Naming of An Alleged "Patronage Seller" Shakes Faith in the Coolidge Administration WHITE PERSONNEL AT HENRYTON Dr. Moton Calls Washington Tribune Telegram False MOTON'SFRIENDS FRENCH GENERAL LAUDS "HELL-FIGHTERS" SAY HE HASN'T Former Virginia Congress man Who Formulated This Policy Is Named President's Sec'y COUNTRY IS STARTLED First Coolidge Appointment, Man Who Voted Against Anti-Lynch Bill Washington, Aug. 16.—Colored people the country over received a shock yesterday when President Coolidge announced the appointment of C. Bascom Slemp of Virginia as his private secretary to take the place of George Christian, Harding's secretary, who has resigned. Chances of the Coolidge administration getting out of the way into the late President Harding got it, and doing something about the muddle at Tuskegee, the activities of the Ku Klux Klan, the lynchings, the peonage in the South, or the unjustifiable invasion of Hayt, immediately went glimmering. Old politicians who had expected some changes when the redheaded New England Federal guard entered the White House, shook their heads gravely, recalling that Coolidge said several days ago he intended carrying out Harding's policies. WHO SLEMP IS Campbell Bascom Slemp, aged 46, bachelor, former professor of Mathematics in Virginia Military Institute, lawyer and for 14 years congressman from the Ninth District, succeeding his father, is best known as the author of the Republican party's recent book, *The South by excluding colored voters and making the party lily-white.* To use his own words he, working under Harding, tried to reorganize the party to the point "where there would be no fear of its domination by Negroes." Last year the country was startled when a fellow Virginia member accused Slemp of selling patronage in his district, collecting in all some $750,000 in this charge as Slemp declined to run again and his district went Democratic. Like the Republicans of Tennessee and Oklahoma, Slemp voted against the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill, but it was passed in the House. Action of the president in appointing Slemp to the secretaryship, which he will assume cop to the South, and an indication that the President is after getting Southern votes in line to support him in the 1924 election. LINK JOHNSON CUSSES Henry Lincoln Johnson, National Committeeman from Georgia, just "ruessed" when he heard the news of the appointment. Sleepp and Phillips, of Georgia, are said to have advised Harding against the appointment of any colored people to Federal offices.

Admits To Afro-American That He Has Not Considered Colored Head By JOHN H. MURPHY Cincinnati, Ohio, August 14 (Special)—"The Tribune telegram declaring that I invited the white Tuskegee Committee to Washington for a conference with Director Hines is false." Dr. R. R. Moton declared today. The Tuskegee principal was halled here where he stopped off with a group of friends enroute to the sessions of the National Business League which begin in Hot Springs Arkansas tomorrow. Give me about a month" Dr. Moton said, "and everything will be settled satisfactorily." Washington, D. C. Aug. 16—Dr. Michael O. Demas, representing the National Medical Association and Shelton Davis, representing the N. A. A. C. P. told Director Hines today that they would urge the six colored physicians appointed by him yesterday to go to Tuskegee to refuse unless the order implies service under a Negro commanding officer. It was said at the bureau that: Dr. Moton favored the sending of the six doctors under the white commander. Washington, Aug. 18—Director F. T. Hines, U. S. Veterans' Bureau, admitted to the AFRO-AMERICAN order that he had considered no colored person for the superintendency of the colored veterans' hospital at Tuskegee. "This bureau has not received a civil service certificate on Dr. T. E. Jones," he said, "or any other colored man for the position of superintendent or surgeon-in-chief of the hospital at Tuskegee and we have not made a request upon the Civil Service Commission for a certificate covering this position." Tuskegee, Ala. Aug. 14—Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, has not fled the South out of fear of the Ku Klux Klan. This is the statement that comes from Dr. Moton's friends here who declare he is merely carrying out his usual summer program of taking a vacation on his farm at Capuchosie, Va. These friends admit that Dr. Moton has been in conference with the committee here including the K. K. Khan and his taking the position that he will be satisfied with a white superior officer to be temporarily in charge and that later the entire personnel will be colored. If Dr. Moton's regime at Tuskegee does not seem to be as smooth as that of the late Booker T. Washington, it is pointed out that there are reasons therefore Dr. Moton's friends here explain it in this way. 1. Dr. Booker T. Washington grew up with many of the natives here who called him by his first name. 2. Dr. Washington never owned an automobile. Dr. Moton uses a high-powered Cadillac presented him by the Business League which makes the natives mad every time it shakes dust in their eyes. 3. Ileut. Colonel Benjamin O. Davis in charge of the R. O. T. C. here, because of his important hearing and stance presence together with his military military is an innovator that has not entirely set well with the native whites. 4. Since Dr. Washington's death, colored business men who have set up stores near the school have made thousands of dollars while storekeepers in Tuskegee. THE FEDERAL ARMY SIX GOVERNORS EXPRESS VIEWS Heads of Southern States Have Diverse Views on the Leaving of Colored Workers 'THEY ARE GOING' ANYHOW Little Rock, Ark.. Aug. 16.—Letters received by Governor McRae here from governors in the Southern States on the question of Negro migration expressed diversified opinions. So many thousands of colored workers have left the State of Arkansas, that Governor McRae asked a number of chief executives in Southern States how they were dealing with the situation. Several of the results are as follows: FXODUS IN ALABAMA GOVERNOR W. W. BRANDON, of Alabama: "There is an exodus of Negroes from this State, but we have unorganized effort to prevent it." GOVERNOR JOHN M. PARKER of Louisiana: "We have an organization of planters throughout the parishes of Louisiana to see what steps can be taken to stop the migration." THEY ARE LEAVING MISSISSIPPI GOVERNOR LEE RUSSELL, of Mississippi: "My honest opinion is that the Negro should be left alone and let them go when they get ready. They are going anyhow the sooner the better. A few plots like Springfield and Washington are glad to admit that they will be glad to come back." GOVERNOR THOMAS MLEOED, South Carolina: "The exodus here has been due to the fact that farmers were unable to tide their tenants and laborers over the winter. ever they were care of, they have been little leaving the farm. No State-wide action is necessary." VIRGINIA OFFERS SOLUTION GOVERNOR E. LEE TRINKLE of Virginia: "An adequate State employment bureau would, I believe, be the best solution of the problem. There has been considerable exodus Northwest." GOVERNOR PAT N. NEFF, of Texas: "From March 1st to June 1st, employment agents shipped 32,000 persons from this to' other States. I believe only a few were colored." GOVERNOR C. A. HARDEN, Florida: "Movement from this to other States has not assumed very serious proportions." NO ALARM IN N. C. GOVERNOR CAMERON MORRISON North Carolina: "There is no need for this State to be alarmed. Certainly the stage has not been reached where State-wide action of any kind is necessary."

The short one ran past the change booth and crawled into a turnstile. "Hey! where's your money?" shouted Thomas. "Got no time to answer questions," yelled the man as he ran to the northern end of the platform and leaped to the tracks. The pursuer followed at his heels. The two crossed to the northbound rails as a Bronx express in charge of Motorman Edw. Schmidt, white approached.

They ordered the power shut off of the passengers, including several trembling women, piled out on the platform. Trains were stalled all along the line. The police rails with flashlights, but found no trace of men. At 7:55 the search was given up and traffic resumed. It is thought they ran to the street.

Following a quarrel in an adjoining house Dennis Cole, age 25, and Maylin Robinson, age 23, ran out into the street to settle their grievances with a pistol and a razor. Robinson held the razor and after slashing Cole, the latter drew a pistol and fired three shots. It was one of these bullets which struck little Ludie in the ankle as she lay sleeping in a carriage on the pavement in front of her home. The other two shots went wild.

Half dozen patrolmen arrived. They ordered the rails shut off. The passengers, including several embubbling women, piled out on the platform. Trains were stalled all along the line. The police swept the rails with flashlights, but found no trace of the men. At 7:55 the search was given up and trafficking continued as they ran to the next station and out to the street.

Monrovia, Liberia, Aug. 14.—President King, who was recently re-elected by a very large majority seems to be making good his pre-election pledge to secure honesty in all the departments of the Government. Two weeks ago nine arrests were made of postal employees, who were charged with riffing letters and plifting parcels. Their trials are now in progress.

He pointed out that nothing with four corners is round and contended that a literal belief in the Bible made it necessary to believe in a flat world. He gave this explanation of how persons are admitted to membership in the Church of God and Saints of Christ, the feet of the prospective member are washed, then he stands in front of the pulpit and is given a holy kiss by every member of the congregation. All this is strictly in accordance with the Bible. "Oh, yes, we have healing by faith in our church. That, too, is in the Bible. I was healed in lambage in that church. The Bible says, when you stick to send for the elders, so sent for one of them and he laid his hands on my aching back and told me according to my faith it would be with me. I was completely cured."

The murdered was in turn fatally injured by bullets Patrolman, Enoch Sons, Francis J. Quigley and burgge Donelly, fired into his body died soon after in the Columbus spital. Family trouble was the immediate use of the shooting.

When Mrs. Roberts, leading her five-year-old child, Norma, appeared at the head of the steps, Roberts advanced to trust her and demanded roughly: "What do you mean by bringing here?" "Norman," she replied, "I want no relationship with you." Roberts reopened a dive for his hip skirt.

Some were on foot, some on horses and there was a long line of automobiles. A number of floats were mounted on auto trucks. One of these illustrated conspicuously white supremacy by showing a supposed Negro and foreign in the background. bowing in submission to whites who were seated on a throne above them. The: Klanmen wore no masks but otherwise full regalia. A number of colored persons witnessed the demonstration. "Fellowship Forum" a pamphlet setting forth the principals of the Ku Klux Klan were distributed. --- POLICE TO RESCUE 10 cents elsewhere WHITE DOCTORS AND NURSES AT NEW COLORED T. B. HOSPITAL Cooks, Maids, Watchmen and Other Menials There To Serve Colored Patients May Be White But Hope To Change Program of Gov. Ritchie, Sen. Smith and Dennis As To Personnel Parallelling in every respect the Tuskegee Hospital situation came the decision of the State authorities this week to man the new colored hospital for consumptives at Henryton with a white personnel. The first wing of the hospital is already completed and will be opened on September 1st. More than $200,000 has been appropriated by the Logiglature and other buildings are to be added. The personnel of the hospital which includes an acting superintendent, staff and resident physicians, nurses, clerks, pharmacist, hospital attendants, laundrymen, watchmen, firemen, engineers, bakers, cooks, farmer, orderlies and malds, under the present policy will all be white. The Crownville hospital for the colored insane and the House of Reformation at Cheltenham were pointed out as State or State-aided institutions where all the employees are white and all the inmates are colored. The brutal killing of Wm H. Murray, a former school principal and a patient at Crownville, by a Polish guard, is said to have brought to public attention the fact that the State is not giving qualified Negroes an opportunity to do even mental service for their own people. COOKS AND MAIDS MAYBE It is not thought at the State Employment Commission that any colored nurses or doctors will be appointed at the New Henryton Hospital. But a reporter of the Argo was told that if he knew of any colored men or women who wished positions as cooks, maids, etc., to please send them to the commission. It is possible that a training school will be instituted for the training of colored nurses, but to place colored people at the institution now would make enlargement of the hospital necessary, according to the employment commission. DE. BILEY TALKS Efforts to reach either former Senator Smith or Mr. Dennis failed on Thursday morning. Dr. R. H. Riley, head of the State Department of Communicable Diseases, told the Arko-American that Dr. M. Seeger, assistant to Dr. M. Cullen, a charge of the State Department, White Consumptives at Sabilville, would be in charge of the colored hospital for consumptives. Dr. Riley, who has just returned from a tour of Southern Maryland, said that his understanding was that the personnel of the Honryton Hospital would be white. He decided that he had a number of prospective colored consumptives with their trunks packed and ready to enter the new hospital as soon as it is opened. SIMILAR TO TUSKEGEE The situation at Henryton, which promises an all-white personnel for colored patients in a colored hospital is declared to be exactly parallel to the situation at the Government Hospital for colored war veterans at Tuskegee. Ala., where native whites are clamoring for a white personnel. The only difference pointed out is that a committee of white Tuskegeeans told Director Hines last week they would be satisfied with a white superintendent and two assistants with his remainder of 100. The remainder of the personnel colored. Senator: Wm. Cabel Bruce in a recent interview, came out for a complete personnel at Tuskegee. He also took the same stand. ANTI-LYNCH PLAN OF SENATOR BRUCE WINS APPROVAL OF TIMES New York Newspaper Okeys Suggestion for Uniform State Anti-Lynch PROPOSITION IS SOUND Maryland Will Not Regret Having Selected Mr. Bruce, Says Times The interview with Senator Bruce concerning uniform State anti-lynching legislation in all Southern States, which appeared exclusively in the AFRO-AMERICAN two weeks ago was immediately approved by the New York Times, when it was called to its attention. The Times, which is the leading national Democratic organ, said in an editorial last week: "AN ANTI-LYNCHING SENATOR "The S-motor elect from Maryland, Mr. William Cabell Bruce, has given to a newspaper organ of the colored people in Baltimore, (Truz Amarax) a statement of his views regarding what should be done to bring to an end what he calls "the savage and abominable practice of lynching." Maryland has a large colored population, but in his campaign last fall Mr. Bruce made no especial appeal to Negro voters. Afraid that Negroes who had vowed for him would have any "responsible cause" to regret having done so, Nor will count to have cause to regroup when in office, he displays as much clemency and vigor in the maintenance of soqual principles as he presents defining of his position. "Mr. Bruce states that he will not move in the Senate for the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. He believes that this would undo constitutions, and, in addition, he is persuaded that if it were enacted and the attempt made to enforce it, the result would be to live in various States, so that in all probability it would do more harm than good. The true remedy, in Mr. Bruce's opinion, is action by the Senate, which would have leading men in the South, both white and colored, unite in demanding from the Legislatures to secure penalties upon all public persons involved in the administration of justice who should refuse or fail to protect any man or woman threatened by Mr. Bruce's decision be followed in Mr. Bruce's heavy money fine, for the benefit of the victim's family, upon the community in which she made the criminal proceeding, or reform of her criminal proceeding, by the firm use of the militia in putting down Lynching. In that Commonwealth, thus using enlightened and lawful methods, Lynching has become as rare as it is in most Northern States. No discussion of the Negro question and of lynching can fail to take note of the activities of the Ku Klux Klan, subject, too. Senator Bruce speaks subject, directness and force. He proclaims that whatever influence he may have will be thrown against the "prescriptive spirit" of the Klan. Consequently, the prescriptive powers may have patriotic motives, but that such societies "by the inevitable law of their very being become mere seminaries of bigotry and ruthless. No matter with what purpose the sign or what fair professions they may invade, in an obvious tyranny encountered in criminal outrages." By such frank and explicit utter takes Mr. Bruce confirms the good opinion of those who maintained last year that his election would be an election of the State of Maryland and a strong rebuke for the United States Senate. His ward the highly important matters which he has been discussing is both many and public-spirited. We hope that wide note of it will be taken. LAMMIN-LEVIN COMPANY It is very gratifying to note the many opportunities that are being given colored women by Baltimore business houses who are competent and capable of measuring up to the standard of sales ladies. Among the many who have given colored women an opportunity to make good in this particular field is the Hammin-Levin Co., one of the leading music houses in the South. This company consisted with the policy of other business houses in the city has selected Miss E. Johnson, one of the city's youngest progressive business women to work among the trade. From reports given out by the company we learn that Miss Johnson has measured up to standard of the high class salesman and by so doing she is paving the way for other young women in her race, who are anxious to become business women. The public should back Miss Johnson in her endeavor. It means greater opportunity for our progressive young women. Milk Fed Fish The loyal workers of the National Fair Council, in a certain city, offered a prize to the schoolboy who would be the most attractive oster selling forth the value of milk as a food. Little Sammy showed his teacher a picture of a boy with a bottle of milk on his hand and a bowl of goldfish in the bowl was pouring the milk into the bowl. "But, Sammy," the teacher said, "there is no lettering on this. What does he mean?" "Don't get the 'idea'," asked Sammy. "It means drink milk, you or fish."

CHURCHES DR. WATSON WAS A CHURCH SAVER A. M. E. Extension Secretary Came To Aid of Church- Rev. Dr Benjamin F. Watson who died in Washington two weeks ago was one of the best known men in the A. M. E. Church. He had been Secretary of Church Extension continuously since 1700, and many church buildings he had saved by rushing to them with money just as the auctioneer was about to sell. Probably the closest friend he had in this city was the late John H. Murphy, publishers of the AFBO-AMERICAN. It was "Ben" and "Johnnie" when they met. Both were veterans of the Civil War and delighted in swapping reminiscences.

BRUCE Women Pledge Themselves To Work for State Anti- Lynching Bill Backing up the plea of Senator William Cabell Bruce for uniform State anti-lynching bills, the Women's General Committee on Inter- tracial Cooperation met at Ashville, N. C., recently. This committee, which is headed by Mrs. T. W. Beckett, white, of North Carolina, passed the following resolutions: 1. That we deplore the failure of State Governments to handle this—the most conspicuous en- emy to justice and righteousness, and the most diagrant viola- tion of the Constitution of our forest nation. 2. That we definitely set ourselves to the task of creating such sentiment as is possible to us in each State of our territory to the end that not only sufficient laws shall be enacted to enable the trusted officers of the law to discharge their full duty, but to secure the enforcement of the laws now in existence. NEW YORK, JULY 4. A. Supreme Court judgment for $23 which obtained yesterday by Nathaniel Winston, who says he paid $4 to bind an agreement to manage Buddy Jackson, Harlem heavyweight, for five years. Winston says Jackson got $250 in a recent fight and is to get $500 as his share of the purse last night in his fight with Bill Pate at the Commemorative Office.

A. B. A number of his narrative were things that had happened to him or that he had witnessed. These were always amusing but bizarre pathos was noticeable here and there throughout the story. One personal experience which he and Walker had endured together was a disgraceful incident. It happened in the hospital medians were engaged to appear there in the early days, but when they got off the train, they were approached and questioned regarding their apparel, which struck the natives of the particular city as too good for them. They forced the men to disrobe, gave them some burkap sacking and drove them off. In telling this, Williams made it comic, but he also declared that it was his reason for never afterward booking southern time. Another incident happened when the doctor whom he called in some years ago, ordered him to Mt. Clemens and insisted that he take bicycle rides as exercise after he got there. On the way in the sleep, at a very early hour, the dusky porter warned him that he'd better 'gut out at bad aid' hide in de coach" as they were crossing the state line into Kansas! Again he suffered, after arriving at the health resort, at the hands of a local constable while recuperating on the prescribed bicycle. The Michigan sheriff ordered him off the wheel at the point o. a gun and thrusting his glistening badge forward with a poke of the thumb inquired; "where'd ye steal it at?" After telling such experiences, Williams would saddle sadly and say some little philosophical thing all his own on something which fitted the peculiar nature of his own. One phrase of his own was, "It's no disgrace to be colored, but it's so inconvenient." Williams allowed no little incident to escape him which seemed to promise "story" material. He always called stories which he told in detail, "lies." One day, while driving his car along a quiet street in Washington, he noticed and old colored street sweeper stealing up on a young hen that had decided to take a walk along the gutter toward a barn. The sweeper was without apparently watching the old man at all, and got out and pretended to look at his engine. From behind the raised hood he saw the stealthy chase of the fowl, which finally escaped the old man and left him mattering. "Doo. I nearly had a hen." Rainbow Again Dark After a five-weeks' attempt to engage a "comeback" the latest management to tackle the Rainbow has yielded up the ghost and the house is again dark. The house was being operated by a Washington man who it is alleged "got from under" last summer. A party which was playing there and the employees that without making any arrangement for the distribution of pay envelopes.

Call VErnesi 6010 Williams, Laughter Played In A Theatre In South WHITMAN SISTERS IN BIRMINGHAM WHITMAN SISTERS IN BIRMINGHAM Gallie de Gaston and 25 People in Musical Comedy By Billy Chambers Frolic Theater, Brimingham Aug. 6—Despite the past reputation of the show, and the heavy advance billing, the opening night did not indicate a heavy drawing ability, altho there has been an increase in patronage for later performances. The company includes Mabel, Bert and Alice Whitman, Little Maxie, Jr., Walter Johnson, Elsie Ferbele, Pearl Chapman, Sammy Jenkins, Dorothy Washington, Katie Dougass, Gil Lobert, Ernest Mitchard, Miles Washington, Gail Licklestone. The show is nothing out of the ordinary in the way of musical comedy. It is a vaudeville revue with plenty of singing, dancing, a comedy sketch and a dashy humour of girls. After a fast opening, "Sweet Indiana Home" was rendered by Mabel Whitman to a nice hand, but not what may be termed a legitimate encore, for the credit is due to the presentation of the kid. Maxie who is a marvel for his age (about four years) with plenty of nerve and talent; But he should not be taught suggestiveness. Alice Whitman is the best dancer we have seen here. She is neat and may be described as a clever lady with a clever pair of feet. "Tomorrow" was her song number. She took three encounters and a bow. She worked with a Gallie DeCaston told a law of his stories and got away with a recitation, "Remember Your Mother". This gentleman is an unusually good monologist with a repertoire of very clean material. A potentially clever gent who needs more rehearsals in accepting encores and the making of bows, put over a Blues number and the song "Nobody". The boy has good voice and some personality and offers great promise. The comedy sketch was a lively bit that was indeed funny. The comedians were Gallie DeCaston and Sammy Jenkins, while Mabel Whitman did the female lead. The show averaged 35% at this performance due to the inability of the music to comprehend the music which seems to have been inadequately cued. The audience did not approve of the quercuing with the musicians that was indulged by Mabel Whitman. In spite of these interruptions, however the show got over. —BILLY CHAMBERS DUNBAR "Tents of Allah" The initial attraction of the week at the Dunbar next Monday will be "The Tents of Allah" co-starring Monte Blime and Mary Alden. This drama is type that follows somewhat along the lines of "The Sheik" but is much more interesting and skillfully produced. Tuesday, the special feature will be "The Wife of a writing the famous Wm. S.

Has Every Woman Her Price? She was innocent and yet the evidence told the jealous husband that she had been bought with jewels and money. He thought that every woman had her price, but not his own wife! —A chance flirtation, the meeting of eyes and then the trouble began. —Here is the most famous story of love, intrigue and thrilling battle in all English literature. It has been made into the talked-of picture of the year! GAYETY "How Come" "How-Come" the most elaborately staged and costumed colored musical show in recent years with the exception of "Shuffle Along" opened for its first appearance in this city at the Gayette Theatre Monday evening to a crowded house. Eddie Hunter, who has been proclaimed as the logical heir to the blackface comedy mantle of the late Bert Williams, is the featured comedian. However, the show has been adapted by four comics in the cast chief among whom is Amon Davis, who ably assists in dispensing mirth. The show is comprised of two acts and 10 scenes, with the first scene set in Mobile, Al., and ends in Chicago. The theme which serves as the framework for the comedy dialogue and characterizations, has to do with the formation of the comedy troupe and the making away with the funds by the crooked secretary urged on by a scheming companion. Hunter in blackface portrays the role of the secretary and George Cooper that of the schemer. A number of other skirts are introduced during the progress of the show the most humorous of which is ostensibly a boobtuck parlor, but which in reality is a bootlegging joint. This sketcher thus the most delightful of the whole offering as the proprector Hunter demonstrated the funnaking talent that has linked his names with the immortal Bert. In fact, it is our opinion, had this sketch been made the basis of the plot, it would have been far more acceptable than the moth-eaten and aged chicken plot. Besides the action which deals with the plot, a number of specialties are offered and are superior to most of the same variety seen in testing vaudeville circuits. Those who show in this department were first, Alberta Hunter offered two "Blues" numbers in a manner that stamps her as the queen of "Blues" warblers. Next were Johnny, Nit buck and wing dancer, who "cleaned up" with some difficult and rhythmic foot tapping. Rastus Wilson in a fine acrobatic dance also stood out. Some of the best work by those who took part in the plot proper was done by Leroy Broomfield who is one of the most gifted juveniles we have seen for many a day. He demonstrated an unusual talent for acting in a "laughhouse" scene, danced exceptional cleverness and then showed well as a warbler in a number with Nina Hunter, the pretty and clever little soubrette. Alice Brown and Amon Davis in a skirt piece themselves delightful entertainer. Miss Brown further holding to his impression by re-creating sweet singing voice. Andrew Trible, in his famous blackface female impersonation role, Andrew Failchair as Dragon Long Tack, Nat Cash in two of his well known bullying characterizations one of which, as kept the jail, afforded Hunter interest to put over some side-splitting comedy, George Lane who as the masculine fashion plate of the show, remembered memories of the late Walker, Nana. Chester as chorus leader and Katherine Jarvis who contributed a clever Egyptian dance. The big feature is the initial attraction of the week at the Rosevelt next Monday will be "The Girl of the Golden West," a screen version of the stage play of the same title. This play was a starring vehicle for Blanche Eates, famous speaking stage star some twenty years ago, when actress was just coming into fame under the tutelage of the famous David Ealeson. The story ells of a girl who keeps a saloon and acts as a banker for the miners and cowboys who frequent the saloon. There is a notorious highwayman infestion gite territory, who is caught in the act of stealing. One night he comes to the saloon with the intent of laying his plans for a robbery, but falls in love with the girl instead. The sheriff, who is on his trail, discovers his identity and in a running gun battle wounds him. The girl takes him to her cabin, but the sheriff fires them and the girl escapes. The drama occurs when the girl and the sheriff play a game of cards with the road agent's life at stake. Slater and Quintard Miller's Revue Marcus Slater and Quintain Miller's Revue were held over as the stage attraction at the Regent this week and are again demonstrating the rapid-dire dance work that delighted large audiences last week. The chief funmaking this week is in the hands of Tom Delaney of the well known team of Delaney and Delaney. Delaney is an experienced laugh-getter and his ability in this line was approved by the Monday audiences. He won a big hand for his familiar "Vegetable Man" song. The show opens with a melange of song and dancing the first number being offered with members of the company singing in the shoes. The after-piece is a skirt dealing with a proficient woman巾凯 known as Frisco Kate who attempts to steal some pearls from a doctor's office. Good character bits are contributed in this skit by Marcus Slater as the doctor, Irene Parker as Frisco Kate, Homer Hubbard as the detective and Peggy Brown as the maid. The latter received a nice hand also for a song rendition. Other members of the company are Elizabeth Scott a Baltimore who heads the feminine contingent. Rollo Johnson who offered two song numbers in a pleasing voice. Frank Martin. Henry Mitchell who is also a Baltimore and former singer in local cabarets who is making his first appearance with the company this week. "Baby Lewis, Mabel Hackett and Blanche Hawkins, the latter also a newcomer with the company. The big, picture program, next week will comprise 'Gimme' a fine comedy drama with an all-star cast. Brian Chadwick, Glenn Glass, Eleanor Boardman and H. R. Walshall, which will be shown Monday and Tuesday. Three vaudeville acts comprise the stage attraction at the Star this week, namely, Ferguson and Ferguson, man and woman, Edmonia Henderson the "Blues" singer and Pyrexa Stewart "white" a little six-year-old singer and dancer. Ferguson and Ferguson are well known to the head theatrreges as among the talented duos in the business. They also constitute the entertainment and work to that end in a manner that always win them a big band. Edmonson Henderson, is also well known as one of the best of the moanful variety of singers and she met with a fine reception on Monday evening. Baby Stewart is one of those precious young singers who have a natural gift in singing and dancing but can find no other opportunity except behind the foot-Wrights. She too won a fine hand. Pictures complete the bill. The big special feature at the Carey next Monday will be "The Masters of Men," a thrilling drama dealing with incidents of the United States Navy at the outbreak of the Spanish-American war. The story briefly related, tales of a small town boy, brave and a two-tisted fighter, who is chaundaihed but escapes and joins the navy. The war breaks out, and he becomes a hero. One of the thrilling scores, most of which takes place in a reproduction of the buryat battle between the United States fleet and Admiral Cervera in the waters of Cuba, in which the latter lost his fleet. Landis, Earl Williams, who has returned to pictures after several years' absence and Alice Calhoun are the principals of the all-star cast. The comedy feature on this day will be "The Detective," starring Jimmy Aubrey. Tuesday, the special feature will be "A Dangerous Adventure," featuring Jack Sicherman and Grace Darmond.

N. B. L. Bv J. A. JACKSON The following report of the first year's activities of the National Association of Colored Fair Offices was submitted to the National Negro Business League, the sponsor of the new organization. The National Business League, the pioneer business organization of the race in America, has been responsible for the organizing of a number of business and professional races. Each race as it matured being permitted to go for itself in its particular field. Last year, the session in Norfolk sent the Fair people off with a going start, and the report given below shows that the officials of the Negro Fairs have improved their opportunity in a most acceptable manner. The report to Secretary Albion Holsby states the league states that fair officials will be unable to attend the League meetings this year on account of business. Of the sixty different Fairs owned and controlled by our people, fifty-one have given every indication of interest in the National Association of Colored Fairs. Thirty-five have had representation at either the preliminary meeting of the National Negro Business League or at the annual meeting of the National Association field at Norfolk, Va., February 22, 1923. Twelve have actually complied with the requirements of membership and paid for some. Others are waiting until their annual meetings following the Fair season of 1823. Light amusement parks, piers, and beaches were represented at the first annual meeting. These fairs, horse shows, parks, piers, and beaches are distributed through (11) states and the District of Columbia. Practical achievements thus so have been as follows: The opening of an executive office. The assurance of several lithograph companies of their interest and cooperation in the matter of printing advertising lithographs containing New faces of creditable race characterization; also the actual production of slides by the manufacturer with two or more purposes in the various motion picture houses. The widening of the field of opportunity for Negro performers and concessionaires, providing well-paid employment for more than fifty acts and business opportunity of a lively and more business men of the officials have obtained the assurance of Government exhibits, whenever practicable, for all pairs applying for same. A membership card and certificate has been issued that will enable performers to protect ALL against unfavorable showmen of other race. There are, now two carnival companies owned and controlled by members of the race that will play Negro fairs exclusively, which will keep about six thousand dollars per week within the race that has herefore gone to others. The successful operation of these carnivals has brought an organization of fair circuits by the National Association, which will keep them at work consecutively through the fair season. NEW 'SHUFFLE ALONG' NOW IN REHEARSAL Fy L A Jackson Stile and Blake who with John Schiebe and Al Mayer of the original business organization that plotted "Stille Along" into fame, have been rehearsals of the new edition of that production at the Fifteenth Regiment Armory in New York. The show is scheduled to take the road on Aug. 27. At the time this is written, no names of principals other than Sissie and Blake was obtainable. However it is supposed that Lottie Gee will be with them, and Theresa Brooks is said to have been contracted, as has the Four Harmony Kings. The show will be built around a group now working under Mr. Sissie's direction as a floor show at the Marque Garden in Atlantic City, New Jersey. GAINES PLAY'RS IN BAHAMAS Charles Gaines' Variety Players have been playing thru the Bahama Islands. The show carried fifteen people, all of whom will be returned to the United States as soon as the contracted tour has almost been completed, with a great success. The tour will be made of from two to four shillings, according to billing that has been sent to the Page. BALTO.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN S 10,000 SHRIN INDIANAPOLI Tumbling Acrobat An Feature Big Parade Line. Blake Is Re-e Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 16. Beginning Aug. 5th, with religious service and extending throughout the week with business sessions and a series of diversified entertainments, the Mystic Arabic Oasis of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine have concluded a week that has contributed much toward the understanding and harmony of the races. A sad note pervaded the ceremonies. It was punctuated in several ways. First, when a period of silence was made the first occasion of the pervading the decorations in the street, in the halls and the draped banners carried in the parade, all here testimony of the Nobles brief at the passing of President Warren G. Harding; the first business session, that of Tuesday afternoon was promptly adjourned after a message of condolence was sent to the bereaved family, and to the new President of the United States. Despite the sharing of the national grief, it was an assemblage that will long be remembered. More than five thousand members were in the city with as many more members of their respective families and admirers of the Order. In the different groups were a lot of show folios. The big parade on Wednesday disclosed many of the great musicians of the race. Dozens of patrols and clauses participated, each with its band. "The "life-way" with its Oasis between Indiana and West Streets was an electric light stroll that would have cheered the heart of any old veteran showman of the school now disappearing. On the "life-way", Egyptian, costumed daughters of the Nobles of the Nobles of Pessian Temple operated every known device for amusingly capturing realism from the visitors who had been provided with full pockets of it when they registered their entry on this Oasis. Harry W. Lewis, the Atlantic city decorator had the contract for the decorations, and with the funds added for the purpose accomplished a very satisfactory job.

Aug. 16—Henry Joyce, of Stokes County, was found hanging, his feet caught in the branches of a scrub oak, and his head completely immersed in a small creek. It was first thought that Joyce had drowned the victim of a mob, but investigation showed that he had been shot, and in falling his feet had caught in the brush suspending the body over the water, the head being submerged. The victim of a rifle bullet, fired by Willis Dick Sisk, a white gunman and bootlegger.

CANDIDATES SHY OF LEGISLATURE With Six Places To Be Filled, No One Has Yet Filed Papers WARD CONTESTS LOOM "Bob" Young Against Hall, Shorts Opposes Lawson Duffin There seems to be a positive aversion among the leading colored men of the Fourth Legislative District in standing as candidates for the Republican nomination for the House of Delegates. Six places are to be filled. White party leaders seem to be letting the matter drift along, failing to attenuate the colored vote in the November election. Nearly all of the colored men approached plead that they should spend ninety days away from their business or profession. ALLEN DECLINES Wilford of the 16th Ward, says he declined of certain conditions obtaining among white party leaders of his vicinity. One of these is the refused to address colored women voters as anything else than "Mary" or "Annie" and many times the addressing them as "Mary." "The day for that kind of thing is not," says Mr. Allen. C. Marcellus Dorssey says he has been approached, but has not do, diced as yet. "He will have to be a stronger demand for me to run than at present" is the way Dr. James A. White puts it. CONTESTS LOOM Contests over the Republican Committeemanships in the 14th and 17th Wards will take place, James C. Short having filed against Lawson Duffin in the first named ward and Robert J. Young against Chus, C. Hall in the 17th. Hall is so far without the 17th Chamber Club W. T. Greenwood is also being urged to run. Short is regarded as close to City Chairman Cameron, who is a part of the Broening-Marchant combine. Young is one of the best fighters in the party, as evidenced by his run for the councilmanic nomination. April is deputed to win again in the 14th, but he has the full endorsement of the 14th Word Club. I Harry C. Horner, white, is again out for the committee membership in the Fifth Ward, having fled Tuesdays to the street, regarded as a Horner man, entered the lists Monday as a candidate for delegate to the Republican State Convention, First District.

Stricker street, who was com- pelled by the interest of Rev. Jun- ius Gray to replace a rotten egg The grocer, who is of Jewish extrection, sold the rotten egg to a young woman living at 1021 N. Strike street. When she returned with it on a saucer he refused to exchange it and used harsh language. Dr. Gray, who was in the vicinity did the girl to go home and he would tell that the matter was stricken out. He went and found two policemen. Setting the young woman, they led he to go to the store again and demand a good egg. The police then and the minister followed her. The grocer again dammed. "Who is proprietor of this Professor Fu Learnn Deceit yell . The Negro in America is now a century removed from slavery. As a seef, since the landing at James town he had not been in touch with Anglo-Saxon culture but before Abi Lincoln the savior of his country with one stroke of his mighty pen set free the sons of Ham, they strove to meet with fortunate men. tollient as men with lettered souls. When that great document, the Declaration of Independence, was read, he started to climb freedom lofts heights. It was up to him to comprehend Anglo-Saxon institutions. It was up to him to read, mark, learn and to digest the meanings of this civilization. The rapidity of his grasp of the situation and the accuracy of his execution has been admirable. We have done well, but we all have to master many of the fine points of the civilization we learned to suppress our desires or emotions even momentarily. The Africa within us, whether good or bad, will at times make itself evident regardless of circumstances or conditions. So far we have not learned that arch attribute of the White world—deceit. When the soul of President Harding morning out in California, the look it's flight on the wings of white birds, he dressed himself in sack cloth and ashes and bemoaned the fate of the country so suddenly beavered and so irreparably damaged. For the time being it forgot about the World Court, the soldiers' bonus and light wines and beer. The President did no wrong. All was good. His bitterest enemies joined in with his best friends in extolling the "greatest President." It put off "pumming" the late Chief Executive until the crepe is removed from it. It got loose in the civil elections, public buildings and the court. With a number of our press it was different. Before the undertaker could get his bill receipted they "out in". The Hotel Tattler, a New York publication had the picture of the late President on the front page all bound around with a mourning border, while on the inside T. Thomas Fortune, the dean of Negro editors went on to turn the searchlight on writing's many shortcomings with an attention to detail. The best so far as we are concerned, The Chicago Defender brought us a cartoon entitled "a silver lining," which depicted a Colored American gazing at the sky which was in two sections. One part was a dark cloud and was marked "the death of Harding" and the other part was the silver lining, entitled "alvin Cooler with a mindlessness." Numerous other paper-mill-related things which to say the least were no more important, which goes to show we have not yet learned the art of deceit.

"You have got to treat everybody right, white and colored in this vicinity," said the officers, as he impaired to Dr. Gray to ask what disposition he wanted at the matter.

When Mr. McQuinn came back from the farce in Atlantic City known as the National Negro Republican convention, and announced he was through and would henceforth use his time practicing law, it seemed to have taken the stance out of all runners, that is at first porque. On second thought I believe what made us have so many refusals is the fact that the memory of the last election, when we were banked by the Republican machine, is still fresh in our memory. However, let us not give up. Be hopeful to the last. Possibly we may be to coax Mr. Davenport give us runners to carry the banner and if we can more just to carry out the old policy of "all of us or none of us." Tibbs Pleads Guilty Frank W.

J., Aug. 15—Charles Holman, white, promoter of various financial scheme and ardent woeer of women is in jail here because of alleged false pretenses in the negotiation of a loan of $150 from George Curry. Bail of $1,500 is demanded. Now comes Ursula L. Vincent, his white stenographer who adds a sensational aspect to White's brief career here by filing suit for $348.02, alleged to be due her for back salary and small loans. She also claims that White posed as a Spanish-American in hiring her but she has recently denied that his colleague has a wife, Mrs. Lyda White, and baby residing on Bellevue avenue. He had claimed to be single. It is also claimed that White not only "touched" his "stenog" but "worked" her "dad" also. He also appears to have been paying ardent attention to his stenographer. She claims that White bought things from local stores and had them charged to her. White was in the printing business here for a white, then launched out as a commercial photographer. Known in Baltimore White is well known in Baltimore, where he headed the C. Holman White Film Company. This was a subsidiary concern of the ill-fated Wingate Brown and Wingate Banking firm of that city. His connection with the bankers is said to have cost them nearly $15,000. He came into the limelight by his arrest on a white slavery charge, growing on one of the swamp formation of Miss Lydia Williams Raleigh to Norfolk. Following divorce proceedings from his first wife, said to be white, he married Miss Williams in Baltimore. The charge was then dropped.

PICK POCKETS GET WARNING IN CHURCH "Lay Off," Declares Dr. Ken nard, "Or I'll Have You Behind the Bars HEALING CONTINUED Both Races In Crowded Audience Sunday Seeking Relief With the Christ Institution crowded downstairs and in the galleries, Dr. George W. Kennard continued his healing by faith Sunday night. Following a five-minute sermon, Dr. Kennard walked down the aisle of the meeting house. Suddenly he turned to someone and pointing his finger at him, shouted, "Yes, you will get rid of that joint in your side." To another, he cried, "Your baby will walk. He is a cripple now but he will walk." Then he looked toward the rear of church and shouted, "There are two pickpockets in this house tonight, and as sure as you steal anything from any one here this evening, tomorrow morning before 9 o'clock I will have you behind the bars where your lik belongs." Walking to the front of the church Dr. Kennard looked ceilingward and said, "I hear a voice and it says, 'What shall I do about my trouble with my wife.' Then looking into the face of a man in the audience," he said. "I mean you. You go back to your wife. She is a good woman. Forget your trouble with her." Following these "tests," a candle was lighted on a table which held a number of bottles, small crystals, and incense burner and numerous other mystic articles and after the Doctor and his assistant had washed their hands and moistened their heads, each took three swallows of water from a glass, and proceeded to heal the sick, blind and crippled. People flocked to the altar with small children in their arms. White and colored alike who were blind, deaf, and palsied went forward for treatment. The doctor sat down in what appeared to lie a barber's chair, and his assistant made motions over his face with his hands, thus beginning the healing. A small child was brought forth who could not walk, and after bathing the child's head with a liquid smelling like Sloum's filiment, a few mystic motions were made and the child was turned over to an assistant, who proceeded to massage its legs, later holding it up by its feet, head downward. The child may walk back to all the aid. These "tests" will be continued every second and fourth Sunday in the mouth.

Giles Says Burial Ground Is Not Used As A Pasture LOT OWNERS TO BLAME Some Said Only To Visit Cemetery When They Bury Relatives It was reported to the AFRO-AMERICAN that the Laurel Cemetery was in a deplorable state, that the gates were left open at night and that cattle were allowed to roam at will over the graves, snorkeling down tombstones and devastating the lots. An Afro reporter was sent there to see if the statements were true and found the cemetery in a fairly good condition, excepting the Northern end, where weeds and brambles are overgrowing some of the loss. There be a stone was overturned and in a few instances the iron raffings surrounding the lots had either fallen down or had been torn down. Concerning cattle roaming through the cemetery John E. Giles, the superintendent said; "That statement is absolutely false. Occasionally a cow may stray in here but they do that even in the park over there and there is a policeman in the park to look after. A horse may stray into any place. But we give them as soon as we find them here. We have quite a little trouble keeping the fence in repair and if a few boards are knocked off anything may wander in here. "The gates are closed about 5 o'clock every day and we try to take the best care of the place. Concerning those places that are run over by people who then them do not have them looked after. When we get time we do our best to clean them up a little but the only time some of these people see the lots they own is when they bury a relative. for a very shall sun' these overrun lots could be so large that Giles keep small force of men working around the cemetery and of course the men must be paid for their labor. Therefore those owning lots in Laurel should have them looked after. The lots in the Southern end are very well kept and in an excellent condition.

It was Mrs. Francis Goinis who made the complaint that caused the arrest of Mr. Goinis on a charge of assaulting and striking her on aid, that she did not prove that if Mrs. she also that drew the fine of $1 and costs which her kind and obliging buddy paid. According to the testimony, the Goinses' life was one continuous honeymoon until "Choke the Motor" came along. Then trouble began. So when after lovingly kissing his wife goodbye Saturday morning, he returned late in the afternoon to find all of her belongings gone. He made and being upon it made cell on this "Choke the Motor," who lived at 1342 Arre i's avenue. Here sure enough he found Mrs. Goins, and it was here that the alleged assault took place. After hearing the evidence the magistrate dismissed Goins and fined Mrs. Goins $1 and costs for disturbing her. He sent her to a short conference at the cell door, he came back in and paid the fine and the pair walked out lovingly together. When James Lawrence, 205 Angle avenue, came in possession of two pints of moonshine whiskey, Saturday night, night experience told him that he better not tackle the job of drinking it without help. So he went out on the street to seek aid and had garnered in two ladies and was accosting a third when the police stopped the proceedings and brought Lawrence and his two pints in.

PICKENS New York, Aug. 16.—The "Nation" said yesterday: Fourteen States have Jim Crow car laws. Not one of them maintains "equal accommodations" for colored people, although the law generally calls for accommodations "equal in all points of service and convenience," so as to square with the Fifteenth Amendment. Nobody expects the railroads to go to the expense of duplicating their accommodations for the colored; non-voting, minority population. The result is that the colored traffic is usually attached to the general service with the least possible expense: a spacious room in one corner of the station, generous accommodation and otherwise equipped for: a compartment in one end of the white men's smoker for all the colored people—men, women, and children—to ride in; generally no wash basin and only one toilet for both sexes; with no privilege of taking meals in the diner or buying a berth in a sleeper. Colored passengers taking a journey of several days must either carry cold food enough to last or else buy the high-priced trash of the newsboy. A colored woman traveling three nights from El Paso, Texas, to Charleston, S. C., with a baby and small children, unpacked from the hotel and set up on straight-backed seats for the whole twin. A colored woman of Portland, Oregon, editor of a paper there, bright, intelligent, and attractive, respected by the best-known white and colored people of the State was visiting her parents in Texas, carrying her infant and a small child. Out of their third night's ride, in Texas, she was compelled to get up, dress herself and babies, and vacate her birth because some short-distance white passengers objected to her presence in the car. A colored person who was hurrying from Florida to undergo an operation by an expert in Chicago had to risk death by a twenty-four-hour ride in a dim Crow Street car, sometimes have to be carried on stretchers in the baggage car. In the last two months I have ridden many thousands of miles in comfortable Pullman reservations out from New York to the great Northwest, with many stops and side trips; then down from the City of Chicago to the City of the Angels, from the red apples of Spokane to the golden apples of the Southwestern Hesperides; and then on by the petrified forest, the great canyon, and through the ancient cliff-dwellings of man to Albuquerque, New Mexico. In Albuquerque I had bought a train to El Paso, Texas. El Paso is where the train would enter Texas, and both my tickets terminated there. "Well, you can't ride in this car after you get into Texas. You'll have to get out of this car in Texas, and I suppose you know that?" I said. "In a very gruff and loud voice, so that the whole car might heat him, while he and others stare and share upon me. His speech is absolutely unnecessary since my tickets call only for El Paso, but the object is to 'rub it in.' I answered with no word nor answer. that observation as I might bestow son idiotos who should spit at me by kick out their tongues as I passable by their cells of confinement. we in El Paso because of the misapparition of a telegram, my friends not meet the train and I had insulted them. I came down, "I was meanwhile showed to the "Negro" waiting-room a space of about twenty by twenty, away off in one corner of the station structure like a place of quarantine or a veritable hole in the wall. I had to traverse the entire length of the great main waiting-room in order to reach the door. This main waiting-room has all the conveniences, 'phone booths, ticket offices, and what not. And whom do you suppose I saw in this main waiting-room as I passed through? Not only the "white Do You Need Luck?

We invite you to call: 10 UCKY STAR people," but all the non-American "colored people," yellow Chinese, brown Japanese, and the many-colored Mexicans, some dirty with red handkerchiefs around beaches and baskets and bundles with fruits, vegetables, and live chickens. These Mexicans are the people whom the colored soldiers of the Twenty-fourth Infantry held off those white people some years ago. And if we should go to war with Japan the colored American, will again be expected to rush forth from that hole in the wall to the defenses of the city, all this without the slightest feeling of animosity toward any race, and absolutely without scorn of any human misfortune. ♥ am only stating the case plainly. And when I reached the little humilating hole assigned to "Negroes," I found there only one of these who defiled one of them conspicuously unkempt like some of the Mexicans in the main waiting-room. I stayed in El Paso two nights and three days. Its colored people are alert to the situation. By means of their automobiles they protected me against the "parasit" treatment of the electric street cars. They took me across the shallow Rio Grande into Mexico just a few hundred yards from Jim Crowism. And over there, bless you, who is an black people, we sat at the same table drink in the same bar, and eat in the same restaurant, while the dark and almost black Mexican stands around as the policeman and the law. Then I went to buy a ticket for San Antonio. I did not expect to buy a Puthman ticket, but I did expect to buy a day coach ticket on any train. But I found that colored passengers are allowed to go to San Antonio on but one train a day, the one that leaves at night, the one that leaves at midnight, the Puthmans, and colored folk are made to wait (twelve hours longer) for the train that carries a Jim Crow compartment. A colored man's mother may be dying in San Antonio, but he must wait. Any Mexican, however, whom the colored infantry fought on the border and did not happen to kill, can ride on any train. Any foreigner, or any foreign spy who happens to be lause in the land, can traced freely, but not the black Americans who fought, bled, and died in France. All the rest of the world, he be an unlettered Mexican peon, an unarmed American, or an representative of the unillizified "white trash" of the South, can get either train; but the Negro, he be graduate of Harvard or bishop of the church, can go only one daily. Now if the Negro can be limited to once a day while others ride on any train, the Negro can be limited to twice a day while others ride seven, or even to one day a month while others ride thirty. I took the train that leaves at night. It is a ride of about twenty-four hours. Through friends it had been arranged that I be given a berth, late at night after all the white people had gone to sleep and could not see me, and perhaps be called early before any of the whites were up. The money was accepted from my friends, even tips, but only the porter was sent to bring me a pillow into the Jim Crow car, and they still have the money.

And what did I find as I passed through the whole string of Pullman cars in the rear? All the races of the world, as usual, save the most loyal of all Americans. In the Jim Crow car there was but one toilet and wash-room, for use of colored women and men. And the Jim Crow car is not a car, mind you, but only the end of a car, part of the white men's smoker, separated from the white smokers only by a partition that rises part of the way from the floor toward the ceiling, so that all the sickening smoke can drift over all night and all day. And yet what he said as he swept out the Jim Crow end this morning? Nobody asked him, he volunteered as he swept "Well this is the cleanest floor I have to sweep every morning. Then white folks and Mexicans and things back yonder she demesns on the floors." When I reached the dining-car there was not another person there I was asked did I "want anything." I replied briefly, breakfast. Then there was conclusion and much conferring between the steward and several colored waiters at the other end of the car. The steward kept glancing at me meanwhile, as if endowing to "size me." Finally I was given a seat at the end of the car where the porters eat, Oatmeal, egg, and postum were placed behind a green cushion was drawn between the rest of the vienna dining-car. Remember, this did not all happen in some insane asylum, but in Texas. The check on which I was to order my food was a green checka: "porter's check," so that I should not need to be treated to such little formalities as an extra plate or a tray, nor my name down in the blank for "porter," but I was charged a passenger's fare. It all meant that I would not eat any more that day, although I was not to reach San Antonio till eight or nine at night. One must be an idiot not to comprehend the meaning and the aim of such thing as a fair and just Jim Crow system with "social accommodations," and in very human nature there will never be. The inspiration of Jim Crow is a feeling of caste and a desire to keep in its place, that is, to degrade the unskilled group, for Jim Crow is no longer a car in public travel than there would be for a Jim Crow car path in the public streets.

Aff Correspondent Gets Past Six Secretaries To Talk With Mayor Hylan New Yorkers, He Finds, Put Race Interest Ahead of Party BY EDGAR G. BROWN New York City, Aug. 16.—The new citizens and voters of New York city have demonstrated to a water degree than those of any American city the power and sureance of their suffrage when surely exercised. The taxpays of little old New York are not chattel of the Republican leaders. When Honorable Ferdinand Q. graduated from Harvard and winning debate after debate against the country, intrinsic and胶amental advantages of the state or Democratic party over a selfish money interests and the primitives of the country, Harlan, and sided the then prevalent idea of the Republican party was the state, all else the sea, young Morrison started out to educate his people, constantly repent. "What is use" and "it can't be done," a new lease on life and catch on vision of that same so-called use, today as he enters his private office in the City Hall of Newark, the largest municipal city in the world, and sits down with other commissioners to pass the positions of over 20,000 city Frost Commissioner Ferdinand Morton's office the writer was over to the office of Mayor of Texas to see more people than live in the state of Texas and gained immediate audience with a man he duties are possibly more than ten times the President of the States. The Mayor of New York has six secretaries to attend to the many people having business which they ask he should approve, and if a think it easy, it easy time at Brooklyn offices usually about the best one who is to enjoy a pleasant chat the rather tactful, amiable a firm uniformed attendant in other office, who will finally be able to meet him at present I think. Mr. So it, so his special secretary, would be able to take care of him." But I was escorted into the state sanctum sanctorum passenger from New York and was to see Mayor M.

His Snakeship Killed By 1776 Musket Ball BY HOWARD YOUNG Monrovia, Liberia, July 29. While some workmen were engaged near the water-side at Monrovia College and the Industrial Training Institute, they were forming a large black snake was seen to emerge from a hole and make its way rapidly up the rocky slope. Instantly the key of "snake" were many many languages. For a moment all was confusion. Bishop W. Simpson Brooks of Baltimore, who was superintending some work nearby, hurried one of his men to the workshop for a carved snake gun, which he had only recently imported from England. Soon the native returned with the prized weapon, and headed by the snakeward, started out snakeward, being wholly unafraid since they were guided by the fishhop and safe within a few yards of his snakeward, where everybody awitted the shot "that would be heard around the world," or at least would put an end to the slimy monster before them. **Gun Not Loaded** "Snap!" went the right hand.

But there was no report. Instantly the leader of his now excited band made a hasty investigation of his not loaded. Consternation was seen on every face. But Bishop Brooks is noted for his wonderful resourcefulness and here is where it was fully exemplified. Dropping his gun without a moment's unnecessary delay, and with "full steam astern" he lit out for "higher ground," followed by a horde of undisciplined troops at a rate of speed not greatly below that of the Penny's "Broadway Limited."

He proteste Finot had proved his argum you were to read his book yo "Didn't you just say yo this book?" questioned the The Senator looked up as if he had not been expecting a response, but seemingly pleased with Dixon's acquiescence he continued as he turned the leaves: "Writers of this type don't know what they are talking about. They write from mere theory. If they had to live among 'niggers' they would sing an entirely different tune." Dixon felt that he ought not to let this remark go unchallenged. He protested courteously: "Yes, sir, M. Finot had proved his arguments admirably. I am sure if you were to read his book you would agree with him, too." "Didn't you just say you differed with the views in this book?" questioned the Senator sharply. "I fear you misunderstood me, sir." "I didn't you say you did not believe in the equality of the races?" "Yes, sir." "Then, why?" "Because as you said, sir, it is impossible." "Why! Why!" "Because there is but one race—the human race." The Senator did not respond. Despite his anger at the manner in which Ixion had received and responded to his question, he stopped to ponder the situation and had placed him. As he had confessed, he did not like educated Negroes, and had no intention of engaging in a controversy with one. His respect and his aversion for this porter had increased with a bound. Now he was weighing the respective merits of the two possible courses—silence and attention, this might not think he had silenced him, while to respond would be to engage in an argument, thus treating the Negro as an equal. After weighing the matter for some time he decided that of the two courses silence was the less compelling, with much condescension, his stiff voice and haughty manner a marked contrast to his jolity of a few minutes past, he demanded: "You say there is only one race. What do you call yourself?" "An American citizen," replied the other composely. "Perhaps you have never heard of the word 'bigger?'" "Couldn't help it sir," came the reply in the same quiet voice, "do you believe the bigger is the equal of the Anglo-Saxon race?" "I have read many books on anthropology, sir, but I have not seen mention of either a 'bigger' race or an Anglo-Saxon one." "Well, do you believe your race, the black race—is equal to the Caucasian?" Dixon stopped to weigh the wisdom of his answering. What good would it do to talk with a man seemingly so rooted in his prejudices? Then a smile came to him. On a visit to the Bureau of Standards, he insisted that he (a hei) should the effect the pressure of a single tiger upon a supported bar of steel three inches thick.

Here was one of those who, above all others, ought to know the truth. This thought decided his course. He would answer to the point resolving at the same time to restrict any conversation that might ensue in a whole and that the human race as a whole and to steer clear of color question in the United States. He responded with soft courtesy: "I have found, sir, that any division of humanity according to physique can have but a merely nominal value, as differences in the physiques are caused by climatic and are caused by human beings by change by them. As you know, both Science and the Bible are agreed that all so-called races come from a single source. Scientists who have made a study of this question tell us that the Negro and the Yankee are both approaching the ideal human beings, the human beings becomes lighter in the temperate zone, while impugned humanity becomes brown in the tropics. One summer's exposure at a bathing beach is enough to make a life-saver darker than many Indians. The true nature of human beings is of the same color; men are white under the first layer. "Then it is possible by the blending of human varieties to produce human-like other varieties each one unequivized humanity as you know, enable of reproducing and continuing itself." "Again, anthropologists have never been able to classify human varieties. Huxley, as you know, named 2. Blumenbach 5, Burke 63, while others, desiring greater accuracy, have named hundreds. Since these classifications are so vague and changeable, it is evident, is it not, sir, that any division of humanity, whether by color of skin, hair or facial contour, to be other than purely nominal, must be one of mentality, and to classify humanity by intellect, would be, as you know, an impossible task. Nature, so far as we know, made only the individual. This idea has been ably expressed by Lamarck, who, in speaking of the human race, says 'classifications are artificial, for nature had created neither classes, nor orders, nor families, nor permanent species, but on \(x\) individuals." The Senator handed back the book to Dixon huffly. "But you have not answered my question yet," he insisted. "I asked, do you want black books in the intellectual standard of the Caucasus?" "Intellect, whether of civilized or sir, is elastic in quality. That is, primitive man, when transplanted to civilization not only becomes civilized, but sometimes excels some of POCOMOKE CITY, MD.

To be accurate we would have to appraise each individual separately. Any comparisons between the groups would be inspect. "But, reiterated the other, surcastically, "you have not answered my question. Do you believe the black man will ever attain the high intellectual standard of the Caucasian? "For the most authoritative answer," responded Dixon in the calm manner of the disciplined thinker, "we must look to modern science. If you don't mind, sir, I will give you some quotations from scientifics of the distinguished authority, all of your own race. Dixon drew out his notebook. "Bah," said the other savagely, "opinions! Mere opinions! I asked you what you think and you are telling me what someone else says, but that to know is, what do you think?" "Each of us" replied Dixon, evenly, "however learned, however independent, is compelled to seek the opinion of someone else on some particular subject at some time.

He opinion and society stood the findings of a routine body of experts when, after a careful weighing of the question of superiority and inferiority, he said (here Dixon read from the notebook): "We are then under the necessity of concluding that an impartial investigator would be inclined to look upon the various important peoples of the world as, to all intents and purposes, essentially equal in intellect, enterprise, morality and productivity. Dixon found another passage and said: "Finit, whose findings ought to be regarded as more valuable than the expressions of those who base their arguments on sentiment or Hebrew mythology, says, 'All peoples may attain this distant frontier which is beyond the reach of man.' He also says, 'The conclusion, therefore, forces itself upon that there are no inferior and superior races, but only races and peoples living outside or within the influence of culture.'" "The appearance of civilization and its spread among certain cities people and within a certain geographical latitude is only the effect of circumstance."

Abolish the whole of our civilization and our minds will sink to the level of an African cannibal. It is not a difference of mentality in the race, but a difference of instruction." Dixon closed his notebook and said, "The so-called savage varieties of mankind are the equal of the civilized varieties in this: There is ent within them a wealth of development. Then the more developed peoples have the germ of decay more or less actively at work within them." The passenger had been waiting his turn with impatience. Now drawing up his overcoat over his pajama-clad knees, and raising his voice in indignation, apparently forgetting all previous qualifications of lowered racial pride, he flung at Dixon. "That's all nonsense. It is not true of the Negro for how he faces have, or have had, civilizations of their own, the black has had none. All he has ever accomplished has been when driven by the whites. Indigenous to a continent of the greatest natural resources, he has all these ages produced absolutely nothing. Geographical position has had absolutely nothing to do but Aztec civilization. Tell me has the Negro race ever produced a Julius Caesar, a Shakespeare, a Montezuma, a Buddha, a Conquistur? The Negro and all the Negroid races are inherently inferior. It is idolity to say the Negro is the equal of the Caucasian. God Almighty made black men a slave, and made black men a slave to curse on all the sons of Ham and the black man shall forever serve the white." And his face flushed with excitement.

It is said this discovery should add many years to lives of people in all parts of the world, and quickly restore many strength, youthful vigor, grace and beauty lost by neglect or abuse. Scientists agree that the secret of health and vigor lies in the internal glands and if these glands are stimulated and kept in normal activity, man might live forever and aliment such as tired, worn-out feeling, weakness, nervous debility, sallow complexion, loss of strength, temperature sensitivity, scrawny neck, restlessness at night, pains, headache, melancholy, despondency, etc., should disappear. The difficulty encountered by the medical world has been to find the right invigorator for the guards.

The young boy told me: How dare you to me without introduction, you are no gentleman. Here the caterpillar fell down her back. Help, take it off somebody. The man being the only somebody around said I couldn't think of it. Madam I haven't been introduced to the caterpillar. —Mildred Reid, 619 Brune street. Just Plain Stingy The stingiest person I ever knew was a woman. Altho she had a good sewing machine, she did her sewing by hand—to save threads. She used big, heavy thread to patch the men's worn clothes. By taking long sitter clothes she was able to pull the garments out and use it again after the garments were out. Some of her relatives sent her a large kitchen apron for a Christmas present. She cut it in two in the middle and made two aprons out of it, both of which had a bliss right down the front. She would often sit in the dark to save kerosene and would wear her coat on cold days to save fuel. At butchering time, there wasn't any part of the hog she could make something to eat. The worst of it was that family never got a taste until it was state and then it would last for ages. The children were starved for things to eat, the other children hud- and expressed their delight when their mother would go away from home and leave the father to do the cooking. I could fill a whole page, but this makes me feel like— A. TATTLE TALE Games For Younger Children GOING TO JERUSALEM The game starts with all of the players ready to march. The music begins and the class marches in serpentine form up one aisle and the next. For a large class there should be from one to six fewer seats than the number of players. For instance, one seat should be counted out in each row on each alternate row. The seat that is not in play may be turned up, if of that variety, or a book may be placed on the desk belonging to it. The music stops suddenly and every child tries to get a seat. The game may be played without music. The leader or teacher beats time and stops when players are to sit; or he may give a signal or a command to "sit." NOTE: This game develops alertness.

Schroeder street. MY BEST COMPLIMENT After my marriage I moved to another town. Three or four months after that one of my mother's messages I miss you so much—my messages the "sunshine of my life." Can you imagine a lover compliment coming from one's mother? MRS. J. G. SHEPARD Tested Beauty Hints I wish to tell the Afro's womankind how I care for my hair. The method has been thoroughly tested, and it has preyed out well. First and most important is the shampoo and I do mine every two weeks. One pinch it is freeway if the hair is inclined to be dry. There are many reliable shampoo preparations on the market. I advise a coacoust oil preparations. Remove the pins from the hair and brush well, thus separating every hair. Dip the hair into a basin that has been filled with a soft, absorbent oil is comfortable. Pour a little shampoo into the palm of the hand and massage in to the scalp with the fingers tips. Repeat until the entire scalp has been thoroughly cleaned. Squeeze suds from the hair and repeat the whole operation in a basin of clean water. Don't neglect the gentle massaging of the scalp as the hair sheds the oils. Then rinse the hair in at least four waters, gradually changing from hot to very cold. After rinsing for the last time, shake the hair and rub between heavy Turkish towels. Dry in open air and never touch with a brush until absolutely dry. Then dry brush the hair until soft and easily handled. Be sure and wash your comb and brush every week—offener if possible. Voice a Betrayer Watch your voice if you don't want to give away your age. That's the advice of Mrs. Clare Tree Major, who says she can tell any woman's age without seeing her, if she only hears her speak. It seems it isn't enough nowadays to tow up your hair keep your skin down message away the phone or keep the extra chins at bay. You can do all these things and still not believe your age, unless you get the co-operation of your vocal chords. "Listen to the voices about you," says Mrs. Major. "The youthful voice is light, with frequent inflections. It is buoyant and as springs as the garden you're as bright as the garden you're voice is tight and flat and heavy in quality. Often it is tired, rasping and harsh. Overwork, professionally or in the home, may bring this about. "The voice of a great-grandmother may be charming, mellow and sweet, and give the illusion of youth long after the calendar denies it, but how often it is thin and shrill with no range at all." An Ornamental Husband Both men and women are extravagant when they get the chance, but I am thinking of a man I know who let his wife run a restaurant. She did all the hard work, cooks, cleans, scrubbed, washed dishes, while friend hubby sold cigars to the men and gambled. When he won, and he did sometimes, he spent his money upon diamond rings for himself—not for wifey—and sported around in fine clothes, attended a club or two, smoked the choiceest or at least the pensive cigars. Finally he put a home she had earned—and ran away to California, leaving her with two small children. In this case the man was the extravagant one. Sounded Difficult Down in Texas the short cotton crop forced a large number of Negroes to the cities. One of them applied for a job at one of the large employment agencies. "There is a job at the Eagle Laundry," said the man behind the desk. "Want it." The man shifted from one to the other, uneasily. "Tell me how it is. boss," he said finally. "I sure does want a job mighty bad but de jacquard is I aln't never washed a eagle."—The Open Road. Home-Tested Recipes. What Baby Said The Afro pays $1 for best conti- bution to this column.

Address Cookery Editor, Afro-American. FRUIT COOKIES This cooky recipe is a favorite with my harvest men, so I pass it along. Use 2 cups of sugar: 1 cup of butter, 2 eggs, 2 cups chopped raisins, 2 tablespoons sour cream or milk, 2 teaspoons milk, 1 teaspoon and enough flour to a stiff dough. Drop small spoonfuls in a baking pan and bake in moderate oven. MRS. GEORGE MEAT FOR HOT WEATHER hot weather cunfwyfw mfwpwfw Meats that are quickly cooked are welcomed for hot weather. Select a slice of vegetable, such as potato, peppers, or potatoes for serving. Have some bread crumbs rolled fine, having first toasted the bread in the oven before rolling. Dip the meat in beaten egg, then in crumbs, and dry it brown in hot fat. Salt and panko will provide a little canned milk. It is just as good and binds the crumbs. JELLIED CUCUMBER SALAD A delicious salad may be made from 3 cups of cucumbers, cut in small cubes, 1 cup of white wine vinegar, 1 ounce of gelatin, 1 large bay leaf, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper corn, 2 blades mace, the gelatin in half a cup of cold water for half an hour. Put the bay leaf, pepper corn and mace into a saucepan, add 2 cups of oil and water, cove the pan and let strain it and measure the liquid, this summer for 10 minutes, then fill it with 1-1.2 cups, add sufficient water to make that amount. Turn in the gelatin, the vinegar. Put this away until stirring it until dissolved, then add cool, but not stiffened. Arrange the cubes of the cucumbers which should be free from seed, in small moulds and pour over them enough of the gelatin preparation to cove them well; then place the moulds in the refrigerator in crisp stiffen. Turn them in; in crisp loosened and serve with mayonnaise dressing, thinned with whipped cream. BLANCHE J.

WILLIAMS Invited to Contribute Heart Problems Answered by Annie Roney Lovesick—Tell the young man the truth and then wait until your parents give you permission to receive him. Broken-hearted Jiggs — Yes; write the girl a frank, mainly letter, and tell her how you feel about her. Undecided—Marry the man and keep his love. You will be much happier if you do. Forget all that has gone before and set about the building of a fine home. Good luck to you. Twi-light—The young man has a right to correspond with other friends if he is not engaged to you. Do not expect him to give up all his other friends because he calls upon you. If he takes you out often and treats you nicely, be do not let him see that you are jealous of the other girl, and perhaps he will stop trying to make you jealous. Do not wave to the young men. It is not nice. You will have to wait until you do find a mutual friend to introduce you. The way you are dignified improper. He would not have the same respect for you he would have if he met you under proper conditions. One Twin — You realize your mistake, don't you? Since you and your sister had planned to spend the evening together, you should not have accepted the invitation from the young man or else simply asked her to join you. At any rate you should have to tell the young man your sister was in "high horse." We are all inclined to lose respect for people who do not at all times uphold members of their own family. TOO KIND A STEPFATHER The best stepfather I ever knew was a neighbor. He married a woman about his own age—perhaps 30. She had a pretty little girl about 10 in whom the stepfather took uninjured infants, educating wishing well, supplying her with spending money and so on. If an argument arose between her and her mother, he usually took Edith's side. It was always this man who was referred to as being the model father of the country. I always liked this daughter. I gave love her, and we became engaged much to my mother's delight. Many preparations were being made for the wedding, and I had a home all prepared. The night before the wedding the daughter and stepther left together and have never been heard of since. PATIENCE ted Recipes.

Carr held the hard-hitting Darbyses to seven scattered knocks, while the locals staged a batting rampage,outing Submarine Lee from the Shipan as early as the third inning in which frame he had yielded two runs, four hits and walked three. Cockrell mounted the hill at this point but couldn't stop the clubbing of the Westporters. Poles and Wilson were the star stickers of the day. Poles crashing into the pellet or a perfect average, by countering with his club five times safely in as many trips up, and Wilson hitting four times in five trips, two being doubles. The best fielding feature of the first game was a great throw by fall in the fourth when he ran to the rightfield stands for G. Johnson's long fly and doubled Thomas it third base with a perfect throw to Poles. It was the best pig seen it the park this season. The second game was one of the veldretd affairs seen for some time, see back for the visitors in this session and succeeded in haring the locals with his sanddipping delivery, holding them to a quintet safe smacks. However, the locals went completely to pieces behind three pitchers letting balls that were only one and two-base hits all about the field for extra bases; Thomas and Warfield both completing the circuit on a hit inside the pitches. Warfield's was the result of an error by "Specs" Clarke at short he let the ball get away from him, three runs resulted from this error. Carter started on the hill for the ox but lasted only one third of the first inning when he was chased and Richardson sent in. The visitors earned four runs in this frame, Richardson lasted until a third of the fourth inning when he too was pumped to the showers. Mitchell took up the burden at this point and had he been given better support would have kept the score down. The locals were also the victims of a questionable decision byumps Cromwell that cost three runs. The visitors were flanked by a age of an excursion to give the Sox a large crowd of enthusiastic Philadelphia roots who took advantage look over in action against the barbites on their own grounds. They found little to cheer for in the opener but whoched it up to a tazzie in the second tilt.

Edgar Brown Is Forced to Limit to Beat 18 Year Old, Ayers Saitch National Tennis Champion Gets Revenge for Defeat Last Weck Gommez Puts Out Dr. Walker. D. C. Lad Is Junior Champion BY EDGAR G. BROWN National Tennis Champion New York, Aug. 16. I won New York Championship for second time defeating young Sich in a hard tussle where in the fourth set he had match point 6.1-1.6-7-5-6-4.5-6.3. Talley Holmes and Ted Thompson won in three straight against John Wilkerson and myself in the doubles finals. Mrs. Wade won the third leg on the women's singles Cup, defeating Miss Cornish in two straight sets with five tenis. She and E. Saich defeated Miss Cornish and F. Jones for the mixed doubles title two sets to one. In the finals of the Pennsylvania State Open Championship in Men's singles played here Wednesday after being assigned from Germany on Saturday on account of K. Saich, New York City champion, mercilessly swamped me in four sets with the same dazzling assortment of chops, cuts drives, smushes and beautifully anilized volleys that completely annihilated Talley Holmes last week. The score in sets being 6-2, 7-5, 6-1. As I overheard a fan in the gallery of the fourth set, when Saich's shots continued to find the very tape on every boundary of the court, "Brown was lucky to get one set, besides youth in the boy's favor." Loses Continuity. But it was not with that defeat, but in unbeatable tennis for the first time in my life I was unable to get started; there was not a time during the whole match that I either got going or made any of my usual passing shots. I was not off, Mr. Stich's game never permitted me to open up in the third set when a men's Association was against a sustained rally which my opponent and I drove the ball from me one baseline to the other for twenty-one (21) exchanges (the world's record I understand, is 25). I finally missed on a line ball to my forehand. This was a crucial point as denied the score to me, an opponent made an awful giving him a 42 lead at the ten minute rest, and so to one. In the fourth set I was complete by metachased as the young champ you coolly and precisely returned my best and led from the first mine, taking my service and match at love. Set score 6-1. One of my well-wisher's after the de- fect encouraged me by reminding me that Alonzo beat Tilden. So he holds. House Defeats Robb It has been a gala kick from the very beginning, when to the display the newest youngsters in the majors who showed up on the afternoon instead of 10 A.M. you can find that the good Dr. G. I. Hoage had unceremoniously defaulted them. Some of Westerners may take this as a hint to the wise when the head and tennis Association arrives in Chicago. From that moment they had better watch step, he would rather default, anybody than see Prohibition abolished and every player grant that is say, Sixteen-year-old F. Cook of Washington crowned himself with glory in winning the Juniors this year, and it was really a delightful surprise to see those youngsters stroking the ball. The driving game of Gommes of New York upset the old master, Walker, but Talley Holmes generalship was too much for him as Gommes only drives, the forehand, and behind the back, no man in the game winds your backhand offender than the former national champion. "Chick" F. Jones staged a coneck and beat my doubles partner the tall Washingtonian John Wilkerson. Thompson Wins Ted Thompson, the former junior champion pushed E. Salch three sets, only to lose before the super tennis and great work in the pinches by the New York City champion. The outstanding doubles match so far was the bidding for Thomson and Shih-Tsung-Thomson, the former finalist through the great coached smashing of Thompson. With seventy-seven entries one day of rain, the national day of mourning set aside by President Coolidge in honor of our President Harding, which days no tennis was played, the Tournament Committee, including Mr. Rainsford, Spooner, Dr. Davis, Mr. Rainsford, Mr. Burke, Dr. Hodge have clearly demonstrated New York's superior knowledge and facilities for handling a large entry and bringing the tournament to a successful close, notwithstanding the kind considered, endangered Baltimore and postponed finals, matches and doubles. Too high a tribute cannot be paid to the sportsmanship of all New York, as evidenced by officials and gallery. They did everything humanly possible to make every player happy and they areicularly thoughtful of the stranger within their gates. Rev. Martin scholar and author on Negro tennis and a lover of high class tennis, has done much in New York to uphold the traditions of this great game.

VOTERS SELECT HARRY WILLS OVER FIRPO 'Brown Panther"Leads Box ing Blade Poll With 2,600, Gibbons 2nd, with 1400, Firpo 3rd, with 1000 That pair of puffless locks, Dempsey and Kearns, who have well-paid the title of American tough" boys by reason of their Sylkock-like demands before they will condemn to draw on a glaze in defense of the heavyweight title, may yet turn out to be less shrewed in their latest bid for a "take off" than they thought they were. To wit: Although they had promised, according to Paddy Mullins, Wills' manager, that they would give Wills first the indication of the title (Gibbons, they turned down the promise and decided to accommodate Fipre, the Argentine movie first. VOTING FAVOR WILLS In view of the swathe that Fipre was cutting about that time, (among the setups) the "doughy" boys seemed to think that the "Wild Bull of the Pamphlet" would shift a scrutiny stream of the native partner of Harlem. But as the day of the scheduled mix-up between the chimp and the wild one draweth near, there comes ever-increasing evidence from the circle of fight fans and many of the leading sports writers, that somebody has been "done dirt" and that Wills is the party that has been dealt the dealing. To site an instance in proof, the DOMINIC 1912, a weekly pub-llection, has been running a voting contest for the just three weeks, in which a yearly or a six months' subcription entitles the subcriber to so many votes for their choice as the next boxer to meet the champions of the various classes. At the end of last week's poll, which was the third week, Harry Wills is leading the heavies as the next man in line for Dempsey with a total of 2500 votes. Instead of being the best second was the dummy Gibbons, whom Dempsey met recently at Shelly, occupied the runner-up position with 1400. SPORTS WRITERS SEE LIGHT Aside from this, which seems to us a logical barometer of the trend of lay opinion in the market, notice that seven of the leading sports clubs were inclined to sport up things for the alien in preference to the native son at first, have now shifted their salons somewhat to windward, and are saying things about the coming match that won't increase the rush at the box office, to say the least. They declare that personally he thinks 'Wills should have the first chance presumably shifting the responsibility for other choice to other shoulders, but 'we ha' our "doots" that Kearns had to stagnate him before he could take Firpo on business of Wills, when the doutch is divided. Firpo, is also declared to have favored the advent of another season of "dog days" eye he should be called to do his stuff with Dempsey. And the "Wild Bulls" showing against men he hears regularly, increases the attack among the sport's other one of those "things" where the spectator is seen leaving the ringside firmly grasping his nostrils between his thumb and forefinger. All of which taken together, seems to imply that the wise little "dough" boys may imagine themselves consider the amount of "bread" that they expected to pull from the oven when they decided to battle the "bull" before they battled the "panther."

The play was conducted by the U. S. L. A. and through the initiative of E. Kinkie Jones, head of the National Urban League, and his neighbor and one of the first educators of color in New York City, Gerald F. Norman, the received as a first recognition in these two men, who both live in Flushing, New York, entered the play at Kissimmee Park of the Flushing Queens Tournament. Mr. Jones went to the final singles, being eliminated by F. McLaughlin, former Colgate captain, while the team of Jones Norman played in Flushing. Flushing won the Tournament, won at Waukee, and Central Parks, but lost to the Manhattan team in the finals of the Metropolitan Borough, which included the above mentioned parks.

New York, Aug. 16—Harry Wilts has given up his training camp at North Adams, Mass., and is training in a local gymnastium. Wilts took off ten pounds in yesterday's work-out, weighing about 207 pounds when he finished. "I'll put it all back on tomorrow by eating and drinking heavily," he said. Sports Mirror Sports Mirror Uncle Ruben Foster, who is the head, body, tail and "innards" of the National Negro Baseball League, declares there won't be any "world series" between his league and the Eastern League if he knows anything about it. "Unc" Rube started right in throwing fits the very minute last spring, that he heard that a half dozen baseball club owners of the East had gotten together and formed a league for the purpose of giving eastern fans a better brand of baseball than they had fither been treated to. When he got over his first fits, he began "throwing mud". And while the Eastern owners were less subject to fits, they did know a thing or two about mud chalking, and the result was that for a time, readers of the sport pages of the leading weeklies had to wear gum boots to get through the mire. When it began to settle, the allegations which sprouted up were that Foster was trying to control the baseball situation of both the West and the East. That he had never spent any money in building a park, that he had exercised the powers of a czar in dealing with the men under him, both club managers and players, that he had never given colored pencils where they could finger any of the financial intake and above all had never used any colored umplies in his league. When the great mogul of the Western league did manage to stick his head thru the availance of Eastern mud, he was heard giving order to scour the country for dark-stimmed arbiteres (after he learned that the Eastern owners intended to use them.) In refusing to entertain the idea of a series between the two leagues, Foster calls the Eastern owners, outlaws, and accuses them of trying to curse his league by tampering with his players. In view of the attitude that Foster took at the outset, the Eastern owners, the Eastern owners who had left the Western league, dissatisfied with Foster's management. ******* The whole thing in a nutshell as we see it, is that Foster is trying to control colored baseball throughout the West and East. But the situation is too big, and other one man, and nobody knows it better than the fans. --- The most essential thing in sports is knowing the rules. It is a moratorious fact that some of our athletes and sports arbiters don't take as much time to inform themselves about the rules. I would like Dr. Jamette, the well-known former heuptheppe boxer, who was recently appointed an official boxing referee in New York, has been suspended for an instruction of the rules. Jeanette was suspended for officiating in the bout between Joe Lynch, bantam champion and Battling Reddy both white boxers, because Lynch is under suspension in New York State and referees of the State are forbidden to act where a suspended boxer is a participant. The bout was held in Jersey, and Jeanette claims the bout was extended outside New York State. Perhaps not, but this seems to be one of the essential things he should have found out from the first. Harrisburg, Pa., Aug. 16—The Harris- Giants have been playing as great baseball as any semipro teams in the State this season.

A few days ago in a block in one of the outstanding sections of this city a young woman died suddenly with an ailment that physicians said might have been relieved with a glass of water and a teaspoonful of soda.

The Republican party, the of the race have sailed, is slated to witness an exodus of its own. Before the next election, changes may take place, which will stave off the cloud-burst of revolt on the part of colored voters, but certainly open opposition to the Grand Old Party was never so outspoken and widespread as at present. Even in the South where it has been considered sacrilege to express the slightest spirit of opposition to the Republican party Negroes are forming Democratic clubs, and thinking in terms of political independence. It is of course too early to predict what effect the administration of President Coolidge will have on the future attitude of colored voters, but it is certain that by G. O. P. faces a crisis in so far as its Negro electorate all concerned. Commissioner Gaither's Saloon Ruling. Near-bear saloons in Baltimore are to receive more active supervision by the Police Department, according to a recent announcement from Commissioner Gaither's office. The attitude of the Police Department towards the sale of illicit whiskey since Attorney General Armstrong's ruling that State Police need not take an active part in dry enforcement has been one of the unfortunate factors in the control of petty crime in the city. Practically eight out of every ten cases of disorderly conduct coming into the magistrate courts originate in poison whiskey sold in the hundreds of near-beer saloons scattered throughout the city. It would hardly be a fair estimate of the intelligence and efficiency of the Police Department to say that they did not know of the existence of these illicit places and could not stamp them out if they tried. There is no doubt but that the new ruling, if carried out sincerely, will lessen petty crime and save our group thousands of dollars each day. Look Out For The Sharks!

TAYLOR 1100 McCulloch street This Reader Complains Against High Rents: Workingmen Pay More Than President Coolidge A Year Ago When President Coolidge was Governor of Massachusetts four years ago the real estate agent collected twenty eight dollars a month for the large house that he rented. Houses for colored people in Baltimore in small streets like Shield Alley, Wilmer Alley rent for twenty and twenty-five dollars a month, on larger streets like Lafayette avenue, Dernal Hill Ave., sixty and eighty dollars a month. Colored people are in the hands of the (Jew and Colored) real estate agent. If one falls to grab you the other will. In order to pay the high rents, honest homes are renting spare rooms with the understanding "my lady friends will have to come to" room. Honest homes, high rents, and Lord, small salary of husband with children. Ye Goils the rent, ask no questions the spare room is your den and with privileges. The great Afro-American can send a reporter down town and he will find out that ninety-five percent of the colored married men that have steady employment is paying one half to two-thirds of their weekly salary for rent.

ASITPON SMITH 1409 Shields A1 Tells Why He Does Not Give Up His Seat In A Crowded Car To White Women three appeared in one of the local newspapers this week an attack on men who would not give up their seats. The writer wrote that he stood on a certain corner and watched a number of people—among whom were several women—who were waiting for the scar. When the car came it was well filled and it was necessary for some persons to stand. The men kept their seats for which they were called curs and cattle. So prevalent is the spirit of race prejudice in Baltimore that is often useless for colored men to act in a white body, remaine toward a white body by giving her his seat. Often she will spurn his willingness to stand while she is seated. I have gone through this experience often, and also observed carefully how white women in the cars have often refused to sit in seats offered by colored men; especially if they had to sit beside another colored person in the car of previously resided to give their seats to not only women, but elderly men as well. But, when you offer your seat to a lady and she refuses to accept it or sits down and intentionally turns her back to your wife, relative or friend, whom you are escorting to or from some place, it is very embarrassing. So, they poorly clad, uneducated, even to declare a common noun, conjugate a verb or parse a simple sentence, sitting with their backs turned to our girls who are in high school taking Latin, Spanish, French, and many other subjects, and who can sit in various musical or public places of various girls and who can easily instruct them in various branches of the elementary studies. For this reason we sometimes see men sitting while ladies are standing. It is not because they are as a harsh man as a harsh woman, curses of male gender (when he should have written masculine gender) and cattle but they do not care to be insulted and embarrassed. Neither does he want to see another spurned because of the color of his skin. CONTRIBUTOR CAN HE HOLD IT DOWN What will Coolidge do are asking.

D., the Colossus at Rhodes was the Sixth Wonder. Made from scrapped metal from Macedonian battering ram, it was erected to celebrate the victory of Demetrius. The first artist engaged to fashion it worked on it for six years and having run out of money by that time, committed suicide as the easiest way out of his difficulties. The statue fell 56 years after it had finally been erected, and as the Oracle at Delphi found its replacement, it was allowed to lie on the ground.

In the fourth Liberty Loan Drive, they were assigned a quota of $500,000 and raised over $100,000 more than this amount.—What group was awarded the most honorable mike in regards to Negroes in the war of 1812? Commodore Perry spoke highly of the bravery and good conduct of the Negroes who were under his command. He said they seemed to be absolutely insensitive to danger. His fighters were a must-ley collection of soldiers. Nearly all had been inflicted with sickness.

The moment is always bound to come to each individual when he or she would give anything or avoid anything to add a few years to life. Generally at this time it is hard to live. The health is when you have it, when life is vibrant and young. The natural span of human life is still three score years and ten. Every human being born into the world under proper circumstances would live to this age if they were careful to insure their health by keeping the well known laws of nature. Only those die younger who in some way or some how either cut short their own existence or have it cut short by modes of life and, lack of care while young. Of the health while young and think of the things that will keep it for the day when you will want it most. In nine cases out of ten if you let it slip away it will be gone forever. The Shadow of Ford There is no doubt that now that the death of Harding complicates the 1924 presidential situation the possibility of Ford's candidacy for nomination at least rises to formidable proportions, especially in Democratic and independent circles have attempted to eliminate Ford by a pre-campaign maneuver to draw attention on the present day issues. Attitude on the penny he shadow. But the South and in labor ranks of Ford will fall across all presidential hopes. His candidacy either as a party or independent man would greatly effect the type of man who would have to oppose him. KELLY MILLER SAYS In the White House President and Race Prejudice Our Leader A.

The heart the sudden taking-of man. A Puritan In The White House Stephen Grover Cleveland, Thomas Woodrow Wilson and John Calvin Coolidge all dropped their first name when they came into high public route. Of the twenty-nine presidents only six have had a middle name, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt all convince us that length of name is no indication of strength of character or duration of fame. If a young American wishes to enhance his chances for the Presidency, he should either induce his parents to give him a single name in the first instance or drop the incumbence of a middle name as soon as he reaches the age of discretion. Mr. Coolidge must have had a promotion of the fitness of things, when he dropped the first and retained his middle Christian name. A president with the name of John Calvin in these degenerate days of material obsession and spiritual obtuseness would in died he at autumn. But the young Puritan did not change his nature when he changed his religion. It can truthfully be said that he is the first goodness to gracious Puritan that has ever occupied the White House. New England has given us the two Adamses and Franklin Pierce. But the Adamses were of the Brahmin caste which early broke loose from the Plymouth Rock creed and became Unitarians in religion leaving the great middle class tenaciousness of tradition to the adherents of the Congregational Church. They took with them Harvard College and its culture which they have dominated from that day. to this. New England has given many illustrations names to public life but the aristocratic Unitarians have all but monopolized the List. The Admuses, the Quinceys, the Hours, the Low-tits, the Lodges and the Cabots all fall in this category. But now we have a man from the hills with the received faith and hope of the common people fit section warranted to the highest station in our public life. of his section television. It was the briarian conscience linked with its Quaker prototype which created the briarian testimony which resulted in the overthrow of slavery. The Brabain caste joined in after the sentiment had been arrested and indeed, gave it intellectual direction and cultural expression, but underneath was the stubborn sturdy faith of the Congregational common folk of New England. Congratulations! If there is any living embodiment of the tradition of the folk soul of that land it- to be found in Calvin Coolidge, thirteenth president of the United States. No man has ever assumed the responsibilities of the office under greater difficulties. Whenever the vice-president succeeds to the headship of the government his task is a trying-one. He is not the choice of the people, who are sorrowly grieved and disappointed at the taking off of his chief, and look upon him at best as a regrettable substitute. Up to this time our vice-presidents who have filled out unexpired terms have had all but the full four years in which to impress their own plans and policies upon the acceptance of the people. Tyler, Johnson, Arthur and Roosevelt occupied almost the complete quadrennium. But Mr. Coolidge has barely twenty months ahead of him. The ensuing Congress has been elected, the officials to carry out the administrative policy have been appointed, all political events are focusing towards the choice of the successor. He can do little more than carry out and preside over the lines already laid down. It will only be in time that an extraordinary emergencies which may arise in crisis and impress his leadership upon the American people. In the midst of such a complex of conditions his conscience alone must be his guide. But we surely can trust to the guidance of that Puritan conscience which, under whatever strain of circumstances, cannot but lead us aright. his came as a clap out of a cloudless sky.

The news came as a clap out of a cloudless sky. The death of President Harding shocked the nation with a sadness that took its breath.

He eyes, and look beyond grace problem is local feeling on the issue of half hundred years. The press dispatches tell us that France has just filed notice to foreigners that any attempt to import race prejudice into France will lead to the deportation of those attempting it. On the face of the case the instance may seem small and insignificant. But underneath the surface there is a deep and far-reaching meaning. Is France destined to be the nation that is to unify the peoples of the earth? Such a nation must be free from race prejudice and bigamy of blood. Rome conquered the world and brought it under her imperial way. The conquered peoples forget the impulse to self-determination by reason of the overlordship of a complaisant alien dominion. This was accomplished by the racial indifference of the conquering nation. The subdued peoples were eligible to become Roman citizens in the full sense and meaning of the term. The race or color question as it operates today was unknown to the ancient world. The people reached and overreached by the conquering legions of Rome were essentially homochromous with the captors, wherever difference of race or color connected a wide apart difference of civilization and culture, it had no special bearing on the general scheme. The various races and colors are now being thrown together from every corner of the globe. Existing differences in civilization are looked upon as personal and circumstantial, which in time will be removed by education and contact. Nothing but a polychromous civilization with human wide tolerance will meet the ends of the ultimate, if not the immediate adjustment of the human race. England cannot hope to hold India or South Africa indefinitely while setting up an impassable barrier between citizens of the same government on the ground of race or color. The United States is hoping by some vain delusion to build up a democracy with race demarkation, but her wisest minds know full well that she is temporizing with an impossible hope. South America points out the way of concrete human brotherhood among diverse racial elements, but her general advancement in the scale of civilization does not make her method a persuasive example for the more advanced nations of the world. On the other hand, France, the cultural center of the modern world, does not seem to entertain the besetting sin of race prejudice. She treats her African troops on the basis of their civilization and ability to serve her national aims. The Mediterranean Sea seemed destined to become a French lake with equally genuine Frenchmen on both sides. If France can hold the balance true between the different breeds of men, it is easy to see that she will be able to command the man power of two thirds of the human race in the world conflict with the more infiant Nordics who now claim the dominion as a racial birthright. Is this the new deep-conscious feeling of the French mind? Why are England, and Germany, and America, so apprehensive of the use France is getting ready to make of African troops, and the genuine deep-seated loyalty and devotion that the French appeal awakens in them? England can secure no such response on part of her Indian reenforcement, which she must keep under momentary surveillance against sedition and rebellion. Not only France, but Italy, Spain, Russia, and the Bulkan state, constituting over half of the white race are color blind. Note deeply the significance of this distinction upon the future adjustment of the world. The American Negro wants to open his eyes, and look beyond his little limited horizon. Our American race problem is local. The white race is not of one mind, nor one feeling on the issue of race. Keep your eyes on France for the next half hundred years.
