TWO U.S. MARINE RULE IN HAITI SEEN AS COLOSSAL FAILURE Unofficial Report Places Number Killed at Aux Cayes at Twelve—Natives Practically Defenseless By LOUIS R. LAUTIER. (Special Correspondent of The Amsterdam News.) WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 9.—Coincident with of an official report that five Haitians (unofficial mate twelve) had been killed and twenty wounded by marines at Aux Cayes last Saturday, President Hes special message to Congress asking authority for the dispatch of a commission to Haiti to review and study situation in that republic with a view to arriving "as definite policy than exists at present." An appropriation was requested for that purpose. WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 9.—Coincident with the receipt of an official report that five Haitians (unofficial reports estimate twelve) had been killed and twenty wounded by American marines at Aux Cayes last Saturday, President Hoover sent a special message to Congress asking authority for the immediate dispatch of a commission to Haiti to review and study the internal situation in that republic with a view to arriving "at some more definite policy than exists at present." An appropriation of $50,000 was requested for that purpose. Recent disturbances in Haiti, the President said, emphasize the importance of such an investigation and determination of national policies with respect to the situation there in the immediate future. Congress will probably take prompt action on President Hower's proposal according to statements by members of the House foreign affairs committee.

Koenig, deprived one of Harlem's two aldermen of the minority leadership of the Board of Aldermen, on Monday night, when John Clifford Hawkins, alderman of the Twenty-first District, in a signed statement, asserted that he did not say that he "was too busy to take the minority leadership." Mr. Hawkins' statement, in full, is as follows: "I was a candidate for the office of Minority Leader of the Board of Aldermen, and I was defeated. "I did, at no time, say to anyone that I was too busy to take the minority leadership or to do the added work which this position requires; nor have I at any time authorized any person, high or low, to make any such statement for me or on my behalf. "I wanted the minority leadership and thought then and think now that I am entitled to it on my record, my experience, my party regularity, and upon the merits." The other alderman is Fred R. Moore, who was quoted last week as having said that he was not a candidate for the office. It is not known whether or not Alderman Moore supported Hawkins for the post when a conference was held at Koenig's office last Monday, but in view of Mr. Moore's stand on race leadership, it is difficult to understand how he This Week's News Index General Local and National News 1, 2, 3, 4 News of Society.....

Other than the statement given out by Chairman Koenig it is not known exactly what took place at the conference. There were only four Republican aldermen elected to the board and it is difficult to see how the designation of J. C.

Thorpe, 32, a chauffeur, 676 St. Nicholas avenue, was freed of a charge of assault Friday in General Sessions. Expecting to be sent to the penitentiary, Thorpe was saved by the investigation of the probation department, which showed that he had acted in self-defense when attacked by Jack Perkins, white, 917 Ogden avenue, Bronx, on Aug. 13. The stabbing occurred at Riverside drive and 145th street as Perkins' car blocked the road. When Thorpe, accompanied by a woman and her daughter, blew his horn for the right of way, Perkins became incensed and violently cursed him. The white man came back to the car and threatened the chauffeur. Ray Murphy, also white, was in the car with Perkins and got out to fight Thorpe. He advanced and struck the driver in the face, breaking his glasses. He then obtained a wrench and launched the attack anew. Thorpe grappled and was getting the better of his assailant with his fists when Perkins entered the fray. Shot and Beaten. With odds against him, Thorpe pulled out a knife and stabbed Perkins. The other white man continued to fight him with the wrench. As the chauffeur threw off his attacker and re-entered his car, Detective John A.

The detective and another police officer beat the wounded prisoner before they took him to the West 152d street station house. Witnessed Affair. Judge Bertini, before whom the defendant was arraigned, was informed of the true circumstances by George O'Hara and J. S.

After the verdict had been rendered Judge Barrett gave Brown a scatling lecture, saying: "There is one person in the room who knows you're guilty. You're getting away with it and you're lucky." "You've been given the benefit of the doubt. Take that smile off your face. You'll go wrong unless you take this as a lesson. Get out of the fighting game. You're not the innocent being that an impression of you gives." Brown contended that he killed Barnett in self-defense when the latter attacked him with a knife on Aug. 15, 1928. He also charged that the fatal argument was the result of his defending a white boy from Barnet's 15-year-old son.

Mondon, who had been in charge of the house at 154th street for three years, according to his wife, Elizabeth, had gone to the roof at 10:30 a.m. to remove some bricks which had fallen from a chimney. Mrs. Mondon said she followed him to the roof to help him as her husband had been feeling badly for some time. "When I reached the roof," said Mrs. Mondon, "my husband was leaning over the edge of the roof with a number of bricks in his hands as though he was about to drop them to the courtyard below. I called to him not to drop the bricks there. "I must have startled him, for in attempting to raise his body and answer me he suddenly slipped and fell headlong from the roof."

The fire, believed to have been caused by the ignition of the highly combustible films stored in the building, spread with such rapidity that twenty-five fire engines were called to fight the flames before their deadly onslaught could be checked. A rehearsal was in progress at the studio at the time when the fire was discovered. Actors and employees worked frantically in an attempt to extinguish the fire, but to no avail, and twenty of them are now in Harlem Hospital, many of them injured seriously.

Before anyone could go to her aid the now excited listeners outside the door of the Booker apartment heard the dull tussle of a body striking the floor.

Robert Elder, 33, 362 West 127th street, who the police say is wanted in Philadelphia for the murder of Miss Lucy McCullers, his common-law wife, whom he is alleged to have killed with an axe on July 10, 1925, was arrested in his home by Detectives Graham and Kanmerer of the West 123d street station and charged with being a fugitive from justice. Arraigned last Wednesday before Magistrate Goodman in Harlem Court, Elder was held without ball pending the arrival of extradition papers. He is alleged to have admitted his guilt, the police say. Elder and Miss McCullers were living at 2129 Vine street, Philadelphia, where the murder is alleged to have taken place. Elder, according to the story told by the police, returned home and found Miss McCullers in the company of another man. He picked up the axe and attacked both, it is charged. The man fled from the apartment, although he was struck several blows and injured. Miss McCullers was beaten into unconsciousness and was removed to the hospital, where she died five days later.

The force of marines in Haiti is under the direct command of Brig. Gen. John J. Russell, the American High Commissioner. In immediate command of the detachment of 650 marines in Haiti is Col. R. M.

The aviation detachment comprises 90 officers and men, who are included in the entire contingent in Haiti.

The High Commissioner of Haiti, Brig.

The administration had already announced that 500 marines had been ordered sent to Haiti. The majority leader of the House, Representative John Q.

Needham Piano 520 WEST 48th STREET NEW YORK CITY WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1929 PASTOR QUITS WHEN CHURCH BARS NEGROES DETROIT, Mich., Dec. 9 (ANP)—Because the church council refused to admit Negroes to the membership, Rev. A. J. Helm, white, resigned as pastor of the Bethel Evangelical Church of Detroit, according to an announcement made here Sunday. A colored man and woman had attended the church for several years and recently had applied for membership. The pastor recommended that they be accepted, but the church council steadfastly refused on grounds of color. Discussing the affair, Dr. Helm declared: "To refuse church membership to anyone not of the same race is to deny the most obvious teaching of Jesus and to give the ethical sanctions of Christianity to race prejudice."

The Presentation Is Being Made by Peter G. Ottendolfer, the Station Superintendent. Veteran Letter Carrier Sets Himself For Long Rest After 40 Years on Job After walking the distance around the earth many times over in the performance of his duties as a letter carrier for the past forty years, twenty-eight of them spent at Station J, 309 West 1235 street, William H. Norwood, 65, of 856 Elsmere place, Bronx, plans to take a good, long rest following his retirement on Saturday from the postal service. When interviewed on Monday by a reporter of The Amsterdam News, Mr. Norwood sketched in brief the history of his service as a letter carrier. I was first appointed as a letter carrier in 1889 in the town of my birth, Wilmington, N. C., and remained there for eleven years. During that time all of the carriers were forced to work longer than the officially recognized eight-hour day. In 1896 I began litigation to recover the back pay due all the postal clerks in the city of Wilmington for the extra hours of work we had performed without pay. We were finally awarded claims totalling $4,571. Republicans Plan All Year Program Naturalization, Housing and Health Among New Projects "I was transferred from Wilmington in 1900 at my own request and was sent to Station B (New York) on East Grand street. The foreign element residing in the neighborhood made this a very difficult station. "I remained there only for one year and that year saw the assassination of President McKinley and the succession of Roosevelt. The last station was Station J. I have been in Harlem, at Station J, on West 125th street. "I have never been idle before and it will probably seem strange not to be making my regular rounds, but I am sure that I shall enjoy the change. I have no plans for the future except that I plan to take a good rest." Fellow workers of the veteran mail carrier, who will be 66 on Jan. 8, gave him a roaring an enthusiastic applause on Saturday at Station J. Supt. Peter J. Otterdorfer presented him with a gold watch in behalf of the employees of the station. LUNCHROOM OPENED AT HARLEM SCHOOL As a result of the continued efforts of the North Harlem Community Council, P.

Hamilton J. Travis, president of the club, and Aaron Smith, chairman of programs and publicity, have just completed plans for the new year which will make the Appomattox Republican Club a center of community life. According to these two leaders, the club's new policy of activity will include almost every phase of civic life and will be prepared to give aid in the matter of legal advice, naturalization, housing, sanitation, health, employment and industry. To meet the needs which these new problems will present, the club will be in session every night with the heads of each department present ready to function. The law committee will be composed of five lawyers, with Alderman John Clifford Hawkins as the chairman. The naturalization committee will be headed by Edward Watts and will hold its first meeting tomorrow evening. A victory smoker is planned for Saturday evening at the clubhouse to celebrate the new organization, the women's auxiliary of the club will be headed by Hester Green and Saddle Wright. The club is housed in a four-story private house with spacious conference, committee rooms and auditorium. Charles W. B.

Gifford, President of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. 25 years ago, such a statement would have been received with polite incredulity. Today it is accepted without reservation. For such has been the progress of telephony, even in the past ten years, that we may look forward expectantly to even more amazing achievements. Ten years ago less than 12,000,000 people in this country were united to each other by the speech network of the telephone. Today, from your telephone, you can talk to any one of nearly 29,000,000 telephones, here and abroad. So we draw nearer that day when a person in New York State can reach by telephone anyone in the world with whom he wishes to talk—a day when Mr. Gifford's statement will have become an accomplished fact.

Day alleged that he was arrested on Aug. 25 by Hoffman and Daley at his home. The arresting officers he charged assaulted him with blackjacks and clubs and kept him in a small room at the City Hall from 3 o'clock in the morning until late in the afternoon. He alleged that in an effort to force him to confess to McGain's murder they repeatedly slapped him with their hands and struck him with butt ends of pistols, kicked him in the stomach, dragged him over the floor, twisted his left arm, hit him with a rubber hose and placed a rope around his neck. The blows, he charged, broke a bone in the left side of his face, three ribs, inflicted innumerable cuts and brushes and forced him to undergo an operation on Nov. 27 for an injury to glands in his thigh. He asked $15,000 damages. $122.40 for lost wages. $25 for medical treatment. Robert C. Logan is his attorney.

Millspaugh Blames Military Rule in Haiti TEETH EXTRACTED FREE Come and be convinced, and I assure you, you will never be afraid to have a tooth pulled again. No charge if I hurt you! A. C. Millspaugh Military Rule 一 In a signed article published by the New York World, Dr. A. C. Millspaugh, of Kuala mazoo, Mich., emphasized the wisdom and necessity for the appointing of such a commission as President Hoover proposes. Dr. Millspaugh will be remembered as the former financial minister who left the blind under mystifying circumstances in 1927, at which time it was charged that the State Department had asked for his resignation because of his repeated attacks on American extratourism there. Dr. Millspaugh says in part: "Since our intervention in 1915 America has maintained a military occupation in Haiti and has practically controlled the civil government of that republic. This American intellegue of a nominally sovereign foreign nation has been based on the country of 1915. The American government has periodically announced by official spokesman of the American Government, to is create conditions of stability in that country." Haitian Situation Still Uncertain (Continued from Page 2.) nal results in improvement of the material condition of that people. Yet our experience has revealed more clearly than was seen at first the difficulties of the problem, and the entire situation should be reviewed in the light of this experience. "Since the dispatch of my message, disturbances in Haiti emphasize the importance of such an investigation and determination of national policies in the immediate future. "The students at the agricultural school at Damien went on a strike on Oct. 31 as a protest against a new policy of the Haitian government. The Haitian government had heretofore allotted $10,000 per annum to this school for scholarships, but this year it withheld $2,000 of the appropriation in order to make it possible for needy students to perform practical school work on the grounds. "Systematic strikes were subsequently declared in the medical and law schools. President Borno appointed a committee of Haitians to inquire into the matter and it seemed probable at the time that recommendations presented by this committee and accepted by the authorities would adjust the difficulty. "Unfortunately, advantage was taken of the situation by various agencies to foment disturbances against the Haitian administration and on December 3 the American High Commissioner reported that the strike movement had spread throughout the country and that it was feared that the Haitian employees of the departments under American treaty officials might become involved. "On December 4 custom house employees at Port-au-Prince abandoned their work in a disorderly manner and crowds have gathered in Port-au-Prince. At the same time there were reported demonstrations by crowds at Cape Haitien in sympathy with the disturbance in Port-au-Prince. The American High Commissioner reported that on the morning of December 4 it was feared that disorderly conditions would arise at Aux Cayes and similar disturbances were possible at other places. "The High Commissioner has asked that additional marines be in readiness to make sure that if the situation becomes serious American lives will be protected.

Telephone Monmu EASY WEEKLY PAYMENT [Plates Repaired Whi "Since 1918 Halif has made substantial progress and the American administration has to its credit much tungible constructive accomplishment, particularly along the lines of publicing, public health, education and public works. After giving due weight to material progress and constructive accomplishment, however, it is evident that conditions essential to stable self-government have not been established in Halif, and there is no reasonable grounds for believing such conditions can be essential before the expiration of the treaty. "On account of various circumstances due partly to original shortcomings of the treaty, American effort has not been intelligently planned, effectively organized and vigorously directed. There has been no expert study, such as President Hoover apparently contemplated, aimed at finding the solution to the difficult, complicated problem of ensuring stable, self-government for our primitive, ignorant and politically inexperienced Negro population." and the force he has suggested has been ordered dispatched for that purpose. "I feel that it is most desirable that the commission mentioned in my message of December 3 be constituted and sent to Haiti without delay and I, therefore, request the Congress to authorize the immediate sending of such a commission and to appropriate for this purpose $50,000. It is my intention to include one or two members from each House of Congress on this commission." Fish for Commission. Meanwhile Representative Hamilton Fish, Republican, of New York member of the foreign affairs committee, introduced in the House last Saturday a resolution to provide for the Haitian situation. The text of his resolution is as follows: "Whereas, the prime object of the treaty entered into by the Government of the United States with Haiti in 1916, which expires in 1936, was the development of the capacity of the Haitian people to establish a responsible and orderly government of their own in Haiti, and "Whereas, it is the desire of the Congress of the United States that the terms of the treaty be strictly adhered to in order to intelligently prepare the Haitian people for self-government by 1936, when they will of necessity assume all governmental powers upon the withdrawal of the American troops and officials in accordance with the pledges stated in the treaty." "Resolved, that the President of the United States is hereby authorized to appoint a commission, not exceeding seven members, to visit Halif, and inquire into the occupation and administration of the territories of that republic by the armed forces and public officials of the United States, and to make a comprehensive report as to whether the United States Government has fulfilled the terms of the treaty and to recommend a program, or policies, that might be put into effect under the present government of Halif, which would benefit the people and prepare them for self-government and afford a satisfactory solution of a difficult problem that must be settled before we can honorably consider leaving Halif." Senator IWiliam E. Borah, Republican, of Idaho, chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee, said that President Hoover's message will probably be considered tomorrow. "Widespread Unrest"—Borah. "The immediate disturbances in Hali't is only symptomatic of a widespread and bitter unrest," Senator Borah declared. "The oppression and cruelty of the present government of Hali't is something beyond the power of language to describe, something you would not suppose could take place anywhere in this day and age. It does seem to me that if we are going to stay in Hali't, the least we can do is to compel the government of Hali't to be just and merciful toward these unfortunate people. If there is a program, as indicated in the President's message, or cleaning up that situation, I want help to present conditions are intolerable." Senator William H. King, Democrat, of Utah, long an advocate of the withdrawn of the American forces of occupation and Haitian independence, said: "The situation in Haiti has been far from satisfactory. The Haitian people resent American occupation, and no matter how long we maintain marine and military forces, there will be smoldering resentments, which will prevent the desired development of Haiti. "The United States ought some time ago to have indicated its unr ```markdown ``` pose to withdraw and permit the people of Haiti to set up a government of their choice. "I shall support the President's suggestion that a commission be appointed to investigate the situation, if I am able to attend the Senate. However, unless a proper commission is appointed, the result will not be satisfactory and will accomplish no good." Grand Jury to Get Striver's Row M.D Grand Jury to Get Striver's Row M.D Dr. A. A.

Holdbrooks, 48, fashionable physician, with offices at 118 West 139th street, was held in $3,000 bail for the Grand Jury on Thursday, when arraigned before Magistrate Well of Washington Heights Court on a serious charge involving a 14-year-old girl.

Furlow, sales manager of the company, with three of his assistants, acted as host for the company. After inspection of the store, the members of the association were invited into the company's assembly rogn. Mr. Furlow welcomed the visitors, and then explained scientifically the present-day set-up of the modern grocery store. Other speakers were Albon L. Holsey, secretary of the National Negro Business League, who is organizing Negro grocers in all parts of the country, and H. C. Francis, president of the Harlem Colored Merchants' Association. Cigars and refreshments were served, and at the close of the meeting each visitor was presented a gift box containing an assortment of Premier Food samples. The Harlem Colored Merchants' Association operating as C. M. A. Stores is an organization of twenty-three grocers who are seeking to improve their selling methods and to expand their service by co-operative buying and co-operative advertising. At a meeting last Wednesday night Mr. Holsey announced that the grocery account of the Harlem Charity Organization Society would be handled through the C. M. A. Stores. This represents one of the largest grocery orders ever handled through Negro retail grocery channels. Heretofore this business has been handled through one of the large grocery corporations which operates a chain of stores in Harlem. "Our success in securing this business for the Harlem C. M. A. Stores," said Mr. Holsey, "was made possible through the personal interest of Miss Downs, the director of the Harlem Charity Organization Society, in all matters relating to the advancement of our people and is a fine example of the value of co-operation in business."

William O'Nell, father of the girl, came here armed with the family Bible to prove the age of his daughter in case her future is threatened on this score.

Montero met her May 1 and asked her to have intercourse with him, the girl declared to police. When she refused he returned the next day and asked her to visit his barge. When she consented he locked her inside and returned to her room and brought Leln's clothes to the barge. There he beat her prisoner three days and left.

In listing the cost of nine months of married life, Mr, Mott submits the following figures: Thirty-five thousand shares General Motors stock to wile, $1.360,000; wife's attorney feces, $100,000; pearl neck- lace, $18,000; diamonds, $35,000; remodeling her apartment,, $35,000; pocket money, $50,000; honeymoon expenses, $200.00; his attorney fees, $200,000; total, $1,998,000. ‘These two persons admit that they were unhappy to- gether—money didn’t make the road smooth, Mrs. Mott contends that her husband has an income of $5,000,000 a year, and surely it is not too much for him to give his wife $100,000 a year for herself. Perhaps not, but even the money of the rich ought to be used more wisely.

Jf we have perchance taken advantage of the good nature of the managing editor of this paper by using space which he feels could have been utilized for better purposes, tt ‘was not without an honesty of purpose bred by a desire to call a halt to the tendency of eo many of the writers of color on journals of sundown hue all ‘over the country to take from the col- umns of this paper without due credit matter which it has taken time and money and unusual effort to produce. ‘Among the many interested readers of the controversy we find Vere E. Johns, a stranger within our gates and ‘one who will be gracing these columns from time to time with contributions which we are certain will meet with the approval of the mafority of our readers, Mr. Johns has voluntarily “set in” on the ease as fudge and jury, and in his usual interesting style has submitted his opinion which appears in another part of these theatrical pages under the head of “Guilty or Not Guilty?” If we are not mistaken, Mr, Johns will also be among the contributors to the special Christmias and anniver- sary number of the Amsterdam News coming out next week,and under the circumstances we do’ not belleve it would be out of keeping to formally introduce this young man to our read- ers, despite the good things we have previously sald of him as an actor, Mr. Johns was bom at Mandeville in the island of Jamaica, British West Indies, Nov. 4, 1893, son of the Rev. M. F, Johns, B. A. (London) headmaster of the Manchester High Schoo}, Educated by his father, he success- tully passed the juntor and sentor 1o- cal examinations of the University of Cambridge in England, entering the Jamaica Civil Service in April, 1912, und was appointed to the Post Office Tepariment. After the outbreak of ‘yo +" war Johns left for England at o vense in July, 1915, and en- hi 14a che South Lancashire Rer!- ment, selling for Egypt shortly after, when ho had successfully applied for a transfer to the First Battalion, Brit- ish West Indies Regiment. He saw active service for the dura- tion of the war in Palestine and Syria, and was awarded the Military Medal for bravery in the field during Gen- eral Allenby's onslaught on the Gaza- Beersheba Iine in November, 1917, The investiture was later made by Gen- eral Carey-Bemard at Taranto, Ttals, in June, 1919. Johns returned to Ja- maica and resumed hls official. dutles in January, 1920, and was promoted to the Coliector General's Department ‘the same year and {s now the Chief Statistical Officer, and is simply en- Joying a vacation in this country, ‘With a natural love for the stage he has had ten years’ experience in dra- matic acting and concert work, play- ing with professional companies and taining amateurs; producing and di- Tecting plays, stage management and organizing entertainments, He also made an intensive study of elocution, and in 1926 was awarded the Gold Medal as champion of his country. He ‘has also taken part in track athletics and soccer football. As capiain of both the track and football elevens o? the ¥. M.C. A, he led his teams to victory year’ after year and placed them inthe highest position in the 1s- land's sport. Other activities of this interesting young visitor also found him as cap- tain and adjutant of the Church of England's Lads’ Brignde, executive po- sitions of debating and Mterary s0- cleties, and social service and charita- ble work of al? discription, He is also an experienced writer, being sporting eritic of the Jamalea Daily Times sporting and dramatic critic of the Jamaica Mail, as well as columnist and contributor to several tnonthly magazines.

Although Miss Snow has not been een in this country for some time. her namo is already well known to discerning plavgoers in the Harlem sector of the city, Miss Snow was born in Washington, and early showed an aptitude for mu- sic, studying the violin, cornet, and the drums, ‘She was an admirer’ of Flor- ence Mls and the great colored star Induced Lew Leslie to see Miss Snow in her musical specialty. Leslle did, but decided that the girl ss a musician Was no great Novelty for his produc- tlon, He told her that she had a pleas- ing volce nnd danced fairly well, and that if she developed these arts she would some day become a stage star of merit. Miss Snow quickly abandoned Fher musical art and began to study Voice culture, dramaties, and dancing. ‘The scene’ now shifts to London. Lew Lesile’s “Blackbirds,” with the ate Florence Milis, was then tho reigning success over there. — Miss ‘Snow walked in, showed Lew Leslie ‘what she could do, and he made her understudy to Florence Milis.

The New Work Am#tertam News WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1929 GUILTY OR NOT GUILT? DO not lay claim to be ranked among those individuals who style them— selves a5 Journalists, nor yet even less do T aspire to be numbered among those select few who are really journalists every sense of the ord, and are typical examples of all that journailsm stands for; but I Rave'seribbled somewhat during the last decade and at times have had a word of commendation from men and women who have reached @ high innacis in the annals of journalism. Whet {s usually sald of me is that Pielke as T thine and write ae 1 feel, without fear or favor.

With such « background {ft is not strange that a lot of my preclous nickels have gone into the hands of the newsboys so that I may closely gsiudy, the Journalism to be found tn this large country. “Since my_ arrival hore, « few months ago, x hye nover falted to purchase a copy of both The Amsterdam News and ‘The Tattler, and specially scan thelr theatrical and Sporting pages. I have not found much to find fault with, but for the ast few weeks we have been treated to @ spirited and (to my mind) re- frettable controversy being waged between Mr, Romeo L. Doitgherty (amsterdam News), and Mr. Wilfred Bain (Tattier), that has filled me with surprise and Sorrow: surprise at the audacity of the deed that has apparently been perpetmated and sorrow that the fine art of journalism should be so dragged through the mire. Actuated by these emotions, I conceived the idea of summing up the situation, ‘This Z_ do unasked, tine biased and purely on the evidence that I have before me in the shape of the articles in question. I have also decided to send the finished product to ‘The Amsterdam News for the sole reason that all my writing in this country has been through thelr columns, I am by nature conctont 7, have read and reread the writings of both gentlemen, holding the scales of justice evenly, sitting the evidence carctuly anu exploring every angie of thought and even hunted that little imp, the printer's devil, atl over The Tattler page in the hope of laying the blame on his shoulders, I Present the Case ‘On & certain date an article from Mr. Dougherty’s pen appeared in The Amsterdam News entitled “The Return of Robeson.” For half the column Mr. Dougherty eulogized the illustrious Paul and then began a paragraph with these words: “But let a more gifted pen tell the tale etc.” ‘Then follows a fine and comprehensive introduction of Mr. James Douglas of the London Dally Express. Having told us all about Mr. Douglas, Mr. Dougherty prefacing ‘Says Mr. Douglas," gives us with proper marks and bold type the article which Mr. Douglas wrote of Mr. Robeson in the Lon don paper. All this is in accordance with the rules of journalism: both Mr, Douglis and the London Daily Express hate been given credit for the article. ‘And now the sequel, One week later, Mr. Wilired Bain writes an article in ‘The Tattler entitled “Tribute Pala Paul Robeson by. English Writer; Flays Prejudice” Again Mr. Douglas’ article is presented to the public;’ that was well. T personally thought that every paper in the country should have reproduced the article. But as in the caso of The Amsterdam News, a paragraph precedes st and herein ies all the trouble.

Sage Ate Deurines Tt will be mn that they are identical word for word from “James Douglas. no ‘upstart, ete, to Loo ends but ie le tn the sentence Inmedlsvels preceding this that Mr. Bain's differs and which proves the main bone of contention. I repeat it: “And as if to confirm our early beliefs one of Englanc’s greatest journalists has given Paul Robeson the palm of a Genius in the following language.” Instead of following this up with the Aruicle from the Daily Express, Mr. Bain proceeds to give us the same introduction of Mr. Douglas that Mr. Dougherty wrote in The Amsterdam. News a week before, and had a reader not seen the latter it would un- doubtedly be taken as the product of Mr. Bain's brain. ‘This, of course, did not sult Mr. Dougherty, who promptly took Mr. Bain to task and preferred two charges against Rim, vir. 1. ‘That Mr. Bain had ‘referred to him as “one of England's greatest Journalists” “2” That Mr. Bain had stolen his introduction from ‘The Amsterdam News and made it appear as having been written by the said great English journalist. I gannot altogether agree with these charges. Mr. Bain, by misplacing that borrowed (?) introduction hes confused the sense and given such an im- ression on the surface, but if his paragraph is rend carefully a new Rene will be thrown on the matter. After reading the whole paragraph I came to the conclusion that the great Journalist and. James Douglas were one and the same person; obviously, therefore, James Douglas would not culogize and introduce himself, and ‘so It follows that either there Is an- other and unnamed great English journalist: who wrote the introauetion, oF. #t is intended to represent, the outcome of Mr. Bain’s brain; Mr. Douzherty has taken the first view, I have taken the second. ‘Turning to Mr. Bain's writings for explanation ‘or rebuttal, I discovered a velied and half-hearted admission that the introduction is Mr. Dougherty's thus: “——and we have proven its value by past experience and experiment that 2 good story is always worth repeating, “And T might add, it makes no difference {0° where that story originated. Whether from the mouths of babies or from the pen of a self-ststed ‘dean’ of the profession.” If Mr, Bain meals t0 infer by that that he felt quite justified in taking Mr. Dougherty's intreduc- tion because it was @ good one, does he not know that one of the elementary rules of journalism is that the source of anything that is reproduced must always be given? Had he left out the offending paragraph and merely tacked on James Dovglas’ article to his without saying who wrote it and where it was taken from, he would probabiy, be devoting all his energies by this in staving off a double Jegal onslaught from both Mr. Douglas and the London Daily Express; as it is, Mr. Dougherty’s introduction fulfilled the requirements and saved him from that. The Charge Is obviously that Mr. Bain took Mr. Dougherty's introduction and made it sae as his own, composition and that he prefaced it with some very bad English which made {t at @ causal glance appear to have been written by a great English journalist. 1 Sum Up 1, 2 self-appointed fudge, do now sum up by putting certain questions to a self-appointed a also myself: i—Who wrote the {ntroduction first? Ans—Mr. Dougherty. 2-Did it appear in ‘The Tattler word for word? Anse cres. 3—Assuming that you had not seen it before it appeared in The Tattler, whom would you say had written it? Ans—Mr. Wilfred Bain. 4—Would’ you belleve it had been’ copied from an English journal? Ans.—Not unless Mr. Bain produced the ‘paper bearing a date prior to that of The Amsterdam News. y 5—Was Mr. Bain justified in using the introduction ‘without acknowl- edging ts source? “Ans—Emphatically. no. 6—In so doing is Mr, Bain gullty of a grave breach of Journalistic etiquette, rules and ethics?“ Ans—Most assuredly, . Foreman: And So Say We All In my opinion, unless Mr. Bain can find contrary answers to the above guestions and substantiate same with genuine Proofs, then he has no further excuse for writing even cne more syllable on this matter, and the only decent thing for him to do is to admit his error and make’ adequate apology to Mr. Dougherty and to his readers.

Which, to our way of thinking, proves that Mr. Dancer is not acquainted with the demands of a period which he has been living in. Maud deeve. Among other things Mr. Dancer also points out that the singing of the chorus of the present day is superior to that of the past. If there is one thing which is when we hear it, it is the presence of present day revue choruses singing better than those trained young women who had to meet the exacting demands of men like Bill Elkins and a host of others whose ability to perform a particular line of work is questioned. Everything where the chorus of the present day is concerned is proof positive of the great change brought about by the late World War. Before that terrible calamity and earlier, more than ever, the war, williams and Walker, the Smart Set Company headed by the late Ernest Hogan, and others of the period, art had a great deal to do with the present day revue choruses singing the music of such as Will Marlon Cooke had to come pretty near singing. The violence of jazz is noted in our revues and if there is a chorus of color who sings it, it is to the satisfaction of Bill Elkins, Will Cooke and their kind, we are prepared to eat last summer's straw hat in explication of whatever Mr. Dancers claim. As proof of our contention note how the touch of the old-timer is evident in those shows which have found unusual favor on Broadway. *Porsy* engineered by Ceil Mack, better known today as R. C. McPherson, did a great deal towards making of Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds" the success it turned out to be. The band called for the training of the people to sing harmoniously, which reminds one that it was the kind of singing the dancing choruses of the shows of the 1950s, to bring to those productions. Men like J. Rosmond Johnson had studiously acquired the art of harmony and their ears could not stand the vioce of the music. It was noted in present day so-called singing. The truth of the matter is that our revue choruses are gathered for looks and looks primarily, song numbers and songs, and the producers being concerned about their singing—especially since the numbers are right in keeping with the times and devoid, in the majority of cases, of those things which make up the real musical productions of real musical productions by Negroes to look back and recall that poor indeed was the show which could not boast of a number of tunes hit which set audiences to a theatre even on the first night. The musical end of the best of present day offerings are of such an inferior calibre that if one number stands out in an entire show one number seems to stand out something, and that in the face of J. Leubrie Hill not only writing a production, but supplying all the numbers with eight out of ten being unfulfecible they instantly bring back even today. The nearest approach to anything worth while came with "Shuffle Along" and the "Plantation Revenu" but let us not forget that the do-will happen had a great deal to do with Henry Creamer, Cecil Mack, Bill Vowell, Will Marton Cooke, J.

Whitney and Tutt, coming in almost on the tail end of that artistic period when the public demanded a story to be entertainingly carried to the end, arrived in New York one fall before the ductions and before the week was out had Harlem whistling and singing almost every song number of the show. An age without the violence once in music in the present day, when the unusual relish the numbers bring to the home consumption, for around the piano in the superior atmosphere of the home those songs voiced the sentiments of 'young swains and charming lassies, and father and used to sit listening while looking at their friends with amusement and their friends with approval. Even the chorus drill, with its funnel melodies, was something that brought joy to the soul, something of the presence confounded with the stuff of the present. But does not even try to follow, the lines come from the chorus being uninfeitable, many of the young ladies mouthing their contribution of the song, the heart have we believe is singing. The energy needed in the twisting, shaking, and marooching chorus of the present has left this end of our entertainment breakthrough one wonders how anybody can breathless one wonders the noise they make for singing. And even among chorus men when they do appear, we find them so lacking. We are not speaking of those men gathered together on rare occasions, standing alone, but the dancing and socializing boys. Why. We who could never sing a note anywhere near harmonious, could we supply the steps, would be among the gentry known as chorus men, who still runs through us when we realize they would have come to us for daring to entertain a job in the days of Williams and Walker. No. brother Maurice, you are very much mistaken if you think violent chorus, with its so evident stuff of the present day revue, can be a stunt, rather those things which they have to do to dare to stand behind an Alfa Walker. The times are entirely of art events on artistic presentations, one in the theatre, and it is natural that chorus would be in keeping with the in the old days even us fellows on the ROYALTY GREETS LITTLE AMERICAN DANCER Was Chorus Girl of Past Inferior to Present Chorines?

Little Esther, Child Dancer, Received by Spanish Rulers at Fete Given in Madrid MADRID, Spain.-Little Ethet, the ten-year-old colored child, who has been satishling by her marvelous mimicry and dancing, was the principal attraction at a fete given by the King of Portugal in honor of the President of Portugal. Queen Victoria and other members of the royal family were present. After the King and Queen received Little Ethet, together with her mother, Mrs Jones, and her manager, Sidney Garner, and compliment her. Five years ago little Ethet was dancing the Charleston on the streets of Paris, and she played the highest paid child artist in the world. Her salary is $750 a week. After leaving Berlin, where she was the hit of the Wintergarten for six weeks, she left for the Riviera, playing there. She then went to the Casino Believe at Blairtown, where she played with Sam Wooding and his band. While she appeared at a party given by the King, she was later highly complimented by him. Leaving for Spain she played with Harry Fleming and his band at the Valencia Theatre, where she scored on her debut. While in this city the school of children of the city with her three baskets of flowers more than six feet tall. Little Esther has been a great favorite with the children of the school, when she was leaving Stockholm, Sweden and children in the islands came to see her off almost filling her compartment with flowers. French, German, English and Spanish press have praised her praise of her. Jun de Maternity, co of the leading critics of Spain, in El Mercancio of Valencia, recently devoted almost two columns to an interview, which appeared on the front page, which appeared on the front light and the manner in which the youthful star was applauded by the public. newspapers were prone to attempt to intelligently discuss shows, for one and to be able to follow the story and a book reviewer give an opinion. And a book reviewer number of cases this is where a number of people are inspired, for inspiring things were being done. When one runs across men like Jimmy Lightfoot, Rex Rogers, Jessie Shipp, Bill Vodder, Rex Rogers, Jessie Shipp, and the rest of the boys; or women, Emerson and Abbie Mitchell, Sissistera Jones and the rest of them, we feel like apologizing. If perchance someone should rise up and call us the self-appointed and of those people of the past and the present, as there as it concerns the Negro, there is sentiment, but a certain joy in having lived in their day, and it is with undying pride we point to the fact that builders of the foundation upon which a heritage a heritage which we call a heritage day have sold for a mess of noteworthy age of four was revealed as a prodigy of dancing and mimetry. At that time she won a prize from one of the Rotterdam Clubs of Chicago in a class of artists under ten years of age. She then studied at the for the past six months has been triumphing over Europe. "Her first appearance on the Continent was at the Empire Theatre of Paris, where she became the great attraction of the French capital. And she was also a great supporter of the public has such idols like Mistinguett, Chevalier, Pilzer and others. In Stockholm she was so much acclaimed by the youthful element that when she was leaving parents and chil- dren she had a great demonstration that the police are necessary to permit the train to leave. "Later we walked out into the street while little Eloise told me her impressions of the great cities of Europe she has visited during her artistic engagement corner of the hotel we passed the open door of the kitchen and the fine aroma of truffled fish came to our nostrils; then the delightful little person said to the countries I know Spain has the relentless cooking in the meat and I am much wertled. "I had been talking with her for more than an hour, but it was at that moment I saw in Little Eloise the woman in the courthouse she is only ten, the woman in her in the house. She has more than fifty dresses and is frightened because she has gained a few pounds or a few grains of weight. To her manager, Mr Carageen he is a correct gentleman of color who looks after her with exquisite solicitude." El Tiempo says: "Little Eloise sings with much grace and talent, adding more and then some comic items that are worth of being flashed on the screen. "The public laughs, everybody laughs." The New York Amsterdam News and so does the small artist, to whom all surrender themselves unconditionally. Now she dances, her feet rhythmically marking the time of the number. She has finished and the theatre is ringing again with applause. "Little Esther has triumphed and with her the whole company has triumphed. She has finished her acting and she returns to pressing room. Again she is the child, and this tall white dog sleepy near its owner—wife of the leader of the orchestra. The dog does not bark. It turns its sleepy eyes to the small artist as if it were sleeping in sympathy. "When we left the pressing room thoughts of the great little artist remained with us, and we recalled the remark of the old porter who works behind the scenes: 'What a child, What a child!'" "Yes, little Esther is truly a great artist." She was recently filmed by a leading movietone news agency while on a visit to the Ministry of War, where she met Spanish dictator, Gen. Primo de Olivez. She is besieged with offers to appear on the stage and in the films. After a two months' tour of some of the leading cities of Spain, she will re-visit Berlin to all contracts made while the manager manages her, too, but it will be four years more before she will be able to comply with the English age limit. Opal Cooper Among Volunteers for Xmas Fund The popular Opal Cooper, who returned recently from Paris, France, where he has been living for many years since leaving this country, announced his intention last week to be among the volunteers to entertain for The Fund for needy families at Munich at Casino on Friday night, Dec. 20.

There were no particulars of how he met his death. His name in private life was Dorris King, and he was about 21 years of age. He was the son of King Rastus Brown, the noted dancer, who taught the boy and put him on the stage. As a performer he was an expert dancing chair jumper, unexcelled by any, hired most of the time by white vaudeville acts. AT THE LAFAYETTE Eddie Hunter is celebrating his return to America at the Lafayette Theatre this week. He and his company are appearing in what is undoubtedly one of the most successful shows when such able and popular performers as the Galas Bros. Rose Lunders (songbird of the Lexox Club), Carter & Daly, Cotton Club tap舞者; Dancer assist Hunter and some of the company which he brought back from Europe, the result cannot fall to be a splendid performance, contribution to the stage was reviewed in detail in this paper last week. Suffice it here to say that in this latest show, which he is presenting at the Lafayette Theatre this week under the more precise fractions, the once more precise himself has funniest comedians on the American stage and shows that he has profited greatly by his experience in Paris and London—experience which has made him better comedian and a greater producer. The photoplay program for the week includes the all-talking dramatic sensation, The Squall—the talking picture voice of the band capacity houses on Broadway for two solid years. Myrna Loy, star of "State Street Sadie" and other talking pieces, meets the role of a passionate Gyprean matte who makes men forget everything else the pleasure of possessing her! This week's program at the LaFayette comedy is a splendid combination of dance, dancing, music and melodrama. The Lafayette Next Week A new producer will make his bow to the theatre-going public of Harlem next week when Sam Davis presents his show, "The Lafayette Theatre." This production boasts of a cast of some aixy-odd performers. Judging by some of the names of the members of the cast, the comedy, "Sepla Vagabonds," is certain to be one of the most elaborate, gorgeous and hilariously-funny shows that has presented in Harlem this season. It seems Mr. Glyn will feature of this show will be the singers from Vinceoum's "Great Day."

The visitors drew first blood on a fast field goal by Chambers, but Williams formed a strong team, even the score with two free tosses.

We admit that we do smile within. There are times when we even laugh uproarfully to ourselves, and the only indication of the joy within us is a haggish look in the selflessness in being able to benefit out of benefit of personal company and enjoying a good show. However, no matter how graciously we try to appear modest and with becoming gestures that we are what you think, we are what you have reached this day when from the wholesome atmosphere of a loving home and God-fearing and highly respectable parents should come the voice of so with creature proclaiming an opinion with creature hope to merk in time to come.

ROMEO L. DOUGHERTY WHENEVER we meet a person of whom we have heard much we find that almost immediately we have formed some kind of an opinion of our own about the person. Not so long ago we had the opportunity of seeing the dramatic and sports editor of the Amsterdam News. Some one asked what we thought of Romeo I. Dougherty. . . . To us he seemed a rather serious type of a performer, a quiet, slow and studied talker. When he talks he says something that he can only be worth listening to that "the worst-ever" of many prominent people of today is conspicuous by its absence in Mr. Dougherty's case. The smile with this gentleman is very rare and yet . . . when it does "happen" it changes his appearance by a "whole lot". He is, too, a musician . . . a "bookworm," and, as with most artists, literary people generally, sculptors, painters and musicians . . . the smile and the song is within . . . it is in the heart. . . . We admire among some of things connected with this writer of Amsterdam News his perfect English . . . great while does he depart from things correct and indulges in a bit of slang (of which yours truly is so fond) . . . but very seldom does it break through into anything coming from Mr. Dougherty's pen. . . HAVE we, then, acquired the art of camouflage to such perfection that we could mislead a very intelligent, enlightened and well meaning young artist, young musician and ashes for the sins we have committed. Jack of a number of instruments and master of none, Miss Simon has been misled into believing that we could sing in the theatre with the little lady, but it will be the beet laft handed Prof. Eugene Mikel, our patient teacher, who hasn't heard of the theatre since that night when from the stage he Theatre we singled him out for a joke which, even though we admit it, was artfully planned as something to go into the good graces of a happy audience. Bandmaster Alton Adams of the only Negro band in the United States once said that your humble scribe is not the one that we discovered that one can be a poet out having to write poetry we accepted the grievous remark of the well-known musician and for a white entertained by J. A. Rogers to bank in the glory of the intellectuals of Greenwich Village. Fortunately, Mr. Rogers had gone to Europe, and since his recent return in the particular pain not to renew his offer. Ah, my dear Miss Simon, would that we be perfect control of the language said he would have the entire world speaking if he had his way, but we are beachcomber on the sands of literature, and we must remain a derelict upon the sea of journalism for lack of that very thing which you in your great kindness tried to teach you in the universe, which is the calling which we pursue with fear and trembling that day when we training will point with stapled training will pass through which we must eventually pass. We do not deny that we thrill to the opinion of so charming a representative so much inspiration for them as furnished so much inspiration for them as furnished so do, but the records for future generations must ring clear with truth. We must stamp by our look, that stamp being acquired by us, to sume a dignity which we have been assured goes with the title behind our eyes, the quiet, slow and studded manner that we love your faithful admirer when he Revue and Playlet Score at the Alhambra RENAISSANCE CASINO Seventh Avenue-138th Street Performance Broadway & 39th St. December 15, at 8:30 ATRICAL ASS'N, Inc.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1929 Classified Advertisements First Prize Winner in Choir Contest THE SCHOOL Woman Goes Free; Man to Face Jury --- James Martin, 22, 53 West 128th street, was held in $1,000 ball for the Grand Jury by Magistrate Goodman in Harlem Court last Wednesday when assigned on a charge of felonious assault made by Lawrence Wilson, 2158 Path avenue. Wilson's wife, Mary, 22, who was arrested with Martin and arraigned on a charge of acting in concert with Martin in the stabbing of her husband, was discharged. According to the story told by Detective Ross of the West 128th street station, Mrs. Wilson was separated from her husband and went to live in the apartment, where she acted in an effort to effect a reconciliation. An altercation ensued and he was saddled about the head, face and body. In the struggle that ensued Martin was stabbed in the back and both he and Wilson were removed to Harlem Hospital. Wilson when questioned accused both his wife, Mrs. Wilson as the time admitted that she had stabbed her husband because she feared he had come to attack her. She further said that Martin was accidentally stabbed when he tried to separate them. In court yesterday Wilson testified that Martin had inflicted the injuries upon him and that his wife had not with the attack. Martin testified that he had stabbed Mrs. Wilson when Wilson called. The latter sought to separate them. Martin said, and was accidentally stabbed. The magistrate then discharged Mrs. Wilson and held Martin for the Grand Jury. Views Purchasing Power As Medium for Advance Purchasing power is the medium through which the Negro consumer can achieve recognition and demand more employment for his patronage. Albon L. Holsey, secretary of the National Negro Business League, told an audience Sunday at the Young People's Conference at the West 135th street branch of the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Holsey declared that agitation and petition are of no avail in obtaining relief. While the consumers are facing their problems, said the speaker, the business men have a group of equally serious ones to face. Men and women must equip themselves for the purpose of creating business opportunities, to attract and hold customers, he said. Recognition from whites engaged in trade and commerce will come with the use of efficiency on the part of the Negro Mr. Holsey asserted. Miss Elmo Uggams, soprano, and the Nazarene Chorus of Nazarez Congregational Church offered the musical program at the meeting. Two Discharged by Court On Lack of Complainants Two Discharged by Court On Lack of Complainants The failure of their accusers to appear and press their complaints resulted in the discharge of two men arraigned Sunday on charges of assault before Magistrate Goodman in Washington Heights Court. Montgomery Curvin, 24. 2220 Fifth Avenue, was arrested by Policeman Beauregard after Lloyd Luus, 233 West 140th street, charmed that he assaulted her in her home during an altercation. She failed to appear and the charge against Curvin was dismissed. William Davis, 213 West 130th street, caused the arrest of Louis Amico, 23. 155 First avenue, who, he撞ed, struck him on the head with a beard during an altercation in the Davis home. Da Silva did not appear to press his complaint and Amico was discharged. Lad Goes to Grand Jury In Police Stabbing Row Claude Nelson, 16, 224 East 127th street, who is alleged to have stabbed Policeman Blackmore of the East 128th street station, was held in $1,000 ball for the Grand Jury when arraigned Thursday on a charge of felonious assault before Magistrate Goodman in Harlem Court. On an additional charge of possessing a knife with a blade longer than allowed by law, in violation of the Sullivan Law, Nelson was held in court in Special Sessions. The policeman and the Magistrate that he arrested made a statement for creating a disturbance at 127th street and Third avenue, when Nelson sought to take the prisoners from him. In attempting to arrest Nelson the latter cut him with a knife on the left wrist, the policeman charged. Shot by Cop, Man Held for Hearing Wesley Wilkens, 24, 51 West 130th street, who was shot by Detective Farrington of the Westchester avenue police station on Nov. 9, was brought from Bellevue Hospital, where he was conditioned as a result of his injuries and assigned a charge of felonious assaults before Goodman in Harlem Court on Friday. Detective Farrington, on Friday, was suspended from duty shortly after the shooting when found to be inmolested and unfit for duty by a police surgeon, was present in court. Wilkens was arraigned by Detective King of the West 123d street station. He pleaded not guilty to the charge and was held in $1,000 bail for a further hearing. Wilkens is charged by Farrington with attempting to attack him with a knife in a speakeasy at 385 Lenox avenue. The suspended detective is alleged to have informed his superior officers that he visited the speakeasy in search of a man wanted for homicide. He was questioning Wilkens when the latter drew a knife and attempted to attack him, he charges. Farrington alleges that he was obliged to shoot Wilkens in order to defend himself. Wilkens told an entirely different story following his arrest. He denied that he had a knife or attempted to attack Farrington. The latter, he said, was intoxicated and in a quarrelsome mood. The shooting, Wilkens insists was without provocation.

Robber Beaten by Holdup "Victims" John Doyle, 38, 10 West 138th street, was held without bail for a further hearing when arraigned Monday before Magistrate McQuade in Washington Height Court on charges of robbery and violating the Sullivan Law. Bert Moore was talking with three customers, a candy store at 38 West 138th street, a McQuade Doyle, it is charged, entered Doyle drew a revolver and ordered Moore and the three customers to throw up their hands. He is alleged to have directed the customers to walk behind the counter, where Moore was standing, threatened to kill them if they disobeyed. One of the customers was somewhat slow in obeying and as the robber made a move to strike him with the end of the pistol the customer turned and grabbed Doyle's hand. His actions and grabbed Doyle's hand and the two other customers, who jumped Doyle, and after disarming him they beat him with his own pistol until he was rendered unconscious. Policeman Seeman of the West 135th street station was then called in and he summoned an ambulance from Harlem Hospital. Dr. Green, who responded, revived Doyle and after several stitches had been taken in his scalp he was arrested. Moore told the police that three weeks ago he and two of his customers were held up by a lone armed robber who escaped with $80 he stole from them.

Koenig Insults Harlem Koenig Insults Harlem THE PRESTIGE of the Republican party in New York City is hard enough to keep up as it is, and Chairman Samuel Koenig is making it harder. Harlem is one of the few strongholds of the Republicans, yet Koenig has deliberately slapped Harlem's face. IN THE RECENT city campaign four Republicans were elected to the Board of Aldermen. Two of them were Negroes from Harlem, John C. Hawkins and Fred R. Moore, both of whom have been Aldermen before. The other two, white men, were elected for the first time. This situation created much attention, for, according to the time-honored rule of seniority, it meant that a Negro would be the minority leader in the legislative department of the New York City government. There was considerable speculation as to which of the colored men, Hawkins or Moore, would be chosen. As Moore had at times been rebellious and Hawkins had always been a regular party man, Hawkins seemed to have the better chance. KOENIG, the party boss, chose neither. Breaking the rule of seniority, he ignored both Hawkins and Moore, and gave the minority leadership to the untried Baldwin. There is nothing against Baldwin, who may make a capable Alderman; but there is a great deal against Koenig for his insult to a race that loyally supported him in the city campaign. As long as Messrs. Moore and Hawkins remain on the Aldermanic Board they should continue to hold out for a right that clearly belongs to them. Cossacks in Haiti IKE BANQUO'S GHOST, the Haitian question will not down. Though buried under volumes of official reports of American benefits to Haiti—order established, roads built, public works undertaken, great loans secured from Wall Street, and other deodorizers—the rottenness of the American occupation of Haiti still sends forth its stench. Newspaper reports may try to make it appear that the recent bloody riot was caused by the natives' resentment at the discharge of a few dishonest Haitian clerks, but the newspapers and everyone else know that there is much more behind it. WHEN THE UNITED STATES, under Woodrow Wilson, intervened in Haiti's affairs in 1915, it was with the express intention of establishing law and order and of fitting the Haitians for self-government. Fourteen years have passed, and where is the law and order? Have the marines conducted themselves like policemen, or like a Southern mob? Every Haitian who dares speak openly has cursed the marines for their bloody brutality. Sent to teach law and order, they have behaved like lynchers. They have insulted the populace with epithets and shot them down like dogs when they resented them. Like drunkards on a spree they have riddled Haiti's proudest monuments with bullets. Like homicidal maniacs they have plunged their automobiles at high speed into crowds of women and children, reckless of whom they killed. Is this the way to teach a people law and order? THE OTHER OSTENSIBLE OBJECT of the American occupation was to fit the Haitians for self-government. But how can people learn self-government without practicing it? Under the American rule they are not permitted to practice it. The present President of Haiti sits in his palace, not by virtue of the vote of the people, but by the arbitrary appointment of the Council of State, which is dominated by Americans. In spite of the constitution requiring popular election, the people had nothing to do with it. American apologists excuse this by saying that 98 per cent of the Haitians are illiterate; but in nearby Porto Rico illiterate people are allowed to vote. And how do the Americans account for the fact that even the educated natives of Haiti are not permitted to vote? Respect for a constitution is the essence of self-government, and that respect cannot be taught by trampling a constitution. SUCH THINGS cannot be glossed over by the building of roads and bridges. The slaveholders of America, too, built roads and bridges, but that did not justify slavery. The ancient Egyptian kings built colossal pyramids with slave labor; but were these tre Corruption in the Pulpit mendous piles worth the suffering of the thousands who raised them? And what satisfaction can an intelligent Haitian take in a Wall Street loan to his country if he is forbidden to vote and is compelled, under pain of instant death, to endure the insults of every foul-mouthed marine? Of what value is the erection of imposing public works, when free speech, the ideal of America, is stamped out, when journals are suppressed and their editors thrown into jail upon the least criticism of American rule? President Hoover's intention of appointing a commission to make a real investigation in Haiti is encouraging. He is the first President to admit that there is something wrong with the American intervention. But that commission will accomplish nothing if the wrong men are chosen, men who have the Cossack spirit of the marines. Even if good men are chosen nothing will be done unless they choose the right way. But they will effect a great improvement if they will listen to the Haitian side of the trouble as well as to the American; if they will hear men like Dantes Bellegarde, if they will let the editors talk instead of clapping them into jail—above all, if they will recognize the right of the Haitians to a voice in their own government. UNLESS such an attitude prevails the present mess will continue to grow steadily worse: The moral prestige of the United States will suffer, only in Haiti but throughout the world. With blood on its own hands this country cannot consistently tell Soviet Russia to wash the blood off its hands, and Russia will continue to thumb its nose. DR. A. CLAYTON POWELL, of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, has assumed the role of a prophet of righteousness. In a recent sermon he cried out and sparred not against corruption in the Negro pulpit. In one instance, at least, he pointed the accusing finger at the culprit, proclaiming with Davidian directness: "Thou art the man." We have heard no such seething denunciation from high authority since Bishop Palne died. Booker T. Washington, at one time, took a shy at the unworthiness of the Negro pulpit, but the practical exigencies of his material task quickly caused desistance. The ordinary layman is amazed at the complacency with which ministers who will contemplate the fleshy sins of brother clergymen of notorious evil repulte. We must be careful not to indulge in wholesale condemnation. A majority of the Negro ministers doubtlessly live up to the moral requirements of their calling; but a majority is not enough. A much smaller percentage of any profession will suffice to give the whole an evil reputation. We have a right to require well-nigh 100 per I RECEIVE many questions from persons who say that they are sick of conditions in America and are planning to go to Europe to settle. While over there, I also met not a few who had come over for this purpose and at least two who had brought their families. I have stressed frequently the great folly of this, but since the question keeps recurring there seems nothing else to do but to repeat. First and foremost there is the question of language for all countries, except England. How can one expect to make his way to those tongue he does not know? How can one expect to find few, if any, of those who have gone and those who are itching to go know any other language except their own. Imagine a Frenchman or a German who does not know a word of English, coming into a group of Americans and trying to do business. One is reduced to making signs, and at best feels much embarrassed. But suppose one does speak the language, when he arrives on the other side what does he find? He finds himself in a new environment to which he must adapt himself. He must take new roots again. And this is very difficult for the American, colored or white. The American is usually the first one to kick, for living conditions are lower in the United States, with fewer schools. With the dollar, one had better say the American rate of wages, one will find things generally cheaper, but almost uniformly the quality is cheaper, too. Of course, if one is rich one can, always create competition, Europe a par with that of America. But we are speaking of those who must make a living. Let us say that one has adapted himself to the European mode of :Bu KELLY MILLER cent probity on the part of those who engage to lead us in the paths of truth and righteousness. The haste and rush with which - Kelly Miller - the ranks of the Negro ministry had to be recruited entailed many imperfections. You cannot take 40,000 men from the peasant and "America Is Best" :Bu J. A. ROGERS living. He goes out in search of work and what does he find? That "there are a thousand dogs for every bone," with himself last in the struggle; that if by some chance he was ever to get the bone, he would find, as an American, that it isn't worth the picking. Wages in European countries are from a half to one-fourth of what they are in America. And the cost of living is very high for the European. In some cases he must pay the same prices as a wage earner, although, as was said, essentials like housing are cheaper (except in England where they are about the same as in America). In fact, wages are so low in most European countries that they seem incredible. A French chauffeur in a family gets something like six wives, week, room and board in America. The family are getting forty, and out of that sum he can save proportionately much higher than the French one. A bank clerk in Paris who gets $15 a week is being well paid, for the average wage is about $8. A very good stenographer and typist is being well paid in Greek, for a foreman in a mechanical plant gets about $15. Europe today is suffering from poor economic conditions, due chiefly to the last war and overpopulation. It is staggering under the latest and the American who goes there to work must share in the load. Is it any wonder that so many Europeans cast a longing eye to the American Canaan? Let down the bars and they would be here in the United States, but countries are so filled that it will be at least five years before the names of some individuals will be reached. In 1925 I met a young Belgian who had his name on the books years later I met him again and his name had not yet been reached. I hope I have made clear the absolute inadvisibility of going to Europe in search of work. I had purposely refrained from saying I would be a foreigner must, hold a permit servile pursuits of life and thrust them into the high places of moral guidance and authority without bringing forward much of the character of their previous environment. No miracle of grace was ever witnessed from men from grossness to purity in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. Much of this grossness we had to overlook and wink at in the generation gone by. But that time has passed. The educational and moral life of the race has rapidly sponding progress in the life and conduct of our moral and spiritual leaders. The Negro church now stands at the parting of the ways. It has been the Negro's greatest asset. It must not be allowed to become his greatest, liability. Unless a sharp and sudden change is effected in the tendency of certain of our leading ecclesiastical organizations, they will be utterly repudiated by the intelligent and self-respecting young manhood and womanhood of the Negro, right ought to refuse to follow incompetency and corruption in the pulpit. Only the older half of the generation, now rapidly diminishing, will adhere to the fortunes of such an unrighteous regime; the younger and more intelligent half will be more successful. The leader must be at least as good, and ought to be better than the Is Best" from the Minister of Labor in order to get a job. In France, where there is a minimum of unemployment, he gets the job first, and then applies for the permit. The employer must then show that the ```markdown ``` - J. A. Rogers - foreigner is doing work that a Frenchman cannot ordinarily do. Foreigners doing business are compelled to employ a certain high percentage of natives. And anyone who contemplates going to Europe in search of work say so when he applies to the consulate of the particular country for a visa, and he simply would not get it. Recently an American girl, clever at stenography, told the English immigrant, Alice as Southampton that she had been working her way, and she was promptly refused permission to land. In France there is considerably more freedom. Actors, singers and others, as I understand, may land and then get permission to work, and they can get a labor permit before arriving even if they intend giving recitals. Europe, so far as the Negro is concerned, is only for those who have something unusual to offer like Roland Hayes, Paul Robeson, and many others. Ethel Waters and a few others. All the other fields are overcrowded. Howard Progress Shown in Report 2,671 Students From 38 States and 15 Foreign Countries The total enrollment of Howard University during the year 1928-29, says the annual report of that institution out today, was 2,671 students from thirty-eight States and fifteen foreign countries. They are distributed as follows: College of Liberal Arts, 934; College of Education, 836; College of Applied Science, 91; School of Music, 80; School of Religion, 282; School of Medicine, 360; School of Law., 88. At the commencement in June 277 men and women received degrees in nine schools and colleges, as follows: College of Liberal Arts, 73; College of Education, 104; Applied Science, 6; School of Music, 1; School of Religion, 3; College of Medicine, 42; College of Dentistry, 19; College of Pharmacy, 12; School of SPECIAL ARTICLES best of those he engages to lead. The college bred Negro turns away from the ministry with disgust, induced largely by the imperfections of too many of the fathers in Israel who dominate the situation, and to form the highest challenge to the intelligence, the heroes and the noble ambition of the youth who are now passing through our colleges. But the example of graft, greed, corruption, too often held up before them, offers an uninviting prospect. The priest of God takes on the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. But to witness our high ecclesiastical digitaries reveling in wealth wrested from God's poor, domineering in the exercise of irresponsible power and be labelled with charges of all forms of impurity, and see how lightly too they are treated by their sacreded vows. The church cannot be built up in this wise. Too often the people are saddled with a heavy burden of debt which they cannot liquidate for a generation in order to gratify the conceit of a wealthy leader. The layman are already in a state of revolt. The backs of the poor improwisherised membership are about to break under the staggering load of church debt. Hats off to Dr. Powell. The concession of the ministry—the silent majority—should uphold his hand. and the competition is keen, with the result that the European in almost every field is usually a more finished workman than the American. More time is taken and generally better results achieved. As a field of employment, Europe is only for the musician or the enamelist, of that work are many of these but work while others barely exist. Europe is for the tourist and those engaged in intellectual and artistic work. Along these lines it cannot be too highly recommended. There is a charm, a repose, a variety of life there that makes America seem flat and dull in comparison. Most Americans who go to Europe want to go back and work in America, but many there who would not think of returning to America to live. And we are not speaking of Negroes. As to the latter, it will have an added charm for them if they have never been out of America. They will find themselves absolutely free for the first time. But if one goes there to make his living without money to keep him there, he will find that it is one thing to have something to do with it to have something with it. This experience, by the way, is a most valuable one, for the Negro American, cooped up as he is, really never gets an opportunity to realize the power of money. As I have so often said before America is the best place I know for the Negro. I fancy that there are millions of Europeans who would be willing to change places with him, disabilities and all. This is no pleasant admission to make; so much because it gives comfort to processors because, as a group, we are too smugly content and synthetic. If the destiny that brought the Negro to America was bizarre, it is none the less powerful and he cannot escape now. His tastes in living, dress, and even in luxuries, belong to Negro workers who are content in Europe are those who come from North Africa or from lands of a lower economic level than Europe. Hence, the Negro American who intends migrating there or to Africa or almost any other country must make up his mind to sacrifice much. No freedom was ever obtained without sacrifices and it seems to me that the fittest place to make the sacrifices are here, where one is reasonably sure of getting a return and with compound interest. Law. 27. Five students received the graduate degree of master of arts. The most notable development in the professional schools of the University was the graduation of a full-time day School of Law with twenty students registered in the first year class. The president of the school also reported the receipt of $905,000 from private philanthropy, in addition to appropriations made available by the Federal Government, in varying amounts for graduate work and research, and for increases in the salaries of teachers, for scholarships for college teachers in medicine, for scholarships, for teachers in the natural sciences, for books for the natural sciences library and for the dental library, for graduate scholarships, and for other purposes. Among the most notable of these sums was a gift of $80,000 from the Julius Rosenwald Fund for the development of graduate work in research in the Department of Zoology under the leadership of Dr. E. J. Just, and a gift of $80,000 from the General Education Board for raising the salary scale for teachers in the undergraduate colleges. Of this amount, $20,715 was reported to be $3,931,058.51. Of this amount, $20,715 was the unexpended balance of appropriations from the United States Congress Keeping Fit A Health Column dedicated to the mem- ory of Dr. R Elliott Rawilins (1882-1928) By Lucien M. Brown, M.D. NEURITIS is the term used for any inflammation of a nerve or its sheath. The condition is more prevalent at this season of the year when there is a great deal of dampness and cold, and sudden changes of temperature. Neuritis may be due to exposure to cold, injury to the nerve, prolonged pressure as from a tumor, focus of infection as from the teeth and tonsils, the spread of contagious inflammation and as a complication in gout, diabetes, syphilis and poisoning by lead or arsenic. The symptoms of the disease will vary with the special nerve infected. The nerves of the head are often involved as a result of the frequency with which infection is found not only in the teeth, gums and tonsils, but along the nasal passages and the air spaces in the head called sinuses. The nerves that cause an attack of inflammation during an attack of a general cold or la gripe, and the mistake often made is to call this condition pleurisy. course of the nerve, beginning in the upper part of the leg and extending to the calf or even the sole of the foot, aggravated on walking or on sudden movement. In several cases there may be loss of pain sensation on the outer side of the leg and weakening of the muscles. The patient will usually walk on the toes, with the knee bent to avoid stretching the nerve. The successful treatment of sedation is strange to say, one of the most difficult. Neuritis of the nerves in between the ribs occurs much more frequently than does pleurisy and can be reasonably well diagnosed on careful examination. Inasmuch as inflammation of any of the nerves near the surface of the body can and does occur, the most serious form of this disease is a neuritis of the sciatic nerve, which runs behind both legs. Scolatica, the name used for this condition, is usually on one side, and is characterized by severe pain along the Dental Talks By ROY C. PROCTOR, D. D. S. BEFORE leaving the subject of "Accidents in Dentistry," there is another matter that should be coupled with it. This matter has to do with all sorts of unhappy results that may arise from mechanical or technical procedures. Two of the most common ones are here discussed. Patients are wearing full dentures for the first time, and are having difficulty with them, will sight a case of a friend who said that he had no trouble with his teeth since the day they were fitted. Such a condition actually existing is most unusual, to say the least. Many persons who are wearing dentures that appear to be comfortable are oftimes causing them great inconveniences. To mention their discomfort, even to their friends, would be embarrassing them, so they give the impression that they are not comfortable. However, with persistence on the part of dentist and patient the maximum of satisfaction can only be attained. Still further, the shape of the mouth plays a large part in Know New York State New York leads all other states in industrial output, with 36,650 factories and products worth nine and one-tenth of all industries. The employers employ more than a million workers, and pay in wages more than a billion and a half dollars yearly. The first regular street car service in the city began in 1832, when horsecars began to run between City Hall and Fourteenth Street. This year spending ninety-eight million dollars for public education, and it is expected that in 1930 the appropriation will increase. The State Health Department of New York has established anti-venom stations at Albany, Glens Falls, Binghamton, Havenstraw and New York emergency service in case of snake bites. New York State in 1932 had the second smallest percentage of divorces the country, with one to each twenty percent. Of these, 1,897 are new installers and 1,684 are subscribers moving to new locations.

In severe cases there may be loss of pain on the knee, on the upper side of the leg and weakening of the muscles. The patient will usually on the toes, with the knee bent to avoid stretching the nerve. ```markdown ``` The successful treatment of sedatica is, strange to say, one of the most difficult to attain. It is both trying to physician and patient, so that, aside from the general administration of pain-relieving drugs and all forms of heat and electricity, radical measures are sometimes necessary, such as cutting down on the nerve and stretching it, or the injection of certain solutions of the root of the nerve. Neuritis is a disease which makes it imperative to see that all possible sources of infection in the body be removed when they are discovered. retention and masticating properties of the dentures. The inside of the mouth is as variable in shape as the face, and there are no two faces just all alike. There are some mouths, no matter how well the dentures are made, which never give complete satisfaction. There are the other hand, in others, dentures that are imminent, feet from every point of view give surprising satisfaction. Why? The shape of the mouth. So, after all, it is an individual equation and no undue blame should be attached to your dentist. To some patients even the denture the dental drill is a "nightmare" for a piece compared with it; and others the drill is not even annoying. When two such individuals get together and discuss dentistry, it is very likely that the dentist treating the former patient will be unjustly discredited. The patient might say, "He is a good dentist, but he doesn't and can't and can't stand it." The most sensitive patient will say, "Come to my dentist, he doesn't hurt a bit." THE POETS CORNER Poems submitted for publication in The Poets Corner will be a pleasure to see accompanied with salute dressed and stamped envelope If War Must Come IF war must come with devastating hate And leave the minds of men insatiate; If death and disease take their heavy toll. Where blinded by our hate war we extol, We must not unprepared enter the fray When we have sought all means the slaughter stay. If war must come! If war must come again the world to blight And halter progress as day haltern night. And desolation follow in its wake And foolishly then we place all at stake. Our wives and daughters and our virtue, too. We canst but then to our country be true. If war must come! If war must come let it not be our fault To withhold any effort that would halt The enervating influence it must bring. Though the forces of hell its praises sing. If fight we must, let right, peace we our aim. And justice to our mightiest foe acclaim, If war must come! If war must come in this silightened day. Its frightful cost will be too much to pay. To baser animals, not man to man, And on the brotherhood of man they'll stand. If war must come! If war must come, great God, relay the thought. To those contemplating the on- slaught. That joy and peace may take the place of war And sanity make men conflict abhor. Applaise the mind, diffuse to all good-will. And to the haughty soul bid, "peace, be still." If war must come!
