The collapse came just as the most ardent supporters of organized baseball were breathlessly awaiting the announcement of the league schedule and after the rap caused by the withdrawal of the Hamburg Giants, Brooklyn Royal Giants and Hilldale appeared to be bridged.

C. — By order of Secretary Herbert Work, segregation of Interior Department workers because of race ended April 13th. Last week Secretary Herbert Hoover abolished fijm crow in the Department of Commerce and Secretary Andrew Mollon, the Treasury, is expected to take similar steps. Conditions in their federal departments will now go back to what existed before the administration of President Wilson, a Democratic subordinates of Mr. Wilson were the first to issue segregation edicts, which separated workers of different races that had been working in the same room, and in many cases, at adjoining desks for 25 years. Work's Order In accordance with the order of Secretary Work, Miss Gretta D. McRae, a colored stenographer in a Jim crow" division of the Land Office, transferred her geographic division. She was later transferred to the survey division and is doing stenographic work for any employee of that division who needs the services of a stenographer.

The Secretary of Commerce, Blease, said he was working with his campaign managers and assistants in other departments. For eight years, he stated, the conditions under which they were working were not disturbed. After Mr. Hoover became president, he abolished segregation in the census bureau.

"I was born in the South," he said, "in Jacksonville, Fla., and when I was born my mother was too sick to nurse me. On the corne of my face there lived a southern white family and not 'poor white trash' in which a girl baby was born a few days before. The white mother nursed me during the whole period on my own mother's inability to do it. "Between my white mammy and me existed a tender relationship; thru which I grew and had left the South, I never, up to the time of her death, went back to my old home without paying her a visit and taking her a small The Best Families Mr. Johnson's article in the "American Mercury" is entitled, "A Negro woman's role in the civil war: an eradication effort, he declares, is made to create the belief that the intimacy between the races 'oes on only with the woman,' Mr. Johnson says he has known colored people who claim descent on the white side from those whose ancestors were brightest on the southern honor roll." Mixed blood flourished always around the "big house," he says. On social equality, he says, some timid whites fear culture on the part of the Negro as a threat of social conflict. "What is the truth about this thing termed social equality?" The truth seems to me to be that it is some kind of social problem, a problem more concerned about than colored. "As I go around the country in my capacity as a public speaker, I am continually being asked about social equality by white people out very rarely do I hear it mentioned among Negroes. Gaiety "The idea that cultured colored people spend a major portion of their time moping around and waiting for a chance to speak to people of color is seriously held by a great many white Americans, but it is sure to get a laugh in any SAYS DOCTOR IS DAD OF LOVE CHILD NEW YORK. — Dr. C.

RAY Hubby Cannot Recover $30,000 He Gave Her When They Wed ALIMONY TO $75,000 "WIDOW" CONTINUES EASTON, P A. — Nora Holt Ray has won again. In a decision, 21 pages in length which "will go far in clarifying some complicated decisions regulating marriage over own marriage in Pennsylvania," the Appeals Court of Northampton County decided against Joseph L. Ray wealthy-secretary to Charles M. Woolley to M. Woolley using Mrs. Ray for annulment and recovery of $30,000 worth of real estate which he had given her upon marriage. A divorce brings at least temporarily, to a close, the long divorce litigation and sensations involved in the marital troubles of the titian-haired beauty and her wealthy husband, who died soon after their wedding in 1923. Charged Bigamy Ray, through his exclusive white Bethlehem Steel Company attorneys alleged that Mrs. Ray had married the wife of Bruce Jones, whom she married in Canada and divorced in Illinois. Ray contended that she was not properly divorced and was therefore a bigamist. At this trial, which came up last June in the lower court, Mrs. Ray was represented by Raymond Pace Alexander and Maceo W. Hubbard, prominent race attorneys of Phila-ton, the wife in the lower court and Ray took the case to the Court of Appeals. Apartment Raided When shortly after the brilliant wedding the couple left the Ray mansion in Bethlehem, nothing unusual was thought of the fact that the couple had been married there, while Ray left with Mr. Schwab for California. But when gossip connected the name of Mrs. Ray with William S. Lawn, up until the law firm of Thomas B. D. DePeyt, with offices at 2303 Seventh avenue, the husband employed detectives with the result that at 4:00 o'clock one winter morning in 1925, the law firm of Thomas B. D. DePeyt Ray was found asleep there. He immediately began divorce action in Pennsylvania. In this first skirmish, Mrs. Ray with a sizable almamy. Ray appealed to the Superior Court and again lost after the case had hung fire one year. Mrs. Ray then left for Paris where she engagedements in French cabarats for one year and returned to the "States." Said She Proposed In the highly sensational testimony in the lower court at Easton, Pa., she was accused of her wealthy husband, Roy testified that his wife proposed to him. This Mrs. Roy denied on the stand during the hearing on the ashes train to which the Schwab private car was attached Ray came back and discussed marriage with her. He sent her a ring, and by parcel post from Bethlehem. Fourth Marriage It also developed during the trial that the present marriage was Mrs. Ray's fourth matrimonial venture in the city, and she married her second, Bruce K. Jones. She was then married to George Holt, a wealthy cabaret owner of Chicago and a philanthropist, with $100,000 worth of real estate and jewelry. He died and it was after this that she married Ray. The $30,000 for which Ray was suited in the agreement that each of the pair would make joint deeds to their property. Mrs. Ray stated on the stand that she made no such promi- Married 8 Times Ray and Mrs. Ray have each been married to each other. They are still married to each other. A. and T.

NEW MEETING PLACE "Likker" Loving Americans Blamed For New Attitude There NEW YORK, N. Y.—The Executive Committee of the Association of General Secretaries of the Y. M. C. A.s of North America has just announced the change of the place of meeting of its biennial convention from the Prince Edward Hotel of Toronto, Canada, to Pocono Manor, Pa., on account of the proposed drawing of the race line by the Toronto hotel. --- As soon as the Committee found out that the Prince Edward Hotel was averse to offending equal accommodation colored secretaries, Channing H.

C. — In the suit to the suit of his wife, Mrs. Daisy J. Terrell, for an annulment of their marriage, Arthur O. Terrell declares that their marital relations ended when he learned that she had been the mother of an illegitimate child. He denies that she left him because she found out that he had another wife from whom he had not been divorced. After their marriage, he says, the sister of wife No. 2, told him that she had given birth to an illegitimate predecessor. This boy died about 6 months after his birth, he states. He was named Theodore Patterson, his father being George Patterson, he alleges in his answer. When he confronted his wife with this information, he states, she admitted its truth. Look Wife No. 2.10 Wife No. 1. She says, was long before her election. She was 22.1928 she had knowledge that he had another living wife. She was first told about wife No. 1. he states, two weeks after their marriage by Mabele Lee. In the spring of 1924, he says, he took wife No. 2 to see wife No. 1. He admits that he married Essie M. Brown in the District of Columbia in 1924. Six months after his first marriage, he states, he discovered that Mrs. Essie Brown Terrell had women he had married whom him was been divorced. Because of this condition, he says, he assumed that he had the right to remarry without the formality of securing a divorce. Mr. Terrell is represented by Ar- mond W. Scott.

I may get over it, but I'll never look the same for I've actually added pounds of adipose tissue in a most conspicuous place — my face! That's what I get for eating all these delicate funnel-shaped dinners and late suppers. A group of us young things are planning to throw those hand-springs and flip-flops I told you to hope to do our running togs soon and do a round or two up by the reservoir, so as to get back our slender figures. We must keep fit at any price. The schools are again going full blast, and teachers and students alike are exerting themselves to put in the effort of the school's efforts. There more parties crowded into last week to hold us all till next fall. Estelle Mayer entertained the Ente Neous Bridge Club at her home last Tuesday evening, when 24 ladies put their thinking caps on. This club plays according to the latest authority, and it makes one grow up to the level of the game. All you need to do is to make one dumb play — and oh! the look from your partner. Everyone enjoyed the evening and especially the chicken salad and strawberry short cake. The wives were Williamson, Edna Gray and Elfreda Taylor. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell entertained about 20 guests. Friday evening, Bridge, as usual, was the game, "Lady Molly," as her friends affectionately call her. Her enjoyment of a good meal was evident, as she entertains she spares no pains that her guests may merrily romp around the card tables, and "pass" or "double" to suit their fancy. The ladies forgot about dining when the super was seated. She bought a Boston Johnson Emma Wormley, Minnie Johnson and Josephine Bailey won the prizes. Orra Weaver Spivey invited friends to her apartment on Iowa Circle last Friday evening, when a most enjoyable time was spent playing Bridge. All kinds of beautiful and useful girls spent their time in the spring outfit, including silk umbrellas. Mrs. Kelly Miller entertained 24 ladies at Bridge Saturday evening. Everyone was very intent on the game until the tartalizing aroma of loasted cheese straws wafted in from the kitchen, and the ladies could concentrate on the game. It isn't necessary to tell you that after all that tasting, the collation was more than enjoyed. Mrs. Miller was ably assisted by her daughters, Mae and Daniel, who were also ladies. Lydia Williams, Lillian Davis, Josephine Bailey, Emma Baudtion, Martin Crusoe and Daly Reed won the prizes. There were many more parties. I'm sure, but goodness! there is always more of everything — some just as good, some better, but enough it was. — oh why did I start that anchors? Frat Basket Ball The championship game of the series was played last Saturday afternoon at the Lincoln Colonnade, when Kappa met alpha AND defeat. Excitement usually runs high at these games — last week there was a hold-up, and this week TIGHT — to end the fight. The fight was the thing! Simpson and Tyson started upper-cutting so quickly that I could not get heads or tails of the cause or the boys. Everybody was on the floor in a jiffy — the combatants were separated and then were retired! The game proceeded haphazardly. The spells finis for basketball, the boys are going to put their little black B. V. D's away, and are now dusting off the moth-eaten baseball outfits. There have been three or four baseball skirtnises so far, but nothing to get excited about. Our college team from New Haven, and trounced them good, I heard. I failed to see that. Some Dance Marion Robinson invited about 80 young folks to her home last Thursday evening to tip the light fantastic toe. Marion has a beautiful home, and a bid from her is always accepted and a good time assured. Last Thursday was no exception. The plush dress she wore were waltzes, two steps, teddies, bumpings, and a little black bottom. Johnny Macklin trilled like a mocking bird (he really has a fine voice). Dr. Howell's first name is Gay, and it's no misnomer. — he was one gay bird, and forever lung on to his bottle of pop. Dr. Marcus Wheatland has just plenty of good time, but he doesn't want to out for him. The ever-loving Ira Davis is some cracker-eater. Wonder where he bought those dozen boxes of saltines? Why is it that "Blondy" Newman always stays in the kitchen at these parties? I could not see who the littel girl was whom "Bquawk" Hermon was squawking over. There were two well known strong men who "balance and weigh" to the party. Refreshments were served all evening and dancing was indulged in until the wee sma' hours. Then some of the guests meandered to the cabana, where they enjoyed land flings and blew kisses until almost dawn. And so to bed! Omega Prom The Omega Psi Phi Frat gave their spring Prom at the Lincoln Colonade on Friday the 13th. I feel like using the much hackneyed phrase "words are inadequate". The canopy at the new Colonade entrance gave the affair a swank tone and after visiting the ground tunnel, you found yourself in a veritable fairyland — there were gardens abounding with cherry blossoms, shady lanes and nooks. A fountain was playing in the center of the hall, and above it was a huge garden with a variety of var. colored tiny mirrors, throwing thousands of little lights all over the dance hall. The girls were a joy to behold—and all seemed to be pretty, slender, young and tender! Ah! the dresses, delicate perfumes, and sweet strains of the orchestra. The whoeven evening dresses did the work. With the "duty dances" were pleasurable, for there were no scarecrows there. There is no doubt that the Invitations Committee must have been composed of a stern board of censors, for this was the most uniform舞 as to quality that has been given for many weeks in Washington!

COLES DETROIT, MICH. — Henry Ford, probably employs more Negroes than all big business combined, so said Chandler Owen, in a speech at the Sunday afternoon forum of the Elizabeth Street branch of the Y. M. C. A. Sunday, April 13th. Mr. Owen's subject was "How to get Rid of Unemployment." An appreciative audience was present to hear the noted speaker and cheered him in earnestly. He answered the subject at least most vital to his people. He said that employment in America was alarmingly low and that in Detroit one man out every three was out of work. while business last year prospered in an unprecedented manner. The cause for this condition, stated the speaker was the large amount of foreign labor that is coming into America annually. Mr. Owen's remedies for unemployment are: that the flow of foreign immigration should be stopped and the Mexicans, who are now competing with Negro labor. And that every city open up its public works at once, and hire all men possible even if a short working hour is necessary, number of men working at a short day is more desirable than a few with long hours," said the speaker. He claimed also that this would pay the city in decreased crime. The speaker explained that while white workers are necessary and should be encouraged, that it was no solution for unemployment. He further stated that chain stores had made it extremely difficult for the small Negro business to operate Monday night to a large group at the Detroit City College.

HOME BROKEN BY OTHER WOMAN HOME BROKEN BY OTHER WOMAN With Wife In Court He Tells Magistrate Of Four Year Relations HER LOVE CHANGED He Wanted Furniture Back When Her Love Grew Cold When Mrs. Mabel Williams, 1733 Druid Hill avenue, permitte her affections to change from a big hand and man of Pennsylvania avenue to a big coffin and crepe man of Druid Hill avenue, trouble ensued and she was summoned to account in the Northwestern, Friday. According to John Wesley, 1314 Pennsylvania avenue, who operates a second-hand furniture establishment at the above address. Mrs. Wiliams of Pennsylvania himself is the amount of furniture for which he had trusted her and payment was now overdue. She refused to make any payments, he declared, and requested that the court make her return the property to him. Broke Up Home When Mrs. Williams' bewitching smile and velvety tongue seemed to win the magistrate to her side, Wesley cast all discretion to the winds and, ignoring the presence of his wife, told the judge that he and Mrs. Williams had been friends for four years and she had broken up his home and had him give her many things including a cuckoo clock, a bridge lamp, a card table, a victoria and rug, "Since she dropped you, she may have a new boy friend," suggested Maristrate Johansen. "That's her boy friend right there," replied Mr. Wesley, pointing to Mrs. Williams' 1735 Hill avenue, an undertaker who was in court. Mrs. Williams was ordered to return the furniture.

"QUIZZ" LETTERS SENT THEM NEARLY MONTH AGO Candidates Stand On 14th, 15th, 19th Amendments Asked By Press CHICAGO, ILL., (A. N. P.)—Five candidates for president have declined to answer a questionnaire sent them by the Associated Negro Press, representing 112 Weekly papers, a month ago. The candidates quizzed were, Herbert Hoover, Senator Charles Curtis (Kans. Rep.), Senator James Watson (Rep. Ind.), Governor Al Smith (Dem. N. Y.), Governor Albert Bitchie (Dem. Md.), and Thomas J. Walsh (Dem. Montana). The questions sent with the letter 1. More than 4,000 Negroes have been lynched by mobs in different states since 1889. The national Congress to protect the lives and property of citizens in accordance with the Federal Constitution? **Regregation** 2. In almost every phase of American life the exception is segregation. through Negroage has been spreading in government bureau and departments in Washington and elsewhere. Are you in favor of that? The agencies have been used to cheat the Negro in the civil service tests for work in government service, solely on account of his color. Would a proper observance of the letter and spirit of the Civil Service laws as they affect citizens of the United States, to a degree unanticipated, shallenew practices could be destroyed? c) Throughout the southern states the Negro is discriminated against in interstate travel, a discrimination which the Southern Commission has power to act. Would you encourage the enforcement of the laws forbidding distinctions now made by the Southern Commission to meet the same squares? d) Negroes in the South suffer greatly from the unequal distribution of jobs, because they are willing to see that such distribution was made more equitable? 3. More than half the Negroes in America, men and women, are cheated of their citizenship through "Negroic identity" the intent of the Porthouse and Pithouse Amendments in conferring citizenship upon the Negro. Would you support action to guarantee full citizenship for the provisions of the Porthouse Amendment in cases where the intent of the Pithouse Amendment was nullified by senators from Virginia deduced the true situation in the South? Are senators from Virginia deduced the true situation in the South? Are Negro women in the South in violation of the Nineeth Amendment? Marriage Laws 4. An enactment made to have the Congress pass a Uniform Marriage Law. Would you sign such a measure if robbed Negro women citizens of protection by forbidding inter-marriage of the Congress members? Appointment to Office 5. In certain branches of the government there is discernible effort to Negro position and representation. a) Would you favor the appointment of Negroes for examination to the military and naval academies? b) Would you encourage the equality of all citizens in the military and naval services? c) Would you appoint a Negro to any position in the government service which you thought he could creditably gill MORE MAMMY group of intelligent Negroes. "When white people get into the social life of cultured Negroes on terms of equality — that is not an entirely easy thing to do — they must be amazed at the degree of spontaneous gaiety indulged in by thesely sorcly oppressed people. Negroes are sometimes ashamed that the latter enjoy themselves but the fact remains that they do enjoy themselves. I have not found among them the hollow pretense of having a good time, which I am sure I have at times detected among white people. There are some whites who suffer a feeling akin to disgust at any demonstration of culture on the part of Negroes. It naturally gives them a feeling of sickness or of rage. It upsets their whole vegetative nervous system. They see it Negro wearing good collar and dutting house, or driving his own automobile they discount the universality of human nature completely and feel that such a Negro is doing a monkey-like imitation of white folk. "When they see a Negro in a hotel or restaurant they feel he is there because he wants to be among white people thinking that he may be just hungry or wanted a place to sleep." Brotherhood Of Man Mr. Johnson says his faith in the coming brotherhood of man would scarcely move an ant hill. The high point of race prejudice he added, is that it encourages the virus of race prejudice into other people. "Suppose a man does need race prejudice to bolster up his own self-esteem and sense of superiority, yet he wants to go around administering his nosirum to those who are getting on very well without it?" Could Improve The South "The professional southerner argues that the anti-Negro prejudice is absolutely necessary for the preservation of southern white civilization — whatever that may be worth — and there is a certain logic in what he says, for, given a fair chance to win, some changes in southern white civilization and would at the same time. I hope, make some improvement. "But what logical reason can the professional southerner give for cruading for anti-Negro prejudice like good Mussulman carrying the faith of Islam by fire and sword to all the world? What is it to him that makes the fight of solitary Negro sitting in a cafe in Paris, or Berlin has him peace of mind until he has put in the very effort to have black men ticked out? "I think he is a fanatic, but I also insist that he is a vulgarian and a bounder." THE APO CARRIES MORE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY."—Eugene Gordon, 1927 Barry.

GARVEY SEAMEN ARE NEARER PAY DAY U. S. Senate Committee Votes Favorably On Claims Of $12,303 Long Overdue WASHINGTON, D. C. — The Senate committee on claims last Monday favorably reported the bill to relieve the relief of certain seamen who are creditors of the defunct Black Star Line, incorporated, for wages totalling $12,303.35. The committee recommended that the bill be amended to confer upon the Court the authority to render judgment in favor of any person or corporation entitled to receive any part of the sum of $21,624.66 belonging to the Black Star Line, which will be paid in the U. S. Treasury by the Shipping Account of a purchase by the Black Star Line of the steamship Orion. The judgment creditors. For whose relief this bill was introduced, were relief the seamen of the ship known as the Kankan, and judgments in the United States district court for the southern district of New York on December 16, 1921. The judge appointed upon their judgment in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia and sought to garnishee the commissioners of the Shipping Board. Their judgment was quashed and the judgment credited were left without a legal remedy. The Black Star Line was organized under the laws of Delaware with the assistance of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. It was dissolved on March 21, 1923 for non-payment of taxes. The late William C. Matthews was appointed by Mr. Garvey to negotiate for the return of the money which the Shipping Board held. The Shipping Board, however, held that the judgment was in default and deposited the money in the United States treasury. JACKSON GETS SIXTH REPRIEVE WASHINGTON, D.

E. General Conference MAY CHANGE BISHOPS New Depts. Of Pension, Evangelism, Welfare Urged CHICAGO, IL. (PNS.) "There will be a hot time in the old town tonight", describes what is expected to occur in Chicago during the General Conference of the A. M. E. General Conference which opens here on May 7. The main interests with which the pyrotechnics will be connected will be laymen membership on the Episcopal Committee and the ops from their present districts and the establishment of new departments. Has been the custom for the Episcopal Committee to be composed of leaders of the Annual Conference delegates, but there will be a determined effort to elect the Episcopal Committee and also to elect laymen to membership on it. This is a part of the effort to strengthen the strong throughout the church connection. With Ira T. Bryant leading this fight for laymen it is expected that it will be a spectacular struggle — one that will be long remembered in the annals of church his The effort to settle by positive law the question of the tenure of bishops on Episcopal districts is expected to be made. If this question comes up, and there are many reasons to believe it will, there will be thunder and lightning and a veritable tempest. Some bishops have served one Call VE rnon 6016 S. S.

Conference Petitioned To Ask Removal Of Time Limit Equal Lay Presentation In Annual and General Conferences Requested By Baltimore Preachers' Meeting district for nearly twenty years. One bishop for seismic epilogue life on the same district. The contention is that the life-time tenure is conducive to building up of district machines and blocs which are detrimental to the work of the church. Some Bishops Favor Move At least three bishops are with the forces for removal of all bishops. The other bishops oppose this plan because they consider the matter more personal than general, and they will oppose the movement because, they claim, it reflects on at least they make this contention. The Baltimore Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church meeting at Metropolitan Church, Washington, was petitioned to instruct its delegates to the general conference of the church meeting in Chicago in May to vote for the removal of the time limit on pastors and for lay representation equal to that of the clergy in the annual and general conferences of the church. Resolutions this week were introduced at the A. M. E. Preachers' Meeting at Bethel Monday morning and passed almost unanimously. Speakers pointed out that al- The supporters of Bishops Jones Hurst and Flipper will resent vigorously what they consider an attack on their bishops and their districts, and in vindication will seek to prevent it, some of whom will distinguish it, some almost certain that all bishops will be changed which is in keeping with the spirit and intentions of the law. To Oppose Salary Increase Laymen, doubtless, will oppose the increase of the salary of the bishop. Those who advocate it contend that the bishop should not graft by giving the bishops sufficient salaries and make it unlawful for a bishop to receive any money whatsoever, outside of his constitutional allowance. Ira T. Bryant counters with the argument that principle ought to be applied in increase in salary. There is a strong probability that this measure will pass and that the bishops will receive $5,000 per annum. Considering all things in connection with increased cost of living etc. this measure should pass. If the bishops' salaries are increased so, also, will those of the general officers. Pension Department There is a strong contention, and this comes from many section, for the establishment of a Department of Pensions (for superannuates); a Department of Evengelheim and a Department of Ancient History, of the editor of A. M. E. Sunday School literature a full-fledged general officer. A general survey of the situation reveals that the laymen will be some of the establishment of new departments and on the increase of salaries, for Dr. John R. Hawkins, the Lord of the A. M. E. Treasury, is expected to be an important仰著, to draw on his department by the war. Dr. Hawkins has a large following among the laymen.

Church meeting at Metropolitan Church, Washington, was petitioned to instruct its delegates to the general conference of the church meeting in Chicago in May to vote for the removal of the time limit on pastors and for lay representation equal to that of the clergy in the annual and general conferences of the church. Resolutions to this effect were introduced by the Second Presachers Mary at Bethel Monday morning and passed almost unanimously. Speakers pointed out, that although discipline of the church permits the pastor to remain at a church over five years, Bishop J. A. Johnson of the Second Presachers Mary that every pastor shall be moved at the expiration of a five year term. Because of the fact that lay representation in the church conferences is only from one-third to one-fourth that of the representation of the clergy, speakers declared that taxation without representation was tyranny. The laymen, they who paid the bills to the church, should have every right to be represented in the said conferences. Essayist The essayist of the day was the Rev. R. E. Ford, who read a paper on "The Synotic Gossels." "Matthew. Mark and Luke," said the Rev. Mr. Ford, based their gossels on a document written previously by some unknown person from time to time by oral tradition. All three men had access to this document, the Rev. Mr. Ford declared, but each wrote his story independently. Matthew's gospel he said, was written by Levi the ox collector, Himalaya's by John Mark, a nephew of Barnabas and an associate of Paul and Silas. The third gospel was written by Luke, said by some to be a physician, a companion of Paul and the writer of the Acts of the Apostles. Himalaya's daughter, Rev George F. Bragg, showed that Matthew's gospel was written for the Jews, Mark's for the Romans, and Luke's for the world at large.

Missi said that his deposition that he heard "many big palver's" and said Boyma, a Vai boy, said in his deposition that he heard "many big palyers" and said that Misiel was often in tears. The child, a Vai boy, said he "heard plenty noise in bath room and small Consul say open door for Missi, she live inside." Mr. Mills is in London. The action is not contested.

Policies SEATTLE, Washington. — An international gathering of university students of all nations held an informal reception for Mr. Pickens at The International House on 11th avenue. There were American whites, several colored Americans, and Japanese, Chinese, Filipinos, Canadians. At this "informal" there was frank talk by the students and by Mr. Pickens concerning Pacific Coast "race problems" and conditions; the segregation of Orientals in the Y. M. C. A., in barbershops, hotels, etc., and the resulting tension. There is more prejudice against Japanese than against Negroes in that part of the country, because the Japanese is more a competitor of the white man in those parts. Mr. Pickens said: "Segregation is the chief evil in the Japanese problem, as it is in the Negro problem in America. Segregation always increases the evil spirit; creates more contempt in the strong and more dislike of the poor; always increase with the increase of segregation. Segregation is no solution of problems, — it is the beginning of problems."

POOR DIET CAUSES HIGH DEATH RATE Pork, Greasy Foods, Cornbread, Peas Constitute Faulty Diet NEGRO RACE STRONGER Dies Faster Says Writer, Because It Eats Wrong NEW YORK, N. Y. — "What most impresses the newcomer to Hoboken (or any urban Negro community) is the amazing frequency of funerals", writes Heba Jannath in the April number of The Messenger. Discussing "Death and Diet" and quoting the statistics on sickness and death among Negroes in comparison to the whites, Miss Jannath points out the singular fact that while "The Negro is constitutionally the superior of the white man having better stable nerves and better metabolism" nevertheless Negroes are dying proportionately faster than white folks and are cursed with more sickness. This, the writer points out is not so much due to congestion or bad sanitation as it is to faulty diet. Greasy Foods If the Negroes he could very shortly reduce his death and sickness rates below that of white citizens, but instead he insists on a diet consisting largely of pork, rolls and all sorts of greasy preparations.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER I would have every mother and every father sacrifice, sacrifice best that can be gotten while it is young, and when it grows up they will be proud of it, and when it grows up they will be sorry to be sorry and go with sorrows to their graves. They will have to make some sacrifice. I would have every mother and every father sacrifice for the child and see that it gets the best that can be given to it. When it grows up they will be proud of it in their old age. Otherwise, they will be sorry and go with sorrows to their graves. They will have to make some sacrifice. HOPE I caught it from a stranger's eye. Which I gave my friend as I passed him by. He with his soul revived, passed on And gave it to a lonely one. Who walked at once in company That only inner eyes can see. He sang it in a song that sped To millions, who were comforted. And millions did repeat the strain Until it came to me again. And I at last the stranger sought And told him what his look had wrought. Mr. Berger's Bill Almost two years to a day since he introduced his anti-lynching measure in the U. S. House of Representatives, Mr. Victor Berger, (Socialist, Wis.) again last week re-introduced his bill. It was referred to the House Judiciary Committee to approve the bill, introduced by Mr. L. C. Dyer, (Rep. Mo.) at the beginning of the session. Some time ago Mr. Dyer wrote the AFRO that the house had passed the Anti-Lynching bill once by a very large majority. He said:—"We can do so again without much difficulty. The trouble has been with the U. S. Senate. When we pass it, the Senate will pass it after passing in the House, a filibuster was put on by a few southern democratic senators, and due to the rules of the Senate, a vote was prevented. "There is no use for the House to pass this bill unless there is some chance that the Senate will do likewise. We therefore, think that we should pass it in the Senate as they do so, we will pass it in the House and send it to the President." If Mr. Dyer and his fellow members of the republican majority party declare themselves unable to put thru an anti-lynching measure, what seems to be the idea behind Mr. Berger's bid. The answer is the same idea that is behind other measures which Mr. Berger sponsors. He has introduced bills authorizing the President to take hold of and operate the soft coal mines; to repeal the espionage act; to enforce the first amendment; to combat illiteracy, to acquire telegraph and telephone lines for government ownership and operation; to establish a national bureau of unemployment insurance, and to provide for old age pensions. Capitalistic U. S. A. is not far enough advanced to comprehend the program of Mr. Berger, the socialist. Not a single one of Mr. Berger's bills is likely to pass this year or next. That does not stop him from introducing and advocating them. Agitation to end slavery lasted for nearly two centuries before it was accomplished vocates for a woman as a congressional candidate before they were rewarded. Reforms require long and ceaseless agitation. Mr. Berger knows this and keeps his shoulders to the wheel. "Sniping" At Porters The long fight of the Pullman Porters to effect a strong union, to secure an increase of wages and the abolishment of tips is the kind of a fight any unorganized group must wage when the employer is a million dollar corporation backed by big business. No one even among those who support the Pullman Porters should not receive adequate pay, and that they should not do away with the humiliating tip system. Nevertheless, the rich Pullman Company has succeeded in throwing many obstacles in the way, in some instances employing prominent eloquent persons for this work. Mr. Perry Riley, a special assistant U. Army General, was retained as special counsel by the Pullman Company at a salary of $5,000 to defeat the porters' efforts to secure better wages and improved working conditions for the union. "Snipers" harried the union when it was organized two years ago, effecting dismissal of all men as soon as discovered, and flooding selected newspapers with anti-union propaganda. The latest bit of "sniping" takes the form of a proposal by a Pittsburgh paper that Mr. Philip Randolph, organizer of the Porters union, should resign because he is a socialist and a radical, and American capital will not support his socialists. This of course is argumentum ad hominem instead of argumentum ad rem, but it goes over with those who do not think clearly, and therefore serves to distract attention temporarily from the main matter at issue. With Mr. Randolph our responsible to possess the movement will disappear. He is an able leader. In two years he has focused the attention of the entire country upon the porters' case, promoting his organization with rare intelligence, determination and without bitterness. One way to kill a movement is to kill the company. It is an ancient method, but the Pullman Company seems not adverse to giving it trial. The long fight of the Pullman Porters to effect a strong union, to secure an increase of wages and the abolishment of tips is the kind of a light any unorganized group must wage when the employer is a million dollar corporation backed by business. Even among those who support the Pullman Company will say that the porters should not receive adequate pay, and that they should not do away with the humiliating tip system. Nevertheless, the rich Pullman Company has succeeded in throwing many obstacles in the way, in some instances employing prominent colony workers for this work. M. Perry W. Howard, special assistant U. S. Attorney General, was retained as special counsel by the Pullman Company at a salary of $5,000 to defeat the porters' efforts to secure better wages and improved working conditions through the union when it was organized two years ago, effecting dismissal of all union men as soon as discovered, and flooding selected newspapers with anti-union propaganda. The latest bit of "sniping" takes the form of a proposal by a Pittsburgh paper that in A. P. Philip Randolph, organizer of the Pullman Company, the he is a socialist and a radical, and "American capital will not negotiate with socialists." This of course is argumentum ad hominem instead of argumentum ad rem, but it goes over big with those who do not but clearly, and from the main matter attention temporarily from the main matter at issue. With Mr. Randolph out, it - reasonable to suppose that the union movement will disappear. He is an able leader. In two years he has focused the attention of the entire company, poised to cause intelligence determination and without bitterness. One way to kill a movement is to kill the leader. It is an ancient method, but the Pullman Company seems not adverse to giving it a trumpet. "The sinners" are after Mr. Randolph.

To the Editor: Our friend Mr. Blair is evidently at the present Atheism, he may term it Deism, but I think that he will get over it in time. I myself have read Tom Paine, and also the arguments of Ingersoll. But I don't think that either of them saw it. Paine wrote a brilliant argument, and none can very well dispute his contents on the subject. But I fail to see where it affects the inspiration of the Bible. It intensely human book. It glaringly displays all our good points and frailties. As to it's being a counterpart of God, I think that it all depends upon the interpreters. As long as reading and his interpretations are generally the same. Yes, brother Blair, God is a bigot a profligate, he is cruel and unjust. He is a just God an amitable power, and a gentle force. It all depends on him as receiving his benevolences, or his punishments. In the late political and economic upheaval between the North and South, a northern lady saw God in a vineyard, where the grapes of Atheism were receiving southern neighbors saw it in a different light. It has been recent since they gave us a new rifle, some had tack and a New Testament, and some had a Bible. I have been a main. They said that God was on our side, and so did the Huns. But the ants and roaches were giving a reception at tre time and possibly God was there. But taking it for all in all does this affect the beauty and the logic of the arguments of Job and his friends, or the philosophical outlook of Moses and hisenchment; the pariah ego of Moses and hisenchment; the imbibition of the poetry of a David, or the imbibition of a Solomon. I would place God in the regional scope of the Bible, and since we are so recent in this region, I can very easily discern Mr. Blair's perplexities. But I ask you brother Blair since the sun is coming up, and since the same, I'll ask you, whether the Bible be a masterpiece or a flapper's delight, what of it? 145 Edgecombe Ave., N. Y. When it comes to church building, the colored brother stands second to none. Unfortunate is the fact that the Bible is not value. Now, this other foot-wash Baptist — Mr. N. A. Warman, to be specific — describes the Bible as "sacred and scientific." We see any association of the Bible with science. There is more science in a key of rusty nails than is contained in a book of the manual of baking of Oxide of Iron. This same writer would have us believe that he is opposed to "companionate marriage" evo- vations, and that he is carrying-on for centuries in "companionate marriage" and we are none the worst for wear. A lie is defined as, "A falsehood uttered or set to deceive." The Christian Bible teachers us that God Himself! God Cannot Lie God is not a man, that he should lie. *Num. 23: 10.* It was impossible for God to lie. *Heb. 6: 10.* It was impossible for God to lie. For this cause God shall send them strong solitude, that they should believe a lie. *II. Thr. 2: 11.* Now, therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying in the mouth of all these prophets. *I Kings 22: 33.* And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, the I Lord have deceived that prophet. *Heb. At the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. She shedded man's blood, by man shall his blood be. The Blood-Shedder Must Not Die. Cain rose up against Abel. His brother, and saw him. Cain sat down to him and said to the punishment greater than him to everyone the punishment he shall slave me. And the Lord set a mark upon him, and binding him should kill him. (Gen. 4: 12, 13, 14, 15). Wisdom Encouraged If any of you can believe of God, that giveth to all men religion and upbraid not, and it shall be given him. (James 1: 5). Wisdom Discouraged If any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. (I Cor. 4: 38.) JAS. C. BLAIR, Brooklyn, N. Y.

The Unchristian "Y" The Druid Hill Branch of the Y. M. C. A. is one of Baltimore's difficult problems. A case is defined by the institution's definite questions. Why is the institution's present condition? Who is responsible for it? Is the situation peculiar to Baltimore? Should the Association continue to operate? Should the Association continue to something else that ought to take its place? In these and similar questions is the fact that the one colored branch of the Young Men's Christian Association in Baltimore is not a In 1840 A religious revival took place in a department store in London, 1840, under the leadership of Sir George Williams. He had a burning zeal to correct the evil of moral looseness among men, and to create a crowded busy lonely city. Thirty-seven men were included, one of the owners of the firm. June six, 1844 a small group of men emplaced the church, the Y. M. C. a movement that had had its real beginning in a dingy storage room, where young George went daily for prayer and meditating. The Start In U. S. A. Several years later an American youth, studying at Edinburgh, experienced the power a young man of the London Association; a young man of the United States at Boston; the next year at Washington; and soon at New York. From the early beginning, in America, New York became the first city in the first decade of its American existence the Young Men's Christian Association the great trouble-bearer question of slavery, suffering at times a rupture of the Association. Several years later an American youth, stumbling at Edinburgh, experienced the power of an organization. In 1851 the first Association was established in the United States at Boston; the next year at Washington; and soon at New York. For the early beginning, in America, Negro groups formed. In the first decade of its American existence the Young Men's Christian Association faced openly and fearlessly the great trouble of slavery, suffering at times a rupture of the Association Spiritual Force In its English and American beginnings the association was wholly a spiritual force; the years have witnessed a fearful, compromising prosecution, a growing reliance, based upon a materialism which the movement was organized to direct if not destroy. What we have is a brief simple statement of an organization with a long record of powerfully good deeds. But what has that to do with the failure of the community to recognize the unity and the community's need? There is it least some relation. The William Williams found in London is perfectly reproduced in Baltimore, differing only in being multiplied. In its English and American beginnings the Association was wholly a spiritual force; the Association was a missionary, a missioning approach to the delicate current questions, based upon a materialism which the movement was organized to direct if not destroy. It was a brief simple statement of an organization with a long record of powerfully good deeds. But what has that to do with the failure of the Association to meet its opportunity and the community's need? There is at least some relation. When Williams found in London is perfected which Williams found in Baltimore, differing only in being multilobed. Biggest Village Baltimore has been called, "the country's" or "the world's biggest village." For a Negro户口 it is a most lonely place. There is almost no to go to. And as Sir George Williams wrote, "the most hospitable impure other physically or spiritually-often in both respects. There is little here to exercise or to occupy the mind; a crowded, busy, lonely city; for loneness; bored upon the strong and great passions; for the great joy of life. If London needed the Y. M. C. A., what about colored Baltimore? The constitution of the organized movement of the city is based upon the strong even city to bear a direct relation to the Central Branch in that city. The secretary of the other branch is general secretary of all branches of the city. The broader policies of the branches are different, other largely by form at the Central Association. Secretaries Contributions for the running of the Young men's Christian Association come from the community. The secretary usually assumes the role of a fine agreeable friend, succeeding only when the branches are interested in other matters, his policies. It must be said, however, at often younger men on the staff want to do popular, Christian things, but—dependent on community, and therying to keep good tenement in the city, G. A. can accomplish all its working the spirit of the community. The City Association (generally) has had its own community, and therying to soul. The city of the reformer is too easy and popular, clading the Y. M. C. A. leadership. Baltimore has been called "the country's" or "the world's biggest village." For a Negro youth it is a most lonely place. There is almost no school. Negro Americans experienced, many lodging places, a certain physical or spiritually-often in both respects. There is little here to exercise or to occupy the mind; a crowded, busy, lonely city; a place where people are strong and too great an entitlement for the weak. If London needed the Y. M. C. A. what about colored Baltimore? The constitution of the organized movement obliged the Association of the Association given city to bear a direct relation to the Central Branch in that city. The secretary of the mother branch is general secretary of all branches of the city. The broader policies of the city. The broader largely by forces at the Central Association. Secretaries Contributions for the running of the Young Men's Christian Association come from the community of a fine agreeable fellow, succeeding only when the people are all pleased with his work, his attitude, his policies. It must be said, however, that the community is unpopular, Christian things, but—, dependent upon the community and trying ever to keep on good terms with it, the Y. M. C. A. actually owns all its工作的 the spirit of the community. The city Association (generally) has had its sores healed and has therefore lost its soul. The community is popular, and popular, including the Y. M. C. A. leadership. Unwelcomed Daughter So to improve the spirit between the Central branch and the unwelcomed daughter, the Druid all, it will first be necessary to change relations between whites and blacks throughout the city, some of whom best stores do not cater Negroes. Some Norwegian Negroes are not expected to want to live in the best sections of the city; they cannot attend the Johns Hopkins and the University of Maryland, nor even the best public schools. Norwegian students are to pioneer, its leadership will join with others in calling such persons bad names. The life of the community is reflected in women's Christian Association; how can a Christian Branch be in itself enough to drive out spirit of Williams; "but we must go slowly" the happy cheerful fellows—the secretaries. Board Of Managers There are also other facts that bear a relation to the present plight of the Drudid Hill Association. Of a long list of names on the Board of the Association, many of them, only twelve, listed jointly interested H. W. Langley, P. D. Blackell (produce man), M. W. Saunders (Employant Agency), T. Alex.

O. Reid (Prof. Teacher), Prof. F. Wood (Director Negro Lawyers) The thirty one lawyers of Baltimore except A. B. Koger, chairman the "Y Forum man" no interest in the Association. The sixty resilisers are still worse in that there are more men in the Association than only active in one who took part in the estate. Lawers The thirty one lawyers of Baltimore excepting A. B. Koger, chairman the "Y" Forum man, interest in the association. The sixty physicals interested in the association of them, more young men, yet the only active man is one who took part in the establishment of the Colored Branch. The ministers (a multi-ethnic group) of men of Baltimore do not support the Y. M. G. Yet these are the men who have had the larger contacts; these are the men who have been to the mountain tops; These are the men who have been to the mountains; These are the men to whom the people have looked to move handicaps and give inspiration. Indifference, clannishness, even ignorance of duty, intemperance of interest in common pastimes, and dull the mind and spirit of equipped leaders. The results are reflected in a dead Y. M. G. A. as in other specific and general conditions.

[From Washington Sentinel] We note the action of the National Minister's finance at a closing session week regarding attacks of alleged agonies in the pulpits of the member churches. Undoubtedly, there have been said and done things not altogether up to date, and decorous would fail of being heard but for the use of the churches as auditoriums. Then too, there are many churches, which feel that the true service of the church mand a freer and broader use of the facilities than simply the formal religious worship. Mr. Hoover "Favoring' The Negro (The New York World) Senator Cole Blease emulates the honors of Helfin when he accuses Secretary Hoover of "favoring the segregation in the Census Bureau." Such segregation never existed in a general sense. it is explained; there was a small unit of colored employees who were not relating to the colored population. This was broken up because it "amounted to" segregation, which was against "the policy of the department." Hoover has not been "favoring" colored clerks. He has merely taken pains not to favor them. This may, as Mr. Blease says, destroy all Hooverian hopes of breaking the segregation of an identical candidate. But wasn't that at best, rather, an iridescent dream? LEGS! LEGS!

The common belief that women are just becoming independent was blasted this week when our Mr. Snsozzie, a intensive research work in the Holy Land, returned this week with a chapter of one of the lost Scriptures. It is quite a coincidence that Mr. Snsozzie found a tablet inscribed with husbands and wives with the spring cleaning just when that topic is the cause of much discussion in every household. Frankly, we think Snsozziefitz is fabricating and we doubt seriously whether the tablet is from the Land than Metropolitan Church, but we are passing the translation on.

DAY BY DAY BY WILLIAM N. JONES The unusual activity, maneuvering for advantage and evident ministerial circles, plainly seen as the General Conference approaches, is worth serious study by every member of the group. The history of that denomination has it fuse such a crisis as the approaching one at Chicago. Not that anyone expects any unusual interpretation of whatever happens at this session will reach more laymen, and particularly more young men and women on the one side than on the other, than at any period in the history of the denomination. There is a danger, which churchmen face, in well face, and that is that organized religion, even in our group, is facing the possibility of destructive revolution. There are many reasons for that present leadership, for its most, is becoming so openly lacking in sacrifice, that they do not humiliate themselves, or effacing which is necessary to nourish religious growth. Aside from this, it will be necessary to take into consideration that young men and women, years younger, women and women who came into their mothers' wombs under the spell of hatred which swept over the land at the time of Christ, and who they cannot escape the effects of the mixed emotions of mothers who had to tear from their souls the Christ of Peace and pain in His stead, a Christ of war. They will have to consider that young men and women 25 and 30 years old today, and whose intellectual capacity will mean everything to the church tomorrow, had to live their impressionable years during that same war and the church let them selves be dragged from the dloft idealism of Christ to take part in human carnage of war and that they had to ace it. The most potent factor in staving off that world-wide cataclysm. With this background against which this group will all the General Conference easily looms to unusual importance at this critical time in religious history. It must also be emphasized that every intelligent "young man and woman realize that all the Negro has acquired in religious values the same E. and other church groups wholly under his control. The M. E. Episcopalian and some other religious groups are under white utelage and control. If the A. M. E. Church conserves the deeper spirit of religions sacrifice and attainment on the one hand, or runs amuck with the other, it settles the fate of religion so far as the group is concerned. Whether this great church is headed the one-way or the other depends on the least to the masses of young Methodists, by its attitude towards one big question, which the action of some of its leaders, especially its bishops, have brought to the surreal question of which religions have come or down since the world began. THIS QUESTION IS WHETHER THE TREND OF THE CHURCH EXEMPLIFIED IN S U G H COURSE AS THAT TAKEN BY BISHOP A. J. CAREY, AND DEVELOP A LEADERSHIP OF TEMPORAL POWER AND AGGRAVENESS. POLLOWING LIKE THAT OF BISHOP BROOKS IN WHICH SELF-ABEGATION AND SACRIFICE IS MADE THE CORNER STONE OF THE CITY. This big question transcends all personality, for the course of Bishop Carey may be just as conscientiously laudable in trying to purify Chicago politics and secure his position as that of Bishop Brooks wearing his body out under the hot tropical suns of Africa. Policies Far Apart But to that great body of young men and women between 15 and 30 years of age, who will surely make the church of the next and following generations, these two are as far apart as heaven and hell. If Jesus Christ, Himself, had come to this world, had himself elected Roman agent at Jerusalem on the banks of Jordan and rode to his multitudes in a glided chariot, there would have been no Christian religion. And there is a universal law of human development, young men and women are revolting against religious leaders who tell them to sacrifice and eat corn husks. In this modern age, they do not need religion as an ethical guide. They do not need Jesus, nor the lure of a fairy made paradise to coax them to do right. What young people yearn for is a leadership which will inspire the exalted conception of heroism and abnegation upon which all great movements have been erected. Youth can understand and forgive a moral lapse; it can sympathize with the common hardiness common to human beings; but when a religious leader joins the common herd in the mind of a missionary, when he dips his hands into the flesh pots and saliifies that carnal desire against which they rake so much fuss in the mind of a carcassic disgust as the light of real religious ferrick flickers out of its soul. Political Society If, therefore, the great Methodist Church cannot produce leaders willing to set themselves apart so far as this world is concerned, it must perpetuate a great organization, its spiritual hot on humanity. It will degenerate into a politic, self-centered, and the sed will engage more and more in orges of fights for sports, and the spirit will keep until it reaches every member and its satisites it needs. Spirit will seep until it reaches what happens at Chicago, there.

Haitch, a freshman, gave a splendid interpretation of the "babied wife" that waited eight years before showing her husband that he didn't have all of the brains in the family. Harper's Split Evenly. The leading man, Samuel Popel, was amusing as the "brainy" husband. Cecil Marquez was a splendid doctor, and Louise M. Black, as the widow, was good. The rest of the cast split the honors of the day. The setting was not changed curiously, and Louise M. was changed into an elaborate parlor that was homelike and comfortable.

Call VE rnon 6016 THINGS THEATRICAL Up in New York, where everyone is wise or a Southerner, the gentlemen who give comment on the theatricals are in a verbal battle. The erudite critics are slinging mud -- the two subjects, Resolved. That the audience low; and, Resolved. That critics have done nothing to promote the welfare of the profession. The old stage veteran, Salem Tutt Whitney, has come to the aid of his associates and defended them in his Theoplus ewis has led the attack against the assistance of one editor. Meanwhile, the columnist and actors' crafts in general have chimed in pro and con. After all is said and done and the presses have ceased grinding out exalted opinions, the question will be the solution. In the meantime we venomize, say, the theatricals and critics are just emerging from the pioneer stage. Ethel Gets Serious Ethet Waters, according to the papers, is going to desert musicals, for a while at least, and make an attempt at drama.

Birtime Circuit Starts The "Grind" The Keith-Albee time, long the Mecca of small circuit performers is beginning to offer a few hardships along with its attractive salaries, according to recent decrees. With most of the performers having a policy (working three or four shows daily) the tours will not be as pleasing as before. The decree has come that managers may change their policies without notice and the performers must work accordingly. While affecting some of the performer numbers, some two or three scores of race acts will meet the situation. There will be no concerted wail from the race group no matter what the whites think about it. Few, if any, of the performers on the small time working three or four shows daily in some instances, and that without being overburdened with pay.

The young comic was born in Detroit, and reared in Chicago, where his father worked at different times as publicity agent, waiter, actor and choreat. The death of his wife in 1924 led to his going on the stage. Leaving a position as stock clerk in a New York theater, he went on the theatricals as chorus boy with Miller and Lyles in the original "Running Wild." He later joined the road company directed by Irvin C. Miller and began working as a comic and leading chorus numbers. He also worked forager for "Blue Baby" company, bringing the Howard Theatre, Washington, this week.

STAGE REVIEWS "Levee Days" At Royal Chappelle and Stinette, who have brought Baltimore some excellent entertainment in seasons past, are here this week at the Royal. "Levee Days" opened Monday without much punch and force, due, apparently, to the newness of the company. The musical is a revision of the singing duo's "Kentucky Sue". The week works in a novelty act with Miss Porter. The chorus boys are J. C. Love, George Martin, James Allen, and Melburn Scott. The chorines include Marguerite Wyatt, Mazie Edonez, Vivian Ballaste, Sylvia Collins, Bessie Mitchell, Anita Bogart, Mary King, Eva Smith, Lucille Basey, Billie Fisher and Eunice Anderson. The music is directed by Claude Austin, who also revised the numbers. Carlo Becca is at the piano. "Society Steppers" At Star The blues are still good for a round of hands, when 'sing in the old, husky; natural smanner. Julie Davis is singing them over at the Star in her mis-named, but still entertaining revue, "Society Steppers". Those dancing girls do get in a fey smiley, lively manner, and appreciate the antics of Clemo, "the monkey man", decidedly more. Clemo, who by the way is a Baltimorean, cavorts about in his simian suit, whirls chairs about his head with his teeth, and goes through his house, with his nasties. Too, there is Hattie Noel, weighty miss, who masquerades as a very black and funny man. She, incidentally, wails a few blue notes. Tom Scott is the male funster. William Dotson is pianist for the company. Franching to his tunes are: Fanny White, who turns Tune Smith, Marton Haywood, and Louise Reeder.

Handy Copied "Memphis Blues" From Jingles Sung By Race Workers In Various Parts Of Country NEW YORK. — W. C. Handy, stylized "the creator of blues", will mark his 24th year as an active musician, March 27, when he presents his orchestra and tubile singers in a program of jazz, spirituals and blues at Carnegie Hall. Born in Birmingham, Ala., in 1872, Mr. Handy made his debut from the hometown quartette stage when he, at the age of 60, organized a group of singers for engagements at the World's Fair in Chicago. The call of the road lured Handy and he joined the Hahara Minstrels as bandmaster and musical director. Tours with the troupe took him all over the United States, Canada, Mexico and the West Indies. MUSICIAN FOR 35 YRS. Teaching bands in the South and North. the musician was in constant contact with workers who improvised their snatches of song. Mr. Handy began making use of the melodies in orchestration. His best known composition was used by his band in 1910 before it was designated as blues. The song was first called "Mr. Crump" and was constructed from folk songs picked up in various parts of the country. Reception given his jazz type of composition caused the composer to follow it with "The St. Louis Blues" and the "Jogo Blues". This led to the recording of his first number in 1914. The blues vogue has since swept the world, bringing as new composers as colored into the field of music which is said to be typically racial. Mr. Handy conducts a music publishing house here on Broadway. Vitaphone To Bring Stars To Local Fans Vitaphone To Bring Stars To Local Fans The installation of Vitaphone here at the Regent promises to bring the greatest stars in the theatrical world to local theatre fans at popular prices. Stars scheduled to be seen and heard in the presentation are Sissie and Blake, George Tessell, Elsie Janis, Marion Talley, the Howard Brothers, Waring Pennsylvanians, and Willez and his orchestra. To that list will be the added Mann- mann Helnk, Van and Schenk Weber and Fields, and the Six, Original Brown Brothers. Al Jolson in the "Jazz Singer" will be the first attraction.

Many a colored actor owes his or her success to Ash, nearly all of the directors have imitated him, and Paul Ash policy is known all over the country. On Saturday night Paul and his "Merry-Mad Gang" of entertainers in the ballet theatre, appear in a farewell program at the Savoy Ballroom. Paul's next advent will be at the Paramount theatre. New York City. 20th Century The 20th century is using several acts of valuereville instead of the former straight picture policy. In the Mail We were the recipient of letters from the Florence Mills Memorial Committee, Variety and Greenwald and Weston, the latter booking agents located in the loop, and Kathleen. Variety states that it is not their policy to carry segregated news, and that they have frequently rejected such a proposal. The letter reads in part. "We just might as well segregate the news of the Irish, Protestant, or as of the Jews." "Show people are international and there should be no racial distinction made between them in news matter." Greenwald and Weston, agents, write that they will review the act of yours truly and Lewis Clear, a burnt-crude duo, as well as勒尔 and Clear, in "The South." Invitations are already out announcing the wedding of the writer to Miss Lucille Murray. The wedding will take place on April 22th. Margurite Johnson vacated the Grand on Sunday night and moved into the Globe theatre, Cleveland.

Jerome Carrington, pianist and soloist, is featured throughout the program, and scores well. Billy Franklin, trombonist, former member of the band, scored, rendering "Sister Kate," the famous shimmy song of yesteryear. Others who deeply impressed the audience with their solo work were: Jimmy Bertrand, product of xylophone and trap drums, Armstrong, rival, and Bud Scott, banjoist. Wright Smith rendered a violin solo that would do credit to any first-class conservatory student. Tate's popularity on the dance floor, ability as a director, keeps the "Met" doing capacity business each night. The hook-up is not only composed of the best jazz musicians obtainable, but is well fitted for all types of classical work and picture playing.

Forty race men and women were on the campaign lists of this primary which resulted in one gang murder, kidnappings, street slugging, arrests and will probably result in a shift of police power to the police on the Deneen and Jackson alignment to newly made adherents of the Deneen group. Victory Complete Backed by the so-called reform element and the white newspapers, the Senator Charles S. Deneen forces took the Thompson-Small-Crowe machine on what is called a ride, and in every point in the State and Cook County, particularly, was their victory complete, except in wards populated by the race group, the election of a colored congressman to replace Martin B. Madden, white, William L. Dawson, P. W. Chavers and Chandler Owen lost a hotly contested battle. Notwithstanding the fact that Dawson had the moral support of three of the Chicago dalles. Mamed came out of the race with 9,615 votes to Dawson's 7,910. Chavers received 909 votes and Chandler Owen, 248. The "Defender" and the "Whip," were for Madden. Win G. O. P. Delegates The Thompson candidates for the National Republican Convention, however won, when Dan Jackson and Oscar DePriest with Bishop A. J. Caray and Roscoe Simmons as alternates, defeated Mrs. Ida Wells-Barnett and Benjamin Clayton with C. C. Wimshus the Deneen candidates. Ward Committeemen Group members were candidates for ward committeemen in the second, third, fourth and twentieth wards. On the Republican side, Dan Jackson, Thompsonson, was an easy winner over Wilaro A. Davis, Denenite, and Jacob Tipper, a newspaper publisher, in the second ward where he poled 8,818 votes to Davis' 1,262. The Tipper was small. In this same ward in the Democratic side, Henry Hole white, won over Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion, and A. L. Williams, a lawyer. In the bitter battle waged in the third ward between Oscar DePriest and Dr. A. L. Williams, supreme president of the Royal Order of Friends, DePriest received 8,129 votes while 6,923 went Williams. Charles Krutchoff, who detested wealthy landlord Lindsay in the fourth ward overwhelming majority. The fourth ward contains a large number of voters and Lindsay has been in Chicago only a few years, but has become a leading citizen. Granady Slain Octavious Granady, a lawyer, opposed Morris Eller, white, one of the most powerful Jewish politicians in the city, in ward 20. Granady had only lived in the twentieth-ward for about a year and was not expected to poll much of a vote, despite the fact that he had preached that Negroes should choose leaders of their own where they lived in each town. At the primary Eller received 7,437 votes to 157 for Granady. Ellers' crowd shot and killed Granady on the street. Judges Both James B. Cashin, Thompsonite; and Henry M. Porter, Deneenite, lost their rights for judges of the municipal court. Cashing, with 186,461 votes was twentieth on the ballot and Porter, with 175,980, was twenty-third. Henry Lars, Thompsonite won over James Brewington and Charles B. Travin, Deneenite, for State Central Committee. State Legislature There were eleven candidates for the state legislature. Atty, George Blackwell and Atty, Harris B. Gaines, Thompsonites, opposed the incumbent, Charles Griffin, a Deneite, in the first district. Blackwell and Gaines were victors, nosing out Griffin, by several thousand votes. In the third district, William E. King and George T. Kersey. Thompsonites, were victors over, the Warriors, Douglas. In the fifth district, where whites seemed to have concentrated on white candidates, William Warfield, Thompsonites, was victorious. Flor L. Cheney, white Hayman, Deneenite, and W.

Expect Changes As the smoke of battle passes, Chicagoans are wondering what the upset will mean politically. The present political leaders, including Dan Jackson and Oscar DePriest, held their power through Thompson influence. With Deneen in power, if the old rule of "the victor go the spoils" is pre-empted by those and women who support Deneen group will come in for consideration. Prominently among those who will be in the reckoning are: Judge W. H. Harrison, Henry M. Porter, W. A. Davis and William Haynes. Already there seems to be a "show me" feel if Deneen group stands as fairly behind the colored voter as did the Thompson forces.

LIBRARY CASE TO SUPREME COURT Effort To Jim Crow Charleston Children Goes To Higher State Tribunal Lower Court Declares Segregation Is Legal CHARLESTON, W. Va. — An amends to the Supreme Court of the State of Virginia, challenging the right of the Board of Education of Charleston Independent school district in barring Negro school children and Negro citizens from the main public library in Charleston, will be taken immediately. This announcement was made Thursday evening by T. G. Nutter and C. E. Kimbrough, attorneys for Jackson H. Brown, E. L. Powell and William Sanders, state superintendent of New schools, an action against the Board of Education, after Judge Arthur P. Hudson in Kanawha County Circuit Court, had ruled in favor of the school board. It was shown that the Garnett branch library, which the Board designated for the exclusive use of Negroes, was small, inadequate, lacking in proper facilities and contained in 17,000 volumes, whereas the main library, containing more than 17,000 books, not including numerous magazines, papers and periodicals, and that there are 7,000 Negroes in the City of Charleston. Public Library Spilman, the attorney for the Board of Education, at the hearing on the writ in Circuit Court, Thursday, admitted that the library in question was a PUBLIC library and that the Negro inhabitants of the district paid taxes and contributed toward its support, but defended the action of the Board in barring Negroes by saying that it was the "established policy of the state to maintain separate schools, colleges and institutes of white and Negro citizens" and that that the Board was not "trying to strangle the Garnett library or discriminate against the colored people." Requisition He said that Negroes could get books from the main public library by a "requisition order". This means that if any Negro school child or any Negro citizen wanted a certain book that was not to be found in the 3,000 volumes in the Garnett library, they would have to wait until a messenger is sent to the main public library with a "requisition" order. Bitter Fight A bitter fight is forecast when the case comes up for hearing in the State Supreme Court. The appeal will be based on the fact that the Negro inhabitants of Charleston, American citizens and taxpayers, and granted equal rights under the Constitution of the United States have been and are being BARRED from a PUBLIC library. commit Suicide e? or, sweetheart and you fifty hand-wringing be permitted to wash and knees or to wring "THE AFOE CARRIES MORE NEVER THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY"—Jugene Gordon, 1927 Survey.

HAS OFFICE IN D. C. Probe Of Dixie Political Affairs Goes Thru His Office PARKER SBURG, W. V., April—The candidacy of John Marshall, assistant attorney general of the United States, for delegate from the state-at-large to the Republican national convention. In August, June 12, will receive the enthusiastic support of colored Republicans in West Virginia, it is predicted. In announcing his candidacy two weeks ago, Mr. Marshall did not state any preference for any candidate. He desires to go to the convention unpleased and uninstructed in order that he may work for the best interest of the party. Since his appointment in 1925 as an assistant attorney general in the Department of Justice, Washington, D.C., the leading colored Republicans throughout the United States have contact with the Justice Department, be willing to show them every consideration that he should to any other party leader. They are urging the colored Republicans in this state to support his candidacy. Marshall is in charge of the administration work in the Department of Justice. Appointments of Federal Judges, United States attorneys and marshals are made by the Attorney General upon his recommendation. He is responsible for the appointment of a Justice as assistant United States attorneys in various sections of the country. Investigations In the investigations that are conducted by the Department of Justice, he has exercised his office to see that no unfair advantage is taken of colored persons. When Representative Busy, Democrat, of Mississippi, sought to have a congressional investigation against matters in Mississippi by Perry W. Howard, Mr. Marshall appeared before the House judiciary committee and omitted his resolution. He is seeing to it that agents of the Department of Justice make a fair and impartial investigation of charges of patronage abuses involving Robert R. Church and Benjamin J. Davis, Republican national Committee for Georgia. Five years ago Rev. Monroe H. Davis was greeted by forty members at the night service; on his last Sunday evening service he was greeted by more than six hundred. Five years ago the Rev. Davis led in a quiet usual evening service as any new pastor would; last Sunday night night nigh one thousand fervent worshippers broke forth spontaneously in a great revival: Seven grown persons were added to the church. The Proud Marshall of an auxiliary to a Secret Order ran from one side of the church to the other, until she finally fell in exhaustion; several minutes were required to "bring her to." Everybody was happy and only few could restrain themselves. After five years of service among and for the people, Rev. Monroe H. Davis must have been happy to find that his "last night was his best." nation it seems very probable that Dr. Davis' candidacy will receive a favorable consideration of a majority of delegates of the General Conference of 1928. Mr. Marshall was a district delegate to the Republican national convention in 1820. He was a delegate-at-large in 1824 to the convention which nominated President Coolidge. He is an enthusiastic supporter of the Collidge administration. Rev. Davis is a middle-aged man, having at one and the same time a healthy giant-like physique, a healthy mind and a cheerful contagiously healthy spirit. In addition there is hardly a man in the connection, his age, with larger experience in the field of higher education and the high stations of obligation and confidence, which his offices carry. His home is in Parkersburg, although his official duties keep him mainly in Washington. His friends among colored Republicans include Perry W. Howard, B. J. Linden, Roberts Church, Walter L. Cohen, James A. Cobb, Arthur G. Froe, Charles E. Mitchell and T. Gillis Nutter. After completing the elementary school at Marion, S. C., his home town, and some additional years at Flagler High School, he entered Allen University. There he was thrown upon his own resources, but worked through to an honorable finish, gaining the affection and admiration of his teachers and fellow students.

Complexion, light brown-skin. Wore brown lumber jacket and blue sash. Supposed to have come to the city in a truck in company with two other boys. Mrs. Davis was first on program. In a brief, simple manner, she expressed appreciation first to a group of women present—the Auxiliary to the Doctors' Coachmen—how much she appreciated their contributing so freely to the Provident Hospital Rally, urging the women always to take an active part in community efforts. She then expressed appreciation for the kindly treatment received at the hands of the members and friends of the church. In closing she said that at all points which she and her husband have served there have grown attachments which make her always cry when the time came to leave. Severn H. H.

This was the home church of the late Bishop Chappelle, the funeral sermon of whose mother the young minister preached. missing since April 11th: Madison avenue Holland, mother: age 16, height: 5 ft. 8. weight: 10 lbs. short hair: has small tu- mal, mother: age 16, height: 5 ft. 8. have gone to Newark, N.

Urged on by the zeal for better training, Dr. Davis went to Howard University, where he completed work leading to the A. B. degree, going later to Drew Seminary. At Drew he gained especial recognition in Greek and Hebrew, earning the B. D. degree. During the latter part of his pastorate at Madison, N. J., Davis did Post Graduate work at Columbia University, in the City of New York.

The pastor spoke from the text, "I Am The Way." He pointed to Jesus as being the one way of life, the likeness of God, the solution to all problems. Special Trade In Values Sold on Easy Terms There were two things outstanding about Pastor Davis' farewell services at Waters. One of them has been mentioned—a natural, unexpected, spiritual out-pouring. The other thing was outstanding because of its absence: there was not the least sign of bitterness, even implied, toward anybody in the church or out of the church. When asked by an "Afro" representative for a reason he replied, "The pulpit and its duties are for the good of the people. Problems involved are not for the selfish good of the pastor. He should never have any ax to grind." $35 Phonographs. $14.95 $50 3-Pc. Parlor Suits. $14.95 $50 Bed Davenport. $19.05 sizes. Refrigerators. Up $10.95 $80 Bed Tables.

Four Besche Bros. 1041-43-45-47 Light St. At St. John and Waters the Annual Conference was entertained in the fourth years of Dr. Davis' pastorate. On each occasion the entertained conference was almost unlimited in its praise and expressions of appreciation to the pastor and entertaining people. The Waters Church is among the first-rate charges of the Baltimore Conference. It has an accredited membership of 750 and many probationers. Waters takes pride in a record of strong pastors, a loyal and live local leadership, and the responsiveness of the church to the calls of the great denomination. For three consecutive times the beloved Pastor Davis has been elected to the General Conference. This year he leads the delegation by an overwhelmingly large vote, a clear indication of the esteem in which he is held by the men of his Conference. Rev. Davis, the retiring pastor, adds another mile post to the highway over which Waters has come, another reason to make the old church proud of its past and hopeful for its future. At the General Conference in 1924 Dr. Davis was made a member of the Publication Board, member of the Committee on Compilation and was designated by Bishop William H. Herd to act for him at Ground-Breaking for the magnificent new Publication House at Philadelphia. Just a week from this time Rev. Davis will make a special trip to Philadelphia to audit the books of the $200,000,000 Publication House. As was said of Jesus, Dr. Davis is a High Priest, chosen from among the people, one who is plain, sympathetic, approachable because of the simple life that he has lived, the common stations which he has held, the persistent manner in which he has worked his way from the very bottom to the very top. With this in mind it is not strange that his original home conference, the Northeastern South Carolina, has taken the lead in urging him to become a candidate for the exalted office of the Bishop, and gave him whole-hearted support. Since then, the Central South Carolina, the Piedmont, S. C., Columbia, S. C., the South Carolina, Louisiana, Chicago and Baltimore Conference have added their approval. With such a warm reception coming from points so far apart and so representative of the membership of the denomi- For ten years he has been chairman of his Conference Finance Committee; for almost as long a Conference Trustee; for seven years secretary of Mt. Zion Cemetery, owned by the Conference, and for the past six years superintendent of the (Conference) Old Folk's Home. The most natural step in the order of things will simply be due recognition given one who through the years has used what he had.

Page Twelve RELAY RECORDS SHATTERED BY P. A. L. RUNNERS As a result of eight P. A. L. county meets already held, one record has been twice shattered and others so closely approximated that officials are expecting a number of upsets and closer and keener competition than ever before when the winners of the respective county meets gather in their annual championship events. The record for the 440-yard relay course was held at the White Marsh Marys meet when the White Marsh runners were clocked in the time of 59 4-5 seconds, and again last Friday at the Montgomery county meet when the distance in 1m. 3 4-5 seconds.

Mets have been prime players since Chase, Prince George, Frederick, Howard, Montgomery, Cecil, Kent, Queen Anne's, and Carolina counties. While these high school events the field events have led the way in general excellence of competition.

LYNCHBURG MAN TIES COURSE RECORD The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekiy. GARDNER IS HAMPERED BY TOO MANY BACKERS TOO MUCH ADVICE Eddie Has Signed Away 5 P. C. Of Winnings LOS ANGELES, Cal. (ANP)—After all his weary heart-breaking gallop the desert sands up rocky steeps through towering canyons, and across snow-covered prairies, Eddie Gardner may lose even a place in the big Pyle cross-country marathon. If he fails to show in the money at Madison Hills, New Den, New York, he will not be his fault, but a case of too much meddling, say the experts in Pyle's entourage. This was discussed by them before the 250 runers had finished begun March 4th, at Los Angeles. In an interview, Bill Pickens, Pyle's right bower, and the man who suggested the success, Pyle said. He said, "I don't know what the Seatle said, but it is this fel, wi Phill Grandvance from Jamaica who has the best chance of all and will wear watching. Ed is the most powerful of the men, and he doesn't all that's necessary, but it looks to me as if he too many advisers hung on him. Too many cooks spoil the day. You don't believe any of them know nearly as much what to do for him as he knows himself if let alone. But Granville is not impeded by any advice, telling him how to do this or don't so, that he will run his own race." The opinion voiced by Pickens has been seconded by others of the doctors, attendants, and timers in the Pyle outfit, even to Pyle himself. BACKERS, 908 Athletes Two men in backers, Gardner, one of them a backer, holding a 50 per cent contract on his winings and money earned enroute. This is James Akers, a Los Angeles poolroom owner; the other is a Seattle man. Both are well-educated with acquaintances necessary and unnecessary such as medicines, food concoctions, stimulants, etc. Neither of the men are former athletes of backers, hence at times their liberal advice attests to be harmful. Another backer has remained at Los Angeles, but the two accompany him. He is the quandary for more advice and on two occasions the Los Angeles backer, who is now up with the runners at Victoria Cal, and Winstow, Ariz. in order to help make preparations for harm to the team. But for this it is said he would have held the lead in elapsed time all the way instead of running 68 cr. Wife Sacrificed Ed was so anxious to get in the race that he offered to give up any money he had $175 in the world before leaving Seattle. It required $100 as a deposit for entrance and $25 more to cover the cost of the race that he take the $100 while she kept the $74 and assured him she would work and get along until he finished. He was so determined to geles with the $100 and it was because of his need for the balance that the contracts were signed, that after all he lost. Granville Ahead As predicted, Phil Granville, Canadian walking champion, is pressing hard to overcome the half-way mark. Granville is in fourth position and still going strong, of the other race contenders left. Ed Gardner, Seattle is in sixth position, ten hours behind Granville in elapsed time. SEASIDERS WAKE UP TO BEAT SHAW, 14-1 Gwyn, Shaw Moundsman, Gets Poor Support from Mates HAMPTON INSTITUTE, VA. - The Hampton nine arose from the depression of two successive defeats in the 1920s and Union to defeat Shaw by the score of 14 to 1, here Saturday.

Williams charges played with more harmony than has been shown herefore. Flag and Wilder were outstanding for Shaw.

Saturday, April 21, 1928 "Bill" Force, In Relief Role Shows Old Form Inability to convert their hits into runs proved costly to the Black Sox, Sunday, and they are accused of skaught of the Bethlehem Steel nine, white, by a 13 to 5 score, at Maryland Park. The game was featured by heavy hitting, eleven two-base bows tallied and one three-bagger, the days after the three-bagger fielded was on the mound for the Westport clan at the beginning of the game, the steel mill boys had trotted across the pan seven times. Holloway, Dixon and Egleton cavorted in the outer gardens and Clark was behind the box. The Sox were first to score, counting in the first inning when Jackson and the pitcher ply blow. The Steelman counted three times in the third and annexed a quartet of scores in the fourth frame when a barrage of base balls and three bases on balls did the trick. Atkluson Effective Atkinson, pitching for the Steelmen, while allowing twelve hits was the most important for runners died on the bases and at one time with the bases full Atkinson retired the side either via the side arm or by easy pop-outs to the outfielders. Force went on the mound for the first three men to face him on pitched balls. He weakened in the seventh, however, and the Bethlehem home plate. Powell relieved him in the eighth and "Bob" McClure took the mound in the nightcap but was picked up the side, being picked for two tallies. Sox Rally Fails The Sox staged a belated rally in the eighth and managed to eke out two runs when "Babe" Wilson and the Sox doubled. The Sox again counted in the ninth when Jackson added another run to his day's total. The Sox made a double in the pitcher's on the pitchers. Collins had a good bit of stuff on his slow bail but was erratic, walking six men and striking seven. He men before leaving the rubber, while Atkinson, hurling the entire game for the Steelmen, struck out six hats. Jackson led in the hitting of the day getting three doubles in five tries to the plate. Baldwin, of the Steelmen, made two runs in five times at bat while Gunning and St. Martin hit safely in six attempts with the wi- Cubans Coming Next Sunday, at 2 p. m., the Sox will play a doubleheader with the Havana Red Sox, at Maryland Part.

Joe Jackson, With B ket Eye Peeled, Lead Mates To Victory BASKERVILLE THRILLS Palace Aces Squabble And Forfeit Preliminary An inspired Athletic team, led by Capt. Joe Jackson, who had his basket-ey pockets pulled away from the hasty Lightning Five. Of Howard, at the New Albert, Friday night, to close their campaign with a 14 Victory. Clark, Brown, Plan The Alpha team was bolstered by the presence of "Pinky" Clarke and Curtie Brown, of Morgan, but each team was not shine enough to point to Alpha victory, as both were held to battle each. Sheffey played with no kills. Only three field goals were made by the entire Alpha team while the Greeks counted for three tallies from four, but as has been their custom made a poor shootout at tossing the sphere in from the 15-foot line. Clark fired the opening gun when he shot the free throw with "Moe" Veney fouled the shot. Son of the Alphas, fouled Levi's tossed one in to knot the court. He moved to forward tossed in a doubledecker fielder with lines and Lewis came back with a freak shot to match it. "Cute!" Veney threw through the foul from the foul line. Sheffey In Form Sheffey, sent in at forward, faded some of his last season's form and treated the fairs to a spectacle of the Baskerville smoking and "Baby" Baskerville smoking and enemies' lines until within the foot zone precipitated a deuce that the hoop, much to the delight of the players, followed with a two-point thrust and tallied from the foul line after a technical foul had been called on the Athletics when Hackett left the playing field. Thomas had refused to take his place at the close of the half was 10-7, in the Athletics' favor. Jackson Sparkles The second half opened with Sheffey and Walker in a double foul the blond flash making good on his shot, and Walker in a double foul the time of Captain Joe Jackson, who after thrilling the fans with a spectacular performance, to report his performance then closed his scoring activities by later dropping in one from the side of Sheffey and Johnson, were followed by Thomas who made good on a beautiful filing.

CHAPTER XXI In a tiny room of a great hospital, Les Maternales, Luana's baby was born on a cold December dawn. Was this hers? This tiny blue creature? Somehow she had always thought that her children would be brown babies, was hers, a child brown than as a weak little bug, weak that instead of greeting this world with a lusty hair, had come in a tired silence, and only the efforts of attendants had forced it to air its lungs with first freecle cry. if mine Luna cautiously put her hand out to touch the still, little bundle beside her. "It's a wonder you ever ever lived in, wandering, indeed. Her mind went back over the months before its birth. Long cruel hours she had spent in the hot sun, carrying her shop to repair buildings, or riding in buses, of the distance was great. She noticed she had helped the market women, carrying fruit, emptying pennies for rent and to make a few times she found work in the restaurants, cooking or as scullery masters. Lord, how she had worked, and how cruel and painful the work was. She had walked and stood long hours when it seemed she were dripping with tears. When she felt the warm muscle in her body apart. But she had lived, and so had Lieb And so had the dead. And they they had things. were the impatient. She closed her eyes wearily. Two weeks rest, delicious rest, and after that, hooked up the grind. The five thousand francs had supported when it became absolutely impossible for her to work longer. It had paid for her hospital attent- It had bounty warm clothing for the baby, even powder to make it small sweet and woody. The blankets to keep them warm. O. Liana had been given extravagant about what it had had everything that most babies have, which certainly surprised the nurses of the Matronailles. who were unused. a mother present but with coarse, mended clothes but with a lovely coat for the child. Thank God for that five thousand francs. When the baby was nine days old Lana was discharged from the hospital. On the tenth day, she walked on, working, work. Le Rat Rouge was her best bet. The nay there was good, the boys friendly, they would help her until you could carry on her end of the entertainment. She left the baby with Liebertin while she left to work, for Liebertin was the all day, doing snatches, waiting in a cafe at night. His wage, Loana supposed, went to buy drugs, for she never saw any of it. A strange, rotund Frenchman answered Luana's request for the manager. Out madamme, she said, "He was the manager. The place had cleaned hands. Where was Jimmie? Jimmy? The manager was puzzled. He knew him not. Luana went in a panie. Jimmie — the colored boys who played in the orchestra of Le Rat Rouge — where were all of course, to be sure the manager knew who she meant now. The colored boys had gone, ves gone back at the beginning of the winter season. Was he sure, Out, out, he was sensitive. Had he not dischirmed himself, he was now sure, he was a chatterer. Did they need a dancer, an entertainer? The smiling manager looked Dana over, in the manner of men who judge girls by their appeal to the male sex. He felt it all the way, to flesh the half-cut hair the shabby clothes. Non, madamoisole, they required no entertainer, "Bon jour." Liana went away. That meant that it would be the cruel laboring girl, the cook, the kitchen, the toshs. At such work she must make her living for herself and her child. She felt like crying aloud. The cold winter days left her no time for crying, gave her hardly enough time for the work that she needed to make the baby's milk by the formula the doctors gave her, to bathe the baby, and dress it in its clean. Call Vernon 6016 sweet smelling clothes. At seven she was on her way to work and the hours took their toll of her strength, sapped her of all joy. In the evening she had a drag back to the apartment room, so to speak whatever she could get for herself and Lieb. to clean the rooms, to launder the baby's clothes. A gay time, wasn't it, that she had in gay Paree? The tiny baby amused Lieb, interested him when everything else had lost interest and made him smile when she seemed to have forgotten the baby. When Diana came home she would be lying over the crib, watching the sleeping mite, or walking it up and down the floor, the light burden in a blanket perched on his shoulder. His only conversation was of the baby. Couldn't she have more mite in the bottle? Why did not she get fat? Was she gaining weight? Could she have only what the child ordered, that she would soon be fat and rosy. But she worried herself about little Josie. The baby didn't look like other babies. Sometimes her great round eyes frightened Luana. Sometimes she found herself half afraid to look boo when she came home in the evenings. Would the baby be all right? Every morning she hated to leave it with Lieb. It was so warm, and sweet. It was a struggle to leave it to Lieb, although she had no fear that Lieb would mistreat or neglect her. The little kid was good, Lieb said, didn't cry. Just slept there in the crib. After Lieb had had his morning sleep he walked the baby. On sunny mornings, he even took it downstairs and walked it out in the sunshine. Little Josie was Lieb's life saver. Lieb's interested in life had hurried out, except for Josie. Old, tired lines were etched in his face. He seemed a dead face, except for the quivering nostrils, and the restless, beady, too bright eyes. But we Josie gave him a focus for his attention. A still face for his shifting eyes on. A peaceful little bundle to calm his nerves. The end of February was bitterly cold. So was Luana after helping a fish wife on a windy quay. She carried home orions, carrots and chickens in the carriage. They on a daw like this. Something to give her heat and strength to go on. She strugged along the streets against the winds. Thinking all the time of how warm and sweet Josie would be in her arms. She found Lieb restlessly pacing the floor. "Look at her Luana." he commanded in a jerky, quick way. "We wrapped her in everything I could find, still she's cold." "Two great eyes sought Luana's out of the house and layers of clothing and covers that Lieb had buckled on the baby. Cold. Josse was lee cold except at her temples. They were hot, throbbing. "Lleb, go get a doctor quick, quick do you hear me?" Luana shrilled at him. He ran out into the winter's cold without even a coat. That was the beginning. The following dawn saw the end. That quickly — the short life snuffed out. Luana was stunned, stuffled off. She was shaken. She was shaken. She just so. It must be best. Must be! She sat sit, hour after hour, until the sound of Lieb's crying drove her out. She out on her hat, coat, stumbled down the steps out into the streets. Walked, walked until she had dulled her blood. She drew a seat by the banks of the Seine. Sat there unmoving in spite of bitten cold. It must be best, that her baby should die. Better dead than hand-canned, by inheritance. O. it was better, far better. She should be hand-canned. She should hush to think of the bitter fate that Josie had escaped. She did laugh, so that the sound cackled out on the air and echoed back to her ears. It was a terrible laugh. But it convinced Luana that laughing was out of place, so she immediately gave way to tear, and went some of the soreness out of her The Seine looked cold, forbidding. If it hadn't been for Lieb she would The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. have thrown her wretched body in its depths and wrapped herself in its muggy blankets. But Lieb needed her now. Would need her more later than he did now. Was there ever a time coming when she be freed from Lieb? A string to plea her back from everything was Lieb. Funny how Diek had known all this was coming. Who had taught him that anyway? Paying for past pleasures is about the last point in human endurance, an empty strain, like paying installments, that haunts dislived and broken. Haun's dislived. She'd have to keep on until the last installment was due. How much more? Wee Josie's eyes led her homeward. Chill, empty rooms. Spacious now with the crib and blankets put out of sight. Clean rooms, too clean, unchattered with napkins, bottles, all litter of infancy. Hopeless orderliness. Hopelessly untenanted with only a hagged Liebertini living there. Luana did sieve's chores the rest of the winter, reviled in labor until her mind and body were too numb to function. I forgot that life was happiness, remembering only that she must keep to the grind. Had she stopped to analyze herself she would have said that she lived in a hideous nightmare. She didn't stop for self-analysis. There was only work left in her life-hauling, lifting, cleaning, cleaning, cleaning. It was the scary of the fishwives or at the commands of the chefs. What a mockery life had turned out to be? For her past sins she had paid alone for Lieberthil had ill-treated her. She had a simple process of transferring himself to another drug-dream world. And Lieb! What a hideous companion he was. A ferret faced old man, silent and strange like a ghost of past misdeeds. he was hard to hear in high-flight. Right Joe of Chicago, the soft-voiced Joe, who had somehow contrived to wheedle Luana into answering to the call of his passion, who had linked her to him with unbreakable bands. He was a man who cheated her of everything she had asked of life, who had made her pay for one little epoch of secret love with an era of misery. He was a blitheful Faust disenchanted into a decrepit old Dr. Faust, deputy, deft to everything, desire nothing but his panacea, morphine. He was too listless even to arrange his own clothing, she had to tend him as she had tended little Josie, but, what a difference! He uninvited guest crept into the bare rooms. At first Luana would have none of its company, refused to admit its presence, but finally she knew that the guest had come with her to stay. There was that night, the thao she had opened her eyes to find Lieb bending over staring at her face. She turned cold with fright, her breath had stopped off. He looked so queer intent, his eyes glittered so through the darkness. She must not for him, must not. She reached out and took his hand, held it in a firm but gentle grasd. "What's the matter with you, Lieb?" He did not answer, just continued to stare at her, but she noted that the intensity of his gaze had been broken. "Lie down and go to sleep," she told him. "Go on now, do as I tell you." He obeyed her, and dropped off to sleep. But Luana slept no more that night. Suppose — suppose. She found herself watching him all the time after this. She was always conscious of his eyes, even when her back was turned to him, she found herself listening for him if she stared at him. Always, always she watched him, watching with the eyes of a mother or a creeping child, to keep him from harm, and watching with the distrustful eyes of a keeper on his charge — to see that he inflicted no harm. A pestilential round of dreary days followed, one trailing at the other's end. Nothing but work, and worry and watching. And keeping a tight grip on one's self that one did not actually give way to fear. In the thought that she had reached the very bottom of misery, that nothing could be worse than it now was. She was wrong. Things got much worse. To Be Continued Protecting The Finger Nails Before starting the next dirty job where you are aware that the hands will become very soiled, rub the finger nails over a bar of soap, allowing the soap to dry beneath the nails. This prevents dirt from accumulating under the nails. In Darker Baltimore In Darker Baltimore BY RALPH MATTHEWS Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Dear Doctor: We Baltimoreans are, and we have a perfect right to be, sore with you. We are sore because you permitted your daughter, Yolande, whom we possibly have been trained in holy I (wonder why they call it that) wedlock with Countee Cullen, who, too, is from old Maryland stock, in New York instead of here, and we who have nourished her during the past four years were not permitted to even smell the wedding cake. Speaking out of my turn, I will admit that we Baltimoreans haven't got a blamed thing to do with it you had permitted Yolande to Countee anybody else in York or Hot Kowai, because she actually did get married we feel that we have been treated like country cousins. For four long and tedious years Yolande lived and labored among us. We liked her and showed our appreciation by raising more children to enter Douglass High School year after year. We posed for a moment we had refused to do this. Suppose just for meanness we had sturched birth control and kindred subjects, why in no time Douglass High School would have been closed. Yolande would have been out of a job. With Douglass High School we would have been married. But gotten the pretty bridesmaids we leaned you? In view of the treatment we have received at your hands, we should not, but we do, sympathize with you in the matter of attendance. You and I are going to work and the 3,000 crash the gate. Such bad manners would not have been displayed by us aristocratic solourners along the Chesapeake. If you had invited 1,200 we would have probably pulled straws from the fireplace and most 1,000 is enough to witness any wedding you might mention. You wouldn't have had to call out police to keep us quiet either because we have been properly "bring up" and know how to behave in church. If all these reasons are not sufficient to convince you about how badly we need to be treated, surely break down and ask our forgiveness when I inform you that as many as fifteen or eighteen copies of the "Crisis" are read here every month and when you recall that we have a population of but 122,000 you can see how lovely we support and assist them. Forging you for your oversight upon your promise never to let it happen grain.

Oscar Wilde said in one of his books "The clergy does not think. it is dull and stupid and is saying the same things today that it said generations ago." Agree with Oscar Wilde or disagree with him. All of our ministers picked the same text, developed it the same way, said the same things and made the same gestures this Easter that they did last Easter and the Easter before that. No innovations, new twists, new treatment, they merely pounded their pulpits and raved about immortality and sweated unnecessarily trying to convince us that we were in sympathetic situations that the Saviour actually lived, absolutely was crucified and positively apse from the dead. One look at the collection plate would have convinced them that the majority of colored folk are completely sold on this proposition. So we were here every day, a close observer would have a sneaking suspicion that they all copied out of the same book while the teacher was not looking. The R.E. Charles Stewart, of Trinity M. E Church, perhaps did something out of the ordinary. He said something very remarkable although erroneous. He said that the opinions of a man under thirty-five are worthless. Being under thirty-five is not worth a statement. Not, mind you, because I think that my opinions have value, but because there are so many other fellows under thirty-five who contributed nothing to our growing collection that have "there is no fool like an old fool." In that one statement Dr. Stewart put all of the sermons preached Easter Sunday to naught. In that one statement he made all the pulpit rounding that has gone on for ages just so much wasted energy. In that THE GREAT ATLANTIC & PACIFIC TEA CO. Don't Make a Toy Out of Baby Babies Have Nerves By RUTH BRITTAIN Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the overstimulation during infancy, caused by regarding baby as a sort of animated toy for the amusement of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not for more than a quarter of an hour to an hour daily. Beyond that, being handled, tickled, caused to laugh or even scream, will sometimes result in vomiting, and invariably causes frittability, crying or sleeplessness. Prefitness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with more consideration, but when you just can't see what is making baby restless or upset, better give him a few drops of pure, harmless acortia. It's amazing to see how quickly it calms baby's nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it fends off brugs or opiates. It is purely vegetable—they don't lead the way. Leading physicians prescribe it for colic, cholera, diarrhea, constipation, gas on stomach and bowls, feverishness, loss of sleep and all other "upsets" of babyhood. Over 25 million bottles used a year shows its overwhelming popularity. With each bottle of Castorine, you get a book on Motherhood, worth its weight in gold. The Classics feature signature on the package so you can get the best Castorine. There are many imitations. Lesson In Baking Cake By **AKN PAGE** Director A. & P.

If it is true that the opinions of any man under thirty-five are worthless, what difference does it make whether Christ rose from the dead or not? If the Bible is depended upon he did not believe in three and therefore his views of life are not worth paying any attention to anyway, so why bother about that?

DABNEY) CHARLOTTE. N. C.-Anyone passing thru the South today is impressed first by two facts: the rapid new spirit of cooperation between the races. North Carolina is becoming a state of cotton towns and tobacco centers, and the number is now 10,000 Negroes work in tobacco factories. There are more than 12 cotton towns between Wilmington and Charlotte. North Carolina is in many respects more significant than the phenominal migration of Negroes North between 1916 and 1922 and 1922 and 1922 are migrating to the small industrial towns of the South, thus rubbing shoulders for the first time in a new relationship to each other, especially in the tobacco factories, they are being subjected to the same treatment and conditions. Under this new relationship, one naturally vowes to each other's enemies or friends. Interracial Contacts While rural Negroes and rural whites are coming into close contact with each other in these small towns, it is very fortunate that the better elemen t of the majority whereby both races in North Carolina and the entire South can cooperate for the common good of the races. I have made inquiries about race relations in every city I have visited. The response to such inquiries has in every instance very encouraging. In Richmond, for example, white doctors and nurses have recently worked side by side in the city to help a health clinic held under the auspices of the Richmond Urban League. Raleigh has an interim committee composed of the leadine nurses and Negroes with the whites and will peace between the races. Following Booker T. In the work of interracial cooperation, the South is trying to follow one or the other by booing Washington in his famous speech of 1865 at Atlanta, Georgia. Interracial Cooperation in the South is proceeding on that that are purely social we can be as separate as the fingers of the hands, yet one as the hand in all things. This idea was in the mind of one of the leading citizens of Greensboro with whom I had an interview regarding race relations: Mr. Hines said: "The whites and blacks on our committee work together harmoniously, but our work is purely a business proposition, the races in this work whatsoever." In Winston-Salem another white leader speaking about another or other race, said: "The southerner you would understand that we cannot offer to have whites and blacks mix social on the same basis, severely criticized." I hastened, of course, to inform this leader that I was a southerner, born and reared in his beloved home state of Virginia. Law And Order When I passed thru Raleigh I learned that a Negro charged with the murder of a white girl was there for safe keeping until the trial; and as fat as he was, the sign that anyone was planning to take the law in his own hands to avenue the accused. This does not mean that law and order has been established in North Carolina or the South, but it does Would like to get in touch with teacher of string lessons or with any of the settled disposition.

PRESS ASSOCIATION HITS DIXIE DAILY PRESS White Press Speaks Better Of Cattle Than It Does Of Colored Race DAVIS REELECTED 41 Delegates Present At Louisville Meeting IOUISVILLE, Ky., (ANP.) — In all the Southland, there is not a white daily that is fair and decent, nor the Navy. The majority of them speak better of cattle, a thousand times, than they do of the race. Yet, we buy and pay for this Silme and Slander defense president of the Negro Press Association, in annual meeting here April 11-13. Forty-one delegates were present. Milwaukee won over Houston, Texas, or the next convention. Louisville, Georgia national commissioner, author of the Atlanta independent, said. The white press has advertised the Negro to the world as a shiftless, insecure, and shifty member of a community where he lives, and the world believes it. No other agency could have so obscured the Negro in the community. There is one way, and means to meet and count of this vile slander and libel, that one and only one fire meet, and own grounds with a well-organized Press devoted to the defense and uprooting of the Negro people for the race sake. The Press is an all-powerful factor in the race for the mine, for the race for the black people everywhere. The Press is an all-powerful factor in the race for the mine, for the race for the black people everywhere. With the possible reception of the public, the Press is the most powerful human agency in developing the greatest civilization, to save the Christian religion, to cultivate human. The standard of a peo- religion and civilization is defined by the morality and diligence of their newspapers. This is no greater sentiment-maker than a well-organized press hitherto on all sides. The white man's well organized and trained Press is our greatest hammer and an enemy. That the Press Owe The Press. The Press is the people's champion, and they owe it liberal support and encouragement. The Press ought to look on a newspaper as a property of individuals, but as a public institution, which the public is duty-bound to support and connect. Every family, business and industry is dependent on a newspaper is the common property of all, and all owe it a living."

Williams' Farm Can Raise FARMERS AT GIBBONS Institute Host To Second Conference Of Year RIDGE, Md.—Southern Maryland has a wonderful climate, fertile soil, and is in proximity to good markets, declared Laurence P.

GOOD MORNING JUDGE He Proved His Point But It Was Costly John Hughes, 629 Bradley street, believes in proving every he says to the satisfaction of all doubters, that he can prove himself in a great deal of trouble. Thursday. During a party at his home he was boasting of the powerful revolver he had of the gun, the weapon he of the guests expressed his doubts of the weapon's ability to perform all that the owner claimed of it. He was to be sent to his room and returned with the gun and deliberately shot Johnson in the left foot. He then called a taxi and removed him to the hospital a convinced man. "Were you angry with each other?" questioned the magistrate. "Well, roplied the injured man. I can't see that could have been any too pleased." "Judge," said Hughes, "I just shot him to prove my point." "Judge," said the judge, "but it will cost you $15." When a high yaller gal and a seal skin brown wile with each other for a kiss, she shook her head, shaked her skirt, trouble always results. That is just what happened when Miss Artance Adams, 21, 168 W. Hampton Street, an ebony jacket in West Street, misses 100 Pen Valley, aloft of sepa complexion, were arraigned in the Southern police station to explain why razors had been used on her neck. "It was like this. Your Honor," said Miss Adams, "we were at a party and Lillian here, who thinks she is betrayed, and we take to take my fellow, who was the best looking man at the party, and when he gave her the cold shoulder, she picked a fight with me, and called me, and I smacked her, then she cut me. "When it came to love making," said the judge, "you were out, but in the end, you were, so I fine you both $5 and costs." A Chance To Put Friendship To Test William Swift, 1724 Pressman street, lived up to his name when he played detective and had Eugene Browne rested after the latter had robbed his garage. Thursday. "What is this all about?" asked the magistrate when the case was called and attracted by a noise in my garage, and when I investigated, I saw this man leaving with two of my best autographs got away, and then I went back and got in my automobile and took up the trail again, and finally overtook him putting the robes on a horse. "I borrowed that horse from a friend, and as I was going past that garage, I saw those blankets, and I thought they would be a nice present for the man," he said.

STREET CAR KILLS MAN IN STOCKING FEET Unidentified Man Hit While Walking On Tracks Tuesday Morning • An unidentified man was killed by an Edmondson avenue street car at the intersection of Edmondson avenue and Brookwood Lane, early Tuesday morning. The man had a small amount of money in his possession, but nothing to indicate his identity. He went West Baltimore General Hospital in a passing automobile and then taken to the morgue. Police are trying to locate his friends or relatives. Wilbert M. Hunt, white, motorman of the car, told police he noticed the driver of the tracks in stocking feet. He applied his brakes but struck the man before the car could come to a stop. The man is described as being 46 years old, weighs 180 pounds, and of a dark brown complexion. He was dressed in dark pants with gray stripes, black coat, purple tie, light scarf, white shirt, but no shoes. LOKER WITH AX Refusal of Arthur Commodore. 932 W.

This lady had been suffering from severe aches and pains, especially on her feet a great deal. Fortunately, she became acquainted with another lady, who had been in the same condition and had found relief from a famous tounge called LEM-COD, and known as the "All Year Round" Tonic. So, one tells another and LEM-COD spreads its fame for giving satisfaction. She advises her friends that LEM-COD may be secured at all Drug Stores or by sending $1.25 to the Lem-Cod Company.

Baltimore County's steeplechase for graduates of the colored elementary schools will be staged again the next county school board has decreed. The county has several high schools for whites but none for colored. Last year the rule was made that tuition of colored graduates and an effort to initiate the practice in 1972. The colored grammar school graduation must take the examination this year, the board announced at Relisterstown, Catonsville, Towson, Spartanburg. Examination questions will also supervise the tests and grade papers. Pupils must make a passing grade of 60 per cent in all subjects to pass. The procedure was followed but last year and a bare dozen out of the 100 eligible pupils passed. The county-wide parent-teacher association is expected to discuss the examinations* and meetings at meeting to be held Wednesday of next week, at the Relief Association office, 3:30 p. m. Officers of all local associations are expected at this meeting. Phone CA-Ivert 2000 $5 1 These dashing college boys were just too wild for words back in 1895. The first is none other than W.

Half Century Club Dance Brilliant Post-Lenten Event POOR SHOT PREVENTS TWO MURDERS IN N. W. Evidence that he shot Romeo Penn, 1347 N. Stricker street, only after Penn had fired at Miss Annie Cox, 508 Oxford street, and then at him, was given in the Northwestern police station by Patrolman B. Berry. Thursday, Penn was shot in the side, it was declared, during the exchange of builts. According to Miss Cox, she and Penn had been friends for some time when the latter objected to her having other friends. When she refused to conform to his demands he threatened to kill her, she testified. Book Shots: Penn left the house but returned a short while and called to the girl to look out of the window. As she did so he fired two shots at her. The report of the weapon attracted the patrolman who gave chase, ordering the man to stop. Penn fired two shots at him. The patrolman returned the fire, one of the bullets came from the side. Penn Charged. After the hearing Penn was committed for the action of the grand jury in $3,500 bond, on four charges of assaulting with intent to kill Annie Cox, assaulting and shooting at an officer, carrying a deadly weapon and discharging firearms within the city limits.

Club Dance Post-Lenten Event Baltimore's elite shook off its soberness, self-imposed during the Lenten season, and stole timidly forth to attend society's outstanding event The Half Century Club's dance. This exclusive organization has for years been the medium of social interaction. In spite of the fact that this year found the Half Century debutentless, it is conceded by all who attended the affair at Elks' Hall. Fright, that it was the most brilliant institution and painstaking attention to detail were exercised by the committee of arrangements; and their dexterity was felt from the moment one stepped under the canopy of the staircase. Doorman until the final strains of Isaiah Thompson's Symphony Orchestra meant another night had ended. involve-thirty the intermission permitted a breathing spell, during which ices were served. Gowns were both attractive and in keeping with the latest Paris decrees. This affair gave milady excellent opportunity to display her modes and the results were revealing. OUT-OF-TOWN GUESTS C.

COLLEGE MUST SET STANDARD Community Should Develop Morgan College, Superintendent Tells Group MINISTERS AND TEACHERS FLAYED Dr. Baldwin Rups Those Who Have Not Kept Subscription Pledges Every community needs a first class college to-set its standard, Dr. David E. Weglein Supt. of Baltimore City Public Schools, told a dinner group held to promote the Morgan College campaign, Monday night in the Douglass High School cafeteria. "Without John Hopkins University and Morgan College," Dr. Weglein said, "the excellent Baltimore junior high schools, which have attracted country-wide attention, would not have been developed to their present level." Recounting that the present salary schedule of the city school system is based on progressive scale with increased efficiency as a basis, that professional college work units are required for junior high school work and a college degree for high school teaching. It was necessary to have more learning in the college. He urged a generous attitude towards Morgan and praised the efficient work it was doing in setting the educational and cultural standard for the community. Raps Ministers Dr. Charles W. Baldwin, white, veteran retired pastor and friend of the university, has also praised ministers and teachers who have not kept their subscription pledges to the institution. "Among these ministers and teachers," he said. "are some who live in fine homes, ride in expensive automobiles and wear fine clothes, while they have not the moral backbone to which they can send their own children. While many whites, including myself, have given both time and money to erect a creditable institution here in Baltimore, many of your own people have failed to keep faith in ladies. Dr. Baldwin ended his remarks with a passionate appeal to the pride of the group, declaring that although he had placed a legacy in his will for the college, he would take it out of his will if the race, itself, showed continued lack of genuine interest. Around 200 diners attended the meeting and the President, Dr. John O Spencer, introduced Dr. Weglin, Dr. A. J. Mitchell, special agent of the institution, presided. A number of nides to complete the Morgan campaign to match the $50,000 promised by an educational foundation was made at the dinner and a drive started to get the required amount by May 20th.
