Sweet last September 9th. James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People who attended the trial, telegraphs that women sobbed in the courtroom and tears run down the checks of men when the verdict was announced. Darrow Chief Attorney Clarence Darrow's plea was "the most powerful and moving plea I ever listened to" telegrams Mr. Johnson, and Attorney Thomas W. Chinkwe's (white) "masterful knowledge of the criminal law" that assisted in his second trial, Julian W. Perry, Mr. Johnson telegrams he was "of real service in this case." Telegraph Mr. Johnson also telegraphs as follows: "When it was announced that the jury had reached a verdict after only four hours' of deliberation, there was surprise and relief. The verdict of Not guilty was rendered visiting women sobbed audibly and tears run down the cheeks of men. It is more than probable that no other cases will be tried. This ends one of the most vital fights ever waged for justice." First Trial The first trial of the Sweet case resulted in a jury disagreement. In this second trial it was arranged to have each one of the eleven defendants tried separately. Henry Sweet was selected by the prosecution to stand trial first as the case against him was being considered. In view of his acquittal, it is unlikely the State will try any of the other defendants. High Point The Sweet case has been the dramatic high point of the fight against segregation in America, with the U. S. Supreme Court winning with the Louisville case, won before the U. S. Supreme Court in 1917, outlawing all State and, mutually, segregating the two other states. Another case the series was taken by the N. A. A. C. P. before the U. S. Supreme Court this year when the Washington Sugar Company was argued by Mersers. Buckley was argued by Mersers. Louis Marshall and Moorfield Storey, urging that segregation by agreement against property owners was unconstitutional. Home a.

Jenkins its enewer power to bear on this case, sending upwards of $21,000 on the first trial, retaliating the ablest criminals in the country. The案庭 Burrow of Chicago, and associating with him Arthur Garfield Hayes, the trial rough estimates indicate that the cost will be at least $16,600, bringing the total of the two trials very close to the total Michigan's aboriginal criminal lawyer. W. Chauke and a colored attorney, Julian W. Perry, were associated with, Mr. $71,619 Fund in the course of the legal battle the N. A. A. C. p. undertook to raise a Legal Defense Fund to cov- ernance the war in Iraq and legal defense cases, raising up to March 12, the sum of $71,615, contributions pouring in not only from every part of the United Stat- ter, Europe and the West Indies as well. Self-Defense Both trials have profoundly affected public opinion on segregation in America. The first trial in its presentation of the Negro in America throughout the country swung deent sentiment in favor of the defendants. The right of self defense in his home has been exclusively established in Negro America. 101 High School Graduates KANSAS CITY, KANS. — One hundred and one boys a.m. and graduate from Summer high school junior college and teachers college May 27th.

During this time three candidates for the presidency, all of them white Presbyterian pastors, have been turned down. Two of these were virtually appointed by the office but later refused to assume office when they found out the opposition of the alumni had crystallized against them. Efforts of the alumni to secure the appointment of one of their members on the board of trustees and the appointment of colored persons on the faculty of the universi- A resolution of the board of trustees covering this matter is as follows: "Obviously the trustees would be gifted if they could feel it for the best interest of the university to accede to the wholly natural desire of the alumni for a voice in the government of their university. They require that they can have such action to be wise. They have given most serious consideration to the matter during many months before arriving at a decision." L. Wright, white, professor of mathematics at the university, is now acting president. All members of the faculty and all members of the trustee board are white persons. The university was founded and is supported by the Presbyterian church. The alumni plan a meeting June 14th at which the problems affecting the university will be discussed in an effort made to arrive a solution.

ANTILYNCHING BILL REJECTED BY COMMITTEE Senate Group Refuses, 9-3, To Report McKinley Measure REPUBLIGAN AND DEMOCRATS DIVIDE Borah, Means, Harreld, Deneen, G. O. P. Senators Voted "No" WASHINGTON, D. C. The Senate Judiciary Committee by a vote of 9 to 3 declined, Tuesday, in executive session to report the McKinley Anti-Lynching bill. Two Republicans and one Democrat voted for a favorable report and four Republicans and five Dem- crains received it. Critics voted against These senators voted "Yes": Ernest, Republican, Kentucky. Cummins, Republican, Iowa. Ashurst, Democrat, Iowa. Their vow: "No!" Borah, Republican, Idaho. Meagan, Republican, Colorado. Harreld, Republican, Oklahoma. Dewey, Republican, Illinois. Overman, Democrat, North Carolina. Reed, Democrat, Missouri. Walsh, Democrat, Montana. Cook, Democrat, Arkansas. King, Democrat, Utah. The bill is similar to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill passed by the House some years ago but still is reported to a fillibuster of southern senators. Friends of the measure declare that the bill is not dead and that they will be able to fillibuster it reported by the Senate Judiciary Committee. The McKinley bill would make Lynching a federal crime. Any county in which a mob to pay a ransom would be required to forfeit $10,000 to the estate of the victim and any sheriff or county officer who permitted a mob to pay a ransom might be subjected to a term of five years and a fine of $5,000. Two or more persons would constitute a mob. The Ashurst confirmed Tuesday outside the chambers of the Senate, standing in the tapiplot of newspaper men, authenticity of the memo. Senator McKinley who introduced this bill last December was away, on a vacation in Florida. Colonel Smith who defended him recently in Washington when the measure came up. Senator Harreld who favored the bill all along thought it unwrite to another fillibuster and voted against it. Senator Reed proposed 'killing the bill for all time instead of postponing it another week,' so the mentor was killed. He was either absent or unwilling to vote. He was recorded, among the nine against the bill. On the other hand, he was not recorded in the support of the confirmative of James A. Cobb as Judge. Won $500 Newspaper Prize NEW YORK—Cyril A.

AFRICAN KING NO FAKE SAYS JOHN DAVIS LEWISTON, ME.-Reports that Chief Amoah III who recently visited this country coming from England was a fake we were denied by John Davis, student of Bates College and president of the Debating Club for the APRO-AMERICAN today. He said: "It would be a difficult thing for me to deny the statement made by a newspaper so close to the source of the evidence as the Gold Coast West African Independent. Chief Amoah III was introduced to me as Mr. K. H. Tandoh by Mr. Robert H. Broadhurst, former secretary of the Gold Coast African Federation and a delegate to the Pan African Conference: in London. Mr. Broadhurst is a gentleman in whom I have implicit confidence. The only reason I can assign for the Gold Coast African Federation is an ignorance malice. The latter reason is not the most improbable. Africans whom I met both in London and Paris were inolateral; jealous of the injustice from us, I have heard an identical statement. "During my conversation with Mr. Tandoh, I had two at his residence in London, he mentioned an incident of his tribe as to his legitimate right to the throne, or to stool, as it is called. He also showed me a stenographic report, the duplicate of the proceedings against him before the British representatives. "These, attempts to de-stool him were unsuccessful. It may be that this paper, hitting upon this half-hearted has been guilty of exaggeration." VARE WINS PHILA.—"Southwark wank Vare has apparently won the G. O. P. award for best presentation. He presents Senator George W. Pepper and Governor Pinchot. Vare's hold on the common people, his stand for light wines and beer, his defense of Pepper and Pinchot leaders are reasons for the victory. Many also opposed Pepper's advocacy of the anti-communist slogan of "Stand by Coolidge."

THE AFRO A Market Place for the People Read for Profit—Use for Results WHITE SLAYER NOW DECLARED ONLY INSANE NOEL, N. J.—Harrison W. Noel, white, sentenced to death for the brutal murder of Raymond Pierce, taxicab driver, and Mary Daly, a white child, victim in an attempted kidnapping, won a new trial this week on the ground of insanity. The crimes were committed near Montclair, N. J. The Court of Errors and Appeals by a vote of 12 to 1 granted the appeal from conviction on the ground that Noel was insane at the time of the murder was committed and was still technically an unchallenged inmate of the Overbrook Asylum. The plea of insanity was set up during the trial and it was declared the prisoner was in a mental state to stand trial. At Patterson N. J., the county prosecutor declared that the reversal of the Elex County conviction does not mean Noel's acquittal. If the Elex county authorities fail to move for the retrial he will have to have the youth brought to Passic County for trial on the charge of killing the child. Noel has been in the death house since he will now be removed to another cell. CHICAGO WHIP LOSES SUIT FOR LIBEL CHICAGO, (A. N. P.) (By Telegram).—Chandler Owen and A. Philip Randolph, editors of the Messenger Magazine, New York City, were found not guilty of conspiracy of libel by jury before Judge Gummell here Tuesday. Judge instructed for not guilty verdict but held there was cause for libel if Owens could not prove statements made. Joseph D. Bibb, editor of Chicago Whip who brought Owens to trial will institute civil suit for libel. Owens-Randolph were represented by Seymour Stedman. Chandler Owen wired the AFRO as follows: Judge William Gemilh threw the "Whip" case against Owen, and Randolph out of court for lack of evidence after about twenty witnesses testified for Bibb. "Not a bit of evidence to support conspiracy," says Judge. The criminal libel proceedings were instituted when the "Messenger" articles alleged the "Whip" had owed curried stories giving names, dates and places, involving occasions in which they alleged the "Whip" took money from gambling Owens curried stories under promise not to expose them. In addition the "Messenger" articles alleged the "Whip" had owed curried stories to blackmail the C. J. Walker Co., Liberty Life Co., and Overton Co.

PERRY HOWARD BLAMED FOR CAPITAL ILLS. G. O. P. Committeeman Charged With Blocking All Appointments DAVIS AND COBB STILL UNCONFIRMED Activities With Pullman Company and Dupont Are Also Cited WASHINGTON, D. C.— (Special)—All the political ills from which the capital of the nation now suffers are being laid at the door of Perry Howard, G. O. P. national committeeman from Mississippi. Mr. Howard is also assistant to the United States' Attorney General. Political wisecares declare that it is Mr. Howard who has prevented the Republican National Committee so far from confirming the appointment of Benjamin F. Davis of Atlanta, as national committeeman Georgin. At the death of Henry Lincoln Johnson over a year ago, Mr. Davis was elected by Georgia State Central Committee to ill out the unexpired term. More recently, he was reelected by the national committee but was nominated by the national committee has failed to take any action. Reason for Mr. Howard's action in this matter, more recently, was reelected by the national committee by himself and would not like to share it with any other colored leader. Mr. Hoyne was the authority in the national committee with Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, Democrat, is believed to be at the bottom of this senator's action in blocking the concession of the C. municipal judge to fill the place left vacant by the judge Judge Terrell. Mr. Cobb was confirmed almost unanimously by the Senate, sometime ago, but the next day that body voted to reconsider the matter upon the objections of Senator Pat Harrison. Reason for Mr. Howard also point out the fact that he has been in the way of the progress of his race by accepting a $7,000 from the Puritan Company in its plan to block the organization of pullman porters into a labor union. His now famous letters to Senator Harrison express the impression that he took credit for blocking the anti-lynching bill when it came before the Senate two years ago, is cited as evidence of Mr. Howard's reprehensible politics. Friends of Tuskegee Institute and Dr. Moton were busy here a month ago, and the influence of Mr. Howard's office was being lent to create a situation at the S. Veterans' Hospital (Continued on Page Seven). CITY EDITION and D. C.—10c elsewhere MRS. A.

On several occasions she was forced to seek refuge in the home . friends during her husband's outbursts of tem- Tells of Abnormality A sensation was caused in the court room when she stated that her husband frequently beat her that night, and she desired in an aboral way. Her story concerning these attacks, due to the delicate nature of the testimony, was taken behind closed doors. When asked by Attorney Payne to give the reason for her husband's treatment, she replied that she was accustomed to excessive drinking and loneliness. He worked but two of their eighteen years of married life, she stated. He lived off his income and worked in the bedrooms and saloons, she declaimed. Treated Bruise. Dr. Harry S.

Jones corroborated the testimony of Lawyer Hampton but was not able to say whether Mrs. Thomas fell down; stairs or was Deciles Familiarity The question raised by Lawyer Curran as to why Mrs. Thomas went to the dance with Dr. Jones, was explained by Mrs. Sallie Logan and Mrs. Sadie Murphy. Mrs. Murphy was a member of the same club and the latter had asked to go with her and her husband. Because one of the children forgot to deliver a telephone message, a member of the club after waiting quite a while Mrs. Thomas accepted the invitation to go to the dance in Dr. Jones' car in company with Irs.

Alumnus Says His First Task Is To Deal With Fraternities Which Have Become A CURSE To The University. Greek Letter Organizations A Menace Br ALUMNUS Permanent peace between the trustees, and the alumni is budding. If carefully nurtured (and the way the gardeners), the flower will soon be in full bloom. A conference has been held between the trustees and the alumni, and the alumni have been directed towards concord. Regardless of the final settlement, the trustees have initiated a movement towards harmony and this forward looking step has been the earliest approval and congratulations. The Alumni Committee composed of the Reverend George Frazier, President of the General Alumni Institute of I. H. T. B. Deyet, Geore E. Hall, Thomas A. Johnson, and the Reverend Scott Wood, the newly appointed president, to fill the unexpired term of the late Dr. William A. Sinclair. No Names The alumni set forth their vows on the qualifications of the person they felt ought to be selected president of Howard University. They made no attempt to name the alumni and standardized and professionalized qualifications. The Nominating Committee gave the alumni a positive assurance that a thorough canvass will be made of the selection of a president who will wear the measurements of their requirements. The trustees intimated that another meeting between the two groups may be called before a final selection is made. Harmony The trustees enriched a most sympathetic attitude towards the suggestion of the alumni. The conference was entirely harmonious. This is, indeed, the best message the trustees have since he began helping to make Howard safe for education. The writer wants to see the trustees and the alumni hitting on all six. Once they have been given direction, the public will surely fall into line and Howard greatness will be realized. An estranged alumni association, a dogmatic trustee board, and a group of alumni form the ingredients of an institutional mess. The get-together idea cannot be applauded too loudly. Trustees And Alumni Of course, this harmonious meeting may be the lull before the storm, but it was a wonderful gath- ering experience. You can sit around the same table and exchange views on matters pertinent to the development of the university, some genuine benefit is like to follow. Obviously all of the grievances are going to be remedied; but if a thoroughly competent president is selected, most of their grievances will vanish overnight. Gentlemen The lips of the conference are sealed. They have made a gentlemen's agreement to hold the peace with the gentleman. News leaking, from such conferences is likely to be viciously distorted, serving no other purpose than to inflame partisans. The gentleman is respected and the slip-mongers will not invent imaginary tales about what went on in that conference. The trustees and the alumni should be permitted to work together with the emulsion resulting from perilicious inventions. The public, therefore, will have to wait for that fateful (or fatal) message announcing the new president, is no secret. He is not a person already opposed to the proposition to make Dr. Moorland president of Howard University. They are opposed to any candidate with such vulnerable qualifications, and are not a person already certified as having reached the age of diminishing activity. It may be assumed therefore, that masseuse is not a person who has been harmonious, Dr. Moorland's candidacy has been abandoned. When the press conveyed the news of the conference between the two, but favorable comment was heard. If the trustees will only follow up this laudable move, with genuine action, they will surely regain much confidence, so help to revive Howard University from a pedagogical coma. Conferences The writer advised in earlier articles just such a conference as has been held. A critic in North Carolina wrote that the conference to the inimitable Dr. James Sheppard, advocated a conference of this kind, and some weeks ago Dr. Sterling Brown of the School of Religion saw real merit in such a conference. The writer now hopes that the trustees are not playing the game of a late educator of renown who made mind and mind and conference flutter the conferences that they were really taking a part in the decision. The public will not stand for any such coup. A real and not a nominal need is need. I at Howard University. Howard University needs a president who can dispense with the services of the so-called standing committee, as the "sitting committees." The man who accepts the position ought to request that the standing committee follow the lead of the Junior College and the College of Commerce and Finance to the dump heap. Colonial Machinery Howard University is decidedly modern in announcement but still colonial in machinery. The trustees are trying to employ the kind of machinery that modern education is. A big university is the educational representative of big business and must be run on the same basic principles. If the directors meddle too much with the operation, the business is liballed into the hands of a resolver. The trustees ought to realize this fact and select as president a man who is a competent executive officer, delegate authority to him, and, for commensurate with his power. This is the only way that Howard University or any other university can function properly. Durkee Wrote The trustees cannot wisely interfere and concern themselves with details of organization and execution. When Dr. Durkee wrote a HOWARD ALUMNI AND TRUSTEES Congressman and the St. Louis Academic, describing how the Executive and Budget Committees wrestled with their problem last summer at the University, and upon the professors to be economized out of Howard, he unwittingly advised the world that the trustees of Howard University have a gross misconception of their duties. If any professors were to be deceived, it would be the president to make the recommendation. Under no consideration should the trustees initiate such a recommendation. Policies The trustees should pass upon policies proposed by the president, recommendations for the annual budget is one to be accepted. They should decide upon the feasibility of the president's outfit of dingits, improvements, and the like. They should be consulted on extensions and readjustment of the budget, serve the right to accept or veto recommendations for appointments, salary increases, dismissals, and decisions. They should take the initiative in such matters. Committees The standing committees, if more than a catalogue statement, make it difficult for the president to handle the issues he has to handle for permission from some committee. At least one of these committees has a weekly session to authorize the committee to call the officer. If he needs one, or stationery, or some other slight need. The aim no doubt, is to the trustees up to responsibility of running Howard University. Confidence Lacked What is likely to happen with standing committee, unless they are purely jokes, is that these committees are charged of many administrative details that should be left to the president. The creation of standing committees is a charge of confidence in their president, or portrays him as a, weakling needing their supposed assistance. Of course, they could furnish an opportunity for the president under disguise the affairs of the university. A strong educational leader does not stand committee. All he needs is a sitting board that is competent to follow him educationally and not to lead him. He understands that he can actually understand his educational program. No Initiative. No Initiative Though the trustees are responsible for the conduct of the university, they should not take the initiative, but should be sure to elect a man who is competent to draw up an educational platform and stand on it. If his platform breaks down, he should not take resolutions and press articles to sentence him to abide with his broken down platform. The writer has maintained personal responsibility for Burke's platform broke down, he was automatically out of a job at Howard University, but the trustees refused to take the writer's word for it. When their president to turn upside down and inside out an established program of American colleges. Then after his picturesque scheme he returned to the very same educational program which he found when he landed at Howard University. Reason Clear Of course, the reason is clear enough. The trustees realized that they had cut the proverbial porter and did anything inconsistent to their mistake, judgment against them will be all the more severe. Fraternity Curse Howard's next president should be a fearless being who will face the fraternity problem at Howard. Howard University is today cursed for its failure to teach these fraternity have, and they actually have some, they are a growing menace to university harmony and development. He spoke about the poor showing of the football team against Lincoln is by no means an idle one. The lack of interest in the varsity basketball team has accrued to the lack of interest of fraternity teams. The handwork of the fraternities is so obvious that professors once favorably inclined towards these Greek letter organizations are now turn- The fading administration has been helpless against these strong organizations. Instead of coping with the crisis, the administration surrendered to them. As a result, the new president is surely going to have a real problem on his hands if he goes after organizations as he should handle them. Chapter First Fraternities can render real service to a university, but they apparently refuse to render such service to students. The influence they always have become potent both at Howard and at another Negro university. A remedy must be found to cure this problem. The influence of the trustees will keep this in mind as they ponder over their candidates. After the presidency situation is cleared up at Howard, the next step is to work to increase the in press in the press is the fraternity problem. However strange the assertion may seem, the very foundation of Howard University is endangered by the fraternities. The new president, therefore, will have some very serious problems to solve with his trustees and with his students. For this reason, he will have to motivate a man on the ground who already knows conditions at Howard. It is always a serious handicap for a new man to break in on problems that are old and serious. He must be able to velop more than two ears. Ready tongues are always eager to rehash the past and to give "inside information." The writer wishes to advise the trustees that he can look over their faculty thoroughly before going abroad for their new president. It is no secret that Howard has among her teaching force some professors whose qualifications for the position cannot be surpassed. Young Scholar The next president should be like a school choir, chooses like administrative staff, Funk, and Baltimore, Md platform qualifications without other equipment are not sufficient. The trustees have tried the ministers, the educators now a day in court. If it develops that a certain group of trustees will demand a minister and another to appoint Howard University has the combination; for Howard has a professor who is a minister by training, a scholar by recognition, and a minister by mentorship. The trustees will make a serious mistake not to give very careful consideration to their faculty before importing a president who cannot match the qualifications of processors at Howard. 5 Year Term The writer feels that some young colored scholar should be given a chance to make good. Let him be selected on a five years' probationary tenure, giving him such power as is commensurable with the rest of the prophecy is that there will be a real romance at Howard University. A rumor is now affair that the Nominating Committee has held another meeting, at which time it was decided that the name of which is that of a Howard professor. This may not be more than a rumor; but if it can be taken seriously, the Nominating Committee would be the best thing in the world to draw all the trustees out on the presidency by having them vote from a list rather than accept the name presented by the Committee. Pace Says Elks' Funds Are Banked Without Interest That the battle royal of no small proportions is developing to be fought out in the election of officers of the I. B. August, is apparent to those who have followed the fortunes of this rapidly growing organization. The present Grand Exalted Ruler, J. Finley Wilson, of Washington, D. C., announced himself as a candidate for a fifth term, and is confident of his re-election. The Elkhorn no man shall serve as Grand Exalted Ruler more than four years and only two men have ever served that long since the original founder of the Order, B. F. Howard, of New York, and Howard's ambitions on the organization that came near wrecking it. Singularly enough one of the leaders in the fight against Mr. Mowry, the present Grand Secretary, George E. Bates, who had ambitions then to become Grad Exalted Ruler. But evidently Mr. Bates changed his opinion about the long tenure of officiating the Grand Secretary, as he has been in office 15 years and is desirous of holding on to that lucrative job, which now pays salary of $3,500 per year, besides salaries in a statement to the ARO office to thank "The Order of Elks has around $100,000 in cash, $60,000 of which is on deposit in two white banks on account. One of these banks is in contact with the $17,000 deposit they have had for nearly ten years, while another pays 2 per cent on $40,000 that has been for a long time. I have sought to have this money properly invested or to be distributed for deposit among the worthy banking institutions operated by our own banks, which are only two obstacles in the way. "One of these is the Grand Secretrer, Treasurer, both of whom have been in the business." Would Rather Be Slave Than Live In Haiti WASHINGTON, D. C.—The military policy of the United States in Haiti was criticized on the floor of the Senate on May 12 by Senator Kirkup and a resolution directing the foreign relations committees of the Senate to investigate claims of the Italian people and to report to the Senate a measure which would permit the government for the people of that country. "I know it is a waste of time to plead for a weak people," Senator King said. "The American people are interested in making money and benefiting from the demo the policy we are now following in that country and protest against it with all my soul. "Says He Will Fight" "The humblest people in the world are entitled to work out their own situation by acting as I am the Senate I am going to fight for the Haitian people." Senator King declared the people of Haiti originally made no objection to the intervention of millennials there but that they now regret it. "It is a sad commentary," he said, "on American government. He had rather be a slave than live under a military dictatorship, for situationally a result of such dictatorship." Referring to the recent debate over the Italian debt settlement, the Senator from Utah said, "The men in the Senate have frequently denounced the dictatorship in Italy should give a little of their enclosure to the dictatorship we have established in a neighboring Island. When we talk about revolutions in Haiti we must remember that our American troops have killed more Haitians in a year than the Haitian people have killed in two decades in their international defenses. We have 400 of that island have died at the hands of Americans." Citizens Protest Bath Beach WASHINGTON. D. C. -Citizens Advisory Council in its protest against localization of proposals bashing being colored or colored at Buzzard's Point, urged the securing of a site in northwest Wash- ington as the majority of colored people live. 5 Year Term EEN AND TRUSTEES y. Alumnus Says His me A CURSE To The Votes As the writer stated in his first article, the Negroes ought to know exactly how both the colored and the white trustees feel on this matter, and the only way they will understand their votes. We ought to know the attitude of colored leaders towards a prospective colored leader for Howard University. We are especially eager to know how black students will vote, for his own argument for patronage will surely depend upon his voting attitude towards Negro leadership. If he votes a lack of confidence in his grit, he will ultimately vote a lack of confidence in his own leadership. Retired We want to know how the white men on the board vote. If they cast their votes for a retired member of their own board, they will have training and experience to fit him to preside over a university, and pass up eminent scholars. We must also ensure that any type of president will do for a colored institution. On Trial Negro education is on trial as it has never been before. The selection will determine whether educators will run Howard University or Hopesters. It will determine if Howard University is really established for educational purposes or to furnish plums and patronage. One misstep will be fatal. Will the trustees "come clean"? HARRY H. FACE. blocked every effort to put any of this money in colored banks, except one effort made by me through the Order which I succeeded in placing $5,000 in the Wage Earners' Savings Bank of Savannah, Ga., against the opposition of both these men. The Order paid for printing during 1924-25, the sum of $3,912.05, all of which went to one firm of white printers in New York, nowwithin houses operated by the houses operated by members of the race who are also members of the Order. All of this money should have gone to colored printers. This year I am making a further endeavor to break down this program by running as a candidate for Grand Secretary against George W. Bush, and every dollar of that money will be deposited under-proper safeguard in Negro banks and that every dollar of money expended for printing advertisements shall go to colored printers."

R.'S Interstate Commerce Commission Says It Lacks Jurisdiction "ACCOMMODATIONS ARE EQUAL"—ROADS SAY Defendants Denied Any Discrimination Against Colored Passengers WASHINGTON, D. C.—Dr. E. Crosby, physician, and traveling salesman, lost his suit filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission against the St. Louis-San Francisco Railways for $120,000 damages. Other southern railroads were al-aude manned in the suit charged with undue prejudice against and reasonable prejudice against per person in colored race in favor of persons of the white race. The railroads declared the allegations, even if true, did not constitute a discrimination. They denied generally that any discrimination is practiced in any way against the colored race. On the contrary they contended that no facilities provided and are simply adequate and certainly well appointed. The Commission found evidence not sufficient to warrant them in making definite findings of undue prejudice to the colored race in particular in colored race in general. Unsatisfactory conditions in several instances were found. Says the decision, the coach accommodations found in the appointment with those furnished the white patrons and indications are that some of the station facilities may not be all that should be provided in order to avoid the charge of undue prej- "Particular attention is called to conditions which apparently exist in the home, and it can embed affecting toilets, and if it is found that complainant's statements in this respect are well founded, those conditions will be promptly removed." Complaint Dismissed The complaint was dismissed by the Commission, declaring its jurisdiction limited, in awarding damages, to the actual amount damages sustained. It had no burden sustained or punitive or exemplary damages. Salesman Crosby white working as a traving salesman, charged that between April 10, 1922, and November 1, 1924, in addition to the film accommodations similar to those for whites, pulman accommodations were relied on him and that in other ways he was subjected to the unreasonable tolls of the Invertebrate Commerce Act. The decision states further: 'While therefore, the reasonableness of such regimes, the availability of such unreasonable passenger traffic is established. It by no means follows that carriers may discriminate between white and colored passengers in the accommodations. If a railroad provides certain facilities and accommodations for first-class passengers of the white race, it is commanded by the law that the accommodations shall be provided of colored passengers of the same class.

The main cause of this situation is the problem of race discrimination in the south, the bulletin says, and the requirement should be laid upon the administrators and patrons of these schools, who have not done their full duty in studying the requirements of the states, the necessary changes in the schools, even though they entail sacrifices and personal disap- Won't Prosecute For Choking Co Won't Prosecute White Man For Choking Colored Woman NEW YORK—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has received a report from its Phoenix, Arizona, office.

INNOCENT MEN LYNCHED IN FLORIDA PARTY Mobs Use Guns, Rope, Acid; Troops Called Out By Governor LABELLE SHERIFF DEFENDS LYNCHERS Says Whites Resented Presence of Negroes Working On Roads LABELLE, F.L.A.—Because white resented the presence of Negroes working on the road, Florida, staged a double lynching last week. In this town, Henry Patterson was shot and killed by a mob Tuesday of last week. His body was paraded through the city, then being a tree on the outskirts of the town. At first he was charged with having lied to a woman. Later the woman and her friend admitted that the man only came to her house to ask for a drink of water, allowing a meeting of the grand jury troops were called out and seven white members of the mob were arrested and held without ball on the charge. The charge against each such drastic action has been taken in this part of the state. M. E. pastors scored the lynchings their sermons Sunday. They referred to it as a premeditated murder. Sherif Defends Litchfield Stirling is the only militia that the members of the militia, said that the members of the militia, whom right on their side. "This trouble has been brewing for some time, and we have been campaign down here for a bond issue to build good roads. People who were pushing the bond issue they would vote for, they would vote for it. They stirred them up with promises of plenty of work and the boys supported the bond issue so it went over big. They were the tractors imported a lot of Negroes and the voters who supported the bond issue could not get work on them. They tricked and naturally they resented the presence of the colored men here. That is the story behind this incident of persons living here who don't want Negroes working on the road." St. Petersburg Parker Watson was lynched at St. Petersburg, Fla., Sunday. He was supposed to have known the whereabouts of some stolen vehicles, two of which he built hules in it and what appeared to be acid stains on his face, Monday morning. He moled him from the officers' nightgown. There is no explanation of the fact that when he was taken from the officers he was handcuffed and when found there were no handcuffs on him. Officer could not explain the removal, so he was the key. So far as is known, the governor of the state has taken no action except to send troops. There has been no indictment of the grand jury at St. Petersburg and no arrests have been made. Y Secretary Sues ASHEVILLE, N. C.—F. D.

Both Races Benefit From "Sweet" Trial Says Darrow Eloquent Giants Fought For Hours In Sweet Case Picture 4. Later he says Mrs. Dudley entered his theatrical offices 1223 Seventh street and attempted to destroy all the books, papers, and furniture in it. in order to wreck his business. DETROIT, (PNS)—Both races will benefit from the "sweet" trial according to Clarence Darrow, Sweet's chief counsel, in a statement after his great victory. "Both Negroes and whites have to learn the lesson of forbearance," Darrow stated. "Personally, I feel that the sentiment against prejudice is growing out of the Negro's recent rise from slavery. But prejudices have to be reckoned with us much as facts." "And the whites cannot be held responsible for their prejudice for the environment. None of us is responsible for our old prejudices. The Negro must remember that it takes a long time to overcome habits and prejudices, but I feel that it will be sure but I feel that by mutual understandings and consideration rather than legislation. I believe that the outcome of this case will be a benefit to the white and the black man." DETROIT, MICH—Eloquent giants battled for hours in the Sweet case here last week. For the house was Glarreon's most noted criminal lawyer, and Thomas Chawka, head of the local bar. "Why men," he declared, "the situation had been reversed—had white men protect themselves from a black mob—there have been no prosecution. They would have been given medals. This 'testimony shows there was a ground under the this strong put the defendants in great, bodily fear, and it seemed necessary for them to act as they did." Lester S. M.孝lch assistant prosecuting attorney said he "held a brief" for Bremer, the white man killed. Darrow declared that if this were so he ought to throw the man in the ground, "the murder was there," he said, to "destroy these blacks in their homes." In his instructions to the jury the judge warned against race prejudice keeping the jurymen from making a proper verdict in the Mottons made by the defense for a mistrial due to many untrue and lying statements by the prosecutor in the case were denied. Chawke Brilliant Thomas Chawle, lawyer, defending Henry Sweet, in a most eloquent and able plea, attacked race hatred and showed right to Sweet. Ten敌-demand to defend themselves from a mob bent on lynching them. With the opening of court five motions were presented by the defender, which included 10 who not proof that all testimony except the proof of death be stricken from the records because the state failed to prove that a conspiracy had been entered into by Sweet and others. The court had shown that no proof had been shown that Sweet fired the shot that killed him. That the court direct a verdict of not guilty, that the jury be instructed not to consider charges of first degree murder, second degree murder, or manslaughter. State Erades Race Issue Lester Moll, assistant prosecuting attorney, opened the arguments for the state and attempted to convince the jury that the main issue, in the Sweet case was not the race question, but the technical guilt or innocence of Henry Sweet, according to his indictment for homicide. He said: "It is the contention of the state that Henry Sweet either did or aided or abetted the one who did fire the shot." Much has been said of a man's rights, but I wish to say that any man's most sacred right is the right to live. I am a sentimental reaction to the death of Leon Breiner and thus railroad the young Negro to jail. Raps Race Hatreds The argument of Moll and of the state was torn to shreds by Thomas Chawke, who opened the battle for the defender Chawke the entire courtroom and that the entire courtroom in complete silence. He pointed out the prejudice of race against race, the right of a man to defend his own rights, the right of every man, regardless of his color, and the right of Dr. Sweet and his 11 co-defendants to the only fair verdict that could come from the courtroom. In answering the charge of the state that this issue, Chawke said that he knew, the jury knew, the state had defended themselves, the state well that if conditions had been reversed, if 11 white men were on the inside of the attacked premises, had defended themselves as the Swets that would have done, there would be no trial. Witnesses Commit Perjury Chawke brought to light testimony which showed how the police and the witnesses who had testified for the state were involved in murder interests and the economic interests and had committed perjury. Chawke showed how three of the defenses, witnesses, who were white Kidney Flush IS HERE WHAT IS THIS MOST WONDERFUL MEDICINE KIDNEY FLUSH Why does everyone speak of it so high? What is it good for?

Benefit From I Says Darrow Excusable Honourable Explained In his charge Judge Murphy emphasized the point that excusable homicide arose only from circumstances that gave the appearance of imminent actual danger. According to Judge Murphy's charge a man had no right to resist assault with violence if he could safely retreat. On this point, however, he added, "a man is not obliged to retreat if he is assaulted in his own dwelling." Prior to making his charge, Judge Murphy denied a motion of defense counsel to declare a mistrial because of statements made in his closing arguments to the jury. The defense claimed that Toms had made an indirect reference to the Robt in Toms's statements that Sweet had not taken the stand in his own defense. This, the defense contended was prejudicial. Judge Murphy based his denial upon the grounds that he could not believe that Sweet's statements that could be construed as prejudicial to the defendant. Itts Fought For Sweet Case men and having nothing to gain from the guilt or innocence of the Sweets, gave testimony to prove that Sweet had not taken the stand in the life and property of Dr. Sweet and justified the mental state which led them to shoot in self-defense. He brought to light the inconsistency, the conflicts, the contradictions of witnesses and intimated the gross negligence of the officers in the execution of their duty towards the Sweets. He even stated that this negligence was responsible for the death of the officers, to believe that the officers of the law were in sympathy that night with the crowd and that is demonstrated by the evidence In Flaxe Falschoods Chawke said that he had practiced in courts for fourteen years and "never before had I seen so much falshood in him." Then turning to the jury, he declared: "When these witnesses said that they didn't know who spoke at the Waterworks局, they didn't know if there were people on the school grounds; that they didn't know why they joined the Association; that only 50 people were present, or that they didn't see any crowd there; that no stones were thrown—they were not speaking the Right of Self-Defense He asked the jury if they expected the Sweets to wait until the mob had swept upon them and killed them before they acted in self-defense.

"FREE" PASSES TO CLERGY CONDEMNED The reason why pastors do not speak of intolerable Jim crow conditions on southern Jews passes, according to Ira T. Bryant, in the current issue of the "Young Allenite." According to Mr. McKenna, there were two priests only one bishop in the A. M. E. Church would accept a free pass over railroads. Now, he declares, only three of the priests and bishops are not using these passes. The Louisville and Nashville railroad is said to be the ring leader in creating the humiliating conditions for colored passengers. In Montgomery, on the day of the march, the declares, all colored people had their tickets punched in passing through the regular gate but on reaching the train the conductor would force them to stand in line at the gate, which lifted the ticket and furnished them their little red coupon for their hats. No such treatment was served on other passengers. MARATHONERS NOT ALLOWED AT BANQUET Indian Chief And Frank Martin Barred From Affair At New Howard Hotel BLAME PLACED ON CHARLES L.

If at all times whites and their colored neighbors forget that there was any friction between the two groups, as at circus exhibitions, then all inter-racial committees could disband, and hang out signs "for rent" on their headquarters. On Wednesday afternoon James Jones and Salvatore Brocato ate their hot dogs and hamburgers from the same stands, drink their lemonade, from sausages, glasses, sat in their riding cars at the race dips ferris wheel, and on the flying horses; and none seemed the worse for the contact. No Segregation In the big top there was no segregation, and at the side-shows one touch of circus made the whole crowd kin. As far as could be asperained there were no colored performers in the big show, but on the mid-way there was one Australian Wild Man who looked suspiciously like an acquaintance that met on Laurens street not many weeks ago; despite his painted body and the ring in his nose. Princess Wee Wee was missed. She is in vanilley. Further along the Mid-way visitors are told by a georgious sign that Sidney G. Paris' Original Dixie Ministrels are on the inside. To coax the holiday quarters from the pocket of an umbrella had his company arrange a platform of his tent, and had his hand give, in outdoor parlance, a "ballyhoo", or free show. Paris knew his people and regulated them with witty talk about having 17 wives, and then sang a verse set to long meter that converted to audience and in double quick time. He announced that the admission for adults was 25 cents and children 15 cents, but children with clean faces could come in for a dime. Dixie Ministrels the members of the Dixie Minstrels are: Ed. Lee, stage manager; William Lawson, principal comedian; Roy Jones, comedian; Walter Diggs, Willey Lawson, interlocutor; Albert Williams, Mutie Keith and Francis Brown, choreographers and members are: Red. cornet; Jesse Stevenson, saxophone; Miss Nannie Paris, baritone and tuba; Rosario, clarinet; Sam B.

Dr. William Lyon Phelps, white, teacher of the drama at Yale has sent to Percy Hammond, dramatic critic of the New York Tribune a list of five plays produced during the season, that he did not wish to see. To each is appended a biblical reference bearing on the play, David Belasco's "Lulli Belle" is one of the plays listed. The reference following the latter mixed cast drama is to Jeremiahiah III, for the out of thy height, of my people am I hurt; I am black; astonishment hath taken hold on me." A footnote following the quoted verse refers to Joel 11, 8, "Before their faces the people shall be much pained; all faces shall gather blackness." Dr. Phelps opined that the "selfishness of playwrights and managers may bring upon us the irresponsible tyranny of the censorship," that the "matter is none of the disasters" of "Lulli Belle" is evidenced in a gross of over $20,000 weekly in its 13th week at the Belasco Theatre in New York City. WASHINGTON.— Lucille Hegemin was presented by Rufus Byars manager of the Broadway Theatre last week, as an added feature for anniversary week.

John Churchill and a youthful, beautiful chorus of golden brown steppers add to the effective ensemble. Music and other essentials to the production of a complete musical have been lavishly provided. Muse is a graduate of the Baltimore High School, and has to his credit accomplishments in the dramatic field that might well be envied. Muse is a former Lafayette Player.

PICKENS SEES HOW MOVIES ARE MADE Says New De Mille Picture Will Be A Negro "Humoresque" WILL NOT BE PROBLEM OR A HISTORY FILM Visited All Of The Large Studios And Gets Jackie Coogan's Picture BY WILLIAM PICKENS LOS ANGELES—I had the privileges at CoB. De Mille's studio to discuss with B. Millhauser, superintendent of productions, his proposed plan to seethe a section of Negro life—not a problem plan, or a history play, but a sort of Negro "Humoresque." Just a sympathetic presentation of the Negro group life, such as has been done for other races. It is not to be a play of Negro-white relations, but a play of Negro life. Millhauser is an artist and a sympathetic human, and if he can carry out his idea, this will be the first nationally distributed picture of Negro life. He has bought "Porgy" for a basis, and has preliminary contracts with Gilpin, Robeson, and other Negro actors. Geo. Godfrey, the pugilist is making good progress, and the Famous Players-Lasky studios. Noah Thompson of the "Los Angeles Express" made connections for me to visit the picture studios at Culver City, and I had the company of his wife, himself, Mrs. Barr of the Urban League, and Clarence O'Brien of the University game for Harvard University, and is now playing another game in the office of the United States Attorney General. We visited all of the studios and absorbed much first hand information of how it is done. Jackie Coogan sent me two of the latest photographs of old boy—getting to be a real man—and they say he is a real boy.

All of this about Miss Freeman is to prove there is a new group of young men and women entering the show world who are products of the best schools, and members of families that count. The day of the blustering unintelligent actor's army of other years is rapidly coming to a close; they are being replaced by the "Bee" Freemans and their brothers To Miller and Lyles, both Fiske University men, much of this improved condition must be credited. Their conduct of "Shuffle Along" and "Runnin' Wild" placed Negro showmen in estimable years forward.

Mrs. Hoskins, "Earhill's mother, is described as a young woman of pleasing manners who keeps a lovely home for her entertaining little son. That the little fellow very cably fills the shoes discarded by "Sunshine" Sammy is attested by the supernatural notices in the nation's press, and the recent song written by Harrison Smith, a young colored man of New York and dedicated to "Farina." In an open letter to Roscoe Conkling Bruce, who is collaborating in publishing "Who's Who," it is suggested that "Farina" is the five best star who makes millions laugh daily in more than 11,000 theatres, be given consideration.

CROIN (In Los Angeles News) LOS ANGELES, CALIF.—If there were such a thing as a pugilistic weather observer, I am of a mind to believe that his first prognosision would concern the approach of a cloud upon the lightweight horizon, the first indication of the knifewith the year 241. California boxing fans have laterly become acquainted with one Baby Joe Gans, a name reminiscent of the greatest of the boxing stars that ever bound out of beaver and the young gentleman continues to reshape the ribs and obliterate the maps of his opponents as he has done in the past few months. It is not being used for the utility may yet be comparing him with the Baltimore boy. There have been an number of Negro fighters to win prominence in the past, including a boxing lightweight realm, presided over by the master Joe Gaas, has been singularly dull to color effect. The Negro boxer has kept in mind the input he has made in the middleweight division and upward, with Tiger Fowers, the 160-pound champion; Harry Wills, principal challenger; Jeffrey O'Dowd, Jr.; Fredrey; Kid Norfolk; Nell Clisby; George Arthur Johnson and others of slightly lesser fame. The colored race had a very good entry three or four years ago in the bantamweight follows, that is, wrestlers, feathers and bantams, have not been creating much excitement since 1917, when Leo Johnson thought he could take the crown from Leonard's well slicked-hair. Drew Line on Leo This boy Loo was a New York product who suddenly flashed across the pugilistic horizon of the city, in apparently short space of time he had forced the public to recognize him as a companion or the champion, and most of the white boys fractured their pines in hastening to draw the color line between a escape and Noose with the king-pin of them all. Benny Leonard. Would Leonard accommodate the African With a white pince and Leonard knocked Johnson dead as a dorkish in the first round. Johnson ran rapidly from the pugilistic picture after he knocked Johnson highweight, has worked his way out of the mass of colored scrappers, until Baby Joe Gans, quite appropriately labeled, joins in the community. Like Old Master Baby Joe Guns seems to be a mild sort of person outside of the ring, but once inside of the ring, he is an idol of a cool infant, intently pursuing animal intent on the destruction of his prey. He boxes with both hands out and purses his own original Guns, and his boxing instructor must have been familiar with the Baltimore ring artist, for the Los Angeles ring artist, for the same fashion, through naturally enough, with little of the artistry of the late champion highweight. He has a good right hand, and in any measure the paralyzed right hand of considerable power, employed much as Tommy Hampton used the blown out few fights in which I have seen him engaged.

Men Who Won To For A HEALTHY BEING possessing the full power of manhood is truly a blessing to society and should be safeguarded as a sacred treasure. The loss of many vigor and health is due to many causes such as congenital malformations, injury, or from acquired defects in the organs of generations it may also be consecutive, inherited, rheuritheristic. TO RESTORE NORMAL FUNCTIONING of many vigor in the young and old requires the most scientific treatment. weakened vitality is not a condition to laugh at or ridicule to pass over lightly, for you are a sick man and owe it to your self and society to seek intelligent advice and treatment from a skilled physician. POISONED BLOOD is not cured by ordinary patent remedies and few of the many intervenent treatments are positive cures for poisoned blood without other medical treatments properly directed. It requires a most scientific course of treatments to overcome its ravage, and you must be under observation over a period of years. PIMPLED FACED MEN—Be very cautious in your relations with people who are broken out with diseased skin or sore mouths. I now warn you that too much propaganda of an educational nature cannot be brought to bear on the public to safeguard the innocent from being infected by contact with those visualizing the above described condition. BACKACHE is a symptom or sign that should not be neglected. You should consult your Family Doctor or a Specialist at once this may turn out to be the case of a very difficult to solve or a complication of causes.

Both of these battlers are rated among the topotchers in their division. They met last May in Atlantic City and fought eight rounds sheathing and clawing. Both boxers are classified with the leading ten picked by Tex Rickard and a victory will assure the winner a big outdoor bout in the ring. The winner no doubt will have a chance to get a shot at the title. Cohen became popular overnight in Baltimore when he put Ben Schwartz out to play the little. The little New York scraper is rated one of the best infighters in the ring besides being a clover ring general. Of the best boys in his weight and expects to show the home folks that he is made of championship material. He has been advancing leaps and bounds and a win over broken hands make him a tougher opponent after young men in boxing circles.

Manassas Institute totaled 25 points to win the scholastic point game, Union Street High School with 16. Win Despite Rain Before the meet was over, rain incurred the program interpitch Carrol, reputable Baltimore distance runner, was leading the field in a special scholastic two-mile run and De Hart, Hubbard, co-leader of the team, reeled and several other titles, had just completed his first sensational jump when everybody was driven to shelter. He was shortly resumed, and Hubbard leaped from the board three times more. His best jump made against a brisk wind was 24 feet. at 34-14 inches. He was also a painter in the 100-yard dash when he led a fast field in 9.9 seconds. He finished second to William King of Hampton in the 200-meter dash, and King chipped over a second from his 1923 time, completing it in 25.6 seconds. Records Shattered Nine record-breaking events followed each other in rapid succession. Pierce of St. Paul began the crusade by beating his own last year's shot put record with a heave of 40.2 yards. Wm. D. Williams of Hampton, knocked off a tenth of a second from his 1924 time by making the 120 yard high hurdles in 16.7 seconds. Howard Tayard scored 120 yards in a lapelin distance by three feet, throwing 160 feet, 9 inches. Manassas's quartet lowered Union Street's Virginia Relay time of 3 minutes 46.4 seconds by winning event in 8 minutes 40.6 seconds. Coles and Cook Robert A. Coles, for two years captain of Hampton's track squad, and W. Cook, of Union, each shattered two records. Coles took the race with the determination to break a record and, after leading practically the entire distance and almost lapping the trailer, he broke the tape in 4 minutes. 33.7 seconds. Nicholas Horderd had the best time of 1923—1924 until Saturday. Not satisfied, Coles began the two mile run with the same record-smashing air, and after leading the entire route, he crossed the line in 10 minutes. 26.4 seconds, lowering his own time of 1924 by 10 seconds. In both of these races, George Merritt of Hampton, roused a cheer from the stands by forging ahead from the rear and sprinting past his competitors on the home stretch second to his victorious team mate. Hubbard Shines Cook, Unions' flash for five years, in company with DeHart Hubbard, pulled down the wall and seconds the same being established in the 1823 and accomplished the century in 10 seconds flat. Cook's team made murals in the 440-yard dash by clipping from Langston's resold made in 1924—51.4 seconds and won the Chicago Defender trophy in two seconds, after getting off on a bad start, pulled ahead of Banks of St. Paul, and made a daring though unsuccessful attempt to overtake Cook's big Hot Weather It is too uncomfortable to carry around a lot of excess weight so that if you want an easy way to knock off a few pounds of fat— BOWLING Mr. Charles Tolson, Real Estate and Insurance Broker, and an author.

The Sox will meet the Bachachar Giants of Atlantic City this Sunday at Maryland Park in two league games.

Power and McClure did mount duty with Browns and Mizuki did mount duty in Saturday's game. Those Socking Sox The Sox were trailing 7-2 in Saturday's game in the last innning. They came back in their half of the inning to score six runs, jedged by the Giants, making double plays. The "Four Hosemen" led the attack, piling up a total of 21 hits. Wednesday the Sox will be in Hazeletown, Pa., Thursday they play with Philadelphia, Cincinnati and Friar in the league. Ben Taylor believes the Sox have the best balanced club in the league. He pointed out the fact that the local team is the most plurable in either circuit. Heavy. Johnson, bested by the Philadelphia defender is first, class, catcher. Versatile Players Britt can catch, pitch and play short or practically any position on the diamond. Rojo is a first base man as well, catch, play third, short or out the outfield. This elasticity insures a club against accidents as nearly every man can play at least two positions. A double win over the Bacharach Sunday will put the Sox well up in the pennant race as Hildale is still perched in third position, while Herrisburg, aloft on top, has only played two games.

Hi School Manager Says Cooper Is Best Pitcher To the Sports Editor: The game with the AFRO team was a pretty fair one and I hope to get another game with them so we can play. The breaks are not against them. Couch Gibson has been away for a week and that is the reason he is playing Friday. His business is arranged that he can not put in much time with the base ball team, so the training is kept going. He is meeting with the assistance of the captain. Willie Cooper is the best pitcher we have and the two games he has played this season are Wednesday, he pitched against the Bheneon Royals and won 8-8. Reynolds and the best pitcher at game, and can't be used too much. West Brook looked good, but he failed to deliver when he had the chance. Cooper had to get him out of a hole. We are expecting to play Morgan College Friday and Murray might start the game with Jim Williams Ernest Hardy, the AFRO right fielder, surprised us all by playing a good game. He was disappointed for the High School team he acted like a green horn, his batting ability was miserable and his general playing was impossible, but he proves to the real goods. I am glad the AFRO has him instead of any other team. ROGER MIDDLETON, Manager Douglass Baseball Team. SUITS From Maker to Wearer —No Middleman's Profit to pay. $23.50 40 S.

GETS WRONG LETTER BRIDE STARTS ACTION Young Wife Gets Missive Sent By Husband To Another Mate Mrs. Finkley Also Says Hus- Left City Has William Finkley. 25, 318 Market street, Frederick, Maryland, got a job at the bank, but Mrs. Helen Finkley, 607 N. Paca street, his 17-year old bride whom he deserted one week after their marriage, says yes. Finkley was brought from Frederick when the bride of a week received a letter by mistake that was meant for a former wife, and left her story told in the Northwestern police station. Wednesday, she married Finkley after a short courtship and they lived together at her home one week. At the end of this time, she declared, her husband disappeared. Several days later she received a letter informing her that she would be moved to New York and for her to get someone else because she already had a wife. Friend Makes Mistake Mrs. Finkley believed her husband in New York until a friend of Finkley's brought her a letter from him. The letter was addressed to Mrs. Hester Finkley instead of Mrs. Helen Finkley and this aroused the bride's suspicions, but she accepted the letter. It stated that he had obtained a job in the Plaza hotel and had made arrangements for her to join him. In the letter was other intimate things that had transpired between Finkley and wife number one. The man who brought him to the Plaza hotel him the note in Frederick telling him to deliver it to his wife. The new bride was the only one he knew and he brought it to her. To Ask Annulment Losing no time the young woman retained Attorney William E. Thomas and had Finkley returned to the city. She entered a charge of desertion and non-support. After having him landed safely behind the bars, she began investigations and found that a charge of successful a charge of bigamy will be added. A suit for annulment of the marriage will also be filed, Mr. Thomas stated. Finkley denied that he had married previously but stated that prior to his marriage he did live with a woman whom he called his wife and whom he had been married. The letter was addressed to her, he stated. He was committed for court under $250 bail.

Besides some of our West homes, the block contains a church, a drug store, a steam laundry, an undertaking establish, a building, a home apartment, a pile bakery, three apartment houses, two restaurants, two hair dressing and beauty culture shops, a school of music, a photographer, two barber shops, an employment agency, a news stand, an orphan asylum, an old folks' home, the office of the American Woodmen and the Y. M. C. A. a stranger who happened in the building last mentioned would probably wonder why they did not change the Y to C. Day in and day out regardless of season elderly men can be found in the lobby playing checkers for hours. Stepping long enough, they seemingly do not fancy the Y because they are held in check, their noise interferences with the old men so they can not concentrate on their game. Jerry Crites As far back as I can remember Jerry Crites has always been a rendezvous for the younger men who frequent the Y section. Jerry's is the little eating place to the left which serves as second home to some youngsters. There a nickle went a long way. If you didn't notice Jerry knew you and would trust you. During boarding school days when a hot dog was considered a meal and a bottle of pop a luxury, I learned to love this stall. Changes have taken place now, a new restaurant called the College Lunch" has opened to the rich and famous. Of the former faithfuls have deserted him. You can see him any time picking "All Alone" on his mandolin. He doesn't seem to be bothered. A New Dance On Pennsylvania avenue there is a cabinet within a block of the station house that even surprised one as shock proof as I. It is frequented by a type whose holiday spirits do not arise until all the chairs are furnished with delapplied tables and chairs to match. The walls are dark, the floor is worn by dancing feet. The few lights are dim, the room, 16 by 20, is unventilated and is thick with suffocating smoke. In the rear is an electric piano which the dancers are tricked into. The dancers areuddled together in the small dancing space, they are full of life but their sounds seldom attract the attention of the patrolman on the beat. They do not kick about prohibition, they reconcile themselves to the fact that prohibition is better than no liquor. Down there they do the dance called "Mess Around." Reformers who raised a hoold about the Charleston, the shimmy and the Tillie Rump haven't seen a real dance yet. Talk about Barrel House, just until you see the "Mess Around." Common Courtesy Baltimore, compared to cities like Chicago, has no crime wave, but in certain elements it has disrespect for law that may lead to serious consequences. This disrespect prevalent in the ignorant class of the race in some sections of the city is directly due to the police themselves.

If by his overbearing attitude, he causes resentment and disrespect for himself, he also causes resentment and disrespect for the law. An ignorant white man who by political pull or otherwise gains a position on the police force and uses his authority to exercise his prejudice, is more responsible for race crime than anything else. If Commissioner Galther really wants to deter him he should etithen pay men on the force or teach those there that their salaries are paid out of Negro taxes as well and in return they should at least give common courtesy.

MORE THOMAS MORE THOMAS Continued From Page 7 ings and the extent of his income were complicated when Winfrey Thomas, brother of the defendant, sought the sound. The elder Mr. Thomas satured that at the present time his-brother was practically living on borrowed money. The only income he received was a dollar a week, he satured. This represented contracts on six building lots in his Annapolis Boulevard development. When he met the stand Wednesday in behulh of the defense Mr. Thomas satured that Mrs. Thomas was subject to his of temper. On one occasion, he satured, "I will be your friend and her himself. She fell to her knees, she declared, but this was due to her weakness following a spell of sickness and not due to the force of the blow Mr. Thomas is in." In the middle of the Thomas family, he satured. Archie Thomas took the stand at 10 a.m. Wednesday morning and remained there under direct supervision. Mr. Thomas stated that he was 33 years of age and was married in 1907. He admitted that he had inherited a large part of his father, but declared that his present holdings did not exceed $12,000 and that he had no income. He has 15 jobs offered for sale and he works in Boulevard, he stated, but as yet this section is undeveloped. Did Not Like Country When he left his version of the trouble between him and his wife, he declared it was due to the fact that his wife hated to live in the country. The home was not furnished, and the installation of a bath room. Mrs. Thomas did not want to live there unless he provided a bath room and placed an automobile at her dis --Previously Mrs. Thomas declared that the home was two and a half miles from the car line and she had to walk just two grave yards in order to reach her house. She had declared, and she had asked her husband for a car because; 'she knew he could afford it. Mr. Thomas as denied that the home was as far away as she stated and added that a bus passed within a short distance of his home. Mr. Thomas denied that he had beat his wife in the manner she had stated, the only time he raised his voice. He denied that he tried to quiet her, he averted. When seized with a violent fit of temper, she would lie on the floor and cry out, "I will be declared twice she drew a revolver on him, he claims. He denied knocking his wife down the stairs at the door, she would in an effort to get away from him. He admitted, however, that he made no effort to assist her as she lay at the bottom of the stairs. He denied whether he had interfered with others who came to aid her or not. He was highly excited, he declared. Mrs. Ruth Shipley was recalled to the stand late Wednesday after the defense had rested in rebuttal to some of Mr. Thomas' testimony. Others who testified through the defense included Pinderhughes, 1203 Drill Hill avenue; Emmen Sorrell, 1934 McCullon street; Mr. Archie Kelly, Mrs. Genevieve Lee, Messrs. Otho Church, Mrs. Hassan Watson, Hassan Watson and Reese Price, Dr. Berkley Butler was summoned but failed to put in an appearance.

Older children had been taken hour for the little tots after lunch, and assisted in the conduct of the games, serving the long line of hungry children. The older people present evidently enjoyed little ones. Many of them spent some time in going over the institute farm, by different committees from the community. Each committee furnished one table, a chair, a tablecloth, a table for Day, sandwiches, cakes, apples, oranges and lemonade had been provided, and the trees around Boyle Building (Boyle Dormitory) made ideal spots for children. The committees expressed great appreciation for the scientific commitment and congregation at St. Ingos.

WHEATLEY MAKES PUBLIC STATEMENT Mrs. Laura J. Whettley makes public the following statement concerning charges that she wrote a letter asking Miss Augusta Savage to pay her 20 per cent commission in connection with the recent art exhibit. "I asked the public some time ago to withhold their judgment in my case until I had an opportunity to publish it." "My efforts on behalf of my people, both children and grownups, to make them, seem to have engendered in the hearts and minds of a few people in the city, a desire not to appreciate these efforts. "I wish to make this public statement—not as a defense, but because of the insistent demand made by my many friends and ladies reports made concerning my activities as President of the Association." Charges were preferred against not before the Federation of Parent-Teachers Clubs by the chairman of the Art Department, but proven without foundation of fact, yet a few small-minded people are still discussing them. For the children in attendance the public schools, and in whose interest I have irked honestly and earnestly to labor, I am making this public statement. "I have in my family, no care for either on my family, no care for the community. And I earnestly care the fathers and mothers of the children of our people who are trying to injure my good name and destroy the Federation of Parent-teachers." "Had the persons connected with this outrageous affair been earnestly interested in seeing the Association at heart, they would have acted as high-minded persons who would have been before referring lot of charges aimed at reflecting on the earnestness of my purpose in working the Federation of Parent-teachers' Clubs." "The following sworn statement sent to the Federation of Parent-teachers by Miss Savage states clearly the facts in the case: "To the Executive Board of the Federation of Parent-teachers' Clubs: Doe Friends: "As I have been the unwitting cause of a misunderstanding in your youth, I exhibited in your city recently, I am writing this in order to straighten out the tangled peace of your organization." "Mrs. Wheatley, in the early Fall of 1980, an armchair in a room to sell some of my books to be held in linture in order to the furtherance of my artistic education." "The matter under discussion was not arranged in the name of the Federation of Parent-Teacher Clubs, but before the idea of holding the exhibit in a school developed. Mrs. Wheatley asked me what terms I would consider and offered her 20 per cent. This was to be an entirely private exhibit and sale, in no wise connected with your club." “Realizing the educational value of such an exhibit, Mrs. Wheatley decided to turn the matter over to the Federation of Parent-Teacher Clubs. “As you know, the staff reached such proportions, that every one connected with it was overwhelmed in consecutive months, so the matter of the original agreement was forgotten.” “When the exhibit grew to a successful close, and I was about to leave Baltimore I urged Mrs. Wheatley to get what was still due me and take out something for herself, and upon receiving my check for the balance due me after I reached home, I wrote her again, reminding her that she did not take out anything for herself, which caused her to look up my letter to her in which I offered her 20 percent, not thinking in terms of the Federation.” “I am sure that the over-fiture caused by the exhibit was the cause. Being puzzled by her relation I immediately asked her for explanation to which she replied several days later, THAT SHE DID NOT WISH ANY COMPENSATION. "in the meantime, I became anxious about the matter and write to Mrs. Muson, who was the author of the book which resulted to my amazement in the trouble. You will refer to the letters now in the hands of Mrs. Muson you will find that the letters referring to the arrangement terms, was dated December 1948. The matter out to the Association, I am deeply grieved over the situation which developed in Baltimore and hope that this will straighten the matter out to the satisfaction of all concerned." "Sincerely yours," AUGUSTA SAVAGE" "*P. S.—Positively no money has been paid Mrs. Wheatley by myself." "A. S." "AUGUSTA SAVAGE" "The vote at the recent annual election of officers of the Federation, at which the president was re-elected by an overwhelming majority is sufficient proof that nothing must be permitted TO INTERFERE WITH THE FEDER."

Woodson At Schoolmen's Club Before the Civil war many Negro slaves possessed education far superior to of their masters and were sometimes hired as artisans for their work. In 1862, a slave son declared in his address on the "Education of Negroes Prior To The Civil War," before the Secondary Schoolmens Club. Douglass High School taught this learning was obtained largely from their association with indentured servants with whom they were thrown in contact, the explanation of which was that white men who were brought to this country after being freed from prisons in Europe. They were men of letters and gentlemen who been imprisoned for failure to pay their debts. Upon being brought to this country they were placed in the Negro school. This course resulted in many Negroes learning to read and write. Some even mastered the languages, he declared and were relieved of manual labor and employed to teach Dr. Woodson described the struggles of slaves to bet an education and told of many outstanding meep and women of both races who were educated.

Thoughts Of The Founder Parental organizations are useful because they are based upon a morality that discourages, every thing that is cruel and radical. The principle taught are developing and promoting, instilling a veneration for the city and His sacred word. This sanguinehes their faith and guides them safely, then life for any in position of righteousness. May come when there will be but one brotherhood, one nation, one government, and one faith. Radicals and Republicans "The Negro press takes its policies most seriously. There will be found in all Afro-America no paper which is not soul and slave of the observer and party, and the observer will notice an almost universal discontent with the Coldice regime. "Without, the AfroAmerican journalist remains staunchly conservative. A "indictive" Negro press simplifies the situation. The two statements quoted above are taken from an informing and well written article entitled "The Negro Press" in the current issue of the New York Mercury. The article is our own Mr. Eugene Gordon, editor of writer the Boston Post and compiler of Opportunity Magazine's annual survey of the Negro press. "Among Mr. Gordon's statement concerning colored newspapers and their affiliation with the Republican party is true, just as true as the assertion that the Average Negro is slave to the Republican party, and more." To be specific, this newspaper independent in politics, wrote a magazine in 25 years stands today, "Independent in all things; neutral in nothing." The AFRO opposed Mr. Cooleid for president in 1924, advocated the conservative party, and billed trumpets two years ago for "Silent Cat," our only comment is that they permitted their conservatism to run away with their better judgment. In 1932, the AFRO was wakewarm, it was red hot neither for ex-Senator France, Rep., or Senator Bruce Dem. In the state and city the AFRO advocated in recent years the election of Democrats over Republicans. Negroes of the city gave Mayor Jackson 15,000 votes and Governor Ritchie 12,000. This dispasses of the latter are the ones to quarrel strings. As to the AFRO-AMERICAN or any other weekly is a "radical" newspaper that must be left to those who weigh words over news. Newer news is "radical." If by "radical" is meant advocating the use of force to overthrow the government, the AFPD-AMER has been a peaceful relations, but not peace at any price. It believes in social equality, amalgamation of the races. It believes that identity of rights is the only guarantee of a free life. If Mr. Gordon thinks this is conservative doctrine we invite him to deliver a soap box oration along these lines in Richmond, Charleston, Atlanta, Birmingham, Little or Houston and see what happens. Mr. Gordon's estimate in other respects of the Negro weekly press strikes close to the facts. He has found 250 weekends, there of which 150 were more). He drops 127 as waste paper, most of them about the average of the country weekly. Of the remaining 22, he says 10 are mediocreities, possessing no nor an extra amount of intelligence or imbecility. Harrison W. Noel, white, of Montair, N. J., has been moved from the death house in the State Prison to the jail, where he will likely September a year ago. Noel killed a colored chauffeur, sold his auto-mobility, abducted and later killed a six year old white child. He discovered that the white child had been kidnapped, suspicion pointed to the colored chauffeur. Posses were formed and mobbed by lynching and burning the cultiph. In the end the body of this chauffeur was found. Noel was arrested and eventually convicted. He was sentenced to prison. Now comes the Court of Appeals of the state and declares that the double slayer was insane at the time of his arrest. Under this ruling, Noel will probably be recommitted to an institution and after three or five years be given his liberty again to go out. If he misses, and commit similar crimes.

State institutions where inmates are unions among all groups of colored college for cared people supported by farmers and the State and Federal farm Lynching Two innocent men were lynched in Florida last week following in- bor disturbances. About the same time the Senate Judiciary Committee in Washington reported adversely upon the McKinley Anti-Lynching Bill which would make mob violence a federal crime and state officials wherever lynchings occur. Sometimes ago the APRO-AMERICAN prophesied that the Republican majority in Congress had no intention of enacting an anti-lynching bill, and that the bill would come to a vote in the closing hours of the session, that the southern Democrats would stage a filibuster and he Republicans would give up their efforts to measure in a blaze of oration. The action of the Judiciary Committee of last week is simply a bit of by-play. Republicans have the majority on this committee and could have compelled its favorable It becomes increasingly evident that the Republican majority in Congress means to violate the party pledges of democracy and constitutional legislation. In doing this, the Grand Old Party represents in Congress, are following in the footsteps of President Coolidge who very recently designed the first national anti-Lynching Bill are not administration measures. Cheltenham Continued refusal of the Board of Managers of the House of Reformation at Cheltenham to improve conditions in the prison where patience and forebearance are no longer virtues. Every Grand Jury for the past three years has held the broom factory a fire trap and that the large number of boys employed there are being taught a trade which they cannot use in inert labor. The reports also scour the practice of committing a boy to the institution until he is 21 years of age. Such commitments for this great north part of Corrie are for a minor crimes in which an adult would be merely fined or sentenced to a 30 or 60 day term in the House of Corrie. The boys to neighboring farmers on a wage of $25 to $40 a year is described as simple peonage and but one step from slavery. In institution last year led to an investigation by a committee appointed by Mayor Jackson with the result that a re-organization of the Board of Managers at the Inprisoner This committee completing its probe made a number of recommendations for reform. None of them was adopted and none of them throw up its hands in disgust. The situation has not been remedied and stubbornness of the band another proceded badly war The city should withhold its appropriation from Chettonham for the next year until the reforms proposed by its legislature are carried and judges of the Supreme Bench should be asked to commit no more children from the city to the institution. "Horses Laugh" B. A. ADAMS, Preston News Service I saw two horses and (in imagination) I heard them laugh, and I'll tell you about them, later—please. Years ago when motor vehicles made the advent and it was preempted that they would displace the patient and dependent horse, this horseship laughed at the two horses' gestation. When they would displace the horse's laugh, they said, "He will have who laughs last," but of course they could not understand the philosophy of this terse old saying—but they have felt the force of it. But on came the motor usurpers, pleasure cars, trucks of all kinds and for all purposes, leaders and trailers doing the work, weight and fuel, including them to do the plewing. Once more I heard the horses laughing. The owner of a pony car had caused two stallions horses actually were the car into town, and I heard two horses laughing a joyous and trumpet laugh, and again I noted (torted) odium. Now I am through with the horses. (Indianapolis News) That heroism knows no color, race or creed was shown again when Eldon Mahone, colored, rushed in to a burning home. Were the white women who were threatened, with death by fire. Mahone was at work in an alley when he heard the women scream. Some clearly had been dotted, showering them with fire. He probably saved their lives by his timely action, but he came near losing his own life and was taken to the hospital, where he was treated in units of personal brewery-warrant the warmest commendation.

Sanction of Jim Crow Baths in Washington Means an Added Impetus to Segregation - Every The colored people of Los Angeles, Calif., find that they must fight to keep the civil rights of citizens as do colored folk elsewhere in the states. They are to keep ongoing their battle to keep their children the right to bath in any of the municipal bath houses, and not to be compelled to walk half way across creation a Jim Crow bath house in the case is the play Commissioners of the City of Los Angeles. The enmey tried to demur on the ground that the courts had no jurisdiction. The colored contenders against this case has to come to trial. It is now in the hands of the courts, and the outcome will be of interest. If the President of the United States sanctions the Jim Crow bath before Washington, it will certainly strengthen the position of those who want to Jim Crow the Negro in bath houses in other cities. The colored American must in his power from going further in the recognition of Jim Crowism. Public segregation in any particular supports and aids public segregation in any other particular. Either public segregation is wrong or public segregation wrong all the time. The battle of 1826 was a battle against slavery. The battle of 1826 is a battle against Segregation. It is a hard fight but must be won eventually — why not now? William Pickens. New York City Another Outrage Upon Womanhood To the Editor: About two weeks ago Herman Schwartz, a Jew of 2419 Atlantic avenue, committed rape upon his maid, Mrs. Schwartz, and was held during the absence of Mrs. Schwartz, who happened to he spending the day in Philadelphia. $ Finding that he could not sub- handle Roberts alone, he called a traveling salesman to his assistance. The woman was in such bad condition her people were forced to rush her to the local hospital for treatment. The doctor is out on $ 3,000 bail. No effort has been made to apprehend the traveling salesman. Not a word has been published about his disastrous career. What will be the verdict? Will he go unpunished as so many others have? Must our women not be protected? Cornelia E. Quander, Sec. N. A. A. C. P., Atlantic City, N. J. The new education is what is known as *Vocational Education*. What does this mean is that it is any kind of education, whether in a school or elsewhere, the purpose of which is to fit an individual to pursue effectively a recognizable employable job, or not see how all education is not vocational. Vocational education is coming in the form of a course. With pronounced success elsewhere there is every reason to think it will be equally successful here.

JONES "In view of the sweeping victory of vindication of Mrs. Laura D. Wheaty at the Teacher Association, a senior Teacher Association," says a writer to this column, "won't you correct your error of judgment in a recent issue?" To judge of "judgment" to which the writer alluded criticized the act of Mrs. Wheaty in writing a letter to Miss Augusta Savage, a certain services and the consequent confusion it has caused. "You are more averse to dipping his pen into wormwood than we believe that it is the duty of the rank and file of the association, since the election is over, to cessure black president in any constructive program she presents, there are certain facts that this whole unfortunate affair which must not be allowed to occur. The outstanding and most serious aspect of this matter is the fact that Mrs. Wheaty's friends R.B. and A.R.E. REPROACH. The DANGER of her leadership is the very fact that she has the ability and disposition to so grave an infringement of organization principles as that revealed by her written letters published in this paper and which she has not denied writing. It would have been far less serious to the community if Mrs. Wheatley's act had been more grosser moral wrong for her to have been so wronged have been no doubt of the wrongness of the affair. And even the act she committed would have been less damaging to the association and she had the ability to admit that she made a blunder. BUT SHE SETS IT UP AS RIGHT. From now on under her administration the team to Baltimore that the act of its president, herself with no urgent financial needs, can take advantage of her position and authorize her exhibit promoted wholly by public funds. DAY HER 20 PER CENT COMMISSION. THE TO SAY THE LEAST. IS A MOST DANGEROUS PRECEDENT. The very fact that the majority of the membership of the association voted, the team is to vindicate Mrs. Wheater, SHOWS JUST HOW DANGEROUS AND CORRUPTING HER INFLUENCE MAY BECOME. Herself, the facts in this case that the heat of a political battle has kept obscured. Mrs. Wheater, of all persons she knew with her $300, she left her with her $300, she left with an aching heart and hardly knowing how she was going to fund to meet the defect her team had. Mrs. Wheater knew that she was a struggling young artist all but But Mrs. Wheatley sat in a meeting in which the settlement was made with Miss Savage without mention of the $300 she left THE CITY she wrote to return 20 per cent of the $300 paid her by the commission, of which she Mrs. Wheatley) Even if Mrs. Wheatley had not been officially connected with the art committee, as a private trans- SICH AND THE ACT WOULD HAVE REVEALED A HEARTLESS. SPIRIT UNWORTHY OF A WOMAN FINANCIAL CIRCULAR STANCES. As an official act it was a gross disregard of the most elemental principle with high-minded men who regard it as essential in organizations. One of the most far, reaching wrongs against which the group is struggling now is the financial and unsuccessfulness of leadership. The youth of the land is being more and more saturated with TEX GET. How can they help it when they look on daily when leaders use all kinds of organizations merely as seating on their own personal fortunes. But least of all should men and women high in its councils Cordone an act so undefensible. Were Mrs. Wheaty the president of the might have been overlooked or had she not persistently pronounced it RIGHT, it might have been forgotten.

Efficiency It would be unjust to deny that under the administration of Mrs. Wheatley, the association has assigned some time to implement the organization in degenerating into a dissatisfaction. She deserves credit for many things, but it is also a fact that under her administration the organization is degenerating into a dissatisfaction. Even the most casual observer cannot fall to recognize that instead of building up a city-wide organization which is instructing an official steam roller and depending on her personal pull for accomplishment. This method of leadership smacks at the organization, an organization the parent-teacher association should be. The fact that some of Mrs. Wheatley's posers have been erringly vindictive this excuses such a dogged adhesion to wrong and spirit to crumble the throats her own will and wish. In her final report she sets forth her acts as right, and brands as scurrilous those who believe attempts at graft should not be tolerated in the Parent-Teacher Association. The final question is, Mrs. Wheeler, do you believe your act in writing in support of the Sage in which you asked that poor struggling girl to send you $60, for services rendered, becomes you as press secretary or as a representative association. Would you teach this act to YOUR child as a model of administrative honor? Up to the present you have answered in the affirmative and your friends have vindicated you by their vote. It is not too late, even now, to set this matter right and preserve your reputation. You still FEEL THAT YOU ARE RIGHT AND THERE IS NOTHING HAMMERING AT YOUR CONSENT. You should not HACK THE MOTHER INSTINCT OF CHILD PROTECTION WHICH SHOULD BE ESSENTIAL TO THE HEAD OF THE GUARDIAN of 5,000 CHILDREN IN BALTAINORE. Things We Do Not Forget Townsend Boyer, writing in the current number of the Dearborn independent, and as he says, "We shall speak with no malice in our hearts; we are intimately of the face that the "New Negro" is a constant whiner. Says Mr. Boyer. The Negro is still playing himself for his former enslavement; he offers as a plea for mercy and compassion; it is pleon for a special indulgence at the hands of other men. In song and story he is keeping the wound fevered and throbbing; it is the motif of all his artistic prologue and the red flag of his propaganda. Go to almost any commencement exercise of the Negro publication and essay you will hear the sobs of the herbert slave mother, the walls of the man-made ornament of life and the swish of the slaves' whip. A listening Southerner can almost see creeping above these burning walls, smoke from a hidden fire, the hope that some day the Negro's wrongs will be righted and the Law will be enforced to ever things with the white folks—the same white folks, incidentally, who have in nearly every school building and kept the school going with taxes upon themselves. The well-writers, who must square their well meant sympathy with the status quo in the South, Mr Boyer falls to understand that the Negro, while not understandable, even through the institution of slavery, HE STILL HAS MANY GRIEVENCES WHICH NO WHILE YOU SUBMIT CHEERFUL FLOW. He is not walling about the past, PHAT HE 'IS TALKING ABOUT IS THE PRESENT. But, by his economic deduction, what whites in the South tax themselves to support Negro education, while in some isolated cases is true, reminds us of an incident in which this writer accompanied an Arkansas farmer to the farmer to make his annual settlement. After he and a 'family of six' had toiled a whole year to make a successor crop, the farmer hired the hogs up for division. After laying aside the hams, bacon and other choice parts the planter handed back the chitterlings and fowl, saying 'now, John that pays you for raising these WE ARE WITH YOU 4. Shamed by their own display of cowardice 25 leading white men stepped forward and said they would defend Tuskegee with their lives in case of a klan attack. Kelly Miller Says If the race wishes to vindicate its competency for self-government, it must first exhibit the first essentials of self-government—common honesty. Our schools must lay chief stress upon the formation of character, not merely moral effervescence, but the basic principles of practical ethics which run from breast to backbone. We must decry this wild extravagant craving for getting money, regardless of the means employed. The highest test of the capacity for self government is the character to conduct public affairs or other impersonal enterprise. It is the public trust without those placed in charge. Trusteeship is the highest responsibility with which we entrust our fellowmen. Grover Cleveland used to say that a public trust is a trustee who profited out of his trust was most unworthy and undeserving. The North European races, or the Norwegians as they call them, are one undisputed virtue. They have learned how to carry on great enterprises as agents without personal profiteering. If one of his is not true in the one hundred percent sense of the term. But relative to other races and sub-races, they bear delegate responsibility with surpassing fidelity. German Efficiency The German nation fought the great world war under the greatest stress and sub-races, which were called upon to sustain in all human history. The entire resources of the nation were commanded under control of those place of responsibility and responsibility, yet, even the allies who were straining every nerve to find, fault with the Teutonic character, never issuing public graft or corruption. In Norway, Sweden and Denmark and Holland, public plunder by public officials is almost or altogether England with her wide area of tempation which her far flung relations with weaker peoples and races affords, is very rarely accused of put to the officers and agents. The Warren Hasting incident stands out with sinister circumstances in modern English history. When we come to the United States, we see such corruption and some state and federal profiteering. But on close analysis it will probably appear that other than the pure Anglo Saxon leaders, the then leaders in public plunder and graft. When we turn to other than Nordic stock, we learn a different story. The failure of the governments of Mexico, Nicaragua and El Salvador so all stalled South America is due to corruption and graft in high places. I heard a good missionary, who was evidently not motivated by race prejudice but by the mistaken minded man in Mexico in whose hands it was safe to entrust the responsibilities of government. The downfall of the institutions of the old world was the welfath of those placed in high station. How does it happen, one might ask, that the Northern Europeans have developed such superior public character? It is not, we may surreptitiously assume, but has remained unto such, unselfish character, but the social sense has been so far perfected that the wrong door is visitor with such condign penance warning to the evil deputed official who comes after him. Roosevelt burned the disposition to public prefeiting out with fire. Public officials of the highest rank must be to wear the prisoners' stripes. Why, asks my curious reader, does the writer indulge in such seemingly far fetched allusions, and entitles them to the North of the Nordic strain? I am merely laying the foundation for special application to our racial situation. The North of the Nordic strain in high station in all fields of endeavor have been for the most part failures in character and more often than not have hinged on graft. The chief charge brought against the reconstruction regime, is not that the Negro constituents were not the most corruptible. The charge still survives in its staining stigma upon the character of the race. It is not that the Negro should be trusted with high public responsibility. Corruption And Graft German Efficiency Graft And Corruption Racial Situation B. M. 5. Harding sent Major Joseph Ward, a colored officer, to head the hospital and an all colored staff to aid him. There has never been any further difficulty. - Ready Tools It is a well known ciple that the worst element of the whites seek out the Negro as easy prey for the exploitation of their evil deeds. They furnish the Negro serves as a ready tool to carry out their evil machinations. The Negro race furnish too large a proportion of the petty bootlegging of corruption to manipulate and controlled by those higher up. This is one of the evil outcomes of prohibition. This is the evil feature of race relationship. The worst elements find easy approximation. The presence of each blunt the conscience of the other. Whenever a colored man is named for important public happenings it is apt to be healed not because it is true, but because it is easily made and readily believed. Now all of this must be changed. The race must develop and assert those sterling principles to gain reputation for private and public proft. Church Affairs Unfortunately there has been too much basis for such reputation in the past. The Negro has managed his own church affairs from the individual church to the connectional organizations have not always escaped the breath of scandal and corruption. I listened to a church statement that made a Negro organization pay for two or three church edifices. When the first structure is well under way it is discovered, that the property is placed in jeopardy by financial croniners part of the incumbitors, and all must be started over again. Too often do we hear of graft and other modes of corruption in ruling circles of our religious organization, and up a righteous sense in the laity which will check this wickedness in high places. Herein lies the great hope. If the pulpit does not set the right tone, the pew, the pew will exact a higher standard of probity from the pulpit. Business Failures Our business enterprises have suffered like evil fate, in more information. How many promising business Negro enterprises have come to grief. These failures have not for the most part failed for lack of knowledge. Let the reader of these lines look around him and confirm my statement out of the abundance of his own experience and observation. His experience and observation. So we must hold ourselves up to a high standard by placing the wrong doers where they belong being more dastardly than to filch these poor unphisticated work people out of the hard earned accumulations by exploiting their worthy and deserving business undertaking will have to search out and expose their unworthy by rivals in the race. will soon lose confidence in all practical race enterprise. Almost every Negro fraternal order has money in its pocket. Their money is money in needless and extravagant-law suits. The faction in control is too often charged by their ambiguous rivals with manipulating funds to their personal advantages. Self Management As long as the race exhibits such sorry spectacle-before the public matters oneself, we ought expect the civil reputation to attach to all features of Negro self-management. There is little deep wested feeling among the white-man mind, that it is unsafe to entrust the Negro with the management of his own affairs, in the intellect, but indeed in the intellect, in the character. We cannot now say that much of this civil reputation has not grown to be as open as is book and are as easily read. White Dishonesty It 1. entirely, usefully to retract that white men are, often dishonest. That is a 'useless common place' in place or in places of private responsibility. Section Heard and Seen In Baltimore The Parent Teachers Federation had a special meeting last week and several very commendable measures were passed before the fight started. The trouble started when the time came for the election of officers all right but they had more candidates than positions and everybody would rather be president than right. The acting president arose and told the members to vote for the best woman. The body objected and said they were going to run this just like any other political election. The meeting was held in the school house and there was a son in the actor in every clock room and electioning under every black board. One candidate declared she was the people's choice but she didn't say what people. Another stood by the drinking fountain and declared that she was for light wines and beer while a third jumped up on the sand table where she was raining on a dry platform. Another sister went down in the manual training department and sent word back that she represented the labor party. It was an election in the interest of the schools but nobody seemed to represent the children. One candidate was disqualified. She spilt ink on 1 dress and the opposition claimed she had a blot on her character. Another dame asked for an opportunity to clear her good name and they erased it from the ballot. "I have a good record!" she yelled, and played it on the graphophone to prove it. Everybody saw the brother get up in the treasurer's room, but nobody saw who threw the brick. Everybody objected to the crossed member counting the votes because he looked crooked. After the electro refreshments were served. They ate up three pans of toasted marshmallows before they realized they were powder puffs. Salt got in the pink ice cream so the committee of arrangements added vinegar and lettuce and served it for shrimp salad. There must have been something stronger than grape juice in the punch because nobody was mad when the meeting adjourned. Weckly Lessons In English By W. L.

We need not quote the white man's occasional fault in vindication of our habitual lapses. Now what is the remedy? The Negro is rightly demanding not only self-government in all segregated activities where race prejudices him into his own racial circle, but also his properties of participation in the com- If the race wishes to violate its competency for self-government, it must first exhibit the first essential of efficient self-government—comprehensibility, faults and imperfections of character, much can be learned from the normal Nordic in this regard. The best way to withstand the assaults of the precluded group is to unlearn its vices and to emulate its virtues. Practical Ethics Our schools must lay chief stress upon the formation of character, not merely moral见效ence, but more importantly ethical ethics which run from breast to backbone. We must decry this wild extravagance leaving the young money, regardless of the means employed. The good Apostle tells us that the love of money is the root of all evil. Certain it is that the dishonest who is the root of all high-rung the reputation of the Negro race. Any dishonest fool can make money which in turn is apt to make money. URGE CANDIDATES FOR 4TH DISTRICT Ripe for Capture Of Legislative Plums POLITICAL POT IS SHOWING ACTIVITY Held In City Next week By Leaders Signs that the political pot in the 4th Legislative District which has been merely summering for several months may break out of the surface to the surface this week with the news that a non-partisan had been called by prominent leaders next week. To the present time there has been but two well defined candidates in the field for the state senate. Messrs. Harry O. Levin, the Republican incumbent and Deputy Attorney General A. Milton Alteld leaders however, within the group, say that the time is ripe for gathering mroe of the plums and have started to consider must the capability of putting two colored candidates in the running. Is Colored District That the district composed of a majority of colored voters is pointed to as an incentive towards an effort to get more recognition. The fact is that longer bound solely to party lines also gives encouragement that even if an independent colored ticket is put in the field they would stand a good chance provided, of course, they were capable and candidates. The entry also of Mr. Alftek into the field and his noticeable gestures for colored support indicate that many political observers believe that he stands a good chance of doing something effective in that he has the backing of the Democrat. Fowler has this successful effort in having the City Council pass a resolution asking the State Legislature to vote permission for a hospital loan. He also would ask the state body to provide a science appropriation for Morgan College. It has been polite out that there is a need for a proportion between the money spent by the state in higher education of youth of the races and that in the absence of a first rate state college, some provision should Goldsboro Silent Another matter of comment going the political rounds this week was the silence of John R. Goldsboro, District Committeeman of the 4th Legislative District. Leaders in the part say that it is high time he was buying himself by getting the group together for the discussion of candidates. As yet, however, the district committeeman has called no meetings for this purpose. Soft Hair In Latest Style May Be Yours This girl's beautiful, lustrous, smooth hair was once very harsh and unruly.

Home Education MILLDRED RAPPLEYE My small niece is about the most active and restless piece of humanity that ever raced around in khali knickkicks. She is adorable and loving, but has been known on, with occasional, to exhibit a depliant temper. Punishment, in the form of scolding or spanking never subdues her — only to make her resentful and naughtier. Recently she was brought over to our house to spend a few days. One afternoon, having tired of her dolls, she began to look for more exciting spray, never used. I was paying little attention to her book, having deeply engrossed in rudely forced, whether I would or not for a spray of cold water was squeezed onto my neck. Undoubtedly I should have laughed and turned the tables on her, but it annoyed me, and later ordered her to put the spray away, receiving a much notice — not a none-at all. I waited a few minutes, thinking she would tire if I paid no attention, but she kept it up, spoiling a perfectly good marcel wave and wilting my collar. The result was that I took the spray forcibly away from her and put it quite beyond her reach. After no word for the storm that followed, I ignored it for a while, went on reading my book, but watched out of the corner of my eye. She had been pounding the floor in her temper, screaming at the top of her voice, but finally took a breathing spell, after thinking very hard, suddenly acted in inspiration and darted for the door. It caught. That was my chance. Should I look it and compete her to stay in? It was decidedly cold outside and fast becoming dark, but I knew that to force her to remain in the house in her angry condition would The Story Of A Teacup Virginia Carey Little Frances Carrol looked at Dorothy Dale's new tea set. She thought she had never seen anything so pretty, and she had never seen anything so pretty and creamier and six tiny cups and saucers, all with sprigs of pink flowers on them. She picked up each piece, held it under her hand, and with spirit she set it back on the tea-table. Why didn't she have a tea set like that? She wanted one all her own. She came from the kitchen with cookies and water. "The water is tea," she said. As she played "tea party," Frances kept looking at the tea set, and wishing and wishing. She came for her to go home, somehow one of the little teacups found its way to her apron pocket. At home, she hid it among her books, but when she kept thinking about it—it was such a pretty little cup. She did not tell Mother: she had a feeling that Mother might not want her. The next day Mrs. Dale paid Mrs. Carrol a hurried call. When she had gone, Mrs. Carrol called Frances. You haven't seen little tea cups yet, she asked. Frances' heart began to thump uneasily. Mother seemed so sad, she was frightened. She started to say, "I looked in. Instead, she told her just how it had happened: she had wanted the cup so much that without thinking she picked it up and put it into her pocket. Mother told her to get the cup, and together it went to Dorothy Dale. "You stole my cup," said Dorothy accustomed. But Dorothy's mother said, "We will forestall all about it." Frances had never been so miserable in all her five short years. Mother did not scold her, but all the way on something kept saying, "You must not scolle me." What awful thing had she done? When they reached home, they found that they had company. Payne, Frances had each kindergarten, was smilingly waiting for them. Frances wanted to stay and talk with her, but mother sent her off for a nap. Frances had a problem. "I have a problem for you," she said. Then she told her about Frances and her teacup. "Do you suppose she is going to be a thief?" she said wretchedly. Miss Payne laughed. "Of course not. A child of her age has not yet developed language." "If so, primitive."

I decided quickly. "Taking advantage of her awkwardness at the door I seized her hat and coat, likewise my own. I followed outside, nearly on her head. She had started down the street, her fluffy curls tugging on the wind, fully determined to run away. I easily caught up with her, but instead of taking hold of her to make her go back as she expected, I ran along beside her, passed her, turned around and called back, "Let's race." She had been prepared, "sist me, and do nothing, and have herself on the damp ground and screamed at the top of her voice if I had insisted on dragging her back to the house, but she wasn't prepared for this development. Here I was rushing on ahead of her, imagining that we would meet that allong that way. She kept on for want of knowing what else to do. The fresh air copied her temper, and she used up her superfluous energy running, so was quite docile when stopped and put on her coat and hat. She was walking along beside me, her hand in mine, rather weary but happy, when we turned in at our door. Neither of us mentored the affair of that afternoon. The next time she comes over, I'm going to be observing enough to anticipate her restlessness and discontent, and before she has a chance to look for mischief I'm going to be ready with a suggestion or something that will be real fun. Parts it will be scary book, or colored putty for modeling animals, or we may even build a playhouse out of some old boxes, but somehow I'm going to turn that spare energy into constructive channels, for it has to have an outlet, and is forced into mischief-making only when it is not wisely directed. Of A Teacup her pleasure and does not want other things because they make, like a great burden of guilt on the child and make her feel that she has done a dreadful thing. She is beheaded to an over-burdening sense of fear or guilt implanted in childhood. Talk to Frances. Show her that she does not want to be treated to other people—that it makes everyone unhappy. Frances wants her little world to be older, she will be able to understand the moral question involved." When Frances awoke from her nap, her eyes were wide, that something was wrong, yes, the teacup. "When Mother came and sat on her bed, and she cuddled up close to her and they talked about little girls who wanted things. Mother understood all about it, and that heavy something inside her, like a bed, fell inside now. Mother," she said. "But I am never going to do it again."

DON'TS Care Of Plumbing There are a great many things which should be learned about the cure of plumbing, but a few "donts" follow: "Don't throw burned matches or sharpened pencils into a sink or wash basin." "Don't wash plants or cut flowers directly in a sink; use a pan and strain the water after washing." "Don't throw coffee or tea grounds in the sink. Keep a sink strainer. Suitable sink strainers can be had at any ten cents store." "Don't allow small bits of soap to accumulate where they can get down the water pipe of the wash basin. Skim them up for soft soap to use in general cleaning." "Don't use lye to clean sighish waste, especially where much grinding has been used. Use or grinding soda and plenty of boiling hot water." "Don't throw any more hot greasy water in the sink than you can help. The gips cool on them, ter and the water on them, and a gradual stoppage. Cold greasy water carries the grease right along with it into the sewer. "Don't empty a bucket of scrub water into a water closet without seeing it. You should stop in it which might lodge in the closet trap and cause stoppage. Precautions to Be Taken In case of bursting of a water supply pipe, or blowing out of a washer on a spigot, one should just know where to find the main shut-off valve and how to operate it and the best time to look this up is before anything happens. There are hand valves on pipes to most water closet tanks and sometimes on wash basin supplies, and in such cases the flow could be stopped at the fixture and the operation of the main valve rendered unnecessary. One should also know where the gas valve and how to turn the gas in off in case a fixture should accidentally be broken off or a handle come off a valve on the range. After applying such first aid, send for a licensed, registered who, will know what to do and will do it properly and promptly.

Of the whole matter lies in that violence between the right kind of striving over sees the heights above as something; something to be won as a reward qualification of that not so fortunate in hand to grasp by book or crook the either nature or endeavor. The square be prompt and effective. Within outward and from beneath it unshines any undue and unwarrantable physical or social. Suppose we strike the strings of those not so fortunate own fitness for the position we hold haging hand to all who deserve it. RE AMO HOK This race of ours has made unprecedented progress along many lines during the past sixty years. Socially, we have reached the point—or we think we have—where we can speak in supercilious tones of certain folks as "strivers." There are those of us who, having attained a secure position an attentive and discouraging eye at those beneath, pushing hard upon at the top of the social ladder, now have time to catch our breath and cast our heels. We take long periods of undisputed possession for anything to give one a sense of perfect security. Recently-acquired blessings have an evanescent quality which gives rise to a very natural fear of loss. The instinctive, and seesh, reaction to this fact is a wish to keep such blessings in the hands of a favored few. All encroachments from without are rather fiercely combated. So it happens that upon our social grounds, which we would keep exclusive property, there are erected out "No Trespassing" signs. How those who can always be depended upon to kick over traces and knock down signs. Such folks just won't stay "put," and are forever rushing in where angels fear to tread. The common name for these trouble, some, inconsiderate persons is "strivers." There is a rather amusing "fare-back" in connection with this term. At first it designated those of the masses of our race who seriously attempted to become part of the colored world, "used by those up" to describe the people of those among those "down." But when they adopted those of our "four hundred" who endowed, to adopt the habits and standards of living of the white "four hundred."—used in this case, by those "down" in sneering description of those "up." Personally, the writer finds the petty jealousies and rivalries among the supposedly intelligent classes of our race very trying. True, they are found in the other group as well, but we can so ill afford them. A small child trips over an obstacle a grown man would not notice. Such traits are obstacles in the path of our progress and proclaim about the fact that we are still in the adolescent stage of our development. I don't believe in a whole-sale condemnation of "strivers." There are "strivers" and strivers," one kind to be commended and encouraged, the other kind to be condemned and squelched. Desire to rise above the station in which one is born is a laudable ambition if accompanied with conscientious effort to qualify for a higher station. The keynote of the whole matter lies in word "qualify." It is the essential difference between the kind of striver and the wrong kind. The right kind lies in the heights above as something to be attained before heever; something to be won as a reward for merit—the merit being proper qualifications. The wrong kind looks covetously at out a presumptuous hand to grasp by hook or crook that for which they are not fitted by either nature or endow. The spelling process in such cases should be prompt and effective. Growth from within outworn beneath upward is the law of life. Nature prefers undue and unwarrantable cornering of her blessings. A physical or social. Suppose we stop and think-before he try to hinder the strivers of those not so fortunate as ourselves, and as proof of our own fitness for the position we hold, let us extend a helpful and encouraging hand to all who deserve it.

Feminine loveliness is entirely a relative matter, changing with the mountains and the seas, and reversing its standards within each new latitude. No woman ever lived who could be equally admired all parts of the world. Paw could not count on a continent; not many could count on a universal deference to their physical charm, even in their own nation. The white American standard of beauty is entirely different from that of our own, as also is the Indian, and those among us of Japanese, Chinese or East Indian, and numerous other peoples who make up this American population. To my mind and this wonderful mixture of beauty in selection all the more interesting, because there are numerous types to draw upon, thus making the path of beauty broader and bigger and more enchanting. We too well know that we are somewhat puffed up, because we have more than just blonds and brunettes; we have all of the in between shades, accompanied with the scintillating thins, not found among any other racial group. There is also the features that are punished the whole gamut of the different nations found among us touched with the Negro fullness or bluntness, such combinations have given to us a variety unnumbered. When we say beauty, each healer constructs a different model in her thought; we call attention to the complex, the contour of her features, lips, ears, throat and figure, and then we call attention to an individual fancy of our own; there are two common points that we can agree on, health and cosmetic aids to beauty. Beauty must look vibrant with the glow of youth, regardless of time. Our senses must respond to the compelling tones of her well-pitched voice, the rhythm of her carriage and the rhythm of her presence. She wears taste, touch, smelt, speak, walk and stand equally well. Whatever your type, seek first to produce harmony in all of the make-up, as well as the colors you effect. In dress, hose, shoes, hats and gloves. Spring is now upon us, and greater care should be taken with your skin, hands, hair, as they are more in evidence as the days go on. Exercise much thought and care in the selection of your new hat; colors are very bright, beautiful, but trying. It would be far better to purchase a more somber color, if you are careless (too lazy to keep it clean) than to wear soiled loud color hats, gloves and shoes. MAY—I am not in favor of the extreme short dress. Why do women wish to have the appearance of all legs; not to know what to do with them when sitting; to be ever pulling at their skirts because they are conscious that they are too short. There is a happy medium that we can strike; when the skirt has length enough to make it graceful as well as to expose enough of the link to permit the beauty of the curves, and lines to help to add to the general appearance of the costume.

Church Must Deal With Community Problems B. DR. GEORGE E. HAYNES. Secretary Federal Council of the "The Protestant Negro church years. With their bishops, their district superintendents, and other men they have made great, headway in many matters." "What is the call, now, that conday to this giant organized power in types of things that the Negro church place of power and responsibility.

"This Protestant Negro churches have grown rapidly the past sixty years. With their bishops, their presidents of conventions, moderators, district superintendents, and other general officers and their local ministers they have made great, headway in organizing and serving the people of the Church." "What is the call, now, that comes as the great challenge of this our day to this giant organized power in the Negro church? There are two types of things that the Negro church must confront if it is to justify its success in the great church. The great church is a place for the people to begin to function in that opportunity as the great agent for dealing with the social and community conditions in the internal life of the Negro people. Let me be concrete." "This American church is one of the great centers of population now numbering more than 100 million people in the United States and are congregated in great numbers the problem of the individual. The only way this situation can be met is by organization of the Loyalist Church, the Loyalist Labor Union, which has taken a different attitude now. The Negro were not members of the Negro church had been a functioning factor in dealing with the wage and work conditions of the great masses. I know you will say that these are not questions for the church; but, my friends, these are questions of the great Church. The great church is the great church of religion? Is not the great function of religion to solve the problems of life and labor? If, then, the church is to be the agency of religion it must deal with these practical problems of life and labor." "One of our Northern cities. This involves not only its question of the external condition of the Negro, but involves his relationship with his white neighbors. If the Negro church in personnel and social service organization is today able to step out in the forefront of the problem of the great church, it is the great church that will realize its opportunity, a group of its members, and its relationship with his white neighbors." "Turn in another direction. Look at the great leisure-time needs of these teemling millions who are crowding into our industrial and commercial centers. They are having money thru increased earnings—more money they have ever known before. Their hours of work are shortening and their hours of leisure are lengthening. What is being provided to take care of this leisure? In many communities the churches have abdicated their right and opportunity to furnish the outlet for these leisure-time activities."

M. Mione, of Povo College, St. Louis, Mo. According to L. Bishop Brooks, the budget of $55,000 a year. The Episcopal Church has a budget of $65,000, and the Lutheran Church $75,000.

Senior Topic Text: 16 – 12–28 Motto Text: A soft answer turneth motto up, Prov. 13–15 Word strength up, Aug. 15 There is a life worth living within the reach of the humblest and poorest. We are taught in Holy Writ—"He came that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." What is it then, that makes life worth living? The presence of Christ in the heart, "He that hath the Son hath life." It is this that should stimulate each of us to noblely seek to be the best we can be, and to elevate heights of character. This should be the bedrock or foundation upon which should be built our acts of mercy, our deeds of kindness and our sacrifices of whatever kind. RULES FOR RIGHT LIVING—Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and you, with all malice, and be kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you— "Our happiness in this world will be dependent largely upon the use we make of those traits which go to develop a well-regulated character. Then the proper performance of the duties incumbent upon us toward our destiny will be delight. One of the stretches the line of our duties bestows is the measure of our strength." We ought to live with the grace of the flowers, with the joy of the birds, with the freedom of wave and wind. Without question, this is God's ideal of human life. We are expected to do no more than we can do with the time granted us, with the tools, the material and the opportunity at our disposal. We serve no Egyptian task master who watches to do the task of bricks, but a generous Lord who waits to make them. A. M. E.

LIMOUSINES FOR ALL OCCASIONS FROM MY OWN GARAGE. COUNTRY WORK, CALVERT CO., MD., WORK A SPECIALTY Indications point toward the conclusion that there is a general cession in land-building. Buildings are fewer, steel production is on the decline, automobile sales have not come up to expectations of distribution and a few farmers >oocessives have failed. In view of these facts, however it is evident that monotonous easy, that Canada offers favorable opportunities for investments of American capital and that the silk industry is expanding on a Building Building contracts at this season of the year when they should be increasing showed a tremendous increase in the 46.55 percent increase or the decrease of building contracts being one of the best indicators of business activity. But this decrease is a definite sign of recession in business prosperity. Steel Decliner Along with the decline in building contracts has come a drop in the production of steel of ten tons per year. Now, new builders use much steel and building has declined. it would follow that steel orders would drop Automobile Industry According to the automotive industry two large producers are operating on a lower scale than the other, to this the Urban League and the Negro Associated Press recently published statements discouraging Negroes from driving in urban trial centers seeking work, for it wasn't to be found. Sales have not come up to the expectation of distributors. Over the production of 125,000 truck and bus vehicles during the last quarter an increase of 18,000 over the preceding one is an evidence of the automobile Industry. Canada Is Outlet A. disturbing factor in the automotive industries is the runoff that Canada plans to cut the tariff on imports of automobiles. The Canadian government's commercial activities has permitted this government not only to propose tariff reductions, but in addition has endorsed the government's corporation income taxes. While the Dominion has been executing her slashing tax policy Americans are in the city of investing capital in that country. If the Dominion lowers its tariff rates its industries will not be protected, a fact which dis Canada, however, is dependent on America for her capital. Britain, owing to the financial drain on her resources caused by the war and the need assistance, cannot invest capital in the Dominion. It is left to America to supply this capital. The Americans are taking advantage of the situation by building factories and establishing branch sales houses. With over 2 and 1-2 billion dollars of American capital invested in Canadian resources it can be serious doubted whether the government will invest with the same in such a manner as to be injurious to American investors. Farm Situation Farmers' Cooperative Associations such as the Maine Potatoes Growers Exchange and Dark Tobacco Growers Association have failed largely because they attempted to control the prices of their products. The Dark Tobacco Grower encouraged other people to raise tobacco. Outsiders rushed their products to the market and sold at the fixed prices. As a result the farmers lost money on hand. Probably the failure is due to the eco-icnic ignorance of the farmers in that they have not as yet learned the inexactable eco-icnic prices they must control production. The cotton growers on the other hand instead of trying to fix prices concentrate their attention on merchandising activities. Transportation rates, routes, the best mur fair, are topics largely concerned them. Silk Industry The world consumption of silk is now 110,000,000 pounds; an increase of 30,000,000 pounds within the last decade. The industry is expected to expand because there is "an ever growing demand for silk fabrics, and plentiful supply of silk fabrics within the industry and an absence of severe foreign c.npetition."

BANG BANG BANG MORTAR MIXING IS A SEPARATE TRADE Old Hand At Vocation Describes Various Mixtures Used For Brick and Others 75c A DAY IN SOUTH 75c AN HOUR HERE Began Life As Farmer, But Left Country When Taught Present Trade By Friends The balance of power in industrial trades is slowly, but none the less surely, shifting above the Mason-Dixon line, and is opening the eyes of Baltimore residents to the many avocations of which their brothers from the South are masters. One of the most interesting disclosures was made by White Garlington of Laureus, South Carolina, and affirms that his tar mixer and affirms that his trade that must be mastered. Ordinary folk have generally looked upon the man who mixed the mortar for bricklayers as a common laborer. He also combines the sand and other ingredients with his hoe places him in the skilled artisan's class. The informant, Mr. Carlington, was taught by John Bullener, after he spent a great part of his life as a farmer. His first job was mixing mortar and plaster on the Laurinen's Cotton Mills in his home town at 75 cents a day. Since he has spent large part of his 48 years working How It's Done The formulas for making plaster is the mixing of sand, lime and hair in the -right porpoises with water, for the -left porpoises with a mixture of sand and lime. The latter must be perfect for it is the finishing coat. Lime and sand are mixed in a mixture of cement for the laying. There are of two varieties, clay and gyp. 20 shovels of sand, a bag of cement and approximately six gallons of water, are mixed in a "batch" of mortar. The mixture can be made usable after setting 24 hours, by adding water, but the mixture can be used last half an hour at the 1.est. North Versus South The tradesmen can average sixteen "batches" in an eight hour day, keeping seven bricklayers supplied, Colored bricklayers, plasterers, and carpenters in order in South Carolina, and Garlington seemed mildly surprised that they should be a novelty in Maryland. It was pointed out to him, that the work he was engaged on the new Elk's home, that many other buildings have been constructed by Negro tradesmen in the last few years. Recently Mr. Garlington has been employed on a large office building at the University of North Carolina, efficiency nets him much nearer 75, an hour than the 75 cents a day received in Laureus. Thus, he sagefully remarked that the South afforded more than 75 cents a day to the North, East and West industries in the industries to which Negroes are permitted to work, but when given a chance, the money is there.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE Benny Smith, 600 block Carlton street, and Samuel Purnell, 613 Bradley street, warm friends, had a falling out Friday night for a argument that nearly ended in blows. Purnell did not want to fight so he left the house to avert trouble, but he said he sneaked up behind his friend and struck him in the head. Purnell woke up in the hospital. "What did you hit him with?" asked the Magistrate the Westside. "I am not quite certain," said Purnell, "but I think it was a hatchet. I don't think he meant to hurt you, though. We are good friends and he might hit him it might sever our friendship." "That's all right, too," said the Magistrate, "but if he had struck a little harder with that hatchet he might have severed your head, so I am going to fine him $10 and costs." Waking Up Morning Samuel Benton, 827 W. Muiberry street, learned that man may propose but the law will dispose when he was arranged in the Western Police Station Saturday morning. Mary Hurley of the same address charged him with assault and cutting. "How did it happen?" asked the Magistrate. He came in last night drunk and meared up the room with a razor. Every time I came within reach he would slash me himself to his life out the window to save my life. And, Judge, he told me that if he got his hands on me I would wake up in heaven tomorrow morning." A survey of 429 establishments employing 18,376 workers in the various parts of the state of Illinois shows that 45 per cent are colored, nearly all of the workers employed in Chicago packing plants.

PURE, FRESH, BEST DRUGS THE BEST DOCTORS — THEY KNOW $1.00 P. D. & Co. American Oil 59c 100 Alophen Pills 45c FIRST WHITE WOMAN TO CROSS LIBERIA A JOKE London, England—Announcement in the London Press by the first white woman, to cross the Republic of Liberia from the coast to the northern frontier in the interior and five weeks tracing in country solely people by native native tribes who, even in these days of specialized food, prefer human food, and the diet, was created a sensation here. According to the African 'World these remarkable assertions were quickly challenged, and declared that he and his wife, had travelled in the districts mentioned and lived in Liberia 18 months without ever having heard of native mentioned, by Lady Mills. We are just wondering if Lady Dorothy Mills has ever met Mr. Dresshuisheu, the Liberian Minister for the Press interviews of last week as a very clever advertisement for her forcoming book on "Liberia," for which it has been suggested if a different method had been used to attain the needful publicity. Whilst there are today probably several parts in Equatoria, Africa which are easily be told by natives that she was the first white woman or even white person to be seen by them, it is abstraction that the alleged cannibals of Liberia form a society and dress themselves as Leopards, feeding solely on human flesh. The African Minister informed the African World Minister that Lady Mills she evidently does not know the difference between the numerous Leopard Societies in West Africa and the ones which as a fact does not exist in Liberia. It has occurred that members of the Leopard Societies have claimed their victims for religious and political reasons, but these secret societies were dealt with as effectively and promptly by the Government in Liberia as they were in the adjoining British territories by the local administration. Apart from this (although Lady Dorothy Mills may not have noticed it), she was carefully guarded by agents of the Liberian Government during the whole of her recent journey, which had been planned for her at Monrovia, where all facilities had been previously arranged. The Minister said that, as far as her personal safety was concerned, in his view Lady Dorothy was quite as safe in the junge of Liberia as she would be in the garden of West End house at Ebury Street.

This was not all he was not divorced when he married his present mate. Mrs. Garvey, who was in Baltimore, on business, went into the local phases of her right, which she calls, "an effort to establish her right as a free woman." "Garvey," she said. "Meets nothing to her. I did not want the unpleasant publicity of being his wife nor being branded as a deserter, and her suit for divorce was merely to free herself that she might legally act with her freedom to womina. The new case was in that form. This call was followed by the raid. "She denied the allegation of being a deserter," she said. "I have no doubt that the arrests of any men, but that they found her in the apartment with this man, whom she now knows was an agent of the Garvey group." She was on the other hand, she says, was one of the methods the Garvey agents had concocted to prevent her obtaining a divorce.

Garvey divorced," she flashed, "why does he want me deported?" By this very act, she claims, he admits she is his wife, and that the so-called Missouri divorced woman Garvey's agents, she said, actually planted a man in her home and after careful collusion, staged a raid. According to her sorry of the affair, some time prior to the raid, a man claiming to be a head waiter in a New York establishment, married her apartment. She and her brother lived there, she said.

This call was followed by the raid. She denied the allegations that the Boulin detective agents found her in the arms of any man she knew. She was in the apartment with this man, whom she now knows was an agent of the Garvey group. This she says, was one of the methods the Garvey agents had concocted to prevent her obtaining money. As a "prisoner," she said: Gurryse has no rights as an American citizen and certainly no right to ask her deportation on moral aptitude. "I have unimpeachable evidence that Garvey was not, legally divorced." Mrs. Garvey stated. "I have proof that he never resided in the state of Missouri and that when he was married he have obtained the decree, he was in that state only six hours." "Although he was in communication with me at the time, he did not notify me of the proceedings only to Paris, where I was at the time, that I was no longer his wife." Mars. Garvey stated that she did not mean to live in this country but would return to Europe as soon as possible. He estimated that she might again enter upon the matrimonial seas. World Figure In commenting on the Garvey movement, she said that the movement was but, but that the movement outwrote him and swept him off his feet. He was dazed by the massive proportions of the affair and went to pieces because of sheer lack of ability to cope with so great a force, as he built She predicted that he would never live in Jamiatan' but that he would go to England. "He has outgrown Jamaica," she said. Mrs. Garvey talks with a junusual group of world affairs.
