Butler, who was convicted on circumstantial evidence, sat stoic like as the jurors, who filed into the court room at 10:30, gave their decision which carried with it a recommendation for imprisonment instead of capital punishment. Case Mysterious The killing of which Butler was convicted took place in the quitte village of Leonardtown on November 17. Joseph Ching, who was an outstanding and well-known white man of the town, was found in the sidewalk near his home with a crushed by some blunt instrument.

It was found that on the night preceding the tragedy he was seen to have visited the home of Mrs. Eda Thompson. It was the testimony of this woman, who was a believer of the State, that the case against Butler was made out. According to her testimony Monday, Butler had threatened the life of Ching while he was a visitor in the home.

WHITES ON HOT CHASE AFTER HALF MILLION Fight To Control Oil Lands Of William King A Real Oklahoma Scramble KING REACHED 21ST YEAR LAST WEEK Black Dispatch News Service Okmulgie, Okla., (B. D. N. S.)—Chasing a half million dollars has made many whites in this city and county forget all about Jim Crow and Segregation during the past few months. White folks have been sleeping in the same house with Negroes in order that the wrong white men did not get too close to Willie King, wealthy Okmulgie Negro who reached his majority last Monday. The chase is over, when the county court, Crittenden Smith, former guardian, was named trustee of the big estate. Dog Killed During Watch Deputy Sheriff Jim Winn was placed on guard of Willey shortly after a big bull dog, that was supposed to assist in the watching died from some unexplained cause. From that time on Willie's guardian saw a chance to get one black man in Okmulgee County, and it is a safe bet that if a mob had approached the King residence at 913 E. Third Identified person's would have been knocked into, a cocked hat. Wille Has Rare Judgment W. W. Woods, attorney for Clark, the trustee, gave out an interview today announcing that, Wille had rare business judgment, it is sup- sessed that Wood referred to Wille's signing to will enable Wood to continue to draw fat fees for giving advice about investing Wille's money in property, it being pointed out that if Wille has the rare business judgment to which Wood refers, he might just as well have gotten rid of Wood and Clark and managed his own estate, with the assistance of Negro attorneys in Okmulglee. Only $300 A Month To outsiders it would look a deal like Willie had already been kidnapped before he became old age for the reason that he was only allowed $300 per month by his guardian, while the annual income from his estate was from $50,000 to $80,000. Wood in his statement today intimated that L.S. fear of Willie for the past four months had been that he would be kidnapped, and it is reported that attorneys from all over Oklahoma sought audiences and that he had been taught that under no circumstances should he allow a Negro to act for him. Under today's declaration of trust he will be allowed by "de white folks" to build another home and meet with other black men meantime, for another five years, Clark and Wood will have full control; of the King estate. $370,000 Estate The estate at the present consists of approximately $370,000 in first mortgages, bearing 8 per cent interest and the King allotment in the 14-11 oil pool. There are 120 acres in the oil bearing properties of King and Bentley. The King has never produced oil although the lease sold several years ago for $3,000 King receives more than $20,000 annually from the royalty on his allotment. A legal fight occured sixteen ago when M. W. Alexander, then county judge appointed Crittenden Smith and Judge Wood is attorney for the guardian. At that time the estate consisted of something less than $200 in cash and 160 acres. "Doctor Freed" "Doctor Freed" Raleigh, N. C.—"Doctor" J. H.

CERTIFICATE OF BIRTH LEADS TO DIVORCE Husband Found Evidence Eleven Years After His Marriage COUPLE WEDDED IN WASHINGTON IN 1914 Mrs. Wm. Powell Denied Knowledge That She Had Child Like a voice from the grave a birth certificate ruptured the 11 years of martial peace and happiness in the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Powell, 2210 McCulloh street, last week when he was granted an absolute divorce in Circu t Court here.

Miss Henson who was then a young woman, Powell claimed was the young lady he led to the altar. In his testimony he stated that he was in ignorance of the occurrence and he deemed this sufficient grounda for divorce. Wife Makes Denial In her petition, Mrs. Powell denied any knowledge of the -birth of the child.

C.-Scholastic activities in the academic branches of Howard University are completely stopped as a result of the strike of students against compulsory military training and physical education. Class Suspended The number of striking students is fixed at 1,200, which includes the members of the senior class of the college department and students of the School of Religion, who voted a sympathetic strike. No classes are being held at the university. The teachers are present, but the students in an orderly, manner are loitering about the campus, which is placarded with signs. A jocular spirit prevails. Determination Prevails Degreemination Prevents Yet there is a determination among the students to main out of class until the last suspending students from the university upon the accumulation of twenty absences from military service, and the classes is abrogated. Since the beginning of the strike last Thursday the students have held mass meetings daily. The first mass meeting last Thursday was held on the campus. Since then they have met either at the Dunbar or the Lincoln theatre. The use of the Howard and Broadway theatres has also been tendered them. Campus Placarded Doors of school buildings are marked with chalk, the walls with paint and every tree placarded. Some placards read: "What is this going to be—an army or a university?" "We love freedom, but we will fight for our rights. Before we will be slaves we will be buried on our graves. Don't be an Uncle Tom." "Dean George Cook has been preaching manhood for 40 years, don't be an Uncle Tom." "They struck at Fisk, why "They struck" at Fisk, who not at Howard?" This is the third big student strike in Howard University history.

Says Durkco At a special meeting last Monday afternoon, the faculty voted to go on record "that order will be maintained in buildings and on grounds that no student he interrupted going to and from class rooms." During the day, striking students picketed the buildings in an effort to get all students to remain out or classes. There were charges that the teacher had been in a resort to force, but these were denied by Arthur M. Brady, president of the Student Council. In a conference Monday night, President J. Stanley Durkee advised members of the Student Council that police would come to maintain order, if necessary. Authorities were asked especially that the police sent be colored.

NEWS FROM WASHINGTON --- THE NATIONAL CAPITAL WASHINGTON OFFICE 1924 13th Street, N. W. B. F. GARDNER In Charge VICE PRESIDENT FOR HOWARD OPPOSED Neval Thomas Says Plan Is To Put It Over At June Trustee Meeting AIM TO FREE DURKEE FOR BOSTON WORK Dr. James E. Moorland, Now Trustee, Said To Be Slated For The Post (By NEVAL THOMAS) Washington, D. C.—The alumni of Howard University are affirmed over the persistent and widespread rumor that President Durkee is to recommend to the trustee board at its June meeting the creation of the office of vice president at a large salary, far larger than that of any of the veteran servants who have given to the school its high standing among the universities of the land. Large numbers of the alumni are both to believe that the trustees will be led into any such extravagance, for they see that Dr. Durkee hasn't sufficient work here to keep him busy, having time to hold the presidency of the Curry School of Expression. In Boston, where no colored student is admitted, and to head the difficult effort of raising an endowment for this undemocratic institution. Waste of Funds Second, it objects because it means the wastage of the university's meagre funds. With a large body of self-supporting students, it can help them in their heroic struggle upward in the world, and the professional staff giving their valuable service at rationally low wage, it seems incredible. It also ensures that the real needs of the university. trustees do decide to create this office, and the appointment should not be one of the trustees. The gentleman whose name is reported to be settled upon, Dr. Jesse B. Moreland, has spent his entire life at the university, and is not even a college graduate. Miller, Brown, Wesley There are many men and women in all departments of the university who would dignify such an office and be able to render the university some service by virtue of their long experience in educational pursuits. We see the greatest of our alumni, Prof. Kelly Miller, whose scholastic achievements and lofty station in the world of education and letters has done most to give Howard her fair fame throughout the nation. We see Dr. Sterling N. Brown, of the theological department, a scholar of fine diplomacy, who could do much to relieve the immensely strained relations between the president on the one side and the alumni, faculty and student body on the other, so detrimental to the university, a gentleman whose wide contacts with philanthropy could be used to grant profit, if a younger man is preferred, why not Prof. Charles Young, people and his standing among Wesley, with his large influence over educators and scholars? We could go on indefinitely naming the splendid material at the school, to whom such a reward for faithful service should come, if the trustees are determined to give the university this office which we hold should not be created.

PHARMACISTS' WIFE AWARDED DIVORCE S' WIFE TO DIVORCE THEIR JOB TO CARRY OUT BIG PROGRAM Should Be Supported, He Says By National Race Organi Mrs. Dorothy Douglass Wins THREE CHILDREN ARE ALSO AWARDED HER Husband Testifies His Drug Store Will Be Sold At Public Auction AFRO Bureau—Washington, D. C.—Justice William Hitz, in Equity Court No. 2, last Wednesday awarded Mrs. Dorothy E. Douglass a limited divorce from her husband, Dr. James W. Douglass, a pharmacist, who conducted a drug store at the corner or Fourth and Elm streets, north-west. She was also given temporary custody of their children, James W., 7 years; Daniel E., 5 years, and Audrey. 2 years. She is permitted to leave them temporarily in the care of her sister, Mrs. Daniela Evans Allen, in Wimbington, Delaware. Justice Hitz declared, however, that he thought that the children should be brought back into the District of Columbia whenever either one or both of them parents should be able to care for them properly. The question of all money was also held in reserve. The court took the position that if it should award Mrs. Douglass a proper amount to care for herself and the three children, it would be utterly impossible for Dr. Douglass to pay it in his present financial condition. Dr. Douglass was brought out during the trial that the drug business which Dr. Douglass had been conducting, had not been paying. It has been determined that the drug business which Dr. Douglass testified, and the day before Mrs. Douglass was awarded the decree he was forced to close. It will be sold at public auction, he said. Justice Bitz quashed the writ of new exeat, which kept Dr. Douglass in the District of Columbia in bonds of $500. Dr. Douglass testified that he had been unable to obtain work in the District of Columbia, although he had made efforts to do so. Mrs. Douglass in her bill of complaint charged the doctor with cruelty and non-support. Dr. Douglass denied her charges. He claimed that he had never struck her and that he had always provided for her and that he had allowed her to be held in his ability. He admitted, however, that there had been quarrels between them on account of money matters. He charged that she was extravagant.

C.—About six representative colored men and women, supported by national organizations, are needed in Washington to promote the political welfare of colored Americans. This is the opinion of Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General, who is finishing four years of Government service in the nation's capital. Mr. Howard, who is also a member of the Republican National Committee, has had ample opportunity to observe conditions. "The most crying need of the colored people of this country," he says, "for five or six upstanding, capable, energetic and intelligent men and women, to be stationed in Washington and supported by funds that are independent separate and apart from any that comes "Their duty should be to formulate a constructive program after consultation with the 'best minds,' and devote their entire energy and efforts towards the consummation of this program, which should include plans for remedial legislation, political recognition by appointment to responsible offices, the elimination of segregation and discrimination on the part of Government of fields and general propaganda of a same kind looking to our general uplift." "Perhaps the most practical way in which to initiate this plan would be for several national organizations to get together and provide a budget to this end." Mr. Howard added that he had given careful study to the political situation as it particularly affects colored persons, and that he believes that about six capable, earnest and energetic representatives of the highest type stationed in Washington would accomplish larger and more substantial results than any expedient that has been or is now being tried.

Dr. J. C. Delano (the founder of the World Famous Blood medicine Herbs of Life) was called in to dress the wound and found that the patient was suffering with a fractured skull and concussion of the brain. Dr. Delano started in his new case with a determination to bring about satisfactory results; and at the end of thirty days, the patient was not only completely cured but her hair over the bruised spot had grown to such a remarkable degree that it aroused the curiosity of both her family and Dr. Delano; so much so, that the doctor questioned her as to what was it that she had been using on her hair during the treatment. Her reply was that she had only been using the oilment prescribed by the doctor. in Dr. Belia's research, he discovered that falling hair was due to simple inflectional changes.

The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly Howard Students On Strike Durkee 500 Miles Away Third of a series of articles on “Durkecism” and Howard University” by Alumnius. Washington, Di. C.—Since last week’s article on the unfortunate behavior of Dr. Durkec, when he took over the administration of Howard University, 1,200 undergraduates have gone on a strike. It appears that after Dr. Durkec’s hope of transforming Howard University into a big Sunday school perished, he conceived the notion of converting the university into a military academy. Students have been forced into the Reserve Officers Training Corps unit of the Union. The fact is that there never was any assurance that Howard University would become eligible. In two instances, during the life of the academy, Howard University professors were retired by special legislation. It is true, however, that college students were not supposed to recite in the same building with the secondary group, or to live in the same diary. Howard University lost was merely to place the academy into another building, as subsequently the conservatory of music was set apart; and to take the academy students out of the dormitories. It was not necessary to destroy the academy for it; it was purpose. More stress has been placed on military training than upon academic training. A college quarter a week, which lasts twelve weeks, is the first time a student is required to take three subjects a day for five days a week. If he is absent from any academic class fifteen times out of the quarter, he is excluded from that class, but permitted to attend his remaining two classes, without prejudice to those subjects. If the same student cuts his military instruction twenty times during a quarter, he is expelled from the university. In other words, his tenure in the university depends almost solely upon his attendance in the R. O. T. C. He may drop a subject with impunity, but must keep his engagement with the military department. Howards character will have to be amended to legalize this unreasonable military preparation. Darkee Off to Boston When the students threatened trouble and the strike became inevitable, President Dukes board a train for Boston, to preside at the commencement exercises of his other institution, the Curry School of Expression. It was after the news of the strike had been reported on the front page of the Washington papers that he returned to the Howard end of his dual presidency. This is but one of the many palpable illustrations of his $10,000 worth of interest in Howard University. The purpose, however, of this week's article is to trace one of Dr. Dukes' early "educational reforms," that the reader may have some insight into the lamentable weakness that has characterized the administration of Howard University for the last seven years. Any person conversant with educational problems and procedure knows that educational reforms are not born over night. They come as a result of evolution rather than of revolution. A genuine educator studies his problem and gradually brings about needed changes based upon sound pedagogical reasons. Dr. Durkee, fresh from the pulpit, and pathetically ignorant of college terminology, decided upon an in medias res policy. He plunged right in, confident of the support of his Board of Trustees: His awkwardly disguised objects were first, to remove from any semblance of power ever Howard man connected with the several faculties; second, to abolish the academy; and third, to reorganize the college according to a plan to which he himself did not understand. Though a minister of the Gospel with the religious fervor of a camp-meeting preacher, he entered upon his administration with a bitter and indescribably hostile feeling towards Professors Cook, Miller and Tunnell of the college faculty: Professor Syphax of the academy faculty: Dr. McNeill of the medical faculty; and Attorneys Hart and Richards of the Law faculty. It was obvious from the start that these men were deemed to embarrassment. Most Vicious Devilment The writer has learned from experience and observation that the most vicious kind of devilment can often be perpetrated by the ministers of the Gospel, for they are the least likely to be suspected of conduct unbecoming a Christian. Taking advantage of the confidence which they merit by reason of their calling, they frequently pull off stunts that would make the most degraded politician wince before attempting. But far he it from the intention of the writer to hurt this indictment against ministers as a class. Only the offending brethren are meant, and such will be foremost in identifying themselves. Everything Wrong Dr. Durkee could not wait for his first month to pass before beginning his dastardly work, but began almost simultaneously with his advent to the presidency. With the most reprehensible arrogance, he gave the college faculty to understand that everything was wrong at Howard. He did not say it, but he strongly suggested that he was being divinely guided to set things aright at Howard University. He gave the impression that he had one of those gifts, of which Cooper writes in his "Lenther Stocking Tales." One bold, bad deal suggested that perhaps some critic of the university had been misinforming the president. The president resented the suggestion, declaring that he had never talked to a soul about conditions at Howard. A few days later, an ex-president of Howard addressed the students and faculty, telling him of his long conference, during the summer, with President Durkee, on many of the problems at Howard. It will require a separate article to review the mean, contemptible and un-Christianlike treatment which these able alumni of Howard underwent, but suffice it, at this time, that students became alarmed about the tenure of their beloved Dean Miller, Dr. Durkee saw that he could not displace Dean Miller in their affections, so he called them together and said, "The report has gone that your president is going to remove Dean Kelly Miller. I want you young people to know that if I were fool enough to try to dismiss Dean Miller, I would be too big a fool, to be president of Howard University." (Deafening applause and laughter.) College Blsected Well, in less than three months the president decided that the academy would have to go and that the college would have to be bisected. He said that the presence of the academy prevented the college professors from enjoying the benefits of the Rockefeller Retirement Fund for College Professors. He had heard that the college work had to be divorced from the secondary work to make professors eligible. He erroneously concluded that just as soon as the divorce went was made, Howard professors would automatically become eligible to retirement. ```markdown ``` GRADUATION DAY You have looked forward to that child's graduation day for years. Day after day you've seen that child run off to school. Night after night you've seen that child study and study and study the next day's lessons. It's just a few days till Graduation Day. You must feel happy. WHAT ABOUT THAT CHILD'S FUTURE EDUCATION? You can do nothing greater at this glorious Commencement Season than to assure that child's future with a State and District Offices: 1129 Druid Hill Avenue Baltimore, Md. The fact is that there never was any assurance that Howard University professors would become eligible. In two instances, during the life of the academy, Howard University professors were retired by special legislation. It is true, however, that college students were not supposed to recite in the same building with the secondary group, or to live in the same dormitory. Howard's task was merely to place the academy into another building, as subsequently the conservatory of music was set apart, and to take the academy students out of the dormitories. It was not necessary to destroy the academy for this purpose. Academy Needed Howard men and women know that the "academy served as a necessary adjunct to the college. In fact, all colored colleges are still in need of academies. The secondary schools for colored students, with a few notable exceptions, have not yet measured up to accredited secondary work. Their students inevitably have more preparation to make before entering a reputable college of A standing. The academy, therefore, served as a repair-shop for such students. When the academy was abolished, it must have had an enrollment of over 300. Its importance is thus clearly indicated. Instead of abolishing the academy by cutting off one year at a time, he suddenly closed the doors. What was to become of the prospective academy seniors? Many of them were taken into college "on condition". To make matters even worse, all candidates over 21 years of age were permitted to enter college, regardless of their equipment. In this way, some students who had never finished high school were admitted. 6.870 Conditioned At the time of the academy reform, President Durkee visited Hampton Institute. While there, he committed himself to a policy of admitting Hampton graduates to the college. The faculty protested, but the president insisted that he had made the promise and would be greatly embarrassed if the faculty voted otherwise. He was "loyally" sustained, and entering conditions were, accordingly trimmed to admit Hampton graduates. At this time, Hampton had not expanded its course, so that its work did not approach the standards of an accredited high school. Syphinx and Cammings Just a parting word on the academy situation. When the academy was abolished, President Durkee recommended that the faithful and efficient Dean Emeritus Cummings, a New Englander of the old missionary type, be pensioned. Such a recommendation may well pass as a real achievement of the president. Dean Cummings had served for 30 years, and his heart was in his work. Not a voice will be found that will sound other than praise for the venerable dean, or Dr. Durkee's action. In the academy, Dean Syphax had served 29 years, taking over the deanship in the last three or four years of the academy. He too was faithful and efficient, but Dr. Durkee made absolutely no provision for Prof. Syphax in the reorganization. Pressure had to be brought upon the president to give Dean Syphax a professorship in the college. College Black Ldst Dean Symphax had objected to the destruction of the academy. He was promptly placed upon the "Black List", and woe unto the professor who is placed upon that list. Dr. Durkee has demonstrated his ability as a fighter of men, as subsequent articles will show, but not as a fighter for funds. In our next article we are going to take a peep into Dr. Durke's college reform, which forced ten colored professors to fight, without a aid of a sympathizing public, to save the college work. THOMPSON-WILSON Washington—The marriage of Miss Jillson, a Howard University student, has been announced in April last year by the Rev. Alton Moore, who is living at 727 Girard, street, northwest. Call VErnon 6017 Washington, D. C.—A coroner's jury Monday ordered Ada Simpson, 30 years old, of 1749 F. street, northwest, held for the action of the grand jury. In connection with the murder of Clarence Carter, 45 years old, of 1825 F. street, northwest. Heart Stitched Carter was fatally stabbed last Saturday morning while riding in an untomobile with Ada Simpson and Emma Black, with whom he is said to have lived. The knife wounds penetrated his left side, one extending through the heart. He was rushed to Emergency Hospital following the stabbing. Dr. Harry Lewis laid open the region surrounding the heart, took a needle and black silk thread and spliced the organ with three stitches. Herbert Beckwith, an orderly at the hospital, then volunteered for a blood transfusion. This delicate operation, however, failed to save his life. Carter died Sunday morning at 10.30 o'clock. Were to Marry Miss Simpson was taken into custody shortly after the stabbing. At first she accused Mrs. Black. Later at the House of Detention when informed of Carter's death, she made a statement admitting that she had struck the fatal In this statement given to Detective W. J. Barber, of the Second Precinct, she said that she and Carter were to have been married Monday and at the time of the altercation were on their way to obtain the license. At the time of her arrest, Officer E. Williams, of the Eighth Precinct, who made the arrest, testified at the Inquest that Miss Simpson told him that she was in a delicate state and Carter had promised to marry her. Love Triangle From the evidence given before the coroner's jury, it appears that the presence of two women in an automobile with him at the same time was the cause of the trouble resulting in Carter's death. Mrs. Black, who said that she was living with him, testified that she got in the car to go only to the corner store, but that she was "going as far as the car was going," as long as the other woman was in it. Girl's Confession The statement of the Simpson woman, which was read to the coroner's jury, is as follows: "On Friday, May 8, 1925, Clarance Carter came to my room to make arrangements about our wedding. When leaving me he told me to meet him at 7 o'clock Saturday morning, May 9, on the 18th street between E. and G. "I was there, and Carter met me on time. Emma Black was sitting on the front seat of the automobile. I said to Clare: 'Must I get in the car?' He said, 'yes.' I got in the rear seat. "Our arrangements were to go to the city hall and get a license to get married. I did not know he was going to have Emma Black with him: "We all drove north on 19th street to M and west on 31st street, to 11th street, northwest; when I said to Clare Carter, 'Stop and let me out.' He refused to stop and when we got to 10th and M streets, I reached over and caught Carter by the arm and said to him, 'Please stop,' Carter turned and hit me twice in the face. I picked up a knife from the pocket of the automobile. It was Carter's knife. When he started to hit me the third time, it was then I struck at him two times with the knife."

EVELYN HUNT'S COLUMN Washington Herald, May 11, 1925. Why purchase a newspaper, which insults you? Women 'Achieve' And 'Do' While Men Wine And Dine (By "SEARCHLIGHT") Colorphobia, the curse of American civilization, was given a staggering setback, the other evening, by the American Federation of Colored Women. Hate off to these womanly warriors! In the new order of things, the colored women and the colored students are showing the way to race adjustment in the "Land of the free and the home of the brave." The colored women of America have just exposed to the world the American brand of democracy—more correctly termed hypocrisy. In a colossal auditorium, a stone's throw from the residence of the President of the world's most renowned democracy, race discrimination broke out in its most violent form. Vertical Segregation Colored patrons of culture and refinement were huddled off to themselves by means of "vertical segregation." In these days of studied policies of immersion, two types of segregation have been devised—"vertical," which gives colored patrons one side and the whites the other; and "horizontal," which gives the colored patrons the rear and the whites the front seats. The American Federation of Colored Women, under the leadership of Miss Hallie Q. Brown, quietly but forcefully refused to accept American democracy according to southern ideals. In well-measured words, Miss Brown told the world that segregation has no more in an International Council of Women and the council, minus the Nero-but-ing contingent, echoed the thought. The foreign delegates have been unable to interpret, at close range, America's vantaged democracy. Foreigners See Prejudice If this laudable stand taken by the colored women has no other effect, it has shown the foreign delegates how Negroes are treated in this country and has, undoubtedly, aroused sympathy for the Negro's cause. It is an assured fact that the Negro's only hope lies in his own efforts and success in the foreign friends's way-bring to hear with American offer a fashion, the foreign countries may send missionaries over to America to make American democracy safe for the Negro. The colored women realize that it is not only the moment of the Negro in America. No greater opportunity could have come to the women embraced this opportunity with telling effect. They have merited the recognition of every Negro in this country. Women Determined The colored women of America are determined to bring about better race relationships. They are going about their task in a peaceful but persistent manner, subduing difficulties and daring dangers. It is to the women of the race that we must look more and more for delivery from these perplexing and agitated questions of race adjustment. It is a noteworthy fact that the colored women's sphere is constantly expanding. They have, perhaps, outstripped the men in initiative and accomplishment. Men love to talk. Women love to do. While men are winning and dining, women are effectively achieving New York.—A local bonding company has paid a claim of $1.1 million for the misappropriated by Henson J.

The crime is alleged to have been committed on the second floor of 623 Morton street, northwest, where the wife is said to have been living. Both were found with pistol wounds. The accused had a pistol wound in his head and recovered, but his wife, after being removed to the Emergency Hospital, was found to be dead. George Mitchell is charged with the murder of William Jenifer, April 12th, last, on Douglas road, southeast, in an argument over a five cents cut in a crime.

They are prejudice Common Prejudice, racial or otherwise, is a seed deeply planted in every human being. It is as common as thirst, or has ger, or any other elemental passion or mankind. Its complete eradication of all种类, perhaps, is accomplished, in mitigation, however, is possible. And, in general, State, and Federal laws will necessarily aid in taking some of the out of prejudice, but such enactment has never, and can never, ever be, the evil. It is education alone that has the curative power. Ignorance Is Parent Ignorance is the parent of prejudice. The colored women are leading the race right before the fight, and efficiently managed the fight and efficiently managed the civilization Building. In the National Hall, stands as a monument to the man people lesson to the public that color prejudice runs down, when they invade the city. Miss Burroughs Likewise, Miss Nannie Burrows, school stands in the Nation's Capital, another vital witness of the coling women's initiative, industry, and accomplishment. Her successful very may well pass as a miracle of prudence, good sense, and benevolence. It is an accepted fact that the women of the race take over the finery of the churches, create fools for clothing for the needy, cheer the sick in the hospitals, and perish countless other tasks of racial upheaval. There is a kind of contagion in the willingness to serve. Their optimism has no limit. Their hopes are same. College Graduates A cursory glance at the colored women who have graduated from college and are serious workers. It has also been thought that a college education fits its graduates for a desperate life as a woman with a colored women. This is functioning as real leaders. Years, they are furnishing students for worthy work. They are for worthy women. Never, they are manifesting a whole some interest in all matters of our daily lives and a positive and progressive program. A. Prophetic Start Thus the work of the colored women has had a prophetic start. The up of the ballot has accelerated their pulse to ameliorate the living conditions of their race. They have already demonstrated their unfalling respect for rejecting the vicious practice of sex agitation. They have the ear and the men of their foreign friends. They are set to follow up their advantage. By all means, let us warmly applaud what the colored women have accomplished thus far. Let us help them in all their race-improving activities. Meanwhile, our determined women will go on with their immeasurable efforts to their race; and, with refreshed inspiration, will show America the real true democracy. 32 SENATORS TO BE ELECTED NEXT YEAR Washington, D. C.—(A. N. P.) Thirty-two senators are to be served next year and colored voters are being asked to study their records before the campaign In 25 of the states where elections are to occur in 1926, the Senators are now Republicans. For of them are from the rots-ribed Democrat disfranchising South. Expert authorities declare the Democrats have a fighting chance in no less than two-thirds of the states now having Republican senators. In some of these states the colored vote is not a factor. In Massachusetts former Senator David L. Walsh, Democrat, will expose Senator Wm. M. Butler, human of the Republican National Committee. Butler has done necking and it is thought that the colored vote will go to Walsh. In New York, Senator Walsh, Republican, will be appointed probably by Al Smith, Democrat. Smith naturally will get full vote. In Pennsylvania, if Governor Pinchot decides to come out apes, Senator Pepper, the latter will be colored support because Pinchot is Governor has made no coloured pointments. In Illinois, Senator McKinley will get full support of the colored vote but Senator Willis, Senator Watson of Indiana and Senator Ernest of Kentucky, are not regarded with great deal of approval. A Republican in Kentucky cannot be elected without the colored vote but Ernest has shown himself as totally indifferent during his term at the Capital. MRS. FRANCIS DEAD Washington, D.

The Commission has adopted a resolution urging the New York authorities to purchase the tract immediately on the grounds that such a public resort, located near the reformatory prison on Harts Island, would not only facilitate the escape of prisoners, but would also make easy the smuggling of drugs, weapons and other contraband articles into the prison.

Y.—Actions against 42 tenants of 103, 105, 107, 109 West 141st street, required a four-day session at the Seventh District Court, 320 West 125th street, with 96 exhibits marked as evidence. The jury decided in favor of the present tenants, remaining in possession. Attempts were made to evict them as the four houses had been sold to prospective tenants on the co-operative plan. The court reserved decision to set aside the verdict. The trial was prolonged due to the fact that all purchasers of apartments in the houses could testify that they bought stock in the enterprise. Besides marking the stock certificates as exhibits, the leases given to each tenant and 12 owners and documents were included in the evidence. Most of the co-operative owners are professional people, among them being doctors, lawyers, dentists and school teachers. After purchasing the apartments on the co-operative plan the tenants who are now in possession refused to move. During the trial Justice Ellenbogen entered the settle the case by giving the tenants a five month stay with the last two months rent free. The co-operative buyers were willing to agree to this plan and it was further stipulated that if any of the present tenants vacated before the five months allowed them they would be reimbursed to the extent of two months rent. Most of the tenants were in position for a six-month stay, and the provision but after a conference decided they would rather go on trial. Under the law the co-operative owner has 100 per cent sold. The defense of the present tenants was that the co-operative have sufficient purchasers of the stock.

Despite the change of title to the "Chocolate Dandles" the routine proceeds without a hitch identically as it did under the former title. So what is in a name?

FEMALE IMPERSON'TOR A FINISHED PERFORMER Andrew Tribble Created Two Characters that Have Made ALLEN V ABOUT Disaprover atres I York W SOUTHERN TEA But Actor BLUE GRASS STATE One Of Artists To Tour Pantages Circuit Of Eight Houses The Pekin Stock Company which Mourished some years ago in incarnation of four performers, who have since become celebrated, than any other single organization in the country. Miller and Lyles, Charles Glipin, J. Ed. Green, J. Francis Moore, Lawrence Chenault, Lottie Goe, Lottie Grady, and the subject of this article, Andrew Tribble, the best known portrayer of "low-down" comic characters known. Tribble when not a lady on the stage is a gentleman. He is a teacher of all all modest in speaking of his achievements. He is about 5 ft. 4 in. in height, and is a teacher of all to an appreciable extent. He was born in and attended school in Richmond, Ky., about 5 miles from his home. The population of about six thousand, and therefore held out very little to one of Tribble's inclinations and Joins Pekin Company After a short course in the school which the hometown afforded, the young man turned his eyes and feet towards a big town, and landed on the street downs, and many of the latter, he finally joined the celebrated Pokin Stock Company then under the direction of the late Mr. Motts. When Cole and Johnson formed the "Shoo Fly Regiment" in 1906, Mr. Trible created the role of Ophelia. This highly successful character man, careless, kindly, tough, and above all desirous for an affair of the heart, just the same as her sisters more blessed with beauty. In second place, he was the man to the Trible dild Lily White to the delight of all those who saw this clever and faithful delinquency of a type unique on the stage, and an engagement which in company with the kite Matt Marshall brought a tour over the Pantagories time. This achievement is notable because he was fully accepted as they are today. Polished Actor As with other members of the former Chicago Stock Company, he was a gentleman, a actor, and has been one of the mainstays in the company that has been engaged at the Regent for the last twenty-five years, the pioneer thespians who have borne the burden in the heat of the day. Men and women of his school laid the foundation upon which the present theatrical structure is "Jim Crowed" In Ohio The Cleveland Gazette mentions gross discrimination against Negroes at Luna Park, that city.

History WAS BORN IN Houses RETURN ALLEN WRITES EDITOR ABOUT SPIRITUALS Disaprove Their Use In Theatres In Letter To New York World SOUTHERN SCHOOLS TEACH SACREDNESS But Actors In North. Utilize Them As Cheapest Kind Of Jazz Medium Cleveland Allen in N. Y. World From time to time I have protested against the Negro spirituals being sung in theatres and otherwise desecrated that have always contended that these songs ought to be held sacred, and anything done to cheapen or to commiserate them is to be greatly deplored. Most of these songs, especially the spirituals, had a most tragic birth and under circumstances that made them so powerful, the weapons with which the Negro expressed his hope, faith, service, adoration, joy, and of for things other than the material success tendency to lift these songs out of the sacred setting around which they were created and where they must be kept. And these songs sung in the theaters under the most grotesque conditions, gone with no other purpose than to produce laughter and joy, are the whatever of their sacredness or the traditions surrounding them. When these songs are sung in the theaters an altogether wrong impression is made, and the real message of the songs is lost. In the lectures which I have given for the Board of Education in New York, I always emphasized the sacredness of the Negro spirituals and how they must always be held in a spirit of reverence. A great many people have sung and heard one must think of conditions that brought them about. Spirituals Sacred It is difficult to get over the message of these songs in a setting such as the theatre provides. The atmosphere in the theatre is pure and must be sung under the most ideal conditions, such as provided by churches, concert halls, schools and colleges. The Negro colleges in the city have a long tradition. Hampton, the Penn School, Atlanta's University and others, teach their students the sacredness of this music. The Negro spirituals are always emphasized, and they medalize them or drag them to a low level is to be greatly deplored. New Compositions Are Played by Pianiste Cleveland, Ohio—Among the numbers played by Miss Hazel Harrison, pianist, at the St. John's recital on Tuesday evening, were "A Cabin Song" (spiritual) and "Where the Hermit Dwolls." With assistance by Gretel Willis, Thompson, soprano, the two numbers mentioned above were composed by Mrs. Elinora Manon of Chicago, and have appeared on most of the programs of her recent Southern tour.

Hampton Club Presents Plays Hampton, Va.—The Shakespeare Dramatic Club of Hampton Institute, recently presented three one-act Japanese plays. “THE THIEVES” “The Thieves,” according to S. W. Phraner, instructor in English, Teacher College, Hampton Institute, was played with extreme gesture and laughable foolishness. It presented two stock characters, the servants, Geml and Yemi, played by Thomas W. Young, of Norfolk, and Samuel E. Lee, Jr., of Moncks Corner, S. C., in their successful attempt to steal from their master. As no setting nor properties were used the audience had to imagine everything. In their rascality these scamps made one think of the similar type on the Roman comedy stage—the trickery servant of Plautus. The part of the master was played by Denton D. Johnson of Gainsville, Fla. “Bushido,” a classical tragedy written by Takeda Izuno and first produced in 1746, was adapted from “The Village’s School,” otherwise called “Matsu, the Pine Free.” This tragedy vividly portrayed the loyalty of a Samurai who did not hesitate for an ideal to sacrifice for his son. "Porsaken Love," a poetical drama, adapted from "Lay Priest Tagkuchi" by Anzikzal, presented in the same time of action about 1150, tells the story of a Samurai's sacrifice when obedience to his father and his clan came in conflict with a love call.

Jesse "Nip" Winters was on the mound for Hildale on Saturday and despite the fact that he yielded two touchdowns, the boys from the City of Churches could amass.

Roberts has already started work with the New York Giants at the Thinlakelehrebens at the Protectory Oval on Sunday. May 10. Walks and Wins. He has the reputation of walking more men than playing more games than any pitcher in the country. On one occasion he walked 16 men, pitching against Rube Roberts team but won a 1 to 0 victory. Since the loss of Francis, the Bacharach Giant's weak spot has been third base while the Lincoln's Rickard Tells H --Jeffries Fig Rickard Tells How Johnson --Jeffries Fight Was Secured Even after the Gans-Nelson fight at Goldfield, I had no idea of ever getting into the game as a promoter. That, naturally, gave me a lot of freedom to play, to have explained—and, to tell the truth, I was sort of nugged into the game. Our newsreel had been much talk in the newspapers about the many offers for the Jeffries-Johnson fight, and as to the location. All the promoters, it seemed, were decoyed. San Francisco paper turned out a cartoon showing a big jackass braying and saying "Where is Tex Rexkidin?" San Francisco I got the idea that they though me sort of an ass—a fly-by-night fellow. It sort of netted me. In fact, I took as a chance to see Thomas Kline but for that cartoon I never would have gone into the fight promoting business. I had to go to Duluth, Alum., to see Thomas Kline, but for that cartoon I never would have gone into the fight promoting business. He is a prominent man in business affairs. "Tex," he said to me, "why don't you go after this Jeffries-Johnson fight?" On the way back I went to Minneapolis to meet a Mr. Piper, another prominent businessman. He asked me a question. With these two suggestions on top of that jackass cartoon I got my neck bowed and started the Newark thought, and kept quiet. A little latter I packed up and started East without saying a word to anybody. Starts on Hunt for Johnson. I went to San Francisco only way to be sure of a light was to call one of the fighters first. That would be an ice in the hole. I felt, "I am not going to be uped in San Francisco by somebody—probably Sam Berger, his manager. That later proved to be correct." Finally, I headed for Chicago, looking for Jack Johnson. I found that he was showing in Pittsburgh. I went on there and found him. We talked about what he learned that Johnson, as usual, was pretty nearly broke. "Mister Tex." he said to me, "I goin' to tell you something I fixed up. There ain't none of it help! he helpl me, though. I'm tellin' the world I needs help." How much do you need, I ask.

(By Tex Rickard) IN STRAW HATS $2.85 weakness for the past two years has been their pitching staff, hence the trade. Flory Disposition Although Marcel is generally recognized as a great third baseman, he has been a storm, center on the New York team for the past year. Possessed of an unusually quick temper, he becomes unpopular with local fans because of his readiness and the time he impresses. Nevertheless, he will be missed by his former teammates and many fans. He is strengthened the Lincoln, Jim Kcean has also signed "Stringhean" Williams and Johnson, two veterans of the game, and he is the Singer in left field, Thomas in center and Tom Fial in right. George Scales is now playing third and Dean, whom he secured from Chanpeng Suns, is playing shortstop. This new combination will be the best Cuban Stars in their first series with the Lincoln, Sunday, May 17th. How Johnson right Was Secured promise to keep quiet until the right time. "One Glimpse Starts Talk I slipped into New York quite like and thought nobody in the world knew I was there. At the Waldorf Astoria Hotel I ran slip into Vincent Treanor, a well-known sporting writer. "What are you doing here?" he asked, surprised. He looked up, just looking around to see whats going on?" He darted out of the place and telephoned. That night the Evening World carried a big headline con- tained that I was in New York to get the big fight. I was like a bombshell to the other promoters and Jeffries. Though I had not said so, the story was right in almost The next day I went around to get the hyl of the land. I found that a scheme had been framed up with a jacket, an agger, and JACK Gleason and another man were to get in on the fight some way. In fact, I saw that they didn't have bid $100,000. would get the fight, no matter what other offer came in. I always liked Jeffries and went to him. They all treat me better than they didn't treat me. They didn't me around. They did not know that I had Johnson sewed up and I didn't tell them for a while. Kind of offers were coming in. Finally I tipped my hand. They saw I had the acc. I agreed to bid $101,000. compromise. Also I agreed to allow Jeffries a bonus of $10,000 if he would sign. Incidentally, to fair play, I told Johnson a bonus of $10,000. That fixed everything. It was all set and dried. We went to New Jersey to open the bids as soon as possible, but I was to get the fight anyway. 15 Offers, But No More Cash A big crowd of sport writers were there to see the bids opened. Most of them checked with "ifs and "ands" on the back. These chacks didn't mean anything. Still thinking of Klondike I had occluded with my bid the whole required deposit of deposit of $20,000 in $1,000 bills. You out should have seen the crowd cheeked off, and then money and also Jack Johnson's eyes. They almost popped out of his head. There was a long reading of the various offers "offered" from them other bids, Mister Chairman," said Johnson frequently: "jes" read dat one of Mr. Rickard's again. I jes" read dat another. Again and again they showed him the bills, his gold teeth glittering in a smile, his eyes rolling. Johnson was never anything more than crowd laughing for an hour. And so it happened I was awarded the fight on my bid of $101,000. The sight of real money with Johnson and the crowd had its effect. There was a long detailed agreement with Jeffries, Johnson, Glenson and other about the respective. Then came the question of finding a location for the fight. Personally, I wanted Salt Lake City, thinking it more central. The others held out bitterly for San Francisco. Then our troubles really began. I was getting my high school course in promoting. There were rumors of trouble with the law; another that Johnson had agreed to law down—all sorts of things.

Frank Hammond, who reign as P. S. A. L. championship. In all his four years he lost one race and that to a colorado student at Tufts College. This year, however, it is the milker who is expected to figure most May 23rd at the Brooklyn Athletic Field and his return to popularity is due to the phenomenal running of the city's TAGINETAOIN High School, mile and cross-country champion of the city. From an accustomed prize winner in the span between two seasons is the accomplishment of this slender, lilim-limbed Brooklyn star. Moore, durring the final season and the following indoor season was usually one of the group that trailed home Costas Nicholades, the runner of Do Witt Cinto High School. Annual Games Then in the annual games of the Herald-Tribune last May, Moore and Brown campaigned that resulted in his running the mile in 4 min. 32 sec. last March. In the mile race last May Moore and Brown home stretch with beautiful spurt and nosed out Garland Brown of Newtown, the favorite for the title. Of the P. S. A. L. Lost fall, Moore did fairly well, but it came as a big surprise when he dothroned Brown for the city title in the final. Indoor Campaign : Thereafter, Moore's sensational running ceased to surprise the P. L. Indoor cougain. During the indoor cougain, he was convincing proof that he is one of the greatest school boy milers that Father Kickerbauer has produced. He was the only to Bill Cox, schoolboy member of last year's Olympic team. Starting in January with the Delaware team, he won every race in which he competed, including the P. S. A. L. Indoor crown. Successively he returned to 3-5, 4:44 1-5, 4:32, and 4:34 1-5, and was rarely forced to stop his best. Seventeen Years Old Moore is 17 years old and of slight build, with the same slim supple legs as Nurm. He has patterned his running closely as possible, with the same height remarkable results. His running is all the more noteworthy, for Moore has little time to practice outside of his school hours; every night he assumes his duties and includes a hike of ten miles or more after mail. Moore has not competed outdoors yet. His start in defense of his mite championship will see him in action running indoors. If he runs to form New Yorkers will see a record mile in the school boy circles. Washington Public Schools To Hold Track Meet June 4 Washington, D.

HUBBARD IS GREATEST COLLEGE ATHLETE The recent demonstration by De Hart Hubbard, University of Michigan athlete in the broad jump at the NCAA meet, has earned Hubbard's jump notched him 25 feet, 6 inches, a new record. Some sport writers think he should stick to broad jumping and not take the time to the dashes. We disagree with them. Hubbard has always been a fast runner but he (Hubbard) has just discovered it. This speed has been his main asset in establishing himself On commenting on the Michigan star's performance, Ned Gourdin of Harvard admitted that if it weren't for the tremendous speed at Hubbard's command, he could never clear 25 feet. Hubbard reaches the take-off, going at 145 feet and 145 seconds per 100 yards. He had indeed faced the receiver he is hurled into space for a distance of 25 feet or more. A fast track man ought to make a good broad jump. The two events are closely related, both requiring speed, as the primary factor to win.

The faculty consists of 40 teachers, with Mr. George A. Owens, principal and Mr. John A. Cotton, vice principal. This is one of the oldest schools in the city, of few having departmental work, each teacher being trained in his special branch and therefore able to give the most expert instruction. The entire building was permeated with industry, the spirit of the endeavor, and, that which was most striking, excellent discipline. The Domestic Science and Art classes are giving the pupils practical training along those essential lines, and the former department is a model in convenience and attractiveness. Classes for Couples In connection with the regular classes, two classes are conducted for crippled children. The enrollment in these classes is 40.

The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weeklv REFUTES PARENTAGE INTERVIEW STORY Say Daily Paper Misquoted Youth In Designating Mother And Father Arthur Walter. 17-year-old last, who received nation-wide notoriety following his election as president of the Newtown High School N. Y. Organization, was formerly a Baltimore boy. This information was given by relatives here who stated that the distinguished young man was not only born here in this city, but was the nephew of the the Rev. and Mrs. Garnet R. Wailer, former pastor of Trinity Baptist Church. Refutes Parentage Story A Baltimore member of the Walle- ler family, himself a prominent business man here, refuted the story of a reporter in the Brooklyn Eagle, which stated that Wallever was the son of an Indian mother and a white father. In there, have been, says this informer, both some white and Indian blood in the Wallever family tree, but the original ancestry of the family comes down through a line of race men and women. Wallever, himself, as well as all members of the family, has always regarded as of Negro parent- age. According to the reputed inter- view in the Brooklyn Eagle, young Wallever was quoted as saying: "I am not a Negro. My father was white as a blood and a mother was full-blooded Indian Squaw." This statement, according to relatives in touch with the lad, was purely fabrication in the minds of the reporter who fashioned the story to suit the occasion, rather than give credit to a member of the Wherever the Wallers have lived and whatever contacts they have and they have ranked as members of the race. Not Race Conscious That Waller was not race conscious, however, and that he looked upon all men and women without racial bins, can be gleaned from this alleged statement made by him: "I have never had any difficulty in mixing in school. never would know that this difference between me and other fellows unless I looked into the Men's and Women's BATH ROBES Sale Price $2.98 $4.98 and WOMEN'S SWEATERS As Low As.... 79c ear Clothing $22.50 Men's Overcoats LEAGUE TO STUDY SCHOOL PROBLEMS Secretary Moss Gathers Information On Local Educational Matters PREPARES DATA ALSO FOR HOPKINS STUDENTS Executive Makes Monthly Report Showing Current Activities That the local branch of the Urban League is interesting itself in educational problems was shown in a recent monthly report of that organization. The League has interested itself in the school situation in several ways. The secretary was a member of the committee that met with Assistant Supt. Flowers and with Miss Cooper, acting Principal of the Colored Training School to meet the cases in the wholesale failures in the examinations for teachers. Also several investigations have been made in the schools and the findings placed at the disposal of the Public Schools Association and made members of the committee Commissioners. The secretary and treasurer of the League have been made members of the committee delegated by the Parent-Teachers' Association to confer with the Board of School Commissioners at a spec-in meeting set aside by that Board to consider the problems in colored schools. Interviews with Mr. Briscoe, Principal-elect of the Colored Vocational School, with Mr. Sylvester, Director, Vocational Training, and with Dr. Weglein, Assistant Suppl of Schools, have resulted in the appearance of those men before the Hampton Association to discuss the plans for vocational training for the colored boys and girls in our public schools. Similar meetings with the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, now being engaged in hopes that they will bear great many questions in connection with this new phrase of Baltimore's educational system. Other Activities Reported The League has taken up with the Business Men's League and the chairman of the Health Week Committee the possibility of celebrating a National Negro Trade Week as outlined by the National Negro Business League. The Atro-American has pledged its support if such a campaign is arranged. This movement has for its purpose the gaining of wider patronage for Negro businesses, and the encouraging of the wider use by colored people of their own men in profession and industry. In response to a request made by the class in Sociology at John Hopkins University several suggestions were made to the group in the State. Several of the students have chosen subjects from their theses from among the list of topics submitted. These same subjects have been presented to the similar class in the College of Nursing has also furnished information a student in Cornell University who is writing his thesis on "The Negro and Labor Unions." To Withdraw The League regrets to announce the withdrawal from Advisory Board of Dr. Bernard Steiner and Mrs. Daniel Miller both of whom gave pressure of other work as their reason for severing direct relations with the 1 League Board. From the Executive Else Mountain noted with regret. Miss Mountain, the popular and efficient former secretary of the Sharp Street Community House, is leaving the city to take up her work in Philadelphia. The Urban League announces the addition of Mrs. Emma Skeen and Miss Georgia Fields to the Advisory Board of the League.

Jenkins was hunting the ivories and before the pachy dime and dollar. The dollar belonged to McDonald. Jenkins—Come seven. (The seven came.) I shoot the twenty. McDonald—Fadel, you are.

That was the last straw on the camels' back and who? McDonald saw the turtle, which meant that he would say farewell to that last dime and with it his supper that night, he made a grab. Well, when the police arrived, both of the men looked as if they had gotten in contact with a hungry bear. McDonald—Judge, I just lost my head. Judge—No, you lost a dollar and now you will lose $10.more and your partner will not be so lucky, for he will lose the same.

Stanley Durkee is president of Howard University in Washington and President of the Curry School of Expression in Boston, the two schools some 500 miles apart. While the good Doctor was up in Boston last week delivering a commencement address and handing out diplomas to the 41 graduates of Curry, the 600 students of the college department at Howard voted to go out on a strike. So like a mother with a pair of squalling twins, the reverend doctor no sooner chases through five States to attend one than the other breaks out and disturbs the neighborhood. The only difference between Doctor Durkee and the mother of two noisy infants is that the former deliberately elected to become president of the two schools at one and the same time. We felt in the beginning that either one of these institutions would give good Doctor Durkee al the opportunity any one man needed for labor or achievement. We know it now and so does he. Prohibition Is Here To Stay "What is to be done? That is for the lawmakers to say." So argues most widely read of the cynics on prohibition. The trouble is that it is not true. It is not for the lawmakers but for the law enforcers, and for the people to say—and do. There is nothing the lawmakers can do. They might theoretically make minor changes in the Volstead act, but any change that would interest the wets would be unconstitutional and would be thrown out by the Supreme Court. The law is here to stay, and could not be changed, substantially, even if there were any possibility of getting the lawmakers who wished to do so. And that is impossible, too. Most of the wet vote is concentrated to make a huge majority in a few districts all of which already have wet representatives. So electing a wet congress is an impossibility, and it could not constitutionally pass any wet law, even if it were elected. Is there then, "nothing to do?" Yes; two things. The enforcement officers can enforce the law well or ill. The people can obey or disobedy. That is all.

The skeleton in the closet of American democracy was drawn out last week at the international conference of women held in Washington, and the dry bones rattled around in a most unseemly fashion. As a result of the "show". American white women did not emerge with the halo of divinity with which their wealth and intellect are wont to endow them. To the contrary they presented to the women from foreign countries a mighty sorry spectacle. Colored delegates to the convention had obtained beforehand the written guarantee that there was to be no segregation at the meetings. There was none at the regular sessions, but at one of the feature meetings, all of the colored visitors were put in seats on one side of the house, the so-called "vertical segregation" in contra-distinction to the "horizontal segregation," in which colored people are asked to sit in the rear. Segregation, however, is segregation, whether horizontal or vertical and following an example to this effect delivered from the platform by Miss Hallie Q. Brown, one of the leaders, the participants on the program and the visitors left the meeting place. It might seem unfortunate that the dirty linen of American race prejudice had to be washed before foreign guests, but then the blame rests on the white Americans who forced Lee segregation, not the colored women who were victims of it. Wealth, culture, intellect and womanhood know no color line. Women who are willing to waive distinctions of wealth or birth or nationality, ought also to be big enough to banish the color line to the same oblivion.

Then it was offered to Professor C. W.

Why the latter was offered the position 'when he had been turned down as an applicant for the local Teachers' Training School, is the kind of a blunder that only those who know the Superintendent of Schools can explain. The investigation, which civic bodies made after the appointment of Dr. Reynolds, and which resulted in the fight against him, should have been made with far less embarrassment before the appointment. The incident only goes to prove the need of an efficient head of colored schools to whom can be delegated full authority and responsibility for those schools. The delays and blunders in the school system convince the AFRO-AMERICAN that the remedy lies in the appointment of an assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools at once. The School Board ought to ask a willing Board of Estimates for a salary for this position not to exceed $5,000, and then give the appointee full authority to handle the colored schools subject to the direction only of the superintendent and the Board.

MURRAY BUT TAKES "DRASTIC" STEPS TO UPHOLD THE 18TH AMENDMENT Every Negro young man and woman should bow in earnest devotion to the life of the one hundredth anniversary of the founders of Uxley, Few men of the white race have done more to preserve versal welfare of dark-skinned people than this English founder and champion of the doctrines of evolution and Darwin. Not that he had in mind any benevolent intent regarding black men and women, but because he helped establish on matters of races and human relations, does he deserve commendation. Will stop at no point so long as clear reasoning will carry me further," he once said when assailed and battered by hide-hound realists and satemen of his When you penetrate the underlying factors responsible for the human advancement in race relations during the last 400 years, you will find evolution playing a part more important than even religion, and it was Huxley more than all men who waged the winning fight against Darwin's philosophy of natural selection, changed the thinking system of the white world. In his day men believed that the Creator set aside some families to rule and others to serve. By Divine right men were born kings; by Divine curse men were born slaves. Both men and slaves accepted this doctrine. Fellacy Exploded But when Darwin exploded this fallacy by showing that all human life had its origin in the slime of an upright and lordly king no less than the humble dweller in the city slums once walked on four legs, he started human beings to thinking who had created the world. It was this thinking that swept an humble Corsican to the throne of France in a Napoleonic; it was this thinking that made the greatest statesman of the 18th century a dwarfier into a Frederick Doughass; and it was this spirit that brought Booker T. Washington from the back woods to head one of the greatest educational institutions that we have. It was evolution which made man the most intelligent difference in races were merely differences in environmental developments. White religion and statesmen dark-skinned men and women as lawyers of wood and drawers of waffer, pure scientific thinking was striving to traco the development of mankind to Science won, and as a result the world, in spite of hidebound and narrow dogmans, is heading towards real brotherhood. Huxley found a world in which men tended to think of all things in terms of themselves. They ever made mistakes, they always had with hate, likes, dislikes, prejudices and selfishness. Men Fashion Gods Ask any man even today his idea of God and he will fashion him according to the sum total of his possessions. To some southern white man, for instance, heaven contains no dark-skinned souls, except those who will be baptized, and wash and wash. Because Jewish thought dominated the pre-Christian era, the religion in every section of the globe is moulded to suit the domestling human traits of its followers. Only science which seeks truth, wherever it may lead, has been able to prove that God is the ultimate efficiency. And Huxley was a champion of brutal acceptance of truth. The process may be slow; but in the end it will be a more efficient progress to hearten the most weary traveller. It has been men like Huxley, that are not turned aside by the world, who helped blaze the way. Fundamentalists may rave; legislatures may try to dam the flow of human thought to square with their own visions, and every man on the face of the earth benefits thereby.

The picture of these children's play presents three interesting angles of life. There was the group spirit common to childhood; there was the comradeship and lack of racial prejudice and bias in a group of children happily mingling together; then there was the natural desire of youth for adventure.

Questions-Answers In Negro History By GEORGE WELLS PARKER (For The Associated Negro Press) Questions pertaining to Negro History should be directed to Mr. Parker, care of the AFRO. It has come to my attention that the young Messenger Magazine distinguished eritic, Mr. J. A. Rogers, takes exception to my calling Cleopatra, a mulatto, also contributing Negro blood to Mohammed and Empress Josephine. He traces the Ptolemy line down to Ptolemy XII and then asserts that cleopatra was in every sense "the daughter of the Ptolenics." But why did our good friend Rogers stop with Ptolemy XII? That is just where he should have started in tracing the descent of Cleopatra. Ptolemy XII was the legitimate son of Ptolemy Soter II, the latter having this son by a native Egyptian woman. This son succeeded to the throne and had four children, one of the four being the renowned Cleopatra. As far as I am able to discover, the famous Cleopatra and her father were the first of the Ptolenic line who possessed Egyptian blood. As to Mohammed, he came of the tribe of Koreish, that famous Arabian house founded by the Vemenites, who were almost pure. Negroes and under Mr. Rogers further says that I am not a person who backs and claims the noted people and civilizations of other races are the sure. Why not?

PROFESSOR FUDGE PROFESSOR FUDGE AMOS HOKUM SAYS Prof. Reynolds Backs Down The resignation of Prof. C. W. Reynolds, of Norfolk, Va., the lately appointed supervisor of the schools of Baltimore, before serving one day of his time reminds me of the Hon. Fred Moore, editor of the New York Age. Some years ago the famous editor who publishes the names and addresses of places where "booze" may be obtained in his weekly journal, was appointed Minister to Liberia. The Hon. Fred, "didded" around for some time and then just when everyone suspected he had his trunk all packed with plenty of summer underwear, he startled the then hungry set of office seekers by resigning. At that time to think of a man thriving away a big fat plum like the Liberian Post in order to continue running a newspaper was to think of a lunatic. It must be understood the concurrence of opinion then among our people was that an editor was simply trying to dodge a certain issue better known as work. But the public then as the public now was misinformed about Editor Moore if not about the situation. Editor Moore at no stage of the game could be rated a borehead. Under his hat he had the keenest kind of a brain. He probably thought to self "why to be the man" to can stay calm and the immature. The fact is he was slipped one years' salary and did not have to move a peg. He stayed at home, built up a good newspaper, which was later to help enforce the eighteenth amendment. He was one of the things at those ministers who went through the thors of African fever. Prof. Fudge Speculates The case of Mr. Reynolds is very much like that of Mr. Moore, with one exception. Reynolds is a retailer, salary and charity him by the City of Baltimore. To tell the truth, it would be as much as Mr. Reynolds, the retailer of the he put in time. However, we must concede Mr. Reynolds must have some good reason for resigning. Any man who has tainted the city must be a smart man to still be alive, and he is a smart man he must have a good reason. I don't believe he resigned because he heard the local principals were going to make it hot for him or any outsider appointee. He must believe he local principals would make it hot for anybody. The fact is the principal and some of the teachers are affluent. He is alleged all of the "big fok" in this city can mark their own children's papers. That is, children of prominent people have to get one of the "Cookman Boy de Thee is one thing that every woman wants to know, snaps Emma Thompson, that is more.

He knew he would be just as much out of place with what he did not have as an noid he was the Washington Pike with no baskets. When Mr. Reynolds was going to school not much stress was laid on athletes. The two best uses to play basketball were the basketball court, but in those days they were not given a full course or at least there was no degree. Eaxing was something different. Therefore, the one degree needed most was relegated to hack loss and places in Baltimore, namely K. O. (Knock) and not in the system. The contests were staged and kept well under cover because it was thought some of the "old foggles" might object to it. But, there was a group of popular primary schools beginning with last September, the course in "Bruising" was put in the curriculum of the primary schools. By February, it was popular in regular primary schools in the grammar school as a course in "Assault and Battery". For a time it looked as though you would swim in the assault and battery course but say not so. Just as the high school is about to have its commencement an additional course in first aid to the injured and stretcher Strange to say in each lesson taught women teachers demonstrated.

Whatnot Column Whatnot Column Kelly Miller Says In comparing the social tone and general life of the Negro in the several cities, one cannot help noting the marked difference of the city with a university or college in its midst as compared with one that has no such local educational advantage. Fortunate indeed is that city which has a great institution of learning: Nashville, Tenn., Of The Traditional South It was my privilege to address the citizens of Nashville, Tenn., on Sunday, September 11, 2014. Tennessee is well worth the making. It is basically a city of the old traditional Southern style, with a strong churchal attitude toward the Negro race. They are kindly, generous and favor every worthy endeavor for their general betterment. Nashville is the seat of the State capital and is easily the educational center, not only because of the country. Here we find the Vanderbilt University, one of the most progressive and up-to-date institutions of learning of the new century, located the Peabody Normal School. Several years ago, the trustees of the Peabody Fund decided to allocate a large fraction of the funds to the establishment of a first class normal school for the education of white teachers for the South. No similar provision has yet been made for the education of Negro teachers. Meant Peabody Fund For Both Races The Peabody Fund was given for the purpose of education in the South for both races. It is probably that in the South, the students are cide upon some one Negro Normal school as their recipient of that portion of the education to the allotted race. It has been, and still is its policy in this respect to apportion small allotments to a number of Negro schools in the Southern part of the Vanderbilt University and the Peabody Normal School are pets of the Northern philanthropists so funneling their money to be earned. Three million dollars have recently been put into the Vanderbilt University, whose plant and equipment facilities of the time. I am dwelling upon the educational institutions for the whites as a backdrop for the Negro institutions for which Nashville is famous. For after all the educational process is of all a piece. The atmospheric tone of the city easily affects that of the other. This mutuality of relationship is made apparent when we compare the white people of Nashville towards Fisk University with that of the whites of Atlanta towards Atlanta University, standing or note for the white race. The educational fame of that city rests the Negro schools and colleges of that city, and the educational institutions for both races abound. The white people of Nashville delight to encourage Fisk and other Negro institutions of the community. In Atlanta, the attitude towards ALA University by the local whites is by no means so cordial. In comparing the social tone and griteness of one of the most successful colleges, one helps noticing the marked difference of the city with a University or college in its midst as compared with one that has no such local educational advantage. Comparison of the Negro life in Cincinnati or Memphis with that of the Negroes in Nashville will bring this contrast clearly into view. Fortunate indeed is that city which has a location of learning planted in her midst. Nashville is widely noted as a city of schools and colleges among Negroes. In addition to these institutions of learning, the two branches of the Neighborhood Building houses in the city of Nashville. The National Baptist Convention, incorporated, is just completing their plan at a cost of six hundred thousand dollars, and stands favorable comparison with the Boyd plant, whose emphasis was exploited during the long controversy between the rival faction which finally won. The African Methodist Episcopal Church also maintains a publishing plant here which conducts several of the important publications of the Church. Before delivering my lecture, the chief object of my visit, of course, must visit the several institutions of learning of the city. I was taken to by Professor J. W. W. president of the Waldron College. He first, as was natural, showed me through the college, over which he has the honor to preside. The Walden College has a very favorable 'location' which it has recently been called the 'Best Medical College', which now stands on its own foundation. The Walden College is well conducted under management and of full faculty. The school is carefully impressed with the appearance of neatness and order which pervades the whole place. This college is under the support and management of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which it is hoped will enable it to maintain its ability to function as one of the strong institutions of the denomination. We have my Cleersons guided me to the State Normal School, over which professor Hale presides. This school is but nine years old, but is big with its facilities. We already cultivated a plant of something like half million dollar value, and has now on hand a building fund of three hundred thousand dollars for immediate enlargement. State Generous To State School The State of Tennessee has shown unexpected generosity toward this Negro State school, and the hope is expressed that in the near future Tennesseans will be making provision for the higher education of the race under State auspices. Roger Williams University has a prominent seat and several splendid buildings. The University has recently been turned over to colored management, and rests mainly upon such support as can be secured from Negro Baptists. In contrast, white Baptists have just completed a Theological building Education Of Races Correlated Big Baptist Publishing Plant Walden College State Generous To Page Eleven on the campus to be operated in close affiliation with the Roger Williams University Professor, Work, for many years Professor of Latin and musical director of Fisk University, has been made a member of the faculty fortunately, his health seems hardly commensurate to the heavy task which the heavy responsibilities of the presi- Meharry Medical College The Meharry Medical College occupies exclusively the campus which has been the home of the department of the Waldron University. The buildings seem fairly adequate for recitation and hospital facilities of the Medical College and the School of Medicine of Howard University, are the two medical schools for the exclusive preparation of Negro students in the medical school which will enable it to retain its rank as a class A college and to keep abreast of the approved medical schools of the time. In close sympathy and helpful articulation with the Medical department of the Vanderbilt University. We may expect that it will develop into a great medical school of the needs of the race in the South and Southwest sections of the country. Meharry and Howard, both working in the Medical College, meet the urgent medical demands of the race. Let us hope that they will both receive the aid and encourage them to make them to fulfill their great function. At Fisk University A visit to Fisk University is a benediction. When one studies the grounds and surroundings of Jubilee Hall, as well as the ground and the potency of the spell of its influence over the young women who come under the influence of its atmosphere, an architectural building is placed in the midst of an entire city square surrounded by an artificial brick wall which does not obscure the vista of the city. The president's house is placed upon the same reservation. It does seem to be an economic waste to devote so much space to a single building, but the building is surrounded by a sphere of its environment, the suggestion of the addition of any other structure to the reservation would be in the nature of a sacrilege. It can be further upon a description of the Fisk University. Its story as well as the ground and the potency of its spell to all who are interested in Newego education. It was my great privilege and pleasure to say a few words at the evening chapel exercise. The midst of a change of administration in its future be as gorgous as its past. City Boasts Of course I called to see the Lion, J. C. Napier, president of the Citizen's Savings Bank. Ly the way, there are two colored banks in the city, both seem to be in flourishing condition. Mr. Napier is Ex-Register of the Treasury. He showed me the chair in which he sat while affixing his signature. He was able to be able to get. I advised him to safeguard that chair carefully, because it seemed that he might be the last man of his race to occupy that position. Time fails me to mention the many distinguished citizens of Nashville. I am singling out Mr. Napier because he is an old neighbor in Washington. Indeed I am now living in the home of the man who has occupied while holding offices under President Taft. Nashville is a great center of enlightenment for the race. All of the plans planned may not be able to survive. They could all be combined and centralized with great economy and increased efficiency. But tradition and factors which must be reckoned with. On leaving Nashville my mind was filled with the thought of the wonderful influence that this center has had upon the life of the race. Its future influence, let us hope, will be bigger and brighter than the past.

My Best Loved Neighbor Everybody has a "best loved neighbor," Write and tell the Neighbor Editor about the neighbor who has been particularly milder to you. Here's what one appreciative contributor writes: Memory pictures to me a long process- tion of loved neighbors, but for one of them there is a special corner in my heart. My first baby was very cross, I knew little about caring-holder him, and little about managing household problems. Often 9 weeks-day, when I was tired, and the baby was his worst, my nephew would slip in and take him for awhile. Sometimes she would suggest that I go for a walk or that my husband and I go to a show while she kept our baby. How many hours of worry she saved me! She had children of her own, too; but found time to help me. When company came unexpectedly I found a pie, a plate of preserves or of warm rolls, slipped thru my pantry window. She knew just what to do when baby was sick, knew how to make stubborn bread rise, and her kindly advice helped me over many difficulties I have had other babies since, and have learned how to manage my work, and also has a dear neighbor is now, far away. I love, her and bless her for her kindly understanding in those trying days, and I'm trying hard to repay my debt to her by being a true neighbor to those who come my way.

Your husband is the logical person to go to about it. Ask him bluntly if he cares for the other woman. If he cares for the man he irritated with you because you are jealous over nothing. But it's better to ask for the other woman to go on making yourself unhappy over a thing that probably doesn't exist. **Love the Big Factor** I have a sister 28 years old who is going to marry a man only 25.

Near their front gate stood little Dena and her smaller brother, who pictures a woman on the roof of them. "Here, children, have a nite red apple," he said. "There, children, who had recently moved in to the last house on Billy's property, he took his apple while his big blue eyes say, "You'll not be hexed you wait a few minutes to ente them, will you?" Dena's wondering brown eyes seriously considered the woman's face. "You see it is "Now the idea," exclaimed Mrs. McMillan, "some of this book stuff, I guess. I'll just find out." "Yes," explained the children's aunt, who was caring for them during the six months' enforced absence of their mother, "we have breakfast at eight, for the children, apples at ten, dinner at twelve, apples or some other kind of raw fruit at three and a light supper at six." "Don't they ever want things at other times?" "Perhaps, once in a while, but usually they eat so well at meal times they are not hungry at all." When the children five months ago Dea was five pounds under weight and had the reputation of eating almost nothing. I watched even before her mother left and noticed that the child ate so continuously between meals that, of course, she had little appetite when called to the table. There she expected to be urged to eat and it had become a sort of a game with her. She almost always asked for something later even before we had the dishes washed. So I established this rule and she weighs above the standard now, eats heartily and, although I do not conex nor insist, she knows that she must go hungry until the next regular eating time if she finds eat what she needs, and can one of them. "Well, I can't do things that way, but I don't weight, and they eat any time and anything they want. I also let them have as many things as I want, as much as I want, and I don't believe in trying to raise them by book rules."

Weekly Call VErnon 6017 B-A-T-O B-A-T-O-U-A-L-A Translated from th Thomas Translated from the French and Copyrighted by Thomas Seltzer, New York The sun was descending toward mid- hut at the ends of the invisible earth. He was a kind old man, the sun was, and so just, so impartial. He shone for all living creatures, from the highest to the lowest. He knew neither rich nor poor, neither blacks nor whites. Whatever their lot in life, whatever their hardships, they held them equally well. He shone benignly upon their fields, dispelled the smearing cold fogs, reabsorbed the rain, drove out the dark. Ah, the dark. No matter where the dark lodged, the sun pursued it pitifully. He sat for a while, the dark was the light less than the light. He went his way to comfort the ill with their warmest caresses. His light was health, joy, galey. Yes, the sun, the good young old man, stood for galety, immense, serene, extending its welcome to life. He could regulate and succeed in accomplishing what man could not regulate or succeed in accomplishing. Since endless rainy seasons men had followed men like the flowing water in a river. They had children, who in their turn would have children. The grass which ate the earth, the animals who ate the grass, man who destroyed both grass and animals, all died. Where there had been huts, smoke, life, cattle, fields, villages there would be the brush. And some day the wild brush, too, would be gone. The rivers would dry up. Vain was man's belief that he survives in the children of his children. The oldest families would be extinguished like this. What Loie, however, the good old man, who feared none but 1pou the moon—since he fled the moon at nightfall—and earth, he who was always young and bright, he would shine eternally, as he had shone of old, as he shone today, as he would shine tomorrow; he shone when the worlds had disappeared. O none of the highest rocks of the kaga Kosegamba, Bissibingui luy prone, waiting, when his mouth opened in a pawn, the way a koker (scent), coiled round a branch, will open its jaws and show its venomous fangs as if to bite or swallow the sun. Bissibingui shifted his position, as they still again. That little yellow flee down there, that bare, yellow, shining flee, was the Government post of the Bembe; it was Grimart. the tiny, tiny house, on an elevation at the end of the bare, yellow, shining flee, issued the orders to which—strange as it might—to the Bembe whether or not to submit. Bissibingui's eyes could follow the meanderings of the Bembe by its dark margins of trees which, slowly widening, themselves between the kaga kags. The gendarmes were marching. The noise they made frightened the cibllss (cane-rats), animals with something of the characteristics of both a hare and a rat. The soldiers' feet struck against the stones; dust rose. They marched along, bayonets to shoulders, singing. A descent. Down to the Dela which flowed into the Bembe. No matter. On they went. On and on. Kossegamba was now out of their sight. They passed the village of Yabada and the heights of kaga Makala. Few undulations in the country now, but huts everywhere. The land of the Langbassis, the villages of Lissa. Beyond, more tribes, which Blissbingui no longer knew. Beyond, also mother of all rivers, on which the whites in the season of the high wate canes steered, as far as Mobaye, giant canoes that went without oars and moories for mute tubes of a sort of fat pipe. Blissbingui had visited those parts. They were all rich in wild cattle, and wading, therefore, as hunting-grounds. But it was better to get the gogous wild cattle, buffalo) to stay where they were. They were brush. Dacapo the vilest, the most treacherous of men—the whites excepted. A great boredom went up from the wild cattle, buffalo) to brush. The heat fell upon it like smoke that crowded the barn. For two months daily, from sunrise to sunset, fire had been set to grass and thicket. Fire had two months the dark and thicket up by the flare of the confagrations. And the wind whipped up the flames; the wind carried after the echo of the dry crackling of the flames. Bissbinguil recognized her immediately: It was Tassigluindja, prompt for the appointment which he had found for the appointment to arrange with her the previous day. They shook hands in 'silence and sent themselves side by side. They present they had nothing to fear. Everybody was engaged in the chase. The most populous villages were deserted, save for the old men, the sick, those whose womn, womn in labor, goats and chickens. As for the dogs, all the Djourmas of all the villages had left with their blood circulated. Bissbinguil admired Tassigluindja: How he desired her! The very sunlight itself seemed to stream through his veins veins in which blood circulated. A red cord, bound her forehead, around her throat was a three-stringed necklace of shells, and around her womn's veins was charming. A small bit of wood pierced the lobe of her left ear, another bit of wood her right nostril, a third bit of wood her distinction especially becoming to her. She had flat breasts, large hips, strong limbs, and dainty ankles. Shee. too, was studying her companion, surreptitiously, but sulking enjoyed that strength in suppleness which is the beauty of males. CHAPTER VII T-O-U- By RENE MARAN A Story of the which won th for best No in the French and Thomas Seltser, New Y Story of the French Congo which won the Grand Prix for best Novel in 1922 His frame was perfect, his shoulders and chest fairly snapped with muscles. His abdomen was flat, his legs long, rounded and sinine. He was so feet of foot he could probably outstrip the trumpeting elephant. And didn't Yasigunda know how vitre he was? Didn't the women who had once had him try to keep him by might and insult, insults his brutishness his scorn? "Bissibingui," she said, "I must look out. I must be more careful than ever. The sorcerer declared it was my fault that Batonoula's father died in 1880, and the other two of the two, the men, Bissibingui. Protect me, Bissibingui. Protect me. You are strong. If you do not put yourself between them and me, they will kill me. The incantations have been turned out favorable to me. The other day in my presence they bled a blank hen. Just before she died they left her to herself, and she fell into the water, and she was dead, and she was not quite. And they should look for someone else who had cast the evil spell. But they cannot do this. But they cannot do this. But they cannot do this. So, I must wait to take the test of sons. To be sure I'm not afraid of all the poisons. You'll, for instance, die a lot of it. That's the only way to make it harmless. But even if I'm safe from poison, how can I avoid the other dangers? Won't you wish to stone for their lies by giving me the presents that custom requires in this case. What glys are two? They'd prefer to throw latcha in my eyes. And my eyes would die, because I don't know the antidote for latcha. Then they'd all shout that N'Galaou, but they'd all call me N'Galaou. They'd all go to my guilt. They'd beat me, they'd stone me. All the dogs who hate me be cause I used to repulse them would be dead. But they'd be dead. Sibling, Bissibingui, they will want me to plunge my hands into boiling water. They will put a red-hot iron to my loins. Bissibingui, Bissibingui, I will be dead. But they'd be dead. And then, while I'm still alive, they will bury me beside Batonoula's father, to appease me. But there's no use raising water. I want you! You know I want you, only you! Is it my fault if we haven't been able to belong to each other yet? I am being watched by the other who has the power of watched jealously. I shouldn't be surprised if someone was spying on us at this moment. But there's no use raising water. Even the kaganas big as they are, cannot prevent two rivers from joining. So, if you want me anything like the way I want you, you'll take us your mind, one of your yours—make us your mind." The sun was no longer so hot. The tom-toms and the alphants were sending out invitations. They told Bissingham, that until he arrived Batouina would not set fire to the brush of the hunting courses that lay between the Dacca village of Soumna and the Nyaunga village of Yassigindia continued: "You're angry at me today, aren't you, Bisshingui? But you know I want you more than you can want me. All of my wants you. I belong to you. I belong to you. But I cannot be yours here. Let us run away. Then I will be yours. I will cook for you, wash your clothes, sweep your hut, sow your fields and do if only you and I will go away from here together. Will you?

Bisslingiu got up and stretched himself. The sun of the sun, full of blood, wet darkening on the horizon. The carolling of the birds had ceased.

The AFRO-AMERICAN had called the teachers' attention to the fact that there was still discrimination in teachers' salaries factored by the State and that despite the fact that many North and South have colored policemen, detectives and evaders, Baltimore still refused equally colored men for appoint- nation. Governor's attention was also called to the fact that thousands of colored postal workers in the Prince Edward Hospital would be over to colored management within a year, but that two years had passed and this had not been made up of appointments on Boards of Directors in state institutions was also mentioned. To these inquiries Governor Mitchell made the follow- Not Appreciative I am very far from being unimpressive of the interest so many of the colored voters of this State have show interest and so I have given them political campaigns. I do not agree, however, that the present State administration has been in any way unimpeded of its obligations to the people of this State. I think that the contrary is true. The State is maintaining an excellent institution for the college tutoring institution for the college insured at Crownville. It is reconstructing the college, and is practically $100,000, and I will refer below to other things that are being done in the education department, and we are being made to closed institutions of various fills, and in every way we are trying to be a good service people. Teachers Salaries Deferring specifically to the several points you make, I would say this: While it is true that colored teachers in the convent do not receive equal to those white teachers, yet it is also true that since my first administration began the colored teachers have increased important increase in their salaries than the white teachers have. We have now an eight-month school term for colored children and this is a longer term than is given by any other State which has separate white and colored schools, and it is a longer term that these states give white children. The salaries now paid exclude those paid colored teachers in any other southern state Colored Policemen With respect to the appointment of colored policemen in Baltimore City, I know of no possible way for the Police Department there to officiate. I leave the Police Commissioner free to decide questions of this kind in the way which his observation and experience tell us best for the community. In this connection please let me call your attention to an error in an editorial appearing in The Afro-American on Monday that states that the Ritchie just a few weeks ago said he saw no use in ordering police examinations open to colored people since none of them were to be No such statement was ever made by me. On the contrary, one of the delegation which came to see me asked if colored people could not be permitted to take the police examination and then be simply passed over when the appointments were made. What I said was that this would amount to a subர்fluence which I would not approve, and to a deception of the colored people who might take the examinations, which I would not care to countenance. Pardons And Paroles Your suggestion of discrimination against colored men in the matter of paroles or pardons is entirely unwarranted. Is very parole case is decided by me solely on its own merits, without the slightest regard as to whether the man is black or white. My action in each of the cases you mention was based on what I consider sound reason and justice, and had not the slightest regard to the color of the man. To refer specifically to only one of these cases, when I explained to you the circumstance leading to the passage of Chief Justice Antonin Anapolis to tell me that you had no further objection to make, and that you were satisfied if I am arrested. Notwithstanding that express statement from you to me, you permitted the Afro-American to publish editorials after completing my action in the matter. Henrytown Hospital With regard to the Henryton Tuberculosis Sanitarium, I made no promise that the personnel there should be completely colored within a year within any country. I wrote you on September 27, 1923, that Dr. Cullen intended to have all the nurses colored, except the head employees, with the exception of the doctors and store-room man, would be colored, and that as with experience showed that which employees could be planted in the store-room employees, consistently with the best interests of the colored patients, this would be done. Dr. Cullen told me that Dr. Cullen told me that he knew of only one other separate colored tuberculosis sanitarium in the Virginia, and that was in Virginia, manned by white soldiers and "Tact Is Thing Most Needed Now," Says New Fisk Head Native Africans Flock To The Citties In Order To Learn Baltimoreans Say Value Outweighs Loyalty In Patronizing Race Business Call Vernon 6016 "Tact Is Thing Me Now," Says New Nashville, Tenn.—Tact! That is what is most needed right now," said Dr. Herbert Adolphus Miller, professor of sociology on the Ohio State University. "On Saturday to become executive chairman of the committee on administration at Fisk University for the recognition of the faculty, Dr. Miller, working in cooperation with a committee on administration at Fisk, will take over the duties of Fayette Avery McKenzie who resisted recently following outbreaks by the students and demands for his resignation by Alumni. "Student strikes in schools are not uncommon things and informally, "and are not necessarily alarming. They require tact more than anything else, and tact is what will be needed at Dr. Fisk, and most other things during this year." Dr. Miller is considered one of the outstanding educators of America and his eminence is recognized outside this country. He spent 3 years at Fisk University immediately upon his graduation from Dartmouth College in 1899. Later he took for his degree a fellowship in President Cravath, one of the founders and the first president of Fisk. In 1905 he received his Doctor of Philosophy degree from Harvard since he has taught in Ohlstein College, Olerlin College and Ohio State University. International and race problems have been his special fields. Native Africans F Citties In Order By Loran R.

To the civilized people of such cities as Monrovia, heathenism is an ever pro- The prolific heathen is all about. he brings himself to the centers of society, and sells his children. He comes and his friends and children come faster than they can be worked into civilization of modern. The civilized Liberian is not rich, and from what he has there is a constant demand from the heathen for help. An army must be maintained to peace among the tribes. Native children are taken into the homes and sent to the mission schools where they are taught for the common wealth. The missionary spirit is most prevalent among the Liberians. The chiefs there are some rich natives who send their children to the mission schools and some send them abroad for education. The civilians in the affairs of the government, not in Liberia alone. Among the French he is especially recognized. A native he is now lecturing in America. Baltimoreans Say Outweighs Lo Patronizing I Yes, as a matter of racial self-resp we should patronize our busi- ness. Miss Margaret Williams.. 1523 McCullioh St. Loyalty to Race First Our colored concerns have to buy on a small scale and pay more for their goods. Therefore he has to charge more. I always patronize them even if I do have to pay a fee. And I see no reason I should not. I love to see race, concerns thrive. There is one thing I do not like about our people, and that is that we need to be tough, I need to cooperate to help our Negro enterprises. Of course there are some people we do not want to be near any more than the whites want to be near us. Franklin Dennis, 544 St. Mary's St. Steward of Elsa Home. World Not Pax More If I can get the same value and service at a colored place I think it would be disloyal to them to buy it. I think it would be disloyal to them to buy it. I think I should go to a colored concern and pay more for something of less value just because the colored man is seeing you. Mr. G. F. Carter. 2537 McLothen McLothen. It Is Not Disloyal If I can buy what I want at a colored store, I am always glad to get it if I can get it for a reasonable price and I can afford a nice shirt if I dislike to buy it from whom I can, regardless to color. Mrs. William Waters. 551 Presstman Street. Where Value Is Same I think it nice for those that want to trade with colored concerns but, personally I believe in trading wherever I can get the value of my money regardless of color. It's not helping. I agree concoct to get the trade if he doesn't give service and value, because as long as he can get patronage regardless of these things he will never strive to improve along these lines. Mrs. Edna Carroll, 2360 McCullough Street. By All Means, Yes I am a traveling man but when I have any trading to do, I always patronize the colored business. I get better places than in the Greek and other white places. I patronize our color regardless of what kind of business or how selfish they may be, just travel as a labor agent I see that my race people get good positions. I am a real race man and white nurses. I further wrote you that the State must operate colored institutions in the manner which, according to the most reliable authority and according to experience was best for the welfare and the interests of the colored inmates themselves. This is exactly what the Henton state is doing. Finally, with regard to the appointment of colored persons in colored institutions, I know of no vacancies at this time on any of these Boards. When any person with a religious alumna with the best men I can secure, and in connection I will of course, have a devisability of selecting some colored person or persons. Dr. Miller was organizer and director of the mid-European Union of which President Masaryk of Deceased Janacean Jan Padeerewski was a member during the late war. He was also responsible for the English translation of the Slovakian Declaration of Independence. In 1920 he was the personal guest of the President in the castle at Prague. During the coming year he was involved in several pentagonal European cities. As an author on international problems and affairs, Dr. Miller is well known. He has written "The Book of the War of Traits," and recently "Races, Nations and Chasses." Dr. Miller announced Saturday that he will complete understanding of the critical situation at Fisk and to cooperate with the trustees, faculty and staff of the university. He work out some plan by which Fisk can continue its pre-eminent position in the field of Negro education. "He will be assisted by the following people in administration: Augustus F. Shaw, Professor of Physics; Thomas M. Brumfield, Professor of Philosophy; Elizabeth Collins, Dean of Women." Once a week he will have to return to the Ohio State University for his class work. Many Are Poor But the poverty among the masses, the thirst for a supernatural witchcraft, hovers, like a dark cloud over the small flame of civilization. On market day they swarm into the market, place their hands in the oil, cascade and plantain. They speak their own languages. Many of them know not one word of English or the other, but once they have the waterside they become carcass and before they have gotten outside the city, one cloth draped from the hood is-considered quite proper there. Civilization Needs Help As in all uncivilized peoples, woman holds a lowly place. In one coast young missionaries of workers was shocked at the sight of a girl just tourned to maturity who was wearing only a bright beaded lion cloth. He suggested that some clothes be given her immediately. "It would do no good," he was told. "She is a virgin maid and is left uncovered that some man might be attracted to her and buy her for a wife." Civilization in Africa must be constantly reinforced or it will surely loo its fight against heathenism. Day Value Loyalty In Big Race Business will always be. Arthur A Hayden. Traveling Investigator and Labor Agent. Think It A Duty I think we should patronize our own color even if we have to pay a few cents more, and if we are not benefited by it we are helping the Negro business to grow. As we live, we live to help our race and certainly there is not better way. Mrs. Ida Robinson. 1614 McElderry Street Whisper Remible I usually patronize my race business places, get what I want if they have it and if they do not have it I buy it where ever I can get it. Should Gise Fonal Value I love to help my race by patronizing their business places when I can buy what I want at the same price. Do you think if I can buy what I want at a white man's store for $5 less than I get it for at the colored man's store. I should buy it from the colored man's store. I should say could not. I should say not. If the colored man is not able to compete with the white man in giving service and value; he should not try to handle these goods. Kime, Tennie Duffy, Hair dresser, McEldery. Would Strengthen Industry Yes, I think we should by all means patronize the colored concerns. We would strengthen our race. We should amour our race. It will be better for the coming generation. If we are not benefitted by helping the colored concerns to grow, our children will be benefi- Mrs. L. V. Garrett, 2047 Division Street Would Go Out Of Way I believe in dealing in Negro concerns where there is equal value. I would go out of my way to get what I want from them—and do it. But I don't feel justified in paying any more when I can get the article for her. H. A. Whittington, 1817 Division St. Would Pay More I believe in dealing with my people even if I have to pay a few cents more, because I know my people love me more, and I love them more than I do the white man. All the white man want is the Negro's money. John A. Sharp. 1375 Whatcoat Street. Won't Pay More I believe in patronizing my race concerns when there is equal value, but I don't believe in paying a colored concern 30 cents for something I can buy from some other merchant for cents. Samuel Hutchins. 1108 N. Calhoun Street. I do not answer any questions for publication. I do not wish to be quoted on the subject. BLACK RIVERMAN SAVES 35 FROM WATERY GRAVE Memphis, Tenn.—(By the Associated Negro Press) Extraordinary daring and resourcefulness of the Tennessee Construction Company, was responsible for the saving of the lives of 35 white persons when the government ordered the evacuation of the Mississippi river, off here, with four known dead and missing amounting to fourteen. At the time the Norman capsized, the passengers along in a motor boat. The passengers on the ill-fated vessel had scarcely had time to adjust life preservers before those who had not been rescued by the boat overboard and Lea found them all struggling for bits of debris that would make life-saving rafts. The crew of the boat covered his boat among the people in the water, rescuing the women first and carrying them ashore. Captain Founton of the Norman said fearfully, "Many more would have perished but for the fact that Tom Lea, a Negro, came along with 35 persons. Major Connolly, myself, and two other men, were the farthest down the river and the last persons rescued. Lea W. W. DeBernard, a Chicago engineer and editor, tells of the providential appearance of Lea and his motor boat, and of how it crushed back and forth among the floating survivors, carrying them ashore. To Tom Lea," he says, "probably 90 percent of the survivors owe their lives."

Since advertisements are around the Sun papers, they are increased in saying that the Sun papers and the AFRO-AMERICAK carry more displeasurement than their other contemporaries. Why This Daily and Weekly Lead Eighty-three per cent of the circulation of the Sun papers goes into homes of its readers. Ninety-three per cent of the AFRO-AMERICAK goes into the homes of its readers. The wise advertiser of today has found that the newspaper is likely to do with the pulling power which is highly indispensable to the selling power of the newspaper.

Since she is the prospective buyer of a dress entered into her hands is more valuable than 10 copies sold on a street car or on the corner to a street. That's why the Sun Papers and the AFRO-AMERICAK lead their contemporaries. Reliable Information From These Two Papers The Sun Papers are called Class A papers because they are given credit for them. Not only in the city of Baltimore will you hear that the "SUN papers are jumpsers are among the most important American." This assertion is made all over the country.

White men high in official life and in the business world, the White AMERICAN, White schools and colleges use this famous weekly for purpose of lecture courses in journalism. It is quite coincident that Balkanmen have achieved such a reputation. MORE STRIKE (Continued from Page 1) The students are demanding four concessions. They are: Abrogation of the so-called "20-cut" rule; the restatement of all striking students without penalty; the reduction of compulsory military training and physical education to two years each, and the placing of the Students in control of all social activities. The faculty has rejected these demands and reaffirmed it adherence to the rule suspending students upon the accumulation of twenty students in crashes and physical education classes. Strike Precipitated The strike was precipitated by the suspension of Norris W. Cuney, George H. Dabney, John S. George, Owen S. Edwards and Gilbert L. Edwards for violation of the "20-cut" rule. Prior to their suspension, however, the Student Council appointed G. Glenn Carrington, P. Rev. N. Newman, Owen S. Edwards and L. Lovett as a committee to induce the faculty to reconsider the "20-cut" rule. This committee saw President D. Bruce. He told them that the faculty passed the rule and that they would have to take it up with the business committee of the faculty. Finally, the Student Council committee conferred with the faculty committee, which is composed of Dean Kelly Miller, George W. Cook, D. O. W. Holmes, H. Dewald, D. O. W. Registrar F. D. W. Wilkinson.

Today I am 78, but I don't feel a day over the years. I felt I was an old, 'wornout' man; but now I am enjoying a remarkable 'gland restorer' complex and permanent. May God bless rest on the discovery of such a boon to this wonderful formula, prepared by one of the largest laboratories in the world and on people of all ages and sexes. I am busy and seem to work like magic in its rapidity on people of all ages and sexes. I am not matter what your age or occupation, no matter what you have tried, if you are lacking rest, that we offer you $20 billion every 10 days. The results are not satisfactory and you are not more pleased in every way, it costs Send no money—just your name and address to M. K., Curtin L. Matthorne HIPH., and send the money to be united at occo. Use it according to simple directions. If at the end of 14 days you have no money, send it back and "rejuvenation." Send it back and your money will be refunded without question. This offer is fully guaranteed, so write today and give this "remarkable formula" . .NEW JERSEY E Page Sixteen * ie oe t.

L. Galnes, just arrived from a trip through South America and the West Indies, stated at the A. Preschool's Meeting Monday that the latter country is awakening and looks toward the American Negro for leadership along the lines of industry and business At Kingston, Jamaica. Bishop Gaines is delivered an address at Brown's Hall. He described the conspiracy as being one of poverty, and the conspiracy composed for most part of Negroes and East Indians are employed on the indenture plan. They live in the city, and the indenture which is packed down like cement. It is a poor country and teems with beggars who reap an abundant harvest of indulgent tourists. He asked one of them who asked one of these mendicants why he did not seek employment. He became furiously angry and indignantly said, "Lady, you insult the man, I thought to be an unignible profession. Sars Monkey Fine Dish At Port of Spain, Trinidad.

He reports that the flesh is tender and very pala- At Georgetown, British Guiana, Bishop Gaines held the annual conference and for the first time in 50 years held a conference from those countries. While there, he held a service for the entire colony, regardless of denominations, when he received received as "the colony Bishop." Government Indifferent The greatest part of the West Indies is under British rule and the government is satisfied with the appalling conditions that obtain. There are no race enterprise, no incentive to work, and the usual working wage is one dollar per week and twenty-five cents more in regarded as high wages. The small sum of 20 cents is paid for salaries. In reply to a question concerning the resources of the country, Bishop Gaines said that the country is rich in minerals and forests, in the forests; the soil is fertile and suited for raising of coffee. The country is also rich in minerals and forests; the making of porcelain, is furnishing a profitable source of wealth to enterprising corporations. According to the Bishop it is great field for mining and will return rich profits in future years. Bishop Gaines also stressed the need of a Bishop there and said that South America; and the West Indies needed a missionary; not as other health country but they need to be taught Race consciousness. They know about Christ as well as the missionaries themselves. They do not believe good comes from anyone except whites.

J. H. Tayler, Mt. Simon. The sermon this week was supplied by the Rev. Albert J. Green, Pastor First Baptist Church. A teacher is one engaged to instruct, to inform, to deliver; one who tells, who gives intelligence and makes plain the subjects taught. The words teacher, Rabbi, and Master are frequently interchanged because they carry the same significance of ability and authority. The teacher is also responsible for compromise His divinity. His teaching was not only instructive, but was also creative, His sublimine words do not enlighten the intellect alone; but enrich the heart, and strengthen the will. Teaching is of no avail unless the student has a disposition to learn. In order that you might learn your subject, pay the price. There is no need for a mental development. Christ, in the fullness of His strength as God and Man with infinite power, wisdom and grace, gave as His first fundamental lesson, the virtues of a good teacher, as well as a good student. These virtues are: meekness and lowiness of heart. As a reward for faithfulness, he offers as our diploma, or certificate, denoting our association with Him, the great To those who have entered that school and accepted His teaching, let me remind you that God for their deliverance from vain striving in darkness and uncertainty. May you grow in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, to whom be glory, and honor and dominion forever, Amen. CHURCHES WHATCOAT M. E. CHURCH 11:00 A. M.-Sermon by the Pastor 12:00 P.

The recalcitrant trade organizatioay must be shown the folly of their untenable position of segregation and dis- crimination." With this as the keynote of his remarks. T. Arnold Hill, “Director of the Department c¢ Industrial Relations of the National Urban League, addressed ‘the Executive Council of the American Federation of Lubor in Washington, on Thurs- diy, fast, ‘The newly elected prest- deni, William Green, who succeed- ed Samuel Gornpers’ and the tull membership of the Council, con- sisting of ten heads of internation- als were present. Culling ‘ttention to te Insepar- ability of the Interests of white and colored workers, Mr. Hill said: “Whatever is fair and profitable for our nation’s workers is fair and pro- titable for Negro workers. What in- jures one injures the other. If white men must work for @ livable wage. then Negroes must have the same Uvable wage. If white men receive high wages and Negroes do. not, then sooner of jater no one will What Is true of wages is equally teue of ail the benefits which labor is now receiving and may hereafter acquire.” Broke Steel Stelle When told by members of the Council that the American Federa- tion of Labor and for 40 years de- clared equality. with the Tanks of the labor movement. Mr, Hil re- minded them that organized labor claims tht the Negroes broke the Steel Strike and would break others as they accumulate strength and confidence, unless they. were made partleipants within Iabor's ranks. Continuing he said. “More than 38 per cent of the colored workers were engaged in manufacturing and mechanical pursuits ih 1920 as compared with 12.6 in 1910 and in Chicago alone tt is estimated that Industrial workers inereased “from 27,000 in 1910 to 70.000 In 1920," The purpose of Mr. Hill's. visit was to ask that Anierican Federa- Yon of Labor to join the League in formulating « workable program that would insure confidence in tho Integrity of the lMbor leaders and & more democratic stand on “the past of Inbor organizations, That fs one of the main objects of the Na- tional Urban League's new Depart- ment of Industrial Relations which Mec; HON ene: No Labor Expansion é Expected In Detroit Detroit, Mich.—John C.

Mr. Ogden vehemently denied reports that this section was rapidly becoming colored and urged the Board to retain the buildings for white students until it did become 80. His address was, full of ardent race hatred and reference was made also to "Rikes" an epithet applied to Jews real estate dealers who sold Negroes houses. School No. 15 at Carrollton avenue and Saratoga street, is a two story brick structure erected in 1873. It accommodates 390 pupils. At present there are 384 pupils occupying the building. School No. 75, Carrollton avenue and Leington street, is 23-room apartment brick building erected in 1860, and accommodates 625 pupils. At present about 400 pupils attend. Mrs. Bam nschmidt Speaks Mrs. Marie O. H. Baumerschmidt, Secretary of the Public School Association, impartially defended both sides. She stated she had considered the matter from the standpoint of school children in the coloured people including neighborhoods in which they were not wanderer, she urged the Board to take into serious consideration the over-crowded condition of the children at School 100 and the children before the opening of schools next September. She explained that the schools in question were located on the extreme edges of the white and colored belt, that is, in the section where the white belt began, a similar location that of the Western High School. She suggested that the white children be housed in the school buildings located more into the white section and turn the school nearest the coloured section over to children. A committee composed of Mrs. Louis H. Levin, Mrs. John Wesley Brown and Theo. E. Strus was appointed to investigate the matter. Resignation Accepted Following the executive session of the Board, Secretary Roche tated that the Board had accepted his resignation of the newly appointed supervisor, Mr. Charles W. Wilmolds.

GOVERNOR AND MAYOR ENDORSE A. P. A. WEEK GOVERNOR AND MAYOR ENDORSE A. P. A. WEEK Go-to High School, Go-toCollege Campaign Receives City and State Approval PROGRAM BROADCAST OVER RADIO STATION Campaign To Culminate In Monster Mass Meeting At Union Baptist Church Governor Albert C. Ritchie and Mayor Howard Jackson in statements sent the local chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity this week put themselves on record as approving the Go-to-High School, Go-toCollege campaign. This education week is being celebrated all over the country and in Baltimore it is being staged by the local branch of which P. D. G. Pennington is president and S. S. Booker, chairman of the local committee. Governor Ritchie's Statement Governor Ritchie said: "I am glad to note that the colored children have so much interest in the education of their children. It is a pleasure for me to lend my approval to any movement that seeks of develop the youth first by showing him wherein education is fundamental, and second, by showing him that by stricting school he increases his efficiency as a citizen." "It is a pleasure for me to endorse any movement that stands for the betterment of any racial group. Education is fundamental and absolutely essential to the growth and development of any people. Too many boys and girls leave school before finishing the 5th grade and any movement that centers its attack upon this vulnerable condition, the support of every citizen. I therefore heartily approve of the "Go-to-High School, Go-to-College Campaign now being inaugurated."

DOUGLA'S ESTABLISHES INDEPENDENT CHURCH DOUGLA'S ESTABLISHES INDEPENDENT CHURCH Cosmopolitan Community Methodist Is Name Of New- est Institution loh Baptist Cosmopolitan Community Methodist Church is the name of the new independent institution established by the Rev. Frederick Douglass, former pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church last week, preaching at Shiloh Baptist Church in the place of the Rev. W. W. Allen, pastor, who is on a southern trip attempting to recover his health. The Rev. Mr. Douglass announced the organization of his new church Sunday. Explaining why he left the A. M. E. Church to establish one of his own Douglass said. "I am acting practically in self-defense. Bishop W Albert Johnson kicked me out and left me without an appointment. "I was down in Cairo. Thi. doing very well when the bishop sent for me to come to Bethel and do a work which on one else could do. "The people would not receive me and told the bishop to his face. He, the bishop, got on the train and went back to Philadelphia to attend an appointment although last week he did send me an appointment as conference evangelist. "Acting on his authority I have established the Cosmopolitan Community Methodist Church, but the bishop would not sit in it for will it take me his years or more to make it what it ought to be a great church and the bishop could move me tomorrow if he so saw it." Rev. Mr. Douglass preached Sunday and night, before a crowded audience at Shiloh Baptist Church. In the morning he said he accepted 30 members in the new independent church and in the afternoon 10 additional. Following a sermon Sunday night he asked me were any who were unite with Shiloh Church. One person came forward. Then he asked if there was any one who wished to unite with his church and 21 persons came forward. Atogether, he declared had some members enrolled with other leaders. The congregation was asked for a collection for Shiloh Baptist Church and secondly a collection for the Cosmopolitan Church. Douglass Not Kicked Out The Rev. John S. Collins, presiding elder of the Baltimore District, told the AFRO-AMERICAN Monday that the Rev. Frederick Douglass had not been kicked out of that nomination by Bishop Johnson of Alen Church, attempting to get the congregation to accept him when he arose in the meeting, handed in his resignation and walked out. The bishop went to his home in the attempt to reconcile the difference but failed. "I asked him if he would accept the position as presiding elder and his own words were "I wouldn't have it on a platter." Ministers Meet The A. M. E. ministers in session Monday named a committee consisting of the Rev. J. G. Martin, the Rev. W. H. Manooko and the Rev William Thomas to see the Rev Frederick Doughars to him to nominate "Every pastor who has left our church to form an independent institution has regretted it," the Rev Mr. Martin declared.

NO POLICEWOMEN IN SIGHT YET: GAITHER Appointment of Additional Women Admits Legislature "It is my expectation to administer the affairs of the Baltimore Police Department with equal justice to every citizen with regard to rice or meat," said General Charles D. Gather, to a representative of the AFRO this week. General Gather has been re-appointed' by Governor Ritchie as head of the local department for the next six years. Policewomen Discussed When asked what was the immediate possibilities for the appointment of one or more policewomen to work for the protection of colored women and girls as the white policewomen now work for the white policewomen, the Chief Justice that white the whole matter depended upon whether the next session of the State Legislature would appropriate additional funds, he was personally of the opinion that there must be some steps taken in this direction. When asked why this department should use such a present fund in making such apperence he stated that the matter was one purely of legislative dealing and that the present appropriation only provided for five and that these five had already been appointed. General Gaither called attention to the help he has received from colored groups in promoting good citizenship and caffirmed his intention to deal absolute fairness to the colored group.

YOURS TRULY, GEO. T. GANT 11 HOLD FATHER IN HAMMER DUEL DEATH Officers Say Alleged 'Father' May Prove To Be Jealous Lover DAUGHTER SAYS DAD IS INNOCENT MAN Investigating Strange Angles Of Tragedy, Girl May Live Conflicting circumstances surrounding the tragic duel in which Jesse Tracy, 618 Conway street, was killed and his sweetheart, Miss Hattie Simms, seriously wounded, caused police officers to ask that James Simms, 50, father of the girl, be held for further investigation. Information reaching the department is to the effect that James Simms might have killed young Tracy out of jealousy, it being rumored that he is not the real principal father of the girl. These rumors caused the officers to question the theory that the two had engaged in a duel which was first believed. Two hammers, each blood-stained, found near the body of the dead man and the unconscious woman, at first corroborated the heath that the pair had had an altercation. Father Innocent. Miss Bessie Simms, 13, a daughter of the accused father, told an AFRO reported that she believed her father was innocent of anything connected with the crime. She also vehemently denied the assertion that James Simms was not the father of her sister. When asked if she could throw any light on the crime, the girl replied that she could think of no one who held any enmity against Tracy or the unfortunate sweetheart of the dead man.
