Plain St. Ilmena, Sept. 19 The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly HOWARD UNIVERSITY HAS RECEIVED ITS LAST FEDERAL APPROPRIATION SAYS EXPERT DURKEEISM AND HOWARD CNI VERSITY By Alumags The summit of Howard University art chamerging for a Congressional investigation at the institution. President Durkee denounced that he welcomes hope, that Congress will accept the combined invitation of the accusing and the accuser to turn on the searchlight. The care, however, must be employed to direct Congress to the real source of the trouble at Howard. No matter how pathetically feeble Dr. Durkee's qualifications may be, Congress cannot be expected to give such a matter serious consideration; for such a matter comes solely under the Board of Trustees, and may not help him hopelessly inexperienced, they could not remove him. Trustees Above Have Power Sight must not be lost of this exceedingly important fact. The sole power to remove Dr. Durkee is lodged in the switch body he is a member, with the privilege of a veto. No matter, therefore, how sympathetic Congress may be with infuriated sufferers. Dr. Durkee will and pleasure of his colleagues. Salary Injustices Again, the salary injustices cannot be recalled by Congress, no matter how big the gains or how big the losses. The annual appropriations carry a certain jump stim for teachers' salaries, but no increase for administrators to advertise among the several instructors. Congress has never approved a salary increase, much as Howard is not a federal institution. The Federal Government merely acts the part of a generous benefactor, regardless of what politician Rewarding Favorites Attention, of course, may be called to the methods employed at Howard to reward favorites and to discuss the importance of narration may impress Congress with the need of g system to protect teachers, but the cure is ignite existing conditions. Congress has no right to say what a teacher's salary, at Howard University, shall be. Of course, the most college professors, the most shameful action ever taken by Howard University, can be reversed by Concern. But about the action and may even feel warmly about the outrage, but they can take no action in the matter, because they are someone also in this matter. Howard Charter In brief, the charter of Howard University gives the Board of Trustees absolute control over the administration and neither Congress nor any agency of the Government has any authority over the Board of Trustees. They create, eat and per-mentate body. They elect their own colleagues and reappoint themselves. As a rule, appointment on the board consists of appointing a "poemite's life," though now and then a rare case of resignation is reported; and less seldom a refractory memoir loses the authority of his fellows to govern the rule. Ollcureus In respect to their self-creating power and their undisturbed independence, the trustees of Howard University form an alliance not unlike their ancient prototype. Where they hold them accountable for their news, they legislate as they please, make no explanations of their programs and laugh to scorn critics of their policies. Each piece they granted Dr. Durkee permission to accept the presidency of the Curry School of Expression, let him use as much of Howard University's time as he pleased, and covered their lips on his insult to colored people. In his annual report he merely reminded them that they gave him permission to hold the presidency of that school and informed them that he had resigned. No Reprlmand If there was ever a time in the history of Howard University when the trustees were justified in reprimanding the trustees who justified law as the trustees were justified in reprimanding their president. It when they learned that their president, the administrator of a university, a school that does not admit colored students. They remained perfectly silent, thus indulging the policy of Jim-crowism in its most pernicious form. We celerize, with our eyes groundward cast, that in that group that gave Dr. Durkee permission to indulge him to account for his action, there was a number of colored trustees. The race problem would have been soiled years ago if the white man had not hit upon the innocent people to fight colored people. For those colored members of the Board of Trustees who have sat siphon-like during all this humiliation that their race has been sufferer and vindictive president, whose talents have just been discovered by them as more fitting for pulpit and the platform, there can be no ignorance of their role in their race who put manhood above any other consideration. The most prolonged strike that Howell has ever faced in the history of any American institution, was reported to the trustees by the president, in some such language as this: "At last I am a engineer at Howard University." Only Report That was the only report required of him. The sympathetic president of the board is quoted as saying that strikes are so common in education that virtually a part of a college education; and the matter was dismissed. He saw nothing especially serious about it—surely no reflection upon Dr. Durkee. Every act of Dr. Durkee is accepted with praise in advance. At the meeting he said he would be going to Dr. Durkee's own words he advised the board not to give him any vote of confidence, for he knew exactly how well he stood with them. All he needed was a little more patience, and he insisted immutably, so they granted him this power, labelling it "economic nec- sity" for sanction to the expe- rient's receipt. Weakest President Today, Dr. Durkee, admittedly the weakest college president in the country, wields more power than any other educational administrator in the country. He will, with fines, salaries and increment arbitrarily, and nominates the trustees with whom he associates as a member. We will may he calculate, and nominate, the trustees to correct this condition, which no democratic form of government can justify appropriating the people's money to perpetuate the sledges with which he accrues the accurate aim, upon the board of Trustees. Such a board must not be permitted to exist by virtue of federal financing. An annotated bill would have justified its right to exist: in modern America, it is an anomaly. Three Ways There are three possible ways for Congress to be persuaded to deal with this undemocratic body that is behind the board room—first to change the charter of Howard University to empower the alumni to elect a certain number of the trustees, second to remain members; second, to take the institution over and run it as a federal unit; and third, to cut off the appropriations altogether and thus give the trustees full independence. Too Numerous The writer will not presume to limit the number of trustees. To him, however, the present young army seems too numerous to be enumerated. The number is decidedly towards smaller and less unready boards, but just now the number is not the pressing consideration. Any institution that is maintained by the funds ought not to have such an air-tight board. There should be some power over the trustees to whom they should look for their recount. The trustees should also be responsible solely to their colleagues! Look To Record American government is based upon the principle that every public servant of city, state, or country must be trained to defend and relict. It is not what he thinks of his acts, but rather what his constituents think of them. All alumni should elect from among their own number trustees to administer the affairs of their university, be responsible for creating and protracting policies that are in harmonic accord with the prevailing alumnt thought. This method is used by it. The university is a vital principle in the successful administration of such institutions. Dr. Lowell A few years ago, Dr. Lowell trained an undergraduate University, which was immaculately integrated with a little southern virus and broke out with Negro viruses, which was more virulent. The raised is protest against the policy, and the trusts promptly settled the matter. The trusts must necessarily pay serious attention to the graduates of This does not mean that whenever an alumnus is blessed with a degree, he must enter into legislation just to please him. It means that when the alumni who have been inducted into the reform or protesting action, it is about time for the trustees to pay attention to their print. Any board but one elected by itself is pretty much dead. Seven Years During the seven years of Dr. Durkee's university, the incumbent of Howard University have as a body, done all in their power to make him a success in his position. His successes from them. If they have not been politically active in his cause, they certainly have been passive in hindering him. From this position of positive fraternity, they have pledged jim, they have now developed a justifiable indignation which they declare will end only in his resignation. Many locals that backed Dr. Durkee's political ambitions are now demanding his resignation. Trustee Error While this remarkable change is going on, the trustees are paying no attention to the annual, reliquary upon their own independence, and that they cannot be driven to do anything that they do not wish to do. They feel that if they can put Dr. Durkee off the scene of motion for a longer period of time, they have never made a more serious error in their life. Snooksmall One very prominent spokesman of the administration has said that in the proposed bill, the representative alumnus or citizen. No offense should be taken by the host of alumni and representatives, but their opinions frankly and honestly. At such times as these, passionate language is likely to escape the attention of the public on either side, with the less responsible language naturally coming from the side that is on the run. A frightened sense of control of his voice and tongue. Doesn't Care The point is that a self-perpetuating Board of Trustees does not care what the alumni think. He is the University have no particular interest in what the alumni are thinking. Only what Dr. Durkee wants has any merit with them. They have the university demigod, and he acts well his role. The Government that provides the funds for Howard's maintenance ought to have something to say about the successes shall be to direct the affairs. As patron, the Secretary of the University should scrutinize nothing to with the internal administration of Howard. Congress has evidently overlooked this feature, but continues to apprehend that the University must make a study of the bigness of the present Howard and the need of new policies and regulations to supplement those that have been in place. The first appropriations were made. Rollles The fear that Howard University will fall into politics, if Congress has anything to do with the appointment of trustees, is the one humorous reflection on an otherwise goofy question? The kind of politics being played, now at Howard is far below even the "peanut" grade. If Congressional oversight is going to bring any policies into Howard, conditions will have to imitate the actual conditions could grow worse. Bureau Of Education The Bureau of Education ought to be competent to select some of the noteworthy cases spite the noteworthy fact that the Federal Government provides just one-half the remuneration for which the federal funds provide for the President of Howard University. The Commissioner may be deprived of higher salaried official competent trustees. Even if the Commissioner should return the very same trustees, they would then be responsible to some authority. The complaint just now is not with the personnel, but with the government. Sound Conclusion It is a sound conclusion that the Government will never take Howard University's role in the school of religion appended; and it would not accept the university even as a gift, as long as a denet remains. Rejection, however, is cast upon this position. Most universities carry duties. They are rather expected to. As long as a university can point to a progressive physical growth to accredit it, the university attaches to the fact. It is only when defends pile up and no physical progress is noted, that complaints are justifi- Not Likely The fact remains, however, that Congress is not likely to adopt Howard University. The professors to be sure, have, will be sure, the change, thinking that the change will eliminate Dr Jurkee. Now that the trustees have found work for his pulpit and platform术, the professors will not so much as provide so they may not be just as eager for government control. If the appropriations for Howard University can be legalized without complete government control, as amended as described, this arrangement will be better for Howard. From complete independence to government control is too big a jump for the first move. Last Federal Aid It is vaguely possible that Howard University has received its last federal appropriations. Congressman Ben Sasse, who has been the occurrences of the past year, A strike at an institution maintained by federal funds makes oratory for who are not in favor of such support. Before the strike-publicly faded away, the attempt to shelter Deans from the publicity again; and when a soothing salve was rubbed on the wounds thus caused, the dismissal of four professors for "economic resource"plicity that any university could have Doctors Select Philadelphia, Pa Chicago, IL.—The National Medical Association in 30th Annual Session here, selected Philadelphia for among the officers elected were: Dr. W.

SEVEN DIE IN EXPLOSION Uniontown, Ala.—Seven men were killed Thursday when a boiler at ginnery of Archer & Epes 'exploded at Dayton, near here. How Old Is It? "A three-year-old," the dealer replied, and the dealer buyers interest flurried. "But look at the mileage." But look at the mileage. And when the buyer gave him the mileage, the salesmen he made the purchase, is not so decisive as the unguarded transportation a car contains. In the car, many cars in the classified "automobiles" in the classified "automobiles" in the classified service. Every opportunity is given purchasers to satisfy the buyer as to their values. Here's a profitable suggestion for those who want a good car at a price. THE AFRO A Market Place for the People Read for Proft—Use for Results Baltimore, Md. All this noise, regardless of who's right or wrong, is sure to be echoed in the chambers of Congress. **Less Harmful** Colored people, who have been following this titanic ship between two cities, Durkelsum and Opuniken in their feelings that the loss of Congressional appropriations would be less harmful to Howard University than the protraction of Dr. Durkelsum. On the other hand, Dr. Durkelsum is determined to defy the alumni and stick, even if he goes down with the lost appropriations. His car is dead to him, and he feels that if he must, he wants the greatest amount of harm to befall Howard University. He is looking to sympathizers in Congress, as well as in the city, to help Howard appropriations go with him. Most men similarly situated under hot fire would have prepared their resignations in preparation to hang on until the last trumpet blow. He apparently feels that his absence from the university for a prolonged period met with the affirms, will save him from the wrath of the colored people. This is his solution, he will learn his mistake. Internal disaster is not the only grievance upon which the colored people are combined against him. His gross insult to them, by taking sides with race prejudice, is one of his most unpardonable offenses. Cant't Overlook Neither the students of Howard University nor the colored people in general can ever overlook this insult, their presence on the hew he stands on race prejudice. He openly adopted the policy of excluding blacks when whites subjected to this insult in the City of Boston. How can he possibly have any more influence at Howard University? What student can respect Luckily he is not trying to reconcile his conflicting attitudes towards the race — friendly in Washington and hostile in Boston. He is merely ignoring this incongruity, but he must be told again and again. In no uncertain words, that when he accepted the presidency of the Negro-hating school of expression, that very minute he wrote his resignation from the presidency of Negro-loving Howard University. Only Investigation The only Congressional investigation, therefore, that will look forward to the cure of the trouble at Howard University must be centered upon the charter of Howard. That charter must be amended to provide for a trustee board modeled after a modern demoratics type rather than after an ancient oligarchy. The next article will give an interpretation of the sudden enthusiasm for publicity, with some respect to the expert's report. Glite Lad Held While Police Seek Race Girl Cairo, Ill.—A well known white boy, college student and graduate of the Cairo High School, where he lived with the wounded team in $5,000 ball, charged with the murder of Frances Cherry, a young colored woman who disappeared from her room on July 25th, and been held from since then. The warden charged him, but he sworn out by the judge of the girl. The boy admitted taking out an automobile on the night the girl he was driving subsequently found on the car, which the boy explained by saying he cut his head trying to lower the wind shield. He denies ever having known the girl he was driving stories he told of his something else right of the crime are being investigated by the police. The Cairo branch of the National Association of Colored People has announced of Colored People has an enhancement of treason to act in behalf of the girl's mother, and has offered a reward of $160 for information leading to recovery of the girl's body, in addition to $200 for the accused by the County Commissioner.

COLORED OPERATORS GET TWO MORE LOCAL THEATRES Rage Four JOHNSTONE AND LAYTON STAR ON LONDON STAGE "Alabama Bound" Is Now Sung All Over British Isles BOOKED FOR YEAR NOW AT COLISEUM Artists Tell How They Get Along Without Cork and Monkey Shines London, England.—The hard- est time I have ever had get- ting an interview was one with Layton and Johnstone, whose work for the last year on the vaudeville stores has been the talk of London. Working at Cafe de Paris in Piedilou cir- cule, the dent's famous supper clubs) and then play- ing at the top of the stairs, the Collisum, as well as for m numerous private parties has made them al- mous muscled ordinary mortals. A. S. S. "I phoned, everything else only to reach them finally by John P. Davis is waiting at the big stage door at the Collison inn. But who are Layton and Johnstone? They are billed as "America's Tallest Entertainer." Turin Layton will be a partner in the famous duo of "Creamer and Layton." His is the son of the late C. and a graduate of the old "M Street High School (Now Dunbar). In 1908, he studied music in Paris and later graduated from the University of Chicago. His musical compositions are known in both hemispheres for their artistry and finesse. Charence Johnstone is a composer and musician that New York has produced. His melo whartone has been heard in the reception halls of some of the finest music houses and wealthiest New York families. Across The Footlights My interview with these men really started across the footlights. I sat in the orchestra of the Coliseum. Layton Johnstone um, which is the biggest wunderville house in Europe, and has the largest revolving stage in the world. He is a very good writer yet yout, finally to catch my breath as amid deftening applause. I heard the artistry of these two singers immaculate in evening dress and obnoxious, second of the kindness. They held their audience through twelve minutes of matchless singing. "Such a wonderful tone," murmured him, "and the act ended as it had begun, amid repeated mutilation. And it took a rather odd course for them to perform an instrumental effect of a group of gymnasts that followed. They really weren't going to see them. They heard 'Layton' and 'Johnstee'; that was enough." Back Stage When it was over, I went back stage and we talked over cold cream and make-up. So our can be surprised by the stance until they meet their face to face. Despite the fact that they are among the highest paid artists in England, they are not at the Coliseum for over eighteen weeks: something heretofore unknown for an American act. Elise Janss, to open the premier theatre of London, the Empire, they became a bigger hit than this star, whom they were supposed to sup- "Alabama Bound" "Alabama Bound," and other popular songs may be found all over England, Scotland and Wales, subtropically, and Johnstone, with the picture of them on every follo. They are the only American actors who have been involved in the industry of labor, to work for one year. And this, despite the combined efforts of many theatrical magnets the formerly of the theater, it was Will Marion Cook and his Southern Syncopaters, who took London by "storm." a lst year theatrical Mills and Round Hayes. This year, it is "Layton and Johnstone." Not Coming Home I asked them if they were coming to America and got the decided answer: "No, at least not until the Negro actor is assured fair play." They have refused offers to bills on KKK and several other American concerns. "How does it happen that you never use cork or do black face stunts with Negro dialect?" I was going without it. The public cares more for music than art, and for us to go in, for low comedy would be to low or our art. It is just this attitude that has worked for these two the uniform respect of the English actors, managers and audience. Going To Egypt At present they are topping a bill at the Alhambra, after which Mr. Layton and his wife will vacation in Spain, and Mrs. Johnstone expect to visit the former's mother in New York. More artists of this kind in London are to much to counteract the ever-growing prejudice there. MAY SING IN GRAND OPERA THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY Washington, D.

The stand taken by the members of the association is that with such a large number of union men on the ground, the members are invisible "standing pad" and placing their men before competition became too keen, bringing with it a further reduction in salary in salary below the $48.50 per week, the union scale.

This narrative begins with some excellent comedy atmosphere, the dramatic interest deepening as the reels unfold. We see the unsurprising Lamont, handsome and debonair, a real "spite of dames," winning the affections of Mabel Welbon, the rich young widow, whom he abandons for her daughter, meanwhile carrying on an illicit love affair with Hurriet, a dashing specimen of the clapper genus, which develops, working up to a really tremendous score, when Mrs. Welbon, disgorging that Lamont is involved with a third woman, as well as having betrayed her and her daughter, shoots him dead. She is duly teed and acquitted by a jury, and it is needless to say that one's sympathies are with the defendant from beginning to end.

Brown of the Wilberforce College had was the sensation of 1923, and now he was 1924. And would undoubtedly have won again last year, but for the year's suspensions of the association. The defeat had something to do with the result, but in the main it was a prolonged and hard fought contest between an elite stroke team and an elite stroke and an elder opponent advocate supreme of the driving game. Thompson had everything. His grip on the ball strokes just skimmed the net. Overhead and back hand, the new champion was unbeatable. Brown used all his strategy and then gave up.

By Lawrence J. Sweeney Boston, Mass. — Theodore (Nigro) Flowers, middleweight exponent, gave jock Malone, white, the snappy St. Paul boxer, the worst kicking the latter ever received in a gliston ring before 12,100 pounds. He showed the of Saffold A. A., at Braves Field, Friday. The black panther was never so buster. He was relentless in his attack. He fairly deluded the eleven Malone with right and left gloves, it seemed that one or the other of gloves was in Malone's face constant upon his body and side if the head. Possibly one round, the fourth was even, but in all the others the defender was in Malone, handsided by a pair of fist hands, fought as bose he could against the blizzard of blows. He constantly tried to whip over the defender, his grip of dropping his oppressor and on two or three occasions he did connect solidly, but never quite forceful enough, for the tiger-man always come back with half-like smashes to his head, and forced Jack to clinches. Superiority Demonstrated Against a less brilliant performer, he waged a long wicket on St. Paul wizard looking good. But in front of Mr. Flowers, he looked anything but the Malone, who wounded his wickets in two years in preparation here. Jock Malone fought and lost, and in so doing, he lost few friends. He missed many games, but who can be hurt here to subdue the superman of the middleweight class. The bout was disappointing, however 'disappointing because of the Tiger's marked superiority over the one man who it could make him extend himself. Flowers Busy At Once Malone advanced to the fray and jaunty as ever, although outweighed 5-1-2 pounds. Flowers lost no time and immediately, Malone countered with a left hook to the short ribs, and it was patient to all that Joel had done. In a furious exchange, Malone tugged his right to the car and throughout the round blocked beautifully. The second round bristled with a fierce struggle with men, but the Atlanta boxer was shooting both hands to body and face with such bowling rapidity and banged his right and left Flowers' body. At one period the Tiger sent three left books to the side of Malone's head, throwing the Georgia "Tornado" hit Malone from all angles in the third until Malone walked into a cimbe, stomach as he chased the Southern around the ring in the fourth round, the crowd rooting for him, the crowd leading before the was half over. Right Glove In Action The "deacon" kept his right glove almost constantly in Jock's face in body as Mook closed it in clench. The latter smacked his right sharply t his rivals' jaw and again the crowd yelled approval. At the bell, Horses had his opponent on the ropes. Jock gave the fans a chance to unlose pount enthusiasm in the crowd, and the right hook to the jaw, following a succession of left fists to the face and ribs. The Tiger backed away, and the round by slight margin, although showing evidences of tiring, right hook cut Malone's left eye in the seventh round and the Tiger blistered him with right and left hooks to the face, but in the middle of the new lease of life at the opening, whipping his right to the Tiger's jaw with enough force to stagger him. Again the Tiger fought back directly, again carrying the session. The ninth was a repetition of the others, with Flowers out in froth. It was the same in the 10th round.

Y. — Jack Dempsey is not the only dolog among the men with colored box fighters. So much newspaper space has been given to Dempsey and his dologing tactics that padded his overcrowded the other side. The same state of affairs exists in the middle-weight, wetterweight, bantamweight and the dyweight divisions. It is impossible to get any of the so-called top-notches in the same ring with Allentown Gans or Tiger Woods. The only refried to meet Gans since they met last January and has turned down three offers from New York promoters for an outdoor bout this Omit Flowers Greb has hung out the "please omit Flowers" sign in front of his house, and he has been in to do with the Georgia Lions since that night in Fremont, Ohio Greb, Jackson, Slattery, Delancey and Brown all are refused to mingle with Gans. San Francisco—It was announced here this week that Jack Dempsey will defend his world's heavyweight championship title against Harry Wills, the "Brown Panther," next fourth by Hey Tey Benson Dempsey's secretary. "Dempsey and Wills have been matched for three weeks, Benson and Hey Tey Benson for super men. "And this is the first official announcement of such a match, which will be held in some Eastern ring that will be named at." "Tell you how the matching of Dempsey and Wills came about," Benson continued. "Wizardsman, the champion, express purpose of signing him for a contest with Wills. Dempsey told Floyd that he would fight Harry next hour of the day provided certain requirements would be met. These requirements consist of a certain amount of money to pay for the fight, forcet before the fight takes place. "Fitzsimons suggested that a meeting be held in the Morrison Hotel in Chicago on September 17 and that he would visit Mellins and Fitzsimons present, on who his millionaire backer is and post the money." The men were boxing furiously when the final bell rang. Hall Loses Joe Hall, white, Buffalo lightweight, making his first Boston appearance, lost a close decision to the Tiger Flowers outfit, but to Hall, now connected with the Tiger Flowers outfit, was for merely a pupil of the Jimmy Slattery school in Chicago, similar to that of Slattery. For two rounds Hall outgathered the popular Tod, but after holding his fast rival even in the third round, Hall was able to gradually overcome Hall's lead, until at the end of the eighth round, the officials decided in his favor, after remarkably close and interesting interaction, Joe O'Connor referred the main event. Jerry Moore handled the preliminaries, John Glockin and W. Jeffrey Burras, the judges, and Arthur Burra timer.

Black Bill weighed 101 pounds and his rival tipped the beams at 10:34. The semi-final ten-rounder was very short and to the point.

Too much Britt in the first game and an overload of Strong in the second, sided by timely hitting and consistent holding were the factors that set the Brooklyn Royal Giants on the rear side of both games of those goals with the Black Sox last Saturday. The scores were 3-2 in the opener, and 4-1 in the last edition. About 3,000 fans witnessed the contests. The Sox still have a man's chance at the pennant, but Pete Hills cannot afford to lose any more. Beckwith Not Missed Beckwith wasn't missed in short step as George Flah made several seemingly impossible plays that brought him everlasting fame. Although he went hitless, his kick was nothing more significant and most important, part in the Sox winning both contests. Britt's pitching was superb. The Giants were more piggies in his hands. He only allowed them six hits and struck out nine. Not only did he cover himself with plexy twirler, but he won his game by stealing second, third and home in the fifth "Heavy" Johnson Flournoy, who did mound duty for the New Yorkers, was touched for nine hits, two being doubled by Wilson and Johnson. He was officially credited with the first hit inning with two out, Johnson was walked and scored on Wilson's double to center field. The Giants overcame this in the fourth with two runs, Smith hit pass and was forced by Brooks. Brett Janssen was free by ticket to Dugbess. Janssen was fanned but Scott Searn a clean single to right field which scored Brooks and Dugbess. "Heavy Johnson pulled Sporman out when the big left heeler batted against fence and pulled down a long line." Bett Steals Home Britt deadlocked the score in the fifth when he developed an irresistible propensity to steal. He appropriated second, this and the second, by seizing the sphere all over the diamond in an effort to catch him. The decision came in the seventh, Britt singled the rubber to the ball's long triple to left field. With two out in the ninth, Jess Humbard was sent in as pinch hitter. He made first when the ball took a bad hop over Wilson and was the ball was "Kid" Strong The second game was a repetition of the first with Master Tarlton Strong in power. The Brooklynites could not lath him his famous shot, but the game was held up to examine the ball. He was even made to remove a ring from his finger which the visitors claimed was the cause of being all sorts of worse over the plate. Smith Pat Out Smith threw one of the balls over the fence and was put out of the game when he refused to get it when ordered by the umpire. Big Jess Hulbert opposed the "Kid," in the first running, scored two runs which were enough to win the game. Holloway, the first up, beat up a bunt; Dallarli did likewise. Johnson surplowed and the two runners advanced. Holloway moved the two players to pitching to a whistle. A twister which was lifted to the center field fence, good for two bases scoring Holloway and Dallarli. Day And Flat The disconsolate Giants hung on their lone tilt in the third when Watterson secured from third on a single by the Giants. Fielding honors were evenly divided between Comic Day and George Flaunt. Both handled many difficult chances without a mishap. Two fast double plays in each game, were added features. Johnson Hill Injured Johnson Hill, third baseman on the Brooklyn Royal Giants, was seriously injured last Saturday while sliding into a base in the Hildale-Brooklyn Royal game at Hildale park. He was beaten by the Royals for the last three years and his absence will put a serious crimp in the Royal's line-up. Manager Dougless said the injury was of such a nature that Hill will most likely be out of the game the rest of the season. HILLDALE WINS AND LOSES Collingwood, N. J.-Collingwood offered little resistance to Hildale here Tuesday, and wearily defended 18. On Wednesday of last week, the Camden nine defeated Hildale by the score of 2-1, in a game featured by a pitching duel between Cockrell and Ray Keper. CONSUL Office Hours: 10 A.

Beckwith Tries To Play With Giants Beckwith Tries To Play With Giants Chicago, Ill.—John Beckwith, former Baltimore Black Sox manager and Eastern home run king, was turned down this week by Andrew Ruble Foster, when Beckwith applied to the Western president for a position on the American Giants. Foster can not use the name because his release from the Black Sox, which Spedden refuses to do this season. The former Sox manager quit without notice and the Sox management claims he owe the club a considerable sum of money. Ruble is anxious to negotiate trade with Spedden this year, and has offered Padrone, Cuban players and two other players for Beckwith, but no action will be taken this year. Beckwith has a pool room in Chicago, and it is likely he will devote his time to operating his business until the 1926 season opens.

Boon The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly SPORTS MIRROR BY APRO SPORTS EDITOR HILLDALE, EASTERN CHAMPIONS It all over in the Eastern League but the shooting. With less than a month to go the Hilldale club is nearly a 100 points ahead their near opponents, the Harrisonburg Giants. None of the clubs will finish the 70-game schedule. The Darbyites have nearly 20 games to play and it is extremely doubtful if they can complete the schedule in four weeks, especially so since the Winnipesaukee teams are out, which caused a rearrangement in plums. The pennant will be most likely awarded on the same basis as last year, that is, on the number of games played by each club by October 1. That means Hilldale will be the champions in the East. Harrisonburg will finish second, with the Sox in third with each league will receive a share of the world series medal. Lost year the Sox got second money, which netted each player a trifle over $80. The Baltimore team is pretty well camped in third position this year, and if they can hold what they have, it will mean a $50 bill to each man, if approximately the same number of fans attends the series.

How Many Agree With This Black Sox To The Afro Sports Editor: Since the Black Sox will be he away for the next two weeks, I think would afford Speddell an excellent opportunity to do a little house cleaning in and around Maryland park. We fans have missed the annual coat of paint that is put on on the stands each year. For some reason, the fresh coat failed to matte last spring, and our team had difficulty in a rain. Grass and weeds in some places stand several inches high. The infield could be greatly improved by being raked and rolled. Did you notice how tall the ball took up in Wilson's head Sunday down the first base line? Stones, holes and rocks cause balls to go out at such a tangent. Proper facilities and generous use of line would do away with a lot of stands. We can not very well have games without balls, so why not keep the umpires supplied and stop holding the game up repentedly for lack of balls. By the time the prize fighting players should be disbanded, one big league player was suspended and fined $5,000, so these fellows on the Sox that have a tendency to slam the ampire when a decision does not please them should be meted out punishment ap- After paying for box seats, fans should be allowed an unobstructed view of the game, and not be persecuted by a group of gate crushers, pass holders and "Annie Ockley's." "Jack Johnson." But the Sox Do Not Play As Many Games in A Week As The Hillsdales, or Harrisburg. To the Editor: It seems as though the fans are down on the ball players or the Black Sox baseball club, and hold them solely to for the kind of oaths they have been playing, and their standing in the league, but I wonder if it is the fault of the players as much as it is the owners, if in their pursuit after that almost dollar, they didn't forget there was such a thing as a pennant and fans who were pulled into Sox while they (were owners), had them on the road from Sunday night till the following Sunday morning. After a few hours' sleep, they are expected to get out there and play just as hard as they would. If they had had a few days rest, and soon as the owners saw that attendance was falling due to the poor showing of the team they talked about house cleaning. I ask you all as one fan to another, is it fair to the players? I, for one, don't think so. JOSEPH HOUSE. 1308 Lanvale street. Office Consult DR. ROBER Office Consultation and Treatment ROBERT X.

Mason and Hayman, who did the pitching for the Lincoln Giants, were driven from the box in the fourth. Dilligo, Cuban's pitcher, held complete control over the home team.

SAYS ATTY. DAVIS IN CHALLENGE TO LASNER Page Eight DAVIS ISSUES CHALLENGE TO CAPT. LASTNER Arretrated." SECOND APPEAL IS SENT TO GAITHER Commissioner Asked To Give Accused Police Officer A Public Hearing A challenge to Captain Lastner of the Northwestern Police station to prove his assertion that "intelligent Negroes" in his district are arrested in "any large numbers;" appeal to Police Commissioner Gaither to give a public hearing to the charges of Dr. J. A. White against Patrolman John Picha, white; and a hint that other legal action is contemplated constitute the developments in the celebrated Picha case this week. Picha is the officer who formerly patrolled the beat on Pennsylvania avenue, where the Royal Palace Hotel is located. He was transferred to Madison avenue head, and effort made to discover if any securities in conduct caused his removal. It was in this latter district that he held up Dr. J. A. White, Pennsylvania avenue dentist and a womans companion, snuck his flashlight in her face and demanded to know if she was white. Commissioner Griffin, who refused to hear Dr. White's complaint against the dentist, died through blistering injury. J. Stewart Davis, received a award appended Tuesday from attorney Davis again requesting a memo be written. The Davis statement reads: "Discussing first, the reports submitted to you by Captain Laster on behalf of himself, Officer Lester, officer of the Army, Turkey, Officer Macmillan, Catheline Bryne, man of Sergeant Charles L. D. Yeagle, and Telephone Operator Yearle, I best to state that although only one of the strangely deep details the actions marks attributed to him by those on duty at the station house on the even of August 3, 1925, what he did or did not subsequent to his arrest, is immaterial, will examine our complaint you will find that we practically confined ourselves to what occurred on Madison avenue. Our contention then — our contention nothing but Madison avenue quality (Officer Pichia's conduct at that time). Dr. White Indignant The substance of the reports as submitted you by Commanding Officer of the Northwestern District is that Dr. White and his companion hid highly indignant at the arrest and so themselves. Without admitting that the doctor or his companion made the remarks airborne to them, permit me to state most empirically that if the arrest was improper and unjust perpetual, then he indignantibly so even though they are not trespassers. Last year can't price it "As to Captain Laster's statement that it is the habit of intelligent Negroes in a number of causes to tell petroleum to wonder how far their hearth in this particular section, I decide to say without equivocation that Captain Laster speaks that which he cannot prove. With there are no "intelligent Negroes" arrested in a number of cases, even in Captain Laster's district, where often the pigment of the skin jane is sulphure cause for ar- I will challenge Captain Lastner to prove that the dockers of the Northwestern District will disclose that "intelligent" Negroes are arrested in any "number" of cases. That statute on the part of Captain Lastner cannot but be considered direct insult to the intelligent and law abiding colored residents of the Northwestern District. The only condition attached to that Captain Lastner should not be the size of the Negroes' intelligents. Couldn't Determine Rho "As to the statement included in the report of Captain Lassner that when he (Officer Picha) learned the female was a Negro woman, state that she never no means the officer learning that the female was a Negro woman unless he accepted the statement the lady or Dr. White" for the lady's completion was for that physical examination would ever disclose that she was colored. "Influence Tall: Denied Dr. White denies specifically had categorically the allegations that he told Officer Picha that he (Officer Picha), was one of those smart southerners who does not give a man that does not give a man the denies that he called Officer Picha back in either a low or loud voice. He denies that he referred in any manner whatever ever to any superiority as superior." "He denies that he even as much as suggested to. Officer Picha that he (Dr. White), had plenty of influence. He denies further that he demanded that he be arrested; and 'he most E IT," SAYS The Mayor's office told the Afro-American Wednesday that the mayor had no official engagement to speak at the convention on Wednesday, although he might have made arrangements verbally to do so. Governor Robertson asked his office in the United Trust Building, Wednesday, noon, for a similar query. Word received from Philadelphia Tuesday at the Afro office, announced that Rev. A. L. Jordan, of the University of North Carolina, got out the souvenir programs and had the matter in his hands, together with an authorization of Secretary Hudson. Thursday, the Afro received a telegram from Rev. M. Mr. Jordan, of the University of North Carolina, who would be the city Thursday with the program Asked concerning the delay, Dr. Stray declared that the making out of the program was in the hands of the secretary in Nashville, but the publication of it was in the hands of a local committee. No news he said were available for newsmen. Inspector Henry has made arrangements to handle crowds of spectators. Special parking arrangements will be in effect, and Hoffman street will be given over to one way traffic.

Cold, Grip and Flu Capsules Arenously denies that he suggested to Officer Picha, on the way to the station house that they compromise the case. "Dr. White insists that Officer Picha did jump on the train, and further that the officer used the words attributed to the officer in our petition. As to Officer Picha's allegation that Dr. White said, in effect, that if Officer Picha was up north in Philadelphia, where he was among people have a chance, he would fit him. "Dr. White charges that said statement on the part of Officer Picha is an unqualified falsehood. Dr. White did not come from Philadelphia. He was born in Ridgway, N.C. and never in his life has he lived any further north than Baltimore. Mu. "I notice nothing in any of the reports and more especially echo, charging the lady in question with making any remarks. Please be so kind to us as to be far better how he justifies her arrest. Summary "To summarize, we have raised the clear cut question of veracity. Either Dr. White is grievously mistaken or lying, or Officer Plema is very much in error or lying. If Dr. White's statement is false, Officer Plema should be vindicated. All officers concerned would certainly not interfere with this vindication. If Officer Picha is lying thin Dr. White and his friends insist that Officer Picha and all other officers of his sinecure be ad- vised he has not retained them to opress its citizens, but rather to protect them. Without any intention of interfering with your perogatives, may I suggest that it might be preferable to hear both sides of the story to be heard at which time you have the opportunity of observing them and having them in the presence of each other; which of course would aid you materially in arriving at the truth of this conspiracy. We know that our case with addifia- vis as to the above statement of facts and denials. "In an interview we insist that the question remains, 'can the police of Baltimore embrace or arrest a gentleman of color, who happens to be accompanied by a fair-complexioned lady and is the burden of proof upon the lady and her companion to convince the officer that she is colored; and further must she wait until the morning or her proof to a Magistrate." Requests Hearing "Hence, I conclude by repeating my request for a hearing based on the complaints of my original petition in behalf of the colorgent citizens of the North-western district.

ONE KILLED: TWO HURT WHEN TRUCK COLLIDE SAMUEL JACKSON DIES FROM WOUNDS: TOTHERS SERIOUSLY INJURED IN COLLISION Samuel Jackson, 1717 Maryland avenue, succumbed to a fractured skull in the Johns Hopkins hospital, where he was rushed following a collision Saturday. John Holland, 1423 Winchester street, and James Brown, 177 Maryland avenue, were also treated at the hospital. Holland received an ultrasound of the lower right limb and Brown received an ultrasound of the head right arm. The health was severely bruised about other parts of the body. According to traffic patrolmen, Jackson was driving a Ford truck rapidly on Madison street when, at Harford avenue, he collided with a White truck, driven by Holland. The vehicle partly collided and a few hefters after being admitted to the hospital. Brown rode on the truck with Jackson. Work For 25c A Day "Labor is cheap in Liberia.

Hall Started 35 Years Ago On Dixie Steam- ers STEAMED 200,000 MI. BEFORE HE QUIT He Likes Law Better Than Supervising Hospital Build- ings It looks like a long step from a Marine Engineer to a law office but George W. Hall claims that he made that step. Lawyer Jail is a native of Georgia and started his sequestering career in 1891 running on a boat from Savannah to New York. After several years as an assistant he took a civil service examination and became a full fledged engineer whereupon he was granted a license to engage in large leasing. American ports in this capacity he visited Europe, Asia, South America and Australia, covering about 200,000 miles. Johns Garvey Crew In 1921 Attorney Hall joined the National Negro Improvement Association as chief engineer of one of Marcus Garvey's pleasure boats. The failure to the Black Star Line was due to incompetence of the men in the company, and the severity overhauling the ships before undertaking a trip he avers. After several months with the Garvey interprise, he resigned to accept a position as superintendent of buildings at the veteran hospital Hospital No. 1. This was a civil pointment. He left this to come to Baltimore. Prior to this, however, he had practiced law in the State of Georgia, after finishing a course at Howard University, and the bar his six years.

Thoughts Of The Founder gathered from writings of the leader of the Afro-American movement. Now that the schools are in the hands of colored teachers and now that the schools are going to be made to take these schools in Baltimore the old schools of the country, and we are going to be the leaders of the movement. We believe that you are not ready for the military, as you are not ready for all possible but that you have fully made your minds that God helping you, you colored schools of Baltimore will not only be the equal of those you colored cities of city or community, but as you are able to control situation, they shall be better, are not going to disappoint one who entrusted you with re- sponsibility, the city authorities sove to see that they have made mistake when they placed the en- trance of the colored school of the City of Baltimore, in your side. We Need What this country needs is man, with birth of freedom, but the old- est $2 lower birth. What this country needs isn't but less people who till it Cal Appoints President Calvin Coolidge whenanning for office two years ago wasan early candidate who did notdefend the Ku Kluxans. So it could not to be surprisingthat the President appointed to thecollector of customs at Saginaw, Ga., last week, a publiclywanted klansman, a Democrat, whostormed Republican after John W. Kiss consumed the order. The Georgia press carries the announcement that the new collectoris given up his office as Klansubsidy, to devote his life toklansman in Georgia, both senators aredemocrats. It is therefore improbable that President Coolidge askedor acted upon the recommendationsof those men who usuallystake such patronage, on theother hand, the President did copiah and very probably did take thevote of the Republican NationalCommitteeman from Georgia, whoM. Henry Lincoln Johnson. That Mr. Johnson should recompense to the President a klusman as an officer in the order for the biggest Federal post in the state, to be surprising, but is not so who I knew Colonel John's political record. Samanian papers declare that the Republican National Committee woman, Mrs. George S. Williams, did not endorse the new collector, the same papers awnt that Mr. Johnson, appearing before the Riviera State Central Committee a few weeks ago, disclosed, that he ordered one W. S. Scott, well known race business man of Sawaii, for the position. It looks like he to Mr. Johnson to tell what he happened in the interim, to take him desert Scott and come for the KK, Kluxet. As to Mr. Johnson's record, by virtue of himself in a biography for Whis' Wine, "the great demand for campuses, and central arena campuses, and central arena in exposing pietty politics, discrimination and segregation in government service." The first part of this is undoubtedly true. His ability to handle the Georgia delegation in National Republican Convention, won for him, lies of Reverend B. Blade, in Washington under the Title II. He is charged with handling the $11.6 million campaign fund in Governor Donald J. Powers' campaign for the presidential nomination and campaign financing and Coulidge. Under both of these names, Presidents, so failed to land the politician he sought. Columbus Johnson is a politician of four years. If he stigmatizes the later today and recommends a high in tuition, comforter office, double-crossing with constituents, there is nothing surprising about it. The only wonder is that the guillotine keep such a national committee in power long after he has served. Labor Dav 1925 Monday, September 27th, the mechanic will again his assist his working tools; the artisan pauses in his work; the carpenter rests his hands; the capitalist sees his waterman closing the gates of the big factory or mill; and Labor will come over own by occupying a day prescribed by the government for relaxation of the tolling masses in our country. The government has officially recognized the dignity of Labor by establishing the patrons and departments in annual observance of this day. The American laboring mean of varied traces throughout the country, are vitally essential to our everyday life. They are engaged in building a greater American by providing dwelling places for the immigrant, by providing the types of commodities, luxuries and actual necessities, constructing the home, the church, the school, the office building, and the myriad of modern building operations. The American laboring man need not deplore his lack of scholarly attributions or collegiate honors, he is adequately filling his niche by contributing individual honest service and institution's great program of activities. And so on labor Day. Have a high regard for honest and conscientious labor. Teach all men that labor is the condition of the rolling millions. We are all workmen in our several occasions, whether in actual labor, preparing plan for the laborers, or studying the calculations of philosophy, law, and knowledge, the destruction of ignorance and barbarism. This Week "Keep Cool With Coolidge" One of the campaign slogans of the Hold Tight Brigade was, "Keep Cool With Coolidge." This slogan was all wrong. It should have been, "Keep Brakes With Coolidge." That would have been nearer the truth. There are perhaps more ordinary folks on the rocks now than there have been for some time. And it is the ordinary plain folks that I am interested in. I belong to that large group myself. This Coolidge based is just another proof of the off-repeated saying that the President and Congress do not run this glorious land of our own. The usual run of presidents is a little more than a Punch or a Judy. To the onlookers Punch and Judy seem to be doing the talking. But all but the children and the children in mind, know that the gentleman, on whose knee Punch sits, is really the power and the mouth behind Punch. This same gentleman is also the power and the mouth behind many an act of Congress and many an executive policy and order. Thus it matters little who is President, or what party is in control, or Congress. The men in control are the governors, the homeowners to home industries and who put millions into government bonds are the men who really call the tunes. What we have in this country is not really "Government," but rather "The People," but rather GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE. BY SONGGREN. FOR THE CAPITALIST. The role of the so-called people is really that of the father in any well regulated society. He is there to PAY THE BILLS. Age Of Whiskey This is the age of whiskey; there is whiskey, whiskey, everywhere and many a tourist to drink. I should have been the inroad that Hoech has inside the homes, the stomach and the good graces of many supposed respectable and upright citizens. How are the 'best citizens' it seems that there can be no social affair, worth attending, unless the host or house passes our sons and daughters, so these sons and daughters are housed, beckons with heads, knees weaken and drums don't care whose wife they oncicle. And Gise from our 'holding' citizens told me this highly Jerusalem the wifes can afford this sort of things. I know Jerusalem cannot afford it, literally, financially and physically. Off the second side there is not one Negro in a thirst and who can afford to lay out for them the NO 'NEGLO who can afford to do such things. It is an awful thing when men ask, women, who ought to know better, begin to require to those who are in financial and healthiness of themselves and their families, but they lose their value to our group, and the womens, until chemists, for motherhood, and for children. Of what services is the training of the schools to a man if he insists on dangling it all out in a sea of whiskey thus vaping up the moral, financial and social life of himself and his family that he protect THEM from this sort of thing. There is many an off-color wife and daughter who learned it at home. And the homes of her husband's friends. If there is a Nerto anywhere who feels that this sort of thing does him or our race any good, let him the first stone. I'd like to get STRANGE BEDFELLOWS DUMMING JOHNSON K K K DAY BY DAY Call VErnon 6016 STRANGE B DAY B WITH WILL Our National Baptist Convention When delegates representing the Dapist hosts of the country leave Baltimore next week, the history of another year of that denomination will be written. There will be the usual felicitation on the part of many of their leaders and also some re- tention. PETER B. The Baptist denomination. In point of numbers the largest religious organization working in the present world. Wm. N. J. Jones. Besides this it is the most demographize of all religions, the last word in protestantism and freedom of religious action. Every Baptist minister is a bishop and every minister in his denomination. If at times this biggest of all organizations has been unwieldy and has made mistakes, there is little wonder. There is growing discipline in the Baptist church. Even when a minister is able to get a strangle hold on the rains in any church or organization, the constituency must be unilled with such an order which ends in each situation following the distaste of its conscience and following the liquid most suited to its ideas. ACTIVE ALL THAT IS REAL DEMOGRA You will say that many splits and disruptions make for organization and e f f e n c e n c y. Many splits are for leadership and expansion. Also the rank and title of the Baptist leadership is far below modern standards, that denomination has developed as the most leaders in the Negro race. Constant struggle and fighting make strong men. You can't keep a weak man in a strong place in the Baptist church, and you can't have a fair chance to show his mettle. Biggest Experiment In Democracy The Baptist denomination is therefore the biggest experiment in American democracy through the birthplace of self-leadership. . . . We confer its possibilities and achievements, nor its shortness of time, in the disregard by its leaders in this its 45th session. Its to be a million members throughout the country contribute more than $25,000,000 dollars, each year to religious support in its annual meeting, and to expenses of entertaining its delegates more than a half million dollars. Let on the debit side of this consideration we find this great organization, after ten years of effort still struggling, establish a national institution that could have been put on a firm foundation with $100,000. The names are not in spirit, but in the business end of its administration. No denomination handles such a large sum of money with "This writer has been intimately identified with the baptist denomination for years. Writing from the inside of the book, we write about the struggles of the honest and unclever men in the denomination to give a good accounting of the denomination. Under the leadership of Dr. L. K. Wheeler, we have grown the business of Dr. A. M. Townsend, Dr. T. O. Foster and their associates, let us hope that the net percentage of actual accomplishment of the Nazi nazi movement is high, with the numbers its opportunities and money expended. Indian Hatred Of White Civilization Antonie Stefan Bloesen an experienced Indian of the Hutcheols Tribe, tried to introduce, on civilization and customs of the Hutcheols and old Indian chiefs led him out of the city and shut him to death. This was their answer to the call of vengeance against years of white injustice. In retelling and unending in spirit, most Indians, and the Hutcheols in particular, hate white civilization. Deep down in their hearts is always an unmercurial love of white civilization is over shadowed by the white injustice which drove them from their plains, bills and hunting grounds, and shut them in never conquered. You will question whether the Indian grace has been justified in a The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly policy which has caused it to be litterally wiped from the face of a country, but you will admire their courage and nobleness of ideas. THERE ARE SOME THINGS IN OUR WORLD MORE VALUABLE THAN LIKE Family: Budgets For Domestic Ills A resident on Mount Street who makes $30 per week and supports a wife so she can buy her food, which he is buying told this writer that he credited his escape from the divorce court to the use of a family budget. He is now registered. I lived on the very threshold of a municipal catastrophe; constant diving recesses, insiderstandings and tangle-ups. I was home got in such deadly work that most of the sweetness had been snapped out of home life. When someone told him of the budget plan in home affairs, instead of the constant disappointments of the hit or miss spending of the family, he said that the result that there is not the monthly tight shaves; the planning of things by the wife that cannot be done and overexpending. We both know what we can spend personally and besides we have been able to get aside a very small amount against the day when I shall become This resident is right. Most of the unhappiness in the modern home grows out of mismanagement and the result strain upon the nervous system which it brings. When things are running smoothly: when monthly bills are being paid regularly, even though there is sacrifice, there is more chance of happiness than when annoying financial difficulties cast shadows over the home. When the late Bert Williams said humorously that "when poverty comes in the door, love flies out of the window," he expressed a deep and serious truth. Many domestic banks have gone on the rocks because of inability of pilot husband to steer the family finances. Make a budget. Divide the income into housing, food, clothing, amusement, insurance and savings items, and keep to this budget until you can increase the income. The happy home of the present is the scientifically conducted home where all inmates can lay their heads on jillows at night without starting the oncoming days difficulties forever in the face.

PROFESSOR FUDGE AMOS HOKUM SAYS When the Elk's Convention convene dim Richmond, there were those who "sacked for" the Grand Exhibit, the exhibition of the coelosal hog cutter, J. Finley Wilson. From the first day, in fact, months before the great host descended upon the city, the coelosal hog were made to unset. J. Finley The Arguments The comments brought forth were various. Some said J4 Lailey had accomplished a great deal during his tenure of office but that time he was not of the office. They alleged the order bequeathed of many good men, and some of these good men should be given a chance. The "high brow" element told the little follows Lailey was working against them, while the little follows told the "high brow" he was working against them. When the session was begun, You could feel the opposition to the Grand Exalted Ruler. Political Manouvers The convention was a marvel of political maneuvers, the like of which has not been seen in Convention in New York, at which time he was making African Princess and Duke, local leaders, grand treasurer, and assistant Wire-pulling was in evidence after the first few moments. To a rank outsider, it must be remembered that are not always what they seem. Finley had also been doing some thinking and some planning. He had prepared for most anything. Old Guard With Wilson Mr. Wilson had with him what is known as the Old Guard, comprising among others, Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, the National Committee from Georgia, and some note, and of great ability, Perry Howard, of Mississippi and Washington, an outstanding legal light, and an old time machine, politician, and Marianne McCain, the newspaper man, who is now located in Chicago, and most all of the politicians from all over the country, did their bit to see the herd亡. The opposition "squawkweed" and belittled the old guard, but the old guard proved conclusively that it knew what to do with such a situation. Under the influence of John Finken went over with such a third that it was almost unbelievable. Brings Aid As the preachers would say, the lesson we learn from this battle is that it is hard to dislodge anybody when you are in the middle of it. In this convention, it might be said in spite of the general kick against some of the old fellows in the army, but not yet ready to capitulate. You may knock them down, but they will get up again.

With the convention adjourned, his home, the local population will now take up the little piece of scandal the expositions of the convention. White Richmond And John Jasper Other than the convention, there is one thing that impressed me in Richmond, and it was the veneration, the memory of John Jasper and Tilts G. Jackson. John Jasper was a minister of the Episcopal Church in Richmond, Baptists. His church was the Sixth Mt. Zion of Richmond, and he was the expounder of the "Sun do move and the earth am square," doctrine, forbable the population was much and permanently impressed by him. He was not an educated man, but he was a man of great intellect and his way of explaining it, made some of the most learned doubt themselves. He had a firm hold on Richmond, and is precisely responsible for some of the questionstions prevalent. Who Giles B. Jackson Was Mr. Giles B. Jackson was a lawyer, who was admitted to the bar on the law, but he knew his staff. His influence can hardly be estimated. The United States Government once turned over in his charge a colored exposition. This amount was supplemented by the State of Virginia, and the City of Richmond, not to mention private corporations for the project. It was he who once stopped President Roosevelt when he was being tried. Cities like Chesapeake and Cities B. Jackson ran out of his office, stopped the procession, and shook hands with Teddy, who seconded more than g rated him. Virginia concurred the race, his advice was always solicited, and his council almost invariably taken. He could admit States and find the reputation of being able to reach most any big man. The present time the City of Richmond is about to use a history, which he is credited with having helped to edifl. He was not always in favor with the colored citizens of the United States, who did the white folks' doubt him. Statue For Giles Mr. Giles B. Jackson was the Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elisi in one time, he referred to the city white man who dressed the convention, that has just closed.

White Pastor Urges Series of Sermons with Jubilee Songs as Theme For Them Detroit Minister Hired Ford Motor Company's Colored Octet to Furnish Music at His Sunday Evening Services. Turned Lights Out Baltimore, Md. White Pastor U of Sermons Songs as The Detroit Minister Hip pany's Colored Oc at His Sunday E Turned Lights Out By Wm. I. Stidger, D. D. Detroit (In the Homemate Review for July) Ideas are scarce. Mr. Stidger used to tell me my wife, that an idea I particularly liked in gold. More particularly do ideas in homilies seem scarier than the proverbial hen's teeth. We all know that the Negra spirituals are perhaps our own. Their music is few scattering and smattering tones or harmonies, but so few that they have little bulk or beauty. The only real folk songs that have developed in our nation are those tones and harmonies, but so few that thing about them is that they are all religious and deeply spiritual—spiritual to the heart of them so spiritual to the soul. The allure of this ally to this day, and will grip as long as they live. They grow up and out of a great business, a great tragedy, a great oppression a great hour of need, in the dark of slavery in the United States. The Negro is naturally emotional, and religious. He sang his tragedy and his loneliness into these melodies. They have grown more and more gone by. Many groups of Negro singers have made them known all over this nation an in Europe. Perhaps the Fisk Jubilee Singers have been the most popular of these groups that have sung the nations singing the spiritfuls. Ford Octet I have had, during the last year, shinging these spirituelles. "St. Mark's the Lord Eight," i.e., college graduates and all men who are working in the church, will use any group of Negroes I have ever heard, and that is saying much. I noticed Sunday after Sunday, how these Negro spirituelles gripped the shoulders of the audience, one night they were siding, "Oh Lord, what a morning it will be. When the stars begin to fall." The Saturday night presiding by the dear buttrot A. A. has a special coming back from Ann Arbor, had been wrecked, several cars turned upside down, a terrible thing to look at but a single person could see it. This was the face, that all of the cars were steel cars. However, the outstanding incident of the wreck was the fact that newspaper reporters found in a dozen gold or silver whisky skins that were wrecked cars. What had happened? Throw Flasks Away This: The men who carried these asks, when the crash came, reached hurriedly into their phones, pulled away. They thought they were going to die, and they just naturally didn't want to be caught dead. They had a public editorial that Sunday in which I asked the question: Why did the boys throw away their whisky-fasks last night? The same singers were singing that old song: "Oh God What a Morning It Will Be. When the Stars Begin To Fall" and addressed the subject, a subdued subject, by the strange appeal of that sentiment, it flashed over me than was the reason the men were so insensitive. They knew that they faced some kind of judgment. That thought is instinctive in the human soul. Where it came from I do not Electrical Charge Something like an electric charge of emotion went over on crowd of three thousand people on night of a fight in the city. That phrase haunted me "Oh Lord, when a morning it will be, When the stara begin to fail, For a week it will fail this sentence. Then I got to thinking about the spiritual suggestions in all of those spiritualities, and it occurred to me that a series of them were enormous pulling and preaching power. They would have pulling power publicity power—because the people knew them, and people knew them, and people knew them. I do know of anything everyday folks like more than they like those songs. They would have preaching moves because they summed up the fundamental spiritual things of our re Series Of Sermons Therefore I announced for December a series of sermons on the Negro Spiritualelle. It was a during of doctrines in religious project to do religious intolerance, be who dares not does little new. I used the spirituelle that I have just mentioned to preach a sermon on "The Judgment." I used the spirituelle to refresh a "Oh Lord, What a morning it will be When, the sara begins to fall" summer the judgment in one haunting melodious line. God mentions "The Testament are the idea of a judgment. In recent years we have ceased preaching about a reckoning, a judgment. I took the testament and the judgment seat. (From 15:10) and developed the idea. The theme grinned my crowd. Nobody Knows The second theme that I used was the refrain from the spirituelle, "Nobody knows do trouble I had but Jesus." I used it as a text, "also is born unclef as the sinless sinner." (John 10:17). The giver me an incontinence of preaching on the universality of Christ's offspring. "Offspring chit I used the steak." (John 10:18). "He knoweth our trance; that we are dust." (Ps. 103:14) and "I know my sheep and mine own me," (John 10:14). I used these concepts giving us access to Jesus and us and knowing that we are "born to trouble as the sparks fly upward;" that Christ understands because he was "a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and I had sorrow as the decree of my great audience." I had the most universal problem of humanity—trouble; and here I had the spirituelle to express that problem. Nobody knows Jesus; and I had the comforting Christ Page Nine Urges Series with Jubilee Theme For Them ed Ford Motor Com- tet to Furnish Music vening Services. who understands, not only our troubles and our hearts, but also how I comfort them; and understands because he had nowhere to lay his Race Sololst When it is possible, it is well to have a Negro solist, a group of spirituled singers, or phonograph records to render the spirituled two night you preach on them. But the black itself is a tremendous drawpower and even more tremendous preaching vehicle. I had the Ford singers one Sunday evening, and had them sing the hymn "Amazing Grace" in refrain of the theme that I was using. For instance, the night I preached on "Nobody knows do trouble The bad but know I leaves the collection during the collection, while the lights were off and the prayer cross was lighted in a response to my prayer, and again, just before I began to preach. I rose for the sermon while the beautiful charm of the haunting crowd drew me in. The crowd. When I had finished preaching without a moment's delay the Negroes sang it again softly, the switch off and the prayer Cross on. "That was our benediction; I doubt if a great crowd ever went out to pray that crowd. And they went out humming in their souls: 'Nobody knows de trouble' I use but Jesus. My third spiritually theme was, 'I couldn't hear nobody pray.' I game me an opportunity to preach on prayer in a new way and the chance to show that this age is an age when we can't hear anybody pray. We no longer hear, our parents pray. We no longer pray. We parents certify did. We now hear little, public prayer in school, or at any public function. They don't section me to the spritched and every preacher should be given for a new and an original vehicle through which to preach it." I Will Pony I found the text I wanted in *T* Samuelus, 7:3: "I will pray for you unto Johann." "There's vigor in you unto Johann." "There is a great text, if my people shray," in Ezek 6:10, there is an admonition to "Pray for the life of your people," in Jer 42:2, there is a petition to "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem;" in Jer 42:2, there is a petition to "Pray for the Lord in the land;" in Jer 42:2, there is an known appeal to the Lord himself, "Lord teach us to pray;" further in in Lake, the saying that man is not supposed to be a man who truly reverent touch in Aes 9:1: "Hehold, his prayeth." "These are powerful admonitions to prayer for an age when 'I couldn't Talk Nonsense It is such an age and such a generation, and we preachers know it. It is an age, the edge of an abyss. It is an age of the "degradation of love." Here is a vehicle for a great sermon on prayer in this old spirituelle theme, "Singin' all over God's heaven that fitted perseverance to Christ's sacrifice," the beautiful story of the angels singing down far heaven to the listening shepherds. Our Christmas religion is a singing religion. 2. It is a religion of joy and laughter. 3. It is a shouting religion. 4. It is a dancing religion. 5. Our Christmas religion. "God is gone up with a shuqi. Sing praises to God, sing praises!" "I will shout. I will shine." "Of this glorious thing." My fourth spiritual theme was: it was good to old another and to new another. It was an opportunity of prescribing to an old time religion for a new time day and generation. It was fundamentals of truth, integrity, honor, love, and reverence. I have said so often in this continued on page 7. It's not the idle rich but the idle young that is raising the devil with the country. On every hand you see young people shying from work and trying to go without it, scouring ever-wins. "Too much" pampering, and too little enforcement, of discipline by parents is largely to blame for the present overwhelming of kids. "For a reason," an adult child, not brought up to work and obey his parents will snear at the law when he gets into the world for himself.

Maybe that's what the stuff about telling your sweetie she's not much on books won't work, for you must get hurt a girl family, and that would surely be walking all over her. When a follow starts bawling a girl out about her dressing better start moving, for we simply won't stand for anything of the sort. And when it comes to knocking a girl because she speaks to an old steady, and that would surely be walking all over her, he'll be hunting another sweetie.

"Masterpiece O Reported To N Governor Sam A. Baker Wou The Mater." Petition B New York-What is described as a "masterpiece of legal murder" is reported to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People as having occurred in Missouri, on July 18, when James Crump was hanged, despite sworn statements of reputable white men that he had not had a fair chance of acquitting the legal farce to be enacted upon assurance that Crump would be hanged. Missouri is rapidly forging to the front as one of the leading lynching States, the largest public murder having occurred at Excelsior Springs, on August 7th. The legal murder of James Crump is reported to the St. Louis Branch of the A. A. C. P. to have occurred as a consequence of his being accused of killing in a fight a white sheriff, who was said to be his rival in the affections of a colored woman. LAWYERS It is charged that a white lawyer who had Crump's case, abandoned it in mid-trial, that another, unidentified pointer, accused him of missing many opportunities favorable to his client; and that a colored lawyer had accepted more than $300 from Crump's mother, proceeds of the sale of her home, and had merely mailed a brief to the Supreme Court. The case was twice tried by the State Supreme Court, O. of the trials at Jefferson City and Mexico, Mo. the report to the N. A. A. C. P. states: Trials at both places had only been made possible without number of court officials, by official assurance that conviction and execution were certainties. Moreover, the court expressed that anything less than a death sentence would precipitate the immediate execution of Crump. The only instance numerously one-hand and blunt of their purpose.

He has no respect for the dilem. He has frequently been in trouble. In fact, it seems to me he has all the weaknesses a man can have. And yet, I never knew what love was until I knew him. His children are dearer to me than the man I am. I am allowed to choose the one with whom I may spend eternity. I shall spend it with my second husband—proposed marriage for me, there could be no better out-of-him. Are such marriages made in heaven? If not, then how do women get that way?

Couldn't "Worry Or Bother Over By White Citizens Ignored white citizens and went to see Governor Baker, who allowed him only two minutes and abruptly terminated the audience by leaving the room and slamming the door. "A large volume of petitions, protests, etc." the report to the N. A. A. C. P. continues, "were hurried up to the Governor, up to the night before the day of execution. This stream of citizens from Northeastern County whited of the better class. Hopeless of doing anything with the Governor, early in the time following Crump's conviction, we considered what might be done through the Federal Court.... We sent Mr. Kenswill to Montgomery City for a transcript of the record of trial including the testimony. For five days we went over this testimony with very competent attornment weight, or nine-again and-main, seeking something that would be sufficient to justify U. S. District Judge Davis in issuing a writ of bansers corpus. The official lynchers at Montgomery had made a masterpiece of legal murder. They had conformed neatly with every legal requirement. Just as the change of venue had been granted, as it were, to another ROOM, just so had they been perfectly regular in the trial at Montgomery, giving the defendant everything that was due him—except justice. The testimony against Crump is described as "a mass of contradictory and unbelievably unreasonable testimony." PETITION Mr. Kenswil states that H. H. Sturgeon attended the trial at Mortgomery City, personally presented to Gov. Baker a petition signed by upwards of 30 white citizens, who believed Crump to have had no fair trial. Mr. Kenswil further states Gov. Baker warned him before his interment "if you say that right say will have no effect upon him." Claude R. Ball, a reputable white attorney of Mortgomery City, writes: "He (the Governor) was dead set against Crump and finally told me that he would not grant him a stay of execution, than discussed at his conduct." 5147 4780 4929 FASHION BOOK NOTICE Send 12c in silver or stamps for our BOOK OF FASHIONS showing color pussies and Children's Patterns, a COFN DRESSMAKING, also SOME PUSSIES, yards of plain material. 5147—MISSES DRESS—Cut in 3 inches 1½ yard of figured material made nk illustrated in the large view.

Rod might have gone on with an endless recitation for he was full of opportunity before to pronounce the countless facts he had been gathering both consciously and unconsciously, day by day, but Castle appeared with punch and cakes, and the discussion was terminated.

Was told yesterday Crane Wattie is looking for an understanding." sealed his mood successfully. On Natalie's invitation he entered the motor with her and they left the house in a deluge of rain. They rode in silence for some squares. Passing under a street lamp turned to Natalie. "It's a beast of a night, dear girl, and I hate like she is. Come. Let's turn back and go somewhere worth while and have a dance or two and a blaze." Natalie shook her head and smiled. Her eyes became wide and serious. She watched the slanting rain as it beat against the windows. "I never like to turn back once I have started." "Well, don't expect me to go in with you—please. I'll deliver you into the house, our friend Roscoe and I'll come back for you, but as for sitting among a bunch of Nogrogs for a whole evening—well, it isn't done, that's all. If you were a real American you'd know that." Natalies tips tightened. Natalies stood for fairness and equality. I was proud to find them in that way, but now situation and they sing America praised as we do, but—"But what, Rob?" "But they find bitter contradiction in both, yet until now, they have been gaint enough to try to excuse the performance commanded. Natalies view the acts that follow succession. There were a number of soldier stationed on the door, some of a man of whom a French girl said: "Never will we forget the infant table of the American Nogrogs nothing could stop him." They were clear: directing into arrests, quieting groups of illicit workers, regulating the ventilating tent and accomplishing a number of obstinacy but necessary duties, kept the munition gathering or fortable. Natalies followed their many forms as they darted in all directions, instantly burst back and calmly borne back and quietly raiding the war with "I'm afraid that is too big a name in the musical comedy world for me to combine with." "Not so big I can't get it on one of my calling cards!" Lane tapped the cardcase in his pocket. "That's kind of you, I'm sure. I'd appreciate meeting Mr. Watteau, although I hadn't planned to go on the road quite so soon—dont believe I am here." Lane scribbled a note to Watteau on one of his cards and handed it to Rod. "You are just as ready as plenty of people who have gone over big. There is something unique, odd, different about the way you dance. A few weeks with a man like Watteau will put you where months in an obscure studio could never land you. You're ready! You needn't worry about that. I don't know what training you've had, but the right sort. Glad you showed me what you can do. It's the capacity for doing something original that whisks the way. Let me know how you come out with Watteau." Rod put the card in his pocket. It was an unexpected and overwhelming opportunity. He had considered himself a novice; he had supposed there were long months of toll ahead of him before he might even venture to seals on opening on the stage. Lane's words had put a new light on the whole CHAPTER VIII Lane had not been altogether unselfish, in offering Rod an introduction to Watteau. He wanted Rod out of the way. In the first place Rod's secret in Negroes disgusted him, and the secrecy in his steel and delightful personality cast a shade about anyone else who happened to be in the same room with him. Lane, by reason of his dramatic powers, was sure of outshining the secrecy of the other man, enquired Natalele's teas, but his sureness was shaken in the presence of Rod. Lane could not stand eclipse gracefully. Rod became a frequent visitor in the inner-door bedroom of his old Lane. Many of Lane's visits occurred near afternoon tea time as he was sure of avoiding Rod at that hour. Lane asked Natalele courteous though searching questions about her father. He was much interested in the multimillionaire's activities in South America, In Astor Cartwright's sterner hours those hours in which he ceased gazing into smiling eyes over cool cups he was an engineer whose monster projects and achievements elicited a reaction at frequent intervals. The captain men in his publicity department never allowed him to drop below front page news. His large interests acquired by the developing of territory in new countries kept him traveling across continents and oceans, so that he became a modern and immaculate reporter of the high seas, never content to call and answer. "Must have a great life—skipping about the world—stepping out after breakfast in some hot little country to quoll a revolution or inviting some chap in after luncheon to make him governor or president!" Lane laughed. "Yes, father has an interesting life, though I wish it didn't take him so far away from home! Castle seems the heart of the family than my own father, and I would upwoln bandages for him when he hit a sore throat, and give him advice when he gets into difficulties of one sort or another." "Castles' a lucky chap!" "Have you noticed how it binds one to another person to give that person things and to look out for his comfort? I cant do one thing, ever, for father." Natalie sighed and moved the portrait of her father that stood on one end of the arm of her chair. From the picture, Cartwright seemed to be a fair man powerfully built. "You really ought to have a husband to shower all these delightful attentions on!" Natalie continued. Sink in the grateful embrace of an ever-siame chair Lane contemplated life as it appeared from the Cartwright angle. How alluring everything seemed from a capitalist's armchair. After all—possible glories of the stuge were highly uncertain things—even if one knew what they were, everything year might send one sackling back among the unhappy and bedragged crowd of unknowns. Lane fancied, as the son-in-law of Cartwright, he might travel leisurely about on important missions. His imagination boasted pictures plumed with actions from tropical seas in highly colored yachts, that he jumped when the telephone rang. "It's Rod," Natalie told Lane, skipping back happily. "I had entirely forgotten that this is the night of the Armory. I promised to go down. Rod is waiting there for me now." "What Armory? What performance?" Lane asked with interest. "He's also size Armory, where the Negro Reserve is. The people give a performance every year to raise funds for their Old People's Home." "My word!" Lane gasped, "surely you can't expect you to go to such a place." "Of course he expects me!" "Of course he expects me!" Natalie summoned Castle, who in urn summoned the chauffeur. Lane was distinctly peeved, but he con- CREAM OF NOVELS "Veiled Aristocrats" BY GERTRUDE SANBORN A Story of Two Races cealed his mood successfully. On Natalea's invitation he entered the motor with her and they left the house in a deluge of rain. They rode in silence for some squares. Passing Natalea, she said, "It's a beast of a night, dear girl, and I hate like she to see you going on such a wild chase. Come, let's turn back and go somewhere worth while and have a dance or two and a bite." Natalea shook her head and smiled as she watched the slanting rain as it beat against the windows. "I never like to turn back once I have started." "Well, don't expect me to go in with you—please. I will deliver you into the hands of your friend Rosso and I'll come back for you, but as for sitting among a bunch of Nogress for a whale, it isn't done, that's why if you were a real American you'd know that." Natulley Lips tightened "I thought Americans stood for fairness and equality. I was proud to think of them in that way, but now that I have come home I hardly know what to think." "It has been most unfortunate that you with your particularly sensitive temperament take you too much access like I like the first thing. If he wants to throw himself away in the black hats, it is no reason why a beautiful girl like you should go investigating around and getting into—Lord knows what?" "Rod is more like some dear people I knew abroad than anyone I have seen here. He has no prepubes, Voltaire says: Trjudice is the reason of God." "Hardly complimentary to the rest of us, is it, Natalie? You don't know colored people or you wouldn't be so stubborn. Why waste your sweetness, your lovableness, stirring around in this terrible race problem?" "It isn't a race problem to me." "What do you mean?" "I mean it is instead a human problem." "You are very fond of Rossoe, aren't you?" Lane hit his lip. He felt momentarily vindictive enough to formulate a plan for reaching *Antille's* absent parent to lay her activities before him, but concluded on second thought that such a spirited person as *Antille* could so handed in so high-handed a fashion. The rain was descending in torrents when they reached the Armory. Curs, belonging to Negroes, were parked for several blocks in all directions. Lane lifted *Antille* to the curb and they squeezed through the crowd before the crowd inside. *Antille* gave him both her hands and he caught them in his own swinging them wide while he looked eagerly into her upturned face. Then he transferred both of her hands to *Antille*, who covered them with a caressing motion. It was their incurable greeting. "That to see you, Lane," he nodded to her escort, "coming in, of course,"—no thanks. "We're pleased—for my sake" Natalie cackled. "No, really, I beg to be excused—call for you later." "You needn't, Lane. Rod will take me home." "Oh, very well. Good night." Natalie was carried into the vast hall in a puff of warm, delicately scented air. A heavy of young colored gowns lay beneath her. They light, juffy gowns and with their crispy bobbed hair and gay, rippling veils they were exact replicas of happy young white creatures to whom sodas and sentiment are paramount. Natalie and Rod were the only white people in the great crowd that numbered some four thousand and that filled the hall upward to fill the balcony which run three sides of the last auditorium.

Mr. Editor: Please forgive the pencil. Some friend-perhaps I had been drown the "n" an day fond, has stolen my typewriter. —J.A.R. London, England. London being a very lod city is full of places of historic interest. The City proper, dates back before the Christian era. Readers of history will recall that the Romans built a fine city on the site that had been occupied by the Celts, the borings, and called it Londinium. Almanac evidence of the Roman occupation may be in the funeral hall Museum, the British Museum and in the names of streets. The city has twice destroyed, namely, the time of the Romans by Roadside ruins of Boat, natri tribe; and by the Great Fire of 1663. Westminster Abbey Because there are so many interesting places, one could write about it. I must limit this article to a description necessarily sketchy, of the places most attractive to the tourists. The first in interest, perhaps, is Westminster Abbey, an impressive structure, bearing the stamp of great age and dating back to 300 A.D. It is part of the building as the Abbey is the growth of centuries. The inside of the Abbey, with its tall pillars, curving with age, lies Gothic arches, immanentable windows, and cunningly corrugated woodwork, is an awesome inspiring sight. Darwin And Livingstone In this sanctuary are buried many of England's earlier monarchs, and many men Darwin sheds peacefully here in spite of the storm now raging ever evolution. His interest to Negroes the world over, will be the tribute of David Livingstone the great missionary, and William Wilberforce the philosopher. Coronation Chair Worth $2 For nearly a thousand years, the monarchs of England have been crowned in the Abbey. The coronation chair is a most ordinary looking chair, but it is the history we wish to offer two dollars for it. Still it is priceless. Built in the bottom of the chair is the famous stone of begun, on which the king would be crowned, and which was zoomed from them in 1297 A. D. To my great achievement, I noted that this famed chair has been all over by touring, or boys, men, and women. Of the very old marble edifices on the tombs are similarly cut. Parliament Across the way from the Abbey is Westminster Palace, in which are two Houses of Parliament, the House of Lords Chamber, and Westminster Hall. Westminster Palace is a curved of 120 feet, which is particularly striking, and impressive when viewed from Westminster Bridge at night. Here, the tallest building it is built permits a clear view. At either end are classic towers ca one of which is Big Ben, whose majestic beauty can be heard for The Palace The inside of the palace as a scene of beauty, the richest imaginable. Herein, seems to be centered all the dignity and poign of empire. The property is deeply curved panelling, magnificent pictures and sculpture; elaborate roofs with massy beams, and sculptured ornaments strike the eye. House Of Lords Most striking of oil is the *House of Lords* in which stands the throne, glowing with gold and colors. The tourist is the *Power of London*, a tour-time-stained fortress, besides the Thames, not far from London Bridge. The Tower is also very close to William II to the Comerger (1656 A.D.). Many noted figures have been held prisoner, wallowed with flowers, Sir Walter Cromwell, founder of Virginia, and the merchant of tobacco in England. In the courtyard, a table marked the spot where the heads of his sigs wreaths. Crown Jewels The most striking feature of the Tower is in the Wakefield Tower, wherein are displayed the Crown Jewels of England. Such a scene of wealth and magnificence as I had existed only in the tale of Aladdin. Cases filled with priceless jewels, and heavily-enlobed swords and maces, all of purse gold, line the tower. Its heavy grain is a still grander sight of fashing diamonds, gleaming pearls, and glittering golden emblems. Two of the most striking of these are the Imperial State Crown, in the centre of which glows an enormous ruby. This crown also contains 2,818 diamonds, one of which is cut from the famous Cullinan, and weighs 209 carats. It has also has 285 brilliants, and 125 rose diamonds. State Crown The other—the Imperial State Crown, of George V. has 6,170 diamonds, and other gems, half as many as the crown, co-ordinates bracelets, baptismal fonts, and troubles of knighthood, unto form a scene of splendor, and richness, of the king's court.

Manning, from his sermon, preached two years ago in Washington. Bishop William T. Manning of New York, sent the writer his son on a "Fundamentalism or Modernism" conference at the University of Florida, Freemont September 29, 1922, Washington, D.C. Among other things Bishop Manning said: "I must make it clear, all who will heed that the truth revealed in Jesus Christ is in no conflict with any trait of not modernism or modernism." The ship. The view that science is in antagonism with religion is that it excludes belief in the supernatural. Suspicion "And on the other hand there is no reason why religion should have any suspicion or fears of seduction, those faiths in the Christian faith which conflicts with the scientific theory of evolution. To many or us this hypothesis as to the purpose of both the glory of the Creator and the naturalness of His revelation of Himself in the incarnation. Speaking in regard to the nature and thought, Bishop Manning said: "It is our duty to think honestly and fervently about our religion and living faith. The truth has nothing to fear from free imagery and everything to gain from it. All truth is from God. The truth revealed cannot conflict with any other truth."

Prof. Beam believes in the general principles of the theory of evolution because of the evidence in geology, paleontology, archeology to the law in anthropology, in regard to the law in biology, and teaching of the theory of evolution in public schools. Prof. Beam states that "it is wrong." He does not believe that the progress of the church necessities its opposition to Professor Bons Prof. Franz Goss is America's leading anthropologist.

In his letter to the writer, "Since paleontology shows clearly the gradual change of plant or animal types, we have the right to claim that any theory which is based on evidence of a stable stability of form or of an independent creation of each species is not tenable. When a new fact is confirmed in conflict with older opinion, ordinary truthfulness requires that it should be set forth without hesitation. Any attempt thereupon to resist it must be taught which has been established beyond card must be resisted." And that it was not necessary for him to entail an opinion on the other questions asked him. Perhaps the busy head of Columbia's department of anthropology should consider the more theoretical and academic questions, which were asked.

Tobias senior Secretary of the Chartered Work Department of the Y. M. C. A., spoke to more than a thousand people in the historic amphitheatre of Chantoua institution last week. Testing as his subject, "The Basal Forward Movement In Race Relationship," Secretary Tobias in part said: "You cannot know the Negro by talking with your housemaid or bootleah. You can only know him by communing in person or through the word who can be capable of evading the soul of their people. In order to accomplish this, you must visit Negro homes and public institutions and became acquainted with Negro newspapers and magazines. When you have this way you will think of him less as a problem and more as a national asset." The climax of the speakers address was an appeal for a single standard of personality in a meritorious audience that if a man is discriminated against because he is ignorant or poor, he could overcome the handicap by acquiring learning and wealth, but if he is discriminated against because of color the discrimination is based upon ignorance to remove and which, if he is at all self-respecting, he would not remove if he could.

"No Nordic Supremacy" Bishop Hughes Chicago, Sept. 4. (P.N.S.)—Bishop Edwin Holt Hurges of the Chicago area of the Methodist Episcopal Church calls the claim of Nordic superiority nonsense. In addressing the first session of the Central Swedish Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church here last Wednesday night, he said: It is not Anglo-Saxon blood, but the blood Jesus Christ that has made what we see. There is much being said at this time about Anglo-Saxon superiority. It was not so long ago, our ancestors came out of the crests of Europe and when they wanted a deer, they did not stop to cook it, but they ate the raw flesh.

E. Hatcher Jasper Describes The Plague On Pharah I have always liked fine speaking Critter has a resistless charm for the sun and sank them down to sequence that day. I know no what eloquence is. He painted scene after scene. He lifted the people to the sun and sank them down to despair. He plucked them out of hard places and filled them with shouting. As long as I live all that Red Sea business with Egypt and the long Hovenry and Sarah and his great legions and the sea and the ruin and the great deliver- ance are mine to keep as long as my mental powers can act. True, Jasper made me ridiculous three of four times by so convulsing me with laughter that I wanted to roll on the floor, but it didn't make me Celibous but I never knew that wit was such a deep and serious thing before. The old orator had to stop "to blew" an awlhe, and it was a stricly original noishe he made, as he reshuffled his exhausted lungs with a fresh supply of oxygen. The rush of fear "blow" an awlhe in the window and could have been perhaps to brighten with a smile. All at once his face began to brighten with a smile, which almost amounted to an illumination. He looked up at her with a reservoir. Gord's keen way we wurryn' "hare" inter lettin' His people go." I am a failure on dialect, but this part of the afternoon's entertainment came with such surprise that it was photographed on my memory. A way it can never be blotted out. Just as he can never be blotted out, which he asserted that God sent up on the Egyptian monarch, declaring that as Pharoa was too much of a brute to hear reason or to feel afraid, the Lord decided to tease and torment him with reptiles and snakes. Yet he was not, my brudderd, his skelme did be duziness for Pharo. He kum frum ridin' one day an' wen he gin in de pallis de hole hall is full uv frogs, Dey iz 'sempermir' and hoplin' 'roan tel dey farly kivur de groun' an' put his big foot an' umph the damnah!

Wen he sot down, he fed de frogs squarmin' in de clare of frogs on de sides, squattin' up on de meat, just out of bread, an' we he pl's his gas' ter drink de water. I'll be frogs is swamain' in de.

Pharo' say he wud, but he wuz an awful liar: jes' es dey tel me dat mes' ur de pollishshun iz." Looks At Legislation Just then my cagrant eye caught the string of legislators who had high goals in the synagogue, and it looked to me as if every Negro in that seething town was sampling the meal prepared with the men they took on an awfully silly look; or rather I think it was on most of them before. "I can't pickshur up all dem plagues, but I mus' give you more 'sperance, uv den british people the plague," he said with a Hebrew folk.

His This is a sample. Jasper's imagination was like a pretie on fire. The excitement in the congregation was of a new order; he was tickling them in a new spot or rather in a room, and he was in the house was almost like the rear of a tempest. I never was in such a conglomerate mood. His picture of the plagues convulsed me with laughter.—would have killed me dead. I verily believe, but for the counteracting effect of the horror excited in me, I was in that that, the trials of the Hebrew slaves loomed up before me all the time. I was so consciously pitying them, and anxious to get my fingers on the damnable throat of the tyrann. I knew what that was, and I was sort of feelings at the same time. It seemed to me that the strain would have to be ended without going further.] But Jasper wasn't done, and things were coming on which it was impossible to foresee. Suddenly I found Jasper on a new trail. This was the most important assignment of Isaac. I discovered that Jasper could talk quite grammatically when he was on his digram; but, when he struck the abandon and hawness of his imagination, he dropped back into his dialect and then he was at his greatest. He was a monster of ponds and sessipidian words. He rolled them under his tongue, save when the words themselves sometimes rolled his tongue up, and when he hit sessipidian words, he rolled them under a thoughtful mule smile. But the word was a bit of fun to bring up his crowd and to keep new things in his fancy. Jasper's picture of Abraham in the flavour of a pearl. He stood him up on a lofty priest's mattein him as a man without a vice—the pink of a gentleman, the prince of his tribe, the companion of the Lord God, the faithful father and the Father of the Faithful. Since he was a man of great feel that I have done something mean, and want to give my moral nature a set up. I recall Jasper's poem on Abraham. One third of the college students fail to get a degree, says Professor Ben Wood, of Columbia University, for the 500 different languages in the world.

LESSON --- 14 OKLAHOMANS WORTH OVER HALF MILLION Vice President of Business League Discovers Near Millionaires WEALTHY NOW, WERE SLAVES OF INDIANS Tulsa, Okla. — Despite the millions of dollars which colored people in Oklahoma possess, little of it is in their control racially. In most cases, as Vice-President Bert M. Roddy, of the National Business League, pointed out, the government has ignored the glared wards of the county and incompetent to handle their estates. The result is that white men are appointed as trustees and handle the money very largely to suit themselves. Mr. Roddy said he had met four courteous men who could count their pretenses at better than half a million dollars. It is interesting to know how these unbelieved and in many cases, simple, people came into possession of their wealth. Before, the civil war, wealthy Indians living in Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee, held the land that the tribe had when the government desired those lands opened to civilization, they moved the red skins to the two territories, Oklahoma and Indiana Territory. Later, the state of Oklahomaaking a treaty with the Indiansat that time, which read that they could have the land as long as "water run and grass grew green,"which was the Indian's manner of interpreting forever. The civil war brought to lose their shaves, fought on the side of the South. At its close to punish them, the Ichee Sam revoked their treaties settling so much land upon each Indian, they, homebound, to be beards of the government. It was decreed that the former shaves of the Indians were to share in the distribution, under plan which the tribes should leave. The Creeks, the dark Indians, who intermarried a deal with the Nogees, gave an equal share. The very white Indians, such as the Sioux, but not a part of the land, when the land was allotted, the ex-shares for the most part, received the worst hand available, but that proved to be the very land which rich oil and mineral deposits upon it. Home, the dizzy array of some fortune ones have obtained. Many of them have been cheated out of their holdings by the unfair county laws designed for that purpose, and the mercy on have been made on the land on which they wished their patrimony. A newer type of farmers is coming to real farmers, who, moving into the state, bought land, on which oil has hardened farmers from the East soot, and they are a house their money to good use.

Lovelace (Professor of Insurance, New York University) How comfortable one feels when involved in an automobile accident, he remembers, in a flash, his automobile insurance. Grown slightly inattentive as the miles slip by on a fine road where, there seems to be no officer to offload the smashes into another that has darted out of nowhere, right into the midst of you. Maybe no one is hurt, but the cars may be ready for the repair man or the junk shop. After everybody has crawled out of the house, whose fault is it? Of course it's the other fellow's fault, whichever one of you is talking. In any case, no one admits any blame. If one is insured and the other isn't it is a good guess that one is insured and the other one isn't; and I don't need to tell you which one isn't. But there will be a showdown, possibly in court, and the blame will be fixed. Even though you don't know that you are "gullible" and that there are damages to pay. Lucky you are if you smashed up only a decadent Henriel, 8 or 10 years old. But if the victim is your 19-year-old it may cost a lot of money to restore it to normal. Adequate Coverage Needed In such a situation the property damage coverage afforded by an insurance company may be insufficient. If it is large enough. The property damage provision in your policy applies to damage to the property of others caused by your automobile—but not to your own Most people are content with $1,000 property damage protection. In the majority of cases it will be enough. But frequently the holder of a $1,000 property damage coverage will be injured after an accident, that the amount of damages awarded against him is $2,000 or $3,000 or $5,000, and he must pay the excess over $1,000. The other day I heard of a man who, although he carried only $1,000 property damage, had the bad judgment to run his automobile in a car accident, which was a total wreck. The damage awarded was about $3,000. The owner was obliged to pay $2,000 out of "Masterpiece Of Reported To N Governor Sam A. Baker Wou The Mater." Petition B "Masterpiece Of Legal Murder" Reported To N A A C P In Mo. Governor Sam A. Baker Wouldn't "Worry or Bother Over the Mater." Petition By White Citizens Ignored New York—What is described as a "murder of legal murder" is reported to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People as having occurred in Missouri, on July 18, when James Crump was hanged, despite sworn statements of reputable white man that he had not had a fair trial, and that the local mob had only permitted the legal force to be enacted upon assurance that Crump would have been arrested upon assurance that Crump was rapidly forcing to the front in one of the leading lynchings States, the latest public murder having occurred at Excelsior Springs, on August 7th. The legal murder of James Crump is reported by the St. Louis Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. to have occurred as a consequence of his being accused killing in the fire in the affair, who would be his rival in the affactions of a colored woman. PETITIONS Mr. Kenswil states that H. H. Sturgeon, a white man who attended the trial at Montgomery City, personally presented to Gov. Baker a petition signed by upwards of 30 white citizens who believed Crump to have had no fair trial. Mr. Kenswil further states Gov. Baker warned him before his interview "that anything I might say will have no effect upon him." Charles R. Hall, a reputable white attorney of Montgomery City, writes: He (the Governor) was dead set and finally told him he would not grant him a stay of execution for even one minute. I was worse than disgusted at his conduct. Gov. Baker himself wrote in a letter of July 7: "the Governor does not intend to worry or bother over the matter at all." It is charged that a white lawyer who had Crump's case, abstained it in mid-trial, that another lawyer appointed by the court had missed many opportunities favorable to his client; and that a colored lawyer had accepted more than one of the positions of the sole of her home, and had merely mulled a belief to the Supreme Court. The case was twice reviewed and decided against Crump by the State Supreme Court. Of the trials at Jefferson City and Mexico, Mo., the report to the N. A. A. C.诉, states that both places had only been made possible without murderous interruptions by the populace by official assurance that conviction would be annulled. Moreover, "At both trials, the common public expression was that anything less than a death sentence would be executed of Crump by white citizens, who were in both instances numerously on hand and blunt of the crime." And the request at both trials laughed down the request that St. Louis, Kansas City or other towns outside the atmosphere of prejudice against, and hatred of, Crump be the seat of his crimes. SWORN TESTIMONY Attorney Edwin F. Kensilw, of the local N. A. A. C. P. Legal Committee, prepared sworn testimony of reputable white citizens and went to go Governor Baker, who allowed him only two minutes and abruptly terminated the audience by leaving the room and shamming the door. "A large volume of postitions, protests, etc., the report to the N. A. Governor, the Governor up to the night before the day of execution. This stream poured from Montgomery County whites of doing anything with the Governor, early in the time following Crump's conviction, we consulted with the Federal Court, to be done with the Federal Court, Mr. Kenswil to Montgomery City for a transcript of the record of trial including the testimony. For the first time, the court with very competent attorneys—eight or him—again and again, seeking something that would justify Judge Davis in issuing a writ of habeas corpus. . . . The official lawyer, at Montgomery and made the plea that Judge Davis had conformed neatly with every legal requirement. Just as the change of venue had been granted, the judge said, "Just as fast so had they been perfectly regular in the trial at Montgomery, giving the defendant everything that was due him—exact justice. He described us as "a mass of contradictory and unbelievably unreasonable testimony." Mrs. Jas. H. Dennis James T. Dennis THE OLD RELIABLE CUT RATE UNDERTAKER Edward Kelson, Mgr. BALTIMORE, MD. 1303 Presstman Street Phones, MAdison 3078 Is Your Auto Insured? Is Your Auto Insured? Nobody Thinks of It Until He Is In a Collision The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly his own pocket, in addition to the $1,000 which the company paid. Nothing is more foolish than the owning and driving of an automobile without insurance protection against the property damage, and the next most important thing to carry inadequate limits. Of course, as a rule, the costs of accidents are not great; but it isn't so much the little ones that we need insurance for, as it is the big ones. Applies To Other Property, Too. Property damage coverage protects the cost of damages your car may cause to other automobiles, but also the cost of damages to any kind of property belonging to other people. Not long ago in New York, an automobile mounted the curb and leaped across the sidewalk through the street, and came to an abrupt halt in the midst of an astonished and frightened group of shoppers. The wreckage represented a large loss. I have seen the photograph of an automobile that, plotted by an autorally licensed driver, it a turn in the road dashed up the walk of a dwelling house, climbed the front steps and grasped into the living room. It is easy to see that such accidents, of which there are a good many, are very rare. Recently noted examples of property damage are: Thirty, feet of ornamental rolling on a new bridge, torn away by an automobile in an attempt to avoid a collision; a large clock mounted on a decorative front door; dethroned by a big sidar; an expensive new grand piano being carried into a house wrecked by a too-soleable automobile truck. Two Items Phantom 1. Two items of automobile coverage have been noted: (1) Public liability (described in recent article), the most important of all, because it protects the policyholder against damages awarded for the injury or death of a person by his car; and (2) property damage. Property damage is certainly next in importance to public liability protection. It may also be desirable to protect yourself from property protection which will repay you for various damages to your own car, but the danger of injuring or killing some one or of damaging an automobile is essential in automobile insurance. PETITIONS Mr. Kenswil states that H. H. Sturgeon, a white man who attended the trial at Montgomery City, personally presented to Gov. Baker a petition signed by upwards of 30 white citizens, who believed (crump to have had) no effect upon him. Mr. Kenswil further states Gov. Baker warned him before his interview "that anything I might say will have no effect upon him." Claude R. Hall, a reputable white attorney of Montgomery City, writes: "I was wrong against 'crump' and finally told me that he would not grant him a stay of execution for even one minute. I was worse than disgusted at his conduct." Gov. Baker himself wrote in a letter of July 7: "the Governor does not intend to be or bother over the matter at all."

On December 11st, and to insure the success of the drive, Miss Sophia H.

The plan further embodies the division of the country into seven regional districts, with the following chairman: Dr. H. H. Proctor, New York; Dr. J. M. Bunny, Petersburg, Va.; James Robinson, Cincinnati, Ohio; Dr. F. A. Stewart, Chicago; Dr. M. S. Jasenburger, Fort Smith, Arkansas. Many of the alumni present at the meeting pledged large sums toward the fund, among whom were Dr. H. J. Proctor, $1,500; Dr. M. Doute, $1,000; Dr. M. McClellan, $600 cash.

These bronzes give the lie direct to those who are able that the native African is not capable of high artistic feeling. The Library. The library of the museum is a drab looking circular hall, with a great dome, lacking the palatial beauty of the Congressional Library. However, it is one of the most nearly complete in existence, and the mecca for the tourists from the lands of the earth. To enter this library a card of admission is necessary. Other Places And so I could go on naming place after place of interest, as St Paul's Cathedral, now undergoing extensive repairs; the Crystal Palace, Buckingham Palace, the Museum of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons, the homes of Bryon, Shakespeare, Carlyle, Duxbury, Trafalgar, Sumner, Nation House, the Sunday fair, Limbo-house, with its Chinese—almost every race on earth lives in London and lives peacefully—the Nation-Borough Gallery, and so on, would space permit. Hyde Park No description of London, however, would be complete without mention of Hyde Park. Here, near the marble arch entrance, nearly grey creep and seed in London, grows a variety of low-lying palaces and anti-catholics; Protestant and anti-Protestants; Communists, and their foes; Fascists; Socialists and anti-Socialists; Christians, Agnostics, Hindus, Negroes, Jews and expatriates and expatriates from the fricas patios, forth at full blast, while topping all is the singing of the Salvation Army. To understand the babel that ensues, it is necessary to know that all the houses are less than two hundred yards square. The most interest fact for the philosopher is the manner in which these opposing creeds hold forth, giving the impression that to each such only, is revealed the mind of God.

Fat Oklahoman Laughed Himself Out of a Job Under Taft Tulsa, Okla.—(ANP)—One of the picturesque figures of the convention was A. G. W. Sungo, genial, handsome and wide girded pioneer of Oklahoma. Dark as ebony with snow white hair, youthful features in the dance, a laugh which carries for six blocks and a penchant for whispering beautiful poetry in idoles music. Mr. Sungo was a native of Oklahoma and was urged by the entire Oklahoma delegation for Recorder of Deeds under the Taft administration. The president sent for Sungo, who in his early days was one of the wealthy men of the state and conferred with him. He was much impressed and was just about to announce the appointment when some one told a joke. That thunderous laugh of Sungo's rung out, it reverberated echoed, and re-echoed through the White House Office Building. "We were all in a jubilant mood," he whispered to the Senator from Oklahoma, and that's how a laugh stood between A. G. W. and a post of national honor. "Watch Dollars After They're Spent," Says C.

However, when the queen's equine swept by amid hats and ohs, and the beautiful queen and her charming attendants have in sight, the president came in for a good deal of matured clashing because of his loss.

This would include organization and ministration. For insurance, the following matters should go directly to Mr. Wogtier; suggestions for changes in fac- ilities; requests of teachers for transfers Requests of principals for peri- plication substitutes.

You have been accustomed to take up with members of the superintendent's staff. This does not mean, of course, that principals, supervisors and teachers from galloping schools are debarred from galloping over their problems with members of the superintendent's staff.

The Negro, in fact, has not only minority status, and even more decidedly from present to precedent. For the past three years, in particular, the light seeding of the boll weevil, while the counties of the Black Belt, where there have always been more Negroes than Anglo-Saxons, have shown a marked decrease in Nexro population. The Negro who has stayed in the South has, in the local house, already smoothed something, even better. Either he has wished his wives and demanded wages commensurate with it, or he has established himself in business, often in a professional capacity, to be a much smaller client for ever his guady needs. In his off hours he struts us as a leader, in his dawg, with mono, in exchange places with Honey, T. Hissel T. Call VErnon 6016 UPERVIS GOOD MOR GOOD MORNING JUDGE The Afro Court Reporter The next time that Nathaniel Johnson, 1333 Lafayette avenue, wants to beat his wife he will pick a better job. He will go to the police Station to do it. They say experience is the best teacher, but Johnson learned that she charges well for her course when he was fined $100 a month. Court was just closing about 10 a.m. Monday morning when a commotion on Pennsylvania avenue brought an officer to the scene, the sight that greeted them was Johnson pounding his wife, Mary. "Your Honor," declared the husband when he was ushered into the courtroom. "I saw you walk into this below me, but she wouldn't go back." "No judge," chimed in Mrs. Johnson. "I know he didn't mean to hurt me; you see we always play like that." Placing him in the courtroom, she told the judge, "I am going to join in and tag your husband with a $10 fine." I think that she rightly judged him, said the wife, "because I didn't yell because he hurt me. I just got scared whenever I see a policeman and he was trying to keep quiet." They were getting off lucks," said the judge, "but now I am going to dine you for lying; $6 and costs." A Judge is not always a hard-bolled cuss just waiting to plants a life. Sometimes, they are regular human beings. John Rice, age 6, 11 W. Biddle Police Station Tuesday morning. For several weeks a fruit stand in Lexington and the curbits would always pass up the imported fruits and only carry off the watermelons. Late summer, the others was seen in the vicinity of the market lugging a large juicy melon. When a patrolman found their garden and took to their heels, rice who was not quite as fleet of foot as his companions landed in the lock "Your Honor," said Rice. "I didn't mean to break the law, but the gang invited me to join in a watermoon least and I just couldn't reconfirm." "Lock him up," said the judge, "waving to the turnkey and pounding the helmet, this petty刀器 must stop." After the boy had left the courtroom the judge turned to the Desk Scargerman and asked, "What good old days when I was a kid. A watermoon didn't taste good unless you swiped it, and 'ray' he added, to the question, "Chase him out of here. His base is dismissed."

He was Educational Publisher, 24 N. Gilmor street, said of Mr. Brown, yesterday: "He was possessed of natural talents beyond his body and they was no longer in life before boyhood day. It was not until he had reached the age of perhaps twenty years that he left his home and found a position elsewhere. "He became associated with the H. M. Rowe Company at the time its organization in 1898, he added to another until he became head shipper to the company. He continued steadily in its service for a period of 27 years, the officers of the company but of all the employees. "No man ever lived exhibited a higher degree of absolute honesty and integrity in all that he said and "He possessed an extraordinary personality.

The "Music Lovers" Association" of which he was conductor and director in the Bethel Church, frequentest musician of the foremost musicians in the city. No creed predominated in his audiences. Frequently, his facial expressions, demeanor, and crateries which his organization interpreted, showed forth in exalted civility the tremendous sensations of harmony which swayed his auditory senses. "This is a two tribute coming from those who worked with him, who approach him with happiness and pleasure he contributed, and from those who measured him for the man he was. He has left memories and a legacy of men he must be proud of. "I have taken pleasure in saying these things because he was my boy, the little ignorant country boy, when I first met him. I am proud of his accomplishments for his own sake: I am proud of his accomplishments for his own sake: I am proud of his accomplishments for his own sake: I am proud of his accomplishments for the sake of his race; and I am proud to have been known, as his father." He is survived by a brother, Oliver and two sisters.
