G. O. P. GETTING AWAY FROM THE NEGRO
Party Platform Planks Since
1888 Get Decrease From
122 To 36 Words
LYNCHING CONDEMNED
FIRST 32 YEARS AGO
G. O. P. Control
By CARL MURPHY
Since June 5, 1884, the Republican party has included in its platforms planks of promise to the Negro.
Among the things it promised him are: "full civil and political rights"; 1884: right to cast a "free and unrestricted ballot"; 1888: the enforcement of the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments" were promised in 1908.
Early On Lynchin
Lynchman was condemned first in the republican party platform of 1898 as a "barbous practice." And is a formal and accusatory usurpation of 1892 and 1894. Rights only in courts to take human life were asserted in 1912.
Planks Grow Shorter
The Grow of 1884 in the Negro contained 57 words, and that of 1888, 122 words.
From that time on these planks have been used until in 1816 the Negro is not mentioned at all and in 1828 — 36 words
Black Man A. Keynode
In 1888. John H. Keynode, a Negro in Mississippi, was temporary chairman of the republican national convention, made the keynote speech, and helped in 1920, 1924, and in 1928 Negroes sought in vain to place stronger utterances in the party platform. Lynch in Chicago was pressman in Chicago the G. O. P. met in national convention in 1920, but no sergeant-at-arms was instructed to send an invitation or a seat on the platform to the "Keynode" in 1888.
Getting Away
Evidence in party literature is plaid that the republican party is getting away from the Negro, and doubledless also show that the Negro has gotten away from the G. O. P.
The Planks
G. O. P. plants since 1884 on the Negro are as follows:
Chicago — June 5, 1884.—Candidate for Presidency: James G. Blaine.
We extend to the Republicans of the South, regardless of their former party affiliation, our cordial sympathy and pledge to them our intermesternity but our interest in such legislation as will secure to every citizen of whatever race, or color, the full and complete recognition, possession and exercise of all civil and political rights.
Chicago — June 12, 1888.—Candidate for Presidency: Denjamin Harrison.
Suffrage: We reaffirm our unswerving devotion to the National Constitution and to the indissoluble union of the States; to the autonomy of the Constitution; to the personal rights and liberties of citizens in all States and territories in the union especially.

NEVAL THOMAS TELLS HOW HOOVER DODGED DELEGATION
HOOVER DODGED NEVAL THOMAS FOR TWO WEEKS
SEGREGATION STORY
TOLD FOR FIRST TIME
Hoover Likes His Delega
BY NEVAL H. THOMAS
WASHINGTON, D. C.
So much has been said and
written about our historic
conference with Secretary
Hoover, and so universal is
the misunderstanding of
this man and his dealing
with that overshadowing
issue, that I am forced, in
the interest of historical
accuracy to let him be
seen as he has chosen to be.
Men make their own history;
the historian simply
reads it.
The Quartet
We then formed a quartet which has remained together through many a battle, not only with the other members of the Cabinet, and many officials of both the National and Municipal government. Robert B. Johnson, the Johnson, and A. S. Pinkett of the Washington N. A. A. P. I. have seen in brave combat against Cabinet officers of American Negro, and their efforts have made history.
We had seven conferences with Mr. Work afterward. In the first order, which gave us the first great rift in the walls of governmental caste. There were many-colored officials about this group that could not be bought, caplied or frightened, but which stood immovable from its high demands for
Hoover Nest
We then moved the army to Secretary Hoover's works. He ensconced himself behind his vanguard of a retinue to see him. We tried for days to see him. He would send out messages that he was "busy with great National Issues." You call us Stubborn Cough Quickly Ended by Famous Recipe
Here is the famous old recipe which millions of housewives have found to be the best way to bring up a stubborn, lingering cough. It takes but a moment to prepare and costs little, but it gives real relief even for the needed coughs that usually follow the "Bu."
From any druggist, get 2/4 ounces of Pinex, pour it into a pint bottle and add a little water. Strain the coughs or strained honey. Thus you make a full pint of better remedy than you could but better than you need. It uproars spoils and tastes so good that even children like it.
Not only does this simple mixture scoothe and soothe a patient with surprising ease, but also it is absorbed into the blood, and acts directly upon the bronchial tubes, thus helping to relieve the cough. It loosens the germal phlegm and causes chest soreness in a way that is real relief. It is concentrated of pumice Norway Pine, containing the active agent of cresolcine, a refractory agent in medicine is more helpful in cases of distressing coughs, chest colds, bronchial troubles, and constitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded.

up again tomorrow," his secretary would tell me, and then I would be met with the same old excuse, "Mr. Hoover," I wrote. Mr. Hoover I then wrote, Mr. Hoover for an audience, waited three days and to this day have not met with any acknowledgment I then called again and his secretary repeated the monotonous subterfuge about "great National issues."
I said, "Look here, I am tired of this nonsense about 'great National issues.' I told you in the beginning that we were going to issue, and you tell me Mr. Hoover that our 'great National issue' is as great as any he ever discussed." told him that I was going to issue, and exactly two weeks after our first visit, I made the final call. His secretary offered me the opportunity to issue of Commerce, declined immediately, telling him that our issue was too big for him, that we MUST issue it, and that he was impossible. I said, "Tell Mr. Hoover that if he cannot look after the affairs of this Nation I shall let Black America know it," Hoover Charges. When I got home I found that Mr. Hoover's office had a phone. I called at once and Mr. Nash, one of Mr. Hoover's secretaries, said that Mr. Hoover wanted to see me. I exclaimed, "Oh so sudden, for I have striven for exactly two weeks for an audience with this great public servant. I be there, but I cannot come alone."
He said that Mr. Hoover would not see delegations. I reminded him that the first day we came to see him that he told us that he would not see delegation. He repeated the demand to me alone and I told him I would come as once. I asked Secretary Pinkett to get the other two members of our delegation, and if Mr. Hoover did not see them, he COULD not see me.
Wanted Only One
When the messenger told Mr. Hoover's secretary that we were in a delegation, he sent me a letter to colleagues that I would not go beyond the first suite of magnificent offices. I entered, Mr. Nash greeted me with enthusiasm and started for Mr. Hoover's so glad I was coming. I did not move, saying that I could not without the delegation. He would not see the delegation. "Then, I said, 'tell Mr. Hoover that I decline his invitation. I will wait' entered Mr. Hoover's suite, closed the door, remained about two minutes, and then Mr. Hoover said, 'Mr. Hoover will see your delegation.'
Didn't Know of Segregation
We entered, and found him most graceful, and found him most of the segregation of his colored clerks in the Census Bureau, and explained the harmful results of the policy. He agreed with us, saying that we did not think he did, but that we did not think he did, but that we expected an immediate remedy. The Ohio primaries were only the first in the fight, the fighting so that we could inform that powerful black vote of the state about their candidate who was then in a death struggle with Senator Robert F. Kennedy at the National Convention.
In three days, Mr. Hoover wrote me. "The matter about which we were talking to him, the order to Jim crow bureau dismantled, and the black clerks distributed, and then sent to Ohio for the black candidate or his opponent, and Jackson to witness the fact that he had brought the thing to an end. Curry Reactionary. This man, Mr. Curry, one of the most reactionary Negroes in the history of Jim crowism, DID come, saw what we had done, went back to Ohio and circulated the material, the mobility swallowed the whole ruse and elected Curry to the convention. The Secretary showed masterful manliness. The Senate then laughed in it. The Senate then laughed in bitter debate through all April and May, some senators denouncing us and criticising Mr. Hoover, and others. He has dodged the issue, never admitting that he did the thing.
Promised To Promote Clerks
of appointment of Negro clerks, and the advancement of the able and faithful ones already there. We told him that all were sitting there were over a thousand clerks, and only three colored, which was a monstrous injustice. We told them of their fine superiority, and how they had remained at their low salary, and unimportant position, to see white men soaring from beneath them to high posts and herculeal salaries.
He promised to remedy the awful situation of the lion's delegation, the good will of colored people over the country who did not want to be left the Cabinet with these poor clerks in their plight, and white men in the lion's share of the public fund.
Dodging
The history of this case is one of dodging, manipulation of publicity, keeping the South in ignorance of the North, and trying to grotto into thinking him their friend, of absolute spinelessness before an issue involving the Negro. When this is coupled with his recent triumph over the Confederate South and his promise to give them their "white supremacy" when Windy Heflin and the Ku Klux are his champions. We remember Miss Heflin's success in his Quaker cath which abhors wars and preparations for wars, by weighing us down with crushing armaments, and helping to carry us out the blood of the World War.
I say when we remember all of this, I am forced to believe that there is no hope for relief from our burdens in Mr. Hoover.

NEW YORK.—If Al Smith would raise a finger to assure American Negroes that, while he was not necessarily a warm friend, at least he could not be classed as an enemy, he would receive more Negro votes than any Democrat has ever received."
This is the view of Dr. W. E. B. DuBois in the current issue of the "Nation."
Negroes are incensed against the G. O. P. and Mr. Hoover as never before. For the first time leading politicians like R. P. Church refused to serve on the colored Republican advisory committee.
Flood Report Negroes
Nor will he be for this far to see. If leading Negroes repudiated Coolidge in 1824, they were even estranged in 1928. When he was sent to their problems has been nearly as great as Smith's. He has said not a single public word against outrageousness in the North for Negro education and uplift. When it was brought to his attention that the Red Cross was discriminating outrageousness in Mississippi flood, Hoover at first denied it vehemently; afterwards he denounced a Negro committee of his friends, the Monroe Monument, and when this committee confirmed the evidences of discrimination, he refused to let the committee publish Lily-Whites.
In addition to this, Hoover has joined openly with the "Lily Whites" activist Southern politicians who propose, not to prevent the organization of any effective minority party in which Negroes Hoover knows perfectly well that the dischernishment of the better class Negroes in the South delivers a vengeful black and white.
Hoover, Coolidge, Hughes, Harding, and all Republican candidates who have been elected of these men in the national conventions. After the convention, Mr Hoover proceeds to reorganize only the party of politicians who have support, hlp
Evidence Easy
It was very easy to find evidence for accusing Southern Negro politicians of being racist, and their accusations have been made and proven against white politicians. There is no reason to think that the accusations were any more serious than those of Peter Howard than in the case of the white Bassom Slemp, once Secretary to President Cooleid. The Hoover's political organization Howard was kicked out and prosecuted, while Slemp was put in charge of his Southern political leader in the South regardless of his standing—and there are some who are honest and brave—has been unconcerned ousted by Hoover and his lieutenants.
Al's Chance
Any Reason
Is there any reason why any American citizen, Democrat, Republican, or other person such a creed and publicly announce it? If there is, then American defense of the Constitution there is not, then Alfred Smith ought to have made such a statement. Moreover, I violate the Constitution if asked and urged to do it and that he refused.
Smith Refused
A number of enthusiastic colored folk and friends of colored people put before the advisers of Governor Smith several possible statements he could make: at least he was not an enemy of the American Negro. He refused to say a single word. He refused to let even indirectly anything go out from his headquarters which should seem to represent him as friendly to black

Because the Democratic State Machine is trying to deliver us into the hands of Tammany and its corrupt political machine
Because former Pres. Woodrow Wilson warned us against the danger of ever falling into Tammany's power, he told Fletcher Wilson not only condemned Tammany but on one occasion refused to sit at a dinner table at which Tammany was represented. Tammany and its Candidate believe in social equality between whites and blacks.
Because Ferdinand Q. Morton, a Negro, and Civil Service Commissioner, worked with Tammany and Tammany has given him a white woman as his private secretary.
Because there are 276 Negro candidates in posing positions in New York City under Tammany rule.
Because the Mayor of New York and a member of the Tammany sale is a big gust of the air on his gust is this year, this: "After the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November—I won't want you to know that you will be as welcome in the White House as you are here in New York City."
Because Robert J. Nelson, a Jacksonian in Washington Eagle, is to manage the campaign among the Negroes for Tammany's candidate in Maryland, Delaware, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
Because Neval Thomas, a Negro President of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is pleading for the release of the National Democratic Ticket because Mr. Hoover does not believe in social equality. Because here in Virginia in the last white Democratic State primary, Negroes are committed to participate in the election. Because on April 12, this year, Judge Julien Gunn, of Richmond, Va., appointed J. C. Robertson, a Negro, as recorder in Chancery in Henrico County. Because William Randolph Johnson, a Negro, holds a position in the Juvenile Court, or Court of Domestic Revenge, this name appears on his Directory Board as MR. JOHNSON. Because the Democratic Politicians of this State are trying to deceive us by asking for the release of the thing that they have been condemning for a generation and by doing this they are asking us to forake the true prize. They participate in their attempt to sell out to Tammany. Because the Democratic Party is catering to the Negro vote not only in Virginia but throughout the United States.

Double Political Status Not Permanent In Real Democracy
CINCINNATI, OHIO.—American democracy is a mockery and a lie unless the Negro gets political equality, declared Professor Ralph Bunche, in an address before the 34th annual meeting of the National Municipal League in the Hotel Sinton, here Tuesday. . .
This league session was open also to the Governmental Research Association and National Association of Secretaries.
Prof. Bunche, who spoke on "Negro Political Laboratory", has just been elected head of the department of Political Science on the Howard
He is an honor graduate of the University of California and of Harvard having been a fellow in both institutions. Prof. Bunch said.
"Democracy and its institutions do not permit permanent secession." Political thunder storms of the past few years have driven home with renewed emphasis the stark truth that the nation cannot endure, "half slave and half free."
"If the native-born American Negro whose destiny is inseparable from the nation's power, is inseparable from identical social and a basis of political equality and harmony with the descendants of English, French German, Greek, Italian and Poles who comprise this vast experiment we call America, then our theory of democracy must be a living lie, the formal work of the American embodied the Constitution, a mockery, and the entire experiment, a drear failure."

Christ Spirit Is "Love Gone Crazy" He Tells Union Baptist Congregation
HOME AND SCHOOL
MAKING PROGRESS
Declaring that God never intended to be an omnipotent flunky to people who want to have a good fat time in the world, Dr. Mordecai Johnson, President of Howard University, urged a crowded audience at Union Baptist Church to believe in and not to believe about the literal teach-sermon on "Love" Sunday morning.
Emphasizing the statement that churches as a whole have never believed in Jesus, Dr. Johnson declared that the real spirit of Christ had not made sufficient inroads into human conduct to make it possible to tell the difference between a Christian and un-Christian woman as it effects their attitude toward human questions.
White men, he said, adopt the attitudes of their community so tar as guard the Negro is concerned for the teachings of the Church in the matter. Even our own ministers do not apply the real doctrine of Christ and millions of people believe about Christ the few, he said, who follow in Christ.
Teachings Literal
Christ meant, said the speaker, that we put into actual practice the exhortation that if your brother smite you on some cheek, turn the other also. This did not mean that Christ was any coward, he said, but it revealed his real power. No man who deliberately faced the Cross or Cross as did Christ, could be called onward.
Christ wanted to teach that force was wrong and that men, groups and nations who resort to force perish. Dr. Johnson rappelled the system of enlightenment, the masses of understanding that the leading nations of the world, including France, Germany, England and the United States still resort to force to keep groups of people under the system labo that some of them might live in lux-

The home and school are the two outstanding institutions which have to some degree adopted the spirit of Jesus Christ. There force is being eradicated and love being enthroned in power.
as a governing force. The time was when a disobedient boy was slapped to the floor by the principal; but now every means of persuasion is being used to develop the internal incentives to goodness in child life. The same spirit of tolerance is pervading the successful

Dr. Johnson was introduced by Dr. Stephen B. Mason, and referred to United Baptist as one of the three great churches in this country who had given unbroken devotion to one master for long number; of years.

CHURCH 60 YRS. OLD
Letter Of Regrets Read From President Coolidge
WASHINGTON D. C. — A simple but impressive ceremony marked the laying of the cornerstone of the new Lincoln Memorial Congregational Temple at Eleventh and A. streets, northwest, last Sunday.
The stone was laid by the William H. Freeman Lodge of the Grand United Order or Odd Fellows under the direction of W. H. Davis, grand master, and the Rev. George A. Parker as master of ceremonies.
Preceding the actual placing of the cornerstone on the floor was made by Dean Davie Butler Pratt, of the Howard University school of religion. "The corner stone," he said, "stands for Christ, and the corner stone of our civilization in this country is Jesus Christ." $110,000 Church.
After prayer, to those who toiled and sacrificed to make possible the building of the new $110,000 church, Dean Pratt said:
"This corner stone illustrates the thought I bring to you. We in this age are in danger of being overcome by material things that threaten that this corner stone is in its desire pleasure and ease and luxury. But I believe, friends, we have here an evidence that that is not to be said of our civilization. The response this church and the community is evidence that the church is still esteemed by us, and I trust that this corner stone may be a memorial to the things of the spirit." Coolidge Writes
President Coolidge wrote the Rev. Robert Coolidge expressing his regrets that he could not be present and extending his cordial greetings to those assembled for the corner stone laying. "I trust that the work so begun." the President wrote, "may have the fullest measure of success, the religion found the development of a race or a nation."
The Rev. Brooks presided. Invocation was offered by the Rev. J. C Olden, pastor of the Plymouth Congregational Temple, took part in the
Started On The Spot
The Lincoln Memorial Congregational Temple had its beginning on the very spot on which the new edifice is being erected. 60 years ago The Freedmen's Bureau erected a building on the site for community work in 1868 and was purchased by the American Missionary Association, and the Lincoln mission was established and maintained for a number of years. In 1880 the organization was strengthened by a number of community committees formed by the Congregational Church. In 1900 the Lincoln mission was united with the Lincoln Park Temple, and these two organizations formed the Lincoln Memorial Temple Congregational Church. There have been only three master sites this union, the St. Mary's, Mr. Smith and the Bet Brooks.
The new church will be completed in January.

DR. FRED PALMER'S SKIN WHITENER
NEW YORK. — The one and only William "Boyangles" Robinson assisted by the charming and petite Mrs. Bill, entertained the entire "Blackbirds" outfit at Small's Paradise, Monday night.
It was just the kind of party you would imagine the Robinsons would put over. Jam-up a whoopie-wow. Everybody connected with "Blackbirds" from door to door and a few friends that had a good measure well if all flocked into the Paradise around twelve-thirty to find the gate end of the club set up in banquet style and the gest piping hot steak. French fried potatoes, creamed green peas, lettuce and tomato salad, relishes, rolls, mints and anything your do, all of which. There were balloons, noise makers, a table, a fresh cut flowers on each table and with such a background, fun began.
While the guests devoured their cupier, Small's Revue went on — the handsome Paul Meers and all Mr. Leigh Whipper took charge and all private fun began. "Bo" made a sneech, but if such a thing were possible, "made feel better than" — then Lew Leslie, the producer, said the appropriat thing.
A singing contest came off between Bojangles and Mantan. Bojangles sang out of this jungle. Bojangles won a Hall stopper made a bow, Adelaide Hall stopped the show, Aidaard sang her "I can't give you anything but love" with little Chester and Adelaide. Tom Moore, and Snake Hips' — Earl Tucker, were presented. Then we met 'Arthur Bruce' the then manager, Mark Ragley the business manager, George Looley the straight man, and Saul Bates who came in evening clothes (Pajamas and high hat) Peg-leg Bates did a turn, Elizabeth Welch turned on her smile, Blue McAster, Crawford Jackson and Joe Cecil McPherson his chair, the ladies of the ensemble and Sutton the stage man-steped out next. They were followed by Pat Davis, the cornetist, Shorty Lucas, the handsome George Rickson, pianist. Charlie Coogan and all the stage hands. He balanced some more, visited some more, cried when we had to leave. There will never be another party like it.

WHAT A DO
ABOUT
CONSTIPATION
There IS a way of overcoming the tendency to constipation. And here is how you CAN PROVE it.
The next time your bowels need any assistance, don't take the first laxative that comes to mind. Take one the drugist can assure you is made with CASCARA. It has an effective force, and it's good for the system. Indeed, it helps make good blood. For cascara is nothing but the bark of a tree. The Indians chew this bark, and live to an old age without a day's sickness. That helps them cascaraize the hepatic system. They will usually function well for SEVERAL DAYS. One more dose—no larger, and perhaps smaller than the first—and the bowels function of their own accord for a still longer time. Until you don't feel the need of any aid of any sort for weeks-on-end.

DARK TOWER TO CLOSE
NEW YORK. — Cards were this week announcing the closing of the Dark Tower as a private tea and club room. The Tower, which celebrated its first birthday, Sunday night, has downtown and the Village. It filled a much-needed want but apparently did not reach a sufficiently large or interested group.
The anniversary Sunday night however, made one feel that the idea of a large, well-wrong. The foyer and three rooms were packed to overflowing and did they have a good time. Nappy was at the piano and between drinks, cigarettes and the best of food, the bumping was righteous. A La Tow-Style, the artists present did stump.
In the crush were the Fitzherbert Howells, Harry Austine, Harry Millers, Jules Bledsoe, Jean Bolden Smith, Stella Johnstone, Eddie Wesserman, Bob Douglas, Caska Bond Emery Bonner, Bertha Lamber, Lucille Randolph, Bertha Bradley, of Bridgeport the Dismonds, Howard Beardens, Bessie Miller the Julian Kewsys of Boston, John Killingsworth the Peytons, Nettie Black, Eddie theencreator Lorenri Lemus. of Washington, Bob Young of Baltimore, the Leander Simms, and Alphonne Tribe.

So, the only habit you get from carcara is that of natural and normal regularity. How different from things one must usually repeat on a table is the ideal laxative; and the familiar little candy Cascaret is doubtless its ideal form. Children beg for these tasty tablets, and many are taking ANYTHING else for the purpose. And EVERY drusestore has them.

MR. HOOVER'S SPEECH REGARDED AS PLEDGE
MR. HOOVER'S SPEECH REGARDED AS PLEDGE
WHITE VOTE WANTED
Hoover Willing To Approve
Negro To Make G. O. P.
Lily White
NEW YORK. — That part of Herbert Hoover's speech in Elizabethbeth, Tenn, on Federal appointive offices has been interpreted by both the colored and white press as a bid for Lily-Wish support in the South. On the New York World editorially says:
"In the contest among Southern delegates for seats at the Kansas City Convention, it was noted that the Lily-White delegates were mainly for Hoover. The management of the Republican state campaigns in the South has been almost wholly in the hands of Lily-Wish power. Hoover himself has shown his sympathies with this group by his declaration in Tennessee.
"He has flouted the loyal colored members of his party in the South, very few of whom will vote, in order to win the votes of white Democrats. That may be good politics, but the lowly potomac law, but the colloidal folk. North who have the ballot will not be unmindful of this shift in the attitude of the Party which has always posed as the friend and benefactor of their people." Pledges to the South Under the caption, Maker The Negro A Pawn, the new Low Times columnist as follows: "In Secretary Hoover's speech especially directed to the South were inserted several minor statements or pledges, which do not attract much attention though they deserve it. One of them was the following: I believe in the merit system of the civil service, and I further that appointee offices must be held by those who deserve the confidence and respect of the communities they serve."
No Colored Appointments
"This sounds harmless enough, but in Southern ears are known only in the South the Negro question is more violently debated than for years, and it is certain that these quiet utterances by Mr. Hoover will be taken there as tantamount to a prosecution, appoint colored morsals, postmasters, federal collectors of internal revenue. It will be regarded as confirmation of many reports that if Mr. Hoover is electored President, the Republican organization in the South will be virtually Lilly-Wood. Democrats More Favorable
"This is full: in line with a great deal of cammaigning now going on in the South. Strange as it may seem, an effort is made to show the Democrat a favorable the black man and social aspirations of the black man than are the Republicans."
Actor's Gun Play Too Realistic; Is Arrested
NEW YORK—James Beskett, 24, an actor, who plays the part of a detective in a show at the Alhambra, is held under $1,000 bail for violation of the Sultan's order. Baskett and Barrington Carter who play in the same show with him had Baskett arrested for threatening them with a .32 caliber revolver. Baskett, in his detective role, carried his gun, rather than "prop" and is said to have carried his gun following a quarrel with the two men.
BIG VOTE ENDS
Continued from Page One
ed in the First Period BIG VOTES which are now in effect.
Right now and up to 9 p. m. October 27th, each one-year subscription counts you 20,000 votes — each 2-year subscription is worth 45,000 votes — every 5-year subscription will allow you 425,000 votes — every 10-year subscription has a value of 900,000 votes.
The 10-year subscriptions are decidedly the most important and it is more than likely that the three dandy automobile. Don't merely try to get just one 10-year subscription. See if you cannot get several of them. The more votes you get, of course, the greater are your opportunities to win the $2,870 Franklin Sedan or one of the two free cars.
No Equal Opportunity for All.
Matter of course, you have a single chance to your credit at this time, you can enter the AFROFS short campaign now on an equal basis with everyone else because there is one more week of the BIG VOTES. The Nomination Blank counts you 10,000 votes — the First Subscription Coupon gives you a chance to the regular subscription votes, for the first subscription you turn in. So, by entering the campaign NOW with just one yearly subscription you would immediately start off with 130,000 votes to your credit. Think then, what a few additional votes would do to you, how quickly just a few good subscriptions would put you away ahead of everybody.
Most Important Time
Between now and next Saturday night in mid-August "Everybody Wins" campaign. Never again will subscriptions count for as many votes as they do now. Then, later, there is a still further decrease in the number of votes given for subscriptions before the campaign comes to its sudden end. Keep in mind that there are only a few short weeks for this campaign — just four weeks from this Saturday night when three people will be made indescribably happy and will realize that they had won automobiles worth $2,870, $1,015 and $695. In addition to all three of these fine automobiles there are hundreds of dollars in cash awards to be distributed to those who take part in the campaign.
Don't Be Late
Nothing is more important than to remember that October 27th, at 9 p. m. is the last chance for the BIG VOTES. Unless you want to take LESS votes for your subscriptions, you will have every subscription possible by that hour. This last warning.
It's up to YOU to out-fort your best efforts during these last BIG VOTE days if you want to be behind the steeper of one of these the steeper of the AFRO will give away, free of ALL cost, to their winners.

Rudolph Fisher Guest 135th Street Library
On Thursday evening, Rudolph Fisher, author of "The Walls of Jericho," was the guest of the 138th Street Branch of the Public Library, where he was a guest. The Walls of Jericho, which a lady reviewer hoped would not be crippled in sales value because it did not have a cabaret, seemed to be a good venue, and the taste in Negro literature, seemed to be for the highly spiced,
has gone into its sixth printing. Dr. Fisher has succeeded in putting over so far, the most representative picture of Harlem. He has depleted the paper and the ink, and introduced of 0'ays, which is truly Harlem, and without which no picture is complete.

Raised Race Issue In New

NEWS SPEAKS OUT
G. O. P. Organ Admits Hoover
Leader Has Ku Klux Ideas
NEW YORK.—Senator George
H. Moses of New Hampshire,
Eastern Manager of the Republi-
can National Committee, has be-
come the storm center with the
part for having raised the race
issue in a speech he made here
before the campaign school of
the Women's National Republi-
can Club, in which he spoke dis-
paragraphed of a New York offical in
New York "dialecting to a white
stenographer of the female sex."
The official to whom Senator Moses made reference was Ferdinand Q. Morton, Negro Civil Service Commission under Tammany Hall and the Democratic appointee under Tammany Hall, to talk, intended to intensify racial animosities, is in line with statements being put out by the Klu Klux Klan. Directly after Senator Moses' attacks, Tammany Hall and the Negro, who immediately protested and likened the New Hampshire Senators' intolerant attitude to that of a 'Heffin'. They did not hesitate to express fear that the incident would lose the Republican majority votes. Demands His Removal. The Amsterdam News, which is supporting Mr. Hoover, proclaimed on the first page of its current issue in large type that "The Republican National Ideas" and in an editorial demands removal of Moses. Says the Amsterdam News, "Thus in these few words all sentiment created for the Republican National Ideas is away and cannot be restored until definite action is taken to restore it."
Senator Moses committed what is regarded by Negro Republicans as the biggest blunder of the campaign toward the end of his talk to white that Mr. Hoover had made certain women when asked if it were true contempt for blacks and other Southern City. He replied: "I do not know, but if any promises have been made by Mr. Hoover, he will fulfill not repudiate them. I do know this — that in Washington there is no colored Tammany Civil Service Commissioner who dictates to a white stenographer the human sex, which as I understand, is done right here in New York City." Aside from being Eastern Manager of the Republican National Committee, Senator Moses wasPermanent Chairman of the Republican Convention in Kansas City. A prominent part in the shaping of Mr. Hoover's campaign policies.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER
False rumors spread more easily during war times than at any other. I have just invest gated the rumor that two colorado soldiers a sentry and a soldier were to assistance, a soldier, soldier, at camp, Meade.
Captain G. D. Perkins, chief of the military morale section, sent me a statement today, saying the rumor and saying "conditions affecting the morale of soldiers were revealed, however, by this investigation and by a more general investigation made subsequently which had led to prompt action, the purpose of correcting it. There are certain elements in the situation which are difficult to handle satisfactorily but there is reason to believe that, a considerable improvement is now on the way."
"DIVORCED"
One time a wolf-dressed all in white. Knocked at my poor heart's door one night. Upon this so-called Angel Dove, I gazed and lavished all my love.
She said she'd make my life complete; And in my heart she took her seat. She sucked my blood, and dried my veins, And filled my body up—with pain.
So one day with outraged shout, I told this demon to:—Get Out! With stirring smile, she sat at airport, and she fell deep in my heart.
But let her sing. LLOYD BERRY. N. R. City.
Hoover Better Wake Up and Take Notice.
To the Editor
Pastor God's sake, ask Hoover, Work and who not, why is it so easy for allen Democrats to invade the party of Lincoln and Roosevelt and bully old Republican regulators without being asked to behave themselves like visitors
The visiting Republicans are not raising hell in the home of the Democrats. This whole business in the south politically. Now the very enemies of the Negro's traditional political party is trying to "hog-tie" that party as they have the Negro. Go forbid it. However wake up like the Negro.
End take care.

The Truth Is That Neither Al Smith Nor Herbert Hoover Care About the Colored Vote in the South.
The Editor: I surely am surprised to see colored papers are for Al Smith. I will vote for Hoover. The Democrats are too foolish to be trusted. The Democrats will ask 'Al how about the Negro vote in the south and how are the Negros treated in the south.
The President Lincoln man and also his父亲 that freed us. We Negroes in the north are going to suffer on account of some Negroes going to vote the Democratic ticket. We a statement about the colored vote in the south. He dare not do it. Ask him and see if he will.

Ballot.

To the Editor.
The other day I was asked by a gentleman, "For whom shall you vote? What is your Party affiliation? Shall you vote as your conscience dictates or blindly follow your Party feeling that your best interest is your own interest? I shall not let Party affiliation be my guide, thinking that one party can do no wrong simply because my fore-parents followed that Party. From the present of the first President, down to the present of the first administration, I feel that there have been men in both Parties hostile to our group as well as excellent men who have had our welfare at heart. The candidate I would really select would be someone who supports our supporters are so anxious to elect him that they use any influence to that means, prejudice, both religious and racial should have no part in the selection. And to vote against a good candidate, be he Quantitative or Religious, be intelligent people of all religions.

Thinks AFRO'S Report of Sessions of Episcopal Convention Was Yellow.
To the Editor:
On October 15th last, on the church page of your valuable paper, there was some "yellow" news sent to you for publication concerning our Friends to be encouraged among colored people in the Episcopal Church, held in St. Augustine's Episcopal Church, Brooklyn, N. Y. Your headlines, "Colored Pews," P. E. Churches, Suggested Weals, Commune Last In Church site, etc. were awful.
The special correspondent of your paper who sent this information to your paper as "news" is trying to damage the statement is read in an AFPRO-AMERICAN of the 13th inst. The facts are these:
A paper on "Brotherhood and the Christian Church" was the Thursday evening session (October 4th) of our Conference, by Rev. Ellis A. Christian, of Grand Rapids, Mich. After the conclusion of the reading, speakers contributed their quorum to the meeting. The Rev. E. S. Thomas, of Germantown, Pa., arose and read this statement of Dr. Lay's, which was found in two recommendations in an article on "What of Our Culture." This was not a series of recommendations brought before our General Conference for action. It was merely the expression of so-called Christian sentiment (following Southern trait) that the Minister about our people and our church's work.
Besides this incorrect and mischievous statement, your correspondent also wrong that the Rev. E. Z. Robert Bennett and Bishop Hires were at the conference's session.

U. S. Ought to Recognize Russian Government Eleven Years Old.
When the Tsar and the Grand Dukes were overthrown in Russia, there was some justification to believe that the revolution. One cannot extend "credit" until there is some accumulated "capital" as security. But eleven years after it was published, the situation is vastly different. A government that could stay for a decade and control the lives of nearly 200 million people, could be recognized as such. In truth it must be recognized in practice if not in theory and formality. The failure or formation of a government circumstances cannot be almost at hostility. Recognition does not mean detailed and unqualified endorsement. Recognition means recognition.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1928
AFRO READERS SAY:
Dr. Bragg Expeats No Change In the Color Line in the Episcopal Church at Present. A respectable Minority Favor Is Elimination. To the Editor: I do not think that you purposely desire to miss the Rev. Dr. G. W. Lay in your last issue by the prominence which you give to certain portions of his essay. In the first place Dr. Lay was not present at our Conference. The Living Church was quoted and commented upon. That was all. Certainly Dr. Lay is entitled to his views. The particular thing which you direct attention to is his view with respect to color communities. He contends that in color places where there is no organized colored Episcopal Church. He contends that in all such communities, in all white Episcopal churches there should be seats for colored people upon the main street. He contends that colored communicants should present themselves at the Lord's Table after the whites have communed. While I think otherwise, yet I am certain that colored people upon the main street call themselves in kind of "hospitality," in a white church, would find no difficulty whatever in accommodating themselves to the rule of making their communion as he suggests. I have no faith that those who choose such accommodations.
I do not expect or hope for any different treatment in white churches, either north or south, where colored people are more politically unfit to draw the inference that the above treatment is endorsed and approved even by all southern white Episcopalians. There is a respectable minority of colored people with respect to the entire abolition of the "color line" in the Church of God, and I know a number of them are quite outspoken on the subject. I have celebrated the Holy New Testament church in the very heart of the South, and I have administered the Sacrament to white people who came forward to receive it, in the midst of the service, kneeling side by side in the midst; and, on one occasion, a white lady knelt at the chancel to receive Holy Communion with several colored persons who previously had been her neighbors in this country "race prejudice" was wholly absent; but I do not know of another other than the Episcopal Church, covering the entire country, where the "race prejudice" held their Triennial meeting in the "Mayflower Hotel" at the Capital of the Nation. At the great meeting now in session in the city of Washington, the organized groups of our colored women, who come up from Southern doctresses, find a welcome in the Catholic Church holding their Triennial meeting in the "Mayflower Hotel" at the Capital of the Nation. At the great opening session at the Cathedral closed aly number of colored churches, "their uniform" on admission at the procession.
The two Negro Bishops, members of the House of Bishops, neither walked together or sat together in the House. The color line does not show the darkness of complexion hinder the Negro Bishops from fellowship with the white Bishops in eating their noon-day lunch in the Willard Hotel. True man do not run away from discrimination, but they stand in their places and gain the victory through the power of the ascended Lord who is at the right hand of God for that very purpose.

The Only Censorship In Mr. Lark's Letter Was the Striking Out of the Word "Negro" In Several Places. This may have weakened Mr. Lark's Letter, At Any Rule Here's His Second Encouragement and It's a Scorcher. To the Editor.
It was with much sincerity of purpose and honest intention that I addressed a letter to Mr. Lark, at the same time as his leadership. I sent it, hoping against hope that its contents would kindle a spark of resentment in the editorial rooms of the AFRO-AMERICAN, against those unscrubulous Negro scoundrels who are looked upon as the political leaders of
I had hoped that if the editor saw fit to publish my humble plea for the truth concerning those rascales, who are rushing to close the door, I would publish my correspondence as he received it and not distort and subject it to a rigid censorship, which destroyed its essential purport mostly assuredly the African AMERICAN? Do you personally attack the African AMERICAN? Do you personally, by any means, believe that vast army of Negro politicians who are working for what I call a "fat" salary in the present campaign are not interested in the hearty heart? I don't, and frankly, I doubt seriously as to whether you do. No, not by any means am I interested in what the shady white political leader does in the campaign. I am not interested in me at this moment, and it was of him alone that I addressed the editor of the APRO-AMERICAN. I learned to respect you, Mr. Murphy, on account of your honest and kind attitude in active connection with the APRO-AMERICAN. I was confident that of all the Negro newspapers that your paper would speak out against the questionable APRO-AMERICAN is silent and resorts to a dishonorable censorship when an humble correspondent attempts to attack the swarm of black vultures who are gnawing away at the remains of the Negro political existence in these glorious, money-mad states.
Will you be kind enough, Mr. Murphy. If your time permits, to favor me with a reply stating the reason for censoring my letter as you did in last week's issue of your paper. I shall be greatly enlightened no doubt that I shall feel greatly indebted to you for such kindness.

The Times are interested to know if the colored people generally are in favor of Governor Smith Jr. President as against Mr. Smith. We are interested to indicate what are the strongest appeals of the New York governor to the colored voter as you view the situation.
My interest in this matter has been aroused by the fact that the color of my colored friends they seem to favor Mr. Smith, but they do not give me any clear idea as to the reasons that influence them. Consideration and that being a man of intelligence, you could give me some light. To me, this is one of the most interesting developments of this unique campaign. The nominations were made that the colored voters generally the country over that were inclining very strongly to Mr. Smith.

A'Dimming Baltimore Lights
(BY G. LINCOLN SOMERVILLE)
Staid old Baltimore at night is not unlike a huge carnival in session, both because of the hundreds hurrying hither and thither and the myriads of incandescent lights glowing on the streets and from the windows of vast rows of stores.
The residents of this city of a phenomenal growth it is an ordinary sight, and regular visitors here simply regard it as a matter of fact, nothing but one of those enchantments of any city of size and importance, for nights are days where the bright lights are.
Eclipse
It was last week and two weeks before, that a veritable eclipse occurred, not in the sky, but right down in the heart of Baltimore business district and on nearly every other corner. There wasn't anything wrong with the current, and the electric bulbs had not burned out, but they were out and it was dark.
The reason for a pall over the business life of our city on nights when things should have been humming well, is the cover because of inborn practices and practices had extinguished the lights that for a year had glared uninterrupted but for an occasional blowout or break.
All Agreed To Close
It was obvious that the owners of these stores had solemnly agreed to close in unison, and inquiry uncovered the fact that all of them, large and small, had drawn their curtains, closed their doors, put out the lights and no sign of human life was noticeable from the outside. But why were they close, and who were they that had embarrassed Baltimore? What was that period in his history that marked the beginning of a new year—Rosh Hohanna—and next the Day of Atonement—Yom Kippur, and then the Day of Ashkenaz, and old, had removed himself apart from the city life—from the commercial world—and wended his way to the synagogue where ceremonies as odd as they are ancient were held there. There was no hubbub, for silently but steadily the figures of boys and girls, men and women—many of whom were bent in years—were moving to the city, and the Hebrew had dimmed the lights of Baltimore.
Jews In Our Neighborhood
Any mind that was susceptible to any serious reasoning at all could not but see a master stroke inoffensive but powerful, prompting scruples but of dire results if wilfully prolonged. As a rule the Hebrew establishes himself in a negro neighborhood of a purple green bay tree, not so much because of any special blessing but because our race finds it convenient and often necessary to trade with him. (I am qualified) would be the result if the Jewish merchant should decide to remain closed for a week or ten days? Could the co-operative support, manage to find foodstuffs and clothing if the Jews agreed not to open at all again? I quickly answered my own query with a no.
Necessities Of Life
Here is an undeniable fact that the very necessities of life for many of our most trade at Jewish stores) are in the hands of a people who are meek but the more commercial, and who could be more generous with them, and even the country with desolation and want. I wonder if our group could not get a picture of them, but I don't utter helplessness and the urgent need of more black merchants to emulate their Semitic fellows. Not in theory but in fact our leaders must help us understand two things we need and wear clothing.
The Churches
If Negro enterprises were as numerous as Negro churches we soon would hold an indefinite pendent and pendent and pendent. There have been failures a plenty among our group in business ventures, but that does not lessen the fact that we need more. Have you not seen the Jewish and Jewish businesses I have.
Of course we must be educated to the fine points of successfully doing business, but we must also be hopeful and inspiring than the sight of a well organized and carefully directed race business, whether it be the modest task of selling ice and coal or the higher art of publishing a weekly journal of Ne-
THE AFRO
Small Businesses
A number of us do not patronize race merchants, even when we are in a good quality of goods must be offered and at reasonable prices, for who would expect one to trade with another for the simple reason that
Not a few of the owners of small businesses are regarded with suspicion because an attempt is made to earn too much profit on one article, a handicap because the proprietors have not learned the art of small profits and quick, big business. Baltimore still has a vast area that could stand lots more of artificial lights beaming from stores and store fronts. A great big opportunity for men or women to help make the bright lights brighter and our commercial status more notice-
The Lights Are On
But the lights are on again and every Hebrew is busy about his counters, and not until the other will the lights of Baltimore be dimmed again.
Let us hope that are that period is upon us again some more enterprising men and women of our city, besides the web of monopoly is so evenly and tightly woven that escape will be well nigh impossible, and if we do, and we decide for any reason to close our doors as a unit one night, this famous old could truly be referred to as "Darker Baltimore."

This paper is published in Baltimore by members of the Negro race and intensely devoted to the interests of the Negro community.

Republican Promises;
Republican Performance
Voters will read with interest a record of Republican party placements in the 1884 a published in this week's AFO-AMERICAN. During the last 40 years the G.O. referred to Negro grievances in all but two campaign years. Strangely enough, planks against districhement and law have been backed strong words and unmistakable meaning and yet more strangely still, the Negro group finds itself urging the party to work with the same need for legislation along this line as he found 40 years ago. Within these 40 years, when for the first time administrations the Republican party found itself in full control of governmental and legislative machinery, we still have districhement and law, a spynching measure on the statute books. Yet within these same 40 years, the Republican party suffers prohibition, immigration, rural credits, the protective tariff, all dealt with in true Republican form and effi-
In nullifying the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments 40 years ago, excuse might have been the enfranchised colored voters did not have sufficient experience to participate in governmental elections. This certainly is not true at the present time. But what is the present attitude of the Republican party? Not only has it lost the wigor of the Democratic party, this disregards American institutions be wiped out, but it takes the white South upon a high mountain and the black South upon a low ground disfranchisement. If it will but fall down and worship at the altar of illly-white Republicanism. After promising the Negro the American citizenship for 40 years, it not only abandons the demand, but is making group leaders walk the streets of the Ku Klux, the religious bigots and hidebound despoilers of human right who find company of such a Democrat as Al Smith
Read that record and whether or not you want to cast your lot with the Republican party, decide that the present Republican party has drifted too far from its moorings to land you safely on the soil of true American citizenship.
And Human Masses
This writer, like thousands of people who had not followed the model of the W. Johnson on an almost uncanny stroke of coed judgment made a board of directors go to a university to invite him to direct the development of the greatest Ngro university in the world, has followed with assistance the leadership of leadership he would develop. And like others, perhaps, we have been swept off our feet by his unusual devotion to the cause of the masses.
The towering figures have made bids for Ngro leadership during the last 50 years, none, perceptibly, to human idealism, as it pertains to the teeming masses, to the common people, as expressed in speeches and sermons delivered in Strangely enough, for instances, Dr. Johnson believes in the expressed philosophy and doctrine of the W. Johnson, only as it applies to the dogma they have built around a mythical Being they preach about, and set up before when they go about their lives.
Dr. Johnson believes that wars are wrong in principle that any person calling him or herself a priest to die rather than be driven away by any government to engage in human slaughter. If there is a colored minister, Jesus will not be up during the last World War. Dr. Johnson believes that our modern system of capitalism and exploitation of human labor—the consistent with the teaching of Jesus Christ. The very ambition of most ministers, bishops included, is to live in marble halls and drive from men and women who toll longest and hardest in this still imperfectly adjusted world. The Howard Institute believes that Jesus Christ meant what he said when he admonished his followers to love their enemies and when they are struck on one cheek and most vital of all, he believes that the Negro will make a mistake if he hitches his fate onto the civilization of those white men to tell that a few may have an over-supply of luxury.

AN EDITORIAL McGuinn On Goldsborough
From 1912 to 1916 Mr. Phillips Lee Goldsborough was governor of the state of Maryland. As chief executive of ficer sitting in the governor's chair in the state capital at Annapolis, he was the leader of the republican party in Maryland.
Maryland. The end of that term of four years in Annapolis you might think that Governor Goldsborough had so deeply enedered himself to his party in this state, it should have been willing to grant his every wish.
willing to grant his every wish.
But the evidence is to the contrary. In 1916 instead of backing Governor Goldsborough in his effort to obtain the republican nomination to the United States Senate, republican leaders like Mr. Warner T. McGuinn, now city councilman, Amos Woodcock, treasurer of the Republican National Committee, William P. Jackson, Republican National Committeeeman for Maryland, Dr. Ernest Lyon, then the City Councilman Harry S. Cummings, the Rev. William M. Alexander, Captain George Brown, Dr. A. L. Gaines, Captain Edward N. Wilson, and J. W. Armistrong turned their backs upon Mr. Goldsborough, went up into Cecil County, got a little known state senator by the name of Dr. Joseph I. France and put him in the United States Senate.
Why was it that a state senator like Dr. France could go out before the people of Maryland and win a verdict at the polls over an old campaigner like Mr. Goldsborough who had been state's attorney, a comptroller of the treasury, a collector of internal revenue and finally governor of his state?
Why was it that the leaders of the party, black as well as white, who had followed the political fortunes of Mr. Goldsborough from state's attorney to governor, deserted him in the hour of need and retired him to private life? City Councilman Warner T. McGunnn has been a wise and sagacious leader of the republican party in Baltimore City for the past quarter of a century. In 1916 he was opposed to Mr. Goldsborough as a candidate for the United States Senate and stamped him "a lyncher of ideas," "a lyncher of opportunity," "a lyncher of Negro aspirations."
Listen to Mr. McGuinn and you will have some idea of why the republican party turned down Mr. Goldsborough in 1916. Says Mr. McGuinn.
"Civic rights include many things other than the right not to be lynched. They include the right to public office, the right to a reasonable public education and the right to public treatment and care especially of the very indigent. When Governor Goldsborough told the colored men of Dorchester County upon whose backs he had been elevated to ponder that he had not appointed any colored men to office and no nounced a set of laws to protect them to our civil rights; a uniformly exhibited ward of the loyalty we exhibited toward him and had uniformly exhibited toward the party he represented. When he treated a delegation headed by William H. Howard of Annapolis, who went to the court to plead the miserable school and court for the colored children of Anne Arundel and other Maryland counties, with little or no consideration, he was not safe-guarding one of our dearest civic rights, but was acting in opposition to it. "Had we not the right to petition this great wrong and outrage upon our children? "Is not the right of adequate public education a civic right? "No institution except Bay lew will open its doors to those of our race. We must not refuse to petition this great wrong." Governor Goldsborough knew this. Did he make any effort to remedy this situation? Colored men of Maryland, this is the way he has safeguarded our civic interests. He is again, as usual, a candidate for office. He is appearing for the first time before colored men of Maryland and of democratic legislatures. He is religiously laying his sins upon them. "But how about those thousands of offices that need no confirmation by the Senate and in which competent representatives of the race could be represented?"

The AFRO-AMERICAN claims the colored voters of this state are not forgetful, they are not ignorant, and that on November 6th they will leave Mr. Goldsborough at home for the second time from the United States Senate and elect to that high office Honarable William Cabell Bruce, present incumbent, who has made the finest record in the senate of any Maryland representative in the past 25 years.

If you do not live near a wine
Listening to Dr. Johnson you believe that it was not the presidency which intrigued him at Howard and that it was the great opportunity to mould a new order of racial leadership. Every student of the social and economic trend of the group must fear the new gooing fear of racial civilization to slouch off into the foamy and frenzy tide of greed and voluptuousness which is gripping the dominance nations of the world. The world is more towards the new idealism of Russia; the philosophy of Ghandi and the unswerving and self effacing unselfishness of us. Such a leadership ought to work wonders at Howard University.

As Africans Say It
"Africans have much in common with us as wit and wisdom expressed in that language. I am a time for them to get away from the notion that they are in an inferior and barbaric state. In one sense, we Americans are less one sense, we Americans are less one sense, and more barbaric than they."

How To Preserve Children
Take two or more children of the runabout age. If they are bright and cheerful, feed youngsters, so much the better.
Tuck them into bed early—and two times of quiet, restful sleep. Winters are hard. In the morning, dress them lightly and set at a table in the brightest, cheeriest corner of the breakfast room.
To each child, add the following: one small cup of orange juice; one steaming dish of delicious nut-brown yogurt; one glass of crisp whole-wheat toast, one glass of milk.
Give the children to a grazzot lot. Add a kite, some toys and mix thoroughly.
Cover all over with a blue sky and leave them to brownie. Weekly Sunshine in Mexico Bureau of Public Health.

A face powder today must do more than merely remove "shine" from the skin. It must go on smoothly and cling for hours; it must give a soft, fine texture to the complexion, and lend an appealing daintiness to the person. In other words, it must be fluffy, light and fragrant.
Black and White Face Powder, besides being the ideal combination of these qualities, is so artistically tinted that it blends perfectly with the complexion, enhances natural beauty, and conceals imperfections without looking artificial. Try it!

In a signed statement this week,
Mr. Addison said:
"Our marriage was a secret until announced in paper last February by someone who surmised that it was true. We did not. We continued to deny it, as we had planned, not to live together until June, 1929.
"The statements of Mrs. Pace are absolutely false, as I have never resorted to coercion in order to try to get my wife to live with me, nor my wife to give me the information that my wife is unable for not wanting to live with me. As I have said before, that my wife and I have never lived together, and we did not intend to live together until June, 1928.
"I attribute the failure of my marriage solely to the imposition of nothing else.
"While the statement, which I gave my attorney concerning the early morning party at Mrs. Pace's home with two men is true, and will be proven by witness, I did not intend for it to be perceived by the informant, who reached the ears of a supposed to be friend, and in turn given to an AFRO-AMERICAN reporter."

Anderson sang to a packed house

Her performance held her audience
in rapt silence, scarcely daring

She has a voice of well-night incomparable sweetness, — one with a capacity for the expression of deep emotions, if she is ever sufficiently stirred to that extent. There are moments when she is almost heavenly, and if she is ever highly tones demonstration the extent of her advanced training, which has evidently been very thorough, and although she is ever musical in whatever range, there seemed to have been a lack of spontaneity. But, oh, that "Danny Boy", and "Sometime feel like a cowboy." In the middle and a French Aria "Plaisir d'amour" by Martini, she was superb! One critic has said that Miss Anderson was better in the spirituals and songs which called forth her deeper tones — versatile contralto, the she is.

Spirituals
The Spirituals included Johnson's arrangement of "Done Foun' My Los Sheep", the celebrated Burleigh's arrangement of "Die Gospel Train" and Brown's "Sometimes I Peel Like Motherless Child" and Hidin' Place Down Dere" (a light halter rippled through the audience).
Though this concluded her performance according to schedule, the audience vociferously demanded encores and were accorded three days Lou sent them another storm which brought in its wake "Scandalized Mah Name" — volcanic eruption! — Then...."Got a Home on Dat Rock." Two perfectly gorgeous baskets of flowers and a huge bouquet silently conveyed the donor's congratulatory message.

WHITMAN SISTERS
The Whitman Sisters at the Standard Theatre: a typical Whitman Sisters' show; good entertainment but surely nothing to go into fits of job about.
"DRAMMER"
"Black Mail" at the Dunbar; a very poor melodrama one of the worst seen in many a play.

NEW YORK.—Just before he left with his technical staff for Memphis, Tenn., late Thursday nite, to prepare for filming the exterior scenes of his all-Negro sound picture, "Halleujah." King Vidor announced that his country-wide search for ideal types to play the leading roles had been ended with the signing of four colored players in New York.

In his search for types, Vidor made personal tests in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York. Besides these, scores of screen tests from parts of the course were submitted to him, and he written the scene for "HaileyJahle" himself. Because the picture was going to happen sequences it was important for the successful candidates to have pleasant sounds as well as comedy and good physiques.

Probability Of Vehicle's Coming To Baltimore Slim.
WASHINGTON—Due to the success at the opening of "Deep Harlem" at the Howard Theatre, the management and Mr. Dancer have decided to keep the show in Washington for an additional week, so that it will not animate the stage. "Deep Harlem" is billed as an evolution of Negro music from the time of the first weird beat of the tom-tom in Africa, the wall on the ship, the abiding faith shown in the ship, the marrying blues while on the chain gangs, the high spirit shown in the charleston dance on Seventh avenue to reverting back albeit with a new twist, shows the humor and pathos of America's most picturesque citizens. The books, music and lyrics, were written by Whitney and Tutt, Andy Razaf, Joe Jordan and J. C. John.

Chords And Dis-chords
Morgan College continuing its policy of bringing to this community the highest standards of educational opportunity for ambitious students, who are desirabs of developing to the highest point possible, whatever latent powers or abilities, again offers intramural and extramural courses in music education.
Morgan College has happily selected another outstanding student, the department of music at the institution. The newly appointed director of music is Mrs. Shirley Graham, a large member of well known musicians who at one time or another have taught music at Morgan. Among them were such musicians as the late Sylvester Stallion, Eva Jeye, A. Jack Thomas and Adah Louise Jenkins.
Morgan College has striven to offer in her program of studies any course that would be useful to the youth of our group. . . . Morgan has carefully arranged its curricula to fit the spiritual, academic, professional and cultural needs of this
In its attempt to offer adequate opportunity for musical development here, Morgan has offered a number of courses in music. Although greatly handicapped by lack of facilities and necessary equipment, Morgan has managed to carry courses that have served its students well. For without exception, all of the teachers of music now engaged in our private schools have received some of their training from the institution out on Hillen Road.
Concert Pianist
The new director, Mrs. McCann, is a concert pianist of ability, a choral director and a music teacher from the Pacific Coast, where she received most of her training. She has given concerts and lecture recitals in almost every city she has visited, pleasing personality, a sense of humor and is keenly enthusiastic about her work. These three attributes are essential to her success as a modern teacher of music. Mrs. McCann, when asked for a statement concerning her new work, in part, said: "I have been an outstanding year of music here at Morgan College. Those who know me know how utterly and absolutely I believe in music. Through our schools we have unimited opportunity of developing and presenting this ability to the world, and the world receives our music."
Musical Intelligence
"For years we have been told of the beautiful 'natural' singing of Negroes; they have talked about the 'emotions' and feeling of our music and have been forced to realize that the Negro has 'musical intelligence' as well as 'feeling'. "Deeper and deeper we are delving into the scientific side of music and we are adding the power and poise which come only from thorough understanding and knowledge. "This is the day of opportunity for the Negro. No avenue is closed against him. Augustus Lawson, Harry T. Burleigh and Roland Hayes have blazed trails which any of us may follow. There is no limit to what he could accomplish. The may achieve in this field of art.
Continuing, Mrs. McCanns said: "Who am I? I am the product of a wisdom deep and profound, a wisdom deep and profound, a blood in human veins; I am the result of that wisdom being plunged into the fire of human suffering so terrible that we shrank from telling those stories of slavery. Am the result of that wisdom being plunged by the teachings of Christianity, emerging from that pit and mountain high on wings of faith and spiritual understanding; I am all these things, still growing, still developing. I AM A NEGRO MUSICIAN."
Irvin Hughes At Royal
Selecting Irvin Hughes as the director of the orchestra to furnish music at the Royal Theatre, we believe that the music at the Royal Theatre amjor is to be congratulated on this forward step.
Mr. Hughes has surrounded himself with a group of progressive young musician, and has been their work. They are dependable and have a high regard for the ethics of public playing. Many of them, while very proficient as players, are still pursuing courses in music. They are fit them to give the very best music possible to the patrons who may be fortunate enough to attend the Royal Theatre. Mr. Major has made a ten strike.
Men like "Ike" Dixon, Irvin Hughes, Johnny Jones and Edward Wharton are a credit to him. In his own way, has made a very substantial contribution to the musical profession. They have been successful because in their struggle to succeed they have
These young orchestra leaders have helped many young musicians to work their orchestral skills than their orchestral occasion, they have themselves gladly given their personal services to aid worthy communities, helped to engage eagerly, and when engeged to play for an evening professionally, they take their jobs seriously.

SCORES ACTORS IN BIG PRODUCTION
Monroe Plant Objects To Colored Actors In Race Insulting Plays
"GOIN' HOME" NAMED
"Show Boat," "Porgy" Are Also Named On List
"It is necessary for the race actors to consider the characters that they portray to the world in the various big shows they are joining, as part of the productions, are giving the wrong impression of our people." Monroe L. Plant, of New York City, wrote the AFRO this week.
"It is not the desire to cast any reflections on the colored actor, but it up to the Negro press to give true estimations of plays in which there are race actors, and not give them favorable reviews when they are not worthy. Mr. Plant says in
"When the Baptists were having their convention in the South and the mayor of many of the cities everyone was aroused, yet many of the so-called fine plays this word in preference to all others. Take for instance the production 'Golk Home', with all kinds of Uncle Tom's. There is in this play every kind of Southern Propaganda imaginable. White supremacy suggested act, and attempt to negate the Negro in his place" man as of former years. Another one of these insulting mediums is "Porgy" with "Cat Porgy" people as being "Showboat" with "Ameri- Nigger" songs are open insults. Yet papers speak in glowing terms about this play. which is an insult to our people. "Showboat" is the Nigger Wench" is the main attractions.

Setes of breakfast dances, lunches and bridge parties have already been planned and programmed. Styles of the latest vogue in dress apparent including the velvet and of course, the appropriate fur coat, will be the vogue on the football grounds. Then, as you might know, the handsome dress of the latest models will be the cause of many an envious eye.
For the coon hunting season, which is fast approaching, is a great favorite sport among men folk, and the call of the hunting clubs is already in order. Guns and standing attention, polished and ready and the luring of the Virginia woods surrounded by provision of autumn collars is a great temptation.
Inter-Club Range
But back to the social world! Talking of happenings, it reminds me of the Inver-Gliss! formal dance at Eke Hail in 1917. Friday evening Gale, a fine success. To the company, the little club brought together six of the most popular clubs in the city, as a whole responsible for that never-begun electronic evening. But the only one was the Cavalli L evy, who was a representative of the D D s. Inlet! Williams's. One of the other were Eke Waters, of the B W o. But Cavalli P. Wright of the Mole, and Eke Jones, of the Just Us Club. Bo, gille, with this deepening bunch, was not a strench of the imagination to be found. The guests, who were making a show of being out there, and some of the outstanding ones were torn by Mrs. Lusus's. She was a man of high rank, whose character, with richer clothes, shoulder straps and green slippers to match. Miss Xaverla F. Gordon, who looked extremely smart, was a very green man, and was a Lady of the Mole. Gally's Shepard was looking running in a domination of pink and white jumps. Then there was Mrs. Alphonse Pack, who was a very smart and器型. She was a very well-known person in the field, with a hearty in audience that night, dressed in a transparent, brown velvet with a pink elusive shoulder. Gross. Miss Martha. Harmon in Old Rees's chateau. And Mrs. Pugh. Shepard, in a dark, black gown, turned in green and green jewelry created quite a deal of attention also. But, Pinny, rather unusual, there were two women, who were in the same way as these but whether they got together and mapped out the idea, we will no doubt never know, however, their own.
But, there is no more wedding wedding. But, in the Gally's, the wedding four. Gallyz Deether, who was a Lady of the Mole. Wins. And Miss Aden Jackson and Alice Watson. Not to be outand and to add. But another unique tenure, the member of the Mole Club beacked, immensely. In their brief, most glazed form, as the Yolandee Collet
Imagine, then, that a striking and brilliant picture on embellishing the ball antique artisanship of Dallas on a Pusatst at the foot of the orchestra mat, with a background of wood and high-grooved gloverly underlay by gloverly and highly grooved, glided merely under it. But blue shades thinned the brightness brought forth the best dance music in their own matchmaking way. Favors by all means, and golfer, and you, too, you hear the sneakers, but On It, too. I am sure there there no more than five in all three, for from what I can understand, there was only one invitation issue the girls guess and her assures, goes the club members of the six clubs and their guests.

Football Stars told Kp:
Madison Doran and Edward Harmen were among the patients to move into the New York hospital, where they are now. They is down with a broken leg and it will be some time before Edward will be able to walk. In the victim of a broken collar bone, Norah was happily wrapped up in a Drill Hill Park kit. Just Friday afternoon to tune up in a little room, Doran went along just a sailing when all of a sudden the players forgot that Doran was on the team, plied up on him like sacks in a milk and broke his leg. About 10 minutes later, Doran was on Harith' collar bone and snapped it. So ended the game. Both boys are getting back to school, are being taken on a sports recovery.
Latest Flashes
Louis Henson was initiated into the Fitz De La Clus Club last week and the men he met there had told each and every member of his Yimma Friss Club that she loved him dearly, she felt she was a long 1922 dress and carved an old fashion fan with her. She off lucky at that, didn't think she would be able to wear it. Jester are both just good about you. Now what are you going to do about it, let us know something real, will you?
Paul Anderson seems to have a terrible sense of humor. Pagel's "What matter, Mary Carson, care about that?" We will look out later. Anderson is on friendly terms again. On No. No. Saw Hammel. Radcliffe closing in on Anderson. Friday evening. He must be asking to back-bite Milton Duncan. We understand Hamile's bees are poisonous to you and why is it? Almost every day you are seen walking home from school. You signed up for the term with Daisy Brooks. Please get up straight on that little matter. Here is something else we didn't know, and that is, Elizabeth Hardy, one of the quietly running Charles Taylor. He brought her to Lennora Hardy's party last Friday.
Sara Turner and Mary Calona are still running true form. Bernard Hayes will be the host for Friday evening, up Friday evening.
Sara Turner has also attended in her books at D. H. S. and expects to attend either Dumbarton or Armstrong High School in New York. She will be mind to go to almost every thing we see Alice Wilson and Pennette Jaffe on Friday. She will be at Hill Avenue, waiting for some hot chick to come by with a certain Perless sedan and take them for their daily morning ride. So Bill Naish and Paul Chester both have the same love for the Giants. Guess Paul has forgotten all his old name, Coca-Cola.
It's being buried about in the atmosphere that Beaulah J. Edmonds and Agnes McCormick have freely struggle at the Golden Slipper Ballroom this Saturday afternoon. from 3 to 5 p.m. Well, kick up girls, you do it differently. That a real good time is in store for all. Well, kick up girls, you do it differently. That a real good time is in store for all.
Ruth Dean these days. On Ruth you are so tall and stately, and do tell us, that should bump your dome against the sky?
Cliff Tarter, why don't you give Edward Allor charge now and then to teach the children about the dance from school in the evenings? Somebody see that Editharden receives a charge. She's in Bill Dean last week, and she is still raving about it. My, My, My, with we could prove it at the contents of the benevolent letter. Rupers have it that Ralph Rocking. Jr. is in the dance. You can't prove it by him. Time will tell, old man. So no now! What's this we hear about Dorothy Smith trying to renew her crush with O. D. Jones, Jr.? Do, you'll have the banks seem to have O. D.'s heart sewed up with the imported thread, if you look out for the Jolly Seniors Club, they've got something up their sleeve for a month. Do, you see you getting big at the dance at the New Albert Auditorium Wednesday evening. After the dance Dot the teacher belongs to the leader of the band that entertained at the Albert on some same evening. Much Power you to girlle. Heard the gang say that Delmas Mildred is in the 2500 block of Madison Avenue. Sorry we didn't get the low down on the affair. Delmas turns on some warm warty hair.
Last week an article which appeared in the *New York Times* can be seen in *CAN wanted to know whether or not Takahashi should stage*. Well, we could answer that question but perhaps we shouldn't mention it.

DRUGGIST OPENS STORES DESPITE N. C. CITY BAN
BURLINGTON, N. C.—Despite refusal of the city to grant him a license, Dr. I. W. Wooten has opened a drug store here planning to stand for his rights regardless of the outcome.
Burlington has a population of 10,000 colored and 20,000 white. Business is for the most part in the hands of the whites who are opposed to any new business opened by Negroes.
Dr. Wooten's new store is located two blocks from the main street. In the next block down are two business places operated by colored men, a tailor and a shoe repairing shop. Before opening his drug store, Dr. Wooten sought a permit. The clerk refused a license, declaring he didn't approve of a Negro drug store in town.
Dr. Wooten appealed to the mayor with the board of aldermen, voted "no" on the granting of the license.
The chief objection to Dr. Wooten was a nearby white merchant whose trade is three-fourths colored. Owner of the store sought to get rid of Dr. Wooten's three-year lease by leasing the place to a white man. Dr. Wooten agreed to move if he would repay the money he had already expended. Last week, overriding all objections and acting upon legal advice, Dr. Wooten opened his drug store and has been doing a good business ever since. To an AFRO reporter, Dr. Wooten said: "I have invested here between $4,000 and $5,000 which is my life-time saving and I intend to stick it out."

WEST VIRGINIA BATTLE GROUND OF CAMPAIGNERS
G. O. P. ALARMED SENDS OUT TRAILER SPEAKERS
Heflin, Ku Klux And Simmons' Support Of Hoover Suspicious
CHARLESTON, W. VA.
—Both parties are claiming West Virginia, normally republican but for Wilson in 1912 and for John W. Davis, democratic native son in 1924 by 31,403 votes.
The colored vote in West Virginia is estimated to be 50,000. It is sufficiently large in close elections to put the state in either the Republican or Democratic column. Traditionally this vote is Republican.
The Democratic organization, however, is coveting it. The Smith-for-President Colored league, an auxiliary of the Democratic national committee, is sending campaign orators into the state with the hope of wining a Senate vote from the Republican party. Armond W. Scott, an attorney, who is a master of invective, spoke in Huntington, W. Va., crowded a Hi School auditorium l.i.t. Thursday night and in Charleston, County Courthouse before the 1,500 last day of the auspices of the Smith-for-President Colored League, to both races who applauded enthusiastically.
Charged Attitude
He returned to Washington last Saturday pleased with the reception that he received. He reported a changed attitude on the part of staunch Republicans. They no longer condemn or assail a course advocates a division or the colored vote between the two major parties.
G. O. P. Worried
The speeches of Mr. Scott in West Virginia worried the Republican colored voters division. West A. Hamilton was sent to trail him and to urge the colored voters to remain steadfast by the Republican party, parations for a final decision among the colored voters in West Virginia are perfected.
Quotes Harding
quotes
Mr. Scott quoted the late President Harding as saying: "I do not want the colored people to be entirely of one patty."
Suspicious of Hoover
He said that it is enough to raise in the minds of every thinking and red-blooded Negro, a strong suspicion as to the future attitude of Herbert Hoover, when he came to the so-called South, so is anxious about a question, especially when Senator Fumifold Simmons of North Carolina; Tom Heffel of Alabama; and the Ku Klux Klan of this country, are loyally supporting the candidacy of the Republican nominee. And the wantonness why it is the Republican National Committee at Kansas City singled out for its rigid enforcement, the 18th Amendment, but said not a word about the enforcement of 14th, and 15th Amendment rights that are disregarded and violated in all parts of this country every day on the year.
G. O. P. Started Segregation
Mr. Scott also called their attention to the fact that the Democratic party that inaugurated new departments of the Government at Washington, but a Republican President, William H Taft, who said in his inaugural address that he would not appointe Negro to any office anywhere in this country, where there was any ob
DePriest—McLemore
Attitude of Republicans who are embarrassing Oscar DePriest, running for Congress in Chicago, is contrasted with the attitude of Democrats who are supporting Joseph L. McLemore for Congress in St. Louis. Bruce Praisel Maryland's senator, Wm. Cabell Bruce, was lauded for his debate on Constitutional amendments in the Senate. He was alert when so-called O. P.

The Rev. George Washington Arnte, 106 years old, and the oldest pastor in America, was in the city this week conducting services for the Bishop Turpin of the Pentecostal Apostolic Church on Eden street. The venerable pastor has recently undergone a baptism by Freedmen in Appleton, which he says would him back to the beginning of young manhood in vigor and health. His original home was in Los Angeles, but he has travelled around the world and has been married twice. He has been up in an aeroplane and expects to take a trip on a commercial dirigible soon.
LILY WHITES BAR ILL. SENATOR
NEW YORK.—Fearing a race riot in Elmhurst, L. I. police have been ordered to constantly patrol a section in which two homes have been recently purchased.
Oscar Bailey bought a house at 30-43 B1st street. A short time before another family moved into a house nearby, his officers made a concerted effort to oust them both. Signs bearing such inscriptions as "Negroes are not wanted here," "Move out," were posted in windows of white persons living in the neighborhood.
CHURCH PAID PASTOR BOARD OFFICIALS SAY
CHURCH PAID PASTOR BOARD OFFICIALS SAY
The Rev. H. H. Jones, in a statement to the AFRO-AMERICAN 'this week substantiated the story carried in last week's issue, that he received his salary as a minister by other employment, but denied that he had made an appeal to M. E. officials of Baltimore district. The minister further stated that he wished to cast a new referee in the Mottley, Marley and Marley Neck. The Rev. Jones' intention, he informed, was to supplement the income derived from his pastoral duties by engaging in work as an insurance salesman, due to the present industrial depression. From T. W. Cass, general secretary of the church at Magothy and G. I. Spencer, Pasadena, Md., a steward, and member of the official board gives an itemized account of money expended since last
To the Rev. Jones, $725 has been paid in salary; $217 for parsonage rent; $72.50 for house furnishings, and $180 for moving the ashes of Washington, Pa. The Magothy of the church has a membership of less than 300, instead of 400, and in addition, paid the district superintendent, the Rev. W. H. Deans, a sum of $82, and paid $11 for conference claimants. All assessments made by world conference, such as world service, sextons, organists, etc., have been paid in full.

Senator Bruce Favored Disfranchisement of the Negro in 1909
In the Baltimore "Sun," October 25, 1909, the name of Senator Bruce appears in a declaration favoring the Strauss Amendment Disfranchising Negroes.
As late as January, 1928 in the U. S. Senate, Senator Bruce declared that the Fifteenth Amendment giving Negroes the right to vote was one of those BLUNDERS that was WORSE than a CRIME.
Gov. Goldsborough, now candidate for the U. S. Senate, opposed the Poe, the Diggs and the Strauss Disfranchising Amendments and believes that the passage of the Fifteenth Amendment giving Negroes the right to vote was essential to establish their full rights as citizens.
A vote for Bruce is a vote for one who would have taken from you your right to vote.
A vote for Goldsborough is a vote for a friend of the Negroes' right to vote.

A vote for Governor Smith is a vote for the open saloon, Mrs. George S. Whyte, representative of the Maryland Christian Temperance Union, told A. M. E. ministers in session Monday at Bethel Church.
Dr. Ernest Lyons declared he opposed Smith because the Democratic party favored increased immigration, and refuses to place Negroes in National offices. The G. O. P., no aid, refused to place Negroes in even, for it has cancelled speeches scheduled by Marylanders in other states.
He said the 18th amendment can only be passed if the thirds of the states and the Volstead Act by a congress which is Republican now and likely to remain so, and if the states and places to be bailoted for in the present election are held by Democrats.
Rev. G. H. Steepleau urged that political differences lead not to bitch. After all its all over, he said, no matter who wins, we have to work as usual.
Club and organization day will be held at Sharon Baptist, Church, Sunday, at the leaue hour under the auspices of the Fifty-Fifty Club. Mr. James Robinson will deliver the principal address, speaking on "Prohibition as a moral issue." Choruses, quartets and solos will be given by other members of the club. Messrs. Elmer Morris is president; and Joseph Camper, secretary.

To sum up: My opponent has nothing on continuous continuance of Prohibition as it is, social demoralization, injury to health, bloodshed, which make it such a monstrous I offer a plan which would bring Drink working relations with Human Nature, the Public Opinion, and substitute Temperance for Prohibition, which is unattainable.
(Advertisement by authority of Joseph S. C.)
My worthy opponent, ex.Gov. Goldsborough, has now sufficiently defined his views about some of the questions of the hour to make it possible to contrast them with my own. After he had four times parried, with one evasion or another, the questionnaire of the Maryland Division of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, which sought to elicit from him a frank avowal of his convictions with respect to the hazardous subject of Prohibition, he finally stated—but not until Mr. Hoover had said his last word on that subject—that he was opposed to the return of the open saloon; that he believed in the enforcement of all laws as long as they remain on the Statute Books; that he was opposed to the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment; and was against any modifications of the liquor laws, which were calculated to nullify the Constitution. And, then, like a boy following his father through a deep snow, and carefully planting his feet, step by step, in the tracks left by him, he added, in relation to Prohibition and other subjects touched upon by Mr. Hoover in his speech of acceptance: "In short, I stand with Herbert Hoover on the National Republican Platform."
Suffice it to say, he altogether failed to let us know whether he favors or opposes a modification of the liquor laws which would not be calculated to nullify the Constitution. In other words, he does not inform us whether he does or does not favor an alteration of the Volstead Act that would be a constitutional and valid exercise of legislative power, within the limitations of the Eighteenth Amendment; such as a change which would permit the use of a beer with an alcoholic content higher than one-half of $1\%$, and yet with one not high enough to make it an intoxicating beverage in fact. In the opinion of General Lincoln C. Andrews, the former Chief of the Prohibition Unit, and James Cooper Waddell, the former head of the Alcohol and Brewery Squad of that Unit, the use of such a beer would make Prohibition enforcement easier.
I, too, am opposed to the return of the Old Saloon. I, too, believe in the enforcement of all laws so long as they remain on the Statute Books; so much so that it was mainly through my efforts that an additional Federal Judge was recently provided by an Act of Congress to relieve the congestion created by Prohibition cases in the District Court of Maryland.
But, I favor an amendment of the Volstead Act which would allow the use of a 2.75% beer, believing, as I do, with Mr. Hoover, that "it is mighty difficult to get drunk on a 2.75% beer." I also favor a modification of the Eighteenth Amendment which would empower Congress to establish a system of liquor control, compounded partly of Government supervision and partly of local option. At present, the trend of Drink Reform everywhere is towards some such system.
To sum up: My opponent has nothing to offer but the monotonous continuance of Prohibition is it, with all the lawness, social demoralization, injury to health, official corruption and bloodshed, which make it such a monstrous scandal.
I offer a plan which would bring Drink Reform back to sound working relations with Human Nature, the Human Reason and Public Opinion, and substitute Temperance, which is attainable, for Prohibition, which is unattainable.

HOWARD BISONS STAMPEDE
HOWARD PUSHED TO BEAT SMITH
Light, Green Smith Team
Forces Bisons To Limit To
Win, 19-6
BOGEL IS STAR
Blocked Punts Give Howard
Two Touchdowns
By BILL GIBSON (AFRO Sports Editor)
WASHINGTON. — A light and green team forced a heavier and more experienced *even* to *take low*, here Saturday, when the Johnson C. Smith "Bulls" lost to the Howard "Bisons" by a 19-6 score.
The outcome was a sort of moral victory for the boys from Carolina for it was because of two unfortunate breaks — blocked punts — Howard scored twice, his *three* Better timing by "Red Williams" and the score might have read 7-6. The Bison second stringers started the game, with the regulars coming in before the close of the game.
All of this, however, should not take away from Howard's glory, such there is, in winning a home game. The game that Howard will have to do a lot of work if the Hilltopsters are to have a winning aggregation. Much of the game consisted of a duel between the Williams, the the kicks of each are not counted. Cole's best punt went about 47 yards and the worst one, Williams hardly traversed one of 10 feet forward direction.
Smith Scores First
The first score of the game came in the first quarter when Martin, Smith, quarterback Jake Patterson, and on his 20-yard line, and raced 80 yards for a touchdown. Williams made it to the Pine, Payne, Nuttall and Jack Young, alternated at hiting the line, but not hard enough to suit Coach Patterson so that the first score was
Williams kicked thirty yards to Howard and Hoss. Rush the pivot line and he made an five on an end sweep but on the next play Martin swept, then to spill Coley. Who hit the in-forward "wall." The quarter ended with Smith in possession of the ball on her 40-point line. Score 5:11. 6.
Marshall's Brilliant Run
Marshall. On the play after the opening of the Howard quarter, Williams, of Smith, punted to Howard and Marshall received the ball, race 38 yards for the back. Marshall for Smith tacklers he扣了距离 his way across the whitelines. Coles drop kicked for the extra point. Score: Howard, 7. Smith
Blocked Punt
Howard's second score came in the third quarter when Williams, the Smith kicker, was blocked by the temp to put up 10 yards, recovered it and rolled over the goal line. The Bisons scored again this period when Sallie, receiving a pass from Marshall put up 10-yard line. He Rush hit the line and gave a touchdown. Attempt for the extra point failed. Score: Howard: 19. Smith: 6. Smith Threatens Smith threatened his period but he decided to carry the pigskin off to the Carolinians and Red Williams, receiving a 20-yard pass to 60 yards, shaking the ball as he went, before he was down. On the next play Walker made six around Simm but the next two attempts by the "Bulls" failed to into their own territory. An exchange of punts terminated the third quarter with the ball on Bowens 25 yard line.

SEMINARY DRAGONS LOSE TO VA, STATE
By J. Q. HOPSON
LYNCHEBURG, Va. — Virginia State College defeated Virginia Seminary, here Friday by the score of 27-12, but the score does not indicate the closeness of the game.
Injuries; received in the Hampton game the week before, caused two of the Dragons backfield to score on the line, including Captain Powler went into the game, still imprinting from the effect of the Hampton conflict. These injuries combined with a deliberate midfield strike in fifteen pounds to a man placed too great a handicap on Coach Hurt's light, inexperienced team. Credit however, cannot be taken from State
The game opened with State kicking off to Henderson who advanced 8 yards before being down by 1. State kicked and State soon made it a first down by hitting the Seminary line. Again Seminary got possession of the first down and apparently marching to a second, one of the Seminary backs fumbled, and State. Here a march started that ended when Overby ran twenty yards for a touchdown. The try for extra yards failed when Seminary held.
Open Aerial Attack
The second score came in the second quarter when Davis hurled a perfect pass to White who ran 55 yards before he was downed in sensation space with the feature run after gaining a three-yards through the line Davis hurled a 12 yard pass to Henderson. This placed the ball on State's two yard line from where it was caught in forward pass for the extra point failed.
State Scores Again
State also made a touchdown in this quarter. With short line plunges by Royal and Overby the ball soon reached the 5 yard line where the ball marker for State. Dabney added the extra point by a line plunge.
**Sub Stars**
The third quarter R. R. Johnson of State entered his entrance into the game receive a ten yard pass from Chambers and run the remaining distance for another touchdown. The extra point was made by a line plunge.
Try Air Again
Seminary came back to score her second touchdown by the aerial route. A pass. Davis scored the third yard. Burton next received a 5 yard pass. White added three yards by a line plunge. Her merit was acknowledged and the next that was good for ten yards. The next pass to White was good for a short distance, while the next was good for a long distance. The ball was placed on the 3 yard line and was carried over by Davis. State's last score came as a result of intercepted pass. Royal, State's speed quarter, intercepted a long pass thrown by Davis. Royal and the ball were small gains to the 3 yard line where Johnson carried it over. Royal, Overby, and consistent gainers for State. Shelton's and Pegram's work stood out on State's forward wall. To White must so the forward wall be consistent from his long run he gained consistently whenever he carried the ball. On the line the work of the ends. Capulet and Henderson was sensational.

FARRELL GOES ROUTE
Warfield Makes Unassisted
Double Play. Groves Fans
3 Times
Taking advantage of the breaks
of the game, hitting the ball
hard, and piercing bases almost
at will, the Ball more Black Sox,
behind the superb pitching of
Luther Farrell, pounded out a 9
to 3 victory from the great 'Lefty'
Groves to send Maisel's All-Stars
down to defeat and to square
their loss of the previous Sun-
day.
Hits And Errors Merge
The big guns of the Taylorman beached forth salvos of base blows that shook the very foundation of the Athletics' star moundsman. The Sox made their eleven hits count end with the aid of five costly errors on the part of "Ducky" Davis, catcher for the star outfit, converted them into nine runs. The Maiselem men were only able to hit two ofrell for six blows on two of these going of extra base. Farrell held the Stars to four hits until the ninth when by Moors and George Maisel, sent one more run across the pan, but there was no further drive to threaten the 'local' lead.
Dixon, Holloway Sparkle
"Rap" Dixon and "Crush" Holloway were the stars. Sunday, the former sparkling at the stick with the latter making some great catches that cut off runs when scores would have been in order. Dixon rapped out a single, a double, and a home run, walked once, drew runs and scores, and scored markers himself. His fielding was in high order, his one-hand catch of Maisel's in the ninth was sensational, putting off two possible runs.
Scored Is Tied
The Black Sox scored two runs in the third inning, when Warfield, after going to first on Thomas' error, scored when Dixon drove the ball over the left field fence. The Stars knotted the count in the fourth. Neum opened by fanning and Porter after a pass. Moore took to the Taylors, dropping the ball just as the runner reached the bag. Thomas flied out to Dixon, and so fast was the right fielder's return to home plate that Porter, on third, was unable to score on the play. Moores then singled, scoring Porter and Moore. The Warfield was Texas teague and had the infield scrambled in vain for it. Maisel was an easy out, Lundy to Taylor.
That Sixth Inning
The Sox counted one run in the fourth, two in the fifth and four in the sixth inning. Warfield hit for two bases in the sixth and Holloway went to first on Moor's muff, scoring on Dixon's single after Wilson and Charleston doubled in succession, Wilson and Dixon score-
Three Pitched Balls. Three Out
The second in inning Farrell retired the side with only three pitched balls. Moore popping the Holloway and Nose driving out to Lundy. Farrell had seven strikeouts to his credit, whiffing Groves three times, Bishon twice, and Neun and Artigana once each. The mighty Lefty Grove eithered Holloway, Nose, and each, and retired Wilson Lundy, Mackey Warfield one time, an eagle.
Warfield's Double Play
Warfield's. A second game started with Yokel's opening strike. Eddie Rommel, ended in the third inning with each team having scored two runs. Yokel retired in the second inning due to the stress and Bob Coffey's two runs scored by the Stars were both forced in. Yokel walking six men. Charleston hit a home run off Rommel's delivery, sending a run in at his homefield. field star doubled, he made an unintended double, catching Moore's fly and tearing Porter at second.
The series now stands at one-and-
the two teams will renew host-
ilities at Maryland Park. Sunday af-

Saints Surprise And Hold
Seasiders Scoreless In First
Quarter
LAWRENCEVILLE, Va.
Hampton added the second victory in her drive for the C. I. A. a championship by defeating the fighting St. Paul Tigers or Russell Field, 27-0, Saturday.
Hampton's heavy fast team could not get together in the early stage of the game and St. Paul held them scoreless for the whole of the first quarter. Twice during that burning-hot quarter the Hampton backs ripped and tore through St. Paul's line to get within three yards of the goal only to be held for downs by such stout hearts as Williamson's and Moore's.
Hampton soon found herself during the second quarter and made two touchdowns in quick succession. The first touchdown came after about five minutes of play in the second quarter. Jones broke through the line for the count after much driving and line plunging by the ever fast foursome, Baker-Guess-Jones and Byrd. Baker kicked for the extra point.
The second followed in short order when a Baker to Byrd pass was completed. St. Paul, however, was not without a threat. Murphy, the Tigers game little quarterback, completed a triple pass that gained considerable yardage and passed the hitting Tigers within three yards of Hampton's goal line. Patty Kniskind and half was cali-
The Seasiders secured two touchdowns in the second and third quarters. Both of them were made by George Clarke, a substitute fullback, mixed with a few passes accounted. Pure line driving for the most for most the Seasiders, by the Seasider, Hunter, in tackle; Gates, Hunter; McGowan, on end and Hill, in guard, were owers of strength for Hampton's forward wall.

Lions Run Southerners Ragged On Home Campus Saturday
ROSS SHOWS UP WELL
Freshman Rumored Successor To "Jazz Byrd"
LINCOLN Pa. — 1,000 ardent followers of the Lion aggrega-
tion law the Lions trounce their southern opponents to the tune of 33-7.
Martin and Armstrong are the most outstanding figures in this fracas. Capt. Julie Martin scored two of the tallies, while his cohort Harmon added three. Ross, one of the second stringers, did his job by adding and twisting a thrilling run to twenty-five yards. A pass from Armstrong to Griffin made the only tally of the game for the Southern aggreation.
The brilliant field running of Clark, Ross and Hutton make things look different for the Lion reserves. Coach Morrison put them on the same quarter of which there were only six minutes remaining. In the opening of the second half the reserves added their bit to the tally. It was at this time that Ross made his twenty-five yard run. Ross is only a freshman and keeps his record of Saturday will probably hear of him as the future "Jazz" Byrd.
**Armstrongz**
Armstrong of the Shaw aggregation is the one who really made it by Shaw although he did not personally make it. Armstrong along with Browning did practically all of the back field work for the Southern aggregation. He played through the greater part of the second half when bad ankle, in injured during the moments of the half.
THE PASSING REVIEW
In spite of that the Shaw backs were often stopped before they reached the line of scrimmage and were thrown for enormous losses. The Lions still seem to have an effective defense against an aerial attack. Coach Morrison will have corrected this defect by the next game. The Lions will meet another of these aggregations from the sunny Southland on next Saturday, they face primary and Col-
THE BULLS SURPRISED the Howard Bisons, Saturday by holding them on even terms for the first half, only to have two costly blocked additional pair of touchdowns.

All Of Morgan Scores Coming During First Half Of Game
ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Morgan College severely defeated the Capitol City A. C. in a one-sided but hard fought game here Saturday afternoon.
Morgan was the aggressor in the first half, making a total of twenty-five points for those periods, but Annapolis, bracing up in the second half, held Morgan in check.
The game was marred by unusual slugging on the part of both teams. "Pleasant," Williams said, Annapolis' line tackle, Barnett and Herndon being Annapolis' best performers.

Lane, As Triple Threat, Hogs Limelight With Two Touchdowns
WASHINGTON, D. C.—there's Capt. Terry Steele 'Jackle of Smith College, N. C., as he led his warriors against one Howard Buffaloes on the Hilltop Saturday
WINSTON-SALEM. —Without the services of "Bus" Coleman, All-American triple threat ace, A. and T.'s Aggie Bulldogs overwhelmingly defeated the North Carolina State College eleven, here, Saturday afternoon by a score of 20 to 0.
At the beginning of the second half, only two regulars were in the line-up. At this stage of the game, the losers showed better defense and their attack was superior to the C. I. A. Champs.
punts give the Washington boys and backfield outweighed the Smithmen by at least 10 to 15 pounds per man. Howard's players, most of them experienced from several years of football, were able to sense the breaks of them.
Captain Lane who last week proved a menace to the Tuskegee Tigers, starred again, doing all of the past week's ground-gaining. The big full-back's punts, though not equalled to that of his teammate Coleman, were well worth the cost of the yards. Lane was responsible for 12 of the points gained by the winners.
and the team. Too much cannot be said here of Bogel, left guard of the invading Southerners. This boy was in on every play and made at least half the tackles made by the Smith team. He also stood out as a tower on the offense smearing the opposing linesmen with a facility little short of uncanny. His fighting spirit was an obvious inspiration to his teammates and they rallied round him, only to have inexperience and light weight take their toll. If you ask me I'll say that it was a decided MORAL VICTORY for Smith. Howard's second season was weak and the end play was ragged at charges made, particularly in the second quarter. Howard's team has the latent strength, but it was not much in evidence Saturday. Marshall, the Jersey schoolboy, fits in well as a running mate for Jack Coles and "Hoss" Ross and shows that he knows broken fielding. "Tick" Smith, who thrilled Washington fans with his fielding, play during the past three years, is not available for this team, having entered Dental School which automatically him from varsity competition. And of course the loss "Dan" Brown who received a broken leg in practice last week, is a blow that has caused the noodle to fall.
The first tally of the game came in the first quarter when Lane shot around right end for a 5 yard line, who generated a first string men, linking the line for the extra point. In the second quarter, Rayford, the lanky linessman of the Aggies, furnished the spectators with some thrills by intercepting a forward pass and pacing 32 yards, placing the pigskin over the coveted chalked line. Cunningham's Run
In the fourth frame, the Aggies scored, captain Lane elected himself to heave a long pass which was shot into outstretched hand of Cunningham, who speared the pigskin out of the atmosphere with one hand and paced 50 yards before being overtaken by Grimes. At this juncture of the fray, Lane wiggled and twisted for 50 yards for the final touchdown of the fray. Patterson added the extra

Salle and I will cover Mack, the latter a Baltimore boy on the second team, show up better than Dennis Simpson, on the wings the latter having bowed up quite a bit during the time he has been out of varsity competition. However, by the time of the Morehouse game, Saturday, the Howard forward wall should be functioning with more precision for formfulness.
and fortunefulness. And by the way Coach Harvey, of Morhouse, was up scouting the game Saturday, having an excellent opportunity to see both of the teams in action as he plays Smith this month also. Coach Randy Taylor seemed well pleased with his Smith charges, and with only two real varsity men, Captain Carly Steele, a new senior and Martin, a junior, built up a machine for the mighty Howard dared not belittle, Walker, Somerset, and "ed" Williams also show promise of making names for them.
Faust, Cunningham, Patterson and "Bear" Wilson performed the style of the winners like Vanstory, Busby and Hawkins were shining for State College.
selves in grief. Smith's troubles was the getting down in the field QUICKLY under punders, and another was slowness in getting the kicks off. I would suggest, here that if it were possible Howard secure some officials outside of Washington, not that there has been any partiality or that the officials there are not competent, to but to the public, such like the show manager's son who was cats, leading the side of the show. It does not matter whether the vading team agrees to the use of home officials or not, or whether a much better public impression would occur in a while.

PETERSBURG, Va.—With a midsummer's sun registering around 78 degrees, the "powerful Peabody High School grid machine moved down the opposition of the St. Joseph's eleven from Norfolk, to win a 7-0 score, at McKenzie Street Park, here Thursday.
The game was featured by the scintillating play of Taylor, half-back on the Peabody team, who gained a total of 104 yards during the game. While those of St. Joseph scored 35 yards, Peabody completed four of eight attempted passes and the visitors failed in the only one they attempted.

Mr. A. S. Jackson writes from Rutherfordton, N. C.—
"I would get up mornings and my joints would ache. I would feel sore. I would feel sleepy and stupid. I didn't feel like I wanted to work. "I heard of Black-Draught and how highly it was recommended. It certainly did me a world of good. 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 poisons which have been absorbed into the system instead of being carried off in natural manner. These waste products cause a great deal of trouble to many people, and much relief is been found, in these cases, 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.

Picking Chorus GIRLS with "IT"
From the time of Williams and Walker down to Sissle and Blake-picking chorus girls wasn't such a hard job
Bert Williams, Bob Cole, Jr., Rosamond Johnson, Will Cook, George Walker and that old crowd had their troubles. They said Aida Overton Walker was always picking out some good looking boys in the show to dress them up in silk shirts and checkered suits, and then there was trouble 'til the original team of Walker and Williams became Williams and Walker. Bert saw to that and beat old George down to his point of view.
"Runnin', Wild's" peppy chorus was one of the first to appear in little or nothing. They matched up well and wiggled out of this world.
They say the profession had to chip in money to bury Aida Overton, who had lavished all her earnings on silk shirts and jewelry for sweet boy friends. But that's another story.
The main theme is those old fellows in the musical comedy game had their troubles, but nothing like those of Irving Miller, Earl Dancer and Lew Leslie.
In the old days chorus girls dressed. Yes, they put something on. It might have been silk skirts or capes, but they came all the way down to the ankles. Arms and a bit of chest were exposed but that was all.
Picking a chorus of twelve under such circumstances was a cinch. Twelve girls of the same size who could sing and dance a bit and you have your chorus. Even if they couldn't sing or couldn't dance, they COULD LEARN, so that if the manager got them all the same size, in time he was assured of a worth while chorus group. All thats changed now. Today's stage is far stricter on chorus girls. They sing and hoof as well as ever and even better, but todays emphasis is on looks.
(1) Particular stage managers demand chorus girls be the same color. In shows where girls wear little more than a loin cloth or a fig leaf, contrasts between high brown and high yellow are too great for most productions.
(2) Not only must they be the same height but their body and leg mea-

surements must be nearly the same. Lockstep dancers or dances requiring pivoting on one leg with the other raised and bent at right angles manifestly fail where legs of chorus girls vary in length.
(3) Girls with bow and x legs are practically barred from the stage. They never get past the employment agency where the kindly but firm manager critically looks over applicants. Maybe ankles are at normal or thighs are bowed instead of calves.
"Speed, pep, and more speed, are the first requirements that my chorus girls must meet," said Coleridge Davis, youthful producer of "Sugar Cane", now playing the Royal Theatre.
"But of course," Mr. Davis quickly added, "I try to get girls that have good looks as well. Looks mean a whole lot, but if you have workers who show snap and rhythm it isn't a hard matter to make them up so they present a good stage appa
Whatever the defect the manager finds it out and the girls gets a ticket. (4) Fat girls with piano legs like their opposite the spindle shanked variety are also on the taboo list. (5) Added to all this, chorus girls of today have to possess "it" if they expect to succeed. Charm, grace, beauty, vivacity all count for the modern chorus girl, but if she's physically well proportioned and of average size, she's miles ahead of her rivals who lack her shape and have everything else.

THE DANCE
Bow legs, knock knees, pigeon toes, handy legs, . . . everything went in the old time chorus, provided you could sing and dance. These, from "Dancing Demons," are of ancient vintage. Yes, in "them" days, chorus girls wore something.

Aida Overton Walker, who, as a dancing comedienne had plenty of "IT." Her specialty was silk shirts to sweet boy friends of the cast.
It had been Mr. Davis' aim to pick girls of the same size and color, the producer finding this year that the girl of medium hight, with graceful, rounded curves, is supplanting her taller sister with straight lines.
"Five of the girls in my show are from Baltimore," the young showmah pointed out, and the average age of my chorus girls is about 20 or 21. Younger girls are more willing to work and learn than the "vets" of the show business and their presence makes for more harmony among the members of the cast.
"Married girls? They work fine, marriage certainly being no handicap to them. If anything it is a decided asset, as these girls are usually more dependable. The young girl who is good looking, has speed, and a large dash of Ti' is the type we seek, but if she has only one mali-

- LONDON. —“Show Boat” has been
‘Reviewed so often and so much said
“about it that it would seem a waste
pf;time for me to write another re-
view of it. I will therefore give only
my personal impressions of it,
We in Paris I had heard much
about it from colored tourists and
residents who hiad seen it, and in ev-
.2ty. Case comment was favorable.
- One well-known doctor who was here
“this summer was strong in his con-
‘demnation of it and told me that he
p thought it was a deliberate attempt
:on the part of the white American
to: carry his antl Negro propaganda
‘into - Europe. Another lady, who
“heard Layton and Johnson sing in
Paris told me that she was enjoying
their singing immensely until they
“Rot fe one of their songs from “Show
oat", with its Nigeer, Nigger”, and
then she-got up and walked out. The
word “Nigger” is perhaps the most
i frequent one in the play.
T_also: heard many harsh things
‘said against Robeson for lending his
talent and popularity toward making
it-a success. “If anyone were to ‘call
him 9 ‘Nigger’,” said one person to
“me, “he'd be the first. to get offend-
ed; and there he is singing “Nigger,
Nigger” before all those white peo-
es ple." ~With: me;-at-the-play, too,.was
‘Mrs. Maude Walker, teacher of Pee
“ton, Ohio, and she said after the
tour she had just made over Europe,
and the perfect absence of color prej-
udice, everywhere, it would be impos-
sible for her to say how thoroughly
disgusted she was with the play.
“Thirty Persons Give Views
‘AU in ali ‘fully some thirty Ne-
-Btoes of intelligence or self-respect
‘had expressed to’ me their disappro-
“bation of the play. ‘Therefore, it was
with some curiositw that I found’my-

Primitive Appeals
And just here let me-inject a fact
@bout myself. I have read so many
bad books about Negroes — hundreds
and hundreds of them — I have
heard so many. bad things said, I
have been jim-crowed, and insulted
-8nd_ knocked about in America so
much because of my complexion, that
my indignation, very vivid and’ elec-
‘trical in the beginning, has, I fear,
-become -somewhat freyed or flabby
“fa these latter days from excessive,
use. I know moreover that at least
seventy-five percent of white Ameri-
cans would rather hear bad than
good said about Negroes, further that
-at least ninety-five. percent of~an
white people are more ing ested in
& primitive Negro than in®a refined
eéticated one, just as a primitive
Englishman, or German, or Italian,
,or white Southerner is more interest-
ing ‘to me, at least at first sight, than

want, namely, just what’ the more
self-respecting Negroes are objecting’!
to in “Show. Boat”, that the only!
thing left. for me, so far as prays
and books on the order of “Show
Boat” is concerned, is:to become a
_ philosopher. One ‘thing is sure;
se producers when . they stage
‘these plays do not take Negroes into

them to give the public what the

Pleasure and Disappointment

ceed.
To me “Show Boat” was at the
“Same time o pleasure and a disap-
3 ‘potutment. "a ‘pleasure in that I had
en Jed-to believe from-reviews or
‘bits from reviews that apart from
cithe- colored. people in it,. the play
“was worth almost nothing. The fact
‘ds that “Show Boat" is one of the
most snappy and Eperkiing plays I
“have -ever seen, and rarely have I
laughed So much ato play. Of the
‘white -actors . several of. them were
‘unusually -good. Cedric Hardwicke
as Captain: Andy of the “Show Boat”
wkept the audience in a continuous
"uproar -of laughter whenever he ap-
peared; Viola Compton, as his wife,
acted the'part of-the respectable and
fprudish Southern matron to. perfec-.

pbut they were buried away as se-
curely as they would have been were
they sitting ‘in some white theatre
in Georgia or Virginia, or at a re-
ception given by the governor of
Ajamaba to his constituency. “Show
Boat” in short, is a white man's
Play, and the colored brother, as us-
ual occupied the usual place. Not 3
bit different from in America,
Robeson In Rear
Even Robeson, who was superb, as
always, and at least as great’ an
attraction as any other person in the
cast, occupied a nosition well in the
rear, his role being that of the lazy,
good-natured, lolling darky, a type
that exists more in white man’s fancy
than in reality. His singing of “Old
Man River”, is unforgettable, and
was very warmly applauded.

“WITS' END CORNER”
By Huch Fawcett
4re you standing at “Wits’ End Cor-
ner,”
Christian, with troubled brow?
Are you thinking of what is before
ou,
And all you are bearing now?
Does all the world seein against you,
And you in the battle all alone?
Remember—at ‘Wits’ End Corner”
Is just where God's power is shown.
Are you standing at “Wits’ End Cor-
ner,”
_, Blinded with wearing pain,
Feeling you cannot endure it,
You cannot bear the strain,
Bruised through the constant suf-
fering,
Dizzy and dazed and numb?
Remember—to “Wits’ End Corner’
Is where Jesus loves to come!
Are you standing at “Wits' End Cor-
ner,”
Your work before you Spread,
All lying, begun, unfinished,
And pressing on heart and head,
Longing for strength to do it,
Stretching out trembling hands?
Remember—at “Wits’ End Corner
The Burden Bearer stands.
Are you standing at “Wits' End Cor-
ner,”
Yearning for those you love,
Longing and praying and watching,
Pleading their causes above,
Trying to lead them to Jesus,
Wond'ring if you've been true?
He whispers, at “Yits’ End Corner,”
“Tl win them, as I won you!”
Are you standing at "Wits’ End Cor-
ner?”
Then you're just in the very spot,
To learn the wondrous resources,
Of Him who falleth not!
No doubt to a brighter Pathway
Your footsteps will soon be re-
moved, =
But only at “Wits’ End Corner"
Is “the God who is able” proved!

Dear Aunt Phyllis:
Some time ago I told my chum

Tam sorry to lose her friendship.

‘You must learn to restrain from
telling even your chums anything
which fe wish kept confidential. It
seems hard not to tell somebody but
it is safe. There are very few people

and will sometimes tell the person

Most folks have a mistaken idea
that they are sealing a friendship
by repeating something unpleasant
to one about whom it was said. It
is a mistaken notion, however, for
the person talked about usually ends
up by disliking the person who did

CHAPTER I.
Anything can happen, they say, on a moonlight excursion up the Hudson. Engagements are made and engagements are broken; romance is born and romance is drowned. Cupid emerges with a black eye and a bloody nose, but he gives as many blows as he takes. Ask Dick Marlin about it.
The moonlight excursion boats have a serious fault or; blessed virtue, according to the way you look at it. That is, their electric lighting systems are defective. The lights have the annoying habit of suddenly going out and the more exasperating habit of suddenly coming on again. One would think that the excursionists would complain, but they never do. In fact, the most popular boats are those whose lighting systems are the most uncertain.
The steamer Calantha for instance, had lights that were practically guaranteed to go out for a half-hour at a time, but she was a summer gold mine to her owners. She was a dinky, rickey old tub that would have sunk in fifteen minutes if she had ventured outside New York Harbor. She was neither seaworthy nor riverworthy but she was notoriously loveworthy and boozeworthy. All steamers leave a trail of foam behind them; the Calantha left a trail of empty flasks from Yonkers to Bear Mountain.
Richard Marlin, a steady youth who expected to become one of Harlem's big business men, had always turned up his nose at moonlight excursions. He thought them vulgar.
He was not enthusiastic, therefore, when his friend Jim Cross, who was walking down Seventh Avenue with him one evening, stopped before a large placard leaning against a tree.
The placard announced in bold letters of red and blue that on the next evening there would be a moonlight excursion up the Hudson to Bear Mountain and return, on the famous joy-boat, the Calantha.
"Bah!" said Richard. "How can they know the moon will be shining tomorrow night? It may be cloudy."
"So much the better." laughed Jim. "How so?" asked Richard innocently.
"Well," sighed Richard, "everyone to his taste."
"Ih, Dick, be yourself! You ought to try one of those trips; it would broaden you—or flatten you. In either case you'd know more than you know now. Besides, look who's going on this one. If they can stand it, you can."
Dick Marlin looked more attentively at the placard. It appeared that the excursion was to be given for the benefit of the Gotham Day Nursery, an institution favorably known to Dick. To his astonishment the roster of the committee in charge, which was printed in small type near the bottom of the card, contained the names of several young ladies whom he esteemed highly.
First, there was Miss Penelope Magnum, the daughter of no less a personage than Dick's employer. Dick clerked in the office of Jonathan Magnum, the biggest Negro real estate operator in New York. People laughed when other real estate men were called millionaires, but they gravely nodded their heads at the name of Jonathan Magnum.
There were Rosalin Esmond, Lillian Holt, Jessica Freeman, and then the name that stirred Dick—Elinor Elinor Vanderlev. If she were really ing—but no, she wouldn't.
"Boshi!" he soffaced, turning to Jim Cross. "Those names are just bait to hook the social climbers. Those girls wouldn't dream of actually going."
"They wouldn't, eh?" chuckled Jim. "You don't know them as I do. They'll bet here with bells on."
"But Miss Magnum, as careful as her dad is—"
"Dad and daughter are different generations, old to. I tell you what—you come along on the excursion with me, and if every one of those girls isn't there I'll give you five dollars when the boat pulls out." Dick pondered. There was the chance of a quiet talk with Elinor Vanderley, and under the combined influence of ricer and moonlight he might gain the courage to tell her what had long been in his mind.
"Come on." urged Jim, "be game for once in your life."
"All right, Jim," he decided, "I'm game to go. And if she's—that is, if certain ones of that list are present, never mind about the five dollars."
It was quarter of eight on a sultry Saturday night. At the 129th Street wharf lav the Calantha. Hung with gay pennants and newly clothed in white paint through which the seams and wrinkles of age were apparent, the Calantha reminded one of a dissolute old rake with a fresh Beach suit. Now and then a gray massage, a gaudy tie and a Palm ring of smoke rose from her funnel, as if she were puffing on a big black cigar.
By twos and threes, sometimes by sixes, people were alighting from the trolley terminus and making for the Calantha — up-to-date, tastefully dressed people with the springy, half-dancing step of Harlem. Now and then a taxicab or a private car roll-
THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1928
ed up, discharged a couple, and curried back to the city.
At the wharf entrance, where they could see everyone who got on the Calantha, stood Dick Marlin and Jim Cross. Jim was setting off his nut-brown complexion with a blue coat, tan shoes. Dick was luminous in a white flannel trousers and white-and-vanilla-colored Palm Beach suit.
"Come on, grandpa," teased Jim, "get that graveyard look off your face. This is a joy-boat, not a tomb."
Dick going; several little moves of hers had been interpreted by him as gentle invitations to Dick. Jim even now was looking from Dick to her and from her to Dick, and she had noticed it.
"What's on your mind, Jim?" she asked when the Calantha was well up the river and they were dancing together. "You look as if you had discovered something or other."
"I don't tell tales out of school," he
"Aw, they'll be here, don't worry."
"They'd have been here long ago if they were coming, Jim. They're on the committee and they should be here attending to things."
"Innocence, blessed innocence! Of course they're on the committee, but that doesn't mean they'll do any work. That poor sweating man there will take all the tickets, pay the bills and do all the dirty work. Then the newspapers will tell how wonderfully fair. Ha, at last!"
Jim's lecture was interrupted by these young ladies managed the afte the appearance of a large wine-red car at the corner of the ferry plaza. It glided up like a boat, as if it had no wheels. In the car were five girls and three young men.
"Behold the committee!" cried Jim. stepping forward with an ironical sweep off it hat. "How punctual!"
"Hush, Jim!" said Elinor Vanderley. "Don't expose us."
"We were finishing a bridge game," explained Penelope Magnum, "we simply couldn't make it sooner."
"And there is Mr. Marlin," cooled Lillian Holt. "That'll make the party even."
The sombre-faced chauffeur of Jonathan Magnum's household helped the ladies out and handed them their picnic baskets. The young men eyed each other's hip pockets speculatively. There was a time when everybody ran away from a man who put his hand in his hip-pocket; now they run to him.
"By the way," asked Penelope Magnum, "does everyone here know everyone else?"
"A mile away,' chaffed Jim Cross. "or in the darkness of a picnic boat." "Oh," shuddered Jessica Freeman. "I hope it won't be dark on the boat." "No—not much!"
The couples paired off, apparently at random. An onlooker would not have suspected the subtle jockeying for position that went on. An inch here, an inch there, the dropping of a handkerchief, and then—triumph or disappointment. Joe Betts, a bold wooer seized Penelope's basket without caring who noticed him. Jim Cross stopped to tighten his shoe-laces which put him beside Rosalind Esmond, who pretended surprise. Richard Marlin was in the rear when Lillian Holt, crying out that she had lost her wrist watch in the car, dashed back for it, though she knew it was safely hidden in her bodice. Elinor Vanderlev kindly offered to help her find it, then changed her mind halfway and found herself beside Dick Marlin, who promptly took up her basket. Lillian's ruse had failed, and she had to be content with George Larue, a college senior who seemed bored with everything he saw.
As all these moves were simultaneous they took only a minute or so, and the seven couples proceeded to the steamer in high spirits. Mrs. Woodland, the vigorous president of the day nursery association, met them, but she knew girls too well to be dispointed at their late arrival. A gong clanged somewhere, a man bawled "All abord!" In a moment the whistle gave two toots and a bellow, the dock timbers groaned, the water rushed and gargled, and the Calantha edged away from the dock. Everybody was laughing or singing, several ukeleles were in evidence, and some misguided hater of the human race had brought along a saxophone. "Friends," said Jim Cross, shaking his big shoulders, "before this trip is over something is going to take a forced dive into the Hudson. It will be either that young man or his saxophone, orb oth."
The Calantha swung out into the middle of the stream. True to Dick's gloomy prediction, there was no moon; the boat was an island of light in a sea of darkness. The orchestra tuned up and couples began dancing all over the deck. Dick danced first with Elinor Vanderley, and the old, old riddle of love ran true to form.
Why on earth is it that of two girls, equally beautiful, charming and accomplished, one leavesa man cold and the other sets him afire? To the impartial observer there was no disparity between Penelope Magnum and Elinor Vanderley. They even looked enough alike to pass for sisters, their voices were the same mezzo soprano, their eyes were like black pansies on a rose brown field and there was very little difference in their softly moulded features, except that Elinor's lips were a little fuller and more kiss-provoking. Add to these similarities the same height and bearing, and one would think they had the same mother. Yet Penelope never quickened Dick Marlin's heart by one beat, while Elinor set it pounding like a hard-driven typewriter.
It was Jim Cross' onion that Penelope would have liked to get

Dick going; several little moves of hers had been interpreted by him as gentle invitations to Dick. Jim even now was looking from Dick to her and from her to Dick, and she had noticed it.
"What's on your mind, Jim?" she asked when the Calantha was well up the river and they were dancing together. "You look as if you had discovered something or other."
"I don't tell tales out of school," he teased her.
"Oh, come, be a good fellow."
"I am a good fellow—that's why I don't tell everything I know."
"But you've been looking at me so hard that I have a right to know what it's about."
"Oh, I guess you'll know soon enough. I have an idea that something important will happen on this trip; but I'm no Cupid's assistant."
Penelope looked as if there were something she wished to believe but was afraid to.
By this time Dick Marlin was dancing with Lillian Holt. She was a round-limbed, olive-skinned, brilliant eyed, oversexed girl who made men quiver at her touch. Dancing the bump with Dick, she wrapped herself about him in such as erpentine embrace that he felt half-drugged. She raised her face and all but kissed him, and when she laid her cheek to his it burned, as if with a fever.
"Oh, Dick! Let's—let's dream!"
Dick began to be dizzy.
"Lord, Dick!" cut in Jim Cross, who was dancing with Rosalind Esmond, "the Washington bump is almost as deadly as the New York bump-off."
Jim's words were like a dash of cold water to Dick, Lillian jerked her head away from his shoulder, and till the end of the dance. Dick managed to keep his head close
Dick managed to keep his head clear "Well, Jim," he said merrilv be tween dances, "everything all right
so far. There's no trouble with the lights yet.'
"The deuce there isn't! The darned things won't go out."
"But who wants them to?"
"Everybody, except old Mrs. Woodland. She's got all the switches guarded."
"Good!"
"Bad! Never mind, just wait til we turn back for New York."
At ten oclock the girls opened their baskets and the party of fourteen made a circle on the deck. Dick Marlin sat between Penelope Magnum and Ellnor Vanderley, and Jim Cross leered opposite him between Rosalind Esmond and Lillian Holt. They ate and sang and joked, and told such stories as the party would stand for.
"Bear Mountain!" someone finally shouted.
The Calantha, as if surprised at having made such a respectable trip, turned sluggishly in the stream and headed back for New Yok. Dancing Elinor Vanderley. His courage had began again and Dick's partner was been growing on the trip; now he held Elinor close and whispered.
"Nell, Nell! Paradise!"
"So you're not ice, after all," she murmured.
"Not to you, Lady Paradise and never was."
"You surprise me" she fibbed. "You talk as if you meant it."
"I do."
"You don't. Men are natural liars when they talk to women."
"But you'll learn soon enough that I'm not lying, and that this very night."
The dance ended, and with it his excuse for holding her in his arms, eluctantly he let her go, and escorted her to a seat that was backed against the deck wall. She was almost alarmed at the look in his eyes. He seated himself beside her.
"Nell," he began, "I've been silent so long I'm ready to burst. I've always cared for you, and I've only held myself back because I didn't know—"
"Oh, Dick . Marlin! Come here, quick."
It was Jim Cross calling. Dick rose vexedly and went down the deck to Jim, who was whispering with two other fellows.
"Dick," said Jim, "grab your sweetie now. It's all fixed."
"What's fixed?"
"The Calantha will perform as usual. You've got about two minutes to—gosh! The fool! Why didnt he give us time?"
The lights had suddenly gone out while Jim was speaking.
19
All over the deck there were squeals shouts, and laughter. Somewhere inside the steamer Mrs. Woodland's voice stormed through the darkress and a man expostulated.
"Can't help it lady. The switches were watched, so somebody must have cut the wires."
"Believe me," raged Mrs. Woodland, "I'll find out who did and I'll—I'll prosecute him. Girls!"
Not a girl replied.
"Ladies of the committee!" shrilled Mrs. Woodland.
Evidently the ladies of the committee were not on the boat.
"Ladies of the committee! You hear me. We must get together and do something about this. It can't be tolerated."
"Mr. Cross! Is that you, Mr. Cross?" voice.
"N-o-t much!" rcared a masculine "No, ma'am—it's Marcus Garvey.' To Be Continued.
Restaurant Stuff
By AUNT DILSEY
Q. Please give me some information on restaurant behavior. Should the man precede or follow the woman in going to the table? Who gives the woman's order?
A. In restaurants and hotel dining rooms, the woman follows the head waiter as he shows them to the table, the man following her. At a restaurant dinner the woman gives her order to her escort, at his suggestion, and he delivers it to the waiter with his own. He should choose courses that correspond with the woman's choice of food, so as to make her feel entirely comfortable.
You Ask 'Em
By AUNT DILSEY
I bake very well and like to do the work. But I have not the money to open a shop, and it seems hard to get anything started in this neighborhood. What do you think sells best, and what is the best way to make it?
K. T.
Since you are living in the city I think your biggest trade would come from people who want individual pies, tarts, etc. That is, the people living in rooming houses, or those with small families. You might send notes around to the neighbors here, too, suggesting that they let you bake cakes for their parties, and giving your prices.

Do Preachers FIGHT?
Does a duck swim? Can a rooster crow or a small boy whistle?
Do preachers fight? Certainly they fight. Some of the hottest fights on record are between individual preachers and pastors. In some cases their congregations are drawn in, and if their influence is large enough the whole denomination is soon involved.
Three of the most striking church fights of the year took place this month in Philadelphia involving two denominations, hundreds of pastors and thousands of church members
Wright-Askew Case
The Rev. R. R. Wright, Jr., 925 N. 48th street, pastor of Ward A. M. E. Church, Philadelphia, and editor of the "Christian Recorder," official organ of the A. M. E. Church, was arrested on a warrant sworn to by the Rev. T. J. Askew, 4814 Aspen street, presiding elder of the Harrisburg District of the A. M. E. Church, and released on $600 bail
The Rev. Mr. Askew testified that the Rev. Mr. Wright was guilty of embezzlement of over $800 representing collections of rents for him. He also claimed that the Rev. Mr. Wright, who was formerly in the real estate business, had failed to pay taxes or water rents for one year on property but had deducted this sum from his settlement fees. He swore that Dr. Wright had refused to give him an account of the income and expenditures in connection with the property which he purchased from Dr. Wright, and announced his intention to fight him to the limit, even though he is a clergyman. What does Mr. Wright say? The Rev. Mr. Wright on the other hand, declares that the Rev. Mr. Askew owes him $400.
"And I intend seeing to it that he pays it." the Rev. Mr. Wright says.
"The Rev. Mr. Askew's claim that I owe him money is preposterous. He wants the rent from the time of the contract when he is only entitled to rent from the time of settlement. He could get no rent from the time of settlement because he occupied the house himself."
That's Mr. Wright's point of view and the day after the Rev. Mr. Wright was arrested, the sheriff's office levied on the Rev. Askew's home, his personal effects and his automobile.
The Philadelphia Tribune quotes Dr. Wright as saying the Rev. Mr. Askew is a fugitive from justice in Detroit, where he formerly pastored before coming to Philadelphia.
Do preachers fight? Well, now, er,—rather. But read this:
Dr. T. J. Askew's Explanation
In order that the Public may not be misled, I desire to publish the following statement:
"Not being thoroughly informed of the differences between Criminal and Civil Court proceedings, I was slightly misled to charge Dr. Wright, with something that was criminal when my intentions have never been to brand the good Dr. Wright with anything that pertains to criminality. The fact is that he and I have had a little misunderstanding over business matters. I consulted a lawyer, who immediately sent me into criminal prosecutions against Dr. Wright; when our little dispute over money matters, if it had to go to court to be settled, should have been settled in a civil court.
"After having had a chance to cool off I have had council with my old friend, Dr. S. T. Boyd, of Riverton, N. J., and acting under his advice. I am publishing this article so that the public may not be misled in my opinion of Dr. Wright, who for twenty-five years I have always found to be honest, straightforward, businesslike and brotherly. I have therefore decided to withdraw all charges. "Dr. Wright has never converted any of my money to his own use nor has he been guilty of embezzlement, nor have I at any time charged him with robbing ignorant people. T. J. ASKEW. "Signed in the presence of Sam- T. Boyd."
Graham-Jones Case
One faction of Pennsylvania State Baptists headed by the Rev. S. J. Jones, pastor of Tabernacle Baptist Church, and another faction led by the Rev. J. H. Wells, fought for supremacy for three days in the City Hall last week in the court room of Judge Taulane.
The court room was crowded during the proceedings with ministers and laymen who testified that first one faction and then the other had the right to be called the official Pennsylvania State Baptist Convention. All Baptist churches in the state are interested.
While the court proceedings were going on, the Jones faction was in State convention at Mr. Zion Baptist Church and the Dwelle faction at Ebenezer Baptist Church, Philadelphia.
The Lord's work has to go on, even if the ministers have to go to court to fight.
During the trial the Rev. S. J. Jones, pastor of Tabernacle Baptist Church, told the court that he was burning up to get on the witness stand and testify. At that moment the Rev. W. H. Graham, pastor of Holy Trinity Baptist Church, was on the stand.
"You'll get you chance," fired the Rev. Mr. Graham. "Your real name is Goodwin. You'll get a chance to tell why you left Arkansas."
The Rev. Jones' reply was that he
THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1928
♦ would make the Rev. Mr. Graham prove the allegation.
And so it makes no difference how the little affair of the Baptists come out, it looks like there will be a private feud between the Rev. Mr. Jones and the Rev. Mr. Graham for sometime to come.
Heard-Monk Case
Another fight between preachers in Philadelphia is the celebrated Heard-Monk case which came up for trial 10 days ago.
The Rev. Charles Monk, unfrocked because of certain disagreements with the presiding bishop, proceeded to lambast his enemy through a newspaper which he printed and circulated himself, and called the "New Era."
The "New Era" not only attacked Bishop Heard as a bishop and administrator but reflected upon his morals and his honesty.
Bishop Heard faced the Rev. Mr. Monk before Judge Gordon in Criminal Court. The court read at length from articles printed by the Rev. Mr. Monk in his paper.
THE COURT (continuing): "You know such things as that if true are proper for publication, but the man who publishes them and utters them without proof or their truth, cannot be said to be doing what he thought was the best thing for the interest of his church. I have to judge him guilty under this evidence. How old are you? REV. MR. MONK: I am 52. THE COURT: Bishop, Heard, what is your attitude?
BISHOP HEARD: It was to stop this publication and show my people that I was not guilty of these charges.
THE COURT: No. your attitude as to what you want me to do with this defendant.
Bishop Says Let Him Go
BISHOP HEARD: Well, I would be willing to have your Honor suspend sentence, if he agrees not to go any further.
THE COURT: Your greatest vindication in this matter is the fact that the man who uttered these drecful falsehoods has not been able to bring a syllable forward to prove them. He stands here, by his own
plea, a confessed libeller, and he could shout from the house tops hereafter and nobody would believe him. This was his opportunity to prove these charges against you, and he remained dumb and unable to bring a syllable against you. That is your real vindication in the matter.
(Addressing the Rev. Mr. Monk): You have got a bad tongue. You may have been an ordained minister, but you have a wicked tongue and a malicious mind. Such conduct as you charge against this gentleman, last to utter anything like this with-yourself, you should have been the but as a minister of the Gospel if true, should have been published; out absolute proof of it. You have injured this man, your brother of the cloth, grossly, and you deserve a severe jail sentence. I am bound to say that I am amazed at his forbearance. My intention had been to send you to jail for a year, as I sat here and heard this evidence. Your speech is not to be relied upon, the truth is not in you, and those who have read your paper had better know it. This was your day to prove the truth of your accusations. and you have said nothing.
This gentleman whom you deeply wronged has acted like a good Christian, he has not sought vengeance, he has but sought justification and vindication, and it has been shown here that the charges against him are not true, and he is vindicated to the tilt, and you are covered with shame and ignominy for your shameful conduct in saying what you did about this gentleman. You ought to go to jail, and I would send you willingly, but I have had an example set me today, and I am going to follow it. But on your bended knee you ought to ask the God you profess, to forgive you, and ask human forgiveness from this man you have wronged. If you don't do that there is no hope for you.
I will do what I am asked to do, and only because I am asked, and you have nobody to thank for your freedom, but the man you have wronged. I will put you on probation; but mind, you ought to go to jail. Don't you open your evil mouth again against anybody. It will do you no good, and as the result of today it will do nobody any harm—but keep your wicked tongue quiet. Do preachers fight? I'll leave it to you. Do they?

No skin is beautiful if the pores are large. Dirt easily gets into the small openings and blackhcads flourish there. Soon the skin begins to look dirty and no amount of washing makes it seem clean.
To remedy this use a clay pack once a week at least, after which apply a cold cream astringent. Do this religiously for six weeks and mark the happy results.

ROYAL KNIGHTS OF KING DAVID ENTER MARYLAND
Is The Pioneer Among Negro Fraternal Organizations
Continuing the pioneer spirit which has made them one of the largest Negro fraternal organizations in the world the Royal Knights of King David of Durham, North Carolina, have entered Maryland and are now busy engaged in helping such societies with their newly appointed representative Mr. David B. Craig, of 1807 Madison avenue.
65
Mr. David Buchanan Craig Is Appointed Field Agent
The Royal Knights of *King David* was organized in 1883 by W. F. G Pearson, its present leader, and was the first, Negro Fraternal Society in Chicago to present its benefits with Praternal Insurance. The Royal Knight organizations is a leader because it provides sick benefits thru local councils, burial benefits, accident benefits, hospital benefits, accident benefits, benefits fits, and Premium loans to members. The rates are low enough to meet the requirements of the average man yet high enough to insure safety. It offers benefits to the United States among Negroes to make provision for the excessive mortality among the race. Already Mr. Craig has succeeded in interesting many of Baltimore's residents, including Alexander Malone, H. C. Brown, Dr. J. G. McRae, Attty.

Demand For Great Prescription Rapidly Grows
Testimonials Show Many Benefited
PHYSICIANS AND DRUGGISTS ENDORSE MANTONE
City Merchant Says It Is Greatest Medicine Of The Age
Successfully used for more than fifty years in the daily practice of a noted physician, the prescription now sold under the name BENYNE is meeting with the same phenominal success that it had in the doctor's practice. Testimonial after testimonial, some from leading citizens, have been published weekly in this and other papers and hundreds of men and women throughout the city and state say they have benefited and sing praises to Mantone.
The manufacturers declare they stand ready to produce thousands of these statements, all written and authorized by actual users of Mantone. In the face of these facts physicians and druggists unhesitatingly say that no medicine could possibly live and grow without a patient and today hold record of thousands of testimonial letters as has Mantone without possessing great virtue and actual worth. Such a medicine must be looked upon as a real God send.
"I have used Mantone off and on for the past five years and I never intend to be without it. It is the greatest medicine I have ever taken works on the whole system, helps a man in every way and keeps me in the best of health. I do not believe in the world, I do not believe in the world," says Mr. A. E. Bruton, merchant, 1000 Leadenhall street, Baltimore, Md.
In all parts of the city, wide awake druggists realizing the ever increasing demand for MANTONE, are making a difference, making sure while the manufacturers are doing all in their power to supply the jobbers.

STRATON TALKS NEGRO DOWN IN TEXAS
N. Y. 'Sky Pilot' Also Raises Race Issue In His Campaign For Hoover
FORT WORTH, Texas. — That Rev. John Roach Straton, pastor Calvary Baptist Church, New York City, is viciously attacking the New York Negro in his speeches against Governor Smith, the law made by William M. McDonald, prominent cooled Republican leader who has bolted the G. O. P. in favor of the New York Governor's candidacy,
In an address recently made here Mr. McDonald charges that the Rev. Straton attacked the Negro and Tammany Hall, passed with picture connotation and debauchery crushed on by Harlem Negroes under Tammany control.
He was particularly indignant over the fact, as he claimed it, that a Negro in New York drawing $7,500 a year and has been granted a white stenographer through the influence of Tammany Hall.
