All are Insulting Marines Given Walloping Picked on Pugilistic Aspirant and Are Knocked SAN DIEGO, Cal. Jan. 20 (A. N. P.)—That it does not pay to jump on a prizefighter especially if you are in the wrong and a hater of his race was proven here last Saturday when Henry Walton thrashed two marines off one of the battleships wintering in the port here. Walton, a red-cap at the Southern Pacific station and also a rapidly coming fighter, having recently knocked out the Navy champion at the San Diego Coliseum. He was standing on duty in front of the station when the two sailors came reeling down the platform drunk, but not too much so to observe that he was black and alone. "Come on, boy, dance," shouted one of the brave sea soldiers, thinking perhaps that he was in Haiti. "No, I don't care to," quetely answered the young pugilist red-cap. "If I had you in Tennessee, my home, I'd make you dance!" With that he swung a hefty right, but the speedy boy ducked as he had often done in the ring and the blow whistled over his head. With a wicked cross-counter, he downed his attacker, then flattened his pal and then kept downing them as fast as they struggled to their feet. Walton won out regardless of the fact that he suffered a scalp cut from an auto crank handle welded by one of the bullies. Later, after the affair was reported, he was escorted aboard ship to identify the two culprits, who may be punished. FOUR FIRMS ADDED TO C. M. A.

Protests in Spite of Parham on School Ouster "Aside from taking a re-examination in March to return to West Point next fall, I have no immediate plans," Alonzo Souleigh Parham of Chicago, former West Point cadet, who was discharged from the U. S. Military Academy early last week, told The Amsterdam News on Thursday at the home of friends here in the city. When asked about the rumors concerning unfair treatment accorded him by other cadets, Parham smiled and said: "Rumors? That's all they were, rumors. I was given the same treatment every other fourth-year man received." Parham failed in only one subject, mathematics, and is entitled to a re-examination in that subject next March. If he passes at that time, Parham will re-enter West Point next fall. In the event that he fails in this examination, the Military Academy is not to be without a Negro cadet, for Congressman Oscar DePriest, who appointed Parham, announced Tuesday his intention of sending another to the institution should his recent appointee be permanently dropped. Despite Parham's declaration of fair treatment at all times while at West Point, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced, through its secretary, Walter White, that the organization has gone on record as being frankly skeptical about the fairness with which Parham's papers were graded.

W "The Dentist" COME WHERE YOUR T Smuts Branded as "Greatest Enemy" Africans Deny Claim That Natives Are Asleep in Homeland "If ever the Negro has an enemy in the world today it is Jan Smuts." declared the Rev. Johnson Aspausea, native of Sierno Leone, Africa, Sunday afternoon at the Unique Colony Circle, 254 West 135th street, before the Native American Union of America. The meeting was staged as a protest against a recent statement of General Smuts in which he described the African as "next to the ass, the most patient of animals." "I am not annoyed," said Dr. Aspause, "at Smuts for having likened us to the ass. He is only a stupid man, who, going to war, underestimates the strength of his opponent. In his speech here at the Town Hall, General Smuts said that the majority of South Africa were satisfied and content in their tribal environment. The very next day word came from South Africa that the natives were in a state of revolt. "Everything that General Smuts said was aimed as an insult at the American Negro." Dr. Asapana charged. "He was simply using psychology. He wants you to believe that your racial heritage is nothing and because of this you can never hope to be anything. I would not be surprised if General Smuts was pled by whites forces here in American to say what he did about the native African." Ell Bushee yjombolo, president of the National African Union in commenting on the address of General Smuts, said: "We are so dormant here in America that the rest of the world can tell everything they want to if we remain in that state. "The natives of Africa," said Mr. Nyombolo, "are awake despite the statements made by Smuts and others. Their claim that the native African is happy and contented is a joke. A white man goes to Africa and sees a native sitting calmly before his hut. He goes home and writes a book saying the African is contented. What he does not know is that same African is joining with many others in secret meetings at night. Other speakers who made short talks on Africa were W. Tete Anse of Nigeria; P. Schoolen of South East Africa; and E. Jackson Ajave of Liberia. Each speaker urged co-operation between the natives of Africa and the American Negro. Upon the suggestion of Samuel Westerfield, attorney, a resolution condemning the attitude of General Smuts in Africa and criticizing his "ass" remark.

The New York Amsterdam News New Harlem Municipal Court District Viewed Probable in N. Y. Relief Plan Bill Introduced in Legislature by Assemblyman Rivers May Be Merged With Measure to Lessen Jam in Civil Cases ALBANY, Jan. 20.—An attempt was being made today to work out a comprehensive plan for the relief of Manhattan and Brooklyn municipal courts, which, if incorporated in a bill, may be merged with one introduced into the Assembly last Tuesday by Francis E. Rivers of the Twenty-first district of New York. The bill presented by Assemblyman Rivers would change the boundaries of the Seventh District Municipal Court in Harlem and create a second district court for the uptown section. One hundred and Fifty-fifth street would be the northerly boundary, Fifth avenue the easterly boundary, 110th street the southerly boundary, while the westerly boundary would be as follows: Eighth avenue from 110th street to 118th street, west to Morningside avenue, north to 125th street east to St. Nicholas avenue, north to 145th street, east to Edgecombe avenue, and north to 155th street. All the section west of this westerly boundary line of the Seventh Municipal Court district would be the Tenth Municipal Court district. Assemblyman Hits State Policy Law (Continued from Page 1.) that the provision results in the conviction of many innocent persons who may happen to have in their possession slips of paper with almost any sets of figures. In outlining further his reasons for his measure, Mr. Perkins declared The bill requires two justices in the Seventh district and three in the Tenth district. Extreme congestion in the Seventh District Municipal Court makes it imperative that two justices be appointed to exist the existing district it is said. The Seventh Municipal Court District in both area and population is the largest in Manhattan. It is also second to none in the existing congestion of its calendar and the great delay in having cases tried and disposed of. In addition to this hardship of delay and loss of time another difficulty is involved in the removal of the courthouse to 417 West 151st street from its past location at 320 West 125th street. This removal makes it inconvenient of access by residents of the easterly and southeastern portions of the district. This attempt to give Harlem relief from its congested calendars has been repeated for the last six years. For the first time, the bill was introduced by Popa B. Billups. In each case the bill was passed by both houses but vetoed by the Governor. Various reasons have been assigned as to why the Governors have vetoed this bill. One is that Republican judges would be elected in the eastern district and also that he objected to a relief plan which relieved but one section of the borough and insisted that relief must be comprehensive or not at all. It is understood that most Harlem landlords and reality men are in favor of the measure's a'mean of saving thousands of dollars annually in time and money for Harlem.

Three other bills were offered to put an end to the police system of using informers or "stool pigeons" for the purpose of trapping girls, arresting them on charges of prostitution. Many girls are convicted on the bare word of officers who properly be must always above question," said the author. Under the proposed law the informer would have to be produced the trial and charged with the same offence. The officer who failed to apprehend him would be guilty of a misdemeanor and subject to a fine. The first bill would provide that section 150 of the Tenement House Law and section 887 of the code of criminal procedure apply to persons of both sexes. A second makes it mandatory that the person with whom the alleged crime was committed be produced in court. The third provides punishment for the police officer who falls to arrest either or both parties to the crime of prostitution or soliciting. Two other proposed laws affect the housing situation. One imposes obligation to make reasonable repairs and maintain the premises in a habitable condition before the collection of fees for violations have placed on the property or not. The other allows a municipal justice the discretion of granting a six months' stay in cases of rent increases, during which time the tenant could deposit his old rent with the court and seek new premises. Mr. Perkins is also preparing a bill to create a new municipal court district in the Seventh district of Manhattan. The measure he designed would allow the officers of the crater governors who have vetoed such legislation in the past. Stephanie St. Clair Held in $5,000 Bail (Continued from Page 1.) that she had been unemployed for a year and a half, but had earned sufficient money to care for her expenses while operating a store on Seventh avenue.

The policeman had a different story to tell when he took the stand. He declared that Mme. St. Clair had six envelopes of policy slips in her handbag when arrested. He also asserted that she offered the officers $500 each for the prisoner, the prisoner told the three that she was "finished with banking," he added. Mme. St. Clair was represented by M.F. Grove, former judge, who questioned Emanuel Kline, police policy expert, on the time of closing for "numbers" collectors.

The blaze started in the bookcase of one of the classrooms and was discovered by an attendant, who turned in the fire alarm which summoned firemen to the scene. The dammed room they started and were soon under the control of the firemen. The chief damage was that caused to the walls, ceiling and bookcases of the room of the fire's origin. Six buildings are grouped near the building in which the fire occurred and the damage to the institution might have been far greater than it was had it not been for the quick work of the firemen. HELD FOR JURY IN THREAT ON WOMAN Errol Walker, 27, 124 West 127th street, was held in $1,000 bail for the Grand Jury when arranged Monday before Magistrate Stern in Harlam Court on a charge of felonious assault made by his alleged common-law wife, Bessie Huvington, of the same address. The woman charges that Walker became enraged because she had permitted her sister to come to her home and that he threatened to kill her with an open knife. Walker denied the charge when arrested by Policeman Armstrong of the West 123d street station. COMMUNISTS TO PROTEST GEN.

Porto Rican Slain By Officer's Shot Fearing a raid on his apartment and fleeing to a nearby yard with his sweetheart proved fatal to Radames Leandri, 27, a Porto Rican, Friday night, when he was shot and killed by Patrolman Frank J. Sullivan, who suspected him of being one of two men who a short time before had held up the barbershop of Carmella Martinez, 178 Columbia street, Brooklyn. In the pursuit of the two holdup men who escaped, Salvatore Sametro, 16, white, was also seriously wounded by Sullivan as he walked into the range of the patrolman's fire as he was returning home from school. Leandri at the same time that the co-conspirator white was engaged in a tete-ete attack with Warner, 21, white, of Bridgeport, Conn, in his apartment at 88 Sedgwick street. Hearing the ding created by passersby in the pursuit of the holdup men, and thinking a raid was about to be made on his apartment, Leandri and the girl fled to the yard, where they were crouched behind a barrel when apprehended by Sullivan. According to Sullivan, when he ordered the pair to surrender, Leandri attempted to get away by climbing over a fence. It was then that he fired two shots, one of which struck Leandri in the back of the head, killing him instantly. Sullivan held on to the girl, preventing her escape.

FINLEY WILSON WINS ROUND WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 22. 1930 Virginia Elks Temporarily Restrained From Setting Up New Grand Lodge Remains to Be Seen, However, if Injunction Will Be Made Permanent—Insurgents Protest Per Capita Tax Round One in the battle which certain members of the Improved, Benevolent, Protective Order Elks of the World have instituted to unseat J. Finley Wilson as the grand exalted ruler or to cause a split in the order, which will ultimately attain that end, seems to have been won by the grand exalted ruler with the restraining order issued by the Federal Court in Richmond, Virginia, against the establishing there of another I., B., P. O. F. of W. last week. Following the election of Wilson in Atlantic City last August over Caspar Holstein, the Virginians, led by Attorney James T. Carter, A. V. Norell and Dr. Leon Reld, all prominent members of Williams Lodge No. 11 of Richmond, set about to institute a Grand Lodge of their own, seceding from the present Grand Lodge. Behind this move they contended that they had a legal right since the original Grand Lodge was first incorporated in the State of Virginia, so they claimed. Girl Dies Six Days After Elevator Crash Miss Vera Shelton, 15, of 203 Union street, Jersey City, victim of an elevator accident in the Knickerbocker Apartment, where she was employed, succumbed Thursday night in Jersey City Hospital, after fighting gamely for six days. Her funeral was held in Salem Baptist Church, Sunday afternoon. Rallying behind this idea, several of the large Virginia lodges have refused to pay the $1 per capita tax imposed on the Elks' convention, a refusal which would automatically disbar them from membership in the Grand Lodge. They are said to have gained some converts in the State of North Carolina as well as Florida. In this State, Monarch Lodge, of which Caspar Holstein, the defeated candidate for grand exalted ruler, is the head, has been bold in its declaration that it will never pay the new per capita tax on the ground that it cannot afford to do so. Offer Head to Holstein: When they decided to branch out for a real split, the Virginians, who were the main supporters of Caspar Holstein at Atlantic City, offered the New Yorker the head of the newly formed Grand Lodge, but he is said to have discreetly refused main on the ground that his present business interest made it impossible. When the effort to set themselves up as a Grand Lodge was made, the present grand exalted ruler, through his grand legal advisor, Perry W. Howard, brought action against them in the Federal Court in Virginia at Richmond and Judge Lawrence Groner granted Howard a temporary injunction restaining the Virginia. It is answerable in five days after which the injunction may be made permanent. Whether or not this squabble is an indication of others to come remains to be seen. Those who are in a position to know state that the present Grand Lodge, the one which held its porated as it should have been follower the split in 1810. It is further claimed that with the consolidation of the two warring Grand Lodges, the one which held its convention in Columbus, Ohio, under B. F. Howard, and the regular one which held its convention in Brooklyn and elected Dr. Mills grand exalted ruler, the present Grand Lodge has been operating under the charter of the original Grand Lodge body represented by the Brooklyn convention. Unless Wilson is able to kill the uprising while it is still in its incipiency the indications seem to appear that the order will be in for a number of lawsuits and that the Detroit convention will see considerable strife. McADOO PRESSED FOR ACTION UPON RUDICH The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People made public a letter to Chief Magistrate McAdoo asking what action had been taken in the case of Magistrate Mark Rudick, who is charged with "compounding a crime" by the association. The N. A. A. C. P. contended that Rudick, who faces charges of malfeasance from another source, acted Ralph Baker, Lincoln University student, to accept a cash settlement of $500 from Patrolman Walter Lowe, white, who shot the youth in a Brooklyn elevated station last year. Counter charges of felonious assault were dismissed by the magistrate after a conference in his chambers. LOWEST LUMP DOORS — MOULDING FRONT and ENA J. T.

Witnessed in was Blackstone, in Patrolman Hurt in Halting Automobile Former Detective Suffers Injured Leg—Motorist Held for Trial Patrolman Joseph Brown, who was rated as one of the crack detectives of the West 133th street station before being reduced in rank, was painfully injured Saturday at 3 a.m. when struck by the fender of a speeding automobile. The policeman saw the automobile traveling at a fast rate of speed and in a reckless manner coming up Seventh avenue. Brown stepped into the roadway at 131st street, and signaled to the chauffeur to stop. The fender of the car struck the policeman, throwing him to the ground. The car continued going, but was overtaken by a taxicab chauffeur, who gave chase. The chauffeur of the automobile gave his name as Warner Fields, 24, 5 Munyon avenue. Yonkers. He was arrested on a charge of reckless driving and was arranged later before Magistrate Smith in Washington Heights Court, who held him in $500 bail for a hearing in the Traffic Court. The injured policeman was treated in Harlem Hospital for injuries to his right leg and remained on duty. Nine Men Damage Cabaret $25,000 in Bold Assault The Plantation Club, 80 West 126th street, was wrecked early Thursday afternoon by nine unknown white men who, after cowing the watchman with drawn revolvers, calmly destroyed $25,000 worth of furnishings. Early in the afternoon, according to John Sellich, the doorman, he admitted a man whom he thought to be a laundryman, as the visitor was attired in a white coat and apron and carried a large white bundle. Behind him came eight men; they drew guns and forced Sellich and Harry Jones, the watchman, to accompany them to the cellar. Drawing axes from the cellar, the men set and secured their work. Mural-decorations were torn from the wall; mirrors were shattered; an expensive plano was demolished. William Hill, white manager of the club, told police that he could offer no explanation of the dandals' work except that it might have been provoked by jealousy of the club's success: IBER PRICES INGS — WALL BOARDS AMELED BRICKS Lumber Co., Inc.

Appointment WASHINGTON, Jan. 20. -Slender hope has been revived by those who have sought to have a Negro lawyer appointed as assistant attorney general of the United States. There are two vacancies in such posts in the Department of Justice. They were created by the resignation of George R. Farnum and Herman J. Galloway. Before his retirement December 31, Mr. Galloway promoted Louis R. Mehligton to an attorney in the department of justice at a rate of $3,800. He was also associate attorney. There is no other Negro in the Department of Justice of similar rank. Only one Negro has served as an assistant attorney general of the United States. He is William H. Lewis of Boston, who served in that position under the Taft administration. Mr. Howard was a special assistant to the Attorney General at a salary of $6400 a year. The late William C. Martin of Cleveland also served as special assistants to the Attorney General under the Coolidge administration. Recall Marines in Haiti, King Says WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—The recall of Brig. Gen. John H. Russell as United States High Commissioner to Haiti and his replacement by a civilian was urged by Senator King, Democrat, of Utah, after a talk with President Hoover Saturday. "I believe that our going into Haiti was not justified, and that it was a violation of the sovereignty of Haiti and an injustice to the Haitians," Senator King said. "I have asserted over and over again that we should get out of Haiti, and I have introduced a resolution in the Senate demanding withdrawal of the marines, and the calling of a constitutional convention by the Haitians. I have bitterly opposed President Borno, and I am opposed to any policy that would call for retention of the marines in the country. "I think the United States should announce its intention to send a civilian governor in place of a military governor and that neither Borno nor whom he might name should be the figurehead governor of Haiti, that bellevue selection would be held within a reasonable time for the selection of such officers as they might provide in their Constitution, peace and tranquility would come to Haiti and all resentment would cease. I believe we are in Haiti under an illegal treaty." Senator King said that while he favored a civilian governor, he would, in the absence of anything better, support President Hoover's proposal for a commission to study the situation, which he the commission would ascertain any facts worth while under the present military regime, however.

Bishop Shaw Makes Light of Charges Says Accusing Minister Is Disgruntled Because of His Removal BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Jan. 20 (ANP).—In a statement to a representative of the Associated Negro Press, Bishop B. G. Shaw of the A. M. E. Zion Church, dismissed as trivial the report of charges filed against him by Dr. E. D. Thompson, formerly of Montgomery, Ala. "But for the interest of my church, which may suffer some from the publication, the many friends I have made throughout the country and their interest in the church and me. I would have nothing to say." said Bishop Shaw. "But in view of these facts, I make this statement." I regard the matter as frivolous. The Rev. D. E. Thompson was moved November, 1928, as any other illiterant preacher may be moved at any time curing an annual conference, and records of the Central Alabama Conference held in Montgomery in December, 1929, will show that he was expelled from that conference. He has been active against me since added by some few infamous persons outside of the State, or at least, not concerned in the Sixth Episcopal District of which I am the head.

Named seven per cent. as the rate of return. Held that the existing rates did not produce an adequate return and were confiscatory. Authorized the Company to increase rates, to produce a return not greater than seven per cent. upon the fair value of the property. New rates, prepared in accordance with the Court's decree, will become effective February 1, 1930. They are designed to distribute the charges for telephone service fairly and equitably among all classes of service and all sizes of exchanges. Some rates will be increased more than others, some will not be changed and some will be reduced. In 1920 it became apparent that the revenues produced by the telephone rates then in effect were insufficient to meet the changed economic situation brought about by the war. Since that time, this Company has been seeking, before the Public Service Commission and the Federal Court, the relief it needs to protect adequately this vital public service. During these rate proceedings, extending over a period of nine years, representatives of the Public Service Commission, of the City and State of New York, and of the Company presented all facts and arguments pertinent to this case. These proceedings on which the Court based its decision represent one of the most searching examinations ever made in this State into the affairs and service charges of a public utility. Constant progress in dependability and speed of service has been made but it is obvious that progress cannot continue unless the financial stability of the Company is secure. This Company's program for the next five years contemplates an expenditure of approximately $600,000,000 for expansion and service improvements. A fair return must be assured on the capital required to carry out this program, if we are successfully to attract the necessary amount of new money.

NEW YORK TELEPHONE COMPANY Asserts Federation Will Not Give Negro Equality "The American Federation of Labor will never include Negroes in their unions on an equal basis with the white worker," declared Clarence Miller, white, secretary-treasurer of the National Textile Workers' Union, in a statement yesterday. The radical unionist was commenting on the demands made by T. Arnold Hill, industrial relations director, of the National Urban League, in an open letter to William Green, white, president of the labor federation. "Hill must know by this time" said Miller, "that the A. F. of L. is not interested in the broad masses of unskilled workers. It is interested only in the highly skilled and has even made a declaration that it would not organize the unskilled workers." Declaring that his union, the National Textile Workers' Union, affiliated to the Trade Union Unity League, demands absolute race equality of all workers, Miller said: "We are ready to face lynch squads and fight the Southern mill owners and their vicious laws, and struggle for the right of white and black workers to organize in our union under equal conditions." reason or fact and could not be sustained if prosecuted by enemies of mine and of the church.

This anthem is given under the auspices of the Dodd Association of 600 West 34th street, and more than 3,500 persons are expected to attend this year Hard to Get Away By Joseph Columbus Manning DOWN in North Carolina, near a small railroad town, lived a fairly prosperous Negro farmer. He was out of debt, owned good farm equipment, and his mules, horses and cattle were in good condition. The man was thrifty. He sold out and left that section, however, and came North. Why? Here is one reason, as he recited it to me: "Now," he said, "I have worked very hard on my farm during the week. I made up my mind to spend Saturday night and Sunday with my brother down the railroad from my own. I ought to have been regarded as a free man. The only thing against me on the part of those who control things is that I am a Negro. I pay my own way and don't owe anybody, and that hurts, to my way of thinking. In our country storekeeper, as I pass on the streets of the town on my way to the railroad station, to bawl out at me and say: 'Where are you going, and what are you all dressed for?' Then for another to shout that I had better be in the cotton patch, Nigger!" leave home except through some strategy without running the risk of incurring the bitterness of the white folk throbabout. So, the old gentleman left as though he only going a short way up the railroad was going to visit to New York. Why? This secrecy required? It is because nothing so arouses the average white than for one of the Negroes of the locality to be going North. Then, "a Nigger ain't got a real friend, a real family, warm and down the railroad, nobody." In this instance we have the case of an old colored gentleman, a good citizen, who has lived on the same farm a half-century. He has reared a large family. Many children married and are living far away. There is large acreage, good Man is of the spirit, and to have the spirit trampled upon, ruthlessly and flippantly, cuts to the quick, mighty deep to the sensibilities. Continuing his own viewpoint, this former well-to-do citizen of North Carolina went on to say that he had grown tired of the innuendo, "petty trusts in this manhood," and would find some recreation and pleasure by taking that little trip and in making that little visit. I had dressed up in pretty good attire, and felt that I felt I had a right to be proud of my having made some headway in the world. I was starting out on my little trip and show visit in that city, and I felt out of that suit and to get back in the cotton patch, and to be called Nigger, spolled the whole day of it. It ruined my pleasure. Just that I thought I drove me out of the South. That sort of thing, that low and vile disposition behind it, has caused hundreds of Negroes to shift to other scenes. It today is the South, the South, the spirit of the expressor suffers equally in debasement of its own to the sorrow inflicted upon others. Undertaking to make another or more of its progress onward makes small dudge in this process of man's inhumanity to man. That vision which circumscribes a place for the Negro and seeks to keep the Negro that place has so terrily narrowed that its outlook that life, in its lofty spirit, failure. Its-place is even smaller than that it has set for the Negro. We have no particular wish to pick on North Carolina but, since that State is under consideration, we might as well discuss another. Within the past few weeks a New York youngster was exuberant with talk in this apartment. "I know he is my own grandpa, but I just so laugh at him for coming all the time," he said in North Carolina and walking line by line wearing the same overalls, the same hat and the same shoes he wore on the farm." The child thought it funny. The grandfather had come to visit his son and his son's family. There was method, there lay in New York and his arriving in New York wearing his everyday farm clothing. It speaks fine for North Carolina civilization that an old citizen can Youth Held for Larceny After Confessing Theft Pleading guilty to a charge of grand larceny and declaring that he will live an upright life in the future, Irving Miller, 19, 203 West 145th street, was held in $1,000 bail for the Jury yesterday in Heights Court. Magistrate Wright ordered the youth bound for indictment when he heard the complaint of George Harvey, a long-time friend of Miller, who lives at 450 St. Nicholas avenue.

He was wearing the other suit when arrested. Harvey saw Milton the premiere at 324 West Fifty-third street.

Why? leave home except through some strategy without running the risk of incurring the bitterness of the white folk thoracabout. So, the old gentleman left as though he were going to a short way to the road, but his trunk was packed for the visit to New York. Why all this secrecy required? It is because nothing so arouses the average white than for one of the Negroes of the local town. He goes on business as a Nigger, albeit not no business a-riding up and down the railroad, nohow! In this instance we have the case of an old colored gentleman, a good citizen, who has lived on the same farm a century. He has a good wife and a good bride married and are living far away. There is large acreage, good farmhouses and good stock. The old farmer has saved up money. Yet, he has a good wife and has hanging over him that indescribable repression of the southern Bourbon oligarchy. The Ku Klux is strong in that locality. Any poor white can walk "through" the house and say, "Bill, I am going to the town and wagon this morning," and hitch up the team and drive off. This is the white man's way of being neighborly in the hills of Ku Klux North Carolina. The man up walks another good Klanman, who tells Bill that he is going to use his Ford automobile that evening and tells Bill to fill it up with gasoline. This thing is going on right along the road.

If you suffer from indigestion, nervousness, hear the remarkable story of this remarkable medicine. He guided by the experiences of other patients, what Mr. Johnson has to say of Konjola: Konjola is a real medicine: I know experience. I was just about to believe from rheumatism. For five years I needed, but all I tried might just as well have been so much water for all that much good news about this Konjola that the very first bottle of this wonderful medicine did me so much good that I got better steadily, and in five weeks the rheumatoid arthritis from my system. “I am feeling better than in years, for Konjoia cleansed my system, improved my appetite and digestion, as filled me with new life and vigor. When a joyful relief to be free from the agorism I suffered so long, and this new life and happiness, I owe to nothing under the sun but Konjoia.” So it goes, success after success, whenever this new and different medicine is given a chance to prove its merits.

BACHELOR girls and bachelors furnished useful data for a budget study made by the Y. M. C. A., in connection with Thrift Week activities. The general conclusion from the findings is that young bachelor girls who earn $30 a week can live comfortably and remain virtuous; young men who earn $30 a week have to, sin for them being too expensive. How the money goes: From the woman's $30 salary, according to one of the records, $7 a week goes for rent and payment on furniture, $7 for meals (some in the apartment), $4 for clothing, $1 for carriage, $1 for recreation, 75 cents for insurance, 50 cents for organizations, $1 for church and charity, 25 cents for candy, etc., $2 for vacation, 50 cents for toilet articles, $1 for miscellaneous—a total of $28. Usually she manages to save $1 a month.

This leaves him 50 cents a week for savings. Perhaps by combining resources, a man and a girl with $60 a week total income could marry, live together more economically, and even secure happiness out of life. At least the facts in the case tend to point that way—T. E. B. How Much Current for a Year of Service?

High Infant Mortality Rate Among Negroes A greater proportion of the babies of colored parents die than of white parents, whether born in country or city, the most marked difference being in the urban areas of the South. The United States Public Health Service comes to this conclusion after study of United States census reports and State mortality records for a group of Northern and Southern States and four Southern cities. The trend for official babies was found usually to follow that for white babies in the same locality; in two cities—Baltimore and Richmond—the mortality rate for colored infants has declined more rapidly than that for white. As in the case of white babies, the mortality rate for colored children is extremely high during the first month of life, but the rates for the latter do not decrease as rapidly as for the white during the later months. One of the principal causes of the high excess of colored deaths between the fifth and the tenth month. Malliet to Speak A. M.

By using cosmetics I mean using them to an advantage. If powder, rouge and lipstick are applied moderately and carefully, they usually improve. It is the overuse of them that is causing the inapplying of them that work have. A woman should take into consideration her natural color and her features. Certain shades of rouge, for example, look terrible on certain complexions. Instead of the healthy natural glow that you are trying to effect, there is a purple, lifeless sort of hue. A different shade of rouge and the effect would have been altogether different. There are certain skins which look better with rouge. Rough skins with large pores, for example, are made more conspicuous rather than improved. Women with thick lips should be very careful if they use lipstick, as it makes the lips look larger and more prominent. In using powder, keep in mind the fact that you don't want to look ashy. You do want to take off the shims and give your skin a smoothen texture so you don't want to look bloodied. Study your carefully cared and patiently. Don't think that any old make-up will do. It won't. Girl Scout News By AIDA HARRISON, Troop 91. Dear Girl Scout: The Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts are planning a big rally for Friday, February 14.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN The Adoption Question DEAR Eggy Ann: I have been married eight years. Two years ago I gave birth to a baby boy, who died when a few months old. My husband and I were heart broken and since I can bear no more children, we are very lonely. Eggy Ann, I would like to adopt a child, preferably an infant whom I could bring up as our own. My husband, however, is opposed to adoption. He is afraid that a child's inheritance of character would be stronger than its environment in governing the child. I would be willing to take the chance, however, and I feel that my husband would grow to love it as if it were his own. What do you think of the matter, Eggy Ann? Thank you for your advice. GREYRE By all means, do your utmost to your husband's consent to adopt a baby. There are many orphans and part orphans who are waiting for real homes. Institutions generally have a record of a child's parentage which the advocate to those who intend to adopt. No one knows how any child is going to turn out, whether it be an adopted one or his own. Many adopted children have grown into wonderful young men and women. A good home environment plays a very big part. Adopt a little one, is the advice of EGYPSY ANN.

PPORTUNITY Page Seven --- --- $45 GENUINE Page Eight Miss Randolph Going to Europe Miss Randolph Going to Europe Comedienne to Appear With Messrs. Ferguson and Whaley in New Show The many friends of Miss Amanda Ramblin, who has been at the Alhambra Theatre from the time the house opened, will learn with a great deal of pleasure that she is about to embark on a new venture with the scenes laid in Europe, where she will see many people like so many others before her. Negotiations have been going on for the services of the popular comedienne for the past few months, but it was a surprise to let the news be extensively broadcast through the columns of The Amsterdam News. When the popular and widely-known team of Scott and Whaley decided to separate, the two American entertainers living in London for a decade would do, but Whaley immediately disclosed his plans, which called for his appearance, along with Jimmy Ferguson, a writer in production, in which they will be featured. Mr. Whaley, after hearing so much of Miss Randolph, decided that she would be the woman to fill the bill and immediately go to the comedy club at the Alhambra Theatre. Unless unforeseen circumstances should arise in the interim, Miss Randolph plans to sail for London, England, on February 13, where she will immediately enter rehearsals for her play. While Miss Randolph has enjoyed a great deal of popularity at the Alhambra Theatre for the past two years, the very nature of the offerings in which she has appeared has seldom given her an opportunity to take the talent of which she is the proud possessor. She has done splendid work on the musical comedy stage in the past and is also a pianist of some note. Cast with those in a position to appreciate her talent, the immunity for displaying them, Amanda Randolph will yet be heard from in a bigger way. Eddie Hunter and 'Pigmeat' Lead Comedy at Alhambra It's a speedy pace of fun at the Alhambra Theatre this week, with Eddie Hunter and Pigmeat Markham leading a crowd of talent in Fast Fashion. It starts with dancing as little jockeys, ready for the race. Lillian Young, a favorite singer of the night clubs, and Fannie Hendrickson and Norman Woolf, with Eddie Hunter, were all applauded and recalled. Mercia Marquez, lovelier than ever, has a humorous duet with Ted Blackmon and, in answer to many requests, Manda Randolph sings the classic, "The Web of Love" brings the dancing girls out in unique spider- and fly costumes, in which they execute a very pretty dance that emerges from gorgeous bowers of huge red roses. The high spots of laughter are reached by the comedy-drama, "The Road to Reno," which deals with the divorce question in a most original manner. Hilda Offley and Artie Cain are restless wives who are eager to divorce their husbands, Thomas Moseley and Ted Blackmon, and so they join the place of quick and easy separation. At the "Journey's End," a Reno hotel which has a suave divorce lawyer conducting his business right in the lobby, the wives meet. There are many comical situations she faces, two husbands from an airplane right at the hotel door. Each wife takes a fancy to the husband of the other. So, true to nature, each grabs her own husband back—showing how we don't appreciate what we have until someone else wants. And if all ends in a girl's mother. Dashing jack Hoxie is the picture star in "Riders of the Law." The Alhambra Next Week "Flirtations" is the revue for the Alhambra next week, starting Monday. It promises a cast including sheiks and shebas, some new comedians and singers, steppers and struters. A drama of friendship, called "After Twenty Years," deals with three palms in youth and in middle age. They have sworn to friendship forever. Later, the others come of them to the electric chair, the others are powerless to save him. Two Outstanding Features At Renaissance This Week For the next two attractions coming to the Renaissance Theatre the management has secured two outstanding features, "Illusion" and "Harmony." This Wednesday, Thursday and Friday "Illusion," with Charles (Buddy) Rogers and sweet little Nancy Carroll will be the feature. This is the second presentation of those two popular works, "Illusion" and "Harmony," first being that huge success, "Close Harmony." And their second effort surpasses their first. The story, based on Arthur Train's notable novel, "Illusion," tells of the two formers. The man aspires to society life but learns his mistake in time to unite again with his old partner in the circus game, who later becomes his partner for life. You will enjoy this Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, January 25, 26, 27 and 28. Moran and Mack, famous as the Two Black Crows, in "Why Bring That Up" will be the attraction. Here is one of season's outstanding stars starring the famous pair and Evelyn Bryn. It is an interesting story in which the author, Octavus R. Cohen, has written a tense drama in a remarkable all-talking success. Regardless of what plans you may have for next week, do you see and hear "Why Bring That Up." AMANDA RANDOLPH ACCEPTS LONDON OFFER British Writer Resents Mixing in London's Underworld Londoner Shocked to See White Girls and Negro Men in Cabaret Londoner Shocked to See White Girls and Negro Men in Cabaret Daily Express "Special Representative" Opines They Are Women Who Despise Their Race and Paint the Worst Side of It From the London Daily Express THERE is in London's underworld a shabby little coffeehouse where white and black people resort after the publichouses have closed. It has one room, the size of a dining-room in an ordinary suburban Villa. The coffee bar adjoins it—a place of bathroom proportions. A long table runs along the window with a bench behind it; there are two other tables, benches round the walls, and some stray chairs. There were three Negroes and a white woman present when I en- trusted an ordered coffee from the obsequious proprietor, himself a Negro, and waited. ear to chin. He glanced away险境 in the garden, the dusky party in which the girl I words, "I'll say to start to gam- gage in deco collect yourself." So that was n. rition. I wished "it will be"; she said "it will be long; see you so an elderly plump English straw bag, and w I have seen films of the American underworld; I know something about them, but I had never imagined that a picture of this blatant variety existed in the center of London. Gradually it filled up with white women and Negroes and I had never imagined that a picture of suspicion, but it was also a piccion, a defiant suspicion. There was bravado in their attitude towards me, finely tinged with some kind of hat, and of the lover in "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" to Tess "husband—for I was of one race with these women, and these women had betrayed their race. I was sitting in the chair at my table, and asked if she might sit down there. I said she might, and offered her a cup of coffee. She accepted my hospitality. "We never seen anything like this." I said, after a few preliminary remarks about the weather. Haven't you seen her, she replied. "Well I saw it, would you be a stranger as curious. You're not round this part much, are you?" "Not much. But you know a lot of these men, don't you?" She nodded. "Oh, yes, I know most of 'em." "Tell me," I said. "go you like colored men? I mean. it has always seemed to me...' strange that a white girl should...' boy's a colored man," she said simply. A group of Negroes was gathered round the long table, talking loudly. The laughter was hearty. Capacious men were laughing, their teeth. Others broke from their conversations to dance spasmodically to their own singing. "And how!" was a frequent expression, uttered with exasperation. The propelator pushed his way through the mass, announcing musically that he was "funny that w-a-a-y"; and shouting for orders. The crowd was furious, their coat came in and greeted a Negro familiar; he was the variety known as a "spade"—that is to say, coal-black, as black as the ace of spades—and every crooked wrinkle in human reality seemed remodeled in his face. The door burst open suddenly, and three girls, talking at the top of their heads, briskly pushed the one dingy mirror, and began briskly to powder their notes. I had seen two of them previously that evening patrolling Shattersbury avenue. The girl who was hailed shrilly with "Hello, black woman!" by her white sisters. O-o-y-y! she bellowed—a deep cry to the crowd and a lady to come into. Look at your ceiling: it is a dirty ceiling! it's a nasty ceiling. George!—this was roared at the proprietor—"George boy, your wife is going to drink. A white girl wearing a herelook drink. A white girl wearing a herelook drink. A white girl that there was just five minutes before "they closed." They disappeared at full speed; and a little later she dragged brace of bearded Bacchantes. Living for the hour, grimming at life. "Have all these girls got colored boys?" I asked my acquaintance. "All of em," she replied. "My boy's outloud. You'll show you his photo. There is it." I looked at the postcard she had fished from her bag, and saw a tail, practically full-blooded Negro. "I don't like spades," she remarked carefully enough too black. "There was a trace of provincial accent in her speech, and she informed me that she was born in the eastern counties. She was twenty-three. Was she happy? Oh, yes, she didn't go with a while boy percussion to worry about. She didn't much to worry about. She was successful in her profession. "Of course, I make my living out of white men mostly," she said, "but I wouldn't go with a while boy percussion to think. Now a colored man always treats you well. He'll never let you go hungry. Naturally, I send my boy money for expenses—did I tell you he's on our with a theatrical comedy? No, he doesn't. I me share with him. I've got. "I hate that table!" she said abruptly. "Why? Because that's were they gamble. I gave my boy three pounds last time, and he came back with money. He's just luck, of course. One of the guys, and the ones, and he came in with seven pounds. He gave me a dress out of that." He gave her a dress. "And in the morning I found a razor. I saw him and knew him the safety kind the old man he been ready for a fight. I suspect. Looks of 'em carry razors—these girls, too. Me? No. I'm not that sort. But, do you know, there was a proper dust-up in here just before Christmas. There were razors. I saw them out came the razors, and three colored men got their faces shaded. "Two white girls started it," she added calmly; "they were jealous over a colored man. George here was jealous over a colored man. He got hurt. The girls had their razors, and they were just mad. I was giving a hand behind the bar, and I saw it all. Cool! What a mess." She nodded me. "Look: there's one of them into the tiny bar. His right cheek bore a strip of sticker: plaster from ear to chin. He glanced at me, and glanced away rapidly. I got up to go and heard, from the dusky party round the long table which the girl hated, the murrured words, "I'll say we'd be a lotta foos sitting with a policeman sitting in de corner, Kid, you just collect yourself." So that was my assumed occupation. I wished the girl good-night. "It will be," she said; "were all goo-colored, colored for me soon. So long: you see you name: An elderly woman—an elderly, plump Englishwoman, carrying a straw bag, and wearing, of all things in the world, a black bonnet—brushed the hair, a face, a face, caught a glimpse of susceptibility, but this woman was followed by a white girl—obviously her daughter. I came out under the sky. Thank God for the fresh air! The final article in this series will deal with London, preyed on and preying on others, the human links between society and the underworld. "Porgy" to Close in Philadelphia After Two-and-Half Years' Successful Run About midnight next Saturday night trains pulling out of Philadelphia after eight o'clock will be bringing back to town members of the "Porgi" and completing to town a half year of the work which also took them to Europe to win the acclaim of the leading critics on London's powerful and influential newspapers. The show completed a week's run at Werba's Theatre at Jamaica, L. I., last Saturday night and on Monday the next week's run in the "City of Brotherly Love." The work of the people in the show did not only reflect great credit upon each and every one, but served as the inspiration for one of the outstanding features of Lew Leslie's work which added a great deal to the show. Ignorance, which greets shows like "Porgi" by those among us still groping in darkness, assailed the production when it first opened, but as in all cases, merit will always assert itself, and in laying tribute to the author, that something else of the same kind will be created to repeat the success of "Porgi." After witnessing the show last week in Jamaica, Chester E. Durgin was greatly impressed and for those missing the opportunity of witnessing one of the most powerful speeches around and acted by Negroes, the reproduction of Mr. Durkin's reaction is given as a fitting close to show: "Two more acts follow, each with its share of human life and incidents of potentism. This spectacle shows that he is seeing something of deep significance" Porcy is a magnificent play, one of the important productions of our time. The presentation here is one of the biggest presentations we have to look at, and the theatre began here in Jamaica three years ago. "Right here I am tempted to get excited and talk wildly about its being everyone's civic duty to see the play in that position. Still hoping that might frighten some simple souls in the belief that 'Porgy' is something arty and literary. It has high artistic qualities and it is literature of a genuinely delightful entertainment and the best of all plays dealing with Neerlo life that has been written, directed and acted. The east is long, composed of all but a few instances of the playwright, all of whom do splendid work. "Let us not get 'Porgy' wrong" he tells us. "While it is one of the finest performances I have come across in twenty-odd years of theatre-going there is no need for a college degree to understand it. It is a penetrating kind, but honestly drawn picture of Neerlo life as lived in Catfish Row, a so-called section of Charleston, S. C. of obscurity or far fetched symbolism, as it is presented as living and vibrant human beings according to their kind. "They are pictured in their virtues and their vices, their religious frenzies and their hot lusts, their social acclimatization and their supersistitions—in a word, as human beings whose skins are darker than the majority of their fellow citizens of these United States. They are for most part children with adult bodies." Dubols and Dorothy Heywood have drawn these folk convincingly and symmetrically. "Porgy, described as a 'folk play,' is principally a series of scenes and incidents and the plot is the story of a young Negro it's reproduced within the two and a half hours that it took to present this play on the stare of Werbin's Jamaica Theatre. Catfish Row and its denizens live." He proves that the plot is slight and that it gets no great distance, but the spectator is dull indeed who has not been stirred to a wider realization of the lives of a section of population despised and unjustly subjected through it all patient and courageous. "The certain rises showing Gaffish Alley and its people at the close of a day's work. The men are hard working for the most part, with here and there a bully and a sporting man. The women work even harder, though among their number also there is one other, a crop girl, and others. A crop girl goes out. A man is killed during a row growing out of dispute. The following scene shows The New York Amsterdam News Local Democracy to Present Broadway Stars at Dance The Tammany Hall United Colored Democracy, of which Ferdinand Q. Morton is president, gives its annual ball Tuesday evening, Jan. 28, at the Tammany Casino, 138th street and Seventh avenue. The list of those invited looks like "Who Is Who" in the political life of the City of New York. All the executive, legislative and judicial members of the city government, every branch of the city government and the members of the Board of Aldermen, have been invited. Among those expected to attend are: Thur. Bishop John, Joseph V. McKee, President of the Board of Aldermen; the Hon. Julius Miller, President of the Borough of Manhattan, and Hon. John F.

They contribute according to their means toward the expense of the funeral. As they sing their spirituals to the awake mourners to take away the corpse and give the medical students unless it is buried by the next day. Finally, a sum is raised sufficient to pay the undertaker. Outside the building a shutter is opened by shaking the shutters and then the building itself as it grows more intense. As the light grows dim the mourners standing with uplifted arms still singing as they walk up the stairs upon the walls, the curtain falls upon a scene that is not easy to forget." Hartwell in Big Start at The Broadway Tonight Heavyweights will be on display at the Broadway Arena Tuesday night. For the feature attraction Matchmaker Tony Martello has signed Big Lots ad, to swap punches with Arthur De Kuh, the elogated Italian from Brooklyn, for ten rounds. Hartwell is the lad that Leo P. Flynn has been boosting for the past two years and according to wily Leo W. Gleason, his greatest colored heavyweight to deceive is since the classic title was held by Jack Johnson. He has fought all the leading heavyweights in the business, and only recently created a sensation in the gym when he hit Scott on a backhand. In taking on Do Kuh Hartwell will have an added incentive as Arthur was formerly under the management of Flynn, and if there is anything that Leo enjoys it is to see one of his former fighters get past around the ring. Martello hopes to close two other ten round bouts to precede this affair that will be of the same calibre as the feature attraction. Picture Dealing With Briny Deep at Douglas One of the screen's strongest and most pretentious romantic adventures is promised to the New Douglas patrons Saturday to Tuesday, January 25 to 28, when the "Mysterious Island" takes place. This under-seas spectacle took two years and four months to make. More than a thousand people are in the cast and the picture took over a million dollars to complete. Everything possible was done to make this picture a true "world's most intimate story" a great feature in every word of the word. "The Mysterious Island" may be truthfully called one of the most original stories ever filmed. It reveals the peculiar submarine of some under-sea people, a group of under-sea people, half man and half fish, and many other gruesome sights five miles below the surface of the sea. The uncanny battles between human beings in diving armor and the hordes of cold, bloodless demons that deep will chill you to the marrow. "In the Headlines," starring Grant Withers and Marlan Nixon, is a real pictureization of newspaper life. One newspaper man, many newspapers, is battling murder mysteries single-handed is revealed in "In the Headlines." Inumerable cases are on record in which reporters on large city daily papers have brought desperate crimes that are likely to have involved the mystery that has surrounded the crime. Despite this apparently uncanny display of "detective sense," the solving of such mysteries by reporters in the press is not merely their determination to get the news. Henry Austin's Band Music for All Occasions 488 Lenox Avenue Harlem 8028 Another treat which only comes once a year will be presented at the Playhouse Theatre next week in the 2013 Revue. This show is by far the fastest and funniest of the shows on tour. In addition to the large company of sterling entertainers which travel with the company, the moment is adding several new attractions to the show. These will include Minta Cato, Kohler, the human frog, and the well-known dancing Leonard Ruffin and Louis Keene. Fess Williams and Ada Brown at the Lafayette A jazzy band, one of the most popular of Keith entertainers, and a team of comedians are featured in this episode of the entertainment featurette the Theatre. The title is "Tan Town Tamales"; the producer Leonard Harper. The band is the jazzy, tuneful aggrievement of ceremonies, cornellist and all-round stage favorite. This is Fess's second appearance at the Lafayette Theatre and an even larger and more enthusiastic audience greeted him family and individual tunes of the show is scored by Ada Brown. Miss Brown is possessed of a fine voice, weighs about 200 pounds, dances the Charleston to the delight of the crowd, and the title of "Tan Town Tamales" are Swan and Lee, comedians, Roscoe Simmons, Little Bits Turner, Till Marshall and sixteen versatile dancers girls. The crowd is the weird, thrilling talking sensation, "Three Live Ghosts." There is also a Vitaphone dramatic playet entitled "Across the Dead Line," and a hilarious comedy by Miller and Lyles, two of the best known colored comedians. Wilson Crawley Goes Abroad Wilton Crawley, noted clarinetist, whose eccentric act secured him big time booking with Fulix's Theatres and Keith Theatres, is now in London for a six weeks, tour having been booked by the William Morris offices. Mr. Crawley will play the Pratidam and the Empire Theatres in London, and also at the exclusive Kit Kati Club where Sophie Tucker won fame. If his tour is successful, Mr. Crawley will go to Paris and later into Germany for a more extended trip. His present contract calls for a nice figure and is one of the largest sums paid a single. Completes Bust of Ethel Waters Tony Cellini, noted Italian sculptor, has completed a bust of Etli Waters, and it is reported sold it to Carl Von Vechten, the man who put Harlem on the map. Van Vechten's wife, Scinia Marinoff, was largely responsible for the Ethel Waters and which swept New York some two or three years ago.

Vincent Thomas in Town In the days when the Howard Theatre was enjoying its greatest success under the management of Andrew Thomas, with Rufus Byars as house manager, and Lewis Thomas at the head of a splendid orchestra, Vincent Thomas, brother of Andrew and Lewis, also worked at the house in the box office and was one of Washington's most popular young men. Recognizing the trend of things in the world of the theatre, young Thomas decided to resume an abandoned course in pharmacy and today he is the successful proprietor of one of the best drug stores in the District. Columbia, where he comes from last week to attend the funeral of the wife of his brother, Lewis, who died in Brooklyn and was buried Tuesday morning at eleven o'clock.

An Outstanding All-Talking Success LAS THEATRE Phone Edgecombe 8012 4 DAYS ONLY Read the Harlem Sketch Book, by Lewis N. W The Harlem Sketch Book Comment and Gossip of the Uptown White Way By THEOPHILUS LEWIS. Harlem is a motley place With a multitude of ways, Where gents and bums and burcau- Pack all-night cabarets. She has her Congo witchmen, Her Caribbean crowd, Some who jazz and guzzle gin, While some in prayer are bowed. She has her throngs from Dixie, Brazil and Suriname. She has her stately churches And houses of ill-fame. And if there's much confusion And whispers of alarm, Still, in this varied struggle Lies Harlem's magic charm. This Avenue of Ours JUST as all roads of the ancient world led to Rome, all the currents of Harlem life flow toward Seventh avenue. The Avenue is the epigale city's parade of fashion, its hub of amusement, the focus of its night life. At most of the churches, and the biggest ones, are either on the Avenue or only a few steps away, the thoroughfare is also the main artery of the town's religious life. . . . Eleven o'clock Saturday night, when the throngs are out for hours of joy, the Avenue is the Uptown White Way. Eleven o'clock Sunday morning, when the multitude are bound for worship, the street is Tan Town's Holy Way. . . . What a difference a few hours make! . . . Arena of politics, stock exchange of ideas, market-place of beauty, auction room of youth, clearing house of gossip—that's our Avenue, . . . Leonard Swings From the Hip LEONARD HARPER and Irvin Miller, the ace producers for the Lafayette, are in a mad competition to see who will be first to put a girl on the stage dressed in her one-piece birthday suit. Last week, in his Desires of 1930, Professor Miller put a jolly dancer in the spotlight stripped down to breast shields and loin cloth. In this week's Tan Town Tamalles, Impressario Harper comes right back at the Miller with a gal peeled down to red slippers, nipple plates, a string of beads and a loin strip. It's Irvin's move. Let's see him beat that one. ULYSSES MAYS says the language of love consists of only two words: Give me. AT LAST the secret why construction was stopped on the Masonle building in 144th street has been revealed. Scientists are trying to discover how long structural steel will resist exposure to rust and weather. Art MADE a trip down to the International House Sunday afternoon to the Harmon Foundation art exhibit of works by colored artists. Somebody is all damp about this art business. Maybe its the painters, maybe its the folks who award the prizes, maybe its yours truly. The grand prix of the exhibit was awarded to William H. Johnson. This painter seems to have a flair for the grotesque and deformed in human stature and expression. Three of his six canvases are portraits, one of which is of himself. His self-portrait is obviously intended to be the likeness of genius being consumed by its own fire. I didn't like it. One of his other portraits is a gnarled gnome and the third and last. No. 9 in the catalogue, is the figure of an aged black consumptive. This last one is the only picture of his group I liked. His other pictures, according to the catalogue, were landscapes. I am not in a position to argue about their merits because I could not tell what they were. Left to my own judgment, I would say they were just old pieces of canvas he had used to dry his brushes on. Either that, or house painters had been in to do over the apartment and had upset their buckets. Which shows, I suppose, that I do not know anything about art. At any rate, I gathered as much from the general trend of random remarks overheard from the lips of other spectators. Every picture I thought was worth writing to Cousin Hattle about was called "obvious" by the lady on my left or "facile" by the gentleman on my right. The principle seems to be that if the picture of a man looks like a man it isn't art. But if it looks like a head of lettuce that's been dropped in a pan of purple Tintex, then it is art. Guess I'll have to take low and go back. THE Exhibit Prize for sculpture was awarded to Elizabeth Prophet for the "Head of a Negro," done in wood, probably because the subject was dine in an appropriate medium. She Knows Her Waltham His life would make a colorful book. He has been soldier in the Philippines, teacher in an Alabama college, president of a college in Louisiana, preacher in Pittsburgh, military chaplain in the A.E.F., and finally candidate for assemblyman in a Harlem district. He is on the down grade now, but he still wears his cutaway with an air and swings his cane with a flourish. . . . She is an actress who has been employed for several years in one of the exclusive night clubs. Perhaps her life would make an interesting book, too, but it never will, because she keeps her story to herself. Anyhow, they met, they loved, they are going together. The other Sunday they spent the afternoon with some friends in Jersey and during the visit someone asked him what time it was. "I haven't got my watch with me," he replied, and promptly forgot the incident. But the girl friend remembered. "I was humiliated," she said when they were Harlemward bound on the train. "You, with your college language and swell clothes, but no watch." "It's nothing," he interrupted her. "I just broke my watch yesterday and left it at the jeweler's to be repaired." "Yeah?" she yawned. "Well, to make sure you have it next time we go out, just give me that pawn ticket and I'll get it out of the jeweler's for you." Types I Don't Like Women, accompanied by 120-lb. husbands, who pick quarrels with 190-lb. stevadores in the subway. Knowledge Hounds AMONG the interesting types plentiful in Harlem a conspicuous place must be reserved for the perennial student—the fellow who is always taking a course in something or other. His favorite hungouts are the Dark Tower, the Y. M. C. A. foyer and the Y. W. C. A. cafeteria. Usually he is either a little bald or a little grey, but he goes without a hat, wears horn-rimmed glasses, affects a soft collar and collegiate tie and carries books under his arm. His average age is 43, and he has been studying for this, that or the other degree since he was 17. He began the scholastic life in some normal school in the sticks where he prepared for college. He got his M. A. at Virginia Union; took pre-medical work at Meharry; dabbled in law at Harvard; went in for engineering at Columbia and pedagogies at Howard; dropped down to Atlanta for philosophy; swung north to Wilberforce for political science and is now back at Columbia working for Ph. D. in sociology. A picturesque, droll and pathetic figure, he has all knowledge at his finger tips and he is always hard up for his room rent. The Wild Old Set If you've heard this one before, stop me. It's about Myrtle and her ma, who are supported in style on Strivers' Row by her daddy, who is one of our bigger and better actors. Stage blood runs in her veins and Myrtle is a gay one. Still she knows when to call it a night and start hiking for home. One balmy night last summer she went for an auto ride with a vagabond lover, who was in search of a little thrill each evening. Myrtle was not in the mood that night and the gent was not burning gas for the pleasure of looking at a girl's profile. When the showdown came she hopped out of the car and started for Harlem on her I. Millers. When she reached home and limped into the hall it was broad daylight; her shoes were worn thin, her stockings were covered with the dust of Fordham The New York Amsterdam News. N. Y. TIMES GLEE CLUB SCORES AT CASINO What Does the Negro Theatre Really Contribute? nearly all the attributes of a god and then is apparently puzzled at man's perverseness and wickedness. He is greatly angered and becomes a God of vengeance and destroys all except Noah and his family. After the flood, Noah and his family leave the ark and repete the earth. Again man falls into the ways of wickedness. God is wrought. He looses the vines of His wrath upon the people. Gabriel advises God to again destroy the offenders. God is made to grieve for this wayward people whom He loves because they are His handiwork. From grief and suffering mercy is born, and God realizes that only a God of love and mercy can redeem mankind from its sins. There is nothing we take so seriously as we do our religion. And it seems that the less we know about it and observe the tenets of it, the more seriously we take it. Every man's and every people's religion should be respected. There is only one class of religionists that deserve contempt, the hypocrites. No man's religion should be mocked if that man is sincere and practices what he professes. Mr. Connelly assures us that in writing "Green Pastures" nothing was farther from his mind than the thought of ridicule. He believes that the simplicity of religion and the childlike faith in God of our forefathers was one of the most beautiful demonstrations of modern Christianity. King Vidor was censured for his representation of our religious enthusiasm in his halleujah scene of "Halleujah." Many declared that none of our people ever acted like the scene depicted them as acting. The writer has seen them act worse or better, it is just as they felt it and they should not be censured. We have seen them pile their hats and coats in the middle of the floor of their meeting house and dance in a ring about the pile, singing and shouting in an excess of religious frenzy, so it seemed to us at the time. Road and her mother had begun to worry in a serious way. "What on earth has happened to you?" asked her fond ma, alarmed by her disheveled appearance. "I went for a ride with a cad and had to walk home," Myrtle explained, kicking off what was left of her shoes. "Haven't I warned you about riding with strange men?" her mother scolded. "When I used to go riding with your father I never walked home." "Mother!" Myrtle cried, drawing herself up haughtily. "I never dreamed you were that kind of girl!" LAST Thursday was the tenth birthday of national prohibition. The event was appropriately celebrated with reverent drinking in all the Avenue saloons. THE Siren of the Tropics, the imported French picture featuring Josephine Baker, is a schnozola. I sent a delegation of spies to the Lafayette last week and the consensus of their report was that either Miss Baker can't act or the French do not know how to produce a picture. At the tail end of the week I made a personal inspection of the alleged photoplay for the purpose of checking up on my under-cover people. I found that their reports were correct in every detail. The sound effect of the picture is 1928 steam piano variety, the continuity is 1913 Perlis-of-Pauline model, the plot is unfolded in 1910 John Bunny-Flora Finch style, and the photography is just what that kind of picture deserves. The acting is the sort one would expect of a cast of Hollywood extras, excepting that of Miss Baker. Her performance is hard to describe. The closest I can come to telling what it is like is to say that five minutes of her acting in an American studio would cause the director to hit her in the head with the camera. Miss Baker has her best moments when dancing. She is a spirited comic hoofer, but even in her hottest moments she isn't any halleujah. There are a score of American hoofers, of both the chocolate and chalk varieties, who can prance her out of the picture without getting hot and bothered. I have a notion that if she had remained in America where passionate steppers are plentiful she would never have a sensation. An American director, given an actress of Miss Baker's talents, would build her up so that her dancing would stand out and at all other times keep her back or profile in front of the camera. He would teach her to register fear and sadness with gestures, for when she tries to express pain with her face she gives the audience a pain. Miss Baker will never crash the films in a big way unless King Vidor enters her life. THEY are passing the word along the Avenue that both the orchestras now playing at the Savoy are not worth the echo of Fess Williams' saxophone. TWO sisters who live in lower Harlem relate a strange experience with a squirrel coat, which seems to be under supernatural influence. The coat, an expensive garment, was left to them by a deceased aunt and is the only article of her personal property that remains in their possession. The sisters say that unless the coat is hanging in a certain closet no one in the house can sleep. If the coat is left lying about the house, say over a chair or on the cofa, everyone is seized with a strange resiliessness, which makes sleep impossible. The moment the garment is returned to its closet the tense feeling immediately disappears. A week or so ago the husband of one of the sisters decided to put an end to the strange disturbance by selling the coat. He offered it to a woman in the neighborhood for a dollar, and she was delighted to get such a handsome coat at such a give-away price. Three days later she returned the coat and demanded her money, back. When pressed for a reason she replied that she had not had a good night's rest since the garment had been in her possession. And the previous night, she continued, she had awakened from a full slumber to see the shadowy form of a woman bending over the chair across which the coat had been thrown. The coat is again in possession of the sisters and they are determined to keep it in the closet, where it seems the wrath of its former owner desires it to be.

WHITNEY "GREEN PASTURES" is the name of the new race drama that began rehearsals Monday for a Broadway presentation some time about the middle of February. The book is by Marc Connelly and will be produced by the Lawrence Rivers Co. Inc. Mr. Burt, manager of the independent Colored Theatrical Agency at 169 West 133d street, has assembled a superior cast of dramatic artists. At least 100 persons will be featured in the presentation, including Hall Johnson'a famous spiritual singers. It will be a spectacular production of stupendous proportions. The cost of the scenic equipment alone is estimated at $60,000. "Green Pastures" is, to the writer, a sort of religious fantasy done in episodes. A devout, simple-minded colored preacher of the early South is telling the story of the old Bible to a group of children. His faith is as steadfast as the mountains and his Christianity as pure as the crystal streams that find source in their virgin snows. He tells the story in the quaint and homely language of his people and employs the symbols, metaphors, times, places and customs with which his people are acquainted to illustrate his meaning. The intensely interesting and dramatic scenes of the old Testament are depicted upon the stage as the sincere old preacher tells his story. God creates the earth and peoples it. He finds everything as He would have it except man, the price of His creation. He has endowed man with Grand Josephine Strange Interlude Times Glee Club In First Dance We have seen them clothed in full-dress suits with the long swallow tails and huge purple wings suspended from their shoulders, parading along the streets of Philadelphia. Yet, the rest of the Christian world has no reason to laugh. To our mind, the religion that inspired them to act so unseemingly and dress so out of mode was far superior to the brand of Christianity that inspired the inquisition, countenanced slavery and still closes its ears to the howl of the lynchers' mob. White Workers With Powerful Daily Joined in Making Merry at the Renaissance Some of those who will appear in the cast of "Green Pastures" are Richard B. Harrison, Daniel Haynes, S. T. Whitney, J. Homer Tutt, Alonzo Fenderson, Lou Vernon, Arthur Porter, Jay Monday, Jay Sutton, Edna Harris, Jimmy Fuller, Clarence Redd and Dinks Thomas. A complete list of all persons booked with the show will be given next week. Lleut. Eugene Mikell and his New York Times Glee Club made their second appearance in Harlem last Friday night when they staged a dance at the Renaissance Casino, which turned out to be very successful. The last time the aggregation of popular singers appeared here was on the occasion marked by the presence of Mayer James J. Walker when, through the courtesy of the New York Times, they appeared on the bill of the midnight show staged by the dramatic editor of The Amsterdam News for the benefit of the Harlem Children's Fresh Air Fund. A DELICIOUS Chittil'in supper will be served at the Florence Mills' Theatrical Ass'n next Friday evening, Jan. 24. All members and friends of the association and performers employed at the theatres and cabarets are cordially invited. The supper will be served from 5:30 p. m. till 4:30 p. m. in order to accommodate those playing midnight shows and working at the cabarets. Don't miss the gastronomical treat of the season. While it was not carded on the program, the club added to the spirit of the occasion by suddenly appearing on the dance floor and rendering two or three numbers which took the house by storm. Vernon Andrade and his orchestra furnished the kind of music for the dance which has made the organization very popular. Under the personal direction of Leut. Mikell, former bandmaster with the famous "Hell Fighters," the club has rounded out into one of the best aggregations of its kind. THE SCRAP-BOOK, donated to the association by J. Homer Tutt, is missing. It is difficult to conceive how anyone could have mistaken this large book for a pocketbook or a vanity case and carried it away. We are certain that someone borrowed it and forgot to ask permission for the loan. The scrap-book was of unusual beauty and design and it represented a year's tedious and painstaking labor. The pictures it contained were collected over a period of from 15 to 20 years. The book is of inestimable value to Mr. Tutt and the association and of very small worth to the person or persons who carried it away. The association will give a generous reward for its return or for information leading to its recovery. Enjoying the personal patronage of Mr. Adolph Ochs of the Times, the club has broadcasted so often to Commander Byrd he has made it a point to compliment the men for the splendid work. Lieut. Mikkell is one of the most efficient musicians in New York City, he has wide experience as teacher, composer and tainer, band leader and handed down his accomplishments to his two sons, who are doing exceptionally well as musicians. Up to the time he decided to lead the musicians of the 369th Infantry, Lieut. Mikell was in charge of the band at the Bordentown Industrial Institute. Although many are not aware of the fact, the genial lieutenant was the now to come here at the head of the now widely famed array of youngsters at Jenkins Orphan Asylum Band, a work which he assumed after splendid services at Tuskegee Institute in the days of the late Booker T.

Prelate in Plea for Tolerance Bishop Thirkield, Former Howard President, Asks for Understanding in St. Mark's Sermon-St. James' Plans Youth Week "The Negro is the most thoroughly American group we have today," declared the Bishop Wilbur P. Thirkield, white, former president of Howard University and of Gammon Theological Seminary, in a sermon Sunday morning at St. Mark's M.E. Church, 138th street and St. Nicholas avenue. "Nothing arouses me more," said Dr. Thirkield, "than to hear a group of immigrants, the Inz on whose citizenship papers has not thoroughly dried, discuss at length what shall we do with the Negro." The Negro is American in both spirit, and ideals. Pleading for a spirit of tolerance and understanding between the different racial groups, the prelate said: "America has been called the melting pot of nations but the races have not been taught to love each other in this melting pot. Love must be the force to burn us together. Every man must be a neighbor to his fellowman regardless of races, color or creed. "This spirit of neighborliness must be translated into both national and international affairs as well as into our personal relations. May God hasten the day when every tongue which utters the epithets of Dago, Gago, and Gago must be broken. We must break the bonds of selfishness for life is no broader than our relations with others." Mrs. Thirkeld, who for many years has been national president of the Women's Missionary Society of the M. E. Church, was introduced to the congregation of St. Mark's by the pastor, Dr. John W. Robinson. She spoke briefly of the increased work of the church today as compared with their work of former years. With its 2000 members enthusiastically supporting a program for the stimulation of business and the professions, Williams Institutional C. M. E. Church, 218 West 130th street, on Sunday will register members and non-members engaged in these types of enterprises. The Rev. Noah W. Clark, pastor of Williams, instituted similar programs in Jackson, Tenn., and Dallas, Tex. The church has published a annual C. M. E. conference here in April. The Negro has the first right to Christianity and all other religions because he was the founder of the first churches, declared the Rev. Maximo F. Duty, speaking Sunday morning at St. Cyprian Church, 175 West Sixth-third street. The evening service Sunday at Hubert Harrison Memorial Church, 149 West 130th street will be given a discussion, "Health and Disease," by Dr. Lucien Brown. Church Alces Praised.

Church is effecting the reorganization of the New York Christian Institute, the church school whose progress was halted by the long illness and death of the former pastor and principal, the Rev. Preniss A. Bryson. Church Plans New Vocation Program Christian Institute to Be Reorganized by Wiliams' Pastor Plans for the reorganization of the Williams' Institutional C. M. E. Church school, formerly known as the New York Christian Institute, were outlined Friday by the Rev. Noah W. Clark, newly appointed pastor of the church, in his office at the church building, 216 West 130th street. Dr. Clark, a native of Augusta, Ga., succeeds the late Rev. P. A. Bryson of Chicago as pastor of the church. "While no formal name has been adopted by us as yet," said Dr. Clark. "I like to think of the work as a better community movement." Our efficiency program will include a course in domestic science and through this course we hope to make better cooks both in the home and of those who earn their living by cooking. "Our facilities at present include a complete printing outfit and instruction will be given to all those who are interested in learning the art of printing. In addition to this, there a motion picture machine which will be used to produce images to those attending the school. "All the teaching," said Dr. Clark. "will be specialized and the main feature of the school will be its religious educational work. All instruction will be given free of charge and anyone may attend the school regardless of their background. We plan to serve the entire community and to press everyone into service who can help up." While the faculty has not been selected as yet and the whole movement is in a state of complete reorganization, Dr. Clark declared that the church school would soon be opened to the public and that housing, health, amusement and vocations are but a few of the problems which will be considered by the organization. The school will be conducted in the church building and some activity will be engaged in every day, with some classes meeting in the evenings. ST.

Hazel Harrison In Recital Hazel Harrison of Chicago, who for a number of years has, had the reputation of being one of the best Negro paints, added another star to her crown by reason of another well-paid program Sunday afternoon at the International House on River Ridge. Although the auditorium was not filled, there was a select and appreciative group that brayed the trudged weather and sat listening to Miss Harrison's exhibition of digital money and technical agility. The program opened with the Liszt "Variations on a Bach Theme," which was very interestingly treated and very well played. Three Chopin Preludes and the Scherzo followed. The third group comprised two examples of "program music," the "Legend of St. Francis Walking on the Waves" and "The Trout"—both compositions of Liszt and mitative in character. The former was a musical delineation of the legend suggested by the title, the latter a musical description of the antics of the re.t. Miss Harrison's playing of this group must have painted an extremely vivid picture to even the most unimaginative listener. The fourth group was very similar in style to the third. "Color Impressions" by Laszlo, a modern Bohemian, after the fashion of several modern Frenchmen, has endeavored to show that tone can be altered. These modernists have evolved some interesting experiments, just how effective the color impressions will be is yet to be determined. Theories in other branches of art and science may perhaps be evolved and indeed forced upon us, but one can muster up the courage to handle on hearers. It is after all left to the mind of each individual to receive impressions in its own way. This is anite, tempered slightly by various influences, but always essentially the same. All of this, however, has nothing to do with Miss Harrison's playing, but rather a demonstration by explaining and skillfully playing this number. The last number was "Fantasy Oriental" by Balakryk. This was indeed at the hands of Miss Harrison an example of technical fluency par excellence, still clarified for more; hereupon Miss Harrison responded with the Liszt "La Carpennelle" and the Chase. These were glittering, garrling and at times almost dazzlingly brilliant from beginning to mrs. Carl Diton's presentation of Harrison was a treat to the public. breaks and Sings The monthly musical service at the Fourth Presbyterian Church, West End avenue and Ninety-first street.

He explained the difference in dialect songs and spirituals, saying that the Stephen Foster songs are not folk songs, but the art songs in the folk song manner. He further said that the spirituals are not supposed to be funny as so many people interpret them. These songs come from the hearts of a simple, ecstatic and humble people. They never express anger or resentment—the sorrows of the slaves being more likely felt by simple yielding—but they express the joy of love, faith, hope, deliverance and sometimes melancholy. These slaves had visions, imagination, creative ability and an endless resource of tunes. Although these people had no knowledge of musical form, in many instances the text coincides with the music. The Americans are just recently realizing the musical material, which is of so much value to the composer. Then they learn the cultural value to the homes and to the public schools where these songs should be taught. Mr. Burleigh has probably done more than any other musician to create among the different races a respect for the cultural value of the spirituals. He sang "I Know de Lord's Laid His Hands on Me"; "I Stood on de Ribber of Jordon" (an excellent example of a vivid imagination); "Go Down in de Lonsome Valley" and "De Gospel Train." "Hundred Trouble, I've Seen," "Nobody Knows the Word," "Christ Be With Us," "The Promised Land"; "The Swing Low, Sweet Charlot." The soprano soloist sang "Go Down Moses." Mr. Burleigh has been arranging and singing these spirituals for thirty years or more and he still retains his excellent baritone, thus giving in song the proper interpretation of a text. Merrill Dames On Program The Gold Medal Winners' Club sponsored a recital at the Feagin Concert Studio in Carnegie Hall, fifty-six street and Seventh avenue, Sunday evening. Merrill R. Dames, tenor, the only Negro in the club, sang two groups of songs. He was accompanied by Miss M. Cuselo Pappy. Mr. Dames' numbers were: "Und Willist Du Deinen Liebsten Sterben sheen" by "Woef: 'Beau Soir' by DeBordt, "Woef: 'Beau Soir' by Alr" by Arne; "Don't You Weep When I'm Gone" by Burleigh; "Water Boy" by Robinson, and "On Mah Journey" by Boatner. Dramatic Reading And Song Recital It was very appropriate and befitting that Dr. Ethelred Brown substituted for his regular Sunday evening religious services this particular program, the dramatization "Thus Spake Aristotle," by the philosopher, Phineas K. Harnett, a memorial to our late orator and philosopher, Hubert H. Harrison. The Hubert Harrison Memorial Church, also a temple and forum, is located at 149 West 136th street. James E. Phillips, dramatist and basso solist, rendered this reading with special songs between the acts. As a dramatist and reader, Mr. Phillips was able and authentic. As a basso solist, Mr. Phillips performed his four songs "Invocation to Life" by Gilbert Spross; Sidney Homer's "Lone Dog" and "Requiem" and Hatton's "Simon the Cellarer." An announces Program An elaborate concert has been arranged for the monthly free band concert of Lieut, Fred Simpson's Monarch Symphonic Band, Sunday afternoon at 3, in the auditorium of Girls' Junior High School, 135th street and Edgecombe avenue. Dayga Regina Harding will be the soloist. She will be accompanied by Ruth Vreeda Pearson. These concerts will be held on the last Sunday of each month until Woodstock Modern Typewriter for Modern Business It was built for the business of today. It was designed to excel all other machines in efficiency, to complete and round out big business organization in its standpoint of neatness, speed, accuracy and satisfaction in work done a little better than it was done before. Woodstock Typewriter Company Branch Office: 434 Broadway, New York City, N. Y. William Pickens SAYS CANP. (For the Associated Negro Press.) WE HAVE always held that the word "charity" is the biggest misnomer in the dictionary. Now, here writer Walker of New York City publishing House is the world that he is going to give back to the people, as "charity" what the people will be compelled to give him as excess salary. It is like this: Mayor Walker was being paid $25,000 a year, which is as much as the Governor of the State city is paid, who, by the way is the highest paid governor in the nation. But Mayor Walker his administration voted to raise the mayor's salary to $40,000 a year for the next four years. This extra $15,000 per annum will, of course, be the people, but the mayor is to get the people, including charity in handing it back to the terms and back to the promotion of his own popularity and party interests. This is the most direct exhibition of American "Pharisaism" yet on record: just as if I lift a certain amount of money, which I do not need, out of your pocket, and then out of your pocket and then expect your calculation and experience else his praise of me as a "charitable" though I took the money from you without your consent, and abstent I mean to give it back in ways that suit me, not necessarily in ways approved by you. It is certainly a smooth trick. It is the charity bumche of our great peer-philanthropists. It takes a politician to add the finishing touches. We have long been accustomed to the spectacle of great capitalists, who might sheep a few thousand small sheep on their Street of a few million dollars their own. They it out in libraries, with the capitalist's name carved on all of them; or of those who, with a blowing of trumpets, endowed a few colleges or other institutions and then razed the price of oil for a hundred million dollars to the people we were agape, admiring the "philanthropist" ingenuity, he put his hands back into all of their pockets and took out a bit more than he had "donated." But there is one thing to be added: Mayor Walker and his kind are just that much better than the other kind who "take it and keep it." May and they are free to the public. 1.

Nathaniel Dett, will tour Europe during May, it was announced today by the officials of Hampton Institute. It is felt that the singing of Dr. Dett's Choir in Europe will have a large international and interracial significance, especially in those countries. African possession is the capacity in music which the Negro is manifesting under the opportunity for development which is now being offered in the United States, will be an important contribution to good-will, it is felt by backers of the trip. The Hampton Institute Quartette will have a part in the project.

THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 22, 1930 Radio News and Programs BY RICHARD L. BALTIMORE There are uncertainties why it is advantageous to know the power construction of a radio receiver. That the power consumed by an electric receiver, which means nothing more than increased RB bills, should become higher when a higher powered and more natural power is used. More tubes and higher voltages mean more current in the system. This is drawn from the power line, and represents so much electric current supplied by the power company. The Inverter, which can supply much higher powered than his old ones should expect a larger electric bill. The fact that a receiver consumes much current does not mean a declerency of design. If one wants power, some devices have a very high current, the volume output of a receiver is adjusted by the operator at home has little to do with the power consumption of the receiver, since it varies very little if it is adjusted for maximum or minimum volume, since the power consumed is that represented by the devices which supply the operation of the receiver. The operation of the various tubes in order that they may be in an operating condition, even if the tuning control disks are not designed for the reception of a certain station. The increased consumption of power in a radio receiver is represented by the number of tubes used and the operating potentials. Thus, it is possible that an amplifier using but few tubes will consume more power than a receiver employing a greater number of tubes, because the amplifier is operated at much higher voltages and more current is consumed. The application of a high potential (operating) and for the attainment of greater output because the power output of a receiver is function of the operating voltages applied to the tubes in the receiver. The greater the plate voltage applied to a tube, the greater the signal output from that tube for a unit value of input signal voltage. The receiver manufacturer who offers a high powered receiver for sale is not selling a cat in the bag. It will cost more to operate such a receiver. But if one desires the power he must hear the operating cost. As it happens, the cost for even the most powerful electric set available at the present time, neglecting the factor of convenience, is not than if the set were operated from a battery. When a statement in order to dispel the idea that the latter operated receiver is cheaper in the long run. As a matter of fact, the reverse is actually true. Expressions have been recorded relative to the power consumption of elec- tric machines, even when the same is not the same. However, the differen- tive receivers of different manufacture, but similar in type and power output, is very little. The same applies to the same organization in this respect, and recalling what was said about the reason for power consumption, judging that it is not a safe method of comparison. A better method is the type of tubes employ- ed. An illustration of what we mean, we refer to one receiver employing seven tubes with a -11A in the output stage. This receiver consumes 65 watts. This same organization manufactures au- dustors with a -4 in the output stage and consumes 90 watts, approximately 60 per- cent more than the first. The latter is far more powerful than the former, because the type of tubes employed provides increased sensitivity and more power. The list receivers is about 82 between the two receivers is about 38. The operating expense is appreciable.

Y' Drive Starts; 1929 Report Made Parker Launches Crusade for Deficit — Taylor Explains Aims While 100 workers swung into their task of raising the deficit expected under the 1930 budget, Thomas E. Taylor, executive secretary of the West 135th street branch Y. M. C. A., yesterday made public the annual report of the Harlem Association. The report showed that particular emphasis was placed upon employment service in 1929, with 472 persons being given positions through the association bureau. This number was above the average placed by the branch, according to Mr. Taylor. Citing the purpose of the Harlem "Harlem, with its activity and its life, has been studied and surveyed probably by more groups than any other particular section of the city. Advice has been given but the pleas of Harlem in many cases have gone unheeded. The leadership of Harlem knows what it stands in need of far better than those who are looking at it from a distance. "If these well-wishers and friends of it would but harken to the voice that comes from within the group, they will hear not a cry for pity; not a plea for charity, but a strong, plaintive request for a sympathetic understanding, a plea for an opportunity to not alone in the menial positions of life, for the small wage is paid, but a chance for the boys and girls who have been trained in the schools of the city side by side with other groups to live with the star of hope in front of them, freed of that unchristian attitude that deprives them of the right of manhood because they are black." With Henry C. Parker, realty man and chairman of the branch at their head, the nine divisions, composed of fifteen teams, are seeking $5,500, which is about 5 per cent of the budget. The rest of the income is to be made up in rent, membership fees, cafeteria and social activities. INTERNATIONAL HOUSE 500 Riverside Drive (Near Grant's Tomb) SUN.

The formal celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the West 137th street branch of the Young Women's Christian Association will be inaugurated tomorrow evening with a dinner for the members in the cafeteria of the association's plant. Dr. Channing H. Toblas, senior secretary of the National Association of Y. M. C. As., will deliver the address at the dinner, which is to be the first in a series of affairs to be given throughout this anniversary celebration. This branch of the Y. W. C. A. was organized in January, 1905, by a group of three women who felt the branch chose as its first headquarters a house at 169 West Fifty-third street. Two years later the branch again moved to 143 West Fifty-third street and about a year later established a boarding department. The aim was to provide a comfortable home at reasonable rates for the young women living in the city. Filling a need which in former years had been lacking, the association added classes in physical education and an employment agency was added to the work of the institution. Training in the household arts began before that time. Moving uptown in 1915, the branch was housed for the next four years on 132d street and in early January, 1920, it moved into the modern five-story building it now occupies, at 179 West 137th street. In 1925 a modern woman's hotel, with accommodations for 165 girls, the Emma Ransom House, adjoining the Y. W. C. A. building the opposing new building was named for Mrs. E. S. Ransom, wife of Bishop Reverdy C. Ransom, who was chairman of the branch for fifteen years, from 1900 until 1924.

Best Sport Pages in Greater New York State Teachers Team Drop Second Game in Series MONTGOMERY, Alabama, Jan. 14. After having 3 wins in 3 starts to its credit, the cage outfit of the Alabama State Teachers College played games to the Morris Biow University five of Atlanta, by a 25-12 score, at Dillard Gymnasium Tuesday afternoon. The teachers failed to exert themselves previous night when they drubbed the Atlanta bunch to the tune of 29-18. The swift passing attack employed by the Atlanta cagers seemed too strong, and Blue quintet took a lead from the tip off that they never relinquished during the entire period of the fray. The Hornets put up a very stubborn defense and be denied them. The first period ended with a 13-7 count for the invading quintet, and despite a strengthening on part of the teachers in the second part, the visitor ran up more markers before calling it a day. Captain Bradley of the Atlanta five, unanimous choice last year for All-Southern center honors, played his first game with the ball will over the court with the ball in his possession. Daughtery also was a player. For the offense, sinking 3 kinks. For the defense, with a stolar game at guard, while Lewis and Murray did the bulk of offensive work.

The Y boys had a good passing manning, but lacked the ability to shoot although they drew first blood, but the local team was ahead at half time, 10 to 7, and boosted its lead to 11 after Montclair staged a little rally late in the game. The half ended with a score of 17 to 7, favor of the Tigers. The Tigers 36 to 21 victory was attributed to center.

Walker of the Saints shot a neat basket from the middle of the court amidst a conglomeration of shots and head shots in the first period. John Smith of the Ravens retaliated immediately with a nifty shot under similar conditions, and from then on Coach Dotson's boys held full command of the situation, brilliant shots of John Smith and Lonney Owens. Oris Hinton, the much vaunted local star, failed to produce even the slightest sign of a fist. There were three substitutions for the Saints and six for the Ravens.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. Jan. 16. In one of the most thrilling girl cage games of the current basketball season, the Hornets of the local Sacramento team were a powerful girls' team of the Industrial High School of Fairfield, here tonight. From the initial tip off to the finale the contest was loaded with excitement. The Fairfield aggregation led in the annual tournament, the greater part of the first half, 6-5. Just before the whistle for the half, Peters, whom critics claim a candidate for All-Southern center, sank one from the center of the floor, putting the location of the foul ball in the center. Trimble, the teachers hit their stride in the second half and chalked up 16 markers during this period of the fray. The coaches between-the-half talk must have been stimulating, the teachers did, the tip off, dribbed her way under the basket and tossed one. She immediately followed with two more and from then on, the teachers were masters of the situation, the Fairfield girls put two more field goals and one foul, foul. Nolan and Saunders were the visitors' individual stars while Peters and Trimbic continued to uplodge their ballots in the high point honors for the two games, with 6 field goals and one foul shot and the latter following closely with 5 field goals and 4 foul throws. This was the second game of the season, and they lead a triumph recorded over the lassies from Lowndes County Training School by a 14-3 count, here last week. The Alabama State Hornetes journey to Normal next week to take on the girl drummers of A. & M. Institute. Senior Boys Defeat Eastern On Saturday, Jan. 18, the Senior Boys took a second victory in the Y. M. C. A. League for boys. Carlton's team had very little difficulty in out-passing and out-shooting the boys in the end of the first half was Carlton 18. Eastern District 10. The offensive drive of Carlton during the second half took Eastern District off their feet. Led by the wonderful shooting team, the second amassed 23 points during the second half of play.

Coming back to their home court after their journey to the wild and woolly West, where they experienced the best of the game, seen in basketball, the Renaissance, world's colored champions, trimmed the Newark Triangles last Sunday night at the Renaissance Casino by the Newark Triangles. Playing every night for the week and traveling back home after their game in Cleveland Saturday night, Bob's charges were a little ragged from wear and tear, but the Newark Triangles were no match for them nevertheless. The Newark team, as most all New Jersey quintets, possessed some very good shots in Glick and Moskowitz, but the Rens' defense was as much a puzzle to them as it is to all teams, and it was almost impossible for them to go through. The Jerseyites started the Rens' defense was as much of the game, but soon as the Rens warmed up to their task there was no doubt as to the outcome. The visitors were only able to shoot three goals in the first half, which ended 80 to 31. Honors were even in the second session; both teams, while not brilliant, both scored five goals.

Wilberforce had an uphill fight all the way except for a few seconds at the start of the game, and scoring in the first minute of play McTeer making a free throw off of Scott's foul. The veteran Lion Tamers outpassed, outthrew, and outstalled and outgunned the Wilberforce tossers. They made them to make most of their pass far over the heads of the Green and Gold. Wilberforce's margin of loss is represented by the number or free throws missed; out of eight attempts only six attempts four baskets were made; out of six attempts four baskets were made by the Lion Tamers. Scurry replaced Gibbs at forward and played a "jam up" game in his first try in big time. Carol Lucas was high scorer for Wilberforce, dropping four backsides. "Rock" dropped six for the Lion Tamers.

Carlton Five Defeats Bedford On Saturday night, January 18, Carlton's senior team in full force won the fourth victory in the Senior League. This victory places in a tie with Prospect Park who also won four games and lost four. The New York Amsterdam News edge in this half by sinking one more free try from the foul line than the Rens, getting 9 to 8. George Flail, the prodigal son, returned his first goal, which signalized his admission to the Rens' combination by a brilliant endeavor. Pappy Ricks lost his father during the week and was given a layoff by Manager Douglas, who pressed Flail into serenity after the evening's high scoring honors. Moskowitz of the visitors, with 14 points, led his team. Next Sunday night the Palace Diamond team of New Jersey will be the first to score in the Metro-Diamonds and Monitors will perform in the preliminary. On their western trip the Rens were only able to win two out of five games, winning their first game at FT. Wayne, 40 to 21 and losing the second 24 to 29. They then went to Chicago, 24 to 21, and then to Bruins, 24 to 22, and 26 to 25, at this time encountering the original Caut. Kidd among referees. In one of the games played against the Bruins 18 fouls were called against them and nary one against the Bruins. This is almost an unheard-of situation in professional basketball. We expect the Bruins to win many times, but we also expect a half-decent break from the referee. We are not making any alibis for the Rens The Roped Arena Boxing bouts in prospect for this year not only promise to fill the three vacant world championships, but may produce an entirely new list of division titleholders. Recognition of a heavyweight champion during 1930 is assured by the ruling of the Muldoon-Tunney Committee, which has named Jack Sharkey, Phil Scott and Max Schmeling as recognized contenders. Scott and Sharkey meet at Miami, Feb. 27. The winner will fight-Schmeling by September. The vacancy in light-heavyweight ranks caused by the resignation of Tommy Loughran will be filled by the Jimmy Slattery-Lou Scouza bout at Buffalo next month. The New York Commission has agreed to recognize the winner as world's champion, but orders the winner to fight Maxi Rosenstein in New York, foremost within 60 days. Black Bill, of Cuba; Midget Wolgast, of Philadelphia, and Ruby Bradley, of New Jersey, are the survivors of the New York tournament to defend Bradley and Wolgast and are to meet at Madison Square Garden soon. The winner will be matched with Black Bill. Inasmuch as Frankle Genaro, Willie Lamore and Yvon Trevedic of France, all of whom have a claim to tourney, it will be necessary for the winner to defeat them. Mickey Walker, king of the middleweights, is regarded as the most likely of present champions to retain tourney, for another year. Wolgast, Ghanaian Jackie Fields faces a serious threat in Jimmy McLarnin, hard hitting Vancouver battler. Matchmaker McArdle of Madison Square Garden hopes to pair the two for this summer tourney, the heaviest weight champion, is faced with the dual problem of increasing weight and serious competition. If he remains in his division he will be called upon to defend his title against the winner of the tournament, which Tony Cannonzoni, Jack Berg of England and Al Singer are entered. Bat Battalion is under contract with Madison Square Garden to defend his title against Kid Chocolate, of Cuba, March 10. Al Brown, of Panama, is recognized by the New York Commission and the National Boxing Association as the heaviest weight champion, but he will be called to defend the title against Teddy Baldock, of England, and Kid Francis, of France. but we will leave it to the fans whether or not a condition of this kind does not look suspicious. After leaving Chicago they journeyed to Cleveland, where they defeated a colored team in that city by the score of 22-20. The preliminary game last Sunday night the Chicago Defenders secured their first victory of the season in an Eastern Colored Basketball League game, when they defeated the Camerons 35 to 30.

Newark Elks Win Pride of Newark Elks, one of New Jersey's leading basketball teams, defeated the Newark Scholastic team (white) 45 to 21 at Dreamland Academy last Sunday night. The Elks and the Newark team were the winners of the first half of the Elks' League, having won 22 games out of 25, and will receive a silver loving cup. It is noth-ing the boys shoot goals. The Scholastics were baffled through the game by the clever passing of the Elks, but they took their medicine gracefully.

The Seasiders but three minutes before the end the Chester boys rang up a series of baskets to make the score 32 to 28 in favor of Jack Morris (5). To tip the balance the other way (and in those hectic last minutes fate ruled), it is probable that a tie would have revealed. But in putting the Chester lads well ahead, even then the Elks threatened as they frantically chased the mounting score. It was anybody's game in the half, so close and fast were the plays. Half time found the score 17 to 11 in favor of the Monmouth Elks. The second period opened up with fast balling and played out. The finally frustrated the Chesterites' scoring moves. Finally L of the big 5 placed a brilliant shot and only to be seceded by second. With Flaming substituting in center the Elks' defense broke and the opponents began to climb. A last minute flash of brilliance and the attempted restoration became another enheme restraint. The Elks were fast through out the entire encounter. The Elks furnished most of the speed, as the Chester boys played a nasty pass. The Elks passed and fast dubbling—in fact the fancy work at times was costly.

Roban was high score, with 10. follower Baume of the All Stars, with 9. On Friday night the Flashes proved too much for the Clark House Juniors. The score was 30-14. This was the best game of the four. The fiercest playing of Mitchell Williams and Montgomery helped a great deal. Young Tiger Flowers No Match for Eddie Benson Eddie Benson retained his armory heavyweight crown last Friday night at the Fourteenth Regiment Armory when he knocked out Young Tiger and won the second round in seconds of the third round in the main bout of 12 rounds. A crowd of 5,500, including Primo Carrera, gigante Italian heavyweight, saw Benson door Flowers with a terrific left to right.

The boys of Harlem have their work cut for them. However, the Jamaica boys haven't done a thing but win sixteen out of a possible eleighen games so far this season. In most of the games at the finish they usually were leading their opponents from here to Kalamazoo and back. Not bad, eh? This fine record proves the work of Coach Peyton. (He was a former Carlton star and all around a star in the NFL.) Such worthy opponents, included in this fine string of victories (they have won their last nine games), are the Trenton T. Bear, the Jacksonville Beta Sigma, who were claiming some championship or other until the Jamaicans met them. By past performance and their string of victories, the boys from Harrington are planning to bring a large delegation out to see them shatter the Jamaica team's fine winning streak. The Panthers have their view of the game, so do I as wait the returns and compare alls. We shall see. We shall see. Line on the Jamaicans The Panther quinte' big three are Captain Walker, Gholston and Goodall closely followed by Kelly, McNell and Herdon.

The final score was: Bruins 22, Rams 22. Although the Bruins had beaten the Renaissance in Chicago last year, here was little hope that they would repeat Wednesday night, because of the Rams' built up this year, which included 49-21 win over the Bruins. in the Bruins began their game in a manner which indicated that they themselves on their home court. The Renaissance team, which has been knocking over the American League teams like pins in a bowling alley, has been able to make their own strenuosity to make their offense certain and their defense alright. As a result, the Bruins, led by a young high-school star out to make their right-to-nothing lead and kept the Renaissance from scoring for the first 60 minutes, when Pappy Ricks got his pose for his first marker, which was a tip-and-seed Satch, the Bruins had used their head at the end of the first half, in 4. The floor work of the colored champions had completely dazzled the white boys, and the white boys had been shooting the BORDENTOWN SHAKES OFF JINX Defeats North Jersey Team for the First Time in Many Years MONTCLAIR, N. J., Jan. 18—In what started off as a slow and unintriguing game, but which developed into a thrilling game, the basketball before the close, the Wildcats of the Bordentown School defeated the Big "Y" Five of the Montclair, A. A. here tonight, and the North Jersey quintet shook off A. A. before the North Jersey quintet had on the schoolboys. The game was characterized from the start, though the shooting of both teams was erratic. The Montclair outfit got to a lead when Tucker and Jackkirk dropped for a trifle. Hilton, after the fall, won the turned the compliment and a laterate green came down the court with a beautiful loop shot that advantage in the game, but never resumed for the rest of the game. Reading 10-9 at the end of the first ball. Bordentown increased this advantage - 12 at the close of the third quarter. Montclair made a determined bid on victory in the closing minutes of the contests, and Tucker and Jackson came up short. The contests amount to 29-25. Here Spruel called one out for Bordentown, and the shoebobs resorted to the freezing time when in the middle blew. Hill and Spruel, both veterans from last year's quintet, were the big hits for Bordentown, counting up to 10. The team resigned in diminutive William Quinney institute, get into the varsity line for the first time and celebrated the occasion by locating the basket poles. Ferdinand ace for the Montclairites, was closely covered by the opposing guards and failed to score in his usual form, leaving the brunt of the contest on the floor. The "X" team was distinctly below in its sharpshooting, and after time set-ups were missed through over-anxiety on the part of Penske they forwarded. Penske handled the contest in his usual style. Les Chevaliers Defeat Fast Upjohn Big Five, 25 to 16 Last Tuesday evening at the West 14th street gymnasium Les Chevaliers, by a spirited rally in the second half, defeated the speedy Uplogin Big Yankees by the second half.

The first half was featured with strong defensive power shown by both teams. The ball being kept in bounds, team being able to penetrate their opponents' defense more than several in the first half. Score ending first half was 11 to 10 in favor of Les Chevaliers. The second half the Chevaliers by last season passes were able to squeeze through Browne, slipped away from Mulligan and dropped one on the side line. M. Harris followed soon after with another two-pollinator, then on Les Chevaliers held their lead on the second half, up a total of 14 points to their opponents' 6 in the last half.

New York quickly cut down the Bruin lead to four points, and from then on the game was a rough, gruelling battle. That the colored fans felt the influence of the referee aided the Bruins. The Bruins were repentedly given questionable possession of the ball, and the referee really. This factor forced the Renaisance to be always seeking to get the ball only to lose it on some ruling of the ball. Thus the game ended; the Bruin edge was earned in free throws. The basket throwing of Bramhall and the floor work of Ely were big hits for the Bruin triumph. Ricks and jenkins starred for Renaisance. The lineup: BRUINS (24).

He was too fast and rushed the fight all the way. Barra, a southpaw, who defeated JJ Browne, won the finals, met a tougher opponent in Ray Myers to lose a close decision. The best exhibition of the night was between Chester Matan and Phil Gavrik that lasted only one minute and fifteen seconds of the first round, the second round, and the final, giving it to Matan by a technical K. Q. Matan rushed out of his corner and began hitting his opponent from all angles with both hands. Gavrikli tried his best to stem the tide, but he was unable to stop. Knockout and he soon sent Phil to the canvas with a hard right. Gavrikli got up at nine and Matan followed him, swinging both hands. Just as Phil was about to sink to the mat again, Matan jumped and the 118-pound class title was won by Vincent Velentl when it took him four rounds to beat Arthur Weinberg. Charley Alvarez, Knights of St. Anthony, won the 135-pound title by knocking out Harold Jackson. Salem won the semi-final and then winning by a technical K. O. over Patsy Pascull in the final.

The other two women, Katie Lohman and John Forster of Manhattan, both whom had 125-yard handicaps, beat Ritola to the tape. Ritola was timed at 9.32.

Willoughby and Myrtle avenues, Brooklyn, on Thursday evening, Jan. 30. This will be the second of a series of interfraternal matches to determine the New York State championship. The Tallms have thus far triumphed over Alpha Phi Alpha, regarded as one of the best quintets in collegiate circles, and, should they succeed, they will certainly to endow the borough with their first championship in a number of years. Omega, with Burke Horne, Rob Bowards, and Stretch" Archer, center, and Bill McCoy, Hip and Bouches Day, guards, should give the Tallms the fight of their lives. Indeed, Bouches Day's aggressive plowing and defense could not match the Brooklyn machine. He has a supporting cast that is quite likely to do this. However, despite the presence of College of the Holy Cross University center and forward, Alpha could not match the pace set by the Tallms; therefore, Omega may meet a like fate. Scoring but six points, Alpha thirteen in the first half. Alpha usually succumbed by a 30-10-21 count. Another great contest at center is expected when the ball is tossed up between George Day and "Stretch" the pivot position. Day, in the Alpha game, proved his mettle when he and Gregory stole the spotlight from their cohorts by their clever floor play and the Tallismen present an evenly balanced lineup, with the scoring aces, Herrdon and McClammy, at forward. Day at center and the backward at midfield at guard Herrdon and McClammy as the forwards that brought to Concord the championship of the Brooklyn Sunday School League. Ray Turner, Jose Long and "Buddy" Walker and the four of Calumbers that are as capable as any of the first named five. There will be a preliminary game between St. Phillip's and St. Peter's at the first round attempt to settle the rivalry that existed in the Sunday School League fostered by the Carlton Y. M. C. A.

Well appointed automobile trucks and special automobiles are called into service to distribute The Amsterdam News every week; large and commodious offices are maintained at 1658-1660 Fulton street, phone Haddingway 9054, which are on the principal business thoroughfare of Brooklyn, and a competent office staff always on the job to serve our people, all conspire to place The Amsterdam News in a position where it is absolutely unnecessary for it to resort to any other method of counteracting any move made by those hostile to this paper because of the success it has enjoyed and which it has every reason to feel it will continue to enjoy in the future. The classified columns of The Amsterdam News, and a Brooklyn and Long Island page which brings its highest tribute by the imitation of others, speaks louder than anything that we can say as to where those desirous of arresting the attention of the people in the communities above spoken of will place their advertisements. Jupiter Hammon Before the New York African Society By ARTHUR A. SCHOMBURG Late Secretary Cuban Revolutionary Club, Las Dos Antillas, of New York City DURING colonial days New York City had a considerable number of Negroes in relation to the entire population. Under the British regime their numbers increased due to the impending naval battles in the West Indies for supremacy; the city was the naval base of their operations to replenish and revitalize the ships of the line. The city was also employed on such ships in various capacities such as sailors, powder men, carpenters, officers' attendants, etc. They made the city, Brooklyn or Baltimore, the center of the interval of repairs for relaxation and at the end of their services many remained on land for good. What is considered today the financial part of the city was the camping at the first Negroes who lived in Manhattan. Outstanding in achievement in those early days were a few Negroes such as Rev. John Marrant, who was born in New York City in 1761, and took part in the mission to Christianity, Bank battle fighting for the English; Black Sam, the caterer and owner of Francis Tavern now the headquarters of the Sons of the American Revolution; Peter Williams, the sexton and Methodist Church, a soldier of the revolution, but does not come within the category as entitled to belong to the exclusive society, was the father of the founder of St. Phillips's Protestant Episcopal Church now in Harlem, the Hammam, the gentleman slave of the Lloyds family of Oyster Bay, L. I. the Brooklyn and Long Island News that certain people are in this paper to withdraw and either paper trying to get into it in Kings and Queens. Resorting to this method of many well wishers of this away to call the Brooklyn and advise the manager of Amsterdam News will make in of that service which has the leading publication, not land, but throughout the eastern America.

Before the New American Society SCHOMBURG—Revolutionary Club, Las New York City followed by a second edition and the third came from Humphreys press in Philadelphia. A footnote states it was originally read before the above noted committee of Philadelphia citizens that the book was printed and circulated in the City of Brotherly Love, because of the merit it contained. The poet was a very much admired and courageous soul, blinded or for the slaves to do the work, and had no other alternative, to win the reward as he had done from his master. On the other hand he was canidled to admire and sustain the free Negroes and their descendants to fight against them, and they had bought or won it by meritorious services. Had he been young with the opportunities of his days he would have craved like them for freedom. Isn't it a pity that no efforts were made to preserve the memory of this apostle, earth's nobleman, the earliest poet of our freedom? To a white German-American, Charles F. Heartman of Metuchen, N. J., is due the credit of perpetuating the memory of this sible poet. After having brought out the Phillis Wheatley memorial, he asked my opinion of going into the Jupiter Hammon venture as an added feature to his series of monographs. He selected Oscar Wegelin, one of America's most noted critics and bibliophiles, to prepare the monograph, Mr. Wegelin has done a most credible work. He cared so much that the facts available in the Mr. Heartman presented a copy of the work to the late President Theodore Roosvelt, who in turn gave him an autograph portrait with a letter that Jupiter Hammon was a trusted servant in the family of the poet. He was a descendant. Heartman was complimented for his unselfish interest in the Negro race of America. As Negroes are reluctant or indifferent to purchase books that chronicle the worthy deeds of their own achievements, the Jupiter Hammon collection is limited to those hand-made Fubrano paper and ten copies on Japanese vellum, it sold at five and twenty-five dollars respectively. The entire edition has long been out of print and not enough to go the rounds of the principal libraries of America. II. THE society before whom Jupiter Hammon照 his now famous admirable collection for the late J. P. Morgan, paid $450 for a poor copy, is none other than the oldest social society among Negroes in the United States. The remarkable and surprising fact is that it is still strong and vigorous in the age of 1808 the members of this society applied for state incorporation papers but the BASKETBALL GAME The Talismen vs. Omni Thursday Evening Preliminary Game ST.

The society historian Zullie says, "The Assembly of the State of New York on Feb. 22, 1810, did incorporate the New York African Society". However, the New York Laws for 1810 state: "The petition of the New York African Society was reported that the petitioners having associated for mutual relief Mr. Brower did bring in the bill entitled 'An Act to Incorporate the New York African Society for Mutual Relief.' It seems that the legislators weren't satisfied with the name as presented by the petitioners. Its corporate existence is dated March 19, 1810. In the Laws of 1812 appears the Wilberforce介nthropic Society incorporated on June 8, 1810, on behalf of dent; Thomas Skipkins, treasurer, and Thomas Miller, librarian. These gentlemen were highly noted in their days and generation, in the New York Public Library and the New York Historical Society are to be seen the printed works of the "Abolition of the Slave Treaty," which was a great event during the years of 1808-12. Thomas Miller was the pastor of Mother A. M. E. Zion Church. Later on the Negroes of New York and Brooklyn had the following societies incorporated: the Clarkesons, the Union Society and the Woodman Society of Brooklyn—all these sprang from the New York African Society. From the ranks of these institutions came the individuals whose names are still with us through their descendants representing many generations. The first president of the African Society in Brooklyn was to be a son of Alexander Hamilton. It is rather strange to note the strong family resemblance of the Hamiltonians. There is one of these older persons still living in Brooklyn showing a vigorous interest in the picture and place it close to Turnbull's canvas hanging in the New York Clearing House you will see that he cleaves to the line of a remarkable prototype. William Hamilton was a most unique individual; he bore the name of the African Magazine for over a year with two beautiful engravings by Bartain of Alexander Dumas and Ira Aldridge in Titus Andronicus; it was the best extant example of printing that has not unknown it was changed to a weekly paper, which also was ephemeral. He served as chairman of the convention of colored people held in this city during 1833 and was fearless and brave enough to pay homage to his pen. He lived most of his life in Brooklyn. Henry Sipkins was no mean person as a writer and churchman; he was one of the pillars of St. Philip's Church. Alexander Grummel, whose wife was a member of the society during 1813, in an unpublished MSS. sermon pays eulogy like a Bosquet to the memory of Henry Sipkins Sidney, his fellow student with Henry Highland Garnet as one of the most promising Negro youths of his day. There were George DeGrasse and William Boll, the marble embosed tablet bespelling his worthiness. Cato Alexander as restaurateur for the aristocracy of those days whose name is embalmed in the literary works of contemporary writers. Phillip A. Boll, the editor of the gold rush of the roaring forties in California. James Vark. Christopher Rush, bishop. Peter Williams, Jr., into whose church the members of the New York African Society marched in 1808 to hear his famous oration on the abolition of the Slave Trade. Peter Williams, by carved and extended beyond the columns of The Amsterdam News. The Negroes that belonged to these early societies were unusual for the prescribed and limited scholastic facilities. They were men of character who did thirst for us to be proud and brave men; there is scarcely a line of human enterprise a Negro did not prove his capacity to have and to hold; tangible evidences remain of sterling worth for us to emulate. It is hoped that African Society for Mutual Relief will see the light to broaden their vision by expansion, giving a deserved opportunity to the younger men to join and help safeguard the institution that runs parallel with the formation of the African Scientific Society of scientific methods that will redound to the boys and girls of tomorrow; a trust to keep and a heritage to perpure it in a reflected glory as a memorial of those black men who stood the test during the burning of the city against the awful prescription and outrages of 1740 and 1862.

He would have been still more his death on the gallows, he cou sand Union soldiers singing "m marched to battle. "ILL be damned!" is not good form in in Kansas. Out there they say, "I'll be John-Browned!" Men's immorality takes curious forms, and if old John Brown of Asawatomie could return to life he would be surprised to find that his chief memorial is a mild oath. He might be delighted, for men can pay a man no higher tribute than to swear by him. He would have been still more delighted if, three years after his death on the gallows, he could have heard a hundred thousand Union soldiers singing "John Brown's Body" as they marched to battle. John Brown was one of those men who built better than they had built in the battle of slavery. Garrison, Summer, Phillips and other Abolitionists meant to destroy slavery by peaceful means; John Brown realized early in his life that slavery had to be washed out in blood. In a talk with Frederick Douglass he said: "No political action will ever abolish the slave system. He has to go out in blood. Those men who hold slaves have ever forfeited their right to live." moved to Kansas. This territory was the great battleground of the war, and antislavery. Instead of arbitrarily antislavery, as Kansas as a lips and other Abolitionists meant to destroy slavery by peaceful means; John Brown realized early in his life that slavery had to be washed out in blood. In a talk with Frederick Douglass he said: "No political action will ever abolish the slave system. He has to go out in blood. Those men who hold slaves have ever forfeited their right to live." These are the words of a fanatic; but nothing less than a fanatic could have done what John Brown did. No philosopher, no wholly sane man would have made that crazy stand at Harper's Ferry; in fact, no wholly sane man could have accomplished any of the great movements of history. The world owes much to its madmen. One cannot escape the impression that John Brown was an instrument of God. His whole life led straight to Harper's Ferry. He was a man of great intellect. Wankee, his grandfather fought in the Revolution. Once prosperous, the family gradually lost its fortune, and when John was born they were poor people, wandering here and there to find a decent living. His parents moved to a farm in a tannery. He wished to study at Amherst College and become a minister, but his eyes failed. He married and raised a large family, but he never made money, never had any luck. He tried farming, real estate, the wool business, banking, horse raising, he went to England, France, Germany, Flanders. In spite of a keen mind, fierce energy, terrific courage and an iron will, he was a poor business man. He was always in trouble; his career was a series of bankruptcles, losses, lawsuits; he should become satisfied with embezzlement and other forms of bad faith. It looked as if God did not intend him to succeed, lest he should become satisfied and be turned away from the plans God had for him.

This territory was the great battleground of the slaves and antislaves. Instead of arbitrarily admitting Kansas as a free or as a slave state Congress permitted the Kansans to decide which it should be. The result was that Kansas was held with assault, arson, robbery and the territory was known as "Bleeding Kansas." In this guerrilla wore John Brown, who had settled at Osawatomie, became the leading figure. Utterly ruthless, he thought that a slaveholder had no rights that a free-solder was bound to respect. In his implacable mind, pillaging and murder were right if practiced, and the goods and persons of people who owned slavery. He delighted in raiding plantations, running off slaves and taking them to Canada. "Old John Brown" was a name of terror. When he was 59 years old to started his greatest and maddest venture. His plan was to arm the slaves and start a general slave rebellion. He took a band of men to Virginia, and seized the United States army under Napier's Perry. This was treason pure anything, but to John Brown anything, right if it struck a blow at slavery. As any child could have foresaw the plan was folly. The arsenal was besieged by state militia and finally stormed and taken by United States troops commanded Colonel Robert E. Lee. John Brown was tried, sentenced and hanged. His death set the nation afire. Even the antislavery men who condemned treason were swept ally by forces set in motion by the mad fanatic. His purpose of rousing the country succeeded. In two years there was civil war and the Union army was singing "John Brown body is amouldering in the gray but his soul is marching on." To the crowd he touched it in a word: John Brown was the soul of antislavery. Robert Penn Warren's book is a much argument as biography. After a few pages the reader knows that it was written by a Southerner, and as it goes on the Southern blas comes out bitterly. The author has never a good word for all of the enemies of slavery and never a bad word for its friends. As if the enemies of slavery tried to hang him on every page, Embezzler, horse thief, murderer, liar, hypocrite, casuist, egotist, swindler, panhandler—these are a few of his caressing names. He refuses to mention such things as Brown's kissing a Negro child his way to the gallows, or the saint "John Brown's Body," or the final effect of Brown's martyrdom. The book ends with an exultant quip about the power of Virginia! All such enemies of the Union! All such foes of the human race! But even through these unfriendly eyes John Brown looks like a mountain of moral grandeur. The author only brightens the flame that he tries to quench.

FRANKLIN B PARK ROW, NEW YORK Room $25 Phone Barclay $25 FOR LEASE Quick Action Free Consultation Deal with the reliable Harlem Mortgage Corp. 1472 Broadway Suite 1114 NEW YORK CITY Tel. Brvant 6638 Chain Store Head Lauds Employees "Color, creed or race do not matter to Mr. Stanley or myself in the selection of employees for our stores," J. Goldstein, white, superintendent of the Stanley Grocers, Inc., a chain of Harlem stores employing all Negro managers, told The Amsterdam News in an interview Friday at one of the stores, located at 2312 Eighth avenue. "Our employees are just as efficient as any we could get anywhere. We have six stores now in Harlem and are planning to open many others within the year. For the success of the business on more stores which Stanley, Inc., open only one thing is essential, and this is the ability to secure additional men. It will be as faithful and as efficient as those we now have. If these men should prove themselves to be only 25 per cent as capable as our present staff they will be a success." The Stanley stores are neat and wholesome looking, with their red fronts, and cater to the purchaser who, despite his limited means, demands foods of quality. Ten cents is the maximum price of commodities at these stores. They are located at the following places: 203 West 145th street, 2312 Eighth avenue, 125 Lenox avenue, 327 Lenox avenue, 2 West 16th street and at 80 East 116th street. The organization, according to Mr. Goldstein, is planning an entertainment and dance for all Stanley employees, to be given during the latter part of March. KONJOLA MAKES SALES RECORD IN 48 HOURS What is believed to be a record in the history of the prepared medicine business is reported by the Mosby Medicine Company, Cincinnati, manufacturers of Konola. In 48 hours, during the week of June 11, orders for fifteen carloads of Konola oil were not the result of a special sales drive, but the orders poured in during the regular course of business, when many great wholesale drug companies sought to replenish their stock after taking the customary annual inventories, it was stated. Certainly such an order, coming from various sections of the country within the company, accompanied G. H. Mosby, president of the company, "is a fine commentary upon the far-reaching effect of the newspapers that carry Konola copy." Commercial Items PITTSBURGH—Depositors of the defunct City Banking Co., which crashed here some four years ago, will have their second dividend check next week. INDIANAPOLIS—The annual conference of department heads, traveling representatives, and salespeople of the Mme. G. J. Walker Mfg. Co. has been held in this city.

Miscellaneous of Other Secret Order Societies Argument in the motion to dismiss the suit which Knapp and DePasso, builders of the ill fated Masonic Temple in West 144th street. Masonic Hall Masonic Fraternity of this street heard in the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court last Wednesday. Harold R. Medina, attorney for the Masons, argued that the builders are arguing to sue the grand master and proprietor of the statutes of the entire order. The suit is for $288,000 damages and cost plus interest, which the builders allege they have suffered through the failure of the craft to go through with the construction of the former grand master. The decision not expected to be known for several weeks.

Liberia May Have Outlawed Slavery WASHINGTON, Jan. 20. In a report of the Forest Policy Association prepared by Randall Leslie Buell, white, the association's research director, on charges now under investigation that slavery and enforced labor exist in Liberia, it is pointed out that the inquiry, announced in August, has been so delayed that the Liberian Government has had time to remedy the alleged conditions. The investigating commission consists of three persons, one each appointed by the League of Nations, the United Nations and the Liberian Government. Two of the three members of the commission are Negroes. The United States represent is Dr. Charles S. Johnson, a professor in Fisk University. Mr. Buell's report said it has been charged that the Government of Liberia, an independent republic, uses compulsory unpaid labor for road construction and other public purposes. It has been charged that in some cases natives were compelled to work nine months out of the year and that they were obliged to furnish their own food and tools. At the international labor conference of 1929 the Liberian delegate denied such charges and the labor was paid and that road construction was carried on by "companies working freely and voluntarily without any constraint." The report further states that "serious charges in regard to forced labor for private employees have been made in regard to Liberia. It is de- Underselling Everybody!

It is charged that the Spanish authorities pay a fee to the soy farmers and that this fee is divided between the high officials of the Government at Monrovia and elsewhere. "Misgivings have also been expressed in regard to the ultimate effects of the Firestone rubber plantations. Commenting on the fact that the Firestone company pays a fee to the chiefs and to the Liberian Labor Bureau for each man recruited, the International Labor Office at Geneva declares that 'fears have been expressed in many quarters that this man in practice, one of forced labor. This is possible danger not only because chiefs are accustomed to levy forced labor for roads, but also in view of the fact that it is estimated that the scheme will necessitate the employment of 300,000 to 350,000 native laborers, while the total population of the country is reported to be only one and a half million." Charged with mistreating a 15-year-old girl in whose home he was a roomer, Joseph Williams, 26, an expressman, 19 West 128th street, was held in $500 bail for trial in Special Sessions when arraigned Thursday in Harlem Court before Magistrate Ewald.

Alonzo Parham Alonzo Parham "If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you— If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, Yet make allowance for their doubting, too—" IF YOU CAN DO THAT, as Kipling has said, you'll be a man. And a man is what Alonzo Parham, the Negro cadet at West Point, has proved himself to be. He was dropped from the military academy for deficiency in mathematics. Because of the circumstances, the undeniable color prejudice and the persistent cold-shouldering, some men in Parham's place would have been tempted to whine, or to break out in angry denunciation. PARHAM REFUSED to do that. He manfully says that he flunked and that is all there is to it. Replying to hints of race prejudice, he calls attention to the flunking of sixty white cadets with him, and scorns the suggestion that those cadets were dropped just to exclude him. ANYBODY can hold up his head in victory, but not everybody can bravely accept defeat. Parham's conduct shows a fineness in which his race may well take pride. Alimony Racketeering Alimony Racketeering AFTER MANY YEARS a determined attempt is being made to end the alimony graft. Assemblyman Samberg has introduced two bills to amend the present law, which the assemblyman thinks imposes an unfair hardship upon the man. Through no fault of his own a man may lose his health or his job and be unable to pay the amount of alimony stipulated by the court, yet he has to go to jail for non-payment. In cases where the alimony proves to be too heavy the man is denied a reduction. THUS A TEMPTATION is offered to vicious or revengeful women to put a man in jail or cripple his future. It is against the spirit of American law to jail a man for not paying when he is unable to pay. The law of the land says that no man shall be imprisoned for debt, but the alimony statutes, as they stand now, imprison hundreds of men for debt. THE PRESENT LAWS were made to protect good wives from brutal or irresponsible husbands; but the good wives have not been the ones to profit most by them. The laws have become the instrument of gold-diggers. Under them, a woman can make her husband's life unbearable, can nag him into leaving her and can then collect an alimony which in many cases he cannot afford to pay. And if he does not pay it in full she puts him in jail. Mr. Samberg's bills provide that men who are unable to pay shall not be put in jail. If they are passed a great wrong will have been righted. Not Grady's South Not Grady's South FORTY YEARS ago the nation was acclaiming Henry W. Grady for his famous speech, "The New South." The speech was misnamed, for what Grady envisioned was not so much a new South as a return of the old South, which had been devastated by the Civil War. The only essential difference was that the slaves were legally free; but this difference was minimized by the fact that their wages as free workmen were expected to be next to the nothing that they had received in slavery. Grady foresaw a new hopefulness, a new prosperity for the plantations, and the triumphant return of King Cotton. THERE IS, INDEED, a new South, but not the one that Grady expected. It was born of the industrial revolution and the World War. The South is turning more and more from agriculture to manufacturing. Northern manufacturers, attracted by the laxity of the Southern labor laws, have been moving factories South. The usual consequences have followed: the docility of Negro laborers has been supplanted by the strikes of white laborers, and Communism is striving for a foothold. Of particular significance was the plank in the Democratic platform of 1928 subscribing to the protective tariff. Nothing could have shown more clearly the growing industrialization of the South. THE PLANTATIONS suffered further in the World The Marriage Bar War, which made a great gap in the supply of Negro agricultural labor. The great Negro migration to the North left many a cotton field to run to weeds. In addition to this, foreign competition started to grow; New Englanders began to import cotton from Egypt. This, too, was a factor in the South's sudden conversion to the doctrine of the protective tariff. The sugar plantations suffered from the Spanish-American War, then the United States took over the Philippine Islands and let their sugar crop into this country without a tariff. That is why some Southern Senators want the Philippines declared independent and therefore subject to tariff duties. THERE IS ALMOST a new South in the changing attitude toward lynchings, which have declined in number from one a day to less than one a month. Though liberalism and scientific inquiry have made but little progress, they are probably on their way. There is a new South, but it is not Henry W. Grady's. conqueror of German East Africa and former premier of the Dominion of South Africa, has awakened interest in the plight of the natives of that region—a plight that is much worse than that of the American Negro in the darkest part of the South. It is impossible to give even an outline of the South African situation in its many phases—racial and economic—in a short article, but here is the situation in a nutshell: A population of some 1,750,000 whites finds itself among another of 6,500,000 blacks. The white has firmly made up its mind to live at the expense of the black and, in order to do this most effectively, it is using its armed power, backed by that of the British Empire, if necessary, to keep the blacks at a stage where the utmost can be squeezed out of them. Here are some of the disabilities these Negroes suffer in a land which had been theirs for thousands of years: Heavy rents and taxes. All but 8 per cent of the land has been taken away from them. To get fed the blacks, compelled to work the white man's land under a system more ruthless than crop-sharing in the South. To be able to pay taxes, which are proportionately higher than those of the whites, they are forced to go to work in the mines and elsewhere under contracts which are little short of actual slavery. This has broken up their tribal system to a great extent and forced them into the cities, with all the wretched conditions of segregation, not to speak of those of city life. They are forbidden to buy land outside the reserves; cannot acquire Crown lands or make use of the Land Bank. There is also the iniquitous pass system, something as in the days of slavery in America. A native, in common with one place to an other, must have to visit a relative. There are eight kinds of these passes and sometimes one individual is forced to have several kinds. To get these he must wait sometimes for days at the local magistracy, and pay heavily for them. Any white man SENATOR CAPPER of Kansas has introduced in the Senate a bill providing for national regulation of marriage and divorce. On broad grounds the mere statement of the need for a law carries conviction of its necessity. The breaking down of the family fabric and the undermining of the moral fiber threaten early social decay. The greatest issue before mankind today is not the question of race adjustment nor the production and distribution of wealth, matters of the economy are, the adjustment between women on the basis of modern economic, industrial, intellectual and social demands. The whole scientific, political, religious and social world has been reconstructed in modern times and has made no progress in marital relations since the days of Isaac and Regea. A regime which may have been perfectly adjusted to an agricultural life of early times breaks down miserably in face of an urbanized mechanical civilization. That miserable effect is inflicted by the fact that one-sixth of the ultimate in divorce, which indicates at least twice as many more cases of tolerated infidelity. Perhaps the greatest minds in the world today are giving attention to this issue as to no other. From the standpoint of forty-eight difference States, each grappling with the problem in its own jurisdiction. Effective marriage regulations in this country Smuts and the Negro Bu J. A. ROGERS may stop him and inquire for his pass. He is forced to ride Jim-Crow; is not permitted on the street car in many areas, and to go short distances must often take the train at higher cost. Outside the reservation he must be indoors at the ringing of the curfew bell at 9 p. m. in stores and public places he must — J. A. Rogers — wait until all the whites are served. This is true of most of South Africa, except around Capt Town. Negro women are exploited and made concubines by white men, thus ruling their chances of marriage. In native South Africa women is to a large extent a form of property, and a father expects so many head of cattle for his marriageable daughters. After the revolt of 1808, in which thousands of natives and 60 whites were killed, the British Parliament sent out a commission. According to its report, the war was interference with native women by white men. The half-blood children are thrown on the care of the tribe. Rape of Negro women by white men is lightly punished, while that of white women by the Negro male means death. Sometimes the latter is really voluntary rape, as in the United States, for in South Africa there is a type of white woman who also seeks Negro men. In the big cities some of these Negroes.

BROWN ticular case. The Negro is undoubtedly the greatest victim of inadequate marriage and divorce laws and stands most in need of national unification. And yet he must look with fear and trembling upon any and every attempt to fasten such books. The reason is painfully simple. In the present temper of the American mind, any such cleisla- away from their own women, are thrown among white prostitutes. Relations with these women mean, as in Johannesburg, eight years' imprisonment and the lash, while white men run around freely with Negro men, and we mean means to compel them. It may be more here that on the reservations the Negro male much prefers his own women. The report of a Commission on Assaults on Women says: "The testimony is almost universal that, in native territories and reserves with a large black and a scattered white population, crimes of sexual violence by natives on white women are so infrequent that they may be said to be practically unknown." (See Buell's "Native Problem in Africa," Vol.1, page 54). This also is the testimony of nearly everyone else. These are by no means all the injustices under which the natives suffer, as one may see by reading the stenographic testimony of the whites and many of the friendly whites in the many parliamentary reports. General Smuts is spoken of as being a liberal. Now, a liberal is usually one who is about 60 per cent with the oppressor, and the average of General Smuts is worse than that. However, he is not so bad as General Hertzg, who is 100 percent. Smuts did his best to defeat the Black Codes, as was color bill and, in consequence, was thrown out of office. This bill, now in force in most parts of the Dominion, forbids a native to hold other than a mental position, like the Black Codes of the South after the Civil War. Smuts stands for segregation, residential and trading, and introduced in 1924 the milder Class II Bill. In opposing the Color Bar Bill he said, as quoted by Buel: I think that we are building the future of South Africa on quick-sands if we go in for this policy, for a policy of repression. . . I am very much afraid that this bill is going to make impossible any policy of appeasement and settlement between white and black in this country. I am afraid that this beginning is the most sinister and the most evil that is possible for a policy of peace and co-operation between white and black in this country in the future. Make no mistake about it, we are putting ourselves by this bill dead against the public opinion of the world. . . The white man, if this bill riage Bar tion will in all human probability involve a nationalizing anti-miscegenation provision. The same Senator Capper, who is our good friend and who intends us no harm, introduced a proposed eugenic law several years ago which had hidden between the lines the forbidance of marriage between white and colored persons. When this hidden provision was called to his attention, he explained that he had introduced the bill by request and was not aware that it contained the item complained of. Senator Blease of South Carolina keeps such a measure constantly on the calendar of the Senate. If any measure prohibiting racial intermarriage ever comes to a vote in either house of Congress, it would probably pass by an overwhelming number of States as ready forbid racial intermarriage Senators and representatives from these States would in all likelihood vote in harmony with the regulations of their own States. Sentiment on this question is well-nigh unanimous in the other States which have not enacted the sentiment into law. On one occasion the House of Representatives passed such a measure without debate, and by an almost unanimous vote. We were able to defeat it in the Senate, not by direct attack, but by the gumshoe method. We were advised by our friends on the inside that, if the issue ever came to a vote, no power on earth could stop its passage.

Jan. 15, 1930 SPECIAL ARTICLES becomes law, is largely admitting defeat; he will admit that he cannot stand on his own legs; that he cannot compete with the black man and must resort to principles and laws which violate fair play and justice in order to keep himself going. . . . "I want the members to look forward to the future when the African continent will be a more civilized continent than it is today. All our neighbors are following that policy. Go to Rhodesia, go to the Congo, to every state in the continent, not a single one will pass a law. We must insisting ourselves adrift from everyone else. In the Belgian Congo all Bromovates are now being driven by natives. . ." This speech voices rather effectively the fear of the white population. This Color Bar Bill is an attempt to place the lowest white person on a higher plane than the highest native, and it can't be done. Many of the employers are opposed to it; they would rather have a capable native than a worthless white man. but the white workers, who are the ones really at the bottom. of the bill, will not stand for it. The result is that there is a fruitful field for Communist activities among the natives. Smuts himself had considerable labor troubles and his administration shot down 750 white men in labor riots, all arising out of the exploitation of the blacks. The native may be as patient as an ass, according to Smuts, but it was not without great difficulty that the white man got on his back. Now, thanks to the power of machine-guns, the enemy firmly seated. But by and by the patient ass, who is also a knowing one, will reassert himself. What better proof of this than the fear of the whites? Not long ago I was talking with a high official of the British Colonial Office who is stationed in Africa. I met him in a studio in Paris and, in speaking to me of the people of the diaspora, I said: "Oh, we white men know only to well that we are not in Africa to stay." In South Africa, as elsewhere, there are many fair-minded white persons, and there is little doubt that in time they and the natives will get together and run the countryside.

Why should the Negro be so deeply concerned in the national marriage bar? There is neither eagerness nor expectation of intermarriage or amalgamation. Existing State laws and a drastic public opinion will serve to prevent any considerable number of cases. Social sensibilities are intensifying on both sides of the line. Illegitimacy; either within the race or across the race line, is a rapidly diminishing quantity. There always will be occasional individuals whose personal mutual attractions will deny public opinion and even the law; but these will represent rare instances without any social importance. But the Negro in protest with all of the power within the state castse system of which he is the victim by national law. All castes in the world are based upon occupational levels and the marriage bar. The weaker sex of the weaker race is always made the victim of the juxtaposition of two races. This marriage bar would place colored women in a hopelessly helpless position. The Negro resents the reputation of the white person marry into the white race. Every time a Negro marries a white person, a white person marries a Negro, with open mind and prompting heart. A marriage bar setting up a caste system between American citizens makes democratic institutions ridiculous. The Negro is waged in behalf of racial self-respect and of democracy. Correspondent Questions Speaker's Meaning of "Negro Civilization" In Africa. To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Dear Sir: It has been reported in the New York World that General Smuts, former Prime Minister, of South Africa, has said that the white races should leave the Negroes alone to enjoy their own civilization, which is best suited to them. That to Europeanize them would be harmful. What does he mean by that? To give Negroes in South Africa European civilization is to educate them technically and otherwise towards the development of industry, the trades and various commercial enterprises.

In this latter group the slightest amount of external irritation, or the most trivial disturbance of digestion, may produce a severe eruption. Eczema is common in fat, healthy looking infants, both in those who are nursing and in artificially fed babies. It rarely occurs in poorly nourished children.

It is now nearly 12,000,000, having almost doubled in the last forty million dollars. The gasoline tax in New York State, in the first six months of its levy, paid into the treasury more than fifteen million dollars. This was paid on about 600 million gallons of gasoline, Earth is 2,492 miles. If joined in single lines, the manufactured gas mains serving New York State would almost encircle the earth, and the electric transmission lines.

There are four state prisons in New York-Auburn, at Auburn; Sing St, at Ossining; Clinton, at Danaemor, and Great Mendons, at Comstock. Together they have average prisoner population of 6,000. Of twenty-six million automobiles and trucks in the United States in 1929, New York State had more than any other, with a total of 2,292,000. Pennsylvania followed in that order.

Eczema in infants is usually scab upon the face and scalp, but may occur in any part of the body. The disease begins with the formation of small red papules which later become red and produce a more red surface exudate. This secretion dries and forms a thick gummy crust, which may be hard as to form a mask for the face. From the scratching caused by the almost intolerable itching the surface bleeds freely and the dried blood gives to the crust a brown color, which adds to the distressing appearance. Swelling of the lymphatic region of the eruption is a constant feature of eczema of the face and scalp. While most children with eczema are well nourished in the beginning, and some remain during a prolonged attack, the general health of many is undermined, and discomfort causes constant irritation and loss of sleep, which sometimes result in the bringing about of other nervous symptoms. The results in the treatment of a case of infantile eczema are often not encouraging chiefly because it requires considerable time for the condition to clear up. A judicious combination of general and local measures is necessary for the best results. Unless the disturbance of nutrition can be removed, local treatment will give only temporary relief. External causes also may be investigated. Take your belt to the doctor at the first sign this disease and have the patience to co-operate in what is usually a very trying situation. Dental Talks By ROY C. PROCTOR, d. d. d. Preventive Dentistry THE future advancement in the field of dentistry will be along the lines of prevention. The prosthetic or restorative branch has made far greater strides toward perfection than any other, and prevention seems to lag farest behind. The immediate financial gain to the prosthetict seems to account for it. A question is asked: Just what should prevention begin? The tooth but first seen as early as the eighth incisor emerges. Life from investigators claim to have observed its presence as early as the sixth week. Prevention should, therefore, begin with the mother—even before pregnancy. She should see that her entire system is well up to par, possessing full quantities of toothstructural substances, as time calls. To fortify her system, her diet should frequently contain fresh fruits and vegetables least, should be raw, such as lettuce or cold slaw. Dairy products, as eggs, milk, cheese, etc., should by no means be omitted. With the advance of civilization, the culinary art seems to have developed to such an extent that food is almost predigested before it is eaten. A typical diet of today contains soft, musky foods that do not give the teeth the use and exercise that is so necessary for the health and development. Such a condition suggests the need for ammonolytic KY, that are totally unnecessary simply because nature does not continue the gift of unused organs. The correction is self-evident. The diet should contain foods that necessitate strong, forceful and vigorous mastication.
