SNOWDEN MAY GET NEW TRIAL Argument For New Trial To Be Heard in Towson Courthouse Next Monday MAY GO HIGHER Court of Appeals May Eventually Hold Fate Of Convicted Colored Man That John Snowden, the Annapolis colored man convicted last week at Towson of the murder of Mrs. Lottie Brandon, did not have a fair trial and is not guilty of the foul crime of which he is charged is the well high universal opinion of all who followed the details of the trial of this most sensational murder case. The evidence upon which Snowden was convicted was not only criminal and flimsy, but showed the most glaring discrepancies, while there were a number of clauses that in the minds of the laymen were never satisfactorily run down. Brandon, it will be remembered, was a stenographer and typewriter at the Naval Experiment Station across the Severn river from the Naval Academy. According to the Naval Academy he returned from work on the afternoon of August 5th and gave his wife lying in a pool, of blood, everything in disorder and the door of the refrigerator damaged. It appears that he called in the neighbors, but did not notify the police for sometime afterward. One of the clues that appears not to have been fully followed up was that given by Mrs. Brandon's sister, Mrs. Redmond. It was Mrs. Redmond who said that a next door neighbor paid undue attention to the slain woman during husband's absence. Thomas King, an instructor at the Naval Academy, and his wife lived in the house adjourning the home of the Brandon's. The detectives learned that Mr. King arrived in Annapolis on July 11th and leased the cottage. They further say that he frequented the Brandon house during the husband's absence and that he and his wife talked with Mrs. Brandon on the morning of her death. Young Dice, a white teen boy, sat he went to the room on the day of the murder to deliver a 5-cent piece of ice and found the rear part of the house closed, blinds drawn and doors leading to yard locked. Two bits of testimony upon which the State laid so much stress have not appealed strongly to the lay mind. That one piece what was going on in a room across the street 'through a window that was heavily screened, does not appear convincing, nor does the finding of skin. (said to be that of a Negro) beneath the nails of the dead woman after the body has passed through the hands of two undertakers speak well for the efficiency of these exponents of the funeral directors' art. That the ruling of the presiding judge did not strike the counsel for the defense as being fair is evidenced by the large number of exceptions noted by them. Upon these facts a motion for a new trial has been made, argument concerning which will be heard next Monday, and if not granted an appeal is to be taken to the State's highest court. GRIMKE MAKES COMPLAINT Washington, D.C., February 7th. The current estimates of the District of Columbia, as submitted by the board of Commissioners, do the schools of the colored community a gross injustice, according to Archibald H. Grimke, president of the Washington branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The association head made this assertion in a statement submitted in behalf of the association in regard to the provision for the buildings and grounds of the colored public schools of the city in the appropriation bill for 1970. In the statement Mr. Grimke points out that the item of buildings and grounds is fundamental, and that it is vital to the welfare of future generations of school children. "I say that profound injury will be done to the development of the colored community unless Congress insists that the fair and square thing be done for the colored schools in this fundamental item of buildings and grounds," states the association head. "The rights and welfare not only of the present generation of school children are at stake, but the rights of and welfare of future generations" SESSION OF BISHOPS TO CONVENE IN LOUISVILLE Prominent Ministers and Bishops From All Parts of the Country to be in Attendance.

He denied that colored soldiers had been given uniforms cast off by whites, and asserted that in food, clothing and other things pertaining to army life, the colored soldiers had been treated exactly as are the whites. He told the man if they have any grievance they should not tell their comrades about them, but bring the matter directly to his attention.

Carver, Director of the Tuskegee Experiment Station, has just returned from Washington, where he went at the invitation of the Department of Agriculture, to demonstrate the sweet potato products, which he has been experimenting with successfully during the past year. Prof. Carver reports that his meeting in Washington was most encouraging and states that it is the purpose of the Government to make future experiments with the sweet potato to ascertain how some of the eight products which he has worked out may be used in connection with the nation's war program of food economy. Concerning the dried sweet potato, one of the products which Jifr. Carver has been experimenting with, The Burial New Yorker says: "Prof. George W. Curver, of Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, recently sent us samples of dried sweet potatoes, the first we have ever seen. They came in excellent condition, and our people pronounced them quite equal to the fresh product when cooked. It was only necessary to soak them for a short time, and then cook in the ordinary way. These potatoes came in such an excellent condition, and were near to the fresh product, that it seems as if this preparation of the sweets ought to become a great industry. It is possible to produce more food from an acre of sweet potatoes than can be produced from any other crop growing in this country, and the very stored of the sweet is such that unless stored carefully it is short-lived. Some one in the South will find it possible to develop a great business in drying and selling sweet potatoes. Attitude of Federated Labor Toward The Negro Theme at Confer- New York, February 6. The presen- t attitude of the American Federa- tion of Labor toward the Negro, and what the Negro is doing to make good with the opportunity now open to him on account of the scarcity of labor caused by the war were discussed in a series of conferences clated by The National League on Urban Condition. Among Negroes, with headquarters at 2303 7th avenue, on January 28. 2, and 39, at the Russell Sage Founda- tion Building, 22nd street and Lexington avenue. The first session was called to order Tuesday afternoon of last week by Dr. E. P. Roberts, chairman of the local committee. Rev. Win. M. Moss, pastor of Concord Baptist Church, Brooklyn, welcomed the delegates. Dr. T. O. Fuller, of the Uphar League of Memphis, Tenn., in responding said: "The conditions caused by a great world war where there is need of men and money, where there is common need, common suffering as a sorrow—added to that the exodus which threatened industrial stability, of the South, I believe tells that a new way is drawing, and that we should speak to our leaders of the South that they go forward." Historical sketches of the organization and its growth were given by Miss Elizabeth Walton, of this city Dr. George E. Haynes, of Nashville, Mrs. S. W. Lagun, of Philadelphia, and Mr. L. Hollingworth Wood, president of the National Urban League. Mr. William C. Grimes, secretary to Mr. Julius Rosenwald, a member of the Chicago Urban League, said that he regarded the establishment of the League in Chicago as a blessing and that if the League can point the way for extensive housing work in this city, Mr. Rosenwald is in a position to finance such a proposition.

NEGRO SHOULD UNIONIZE A. L. Manly and Miss Norris, of the Arnstrom Association, Philadelphia, and Mr. J. H. Miller, of Chester, Pa., thought that it might be well for the Negro to headline awhile before entering the unions, but it was the sense of the majority who participated in the open discussion that the Negro should become unionized with the whites as soon as possible for his own best interest, as well as the interest of the unions. Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, was the presiding officer at the session which convened at $ 8 o'clock. Before introducing the speakers, Dr. Moton said: "The labor question of the present day is more acute than ever before in the history of our country, indeed in the history of the world. Negroes as never are being recognized as a factor in this labor problem. The migration of thousands of Negroes from the South, while it has magnified certain social problems in the cities of the North, has, on the other hand, had its advantages to the Negroes themselves. There isn't any trouble now about the Negro finding employment. There is a question as to the character of employment sometimes. The things that this Leagrid should, in my opinion, emphasize, perhaps more than anything else just is, not only that Negroes should find profitable work and satisfactory workings as far as possible, that he should as far as possible, be influenced and induced to hold his jobs. We as friends of the Negroes should emphasize the importance of the fact that the war is making possible to the Negro race certain advantages that many of us did not expect to live to see. We should use every possible means to help the Negro seize and use these opportunities." Other speakers were: George Foster Peabody, of this city; Dr. A. A. Graham, of the Negro Organization Society, Hampton, Va.; John R. Shilladay, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; Hon. Emmett J.

Baldwin read the resolutions, and stated that a committee had been appointed to attend the sessions of the American Federation of Labor, at Washington, and to confer with the Department of Labor heads regarding the appointment of one or two Negro assistants in each of the burgers to adjust and distribute Negro labor to meet war and peace Philadelphia, Feb. 6.—A discussion of housing conditions among colored people due to recent immigration to the North held Thursday evening of last week in Friends' Meeting House attracted many of both races. "The Negro is suffering greatly from a lack of proper housing facilities in Philadelphia to accommodate the vast influx of labor which has come up from the South to work at Hog Island and other mighty industrial plants in the vicinity," said Bishop L. L. Coppin. "Not only does this affect a large labor turnover, but it also does in measurable harm to the Negro in making his life an unsatisfied one." Rev. C. A. Tindley told how race prejudice was one potent reason why the Negro was unable to find a decent deo. Dr. R. K. Wright spoke on "Statistics and Sociology." Other speakers were the Rev. J. C.

Nevertheless, the farmer is not altogether immune to iS'painphilets of the Food Administration, and like the city b he is"admonished to obsetve his meatless, wheatless and e less’ days to win the war. ye Recently Prof. George W Carver, of th eTuskegee Ex- cment Station, ealled the attention of the farmers at the *FAnnual Tuskegee Conference to new ways of saving food. eer Carver showed that there are “40 ways to use the cow res 1106 ways to use th epeanut, 43 ways to use the wild "¢axid more than 75 ways to use the sweet potato.” Fol- ping Tuskegee directions, it was said, a balance ration with ee ie variety and nutrition could be secured from the sweet “fato and peanut alone. By saving flour and meat and us- or these products, Prof. Carver explained colored farmers vil save money as well as food. : 24 TL will take time even in the South, to get accustomed to “ lsweet potato.meal substitute for corn and wheat flour tN Yelish boiled, fried, stewed and baked peanuts, while Sn j-same time giving up coffee for a substitute made from i. ‘Remembrances of the old roasting ears, ham, corn i} and real butter are likely to-make even a patriotic biér fall from grace and pinch a little off from the Allies (plies. One visitor at the conference remarked “they will "e-us eating acorns after a while.” It looks very much as 'ssuskegee were sterring in that direction. Yet at the rapid Fi-ease in cost of grain and vegetables, no one would be in- ed to protest against good wholesome bread made from frn flour. WHAT THE THIRD DEGREE WAS LIKE sgohn S-¢f,den, who was convicted on circumstantia! evi- i, of fae murder of the Brandon woman at Annapolis, coist week, testified that he went through a gruelling ReeeVegree” at the hands of the local Marshal of Police, \fitely: after his arrest, when he was brought to this if safe keeping. jowden testified that (1) he was forced to drink a_pint Heke: (2) that he was forced to sit on the edge of a jat’a table, so that when the chair was suddenly pulled jander -him he struck the point of his chin against the edge in falling; (3) that a loade dgun was placed be- mhis ear and he was told to confess or die, | “At the time Snowden was going thru these torments, mis-'on yemoved from the Central Station to Marshal Kisidoiis @=~He “was altogether without counsel and un- MY his rights. Friends secured an attorney, and, it is = made an effort to get to see the Marshal and thru “see Snowden. They were held off. by temporizings Suses until finally, in violation of the law, permission to fowden was refused. " + course, the local police deny that they treated their er bfutally. If necessary, they would deny, too, that Phefused permission to allow Snowden to be seen by an mney. ‘ ‘The remarkable things about it all are that Snowden told iaight-forward story, and that the State's Attorney piit it i the-dufy to “make Annapolis safe for white women” and “to punish him because he is guilty.

REPUBLICANS IN {PE LEGISDATERS ‘Che action of the Republican mem- bers of the House in their unanimous support of the City Extension Bill last week, showed that they were men, loyal in the support of their party's pledge, and alive to what most Baltl- mioreans believe is for the city’s great- est advantage and development, Men who rejstrd, respect and earry out the platform promises of Uneir party, sre such who may be trusted by the peo- ple to do not only what their purty pledges, but ulso that which the peo- ple whont they represent there desire, and helleve for the community's best Interest.

Bailey Allen gives in the Pictorial Guide the following meth- ods of using many things that American housewives are prone to throw away. --- Dry Stale Bread, and Crusts—Put through medium knife of food-chopper and store in jars with prefored tops to prevent rancidity. Keep buttered bread or toast separate and use soon after preparing. Use for fish, vegetables and meat scallops; gravy, sour, bisque thickenings; for griddle cakes, muffins, biscuits and frittata, adddings, blanc-mange and cereals as well as for all sorts of crumming purposes. State Cake may be used in puddings, fritters, gelatins, blanc-mange, fruit molds, and in making fresh cake and steamed puddings. Orange, Grapefruit and Lemon Peel should be scraped of all membrane and used at once for sugar peel, for candy, or used in making cakes, puddings, cookies and in garnishing sweet dishes. If desirable, collect it gradually, keeping it in slightly salted water in a cool place for four or five days. Use fresh in reinforcing fruit beverages, gelatins and sabrets. Trimming from Salad Greens—Stew in water or stock, together with a little pickle spice, add rice to thicken (three tablespoonfuls to a quart of vegetable stock) and, at the end of the cooking, strain and season with a boulton cube. A real blood tonic. Use cress in the same way, also mince any left-over sprigs and sprinkle over steak or fish. Cauliflower Leaves—Cook twice as long as the cauliflower, chop, season as greens and use to supplement the flower itself. Celery Tips—Spread on papers to dry, store in jars and use for seasoning. Use fresh as a basis for soup, a garnish for salad or meats, and for frying in a thin batter. Leftover Vegetables—Peas, Carrots, beets, or string beans, corn, asparagus, radishes, green peppers, cabbage, use alone or in any combination in soups, either in stock or with bountiful cakes, salads or scallops. Carrots, turnips, beets, lima beans, potatoes, etc. use in vegetable hash, soups, casseroles with ham or smoked fish. Stewed or scalloped tomatoes, use in casseroles, with baked beans, in soups, to make aspic, in sauces and bread and cereal dressings. Vegetable Parmes—Scrub vegetables well and put all parings, including those from potatoes, into a general stock pot. Cooked Cereals—Use in stock pot, soups, scallops, meat, fish and vegetable leaves, griddle cakes, waffles, muffins, puddings and croquettes. Leftover Scramblebelt, Fried Pancaked Eggs—Use minced in sandwiches, potato or fish salad or soup. Rice Water—Use in stock pot, or as base for soup. Sour Milk—In making biscuits, all kinds of grain mustn’t steamed or baked brown, whole wheat or graham bread, spice cake, spiced cookies, ginger bread, and ginger drop cookies, butter cakes, boiled salad dressing. Sour Cream—Use in making fruit ice cream, cream fruit sherbets, chicken gravy, cheese cake, cooked salad dressing, uncooked cold staw, dressing, whipped in mynausea, to enrich cream of tomato soup and in shortening any of the quick grainbreads, ginger breads or crusts for meat, vegetable or fish pies. Chicken Fat—Fry out and use in making three minute pie crusts, cakes, and cookies. Beef Fat and Fat From Stock Pot—Fry out and use with one-third lard for deep fat frying or plain for sautéing. Beef fat alone for shortening cakes, cookies and puddings, biscuits, dumplings and pie crusts. Odds and Ends of Fruit—Use in fruit salads, fruit gelatins, fruit cups, fruit soups, fruit beverages, tapioca, compotes of rice and farina, and in cases of jay berries, as raspberries, strawberries and so on, use in drinks and for corn starch puddings. LeFT-over Fish—Use in croquettes with rice or potato, creamed as sauce over brown rice, in salads with celery, cabbage, radishes, or shredded ramaline, cress or lettuce, or use to season cream of fish soup, or for stuffing peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers or cabbage leaves. Bits of Cheese and Rinds—Put the cheese scraps thru food-chopper and use in Welsh rarebit, cheese sauce for fish, rice or hominy; in vegetable scallops; creamed potatoes, German style, cheese croquettes etc. Grate cheese from rinds and use on spaghetti, in creamed vegetables, to make cheese sticks, cheese biscuits, cheese pie crust for fruit pies, cheese toast and serve with stock vegetable soups. Mash some potatoes in the usual way with butterine and a little, hot milk. Butter pans, some scallop shells in patty pans, fill them with the mashed potatoes, make them smooth on the top and then draw the bake of a fork over them. Sprinkle finely grated bread crumbs on the top and lay very small pieces of butter here and there upon it. Place potatoes on the top, where they will brightly brown but not scorch, and serve on a neatly folded napkin in the scallop shells. Time, quarter or an hour to brown the potatoes. Peel bananas and remove threads. Cut in halves and roll in sifted macaron dust and then inflour. Drain well on unglazed paper. Brush over with marmulde and sprinkle with finely chopped pistachios. Serve with current jelly sauce. Powdered sugar can be used instead of the macaron dust, and blanched almonds instead of pistachios. Mix thoroughly one cup of chopped cold cooked beets (caused if you do not have fresh ones) three tablespoons grated horse radish, two tablespoons lemon juice, two teaspoon sugar and tablespoon of salt. That marked and spotted velvet can be restored to its original freshness by rubbing briskly with a freshly cut onion and smoothing directly after with a damp linen handkerchief, and then pass across a hot flat iron? That speckled, stained or mildew cotton goods can be dyeed a satisfactory cream or corn in its liquid made by boiling several large red onions and all available red onion peel in a quart of water. That potato water forms an excellent cleanser for silk no matter what the color? That every quart of water to be used for washing a dress, pare and grate one large potato. Put the grated potato into the water which must be kept at room temperature but without disturbing. Then very carefully pour off the clear liquid from the sediment into a large vessel. Dip the silk up and down and then without ringing hang it up and let it drip until nearly dry. Then lay flat on a table and wipe first on one side and then the other. If pressing is required, do so between flannel and ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` A DAINTY PIECE OF EDGING THE FEDERAL CONFERENCE SELECTED RECIPES. ESCALLOPED POTATOES FRIED BANANAS BEET RELISH DID YOU KNOW 8. moderate iron. That a teaspoonful of lemon juice added to boiling rice, will not only whiten the grains but will give them a pleasant flavor. If the color has been taken out of silk by fruit stains, a little ammonia will usually restore it. That nickle and silver ornaments can be kept bright by rubbing them with a woolen cloth saturated with spirits of ammonia. That washing the hands in vinegar will whiten them and keep them from chapping after having the hands in soapsuds. That a few drops of ammonia in a cup of warm water, applied carefully, will remove spots from paintings and chromes. Keep odd buttons in a wide-mouthed bottle such as candy comes in; then when a button is needed you can see at a glance if the one required is there. Keeping the white and dark buttons separated is the best plan, and the bottle is an improvement over the old-time button bag. That the best way to work button-holes, especially large ones for coats and other garments, is to mark the position and then put two rows of machine stitching around it. Afterward cut between the two stitchings and the hole will be found much easier to work, as this prevents all fraying of the material. REVIVAL OF JET. The sad fact that so many women are in mourning in Europe has again brought back the fashion of jet jewelry and trimming. To meet this demand the old mines of Whitby have been reopened in England. WASHING SWEATERS One approaches the task of washing a sweater: gubiously. There is always the lingering fear that the sweater will be stretched out of shape even if it is not hung up. One of the best methods is to stretch between supports a piece of cheesecloth or a rubber band. This. In this manner the sweater will not be subjected to a circulation of air and will dry quicker. A PLAIN DRESS. A fine white serge dress plainly made and adorned with tiny black buttons, can be, given a Parisian effect by working here and there on it, whenever it looks best, rows of plain blanket suit with black silk, the stitchers' quarter of an airy apart. Instead of the edge of the collar, cuffs, both plants, work a quarter of an inch from the edge. Then work a row on the hem. The effect will be most unusual and might attractive. TO MEND GLOVES Perhaps the best way to mend gloves that have lost a clasp is to remove the clasp as neatly as possible then to sew up the holes on the right side and cover them with pearl buttons. On the left side work button holes. The gloves then will present a neat appearance and can be fastened for a glove that cannot be fastened is untidy. # TOWSON Towson, Md. February 7—Rev. Robert Gross, preached two sermons at Mr. Calvary A. M. E. Church Sunday Communication was administered in the morning. The protracted effort at St. James A. U. M. P. Church is meeting with great success, several converts being the result. Mrs. Viola Richardson, of Philadelphia, is conducting the services.

TO GROW LONG STRAIGHT HAIR TO GROW LONG STRAIGHT HAIR You Need a Real Scalp Food There are so many so-called hair growt, in the market, large number of which are no more than perfumed grease, it is wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasonap. Quinasonap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasonap lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but instead use Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasonap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugstress or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and we will mail them to you. Write to Seeby Drug Co., 79 East 130th street, New York City, for a sample of Quinadde, mentioning the name of this paper.—Advt. READ THE EX-RAY OF LIFE the book which reveals the secret of success.

Campbell, B. S. M. D., 1369 N. Currey St., Baltimore, Md. For others who do not know the truth and are suffering as I suffered, I wish to state that about two years I had a terrible cough, weakness and pain. Mace attended me for some time, and said I had tuberculosis. I was sent to the Johns Hopkins, and they worked on me for some time and wanted me to go to Bayview, but as I got worse all the time, I said I was sick. Mace attended me anywhere else. I went down until I weighed only 66 lbs. Someone told me to try Dr. Campbell, the Lung Specialist, 1369 N. Carey street, Baltimore, Md., as he was the best out on lungs. I went to him in company with 66 lbs. He examined me and told me the truth. He put me on the Lung Base Treatment, and I started to change for the better immediately. Thank God am living, and on November 17, 1317, I weighed and tip the scale at 48 lbs. My faults were that I was sick in my life. I know several others Dr. Campbell cured of the same trouble, and those who are suffering with the same trouble should know where they can best be helped. Mrs. Bertha P. Smith Back River, Rosville P.
