Timely Topics OF THE WEEK
By THE EDITOR
vin or Lose
WHILE THIS editorial is being written, the Senate is still debating whether to confirm or reject the nomination of Judge John J. Parker in North Carolina to be an Associate justice of the United States Supreme Court. Over the weekend President Hoover brought all the pressure to bear that he could on opposing senators to win over a sufficient number of them to insure Judge Parker's confirmation. It is expected that the result will be known this afternoon. But no matter, though, whether Judge Parker wins or loses in the right for confirmation, several results of the contest are known. One is that President Hoover was actuated mainly by political reasons when he dominated the anti-Negro, anti-immigrant Southerner for the place, North Carolina gave Hoover a 65,000 majority in the last presidential election and the President is anxious to hold that state in the Republican column.
This was made clear in the letter of Assistant Secretary of the Interior Joseph M. Dixon to Mr. Hoover's political secretary. "I believe Judge Parker's appointment would be a master political stroke at this time," Dixon wrote.
We are not opposed to seeing North Carolina, or any other Southern state, in the G. O. P. fold, and rejoiced when Candidate Hoover smashed the solid South. What we are opposed to is the sacrifice of principles of the Constitution and of the Republican party in an endeavor to keep North Carolina Republican. Another result that stands out in bold relief is the fact that Judge Parker appears to be not of Supreme Court caller, even if he should be confirmed.
Still another result of the fight, and the most important one to us, is the united effort put forth by Negro all over the country, under the leadership of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to prevent Parker's confirmation. This united effort, win or lose, should go on until every senator who votes for the confirmation of Judge Parker is defeated when he again comes up for re-election; that is, if he can be defeated by Negro votes.
Ghandi's Belated Arrest
Mahatma Ghandi, 60-year-old Indian Nationalist leader, is again under lock and key for his civil discontent campaign against British rule in India. Two of his sons have already been sentenced to jail terms for participation in the campaign. Ghandi had violated the salt laws, in defiance of the government's monopoly, for a month, but his imprisonment was delayed in the belief that it would make a martyr of him.
Ghandi, however, is already a martyr, and nothing that the British government may do to him can dim the lustre of his unique career, and Ghandi followers will press on until India is free of British rule.

Charge That Administration Offered Judgeships in Exchange for Confirmation

Girl May Lose Sight After Lye Attack Laid to Infuriated Former Sweetheart
Friendship of Two Shattered Because She Insists He Has Another Attraction Court to Hear Story of Assault
A tale of unreasoning love which turned to such bitter hatred when repulsed that a Harlem girl may lose her eyesight from having lye thrown into her face, will be recounted today in Heights Court.
Every indication today is that Parker will fall of confirmation by from one to five votes, and this after nearly ten days of debate, during which administration leaders hoped that the opposition would subside. Today the opposition seems as strong, if not stronger, than ever, as each day brings forth additional reasons why Parker should not be confirmed. Hodgking, Offered for Votes.
Judgeships Offered for Votes. Charges that the administration has offered Federal judgeships in exchange for Parker votes, a demand for an investigation by the Senate Lobby Committee, uncontrovertible evidence that the nomination was dictated by political considerations, along with the continued opposition by Negroes and union labor organizations have been some of the week's

Accused of throwing lye at Miss Frances Perry, 20, 128 Bradhurst avenue, Adolph Pinder, 23, of the same address, was held without ball for a further hearing when arraigned Thursday before Magistrate Gottlieb. The couple had been friends for almost a year and recently when Miss Perry learned that Pinder was in love with another woman a quarrel ensued during which she told him she no longer cared to see him. Miss Perry told the police that she was alone in her apartment when she heard a knock on the door. When she found that Pinder was seeking to enter she at first refused to open the door, but when he pleaded that he had something of importance to tell her she allowed him in.
Pinder sought to effect a reconciliation, but Miss Missy persisted upon the breaking up of their love affair because another woman had entered his life. Pinder, the young woman said, refused to leave the apartment and virtually kept her a prisoner in her home for two hours until she threatened to call a policeman and have him arrested. It was then, she said, that Pinder pulled a small can of lye from his pocket and hurled the contents at her.
As she lay writhing on the floor,

Senator Henry F. Ashurst, Democrat, of Arizona, started the Senate Monday when he demanded that the lobby committee call senators before it and investigate an alleged offer of the judgeships for Parker votes. He declared that "a cluster of odium surrounds this whole transaction," and again assailed Judge Parker as a "weakling." Senators Simon D. Fess, Republican, of Ohio, and James E.

Charging unfaithfulness, Mrs. Williams, through her witnesses, contends that it is a case of the eternal triangle, and one in which a young husband had weakened under the bewitching spell and divine music brought forth from the bow of Miss Fannie Carmel, popular young white violin instructor.
Mr. Williams maintains a studio at 1882 Bergen street, the Williams Progressive School of Music. In the organization of this institution a few years ago, we secured the services of Miss Carmel as violin instructor.
It was not very long after this, it was charged, that the business relationship between employer and employee took on a different aspect, thus forcing Mrs. Williams to leave the defendant and seek quarters elsewhere.
Murray L. Duskin, white, in an affidavit, set forth that subsequent to the departure of Mrs. Williams he visited the music studio and met Miss Carmel, who represented herself as Mrs. Williams; and further, -that from the relationship a child was born to said Famille Carmel in April.
Police immediately began a search for Louis Webb, estranged husband of the wounded woman. Witnesses told officers that he fled the house immediately after the shooting. McCray, a roomer in the apartment since the husband's departure three weeks ago, was killed as he slept on a couch, one bullet entering his head and another penetrating his heart. His assailant then turned the gun on Mrs. Webb, wounding her in the right leg.
The crime was committed shortly after 11 p. m., in the presence of McCray's brother, Elliot, and Mr. and Mrs. James Hall, also roomers living in the same apartment. According to these witnesses, Webb forced himself into the apartment and fired three shots almost immediately, two of them taking effect in the sleeping man and the other striking Mrs. Webb.
McCray was pronounced dead by Dr. Hogan of Harlem Hospital and Mrs. Webb was removed to the hospital for treatment. Detectives Solomon and O'Connor of the West 123d street station have been assigned to the case.

North Carolina Posse
Out to Get Two Men
ROCKY MOUNT, N. C., May 5.—A posse of 500 to 1,000 men was believed closing in today on two men who attacked the daughter of a Battleboro town official and seriously wounded her male escort, beat another man senseless and killed one knight. Possse leaders were certain the fugitives were hiding in a wood near the place where the attack occurred.
The girl was motoring with Frank Crickmore, 21, when the men halted the car and asked for a match. One of them fired a shot through the windshield, wounding Crickmore in the throat. The first clue the posse found was the body of Lee, who had been beaten to death with an axe. With Lee's body was Buck Hillard. When he recovered consciousness, Hillard told officers Lee had been killed and he himself had been beaten by two men last night.
Magistrate Orders Arrest of Dentist
Dr. George G. Reece Fails to Answer Charge of Attack on Kin
Ball of $1,500, furnished for the appearance of Dr. George G. Reece, 33, a dentist, 197 St. Nicholas avenue, who was arrested on a charge of assault on April 21, was declared forfeited by Magistrate Dodge in Harlem Court on Sunday when he failed to appear for trial.
The dentist was arrested by Policeman Cunningham of the West 123d院 of the institution of police, his brother-in-law Frank O'Neill, his artist, 2412 Seventh avenue. He testified that, accompanied by his mother, he went to see Reece to have him sign certain papers to enable Mrs. Reece, from whom he was separated, to go South for her health.
A dispute arose, O'Neill said, and his brother-in-law then attacked him with a ice pick, stabbing him in the chest, breaking wounds which required medical attention. He further charged that the dentist, bit him on the shoulder.
Reece, when arrested, denied using the ice pick, although he admitted picking it up for the purpose of defending himself because O'Nell had assaulted him. He was released on bail of $1,500 and the case adjourned to enable him to produce witnesses. When he failed to appear a bench warrant was issued for the arrest of Reece.

BEAUTY IN THE
By LEOLA LILLARD.
Everyone recognizes the need of modern interior for light, air and the forms and varieties of colors in plumbing fixtures. Despite the limitations imposed by utility, beauty in color and form reveals its artistic value in the bathroom.
Most modern housewives have deserted the strictly white bathroom by adding a little color to the plumbing and fixtures; designers suggest Ming green. Tang red, Ionian black, Clair de Lune blue, Ivore de Meditel, St. Porchaire brown, Orchard of Vincennes, Rose du Barry and Royal Copenhagen blue.
Toilet seats, bathroom stools and chair backs will all in the same color, complimented by such furnishings as bath mats, towels and shower curtains.
The window curtain for the bathroom this year is similar to last year's fashion. Organdy, voile and net, in pastel shades to harmonize with the other decoration, can be made up in short tie-back or criss-cross curtains.
In making the color selection, care should be taken to avoid overdoing the job. Remembering the bathroom to be in most instances, small to medium size coloring, and should study a combination in contrast that will effect daintiness rather than hideous flashes of grotesque colors and designs.
The medicine cabinet and shelves in the bathroom should be cleared in the spring of old medicines and medical aids used in the winter and replaced by bath salts and other ne-

Baptist Pastor in East Orange Opposed by Part of Flock
Police were called to prevent any serious trouble at Mt. Olive Baptist Church, East Orange, Sunday after a faction in opposition to the pastor picketed the front and attempted to convince communicants they should stay away as long as the minister is in the pulpit.
The Rev. Robert J. Terrell is the pastor and he has been experiencing difficulties with a dissatisfied section of his flock for about two years. The pastor's followers called police Sunday morning and Detective Armon Hillard succeeded in calming the factions.
A second call brought Capt. Frank Petersen and a reserve squad to the church, where the police assert, there was considerable disorder. The congregation was ordered out and the church locked.
The Rev. Mr. Terrell insists that he will be in the pulit庙 Sunday, while his opponents are not so sure they will listen to his message. The opposing group, which was voted out last week, while he maintains that most of the members want him to continue.
It was charged in some quarters that the Rev. Mr. Terrell expelled seven opposition members from the church Sunday. According to the report, the opposition outspoken only by the overwhelming disapproval of his flock. No church officer presides over the pastorates.

LANDLORDS HIT HARD BY RIVERS' BILL
WEDNESDAY, MAY 7, 1930
Governor Approves Law to Deny Rents On Premises in "Unlivable" Condition
Signs Bill to Force Owners to Remove Violations Placed on Property by City Departments—Courts to Aid Tenants
ALBANY, May 5.—Landlords who refuse to make repairs of remove violations placed upon their premises by city departments may have their rents denied them until the violations are removed.
.
Assemblman Francis E. Rivers' bill, intended to force necessary repairs of tenement houses, was signed Wednesday by Governor Roseanne McCain, who said conditions prevailing in many harlem apartment houses, the new law is considered one of the most effective measures available to tenants.
```markdown
```
The bill was bitterly contested by real estate men before the Assembly and Senate committees and again at the hearing before Governor Roosevelt. Harlem and other sections' tenants organizations and welfare bodies fought for the enactment of the bill along every step of its legislative path.
When the violations are not removed the tenant may withhold the rent until he is held to court for non-payment, presenting proof that violations exist, the justice uphold his denial of the rent and instruct the court to collect from the tenant and hold the money until the violations are removed. Mr. Rivers used a statement saving:
"This law will fail of any beneficial effects if not properly utilized by the tenants. An explanation of its provisions is, for that reason, given. In the first place, there must be violations on the premises. In the second place, these violations must have been placed on the premises in order to prevent occupies occupied by the tenant of such serious disrepair as to make a portion of such premises uninhabitable, that is to say, unlivable.
"For example, if a hole in the roof permits rain to enter into one of the rooms, so that the room cannot be occupied with safety to health, the staining applies.
The law books are full of various cases, which make premises unlivable, and includes such matters as an excess of vermin, or the complete disrepair of toilet facilities, or dangerous condition of ceilings and flooring.
"In such instances if the owner fails to make repairs, the tenant can refuse to pay him the rent. The owner will then apply to the court the tenant will plead this condition of disrepair a defense and offer to pay the rent into court. The court will hear testimony as to the condition of the apartment and, if it deems that the condition of disrepair makes the premises unliveable he will refuse a dispossession of the land and permit the tenant to pay the rent. The landlord then can never secure money from the court until he has remitted this dangerous condition and removed the violation. Of course, it must appear to the court that the tenant himself did not cause this bad condition of his apartment naturally. If a tenant willfully caused a condition of disrepair in order to up the landlord's rent, the law would not protect such a tenant.
"As the personnel and appropriations of the Tenement House Department are insufficient to cope with the serious condition of disrepair in these houses in New York City, this house enabling tenants to aid in complying house repairs, should be of very effective help in cleaning up the apartments of New York City and making them safe and healthy to live in."
Two other housing laws signed by the governor end the occupancy of cells in old-law tenements and provide vertical fire escapes.

The growing air-mindedness of the Negro was demonstrated on Sunday afternoon, when one hundred aviation enthusiasts made the long trip to the Curtiss Aviation Field at Valley Stream, L. I., to witness the christening of the "Miss Harlem," and the initial flight of its owner and pilot, Charles E. James. Originally planned to take place at the Roosevelt Fleet, a last minute change of plan moved the scene of the christening to the other aviation field, but the crowd good-naturedly made the change in a few minutes. The plane, a Curtiss Commandeire, was christened at 4 p. m. by Mrs. Bessye J. Bearden with the traditional bottle of champagne. Following the christening, Mr. James, who recently received his limited pilot's license, was presented with a bequest of roses by his sister, Mrs. Sarah Michele of 003 North Street. Motion pictures were made of the ceremony and the witnessing crowd by the Biltmore Film Company.
Most of the spectators, however, were disappointed in their desire to see Mr. James make a flight in his plane. Permission to fly his machine by authorities at the field was not given until most of the crowd had boarded on their return trip to the city.
The few who remained were rewarded for their patient vigil, for the young aviator made two successful flights, of about fifteen minutes' duration each. In the course of the afternoon, a score or more Harlemites made short flights in a huge eighteen-passenger Curtiss plane, as in a large air-tmotor Ford shin
Shaw President's Resignation Asked
Alumni Committee Charges Maladministration Before Board
According to a news release Monday, a committee of four, representing the executive committee of the Alumni Association of Shaw University, appeared before the trustee board of Shaw University at their recent meeting in New York City and presented a plea for assistance in administration against Dr. J.

Members of the committee were C. E. Lightner, Raleigh business man and president of the Alumni Association; L. E. Graves, secretary-manager of the Eagle Life Insurance Co.; Raleigh; Prof. W. S. Creey, principal, Rich Square Institute, prominent minister and leader of eastern North Carolina, and Dr. J. B. Davls, Louisburg, physician and president of the State Baptist, Young People's Union.
After the board meeting the committee was assured by members of the trustee board that President Peacock would resign and that this was recorded on the minutes of the session, the report stated.
The Negro members of the Shaw University board are: G. C. Spaulding, Durham; E. E. Smith, Fayetteville; C. S. Brown, Winton; J. P. Turner, Philadelphia, and G. O. Bullock, Washington.
The board of trustees decided that the medical school, which was discontinued several years ago, should be reopened.
Deaf Mute "Converses" by Reading Lips of Talkers
A veteran hiker and deaf mute who carries on his conversations by lip reading and writing on a pad paid the city a visit Friday en route to Council Bluffs, Ia., where he expects to prepare to teach lip reading and to study medicine at the Iowa Lip Reading Center. The silent visitor was "Boston Billy" Bowen, 26, formerly of Boston, as it may be surmised, lately of Portsmouth, N. H., and other points. The young man claims to have hiked through forty States during his three years of tramping. Boston Billy attended a government school for deaf mutes at Portsmouth and he the mastered English, Spanish and French. The scription.

Twins, 3. Felled by Fumes As Kitchen Blaze Starts
Returning from a shopping tour Monday afternoon, Mrs. Mary Reid, 106 West 142d street, found her three-year-old twins, Edna and Walter, unconscious on the floor of her smokefilled apartment. The mother's excited screams brought neighbors, who carried the children to the street. An ambulance was summoned and the children were revived by Dr. Levine of Harlem Hospital. Meanwhile the fire alarm had been given and firemen responding found the fire wholly confined to the kitchen. It was quickly put out and the resulting damage found to be slight. The cause of the fire is not known, the children being alone in the apartment at the time of its outbreak.

One of the most unusual robberies in police annals of Harlem occurred early Friday morning when Myrtle C. Anderson, lawyer and social worker, founder and director of the Myrtle C.

Miss Anderson, whose bedroom adjoins her office on the main floor of the building, was drugged and the robbery committed as she slept.

Juvenile Aid Society Asserts Only Part of Its Activities Have Ceased Overdrawn Budget Blamed for Suspension
Despite the protests of the New York the residents of the community, the work Neighborhood Centre, 224 West Sixty-third by suspended last Wednesday by order of city, which declared that this year's budget possible by a gift of John D. Rockefeller, J by the disbursements.
Despite the protests of the New York Urban League and the residents of the community, the work of the Columbus Hill Neighborhood Centre, 224 West Sixty-third street, was indefinitely suspended last Wednesday by order of the Children's Aid Society, which declared that this year's budget for the centre, made possible by a gift of John D. Rocketteller, Jr., was being exceeded by the disbursements.
The closing of this centre, which for the past two years has provided the only recreational and vocational training for more than 800 children in the storm of indignation and protest, not only in the community but throughout the city.
At a mass meeting held at the centre on the night before the work was declared officially closed, Columbus Hill residents passed resolutions petitioning the Children's Aid Society concerning its programe, directing its presence in community welfare "as a means of keeping the 800 boys and girls from the streets."
the regular activities will be resumed.
Despite this announcement of Mr. Lovejoy on Friday, E. H. Wilson, director of the welfare activities, Monday told the Amsterdam News that the centre was definitely closed on the appointed date, April 30, by the Children's Aid Society.
"I do not see," he declared, "how Mr. Lovejoy can reconcile this statement with its programe, directing its presence in community welfare "as a means of keeping the 800 boys and girls from the streets."
the work would be discontinued.
Praising the work of Edward H. Wilson, director of the settlement since its creation two years ago, the resolution declared "that the birth of the Columbus Hill Centre has awakened a neighborhood consciousness, and that the activities of its various departments, paediatrics and children, providing for them a place for helpful and healthy recreation."
James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the New York Urban League, charged the society with acting hastily without consultation with other social leaders, the advisory committee of the centre, or with Mr. Rockefeller.
Describing the closing of the neighborhood activities as "most unfortunate, and citing the alleged shortage of appropriate "reason for curtailment of this important welfare work, Mr. Hubert on Saturday issued the following statement:
Charges Unfairness
"The Henrietta building, in which the Neighborhood Centre and the school have been operated, is owned by the Children's Aid Society. For years this society has conducted a Jim-Crow school in that district against the protests of all children in York. Somehow money could be found to pay the salary of these teachers, most of whom could not qualify with the Board of Education. It seems strange that money cannot be found, therefore, to continue an activity that keeps young people off the street, especially if the neighborhood is demanding that it continue. "In the opinion of many residents, a program for Columbus Hill should not be entrusted to the Children's Aid Society. There should be more self-determination. The people of the community and other agencies interested in the welfare of the district should give a voice in doing what is to be done. A better housing program is needed."
of the advisory board of the centre, of which Mr. Hubert was chairman, was dismissed several months ago, he declared, because of its insistence that Mr. Wilson be given a free hire from the school's settlement work. The entire controversy at the centre, he said, was "purely personal."
Close on the heels of the announcement that the activities of the centre would be discontinued indefinitely, the Children's Aid Society issued a statement on Thursday in contradiction, declaring that the would be closed. Owen R. Lovejoy, white, secretary of the Children's Aid Society, said:
"There is no question of the centre's being closed. It may be that this unfounded rumor started because the society, in accordance with its general policy in such matters, is transferring the grade school unit, as it is doing in all its branches, to the public school system.
Will Resume in Fall.
"The work of the baby health station of the city Department of Health housed in the building, the day nursery, and the nursing service of the A. I. C. P. will also continue. A temporary interruption is caused by the need of hospital gynaecium. Plans are under way for the summer play school and in the fall.

Despite this announcement of Mr. Lovejoy on Friday, E. H. Wilson, director of the welfare activities, Monday told The Amsterdam News that the centre was definitely closed on the appointed date, April 30, by the Children's Aid Society.
"I do not see," he declared, "how Mr. Lovejoy can reconcile this statement with the society's announcement of the citizens last week that the work would be discontinued.
"The baby health station, the day nursery, the grade school, and the work of the A. I. C. P. are all separate organizations only housed in the same building with the centre, but independent bodies with deep ties with its management. The play school, which Mr. Lovejoy speaks of, is operated every year by the Child Study Association of America," Mr. Wilson further stated. The cooking, sewing, carpentry and all the other classes, which represented the real work of the organization, he said, have all been stopped. He needed to be in Columbus Hill, Wilson said. "The protest meeting in which the entire community engaged is a chief tribute to the necessity of its continuance." The centre was created in October, 1928, when Mr. Rockefeller agreed to donate $29,500 toward a three-year expenditure budget of $36,000. His donation, in addition to the expenditures of $12,000, $10,000 and $-7,500. The remaining $4,500 was to be raised from other sources. The Children's Aid Society had full control and administration of this fund.
Storekeepers Win Freedom in Court
Janitor Beaten by White Men When He Goes for Garbage Cans
Two white storekeepers, who are charged with violently resenting the attitude of a Harlem janitor whose garbage cans they confiscated, were discharged Friday in Harlem Court, after Magistrate Dodge heard the story.
Nicholas Hunt. 127 East 110th street, made the complaint in a video. David Socheter, 27, 937 Sutter avenue, Brooklyn, and Harold Frank, 28, 262 South Fourth street, Brooklyn, conduct a drygoods store at 127 East 110th street.
Hunt testified that the storekeepers were in the habit of using the garbage cans which he placed in front of the house for the tenants without authority. He entered the store where, he alleges, he found four of his cans.
One of the cans was filled with garbage, which he dumped on the floor of the store. It was then, he said, the storekeepers, as well as two men who were in the store, joined in the attack upon him.
One of the men struck him on the head with an iron bar, inflicting a deep scalp) wound. In court the jailor admitted it was possible that the man had been in the store, and Schechter and Frank were discharged.

THE STAFF
NATIONAL COSTUMES of 1,500 school children, comprising many groups in the city, blossomed like a garden of many colored flowers Thursday as Acting Mayor McKee officially proclaimed Child Health week at a pageant at City Hall. These youngsters went downtown from P. S. 157, 327 St. Nicholas avenue, of which Mrs. Abby P. Leland, white, is principal. Mayor Walker, who left the same day for Bermuda to rest, issued a proclamation in which he called for extermination of diphtheria in 1930.
Indications Point to Defeat of Judge Parker for Supreme Court
(Continued from Page One.)
seen lobbying for Parker votes and named Judge Yates Webb as the man.
Before Stephens spoke Senator Cole S. Blease, Democrat, of South Carolina, read a telegram from the Colored People's Union, of Detroit, stating that Negroes are opposed to judges "who deny our people full equality." This coming from Blease was for the benefit of those supporting Parker. He has already announced that he will vote for confirmation.
The political significance of the nomination was seen in the letter of Joseph M. Dixon, Assistant Secretary, of the Interior, to Walter H. Newton, President Hoover's political secretary, make public last week. In it he wrote that the nomination of Judge Parker would be a master political stroke and asked him to bring the matter to the attention of the President.
The letter was written three days after the death of Associate Justice E. T. Sanford, and in full is as follows:
"The First Assistant Secretary of the Interior, Washington, March 13, 1930. "Walter H. Jackson. "The White House. "My dear Mr. Newton: I speak as a native-born North Carolina Reporter. "North Carolina gave President Howard 65,000 majority. In my judgment, it carries more hope of future permanent alignment with the Replenishing Plan than any other of the Southern States that broke from their political moorings last year.

Parker to the Supreme Court would be a major political stroke. North Carolina has had no outstanding cases in the past, and the manning of Judge Parker at this time would appear mightily to state pride. It would be the first distinction appointment made from the South to a position toward satisfying the unquestioned feeling that the Administration has not yet recognized the political revival. "Every one tells me that Judge Parker is a man of fine personality, who has made a most enviable record both in private practice and as a judge on the Supreme Court. His education and legal training he would measure up to the position. There would be no apology necessary. He is a Pillai Kappa, a lawyer in the South Carolina. The fact that he is forty-five years old, and has not yet reached the senior stage, would give him favor in the matter of a Supreme Court decision.
"I may be prejudiced on account of my knowledge and sympathy for North Carolina Republicans, who have home the hanner, in season and out, under tremendous discouragement. I would pointment would be a master political stroke at this time. "If in the midst of overwhelming demands upon your time and his, these considerations could be presented to President Hoover, I beware they are worthy of solemn thought.

Slayer Goes to Death Protesting Innocence
COLUMBIA. S. C., May 5 (ANP).
—I am going to meet Jesus," declared Eli Trustale, convicted slayer of Willie Britow and his wife, both white, as he took his seat in the electric chair here last Tuesday morning, and a few seconds later the electric current had started him on his way. Trustale, speaking to some fifty-five white citizens who gathered in the death chamber to witness the execution, declared: "I am going to die innocent. I told a lie on myself." Trustale also told me he made declaring that he had participated in the murder of the white couple, the statement which played such an important part in his conviction.

N. A. A. C. P. Urges Women to Decline Segregation Travel Plan
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People yesterday began sending letters to Negro Gold Star mothers urging them to not take the trips to European cemeteries offered by the government.
The mothers and widows of men who gave their lives in the World War were urged to decline the trips because the War Department has made arrangements for segregation of Negro women on the trips.
The N. A. A. C. P., in its letter to the Gold Star mothers, cites the War Department's statement that "colored accommodations will provide accommodations, care and consideration as furnished the white women making the journey, although groups of colored mothers and widows will be formed."
The form protest sent the mothers for them to send to President Hoover says, in part:
"In the years which have passed since death took our loved ones our anguish and sorrow have been assuaged by the realization that our loved ones who rest in the soil of France gave their lives to the end that the world might be a better place in which to live for all men, of all races and of all colors."
"Ten years after the Armistice the high principles of 1918 seem to have been forgotten. We who gave and who are colored are insulted by the implication that we are not fit persons to travel with other bereaved ones. We appeal to you, as Chief Executive of our nation and as Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy, to issue an order abolishing this unjust ruling."
"If you, as President of the United States, refuse to abolish this ruling, we respectfully decline to make the trip to France, preferring, instead, to remain at home and retain our honor and self-respect."
"Government Unfair to Gold Star Mothers"
PHILADELPHIA. May 5 (ANP) In an address delivered before a mammoth crowd which came to witness the laying of the cornerstone of the new nurses' home of the Mercy Hospital, Oscar DePriest scored severely the attitude of the United Mothers of Negro soldiers who fought and died in the last great struggle. Mayor Harry Mackey was present on the occasion and congratulated the directors of the hospital for the splendid work they were doing. The State Grand Lodge of Masons, as well as organizations of the Elks, took part in the exercise. Former Federal minister Kane Kane praised the work of J. Willis McDermott, president, and A. M. Greenman,urer, of the campaign fund committee. Addresses were also delivered by Assistant District Attorney Asbury and Magistrate Edward W. Henry.

Won't Part With Burial Fund; Goes to Jail
BOSTON, May 5 (ANP)—John J. Hannigan believed that it is far better to put money aside to pay for his funeral than to support his wife, he testified before Judge Palmer in Roxbury District Court last Tuesday when she brought non-support charges against him.
Hannigan, who is not living with his wife, admitted that he has $500 to his account, but this he said, will never be touched for any material thing in this world, that it will not be used to help support either himself or his wife, and that this money will be used to provide him with a decent burial.
Even when Judge Palmer continued the case and ordered ball set at $500,

Homicide Court Denies Bail to White Man Who Slew Customer in Restaurant
Laborer Shot Through Heart by Owner of Lunch Room in East Harlem - Slayer Tells Story of Attack With Knife
Telling a story of how he was "forc in self-defense when the man objected to sonal slight, a white restaurant proprietor for a further hearing when arraigned on in Homicide Court.
Telling a story of how he was "forced" to slay a customer in self-defense when the man objected to what he termed a personal slight, a white restaurant proprietor was held without bail for a further hearing when arraigned on a murder charge Friday in Homicide Court.
Masquerate Corrigan presided at the hearing and decided that John Christor, owner of the restaurant at Third avenue and 129th street, should be held for a more extended inquiry into the shooting.
According to Christor, Thomas Allen, 45, a laborer who lived at the Dohoney Club, 409 East 124th street, came into his place Thursday night and ordered some ham and eggs. A white man sitting next to Allen was served at about the same time, according to the police of the East 125th street station.
The white man used the catus which was offered to Christor, who did not offer it to Allen. The restaurant man said Allen pulled out a knife and attempted to attack him and his dishwasher because the catus was not offered him.

Parachute Jumper and Mate Head American Unit on 135th Street
The American Aviation School, 736 Lexington avenue, extended its activities to Harlem last Wednesday when a branch was opened at 222 West 135th street.
The school will receive students at the 135th street office and give some instruction there. All classes will be co-ordinated with the downtown offices. The branch is in charge of Mrs. and Mr. William Daughtry, 247 West 136th street. There is another unit at 116 East Fifty-ninth street.
Mrs. Mary Daughtry is a parachute jumper and has been leaping from planes and balloons for ten years.
Her latest descent from a plane was Friday afternoon, when she jumped from a plane piloted by W. H. Wilson, white, above Flushing Field, Flushing, L. I. Jumping from a height of 2,000 feet, Mrs. Daughtry landed three miles from the field. Max Kahn, white, president of the American school, issued a statement Saturday in which he said: "We have opened up the school with the intention of giving all the assistance possible. I personally believe that it is a very good idea of the colored race, because it will give them opportunity to enter aviation as well as any other race. I feel that the colored people have had no chance to undertake aviation, and it is for that reason the school is being opened for them." The school's plans call for the erection of a factory and of airports where graduates of the institution will be employed. A plane and parts are on view at the 135th street branch.

Bondsman Adjudged Guilty of Taking $650 for Providing Bail
A white bondsman, charged with grand larceny and forgery in connection with the killing of Bond, was found guilty Wednesday by a jury in General Sessions.
The man was Joseph Steiner, 48, 111 East Eighty-second street. His was the first conviction in the bail bond investigation of the Magistrates' Court being conducted by District Attorney Crain. The complaint was Mrs. Cordella Raymond, 407 West 145th street, whose nephew, Wilfred Burke, was charged on a charge of possession of "policy" slips on December 16. Mrs. Raymond, accompanied by Burke's wife, was approached by Steiner, who offered to effect the man's release. When asked for collateral for the $500 bond, which should have cost $15, Mrs. Raymond told the bondman that she had about $800 in the Commonwealth Savings Bank. Steiner went to her home and induced the woman to give him power of attorney. He drew out $500 on January 17 and $150 on January 23. Burke was convicted when sent to Special Sessions. He was given a thirty-day suspended sentence.
Judge William Allen heard the case of forgery and larceny. He ordered Steiner remanded to jail for sentence.

Pullman Co. Introduces Chinese Porters in West
LOS ANGELES, May 5 (ANP).—With every one wondering what will be the next move, and even white employees of the Pullman Company here doing what they can in the interest of the porters, feeling as if least here over the sudden treacherous move taken by the Pullman Company.
With the introduction of oriental help in the Pullman service last week, railroad circles were still trying to recover from the effects of the shock and were at a complete loss to just there. The widest and smallest porters were highly incensed over what they termed a rank violation of their seniority rights, and were endeavoring to find some way in which to stabilize the turmil created thereby.
The inception of the Chinese porters, twelve in manpower to replace six will make the whole district and the effects of the bumping will be felt all through the summer months.

Tidrington's Slayer Quickly Acquitted
Tidrington's Slayer Quickly Acquitted
Deceased Was Grand Chancellor of Knights of Pythias Order
EVANSVILLE, Ind., May 5—(ANP)
—After listening for two days to an overwintering mass of testimony from more than a score of witnesses, a jury in judge John J. Brady's court found Luther Bell, confessed slayer of Ernest G. Tidrington, former vice-supreme chancellor of the Knights of Pythians, not guilty of second degree murder.
Emnity between Bell and Tidrington was traced to the time when Tidrington blamed Bell for the failure of the school commission to name the school after Tidrington. From that time on, witnesses asserted, and Bell corroborated, Tidrington opposed him at every opportunity.
On the night when he ran out of his pool room and fired the shot that ended Tidrington's career Bell claimed, Tidrington had done to him had driven him insane and he did not know what he was doing.
The officers who arrested him testified that he acted like a man of unsound mind.
As a consequence, the jury, after

Man Who Suffered for Six Years
Gives Praise to This Modern
Medicine.
No man or woman ever got relief
through promises. Results are what
sufferers want and need. The
sufferers are bound by high-sounding
phrases. Konjika can be counted on for
results simply because it has given

Konjoja—the most talked of medicine in America—is a compound of medicine, roots and herbs long known for their medicinal worth. All of these of the 52 elements has its own work to do in adding Nature to cleanse and purify, and elimination. Konjoja works with the sufferer's food. It is powerful in the stubborn case, the infant. That is why Konjoja is a household word in one of thousands of languages, the experience of Mr. Ivy B. Delaney, 102 West 123rd Street, New York City, as a fair friend. See the Konjoja Men most you and hear the remarkable story of this remarkable woman in the Whelan drug store, first street and Broadway, New York, and another street and Broadway, Fulton Brooklyn. Ask to hear ALL about this medicine, with more than a million friends, with grateful words of Mr. Delaney, who said:
"For six years I suffered intensely from poor digestion, sour stomach, an upset stomach, and I always felt tired and wore out. Many a time I thought I could not get through the day without it, but not sleep good at night. One day I read about Konjola, and I hope on reading it, I will be able to fulfill it. Of course I was doubtful, for I had tried so many medicines without satisfactory results, and I needed to buy enough Konjola for a month's trial. Well, the phenomenal results I obtained from this drug were astonishing. I fell all the world about. To me it was nothing short of a miracle. Why, I am feeling years younger." Month after six years of suffering, Though Konjola does work swiftly, it is far better to take eight bottles if best results are to be obtained. Konjola contains no alcohol, no nerve-deadening drugs, no heart-racing drugs, Konjola needs no such ingredients.

Hawaiian System of Hair Growing Built on Merit of Products
New York City Branch, 2257 Seventh Avenue
Starting in the year 1913. Mme. T. G. Bramlette, the founder and promoter of the Hawaiian System of scalp and hair culture, has demonstrated rare talents and ability in piloting this great business organization from its humble beginning on a 30-acre lot in its present national scope and influence.
Today, Hawaiian System Treatments are the standard of comparison. Hawaiian System agents are prosperous and their customers are delighted with the benefits received.
The marvulous improvements in the scalp and hair of our women obtained from these famous Treatments have given them a new interest and renewal in hair culture. This renewal of interest coming at a time when public opinion was at its lowest ebb.
Mmc. Bramlette has succeeded in building up an organization whose service contributes largely to the welfare, health and prosperity of our people everywhere. Trained representatives are operating in all important cities and towns from New York to Miami, Florida. She attributes success of her Treatments to the fact that the main feature of the service is to relieve scalp ailments and to grow the hair.
The confidence and good-will of the public is a vital necessity to the permanent success of every enterprise. As time goes on, public interest steadily increases in Hawaiian System products and method of Treatment because of the marked improvement of the hair of all who use these products.
Persons interested in the service or can call at the New York Branch, 2257 Seventh avenue, at any hour. Address mail inquiry to the Hawaiian System Headquarters, 1532 Seventh street, N. W., Washington, D. C.-Advt.

THE industrial worker had an opportunity to express herself at the biennial meeting of the National Y. W. C. A. in Detroit. "The maid," the "hired girl" and just plain "Annie" had many an indictment against mistresses all over these United States.
No longer do they want to be called "maid." In its place must come "domestic employee" or "Miss Smith" or "Miss Brown."
Why all of this objecting to a simple thing like a name? Well, the girls say that "hired girl" is a definite stigma and they can't get anywhere with it; "maid" isn't much better. Uniforms set them apart from the people who employ them—and they don't want uniforms!
Since eating should be a kind of social affair, both jolly and pleasant, why should the servants have to eat alone? No place is usually provided for them in which to entertain their male friends. Nowadays they aren't ever sure of that Thursday afternoon and evening off.
Perhaps these servant girls are asking for a little too much—and at one time. A regular business relationship, with regular hours, very similar to that that exists between the stenographer and her executive, might simplify matters somewhat—T. E. B.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
A Step-Mother Question
DEAR Egypt Ann:
I have been reading your column for a long time, but I never saw my problem discussed. I am unfortunate enough to be a step-mother. I say unfortunate because I am very unhappy. My husband has three children, two girls of 16 and 14, respectively, and a boy of 11.
Egypt Ann, they are very disobedient and disrespectful, both to me and to their father. Yet, their father always takes their part and even encourages them to be insulting. Whenever I scold them, he accuses me of being mean to them just because they are not my children. This is not so as I have really tried to help the children and take the place of their own mother.
My husband is also mean to me. He gives me a little money each day for food. If I ask him for clothes, he tells me I am acting childish. I am really miserable with him. What is your advice? Do you think I should leave him?
HURT.
Dear Hurt:
Yes. I think you should. The man evidently hasn't any respect for you and is trying his best to keep the children from having any. He's simply using you as a housekeeper without pay. Leave him. By making your own way, I believe that you will get much further and be far more happy. He needs a jolt. Give him one and if he asks you to come back, and you should go back, he'll know how to treat you.
EGYPSY ANN.
HOW TO LOOK Your Best
Taking Time at Night
AFTER working hard all day and perhaps entertaining at night, the temptation to fall into the bed as quickly as possible—neglecting to do those little things that count so much—is great.
What are those "little things"? To begin with, the teeth should be brushed carefully. It certainly isn't doing either your teeth or gums any good to go to bed with food particles enlarged therein.
Another duty is to cleanse your face and hands. No doubt, you have used cosmetics during the day and they must be removed. Combined with dust, powder and paint they are quite harmful as they clog up the pores and prevent proper circulation.
Wash your face thoroughly with hot water and a good soap. Then, rinse in cold water. Wash your hands thoroughly as they are germ carters.
Brush your hair for at least five minutes so that it will look alive and glossy. Curl up the ends of your hair, if they are shaggy.
And here is another pre-bed suggestion that ought to be pleasant: Drink a glass of milk, hot or cold, and cat a cracker or two and you will find that you'll sleep better.
All these little duties take time,
but they pay!
Dear Myra:
Don't use peroxide on your hair as it will leave it harsh and brittle. You must dye your hair, have an experienced hair dresser do it.

Household Hints
YOUR broom is bound to wear shorter on the side that is used most. If a worn broom is dipped in hot water and trimmed with shears, it will be as good as new.
Keep your enamelware clean with a paste of salt and vinegar.
In washing new curtains, soak them overnight in water to which a handful of salt has been added. The salt draws out the lime and makes the washing easier.
A fine polishing cloth for windows and silverware may be made out of old underwear.
Clean, hot water poured down the draintipes of the sink will keep them free from grease. Do this after each dishwashing.
Permanent Corks
CORKS of the extracts and other small bottles in the kitchen have accidents. Especially when you are in a hurry the cork obstinate, thus necessitating your digging it out or pushing it in with a fork. Buy some small screw eyes and fasten one of these in each of the cups. They can be changed as the bottle is applied to the new bottle and you will be pleased at the time and trouble saved by this novel cork puller.

You seem to think I can do anything. I know it is my business to do things with furniture and interiors, but there is one thing I won't do for anyone—select a color scheme and inflict it upon them. People are too temperamental in their reaction to colors. What I like another person couldn't stand. As well as I feel I know you, I hesitate to select a color scheme for your living room without consulting you at every step.
The only help I can be to you in planning the colors for your living room is to suggest some possible combinations. There is one thing, however, you should remember in arranging colors—decide what colors you are going to use to bring it out, and then stick to them. Don't be led off your path even by an alluring object of the wrong color.
floor around the rug would be dark brown. Furniture of walnut, brown mohagany or brown oak would fit into this color scheme.
Upholstery materials harmonizing with these colors might be brown, solid blue, blue and brown striped, or blue and yellow. You might have a davernport and one chair in brown and another in blue. A third chair might be blue and brown or blue and yellow. The draperies would be of figured material in which sapphire-blue predominated with a little dull pink or a tan background. A piece of deep blue pottery would help to accent the dominant color, blue, and shimmers of dull pink would give the room a warm appearance. A room in which blue is correctly used is always a restful, comfortable room.

For a quiet, invitable living room you might use brown, blue and buff. This can be worked out very attractively and very inexpensively. You could have plain tan walls, or two tones of tan. This will make a nice neutral background for the furniture. A brown rug with a dull brown border would make a firm foundation. The

Uses for Borax
APART from its valuable service in the laundry to whiten clothes, borex has many important other uses. Dissolved in boiling water, it will open sink drains. Scattered in closets, it will drive away moths. Sprinkled in the tracks of roaches, it will drive them away.
Further, borax will absorb unpleasant odors, and it will cause mice to look elsewhere for board and lodging.

If it fails the first time, try it again, but it rarely falls.

Robeson Getting Ready for Appearance In Shakespeare's Immortal "Othello"
French Writer Gives Interesting and Exclusive Account of Central Europe Concert Tour of Talented Artist
By HENRI DE LA TOUR
LONDON, England. — As the name of the writer discloses, the reader will readily recognize that I am French, and happily one who is yet unspoiled by the American parvenu invading our land and people who has tried to live up to the concepts of "Libertie, Egalitie and Fraternité." So being, I am without the prejudices so shocking to my people who loved with the same warmth and enthusiasm the black troops of America and our sessions during the late World War.
own colonial possessors. American black artists of the theatre have come to Europe in large numbers since the war, and their achievements have won the applause at the various European capitals and other places. To my mind none more so than the estimable and modest Mons. Poul Robeson, whom I had a pleasure of meeting in the early days of his triumphs here, and whom I have known in London, although my mission has been that of a silent and unofficial observer of the progress of this Black Hercules, whose talents know no limits.
And so on the heels of Mons. Robeson and his wife have I followed them from their last arrival from New York when they went to Central Europe, and did an intensive concert tour, singing in Roumania (Bucharest and Cernantii), where the singer, actor and athlete and his wife were invited to the royal palace for their meeting with Queen Marie and young King Michael. The Roumanian Queen and her daughter, the Queen of Greece and the Queen of Jugoslavia attended the concert at Bucharest. In Cernantii (which was Russia before the war) the Robesons enjoyed a real taste of Russia with its cold, cool and heaviness. They went through Poland, back to Vienna, where Mons. Robeson gave a concert, and in Turin. Turin was his first appearance in Dresden and in Dusseldorf. In Dresden, from which readers of this paper will recall have come the world's best china and dolls, and the opera singers attended concert.
From there they went to Prague, in Czechoslovakia, where the artist appeared in the famous Smietian Hall. The American Ambassador and the entire Diplomat accompanied and, after the Ambassador entered, the Embassy in honor of the Robesons, at which time there was a most distinguished gathering, including diplomats, princesses and other members of nobility. His excellency, the ambassador, the Robesons, the official car, a Rolls-Royce.
At the Embassy the gown worn by Madame Robeson created quite a furore, and the insistent inquiries from some of the ladies brought to her the information from Madame Robeson that the gown was an American creation, made by one Madame Minnie Sumner, an American modiste, who made it during the recent trip to New York. Previously two well-known princesses admired the creation, so much so they asked Madame Robeson the name of the Paris shop from which it was purchased, which is truly a welcome to the ability of Madame Sumner.
At the conclusion of this tour the Robesons returned to London and did an intensive tour of England, opening at the famous St. Martin's Church their spare time the talented artist and his equally talented wife were taken to the famous university and were surprised to find a number of Negro students, one of whom is Mons. Joseph, another Mons. Anita Osmuri, one of the ruling chief in southern Nigeria. On the occasion of the visit of Madame Robeson to the University of Edinburgh she was disclosed that he own a fathar school, obtained from this historic institution as an honor student nearly eighty years ago. A university man himself, Mons. Robeson during his recent tour in England received ovations from the student body Oxford and Cambridge Universities.
After the tour they went to Switzerland to make an experimental motion picture, both taking part in the production, and being the production man and his wife the leading female actress. The rest of the cast was all white. During their leisure moments the Robeson team it was great fun up in the Alps, with the snow-capped mountains all around, and Lake Geneva, in its placid beauty, in the distance below. The performance of "Emperor Jones" at the Deutsches-Kunstler Theatre in Berlin, Germany, followed, with Mons. Robeson playing the title role in the James Light, a personal friend of Mons. Robeson and the director of the Provincetown Theatre in New York. Mons. Robeson, as usual, was part of the theatrical and the notices in the Berlin newspapers were exceedingly fine. Then back to Ireland for two separate concerts, one in Dublin and one in Belfast, and here we are again.
Mons. Robeson has been rehearsing for his appearance. She spares me time with the cello, which have its premiere in London at the Globe Theatre on May 19, and coincidently a book by Madame Robeson will be returned to "The Ghestnut's" at Branch Hill. Hempstead, which is their home, Mons, and Madame Robeson were, and grown surprisingly large during their absence. A beautiful child, indeed. Mons, Charles S. Johnson, whom I will hope to mission to Liberia, dined with the Robesons in London while passing through. And so comes the end of my tale and while I hope to take with me many friends of Mons, and Mme. Robeson in their home country, for it was indeed an inspiring tour, and one which should have been inspiring people for how time to come.
Today I am returning to the World's Playground—Paris and, sincerely hope that my American friends, will come and remain with us for some time, so that the grandeur of their achievements can be shared equally as well with the people of my country, as with the people of the British nation.

Each in London After a Most Successful Concert Tue, Mr. Robeson Will Appear in "Othello" at the Globe Theatre on May 19.
IT IS SAID that he who lives by the sword shall die by the sword. In the days of my swashbuckling life, I swung the blade right and left in the world of the theatre, and when age had crept upon me I decided I had earned the right to that retirement which comes to one who fought his battles honestly, even if in vain. In the face of the encroachment of the revue form of entertainment which appeared twenty years ago as tabuloids and was taken from 185th street to be enlarged on Seventh avenue, we broke ground as the imb pressed forward, for instead we vowed a vokery grow larger and the insipidity of some of the so-called dramatic playlets winning praise at the hands moved by assenty intensified our desire to leave the way open for minds schooled in an environment superior to that which we enjoyed.
Apparently, we were not far wrong in our conclusions, for we note that the writings of Mr. Whitney and the writings of Mr. Lewis in these columns bear out the contentions of the author of the theoretical entertainment in Harlem. You will note how Mr. Whitney reaches down and comes up heavily on the ills that beset the people of the stage, while Mr. Lewis, one of the few Negroes to enjoy the full range of unbridled emotions, (Sibyl Booker) seems harder blow at the conditions by confining himself to other things.
And so to that sphere of contentment which found us during the past few weeks avidly going through the pages of "Congo Gods." "The Pedro Gorino." "Orlando." "The Son of Perdition." "Trader Horn." "Ton Tom." and a few others came that disturbing communication from a writer unwilling to forget. "Where," he asks, "is that verile pen that so courageously struck out against the patridity of a time not so long past? Seldom have I found the kind of entertainment I could really end up enjoying meaning. Harlem, no doubt, as for seem ages I have found it in the far reaches of the zone bounded by Porty-second street to Sixthtown Up Fifth avenue, around and down Eighth avenue, back to Times Square.
"I have read with a great deal of disgust the extravagant advertisements which, when not adorning the fronts of those theatres catering to Negroes, are mincingly handed to you, by agents of the management wherein all kinds of claims for the entertainment inside reminds of the barkers in the early days of Coney Island. Many have ben the hasheesh revues which they have claimed were on their way to Broadway after honoring their theatres with a appeal set, yet one of the reasons for which such a claim has been put in has made its appearance on Broadway.
"Instead of denouncing Lew Leslie for not presenting another revue, we should sympathize with him and give praise to what he has done, not only for Broadway and the Negro performer but for the yokels of Harlem, for ever since the 'birds' returned from their successful run they have

offered miniature editions of the original 'Blackbirds' in all forms. True, after one had witnessed these shows, which must include even 'Hot Chocolates', downtown, it was hard to accept them minus the many things which meant so much to their success on Broadway, but there are still enough of the populace left in Harlem who never saw them in their original settings who could find pleasure in what was left. But why the claims that they were being presented the same as on Broadway?
"Under the conditions which the house or houses are operated here it would be a physical impossibility to present these shows the same as on Broadway, for, in many cases, without the pictures, even these offerings would be something different. The motion picture of an earlier day was offered in the courtroom to believe, as it is now very evident, that the picture today is the big thing, and the revue is thrown in for good measure. The more intelligent look forward to the screening of the picture and merely tolerate the so-called 'stage presentation.
"What a world of difference was noted in the case of little Nina McKinney! In King Vidor's "Hallulah" she was, to all be desired, but when she came to us in the flesh she was but a back-linns chorus girl stepping forward to try and be something after her first day. I noticed the crowds were smaller than I have seen at other revues of less prominence, if judged by the lack of the same form of extravagant advertising given the principals."
There was more to the letter, but space will not permit a full reproduction. We leave it to Mr. Lewis to step into the breach, for it is our opinion that as we lived by the sword in an earlier day, the writer is simply trying to invigle us to return and suffer death by the same means. Call it cowardice, if you will, but we will satisfy ourselves with the consoling thought that it is the experience which comes with age and the futility of trying to criticize it, which will make one a criticism serve the same purpose. It has been said "the only of these shows—see one and you see them all. Of courses, there are exceptions, which note we make for the benefit of the bright birds who believe they have become authorities on Harlemiana from a theatrical point of view and not for the intelligent reader who will recognize the point a few seconds before the previous period.
HARLEM OPERA HOUSE
Pathos, humor, sorrow and joy are the four meeds that will move the temperamentally inclined that visit the Harlem Opera House during the run of the musical drama, "She Couldn't Say No." Winnie Lightner, co-star with Janet Gaynor in "Sunny Side Up," plays the leading role as Winnie Cayse, a creecking blonde singer in underwinter night club known as the Rizzy Club. Her hair-raising escapes and heart-gripping scenes with her lover, Jerry Cayse, in evading the threat of Big, John Berman, furnish many thrills and tensions. Much comment is current on this latest musical drama. An added autumn all-in-one an all-talking starring jack Perlin in "Beyond the Rio Grande."

Our Show Girls
BY S. TUTT WHITNEY.
THEY'RE the most beautiful in the world. Right here in Harlem. And there is a beautiful bouquet of them outside of Harlem. I hold that my years in the theatrical business have made me something of a connoisseur in show girl pulchritude. Allow me half a day and I will pick a dozen from our show girls right here in Harlem that the beauty experts of the work with them. I with them. Right or wrong. I am with them. I may not always condeone some of the things they do, but no matter how wrong they are, they are more nearly right than the men who prey upon them.
Men, we must respect and protect our show girls! It has been my privilege and honor to know and associate with some of the finest girls in every walk of life, and our show girls do not suffer from comparison with the girls in any other business or profession. Our girls are continually in the spot-light and every little delinquency of which they may be guilty is exaggerated and magnified. They are subjected to more temptations than girls in any other walt-life, and the marvel to me that any of them escape examination. The standard of our theatrical profession can be higher than the standard of our girls. Girls, it is up to me to make ours the outstanding one of all professions. You are not lacking in wisdom and intelligence, and should not be deficient in discretion and discernment.
Choose wisely your associates. Make no attachments that will endanger your reputations or that will not in some wise prove beneficial to you and promote your future. You are wise enough to differentiate between gold and tinseel; why choose the tinseel? Don't be afraid of flippery and masculine blandishness. When the devil wished to accomplish the undoing of Marguerite, he handed her a string of pearls and a mirror. Now he hands his Marguerites a sweet line of talk, a new dress, a fur coat or an automobile ride.
Selling the female human is one of the oldest businesses in the world, and it has never proven stamatically properly spiritually beneficial. It is not so much what you do as it is how, when and where you do it that counts for or against you.
The class of man that will stand you up on a street corner or in a public place and interject his conversation with a lurid assortment of profanity and vulgarity does not respect you. Neither does the other. When you ask him what he is the kind that will attract the attention of all in a poolroom or gin mill to tell them what he said to "that broad" and what "the broad" said to him. He is of the kind that will broadcast all your indiscretions in an exaggerated way after you have given him your face and giving out the impression that he thinks everything you say or do is cute and smart.
This is not a moral preachment. I can stand considerable improvement along that line. It is just a commonsense talk from one who has always tried to be and will continue to try to be your friend and assistant, and also your advisor, if you wish it. Your physical beauty, charm and talent are your assets. Place the highest value upon them. A commonplace thing is without much value. We men, with few exceptions, are selfish, vain, conceited, lackesses we are vain, on hold as the task of being on brow. No matter how light we weigh in the social scale, we think we carry enough weight to give us license to approach the finest woman. We want a woman for ourselves and for ourselves only, no matter how generously we dispense our favors among other women. A woman loses value in our estimation with every new masculine attachment she forms. We play

The Riverhead News of Riverhead, L. I., carried the following interesting account, recently which discloses that one of the old popular performers in the person of Andrew Copeland still possesses the powers of his entertaining art which made him quite an attraction in the early days of Harlem's theatrical growth, when select audiences demanded more than mere buffoonery at the hands of those destitute from them from the stage. Says the News:
"The vaudeville entertainment and dance given by Elliot Jamison at the Quogue Inn, under the direction of Andrew A. Copeland, a guest there, and who for many years has been a biggest thing of the sort ever attempted in Suffolk County, it is reported, Mr. Copeland himself being chiefly responsible for the success of the affair, for which he was warmly applauded as the noted Jack Johnston, as the maestra, the headliners for the occasion.
"Copeland kept everybody in merriment with his work as announcer as well as by his clever songs and dances, and four people, here, knew of this man's standing or ability until this occasion. It is recalled, however, that he was once given a gold-headed cape by King Edward when he appeared in the exhibition. "More than 700 people attended the affair. They arrived in exactly 407 cars, all parked together, and presenting an unusual sight here. Johnson brought with him some clever one-line dance, and also put six-round exhibition bout. After the show many stayed to eat fried chicken and to dance."

By AL HUGHES.
PARIS--Jack Walker, colored Italian, was disqualified in a bout with A Pegazzano for the middleweight championship of Europe. The first round gave promise of an interesting combat, but in the second round, after felting with his left, Walker landed a low right uppercut in the region of the abdomen. Pegazzano dropped to his knees and made an attempt to rise, but could not get his hands on the floor, and finally collapsed. The three judges at once gave the decision to Pegazzano. He attempted to hold a pretty stiff admission price, at once raised a bowt at such a short run for their money. In the meantime Pegazzano had recovered, whereupon Jeff Dickson, the promoter, and then struck an enchanting blow on a French boxing rules, a fighter cannot engage in two bouts on the same evening.
Walker once held the middleweight championship of Europe. The weight of both fighters was announced in last, which is above the middleweight limit.
PARIS—Eddie South and his Alabamians have returned to Paris, after playing in Vienna, Budapest, Barcelona and St. Jean de Luz. The same group of French violinists, Rochelle Burke, drums; Arthur Gibbs, pianist; W. C. King, clarinet; and Sterling B. Canney, basso. They are now playing at Chez Florence.
Eugene Newton's night club on the Rue Pontine was scheduled to open on May 2.

AT LOEW'S VICTORIA
When talking pictures were in the minds of scientists and the joke of those who professed to know all about the future of the silent screen, there were two kiddies whose names were known to millions of film fans. Next to Mary Pickford, Jackie Coogan and possibly one or two other favorites, the names of Jane and Katherine Lee were as well known to picture patrons as the name of Genet, the inventor of the motion picture. But, as might be expected from two bright youngsters who had made names for themselves before they were out of their baby clothes, Jane and Katherine have gone "tattle," too. Not on the great extent as yet. They did make a few short subjects, but that was between engagements in vaudeville. Instead of appearing before millions in sound or silent pictures, they are now known to the public. Their present form of entertainment is a condensed musical, dancing, and

SKETCH BOOK
BY THEOPHILLUS LEWIS
My lover has taken himself away.
With his large brown hands he broke
The chain that bound us to
That madness—
With his large bare hands he swept away
All that was left of yesterday.
And he took the sweetness that was part
Of the music and rhythm that brimmed my hea
And ieft a terrifying vale
Where sorrow sits so wan and pale
And plays a sad piano—
Plays strange discordant woes
That drip purples and indigoes
And reek of another madness.
With his large bare hands he swept away
All that was left of yesterday.
And he took the sweetness that was part
Of the music and rhythm that brimmed my heart—
And I left so,
Where sorrow sills so wan and pale
And plays a sad piano—
Plays strange discordant woes
That drip purples and indigoes
And reek of another madness.
A madness that hangs on a precipice,
Frantically edging the blind abyss
Of broken raptures and hunger vague—
And my heart is a last bewildered stag
On a frosted ledge between two twilights.
My lover has taken himself away,
Strange chords and a pain in my throat—
My lover has taken my song away,
And the river is a deep blue note.

MY favorite barber shop is the one owned by John McCargo in 145th street. I have favored (ahem) the place with my patron since the distant days when the center of New York was downstairs. The barber Marshall's was the population night life. In those days McCargo's, then shop followed the trend of population to Harlem first located on Lenox avenue, near 131st street. As a result, I continued to flow north the barber shop, and the last time to its present location, northbound thoroughfare of North Harlem.
I like McCargo's shop for more reasons than one. In the first place it's cheap. The most I can afford to pay for a haircut is fifty cents, and if I should go to a shop where they charge that much for service I could not tip the barber. McCargo is a insecure is a quarter, which enables a barber a twenty-five-cent shop makes the give look like a big somebody, and that a grand and glorious tecting I like to enjoy now and then.
Another thing about the place that appeals to me is its atmosphere. When the shop was downtown it was the rendezvous of a number of gay guitar pluckers, hilarious. Napoleonic checker pluckers did not follow the shop by vocal music, supplied by the barbers, who give hymns the call shearing, the boys were bearing down on soul-stirring numbers of the Methodist hymnal, and did not follow the style of speech extolled in ecstasy. A lively living over worldliness. Presently the champion of true religion began to speak in parables and one story led to another until the talk was far from religion, and somebody told the one about the Pullman porter and the conductor's girl. I can't tell that one here, but here's another one also said, as good. In one of the Southern States an outlander said, it is against the thief's territory. The porter, making his first trip deprived of his usual gratuities he would cut down on the service rendered of the passengers. Accordingly he "forget" to call for the shoes which a majority of the passengers requested him while they slept. At the end of the porter in charge of the service had made cut.
"Borsten," the bright boy from the North replied. "But I ain't got no kick coming. I cut down on the service. For one thing, I forgot to shine any shoes."
"What! You didn't shine any shoes?" the other porter exclaimed. "Man, that's where the money was." He then proceeded to explain: "You see it's against the law to tip in this state, but it ain't against the law to find money in shoes. I found $3.75 in the shoes in my car."
THINGS to rave about: Oscar DePriest's Baltimore speech as reported in Afro-American, and, incidentally, the intelligently independent editorial policy of said Alto. The double page spread of the exodus史料 of Marc Connelly's "The Green Pastures" in current Vanity Fair. The cool sweet air of Seventh avenue is a cool in the morning. Louis Armstrong singing "When You're Smiling." The N. A. A. C. P. light to keep Judge Parker's buttocks off the Supreme Court bench. The Bandbox at 4:50 a.m. Sunday morning. And, with reservations, Eugene Gordon's "Thirteen Most Interesting Negroes."
My squawk against Mr. Gordon's vivification of the thirteen "most interesting" that he fails to include himself. Without Gordon's own English AS, faultless tux. Sherlock Holmes pipe and world-weary mannerisms his team is like an all-star baseball nine compiled by Babe Ruth, with the big Bam himself not included.

Without being asked I am telling the world that this column is pro-Yankee and anti-Asian mer afternoons when I'm minus. It wants to buy a new hat, and this hat which is precisely every afternoon, outdoor sport is watching the scoreboard in front of Seventh avenue poolrooms.

ALTHOUGH my opinion on the future of women in journalism has been sought by an earnest seeker after wisdom, nobody has as yet inquired where I stand on the perennial Yankee-Giant baseball controversy. Without being asked I am telling the indifferent world that this column is pro-Yankee and anti-Giant. On summer afternoons when I'm minus fifty cents to pay a bleacher seat in a ball park, which precludes the scoreboard in front of one of the Seventh avenue poolrooms. My prediction for the 1930 season is, American League: Cleveland 1st, Athletics 2d, Yankees 3d. National League: Giants first—from the bottom.

Henderson and Andrade Score
Fletcher Henderson and his Roseland Orchestra drew a large crowd to the Renaissance Casino just Sunday afternoon to hear him do a jazz battle with Vernon Andrade. Renaissance orchestra and Florence showcased that he had lost none of his charas as a master musician, but the crowd like Vernon just as well. He was the only known orchestra at these Sunday afternoon supper dances.

ETHEL WATERS TO PLAY AT THE LAFAYETTE Clarence Muse Also at Same House in Latest Picture
Ethel Waters Will Play Here
To Share Spotlight With Latest Muse Picture at the Lafayette
As predicted in these columns some time ago, Ethel Waters is celebrating her return from her triumphs in Europe by appearing at the Lafayette Theatre in what promised to be a major success, which the noted star has yet appeared. This revue is entitled "Jazzland in 1930." Not content with presenting the greatest musical achievement of the management of the Lafayette Theatre has also arranged to present on the same program the great colored dramatic and musical assurance in his own talking sensation, "A Royal Romance."
Ethel Waters is now undoubtedly at her best. She left for Europe some months after her operation on her throat by a noted Viennese surgeon. The operation was entirely successful and brought back her voice with a fullness which she has never before enjoyed. A tour of the principal cities of Europe then followed and finally her return to this country. She was also the Lafayette Theatre was immediately arranged. "Jazzland in 1930" is said to be specially built around Miss Waters. She will have a private concert in Jason Mason, Gallie De Gaston, Paulis and McCormack Grace Rector, the 5 Chocolate Bon Bons, the Harmony Four, Addison Carson's famous dancing cheers and
"A Royal Romance," Clarence Muse's first starring vehicle, is said to be as delightful and entrenching a mystery drama as has been produced this season. Muse's musical, justifiably known as the spectacular, it is said, on good authority, that he was responsible for the making of "Hearts in Dixie." In which he had the leading dramatic role. Since that time he has been employed in the making of wood and canvas in a talent of modeling, employing colored and finally was given the leading role in "A Royal Romance."
Muse was one of the original Lafayette dramatic players and his performance of "The King Will Never be forgotten" by those who had the pleasure of seeing him both during the time when the dramatic stock company were presenting their plays at the Lafayette Theatre and later when the present policy was insisted to occasionally incorporate "dramatic hits" with the musical comedy program.
We Go to Church
REV. A. C. GARNER threw the doors of Grace Congregational Church, at 308 West 139th street, wide open late last Sunday afternoon, and the theatre walked in and was made welcome. It is seen that the Rev. Garner's religion and Christianity is broad, deep, charitable and tolerant enough to include even the theatre. We have become accustomed to being considered outside the pale of salvation; I don't know why, but that is where the religion and Christianity is most of our ministers accepted us.
I can remember receiving but two direct invitations for our companies to attend church services in all the years that Homer and I plotted theatrical companies up and down the road. In white theatres there are always two or three invitations to actors to attend services at one or two of the leading churches of the city. But I have yet to see a theatre, of this kind in the theatre, our churches leap it to the cabarats, gin masters dance halls to entertain us and then condemn us for accepting the invitations.
But not all ministers are narrow. Some of them, like Rev. Garner, have been vaccinated with Christianity deep enough for it to take and make them charitable and tolerant, sympathetic and understanding.
Dr. P. O'Connell never could be made to condemn our boys and girls because they made their living by

Archdeacon Phillips, formerly of the Church of the Crucifixion at Philadelphia, permitted us to store on summer, permitted equipment in the church of his church. He even permitted me to rehearse one of my shows in his parish building. He has even rendered us assistance when we needed it badly to continue our road tour. I have always revered Dr. Phillips and Dr. O'Connell as two of the most sincere, upright, Christian gentlemen it has been my honor to know. They have helped me to keep my hold on Christianity.

AT THE ALHAMBRA
Tim Moore, in the opinion of many people, is the best comedian on the stage today. Whether he is giving him a royal welcome, and the "big boy" is showing them how he won the hearts of Broadway and Farts. Tim Weeks's reuve, so named because of Tim Moore's favorite expression, George Crawford and Crackshot Hackley are fellow conspirators in the funny situation of George W. Cooper, in his ill-fitted way, them into all sorts of difficulties. Maracet Simms, the lovely "Hot Chocolates star," is the best Brown of singing and dancing. Honors as solo singers are taken by James A. Lillard, popular robust baritone, and a charming soprano, Regina Spain, who is the most welcome acquisition. "That Bad Boy," a comedy-drama, affords little Artie Cain a wonderful opportunity as a kid full of mischief, and she both looks and plays it to the
Bessie Smith, in her classic picture, "St. Louis Blues," is presented in answer to general public demand. Her gorgeous voice and suspense are to the utmost. Ralph Ince and Alen Pringle are the stars of the powerful talk, "Wall Street," dealing with the ruin of a money king, and how his loss of millions in the stock market leads to his buoy, love.
The Alhambra Next Week
Peg Bates, who with Snake Hips brought to "Blackhairs" its great reputation for unique dancing, comes to the Alhambra Theatre next Monday for one week. No one is more popular in Harlem than jovial Peg Bates. He is the man who engaged Tim Moore for second and final week, and he will have all new laugh-nacs for the Peg Bates Revue, and a large supporting cast.
"The Man Hunt" will be a tense drama, revealing how fooly accuses can be when the quick wit and courage of the girl who loves him.
Jules Bledsoe, star of Ziegerfeld's "Showbant", will be heard and seen in his new production, "On the Leaves," a blend of paths, fun and great singing, with wild young dare-devils will add excitement to the program in "The Sophomore," an all-talking college picture.

That Singing Contest
The singing contest at the Florence Mills Theatrical Association last Sunday night was a huge success. Enough blue notes were released to run through Monday and the contest was won by Leigh Whipner, the voiceless wonder. Billy Demont was second choice, and "Tony, the Wop" came in for third money, but the money ran out out before it reached Tony. There were many dissenting votes from the audience present, among these being our two outstanding serbes, critics and columnists, George Schuyler and Theophilus Lewis, but Leigh Whipner was the self-appointed judge, and his decision had to stand. J Homer Tutt was the winner, his accomplice, Sidney Easton, had to be pried from the piano stool.
Later, Mr. Glover and Mr. Easton were disqualified because they injected dance steps in their performance. Porter Granger was eliminated because of his cane, the judge ruling that it was an instrument of intimidation. Big George Lee and Franklin Carr pleaded bad voles and those presides were in perfect agreement with them. I went home happy.

AT THE LAFAYETTE
One of the most famous of colored band leaders and his band are holding forth at the Lafayette Theatre this week, brining joy to the crowd. This is the debut of Duke Ellington. Even if Duke were not at the Lafayette Theatre this week the show would still be good, but his presence there makes the stage entertainment more appealing, as the feature of Clarence Robinson's "Pepper Pot Revue." Eddie Green, Ted Blackmon, Celeste Jones, John La Rue, Cora La Rue, Henry Wessels, Milford Dixon and other well-known entertainers. The usual big photoplay program is being presented together with the "Pepper Pot Revue." The feature is "The Cohens and Kellys in Scotland," a talking picture crammed with music, George George, Vera Murray, Kate Price and Vera Gordon.

The spectacular, epic of sensational herolism and rare courage, The Lost Zeppelin, which is the first all-air drama of this type to reach the screen, will be at the Roosevelt Saturday, Sunday and Monday, May 10, 11 and 12.

Biblical Drama Presented at Bethany Baptist Church
"Ruth," a beautiful biblical drama in three acts, was most creditably presented at Bethany Baptist Church, Sumner avenue and Decatur street, Brooklyn, on Thursday evening last under the auspices of the Ladies Senior Usher Board. The play opened up with a famine when Bethany became a certain family to flee their country and while in their adopted land, their two sons got married and died soon afterwards, leaving two young ladies. By this time heard that there was a bounteous harvest in her native land and she decided to return, but requested Ruth refused to go, and pledged herself to stay with the mother-in-law. They returned and while there Ruth won a very wealthy farmer, Boaz. She most definitely acted that it evoked a keen interest of the large and appreciative audience. Miss Umer Smith, who played the part of Ruth, went through most of the remarkable ease and she made a very remarkable impression. Another person whose contribution was greatly responsible for the success of Charles Stokes who served as director.
The characters were Louis Cabbell, Stanley Jones, Loney Johnson, Samuel Lomax, Samuel Morris, Mrs. Madeline Woodson, Miss Cotella De Vills and Miss Umer Smith. The characters were unusually attractive and portrayed in a vivid manner the story of this biblical drama.

The London concerts are under the patronage of the American Ambassador, Charles Gates Dawes.
Johnson Studio Gives Recital
The tenth annual recital of the David Johnson Music Studio was heard by a large and appreciative audience Friday evening at St. Mark's Hall. For the most part the pupils showed talent and their work proved to be of considerable credit to the school. The orchestra, which played "Light Cavalry and "Poet and Peasant," by Suppe; "Berceuse," by Godard, and "The First Movement of the Number Eight Concerto," by Rode, with Luther Lipsett, was good, especially in the string and wood-wind sections; but the brass section in many instances proved a handicap.
Some of the outstanding soloists were Austin Hall, who played "Ai; and Varle Number Six," by Dancer; Evelyn Parker, who played "Rondo," by Seltz; Grisela Harewood, who played "Bach's Minuet," Dett's "Juba Dance" and Moskowski's "Air de Ballet"; Steabagg's six-hand "Bolere" played on the piano by Viola Coker, May Boyce and Maud Turner; Raymond Waters, who played "Humoreske," by Dvorak, and "Perpetuum Mobile," by Dohm; Hazel Waters, who played on the piano the first movement of Clementi's "Sonatina," Ketter's "Gobilins" and Kern's "Toe Spinning"; Mae Boyce, who played "Gavotte," by Bach, and "Gypsy Marks" by Haydn; Dorothy Marks who played the "Violin Concert Number Four," by Seltz; and Viola Coker, who played the "Fifth Nocturne" by Laybach, "Solfeggio," by Bach, and "Molto Vivace," by Coleridge-Taylor.
The string quartet—Dorothy Marks. Edina Coker, Raymond Waters and Austin Hall—who won first place in the district contest of the New York Music Week Association, played spirituals. David Johnson, Jr., who has won a gold medal for his ability as a violinist and who is a scholarship pupil of the Institute of Musical Art, played with finish De Beriot's "Concerto" and "Praeludium und Allegro" by Puquani-Kreisler.
Books on Music

This was the first time Verdí's "Alda" has ever been staged on such an elaborate scale by a Negro company. He enriched and costumes used in the regular performance of the Metropolitan Opera company gave this production a magnificent background.
The score of the opera was played by a hundred-piece symphony orchestra, white, under the direction of Prof. Drury.

To Feature Remote Control
Few technical developments are expected to appear in 1330 receiving sets, advanced reports, reports on the potential and outstanding changes will be made in new models. However, it is learned that several set makers are contemplating the development of a controlling device in standard sets this year. It is safe to predict that there will be between six to ten standard sets that will be available with this tuning device, and that the features will in appearance be identical to other receivers, the only addition being a very small cable that runs from the set to a small control unit, which is of the same size as this unit is less than an inch and a half in height and six inches in the biggest dimension. Speaking generally, a remote control unit, in addition to a volume control unit, a volume control and an "on" and "off" switch, so that it is possible to operate the set practically the same as if manual tuning were employed. The controlling types of remote control devices, one that selects some six or ten favorite stations, and the other a remote control device which will tune every station on the set, are more being tuned in the regular feature.
A feature of one of the devices is that the remote control kit is available separately. It may be attached to any standard make receiver today.
Central Agency
Several large broadcast sponsors are considering the formation of a central advertising agency to plan and execute the advertising efforts they will own this organization and will not be forced to pay the advertising agencies a commission as they now do. They point to the fact that when a large corporation advertsing agencies handled them, but later a central agency was formed, specializing in billboard advertising. The program sponsors feel that there is a need for the establishment of effort in the broadcasting business today, and that a central bureau with experts can handle the program far more economically. It is reported that ten large advertisers are working on

James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., now on a year's hold Fund, will speak over the radio at 11:30 a. m. from WNYC on the subject, "The Negro in Politics."
Quartet Pictures Slaves
George Whitefield Chadwick's musical illustration of the conflicting mooda of the Old American Negro slaves is his quartet. The American Pro-Art String Quartet will interpret over WEAF Sunday afternoon at 12:30 o'clock.
It is a free intimation of, and a re-mentation upon, the idiom of Negro music. The ultimate product is a melody-like folk-song cast and a melodic feeling.
Negro Achievement Hour
The Negro Achievement Hour, to be broadcast over Station WRNY, from the studio of the Harlem Broadcasting Corporation, tomorrow at 10:30 p. m., will present the Negro Achievement Quartet and pupilo of the David H. Johnson Studio who won first place in the district contest of the New York Music Week Association. They were Elwin Coker, Dorothy Marks, Raymond Waters and Austin Hall, Wilfred Loveland, violinist, will also appear.
DRAMA
DRAMA
An enthusiastic audience Thursday evening greeted the performance of a three-act play, "A Southern Cinderella," by the St. James Drama Club at the St. James Presbyterian Church, 11st street and St. Nicholas avenue.
Against a background of Southern life, the action of this charming little play was laid. All of the action transpires in Charteris Hall, the seat of the Charteris family, and there is a good bit of controversy over the burning of a will, but the events lead to a happy climax.
Composed exclusively of a female cast, a list of the characters and those who depicted them follows: "Madame Charteris," Ruth Heyward; "Enb Bellamy," Murielle Hendrique; "Rose Winterberry," a social worker, by Irene Balley; "Johnnie Bell-Rodolph," Thelma Hall; "Katherine Hawke," Carrabelle Jefferson; "Caroline Hawke," Bertha Talley, and "Mammy Judy Johnson," Ada Finnie. While the efforts of the entire cast were excellent, the work of Miss Finnie in the comedy role of the piece was especially good. The club is under the direction of Richard B. Harrison, dramatist reader, and Miss Sidle E. Stockton.-T. T. F.

Ten years ago he went to London to study dramatic art and during that time he gave numerous recitals, a most noteworthy one being on Roland Hayes' program of Whitefield's Central Mission in 1921. Mr. Penney, before going to London, studied here privately with Franklin Sargent, white, of the American Academy of Art.
The Human Foot
In order to understand the importance of the human foot to the body, you must study its anatomy. This you can easily do by consulting any recognized text book on the subject. But, in order to appreciate the real beauty and worth of this member of our anatomy, you must see it dissected into its component parts.
When you remove the skin, and examine it with the unaided eye, you find that this delicate but very important organ of the body is covered with a tough membrane varying in thickness from one-eighth to one-quarter of an inch on the sole of the foot and much higher on the dorsum or top. It is divided roughly into three parts, the outer part called epidermis (sometimes called cuticle) and the inner part, called derma, true skin or corium or cutis rea.
The true skin is very vascular and has embedded and extended beneath other organs, such as sensitive paddleae, hair follicles, sweat and oil glands. The hair and nails are modified forms of the epidermis and are known as appendages of the skin.
Its main function is to protect the underlying structures, such as blood vessels, skin pores, and muscles, injury, pain, and infection. Keeping this in mind, you will be able to understand why corns, callus and many other disagreeable conditions happen to the foot that make life so unpleasant for many of us.
The skin also takes an important part in keeping the foot warm. It takes part in excretions (such as sweat) a functional disturbance of which very often causes uncomfortable. It contains nerves which act as sense organ—such, palm, finger and toe senses.
A thorough knowledge of the skin and its functions is absolutely necessary in the maintenance of foot health and comfort.

WRITE this article with the hope that these remarks may be a means of bringing about a more understanding relationship between the physician and the public. Such common remarks as Dr. So-and-So killed my baby. If I hadn't called in Dr. X I would have been dead. I went to Dr. Y and he made me worse. Since Dr. M, took out my tonsils I haven't been able to see properly, etc—all these remarks make me believe that the average person is either very ignorant about things medical, or he or she is entirely out of sympathy with the efforts doctors make in the treatment of the sick.
A physician must be able to tell on the case visit everything about the case and just when the patient will be able to return to work, according to some people. This is not always possible. Patients have been in some of the best hospitals in this city for weeks at a time without a definite diagnosis of their condition, but the neighborhood doctor knows this is the case to the diagnosis of a case under his care, is soon relegated to the fury of the gods.
in mind. Some cases do warrant immediate attention at night and should be seen. If your patient for a great many reasons, is unable to come, the associate whom he will send should be satisfactory in an emergency. If your family doctor sees that you get a doctor in hurry when he is unable to come he is still rendering good service. Do not tell all medical doctors at once but wait for the one who promised to come. Many a doctor
In almost every instance of a death, someone somewhere will find some reason for blaming the attending physician, who, in all probability, will be doing the very best he could. Patients have been sick for several days sometimes and suddenly decide to call a doctor and expect him to come immediately. Never do they stop to think that the doctor is the office or that other patients may have sent in calls before theirs.
If, after one visit, the patient does grow rapidly better, a new man is called in with the feeling that the first doctor was entirely inefficient. Signs and symptoms of disease change, so that one's opinion of a case may sometimes have to be changed. In many cases this is a risky thing to do, since it is often difficult to convince those concerned that these things do heppen.
The doctor like any other individual needs rest, but little consideration is given him in this regard. Many a night call could be avoided if more people would bear this
Dental Talks
By
Roy C. Proctor.
D. D. S.
BILL HAY, one of the most popular radio announcers in the country today, who is heard on the program with Amos n' Andy of The Fresh Air Taxicab Company of America, Incorporated, says, "Use Pepesidon twice a day and see your dentist at least twice a year." Those of us who do not take his advice do not realize its importance until its toothache drives us and our dentist. And then very likely we must submit to one or more extractions and other dental treatment. For many such treatment is unpleasant, to say the least, and it might have been avoided! Few of us know that Teddy Roosevelt, the hero of the Spanish-American War, a fearless fighter on the battlefield and in politics, perhaps the only man to buck the "machine" and win the presidency, was thoroughly licked by a comparatively large attack as well. The rheumatism which caused his death was traced to focal infection from a tooth.
I cannot improve on Bill Hay with Pepsentod's slogan, but I can back him up and say if a dentist has not given you a clean bill of dental health within the last five or six months, make an appointment with one at once and do not suffer from foul smells. If you give a dentist a trial, I am sure you will not be, as Andy says, "regusted."

in mind. Some cases do warrant immediate attention at night and should be seen. If your physician, for a great many reasons, is unable to come, the associate whom he will send should be satisfactory in an emergency. If your family doctor sees that you get a doctor in a hurry when he is unable to come, he is still rendering good service. He will attend medical doctors at once, but wait for a doctor who has promised to come. Many a doctor has gone out of a warm bed to find no response or even common courtesy on a case where he was not the first one to arrive.
All physicians are required to spend many years acquiring the fundamentals of a medical education, and even after years of experience the profession feels that it still has much to learn. On the other hand, all physicians know that friends and friends profess know more about a given case than the physician in charge. Don't interfere with the conduct of a case unless the man in charge has been consulted. Many an acute abdomen has been made worse by this sort of medding.
Until the public realizes that the treatment of disease is no easy task, and that co-operation and teamwork are necessary in giving your physician to give the very best within him, so long will these unpleasant experiences last.

That, she said. The Amsterdam news at her home, 230 West, 150th Street, Sunday night. The tenting of fire service for cleaning the windows of windows from the inside of a building. The horror of a helpless body diving to doom was credited for the invention which eliminates all danger when owing washing and assumes the task of cleaning in simple, but revolution-enabled.
Mrs. Scharschmidt received a patient for her invention last August through the efforts of her attorney, James S. Watson, 240 Broadway. Three years she declared, were spent in perfecting the mechanism.
Demonstrates Invention.
Very obligating, Mrs. Scharschmidt gave a demonstration of the safety window as her invention is made and the simplicity of it was once apparent. It consists of a small metal square into which is inserted a mat which has been moistened with a solution of water and ammonia. To each side of, this square is attached a six-foot strip of webbing, by which the interior is operated in the house. The mat are removable and a dry insert is inserted to give the window original polish.
A dressmaker by trade, Mrs Scharadmidt first conceived the necessity for such an invention while sewing in lofty apartments downtown among her wealthy clientele. "Many of my patrons," she said, "lived on the upper floor of brick and apartment house. Often while sewing, I would watch the men dressing the outside windows, perched dangerously on the sill. It was the desire to do something for these men that started me to work and which resulted in my little invention."
Educated in City.
A native of Providence, R. I., Mrs Scharadmidt received her education in the Brooklyn schools and has lived most of her life in New York. She is interested in sciences and her interest are to be seen in museums which hang through-out her home.
With her patent secured, the manufacture and sale of the window cleaner on a large scale has just been started by Mrs. Scharschmidt, with the opening of an office at 147 Broadway. Associated with nen in the business is her husband, Clarence Scharschmidt.

Hospital Conducting Campaign for Funds
Harlem organizations — religious, fraternal, civic and social—are being appealed to for funds for International Hospital, in a letter sent out by William M. Kelley, a member of the hospital committee, last week. Originally started as a private institution, the committee now responsible for the hospital's operation is doing so for the sole benefit of the public.
The present campaign is for funds with which to meet pressing obligation and put the finances of the institution in shape preparatory to a campaign for a quarter of a million dollar campaign this fall.
Not only have the organizations been asked to make donations to the hospital, but another novel method of assisting that has been invited is the payment in advance for service for members of the assisting organizations.
The present hospital committee is composed of the following persons: Messrs. A. A. Austin, Mr. Kelley, John E. Nail, Attorneys Hubert T. Delany and Alan L. Dingle; Dr. George E. Haynes and the Rev. A. Chayton Powell. The members are: Walter Gray Crump, M.D., surgeon-in-chief of Broad Street Hospital, and Drs. May E. Chinn, John A. Davis, Rudolph Fisher, Leo Fitz Neason, Godfrey Nurse, Oma H. Price, E. P. Roberts.

Jesse Sees Census As Boon to Harlem
Giving Information Will Pave Way to Congress Seat, He Says
"Civic pride alone should force every resident of Harlem to comply readily with the census demands. The reapportionment of Congressional districts is to be based on population at the close of the 1930 census and with a complete census record Harlem will be assured of getting a census account of its own."
This was the declaration made Thursday by George N. Jese, white, supervisor of the census in the Twenty-fourth district, in an interview with The Amsterdam News. Harlem has been slow in responding to the census takers, Mr. Jesse said at his headquarters. In the last second, second census takers, the evaders will be punished if they do not give the desired information.
"Many dodgers of the census," said Mr. Jesse, "thought that all efforts to locate them would cease with the first of May. This idea is absolutely untrue and the census will continue until it is complete."
Under the direction of Mr. Jesse, three special investigators began the work Monday of checking the reports of the enumerators. Of the result of this investigation, Mr. Jesse said: "Those who have had the chance and not given information necessary will be summoned before the District Attorney to explain their delinquency." The delay in obtaining this census was confined only to New York, the supervisor maintained, but has been true throughout the entire country. This has been true, he said, because of the reluctance of the people to answer certain questions.
The question to which most persons questioned was "Do you own a radio?" Mr. Jesse asserted. Many believed, he said, that the government contemplated a tax on radios. This question should be clarified and purpose of this question is to determine approximately how many individuals may be reached by radio. The Federal Government, he explained, regularly broadcasts information of importance over the radio. "All information given," Mr. Jesse said, is strictly confidential and if damage is caused, it is used by the individual; every right-thinking person should co-operate with the enumerators and make this census complete."
Persons who have not received schedules for the census, that is, those who perhaps were absent from home when the enumerators called, obtain them by calling at Mr. Jesse office, 11 West Forty-second street.

PROOF that CARD Helps Women
"I SUFFERED so much last spring with my right side, severe pains and a weakness in my back," says Mrs. Cora Smith, 422 Pelham St., Montgomery, Ala. "At times it seemed I could not stand it. When I would have to stand on my feet the pain was very bad. I would get so weak I knew I must take something. I had heard so much of Cardui I decided to try it. After taking two bottles, I felt better. I didn't suffer quite so much. I kept on taking Cardui, and after six bottles, I felt all right. I can highly recommend Cardui."

A. M. E. Zion Church School Convention Expects Five Thousand
CHICAGO, May 5- The program of the General Church School Convention of the African M. E. Zion Church, to be held at Detroit, Mich. August 5-11, will be a distinct departure in denominational programs, according to a release today by the religious education department headquarters in this city. The major emphasis of the convention will be a study and interpretation of factual data concerning human needs and corresponding religious implications. Such problems as health, friendship, sex, parenthood and family life, citizenship, recreation, economic and vocational activities will be presented by specialists.

This feature, it is predicted, will create a sensation within the denomination and a probable clash in the convention between conservatives and liberals, because several of the delicate problems to be discussed the attempt to project the denomination into suspenseful social adventures. It is expected that church architecture and reckless expenditure for church buildings will also provoke much discussion. A thousand delegates are expected, reponsible almost every State, Africa and West Indies. This convention is the quadrennial meeting of all Sunday School, Christian Endeavor and other educational agencies of the African M. E. Zion Church, the second largest methodist body in America. It is the largest denomination in America, the most denomination, 2,000 having attended the previous session at Washington, D. G. in 1926.

Just about two years ago, I was sick and nervous," writes Mrs. Gertrude Dickey, 449 Abercorn St., Savannah, Ga. "I was so weak I did not feel like doing my work. I dragged around. A friend told me of Cardui. I took three bottles, and there was a great improvement in my condition. I grew better and stronger than I had been in a long time."
"DURING my last year in high school, I felt very weak and run-down," writes Miss Margaret Burris, 802 E. Vine Ave., Knoxville, Tenn. "Several of my friends told me about Cardui and suggested that I try it. When I went to college I weighed 95 pounds, so I decided to try

Cardui, and when the school year was up I weighed 130 pounds. I would advise any person who is nervous, weak and in a run-down condition to take Cardui, for I am sure it will do them good. After taking Cardui, I am not nervous any more, and I am in the best of health."
"I FOUND myself very weak," writes Miss Mattie Knox, 620 Stephens St., Memphis, Tenn. "My back ached. I was always tired and did not feel well enough to enjoy pleasures as I should. A friend of mine suggested that I try Cardui, which I did, and it helped me so much that I am glad to recommend it to others. I have told several of my friends about it. Some of them have taken three or four bottles of Cardui. My mother also has taken it and found it was a wonderful tonic."
"BEFORE taking Cardui, I was very nervous," writes Mrs. Leah C. Scales, 1404 Fourteenth Ave., Nashville, Tenn. "I was weak and rundown, having severe headaches constantly and very irregular. I could not stand on my feet to do my work. After taking Cardui, I was very much better. I feel entirely different. I can stand on my feet for hours to do my work. It is wonderful."

Attorney James T. Carter, former grand treasurer and one of the men named in the application for a permanent injunction against the Virginia lodge, acted as attorney for his side, and Perry W. Howard, grand legal adviser, appeared for the grand lodge, assisted by Judge William C. Hueston of Gary, Ind. Present, also, were Henry S. Warner, grand treasurer of New York, and James C. Kelly, grand secretary of Birmingham, Al. Mrs. J. Finley Wilson, wife of the grand exalted ruler, was also in court as a spectator. George E. Bates, former grand secretary, of Orange, N. J. was the only witness for the J. Wann and the grand exalted ruler was the sole witness for the grand lodge. Bates was on the stand for one hour, during which he was examined by Attorneys Carter and Howard. The former grand secretary said that Williams Lodge members merely wished to do what had been suggested at a previous grand lodge session.
Attorney Howard branded both Carter and Bates as "soreheads," declaring that the action was being taken only because they had been defeated for their respective offices. It was also indicated that the Virginians had already formed a grand lodge, with W. S. Shivers of Smithfield, Va., named as grand exalted ruler. Wilson, on the stand, told Judge Groner that the order had 250,000 members today. During the grand lodge's questioning session of Bates, he attempted several times to stop the former grand secretary in his replies, but Judge Groner permitted Bates to tell his story in his own way.
When the hearing was concluded, the judge called for briefs, and said he would render a decision at an early date. Should his decision favor Attorney Carter, it would mean that Williams Lodge could immediately start organizing their lodges under the charter as a grand lodge. The William Lodge would once enter an appeal as they have clarified that they would fight the case to the United States Supreme Court if necessary. This appeal might be as a bar against any organizing other than by the Wilson forces.
Utopia House Notes
The Mothers' Club of the Utopia House, 170 West 130th street, had its first outing of the season on Monday, when thirty mothers climbed into a bus donated by the Hydrox Ice Cream Company and had a long, delightful ride to Long Island City, where they were the guests of "Peggy Party," a representative of the company. This group was accompanied by Mrs. Nicholas Hopkins, who is the crew-manager of the neighborhood advertising force of the Hydrox Company.

Girl Scouts
By AIDA HARRISON, Troop 91
Dear Girl Scout:
This seems to be the season for many activities in the Scout world. Each troop is bubbling over with plans for the near future. Most important of the events to come off is the Annual Review, which concerns us all. It is hoped that Saturday will see Scouts from this district turning out in large numbers at the Sixteenth Regiment Armory, Sixteenth street and Sixteenth Street. Troops would arrange to meet early enough to be at the Armory by 2 o'clock, since late entrants will not be allowed to participate.
An added incentive to entering is the fact that ribbons will be given troops passing perfect inspection. You'd better get your uniform in shape right now. Match your stockings and shoes according to requirements.
At the review there will be six Negro girls as aides. They are: Adela Gibbs and Hilda Murray of Troop 153, Addie Gibbs and Hilda Murray of Troop 155, and Audreys Andrews, Isadora Smith and Mary Lou Hall of Troop 91.
Visitors may secure admission cards to the review from Scouts or captains.
Troops 144 and 124 of P. S. 90 and Mt. Olivet Church, respectively, spent Saturday hiking along the Pallads with Misses Ethel Miller and Marguerite Emanuel.
Troop 123, reports that its play was a great success and that the proceeds will be used to help purchase uniforms.
Troop 91 received a ribbon for second place in the song contest at the Court of Award at Roosevelt House last Monday evening. The mothers of Scouts from this troop will be entertained at the troop's annual Mother and Daughter Banquet tomorrow at 7 p.m. Insignias earned during the year will be awarded at this time.
Troop 155 plans a similar banquet for the evening of May 20.
A swimming exhibition is being planned for June. Come in the pool on Monday and be prepared when you are called on to demonstrate your ability.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Correspondent Refutes Statements of Kelly Miller Anent Harlem. To the Editor of the Amsterdam News: Sir.
In your issue of March 26, Prof. Kelly Miller under "Why so much about Harlem?" gave a biased survey of some of underlying factors which have contributed to the attention and interest Negroes have been able to win in many fields of respected human endeavor. If Professor J. J. Intendle intended to be a lawyer, he would have left out many grave charges he made against the Negroes of Harlem, regardless of their origin from the south, West Indies, or any other part of the world...
Further, if Professor Miller had mentioned some or even all of the factors and then left the question open, the article would have at least drawn attention to a fertile field for research, where the student of social behavior and economic progress could look for material, thereby gauging the extent of the upward trend of thought and general advancement in many useful occupations.... He avoided everything of a compensating character.... Why? To deliver the gravest charge and attack upon the morale, honesty, character and the Negroes Herman. It has been my opportunity to read of the active and varied career of the Negro in South America, the West Indies, Europe, Canada and in many cities of the United States.... (Signed) HUBERT J. COX. 323 West 141st street, New York City, April 5, 1930.

Court Divides Insurance Between Soldier's 2 Wives
SHREVEPORT, L., May 5
(ANP.) The Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, in reversing a decision handed down in the local Federal court in the suit of Roxana Robinson vs. the United States, held that war risk insurance is community property under the laws of Louisiana. Although the litigants were Negroes and the amount involved was only $5,000, the legal phases of the case make it very important, it was stated here.
Preston Robinson, soldier, who died in France, left an insurance policy to his putative wife, Roxana Robinson, whom he had married without the formality of a divorce from his first wife, Marie Robinson, Roxana Robinson, whom he had married with his wife. The policy made Roxana the beneficiary but the war risk bureau disallowed the claim and made the first wife the beneficiary, whereupon Roxana took the case to court. Judge Dawkins held that the insurance was separate property of the deceased and decided in favor of Roxana. The circuit court reversed this decision because the insurance was community property and decreed that the policy be equally divided between the two women.
Business Administration Address by A. L. Holsey
The Business Administration Club, an organization of graduate students of business administration at New York University, was addressed Saturday night at 210 West 133rd street by Albon L. Holsey, secretary of Tuskegee Institute and the National Negro Business League.
Mr Holsey outlined the work of the Colored Merchants' Association, which he is directing here and in several other cities. He emphasized the necessity for Negroes to study the problems facing them in business. Nine members of the organization will receive master degrees in business at New York University in June. The club attempts to maintain contacts with business men and has placed most of its members in positions. Students of other schools will be admitted. F. A. Jackson is secretary and A. L. DeMond is president.
Some of our captains spent Sunday in the out-of-doors at Quaker Ridge, Westchester County.

Governor Signs New Libel Bill
ALBANY, May 5. A bill introduced by Senator Fearon of Onondaga to define the rights of newspapers in libel actions was approved by Governor Roosevelt last week. Under the terms of the Fearon bill, an action for civil or criminal libel cannot be maintained against a reporter, editor, publisher or proprietor of a newspaper for the publication therein of a "fair and true" report of any judicial, legislative or other public and official proceedings, or for any heading of the report, provided this fairly reflects the contents of the articles published.
The bill also provides that, in an action for libel or slander, a defendant may prove misfitting circumstances, including the sources of his information and the grounds for his belief, even though he shall have pleased or attempted to prove justification for the published matter on which the action is based. The provisions of the bill will become law on September 1.

Secretary Hawkins Reports on Finances of Ninety Companies
WASHINGTON, May 5 (ANP)—The Board of Finance of the A. M. E. Church met in regular annual session at the office of the Secretary of Finance, Dr. John R.

Aside from the regular members of the Board of Finance there were in attendance several of the bishops and general officers in charge of the various departments of the church work.
The report of Secretary Hawkins for this fiscal year gives an itemized account of the reports from ninety conferences, with a total of $375,000 in publishing voucher properly classified and showing just how this fund has been distributed and disbursed.
It is of particular interest to note that in the disbursements over $125,000 was allotted as pensions to superannuated ministers, widows and orphans of deceased ministers. As usual, the auditing committee gave Secretary Hawkins a clean slate and commended him for the way in which the business of the department has been handled.
This is the fifty-eighth annual report of the department of finance and the eightth annual report submitted by Secretary Hawkins.
The total dollar money reported by members paying one dollar each since the inauguration of this system in 1872 is $1,614.64. Of this amount, $5,536.31 has been reported and accounted for under the administration of Secretary Hawkins.

Considerable Interest Shown in the Coming Robert Ogden Assn. Contest
Captain John Wanamaker Continues Stimulus to Negro Composers Begun by His Illustrious Father, Now Deceased
Considerable interest is being shown in the forthcoming contest for Negro composers, under the supervision of the Robert Curtis Ogden Association, an organization of the Negro employees of the Wanamaker store in Philadelphia. Previous contests were sponsored by the late Rodman Wanamaker. Captain John Wanamaker J. has, since the passing of his distinguished father, taken up this important enterprise.
Compositions submitted in previous contests have demonstrated, as Carl Diton, one of the judges, wrote, that "Mr. Wanamaker's offer has done more to arouse the interest of colored musicians in creative work than anything that has yet been done along these lines. The results of the contests are most encouraging; many works are very considerable degree of talent for composing, while others showed much learning, not only in the science of composition, but also that of instrumentation for band, orchestra and smaller combinations of instruments."

BILIOUS
"About three years ago I had bilious spills," says Mrs. Charles Perkins, 3929 Twelfth Avenue, North, Birmingham, Ala. "When I would let myself get bilious, I would have severe headaches, and feel very bad after one of these headaches. But after I would take Black Draught, my head would get easy, and it would be some time before I had another spell. I certainly can recommend Black Draught for biliousness and constipation."

BY THE EDITOR
WHEN a person in serious thought sits down to review the situation in the world of fistiana as it affects the Negro, it is readily recognized that it does not take the student of the fistic art to see how inexplicably the colored man is a part of the scheme of things in the many art, despite the many tricks re-
ceived from him entirely out of the running.
sorted in Given, but half a chance he has more than made good, and one need not go back to that time when Dixon, Gans, Walcott, Jackson and the others carried on, simply taking a casual glance at the conditions as they obtain out as prominently today as the attitude of when the slave ships disgored their human cargoes in the Indies, South and Central America and in what is now the United States of America.
TO maintain his so-called superiority over his black brother the ruler's law of forever denying the latter his fair chance comes forcibly to the fore when one considers cases, the most outstanding of which for the time being is that of Leo (One Punch) Williams, who recently knocked out George Courtney. But few months ago the New York State Athletic Commission named Courtney as one of the leading contenders for the light heavyweight
Williams, whose road has been the same one on which all Negro fighters are forced to walk—one so hard it takes an optimist of the first water to continue upon it after the first few minutes, that which all of Courtney's opponents unsuccessfully did to him, the black boy started on his campaign, yet the Boxing Commission will fail to take note of the decisive manner in which the colored fighter has earned his chance to be declared in on the big doings of the light heavies.
NO doubt the local commission easily reclining in their easy jaws will expect the world to applaud their action in barring rimo Garnera at this late date. It is it true they are so much rough up over the disclosure that the Italian was knocking over t-ups it is their own sweet little funeral coming home to roost, or in their effort to deny George the permission by their boxing ability they are allowed every foreign ham being barnstormed by a bunch of kicksters to enter the country and earn enough to keep their allies unto the fourth generation while denying Americans who allied to the country's call to the colors a chance to earn a decent velvet at their hands. In the same old trick of fate it took a colored fighter if the fourth class to show up Garnera. Always when the white rother hulls himself to sleep with the thought that he has the leg pugnul hoght and out of the running he crops up to show up the monsistencies and the unconscious introduce the gospel—along with their gin and certain diseases unknown until they fouled the virgin forests with their presence.
EVER ready to grab at the slightest excuse he load on the shoulders of Negro fighters we first pursued speed in holding up the purse of Kid K was evident a few minutes after his fight with now recently the sensational little fighter had an opponent. At Madison Square Garden the other night Johnson whipped before he entered the ring, despite the Chicago fighter. Experts confess that John assessor of a mighty left hand, a battle weapon at mid right, but Johnson was reminded early on that he was not a man of thousands of dollars like they did on the pre-bloomenboy jumped into the air to receive bloom blow that would give the slapper a chance to the referee. Johnson's this and spent the evening Johnson's right "hors de combat" and poor Larger than sending the left on its death-dead Bosis's guard down for a well placed right. Boys get you. Poor old Harry Wills would nerves and wide the moment he went into rebellion!
EVER ready to grab at the slightest excuse for adding to he load on the shoulders of Negro fighters we find the oaf using musual speed in holding up the purse of Kid Chocolate, hoping yuble means to break the morale of our fighters, yet Robinson would only limit his fight with Erickson, own a recently the sensational little fighter had really injured his hands in the battle.
At Madison Square Garden the other night they had Larry Johnson whipped before he entered the ring, despite the confidence of the Chicago fighter. Experts contend that Johnson is the proud possessor of a mighty weapon. When Robinson Johnson was entered on Friday night that the Boxing Commission would not hesitate to dock him out of thousands of dollars like they did on the previous occasion, if Rosenbloom again jumped into the air to receive a half spent body blow that would give the slapper a chance to look apparent.
Rosenbloom knew this and spent the evening carefully keeping Johnson's right "hors de combat" and poor Larry took a beating rather than sending the left on its death-dealing way to bring Rosie's guard down for a well placed right. Boys, they know how get you. Poor old Harry Wills would nervously throw both hands and wide the moment he went into a clinch. There was a reason.
RECENTLY they tried to browbeat the chocolate into signing up his fighter for a the Kid Berg, the English Jew. Chocolate, a legitimacy as willing to allow Berg to come in pounds over Berg's manager, a gall that was surprising for the day, waited his boy to come in a lightweight limit. Guitterze, a Cuban with the spirit of independence and the other patriots of Cuba, became the target of the team, whom off, when was as it should be. And whenarry Smith is fighting you can rest assured a way oodles of weight, like all the other colored dogs do when they are not weakening them to place advantage to keep them out of the running.
WE have before us a communication from E.B. which came to our desk at a time when we were a recent attack which started with a chill, wended up on an unusually high fever. Mr. Beverly up our hands, but fortunately for us we did not count the most recent encounter of the baseball players of the United States fleet at St. T. However, Mr. Beverhoudt's point was well taken up in real balls, and by the worked up to real balls, and by the station sea soldiers that, too, knew a the diamond game. The islanders humbled the men they ran into that outfit from the U. S. S. and they went wont soon for them in they being set for the return of the can waters next winter.
RECENTLY they tried to browbeat the manager of Kid Chocolate into signing up his fighter for a match with Jack Kid) Berg, the English Jew. Chocolate, a legitimate featherweight, willing to allow Berg (to come in pounds overweight, but Mr. Berg's fighters are not as strong in his static activities of the day, waited his boy to come in over the legitimate lightweight limit.
Guiterez, a Cuban with the spirit of independence of García, and the other priests of Cuba, became exasperated and told all the fighters to clare off, which as it should be. And when you hear that Harry Smith is fighting you can rest assured that he is giving away outfits of weight, like all the other colored fighters are forced to do when they are not weakening them to place them at a disadvantage to keep them out of the running.
WE have before us a communication from Ernest Beverhouds which came to our desk at a time when we were convulsing from a recent attack which started with a chill, went into ague and ended up with an unusually high fever. Mr. Beverhoud feels that the Virgin Islander in baseball is deserving of some consideration because he is not merely a producer a thrilling account of the most recent encounter of the islanders with the baseball players of the United States fleet at St. Thomas.
However, Mr. Beverhoud's point was well taken, for he pointed out that in the short space of time since Virgin Islanders almost gave up cricket entirely for baseball, their showing was nothing less than marvelous. When the Marines first went to the islands and engaged in their games, the natives, with crude paraphernalia, started in to acquire the rudiments and by the time they had worked up to real balls, bats, gloves, etc., they were proving to the station sea soldiers that they too, knew a thing or two about the diamond game. The islanders humbled the pick of the fleet until they ran into that outfit from the U. S. S. Wright, but even at that it was a game which they won't soon forget and from now on they will be getting set for the return of the Wright to Caribbean waters next winter.
THE following interesting letter came from the young man who many months ago was given a big send-off on his world tour astride his puffing motorcycle. The news of his success, we are sure, will be received with joy by his many friends and those reading of his exploits in this paper. He says:

You probably will be somewhat surprised upon receiving this letter, especially when it is i sfrom one so far away from home. However, I am writing you in particular to let you know how I am progressing on my tour around the world by motorcycle.
I have traveled thus far in safety from New York City without encountering any quite sure that the remainder of my journey will be successful.
Traveling, in my mind, is the surest and the highest education. It is the golden experience whose fragrant memory neither time nor adversity can take away. Many of the cities in the Hawaiian Islands and Japan are ideal places for them. Here these poor people live happily and contented. Their wants and desires are easily satisfied. The Japanese are much superior as a race to the Chinese. They possess the same industrious frugal habits, they are more conscientious in the performance of their duty, cleaner in their persons and houses, and far more intelligent than their hereditary enemies from the Flowery Kingdom.
There seems to be an irrespressible conflict between the two races and they do not mix in their social relations and have as little to do with each other as possible, except in their business transactions.
There are many grades and classes of women in the Far East. Sora are highly cultured and very beautiful. Civilized women are very much educated and their elevating and refining influence. They are musical and poet by instinct and are always looking for the beautiful and the good.
As a stranger landing in Honolulu and Japan, I felt at home in the world of my surroundings. I am leavening.

GIANTS WIN TEN INNING CONTEST
Home Run by Walter Cannady Breaks Up Game at the Oval
Walter Cannady, second baseman for the Lincoln Giants, proved himself a hero to 4,000 baseball fans at the Protectory Oval Sunday, May 4, when he came to bat in the ninth in the game between the Lincoln Giants and the Chicago Bears in the ball over centerfield bleachers for home run. The Lincoln Giants won the game by a score of 7 to 6.
Earlier in the afternoon the Lincoln had defeated the Royals by the one-sided score of "Lefty" Stark, who was knocked out in the first game, came back to pitch one of the best contests seen at this play a season.
The Lincoln singled to score Stearnes and Beckwitt in the fourth. In the next inning, Stearnes' two-bagger scored Yancey, Farrell and Thomas. The Brooklyn singled to score Stearnes and Beckwitt in the sixth, making two runs on a single by Creek.
In the Lincoln's half of the sixth, Billy Yancey, who is playing great, hit the second home run of the day—he had already made one in the first game.
The visitors scored a run in the
eighth, and in the ninth Brooks tied
the team was unable to home run. The
home team was unable to half of the ninth, but Cannady, the first man up in the tenth, broke the
tie by getting a homer off McClure,
who relieved Stark in the ninth.
The opposing pitcher and he let the Brooks
down with eight scattered hits.
The complete score of the second
game was as follows:

IN A REVIEW of the activities of the New York Tennis Association by various speakers at the recent installation ceremonies of that organization it was brought out that the association
ment of the junior players. About forty young girls and boys have been recruited and will be equipped with lacquers and balls and taught the correct rudiments of the game, entirely free of all charges of any kind. This wonderful work is under the auspices of Mrs Susie Madison, vice president of the Tennis Association, who is assisted by Mrs. Elise Conikis, Mrs. Emma Leonard, Mrs. Frances Gittens, Mrs. Daisy V. Reed, George M. Bell, L. E. Spooner and Ralph Ponder.
THE Ideal.
THE Ideal, Avon, Cosmopolitan, Grenville and St. Thomas Tennis clubs donated the use of their courts last year to the juniors during periods of the day that they were not being used. Racquets are being donated to the association for the kids, and special appeal will soon be made to further the friends for donations to further the kids this year. On account of the limited number of applicants were turned down for the time being, but it has been amazing how many of the little ones want to play the game. It is also surprising how many of the girls last year showed real promise.
THE association is to be congratulated and encouraged on their efforts with the junior players, for not only are their efforts bent on developing tennis players of the future, but they are also responsible with players of the opposite side, but their contribution to the health and mind of the coming generations will not be measured in dollars and cents. Their work among the kids will interest people that are concerned with the welfare of our young ones and are trying to take them away from the hazards of street playing.
On the Courts
IN A REVIEW of the activities of the New York Tennis Association by various speakers the installation ceremonies of that organization, it was brought out that the association made more progress during the 1929 season than in any other year since its organization. Many reasons were put forward for this progress, but the chief factor in the 1929 success of the association, to lies in the interest and cooperation of the players and fans in the program later down by the Executive Committee of the association.
THE 1929 Executive Committee not only laid out a program, but they developed ways and means to carry out that program. They selected men and women for the various committees who were in sympathy with and qualified for the work that they were selected to perform. The results were better trophies, a well-conducted tournament, with eight of the country's leading first ten players, a well-protected and subservient form, a successful open air dance, and the crowning glory of its existence—the organizing of the juniors.
THIS year the association is concentrating on the further develop-
path. Strikeouts—By Farrell, 6; by Stark, Slots on balls—Off Farrell, 7; off Stark, Slots on balls—Gains at plate, Waters on bases.

BUSHWICKS STOP STARS OF CUBA
Kandy Kids Outhit Islanders in Afternoon's First Contest
The Bushwicks took both ends of a doubleheaded from the top to the bottom of the field Sunday, making their total of victories for the season seven in eight starts. The Kandy Kids outhit the Cubans in the initial two games in the nightcap they turned 12 hits into six runs, while Demuccio limited the Stars to six hits and allowed only two runs. The Cubans' run-getting was confined to the second frame in the opener, while the Bushwicks oversized the plate once in the second fitting, once in fourth and again in the fifth. Three singles, a sacrifice and an arce
After the Cubans had gained their two-run lead Gerner came to bat in Bushwick's half of the second inning, laced out a triple to right field and crossed the rubber a minute later on Lohr's single to center. With one out in the fourth Barnes doubled to right, advancing to third after Weiss grounded out to third. Smith tied the count by dropping a single into right field to score Barnes. The winning was made in the fifth inning with two out. Let grounding out be the second in the second. Solls, but Malcne singled to left. Feet was forced at second for the second out by See. Gerner poked a single to right, sending See to third and a minute later. See came in with the winning counter on Lohr's single to center.
The Bushwick's started the second game in fine style, pounding Cruz from the mound in the second inning and collecting one run in each of the first four innings. Meanwhile, Dammond was having an easy time with the Cubans. The Stars did not score until the sixth frame when an error, two hits, one of them and infield grounder, and a sacrifice, fanned them their first run. Demucho fanned ten men. The scores:

F the thousands of fans that gathered at the Yankee Stadium last Sunday got more kicks and thrills from the long home run of Ruth Burr that the 5,000 or more baseball enthusiasts who were at the Oval on afternoon to witness the double battle between the Lions and Royals got from the Lions run of Bill Yankey, Rev. Sunday and Mr. Brooks; the elegant fielding and lightning throws; the daring spirit of competition that has made the old game so popular—well, everything a fan would look for was found there at the Oval, and we were wondering what the fans at the Yankee Stadium would have had such an exhibition of game been staged on the grounds of Little Jake Rupert.
As an all-star baseball aggregation of hall-players the Lincoln Giants, so far this season, have shown a wonderful morale. They put everything they have into every game played at the Oval. In their first game of the double-header with the Royal Giants they hopped right into the lead and in the first two innings had made ten runs while against Royals seemed to be helpless against the shoots and drops of ILL Holland. The Lincoln's regardless of their big lead, they gave the patrons a grand exhibition of the old game. The final score of the first game, which was called in the seventh liming, was Lincolns, 16; Royals, 11.
FORCE, STATE TO MEET ON GRID
Second Intersectional Game to Be Staged at Birmingham
MONTGOMERY, Ala., May 4.—Winderforce University of Xenia, Ohio, and the Alabama State Teachers College of Montgomery will meet in football contests at the Municipal Day. November 5, 1930, and at Winderforce in October, 1931, according to the announcement made last week by C. Johnson Dunn, Director of Games.
The game at Birmingham on November 5 will be the second interception game to be staged there in many seasons by the Alabama State management. Langston University of Oklahoma was the visiting opponent of 1929 after Alabama State had sponsored in 1929 first Negro football game to be played in the new Municipal Stadium of Alabama's Magic City. The game with Wilberforce proved to be quite a draw, and for Alabama fans who have enjoyed the fortunes of Alabama's other leading football aggregation—the Tuskegee Institute Tigers—who scored a 6-0 victory over Wilberforce in Chicago last Fall to insure their national championship again. Alabama State should offer a position to the Green Warrior on the grindrion this fall just as was the case during the past season when the Hornet Five inflicted the series both in Alabama and in Ohio with the Wilberforce cuintet.
crack widen.
The very attractive and tough contests for the Alabama State Hornets of 1930, who will be led by Captain-Elect William Coger, All-American guard, is almost ready to be released. The several feature contests are again to be staged and the addition of Wilberforce of schedule effects a rather advanced arrangement for Alabama State since Clark and Tuskegee represent the conference leaders of the Southeastern, Langston of the West, and now Wilberforce of the great Northwest adds another opponent of national competition for the plucky Hornets who have won 43 of their 75 contests during the past nine seasons against either touch opposition.
Here and There With the West 135th St. Y.M.C.A.
THE BASKETBALL season just closed by the "Y" seniors was a very successful one. All of the men will be back next season. Kenneth Miller, former Clinton ace, taking hold of the coaching reins in the middle of the season, worked wonders, and the team seemed to be growing stronger each game. In Bleach they have the best all-around player on the squad; the captain-elect plays any position with equal facility. Reese, the veteran, didn't look any too good in the early season, but towards the close he was coming through like a house afire Bryant, fastest player on the team, built like a Howard Drew, was very dependable all season. Brooks is a nice, shifty player and won many a game with his last-minute shots. Garner, at center, out-tapped every prior man, with the exception of George Gregory; under the watchful eye of Nat Holman he should develop into a first-class center. Taylor, a steady guard, was the real "playboy" of the squad; "Bud," who stayed at Lincoln University long enough to catch a return train to Harlem, always chants his favorite theme after each game: "When is the next party, fellows?" Harvest was suffering from eye trouble and while he turned in some A-1 performances, didn't seem to be his former self. Walker started off the season with a bung but slowed up a little. Maybe leaving the ranks of the bachelors had something to do with his form. Romero, Van Romondt and Washington gave a good account of themselves and were always dependable. Thus it will be seen that the prospect of having a topnotch team when the next season comes around is unusually bright.
A COMMITTEE is working on plans for a banquet to be tendered the "T" Seniors basketball team within the next two or three weeks, when the Nail & Park Trophy will be presented and medals awarded to each member of the team.
REESE, after putting away his basketball uniform, will don the colors of the Lincoln punchball team. "Bubba" may play the keystone sack.
PAUL HARGROVE, in his fight with Walter Palm at the Olympia last Thursday night, put up a splendid battle for the first two minutes, and then all of a sudden he forgot to duck, and—when he awoke the next morning was singing "Till We Meet Again." Jerry Wilson, who sat in a ringside seat, says that Bran Paul seemed to have walked into a fast factory.
MOSES RHETT rises to remark that he is sure to make the baseball team, and that he is a real hot-corner artist. Oh, no. Wardie, he doesn't mean hot-air artist!
OLD BOY GORDAN asked Bob Carter about borrowing his soup and fish for a dance, and Bob replied: "All you need is a soup; you don't need any fish, you are fish enough." Stop telling fortunes, Bob!
ALVIN MOSES, gentleman, scholar, athlete, and distinguished member of the fourth estate, has joined the ranks of the benedicts. Congratulations and best wishes, All! May your troubles be little ones.

THE second game of the afternoon was a hudinger. As we used to say to a pitcher when he would be getting slammed all over the lot: "Keep putting them over the plate, they'll run out of hits pretty soon." That's baseball logic. But the Lincolnns seem to know just the number of hits that are required for a successful day's work. They may hambard a team with all kinds of hits in the first game, and smother them with alliant fielding in the second. But always, in a crisis, the ball is there and sensational fielding is ever present. The wonder team of the country says Mr. Keenan in his announcements.

BILL HOLLAND seems to be in great shape this season. Holland hits had wonderful success against the strongest teams that have visited the Oval. And they tell us that Mr. Stearns, brilliant center holder of the Lincoln's, is another Bill Monroe when the winning of a ball game is at stake. Maters not how one-sided the score may be, the "Turker" never lets up. Fine trait in a ballplayer.
OTHER than breaking up the game with a home run in the tenth inning last Sunday, Cannaday played one of the most brilliant games at second any one would wish to see. His phenomenal catch of a line drive with his gloved hand was a wonderful piece of work. "Riley" seems to have found himself.
ROJO, the Cuban catcher, arrived in the States last week and jumped into the game to relieve his manager at the initial corner. While Manager Lloyd not as young as when he was consisted of the greatest he has shown a wonderful aptitude for first-team. He still has the co-ordination of extremities that makes for a long career in the activities of the game.
SOME players have a knack of getting the jump on ground balls. And it is not always the thinker that acquires it. We have some of the Lincoln Giants under suspicion of having it. He that as it is for the present, have you noticed Yaneyce driving them against the wall and over the trees laterly? And have you noticed Clint Thomas getting his wrist and three every game, Stearns and Quahook holding up field plays. And that yellow boy, Brown, behind the latt would be an inspiration to any team. We will opine, at this time, that Johnnie Beckwalt will play the greatest game of his career this season. He is taking a great interest in the game.

played a great game against his old teammates last Sunday. Washington is one of the best ballplayers we have in the game. Starke, also of the Royals, is a good pitcher, but he doesn't know it. The persistence of Page, the boy who played right field for the Royals, bids fair to make him a great player. He robbed Lloyd. Lloyd robbed cut off two runs; he well, and made the only score of the Royals in the first game. Dick Scay is another corner now playing with the Royals. On the whole, the Royals did not put up a bad exhibition in the least.
THE Lincoln leaves Wednesday for Trenton, N. L., where they play a twilight game: Thursday, Friday and Saturday they are playing in the vicinity of Philadelphia. They return home Sunday to meet their old rivals, Hillsdales, in a double-header at the Oval. Headed by Manager Briggs, the Hillsdale team will bring with them Phil Cockrell, Oscal, the great Cuban pitcher; Hubbard, Blz Mackey and other noted players. Manager Lloyd may select Red Ryan to oppose the Quaker team in the first game.

Lincoln and Bordentown Won on Points at Armstrong Field in Annual Games at Hampton Institute May 3
HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va. May 4. For the ninth time the cream of the C. I. A. a track and field stars met on Armstrong Field in the annual Hampton C. I. A. A. spring meet, May 3, and when the last tape was broken and the final inch measured, six collegiate records had toppled, many of them having stood for four years. The crowd was hoarse, but the eleven participating colleges and high schools provided a day of thrills.
Lincoln, though gaining less first places than Hampton, won the point trophy with sixty-six points and scored with hege of the team. Ziff point trophy, up presented to the school winning it three times. Hampton pointed second, taking seven first places, but failing to place in five events; Lincoln, on the other hand, garnered all of the places in the mile, and the newly added hop-step-jump. The scholastics, Bordentown swamped every one else with an avalanche of 40 points, placing first in every event except one. Armstrong Tech finished second with but half as many points. The most brilliant exhibitions of the day were the avalanche throw and the collisions kill. Relay, both of which were record breaking performances by Hampton men.
Williams, who placed second in the national meet at the Penn carnival, lived up to his newly earned reputation and smashed his own C. I. A. A. record of last year by thirty-two feet, whipping the spear a distance of 192 feet 5 inches, thirty yards ahead of the nearest rival, Hawkins of Hampton.
The most intense rivalry of the day was manifested in the mile relay, as Hampton was aspiring for permanent possession of the Abbey Hill. Lincoln had bettered Hampton's time because at the Penn Relays Cheyenne, running this year under the collegiate banner, A. & T. of N. C., Hampton and Lincoln, participated in the mile relay and the 1929 time was bettered by a second and a half.
- IN -
Cheyney drew the inside track with Brown of Hampton beside him and A. & T. on the outside. Brown stroked out at a burning pace, but both Luke of Lincoln and the A. were lowly picked up but things looked dark for Hampton as Derry stroked in with a twenty-five yard lead for Lincoln and Cheyney second. Tull. 100-yard record holder, took the baton, dug up to Fisher and cut off ten yards of the Lincoln lead. With the opportune
IN 3 WEEKS KIDNEY, BLADDER, STOMACH TROUBLES DISAPPEAR Tantac Only Medicine To Reach
The way Tanlac takes hold of your troubles and ends them would seem almost unbelievable it were not for the experiences of thousands of men and women, whom they treasured to restore to health, freed from so-called rheumatism, stomach, kidney, liver and bladder troubles by the use of this super medicine. Here's one man, named Tanlac, who suffered night and day for years until Tanlac put an end to his troubles and made him a new man. I suffered from a rudrown sore in my kidney and bladder troubles as well as indigestion, gastritis and pain in stomach and side, chest and shoulders. I had lost considerable health for 5 times night. I often had tried other things which failed to help me but after I had taken 3 bottles of Tanlac my kidney, bladder trouble and pain disappeared well and my peep and weight have all been recovered." Tanlac gives results and gives them quick for every herb, bark and wood, strong and mild medicine. Like all good things it has its imitators but remember still it makes glowing promises Tanlac is the ONE real medicine that backs its claims with a guarantee of money refunded if it works. Do you accept a substitute. At your druglist.

advantage gained by Tull, "Rock"
Early, Hampton junior and holder of the C. I. A. 440 record, let out. It was a perfect race. Inch by inch of Lincoln's fifteen yard lead dropped and though on the half lap Lloyd pulled slightly away, Early picked him up on the curve, shot past him and running with absolute precision led in the field by ten yards. Early clipped a second from the 440 record he had made earlier in the afternoon when he shattered Cook's four-year-old time.
Both Manssas and Booker T. Washington High of Norfolk had two legs on the Virginia High School Ray Cup, and Booker T. easily cluched the third leg winning permanent possession. Lambert and Skinner ran exceptionally well for the Bookers.
"Lanky" Coles, Hampton boy, set a new high hurdle (120) record, doing it in 15.9. Williams alone broke a record in the field, and the discus, broad jump, and pole vault were last last year. Chayne of Howard took the high jump equalling the record, and Davis of Cheyne, very polished jumper, took second place. Sydnor quickly faded out of both of the jump events.
Lee of Armstrong led the field in on the half mile; Woodward of Bordentown, the 220; Turner of Bordentown took the mile. The scholastic high jumping was good. Vessels of the school were Brooks of Booker T. showing exceptional merit.
The schools participating were: Colleges—Hampton, Union, Lincoln, Cheyne, Howard, A. & T. St. Augustine. Schools: Bordentown, Booker T. Washington, Armstrong, Marassas.

Operetta by "Y" Girl Reserve,Dept. Was Enthusiastically Received
"Prince Charming" was the one act opera staged at the Labor Lyceum, Myrtle and Lily, and evening by the Girl Reserve Department of the Ashland Place Y. W. C. A. Katherine of the tail and love opera, impersonated "Prince Charming", and it was his most anointed desire to win the affection of Molly. The audience offered offert, at times bordered on the threshold of utter defeat. But, apologizing for the patient belief that no one should win the fair, he persisted and eventually he was successful. During the interment in which he was success of Molly, Cupid, represented by little Dorsis Wilson, appeared and entreated her to the Howeau, but she was adamant. Not even the suggestion and final command of her assistance did she the Howeau, but that as the goddess of love, she will play her part successfully, and with a sudden strenuous effort pursued.
An attractive feature on the program was the size of the book. It stands on the standpoint of humor. Jack simply stole the show away from the audience, vigorous readiness and unfragmenting zest, her every appearance was enough to make her a lovable laughter. Jill was a direct opposite to Jack. Hers was a graceful reading, verging on shy.
Viney Williams, playing the part of Molly, acted her parts with a assistance and with a well-balanced equality. The fairies and reception maids were: Doris, St. Hill, Rose Joyner, Joyce Joyner, Marle Cartwright, Beatrice Shifford, Phyllis Hollmeed, Christine Orlando, Evelyn May and Aaron.
Representing "silver and gold" were Elsie Smith, Helen Helen Moore, Ira Daniels, Lekele Latty, Mary Bassan, Lilian Chin and Helen Beleen. Butterflies, Audrey Blanche, Lorna Blanche, Frances Smith, Mabel Price, Helen Jones, Agnes Nottingham, Stellan Stellan, Mildred Brown and Patricia Todd.
The Indians, dressed to represent real skins, were Hilda Hill, Patricia Manser, Rosabelle Clark, Loretta Jacobs, Harold Jacobs, Vivian Caphard, Frances Hacker, Joseph Wilson and Patricia Manser.
The color violet was much in evidence by Patricia Jackson, Jean Carey, Milred Wallace, Catherine Hoster, Irene Smith, Joan Horn, Hilda Brown, Ruby Kidd and Carolyn Kidd. Roses were in bloom, and the flowers were Leu Horn, Alice White, Vera Jones, Marie Parrow, Muriel Hloeineed, Carey, Olivir Carey, Celena Smith, The Tart Males were Eloise Bristol, Thelma Dotson, June Harris, Alberta Garner, Freire Freeman and
The cast was made up of Katherine Jeffries (Prince Garmine), Ruth Guthrie (Gerald), St. Valentine (Gerald), Gertude Williams (Queen of Tartis), Doris Willem (Cupid), Geneva Jill (Jill), Edith Dodson (Puck), Clara Williams (Father), Mabel Brooks (Mother), Robert Wilson (Fairy), Helen Price (Special Valentine), Betty Deas (Jane), Ida Brown (Sally), Betty Burrough and Phyllis (Pages), Ruby Perkins (Dancer).

Thirty-first Anniversary
Observed at St. Philip's
The thirty-first anniversary of St. Philip's P. E. Church, 1606 Dean Rector, was fittingly observed on Sunday, when it had as the guest speaker for the evening service the archdeacon of Brooklyn, former archdeacon of Brooklyn. At 7 A. M., the Holy Eucharist was celebrated, at which time the newly ordained Reverend John Again, at 11 A. M., there was the celebration of this feast by the Rev. Mr. Boyd, who also preached from the theme, "One Sheepher and One Fold." By a happy coincidence, the Rev. Mr. Clark spoke on the same subject as the Rev. John Again, his sermon he took occasion to pay a glowing tribute to the rector of the church and his finest beautiful church building and for his far-searing ability as a builder, which quality he befitted by the Rev. R. Reverend Stires.
Speaking on the question of the question of the church, he said that a prominent man once said that "there were far too many churches, and there were far too few people in the churches. He said that God was not in the church, but in Palestine, in main Palestine, but that it should be spread everywhere for man's redemption. He said that man's annihilation is very and darkness.
"What is the weakness of the church? Quorum? that is the weakness of its members. Stressing the fact from the strength of its members, no exhorted the members to take on the responsibility to the call of the leader.
He also asserted that the kind of service he offered was "secured service." He said some people serve because they believe they are the church's members, others, "because they realize that it is their bounded duty so to do." In 1981, he said the church was not a museum of saints, but that it was a clinic—a place where people who attend a church words are spread abroad.
Twenty-nine Club Score in Annual Spring Danco
In what could be considered the premiere of the social season was the summer prince Club Hall at the spacious Arcadia Club. Halsley street and Saratoga avenue, on Friday evening last, welcomed the trio, who stripped the light fantastic to the tunes of the Coody Williams Arabian Knights. Fair, which is always looked forward to with great anticipation, and which invariably draw a large crowd, surpassed the most important members of the club. Long before midnight the most evident fact was a great sweating mass of the women and members of the latest fashions, and exhibiting a brilliant array of colors, were the members of the club. A triumphant pride and looked graceful and lovely as they played their part in making the evening one of the most spectacular. An observant fact was the representatives of the different walks of life, nevertheless, they blended into one, make the elite break loose gladly from the cold formalities and negative civilities of an over prudent society, and become joyous and freehearted.
A factor that contributed much to the decision to pass the passing around of confetti and souvenirs to the now merry group. It was not long after the sharing began, and every person was seen with a cap, whistle, or some other noise-making article, and each one was asked what made of making noise. What a demeaning din of noise was heard!

Opening on Tuesday evening and continuing for a week, the spacious auditorium was filled with light, during which time a diversified set of programs was rendered by local groups among which were Concord Baptist Church, an uncleo Baptist and St. Paul Baptist.

The booths were twelve in number and each was under the direction of one of the staff members. Allen Morton, Charles Bryant, Thomas Gregory, A. Wilson, J. B. Sullivan, D. C. Green, H. Lamer, Descott Lankford Rev. George Abbott. There was also a "Fishing Pond" supervised by the Doll Table; by a group of pretty maidens, members of the Altruistic Club.

Anderson, G. Jenkins, H. Wilson, F. Wilson, I. Morton, I. Latimer and Miss Clark. These persons played a wonderful part in making things pleasant for the visitors. The "decorating committee," with Mrs. M. Williams, Mrs. N. Pierce, Miss M. Williams, J. Simkins and B. Watley, also did a fine piece of work, by contributing to make the place look more like a fairy garden than a church. Other committees that did their bit were the "program" under the chairmanship of Mrs. Scott, as listed by Mede�um, Mrs. F.Y. & Co., I. Franklin, C. Baldwin, Miss V. Baylor, A. Phillips, B. Harrison and the "booth" with A. Robinson, J. Morse, Charles Bryant, H. Lankford, C. Jenkins and Mr. Edwards. On the ticket committee were S. Green, D. Williams, L. Phillips and Miss Baylor.

Bishop Sees Utopia
When War Is Done
"And They Shall Be One Fold, and One Shepherd," the text from which the RL Rev. Archbishop Regional G. Church, Classon and Atlantic avenues, last Sunday morning. With an irresistible charm of language the reverend gentlemen delivered a very brilliant and inspiring
Speaking on the subject, he said: "We are now living in the dawn of a new world order, in this new age, he continued, "in this new world order, the message of religion is one of harmony, oneness and continuity. Continuing, he said, "Combats, controversies and conflicts have never had a welcome in this world, nor have we ever had a place in any true religion. The new spirit of religion in this new day, in this new world, will find no place in conflicting Christians, nor for controversial creeds." "Faithfully organized Christianity" he described, displays a definite trend away from the principles of Jesus, in so far as it is organized to exalt the deity of Jesus. "Faithfully organized Christians and bears within its own bosom the germ of its own destruction. All the great prophets, continued, continued, the same religion, namely, the worship and service of the one and only God; that all the men live as brothers, that the bonds of affection and unity between the sons of men should be strengthened. Speaking on the frailties of men, he said men in their weakness have misused religion and made it an agent of oppression. He described scribes, hatred and even seldom."
He closed his sermon by a stimulating impression of geniusness and scholarship when he said that they were the new age, awakened mankind will be asnaimed of their degrading of the high ideals of true religion; that they will cast traditionalism, traditionalism; and that they will vess themselves with a new spirit, which will enable them to banish strife, bloodshed and all discord, and which will order world in which all men will be as one kindred and one family.

Residents of the Lefferts Manor district, in the area around the four-furrow street, were here last week we were discussing what legal recourse remained to them when it was announced that Mr. Morris would be home to "a large family of colored people." The people who have leased this house to Mr. Morris, were colored persons. The family is a large one, and I have given them a long lease, a cancellation clause which can be applied in the event the house is sold." Mrs. Morris would not divulge the details of her fully declared she would have a great story on May 14. Mrs. Morris and the Lefferts Manor Association became embroiled when the former, a widow who needed money, placed a "wanciennes" sign in front of the 54 Midwood street. The Lefferts Manor Association took the matter to court and obtained an injunction against the place as a rooming house.
The court order was based on the clause covering the property's estates. This clause hold that none but one-family dwellings, could be owned by the court. Shortly after this order was granted, Mrs. Morris erected a large sign on her property, telling the populace that Flamingo is For Rent to Colored People Only. The house is in the district where well-to-do families reside among them Supreme Court Justice Dodd.

White Slayer May Make Insanity Plea
NEW ORLEANS, May 5 (ANP)—A motion for the appointment of a Lunacy Commission to examine Charles Guerand, former white policeman, facing death on the gallows for the murder of a 14-year-old girl, will be presented to Criminal District Court by A. J. Hollender, the condemned man's attorney. Attorney Hollender said he had leaked a letter to Guerand prior to the killing of the girl, and has further learned that relatives of the former policeman have been committed on occasions to institutions. He believes Guerand to be criminally insane, he declared. When, a few weeks ago, Charles Guerand, former supernumerary policeman, was convicted of the killing, with a verdict that carried hangings, New York jurists and other legal lights of the case, that it was the first time in the history of the State in which a white man had received the extreme penalty for the murder of a colored person.
Newspaper files, however, reveal the fact that, on July 2, 1852, two white men were hanged for the murder of a "slave girl" named Mary. An acct of the event, with its subsequent chain of events, towards the hanging, forms one of the most interesting passages in the criminal records of the time.
Father and Sons Held for Larceny
A father, his two sons, and another man were held without ball for a further hearing next Tuesday when arraigned yesterday in Heights Court before Magistrate Gottlieb on a charge of grand larceny.
The men are Walker Sewickl, 41, 2244 Fifth avenue; Henry Carter, 50, 248 West 19th street; and his two sons, John and John, 16, also of the 149th street addition charged with stealing a truckload of coal Monday afternoon from Richard Morse, 110-10 West 160th street, Jamaica, L. L.
Morse told police that he left his truck containing the coal at the corner of 135th street and Fifth avenue at 2 p. m., going into a drug store to use the telephone. When he returned in a few minutes, he said, the machine had disappeared. He reported his loss to Detective Boyden. He began a search of the neighborhood. At 144th street and Eighth avenue, the detective found the empty truck. Proceeding to 149th street, Detective Boyden saw four men busily engaged in dumping coal down a coal chute.
When neither Sewickl or his companions could produce a bill of sale for the coal, they were placed under arrest by Boyden and taken to the West 353th street building. The coal, admitted stealing the coal. According to police, this is a new racket which is becoming popular among criminals of the city.

The New York Amsterdam News
Telephone Company Accepts New Rates
Statement of President, However, Holds Income Will Be Cut
In a statement J. S. McCulloh, president of the New York Telephone Company, in connection with the telephone rate case, asserts that "the decision just announced by the Public Service Commission making changes in telephone rates throughout the State purports to cut by $2,760,000 the annual rates proposed by the company last January under the authority of the judgment of the court. As the rates then proposed the company were designed to yield what less than the cent rupee required by court and since the evidence before the Commission in the proceeding just closed fully supported the company's estimates, there is no justification whatever for the reductions in the rates made by the Commission.
"The Commission in its opinion properly states that the decision of the court of last December is binding upon it and pretends to follow that decision in making its determination. But it is pretense only; for example, in deducting $35,000,000 from the rate base for 1930 the Commission does so in direct violation of the court's decree.
"The Commission criticises the increase in operating expenses over the period 1913 to 1929, without having any real understanding of the operating problems and disregards entirely the large increases in wages and cost of the services directly affecting the construction and operation of the telephone plant which have occurred throughout that period. Such increased costs of wages and material inevitably increased the total operating expenses.
"Moreover, the people of the City of New York and throughout the state require and have insistently demanded a constantly improving quality in all forms of telephone service. This the Commission recognizes in its opinion. The meeting of these demands for refinements and improvements in the various grades of service necessarily resulted in further increasing the operating expenses. The implication in the opinion of the Commission that there have been undue increases in the operating expenses is entirely unwarranted. All of these matters were gone into exhaustively upon the trial of the court case and both the Special Master and upper court judges were required to extensive evidence before them that the property was kept in an excellent state of repair and operating condition and that the company in the conduct of its operations had 'availed itself to the fullest extent reasonably possible of all savings and economies.'
"The rates ordered by the Commission will fall far short of yielding the annual rate of return upon the fair value of the property directed by the court's decree. Proof of this fact may be more definitely established by the results of actual operation than by predictions. Therefore, the company will comply, under protest, with the order of the Commission with respect to the filing and putting into effect of the rates prescribed by such order. No further application to the courts is contemplated at this time."

C.M.A. Stores Set For National Job
Grocery Co-operative Now Numbers 253 Members in 16 Locals
The second step in launching the national program of the Colored Merchants' Association will be taken Friday evening at a meeting at the National Negro Business League's local office, 2814 Eighth avenue. Temporary officers were elected last week to serve the National C. M. A. Stores, a united organization of the grocery co-operative bodies throughout the country. John E. Nall, real estate man, was named temporary chairman and Albon L. Holsey, secretary of the Business League and of Tuskegee Institute, was elected secretary. Mr. Holsey is organizer of the grocery association. There are 253 member stores connected with the sixteen local organizations, the latest of which was organized Thursday in Brooklyn. Papers of incorporation are being drawn up for the national body.
The plan calls for formation of a stock corporation. Member retailers are entitled to purchase stock and the remaining capital will be furnished by other business men interested in the venture. The national organization will direct the group buying, advertising, arrangement of stores, display and other phases of merchandising. The National Negro Business League is solidly behind the movement and has provided the organizer. Prominent business and professional leaders of two races met last week at the Negro Business League headquarters and at the Bankers' Club, 120 Broadway. The National M. A. C. is conducting a contest for selecting a brand of coffee for its stores. Prizes of $25 each for a name and a slogan are offered.
The judges are G. E. Luxor, manager of the grocery department of the Biddle Purchasing Company; H. M. Foster, former editor of the grocery section of the New York Journal of Commerce; Mr. Eva D. Bowles, director of Negro work of the National W. Y. C. A.; Mrs. Clara Burrill Bruce, assistant resident manager of the Paul Laurence Dinbar Apartments, and J. Lester Cassidy, sales manager of the Dannemiller Coffee Company.
White Slayer of Man Denied Bail
Cause
COOKEVILLE, Tenn., May 5 (ANP).—Efforts to secure bail for William Manier, a white man, charged with the murder of Houston Brooks, failed here recently after a habeas corpus hearing.
Attorneys for the defendant endeavored to prove that Manier was intoxicated at the time he killed Brooks and due to this fact there could have been no premeditation connected with the murder. This argument was stoutly contested by the prosecutors and at the conclusion of the hearing Manier was returned to jail to await trial.
The shooting occurred near the Brooks home on March 18. The eye witnesses to the killing were the 10-year-old son of the dead man and a white woman who was in the neighborhood at the time. Both witnesses testified at the hearing and declared that Brooks had offered no provocation for the shooting or any resistance whatever.
Brooks and his 10-year-old son were returning from a fishing trip. As they neared home, Brooks having a fishing pole in one hand and a can of bait in the other, they met Manier, who cursed Brooks and told him he was going to kill him. Brooks urged the white man to go on his way and in reply Manier his reviver and shot him twice, death resulting almost instantly. The pole and can of bait were in the hands of the dead man when the officers arrived.
The state contended that Manier had borne ill-feeling against Brooks for some time prior to the killing and had frequently threatened to do him bodily harm.
Brooks had the reputation of being a hard working, law-abiding citizen who had many friends among both races.

AT LAST A BILL has been signed by the Governor creating a new and much needed municipal court district for Harlem. So long and futile had been the agitation for a new district that the public had begun to despair. Three times, during the administrations of Governor Alfred E. Smith, bills for a new court in Harlem were passed by the Legislature, and each time Governor Smith vetoed them. The reasons he gave were never satisfactory, for the need for a new district was obvious and glaring. The fact that Governor Roosevelt signed the bill the first time it was presented to him indicates the difference between him and his predecessor, as a man and as a Governor.
AS THE JUDGES elected to preside over the new district will exert a great influence in the life of Harlem, they cannot be too carefully chosen. The important thing is not that they should belong to a certain political party, but that they should be men of conspicuous legal knowledge, judicial competence, proven honesty and general high standing.
ASSEMBLYMAN Francis E. Rivers, sponsor of the bill, deserves the highest praise. Another bill originated by him was also signed by the Governor, a bill that will make for better living conditions in Harlem, as well as elsewhere. It provides that landlords may not collect their rent until they have removed violations on their property. Formerly, a landlord could let his house go to rack and ruin and if the tenants did not like it they could move out. By the Rivers bill the tenant pays his rent in court and it is withheld from the landlord until the violations are removed.
HARLEM'S other assemblyman, Lamar Perkins, has rendered a similar service to all New York tenants. His six-months' stay bill was also signed by the Governor. These two young assemblymen in their first year have had three new laws placed on the statute books of New York State, an unusual accomplishment. It is fitting that some outstanding public testimonial should be given them.

DR. FRADENBURGH, dean of the Brooklyn Center of the College of the City of New York, thinks that the exchange of college students between nations is a strong influence for peace. Many others think the same thing. About thirty years ago the Rhodes scholarships were established at English universities with the idea, and leading American and European colleges exchanged professors. Their theory was that if nations knew each other better the prospect of wars would be lessened. The better you know a man, they said, the less you hate him, and the same must be true of nations.
BUT OLD MARS was laughing up his sleeve at Irene, the goddess of peace. Just as the idealists were most eloquent the World War burst upon them like a shell ima parlor. People discovered that acquaintance is not necessarily followed by love. Even intermarriage did not help; the Kaiser was King George's first cousin and the Czar's brother-in-law.
IF THE EXCHANGE of students made for peace there would have been no wars for the past seven centuries. Ever since there were universities the students of every country have studied in other countries. Even the sameness of blood and nation availed nothing, for civil wars have been the bloodiest in history, with members of the same family fighting on opposite sides. Prevention of war is not so simple as idealists think. Men and nations will cease fighting when their interests cease to clash. But when will that be?
PREDICTS AMERICAN
WAR WITHIN 15 YEARS
BOSTON, May 5 (ANP.)—Miss Evangeline Adams, formerly of Boston, a descendant of John Quincy Adams and generally recognized as the foremost authority on astrological science in America, predicts that there will be war in the United States within fifteen years. It will be a political-racial-religious conflict, she says, and will break out between 1943 and 1946.
Miss Adams bases her predictions on astrology and the signs of the Zodiac.

MORE FORMER SLAVES
LIVING THAN MASTERS
BIRMINGHAM, May 5 (ANP.)—That there are more "former slaves" living than "former masters" was the opinion expressed here by Simon Phillips, president of the Alabama ex-Slaves' Association, upon his return home from an extended tour of the state, on which he "looked up" former slaves and masters. Mr. Phillips further declared that he found two former slaves who had reached the age of 104 years and who were yet hate and hearty and able to work. Another tour will be staged within the next two months, according to the statement of the president.
Rambling Ruminations
PARIS.
M UCII has been said in favor of "Hallelujah." King Vidor's film, by the leading critics on this side of the Atlantic as well as by the critics, colored and white, in America. In European film circles it has made a great stir.
Here, however, comes a writer in Le Monde of Paris, who denounces it in no uncertain language and takes severely to task those French critics who have been showering praise on it. Le Monde is perhaps the foremost radical journal of Europe, and has on its staff some of the leading thinkers, among them being Henri Barbusse, Eisenstein, and Rene Maran, author of "Batoula."
The writer is Sam Brody, who recently returned from New York. He says:
"The discovery of America by way of Hollywood is dangerous. Hollywood is the great American life; Hollywood is the impudent press agent of money-grabbing America." To accept anything that comes out of Hollywood without subjecting it to close criticism, he says, is to become a victim of the greatest game of bluff in the world.
Pickens Says:-
O.A.N.P.
"Arrested on Suspicion"
—Lynched
N Anderson County, S. C., where
I was born, they have just
lynched a Negro who was in jail
only as a suspect. We all know
that when officers pick up a man
"on suspicion," very often the
grounds of the suspicion are very
light. Sometimes the officers
lazy to the needless the fenceselous person merely to quiet
public clamour and to stop criticisms
against the officers.
No wonder that the sheriff in
this latest brutality had to be
knocked in the head by the mob
before he would allow them to take
the prisoner out of jail. No officer with a bit of human sense
would ever allow a prisoner being
taken by a mob. The inhumanity
and the folly of mob-action under such
circumstances cannot be exaggerated.
This calls to mind a mob incident in and near Paris, Texas, some years ago. They were gathering wood and other fuel to burn a young Negro man, a mere lad, on the public square of that Texas city that was there. A set of ordinary coincidences; there were "hard" times and a security of jobs and work. This boy had come from a town about forty miles away, looking for work, just a day or two before.
Just the day before this fuel was being piled to burn him he had set out early in the morning, at about 4 o'clock, to get a job where he was told that men were being hired on a stranger, he had stopped at several places to ask directions as he went along the road.
On that same morning some white woman somewhere in that neighborhood, but at least two miles and a half from the nearest point where anybody bore witness to seeing this stranger blond boy, climbing a ladder, and boy was picked up, a stranger, who had been asking directions early in the morning, who was poor and destitute—very "suspicious," indeed. His own explanations of his situation and movements meant nothing more. He was jailed by the officers, and he was by the mob, and a pyre was methodically being built simply to burn him. Mobs never investigate; they act unsympathetically, brutally. They had just recently burned another Negro in that same town, which burning, Paris, in Texas, had occurred, known for infamy as its namesake in France is well known for art.
But there was one brave and just white man in Paris, Texas; he happened to be the mayor. He went out on the square and said to the mob: "We have already burned one man recently here; if I can present not burn another. We will investigate." I want to talk to this young Negro. The mob threatened him. He went into the jail to see the lad, who told him his straight and simple story. The mayor believed. It is not hard to discern truthfulness under such circumstances. The mayor took a pair of handcuffs and fastened his own left hand to the boy's right, and said to the mob: "If you burn him, you will bring me: I will stick right by him." The mob could, of course, have cut away the boy's arm to free the mayor, but this brave and deter-
-BY J. A. ROGERS
He goes on: "I wish to speak here of the astonishing explosion of praise that greeted the private showing of 'Hallejah' in Paris. In America the bourgeois press also called it a 'Negro classic', but it was in this manner that it was presented in New York—two theatres were rented for the occasion, one on Broadway for the superior white Nordels; another in Harlem for the Negroes. This was done, in order to order to Negroes the film 'in their atmosphere'. But in reality it had no other purpose than to get the Negroes off by themselves so that they would not contaminate the fine, respectable Nordels."
The Negro press, he said, protested against this jim-crowism in vain. As to the film itself he says "it is difficult to imagine a work more faked, a work possessing so subtle spirit that it desecending to examine what Vidor calls 'the remarkable emotional nature of the Negro.' No need to speak of the disgust with which it filled the Negro spectators of New York. A part of the film was turned in Mississippi, which holds the record for lynching. But lynching has been a national affair, a fact that it no longer holds a thrill, and the American public, always in search of an exotic thrill, has now taken to the Negro spirit
mined act arrested their attention for the moment, and the mayor made the commonsense suggestion that he would 'phone to the chief of police in the town where the boy had come from, and whom the lid claimed to know well, and whom the maid claimed to know well, and whom the family and the record of this boy. He did so, and the chief police officer said over the wire: "For God's sake, do not allow them to lynch that boy. I have known him all his life. He couldn't do a thing like that. I know his parents and all his friends you can see. I get there, we bring a force of deputies, and we will take him and fetch him back home here."
The mob was told that the officers were coming from the neighboring town to "identify" and to "tell about the boy." That was the most diplomatic way to put it to the mob. When a mob sets out for prey, it does not call the police, all this determined and manual action of some of their own white people had sobered some of them, so that they were disposed to be cautious and go easy. The saving of this lad was only a result of the courage and conscientiousness of this mayor. If the mob had succeeded in lynching the boy without the police, we would have read have that "the Negro confessed," without being told that someone had stuck a red-hot piece of iron to his side and commanded him to say "Yes."
And after a lynching, even the good and the brave are less liable to act, because action then seems so useless, so useless, so useless, dares to act. After the lynching good men feel; Well, the poor fellow is dead, and I have everything to lose and nothing to gain by stirring the matter up again. And the public mind goes on, abused and imbured.

California Offers Farm Opportunities
LOS ANGELES, May 5 (ANP)—With the wonderful opportunities in farming for Negroes with a little capital, it is frequently wondered why more of them who come West to live do not take up agriculture. For example, opportunities exist in the wonderful county of Tulare. Ultimately hundreds of thousands of persons of other races will locate there and populate the fertile territory, where today only a few thousands are one. It is the few that offer the real opportunity to the Negro in his struggle for economic freedom. Fertile, tillable land can be purchased exceptionally reasonable in any amounts of from one to a thousand acres, it is claimed.
Water is plentiful. Dairying, hot raising, alfalfa and cotton growing constitute the chief source of income. Dairying alone is estimated at better than $300,000 a month. The orange crop is valued at more than $100,000, while raising has $155,000 and, with these facts, we find the Negro crowding into congested city centers, while the foreigner is migrating to the West and locating in the fertile valleys, developing the soil and making good while the Negro sleeps on.
A few Negroes have caught the vision and have taken hold. The Old Fellows' home is located here, complying with forty-five laws best and fairest. This farm has a wonderful dairy of twenty head of the finest milch cows to be found anywhere.

What the Census Will Show
CHICAGO. May 5 (ANP).—"The data now being collected by the United States Bureau of the Census will indicate the progress the Negro has made along many lines during the past ten years." asserts Charles E. Hall. a representative of that bureau, who has headquarters in this city at the Binga Arcade Building.

"It will not be pleasing to those of the crowd who are singing the praises of 'Hallelujah' to learn that Vidor selected his cotton-pickers and actors out of the Harlem night club. Imagine Einstein seeking the interpreters of 'The General Line' in the artist quarters of Moscow and Leningrad! 'Hallelujah' is not a film on the Negroes. It is not a miserable example of what white America thinks of the Negro. But Hollywood will not make another film on the Negroes. The whites do not want Negroes on the screen. In the land of lynching, hanging, of Jim-Crow, and pouring on oil, 'Hallelujah' has been a frost. It is indeed to be negretted that the French critics, often so inspiring, have permitted them to give their approbation to such an inconsistent mixture taken from right and left in vaudierie.
"Some day the American Negro will take his true place on the screen and he will make a finer showing. The black heroes will neither be crazy Zekes nor hysterical Chicks. Their songs will no longer be splendid, less exotic, less exploitation that the fat dames of the United States listen to with their eyes turned up in ecstasy.
"The actors will be taken from
"Prior to 1920 nearly 90 per cent of our gainfully employed persons were engaged in three branches of industry — agriculture, manufacturing, and domestic service.
"But since 1920 there has been a steady trend from the agricultural districts to the urban communities, and it is generally believed that while a decrease among our agriculturists will be indicated for 1930, a corresponding increase will be shown in the number of Negroes engaged in other activities, particularly in trade in the manufacturing industries, professional service, and other occupations and possibly in the domestic and personal service classification.
"In 1927 when the last Census of Agriculture was taken it was found that there had been a decrease of approximately 23,000 Negro farm owners in Southern States since 1925. Estimating the average value as low as $1,000 for these farms, including-land, buildings, and machinery, it appears that we sustained an agricultural loss of $2,000,000 during the two-year period. Whether the data for 1930 will indicate a further decrease is yet to be determined.
"Ten years ago we found that in the United States as a whole there was one colored lawyer for each 11,014 inhabitants of all ages, and also that there was a faulty distribution of our lawyers, 60 percent of whom located in fifty-three of the largest cities which combined Negro populations constituted only about 15 per cent of our total population.
"That the same condition of faulty distribution obtained among our physicians and surgeons was also apparent from a study of the 1920 census data which showed that while we had one physician to each group of 2,290 persons of all ages, nearly 65 per cent of our population in sixty-eight of our largest cities whose combined colored populations did not exceed 16 per cent of our total population in the United States.
"Although there were at that time 121 cities in which there were 3,000 or more, the trend of our professional men towards the largest cities has left our group in a number of cities, without adequate, if any, radial representations in the medical and legal professions.
"The extent to which the saturation point has been reached as far back as ten years ago was indicated by data which showed 23 of our largest cities having less than 2,000 colored inhabitants per colored lawyer and 19 cities in which there was an average of less than 1,000 colored inhabitants of all ages for each colored physician. What the 1930 census returns will show will therefore be of great interest to our members of these two professional groups. The subject of unemployment will doubled less than due to the heavy migration from the Southern States in recent years, many of the northern cities have, for the time being, reached the saturation point in their absorption of colored wage earners."

According to the Daily Mail, the death of the Empress Dajitou of Abyssinia was due to an ice-cold bath that the priests had given her. When she fell ill, it is said, she refused to seethe ill, but the doctors once were called it was too late for their care to do any good.
The Empress was suffering from diabetes. The bath was a holy rite. The Empress was very religious and held to the old rites. It is reported that the former husband of the Empress, the Ras Jauxa, attempted to seize the throne, but in an engagement in which aeroplanes bombarded his position he was defeated by the forces of the Emperor Tafarl, was captured and executed.
Georgia G. O. P. Set Up Separate Organizations
ATLANTA, May 5 (ANP).—Delegates to the Republican State Convention held here recently split into two factions and elected two sets of officers. The cleavage seems to have occurred over the desire to establish white leadership for the party in Georgia or to make the "ily whites" the dominant factor in the party's affairs.
Against this attempt, Benjamin Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent, fought herically and was successful in effecting the election of a group of officers disposed to greater fairness toward the Negro voter. Roscoe, Pickett, retiring state chairman, offered the name of James Arnold as his successor, and William W. Fisk, Federal district attorney, opposed him, and put in nomination Gilmer Dozler. Mr. Davis succeeded in having Mr. Arnold elected as chairman of one faction and the other faction elected Charles Adamson. Davis was elected secretary of his faction.

WHITE AND BLACK IN AFRICA. By J. H. Oldham. Published by Longmans, Green & Co., New York. GENERAL JAN SMUTS, in his lectures on Africa, has always had an advantage. He has spent his life in
Africa, first as a Boer, then as a British subject. He is regarded as "the man who knows," and other white people have hesitated to argue with him. They have felt like a Canadian talking with a Southerner on the American Negro; it does not occur to them that his opinions may be illogical or unjust; that beneath all his high professions of ethics he may have an axe to grind; that he may be trying to cover up some of the most damnable deeds in human history. Thus Negroes have been practically the only ones to challenge the assertions of General Smuts
assoc'tion of a white man has appeared to challenge him, a man who seems to know more than some parts of Africa than some Smuts. He is J. H. Oldham, and his book, "White and Black in Africa," is a critical examination of the Rhodes' lectures delivered by General Smuts at Oxford. These lectures were swallowed whole by the English and American public; but Mr. Oldham's mind refused to assimilate them. He sees two Smuts. One is the world thinker who accoladed and espoused the League of Nations, and this is the Smuts with whom he co-organized the other of the unregenerate South African Boer, to whom Africa is a bonanza for white men and a tomb for black men. With this Smuts Mr. Oldham anticleracies.
Mr. Oldham first makes the reader understand the great and growing importance of Africa, the richest continent on the globe. One third of it belongs to England and an even larger portion to France. Italy, Portugal, Belgium and Spain are the other possessors, except for the land owned by Egypt, Abyssinia and Liberia. In fifty years the value of the annual exports from Africa has risen to a billion and half dollars, and this is only a beginning. There are sources of fabrics and textiles untouched. To Mr. Oldham, however, the most valuable thing in Africa is its human inhabitants.
Before taking up debtable questions Mr. Oldham challenges General Smuts on matters of fact. General Smuts asserted in his first Rhodes lecture that in South Afri-
Hampton Observes 62nd Anniversary
Resignations of George F. and Francis G. Peabody Announced
HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va., May 5.—The sixty-second anniversary of the founding of Hampton Institute brought to the school a large party of friends and a large group of alumni recently. At the exercises on Friday afternoon in Ogden Hall, Dr. Robert L. Blackwell, president of Randolph-Macon College and president of the university commission, gave the principal address, taking for his subject the "Abiding Values in Education."
Announcement was made of the resignation of the two senior members of the board of trustees, George F. Peabody, who has been a member of the Board for forty-six years, and Dr. Francis G. Peabody, a member for forty years. Both made honorary members of the board for life by vote of the trustees. To fill these vacancies, Dr. J. A. C. Chandler, president of William and Mary College, and John W. Haynes, head of a large investment firm of New York City, who is a native of Winston-Salem, N. C., were elected. Clarence H. Kelsey was elected chairman of the board for the death of Chief Justice Taft, and J. H. Scattergood was elected vice-chairman.
At the exercises, George Gray of Indianapolis, Ind., School of Business, '30, spoke on "A Forward Step in Negro Business"; Rebecca R. Franklin of New Orleans, La., School of Home Economics, as a preparation for Service"; and Mervin A. McKenney of Nominy Grove, Va., and Preston M. Morton of Beazley, Va., both of the School of Agriculture, '30, gave a demonstration on "The Modern Mother Hen" with a brooder and chickens on the platform of Ogden Hall. "The Need for a Brooder" was given by William M. Cooper, Hamilton, '13, director of extension service at Hampton Institute.
Members of the Board of Trustees who were present at the anniversary exercises and the annual spring meeting of the board were Clarence H. Kelsey, Charles L. Bigelow, Arthur Curtiss James, William Jay Schieffele, Frank J. Darling, Samuel G. Mitchison, Terence Torbes, Alexander B. Trowbridge, the Rev. Chester B. Emerson, Henry Wilder Foote, Robert R. Moton, J. Henry Scattergood, George P. Phenix and Daniel W. Armstrong.
OLDEST GOVERNMENT
EMPLOYEE CLEARRATES
WASHINGTON, May 5—The oldest government employee in point of service celebrated Thursday the sixtieth anniversary of 'the day he became doorman for the Secretary of State.
He is Eddie Savoy, who came to Washington as a boy with General U. S. Grant. He became doorman for Hamilton Fish, Grant's Secretary of State, and has held the position continuously since.
He has been abroad with many important missions and is known by or has known most of the leading diplomats for sixty years.
ca the native population had increased faster than in any other part of Africa. Mr. Oldham quotes the record to show that instead of an increase there has a steady decline, especially in Cape Colony. He also refutes General Smuts's contention that under white control the South African natives have advanced further in education than other Africans; he says that except the whites have done nothing to educate the natives. He also disputes Smuts's contention that the whites brought economic progress to the natives, and cities instances to show that the natives are going back rapidly instead of moving forward.
The axe that Smuts has to grind is getting more and more white people to settle in Africa. He tries to establish his contention that South African conditions are ideal and to use this contention as an argument for their extension to the continent, notably East Africa. His argument that of another Australia or Canada, with the natives pushed into the background.
Oldham says that this is impracticable. In South Africa the whites, for all their policy of extermination, are only a third of the population; in East Africa they are only one-three hundredth. In vast stretches of the country white people cannot live and in some parts cannot care. He says that the idea of a white dominion cannot materialize; the white nations are indispenable.
The chief asset of Africa, he insists, is the African. Smuts himself admits that the African has great possibilities. But though he says it is wrong to regard the Africans as sub-human slaves, he says it is also wrong to treat them as men and brothers. He is trying to find a middle line by which the Africans can keep their unity with their own traditional institutions and yet serve the Europeans. He does not admit this, but it juts out plainly between the lines. The Africans should Smuts think in his world enthusiasm for self-government, thinks that the Africans should have some share in their government; but the Boer Smuts shrinks from the logical conclusion of that theory.
So the question finds its way. as all such matters must, to politics. Africa's trouble has been that its vital questions have been decided by authorities far distant from Africa. As yet, nothing has been decided by the Africans themselves, as should be done if Smuts means what he says. The vexing problem is just how great a share the Africans should be allowed in their government. If the time-honored principle of government by majors were followed the Europeans in Sweden would be outwhelmed and those in East Africa overwhelmed. In either case the whites would be voted clear out of the continent. Mr. Oldham thinks that some new form of government must be invented.
How can the white man retain his hold on Africa and still satisfy his conscience? That is what the whole problem amounts to. The white nations are determined to exploit Africa and the Africans. They have found that they cannot get along in Africa without the Africans. They have found that the Africans are men of ideas and aspirations, that the native population throbs with latent capacity and energy. Instead of serility, the European now looks for co-operation. To obtain it he must with the African, must give him education and better economic opportunities. But if this be done it necessarily follows that the African will demand a share in the government of Africa. As the Africans are men they will insist that this share be increased with them. In time there would be a serious clash.
And what would be the effect of a clash? Should the Africans in a large measure be exterminated the Europeans would be worse off than before, for they really need the African more than he needs them. It is no wonder Smuts is calling for more white people to settle in Africa. For all his humanitarian pose, he wishes to clinch his race's hold upon the great continent.

Hair becomes soft,straight easy to manage, without muss or bother-
THE CONSISTENT use of Danderine makes the most stubborn hair, soft, straight, silky, easy to arrange. And Danderine holds the hair like you arrange it! It isn't sticky or oily, doesn't show. It's the wonder hair dressing of the age!
RACE STARS of stage and screen know how important it is to have long, straight, silky and lustrous hair. But they're busy people, so they must use a simple method to beautify the hair.
THAT'S WHY so many of them use the delicately fragranced liquid known as Danderine. All they do is put a little Danderine on the brush each time they arrange their hair. Then as the brush is drawn through the hair, all excess oil is removed; the natural color is brought out; the hair fairly sparkles.
THE CRUST OF dandruff is soon dissolved by Danderine's soothing aid; the scalp is put in the pink of condition; the hair is assisted to grow long, straight, silky and abundant. Millions of bottles are used yearly by the most charming race women!

to Lose"
ANIGHT like any other night. Baby has been tucked away for hours. Mother too, sound asleep. Then—that sudden cry piercing the darkness. Colie!
How would you meet this emergency? Are you prepared to render first aid and quick comfort the moment your youngster has an upset? Or must precious time be lost in seeking assistance? Your home may be conveniently near a drugstore. And no druggist is ever without a supply of Castoria. But drugstores close at night, and there should never be an hour when you are unprepared for those occasions when every minute counts. How much better to be sure there is always a bottle of this pure vegetable preparation on your own shelf, ready for use!
Keep Castoria handy, and keep its many uses in mind. It isn't something you must save for

Yet mild as it is, old reliable Castoria soothes a restless, fretful baby like nothing else. Gentle as its action is, it most effectively checks diarrhea in the little system, or relieves constipation as children grow older. (Many mothers continue with the use of Castoria until a child is grown.)
