid relative to several propositions in regards to new teams of league calibre with substantial backing. Brady Johnson, for several years past owner and manager of the Brooklyn Cuban Giants, has entered into negotiations with several well-to-do business men who think well of baseball as a business venture. If a deal is consummated Brady will station a first-class team in Quebec, Can. Frank Wickware, star pitcher of Rube Foster's aggregation in years past, has an offer from responsible men in Buffalo, N. Y., to organize a salaried team to play in Buffalo and cities in Canada. Jess Flood, not so well known in the East as a baseball man, but who is known in the "Flood's New York Giants," has the game, has organized a team and calls them "Flood's New York Giants." In his day, has given up the playing end of the game, but he is still colorful when it comes to baseball and I predict he will be heard from later. THREE ball players have drawn peremptory releases from their respective clubs during the past two weeks. Rich Gee and High Pocket Hudspeth, catcher and first baseman, have been released. Gee is now with the Royal Giants and Hudspeth is now playing first for the Lincoln. Tex Barnett, catcher and first baseman of the Royals, was released for reasons not, as yet, made public. Barnett is quite a ball player and could be used by several teams in the Negro American League. NEXT Sunday the Bacharach Giants will return to Protectory Oval for a double header with the fast-growing Lincoln Giants. Manager Taylor has been working hard to get his team a good shape since their first appearance here April 28, and seems to be preparing the way his boys are going. He will bring him with all the old favorites by Jenkins, New York's star basketball player. These games will be called at the usual time: 1:45 P. M. HOLDING no brief for Frank Forbes or any other umpire, I must confess that we have run up umpires who had nothing in common with their jib but gestures. And they get away with it. Forbes doesn't get on his knees when he is in decision, nor does he throw his arms like a club swinger. In short, Frank Forbes a blonde honest jibman will believe capable. When ball players get to know him, as an umpire, he will be their best bet. Havana Red Sox Defeat Chattanooga Twice Manager Ramirez's Havana Red Sox defeated Chattanooga Black Cats of the Southern Negro League two out of three games, taking the first game 8 to 5 and winning the Second encounter before one of the largest crowds to witness two colored clubs in action at Chattanooga. Tenn., in years, when the Red Sox walloped the game by a 12 to 4 score, to take the series. The Cubans also defeated the Corbin Athletics at Corbin, Ky., 4 to 3, and so far have a record through the Six of have wins and 6 losses, with a defeat or more, and every club they have met thus far. Manager Ramirez reports that his club will officially open their northern season at Washington, D. C. on Monday, May 26, against the Washington Black Socks, following this up with a series of games over Decoration Day around New York City and since the department office for tours of the department, Ohio for Miamis, Indiana, Kentucky and Illinois. Prior to the opening at Washington, D. C., on the 26th of this month, the Cubans will meet Marion, S. C., on May 20th; Warsaw, N. C., on May 19th; Camille, V. C., on Bedford, V.

May 12—The Colored Gladiators, with Jackman on the mound, opened their season at Sargent Field Sunday afternoon with an easy 9 to 1 victory over the Town Talk team of Worcester. The Gliens gave Jackman a six-run lead to work on in the first three innings and the big pitcher had little difficulty in holding the opposition in check, linking them to his passing two, hitting one, and striking out five. About 2,000 saw the game. Four Newcomers on Gliens' Team. The Gliens had four new men in their lineup: Johnson in center, Gillies in middle, Johnson and Stevens at short. Johnson, Johnson, two of the Gliens run, hit safely once and was passed once and took care of his solitary chance in the field in one style. Gillies also got one and two of the Gliens team with a fine running catch in the fourth at time when the bases were loaded. Pryor took care of six of eight chances and Stevens han- Stevens's shortstop play was easily the feature of the game. He is very well known and made a great attempt to double up Gardner after catching Hendrickson's line drive in the third and drew a round of applause from the fans when he made a teammate of heart Gardner's wicked grounder in the seventh and turned a seeming hit into a lightning double play with a snapper throw to Ricks after touching second. The regular opening ceremony battery of Mayor Charles S. Ashley and Alderman Stitt; did their stuff before the game. They toped the game with a 10-foot layup. Mayor saying that he liked it as it did not hurt the hands, after which his honor or did some underhand pitching with Mr. Stitt receiving ably. TOWN TALK A. R. H. O. A. E.

Royal Giants at Erasmus Field Sunday losing 16 to 5, and coming back to win by 7 to 4. Cannonball Dick Redding, veteran speed ball twirling performance for the Giants in the first game. Sam Redding, Cannonball Dick's son, appeared in the second game, a pinck fitter. Three home runs at the centerfield wall, enabled the Royal Giants to overwhelm the Parkways. The first inning Elissa Brown clutched the ball to the showers when his second appearance at the plate in the third inning, Brown again sent the ball out of the park. Finley Johnson to the showers when he scored Brooks and Palge with a hit over the wall. Bill McKenty got acquainted with the fans at Erasmus Field by turning back the slugging Giants in the nightcap.

M. C. A., Ft. Greene Place MONDAY, MAY 20, 1929 --- At 8 P.M. Admission : : : Fifty Cents TEN Would Be Fair to Negroes in P. O. Brooklyn Postmaster Guided by Merit and Not Color, He Says "I believe in higher salaries for postal employees; I believe that a bonus should be given for lengthy and efficient service; also the improvement of the pension system, with annuities of not less than $1,200 for thirty years' service for men who have reached 68 years, and free hospital treatment for postal employees." This is a summary of the postal creed of Postmaster Albert Firmin, of the Brooklyn Post Office, which was given to a representative of the Amsterdam News last Monday afternoon at his office in the Federal building at Washington and Johnson streets. During the course of the interview postmaster Firmin, who is an old New Yorker whose parents before him were Abolitionists and friends of the Negro, took occasion to pay tribute to the Negroes in the Brooklyn, who were efficient, faithful and loyal. Mr. Firmin stated that the maximum salary that any clerk can get in the service is $2,100 a year. There are special clerks who receive more pay. He contends that he is better suited for creating more special clerks which should be based on longevity of service so that the government the hospitals should be loyalty over a long period. He also stated that he was in the postal service before he received more than $1,800. Postmaster Firmin said that there should be a creation of an "aroused public sentiment" for the increase in salary. He stated that there were over 200,000 men in this great industrial army and that they should be given hospital treatment in the Federal hospitals just as ex-service men. He added that he was not attempting to detract from the contributions that the so-called "professional" counterpart for men who have given the best years of their lives to the government the hospitals should be opened free to them. He also called attention to the fact that a postal clerk cannot retire unless he is paid only one in every 100 lives to that age. Mr. Firmin stated that a bonus system should be established for men who remain in the service ten, fifteen and twenty-five years who have been efficient and have a good record. The postmaster gave the writer greeting cards stating that he would be for the many Negro clerks who read the Amsterdam News to know his stand in this matter.

Sidelights on the Appearance of Congressman DePriest in Brooklyn Last Week --- By WALTER R. LOFTON. THERE were many interesting ideals to the reception tendered Congressman Oscar DePriest at the Holy Trinity Baptist Church on May 6. We covered the reception in our issue of May 8, but left the ideals for this issue. The first impression is that the reception was not only a tribute to Congressman DePriest, but was also a testimonial to the popularity of Dr. Thomas S. Harten, pastor of the church and president of the National Afro Protective League. For though the price of one dollar was charged as admission, and it was a stormy night, the spacious church was filled to capacity and the church room was a premium. One prominent Brooklyn put it: "You must give Dr. Harten credit for being able to get a crowd, for if the reception had been free and in the hands of others it is doubtful if a larger crowd would have been present." Dr. Harten was able to get many prominent white Democrats and Republicans to sit on the platform side by side. It appeared as if the lion and the lamb had agreed to lie down together. The meeting was scheduled for 8 p.m., but the congressman was delayed and did not arrive until after 9 o'clock. When he came in the vast throng stood up. Members of the National Afro Protective League had small American flags and waved them with great vigor. The congressman and his escorts were preceded by members of the George P. Davis Post No. 116 of the American Legion, headed by Commander William H. Jonea. As Congressman DePriest came up the side of the church he accompanied by Judge George Martin and Municipal Court Justice Edward Wynne, who is also exalted ruler of the Brooklyn Lodge No. 22 of white Elks. Both are Democrats. Commissioner of Hospitals Cadley, Democratic leader of the Seventeenth Assembly District, brought up the rear. Prior to the coming of the Congressman the ministers present came in a body to the platform. With them was Mrs. M. C. Lawton, vice-president of the Kings County Colored Republican Organization and leader of the women Republicans. Dr. Charles C. Weathers, pastor of the Baptist Church at New Brunswick, N. J. had charge of the opening. He acquitted himself with credit. The Rev. Timothy White, pastor of the Becthe Baptist Church, who had been charged with the attempt to leave, was down for the invocation. This was delivered by Dr. H. H. Proctor, pastor of the Nazarene Congregational Church, and was followed by the singing of the Negro National Anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing." It was effectively rendered by the young people's chorus of the league. Dr. Harten, who was master of ceremonies, was introduced by Chester C. Holder. In his introductory remarks Mr. Holder stressed the importance of the tecture event, and closed with a plea that every Negro give Congressman DePreef his moral support. Dr. Harten took occasion to thank the ministers, professional men and the public in general for supporting the affair. The speaker was Judge Martin. He lauded DePriest and stated that the time is coming when both the Republican and the Democratic parties will see fit to nominate Negro men for public office, when they are able to fill the job, for the white vote. He said that Negro men stay and has proven worthy of the trust that has been placed in him. Dr. W. C. Brown, pastor of the Fleet street A. M. E. Zion Church, was the next speaker and brought greetings in behalf of the Ministerial Alliance of Brooklyn. Dr. Brown took an interest in Brooklyn and that many persons have looked upon Brooklyn as suburban to Manhattan, but it is larger in population and three tics as large in area. He stated that the big idea was for Brooklyn Negroes to work together, to help them in the up and down and that Brooklyn had every type of preacher—business preachers, political preachers, race loving preachers and militant, aggressive fighting preachers. This last reference many took to mean Dr. Harten, for he constantly takes up the fight for people here along any line when he thinks they have been mistreated. Republican County Leader Jacob Livingston was the next speaker. The dominant note of his talk was that politics is a "cruel game," and if our people were grouped together as in Harlem it would be better for them in a political way, for scattered as they are now they cannot make their strength felt in Brooklyn. He further stated that nobody gets much unless they hustle for it and that the time has passed when republicans to takeülking about 1861 sider the Negro as a race, but as useful citizens. He expressed the hope that the election of Mr. DePriest will not be the only one. Judge Wynne was the next speaker. He paid a tribute to the Congressman and urged the Negroes to unite their forces. He stated that as a Democratic office holder he had been associated with Counselor Samuel A. Pease, and had found him a man of great ability. Judge Wynne served as assistant district attorney for a number of years. Mr. Pease was appointed an assistant district attorney by the Democrats. While the judge was in the midst of his speech ex-Mayor John P. Hylan came in. "There's my brother shouted and the crowd brok out in tears. This also served to put an end to Judge Wynne's talk. As the ex-mayor mounted the platform he went direct to Congressman DePriest and greeted him like a long-lost brother, something which also went big with the crowd. Dr. Harten called upon Major Frank Cholsholm of the "Old Fifteenth Regiment," who is a Democrat, to inquire about the Fourteenth A. D. In his talk ROMEO L. DOUGHERTY, Editor and Manager Major Chisholm stated that he was not ashamed to be a Democrat, for he thought the time had come for the Negro in the North to learn to divide his vote. Mr. Cadley made a short address and spoke in high terms of the guest of honor. Dr. Walter N. Beekman was the most appoler and his talk was "short and sweet." Mrs. Lawton was next, and she took the house by storm with her eloquent and forceful talk. she stated that when Congressman George White of North Carolina left Congress twenty-five years ago she did not give up hope, and that hope had its realization in the election of Osama Bin Laden. She paid a tribute to the late Congressman Madden, white, whom Mr. De-Priest succeeded. Mrs. Lawton also laid stress on the part that the women played in the election of Mr. DePriest and closed with a remark on the trend of the darker races. She stated that, with a man of Indian blood in the Vice-Presidency of the nation and a Negro in Congress, we of the darker group can see the dawn of a better day. The next was the introduction of Congressman DePriest. By a peculiar twist, it was not a regular Republican that introduced the Congressman, Dr. Owen M. Waller was listed to introduce him but he was not present. So Dr. Harten called upon ex-Mayor Horz but he did not invite him. In his talk Mr. Hylan took occasion to visit Malawi. Thompson of Chicago for "helping to advance the colored people of Chicago." He added that while he was mayor he did not do things for Negroes just because they were Negroes, but because they were American citizens and it was just and proper. When Congressman DePriest arose he received a great ovation which lasted for over five minutes. He gave what some classed as a "fighting speech." He said he was going to say what he believed and he did so. Every point was brought home with a shake of the finger or a pound on the table. Every sentence was a straight-from-the-shoulder declarative one. Here are some of the things he said: "He gave newspaper in Chicago fought my election and said I was unfit and did not represent the best class of Negroes. This was because I was not the 'Uncle Tom' type of Negro. But the more they tried to intimidate me the more determined I was to fight and win, for I will not be bought, bulldozed or bluffed. "The time is past for bread and butter leadership; what we want is honest, efficient and courageous leadership. "Stand by those that stand by you. Don't let one party control your vote. I have been a Republican all of my life and have been fighting for Re-Equality, efficient and courageous leadership. Must say that the Democrats in New York have done more for the Negro than the Republican Party." "To get your rights you should know your constitution. I will have printed at my expense 10,000 copies of the constitution and have them mailed to every prominent Negro in the country, and if that is not enough I will have written with it. I will never vote for any measure to further enforce the Eighteenth Amendment until they make some effort to enforce all the rest of the laws. The Thirteenth. Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments are still on the books. Let's enforce them. I believe in prayer, but I believe in faith." With the end of his speech the Congressman immediately left, as he had to get back to Washington. A feature of the evening was the splendid playing by the Eureka band, which is composed of women. Leuct. J. W. Porter is the conductor. On account of the Amsterdam News going the next day home, his daughter on account of which was especially invited to be present to greet Congressman DePriest, was unable to attend. The Nazarene Church Sunday was observed as Parent's Day and Dr. H. H. Proctor preached at the morning hour in tribute to mother and at the evening in tribute to father. He should not be put saunder, even in memorial observance. Mr. Robert T. Bea paid a tribute to mother at the morning hour and Mrs. Richard Harrison the mother at Richard Harrison and the thirty-first chapter of Proverbs at the morning service. In response to the appeal of the pastor, Congressman Celler has agreed to recommend to the Senate the terminate to West Point to accompany the candidate of Congressman De Priest. The committee named by Dr. Proctor to recommend suitable candidates consist of Pierce M. Thompson, president of the Creeks Dr. D. C. Proctor, dentist, and Solomon Luckle, teacher. Miss Thelma Brown, president of the Gold Stone Literary Society, presided at the young people's mother's meeting at the Christian Endeavor, at which a number of young people freshments were served at a social following the evening service, when a number of young people took part.

SECOND SECTION SECOND SECTION MUSIC By FRANKYE A. DIXON. Hall Johnson Presents Two White Artists Hall Johnson, director of the Hall Johnson singers, has introduced a novel and agreeable way of presenting talented students of both races in this. Should this be a source of inspiration to the students as well as direct source of education to various groups of the different communities. The first of the series occurred Sunday afternoon at the Grace Congregational Church, at which time Norman Secon, pianist, and Harry Glickman, violinist, both white, were presented in a joint recital and their work was welcomed with immense enthusiasm. The violinist opened his part with a number of solos heard in the realm of the beautiful Mendelssohn, "Concerto in E Minor," for piano and violin, which Mendelssohn wrote just a hundred years ago. Mr. Glickman approached the concerto with a settled pace and played with fine feeling for its broad and华丽 phrases, its clear and formal structure. He brought an exceptional quality into his reading that gave life and substance to the composition. Although the violinist played with taste and artistry, he was overweighted by his associate, Mr. Secon. He seemed quite to forget his role as accompanist and not that of solist. However, a much happier balance was struck in the lighter pieces, at which time the excess of sonority, such as partly raised piano lid invites, was judiciously modified. The pianist, Mr. Secon, opened his part of the program with the "Alteo Espresivo" movement of the Beethoven Sonato, Opus 90. He distributed dynamic range, his playing here gave signs of a degree of control, and his delicate nuance, of finely fashioned phrases, but the "Harmonious Blacksmith" the pianist was not altogether in harmony with the "Smithy." One acquainted with the composition detected a clever bridging over due to false memory. The condition seemingly distressed the interpreter.

B., of San Francisco, California Member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church The First Church of Christ, Selentist, in Boston, Massachusetts At SAINT LUKE'S HALL, 125 West 130th Street FRIDAY EVE., MAY 24th, 1929, 8 Q'CLOCK Doors Open at 7 o'Clock The Public Is Cordially Invited to Attend a gradual recovery from a severe cold. Nevertheless, Mr. Lovinggood cheerfully ventured through the taxing program, while possibly another would have postponed the concert. Under the circumstances, nothing need be said with respect to Mr. Lovinggood as tenor. On the other hand, despite its unfavorable condition, he managed to a organ eloquent promo but in his desperate desire to surmount the seeming condition Mr. Lovinggood often defeated his own efforts by resorting to the use of a sort of falsetto, which proved quite disastrous by contrast with his lower register. There was much loss of labor in the singing of "Ruglodose Odorase" by Scarlatti, "Ye Verdant Hills" (Susanna) by handel, and "Sound an Alarm" (Judas Maccabaeus) by handel, the spirit of opening, courageous, and well-founded with exemplary courage and persisted in carrying his program through. We would prefer to hear Mr. Lovinggood at some future date under more favorable conditions. Prof. E. Aldama Jackson was at the piano. Twenty-second Annual Musicale Well Attended The Martin-Smith Music School Inc., gave its twenty-second annual recital at the Rockland Palace under the direction of David I. Martin. Friends and musical followers sat through the long and tedious formation of the music which fell his or her importance to be equally significant. Unquestionably the general display of work was somewhat better than under the previous batonizing of both Gertrude and David Martin. Gertrude Martin has her own ideas and methods of conducting, but she has been seen in her overwhelming desire to obtain an adequate response from her orchestra. Just as in her violin playing, her movements with the baton, for all their fleeting grace, thrilled with a strange intensity and burned with a quiet, concentrated fire. As an added attraction, two youthful singers, might I say, made their initial debuts in the duet from Verdi's "Il Travatore." Miss Iva Mae Neugen, soprano, and Arthur Harrison Wilson, tenor, were encouraged in their efforts with vociferant applause. Both singers are endowed with exceptionally fine vocal organs. After they have enjoyed good training in their vocal technique, they will like to approach the art from a more musically aspect, with a fuller knowledge of the tone production and treatment in color necessary to combat the overwhelming difficulties of the older Italian operas. Miss Sonona Talley again played the first movement of the Rubenstein Concerto for piano and orchestra, which gave power and consummate mastery of the instrument. A chorus of about twenty voices brought the concert to a close. They were splendidly marshalled under the careful leadership of Miss Minnie Brown, who treated songs of Mozart, Denza, Burleigh and Dobson in a creditable manner. A large and friendly audience applauded plentifully in appreciation of the splendid efforts of the organization. Anita Patti Brown To Sing Here The noted Chicago cantateller, Anita Patti Brown, will render her first recital of the season on Monday evening. May 20, at St. Mark's M. E. Church, under the auspices of the Pastor's Aid Society. The repertoire she proposes to offer will include a number of operatic excerpts by American and foreign composers, by Barleigh Delt, others, and ground of Littoralghic hymns, sentimental ballads, folk and work songs. The recital will be her only one for the current season in this city. Y. M. C. A. Observes Music Week The West 135th street branch of the Y. M. C.

Was It Women and Children They Balled Out, or Was It Men and Women? BY THE EDITOR 'MIDST the walling and gnashing of teeth, occasioned by the theatrical war which saw the closing of "Harlem" last week, coloured Harlem has a jump in emotion to see the tragedy and humor of a situation which has left well-wishers of the profession in a quandary. When the information leaked out that trouble was brewing on Broadway between the show and the management, many thought the matter would be matched up, as the show has been one of the most successful with Negro actors to make the trek to the Great White Way; therefore the news came as a surprise, with the ecitement of a shock and the announcement of the salaries being paid performers helping to make the shekels do a tango to 42d street causing a big buffaw. And the entire matter proves better than anything we have used for an argument that we came pretty near knowing what we were talking about when we continued to advise the Negro performer to take stock of himself and organize his efforts to assume the organization of Negro workers would be working in conjunction with the powers that be and, even if the happy medium could not have been reached in the dispute, the ugly aspect of the whole affair would have been avoided. Then, too, the salary question, which has caused so much surprise in some quarters and has been ignored, would have found the Negro performers enjoying better consideration at the hands of the producers. If the reports circulated in the daily papers attendant upon the closing of "Harlem" can be accepted as being true, one need not wonder that Harlem is today asking if the gentlemen supposed to have "bawled out the actors and disliked that what was designated as a place no better than that shown in the show spoke to women and children, instead of men and women. Harlem is wondering if it is possible for Negro men to stand up under the hard things said to have been thrown at them without any show of resentment. The shades of Blanco, Gomes, and Clementine were O'Lverture and the rest of that noble hand, to include even Marcus Garrey, how could they do it! Imagine performers on Broadway getting less than twenty dollars a week: Shucks! Chorus girls in Harlem at the theaters catering to Negroes are doing much better, and it is a question if it is worth while for them to do a trouble of training to make what is supposed to be the Magic Street on starvation wages. For lack of organization the Negro theatrical profession is getting to a condition where it will soon be like the chauffeurs' profession. So many have tried to get in, the latter reached the place where many were glad to get in and do gardening, portering, and other jobs, say they were enjoying the benefits of being in a profession that called for expert knowledge. We warn our brothers and sisters in the game that, despite the surface indications of the success of the few, things are getting to such a pass in the profession it is only a matter of time that they will bind if they fall to take heed and form an organization for their own protection. Thetheatrical managers and producers with a desire to help while making money will welcome such an organization, and if men of intelligence and a knowledge of the game are appointed as representatives, the interest of the managers will increase after in a satisfactory manner, and such conditions as surrounded the closing of "Harlem" will be impossible. And it is only by the merest chance that a certain other successful Broadway production with Negro actors did not happen in many weeks ago. The road company harbored certain conditions that had the managers tearing their hair and threatening every other day to close "HARLEM" CLOSED HERE SATURDAY NIGHT Did the Management Really 'Curse 'Em Out'?

Clever Child Comedian of the Screen, Shows His Friends "Half Pint" and "Gin Rickey" of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's "Halleluja" How to Make "Talkies." Speaking o' Harlem BY KENSLY WINFIELD. In reproducing this article from the pen of the director of the New Negro Art Theatre we have deleted a few things which, to the best of our belief, become irrelevant to the face of the race of the people in the theatre are not surprised at the attitude of the whites, where Negroes in show business are ennured, for no other race of people should have stood for the race charged. The dramatic editor of this paper has constantly asked the people of the Negro theatre profession to understand that they continue to remain children in the opinion of those who would exploit them. STRANGE to say—and hard to believe that Negroes on Broadway hired by (deleted) receive very low salaries. An experienced actor or actors of our race has to be considered as a child player, At last "Harlem" closed Saturday night on a week's notice after three months on Broadway. All these things were "warmer," than Harlem Company was being cast I managed to get several of our players from the New Negro Art Theatre interested in securing positions as actors. I was a well-known well-known player; her daughter, Nelva Dahney; Roy de Coverly, and Albert W. Patrick, all regular players from the New Negro Art Theatre. For that reason took personal interest in the play. I was a very well-known "Harlem." I started out as stage manager for Mr. Blatt for his production, "Harlem." During rehearsals the director of the play, Mr. Chester Erskins, informed me that all of the actors to any of the cast it was just for when he wanted to get out of them. From then on I knew my place, and quit where I started with them. Several attempts to be exceedingly rile to Miss Clough and Mr. Payton in public. As production time neared we could see the change in the management. We could see that we were dealing with the show. It must be admitted that all the fault is far from being on the one side only. The conditions which drew the fire of Western writers on certain motion-picture actors in Hollywood were the same in the show we have in mind, and something must be done to save the situation. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 1929 a gang of Jews who were never used to anything and money mad. When we opened, Miss Washington put on her convenience at Jackson Heights was deplorable. Miss Clough was entirely ignored. We opened in Jackson Heights with her very low salaries; the ensemble at $16 with a promise of a raise if the play proved to be successful. The principals of the cost were also promised a raise their very low salaries. We came to Brooklyn to play for good entertainment was concerned. Several weeks passed and no mention of a raise was made. Two months were gone and still no mention, and we were put off with all kinds of excuses. During the time I had enlisted six or seven players into our organization, since my interests were still for the Blatt establishment. Things were getting pretty tight. A letter was written to Mr. Blatt, stating a fair proposition. This was ignored and the following night the ensemble did not appear when the time came for the first-net party scene. Every principal was in favor with their move except a few. They were told the letter had not reached Mr. Blatt, as he was 1,600 miles away, and Mr. Erskine was ill in bed, with four doctors around him from the shock of the strike. While this was being announced in walk Mr. Blatt and Mr. Erskine. (One line deleted.) After a "hot" argument an agreement was formed that the company become Equity, and a seven-dollar raise for the ensemble. Salaries of the principals were cut for the new contracts and you could "take the job or not" (Some lines here deleted.) Of course, I immediately lost my position as a stage manager because of the stand I took with the ensemble. I knew too much for them—in other words, I was not "a white man's niggur" as they wanted. Mrs. Dahney's salary was cut and she was thrown out of the show. From that time on they have called rehearsal venience. All along we have heard that the No. 2 company in Chicago was superior to this one. Maybe it is; who knows? And of everything was reached last Monday when Chaster Erskine returned from Chicago and called the show "rotten," "putid," "no good," "the worst show on earth" before the cast on the stage of the Times Square in New York. We better go back to Harlem and write plays and direct them and starve." Harlem" terminated its engagement May 11. Never a word of thanks to Miss Washington, who is responsible for the thousands of dollars that Mr. Blatt had made. Is Broadway Broadway to the Negro? I hope you will understand. I do.

A. LEONARD, Public Relations Representative of "Harlem." (For The Associated Negro Press.) INSTALLMENT III. (Conecluded From Last Week.) ACCORDING to my informant, Billy Pierce, the veteran dance instructor, will be the manager of the theatre in Norfolk at the Attacks and one Luke Scott as their guiding spirit. For four years or more he presented colored variations of such dance styles as "Berta," "Sowing Machine Girl," "Mdam X," and "999." Those were made unique by the fact that Negro audiences were most unsympathetic to the dance, so he made them attractive, blackface comedians had to be dragged in by the hooks for each. In "999," for example, do he was a lecomotive engineer, so he was drawn to the ornish training and scooped up the beautiful heroine in the nick of time. Scott's favorite stunt was to do a crook across the length of the "prep" engine training unit at the stage. Then, by coining a few words of love as the train approached the prostrate form of the girl on the tracks, he jump into arms at the crucial moment of similar flare, the audiences came back night after night; else Mr. Scott could never have endured for such a grueling encounter. Negro audiences are sparse, even in suburban-abounding metropolises as Norfolk, Va. Though the Negro is generally regarded as a comedian first and a dramatic actor last, the Negro musical actor last, the Negro musical personality, save Bert William George Walker, until "Shuffle Along," the first musical comedy designed for consumption, crumple into the key of Brett Wilson after their dramatic venture in Knoxville, comedy stage was not without fine representation during the intervening years, Salem Tult-Whitney and J. Tult thus were enabled to produce five musical comedies between 1800 and 1860 over Gus Hill's "Smart Set." It prospered during its tour, and Whitney and Tult thus were enabled to produce five musical comedies between 1800 and 1860 over Gus Hill's "Smart Set." They helped to bring out such colored musical comedy talent as Mamie Smith, the phonograph songwriter (of "Blackbirds"), Blanche Reefer (of "Blackbirds"), Blanche Reefer, Harriette Calloway (of the second "Blackbirds" company), Blanche Thompson (of "Show Boat") and Martha Thompson (of the colored dramatic sector who first with Whitney and Tult are: Charles Olden, Leigh Whipner (of "Porgy"), Lawrence Robinson, Alonzo Fenderson (of "Barnacle"), Edna Barr Barr, and Nat Cash of the New York "Harlem" company. It is interesting to note that the total number of Negro theatres in America is approximately 400, and that most of them are located in the dramatic stock. Eighty of these theatres comprise a sort of vaudeville chain, known as T. B. O. A. or "Toban." The most famous of these is the Booking Association, but the booking among the colored vaudevillians prefer to interpret the initials as representing laugh or Black Actors". The most popular of these is the team called "Butterbeans and Suns," or Mr. and Mrs. Edwards' in private life. Their reputed salary is $700 a month, undoubtedly makes them the biggest star in the cellular brand of low comedy which is most typical of Negro domestic life is to account for their tremendous popularity. But the invasion of manuscripts depleting Negro life, coupled with the cycle of kindred photoplay, is bring- "HOLLYWOOD TRAGEDY" Who Killed Howard Hall, Famous Movie Director? —SECRETS OF THE STUDIOS REVEALED— Movie Stars With Their Own Love Affairs All Messed Up—Dope Fiends and Dope Poddlers, Screen Vampires, Fallen Idols, Stage-Struck Girls—A Great Cast of Fifteen, With the Famous Harlem Actor THOMAS MOSELY, as the Victim of the Tragedy A Sensational Play, Based on a Celebrated Case SANDY BURNS — "ASHES IN THE ORIENT" He Invades the Harems and Frightens the Girls VIOLA McCOY—Return of a Favorite.

Mr. Cooper, who has been in the vaudeville past two five years, is a firm believer in fair play and feels that talented colored girls should be financially rewarded in a like manner to their lighter sisters in other musical comedy productions. He has, therefore, arranged a salary scale commensurate with this idea. Mr. Cooper likewise believes in giving unexploited talent an opportunity. In "Bombboola," a distinctively different type of entertainment, he hopes to offer roadway audiences the pleasure of gazing at a number of beautiful colored girls hitherto unknown to fame and fortune. Mr. Cooper is holding auditions daily at Bryant Hall. Sixth avenue between 41st and 42d streets, and 43rd and 44th streets, planted singing and dancing girls with or without professional experiences. Another innovation which Mr. Cooper is establishing sponsors great members of his ensemble by way of serving light lunches and refreshments daily. As "Bombola" is scheduled to occupy the space as soon as possible completed, girls seeking a real opportunity should waste little time in putting in their applications in person at Bryan Hall with Mr. Cooper feels will be a sensational successful production, was written by D. Frank Marous and Bernard Malin, who have caught the spirit of the times and book of this musical comedy. Isabel Washington, who scored a great personal triumph in Harlem, who have caught the spirit of the times and book of this musical comedy, featured in the production. Mr. Cooper has also engaged Burnett and Bailey, Billy' Andrews, Carmen Marshall, Mercedes Gilbert and a host of that splendid musician, Lieut J. Tim ing the colored dramatic actor into the foreground of contemporary histrionism, and, possibly, into his deserving own, for he is emotionally equipped to give the act of acting a character of genuinely human interest. "Black Dinderlin" partly accomplished this, and the forthcoming "Jeremiah the Magnificent" and a play tentatively called "Black Cinderlin" are almost certain to do it in full. The latter are the works of William Shakespeare, the white and black collaborators of "Harlem," respectively. Among the Negro playwrights who have achieved Broadway recognition to date are Garland Anderson, author of Appearances; Wallace Thurman and author of The Clown; and Ruth Thompson, "Jim Crow" and "White Mule." Miller and Lyles, the comedians, it is understood, made their debut as dramatic authors with a play called The Flint Below. It played the Negro with their appearance as the stars of "Shuffle Along." And the recently established Negro Art Theatre, in Harlem, it is said, expects to be productive of still more playwrighting material. Two playwrights attending play contributors at present are Ruth Thompson and Mrs. Frank Last. Brynn, who will direct the orchestra and is making the orchestrations of the score. Frank Montgomery, the well-known dance director, is staged by the ensemble, which calls for many novelies, including a strictly authentic jungle scene illustrating the evolution of Negrid dance rhythms. Costume plates and scenic sketches for Homme have been approved by Mr. Crompton and they said to set a new high water mark in production perfection. Nina McKinney, 'Hallelujah' Star, Overcome by Tasks LOS ANGELES, Cal., May 11 (N. P.)—A program from early morning till midnight of strenuous acting for Miss Nina Mae McKinney, pretty 16-year-old star of "Hallelijah" and in the midst of a song, she suddenly fell headlong in a faint last Tuesday at the Metro Goldwyn Mayer studio. The morning had been passed by retaking one of the camp-meeting scenes with hours in the hot spring room, and then bumping in close, smoke-filled cabaret scene, with rehearsal after rehearsal of the most strenuous dancing, and the repetition of her theme song in that scene, apparently getting a lot more realized by others in the cast that the strain was telling and even her mother, who sat by as Nina smilingly whirled through her action, failed to sense how near she was to the breakout stage. Directors and actors rushed to her and picking her up carried her to the outside air and all further action was postponed for the night. This retake was made necessary as the action was expressed with a pre-view shown at the Hollywood Theatre. Notes of Paris By Florence Richardson Aptitude.

Season's Outstanding Social Event Mayor James J. Walker at His Best Before One of the Most Appreciative Audiences That Ever Heard Him LAUDS HERO OF ILL-FATED VESTRIS Skinner Tells of Leslie Promise to Florence Mills to Revive and Keep Alive the Company She Made The outstanding social event of the theatrical season was the anniversary dinner given by Lew Leslie to his "Blackbirds Company of 1929," Sunday night at Lexington Hall, 109 East 116th street, where Mayor James J. Walker was the principal speaker, and Lita Gray Chaplin, Bee Palmer, Betty Compson and Edgar Allen, manager of "Peaches" Browning, were among the guests. May 3 marked one year for "Blackbirds" appearances on Broadway. Most of the "Blackbirds Company" was present to enjoy the full course dinner served under the personal supervision of Miss Susie Price. It was the most delicious assembly of culinary science one would ever want to enjoy. Famous Walker Praises Artists. After a bit of laceration, New York City closed cracked the hope that "Blackbirds" would prove to be another "Able's Irish Rose" by smashing all Broadway records. The Mayor extended elaborate compliments to Bill "Bojangles" Robbins, master ceremonies and lead singer of Blackbirds, especially praised his unselfishness, in giving his services free to almost countless benefit performances. He recalled an instance in which Bill appeared at five benefits in one month. Mayor Walker told the guests that New York is the most charitable city in the world, as in no other city are so many benefits given for its unfortunate citizens. He laid particular stress on the fact that members of the city are peeled on innumerable programs for the benefit of Jewish charities. "For the first time in any public speech, I will make reference to race or color," said the Mayor. "When referring to colored people I have always spoken of them as my people; the same as all other citizens of this country; we are all alike under the Constitution." Mayor Walker then clarified his statement. He told the members of the "Blackbirds Company" that they were not indebted to anybody for their success, but that they had themselves through unselfish service. "There is no discrimination visited upon those who have something to give," he said. "People will take what you have to give no matter where it comes from. As an illustration, the Mayor of the city of Limerick, who saved a score of lives at the ranking of the Vestris. "When he was rescuing those white people from the water, nobody asked him to hold up his hands to find out what color they were. The cruelty, the insensitivity, the ware in their position some discrimination might come in somewhere." Mayor Walker then faced Mrs. Nellie Winfrey, mother of the late Florence Mills, the dynamic little name and that of "Blackbirds," Next to Mrs. Winfrey sat Maud Mills, sister of Florence. The Mayor said, "Never have I met aamer little soul than Florence Mills, who courage and gentility even during her time, and a memorial is going to be built in this city to her memory, and whether or not I am still here in an official capacity, I shall be there. Such a memorial will serve as notice to other New Yorkers, and that New York measures her citizens by their integrity and ability." The entire gathering reverenced the memory of the late star by standing in silence for two minutes. The Deathbed Promise. Jules Skinner, attorney for Lew Leslie, asked the hardships that Leslie went through to make his present company a success. Leslie's first inspiration, he came from Florence Mills, who he launched on a brilliant career in the "Plantation Revue" and later on in the original "Blackbirds" which captured the crowned heads of Europe. Mr. Skinner said that Leslie told him of the promise he had made to Florence just before she died, that he would revive the "Blackbirds" show. He said the promise but his still efforts were a success, so he coggedly refused to give up, the attorney narrated. Those who had financed his venture insisted that he close the show, he said, but Leslie kept on and on until success crowned him, and so everyone is proud of the achievement. Moore Roosis Walker. Moore Boosta Walker Alderman, editor of the New York Age, paid high tribute to Leslie, but still higher tribute to Mayor Walker, whom he called "the most outstanding representative of good government that has ever been City Hall. It is a fine thing to the Walker, so outspoken against intolerance." Alderman Moore declared, "although he may not get to City Hall on time, he can do more work in one hour than any of his predecessors did in forty-eight." Todery, who leads the famous "Blackburn orchestra, recalled the starving days" Leslie came to him and said, "Will we got to do something for the colored people in a big way." This led to the "discovery" of Florence and her subsequent international life, he said. Leslie added, the guests briefly, crediting the members of the company with the larger share of responsibility of their success. Bolanges said of Leslie, in effect, "With all of his faults we love him." A bit of truth telling added great zest and humor, sometimes hysterical, to Bo's imitative kets and digressions. Shimman's "Virginia." Bee Palmer, the original shimmy cancer, electrified the well dined listeners with a poppy rendition of "Virginia," with Leonard Ficks, Paul Whiteman's arranger, at the plano. Dorothy Fields and Jimmy Mc- JIMMIE WALKER LAUDS NEGRO AT BANQUET Fine Reception to Famous B'way Company Hugh, lyric and music writers for "Blackbirds," listened to Ada Ward croon their own composition, "I Can't Give You Anything But Love." Adelaide Hall, often referred to as the second Florence Mills, made the folks sing when she sang "I Must Have That Man." Crawford Jackson, Eddie Rector and "Peg" Bates, super hoofers of "Blackbirds," tapped out some clever foot tunes, following which Bojangles indulged in a little dance science. The really big surprise of the evening came at the end with Fletcher Henderson's orchestra intoxicating body with dance tunes and chubb The menu, of historic import to we hungry guests (that others were hungry before dinner is no assumption!

B At Harlem Theatres By OBSERVER AT THE LAFAYETTE Fanale Brice, in the sensational Vilphone talk drama, "My Man," shares honors this week at the Lafayette Theatre with a splendid musical revue presentation entitled "Hong Kong Revels" and starring the known comedian, composer, pianist and comedian of ceremonies, Shelton Brooks. Both stage and screen show are particularly enjoyable and the S. R. O. was hung out long before the usual hour. Fanale Brice is one of the stage's leading figures. As a comedienne and a singer stage and screen stars. The picture runs just finished a Broadway run and the presentation at the Lafayette Theatre is the first neighborhood showing. Miss Brice's talent is unique in that she is a dramatic artist, a talented comedienne and a splendid singer. All of her characters are seen to their greatest advantage in this newest Vilphone picture. Hong Kong Revels, the stage revue, is the work of Addison Carey, Jimmy Marshall, Charlie Davis and Shelton Brooks. It is safe to say that no revue should be so elaborate as this audience as much as this one. A very splendid cast supports Shelton Brooks in this revue: John Mason, Julia Moody, Baby De Leon, George Blas, Jesse Crayer, Carter and Daley, Pelice Tokio and other well-known entertainers. The music for Hong Kong Revels was rendered by Billy Powder and his well-known hand. Dressed in Chinese costumes, this hand made a fetching picture. The band sang and danced and was one of the hits of the show. A special attraction being presented with this show is "The Mississippi Flood." The Lafayette Next Week "Jazzola" is the title of next week's single attraction at the Lafayette Theatre. As we go to press, finishing lessons have not yet been put in the field, so the band pretentious affair, however, can be inferred from the fact that there will be forty members in the east, which will include some of the leading members of the band. The band will head a boundary run, a chorus of sixteen beautiful girls and a new jazz band. The photoyle feature for the week wrote "Wild Orchids," with Greta Garbo.

Dramatic Editor, Amsterdam News, New York City, N. X. Dear Homeo: I was sad heart that I have read of the sad ending of the play "Harlem," that closed Saturday night. The article that I read was published in a New York daily paper that has, I believe, the largest circulation in New York, and the article did not do the work. The article stated that the Negro actors and actresses had struck for higher wages and that some very hard words had been passed between the producers and director of "Harlem" and the actors. I know who was right or who was wrong in their claims, but I do know that the matter was finally settled in a very unsatisfactory manner to all concerned. From this very sad incident the Negro actors would learn a lesson and take need to the call you have made for an actors' organization. I have not the slightest idea but that the "Harlem" drama incident, or rather, tragedy, could have been decided to the benefit of all concerned by wiser and cooler heads, such as could be chosen by an organization to act when such emergencies arise. Evidently the Negro actor is not an article of life, and the thing that will bring GUARANTEED IN 18 IESSONS on the following statements: Piano, Tower Hall, and the Other Guitar. Concert. Quite.

Williams to become one of New York's Leading Undertakers Fred M. Williams ```markdown ``` THE NEW FUNERAL ERA The Funeral Director's profession has experienced one of the most phenomenal advancements in the last fifteen years ever recorded in the history of any profession. This calling, which has been in existence since the beginning of time, has emerged from its cocoon mediocrity into the butterfly of a profession. The sombre funeral trappings, the icebox, and crepe-draped coffin have passed into oblivion. The quiet, dignified casket coach, the jewel-case-like burial receptacle and perfect embalming have taken their place. The quiet funeral home has forced the ill-kept, dark, hole-in-the-wall office into discard. The frock-coated, sour-visaged Undertaker has gone the way of all that do not keep pace with the times, and in his place we find the modern, clean-cut, human Mortician. A new order of things has brought into its wake an increased burden in overhead that would cause the old-fashioned Undertaker to stagger and gasp. If the cost of funeral service is not to become burdensome to the public, it is vitally necessary that it be met in at least two ways: First, by an accurate knowledge of business principles that will determine unnecessary waste, in order that it might be eliminated. Second, by an increase in the volume of funerals cared for by the individual establishment, in order that the cost of overhead in each case might be lowered. In the past, and still, to a certain extent, the Funeral Director has been chosen solely on the basis of friendship, personal acquaintance, fraternal or religious affiliations, or recommendations of others. The only real basis of preference, Service, has not been a factor in the selecting of a Funeral Director in the past, in any other than an indirect manner. Lady Attendant --- Bodies Shipped to All Parts of the World Boy Scout News By Scout Edward Lewis By Scout Edward Lewis Whoopee! Hold on tight, folks! This is Whoopee Week! First, there was the whoopee Harlem Scoutmasters' dinner conference on Saturday evening at the Jack and Jill Tea Room. It was a gay affair—I should say whoopee—and many Harlem Scout officials were present. Scoutmaster Mann of Poughkeepsie were Blair of the St. Mark's troops; Joseph Wilson, Stephen Aspinal and Deputy Commissioner Solace Glenn of the St. Philip's troops; Scoutmaster Jackson of Utopia Neighborhood troops, Scoutmaster Bron Marshall 74, and Scoutmaster Scott Executive Fallings. The theme of the conference was "Leadership." Some More The P. S. 157 troop was among the biggest whoopee makers of the week in naming the Scouts, with 24 more promoted. In master Frazier is the whoopee maker. Still Further. Speaking of whoopee, the districts are raising it all over Harlem. They have been asked to increase the membership of each troop by 10 new Scouts, and the first troop to do this will receive the prize, which will be a district streamer. An extra gold bar will be added for every new Scout over the quota. The recruiting drive will close Buns 15. The biggie Whoopee Conference, in which all troops will take part, will start on one of the first Fridays in June. Troops have been asked to send delegates. The conference will end up with the biggest jamboree and whoopee meeting ever seen, which will be held at the Manhattan Scout camps, where the Scouts will go for the week-end. Visitor. The St. Philip's troops are expecting a visitor on Friday evening in the person of Mr. Boulden Smith, who will come from Memphis, where he is connected with Scouting. Twenty-five boys were organized into a Scout troop at the Columbus Hill Center, on Monday, May 6. Their Scoutmaster is Vernon Holley. Abraham Roland was elected patrol leader, and Paul Davis as scribe. F. S. Readers, Scoutmaster Solace Glenn 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 you have pains in the bowels, gas, sour stomach, dizzy spells. Conting on the tongue is a sign that you need Tanlac—the medicine which has helped thousands who were physical wrecks from stomach and bowel troubles—who had "tried everything" in vain and about given up hope.

At the present time, Banbury Court has more than 100 colored families and is a five-minute walk from the Long Island Railroad Station or from the shopping center of Amityville. The homes being erected are four room cottages for all year occupancy. The building is 20 by 34 feet and stands on a large plot with a full cellar. It has an open porch and the exterior is built of 10-inch Colonial siding. There is a combination living and dining room, 9½ feet by 17 feet, a kitchen with a combination sink and tub, kitchen dresser and gas range and two large bedrooms. There are closets in the bedrooms and a linen closet in the hallway. The house has all the necessary improvements, including heat, gas and electricity. The interior walls are done in color both with similar to crafts, and all the rooms and woodwork are done in different colors, adding considerable to the rooms' cheerfulness. The property is surrounded with trees and many of the families living in the vicinity have their own gardens, growing flowers and vegetables. In order to make the homes within the reach of every family, the builders are making the terms as easy as possible. The cottages are being sold for $3,650 each, with a cash payment of $350. The remaining amount is paid like rent, $36 per month, which includes the interest and the amortization of the unpaid balance. To families desiring larger homes, the company is building from plans submitted to them and charge 10 per cent of the cost of the building and 1 per cent per month on the unpaid balance. This Sunday a special train will leave Pennsylvania Station, Manhattan, at 1.49 p. m. and the Flatbush avenue station at Brooklyn at 1.50 p. m. A telephone call to the company's offices at Amityville 1305 will bring the caller all the information desired, as well as free transportation to the property. ```markdown ``` JAMAICA HOME FOR SALE 6 rooms, with all modern improvements, near subway and schools.

BRAdhurst 4192 Dream of Home Realized in Ideal Location According to Phillip Germain, real estate operator of New Brunswick, N. J., the long-sought-for site for one's home is a plot of ground situated high, overlooking the surrounding country, that can be had on very easy terms and where one can raise chickens, pigs, hogs, vegetables, have one's own lawn and garden plot. Such a place is New Brunswick Shores, adjoining New Brunswick Highlands, where there are now over 100 colored families living in their own homes. Many of these families have their own garages and automobiles and are employed in the industries in the vicinity or commute to New York City. Now on the development there are three colored churches, stores, a large school, paved highway and trolley. This property can be reached by five railroads—namely, Pennsylvania R. R., Jersey Central R. R., Lehigh Valley R. R., Reading R. R. and B. & O. R.—in 45 minutes from New York City. In front of the property all the water sports are enjoyed—that is, bathing, boating, fishing, swimming and canoeing—and an amusement park is nearby. Values are increasing rapidly due to the bridges connecting New Jersey with New York City and due to the industries and factories located all through this vicinity. The families now living on the property are happy and contented and new homes are continually rising all about. All foodstuffs are considerably cheaper than in the city and work is available in the industries for both men and women. There are colleges and high schools in this section—namely, Rutgers College, Women's College of Agriculture, etc. Over 3,000 lots have been bought by colored folks from New York City, Philadelphia, throughout the South and from the States and cities as far West as Chicago. Property bought here is increasing rapidly in value, and is suitable for a home or for investment. The Metropolitan Shores Co., Inc., of 150 Broadway, New York City, is handling this development, offering these lots on the payment like rent plan and each Sunday at 12 o'clock free excursion trips leave the Metropolitan Shores office. Free chicken dinners are served on the property to those who come out for an inspection. $375.00 On Contract STOP Own Your Own Home and Amityville, N from crowded city condition ride on the Long room cottage, with bath, porch, ceil- cluding sufficient ground for your own — in a colony for select people.

Wednesday, May 15, 1929 Pecking at Harlem ISUN of last Friday displayed one article by Lemuel F. Parton, entitled a Problem." It says that Harlem is many a cornfield Negro, brings on all but the few who happen to get enterprises patronized by the white appeal of Harlem has attracted many groves, gifted in the theatrical arts, more pick in the theatrical arts, would have much less trouble in finding that the slums of Harlem are worse in the East Side slums of ten or two wells upon the high death rate from Harlem. It concludes that something at the black population which is cramped in the island of Manhattan. ARTICLE reads as if it had been written a Harlem cabaret. A white visitor of Harlem but its cabarets and their clients is apt to think that they are Negro life. If he is a man of intellect however, he will hardly believe that 250,000 people are theatrical performers. The average white writer loses all discussions the Negro. He himself is Europe to escape persecution, but him that the Negro may have come the same reason. UNFAIR to slur the Negro massesmate pick and shovel work. They are work when they have the chance. At men for not working, why not jobs and the employers who refuse work? HAT WAYS are the slums of Harlem East Side slums? Are they more or anything in Harlem to match the stonemania Yeszierska, who said that in good she lived in a room with elephants. It requires very little searching to find in New York City that are more silent, more scabrous than any quarter and breadth of Harlem. HOULD BE REMEMBERED, too, suspicion of bombs being manufacturing to American institutions, police would search is Harlem. Criticize about Harlem if they spent less days and more with the workers. Wherever possible Trade With Stores in Harlem That Do Not Practice Discrimination in the Selection of Their Employees. Pecking at Harlem THE SUN of last Friday displayed on its front page an article by Lemuel F. Parton, entitled "Harlem Becomes a Problem." It says that Harlem, the Mecca of many a cornfield Negro, brings disillusionment to all but the few who happen to get into the amusement enterprises patronized by the whites; that the gaudy appeal of Harlem has attracted mainly light-footed Negroes, gifted in the theatrical arts, and that if there were more pick and shovel addicts among them they would have much less trouble in finding work. It says also that the slums of Harlem are worse in some ways than the East Side slums of ten or twenty years ago. It dwells upon the high death rate from tuberculosis in Harlem. It concludes that something must be done about the black population which is creeping up and down the island of Manhattan. THE ARTICLE reads as if it had been written on a table in a Harlem cabaret. A white visitor who sees nothing of Harlem but its cabarets and their accessory establishments is apt to think that they are the main centers of Negro life. If he is a man of intellect and vision, however, he will hardly believe that the majority of 250,000 people are the theatrical performers or aspirants. The average white writer loses all his logic when he discusses the Negro. He himself may have fled from Europe to escape persecution, but it never occurs to him that the Negro may have come to Harlem for the same reason. IT IS UNFAIR to slur the Negro masses as loafers, who hate pick and shovel work. They are glad to do such work when they have the chance. Instead of sneering at men for not working, why not blame the labor unions and the employers who refuse to give them work? IN WHAT WAYS are the slums of Harlem worse than the East Side slums? Are they more congested? Is there anything in Harlem to match the story of the writer, Anzia Yeszierska, who said that in her East Side girlhood she lived in a room with eleven other people? It requires very little searching to find neighborhoods in New York City that are more squalid, more pestilent, more scabrous than any quarter in the whole length and breadth of Harlem. IT SHOULD BE REMEMBERED, too, that if there is a suspicion of bombs being manufactured, of anything menacing to American institutions, the last place the police would search is Harlem. Critics would know more about Harlem if they spent less time with the hoofers and more with the workers. Whalen's Committee VICE COMMISSIONER WHALEN says the committee of seventeen distinguished him in dealing with crime. They were commercialized recreation in poolroom, similar places. Mr. Whalen says that largely a problem of youth, that two of his crimes are committed by person of years of age. For reasons of his failure to name a Negro to this committee, we that the hue and cry recently made warrants the employment of a Negro with it. NILLY a Negro is as conversant with the City as the wife of the British Colonel name appears on the committee. No, that when a police commissioner calls on private citizens to help him a Negro is not the only nor the chief. Whalen's Committee Whalen's Committee POLICE COMMISSIONER WHALEN has appointed a committee of seventeen distinguished citizens to advise him in dealing with crime. They will investigate commercialized recreation in poolrooms, dance halls and similar places. Mr. Whalen says that crime today is largely a problem of youth, that two-thirds of the serious crimes are committed by persons under twenty-five years of age. For reasons of his own Mr. Whalen failed to name a Negro to this committee, but it seems to us that the hue and cry recently made about Negro crime warrants the employment of a Negro to help deal with it. SURELY a Negro is as conversant with crime in New York City as the wife of the British Consul General, whose name appears on the committee list. It is evident, too, that when a police commissioner of this city has to call on private citizens to help him cope with crime, the Negro is not the only nor the chief criminal element.

MAGAZINE INTERVIEW he calls HENRY FORD is what is known in Harlem as "a trying soul." As soon as he is defeated in one crusade he tries another. His phenomenal success with automobiles gave him the idea that he could do the world's thinking for it. He thought he could stop the World War with a wave of his hand. Later he went on a crusade against the Jews. Unabashed by the failure of these efforts, he has tackled a much harder job; he wants to tell us how to eat. IN A MAGAZINE INTERVIEW he calls upon the Royalty Mixes Its Blood clergy to study dietetics and preach food values from the pulpit. He believes that most crime is caused by wrong mixtures in the stomach. His Dearborn laboratory is experimenting with food in the same manner that he experimented with automobiles. That is Mr. Ford's great trouble — he cannot get it into his head that a human being is not an automobile. --- THE best definition which I know best is trade I have been able to devise of a Negro is any who would be jim-crowed in Virginia. More comprehensively, a Negro may be defined as a non-white person of African descent. All such definitions must be based upon common observation and acceptance. There can be no scientific or legal definition that will hold water. The judgment depends wholly upon individual observation. Blood composition cannot be definitely determined. A good but sensitive lady friend of mine expressed the hope that the Fact-Finding Conference at Durham did not brand its participants as Negroes. "What," I rejoined, "should they call themselves?" "Americans," came the quick and self-satisfying reply. But, I insisted, Americans are divided into various groups with appropriate designations for a multitude of reasons. Some groups we can characterize by the geographical location from which they were derived, such as the Italian, the Greek and the German. Others are designated by cultural kinship, such as the Jew, the Catholic, etc. In some instances geography and race are connotative, as with the Chinese and the Japanese. The Afro-Americans, a century ago, called 'Africans' as witnessed by the African Methodist Church. Single structures were described by geographical names as the First African Church of Philadelphia, or the Abyssinian Church of New York. Such design- THE recent death of the Grand Duke Michael of Russia, cousin of the late Czar, recalls a fact that will be of particular interest to Americans. If he had lived in a state like Virginia, his marriage to the Countess Torby could not have taken place. The Virginia law provides that a white person must marry only one who has "no trace whatsoever of any blood other than Caucasian." Of course, it is only the Southern type of mind which still believes that blood is a thing "Caucasian blood" or "higher blood" the like; it is only this type of mind, by the way, that does not know at this late day that what is known as racial strain is not Expressed by Other Editors Negro Cadets Envisioned. (From the Brooklyn Eagle.) Thinking Americans, no matter how hard they try, the aspirations of colored people, will not congratulate the two Negroes Representative Oscar DePriest has named for Annapolis or the one he has named for West Bend, they are distinctly on the firing line. Only heres choose to be markers. Never since the organization of the United States Naval Academy has a Negro graduated there. In the Reconstruction period three Negro students in college in. Despite the known determination of the Grant Administration of the Navy Department that they have the chance and the consequent humble chance, and each left after a single year. The same thing happened in the case of a Mississippi Negro named in the West Point also the Negro has hard work. Charles Young, who had stood it out, became an efficient soldier and was respected by his white comrade-offs. The first hurdle for Charles Young was the number of examinations, very hard for colored persons to pass, no matter what their academic acquirements may be Emile Holly, named for the first black student, was flunked. He is now a professor at Howard University. But granted admission to Annapolis or West Point, the Negro boy is faced by common hostility. The herd impulse of the white man is faced by the boy who wants to make things uncomfortable for him. His is a worse isolation than Robinson Crusoe. He is not only lonely but surrounded by enemies. The strain is terrific. Day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year, he is a wonder if he does not break down, as others have before him. "That is why congratulations for the DePriest appointees are not in order. On behalf of their race they may make a protest gesture for equality. That this cannot be denied than an idle gesture is a safe prediction." --- Who Is a Negro? :Bu KELLY MILLER nation today would be more offensive to the fastidious than the detested term Negro. The term Negro has become so firmly fixed in our languages and expression that one can hardly see how it can ever be eradicated, however much it may be objected to. It PRESIDENT is used by every writer and speaker, white and black, who uses the language powerfully and persuasively. It does not carry with it necessarily reproachful significance. It is necessary to use some descriptive terms separating the so-called Negro from the general body of American citizens. The race, so-called, constitutes the most distinctive group into which our population is divided. Bu J. A. ROGERS confined to the blood, but is diffused over the whole body. But passing over this, we get down to the important fact: the Grand Duchess Michael, according to Virginian law, would be a Negro. Her Negro ancestry can be clearly traced. Here is the story. Some 550 years ago the officer of the Contantople, saw a young Negro slave in a seraglio there, who is impressed, him that he stole him away and took him to Peter the Great, Czar of Russia. He a fancy to the Negro lad that he sent him to be educated in the best schools in France, and on his return to Russia made him an officer of his Impressors, and he became general-in-chief of the Russian Army. At his death he left vast property, which included 3,500 slaves, better than as serfs, all white. He was Abnam Petrovitch Hanplahlor. Humbain, as he is better known, left seven children, the result of his marriage with a Russian countess, and Alexander Pushkin, who was not only the father of Russian literature, but the popularizer of the Russian language. Before Pushkin, French language of the educated Russian. Pushkin, who on his father's side, was of noble ancestry (it was his son who was descended from Humbain), left children, one of his descendants married Bringing Back Yesteryears One Year Ago The Board of Estimate voted an improvement fund of $1,700,000 for Harlem Hospital. Brooklyn citizens paid an impressive tribute to George E. Wibecan at the Academy of Music. Dr. W. W. Matthews of Washington was elected a bishop of the A. M. E. Zilon Church. James (Alco) Sessoms was shot and killed by Officer Charles Reilly of the Sixteenth precinct. Florence R. Fitt won settlement of $150 against the Alice Foe McDougall coffee shops for discrimination. Sentences of all Houston riot martyrs were reduced and eighteen were released, the Secretary of War reported to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Ernest Noble, Fourth street elevator operator, saved the lives of thirteen people in a fire despite injuries he suffered. Lincoln Hospital graduated forty student-nurses. The Senate overrode the President's veto of the Soldier Bonus Bill. d preach food values from at most crime is caused by mach. His Dearborn labith food in the same man-with automobiles. That is he cannot get it into his not an automobile. Various synonymic terms are in vogue: "Colored" serves the purpose, in some applications; "Afro-American" in others; at least one journal suggests the use of "race men." All attempts to omit the word Negro from discussion of the problem which his presence constitutes is but verbal gymnastics, leading from nowhere and to nowhere. In some applications the term is imprecise, too vague, or meaning. How else would one describe the "Negro Year Book" or "The Journal of Negro History?" I have heard serious and sincere persons express the belief that all of the evils of the group grew out of the fact that they were called "Negroes." Change the name and you improve the status. It is hard to imagine that people would though some highly respectable people entertain it. It has ordinarily seemed to me to be a waste of while to quibble over the senilites of race nomenclature. There used to be a floating saying in South Carolina. "You may call me what you call me in time for dinner." This of course implies that no insulting meaning is conveyed by the cathet. The several Southern states have their own legal definition of a Negro. In most instances, it includes all persons of African descent to the extent from one-sixteenth to seventeenth-sixteenth of African blood. And yet there is found nowhere any exact blood tester to determine the prescribed proportion. Evidently, it cannot be ascertained from the putative parents nor from physical appearance. It all depends upon guesswork and haphazard. For many reasons, social and sociological, it is highly desirable that we be able to fix the racial placement of an individual. But I do not believe that any legal distinctions among American citizens should be the Grand Duke Alexander of Hesse. But since the grand duke was of royal ancestry and his wife was not, the union was what is known as a morganatic marriage: Of course, just as in Virginia, where white can only marry white but may live in concubinage with a black woman, the Grand Duke royalty, though it may contract left-handed marriages with others of low- 1930 er cante. It would be useless to say that only males are allowed to do this. The Grand Duke Alexander left several children and one of his daughter, Countess Torby, married the Grand Duke of Czar, however, opposed the match, not on the ground of Negro ancestry, but because of rank, and the Grand Duke lived with his wife outside of Russia. The Negro slave, the Negro Tory family, has spring the powerful Tory family, which has since married into the English royal family. This writer recalls that at the time of the marriage the Sunday feature of a well-known American television program discussed of whether a black-collack child with kinky hair.

To the editor of the Amsterdam News. Dear Sr: There seems to be more than a touch of irony in the fact that the first and only public monument in the "black belt" of Harlem is to be a gun, the German Howitzer, which the Veterans of Foreign War plans to place in Dorrance Brooks square. There are too many guns in Harlem already. The site is easily the most advantageous location in Harlem for a public statue or monument and the new subway will increase its value tenfold. It should be occupied by a work of art—a thing of beauty. (Signed) PAUL CARR. May 12, 1929. 321 St. Nicholas avenue. SPECIAL ARTICLES based upon race and color. Just so long as the states insist in imposing such invidious distinction, just so long should the disadvantaged group embarrass the courts to fix a scientifically ascertained discriminant. Who is a Negro? How does the jury know but that any given person of color has the requisite quota of white blood? What right have the authorities to make an unintelligent conductor a judge of ethnological values? I see that Louis Marshall has injected this troublesome query into the instance of segregation in a case now on its way to the Supreme Court. The court of last resort will probably dodge the definition. There is no possible excuse for the Federal government to make race and color distinctions among citizens. Whatever color justifications the states with heavy non-white contingencies may have imposed, setting up these distinctions the government is under no such pressure. The element under discussion constitutes less than ten per cent of the total population. The Federal government does not deal with the intimate social and personal relations of its citizens, but mainly with those broad and general features which apply to all alike. The Federal government cannot afford to set up separate cars, separate schools and separate residential areas for the different racial varieties within its borders. In so doing it stultifies its high pretensions of the equal protection of the man, which can only mean the identical protection of the law for all citizens. It will be interesting to watch the sparring match between Mr. Marshall and the Supreme Court over the issue—"Who is a Negro?" I predict a skillful piece of judicial dodging. od --- thick lips, etc., might not yet be born into the English royal family. There is also a Prince Torby and, according to the European papers, the Grand Duke's children include the Count Michael Torby and the Marchioness of Milford Haven. Now with all this nobility and royalty descending from a Negro slave stolen from a harem, the American white with his system of royalty based on skin-color—a color that he shares with a side of newly-shaved pork or a cold-storage chicken—cuts, to say the least, a ridiculous figure. If European royalty with all its wealth, exclusiveness, and its hordes of henchmen cannot maintain a closed caste, how can an indiscrimination mass of other humanity composed, like white America, of archbishops and arch-thieves; architects and arch-murderers; of presidents, pimps and poets; philosophers, paupers and prostitutes; of lawyers and lunatics; of lackeys and luminaries; of bootleggers, bankers and barbers, ever hope to do so? Because of Pushkin's importance it is easy to trace his descendants, but think of the melting pot in America where few persons know even the ancestry of their grandfather. How then can the far greater part of white Southerners know that there is not some Negro ancestor somewhere in their line they have been mixing with Negroes from a time antedating Hannibalaloff. A so-called white skin in America is a system of exploitation pure and simple. I have said this many times and shall say so many times more. Some day our Negro leaders, writers and others are going to cease looking at the race question in the sentimental way they at present and see it for what it is — a cold-blooded money proposition. If, as was said, European royalty with all its organized power has not been able to itself free from the encroachments of castes, Caucasian and Negro, how then the extremely unorganized and undigested mass of Southern whites in comparison been able to do so? The American castle system is a fraud—a fraud of which the victims are their fellow citizens of darker complexions.

That the influence of the Negro is being felt increasingly in the field of art, letters, music and culture is the discovery of Joseph Chapro, who announces further in the American Negro "stagebait" that the American Negro, particularly, is becoming conscious of his emerging power. Keeping Fit A Health Column dedicated to the memory of Dr. E. Elliott Rawlins (1882-1928) By Lucien M. Brown, M.D Heart Trouble EVERYONE realizes that the heart is one of the most vital organs of the body, and any disturbance in and about it will be cause for much anxiety. Among the common symptoms which are often mistaken for heart trouble is that of pain in the region of the heart. In most cases this pain is produced in the stomach from indigestion and gas, inflammation of the nerves and muscles of the chest and the covering of the lungs. The commonest condition of pain in the heart comes from an acute inflammation of its covering, seen as a complication of acute rheumatic fever, scarlet fever, influenza, etc. the lungs will be retarded, hence the blue appearance of nails, lips and skin, shortness of breath, cough and the suffocated feeling when living on your back. The other disease which produces pain of the heart is a fatal condition known as Angina Pectoris. This pain is like no other in that it is most excruciating and gives the sensation of being squeezed by a powerful it is usually sudden in onset and gives a poor whistle feeling of impending death. The real cause of this serious disease is believed to be a spasm or a blocking of the blood vessels in the heart muscle. Just as the valves become diseased, so does the muscle of the heart. The muscle fibers may lose their elasticity and become weak, or they may be replaced by fat or non-elastic fibrous tissue. The poliosis from diphtheria have a special affinity for heart muscle, and many a patient with a severe form of good recovery f. m this disease, only to fall dead during his or her convalescence by too early exertion, such as climbing stairs. The symptoms which we know as heart trouble can very easily be accounted for, if we think of the heart as being a pump which has many diseases and many diseased conditions mentioned. The circulation of blood through To Improve Tomb of Emancipator-President SPRINGFIELD, Ill., May 13—The State of Illinois is planning to improve the surroundings of the tomb of Abraham Lincoln to have them in keeping with the dignity of a national shrine. Governor Louis L. Emerson made this known Friday and the Legislature is expected to appropriate the necessary funds. The present museum room will be eliminated and all of the open space around the base of the granite obelisk that tops the heights of the Oak Ridge Cemetery here will be suitably landscaped. A softly-lighted doorway into the crypt where a new sarcophagus will be erected behind a grill. The carvings that indicate where other members of the Lincoln family are buried will remain and a few bronze tablets bearing some of the great sayings of the Emancipator may be placed on the walls. It is likely that uniformed soldiers will stand guard at the outer entrance to the tomb and at the inner grill. Health Clinic Will Urge Aliens to Learn English Foreigners who seek treatment at the clinic of the Harlem Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, 202 West 136th street, must learn to speak English, according to a ruling announced Saturday by Doley Keaton, executive secretary. The ruling became necessary, the director said, because physicians and nurses at the clinic find difficulty in making diagnosis when the patient's language is misunderstood. No person will be turned away, however, she explained. School children frequently act as interpreters for persons from the West Indies and South America. Records will be kept of non-English speaking aliens and they will be urged to stand clear of interpreters by the organization. The movement is expected to bring about an increase in naturalized citizens. Meharry President Writes of Growth NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 13 (ANP) —How Meharry Medical College has grown from a small school with five students and one instructor to a grade-A medical college is graphically told in brief historical sketch by Dr. John J. Mullowney, president of the institution. The pamphlet which was published recently declares that the first graduate degree of the institution was composed of one man who received his degree in 1877. From this humble beginning the institution now boasts of an enrollment of several hundred and a faculty of eighty highly trained men. To remedy this condition the institution is now in the midst of a financial campaign to raise funds to meet the gift of more than $2,000,000 which will make Meharry one of the best equipped professional schools in the United States. colored race were not qualified for the positions.

There is no reserve muscle energy to do any extra amount of physical exertion, and fatigue takes place readily. The progressive swelling starting in the feet is simply due to the mechanical of a defective pump there is a form of irregularity which also accompanies this poor muscular condition, which must not be confused with the simple irregularities produced tea, coffee, tobacco and pernicious Palins in the region of the heart, irregularity of the heart beat, and murmurs over the heart area need not necessarily mean that one has heart disease. If you are in doubt about the condition of your heart, have it examined. This may relieve your mind of unnecessary worry, and if there is trouble present you will have a much better chance of being helped. You can be instructed how to live and work, and you can be on a weak organ. The idea of being afraid to find out about the condition of your body is almost childish. There are more well people who "know" that their heart, lungs and kidneys are bad than there are people who are actually suffering from disease of these organs.

A pilgrimage to make. This day of all, to wend my way; All else I must forsake. To bow before a shrine of Love, To reimbue my soul; That with my deeds, throughout the years I drink to one whose toll Of Life was paid in sacrifice, That I might be a man; Periled her soul, waxed body-worn with tears and wan Unthinking with few worldly goods, David of selfishness. Aking God not that her own soul But that mine He might bless. A thousand other prayers and hopes Ten thousand cares and woes. She bore unfailing with a smile Until in death's repose Her Maker had her shed them all And fill her place in line With other Mothers, long since gone. Who built and left a shrine. So, as I kneel this Mother's Day with millions, just like me. I pray that Thou would make of me The soul she hoped I'd be. WILLIAM FERNANDIS GRIFIN, ```markdown ``` My Mecca
