Discussing the bill before the Committee, presided over by Senator Disharonn of Wisconsin the committee proposed to raise the salaries of white teachers 50, 55 and 60 per cent for third, second and first grade teachers, respectively. The proposed increase is 32, 45 and 55 per cent respectively for the same grades. He made it plain: how under the bill a white elementary school teacher will be paid and a colored elementary school teacher only $250 for doing the same work.

He added that giving white teachers more salaries than colored was a violation of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of Baltimore, contended that colored people of the State paid onenth of the taxes and were entitled to one tenth of the school fund.

Elliott Says Colored People Will Seek Peace In Quiet There If Whites Put Theatre On Avenue If there was anyone at the meeting of the Police and Jail Committee of the City Council at the City Hall Tuesday afternoon who savored the creation of a theatre in Drudg Hill they did not voice his objections publicly. Five speakers spoke against locating the theatre in the residential section, and when they had concluded, Chairman Towers asked if anyone present who wanted to speak on the proposition. Councilman Nitzgerald whispered "no" in a subdued voice and the hearing was Altho there were no open declarations made by those who favored the building of a Drudg Theatre to cost $250,000, with a eating capacity of 2100, backed by majority white capital of the sixteen hundred bldg of the house, was considerable oblige done before the hearing and City Councilman Dennis, said to "have some money" in the project wasted considerable time trying to convince S. S. Booker, Dr. Howard E. Young and others that a theatre would be built in the Old Folks' Home, and Trinity Baptist Church is that block. Scattered around in the leather armchairs usually occupied by the city solons were City Councilmen Warner T. McGuinn and W. L. Hitzgerald; but neither had a word to say. Dr. J. R. J. Kruger, churchless, good by the corner walls, conspicuous by his silence. Jack Nelson Fortune, Dr. Winstard, George A. Watty, George Lottier, Rev. Beate Elliott and Thomas R.

Mitchell, member of the Board of Managers of the Old Folks' Theatre, was the head of the objectors' and put the thing in a concise form when he said "we do not object" to a theatre any more than we do to a fish market or a horse stable, but we do not want them in one of the best residential blocks in the city. Leo McMahon, white of the Committee, waded into "Reform" with questions about whether the church used movies, if colored people themselves did not want the site for a movie, together with other foolish queries, but the Reverend soon shut him up with answers right to the point. Mr. Böbker declared that with two theatres in the ward a third was not needed.

Mr. S. S. Morris, general secretary of the white Y. M. C. A. represented the directors and owners of the Drudg Hill Avenue Branch and said that colored people should have the say as to kind of buildings they would be built in. He said that the Council should not think of running colored people out of a neighborhood into other neighborhoods perhaps white where they would not be wanted. Rev. Beale Elliott spoke in the same vein, and warned the Council Committee if colored people who were satisfied with their homes on the Avenue were run out by a movie theatre they would be called select" street like Eutaw Place or Charles street, where whites only now live, and that he did not believe segregation. With a good deal of emotion, both Rev. Elliott and Dr. Young asserted that while they knew of one colored men who were willing to sell the bodies of a coll- lege, they were in houses of de- legacy and gambling holes for money, they did not intend that that thing should get a foothold in the upper part of the avenue to make more money. They said hat quiet and decency to them zero worth more than money, and they colored stockholders are, who are trying to Frank A. Furst, white, and others to erect the theatre, they did not say. Despite the fact that no one poke for the theatre, it is whisper d downtown that the committee will report the measure favorably. White promoters are said to have meet with the city officials.

AT THE CHURCHES Arguments On Both Sides Of Question At Two Meetings Held On Monday While members of the Baptist Ministerial Meeting which convened at Union Baptist Church on Monday, overseeing the unification of the two Baptist Colored Baptist Minister's Conference, meeting at Perkins Square Baptist Church, discussion, took action Monday which postpones efforts at condition for the immediate future. How, D. G. Mack started the ball game when he offered a motion that so much of the minutes of the previous meeting referred to the manning of a committee with jurisdiction he stricken out of unification. Rev. P. C. Neal strongly opposed the motion, saying that discussions should meet together to discuss the possible settling of their differences and that, if no agreement could be reached, it would leave the conferences in limbo. He argued that, pursuant to action taken on Monday, February 16, ministers from both sides had met and had planned another meeting to be held at Tuskeget Baptist Church on Monday, February 16. Rev. W. W. Allen, W. F. Dickerson, A. M. Molock and J. King were among those whoided with the position taken by Dr. Neal. Theonomus made the decision, he said, the reason for the action to strip the committee of the power to discuss unification was the allegation that some of the ministers of the New England Baptist Convention of statements derogatory to the faction meeting at Perkins Square Baptist Church. The committee will only have power to act in concert with a simple plea to the entertainment of the New England Baptist Convention. Revs. Juntius Gray, J. H. Green, J. H. Robertson, J. A. Frye, S. J. Williamson, R. T. Winn and J. H. Bunley were among those at the meeting of differences, even agreeing to meet at a church acceptable to the other side, to consider a new constitution and elect new officers The committee appointed by the meeting at Perkins Square Church in New York, W. W. Allen, P. C. Neal, W. W. Allen, W. R. Clock, J. H. Whittier, and R. T. Reed. The other committee included H. J. H. Taylor, W. J. Winston, W. W. Allen, J. H. Whittier, J. Green, J. Crawley, Junius Gray, J. W. Williamson and W. Anderson. REV. WARD BURIED Was Former Policeman And Pastor of Fulton Baptist Church For Past Eighteen Years Rev.

"We will then be placed upon an equal basis with the women's missionary petition, and be in line to cooperate with the women's boards of the country. We are asking for that which will place us before the Women's Missionary Society's status to be recognized in all great religious and missionary bodies, whether national or inter-ethnic, and our work will not cause the Women's Parent Mite Missionary Society to lose its identity, but rather add to its name as well as usefulness. The petition also points out that Miss Hallel Q. Brown was refused a seat in the big women's missionary board in 1810, because she did not represent a distinct women's board.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES ONE YEAR ..... $2.00 SIX MONTHS ..... 1.25 THREE MONTHS ..... .75 SINGLE COPY ..... .05 PAYABLE IN ADVANCE FRIDAY, FEB. 27, 1920 It is hard to believe that Jack Johnson wants to get back to the U. S. A. bad enough to spend a year in jail. Scientists have discovered a serum calculated to prolong the life of man to 540 years. At that they haven't anything on Enoch and Methuselah. If the occurrence at Union Station the other day is a fair sample of what goes on further South, the question arises where do colored porters and waiters on pullman cars eat, or do they eat at all? This is the workingman's day. It has been a long time coming, but it is here. The marriage license clerk in Newark, N. J. reports that the cost of living is so high that 99 men out of every hundred wear soft collars. "The Negro controls the South" is the information volunteered by the Chicago Tribune, and explains itself by saying that nothing is attempted in the legislation until it is known how it will affect the colored people. Following this line of reasoning the South controls the Democratic party, and the Democratic party controls the government. In the final analysis, the Negro controls the country. In proof of this the Tribune demonstrates that the country is dry because it was dangerous for the Negro in the South to drink, and further that Congress turned down universal military service only recently because the South said it was dangerous to give the Negro firearms. Whoever thot that the noteless colored man in the South had so much power? IS A JAPANESE WHITE? Two years ago, Y. Soga, a Japanese newspaper editor of Honolulu applied for naturalization papers. The courts of Hawaii ruled against him on the ground that only white persons and natives of Africa can become citizens unless they are born in the United States. Soga contends that he is "white," and backed by his government has appealed the case to the Supreme Court, where it is now pending. While the United States Constitution contains no bar to yellow, brown or red men becoming citizens of this country, the Naturalization Laws are quite specific on this point. They read in part: Any alien, white, or of African nativity or descent, is required if he desires to become naturalized to file a declaration of intention in the clerk's office of a court having jurisdiction, and such declaration must not be filed until the alien has reached the age of eighteen. The law is delicately worded so as not to give offense to red, brown and yellow races, but is nevertheless specific in stating what races may become naturalized, and it is under this provision that the Courts of Hawaii acted in excluding Mr. Soga. Similar legislative enactments exclude colors from becoming citizens in Australia and white races from enjoying citizenship rights in Hawaii, so that the United States is not alone in restrictive naturalization laws. A now phase is put on the matter however, by the contention of Mr. Soga that a Japanese belongs to the white not the yellow race, and is therefore eligible for U.S. citizenship. This is the question up to the Supreme Court, and its decision will be awaited. It is hard to believe that Jack Johnson wants to get back to the U. S. A. bad enough to spend a year in jail.

THE PASTORAL LETTER Cardinal Gibbons' pastoral letter read in Catholic churches last Sunday urges, among other things, the following: Education of the Negro and Indian Fair Opportunity for all men Interracial good will. At the same time mob violence and attempts to stir up interracial hatred, are "earnestly deprecated." In other years, Cardinal Gibbons has dealt heavy blows for manhood rights of all men whether Catholic or non-Catholic, and the question is uppermost in the minds of many as to whether "education" includes also education for the priesthood. At the same time imb violence and attempts to stir up interracial hatred, are "earnestly depreciated." In other years, Cardinal Gibbons has dealt fiercely blows for manhood rights of all men whether catholic or non-Catholic, and the question is upper host in the minds of many as to whether "education" includes also education for the priesthood. MOTHERHOOD The death of a quarter of a million babies each year in the United States, one hundred thousand of which die almost at birth, and the death of one in every one hundred and fifty mothers giving birth to children, has led the United States Public Health Service to inquire what can be done to stop this wiltful service. It found out that many mothers die from the use of patent medicines, guaranteed to make childbirth easy. All of them, it says, are frauds. Hundreds off mothers and children die because the mother does not go to a physician for examination before the time of delivery, or because mothers do not eat the right foods. What are the right things to do to make mother good easy, is the subject of a little pamphlet issued by the United States Public Health Service. The death of a quarter of a million babies each year in the United States, one hundred thousand of which die almost at birth, and the death of one in every one hundred and fifty mothers giving birth to children has led the United States Public Health Service to inquire what can be done to stop this awful sacrifice. It found out that many mothers die from the use of potent medicines, guaranteed to make child-birth easy. All of them; it says, are franks. Hundreds oft mothers and children die because the mother does not go to a physician for examination before the time of delivery, or because mothers do By consistent agitation of the right kind the Maryland Medical Association has succeeded in getting the consent of Health Commissioner Jones to appoint colored physicians and nurses for the public schools. It is a step forward, and the Association and its friends deserve praise for the success that has attended their efforts. The appointments have been hanging fire for sometime on account of the lack of funds with which to pay additional physicians and an account of the intimation that colored nurses would have a jim crow office in which to make their reports at the Health Department. Happily a way has been found out by the physicians volunteering to serve without pay for this year, and by admission of the white Nurses' Association that segregation was not necessary. Mr. Broening and his administration are likewise to be congratulated for their public recognition of the fact that colored physicians and nurses are the proper ones to care for the health of colored school children. For killing a fellow workman, Haywood Metis was pursued by an armed mob of angry friends and white men with shot guns barely succeeded in saving him from lynching. This was in Kingston, N.C. last week, and is but another sign of the growth of the lynching fever. A youth can start a boulder down a mountain side but a giant cannot stop it until it reaches the bottom. In anticipation of the adoption of the nineteenth amendment, colored women of Richmond met last week to discuss candidates and parties in general and get ready for the elections next fall. This is what may be called taking time by the forelock. WHITE WOMEN ARE NOT FOOLS with Haughton Hooker, white, in a paid intern in one of the daily papers last week, insured the politicians at Annapolis for a vote for the suffrage amendment. She said of Governor Hitchie, the suffragists will an opportunity to prove themselves and on that occasion, politics will be cleaning up that good housewives desire-itionists who were opposed to women in Maryland as named by Mrs. Hood; Kelly, Harry Wolf, Senator Smith, and the vice and liquor interests. The obstructionists declared that they ought because the colored"woman would vote to vote. The APRO-AMERICAN intern last week declared that it was not the woman that the politicians feared, and it calls attention to the matter week because it is worth noting that her and the suffragists were not misled by gabboo of Negro domination. Edith Haughton Hooker, white, in a paid advertisement in one of the daily papers last week severely censured the politicians at Annapolis for failure to vote for the suffrage amendment. She said: "In spite of Governor Litchie, the suffragists will soon have an opportunity to prove themselves at the polls, and on that occasion, politics will get the thorn cleaning up that good housewives desire." The obstructionists who were opposed to woman in politics in Maryland as named by Mrs. Hooker included: Kelly, Harry Wolf, Senator Smith, Bob Crain and the vice and liquor interests. The obstructionists declared that they opposed suffrage because the colored woman would get the chance to vote. The APRO-AMERICAN in these columns last week declared that it was not the colored woman that the politicians feared, but all women, and it calls attention to the matter again this week because it is worth noting that Mrs. Hooker and the suffragists were not missed by the old bugaboo of Negro domination. WISDOM IN THE KINDERGARTEN Rev. Dr. Joseph Krauskopf of Kenseth Israel Synagogue, Philadelphia, speaking before the students of Bryn Mawr College in the Chapel last Sunday told them that the "Bible has never been all that has been claimed for it by its overzealous friends, nor all that has been said against it by its adversaries." Dr. Krauskopf told the young women that the Bible was the work of human hands, and as such could not be perfect. "It has come down to us," he said, "by word of mouth, has suffered mis-translation, been matched, pieced and fixed up, and it would be as absurd to look for perfection there as for wisdom and elegance in the kindergarten. So far have we come in this twentieth century Dr. Scott Nearing preached socialism and was dismissed from the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Krauskopf advances the same theory in theology and creates but a ripple of excitement." PLEDGING CANDIDATES IN ADVANCE Voters who are inclined to discount the convention of the Lincoln League on account of the leadership of Roscoe Conkling Simmons, derisively termed Roscoe "Cuckling" Simmons by a Cleveland newspaper last week, will nevertheless find no fault with the platform of the Convention as printed in last week's AFRO-AMERICAN. The first four planks read: 1. Full suffrage for every Negro in the South, or reduction of the representation of Southern States in Congress. 2. Stringent Federal legislation to stop lynching. 3. No Negro delegate to the National Republican Convention shall vote for the nomination of any candidate for the presidency until such a man has publicly stated he will support passage of above mentioned laws. 4. No Negro voter shall vote for any candidate for Congress or for the Presidency unless he support the passage of above laws, and if elected enforced them. Keeping up the good work, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People sent out from its New York office last week a questionnaire directed to all the presidential candidates asking them where they stand on matters vitally affecting the colored people. All of which goes to show that it is going to be harder than ever this year to coral the colored voter. Like the union man the Negro is asking what will you do for me before election time and not after. Along the same line, the New York World announces that it will support Herbert Hoover for the presidency, whether he runs on the Democratic or Republican ticket. The Philadelphia Record takes a similar stand by saying that "no one knows a man's views on the most vital subjects of the day, simply because he describes himself as Democrat or Republican and adds that it does not pledge itself to support the Democratic party blindfolded, although it is nominally a Democratic newspaper. Everybody appears to be giving notice that he is going to look below the party label for the party principles and the party candidates. It is a good thing. According to statistics compiled by a life insurance company, 33 percent of a man's time is taken up in sleep; holidays, Sundays and recreation account for twenty-two percent; meals eight percent, and work thirty-seven percent. This is the average man, but the fellow who actually gets ahead works fifty percent of his time; sleeps and cares like the average mortal, and uses about twenty percent of the remainder in thinking about what he will do. THE AFRO-AMERICAN Thinks High School Pupils Should Earn Extra Credits In Music. Editor of ABO's Arts and Science, I am probably that next season the Colored High School students will be able to show their basic merit and earn extra credits in music the same as the white pupils do because of their work done for work done in one year. It is advisable that colored undergraduates confer with their principals at once on their behalf so that a co-educational effort will be shown their deep interest in the matter and eligible students enroll themselves for this special advantage and surplus credits between now and the next year. They will be tendered this 23rd day of Feb. 1920, by Mr. Denues, Professor in charge of the music of our public schools, a most intelligent and estimable gentleman to school who on purpose asking this privilege Many of my colored patrons having shown great aptitude in Technic, Theory and Composition. Sincerely, W. J. GREENTREE. 1603 Eutaw Place State Superintendent Stephens and His Crowd Are Consumed For Promoting Low Salaries To Colored Teachers and High Salaries. In light of Maryland's present educational scheme Stephens and his crowd have measured and are still measuring out education according to class. To the superior class of students, the study of education in its highest degree is measured out to them in full. To the so-called "inferior" class to which you and I belong, this apostle of educational autocracy measures out education, in a course that represents only half of Maryland's responsibility. Stephens and his crowd through this system have been in mind the so-called "inferior" race to the end that that class may become more or less inferior in education, in color and in mental color and Southern servility, although Stephens has been schreed enough to include in his half education scheme, enough education for the "inferior" race to know how much taxes on the basis of equal tax rates without regard to race, color, or creed, will have to be paid by the public. The blinds Stephens and his crowd have tried to mill down over the eyes of the public, his eyes have been opened to the realization that been made by the university believe that all people, colored and white, alike must be educated like.

FRANKLIN JOHNSON Has No Patience With Rosee "Cuckling" Simmons and His Crowd of Pussyfooters. To the King last year or so the country has been afflicted with many wind jammers who are long on inspiration, and short on information. Among us we count Simmons, recently Simmons has been speaking on Americanism. He says: "I am an American and I am the population of my country and countrymen." Now think of a Negro being proud of his country and countrymen, when he is not the population of my country and countrymen to whom the Ians and vanous are surning angers of light. Simmons also says he has fallen in the justice or his countrymen and he has no patience is his paw. He would have us to be patient with lynchings and burnings, patience with jim crow cars and the hoodhun mobs; patience with wrongs in the Negroes suffer. He would win lynch sentences, you would win the wrongs outter. Usa a fool's been patient we give him what won't get you got at. At Simmons he says who a boy of old State of the Americans more last year. Simmons says those that why speak Chicago Doyle are easy to see. They so anybody, his so-call of such Wilson.

He says it is mostly foreigners who type Negroes. In the government, the poor cent of the people are native Americans more Negroes were lynched last year than in any other State. Simmons knows his statement was false, but he is not guilty of him. By the way, why speak of Simmons and the Chicago Defender any longer, they are both russals of the bloody shirt. They are unprepared to advise anybody. They are not prepared to Americanism and of such hypocrisis as Woodrow Wilson. He together with Dr. Bob Mation and Bishop Connor will be looked on us traitors and who talks Negroes and unwilling to leadership. Very cordial yours. FREDERICK H.

We will take the Scripture for our proof that the Apostle was a million Catholics of America. We find in the Acts of the Apostles in the narrative of the Ethiopian "who went to Jerusalem worship in that great Temple God." I would have that priest to read Acts 8 verses to the crowd that God wants the Negro in Heaven. Also to st. Paul's epistle to the Romans 8. verses 26 to 38 which all men have in their hearts to be priest or layman, to be a statement of a prominent scientist the brain of the Negro is equal to that of the white.

Baltimore, Md., February 26—Miss Dorothy Wills' daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wills, who was a guest for the past three weeks of her family, Mrs. Robert Carratt and cousin, Mrs. Robert Carratt, and her aunt, George has returned to her home in Baltimore after a delightful TWO CHICAGO BANKS SUSPEND Run on Lincoln Bank Likely to Attach That Institution—Colored Citizens Pick Out Colored Bank to Put Money in Chicago, Ill., Feb. 26.—Failure of two private banks here and a run on the Lincoln State Bank, offered and controlled by colored banks means the success of the new colored State Bank, opened by Jesse Binga and others. Opening of the new colored bank and alleged connection of certain financiers with colored bombing in homes are said to caused the failure of the Lincoln Bank. To begin with some months ago, the R. W. Hunter banking establishment, private institutions, and the matter now is in the hands of the court with business suspended. Following this, the concern of R. W. Woodfulk, another private bank, became involved in difficulties and it has been placed in the hands of the receiver and busi- During the current week, a number of reports were circulated concerning the Lincoln State Bank, the majority of whose depositors are accounted on the bank and between five and ten thousand of the fifteen thousand depositors withdrew their money. The bank, however, is in a substantial condition and the payment fast is clerks can handle the business. The Lincoln State bank is being backed up thru this crisis by the white banks of the city, particularly the Continental and Commercial National Bank, one of the strongest institutions in the country. One of the officers of the Lincoln State Bank states that the run was caused by the bank's building and loan companies, who was refused a loan of $,000 at the bank for his company. There are other cases in which the Lincoln Bank has an interest in the Hyde Park and Kenwood Association segregation propaganda, but the officers deny any interest. Any bank has come to the relief of a number of residents in the district whose mortgages have fallen due and they were refused assistance by other banking institutions. Chas. A. White, vice president says: "The directors of the bank wish to assure the public that this organization towards the colored people, and we shall continue in the future to loan them money and help the same as we have in the past. This has been issued to Jesse Binga and others for the establishment of a State bank under the control and supervision of a number of our own group." New York, N. Y. Feb. 25. —The Negro employees of John Wannamaker contribute to the celebration of the last week to the celebration of Abraham Lincoln's birthday in the auditorium of the store. Every day from 2:30 to in the afternoon, the students filled both orchestra and balcony, the Robert Carls Ogden'Club, which is made up of colored starters, elevator men and Negro program. The chorus was grouped in a semi-circle, about a picture of the sun, on the platform, Alexander Russelie, concert director, played the accompaniment for their guitardists, solos exhilarated by the music of a girl with a very sweet high voice was much featured. The program included the "Night of New Songs," humming, falsetto variations and complicated harmonies. WAS SOME SHOOTER Shreveport, La. . Feb. 26—Deputy Sheriff J. L. McBurrell of Pine Shuff, Lufkin, Texas, having in custody "cank" banks, 34 years old, said to be murdered in a murder case of murder. Aiding to the story told by the Pine Shuff deputy, Banks is bounded nearly 20 years by a murder committed nearly 20 years by a Negro woman, and in his cohort to escape after the shooting, he shot his brother in the arm when he caught him. Banks was about 15 years old then McBurrell said, but he made good until a few years later he was heard of in Mississippi when, it is alleged, he shot and killed a boy at Lampkin, La. where we are charged with having shot a man. San Francisco, Ca. Feb. 25—A property owner at a boy district has a heated debate at the meeting of the Labor Department, which pressed themselves as opposed to the colored workers being organized into unions while the company Two communications, one from the University of Oklahoma, and the second from local employees of the Pacific Coast Guard, united in Oakland, and the second from local employees of the Pacific Coast Guard, started the debate.

In South, Bognge Of Absence Of Baseball, Pritz Fighting And Other Special to the Afro-American Journal of the idea that cracker jokes of the South lynch Negroes to protect white womanhood, or because they are jealous of the progressive colored people, H. L. Menken, white, wrote in a letter to the magazine of the Smart Set Magazine with the novel theory that "lynching is popular in the South, because Southern people are more frilled, like lynching show, and because no other sort of show is provided by the backward culture of that region." According to Mr. Menken, the black people down there, or baseball on a large scale, or amusement places like Coney Island, or amateur athletic contests, or pies like those held here, cause a great decline in lynching. "Where there are horse races, orchestras, roof gardens, theatres, yellow journals, shoot the chutes and automate plants, a mob and an imputed barbarity can not be imagined." That there are no sports in the South is said to be due to the cracker preachers, who oppose prize fighting, horse racing, Sunbury football, and leaving the people nothing to do but sit around whitening sticks, and waiting for a black face to show itself. Such preachers, Mr. Mencken declares, even censor the public library, worst hole in the South, the article concludes, "Lynching can be stopped overnight by establishing a good brass band and having concerts every night." Newspaper Retracts Statement about Black Star Line operations. In speaking at a public meeting threatened to sue the Amsterdam News and the Chicago Defender each for $20,000 damages if they would give the Amsterdam News said he would give the Amsterdam News until Wednesday of last week to chew up their words or face the law. The Amsterdam News "showed us its words" by making the following statement in its last issue: "Several persons have been to us to ask the Black Star Steamship Corporation and the Universal Improvement Association and its president, Marcus Garvey, to have public statements made about the gentlemen. Knowingly, we have always refused publication, but the article which appeared on February 4, shipped thru before a threemonth investigation was made of it." "Now that we have made investigation, we retract the statements without reservation, and trust that our readers will not in any way prejudice the Amsterdam News Star Corporation and the Universal Improvement Association, nor the president, Marcus Garvey, because of what was published. We wish the Amsterdam News and the president every success." IF YOU ARE A REAL MARYLANDER SIGN THIS To the Maryland Legislature: I appeal to the members of the legislature to unmend the State bill I appeal further for equal salaries for all the teachers of the State doing the same work. We desire to ask why it is that colored people pay the same taxes and get poorer schools, and if it is not positional, that colored people playland to do something to wipe out the 23 per cent of illiteracy among colored people.

Senator Mutzertz, of Prince Georges County, who was invited to say a word asserted that it was not a matter of colored people having a certain percentage of the school funds, but that it was the duty of the Legislature to give the colored teachers equal salaries with white, and in general the very best possible pay.

It also took up the matter of teachers' galories and asked the Governor was there a possibility of $25,000 in order to bring colored teachers salaries up to the standard of whites. Mr. Ritchie replied that already two million dollars was in the budget for education, and no additional sum was needed, so the teachers should pay down some of the other items in the bill and put this amount in for colored teachers. The delegation took away with them his promise to take the responsibility up with the Committee personally. Members of the Senate and House complimented the delegation on their presentation of the facts in the case, and told them openly their friends.

The games to be played in Baltimore at the large Armory on May 16th will be the Big Five Association team played a double header at their wrymankee Soccer game in February. Through some misunderstanding two teams put in appearance and rather than the Yankees and the Society Bings of Washington, winning both games, they put in the Big Five and showed that the lay off was beneficial to the local point. The In the second game the Y quint defeated the much stronger 12-12. The passing to the Y team was working in good order and the team showed an remarkable improvement over his past performances. It was very good. By the score of the St. G. and Albion game the Baltimore team moved in the ranks of the New Yorkers and defeated over the Metropolitan City quint for one season.

HOWARD OUINTETE Hampton, N. February --The annual Washington Birthday game played by Howard and Hampton on Hampton's court, was won by Howard by a score of 25 to 24. The passing and shooting of the Howard team were good, but they especially recalls the latter to the other missing set-ups. At the Howard players showed marked ability to ease the bath. The Howard team early secured the lead and kept it throughout their height, and even some advantages over the Hampton aggregation. The three games provided throughout the entire game, although at times there was rough playing. The playing of Richardson and Tibbs for Howard, and that of McLaren and Freeman for Hampton were the features of the game. The line-up was as follows: Hampton's Mares and Freeman, forward, Brachy, center, Wright and Jones, guarders, substitutions, Gwi Saunders, Jeier, and Taxton. Howard-Tibbs and Richardson, forwards; Garner, center; Marshall and Wright, guards; substitution; Carter. Referee— Louis Northrup. Timekeeper— W. R. Brown. Seeror— E. F. Lovet. Timekeeper— 29 minutes. and Score— Howard, 25; Hampton, 24. Did you ever wonder why some have power to accomplish almost anything they undertake and others—yourself, maybe—failed in everything?
