Hoover Silent on Negro In Inaugural BEWARE THE COUGH FROM COLDS THAT HANG ON 9 ACE'S EXPECTATIONS ARE NOT FULFILLED WASHINGTON, D.C. President Coolidge failed to fulfil the expectations of Negroes. When he succeeded the late President Harding August 2, 1923, it was believed that because he was a New Englander that he would give full recognition to the civil and political rights of colored Americans. His five years and seven months in the White House has dispelled this belief. When he came into the Presidency, colored Republicans were smarting under the treatment that had been accorded them by President Harding. There had been only a partial removal of the prescriptions, discrimination and segregation that had been put into effect during the Wilson regime. Three Appointments Glowing campaign promises of 1920 had not been kept. There had been only three appointments of colored Republicans to statutory positions, the Rev. Solomon Porte Horn, the Rev. Robert W. Anderson as collector of internal revenue in New York, and Arthur G. Froce as recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia. Revived Negroes revived their hopes when Mr. Coolidge took the oath of office. They recalled that he had declared for a more general recognition of their Constitutional rights, reiterated from all impositions on the granting of equal opportunities to them. Segregation He was petitioned to issue an executive order abolishing segregation in the Government service or to direct his Cabinet officer to do in what he considered daunting away with discrimination in the civil service. In answer he praised the achievements of the Negro race and counselled patience. His defenders interrupted the unexpired term of President Harding and was adhering strictly to the policies of his predecessor. They urged delay until after his election to the President, and he adopted and carry out his own policies. Tuskegee Hospital President Coolidge had inherited from President Harding a bitter rival, the United States Hospital for disabled Negro veterans at Tuskegee. Alabama. Alabama whites were demanding a staff of white persons to have charge and manage the hospital. Colored people introduced the United States upon a completed colored personnel! After threats of Alabama whites to destroy the hospital and a Ku Klux Klan group, President Coolide directed General Frank T. Hines, the director of Veterans Bureau, to turn the hospital over to an all-colored personnel. Cohen Fight There was one other bitter racial fight that came to President Coolidge from President Harding. It was the L. Cohen as comptroller of customs at New Orleans, Louisiana. President Harding had given Mr. Cohen a request appointment. He later sent him to Washington, where the Governor of Louisiana came to Washington and asked him to withdraw it because the appointment of a Nero to an office of this character was a person of this state. The Louisiana Senators raised personal objections to Mr. Cohen, and the Senate rejected him. President Harding gave him another request appointment, but the nomination of Mr. Cohen to the Senate in the six-worthth Congress. Twice Rejected President Harding carried out the intention of President Harding and returned the nomination to the Senate. Mr. Cohen was rejected a second time, but Senator Henrik Shinstead, Farmer-Labor, of Minnesota, moved a re-deration and Mr. Cohen was finally confirmed. Incidentally President Willer will inherit from President Clinton the question of his reappointment of his predecessor, his a year ago. The Republican State organization of Louisiana, which is now lily-white, has recommended a white man to succeed him. President Clinton has no action on their recommendation but that Mr. Cohen had made a good public officer and has no reason Coughs from colds may lead to serious trouble.

President Cleveland positions will Hoover make available eight, and President Harrison three. PRESIDENT MCKINLEY WASHINGTON, (Special). —What positions will Hoover make available for colored office holders after March 4. is the question that is agitating members of the kitchen cabinet here. Arthur J. S. Smith, familiar with presidential appointments for 64 years, has compiled a list of 63 presidential appointments. Of these 49 represent foreign and 44 national positions. This covers 13 presidential terms from Andrew Johnson in 1855 to Calvin Coolie, 1895. President Johnson named the first colored person to office when he commissioned Henry McNeal Turner, of Georgia, to explain in the regular Army in 1865. **GRANT LED WAY** President Grant who followed him led the campaign to appoint a follower by appointing colored men as ministers to Haiti and to Liberia. He also named Frederick Douglas police commissioner of Georgia, and appointed other men also to such positions as internal revenue agent and inspector of customs. **PRESIDENT HAYES** President Hayes appointed five colored men to office including the first United States marshal of the Disti- trict of Columbia, Frederick Dou- glas; assistant and office ister of the land office. **PRESIDENT GARFIELD** President Garfield made only two appointments, but among them was the first colored man as register of the Treasury. **PRESIDENT ARTHUR** President Arthur made five ap- Found Woman In Her Own Bed Found Woman In Her Own Bed WASHINGTON (CNS) — Mrs. Corrine White of 941 Westminster street, northwest told judge McMahon. Monday, that she came home late Sunday night and found another woman occupying her bed. Ira White, her Norman address unknown, were arraigned in a statutory charge. Both declared that they were perfect strangers to each other. White said that Sunday night he met Mr. Norman on the street intoxicated and she requested that he take her somewhere where she could sleep until she was in condition to go home. White declared that he permitted her to go to his room and his bed, and there his wife found her. Mrs. White declared that she found them both asleep and called the police. Mrs. Norman was sentenced to pay a fine of $25 or serve a term of thirty days, and White was committed for a separate hearing. for removing him. President Hoover will have to decide whether to give him a reappointment or name a successor to him. Mr. Hoover was suspended from the job. Mr. Hoover, but if he is not given another term it will be taken as an indication of a policy not to appoint colored persons to office in the South. After his election in 1924, seventeen demands were presented to President Coolidge by the late William C. Matthews, who had directed the campaign work among colored voters. These demands ranged from approval of a loan of $5,000,000 to the Liberian Government to appointations in the diplomatic corps. The diplomatic corps, Coolidge stated that these demands had not reached him. It is certain, however, that none of them was met. Judge Cobb To the appointments made by President Harding, President Coolidge added that of James A. Cobb the District of Columbia to succeed the late Judge Robert H. Terrell who had filled that judgeship even through the Democratic administration. The district was resigned as minister to Liberia, and President Coolidge nominated William T. Francis to succeed him. These two were the only colored men in the district to be nominated by Government in addition to suns for maintenance and salaries a gymnasium, armory and athletic field costing $175,700, a medical school building costing $180,000 for a women's dormitory building and $310,000 for a chemistry building. $170,000 was given to Howard University while President Coolidge was in office.

C.—(Special)—President Hoover made no reference directly or indirectly of the Negro and the race problem in his inaugural address Monday. Other Presidents in taking office deemed the race problem of sufficient importance to declare themselves upon it as follows: Ulysses S. Grant—First Inaugural, March 4, 1869. "The question of suffrage is one which is likely to agitate the public so long as a portion of the citizens of the Nation are excluded from its privileges in any State. It seems to me very desirable that this question should be settled now, and I entertain the hope and express the desire that it may be fulfilled the definition of the fifth article of amendment to the constitution." Ulysses S. Grant—Second Inaugural, March 4, 1873 "The effect of the late civil strife has been to free the slave and make him a citizen. Yet he is not possessed of the civil rights which citizenship should carry with it. That wrong and should be corrected. To this correction I stand committed, so far as Executive influence can avail. "Social equality is not a subject to question. I ask that anything be done to advance the social status of the colored man except to give him a fair chance to develop what there is good in him; give him access to the world; let him feel assured that his conduct will regulate the treatment and care he will receive." Rutherford B. Hayes—March 5, 1877 5.1877. "The evils which afflict the southern states can only be removed or remedied by the united and harmonious effort of both races, actuated by motives of mutual sympathy and regard; and while in duty bound and fully determined to protect the rights of the people at the disposal of my administration, I am sincerely anxious to use every legitimate influence in favor of honest and efficient local self-government of those states for the promotion of the contentment and prosperity of their citizens. "In the effort I shall make to accomplish my purpose I ask cordial cooperation between me and cherish an interest in the welfare of the country, trusting that party ties and the prejudice of race will be freely surrendered in behalf of the people by the people. . . . Let me assure my countrymen of the southern states that it is my earnest desire to regard and promote their trust in the people colored people both and equally— and to put forth my best efforts in behalf of a civil policy which will forever wipe out in our political affairs the color line and the distinction between North and South, to the end that we may have merely a united North or a united South, but a united country." James A. Garfield—March 4. 1881. "The emancipated race has already made remarkable progress. With unquestioning devotion to the union, with a patience and genius, they have followed the light as God gave them to see the light. "They are rapidly laying the material foundation of self-support, indenting a circle of intellect and beginning to enjoy the blessings that gather around the homes of the industrious poor. They deserve the generous encouragement of all men. So far as my husband is extended, they shall enjoy the full protection of the constitution and the laws." Grover Cleveland—First Inaugural, March 4, 1885. "In the administration of the government, we must and exact justice to all men there should be no pretext for anxiety touching the protection of the freedmen in their rights or their security in the enjoyment of their constitution and its amendments." "All discussion as to the place accorded to them as American citizen is as unprofitable as it is unsuccessful for their improvement. The fact that only are citizens entitles them to all the rights due that relation charges them with all its duties obligations and responsibilities." Be. jamin Harrison—March 4, 1889. "The community that by concert, open or secret, among its citizens deny a portion of its members their plain rights under the law, has severed the only safe bond of social order and prosperity in the world, and has centered both ways. It demoralizes those who practice it and destroys the faith of those who suffer by it in the efficiency of the law as a safe protector. The man in whose breast faith has been destroyed is naturally the subject of dangers and uncanny suggestions, but unlawful methods, if moved by a higher motive than the selfishness that prompted them, may well stop and impquire what is to be the end of this." Grover Cleveland—Second Inaugural, March 4, 1893 "Loyalty to the principles upon which our government resists positively demands that the equality before the law which it guarantees to every citizen should be justly and in good faith conceded. The enjoyment of this right of the badge of citizenship who found, and unimpaired by race or color, it appeals for recognition to American manliness and fairness." William McKinley—First Inaugural, March 4, 1897 "Lynching must not be tolerated in a great and civilized country like the United States; courts, not mobs, must execute the penalties of the law." Warren G. Harding—March 4, 1921 "Our fundamental law recognizes no class, no group, no section. There must be none in legislation or administration." D. C. TO HAVE 4-YEAR TEACHERS' COLLEGE D. C. TO HAVE 4-YEAR TEACHERS' COLLEGE WASHINGTON. — The discussion over priority for the graduates of local normal schools was settled by Congress by providing that the graduates from two years to four years, and that, beginning with 1933, outdoor teachers shall be permitted to come in and compete with the local graduates.

(ANP) — Rum syphilis, and illegitimate children are the outstanding results fifty years' missionary work of white people in the Congo, Africa, so declares Charles Williams, lawyer and clerk of the Juvenile Court here, and an elder Baptist Church. CORRECTIONS ENLIVEN MINISTERS' MEETING the Prince William's has recently returned to this country from which he left on a six months' trip to the hinterlands of Africa as a delegate to the world-wide convention in Berlin. Since returning, he has pictured conditions that they are today in the Black Fatherland, giving lectures in York and in Boston New York. "The black people of Africa are crying for the advent c' their blood brothers from America, as missionaries when they believe will bring to them the teachings of real Christianity... to yield, of the white man's just for gold and thirst for power." Mr. Wil- "All my preconceived ideas of Africa and her people received a rude shock immediately. After I amed there. The first mislead led the Equator to under two blankets. Instead my visionary land of plenipotent green foliage of fields and forests, abounding in tropical fruits and vegetation my eyes metery barren hills underneath whose surface lies mountainous blocks of copper and in whose streams of water which the natives swim bounds." are far off the surface of the land is barren the very expressions on the faces of native men and women prove they are a counterpart. They have no souls. They know how to care for Garvey than they know about Jesus Christ and they are avidly awaiting the coming of the 'messianic president General of Africa.' I made speeches to the natives through an interpreter, but many times after the meetings were over some African brother sitting up to me whispered in perfective English. 'Say how much Garvey getting along there?' "The only thing the European powers fear in Africa is the name of Marcus Garvey. I came near precipitating a riot and deportation was threatened at one time when I casually in a speech extolled Garvey. "I dined at the same restaurant with a girl out from my home in Georgia. "To have some in my state would have been cause for a lynching bee." There is not much hope for the Africans as long as white missionaries from Mississippi, Texas, and Alabama predominate. These missionaries' sole purpose is to live a life of ease, under the true calm sun with black servants at their beeks and in the company are fifteen million natives in the Congo and not a single gum or dust of powder is in their hands. They are ruled at the cum points of less than eight thousand white men, whose chief interest is gold for the House of Leopold and of European Belém. "Until white folk accept the natives whose chief interest is gold for the House of Leopold and of European Belém." Christianity can never make headway in Africa against the Mohammed faith whose tenents are based on fellowship, love, and truth. "Africa must be redeemed by its outsides overcome. After the blood of white missionary shibbels the clothing of the natives is much beyond the fit leaf stare. "Mudding by the treatment of triple African subjects on African soil the much vaimed love of the Greenman for the Nero is the Greenman." Mr. Williams concocted "The great world conceived over African wealth whose resources, form the backbone of European financial stability." WOODMEN TO MEET IN DENVER DENVER. Colo. (ANP) The American Woodmen of Denver, Colorado, announced this meeting that the Seventh Quadrennial Meeting will be Denver, August 12 to 17. INSTEAD of exercise Do it tonight! Join the ranks of the millions who know the secret of the exerciser in the vest-pocket box for a dime. Cascarets give your bowls as much exercise as you get from an hour on the links. Oils, salts and an ordinary lace don't act like Cascarets. These lace only produce mechanical or chemical action which really weakens your bowls. Each time you use Cascarets your bowels become stronger! They are made from Cascarea Sagrada, which stimulates the peristaltic action and exercises the bowl muscles. Nothing else does this. That's why Cascareats are called the rate of 20 million boxes a year, and people everywhere depend on them for lasting relief from headaches, billiousness, constipation, indigestion, etc. CASCARETS STRENGTHEN THE BOWELS Children 6-14, retarded, exception or need special instruction or training. Saying that it reflects on the ecclesiastical dignity and prestige of the assembly, Baptist ministers, meeting at Enon Baptist Church Monday, determined unanimously to eliminate "discrepant statements" and "incorrect grammar" among their brethren speakers. Telling the ministers that he had just received $75 for two sermons, stating that it was the largest amount he had ever been given for that number of sermons, the Rev. J. W. Dupree was called to question by the priest. A praxy he had further stated that he was preparing to leave the city in the next thirty days in search of a field. Upon being shown by the critic that he had announced in a recent meeting he had been given the charge of one of the biggest churches in the country, the Rev. Dupree was admonished by the ministers for the inconsistency of the statements. "The Rev. Elias Parker, declaring in the meeting his recent call to the ministry, was admonished by the ministers for referring to the Apostles as "the boys." The ministers held it was a sacrilege. Disapprove Grammar Following corrections of the critic the ministers openly attempted the use of the phrase "It ain't no man in town." "what men has done," "they give me" for they gave me, "I intends" and "I does." Those corrected for their grammar were advised that such mistakes could be easily avoided by a little study and reading. The reading of the minutes of the last meeting and the closing of the miscellaneous period the meeting was adjourned to permit the ministers to hear the presidential inauguration ceremonies. AMONG THE CHURCHES AMONG THE CHURCHES Women's Day was held at John Wesley Sunday, at which time platform meetings, sermons and other celebrations were given exclusive access to the church, church, church, and by women of other churches. "The Way of the Cross," a religious drama, was given at 8 p.m. by the ushers of the church. The story had to do with the death of a physician while attempting to lead the proper kind of life. The Young Woman's auxiliary of the church gave a chocolate sip at the home of the ushers. Monday evening at 8 p.m. Mrs. Ida Norris is director. Miss Mamie Joynes, president, and Miss Lillian Macer, vice president. Communion at Centennial Holy Communion was administered at Centennial M.E. Church Sunday morning, at which time the Rev.

Thomas Advises Old-Time Religion Telling his congregation that if they don't change their defiant attitude toward God, the Rev. J. W. Thomas, preaching at Trinity A. M. E. Church Sunday warned that there are 6,000 square miles of fir, struggling in the bowels of the earth to be unleashed upon them. "Let me say to them right now," the Rev. Thomas shouted, there are 6,000 square miles of fire struggling in the bowels of the earth and who knows when it may be unleashed? "As in Noah's time," he said, "million in the world look with contempt on the church and even ridicule the prophecy of destruction of the world by fire. Brazen unbelievers feel secure in revelations of modern science and have actually assumed a defiant attitude toward the Cd who created and sustains them. "The preachers, the church, the Holy Spirit are calling men to repentance and I tremble to think of the fate of those who will not hearken." Defining the characteristics of the Church, the Spirit is never late for church, and members who are, don't come with the Spirit, but find Him there." BISHOP LANE 96 JACKSON, Tenn—Bishop Lane, of the C. M. E. Church, celebrated his 96th birthday and the 56th anniversary of his election to the bishopric, at home, Sunday.

He preaches occasionally and likes to work in his garden. "I have never drunk whiskey nor smoked," he said, accounting for his old age, "but that possibly does not mean much for I have friends almost as much as I have both. So you can take your choice." He is the founder of Lane College in this city of which his son, Dr. T. F. Lane, is president.

No Money In The Opening Of Headquarters For Bishops Kansas Pastor Has Helped Seven To Reach Tre Highest Office In The Church Without Money And Without Price .. Churches Less Flourishing Than Fifteen Years Ago--Dr. Stewart NASHVILLE, Tenn. — There is $200 money in opening a headquarters for candidates for the bishopric, the Rev J. R. Ransom, of Topeka, Kansas, writes in the recent issue of the Western Christian Recorder. According to the Rev. Mr. Ransom he has been going to General Conferences for thirty years and no one has ever given him a cent for anything he did. He was invited headquarters and lotted after the campaign of Bishops Tyree, Shafer and C. S. Smith and "When they offered to pay me I refused to take one cent from them. "In 1006 I rented two rooms in Norfolk, Va, and conducted a campaign for Bishops H. B. Parks and another for their friends, neither they nor their friends ever paid me a cent. "In Kansas City, Mo. in 1912, I rented headquarters and looked after the interests of Bishops Hurst and Jones. But it never cost them one cent. In fact, no one knew except Bishop Parks and R. C. Ransom that I rented headquarters for them. But it didn't cost them anything and so through the years I have served my friends in the best way I could for general offices, and bishoprics without money or price. I have not ever asked them for an appointment except Bishop Tyree who turned me cow." Episcopal Committee The Rev. Mr. Ransom is head of Not a single church in Baltimore is as flourishing as it was 15 years ago. But the church, told the A. M. E. Preachers Meeting at Bethel Church, Monday. Mergers of smaller churches, abandonment of others and improved pastoral methods, he declared, must follow if the church is make progress. Larger churches are having all they can do to hold their own, he said, and are not in position to aid missions as in former years. Illustrating how they must not only chick but get down under the load of their parishioners, Dr. Stewart said, he not only visited the sick, but carried them financial aid, bought coal and wood, made fires and swept the sick room. When horses and buggies were in wide use, Dr. Stewart declared, rural churches were well filled. Members drove ten miles over muddy roads to church. In the age of country church members stay home when dirt roads are muddy. The preacher whose main idea was to make the congregation shout is being supplanted by the preacher who can serve the community. Preaching is equal or better than it was fifteen years ago, said the pastor. In fact, we have no preacher still in service, but their congregations are not as active and enthusiastic. Radio, movies, Sunday sports, and a variety of entertainments are helping to supply social needs of people who once had only the church as a social center. Dr. Stewart predicted Sunday movies in Baltimore and still stiffer competition, for the churches. peltor J. W. Norris and Rev. J. W. Warren also agreed that the church must rouse itself to compete with other agencies. Trinity Pastor To Speak The Rev. Charles E. Stewart, pastor of Trinity A.M.E.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER September 24, 1904— Sphenopus' sympathy goes out to Paul Laurence Dunbar, Dunbar, post and prose writer, writing about the death of John Dunbar at the residence of his mother in Dayton, Ohio. There he was born and there he spent the rest of his life. carrier years. He has been ill off and on for the past two or three years, but the present illness is caused by a cold contracted in New York last May, which developed into pneumonia. Tuberculosis has resulted despite the utmost care. He has grown steadily weaker and new physicians have given up all hope for his recovery. Mr. Dunbar is aware that his days are numbered and accepts the situation, but regrets he has not been able to do more for his health. Three years ago he made a trip to Colorado in the hope of finding relief. He remained there entirely cured. something His death would be regretted not only by col- ored people, but everybody the world over. He is one of the most promising of posts. S. M. Mullery Hail Hoover! Mr. Herbert Hoover, 30th President of the United States, took the oath of office and delivered his inaugural address. Monday. In this, as in his campaign speeches, Negro stretched their ears in vain to hear a word of sympathy or encouragement in the great fight they are waging to attain citizenship. Mr. Hoover confined his remarks to law enforcement, justice, prohibition, court, national defense,rift and farm relief, government business and health. Of the Negro, he said nothing directly or indirectly. Nor is the AFRO-AMERICAN greatly surprised. Mr. Hoover is not "our man or our model." Mr. Hoover has traveled on every continent. He has viewed the colors of colored races in China, Burma, South Africa, Australia and South America, but always from the point of view of the aristocratic and wealthy.

He has viewed the process of colored races in China, Burma and Africa. Australia and America, but always from the point of view of the aristocratic and wealthy. At 21 Mr. Hoover earned $18,000 a year. Today he is rich. He is America's first millionaire President. We had no idea that rich and scientific Mr. Hoover could see in the race problem a cause more than passing notice. We had no idea that rich and scientific Mr. Hoover could see in the race problem a cause demanding more than passing notice. Time was when the inauguration of a President meant to negate Republican hopes we plant for Negotiate citizenship. The inaugural messages of Lincoln, Grant, Hayes, Cleveland and McKinley warmed the Negro's heart. But the latter days have briot Harding and Coolidge and realization that occupants of the White House can become inarticulate on the race question. Mr. Hoover, the new President; we wish him a successful and prosperous administratop. but to use the words of Dr. Francis J. Grinke. preaching in Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church last Sunday, we prophesy he'll be no more helpful to the Negro than Mr. Coolidge, and perhaps not as much help. Time was when the inauguration of a President meant a restatement of Republican hopes and plans for Negro citizenship. The inaugural messages of Lincoln, Grant, Hayes, Cleveland and McKinley warmed the Negro's heart. But the time was before Harding and Clinton and realization that occupants of the White House can become inarticulate on the race question.

Negro Dialect Ain't Negro dialect ain't if Mr. Edwin D. Johnson, superintendent of colored schools, Henderson, N. C., is to be believed. Addressing the North Carolina Society of Research at Payetteville, N. C., last week, Mr. Johnson delivered himself of the following: Addressing the North Carolina Society of Research at Payetteville, N. C., last week. Mr. Johnson delivered himself of the following: "There is no distinct Negro dialect, and the Negro has made no distinct contribution to English speech, and the American has used by both colored and white people, and local color writers have originated dialects to fit particular situations." Mr. H. L. Menken, critic and extraordinarily, is responsible for the statement that if a screen were placed in front of a Southerner so that he could not be seen, it would be impossible to tell his color from the language he use. With such testimony from representatives of both races qualified to speak, there is no dissent. The Negro native of Massachusetts has a nasal twang but no dialect. He speaks the Yankee tongue. In Pennsylvania he acquires the intonations of a German-American. In Dixie he has learned and "dut" a southern drawl and his "I am coming," says the black Bostonian. "I see a comit," says the black Atlantan. This is precisely the language of the white folk of these two cities. And so we dispose of another myth; namely, that the Negro has created an English dialect of his own. That belief must be put in the light of the fact that he has said that the Negro has a PECULAR bankering for wristenium and chicken, and that the dice game is so natively his that it should be called African golf.

Mencken, erotic and editor extraordinary, is responsible for the statement that if a screen were placed in front of a Southerner so that he could not be seen, it would be impossible to tell his color from the language he uses.

"Tse a comit," says the black Atlantan. This is precisely the language of the white folk of these two cities. And so we dispose of another myth: namely, that the Negro has created an English dialect in his own belief and attitude in the other other notorious embraced by those who have said that the Negro has a PECULIAR hankering for wintersl and chicken, and that the dice game is so natively his that it should be called African golf. Yes — Negro dialect ain't. Flip Flipper The South Florida Conference, A.M.E. Church, voted against organic union with the A.M.E. Zion denomination last week, after Bishop J. S. Flipper, who presided, had voiced his opposition to unification. One of the venerable prelate's objections was that the Zionists permit ordination of women. Very likely Bishop Flipper has other objections, but we trust they are more significant than the Zionists. Whether women ought to become preschers and pastors is a question for congregations, not bishops to solve. Certainly their failure to receive a female pastor would be a far more effective argument than any declaration of a bishop, who at 70, has reached the age when many men feel they should no longer direct great organizations. Unification of Methodist churches is an economic and spiritual imperative. In this period the church cannot afford to disregard the signs of the times, unless it deliberately sets itself toward decadence and poverty. The South Florida Conference, A.M.E.

Unification of Methodist churches is an economic and spiritual imperative. In this period of business mergers and cooperation, the church cannot afford to disregard the signs of the times, unless it deliberately sets itself toward deprivation and poverty. There ought to be enough forward-looking Methodists in America to vote Bishop Flipper down. Dr. Moton Wins News dispatches from Washington indicate that Dr. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, is to have the ear of President Hoever Obama next for years in all matters involving the war of the 2016. This might seem strange, in view of the fact that Dr. Moton's nominee for head of the Hover Campaign Committee lost out to Mr. John R. This might seem strange, in view of the fact that Mr. Johnson is a candidate for the Campaign. Committees, lost cut- to Mr. John R. K. Hawkins, Washington banker and churchman, Mr. Hawkins directed the campaign, but Dr. Motton's friends "played ball with him." This is an element of strength after all. The willingness of Messrs. Albon Holsey and Holsey Phillips, of the Motors for force, to cooperate fully with Mr. Hawkins must have convinced Mr. Hoover that Dr. Motron was willing to aid his cause, no mat- ter what the played first fiddle. Mr. Hoover's determination to give an ear to Dr. Motron's counsel is, after all, no new thing, nor should it be regarded as unusual. Dr. Motron's predecessor was friend and unofficial adviser of Presidents Roosevelt and Taft. Dr. Motron has been called by Wilson, Harding and Coolidge for policies and proposals and colored people. Harding and Harding passed this counsellor on to their successor. It looks as if Mr. Coolidge has done the same thing. AfroReadersSay Readers may write on any subject they like.

MADDEN, 105 Bainbridge Street, Brooklyn, N.Y. Suggests Need Of Matrons In City Police Stations. To the Editor: I notice in the daily papers that extra matrons for the police stations in Baltimore City are provided by the terms of a bill which has been passed in the House of Delegates and sent to the Senate. Why not you, Mr. Editor, and other public-spirited citizens in the city, make a demand that colored matrons be appointed for work in the Western and Northwestern police stations. I have been advised that frequently colored women are detained at these police stations—many innocent, and others on trivial charges. Many people believe that a colored matron would help make smooth the way of her erring sister—and in many cases redemer as a beneficial member of society.

Why? Why not that anything was wrong in the inside of your organization, why in the thunder did you not say so before you got kicked out? Don't you know, it makes you look SLICTHTY suspicious, when, after you get booted out of the premises into the street, you are affected by the actions of those are crooks in the, and I stayed in there with them as long as they would let me—but now they have kicked me out. Of course, if you are attacked, after being kicked out of the premises into the street, you yourself. But if things are as bad as you say on the inside, why did you not come out willingly? Then your position would be more advantageous and your charges move convincing? Perhaps things are much the same you say, but now you cannot help them much. What's the matter with you, anyway? Don't you know that if you just must fight, the Pullman Company will give you all the fighting you can stand up under—and then some?

If any of you knew that anything was wrong on the inside of your organization, why in the thunder did you not say so before you got kicked out? Don't you know, it makes you hole yourself, sullied, and you get booted out of the premises into the street, you jump up and yell for the police and say, in effect, "Those are crooks in there, and I stayed in there with them as long as they would let me go." Of course, if you are attacked, after being thrown out, you must defend yourself. But if things are as bad as you say on the inside, why did you not come out willingly? Then your position would be more advantageous than ours. Of course, your things are as bad as you say, but now you cannot help them much.

Haircutting An Art Also, we stated, the senate and the state goes beyond the proper function of the government in having this "board" to decide, not only upon the proper questions of sanitation and health, but upon the matter of a barber's efficiency in cutting hair and shaving beards. It explains that the business is annotated a science requiring mathematics and analytical chemistry; and that whether a hair cut was good or not depended mostly upon taste. The legislature might try to regulate the sanitary features of the shops style, health of the workers, the shop style, if I got a hair cut which I liked, the unanimous opinion of the whole senate would not matter a damn. Also, we stated, the senate and the state goes beyond the proper function of the government in having this "board" to decide, not only upon what the barber should do, but upon the matter of a barber's efficiency in cutting hair and shaving beards.

The legislature might try to regulate the sanitary features of the shops. The senate would not, if I got a hair cut which I liked, the unanimous opinion of the whole senate would not matter a damn. That Voice "Where did you come from?" asked one sen- sor and another; "You voice looks like some colored man I heard once in Chicago." I gave a deliberate half- answer to both of these questions by say- ing, "No. I do not live in Indianapolis, but our organization lives here and in many other part of this state." **Schools** Besides, we told them, they are requiring examination in subjects "taught in barber schools", although colored barbers may not be admitted to the barber schools and colored people not able to maintain some of their own. while white customers are educated in schools for Negroes only—Then one of the men was moved to remark: "Forget the idea that, white people want to take advantage of Negroes." **Forget** "Impossible," said I. "For any sane Negro to forget that in America because of what it remember we might be wrong, we might REMEMBER that some white people do not want to take advantage of Negroes. I admitted that, BECAUSE OF CONDI- TIONS IN AMERICA, colored people will often be suspicious what is "what" the color people will often be suspicious when colored people mean no wrong: that colored people will not be permitted to "forget" it in America, even though they would like to. Then I told them the story: The mother called down into the cellar: "The mother with Johnny? What is he the screaming about?" And Johnny's bigger brother called up to her: "An- nuthin' the matter with him! Make him stop yelling; he just bawls out every time I hit him in the head with the hammer!" "Where did you come from?" asked one senator at this point, and another said, "Your voice sounds like some colored man, once in Chicago of these questions by saying: 'No, I do not live in Indianapolis, but our organization lives here and in many other parts of this state.'" **Schools** Besides, we told them, they are requiring examination in subjects "taught in school schools, although the barbers must not be admitted to the barber schools and colored people not able to maintain some of their own—while white customers would be prejudiced against Negro barbers educated in schools and Negroes only. The white men moved to remain." Forget the idea that, white people want to take advantage of Negroes. **Forget** "Impossible," said I. "for any sane Negro to forget that in America, because forgetting it will not alter the fact of it. Although we might REMEMBER that white people do not advantage of Negroes. I admitted that, BECAUSE OF CONDITIONS IN AMERICA, colored people will often be suspicious when white people mean no wrong, and white people mean no wrong; that colored people will not be permitted to "forget it" in America, even though they would like to. Then I told them the story: The mother called down into the cellar: "What's the matter with Johnny? What is he screaming about her? 'Ain't Johnny's bigger brother with him!

Legal Pro And Con Involved In The Vanlandingham Case. To the Editor: I read a letter in a recent issue of your paper on a constant reader" in reference to the Rev. Vanlandingham, under the caption of "Pro and Con." The constant reader gave a laconic explanation as to his encounter with a minister on a train, and according to the writer, exhibited his views concerning the conduct of his fellow pastor in the negative. I shall venture to state many ministers have taken the negative in this particular statement, and the act of enticing an unmarried female of previous chaste character to illicit carnal intercourse by persuasion and promises it is doubtful whether it was criminal before the statutes of 4 and 5 January 1911, 34 Ark. 511. The offense differ considerably under the statutes of the different states. The usual promise, if not the only sufficient one, is a promise of marriage; and it has been held that the promise is not the contrary, but the woman may have previously left such a promise is insufficient on which to found a seduction charge. It has been said that one can be seduced once; but the promise is the contrary, and the woman may have previously left the path of virtue on account of the seductive arts of some other person, she may have repented of the act and reformed; and yet it is clear the evidence of reformation is not justified for subsequent act, must be clear and convincing. If a married woman deserves a girl on promise of marriage, she not knowing that he has a wife the premature of marriage, should he him. I could also many similar rulings here, but space not permit. Mr. Farrel should seek the proper legal advice and I am sure in doing so, it would be to make these common practices among the ministers.

MARSHELL, The Only Amalgamation Worthy of Contemplation Is That Which Comes of Its Own Accord. When Not Sought and When Not Avoided. Amalgamation would certainly solve the race problem. If the race problem were solved, there would certainly be, amalgamation. The old Vermont farmer used to observe that whenever it grew warm, the snow melted, and whenever the snow melted it grew warmer. Cause and effect are so indisputable that it is hard to determine which precedes the other. Several weeks ago I issued a release upon the subject of amalgamation which has provoked widening dissension throughout the Negro press. None of the facts which I then marshaled have been disputed nor the deductions of the law which general conclusion was that from analysis of the forces and influences now at work, amalgamation could not be consumed within any time we care for. For the sake of ready reference I will here restate the essential reasons. The white race has the will to itself pure by resorting to such protective devices as segregation, separate schools, separate cars, anti-misregulation laws and like proscriptive measures to make this 2. Twenty-nine of our forty-eight states have enacted anti-misegregation laws while the United States has strong sentiments on the subject that such prohibitive laws are likely whenever a sufficiently strong vocalization arises. A measure is now pending before Congress to nationalize 3. The present degree of amalgamation has been effected through ilegitimacy which has greatly decreased. On account of the growing pride and self-respect of the victimized race. (b) on account of the manipulation of the factors of birth control which estops ilegitimate issue. 4. The border line contigually between the race, the family, the male tendencies, one, mainly males, crossing into the white race and the other, mainly females, marring backward on the chromatic scale. amalgamation is rapidly diffusing white blood already injected into the race thru the entire mass. The two great racial groups will become more distressed as this process becomes more complete. Not Final White Fathers Will To Be While It is doubtless true that the Negro has the will to be white. The face lotions and hair straighteners on which Nero papers thrive, prove that the Negro is more visually of the darker male to mate with the lighter female. But the surrest war to defeat amalagamation is for the Negro to declare that he wants it. If a single eminent Negro should openly advocate amalagamation he would be accused by his advocacy the probable effect would be to have additional states pass antimisegregation laws. Probable It is not a question as to whether amalagamation is wise or unwise, advantageous or disadvantageous, desirable or undesirable, but it whether it is probable that Negrito may wisely base his present programs upon it. To my mind it is perfective that the Negrito in this country will become one with the white race, which becomes a righteousness out of deference to the exactions of race prejudice. If the Negrito must wait till he becomes white before he can secure his position in the ethical principles of Christianity and democracy? On the Negrito's part it would be a cowardly surrender of all that the best members of the community be willing to for through the years. Let us ask the most ardent amalagamationist how much time must needs elapse before race prejudice can be overcome by our major intention, that it will take place in time. What must the race do in the meantime? Must the Negrio concede all of the white race but all of the advantages and virtues of life to whiteness of skin? Or must he insist upon the birthright of humanity as all the values and virtues of human culture? Demand. Would you ask the next ten or twenty generations of Negritos to sacrifice themselves in taking place? Or must they not demand, rather.

That's where schools come in to teach kids how to get along after they are got out of bed. He's his kid in a derby and night shirt. Another put salt in everything he ate without tasting it. Another drove him to work. Still another jugged his knife and fork before eating. Wives have punk habits too—lying around in felt slippers, greasy stockings, and fist fights.

Not in cold temples built by human hands. But in broad benefice of skies. And in the flowering-time of meadow-lands. I have heard Thy voice. Not in the pauses of a priest! But in the tender whisperings of the leaves And in the tender breathings of the air I have felt Thy touch. Not in the rush of wow'd delight or gain. But in the stress of agony and tears, And in the slow pulsations of strong pain. I have known Thy love.

All Disfranchisement Is Not In Dixie (Brooklyn Eagle) Roughly speaking, the South African Union of the Cape of Good Hope, the Republic of South Africa, State and Natl has 1,500,000 Caucasian population and 5,500,000 native population. Yet under the terms of the Constitution, a member of either branch of the Union's Legislature who is not of "European descent," the Cape province makes no distinction of race; Natal permits a few Africans to vote; Transvaal and the Orange Free State allow no native race; the white candidates different parties, the natives are said to hold the balance of power in twelve Cape constituencies, while the black candidates this part of Africa have about the same sort of participation in government as the Negroes i. i: Mississippi or South Africa; they must be made a white man's country. It was to meet friction arising from these conditions that Prime Minister Hertzog, by no means a friend of the Irish, has ended by segregated representation the balance of power in those Cape constituencies. The Africans vote separately, by themselves and choose five white men to have seats in the lower house. In each of the other three provinces Africans voting separately would have numbered fourteen out of a total of 135. Hertzog was beaten by the followers of the opposition, the Title of his bill was misleading and hypocritical. The Measly Measles February and March usher in the height of the measles season. In fact, March is commonly known as the month of measles, and also bring their share of chickenpox, German measles, coils and gripe, which in large measure are due to poorly ventilated and overheated homes and classrooms. Let their children be exposed to measles and make light of the disease. But according to our best medical authorities this is a mistaken idea. German measles is really a dangerous disease. The first symptoms of measles are watery, red, a watery discharge from the nose, cough, drowsiness, loss of appetite, loss of energy, rash appears in the body about the fourth or fifth day. The disease is highly contagious and children, especially those under five years old, should be shielded against exposure. Children should be properly superiously affected by it and the highest mortality rate from the disease is recorded for this age group. Children should be the moment of pneumonia, tuberculosis and diseases of the kidneys, eyes and ears. Parents should learn to recognize measles in its early stages, when infection is most easily sored to other children. Children may also him from the other children of the family and community and call a doctor. A mild case of measles "one home may mean a death in the next week" on men or women. The sick child in bed as long as, there is fever or cough. —The Pathfinder. Bow-Bow-Bowlegs Bow-legged persons need no longer be ashamed of their misshapen nether extremities. Dr. Jocef J. Interland has come to their rescue by declaring how bowlegs are an undeniable indication of robust health and alert mentality. Women and Their "Greater Freedom" Speaking on the "Social Significance of the New Freedom women" at the annual luncheon of the Women's Cooperative Civile League in Baltimore, Saturday, Miss Anna P. Broadnax, president of the Delaware Federation of Women's Club declared that the only fundamental change in the so-cule, "maternal instinct" and love of the modern mother was that which has changed it from a selfish interest in her own children to that of an unselfish interest in all children of the community. Commenting to Miss Broadnax, the old idea of the home chancery by four walls, is also, obsolete, the woman's interest now follows her husband's to the far reaches of the community. She is going to make a home of the community. Commenting on the fear that the modern woman would lose her maternal love in the new freedom, she made that way, "the women are still made that way." Having thus brushed aside any doubts that "mere man" might have had that, womankind, with her womankind, freedom, was going to keep right on her earth with children, Miss Broadnax also answered the question as to what they are going to do with their added leisure. She says mothers have their way" she says, "speakases, slumps, disase and crime will he be hammed from the face of the earth. There would be plenty of play, and work for erase. Here is certainly an ambiguous program and one which if carried out should certainly give women the right to exercise along with men the right to exercise she desires. Speaking particularly of "speakasieses," most men who have been grappling with this monster prohibition problem which they can "point with pride" will say "Go to it, ladies." A Boomerang Strikes Again Solving Segregation At the Capital A close observer of affairs in Washington tells us that segregation is being slowly solved at the Nation's Capital, but by a process of letting out colored employees. It would certainly be a stroke of irony if it works out that way. There are those who believe job losses than the principle involved, but it is certainly debatable whether we have gone enough in education to government service to endanger success along this line by the more spectacular fight over wash rooms and eating places, as is that case. At least the same war to abolish segregation should again be declared against any effort to the number of jobs held by the Perhaps an economic program worked out on a nation wide scale which would make a more definite distribution of positions as a first working of the Civil Service machine and appeal to President Hoover. Such a program based on a careful study by experts is not a number which should be employed in the various departments and which would set an example for others would be far more practical and effective than a few big appointment or appropriations for this or that.

Murphy And Mrs. Mary E. Rodman Have Taught In Each Building And Headed Two. By LILLIAN M WATTY School No. 112 Calhoun and Laurens streets, will celebrate its fortieth anniversary this year, tracing its growth from School No. 9, now 111, with the asst. tief and opened in 1889 with the first school in the public schools of Baltimore. In September, 1889, a new school building at the corner of Carrollton Ridge avenues, was occupied by colored faculty in the public schools of Baltimore. Jearr Biddle headed the boys' department, assisted by Garrison D. Trusty, Roberta B. Sherlain D. M. Truett, Roberta B. Sherlain Ellen L. Anderson, now deceased, Miss Mary E. Tavlo later Mrs. M. E. Rodman, and Mrs. Mary J. Camper. Miss Fannie L. Barbour headed the girls' department, Nannie B. Groom Gentrue Deaver, deceased, Violet B. Thompson, now Mrs. W. A. Warfield, and Fannie D. McCabe, later Mrs. Waring, now deceased, as assistants. The girls schools distinctly divided even when in the same building. No Hi Grades Public education for colored children in Baltimore had been in existence about thirty years at this time. The first school he began no high school graduates, hence no colored teachers. The first graduating class of the colored high school, came out in June, 1889, making him the first student for the session beginning in September. This graduating class constituted the first faculty of this school. L. Barbour, who had been teaching in Catonsville and was appointed as principal after successfully passing the teachers examination, moved to Baltimore. In a few years the increased enrollment and the fact that the school was located in an all-white neighborhood led to the building of a school for colored children and School street; int' whie the children from the first No. 9 moved in September, 1897. The building on white children who kept it until December 11, 1923, when increased enrollment and shifts of population caused it to be given back to relieve the school and 104 which were over-crowded. It is interesting to note that in the meantime School No. 99, later called No. 112, had moved fr. Carey and School streets to a new building erected at the corner of 199 with its principal, George B. Murphy, who was at one time also a teacher in the original building, Sep. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" Is Most Widely Read Book Next to the Bible the most widely translated book in the history of literature is "Uclep Tom's Cabin," say experts. The famous novel by Harriet Beecher Stowe has been printed in twenty-seven languages in addition to nine dialects of the East Indian and Polynesian natives. It has appeared in drama form on the stages of practically every civilized nation and it is regarded by the rest of the world as a page of the epic history of America. Americans, it would seem strange to hear the nonsensicalities of Topsy, the brutal outbursts of Simon Legree and the devout pieties of Uncle Tom spoken in Swedish or German. The play is taken most seriously without a thought of the incongruities attended thereon. As a matter of fact, according to Harry Pollard, who directed Uncle Tom's story, which comes to the Regent theatre, there is no one, who is able to read, who has not delved into the novel and suffered with Little Eva, laughed at Topsy, sympathized with Tom, grieved at Peg and pitted poor Uncle Tom. The picture has been made on a lavish scale. On its completion it had been in production two years earlier and sold for $100,000 dollars. World-wide interest is being manifested in "Uncle Tom's Cabin," as a photoplay and it is being heralded far wide and as one of the most pretentious super-films ever made by Uni- IN D. C.

One other member of the faculty who later became a principal was Miss Nannale B. Grooms, who became the principal of the Female School. One other member of the faculty who later became a principal was Miss Nannale B. Grooms, who became the principal of the Female School. Total salaries of the male division amounted to $3,328 and of the female division to $3,232. The total principal's salary today. The first year of the school there was an enrollment of 321 girls and 330 boys, or a total of 651 pupils. The present enrollment of this school is 600 pupils. The principal problem confronting the first group of teachers was a lack of confidence on the part of many patrons. The success of the race teachers. There had been many splendid teachers of the other race who had worked in the various schools with years of experience and to some extent with the prejudice against the untried group. This was accomplished in part by the closer contact established between the home and school upon the taxation system. These teachers saw a need for some social work, such as providing shoes and suitable clothing in n.a.' cases so that the pupils might be able to attend school. In this manner, we won the confidence of their patrons. Today this school is headed by George Summer Whyle as principal, and has a total of 16 teachers including Mr. Jackson, Ethel Waters, M. Inez Wicks, and Ethel Caution as departmental teachers in the intermediate grades; Mrs. Estelle W. Lee, Mrs. Dorothy B. Jackson, Mrs. Amelia E. Jones, Misses Ruby B.

By FLOSSIE SAWYER Forty-seven years with the Pennsylvania Railroad on duty at Union Station, and never late is a record that few men have made. Highly commended by railroad officials and sent a "Roll of Honor" certificate of retirement, from the president of the Pennsylvania Railroad. This is the record of Peter Bell a retired red cap.

He was hanging on the wall of his nest and pretty home at 555 Bloom street is a letter. It was framed by the pastor of his church and reads as follows: * Upon the Pennsylvania Railroad, Eastern Region, Baltimore Division, Baltimore, Md., Dec., 31, 1927.* * Mr. Peter Peltz, Ballimore, Md.* * Den Sirt, the occasion of your retirement from active service, effective January 28, 1928.* * The occasion of the zeal and loyalty displayed by you during your long term of service with the company that the institute desired for you to reure.* * We congratulate you upon your record of duty faithfully and conciously performed in the attainment of a well-treated form from tell.* While you now enjoy the distinction of a place on the company's "Roll of Honor," When we look back on those dark and gloomy daws of the "eighties" in Baltimore, and remember, and remember since passed to their homes beyond this world, we ought to feel proud to keep in memory those same ones who worked heart and soul for the betterment of us. I dare say, there are some of our present day teachers who have never heard of this faithful handful of men who awe the world for their generation of our race. They formed the Mutual Brotherhood of Liberty. It was formed by the late Rev. J. C. Allen, pastor, first Baptist Church; Macedonia Baptist Church; the Rev. Ananias Brown, pastor, Leadenhall Baptist Church; the Rev. P. H. A. Braxton, pastor, Calvary Baptist Church; Harvey Johnson church, Union Baptist Church and the Rev. Wm. M. Alexander, pastor, Patterson Avenue now called Sharon Baptist Church. These men met at the home of Harvey Johns m., 1000 N. 4th St. to open an office of $100 was raised to open an office on Saratoga street.

Henry J. Henry Solmond Moore. Lachlan Gibson and L. Jerome Wilson, the last-named the father of Mrs. Alice Wilson Chambers, who is teaching in one of that number still alive. In those days the colored man did not have any show in the community, but he was the direction of whites. Little do we realize now at this present time, as we ride in fine anties and live on big roads in the leaders toiled and worked hard and incessantly to bring about those glorious opportunities now being enjoyed by the race. But we Democrat, who had an interest in the race—the late F. C. Latrobe, at that time—moved more. Among the men of the man of the late Bishop Wyman and John H.

It had a faculty of twelve teachers; the boys being George and Miss George; the girls being Barbara in charge of the girls; and who is at this time teaching in the high school. It was quite a novelty to see in the more men-oriented race teaching in a public school. There was a lot of prejudice shown the colored teachers at first, several at parents' schools, and their children colored teachers.

In that section of Northwest Baltimore there were no schools closer than Biddle street on the left; and Waeche street, on the right; and Biddle street school, No. 7, and was in the fourth grade during the opening of No. 9 on Carrollton avenue. So during the year of 1890, all the boys and girls had to go down to the new grammar school and high school on Saratoga street, to take their examinations and a motion to the board. The boys had to pass to the fifth grade came from the Biddle street, Barre street, Waeche street, and Montmorency street schools; also from No. 9, Carrollton and Riggs ave- A school for colored, or rather one taken over from an Enlish and German man school, white, on Fremont avenue and King Street, was used for the fiftieth and sixtieth years. It was the Annex Grammar School No. 3. The mulets that came from the schools taught by white teachers were sadly disappointed, because we expected the bows and arrows to be used for students but some of them actually led their classes. Well, thanks to our dear old friends of the race that have reaped their reward in the Land Beyond; and these forty rows of colored teachers have been quite a help to the race.

Common senses tell us that our bodies which are complex mechanisms need expert attention when out of control. We are often trapped from only one source, namely, from those qualified by training and experience — the physicians. "If you are taken sick, I would suggest the following. 1. Do not procrastinate with physician prompt. Do not procrastinate when your better judgment tells you that you are sick enough for a doctor. 2. Do not go to an unlicensed practitioner. Do not use a machine to trust to the judgment of an untrained person. 3. Do not try to doctor yourself. Your position as well as your lack of knowledge makes you a bad 4. Do not try to fight off illness. It is a false impression to think that you will be able to help when exercising. Exercise is good for the well, robust person but is a great harm to the sick. Your heart will hurt when your body is at rest horizontally. This is particularly true of fevers. 5. Be able to physician and stick to him. By calling one physician repeatedly as a regular physician you have the help of your general health, your resistance to infection, and your habits of living. If you call a different physician each illness, you help you as much as a regular physician."

I would be more charitable in my thoughts, Sloane had at his command thousands of dollars and the opportunity to pick the world's best authors, composers and artists to share the old tradition that the American public still wants to see our people singing in the cotton fields and dancing.

Question Who Will Meet Ra Exaggerated Portrayal Of C York May Offend Cultu Question Whether 'Harlem' Philadelphia Will Meet Race Approval Mirror Exaggerated Portrayal Of One Phase Of Life In New York May Offend Cultured And Racketeers Also NEW YORK (Special). — While the May Day festival well received by white critics and audiences at the Apollo Theatre, here, its most severe critics are expected to come from race residents of Harlem, according to the show. West Indians in New York might not object to being caricatured in such exaggerated form, one of the actors said: "Let me tell you that the West Indians in Harlem, and there are plenty of them, won't warn about the show." It has been felt by some more sober thinkers, that the play is "showing up" in too bold relief just one phase of life in Harlan that objections will come from not only the cultured group but from the group of racketeers which the play is said to expose. Justification in presenting the play is given by some of the actors who point out that "almost all of the white shows are about bootleggers and groupers." Bud Allen, who plays the role of a "hot-stuff" man, relates that one of the best-known men in this racketeer play was "Giving away" Harlem business.

"Those West Indians can't even speak American. When they talk they misplace their words. When they get on a phone they say 'Hello, I'm a Brit.' When they get on another one over by Blyrside drive, and they tell the 'operation' to 'hold the rope' for them. That's how much they know."

Strange to say, but the truth nevertheless, these actors' pictures used as being members of the theaters, the physiques and beautiful faces, but those personages seen on the stage often happens to the disappointment of patrons. The displays are generally of an inviting nature, and in many instances the theaters are the physiques and beautiful faces, but those personages seen on the stage often possess everything but these qualities. There can be more pictures appear in the lobby, but do not show the show, and the management has not had sufficient time to have photographs made of the newcomers. Then there is another side to the picture where pictures misrepresent the personnel of he cast, they are folk who are easy on the eye, and in many cases well-known and success- This practice should be discontinued whatever the cause for its vogue, as it is not only misleading for patients who pay their money, but if will also cause these same people to lose confidence in the management of the theatres guilty of this practice.

From the trip she absorbed a wealth of atmosphere and information that made her a master of writing of the source of material in her book. Miss Ferber says: Lafayette "Hawk's Nest"; "Driftwood"; "Show People." Milton Sills, character film player, will play the stellar role in "Hawk's Nest," which will come to the Lafayette Monday, while "Driftwood," with an all star cast will be the special attraction Tuesday. Since most of Sills play in such features as the "Sea Tiger," and other notable films, they will not be disappointed in this picture. "Show People," with Marion Davies and William Haimen, playing the Lafayette screen Wednesday. In this story, the truth of the folk who entertain on the screen and behind the footlights will be shown and the audience a chance to see what they put out some of the show folk, after the player's work is done.

"Hell船 Bronson," will be tough character, be much appreciated since Beery will play the part.

Every member of the company has an opportunity to play, but all, nevertheless, work as one co-ordinated unit. In the soubret role is Baby Manders, who was well received in the singing Felton mixed dancing team, exhibited a mastery of a number of pleasing steps and Enixe Washington radiated personality that was com- The team of Watts and Ringgold stopped the show with their comedy, and you can take it from us, that Muriel Ringgold, now over 40, old, and a younger actor now on the boards. The heavy voice of Watts, an old stage favorite, boomed and resounded about the theatre with melody, and then to top his performance, and then that was a big hit.

PREJUDICE RULES IN CIVIL SERVICE BUREAU New President Could End It Immediately If He Were So Minded. WASHINGTON, D.C. President Herbert Hoover faces several delicate situations particularly affecting the Negro with which he will have to deal during his term of office. They include discrimination in the civil service, segregation in the Government departments, appointments to office, and the lily-white fight in the South. If Oscar DePriest, Representative-elect from the first congressional district of Illinois, should be seated, President Hoover will also have a social problem. As a member of Congress, he will be entitled to receive invitations to White House affairs including receptions, breakfasts and dinners. Delegations Before he will have been in office very long, President Hoover will be beset by delegations who will be exec- The rules and regulations of the United States Civil Service Commission have made it difficult for a colored person to get an appointment in vacancy in a jim-crow bureau. The requirement of photographs with applications is believed to be the primary cause. But William C. Dening, the president of the Commission, outed that if the photograph requirement were done away with, it would not stop discrimination against the appointment of colored persons in the civil service. The Civil Service Commission submits to appointing officers the names of three eligibles from which to make a selection. Appointing officers may be selected by an internal inspection before appointment to office. The list of eligibles may be returned twice with requests for new certifications. From the third list a selection must be made. The selection is only probationary and at the end of six months, an appointee may be dismissed. It is these rules which permit discrimination against colored persons (Continued on page sixteen) $85,000 WILLED 3 INSTITUTIONS PHILA. — Among the institutions named as beneficiaries in the will of the late Miss Marv A.

THEAFROAMERICAN Delegations Declare Owner Of Local Ball Team Withdrew $15,000/ Offer Made Them Assertion that the proposed sale of the Black Sox baseball club by George Rossiter, controlling stockholder, to a group of local business men, has been at least temporarily halted because of the club owner's refusal to live up to the terms stipulated by him, was made this week to the AFRO-AMERICAN. The group of business and professional men included Dr. Joseph Thomas, of Sparrows Point; Dr. J. G. McRae, Dr. George Hall, Randolph Waters, and Edward Wilson of Morgan College. An offer had been made, it is understood, to sell the The group retained the services of Councilman Warner T. McGuinn as counsel and after his investigation of the proposal, they are said to have been unable to complete the deal. Here the Black Sox mogul is reported to have countered with a proposal for a strictly cash settlement, refusing to accept a substantial payoff him. The business men found that the park that is used by the Black Sox is leased on a strict, one-year basis by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad for a sum of $2400. Feeling that even with this additional cost, the proposition was worthwhile, they acceded to Mr. Rosser's request that they make the transactance case for the lawyer Falls to Appear. An appointment was made at which time the attorney representing Mr. Rosser would be present to discuss the final details with them. The meeting arrived, it is said that no lawyer appeared. The local men assert that when this deal was not completed Mr. Rosser would be taken in as a partner, but the group would not agree to this. Rossiter Dentes Deal In a special statement to the AFOB-11, Mr. Rossiter made an emphatic denial that he had come to any definite terms with the prospective buyers. "It is true that I have talked with them on the prospect of buying them, but offered them an actual sales figure. I did give an estimate of what I thought would be a good price for the club, but under the present conditions I cannot see my way clear to sell them to the club. The Black Sox owner pointed out further that he has been making plans to improve the club for the 1989 season, and been signed, he *reported*. Among this group is "Pud" Flournoy, of the Brooklyn Royals: Robert Fitzhugh, left handed bishop of Warrenton, a. Thomas, N.C.; and Tucker, third baseman, and Williams, second baseman of the Johnson C. Smith College baseball team. Mr. Rossiter intimated that there would be some change before the beginning of the season. Asked if he intended to make any improvements in the park this year he replied: "I am not sure and painters at work within a week or two. My plan is to build a platform along the right line and paint it with accommodations for a much larger number of people. I hope also to remedy the dress box situation so that newspapermen will be able to games from a 'tier vantage point'. KITTRELL TRUSTEES MEET WASHINGTON, D.

Would Jim Crow DePriest In House Office Building Dixie Congressman Lets Cat Out Of Bag In Congressional Debate Debate WASHINGTON — Congressman Bob Dole, House Secretary a plan to jim crow Oscar DePriest, colored Congressman- sman in Chicago in the House Of- Building. The House was discussing the bill to erect a $500,000 memorial in honor of the Negro in Washington. Mr. Busby accused the publicists of the Negro's friendship of the Negro when they were not. Said he. Certain Office "In the House Office Building I had in mind to file on a certain office. I was led to believe that that office was to be reserved for certain other purposes. "I found our liaiser that it was preempted by DePriest in that office, although I have served six years in Congress. "I was being misled in order that this Negro might be preferred over me and I said, 'I am entitled to this office over this Negro, and I am going to have it.'" "So in order to isolate him and put him off in one corner, as you contended, you wanted him located there in one of the best offices, and I wanted to file on and was entitled to." "This is the real situation, and I am not varnishing the facts." Social Equality Busby said. "When I and you inviting the colored race into your homes, to associate with your wives and your daughters, and when you encourage the colored people to call on and keep you in touch, you will realize that you have reached that sentiment that you have expressed to them about election times. "No, you have not practiced it. It is not words to get their support, and this gesture here is only to encourage them to believe you are their friend, when they know that you are not and that the southern people are their people, and in the only proper relation that can exist between the black and white races." Republicans Come To Him Busby declared that Republican members should "Why you fellows down South have not to save us from this situa- tion," referring to the fact that the Negroes were getting so strong in Chicago and other parts of the north that they were putting whites out of Congress. "I said, 'What situation?' "Save Yourselves" "They replied: 'These Negro congressmen we are getting in over here.' "And I said, Save yourselves. You have been fishing for them all the while and getting nibbles, now take care of them, catch them; take care of yourselves." Mr. DePriest attended the Republican caucus Saturday afternoon at the convention and may recently be spoken to Longworth and other members of the House.

PARIS, France, (Special) —Estrangement is reported between Countee Cullen, poet, and his wife, Nina Yolande DuBois, Baltimore school teacher, wed last Easter, and spending a year in Paris, where Cullen is studying on a Guggenheim fellowship. If true, the "Mid Summer Night's Dust" waltz played at the wedding has become a real mid-winter night-marche. Dr. W. B. E. DuBois of New York, father of the young wife, declares the report is without basis. The waltz being in separate hotels, Cullen is paying almony, and contemplating a divorce which in Paris courts costs about $300. Dr. Buios, mother of the young wife, Cullen is paying almony. She may bring about a reconciliation. The wife and husband appear friendly in public. They often meet me in the street, and I colored folk, but they do not live together. Mr. Cullen occupies his flat by himself. His wife has moved, and she is now the planned divorce. Both are "only children" of their respective parents and are "spoiled." The father of the poet, pastor of Salem M. E. Church, New York, is reported "upset." Mrs. Cullen may soon leave Paris for home after the divorce, should one be granted. Cullen will remain and another. The poet is quoted as saying he has only the highest regard for his wife who is 25, one year his senior, but they simply cannot get along together. Countee is said to have a girl in the U. S. A. whom he really loves. Wedding Spectacular The Cullen wedding was one of the most spectacular New York has ever been.

Girls Darby Phantoms Lose First of Series Games DARBY, Pa. — In a game that was replete with excitement and thrills the Darby Phantoms dropped a hard fought battle Thursday, to the local Darby game floor. The game was scheduled as a local championship tiff, but after witnessing the contest and the number of fans that it attracted, the rival managers decided to play the game and the next tilt goes to the Phantoms' floor at Wissickhon Boys Club in Germantown. What decided the margin of victory for the winners was the ability of the fire throws from penalty mark. In the second half, Jones, the lanky center of the Heights team made good runs and ten of the twenty-two points scored by the home team in the half were registered, evenly divided in field goals, each club garnering an even dozen. Eddie Bice, the Spoons leader, and Seth Brown and Johnny Burgin horned in with some clever passing and floor work. Baltimore Five Victors In Two Foreign Games PRINCETON, N.

The Johnson C. Smith aggregation started after a few minutes of play, and it was this fact that greatly detracted from the game. The Lincoln team really played rings around the Lions outplayed, outpassed, and outshot the Taylor combination. Coach Wails of the Lions used his own teammates to part of the fratries and Smith could not hold them. Jones, the stalwart center of the Smith, was really the only one of this southern aggregation team that was showing, for he made eleven of the twenty-three points. In contrast to this Avery, of Lincoln, made six of the twenty-two points of the Lions. T. O. L. BASEBALL LOOP WILL OPEN APRIL 27 T. O. L.

Hello Pansy Old Dear- This week was quite well filled with visitors on routes home from the Inauguration and the inauguration of the inclement weather did not prevent a visit to theimoreans motoring over there to witness the exercises and sights of the great Capitol, and the inclement weather had a bid to listen to one some friends house, found it more pleasant at home keeping dry and comfortable and getting ready to finish, than really being there, and being pushed in the crowds, hearing nothing hardly, and seeing only what was in front of them, and having to have on us though, was the many social affairs that Washington Elites took great pains to spring for this occasion, which was to be until the end of the week. The Bacchier Benedict Club dance was about the largest and most brilliant affair of all. Quite over especially for that, which was given at the Colonnade. Among the glimpse of witnessing the parade were, Dr. and Mrs. Bacchier, Mrs. Bond: The Abbie Hawkins, Truly Hatchen and his wife: Mrs. Wright and doctor: Josiah Henry all alone; too: Jennette Moore, Plossie White and James P. Buchanan. But, girlie, quite the most interesting news this week reaching us from across the ocean is that of Dr. and Mrs. William F. Nobles. They left here quite over a year ago, the doctor taking special work in Edinburgh. They are traveling now in France, and Italy, and are expected back to this country some time in the early spring. They will reside of course at their residence on Carrollton avenues. Mrs. Nobles, naturally well have lots of interest us women folks, of the fashions, customs and homes of the different nationalities. But, Pansy, just listen at this: Now isn't this the best of news—Our darling Iradele Williams has a dear little baby girl. Yes, truly, it was born Wednesday morning. Gee, I don't think that any member of the family has left her side since the baby arrived—and Daddy Nelson—his meals are brought up to him. So tickled are they all, over the arrival, and, too, that mother and baby are doing well, that they won't leave either of them. But goodness! this isn't telling you about how surprised and delighted Mother Shipley was over the surprise her son and daughter-in-law put over on her on her birthday on last Friday. Mrs. Shipley's Birthday Surprise The Shipley family, Pansy, are old and prominent, Baltimore means, known, really everywhere. Emma McCoy, Carrie Garing, Holland, Lee and Chazley, you know, are mother and lives with her son, Charley, on Madison avenue. He is just devoted to her and can't do enough for her. She and Ruth put their heads together and decided on a surprise party in honor of her. Mrs. Shipley, hadn't even, given that event. ful day a thought and was really provoked when they went up stairs and asked her for table linens which she thought they were too small to extend to examine deciding to come down to see what it was all about. She was met at the bottom of the stairs by her son and daughter-in-law with a most gorgeous bouquet of flowers. She got back her bearing, she was escorted by them to the dining room to an even greater surprise when she was met by her children and a number of her friends and acquaintances. The loving of the host and hostess, the honored guest and the rest of the party were invited to the living room, where games of cards were enjoyed. Yes, really. Mrs. Shilp, her mother, her sister and others she is considered a good player, She was laden with numerous bouquets of flowers and useful gifts.

On Monday evening she even went beyond the rules of the club and entertained most elaborately the W.W. Bridge Club and number of friends who were hand-painted by Pendleton Parrott, Lillian's husband, you know, and were perfectly beautiful. The table confectioneries were most unusual and so much enjoyment menu was in keeping with what that woman said. The three card prizes that went to Norma Marshall, Jellie Hall and Lillian Parrott, were uneile and useful.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, MARCH 9, 1929 MARIE PARIS——Countee Cullen, poet, and his wife, Yolande DuBols-Cullen who are reported estranged in Paris after a marriage of less than a year. Business Man And Popular Girl Marry In New Bedford CULLEN LOVE COLD CULLEN LOVE COLD Continued From Page Eleven lingered here. Then as school was about to open in September, she suddenly saluted for Paris without securing a leave of absence. Subsequently the School Board granted Mrs. Cullen, leave for a year without pay. This expires next September, and there is no guarantee that her old post will be oper when she returns. Mr. Cullen has written two volumes of poetry and many other poems as yet uncollected. "Color," the first volume, printed in 1925, dwelt with a variety of subjects, waiters, wine, race problem, philosophy and religion. "Copper Sun," the second volume, printed in 1927, the period of his courtship, is full of poems dealing with the disappointed in love. In one recent poem, "En Passant," Cullen writes: "I tell you love is like the dew. That trembles on the grass. You'd not believe men, speaking true. That love is wormwood, lass You love me for the liar I am; I love the minx you are: "Tis heaven we must bless or damn, That shaped us on a par." Was Love Absent? Word of the Cullen's estrangement will not occasion surprise in Atlantic City or Baltimore. Mrs. Cullen and her husband rode in separate autos on their Atlantic City honeymoon, while friends gasped in amazement. Mrs. Cullen had a ten-day leave of absence, but was back in Baltimore alone, her honeymoon finished, before she gave up. Some friends of the Cullens declared they married more to please their parents than to please themselves.

This Year To Be Devoted To Industrial And Business Expansion. The third annual report of the Baltimore Urban League, made by its secretary, R. Maurice Moss, at the annual meeting of the Executive Board shows this agency to have become the clearing house for practically all outstanding civic and welfare movements among the group. The following statement describes the purposes and activities of the league as taken from the secretary's report: The motto of the League is "Not Alms, but Opportunity." With its people who work, not as white people nor as colored people for the narrow benefit of any group alone, but together as community citizens of city and the common country in which we live. Chief among our problems is that of the Negro's econo. c disability. From this root spring a need for poor housing, lack of recreational facilities, and other evils. During the past year, have attempted to begin work on our pledge to you here last January. Officers of the Urban League have taken up with officers of other organizations for working arrangements between the Association of Commerce and a Negro group which would bring to the colored people the opportunity to be maintained by enlarged industrial opportunities. Acting on our suggestion Mr. Claute, executive secretary of the Association, has seized control of Commerce secretaries throughout the country in cities in which there is a large Negro population. A program for Baltimore is being worked on to feature features of these various programs. With half a dozen exceptions none of the businesses conducted by Negroes in the city is stock, or corporal affairs, and all suffer from lack of capitalization and adequate financial backing. A campaign to teach colored people, many of whom have money laying around, to the promotion of business is an urgent matter. Several large Negro industrial concerns are operating throughout the county with plants in various cities, most of which are approximately 130,000 Negroes. Philadelphia, Washington, Pittsburgh, New York, Richmond. — all within a few hours by train from Baltimore contain more than one half million Negroes and a plant in Baltimore could meet. The same advantages which are cited to other manufacturers to attract them to Baltimore must necessarily be advantages which could be advanced to a firm owner operated by the firm, whom would benefit from boss and girls. Any facility which Baltimore has which makes it a favorable location for business would operate regardless of the color of the owner of the business. Baltimore can ill afford to have its more educated and educated men get deserved while only the untrained and successful, inconsequential ones remain. Recreation A second of our major problems in Baltimore is the lack of proper recreational facilities. Recreational and leisure activities in the city are very limited. The East and South Baltimore sections particularly being in need of facilities. Seeking to improve this situation the League made a preliminary study of the recreational facilities, public facilities, the city office, and available to Negroes, Comparable information from St. Louis, Detroit, and Cincinnati was secured and placed in the hands of the members of the League. The committee then met with the officials of the Playground Athletic League to consider the possibilities for enlargement of the present system. It was decided to invite the members of the bureau of coloured work, of the Playground and Recreation Association of America, to spend sometime in Baltimore to make a study of the situation and, in the light of this experience, to form a Urban League and the Playground Athletic League issued a joint invitation to Mr. Attwell whose services were loaned for a week by his organization. Until this past October, Maryland had never had a recognized troop of Colored Boy Scouts. We feel that the advantages of this environment are the Baltimore boys. To that end we arranged for conferences and aided in setting up work for colored boys with the aid of the Director of Interracial Activities for the Boy Scouts of America from Chattanooga. Penn, and the Sharp Street Community House, the city-wide colored committee, and worked out plans for the formation of three troops. The first troop was registered in October and has not regularly each Friday since that Other Activl: Other activities sponsored, or shared in, by the League are now touched upon. Cooperation with the Family Welfare Association the League conducts a Colored Case Work Conference. Before this group, which meets in the office of the League twice a week, the League diffuses colored cases which the Family Welfare Association is called upon to handle in its various districts of the city. The conference is an averaged event, an average of the largest of such groups in the city. Through our office, arrangements were made for a joint meeting of the Board of Directors more with those of Washington, D. C. This meeting was held in April. The Board of Directors were held for an annual get-together of this nature to discuss problems relating particularly to colored work and in the District of Columbia. departments toward Negro trade. Plans for changing, or meeting, this attitude were discussed and placed in the hands of a committee for further thought and action. Through this office educational activities were conducted by the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, was conducted for the entire $Cate of Maryland. Several thousand colored school children were enrolled in the first week of the month of May, through cooperation on the part of the members of this fraternity and the school boards. Urban League was represented at the National Conference of Social Work in Membership by its executive who is one of the members of the committee on Community and Life. At the request of the National office of the Urban League, the local executive spent the last week in May in Grand Rapids, Michigan, making a commitment to meet the needs of people of the community with the idea of recommending a constructive program for their social welfare. The first week in June was spent in Lansing, Michigan, where the city has already decided to institute a program along the lines of the Urban League for its Negro inhabitants. A group in the other city is to meet a coming month to consider similar plans. At the request of the Florence Crittenton Circle, the Urban League called a conference of the social community to a county-munity believed to be interested in the colored dependent mother and child. This conference, held in the county, was attended by nearly a half hundred of both races, eighteen different social agencies being represented by their members. The committee has been appointed to meet with the officials of the Florence Crittenton Circle and to confer with other: looking toward the setting up of a work for this socially dependent group. A subsequent conference of colored women together with Miss Marie Judge was arrange: Miss Judge is the chair of the committee considering the whole problem of the homeless women in the city. Through the office of the Urban League an Inter-fraternity-sorority committee was formed of theives of the nine colle' fraternities and sororities which have local chapters, has been formed. This committee aided in the entertainment of the National Medical Association which met in this city in August. Mayor's Commission Information concerning the unemployment situation as it affects Negroes was furnished to the Mayor's Unemployment Commission both by government Board who were also members of the Mayor's Commission and through Dr. Robinson Newcomb, who was employed by this commission to make a study of the situation. Through cooperation local community interested things were accomplished during the year. First, one of the papers was furnished with an exclusive story in connection with the activities of the Federation of Colored Churches according to be establishing a home for the aged, a home for the orphans and an industrial school for be- and girls. This Federation was investigated by the League and the pitiless publicity method was used to drive this pseudo-enable organization out of existence. In the second case, the other colored newspaper was furnished with the story concerning the attempt to bar colored athletes from the South Atlantic Championship, and June 9. This matter was also taken up with the authorities at Hopkins, with the South Atlantic Championships Committee and with the National A. A. U. headquarters in New York City. After much passing of time, the bars were finally left down and Negro athletes were allowed to compete for the first time in the South Atlantic Championships. The secretary of the League was invited to serve as one of the committees in the Baltimore Marathon and Olympic Tryout. Marathon Under a new arrangement in record to Health Week the Urban League assumed complete charity of the school with one hundred boys, representing 18 schools and clubs entered this race, 76 actually started and 74 of them finished. Prizes for the race were given to the share of whose trade is colored. It is estimated by the Police Department that 5000 people saw their ace somewhere along the course of 3-1-2 miles. The Urban League Office served as the Headquarters of District 5 in the campaign of the Community Fund, the quorum of which went higher than in 1927 but for the second successive year District 5 went "over the top." No report of the Baltimore Urban League failed to make note of the very great loss we suffered by the death of our late lamented president, Mr. John E. Carv. The loss of his sympathetic, intelligent, and leadership leader with whom he fell in more than one trying circumstance. Coroner Frees Driver Jack Lewis. 27.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, MARCH 9, 1929 Returning with a surprise Miss Anita Thompson, former Ballimore art teacher, who has written Mrs. Edith Harris. 2012 Druid Hill avenue, that she is returning to the states from Paris, France, where she has been pursuing courses in art, "I am bringing a big surprise to the whole family." she writes. Reports are current that Miss Thompson has become the bride of young Roscoe Conkling Bruce Jr. His father, who is the resident manager of the Paul Laurence Dunbar Apartments, however, wired th the AFRO-AMERICAN, "If there is any such report, it is absolutely and entirely untrue." African Mothers Tell Kiddies White Men Are Boogies Savage Tribe Thinks Whites Are Giants With One Eye One Leg and Eat Human Flesh What do African tribes think of whites they have never seen? This question is answered by Bata Lobagola, kidnapped and carried to Europe on board a steamer in 1896 at the age of eleven. Lobagola is of a tribe of black Jews whose history goes back to the con- struction of the temple of Jerusalem eighteen centuries ago. At that time Jews fled to Morocco across the desert from place to place until finally they settled in Ondo Bush, where there are two thousand of them today entirely black, living in twenty villages carrying on anci- ent Jewish custom. Lobagola's story is told in the March issue of Scribner's magazine. He says, "When I was about four years old of white people. SENATE LAUGHS Continued From Page Eleven been held up as one of their bitter- est enemies, notwithstanding the fact that when I was governor of my state I picked a picture of them than any other governor we have ever had all put to- ogether. Menial Tasks "The bootstrap shop belongs to the colored man. The baker shop belongs to the colored man. The shoveler's job belongs in certain respects to the colored man. "What are you northern people going to do with the colored man? Thank God he is leaving us and coming to you. The more he comes the better we like it." "All I could ever hear my mother say was that if white men should come across us they would eat us raw. They said whites only fed themselves a year and ate if they ate it if they did if they could eat the young of other people. They liked children's flesh better than they did grown people. "My mother said that white people came as witches, from no one knew where, but just appeared and disappeared. They were very scary, and even the two men, because every white man had only one of everything: one eye, in the middle of his forehead, one leg, with a great wide foot, fan-shape, so that when he down the foot acted as a sunshade, "a white man had no visible nose and his mouth was large, and could be made much larger," and could lived on the bush, and could be in the bush just before and just after the rainy season." White Civilization What he thinks of the white civilization today, thirty-five years after he was captured and taken to Scotland and educated by a friendly white man. On the white man, who has meant so much to me in my life, and has cost me so much! "He has given me clothes and money, things that I never knew before; but he asked me to be white." I love my country. I love my people; but at the same time I am forced to hate my own customs the customs of my father. I am neither white nor black. I am a misfit in a white man's country, and a stranger in my own land." $500.000 MEMORIAL Continued From Page Eleven 000 in the proposition. Prejudices "Let it lay aside certain prejudices and race antagonism and this, in some small way recognize the valuable contribution that the colored people have made to our country and to the flag." Congressman Baldwin (Rep. Ky), Congressman Morton D. Hull, (Rep. Ill.), and Congressman Howard, (Dem. Okla.), also spoke in favor of the measure. stood 263 for the bill, eighty-five opposed and eighty-nine not voting. Among the congressmen who spoke against the bill were Rep. Ramsey (Dem. Mass.), and Rep. Dempa (Dem. Ga.) The bill passed in Senate in May, 1928. It provided for a commission of fifteen members *i* whom the director of the National Capital, the supervising architect of the Treasury and the Architect of the Capitol would be ex-officio members. The remaining twelve members would be appointed by the commission will be known as the National Memorial Commission. The duties of the commission will be to procure and determine upon a location, plans, and designs for a building, and to organize for meetings of patriotic organizations, public ceremonial events, the exhibition of art and inventions, and the placing of statues and tablets, in the city of Washington, as a tribute to the contribution to the achievements of America. The act makes available a sum of $50,000 to be available when the sum of $50,000 is made to the National Memorial Association, which $50,000 will defray the necessary for the expenses and maintenance of the commission and the cost of securing plans, designs, site, and construction of a memorial building provided in the act. SENATE LAUGHS Continued From Page Eleven been held up as one of their bitter enemies, notwithstanding the fact that when I was governor of my state I pardoned more of them than every other governor we have ever and all put together. Menial Tasks "The bootblack shop belongs to the colored man. The barber shop belongs to the colored man in certain respects. The shoveler's job belongs in certain respects to the colored man. What are you more interested in the colored man? Thank God he is leaving and coming to you. The more he comes the better we like it. Driven Out "You drive them out of every profession and business and then a man comes to you and says, 'Are you shaving down here at a certain Negro shop? If you don't quit shaving down there we will not vote for you.'" "Do you go over to a certain shoe-shining parlor run by colored people and have your shoes shined?" "Yes." "If you do not when then we will not vote for you." Foreign Element "In other lines of business and mental labor this foreign element is more important. I have no apologies for them. They are driving them out of the trades that God Almighty intended to make a living many of them are stealing and committing all kinds of crimes, when, if they were not allowed to do so, the investment, but allowed to hold their jobs that God Almighty intended for them to hold, they would be stealing, living and getting along all right." Serious Question "I warn you senators from states north of the Potomac River that this is a question you have got to settle. The South has settled it. It is getting to be a serious proposition for you, too. DoPRIest "In Illinois they have a serious situation—and you Republicans have it too. You have a serious proposition facing you when this Negro is brought in for March. You be sworn in on the 10th of March. Senate Laughs "As the senators laughed, Blease went on. "You may think it a laudable matter, but you will find it a very serious problem. Mr. Hoover has a serious problem in that matter too." Mr Hoover "He may say to old North Carolina and Virginia. I will turn out the Negroes in the North and white neons," but remember when he did it, that Pennsylvania has a few Negroes; Illinois has a few; Ohio has a few; Kentucky has a few; a few Negroes. West Virginia has a good many Negroes. "When he slams the Negro of the South in the North, he slams the Negro of those states in the face, then you will find it your problem and not the problem of the States of the American Union." Correct Evils Please would correct all these aliens by stopping the foreign pop- ulation from coming in. In his own state, he said, the Greeks have run white people out of the restaurant business.

BE SURE TO GET YOUR COPY OF THE AFRO Continued From Page Eleven President Hoover could issue an executive order changing them, substituting the finger-print method of identification for the photograph and making it obligatory upon appearing in the highest to appoin the person on the eligible list. Segregation In the Government departmentsegregation has continued through the Harding and Coolidge administrations despite continued attacks by various organizations and still exists, as asserted but it still exists in some of the departments. President Hoover is already familiar with this problem. As Secretary of Commerce it was brought to his attention. He abolished the breaking up a segregated division in the Census Bureau. Whether he is willing to direct his Cabinet officers and heads of independent establishments to take simlar action remains to be seen, but it certain that he will be asked to do so. Appointments Failure of Presidents Harding and Coolidge to appoint deserving colored Republicans to office in any appreciable number has irks him. For many persons holding statutory Federal offices which require confirmation by the Senate, President Hoover will be urged to increase this number by the appointees, which have not been filled by any member of the race before. Little Cabin:4 An effort will be made to get at least one place in the Little Cabinet composed of 10 men, the color fight will be mainly to get a colored man appointed as an assistant attorney general, a position one mile behind the attorney Robert L. Vann, of Pittsburgh, Pa. will probably have the support of the group headed by Dr. Emmett J. Scott and John R. Hawkward, a campaigner among colored voters. Haiti The ministership to Haiti is out of the question. The American occupation seems destined to continue indefinitely and instead of a minister to the United States, a Port-au-Price by General Russell, a white military officer, who has the title of "high commissioner." The State Department takes the position that as long as the American high commissioner remains in Haiti he will be the appointment of the minister. Register of Treasury The office of the Register of the Treasury also seems to be out the question. A vacancy recently occurred in the office, but President Obama said it before colored Republican leaders could submit their recommendations. Farm Loan Board There is talk of the appointment of a colored person as a member of the Federal Farm Loan Board. But there is no vacancy. W. H. C. Brown, the Republican campaign chairman, Samuel M. Dudley, financial secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, and Charles E. Hall, a statistician in the Census Bureau, named in connection with this board. Lily Whites As his party leader President Hoover will have to take part in the lily factions, he might be the right Socialist to decide whom the patronage in southern states will be given. If he should give it to the lily white factions, it will mean the end of the Negro as a political force, as far as party 'milot' is concerned. R. R. Church In the lily white rights thus far Robert E. Mumphis Teen. has been the only colored Republican to emerge victorious. Despite lily white opposition aided by northern Republican Senators, he succeeded in getting postmaster at Memphis by executive order and confirmed by the Senate. TRENTON SLAYER CAUGHT RALEIGH, N.

RATE WHO RULE By J. A. Rogers Rev. C. E. Queen Tells M. E. Preachers Adam's Fall Cut It Down To Low Status INAUGURAL ECHOES Speakers Comment On Monday's Ceremonies Man would like nine thousand years, or forever, but for the fall of Adam declared the Rev. C. E. Queen in a sermon at the M. E. ministers meeting at Sharp Street Church, Wednesday. The Rev. Queen's subject was the "Divine Execlition." "Adam in the fall of the Garden lost his perfect physical nature and as a consequence all men must die physically," the Rev. W. C. Currey informs, "formality, blindness, deafness, insanity, physical abnormality, is evidence of Adam's fall in the garden and his consequent physical death. "Adam in his fall" he said, "unassessed of universal knowledge, named every species of animal. He named every species of animal life," he said, "and in his fall all his knowledge was lost and is by nature man-made." "The divine expedition, the coming of Christ," he said, "was to restore this great loss humanity sustained in Adam's fall." The Rev. G. E. Currey commented on the inaugural parade. It was the most impressive he had witnessed, he said, and was absent of any racial discrimination as colored participants immersed throughout the columns. Congressman-elect DePriest The Rev. D. W. Hayes mentioned that the inaugural radio announcer referred to Congressman-elect DePriest as Congressman-as being on the reviewing stand. On recommendation of the executive committee, the ministers will be given an opportunity to tell what the committee is going to them in a round-table discussion. FIND MAGISTRATE EXCEEDED AUTHORITY Court Releases Garland Johnson On Habeas Corpus Proceedings Setting forth that the court had exceeded its authority in committing Garland Johnson of Correction for six months on a reckless driving charge, his attorney, Josiah Henry caused his release Friday on a writ of habeas corpus. Henry charged that in spite of the fact that the law provides for fines only in the first offense, Magistrate Walton sent the youth to prison.

March 7—The Good Samaritan figures in the 1929 "First Aid-Home Remedy Week" and is designated as the "First Aid Aid." This annual merchandising arrival with St. Mark's is timed to mark the sixth anniversary of the plan dedicated to Drugdom by Sterling Products, Incorporated, in 1922 and immediately sponsored by the National Association of Retail Druglists. Seeing the great advertising and marketing efforts of its behalf to humanity, the National Wholesale Druglists' Association has swung behind it with the enthusiastic suggestion that druglists use local newspapers, and providing them with suggestive copying led to National shops. "Fill That Medicine Chest!" Coming at a time when housewives are thinking of house cleaning, the command has added psychological sales value. Secretary Henry of the Army of Long Island says: "No one knows better than the average retail druggist how much needless suffering there is because most people are neglectful in the matter of making provision for the hour of neediness. Surely the hidden illness unforeseen accident calls for immediate attention." "Quick Relief Insurance" is the new definition of First Aid Home Remedy Week's objective, and is thus bringing the nation's "Health Service Stations" into closer everyday life. The "T" Defenders demonstrated their superiority over the Celtics by defeating them by the overwhelming score at the Community Saturday. The game was exceptionally rough, a total of 28 personal fouls being called by a winger of the winters, a point man with 20 points to his credit. LINE-UP OLITIO (28) DEFENDES (57) G. F. P. G. F. P.

Auditorium last Thursday night, she was cursed and called an unprintable name, by a north- western police officer. Miss Helen Mas Harrison, 227 N. Carey street, told the AFRO-AMERICAN. Miss Harrison, who is an usher at the Royal Theatre declared that she had entered a complaint with the department. Was Abusive The insult occurred, according to the young woman, when she reached the place and found it crowded and the officers prohibit others to enter. Having secured a ticket, she sald, she courteously offered officer if she might remain and go in when some one came out as she no longer people leaving from time to time. Without any provocation, she said the officer, who she learned was Officer Wolsak of the Northwest district, not only told her to get away now there, but he also called a name which characters only lewd women of the street. Immediately, she said, she went over to the station and reported the matter to Lieut. Rudd who after a superficial investigation, told her her complaint in writing, after she had pointed the officer out to her and placed her (Wolsak), came up to her and placed her under arrest, charging her with disorderly conduct. When a friend came over to post collateral, she says, he was also arrested on the same charge. At the station Frida morning the charges against Miss Harrison were dismissed. She has written a complaint to Commissioner Gather, she Police Profanity Complaints have been made that some policemen use profanity not only in dealing with citizens but in the presence of respectable people, and that out that it is as much an affrontriment of the law for police to use vile and profane language in public places as for any other citizen and that Commissioner Gaffer has definitely expressed his concern over the violation of the police rules.

Around About Baltimore By PROFESSOR FUDGE No Sleeves Word comes from New York that there is a general protest in that city against Baltimore girls who visit there and attend formal affairs. It appears that some particular ladies have been in the habit of going to these dances wearing dresses with sleeves in them. According to the vogue this is absolutely out of order and the New York girls are getting the pears wearing dresses be done about a situation. I am suggesting: The Baltimore girls that they either wear dresses with no sleeves in them when they go to formal affairs in New York or keep their coats on. Morgan Players The Morgan College players journeyed to New York several weeks ago and made quite a hit. It is to be noted also that they have been performing exceedingly well locally. "view of this local people are asking that the city as a whole give an opportunity to witness their talent." Slipping One Over The demise of "Text" Rickard seems to have stimulated a desire on the part of many people to get in the fight game now that the famous promoter is not on hand to control fights. The last two weeks all-litmore included at least four notable "battles." One was staged between two men, one between two women and two between husbands and wives. All of the "mills" were interesting and engaging and had it been something to do with arrangements could have been made for gate receipts. Gate receipts would have been in order in all but one case. In that case it would have been impossible because the action came off while both parties slept. The gentleman dreamed and a burglar entered his house, then he captured his wife, on the law, immediately after so doing he woke up and offered an apology. S. K. C. At any number of informal house dances, arranged in many cases to get the rent together, invitations are sent out. On these cards, the time, place admission and a description. At the fun to be held, the card usually appears, "Dancing until"; meaning until it is over whatever time that may be. Recently because of circumstances over which most of the people had no experience has been necessary to amend that last line. Instead of just having—dancing until—they now have—dancing until S.K.C.—meaning—Dancing until Sergeant Kochs comes. The Mansion House The question of the jim crow comfort stations is being taken by some local bastions. It appears this citation comes under the direct charge of Comptroller Walter Graham. The move is indeed a good one and the city councilman should be given due credit for giving information on the subject. However, while these matters are being taken it might be called the committee that the same committee might see His Honor. Mayor William T. Browning, and have him use his office to win out the him crow in the Mansion House in Druid Hill Park. LANVALE STREET Earl Bayne, 90 W.
