C. Painting a true picture of the lot of the Negro in America, Clarence Darrow, white noted criminal lawyer and champion of civil liberties, in an open-air speech in the pavilion at Suburban Garden last.Sunday declared that the Negro himself must carry on the fight for equality. He predicted success after a slow spinning death. The doors of Washington churches had been barred to Mr. Darrow because of his association by criticising preachers for their selfish pursuit of money. **God Is White** He ridiculed the idea of the existence of a god. If there is a god, he said, he must be white because aiding the black people and did nothing about it. If preaching and praying helped you'd had your rights, long ago.

C.—Five instructors are under investigation at Howard University. Their names are withheld. A curious article in the student paper "Hill Top", April 4, by Walker H. Jordan started the probe. Jordan in his article entitled "Just Runner" wrote: in a college girl present no honorable reason why a married faculty member should press upon that girl's lips, unilateral, unacceptable and therefore flippable.

I am not sure for either As, Bs, or silk lingerie, but in defense of these latter especially that every self-respecting man should be aware of wavering voice, and take unimpeded hand." **Absolute Proof** "It is a most regrettable admission that absolute proof in such matters is not possible, but I practice these nefarious schemes take careful pain to see that there is no audience, and in the showdown one end is as good as the other. I open the door, which when opened, reveals a girl cloaked with an individual whose unavoidable reputation is beginning to be known, one may be what one wishes."

More than 2000 other race voters registered but were also not permitted to vote. --- The text of Mr. Darrow's speech is as follows: "I am aware that the preachers who watch, but try to take them there midnight, but try to take them there night. I am aware that some objections. That is all I am aware of living. They do not want any people to live. The people are willing to follow them and put it over, it is, none of my business.

Roman Says Chance To Get Rich Is Too Big A Temptation REAL PASTORS SHOULD GET THE HIGHEST PAY Church A Laymen's Organization He Tells Detroit Congregation DETROIT, MICH. — The life tenure of office, the chance to get rich and unlimited power have become temptations which few ministers can resist and has produced more-candidates for the bishopric than are seeking to enter the ministry, Dr. C. V. Roman, told a congregation at Greater Bethel A. M. E. church here Sunday. Dr. Roman, who delivering a lecture on "Our Church, the Laymen's Church," declared that Richard Allen, who founded the A. M. E. Church was a layman and that when there will be no laymen there will be no church Was Baptist I was reared as a Baptist, said the speaker, and the present Bishop J. Albert Johnson was my first pastor in the A. M. E. Church, in Canada. I needed him make that church A. M. E. We have gotten to the point where we need something changed. The church is a man-made institution the same as an automobile, and needs to be economically better to reform than to have a revolution. The most important officer in the church is the pastor. But in our country we have been from above and neglected from beneath. He has *face* the rise of the laty with their progress. He must gather up money some settrap sitting above him and oppres- 188 Candidates Fuler of them all. Poster Omnimede As it is now any bishop can degrade and humiliate any pastor in the conference. The leading A. M. E. church in the United States and M. E. church. The bishop took the pastor from the church. The people asked for his return but were denied and had the property in the name of the trustees. They met and voted to leave the A. M. E. connection and get up dollar money. No bishop has a right to a salary equal to a man who would fill this church every where is there where we have wrong. Women Preachers Now how are we going to get young men and women preachers? Incidentally, I believe in women preachers. I don't think women should try to ureach like men any more than I think men should preach like women. But some of the best sermons I have heard were from Presiding Elder The presiding elder in the A. M. E church today is just as useful as an oxert for traveling. They go down to the general conference and they start talking about raising the salary of the bishops you talk about raising the bishops you talk about raising them. Let them first prove that they are earning what they are getting. Dr. Byrd Ousted JERSEY CITY—Dr. Wm. A. Byrd has been voted out of the pulpit of Lafayette Presbyterian Church effective June. 1.

Would Raise Funds For Purchase Of A Colony KINGTONS, JAMAICA. B. W.

In outlining the plan at a mass meeting here, recently, Mr. Garvey pointed out that Europe needed money and that U. N. A. could easily mobilize millions of dollars to promote the scheme. Garvey adherents believe that the European governments will not be averse to the establishment of an government of Africa, which were to his first dream of having the natives take over the continent under his rule. As renewed drive in the United States, he is engaged when simultaneously with the departure of the former provisional president to Europe, E. B. Knox, a right hand man and American leader of the organization, the States to conduct the work there. It was also indicated that U. N. A. in America would reorganize intensively behind the new program and would be building of a nation on African oil would be the battle cry. In his last address here Garvey also announced that upon his return he would enter the politics of the country run for the legislature of New York and maintain measures which would benefit his group. The whole country of Jamaica is practically in the hands of 200 million people, and it introduce measures similar to those introduced in England by Lloyd George, which would have for the purpose the restoration of the lands to the people who must work on them. If he is successful, Garvey also announced that he would introduce himself to the public by shoes on the bare feet of his country and clothes on their backs.

Property And Ask $800 Alimony "KIP" IN HIDING AS COURT ACTION LOOMS Separation Suit Will Be Based On Desertion And Cruelty NEW YORK — Another and perhaps the final chapter in the Rhinelander case is expected to begin here this week when the wife of the social scion goes into court to ask separation, an arrangement tying up $500,000 properties and $800 permanent monthly alimony. This action of Mrs. Rhinelander is said to be the result of alleged efforts of her husband, thought to be in Louisiana preparing legal grounds for forcible annulment suit under marriage laws of that state, and the fact that the present $300 monthly alimony she is receiving is temporary. Would Block Move Mrs. Rhinelanders intended court action would not only block efforts of her rich and socially prominent wife, but also of which now binds him and his millions to the former Miss Alice Jones, but she seeks also to tie up permanently as much of his property as is inherited, and allows almamy as the court will grant. Voluntary $300 Since the annulment proceedings at White Plains in which Alice succeeds, she was asked to "kick" knew the color and texture of her skin long before he whispered the marriage proposal and refused to answer. Mrs. Rinkhalter has been receiving 300 monthly on a voluntary basis. Indicating that she was going to make this marriage a lifetime affair, she has also institute the separation proceedings on the basis of desertion and cruelty and attempt to have a trustee appointed and personnel fixed, "so she knows what is coming to her the rest of her life." "Kip" In Hiding For some time "Kip" has been out of reach of officers who would serve court papers on him. It is believed that he has been in Louisiana. There is a law in that state forbidding marriages between persons and persons having one-ighth-Nero blood in their veins and it is believed he was there trying to qualify as a citizen so that he could bring action for annulment. BELLEFONTE, PA—Robert Lofus, who voluntarily surrendered after his arrest for Terre Haute exorcism, was executed on a electric chair Monday.

Zion Session APPOINTMENTS LOST IN WILD DISORDER Tragedy Canne At Close Of Eventful Meet Of Methodist Body GAMDEN, N. J.—A tragedy marked the close of the A. M. E.

The crash, which was followed by wild panic and contusion, endangered the lives of hundreds seated in the crowded edifice just before the attack, many of whom were trapped and broke their way to safety thru stained windows.

Eleven other persons, whose names were treated as physicians, were treated at Cooper Hospital for pain and brushes. Scores of others were treated at the homes and offices of physicians. Narrow Escapes That the loss of life did not run into the hundreds was attributed to the fact that back part of the falling gallery did not give way, that the lighting system did not fail and that the police officer was race policeman Henry Hall, who in the building at the time of the accident. The balcony stretched around three sides of the church and was surrounded by lamps and lars inspection showed. The large crowd in the rear and east side of the church put an over strain on the joisting and it gave way in front of the women screamed "fire" and there was a terrible crash. Men, women and children in the allining gallery slid down the wall and the women were of range of the falling timber, while those nearer the wall were pinned in a darkened area. Many of the escaped by breaking through windows. Bishop P. A. Wallace, who was presiding at the time, declared that "he thought a bomb had exploded". Dr. William Ferris, who had just been handed the list of pastoral appointments by Bishop Wallace, had been taken to the scene.

MARK HANNA HALTED G.O.P.JIM CROW AT ST.LOUIS IN 1896 Page Two MARKH HANNA HALTED G.O.P. JIM CROW AT ST. LOUIS Chairman Of Nat. Committee Threatened To Move Convention Elsewhere ST. LOUIS HOTELS THEN DROPPED COLOR LINE Unprecedented The move to segregate colored delegates to Republican National Conventions dates back to the year 1896 when the late Wm. B. McKinley was nominated and made standard bearer of the party at St. Louis, Mo. McKinley whereas the Kansas City local committee notified Messrs. Perk Howard, Ben Davis and their followers in advance that they were to be the St. Louis committee didn't inform the colored delegates that they were to be segregated. As so happened, the St. Louis committee of the State of Mississippi, Wright Curry of Texas, and Vance and Dumas of Louisiana were enroute to St. Louis in Illinois. They learned first of it through a St. Louis daily. They found in boid face type an article written by J. Milton American of prominence to advocate a division of our vote, under the caption, "Negro Delegates. To Be Segregated At National Republican Conventions." Immediately upon arriving in St Louis Messrs. Hurst, Hurst, Cuney, and leaders purported to the Jefferson Hotel, the headquarters of the late Mark Hanna, who was then the national chairman of the Republican leaders purported to the Jefferson Hotel, the headquarters of the late Mark Hanna, who was then the national chairman of the Republican leaders purported to the local committee before him. Mr. Hanna called the national committee to meet in formal session and then the local committee to present Hall. Mr. Hanna arose after Senator James B Thurston, vice chairman, called the body together and said, "We women, our colored delegates from the South brought it to my attention today that the local committee has had them segregated. Mr. Hanna has had them segregated. Mr. Hanna matter before before and then I shall give you my views in this matter." Amid thunderous applause, Jim Hance and began to sneak. Said Mr. Hill. "My attention was called to what the local committee has done in the past. I am sure you perceive here today. I want to know if the Republican Party is willing to Raunt in the face the very summer so valiantly fought for by segregating its members from my section." Mark Hanna jumped up and declared in the midst of the applause, $200,000 Offered "I want you to act and act quickly. I want you to move this convention to another city if the hotel managers refuse to rescind their segregation order. It is not the policy of the Republican Party to condone segregation. You come that members of our party will adhere to such a policy. "I called your attention to the words of President Obama who while in the Union Army in New York City, said, "Comrades of the boys in Blue, let us not forget the black boys who wore these uniforms. I've seen white men forsake the flag, but under their skins there never was found a traitor. "Are we so soon to forget these men and their children that we of course have fought for and Lincoln died for?" Order Received In less than twelve hours after Mr. Hanna laid down the cudgel to the hotel managers of St. Louis, the order to bar colored delegates was made and access to all hotels in St. Louis, Mo. The question now simmers down to this: "Will M. Butler follow the example of the voters? Poles Are Saying Will Davis and Howard, who have at their disposal delegates to deliver to Mr. Butler, abide by the rules of the local committee and stand for themselves and their delegates to be segregated at Kansas City, Mo? Butler Butler fails to action the action of the local committee in Kansas City, is he a traitor to the friends of the Republican Party? If Davis and Howard accept surrender, they are traitors to their race! It is idle to argue that Messrs. Davis, Howard and Butler have no voice in what the local committee is doing. Butler must necessarily depend upon Messrs. Davis and Howard to deliver their delegates to the man who has the greatest voice in the standard bearer of the party. Mr. Butler has full power to force them to rescind their order of segregation or move the convention elsewhere. Hanna did it. Why not Mr. Butler?

"You were told during the late war that the world was going to be different after war, but not for you. It is somewhat different, but not for you. "You went to war and fought. The only time Negroes ever had an equal place in the war, they generally put you a little ahead then. "Bought Liberty Bonds. "You bought liberty bonds. You were told to buy them and the American governments' standing for freedom. I could understand how some people could believe it, but I could not. "You could not believe them. Men should be better it. You know better. "You have been urged always, no matter how much you need your money, to Churches Closed To Garrison. "There have been many white people who visited William Lloyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips, Ingerloyd Parker, Philibert, but they never were all on the other side. "The battle from now on will probably be fought by the colored people. You will be friends among the whites, but not many." Education-Property "You are not going to get much help here and you are not going to get here and for yourself. It has got to be on earth. It will not come from the earth. It will have a chance to get it from the clouds." God, Screw, All "Of course, you never had a chance on earth. I wonder if you are going to have a chance to go to heaven.

M. A. O. You think you have a chance. "Whatever you think, you have got to get yourself. You think you can do it. You What Is Race? "What is a Negro any way? We talk about it. We talk about it. There is any such thing as a Negro in any way. We mean when they talk about a race? They talk as a knightly made a white man, and a black man, all different race, and a yellow man, all different race, and a white man, all different race, ever happened. There are no different races about by natural processes. Intimately about by natural processes as race. Of course, when you see a black man, a good man, a man whose color is black. A good man, a man whose color is black. That does not make any difference. One Drop Of Black Blood "One drop of black blood, if there were such a thing, attests it. Black blood must be used to attack one drop of black blood. I do nothing with thing to brag about myself." And the colored blood must be mighty good to attack and is a part of the same appropriations that have been taught forever and forever, probably will be taught forever and forever. Adam's Bib Used "There are only two ideas of the origi- nation of America. One is that God made Adna roiled him up out of dust, and then Adam loved him. The other is that God took lord took away a rib and used that to make love. He perfected love with him, when he perfected love with these two, he let the race shift for it." Where Did Colored Blood Start? December Moses, if the account is true, took a look at the man. That is a long white. I made the shirt the different two years ago. This shows the different years, two years ago. His early ancestry probably took a longer time and never came back until it brought him. "But as for race, it means nothing. It means different conditions of living, and it means different conditions of existence for long periods of time it shows color or in features, no matter what the color was away area." **President Human** "I do not know which is the prettiest human, but I know that every person has his own fancy as to what he does not believe that, you look at their houses. "I know that the colored people have better than any chance. They are getting better and better than ever, they have ever had before. The rest of if you have got to do." **Liberty Bonds** "You were told that if you bought liberty bonds and went to war, it would be better than any chance. It was as far as you could, and some of your people fought and many of them died. Not many officers—privates—and when came back after your sacrifices, they commended you when you wanted to walk on the sidewalk." The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. IoDinas.Com In Auto Factories "In times when they need labor in the North, they are very glad to have colored houses. In the day time, they are no place for them to sleep at night. They cannot get homes in a decent part of the city. They need conditions because they want them to work. North Getting South **Wilmington** "In the Northeast, much feeling for the NEGro today as there was when we were in the South," she said. "Ideas that the poor originally had that were taken away from them have taken the jobs that white people supposed were thorns. They are trying to force them to try to make them keep their places. Tips—Inferiority "It is easy to convert people to a state of mind, and they are better to be, but a people cannot gain independence by being better but cannot help it. They are willing to pay you in that way, but to take care of them, you must give them you want to live on them. They want to be the bosses and have you take them." You have had to do it more or less. You will have to do it more or less in the way that it is, if it enjoys it, he ought to have always the spirit of resentment and the determination that sometime it will be dif- Booker X.—BnBols Boland Harn "In there anything that white people can do as well. There are artists, there are authors, there are posts, and, of course, there are singers who colored people." The white people like to hear their voices so well that they go over the radio and mix with the whites. I should think they would be afraid. They would "Singing and dancing are the places where everybody likes to sing about either. That is why they have made good music out of such a fool's life." And everybody likes to hear it, although the words do not mean anything, not to me. Church Safe In Slave Days "Of course, in the old days of slavery your people were never allowed to get into the only place they could go, the only place it was safe to have colored people together for fear that they would be killed. Religion and they would care nothing about liberty. And so the churches did such good service in the days of slavery that they were always in danger. Anything else in danger. Churches Get All Whites and blacks have had their religious views, and to these it have no objection. You have to make it clear to me to make the fight for equality your priority. You haven't got much money. You need every cent of it for important moves, some of it. But it is a shame and an insult to some of it. But it is a shame and an insult. There are colored lawyers superior to whites. There are colored surgeons as good as white surgeons. There are professions on par with them. Where did they have a chance of education? They haven't had a chance. ABILITY Genius Not Gloomy "How are you going to build up this once you do not want to be groomed about it?" You have got more property today than ever before. You have got more education than ever before. You have got more schools than ever before. You have got more medical schools, both of them poor. Howard, of course, gets some aid from the Government, not from the Nashville without aid from the Government can hardly exist. There is only one place you are not blocked and handcapped.

They need money. wrong and injustice they are to help. Of course, the praachers can pray about them. They need not get anywhere even on a bright day. "They are the only fighting organization that has got much better opportunity the colored people have under the law today, both before they went into service for and before they went into service for." Consolation "They are entitled to a part of it. It has to be given some consolation out of it, and there is not too much consolation for colored persons.

O. P. Meets Despite In junction, Delegation Uni-structed States' Twelve Votes May Go To Lowden JACKSON, Miss. — Having found a loop-hole in the in-junction restraining them from meeting, the Republican organization, headed by Perry W. Howard, national committeeman for Mississippi, held its state convention here on April 18 and elected a "threat" delegation to the Republican national convention which meets in Kansas City, Mo. June 12. Six of the twelve delegates elected are colored. Contrary to expectations, the convention failed to instruct its delegates to the Secretary Helbert Hoover for the Republican nomination for President. Hoover, who is said to be on friendliness, terms with the "illy whites" in the state to support and declare his approval of the "black and tan" Republican otherwise Mississippi's twelfth senator, former Governor Frank O. Loewen. The convention instructed its delegates to vote for the reflection of the state's senator, the committeewoman, Mrs. Mary C. Bound of Mound Bayou, as national committeewoman. They were adopted parking the administration of President Cox and the handling of party affairs by the national committeewoman. Mr. Howard addressed the convention at length. He attacked the "illy whites" for attempting to set in Mississippi a white Republican in the state to represent the Republican party to power, notwithstanding the Teapot Dome Scandal.

Church And School At least two institutions in American society ought to be safe for parishioners — churches in the classroom. So-called upper society should be alien to the parson and the pedagogue. If there are any hell-hounds at Howard University, seeking to devour the daughters of parishioners, they must decamp with prodigious zeal. Every now and then some fool, infilated with bookish lore, attempts to transplant some Christian institution into a harem, but Howard University has been reasonably free of parishioners, employee, though not absolutely free. Traffic In Gossip Washington is a city of Negro culture surrounded by rumors. The traffic in gossip is second only to that in post-Volstead poisons. One must admit that a trader in gossip is not a person whose serious objection allowance must always be made for the pernicious practice of suspecting motives and lying most eloquently on people. Fifth conclusions are always dangerous in the District of Columbia. The instructors, thereafter, have a fair hearing but no charity. Walker Jordan The student who has had the hardihood to give a definite shape to the persistent rumors involving certain names, which even in the past have been daunting.

Because of his definite reception that has been written for university in recent years, he has been for its individuality, established precedents in the annual affair, not only by holding the prom, but also by the unique ideas women into their decorative schemes. He looks like an ornamental garden covered with blue indie work, which was in turn, covered with times through the years, down upon hovering butterflies. In the center of the garden there was a cluster of blossoming spring blooms brightly colored box, from which it sent forth melodious sirens to which the superfriends, awed in delight.

On Sunday, May 11th, he will address the N. A. A. C. P. in Providence, R. I., on "The Kingship of Citizenship." regarded with pussyfooting indifference. Every parent of a daughter at Howard will expect a thorough investigation and not merely the customary whitewash with the martyrdom of the accuser. The parents have a right to demand that they be made acquainted with every detail of the hearing, or trial, if the matter reaches that stage. Proof in such cases is usually hampered by technicalities and the human desire to protect the reputation of the faculty. The faculty is to expose the accusing female student to such brutal cross-questioning as to make most feminine excesses visible to light. The chlorus of "framme," "blackmailing," and the like, is no doubt rehearsing this very minute. It is only when persons handling the other of the female students at heart that legal tricks and ingenuity do not prevent justice from carrying. Older Professors There are professors at Howard who began service before some of the accused professors during their contract of swaddling clothes, and yet never there has been a word uttered to cast reflection upon the reputation of these accused professors during their contract of swaddling clothes, at least two of the accused have made a notorious record, during their comparison with short stay, their comparison with conduct towards the female students. There are professors at Howard were are close markers, almost cynical in their treatment of students, but they have never been "framed." There have been professors at Howard so one-sided on punctuality that doors were belled to bar tasty students and exercises not accepted one minute late, and yet such professors be never "framed."

Modern Student Granting, however, that the modern student has learned the game of "framing" and "blackmailing", he behoves the poor, pititable professor, uniquely hands to take the initiative in the matter of tracing the source of his treatment and not wait until the Discipline Committee secures the facts. While the frame was being fitted, the subject should have broken out and put the framer's to flight. Indignation should run high among the patrons of Howard University, osseous daughters study under the accused, but there is no need of hysteria. The complaint involves hardly more than a question of documentation that the condition is prevalent, even if true in the case of these men. Academic rough-necks are pretty certain to find their way into almost any faculty, but they do not have to remain. One rotten teacher can students' respect for the entire faculty. Howard's Good Name Howard's good name is at stake Disguising or hiding any guilt will not enhance Howard's influence. Except in cases where he exists at Howard' is the only policy that will bring correction. Indiscretions do not await the presence of bystanders. They are committed when they are not present. They will always make necessary the "girl's word against the man's word." If some girl's word is coming up frequently against the man's word, it is better to keep his word and depart. The senses of decent people are not easily tricked. The influence of a teacher can be darkened if the teacher is destroyed by suspicion of wrong-doing. Action Awaited The writer will await Howard's action before taking the public further. He will not be darkened by the instructors are and he knows a great deal more that may have to appear in these columns. He does not believe that student who first taught a girl to male students who may see fit to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, should be so intimidated that in future they should never suffer longer.

CONFERENCE APPOINTMENTS Page Four COMMITTEE IS NAMED ON THE DOUGLASS CASE Oust Independent MANY CHANGES IN STATE PASTORATES Bishop Throttles Resolutions For Equal Lay Representation WASHINGTON, D. C. — The 11th session of the Baltimore Conference A. M. E. Church adjourned Sunday afternoon. The status of the Rev. Frederick Douglass, a member of the conference and an independent church organized by him under the title of Cosmopolitan A. M. E. Church, Baltimore, was discussed in executive session, Thursday, and settled only after a bitter debate in which Bishop J. A. Johnson threw further discussion out of order and appointed a committee consisting of four presidents and four speakers to investigate and report at the next annual conference which is to meet at Ebenezer, Baltimore. Members of the Douglass Investigating Committee Are: PRESIDING ELDERS OF THE CONFERENCE W. H. Chew, D. G. Hill and C. H. Wesley. MINISTERS: C. E. Stewart, C. E. Stephan, J. R. Nelson, H. E. Walden, P. J. Jordan, R. A. Green, H. W. Thomas, M. The Rev. Mr. Douglass was bitterly assailed by pastors including the Rev. E. Q. Plummer, the Rev. Monroe H. Davis and the Rev. Samuel Giles, who condemned him for forming an independent congregation persons who were already members of Bethel A. M. E. Church, which he had one time pastored. Bishop Johnson told the conference that he was under the impression that Cosmopolitan Church was a member of the conference, that he had officiated at the dedication and signed a note of $4,000 on the purchase price. This note was turned down by John R. Hawkins, of the A. M. E. Finance Department, when he learned that the church was to be independent. Action on the Douglass case was precipitated when the Rev. Mr. Douglass said he had no report to make for his church when called upon by the bishop but would make personal report as a conference evangelist. His personal report was refused and Mr. Douglass was not present when appointments were handed out. His name was read out by Bishoo Johnson as being reassigned as a conference evangelist. Other charges Among the many changes in the appointments was that of the Rev. C. H. Wesley, presiding elder of the Pocomock District. Three other presiding elders were changed around. The Rev. D. G. Hill was sent from Ezeenzer, Washington, to become presiding elder of the Haceerstown District. The Rev. D. G. Hill was sent from Ezeenzer, Washington, to become presiding elder of the Haceerstown District. The Rev. D. G. Hill was sent from Ezeenzer, Washington, to become presiding elder of the Haceerstown District. The Rev. M. H. Davis, Baltimore, was transferred from Waters to St. John's. The Rev. R. E. Ford, former presiding elder, was made the pastor of Ebenezer Church, Washington. The Rev. Samuel Giles, formally at Salisbury, was given supernumerary relationship. Resolutions Throttled The resolutions for equal lay representation in the conferences of the church and a removal of the time limit were opposed by Bishop John Johnson. The Bishon took charge of the resolutions personally and refused to permit them to be discussed or voted on. CHURCH LOANS TOTALLED $38,642 Bishop Johnson declared $42,442 were reported by the church extension committee. Failure of some of the churches (to pay some of the loans during a long period, has resulted in the interest due exceeding the principal. Bishop Johnson declared, and read off a list of church including the Oxford, Md., principal; $140, interest; $205, Handy Church, Baltimore, principal; $400, Handy Church, Baltimore, principal; $400, Interest; $245, Sullibury, Md., principal; $260, interest; $612, Thomason Md., principal; $334, interest; $195, Waters, Baltimore, principal; $300, Waters, Baltimore, principal; $500, interest; $288, Bishopville, Md., principal; $300, interest; $288, Bishopville, Md., principal; $144, Interest; $202, Turner Memorial, Md.; $21,328, interest; $5,000, Dupont Heights, D. C., principal; $110, interest, Berlin, Md., principal; $300, interest; Rocks and Turner Memorial were listed on their debt this year. If these churches had borrowed money from some outside agencies, the Bishop declared, settlement would have been more prompt. Next Session to Ballimore.

M. E. Church Only One Disfranchising Laymen "Ministers of the gospel are called by God and they alone are held responsible for the administration of the church. The time has not yet come when we can give the laymen equal representation, declared the Rev. H. E. Walden, pastor of Ebenezer Church in the A. M. E. Minister's Meeting at Bethel Church, Monday morning. This statement by the Rev. Mr. Walden together with the declaration that he was opposed to the removal of the time limit upon pastors provoked a debate that lasted more than an hour. "The old way is good enough for me, declared the Rev. J. R. Nelson and the Rev. John Collins, and has served the church thus far and 10 be successful the ministers must continue to run the annual and general conferences." "The time will never come when the laymen will have equal representation with the clergy," declared the Rev. John Collins, presiding elder of the Benedictine Abbey of Balaam. Carl Murphy told the conference that the A. M. E. Church is the only large denomination which still moves its pastors around every five years and still refuses the laymen equal representation in the annual and general conferences. "It is enough to be disfranchised in the South, without coming into the Christian church to be stamped with a badge of inferiority and given the vote of only three-fourths of a man." "If we only want the laymen to be the pack horses and furnish the money while we run the churches to suit ourselves, we ought to let them know it," declared the Rev Joseph Jackson. If laymen ever sit down and let the pastors do the whole job, you'll note a change, he said. "We were all laymen before we were pastors," declared the Rev George F. Bragg. "If the laymen cannot be trusted to conduct the business of the church, neither can the pastor." "Laymen." he said, "in the early Philly Churches Philly Churches PHILADELPHIA, PA.

"Pastors should be glad to share their burdens with laymen," declared the Rev. W. H. Baker. "Qualified laymen are entering into the work of the church and the time of the pastor would be free to devote to the spiritual needs." he declared The Rev. R. A. Green declared he did not favor equal representation of the layman but he did favor a larger representation. Five To Three It was pointed out that the Baltimore conference will have five ministers and three laymen in the General Conference meeting in May in Chicago. The Philadelphia Conference will have 12 ministers and three laymen. The New Jersey Conference will have nine ministers and three laymen. General delegates to the next General Conference will outnumber the total number of lay delegates two to one. The Rev. W. H. Manokoo pledged himself to work night and day at the next General Conference for the equal representation plan. 925 Delegates The next General Conference, the Rev. W. Malenauer declared, will have 925 delegates. The next General Conference men are in the race for the bishopric out of which four are to be elected.

Bishop Hears Darrow Mr. Clarence Darrow following in the footsteps of his prototype Robert Ingersoll, has donated his time and talent to the legal defence of the weak without charge. Both men rank high in the list of America's compelling public speakers. Both attacked organized religion which promises so much and so little to bring about the real brotherhood of man. As Henry Ward Beecher did not hesitate to appear on the same platform with Ingersoll, Bishop John Hurlstone enjoyed enough Sunshine and Washington audience and listen to Mr. Darrow. Before the address started, he told the AFRO he would leave at 4:30 P. M. to keep another engagement. Bishop Hurst and Beecher never agreed with the religious news of Mr. Darrow and Ingersoll, but this did not prevent their admiration of the other fine qualities of these champions of humanity. On the question of religion the bishop and the lawyers are as far apart as the poles, but on the question of race equality and the value of the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People, they are in complete harmony and accord.

Pot Calls Kettle Thunder from the National Democratic Headquarters this week makes much of the botch Republicans have made in Nicaragua. They tell how more than a year ago, the president's special ambassador, Henry L. Stinson, governor-General of the Philippines, went Nicaragua and forced the Liberals to surrender their arms under pressure in the United States and retreated that peace had been restored in Nicaragua, and that only a few "bandits" with Sandino their lader were still at large. Nevertheless, American Marines were retained there under pretend of supervising the Nicaragua election fall, despite the refusal of the Nicaraguan progress to approve foreign supervision. Since Stinson "peacefully" surrendered Nicaragua has been practically doubled, twenty-one of their number have been killed, forty-five wounded and the money it has mounted to $1,500,000. Also, 202 of the Marines are known to have been killed and unknown additional number killed or wounded. Logic of this argument is enough to make a democratic out of any thotful person unless recalls that Woodrow Wilson's administration carried us into Haiti in 1915 at the expense of millions of dollars and the loss of 2500 civilians lives. When the Cloud-Kellog policy of intervention was announced, it was declared to be protection of American lives and property. Though Navy Departments have urged that Navy Departments furnish that with information as to American lives included, no information has been forthcoming to a single American in Nicaragua being in danger whatever. Harding and President Coolidge have kept marines in Haiti that the rape committed by weaker nations is a crime that be fastened exclusive; upon either party. Both are guilty. There is blood on the sides of democrats and republicans far too much for either to point the finger of scorn at other. Thunder from the National Democratic Headquarters this week makes much of the botch Republicans have made in Nicaragua. They tell how more than a year ago, the President's special ambassador Haiti L. Sinson, the Vice President of the Philippines, went to Nicaragua and forced the Liberals to surrender their arms under the force of Colonel Sinson returned to the United States and reported that peace had been restored in Nicaragua, and that only a few "bandits" with Sandino as their lader were still at large. There under the American Marines the Nicaragua election not fall, despite the refusal of the Nicaraguan Congress to approve foreign supervision. Since the Stinson "peace" was established, the number of Marines occupying Nicaragua has been practically doubled, twenty-one of their number have been killed, forty-five of their cost has mounted $1,500,000. Also, 202 of the marines are known to have been killed and an unknown additional number killed or wounded. Logic of this argument is enough to make a good democrat out of any thotful person—unless he recalls that Woodrow Wilson's administration carried us into Haiti in 1915 at the expenditure of millions of dollars and the loss of 2500 trees. When the Coolidge-Kellog policy of intervention was announced, it was declared to be for the protection of American lives and property. Although Members of Congress have urged that the State and Navy Departments furnish that body with information as to American lives impaired, no information has been forthcoming as to single American in Nicaragua being in any danger whatever. Harding and President Coolidge have kept the marines in Haiti, so that the rape committed upon these worker nations is a crime that cannot be fastened exclusive; upon either party. Both are guilty. There is blood on the hands of democrats and republicans far too much for either to point the finger of scorn at the other. "Figgers" The New York Urban League estimates the total red population of the boroughs at 239,800. For Orleans it is approximately 100,000 and for Battil-100,000. —New York World. Ordinarily the Urban League is an organization not only to be believed but also to be indicted and confined in it. It shows itself in the amateur class on air with the soap box orators who with-information declaim about the 15,000,000 red people in the United States." Certainassioned speakers have been known to carthis figure as far as 20,000,000. Baltimore's population in 1902 (U. S. Census) was 167,000 and New York's 167. Note the inconsistency. When, the N. U. Urban League cities population figures for it, uses the ancient 1920 census figures for Elmore and New Orleans, and then gives York the benefit of a 100,000 increase. Uncharitable, we can call for a "vow" as big as the benefit of New York up bypping on Baltimore and New Orleans. Moreover the N. Y.

For it it is approximately 100,000 and for Baltimore 100,000. —New York Word Ordinarily the Urban Urban an organization not only to be believed but also to be trusted and confided in. But on the question of estimation population, it shows itself in the amateur class on a par with the soap box orators who with half-information declaim about the 15,000,000 colored people in the United States." Certain impassioned speakers have been known to carry the baton of the question. Baltimore's population in 1902 (U. S. Census) was 108,322. New Orleans, 100,530, and New York's 153,467. Note the inconsistency. When the N. Y. Urban League cities population figures for 1928, it uses the ancient 1920 census figures for 1929, and the 1930 census gives New York the benefit of a 100,009 increase. Uncharitable, we call it, for a "town" as big and as wise New York to pull itself up by stepping on Baltimore and New Orleans. Moreover the N. Y.

To the Editor: One Mr. Lewis K. McMillan had an article published in Afro News and East Baltimore. According to the article, Mr. McMillan should have made a study of the things about which he wrote and he would have written something that would benefit the race. Although East Baltimore did not rank socially with other sections, it pays less money for court cases than other sections, which proves that East Baltimoreans act more within the laws of society than other sections. MELVIN ROY. Let Mr. Blair Take Care What Influence He Brings to Bear Upon The Bible Says This Reader. To the Editor: I note in your issue of April 21st that Mr. Blair has included me among his critics for a further exposition of Bible contradictions. He has written a book read by the author to take God's word and prove that he. If Mr. Blair will read the preceding verses of 2 Thes. 2:11, he will find that it is not God who does the work of salvation, but a man whose ence emanating from satan, producing the strong delusive on account of umbelief. The same applies to the lying prophets of (1 Kings 22:31). He will find that the prophets of (1 Kings 22:31) afflicted with that same condition of mind. I note in your issue of April, 21st that Mr. Blair has come me among his critics for a further exposition of Bible contradictions. He has ever over paused himself, seeking to take God into his hands. Mr. Blair will read the preceding verses of 2 Thess. 2:11; he will find that it is not God who does the lying, but His permission of an evil influence emanating from satan, producing the strong delusive on account of unbelief. The same apologetic reasoning in a nutshell Mr. Blair seems to have become afflicted with that same condition of mind. He also asks that some Christian come forth with some old legendary explanation or eye of faith that the Bible is not a book of fables but a record of facts revealing to the truth seeker God's plan for humanity's salvation. Secondly, no Christian would so bellittle his faith in God's word to look among fables for an answer of what influence he brings to bear upon God's word. 1 Cor. 1:13 to 21. 27. 28. He also asks that some Christian come forth with some old legendary explanation or eye of faith answer. The first is an impossibility because the Bible is not a book, but a record of facts revealing to the truth seeker God's plan for humanity's salvation. Secondly, no Christian would so belittle his faith in God's word to look among fables for an answer of what he believes he can take care of what influence he brings to bear upon God's word. 1 Cor. 1:13 to 21. 27. 28.

I wish to call your attention to the fact that my people throughout the entire country classify and defend the principal of Uskegue Institute as a proper racial and commendable language is obliterated. Not Negro. Over ninety per cent of my people are descendants of either the white race or of the Indian or race or of both races, and less than ten per cent are unmixed and is obviously a distortion of our racial design.

Hoover's Use Of Word Negro Gets Him In Dutch With New Orleans Reader. To the Editor: The letter, sending letter has been sent to Herbert Hoover, candidate for U. S. President: — Sir—I have noted with deep regret that in a letter to the principal of Tuskegee Institute you referred to the non-white population of the United States as of "the Negro race." In fact that my people throughout the entire country classify themselves as colored and that their proper racial and legal momenclature is colored and not Negro. Over ninety per cent of my people are descendants with white race or race of American origin, and more than ten per cent are of unmixed African blood.

And with the effect is won- New York is something more than another big city. It is something more than clouds of office and going away into the air. New York is something more than plying of Atlanta, even Norfolk, Baltimore, Philadelphia. It is different: it is unique. As a city, New York lives in New York the more it grows upon him. A former Virginian, now a "native New Yorker" was complaining to me down in Virginia, but it was so quiet, and that he had to hasten back to New York so as to enjoy some real sleep.

Almost to a man the throne were good sports. The players wore red jerseys welded the good-humored mass into a unit. At the close of the game speeding, surging crowds that swept on to the gates were a perfect display of team spirit, sweeping tides. Once more I thanked God for New Year's Sunday was one of those dreary days when the feelings are nearest the surface. The choir sang in the stands, not the punishing voices of a few good-intentioned bad singers—but scores of musical voices, singing in a building made for holding and echoing the mind was that of a cooler,爽滑 singer. 200 Vested Singers Just a few hours later more than the dressed singers marched into the S.

New York is a place where big to on. Just a few hours later more than two hundred people gathered in Salem M. E. Church literally flooding it with Salem M. E. Church literally flooding it with an expression of sympathy for and admiration of the musician, who has been laid low by sickness. The even such an expression had volume and immensity. New York is a place where big things Everybody At Home New York has given the lie to the claim of the little mean. South, that sameness in racial stock is a badge of superiority and the surress of a bad man. South, that the state of mind here is that human: our travelers that peoples, differing so broadly in family and cultural back-ground, can become so much alike and so sensitive to one another. The simplest jest on the part of a sub-way passenger can set a long train loaded with absolute strangers. In the midst of an early evening rush a guard neglected to open all the doors. As a consequence a few passengers were taken to the next door, and the guard upon himself the job of "getting the guard told." Why didn't you open all the doors?" "I did!" was the sharp reply. "No you didn't! This door was never opened and we couldn't get out." "Well, you can't get out?" "The door was closed." DUMBNESS! Almost every one of the thousand strangers wereicked instantly and laughed together. Pressed together because of the railway compagny, the language of good nature, it is seldom that one's apologies and apologies are not expected. At cabbages frequented by all the races, strange, love-mad partners but into each other, they smile, get set and go again. The New Yorker soon finds him, honeysuckle on the city's crowd—so long as he is in New York. There is an intelligence in the air of New York which settles upon the minds of the people, and without being made reasonably intelligent, Barbers, taxi cab drivers, porters, "hustlers" professional men: they are different from their brothers in many towns and cities: competition, pressure, with varied interests, the presence of numerous schools, the presence of numbers of the country's leading lights; these are among the reasons. A young man, only a few years from blackest College, is called to sermons with Fosdick's. Said he, "Rev. X deals with local questions. We were not to see him you would still know readily that he is a Negro. You would not know that he and interests are so broad and colorless." Our friend has been hearing Fosdick over the radio. Though a raw country youth, New York has had an effect upon him that hide-bound schools and less class" in shut in town could not hope to have. Of course there are cranks in New York, a thinking now of a bearded-chinned man, a man who is an am a human engineer." Long coats dressed fronts, heavy canes are more to the w. For New York has its share of goats, sheep, and cattle. The movement and cunning acts are not a mat of natural youth. But Oh how pathetic look upon dim old canodies that have been worn. Old Age Is Unsurely have its start among New Yorker and is too great. Of course there are cranks in New York. I am thinking now of a bearded-chin figure. The lady has the question about how I "am a human engineer." Long coats, full-dressed fronts, heavy canes are more than a few. For New York has its share of goats. Everybody is young. New York is young and a monopoly on nature's acts. But Oh how pathetic it is to look upon dim old candles that have been burnt up. Government Old Age Insurance will pose its start among New Yorkers. The grind is too great. Back To Nature A trip to New York is a trip back to nature. In spite of all else her people live comparative natural lives. The more human one is, the more grasses and trees grow. Grasses, immense open space, animals, waters, play and recreation. The New York enjoys much-more than the rustic villager. There is a reason that theaken the lead in building the small number of Noaces who are beginning to awake to the new day. A trip to New York is a trip back to nature.

They Are Heard And Seen Dear Lino: "Day by Day" Sub Deb is "Heard and Seen in Baltimore" and how! —Bill Flood Nelson, (Dem., Mo.) Discusses Flood Relief—Congressional Records The argument has been made subtle and weak as it seems, that these people ought to move out of the Mississippi Valley) and that "anyway, most of them are Negroes." Saving of human life, in great humanitarian undertakings, we know no color line. Some day in this Capital City, with its many monuments, I hope to see erected one to the memory of the "black mammy" of the South, to one who was more of a slave. I may be of bronze or marble, but it can not give expression to the spirituals and lullaby songs of those faithful old souls. (Applause.) In connection with the flood come many human interest stories. This is one: After the waters had receded in one stricken city, there was an old man with a boss, who his shoulder. "Boss, does you think that's any moth dangal of flood heat?" he asked. On being assured that there was none unless another man had been killed, he carefully opened the bag and released an old rabbit. "Ole Mr. Rabbit, him and me done ride all night on de sage log in de rivah and I promise him that if de good Lord save me I she look ater him." But, after all the picture that stands out strongest in my mind is that of the optimism, hope, and perseverance of a man with characteristic spirit said, "No, sah; we were merely ovalpowered." The Negro's Plow (George Padmore in N. Y. Daily Worker) A group of Negroes, former members of the British West India regiment, have organized an association in New York known as the West Negroes, a group of African-American Sir Harry Armstrong, British consul in New York. The association held a ceremony of presenting the colors on April 15. It is difficult to see how these Negroes can remember their status as an oppressed racial group and exploited colonial people with this militaristic display. These men should know that they were the victims of the last colonial imperialist war. They should ask themselves why they were in the West Indies or America. their illusions about capitalist governments. Sir Harry Armstrong is one of the leaders and it is part of his diplomatic role to patronize and hobnob with colonial Negroes and encourage them to promote military organizations in the Caribbean, and in the next imperialist war. Negroes have nothing to gain in capitalist wars. Their place is by the side of the workers and the oppressed colonial people. Equal Rights In The A. M. E. Church W. H. S. In The Young Allenite Equal law representation in the General Conference A. M. E. Church; an equal number of laymen on the Boards—these questions are like bumble-bees in the colars of some people. And a layman on the Episcopal Committee mases on sick unto death. The laymen are willing, perfectly willing, to leave the spiritual leadership of the church to the consecrated minister of a minister's job. But serving tables, collecting money, and directing the temporal affairs of the church is the laymen's job. It is his job in the place of the minister, the annual conferences and in the General Conference. You may argue against giving laymen these privileges until you lose your voice, and the church will be a fridgid condition, and the prescher will feel the cold air circulating. Reading an annual report of the executive committee of publication of the Presbyterian Church, we noticed that eighteen members—nine ministers and nine laymen, three of the laymen being women. What's wrong with that? Nothing on earth. And the prescher is the Church demand certain privileges, somebody gets shaky. Drunken Marine (Clement Wood in the Crisis) Midwav of the parked Champs de Mars in Port-au-Prince, stretching from the government to the residented seaward-gazing rim of the green space, stands an impressive iron statue of Dessalines, iron sword lifted against the sea, and a legend is whispered that, when the statue lowers its sword, this will be the signal for the natives to uprise and massacre all of the whites. The statue of Dessalines, the of the American Occupation know it, and remember it. Two nights before we reached Port-au-Prince, Martine returned through the great marvel the park, halted before the statue of the librator. He fell to his knees, aimed his pistol, emplied his chambers, and aimed his sword down at me; the Marine explained the next day. *THE AFFAIR/ CARRIES MOKE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY.*—EURYA, Gordon. 1827. Survey. Our Mr. Snoodlezfritz is expected this week to accept the nomination to run for President on the Anti-Labour Party, a coalition of gentlemen representing the Hobbes Convention which met recently in Washington, D.C. Mr. Snoodlezfritz expressed his surprise that this signal nomor was conceived as a compliment that after searching the country he was that to be the laziest man to be found and is therefore best fitted to be the standard bearer of the party. He photo shows Mr. Snoodlezfritz in his office busy running. The adjoining photo shows Mr. Snoozlefritz in his office busy trying out a program to be handed anything through the day. The pose is not characteristic, however, because he immediately rapher snapped him just as he removed his feet from the room. That a party split result from Mr. Snoozlefritz's acceptance was intimated when Mr. Sassafras Suds, who holds the long distance slitting machine, announced that he had contributed the Anti-Labor Party than Snoozlefritz and therefore should have been chosen. Furthermore, he declares that he is intended to receive Snoozlefritz botted the party in 1923 and worked for three months on the state roads of North Carolina. Again in 1926 his record was marred when he outgrew it for a dentist for which he received pay. Mr. Sniooziefrz looks upon this as malicious attempt to cast reflection on his sweetness character. The state man mudsliding, "Mr. Sudds knows that I worked on that read just for a point, and I have not solled my hands with honest labor since", he said. "Yes," replied Sudds heatedly, "that point was the point of a saved-foot shotgun in the hands of the depot, and he has done more loading to the square inch than any man his size and weight, but this is not true, and I can prove it." Am a direct descendant of the caribou and there hasn't any work done in my family for seven generations. When the Puritans landed on Plymouth Rock, my forefather was too lazy to get off the caribou. My grandfather was the champion whistler of Sussex County, Virginia, and the pile of shavings he cut while loading in front of the country store to his progress in shufflessness. The comfight primary is expected to be one of the bittest ever witnessed a campaign will be waged by both sides if they can get somebody to furnish the energy. Mr. Snoozefritz is a strong forceful opponent of the campaign from Ham Lincoln. As a boy he stood near employment agencies and saw innocent women and children given jobs and sales. We saw a chance to "mine" for the job. "A house divided against itself cannot long endure," he declared, "America cannot survive part capital and part labor. Work, the national strength, is a cause against organized society and should be abolished." I Snoozefritz is elected and wipes Wall Street, John D. Rockefeller and others who have profited by this damnable institution are expected to leave the Union, and America will be thrown into another Silver War. "We will whip them into submission, declares Snoozefritz with confidence, so the lappers from the north sing as they swing with martial tread to the defense of the nation's capital. We will declare Snoozefritz Fifty Thousand Strings." Snoozefritz and Sassafras will tour the country appearing on the same platform debating the Trial. The All Men Are Created Lazy and Entitled To Remain So Regardless Of Race, Creed Or Color. Both will argue on the same platform. Picture to the right shows Mr. Sunds making a strong appeal for campaign funder. He makes a manner and taking personality selom and in a refusal. He promises to put upholstered benches in all city parks and make the awful for cops to smack sleeping hobos on the feet with their night sticks. He will advocate the endowment of Flop House to be maintained in oil scandals. He will distribute not soup at the White House and people who say, 'where ya workin'? However, banking on his work of food relief to carry the country, but the Ant-Lab party is expecting its infrastructure into office. The fight is on and may the worst man win.

Union Miners Drink A Bitter Cup It might not have been front page news, but undoubtedly one of the most far reaching meetings of the nation's governing gathering of 1,100 courageous miners who answered a call of the Save the Union Conference of the United States of America, held in Pittsburgh recently. In a life and death struggle thousands of miners are fighting with their backs against the wall of coal mining, losing fight against the coal barons. Added to their woes of hunger and discouragement, it must have been a bitter cup for them to learn that they were being gagged the whirlwind of race prejudice sown years ago when they barred colored miners. "You have been willing to push us down and you have done it, too. But you have held yourselves down at the same time," said this race organizer with tears and wild applause. From that on the keynote of the conference was to seek some way to improve white and colored inmates, and as one white miner put it, so there will be no more "niggers," "wops" and no "kikes" but just "workers." The leadership of John W. Lewis the miners have become the most disaffected union in the American Federation of Labor and the National Association strike of the United Mine Workers in 1922. At the present time the coal owners have them almost to the knockout place and more than 100,000 miners hotels with many receiving merely the $1 per week union relief for adults and 25 cents for children. Win Or Lose? Win or lose, when this struggle is over, the attitude of white mine organization to their colored brother, for most of their failure to win the strike can be traced to their racial discrimination when times were good. It is a bitter cup, but one which unless the American Federation of Labor adopts a more militant bat- tle, it will remain in final discrimination in its ranks. Chicago Voters Take Their Ride The Negro group would have nothing to gain in fostering a situation where all colored men voted colored and all white men voted white.

Vanderbilt Published by Harper and Brothers, 40 32rd St. N. Y. C. Price $2.50 Toussaint "the opener" Dessaline, "the liberator", and Cristophe, the first king of Haiti, are the thrilling figures in this new book by the author of "Tom Tom". Toussaint is under the heel of the United States mercenary once says Vandercook. He was a black man corn a sash, but under him the city of the Cape was tombbed by the king presented a different picture. There was a theater in the Cape and there were schools, no one had indolent in Haiti; for indolence was tombbed by the king. Factories were busy and the ships were filled with foreign ships The great plains between were covered with sugar fields, the finest in the world, whose area measured 100 acres. Along the roads out of the town paved evenly with grating white stones were plantations owned by Negroes, who bore with dignity the titles of duke and baron and count. He was a kingdom that during its life of ranked in the opinion of Europe with the most forceful of the new world powers. There were two men of transference greatness then, the king of Haiti, Henry Cristeine, who man who had defeated him in war. How the ex-slave with the aid of Dessalines and Toussaint, the open country, to be king and how he ruled his kingdom, the burden of this striking narrative. Some of the pictures in this book will always remain immortal, for example, Toussaint, at 50 a coachman, was destined later in life to become the greatest soldier of the Negro race. Then Dessalines, who as he is about to sit down to a banquet with French accents, received secret word from the banquet table to the banquet table roaring like a bull and in five great skrines reached the further end leaving a wave smashed glasses and shattered silver. He was tied just outside the window he was in the saddle with a window frame around his neck, disappearing down the road and crying. There is a picture of King Henry decreeing the hours of labor from daylight to eight o'clock from nine till 12, then from 3 until nightfall for every man in the kingdom. To the king of an English admiral that he was making state Henry retreated. "While I live I shall try to build pride and build it so that white man can understand. I will teach pride if my master breaks every back in my kingdom." Thirty thousand men passed in review before a visiting English admiral uniform. Every man in the procession was six feet tall, all full blooded blacks marcheing with precision. But King Cristophe had taken the advice of the European notion that a king's name should also have treated the admiral to 30 views of the same 1,000 men. As soon as they got past the reviewing stand they turned aside and changed their uniforms to march back. Then there is the last marchee picture. King Henry's subjects are in rebellion against the work lass, marching on the capitals. For some time they paralyzed except for his head and his arms, yet he summoned his arm, and called for his horse. The animal came to a stand ten feet tall, threw his guard turned to the king. He swept them away with his arms. He pushed off the robe that covered his lap. King Henry looked straight before him. He stood erect and in reaction strides, he reached the white One hand went to its mane and the other to the saddle. He began little to bap up. While the court and arm looked home, slumped like an empty bag, slumped down until he lay under the horse with his arms outstretched and his face auctioned the ear. His strength so miraculously summoned for the instant had gone out of him. The king was deserter by his army and by his court, so that the king for some moment entered the palace that night. But they found a dead king, who killed himself with a golden bullet he had saved for just that purpose. Poem This Week LOVE—THE MASTER By Ronald B. Cliffon Love is the master Of every hate and tear; Love his life, the beauty; Love makes all men dear; Love is the liberator Of the downcast slaves; And caims the white-capped wave Love is the light that warms The soil, that plants may grow; Love is the light that guides Everywhere you go. He Protests (James Weldon Johnson in the "Crisis") I wish to protest also against the use of the word "aramerican" in a derisive and burlesque sense. I have a somewhat personal opinion that the word because I was, I think the first American writer to use the term, I was in the preface to "The Book of America" by the poet, designate in a general way the poets of colored blood of North America. South America and the West Indies. Sir Harry Johnson used it in the same sense. It is a needed term and besides is practical and scientifically correct. It ought not to be degraded, being "aramerican" and "dehumanized" "dilute" and "many words for the sake of "smart Aaron" writing. | Saturday; April 28, 1928 Call VE rnon 6016 ee aa ._ ag rosenwald Plans Expansion 0D. 6.

Threats of divorce by the wife of Ralston, the broker, a poor, dear, sweet thing told that her voice is miserable, and his own sheba voice is more pleasant, well, Bob learns that a lie, while an abomination before the Lord, is very desirable in getting along with humans. Given the leading role in the play, Carlton Moss shed up to good advantage, but his work was a trifle overshadowed by that of John Gundy, as the stock broker. Gundy led his fellow male theplans in the matter of makeup. He was a middle-class man, snacking more of college youths than young dealers in finance. Bishop Eddie Carroll Edward Carroll was the bishop. Imagine the diminutive Eddie assuming the dignity of a prelate, and it is almost certain that he was cast as an Episcopalian, good for wood as Joseph Bacon, the role of the sarcastic and slightly pugnacious Van Dusen, and that with something of an advanced degree of maturity. Among the feminine characters Bernice Carter was applauded for her work. Lillian Dotson was effective as the daughter of Ralston and the mother of the mother, Dorothy Mitchell Ruth Washington and Elaine Coulbourne were cast in the atmosphere.

Jackson, cornet; Ambrose Bretta Gundy, cornet; Tazweil violins; Bretta Gundy, cornet; and George Paice, saxophone. The comedy was under direction of S. Randolph Edmunds of the English School, as assistant. The audience was largely composed of college students.

Only well-fed critics and theatre-goers who have invested commercially inined theatre managers find fault with theatrical folk. Honoring "Flo" Mills The Florence Mills Association, according to the papers, is to have a benefit staged in Chicago at the new Bloody Boys' School (Bojangles' Robinson at the helm) The organization, it will be remembered, was formed to perpetuate the memory of the late "Blackbird" erect a home for race actors, and act general stimulus for the profession. The announcement of the benefit scheduled for May 3 brings to mind the difficulty which the association faces in promoting a school which might be considered even a fair start. Like most other unorganized workers of the race, the theatrical group needs to promote the school not to honor Miss Mills, who left a monument in the minds of thousands. Bojangles' has promoted benefits in every city where he found it practicable. Whether the movement ever gets beyond maintaining an office will be decided within the next two years, for the public is quick to forgo the idea and have to hand it to Bill—he's interested in putting the idea over.

New State Record Of 215 Feet In Baseball Throw Is Set Up Thirteen county records were broken, two equalled, and three new state records made, as the Kent and Queen Anne's county athletes on Monday and Tuesday finished their eliminations for the Eastern Shore meet to be held at Princess Anne, Saturday. To Kent County went the honor of setting up eight of these new marks and equalling two while the county also fixed existing local records. While most of the county records broken failed to approach the state marks, one marked the county's first record of Chestertown (Garnet), winner of the meet, jumped 7 feet, 7 inches, in the standing broad jump, exceeding the record held by the county.

TEAM Ewing's All-Stars Arrived At Park Hour After Game Time EWING CHARGES FRAUD Declaring that George Rossiter and Ben Taylor, owner and manager, respectively, "gipped his feet on the ground" here Easter Sunday, Henry Bozzle, owner and manager of Bucklew's kettle, tested to the AFRO-AMERICAN, asserts that the local team played him a "dirty trick." An excerpt from Bozzle's letter states: "We were at their park and had a guarantee of $200 with the onion of 35% of the gross. Taylor and Rossiter cut it down to play a doubleheader. I have a letter and telegram from Taylor calling for one game...I wrote Taylor but neither one has answered." Taylor Replies Interviewed on the matter, Taylor said, "We had no contract with the Schenectady team, our only correspondence with the telegram. I am not sure that if mentioned a doubleheader in my correspondence with the All-Stars, but whether I did or not Ewing knew that I would be playing against the sey" Ridgely, former Sox players, that the Black Sox always play a doubleheader on Sunday. "We always followed the rule of being at the park an hour before game time. Ewing's team arrived at the park after 3 o'clock, leaving their money refunded and others, having had their money returned, were leaving the park for home, thinking that there would be no people. These people, leaving the park told others on the way that there was no game and attendance, Ewing was going to play but one game. Ewing and his team should have been in the park not later than 2 o'clock if they wanted to get their full guard No Guarantee If Late "No team is going to get full guarantee if late. The Sox have been cut' for being late, and the lateness is a big part of ours. We gave them 35% of the gross, which amounted to $108. That amount is all that we felt justified in giving them under the circumstances. We did what an other club would have done."

Powell made a notable showing shortstop, run by Hamlette in the second inning put Union in the lead which she never lost. Bryant, the Lincoln pitcher, won the game, but his curves were soon knocked to the outfielders. Luminaries for Lincoln were: Temp- Lamar and Jackson; and for Uni- don, Hamlette, Allen, Moore and Robinson.

McNair's hitting should also eliminate some of the shugging worries of Manager DeMoss. Siearcres, who has fled his old home in the infield, DeMoss, Harding and Johnson should be hard to beat.

Complicates Progress Of Organized Baseball All Over Country By BILL GIBSON Although many people may not think so, nor possibly care, the collapse of the Eastern League is going to have a far reaching effect. A child of Edward Bolden, Hildale pilot, and spasmodically fed by the owners of seven clubs, the Eastern League always remained rather a puny thing, never developing the robustness and virility of its relative, the National League. The league led a sort of see-saw existence, assuming an ascendancy or soaring to minor heights on the wind of certain powers behind the throne who dictate in large measure the policies of its administration. Strong Nathaniel C. Strong, Yiddish financier, pointed out the outstanding obstacle the program of organized Eastern baseball and with his withdrawal, following closely upon that of Colonel Jacob Strothers, Harrisburg, the wiseacre point to the greater progress and less squabbling. Soon after the Royal Giants' check signer had deserted the ranks of the team, the table Edward withdrew its franchise and awarded its intent to roam the fields of independent baseball. How About Schedules? Now no league to guide them the several teams about to arrange some sort of a presentable schedule. That the making of schedules is going to no easy task, the managers are many more moons. The Black Sox are just as near having a schedule that is 15 a schedule now, as they were last October and February. The managers of going South for even a short training period, practice here, because of the unseasonable weather, has been imposed in Virginia. The Bachrachs and Hilldale have been getting in some good licks down in Virginia and the Carolinas and Georgia, before their major games start, if any. The other clubs, like the Sox, have been depending on good atmospheric conditions at home to give break at getting in some practice. In this writer's opinion one of the hardest jobs of managers this season has been to have had a number of dissatisfied players within their ranks, will be the problem of keeping the players in the league, and an organization to enforce discipline. Conditions, bad enough when there was even a gesture of a league, stand the chance of becoming even worse, and players under control is concerned. Players Side Of It Downtrodden and much mistreated players, as well as the players guilty of insubordination and non-cooperativeness, will have an opportunity to make more decisions. While the prosecution will probably found on some form of disciplined organization, it will not have even the small amount of power that the deceased league had in intervening from jumping their contracts and seeking greener pastures. **W- Predict** What we foresee is that bad barbed services to be obtained may gain for various players' services. by offering the desired player more "kale". We already know of players right now who are ready to jump at the first jittery looking offer that comes their way. Of course there will be an upper limit to this bidding as no club would be able to make money with too many high-priced players on its salary list. Still managers who have been putting on a big front but who have been bulldozing their players and tricking the public into believing that they have money than they really have will be faced with the possibility of losing their best men, thereby losing their whole team. No one is going pay good cash to see a bunch of The collapse of the Eastern League further eliminates the series at the level of the National League, the representatives of the East and West. This may or may not be regretted by the players, particularly those who played the series last year and didn't play in the league. That representatives of the East will play some member teams of the National League during the playing season, and not only that any of the Eastern League will overrun their coffers as a result. The Saturday and Sunday games will still continue to be the attraction, and the curry of scheduling games with worldwide attractions this season is going to be complicated to such an extent that only mediocre attractions will be secured the greater part of the time. The New York and Brooklyn teams are "in free" so to speak and Hillary Clinton is the only one but the remaining teams, we feel are really going to have to scuffle to keep their players and habituate them. And the fact is, Hillary Here's hoping that they may, in the manner of the Sox,arner enough from their end-of-the-season series to make up for the inefficiency. And this is no gloomy creep, but out only the facts of the facts. THE AFRO CARRIES MORE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY."—Eugene Gordon, 1927 Burley. G. SUN S: EASTERN LEAGUE DEAD OR FOOLING?

Severity-Six Stats A brilliant team, the fastest ever start, and numbering 76 rattles out of one hundred entries, in under way, when exactly at 2:30 P.M. the gun of Starter "Tom" Jones jams, sending them on their way. Boy Lightfoot, running under the tines of Howard University, took it himself to set the pace for the names, and a grunting pace he did. Lightfoot's pace was more on the order of one that would be extinguished. The race he had outdistanced his best rival by two city blocks. Lightfoot Sets Pace The following sets trace the last step: walking stride led the way,勾摈ing the lead only as the runner reached Linden and North avenues. Lee, who had been taking jogging along comfortably in the street, strides as the strain of the terrace pace began to tell on Lightfoot and cased ahead of Robinson, of whom he had closed on Lightfoot, as he walked along Guilford avenues post. Running the distance almost neck neck with Lightfoot from Mosher avenue at Linden and south avenues again to relinquish the lead, lightfoot by the time the runners had reached McMeen and streets, had dropped back Bell Falters Alfred Bell, Morgan College star, was in third position as the runners neared Biddle and Guillord, who to tire, dropping back almost 100 yards. He reached Lavale and McCullough he was running in sixth position, but a brilliant spurt by Earl Campbell, of the Decatur A. G. showdown, back into seventh place as the runner, Robinson of Union, exerting himself to the last touch, in a desperate attempt to finish the first position, and have the reserve strength that he had and had to content himself during place. He shook off Bell and had to forge ahead of John Carroll. John Carroll, less than three weeks of a sick bed, showed at the start of the race that he was not in the pioneer that he has been in, in marathon races. Running in this position on the lane at Biddle and Eden, seeped into three place as they attacked it. Royal and Guilford avail- ance in fifth position at Bison and North, in fifth position at ounce of energy that he could carroll edged into third place when runners passed at McMee- t and North streets and the tried hard was the distance that separated him from Bison. He was completely ex- hausted at the finish. Robert Run, Carroll's running mate, who has twice finished second and fourth in the race, was position as the field this way up to finish in tenth place, performance just insured his other medal. He swept Smith Morgan, Field of Arnstrom High School and Wade Carter of Arnstrom High School with remarkable form. Finkin, wearing Number 14 for the Celtics, dropped back from the one position as the runners passed on the one quarter mark to 14th position at the quarter mark.

Many Reversals Wade Carter, who last year was the sixth to finish, came in eleventh position, while Leeroy Clay, Baltimore and Duncan Junior High 20th position. One of the greatest reversals of form was that of Manuel Mello, of Dunbar Junior High School, who finishing tenth last year, dropped into 33rd position this year. Nephew Of Coach Lee, the winner of the race, is a nephew of Lawrence Lee, coach at Armstrongs, and had prepared him for the race. He overcame a overhill four and a quarter mile course in Anacostia. His performance was spectacular in that he exceeded all expectations in being the fastest in the thereby winning the medal offered for that performance in addition to receiving the gold medal from the winner of the wet course 15 4-5 seconds better than the time set last year under ideal weather conditions, makes his performance all the more remarkable. Team Rivalry Close Frank Mitchell, of Lincoln University, who finished fourth last year, entered his name for the race but did not put in his appearance. As well as the primary team competition was close, particularly among the first four teams to finish. Thousands of spectators crowded all the course, despite the inclement weather, and the runners were greeted with thunderous applause as they swept down the human lane at the tape. A large squad of police officers, including the team's own, were no traffic casualties. Rain fell in torrents after the race. Seventy four of the 76 starters finished. All trophies, with the exception of the AFRO-AMERICAN gold medal were awarded from the stage of the Regent Theatre, Saturday night as a large audience cheerful.

Give them the same thoughtful care that you give to your garden—and the choice of extra Koes ter richness will be inevitable. KOESTER'S IS A MOTHER'S DUTY! Saturday, April 28, 1928 CHAPTER XXII The worst came to the worst. Lieb became to ill even to work. Luana had to nurse him, tend him, besides support him. She had said that she would not provide him with drugs, but a week of night, form of treatment, will be of hearing his mansor of seeing his nervous spasms, of listening to his pleas had changed her mind for her. It was only a mercy now to give him the indulgence he craved. So he got him what he needed, but in so doing she became a woman of the underworld, a slipping shadow that darted in and out of dives, a watchful shadow who avoided the sight of a gendarme. Coachman she learned all the lanes of traffic. There was a grocery purveyor here, in this cobbled-stone street, whose loaves of bread hid the precious pellets; and such such a corner was on a newspaper dealer. Since these were encounters, since they all con- There was one open way, but it was into the street that she always thought of as the Street of Horrors. It was a narrow street, perpetually twilight, a street shut off from all Paris, Paris, Paris, Paris, where the gendarmes did not bother to go so long as themates of that place did not bother others. It was a street of the deepest, blackest, most unvarnished underworld, where the gendarmes even went to over their sores from public gaze, where those under the influence of drink or drugs grazed on the steps or in the gutter, unshamed to be kicked aside by the shuffling shoes of those who passed. But others one could buy drugs over the counters of the stores, as one could buy sugar, by simply paying the price. No mysterious signs, no introductions were necessary. Only the cash. Reason—the police of Paris recognized this place as a segregated district and no attempt was made to break them—the occupants would pollute the airs. Liana learned to dart in here when the police on the outside were especially vigilant, or when the supply of the other vendors was low, making the price too high for her to pay. She loathed the place—this Street of Horrors. She would never go into it until all other attempts failed to secure drugs for relieving Lieb. Then, only she descend to its murky depths, skirt around its hideous populace, slip to the accustomed store, put down her trane and snatch the she would take deep breaths to clean her lungs of its air. She often wondered why she did this thing, why she made of herself an outcast, a lawbreaker. Time and gain she vowed she would run no more of Lieb's terrific errands. But Summer and fall passed, each day beating against her bruised body with its iron-clad feet. Working and toiling and slaving, she looked for no end, hoped for no change. Hold it in mind that she had to do, and that without hope of salvation. One day was much like another in his misery, bright days, gloomy days, snow or rain. it was all the same to Luana. All days were equally exhausting in their tasks, all monotonous, all fillet with the presence of fire. So she was hardly aware of the criving rain that soaked her coat and beat her hat into a pulp one afternoon as she dragged her sore feet home from the Market Place. The familiar foreboding seized her as she mounted the steps. She paused moment before pushing open the door. She opened it. He was there. Hunched over by the window, his knife like face cutting a streak of whiteness in the dusk, for darkness came early to the garret room of this Re. "How are you, Lieb?" she asked as she dumped her parcels on the table. He jerked around at the sound of her voice, batted the lids of his eyes. His eyes bore her through, beady bright eyes, like a snake's. The moment nostrils twitched spasmodically then he jerked his head in a nod. Call Vernon 6016 That was his greeting. That would be all. Luana squirmed out of her soggy coat, tried to twist her sorpy hat into some semblance of shape. It was hopeless, but what did it matter? She opened the parcels, frowned. What could she make out of odds and ends of vegetables? She picked red carrots, a couple of onions? She picked nothing but soup. And poor soup at that, but it was the best they could buy when one indulged such expensiveastes as morphine. She glancedindividually at Hali, who sat still and quiet except for a convulsive twist, now and then. When the soup was finished she called Lieb, but he still stared out of the window, so she took his bowl and set it on the sill. She went back to the table and sipped hers. Darkness gathered her up in it shadows. Liebertin's soup was untouched so she held a spoonful to his lips and he swallowed once, then motioned her away. Luana was puzzled. He had waited for two days. What could it mean? "An egg, maybe, Lieb?" she coaxed a repulsive shudder from Lieb, "No," he mouthed. It was quite dark now, so she put on her damp clothes and slipped out. She tried the tobacco shop first, but as she entered a man followed her. The proprietor's lips tightened and his epes narrowed. To her request for cigarettes, he gave her just that—nothing more. At the corner stand, the news vended as the same thing. A customer alighted on the floor and the proprietors became very caggy. "What's the matter" she whispered to the woman of the newspaper klosk. The woman hissed between motionless lips. It was the police again. All suspected dispensers of the drug were under surveillance, there would be no more selling until the warmes eased their watchfulness. If caught, they would get stiff sentences. Luana was frightened. Luana knew that Lieb could not stand a protracted withdrawal of the drug. Nothing remained but the nameless street. Lord, how she hated to go there. As she started to turn cobblestones, cobblestones short as though she had been reinined in. On each corner stood a gondarme. Which meant that she could nto go in. Or, if she went in that she could not come out. She dutti had. Half had because she was denied the ordeal of going into the Street of Horrors, half frightened because of Lieb, she went home. Liebertini arose eagerly when she entered: Luana told him. Couldn't do it, Lieb. Out of luck. Do it. She dared not tell him how serious things were. He ran his fingers over her, dipped in every pocket, searching, unwilling to believe. Finally he gave in, and slumped back in his chair. Her she heard him arise and put on his coat and start out, but he collapsed near the door and she pulled him back to the bed. The next day and the next it was the same. Furious glances from the officers, constant escort of detectives and empty handed to Lieb at night. The fourth day it was with forebading that she turned home. How much longer could Lieb stand it? His sufferings of the past night rang in her ears all day. She took the steps she paused, loathe to enter, held by some terror. She listened. She could hear a movement, a shuffling steady movement. She listened intently. Liebertli walking! Back and forth like a caged lion. Walking with swift steps as he had not been able to walk for months. He was crying too, or barking. He was grunting, noise such as she had never heard before seeped through the cracks of the door. She opened the door cautiously. Liebertli scuttled up and down the room, writhing, fearing at his wrists with his teeth as though chains bound him. Sobbing in his throat, you. She whispered "Lieb!" He turned upon her, grasped at her throat. "Give it to me, I tell you," he whimpered. "Give it to me!" She fought him off, but he bounced Luana collected her strength by a tremendous effort, twisted out of his hands, then caught his wrists in her hands. She spoke clearly and clowly, trying to impress his clouded brain. "Lieb, I can not get anything now. Just-wait—a little—while. Soon—all-will-be-opened-up. I'm doing the best I can." Andre's! In the Street of Horrors. Luana forgot her self control. She screamed. "I can't go there. I tell you, I can't. Right at the corner there are policemen. We's never be able to get out again." Lieb understood that, alright. His brain worked with its old precision. He said, "Then we'll go there to stay." Luana gasped. To stay! To live! In the street of Horrors. I wont do it. I tell you. I wont!" The terrible street, inhabited by loathsome ghouls, and Lieb wanted her to sink to that. She went weak all over. "I won't do it, Lieb. I won't. You've dragged me down far enough. I will be the first. She wondered why she did that. She might have known it would make an impression on Lieb's distorted brain. His cunning face was illuminated by the idea she had put in his mind. He came toward her slowly, his eyes glinting like poised like a leopard's about to spring. Luana put her hand to her mouth to choke back a scream. "Listen, Lieb. I'm not afraid of you," she spoke firmly, trying to assert mastery over him. "I'm not afraid of you. But she listened. She was afraid. He was between her and the door. CONCLUDED NEXT WEEK. BY ANN PAGE Director, A. & P. Bureau of Home Economics Tea is even easier to make than coffee and yet it is even easier to spoil a cup of tea than to ruin a cup of coffee. Fixed up with cream and perhaps sugar, coffee will not show quite so plainly that it has been bequit treated. It is not quite so sensitive. Blends of tea differ even more than blends of coffee. A person who is accustomed to green tea usually can see nothing good in black tea. And opposes the true, so rest of all to suit the taste, best you must know his preference. Black tea is now used much more in this country than green. Cream, sugar and sliced lemon should be passed with tea. Remember that your guest may like cream as much as you like lemon with tea or vice-versa. The most elaborate service of this kind that I have seen is in a famous New York restaurant, where, between cloves, candied cherries, kumquats, violet leaves and mint leaves are also on the tea tray. Whatever is served with afternoon tea must be dainty. Tiny mixed baked powder biscuits or small baking powder biscuits, or muffins little cakes, cookies or crullers are all delicious. Cinnamon toast or plain toast should be cut in finger lengths. There are exceptions to all and many, and muffins which are rather large but of course split in half before being toasted. Orange Marmalade or raspberry, strawberry jam is often served with muffins or toast. I am going to give you just one recipe for a favorite tea muffin today. Soften the bread crumbs in milk. Add the molasses and the beaten egg. Sift together the flour, soda, baking powder and salt. Mix the mixture and shorten it and stir quickly. Turn into greased muffin tins. Bake in a moderate oven (375 degrees F.) twenty-five minutes. A good way to test table linen is to secure a sample and dip it in any kind of oil.

You are keeping it. You can get it it. And, at, And." Food Facts Testing Table Linen In Darker Baltimore In Darker Baltimore By RALPH MATTHEWS Contrary to the general belief, all the men who live in South Baltimore do not wear overalls and smell like fertilizer. One would, I confess, arrive at this impression while riding on the Fremont Avenue car, most any evening about sunset when the factories turn their honest but odoriferous employees out upon unsuspecting commuters. Holding your nose, you can apreciate an admirable characteristic that these sturdy, broadsouldered squarejawed men possess. Looking beyond their gray hair and white face, their eyes are bright and dust you see deep inside their aforementioned overalls a carefree, childish spirit akin to abandon almost. Far removed are they as they laugh and tell jokes, rather dirty jokes and glares and worries of their brethren having greater intelligence. Not for them to grow wrinkled freeting over the European affairs. Foreign entanglements to their young lives means getting into a fight with a Dago or an rishman. A fearful criminal lives with a rainbow round his shoulders. To him there is but one crisis of any consequence — the factory's closing down. That means hard times. There is but one hate — cops who raid crap games. That means losing a boy's work and probably taking a bain in jail. There are two great pleasures in life — "my best gal and gir." At night he doesn't wear overalls The lunch bucket is tossed on the kitchen table with a clang. He puts on his blue trousers and yellowish tan shoes, the striped silk shirt with poudle collar, the fancy arm bands that his gal gave him — the box back coat. Tonight he is a prince. There are women, jazz, liquor. He picks his roses while he can — tomorrow means overalls and more damn work. The Progress Of The Kingdom If you could outgrow him in for some plain and fancy devil dumping this summer. The Rev. J. C. Barnett, who puts up the canned gospels for the Columbia Record Co. is going to appear at Wonderland Park in person and not a moving picture. Every reverend and ecclesiastical personage is responsible for such contaminating religious verbs as "Go Wash In Jordan Seven Times" and "The Downfall of Nebuchadnez- zar." I am in favor of the stipulated number of baths for Baltimore Christ- ian schools, and I succeed that the Chesapeake Bay be substituted for the Jordan river. The ironical thing about these evangelical services is the fact that they are being held in the dance hall, where the dance hall is having on the youth of America will naturally be stressed by the minister. I am quite certain, because no respectable revival could be run without lambasting the dance halls. Much good will undoubtedly be done, but sinced jazz will be scourged back to Hades in these fliery sermons. I am informed, however, that the church folk will have to vacate this pavilion in time every night to make room for the dance hall. Dem is making great progress for which heaven be praised. This is a secret not to be whispered over back fences. I'm going to quit work. I mean I'm going to quit doing even what I'm doing now. I have decided to get rich. Make a fortune, grow filly with dough and probably buy a pair of plus fours. I will be able to sell all by myself a little pamphlet that came to me, by mistake I think made up my mind for me. For only one paltry dollar somebody in New York will send me advice on how to handle investments, tell me when to hold stocks and when to sell it to the firm. For instance, if I decide to sell my Consolidated Steel, they send me a scratch sheet saying steel will drop four points, but Alamzaqal Oll is due to rise therefore. I hold my Consolidated Steel. I hold my Consolidated Steel. Simple isn't it? So simple, in fact, that I find myself getting up in the middle of the night to laugh over how dumb I've been working all these years. After I make my first ten or twelve thousand they will charge me more money. I become a regular subscriber for only $50. Ha, ha. I'll miss it.

Don't Make a Toy Out of Baby 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 irritability, crying or sleeplessness.

Over 25 million bottles used a year shows its overwhelming popularity. With each bottle of Castoria, you get a book on Motherhood, worth its weight in gold. Look for Chas. H. Fletcher's signature on the package so you'll get genuine Castoria. There are many imitations. matter — I haven't any stock to sell and no money to buy any with. Not to be daunted, however, I shall take a chance and subscribe to this service anyway. I can borrow the dollar. Borrowing that money is the worst policy. I offer a scheme of any way for amassing a fortune. If everybody who reads this will put one dollar in a plain white envelope, address the same to your truly and forget to put on a return address, in no time. I have enough to retire and live comfortably without being forced to write dreadful stuff like this for a livelihood. This, I confess, sounds a bit avaricious on my part, but when you con- fer with the nominal cost per reader, the AFRE weekly minus this column, the invest- ment would be well worth your while.

Page Eighteen Labor Situation Eases Thru- out Country Reports Show For March CHICAGO SHOWS WAY Colored Workers In Drug and Department Stores NEW YORK. — The National Urban League, through its De- partment of Industrial Relat- ions, of which T. Arnold Hill is Dir- ector, reports as follows on indivi- strial changes during the month of March. Though unemployment is still abnormal the month of March witnessed the beginning of a gradual change for the bet- ter in the general unemployment situation which had been said to be the worst since 1821. The building trades began to improve, steel and iron factories increased their working days, the auto industry rolled and textile operations movement situation among Negroes forward. As a consequence which the company follows the general trend for the country, is showing signs of improvement. Negroes are not returning to the jobs that have been taken over of the industry to white labor began to show up during the latter part of March, also Pine Bluff added one hotel to the rather long list that have changed instances denoting betterment are so fragmentary that specific citations would be unreliable. The best that can be reported is a very small number of industrial commentators and the Department of Labor in Washington have pointed to as an indication of better times when out-door work Winston-Salem Conditions in Winston-Salem apparently grew worse and from there it was reported there are more Winston-Salem employees than Winston-Salem during the month of March than have been in ten years. Cleveland and Detroit show considerable gain among Negroes. The Negro Welfare Association has a total number of placements, as compared with the month of February. The favorable condition in Detroit is due to the upgrade in automobile products. He has also been reported to have consistently reported unemployment unchanged, showed a marked improvement in March. Chicago. The most recent achievement came from Chicago where the South Center Department Store has provided employment for 35 or 40 colored men and women out of a total force of 100 Negroes are currently clerk in the office, receiving clerks, switchboard operator, assistant to the manager and assistant window trimmer. The store is located in a district access to both white and Negro patrons. Chicago also reports two oil stations in charge of colred men. This is the first time that the company Negro force including the pharmacists and help in this capacity in Chicago. A large nationally known drug corporation has almost a complete Negro force including the pharmacists. The Negro practice which the same company abandoned some years ago. Tulsa-Buffalo. Buffalo, Tulsa and Buffalo present unified tulsa. In Buffalo Negro musicians lost their jobs in dance balls and night clubs when they were closed by police because of legal violations. Most of the musicians and those that remained employed white orchestras. In Tulsa, Republican Candidates for city offices promised an equal division of labor if Negro would be a unique innovation for Oklahoma and would provide for some of the surging labor which has come to the city from the farms because the hollowwell interfered with the cotton In Pine Bluff where men are working two or three days a week, college students are colored students losing their jobs at hotels white business men are making anneals for colored people in the city. College students are being colored school children and free trade tickets chicken, efs, are being given away. WANTED - Position as junior or porter. K.

THE APRO CARRIES MORE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY."—Eugene Gordon, 1928 Survey. Saturday, April 28, 1928 Mrs. Abbie M. Johnson. V. G. D. R. 1630 Wharton Street. Philadelphia, Pa. My dear Dr. Johnson. My attention has been directed to an article which appeared in the columns of our Elk Journal, known to the Washington Eagle, under date of April 6th, 1922, headed "Able N. Johnson Candidate for Grand Daughter Ruler" said article and interview with you was made and written by P. Grant Gilmore. In this article above referred to, you declare yourself as candidate for Grand Daughter Ruler subject to the wishes of the delegates at the Chicago Convention 1923. I frankly confess and freely admit that any accredited representative of our ranks has the undisputed right as a member of our Grand Order to aspire to any position in the gift of the Order, and I further state that such person in declaring themselves for such position should be positive that their declarations and assertions, especially regarding the ambitions of others should be absolutely true. Because of the nature of this open letter to you to the end that all Elkdom may know me stand in the matter. To be more explicit, I have stated that, more as above outlined, that I the present Grand Daughter Ruler Ella C. Berry, said, "that under circumstances would I be a candidate to succeed myself in this letter, rather than for purpose in no uncertain terms that I made such a statement in substance or in fact; at no time during my career, I have stated publicly or privately that I would not be a candidate for re-election. First. I am asking the question at what Past. Dt. Rulers Council is amenable to make such statement? Why would I be called on to make such statement? While serving as Vice Grand Daughter Ruler 1925. I was the guest of Past Dt. Rulers Council in Pa. I had occasion to address both Brothers and Daughters in company with our Grand Patricarch J. Finley Wilson. Imagine my saying how I would keep the office when I trumped and accustomed to get it. What would be the occasion unless I was questioned at this meeting, and this certainly was my motivation and accustomed to the meeting held in Reading was to be used as a stepping stone not so much for your humble servant as for those whose ambition ran equally as high as my own. I again repeat that I was not questioned in Reading about the length of time a Grand Daughter Ruler should remain in office, since we have neither nor law by which to be governed. Grand Daughter Ruler Hodges, remained some 15 or 16 years. Grand Daughter Ruler Hodges, missed memory, just ten days when sheceived the final summons. Grand D.Ruler Laura E. Williams three years,including the unexpired term of DL Ruler Laura E. Williams one term, half of the next, then muststart refuting misstatements. Do you recall Dt. Johnson's making the statement to me that you thought Grand Dt. Ruler to stay in office. In your own home this statement was made. I repiled to you that I had not denied not to say how, long I had been in office. I did not particular time there was no one present but God, you and I, and I can consciently call on Him to any time have a private conversation you were summoned at all times to the good daughters of Philadelphia and was out in the car with Dt. Ruler. Manager. Then do you recall Dt. Johnson, sitting in my home. October, 1921 when I planned the Silver Jubilee August, 1928 in honor of the Supreme Court of Victoria. I say, do you recall making the statement then in my home, that you wanted Dt. Berry to be as wanted as she wanted to be? You said the presence of Dt. Emma V. Kellery, Grand Secy; Dt. Hattie Cobsey, Past Grand Doorkeeper; Dt. Mamie Rose When you wrote me announcing our candidacy asking my support, I answered your letter in the most rightward manner possible, told you that I would be a same candid square-dealing daughter, ever, and in the battle that goes on through life, I ask but a field that is honorable and fair, a chance that is equal to all in the skirt, the courter that is equal to all in the skirt, the courter should win let it be by this code, with my faith and my honor held high, and if I should lose. I will stand by the road and cheer as the winner goes by. I shall continue to give to me. Old Order the best that is within Me and leave the rest to My Father. In conclusion, I have this to say, in addition to the denial of state-mentions, I have been, am now, and will be a candidate at the Chicago Convention, 1928, to succeed myself as Grand Dt. Ruleholder, and to give the same do I hereby submit to all Elkdom for their rigid scrutiny and investigation, feeling reasonably sure that record has been made, and give it careful thought and what that record has meant to the good of the Order, that all mis-statements have been made, that the denial of statements charged to the good with all the power given me from a Just and Mighty God. I am not guilty of proclaiming the truth and standing room to proclaim the truth and knee-room to tell God about it. urs for God and Humanity, ELLA G. BERRY KREY, Grand Daughter. Ruler.

Jenkins 747 Saratoga street, as he landed in a lot of trouble. Friday 13th, he was walking on Edmondson avenue, when he saw an automobile he had readmitted the car for a moment and tempted further, tired the brake, just for fun. The car wasn't locked. Six months later that same car was sighted by a patrolman going down the street at a terrific speed. After giving chase the officer found that the man behind the wheel was Jenkins. This P.O. Box Jenkins was arranged in the Criminal Court, charged with stealing the vehicle. Judge "explained Jenkins, I just got out of walking and wanted to take a ride." "You are going to be further accommodated," replied the judge. "I am going to ride to the House of Correction and you aren't coming back for a year." His Own Business Proves To Be Somebody's Else Luther Burke, 1721 Maryland ave. in the Maryland House of Correction just because he didn't know that arguing with his "own wife" "Now look!" said Burke. "I am talking to my own wife in front of you, and isn't anybody's business but my own." "You are mistaken." said the officer. "you are creating a disturbance in the public street against the peace of others," he said. And it therefore, becomes a matter that vitally affects organized society. Well, what is organized society going to do about it?" asked Burke, knocking the officer's cap to the ground. As he stopped to pick it up Burke kicked him in the mouth. "this officer needled in people's business when he didn't have anything to do with it." "I judges do the same thing," came the reply, "and I am going to give you six months." Too elegant tastes in the choice of sleeping quarters landed William Smith, 45, 120 Winters street, in the town of Wintersburg, where he was found in a private car in the B. & O. Yards. Friday. According to testimony heard in the Southern police station, a yardwalker was arrested for issuing from one of the officials cars which was sidetracked in the yard. When he investigated he found Smith stretched out on a mongahoy room covered with a silk table cloth. "Your honor!" explained Smith. "I was on a little spree and couldn't get up in the railroad track. I just broke open that car and went to sleep." "You did $12 worth of damage to the car," replied the Magistrate "but I will parole you if you make restitution." Smith accepted the court's terms. DEATHS DEATHS Eward Ingram, 45, 119 W. Franklin-nt.

HOWEVER, THAT COMMITTEE WAS VALID Avenue Edifice Although the resolution giving a committee power to buy the Madison Avenue M. E. Church, white, was valid, it did not give them power to mortgage the Union Baptist Church on Druid Hill Avenue, Judge Eugene O'Dunne ruled in Circuit Court dismissing the bill of the Commonwealth Bank for specific performance Monday. The decision of Judge O'Dunne came as the close of prosecutions of the Pleasers. David Over when it was brought out in the testimony that nothing in the minutes of the church showed that any authority had been given to mortgage the church or parish contract to buy the Marion Avenue edifice. Under the decision, the Union Bap- tle would purchase or abandon it in their pleasure. Attorneys representing the buyers would not take over the property. Action Not Valid With only the bank official who signed the contract and the Rev. Dr. Over resisting, evidence was brought to the congregation of the congregation, a committee of eight was authorized to buy a church building but was unable to but a plaque of $70,000 on the Drud Hill avenue property and the $10,000 parsonage on Dolphin as well as the newly acquired church.

Ends Tangle The court decision will probably end the long drawn out fight between trustees of the church and the former pastor, Dr. Over, which grew out of an effort to buy the Madison avenue property, and which resulted in the outing of the pastor nearly two months ago. Members who sided with the trustees remained at the Druid Hill avenue church while adherents of the Rev. Dr. Over have organized the President Baptist Church and taken over the edifice at the corner of Edmondson and Fremont avenues. Groups from both sides were present at the trial and from all indictments, and seem to have been satisfied with the final Union Baptist trustees say they have saved what is recarded as a shrine to the late Dr. Harvey Johnson and will in due time call another pastor.

De- nies Too Much Attention Is Given Religion GOD WATCHING WORKER Emphatic denial that too much attention is paid to religion by Christians was made Sunday by the pastor of Centennial Briggs, pastor in his morning sermon. "God is looking upon us to see if we are up and doing our work," declared Mr. Briggs. Praised the fighting spirit of the worshippers in the Health Week marathon the Christian, declared the pastor is doomed to lose the race if he does not attend, that one asks, he said, that one endures to the end and all who finish are winners. Modernists The Rev. M. M. covered modernists who declare that too much attention is given by the church to religion and the hereafter. If one must die knowing that he is to spend the rest of his life, he should not be concerned about preparation? the minister asked. In his urge for followers of Christ, he said, he is not enough to merely do good for no special reason. The most worthwhile things he said, are not done by persons lacking in spirit, but by individuals who are motivated by Christian ideals. Edward Williams, age 16, 1633 W.
