by William Slade, 17 West 136th street, who has five other children.
The father told the bench that he was willing to pay a reasonable sum for Raymond's care. He asserted that Mrs. Johnson insisted upon holding him until his parent produced $200.
Magistrate Dodge stated he had no jurisdiction in the matter and advised Slade to either take the matter up with the Children's Society or to commence an action in the Supreme Court for the custody of his child.
Oscar Marks, white, 271 West 125th street, counsel for Mrs. Johnson, informed the magistrate that Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Slade had been friends for many years and that it was her request upon her death bed that the child be given to Mrs. Johnson, who would provide and look after him.
The child, the lawyer said, has become attached to Mrs. Johnson and had stated that he would rather remain with her than go home with his father.
The attorney told the magistrate that Slade was unable to properly provide for his children, and that he would request the Children's Society to investigate the home conditions of the Slader.

Tries to Take Gold From Girl's Teeth
TARBORO, N. C., Jan. 13 (ANP)-George Jenkins and Olivia Morgan were sweethearts and during these days he paid for some dental work - gold fillings- which was termed necessary. A few days ago the two lovers came to the parting of ways and George decided that he wanted his gold fillings back. To secure the gold he knocked his former sweetheart down and tried to extract the gold by force. The dentist, however, had done a good job and George was folled. Not only was he folled but he was halled before the court. The judge after hearing the unusual case acted as a peacemaker, and once more George and Olivia are sweethearts.
Walker Gold Medal Awarded To T. G. Nutter of W. Va.
T. G. Nutter of Charleston, W. Va., has been chosen to receive the Mme. C. J. Walker Gold Medal for 1929. The medal, which is given each year by the Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company, goes to the individual judged to have done most conspicuous service to Negroes in America through the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The medal goes to Mr. Nutter on the ground of two important legal victories he won during the past year. The first of them prevented exclusion of colored people in West Virginia public libraries. The second nullified covenants and contracts of white property owners in which they sought to restrict the sale of real estate by barring colored people.
Mrs. Daisy E. Lampkin of Pittsburgh, who enrolled 2,000 members in the N. A. A. C. P. branch there, and Mrs. Romeo L. Dougherty of Jamaica, L. I., who led that small community in a baby contest that brought in almost $600, received honorable mention.
Avers Tenants Aid Harlem Violations
Deegan Tells Community Council Meeting of Housing Evils
The failure of Harlem tenants to report violations of rent laws was listed as one of the chief difficulties to securing better housing conditions by Major William F. Deegan, white, Tenement House Commissioner, in addressing the North Harlem Community Council at a mass meeting Sunday morning at the St. James Presbyterian Church, 141st street and St. Nicholas avenue.
Major Deegan said that there were more than the usual number of tenement inspectors in Harlem, but that they found it difficult to secure the co-operation of the tenants. George Gore, white, secretary of the State Housing Board, also a speaker, said that Harlem was threatened with a housing emergency, because the other sections of the city were not usually opened to Negroes.
A resolution was passed at the meeting asking the State Legislature to enact a law which will provide for a stay of six months in rent raises until a study of tenant conditions can be made.
The Rev. William Lloyd Imes, pastor of St. James, made a short address in which he told the responsibility of the church in the housing situation. Other speakers included Miss Helen Henneng of the State Housing Committee, and Assemblymen Francis E. Rivers and Lamar Perkins.
Attacked by Cat, Woman Gets Medical Treatment
An emaculated black cat attacked Mrs. Arizona Hogan, 23, a laundryworker, in the kitchen of her home, 598 West 177th street, Sunday, biting and scratching her on both hands. Mrs. Hogan's husband, Willis, is employed as elevator operator in the house. They live in the basement. Mrs. Hogan was preparing a chicken dinner for her husband. The cat had strayed into the apartment and as Mrs. Hogan was preparing the chicken the cat leaped upon her, biting on the right hand and scratching her on the left hand. The screams of Mrs. Hogan brought her husband to her aid. As he entered the kitchen the cat ran out and disappeared. Dr. Angelo, who was called from Columbus Hospital, caucerized Mrs. Hogan's wounds and she remained at home.

With a warrant for her arrest in the hands of Patrolman Carter of the Sixth division, Mme. Stephanie St. Clair, 409 Edgecombe avenue, appeared voluntarily Monday in Heights Court before Magistrate Smith and was held in $1,000 bail for a hearing next Monday.
Mme. St. Clair, who is charged with possession of policy slips, was scheduled to appear Jan. 6, and answer the complaint. Her attorney, Frank Stanton, white, came to the bench and produced a doctor's certificate stating that the defendant was ill at her home.
Magistrate Douras granted an adjournment and continued bail of $500. When the attorney appeared again with another certificate Magistrate Silberman, who was sitting then, declared the ball forfeit and ordered a warrant issued for her her arrest.
The defendant, who has been cruised several months against Harlem
police and their methods of dealing with citizens, was apparently in ill health when she was arraigned Monday. A nurse accompanied her.
Patrolman Carter had not served the warrant and did not know that she was to be given a hearing, according to court advises. Mme. St. Clair was arrested Dec. 30 by Officer Roberts of Inspector McNeill's staff.
He took her into custody in a hallway at 117 West 141st street, according to the complaint. Mme. St. Clair, whose maid was sentenced to a reformatory term last year when her apartment was raided, has contended that she was arrested because of her tirades against the police.

Twenty - first's Delegate Asks Repeal of Test for Voters
Perkins Introduces State Rent Law; Rivers Would Force Repairs by Bill
ALBANY, Jan. 14—Two bills, one to provide for the erection of a monument in honor of the former Fifteenth Regiment of Harlem, and another which would force landlords to make repairs before being paid their rentals, were introduced into the Legislature here yesterday.
The monument bill was referred to the ways and means committee while the other was sent to the judiciary committee.
Lamar Perkins, Assemblyman of the Twenty-first district, who succeeds John W. Remer, white, offered a proposal to re-enact the old Emergency Rent Law. The bill would extend protection to tenants paying $15 and less per room a month for one year.
The measure, which will probably be considerably amended before it is put to a vote, would allow tenants to have redress in the courts when their rents are raised. Upon refusal to pay an increase the renters would be hailed to a municipal court by a dispossess action. The landlord would then be compelled to prove that the demand for more rent was justifiable.
The law is deemed necessary by thousands in New York following the action of the courts in declaring the municipal ordinance void. Mr. Perkins asserted yesterday that many people in his district in Harlem are facing demands for boosts of 25 to 100 per cent.
Another bill introduced by Mr. Perkins would repeal the section of the election law, which provides for a literary test for new voters. The Assemblyman is of the opinion that the provision in the present law does more harm than good because it gives the election inspectors arbitrary power in deciding who shall vote.
The young legislator further believes that practically all citizens are intelligent enough to exercise the franchise.
The third bill offered by Mr. Perkins seeks to have Armistice Day made a legal holiday.

State Rent Law;

Monument to Fifteenth
Would Be Erected in
Harlem
ALBANY, Jan. 14.—The old Emergency Rent Law, which passed from the statute books last year and was re-enacted in part by the New York City Municipal Assembly only to meet defeat in the first test case, was reintroduced into the House of Assembly yesterday.
The attempt to secure state recognition of the old Fifteenth Regiment for its part in the World War was revived by Assemblyman Francis E. Rivers. Identical in many respects to a bill introduced by his Republican predecessors, the proposal would have a temporary state commission of three persons appointed by the Governor.
The commission would be charged with the construction of a monument in New York City in commemoration of the outfit, which is now known as the 369th.
The bill seeks $25,000 from the state for carrying out the provisions of the act. However, it would allow the commission to accept contributions from the public. No part of the state requisition would be made available until title has been acquired to a site for the state. Several attempts have been made to have a similar bill passed, and some money has been raised by citizens for the purchase of land.
Rent Legislation.
Mr. Rivers' second bill guarantees the right of a tenant to refuse to pay his rent while a violation placed on a house by the tenement department exists. The tenant deposits his rent with the court, under the terms of the proposed law, and continues to do so while the violation lasts. In no case would he be forced to deposit more than the original sum agreed upon, and the landlord would not be allowed to obtain his money until he removed the violations.

District Grand Jury Indicts Medical Students
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 13. Two former Howard University medical students were charged with grand larceny in connection with the alleged theft of a microscope from the Medical School in an indictment returned by the Grand Jury last Monday. The former students are Kermit M. Trigg, 1605 Fifthteen street, Northwest, and Thomas Theodore Brown of Jersey City, N. J. Dr. Numa P. G. Adams, dean of the Medical School, and Albert V. Anderson, a medical student, were witnesses before the Grand Jury, Brown and Trigg were alleged to have stolen the microscope and sold it to Anderson.
The Grand Jury also indicted Floyd C. Payne, 249 Florida avenue, Northwest, on a charge of embezzlement Payne was the financial secretary of Morning Star Lodge No. 40 of the Improved, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World. The indictment charges that he embezzled the sum of $2,040.24 of the lodge's funds. An audit of the lodge's books is said to have revealed the alleged shortage.
Awarded $35,000 For Loss of Leg
Laborer
The left leg of Henry Davis, 45, a laborer, was valued at $35,000 by a jury sitting last Wednesday in White Plains before Justice Graham Witschief in Supreme Court. The award is said to be the largest for a limb rendered in an accident case in Westchester County.
Davis, who lives at Manhattan park, White Plains, was on his way to work at 7:15 a. m. July 20, 1928. Riding his motorcycle south on North Broadway, near the city line, he was struck by an auto truck owned by Samuel Marino, white, contractor, also of White Plains. The Marino truck, proceeding north and evidently in a hurry, swung around two other vehicles, emerged on the wrong side of the road and struck Davis.
As a result of the accident he sustained multiple comminuted fractures of the left leg, which necessitated amputation below the knee. Doctors in the White Plains Hospital performed the operation.
Owing to the fact that Davis and his family were in destitute circumstances as a result of his injury, his attorney, Thomas J. O'Neill, white, of White Plains and 256 Broadway, New York, obtained a preference for the trial of the case.
Notwithstanding that the defense virtually admitted their liability the trial took two days. They fought for a small verdict.
An interesting feature of the case was the fact that it was the first one tried by Justice Witschief on the Supreme Court bench. He was elected Inst November.

16-Year-Old Girl In Elevator Mishap
Vera Shelton Suffers From Serious Injuries in Jersey Hospital
Miss Vera Shelton, 203 Union street, is in the Jersey City Hospital not expected to live as the result of being crushed by an elevator at 28 Duncan avenue on Friday night, about 7 o'clock.
Miss Shelton was employed as elevator operator at the Knickerbocker apartments at the Duncan avenue address. Friday evening she had carried two passengers to the fifth floor and had just started the car when Eleanor Smith, ten-year-old daughter of the superintendent, heard her scream.
The child's screaming brought a tenant, Harry Peterson, and John E. Smith, superintendent, to the imprisoned girl's rescue. The men opened the door and the girl was taken to the City Hospital, where she was treated for internal injuries.
On Monday morning the hospital authorities reported her in very poor condition and not expected to live. She was unable to give a coherent account of the accident.
Miss Shelton, sixteen, is a student at Egan's Business School, Journal Square.

One of the men, Alfred Mayers, 21, 41 West 127th street, was captured early last Wednesday morning after he had engaged in a pistol duel with Policeman Edward McLaughlin of the West 123d street station. The second man, Henry Brown, 22, 208 West 129th street, was arrested Thursday night in his home by Detectives Kammeter and Graham of the West 123d street station. A third man, who the police say also participated in the robberies, is still being sought. Brown and Meyers were arraigned on complaint of Anthony Desmond white, a taxicab chauffeur of 2449 Second avenue. He testified in court that the three men hallied his cab at 125th street and Lenox avenue, and asked to be driven to 222 West 121st street, where they alighted. Meyers, he said, then pointed a pistol at him and ordered him into the hallway, where he was robbed of 810.

Theodore Lewis, 22 West 130th street
The men, all of whom are colored, were sent to the "honor" road camp, where the Government paid for their board, to relieve congestion in the Atlanta prison. The department said that some dissatisfaction over the contract had arisen, and through removal of prisoners to the military barracks at Leavenworth, Kan., room had been provided to accommodate the Federal prisoners in Atlanta. The Government's action followed long and vigorous protests by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other bodies. When the plan first became known, the N. A. A. C. P., on Oct. 31, 1929, wrote to Attorney General William DeWitt Mitchell, protesting against what it termed a "discriminatory practice" in singling out colored convicts and condemning the system of convict leasing or boarding. The association also wrote to Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas, a member of its board, enlisting his interest.
---
During a long ensuing correspondence with Sanford Bates, U. S. Superintendent of Prisons, in the course of which a personal conference took place in Washington between him and Messrs. Arthur B. Splingam, Walter White and Judge James A. Cobb, the N. A. A. C. P. maintained its position that convict boarding, despite assurances that they would be well treated, was discriminatory and the practice a dangerous and undesirable one.
The project was exposed in the New York World on December 14, and it was denounced in Congress by Senators Wagner and Borah and Representative La Guardia of New York. On December 14 the N. A. A. C. pired Superintendent Bates restating its objections to the convict boarding plan, and on December 27 the N. A. A. C. P. telegraphed Senators Wagner, Hawes, Vandenburgh and Norris, objecting to a bill which would have reorganized Federal prison administration on the ground that it would "perpetuate a system by which colored prisoners will be virtually leased out to Southern communities."

and drove away. Desmonti followed on foot, picking up Policeman McLaughlin, to whom he reported the holdup. Upon seeing the policeman the tri leaped from the taxicab at 122d street and Seventh avenue. Meyers turned and fired a shot at McLaughlin. Both engaged in a pistol duel.
When he found his pistol empty, Meyers, it is charged, flung the weapon into the taxicab from which he and his companions had alighted, and darted into the hallway of a tenement house. He was later found hiding in an apartment and arrested. In his possession the policeman alleges he found the $10 stolen from Desmonti. Meyers was also charged with violating the Sullivan law and on this charge was held without bail for trial in Special Sessions.
Several taxicab chauffeurs who were recently held up and robbed were present in court Friday and identified Brown and Meyers as two of three men who robbed them.

Roundly scoring the Americ
passive attitude in organizing M
rector of the industrial depa
League, called upon William Gr
in an open letter yesterday to w
listing black workers and fighti
ing unions.
In setting forth his declaration that settlement of the racial problem in industry is the main task, Mr. Hill asserts:
"There can be no peace in the hearts of white workers if black workers take their jobs when they are on strike; and there can be no peace in the hearts of black workers when they are denied not only the privilege to organize but also the right to labor because white workers object. When we have settled our labor differences between the races we shall have added materially to the spirit of interracial good-will that is moving forward in other circles."
With Negro workers prevailing in large numbers in the South, the federation will need to assure them that their lot will be made no "harder than it now is." Mr. Hill continues. He asks the plan of the organization for enlisting Negroes. "If your new promise to help contemplates the initiative of the federation, will you organize federal locals of Negro plumbers, of machinists, railway mail clerks and others similarly excluded," the industrial secretary questions.
"That the federation stands ready to help the Negro raise his standards is a commitment the Urban League wants to see fulfilled. We are afraid, however, judging from past observations and experiences, that the word 'stands' is to be taken literally; for we have seen the federation stand still, exerting not a single muscle to welcome Negroes in the folds of organized labor, while blaming them for not accepting the restrictions grudgingly offered. In standing ready to help it is to be understood that you will now work for the removal of constitutional and ritualistic clauses governing the conduct of labor bodies that limit membership to white workers?
"We are willing to accept your implied good faith, but please permit us to point out that this is not the first time we have read similar declarations. We do not question the ideals toward which the organization is headed, but we cannot admire the practice followed in the pursuit of those ideals.
"For forty years Negro workers have heard the public pronouncements of the American Federation of Labor in favor of absolute equality for all workers, regardless of race, color or creed. We have seen resolution upon resolution adopted by your body in convention assembled. While we know that the American Federation of Labor has no power to force any national or international union to accept its mandates, we have seen such mandates as pertained to Negro workers deliberately flouted by national and international unions, and these bodies go uncensured.
"We saw no change in the status of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks because it refused to change its constitution so as to admit Negro workers, but we did see the organization summarily dismissed because of a jurisdictional dispute with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. We have seen national bodies admitted to the federation within the last ten years that have encouched in their laws circumscriptions of Negro workers.
Branded as Scabs.
"All the while Negro workers have been branded as scabs. They were wanted in the union only after they had entered industry as strike-breakers. Denied opportunity to work under normal conditions, they have been conscious of opposition from white workers and have resorted to strike-breaking as much to retaliate as to find employment.
"And even when they have joined unions they have been refused work because fellow white unionists would not work with them. Thus, whites arrayed against blacks and blacks against whites have kept up a constant warfare to the detriment of labor and the advantage of capital.
"When has the American Federation of Labor campaled among its white members for its ideal of fair play reiterated in frequent resolutions? It has permitted the labour movement to become infested with narrowness and bigotry, while blaming Negroes for not joining its ranks.
"It is no defense to point out that only a few national organizations bar Negroes from membership. Subterranean of one kind or another restricts as effectively as law. Nor does the federal local solve the problems. This expedient has offered an escape, but not a solution; for it provides the badge, but not the protection, of unionism. Federal locals have no independence. Its members have no self-determination, for they are bound by the regulations of the executive council of the A. F. of L. who, as officers of various national units, condone the discriminations which have made federal locals expedient.
"As inoffensive as these federal locals are, they are, as a rule, organized only when Negroes themselves take the initiative. If your new promise to help contemplates the initiative by the federation, will you organize federal locals of Negro plumbers, of machinists, railway mail clerks and others similarly excluded?

diately it undertook to establish friendly relations with your office. Once in that year and again the following year the writer appeared before the executive council of the American Federation of Labor in an effort to remove the laxity of the federation towards the Negro workers.
"We offered to raise one-half of the salary of a competent Negro who would work under your direction in trying to smooth out the relationship between colored workers and the various component national and international organizations, but you informed us that the 'executive council does not at this time feel that the American Federation of Labor can undertake to meet the expense which would be involved in carrying out your proposition.'
"As to our own position on this question, a convention of the National Urban League, assembled in Detroit in 1919, wont on record by resolution as favoring unionization of Negro workers. Various locals of the league have adopted resolutions or have aided units of the federation in one way or another. A trade union committee of white and colored people, which won favor from prominent federation officials, had its genesis in an Urban League office.
"We write you in this fashion, not because we are antagonistic, but because we want to see something done. The Urban League is trying to lift the status and standards of Negro workers, but how can it do this as long as workers of the two racial groups wrangle for advantage."
Woman's Body Discovered Floating in Harlem River
The body of an unknown woman, clothed in a black satin skirt and considerably decayed from its apparent stay of five or six weeks in the water, was found floating in Harlem River at the foot of East 132d street on Friday. The woman, according to the Missing Persons' Burgean, was removed to the Fordham Hospital Morgue. She was about 25 years old and 5 feet 2 inches tall, brown in color, weigh about 148 pounds, and had short, black hair. Four of the front upper teeth had been broken off at the roots and one tooth of the lower left jaw has a gold cap which is fastened by a bridge to a false tooth, also of the lower jaw. A plain gold wedding ring, which had been broken and welded together, is the only other clue with which the police have to work in their efforts to establish the woman's identity.
Old Age Pension Bill Offered to.Legislature
ALBANY, Jan. 13.—A bill to provide a pension of 550 a month to aged indigents who have reached the age of 70-years will be submitted to the legislature at this session by Assemblyman Frank X. Bernhardt, Erie, Republic. It is estimated that there are 76,000 persons over 65 needing aid. The number past 70 is placed at 51,000. Under the provisions of the bill the expense will be a 50-50 charge between county and state, the money to be derived from a small direct tax or through income tax. This detail is yet to be worked out.

Urban League Added 2,000 Members In 1929, Hubert Says in Annual Report
New York Branch Sets $75,000 as 1930 Budget Boys' Court Worker, Housing Department Among Projects to Be Launched
Reporting a membership increased by 2,000 during 1929, the New York Urban League, 206 West 136th street, held its annual meeting at the League building last Wednesday afternoon and evening in two consecutive sessions.
The afternoon session was presided over by Mrs. Joseph M. Proskauer, white, chairman of the division of housing of the Welfare Council. James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the league, gave a resume of the work done by the organization in 1929, and outlined the plans to enlarge the work of the Institution in 1930.
With a court worker for girls secured, the league hopes to engage this year a similar worker for boys. According to S. A. Allen, industrial secretary, a budget of $5,000 for this additional court worker is almost complete.
The league, according to Mr. Hubert's report, sent 500 boys and girls to the country for summer vacations. The organization has secured the co-operation of the Speedwell Society, which operates a unit in Harlem for the convalescence of babies.
As a part of its program for 1930, Mr. Hubert said, the league hopes to establish a housing bureau that will act as an arbitrator between tenants and landlords as soon as a suitable person is found to head the department. A budget of $75,000 for 1930, an increase of $21,000 over last year, is necessary if the organization is to serve Harlem as it should, Mr. Hubert declared.

Aaron B. Rabinowitz, white millionaire and builder, member of the State
(International News Reel Photo) Philadelphia's most socially prominent ra through one of their concert numphia, recently bought and presented se of inmates in forming institutional housing board, spoke on the need of a better housing program in Harlem. Increased earning power, study of housing, strict laws in building, migration of a portion of the population to larger industrial centers, were some of the suggestions made by Mr. Holden as to how Harlem might solve its housing problem. Mr. Rabinowitz favored the co-operative plan of apartment house ownership and management.
Mrs. Alice Fairclough, a teacher in Junior High School 136, in her address in the evening, gave a picture of what the girls who leave the junior high school are doing in New York City. They either enter senior high school or they go to work, Mrs. Fairclough declared. During a recent survey, Mrs. Fairclough said, she found the girls engaged in industry as apprentices in dressmaking and millinery establishments, doctors' assistants, switchboard clerks, laundry workers, music teachers, and dancers. Their
wages averaged from $8 to $40 per week.
Only Ten Drug Stores
Miss Flora Pinkney, labor organizer of the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union, said that the garment union has two, Negroes on its executive board and they have a voice in all governing policies. George F. Clayton, pharmacist, urged the immediate formation of a local pharmaceutical association for Harlem. There are in Harlem, according to Mr. Clayton, only ten drug stores owned and operated by Negroes in Harlem.
Luke Wyche, organizer of the Compressed Air Workers' Union, told of the increase of the Negro compressed air worker from a wage of $4 to $12 per day. This increase he attributed to the strength of their organization.
Others to speak included Mrs. Elizabeth Coleman, bureau of women in industry, and A. Phillip Randolph, president and general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.
Arthur C. Holden, white, chairman; John E. Nall, vice-chairman; Leroy E. Bowman, white, second chairman; Eva D. Bowles, secretary, and Joseph D. Higgins, white, treasurer, were reelected to the league's executive board.
Three new members were elected to serve on the executive board for the new term of office; they are Abby Porter Leland, white, principal Public School 157; Elsa Butler Grove, white, lecturer and teacher of economics at Teachers' College, and Harold Riegelman, white, lawyer. Mrs. L. M. Blumstein, white, head of the Blumstein stores, was elected to the advisory council.
Judge Gives Youth Fare Home Instead of Prison
Expecting to receive a stiff jail term when he was haled before Judge Stackell in Bronx Court last Wednesday on a charge of violating his parole, George Dorsey, 16, of Havre de Grace, MD, received a ticket home instead.
Dorsey was picked up as a vagrant by railroad police while trying to get a free ride to his home. He was arraigned on a vagrancy charge and given a suspended sentence by Magistrate Silberman in Morrisonia Court.
Judge Stackell had given him a suspended sentence Dec. 20 for unlawful entry, and the parole violation charge became automatic when he was haled to court again. When assured that Dorsey would give no more trouble if given the opportunity to go home, Judge Stackell ordered $10 drawn from the court's charity fund.

Former Premier Advocates Simple But Segregated Life for Natives
Former Premier Advocates Simple But Segregated Life for Natives
Challenged by Dr. Moton for Likening African's Patience to That of Animal General Views Whites as Rulers
General Jan Christian Smuts, former premier of the Union of South Africa, outlined his solution for the color problem in South Africa in an address Thursday afternoon at the Town Hall, Forty-third street, near Sixth avenue.
The Boer general, who proclaimed himself a "white African" in his address to 2,000 at the Civic Forum, clearly defined what he considered the best relationship and policies for peace among the blacks and whites in South Africa. The little statesman and soldier declared he favored segregated and simple existence for the blacks and the administration and development of the entire African empire by the whites.
is better to have an orderly, docile and natural people instead of the wild, disorganized Bolsheviks created by contact with whites. At intervals during his speech the general was emphatic in declaring his respect for the native and his primitive civilization.
The Africa of the future will be one in which the whites will rule and
The native, with whom General Sims has had some contact for a half century, was described as the most patient of animals next to the sea. This statement was apparently presented by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, who sat on the platform to the left of Sims. When asked for an explanation by the educator, who assisted her, she recalled that the speaker of every Negro, the speaker desired Dr. Moton that he was mere-using the comparison to extol a virtue.
Should Preserve Customs.
African traditions and customs should be preserved wherever possible, declared General Smuts, who is emphatic in his belief that European civilization is all wrong for native blacks. He contended that the policy in the future should be to integrate the African in his tribal environment, giving him only relation in the same dose as meted to whites. However, he prescribes and other institutions such as would not break down tribal systems. The men would be "allowed" to work in the mining compounds and on the farms for limited periods, mixing with the whites as little as possible for fear of "contamination." Defending his stand, the African visitor stated that natives are in nowise fitted to accept and profit by the culture and culture of the African. The men are highly organized and creditable system of their own, he said, and should keep it.
In his description of the natives in their own haunts, General Smuts asserted that the aborigines have the right to choose their customs. With them everything should be for the good of all people. On the other hand, the whites assert that the individual should get what he wants. Surely, the forum lectures held, it

is better to have an orderly, docile and natural people instead of the wild, disorganized Bolshevists created by contact with whites. At intervals during his speech the general was emphatic in declaring his respect for the native and his primitive civilization.
The Africa of the future will be one in which the whites will rule and use the vast resources of the Union for benefiting the people held. Civilization is inevitable, he argued, and the problem of color will become more acute unless the natives are pushed almost entirely into a world of their own.
Questions asked from the audience at the end of the address indicated considerable disapproval of General Smuts' views and the policies of his government in dealing with the native South Africans. Each person was treated with respect, however, and debate was impossible.
The Hampton Institute Quarter sang spirituals before and after the address.
Jewish Girl Asks $10,000 For Alleged Discrimination
MLWAUKEE, Wls., Jan. 13.—A suit to collect $10,000 from officers of Langdon Hall, a women's dormitory at the University of Wisconsin, for alleged discrimination against Jewish girls, has been filed in Federal Court here by Mildred L. Gordon, 20 of Chicago, a junior at the university. Summons were served on R. D. Malone, Madison, secretary-treasurer of the Mendots Building Company, which operates Langdon Hall, by counsel for Miss Gordon. Miss Gordon, who says her room reception at Langdon Hall was secured by a application fee of $25, was refused admittance to the dormitory when she arrived with her trucks and baggage to enter the university, she alleges. Miss Gordon charges that the owners of the building have adopted an ironbound policy to deny Jewish women access at Langdon Hall. Literature sent out by the owners, she said, indicate no rules discriminating against any race or religion.

Amazing Philosophy of General Smuts
(For the Associated Negro Press.)
GENERAL SMUTS, ex-Premier of South Africa, is now in America discussing African and other British imperial problems. The General is said to represent the more liberal sentiment of the whites of South Africa, and is reputed to be much more liberal and humane toward the blacks than is his successor in office. Smut's so-called friendly and humane attitude is therefore an amazing revelation of the political myopia and social inhumanity that must be ruling in that part of the world.
In an address in Town Hall Theatre, New York City. General gave an enthusiastic description of physical Africa the most elevated land of all the land of the world, the highest continent except Europe. The loftiest mountains, from the mountain base to the summit; the greatest falls; the most luxurious forests; the most extensive plateaus; the widest and driest deserts; and the sole remaining sanctuary of the great game animals.
General Smuts was fairly logical so long as he confined his discussion to the general problems of Africa, its climate and its resources. In this part of his talk he was like a representative of some travel agency, bidding for American tourists. He urged Americans to come to Africa, either as tourists or as settlers, calling attention to the fact that although that continent lies across the Equator, its climate is remarkably cool on account of the great elevation of its plateau. This urgent invitation was meant for white Americans, of course: for although General Smuts gave a brief and false answer when he could come it is known by all intelligent investigators that the South African Government refuses to visa the entrance of Negroes from anywhere, and is most especially opposed to admitting intelligent Negroes from the United States.
Even when an African black manages to get out of Africa and come to America and get an education, he finds it next to impossible to get admitted back into his own native land. But when the General took up the job of president of South Africa—he was about as logical and as impressive as the average politician from Mississippi would be if he were talking to an audience in Harlem on the political and social privileges of American Negroes. First the ex-promier tried to show that black Africans were mentioned as slaves even in the Bible—thus appealing to the religious and the itinerant blacks for average man min. He did not have love any such passage in the Bible, and we have failed to find it after reading that book through.
While admitting that the "slave period" was a great injustice to Africans, he yet declares that the "missionary period" was equally at fault in that it tried to do what he calls "Europeanizing the African." Then, and in order to make peace with the Christians, he immediately added: the missionaries have done more for the good of Africa than any other agency." Then the General proceeds to show very clearly that his own policy toward the native calls for large-scale segregation of the Africans, in compounds, or reservations or colonies. The women and children are not to be allowed to leave these extensive open-air jails for any reason whatsoever, but the men are to be permitted (or compelled) to come away for terms of weeks, months or years, from the fields, and in other services from which native labor is not barred by law.
And this terrible program of the slow and sure killing off of the native population is cloaked by the expremier under the benevolent phrase "of preserving African culture." He pleads eloquently for saving to the Africans their right to continue to sleep and dance and teach them, that time they can get off from the mines, and for protecting them against the civilization of the European white man, which Smuts calls "most destructive."
He thinks there is much virtue in "the African system," and he wants to preserve it "for the African," he says very emphatically; while keeping the "destructive system" (of owning

Saturday at Lincoln Folk from the only home which many of them had known for years must the passage of the oldest institution of the city. The aged home dates back to the days of salvery. From its very humble beginning sprang the Lincoln Hospital and Training School for Nurses, one of the best equipped institutions of its kind in New York and located at 141st street and Southern boulevard.
Begun by Whites
In 1839 a group of influential white women, moved by a humanitarian instinct and a feeling of pity for the plight of the unhappy slave who was fortunate enough to escape from the toils of slavery in the South, established the Colored Home as a haven of refuge.
Six years later this same institution was incorporated in 1845 as the Colored Home of the City of New York. By this time it had become something more than a Utopia for the escaped slaves, with its commitment with open arms. A lying-in department and a hospital ward for children were added. Changing its location from time to time, the progress of the institution was one of steady growth and in 1888 it was moved to the present site of Lincoln Hospital. At this time white patients were admitted for the first time and a training school for nurses was begun. Two years later, in 1900, the first nursing class was graduated. The city bought the school in 1902. The training school was continued under the management of the Board of Managers.
Now a municipally maintained institution, city-wide in the scope of service rendered, Lincoln Hospital did not forget the aged folk whom it served in its beginning. Two wards were set aside to accommodate the old men and women. With the recent removal of the last of them, the old men and women, Welfa Island, the Colored Home of the City of New York has passed from the scene and will no doubt, within a few years be forgotten. While the old Negro in-

Elevator Operator Saves Man and Boy From Blaze
Donald Meyers, 151 West 140th street, is receiving hearty congratulations today because of his heroism last Wednesday, when he saved a crippled youth and an aged blind man, both white, when a fire, starting in the basement, roars up an airplane and swept the upper floors of the apartment house at 73 Lenox avenue, where he is employed as an elevator operator.
The crippled youth, Robert Olmo, 18, was recovering from a recent operation on his foot and was alone in the basement. He was in upper floors of the seven-story building when he was carried to the street by Meyers. Gonzales Quinlines, 68, the blind man, also owes his life to the courage of Meyers, who assisted him from the fire-swept building.
Flames darting from the window of a vacant apartment on the northeast corner of the top floor were first seen by policeman Masterson, white, of the West 123d street police station, who put in the alarm which brought firemen to the scene. They were rushed to the top floor of the apartment, where he continued to push onto his elevator in spite of the smoke which filled the building until power was shut off. The fire was finally brought under control with an estimate damage of $5,000 to the structure.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 (CNS).—According to the present list compiled by the Quartermaster General's office, 600 Gold Star mothers and widows of Negro World War heroes will receive invitations from the United States Government to make a pilgrimage to the European graves of their sons and husbands, at the expense of the Government.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 (C
list compiled by the Quartermast
mothers and widows of Negro
invitations from the United Sta
grimage to the European grave
the expense of the Government
Although 1,268 Negro soldiers are interred in the American foreign cemeteries the list which is being compiled to date shows only 600 mothers and widows who are entitled to make the pilgrimage. This number is somewhat smaller than was at first estimated due to the fact that investigation revealed a large number-of deaths among the mothers of heroes, while their widows were disqualified by remarriage in many instances. A small percentage have not been located to date.
Uncle Sam, as host, will spare nothing in providing for the comfort and welfare of the pilgrimage. Every detail is being carefully worked out and competent personnel will be assigned to provide for their every attention. All expense of transportation, meals, hotel accommodations, guides and government attention will be given by the government in tips to bellboats and ship captains, taxi fares incidental to the trip will be paid for the guests while they are on route from their homes, both ways.
Each widow or mother will be furnished before she leaves home with a railroad ticket and lower berth or Pullman seat, and funds to provide per derm expenses, including food, gratuities and like.
According to the present plan each pilgrim allowed 48 hours in New York before returning, and will probably be given two weeks in Europe, or more, depending upon schedules of ships to be used and the location of the cemeteries to be visited. Wherever necessary, the army will provide personnel escort for the voyagers.
The office of the Quartermaster General requests that it be notified if any name that should be included is omitted from the following list, or in the event any name is erroneous, so that the error may be corrected. The army is anxious that no mother or widow be slighted, and are making every effort to complete an accurate list.
The following is a list by states of the Negro mothers and widows in the eastern section of the United States, who are known to be eligible for the pilgrimage, to date: Connecticut. WILSON, Mrs. Mary, mother, 46 Mills street, Meriden.

Senator Borah Suggests That Civilian High Commissioner Be Sent to Haiti
Foreign Relations Chairman Says Country Should Elect Own Congress and President-Deplores Military Rule
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13—Forecasting early action by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on the resolution providing for a commission to study conditions in Haiti, as recommended by President Hoover, was indicated today by Chairman Borah following a meeting of the committee last week.
Sentiment also developed favorably to the appointment of a civil governor to administer Haitian affairs, instead of the question of inquiry proposed by the President.
"The committee did not take final action on the matter of the commission," Mr. Borah said. "I think we will do so shortly, however. I am not myself opposed to a commission, but I feel that some things ought to be done without waiting for the report of a commission. We should appoint a civilian as high commissioner or as governor, for that is what it is, in Haiti.
Secondly, we should give the Haitian people a free and untrammeled election, this election they should be permitted to vote for members of their Congress for the Congress should be permitted, as is provided by the Constitution, to elect their President.
goests in the American Congress that Haitians be permitted to vote for Congressmen shows to what extent their interests are affected by their interests. The interference of the United States has assumed the character of complete enslavement of the Haitian people to the extent that a clause has been inserted in their Constitution to the validity of all decisions made by the authorities of the military occupation.
"Haiti must be restored to the full enjoyment of its sovereign rights in the shortest time possible. It is objectionable to capital investments with impermissible. Taking the material progress of any one country as an excuse for maintenance of illegitimate military occupations. This
"We have been of much service to the Haitians in some respects, particularly in the bettering of their sanitary conditions. But we have not assisted them in the slightest in political affairs or in preparing them for self-government.
"Over twelve years ago we dissolved their Assembly by force of arms and since that time they have not been permitted in any substantial way to have anything to do with their government. They are completely disfranchised.
"The United States Government ought to be ashamed to stand before the world at this time, with all our professions of peace and with all our military power, in the attitude of keeping a military heel upon a helpless people. This is a fundamental matter of policy and will have to be decided by the government."
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, Jan. 10—Mayoralty elections scheduled for today in Port-au-Prince were not held because officials said two candidates failed to comply with certain provisions of the electoral law. The third candidate withdrew. Backers of Georges J. Petit, one of the candidates, said they were sending a cable of protest to Washington.
BUENOS AIRES, Jan. 10—The Argentine newspaper La Prensa, aroused by opposition in the United States by Foreign Relations Committee to President Hugo Chávez's proposal to send a commission to Haiti to investigate the present situation, suggests "a more definite policy" that the nature of this more defined policy should be suggested. La Prensa says: "The president Hoover's message to Congress and its general attitude toward international relations sends hope that the president of the tenth of Haitians to govern themselves."
"The postponement of the proposed commission's investigation aggregates an already serious situation in Haiti that has been worsened by foreign control for fourteen years without a Congress, without free elections, without the possibility of resolving its own internal problems and the pretended appearance of sovereignty.
"The subjection of the Haitian people is complete. The maintaining of military forces, which are increased on the military difficulty are factors which, day by day, are bands by which imperialistic power is absorbing this small republic. Despite many objections which could be made to sending an investigating committee to investigate actual circumstances to be an opportunity measure to bring to the attention of Americans what is going on in a completely subjugated American force.
"The commission's investigations might disclose why sovereign rights are not returned to the republic, which now is approaching an election that is being deprived of the liberty of voting freely by pressure exercised by detachments of American marines. The fact that Senator Borah sug-

gestes in the American Congress that Haitians be permitted to vote for Congressmen shows to what extent they have been deprived of their liberties. The United States has assumed the character of complete enslavement of the Haitian people to the extent that a clause has been inserted in their Constitution recognizing the validity of all declarations of authorities of the military occupation.
"Haiti must be restored to the full enjoyment of its sovereign rights in the shortest time possible. It is obvious that certain United States interests will oppose such a move, but the American government officials that the American Hemisphere cannot accept the existence of capital investments or the possibility of increasing the material progress of any one country will maintain the legitimate military maintenance of this policy of 'protection', which is repudiated by entire America, must cease at once and for all."

City Employee Finds Relief In Konjola!
Grateful New York Man Relates His Splendid Experience With This Medicine.
Times without number grateful men and women have explained: "How I wish I had known of Konola long ago; think of the suffering and expense I might have been spared."
MR. HENRY TAYLOR.
Photo by Torres, 101 Lenox avenue.
This is not a mere statement; it is a fact established by experiences like that, for instance, of Mr. Henry Taylor, city employee, 2164 Fifth avenue, New York. Yet there is nothing unusual in his case; there are thousands upon thousands like it on the records of this medicine for constipation, indigestion, when caused by faulty bowel action. Would you not like to know all about this medicine of 32 patients, 226; them the juices of roots, heroes? Then more: the Konjola if nearest you. Ask questions, be curious. Look into the records of this medicine that has won more than a million friends in just six years. Now read what Mr. Taylor says of Konjola:
"How I wish I had known of Konjola long ago; what suffering and expense I might have been spared. I suffered terrible from headaches, and a most awful pain in one ear. I had rheumatism in both legs, and my digestion was far from what it should be. I endured fierce pains after every meal, and as I gained little value from my food, I became weaker and weaker. I had tried so many medicines, all highly recommended, and had met with no success, that I was discouraged and felt like giving up.
"Then a friend told me about Konjola, and insisted that I try it. I did, and what Konjola did for me in just three weeks seemed too good to be true. But true it was. My digestion was restored; the headaches and the pain in my ear vanished, and the rheumatic pains left my limb. I am feeling better than I ever expected to feel again, and I owe it all to Konjola."
The history of Konjola is made up of just such experiences; victory after victory; triumph after triumph. Tens of thousands have paid glowing praise to this medicine.
Get the facts about Konjola. There is a Konjola Man at the Whelen drug store, 51st and Broadway, New York, and another at the Hanover drug store, 389 Bridge street, near Fulton, Brooklyn, where daily they are meeting the public and telling about Konjola. The public may also visit a Konjola Man at any one of the following drug stores:

Trembles

Witty peddlers and canvassers soon learned that it was an easy matter to ring a top floor bell and gain admittance to apartment houses.
A timely parody may read thus: "Leave it to the Dutch." What's happening this time? Just this—Dutch housewives have solved the problem of how to keep out unwelcome door-to-door visitors.

If the home laudress will fold her tablecloths three times lengthwise before any cross-folding is done, the ugly bump in the center of the cloth will be avoided and the linen will set smoother and better.
Marks caused with hot plates or hot water jugs, etc., on polished tables may be removed by the following application: Mix a tiny pinch of salt with a little olive oil and rub into affected parts. If the mark doesn't disappear with the first application, allow the mixture to remain on, and in a few hours' time apply the salt and oil again, rubbing with a circular movement.
Sew sonny's buttons on with crochet cotton. They will rarely come off when this strong thread is used.
If you are afraid to stitch heavy cretones on the sewing machine, rub the seams with yellow soap and then the needle will slide through the goods without breaking.
Instead of using paper in dresser drawers, paint the inside of each drawer with light-colored lacquer. They will then present a gay appearance and are easily kept clean.

A. S. Beck Stores Offer Metallic Moire Slippers
Milady certainly must go to parties. These parties are often formal, thus calling for high heels, gardenias 'n' everything. At the A. S. Beck shoe store there are evening slippers that will go beautifully with your new eggshell evening gown. The slippers are of white metallic moire with silver bands and high heels. They cost only $5 and you can have them dyed later to match a new dress, if you like. The Beck stores are also selling opera slippers in metallic moire with overlays of silver and gold. This standard $5 price is almost unbelievable, especially since the shoes keep right in step with the swift fashion changes in foot modes. The nearest Beck store in Harlem is located at 264 West 125th street.

Utopia House Notes
The New York Amsterdam News
Apples will keep fresh and sound for any length of time if packed in sawdust.
Before carrying hot liquids to the slick room, fill the container with boiling water and let stand for a few minutes. Pour out and fill with the nourishment. The food will stay hot longer and the journey through the house to the patient will not affect the temperature of the food.
A sure way of testing the heat of the oven for cake and pastry making is to place a sheet of white paper on the oven shelf. If it turns dark brown immediately, the oven is too hot for any cooking.
If, when it is left in for about four minutes, it becomes a golden brown, the oven is just the right heat for puffy pastry and bread.
To be suitable for small cakes and short pastry, it should turn light brown in four minutes. If it should turn dark yellow, it will be right for large cakes.

Dear Girl Scout:
Camp Reunion went over with a bang on Friday. More than three-fourths of the campers turned out and all seemed to forget that the time was really mid-winter and the place only the Urban League Building. The girls actually acted as though it were again July and they were gathered round the campfire at Emetown.
The affair was conducted by the campers themselves as follows: Lella Gardner, camp logs; Ogda Jorgenson, songs; Elnora Blum, bugle and cheers; Mary Lou Hall, refreshments; Maxine Stockhouse, hostess; and Alda Harrison in charge. Mrs. Leslie Colby, Girl Scout director of Manhattan, captains from various troops, committee members, and other Girl Scouts were among the guests.
In spite of Saturday's cold, thirty-five Scouts tramped to Tibet Brook Park with Misses Gladys Thorne, Constance White and Mary Lou Hall. Many of the group were new to hiking, coming from P. S. 119, Troop 142 at Emanuel Church and a new troop at Mother Zion. Others were the old steady hikers from Troops 91, 153, and 175. The next district hike will take place in March.

It's annoying to powder up for the day and then find that in a few hours the shine is back again. When you use Poro Peroxide Vanishing Cream first you avoid this trouble because this cream gives smoothness to the skin and prepares it so that powder adheres much longer. Also contains pure medicinal hydrogen peroxide — an efficient and absolutely harmless bleaching agent.

Looking Your Best BY FANNETTE
"DON'T pinch and save, wives! When it is a toss-up between buying something to improve your appearance and putting it in the bank, do the former. Keep yourself neat and attractive. It may take a little from the bank as savings, but it's worth while in its dividend to you." So advises one of our best-known ministers. Of course, many husbands won't agree with him. That is, about the spending part. They don't object to their wives being attractive, so long as it doesn't cost anything. Haven't you noticed the saddened and lifeless expression of many women who are denying themselves the little things that mean so much in a woman's life? Haven't you seen hard-working wives close their eyes and a year afterwards in stepped some young thing for whom even the best wasn't good enough?
The general idea of the matter isn't to be one extreme or the other. Buy what you need, what you believe will be an asset and then don't spend the rest of your time regretting that you spent the money.
"When your house dresses get old and worn out, don't turn them inside out and darn them until they look like patchwork. Get pretty new ones."
Now, if a man advises this, he must know whereof he speaks.
Next time you're pondering over whether to save that extra dollar or to get yourself a smock, you'll have a good argument for the smock.

To be light is an advantage, sometime, I know, but being so light that one forgets his own race is unfortunate, especially where it causes a man to forget his wife and children. My husband has been employed for many years as white. During our first years of married life he was no ideal husband. Lately he has caused me much worry. His associates are now nearly all white and he seems afraid or ashamed to have them visit him. Of course, he visits them and meets others. Many of them are women. Recently I found a letter from one of these women and, from the sound of it, they seem to be very friendly.
I have spoken to him about it, but he just got angry and called me a few unpleasant names. What would you advise. Egypsey Ann, in a case of this sort?
There are times when folks can do nothing but wait patiently, and this. I believe, is one of those times.
Your husband has to have his run-out. He has to learn by experience. Let him learn.
It is indeed deplorable that you can't reason with him. For your sake and his children's sake he ought to wake up. He OUGHT to, but he probably won't. A few white people have accepted his company and he feels awfully big about it. He feels honored and, so long as they continue to notice him, he'll continue to feel so.
Just let things take their own course. If you leave him, he can't be forced to support you. At present he has forgotten all about his home, but let him have his run-out and after

The Street Pleasure Left Behind
The Street Pleasure Left Behind
135th Street, Once Mecca of Midnight Revellers, Now a Quiet Residential
THE LINCOLN Theatre is dark. The indefinite closing of the amusement house marks the passing of an age once the center of Harlem night life. Today the crossstown thoroughfare is a quiet residential street, the street inhabited by people who work hard all day and who are too tired to be gadding about at night. A few automobiles by people down from the 1838 Street Bridge are all that save the east end of the street from an aspect of desolation that dart furtively in and out of the hallways. Before the war the east end of the street is a block between Lenox and Fifth avenues, was the nerve center of Harlem's nocturnal geezy What a whale of a street it was in and the people and personalities. Seething with pleasure-seekers from dusk till dawn
CONSPICUOUS among the landmark: of 135th street in its prime and one that will evoke mingled emulation. The water was the soda fountain on the corner of Lenox avenue, where the United clear store now stands. It was a small store with two doors, their first long pants and sub-fabrics who were supposed to be doing their homework with Cousin Stella. The store was an outlandish name and indelible race prejudice which engendered numberless quarrels with his customers. It was a series of riots, which continued until the Greek moved away, with his bankbook bulking with deposits and a series of riots. He was laughing in the best of humor when he finally had goodbye to the community that had made him rich.
NEXT door to the Greek was Johnny Henry's place, a restaurant, where uptown New Yorkers went for the food. He even dipped over a of a pan of fat. Johnny Henry was a character and a personality. Besides his restaurant in 131st street and waking poolroom on an interest in one of the largest Chinese restaurants in Harlem. Still, he was usually shabby dressed and self-conscious. He wealth was a sleek sorrel gelling and a spick-and-span runabout which he flaunted in the face of all the motor cars. Johnny, like his neighbor, the Greek, has disappeared from the Harlem scene. But his passing left sweeter memories in its wake.
ACROSS from Johnny Henry's was the famous Connor's cabaret, up town successor to Maceo and Marrion. night life was colored with Connor's the tide of life began to rise at midnight and did not begin to bill till daylight. Between those hours actors, fighters, celebrities of all sorts, while a line of taxicabs waited in front of the door and a steady stream patrons poured in and out of the
Connor's was the ace of cabernets. Perhaps its gaudy decorations would be laughed at in these sophisticated gothic esthetic. But in the early years of the century, Harlem's "mauve decade," Connor's was considered the very last word in luxury and beauty. To sit in the instantation vine-leaves which festooned the windows, using in the soft light which shone through globes fashioned to cluster clusters of, with a Bronx cocktail at ones elbow on the onyx-topped table, living in a pagan swell—that was life! Shortly after the war the genial proprietor of the cabaret crossed over the Jordan and it was not long after passing that his establishment was wrecked and last visit by the wrecking crew.
ANOTHER high spot of pleasure was LeRoy's, down on the corner of fifty avenue. Much luxurious and charming, the patroness that was not so tony on the clientele of the former place. Le Roy's occupied a unique position in the Hariem night-world. He was a patroness that was served at the tables for the same price they sold for over the bar. It was possible to have a long evening's entertainment for an average cost of $1.50 person, exclusive of tips for the water. Le Roy did not pretend to give his patrons a swell resue. His floor show consisted of the several musicians of the house, singing or performing on some steal instrument. Nevertheless, it was swell entertainment that drew a house every night. My own patroness was a long, tall black girl, who used to play the bull fiddle. Later she played the same instrument in a Lafayette oratorium, where she is today and what they son-of-a bootlegger married her. After making a vallant fight against Prohibition and the changing fashion of LeRoy's, like the other joe-spots of 135th street, passed out of the picture.
AND now the Lincoln is dark. A building constructed especially for a place of public assembly, it cannot be considered to other purposes without it, considered to lose its identity as the other vanished landmarks of the block have lost theirs. Unless the currents of life and gavety again change their mood, the sound of channels, the auditorium will stand as a dark and silent reminder of the days when 135th street was a street of gladness. If there are ghosts in the dark theatre, Does Slim Henderson appear on the silent stage to divert a phantom audience in the dusty reats? Does Isabel Jackson perform as a guide for the delight of writings who enter the dark and she they were in the flesh? Do
the absence of turbulent mortal au-
rium and its memories for their own!
A poolroom occupies the site of Johnny Henry's old restaurant. He glittered three vases of mirth once darkly, forbidding in their bainness. A paints-pressing shop is on Le Roy's corner, and the Lincoln is shrouded in dust. Whaturb picture the street presents. This street that pleasure left behind!

Good Influence and Thoughtful Writers
By THE EDITOR
LAST Wednesday afternoon the employees of The Amsterdam News held a meeting in the editorial offices before which appeared William H. Davis, President and General Manager, to personally thank those whom it is his firm belief labored for the advancement of the paper in the past and the present. An unusual thing, if you should ask us, but nevertheless something which gave food for thought to many.
It is said that confession is good for the soul and if we should wake up during the day, we would possessor of such a thing, then we shall expect to enjoy our share of good. Employees the world over narrate at some period in their association wherein the "boss" is not only discussed, but, at times, roundly cussed, for we are not all blessed with that mentality which makes it possible to smile when we believe some right which we have fondly hugged to our breast is being waved aside, sometimes, to our way of thinking, summarily.
This, of course, will be no news to the president and general manager, for he dares to believe that his institution must go on no matter what the cost, especially if the final result will redound to the credit of the majority, hence he is blessed with the happy faculty of trying to judge his associates BY THEIR WORK AND IDEALISM. Now, all things considered, we believe we are perfectly justified in rising to ask: WOT KINDA MAN IS THIS?
If in rage you go out and relieve your mind by cussing him out to your friend, you associate and they come in and give him an earful, and he meets it with laughter and then ends up by laughing something like this: "heh—heh—heh—heh"; there is either something wrong with the man, or he has a strangle hold on an idea that his proposition is going over the ton.
Now we are gazing into the eyes of almost a score and ten employees. No hate, no axes to grind, they are all SATISFED and they all appear to be moved with a desire to add their share to the work in hand. The meeting turned out to be such a success that some of them immediately visualize the editorial room turned into an auditorium once a month and speakers alike attended. The certain growth of the paper will also make it possible to reach the Brooklyn and New Jersey, and invite those on the payroll to come and mingle and become better acquainted; to voice grievances and give suggestions for better service, and at the same time to be inspired by some one versed in arousing the emotions and directing them in the right channels. Taken suddenly one cannot say everything they would like to say on an occasion like the meeting spoken of above. We have got to find ourselves before remarking that while you are pressing us for what little we have done you forget to mention that this thing of voluntarily raising the as long as they give evidence of at least trying to toddle along with them something so new it will take a few months for the realization to arrive home. Coming back to our headline, we must confess that the influence under which we work is for the best, proving that for the first time the employees of The Amsterdam News have discovered that William H. Davis is a wrestler and he has his idea pinned to the mat and that strangle hold can’t relax when by their work the employees will be virtually shouting; GOOD BOY, DAVIS, YOU WIN! This is no rilote, but a plain statement of fact. Man is prone to rail against what he believes to be wrong in order to readilize once his grievance, hence he should be as ready to voice his opinion to keep secret the fact that The Amsterdam News’ employees have every right to gaze onward through 1930 with a home for better things to come.
NOW TO OUR THOUGHTFUL WRITERS
We believe that one of the reasons why The Amsterdam News has taken its place as the leading publication in that territory which it seeks to serve is because of the desire of its editors to bring before the people not only those who write in lighter vein, but because of those men who know the world better, and who bring superior intellect which carry an appeal to all and not to a circumspect audience. Of course, we are primarily concerned in discussing those we have the honor of presenting to readers of the sporting and amusement pages, abide we do share with so many readers the contributions of those men the managing editor so successfully brings to us from week to week. Early in the century the Negro editor obtinately refused to give way to opinions from other pens, believing that he would lose caste among his readers if he failed to show what he considered his superior ability. It is so evident that the Negro newspaper has suffered from this attitude and the space discussing weeks we have been enjoying the contributions from the Negro. Tutt treads upon whom we have always held a warm spot in our hearts because of his firm belief and faith in the Negro newspaper. In the days when Negroes were enjoying the best things from the stage, Mr. Whitney "carried on" along with his brother J. Homer Tutt at the head of the Smarter Set Company, and if today they are not enjoying that success which was their an early day, it should be with a sense of pride and gratification that they look to a period in which they had the acclaim of the public—a period that called for more brain than it takes to create a present day revue.
Mr. Whitney's contributions to these columns have been of a thoughtful nature, which only those of us who have followed his career and read with care and appreciation his "Mellow Musings" can fully appreciate. and it is with that hope bred of a desire to see our stage lifted from the slough of deep despond into which it has been thrown by a disastrous war and other contributing causes that we ask for a hearing at the hands of our readers for Mr. Whitney.
Theophilus Lewis belongs to that independent generation coming along with George S. Schuyler and Eugene Gordon. We were attracted to his writings and thoughtful thought brought to fill that void in publications of its kind which is today just as empty as when the learned Asa Philip Randolph, Owens, Schuyler and the rest of that brilliant brigade added to the joy of living. Because of the superior foundation the pen of Theophilus Lewis has driven home certain truths which this editor has tried to disclose for a generation, and it was early in his career that we hastened to pay tribute to his sense of observation, his ability and the courage with which he approached his subjects.
It would take the pen of a J. A. Rogers to do justice to the name of Arthur Schomburg, who has made a translation from the Spanish for these columns today of an article of one who in his time appeared in the theatres of Europe, South and Central America, and the West Indies. The Theophilus Schomburg will grace our columns from time to time and add that luster which heomburg has of this kind. Added to the contributions of our European correspondents of whom we spoke in our last issue, there is a certain reason for pride which few would deny us at this time.
If you will turn to the sport pages you will find such names as Arthur E. Francis, J. Mercer Burrell, and in the summer Sol White and others fully conversant with the subjects on which they write. Mr. Francis has told me that matter on basketball and tennis, taking time off from his exacting duties, is one of the foremost workers in political and civic activities. J. Mercer Burrell, a young practicing attorney, usually brings to his discussions a semi-legal mind, which leaves little room for criticism, while Sol White has been so close to basball for almost two generations, none questions his knowledge of an array of writers whose ability is best judged by a constant reading of the matter, which leaves The Amsterdam News far in front of all competitors.
Newark Council Girls
The Newark Student Council Girls have made a fine showing this season in basketball. They have played three successive games and have been named the MVP and Girls of Orange, by a score of 24 to 0; the Mysterious Five Girls of Jersey City, by a score of 27 to 17, and the Community Girls of Elizabeth, by a score of 28. The team is composed of the Misses Charlotte McGriff, captain; Emily Rolls, Gladys Scott, Beatrice Woods, Alverna Bertuce, Gertrude Gibbs and Ruth Griffin. The manager is Miss Bell and the coach James Ward.
Come On, Fellows!
The editor would appreciate time and place of games in accounts submitted for publication. When you fall to see your account in these columns you'll know just why.

Talk Ain't Cheap
BY S. T. WHITNEY.
"I has been commonly asserted that 'Talk's Cheap', but we are going to take the negative and declare that 'Talk ain't cheap'. We are forced to admit that the expression as it is is not as elegant, ungrammatical, so to speak in it and we leave ourself wide open to the accusation of solemn.
'Talk ain't cheap' like some of our sing expressions. has a certain force behind it, and says 'Talk is not cheap'. Like dressing in East Side or a Eowery baby up in a Lord Faunterley suit and a red ribbon bicep. Then, suppose the argument is something after this fashion: 'Talk is cheap'. "It is not cheap". "It tis'is". "It Taunt!!" "Tis!'" "Taunt!!" The guy on the negative is at a disadvantage ungrammatically with long tongue-sucking of correct English.
A certain minister, who lived in parishiphia erecta, a magnificent church with a large congregation, with the receipts he collected from his lecture talks. His most popular lecture was "Acrees of Diamonds." He found anything he could be found in one's backyard. We found anything in our backyard but a constant pile of unsaved, unspilt wood and a luxuriant growth of assorted seeds that refused to be suppressed.
What he meant to convey was that it is not necessary for a guy to go to the other side of the world to gain a home town if you can locate and dig them up: That you don't have to envy or covet the talents of another, but have talents that will shine if we take the time and trouble to burnish them.
Reverting to the subject of talk, there are many lecturers, preachers, and radio-supporter, monologues and radio-supporter, covert salaries for talking. Entertaining, instructive and constructive talk is never cheap. Neither is idle and not useful. And "tally-gagging" take up time and time is ever precious. Time, next to life, is our most valuable possession and we must prodigiously Great, thinkers have never been great talkers. If we entertainment vendors put into practical usage one-thousandth part of the things we talk about, we stop the world. Less fulminating and more demonstrating would vastly improve our present condition.
Start something, and every other talk you tell one just how is can be accomplished. They will even go farther with their talk, they will promise assistance to the teacher, they will talk about the territory they will not just talk, because they figure that

talk is cheap. Ask a joekoode to give of his time, labor and money and the requester stands as isolated as if he has just been pronounced or denounced a leger. The one and only thing that a gang does successfully is talk. A mob is only expert at lynching. Capt Dean says that fifty courageous, aggressive, and ruthless men have saved Africa to the Africans, but he is unable to say where the fifty can be found. Fifty organized, courageous, men and women of our theatrical profession could control the colored show business, but where to find the men and women of these thieves is ever accomplished by be by or two or three persons possessed of the qualities enumerated above.
It is to laugh to think about a people governing themselves. The people are joke. The people are led, directed and governed by a few men and the laws are made by the same few menammed down the throats of the people whether or not they suit their taste.
There may be such a thing as "government of the people, for the people," but not "by the people." The people are too willing to be governed, too occupied with their own selfish pursuits to be worried much about the government or who is doing the governing. Ever so often they do a lot of talking, but the leaders know that just talk never set anything in motion but hot air.
Truth to state, the people are not qualified to govern themselves. Collect the persons in these United States who can recite the Declaration of Independence and who are familiar with all the articles of our Constitution and all of them could be assembled in the Lafayette Theatre and Mr. Schiffman would still have room enough left to put on a Ringling Brothers' Circus and a Western Rodeo at the same time.
It's about time we stop talking about the color-line and make a bedline after the thing or things we wear, and talk about something he goes after half-heartedly or unspared, he howls about the color-line. There is a color-line, but it is usually a yellow-line straight up the nose, and we know that to our mind evidences racial inferiority so much as to blame the color-line for about 90 per cent of all our failures. Then when are not our enemies and we know it. History proves that our ancestors did not deal any more gently, humanely or considerably with those within their power than the dominate race determined. The law is "the trial of the fittest." If we make ourselves fit we will survive. If we are unfit we are not fit to survive. If we are unfit we are not fit to survive. If we are unfit affairs it is because we are unfit to control them. Our envy, jealousy, and distrust of one another, our lack of faith in each other and our failure of efforts of each other make us our own worst enemies.

is the rare result of hybridism between all the races of the earth. The earth has been burden of great endurance, hardiness and endurance. Our endurance has been proven, hardiness attested, we are gluttones for punishment, and we are doctiles almost to the point of imbecility.

Brindis De Salas
BRILLIANT and blinking like the morning star of our heaven of evening ray that lighted the poetic part of the voluminist in his pilgrimage of glory in the temples to exhibit his art. Just as the concave cedar of the firmament is covered with stars during those early tropical mornings or as those in the spring in the full of perfumed bodils and in the full of perfumed bodi so was the beautiful, charming and incomparable technique of young nurse, vigorous and dime, that filtered into the inspiration of this spiritual brother of Paganism. Far from being handsome, ruthless, he passes in the kingdom of which for the first time the same life, very grateful rewards, cruel trollies and magnificent. Substitute casting pearls of harmony in his voyages of erratic flings like flowers that blossom during May in tropical landscapes.
TUBERCULAR, dirty, ill-dressed, one morning he was found dead in the interior of a hotel along the beautiful July Parkway in the cosmopolitan city of Buenos Aires, Argentine Republic.
When the autopsy was about to be held the students who had undressed the body discovered a corseled basilic form. This admired violinist saved his body from being scattered by the curiosity of the young students. Who can this dirty and wormy man be who wears a corset? They searched the pockets of the fragmentary garments the sad humanity of the Negro they had taken to the embroider. A card with folds of a passport and a program of a concert given at Banda were read with pleasant adoration: "Chevalier de Brindis, Bara de Salal!"
The famous artist's body had been known on the marble slab of the public morgue between a suicide and a thief. At his funeral there was a name of the city who had loved the Bohemian artist and her flowers were the only tribute that covered his grave. Poor lyrical bird whose trills gave a gesture of joy!
Such was his earthly pilgrimage after having visited the great festive capitals receiving the applause, the honours and homages from the most intelligent public of the world. For what purpose did Brindis land in Alres? To what reason can be ascribed such a lamentable and tragic end? All that is known, be landed in the Republic of Plata from the steamer Satrustegui that brought him from Europe. Everything else is unknown.
BRINDIS DE SALAS was married to a German lady of noble birth, a wonderful beauty who bore him three children. They became court officers of the late German Emperor and are living in Berlin. A black natural daughter it is supposed lives in Buenos Aires, another, a colored girl, lives in Mexico. Brindis was a naturalized German as was them by his passport, which the students found in his clothing when they were looking for concrete creations of the corrupted dead, which showed him a naturalized Prussian priest. He spoke fluently seven languages in the European courts the delicate hands of Princesses enthusiastically expanded; many placed in the lapel of his dress-suit flowers and Princess' generations of merit. The Imperial of Berlin was the vast scenic background of his great triumphs. Here he was appointed the great court violinist to the Emperor of Germany, who pinned on his breast the decoration Cross of the Black Eagle. His father, Claude Brindis de Salas, genial musician, was crowned at Salamanca in the presence of Marshal Berland by the great ladies of the money at a very brilliant reception held in his honor by the aristocratic lady. He died poor and miserable after losing his son, he also had a sad and after hearing won all the money and the glory that his ambition coveted. IV.
His unusual customs, his excesses and adventures always accidental and agitated, Brindis de Salas rank among the extravagant and are souls; his Bohemian life was attractive and original. It was in Mertens, Belgium, that was within the choleest room of an elegant hotel "to leave a remembrance of his living in the land of Hideau." One morning a miner

from Fortune's lap called to see him. During this time the violinist was confined within the limits of penny. Eight hundred gold francs he was offered for a concert. One thousand, said Brindis; it was not accepted. The Cuban had not eaten anything that day; notwithstanding this, he refused the eight hundred francs. During the night Brindis silently entered the salon in search of his morning visitor and played to the ballet pieces with the famous concert pieces with the wonderful marvelous execution and disappeared during the storm of applause. This happened during the penultimate visit he made to the cradle of Sarmiento.
In his youth he lived three years as a field worker during harvest to win a country girl with whom he was infatuated. Some time in 1877 he rode as a passenger from Guanabaco to Regia in Cuba, was seated in the first-class coach. The Negroes had tried to train in the train conductor saw the Negro and tried to put him off the train. "I am Brindis de Salas," said the traveler, and all the passengers came to their feet and it was heard "Leave him alone, he is the great artist." Brindis always dressed with elegance and correctness. The author of "The Soul of Dogs" said he was Dr. Dumfries of full dogs, the four-in-hand collars. His death so strange, so miserable was the last gesture of his Bohemian and adventurer's spirit.
V.
BRINDIS made his name roll like an aureola through Fame across the continents with his violin, which was his soul, his life, his glory, harbors whose perfume consoled his native land and lifted on high the name of Cuba.
Because of this, we believe it is an act of reparation the bringing to Habana the remains of the immortal violinist, who is one of the purest rays of glory of the small circle of our art.

Mystery Masterpiece This Saturday at the Roosevelt
For one solid year "The Thirteenth Chair" mystified and baffled Broadway audiences at the Forty-eight Street Theatre. The legitimate stage production was produced by the author, Jayne L. Woolf, and directed for his mystery stories. The case included Margaret Weychel and Charles Lait in New York. It also ran in London at the Duke of York's Theatre.
"The Thirteenth Chair" will be shown at the Roosevelt for four days only, Saturday, the third Saturday. The dazzles and unirrational girl and music show, "Sweetie," with Nancy Carroll, Helen Kane and Jack Quile heading the cast, is to be the Roosevelt's feature attraction for the balance of the week—Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Jan. 22, 23 and 24. "Sweetie" will be the best all-talking, singing and dancing pictures that the sound screen has had.
Mrs. Walter Richardson Tells of Her Wonderful Trip to Australia
Mrs. Walter Richardson Tells of Her Wonderful Trip to Australia
---
THE Walter Richardson, who were married in London, an event which created quite a stir at the time, has exclusively spoken in the past, have been enjoying life in Australia and recently sent the subjoined inquiries to Browning, one of the European correspondents of this paper, with headquarters in London, England, which only to the people of the stage, but to other readers. Mrs. Richardson, a woman of high intelligence and interesting account of their trip to the Antilles—land of the famous kangaroo.
"It has been a long, long time since we've written you, but I must say it has been because 'Wally.' "Reggy hops in Australia. I think we should before we left London something about your intentions of possibly coming out to Australia some fine day. "Well, you will never regret it, I believe," Reggy said. "It is indeed most beautiful. Its natural scenery is gorgeous. It shall try and tell you about the time we arrived and from then on as much as possible. It was observed and really seen." "Wally," Reggy sylte and I arrived in Australia July 22 of this year and landed at Port Melbourne. We were pleased and pleasantly surprised to find that Australia had become settled at our hotel, of course, proceeded to have a look around. The city of Melbourne itself is very pretty indeed. Not a large city with a population of about 1 million or so, but sand. Melbourne's streets are very clean, traffic very poorly managed, shops, banks and buildings all typical American. Of course, as you know, this country is very new and therefore, has no monumental history.
"Its natural resources are beyond comparison, also its natural scenery, lovely rolling green hills stately divided by the river, and animals in their natural surroundings. They have a vegetable growth of all descriptions, and a very fascinating and delicately delicious fruit, the passion fruit, the 'Passion Fruit'; nothing to look at, but the surprise on the inside is a very pleasant one. I am taking the principal cities in Australia in the second place, and the 'Second place we saw is a much smaller city than Melbourne, the name being 'Adelaide', one mile square, with the Botanic Gardens as its backdrop. The harbor is located. Sydney is the name, and this is where we are located now.
"Sydney is the exact duplicate of Chicago, but the Australians will have a short of being anything but little New York, missing it. I suppose, since they will have it like that, is 'Harlem'. The Australians love to hear new-comers then that they have American ideas. They come from English stock but, because their mother country's neglect of them and America's foresight and interest have turned somewhat and real English ideas. Having traveled that one can see and understand why and how this is, and truly America has set the pace. Countries on this side, of traditional England, have adopted American ideas every phase of life and activity. Of course, it may not seem surprising to many, knowing what a tremendous long insight America has for some of the countries surprised to see native Americans and Egyptians driving Ford trucks as means of transporting merchandise. I suppose I expected them to cart it for me, but I saw a chewing and a contraption of wheels and a camels and camels with humps, or two very ferocious or bundle-looking animals with two long crooked horns chewing and enjoying a cuckold, but, may not sol. A Ford truck, if you please.
"Living conditions in Australia, according to statistical reports, are very poor. We are, as they say in England, 'Blimpy' but we not see it! Everything we buy here in the line of clothing we have to pay the duty that the buyers paid to bring us the goods, and all styles are from France, England and America. The 'Sun,' leading newspaper here, had a report of the new lodgings being refused lodgings in London. Of course, we know why London has drawn the color line, so I won't comment on that; but I suppose we may have been forced to see a picture of the reputation Negros precede us here given to the country
"Since we have been here we have heard related the whole thing in a nutshell. It was a frame-up by a paper syndicate known as the Truth, published every Sunday, and is published in its columns but divides into hundreds, grusome murder stories and, above all, it hates the Negro heartily."
"However, we have been most heartily received here and the people have certainly taken us, as it were, homes and made us feel perfectly at home. Night clubs, restaurants, hotels dancing, tear rooms, theatres and every place we were welcomed. We are stopping at the St. James Flats, on my way, and the manager, Mr. Luke, was very pleased. ever so pleased to have us, and we are very happy in every way. When we return to Paris we shall come over to London, as you must see 'Wally's scampoole, really a ham-up. Like in the countryside, we are audiences are the hardest to please in the civilized world; yet we haven't found it so here. I must say that we are enjoying Australia's hospitality and good more than I have in London. We are all filled up or all tables kicked sit!"
"We have been very much surprised, too, of their receiving us so cordially but; but isn't that as should be? Why can't it be so with all countries, and, too, all countries have their eyes on London and Paris; what those two great cities do the same with the faces of ice, which doesn't seem to matter along the color line where other countries are concerned. Now that, the
The New York Amsterdam News
big report of the Abbottis has come to Australia of what London has done to one of our richest Negroes, what they watch and see. I hardly think it will affect Australia for, though they are not as cultured here as in England as rich as America, she will always be for what he, as they are doing now.
"I know you are interested in beaches, and Australia is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, thus the beautiful harbor. There are nine beautiful spanders, just as she gave them to Australia. She has acted wisely in not destroying this natural scenery, but as far as building summer houses, Gleaming white sand, bright sunshine, azure blue sky and beautiful rippling blue water. There is only thing that spells the beaches here is the kind that loves the shallow water in summer. You see, it is just summer here now. It began in September and lasts until February, then from May and June; spring in July and August and lasts until September, then from the last of September to February it gets hotter and hotter. Having吉orous sunshine here, while she are having dreadful English weather,
"There is an unusual amount of interest here on the beaches in get-together very popular shade of sun-tan, as can be seen in Carlo. He is an article published in the Sunday edition of the Sun," it reads. This summer every small beach town must look truly chic must be sun-tanned. And, so great is the vogue for healthy bronze hair, that cost $100 a day. Goon, so far as to put certain dark popers on the market that will enable city girls to have that popular outfit, without which one will not be classed as among the very smartest.
"Here is a humorous experience I had a short time ago: I went into one of the largest department stores and bought two—to purchase a backless swim ones—by the saleslady the saleslady showed me the latest style and, continuing to look me over in an interesting way, finally said: "how much darker do you want to be? How much achieved just the right effect. Don't be afraid." The very dear, so I said: "Do you really think I've tanned enough?" Yes, she said. So then I replied that, that being, "Yes, because I would have a high skin tone. The while she chatted away with what shade I'd been so lucky to get, and 'Did it hurt?' and 'I wish I could, but I don't tan pretty like that.' 'Did their sun-tan on the beaches, their sun-tan on the beaches, question because of my having spoken the south of France and, having studded French quite a bit later, I have been speaking with somewhat of an say. However, I kidded her along by saying, "How much shade in France and at Brighton on the land and on my way over on the boat. Goeel! I'm having lots of fun. Everybody thinks I'm everything but a Nerdy one. All, shows you how dumb some people are, to have a great privilege to travel, and it is wonderful to know how to speak one or two languages besides English; but a matter of fact, Americans are very hard to learn, comes to languages, and should really time in learning to speak at least nine.
"We are returning to Paris soon, we do not bother about answering this letter, as we will be on our way before it, would reach us. 'Wally and I' will join in sending their very best wishes, and greetings along with mine for a happy and a wonderful New Year. I must mention before closing Mr. George Sorle, a Negro here, who is indeed a big success. He produces his own 297 acres of Australia's choice bush, a beautiful home, and has just coolies white friends, among them the Prime Minister. Everyone knows George. He has a gorgeous 1930 Stutz, has a wife, and they are wonderfully happy wife, and the woman who married white profitably. He has been remembered to all Londonites. He up to our flat constantly and they have been wonderful to us.
am sure I've chatted enough. Musk. Must be kisses of kisses to baby Haroldine and love to love to you both. Au revoir. Messlure and Madame Browning. Writes always. "MRS. WALTER RICHARDSON. "Sidney, Australia."
Baker Picture and Miller Revue at the Lafayette
Record audiences are flocking to the LaFayette Theatre this week to see the much-discussed picture, "The Siren of Tropes" in which Josephine Baker is featured and Irvin C. Miller's latest revue, which is being shown on the same program.
No picture within memory of the revue is housed so much discussion as "The Siren of Tropes," which is part of the picture was shown for the first time in America at the special midnight performance which Mayor Walker attested at the LaFayette Theatre some years ago. She was presented with enthusiastic applause, Mr. Schoenberg insisted upon certain changes and additions in both the picture and the music score and a showing at the LaFayette Theatre, pending these changes. Now that the picture and these changes have made, "The Siren of the Tropes" is one of the most interesting and unstinted of pictures and is receiving unstinted from all who are flocking to see it.
"The Siren of the Tropes" presents Josephine Baker at her very best—singing, dancing, acting in that charming and lively fashion in which made her the adored star of the Bergere in Paris and the toast of Europe.
It is difficult to say which part of the program the audience enjoys most—the stage or the screen show—for Ivry Miller's newest creation at the LaFayette theater this week, under the title of "Desires of the Week," certainly one or his finest achievement date. The show is a laughing hit from to finish, with an abundance of popy dancing, sweet music and dazzling scenic effects. The cast of "Desires of" includes Johnson LeLong, Sherman and Wiley, Matty Hite, Low Payton, the Six Dancers, a chorus of sixteen dancing girls and other able and popular players.

"Porgy" appeared in this little university city on Monday night, and although the students had not yet returned from the Christmas vacations, yet every seat was taken two days before the date of the performance. Extra chairs, ote, had to be brought into use. I had to perform here (I saw it twice in New York), but everybody has been commuting very favorably. Enclosed herewith are two clippings from the local papers. I think the item from the State Journal is especially good. In less than a month this community has given overwhelming acclaim to Paul Robeson and me. There are 5,000 of Porgy's company. (There are 500 300 occupies among the 56,000 townpeople).

Residents of Jamaica, L. I., Are Enjoying "Porgy"
The Theatre Guild of New York, noted for its artistic production of fine plays, presented "Porgy" at Verbena's Jacques Theatre for the entire season. Other Theatrical Guild productions are announced for the near future.
The trials and tribulations of Catfish Row, Charleston, South Carolina, presented under the name of "Porgy," a play by the more drama of the lowly Negroes remarkable success in the annals of the American stage. No play has ever been more successful, more completely than this, for the autumn. Du Bose and Dorothy Heyward, not only know the Negro and get his point of view but also have the literary and dramatic talents to transcribe that knowledge into a fascinating book and a majestic play.
"Porgy" might be described as a richly mounted colorful pageant of life among the Charleston Negroes. The stage with startling realism, while the inging of the large and unusual company—of the sixty-five players all but four are Negroes—has been eloquently praised on both sides of the Atlantic. In a bare, cheerless room where the body of a luckless darky awaits donations for its burial. As the spirituals of lamentation grow and swell in the faces of the mourners are mottled against a darky wall. The picture and its accompanying chants provide one of the most stirring moments the theatre has known in years. In 1985, the Columbian, the young Russo-American, directed the production for the Theatre Guild and immediately sprang to directorial eminence. He has made a number of successful successes. The authentic settings. Cleon Throckmorton, who journeyed to Charleston for first-hand studies. "Porgy" has played three separate engagements in New York, totaling five months in London and has created movies in a number of American cities.
In the big cast may be mentioned Frank Wilson, Rose McClendon, Ellen Wilson, Georgeette Harvey, Percy Verwayne, Keith Wesley Hill, Erskine Sanford, Leigh Whipner, Morris McKenny, Dorothy Paul, Richard Huey, Ella Minurn and the boys' band from the Jejkin Orphanage of Charleston.

Hunter Leads Comedy at The Alhambra Theatre
Eddie Hunter, who returned recently from a successful stay of two years in England, is the principal comedian in "Pepper and Salt" at the Alhambra Theatre this week.
Contrasting with Hunter's crisp, rapid-fire humor is Pigment Markhain's more leisurely type of drollery. Together, they constitute one of the most comical teams seen in a long time.
Fannie Hendrickson and Norman Astwood, who were abroad with Hunter, are also at the Alhambra, and the radiant Mercla Marquez lends her dazzling presence and talents. A comery skit between Pigment and Mandaolph brings what show people call a "lot" of applause, and the dancing girls have a spirited competition in individual stepping.
Eddie Hunter has a Lightning-speed litters mystery play which he brought from England, and which turns out to be just a bit of nonsense.
"Sins of the Father" provides Hilda Offley a tense emotional part as the widow of a governor of the state whose memory is being honored by the people by the unveiling of a memorial.
To his family his memory is clouded by the sinful seeds he has sown. His son, as played in the drama by Ted Woolsey, has been a Wild life secret led by the father. A pretty housemaid, played by Artie Cain, is supposed to be the daughter of the stableman, Thomas Moseley, but is really the child of the deceased governor's aunt, Martha Moseley. The blackmilling of the governor's widow and the misery of the afflicted son who finds he cannot marry the girl he loves, Josephine Campbell, are tragic factors in this drama of the story. Sally O'Neill and Ralph Graves are the stars of the merry picture feature "Bachelor's Paradise."

of Monte Blue in a startlingly dramatic underworld drama, "Skin Deep." Monte Blue, as the hard-boiled gangster, gave a characterization that long ago belonged to fam. In "Skin Deep" he plays a clever double role and the make-up used would do great credit to even the great Lon Chaney. "Murdered" the all-talking, murder mystery playing at the New Doughsh剧院 until Friday of this week, is a vivid story of a criminal's undying hatred of the man who sent him to prison. His reasoning did not tell him that murder was simply a servant of the public. He had a judge steward accountable. He had plotted a terrible revenge.
Drama Playlet of Divorce
At Alhambra Next Week
"The Road to Reno," a drama of divorce, with flushes of comedy, will be a unique and unusual offering at the Albambra next week, starting Monday. We will show wives and husbands we often do not appreciate what we have until somebody else wants it. How the marriage market collapses — the flight to Reno, the place of easy separations — the divorce court resorted to by wry husband and wives—are all seen in this play of domestic discord.
The musical comedy is of so speedy a pace that it is called "Track Fast." A pace familiar to the racing enthusiasm. Jack Horiz will be the star in the realistic picture feature, "Riders in the Law."

Rev. C. G. Wiley
ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 13—Punzel services for the Rev. C. G. Wiley, former president of Georgia State College and one time vice-president of Morris Brown College, were held Tuesday.
The minister and educator, who attended Columbia University in 1920, was the brother of James A. Wiley, past exiled rule of Manhattan, and the first survivor of his mother, a sister and wife. Interest was at Valdosta, Ga.

fierce; but behind his music is usually to be found the tragedy of a life.
One of Tschakowsky's characteristics was the fact that he was not attracted by the fair sex, but he consented finally to marriage after the persuasions of his friends, and the persistent proposals of Antonina. The two, however, never lived together.
Tschakowsky was in love with his music and his country and spent his days an apparition of art. In this he lived and had his being.
In 1891 Tschakowsky, at the invitation of Walter Damrosch, visited America and appeared in a series of festival concerts with which Carnegie Hall was opened. His last public appearance was in 1893 at Oxford, where he received the degree of doctor of music. He died in this same year at St. Petersburg.
Band, of which Alonzo P. Hardy is director, on Sunday afternoon in the auditorium of P. S. No. 139, Seventh avenue at 140th street. The concert was given under the auspices of the Harlem Mothers' Club, of which Mrs Minnie Wilkerson is president.
The solis were David Johnson Jr., violinist, who was accompanied by his father; and Miss Constance Berksteiner, soprano; and Ernest Ferguson, baritone; Julius Greene rombonist.
Edward Simons, newly elected exalted ruler of Manhattan Lodge, was the master of ceremonies.
Among the numbers played by the band were Sousa's "Washington Post" March, and Lake's "Song From the Old Folks."
The Forum of the St. James Press.
His nearest friends attribute his death to cholera, but it is generally believed that he committed suicide. Tschakowsky wrote six symphonies, seven symphonic poems, four suites, chamber and other music.

Taylor Gordon, tenor, sang at the Mecca Auditorium Friday evening for the benefit of the "Daily Workers." The very large audience was one of the most appreciative to which Mr. Gordon has sung. He sang "One of Mine by Novel Davies; his kind of Interpretation by Johnson's "Water Boy"; "Exhortation" by Will Marion Cook, and "Ole Man River" from "Show Boat." Edwin Coates accompanied admirably. Mr. Gordon, as you know, is the author of "Born to Be." a most interesting story of his life. Mr. Gordon, a few weeks ago, signed a year's contract with the radio corporation called WABC and he sings from this station every Saturday evening with the group known as the "Dixie Echoes." Mr. Gordon and Mr. Johnson recently gave concerts in Stamford, Conn, and Johnstown, Pa.

MUSIC
BY CORA GARY ILLIDGE.
Anent the Russian,
Tschaikowsky
The past week has been rather quiet so far as musical programs of interest, in the Harlem district, are concerned.
I am using, therefore, this space in using the program of the Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra, at the Metropolitan Opera House, Sunday afternoon. I am supplementing this with excerpts from the life of the most modern of the three composers whose music was played. Mozarts overture to the Magic Piece, Schumann's Pianoforcer Ossie Clark, "A Minor, played by the solos, Ossi Gabrilowitch and the well-known "Symphony Pathetique" of Teichalkyw constituted the program.
Pessessing a fondness and having an annual appreciation for this later composer as a master of the modern symphony, I am inspired to write something of him as I have read and been taught.
Peter Tschakowsky, Russian, called by some "a modern music lord," and by others "the modern master of Russian orchestral production," was born in 1840 at Votkins. His life is the record of a simple, severe technician of art. Clouded by an unfortunate and undoubted psychopathic temperament, he suffered greatly, shunned publicity, and was denied even the joys and comforts of a happy home.
In all characteristically Russian music there is a strong racial flavor, derived from the extremely fertile and varied folk music of the several divisions of the empire. This folk music is one of the most interesting types found in Europe; having instinctive melodic beauty, latent harmonic richness, and reckless rhythm individuality. In it are usually to be discerned two rather contradictory strains of feeling: one, sombre and even melancholic; the other, gay, unrestrained and wild. This emotional paradox supplies materials of extreme artistic value, which Tschalkowsky, without doubt, expresses in his music, just as he expresses his own unhappy life. He takes small comma, themes, and nugget-like motives, subjecting them to the most daring and scrutinizing treatment. He polishes, expands, shapes and develops his ideas, marvelous manner; and if the form is wavering, the decoration is always gorgeous.
He is said to have touched many of the masterminds of literature, notably Shakespeare, Dante, Goethe, Byron and Tolstoy, and is able to give in the most creative impressions of their poems. Tschalkovsky portrays the human soul in the convulsions of love, hate, joy and fear.
Give him one or two large human figures, give him a stirring situation, and then hark to the man as his dramatic impulse begins to have havoc. He is more to say to many Russian composer, and says it better. He is eminently nervous, modern and intense, and can be heroic, tender, bizarre and hugely

Radio Equipped Cars
With the close of the sixteenth annual automobile show last week, the 200,000 visitors who witnessed the display at Grand Central Palace soaked up the public's attention—the installation of a radio receiver on the dashboard of the ultra-modern car. The idea, which did not gain momentum until last year because of the technical difficulties encountered, was popular with the ardent radio listener. At the automobile show no less than a half dozen cars were equipped with modern radio receiver installations, and the broadcasting over a considerable distance. The installations were more or less standard, the receivers consisting of a sensitive radio frequency amplifier, not much unlike the design of the television.
In order to place the instrument where it would not interfere with the car mechanism and at the same time have it located out of sight, practically all of the installations have the receiver located behind the instrument located in the car door. Tuning is accomplished through a remote control dial mounted on the instrument board with volume and "on" and "off" controls. The tuning, coupling with the receiver in the cases where the set was not mounted directly behind the equipment panel, is accomplished mechanically by devices similar to a speedometer housing.
Antenna in the majority of instances is built in the framework of the top of the car. Loud speakers are mounted on the dashboard and are protected by the rear windshield while behind it is stowed away in a special container mounted under the floor boards of the front seat. The idea of radio installed in the automobile has long been considered by the manufacturer, but progress has been slow because of the technical difficulties in designing a receiver and installing it properly, so that it could be operated while the car is moving. It will beVOICE interference caused by the ignition system of the motor. These problems have been overcome. Some of the automobiles which are now equipped with a receiver are the Chrysler, Chrysler, Dodge and Reo. With these modern automobiles receivers it is possible to operate the set either while in motion or stationary and without interference from the spark plugs and batteries. Antenna is built in the top of the car and usually consists of several arrays of wire run backward and forward through the beams of the head. Grounding obtained by connection to 'the earth' is necessary.
Average cost of installing radio in the automobile ranges from $100 to $200. In cases where the set is supplied as standard accessory equipment the cost is slightly below that for installing the an old or non-standard equipped car.
Wrong Again
Amos 'n' Andy, blackface comedians, may be the highest paid radio entertainers and have the largest following of any broadcast 'artists', but recently a representative of the N. B. C. called a New York hotel and asked to make a video of the comedian's sorry, sir, the room clerk replied. "The boys may be very popular—I enjoy their programs myself—but this hotel never accepts Negro guests."

Deceased Practiced Here in Profession for 45 Years
Funeral services were held yesterday at St. Marks' M. E. Church for Dr. Jonah Emanuel, chitropodist, 252 West 100th street, who died on Saturday at the New York Hospital. The Rev. J. W. Robinson, pastor of St. Mark's conducted the service. Dr. Emanuel was born Sept. 9, 1658, at Bibb County, Ga., the son of Benham and Millie Emanuel. His parents soon moved to Arkansas, where he received his early education in the public schools. In 1880 they settled in Bedford, N. Y.
In 1882 he became a resident of New York City, where he attended evening high school. The youth was first employed at the Windsor Hotel, during which time he began the study of chropody. After completing the course he began practicing in 1884.
He had been practicing chropody forty-five years and was one of the organizers of the Pedic Society of the State of New York, and had the distinction of having been the first podiatrist honored with a life membership during active practice in this branch of medicine.
He was a chartered member, chaplaim and vice-president of the New York County Pedic Society as well as a life member of the National Association of Chiropodists. One of the first contributors to the Chropody School of America, Dr. Emanuel was a staunch supporter and an honorary clinician of the First Institute of Podiatry in New York City.
He was a life member of the National Business Men's League; a faithful member, class leader and steward of St. Mark's M. E. Church in New York City. Dr. Emanuel is survived by his wife, Mrs. Ella Emanuel; three daughters, Gussie, Blanche, and Louise, of New York; three brothers, Abraham and Christopher, both of White Plains; and Dr. William Emanuel, chiropodist, of Chicago.

UNITED HOSPITALS
GET $300,177.03
Forty-five business trades and professions in Greater New York have contributed $300,177.03 to the United Hospital Fund's golden anniversary campaign for $1,000,000, according to the annual report of committee chairmen.
These figures are in excess of funds on hand at the same time last year, but are still about $33,000 short of the 1928 total achieved by business trades and professions. The United Hospital Fund, consisting of fifty-nine New York hospitals, is seeking to raise $1,000,000 for the relief of the sick poor in New York. Each of the fund announced over $50,000 on hand and planned a two weeks' intensive period in the latter part of January to canvass certain fields to complete the designated amount if possible.
Elevator Operator Goes To Grand Jury in Fraud
Bethal Zechariah, 42, 56 West 127th street, was held in $1,000 bail for the Grand Jury when arraigned Saturday day before Magistrate Dodge in Harlem Court on a charge of grand have ceny.
Zechariah, who described himself as an elevator operator, was arraigned on the complaint of Mrs. Ellen Tolliver of 48 East 131st street. She told the magistrate that Zechariah represented himself to her as a minister of the gospel and that she gave him $110 for the purpose of securing a lease for her on premises at 18 East 131st street.
The appellant testified that, in stand of having the lease made out in her name as she directed him to do, Zechariah secured the lease in his own name and refused to return either the money or to have the lease transferred to her.
The annual financial campaign of the West 135th street branch, Y. M. C. A., will get under way next Tuesday and last until Feb. 3, it was announced yesterday.
Henry C. Parker, Sr., of the real estate firm of Nail and Parker, will head the drive to raise $5,000 in Harlem. The sum sought is only one-eighteenth of the total budget of the association, which was set at $92,000.

RENS ON WEST AFTER SUN
RENS ON WESTERN TRIP AFTER SUNDAY'S VICTORY
By FRANCIS.
Benny Borgerman and his Paterson American league team went down to defeat last Sunday night at the Renaissance Casino before the championship of Douglas' Renaissance champions by the score of 34 to 25. For the second time this season a quintet presented a defense that kept colorful opponents from scoring. 35. Borgerman's quintet included McElwain, Bollerman, Grody Roxbury, and the great Benny himself, all stars of the American League, and they gave the Rens all the power of stone-wall defense. As is customary with the Rens, their own defense was no open book either, and the visitors found it almost impossible to break through for needed points, so they had to re-
Paterson scored the first point when Bollarman caged one from mid-court, but Ricks came right back and evened the count for the Rens, and this was the signal for the Rens. But the very man going at top speed the Rens opened up a lead of 12 to 3, a situation that placed the visitors on the defensive. Fighting every inch of the way the Paterson team was able to gather a few baskets that brought their small team to a tie, ending 31 to 13 in favor of the Rens.
In the second frame the visitors gave as good as they received and played the Rens evenly through the assault, with three field goals. Both
BID FOR LEAD BY ALABAMA
Southern Conference Basketball Supremacy Aim of Teachers' College
MONTGOMERY, Ala., Jan. 6. — The Alabama State Teachers' College bid for Southern Conference basketball supremacy is destined to delight by their stellar performance in their opening game here tonight with the 24th Infantry of Fort Benning. The Teachers' finished loads of the game, including the guarding soldiers 32 to 15, before an enthusiastic crowd which crammed Dillard Gymnasium to its capacity to the initial game. It was the first of a two-game series that is to culminated on Tuesday afternoon. Coaches Lewis and Johnson sent in the first string lineup, that really took the soldiers' measure during the first point running a a dozen points to the visors. The Doughbys made only a field goal in half. The diminutive Frank Lewis at forward led in scoring with eight goals, the other forward Alexander the other forward followed with three field goals and one free throw. Wilson at center and Robinson and Martin at guard completed this very promising quintet of cages, which provided speed and shot with accuracy.
As the first half ended the score stood 21-7. As the second half started Coaches Lewis and Johnson elected to allow Murrey, Lash, Holt, Davis Williams and Coleman to get into the fray for the opening minutes. The final ten minutes saw the varsity rebound, and Coaches, while the best the visitors could eke out were four. Lewis and Alexander shared the individual spotlight, while He'd and Johnson were outstanding for the Invitational.

Coach Danny N. C., 40 to 13. The game was fast from start to finish, as excellent floor work was exhibited by the visitors, but their inability to find the cage position in the initial period St. Paul showed the determination of being the titular group of the evening and dropped three baskets within the first minute. Wells and Nearn, St. Paul's forward and center, respectively, played very well together, one caging 13 points and the other 12. The lanky center outjumped his opponent on the first play, and outstalled, outstanding, Haskett and Burke continued their streak of close guarding and not once during the game was there, an apertured space in their terrestrial running guard, played a great game, both on the offense and defense.

The New York Amsterdam News
Joe Williams Says
In the Standard Union.
NOTE with a feeling of asperity and no little indignation that my old pal, Thomas McArdle, in rating the ringmen of the various classes, couldn't find room for one Harry Smith, a young gent of color, in his middleweight classification. Thomas Wakeham, a Wakeham champion; carries on with Ace Hudkins and Rene Dae Vos and then slumps off with Len Harvey of England: Dave Shave, Harry Ebbets, Gorilla Jones, Vince Dunede, My Sullivan, and I, and I, and I, a tickle does he give Lil' Har Smith. It may be that those in back of Smith are not in concord with the powers that be, and they tell me that the man who is the best search of employment, but I don't think such things would influence the judgment of Thomas.
Still, I know that Thomas is astute in matters fistic, one of the smartest of the ringmen, that Thomas goes all over and misses little through his silver-rimmed specs in quest of new fistie faces. How he overlooks Smith, therefore, is something of a mystery that I believe be explained forthwith, if not sooner.
For Harry has everything. He is a boxer and a hitter. Those who saw his punch Pal Silvers out of time, dear old, dead London, will bear me out. This is not offered in complaint of Thomas' entire rating of the middle-grade about readiness for all, champion included. Indeed I wouldn't put Harry over Hudkins or De Vos, but he certainly should be rated above the others in his record alone calls for attention. It's probably the best itemized list of victories any ringman has offered up, but it doesn't include lambed hercules in several seasons. Moreover, it crammed from top to bottom with knockouts. I think it could be said in safety that 75 per cent of opponents have been won via K. O. Ide. All this, of course, may be a bit too enthusiastic in general tone, but certainly Smith belongs in the first five.
In any event he has more than carried the chance to show his skills in the garden. He would do well for himself and the Garden if he gave Smith the opportunity. Ratings always can be revised. Usually they are, sooner or later.
"Y" Jrs. Defeat Chelsions
The Chelsions were taken into camp by the "Y" Juniors Saturday night in the 135th St. Y. M. C. A gym. The "Y" Juniors started the fireworks with a long field goal by Chavis. Moore was high scorer for the game, and we were low scattering the gallery in unproar. Easter, captain of the Juniors, was high scorer of the game contributing a total of 14 points.
After piling in a large score the juniors settled down to passing and scoring the final touchdown. Jackie Bourne, the versatile guard, sprained his leg, but scored two goals as his contribution. The team won the fourth and tenth victory against two defeats and the fifth consecutive triumph of the "boys" on Saturday night. the "T" Juniors engage the fastest junior aggregations in the city.

ATLANTIC CITY FIVE VICTORIOUS
Bordentown. Falls Before Seasiders' Attack in Double Header
BORDENTOWN, Jan. 11—The Big "Y" Five of Arkansas City opened its 33rd season in auspicious fashion by performing the difficult feat of defeating a Bordentown quintet on its way to the "Y" Tigers of Atlantic City, the junior champions of 1929, added more glory to the [salesman] record by submerging the [liverworms] Curtis Bordentown in the fighting game. The varsity game started at a terrific clip, with the schoolboys gaming a seven point lead at the end of the first quintet to win, however, and with Durant, elongated center, leading the attack, pulled up to the game at 10 all as the first half ended. Two points separated the game, but go, but Allen and Lambert sneaked away from the guards to drop in a goal apiece and the sesilea boys won 24-19. For the Wildcats, Hilton and Curtis out of fourteen goals apiece, while Durant led the "Y" in the scoring column. A lamentable weakness in four shooting was the undoing of the Bordentown out of fourteen goals apiece, while Durant led the "Y" in the scoring column. A lamentable weakness in four shooting was the undoing of the Bordentown out of fourteen goals apiece, while the schoolboys succeeded in tallying only five.
The Cubs showed even worse on the foul line! for had they made even one-third of their foul tries they were on the defensive margin. A last minute rally with "Finky" Morse leading in shooting very nearly gave them victory over their clever opponents. It was Davis, who was responsible for four goals which awarded the champs the game. In the interm between the two games the fans were treated to a celebration from the Has-Bees, and the men teachers of Philadelphia, the Pedagogues. The Bordentown-Trenton combination proved the skiltright, for they won easily from the professional college team by a score of 14. Summary junior game: Bordentown Cubs. Tigers. G. Williams. f. 4.

SOLDIERS NO MATCH FOR ALA.
MONTGOMERY, Ala., Jan. 7. —The Alabama State Teachers' quintet, playing the second of a two-game series with the 24th Infantry, gave the soldiers boy a decisive drubbing, 38 to 14, here this afternoon in Dillard Gymnasium. The Infantrymen were also defeated the previous night by an equally decisive score. They were not match for the Hornet cagars, who worked with uncanny precision.
Frank Lewis and Louis Alexander at the forward positions found difficulty in getting going in the first half but, by a brilliant spur, led the team in piling the large number of tallies against the soldiers. Robinson and Williams occupied the guards, who soon relieved by Hot and Martin, the former throwing two foul shots and the latter drubbing almost the entire length of the floor to make sure the crowd amused as they tactfully handled the ball and kept the doughbys quite on the alert and. for the most part, on the floor trying to dope out where it
The soldiers showed quite an improvement over Monday's game, but the teachers outclassed them in the department of play. However, with more practice they should be quite a deal of trouble to all aspirants to the Conference crown. The team's star for the soldiers, while Lewis and Alexander starred for State.

West Point Cavalry Quint Still Going Strong
HARRY SMITH HAILED AS NEW 'DARK MENACE' OF FISTIANA
There is a new "dark menace" in汀芮, Frank Cassale, writing in *Inkman*, and the new "dark menace" in Overnight Harry Smith, a young warrior of Harlem, has arisen seriously threaten Nordic supremacy in the glamorous middleweight division. In exactly sixteen seconds of the fifth round Smith scored a stirring victory over the sixteen of his bore, at the Broadway sporting Club Tuesday night, and hereby opened the path to a ticular moment with Champion Mickey Maker. Once before Silvers' head was buried in resin dust though the pain of his uninominally in Newark about two years ago—but never in Pal's collisional career was be subjected to the pain of his own which effected his downfall.
Pal's finish was as pathetic as it was unexpected. He was "our" standout, a man in a former boxer and highly double ring official, waved Smith to his corner in token of victory. The comeback was a triumph, but the crashes against Silvers jaw and promoted the arbiter's renderment rendered Pal entirely bereft of his senses, the courage enough to under him. Indeed, it was an unusual incident. A terrific left hook that found its way in the region of Silvers heart early in the fourth stanza rounded the beginning of Pal's flat fist. He doubled up under the grip of his short, bolting left hook. A half minute later Smith forced Pal to the rope, and there pole-axe him with a short, bolting left hook. Pal fell flat, with his bloody head hanging over the bottom rope. He turned over, looked up at Referee John, and before Smith could land another solid smash the bell rang, slaving Silvers.

NEW JERSEY TO GIVE KID CHOCOLATE CUP Harry Smith Making 'Em Sit Up and Take Notice
Showed Courage
Pal's seconds used restoratives in an attempt to drive the cobwebs from the victims came out courageously for the fatal stanza, but he was terribly weak, with practically no strength. Smith then waded into Pal, and quickly ended their pugilistic argument. Referee Dorman's interaction, with the lord lodged a feeble sort of protest, drew much praise from the 3,000 spectators. He couldn't circumstances. Another punch might have seriously injured Silvers. Smith is a remarkable boxer and a master of timing of blows and judgment of distance were perfect. After the third round, when Silvers managed to rock the opponent, Smith took the situation in hand and his superiority became distinctly evident.
Dimmed Hopes.
Silvers' decisive defeat has dimmed the hopes of his followers who enter on the way to a bout with Champion Mickey Walker. Prior to last Tuesday night's happenings Silver had to face the toughest fights in his comeback campaign since Freddie Polo stiffened him. Lew Feldman outpointed Nick De Salva in the first round. De Salva, who served as a substitute after the commission refused to allow Benny Tell to fight before the last full distance through the process of holding and clinching at every opportunity. De Salva entered the final round on his feet at the finish, and he succeeded. Johnny Kreiger received the verbiage in another ten-around. Williams was floored in the ninth for the count of eight; he claimed he had been hit twice in another ten-around. Williams was floored in the ninth for the count of eight; he claimed he had been hit twice in another ten-around. Cecil Como punched his way to a ten-round win over Connie Homes, a sub for Ruby Greenberg, in the final round, receiving amounts to about $3,100.
Wilberforce Cagers Win
From Fast Phil Deltas
WILBERFORCE, Ohio. Jan. 9.—The Wilberforce University quintet invaded the home town of the Lucas brothers, Eaton, Ohio, and trumped over the Phil Delmas, fast white semifinalist. So effective was the guarding of both teams that only a few passing combinations scored most of the points. The game ended from long range at different angles. The first half ended with the count 11 all; with only four seconds to play the first overtime period. Clark and Ashe were removed from the game for personal fouls and Eaton was off time period, with a minute to time period, with a minute to Gibbs was fouled and made the winning basket with a 30-29 final score.

Carlton "Big Five" to Meet Collegeians Feb. 6.
A game that will have the greatest bearing on who's who. In amateur basketball when those two giants of the courts, the Carlton "Big Five" and the famous New York Collegefans called them "Big Fives," this game brings together the two outstanding amateur basketball teams in New York and Brooklyn and a former lover of basketball can afford to miss. It has been some time since the Carlton was played at Labor Lycum and this brings to mind the many thrilling games on this court some years ago. It has been some time since the famous Carlton "Lightning Five" has all laid aside their basketball tops, but this year's Carlton team is represented the "X."

At the Olympic club in Harlem last Saturday night canada Lee came into his own when he scored a tech-ing of the fifth round over Bill Albright, Phoenix, Ariz. Apparring in the main bout at the local club, Lee proved to his admirers that under the efficient coach of the team he is also the manager of Black Bill and the sensational Kid Chocolate, he is coming into his own now that he is getting a better opportunity of showcasing his skills. Judges would only stop taking the decision away from Lee when it is so evident to those with a knowledge of the game that he has won, he would be most prosperous year in his career.
The new Cuban threat, Black Bill, appeared in the semi-final against Fred Lattanzio of the Bronx, and put together a team of sixations of the manly sport against his opponent.

People of New Jersey to Pay Tribute to Prowess Of Popular Cuban Sensation at the Orange Armory
All over New York they have gone out of their way to hape praise upon Kid Chocolate, the biggest kid in the world today, and the modest little gladiator; who has helped to refresh the memory of those who once read of the illustrious Cubans who so unselfishly fought for the liberation from the yoke of Spanish misrule, and he has been wildly applauded, and the moment his presence becomes known at the casinos it is the signal for another Negro fighter in the midst of the wild and now New Jersey is putting in her claim for the opportunity of paying a silver made for the presentation of a silver made for the presentation of the little uncrowned champion. Through the management of the Tuxedo Athletic Club arrangements of the Tuxedo Athletic Club made for the presentation of a silver made for the presentation of the night of Feb. 12, Lincoln's Birthday night, at the Orange ArmyBASE when society, fight and backstory will allow it to witness an event that will bring together the teams of the Tuxedo Club against opponents that have looked like the best occupied by the men under

THE stand of the U. S. L. T. A. in barring Reggie Weir. Gerald F. Norman, Jr., and Louis Lackland from recent National Junior Indoor team is entirely biological and highly unfaith. Those familiar with the history of the team are numerous instances of Negroes competing with white, white, without black.

Weir is as cultured, and has been as carefully reared by educated and cultured parents as any one of the entrants in the junior indoor championships. His father is a college man and an educator, the composer of national reputation. Weir, Sr. studied in the best conservatories and Europe, and has traveled extensively, being received in the highest artistic circles. Mrs. Weir is also well educated, and of a cultured appearance and manner.
Young Weir's manners are almost continental in their perfection, and he is both dashing and somde youngster of light complexion and easily mistaken for a member of the prestigious Mediterranean white races. He is popular at City College and was equally popular in his High School days. He is accustomed to athletic soils and contacts with his schoolmates, and he is often playing with the Duke of York or Richards. Clark also competed in persons of the white race who were involved in tournaments including the Canadian tournament. His entry has also been accepted for
For a number of years Welr has been leading white professionals under the direct tutelage of Allen Behr, well known at Forest Hills and under the direct tutelage of Mr. Behr is of the opinion that the stand of the U. S. L. T. A is based that had Reggle's entry been accepted, there would have been no doubt of his finishing in the finals at last. Last year the young colored star spent four months in France, playing with the cream of French junjels, defeating most of them and playing against the younger number of the French junjels. French professionals rated him as the potential equal of Junior Coen, the junior number of the American Davis Cup Squad. Welr has competed as a member of the national team as C. C. N. Y.'s best player, meeting and defeating many of the entrants in the Indoor Championships. These entrants are intercollegiate competitor and defeating against Welr in intercolastic or intercollegiate competitor comfortable, so why should the U. S. L. T. A. be so apprehensive of possibility and so solicitive for Welr?
Welr is not the first colored tennis player of rank to enter into international tournaments as players. The most noteworthy instance is that of B. M. Clark of Jamatan, who won the forty-many matches as the champion of the two years ago competed in the Jamaican Championships in which H. H. Clark was the champion and his petitor, His Royal Highness played several practice matches against Clark in singles and with each of his opponents in doubles. Surely, if the third gentleman of the British Empire, surpassed the Frenchman of Wales, did not lose ease by competing with a member of the colored race, how could a miscellaneous college tennis player of poor foreign parentage, be

Not once has the little Cuban fighters ever appeared at events staged by behalf of charity in this city, and New Jersey feels that she will go New York one day to apply her application not only for the spinner man in which Chocolate has fought his battles, but for the kind spirit of Cubans, for the kindness pleased to do whatever he could in behalf of his own people in this country.
The Cuban is slated for a big battle in Cuba this month, after which he plans to return to the United States to carry out the campaign which has brought great wealth. The Orange Armory has been the scene of some of the biggest and most important social and political events in the eastern part of the United
ennis Color Line
The U. S. L. T. A. apparently is attempting to pose as an exponent of atrism, deverifying prejudice and basing its stand on precedent and a solicitude for the best interests of the colored tennis players.
Marion Yurdin, writing in a recent issue of the Daily Mirror under the caption of "School Sports," says: "Therefore, to save him (the colored tennis player) further embarrassment, the association has barred all colored players on the pretext, 'it has not been the custom to admit them.' The entry of Reggie Weir, a colored youth from City College, caused the direct ban in this tournament. He might win, or at least place, with the first ten junior players of the country. With this standing he would have to be recognized all over as a senior entrant also. This would imply his playing in the major open tournaments and over what is known in the game as 'Grand Circuit.' This round of tilts throughout the country is a schedule of invitation tourneys at the financial clubs in the land. A player of Weir's standing is entitled to an invitation. He also certifies are willing to accord him the recognition, but should they accept he would be uncomfortable during his stay."
Marion Yurdin attempts to excuse the U.S. L.T. A. by attributing the bar to a desire to protect the feelings of young Weir. We believe that Weir would be no more than a

degraded by meeting Weir on the courts.
Mr. Clark also competed against Vincent Richards, Voshell, Throckmorton and other American stars in several Jamaican tournaments. Has the social standing of the great Richards been affected thereby? And it is not on record that Mr. Clark felt at all "uncomfortable" when playing with the Duke of York or Vincent Richards. Clark also competed in several Canadian tournaments including the Canadian Championships. His entry has also been accepted for Wimbledon.
In American intercollegiate circles, several Negroes have made their way to the University of Chicago tennis team, of which the famous George Lott and Hudlin are personal friends. Lott and Hudlin states that he never felt anything but at home and welcome, whether playful or in university tournaments or engaging in intercollegiate competition.
William Mitchell in 1920 and 1921 was the Springfield College tennis team and team Harvard and Princeton. Even the notoriously prejudiced Princetonians team team in 1916 and 1917. Thomas Young colored star, Gayle, another colored student at Springfield, was a member of the team in 1916 and 1917. 1929 Varsity tennis team of Ohio University. A. Graham was a memoirist, freshman tennis team in 1927 and Scott plays No. 1 on the Upsala College Varsity team. Several other players in their lineup at different times.
In interscholastic circles, Gerald F. Norman, Jr., is outstanding as captain of the Flushing High School tennis team. Herman Marrow was captain of Batten High School of Elizabeth in 1929. His brother Eli's worth Marrow is a member of the team at the same school. Solomon Worde of Elizabeth was also a member of Batten in 1926. Ernest Ashe was for three years a member of the tennis team of Latin High School of Philadelphia, and competed in several boys' and junior tournaments held at the Germantown Country Club. Louis Lackland is a member of the tennis team of the Newark Prep School, and was formerly a member of the tennis squad at East Orange High School. Douglas Turner of Chicago, Ill. was two years captain of the High School team, winning the Chicago Interscholastic title in singles, and later was crowned Illinois State Interscholastic Champion.

States, and it is announced on the best of authority that no stone is being left unturned by the Tuxedo Club to make the night one of the biggest. Aside from the joy which it will give New Jersey to formally welcome Chocolate and present him with the token of its esteem, it will be with an much pleasure that the little Club will be seen in the confines of the famous mosquito to show his appreciation on the night of Feb. 12 for the warm manner in which he has been welcomed everywhere.
Chocolate will be accompanied to New Jersey for the big event by Black Bill, the other little Cuban star, who bids fair to cop a crown before he returns to the land of sunshine. Bill won his fight hands down at the Olympian Club. Saturday night and is again enjoying that popularity which was his early in his appearance at the fight clubs of Greater New York. J. Richard Lee, heroic warrior who dared to question the supremacy of the "Czar of Newark" in a battle from which Lee returned with the title of "Richard, the Lion. Hearred," continues to the quarrel on the athletics across the Hudson, and will save the support of some of the leading people of Newark and the Oranges in staging the big affair on Lincoln's Birthday night.
with credit. Solomon Worle has been for three years the Public Park manager of the Detroit Public Jersey, being the only colored competitor in a field of more than 123 players. The three players have competed each year in the annual Essex County, N. J., Park Tournament, many playing in doubles. The team has been the runner up several times in the Public Park Tournament in Detroit. The Hinton brothers of Englewood have frequently made a strong showing in the Public Park Tournament. Bergen and Pascock counties, New Jersey, Dr. J. Vaughan and A. E. Flourmey have competed several times in the Public Park Tournament. Camden, N. J., Louis Lackland won the Easy Orange, N. J., Public Park title in the West, Bunter and Richardson, two colored players of Detroit, have reached the semi-finals and Detroit, Public Park Tournaments.
A colored doubles team composed of Gerald F. Norman, Sr., and Eugene K. Jones won the Sectional Championships of Brooklyn and Queens, and were finalists in the playoff for the city title in 1925. The winner of the finals was selected to represent New York in the National Public Park Tournament. Gerald F. Norman, Sr., is the father of the young Norman who was one of the boys who were from the Unions. Gerald F. Norman, Sr., is also the tennis coach of Bryant High School team of Plushing, N. Y., which is composed entirely of white boys.
Mrs. E. Conick and several other young colored women played in the Central Park Championships in N. Y. City two or three years ago. With a young white woman as partner, Mrs. Conick captured the doubles championship. Another colored girl whose name I do not remember won the women's singles title in the Central Park Tournament about four years ago.
Throughout the North, East and West, colored and white players compete on even terms in the Public Parks, and we have yet to learn of that uncomfortable feeling of which the U.S.L.T.A. seems to be.
In 1929 the Park Commission of Chicago held an Open Tournament that members of all races were welcome. A special effort was made to the location of the park in which the tournament was held, colored players were in the main field, and the Filipinos also competed. The tournament was won by a Filipino, with a colored player a runner up.
The tournament will also show that the entry of one colored player was accepted by the National Indoor Games, and was placed in the Worcester Word of Elizabeth, paid his fee, and was placed in the draw, losing all claims of the U. S. L. T. A. were very solicitous in informing Mr. Worde and his sponsor, the veteran Dean C. H. Worde, in his playing so long as he was in good standing with a club, association or school holding membership in the
Many white players of note have taken the opportunity and have tutored them in the game. Dean Mathey has been the advisor and sponsor of the colored player of Princeton, N. J. Louis coached by Weiler Evans, Kenneth Appel and the international, John Wood, a well known professional, have been responsible for the efficiency of colored players New York City.
We believe that ample precedent has been established to show the inconsistency of the position taken by the U.S. L.T.A. Colored players have competed in interscholastic, intercollegiate, and Public Park tournaments without friction. Can it be that the upper circles of tennis as represented by the U.S. L.T.A. are more filled with bigotry and prejudice than the circles in which Negroes have previously been freely admitted? Is the Duke of York wrong? Can the various colleges and High Schools of the country be wrong? Can the tennis players of France be misled? Can Allen Behr, Charles Wood, Weller Evans, Kenneth Appel, John Van-Ryn and Dean Mathey be fooled, while the mighty U.S. L.T.A. is in fallible? For the Duke, played against Clark, a black man; Behr trained the much feared Reggie Weir; Mathey encouraged and sponsored the Worlds Brothers, while Van-Ryn, Evans and Appel are responsible for the progress of Lackland.
The U. S. L. T. A. must be aware of all of the facts mentioned by us in this reason for barring Welr has not been given publicity. A champion or high ranking tennis player has a certain level of skill, and also furnished a good "copy" for the sporting pages. A tennis reputation is a stepping stone to business success and social progress. Hotels and restaurants offer a good or entertaining a tennis star so as to

NIGHT BASEBALL TO BE INAUGURATED IN THE WEST
KANSAS CITY. Mo., Jan. 8. By A. N. P.)-Baseball's fans of the eastern section will be stunned by the Western section. Wilkinson, owner of the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro National League, that beginning with the 1930 season, will be a new and novel baseball system whereby baseball games would be played in the smaller towns of the Missouri and Kansas at night.
Mr. Wilkinson, who has been in baseball and other sports for the past decade, once with night athletic events and proposes to use one of the best lightning-cording to present plans the lights will flood the playing field to the extent that the entire playing will be covered. The greatest difficulty will be experienced with high-fly balls which can be given point, but it is thought that the game will be played under slightly changed rules which will take care of such batted balls, thus giving each team an even break on such plays. The lighting system built trucks and will be set up at angles from two sections of the playing field, well outside the range of the activities of the field.
Explaining the reason for adopting this method Mr. Wilkinson said: "In traveling with baseball clubs through the country, I found that hundreds of people years, I found that hundreds of people years."

ple who wanted to see baseball games could not on account of working conditions get off until after dark. I have often thought of some remedy for this and I have figured out that it would be a problem I figured that it would allow these ardent baseball fans who have heretofore been denied the privilege to chance to do so at a time that their work would permit. I am well aware that it does not permit the exact brand of ball as played ordinarily, but with the rules under which it will be played in the regular daytime game." Night baseball will be quite different and already many of the towns in which my club has played in recent years have contracted for games to the Monarchs in Nebraska cities where the Monarchs are well known have indicated that they would like to contract for games at night.

Representative Audience Hear Students' Debate
A large and representative audience attended the debate between the Students' Literary & Debating League and Manhattan at Christ Church Cathedral last Sunday afternoon. The members of Excelsior, who had the affirmative, were declared the winners, and the was, "Should Negroes of the present generation stress Industrial Education more than Higher Education?" The debaters for the affirmative, Leah Totten and Alberto R. Senior. The negative was represented by Miss Jewell Burnett, Wesley MacD. Holder and Thelma Heron. The debaters were represented by the affirmative and Wesley MacD. Holder for the negative. The judges were; Dr. Courtney Graves and H. J. Dangerfield. Secretary Carlton Branch, Y. M. C. A. Both teams put up a high-class debate and were it not for a technically involving definition of terms. The students' reasons would believe that the Student's would believe
What is Industrial Education and what is Higher Education? The League in its argument maintained that what booker T. Washington did, the use of the hands; and that Higher Education did not necessarily mean the professions of law, medicine and the ministry; a thorough study of the physical, the pure and applied, which gives one mastery over the forces of nature; the social sciences, sociology, economics and politics, also engineering and architecture; and also where the curricula of Hampton and Tuskegee have been changed to include subjects of Higher Education, which proved the fact that the theory of booker T.

In his discussion of the "Challenge of the Present Opportunity for Racial Development and the African Life," every right and act that to make up our great country and fidelity of thought concerning the final adjustment of a just cause were made by Bishop Kyles, as kind as by Bishop Kyles. In this address the Bishop, speaking of the finer traits and the inherent capacity of the American Negro for high spiritual development and spiritual development said: "His ideals of Christian democracy in government, are evidences of final triumph over every barrier set against him. So much has been said about him. So much has been learned andquent results and so often have we failed to see any good come to Negroes for their loyalty that we frequently are in despair, when we think upon us because we were in the war for our country.
Bishop Kyles has the finer angels

future, said he.

of the Negro to be a part of a brand new day. It was a day of vision and hope—a day in which there is a corral of our conversations regarding our convictions which count for most in the building of character. It ushered in the day of opportunity for organization of all processes of the race and the concentration accomplishment; an opportunity for the adjustment of all questions affecting inter-racial relations and policy bond enough in scope to admit all people; an American good-will to all people. The address showed the Bishop to be well acquainted with every critical problem which offers a challenge to people who will and must intensify activities in the prosecution of the movements and principles that must operate to bring about a universal brotherhood and to assure each group the other's sincerity in righteousness.
Bishop Kyles paid high tribute to the National Association for the Adoption organization has served for these several years as the pulse of discontent with injustice against the oppressed Negro, and which has done much to effect a positive action and great movements toward better understanding and treatment for Negroes than any single organization. Great churchman that he is, the Bishop left no doubt in the minds of his audience about the part the church has played in the righteous sentiment and creating a dominant racial thought. He made a plea for the continuation of this work, and he is the highest to lowest is able to think, pray and work for a universal dominant racial attitude toward and for those things which are rightfully the highest to lowest are desired by custom and law.

FLUSHING -- CORONA
A Schomburg Series
BY Romeo L. Dougherty.
OLD-TIMES in Brooklyn will be taken on a journey down "Memory Lane" soon, while younger generation and newcomers to the "City of Churches" will welcome the opportunity to visit the past in the city where they live in the next few weeks, when Mr. Arthur Schomburg contributes a series of articles to the Brooklyn and Long Island News and the Negroes of the past and those of yesteryear and possibly today, adding to the advancement of our people here.
Brooklyn, a city today boasting of seven schools, sends a fertile field for so gifted a pen as that wielded by the learned Spanish-American, who has for a long time shared the joys and sorrows of his life, it said to his everlasting credit that all during his life here he has been moved with a great desire to contribute to the progress of his people, not only in the United States, but all over the world.
A mind broadened by travel and extensive reading, Schomburg has men carried away with a deep desire for the benefit and inspiration of his people the work of Negroes of an age. Negroes who would remain untainted in love, which found him investing thousands of dollars in books and old manuscripts disclosing the glorious story of the Negroes of the world. When his collection of valuable books and documents were transferred from his home to the Public Library, he was moved to Lenox avenue, in Manhattan, it was for day Arthur Schomburg, for he was glad he had lived long enough to have great appreciation for the work he had done.
The monetary considerations of the beloved was far below the worth of the collection, to say nothing of the time and effort which he had placed into the gathering of the priceless evils received for knowledge. A resident of Brooklyn, more than a quarter of a century, the burg home on Pulaski street has been a mecca for some of the leading minds of America, Europe, Asia and empire, while he will not be asked to emply himself in giving a learned dissertation on the Negro, the editor of the Brooklyn and Long Island Page feels that anything from the pen of such as Margaret relating to that era in which living Stewart, T. Thomas Fortune and such other men, will carry interest.

readers to warrant the use of the space utilized in telling of one of the outstanding plans of this paper for the New Year. Those without a knowledge of Mr. Schomburg will get a slight insight into the trend of his thought where the race is concerned by his gracious gesture of friendship to this publication, a translation from the Spanish of articles upon a musician whose worth lent lent attention to Negroes in South and Central America and the West Indies appear in amusement pages of the current issue.
Retiring with a pension after twenty-four years of faithful service in a job four years of useful work which called for the full use of his position made brilliant by his research.

all the best lands, all the diamond and copper mines and rubber plantations, and controlling all the Government) for the white people. He shows to what an extent a rationalizing mind can even cheat itself: he would make himself believe that he could Africanize because he likes the African blades; that he could bequent and sentimental about the ability of the blacks to sing and dance and have a good time and to "submit to adversity," declaring very indelicately that "the black African is the most patient animal on earthness to the ass." This bold simile of the Negro and the ass did not seem to Robert Rusksen Moten of Tuskegee, who near the General and who politely pre-tested against that remark before the close of the meeting.
The General said that the African system of society is essentially socialistic, while the European is individualistic, and that the African style of society ought to be preserved—always emphasizing "for the African." He gave no intimation of how this could be done in the face of the penetration and control by European industrialism and commercial interests. The only method he could advocate for accomplishing this was to segregate the natives into reservations and draw on them at the will of the whites for cheap and practically uneducated labor. If never occurred to him to possess the knowledge under the sun to preserve "the African system" of tribal relations (of community in land and cattle and other possessions) would be by keeping the Europeans out of Africa. If Europeans go to Africa and own its resources and control its Government, the only thing for the African to do is to adopt the European system or perish.

$500,000 Project Begins February
Plans for a $500,000 recreation project for Harlem were being rushed to completion yesterday as the Lakeland Recreation Centre, Inc., through who president, George M. Dickerson, will be the election of John E. Nall of the new firm of M. & Parker to the board of directors. All the other officers of the corporation are white. One other director will be named shortly, cording to Mr. Dickerson, who stated that ground will be broken on 1462 street near Lenox avenue on February 1. The centre is expected to be finished May 1.
One of the principal features of the project be a swimming pool with provisions children and a sand beach, according to the president, who is head of the Central Securities Corporation. The pool will be 200 by 70 feet and the beach will be 160 by 100 feet.
Included in the plans is an administration building with restaurants and concessions and a roof garden overlooking the pool. Another building building 65 by 100 will be used as a restaurant and hall for all types of social fun activities. It will not be a company-operated camp hall in competition with existing one Mr. Dickerson said. The centre will have a frontage of 550 feet and will be 100 feet deep. The entire project will have a capacity of 5,000 persons, with the patron distributed on the beach. in the restaurant, community hall, garden, handball courts and promades. The pool will have a capacity of 620,000 gallons of water, which will be distributed to the city system, chlorinated and filtered corporation holding 51 per cent of the remaining 41 per cent is being offered to the public. Completion of the plans will not rest upon the sihowever, according to Mr. Dickerson.
Garage Worker Changed With Aiding in Holdus
olas Zind, white, 1518 Madison a nue.
Policeman Mansfield of the Ease 104th street station saw the holdin in progress and arrested the two men, one of whom was armed. I their possession was found 5718 which they had just stolen from the cafe. The two men gave their names a William Kelly, 23, 145 West 123rd street, and William Jarrick 19, 129th street. They are alleged to have confessed that they engineered three other restaurant holdups.
Allen, who is employed in a garage at 129th street and Madison avenue, was arrested when the two men told police that he had sold the revolver for $13, and has loaned the automobile which they used to make their escape. Allen denied the charge. The three were held without had for a further hearing when arranged before Magistrate Dodge in Harlem Court.
Jersey Man Arrested on Family Desertion Charge
Charged with deserting his wife and two small children in Jersey City, Albert Brown, 28, 100 West 139th street, was remanded for thirty days in the Tombs yesterday by the judge.

HEAR ANNUAL SERMON

Members of Hiram Grand Lodge were in attendance. Annie Bordert was mistress of ceremonies. Mary Bordert was mistress of Toppin, grand master; Mary D. James, grand secretary;
and the economic system would have something to do with the standardization of menkind. In short, that on "African culture" cannot thrive if dominated absolutely by European government and wage-slavey. How can we industrialize the African and at the same time preserve his tribal culture? Negroes who slave long hours in the white man's mines will not be much "sitting and dancing" but will not be much native happiness. If the women and children are shouted in pounds while the father is far away in the industrial capacity of the white world. Even the black native reputed ass-like patience might ultimately break under that burden.
But the ex-priest showed the greatest lack of cander and of sinfulness of his ground when members of the audience asked questions about this peculiar social situation, and about his extraordinary proposals for its solution. He tries to answer all questions by "yes" or "no," and generally says yes when it should be no. When asked whether a colored American can go to South Africa, buy land and make his home, he simply replies: "Yes."
Having been the head of that country he must know that it is almost impossible for a Negro bishop in the South Africa for a limited period of time to work, and practically impossible for Negro to get in even for a brief tourist. It short, unqualified "No" from the General would have at least won him the respect of certain people in the audience. When asked whether the tribal system could be maintained under European political and commercial domination, he replied:
"Yes, it is being done," although he had just shown in his principal address (when he was trying to give reasons for his segregation policies) that he was totally disorganized and disrupted by contacts with the European system. Most of his answers to very discriminating questions were like that. He was in no mood to invite a critical examination of his statements and conclusions. He showed what an important role he had in cause and how impossible it is to reconcile all elements of a system that has great wrongs in it.
When General Smits speaks on the League of Nations or some other non-provincial question his logic is sound and his language lucid. But on such general topics he is a man of the world; while on the question of the Negro he is a man of South Africa. He is a man of South Africa, best that is in the South African system, his social mind shows very plainly that no man can rise above the system in which he was born and nurtured and in which he continues to live. He may rise to the top of his system; he cannot get above it. He may breathe its loftiest instead of its lowest sentiments. The system of South Africa is a system of the exploitation of black and civilized or civilized and the cities of European extraction. Mr. Smits is the most "benevolent" and humane exponent of this terribly cruel system.
But toward the end of his address he showed that his soul is not altogether at peace with his policies when he pleaded: "I am not a dogmatist. This thing deserves the serious attention of all of us. We all belong to the great human family." All in the same human family, and yet the black Africans must not live in the same territory or work at the same trades as the whites. It reminded us of the white woman who had a block of land where they were doubt church members. The white woman was ready to admit that both of them would be saints in heaven, but insisted that the black saint must occupy the kitchen end of the mansion in the skies.
It is a difficult problem. It will
be solved by dishonesty or
swearing.
N.A.C.P.'s Charges Hit s Former City Magistrate
(Continued from Page 1.)
and the Kings County Bar Association.
The complaint accused Mr. Rudich of showing partiality to the patrolman, whose father is police officer. He also charged with having offered $500 to the wounded boy from the patrolman, with the understanding that the summons would not be pressed. This proposal was said to have been made in Rudich's chambers.
The complaint further charges that Rudich failed to permit several witnesses to testify in the case of Baker, who charged that he was shot without cause by the policeman. Baker and his companion, William Fontaine, were arrested by Lowe in Brooklyn after Baker had been shot. Baker was accused of firing a sault and Baker filed counter charges against Lowe. The case was called for Oct. 31 before Mr. Rudich.
Attorneys for Baker charged that the former magistrate apparently knew details about the case before the witnesses were called. They stated that after three witnesses had been called, two of them testified that Baker had not assaulted Lowe, Mr. Rudich adjourned the hearing and called all the parties concerned into his chambers. The complaint of the N. A. A. C. P. filed by Walter White, assistant secretary, charges that it was during this conference that $500 was offered to Baker against him with his charge against Lowe. Following Baker's refusal, according to the complaint, Mr. Rudich returned to the bench and dismissed the assault charges against Baker and Fontaine and the summons against Lowe.
This is the second complaint filed against Rudich recently, the first being a charge filed by Mr. McAdoo which charges that he dismissed the complaint against white women with criminal records. As a result of this complaint, he is now under examination before the grievance committee of the Kings County Bar Association at the request of Mayor Walker. As his term ended in October 2013, Mr. Rudich's reappointment depends on the report of the committee.

C. Benjamin Curley Heads Harlem Financial Institution
Invitations have been issued by the People's Economic Association, Inc., 203 West 138th street, for the formal opening on Monday at the association's headquarters of the People's Credit Union, a financial institution authorized and supervised by the Banking Department of the State of New York.
"The People's Economic Association is simply a welfare organization in the field of economics for the people of Harlem," C. Benjamin Curley, president of the association, told a reporter of The Amsterdam News yesterday. "The People's Credit Union," said Mr. Curley, "is to be a co-operative bank for the members of the Economic Association.
"Small loans will be issued to the membership at less than six per cent interest and these loans may be paid back weekly. Deposits will also be accepted and four and one-half per cent interest will be paid. In addition, shares will be sold to those who wish to invest. Our whole aim," Mr. Curley concluded, "is to better the

EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES
More Invasion of Private Rights
(From the Racine (Wis.) Times-Call)
The interference of government with private rights and the control of their own lives and affairs by private citizens is growing constantly.
This is true of both nation and state.
Meddling government officials and inspectors are interfering with business and personal privileges to an extent that is becoming oppressive.
There is a constant demand and pressure on Congress and legislatures for more and more power backed by oppressive legislation.
The latest move in this direction is the bill introduced by Senator Smoot in congress.
This bill would give the food and drug department arbitrary control of the advertising of food and drug products, a power no governmental bureau should be given.
There is already on the statute books laws against false advertising that, if enforced, will fully protect the citizens.
There are also ample laws against impure and adulterated food and drug products.
To give a bureau censorship and control of advertising of food and drug products is carrying bureaucracy to a degree dangerous to private rights and wholly uncalled for by existing conditions.
A decided halt should be called to this invasion of the private affairs of citizens of the government.
A nation-wide protest has gone up against the Smoot bill that Congress should heed.

for the latter part of this month. This examination is expected to attract a large number of candidates, particularly since the maximum salary has been raised to $3,000 a year and the entrance salary will probably be $2,000.
The examination for attendant (male), Grade 1, is attracting a large field of candidates, 727 applications having been filed since the opening date on January 2. Applications will close tomorrow. The reason for this test being so popular is, that there is no required experience. Any man 21 years of age or over who can read and write is eligible for the job, which pays $1,600 a year and more.
An examination for the position of Post Office clerk has been announced by the U. S. Civil Service Commission, the proposed date of which is February 15. Applications may be obtained at the office of the District Secretary, Room 105. Custom House, New York, and must be filed not later than Jan. 31. Young men between the ages of 18 and 45 are eligible for this examination. The entrance salary is $1,700 per annum, with annual promotion depending upon faithfulness and efficiency up to a maximum of $2,100 per annum.

Jan Smuts and Jackasses
Jan Smuts and Jackasses
THE LION used to be the most talked-of animal, but in recent days the jackass has kicked his way into the spotlight. Not so long ago Senator Moses credited him with the paternity of certain gentlemen from the West, to whom he referred as sons of wild jackasses. Last week General Jan Christian Smuts, in a speech at Town Hall, compared the Negro with the jackass.
DR. R. R. MOTON arose and objected, asking General Smuts what he meant by the comparison. The general replied that he had used the word jackass in admiration! His explanation was worse than the original insult, for he said, in speaking of the oppressed natives of Africa: "They are patient animals. The Negroes are, next to the ass, the most patient of all animals.
GENERAL SMUTS seems to have a low opinion of the intelligence of Negroes and all other Americans. Any child knows that a real admirer of the Negro would have said "as patient as an angel, or as Job." General Smuts knows it, too; he deliberately chose the word jackass and he dwelt on the word animal. He may not know that all human beings are animals, though they never stress that fact in decent society. JAN SMUTS may talk till doomsday about his friendship for the Negro; but that one phrase of his speech at Town Hall offsets the effect of a thousand books and speeches. He goes about the world posing as an apostle of peace and a friend of humanity; but while the front of his shirt is impressive the tail of it is fluttering in the wind. We call the white American Southerners enemies of the Negro; but compared with the South African Boers they are warm lovers. Never has the path of the black man been crossed by a more sinister shadow than Jan Christian Smuts.
HIS WORDS ALONE show his hatred of the Negro, and he has the reputation of more than supporting them with deeds. Captain Harry Dean, who has lived in South Africa, says that Smut's policy calls for complete extermination of the natives. He would like General Smuts to explain some things that happened when Smuts was Prime Minister of South Africa. What of the ruthless slaughter of the Masi tribe? What of the mysterious epidemic that killed half a million natives? What of the diabolical cruelty of putting arsenic in the streams and springs from which the natives had to drink?
WHEN A MAN like Jan Smuts comes preaching about good-will, human kindness and leagues of nations to enforce the Golden Rule, it is enough to make angels weep and veils laugh.
You Made Me Love You
You Made Me Love You
WHENEVER a great disaster occurs people look around for somebody to blame it on. They are not careful to get the right person, they are satisfied with any scapegoat. Dr. John H. Gray, former president of the American Economic Association, blames the recent Wall Street crash on President Coolidge, Secretary Mellon and Professor Irving Fisher. These men, he says, were always talking of prosperity and increased efficiency of production, thus leading people into Wall Street speculation. He evidently regards Mr. Coolidge as a modern Pied Piper of Hamelin, luring innocent folk into an abyss.
THAT IS BABY TALK. Those men are no more responsible for the stock market crash than is Judge Gray himself. They said the country was prosperous, and so it was and is; but they never advised the public to abuse prosperity by loading it with a lot of fictitious values. No remark or policy of Mr. Coolidge caused stocks which had never paid a dividend to sell for five hundred dollars a share.
THE THING that is responsible is older than Mr. Coolidge, older than the nation itself. It is downright human greed, the eternal desire, to get rich quickly, to get something for nothing. People rush into the market to sting somebody, and when they get stung themselves they put up the wail that Mr. Coolidge or somebody else made them do it. "They are like the woman who chases a man all over the map and then complains: "You made me love you, I didn't want to do it."

DEAN ROGERS of the University of Colorado Law School disagrees with the statements of President Hoover and others to the effect this country is notorious for crime. He denies that the people of this country have a disrespect for law that amounts to a subsidence of our civilization. He takes issue with the often-heard opinion that England is a much more law-abiding country than the United States. He says that England's system of dealing with crime was forced into existence in the year 1829 because London was overrun by gangs of criminals. In extenuation of America's crime record he says that there is a distinction between public law and private law.
FOR ALL HIS LEGAL LEARNING, the dean is evidently more patriot than lawyer. He is far wide of the mark in more ways than one. There is no point in saying that England in 1829 was as lawless as America in 1929. What America needs to emulate is the law-abiding spirit of England today. It is well to be patriotic, but there will be no real criminal reform in America till the fact is faced that this is the most lawless country among the great powers.
AMERICAN DISREGARD for law is encouraged by such remarks as the dean's. Here we have the dean of a law school excusing violations of the law by drawing a distinction between public law and private law. Does he mean to say that one set of laws should be obeyed and the other should not? This is just what President Hoover has complained of—citizens choosing which laws they will obey and which they will not. When a law school dean excuses resistance to the law it is no wonder that criminals practice resistance to the law.
BUFFALO has a Negro population of 12,000, the greater part of which came here during the war. There is no residential segregation, and being in the more civilized area of America there is perhaps less color prejudice than is to be found in most northern cities. Some of the leading hotels, however, would rather not have Negro guests, and one of them, a week ago, would have admitted Dr. John Hope only on condition that he consented not to have his meals in the dining room. It was also stipulated that he must not go to the desk to register.
Dr. Hope lived, instead, at one of the leading clubs, which, however, does not indicate much. This same club once refused to serve a darker Negro, who was to be one of a party at dinner there, with the result that he was not invited to where. The Negro refused was no other than the secretary of the Y. M. C. A. Buffalo cannot be said to be a progressive city, racially. This is attributed to the comparatively recent arrival of the bulk of the Negro population, which, prior to the migration, was but a few thousands. Negroes are also too scattered to build up businesses of their own and Negro business men must be familiar with the most officers. There is, however, an active branch of the National Negro Business League, of which Dr. H. H.
D R. R. R. WRIGHT, JR., editor of The Christian Recorder, official organ of the A. M. E. Church, has taken up the cudgel in behalf of Bishop Carey, now under indictment for malfeasance in office.
My good friend takes me to task on two counts to which I plead not guilty. He accuses me of striking a man when he is down. My readers will recall that, when the proffer of the commissionship was first made to the bishop, I sent out a release condemning the bishop of the city of Chicago crooked politics. I pointed out the possibility of involving the great A. M. E. Church in political scandal, and expressed the hope that the good bishop would decline the offer. This was at the time when he was at the pinnacle of his political and ecclesiastical fortune. When the courts of Chicago found a true bill of indictment and placed the matter under a $25,000 bond, the public interest that it elicited comment from every publication in the country.
Dr. Wright knows fully well from his long editorial experience that the journalistic iron must be struck when it is hot. I hope that I am not struck by the necessity of striking a man when he is down. Bishop Carey, has always

There are several ladies' clubs and organizations, among which is the Mus-Lat Club. There are two Negro weekles with a good circulation in that part of the state—The Progressive Herald, with Zenobia Alexander as editor, and The Buffalo Journal, with H. Starks as editor.
Warder Jones and Smith and Smith are the leading undertakers; C. James has a drug store; Mrs. Marcus Bender, a gasoline station, and Mr. Malone, a grocery and hardware store.
The leading occupations are laboring and domestic. Rudolph Lane, however, is head bookkeeper of the Buffalo Optical Company, the largest white concerns in the State. Mr. Lane is also active in Y. M. C. A. work. James Ross also holds a responsible position in the Health Department.
Buffalo's chief pride is its Y. M. C. A., and this is justified, as it is the best kept and best organized one I have seen, and I have seen most of the others. All is arranged with such taste that one feels himself at being rather in a home than in an institution. The furnishings throughout, chairs, couches, carpets, tables, planos, as well as lavatories, are as fine as those of many a rich white clubhouse. The same is true of the gymnasium, boys' department and the cafeteria. The cafeteria is under the management of Mrs. Bessie Crawford. The "W" is really the social center of the and most of the clubs and organizations meet there. The building cost $270,000, of which $143,000 was given by Mr. and Mrs. George B. Matthews, white citizens of Buffalo and $25,000 by Julius Rosenwald. By far the greater part of the credit for this good work belongs to W. H. Jackson. Coming there in

himself and his church and, indeed, the whole race.
In the second place, I have not condemned Bishop Carey in advance of trial. I distinctly said that no one dared declare him technically guilty as indicated until the court had declared its decision. The moral implications involved in the Carey case, however, far transcend the boundaries of narrow legal technicalities. It was no crime, in the eye of the law, for a man to macleas with what is reputed to be the most corrupt political regime in America; there is no law on the statute books which forbids the same A. J. Carey, bishop though he be, from upholding the hands of a Mayor who declares that he will keep the city of Chicago wringing himself on the side of lawlessness and corruption outside of the pale and penalty of the law.
Since when, Dr. Wright, has the A. M. E. Church committed to the Chicago courts the keeping of its conscience? The moral judgment of mankind has always transcended the judicial technicalities of the courts. Socrates was legally excuted. Jesus Christ was legally crucified. John Brown was hanged with judicial justification. Gandhi justified the courts of India in sentencing him to the penitentiary. According to the critics upheld by The Christian Recorder, Attorney-General Dugghery should go unnoticed and be judged a public opinion because the courts find him guilty as indicted. Any shrewd politician with money, friends and influence may defeat the ends of justice. Must the church, therefore, withhold its moral condemnation?
Whether Bishop Carey is acquitted or condemned by the machinery of the law, the moral involvements will in no wise be affected. Religious purity and dirty polites will not mix. Dr. Wright impliedly condemns Bishop Cannon of the M. E. Church, South, for speculation in Wall street stock. The judgment of the Christian world is with him. And yet gambling in stocks and bonds is not a legal offense. Why,

Negro readers have always mourned the loss of the great library of Alexandria, Egypt, which was burned 2,000 years ago by the Vandals. They have always believed that library contained invaluable records of ancient Negro civilizations, and that if it had been spared many of the present misconceptions of the Negro would be avoided. The Nordic Negro library has great deal to the Vandals, for if they had left the Alexandrian library intact the Alexandrian library intact might not have a leg to stand on.
SPECIAL ARTICLES
1923, he found a ramshackle, two-story building, which by uniring efforts he has expanded into the present organization. Nearly all of the planning of the building, including the minutest details, were worked out by him in advance. Mr. Jackson is one of the most thorough and painstaking individuals it has ever been my good fortune to see the slightest detail seems to escape the slightest detail he has all that thoroughness which has made the Germans famous, and were he a white man he would probably be an executive in some big concern getting a salary between $50,000 and $100,000 a year. With all of this he has an even, cheerful disposition, which has made him a favorite with all classes of the population, colored and white. He enjoys very high confidence in the leading white giltsens refer to as the matters concerning the Negro. Before going to Buffalo he served 15 years as a travelling secretary in "X" work.
Mrs. Jackson, who belongs to one of the leading families in Birmingham, Ala., also takes a keen interest in women's work. Both made a trip to Europe this year, and I had the pleasure of meeting them then. Very good work is done educationally also, and there is a good forum to which is brought some of the leading speakers of the country. The boys' department is in charge of J. H. Daves, formerly librarian of the colored branch at Knoxville, Tenn. Mr. Daves also did a considerable amount of social survey while in Knoxville, the result of which was published in an informing booklet. The physical director is under the leadership of Mr. Jackson. Buffalo will undoubtedly have something much higher to report within the next ten years. The architect of the "Y" building is John E. Brent.
then, does the editor of The Christian Recorder apply one standard of ethics to Cannon and another to Curry?
Dr. Wright goes far afield in quest of material to palliate the predicament of his client. He would have us believe that jealous politicians contrived his undoing because they wanted his job. Chicago is accustomed to having Negro men in high office. This is the first time one has heard of undermining a faithful and efficient official account of his race. I fear that the editor would hope to play upon our prejudice as well as our credulity.
Bishop Carey is a member of the Civil Service Board which has to do with 40,000 positions held mainly by white men. Why did he not tell us that Ferdinand Q. Morton of New York City holds precisely the same position where he has to do with 117,000 employees, mostly white? No one has ever heard of any crooked scheme to unhorse him by the use of his race or color. All of M. Carey's employees are plausible and apologetic, but utterly to carry conviction to any fair, impartial and candid mind.
Mr. Wright avens that the A. M. E. Church is bound to stand by Bishop Carey, that it will demand technical proof, and suspend judgment until such proof is forthcoming. As I said in my second release on this unfortunate case, the A. M. E. Church gave its tacit endorsement to Bishop Carey's entanglements when the general conference accepted him as host, partook of his bountie hospitality, shifted Bishop Gaines to another jurisdiction to make place for Bishop Carey, so that he could consolidate his priestly and political power. The case stood then precisely as it is now, with the mere exception that the technical indictment has been lodged.
Dr. Wright is my friend. I hope that he be made bishop at the next general conference. But in this instance I do not believe that he expresses the moral judgment of his denomination. In the midst of such a moral crisis, if R. R. Wright prefers to hold his peace, Irm Bryant will cry out.

X-Rays
X-RAYS have become such an indispensable part of medicine that some patients believe that they can be employed in every case. These rays were discovered in 1895 by Professor Roentgen of the University of Wurzburg, who was performing some experiments involving the discharge of electricity through glass bulbs, which were exhausted nearly completely of air. These rays, as far as could be determined, differed in all respects from light and other known radiations and so Roentgen called them X, signifying that their mechanism was unknown.
The most striking feature of X-rays is the fact that they penetrate with great ease certain substances which are opaque to light, and, on the other hand, are absorbed by certain substances which are very transparent to light. Thus these rays are absorbed largely by glass, but are transmitted most freely by wood, human flesh, etc. X-ray pictures of parts of the body as seen on the screen or when photographed are due to the fact that in the body there are tissues of different chemical composition, density and opacity which absorb varying amounts of the rays. It can be readily seen that these rays can only be used in certain conditions, and patients would be benefited financially if they would allow their truth that lies buried under fossilized layers of vandalism and false scholarship. They have uncovered enough to suggest how much more there is to bring up.
The fruit of their labor has been gathered into a library that is without a parallel—the division of Negro literature and history at the 135th street branch of the New Public Library, of which Miss Elena Smith, the librarian, librarian, Miss Rose, who came to New York in 1920, conceived the idea of establishing a research room on the Negro. This Negro division, of which Mrs. Catherine Latimer is in charge, contains between six and seven thousand volumes, all of them written by or about Negroes. Five famous Scholomials have comprise the famous Scholomials collection chased from Mr. Schomburg by the Carnegie corporation and presented to the 135th street library.
An interesting story could be written of Mr. Schomburg's adventures in collecting these books. He picked them up in odd corners of the library, in the stores, damp caskets, musty haylofts and rat-ridden garrets. In his quest he spent thirty years of his life and most of his income. He found books about the Negro written three hundred years ago, books them, in French, in Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German and Dutch.
Americans talk as though nobody else was ever interested in the Negro, but there were books about him long before most of the American states were settled. When the Puritans came to New England there was a book on the Negro by the scholar Ludophus, written in Latin, and that book is in the Schomburg collection. A book is there proving that Moses, the great priest and prophet of Judaism, married a Negro woman; another proves that the Queen of Sheba, whose name is synonym to the beauty, was a Negro woman; the beauty, St. Mortz. the Roman general after whom the fashionable winter resort of Switzerland is named, was a Negro. Doubles many books have been destroyed, or are yet to be found, that would prove other things discomfiting to Negrohones.
The scope of this collection is too great for more than a mere resume. It includes the whole history of the slave trade and slavery in America, the folk lore of Africa, America and the West Indies, books on African languages, rare historical documents, travel books, books on anthropology, sociology, the spirituals, history, biography, old African prints, and numerous manuscripts of all kinds and numerous presentation contexts.
Visitors from all parts of the world have come to see or use the collection and have found it hard to go away. When John D. Vandercook was compiling his bibliography for his book on Hatti, "Black Man Room. He spent days in the Negro room. He spent days in the University of Leyden, Holland, was astonished and delighted to find in the Schomburg collection sermons in Dutch and Latin delivered by Jacob Capitain, a Negro who was graduated from the University of Leyden in 1741, winning a doctor's degree. Mrs. Gertrude Millin of the University of Leyden trymen have visited the library, and so has Nelson, the famous English writer on Africa.
Americans use the collection regularly. College professors and students from all parts of the country have found it a treasure, and editors and authors are always writing to it for information. Some of the American visitors are Dr. Du Bols, James W. Johnson, Captain Harry Dean, author of "Pedro Gorino," Julia Peterkin, Famille Huren, Henry G. Leach, editor of The Forum Magazine; Paul Robeson, Eugene K. Jones, Malcolm Cowley, Carter William, Pickens, Alain Locke, Jesse Fusset, Lester Walt, Mrs. Erick Berry, Andrew Douglas, Eugene K. Jones, Malcolm Cowley, editor of "The Adventures of an African Sliver"; Professor Loggins of Columbia University and many others. More and more the collection is coming to be appreciated as one of Harlem's greatest treasures.

physicians to determine when an x-ray picture is necessary.
These rays affect a photographic plate in the same manner as ordinary light; and they also excite the fluorescent action of certain substances, so that when excited by the rays they emit light. It is upon these two properties primarily that X-ray is extensively used to make pictures of extensively parts of the body or to examine the actual movements of certain organs by means of a fluoroscope. Aside from the conditions too numerous to mention in which the X-rays play so important a part from a photographic point of view, their use as a curative agent in certain diseases as ring worm of the scalp, and its second to none. They are used with certain types of early cancer with a reasonable degree of success.
It takes a great deal of study and experience to become efficient in the use of X-rays, and a considerable amount of money for X-ray equipment; these are facts to be thought of, if your X-ray bill seems high. X-rays when indicated are of tremendous value, but just don't want an X-ray taken on the strength of your imagination.

SOME weeks ago in our introduction article on Light Therapy we mentioned the fact that beyond the red end of the spectrum are invisible rays which we call infrared rays. The rays that beyond the violet end of the spectrum are invisible rays that we call ultra-violet rays. The physics of light, which is applied to infra-red rays, applies equally as well to ultra-violet, i.e., penetration, absorption, etc. The rays may be produced within by a generator or by the carbon are, the carbon are so treated as to obtain a maximum of ultra-violet rays. The varied uses of ultra-violet are more varied than in the case of infrared.
The symptoms of abnormal dentation are: Swelling in the gland region, excessive salivation, fever of the oral cavity and gastro-intestinal disturbances. Local and general exposure to ultra-violet radiation stimulates the system to such an extent that the teeth are of a better quality. By isolating a single tooth, it may be bleached back to its normal color when exposed to ultra-violet. In case of fractures of the jaws, regular daily exposure to ultra-violet is of great aid. Trenchmouth, an oral infection in which the breath has a very tield odor, responds readily to ultra-violet radiation. In all cases of neuralgia there is some underlying cause, usually a toxic or anemia condition of the body. Radiation of the face and of the oral cavity usually brings quick relief. The value of ultra-violet emphasizes the power in the sunlight. One writer has called it "the greatest of all doctors."

The air is crisp and cold,
And soon will come the flakes of
snow.
The year is growing old.
Sweet song birds have long since
fled
Far off across the sea;
The lovely flowers are all now dead,
I wish I, too, could flee
Away to some congenial clime,
Where many brookleys flow,
Leaving all this gloom behind.
Forgetting all my woe.
Ecn though the fields so barren
are.
My heart within me thrills
When I look up and see afar,
God's great eternal hills.
