When the white girls entered there were several seats in which only one white person was sitting, but none where the two girls were sitting. The conductor ordered them in a brass manner to get back into seats behind them. They refused, because the seats behind them had each one bob up, if any one could bob up, they said. It would be the last comers. When, they reached the city the conductor caused their arrest. Other Cases It was burglar that the hearing that Barbary had caused the arrest of other women in similar cases.

When the girl gained consciousness she identified McCoy as the man who had shot her. McCoy confessed the shooting and stated that he had hid his revolver under the mattress in his home and returned to the scene of the shooting to avert suspicion. Wife Baffled He was held for assault Monday night at the Northeastern district police station.

Write for BLAME MIGRATION FOR FEWER CHILDREN For First Time In History Five Year Olds Drop Below White Rate DECREASE LARGEST IN SOUTHERN STATES More Workers Picked North Than West For Their New Homes WASHINGTON.—The unsettled conditions due to the world war and migration of fully 500,000 colored people from the states has had a telling effect upon the growth of the colored population. In the year 1820, for the first time since data has been available (1850) the ratio of then number of Negro children under 5 years of age per woman was 15 to 44 was than for white women of the same age. Back in 1850 there were 741 colored children under 5 years of age per woman under 5 per 1,000 women of each racial group, or an excess of 82 colored children. In 1880 the excess sheared its highest point with each ten-year period, the number of white children. Since then a gradual decrease has been indicated for each ten-year period, the number of white children decreased from 760 in 1880 to 429 in 1820, as compared with a decrease from 588 to 471 for white children. Since then a year period, 1880 to 1820, there was a decrease of 331 Negro as compared with a decrease of only 115 white with a 1,000 women of age greater than 18 years. From 1910 to 1920 the period of our greatest social disturbance resulting from the war and migration, began with a whole a decrease of 90 Negro as compared with 13 white children under 5 per 1,000 women of each race, and it is interesting to note that the greatest decreases occurred in those states from which the largest numbers of people migrated. The Negro population showed a decrease of 134 Negro children per 1,000 women. Texas, 126; Mississippi, 120; Georgia, 107; Arkansas and Oklahoma, 96; South Carolina, 86; Tennessee, 74; North Carolina, 65, and Maryland and Virginia, 52 each. In the northern states Massachusetts showed a decrease of 33, and 8, respectively; while New York showed a decrease of only 1. Ohio, 17; Pennsylvania, 20; Indiana, 21; Illinois, 41; and Maryland, 20. From the data indicated it appears that a greater number of Negro farm families migrated to Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and Ohio, than the same number in Indiana, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri.

Nu-Hair Tar S MORE TROTTER (Continued from Page One) employees were in a quandry. The Petition The petition as read by Mr. Trotter follows: To the President, Calvin Coolidge, Chief Executive, White House, Washington, D. C.: In this year, 1926. Sesqui-Centennial Year of signing of Declaration of Independence of U. S. A., which asserted human equality, at and for American Independence Week, June 25—July 5, set aside by Federal Commission under yourself to the end of nation-wide observances of its 150th anniversary; We the undersigned, for ourselves and all other Americans of African extraction or descent, do hereby earnestly and of right of petition you to abolish by Executive Order the present segregation of oClored federal employees in Executive Departments—Treasury, Justice, Post Office, Army and Navy and others, a subjection of one racial element to the race prejudice actual or presumed of all other elements, and therefore a denial of equality of citizenship to the race singled out from all others for such subjection. For we hold it to be self-evident that consistency and national honor or require that race distinction in military service be moved from federal executive practice in federal buildings at federal capital as for the federal government arrange national observance of the national emancipation of a Republic's first document which enunciated equality and freedom. This is the more incumbent when this one race so proscribed in the war, the more soldiers in the war, for the very Independence to be celebrated, with soldiers in every other war, thereafter, and never more. Thus lead the national generally to end color proscription at 160 years. Replaced Treasury Employees The presentation was followed by a short speech by the Rev. Harden and responded to by the President who talked two minutes, one minute and a half of which was devoted to the issues not connected with the petition. Harden was champion of the fight that brought a Brooklyn, N. Y. policeman to attack for attacking a woman. In response to the latters' re-response, he was aware of some practices of discrimination against race employe-ries and been making efforts to eliminate it. 16 Fired The dismissal of 18 persons from the treasury department had been called to his attention, he stated, and replaced. If the department found it necessary to cut down their personnel, he had instructed that white employees be ordered to work on the business should not be dropped in groups. This, he said, was evidence of his good faith in preventing discrimination along this line. President Coolidge did not intimate what steps would be taken to wipe out segregation. He instructed the executive proclamation as asked. He merely stated that in the future he would try to obtain the desired position. He presented Many sections of the country and various organizations were represented by the delegation. From the delegation, the Rev.

Saturday, July 10, 1926 HILL-TYDINGS TILT ON FLOOR OF THE HOUSE HILL VOTES YES TYDINGS NO WASHINGTON, D. C. (Special) Debate between Representative Hill, (Republican) and Representative Tydings, (Dem.) both of Maryland enlivened proceedings in the House of Representatives last Friday. The measure, before the lower body was the bill making Howard University government institution, Representative Hill voted "yes" Representative Tydings, "no" and the bill was passed without a reeve. Subsequently, it was sent over to the Senate where action was defer- Trouble started in the House last Thursday when Representative Hill opposed the fact that Colonel Tydings opposed government appropriations for Howard University and when the measure was before the committee wrote a minority report that no appropriation be imposed. Representative Hill quoted Mr. Tydings as declaring he could not vote for it. Fireworks This started fireworks and the party, Friday, Representative Tydings took the door of the house and caused Representative Hill of using his minority report to make concessions with his colored constituents at Tydings' expense. Tydings was not opposed to Howard University in the abstract. I like to the colored men get an opportunity as well as the white men, obtain the advanced benefits and improve the interests and conditions of their people. I have no need hatred against him. Because education belongs to the state, I am opposed to the national government interfering." In the course of his remarks Representative Tydings asked, "Where does the gentleman, Mr. Hilda stand on the Dyer bill?" Mr. Hilda replied, "The gentleman he will see I criticized it." A member suggested that since Hill and Tydings are both candidates for the U. S. Senate they hire a convention hall in Baltimore and light it off. Representative Lowry, of Mississippi, told one Democrat told him if he voted against the Howard University measure he would lose been colored votes. Both Democrats and Republicans, he said, told them they could vote on an account of their constitutions, to vote against the bill. Mississippi Bunk Lowry said that Mississippi, his state, had one public and one private college and that in his opinion educated people were better provided with educational opportunities. In his minority report Representative Tydings declared the money North Congress appropriated is not our own. It belongs to the constitution that gives us the right to spend it for the maintenance of an institution like Howard. Congress Has Power Representative Reed. (Rep. N. Hill) read from the constitution that the government should power to lay and collect taxes, duties, etc. pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States". He said, "general welfare" includes agriculture and manufacture and that Congress was, therefore, within its legal right in appropriating and maintaining Howard University. Religion Enters Representative Hare. (Dem. S. C. said Howard had a school of religion and he was opposed to using government funds to educate teachers. He also tried to read in the record excerpts from our anti-Durkee literature sent out before the election of a new president. Representative Weller. (Dem. N. Y. referred to Howard University is the open door for the Negro. He end it had an available endowment of only $50,000. He told the figures to show that since 1879 the Federal Government had appropriated $4,159, $15.50 to Howard University. The first appropriation was $10,000. The 1925 appropriation was $591,000. Amendments Representative Hure. (Dem. S. C.) offered an amendment to the bill providing that any building erected from government funds and no longer used by the university educational purposes divert to the government, was ruled out of order. Representative Lowery. (Miss.) offered an amendment to the bill which would also have made George Washington University white, Washington on federal institution. This amendment was ruled out on a point of order.

The conference at Helsingfors, which, it is believed, may result in "the inauguration of a new working between the science of the Christian faith" will be devoted largely to a study of boys and their problems. In preparation for the discussions there, a survey has been made in all of a higher proportion of the youth problem through consultation with the boys themselves. White Boys Colored Boys A number of American communities have participated in these preliminary discussions. On the whole, they seemed to favor more responsibility for youth. One group believed that boys without a mother and that a boy who has a home "should be responsible for helping to build it," and should be paid for his work and treated as a partner." White Supremacy Concerning boys expressed the opinion that many Negroes "think God ordained white supremacy" and that often the dark races do not give themselves "creed it for any reason" and that inferiority complex, although on the decline, social workers say, is a handicap to the race.

Student Delegation Enroute To Russia FINDS ALL RACES IN THE METROPOLIS Work Is Scarce Except In Theatres Where Dancers Make Money LONDON, ENGLAND (Special Enroute to Russia) London is a city of all one meets people from every country in the world. Some of these people, of course, are only travelers with no particular aim in view. Such travelers are driven by the desire to experience the cultures of our world. I have often suggested that scholars and writers just as some restless youngers in Mississippi, Georgia, and southern States go to places like New York City to see Chicago and Detroit and some of these migrants from Canada, Australia, Australia, China, Japan, Mexico, India, West Indies and other countries come here to see London. Traveling is expensive so most of these people naturally either work in England or come with a group of musicians or a theatrical scene. Sometimes colored travelers come to London with a circus, European passions, a sound I talked to, or that the new a colored man he met in a circus. Since my arrival in London I have found that colored people can get little work outside of medical jobs in restaurants and hotels. On the other hand, good colored ones in restaurants, dancescopes, music classes, etc. can do to do notation but practically in all cities European cities. one of the most interesting colored man that I have met since my arrival in London came to London from Cincinnati in 1871 with a house in Philadelphia. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is a great success in London. The colored man with the theatrical troupe introduced himself to me Morris C. Gaines, son of Mr. John I. Gaines, the founder of the colored schools of Cincinnati, Ohio. As an indication of what the presidents of the theatre are doing in Europe, I could do better than give a short sketch of the career of Mr. Morris C. Gaines. Mr. Gaines spent two weeks in London with "Uncle Tom's Cabin." He then went with the couple to Berlin, Germany, and on fifteen days after this a month was spent in Berlin. The troupe then spent four weeks in Vienna, Austria. Followed the visit to Vienna, the troupe went to Pressburg, Hungary, for two weeks to Budapest for a month to Pressburg, Vienna and London. After coming to London, Mr. Gaines left the troupe and joined a friend named William Thompson. The two traveled thereafter to Europe, where she danced and sang. Gaines and Thompson spent one year Call VErnon 601C The Reviews THE first in London' where they had complete success. Then they traveled in France and Germany appearing in theatres in Paris and Berlin. Mr. Gaines has traveled in Norway, Sweden, Spain, Portugal, Russia, France, Germany and other countries of Europe, even going to Finland. The only child which Mr. Gaines has, Morris Gaines, Jr., is now on the stage in Australia. In all of Mr. Gaines' travels in Europe he says that the chief exposition of race feeling has cropped up in Europe, and the intermarriage of races. Race prejudice does not exist in Europe as it does in America, but there is, considerable opposition to interracial marriage and to intermarriage with about other colored men who are on the stage in Lor lon and a word about colored students.

Eddie visted the city last week, sporting a snappy Willis-Knight car that fairly screamed of prosperity. He is now a comic with Apollo stock burlesque company in New York City and the Club Alabama Revue. He also stages white musical performances. He Green renewed old acquaintances all of whom remembered when he, Johnny Hudgins, James Riley, Annie and Leroy Gresham, Travis Tucker, Slim Jones and other local lights, were members of the numerous stock companies that held sway here years ago. Eddie, aside from his activities in the theatre and cabaret also finds time to write a song occasionally. Visits AFRO The artist visited the AFRO-AMERICAN plant and seemed amazed at the growth of the buildings and improved equipment which he saw. He is enjoying a few weeks away from home and will return to burlesque in August. Asked to describe what the Club Alabama is like, Eddie said. "It is the largest and best downtown New York night club with a colored show. It has a good program reeks with the beautiful and the nude. There are just oodles of pretty brownskin chorus girls, beautiful, well-formed, wearing little and a whole page of pictures devoted to Johnny Hudgins and another one to Jean Starr, who is billed as the 'pretty personality' Hostery Ad Another page shows a sweet little high brown advertising Proper Blue Edge hosiery and under another full page of advertisement has Johnny Hudgins advertising the Revelation suitcase with the commission. There are two more, whom it's packed for a week-end, a week or a month. Wears Vell On top of the program is a photograph of Jean Starr as a bride in a white dress, wears a hat, a necklace and a veil. The club opens at 11, according to Eddie and quits around three as required by Mayor Walker's new bridal law. Same Show "I work in the day at the Apollo and the first show at the Club Alabama is around 12:40 at night and my second around 1:45. At this club we put on the same show for about twenty-five weeks, not changing it in any respect unless something special tips. Even if money is thrown to them it is collected by the waiters not by the actors. Orange Crush. $1.50 "As to the heat," Eddie declared, "an orange crush which you buy for five cents at a drug store in Balti- more costs $1.50; a chicken sand- wich consisting of two thin wafers and the essence of a chicken costs 1.75.

Seven Shows At Once Swinging of directing chorus girls Eddie told of how he had 7 shows going at once and how impossible it was for him to remember which dances he had given to each one, and the fellow, he said, who originates the method of directing down dance individual can take it home and do it by note, so to speak, will make his fortune. Some of the girls, he said, write down in long hand what they think a dance is like and study these notes on the stage to remember their part. White Girls in Chorus Asked if he had any trouble with white chorus girls, he said they were more difficult to direct than colored girls, that some of them hardly saw their left foot from their right. "I would rather direct two white shows than one colored show, however," he said, "because the colored girls refuse to be punctual." "A white chorus girl knows that if she doesn't report promptly her place will be taken by another who will do just as well." Punctual "A colored girl knows she is hard to replace, so she misses her rehearsal and then comes back then ex day fussing with the director because he has put somebody else in her place. The day she missed she probably broke up the rehearsal because the new girl hit her to be broken in heart and her whole girls are held up for an hour or so while she learns it. "There are no how legs or knock- knees among the chorus girls of New York." Eddie declared, "but the me- tropolis has the pick. The only rea- son these girls get a chance else- where is because the supply is way below the demand." Read Afro Classified Ads.

There is set a little "ROUGHNECKING" going on, where actors are dressed and dry, going upstairs, going upstairs, shirring, and scrapping, but what about of what proprietors had to suffer years ago. Personal allusions granted forgive, I recall the time that I have covered the entire Northwest section on Monday morning to get a good place for decent performers, or ANY place for bad ones. That is all over and some of the finest homes in town welcome them. The session is obvious, the newcomer into the profession is inherently refined, and the "tight" ones find that it is best to be present even though it hurts. So widespread has become in hospitality extended them that the "strainers and scriviers" who have been adverse to picking up a little honest challenge with their allusions about, "I find it so thrilling to touch elbows with rank and file."

BE YOURS! A smart slang expression among the boys and girls of 1886 was "You gimme a pain." That is just what many of the professionals inflict me with when they hand me that old stuff about "resting." When an individual, act, or company is "laying off" there is nothing to wear in that. But false pride makes many answer, when a query is made about where they are working. We are resting. We could obtain work, but their engagement is too many, that they could obtain to take a new angle to this is that many of them are obliged to wear their "resist" for many weeks. BE YOURSELVES.

In return for Beckwith the Sox management received Mark Eggles-ion who played third in Houston burg this year Wil伯利 Pritchard, a baseball player, and Burtle Cooper, another pitcher. Cooper is a right-handed player in one y consideration involved is not known, but is re-elled batting well up in three figures changed hands from Harrison Bidle more as Beckwith was one on the greatest hitters in the country last year in batting and home run clouts. Eggleson A Catcher Eggleson is really a catcher, but has been playing third all season with the Senators. He and Ben Taylor are old males as the two were on the Washington Potomac in The batting records for 1925 have not been compiled, but Eggleston turned in an average of 123 runs in the 1924 season, which rather a nice bit of hitting. He played with the Indianapolis A. B. as in 1925 and the Chicago C. B. as in 1924 and he was among the most valuable players on the roster. Cooper also was a member of the A. B. C. B. in 1923. He went to Harrisburg in 1924 and has been with that club ever since. His record shows that he has won over two third of his games last year. Pritchard Pritchard made his appearance in Eastern league circles in 1923 and Harrisburg. His home is in Chester, Pa. and the portiesor has been playing with a number of the best semi-pro clubs in Pennsylvania. Bent Taylor used Eggleston behind the plate as he is rated one of the best backstops in Eastern circles. He is noted for his ability to be shifted to third base. Jobb will be shifted to third base. Taylor believes he has the heat of the deal as he was sorely in need of pitches and these they have turned back some of the best clubs in the loop this year and are at the peak of their stride. The last week with the away Sunday for the first Sunday since the season opened. They will play the Lincoln Glants at the Catholic Local fans will be able to get a stall on the new order of things when the Sox play the Brooklyn Royals host the first time this year.

Ben Taylor, manager of the Black Sox, believes too much criticism has been aimed at him by the fans during the last few games and since the club has been in a slump, he thinks much of this has been put to his door. This column suggested last week that Wilson be used at first base because Taylor was not capable of playing that position, but to give the manager a better perspective of the players and players in action. The APRO is a Sox booster and is just as anxious as the most ball fans to see the pennant being held. He believes that the race after Hilldale and the Black Sox.

Johnson's Greatest Triumphs Came During Year Of 1921 This is the fourth and last of articles dealing with the life of R. Earl Johnson, Olympic star and former five and ten time Olympian, and former student of Morrison College, Baltimore—EDITOR'S NOTE. "After some considerable coxing and encouragement, which was necessary to get the discouragement to get the encouragement, Johnson agree to enter a modified 11-mile marathon from Bellevue to Schenecty Oval, Pittsburgh, in which he carried the Edgar Thompson colors to victory and made a name for himself with his new enployers. Now began a new chapter in his racing career. In another of the track contests, May 30, 1521, he ran from Pittsburgh to Kennywood, 12 miles, in 1:07:00; July 4th, at Pusadena, he ran from America in 23:2-3.5." TRIUMPHS At San Francisco, July 17th, he won a special 3-mile invitation race against the country’s best who had to play at Pasadena at Pasadena a few days before. In this race Johnson broke the Pacific Coast record. Returning to Pittsburgh, Johnson on July 23rd, won the Allegheny Mountain championship in a race from Bellevue to Schenectady. Oval, breaking the 30th, he won a 10-mile race at Cleveland against some of the best distance runners in the country, lowering the course record by 10 minutes. On August 30th, he won a 10-mile race at Kennettwood, lowering the track record. August 17th, he won three races at Johnstown, Pa., returning to that August 24 to win a special 3-mile event. August 27th, he won an 8-mile handicap race in Pittsburgh, and on September 10th, he won the 15-mile race at Detroit against a field of the best runners that could be secured, finishing 2-1.2 miles ahead of his nearest competitor. On September 15th, he won 15-mile race from 1 to 12 minutes start on him, and a week later won the 10-mile amateur national championship in New York.

Johnson says, is due to the fact that he has never indulged in tobacco or alcohol, and never dissipated his strength. "My ambition," says Johnson, "is to secure a wide and exhaustive knowledge with the win and persistence of the students, and the great work to be done in this field, and my athletic achievements give me a prestige among those people which have made a great mark in making my efforts successfully.

GA.—Tiger Flowers, middle weight champion, has adopted some queer pets. While en route in his roadster from Hot Springs, JACK, his train is stopped on a road miles near where.

FIGHT LOOMS OVER GODFREY'S SERVICES Mobile Doctor Says He Has Lifetime Contract On Big Heavyweight Boxer JIM DOUGHERTY RUSHES EAST TO FIGHT CLAIM Present Manager States Cafey Is "Voodoo Doctor" And Has George Hypnotized LOS ANGELES, Caff.—C. P. N. B.)—Smith Williams, professionally known as George Godfrey, one of the four leading heavyweights in the country, is likely to be the bone of contention in one of the biggest fights over a fighter's services ever waged before the New York Boxing Commission. Jim Dougherty, manager of George Godfrey's Walker, rushed East from Los Angeles last week to appear before the New York Commissioners to fight a lifetime contract on Godfrey's services recently filed before the Commission by Dr. Frank A. Clarke of Mobile, Alabama. Dr. Caffey in whose drug store Godfrey worked as a youngster, claims to have discovered Godfrey, naming him in honor of his weight champion in the heavyweight championship of this country, the original George Godfrey, "Old Chocolate," who fought in the fifties of the past century; and states that he holds a lifetime contract on Godfrey's ser In Great Demand In spite of Godfrey's recent defeat by "Chuck" Wiggins on a foul at the Olympic Auditorium, Wednesday, he drew a 30-day suspension from California rings; the righter is looked upon in the East as an able successor to Harry Mary by those who figure Harry on the losing end of his marriage. Dougherty claims that Dr. Caffey is merely a go-between of powerful New York interest who are seeking to undermine him, and who they contract is upheld, by him (Caffey) a big price for Godfrey's services. "Voodoo Doctor" To counteract Caffey's claim, Dougherty is broadcasting thru the daily press stories of Caffey's own press dispatches, such as press dispatches say, "Superstition is one of the time honored weaknesses of the colored race, and Dougherty claims Godfrey is no exception. Godfrey into buying some of his freak medicines, for which he pays fancy prices. "One of these is so-called Norwegian w oil, declared for this, and if he drinks a quart of it before entering the ring it is supposed to make him perspire so heartily that gloves will slide off his skin." One in New York Caffey laid hands on George and predicted he would knock out Jack Thompson as easily as Harry Wills did—in the fourth round. The prediction came from a great doctor. Those knee supporters he wore in the ring against Wiggins are of special preparation. They cost $100 a piece. Caffey sold 'em to him, the wearer can never be knocked out. At least that's the supposition." Kaysees Win First First Half Of League CHICAGO—The Kansas City Monarchs, champions of the Western League, won the first half which ended last week with a per centage of 54.

Pa.—Charles Fred White of Philadelphia State Athletic Commission, has started trainigf for a comeback in track athletics, after fourteen years out of running competition. White thinks he is one of the fastest dash men of his age in the country and he intends to challenge all the fifty-year-olds to race scant him in a 50-yard or 100-yard dash on his Fiftieth birthday, August 5, 1926. White studying law at the University of Penn. white he graduate from Penn. white was a star member of the track teams and made quite a reputation as a runner. After trying out last Sunday and Monday Commissioner White feels that he is as fast on his feet now as when he last competed for the University and that all he needs is to make a little to imitate his endurance.

J.—Manager Andy Harris of the Newark Stars, announced this week that the New Jersey entry has quit the Eastern league, the players disbanded and will seek berths in other outfits. While no formal statement has been issued by the reputed owner, Wilbur Crelin, it is reported that he has never beaten the club and left the men flat before the season. The club got off to a very poor start and was able to win but one out of eleven starts, this coupled with financial difficulties made conditions impossible for the club to continue. Three Home Games While the club used David's Stadium, the Newark International League Park as its home grounds, only three games were staged there for the colored leaguers. Considering the material available and flood of food for building "that manager Andy Harris made as creditable showing as could be expected. The players of the defunct team are a matter for the league Commissioners to dispose of and distribute. Several players on the tail-end outfit may die in and strengthen of the other clubs in the circuit. The same condition confronted the league last season when the Willington Potomacs dropped out of the race. At the meeting of the Commissioners which is stated for a near deal it is expected that they will vote to continue the league with the remaining seven clubs as there is not another prospect in sight. Another club that is expected to go out of the league next year is the Brooklyn Royals. The Royals are way behind in the league race and have only two players out of the owners in the circuit are opposed to the methods of Nat Strong who is owner of the Brooklyn entry. He has fulfilled to carry out scheduled games, the last two years, to book semi-pro white clubs that are supposed to draw larger crowds to his park on Sundays. The club is kept on the road up New York State and no effort is made to carry out games with other league teams. Must Have Home Grounds It is pointed out that it is better for the league to play with six teams that will play the scheduled games than with different owners. Altho the Cuban Surs are leading they have played only 13 games. The islanders will have to do some rushing to play the 60 games that will have to enter the world series. As they have no home grounds, it is almost impossible for them to play the required number. It is rumored that they will have home grounds next year before entering the Eastern loop.

The trio, a woman and two men, were arrested upon information furnished the police by Mrs. Nannie Thomas, of Newport News, Va., mother of the dead man, upon her arrival here to attend the burial of her son. Mrs. Thomas presented a letter to the police officer signed by Oddie Johnson, one of the men, in which she was told of the tragedy. So vivid were the details concerning the mysterious shooting that police immediately proclaimed, Johnny Martha Green, and Clarence Bates who confessed sending the letter to the boys' mother. They denied that they knew anything about the shooting other than what had been common gossip. Knowing the man and his friends they sent her word of the murder, they said, advising her to come at They were arrested, according to Marshall Standsbury, of the Towson police because they were able to describe in detail how many but had entered the man's yard and where. This caused the suspicious person to be said. They explained that because they were friendly with the man they had been particularly interested and inquired at the morgue. Upon the dismissal of the prisoners police resumed the original theory that the man met his death in a bedroom of clues that violated the apprehension of the guilty parties, investigations may be dropped, it was said. Three weeks ago Watkin's body was found outside Towson. It was badly decomposed. Nearby residents remembered hearing shots the week before.

Corners and meeting places have become a hotbed of political discussion. The three main events which seem to be of moment to the colored voter is the race for Governor, United States Senator and State Senator. There seems to be a distribution of prominent leaders behind Senator Weller, Representative Hill, Harry O. Levin, Milton Alfeld and those who are up for judges. Not one Negro of prominence has been elected to the re-election to champion the re-election of Governor Ritchie—You just can't find one. Maneuvers are being made by those who are behind each candidate, which have for their purpose the swinging of the sons of Ham behind some prospective candidate. Each crowd seems to feel that it has the power to win. Senator Weller has the 17th ward. If he can add the 14th also, he can control the Fourth District. The fourteenth ward has become the battle ground for the contestants on both sides. It will take a seer to tell just what is going to happen in front for the situation, which is now in a muddle. These are the main arguments that one hears on the corners: "Mr. John Smith," if I am allowed to use the name, "is not pushing his campaign fast enough," to use the name, "has had his headquarters open since last December." "Mr. Altfeld is going to give the colored people a million dollar hospital if he is elected." "Mr. Altfeld won't be able to put the bill through, and if he does Governor Ritchie, he will get the bill in 1922 and Governor Ritchie vetoed it." "How in the name of all the gods at once do you expect to get a million dollar hospital when we can't get a place to put manacles." Every argument pro and con can be heard among those who are leading right for their respective candidates. Meetings: Yes. secret meetings and sending for the boys has become a common occurrence. The question is, can Negroes be coerced to vote in the state legislature or just performances. Though Democrats have colored followers, they are not preaching from the house tops these days. You just can't tell where a certain group of colored registered Democrats are sailing. The old adage, "A still tongue makes a wise head." No Ritchie The only thing that one will not have to guess about is that colored folk will not support Governor Albert C. Ritchie Negroes are won't to tell you that he is the most dangerous man in the state since the days of the lamented Jeff Davis. Negroes will tell you that Governor Ritchie is building on the dead bones of a lost cause, which was settled sixty years ago at Apomotax, and that the Negro who casts a vote for him next fall will be the most vestigious of principle that Lincoln toled for and the Union fought for. Another argument which is receiving much impetus is that three colored men should be put up in the fourth district for legislation to address the weight among leaders of all factions and is being discussed in every nook and corner. State Senator In some states conferences are being held as to the advisability and soundness of running a colored man in the Fourth Legislative District for State senator. This move has the earnest support of one group. Monday the campaign started for ten and a half months it will rage with unusual fury and may whiteness. ING Co. em" SYSTEM OF No Ritchie State Senator The Afro-American----South's Biggest and Best Weekly Debs Says Whites Should Blush With Shame At Treatment Of U.S.Negroes Brutal Kidnapper And Slave Trader, Patriots And 100 Percenters Who Make Jim Crow Car Laws and Form Mobs Scored By Great Socialist Leader, Who Discusses Kentucky Mob's Latest Pranks. By EUGENE V. DEBS (In American Appeal) It took just fifteen and a half minutes to try, convict and sentence a man down life Kentucky a few days ago. It is the record for the swift execution of justice as administered by courts of law in the United States. It is granted that the Negro thus summarily sentenced was guilty of a terrible crime. dealing with the Negro in the North than in the South the reason is to be found in the human consideration of the Negro in the Northern states. A study of the Kentucky mob hold at bay by the state militia would have revealed the fact, in all probability, that the mob consisted wholly of people who considered themselves unarmed "peaceable and have abiding citizens." We doubt if one could have been found who was not strong for "equality before the law" and for the pres- The point we are now making, though set like steel against capital punishment, is not that the punishment was too swift or too severe, but that the extraordinary trial and conviction in this case were due solely to the fact that the defendant was a Negro. Instead of a white man instead of a Negro the judge would have given the case nation-wide attention; the governor would not have been required to order out the state militia; and all the resources of the state would not have been brought into play to prevent another lynching, a possible burial at the stake, followed perhaps by the grusome sale of the victim's bones as savage evidence of superstition" and of the law as administered in our Christian civilization. Murder Committed The Negro in this instance committed murder and was guilty, it is assumed, of rape, though this feature of the frightful affair is left to the inference in the press reports. In any event it was, as we have stated, terrible crime. But what made the crime infinitely more terrible in the eyes of the Christian citizens of Kentucky, where Nordic culture and white supremacy prevail, and where our venerated civilization, based upon the golden rule and upon the precepts of charity and forgiveness taught by the Master is made unpopular, was established in His name, is that it was committed by a human being with a BLACK skin instead of a WHITE one. A Near Lynching That the mob of bloodthirsty Christians who surrounded the court house and were only held at bay by the armed forces of the state did not add another lynching to their Christian record was not all the fault of a few bright-hearted theses, these pious American citizens, with all their baset passions unleashed, thirsting for blood to gush their forcious vengeance. Merely speaking, they lynched their victim and are guilty of that enormous crime, the blood-lust inflicted from their remote ancestors in the primal jungles. Many and many a Negro girl, scarcely out of her childhood, has been seduced, ragged, assaulted by a Nordic gentleman (1) with a white skin, but it has never been necessary to order out the state militia to毒咬 him against the death of his Christian citizens. Times without number have white men committed crimes as well as nonwhite men in this case, but there is no fifteen and a half minute record in their trials, and in many cases they were dismissed with light sentences. Land Of The Free It makes all the difference in the world in this "land of the free and home of the brave"; this land of Christian civilization: this land of equal rights and equal opportunities, corner-same and equal opportunities, are created equal; this land of Nordic culture that boasts of being the vanguard of intellectual, moral and spiritual progress, the herald of "peace on earth and good will to men"—it makes all the difference in the world whether God Almighty gave you a white skin or a black one, for you are the color of your soul. It is a pathetic commentary on this tragic affair that what was in the feeble, flickering, benighted brain of that black wretch was infinitely less dangerous to society than was the blood-lust in hearts of the prosperous and law-abiding citizens who have strove to rend him at the stake and dance like fiends incarcerate to the music of his agonizing shrieks. All Wretches Allike Biological science has no difficulty in accounting for the black wretch who raps a white woman, any more than it has in accounting for the white wretch who raps a black woman. But there is no cut-line of accounting. From first to last the white man has every advantage and the Negro is the victim of the most cruel and wicked discrimination and persecution. Let it not be overlooked in this connection, that the Negro was designed to help in ignorance by stuury and entreatment in this country for more than two centuries; that it was forbidden by law, drastically entered, that he be taught to read or write, or that he be permitted to rise above the animal level; and that the Negro Hilder degenerates who who who is in danger of being Mr. White Man need lay no hatteringunction to his guilty soul. Whites Should Blush The whole history of the Negro race in America is one of make the white race blush scarlet with shame. From the time the poor black man was seized in his native land by the brutal kidnapper of the Negro, and for the impoverished like a beast and on landing sold like one from the auction block, from that time to the "Jim Crow" car has been one continuous shameless persecution of the Negro, and for the impoverished under such human and degrading conditions he is certainly under no obligation to his former white slave-drivers—his present white persecutors. The people of Kentucky are neither the white nor the black people of the people of any other state. M. there is less cruelty in Why An Inter-racial Commission? The legislature of 1924 of which Senator Harry O. Levin was a member, created an act that authorized the establishment of a commission affecting the welfare of the colored people of Maryland. The Commissioners are men of highest standing, non partisan, head- are ready to report to the next Legislature, and to doubt their recommendations will be followed unless the Democrats again forget them No self-appointed or politician committee appointed by a Democrat is necessary to supplement the work of this unbiased, nonpartisan Commission. Any office seeker who states otherwise and attacks decent colored citizens at public meetings or elsewhere is simply a self-explorer after votes of colored people. Mr. Levin's Democratic opponent was a member of the Legislature of 1914, and during the entire session never opened his mouth or lifted his head on behalf of the race. Will this office seeker, if elected pledge himself and his party to repeal the nefarious laws, which Mr. Levin opposes and has repeatedly said, but everybody is in favor of sufficient hospitals for all inter-communities, can safely rely on Senator Levin to take care of our inter- 24-Hour Service Special Storage Rates First Class Service WILSON GARAGE 511-519 Wilson Street MAdison 0443 The Uniform Department, K. of P., N.

A study of the Kentucky mob would have revealed that state militia would have revealed the fact, in all probability, that the mob consisted wholly of people who pride themselves upon being "peaceable and law abiding citizens." We doubt if one could have been who was not proud enough to be for the pression of "law and order." It is equally certain that without exception they were all one hundred per cent. Americans, those who were virtuous foreigners" mulling around madly intent upon the beast of blood. They were chiefly if not wholly native to the soil, having from the beginning a deep religious tradition, and having never been. like the poor Negro, kept under the lash, exploited, robbed, degraded in every possible way to make possible the blessings of such a white and civilization for white race. Mob Of U. S. Patriots No loss certain is it that the mob consisted entirely of American patriots. Not one of them is long in "patriotism" and would "dight" at the drop of the卜 to punish "truters," especially Socialists and such who are best known for overthrowing the government by force. I venture to say that there was not a Socialist in that mob of Christian citizens and American This article has been written from the point of view that men are men and that human beings are human beings, irrespective of creed or color, and any civilization based upon the vicious fatties that a race should be discriminated against because of the color of its skin, is a false and pernicious civilization and a hypocritical one as well, if it dare allow us to Christian in the name of the Gillean Carpenter who would today, were here, soon and hast the pharisees who profess to be his followers, to be his forgiven, to realize, rob and debase those of their fellow beings over whom they exercise their despotic and damn dominion.

At application time Tinyse secretary of the original concern, actively headed the theatre with Oliver Pierce assistant and house manager. Since the entry of the Cecil company, he and Tinyse secretary and Pennsylvania capital, both Tinyse and Pierce have left the theatre, Charles Harris director of the Commonwealth Band, evidently retaining his position.

At School 112, the largest of these summer schools there are 520 pupils enrolled, the Junior High comes next with 451. There are 255 at school 109, and 130 at Morgan College. At School 102 there are 255. Under the new plan in the system there are two objectives in the summer schools. The course is to show the retarded support to make up any deficiency in the regular work. The other is to give the exceptionally capable boys and girls an opportunity to push forward in advance of their regular class. Quite a number of boys and girls are taking advantage of this opportunity, and the system is said to be stimulating ambition among the boys and girls. Advertisement MARSE S. CALLOWAY.

Good Feel The group was represented by Annemess J. Howard Payne and Roy S. Bond who stated that the people were bought in good faith. Taylor, they declared, represented himself as an authorized agent of the company, and taken Gildon Steff, white, manager of the company, was not willing to prosecute the receivers that they had returned the bulk of obsessing goods. The case was worked up by Green and Holmes, and a private detective agency in the city. The former was at one one known as the demon prohibition agent due to his success in stagerials on bootleggers. Taylor was presented by the Grand Jury and is being held under the penalty of imprisonment. While Taylor has admitted that white employed at Steffs, he apprehended about $2,000 worth of silver which he sold, his attorney, Lewis S Flug, declares that a more rigorously of these transactions doubt he brought out at the court. Some Not Summoned A prominent David Hill avenue physician, a dermatist and several other physicians in the northwest whose names were given by "they as his 'customers' were not admitted among the detectives made maps to their homes in quest of stolen goods.

Lavish display of silverware in one or two instances this winter obscured several cases extensive. Stuff silverware was gifted away as prizes at women's card cairs. According to Attorney Flagg, the layers of stolen silver are as guilty as the sellers. Taylor would never have continued his thefts over such long period had he not found a ready market.

Secretly Elected And this is the man, according to our information, whom the Board of Trustees of Lincoln University is secretly trying to host on Lincoln University as its head. Time to Fight The time has come for every self-respecting alumnus of Lincoln University, not only to resent manfully this insult on the part of the Board, but to accept its challenge and oppose it to the bitter end. We want to my mind, has shown itself unfit to continue longer in its position by its disloyalty to the history, tradition and spirit of the founders of Lincoln University. Synuathre I have always maintained an attitude of sympathy for the Board of Trustees; always believed that it was in heart friendly and willing to do the right thing, to the best of its judgment, for the progress of Lincoln. I felt that the present estranged relation between it and the alumni association was a mere matter of misunderstanding that on the one hand, the Board, composed entirely of white men, was in the dark in regards to the aspirations, ideals and ambitions of the modern age. I agree that this must be adjusted by the appointment of colored men on that Board. Understanding That, on the other hand, the alumni association, was in the dark in regard to the constitution and government of Lincoln University by the Presbyterian Church. This, I felt, could be easily adjusted by giving the association the proper light on this matter. And so I maintained a sympathetic attitude toward the Board hoping some of them to understand each other, and both work together with all might for the furtherance of Lincoln. Board Unfit However, that may be, if the information we have be correct and we have no reason to doubt it. Then we are compelled to look on the Board of Trustees of Lincoln University not only as hostile to those who have graduated from that institution, and those who attend and those who are prepared to bend, but as hostile to the race for which that institution has done so much. In the Family We have tried to settle our differences in the family in a Christian manner. We did not want to enlist the services of the newspapers of our race, nor the pulpits of other denominations and etc. We did not want to have Presbytery where a Lincoln alumnus is a member and there are very few in these churches. It is not a member) to have that Presbytery to overture the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the U.S. of America to investigate and reconstruct the Board of Trustees. Time for War But now, the time has arrived for The Board of Trustees has brought about this state of affairs. So we must fight, not only to keep out of the presidency such men as Dr. Greenway, Southern born, Southern educated, and Southern in all his sympathies and ideals, but also fight the man who would vote for such a type of man to head a colored institution like Lincoln.

AMEND DECREE IN ARCHIE THOMAS CASE Judge Eli Frank Signs New Order Giving Wife $15 Alimony ACTION MAY START NEW COURT FIGHT Disposition of McCulloh Street House Still Under Consideration An amended order signed Wednesday evening by Judge Eli Frank, in which a clause relating to McCulloh street property was replaced by one granting Mrs. Archie Thomas a divorce and $15 weekly alimony, may again plunge this case back into Circuit court, according to opinion of friends of the principals. In the new decree the status of the minor children, whereby they were to be in custody of the father but spent Saturday and Sunday with their mother, remains the same as does the payment of counsel fees and costs by Mr. Thomas. House Contention In the first decree signed by Judge Frank, the Thomas home at 1934 McCulloh street, was ordered transferred free from any incumbrances to Mrs. Thomas, except for the operation of a first mortgage on the place which also was to be paid by the husband at the rate of $208 a year. Hardly had the ink in this statement become dry when attorneys for Thomas went back in court to have it modified with the result that the alimony status was maintained pending final settlement. By the terms of the last decree the house was ordered transferred free of alimony, reverts to the husband while Mrs. Thomas gets her decree with $15 alimony. Hope Reconciliation While the no compromise spirit in which the case has been contested leaves no room to believe reconciliation has promised, mind of the proprionals friends of both pari- In the decree signed by Judge Frank it is also set forth that he hereby declared to be the duty of each of them to live chastely during preparation, and that it will be an act void in law for either of them during the life of the other, to contract marriage with any other person."

The thing which holds us back. We are what we make of ourselves, and what we can depend on most is our sense of self. We hindrance within ourselves hold us back from cradle to the grave. Education makes a difference. Some of our men within have failed in business, life simply because they could not make up their mind to get up out of bed early in the morning. How many have you heard say: I do the best I can but I don't seem to get anywhere. There is success, the same thing as gold all around us. We must get out of it the best we can, holding us back.

Presidential Third Term is main Throughout the Republic of Liberia the coming presidential election which will take place in May of 1827 is being discussed. As a whole the people of the Black Republic are said to be well with the new President of the King, who is now serving his second four year term. President King, himself, has not only refused to discuss the third term but has also used every effort to keep his cabinet and the government generally to the government's side, and ideas that there is much work to be done to spend time with politics at this early date. Leaders of the opposing People's Party have expressed admiration for this wise stand. Supporters of the third term idea show that other presidents have served more than two terms; oppose counter with the fact that at one time the term of office was for only two terms and that no president has served for more than eight years. They also point to the policy of George Washington, who declined the third term because establishing a United States based American empire. Many feel that Liberia cannot afford to follow American precedent in every instance as the conditions here are so vastly different. from the conditions existing in the United States. Lorenz B.

If you develop it along proper lines. Of course, like every other machine it will crumble under extreme pressure, so you must put on a safety valve. Have you ever studied your work, your employer, and your surroundings or have you, like a horse, bound to your daily tasks do what is driven out of you and stop immediately when the clock says, "What." Then you are ready for the stable and your oats and then what? The card table, the dance hall or a salon? If so, you are only worth just so much and no more, and what is worse you will never be worth any more than you are now, and will in all probability be worth less as the years go by. S. N. Muttery Fr. Dorsey Since the death of "Our Father Harry Dorsey" as the late Rev. John H. Dorsey was affectionately called by a large host of friends here in this city, serious concern is being expressed by Catholics that the first time in nearly forty years the ancient See of Baltimore in America now is without a resident colored Catholic Priest. Hope that His Grace Arch-Bishop Curley, upon his return to America will have his attention at once directed to this situation, and that he will endure to till the place of our Father Dorsey is being discussed in many gatherings of the race, Catholic and pop-Catholic alike. Lincoln U. No sooner do we settle difficulties at Howard University by the election of its first colored president than trouble crops out at Lincoln University. Under the Presbyterian church Lincoln University was one of the first schools for the higher education of colored youth. More conservative than any other similar institution it has steadfastly refused to place colored men upon its truss teeboard or its faculty. But two years ago the faculty and the trustees have been deaf to petitions of the alumni that Prof. Walter Wright, now acting president, be selected permanent yee fill that position. During this time two presidents selected by the trustees have declined because of alumni opposition. The third was elected last year. He is the Rev. William Greenleaf, a graduate of William Presbyterian Church, of Philadelphia, known as John Wanamaker's church. No one knew much about the Rev. Greenway until he preached a sermon last week in which he showed his sympathy for the Mayor of Philadelphia to task because he had banned the Ku Klux parade at the requi-centennial exposition. Alumni were suspicious of the new president because the trustees had failed to announce his election. They wanted the Rev. Greenway to accept before they made a public statement. The alumni were further suspicious of him because of the fact that he was born in Tennessee and is therefore, a Sooner. His attribution to the Ku Klux Klan confirmed their suspicion. Word was sent out from the General Alumni Organization of Lincoln this week to alumni in all parts of the country not only to unite in urging the Rev. James to accept presidency but also to accept alumni association to petition through their local Presbytery, the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church to investigate the situation at Lincoln and to replace the trustee board. This is the proper step. There is no room at Lincoln University to understand the nature in name or in sympathy. It is difficult for us to understand why he would want to head a colored university. If he does accept, our only hope is that the alumni of Lincoln will manifest the same unity and courage characteristic alumni House President J. Stanley Durkee and elect a satisfactory head in his place. Writes The Afro -AMERICAN Welfare and the Square Deal Afro-American Building, $28 N. Eutaw -American COMPANY. and Publisher, 1896 to 1922 D.

Ass: Neutral In Nothing on and fremont, county and State Board of Education, is for school teachers without regard. State institutions where inmates are among all groups of colored college for covered people supported byarmers and the State and Federal arm. "Forever" Frank Kent, writing from the south, for the Baltimore Sun, finds that the states in bake have used the Democratic primary as a means of disfranchising colored voters. Commenting upon this he states that the south has found a means which is apparently within the law and, which seems to be destined to be effective FOREVER. The only trouble about that word "forever" is the frequency with which political writers misuse it. Historians sometimes make the same mistake. It was only a little over a half century ago that the law in most southern states regarded the Negro as property, like a cow, or dog or a house and lot, he could be handed down from one generation, from another and his heirs FOREVER. Under the law, before 1914, kings of Prussia were FOREVER, to be also emperors of Germany. Caesar in discussing the blueeyed barbarian he found in England declared they could NEVER be civilized. The disfranchisement of the Negro in the southern states is not the only reason that William Cabell Brues in the United States Senate this year admits that "the least said about it the better." ... There is nothing Christian about it because the golden rule never organizes to the advantage of the strong or the better trained. It is not legal because the constitution expressly states citizens of the United States shall not be barred from voting on account of their color. The Democratic primary may keep the subterfuge of the southern states within the law, but it doesn't make it legal. Now the question we want to ask Mr. Kent is, how he could believe that a thing which is unAmerican, illegal and un-Christian could last FOREVER? Clearly, he wrote, without thinking. He is in the same class with the short sighted individuals who told Robert Fulton that his steamboat owned power and who told the Wright brothers that their airplanes would NEVER fly. Tydings Colonel Millard G. Tydings (Dem.) of Havre de Grace, represents Maryland in the House of Representatives in Washington. He is also a candidate for the United States' Senate the next election. Last week in the House he engaged in a debate with Representative John Philip Hill Republican, the questioning Howard University a federal institution. Col. Tydings declared that he opposed appropriations to Howard University on the ground that it was a private institution and the United States government should not aid such schools. The government should be consistent, according to Col. Tydings. If it is going to appropriate federal funds for Howard Univ., it should also appropriate federal funds for white private schools. There is nothing wrong with Colonel Tydings except that like white friends we have the colonial invokes his logic at the unusual and unexpected moment. Colonel Tydings lives in Maryland, he has lived here all of his life. He knows that this state spends $1,000,000 annually for the State University of Maryland from which all colored people are barred. He knows, also that he state of Maryland support is the institution of high school for colored people in the state and that all colored children who want an education higher than the high and normal schools must go to universities outside of Maryland for that education. Now, Colonel Tydings, you want to be logical and you want to be fair, is there any good reason why other states should support colleges and universities for training of colored people in Maryland? Is there any logic or reason why the Maryland should tax the colored people just as it taxes the white people and then set up institutions with state funds which from which they are barred? If there is some logic in that, why not let us have the benefit of while you move in Maryland and make some statement about it while you were in the state Legislature, why wait and go to Washington and then have a word to say about Howard University? Of the matter is the reason why the government has for over a half century supported a university for colored people at Washington, is that many southern states like Maryland right people who think their thirst is all the school funds on universities and state colleges for whites only.

We have five community centres for colored people on the Canal Zone, operated by federal Amer- icans, of which we are in the States, and here by the U. S.

Here is a question Easton folks fire at Kelly Miller. To the Editor: There are a few people in Easton, who are as myself who would like to know and a while through his letter to the readers to a con- versation he had with a certain taxi driver of Easton, the spring of 1924 while he was in the town delivering This man is 30 or 40 years old, the Mr. Miller states he is sixteen years of age and he is very fine man, his father was a very fine man with a large family background, so this taxi driver did not have the advantage of a college education as did Prof. Miller or attending public school very That's why he did not know Frederick Douglass had spent some time in Talbot Co. jail. Then, in Washington, who do not know Mr. Miller is great as he is. Every one enjoys reading lers' letters, but I know the books, but I felt this incident so many times in the Afro. Both Governor and Mayor to blame if bad conditions persist at Cheltenham. Mr. Edwin: "I understand that Mayor Jackson and Governor Ritchie are disposed to anticipate the votes of any number of colored men in the positions they now hold. I have not one adverse word to say about now. However, judge now is the time, before election, to ascertain whether they honor and respect the race clearly in their positions in second-colored teachers for colored boys in the Reformatory at Cheltenham. Would it not be a good thing for all of us to before the Governor and the Mayor? Almost the entire revenue which supports that institution comes from such as the kind of gentlemen that they write a polite letter to the President of the institution saying that they respect with their colored fellow-citizens in their desire for colored teachers for these delinquent boys and that they respectly request that the same be re- If Governor Ritchie and Mayor Jackson should decline to do an act that would be justifiable in supporting them at the polls? The first step in the "reformation" of those boys is the creation of an atmosphere that would be realized. Such can only be realized by competent and efficient teachers of their own race.

Green, 205 Biddle street --- YOU CAN'T PARK HERE Picture 2. Twelve two p. m. Trotter caught in an auto jam outside can't find a place to park. Every available space is filled up with autos and when he thinks he has found a place the sign says, "No Parking Here." DAY BY DAY WITH WILLIAM N. JONES Frank R. Kent, the eminent political observer of the Baltimore Sunpaper, studying political conditions in the Palmetto state, comes to the conclusion that Negroes there succeed in disfranchisement with complacency. Says he: "So far as politics is concerned, the South has satisfactorily solved its political problems. Moreover it contends it has done so in a legal and orderly way. The whites are certainly satisfied, and save for the case of the Negroes the Negroes feel neither resentment nor privation." If Mr. Kent believes this he certainly missed contact with any Negro or any white man in South Carolina who KNOWS THE INSIDE OF THE NEGRO SOUTH. If the Sunpaper's political observer of the Negro he was probably carefully guided to some "leader" known to be "sensible" and who would give him the kind of "applesace" palatable to those who dominate the realm of "Cotey Even intelligent Negroes who have qualified under the drastic franchise laws which give any ignorant, white electorate his ability to explain any part of the constitution read to him as a means of denying him the ballot, the civil war and the South Abrupt civilization must surely reach this part of these United States. The most outspoken and persistent of those men who are fighting for the right of the Negroes to vote in the South and from those groups where Mr. Kent erringly finds Negroes "complacent." The Grimkicks, Kelly Miller, William Pickens, W. E. SB, DuBois, Walter White, W. E. SB, DuBois, hold the mold represent the feelings of the men and women in South Carolina. Down there they realize that they are up against a stone wall. In their hearts and souls are the Negroes who are fighting for the coming generations and mothers breathe into their unborn hables the determination that is helping to make America safe for When a man from South Carolina votes his convictions in New England HE OTES at the OTES for a square deal in Washington. HE IS THINKING OF THE SOUTH. The vibrant, restless and uncompromising foes of Negro oppression come from the South but from that section where they feel the oppressor's heel. THAT FACT ALONE DISPROVES MR. THE NEGROS THERE TAKE DISFRANCHISEMENT AS A MATTER OF FACT. No doubt when the N. A. A. C. P has finished its fight against mob economically against disfranchisement, for DISRANCHISMЕNT acting as it does to keep the Negro enslaved economically in day in the year than persons do in a hundred years. South Carolina 'may be quiescent, but nobody ought to be fool enough While a number of public spirited citizens of Baltimore are making an effort to launch a real promotion for the movement, believing they are working in the interest of some candidate, are trying to abort the movement, for instance an argument reached public print, last week seeking to show that because Governor Ritchie vetoed one hospital measure, the state would start another as long as he is likely to be governor. That is the bummed kind of swan song. Men and women here intervene because there are sick and suffering human beings who need it and not because of the political fortunes of any man. The state is settling it lites along the line of political activity, voters certainly have more hope in voting for a candidate WHAT BELIEVES HE IS WHO BELIEVES HE CAN'T The dominant party in Maryland is Democratic. There are times when Republican senators and even eyesores seek an objective and the very fact that the shallow thinking politician puts forward 'all the more reason that presumptive candidates dominate party to get this matter across.' If these men have made up their mind that they will let the Governor's past vetoes stand in the way of any future effort to get a hospital, all we can say is NO. Furthermore, getting in the way of any project will not mean any candidate any good. Why They Don't Vote In Caroline Sava he: The Hospital And A Swan Song A man is running away from a building.

"But," she continues in a more serious tone, "if the experiences of the flapper of today, with their putting parties, their lack of reserve and discrimination, their movie kisses, and unmutual affection of the sex appeal, is to be anything like those of 20 years ago, God pity them." "In those days," she says, "I belonged to a group girl, of the Primavera Printing and the pace, We attracted the men for they could act with more freedom with us and they called us the good time girls. We drew their skirts and assumed an air of disdain we charged it up to their jealousy and turned on more steam. That was the life, we But there always comes a time in a woman's life when she realizes the thing needs to be done. THE FLAPER OF TWENTY YEARS AGO WOULD NOT BE FLAPERS TODAY IF THEY HAD TO LIVE THEIR LIFE. What the writer of the above communication says is true. Most men and women who can look back twenty years know that there has been a change in the life of the young. Some of this change has perhaps been a real advancement; some of it has not. Twenty years ago, a girl was asked a girl of questionable character, even invited to an exclusive social function, caused careful chaperons to call for wraps and send their charges home in the bedroom. But now chaperons often follow a school girl dance with a trip to a night club where they may end a wonderful night, in a party free to every kind of man who can pay the career charge. Also in connection with these changing times we may note the change in some other information. We now our divorce figures get larger; we are calling for more and more money to home unfortunate women; we need bigger curtails and curtails and twenty years from now there will be a larger number of broken hearts and more people to ask with a sigh. We are Mary, Susie, and John? Fireworks Tour of the city Sunday and Monday disclosed the fact that most of the fireworks were set off in the poor areas and roman candles did not seem to be the means employed by the wealthy to celebrate the Fourth of July.

Some singers think it is nobody else's business, probably accounts for the reason no one can understand the words of the selections they render. The reason for the popularity of illustrated songs in the movies arises from the fact that the music is a choice to understand the words as well as the music. Red Clay Farms along the state road from Taney town to Emmitshill in Carroll County take high rank in the state. Fields are well cleared of stumps, stones and brush; homes and barns are painted and in good repair, fences are maintained. In this respect this portion of Carroll County might well serve as a model for the rest of the state, for it is not only the very prosperous farmers who have learned the lesson of hard work and cleanliness but also the smaller farmers of the county. It may be there is some virtue in the predominating red clay of Carroll County. If it is we recommend that the State Agricultural Department take steps to ship some of Carroll County's red clay to the less favored portions of Howard and Montgomery Counties.

Kelly Miller Says The oppressed must never for a moment let the oppressor think that the oppression is lightly felt. The man who feels the wound must utter the groan.

Twelve twelve p. m., Trotter gives Cal a petition asking for the elimination of segregation and jim crow in' government departments and the appointment of colored people to offices from which they are now excluded. William Monroe Trotter Again To The Fore On last Saturday the National Equal Rights League and United Colored Guards Committee preside at President Hollydale moth petition containing 25,000 names protesting against racial segregation in the government department and management to the rest to say that Mr. Trotter was the moving inspiration of the protestation. In the interest of historical accuracy, Mr. Trotter was due mainly to the indomitable courage and energy of the editor of the Guardian that segregation was forced upon public property. Some years ago, ago, Mr. Trotter headed a delegation to the White House to protest against departmental segregation and definite shape and direction. Because the White House spokesman lost his temper, the item was carried to the national headlines. The discriminatory practice was all but universally condemned. Few were found with the temerity to support the policy of the government in placing a stigma upon any element of American citizenship. The American mind is always fair when forced to a frank facing of a moral Those who manipulate the government will by devious ways circumvent it, when applied to the brother in black or rather the brother in colors, but none but the self-confessed criminologist will be able to reconcile conscience by frank avowal. All right minded Americans will hold up true ideals in principle, but only when they are based upon the translation of these principles into practice. Persistent Advocate Herein Mr. Trotter has been a persistent and consistent race advocate. Despite his faults of his disposition, Mr. Trotter has his share! Monroe Trotter from first to last has stood up right and down straight for every right without reserve and without delay. I have differed with him and still have his views. In his devotion, his courage and persistency command my unlimited admiration. Because I am of a different type of temperament in no worse less than the sincerity of my esteem. How the awards of the Spinberg Medal could year after year overlook the claims of this intrepid agitator for human rights staggers the understated if it does not surpass comprehension. National Testimonial I suggest the staging of a nation wide testimonial to this unrivalled champion of equal rights. Valuing inside person and outside person, I am concerned for the temperament. Mr. Trotter has laid every Negro in America under a heavy debt of gratitude. It was none but he who kept the Negro in the hands of others would have let them die down in the smouldering embers of compromise and debasing peace. But I must not in this release eulogize Mr. Trotter. I am merely a witness to the last Friday was a most dignified and decorous procedure. Mr. Trotter has a genius for the tongue and voice and takes steps to analyze every significant event in American history as a background for portraying the wrongs and demanding the rights of American Negro citizens. I am scarcely visit Boston without rushing into some celebration of some distinguished American or patriotic happening under the auspices of the nation's intent and purpose of keeping alive in memory the just and righteous claims of the colored race. Sesqui Centennial The sequestra centennial week had been proclaimed. The mind of the nation was to be made newly conceived and events which gave rise to the birth of the nation. The rights of man form-d the enacting principle of the Declaration of Independence, so to put it, to take advantage of entering into the pool of liberty while the Angel of Liberty is troubling the waters?

The thought was conceived in Trotters mind and instrumentalities under his guidance. Trotter Spokesman As the committee stood in the august presence of the chief magistrate, I am free to confess, that I for one felt apprehensive that Mr. Trotter as spokesman might let his unrestrained hand of caution and propriety and invigle the President into a faux pas, as he had done on a previous occasion. But disciplined by experience and chastened by the ripening effect of ago, he kept wholly within the canon of the traditional andidential presence. He presented the case of the twelve millions of Negroes to the President of the United States, and dignified manner, such as would have done credit to the apstest discipline of Chesterfield. Every Negro at that moment of Trotter at that moment. Accepts Spirit The spirit and purpose of the petition was fully accepted in principle. This was a tremendous admonition to the very worst of the scandals ago, when the country was led to believe that the White House upheld segregation in principle as well as in practice. The committee was asked to disapprove of the case, and then done to correct the wrongs of, and that much more would be done until the invidious distinction would disappear altogether. There was also the distinct caution that queen was a faithful and troublesome queen, and could not be resolved all at once. Admiration was expressed at the patience with which the race endured discrimination and wrong whose existence was fully recognized and appreciated. 25.000 Names The committee withdrew. The petition with twenty-five thousand signatures remained with the president. The cause of the race had been preempted by the president to do. The response was received with appreciation and understanding. Segregation will doubtless continue the departments, but the issue has been put squerely up do the fountain head of authority. The president now knows exactly how the race feels over the iniquitous system of voting through the medium of the associated press. The race has done its duty. The oppressed must never for a moment be more忠敬 than the oppression is lightly felt. The man who feels the wound must utter the groan. The protest must continue as long as the injury lasts. The spirit of protection will never be forgotten. Tortoise Trot lives and wrong endures. I entered the employ of the government under the civil service discipline as we see it now, was cheated of. There were relatively more Nogreas in the classified service then now. The germs were spread through the sprout into full growth. The present odious manifestation is but part of the degeneracy of the times so far as race feeling is concerned. We must make that segregation is due to the evil machination of any political party or section of the country. The evil alignment or lines of latitude. Nor may we expect any single effort, however significant to bring complete relief. All forces and incomes within the race must cooperate. Dangerous Practice I cannot, however, close this release without one word of caution. This specific protest is against discrimination in the civil service. For several years I have been trying to stress upon the attention of the race the importance of discrimination in the civil service commission through which applicants must enter the classified service. By math, resignation and retirement colored clarks are being rapidly eliminated from government departments. There are few or no fresh recruits. They are shut out at the threshold. I insist in keeping open the port of entry in a few years, there will be left no colored clerks, and the whole question of segregation will be settled by elimination, but state will be worse than the first. Heard and Seen In Baltimore According to the AFRO-police recovered a lot of stolen silver from some of our best homes last week, and those that all gatters wilt not sold. Many a child who was born with a silver spoon in its mouth was surprised to learn that it wasn't paid for. When the detectives started snooping around, a lot of folks weren't half as worried about the ghost in the family closet as they were about the fork in the family cupboard. After the police visited some homes the inmates were heard to sing that cunning over the moon and the cop running off with the spoon. And then it is awful embarrassing to have an officer take your knife right out of your mouth. And it isn't right, just because a guy is serving time for swiping silver to call it silver service. There was a lot of shooting in Baltimore last week, too. One crazy man caused so much trouble that it was thought that two crazy men had licked the whole German Army. Of course, we don't send crazy men to war in this country; we keep them home and send them to Congress. After this maniac got loose the city officials decided that they would lock up all the demented people in the city and abandon the idea when they found it would be impossible to lock up all the people in Baltimore. The man who did the shooting was also said to have been drunk. So they decided to stop selling bad liquor. But good liquor in a bad man is bad liquor. Gasolene and whiskey don't mix, and buckshot and corn are not vegetable soup. An East Baltimore man was shooting at a friend and struck a girl. The girl was dead and he was fishing a sharpshooter school for gun toters. If this sort of thing keeps up no suit will be complete without a bullet proof vest.

Though being well groomed sounds an easy affair, it places very much the opposite. But you a few general rules can help you accomplish it. Smartness its too personal; it means observing the need of current fashion and adapting it to one's own use; smartness demands a girl that is "Smart," her dress a background for her well groomed hair, her velvety skin, her appropriate powder, rouge and lipstick, and manicured hands. Of course she is "Thic." The college girl, careless, is showing poorly cut hair, too long or too short, sunburned, combed hair, driving a car, careless. She is young and does not realize that a traveled strangle of hair makes the most expensive clothes downy. It is hopeless to find a simple perfection and lay down rules by it. The truly successful beauty is the woman whose body is cared for according to its natural The intelligent and irresistibly charming person will have the vogue related to her own possibilities: it will thus express her personality and her personality lack a genuine cache of elegance, if only details are respected; nobody need fail to present a smart appearance. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` Trust Him— As He Trusts You!

It was late in the afternoon when we arrived at the prison, we could see it for blocks away and we needed no prompting to realize that it was a prison as a cold bleak dreary ghastly looking stone building in gray and true to their description this prison was no exception. We were marched directly into the Warden's ante-room, where the formality of turning our commitment papers and securing receipts that we referred to the deputies and the record clerk. A gruff-appearing front office official (who later proved himself a friend to me) came in and grilled each of us. My manacles partner immediately started to impress this official with his importance and personality and it was to the official's inquiry as to his vocation. he stuck out his chest and in a lordly manner replied that he was a public speaker, editor, writer, etc. the official replied that he would do no speaking there, that he would attend to all the speaking and writing. While this retort seemed to lower, in my estimation, the high and exalted standing of my mancled new-found friend with money and position, I couldn't help be impressed so that when he asked me my vocation I replied very simply and without any affections that I was an office man and when he asked me if I could do stenographic work I replied in the affirmative he made a note of same and said he would take it. After these formalities had been finished we were led up into the guardroom where the gates officially closed upon us and we were securely lost in the world of lost men. We had arrived too late to be officially "dressed and after stairing and fowling, including our hat, coat and vest, we were led into the old cast wing in a dark dunk squally cell, hardly large enough to turn around in and told we would remain there for thirty days when better suited to us if we behaved ourselves. My friend was in the next cell and our bunks were supported on a single piece of cross-run-iron which ran between the walls of the two cells and the door to the room. At time my partner would move on his bunk in the next cell it would jar my bunk and it kept me nervous all night as every time that ticklish jar was felt I felt that mules or rats were in the straw mats under the floor I tried to keep out of the future. In this cell was nothing but the rules of the prison hanging on the wall and let the lights went out at nine I would intermittently refer to the rules and look out of the room of my little sister and of the apertures of which at intervals a sleek quiet fellow with a palled complexion with a quick nervous twitch in his eye would pass by with water, singing that old droll cry, w-a-t-e-r, water. I heard my pal next dog ask him to get him out of the room to which he would "See the screw." The poor fellow was not allowed to stop and converse, neither to pass anything to und fro. With no previous experience of such kind I know I was cooler than my next door neighbor, who was the tapped the wall and in a low murmur, whispered, "Isn't this hell." Even as low as his whisper, in this quiet cell-block where a pin滴 could be heard, "the screw" heard it and immediately came over and reprimanded him and told him to read his rules. Eventually I fell asleep and kept staring at him as he wished when he hits a resting place. Thus spent my first night in a state's prison. I awoke in the morning all excitement, bells and bugles were ringing and blowing. The water boys, contrary to their slow quiet tone of the night previous, were hollowing like cappers at a fair, with a stream of "cold water," "hot water," "cold water," etc. I arose, washed and sat at my door. Presently the guard unlocked it. I swept the dirt from my cell into the corridor, placed my bucket outside the door and awaited the third bell which my rules had informed me to throw into the bucket-grounds with our buckets and thence to the dining room for breakfast. I was prepared to do so when the guard came back and locked us new fellows up when I learned that not yet being "blessed" we were to be locked in cells till later. Our breakfast, of which we were to have hundreds like it, was brought to us, it consisted of rice, two cookies and a cup of coffee. Shortly after breakfast we were marched to tailor shop, more than a dressed tailor shop, more than a hickory shirt and illfitting gray-blue regulation pants and coat.

EDITOR'S NOTE—"Within Prison Wolls", the installment of which is published in this issue, was written by a young colored man of good family and training who for obvious reasons is with-holding his real identity, and who due to his ability served (during a course of nearly ten years) in high positions (while an inmate) of which have never been filled by any other inmate of any race. During this series he will dwell intimately on certain phases of prison life rarely if ever, disclosed to the public. IN THE MORNING The Afro-American—South's Biggest and Best Weekly ly history. The deputy-warden then assigned to each of us a job and were sent to work. My friend with so much position and prestige was assigned, to washing dishes in the kitchen while I was sent to a warehouse where I assigned to work. At this laborious work I trudged for two days when to my relief the deputy-warden tapped me on the shoulder and said to follow him. Not knowing what was up I followed him, which led to my first assignment in a clerical capacity the cream of prison jobs and the rest of the company only. They were installing a perpetual inventory system in the prison central stores and needed an experienced man to keep it up. When asked if I could do it and giving a favorable reply I was given the job which lasted for three weeks, when on a Saturday was summoned to the Deputy's Office. Arriving here he asked me a number of questions to find out if I had any connections in the state—something to sort of hold me on the job in case I was to be given one of trust, that I hadn't a friend in the state he gave me the job anyway. It was to be stenographer for the "graff official" I had met on my entrance in the prison the first day. It was at the beginning of war and young men were a premium—worsed had been their custom to employ "free" men for such positions they were unable to secure them and was willing to give an inmate, even though a colored man, a try at it. I went to work that Saturday afternoon, assigned a desk and given certain assistance to a prisoner. I was given an order for a tailor-made suit to be made out of prison regulation cloth, and white shirts, given special privileges in hours to be locked in my cell, days on which I could see the barber and transferred to a new, large clean and comfortable cell with hot and cold water. While the job paid but 25 a day every prison privilege possible was granted thus creating an incentive to give to the job the very best within By Annabelle Robinson, Grade 8 Magnolia, Md.

Baker "Mary Jane is getting so spied I can hardly live with her," remarked Mrs. Ray to her friend, Mrs. Brown. "People are always saying how pretty she is and whenever she receives a compliment on hears she receives a her beauty so she no haughty and affected. She is simply losing her sweet ways. "Just the other day she was with her mother and she stopped them and began talking about the baby's wonderful eyes. Mary Jane, having received no special attention, broke into the conversation with, 'But her eyes are blue. Just look at mine; they are brown.' Mrs. Mahon and her bought it funny, but I was mortified." "Have you ever tried telling her yourself that she is pretty?" asked the friend. "I had the same trouble with Betty Mey. She was older than Mary and I didn't know how she couldn't tell her she wasn't pretty for she was and could see it for herself. Besides, if I had she would have thought my judgment at fault or else considered me unfair, and her friends would have seemed more dependable than her mother. I stumbled the problem and decided I would be frank with her. "One evening Betty May came in unusually happy, 'O, Mother!' she exclaimed, 'I've had more compliments today. I'm just crazy over this dress. Make me another one just like it in the new red shade, won't you, Mother do?' "I will do anything I can for my lovely daughter," I replied. "She looked at me, surprised. "Yes, you are beautiful. I assured you, and it is nice of your friends to tell you." "In the conversation that followed I spoke of several of her girl friends and remarked how pretty and sweet they are." "After a while she said, 'Why, Mother, do you think they are all pretty,' "Yes, I replied, 'they all have the beauty of youth. One girl may have wondered over the sweetest of smiles, but they are all pretty. I've been wanting to tell May Sue how sweet and pretty she looked the other day.'" "Mother, you don't mean to say that May Sue is pretty!" exclaimed Betty May. "Yes, she is pretty." I answered. I heard Mrs. Handon and Mrs. Wray telling her the other day how wonderful she was. She really has the sweetest smile I ever saw. Then there is Mable Lee, Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Griet telling her the other day how wonderful eyes—said they had a fun-like look and would melt a heart of stone. "O. Mother!" and the tears came into Betty Mays' eyes, that is just what they told me. Do you suppose people compliment all the girls that way, yes, my dear, they are nice to all the girls I said. "Every girl should look and act her best so that her friends will be proud of her." "So Betty Mays awakened to the fact that it wasn't unusual to be pretty and became her sweet self again, appreciating her many compliments but no longer compliments," she said, for telling me this: "said Mrs. Ray. "Betty Mays is one of the most charming girls I know. I shall try your plan." Heroes Jessie E. Baker From A Woman's Viewpoint BY LILIAN LOTTIER TWO MODERN GRANDMOTHERS She was within speaking distance of three score years and ten, and she was a grandmother of three, despite these scores. She was rigged out like a teen-age girl. The bubbed-hair end of her wore the latest thing in flapper headgear. This topped a face whose heavy coating of rouge and powder wholly failed to hide betraying crow's feet, even tho she complacently imagined the contrary. The other end of her teetered on high-heeled, light-colored, suede pumps, the kind of foot-wear that requires the spring and elasticity of thick outfits. As would be expected, her dress was made in one of those extreme styles which are designed for slim, straight outlines and graceful carriage. Over it she wore a loud-checked coat of the sport variety. She hailed it me with what she evidently meant by intimation of engaging with her. Of course, she was also wearing long ridicules, and it was with equal feelings of amusement and irritation that I awaited her approach. When we parted the amusement had changed into disgust, for the silly woman's whole conversation had been of the most frivolous, trifling, inconsequential matures—the kind of chatter one expects from and excuses in a teather-brained miss of sixteen. She let me with the tremendous. "My, you're looking well. You haven't changed much at all. That's right, keep young. Folks don't get old these days. I know I don't intend to. I tell everybody that no one needs to be any older than she wants to be now." I am sure she departed with the fattered certainty that she had impressed me with her up to date smartness and immensely youthfulness. I was cheerful guilty of saying to myself. "Old fool. I hope I'll have more sense than you have when I'm your age. I know I don't want to look like you." Then, in my mind's eye, I saw another woman of my acquaintance whom I did indeed wish to resemble in the years to come. She was quite the same age as her would-be youthful daughter, but you wouldn't think she would be able to hide it with foolish frivolity and speech. She didn't fool herself into thinking she could "put one over" on Father Time; she accepted her years with quiet dignity and wore them with a gracious sincerity which charmed all who knew her. This doesn't mean she dressed in the somber hues and dowdy manner of the grandmother of yesterday. Unless her attire was always the perfection of modishness as to color, material, and style, but every thing she chose was selected with good taste and with a due sense of the fitness of things. Perfectly well does she know that you youthfulness of body was fled, no amount of gay attire can hide its passing. So, not for her is the pitiful pretense, the silly attempt to dodge plain facts. She can concerned in cultivating and preserving what is far more important and precious than the external evidence of youth, and that is its spirit and Our flapper grandmother was quite right in her revolt against a custom that denied women their love of pretty things after a certain age, that set her aside in dreary uselessness or in insignificance, chimney corner duties, that autoratically thrust upon her a second childhood whether she wished it or not. But the poor lady mistook the shadow for the substance, the symbol for the reality, the outward evidences for the inward graces. Fourth is more than a time of life which we can have just so long and should matter what clothes we wear. It is a state of mind, a quality of the soul which we can keep always. It is not only "ripe cheeks, red lips and supple knees;" it concerns also the imagination, the will, the emotions. Keep these strong, fresh, vital, and you are ever young. Some one has said,—"In the central place of your heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, grandeur, courage and power from the earth, from men, and from the infinite, so long are you young." So long as we tolerate the grandmother whose youthfulness consists of an eternal freshness of the deep springs of life, and not in the senses-aging of young-age attire. By the children's Bureau, United States Department of Labor For over a century and a half, a half-cod liver oil has been known to exert a favorable influence in rickets. Proof that cod liver oil had a specific culinary action was that of sunlight, was obtained in this country in 1921 and the cure demonstrated by x-ray photographs of the bones of rachite children. As a result of even more recent experiments it is probable that the sunlight and cod liver oil in the cure of rickets is the same and that the oil from the liver of the cod fish has acquired its antirachitic power from the sunlight passing through the water to the fish or to the plants eaten by the fish or vegetable oils, milk, green vegetables and grains may also acquire this antirachitic power if treated with ultraviolet radiation. When cod liver oil is ingested by the antirachitic power which it has stored up is liberated, to corrolate metabolism and cure or You Never Can Tell She was sweet, pretty, eyes like saucers With a sparkle that thrilled us.

Thus cod-liver oil may truly be called "bottled sunshine." The Children's Bureau has conducted a rickets demonstration in New Haven for three years. Every mother coming to our clinic is shown how to give her baby cod-liver oil. The following routine is followed: Babies seen before the end of the first month of life are given cod-liver oil of pure cod-liver oil twice a day. During the second month the dose is increased to 1 teaspoonful twice a day. Gradually this dose is again increased so that it amounts to 1½ teaspoonful of cod-liver oil. A successful twice a day at the end of the third or fourth month. It has been found that this amount of cod-liver oil is well tolerated by babies and that it can be successfully given in summer as well as in winter. During the hot summer months cod-liver oil is early morning and 8 night. The bottle of oil should be kept cool. "Syndicated to this newspaper by the Children's Bureau, U. S.

The meeting, which was presided over by Dr. Ernest Lyon, the pastor was called in interest of the hospital movement inaugurated under a commission appointed recently Mayor Jackson to work towards a 10,000,000 bond iss. e for this pur- In a statement made by Dr. H. S. Metcald, a member of the Mayor's Commission, it was shown that there are 4630 beds for white patients in Baltimore hospitals wherein there are but 249 for colored, there should at least be 660 he said, while State Attorney Milton Afteld were Drs. Win. H. Wright, Coleman, thenadon White, Louis Setlin, and the Rev. Albert J.

Mayor's Letter In his address Attorney Afteld called attention to a statement made recently by Marse Calwayb in which the Governor vetoed a bill that would cap capital of to obstruct this cause. That measure, he said, which was introduced in the legislature by Senator Levin and tacked on the Omnibus Appropriation Bill was killed in a factional right between the Governor opposing senator and it at time received serious consideration of power. In the present movement, he said, we have the active support of administration leaders, and called attention to the fact that Frank Furst and others had publicly assured their support. In closing his address, he read the following letter from Mayor Howard W. Jackson: Mr. E. Milton Alfond, State's Attorney's Office, Baltimore, Md. I note with interest in the press that there is to be a mass meeting of citizens to discuss the need of hospital facilities for the colored people of Baltimore at, Ames M. E. Church Tuesday evening. The high standing and integrity of the commission I recently met in an indication of the fact that the problem will be solved surely, swiftly 'and' successfully. The question of a colored municipal hospital, staffed by colored physicians, together with a school for colored nurses, is a vital problem. Its realization will be amenable to the white population of this city as the point of contacts between our friendly groups are numerous and varied. Recently I read with astonishing interest the facts regarding hospitalization compiled by the CDC and the charts show the relative death rates of white and colored populations. The so richness of the situation is glaring. BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH Druid Hill Ave., and Lanvafe Sts. 11 A. M.—Sermon by Dr. Stepteau, theme, "CHRIST, THE UNCHANGING FRIEND." 8 P.

In har- se in which we live. an address in part delivered before the joint session of the Baltimore and Washington Baptist Ministers Conference The universe in which humanity dwells and forms an integral part, is an expression of Divine Mind, whose purpose is to establish a social relationship amongst the creatures of His Workmanship. It is impossible for the civilized nations, who imbibe in them the Christ Christ, to contact with the different kingdoms, known to develop mind. Examine an ordinary bar of iron or steel thru a very powerful microscope and you will see the molecules arranged promiscuously. The magnetic circuits are satisfied internally and there is no resulting external magnetism; but bring that same bar of steel in a magnet to the same angle, they will re-arrange themselves according to the law of attraction, they will turn on their axis and assume positions more nearly in a straight line with their north ends pointing the same way. The closed magnetic circuits are thus broken up and external magnetism made evident. The magnetic body exerts a subtle power over every particle that is made up of the same vibratory atoms and a peculiar attractive force is manifested to hold them together in the same magnetic field. So it is with a human being whose mind is charged with the magnetic power of the Christ Spirit. No one can see the change of the atom or molecule of his heart cells, but the magnetic power polarizes the electron of the Soul, charges it with a dynamic power so that every faculty of the one becomes electro magnetic in such a way as to draw centripetally every other soul that has the attitude of the Christ in one An individual who is selfish, self-centered, proud, narrow and ungenerated, feels better in the seclusion of life, but when the Christ Spirit magnetizes his mind transforms his ideas h ecomes a magnet and thus draws others to him. Love must be the basis of our social gatherings, not more sentiments than others, let say. A man who does not love to associate with his fellow man cannot be successful in the education and development of the race. He must fail as as leader. The mind of man is very sensitive, surroundings act upon it as the outside world acts upon the plate of a camera. The conscious mind absorbs the thoughts and ideas of its environments. It is susceptible to the influence thrown by others word and act must be colored with the Christian spirit which will pregnant the mind of those who come in contact with us, as representatives of the Kingdom of God. Social Christianity in the New Era is the essence of Divine love manifesting thru the conscious mind of humanity in harmony with the progressiveness of the age in which we live.

Says Bishop Gregg Made the Right Decision in Declining Howard University Presidency To the Editor: No one questions the judgment of the committee that recommended and the Howard trustee board that by unanimous vote selected Bishop Gregg for a position of such great issues so far reaching and vital were at stake. In the minds of all Bishop Gregg was regarded as "FIT" for the task but all came to realize that John Andrew Gregg was already in charge of the service of the most sacred character. All noble minds realized that no good and great soul would be seduced by any considerations below the level of the man. No MAN. All waited to see the soul quality of the man. Gregg. Bishop Gregg made his decision, he made it from his own soul. Soon he will enter upon a journey of ten thousand miles to reside in the region regions in Africa. He will sleep in their rude huts, he will preach to eager multitudes seated upon the ground and will lowering ofools and missions and plant hope in human hearts and point the way to more abundant life. He will do his duty as he sees it, as his soul feels it and when he is completed, God willing, he will return to America.

Campbell, Demonstration garden at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, has attracted state wide attention in Alabama. With the isolation of the Negro farmhouse and plantations, out of touch with modern conditions, or the means of practising modern methods, they were tremendously displeased. The Booker T. Washington School on wheels was provided by popular suburbanites, their friends throughout the state contributing the money to buy the motor truck and its equipment. The contribution was made in the possession of the belief of the contributors in this method of teaching better farming and home making and that it is a memorial is strikingly evidenced by a tablet which is mounted on the walls of the movable school and which "This truck with its equipment was donated to the Federal and State Agricultural Extension Service by the State University of the state of Alabama, in appreciation of Tuskegee Institute and in memory of Booker T. Washington who helped to manage the region of Mississippi which was the country and people and THE GREAT BIG GUT-OP-DOORS." The truck is equipped with a complete stock of farm implements and of certain equipment that the farmer could build, or which would be inexpensive to buy. An electric light plant, a photograph and a complete motion picture unit are also a part of the Three trained workers go with the truck. One of those is a man who demonstrates the techniques and teaches improved methods of farming, the proper care of field and garden crops, the effective territoring of the land and intelligent care of crops, the harvesting fruit trees and the like. Another is a woman who teaches to the assembled farm wives methods of construction of clothing; how to make and use a fireless cooker; how to preserve eggs for home use; how to candle eggs for hatching and how to care for the baby The good which is being accomplished by this movable classroom, its achievements can be found in countless sections of Alabama.

This is developing the group or community that meets each satisfaction to the pupils, and of course does a great deal of good.

Although the Drud Laundry is 24 years old, its greatest strides have been made during the last twelve years of the establishment of the department of Wallace Lanser, who took charge in 1913. At that time it employed 11 men and women. Now there are 30 on the payroll. Equipment Modern With the growing volume of work the management of the laundry has been compelled to install the most modern machinery now used in the business. It is equipped to do every kind of work from the course of its most filmmy material done by hand. Not only will the visitor find the machinery modern, but advanced ideas in system and the utilization of it will be found in the furniture, the soiled clothes are first assorted into lots. Mr. Lansey says this is the most important step in the training of the scientific knowledge of fabrics and scientific kinds of material must be washed together while the inclusion of one single piece in the collection is sometimes cause serious money loss.

Mich.—Ten thousand dollars has been appropriated thru Mayor John W. Smith and the Detroit Community Fund for an intensive survey of the Negro population of Detroit for the purpose of developing a program for bettering relations between the white and coloured races in Detroit, which have become somewhat strained as result of the Sweet case. The survey was begun this week under the auspices of Mayor Smith's Inter-racial Comission, which Reinhold Nebleur chairman. Forrester B. Washington, of the Armstrong Association of Philadelphia, and Professor Robert T. Lansing, of the University of Michigan, are directors of the survey. These two men are assisted by a 'a staff of five assistant directors, who are experts in the field of race relations. Three of these assistants are instructors at the University of Wisconsin, and the other two men have obtained degrees in the social sciences and the University of Michigan. The survey directors have the cooperation of the more important public and private social agencies in the area, and the fact social agencies in touch with much data already gathered by various city departments. The fact finding portion of the survey will be presented with the Detroit Bureau of Governmental Research. Professor Lansdale and Mr. Washington will make a fact report, without recommendation, to the Commission. Any recommendations to the Mayor and to the public, which may come out of the survey, will be presented by the Commission. The commission is functioning through four sub-compittees, who will co-operate with the directors of the survey, in objection to the Commission. These committees are follows: Finance and Business, Chairman, Fred M. Butzel, formerly vice-president of the Board of Commerce, Fred M.

A permanent roadside market stand cost $3,000 to operate and had to be built in a small temporary stand costs $439 to operate and has gross sales amounting to $4,000. A permanent roadside market should be located on an improved highway. It should never be located on a highway that is being driven between the top and bottom of a hill. The motorist generally likes to take a hill at high speed and is not likely to stop his automobile on the side of the road. He should drive slowly and drive driveway so that he can drive off the main road. It is preferable to locate a stand at the top of a hill rather than at the bottom. The bulletin also recommends neatness of arrangement of products and quantity of advertising signs placed far enough away on such side of the stand so that the motorist can see it in plenty of time enough to come to a halt. priated For survey Of Detroit Sequel To Sweet Case! 5000 Quit Dixie; On Way North BIRMINGHAM, ALA—Thousands of families are packing up their belongings and leaving the farms of these families.

There was a strange blonde woman two positions off prone on the patrol wagon in the 1300 block N. Glimor street. But as the officers rode, a straw hat in the middle of the street attracted their attention. This in itself would not have created any suspicion had not a coat been seen in close proximity.

They were dollars to keep, said the wife, and "I put it in my trunk and he went up and took a hatchet and broke the trunk open." How did all these things get out of the window? All these things are what she tore off of me, said the husband, "I lilt the lamp to go to bed and she threw the lamp out of the window. She started all this disturbance.

Possibly we will have a BLACK FACE, has the impact by a white face. Newspaper advertisement has become so valuable and essential to the success of the manufacturer and retailer, until it is impossible for a business to succeed in this day and time that does not buy space in Newspapers and broadcast what is being manufactured for Go into any large city in America, and you find hundreds of empty store rooms and enumerable placards, telling you at just what time the "Auction sale is coming off" and where the town, where thousands of pedestrians pass day and night. The same is true in the manufacturers district. The obvious reason for this state of affairs is that in most cases the occupants of the empty buildings did not believe in Newspaper Advertisements. The sequence is they were forced into bankruptcy and were forced to go out of business because they failed to attract prospective buyers to their stores through the game of adversary. Submit the account of the merchant who does not believe in Newspaper Advertisements, and you will hear these four obsolete arguments that fact that the Newspaper column is the most direct way to convince a buyer it matters not what the prospective contemplates buying. "I do direct mail advertising. I send out ten thousand letters monthly." The man who makes the statement immediately thrown into the trash pile, and that his effort to reach or make a customer has been in vain, and that the Newspaper is paid for and is scanned carefully and diligently especially by women. "And if the prospect will come he can buy the same goods for less money." How will the prospect know this unless it is broadcast in the newspapers. The newspaper group who believes in hand bill circulars that feels that every home in the neighborhood can be reached thru this method. It is easy to find the good dollars spent by this group so convince the hand bill program until it is useless to try and convince them. Finally the inevitable set by the scientific method of advertising forces them into bankruptcy. Last but not least is the group which demands that their money would be spent in litigation. The argument of this group is so filled with error that even a school system would be unable to recover all of the prospects In its territory, and none ever will. Prejudice costs merchants of this country thousands of dollars. We suggest that the merchant buy space in the papers which go into the home. Possibly we will have less failures.

Unless you have "one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel," then it isn't too late to start Buying A Home Simply because you have put off buying a house year after year until you have begun to feel that it's too late now, that it's no reason why you should not make the start. Even if you do not feel that you will be able to finish paying for it—make the start anyway, and you'll find that your ambition to complete the payments on it will add years to your life and you will still have many years left in which to enjoy the feeling of "owning a home of your own."

Auburn Cemetery Wednesday. A brief ceremony conducted by the Rev. J. W. McCoy, pastor of Penna, Avenue A. M. E. Zion church accompanied by a song by members of John Wesley, E. church choir, in the interesting establishment of Samuel W. Chase marked the closing event of the tragedy which may end finally for four persons. Police advised there be no big public service. Lee was a member of John Wesley church and the funeral would have been conducted by the pastor but for his absence from the city. Victim Still Lives Officer Thomas Dilton of the Northwestern police district and Arthur Redding, victims of the unrest in Chicago, linger in the balance, are said to have a fighting chance for their lives. Others shot are said to be out of danger. Residents of the dead man still contain that Lee committed his act white under the delusion that he was going to be beaten up by the police after several occasions, had a grudge against him. This feeling grew out of a former case when officers took him to the hospital following a near-fatal crash, he said, they struck him over the head with their sticks. Start Fund A fund for the children of the dead man was started Sunday when Bethel A. M. B. Church raised $50,000 to help the family sufficient to pay a year's rent. Those interested in this fund are asking the public to contribute. Money may be sent to the AFRO-AMERICAN N.Y.C. to the officials of Bethel Church. While the family has made no appeal for the loss of Leo, they are in urgent need of care. They are at present in the home of his aged mother and are in need of a nurse. Bessie Lee, wife of the dead man has been separated for some time his mother says. The children are Calvin, age 2 and Earle, age 3. PRINCIPAL GRIGGS LEAVES Wm. T.

No Fun About Trotter's Pilgrimage To Capital Afro's Funny Man Goes to White House With Delegation But Only Finds One Joke By RALPH MATTHEWS W. Monroe Trotter made another pilgrimage to the Capital. When the announcement ennae that President Coolidge would receive his delegation it was taken more or less as a joke. "What is old Dr Trotter doing now?" several were heard to ask. When it fell my lot to accompany this delegation I thought it quite a lark. I went there looking for humorous situations, I saw many but so convinced was I of the man's sincerity in his purpose that I will not enumerate them. Then Trotter asked President Coolidge to adulish all segregation in federal buildings and discrimination against colored federal employees, he didn't do it for the sake of publicity. Trotter was not playing at the White House. The delegation was already assembled in an ante room when he set for them the President's room. Trotter was not Lost in auto traffic around the White House, he came in nearly ten minutes late and was in for a scorching reproach by other members. "Why, said Trouter when they had finished, the president is Republican. The Negro has had 50 years of something to party on, something for him, it won't hurt the president to wait a few minutes on the Negro. The president announcer again asked if all were present and when assured they were he ushered the party down the corridor to the president's office, past a line waiting, men, women and children, who thought it disgusting that a group of "Niggers" get to see the chief executive before did, and expressed it in no mild matter." "Did I Put It Over?" "We ask this only as a fair return for 150 years of loyalty," said Trouter after he had emptied containing nine 2000-pound bills of the president's desk signed by Negroes from every section of the country. The gathering of those signatures was no little undertak After he had finished his speech, laid his grievance before Mr. Coolidge, asked him to meet the bishop, who described, the liturgy found itself again in the ante room, just 12 minutes later. "Did I put it over?" asked Trutter, and his expression was almost wistful. But what did he accomplish? I asked myself as I hurried from the White House to my room, an eccentric man who has spent much money gathering signatures to this petition. Presents it to the President who gives him no definite answer as to what he will do. Does not promise to consult the heads of departments to ascertain what means would be to rob the president of money to regenerate for which they are partly responsible. Does not promise to issue a declaration declaring a new birth of freedom and fair play to the honor of independence, "we are trying." If Trotter did no more than let the President know that the Negro is not him, no more than remind him that black men consider themselves just as much a part of these United States as white men; he him see that there are still men in the race with backbone enough to tell him that we are not satisfied with existing conditions, his vision was, asleep, his vision was, as success. A mouse grazing at the foundation can cause a building to crumble. Men of outrage and conviction, such as Tratter, he continually knocks may eventually break down the wall or prejudice.

Gillespie had been attituded to perform band, John B. Gillespie, of Sparrows Point, on which grounds he was granted an absolute decree, the wife surprised her friends when she diced an appeal Friday asking permanent alimony. Papers to the effect were served on Gillespie and his attorney, Roy S. Bond, who in 1922 acquired the divorce of his wife, who was 92 years old, contested trial in open court. According to testimony developed at the trial Gillespie is said to have returned home unexpectedly on the day of his trial and his home locked from the inside. His suspicions aroused he went in through a window and made his door locked. He forced his door locked he forced it open, finding a young man and his wife clad only in their night clothes.

TWO CHARGED WITH RAPE ARE ACQUITTED Youth Claims Girl Framed Him To Square Self With Lover; Is Freed Declaring that he had been framed by Thelma Hall, 1459 N. Strickler street, who accused him of a serious offense to square himself, recently returned, William Holland, 1449 Laurens street, was acquitted after a hearing in the Northwestern Police Station on Friday. The girl, who gave her age as 17, declared that she was passing along the street on June 14, when she reached the dyeing and cleaning establishment of Page Johnson, Holland, who is employed, she dragged her into the shop and assaulted her. U.S. Attorney Benjamin J. Stewart Jr. and attorney J. Stewart Davis, she was unable to explain why her screams were not heard although the street was busy throughout and the alleged assault took place in broad daylight. Holland stated that he had been going with the young woman during the absence and hear of her regular, who injured and healed her of the fury. It was then that she framed the story of assault, he declared. He was dismissed. He cursed Uncle Robert Ames. 725 George street was also acquitted of similar charges prefered by Lillian Whitaker, age 61, by Mr. McKinley to the girl. Ames is her uncle, and lived in the same house with her and her mother at the time of the assault. Because she could not tell her she had kept the affair to herself for more than six months without anyone, the case was also dismissed. Ames is a married man and his wife, sister of the girl's mother, was in court at the time of the hearing. Ames was also defended by Attorney Davis.
