BOSTON. March 10.—Dr. Daniel Davenport, white, self-styled "adventurer and explorer," who has for the past three weeks exhibited movies at the Tremont Theatre of his experiences with ferocious beasts and blood-thirsty "cannibals," was recalled Friday to be the perpetrator of a great hoax when one of the "cannibals" described himself as being Firpo Jacko of Hibern in his suit against Davenport for wages due him.
Jacko, who as one of the "cannibals" accompanying the movie known as "Maluba," stated that Dr. Davenport had never been to Africa and that the "jungle" scenes were made
in the "wilds" of "The Bronx. The pictures of wild animals, Jacko said, were made of the animals of a small circus which Dr. Davenport purchased.

Dr. Curtis had been the family physician until about three years ago. Early Thursday, Bambinski had returned home after exercising his dog, to find Dr. Curtis in the house. The doctor explained that Mrs. Bambinski had called him to perform an illegal operation and offered the husband some 'hiskey'. After several drinks Curtis sent the husband out with a prescription to get his wife some medicine. Suspicious, Bambinski circled the house, climbed up to the bedroom window and peered in. He saw the doctor and his wife in bed. Bambinski crept back into the house, got his rifle from a closet, loaded it and stepped into the bedroom. He killed the doctor with one shot in the head. Then he pumped three into his wife. She pleaded with him to stop and the children scrambled, but to no avail. Dr. Curtis was forty-seven years old. Mrs. Bambinski was twenty-six, and her husband twenty-four.

Accused of Trying To Rob Poor Boxes
Accused of attempting to force his way into the Church of the Crucifixion, 41 West 140th street, for the purpose of riffing the poor boxes, William Pennyfeather, 19, 2109 Madison avenue, was held without ball for a further hearing when arraigned last Wednesday in Heights Court. Magistrate McQuade heard the charge against the youth who, it is charged, tried to lower himself down a coal chute which leads to the basement of the church.

Jacko's charges were corroborated by Mrs. J. Z. Montgomery, the owner of the boarding house in South End where the "cannibals" have lived during their stay here. She described them as being nice young men who spoke excellent English and in no way exhibited any savage traits. Dr. Davenport denied the charges of Jacko saying that he had been engaged only upon the illness of a genuine cannibal; the movie, he declared, was authentic, and was photographed by him in Africa. Jacko was represented by Michael Heay, Boston attorney, who obtained an attachment on box office receipts for $700 back wages.

Hoover's Haitian Commission of Inquiry
PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI—Members of the Commission of Inquiry photographed standing before the American Legation at Port-au-Prince. The members are: W. Cameron Borthes, Henry P. Fletcher, former Ambassador to Italy; Elie Vezina, James Kearny and William Allen White.

Hoover Investigators Warn President He Will Not Have Backing of U. S. Marines in Case of Rebellion
The Haitian crisis, which, Monday in dispatches published here, appeared to have been solved with President Borno's acceptance of the plan presented by the Hoover Investigation Commission for an early return to representative government, was revived in a dangerous form yesterday.
President Borno, after pledging to co-operate in immediate steps looking toward popular legislative elections in the next few months, has reversed himself.
As a result, the opposition factions, which only a few days ago were threatening to resist the Borno Government even at the cost of facing American machine guns, feel that they have been betrayed, and their leaders, in co-operation with American officials, are making strenuous efforts to reassure them and allay excitement, which still holds the possibility of serious results in the capital.

Theft of Cable Darkens Harlem; Three Arrested
Several blocks in Harlem were plunged into darkness Saturday night when a cable was ripped away in the loft building at 9 East 137th street.
Three suspects were arrested by Detective Quinn of the East 126th street station and when arraigned Sunday on charges of burglary before Magistrate McKinlay in Harlem Court were held in $2,500 ball for a further hearing. They gave their names as Lawrence Largone, 18, 161 West 140th street; Emanuel Wright, 17, and 'Joseph Anderson, 18, both living at 64 East 134th street.
According to the police the trio broke into the loft building and proceeded to rip out plumbing and electrical fixtures. In so doing they broke the wires leading to a cable, which put out all of the lights within a radius of several blocks. It required several hours before the cause of the trouble was located and the wires repaired.
Text of Haiti Commission's Statement
The text of the Haiti Commission's statement follows:
"The President's commission has suggested that the various elements composing the opposition to the present Haitian government should organize a group of delegates satisfactory to them, central and non-political candidate, satisfactory also to President Boroan, who should then receive their votes and also be elected regularly.
"The President thus chosen will call a popular election at the earliest possible date and present his resignation to the new legislature, so that it will elect the President for the regular term.
"This plan has the approval of President Hoover, and has been enacted. In principle both Haitian leaders have to be worked out. The commission has no candidate to present."

Officials are hopeful that a popular election can be completed and a regular President installed within three months after expiration of storms' term. It is expected that the new treaty between Haiti and the United States will be signed on the basis of the commission's report. The report thus far relates only to the immediate-potent crisis. Findings regarding the method of ending the American occupation have not yet been formulated.

Hoover's Quiz Body Suggests Abolition of High U. S. Commissioner and Selection of Provisional President
With the plan already approved, calling for the abolition of the American High Commission in Haiti, and with assurances that President Borno's Council of State will not elect the next president when Borno's term expires on May 15, two of the principal demands of the Haitians have been met by the Hoover Commission, headed by W. Cameron Forbes.

The Forbes commission mounted eighty miles across the mountains to this city on the central plain of Haiti, one-time center of the so-called Caco Revival, and the region is a peaceful, orderly agricultural region raising cotton, corn and livestock.
At every town along the way the people demonstrated in orderly manner in honor of the commission. The demonstrators carried flags and pencils pleading for liberty, justice and the life of the American occupation. They also offered attention to local grievances, particularly taxes on alcohol and tobacco.
The commissioners greeted the people in a most cordial fashion. Mr. Forbes informally in brief addresses at various towns along the way expressed the commission's sympathetic desire to learn the people's difficulties. He conveyed President Mowler's good wishes. The audience in every case cheered hastily, some crying out "Vive Liberte!"

Three Eighth Illinois Officers Resign Regt. Posts
CHICAGO, March 10 (ANP). Three officers of the Eighth Infantry Regiment, Illinois National Guard, resigned last week, giving as their reasons the pressure of their private affairs. The resignations were submitted to Col. Spencer C. Dickerson, who succeeded Otis E. Duncan as commanding officer of the regiment.
The men who resigned are: Major Lilburn Jackson, Capt. William Middleton and John McDonald. All three men are members of the city police force.
Major Jackson was a candidate to succeed Col. Duncan, who was deposed and is now serving a sentence for misuse of Government funds.
Although these men in their written letters of resignation gave as their reason the lack of time due to their other affairs, it is well known that they have expressed complaints which were not made part of the letters.

White Brooklyn Policeman Faces Indictment for Assault After Long Legal Fight for Justice by N.A.A.C.P.
Patrolman Walter Lowe, white, of the Grand avenue station, was held in $1,000 bail for the Kings Grand Jury when given a final hearing Monday in the First Brooklyn Magistrates' Court before Magistrate Jacob Eilperin, on a charge of feloniously shooting Ralph Baker, 24-year-old Lincoln University student. Lowe was arrested after a long fight headed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The order for the policeman's apprehension came from Chief Magistrate William McAdoo. William T. Andrews appeared as counsel for Baker through the N. A. A.C.P.

Baker, who is the son of a Montclair, N. J., minister, was shot in the back September 9 when he and a schoolmate, William Fontaine, also of Montclair, appeared in the Fulton avenue elevated station. The youth declared that Love came plunging from the platform, waving a revolver and minging like a maniac. The two ran, according to the youths and their witnesses, and Baker was shot without provocation.
The lad lay in St. John's Hospital for several weeks. He preferred charges against Lowe, who had been pronounced fit for duty by Dr. Louis T. Wright, only Negro police surgeon.
Lowe said he and a companion, Miss Louise Crocker, white, were insulted by Baker and Fontaine on a train. The two tried to force themselves into a single seat beside them, the patrolman contended.
Baker asserted that he had not been an a train and was on his way
Mr. Green, who maintains offices at 168 West 136th street, is accused by John Sullivan, white, assistant district attorney in charge of the city investigation, of overcharging a chiropractor for providing ball. The hearing Monday will also determine whether Mr. Green will be charged with illegally compromising a case by returning the overcharge. Green, a St. James Presbyterian Church pillar, is also scheduled to appear for a hearing today on a similar charge. Accompanied by W. R. Van Wagner, white, special investigator for District Attorney Crain, Dr. J. Ackman Holland, a chiropractor, 357 Seventh avenue, secured a summons in Heights Court last Wednesday for Green, who he charged had overcharged him. Holland complained that Green had furnished ball for $500 for him following his arrest for practising medicine without a license and had charged

Mr. Holland was charged with illegally practicing medicine in March, 1928, and Green provided a $500 bond. He charged $50 for the service, according to the complaint. The bondman also charged $50 for providing a similar security. Mr. Holland was freed in both cases.

Husband Agree.
While her husband was held in prison, Mrs. Hatchette went to see Green. He agreed to furnish ball for her husband, she said. A few days after the arrest of Hatchette ball in his case was set at $2,000. Green, it is alleged, told Mrs. Hatchette she would have to pay him $200 for the bond he was to furnish for the release of her husband. She pleaded that she could not raise so much money and when Green learned that she was Ashmond, Va., which he told her was his home town, he agreed to reduce the fee to $150, it is charged.
Mrs. Hatchette told Van Warmer
The bondman retired to a private room with the chiropractor. When they came out Mr. Holland presented the following purported record of the transaction for signing:
Paid to J. Ackman Holland $83.96 by Magnolia Green, being principal and interest, and paid as refund on bail bond charges made by Junius M. Green Jan. 2, 1926, and March 9, 1928.
Holland, Smith and Fletcher signed the original. The district attorney's investigations subpoenaed the signatories Monday and demanded the signature on Monday. They were then asked to appear in court yesterday when the summons was asked.

Green is the third bondman arraigned in the Heights Court within the last few days. John J. McGraw, 236 West 127th street, and Isaac W. Edelman, white, both of whom are employed as agents for the Greater Mills Surety Company, were also summoned by McQuade and accused of overcharging.
The trio were served with summonses by Van Wagner after he investigated the complaints made against the accused bondmen.
$80 Overcharge Alleged.
Mr. Green was summoned on complaint of Mrs. Addie Hatchette, 2340 Seventh avenue, who alleges that she paid $150 to have her husband released on bail of $2,000. The bail, she asserts, was furnished by Green. The legal fee of three per cent she should have been charged is $60. Mrs. Hatchette said, and therefore she al-ready green overcharged her $90 on the bond.
The $150 was paid by check, Mrs. Hatchette said. This check is now in the possession of Van Wagner and will be used as evidence against Mr. Green.
According to the story told to the special investigator by Mrs. Hatchette, her husband was arrested in New Rochelle. He was charged with felonious assault, it being alleged he assaulted a man with a blunt instrument. When arraigned in White Plains Court, Hatchette was held

While her husband was held in prison, Mrs. Hatchette went to see Green. Mr. agreed to furnish ball for her husband she showed after the arrest of Hatchette ball in his case was set at $200.

Learns of Overcharge
On February 24, when she learned that she had been overcharged, according to Mrs. Hatchette, she went to see Green, who refused to refund the $90 she alleges she was overcharged to her. Mrs. Hatchette then complained to District Attorney Crain and after an investigation by Wagner a summons was served upon Green for his appearance in court. Green denied the charge when arraigned before Magistrate McQuade and at his request the case was adjourned. Mr. Green was paroled. The magistrate also adjourned the hearings in the cases of McGraw and Edelman until today.

Harlem Wife Faces Grand Jury After Prayer Fails to Stay Hand of Death
Homicide Court Holds Woman for Action When Husband Dies-Playing Phonograph at Night Caused Tragedy
A morseful woman who implored Divine Providence to stay the hand of death which hovered over her mate for a month today sits in a city prison awaiting indictment by the Grand Jury on a charge of killing her spouse.
She is Mrs. Mamie Lewis, 42, 3 West. 135th street, who was held without ball for Grand Jury action on a murder charge when arraigned last Wednesday in Homicide Court before Magistrate A. W. Birdes. The tragedy occurred in the Lewis home Feb. 4.
Tragedy shadowed the threshold when James Lewis returned home on the fatal night. Lewis was intoxicated and insisted upon expressing his jovial mood by playing the phonograph.
The woman, who was sleeping, awoke and demanded quiet. When it was not forthcoming she remonstrated the struck by the drink-calloused woman. She went to the kitchen, obtained a bread knife, returned and plunged the blade into his abdomen, the charge recounts.
Lewis's recovery was predicted at Harlem Hospital, but blood poisoning set in and death was the victim on March 2. Before the end he wrote a note stating, "I do not want to testig- against my wife. It was all my fault."
Mrs. Lewis was arrested Feb. 5 by Patrolman Jenkins of the West 135th street station and arraigned in Heights Court on a charge of felonious assault. Held in a cell, she prayed constantly for her husband's life.
When hailed to Heights Court three days after his death and informed of her plight, Mrs. Lewis was stricken with grief. She broke down and wept. Magistrate McQuade had no choice but holding her for the Hom-icide Court.

Charged with abandoning their three children and leaving them in destitute circumstances, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Davis, who gave 246 West 150th street (the Dunbun Apartments), as their address, were arraigned Thursday in Heights Court and held in bail for a further hearing by Magistrate McQuade.

Hit-Run Autoist Kills Policeman
Policeman Joseph J. Scott, white, 28, 3180 Parsifal place, the Bronx, was knocked down and instantly killed by a hit-and-run driver of a heavy coupe early yesterday morning when he attempted to stop the machine, which was being driven in a reckless manner.
The driver of the car, accompanied by two companions, escaped after a two-mile chase, in which six shots were fired.
Gordon, who was attached to the West 135th street station, was on duty at 135th street and St. Nicholas avenue shortly after 4 a.m., when the couple approached, according to witnesses; going south at a speed of fifty-five or sixty miles an hour.
The officer stepped from the curb of St. Nicholas avenue and with uplifted hand signaled for the car to stop. Witnesses said that the driver swerved the car and deliberately hit the car dragger himself feet along the avenue. The car mounted the curb, disentangling itself from the policeman's inert body and sped away.
Policeman John Sullivan, white, also of the West 135th street station and a friend of Scott's, was on duty further down the avenue when he heared the screeching down the street. He also stumbled from the street and barely escaped being hit by the car. He fired one shot and as he did go the driver switched off his lights so that his license plates would be unseen. Sullivan pursued the car in a taxi, firing six shots in all. The car discharged and the driver was menwhile. Scott was rushed to Harlem Hospital by Sergeant Meehan of the West 135th street station, in a car driven by William Stafford, of 306 West 129th street, where the policeman was pronounced dead on arrival. Scott had been a policeman for two years and had a good record. He is survived by, a wife and a three-car-old child.

President Borno Now Claims Council Will Elect Successor
(Continued from Page One)
and start back to the capital today. The commission was kept informed of developments throughout the day by telephone from Port-au-Prince. It sent to President Borno, through Emmanuel General Russell, an unprovoked demand to repair the damage he had done, together with a thinly veiled threat that if his attitude provoked opposition and violence he need not look to the murders for protection, but that their functions would be limited to protecting American lives and property. Borno has refused to "repair the damage," and this has been taken to mean that blood is almost surely to be shed.
The text of the messages, which were sent out by President Borno's Minister of Interior, declared that the report that a provisional government would be formed, and that the new president would not be selected by the Council of State, were false. It also asserted that legislative elections would not be held until January, 1932.
The messages were sent to prefects all over the country, who in turn sent them to local justices.
Borah Supports Commission
WASHINGTON, March 10—Chairman Borah of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said today he believed the Hoover Haitian commission was taking the right steps in proposing replacement of the American Military High Commissioner in Haïd with a civil representative under a new representative government.
"The commission is making progress along the right lines," the Idaho Senator said, in commenting on press dispatches from Haïd.
"The great object is to get out of Haiti, and as speedily as we can with honor to the United States and justice to Haïd."
Junior High Youth Held for Burglary
The discovery of a junior high school pupil's report card in an apartment which had been burglared led to the arrest of the youth and his arraignment last Wednesday in Heights Court, where he was held in $3,000 ball.
The accused lad is Vincent Brown, 16, 238 West 144th street, who is a pupil at Frederick Douglass Junior High School, on West 140th street. Vincent denied committing the burglary, but was unable to explain satisfactorily how the card came to be in the apartment.
The youth was arrested by Detective Robinson of the West 135th street station after his card had been found in the apartment of Leroy Holliday, 129 West 144th street.
Entrance to the Holliday apartment was gained by cutting through the wall from the adjoining apartment, which was unoccupied, and a radio as well as clothing valued in all at $550 was stolen.
The police were notified and Detective Robinson hurried to the Holiday apartment to investigate.
Commission Favors Provisional President May 15
(Continued from Page One)
Marines should remain in Haiti, but with Russell and Borno out of office, and with an official envoy of the United States sent there to take his place, the power and alleged brutality of the marines will, no doubt, be curbed.
Women Preferred Death
According to nearly all the Oppositionists who appeared before the Hoover Commission, the shedding of blood was unavoidable if the demands were not met. Even the women of Haiti express a willingness to die if their country were not freed.
When Madame Brun Ricot, representing the patriotic association of Haitian women, was asked whether a President elected by the Council would be acceptable to her, Madame Ricot, dressed entirely in black, including her headress, electrified the commissioners by her reply.
"Turn your machine guns on the women" she said sharply, her eyes flashing. "In the hearts of the women are encrusted the feelings of husbands and sons. We know they have decided to die. All Haitian women share this sentiment. You cannot prevent us following our husbands and sons. The women also would be shot, but we would not abandon our men."
Witnesses Outspoken.
Emanuel Rampy, Grand Master of the Masonic Order of Haiti, an organization of 200,000 members; Ezaire Vilaire, representing the region of Grande Anse; Emanuel Caurin, a recently ousted member of the Council; Antoine Pierre Paul, president of the National Labor Party, and Atty George Leger, were among those to testify before the Commission last week. All were outspoken.
Conferences held with supporters of the present regime were secret, but Borno is reported to have agreed to the suggestions of the Commission.
The Commission's plan also calls for the negotiation of a new treaty with Haiti.
Ernest Chauvet, the editor. In a statement said he considered the commission's plan a great victory, though it did not fulfill the opposition's demands.
The Forbes commission plan also calls for electing a provisional president to serve until a regular incumbent can be elected as chief executive of Haiti. Potential possibilities for provisional president were said to include:
Edouard Esteve, president of the Haitian Chamber of Commerce and a prominent business man.
Edmond de Lespinasse, the oldest lawyer in Haiti, now in his fifty-second year of practice.
Former President Legitime, who was popular in office until overthrown by political foes.
Emmanuel Etheart, president of the Supreme Court.
Dr. Armand, prominent physician.
The foregoing are all from Port-au-Prince. Other possibilities exist in other cities.

Tenant Stay Bill Passes Assembly
Harlem Representative's Housing Legislation Gets Approval
ALBANY, March 11.—Despite the stiff fight put up by real estate interests, the six months' stay bill, which is expected to bring relief to tenants throughout New York City and especially in Harlem, passed the Assembly last night when it was brought up for a vote.
The Assembly vote was unanimous and on a short roll call. No debate was offered.
The bill was introduced by Assemblyman Lamar Perkins of the Twenty-first district. The legislation would amend the Civil Practice Act in order to allow Municipal Court justices to grant stays to tenants who have been served with the final order in dispossess actions.
If the jurist sees fit he may halt the issuance of a warrant to oust the tenant and stay any execution to collect the costs of the proceedings. The bill is intended to allow the renter to hunt similar and suitable quarters in the neighborhood at the price he originally paid. The tenant would be required to deposit his rent, plus any reasonable increase the justice might deem proper, with the court after the renter has terminated his lease or rental agreement. It is believed that the Senate will be called upon to vote on the bill next week. Mr. Perkins' bills designed to do away with the stool pig system in trapping girls for prostitution will come up for a hearing Tuesday in the Codes Committee. The assemblyman issued a statement yesterday in which he asked support of churches and civic organizations.
"The system of using unnamed and often untruthful spies to trap girls has made a blot on the character of the whole state," he said. "Especially does Harlem suffer from the type of justice which allows the male law-breaker to go free without even testifying in court."
Two Held as Robbers
Accused of luring George Williams, a janitor, 315 West 127th street, to the hallway of their home and robbing him of $37 after beating him, James Brown, 32, a longshoreman, and Thomas Holmes, 20, a cook, both of 2376 Eighth avenue, were held without bail for a further hearing when arraigned last Wednesday in Harlem Court.

Lofty Ideals of Col. Charles Young Praised by Speakers on Anniversary
President Hoover Sends Message to Meeting Where High Ranking U.S. Officer's Life Is Called Ideal for Youth
"No one has done more to elevate his race than did the late Col. Charles E. Young," declared Major Alvin Sandeford, white commanding officer of the Field Artillery Corps stationed at Governors Island, Sunday afternoon at a memorial service held at Salem M. E. Church, 120th street and Seventh avenue, commemorating the birthday of the late army officer.
"I knew Col. Young personally," Major Sandeford said. "and his motto was always 'duty, honor, and country.' He was always dignified and courteous, possessing a great strength of character.
The next speaker was Walter W. Walker, who served as secretary to the President of Liberia during the time that Col. Young was stationed thr. "No living American Negro." Mr. Walker said, "has felt the sting of racial discrimination and proscription as did Col. Young in his lifetime.
Seek Removal of Bishop A. J. Carey
Three Hundred Churchmen Petition Senior Prelate of
"He was the victim of the great army machine but he never complained," Mr. Walker continued, "yet when he returned to Africa while the soldiers he had trained were fighting in France he was a broken-hearted man. The message of his life seems to have been that no man can afford to exhibit any spleen toward his enemies."
Brief personal recollections of the famous soldier were presented by the Rev. Edward A. Clark, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church, who was associated with him when he was military director of the Wilberforce University. He spoke of the musical ability of Colonel Young and said that he served as the chapel organist during his period of retirement there before America entered the war.
Perhaps the most dramatic of these reminiscences of Dr. Clark was his account of Colonel Young's now famous ride of 700 miles from Ohio to Washington to prove to the War Department his fitness for duty overseas. His subsequent removal to Liberia, Dr. Clark said, was due to the fact that America did not want a Negro general. The tragedy of his death in Africa, he said, is just another example of what hatred and race prejudice will do.
Other speakers were Colonel William A. Taylor, white, and Captain Allan Beane, both of the 369th Infantry; Attorney Richard E. Carey, who represented the Omega fraternity, and the Rev. F. A. Cullen, pastor of Salem.
Letters were read by Cleveland G. Allen, chairman of the meeting, from President Hoover, Gen. Hansom Ely, commander of the Second Corps Area; the Rev. John Haynes Holmes, white, pastor of the Community Church; and from Congressman Hamilton Fish.
Sore Throat Blamed for Death of Mrs. Lockhart
Mrs. Ormond A. Lockhart, 22, 192 Bradhurst avenue, who died Sunday while being rushed to Roosevelt Hospital after a short illness, will be buried tomorrow following funeral services at St. Philip's P. E. Church, 216 West 134th street.
The young matron, who married Ormond A. Lockhart three years ago, was stricken with septic poisoning last Wednesday when complications set in from a throat. She is survived by her husband, her mother, Mrs. Matilda Ricks Poole, 36 St. Nicholas place, at whose home the body will lie today; and her father, William A. Curtis, of Raleigh, N. C.
The Rev. Shelton Hale Ibishop will read the funeral service, and the undertaking firm of Wainwright & Daniels will conduct the burial, for which arrangements have not been completed.

Suspended sentences were given Baskerville's wife, Mrs. Norma Baskerville, and his sister-in-law, Miss Adabelle Kellar. Patrolman Joseph Reynolds of the West 123d street station told the court that Baskerville threw a glass jar at him when he opened the apartment door, but later apologized for his action.

the value of Bishop Arcibald J. Carey to the Fourth Episcopal District of the A. M. E. Church were expressed here this week.
The Association of A. M. E. Ministers of Chicago and vicinity, representing approximately 50,000 members of the denomination in the Chicago area, at the regular meeting in Bethel A. M. E. Church last Tuesday afternoon unanimously adopted a resolution voting absolute confidence in the integrity of Bishop Carey as its Episcopal head and in his office as a public official.
Following closely in the wake of the adoption of this resolution on the part of the ministerial association was a petition signed by nearly three hundred churchmen, asking the removal of Bishop Carey as the head of this diocese. The petition was sent to Bishop S. B. Parks, senior bishop, at Oakland, Calif., and urged immediate action due to the "notoriety" given the church through the charges that Bishop Carey as a civil service commissioner had accepted bribes for jobs. These petitioners declared: "This matter has brought our church in Chicago and the nation into shameful notoriety. Chicago is in the hands of officials whose policy is wide open and particularly agreeable to people of the underworld. It has had an orgy of bribery, gambling, vice and murder scarcely equalled in the history of the city.
"Consequently the indictment of this man is not in our opinion the result of the grievance of one individual, but the result of the grievances of many individuals."

DRON al Merry Del Val was 'twice fore- led by the Associated Press. We were told today that the great Cardi- cast as the first foreign Pope,' that he came 'twice near being first alien Popa.' meaning, we must assume, a Pope of other than Italian birth.
"The facts are that among the Popes fifteen were Frenchmen, nine were Greeks., seven were Germans, five were Asiatics, three were Africans, eight were Spaniards, two were Dalmatians, while Palestine, Thrace, Holland and Portugal have each furnished an occupant of the Chair of Peter.
"One Pope—Adain IV—came from England, the same country in which Cardinal Merry Del Val was born. Even the reigning pontiff, Pope Plus XI, may be called an alien by Italian. His city of Destro near Milan was under the domination of the Austrian monarchy at the time of his birth."

ALPHA PHI ALPHA FRAT HAS "NIGHT IN EGYPT"
Renaissance
Three chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, Eta and Alpha Gamma Lambda of this city and Alpha Lambda of New Jersey, were joint hosts at "A Night in Egypt" last Tuesday night. This formal dance was given at the Renaissance Casino and there were fully 1,500 guests in attendance.
For those who arrived early there was an opportunity to view from an appreciative angle the artistic ceiling decorations and the mystic murmits that John L. Wilson, former president of Eta Chapter and a graduate of the Columbia University Architectural School, was responsible for selecting. The sacred Scarab was used as an appropriate background at the front of the stage; below this stood the Sphinx; from the fraternity's insignia were flashed multi-colored electric lights.
Judging from comments, these artis-
the touches, however, were of less interest to many guests who were compelled to stand in the checking line as long as thirty or forty minutes. They arrived between 11:15 and 12:15, and the attempt of the fraternity officials to check the individual names of the guests and to assign them to their boxes was largely responsible for the general congestion at the door.
The men of the fraternity paidribute to their organization by singing

James E. Sadler Makes Confession Embezzles More Than $3,= 000 for "Home Business"
The Golden Rod Building and Loan Association, 8 Mission street, Montchar, will not lose through the manipulations of the former secretary, James E. Sadler of 31 Montague place, that town, who was arrested last Monday by prosecutor's detectives. Sadler was bonded for $5,000. This is because Sadler is alleged to have embezzled $3,070.88 from the association by Charles Abrams of the building and loan bureau of the State Department of Banking and Insurance, who made the complaint.
Sadler was held in $3,000 ball when arraigned before Justice of the Peace J. H. E. Schotland at the Hall of Records. He is alleged to have held out oppose and used them for his "home business."
A signed confession which Sadler planned to send to a lawyer was found in his pocket, Lieutenant Hargan of the prosecutor's office said, after questioning him. Sadler was arrested by Prosecutor's Detectives Crooke and Mayer.
This letter was written a week ago, Hargan said, and Sadler wrote it in the hope the lawyer would "find some way to work out of the load." The manipulations had been going on for four of the five years Sadler has been secretary of the association, Hargan said he confessed.
In another letter which is in possession of the officials of the building and loan association, Hargan said, Sadler confessed, but added "when this letter reaches you I will be in the Great Beyond." Sadler is employed at the Montelair Bureau of Water Supply.

TO make a go of marriage," or anything, for that matter, requires serious thought, a degree of self-effacement and the ability to see good in every situation.
Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne, Theatre Guild stars, told their story of marriage in the March 9 issue of The New York World and, while it does not set forth any vastly different picture, some of its high spots are valuable. For instance, this man and his wife keep separate bank accounts and they share their living expenses with perfect equality. "So many marriage quarrels," they say, "have a financial basis, and there is nothing quite so ugly, so undermining to sentiment or even politeness as bickerings about money."
"Check and double check" (with apologies to Andy).
The Lunts (nobody ever calls them), believe that "loneliness is a terrible thing. It is so easy for the lonely person to reach out for some contact. . . . And the realization that another person can make life just as pleasant is unstabilizing for marriage." These are the words they use when they tell their reason for always performing in the same show when outside of New York.
Miss Fontanne believes that it is decidedly dangerous to pry into a relationship, her philosophy being let bygones be bygones. And never be jealous!
How many of us want to drink the Lunt-Fontanne tonic? Our unions might grow more permanent if we would give it a trial.—T. E. B.

Dear Girl Scout:
The hike scheduled for last Saturday was put off because of the rainy weather—better luck next time. We'll try again on April 12.
It's not too early to think about the camping season. Camp folders will be out next month, so be prepared to apply early if you really want to go. And why not learn to swim before the season starts? The Y. W. C. A. welcomes Girl Scouts every Monday between 4 and 6 o'clock.
The Patrol Leaders' Association had a well-attended meeting on Friday evening. Thirty-two Scouts were present, but some of our troops were not represented. Where were the girls from Troops 124, 127 and 1507?
Troops report their activities as follows:
No. 51 at Columbus Hill meet on Saturdays at 2 p. m., instead of on Fridays at 4.
No. 91 (senior patrols) will have a skating party at its next meeting.
No. 108 is planning a play for the older girls.
No. 99 at St. Jude's held an Investiture Ceremony, followed by a party, for the new Scouts on last Monday.
No. 150 is planning an entertainment for March 28 at the Urban League. All troops are invited.

FOR the dinner table, white linen damask is the classic covering. Linen damask is always dignified, always correct and always in good taste and in good form. Linen and lace are often combined in the covering for the dinner table and sometimes elaborate all-lace table cloths are used. When a lace cloth is used, it is placed on a bare table.
What of the vogue for colored damask? One wonders whether or not it is a passing fad or a definite field offered to the woman of the home for the opportunity for expression of her color consciousness. The conservative woman, of course, still uses white damask for her formal dinners.
Before you buy your table cloths, carefully measure your table, and allow a twelve-to-fifteen-inch hangout for your dinner cloths, and an eight-to-twelve-inch hangover for your lupine cloths.
Table cloths should be French hemmed, with the hem three-eighths of an inch wide, and napkins (also French hemmed) have hems of from one inch to one-quarter of an inch wide. A white linen damask cloth is as appropriate to the formal or informal luncheon as to the formal or informal dinner. Colored damask and gay colored sets of less formal materials are often used. Linen runners, tablecloths, and coats to match, are popular. An especially beautiful table is sometimes left bare except for the lace rounds under the centerpiece, plates, and glasses. Damask napkins are used with these. Luncheon sets are appropriate for an informal dinner on the porch or an informal Sunday night supper or other informal suppers.

It is not this time the more the merrier, but the more the cheaper! It costs a quarter to come in and splash in the pool at the West 137th street "Y." A quarter is not so much but neither does it grow on a tree and the quarters have a way of adding up. Here is the way to get around this problem. Bring some friends along, share the joy of splashing, have more sociability and spend less money. This is the way it goes: If you come in twos, you pay twenty cents; if you come in threes, you pay fifteen cents; if you come in fives, you a dime, and in tens, only a nickel!

Confidences
Questions and Answers
By EGYPSY ANN
REALLY, folks, procrastination does cause a heap of worry and trouble. Women are unusual victims of this old monster. We think of what we ought to do and, instead of going ahead and doing it, we put it off until tomorrow and, in the meantime, something else pops up to be done and the things just pile, one on top of the other. Then we start to worry about which to do first, instead of jumping right in, doing something and getting it over with. If you have a system for your work, you'll find that you can get through and have a little time for yourself, and life won't seem such a jumble.
Try to get the daily housework done within a limited time. Set aside one particular job for every day in the week and do it that day. For example, clean the ice-box on Monday; the gas stove, Tuesday; the woodwork. Wednesday, and so on. Then you won't become fagged out from doing too much at a time. Or, what's more probable, you won't be worried about thinking of what you should do.
Dear Just Fifteen:
Yes, I do think you are too young to be going out with a man of twenty-one. You shouldn't be thinking of steady company at all. Boys of your own age ought to interest you more than men, if you go out with any.

For the tea table, you may use an embroidered or hemstitched tea cloth, or a simple or elaborate lace cover, or a combination of linen and lace. For fine teas, napkins should match. For formal dinners, an unusually large napkin is smart. Nowadays, though, napkins have shrunk, and one rarely encounters dinner napkins larger than twenty-eight inches usually not larger than four inches. There is such beauty in a generous expanse of handsome napkins that for formal entertaining they are most impressive. Luncheon napkins are from thirteen, eighteen, eighteen inches square. White hemstitched luncheon napkins are often used with a white linen damask cloth. Breakfast napkins, often colored or with a colored border to match the cloth, are usually a bit smaller than napkins but may be the same size.
Appropriate to the appointments of the tea table are the small tea napkins, sometimes of fine handkerchief linens with scalloped edges, sometimes of demersal with scalloped borders, and sometimes of heavy linens with drawnwork borders.
Monogramming.
Perfect harmony should be between a piece of linen and the monogram placed on it. The pattern or design of the cloth and napkins and the monogram should be size of the monograms embroidered on them should make a perfect unity.
For table cloths, the size of the monogram should be from two and one-half to five inches; for dinner napkins, from one to two inches. For luncheon and breakfast napkins and dolles, from three-quarters of an inch in each half.

carries on the spirit of the tradition that the bride's linens were a kind of proud symbol of the union of her family with her husband's family. Formerly, when a girl was taught to embroider at an early age, she began marking her linens, and since at that age she knew who her husband was to be each piece was marked with the initials of her maiden name for her chest.

The Clio Welfare and Community Centre, Inc., 205 West 128th street, had its usual afternoon meeting on Friday. Raymond Harris, who is only five years old, told the most interesting stories to the group.
Because of lack of space to accommodate the increasing group of children, the centre has to divide the Friday afternoon class into three groups for Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The ages of the children range from 3 to 12. The kindergarten group will meet on Mondays from 3 to 5; the intermediates on Wednesday from 3:30 to 5; the oldest group, on Friday afternoon at the usual hour. The older girls of the Friday afternoon class will begin to make animals, which can be used for gifts or toys for their younger brothers and sisters. The boys will continue with their carpentry.
The customary prize given monthly to the best behaved child was won in February by David Skinner, who is 11 years old.
Mrs. Lucille Klass, a recent teacher in the Public School system, has charge of the Monday and Wednesday afternoon classes. Miss Lenon Holder has charge of the Friday afternoon classes.
To Have Benefit
The John Brown Memorial Association, Inc., is sponsoring a benefit tomorrow night at Rockland Palace, 155th street and Eighth avenue.

Easter Hints
DURING a short conversation with a fashionable New York dressmaker, I learned a few points concerning the coming spring styles. There may be a little doubt in your mind as to just what will predominate or just what will be a fad and what will be more or less permanent.
Prints, she informed me, will be very popular and very pretty. Especially small prints, as they are conservative, yet cheerful. The stout or plump woman should avoid large prints, as there is no question as to their conspicuousness, even on a small person. A small, neat design is by far the most chic and practi.
Speaking of practical, a print dress is certainly that. It can be used for street wear, church wear, afternoon wear, school wear and informal evening wear. As most of us have to think of the practical side of the question, this information should be helpful.
Another point which we will touch upon here is the question of the color of stockings. The darker shades will predominate, gun metal and the deeper tans and browns leading. The tendency for dark shades has been showing itself recently, but will assert itself this spring. The tan shade will continue to lead in popularity. Sheerness, of course, is still the leading quality.
Miss May Halliday, of 358 West 145th street, New York City, who is recuperating from a recent illness, begs to thank her many friends for the telegraphs, cards and flowers sent to her while a patient in the St. Luke's Hospital.-Advt.

The first New Masses ball of the year was staged at Webster Hall, 119 East Eleventh street, on Friday evening with a huge crowd attending. It was extremely difficult to dance without jarring your neighbor but in the carnival spirit of the dancers, many of them in costume, no one objected to the density of the crowd. Vernon Andrades' Orchestra from the Renaissance Casino furnished the music. An interesting feature of the decorations was a large screen at the back of the orchestra made entirely from the covers of the magazine, "New Masses." During the intermission, a group of dancers presented by James Harris gave an exhibition of many of the intricate and acrobatic steps of the "Lndbergh Hon."
The ball was given in celebration of new books published by New Masses authors and a number of young writers connected with literary life in Greenwich Village were present. Due perhaps to the inclement weather, only a small group of Harlemites attended the ball.
Shortly afternoon, Saturday, Webster Hall, the scene of Friday night's gay revel, burned to the ground. The cause of the fire has not been determined. The hall, which was recently decorated at a cost of $200,000, has been for some time identified with Bohemian night life of Greenwich Village.
MEN LOVE at first and most warmly; women love last and longest. This is natural enough; for nature makes women to be won and men to win.

Humphrey Sails for Jamaica After Organization of Rebel Adventists
Minister of Harlem Church Elected Head of New Sabbath Day Conference—Will Seek to Unite West Indians
Following the organization last week of an independent conference of Seventh Day Adventists among the Negro churches of the sect in New York City and vicinity, the Rev. James K. Humphrey, pastor of the First Harlem Church and president of the new body, sailed last Wednesday aboard the S. S. Six Aola for Kingston, Jamaica.
The purpose of Dr. Humphrey's visit to Jamaica was announced by Louis Cote his secretary, on Thursday to The Amsterdam News, who declared that the churchman will attempt to contain the members of the denomination into a conference similar to the United Sabbath Day Adventist Conference of Greater New York. Dr. Humphrey, Mr. Coles said, will remain in Jamaica for one month.
The name "Sabbath Day" was adopted by the new body to differentiate from the white conference from which it seceded and which uses the name "Seventh Day." Dr. Humphrey said before sailing. Edward Seems was elected secretary-treasurer of the federation.

Need for Clinging To Work Stressed
Unemployment Conference Sees Necessity for More
The Harlem Church has been a term center since last November, when the Greater New York Conference white governing body of the demission, sought to effect Dr. Humphrey, from his pulpit, because of his promotion of an exclusive community in Upper Park, Atlantic Highlands, N.J.
The church, led by Dr. Humphrey, recently brought an injunction against the New York conference to restrain them from interfering with their work as an independent church. The hearing in the Supreme Court when the white Conference asked for a longer period of time in which to prepare additional indications.
The present trip of Dr. Humphrey is significant in that, at the time of his church's secession last November, he announced that it was but the begin-

Need for Clinging To Work Stressed
Unemployment Conference Sees Necessity for More
The pressing necessity for the Negro to cling fast to his present sources of employment and to strike out forcefully for places in other fields was emphasized by speakers at an unemployment conference Thursday afternoon at the Urban League. 202 West 136th street. Miss Eva D. Bowles of the Y. W. C. A. presided at the session. Employment and placement agencies predominated at the parley which was called to devise ways to consider means of relieving the situation.
Dr. Jacob Goldburg, white, secretary of the health examination service of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, told of the urgent need of applicants having physical examinations before they are sent out by the various agencies on jobs. He pointed out it was a protection to the applicant and a double protection to the employer. Employers are always willing to accept the man with a medical certificate of good health rather than the one who lacks such a certificate, he said.
Miss Mary E. Dowas, white of the Harlem Charity Organization Society spoke of the great demands being made on her organization for relief during this period of unemployment. When this period came to the C. O. W. cases were caused by unemployment, this year 80 per cent were due to lack of work.
Mrs. Elizabeth Coleman of the State Department of Labor told of what that organization was attempting to do in solving the unemployment throughout the city.
T. Armand Hill of the National Urban League stressed the need of going into the service industries: transportation and electrical devices, as a means of helping to give permanent employment to Negro workers.
Mrs. Clara Bruce, assistant resident manager of the Dunbar Apartments, said it was necessary to create a free employment bureau to meet the demands of not only the residents of the Dunbar Apartments, but also of the people of the community.
Observations on the unemployment made by: Rlenzi B. Lemus of the Burcher College of Dining Car Employees, A. L. Court of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Employees, M. Sadie D. Harrison, Negro Welfare Council of New London, Corn. James H. Hubert, executive secretary of New York Urban League, France.

New York Times to Capitalize "Negro" Editorial Last Week Announced Change of Longstanding Policy
According to the following editorial appearing in the March 7 issue of the New York Times, the word "Nerro" will be capitalized in The Times, following a request made by Dr. Robert R. Moton. The editorial was as follows:
"The tendency in typography is generally toward a lessened use of capital letters, yet reverence for things held sacred by many, a regard for the fundamental law of the God, a respect to the offices of men in high authority and certain popular and social traditions have resisted this tendency.
"Races have their capitalized distinction, as have nationalities, sects, and cults, tribes and clans. It, therefore, seems reasonable that a people who had once a proud deservation such as Ethiopians, reaching back into the dawn of history, have come up out of the English speech subjected them, should now have such recognition as the listing of the name from the lower case to the upper case give them.
"Major Robert P. Moton of Tuskegee, the foremost representative of the race in America has written the Times that his people universally wish to see the word 'Negro capitalized. It is a little thing mechanically to grant, but it is not a small thing in its implications. Every use of the capital 'N' becomes a tribute to millions who have risen from a low estate into the brotherhood of races!' The Times joins many of the leading southern newspapers, as well as most of the northern, in according this recognition, our 'style book' 'Negro' is now added, the list of words to be capitalized. It is not merely a typographical change; it is an act in recognition of racial self-respect for those who have been for generations in the lower case."

DETECTIVE CLEARED
Following the fatal shooting of John Meyers, 40, by detective George Brautigan of the Jamaica precinct, the officer was exonerated of all blame Friday morning by officials of the Queens District Attorney's office. The shooting occurred Thursday night at 24 Walston street, Jamaica. According to the detective, he found Meyers, who lived at 160-181 State Street, Jamaica, threatening Mrs. Minnie Thompson of the Walston street address. When he interrupted the detective said, Meyers turned on him and made a move as if to draw a gun. It was then that he fired, he said, the single shot killing the man.

Comes tripping down the Avenue
Taking Liberties with you.

But with milder days you enter

You'd love to take a fling
And buy a wedding ring.

THERE's an old saying that you behind your back your ears to it Lew Leslie sure has a pair of uptown Rialto are giving his name more.
A couple of years ago the pair that Mr. Leslie intended to meet event, was generally believed to be the president of '28 with a Blackbird of '29. M. announced that his next show was production sans colored folks, out a single inkspot to repress Abyssinia, Somaliland, Haidi and to forget the first-night tarnish the big time critics. A Blackbird future.
THERE'S an old saying that when somebody is talking about you behind your back your ears will burn. If there is any truth in it Lew Leslie sure has a pair of hot ears. The boys along the uptown Rialto are giving his name plenty of action and then some more.
A couple of years ago the papers published stories to the effect that Mr. Leslie intended to make the Blackbirds an annual event. It was generally believed that the announcement was authorized by the producer. But instead of following his Blackbirds of '28 with a Blackbirds of '29, Mr. Leslie skipped a year and then announced that his next show would be the International Revue, a program similar to folklore. The International Revue will have a single inkspot to represent such picturesque countries as Abyssinia, Somaliland, Haiti and Liberia. is now on Broadway trying to forget the first-night tanning administered by a majority of the big time critics. A Blackbirds of 1930 is promised for the near future.

Mr formers will insist, is paying them up by the Blackbirds.
TIMES are tight right now and promises don't buy any pigs' knuckles and cabbage in Johnnie Jackson's. What cinnamon performers want at the present juncture, as an orator would say, is not a mess of promises but a salary list long enough to absorb some of the congestion around the Wishing Tree. It is not possible for Leslie to engage all the colored actors who are out of work, nor to have the same problem as the size of elephantine International Revue. But if he should take some sixty odd performers off the bricks he would at least make it easier for pedestrians to pass the Lafayette without crossing to the other side of the street.
When a fellow draws his belt up to the last hole and finds his pants still hanging loose he naturally gets in a mood to say many bitter things when he hitherto been locked in his private room. But when he sees the upstown Gay Way is the assertion that Mr. Leslie has never been able to make a success of a white production and that he uses colored shows merely as a means of recuperating his losses.
THEY point to the cast of the International Revue to sustain their argument. Some of the headliners of that production must rate five-figure salaries, while others are doubtless 'way up in the fours, Argentinita, the Spanish bust, was signed for $3,600 a week. Argentinita, the Spanish bust, will be the know will tell you that this staggering salary list is in contrast to Mr. Lestie's economical method of financing the Blackbirds. They say that if all the principals of the Blackbirds had received all they were supposed to get their combined salaries could have been covered by Argentinita's weekly check, leaving out of action the salaries rated by Gertrude Lawrence, Jack Pearl and Harry Richman, the hungry pro-formers will insist. is paying these huge salaries out of profits pilled up by the Blackbirds.

Instead he if he was awake and then poke him out a "main trouble with the he will not-give himself a break take the place of money, forgetful he receives during an engagement the show has closed.

FROM my point of view, colored actors haven't any just kick come. Mr. Leslie, like all other producers, is a business man, not a philanthropist. He wants to buy the best theatrical talent for the lowest possible price and it is up to the actor to protect his own interests. If Argentinita had been willing to sign a contract for $1,000 a week and actually accept $600, Mr. Leslie would not have forced her to accept $3,600. Instead he would have pinched himself to see if he was awake and then pocketed the difference.
The main trouble with the colored performer is that too often he will give himself a break. He is too eager to let flattery take the place of his apsehume and press praise he receives during an engagement will not happen after the show has closed. If a producer takes advantage of this weakness he is only doing what I would do if I were a producer.
In the meantime chocolate performers are chuckling over the near flop of the International Revue in spite of its topheavy list of headliners. Most of the daily critics viewed it with a fisny eye and one, Mr. Littel of the World, said it was the ugliest thing he had ever seen. On top of that Argentinita took a dive after less than a week's work, but carried her $10,000 along nevertheless. Reading of Mr. Leslie dropping a few grand makes it a little easier for the lad under the Wishing Tree to miss a few meals.
DONT FORGET, while they're hurrying for the marvelous—or is it miraculous—acting in Green Pastures that Lew Peyton is giving eight good performances a week in "The Boundary Line" and ditto Ernest Whitman in "The Last Mile." And these boys are getting by on their own. They are not basking in the reflected glory of Holy Writ.
IMMIE SMITH, of St. Nicholas place and Los Angeles, includes in a very welcome letter the following paragraph:
"Several times you have given considerable space concerning the need or feasibility of establishing a Little Theatre in Harlem. Why not make a definite move in that direction? I am quite sure there are many in Harlem who would support such a movement if a definite organization was formed. I have never been in Harlem to sing any little theatre movement since the inauguration of this column. But I have written copiously on the need of a dramatic theatre. Of course, if we must have a Little Theatre in order to get drama, on with the Little Theatre. If Mr. Smith wishes to ally himself with a Little Theatre organization there is a very good one already in existence. It is the Harlem Experimental Theatre, which meets for rehearsal and other purposes in the 135th street branch of the Public Library. Information can be obtained from Miss Dorothy Peterson, director, 320 Second avenue, or Mrs. Corinne Wright, secretary, 218 West 139th street.
MY MACEDONIAN cry for amateur poets to send in contributions has been answered by Miss Evelyn Jackson, of Brooklyn, who sends in two lyrics which will appear in a future column. Now, if the boys and girls who know good spook yarns will wake up and shoot them hitherward business will pick up.

"GREEN PASTURES" HOLDS CRITICS' FANCY 'Billboard Jackson' Says Talent Not Lateiy Discovered
ANOTHER PRODUCING MANAGER DISCOVERS" NEGRO TALENT
Press Agents and White Newspapers Continue to Regard Every Producer as Originator of Artists, Ignoring Previous Work of Experienced Casts
Is Negro Performer Never to Be Regarded as Hard-Working and Accomplished Professional?
By JAMES A. (BILLBOARD) JACKSON
Another drama with a colored cast has been launched on Broadway; and again we have the spectacle of a producing manager being presented in interviews in the daily press as a diligent searcher through the byways for Negroes capable of depleting the parts called for by the script. This unvarying interview, except as to details dependent upon the press agents' imagination, or whether author or producer is given the credit for the apprehension to uncover and "train the poor benighted Negroes so as to give them stage presence, accompanies the opening of every show presenting Negro artists.

The pernicious habit of depriving the Negro talent of any recognition of its past achievement, any benefits of its experience, or of the utilization of the history of the individual artist, seems to be a fixed policy with the producers and the press. It grudgingly admits the inherent acting ability but uses the esteemed training or professional poise. This prevents performers acquiring reputation, and helps to keep salaries down.
From either inefficiency and downright unwittingness, or with some degree of that inferior complex which labels anything called from the white press as worthy, our own newspaper theatrical editors too often reprint such "hokum" in their pages, thus adding confirmation to the silly storytelling to the business as a demonstration to the business advance of the Negro on the stage. In fairness to the performers in particular and the race in general this thing should stop. Editors of Negro papers should keep themselves informed as to the 4,000 Negro performers and many more thousands of musicians' records so as to be able to rewrite these stories or take exceptions to them. Our newspapers deserve that sort of service; and white editors who use this twaddle need correcting.
"Green Pastures" at the Mansfield Theatre on Broadway is the latest production to be heralded with such press agency. Here again we find the producer discovered his talent in kitchens and other out of the way locations he has found to find a hundred Negro actors, etc. Ye god! Isn't that lich with not less than a half dozen casts idle of the time in New York and Chicago, to say nothing of Los Angeles and the gathering points between those towns. "Goat Alley," "Rosanne," "Porgy," "Epiphany Jones," "All God's calum" and a number of others were treated in much the same manner. This cheap press agency finds a place for splash copy in white theatrical pages with every show. As a consequence as fine assemblages of artists as the country knows are suburbs and cities, as being amateurs instead of well-formed professionals with splendid histories of achievement.
Let's read the cast of "Green Pastures" and see how it reconnects with the New York Herald-Tribune story that is being "lifted" and republished in our papers. The cast sounds like a list of "Who's who on the American stage" or the membership roll of Equity. Florence Mills memorizes Dressing Room Club, Glef Club, C. V. B., and N.W. One. Not a few of them contributed to the fame of another great show that has just closed after a three-year record breaking run under Theatre Guild auspices.
Just note a few of them:

and fully two-thirds qualify as do these to a greater or less degree of professional experience and efficiency. They certainly should not be the alibi for an incompetent stage manager or an impossible piece. If the shows don't go over, it is not because the actors don't know their skills. They do often suffer from geologist producers who know more about what a colored character should do, and how it should be depicted than do his Negro artists who have always been Negroes. Thus they often are handed blame that is not theirs. A lack of history in one line also keeps the stage manager from Let's quit rehashing bunk and let black America know its theatrical folk for what they are.

Danny Small, noted Keith headline artist and producer, created the revue called "Jazz Mine," which is the attraction at the Lafayette Theatre this week. The entire stage of the Lafayette Theatre has been made up to resemble a mine. A large opening has been cut in the stage from which the various artists emerge as they are called upon. All around is a typical mountainous mining set, the band, dressed up as miners, sitting in the mine. One Zeels there is something unusually good doing on at the Lafayette Theatre from the very moment when the curtain rises and the band blares forth as the local Fire Department, Police Department and distinguished citizens of the mining village pass by. The curtain disguises the Mayor, Police Commissioner, the Fire Commissioner and the leading citizens of the town—all in the person of Danny Small.
The artists include Danny Small and his beautiful wife Anita Rivera (they have just finished their engagements at Keith's Palace and tipdipromote). Harry Mays, the Exposition Jubilee Four, the Five Blazes Johnny Lee Long, Freddie Robinson and Pike Davis and his "Black-birds" Orchestra. There is also ubeautiful dancing and singing chorus. The photoplay program for the week includes the world "The Racketeer" the story of crooks and bootleggers and the fastest and most dangerous night life of New York. The cast of "The Racketeer" is headed by Robert Armstrong, Jeanette Loff and Carol Lombard.

Miller, Charlie Davis, Addison Carey, will present at the Lafayette Theatre next week the "4 F Frolics". The cast is made up of some fifty-odd of the finest entertainers now in the East. This includes Clarence Dotson, ranking next to Bill Robinson as the

Talkies Off' to a Big Start at Alhambra
Perfection in talking pictures is what the Alhambra management aimed for—and, after viewing the opening program, it looks as though it has been accomplished.
Buck and Bubbles, who are so popular in Harlem, clown through a new talking comedy called "Fowl Play." It is set at the intense naturalness of the fun.
Then in "Big News" the inside of a great newspaper office is seen, with Robert Armstrong as a fearless reporter who has incurred the enmity of the underworld by exposing the bootlegging and narcotic rings.
The chief editor of the newspaper is involved in throwing suspicion on the reporter and he is arrested for murder. His beautiful young wife, who had been estranged from him, rises to the situation, and, after a series of surprises, the reporter is cleared of the accusation.
"Fast Life" is the musical comedy, with Dusty Fletcher, Margaret Simms, who was so charming in "Hot Chocolates," Kittle Ablaunche, the Three Blackbirds, Jesse Cyran, An-
drew Trible, Monte Hawley, Billie Yarbo and a number of others.
There's a peppy new band, the Skylarkers, and, of course, the latest edition of Alhambra Girls—all joining to create gay and speedy entertainment.
"Behind the Mask," the drama, deals with a strange, misshapen thing of horror called "The Living Skull." who has committed many crimes: Thomas Moseley, Artie Cain and Frances Sheppard have prominent roles. In the end the mystery is solved—but only by the death of "The Living Skull."
This entire program remains at the Alhambra for the remainder of the week ending Sunday.
Bledsoe in Talkie at The Alhambra Next Week
Jules Bledsoe, the Zlegfeld "Showboat" star, has a gorgeous new talking and singing picture called "Old Man Trouble," and it will be one of the features at the Alhambra next week, beginning Monday.
"Painted Faces," a romance of circus life, has Joe E. Brown as its principal star in the character of an acrobat and clown. His love, his heart and his revenge furnish the theme.
Of course, the life among the tents is rich in exciting and amusing incidents, and all the odd sights and noises of the circus will be seen and heard.
Besides the talking pictures there will be the "Spring Follies," a musical comedy revue of considerable splendour. Swimming, gymnastics, Lee, and also a torrid drama of the South Sea Islands entitled "Burning Kisses."

Spreading Joy
(By Popular Request.)
A monkey sits beside the road,
his thoughts were and aloud;
he said, "I want you to be mine!"
A woman's weak and roomy,
I sit here beside the way
and perhaps some cheerful girl
will hand me something from his pay.
That girl is a son of a lot of passed by
and said: "Ah, do poor little monkey!
and from his stale bologna pie
he threw the monk in a hunk.
A Jew threw the monk what way
he put with naive assurance;
he kept you out some udder day
When I gets my fire insurance,
old John Do. out for a stroll,
saw the monkey in his measure roll
and gave, as is his fashion,
The Henry Ford went flashing past
Then Henry Ford went flashing past in a brand new thin pan fillet. The monkey caught the stealth) and the Lord lorges a cheerful silver? Then a handsome Cadillac drew near, it was filled with colored brothers. The monk said: "Now I'll get ten others, and I will steal the steering wheel, and my tale I knocked the monk high as a stepler. And as he fell, folks heard him wall- "MY PEOPLE, OH, MY PEOPLE." SPREADING JOY is one of the purposes of the Florence Mills Theatrical Association that is not specified in the prospectus, but nevertheless it is the paramount object. Last Sunday night, there were miles and miles out from the Association's dispensary. "The Green Pasture" cast entertained Marc Connelly, cast entertained financial backer, and other promoters of the season's greatest hit as a fish graciously prepared and graciously served by members of the organization.
Many noted persons of national and international fame were present. Mr. Weldon Johnson, columnist of the New York Telegram and one of the greatest free-lance writers of all times, was there, the personification of smiling gentility. James Weldon Johnson, secretary for the N. A. A. C. P. author, poet and lecturer; writer White traveler and author of *The Organization and author of "The Fire in the Flint"* "Rope and Fagot" and other books were also honored. George Schuyler, columnist and journalist. Theophilus Lewis, also a writer of high merit represented the press. Curtis, stage manager; Mr. Anch, assistant director and Mr. Roble, treasurer and acting manager for "The Green Pastures" were also programmed. The program rendered was one of the features of the reception. It is seldom that such a renowned and well-versed actor is assembled even for compensation, but these artists were proud and happy to do honor to those who have contributed to the fellow artists and the entire race.
Some of the artists who appeared to the delight of the invited guests of the festival, and doubt the sweetest and most talented singer we boast. Like rare wine, Abbe grows sweeter with age.
J. Rosamond Johnson, plantist, musician and composer, accompanied the first artist to render one of the sweetest selections yet written by Mr. Johnson. "Little Gail" words by the immortal poet Paul Lawrence Dumbar. The first artist to popularize the "Bluish" song made her initial start in show business with Whitney and Tutt's Smarter Set Co. sang as only an artist can and received one of applause.
James Wheeler, one of his great poems with faultless diction and dramatic skill and effect. Good old reliable Bill Ehlins, of Williams and Walker fame, a wonderful voice and a loidist of ability, sang "A Little Grey House in the West."
Marc D'Albert, a graduate from the Chicago School of Music, a doctor of music, remarried a pianist, played a selection from the masters in a mastery fashion.
Richard B. Harrison recited his first dialect reading. Paul Lawrence Davis popular poem. The帕森斯 Daniel popular poem. The帕森斯 feature number from Show Boat, 'Ole Man River'. S. Tutt Whitney read from his book of 'Mellow Musings'. The帕森斯 feature number from the evening's entertainment were: denzo Fenderson, Josephine Byrd, George Randall, Hayes Priver, one of the brothers of William R. Williams, Daniel Bythwood. The Conway Brothers Quarrette, celebrated society entertainers, Mrs. Francis Smith, Thomas R. Hill, Francis Smith, Thomas R. Hill, Junior Wayley Asher and Arthur Porter Morris McKinney, Wesley Hill and Leigh Whipner, leading stars of the great drama. Evelyn Burrell, director of the charleston Pictures' wonderful choir. The charleston a wonderful attainment. Donald Heywood, who ranks with our ignition composers and the writer of the black Heywood, 'Pay Day', and the 'Black Heywood' 'Pay Day', and the Miss Burrell at the midsummer.
Meredith Gilbert, a dramatic reader, and a writer of several sketches, is known that is now with the fashion of the man, unintentionally being used from the program. Miss Gilson is one of the best dialect readers in the business and we regret sincerely that those present were denied the opportunity of hearing some of her delightful stories and poems.
The second feature of the program was the Fish Fry. The food, the service, the decorations, in fact the Pork Fish Fry ensemble could not have been surpassed and the artist directly responsible for the success of the major important item of the particular was Billy Demont, of the popular, a赞誉er of the erotical and dergent. He was most ably assisted in Mr. Jackson, his father of the English Jackson, the swimmer, Sam Tolson, Pauline Jackson (in person) and St. Alton D'Pina.
P.P.P.ாீo headed the receiving center.
At has had the contact with the education, polish, and biometry essential for such as the work of the Grotter and George Irvin.
With a成绩� performed with German, Mr. Connelly, and Mr. Brown, Mr. Curtis, and Miss Davie were introduced.
BROUN AND OTHERS ENTERTAINED SUNDAY Many at Florence Mills Association to Enjoy "Fish Fry"
Night Club Talkie
At the Roosevelt Theatre
Metropolitan gangsters and night club life furnish the background for the dramatic sensation starring Blanche Sweet and Tom Moore, which will be shown at the Roosevelt Saturday, Sunday and Monday at The Women's Racket is one of the first accurate portraits of New York's racketeering game. A good idea of how the Hollywood studios will be gained by those who see "Talk of Hollywood," the talkie, singing and dancing hit which will be shown on Friday, day and Wednesday, March 18 and 19. Narr Carr and Fay Marbe head the cast, which includes Al Goodman's orchestra and the Leonidoff Baller.
Mae Murray talks, and dances in "Peacock Alley," her first all-talking picture, which is to be shown at the Roosevelt Thursday and Friar Tuesday specials. She is who who is internationally known as a dancing star, rehearsed four weeks for her dancing specials in "Peacock Alley."
Warner Brothers' "Show of Shows" at the Douglas
Every once in so often there is produced a picture which is so tremendous in its scope, so beautifully and action, so crammed with star names, that its very magnificence sums one. Such a film is "The Show," a 1950 musical revue, which plays at the Douglas Theatre for four days beginning Saturday, March 15 until Tuesday, March 18.
It was years ago, Gold Medal Director John Ford became convinced that a highly dramatized picture could be produced without a woman in the lead. He has to have to be a tremendous story to overcome the handicap of unconventionality. Searching for such a story is attracted by the submarine disasters which occurred in recent years.
Thus was born "Men Without Women"—a crew marooned in a cave, surrounded by thoughts to women—each enwrapped with a vision of a woman he had known.
Don't fail to see this all-talking Theatre Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, March 19, 20, 21.
Lincoln Has Dr. Fu Manchu This Thursday and Friday
Continuing the splendid talking picture programs which the Lincoln Theatre is now offering its patrons, the taking picture theatre announces for presentation on Thursday and Friday the season's most gripping melodrama, the "Mysterious Dr. Pru Manchu."
A varied and interesting program of short screen subjects and Vitaphone vaudiele acts is also being presented on Thursday and Friday, together with the "Mysterious Dr. Pru Manchu."
What would you do if you were a police officer and you found your own father's body? You do your duty and send him to prison for many years or would you sacrifice your duty and honor that your own father might go free?
Bryan Boyd, enacting the role of Police Captain O'Brien, has to decide in the amazing underworld talking melodrama, "Offerer O'Brien," which will take place on the Lincoln theatre on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, March 15, 16 and 17.
Wife of Well Known
Performer Died Last Week
News came here last week bringing the information that Mrs. Leo Bailey, who will be remembered by many business professionals the late Robert Bonner, who was well known in amusement circles, died at Seattle, Washington, after an illness that lasted for three years. Mrs. Bailey had been suffering from high blood pressure, but did not give any signs of unusual illness until a few months ago. She was also well known in Greater New York and was among the earliest of Neo performers to find success in Europe after making good on the stage here. Wm. Bailey was 80 years old and has been in vaudeville until recently when he was induced to again return to the musical comedy show. Mr. Bailey is at present in New York City and will most likely be on his way to Washington within the next few days. Of her relatives Mrs. Bailey is the mother of her husband. In the days when her brother was a well known character in sporting circles and operated a cafe in the city, Mr. Bonner had a host of friends here who will learn with regret of her death.
Green Sails for London
Doe Doe Green, who scored a personal triumph in Garland Anderson's "Appearances," sailed Saturday, where he met the comedian will appear in the part he created in this country. The play is underlined for presentation within the next two or three weeks. Mr. Anderson is confident that "Appearances" will find in Europe that response which it failed to find will be forced to withdrawn after its New York revival some time back. As in the past, The Amsterdam News will be the first to carry a full and detailed account of the reaction of Britishers to the play.
Duced to the delight of the large numbers of their friends and admirers, the regular Sunday evening Frolics will be continued at the Association. All are invited. Every Wednesday evening the girls of the organization call the association a call. The association has also been desigated the official club of "The Green Pastures" cast. Telegrams and appointments, etc., for any member of the cast will be taken care of there.

The story has a theatrical setting, ending with the good old familiar *A gorgeous technicolor love* and a gorgeous technicolor feature of "Pointed Heels." The famous William Powell is cast in an unusual role for him, that of a demi-female singer, and the songs, pretty girls, new music and a wealth of gorgeous scenes make this all talking, singing and dancing special. The music is the singing of Helen Kane, original "boo-booa-doop" girl, in her typical baby-voiced style; another feature is the gorgeous Pointed Heels' rare entertainment. You are certain to enjoy this.

"Jazzlips" Is Modest
"JAZZLIPS" Richardson, star performer of "Hot Chocolate's," the musical rqueue which is at Wertha's like a kiss to think that his good fortune is credential, and that the fact that Lady Luck has taken up her abode on his doorstep is just a happen-so. This attitude is not a pose, but is an outstanding characteristic of Richardson's. That characteristic is modest. Richardson started his career before he made a shake charmer at something like a dance, imagines that, as a shake charmer, he wasn't too terrified, since one of his little charges took a nip at him one utter that Richardson became a dancer. He didn't evolve all at once into the artist he is today. First, he had a session with the Georgia Minstrels, with whom he was the "Wild Man of Georgia," has also played with the Allen Carrion, eventually, after dancing around somewhat, he was taken on Connie's Inn. He
"you city, it is made. Not. It is made with Connie, and so he got the good old gate. For a year or so, then, he danced around here and there and most there. He learned to feel out what they wanted. What they wanted. He went back to Connie and Connie took him on again. Then came "Hot Chocolates." It was a pretty good show, still a little rough, but he got the making. Details had not yet smoothed out and, just before opening, somebody discovered that there was getting one of the scenes changed—nobody to go on during the change. You've guessed it! "Jazzling" went on and took over the show. He went on and gave his audience what they wanted. He doesn't cheat in his work—and audience, a critical first-night set of grouchers, saw here somebody "different." "Chocolates" will play its last week on his side of the river at Werba's Jamiesa Theatre, starting Monday, March 17.

Duke Ellington to Play For the "Harlem Revels"
In keeping with its tradition of being the dance classic of the season, the "Harlem Revels," which occur this year on Saturday night, March 22, at Rockland Palace, 1516th street and Eighth avenue, will have no less an orchestra than the famous Duke Ellington's. And Duke Ellington will be present, first, the Renaissance Revels" was held last year at the Renaissance Casino and was a gorgeous success, drawing many even from out of town places like Builtmore and Washington. This year's concert will be bigger and better than ever and, accordingly, secured the huge Rockland Palace and one of the best orchestras the city affords. No expense is spent in playing it the dance classic of the season.
"Harlem Revels" is promoted by The Liberator, weekly organ of the American Legion, Labor Congress and Labor Union. The labor union Unity League, the new trade union center which is organizing Negro and white workers together in the same city, is the organizer of the League. The league has already succeeded in winning the harred of the plantation owners and bankers of the south in a pungent palign against the influence of the imperialist ideology of race hatred among the white workers. The League is giving the fullest support to the League in its work. Several ticket stations have been established in Harlem. Location of the station is consulting the newspaper and poster advertising for the affair.

In Pastures Green
BY THE EDITOR.
I like a silver cloud forcing its way through dark skies came to Harlem a ray of hope and optimism reflected in the joy which the news of the opening of the Mansfield Theatre brought at its opening last week. Of course, as in the past, we expect to hear from the artists who have not yet been counted—those places from which we can always look for the discordant note brought about by that ignorance which we collectively have not quite quite that quite a few of the brethren will agree with this humble correspondent that it has never been charged that we are forbessed with any abundance of gifts, and that we were praying to gods other than that which the white man ussus when he came to Africa with his ship, and that bottle of gin in the other should, we believe, leave enough room to put into play that imagination which so often seems to be the theatre when we go to see a show.
So overwhelming has been the acclaim which greeted the appearance of the book, particularly concerned with hastiness to carry to the four corners of the earth the consensus of opinion being anxiously looked for than the stereotyped view of the book, by brothers of the fourth estate of lighter hue which comes to us with the stamp of approval of so learned an observer as Mr. Walter White of the University of Chicago. And for the benefit of readers more anxious to know of the possibilities of a real show to which we can from time to time find some form of real enjoyment than in the washroom of Harlem, we experience real joy in broadcasting that all is well and all so desiring can graze in pastures at a farm in the immediate vicinity. Marked courtesy awaits all prospective auditors at the Mansfield. In their rush to please Broadway the Negro theater, we have in the immediate vicinity Mr. Marc Connell down to the stage-door man, hospitality has been extended to all having business at places. Even those morbid curiously interested with a tolerance bespeaking the restraint of those in charge.
That which particularly appeals to this humble chronicler in the warmth with which "The Green Pastures" has been written, any prompts, has brought forth those. voluntary lines of appreciation and approval which appeared in every newspaper from early last Thursday, and which will more be written about the show as time passes. Presented for what it was worth, it was accepted with without any sentimental bollering up with any sentimental comment on the part of the critics to lend their aid to what they had been previously told was necessary to help "the Negro Brooklyn last Sunday one of the foremost churches of the largest churches spoke on 'The Green Pastures' to his congregation and told his people that this show is the Negro's "Passion Play." and the corporal's guard which said anything in "Porg" or in the splendid rendition of the spirituals by

"The Green Pastures" says Rowland Field in the Brooklyn Daily Times, "is, in my estimation, one of the most important plays seen in years. It excels in just about everything that represents the theatre in its importance as one of the major arts."
We hail "The Green Pastures" with this title, a production with Negro actors "making it on Broadway," for when time comes that some writer among us rises to give the world a "Christmas Carol." Or something that will stir the theatrue by sheer force of its dramatic value, it is Broadway that is going to give us the chance, and not that Harlem, absolutely dead to our appeal, will be for the better things in the theatre.
And, so we conclude today's epistle with the opinion of another Brooklyn writer, Donald Mulhern of the Standing Rock Sioux, a splendid article wherein he found Richard B. Harrison impressive but not pretentious; calm, compassionate, capable of anger but also of forgiveness; and humanly irritable about his shortcomings, as Lord Jehovah. "A production like this should run indefinitely. A subscription list like that would insure that it would do so. If the Green Pastures" (and it, probably will) endures long enough for word-of-mouth promotion of it to be effective. "A great cure for a long time to come."

"Wade in De Water"
IN writing this play, "Wade in de Water," I have simply attempted to bring to life some of the great characters of some of the great Negro women of the past who were unaccentuously makers of history for a race.
Born in New York City and reared in Yonkers on the Hudson, where in my childhood were made some of the most famous people in the South, I was fired with the determination to go to the Southland to teach my people and, as a girl I never tired hearing about the struggles of my family in the South, I pursued my personal responsibility to God to help my race every way possible.
After many persuasions and misgivings, I met the person I am named after, Tina Schuller, Lawrenceville, Va. It was here that I first came in touch with "Old Lady Simmons," who lived in a little cabin on the campus of the University of Arkansas dames lussieu, the foundation the school. It was around her fireplace that he had many gatherings and thus began the friendships I prized and the friendships I had. It might be interesting to know that one of the white characters of "Wade in de Water" is a combination of three people, one a leading woman of the comedy troupe and the other a kind treatment to her colorful body. It stands in the center of a very small roadway (whenever she saw the girls from the school out for a walk), in such a place that she could cut in the road to pass her. I never and also but pity for the poor old soul.
It was while teaching in a country school that I met and learned to love Sophie, Sis Creasy, Hattle May, Mr. Turner and Tom Jenkins. I met the many one white families I met. My Malinda Johnson in "Wade in Water" lived and breathed through a water garden. I met the near her in Georgia, where the tragedy occurred. It is to this dear old mamma whom I visited in Georgia that I owe her. The details of her life in Malinda's life have a high sense of right and wrong. . . her love for her people. . . her loyalty to her white water. . . her sincerely hope that "Wade in Water" will inspire other writers to bring their work forward and not be afraid to produce to the public. Nero Art Theatre in the Urban League, 2002 West 136th street, "Wade in Water" presents each Saturday and Sunday at 11 a.m., March 5, and Sunday, March 5.

ARLINE, Sr. Mr. Thomas B.—In memory of my dear husband and father, who departed this life March 5, 1929.
We mourn for him in silence. We eyes can see us weep; Still the heart is shed, While others are naked. Off and off our thoughts do wander. To that grave so far away, Where they laid your husband Just twelve months ago today.
Dear Daddy you are not forgotten. Though on earth you are no more, As you remember you are with us, As you are

FENNICKS - In and loving memory of our beloved daughter and sister, Laura Fennels (nee White), who departed this life March 9, 1823.
You bade one no a last farewell,
You said good-bye to none;
Your spirit fled before we knew
That we had come us had gone.
We little thought we could no near
When last we saw you smiling;
You looked so strong and well
We little thought you dying.
There is a link death cannot sever-
Love and remembrance last forever.

GREEN, John H.—In loving memory of my dear brother, who departed this life March 19, 1929.
The midnight stars are beaming
Upon the silent grave
Where sleeps without beaming
I could not save.
No one knows how much I miss you.
No one knows the bitter吻
I have suffered since I lost you.
Life to me does not seem the same
At evening, when the shadows are
falling.
Sweet memories guarded with pain
Steal into my heart with a long;
Only I could see your smiling
face.

Views Ideals of Christ Loftiest
Views Ideals of Christ Loftiest
None Can Be Compared to Jesus, Asserts M. E. Superintendent
Regardless of their loftiness, the ideals of no man can be compared with those of Jesus, declared the Rev. Hough Houston, district superintendent. in a sermon Sunday morning at St. Mark's M. E. Church, 55 Edgecombe avenue.
Speaking on the subject "Let Him Follow Me," the minister asserted that men without ideals are certain to degenerate into smallness. The speaker took a rap at the growth of scoffers at the idea of a God, declaring that no argument against the Divine Entity is convincing because personal experiences reveal his existence.
There is nothing new in temptations offered the Christian today, said the Rev. A. J. Cuffe of St. Mark's Church, Bridgeport, Conn., in his discourse Bridgeport, 175 West 51st St., Cyprian's Church, 175 West 51st St., the old things are simply done in a modern way, the minister said.
Eight persons were united with Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, 140 West 137th street, following the sermon of the Rev. S. A. McNelli, presiding elder.
Speaking on "The Test of Conversion," the Rev. N. W. Clark, pastor of Williams Institutional C. M. E. Church, 218 West 138th street, told his flock that a man is free only in proportion to his knowledge of the truth. The Hubert Harrison Memorial Church, 149 West 136th street, will observe its tenth anniversary Sunday at Imperial Hall, 160 West 129th street, 160 West Presidale and the Rev. William Lloyd Ims, pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church, will speak on "Radicalism or Conservation—Which?"
Church to Celebrate
Seventh Anniversary
The Grace Congregational Church, of which the Rev. Dr. A. C. Garner is pastor, 308 West 139th street, will begin the observance of its seventh anniversary on Sunday, with exercises that will continue until the 23d. The program, which will open with the anniversary sermon by Dr. Garner, will begin the progress of the church since it is founded. Various auxiliaries of the church will conduct the meetings each night.
The church was founded by the Rev. Mr. Garner, who came here from the Plymouth Congregational Church in Washington, where he had served for over twenty-five years. The first worship was held at the West Church, West X. Street A; his church merged with the Harlem Congregational Church, and moved into its present home.
The membership is near a thousand. At one time the church conducted a day nursery.
Dr. Garner is chaplain of the 369th Infantry.

The Rev Mr. Edmard was introduced to the audience by the bishop. The Harlem congregation was welcomed by the Rev. Herbert J. Glover, white.
The church was filled to overflowing by hundreds of communicants and who wished to withes a practical example of interracial fellowship in religion.

Well, readers, here goes the big Soo chin troop we have been talking. Now, let's take it to one of Harlem's leading troops.
evenings are for the memorial. St. Philip's Passing the Parish House on West 133rd Street near Seventh avenue. Tuesday evenings, the sounds coming from within the parish will convince one of the jolly Sisters that the movie is the Scoutmaster of this troop; take my word for it, you can't tell the Scoutmaster from the boys—just one movie. On Monday evening the writer attended a Scout movie show at St. Philip's club rooms, and it looks as if the movie is some movies. First, the Scoutmaster that that he is going to show what we want on during troop hiking. And believe me, that's funny. The Reunion is a troop composed of younger boys, a troop on Wednesday evenings at the Parish House, another branch of the St. Philip's family. And for the whole St. Philip's group—"Just One Great Family"

NEW YORK CITY
Radio News and Programs BY RICHARD L. BALTIMORE
WMCA, WNYC and WGBS
New York stations are now engaged in one of the most bitter fights ever to come before the Federal Radio Commission. A decision, which will be of great moment; in radio circles, will be handed down soon. When paper goods are announced, the WMCA and WNYC, former enemies, are now arrayed against WGBS.
In brief, the trouble started originally over a hard and fast battle in a district should be separated by at least 50 kilocycles. This arrangement was maintained until WGBS was given the frequency of 600 kc. supposedly for experimental purposes. This lessened the separation WMCA to 20 kc.
After considering the opinions of various expert witnesses introduced by both sides, the commission decided to appoint a representative to depart from our old policy of keeping stations in the same field 50 kilocycle apart and grant WGES a permanent station. We disregard the 50-kilocycle controversy and determine whether the public interest, convenience and necessity would justify a query to a Connecticut station (WTC, Hartford), on the theory that it belongs there, or assign it to WGES on the theory that it is going to be the key station in a nationwide broadcast chain.
Each station has something to gain. WNYC does not want it itself, but if it goes, it goes a wave-length then WNYC will go a wave-length then the value of that particular slice of it far from a minor consideration. WGBS cost Dastay Daskalman $15,000 when the purchased it from Gimbel on the 600 kc. is rated from $500,000 upward. A half of a million makes the changed wave-length worth defending for. These figures may be interesting, but to 5, March to Saturday, 15, inclusive, as a typical one, the following are the number of hours each station employs NEGRG. On WMCA, 6% hours; on WNYC, 4% hours; and on WNYC, 20% minutes.

New Exhibit Opens At Downtown Club
Artists Show Sculpture and Paintings on Park
Avenue
An exhibit of painting and sculpture by Negro artists opened last Wednesday evening at the Women's City Club, 22 Park avenue. The exhibit is under the direction of Mrs. Arthur C. Holden, white, and will continue for several days, the length of the exhibit depending on the interest shown.
Much of the work on display was shown at International House during the Harmon Foundation Exhibition some weeks ago. Among the artists represented in the exhibition are Aaron Douglas, Hale Woodruff, W. Alfred Jonathan Russell, William E. Scott Palmer Hayden, Henry O. Tanner, Meirvin Gray Johnson, Sarrent Johnson, Richard Barthe, Albert Smith, Augusta Savage and C. E. Braxton.
While most of the work displayed, particularly in painting, deals with foreign themes and subjects, the outstanding pieces of the entire exhibit are those which seek to portray that life about which the Negro artist knows first-hand—namely, his own. Among the latter is Richard Barthe's sculpture, "Bootblack With Broom." Melvin Gray Johnson's painting, "Water Boy," and a printing called "The Maker of Goblins," the last named a study of a boy and a jack-o-lantern.

Woman Taxicab Operator, Mother of Eight, Gets Thrill From Occupation
Mrs. Odie N. Jones Not Only Pilots Machines Through Traffic, but Also Guides the Affairs of Big Household
"The thrill of driving through heavy traffic fascinates me." Mrs. Odie N. Jones, independent taxicab operator and the mother of eight children, told The Amsterdam News on Friday in her home at 232 West 135th street. "When traffic is tied up and every driver is wondering how he is going to get through." Mrs. Jones continued, "that's when I'm happiest."
Three years ago Mrs. Jones, who is in her early thirties, felt the need of increasing the family budget. A lover of sports, she decided to learn to drive a car with the idea in mind of starting a taxi service.
Two years ago she started with a small Chandler car, which she drove herself. Now family established and well on the road, to success. Mrs. Jones owns a Cadillac touring car and a taxicab.
In addition to these two cars, Mrs. Jones has at her disposal numerous other cars which she hires for all occasions. As she dangled Edward Jones, Jr., her youngest, a curly-headed brown baby of four months, on her knee, Mrs. Jones said: "Driving a car has never seemed like work to me. I like the thrills which driving affords and I like to feel the rush of wind in my face. On the other hand, I dislike housework." When asked whether or not the tail lights are luxurious at present, Mrs. Jones said: "Fairly so, despite the recent Wall Street crash, which is blamed at present for everything."

MUSIC
BY COBRA GARY KILLIDGE
To Observe Beethoven's Death
The 103d anniversary of the death of Ludwig Beethoven, who was born Dec. 16, 1770, at Bonn-on-the-Rhine, will be celebrated two weeks from today. In fact, Beethoven Week will be celebrated March 20 through the 26, during which time discussions and presentations of Beethoven's compositions will take place. There were innumerable handicaps for Beethoven to endure, but these did not discourage his spirit in advancing always as a pianist, but most of all as a composer. He began composing as early as eight years of age.
In his early twenties, Beethoven began to look upon music as a voice from within, calling man to the high-ground of life. Music to him was no entertaining islaidoscope of tones and rhythms, but the warm word of the heart.
Beethoven is known as the founder of modern musical art and is commonly counted one of the three supreme musical geniuses, by many the greatest of the three. His work is composed of three successive manners: the first is simply to the orderly methods of Mozart; the second presents increasing impulsive deviations from strict regularity—abrupt shifts, expanded episodes, a marked tendency to let the material dictate new idioms; the third, often shows the positive over-balancing of an emotional factor by the stress of self-expression, that the result is difficult, abstruse, occasionally almost incoherent.
The Schubert Club
On Program
The Church of The Heavenly Rest, of which Rev. Henry Darlington is rector, at 2 East Ninethel street, was filled to capacity Sunday afternoon to hear The Schubert Club in a program of choral music. After the processional hymn was sung by the choir of the church, the rector introduced the club, which gave the following program; and Mr. Fischer's tune: "Legend 'When Jesus was a Little Child'" by Techakowsky; Margeston's arrangement of Blize's "Adarletto"; Stainer's "In the Death of a Man;" Bach's Christmas oratorio; "Come and Thank Him;" "Lord. Thou Alone Art God" by Mendelssohn; "Lead Kind Light" by Stainer; Margeston's "Hark. Hark My Soul" and Dett's "Listen to the Lamps." These last three, in which Rose Margeston soloist, were among the best renditions.
Two spirituals were included—"Swing Low Sweet Charity" and "Go Down Moses," the latter being the weakest of the entire program.
This program was given in response to an invitation of the rector to promote fellowship between the races. The dignity, as well as the sincerity of purpose, with which this club carries out a program is indeed remarkable. The splendid interpretation of the members, especially in the performance of the classics, is notably outstanding. Should the progress of this group continue, there is no doubt that it shall be classed among the best choral organizations. Edward Margeton is the director.
Organist Pleases Large Audience
A large audience presented itself at the auditorium of the Mother A.
Jones' birthplace.
The younger children, Edward, four months; Rudolph, two; Peter, three, and Juanita, twelve are with their parents, and Mrs. Jones must, pilot a home as well as a car. She conducts her taxi agency directly from her home.
As she concluded the interview, Mrs. Jones laid Edward, J., back in his crib and said: "He is going to drive for me when he grows up. Aren't you, son?" Edwardurgled in childish glee; one almost imagined that he said "Yes."

M. E. Zion Church, Monday evenings, to listen to an organ recital by Ulysses Garrison Chambres, an outstanding exponent of the art of organ playing. It would be superfluous to rehearse M. E. Zion Chambres' achievements in his field endeavor, his remarkable facility, his technical and authoritative interpretation. His programs, no less fine, seem always to contain just the right balance of serious and less serious compositions.
Shorter numbers, little musical gems, that were particularly effective and well received by the audience Al Conveyed Borodin, "Even Song" by Buston and "Second Arabesque" by Debusy. The organist was assisted by Doris Troman, soprano, who sang "With Verdure Clad" from Haydn's "Great Grey Cedar" by Redeemer and My Lord" by Buck. Her renditions pleased the audience.

The "Iron Duke" on the Pan
THEY call Mr. Muldouon of the Boxing Commission the "Iron Duke", and we opping there's a lot to that title as he apparently rules his associates with an iron hand. In his presence, if we are to judge by the newspaper reports, they remain silent when he hands down an epic from the bench, but as soon as he leaves they hasten to inform the newspaper that the former pilot of Muldouon's Pickanninies spoke only for himself.
The case of George Godfrey is the latest to hold the attention of the populace, which serves to direct attention to the fact that Mr. Muldouon on numberless occasions has stepped beyond the bounds of office. It does not take an unusually intelligent person to recognize that Mr. Godfrey is being given the old run-around and we register wonder that it has occasioned surprise in circles that should know better.

Muldoon Has It On Mussolini
THE so-called "Iron Duke" has made of himself a dictator in boxing that leaves Signor Mussolini looking like the veriest tyro. When the commission was created it was with the idea of having the commission be made up of boxing but Mr. Muldoon tried out the idea of telling matchmakers what to do and as it worked without a howl on the part of taxpayers he unconsciously believed himself the Great God of the boxing game and so to do unintentionally hand called. The boxing commission was then forced to be simply to police the affairs of boxing, albeit they were later allowed discretionary powers in meting out a brand of justice that made all the figures carved out of stone to decorate courts of law do a slight speed in placing a ban on George Godfrey when a gentleman speed in a fight that they claimed was no fight at all, at all, some time ago in Boston. It has been the custom for the aggrieved parties, whether imaginary or otherwise, to put in a claim with the comrade Mr. Godfrey, being of sepia that felt the heavy hand of the Duke before anybody came forward to ask that George be penalized.
Newspapers Are Up In Arms
THE Scott-Sharkey palooka in Florida gave in the newspaper game something to add to the against Mr. Mulloon, and one night they woke up it was unfair for such a big piece of cheese like to enter the country and be rewarded so highly numbered because it was throughout the entire workings of the plan man to take Gene Tunney's place, the New York son has religiously steered clear of even consider when the Primo started to carry on it was so easy the equal objection that we were in the ring with Camera, we again register in nobody up to the existing state of affairs, late than never and we sincerely wish the New Y success in its effort to win belated recognition for
THE Scott-Sharkey palooka in Florida gave the white boys in the newspaper game something to add to the many demerits against Mr. Muldoon, and one night they woke up to the fact that the Camara was to enter the country and be rewarded so highly for engaging a number of pushovers in what they choose to call-fights. Throughout the entire workings of the plan to uncover the man to take Gene Tunney's place, the New York Boxing Commission, the New York City Police Department, when the Primo started to carry on it was so evident to even the casual observer that Godrey was the logical man to throw in the ring with Carrera, we again register faint wonder that the man was the existing state of affairs. However, better late than never and the existing state of affairs. You better succeed in its effort to win belated recognition for Godrey.

WITH enough evidence with which to base an opinion on hand it is hard for us to enthuse when one of the local sheets rouses us from that deep sleep in which they are found when loyal friends are calling for sympathy, but just an honest desire that justice be done. No matter what they say in deploring such terrible matchmaking as instanced in the case of Carrera, Sharkey and the others, it noteworthy that they give as much space to these so-called fights. It is worth noting that written that silence would have a wonderful effect, except on those who have reserved, pan the prospective bouts. This would have a salutary effect, whether the match is made by Muldoon or the people employed at the various clubs for just such a purpose. The truth of the matter here where Negroes are concerned is that their politicians usually use the ends instead of the rights of the people as a whole when they get a chance to hold the attention of the powers that be.
Humor in The Mirror's Fight
WE are trying as hard as we can to visualize Mr. Hear acting as a messenger boy for the Boy. We have before us a copy of the New York Dailying one of those time-worn blurs from a local aide who was a messenger boy. We half of colored citizens all over the country,ehard drum without the accompaniment of any other will soon realize how shallow it sounds. This gee-gee time is the fight in behalf of God. People everywhere are at last convinced that the rotten in Denmark. There has been something rotten so long wow how it is possible for men to go so long without smite. Our duty is to gently gesture made by some time ago, this local edition absolutely the commission as "our friends." Then comes to the other contribution to the Mirth of a Nation I—he personally interceded the commission and went to the old Pioneer A. C. and the commission's orders to put in mud boots.
Now. Boys. Please Dunt Esk
WHY did the commission need a special agent? Buckley and McMahon to tell them to go. And since the editor was acting as a "special agent" stop at the Pioneer and the Olympia? It is strange that the commission had suddenly become could not use the same means in notifying boxing. Little Olympia and the Lilo Plum could all of the other clubs when they had something to do. The whole truth of the matter is that Georget making things hum with his at the time splined Danish and after. Messrs. McMahon a shown the commission several days before no one put on sepia-white bouts in the little club hands in a fatherly bouts and wished two men the game all the success in the world. McMahon mergered and had staged all kinds of mixed bouts coming to the arena and what the case calls "payers suit to demand fair" the case of "see what I did in behalf of the race bunk" for what it is worth, nothing more, nothing less.
WHY did the commission need a special agent to go to Manila? Buckley and McMahon to tell them to put on mixed bouts? And Buckley and McMahon to "special agent" why did he stop at the Ploneer and the Olympics? Fassing strange that the commission had suddenly become helpless could not use the same means in notifying box promoters at the Ploneer and the little Ploneer same as they do in the case of all the other bouts to notify them about. The whole truth of the matter is that the commission making things hum with his at the time splendid little fighter, Manny Edwards, and after Messrs. McMahon and Buckley had him put on sepia-white bouts would do no harm to let them put on sepia-white bouts in the world, gave their hands in a fatherly fashion and wished two men saved their game all the success in the world. McMahon, it will be re-engineered all kinds of mixed bouts even before the coming of the commission called for was a taxpayer's suit to demand fair play at the hinds. This "see what I did in behalf of the race bunk" should be accepted for what it is worth, nothing more, nothing less.
Splendid Subjects for Hypnosis
Despite the many lessons learned from the number of our so-called friends in the opposite wing of the experiences reaching back to the days when the okey brother went to Africa with relief, we in the other we become hypnotized of the smile in the other we accept as he says when he condescends to let him. At this time we are thinking of how a perf of oins in the game told the world that he knew facet of his imperson would fight George. God time. He knew it himself, as he state inside. Instead of looking about, we certain conditions, to say nothing of also taking the proverbial pinch of salt, he rushed into print the same since. When we lay our dough on the linel it has ever been that georges count, are not choosers, finances and go to the highest in land for Godfrey against a fossilized commission and until then, if you know what we mean, will we er in boxing of that justice which we crave.
THE KING FREES! GOGAN
Despite the many lessons learned from the hypocrisy of a number of our so-called friends in the opposite race, to say nothing of theences reaching back to the days of our forebears when the oaf betrayed Africa with religion in one hand and a bottle of gin in the other, the hypnotized in the presence of the smile from the oaf and a gospel anything he says when he condescends to let us hear him.
At this time we are thinking of how a perfectly good friend of ours in game told the world that he knew as a matter of fact that Jack Damagey fight George.Godfrey at a certain time. He knew it to be a fact he fighted, he was on the inside. Instead of looking about him and taking together of certain conditions, to say nothing of also taking the matter, with the providential mind of salt, he rushed into print and hasn't been the same since. When we say our sight on the line we can demand as it has ever been that beggars are not chosen. Let us pool our finances and go to the highest court in the land seeking justice for Godfrey against a fossilized commission and then, and not until then, if you know what we mean, will we enjoy a little taste in boxing of that justice which we crave.

Hebrews Threw Bad Scare Into Followers of Renaissance Five Here by Great Basketball Game Last Sunday Night COLLEGE TEAMS WENT INTO TIE
A team from the Young Men's Hebrew Association, hurriedly pressed into service, came within a few points from the Renshaw Renaissance Five for their first season of the season at the Renaissance Casino last Sunday night.
The indomitable will to win of Nike Saatch, transferred into rapid, intense play, plons from the ignomy of being defeated by what appeared to us as a nondescript team of little class. The scout was the Atlanta Flashes, a colored team from Georgia, was booked and advertised as the Rens' opponents, and late as Friday of last week the Rens' opponents were on deck that they would be on deck. A large crowd, among which were many Georgia fans, came out to see the Atlanta contingent perform against the Rens, and were at their non-appearance. Their absence, however, made possible a game full of unexpected excitement. The Rens' players had thought that the Hebrews could win, but a decent battle against the champions, but the visitors were not aided by the presence of the Rens, and went on to win the basket. They went to the front scene after the Rens scored the first point
MORGAN COLLEGE FIVE TO MEET TUXEDO TIGERS
---
Northern New Jersey has been the scene of some of the best basketball games staged this year and running true to tradition, the Tuxedo management has strained a point to bring to sport lovers of this section another extraordinary basketball attraction on Monday night, March 17, when Morgan College Varsity (five times national collegiate champions), will be the guests of the Tuxedo Tigers. For quite some time the fans of New Jersey have been anxious to see their court hook up with the back of Morgan College's callibre. Manager J. Richard Lee has been on the trail of the collegiate champs for some time. In bringing Morgan to Orange it will bring "Lanky" Jones, "Pinkey" Clark and "Wilmur" Jones back to the very court on which they learn the passing, losing balls through the whipped ball, and first time that these three lads have had the opportunity to return to the court which gave them their basket-tenure and they have solemnly promoted and their stuff at the old Titan Auditorium.
The Tigers, under Coach "Marse" Hill, a former member of Morgan's championship team, have had a pretty good season. The team has played some of the best basketball displayed on Jersey courts this season and the contest. Coach Morgan is a fitting climax. Coach Morgan is a fitting climax. Chances of winning this game; for the first time this season he has his entire squad in perfect condition. The whole team is fired to the realization that victory over the collegiate champions will be in the practice sessions Hill has been at a loss to name a first team. To date the starting line-up for this season with the Morgan Bears is unknown. In bringing together these teams the Tuxedo management is trying to satisfy those who are tired of the challenge in basketball. The club expects to have a strong team at the Titan Auditorium and special arrangements have been made to accommodate the Morgan College team as well as the true and tried cheering squad and their friends.

Feeling sure that they could go out and win, they and the Rens made a few changes their line-up, calling Ricks to the bench, and switching Slocum to forward. Hill took the pivot position, and visitors kept up their good playing against this... combination, and marched step for step with the champs until with only about three minutes, they and a few points. They started freeze the ball, and the Rens had a hard time getting it away from them with the remaining minutes going right.

Lincoln Tops Varsity "S" in Close Clash
The adage that "youth must be served" seemed to assert itself in an interesting basketball game at Duquesne Garden Monday night, when the ambitious young Lincoln Uni-lion quincher defeated the crack Varsity team, Young and Betts, ex-Leonard guards, in the lineup. The lion-hearted players could not grasp the 23 to 21 victory in the last few moments of the game.

But Howard Came Through to Win Against Lincoln Here
Howard University took a crucial and most exciting game from Lincoln last Friday night. Both teams played in the same terms throughout the entire regulation period, ending in a score of 26-26.
The first extra session of five minutes was soociless, leaving the teams in a tie. The game "Mickey" Syphax, subforward, scored three goals, to carry the Bisons to a glorious victory of 32-26. The game unquestionably decided the Bisons having lost only one game in its entire C. I. A. A. series of ten games and that was a game with Lincoln University, played at Howell. The game closed out a victory with a marathon of a single point, the score being 20-21.
A second game between Howard and Lincoln University, won and won by Lincoln University, was not an official C. I. A. A. game, as the rules of the association require home-and-home games of competing teams, extra games, and extra games played under the auspices of the Howard Alumni Association, while the game in New York last Friday night was Lincoln's response for the game played at Howard.
Howard's C. I. A. A. schedule and scores follow:

Coach Burr, in winning the C. I. A. A. champion, gives a deserved reward and his success is having great effect in the restoration of the old Howard spirit on the hill.

Anselm to Give Former Champion a Chance Friday
Frankie Kid Anselm, bantamweight champion of the National Guard, will have a chance to even an old score, and his challenger, Fred Monte, exceeds that in the rematch to regain lost honors when they meet in the feature 12-round bout at the 106th Infantry Armory on Friday night. Anselm recalls that Monte Monte was the first to win when Anselm wanted a show at the crown worn by Monte. He predicts he will hand the South Brooklynite a pasting that he will never forget. Charley Carneski returns to the 106th in a tie over the eight-round route with Carl Cavelli of Canton, Ohio.
Frankie Johanes, who won his last 12 starts, will be put to the acid test by the former champion in a battle. Johanes is a puncher, and his adversary is the type of fighter that will take a punch to land one. Jack Diamond, of South Brooklyn, or John B. Bass, of Charley Carneski, or Ridgewood will slug it out with Jimmy Luchini in the opening six.

MOORE AGAIN
BREAKS RECORD
Brooklynite Showed His Heels to Opponent in Harriers' Annual Run
Gus Moore, national A. A. U, cross country champion, plucked his way over four and three-quarter miles of pavement to win the annual road run under the auspices of the Brooklyn Harriers on Saturday afternoon. The adverse weather conditions acted as inspiration instead of an obstacle to Moore, and the distance runner covered the distance in 25.03 2-5, shattering the old course record by 43 3-5 seconds. The old mark was established by Allie Mack, of the Brooklyn Harriers, last year.
Moore, who received his early training at Boys' High School, was in rare form, appreciating the opportunity to run outdoor—a successful season on the boards. At the very start he dashed into the leadership of the pack of 22 and maintained a fast clip for two miles. When Moore passed the two-mile mark only Lew Lea, a Brooklyn Harriers, remained in the

Leading Athletes in Blue Ribbon Meet
U.S.L.T.A. Kulture
BY B. M. CLARKE
THE belated decision of the United States Baseball Tennis Association to suspend and promote open tennis tournaments in which amateurs and professionals may face each other across the net for love, or for competition. The national controversy between that body and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. It will be remembered that the lonely U. S. L. T. A. in a we-shouldered need to permit the youngsters, Reginald Wear of the College of the City of New York and of the Ideal Tennis Club of Harlem, and Gerald L. Wear of the School to play in the junior national indoor tennis tournament held recently at the Seventh Regiment Army, New York City, solely because it would not be able to "walk with kings" and "keep the common touch."
The N. A. A. C. P. in its usually fearless and brilliant manner establishes that it is "superior" people and proved in a weak and stupid organization. In this, all people of culture, white and black alike unanimously concur that the facts in the case agreed that the U. S. L. T. A. had literally lost its head; that its behavior was out of step with the American sense of justice and fair play.
Perhaps the U. S. L. T. A. has a perfect right to say who should play to be a strictly private organization, but when it holds an open tournament and declares a national title to another matter, that of course, is another matter.
The growing indifference with which the Negro is daily treated by the selfish spirit this same day, is not being based on a stigma on the characters of all far-minded people everywhere—if a certain line of reasoning is to be taken seriously. That he has no right to a role of the nation is rank humidity. That he is present and not absent is dangerous reasoning. That he has no rights which others do not have. That he has no place in the national life is against the facts. The law of the impenetrability of matter bears this line of argument and the law of the impenetrability cannot occupy the same space at the same time. It is the deliberate disregard of this law by a certain class of people that causes discord between the Negro and the white pro must be admitted, and his rights respected, for his positively IS. Whatever may be its feelings in this situation, it still shows a lack of cunning and wisdom in barring the youngsters on such silly grounds. This is not only an injustice to Weir and Norman, but a moral slight to the Negro race in general.
Indeed the accident of birth and of color is no disgrace so long as men carry themselves in such a way as to have a high regard for the laws of God, and of man. If the contrary were true, and the many were equally guilty with the few for the numerosity of the Caucasian race, the entire Caucasian race should bow its head in shame whenever another race refers to such stars as Benedict Arnold, Gerald Chapman, Ruth Snyder and Judd Gray, and a host of others of the same race. Nevertheless, the Caucasian race, like all other races, can justly boast of men and women of irreproachable character. Men and women whose color and courage and truth and intelligence stand out in this selfish world like a mountain beside a hill. Such persons are quick to render to Caesar the things that are Caasars. They cannot be defiled by mere contact in athletic competition with persons who are law-abiding and well-behaved. That other forces must obey the laws of effect, they are overly aggressive.
Those whose lives are influenced by truth and honesty and virtue and other like qualities know of no fear and admit of no defeat. To them they are not afraid of all these all tests, and even Although at times they be twisted and painted and thereby made to resemble something other than what they are, yet, in the years they remain what they had been at the beginning themselves to that effect. Moreover, we very often succeed in bending a limb of a given tree, but watch how that limb springs back to its place and let it go. Let the tree be who will, but culture is in itself, a glorious possession. It is men from the depths to the hemlins, and extends their breadth of cognition to infinity. But mere possessions of no avail, is not enough; its exercise is extremely important, necessary accompaniment, and women who can truly lay claim to this noble quality call others by the banks they merit, and respect the body of the most humble. Everybody is more "gorge" to them, since they realize that Harry is a wonderful personality.
He must be a rather weak person
one who is unaware of his
sensibility in his position in the world
of men and animals, and
ashamed to be seen in the company
of those whose only offence is obed-
ience, the dictates of nature, that
intrinsic evil.
Color should not be a serious disqui-
salization in any given tournament
where a national title is at
at it. It is hoped, therefore, that
the U.S. has already seen its
hindeous blindness will make
hare to mend its ways.
That the advanced warning as evinced in the distasteful ruling warrior and Norman paved the way for the late decision of the U. S. L. T. A. to appoint tournaments in which amateurs and professionals may at last play each other, to the utter exasperation of the Negro, there is absolutely no chance, however, to not be by the outcome should such outward Negro players as Edgar G. Bannan the carefree child of color; Tally Jones the Eyre Satch, Ted Thompson the Lincoln, James Drs. Dr. E. D. Downey, like forward their entry to the competition in charge of such a tournament, would the U. S. L. T. A. deny them the play? That indeed be an unlawful way of saying that careers are neither professional, so far as friends is com

Splendid Fight Up to Sixth Round, When White Boy Jumped Into Blow
No matter from whence they come and no matter how good they are hard luck seems to stalk the colored fighter at Madison Square Garden when he is on the road to command the fight to fight for the championship in the various classes. Larry Johnson of Chicago is no exception to the rule and the boy from the West is today bemoaning a fate which sent a well directed blow into the Miaxe Rosenbloom at the Garden last season, which would have changed considerably the aspect of the entire light-heavyweight division did Rosenbloom not contribute to the inglorious end of the fight.
The consensus of opinion shows that it was a splendid battle while it lasted. It was a battle in which Larry Johnson had every reason to look forward to victory, for on more than one occasion he found the white boy with rapper-like precision his blow went to the intended spot.
Three or four times Johnson rocked Rosenbloom and made the white boy retreat with a greater and deeper show of the other fighters, shown for any of the other fighters flecking with his open gloves. There can be no question of the blow which put a stop to hostilities in the sixth round being a foul, but it was one of the few times it happened from time to time and a thing over which few men have any control.
Sensing an opening in the twinkling of an eye Johnson sent the blow winging on its way to Rosenbiom's mid-section, but in that same twinkling of an eye the white boy had jumped in the air to evade the blow which went with such lightning-like speed there was no staying it and the result was that it landed where the rules of the Marquis of Queensbury says fair blows never land. The result was most unsatisfactory, but the fight Johnson put up did not lose him any friends and he will continue to enjoy consideration at the hands of the matchmakers.
In the meantime Rosenbiom will now look forward to meeting Slattery. Masz will not under any circumstances meet the Buffalonian on the latter's own stamping grounds and it is dollars to doughnuts that the Boxing Commission, in the face of the many shafts of ridicule being hurled its way, will rule that Max is right in demanding that the battle be thrown on neutral ground. Larry Johnson can still draw with many of the aspiring light heaves around and he should be given the chance against them.

If Mickey Will Condescend to Meet Harry
**Smith**
Jess McMahon, famous fist entrepreneur who will conduct boxing at Ebbets Field this summer, stands next to the Walker, middleweight champion of the WBC, for a bout with Harkem, Smith, colored challenger from Harkem, he announced late last week.
Smith later named the "New Billy Franklin" of the Harkem, goes against Billy Franklin, the Armstrong champion, in the feature ten-round bout of an all-star program at the Broadway Arena tonight. Tuesday night, knocked out Osk Till of Rochester, knocked out Oak Till of the Olympia Boxing Club in Harkem a week ago Saturday, climaxing a sensational winning streak which has extended to straight victories. 27 K. O. 6 decision in maintaining his undefeated record against Till. Harry performed a feat that even leading heavyweights have been uninterested in, a sparing partner for Gen Tunnell and the ex-ruler of the heavyweights picked him as a future champion.
Dave Brown, manager of Smith, wants the wide, wide world to know middleweight contenders for a with his charge, if they can only be dragged into the same ring.
In the event that Walker and the rest cannot be lured into matches with Smith, Harry may turn his hand to the lightweight championship. He is confident of his ability to beat either Jimmy Slattery, Maxie Rosenbloom or Larry Johnson. He wins six rounds, Martin Oraz of Spain books up with Eddie Elkins of Harlem.

JERSEY RATES TENNIS PLAYERS
Worde and Miss Marcellus
New Jersey's Leading
Tennis Players
NEWARK, N. J., March 10—Solomon (Happy) Worde of Elizabeth, N. J., once more heads the New Jersey tennis players, according to the ratings for the year 1923 released this week by the New Jersey Tennis Association, Inc. This marks the fourth time that the Elizabeth youngster has been rated at No. 1 position in Jersey, having captured these laurels previously in 1923, 1925 and 1927; and at no time has Worde been rated lower than his last year's place at No. 4.
Miss Elveta Marcellus of Plainfield, N. J. is again the ranking woman player in the same place she held previously in 1923, 1925, 1927 and 1928. Some of the more important changes in this year's ratings are. Billy Granger, who was out of play in 1928, returns to his 1927 rating as No. 2, so forcing Lester Granger and Henry Williams down one place each, to third place. The fifth place goes to George Hill of Montclair, who dropped from No. 1 of last year. William Willis, the genial host of the Shady Rest Council Craig, who played last in 1926 as junior, crowds into the seventh position. W. Randolph Granger and Okan McWilson still remain in the top three, ninth respectively, with Lorraine Clarke in tenth place.
The Woman's Singles also show some changes in the select circle (the Trenton, a newcomer in the game and first year of tournament play grabs the second place. Mrs. Bertha is No. 3. one place lower than last year. Miss Florence Holcombe's consistent game, brought her fourth place, with Mrs. I. Davis of Elizabethtown's year's absence, in the fifth position.
The splitting up of the Worde brothers as a doubles team caused Solomon to pair with William Willis and Kenneth teamed up with Clinton Henry to make the third position. The Granger brothers, W. Randolph and Lester, were given the runner-up honors. The honor place in the mixed doubles again falls to Miss Marcellus and Mr. Willis, who after two years in the doubles again and were successful in regaining the first place, which they had held on three occasions previously. The women's doubles provided the first pairing in Beatrice Vandervere and Mrs. Imo Brice; their team work brought them the coveted No. 1 position. Herman Marrow won his last junior rating as the No. 1 doubles player. The ratings as issued by the New Jersey Tennis Association, Inc., are:
Pickens Says:-
OANP.
(For The Associated Negro Press.)
A HEAVYWEIGHT niger fight recently let me in on the whole conspiracy from the West. He had been sent for to come to New York City and "fight" with the European gent whom they were grooming for championship honors, and caught words, catchwords, as a huge fighting demon.
"I am in the fight racket," said this colored gentleman of the ring, who had just done his turn with the hat, and who you are, and I can afford to tell you the truth about it."
Then he explained in great detail: That an honest-to-government fight is not a any big place now; that such a fight is big money"; that big business has taken over the promotion of fighting, not to determine "the best man," but to determine "the man who has some attractive feature, like a big hulk of a body and a queer name and a woman," and push him forward until they have a chance for a million-dollar gate.
And even the million-dollar gate fight may be "fixed." It is a poor innocent; who will bet on a big-money which way to bet—unless he is in facket," said my prize-fighter fellow traveler.
Then he told how he had summoned out of the West to help push on the prominence of this new, big man before he entered the ring, and how to make sure of his good behavior, he was to receive $2,000 more after the fight—if the right man won—which was the other man.
"They wouldn't let me shoot," he said to receive $2,000 more them to judge the other fellow the winner, even on points." Then he showed me the money, in actual cash—bills of $500 and $100 denominations, sticking in his shirt pocket, and money than I had seen anywhere in my life outside of a bank."
But after the fight was over and the protege of the big money interests had been allowed to win on the ground, he tried to cheat this black fighter from the West out of his extra $2,000. But he was smart; he had kept the letters which they had written him in West, making the arrangement, and he had sent them to the State Boxing Commission with those letters—and they came across. Then they had offered to buy back the letters.
He was smart again; he suddenly ran away and made the letters at home. But he had the letters with him when I met him in to Pullman car returning to the West. He knew that if he had those letters, he would have knew he had them, they would use one measure to get them. He may need them, too, for future use.
And why does this individual engage in such business? He explained, "I could not make money that I had to invest in, that a business now—a racket, back Dempsey was the last fighting champion—and I suspect him in the Philadelphia fight, but he made an honest to get back in Chicago. He fell in with Philadelphia, he had fallen out with them when the Chicago fight came on."
So in the future, it seems, "champions" are to be made in the same manner and for the same purpose. He shares a few hints, thousand acres of rubber trees at great care and cost, in Liberia: For future profits. No real sport can survive "big money."

Stalwart Brooklyn Divine in Ringing Reply to Critics of Recent Interview
Sermon Preached From His Pulpit Last Sunday Morning Won Acclaim of His Fastly Growing Flock
Before a representative audience of prominent men and women of both races, from every part of the borough, and many parts of Greater New York, when Buddy Nixon, the hero of the recent Brooklyn fire, was received into the fellowship of the Nazerene Congregational Church, the Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor preached Sunday morning on "The Persecution of the Church in Russia."
At the close of his sermon he repiled to recent criticisms of his course in his behavior to keep the colored community up to its best. Among other things, he said:
"During the last few days your pastor has been severely criticized. Richard Webster, a special writer of the Brooklyn Daily Times, called by appointment at the office of the church for an interview. We had a free and easy conversation on the local racial situation. I was surprised to find in last Saturday's paper a column and a half in which he quoted me freely. It is a full and comprehensive article intended to be of service to our people.

At the close of his sermon he rep in his endeavor to keep the colored co things, he said:
"During the last few days your Richard Webb a special writer of the pointment at the office of the church and easy conversation on the local ra in last Saturday's paper a column and it is a full and comprehensive article
"Unfriendly critics within race, however, seized upon a single sentence, took it out of its setting, extorted and exploited it. Every one who has been a worker you can take any piece of writing, distort a single sentence and put on it a contrary meaning. By this means you can prove from the Bible there is no God. On the basis of this unfair prosecution, the unfair charges are insinuated against me.
"One is that I am an enemy of my race. In reply to this charge I point to a record of public service of 35 years, and defy any man to place his finger upon one act or utterance that is disloyal to my people. On the contrary I am not disloyal to the Union and beyond the seas as a champion of the rights of my people.
"Another is that I am against the working people. In reply to this charge I would say that I am a working person. I am not working people. My father was a carpen' ; and my mother a cook. Scarcely a day passes that we do not seek jobs in our church office for working people. Christ himself was a worker, and I like to touch the hand of man that has coms on it like those of Christ.
"Another false charge is that I am against the newcomers of our race in our community. In reply to this, I am against it. In reply to this, I could hardly be against myself. On the other hand, I have the highest regard for those who are coming into our midst. There are no better members of our community. Note how many of them have been promoted to official position in our church. As a matter of fact some of you have almost been made jealous of the newcomers of our continent. And we are glad to welcome to our church today Buddy Nixon, the hero, who saved over forty people alive recently in a great fire in New England. He is a newcomer from New England.
"Another false charge is that I have hold up my people to scorn as a race. In India, I would say that I have held on to platforms in America, that the colored race has the cleanest record of any race in history. The Jewish race gave me the Nero, the Saxon race its Benedict Arnold, but show me please one great black criminal in history. He does not have the temperament time and again, and one has able to refute the fact that the blackest hand in nature is the whitest hand in history.
What, then, have I been trying to do with the tempest pot. It is the lot of public men to be misquoted and misinterpreted. Of course, I did not say that my people were the worst Mr. Webster affirms and will state in the Times. I was warding off a condition that would make them such. Couture was not fighting my people, I was only fighting for them, and will do so until I die.
"I believe that it is the plan of God to put a church in very community on earth, and that it is His plan for each church to save its own community, and that it is the vine Plan for this church to save its immediate community. Instead of having an ambulance at the bottom of the precipice to pick up the wounded. I believe in building a fence I am endeavoring to put my church in such a position that it can be a conserving force in the community. I see the secret designs of the underworld plotting to desecrate the community. I see if the finest and cleanest community of our people anywhere in the world.
"To this end I am appealing to the better element of both races to cooperate in transforming the basal of this country into a better place. A matter of fact, the vice of this city is manned chiefly by whites, and many of our people are used as tools. In the past we have been asked the question this was expressly asked. This organized movement for vice presuons upon the young, the unsuspecting and the immature. It is the work of heaven to cleanse this environment and make it helpful and stimulating for our youth. Any opposition to this movement would put my opposition to the side of the forces of the underworld.
"This appeal has brought forth five responses from men and women of all races, and not a single unworthy argument has been made. Our literature is open for inspection to all. He who runs may read. When this appeal has been fully realized, the heart of the Borough an institution of which the race will be proud throughout the country, and will stand to serve humanity long after present actors have gone to their rest.
"I entertain for each one of my critics the most kindly feeling, and not a single word of bitterness shall escape, and I judge no man's motives, I judge no man's motives, and none can justly fmown mine. That is a matter for Divine judgment, as we stand in the presence of God, and we are in a highland bare. However, I have set my face like a flint, and no amount of opposition shall cause me to vary one hair's breadth from the course of the community to the highest and best. I will fight no man, but I will fight the speakeasy, the evil resort. Sunday night cabaret, and kindred evils until I skate on the lee after them. This community must be preserved and handed down for our youth unimpaired. To this task I summon all the men without regard to race, order or man."

Emmett Scott to Address Need for Big Sisters Davis Post in May Stressed at Meeting Here
By GEORGE FRAZTER MILLER.
Pastor St. Augustine P. E. Church.
In response to a request for some observations on the pronouncements as the Rev. Dr. Henry Hugh Proctor was published, first in the Brooklyn Daily Times on Saturday, March and July, when he was the first and most early of the country, I avail myself of the privilege, and will say his article throughout was a most unfortunate utterance in that it was calculated to excite against the colored people of this community the setting of contempt and infusivity the existing and unknowing and repulsion which now exists in too great a degree for the insurance and maintenance of that cordiality and helpfulness which should keep in happy accord the various elements of the populace. It cannot believe Dr. Proctor's deliverance was the mostیلک people whom he had doubtless hurt; that would be to sink himself too low in the depths of degradation, but it is nevertheless extremely pathetic that a man should so far forget himself that, for the temporal gain he hopes to be a such an exposure to be besimches the reputation he criticates the opportunities of the very people whose champion he should be; whose advocacy should be his supreme and absorbing aim. It is most deplorable to think that, in the zeal to rather humour the building of his church, he should have been bewed the best interests of the people whom ostensibly he was essaying to help.
There are all grades of persons among all people: call them race, nation, or whatever designation one may elect; but in every group there runs a sentiment we call race pride or class pride. We can also identify and abiding interest do not select the most debased or vicious among themselves to parade before the world as
Brooklyn witnessed an unusually attractive affair at the Dunbun Center, 605 Herkimer street, on Saturday evening, 116, the only colored post of Kings County, held sway at an entertainment and dance, which was attended by a large and enthusiastic gathering. The veterans in their habiliments filled the room, and the music supplied by Heyward E. Slade and his Crooners contributed much to make the evening's affair a delightful one. The Post Commander, Bernard C. Fowler, in a statement dated that this affair was the first of a series to be held for the purpose of securing a home for the veterans, and that their primary object is to promote the well-being of the habilized veterans and for the widows and orphans of diseased soldiers.

Hero of Dept. Store Fire Wins Purse and Praise
John "Buddy" Nixon, twenty-year-old elevator operator in Ison's Department Store, 474 Fulton street, has been awarded a purse of $100 in gold, a letter of praise from Governor Roosevelt and the commendation of Miss Francis Perkins, Commissoner of Labor; Fire Commissioner Dorman, Richard J. Cullen, chairman of the Industrial Board, and Walter Perkins, of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce when fire ravaged Ison's Feb. 17.
It was Nixon who kept the elevators running in the store when the flames were discovered and brought the scores of shoppers and women omitted from the store's street. His words of reassurance and his own calmness did much to avert a panic, it was stated when the award was made. Commissioner Perkins said in presenting the award we were needed for fire regulations for stores, as they present a greater hazard than factories.
the most representative element of their clan or class, but Dr. Proctor, to reveal his powers of edification and the power of persuasion, powerful that he might demonstrate those powers and save the whites of our community from the noxious contacts of colored people, pictured them as criminal and diseased, and themselves as instrumental and instrumental instrumentality through which the people from whom he hopes to reap his harvest may turn this unwholesomeness and pestilential condition into a source of plague or insidious attacks of our avowed enemies are inconsiderate for effecting mischief as compared with the extensive damage that comes from the misguided or pernicious snatches of our hands from a hand within our own ranks.
Whether or not not she were the specific design of Dr. Proctor, culpability for this wrong is by no means mitigated, for a man is in duty bound to think, and a man of intelligence, in the position of leadership among us, is not obliged to behave in proprieties in the situation; this was clearly a prostitution of the race's credit and honor to unholly gain. Not specifically meant? No. of course not, but the market it is not specifically for the purpose of estranging our money, but we are quite resigned to the consequences for the sake of the acquisition of the dear commodities upon which our hearts are set, and upon whom we are to have social, economic, moral, or spiritual integrity to the baseness of personal favors and selfish adveancement, it is time to hang our heads in deep hungery, and to voice our bordering on despair: "May the Lord have mercy on our souls!"

Committee From Holy Trinity Church Issues Statement on Rev. Proctor's Views
Committee From Holy Trinity Church Issues Statement on Rev. Proctor's Views
A committee selected from the Holy Trinity Baptist Church on Sunday morning, March 2, composed A. Boswell, M. MissJeanette A. Knight, secretary of the National Afro-Protective League, Courtney H. Cooley, B. Cooper, and A. A. president of the local branch N. A. C. P. stated its views on Dr. Proctor's article in the following statement to The Amsterdam News: "A race. Negroes are a harboring group, are harboring any other race, and when a member of that race openly seeks to expose a vulnerable point in its position in the community, other members to voice emphatically his strong, unanimous disapproval.
"It is without doubt an expression which will have a more destructive effect upon the Negroes' progress in the states, their allies, even hurted at the race by the Vardaman or a Heflin. The white North understands that the attitude of the white South is. In the main unfriendly to Negro freedom of opportunity and progress; and these circumstances make from such persons often defeat their own purpose and win thousands of friends for the Negroes' cause. But, coming from one of its own number, such statements as Dr. Proctor's, even from the colorated and damaging to the colored race in Brooklyn and elsewhere.
"It is most un-Christian like for one to taint his own group with atrocities for favor among the powerful and the oppressed," the article, one who is well versed with conditions in Brooklyn can discern that his statements have been unduly exaggerated. For instance he states that the people of Brooklyn into the homes of white persons who employ them. This would immediately imply that colored domestic workers are immune to crime, while those of other races are immune from such conditions. Such a statement has a tendency to change the spirit of tolerance on the ground that prejudice toward their colored servants, and to destroy that spirit of confidence that has existed between the races in the past. The ultimate result might be to deprive many worthy colored servants of their jobs through mistrust and fear of disease and other complications of health. "No Catholic priest would unduly address himself to exposing the vices of the Catholic people of his own

The Rev. HENRY HUGH PROCTOR, Pastor Nazarene Congregational Church, Brooklyn, will be asked to meet thousands of colored citizens at KISMET TEMPLE, Herkimer St. near Nostrand Ave. (one block from Fulton St.), on TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 18, 1930, at 8 o'clock sharp, and tell WHY he has slandered the colored people of Brooklyn. Ministers of all denominations, bishop, lawyers and doctors will voice their disapproval of Rev. Proctor's vicious attack in his statement to the white press, "The colored folk go into white homes as domestic servants. And they carry THEIR disease and crime with them." And why the influx from Harlem and the West Indies has a bad effect on the white population of Brooklyn.
Rev. Proctor's utterance is more damaging than that of Rev. Blackshear, or the most bitter enemies of the Southland. No doubt the Rev. Proctor will attempt to apologize. Murderers facing the electric chair apologize, but the victim is dead; the dealer of a vicious blow apologizes, but the wound is there; the highway robber might be caught, and apologizes, but the money, etc., is gone. Our race is seriously injured. Thousands of colored women who are compelled to work in white homes for a livelihood have been wounded, and our children who go to school are apt to be damaged by Rev. Proctor's vicious attack.

nationality or religious faith; nor would any Rabbi give pitiless publicity to the shortcomings of persons of the Jewish community, or honorable clergyman of the white Protestant faith seek to emphasize the dark side of the life of their parishioners. Should he need a question as to whether Dr. Proctor's remarks were prompted by sheree motives when he holds up before the citizenry of Brooklyn, the bugaboo of impending heavy infliction of Negroes from Harlem and the West Indies as though crime were peculiar attributes of Negro migrants. It would seem that in his effort to enlist the sympathy of white philanthropy in the cause of contributing to his church he has pursued a polio-erotization in order to accomplish his mission, it is difficult to see how the establishment of a cabaret for Negroes would have any more baneful effect upon the community in general than do those we have which are operated by whites.
"If a survey were made and the true facts ascertained concerning the city of Brooklyn, it would be difficult to reach the conclusion that Dr. Proctor should be considered in any sense spokesman for the Negro in Brooklyn. He is also one of other churches in Brooklyn, each of whose memberships exceed that of the Nazarene Congregational Church in New York. Dr. Proctor is pastor at the area and still other factors in church statistics from which one might conclude that Dr. Proctor is more a favorite among whites than among his own people."

The Varrick Christian Endeavor Society presented a very unique program at Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church, 41 Bridge Street, last summer. The dresses were delivered by George Saunders, vice-president of the Lyceum of Ebennet Wesleyan Methodist Church, and Wesley MacD. Holt's students' Literary and Debating League. Mr. Saunders' address on "Education" was very instructive and was handled in a capable manner. Mr. Saunders who delivered the principal address spoke on "The Glory of a Vision."
Said he: "Some hundreds of years ago some people came to this country who were called the Pilgrim Fathers. They came to this country because they were dissatisfied with that part of the world in which they lived before they came here. Where they came," he continued, "they saw a great forest country—a country of wilderness, a vast wilderness. They were not discouraged, because they had before them a vision—a vision that, through their labors, their sacrifices and through their sufferings they would be able to build up a mighty country for their protection and for the protection of their posterity." He went on to trace the growth of this country to the present time, and when he was through his pictured a similar vision for any oppressed group, any group that is dissatisfied with its condition." He closed by saying that the race, if it is to make a lasting impression, it would have to rid itself of that feeling of satisfaction and take on a pioneering spirit.
The program opened with a vocal solo, "Flee as a bird," Miss Clemie Willett, vocal solo, "There Is a Beautiful Land on High," Mrs. Lillian Galloway Stakeman; vocal solo, "Lift Thine Voice," Mrs. Lillian Galloway vocal solo, "Come Upon Me," John Grisham Mrs. Stakeman and Mr. Griffin were especially effective in their renditions. There were remarks by Rev. Willett, Mrs. Griffin, Mrs. Stakeman was arranged by Robert Raymond and the mistress of ceremonies was Miss Harriet Green. The officers were Miss Penetra Henderson, president; Miss Jessie Smallwood, secretary.
Long Island Housewives Can Grasp This Opportunity
Brooklyn housewives will have an opportunity of studying the values of their many food products when they learn about the annual Brooklyn Food Show and Housewives' position which was opened at the Thirteenth Regiment Armory, Summer and Jefferson avenues, on Monday evening.
This armory, which is said to possess the largest floor space area of any hall in Brooklyn, presents a picture of a real modern market. It has been transformed into artistically designed kitchen and paragon of excellence, as for instance the Kellogg Co. of Battle Creek, with its done top, and the Yuban, with its octagonal base and square top. The products there are many national firms represented and an innovation is cooking lessons, lectures and lessons for the housewife in decorations of the home the best results may be achieved in the use of certain cooking apparatus.
That Brooklyn is the logical place for a food show of this kind it is easy to see. Brooklyn is the city's official guide, nearly 5,500 freight cars arrive here daily, not mentioning the many motor trucks and parts in making Brooklyn the clearing house for food stuffs. It is expected that many will seize the opportunity to demonstrate and demonstrations which would enable them to prepare more tasty and palatable dishes and teach them how to cook. They could be obtained at a minimum cost. These shows open from 1:30 to 5:30 and from 7:30 to 10:30 p. m. plans for a banquet to be given the former president on March 31.
Last Tuesday evening Hempstead Lodge No. 5722, G. U. of O. held a public service in memory of the founder of the order, Peter Olge. The program was in charge of Rev. M. L. Heyne of Hempstead, who delivered an enquent resume of the founder of Odd Fellows in America. Attorney Moxey A. Riley of Ruth Presbyterian Church in the "Value of Leadership." H. Hineney, one of the charter members of the lodge, told of the early history of the organization. Susan Graham represented the members of Ruth in delivering a few timely remarks. At the conclusion of the program a delightful repast was served.

Bishop Barrow, Back From Canada Calls on Ministers for United Leadership
Refuses to Comment at Length on Proctor Interview, but Considers It Unethical to Denounce Ministerial Brother
"Worst in the spirit of service is the only true worship," Archbishop Reginald Grant Barrow, of New York, declared in an address on "Co-operation, the Need of Today," at a meeting in the Church of the Messiah, Sherbrooke and Simpson streets, last week at Montreal, Canada.
The meeting was held under the auspices of the Montreal assembly of the Bahais. The gathering was also addressed by Alfred Martin of the Society of Ethnic Culture, New York, on the subject of "Generalia and Haifa," Meccas of the Modern World. "Sutherland Maxwell was in the church," Mr. Maxwell explained that the purpose of the conference was to promote interracial and interreligious amity. It was with that object that Mr. Martin and Archbishop Barrow had been invited to address the meeting. Mr. Martin was one of the speakers at the World Conference on Religions at the General and Archbishop Barrow occupies the pulpit of the African Orthodox Church here.
Mr. Martin is in a address traced work of the League of Nations and drew attention to the way that it had trumped in spite of all obstacles.
At the previous meeting a resolution was passed to the effect that the conference which had sponsored the conference, namely, Dr. Gifford, Rabbi Stern and George Mooney, of the Y. M. C. A., should co-operate with other leaders of the community who were unable to attend the meeting last

Bishop Barrow, upon his return to Brooklyn last week, when seen by a representative of the Amsterdam church, that it was his personal opinion that it would keep for him to discuss the matter. Reverend Proctor's article reproduced in the columns of this paper last week. Bishop Barrow is also of the Amsterdam church, for members of the cloth to publicly each other as it is his belief that the work in the church is not yet of that strength where clergymen can readily set upon and attempt to pull down the cloth, but no other how small it may be in their various fields of endeavor. "From a point of patriotism and loyalty inspired so well in the majority government, remarkable words of Stephen Decatur, the historian of theorial pages of some of our leading publications," said the bishop. "I am with my clerical brother, right or wrong. I am with him when he is wrong. I am with him when he is wrong that I may take to him right. To my mind, the young and learned bishop of the African Church, "it is a sulple policy whether political, ecclesiastical or social to publicify denounce each other."

Wetmore Launches U. S. Lobby Drive
Plan to Watch Interests of Negro at Capital Gains Impetus
Advocating the establishment of a lobby at Washington to watch all proposed legislation affecting Negroes. Attorney J. Douglas Wetmore offered his check for $12 as payment of one year's dues, at the rate of a dollar a month, at the banquet of common interests sponsored by the Ray Potter Waller Civic Association Thursday evening at the St. Luke's dining room.
Mr. Wetmore said Congressman DePriest of Chicago had advocated the idea in a speech here. The attorney declared that he wished to give the movement impetus by calling for $1 per month from public spirited citizens.
The idea drew much enthusiasm and the Ray Potter Waller organization voted to immediately set about to bring the idea into actuality.
Captain Charles O. Steadman was master of ceremonies. The speakers included Charles Middleton, representing the Harlem Community Council; Mrs. Angelaina Blocker of the Harlem Housewives' League; Mrs. Clara B. Bruce, Attorney William T. Andrews, Mrs. Bessye J. Bearden, Robert T. Bess of the Robert J. Bess Corporation; Assemblyman Francis E. Rivers, J. Doles of the Belstrat Laundry; Renzl B. Lemus and Dr. Ray Potter Waller. Swinton Lord was chairman of the arrangement committee. All of the speakers praised the idea of a community get-together dinner in which the thoughts of the various groups were aired to the best interest of the community in general.
Housing Situation Viewed as Serious
Welfare Bodies Ask for Support of Bills to Aid
The crisis facing Harlem tenants was declared to be serious by speakers at a mass meeting on housing and legislation Thursday evening at the Community Forum of Abbyssinian Baptist Church, 132 West 138th street. The meeting was sponsored by the warden of Appomattox Republican Club of Chicago Croley is chairman, in co-operation with other organizations interested in Harlem's problems.
Assemblym Lamar Perkins and Francis E. Rivers, who represent the Twenty-first and Nineteenth Districts, respectively, explained the need for support of their bills in the Assembly. The legislation offered by Mr. Perkins would allow a tenant to be granted a stay of six months by a Municipal Court justice in order to find new quarters after being dispossessed by his监护. He would keep landlords from collecting rent before making repairs and removing other violations placed upon the property by the Tenement House Department.
Speakers who urged support of the bills were C. B. Jenkins, William Battles, and W. A. Brown of the Harlem Tenants' League, Alderman John Clifford Hawkins, and Miss Helen Hanning, white, of the Community Council. Miss Hanning also asked for Harlem's citizens and organizations to push the bill pending in the legislature, which would provide state positions for the attorney. Aaron Smith, president of the forum; Mrs. Croull, chairman of the welfare body, made short talks in which they deplored high rents prevailing in Harlem. They also asserted that many of the houses are not cleaned by the landlords. The Rev. Horatio S. Hill, head of the Community House and social service activities of Abyssinian, declared that tenants and owners should hold a conference and attempt to settle their difficulties by presenting arguments both points to Mr. Hill said in a letter of a cooperative housing project and knew from experience that high rents were necessary for owners to realize a profit on their investments.
Interracial Gathering To Promote Fellowship
A program designed to promote friendship and understanding between the races will be staged tonight at the Church of All Nations, 9 Second avenue, by the Harlem League of the New York-Federation of Churches, the Fellowship of Reconciliation, the Community Church Race Relations group, and the New York Urban League.
The meeting tonight will consist of a series of stunts in which both racial groups will participate, under the direction of Miss Louise Parrot, the Chief Scout Executive, and the presentation of the players who mixed casts under the direction of Miss Gladys McDonald. The singing, Negro spirituals and dancing will also be features of the evening's entertainment.
According to James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the New York Urban League, the sole purpose of tonight's meeting is to promote amicable relations between the races. A similar dance, he said, was given at the league building three months ago. Is it the aim, Mr. Albert stated, to hold such social meetings between the races every three months.

Insurance Chief Lauds Employees
"The Negro, like the Jew, cannot afford to make mistakes or failures because he belongs to a persecuted race," Louis Bernstein, white, manager of the Brooklyn branch of the Commercial Casualty Insurance Company of Newark, told the Brooklyn agents of the company Thursday evening at a banquet given in his honor at Tabb's restaurant, 529 Lenox avenue. This banquet, which was held in the grill room, marked end of a four months' period since the first Negroes were employed as agents by this company, which is one of the oldest in the country.
"If a Negro or a Jew fails," said Mr. Bernstein, "this entire race must suffer the blame because of this persecution. This being the case, you cannot fail to make good, and succeeding in this form the doors of all the other insurance companies must follow suit by opening their doors to the Negro."
The company, Mr. Bernstein explained, was warned not to employ Negroes. Twenty-two are now employed by the organization and Mr. Bernstein said that they have proved themselves capable in every way. It is the intention of the organization, he said, to build up a large organization of professional insurance men in Harlem.
C. V. Henderson, Herbert Dean and Columbus Vann were presented to the group as the three men having written the most insurance for the company during a campaign which lasted for ten days preceding the banquet.
Other agents and officers of the firm attending the meeting were John E. Forde, Hartman Turner, Lee Wright, S. L. Stern, Richard James, Richard Ross, S. M. Bernstein, B. A. Rosenberg, Perley Harrison, Alex Jorling, Claude Eastwood and Leslie Parris.

C. M. A. Plans to Reopen Closed Grocery as Model
While the proprietors of the Williams and Kline, Inc., were preparing to appear next Monday in the Seventh District Municipal Court on a precept ordering them to show cause why they should not be forced to vacate the premises occupied by their grocery store at 2480 Seventh avenue, plans were announced yesterday for the reopening of the store as a model of the Harlem Colored Merchants' Association.
The store, one of two owned by Williams and Kline, and a member of the C.M.A. co-operative chain, was closed Friday because of financial difficulties. The order against the owners was secured for certain payments due Luisi de Santo, white.
Mr. Holsey, is secretary of the National Negro Business League and organizer of the local co-operatives, said the association would re-open the place as a demonstration grocery, showing the latest improvements in the business. He was confident that the setback was only temporary.

ATLANTA. March 10.—President Hoover regards the work of the Southern Commission on Interracial Co-operation as "A sane, simple and sensible plan," according to a recent letter addressed by the President to Dr. R. R. Moton, who is heading a national campaign for a fund of $1,360,000 to finance the Commission's work of the ensuing ten years. President Hoover's letter follows:
I have been greatly impressed by the constructive work of the Commission on Interracial Co-operation. The solution of all conflict is that men and women of good will shall search and find the areas where we can co-operate, and thus minimize differences. This is the sane, simple and sensible plan of the Commission. It is of real national importance. I trust it will have the widest support.

William Howard Taft
WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT had the easiest career of any American statesman. Born with every advantage of wealth and culture, he rolled smoothly along through life with hardly a break. He never had to fight for anything; every office he held was appointive except the Presidency, and even that was a gift from Theodore Roosevelt. When he broke with Roosevelt and had to depend on himself for re-election he suffered the greatest defeat in American politics.
THIS IS NOT SAID to disparage the man. With all his good luck he had abilities that would have won him a name, though not a great one. Many men with even greater advantages than Taft's have accomplished little or nothing. Taft was an able, conscientious, diligent worker and he had a personality that people could not help loving. His disposition was benevolent, his policies conservative and his methods easy-going. Nobody hated him, and that may be the reason he was not a great President. Most of the nation idolized Roosevelt, but the rest of it hated him savagely. He was all angles and Taft was all curves. No one could imagine Taft doing anything that would provoke the denunciation that greeted many of Roosevelt's actions. His amiability led him into the error of trying to please everybody, with the usual result. He was loved by more people than any other President, yet the people refused to re-elect him.
WHEN TAFT WAS PRESIDENT his attitude toward the Negro accorded with his policy in other matters: he wanted things to be smooth. He thought he might break the solid South if he ignored the Negro. One of his first statements after becoming President was that he would not appoint Negroes to office in any place where objections might be raised. As there would be some people to object no matter where a Negro was appointed, this amounted to ruling the Negro out. It was not that Taft hated the Negro; he was only taking the easiest way, as usual. He was too amiable to hate anybody. He was as willing as other Presidents to appoint Negroes, but not if it meant a fight. That was the difference between him and his friend Roosevelt, to whom fighting was bread and meat.
TAFT'S CAREER was unprecedented in two ways. First, he was the only man who had been both President and Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Secondly, he was the only man who ever held the Presidency without making a host of enemies.

A COLORED THEATRE ran vicious performances for a time, but fortunately the enterprise proved a failure and closed its doors. A colored Sunday cabaret is in operation not far from the church now. Soon, if the community does not take steps against them, there will be more of these cabarets, and then colored night clubs, blind tigers, speakeasies and all the rest of the evil night life. . . . The colored folk go into white homes as domestic servants. And they carry their disease and crime with them." SUCH REMARKS might be expected from the Rev. Mr. Blackshear. Coming from a prominent Negro clergyman of Brooklyn, they are astonishing. They were made by the Rev. Henry Hugh Proctor of the Nazarene Congregational Church in an interview published by the Brooklyn Times. This church is engaged in a drive to raise its mortgage and is making an energetic canvass of the white residents of Brooklyn as well as the colored.
THE REV. MR. PROCTOR'S argument may open the pockets of white people; the mortgage money will probably be raised. But is it worth the loss of self-respect to the race? It is a sad thing, one too often repeated in the history of the race, to see a Negro leader currying favor with the white race by denouncing his own. Why the persistent use of the word colored in assailing theatres, cabarets, night clubs and speakeasies? Are such things peculiar to the colored people? And what will be the effect of that astounding slur about colored servants carrying disease and crime into white homes? Neither Tom Heflin nor Cole Blease ever said a worse thing about the Negro. It may keep hundreds of Negroes out of jobs and cause other hundreds to lose theirs.

idealized in song and story ever since the World War. Motion pictures, novels and dramas have been written around them, extolling them as if they were Homeric heroes or romantic knights-errant. They have been held before the public as the aristocrats of the army and navy, the most heroic type of young Americans. To read the plays and books and see the movies about them, one would think that they alone won the World War and the rest of the army had nothing to do with it.
WHAT ARE THE FACTS ABOUT THEM? Ask the Haitians about the drunken brutes who riddle their monuments and butcher defenseless peasants. Ask the people of little Nicaragua who bombed their helpless villages, killing women and children without compunction. Ask the people of any Latin-American country where the marines have been quartered, or the people of the southern Pacific islands.
ASK HOW the marines are recruited. Do they come from high class American stock? Investigators in Haiti have recorded the fact that most of the marines are ignorant roughnecks from the South, who think that rifles were put in their hands to terrorize everybody blacker than themselves. They have hurt the prestige of the United States throughout Latin-America. The culture of Haiti, China or any country they occupy means nothing to them; they are too ignorant to appreciate it. With all the glorifying of the marines it is high time somebody debunked them.

AKCHIBALD H. GRIMKE was a Puritan in the strictest meaning of the term. The Northern philanthropists, in the early years immediately following emancipation, planted schools and colleges for the newly freed slaves, based on the rigid canons of Cotton Matthew and Jonathan Edwards. They aimed to graft Puritan principles upon the tropical nature of the African.
At first there was some semblance of success. The very first crop of Negro graduates manifested the moral austerity of the New Englander at his best. But following the law of electricity, the hard work of mergers so long as it was kept in those contacts and connection with the inducing influence. The spiritual and moral earnestness of the early graduates of Lincoln, Fisk, Atlanta and Howard, compared with that of the present day output, seems less like a comparison than a contrast. In the Grimke brothers—Archibale and Frank—the strenuous moral bravery of a founder a fortified a field of Furquog extraction, they were endowed with native stamina out of which deep conviction and moral courage grow. The rigid Presbyterian discipline of the founders of Lincoln University found in the Grimke brothers the prepared soil in which their seed grew to abundant fruition.
After finishing Lincoln, Frank to pro
Who
IN Africa there are two powers now struggling for supremacy—France and England. There can be little doubt as to which one will eventually win.
Let us consider their respective methods of dealing with the natives, who are progressing with astonishing rapidity.
England, proud and haughty, looks down on the blacks with that race prejudice that so-called Anglo-Saxons love to boast of; France, on the other hand, treats them as humiliated and Frenchmen out of them. The result at present is that the aspiring and the educated natives love France, while those in the British colonies are at all times in a state of smouldering discontent. Between the two nations is very closely stated by 'sie M. Buell in his very able work. "The Native Problem in Africa," though it would, appear that Mr. Buell inclines to the English method of throwing the educated native back into the ranks of the native ones, instead of taking him in socially as do the French.
"The Englishman," says Buell, "believes in the cultural superiority of things English just as much as the Frenchman believes in the cultural superiority of things French. The Englishman, however, believes that his superiority is so innate that it cannot possibly be aborted by peoples of other races. Consequently, the English in Africa, at least, have not attempted to force their institutions upon the native peoples as have the French; they have not fraternized nor mingled

"The chief end of the French educational system in Africa has been to teach the native French so that they will 'think' like Frenchmen and be able to acquire the fruits of French science and literature. The educational system has preached racial equality, but above is not the influx of West Uncle Toms.

S MARINES have been story ever since the World
early manifested itself. He was among the first Negroes to rebel against the apostasy of the Republican party. He stood out prominently among the young reformers of the time, and came to the notice of Grover Cleveland who appointed him consul to Santo Domingo, where he served with credit and honor to both countries and both races concerned. By thrift and economy, characteristic of training and tuition, he laid up a moderate competency, which enabled him to live the cultural life of a gentleman for the remainder of his days. His tastes were simple and inexpensive. He practised the philosophy of plain living and high thinking. He literally lived the life of a soaker and gentleman. His interest in the literary and cultural environment among work of thought and taste.
Archibald Grimke spent the last thirty-five years of his life in the home of his brother, where father, brother and daughter formed a beautiful household united by common tie, not merely of blood, but of devotion to righteousness and high ideals. During his long residence in Washington, he devoted his active life to agitation for the political and civil rights of the Negro race. He not only served without money and without price, but contributed liberally out of his moderate means to promote the cause to which he devoted his best endeavors. As local chairman of the National Association for the Advancement of People, he was a leader that cause not only his duty, but his business. He was a ridicule among
all it has preached gratitude and respect for the French State.
"On the contrary, the British have left educational work to the missionary; the native regards the missionary as a defender against the government. There is no such territory where mission education is virtually prohibited in favor at a state educational policy."
Buell goes on to say that once the native absorbs French culture and becomes a citizen by naturalization, he enters into full and social life and "acquires a social status of equality with the European in a territory which an educated native cannot acquire in British territory."
The French teach the native that he has become an integral part of the French spirit. In December, 1926, M. Carde, the Governor-General of French West Africa, declared that as a result of conscription, "native individualism is being rapidly transformed, the races are the ideas and institutions of the population are being blended by progress."
"There is no color bar in the French colonies. Frenchmen not only have native mistresses, but they have native wives. They acknowledge sons born to native women out of wedlock, take them into their homes, and lend them to France to be educated.
"White and black men eat at the same table and argue with each other in the same council hall. A European in Senegal has difficulty in securing a seat in a first-class railway carriage on the train from Dakar to St. Louis because they are monopolized by dusky Oulofs, their hometowns, their bundles and their wives.
"The visitors to the market of Dagar will see European women selling fish to natives; if he enters a restaurant or store, he will see European women waiting on natives and Europeans alike. Both the French and the Belgian colonies have imported a large number of artisans and unskilled European labor side by side with the blacks in the interior. British territory is performed by Indians or natives. French women work along with their husbands in stores to a much greater extent

JOHN BROWN MEMORIAL
George S. Schuyler Urges Support of Benefit Sponsored by Association for Monument Funds.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam Newa Dear Sir:
On March 14 the Frederick Douglass Chapter of the John Brown Memorial Association, Inc., is staging a revue, boxing exhibition and dance at the Rockland Palace to help raise sufficient money to build a monument to John Brown. Over $4,000 has already been raised.
It seems to me that every lover of freedom in this locality ought to attend the affair and help along the good work. Such an act is almost a duty.
Brown is a most worthy effort at deserves the financial and spiritual support of all those Negroes we are or pretend to be libertarian. It certainly ought not be a hasty way to extend this benefit or sidering the elaborate program offered.

the radicals, but his radicalism was always tempered with a fine sense of values and a discriminating intelligence. It is only the gentleman and the scholar who can be a radical and an agitator without being a nuisance.
Mr. Grimke was born in 1849, and died in Washington at the ripe age of eighty years. During his last few years he lingered in the lengthening shadow of death, but he bore it all with the resignation and calm as becomes a man of his culture. He died as he lived, devoted to the cause of human rights. The loyal members of the N. A. A. G. P. bore his remains to their last resting place.
Archibald H. Grimke was radical, even revolutionary in thought and opinion, but utterly conservative in morals. He depended radically from Lincoln's character of the early years of Lincoln, but remained true to her moral teaching to the end. His life was characterized by purity and sterling integrity.
He leaves behind him most valuable lessons for the young college men of this day and generation. The present day intelligentsia finds itself distraught between conflicting influences and tendencies. The sanctions of religion are breaking down. Obedience to authority, of God or man, no longer furnishes a light to the feet nor a lamp to the pathway. Liberality of thought is prone to lead to laxity of conduct. Devotion to human rights and moral values is giving way to material allurements. But none of these things moved Archibald Grimke.
than do English women in British territory.
"The willingness of the Latin to perform work done by natives increases the belief of both in racial equality."
What a difference between this picture and the Smut-ty one! The Diagone of the French Parliament from Senegal can therefore be easily understood when he falsely refused overtures from Garvey in 1822. M. Diagone said at the time: "We French natives wish to remain French since France has given us every liberty and since she has unreservedly accepted us upon the same basis as our children." No children! No propaganda, no influence of the blacks or of the whites will take from us the pure sentiment that France alone is capable of working generously for the advancement of the black race.
And what Diagone says of Africa is truer of the French West Indies. The French West Indian in France Frenchman and may be found in positions of the highest importance, with hundreds of white persons working under his orders.
At another time we shall give a list of these West Indians. Suffice it to name two here: Alcide Delmont, deputy from Martinique, who is in the French Cabinet, and M. Isaac, who is first assistant to the Secretary of the Interior. The two are the most from the Islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe with a combined population of less than half a million. There are many American States that do not make as fine a showing in the national government as those two little islands do in the French government. This spirit of the French towards the Negrooes far back in history, Both the Virgin Mary and Christ are represented as black in many French cathedrals. Napoleon had no less than nine Negro generals. Some day the Negro might work out his own destiny himself. In the meantime, however, it is important that he knows who his friends are. Those friends certainly aren't the hunchy Anglo-Saxons. Where were the American Negro would be here they were fairly treated!

Jews See Discrimination In Immigration Bill
CAPE TOWN, March 3 (Jewish Telegraphic Agency)—As the new South African quota bill, limiting the number of immigrants to 50 each year from each of the East and South European countries, passed its third reading. M. Kittridge, Jewish Member of Parliament, in a last protest blamed the government for aiming the bill at a particular race.
Dr. Daniel P. Malan, Minister of the Interior and father of the bill, had stated that 80 per cent of the people whom the bill seeks to exclude lived upon producers. Mr. Kittridge offered figures of 1,654 immigrants who arrived in 1929, 749 women and children and 915 men, of whom 436 were producers.
Pointing out that the doors to immigration in South Africa were virtually closed, Emile Nathan, Nathanian Member of Parliament, charged the government with prejudice.
In Johannesburg, Harry Carter, secretary of the South African Board of Jewish Deputies, proposed that May 1, the day the law goes into effect, be declared a day of mourning and prayer—Clipping.

had planned to go to refuse the trip under the conditions?
That would be one of the most telling and effective methods of hitting at prejudice that could be undertaken. It would show true patriotism and cause the country to stand shamed before the whole world. If these women were brave enough to tell the world they would have been in the cemeteries of Europe without ever having been visited than to accept, even at the hands of their government, such an insult—if they could and would unite for this, it would make the country sit up and take notice. I believe they would be willing to only it has not been suggested to them, perhaps.
Get every woman to pledge herself to refuse the trip, except where she is able to travel on her own. There is one place and time when Jim Crowism does not have to be mutely accepted. The boys whoongiving died in the war for a principity Let the women of the race prove themselves as heroic for principle. It is for the newspapers of the country to call upon them and push the campaign with determination and effectiveness. Very truly yours, (Signet) J. H. JONES, JR.

regarded today as an acute incumulation of acid in the blood. once of this infection is through sease occurs more commonly in articularly in older children and young adults.
An attack is often preceded by tonsillitis, then the feeling of stiffness all over, followed by a high fever, swollen painful joints coming—dust one and then the other—wet. This condition sometimes takes for several weeks with the patient very sick and painful and must not be fused with the chronic painful joints of older people. Acute rheatic fever is in itself quite serious, but the heart complications which are often manifest constitute by far a much graver constitue. They valves in the heart seem more affected, but the whole structure of this organ might be invloved.
It has been demonstrated that bad tonsils and teeth are predisposing causes of this disease. Careful attention to and the removal of these sources of infection, when necessary, can long way in reducing the occurrence of this disease. The pain in children times called growing pain may be the first symptoms of acute rheumatic fever, and they should be investigated. The after care is very important in these cases, even after the joint symptoms have subsided upon for the purpose of healing heart complications and to attempt to rid the patients of the disease.
This malady has the tendency to recur, and inasmuch as this is the season of the year when acute rheumatism is more prevalent. I would suggest that those individuals who have suffered from the disease, exercise great, care and protect themselves from indiscriminate changes of clothing, undue exposure and sudden chilling of the body. If you are a potential victim of acute rheumatic fever because of having infected gums and tonsils, have them attended to. Such attention may be a preventive measure.

"By the Skin of Youth Tooth"
THE old saying, "By the skin of your teeth," is literally correct, though relatively few persons know it. Your teeth have a skin, a very thin, transparent cuticle. This cuticle is the remnant of the anelobes cells which, during the formative period of the tooth, secreted enamel.
Many authorities doubt whether this skin, which is scientifically known as Nosmyth's membrane, after the discoverer, has any function. However, there are some who believe that it has some relation to tooth decay. It is extremely thin and hard, so it cannot cult to get a sufficient quantity with which to do very much experimental work. Still further, it is very unstable and cannot be easily handled in the laboratory. However, it has been found that teeth with Nosmyth's membrane intact are not prone to decay. It believe that, when we find out more about teeth with skin, at least we will have made a great stride in the understanding of tooth decay, about which at present we know comparatively little.

Rain Dance
BENEATH the moon near some lagoon
Still naked tribesfolk prance.
While others croon and call the loon
To see the black girls dance.
Across the sands these tropic lands
By drum beats set afire.
Send endless bands with painted hands.
And bodies bare like wire.
Hemmed in by cane they dance for rain.
Strong youths as pure as air—
The girls remain hid on the moon.
Dressed only in their hair.
Some loon then screams; and awake from dreams.
The maidens meet their mates.
With brighter beams, the moonlight gleams.
And each heart palpitates.
Perhaps rain comes before the drums
Are silenced by the sun;
But when it huts they heed those drums—
And let the raindrops run.
--ANTONIO JARVIS.
