SLEUTH ENDS BANDIT'S CAREER OF CRIME
The Political Situation Among the Harlem Candidates for Judgeships VOTERS in the new Tenth Municipal Court district may go to the polls on Nov. 4 without the least fear or doubt but that the four principal candidates for justice of that court are thoroughly qualified, no matter which political party or organization sponsored them. The Democratic and Republican candidates for the two vacancies stand head and shoulders above most of the men who have already been elevated to that office.
1
This being true, there is no reason why we should be concerned with the individual fortunes of an one—or two—of the candidates, and we are not so concerned. We are in no way obligated to either the Republican or the Democratic party.
Now that Harlem is practically assured of the election of two Negroes to the Municipal Court bench, the next question is what additional service may the acquisition of these two places be made to render the community as a whole.
In the first place John Clifford Hawkins and Francis E. Rivers were sponsored by the only two regular Republican organizations having Negro leaders in the State of New York; while their Democratic opponents were not designated by the people in a primary contest with other contestants.
Through Col. Charles W. Fillmore leader of the Nineteenth Assembly district, and Charles W. Mitchell leader of the Twenty-first Assembly district, the two Republican candidates are obligated to duly elected county committeemen for their designations. These designations were contested in a Republican primary election without success, giving them the nominations. If elected to office on Nov. 4 no strings will be tied to them.
The Auto Guarding "Racket"
wants to break up the well organized and protected "racket" of "guarding" automobiles while the owners are attending the theatre or sporting events, and has introduced an ordinance outlawing the practice. Since this "racket" goes on right under the watchful eyes of policemen, who, from all indications, are in on it, we do not see how an ordinance is going to end it. Its enforcement would still be in the hands of these same officers of the law. Commissioner Mulrooney can put an end to this "racket" in less than a week's time, Mr. Hagan, if he wants to.

Death reached out his relentless arms Sunday night, capturing Frank Sears, address unknown, after Sears, with two companions, had escaped in a taxicab following their unsuccessful attempt to rob Detective Joseph Pavlik, white, of the Sixth division, in a hallway at 111 East 130th street.

Sears, who had been fatally wounded by the detective during the attempted holdup, was found a few minutes later by police. He was seated on the stoop of an apartment house at 45 West 132d street, where he had been left to die by his friends. He was taken to Harlem Hospital in an ambulance and was pronounced dead on his arrival there by Dr. Arnowitz. The encounter between the detective and the holdup men occurred at 10:30, when Pavlik, investigating Harlem robberies, entered the building at the 130th street address and found the men awaiting him with drawn revolvers.

These are the two questions Washington society would like to have answered, especially since the count gave his betrothal to the beautiful daughter of Mrs. Mary Church Terrell as his excuse for stowing away on the S. S. DeGrasse out of Paris, only to be detained at Ellis Island upon his arrival here and deported on the S. S. Paris Friday.
Washington newspaper reporters were unsuccessful in their efforts to get Mrs. Golnes to confirm or deny the engagement the early part of last week when they informed her of the count's predicament here in New York. Tuesday and Wednesday she was reported absent from the Shaw Junior High School in Washington, where she is a member of the teaching staff. She put in her appearance Thursday to keep a bridge club engagement at the home of Mrs. Mary C. Cottrell and on Saturday turned up here in New York City—the day after the deportation of the count—with her mother, who had come on to the city from Chicago.
Mother and daughter left Saturday for their home in Washington. New Yorkers may be a little flabbergasted to learn of the previous marriage of the late jurist's daughter—until his death her father was a Municipal Court justice in Washington—because it is not believed that the fact is generally known here and was not revealed in last week's daily and weekly newspapers dealing with the Klandestein-Terrell affair. Information of the marriage reached here from the capital the latter part of the week, along with the report that the couple is estranged.
It is not known whether or not Mrs. Golnes succeeded in seeing the count before he started his return voyage, or even whether or not she sought to see him. Both she and her mother admit knowing the count, but the former denies that she knew that he was coming to the United States.

quicker than they and Sears fell, fatally wounded. The detective's shots arousing the other tenants in the house, the two other gunmen seized their wounded comrade and escaped in a taxicab. Heavy traffic prevented Pavlik from apprehending the men. Realizing that escape was impossible with their wounded comrade, the other two-men, following the code of gangland, left him at the West 132nd street address, where he was later found in a dying condition. Detectives Garvey and Flinter of the West 136th street station have been assigned to the case.

Because of three previous felony convictions, Dawes faces a life term in the event he is convicted of the charge now pending against him. Dawes is charged by John R.

Rudolph Brown Held for Grand Jury Action in Holdup
Rudolph Brown, 40, 417 West 152d street, who was one of five-men arrested in connection with the kidnapping of Caspar Holstein in September, 1828, was held without bail for the Grand Jury when arraigned Sunday on a charge of robery before Magistrate Smith in Heights Court.
Brown was arrested in connection with the recent holdup of Edward Spurr, 561 West 189th street, who was robbed of $658 after he had collected rents at 134 West 133d street, on August 11. According to Detectives Behman and Webber of the West 136th street station, he did not take part in the actual holdup, but pointed the victim out to two men who committed the robbery and who are still at large. There have been a number of such robberies in Harlem in the past few months, the police say.
At the time of his arrest in connection with the kidnapping of Holstein, the well-known club and fraternal man, Brown was charged by the police with being the "tip off" man for four white men who abducted Holstein and kept him a prisoner for a few days, during which time they sought to collect a ransom of $50,000 from him.
Brown and the four white men were arrested, but were later discharged when Holstein failed to identify them. Brown when released asked for a police escort, stating he feared for his life at the hands of friends of Holstein. At the time of his arrest Brown was manager of the Alhambra Ballroom, 126th street and Seventh avenue. On June 28 Brown was arrested on a charge of possessing policy numbers and in $1,000 ball for trial in Special Sessions.

OFFICIAL
HAITI ELECTS FIRST NATIONAL CONGRESS IN THIRTEEN YEARS
Through United States Marines America Has Been Real Ruler of Island Republic Sordid Chapter of Misrule
president of the republic is to be chosen from among the senators elected. At this writing the outcome of the election is not known. The election was to have been the first "free citation" in Haiti since the United States decided, in 1915, to give Haiti a stable form of government. Former High Commissioner Russell, through the State Department, said that the marines would not interfere in any way whatsoever.
Under U. S. Marines Since 1917.
Haiti's present government, was forced on her. In 1917 the marines, at the point of the pistol, chased the elected representatives of Haiti out of the legislative chamber, because these representatives refused to endorse the course the United States was taking, and since that time the country has been governed by a Council of State, appointed by the President, chosen through the force of the United States.
Tuesday's election was intended to create the outside appearance of fairness. But there can be no fairness of freedom in Haiti as long as the United States controls all of Haiti's government money, including the President's salary. The plain, simple attitude of the Haitian people is that of wanting each and every hated white American face to get out of Haiti quickly. The Haitians want to run their own country. They want men in office whose hatred of Americans can be depended upon and who will act speedily to rid the country of United States influence.
Virtual Dictatorship.
The spirit of Haiti and the will of the United States collide upon that point. The United States must have Haitian leaders at the helm who will be "reasonable" and "go along." Haiti wants a leader who will give Uncle Sam a good kick in the pants and send him back home. The pickings are tough, anyway you take them. The Haitians may contrive to elect a belligerent patriot, but as soon
Remanded for Grand Jury In Attack on Giants' Man
Joseph King, 35, 104 West 134th street, was arraigned in the West Side Court on Monday on a charge of felonious assault and held without bail for the Grand Jury.
King, who was the elevator man in an apartment house at 315 West Seventy-ninth street, had been running errands for some people in the house who were giving a party attended by Shanty Hogan, white catcher of the New York Giants. Some one invited King in for a drink, but Hogan objected, finally throwing King, a small man, out of the apartment. According to King, Hogan was intoxicated.
When Hogan left the party in the early hours, King took him to the ground floor and attacked him with a baseball bat and a knife.

Dr. Reese Surrenders in Court on Charge of Using Icepick
Dr. George Reese, 33, a dentist, 197 St. Nicholas avenue, was held in $2,000 ball for a hearing tomorrow when arraigned Sunday before Magistrate Stern in Harlem Court on a charge of assault made by his brother-in-law, Frank O'Neill, 2472 Seventh avenue.
The assault occurred in the office of Dr. Reese on April 21 last. The dentist, according to the police, was separated from his wife, who because of her ill health had been advised to leave the country. Dr. Reese refused to sign papers which would enable her to secure a passport. O'Neill went to see the dentist about the matter and they became involved in a dispute during which Dr. Reese is alleged to have stabbed O'Neill twice in the chest with an icepick.
Dr. Reese was arrested after the assault and released in bail of $2,000. He admitted the stabbing, which he claimed was accidental and which he used to defend himself from attack by his brother-in-law. The case was adjourned to enable Reese to produce witnesses. He then disappeared and his bail was declared forfeit and a bench warrant issued for his arrest. On Sunday Dr. Reese surrendered himself in court and the Magistrate set tomorrow for a hearing.
Alleged to Have Fled From Chicago Soon After Auditors Began to Check His Accounts
Oliver E. Robinson, 48, former grand secretary of the Pullman Porters' Benefit Association of America with headquarters in Chicago, was held in $10,000 bail when arraigned before Magistrate Goodman of Washington Heights Court Monday charged with being a fugitive from justice.
Robinson, who was arrested at the request of Chicago police authorities, is charged with defrauding the porters' organization of $20,000 by skillful manipulation of its sick and benefit fund. As secretary of the organization, Robinson handled claims. Frequently, a porter would send in a claim for one week's benefit, but if the illness lasted for a considerable time he would send in a
9. —Judge Henry Horner of the November 5 an action brought s. Eudora Binga, wife of Jesse the court appoint a conservator for the estate of Mr. Binga.
Mrs. Binga, through her attorney, stated that her husband was mentally incompetent to manage his affairs. A physician who had attended the banker testified that he was suffering from 'agitated depression."
Nearly a million dollars' worth of assets have been signed over by Mr. Binga to one man since the bank closed, according to Mrs. Binga.
Officials of Great Lake: Elks' Lodge sought this week to have Binga taken into custody in order to obtain satisfaction on a claim of $18,000, insurance money which they allege the banker collected on their building after a fire, and refused to turn over to them.
The building was being bought from Binge by the lodge when the fire occurred. The lodge had repairs made and the insurance company made payment in due time, but to Binga. The contractors for the repairs now seek payment from the lodge, which claims never to have had the money.
The attempt on the part of Mrs. Binga to have a conservator appointed may mean that reversal in the banker's affairs has driven him out of his mind, or it may indicate a strategic effort on her part to place his assets out of the reach of creditors.

Charged with breaking into the Harlem Hospital nurses' home and stealing foodstuffs valued at $50, Robert Dougherty, 30. 56 East 132d street, was held in $1,500 ball for a further hearing when arraigned last Wednesday in Heights Court.
The alleged theft took place on September 23. Dougherty was arrested on complaint of Nancy Sullivan, dictician of the hospital.

Robinson, it claims, but withhold one of the checks.
The disclosure of the fraud perpetrated by the secretary came after Robinson had resigned from his position on June 30, last, disappearing from Chicago. It is alleged that he resigned only after he became aware that auditors from the Pullman Company were investigating his accounts.
The Amsterdam News of October 1 carried an account of Robinson's disappearance from Chicago. At the time he had been reported in various places, among them Detroit, Toronto and New York. The porters' losses were amply covered by the U. S. Fidelity and Bonding Company and their organization made no effort to locate him.
Robinson was born in New York and, working on the theory that he would return here, Robinson was arrested last week by Detective Nelson of the West 136th street station. When arrested, Robinson refused to reveal his address. He was elected to the position of secretary to the P. P. B. A. in 1923 and received a salary of $240 per month, but was said to have been given to the extravagant expenditure of money which, in time led to his spending money not his to spend. He is being held awaiting an order of extradition from Chicago police authorities.
Officer Finds Man Dead; Victim Believed Burglar
An unidentified man was found dead early Saturday in an alley at 1 West 108th street. He was discovered by Patrolman William Dore of the East 101th street station. The body was bruised and several bones were broken. A pile of brick from a chimney of the apartment house lay about the dead man. 2 victim's socks were on his hands. Police believe the man was a bulglar attempting to cross from the roof of 3 West 108th street to the top of the other house. They deduced that he leaped and caught the chimney, which broke beneath his weight.

It was Clifford Thomas, 37, 211 West 146th street, and Miss Florence Moron (not Mason), 32, 164 St. Nicholas avenue, who obtained a license to marry.
It was erroneously stated in last week's issue that Rokand Johnson, 24, 523 Macon street, Brooklyn, who died October 4, was not graduated from New York University in June because of his illness. Mr. Johnson was graduated, but was unable to attend the graduation exercises because he was ill at the time.

One of the men managed to scurry away in a taxiic, while Stubbs was caught when his gun was emptied.
Stubbs is alleged to have confessed that he and his companion were responsible for nine other robberies in Harlem.

Three Whites Held In Harlem Assault
Three Whites Held In Harlem Assault
Thre white men, including a policeman, who attempted to forc e their way at the point of a gun into the Clam House, 146 West 133d street, one of Harlem's popular night resorts and eating places for slummers from downtown, were held in bail for a further examination next Tuesday on charges of assault Monday, when arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate Goodman. The policeman, John J. Glenn, 37, a member of the staff of John Bolan, deputy chief inspector of police, was held in $1,000 bail after he had been stripped of his badge and gun and suspended. The other officers, John Reilly, 36, 2740 Sedgewick avenue, and Paul Newcomb, 323 East Kingsbridge and both of the Bronx, were held, without bail.
The three, who had been drinking, rapped on the door of the night resort at 2 a.m. and demanded admission. Glarence Green, 305 West 120th street, an employee, refused to let the white men enter. His refusal caused Glenn to thrust his gun into Green's face.
Being that Green's life was threatened, Pedro Rivera, a taxicab driver who lives at 1883 Seventh avenue, leaped upon the officer and attempted to wrest the gun from him. The gun exploded in the melle and a general fractas ensued with the three whites battling Rivera and Green.
Attracted by the noise of battle, Patrolman Montagne of the 136th street station rushed up to the live and arrested the whites after diving into Glen. When the three were taken to the West 136th street station Glenn was examined b, a police surgeon, who said the officer had been drinking, but was not unfit for duty.

Mrs. Cabral was awakened by a noise and found Ferez in the apartment, she said. Oms, she said, acted as a "lookout" and remained outside the open window.

Court Padlocks Residence In Richmond for One Year
RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 13 (ANP)—A man's house might be his castle, but for the next twelve months Albert Harris, William Mitchell and Louis Grant will not be able to enter their castle at 246 Cordova to the fact that the Federal Court has ordered it padlocked as a "public place."
The home-owners, however, might not be able to occupy the house, anyway, as they yet have to face charges of violating the liquor laws, such as manufacturing, possessing, transporting and selling whiskey.
The padlocking of a residence is a precedent in this city. Neighbors of Harris, Mitchell, Grant et al filed an injunction asking Judge Groner to padlock the house at 446 Corbin street as "a public nuisance," and when the defendants did not appear to defend the complaint the court issued the order which enjoins them, their agents, servants, and employees from selling, manufacturing, storing or barring any ardent spirits on the premises, which shall not be occupied for a year, and also that the house shall be padlocked and kept closed for a like period.

When he engaged in a dispute with a prospective customer over the delivery of ice, Dominico Magliano, 36, white iceman of 320 Pleasant nue, was shot and perhaps fatally wounded early evening in the hallway of an apartment house at 230 West 142d street.
The argument between Magliano and his assailant, who escaped following the shooting, occurred in the second-floor hallway of the building shortly before 6 o'clock. Magliano received a gunshot wound in the right side of his face. He was rushed to Herlem Hospital, where his condition is considered serious by Dr. Amarosa, who attended him. He told police that he did not know the name of his assailant. Detectives Garvey and Flinter of the West 136th street station are working on the case.
A few minutes after the white ice cream was shot, Louis Davis, 39, 2718 Eight Avenue, was stabbed several times in the abdomen by an unknown man with whom he had quarreled at the Eighth avenue address. The man made his escape following the stabbing and Davis was removed to Herlem Hospital, where his condition is regarded as serious.

Rises From Job as Janitor To Gas Appliance Salesman
Intelligence, Accuracy and Courtesy Win Promotion
The career of John L. Ruffins, 104-20 Thirty-second avenue, Corona, L. with the New York Consolidated Gas Company, is one of continued progress and achievement. Starting fifteen years ago as a janitor, Mr. Ruffins has advanced himself to the rank of chief gas appliances through his unusual ability to do things thoroughly, quickly, and courteously.
On the morning of January 11, 1915, Mr. Ruffins reported for work at the New York and Queens Gas Company, in Flushing. It wasn't long, however, before the manner in which the new janitor performed his duties attracted the attention of the company's officials.
Better Job.
They required possibilities in the man, and decided that he was unusual employee who would bear watching. As soon as the opportunity presented itself, in 1919, he was promoted to a gas meter indexer.
The job of indexing gas meters calls for intelligence and accuracy. It is an important position, since it involves direct contact with the public and the customers, placing on the shoulders of the meter reader the responsibility for making friends or the company. Accuracy is important because mistakes in the reading of the meter lead to complaints and dissatisfaction on the part of the customers.
Mr. Ruffins has his duties exceedingly well and placed himself in line for further promotion. One year he was chosen as the meter reader who outshone all others in his standards of courtesy and neatness, punctuality and regular attendance, low percentage of errors and carelessness, high indexing average and

Roy fussed and fumed for a few days, protesting to the Americans that if they insisted on the appointment all he would have to leave him and that he would be high and dry with no place to go. But the Americans did not give in. They stuck out for what they wanted and a new Haitian cabinet was found.
An analogous situation would be this: Mussolini might decide that government in the United States was not what he thought it should be. He would send his gunbobs and sailboats to take charge of the country. Then he would educational system to suit his ideas of what was good for the United

The first signor whom Mussolini might appoint as commissioner of education would make a bad job out of his work and Mussolini would appoint a successor who was persona non grata to us.

Then Mr. Hoover would pick another, and Signor Mussolini's commissioner would stay in.
Haiti More Democratic Than U. S.
Under the circumstances, Haiti's elections are much more "popular" than those in the United States.
There is no area in Haiti where large numbers of the citizens are deliberately deprived of the vote as in the former part of the United States. One-tenth of the population of the United States is "legally" disfranchised. Whoever does not vote in Haiti fails to do so either because he does not want to or does not know how.

Dense ignorance always misses the ballot box in its grab for the bread box. It will take time to enlighten the hill billies of Haiti just it has taken time to get to the white hill billies of the United States. President Hoover started a school for some of them in Virginia last winter. There are Haitians who don't know that there is such a country as the United States. There are Americans who think Lindbergh is a cheese. Citizens Disarmed. Nobody need fear violence in a Haitian election.

Haitians even have to hunt with sticks and stones. The people are completely disarmed.
Even if they were not, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia or any vigorous southern city could give the Haitians advanced lessons in election violence.

Arrest of Two White Men in Alabama Points to Innocence of Man Suspected
Arrest of Two White Men in Alabama Points to Innocence of Man Suspected
Victim's Own Son and the Foreman of His Plant Accused in Murder — Arrival of Troops Prevented Lynching Bee
HUNTSVILLE, Ala., Oct. 13 (ANP).—White folks of this city were shocked by the unexpected arrest of Thomas Ross, the only son of H. E. Ross, and R. F. Mathey, white foreman of the Ross plant, on charges of murder in the first degree in connection with the slaying of the elder Ross and the shooting of his wife, which occurred some weeks ago.
Following the killing, G. H. Henderson was arrested, charged with the crime of killing the white man and shooting his wife, and only the protection of two units of State troops ordered to the scene prevented him from being lynched, along with another colored prisoner also charged with killing a white man.
Governor Bibb Graves, however, had other plains and dispatched troops here armed with tear gas bombs and machine-guns and ordered them to protect the prisoners at all costs, and they did, and the prisoners were rushed to Birmingham.
dence which had resulted in the arrest of the white man, stating that it would be laid before the court when the preliminary hearing is held Wednesday at Madison.
Henderson has maintained from the beginning that he is innocent of the crime, but is still being held in the Birmingham jail for further investigation and also for safe-keeping. If he is exonerated it is believed here that he will seek other climes for his future habitat which would lend a greater degree of safety to his life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
At the time of the first arrest officers were told by Mrs. Ross that a colored man invaded their home and shot her husband down in cold blood and in the struggle she was shot. She described the intruder and the description fitted Henderson perfectly. Despite the vivid and graphic description of the brutal affair and the accurate account of the appearance of the killer, who was seen in the dark, officers entertained an idea that the crime was committed by a white man with his face blackened. Tuesday young Ross and the white foreman were arrested.
Again "fearing mob-violence" the prisoners were rushed to Birmingham for safe-keeping, while the local populace was awe-striken: and agnast, not over the fact that a man who was probably innocent of the crime had almost been lynched, but by the arrest of two white men charged with the crime.
Officers refused to disclose the evi-
dence which had resulted in the arrest of the white men, stating that it would be laid before the court when the preliminary hearing is held Wednesday at Madison. Henderson has maintained from the beginning that he is innocent of the crime, but is still being held in the Birmingham jail for further investigation and also for safe-keeping. If he is exonerated it is believed here that he will seek other climes for his future habitat which would lend a greater degree of safety to his life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.

Observers Think 28,000 Negroes Are On Books as Registration Ends Here
Increases Indicated as Twenty-first Swells Figures Along With Twenty-second Nineteenth District Lags
Although prospective voters in the Harlem districts put off enrolling until the last two days, the uptown community managed to place a creditable number of names on the city's books before the registration period ended Saturday night.
While no scientific and accurate estimates of the Negro registration were available, political observers were certain that 28,000 to 35,000 placed themselves in the position to vote in the November election.
The Twenty-first Assembly district, which has the largest concentration of Negro population, enrolled 15,517 persons. This is slightly below the 1029 figure of 15,932, when there were contests for the mayoralty and the added impetus of the campaign of G. B. Belaly for Congress.
The figure, however, fell below 1923, when 21,388 persons were registered in the Twenty-first. That was the year of the Presidential election. A considerable increase is shown over 1923, when contests similar to the present ones were being waged. A total of 14,350 persons were enrolled that year.
thirty years.
It is estimated that 10,000 of the 1930 crop of prospective voters in the Twenty-first are Negroes.
The Twenty-second district, which has probably a few more white than colored voters, placed 16,816 voters on the books. The figure for 1929 was 16,947, for 1928 it was 24,182 and it was 16,677 in 1926. Those who profess to be informed on Harlem politics assert that there is a considerable increase of Negro voters in the Twenty-second, which has been swelled by hundreds of persons moving from lower Harlem and the midtown districts.
The Nineteenth Assembly district registered 12,763 persons. There were 14,055 in 1929, 17,678 in 1928 and 12,883 in 1926. Perhaps 7,000 Negro voters are enrolled there today.
To these figures must be added perhaps 4,000 from the Thirteenth, where 16,737 persons registered this year. This district has shown little increase. The Seventeenth district and the Twentieth will add perhaps another 1,500 to the totals.
Figures from the Board of Elections showed that the Harlem registration offices were swamped on the last day. In nearly every district there were almost three times as many placed on the books as any other day. In the Twenty-first 5,611 enrolled, 5,930 in the Twenty-second, and 5,196 in the Nineteenth.
Bail Skippers Held for Trial in "Numbers" Case
Two alleged "policy" collectors who skipped their ball of $500 each were held in ball of $2,500 each for trial in Special Sessions when arrested and given a hearing Thursday in Harlem Court.
The two were Benjamin F. Duncan, 32, 155 West 123d street, and Louise Johnson, 22, of the same address. They were arrested in their home on July 1 by Detective Breslin of Inspector McNell's staff. The officer said he found the two in possession of a large number of slips.
After their assignment in Harlem Court the two failed to appear for a further hearing and warrants were issued for their arrest. Police say Duncan is also wanted for skipping ball on a similar charge under the name of Green.

Broun Hails Revolt Of Negro Citizens
Broun Hails Revolt Of Negro Citizens
Socialist Candidate for Congress Scores Republican Attitude
In an article appearing today in November Crisis, Heywood Broun, Socialist candidate for Congress, hails the political revolt of American colored voters.
Calling the successful fight against the confirmation of Judge Parker to the Supreme Court "one of the most useful incidents which has ever occurred to give the American Negro a consciousness of his voting power," Mr. Broun adds: "I am all for a vigorous revolt on the part of the Negro against the status quo. I do not have to repeat that in saying 'revolt I do not mean armed warfare. There are things so much more powerful than bayonets and gunpowder. "An idea can blow up heavier armor than any bullets can pierce. I mean it is a mistake for the Negro to submit tamely and wait for a heaven beyond the clouds. I think he ought to be up and constantly articulate in his righteous demand for a fair deal now.
"And when we Socialists speak of brotherhood, we mean it in the fullest sense of the word. I know that I do."
Mr. Broun in his article charges the Republican party with offering the Negro "very little save a few scraps of Federal patronage," and says of Governor Smith that his timidity in face of the solid South cost him Negro votes he might have had.
"The easiest and most direct way for the Negro to express his protest against existing political conditions," says Mr. Broun, "is to throw in his lot with the minority party."
Drunken Man Goes Home (Wrong One)
His Two "Lodgers" Clean Out House, but Whiskey Guzzler Is Freed
Benjamin Ottawa, 28, 2167 Fifth avenue, will probably make sure he is sober when he starts home again after a round of Harlem's drinking places.
Ottawa was discharged on a burglary complaint last Wednesday in Harlem Court after he had mistaken the home of Mrs. Helen Williams, 2169 Fifth avenue, for his own.
On his way home Ottawa met a couple in search of a room. He agreed to let them lodge in his apartment for $4 a week. Accompanied by the two, Ottawa went to the Williams home instead of his own.
His keys failed to open the door, so he called a locksmith and had the lock removed. While Ottawa was eating in the kitchen the house was ransacked by the couple, who took dresses and other articles valued at $175.
When Mrs. Williams returned home she found the door ajar. She ran to the street and brought back Patrolman Shevin of the East 126th street station. The officer found Ottawa asleep in bed. The intruder resented being disturbed and demanded to know what right the policeman had to invade his home. Shevin refused to discuss the matter and hailed Ottawa before Magistrate Stern.
A month-old white baby boy left in the care of Mrs. Emily Johnson, 559 Warwick street, Brooklyn, was sent to the Kings County Hospital foundling ward Saturday when the woman took the child to police after the mother failed to call for her offspring.

Walker Will Aid Harlem Democrats; Tuttle to Speak at Abyssinian Soon
Candidates Pushing Campaigns for Votes in November Election—Perkins Urges Support for G.O.P. Primary Winners
The battle for votes in Harlem is expected to wax bitter tonight when Mayor, Walker addresses a meeting at Abyssinian Baptist Church, 132 West 138th street, in support of the Democratic ticket in upper Manhattan.
The meeting was arranged by the non-partisan committee for the election of James S. Watson and Charles E. Toney, Democrats, to the Tenth District Municipal Court. The two Tammany candidates for justice, Congressman Joseph A. Gavagan of the Twenty-first; J. E. Stephens, candidate for Assembly in the Nineteenth, and David Paris, white, candidate for Assembly in the Twenty-first are the principal speakers.
white, Democratic candidate for re-election from the Twenty-first Congressional district, followed Mr. Palge on the platform. "This," he said, "is the time for campaign promises. Let conscience and not color dictate to you the use of the ballot. Vote for those whom you feel assured will live up to their campaign promises."
The Republicans will take the floor at the same church Wednesday, October 29, when Charles H. Tuttle, candidate for governor, is expected to speak.
Members of the State ticket scheduled to speak with Mr. Tuttle are Senator Caleb H. Baumes, for lieutenant-governor; Daniel Conway, for controller; Isadore Bookstein, for attorney-general.
Local candidates expected are Mortimer Kraus, candidate for congressman in the Twenty-first; Edmund O. Austin, for assemblyman in the Twenty-first; Myles A. Paige, for assemblyman in the Nineteenth, and John Clifford Hawkins and Francis E. Rivers, candidates for justices of the Tenth District Municipal Court. Leaders, workers and candidates in the Twenty-first Assembly district met to discuss campaign issues Thursday evening at the Appomattox Republican Club. Assemblyman Lamar Perkins, who was defeated in the primary when he contested the designations of Hawkins and Rivers for the justiceship nominations, made an address in which he urged full support of the G. O. P. ticket. Kraus, the Congressional candidate, promised full justice to every voter if he is elected to Congress. He denounced prohibition and pledged himself to aid for World War veterans in adjustment of their pensions.
A relief at getting away from racial issues in the political life of Harlem was expressed Sunday afternoon by Attorney Myles A. Paige. Republic candidate for the Assembly from the Nineteenth district, at the St. Mark's Lyceum of St. Mark's M. E. Church, 138th street and Edgecombe avenue.
The meeting was held under the auspices of the Women's League of Voters, a non-partisan body, of which Mrs. Bessye Bearden is the president, and the Clio Welfare Center, which is headed by Dr. Adena Mhott.
Among the changes which Mr. Paige hopes to effect in the event of his election to the Assembly are a new welfare compensation law, whereby the injured workman receives pay from the day of his injury instead of after a week as under the present law; some practical form of unemployment insurance; and Senatorial reapportionment in order that Harlem may have representation in the upper house.
Congressman Joseph Gavagan,

office from the Twenty-first, Mr. Gavagan said: "Mr. Delany refused to meet me on my own ground but raised the question of color and race. His campaign became a crusade which was very foolish and was the cause of his own defeat." James S. Watson, Democratic candidate for justice of the Municipal Court, said the election of two Negro judges will serve as an incentive to the youth of the race throughout the country. More than mere legal ability, he said, is needed to adequately fill the position as these judges must have the virtue of human understanding. Because of the attention with which they will be watched all over America, great care should be exercised in their selection, he asserted.
Explains Women's Program.
The purpose of the Women's League of Voters was explained by Mrs. Willette C. Rowe, secretary of the organization. A non-partisan body, she declared, it is concerned with all vital civic and social problems of today. Dr. Minott outlined briefly the work of the Clio Welfare Center, 278 West 127th street. The promotion of child health as well as the providing of wholesome amusement and recreation are perhaps its greatest objectives, Dr. Minott declared.

Prior to the commencement of the services, the body of the distinguished educator, who had labored many years for the advancement of the institute, had lain in state in the chapel and had been viewed by persons from all walks of life of both races, who came to pay their last tribute to the departed. A student guard of honor stood at attention. "Dust and Ashes," an Easter spiritual sung by the institute choir under the direction of Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, served beginning of the touching services, and was followed by the scriptural invocation of the Rev. S. Arthur Devan, the institute chaplain. The Rev. E. E.

New Moscow Paper Fights
American Chauvanism
MOSCOW. Oct. 10. (CNA)—The first newspaper in the English language appeared in Moscow today. It is called the Moscow News and is an eight-page periodical which will appear every week. (A Russian week consists of four working days and one day of rest.) The paper is edited by Anna Louise Strong, assisted by a staff among whom is Jack Chen, son of the former Chinese Ambassador, Eugene Chen.
The publication of this paper is a direct result of the incident which occurred in Stalingrad where two white Americans throw a colored out of a mess hall. The paper is intended for the American specialists and the families in the Soviet Union, who now are armed with 2,000, many scattered in outlying points. The paper is being used by the Russian workers to teach strangers from the United States that the American institutions of race prejudice and white chauvinism have no place in the Workers' Republic.

Attempt at Voluntary Segregation Two Years Ago Blamed for Ugly Situation at One of Country's Most Noted Schools.
DETROIT, Oct. 13 (ANP). — The embers of segregation which have been smouldering for two years at the University of Michigan were fanned into a flame again a few weeks ago when girl students were refused admission to the Mosher Jordan dormitory at the university, and were directed to rooming.houses in the neighborhood, wherever such places could be found. Because of this seeming open attempt at discrimination, which is against the Civil Rights Law of Michigan, some of the students returned to their homes in disgust.

The present trouble is an aftermath of the move two years ago to establish a separate home for Negro students. The young ladies, perhaps, thinking they were making a wise move, based their action upon the fact that there were no dormitories at the University of Michigan. At that time they had no idea that the move would lead up to such a widespread controversy and would give the outside world the notion that the segregation was a move on the part of the university.
The fact of the matter is, there are separate league houses for other groups given by wealthy members of these groups, and while there were no Negro philanthropists who would give league houses for these students, the girls sought to build a house for themselves through the Michigan State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs.
According to Mrs. Kate Johnson, president of City Federation of this city, the State Federation accepted the idea coming from the young women, seeing no particular wrong in it, as it was not an attempt on the part of the girls to segregate themselves but rather to foresee in an endeavor to prepare a stable place in keeping with those given to other groups.
The only apparent mistake on the part of the women was in failing to realize the difficulty of raising the required amount of money. After one year only $300 had been raised. The Federation finally carried the idea to the authorities of the university, were quick to accept it and promised to build the building, furnish it at cost $10,000, and place a woman on the board of management of the university selected by the Federation.
All of this would have been carried through, said Mrs. Johnson, but for the interference of a firm of local lawyers and a prominent minister here, who it is said got the wrong conception of the whole thing and interpreted it as Jim-Growish, and immediately took the matter up with university authorities in a spirit of antagonism. "This is not accepting a segregated house any more than accepting a Y. M. C. A. or Y. W. C. A. the Johnson said. Since the completion of the $900,000 dormitory, which it is claimed was built by private interests and not by the state and was opened this year, Negro girls have been refused admittance. Meanwhile, the Federation has wiped its hands of the whole matter.

LAST week on this page we stated that the Republican Party of today includes all the intolerant, bigoted, and reactionary elements that are naturally hostile to the Negro, and that the same people who backed the candidacy of Judge Parker are behind Messrs.

The NEW YORK EVENING POST—the most vicious anti-Negro sheet in the North—in its issue of October 4th, published an editorial favoring the candidacy of one of the Republican candidates. Now let us see what this Republican newspaper really thinks of the Negro.
Commenting on the rejection of Judge Parker, The Post in its issue of May 8. 1930, said:
"To vote rejection simply for the fear of the Negro vote was an act most discouraging to Americans.
"It is discouraging because it erects a precedent which will make it passing difficult for a Southerner to win appointment to the Supreme Court. Judge Parker, in a political speech of some years ago, but expressed the belief which practically every Southern white man feels about the danger of Negroes in politics.
Total $6,937,098
In addition, new traffic lights have been installed on Fifth, Lenox and to be on Seventh and Eighth Avenues. Each traffic light costs about $1,000.
"But we wish that the President would accept the gauge of battle thrown at him by the Senate Chamber by appointing a new high-class Southern jurist and starting all over a fight on the issue."
The attitude of a city administration toward its Negro citizens can be measured by the number of Colored city employees.
The anti-Negro attitude of The Post is further shown in its comments on the election of Mayor Thompson in Chicago in its issue of April 7, 1927:
In 1917, at the close of the last REPUBLICAN administration, the total number of COLORED EMPLOYEES (not counting school teachers) was 172, with an aggregate salary of $150,844.
"One of the most unfortunate features of Thompson's victory in the Chicago Mayoralty election is the appearance of a class vote. In Chicago, it is agreed that the Negroes voted en masse for Thompson in gratitude for both the defensible and the indefensible favors he had done them. It is easy to understand the feeling which impelled them to take this step, but it is also undeniable that in taking it they showed themselves unworthy of the franchise." In its issue of April 6, 1927, The Post gave its attitude on the HARLEM NEGRO
In 1929 the total number of COLORED CITY EMPLOYEES (not counting school teachers) was 1,675, with an aggregate salary of $2,602,375.
"The election of William Hale Thompson as Mayor of Chicago is little short of a national as well as a local disgrace. The reasons are apparently three: Corrupt politics, the Negroes, and Volsteadism. . . .
In 1917, when the REPUBLICANS left office, the grand total of NEGRO CITY EMPLOYEES (including school teachers) was 247, drawing annually $260,844.
"The Negro majority of 55,000 votes, had it gone to Dever instead of Thompson, would have turned the election.
In 1929, after twelve years of DEMOCRATIC rule, the grand total of NEGRO CITY EMPLOYEES was 2,275, drawing annually $3,852,375.
"The Negroes were brought to Chicago during the war, were welcomed by Thompson, were given the organized vice privileges and are bound to Thompson, body and soul. Chicago, like Indianapolis and other Northern cities, is learning what Negro control means, and why the South has kept these voters from the ballot box. MAY THE DAY NEVER COME WHEN HARLEM RUNS NEW YORK."
Nothing could more eloquently testify to the great fairness of the successive Democratic Administrations.
The party which has evidenced its sincerity and interest in the welfare of the Negro in New York, as shown by the facts above, endorses TONEY and WATSON.
THE POST is the leading Republican paper in New York City. It speaks for that party. Its utterances here quoted disclose the real sentiment or opinion of the Republican Party toward the Negro.

Success of Idlewild, Michigan's Resort Suggests Growth of Negro Leisure Class
Born Ten Years Ago, Colony Boasts of 700 Cottages, Not Including Paradise, Terrace and Heights Developments Nearby
DETROIT, Oct. 13 (ANP). If hard times and unemployment are prevalent throughout America, there were few evidences of their ravages in the attendance this year at Idlewild, the famous summer resort, which its directors say has just closed the most successful season in its existence.
Almost phenomenal has been the history of Idlewild. Born a scant ten years ago, located in northern Michigan, hundreds of miles from any large city or center of Negro population, being some 275 miles from Chicago and 250 miles from Detroit, it still attracts diphtheria to the North South, East and West to whom the year seems incomplete without a week or a month having been spent in Idlewild.
those who want the galaxy of social life find it in the hotel lobby or the clubhouse, in horseback riding, the bridge and whist tournaments on the broad veranda of the club, to which the ladies repair gown and glove as though they were on Grand boulevard, or Seventh avenue, or in the nightly dances and frequent enbattes held in the great Purple Palace, in the one or two rather fewer
Perhaps its perennial popularity is due to the substantial character of its summer population. Residents of Idlewild proper—that is, the Township of Idlewild—have built 700 cottages, many of them pretty and costly modern auffirs. Paradise, Idlewild Terrace and Idlewild Heights, more recent developments, which adjoin the original Idlewild, have 300 cottages so that 800 have permanent residents in summer homes there. Too, 150 folk now make their homes there the year around.
A more beautiful bit of country would be difficult to find. The entire section is dotted with lakes, in which the anglers try their luck, while bathing, canoeing, power-toating, good fishing and kindred sports are at their very doors in Lake Idlewild, a beautiful lake, which winds around in four or five inlets with a shore line eight miles long. Forests of hemlock, pine, and spruce add to the beauty of the spot and, despite the hundreds of less one is on the lake, it is difficult to see more than a dozen at once, so tucked away are they in the recesses of the woods. The result is privacy, quiet and rest for those who desire it, while

The nineteenth annual meeting of the Utopia Neighborhood Club was held on Monday night at 170 West 130th street. Mrs. Daisy C. Reed, who has been president since the inception of the club in 1811, entertained the members with a dinner on this occasion.

Chase.
The monthly board meeting of the Utopia Children's House was held last week at 45 West at 133d street. The committee members have volunteered to raise money to furnish the rooms of this new building as follows: Mrs. Esther Bright, girl's dressing room; Mrs. Bernia Sutin, bathroom; Mrs. Ellie Ayer, library; Utopia Junior League, dining room.

DEMONSTRATES USE OF
NEW APEX SHAMPOO OIL
Mrs. Sara Spencer Washington, founder of the Apex system of beauty culture, has placed on the market a new oil shampoo. More than 300 of her agents witnessed a demonstration of the use of this product on Sunday night at 200 West 183th street. Besides not leaving her hair stiff or brittle, this oil, it is believed, will prevent the hair from turning gray.
J. Barksdale Brown, sales manager and Frank Hallestoki, the new advertising manager, gave short talks on the policy of the Apex Company at this same meeting.
who visit it. It is too far from the cities to attract undesirables, and the character of the permanent investors, who own their cottages and are determined to maintain the standards of the place, keep it on a high plane. Good roads, a boon of the past two years, a new electric lighting system, and a permanent outdoor showroom, the features which added to the attractiveness of the resort this year.
Idlewild and its near neighbor, Woodland, are but two of a dozen resorts which are being developed in different sections of the country. Highland Beach, Cedar Haven and Egg Harbor in Maryland. Spring Lake in New Jersey, the Saybrook Colony in Connecticut, and Buckroe Beach in Virginia are among the spots which summer resorters are wont to gather at. It takes time and money to make summer playgrounds either necessary or successful, so that the growth of these pleasure hvens suggests a new and growing leisure class, made possible, perhaps, by a growing economic security and solidarity.

Howard Law School Greets Inspection
Officials Confident Program Meets Requirements of Bar Ass'n
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—To determine the qualifications of the Howard University School of Law for approval by the American Bar Association, an inspection of the school will be made on October 15 by Will Sharhoff, advisor of the section of legal education and admissions to the bar. This is the first time that the association has made such an introduction of a law school devoted primarily to the education of Negro students.
Standards of the American Bar Association insist upon two years of college work as a prerequisite to legal study, together with a law course of three years for full time day students, or four years for part time evening students. They further require that the school be adept at business and equipped with library or not less than 7,500 approved volumes. It is also provided that at least three members of the faculty devote their entire time to the school, and that the school shall not be conducted as a commercial enterprise. The Howard University School of Law meets all of these requirements and confidently expects to pass the rigid tests provided by this association-one of the only law schools in the United States not on the American Bar Association's approved list.
In 1938 a full-time, three-year day school was instituted, with the appointment of three full-time professors. The faculty now consists of four full-time professors and a full-time librarian, with five other part-time members of the faculty and an assistant librarian. With the elimination of obsolete editions and duplicates, the library now approximates 10,000 volumes. The School is housed in its space building at 420 Fifth Street, N.W. opposite Judicary Square. The building has recently been thoroughly renovated throughout and equipped with modern facilities for the comfort and convenience of both students and faculty.
Rum-Crazed Man Shoots Three Whites in Newark
Grazed by drink from his c m still, John Wynne, 502 Hunterdon street, Newark, went on a rampage in his neighborhood Saturday evening. Three white persons, one a woman, were shot by Wynne. According to police, Wynne, after imbibing too few of his fiery liquor, barricaded himself in his second-story apartment with a pistol a d a bourn and amused himself by firing both from his window. Those who were injured by Wynne were George Miller, 51; Mrs. Sophie Zelest and her son, Fred, 13, all of whom live at 501 Hunterdon street, directly across from Wynne's house. Miller was shot in w r. w. Mrs. Zelest in the right wrist and left shoulder, and her son in the chest, were trapped at the City Hospital. Wynne was captured only after he had been shot in the right leg by Patrolman John Hauser and four tear gas bombs had been tossed into his room.

NO WOMAN CAN HAVE "IT" UNLESS SHE FEELS RIGHT
School Head Assails Modern Education
Principal Scores "Factory System" of Turning Out Students
MONTCLAIR, N. J., Oct. 13.—Assailing what he called the "dehumanized education" prevalent in American institutions of learning. W. R. Valentine, principal of the Bordertown school, yesterday addressing an audience in Greenwood Avenue Trinity Episcopal Church, held that education in America produces mechanized workers.
These workers, he said, are "skillful but without human richness, without social feeling and without ethical standards." Continuing he said: "It does not matter so much what subjects people study and learn as what kind of people they become. It is important that our instruction should be well equipped to teach, and academic subjects. It is equally important, if not more so, that the students should live in an environment both physically beautiful and morally wholesome so that this will determine their outlook on life and improve their standards of living and character.
"At Bordentown we work upon the individual student to make the most out of him that is possible. We have an attitude with him if he cannot do withimilar things there is something that he can do, whatever it may be, in order to get a taste of real achievement.
"Mere skill of operation or knowledge of subject matter is not enough to make a man. American educational practice, it seems to me, has reduced itself too much to the factory system of turning out skilled trades. American education has become a materialism. That is a grave weakness in our civilization. Instead of our education practice checking the

Every woman is entitled to tools her oest under any and all conditions and no woman can do real justice to herself unless she feels fresh and full at normal energy and pop. Men never admire weak, ailing women, for such women detract rather than attract. A strong, healthy, vigorous woman never falls to win admiring glances from men as well as women, and popularity always follows in her. Women continue to be a slave to a weakened physical condition. Start

Mr. Valentine stated that, at the Bordentown School, as much thought was devoted to the recreations of the students as to their academic courses or their course in agriculture, band music, printing, automobile repairing, bricklaying, dressmaking and catering.
Incorrigible Lad of 18 Confesses Killing Matron
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 13 (ANP)
Alexander Williams, 18, has confessed to the murder of Mrs. Vida Robare, 33, a white matron at the Glen Mills School for Boys, whose body was found with thirty-eight wounds in a room at the cottage last Friday afternoon. Williams said that he had a grudge against the woman's husband.
Mills is the school to which incorrigibles are sent, and young Williams was sent there four years ago. He had formerly lived in the cottage of which Mrs. Robare was matron. Suspicion was at first directed to four other boys, but because of Williams' sulkiness the officials directed to he be questioned.
WHATEVER the number of a man's friends, there will be times in his life when he has one too few, but if he has only one too many, indeed if he has not one too many.

TALKING for publication has reached the point of being an art. Three women educators told a New York World reporter of their opinions of the 1930 girl student and these opinions were printed in Sunday's edition. Each, of course, had her particular institution to think about, for there might be opportunity for the public to poke fun at some of her remarks.
Dean Virginia C. Gildersleeve talked for Barnard College; Dr. Mary E. Wooley, for Mount Holyoke College, and Gladys Reutiman, for New York University. Each agreed that the 1930 woman student is "healthy, attractive, promising, courageous and self-reliant." So far, it is easy to agree with them.
Miss Reutiman, however, started something when she talked about the tremendous change in the New York University women. They, according to her, swear less, are not prudish, and emphatically despise manlike conduct. She was quite happy over the fact that many of the university women sent a petition, recently, to the authorities requesting that smoking be forbidden in certain recreation rooms.
Surely these petitioners are in the minority. Visit the Washington Square unit of New York University any school day. The things you will see many of the university women do on the street corners, in the park, and at the very doors leading into the massive buildings where students receive higher education, are not at all complimentary. Surely Miss Reutiman is only concerned with the minority when she gives out information concerning the university.
Several years back college women everywhere were reckless. Now that each year more and more women go to college, the thrill of being smart—and often risque—will lose its foothold on them. In time, they will be the types the educators believe they are now—T. E. B.
Have you tried to economize by buying poor grades of tea and coffee? If so, you have made a mistake. These articles are proper at every moment and they should be most enjoyable for poor grades of tea, free from much loss of strength and more of the article is needed then in the case of a better brand.

HOW TG LOOK Your Best BY FANNETTE
The Important Forehead
THE forehead has come into popularity. We've always had one, of course, but it is playing a more conspicuous part now than before. Most hats are of the "off the face" type and display almost the whole forehead. This means that special attention must be given the forehead. It must be free from wrinkles. Don't frown, as that is one of the quickest ways to form wrinkles. Frowns spoil the appearance of the entire face. If you have wrinkles in your forehead, massage it gently with a rotary motion beginning from the eyes and moving toward the hair. Work persistently on your eyebrows. Tweeze them daily, if necessary, as well-shaped, neat eyebrows are absolutely demanded.
Lines in the neck can be removed by massage. Rub the neck horizontally, across the lines gently and upward toward the ears. Many young people have lines on their neck. Persistent care will benefit you.

Hallowe'en—The Inconstant
Jack-O-Lantern faces on oranges, removing yellow but leaving white inner peel. Cut off about one inch of each orange. Remove pulp. Cut each orange into two combine with remaining ingredients. Fill orange shells with mixture.
HALLOWEEN comes this year on Friday, October 31. Were it not for some of the queer capers that are cut on Halloween, it would be quite easy to give this day the honor of being the most sensible of our special days. Anyway, so far as food is concerned, Halloween is in a class by itself. On all other special days the average family partakes of far too much food, and very seldom is this enormous quantity well-balanced. Everyone knows about the munchies Christmas and lunch follow the Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners. This does not mean that we will ever give up these glorious foasts, but it does intimate that there may be something wrong about these meals. The headache of Halloween is the Labor Day picnic in the open, where sandwiches, cold meats, and similar foods form such a percentage of the meal, is also quite well known by many persons. Anniversaries, birthdays, family reunions, holiday parties, promise to induce heavy meals that may not be particularly well-balanced.
Halloween, however, is different. Few of us make any pretense of preparing a special dinner for this day. As a matter of fact, we are more likely to prepare a light meal so that the children may eat it quickly and go out among them. Once out in the dusk, the children unquestionably until it is time to retire or until a party or an appluecking group at home is in order.
Beth dear:
It is true that the children eat considerable on Halloween night. Candy is secured in various places and popcorn and wafers are fruits are also obtained, so that the Halloween day's dict as a whole is very likely to be strongly alkaline. For one day at least the children secure enough fruit to balance the heavy acid-producing foods so sure to get the usual, meals
You like the soul of hospitality, so of course you are planning a guest room for the new house. I simply cannot imagine you not having a place to "fold away" an expected or unexpected visitor, and I know you are supremely happy now that you are going to have a nice guest room for you. A thousand times, yes—comfort is the first consideration when planning a place for a visitor. Can you imagine a comfortable guest room unless the bed is comfortable? That is where you will want to begin with furnishing the spare room. A mattress of good quality and silent, resilient springs will make your guests rise up and call you to the room. You will need the mattress color gray and attractive, too, in keeping with whatever color scheme you decide on for the room.
Here are a number of typical Halloween recipes that will be of interest to women with guesses. On October 31, Incidentally they may be used on other days as well as Halloween, but they are particularly applicable to this day of fun and frolic.
Jack Frost Surprise Dessert.
(Serves 6)
6 large oranges
1 cup diet bananas
1 cup sugar
1 pillow ice cream
Marshmallows
Cut slice from top of oranges. Remove pulp, leaving inside of oranges. Clean. Dice pulp. Fill cup with oranges. Fill orange shell half full of this mixture. Add a tablespoon of ice cream to each and top with two or three marshmallows. Place in a hot oven under broiler for two minutes. Serve at once.
In furnishing this room it is a good idea to bear in mind the fact that it will at one time be used by a woman, at another time by a man, and at yet another time possibly by both. If the room is large enough, you will probably be the most satisfied. You know that when you go visiting nothing looks so welcome as lots of drawer space where you can

Using liquid wax to loosen and remove accumulated dust and grime is the best way to clean a waxed flooring.

Confidences Questions and Answers BY EGXPSF ANN Constant Bickering
ARE quarrels necessary in married life? Some folks seem to think so. If things go along smoothly, they immediately think life is boring and monotonous and try to start something. A quarrel now and then may be unavoidable and sometimes necessary, but this constant bickering and nagging will end with a case in the divorce courts.
Women are guilty of this charge more than men. Most men hate scenes. Men do may things to provoke, but they are ready to fly when an argument starts.
On the other hand, some men are naggers, too. They are enough to lead a woman to distraction—and oftimes they do!
It doesn't pay to make your annoying. When you are tempted to start quarrels stop and ask yourself if it isn't very silly and stupid.
Try to make yourself agreeable and desired rather than be known as the "Battle-ax."

Crisp Vegetables
Do you have a special container in which to keep your vegetables nice and crisp in the ice box? If not, you will find a splendid substitute at little cost by wrapping the vegetables in double heavy wax paper (bread paper is good), making perfectly airtight, then tying securely and placing in the ice chamber. Before wrapping, always allow vegetables to stand in ice cold water, shake off the excess water, but do not dry.
MODESTY is to merit what shades are to the figures in a picture, it gives strength and heightening.

Paint Old Floors Fill Cracks First
If your floors are old, it is necessary to fill up any particularly wide cracks before painting, as follows:
Crack Filler.
Mix one-half pound of flour with one-half pound of alum and three quarts of water, then boil this mixture until thickened. Now soak old newspaper in it, torn in small bits. The result will be a substance as thick as putty, which may be forced into the door cracks with a case knife, and allowed to harden like papier mache.
Your floors, of course, should be clean before being painted. If spotted with old paint stains, clean these off with caustic potash. If you wish to remove old paint, apply two or three coats of potash dissolved in water (not getting this mixture on the floor). Scrape the softened old paint off, then rinse in clear, warm water and chrysotoughly before applying at least two coats of paint.
A coat of white shellac, thinned with wood alcohol to about the con- dence, milk or water dries quickly) will aid you overheat the surface stiffness of a painted floor.
New Use for Rubber.
Old jar rubbers have another use. They can be made to hold paper or cloth covers in place on the different jars which many of us use for jelly. Strings are generally used, but these rubbers can be sprung over the covers much more quickly than you can tie the strings.
LAWS, like houses, lean on one another.

HELP!
THEOPHILUS LEWIS, journalist, columnist and critic, and yours truly have engaged in previous tills and I have always found him to be an opponent worthy of my steel (pen). But when George Schuyler, one of the big berthes of journalism, an author, critic and columnist, allies himself with Brew Lewis against me, it is crowding me a bit too close. Both are top-notchers, and one is so efficient that we are so efficient. Perhaps they mean to give me a verbal spanking that will put me in my place.
Messrs. Schuyler and Lewis have the right to their opinions, but the fact that "ten thousand times ten thousand people entitle me to a dramatic quality of "The Green Pastures" is argument enough in its favor to encourage all those who have not seen it to see one of the most remarkable plays of the century. We knowles that he has not seen "The Green Pastures"—that automatically eliminates him as a critic of this particular play. That he takes sides with Mr. Lewis seems to indicate that he is prejudiced or that he three times writes with the past, have been very definite, positive, independent and oftimes radical.
Mr. Schuyler writes: "Mr. Lewis is the most capable dramatic critic Negroes have." (How many other capable critics have? In what much confidence in the criticism of Theophilus Lewis as I have in that of the leading white critics?" So have I, but I haven't much confidence in either. I have much more confidence in him. I have much confidence in him. If I like a play, what matters to me if all the critics in the universe condemn it?
Mr. Schuyler says that Mr. Lewis qualifies as a critic because he has attended the foremost plays, studied the technique of play, and read the plays of all time. Mr. Lewis may be able to discourse intelligently and critically about the dramatic ability and output of Thespis, Euripides, Martell, Gabriel d'Annunzio, Victor Holsom, Dumas, Sardou, Pushkin, Tolstoi, Shishman, Ben Opson, Cervantes, de de de, and still err in his judgments of a modern play.
Mr. Schuyler asks "Why is it that Negroes are so bitterly opposed to criticism while white people of any prominence and intelligence seem to take it as a matter of course? There is no doubt about Miss Ethel Barrymore's prominence or intelligence. Read this from the Sunday Herald Tribune under the name of Percy Hammond: "Miss Barrymore, the most distinguished of American actresses, believes the drama situation is by this edition of newspaper reviewers, is a bane to the art of the theatre. In her opinion the men and women who write of the stage are evil nuisances, retarding its welfare by their pestiferous attention to it and its people, obeying its unscrupulous and with no credentials entitleting them to compliment or damn the artists of the drama." In answer to a critic as to her opinion of her profession, she said: "Mine is the highest and yours is the lowest. On other occasions she has been asked by women with teeth clenched and her fingers crossed has denounced the craft as a loathesome interference with the pleasures of play-acting." Mr. Hammond says that the great Richard Fleming at the mouth as years before The Times wrote to give hydrophobia to any critic who bites him.
Mr. Schuyler says that a whole lot of Negroes, including yours truly, seem to think that plays like "The Green Pastures." "Hallelujah." "In Abraham's Bosom," "The Emperor Jones," "All God's Chillun's Got Wings," "Roseanne," "Goat Alley," "Lulu Belle," "Porgy" and "Black Boy" do the Negro group a whole lot of good. They do nothing of the sort, says Mr. Schuyler; they merely reinforce the prevalent Caucasian stereotype of the Negro.
"The Green Pastures" is so different in content and precept from the other named shows as to discourage comparison. Mr. Robert Littell, in the Sunday World, says of his Occidental pastures, "I have been in New York only one day; we have a blue plate lunch that we recommend to all customers who have time for only one dish. It is called 'The Green Pastures.' I have tried it myself more than once, and if you go back to Terre Haute without ordering it I will never have a more perious talk from a waiter, but in this case it is justified," says Mr. Littell. "Thetregores who come to New York and omit 'The Green Pastures' ought to be shot. I have heard 'The Green Pastures' called a quaint, naive Negro's conception of the Bible. It is also heard it called a play describing the education of God. That comes a good deal nearer."
Irvin C. Miller, after seeing "The Green Pastures," said: "Knowing most of the players, I didn't expect to be greatly impressed, but like a child, I was amazed at the spirit of its simplicity and the beauty and enchantment. I forgot the identity of the players. I lost sight of their race. It ceased to be a show and became a series of soul thrilling episodes in the salvation of man. I went to the understand Mr. Schuyler. Although the Negro dramas that have gone before have not measured up to our ideals or aspirations they have furnished the chemicals for the finished product of the future. The butterfly evolves into a bird, the birds hide in our are to believe evolution. We were not so much to look upon at the beginning. In those trying days of uncreative meals and ubiquitous room
LEWIS LOOKS IN ON THE "BROWN BUDDIES" And Gives Readers His Usual Unhampered Opinion
rents, even as meal tickets they were not to be scoffed at. In those shows, with their many objectionable features, our artists, by their high class work, made it clear that they were above the low characters they were portraying; that the Negro has emotional depths yet unsounded. Those plays wrote the first chapter in the history of the Negro drama in America. Each succeeding page will mark the forward step in the history of the Negro in drama will abound to the glory and credit of the race.
Johnny Hudgins in Revue At Alhambra This Week
Johnny Hudkins, the famous "wah-wah man," whom Broadway loved and Paris proclaimed "tres droll" is at the Alhambra Theatre this week. His comedy Hudkins, known for his customary love and takes part in the fun generally, in addition to his celebrated pantomime act. Jackie Mabley keeps the laughter goin' and plays a miniature violin until the audience roars, "shorty" George Brown, cleverest of midgets, has a lot of tricks, and Conway and Parks, night club favorites, sing and dance. George W. Cooper, his dear partner of Jill Rehman, has been greeted, as he has some clever scenes with Dick Campbell, Ted Blackson and Arie Cain.
All these things happen in "Wah-Wah Days," the musical comedy part of the program. Elmer Blinn is a young newcomer and a very talented and promising girl she is. The green leads the dancing dolls, and the band is up on the stage in an upbeat-minute setting showing a miniature golf course.
"When Women Bite" is a more or less crazy kind of drama showing the drawn of the next century, with everybody living up in the clouds. We did that men and women. The girls pursue the boys, and poor Willie is in great darner of losing his good name. And the star of the drama is Manda Rendolph.
Reginald Denny, in "What a Man" presents a roaring talkie that is heartily funny. Recently Swan and Lag closed a year's engagement at Coen's Inn and they are now the stars of the Cotton Club.
The management of the Alhambra Theatre announces this week, beginning Monday, in a musical comedy which they have named "Under the Jail."
The "Al Jolson of the West" is what they call Harold Reed, a singer who spent most of his life in the theatrue of Harlem but has always been prevented by other engagements. Harold Reed will be at the Alhambra next week.
Others in the cast will be Baby Lee, Ella Thomas and the Cornfield Four, a quartet to New York with regional restraints.
"The Desert Sheik" is the drama of little Mira, who auses of her tame beauty and looms for romance. When the sheiks fall in love, they are stared at by Sally O'Neil and Molly O'Day are the stars of the tale of night life and the perils for girls, entitled "Sisters."
Midgets Best Part of the Lafayette Theatre Show
The Royal Midgets presenting their miniature revue entitled "Midget Pollies" run away with the show at the Lafayette Theater in New Orleans, diminutive people sing, dance, play musical instruments and tell jokes is a treat. The midgets perform for approximately fifty minutes, during every minute of which the audience is kept laughing or applauding. This week's show includes New Orleans Willem Jackson, Sooks Wilson, Lillian Young, Naomi Price, twelve dancing girls, Freddie Tungstall's jazz band and a prima donna who is new to Harlem in the person of Avis Andrews. The current being presented together with "Midget Pollies" is "Song of the Flame," a spectacular, moving, fascinating version of the great stage drama and spectacle which played for two solid years on Broadway. "Song of the Flame" is a gripping story of adrenaline and romance during the troublesome days when years were being overbrows in Russia.
The revue at the LaFayette next week is entitled "Sub-Sea Revels" deriving its name from the fact that a good part of the cast is from the bottom of the ocean. The cast includes the Four Flash Devils, Celeste Long, Long and Short, a comedy dancing team, Pocket and Mason, and Tim McGraw. The feature picture will be "Swing High," a romantic drama of circus life, Stephen Fouchit heads the cast. There is a battle between two female triarchs are being played, which is so to be one of the most gripping dramatic episodes that has ever been included in a picture!
"ON YOUR BACK" AT THE
HARLEM OPERA HOUSE
A style show revealing the most fashionable New York gown display is a highlight of "On Your Back," Fox novelloce drama of life and intrigue in an exclusive midstle's establishment, which will open at the Harper Queen House, 135th street, west of Eighth avenue, Wednesday to Friday. Costumes in gowns, wraps and dainty pratties for intimate wear are displayed
(By Theophilus Lewis).
What is the first one-man musical show these aging eyes have ever seen is now on view at the Liberty Theatre. True enough, the title is Brown Buddies, which indicates a cast of at least two; but titles, as everybody knows, are frequently misleading and even more frequently meaningless. Certainly this title has not the slightest connection with the show unless Brown Buddies means Bojangles and himself, or possibly Bojangles' right foot and Bojangles' left foot. For Bojangles, otherwise named as ifr. Robbins, dances with the other. In other words if you just must have pictures with your stories, Bojangles is the whole works.
I say this while remembering that the talented Adelheid Hall and the equally talented Shelton Brooks appear on the stage at various times, for neither Miss Hall nor Mr. Brooks anything to do that in the least bit. But the true of the forty or fifty other super-numerary performers who contribute odd bits of singing and dancing. The big shot could send them all home except one piano player and Botangles and Brown Buddies would not less entertaining. Indeed it might even be easier. Bountles would have to dance more.
I would like to be able to say that Brown Buddies is a good show. It makes a feeble attempt to tell a story and it almost gets away from blackface character comedy. Unfortunately, it does not go far enough which has been turned over the business Mason and Fordie Lewis had been thrown in the ash can and a coherent story, like that of Hit the Deck or Good News, inserted in its place. Brown Buddies would be ten times as interesting and entertaining. What's more, I believe it would be a better show than present state it will not last last weeks after Blackbirds comes to town—if Mr. Leslie has any kind of show at all this year.
In the meantime, Bofangles, like the superb showman he is, is in there hoofing. And what hoofing! His nimble shoes shuffle through amazingly intricate rhythms with effortless makes them appear easy as walking, as moving and moments when one is all but charmed into believing that his estatic taps transcend mere rhythm and include harmony and melody as well, rising to the plane of sheer music. Always, too, there is a delightful novelty in his shoes, and concludes that he is so good that he cannot possibly improve. Still when one sees him again he has improved; what appeared to be unsurpassable grace is surpassed: he is always extending the boundaries of his shoes and finish. He is the only man I have seen in the show and you can dance in a line of girls and make you keep your eyes on his feet instead of the girls' feet.
It is even possible that Bojangles will be able to make a go of a show that would be lucky to last a week without him. It is extremely doubtful, however, for there are too many weaknesses of the story has already been noted. In addition to that the comedy is highly overrated by the term mediocre, and the music is as flat as an Eighth avenue car wheel. would have been a break for the show, and the jingles, had stopped that bullet in Pittsburgh, provided the cop had fired with better aim.
P. S.-John isn't quite that bad. I just couldn't muff a chance to wiscrack over.
In all the splendor and luxury of an authentic Fifth avenue shop. From high heads the superb cast as the dressmaker who came to home. Other well-known names in the supporting cast include H. B. Warner, Raymond Hackett, Marion Shilling, Wheeler Oakman, Ilka Chase and Charlotte Heary.

USED AT ALHAMBRA
Dramatic Editor,
Amsterdam News,
2293 Seventh Avenue,
New York City.
Dear Sir:
I strongly disapprove of some
parts of the language used in the
drama ending last Sunday night
at the Alhambra Theatre.
Taking God's name in vain was
absolutely unnecessary to give
fuelless expression to the play.
It should be remembered that a
large part of the theatre-going
public is also church people—people
who either belong to church,
attend church, or believe in some
church, and who, therefore, could
not readily condone such audacious,
nonchalant taking of God's
name in vain on the stage.
Think of its influence upon children!
Noted writers of best plays today,
including underworld dramas,
are evading such terms.
I trust that others, who disapprove of this tendency to the base and vulgar on the stage, will join me with their bestests through the columns of your good paper.
Yours in the interest of a better and higher type stage.

Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of this week "Our Blushing Brides," with Joan Crawford, will be the attraction at the Renaissance Theatre. Here is an all-talking picture which is filled with drama for the men and fashions and romance for the women. See and hear the truth about modern love and marriage in a new and startling way. You will enjoy the revelation.
For the week-end feature, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, October 18, 19, 20 and 21, the Two Black Moran and Mack's War. For the week-end feature, Renaissance, Starling with the two famous blackface comedians are Neil Hamilton and Joan Peers. You will remember the worth of laughs which Moran and Mack produced in "Why Bring That Up?" and hear them in their intent success, which is better than any of their previous ef-
There is just enough plot in "Anybody's War" to make it interesting and thrilling and to provide a delightful contrast to the muffled antics and sayings of the Two Zinc Crowns. The story begins in a Tennessee town and affirms France with the American Expedition Forces. See and hear this excellent picture. It is one of the season's big successes.

DELIGHTFUL CLARA BOW TO BE AT THE VICTORIA
You never can tell 'till you try. An old adage but again proved true in the case of Charlie Ruggles and Natalie Kingston, that rule of romantic comedians who appear with Clara Bow in "Her Wedding Night," which is due to open at Loews' Victoria Theatre this coming Saturday, to remain for three days.
Ruggles and Miss Kingston found they could do things for laughter they had never done before while making "Her Wedding Night"—and without trying. They discovered to their own surprise that they possessed acrobatic talent. "Her Wedding Night" is Clara D was latest talking hit. It is farce—pure and simple. Director Tuttle explaining that laugh follows laugh in succession so quickly that there isn't any room for a dramatic sequence. At any rate, there is plenty of hilarious fun in the picture, most of it which is supplied by Skete Gallagher and Charlie Ruggles. Ralph Forbes plays the romantic interest opposite Miss Bow.
"COMMON CLAY" TO BE SHOWN AT THE DOUGLAS
Can an unmarried mother hope for justice from our best people? Can a girl who has made a mistake ever redeem herself?
These are two absorbing questions that are fearlessly answered in "Common Clay." Victor Fleming's remarkable dramatist production, featuring Constance Bennett and Lew Ayres at the Douglas Theatre, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Oct. 18, 19, 20.
Closely following the stage play, the screen version is even more gripping and dramatic than the aquatic original. Miss Bennett enacts the role that made Jane Cowl famous.
As an added attraction for the children, a whirlwind action drama starring Hoe Gibson and entitled "The Concentration Kid" will be shown.
Ronald Colman, as "Raffles, the Amateur Crackman," plays the title role in the picture, which will be shown at the Douglas Theatre for four days beginning Tuesday, Oct. 21.
"BROWN BUDDIES" TO BE ENTERTAINED AT SAVOY
Bill Robinson and his "Brown Buddies" will be entertained by the management of the Savoy Balloons next Saturday night, and from advance information on the show, the occasion there is every reason to believe that it will be a big night in every sense of the word at the popular amusement resort.
Cab Calloway stopped traffic on Loews avenue all day last Sunday until the early hours of Monday morning with his world-beating Missourians. Of course Fess Williams is still on the job, which is saying a great deal, considering the popularity which the theater enjoys. Strenuous efforts are being made to make the present season the biggest at the Savoy, and soon Manager Buchanan will release the news which will prove to lovers of the dance why the Savoy continues to the fore as one of Harem's big amusement features.
MME. QUEEN, DRAMATIC READER TO APPEAR
Mme. Essie Love Queen, dramatic reader, will be presented at St Mark's M. E. Church on Monday evening, Oct. 20, by the Pastor's Social Helpers, of which Mrs. Sadie Saunders is president.
This artist, who has been heard throughout the country and over the radio, will feature several of Dunbar's poems on her program.

SKETCH: BOOK
BY THEOPHILUS LEWIS
THE PASSING of Spyester Russel moves Salem Tutt Whitney to intone a fearful elogy in which the encomiums lavished on the lamented Spyester cause one to wonder to what heights Mr. Whitney would rise if he had to write the obituary of a man like Fred Douglass. Booker Washington or Paul Laurence Dunbar.
Douglas. "Sylvester was one of life's most valiant soldiers," Mr. Whitney ululates. "He had the courage of a lion and the heart of a martyr. He could neither be bribed nor bullied. Buffetted by adverse circumstances and an unkind fate, he never bowed his head, but kept his face to the foe, battling courageously to the end. May God take away soul."
restless. Dumbledore God has prepared ample rest for this weary, but勇, shade. The Almighty would be less than a gentleman if he did not. It is practically certain that by now God has ordained a special fish fry in honor of Stylvester's arrival, presenting him with a ten-cen cigar and perhaps a bottle of wine out of the other key and wanted to take on the ark. For God, as Marty the monk informed the world, does things in a big way, the best heaven affords is none too good for a magnificent soul like Stylvester's.
Minority Report
THE PARAGRAPH immediately above, of course, is my cute little way of saying that Mr. Russel could not have been such a whale of a theatrical critic. For all good critics of the theatre, especially if they are condemned to comment on the Negro stage, go to hell when they die. It is not possible for any intelligent man to witness twenty-five shows of the kind a Negro reviewer must comment on without biasphemism. He hopes of salvation. I never met him personally. Frequently I heard him extolling the great sagacity and fairness, but each time the speaker was a man whose ideas were somewhat less sophisticated than the more advanced pupils of the kindergarten. Such samples of his writing as came to my attention were certainly no more arresting than the output of Chapple Gardner or Floyd Snelson. For instance, when "Green Pastures," the play of the ages, first astounded Christendom. Mr. Russel wrote practically all the first list of twenty well known performers, the five most educated leaders of the profession, who were not in the cast, and from then on stopped listening to gabble about Mr. Russel being a Walky or Archer in blackface.
. . .
I FEAR Mr. Whitney's judgment of the ability of men, like his judgment of merit on the stage, is a bit warped. He says that if Mr. Russell had jolled performers along he could own on ene, but if he had jolled Whitney, he was just writers over got on easy street by jolying colored actors? I bet he can count them on his thumbs. The fact is that few colored actors earn enough to live decently, let alone make it profitable for writers to tedy to them. I know that most theatrical writers share the opinion, which is probably the reason why they, do not eat regular.
. . .
NO DOUBT Mr. Whitney will charge me with bad taste for dwelling on the imperfections of a dead man. That does not worry me. I do not stand in awe of death. The mere act of dying does not raise a mediocre man to greatness. If it is just to praise a wise man's wisdom after his misfortune, he should bind him or to puncture the false ideas disseminated by his admirers. Besides the very thought of a man becoming an important figure by writing about the Negro stage is absurd. No man ever became a great literary personage by writing the alphabet. To become an important writer a man must have something important to write about. Through the Negro theater he has ever been acquainted in the Negro theatre together with the combined talents of all its performers, is not worth a single drama like "Journey's End."
Gentlemen of the Press
A FEW issues back I wrote some quite obvious commonplaces about the profession of journalism, whereupon a number of gentlemen with cobwebs in their brains jumped on me like a duck on a June bug. It is with no small amount of malicious pleasure that I I am from an article by G. K. Chesterton in the New York Times of Oct. 5. "The journalist conceives it as his only duty to be a good journalist, even if a moment's reflection would tell him that it means being a bad citizen; that it may in some cases mean being a sneak or a snob, a bully or a spy, a aad or next door to a criminal. The journalist is also a man of honor and a Catholic. is also of the opinion that reporters are not necessarily semiamn nor editors archangels, the fellows who wanted to tar and feather me will reent and let me off with a suspended sentence.
Abbott's Monthly
No Headliners
A CASUAL reader who happened to be somewhat informed on who's in current Negro literature would doubtless be surprised by not finding a single article contributed by any of our leading writers. One looks in vain for the names of Jessie Fauset, Eric Kidman and Rudolph Fisher among the list of contributors. Nor can find Walter White, Zora Hurson, Langston Hughes, Nella Larson, and James Weldon Johnson. It does seem that the first issue of a magazine that will determine the tone of our literature for some time to come should have at least one of these prominent writers among its contributors.
The ablest writers represented in the issue are Arthur Schomberg and J. A. Rogers. I mean they are the ablest well known writers whose work appears in the periodical. In my judgment, the idea that is actually most interesting is an article by George A. Simpson who contributes the first half of a debate with a churchman on the subject of the war with the United States Youth? This is a live subject and Mr. Simpson writes clearly and forcefully. Rogers tells how Alexander Dumas, papa, almost got the command in the French army that was the beginning of Simpson's rise to power, and Schomberg relates the story of one Simpson Sancho, a Negro who gained fame as a scholar in Europe.
Too Bad Pictures
THE ART work of the magazine is for the most part amateurish. With artists like Nugent, Stoncr and Douglas available, one can think of no plausible reason for the editors accepting botches like the one described in Illustration which illustrates Rogers' article, or the another that illusionist A Morteged Soul explains. I can suggest is the somewhat improbable one that Editor Abbott himself drew the pictures.
The Annual Farce
EVERY YEAR. It seems, a colored player on a Northern football team causes complications when a game is scheduled with some college in the South. This year it is one Pastor Quallo, and the school is Upsala. Quallo, a dark skinned Cuban, went with his team to Baltimore for a game with John Hopkins. When the team arrived in the city, Quallo was refused service in a restaurant, denied ac-

commodations at the Knights of Columbus Club and not permitted to take part in the game between his school and the cracker college. All this, of course, was accompanied by the use hypo-
While Quillo was being barred from the game, one of his teammates, a real American Negro, although light enough to pass, remained with the squad in the Knights of Columbus club and them in the downtown restaurant. He also played in the game.
Young Quallo must have some interesting thoughts on the subject of American manhood, black and white. Here was a group of young men with whom he had been associated on terms of morality and less intimacy deserting him when he was confronted with hostility and hostility. What must he think of these men. What does he think of the course of their compulsion. What should he play if his perceived team mate were barred from the game? If Quallo's thoughts were known, I wager he has greatest respect for the crackers than he has for either the white players of his own team, his coach or his colored team mate. The crackers had the courage of their compulsion. They simply refused to play against a lump that included any known colored men. The northern school was covardy and hypocritical. It is not surprising that eleven men who did not have one backbone between them lost by a score of 36 to 6.

of these recitalists, who have been under his instructions for the past three years. The other credit, granting the natural ability of the pupils, Mr. Margotson said, was due Father J. Edmard, who discovered these talents, encouraged and aided toward their development by offering at any time the use of the church and the organ for practice.
Certainly the program rendered was sufficient evidence of co-operation. These pupils, who are still young, have been excellently directed in the technic of study, in the understanding, appreciation and performance of the classics, and with the continuation of such training they will develop into musicians of whom we shall be very proud.
Miss Woodroffe's voice has a rich and sustaining quality and her breathing is good. There were times when her rehearses were rather abrupt, partly due to nervousness and inexperience on the concert stage. This handicap is still with many virtuosus who have often faced the public.
"Angels Ever Bright and Fair" by Handel, "Alleluia" by Mozart, "Hear Ye Israel" by Mendelssohn, "Romance" by Debussy, "Desyre Tues Yelp Bleus" by Massenet, "The Sands of Dee" by Clay and "The Little Daznel" by Novello were some of the numbers she sang very well.
Mr. Caesar possesses fluency and an interpretive understanding strengthened by police and self-confidence. The themes were clearly heard above the accompaniments and his climaxes were carefully approached. Some of his outstanding renditions were the Bach Prelude and Fugue in *€ Major*. Choral Prelude, Toccata, Callaerts' Intermezzo, Gulmant's Grand Chorus and Lemare's March Herolique.
Joint Recital
Lorenza Jordan Cole, pianist, assisted by Charlotte W. Murray, contralto, will be heard in a recital at the Baha'i Center Assembly Hall in the Steenhay Building, 119 West fifty-seventh street, Saturday evening, November 8, at 9 o'clock. This recital, sponsored by a committee, of which Mrs. M. V. Boutte is chairman, is given as one of the means to make possible Miss Cole a pianist in London with Tobias Matthey, who is considered the greatest living teacher of the pianist. Miss Cole was scheduled to leave this morning in Newport, R. L. were to appear in recital Friday evening. Other concerts will be given in Philadelphia either October 26 or 27 and in New Bedford, Mass. November 10.
In 1928, while studying at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music under Marguerite Melville Lissiewska, Miss Cole won a Juilliard Musical Foundation scholarship. Another was won in 1928, when she entered the Institute of Musical Art of the Juilliard School of Music, where she studied under Carl Roeder, being graduated last June. Miss Mary White Owington, who is well known to us not only as an author, but also as a friend and benefactor, is responsible for aiding Miss Cole in coming to New York to study

RadioNews and Programs BY RICHARD L BALTIMORE
Lutheran Inaugurate Hour
The Lutheran Church of the Missouri Synod launched a nation-wide week-long last Thursday over the Columbia Broadcasting System and twelve affiliated stations, making a const-to-const hookup of thirty-four stations.
The Church of O Hill, who is hosting a publicity committee for the Negro race in the metropolitan district, said: "This was indeed a great undertaking. The cost of this hookup will exceed $20,000 a year. That means the church will spend more than $4,000. I sincerely hope that this great outlay . . . . . . . He made it plain that this is a missionary undertaking and that the church expects nothing in return.
The Lutheran Church has been conducting mission work among Negroes for more than half a century. Besides the numerous day schools, three institutes and a training center for the training of Negro boys and girls in the South; namely, a theological seminary in Greenboro, N. C., a teachers' training school in Selma, Ala., a preparatory school in New Orleans, La.
The Rev. Mr. Hill, who is pastor of Rethany Lutheran Church in Yonkers, said he would spend approximately $200,000 each for religious and educational work among the people of our race in this country. About 25,000 are benefited by him.
Dinah and Dora
Dinah and Dora, the girl friends of Goldie and Dusty, step before the microphone Friday evenings now at 9:45 from WOR. For several months these girls have caused their miseries, their wars, their affairs of heart and their boy friends, Luclus White and Spud Johnson, during a morning broadcast. Their following, which fan letters indicate has grown to large proportions, has prompted the girls to form the Dusty Corporation, to inaugurate the evening series. The morning programs will continue. The two programs will, of course, be different. The two actresses, favorites of Harlem vaudeville houses and clubs, play the roles of Dusty and Dinah will be impersonated by Ann Freeman and Dora by Artie Belle McGinty.
Bad Tubes Cause Clicks
If a set is subject to a series of sharp clicks when shaken or disturbed, the service man will suspect the tubes. If the clocks are not in the correct position of the elements will become loosened or bent in such a way as to make intermittent contact, thus producing numerous short circuits within the tube itself, which would blow up in the loud speaker as clicks.
Clarence Williams Trio
The Clarence Williams Trio, consisting of Eva Taylor, Clarence Todd and Clarence Williams, which has not been heard on the radio, will be its first public appearance Friday evening at Carnegie Hall before an audience whose ovation lasted fully three minutes.
Eva Taylor, the crowning contender, is featured with the Blue Streaks over the National Broadcasting Chain every Monday and Wednesday, and until this last week every Friday 11 a.m. m.
The audience will be heard over WHN and regularly from the leading stations through the city.

Dear Girl Scouts:
From the way things look, most of the Girl Scout Troops have begun their meetings and are now in full swing.
Girl Scout Week begins on October 26 with Girl Scout Sunday, to be observed with a joint service. It is hoped that each troop will plan some extra activity for that week.
Has your troop a full registration? Do twenty-four or thirty-two girls attend every meeting? Not, get busy. The drive for full troops is on! Our motto is "Every troop a full troop."
Troops with very good attendance at troop are No. 91, Urban League; No. 126, St. Mark's M. E. Church; No. 151, Salm M. E. Church; No. 155, St. Philip's; No. 123, Mother Zion, and No. 144 at Public School No. 90.
Because of a tree planting ceremony for Girl Scouts in Central Park on November 1, the hike will take place on Saturday, Oct. 25 at 9 a.m., starting from the Urban League, 204 West 136th street.
Scout News
The Eighth district rally was held on Thursday night at the Mother Zion Community House with more than 300 boys, their parents and some friends present. The paraders, need in their uniformity, large crowds as they attended the church, led by the St. John's Brass Band.
Contests were held in songs and cheers, first aid, tunnel relay racing, swat tag, knot tying and "skin the snake." Troop 775, of which J. J. Arrendell is Scoutmaster, won first place; Troop 768, of which M. E. Anderson is Scoutmaster, second; Troop 731, managed by P. B. Marshall, third. The judges were Lemuel L. Foster, James A. Perry and Samuel Westerfield.
The award, a plaque given by the district, was presented by M. Perry, former deputy Scout commissioner. Troop 731 permanently, a troop must win it three consecutive times.

A FRENCH dentist has even reported a localized loss of hair from dental disease. Two such cases of localized baldness recovered their hair-growing ability following the cure of pulpits in one case and the extraction of a dead root in the other. These cases show how the blood supply, even to the scalp, may be affected by dental disease, and only further emphasize that no root fragment should be left in the jaw after an unsuccessful attempt at extraction. For this root, deprived of its source of nutrition, cannot but act as a foreign body in the jaw, and ultimately cause neuralgia and other serious trouble. Whenever there is a suspicion that a portion of the root may have been broken off, and left in the jaw, following an extraction, an X-ray examination should always be made. This will clear up the matter conclusively, and a radical operation can be done-preferably under an anaesthetic, such as nitrous-oxide, or novocaine.

Care of the FEET
By HORACE D. WORRELL
Chiropodist
Hallux Valgus
WITH the shoe styles today being to please the eye rather than to fit the shape and contour of the foot, there is no reason why people should not develop overlapping and misdirected toes. The latter condition, when occurring in the great toe and turning outward from the head of its metatarsal bone, is called Hallux Valgus.
The examination of a baby's foot, or the foot of one who has gone without shoes a great deal, say like the natives of the tropics, will show that the toes grow directly in front of the other part of the foot, because it is natural for them to do so. But, if the foot is required to stand and walk in a visse-like box with pointed toes, that are not long enough to permit the toes to extend and spread out, it is natural that it will assume the shape of the shoe, or the pointed toe stocking that covers it.
Stand on a piece of paper in your bare feet and with a pencil trace the outline of your feet. Then put on your stocking, which is pointed, and see if the outline drawn of your feet now (with stockings on) won't show that the little toe is turned in and the great toe turned outward because of the pointed stocking.
Now if you go further and draw the outline of your pointed toe dress shoes, you can readily see that, if these shoes are worn, some change must sooner or later take place in the foot. The constant wearing of this type of footwear makes accommodative changes take place in the feet, in order that they may be able to get into the shoes.

The Liver
(Continued from last week.)
HE brief tabulation of the functions of the liver, in last week's article, undoubtedly should have impressed our readers with the great importance of this organ, the largest in body. While the diseases of the liver are many and of serious sort, there are just two or three which are sufficiently common to deserve mention here.
Jaunicee is the name applied to a group of symptoms arising from the circulation of bile pigment in the blood. This is manifested by a yellow or greenish yellow tint to the skin, the eyes and lining of the mouth. The cause of this is the retention of bile within the liver and its absorption into the blood, due to a catarrh of the bile ducts. This represents the most common form of liver disturbance and is associated with attacks of indigestion, errors in diet, exposure and as a complication in pneumonia, malaria and typhoid fever.

In a case of jaundice of this type, there may be neither pain nor distress, and the patient's friends may first notice the strange discoloration. In other cases there are dyspeptic symptoms, an uneasy sensation in the region of the stomach and pains in the back and limbs. Sometimes the disease occurs in epidemic form, in which case the onset is more severe with headache, chills, vomiting and fever. When the jaundice is very marked, the pulse becomes slow, there is profuse tching of the skin and the throat. When the stool are changed. This form of liver disturbance is, as a rule, not serious, and with rest and proper treatment will subside in two or three weeks.
Another relatively common disease of the liver, generally said to occur in those who are "fair, fat and forty", is gallstones. It is seen, however, in the young and female. These stones are formed from bile pigments, bacteria and broken down blood cells. These stones may be present for a great many years without causing symptoms. When they begin to pass out into the different ducts and cause a blocking of the flow of bile and pain the real trouble begins.
Don't blame your liver unnecessarily. When it is really out of order, or good dose of castor oil or salts will cause it to clear up the so-called "liver out of order" case.

Tax Rate Increase Hurts Landlords in Harlem, According to Uptown Realtors
Student of Assessments Says Many Owners Pay Over Tenth of Rents—Tenants Seem Benefiting Despite New Valuations
With today as the last day for landowners to file objections to assessed values placed upon their property for 1931 by the city, an increase in the tax rate for property is noted. The rate for 1930 was $2.68 per $100, while the rate for 1931 is $2.70, or two cents more.

Tax Rate Increase Hurts
Harlem, According to U
Student of Assessments So
Pay Over Tenth of Rents
Benefiting Despite Ne
With today as the last day for lar-
to assessed values placed upon their
city, an increase in the tax rate for pr
for 1930 was $2.68 per $100, while the
two cents more.
To the casual observer this increase may seem slight, but to the holder of property valued at several hundred thousands of dollars the increase is more than noticeable. According to Louis J. Hart, white attorney, of 9-15 Park place, who has made a special study of taxes in Harlem, the high rents which tenants pay is traced directly to the steadily increasing assessment values placed upon property by the city.
1
In his statement to The Amsterdam News, Mr. Hart says: "The taxes for this year in Harlem have frequently amounted to over 10 per cent of the amount of the rents. In other words, a tenant who pays $50 per month rent for an apartment is paying to the city government $60 per year. Is it any wonder that the landlords say they can't afford to reduce rents when the city each year makes them pay more and more for taxes?" Mr. Hart further states that many buildings in Harlem are assessed at more than double what the city said they were worth thirteen years ago, in spite of the fact that nothing more than ordinary improvements have been made by landlords.
The statements of Mr. Hart were largely corroborated by C. D. King, real estate owner, of 146 West 138th street. Property owned by Mr. King at 178 West 138th street, he said, was in 1922 assessed by the city as being worth $23,000. This same property, he declared, is now assessed at $30,000. Only the most simple and ordinary improvements have been made on the property during that time, he stated.
"The landlord," said Mr. King, "is always affected. Assessments are arbitrarily set by the Board of Assessors without consulting the landlord as to the amount of rent his property brings in each year."
---
A more optimistic attitude was taken by Carey D. Blue of the Home-seeker's Service Bureau, really firm, 2297 Seventh avenue. "The Negro is not greatly affected by the increased assessment, said Mr. Bilbo. "He less anger of the apartment houses in Harlem are owned by them. Of course, the landlord is affected but he dare not raise his rents. There are too many empty apartments in Harlem to which the tenant can move for that." According to Mr. Blue, the Negro is swiftly moving to the outskirts of Harlem, to Amsterdam, Convent avenues, and the Fifties. As a result this migration he has lowered. In some places, he said, seven-room apartments are renting for $72 and $75 per month.
Farmer Discovers Oil on His Farm

North Carolinian Opens Filling Station and Sells Fluid to Motorists
```markdown
```
VANCEVILLE, N. C., Oct. 13 (ANP) - Some thirty-five years ago, Booker T. Washington, the founder of Tuskegee Institute, exhorted Negroes to "cast down your buckets where you are." Whether or not Lonnie Burwell, farmer in Caswell County, heard this address is not known, but that is just what he did. For years he cast down his bucket in a well on his farm and drew up cool, sparkling water, but some of his bucket eased the east down his bucket he drew up oil which has the potentiality of gasoline. After trying it out in his filver Burwell opened up a filling station and, according to reports, sold the fluid which his well gave up.
The report of this phenomenon has attracted much attention and Burwell's farm and his filling station have been cynomous of all eyes in this section. Hundreds of people visit it and watch the experiment. At first it was hard to see the fuel in the garage and leaked into it, but nearby garage, but this theory was expelled when the gasoline tank of the garage was removed.
Tests of the fluid bear out the statement that it possesses the power of gasoline and Burwell's sales have increased.

The eviction of tenants by landlords for non-payment of rent will be the topic of discussion on Sunday evening at the Hubert Harrison Memorial Church, 149 West 136th street, at 8:30 o'clock.

Ethelred Brown, pastor of the church and Socialist candidate for the Assembly from the Twenty-first Assembly district, who will address the meeting on "The Eviction of Poor Tenants; Is the Violent Defiance of Law a Sure or Proper Remedy?"
Two weeks ago five Communists, one of them a white woman, were given jail sentences because they staged a demonstration in front of 168 West 128th street when a tenant was evicted by the white landlord.

Ras Tafari Secures Gambling Devices
News dispatches from Addis Ababa, Abyssinia, last week state that American gambling devices are being installed here in preparation for the coronation on November 2 of Halle Sellassie (Tafari) as Emperor of Abyssinia. The machines were purchased in the United States by a special envoy of the King. The envoy was sent out with instructions to buy everything westerners used to amuse themselves. The dispatches also state that question of housing the hundreds of foreign guests who have accepted invitations to witness the coronation is occupying the King. There are only three hotels. One solution has been the restitution in quick order of a building which had been abandoned because of native fear. This structure was created for a bank not far from the King's castle.
The bank was British and the King was forced to build another further away from the castle when townpeople insisted that the British were going to use the building as a cover for tunneling operations under the castle. It is expected that the King himself will use this renovated structure, which has stood for years and turn over the gibbi to members of the royal family. Absolutism in this African country sometimes takes strange aspects. The King rules the country in the fashion of the French Louis, who bowed before God only. But his Majesty, by custom, goes down into the quarries when a bridge is to be built or a public building is going up and helps his flock carry stones for the structure. It is by practicing simple things that the King maintains his power. The King's special enjoy of the United States to the coronation, and the members of his party, including Brig.-Gen. W. W. Harts, are now en route to Abyssinia.

Delany Turned to Success in Law by Discrimination in Episcopal Church
Suffragan Bishop's Son Achieves Record as U. S. Attorney
The organ in the chapel of St. Augustine's School in Raleigh, N. C. is playing the procesional hymn. The Rt. Rev. Henry Beard Delany, suffragan bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church for many years, walks slowly down a street in a thirteen-year-old boy who assists him as lay reader, one of the youngest ever chosen to perform this duty. Hubert Thomas Delany in 1914 has already decided that he is to be a minister in the church of which his father is an eminent leader. A year later Hubert read that of his church had come to Raleigh with a choir. He attends a service at the Christ Church and is ushered into the gallery. The usher asks him why he does not attend the Negro Episcopal Church. Hubert talks with one of his white teachers in the Episcopal school. He is not satisfied with the segregation that he did not expect and in the Christian religion. The ministry is about to lose a promising youth.
Turns to Law.
Herbert begins to ponder over his future. Where can he be independent? Where can he fight .oost effectively against the spirit that has made him, n black Christian, urable to worship where Christianity is proclaimed but not practiced? Perhaps he can bring! justice through the courts of justice. His decision is made. Where the ministry has lost, the law will gain.
On May 11, 1901, in the city of Raleigh, he was born into a distinguished family. His mother, Mrs. Nannie Logan Delany, spent forty years of her life as a school teacher, in addition to her deep and active interest in her husband's ministry and bishopric. The Delany homestead or the campus of what is now St. Augustine's College in Raleigh is a familiar spot to travelers in that section, and a fireside to any students of the school would always be welcomed. School High at College.
Hanky Rakes College
Huber University applied the high-school course at St. Augustine's in 1919 and soon afterwards headed for New York. Matriculating at City College that fall, he soon attained a place of esteem among his fellow students and teachers. His classmates made him president of the Education Club and likewise of the Douglass Society. Dean Paul Klapper made him a tutor the Education Club. His education made him a bachelor of arts at the 1923 commencement. Delany needed money for the study of law. He was also anxious to try out in actuality some of the educational theories with which he had come in contact during his academic career. He was soon appointed a teacher in P. S. 89, Manhattan. At the same time he registered in the School of Law at New York University.
His fields of activity were far from being mutually exclusive, he thought. In fact, they ought always to complement each other. Proper training of children must precede effective administration of the school. He extended with his study of law, both extending from 1823 to 1826.

Weds Scott's Daughter.
In the meantime, a new element entered his life. He had met Carlisa Scott of Washington, the daughter of Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, and forerunner to the Secretary of War in Wilson's cabinet. She was a brilliant girl, who had won a Phi Beta Kappa key in a New England college, and a talented poet. Delay was in love. They were married in March, 1926.
In June of the same year Delany earned the degree of juries doctor

HUBERT T. DELANY.
from New York University Law School. He took the examination of the State Law Board and passed it without difficulty.
Loses Mate to Death.
Soon after plunging into the practice of law his wife became ill. The first major dark cloud in his life was about to hover roundabout him. She died the following year. Just what this meant to Delany can be judged from the tenderness with which he speaks of her now. His usual wit departs from an otherwise spirited conversation. He becomes suddenly savage and insulting, and he again, for I must not spoil the memory of a perfect union," he says with deep feeling.
His married life brought him into closer contact with his father-in-law, Dr. Scott. In fact, he and Scott had been close friends for some time. The new family relationship only gave added sanction to an old association. When death visited the Scott-Delany family in 1927, father and son-in-law remained as closely bound to each other as before. "I always think of Dr. Scott as my father," says Delany. Since 1926 Delany has been associated with S. Watson in the practice of law. Though not partners, and being of different political beliefs, they maintain offices in the same suite at 240 Broadway.
Named Tuttle Aid.
In October, 1927, District Attorney Charles H. Tuttle recommended to the Attorney-General at Washington United States attorney, Tany Credi, his appointment to the recommendations of former City Court Justice Gustave Hartman; Prof. John Edmund Hewitt, one of his instructors at New York University and new
rate among whites is 14.1 per 100,000, as compared with the much lower rate for Negroes of 4.1. To be contrasted with his percentage, however, is that of the homicide rate which compliers of the survey declare to be eight times as great among Negroes as that of the whites. The rural suicide rate was also found to be much lower on the whole than that of the city.

a candidate for justice of the Supreme Court of New York; Dean Paul Klapper of City College, all white, and he characteristically adds, "others of my personal friends." When he first entered Tuttle: office Delany was assigned to the then most important mail fraud case of the office—involving over a million dollars in various insurance companies. Socrates Moschahlades, one of the largest Greek merchants in New York, had tried, with the aid of his associates, to collect insurance after setting fire to one of their warehouse, which contained a million dollars in worthless merchandise. The mails were used in carrying out this scheme, hence it came under the jurisdiction of the Federal Court. Delany's prosecution resulted in the conviction of Moschahlades, who, together with six of his co-defendants, received eight years in the Atlanta penitentiary.
Tuttle took over personal charge of the sinking of the steamer Vestris and called on Delany to assist him in this work. Delany is generally recognized as an authority in questions relating to maritime law, and Tuttle has often sought his advice in questions relating to violations of law on the high seas. Several felonious assault cases and one murder case that happened on the ocean have been prosecuted by Delany. He is survived by Burcun. February 2, 1930, Delany has been chief of the counterfeiting bureau in the office of the district attorney. He is the first Negro to be in the criminal division of any United States attorney's office. During the first six months, under his leadership, over fifty convictions for making, possessing and passing counterfeit money were made.

Counterfeiters Cringe as Youngster Sends Fifty to Jail
New York City were broken up as a result of this prosecution. During the whole of the year 1928 only nine such convictions were secured. Perhaps the outstanding case prosecuted by Delany was that of Zacel Savino and his confederate, each of whom received a sentence of five years in the Atlanta penitentiary.
Fought for Clean Bar.
In addition to this almost unbelievable record of three years' work in the district attorney's office, Delany has been active in securing the disarmment of numerous lawyers who were guilty of practices considered unethical in the profession, especially in the matter of bankruptcy, where exorbitant fees are afflicted, unargued, and petitioned by bankruptcy made without the fulfillment of the legal requirements, and fees split in deals between lawyers on both sides of the proceedings.
The failure of the Clark Brothers' Bank was another matter assigned to Delany. This firm, which had been in business for more than a century, was composed of using the mails to defraud, and James Rae Clark, white, its president, was sent to Atlanta.
Makes Work a Hobby.
When asked about his hobbies, Delany replied that his work furnished his most satisfactory outlet. "I have not had a vacation this year," he said, but, lest he might be thought assuming a heroic role, he added quickly, "but I intend to take one soon." Those who have seen him plead before a jury know how much enjoyment he evidently gets out of this part of his work. And it is far less enjoyable than if lost only three cases in three years of steady pleading as an assistant district attorney.
Last year Delany was named by his party to run for Congress in the Twenty-first district. He resigned his Federal office at the time and, though Tuttle was reluctant to take a chance on losing his services, he was anxious to see Delany available as a candidate. He was highly for the office. Delany was not elected, although he made an outstanding fight. Soon after the election he was reappointed to his old position, in which he is still engaged. For five years Delany has been a member of the haberdashery firm of Bell and Delany, Inc., 200 West 135th street. He is a member of the twenty-fourth district of the Republican Club and of the Theta Sigma Fraternity.
Supports Former Chief.
Delany was interviewed Monday at the State headquarters of Mr. Tuttle. Asked about the gubernatorial campaign, he explained that his present case load is too heavy for him to give it up just now. It was only because Monday was a holiday that he could get away at all. It is known that he seldom leaves his office before 6 or 9 o'clock in the evening, and he has been known to have his head buried in heavy legal books as late as 1 a.m. He said in no uncertain terms that his endorsement of his chief is wholehearted. Three years of intimate official and personal association have convinced him that Tuttle is 'a man who looks upon Negroes as children but as citizens of the State who has the same interests, desires and aspirations as any other citizens, and who are entitled to their fair share of representation in the affairs of government.
Only 29 years old, Delany displays little or no personal ambition. He is happy in his present work and admits his achievements only with great reluctance. He such a man as long his present dreams to be seen how long his present pinnacles will remain unsubmerged by others that are higher.

Bates of Orange, N. J.; past grand secretary; James T. Carter of Richmond, past grand treasurer; Judge Edward E. Henry of Philadelphia, exalted ruler of O. V. Cato Lodge of Philadelphia; George Wallace Edwards of Asbury Park; J. Bernard Johnson, exalted ruler of Sunlight Lodge, host for the day; Attorney Leroy Jordan of Elizabeth, and many others.
Mr. Wibecan, in his address, discouraged a split of the order. He said, however, that he stood for a change in the present administration. He recalled that many of those now interested in securing a change were at one time warm admirers of every member of the present administration.
Judge Henry said he was there as a consoilist and to welcome every member of the order to Philadelphia in 1831 for the annual Grand Lodge session.
That there would be no split in the powerful order of the I. B. P. O. E. of W. seemed the general consensus of opinion. It was decided that a committee of one hundred members selected from various parts of the country should be appointed by the chair, this committee to be known as the committee for the preservation of Elkdom.
After this committee shall have been appointed it will select its own chairman and from it will come a committee on ways and means, whose duty it will be to raise funds. These funds will be used to defray the expense of telling the public of all the alleged short-comings of the Wilson administration and the needs for a change.
Several resolutions were presented and adopted, all calling for a "house cleaning." Personalities were avoided, the people at whom the resolutions were aimed were invariably referred to as "the administration." More direct reference, however, was made to J. Finley Wilson. grand exalted ruler; Perry W. Howard, grand legal advisor; and Judge William C. Hueston, educational commissioner, who were directly accused

Brooklyn Justice Rules That to Call A White Man a Negro Is Not Libelous
Boxer Sought $100,000 Damages Because Daily Paper Article Spoke of Him as Colored Judge Refuses to Brand Race Ignoble
Called upon to render an opinion which might have legally branded the Negro as an inferior being, Justice Dunne of the Supreme Court in Brooklyn ruled Friday that to call a white man a Negro is no more libelous than to call a Negro a white man.
The decision was given in a libel action for $100,000 damages brought by Emilio Salomon, a boxer, against the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. The fighter, who is known as King Cajon, alleged that the paper published a libious article telling of his sparring with Jack Sharkey.
The part considered damaged by said: "Salomon formerly worked with Schimming and Sharkey believes he can act some idea of the German's style by boxing with the Negro conditioner."
Justice Dunne said: "To say that the words published by the defendant are libelous per se is to say, as a matter of law, that a whole people, in nowise responsible for an accident of birth, are to be placed in a category signifying in the public mind some degree of moral obloquy or other degrading imputation. The public policy, at least in so far as such may be declared by law, does not sanction such construction, for the Federal Constitution and the organic and legislative enactments of this State, followed by judicial expressions, have so indicated."
The jurist continued by citing a decision of the Court of Appeals in which the status of the Negro was made clear. In concluding he said: "if, in error, a man is denominated a Negro, and thereby, per se, acquire a cause for action, with equal co-agency, so far as the law is concerned, if a man, in error, is denominated a Caucasian or any other member of the human family, he likewise should, per se, be entitled to recover in the mistake."
Justice Dunne gave the boxer permission to plead special damages in his contention that his reputation as a boxer had been ruined. He ordered that the pleading be filed within ten days.
Forgot First Marriage, Hubby Alleges Wife Said
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—Charging that his wife had deceived him into believing that her former marriage had been terminated by the death of her first husband in the World War, James H. Dickerson, 827 Twenty-sixth street northwest, filed a petition in the District Supreme Court recently asking amendment of his marriage to Bessie Dickerson, 2120 Ward place northwest.
Dickerson says in his petition that he went through a marriage ceremony with the defendants in the District of Columbia on October 19, 1900. Several federal states, he accidentally discovered a marriage certificate among her effects, showing that she had married Leslie J. Turner, 1215 New York avenue northwest, on September 30, 1911.
Upon inquiry she told him that Turner had been killed in the World War, he says. Turner had been dead so long, she told him, she had forgotten about their marriage, he states. He made no further inquiry, he says, but he has since discovered that she is still Turner's lawful wife.

Given 20-Year Sentence on Criminal Assault Charge
BIRMINGHAM. Oct. 13 (ANP)
—Robert Curry again escaped what seemed to be certain death when a jury found him guilty of attempting to assault a 16-year-old white girl and rendered a verdict which set the punishment at from two to twenty years.
The alleged attack occurred May 12. In Orveton, and when Curry was taken to the home of the victim, her father, W. W. Crissan, attempted to shoot him. Only the quick action of the officers in knocking the revolver from the irate white man's hand and overpowering him saved Curry's life. The Crissan girl appeared in court and identified Curry. A short defense was made following a lengthy statement by the prosecutor and the case was turned over to the jury, which rendered the verdict after deliberating for about two hours. Curry will be kept here in jail until he can be removed to the state prison at Kilby.

Grand Jury Fails to Indict Marion Killers
Commends Sheriff for Preventing Race Riot by Giving In to Lynchers
MARION, Ind., Oct. 13 (ANP)—Into that classic limbo of forgotten things goes the vigorous investigation of the lynching of two boys—Tom Sippy and Abe Smith—who were dragged out of the county jail here early in August and hung to trees on the courthouse yard. Two boys were accused of having held a white man and his girl escort on a long byroad, known as "Lover's Lane." Shortly after they were arrested, rumors became current that a mob was forming with the avowed intention of lynching the boys. Word was sent to Sheriff Campbell of Grant County, informing him of the danger, but nothing was done to prevent the formation of the mob. In the evening, 10,000 strong, it asked the jail chief Sheriff refused to issue orders to halt the angry whites and stood by while they brake jail doors and locks and seized the victims.
Investigation was demanded by several agencies, including the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which made a private investigation through its acting secretary, Walter W. Smith, a formerly retired sheriff, for neglect, but the fear was expressed that nothing would be done to him about the lynching because of the political power of the sheriff in Grant County. The county Grand Jury in its report Thursday sustained the fears. It refused to return indictments against any of the men against whom charges had been made, and added a paragraph describing the work of the sheriff, who according to the Grand Jury, had prevented a race riot by permitting the lynching.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 13.—Marking the first time the church as such has joined hands with a Negro bank to contribute a Biblical text to a commentary on Negro business, the ministers of Philadelphia have notified Major R. R. Wright, president of the Citizens and Southern Bank and Trust Company, that they will preach 100 sermons devoted to boosting their local bank this Sunday. After the sermon has been preached, each minister will send a copy to Major Wright, who will put it in pamphlet form as a valuable commentary on Negro business.
Real Estate Pointers
By William T. Williams
The principles controlling real property in this country may be traced to a landholding method known as the Feudal system, which prevailed in England from the Tenth to the Sixteenth century. Under this system the King owned all land and granted the use of portions of it to his various subjects, who in turn paid with their services.
This method of landholding was known as tenancy at will, it being a type of tenancy which may be terminated by the lessor—meaning the landlord—at any time. In such an event, however, the lessee—meaning the tenant—is given a reasonable time to remove his property.
Under this system, subjects were granted what was known as a life estate, which is an interest held during the life term of a certain person.

Three Taken in Dope Raid Must Face Courts' Action
An alleged narcotic seller and two men suspected of being addicts were in the toils of the law today following a raid upon an apartment at 32 West 131st street by Detectives Juckley and Moffett of the Narcotic squad and Percy Clark, a Federal agent. Andrew Williams, 32, owner of the apartment, who is said to have sold the detectives a quantity of cocaine for $5, was held for arraignment in the Federal Court. The two suspected of being addicts, Rankin, 44 Bedford Street, Newark, who had a hypodermic needle in his possessi n, and William Hines, 44, 60 Winthrop avenue, New Rochelle, who was found in possession of cocaine, were held without bail for trial in Special Sessions when arraigned before Magistrate Silbermann Saturday in Heights Court.
TRUCK LOAD OF WORKERS
FIRED ON BY LA. WHITES
PEARL RIVER, La., Oct. 13. — A road worker was shot and slightly wounded and a white man was arrested near here in a threatened riot between white and colored workers over jobs on the Honey Island road construction project. Town Marshal Clarence Crawford reported. The trouble started Monday night, Crawford said, when eleven workers from Ponchatoula, La., arrived for work on the road. They were warned not to take the jobs. The marshal said a truck load of men was fired upon from the swamps and the driver was shot in the arm.
Knuckles Toter Held
Found in possession of brass knuckles, Julius Sant, 32, 73 East 101st street, was held in $1,000 bail for trial in Special Sessions when arraigned Thursday before Magistrate Stern in Harlem Court on a charge of violating the Sullivan law.

but not passing by inheritance.
Land was also granted by what was and is now known as estate by inheritance, which gave rise to considerable confusion, inasmuch as the lords, or direct tenants, found great difficulty in enforcing feudal duties owed them. To correct this evil, statutes were passed which provided that when land was granted away by a tenant, the one receiving it would owe his duties to the lord and not to the grantor himself. At the accession of Charles II, this method of landholding was changed to a tenure for fixed money payments, thus the origin of title to land was initially. In the latter states practically all the land is held alodially, which means that it may be held by an individual subject only to certain control by the State.

Woman Dies in Hospital After Shooting by Home Invader
Police continued their search yesterday for the slayer of Ruth Nelson, 30, 415 Clarmont parkway, who hot and fatally wounded her last Wednesday evening in her apartment and then made his escape. Miss Nelson died Thursday morning in Morrissala Hospital from three gunshot wounds in the abdomen.
According to the police, the young woman was seated in the living room of the basement apartment of Mr. and Mrs. Estrauder Bailey, with whom she shared the place, and was conversing with them, when the man, a stranger to the Baileys, burst into the apartment.
At sight of the man, police were told, Miss Nelson ran into her bedroom, where she was pursued by the intruder. Once inside, her friends hurried up and the man say, "You've ruined my life!" Then came a succession of five shots and the stranger ran from the room to the street.
He was closely followed by Miss Nelson, who cried, "Get that man," and then collapsed. A passerby gave chase but the slayer escaped. The young woman was rushed to McRilansia Hospital, where she died early Thursday morning. Police investigate the case and two biographers mark their mark, lodging in the walls of the bedroom. Detectives of the Homicide Squad and of the Bathgate avenue police station are working on the case.
Urban League Prepares
To Aid Harlem Jobless
Harlem is facing the most distressing winter season for jobless men and woman, according to a report made Thursday evening by James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the New York Urban League, at the meeting of the league's executive board.
Demands made upon the organization clearly indicate the seriousness of the unemployment situation in the city, and the numerous plans for developing a practical training course for workers in various occupations as means of helping clear up the situation.
Samuel A. Allen, industrial secretary of the branch, said the outlook has improved for mechanics, barbers, taxicab drivers and members of the Colored Merchants' Association, who are organizing for economic security. Openings have been made for Negro mechanics on the construction of the State Hospital at Central Islip, the largest city in the West 135th street police station. Nineteen carpenters and mechanics were given work at Brentwood and Central Islip, he said.
GIRL, 15, SEEKS DEATH IN LEAP OFF ELEVATED

T. elevated station platform at Van Sicklen avenue, Brooklyn, to the street, thirty feet below. At the Trinity Hospital, where the girl lived, it was found that she had sustained a fractured spine. Her parents are employed at a country club of Westchester County. She gave no reason to police for attempting her life.
$5,000 BAIL SET WHEN
GIRL TELLS OF HOLDUP
Harold Brewster. 32. 2526 Seventh avenue, was held in 55,000 bail for a further hearing when arraigned Saturday on a charge of robbery before Magistrate Silbermann in Heights Court.
Brewster was arrested on complaint of Minnie Bullard. 17. 202 West 146th street who charged that he followed her into the hallway of her home early Saturday morning and robbed her of $1.50. Miss Bullard told the police Brewster grabbed her by the throat and threatened to kill her. He then took her handbag and stole her money, she said. After the theft he forced her into the cellar where he attempted to attack her, the young woman declared. Brewster denied the charge.
RIGHMOND, Oct. 13 (ANP)
Ways and means of getting around the ruling of the United States Supreme Courts, which declared that the denial of Negroes to vote in Democratic primaries was a violation of the Federal Constitution, caused the two ruling Democratic bodies, the State Central Committee and the State Executive Committee, a whole lot of wakeful nights and thought.
Much of the time spent by the two bodies in their recent meeting was used in discussing the rulings of Judge Groner and the Supreme Court. While election officials have been instructed to permit Negroes to vote in primaries of the party on the same basis as whites, there is an unintended consequence in the party ranks and the judicial racking and perhaps wreck'g their brains in the effort to devise a method of defeating the ruling.
Many whites, who offered only a passive resistance, have found comfort in the feeling that Negroes will stick by the better element of white men, thereby enabling Virginia to have more intelligent representations in the various legislative bodies of the Federal, State and city governments.
BLAST VICTIM'S BODY

Chocolate Will Meet Benny Nabors at the Olympia Thursday Night
Promoter Jess McMahon has arranged the best card of the new indoor fistic season for his Olympia Club in Harlem Thursday night, with Kid Chocolate opposing Benny Nabors, former National Guard featherweight champion, in the ten-round main event. Chocolate, who recently returned to this country after a vacation in his homeland, is raring to go. His manager, Luis Gutierrez, signed him for the Nabors bout as the opening shot in a campaign which he hopes will terminate in another Chocolate-Berg bout within the next three months.
It is a peculiar circumstance that finds the Keed, one of the greatest fighters, pound for pound, of the past decade, without a world championship to name. And he is a better thinnerighter than the titleholder. Bat Battalion is conceded, and that he holds a decision over Al Singer, the lightweight king, is a matter of history. He is beyond a doubt one of the greatest drawing cards in the game today, yet he is unable to prefix that all important word-Champion—to his name. The Keed himself would like to know how it feels and it is probable that before many moons he will get his wish.
The Chocolate-Nabors bout is well supported. Black Nabors contender for the world lightweight title clashes with Breda Lethart of the Bronx, in the ten-ton semi-final number. Bill is gunning for a return bout with Midget Wolgast, but is willing to take on any other flyweight in the world who'll have any part of him.
A special six-round event shows Walter Palm, of Finland, and Dario Finna, of Italy, while in another six Pablo Blanco, of Cuba, trades with Bobby Herman, of Brownsville. Pepe Canto, of Mexico, faces Vincent Renta, of the Bronx, in the four-round opener.
Football
HOWDY, folks! Well, I'm back home, and in the pixkin racket again after a brief but tempestuous sojourn in Uncle Samuel's western provinces. As far as the natural eyes can discern, training tables with their jackets disappeared from the colony communities. The reign of the simon pures has begun. Gridirons resound with the tread of the fact of flaming youth, who combine culture with courage. Disdaining the temptation of the jure, the new generation of gridirons with a burning real to do or die for the glory of Alma Mater. Page Lincoln University. On my return East, I stopped over at Zenis to interview Coach Graves and his squad at Willberforce University. Although school was a stink, the skies, including seventeen veterans, had ported for the preliminary practices. The sentiment in Ohio is crystallized in the slogan: "This is Wiberforce year." When the writer mentioned Ruskeege and a Mr. Stevenson who used O. Man River rover rolling along in the Big River, the new form reply was: "You'll see what you shall see."
Speaking of Howard, I suppose you have noted the score of the Howard-Johnson G. Smith fracas at Charlotte, N. C., last Saturday. Each team scored a goose egg. Lest you focus on Howard eleven went through the season last, with the unique distinction of not scoring a point in competition. However, since Lincoln did not score against Howard, the season ended even Steven. For the benefit of the pessimistic alumni who predict that history is about to repeat itself, the writer begs to cast a dissenting ballot. Believing the sixty-two wards of Coach Verde will go to cross somebody's goal several times before this season becomes history. If they cannot cross it with the eleven, by gosh, they'll do it en masse. Football prospects at Howard appear brighter this year than they have since the palmy days of the Watson regime. Verdel is building fortunes in the ground, deceptive and surcharged with money to the writer expects to see it develop after the West Virginia game and reach its full fruition on Turkey Day at the Griffith stadium.
Hampton has gotten off to a running start. That 40 to 0 score against St. Paul presages bad news for the Gauley State. The 40 to 0 score and Virginia State have not uncorked anything sensational in their early starts. We'll know more about Morgan after we observe them in action against Lincoln on October 25. Their 18 to 6 victory over Coach Jefferson's A. and T. eleven indicates possibilities.
Lincoln starts the season with a veteran lineup and good substitute material. If Bill Taylor can develop one good quarterback from this squad, Lincoln has a sweet chance to against Hampton at the Yankee State Member. However, Gideon Smith is letting the grass grow under his feet and will leave no stone unturned to revenge the defeat of last year.
Alonger it looks like a great year for the plexus industry with Union, Hampton and Howard fighting it out for the C. I. A. A. football championship.

West Virginia State Ready For Season Opener
INSTITUTE, W. Va., Oct. 9—With the initial game of the season close at hand the West Virginia State College "Yellow Jackets" are being carried through tough workouts by Head Coach Hamblin and his assistants.
As the season develops, competition becomes more keen by the return of several old men such as Carl and Wilfried Klokewen of Charlestown, "a" and Wilfried Klokewen of Beckley, W. With so splendid an aggregation of aspirants receiving such excellent training, it is safe to say that this season the mountaineers will have a line that will hold and backfield that will go.
Below is the "Yellow Jackets" revised schedule:
Oct. 18, Howard University at Washington; Oct. 25, Kentucky State at Knappford, Ky.; Nov. 1, Fisk University at coming; Nov. 8, Bluefield at field; Nov. 15, Virginia State at Petersburg, Va.; Nov. 22, Clark University at Institute; Nov. 27, Wilberforce University at Wilberforce, Ohio
The Athenians, Baltimore favorites, began basketball practice last week with over twenty candidates reporting to Coach Butler. Among the candidates trying for this year's team are "Lanky" Jones, colorful center, and former Morgan College star; "Slim" Henderson, elated team formerly of Virginia Seminary's championship team; Dennis Simpson, former of Howard University; "Powell" Shoffey, Morgan star; "Dick" Whitington former captain and star of Lincoln University, and a number of promising local lads. Indications point to the Greeks having one of the strongest teams in the country this season. The Athenians are planning a southern and western trip this season, which will them almost over the entire country. Teams desiring games should communicate with Howard G. Wright. 2367 McCullough street, Belidmore, Md.

SPEAK ON, FREDDIE
I wish to speak in reference to what I call a very serious mistake, that of announcing a new world's record in the 300 yard race at Pershing Field on Saturday, September 27, 1930, and then immediately announcing that the track would have to be measured before the record would be allowed. I have followed the games for many years and had to go to the Old Warren Athletic Club of Jersey City, of which I was a member. I still hold my registered card No. 962 (June 16, 1904). I was later a member of the Salem-Crescent Athletic Club of New York, and am now a member of the Jersey Harriers of Bayonne, N. J.
I have seen this same thing happen many times. Why not have all tracks measured correctly at first usus, avoid the marassus? You never tell me the record will be broken as it's being done all the time. It does seem too bad when a boy who has the distinguished honor of breaking the world's record finds out that the track was short.

Burke took four teams his selection and nosed out Munford's, 6-4. In another practice till, W. Johnson's five went down before the better teamwork of A. Brown and hismates, 13-9. H. Payne failed to get his five together and so forfeited. With two teammates (11 pounds) disclosed to team captain by C. Parrls and C. Brooker. The latter led his team to 10-15 decision.
The 130-pound class brought out four players. J. Gates led his team successfully against 'Vanderversch', 17-6, while J. Carey averted a shutout by a last-minute goal against eight points scored by V. Bantle's quintet. Three teams were on hand in the unlimited class. J. Bourne and his men were among the missing. W. Chavis could not find four men to lead and so looked on from the sidelines. O. Easter showed his own skill in leading his team to a 17-10 victory. Hanks' five. He and his men could not hold this stride, however, for they later bowed to J. Johnson's outfit, 29-22.
There were quite as many spectators on hand as there were players, were not a bit reluctant in moving the ball in and out of our players. E. Burke of the midgut division came in for mention through his heady floor game. In the same

MAROONS AND MOUNTS IN TIE
Colored Players Came From Behind to Hold Op- ponents Even
Under ideal whether conditions fully 5,000 soccer fans witnessed the Metropolitan League fixture between the Mt. Morris F. C., and the Maroons F. C. at Central Park West last Sunday, which ended in a draw. 2 to 2, after a fast, and stern battle. The captain of the Mt. Morris, having won the toss of the coin, defended the eastern goal with the wind in his favor and made good use of the situation by scoring the first two goals despite the wonderful defensive play exhibited by the Maroons. The first half ended with Mt. Morris leading 2 to 0.
The second half opened with the Maroons attacking their opponents' zone and scored their first goal after ten minutes of play. By a magnificent piece of combination work the forwards worked themselves into the enemy's territory and Alvin Pearl made the score 2 to 1.
The Maroons continued good work with a series of heavy attacks, weakened by defenses of the Maroons and Melnoth on either side, having worked himself to the inside position, received a pass from Jack Smith and scored.
At this stage the game became very exciting and the linesmen had great difficulty in keeping excited spectators off the touch lines. Both teams were fighting with grim determination for a lead, but at 5:30 the play whistle blew, leaving them deadlocked.
The Maroons will play the Good Shepherds at Van Cortlandt Park next Sunday at 3 p. m.

Stars From Church City to Meet Renaissance in First Game Oct.26
As predicted in these columns last week, it will be a Brooklyn aggregation of ball tossers that will make the season's first bid in an attempt to try to get in the first defeat of the Renaissance basketball five, world's colored champions, at the Renaissance Casino. The time has been set for Sunday night. October 26, which means that basketball will get its official start in this part of country among colored players when the champs line up against the Brooklyn Post. And the past, Manager Bob Douglas has absolutely refused to name the line-up that will take the court against the white players, which means that speculation will

again be rife and all the rumors will continue until the night of the 26th when the team makes its first appearance. Of course, Captain Hilton Siocum will again be rife and it is the most safe bet to state that "Fat" Jenkins, Satch, Mayers, Ricks and Yancey will be very much in evidence, but none knows what additions and other plans the popular Douglas conceals under his genial exterior, and followers of the game will find the full ground to find out the full team to wear the Renaults colors this season.
So far as the Brooklyn aggregation coming here is concerned there is no speculation in the matter as a representative of The Amsterdam team, and we cover the such stalwarts of the game as Al Kellert, Bucky Williams, Bob Greebe, Jimmy Purcell, Niel Redmond and Eddie Gleeve will be in line for the Pros which, to those of you knowing your basketball, discloses that the Douglas men have selected a great big leg to play, and the interest of this battle it should also be told that the Brooklynites, advised since mid-summer of the consignment awaiting them, have been putting in their time getting in shape for this contest, and they will be at very late in the season the signal that will be in the good old court game.
As in the past, the Eastern Basketball League among the youngsters will also go into official action on the above occasion. This is something sponsored by those behind the Renaissance Five and which is a splendid move as it gives the youngsters a chance to strive for the honors of the game. Edgar Mercer has put in quite a lot of time in the league to keep the league to the success which he has found at this end of the game will most likely bring him back looking out for the interests of the smaller fellows. On with the dance!

CONRAD STARS FOR MORGAN IN GAME LAST SATURDAY
BALTIMORE, Md., Oct. 11.—With Conrad scoring three times and contributing long runs, Morgan subdued A. and T. today, 18 to 6. It is doubtful that A. and T. could have stopped Big Boy Conrad had they brought their bulldog along, for it was thrilling to watch this huge fellow, weighing 190 pounds, run down the field, side-stepping, reeling and handling himself as if he weighed only 100 pounds.
Conrad's first contribution came in the second period, when he snatched a pass and travelled 25 yards into the limelight again by catching another forward pass and galloping 65 yards for another touchdown.
Only a lad with colossal guts could have taken the punishment that Berry did. Time and again this limping center, with sprained ankle and knee, broke through A. and T's line to throw the bulldog for losses. So we had to play with him, all certainly did play balls around A. and T's ends. Hicks, Wilson and Ill Bob Williams registered thrill after thrill with long end runs.
A. and T. Fights Hard in Second Half. Burton of A. and T. threw the crowd into an emotional display by running 20 yards for A. and T's first and only touchdown. Everybody thought that the Southernmen on their way to smother touchdown, for with the aid of Dillard, DeBerry and Willis and successive drives by Burt, the ball was carried to Morgan's six-yard line. At this point Morgan suffered one of her many penalties, advancing A. and T. of her one-yard line, but the call from Morgan's student body was heard: that line, ask A. and T. for they really failed to score from the one-yard line. With three minutes to play, the crowd kept silent and watched an A. and T. team that was full of fight stand

COLLEGIATES IN HARD CONTEST
Dropped Game Last Sunday to College Point at Archo Field
Before a crowd of several thousand people the All Southern Collegiate dropped a hard fought contest to the College Point F. C. by the score of 12 to 0 at Archo Field last Sunday. For the colored team Mical, at right guard; Brackett, Harris at center; Tuppance for Jackson at quarter; Dunlap, Williams and Artest played brilliantly though losing. Gorham at end put up a stellar performance for the losers, bringing the crowd to its feet with his sensational tackling.
A forward pass in the last two minutes of play in the first half netted the winners their first touchdown, but they failed to score the extra point with another forward. The second touchdown came in the final quarter, with Mahaffey, quarterback, college point out, taking the ball over for the final score. No extra point counted on an attempted kick.
Jackson and Duniap did the kicking for the colored team. Mical and M. Gibas sustained injuries, with the latter suffering a broken ankle.
The entire team gave a good account of itself, the advantage for the winners being in their substitutes. Next Sunday the Collegates play at Garfield, N. J.

THEY SAY BON BON
IS A SWEET FIGHTER
The St. Nicholas Arena officials announced last week that they have secured first call on the services of Kid Bon Bon, junior lightweight champion of the South. Bon Bon hails from the West Indies and boxed in many contests around Cuba. He was signed to meet Kid Chocolate in Tampa, Fla., last winter, but Chocolate ought Benny Hall instead. An artist brought the pair together at St. Nick's. The West Indian lad has engaged in numerous ten and fifteen round contests in the South, and in his last engagement defeated Cecil Flowers, brother of the late Tiger Flowers.
after some discussion on the parts of the officials was decided to be a touchback, which plucked up two more points for Hampton. Sprewell of St. Paul showed some of the old fight by blocking a kick which if it had been blocked would have scored points for the Sea-Siders. The Tigers showed more determination in the second half. The spirit was willing but the flesh was weak. Malmor mourn de several hard line drives for Hampton but each time was gotten by either Hester. Sprewell or Conliffe. Conliffe fought hard for the Orange and Black team and broke up the敌方 player. The player also was outstanding for the Tigers. A ball was fumbled by a Hampton player and was recovered, which gave the St. Paulites an inkling of a chance, but to no avail.

HAS LOST H
CHARLOTTE, N. C., Oct. 11.—"Howard has lost her last game," declared Coach Bynum of Johnson C. Smith. 3 to 1 favorite, after the scoreless tie here today. The Bisons in their first game of the season, with only three weeks' practice and three green backs, got away with 15 first downs ahead of where they stopped last Thanksgiving.
At no time during the entire game was Howard's goal in danger, indicating the visitors' strong defense. It was impossible for Bynum's Bulls to butt through the Bison line. End runs were broken up by superb secondary defense in which Smith, the new Bison back, showed to decided advantage. Bogle was no trouble at all to Hooks. 217 pound freshman guard, and "Crow" Hawkins repeatedly broke through the Smith line and was down on punts as fast as the Howard ends.
The new Bison attack provided the big thrills of the game. Taking the kick-off on their own twenty-yard line, the Thundering Herd, through successive downs, advanced to the endes' one-yard line, where the Bulls held. Williams, Smith's left half-back, kicked out of danger for a distance of sixty yards. Again the Bison backs snapped into action, carrying the ball to the Bulls' twenty-yard line.
The outstanding star of the game, according to Coach Verdel, was Joe Drew, all-American tackle of 1928, playing his first time in the backfield. Drew himself accounted for
HILL HAMPTON
FIGURE ON
The football squads of the leading universities contain numerous personalities that set these figures apart from the regular run of gridiron players. At least one such outstanding figure may be found on any team. In addition to his football qualifications, he may also be the best student in the college; or he may be a three- or four-letter man in sport—there are any number of things that distinguishes this man from his fellow players. Hampton Institute, of Hampton, Va., has such an unusual personality on its football team, which will play its biggest game of the season in New York on November 1, when it opposes the formidable Lincoln University eleven in the Yankee Stadium. His name is Carl M. "Deacon" Hill, and he happens to be captain of the team.
"Deacon" Hill has been the All-America guard of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association for the past two years and he is again in line for the honor this season. Capt. Hill weighs only 170 pounds, but is a demon on the gridiron. He is shifty, speedy and a deadly tackler. Now as to Hill's idiosyncracy. The "Deacon" is more than a field general to his men. He is their personal trainer, looking after the physical welfare at all times throughout the season. He supervises every detail of their conditioning for the games, and makes sure they observe all training rules. He regulates their diet, and advises each member on how much rest he should take. In addition. Capt. Hill, after a game or a strenuous practice session, will see to it that each player receives the proper "rubbing" attention, and he is especially careful that each player receive accurate treatment for bruises, joints and strained muscles.
"Deacon" Hill is always at the peak of condition himself and therefore insists that every one of his playing mates keep physically fit as long as there is a football game in the offing. If nothing else, Hampton will send into the game with Lincoln one of the best conditioned

rolled up a substantial score against the fighting Jamaica outfit. As it was, Myers overcame the many obstacles that beset his path and his good work was outstanding. When not running with the ball, Myers was usually in the plays, stopping the opposing runner and tackling with deadly accuracy. Along with Myers in the stellar role was Gina Baratta, for many years the maltstay of the Jamaica lineup. Baratta played like a veritable sensation, but his teammates lacked the punch within the scoring territory. The Bulldogs reached Jamaica's 30-yard line shortly after receiving the kick-off. End runs and line plunges by Myers gave them two first downs. However, Jamaica held them marched back to the Bulldogs' 30-yard marker, mainly as a result of 30-yard pass from Jimmy Dineen to Ray Coghlan, before being stopped.
Jamaica lost its last chance for a score in the final period when Jack McAndrews intercepted a pass on his own five-yard line and Myers punted out of danger.
five first downs. Sharing the honors with Drew was Marshall, Howard's all-American halfback, whose uncanny passing never missed the mark. Two freshmen, Percy White at quarter, and Perry Howard at right half, were other sensations. White got every punt on the run and handled the team like a veteran. Perry Howard's quick get-off enabled him to crash holes in the line before being stopped by the secondary defense, Captain Mack and Lee at end proved that they had conquered last year's faults in never missing a pass. Verdel's reserves, the lack of which lost the game to West. Virginia State last year, were given a trial and proved to be as capable as the starting lineup.

HARLEM'S LEADER IN STYLES—CREATIONS—VALUES
TUSKEEGE INSTITUTE, Alabama, Oct. 11. — A powerful eleven, Wiley University of Marshall, Texas, champions of the Southwest for the last three years and one of the strongest colored teams in the country, met Tuskegee Institute, undefeated 1929 national intercollegiate champions. in the Alumni Bowl today and the result was: Tuskegee, 26; Wiley, 0. It was the annual home-coming game for Tuskegee, and visitors from far and near were present to see the great struggle. As early as Friday morning visitors from different sections of the country arrived at Tuskegee and when the referee's whistle started the game at 2:30, more than seven thousand spectators were present. This number included hundreds of the Alumni of Tuskegee, who returned to see the Tigers of old. Prominent among the Alumni was Jesse O. Thomas, field secretary, National Urban League, and general president of the Tuskegee Alumni Association. Weather conditions were ideal but a little warm. This, however, had no effect upon the players. It was a struggle for supremacy. The strength of the two teams and the ability of the coaches. Abbott for Tuskegee and Long for Wiley, made the contest interesting from every angle.
Promptly at 2:30 o'clock Wiley kicked off to Tuskegee and Stevenson on the first play went 47 yards. A series of line plays made nine yards and Tuskegee kicked on the fourth down. Wiley opened up with end runs and made a first down on four plays. They did not pass midfield on the next two plays, but a forward pass
netted them a first down on Tuskegee's 25-yard line. With the aid of a penalty the ball advanced to Tuskegee's five-yard line, where the Tigers held them for downs. The first quarter ended scoreless. Soon after the opening of the second quarter Tuskegee recovered a fumble in midfield and went the remainder of the distance for a touchdown, Harrison went over from the seven-yard line; the rest of the half was scoreless.
The second half opened up with Tuskegee kicking off to Wiley. On the first play Hockett of Tuskegee intercepted a Wiley pass and ran 30 yards for a touchdown. A combination—Harrison to Stevenson, Stevenson to Robinson—completed two passes for 31 and 21, respectively, and Shanklin went over from the five-yard line for a touchdown, untouched. Stevenson and Johnson added the extra points. The final score ended Tuskegee 26, Wiley University 0.
The boys from Texas played a stellar game during the entire first half, but the strength of the Tigers proved their underground. Twice they were on Tuskegee's five-yard line, but were unable to go over.

Rev. Harten a Militant Worker
Taking Active Part in Trying to Help Elect Rivers and Watson
Turning from his efforts to get out a large registration to a drive for actual votes, the Rev. Thomas S Harten, pastor of Holy Trinity Church, who was very active during the past week, is now formulating a plan for an intensive campaign which will include both Brooklyn and New York.
Although a Republican for a number of years, Dr. Harten recently declared in favor of the local Democratic candidates and this change of position for an intense campaign that there is very little difference between the major parties in their attitude towards the race and, being conscious of this, he had decided to support those persons who are qualified and at the same time expected to be reasonably unprejudiced in their actions.
Regarding the judgements for the recently created Municipal Court district in Harlem, he said that he has already decided to support the candidacy of the candidate believed that by training he was qualified and felt that he would reflect credit on the race. When it came to his running mate, John W. Hawkins, he was not so very enthusiastic. In speaking of the Democrate manners for the same offices, James S. Watson and Charles E. Toney, he gave the impression that Mr. Watson is the one whom he will support. Whether his support will be thrown in favor of John Hawkins, Republican candidate, was asserted that this will be known after a further investigation.
Dr. Harten, who is committed to the candidacy of Assemblyman George W. Stewart. Democrat, who is running for re-election in the Seventeenth Assembly district, is unimpressed by the Assemblyman over, and in order to bring this about he played an active part during the week of registration. Thousands of handbills stressing the reasons and pointing out the necessity distributed throughout the district. Among his reasons for supporting Assemblyman Stewart, the pastor called attention to the bill sponsored by the assemblyman during the last rejection for the erection of a monument to the 269th Infantry. He said that although this bill was defeated. Mr. Stewart, in his one term in the legislature, was not unmindful of the fact that something should be done for the people. He said that upon three terms without the slightest consideration for some of the people who helped to elect him.

Each year, one week in October is set aside as Pharmacy Week. This is the sixth annual observance, the first having been held in the United States in 1925. Because the pharmacist serves us so often in the capacity of merchant, we are apt to forget that he is more than that; that he also is a trained practitioner of a profession as old as Medicine itself. The pharmacist is the doctor's right-hand man. He assists in the control of insects, fungi and germs. He is a valuable source of information on public health and on other scientific matters. He buys and sells potent medicines, compounds prescriptions — safeguards the nation's health.
The purpose of Pharmacy Week is to better acquaint the public with the important role which the pharmacist plays in the interest of the public health and welfare.

BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
The Employment Outlook.
According to the October bulletin on economic conditions, issued by The National City Bank of New York, leading industrialists of the country do not now look for a definite business revival before the spring of next year. Unemployment decreased among the memberships of the American Federation of Labor from 22 per cent to 21 per cent during the month of August but this gain is due to a seasonal advance in the demand for labor.
There has been a steady movement of goods from retail outlets into consumption for some time but the reserves of the manufacturers are still relatively large. Until these surplus goods move into consumption, there cannot be any large demand for labor in the manufacturing industries.
Another factor which tends to hold up a definite revival at this time is due to a great falling off in the yearly sale of automobiles and the demand for other steel products. Inasmuch as these industries employ considerable Negro labor, there is little hope for increased employment in this field until general business conditions show a substantial improvement.
A report of economic conditions among the Negro population of Southern states by Lorenzo Green of the Foundation for the Study of Negro Life and History indicates that employment conditions there are becoming more and more political. Throughout the South white workers are seeking and filling the jobs formerly held exclusively by colored people because of the general hard times brought about by the current business depression.
Necro workers are, therefore, losing ground in the skilled trades, semi-skilled occupations and personal service, occupations.
The boll weevil and drought have driven many Negro farm owners and tenants into the towns and cities, thus aggrivating the urban employment problem. In the Southwest Mexican labor has supplanted much Negro labor in cottonfields and on

As winter nears, it becomes increasingly important that those Negroes who have jobs should make every effort to keep them and that those who are without employment should strain every nerve to find work and, once employed, so increase their efficiency as to become indispensable to the employer.
Norfolk, Va.—According to a report compiled by M. Conrad Martin, cashier of the Danville, (Va.) Savings Bank and Trust Company, Virginia ranks first among the states of the nation in Negro banking. Of the total of twenty-five banks operating, seven are located in Virginia. The total capital of these seven banks is listed as $37,000, surplus and undivided profits $129,000, and deposits of $1,656,000. The total resources and liabilities of these banks are $210,000. Banks are located in Norfolk, Newport News, Richmond, Staunton, Danville, and Suffolk. Richmond has two.
Boston—Arthur W. Reed of this city has invented a new type of auto brake. He has been demonstrating in New York City during the past few weeks and has attracted the attention of the leading auto brake manufacturers and it is reported he has received several flattering offers. Instead of using compressed air, gas from the compression stoke of the motor is used. This locks the wheel instantly.
Mr. Reed has been working on this invention for the past six years and claims that it can be used to increase the horsepower of a motor.
Chicago—A group of men and women who set out to organize the Illinois Embalmers' Association, "to standardize the profession of embalming and funeral directing," elected the following officers: Sherman Saxon, president; S. L. Minor, vice-president; Miss Catherine Thompson, second vice-president; Robert S. Alsop, treasurer; Miss M. A. Middleton, recording secretary; Theodore R. Hawes, corresponding secretary.
Clark B. Waterford heads the membership committee.
Chicago—The Miniature, a quarter sized newspaper, made its how to the Chicago public September 24, and it brings the total of weeklies in the city to six.
The newcomer to local journalistic circles is edited by Cora Ball Moten, well known fiction writer. James Berry is general manager, Earl Morris, city editor; Lee Foster, managing editor, and Billu Horton, advertising manager.
Washington — The Prudential Bank, located on Florida avenue, near Seventh street, opened its fall campaign for now business on October 1, it was announced by Edward Baker, cashier, last week. The Prudential, of which Dr. John R. Hawkins is president, during the past year increased its paid-in capital by $10,000. It has resources of over $500,000, and is under government supervision. The drive, which will consist of reviving inactive accounts and soliciting new business, will last for three months.

THE DUNNE of the Supreme Court, it is not libelous in itself to do so, any more than it is to call.

King Solomon's Feelings
King Solomon's Feelings
IS IT A LIBEL to call a white man a Negro? King Solomon, a white pugilist, says it is, and he is suing The Brooklyn Daily Eagle for $100,000. He alleges that an article in The Eagle before the Sharkey-Schmeling fight told of his having been hired by Sharkey as a sparring partner, using these words: "Salomey formerly worked with Schmeling, and Sharkey believes he can get some idea of the German's style by boxing with the Negro conditioner." King Solomon's real name is Emilio Salomon.
JUSTICE DUNNE of the Supreme Court, however, decided that it is not libelous in itself to call a white man a Negro, any more than it is to call a Negro a white man. He said: "To say that the words published by the plaintiff are libelous per se is to say as a matter of law that a whole people, in nowise responsible for an accident of birth, are to be placed in a category signifying in the public mind some degree of moral obloquy or other degrading imputation. The public policy, at least in so far as it may be declared by law, does not sanction such construction. . . . If, in error, a man is denominated a Negro, and thereby per se acquires a cause of action, then with equal cogency, so far as the law is concerned, if a man, in error, is denominated a Caucasian or any other member of the human family, he should likewise, per se, be entitled to recover for the mistake."
IN OTHER WORDS, the thing works both ways. A Negro, when mistaken for a white man, would have the same right to recover damages as a white man who is mistaken for a Negro. Libel is not committed unless the plaintiff can prove that his business or reputation has been injured by the mistake. The court gave Salomon ten days to prove this in his case. Salomon will have a hard time proving it, especially as he is a pugilist of no particular note. He can hardly contend that his advancement in pugilism has been retarded by his being called a Negro, for in pugilism Negroes have become world champions in every division from the featherweight to the heavyweight. Other Negroes, such as Peter Jackson, Sam Langford, Harry Wills and Kid Chocolate, have won fame and fortune in pugilism without becoming champions. "King Solomon" is not as wise as his biblical name-sake; he has been injured in nothing but his vanity.

THIS IS THE SEVENTY-FIRST anniversary of John Brown's memorable raid on the United States arsenal at Harper's Ferry. For years before that raid John Brown had been known as a bloody fighter for the abolition of slavery, a fanatic who believed that slaveholders had no right to live, that their lives and property were forfeit. He would kill a pro-slavery man as readily as he would a dog. HE THOUGHT that the slaves would rise and strike for freedom if they could secure arms. Accordingly, he hid himself and his little band of followers near Harper's Ferry, Va., where the Government kept an arsenal, and sent secret messages to the slaves to be ready. On the night of October 16, 1859, he attacked and captured the arsenal. The expected slaves did not appear; but United States marines did, and they were commanded by Colonel Robert E. Lee. After a short siege, in which several men were killed, the arsenal was taken. Brown, badly wounded, was tried for treason and eventually hanged.
THE INCIDENT crystallized the Abolitionist sentiment as nothing else had done; it bore out John Brown's conviction that slavery was not amenable to compromise and that it must be washed out in blood. From that time on every one knew that civil war was imminent, and two years later it came. As Brown had often said, his death accomplished more than his life. He was hanged as a traitor, but two years later men were marching to battle shouting his name in a song that has never died. He was the very soul of abolition.
JOHN BROWN has been castigated by historians as a madman and a self-seeker. It is forgotten that such men as he have been the great martyrs of humanity, men who counted their lives as nothing and their cause as everything. No great evil was ever defeated or lessened by compromise; it was never ended save by blood. John Brown is one man whom the Negroes of America should never forget; he struck the

first great blow for their freedom. If he was a madman, he was God's madman.
One Unbreakable Law
MODERN MAN is so conceited about his supposed superiority over the ancients that an occasional jolt is salutary. Dr. Albert Bachem of the University of Illinois College of Medicine says that this is the dirtiest age in the history of civilization. He says that our close-fitting clothes keep us living in a tropical climate, which becomes unbearable in the summer, and that every invention has brought harmful changes in man's environment. The discovery of fire harmed us because we began cooking our food, which caused us to lose many valuable vitamins and harm our teeth with soft food. Just as clothing cuts off light and air and proper blood circulation, so the glass windows of houses and automobiles cut off the ultra-violet rays of the sun.
THE PROFESSOR might have added that the noise of the cities frays our nerves and deafens us, that gas from automobiles ruins our lungs, and that the radio forces conversations to be carried on in loud tones. We invent printing and then ruin our eyes reading small type. For every improvement in mechanics nature exacts its price. There is one law that is never violated—the law of compensation.
TILE Fifteenth amendment eliminated race and the Nineteenth amendment eliminated sex from the franchise. Indeed, women constitute a more stable factor than men in the political equation. According to the Fourteenth amendment, the male may lose his representative capacity if his state cares to disqualify him by imposing restriction on male suffrage. But the female's representative capacity is not reducible by any such limitations.
Curtailment of representation is limited to the disqualification of males only. Herein lies an interesting point in political science which will probably never be settled. As the curtailment provision of the Fourteenth amendment has become obsolete, the issue of proportional curtailment on woman's account will probably never
Several weeks ago I issued a release on the effect of the Nineteenth amendment on woman's participation in government in general. It was there shown that the results had fallen far below expectation as to woman's participation in politics.

Race Antipathy Not an Instinct
(Editorial for Friendshipfront—All-Negro Number)
"AND a little child hall lead them." This truth has been many times exemplified. Little Helga, whose fifth birthday occurs in the middle of 1930, illustrates this truth. Like all children, she raises children who are prejudiced instilled into their minds by their parents or guardians, she is without race-antipathies, is open-minded, cosmopolitan, fearless.
When I first met Helga, she was only seventeen months old, and her speech was only the lisping of a few simple words. As her father took me toward his house in Berlin, he recognized that Helga would do." For Helga was to see a black man for the first time in her life.
I felt confident of what Helga would do, for I had seen the little, uncorrupted children of many lands. I had found their reactions to other humans always normal, little people as children, but people as children, unless for example, they have been told by their elders: "The Black Man will get you if you don't be good!" If Helga's parents had told her that before she met me, then as soon as I arrived, she would have run away, thinking in her childish way: "devil has surely arrived at last." But Helga's parents had never taught her that any race or any

Female suffrage is a greater potential political asset to the Negro race than is that of the male.
There are more Negro women of voting age in the States where suffrage is unrestricted. This nu- kind of people were her natural enemies. Therefore, when she was brought forward, in her mother's arms, to met me, she was interested and full of curiosity, of course, at the color of my face. But there was no sign of fear or of dislike. Seeing the innocent inquiries in her eyes, I simply recoiled in my hands and said, "Ome the Sugar!" I take in her language. She came to me at once. Her mother could hardly put her down fast enough, so great was her curiosity.
To get close enough to investigate, was just what she wanted. As soon as I lifted her up into my arms, with her face toward nine, she immediately and frankly started her investigations: she opened her two little hands and put their palms against my two checks; then taking them away she looked searchingly at the hands to see there were any stain. There was no stain; and so, like an honest and intelligent investigator, she immediately abandoned that theory. Next she pulled forward the lobe of one of my ears and looked behind it; evidently to find out whether I was the same color all over, or whether I perhaps wore a mask. She seemed satisfied: there was no stain, there was no mask; it must be a new variety of Man. And so, at the suggestion of her parents, she immediately came me into the same, began to call me by the title of a very near relation and has so regarded me ever since.
This little child showed more courage, frankness and honesty than is shown by 89 per cent of the grown-ups of our civilized peoples, when they come face to face with a strange race or a new situation. She was curious and frankly showed her curiosity; but she whimily accepted the opportunity to investigate, and investigated with equal frankness; and when she discovered that nothing was unmaural or artificial, and that the superficial difference of color was about the only important difference, she did what few grown-ups are able to do so thoroughly, she immediately revised her concept of Man. She had hour Homo Sapiens was for her no longer a being with light skin and blonde hair, like her father, but was a creature she could also be black—and maybe of other colors.
She was also honest; she did not hesitate or make pretense and suppress her real feelings. She immediately adopted this new variety into the family without any ceremonials, with no reservations, no
medical supremacy is found throughout the northern States with a heavy negro population. The enfranchisement of Negro women is of tremendous significance to the Republican party, if it only had the sagacity to take advantage of Practices being most Negro women are Republished. There is rarely such a thing as a splitting of this vote between the two parties. Several reasons promote this conclusion. Woman is the creature of tradition. She breaks loose slowly from the ancient landmark. Her natural conservatism will hold her to the party of Lincoln and Summer long after the more restless male has champed under the fierce menace away from his hitching post.
The woman has never come into direct contact with Republic on politicians, nor has she gained, by bitter experience, first-hand knowledge of their chicaneity, duplicity and deceit. She has not felt the sting of disappointment over unfulfilled promise for official recognition. A Negro man may be a Democrat; but a Negro woman, hardly. By neglecting this important contingency of political support, the Republican party is committing a great blunder of omission. Hitherto this important vote has been apathetic and inert; moving appeal has been made it. The Negro man has little interest in the defence of government, as such. Tariff, internal revenue, international relationship and fiscal politics move him but feebly. To the women of the race they hardly appeal at all. The issues must be condescensions, and on self-right-oughtness. Her world wideen.
And so, in human courage, naturalism, simplicity, frankness, honesty, in friendliness and brotherhood, and is the best teacher for the Man.

Interracially Speaking
By R. B. ELEAZER.
The cheerful proverb that "every cloud has its silver lining" isn't always true, of course, but in most cases it is. In that of the "Black Shirts," for example, certainly a lowering cloud on the interracial horizon, lashed into fury by the winds of impassioned oratory and the forked lightnings of prejudice. It looked pretty bad for a time, and it did have dire possibilities, without doubt.
But how turn the cloud around and make a look at the lining and you will see that the substantial elements in every community were united and active in opposition to the movement. The newspapers laughed and scouted it; preachers

Belittling Ourselves
Correspondent Objects to Type of Amusement Offered by a Harlem Theatre.
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Dear Sir:
After attending a performance at one of the largest Harlem Negro theatres, I was too disgusted to summon my inart muscles to sufficient activity to leave the place when the last curtain fell. The crowd left me seated, trying to reason out in my small way just what we were fighting for. In a large public amusement hall before a vast audience, some of whom were white, Negroes used for entertainment (and actually produced fourth) crude jokes about "jim crowing." I watched the faces of the whites closely after each disgraceful utterance and saw only perplexity and wonderment as these ignorant members of our race used our humor in wrennons against discrimination to promote a greater estrangement between sexes.
Aside from this, the vulgarity and form of amusement offered in this place is the greatest misfortune Harlem could have had. Children well as adults attend this period and rank education is being absorbed by them there.
Colored entertainers who appear in white theatres receive higher salaries and are more appreciated without the general necessity of lowering the standards. So, why belliethe ourselves?
Very truly yours.

I suppose that hardly one Negro woman in ten either register'd or voted throughout the North in the last Presidential election. I hardly apprehend that the case will be much different in the present fall election. There is absolutely no issue about which Negro woman are easily aroused by a rallying point. The publicans against the particular senators hold no keen edge of revenge. The reasoning involved is too roundabout and remote.
The record of the Hoover administration means less to them than to the Negro men. It would require the most skillful spellbinders to explain the beneficence of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff from now until the end of the campaign: Even the traditional unfriendliness of the Democrats in the South can hardly scare the Negro women of New York or Boston, where Democrat and Republican are both alike them. And, so, the matter will drag along.
The Grand Old Party exect little aid from this new element in politics until or unless it strikes a new and responsive chord. Needless for me to know that this rate will be prohibition, in the Presidential campaign of 1832. Every Negro woman can easily understand the meaning of this issue, as acts her own father, husband, son brother or sweetheart. Vivid presentation of the devastating effect upon the well-being of 't' race and nation will easily arouse her patriotic response.
PROCEEDS OF SLAVE'S
SALE USED FOR BIBLES
BOSCH.
Slaves were, once sold in Massachusetts, and the money from the sales used to purchase Bibles. The will of John Bacon of Bainstable on Cape Cod, dated December 1, 1730, revealed this bit of history. The will provides:
"To my wife the whole use of the Negro, Dinah, and the colchid during her life; and after her decease if Dinah all she shall be sold by my executors, and that she is sold for the will be improved Bibles and they shall give them equally alike unto each of my said wife and my grandchildren."
denounced it from the pulpit; official refused it the use of streets and public buildings; civic and business organizations opposed it; employers of labor frankly defied it.
With all its promises the organization did not succeed in turning a single Negro out of his job here in Atlanta, so far as we have been able to learn. Now the movement appears to be in a hopeless decline, though some of its leaders are still trying to galvanize for life. They can and again succeed for time, and make another cloud; but too, we hope and believe, will have its silver lining, and will ultimately disappear before a growing sense of interracial friendship and fair play.
J. C. Thomas Raps Hoover in Speech
Former Ass't District Attorney Addresses Mu-So-Lit Audience
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—Addressing an audience at the Mu-So-Lit Club Friday night, James C. Thomas, former New York assistant United States attorney, speaking on the "Political Renaissance of the Negro," asserted that the Republican party has no thirty-five years damned up to the United Negro States. Thomas was formerly a Republican, but is now identified with the Democratic party.
The speaker stressed the dangers of the lynching evil, insisting that no democracy can endure where all the lives of its citizens are not secure. The Hoover administration, Mr. Thomas said, has uttered no word of criticism against the attitude of Russians banishing two American engineers from Russia for assaulting a Negro worker, he then asked what was being done by the administration here when its citizens are publicly lynched. The former Republican said that no appointments of Negroes have been made that would interfere with anything that Negro representatives were put on the Haitian Commission sent out to investigate the 'est Indies Republic. Thomas also flay Hoover's attempt to put Judge Parker on the Supreme Court bench. In concluding his address, the New Yorker held that there should be a division of political allegiance, the Negroes having a race's support before election, the incentive to give ear to that race's demands is impaired.
Commission has published, or a total of 40,000 copies, of which more than 30,000 have been distributed, chiefly to school teachers and pupils throughout the country. A sample copy of the pamphlet will be sent to anyone sending postage.

MONG the most famous paintings of Turner, the celebrated English artist, is "The Slave Ship." It depicts a vessel heeling to the wind under full sail, as if pursued by an invisible fury. Below it the waves heave, sullen and ominous; above and behind it the clouds are gathering darkly for a storm that shall blast the infamous craft to splinters. Over the picture the artist has thrown a sinister atmosphere, an air of lurking doom, as if an angry Nemesis were marching over the waters, awaiting the moment to strike.
The picture expresses the abhorrence with which slave ships and the slave trade had come to be regarded after nearly four centuries. In the early part of the nineteenth century it had been outlawed by the United States, the leading nation of Europe, which had warships cruising up and down the coast of Africa with orders to seize vessels of every nationality which carried cargoes of slaves.
prominent among the slave runners of his time. By birth a Franco-Hallian, by adoption a Spanish, by experience an American, he was an integral member of a countral, unencumbered by money. His life was typical of his kind. He large ships, he owned big slave factories, he made plenty of money he was an able navigator, a fearless fighter, a keen business man.
In spite of the united efforts of the civilized nations, adventurous and insurpricious men could always be found to smuggle slaves out of Africa. The profits of such work, when successful, were much greater than those of honest industry, and its practitioners were mostly desperate men who were already outcasts from society. When the Napoleonic wars ended many soldiers, out of a job and unwilling to settle down, turned to slave-running, which gratified their instinct for pillage, piracy, mutiny and general lawlessness.
If the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean could be probed a pavement of African skeletons would be found reaching from Africa to America. The inhumanity of the slave trade from Africa to America in human history; they were made to sit on each other's laps for a whole voyage. The resulting stench was appalling, and sailors hardly exaggerated when they said that they could smell a slave ship five miles to windward.
One Captain Homans perpetrated a classic infamy. His ship, loaded with slaves, was trapped one afternoon by four warships, which overtook him by nightfall. Under cover of the darkness he tied his six hundred slaves to the anchor chain and held them in place with officers from the warships boarded the slaver not a slave was in sight, and in the absence of evidence Homans went free.

prominent among the slave runners of his time. By birth a Franco-Italian, by adoption a Spanish, by experience an American, he was an international scoundrel, unencumbered by money or honesty. His life was marked by large ships, he owned big slave factories, he made plenty of money, he was an able navigator, a fearless fighter, a keen business man. But there seems to have been a curse on slave traders. Canot, one of the most prosperous, made money from the slave trade, his life he was a burn on the wharves of Baltimore, begging strangers for the price of a drink.
His life in some ways resembles that of Captain Harry Dean, whose adventures are described in "The Pedro Gorino." The two men, of course, differed widely. Dean was a gentleman and Canot was a scout; Dean's objects were scouted; and his vision idealistic, while Canot's purpose was that of a -l-rational Wolf. But they had Africa in common and their descriptions of native life and customs are similar. Africa casts a spell over all who touch hcr.
Canot's story illustrates anew the old truth that a crook will find a way to be a crook, no matter what the difficulty; in pursuit of foul money he will show an enterprise and bravery that would make a dozen fortunes in legitimate business. The voyage of one of Canot's ships, the Estrella, is a use in point. She was on her way to Cuba with a cargo of slaves. A storm came up. At the moment when all the sailors were needed to save the ship the slaves below mutinied and rushed up on the deck. As if this British warship caught sight of the Estrella and began to shout It happened that the Estrella got away, subdued the mutiny with bullets and boiling water, and weathered the storm; but the incident shows how far out of his way a crook will go for the sake of being crooked.
A good part of this book is taken up with Canot's adventures in dodging warships sent out by various nations to suppress the slave trade. And warships were not the only danger; the slavers preyed on each other, like the liqueur hiljackers of today. Many a slaver brought a cargo to this country without having been near Africa. Captain himself set up a ship with the idea of capturing ships on the high seas and robbing them of their human cargo: This scheme, he figured, saved the trouble of collecting and paying for slaves in Africa.
Yet Cannot and others like him, engaged in the most infamous business on the face of the earth, had the nerve to rail at "dishensh" dealers. These dealers had various dogs, like the old-time horse dealers. They would take a native emancipated by disease and bleat him looked like a drug till his muscles had no sooner had they got their money and departed than the native would drop dead from the dope. Thus slave trading was a traffic in which everybody cut everybody else's throat if he got a chance.
The greatest African suppliers of slaves were the Mohammedans. Their religion forbids them to hold slaves, but says nothing about killing them. The Mohammedans would not allow any African of their faith to be sold as a slave; but he said that "unbelievers deserved to be killed" the rest of their lives among Christians—the worst fate that a Mohammedan could think of.

To a Brown Siren
THE SIGHTS of your seven lovers
Are a sad song to me,
Enslaving love of seven brown men
Is like a symphony.
Like seven fiddles in harmonies
strrain
Imploring Cupid's bow be bent,
And playing sweet music just for
you—
Just for your heart's content.
Like seven date palms in a desert
vast
Bursting into fruit,
Such is this wasted sweetness of
love
Harkening to a siren's flute.
To them your laughter is a pretty
walk.
They dance in illusion long:
I, too, would whirl in rhythmic
grace
Were it not a siren's song.
