But in the main it is expected that this large sum will be appropriated for what is understood as the higher education for white people. The only similar institution in the State for colored people is Morgan College. It asked Governor Hitchie for $6,000 this year, but the Governor recommends that only $3,000 be given to this institution. A number of interested citizens, including Rev. R. J. L. Diggs, called this matter to the attention of the Governor and urged him to establish a State University, Number 2, for colored people. Hitchcock Makes Comment To a representative of the ANFO-Ambition last week, Governor Ritchie declared "that there were no ways to secure facilities for higher education for colored people except through the Legislature. The question of an appropriation will not arise unless and until the Legislature passes the necessary laws. I will therefore have to refer you to the committee on education of the Sepate and House. "Please remember also that in the present budget I am allowing large appropriations in care for the colored tubercular and the colored insane.

ANTI-LYNCHING DEBATE HEARD BY BIG CROWDS ON YESTERDAY DISAPPOINTED TUESDAY Measure Failed To Come Up For Final Argument As Planned Galleries Jeer Crackers Washington, D. C., Jan. 25. —A wild scene of disorder swept over the House of Representatives during the closing hours of the general debate on the Anti-Lynching Bill today. There seemed a general understanding that colored people should crowd the Capitol for the effect it would make. In the crowd were James W. Jackson, Kelly Pierce, Jr., W. Dengaraj and many prominent colored people. From most to five p. m., they listened to the arguments and when Representative Sisson of Mississippi, advocated the teaching of colored men who put their hands on white women, Representative Cooper of Wisconsin charged him with favoring mob law. The big color guidance, numbering over seven hundred, forgot themselves and applauded loud and long. The effect was electrical. Democratic members of the House, the Senate, their feet and shook their fists at the galleries which applauded back in decision. Never before had a similar scene been enacted in the House.

The other came when Representative Volstead, of Minnesota, offered an amendment to the Dyer bill. This took the Southern Democrat on their feet. They protested made parliamentary inquiry into the new Volstead amendments which make the antynching bill effective whenever three or more persons combine to deprive a person of his life. The original bill defined a mob as five persons. The second amendment is a new clause giving the Federal District Courts power to bring members of mobs to trial whenever the State courts bill to do so within thirty days after the crime has been committed the gallery and yellow "star" attached. The new line is inflicted on the county which permits a yninghough to go to the family for the deceased.

(Special to the Afro.)—January 25.—Badly shaken up as the result of their flogging, the Columbus Jazz Sexette arrived here today from Miami en route North. The men refused to talk, give their names, or say anything of the occurrence until they can talk with safety. The sexette, under contract with one of the large white winter resort hotels at Miami, was lured to the outskirts of the town and brutally flogged by a mob of musked men. Autos were sent for them and they were told that they were wanted to play for a private party of leading white people. Last year the hotel employed white musicians, and this year was the first time that colored jazz artists were employed. This provoked the jealousy of the local whites, who were provoked at the authority of the little colored orchestra among the hotel guests.

HOME CO, Mueen ® Sere ape PAGE FOUR being shown in the first-class white theatres all over the country, and the management of the Roosevelt went to great expense, in securing it in order to live up to their policy of giving their patrons the best that it is still hot. The Sheikh is here, with some of the thousand and one legends of that ancient store-house of romance intrigue and revenge. Dealing as it does, with, harem life, dancing girls, bedouins and desert caravans, splendid opportunity was offered its producers for lavish scenic investiture; an opportunity, it is said they have embraced to the limit of the most beautifully manicured Valentino and beautiful Agnes. Ayers are the featured players in this beautiful production. THE ARGONNE Last Wednesday another new theatre was added to the rapidly growing number of houses in the city that cater exclusively to color patronage. Shaw Street South Baltimore threw open its doors to the public. This latest house is a very worthy addition from a constructive point of view equalling in this respect, the best that are now in operation. It is built substantially with a floor plan in its seating arrangement which accommodates some 750 persons. All the latest conveniences for the benefit of patrons have been installed and the latest operating devices for giving the best and most satisfactory exhibition by pictureure. The museum is owned by Wallace High (white) but with the exception of the camera operator, all the other employees are colored, namely, Moses Johnson, manager; Miss Lillian Mason, cashier, and an orchestra composed of Anthony Furrell, violinist; Edgar Gibson, piano; Jones Holmes, Frank Butler, traps "after His Own Heart" with the Mix in the stellar role and Charlie Chaplin in "Shoulder Arms" were the opening attractions. Next week, the opening attraction will be "After the Show," featuring Jack Holt and Lila Leo. This picture will be shown for two days. On Wednesday and Thursday, The Poolshade Age, with Doria Brennan, will be shown and on Friday and Saturday Thomas Meighan will appear in "A Prince There Was," the screen version of the stage play of the same title in which George Cohen starred a season or so age. DUNBAR CAREY The initial attraction at the Dunbar was "The Stampede" featuring Texas Guigan, the famous daredevil cowgirl, supported by an all-star cast headed by Francis Ford. This production was well-received by large audiences on Monday. On Tuesday "The Old Nest" a big steel Goldwin production was the big feature, a story of homely paths and domestic joys that also drew large audiences. This feature was called "The Day" The manager desired to call to the especial attention of Dunbar patrons the big feature which will be shown at this house on Friday. entitled "Out of the Depths" with beautiful Violet Mergereaux in the stellar role. The week at the Carey was begun with "The Woman God Changed." a fine picture showing how a woman of the underworld after shooting her lover escapes to an island of the South Seas, where she is eventually traced by a young detective. On their way back to the States, the ship is lost at sea and the detective, who during the attack attending the catastrophe is knocked unconscious, is rescued by the shore of a uninhabited island, where they spend many months before they are rescued. This picture drew large audiences on Monday. Larry Besmon, in "The Bellhop" was the main comedy feature. On Tuesday, the big feature was "The Three Musketeers" featuring Orrin Johnson, Louise Glaum and Dorothy Dalton. The "Bellhop" was continued on this day. Next Monday, the famous Hoot Hoon in his first S-screer, entitled *The Curse of the Curse* was an attraction. In this picture Gibson gets an opportunity to do some of that excellent first work that has made him the cinema hero of old and young alike. On this day a fine Jimmy Aubrey comedy will be shown, entitled "The Applicant." On the following Tuesday, "Dead or Alive," with Jack Hoxie in the stellar role, will be the principal attraction. Partly because of an opportunity to witness Jack Johnson's latest picture, "For His Mother's Sake," which will soon appear at this house. On next Monday the opening attraction will be "The Barbarian" with Monroe Salisbury and Jane Novak as the featured players. On next Tuesday the big special feature will be The Cabinet of Dr. Frankenstein, one of the greatest themes of mystery, thrills and sensational expositions ever shown on the screen. It holds its observers spell bound. CORRECTION The Afro of last week mistakenly reported the resignation of Mise Isabella Hall from School 112. THE ROYAL PALACE HOTEL Mr. and Mrs. L. C.

Hobart's stage play that established a record for return engagements in this city a few years ago, which was billed for the first three days, and "The Sheik," which was a huge success. "Experience" established a precedent at the Rosewood on Monday evening when patrons anxious to witness this fine production were pulled up outside the theatre, unable to get in.

Jones, Of Norfolk, And Jesse Binga Of Chi- cago, Stop Off On Business Trip Such An Institution, It Is Believed, Would Recreate Public Confidence Jesse Binga, president of the State Bank of Chicago and J. S. Jones of the Tidewater Bank and Trust Company of Norfolk, Va., arrived in the city this week. Mr. Binga, who formerly directed the private bank of the same name in Chicago, recently incorporated it as the Binga State Bank and reports a large increase in business. He is a Catholic, and among other things remarked to C. Marcellus Dorsey that there has been no change in the Catholic situation in Chicago for the past fifteen years. He also called upon Father Dorsey and Father Uncles, friends of long standing. Mr. J. S. Jones, who is stopping at the "Y" has organized eleven state banks in the past 5 years. He is visiting prominent business men in the city advocating the establishment of a state bank in Baltimore. To an AFRO reporter he said: "In the wake of the recent financial and commercial reverses of our group, Baltimore offers a wonderful opportunity and a most fertile and prolific field for organizing a State Bank, under direct State supervision and with sufficient capital and paid in surplus to absorb any prospective losses that might be incurred by errors of judgment on the part of its management. "An institution of this kind will prevent a further dissipation of the public faith and create immediately anew birth of confidence which is absolutely necessary and imperatively needed to stimulate our future commercial development. "Banks came into being with civilization and have grown with it. The Negro can no more hope to keep up with the forward owned, controlled and successfully march of progress without banks managed by his group, than he can without churches and school houses. "The ninety-four (94) state banks and trust companies in this country operated by Negroes, attest the fact that we can, must and will own, control and successfully manage banking institutions that 100% of our resources in dollars might be mobilized, organized, centralized and utilized for our needs and further advancement."

GOLDWYN PRESENTS Tom Moore IN Made in Heaven BY WILLIAM HURLBUT DIRECTED BY VICTOR SCHERTZINGER ```markdown ``` RAINBOW THEATRE Inquiring Reporter He asks five persons picked at random a question. Do you think the colored county school (teachers) should be underpaid half as much as the white teachers? THE ANSWER Mr. Frank Sorrell, teacher at 112 school.—The majority of them stand for it. Some of them are graduates from the finest schools in the country yet they put up with it and the State Supervisor brings that argument to us. Miss Estella Thomas, 1627 Riggs Ave.—If they would come together and demand their salary I feel sure they would get it. Mr. James Washington, 1014 East street, chauffer—I don't know anything about that work, so I wouldn't know anything about their money. Mr. William H. Proctor, 1334 Brudd Hill Ave., teacher at 115—I would rather not be quoted on that. Mrs. Lucille Green, 1769 Jefferson street. It seems as though it is their own fault. When I was teaching school, all the teachers stuck together and got nearly everything we want for. AFRO LETTER GOES TO MD. INST. DIRECTORS Head Of Art Institution Says Admission Of Colored Students Will Be Up To Them Michael Angelo Brown's letter in the forum of last week: AFRO, asking why the Maryland Institute was able to secure City and State appropriations and still exclude colored students was taken to Mr. A. Dement, white, head of the Maryland Institute this week by an AFRO reporter. After reading the letter, Mr. Dement said the Maryland Institute of Art is said to be a school controlled by private ownership and is in no way affiliated with the public schools of Maryland. "Colored students are not admitted for reasons unknown to me I will take this letter to the Board of Directors at the next meeting of February 15th and ask them to make a reply to the AFRO-AMERICAN." In Governor Hitchcock's budget recently presented to the Legislature proposal is made to appropriate $14 one of the State's taxes to the Maryland Institute. Appropriation last year was $14,000. Similar appropriation is made by the city and tuition is free to certain students named every year by the members of the Legislature and City Council.

A COLDWYN PICTURE Readers Anxious To Compete For Cash Prizes Offered By The Afro-American CLOSING DATE FEBRUARY 4 Contest Editor Urges Boys And Girls To Get Busy Now The AFRO-AMERICAN campaign to find out who can write the best essay of not more than 300 words on the subject, "Frederick Douglass" is on with a rush. Already letters have been received from many school boys and girls in the city, New York, Pennsylvania, and even as far South as Georgia. Everybody wants to win the cash prize of $3.00 offered to the one who writes the best composition, or the second prize of $2, or the third price of $1. In addition to the prizes offered the winner will be asked to send in their photograph to be printed along with their compositions in the AFRO. If the winner is a school girl or boy, a printed copy of his essay and photograph suitable for framing will be presented to his school to be hung in a place of honor. The only thing left is for girls and boys to get lazy and write their Douglass birthday essays. Many people now living remember Frederick Douglass, who was born in February in Tuckahoe, Md., as a slave, and became a great orator, editor, statesman, and advocate of woman's suffrage. One fine essay submitted tells of the time when the writer's father first saw Fred Douglass and heard him speak. Remember the contest closes on February 4th, and the compositions must not be longer than 300 words. THOMAS—In loving remembrance of my dear father.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE Edward Gray Lloyd, 3124 Barclay Street, who was convicted last week of assault with intent to rob Dr. Fowler of 1201 Druid Hill Avenue, on December 7 last, was sentenced to two years in the Penitentiary Tuesday by Judge Gorter of Criminal Court Part I. Sentence was suspended last week in order to give Lloyd's father and Dr. Fowler a chance to come to some agreement that the boy might be paroled. After some consideration an agreement was reached and the doctor asked Judge Gorter and States Attorney Leach to parole Lloyd but the Court decided that to do so would only encourage him and others and that a little punishment was the best thing for him. Alexander Keer who pleaded not guilty to a charge of having narcotic drugs was given 18 months in Atlanta State prison Tuesday by Judge Rose. One white man who pleaded guilty was given 3 months in the City Jail and another who pleaded not guilty was given 15 months in Atlanta.

"Nigger Heaven" Says The American The Baltimore American, white, Mr. Frank Munsey's daily morning newspaper in the city gave a show for its newsboys in the Playhouse list week, and seated its white newsboys in the balcony, on the first floor and in the boxes, and put all its colored newsies in the gallery. Speaking of the affair the American declared on Saturday: "THE LOWER FLOOR AND THE BALCONY WERE FILLED WITH WHITE BOYS, WHILE THE GALLERY, CROWDED WITH COLORED, LADS, WAS LITERALLY 'NIGGER HEAVEN.'" It has always been the prevaricator of a host to seat his guests as he pleased. The American abused this privilege and in addition offered its colored carriers insult through its news column. Judge Gorter Not In these columns last week we took exception to the statements of the Chief Judge of the Supreme Bench in sentencing Samuel Smith to death for attempted assault upon a white girl. The editorial erroneously referred to Judge Dobler as Chief Judge instead of Judge James P. Corter. Crimes Against Human Nature It was Judge Gorter of the local Supreme Bench, who said last week in contending Samuel Smith to the gallows for attempted rape and attempted murder: "You are guilty of the most serious of all crimes: THE OFFENSE AGAINST HUMAN NATURE." Last week, these columns pointed out that treason and murder both were more serious crimes than attempted rape, and asked the question what ends of justice can be served by imposing the death penalty upon a man obviously guilty, but also a man of previous good record and an ex-soldier. Downtown it is whispered around that the heavy sentence was meted out because Smith actually outraged the girl, but that this part of the crime was kept a secret in order to save her reputation, etc. In other circles, it is being said that both Smith and the girl are from New Jersey, and may have known each other before. None of these things were however before the court. Perhaps the second part of Judge Gorter's statement, bither-to-overlooked, explains. His declaration that Smith had committed a CRIME AGAINST HUMAN NATURE, I. e. had attempted to mix the blood of the two races sounds very much like President Harding's pronouncement of certain "fuscescapable differences" between the races, and his conclusion "Amalgamation there cannot be." The AFRO-AMERICAN does not here set itself the task of contradicting either Judge Corter or President Harding. What it does say, it believes pertinent, namely, that nature does not prohibit racial intermixture. If it did there would not be so MANY LIGHT COLORED PEOPLE IN THE NORTH, AND so MANY DARK WHITE PEOPLE IN THE SOUTH. Not very long ago a white street car conductor and a motorman were arrested and convicted of criminal assault upon a colored girl passenger. The two men refused to let her off at any street corner and carried her to the end of the line where the outrage was perpetrated. These men like Samuel Smith committed a serious offence against womanhood. They were not hanged. Fact is they got off with a jail sentence. Then there is the Harp case of last year when a white taxi-cab driver lured a colored girl in a delicate state, out on a lonely road and assaulted her. Harp drew several months in jail and was pardoned after serving less than half his term. Persons involved in the Harp case have never been brought to trial. Last year a white insurance collector, one Feldenheimer, was held on a serious charge preferred by a little colored girl. That case after rough sledding was concluded with the grand jury's indictment. So far it has not come to trial. Suppose Smith had been white and the Goucher College student colored, does any sane person suppose that he would have been condemned to hang. What this editorial is attempting to illustrate may be found in the words of the U. S. Census reports quoted last week: IN THE UNITED STATES AS A WHOLE, THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF PRISON SENTENCE FOR NEGROES IS MORE THAN THREE TIMES THAT FOR WHITES. President Harding has yielded to the South's entreaties and refused to appoint a colored man as Register of the Treasury. The President says he is busy now, and will have time to think about appointing colored men later. So, maybe he will have some leisure time around 1925. Eh, wot? --- "European powers hold up shipment of Arms to Abyssinia"—news paper headlines. England's explanation that the black Abyssinians cruelly enslave black Africans looks like the first move toward making that little country a British possession. Ira T. Bryant's distribute on bishops printed in another column is a sign that someone is in error—either he or the bishops. Doppard, Germany, has made a request for any kind of French troops even black ones for its garrison. Somebody please page the American Snob Society for Protesting Against French Troops in Germany. School Teacher And Charwoman In the Governor's budget as submitted to the State Legislature at Annapolis, the minimum salary for the rural colored school teacher is set at $40 a month or $320 a year. The same budget in its schedule of salaries and wages of the Legislative Department proposes to pay a "General Utility Man" in the Senate $450, pages in the House $450 and doorkeeper to the Speaker of the House $450, for the ninety days the Legislature is in session. IN OTHER WORDS, A "GENERAL UTILITY MAN" who performs service during ninety days of the year is worth more to the state than a school teacher who labor eight months of the year. The same budget proposes to pay to "charwomen" in the office of the Superintendent of Public Buildings $520 a year. No doubt these charwomen will earn every cent of their salaries, but has it come to pass in Maryland, that the state values the services of its Supervisor of Schools Albert S. Cook, who with the State Board of Education is responsible for the figures in the Governor's budget puts the minimum salary for white rural teachers at $650 a year, just a little more than double the salary of the colored teacher. Manifestly this is both unfair and un-American. Education is for citizenship, and the group of people with poorly paid teachers must of necessity receive inferior education and remain inferior citizens. The last United States Census figures on illiteracy in Maryland show that 5.6 per cent of native whites, 13.4 per cent of foreign born whites and 18.2 of Negroes are illiterate. Our only wish is that we could burn these figures into the consciences of the Board of Education and into the consciences of the State Legislature, so that they might realize that if Maryland citizenship is to be made what it ought to be, special attention must be paid to the people farthest down. Negroes and foreign born whites need the best teaching force not the worst. How can it be done? How else than by urging the Legislature to rate our colored rural school teachers on identically the same salary basis that it rates others. Equal salaries for equal work without regard to color or sex. In Congress Assembled The debate upon the Anti-Lynching Bill now up in the lower House of Congress has afforded Southern representatives an unusual opportunity to SPOUT. Representative Vaile, (rep) of Colorado referred on one occasion to the "contemptible pettiness" of the Southerner's arguments. He had in mind Texas JIM Buchanan's plea to the House not to pass the bill on the grounds that all of the representatives were the sons of white women. Then there was Arkansas Johnnie Tillman who had no arguments against the bill and so fell to abusing the colored people, whom he termed a RACE OF TIP TAKERS, and therefore destined never to be rulers. The PRIZE ARGUMENT was made by the same Johnnie Tillman who announced that he opposed the bill because it taxed the county in which a lynching occurred $10,000, which sum was to be turned over to the family of the mob's victim. The gentleman from the South declared that if the bill were passed, "Southern black mammies in every section would have their children lynched so as to claim the $10,000 damages. A dead nigger would be worth more than a live one. Aunt Manda would cash Rastus in. Alive he is a liability, dead he is a fortune." With such "contemptible peti-ness," and ignorant mouthings do the halls of Congress ring until the limit of the time set for the debate expires and the votes determine the nation's will. Value Of Colored Cops Proved The value of colored policemen, especially in working among the race, was brought out in the recent capture of Luther Boddy in Philadelphia for the murder of two white policemen in New York city. It is true that his captor, Amos M. Scott, is not a policeman, but as an elected city magistrate in Philadelphia he is an arm of the law. The tip he got from the liey, C. A. Tindley was another proof of the fact that law-abiding colored people are always ready to cooperate with law enforcement forces, provided an accused person is not persecuted because of race. In Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Atlantic City, Washington, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Chicago and other communities colored policemen have proved their value. In many cities, where any attempt to appoint a colored officer is frustrated, the despicable Negro "stool pigeon" is used in order to apprehend criminals. This type usually commands big political power, traffics in women and protects gambling and other forms of vice and at the same time grows to be well-to-do. Whenever the police want a colored criminal, he sends out his satellites to do what the police get credit for. This has been true in a number of cities. Baltimore, where there are no colored policemen, authority is being sought from the Legislature to increase the local force by 400. There is also a movement to have the city provide funds for the employment of men who will aid the police in their work. The interests of the whole city of Baltimore demand the appointment of colored policemen as a necessary link in the apprehension of criminals and the enforcement of the law. In colored neighborhoods they would be invaluable in maintaining law and order. A White Woman's View Of Social Equality (Lillie B. C. Wyman in X. Y. Nation). There are now many millions of persons in this hemisphere whose existence is due to "amalgamation." The fact that this mixture largely the result of illiteracy,orship proves, mainly, that the natural impulse to bringling is too strong to be repressed by social or legal prohibition. Law and custom can only guide and regulate it. At present, all the world over, the white man seeks the dark woman by demoralizing and brutal methods vastly more than the dark man seeks the white woman in any way. Moreover is well for any human grief, pel any other from its association, without regard to individual character, personal behavior, or mental equipment? It is time to face squarely this question of so-called world (and its presidents) know that there are white Americans who are determined to do what they can to unite socially all diverse racial elements in this country. We must apologize for our actions. We invite into our own whisperer and visit in their whisperer we find agreeable. We thereby pleasing ourselves and we believe that we are promoting the welfare of America. SOUTHERN M. E. SCHOOLS ARE OVERCROWDED Writer Pinds Colored Pupils More Enthusiastic to Learn Than Whites New York, N. Y. Jan. 22.—"Our teachers are unanimous in the judgment that colored people learn as readily as whites and have far more enthusiasm in their work. Rev J. W. Stalol, white, says his new book just issued entitled "Methodists Adventure in Negro Education." In the interests of the committee on conservation of the M.E. Church, Mr. Stalol made an extensive tour of schools and colleges in the South, including Morgan College and Princess Anne Academy. It is with the history of these that his book deals. It is not only the Methodist's schools, but also all schools in the South, crowded beyond one thousand. One school provides one thousand advance applications. Rev. Stalol suggests some have reservation lists for several years in advance and others maintain extended waiting lists. INCOME TAX IN NUTSHELL WHO?

THE LADY OF THE WINTER THE FORUM THE FORUM Letters for this column should be kept within reasonable length (Usually 200 words) He Enjoys Educational Features And Says Afro Grows Better With Each Issue. To the Editor: I am very glad to see that an "Educational Column," as suggested in my letter to *the "Afro-American"* some time ago, has been adapted. Of course I have noticed the wonderful consternity and the seemingly "brand New" policy of the editors before this and I have been promising to write you a letter of "appreciation." The "Educational Column" is a feature of distinctive value and is invaluable to the young people especially. I myself enjoy reading it. It was some weeks ago that the first installment of "History Day By Day" appeared in the Afro-Amrican. And at the time, acting upon my suggestion to you, I was just completing a series of articles ("Ten Thousand Things Worth Knowing") to be contributed in an effort to sustain my suggestion. However, in reading column in question, I am sure, young and old will find something to think about us well as vital points surrounding the history of their ancestors. The "Afro-American" grows better each issue. The policy of the paper is one to be admired. You have the "only paper," and the proper men are at the helm of the "Afro-American." E. LEWIS KELLY Damnora, N. Y Fight Against Locks Was On Account Of His Mis-behavior. Not On Account Of His Color. It appears that possibly two years ago, Benjamin Locks a school teacher was arrested and taken before the court on a charge of disorderly conduct. The officer who arrested him testified that he was a homo-sexualist, however, the technical charge was dismissed. The Locks was found guilty and fined something like twenty-five dollars. The Board of Education apparently knew nothing about this. Late last fall he was arrested again, but I do not believe any definite charge was brought against him and the case was dismissed before the court. In the fact that he had been locked up on two occasions and nothing had been done by the school board, a colored attorney Robt. Willis, wrote a letter to the Board of Education protesting against Locks retaining his position. With this the superintendent of the public schools dismissed the fellow, the Board, however, after the school system, but agreed to transfer him from teacher to clerk, with an increase in salary amounting to one hundred and eighty dollars per month, but think with a stimulation that July 1922 would be the best time to hire. They pointed out that their object in doing this was to reimburse him for the time he had lost from the beginning of the school term until January 1. The Free Press a while daily got hold of all the facts in the case and published them featuring them on the first page and in publication videos by against his retention in the schools. It might be said that they did not make their fight on the grounds of color. The situation became so tense that the Mayor has the vote over the public schools, did not stand by the Board and objected looks from holding the board had been shown. As it stands now he is finally out of the Detroit school system. Signed—DR. VAN. D. PIRR Detroit Mich. Jan. 18. Observer Says High School Pupils Might Be More Orderly On Their Way Home From School To the Editor: I want to ask if something you could print in your paper might not help our girls and boys of the Colored High School. It is absolutely disgraceful the way the majority stand on corners of minds of weather at coming out of school and disgrace the name of the high school, Colored and white, alike, look at them in disgust, an arm full of books and acting as though they had never been inside of a school room. I suppose they call themselves the popular pupils of the High School if so many and every one be delivered from popularity, all the days of our lives.

That Fourteenth Amendment After all, the old Fourteenth Amendment is good for something Mr. Taft used it to help a Bishop, Arizona/employer to beat a labor union. So the old thing has life in it when the Supreme Court wills. But think of it; those who enacted this amendment had no idea whatsoever that the Supreme Court in Bishop, Arizona to crush a waiter's union. They did have in mind the definite aim to help the Negroes of Georgia and Mississippi to enjoy suffrage and freedom. But now in the irony of politics and the technicalities of the court, the foe is altogether, and it is intended to a use never contemplate for its makers. It all leads me to reflect: 'There there is plenty of law to do any just thing if the officials WANT to do it.

Smiles and Chuckles By W. E. R. DO YOU REMEMBER When men used to get up in street gars and give their seat to a lady? When a fellow, who met a new girl in a dance and asked her for her address, couldn't find such a street and number in the city? When if you smiled at a girl on the street she would turn her head the other way? When parents used to ask children where they had been when they were absent without leave? When you could dine in a restaurant and come out feeling that the place still belonged to the proprietor. When a street car used to stop for passengers to get on and off?

Published by The Stratford Company, Boston, Mass. Price $2.99, postage 15 cents extra. Back in the days of controversy concerning industrial vessels college Education the independent published a somber petition "that was perfected in form, descriptive of the lance of the dusky towers at engine and any, asking what the end of their tool would bring. It concluded with this sexet: "Dear God, we dare not answer, we can see. Not many steps ahead, but this we know." know If it is our toilsome building is in vain Availing not to set our manhood free If curious hate roots on the seed we sow. The South will wear eternally a stain. Recognition of the beauty of the sonnet was at once expressed from many sources and Leslie Pinckney Hill took his place as an American poet. Since then it has been a disappointment to his admirers that economic determinism, as we love to call the power of the environment, has made his output very small. At last however, we have a volume of his poems, 68 in all, that is a source of satisfaction to those who have been impatiently waiting to hear more from this Negro poet. As would be expected from the author of "Tuskegee," some of the poems in the volume are taken from the arrangements of the Negro in America, among them Launching, A Jim Crow Restaurant; The Jim Crow Car; the same delightful titles: "Do lofty mood I mount the recking box." And travel through the land. So Terrage once Moved in old Home, so—wondrous philanthropy. Moore, Esop in old Greece, the dwarf and dune. Then I reflect how their immortal wit Makes the world-laugh with mockery of it." But the poet's sympathies are wider than his own race. "Who are my brothers?" he asks, "only those who wear my own complexion swart?" and answers: "Ah no, but all through whom there flows the blood-stream of a munity heart." And so we have a tribute to Good Mayer Mac Swiney who died for Ireland, to Chemenan, to Katerina Preshkorskaya and others. Perhaps most lovely in human touch is the sonnet. Mr Hill inclines to the sonnet form, or The Berglund Statue of Lincoln. There are poems, however, in the volume written without reference to race or national conflict, souls poems of the spirit. There are bits of description, as this of a Brazilian forest; Of little swarming insect parasites. Of Fiery creatures bent upon their prey. Of birds with all the colors God has made That nature could herself dream nothing more." And this from an Alpine scene: "Upon your ear shall sound the clear flute note Of dripping water, or the happier bird." Of slower streams that leap from holder walls. Singing of freedom from the tyrant ice." The first four lines of "Boss Swimming." "Little bad swimming in a running stream," recalls Sorello's wonderful picture at the Metropolitan Museum in New York. But the last four lines leave the realm of the artist and show the preacher who must point a moral to the picture that he paints. This touch of the preacher in so much that Mr. Hill writes will endure him to some and to others make his poetry appear over did- THINGS THAT NEVER HAPPEN antic. His fault, if fault it is, is an old-fashioned one and until recently has been found in nearly all our American poetry. Poe, whom America failed to appreciate, was free from it, but the most of the poets of the last century, Bryant, Emerson, Lowell, Longfellow, Whittier, were preachers, turning the moral, sometimes trifly, sometimes with magnificent conviction, to but more mislead they must. In "The Wings of Opinion," she is the name indicates, we hear in pleasant cadences that through the chastening of sorrow, through oppression, we shall mount upon wings to better and higher things.

James Wollon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Philadelphia, New York, who is in Washington continuing with Congressman Dyer on the Anti-Lynching Bill, R.

"They have shot their strongest holl and it proved to be not very strong. Their bill limiting tactics have failed. The House has listened to them and then voted them down. "Probably the opposition to the Iyer Bill will be come weaker and weaker as the debate proceeds. Appeals to petition by the Southern Democrats who allege that tape is the cause of lynching have been shown up as false on the floor of the House of Representatives by congressmen quoting statements prepared by the National Advisory Council to the Advancement of Colored People.

St. Louis Mo In one of the longest exhibitions of basketball seen on local courts, the game between representative teams the "Y" Big Five defeated the National News "Y" at the local location Friday night 12 to 4 to tie during the game. The game was drawn by either side and still could be to tie the exhibition of the good-sized players who had chosen to witness the game. With the lowest VV did not play many shots in the pitches as they are made in the pitches as they are pictures appear in the pitches in the ball that the visiting VV played. The team is composed of a heavy group of athle- ticians and an athlete, but they seem little interested in dodging in team- work. Every man on the team needed to play an individual one taking long shots of the pitch from all angles of the pitch, identically warning to poor foul and deblubing, the shot of play was aggravated by reason of the fact that their relationship was extremely poor. The score of the "Big Five" was half of the total factory, espe- cially this to in shooting, the other three they had golden holes but still. However, the shot of play showed up by the shot the team had the edge on the holes in good and of course was as the latter did Aided from the short-omnings ahead, they played the game on-site during the last half inbounded to develop into a football team and led by the Cajun brothers and Wade who had gone in for Merketh, both were put out of the game. The first half ended with the roars summing to 5 to 2 in favor of the hosts. Merketh exhibited the best form of any member of Cajun football and had a triple with Merketh both contributed a field goal and Shields two goal goals. Of the 179ers, Brown, Taylor and Robinson go a field goal each, and Landill a field goal. "EAGLE EYE" "EAGLE EYE" Not dead No! Not beat up No! Not sick! "kick!" No! Not caught yet! No!!!

The team has just returned from an extensive trip through the East, where they met the "Cream" of Basketball talent in that section. Unfortunately, however, the plucky O'Briens could not stand up under the strong Eastern clubs, and the majority of the games were lost. At Hampton, Wilberforce came into her own, and defeated the "residents" in a thrilling contest, which was featured by sensational shooting, high class blocking and excellent floor work, on the part of both teams. The treatment accorded the Wilberforce teams throughout the East, both off the court was exceptionally good. Pittsburg, Pa. Loendi 55 20 Orange, New Jersey Puritans 44 24 Atlantic City N. J.

IN THE WORLD OF SPORT Isn't it strange how one's memory tricks one at times? Very often, the name one has heard called or seen in print time and time again exudes one's recollection with that same persistence that that name It was just such a trick that the famous New York sports writer Robert Edgerton was made the victim of by his memory when he wrote the article published in last Sunday's Baltimore Evening News by which he sought to prove in the affirmative that modern athletes are better than the old timers were. Edgerton's Memory Fails In proving his case, Mr. Edgerton proceeded to give the old records principally in track events---and the names of those who made them, over against these, he set the new records and the names of those who had made them also--with one exception. Going back about a quarter of a century, and coming down to the present day Prynstein's Record Of course everyone who follows sports to any extent knows that Not Gordini a young college man who graduated from Harvard University has June made the new record; and no farther back than last July, when he jumped 25 feet and 2 inches thus breaking the old record that had not been broken up almost 65 names, some of them stretching back over this quarter century period. Mr. Elgengo could not to save his life, thinks of the new broad jumper's name so this is how he disposed of the incident: "My Muster Tristefel's 24 foot 7'1-4 inch running broad jump this year to better 25 feet." Edgern Quite An Old Man Mr. Edgern is an old newspaper man; we recall reading his sport effusions quite a period back ourselves; but here he not only allows a sport effusion to his memory, but is guilty of less palpiting defection: sloveness in his writing. Prinstein's 24 foot, 7-14 inches running broad jump has been raised this year to better than 25 feet. "So' by whom, Prinstein? He pamperises his former mark and discover that he had been cheated out of several inches? We have heard it said that Mr Edgren's in "in good standing" of that brotherhood of newspaper scribes who never say a good thing for a colored person i fit is possible to gay a bad one, and lacking the latter opportunity "don't say nothin' atall". On course we have no quarrel with Mr Edgren, or anybody else on that score; such is their privilege. Yet in Mr. Edgren's case we cannot help wondering, if his was really a lapse of memory or Oh, well we'll give him the benefit of his memory to trick him again, we repeat the name: EDWARD ORYMAL COUEDIN (COLORED) Out-Class More Experienced Opponents Whom They Nose Out 21 to 18 The High School basketball team struck its stride last Saturday night at the "Y", defeating the Athletic Arrows in a fast game, 21 to 18. High School showed remarkable efficiency in both its defensive work and in passing, in both of which departments they outclassed the double A's. The work they did in this line was evidenced in the fact that while they found little difficulty in negotiating plays, the team right up to basket the posts were held so tightly that they were forced to make most of their shots from the center. Friday night High School is scheduled to grapple with the St. Mary's five at St. Mary's Hall. In the preliminary game, the "Y" Pirates defeated the "Y" Ravens 47 to 9.

This victory came as sweet revenge, since the visitors won over Hampton last season, 28 to 27. The first half ended 11 to 19 in Hampton's favor, but at the beginning of the second half the Seaside team was sensational and shooting that took the Capital City boys off their feet. Before the timekeeper sounded his whistle Hampton had pulled up 29 points to Carlisle's 19. Both teams played a hard, clean game.

E. Meeting Told Argyle Ave. Institution Is Not Well Patronized Another matter of interest was brought to the attention of the ministers by the appearance of M. Kelly white), superintendent of the institute, and said that Eath No. 3, which is located on Argyle avenue, for the specific use of colored people of that section, is not being patronized, not only to the same extent that the white bath houses are patronized, but not sufficiently to warrant its continuation. The diversity between attendance as it exists between the patronage of the two races. He said that a sort of campaign of advertising had been conducted by distributing cards through the laundries and by other methods without any marked success, and that he had come before the Ministers' Meeting to see what steps might be taken by them in seeking to stir up interest. No definite method of procedure was taken by the ministers as a whole, but each minister was instructed to mention the three more fully with the matter and see what in their judgment seemed the best way to preserve this institution to the colored people of Baltimore. Rev. Alfred Young and Rev. Ernest Lyons were among the visitors. BOY PREACHER ILL Word has been received that Rev. Issue Johnson, boy preacher of the A. M. E. Zion Church, is seriously ill at his home, 1712 W. Second street, Chester, Pa. He will be compelled to cancel his tour of the South which included several engagements in Maryland. Rev. Johnson converted 1,365 persons in the past year. FEDERAL COUNCIL URGES CHURCHES TO CO-OPERATE Urges Colored And White To Meet Together In Inter-racial Conferences Nashville, Tenn., Jan. 19.—At the recent annual meeting of the Federal Council of American Churches, which convened in Chicago one of the most important questions raised was that of interracial relations. On the same platform were heard four leaders from the heart of the South, two white and two black. "We never knew, I said Rev. W. W. Alexander, John J. Eagan, of Atlanta, "How much racial prejudice and friction were due to lack of understanding of the Negro people, until we began to work with Bishop Robert E.

The two teams appeared evenly matched as to weight, but it only took a few minutes after the first whistle blew for experts to decide who the final victors would win. The outstanding features of the game were the stellar passing of the Blue and Gray aggregation whose work was of lightning-like speed. The score however, does not indicate the superiority the boys from Oysterville showed over the Hoosiers. "Google" Poles with his elusive dribbling ability to pass through the home team, and again in the forwards who seriously scored. Every man on the Blue and Gray team did stellar work, but Captain "Serappy" Brown shone most brightly, for although he was inferred, the final score crested him with 4 field goals, so the team won. Phil Harris the bold reliable with 2 field goals; Ed Butler (the little kid) as he has been nicknamed in the West with 3 field goals, and the fine work of Nooney Rice who was a tower of strength at guard for Athletians.

Nor did we ever realize before how much the Negro race has to contribute to the richness of our national life. "We never knew," replied Bishop Robert E. Jones, of New Orleans, the first African-American student in the Methodist Episcopal Church, and Bishop George C. Clement, of Louisville, of the African M. E. Zion Church, "that there were in the whole world any white man so fair, so just, so courageous, so devoted to true democracy, as we found certain white leaders to whom once we began to work with them." Said one white speaker: "The churches must unify undertake to combat race prejudice in America. They must see to it that race distinctions do not become race discriminations. A man must be judged by his character and his usefulness, not by his ability to be by the nation the real facts regarding the racial situation that misunderstanding and prejudice will largely disappear. BRYANT CRITICISES CHURCH BISHOPS Finds Great, Similarity Between Old Time Convict Overseer And Average Bishop Nashville, Tenn., Jan. 27.—"Did it ever occur to you what a great similarity there is between the old time convict overseer and the average bishop of the bishops of the A. M. E. Church in particular and all bishops in general by Ira T. Bryant, secretary of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union appeared in the Sunday School organ, the "Young Allante," and has created a sensation in the church. "The new crop of bishops," Mr. Bryant says, "is getting worse instead of better and selfishly refuse to the ministers in buying homes or caring for their families." Mr. Bryant also accuses the bishops of accepting sums in addition to their $3,500 salaries from conferences and other organizations. The editorial continues further. "Dr. B. F. Watson, when asked why he never made an effort to be a bishop in the church remarked that he entertaining as he does the desire to go to Heaven, he refused to take a chance with the bishopric. "The men who have made the church are rapidly passing away. Very little of that which amounts to three hurrahs! are going into the ministry. Our theological Such scathing criticisms from Mr. Bryant who is a general officer of the A. M. E. Church are sure to arouse a storm at the next General Session. He will doblest call forth a demand for retraction or resignation. PAGE NINE --- TH 0 jal: of his college mates. They 100k: Afro’s Serial. Love Story ca ‘on as if they could acaresly be Of Negro.

AD. 340-185-1954 THE AFRO-AMERICAN IMMORALITY AND WOMEN OF THE STAGE Intimacy Between Managers And Female Performers Is On Increase Says Player STAGE MUST BE CLEAN Performers Must Give Attention To Their Private Life And Public Conduct BY WILLAM E. READY Last week we discussed in these pages the information that had been given the writer, by a woman performer to the effect that some managers are demanding that colored performers indulge in "sniff". There were some other those who did the writer by this informant that we did not speak of at that time, chief among which—in our judgment—was that there is a growing intimacy between theatre managers—and a certain type of women players. This informant went on to say, that this type of player is next to impossible to depend on as a constant reason that, when looked for to "go on", she could invariably be located in seclusion with such managers. This sort of thing said this woman, who has had a long and varied experience in the show business, is on the increase and is giving colored women performers as a whole, a bad name. And moreover, is exerting a pernicious influence not to be pampered, but to be empowered girls who seek the stage as a means of livelihood, and who if given proper protection might develop into artists who would be a credit to the profession. Performers Must Bring Reform This information is not new; it has come to the ears of the writer on several occasions laterly, and of course—if the old adage is true, where there is so much money, the thing that something must be done, and the proper ones to begin the reform are those members comprising the better element of the profession who regard the stage as a A SWANOLA and BLACK SWAN Records will bring joy on Xmas and every day throughout the New Year Title Reg.

And while the "cleaning up" process apparently should come from the performers within, it does not follow that the public has no alternative in the matter: As a race the Negro is just mounting his waves of violence, negligence. If the term may be permitted; the achievements of the race in other lines of activity have been such as to challenge the admiration and respect of the world, and the Negro stage up to this time having not kept pace with some of the race's other achievements, is just beginning to attract attention, and it must get to its cleanest and clearest limit if it is to take its rightful place in the advancement of the race. This is essential; the age of Pur- uism when the stage was re- corded as the "Workshop of the vil" is past and today, the stage regarded not only in the light of a necessary recreation but as a valuable factor of education; and it cannot be allowed to die, or worse, degenerate into a cesspool of vice. Churches And Pulpit May Interfere If the performers and managers cannot keep it above reproach then the church and the pulpit will be forced to step in—a step they will not have to do when they do, the stage may be lost to the race; and performers forced back into the mental capacities at starvation—wages from which many of them escaped.

Chicago. Jan. 27. Is "Shimmy Dancing" indecent? In stripped English that left nothing to the imagination, three of Chicago's best known reformers and one of the city's best colored "shimmy shakers" battled for three hours in the morals court last Tuesday over the question of what constitutes improper entertainment. At the end of the day Judge Arnold Heap, who presided over the verbal battle, announced wearily that he was depressed. He will decide today who won. The three reformers were there to convince the judge that the entertainment which thrilled the patrons at the Entertainers' Cafe, a resort frequented by both colored and whites in the days before it was closed by the city was indecent and unimaginative as witnesses against two performers arrested in the cafe when it was called on November 19. The fourth witness was Julia Rector. Not as glib in her explanations as the reformers who testified that she was "a muscle dancer," she often had recourse to the quieter art of pantomine. More than once she brought a smile to the faces of even the reformers and the "persons who had business in the courtroom" with her muscular agressions. The shimmy indecentes" she repeated when she asked if she had gone thru theaked movements attributed to her by other witnesses—"Well, I should say not. Anyway, its not as I dance it." She illustrated her point by modestly shaking her shoulders. FUNERAL am the one proprietor of this and am MRS. ROBERT Funeral Directre Phone Wolf 6590 Lumme 1725 Ashland Avenue MRS. CHARLES B. T.

Before she had been placed on the stand Leslie Lewis, a chemist told of his persecution at the British Invasion by Assistant State's Attorney Frank Southrada. "When I went into the place," said Lewis, "I "saw Julia Rector dancing before a table where two men and two girls were sitting. Some one gave her a quarter and she danced, whirling until her skirts were at a level with her knees. More tips came, her body and her hair were leaning far back, and her dress "caroming well above her waist." Alen Jessie E: Binford, a government investigator, called a spade a spade. "I saw couples clinging together, their lips glued to each other and pressed together to meet and wrested heavily and forth to the strains of the jazz, she said. "At times the man chewed at the nee of his partner." She described "jazz as a caddy of barnyard sounds, the crowing of roosters, the crowing of sheep, the dogs, all coping together and served with the beating of tom toms by a colored orchestra.

There will be about 29 withdrawals from the school, however due to graduation, the schools are now enrolled, and they are virtually sitting all over each other while getting an education. The building at Pennsylvania Avenue and Dolphin Street is overcrowded, necessitating some classes being held in the basement. A portable, two story shop building and an annex on Pennsylvania Avenue are required to relieve some of the congestion. There has been no place used as an assembly hall by the pupils since the School Board terminated its contract with the trustees of Sharp Street Memorial Hall. That the Dolphin Theatre will be used for assembly purposes as soon as completed. It may be months before the school occupies the old white female House of Refuge property at Baker and Carey streets, recently bought by the city for a senior minor in the city. Old buildings will have to be re-modelled and probably additions built.
