They also had radiator caps and sundry fenders, splinters and body buys were strewn over the roadway.

CAMP ALBERT T. RITCHIE, PA. — 350 visitors were given a taste of army life when they were handed mess kits and lined up in regular army fashion as the guest of the First Separate Company at this camp, Sunday.

Vote For Smith, Then Commit Suicide
Dr. W. E. DuBois Also Urges Only Fools To Vote For Hoover
NEW YORK—Let all northern black voters who are fools vote for Hoover in November.
"Black voters of the North who support Smith should first vote for him and then commit suicide in the current issue of the 'Crisis', official organ of the N. A. A. C. P.
In his attack on Hoover, Dr. DuBois says the Republican party is of its dirtiest games in the Perry Howard case.
"If the charges are true, he is a grafting politician of the most conspicuous attack against him are not one whit worse than those against Bascom Slemp, erstwhile Congressman from Indiana, then Secretary of Cabin College and now in charge of the Republican campaign in the South. Slemp, Howard, Tolbert, Ben Davis, and most of the Southern politicians have trafficked in public offices. White Democrats have bought offices and white Republicans, like Herbert Hoover, have received the votes and for it the National Republican Convention.
"The whole situation is a crying shame to American political black voters in the South is disfranchised and their political power wielded by grafting politicians of all colors and communities."
"When the pinch comes and the insurgent West joins with the white South in demanding investigation, it is only the black politicians who are the ones to benefit. Hoover and their kind, so free."
corrupt bargain with the solid South and their craven fear of the 'liberal South."
All Dressed Up Nowhere To Go
The intelligent southern voter, the intelligent western farmer, the intelligent black American voter, all dressed up in this campaign with nowhere to go. Dr. DuBois declares.

PHILADELPHIA, (A. N. P.)—Walk Miller, manager of the middle-weight champion, Tiger Flowers, used to often explain the Tiger's light punch by saying: "Tiger can't afford to. He couldn't hit all right, but he can't get any business at all
Smith No Better
The editorial on Smith declares: "If the Democratic party was openly and thoughtfully planning to vote in the North, they certainly were eminently successful. They opened their convention with an atrocious lynching. They segregated voters in the North, they caged them, they nominated for Vice President (an office which, since the Civil War, has made its incumbent President in four cases) a typical African-American. Alfred Smith does not relieve the situation. "Smith is an excellent administrator and his attitude on liquor is at least honest, while Howe's Smith has solden been Alfred Smith has solden been aware of the black citizens of the state of New York. He has given 250,000 Negroes of the state only one million dollars for black people not the slightest personal interest or appreciation. He has consistently vetted every bill and movement which Negroes advocate. He has solden been aware which Smith belongs, knows no color line in the world except in the United States; but here it is 'Jim-Crow' from top to bottom in church attendance, in philanthropy, in missionary endeavor.
All Dressed Up

The intelligent southern voter, the intelligent western farmer, the intelligent western voter, are all dressed up in this campaign with nowhere to go, Dr. DuBois declares.
10 COPS SAVE LINCOLN U. "PRO" BOXER
PHILADELPHIA, (A. N. P.)—Walk Miller, manager of the late middle-weight champion, Tiger Flowers, used to often explain the Tiger's light punch by saying: "Tiger can't afford to. We could can hit all right, but he can't get any business at all if he went around knocking out all the white boys he came up against."
Some of the truth of this statement was seen here last week when Kid Snowden, a Lincoln University student who is making his way through Kool by air, hired a K. O on Charlie Miller, white, in the third round. Miller is an Italian and the arena was full of his friends who had been struck and stunned by a punishment given their favorite by the university student.
"As soon as Snowden left the ring, Miller partisans ganged around him and tried to stun him to cut a passage for him through the crowd, to guard him while he obtained his clothes and to escort him from the athletic club.
The knockout which Snowden scored off Miller was his twentieth straight. He plays end on Lincoln's football team.

AVERAGE RACE BUSINESS LASTS ONE GENERATION
NEW YORK — A new keynote to make the National Negro Business League more effective and serviceable was struck at the twenty-ninth annual session here Aug. 15, 16 and 17.
The league having changed from the segregated organization that it was originally, it is now seeking to help the business man achieve efficiency. Through cooperation with the public department Commerce and other agencies, it is offering a wealth of information on every phase of business.
Dr. R. B. Motton told how Tuskegee University had a $10,500,000 endowment, and a $6,000,000 annual budget had been able to top $60,000 of its budget and yet increase salaries by more efficient manage-

Mayor Walker eschewed politics in his welcome address. He told of his greatness. Mayor K. Adams proud of the pride of the people in its public school system.

Administration, Mayor Walker, knows nothing about race, creed, religion or politics, in its approach to municipal problems. "The measure of every man in this community is his ability and his ability.

**QUOTING MR. BROWN.** You're your best friend. Bath-well Brown. He is star man on the great Washington Post. Each day he dresses up the news on the first page of his paper; sends you to your school; makes you think, if you can do that.
Three years ago he turned the light on Morehouse parish. The Klan has been here for 50 years, the 50th anniversary of the Washington Post not so long ago he wrote a review of his paper that no student of the National Capital University could read. However, you can't read everything nor in this day of swift changes and pleasures remember half you read. So this humble writer reads for you and tries to have facts in hand as you need them. . . .
This is what Mr. Brown recently wrote (August 2, 28) on the front page of the New Yorker's Leonard powerful Washington daily:
"Just why the Hoover managers got it into their minds that President Moton of Tuskegee and of the Negro opinion of the day, and therefore a good leader of the race to tie up with, it would be difficult to show that he sets out to cultivate the colored vote at the very moment George Moses is talking about winning the election to include a slapped cog somewhere in the Work machine.
"THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THAT SOME DAY THE NEGRO PARTY OF HIS OWN AND TURN POLITICS IN THIS COUNTRY UPSIDE DOWN."
Read that last paragraph again. You will realize, while white people that you may be a long time getting up a party but when you do your real freedom will begin. You see but your big men must be social relations with political allies, republicans or democrats, can't hope for party equality with them. Is not that clear. Your writer got up the Lincoln League, hoping for a party for you. "Stop him," big men cried. Your party might lot turn political. You might lot turn political, as Mr. Brown says, but it would turn you upside down. That is what is badly needed. The sooner, the bet-

Brusheau, special investigator for the attorney general, and has resulted in a large number of indictments, two of those being of Morris Eller, city sealer and candidate, for election to the House and Judge Emanuel Eller, his son.
Haynes has been active in delving into payrolls of the Thompson faction and has made disclosures that have been the cause of a tremendous hopping off of temporary appointees and political favorites in city hall offices.

It has been expected and hinted for some time that the investigation would ultimately reach the Southside, Negro section and strike some of the colored leaders.

PASTOR DENIES TAKING GRAFT IN CHICAGO
CHICAGO, ILL., (A. N. P.) — Although investigator's who have been poring over the payrolls of the corporation counsel's office in an effort to discover how much of the public's money was used to employ political workers in the last campaign, found his name and the sum of $165.00 set alongside it, the Rev. J. C. Austin, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church and chairman of the foreign mission board of the National Baptist Convention, denies that he ever obtained the money. Rev. Austin admits that he was a strong supporter of the "America First" campaign of Hale Thompson, but claims that the money services without stint or recompense. On the corporation counsel's payroll he is listed as an investigator hired into society others who were involved in the service of help the Thompson forces. Denying that he ever got the money, he is unable to tell who might have obstructed which was supposed to be for him. Rev. Clark Confesses Rev. Charles H.

Henderson Tells Why Old Beach Commissioners Quit
Two Schools Of Opinion As To Best Means Of Developing Chesapeake Bay Summer Resort
(By E. B. Henderson, M. A. Francis and Nathaniel Guy.)
HIGHLAND BEACH, Md. — There has been so much ado about Highland Beach that all except one of the former commissioners decided to offer candidacy, but some of the members of former administrations resent the falshoods and gross information supplied your columns last week.
In the commissioners' meeting Sunday, one of the gentlemen whose name has been used without his consent attempted to find out who was responsible but no one admitted responsibility. The facts concerning the recent election are as follows:
20; Mr. Ware, 19. Mr. Taylor declined in favor of Mr. Evans. The commissioners, by a vote of 3-2, elected Mr. Douglass mayor, and John Washington, who was defeated for commissionship, was elected secretary, and Mr. Talley Holmes, of tennis fame, was made treasurer.
No Road To Beach
His false statement that the former administration favored a county road to the beach. They did favor road coming to the outer limits of the corporation. The proposition he hummed down by the advocates of bad roads who felt that good roads would be too inviting to an "irresponsible" public. The former commissioners felt that a county road
Four members of the old commission board, Mrs. James E. Walker, Mr. Nathaniel B., Dr. Milton Francis and Mr. E. B. Henderson, published, as per notice enclosed, that they would under no circumstances be candidates. That we made this presentation, I feel, had not Wiite was cast fear any one of them, although they have been elected by large votes for several years.
"Tom" Williams
These commissioners and some other residents suggested the names of Mr. Thomas Williams, Mr. Owen Taylor, Mr. Bosco Evans and Mr. Richard T. Ware. The letter your columns bore last week was sent out to the voters carrying the names of Mr. Williams, Mr. Haley Douglass, Mrs. Fannie Douglass, Mr. John Washington and Dr. Wells, Mr. Williams has repeatedly declared that the use of his name to that letter was endorsed and yet endorsed that his name had been thereto. Rumor has it that another gentleman was not aware of its content.

No Road To Beach
His false statement that the former administration favored county road coming to the outer limits of the corporation. The proposition was thumbed-down by the advocates of bad roads who felt that good roads would be too inviting to an "irresponsible" group. The commissioners felt that a county road coming to the town's limits would solve the problem of keeping up a long length of bad, bumpy road by private subscription and that the control over the town streets would remain with the commissioners as
Employed Police
The former commissioners passed ordinances, employed a police officer, to restrict the use of the beach to residents or their guests, which included guests of the hotels. Bathing from auto, parking in the vicinity of the beach, and plenicing has been prohibited for years. As a result of the campaign document sent to voters, and printed in the AFRO, carrying the name of a former mayor and member of the outgoing commissioner, some of the members addressed a letter to all the people outlining the predominant issues that were bound to cause trouble and less than intelligently handled for the good of the increasing number of dwellers and their progeny. The outgoing commissioners, who were not defeated, as the AFRO's informant who probably was defeated, said, left the office feeling that had done the very best they could to make the very best they could the most successful recreation spot for the residents and guests and friends.

INDIANAPOLIS. (By Wire). — The Governor, Ed Jackson, and the Mayor, L. E. Slack, of Indianapolis, joined Monday in welcoming to the city and state three hundred nine delegates from twenty-six stakes. Mayor Slack said: "What is there to race? Go out and accomplish something for the crowd. What is what counts? Speaking further of Madan Walker, he said: "It is a great thing to start life in a humble and work your way up. It makes you know I am you have done something. I am mayor of all. We work together here for the good of all the people".
Watermelon Story
The Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce found a chilly audience when he had told a possum and watermelon story.
Rev. S. S. Jones, of Muskogee, Oklahoma, in a speech here Monday, divided the Negro race into four parts. Five per cent, ten per cent, and five per cent; they think, sixyfive per cent, do not think at all. "The five per cent, might be able to do something with the sixty-five were it not for the troublesome thirty per cent."
Madan Walker's presence is a big feature of convention.
G. C. Spaulding said: "Businesses fall because those who must pass away do not take those who must take responsibility into their confidence."
Mac R. Perry, First Vice-President and granddaughter of the late Madan Walker, has been prevented from attending the convention through the arrival of a fine daughter.

VALKLER BUILDING -- DEDICATED TO LOVE AND FAITH
PICKENS SPEAKS AT DEDICATION OF WALKER BLDG
Quarter Of Million Dollar Plant Dedicated To "Love And Faith"
LATE MME. C. J. WALKER TRANSFORMED A RACE
"American Negro Best
Continent"
INDIANAPOLIS — "A monument to love and faith," William Pickens declared the new $250,000 C.J. Walker cosmetic manufacturing plant dedicated Tuesday.
He said:
"The love: this woman had a daughter whom she loved, as much as any queen ever loved a princess, as much as any mother ever loved a child. A woman a future, a position for a child was the fuel of the fire that burned uncessingly in the heart of this black mother. Like Abraham Lincoln, this Negro woman had no ancestry, but she could herself become an ancestor, remembering to the remotest iteration of her children's chil-
And, the Faith that was in this man: primarily it was faith in a b. In a day when there was the general lack of it, the less love of his mission, the less kind, especially relation to financial responsibility, and an almost superstitious of trust in educated lawyers in regular,—in such a day Madam C. Walker, the Seer and the Prophet, pinned her faith and her her
future on a life.
At her death, this faith had become settled in confidence born of experience that she did a rare, an almost unprecedented thing; she bequeathed the management of her estate, involving the interests and happiness of her beloved daughter and the final success of her ambition, ideal, to the head and the hand of this same young lawyer, F. B. Ran-
Only One Problem
"Madam Walker solved most of her problems that were worth solving when she solved her economic problem. She could not make a certain kind of Americans like her color but she made them like it. It was made of American Neuros whose own inferiority complex causes them, consciously or unconsciously, to adopt the traditional attitude of American whites toward them in to meet this with their biased view, but before they left, they took off their hats, put on their best behavior, and acknowledged her for the great black queen, which she really was.
Transformed Race
Thanks to the genius of Madam Walker and the necessity of her comedy, American Negro today, at best, is the best looking animal on the continent. Good looks have no relation to skin-color: colored Americans of all colors can be made to look like a better grade of people. And the same arts should improve
"Speaking of art—Madam Walker has a supreme artist; she has improved, not the pictures, but the presences of her men and women. Your oil painting, or even your photograph, may lie on you, but your face will tell the truth. With her magic wand she has changed many a Topsy into a black fairy, and many a beggarly apparition into a princely presence.
"BILLY SUNDAY" HAS CHURCH FIGHT
GULFPORT, Miss. (ANP.) — Differences of Rev. Gordon McPherson, better known as 'Black Billy Sunny,' have again disturbed the Baptist Church in Handsboro where the minister has been in church. This time his ex-servant has been besieged by the members of the board of deacons. On the other hand an affidavit has been sworn out by Rev. McPherson against Georgia Bennett, charging her with disabling the peace. The same bible arose from the understanding as to how $3,500 received from the insurance of a former church would be used in building a new one.
PITTSBURGH, Pa.-Mrs. Blanche Thompson and Mrs. Zula Blakey, associate mediators, were the capable directors of a style promohead named the "Miss Blakey," and their affair was a decided success.

The meeting was a continuation of the efforts of this organization to clean up the vile in the Hill district of New York. The protest unfairly acts done against colored people by public officiates.

The liveliest discussion of the convention occurred during the debate conducted by Rev. F. F. King at the Friday morning session. The men with adequate scholastic training fail in the ministry?

C. H. Matthews on the Pension and Relief Fund, and Dr. Sterling W. Mancure, of Howard University, on the Bible.

INDIANAPOLIS—The vanguard of delegates to the Eleventh Annual Convention of Madam C. J. Walker's agents and representatives and several hundred local citizens met Sunday morning at the Bethel A. M. Church, in a memorial service to the late Madam Walker, all who took part in the Madam intimately and are among her closest friends.
F. B. Ransom, attorney and manager, before introducing Miss Alice P. Kelly, who presided, pointed out how loyalty to the job condition of unemployment. Said he: "Our annual payroll is more than $200,000." "She was a Christian woman," remarked Miss Kelly. "I was the last person with whom she shook hands. She told me to be true to the work, and I thank her for it." Mrs. Robinson Speaks Mrs. Jesie D. Robinson, of St. Louis, Missouri, spoke on "Her Spirit." "Her last illness took place in my home in St. Louis." Mrs. Robinson for my daughter all through her life. But after that the rest. "By the rest she meant all of us. Here is a concrete example of living for others. My contact with her has made me see how little we all are and how big she was. She lived a beautiful life."
Mrs. L. Alexander, of Columbus, Ohio. was especially impressive. As one put it, she was bullying over with enthusiasm. "I love to say, 'Madam Walker!' I asked some school children once what did the name Madam Walker mean to them. On little by little, she greased. 'The children laughed just as you are laughing now. But Madam Walker means something more than grease. Madam Walker's discovery has transformed a race. "She was a philanthropist. I know personified that many things that she did gifts that she made—done with the request that they be kept secret."

The naming of Rev. Charles H.

M. E. Church, which closed its sessions in Washington, last Friday.
The conference met in Brown Memorial Church, Rev. J. H. Bowe pastor. It was presided over by the Rev. Charles H. Wesley, District Superintendent, who was assisted by Dr. J. W. Norris, acting as honorary

Three distinguished visitors at the conference were: Rev. Dr. Chavis, of Chicago; Bishop A. L. Gaines, of the Second Episcopal District, and Bishop M. H. Dawt.
Lalty Growl.
In the course of an inspiring address the bishop declared that while the clergy have heretofore widowed the balance of power in church government, the laity were constantly growing on strength.
The recent legislation, increasing a lay delegation from two to four, was held the bishop to be a 'level force' in the conferences, leading to more effective work.
Dr. Wesley's name, offered in a resolution, as candidate for the bishopric, was enthusiastically received. The session on Bible Contemplation, conducted by Dr. Stuart M. Brown of Howard University, head of this extension work, and his associate, Dr. Penn, was one of the most profitable meeting of the conference.
Disputes Census Report
This District Conference went on record as disputing the findings of the church census report for 1916 to 1926. This report stated that the church had lost 2,000 members during this ten year period. The district conference disputed this conclusion on the ground, the report itself, stated that 700 or more junior membership children 13 years pastors had failed to include their and in their reports to the state board.
Other visitors included: Rev. Charles E. Stuart, Rev. C. H. Baltimore.
Bishop Davi: in his address, said that the feature policies of the Church in Africa would be a more energetic attack on Mohammedanism and greater efforts to penetrate further into the interior of this 'Land of Hope'.

Sermon
The Memorial sermon was delivered by the Reverend Pope, pastor of Bethel. "He Who Would Become Great Among You, Let Him Be Servant Of All" was the basis of the sermon.
"No theologian could get a better idea of God's will that at the high privilege of serving God through serving his fellows—the spirit and practice of Madam Walker. She drew a circle that took in all. Her idea was superior to the Old Testament practice of giving one tenth. She gave two hirds.
"This wonderful institution has justified her labors. I believe that she would be happy to find things conducted as they are. I take off my hat to the officers of this wonderful company."
Madam A'Lelia Walker, daughter to the founder of the company and now its president, was present, but refrained from speaking. The presiding officer told how great companions the daughter and mother were: hom that Madam A'Lelia was born, her mother died, and how moved she is always on such occasions that refreshes the memory.

INDIANAPOLIS—The first delegate to arrive at the Madam Walker headquarters was from Cleveland Mississippi. With a full day yet before the formal opening on Tuesday, Mobile Alabama, Newark, New Jersey, Chicago, New York, Atlanta, Detroit, town in Texas, Washington, are a few of the places presented already. They are here, it seems, from everywhere and Mrs. X, from Georgia, counts it simply, matter of course to interact with Mrs. Y, from Chicago, Mrs. Z, from New York, Mrs. M, from Mississippi, to M, from New Jersey.
MHS, M.E. A. DeVere, from Detroit, expressed quite well the feeling of many of the women: "Why. I have been coming to these conventions eleven years now, and there are people that I just have to see each year. To us it is more like a family than anything else."
No High Hat
The facilities of the headquarters, the assistance of the employees, including ranking members of the staff, are made open and free to the visitors. From the time that they arrive at the station they are all given personal and naturally courteous attention. Harry Evans, advertising manager of the company, said in response to the company, statement yesterday: "There are no hatters among us. There are no little fellows on big fellows; we are all on the same level. We start off always by making our representatives feel at home."
The Walker Building itself is a remarkable institution. It is a four-story building and almost triangular in form. On either side the length is two hundred feet. at the base and width is one hundred fifty feet, tapering down to less than ten feet on the opposite side. It is surrounded by yards from the narrowest point of the building, placing the structure between two of the
intersecting streets with the two long sides following a street on either side and the sharpest point looking down one of the broadest streets in the city.
Theatre Seats 1380
Within the building there are businesses within themselves. The theatre seats the audience. The balcony, an immense organ a $12,000 ventilation system. luxurious ladies' dressing rooms, a beautiful lighting effect and machines operated by a race man who knows his business.
"The Coffee Pot" is a lunch room in the basement. The seating capacity is just 48, but in natural beauty there is nothing in the country like it: the general Egyptian and Spanish buildings in the town are taken also into "The Coffee Pot". In addition, the old English Coffee House lanterns are imitated. In the days of Chaucer, because of the thickness of the London fog, those frequenting the Coffee House carried their lamps to find the way. Upon reaching the Coffee House they hung the lamps along the sides of the walls. They made a walker Coffee Pot is lighted by "lanterns" hanging along the sides and of different sizes and shapes. Besides touches of African characters in the ceiling, the unfinished Spanish walls create a scene of real beauty.
**Drug Store**
A well appointed drug store. a tavern decorated barber shop. a grocery store. are other businesses on the first floor.
Seven medical men, four dentists, one lawyer, one real estate broker, have offices in the building. A large casino is located on the fourth floor.

Two Generations Needed To
Start A Business--Moton
Business Men Cannot Succeed Without Advertising.
AC Business e, New York)
“The ‘Business League” surveyors
have found out in this study of Ne-
Fro, business that “too few of our
usiness enterprises extend through
the second generations, which repre-
sents a serious loss to the race.
“The records of American business
show that it generally takes at least
two generations to establish a suc-
cessfud business on permanent foun-
dation; and when we find that only
& mall percentage. of our business
enterprises extend through the sec-
ond generation, it means in effect
that as a race, we are constantly
starting over, dgain, without making
any substantial progress in any one
direction ne
“Our survey has also shown that
the records of our business enter-
prises ate for the most part tade-
quate and ineffective.” We live in a
ime when the course of business {s
charted upon facts and such facts
are made available only through
the keeping of accurate records. Too
often we find our business men, par-
Hcularly the small retailers, seeking
loans for sustaining their ' business
when a more efficient system of book-
Keeping or a change of method In
handling and displaying goods would
enable that business to right itself.
Advertise
“Our surveyors are finding that in
too few instances are adequate up-to-
date methods in advertising, employ-
ed by our business men. ‘No busi-
ness in this era of competition can
survive without persistent advertis-
ing along approved lines. We can
profit by a large use of proper adver-
tising to secure the patronage of
our own people,
Cooperation Is Lacking
“Finally our surveyors are discov-
ering that one of the deficiencies of
Negro busienss is in the lack of co-
gperation betneen local business men,
Negro Business League has
placed at the disposal of Negro pusi-
hess men the most up-to-date meth-
od of ‘effecting | local organization
We do not quibble over names. Local
organizations may be called branches
of the League, or they may | choose
any other name they may wish,
2% Retail Trade
“In the fleld of retall merchandis-
ing it has been discovered that Ne-
gro merchants are handling only
two per cent. of the business among
colored people. It is estimated that
the ninety-elght per cent of the re
tall business which is not handled by
Negro business men gives employ-
ment to six hundred thousand peo-
ple: It for no other consideration
than that, our attention should be
focused upon the retail merchandise
eld.
Chain, Stores
“Tt ts also significant that in the
field of retail | merchandising the
competition which Negro merchants
are going to face is represented in
gigantic mergers and chain | stores.
which competition can only be met
with similar mergers among our own
business men, and the development
of cooperation to the point where it
will be the advantage of these or-
ganizations to include the Negro
merchant in their benefits.

Newark Reader Replies to Nutter and Lightford Statement in AFRO Recently, Concerning G. O. P. Conference at Atlantic City.
To the Editor:
"his man Friday, "Jim Lightfoot, "want something," before they "come out" for Hoover, Curtis, Kean and Larson. What this "something," is that they want is quite apparent. He wants something, before they "come out" for Lightfoot (the man Friday), seem to have any personal choice as between Hoover or Smith, Kean or Edwards, Larson or Dill. They must be, before either is a statement, are utterly devoid of political convictions, neither has any fine political principles, both are apparently on this political mart ready for the highest bidders, but the only conclusion I can draw from their statement.
Nutter and his man Friday, "Jim" Lightfoot, "want something," before they "come out" for Hoover, Curtis, Kean and Larson. What this means is that he is not the only person "Neither" the Nutter or "Lawyer" James A. Lightfoot (He's man Friday), to have any personal choice as between Hoover or Smith, Kean or Edwards, Larson or Dill. They must self, both, from their own statement, are utterly devoid of political convictions, neither has any fine political principles, both are apparently on the political mart ready for the highest bidders, only conclusion I can draw from their statement.
"Further, I will say that upon investigation I have found that no such "Conference" was held. Nutter nor Lightfoot, nor the "Conference", Where and when the "Conference" was held and who attended is still shrouded in mystery. Nutter nor Lightfoot, nor in fact, any person, black or white, can speak for the colored voters of the State. Yet, this much is apparent. Nutter and Lightfoot have submitted themselves as candidates for office at elections in their home state, black or white, and been rejected by both black and white voters. Dr. Alexander was twice elected an Assemblyman from his home county, Essex, and in 1924, he was elected to the statewide contests, the highest vote of all his colleagues. In this year, in another statewide contest, as a candidate for delegate at elections in his home county, he was the highest vote of the seven delegates-at-large elected. The three Negro Advisory Members of the Republican State Committee selected Dr. Alexander, the most prominent opinion, the choice of the colored Republicans, and recommended his name to the State Committee. Mr. Oliver Randolph functions in his position as an Assistant U. S. Attorney. Nutter and Lightfoot, the two most prominent peacers, slumped out of the law into the game of waiting for political campaigns to "bob" up. Surely either of the murder their present circumstances, or knowing whether Mr. Randolph functions or not.

After my brother and I wrote to the judges and managers about the brutes and their method of treatment, we had been inmate and had no experience of working in Maryland and know how these officials would go to Skipton's sauna three and four times a week, fill up and sleep their drunk off at the bar, and enough to reform boys.

I just returned from Europe. I see they still have run brutes at Chelanham Reform School. After my brother and I wrote to the judges and lawyers of the treatment, we had been inmates and had worked on farms down in southern Maryland and know how these officials would go to Smith's salon three and four times a week, fill up and clean the kitchen. I think the manager of Manor House think they are good enough to reform boys. They need reforming themselves. Ninety per cent of the boys now discharged from there to go jail or penitentiary. Boys receive no education and little or no Christian instruction. When I was there we had a priest of the Marlboro Church, a priest of the Episcopal church and a Methodist preacher to come and preach and give religious teachings and Pyles got rid of the priests and only hired his preacher of the church and paid pay would go to help the preacher's salary.
I hear he got rid of Mr. Lanefield, one of the best men ever there. What I am, and brother and treatment. But officers were jealous and spiteful toward Mr. Lanefield because he was offered the assistant superintendency, and managers like Mr. Lanefield, who has had fifty years experience and would help to improve the school. We have plenty intelligent colored men capable to run the place as it should be run, and we come on the place only at election times or to get boys to work their farms. What does am McGruder know about the place and school? Mr. McConn carries a scar on his head where an officer known as "Brandywine." Whiskey Tar. Taw Pat. struck him with a monkey wrench. The fellow was it fit to go to school. Too fond of his rum. Too much of a brute. Perhaps it will be well to build a new reform school, say, on the Eastern Shore. Let all churches and sell Cheltanheim to the government. If it is a failure a reformation for our boys.
Nelson And Rainey Qualified To Head Up National Work Of Democratic Campaign Committee. New Yorkers Should Put Aside Their Hearts To Editor—
Just a word for Robert J. Nelson of Wilmington and Washington and Julian D. Rainey of New York. Nelson son for many years, and Rainey ever since he quit Norfolk. From super Harlem has come the usual "squawk" of Presidential years against "outsiders" managing. Presidential campaign campaigns have been about Negroes invited to help run Republican campaigns. Now it also is against Nelson and Rainey, Democrats, and Al Smithers, who ran a campaign from the sartr to defeat a Congressman for deliberately offending Negro citizens and succeeded in his purpose. Nelson warned him would be the case. Hence the elevation to the upper Branch of Congress of Thomas F. Bayard of Delaware, second of the Bayards to be elected to the end of Congress. Leavitt's political career.
The Harlemites contend, nevertheless, that only a New York African is entitled to manage a democratic Tammany Democrats. Carried to logical sequence, ultimately, such a contention would forbid Gov. Smith naming Mr. Raskob, hitherto not a Democrat, as chairman of the Democratic Committee. But Mr. Raskob is chairman! New Yorkers react to the provinces and provincials in politics just as they do in professions and occupations. They only carry out schedules to fetch the pennants and the World's series to New York—so national campaign managers must be New Yorkers, deserving presents. When Alderemen Moore and Hawkins were elected to the Board of Alderemen as Republicans from Harlem the act of electing a Democratic from National consideration in the matter of managing political campaigns. A leadership with cannot elect an Aldereman certainly cannot elect a President.
New Yorkers react to the provinces and provincials in politics just as they do in professional baseball—14 other big league ball clubs exists only to carry out schedules to fetch the pennants and the World's series. The other major league team must be New Yorkers, despite the fact that they cannot carry their own precints. When Aldermen Moore and Hawkins were elected to the Board of Aldermen as Republicans from Harlem the fact automatically made them a political Affix from National consideration in the matter of managing political campaigns.

Thus spoke Vice Presidential Republican nominee Charles Curtis in his ech of acceptance Saturday night. Mr. Hoover believed in equal opportunity for all. Mr. Curtis says the entry can remain prosperous by give equal justice to all.
He doesn't say he believes in it. I does he make any pledge whatso-conceiving it.
So far as we can discern Mr. Curseased a great many words when all means to do is to "me too" Mr.ater's speech of two weeks ago.

And the looks oe Madame Walker, wise and Speak as she was, could hardly proved. uphsied the tremendous proences this business has made under second generation.
Church Declines
Tennessee's republican boss, R. R. church has declined a place on the lower campaign committee because he headed by Mr. John R. Hawkins, Washington, D. C., who can vote once in four years. Mr. Church says he objects also to way in which this committee was acted. The Tennessee boss has just concurred with both Mr. Hoover and Mr. Urbis. His letter of declination is preface an inference that his appeal them to change the personnel of the committee or add to its membership as been turned down. No other reponse remained except publicly to request the place proffered on the committee. Democrats will draw comfort from Church letter, altho Mr. Church not bolt the party. It is another of the independent spirit so evident in this presidential campaign.
We Need Everything
Hoover and Smith devoted long paragraphs of their speeches to bids the farm, wet and dry vote.
Mr. Hoover used up one or two traa speeches designed to get theod will of California and the West. he said he favored the Colorado river rm.
And yet there are colored folk who say "we do not want any special ledges from Hoover and Smith." The Negro constitutes a special group. We don't like this situation. we must confront the facts and theorizing. We're the only people who have separate cars, separate regiments, jim row restaurants, group schools and many places no vote.
A man can get along fairly well without a drink of whiskey, but he can't get along at all if he is barred from federal and state jobs because it's colored

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE. SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 1928
One or two more conventions and vacation days will be over.
Baltimore has a difficult task in finding a successor to the late John R. Cary, white, Urban League head and director of the New Provident Hospital project.
Our regret is he did not live to see the fine fruition of his work.

(Read the Week and Get a College Education)

Now France, home of good cooking, isn't satisfied with her cooks. A race of trying cooks and grease users does not get health. To know how to do, not how to put a dab of this and a dab of that, calls for intelligence.
Unless you know what is in a meat or a vegetable, how can you cook it into flesh and
Perhaps, you remember what Meredith wrote of civilized man, books and cooks. A colored cook or chef in a first class hotel is hard to find in not too many at all. Look in the kitchen.
News Of Africa
Those interested in Africa may take down the map of that grand continent and trace the retract of the Boers from Angola back to South Africa and the bosom of General Smuts.
Angola, from the right bank of the Kunene river, is Portuguese. Fifty years ago 500 "white men", with 2,000 head of cattle and 150 wagons, left southwest Africa, fearing a British oppression, and crossed the river after a long journey. These were Beers. They thought the Portuguese would turn over Angola to them and have them natives for over a century.
"We will clear the land for you", they told the Portuguese. "Go ahead", the Portuguese replied. "Now the Boers are loomed 350,000 pounds (1,800,000) by the Union government of South Africa to get back home on land," they told them. "These the Portuguese told them to be careful about killing up natives; they were refused title to land; they were not permitted to get up a language and to live alongside native children and study the same books. "We are white," the Boers said in their appeal to the Portuguese government, and we will continue to do so. The Portuguese, not a talkative people, kept sending home for new settlers to enjoy the lands cleared by the Boers. Also, they continued to teach the Portuguese and hold on to confidence of native Africans.
The Jews want Palestine and you say you want Africa. England gave the Jews Palestine. Who will give you Africa, if you decide to go home, nobody can tell. But when you will you will find that freemen prepared a home for you while you were doing time for somebody
Hope that while Mr. Garvey is in England he will run over to Africa and give you a report on matters, including the effort of 2,000 Boers to get back into South Africa.
The Religious War
Keep up with the religious war now being carried on by our white people. But don't get into it. Use as much all religion as you can. Use as much all white people have their own opinions about Jesus.
If a Protestant offers you bread when you are angry, give him the right bread ship. If a Catholic gives you a drink of water, hold him to be all right. Our white people may divide on Jesus and the proper way to reach him but as for YG, they are one on who you are and how to handle
Two great Protestants are now arguing with each other. Henry Van Dike, poet and preacher, and Charles E. Jefferson, the Conregational evangelist. Of course they fell out over
Editor William E. Gilroy, of the Congregationalist, takes his pen in hand. In a letter to the New York World, he says, defending Dr. Dr. Jefferson:
"I recognize that logic does not rule in these matters, that the element of paradox and the personal factor are largely involved in spirit and practice more real alliance to such principles, (tolerance and liberty) religious and political, than, shall we say, some Conerecationalist, whose actual narrowness and bigotry are indirect contrast to his professed
Quite a statement, is it not? Mr. Coolidge is a Congregationalist and if Mr. Gilroy hasn't in mind, you have. Mr. Coolidge must be behind in his church dues.
Fighting Preachers
Mr. Raskob, Chairman of the democratic National Committee, has been told by this time to mind the money and leave your argument alone. Feel free to collect money, talk with sense at the same time.
Perhans, you saw his statement to the effect that unless southern Babist and Methodist preachers stopped the fight on Al Qaeda's members in Iraq, the members plane to be killed. Methodist layman Pat Harrison, could have told Mr. Raskob that such talk would never do. Stay out of the discussion, keep eyes and ears open, and the conflict is ever you will. The situation further along.
No sooner was the ink dry on the Raskob statement than Bishop James Cannon, Jr., and the floor. Mr. Raskob, the Catholic, "remarked the Bishop, "knows but title of the Protestant Church, and mather at all of the Protestant Church. So Mr. Raskob needs guidance and swammy. Bishop Cannon's church left first, the Methodist brotherhood, and then, the Union, because they think that church to argue with the slavery narty when told that whisky, at least good whisky, is not wrong. The Methodist Church has no priests looking for handouts" Bishop Cannon informs Mr. Raskob. Put this down and follow the campaign. Mr. Raskob, Catholic, won't tackle Bishop Cannon, the Protestant again. Meanwhile, keep in mind what this writer has told you all along about a Catholic and white House. Hope is one thing; facts an-

DE PRIEST
DAY BY DAY
BY WILLIAM N. JONES
Talk to a cross section of Negro men and women, and you soon notice, played up as the big issue of this campaign, is not going to influence their voting much.
The dim and noise of bigger issues, so far as they are concerned, often do not affect other group leaders. These Republican leaders who preach the sacredness of the 18th Amendment cannot make much impression on the group as long as they do not amendments which ought to be many times more sacred to Amendmentists. Yet Democrats who advocate an extension of the American evil of constitutional nullification in behalf of personal and the group vote to enthuse over that, for most of their civic woes come from nullification of the Consti-
On general principles, the majority of colored folk are as temperate as would vote against the old time saloon. They feel, however, as the average conscientious American would in the past be built up in the hands of the people and cannot be forced down in such drastic doses as the Volstead law protects. THEY FEEL, HOWEVER, THAT LAWS, WISE OR UNWISE, ARE TOO SACRED TO ANNUL, AND ONLY HUMAN INSTRUMENT OF PROTECTION OF THE WEAK FROM THE STRONG. As a campaign issue, therefore, the wets will far as it effects group voting. The wets will no doubt get the city machine votes of the group, for this part, will be interested in the big American bootlegging business.
Mr. Blumberg Gives The Group A Challenge
Alex Blumberg, white, propriator of the new department store in New York, sentative of the AFRO-AMERICAN this week that if the patronage of the colored folk justified it, the department store would number of race girls as clerks and in other places of responsibility.
If Mr. Blumberg; opens the door of employment of colored women, most of what has happened in Baltimore in the last ten years and every thinking man and woman of the group has been involved in it. If his experiment is a success, it will not only mean the employment of the young men and women in it, but also the retail store employment in this city. Based on the spending power of our group the retail trade of the young men and women. We are literally cheating ourselves when we do not arrange that some of the dollars we earn to employ our own boys and girls.
Every minister, doctor, lawyer, school teacher, laborer and housewife should know that lawyers, Clumberberg and his store on Lexington street gets a call from them, not in the sense of trade, but in the deeper sense of accepting a challenge for our young men and women.

a memorial of appreciation to the late John R. Cary.
I know Mr Cary intimately know that while alive he would have discouraged any suggestion of this kind, it certainly would have encouraged a thousand colored folk in this city joined in some way to show their appreciation to this man who gave so much of his money and energy to their welfare.
If, for instance, 25,000 children contributed 10 cents and 75,000 dollars to the 100,000 memorial which would be both an appreciation and an inspiration, could be placed n the Provident Hospital which he helped to establish. There have been few white men who had as deep an understanding to help solve the problems of the group. While the hospital and other similar projects were overrun, the staff stood and was basing his future help along the more substantial lines of economic adjustment, and participation in the economic benefits of the community, were the substantial basis upon which he be-
Shortly before his death, Mr. Gary told this writer that he had in mind the financing of a house, a large apartment in Harlem and strangely enough, he hoped that the Homemakers Building and Loan Association might develop into some kind of a financial institution similar to the one recently announced, and would not only help home buying but give young men and women of the group employment.

Dixie Should Welcome Black Democrats
(From Richmond News Leader)
Why should the South go backward politically? Why should it be the slave of unfounded fears? The Negro has n tombstone 754 A.D. He has involved himself in this campaign. In the greater part of the South he has been attending to his own business and where he has shown any political interest in an effort to affiliate with the Democratic party in protest against ostracism by the Lily White Republicans. The Souths political salvation is not to be woe of a unity of importance or self-deception. It would speak exceedingly ill for the Southern Democracy in this hour of great opportunity, if they put aside the prejudice against Smith cannot be combated by prejudice against the Negro.
Don't Read This. It's Social Equality
From African World.
Thrusday, July 28, marked the 81st anniversary of the independence of the Republic of Liberia.
Germany paid her respects and congratulations to Liberia on that day through the Honorable Monica Lubomirczyk, the wife of the Liberian in Hamburg. Mr. Massaque received more than 300 callers at his home in Barcastrasse. Many prominent Liberians are visiting the city, and the entertained his visiting countrymen, his colleagues, and intimate friends at a delightful luncheon at one o'clock. From four o'clock until 10:30, Massaque received more than 300 visitors, who extended to Liberia and to the Consul-General their sincere congratulations. In the evening was held a grand ball, which meant success from every standpoint.
Among the prominent: Liberians visiting Germany, are: Senator W. W. Hahn, the Minister of Education, Hon. R. A. Sherman, former Postmaster-General, M. A. J. Padmore, Commissioner of Commerce, Commissioner of the Clerk to his Excellency the President of Liberia, Attorney William E. E. Dennis, and Miss Jerriette Connolly, Commissioner of Archives, Republic of Liberia, Briggmaster, Dr. Petersen of Hamburg, and also the Senate Connolly, Commissioner of Hamburg Senate, sent cards of congratulations to Consul-General Massaquol. The Seminary of African Languages in the Hamburg University also telegraphed their best wishes
66 YEARS AGO
Newspaper correspondents who w have been to Bull Run within the number of human skeletons left buried after the battle. Some of the people of the neighborhood also assert that some of the bodies were carried off as trophies by the rebels. A company of 200 colored people is now organizing in Harrisburg unarmed men in the Regiment. They intend to embark in May next for Haiti. Wendell Phillips, abolitionist, who attended the funeral of Cunat, was hauled down in the Opera House. Stones and rotten eggs were thrown from the audience who saw the nigger "Phillips," "Lynch the traitor," and "Tar and feather the abolitionist." In disorder Mr. Phillips spoke for an hour declaring that slain was dead although Mr. Lincoln was a good President and a slow one. He lights the building on his speech when members of the in the audience were on the point of finding the gas stop and putting on lights. He left the building on his behalf with a crowd threatening to take his life.
Islam Rules Africa
(Lester Walton In N. Y. World)
Only the unified progress of all Catholic enthusiastic and organized Islam's advance in Africa, warns the right Rev. Monsolu Gardiner, the Episcopal bishop, and only native Suffragan Bishop of the Missionary District of Liberia.
Bishop Gardiner, son of a Mohammedan priest, is in New York on a vacation.
Mohammedanism aims at nothing short of the conquest of the African church, away many a Christian stronghold.
Bishop Gardiner. At one time North Africa had 600 Bishops of the Christians, but it is predominantly Mohammedan. He says native on the coast has an opportunity to follow the short distance from the coast. However, an almost impenetrable coast begins where savage tribes are still deep in the mountains, condition of stark paganism. He says forty-two tribes, each with a different language, a total of, perhaps, 2,000,000 souls in approximately 600 towns.

Paul Robeson, baritone, starring in "Show Boat", now playing in London, England, elicited the following from the critic for the 'Daily Sketch'
"Paul Robeson performed the extraordinary feat of practically packing the stalls of Drury Lane at his Negro spirituals yesterday afternoon.
"I hope that at his next recital every seat in the house will be filled for his singing is the most attractive thing in London at the present time of the month, a little convict song, "Water Boy, of 'Deep River', and of 'Steal Away to Jesus' were absolutely faultless – perfect and consummate artistry.
"His glorious bass voice had an amazing tone, and his awful feels (as with anything perfectly done) that there is a reserve of strength behind it. And his charming presence and modest bearing add to the appeal of his art.
"He was accompanied with sympathy and occasional lifted up his voice in chorus. It is greatly to be hoped that Sir Alfred Butt may give us another afternoon like this.
"For an afternoon audience the eutherism was remarkable."
bibliographies, antiquities of the recital appeared in the 'Daily Herald', the 'Daily Mirror', the 'Daily News', the 'Star', the 'Morning Post', 'Westminster Gazette, and many other leading London newspapers.
AROUND THE TOWN IN MUSIC
To Develop Spirituals
The music department at Morgan College, under Mrs. Shirley G. McCann, will make a special effort this year to develop spirituals and folk music.
Considerable work has already been done along this line by Dean John W. Haywood, with the male and female quartets.
Under the dean's supervision, these groups sang over the radio frequently.
THINGS THEATRICAL
Try And Give One
Back in the good old year of 1907, before theatre goers demanded the spectacular the daring, a comedy that would give a "refined" performance.
The word refined was actually stressed, too. The play was entitled "Booker T. Washington", and the much refined vaudeville stunts followed each act of the play, but the show put a show on the road now that doesn't save or attempt something that a little daring. His show would be courageous enough to have all top in no time. And even if he defined, proper skits, that even the most conservative would approve, he'd have better sense than to divert the fact, by ablunding "If you like the show give us a hand," one comedian told his audience. And there's lots of truth in that. But it all depends on the end of show.
Vitaphone acts were never meant to be applauded, except at the end of the act. But, sometimes actors sense their voice to clear and distinct, folks just must give them a hand.
Just at the most highly dramatic point, when the villain is about to make his confession, out breaks your next door neighbor with a piece of heavy hand work, and course the girl goes into him takes up the air at any rate, you missed the very words you wanted to hear, and the play is ruined for you.
Maybe an actor is putting over his wares in rare style, don't pat for him, he can't hear you. And besides, the fellow next to you pald his two bits, and he's entitled to a little consideration.
Colored Actors Improve "The Negro actor is no longer looked on as a curiosity," says Bill Bojangles) Robinson, "but is gradually benig given a place in the theatre where much credit is reflected on him."
Several years ago, a company producing a colored act was a curiosity. In a word, colored actors were merely freaks to the theatre-going public. According to the caping, it has taken 75 years for the Negro actor to get where he is to
At the rate he is traveling now, it should not be long before he is given a place beside the white actor. A London paper commenting on Paul Robeson's singing in "Showboat" said: "His singing of Ol' Man River" is undoubtedly the most outstanding number in the show. His voice is wasted, though, because he only comes in once; he outclasses the other performers, though, in the short time." This case it is a situation where ability is so pronounced that even appearing for a short time, he is given preference over the others. The difficulty that the colored actor experiences in being recognized on his own merits, too, tends to detract a great deal from George Bias, the rising young Baltimore songster, be called the "black Gene Austin?" Why not George Bias?
According to a letter sent the AF-RO from Mr. Bias, this name was given him by the New York people, not knowing his real name. Surely in the near future, colored actors will be accepted for what they can do themselves, and not that they are like some white actor.

DALLAS, Texas. — The theatres and members of the race are up in arms because of the rigid program of segregation laid down by Mrs. Ethel Boyce, white, theatrical censor. The white woman, in a letter to theatre owners, declared that no mixed casts will be permitted on any company or vaudeville bills. The entertainers must be all white or all covered, she whitens. Rare enforcement of sectional sealing for each race will also be a part of her work, she has announced.

Gloom hunters who write that youth of today care nothing for parents, will get a setback if they talk to George Bias, youthful Columbia Phonograph Artist.
"I want to succeed," says the young songster, "in order that man may give comforts that he should have in her old age. I wasn't a bad kid when I was little." Mr. Bias continued, "but I didn't like school and of course, this caused my mother lots of worry. My cutting school was due to my desire to lighten her burdens."

Mr. Bias, once a pupil at St. Peter's Clayton school first came before the public as solostel with the former Regent Symphony Orchestra. He spent 22 months here, during which time opportunity was given to make a tryout with the Columbia Phonograph Co.
Previous to his appearance at the Regent, Mr. Bias sang at Landon's Cafe, though two years ago, he was being able to sing, our subject says the most he did was church music, having been an altar boy one time.
Sang Ann Compose
While opposing the Regent,
George sang a composition, "I've
Been Trying To Forget You", which
made for the Columbia
Phonograph Co.
It is his purpose, he says, to show the white man that the colored artists are capable of singing music other than blues and spirituals.
Does Not Copy Austin
Although billed as the Blake Gene Autry Museum, he immitates him, but merely sings as he heels, declares the artist. He has never had any formal music instructors he says, but just does his best to please his audience.
Two years ago, he entered a quartet singing "The Lion Tamers Harmony Four," in a contest at the Maryland Theatre, but the decision was given to a white quartet, despite much disapproval on the part of the audience.
Mr. Blias came to the city this week to finish some songs he and the band performed. The latter wrote the music for his songs he is featuring on records.
Artists Must Be Different
"The only way for race artists to get ahead is to produce something different," declares our subject. "You may be good in your way. in a big theatre, but let an original something long — you then fade out of the scene."
Connie's Inn, in New York, has tried to sign Mr. Blas up with them, but he hasn't decided yet what he

MUSE DOUBTS GOLDBERG ABILITY TO MAKE GOOD
organize of colored This you will see I mean the thought actor, will represent a $40,000 bond. Then in the衣柜 some code their clothes Goldberg dress sheet, protected and the colored show business will be on a more business like basis.
In my last review of the inside conditions of the T. O. B. A., it was plain that each year just about this time attractive press she vided colored artists and great produc- tions she had great profits were offered those who accepted. Before the ink on my last article was dry, Jack Goldberg, white, of New York, a well known theatrical man who has experienced with our artists, announced that he had con- consolidated his circuit with the art-theater Circuits Circuit, with the a- worm T. O. B. A. (Theatrical Owners Booking Association).
Like an angel from the celestial heavens, Mr. Goldberg with new production money invites 500 actors to his organization, but there is a lot of work to do. Q. B. A. will be the booking agents, although for years they have failed to live up to their pre-session promises. The most elaborate of the bookings is the sheet. The booking is upon a basis of 50% of the gross, with a guarantee of $1,000; which guarantees the performer his salary, each show to equipment and railroading and other expenses to be taken one of the 50%, leaving $1,000 to cover the company free of all other expenses.
Impossible
This is marvelous! It figures out about $50 per capita for artists alone. With this arrangement, Mr. Goldberg and his association are to gamble on a position after the company to pay railroad costs, production costs, lithographs, commissions, and general publicity.
After three years experience with the T. O. B. A. houses I find that this is both impossible and impractical.
First, in the event that some of these theatres do not earn the $1,000 guaranty, and do not have the address with the T. O. B. A. the T. O. B. A. contracts distinctly and specifically state that they are not responsible for the theatre managers or owners.
Eddie Lemon's Case
Citing a case, to withhold Eddie Lemon's payment of the "Dashin' Dinah" Company, held a contract with a Mr. Bordeau of New Orleans with a guarantee of the management. Mr. Bordeau refused to pay the full amount of the guaranty and paid Mr. Lemons $600, a shortage of $400, told him to try and get the
Mr. Lennons appealed to the T. O. B. A. the booking agents, but until Mr. Lennons even not even a promise. Also, the T. O. B. A. quickly called his attention to the not responsible for Mr. Bordenaux's high-jacking methods. If Mr. Goldberg has a protection for the T. O. B. A. for this $1,000

IOWA, DAVENPORT, MARSHALL-
TOWN.
We are almost through, in a fortnight, four which seems to have been more like a dream than anything else will have been ended. We are not in the least tired, and yet every foot we step on gives us a peculiar feeling of satisfaction that one has when nearing the place that is dearest to him—home, in our city of Philadelphia.
it may not be believed, but it is never true that states display sharp differences in musical achievement, indeed they are in the western state one may discern strange contrasts. Iowa can well be considered as one of his number. The Negro population in the western and central parts of the state. There is with but an occasional exception some spirit at least. In the extreme east, the Negro population is not be admitted that it was our privilege to have visited one town in East Iowa namely, Davenport, yet Davenport was not in the towns in presenting us at all. In the West and Central parts (Des Moines excluded of course), there is some life at the complete standfall. Even the usual procedure of arranging an appearance is thus a committee appointed to represent the matter. It is not a responsible person. But the custom there makes it necessary for the whole church body to act upon the matter. It is not involved in that part of the country. The minor ones at first then the major ones—to spread musical culture and acknowledge the manner of doing things mergerally.
To say that there is something fascinating and exhilarating about motorizing is merely restating an old fact: we are often times when the driving of a car is not so agreeable and that time comes in retracing one's steps. We only had to do so because the country co-operated so beautiful. But in those states where co-operation was not quite so keen is necessary to traverse the country to investigate the lack of response, then cover the same territory to do the actual recitals. Iowa was one of these states. We did not see him, but we could see him bordering his neighbors the second time for it possesses the most beautiful farm-land in the country. We do not remember seeing him in the lily pond or lily mantle during our stay, certainly not along the main highways. So to the easterners who are desirous of improving our own beauty, Eastern landscape we comment.
Back to Marshalltown where we had a small audience, and our reservation to meet many conditions in the state came to an end. We felt repaid for what we found and we are now ready to want to find out conditions as they exist, do not take the other fellow word too seriously, find out for yourself, says Your Musician.

Intra-Fraternity-Sorority
Among the rather exclusive social events o the convention week was the Inter-Fraternity dance and beautifully arranged formal dances of the season, and was given at New Albert Auditorium on last Wednesday evening in honor of the members and beautifully arranged members, the Medicos with their wives and friends. The guests were received and made at ease by the cordiality of the Inter-fraternity committee, to chairman, Carrington Davis, Howard H. Murphy, Grafton Moore and Miss Mary Johnson, and were assisted in making the evening enjoyable by members of the Alpha Kappa Alpha, the members of the Alpha Kappa Alpha, Delta Sigma Theta, Phi Delta Kappa, Zeta Phi Betas and Alpha Phi Alpha, members of the Kappa Alpha Phi, Chi Delta Mu, Phi Beta Sigma, Omega Phi and the Sigma Phi Phi Sororities.
Once in the hall, the guests were wafed away into the room, where the presence of so many of the fairer sex from everywhere, so chic, and budding and lovely, and then the gallant knights, handsome and romantic, gifted us of calm, joy and contentment.
Then, too, the orchestra stage almost completely hidden by drooping flowers that hung from the ceiling, and potted plants that were forming view only to the young lady seated among the orchestra, making every string of her banjo say something, while the lady at the piano turned her view on us as never before, this with seven or eight other instruments, without a doubt, gave to the appreciative gathering an added enjoyment. Now, whether it was because so many instruments included in this affair or the ingenuity of the hosts and hostesses, that ordered the punch, which was served the entire evening, to be as it was, will always be the usual punch and spirit that continued the evening through, due to the punch. of course, made everybody forget the intense not evening and the uncomfortableness of the guests. So taking all in all, the affair was a brilliant one and proved quite the lovest of the season.
At intervals between the dances, among the hundred or more amongst the following were glimpsed among the guests:

ACHING JOINTS
Mr. A. S. Jackson writes from Rutherfordton, N.C. "I would up mornings and my joints would act up. I would feel sleepy and I would feel like I wanted to work. "I heard of Black-Draught and how high it was recommended to cook in the oven. So now I keep it in the house all the time. It keeps me in splendid shape." Pains in your joints and muscles are often the result of being absorbed into the system instead of being carried off in a natural manner. These waste products cause a great deal of trouble to many people, and much relief is offered, by seeing to it that the bowels act regularly and freely every day. Thedford's Black-Draught should be taken as often as necessary to open the bowels and put them in a healthy state of daily activity.

the first Battalion National Guards under the command of Colonel West A. Hamilton, of Washington, are in camp studying actual combat problems. This small company of men who are mostly graduates of Howard University and who completed training at the Riverside Officers Corp. that school, three to five years ago, are the largest number of colored reserve officers combined in one special battalion.
The "Bar Company", as they are known, because every member of the Army was a member for years, bar on his shoulder, have shown themselves very apt in practical training, as the first battalion have adopted a unique coat of arms as their emblem. The emblem is a yellow star mounted by a chief with three stars, these stars were taken from the Coat of Arms used by Washington, the first member of the regiment, and designed by Lieutenant J. B. Lomack, of Washington. The motto o the regiment, which is being formed from West A. Hamilton with Major H. O. Atwood, commandant of the first Battalion, and in which the members of the regiment are missioned, is "Per Vim Et Virtum", which means 'By Valor and Courage'. The whole is surmounted by the crest of the well-known Minutemen of OF.

The Havana, Red Sox, who have been burning up the diamonds in the coal regions of Wes Virginia, Pennsylvania and Ohio, showed that they were not so hot here Sunday, by dropping the scores to 12 to 1 and 8 to 0.
Rain Of Home Runs
It was home run day for "Babe Ruth". Wilson, for the chunky second-baseman rapped out two in the first contest in addition to connecting for a double, in the second contest in connection for a home run and a triple each, with Holloway running wild on the paths. Yokely and Hayes. Yokely, pitching the first game, allowed the Cubans but four and Hayes and Bates in nightcap innings. The Sox crushed thru for a total of 28 hits in the two games, and even "Gissy" Giseman, former hurler with Jim Keenner's Lincoln Giants, could not miss that too much. It was too much Black so that's all.
Everybody Hits
Every one of the Taylormen hit safely at least once during the two games. Manager Taylor, himself, and upon his various appearances at the plate, Eggleton rapped out a three bagger and in the second game, both games, he faced him upon his various appearances at the plate.

THE PASSING REVIEW
THE NATIONALS ARE ON at Bordentown now, and the ranks of the contestants are becoming thinner and thinner as the deciding matches near.
We only hope that what we warned of in these columns in the issue of July 21 will not occur. We mean too much socializing for the ERB. ERB is the greatest thing and for. For the spectators this is a mighty fine thing and in moderation it is a good thing for the players.
But the round of carousing that has been inadulged in by some of our players is a thing entirely unnatural for. We until the tournament is over before you go on a spree, but if you find that you won't be able to withstand the temptation for six days then don't send in your entry. Players in the nationals, if out to win, must be in good condition.
Let us hope that the Bordentown players will be in better condition than some were at Hampton last summer.
THE HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE in racial realms of fistiana, so the Nordic press informs passed from George Godfrey to Larry Gains at Toronto, Canada, last Wednesday night.
We say the borough presides over us because we were not aware, that even with his contendency for the world's heavyweight crown, George Godfrey was holder of the aforementioned title. But leaving the technicalities, George's greatest worry was not his loss of the title to Gains because of a foul lick, but a $2,000 fine and a 30 day suspension in all places under the jurisdiction of the National Boxing Assoc.
Godfrey's contract called for 30 per cent of the gross receipts, which were reported at between $1,400 and $15,000. You can imagine "Gawg's embarrassment and chagrin when told of the verdict and you can almost imagine it." Interesting in comparison to Godfrey's loss on a foul is the loss on the same of Johnny Risko to Roberto Roberti, and since the baker boy's loss writers and fans have been agog over this matter. Words on the foul are impossible, while special on matters of the squared circle, have called meaning when applied to the Godfrey-Gains flasco.
Says the eminent Igo:
"I make this statement and defy any bayer living to dispute it. It is a statement, impossible-to-inflict a foul while the recipient of the blow is wearing a 'protector' That's what these contrivances are for. That's why they were invented: to preclude ANY CHANCE OF INCAPACITATION. I defy any twenty boxers who have challenged fouls of the bayer's green of them did not PRETEND that they were incapacitated.
Some blows go a trifle low and hit the protector, but these blows CANNOT incapacitate a fighter. To prove that most of them have lied about their hurts I'll submit to a blow hard enough to knock me down and don't stay down as most of them do when they're looking for an out.
Like William Muldoon, I insist that a man wearing a metal protector can't be injured so badly that he has to grovel on the floor because he has been hurt where the SA was. He is not allowed to blow the cup, but there is no more chance of disabling the fighter than there would be to mar the INSIDE of a base drum just because it had been struck on its head with the stick.
William Muldoon said rightly not too long ago that in the old days the cup was unheard of. He is for abolishing the cup, and IM WITH HIM ON THAT. Do away with them and there will be less claims of foul!
I hope that Muldoon, knowing all the tricks of the trade, will be able to work on the case without fight without it for that period and see what the result will be. Nature is a better protector than the cup, in the first place. The cup invites a claim of foul and there have been too many of them. And here is the worst angle of it. There is plenty of room on the case to have a laugh, the favorite. He COULD come up with wagers on his shoulders.
He COULD come to the conclusion that his friends—every one that bet on him—was going to lose their money. A claim of foul would save the money, for the wise gamblers always stipulate that the bets are on the case, even if a winner ever has a chance that their bet was going to claim foul, say nothing about bets off, and cash their bets through victory on a foul. The man losing ground could also inflict the foul and save his face—and their money.
But not saying the foul was the worst, the wholesale fouling of the cup and COULD and WILL have something to do with it. Abolish the cup and set foul hitters down for ONE YEAR."

A MIGHTY FINE PLAN is the one now on foot to stage a grid classic in Chicago during the World's Fair of 1933.
Already Howard has been considering a game in the Windy City with Wilberforce or Tuskegee as the opponent and now with the ball started rolling by other schools it appears that some fire is to come from the field. From reports coming from out Chicago-way a meeting is to be held soon at the call of Aaron Payne, former Howard backfield star, but now a City prosecutor in Chicago represents to present the case to the Commission of the Chicago Valley, Sam Huston, West Virginia Collegiate, Bluefield, and Paul Quinn. It is no hard job for the average football fan to imagine a pairing of any two of these teams that would make a fine football game. The two teams are the University of Chicago and there is much discussion anent a Hampton-Tuskegee struggle. Editor Robert S. Abbott, president of the Hampton Alumni Association, is reported as being very favorable toward the latter pairing and equally prominent alumni of other schools are just as determined to have them play. The committee is also discussing the issue. Heading the committee to stage the intercollegiate games here in 1933 is Alonzo A. Stagg, grand old man of the University of Chicago and the most prominent gridiron mentors of the country will assist him in the game. It does not seem that it would be a fine thing to stage two games which would decide the national supremacy among race schools in football. He would be accomplished thru a series of eliminations before the time for the Chicago games in which the best teams in the southwest, mid-west and east would be picked and drawings made for the first game, the third team to play the winner. This would give schools in Alabama, Oklahoma, and Texas teams in Ohio, Indiana, Virginia, the District of Columbia, and as seen by the now would furnish an aed test for national honors.
We humbly submit our suggestion to the committee.
**I WON'T BE LONG NOW.** five or six weeks at least, before local fans will be able to see a little world's series of their own right here in Baltimore, for already plans have begun for the series between the Black Sox and the team of white All-Stars picked from teams in the National League and the National League. Ed Romme, Leif Grove, pitcher, Joe Boley and others, banded into an aggregation headed by Fritz Maisel of the Orioles, are going to try to wallow the locals this year to avenge that string of defeats suffered last fall. Our Mr. Yokley will no doubt be very pleased to act host to the Chicago Cubs in the International. And since it is more than likely that the great "Hack" will be with us are long, it might not be amiss to pass along a little of the history attached to his name. "Hack," whose real name is Lewis Robert Wilson, is 28 years old and was born in the Pennsylvania coil region near Philadelphia. He was a kid in the Widow's Lane and they do say that when "Hack" was a kid he was one of the toughest eggs in that region.
He used to play on a team owned by Dougherty in the summer but in the winter he would box unofficially. He went to the Blue Ridge to play in the Carolina League, where his name because he's built like the "back of a hack." So if Wilson comes here watch for his battle with Yokely and incidentally watch "Babe Ruth" Wilson of the Sox and his reaction to the opposing pitchers. We were still anxious to run a little elimination series in the East to play in the National League, and the Cuban Stars, leaders in the East and methinks they will stack up favorably with any race aggregation in the country. And don't be misled-Baltimore can be dependent on turn out should any of the games be played in theimental City.
And while on the matter of baseball we notice a secluded item about the Brooklyn Royal Giants. You may remember we were inquiries about them a fortnight or so ago. Say the article (and we don't know when it comes to the Warriors) that Upper Deck UPPER NEW YORK STATE and are playing a stellar brand of ball. To date (two weeks ago, they have played THIRTEEN games LOSING ONLY ONE."
The capitals are ours but they prove what we have always said. Strong sends his men up in the woods of New York and then they have won a win but one game. And imagine playing only thirteen games so far this season. That is one reason that Nathaniel Strong fought against the league. Need I say more?
A FAIR EXCHANGE, say we of the coaching job at Sam Huston College down in Texas. Taking the place of Bill Taylor, who resigned to accept the coaching post at Morgan College is E. C. Turner, former West Virginia Collegiate Institute star. Morgan and Sam Huston should be thankful.

McVey Thrown Out Ring
GHICAGO, III.—(ANP.)—Jack McVey, contender for the middleweight championship, and Jock Malone, white, the self-styled St. Paul flash. Malone, the contender for the middleweight fighter near his weight, were thrown out of the ring here Wednesday night in the windup of Promoter Packey McFarland's boxing show at the U.S. Olympic trials. The action of the referee in declaring a "nocontest" occurred in the middle of the eighth round, after both fighters, in spite of the yells of the referee, that stallled him. The action continued to stall and pet each other around the ring. The purse of both fighters will probably be healed up by the Illinois Boxing Commission.
EDWARDS SHOWS HAIN HEELS

(Br. THOMAS LURRY)
NEW YORK—Seven thousand fans saw the Lincoln Giants doubly trounced by the Cuban Stars who bounced by the scores of 8 and 6 to 4.
The visitors sent their star right hander, Eli San, to the mound in the opening game, and the giants didn't do to Eli in that first inning wasn't worth doing. The right hander was removed in favor of the veteran, Oscal, after the Broncos had scored five runs, second and third bases occupied, and the other hitter was netted. The team had netted the Lloyd tribe six runs.

LANE WILL CAPTAIN COACH ABBOTT LOSES A. & T. FOOTBALLERS 8 MEN ON TIGER SQUAD
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE. Ala. Tuskegee will be without the services of Wooten. Steward, Paul Smith, the brainy field general, and W. Harris during the ensuing season, it was learned this week.
The services of the great star, Stevenson, are assured. So it will be the task of the Tiger Mentor to fill these gaps. Others who have not yet met the coming year are to come to the coming year are Tadlock, Bailey, d Shanklin. With all this power missing from the Tuskegee backfield and line the probable strength of Cleve L. Abbott's addition cannot be accurately gauged.
Tuskegee has a very heavy schedule. The opening game will be played in the Bowl on September 28 and the Grand Prix on October 14 with participation at Atlanta University at Spiller's Field. Atlanta Georgia, which will take place this year on December 7 the Tuskers will play at Georgia Tech and the Tuskers simply to round out the schedule. The question has been asked many times as to why the cadets are tackling the Tennessee team and why it was to set at rest much speculation that the Tuskegee Institute Athletic Department issued the above statement: that the two games had been arranged merely to round out the schedule. Only 16 Days Conference rules forbid membership teams from engaging in the opening game. The Tuskers will be followed a week later with a game with the inter-collegiate champions of the Agricultural and Technical College. Greensboro will be followed A and T. Game will be one of the hardest on the Tuskegee schedule.
In New York late in March and run

Seed Manifest
In considering the opportunities or wholesale leisure time and the seeds in allied social leisure, the colored group community wide activities or opportunities for social betterment is more and more manifest. While colored people reside in close proximity to other groups, it is little or no planning to assemble their inclusion in the cultural, health or public recreation activities. Even the colored groups that such activities are being promoted on a community basis, this group is selom approached, welcomed or procured for in the general plant; non-colored groups that serve a mission toward a division of facilities secured through municipal funds or bond issues. A gesture some sections, indicating noteworthy service to emphasize this general situation. Millions of colored children and adults of this racial group represent a tenth of our population, have ever felt the need to be in their neighborhood, and thousands mode have not yet received the tremendous values of secure time guidance or trained leadership in play or recreational activity.
"Covered Wagon" Stage
What I have thus far said, is main- to indicate that the development leisure time opportunities for Negris is in the "covered wagon" wage. The wagon would also consider that tremendous strides have been made in various phases of the leisure one problem, especially in connection with the development. There is an increased interest and empathy in all parts of the county, on the part of public officials, leaders, and students of facilities in this field, funded by the Harmon Foundation, one communities have secured, for example, playground property, the Eighthousen or twenty plays for Negroes have been added the quota in a single year (2926), in two or three cities of the Southwest, and in one city, with national funds, have provided golf
urses for the exclusive use of Neps.
Additional park areas have been made available through private and public agencies. A number of sites in connection with their municipal programs have appointed or accepted the cooperation of the public to assist their predeployment departments in developing a free time program, not only children, but to include adults.

EMPLOYMENT ON UPGRADE SAYS URBAN LEAGUE
BY T. ARNOLD HILL
(National Urban League, Industrial Relations Department).
If the favorable situation Negro wage-earners can be taken as a gauge for the country as a whole one would be justified in concluding that unemployment is rapidly declining. The Negro wage-earners for July in many sections showed surprising gains in face of the seasonal industrial shifts that are always forced during the summer months. The Government counted for by the opportunities at summer resorts due to the extreme hot weather in the East, and to an unusually large number of construction and large repair jobs opened to them. Reports cover a wide area as the following accounts show:
The recent survey it was found that the unemployment situation has been relieved, so that 80% of those out of work during the winter and early spring have been employed.
JEFFERSON CITY: "Negroes in large numbers have recently been employed at the state. HillADELPHIA: "Continuing as of last month, the street railway system is undergoing extensive improvement. In this connection track laying crews entirely colored with colored foremen in chage. Also Negro grinders and welders. Building trades are using a large number of Negroes." HOT SPRINGS: "Labor as regards break as compared with other races. Negroes seem to be the most employed are such that Negroes are employed to do anything that they are qualified to do, all things else considered." The Standard Oil Company opened another service station, employing colored attendants. RICHMOND: "The occupations employed in July have increased considerably." KANSAS CITY: "Unskilled and semi-skilled labor has been more in demand than Negroes, but half the operations probably account for the above fact."
SPRINGFIELD, Ill.: "Forty new positions for men as laborers of the MILWAUKEE Co. the transcontinental line which passes through Springfield were opened up."
MILWAUKEE: "We have not been satisfied demands for dumplies and other foundry help. Employers from Racine are seeking foundry help from Milwaukee. A Negro for the first time in this city of Milwaukee is the Fireman's Union (Stationary boilers). OMAHA: "Accounting to reports and a comparison of reports in our office Negroes are being placed generally this year in building trades. More than 100 jobs now on file can not be filled."
Unfavorable Conditions
KANASA: "Kansas waitresses were dismissed from a large drug store, and were replaced by white help. Negro bus boys were discharged from a club and were replaced by Filipinos.
HA. Fla.: "A few Negroes are still being removed and whites given positions. Wages for domestic and common laborers are both low and for many racks they are taken without complaint. This was not so six months ago."

Even tho it was administered on his own and only sweetie, a cave man kiss cost John Johnson, 25, 1536 N. Carey street, $25 and costs in the Northwestern police station. Thursday.

"Were you angry with each other?" asked the skeptical jurist.
Miss Matthews, "but it looks like to start with me, judge," said Nora.
