Dyer, (Rep., Mo.) Advocates Again Law to Halt Mobs. FIRST BILL IN 1922 House Passed Measure But Senate Has Balked. WASHINGTON, D.C. (CNS) — Representative Leonidas Dyer, (Rep. Mo) has re-introduced his bill to assure all persons within the jurisdiction of the United States of equal protection of the laws, and to punish the crime of lynching. According to the bill, a mob is three or more persons acting in concern without authority of law to do a person physical injury. State or municipal officers, if found guilty of failure to protect prisoners in their charge, would be liable under the bill to $5000 fine or five years' imprisonment. Such officers, if they aided the mob, could be punished amounting to less than five years. The U.S. district courts would have jurisdiction under the law wherever a state court appeared negligent in publishing members of mobs, where jurors in state courts are sympathetic to the mob members still at liberty thirty days after the crime. Forfeit $10,000 Any county in which a lynching occurs shall forfeit $10,000 to the United States for the use of the family, if any, of the persons lynchened. Where two or more counties are involved they are held jointly and severally liable for the $10,000 forfeitures lynched by U.S. mobs would also be protected by the Dyer bill if it is engaged. Bill Is Same The bill is the same as that introduced by Rep. Dyer and Senator Robert Dyer. The Senate rejected it in May, 1928. The first Dyer bill passed the House in 1928 and has been reintroduced by Dyer in each succeeding Congress. In April, 1928 and 1928, Rep. Victor (Socialist, Wis.) introduced a bill, which the house has ignored. Mr. Berger's bill set the fine for negligent state or city officials at and imprisonment at ten years.

COLON, Panama. — The Panama Triune reports that Robert White Lanier, whose home is with his sister, at 29 Orient avenue, Jersey City, is the only race lad with Commander Byrd now in the Antarctic region with the South Polar expedition. When the first ship of the expedition left New York, Lanier was on board as a stowaway. He was landed at Cristobal, in the Panama Canal Zone. Lanier himself declared that he satisfied Captain Byrd who wanted him to remain then but the commander-in-chief received false reports from the United States that his character was not the best and was hence sent back to Panama and was then set out on foot from New York to answer these accusations. Charges Unfounded When he got back to New York friends sided him and he was able to prepare the charges and then set out on foot from New York for San Francisco in order to catch a steamer there for Australia. He reports having been caught in a wormy and was near freezing to dead. On another occasion he was picked up more dead than alive in the Nevada desert by H. R. Frather, of the Bradley News Company. He reports having been given a job on the Oceans-Orientation Company's steamer Golden State, which carried him to Australia where he joined the expedition on January 28, 1929. His friends who befriended Lanier here have received letters and periodicals from him mailed in Australia. ATLANTA. Ga.

PERRY HOWARD REINSTATED, RESIGNS Attorney-General Says Res signation Was Not Re quested. ____ THREE CANDIDATES WASHINGTON, D. C. Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, who was recently acquitted of charges of bartering Federal offices, resigned Monday as a special assistant to the attorney general. He will enter the general practice of law here. His resignation was coincident with the lifting of the order suspending him from duty and pay following his indictment by a Federal grand jury in Mississippi in last July on charges in connection with patronage. Not Asked to Resign Attorney General William D. Mitchell, whose acceptance of the resignation came the same time, said that he had not requested Mr. Howard to resign. Mr. Howard intimated that eight years of service would be sufficient. His resignation, he 'emphasized, had nothing to do with his position on the national commit- "Just Getting in" "I am not getting out of politics," he said, "but am merely getting in. I am notrammed, owing no allegiance except to my constituents and my race." He has been besieged with requests for speaking engagements. He said he would accept and fill most of them. Mr. Howard's was the first appointment of a colored man made by the Attorney General, appointed a special assistant, the Attorney General by Attorney General Harry M. Daughtry, May 15, 2001. His salary was increased to $6,000 a year later and he enjoyed the distinction of being the highest salaried colored man in the Government ser- Three Mentioned Chief consideration for the vacancy in the Department of Justice left by Mr. Howard is being given to Mr. Charles C. Galloway, of Kansas City, Mo. and Raymond Pace Alexander of Philadelphia, Pa. There is also possibility of a colored man being made a statutory assistant attorney general, but it is remote. There are two probable vacancies in assistant attorney generalships, which has been confirmed in connection with an assistant attorney generalship. It is the current rumor here that the appointment of James C. Tyler, white, to the United States Marshal's office in Mississippi is a reward for his services in striving to convict Perry W. Howard, National Committeeman for Mississippi, on the recent charges of bartering Federal patronage in that case, and was recently acquired at Meridian. Tyler sought to have the nomination sent to the Senate before the recent trial in order to assure the conviction. The counselers, Lamont Rowlands, of Cincinnati, white committeeman from that State, and Mrs. Willebradt the attempt was made, but the nomination from the White House until April 29. FOUR D. C.

MADISON, Wis. - While the people of color in Wisconsin are preparing for the legislative fight against a bill recently introduced in the state senate: to making it unlawful for whites and blacks to intermarry, the white people of this university town are debating amalgamation, a white southner by birth and training, and wife of a professor of the sociology department of the University of Wisconsin, was the first to declare her stand on the case of the Baptist Church she asserted that intermarriage was a good thing, and cited examples of mixed peoples to illustrate her point. As Mrs. Linton has just returned from a trip around the world and an extensive visit among darker people, the has been very emphatic in her statements. Wlry Not Marry? When asked if she would marry a beautiful girl, "Other things be- ing equal, yes," "It is as foolish to ask whether one would favor amalgamation," she said. "The question of prohibition as though the United States were bone-dry, and those who advocated some form of 'dampness' in the language in the saying orter." "In fact," she says, "even dry-bone-noodle would be easier to attain than black-and-white." "The black-and-black which many people seem to take 'or granted.'" Already Mixed "The fact is that a very large part of our population is already mixed racially, and we have only to decide whether we shall face the fact with equanimity and see what good can come out of it." She explained that most people do not have to decide whether they will have intermixing or not. She said that the pioneers in race mixture in America have decided to just use a race decided in every every where where the white man has lived side by side with another race. Benefits from Mixing "The benefits that generally come from mixed races are greater virility and fertility," according to Lars, Limon. "No one can be better than a mental power, but greater mental power may seem to go with greater fertility." C. C. NELSON HEADS MINISTERS' MEETING C. C.

O'Neal, a student, scores Washington society, and disillusioned the unsophisticated students who seek to gain access to Washington's "fridariate" society. Charging that extravagant dress and smooth manners are the open door to the city, the students in hints broadly that there are two types of students who are accepted by the Capital City's smart set; the smooth manned youth who is sought, not neglected by their teachers who by dressing well is able to fascinate the husband!

FRESHIES THEN SPLIT Lights Selected for One Frat, Darks for Another. WASHINGTON. (CNS) —Charging that the various Greek letter organizations are behind the movement to draw the colorline at Howard, Edward H. Taylor, a sophomore challenges the fraternities and sororites to give students with ability and dark complexions an opportunity for consideration as pledges and to live up to the traditions of the founders. The scathing indictment and challenge appears in the current edition of "Hill-top," the campus bi-monthly, headed "Putting A Question Up to Howard Students." Taylor, who is dark in color himself, asks the question "Are fraternities and sororites the cause of color segregation at Howard?" He answers this himself. Among freshmen, he says, real democracy lasts three months. Then light and brown complexioned students leave to separate bodies, leaving the dark skinned students to themselves. Fraternities pledge new members from the first two groups and rarely select dark students, unless they are the only students that many dark students make high averages in class work but are never considered for fraternities. Taylor intimates that the fraternities are governed by color standards, and tells how high student achievement should be thought of in scholarship is poor. Sas Taylor to the frats and sororites: "Open your prejudiced hearts and see if you cannot possibly find a real man or a real woman among the fraternities."

Howard Professor Concludes Survey of Dixie Provisions for Caring for Sick. LICENSES NEEDED State Should Regulate Institutions, Says Dr. Jackson. WASHINGTON, D.C. — Dr. Algernon B. Jackson, pr. fessor of bacteriology and public health of the Howard University School of Medicine, recently tade a survey of 120 Negro hospitals extending over seventeen states and the District of Columbia. The survey was made under the direction of the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of the American Medical Association. The report states that in some instances conditions were so serious and disheartening as to prompt the recommendation that the hospitals in question be abolished. But, on the other hand, institutions were found to be administered with efficiency, with service and care as their guiding motives. Such hospitals measured up to the standards of the association. Among other things, Dr. Jackson recommends that a careful study be made, state by state, of hospital beds, available from all sources, for Negroes, the standard of services rendered, and the proportion of pay and indigent patients. He also recommends that each hospital legitisates certain hospitals to obtain a license before operating a training school for nurses. 29 New Hospitals In his report, Dr. Jackson, provided the association with information concerning 29 hospitals, previously unreported; that out of 120 hospitals the staffs of eleven were made up entirely of white members, the majority of the staff members were white, of forty-two, the staffs were made up entirely of Negro physicians, and of twenty-one, the majority of staffs were Negroes. On the staffs of the 120 visitors visited the physicians were 482 white, and 515 colored. In the survey included Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Kentucky, Maryland, Ohio, Florida and the District of Columbia. treatment the scalp thoroughly with her's Vegetable Shampoo er.

The long feud between the Rev. W. H. Coston, travelling minister, and the Rev. John Cox, Friday when he was restored to full membership by unanimous vote of the body. The Rev. Mr. Coston was late to the meeting, late Rev. J. Albert Johnson in 1922. The bitter fight between the late bishop and the Rev. M. Coston occasioned many turbulent scenes on the floor of the conference, and Rev. M. Coston defended the private at every session. The suspension grew out of charges involving domestic relations of the pastor. Va. Conference Appointments STANTON, Va.—Bishop A. L. Gaines presided at the 63rd Virginia A.M.E. conference here.

St. Paul Normal and Industrial School Lawrenceville, Virginia Acting upon recommendations of its judiciary committee, the AME conference held in New York, J. E. Davis and W. H. Baker, dropped charges against the Rev. J. T. Taylor and reinstated him as an assistant in its annual session here last week. The action followed an executive session where charges against the members were made and placed in the hands of a committee comprising the Revs. D. G. Hill, C. H. Steptau, J. W. Norris and J. S. Collins. Kept Funeral Funds. In the case of the Rev. J. T. Taylor, it was charged that he spent a part of $170 in funeral funds raised for the purpose of burying his wife. The charges were dropped when it was shown that the pastor had satisfied all creditors involved. Rev. Baker Suspended. An indefinite suspension was given the Rev. W. H. Baker, Worton, Md. charged with fraudulent collection of funds in the name of an old folk's home in Baltimore. The case came into prominence some time ago when Rev.

Dr. Ernest Lyon, M. E. pastor and consul from that republic, told the Women's Missionary society the A.M.E. conference here Friday. Free and Independent "Liberal" the said, is a free and independent institution with books with suspicion upon the control of the consciences of her people by religious organizations whose creeds partake of the complexion of race and religion, and whose plex so much out of harmony with the character of the Founder of Christianity, whom, the hypocritical presidents of the state church, Dr. Lyon explained that the establishment of the state church in no way hampers religious activities of such organizations as the Mile Mission, the Mile Mission, who will keep the laws and respect the spirit of Liberian institutions.

So here it is. Thanks to Oscar Thanks to Mr. Oscar DePriest, new Congressman from Illinois, black boys will again walk the campuses of West Point and of Annapolis to cadets. the appointees named pass their final entrance tests, they will be the first colored man in the military academy since 1889 when the late Colonel Charles Young graduated. Race prejudice is worse in Annapolis than in West Point, for only three years were ever admitted to the military academy, and none remained more than a year. The last was dismissed in 1874. Twelve colored boys at various times attended the army cadet school at West Today there is not a single colored officer in the U. S. regular army or navy on active service except the chaplains. Lt. Col. Benjamin O. Davis and Lt. Col. John E. Green are on the active list but both have special assignments. There has not been a Negro naval officer in recent years except one or two who have been light skinned enough to pass for white. Whites regard the army and the navy as social organizations, bound by yards of red tape, instead of as patriotic military establishments. This explains why it came about that, of the fifteen colored boys who have entered the U. S. military schools only three have grenaded. "The usual cadets are the white cadets has been scholarship." When this failed brilliant cadets like the late Colonel Young told of persistent and cruel hazing on the part of white cadets in order to compel them to leave. At table Cadet, Young's feet were stepped on; he was kicked or slapped covertly by fellow cadets who cursed or insulted him under their breath. In fact for this went can be seen from Annapolis records which show that Henry C. Baker of Mississippi, was dismissed for cursing a white cadet at mess, who had insulted him. The three lads whom Mr. DePriest has appointed to the military and naval academies will need to rate 150 per cent in order to enter and to remain. Like Mr. DePriest himself, they will succeed best if they are not only courageous but hard-boiled—a match for bullies and foul fighters, ready either for necrop or war. Mr. Perry Howard was reinstated as special assistant to the U. S. Attorney General on Monday long enough to draw a check for some $4,500 from Andy Melton, the U. S. Treasurer, and to pay the costs of his injury. Mr. Howard was suspended some nine months ago after he refused to resign. As arbiter of Mississippi patronage and national Republican committeeman of the state, lily-whites wanted his scap, and Mabell was not interested. The Department of Justice, was slicked on bus. So Mr. Howard quits the Hoover administration which has not only failed to recognize the position he holds, but has used every means to discredit him politically and personally. But for the white Democrats of his state who oppose Hoover's attempts to put a strong G. O. P. in Mississippi, Mr. Howard would be ruined and broken man today. Instead, he resigns, not to quit but to fight. He goes out with the evident intention to make as hot for Hoover in Mississippi as Hoover has made it hot for him in Washington. If Senator James "Tom-Tom" Heflin (Dem. Ala.) talked for two weeks about the bottle some one threw at him in Brockton, Mass., and missed, how long would he talk if he had been "Tom" was talking at the time against the Roman Catholic church, when some one threw what newspaper men call the most famous bottle in history. Whether it was a milk, whiskey, pop or beer bottle, only the unknown thower appears to know that he'd been a suggestion that it should be reclaimed and put in the Smithsonian Institution. Mr. Heflin in the course of his remarks, threatened to campaign in Maryland against Senator Millard Tydings and prevent his re-election. The Tydings' reply was direct, expressive and crushing. Said the Marylander: "You can't scare me a damn bit." However ancient and childish may be the rules of the Senate which permit Heflin to waste the time and money of the government in drive and personalities; are not modern enough to preclude thoroughly disgusted Millard to swear—when that seems appropriate, form of reply. the only The AFRO itself prefers mild language, but it is convinced that if Hefin would be "damned" it offender, the Senate would get along further on 6 Out to Fight Not a Damn Dyer Tries Again For the fifth time, Monday, Mr. L. C. Dyer, (Rep., Mo.) introduced his anti-lynching bill in the U. S. Congress. Since the start of his campaign inaugurated as a part of the drive of the National Association to make lynching a federal crime, deaths by mob violence have materially declined. In 1921 there were 64 lynchings; 1922, 61; 1923, 28; 1924, 16; 1925, 18; 1926, 34; 1927, 21; 1938, 11. But during this same period nearly 200 attempted lynchings have been prevented. The effectiveness of the anti-lynchning campaign is evident, but we cannot afford to stop at that. Mr. James Weldon Johnson was right when he told the Senate committee in 1936, "even 18 lynchings in a country like the United States are just 18 too many." The N.A.A.C.P. report for 1889 listed 175 lynchings; 80 of the persons lynched were white. We have stopped lynching whites. We must lynching lynchings of blacks the agitation for a federal measure to stamp out mob violence should go on. AfroReadersSay Readers may write on any subject they like.

TODAY. By E. ROBERT BENNETT Mother! Today My mind is ever turning With loving thoughts To memories of Thee; Gall bless you, Den, And keep my love-light burning Mother! For Thee. Mother! For Thee. Mother! Today My heart is overflowing With gratitude For all you done for me; As years pass My love is brighter glowing Mother! For Thee. Mother! For Thee. Mother! Today My soul is fondly yearning For rest with Thee Beyond the veil you're passed; In spirit land That peace be Thine.— Oh, Darling Mother! For Thee. Mother! For Thee. There is Sound Philosophy in Reader Banton's Letter on Being Alone." It Gives AFRO Read- mother to Think About. Secure for yourself some regular privacy of life. As George Herbert says, "By all means use some time to be alone." God has put each into a separate body. Many people cannot endure alone in the dark and have not a clatter in their ears. It is not only weak, but it issters weakness. The gregarious instinct is animal, the sheep and the deer living on in us; to be alone is spiritual. We can have no clear, personal judgment of things till we are separate from them. We can not say of a difficult question, "Let me sleep on it." It was not merely for morning vigor, but to get the matter at a distance where he could measure the proportions and see its relations. In the world-companions, actions, work—in order to measure it, and ascertain our relations to it. Get some moments each day to yourself; take now and then a solitary walk; get into the sense of thick woods, or some grass; and as deep as you can sense of self-esteem upon you, as it surely will. Pythagoras insisted upon an hour of solitude every day to meet his mind and learn what oracle it had to impart. MARY J. C. BANTON, Principal, Adea Md.

To the Editor: The tabloid form in which the AFRO now appears, adds much to the image, and takes its form in its reading quality. Particularly does your issue of April 20th, featuring the induction of Mr. DePriest into office take well in these parts. You book occasion then to state to our people, and the church that the first page of that paper ought to be framed, and I expect that if I had ordered from you three times as many, that I would have found ready sale for them. It was, Mr. Editor, a very brilliant idea to have it arranged in that way. Should you come to many many homes, you will find that first page framed. May I venture to suggest that in some way you might find occasion to feature Douglas, Dunbar, Booker T. and any of those. It would cost you a picture gallery at little cost among our people. I wish for the AFRO every success, and as I have told it again and again, it takes rank among the first of the organs of our group. CHARLES C. WEATHERS 140 Lee Ave., New Brunswick, N.J. New Yorker Expresses His Views on Speech of Bishop Davis There, Monday. "You wonder why I have returned so sozz? I would rather be in the United States than anywhere else in the world and I thank God that I was born in this country." Thus the Rev. M. H. Davis, bishop of the African Mochidis Episcopal Church West, was the first to be on a trip to West Africa" in Emanuel Church, April 22. The Rev. D. Ward Nichols, pastor, presided. The prelate was at length in describing the condition, which came under his observation which, according to his address, offered no inducement for him to stay any longer than he did in West Africa. Speaking on the need for the best mankind of the natives, men and women, though he remarked on the absence of vice and immorality among them. In the course of his lecture, Bishop Davis thanked God that he was born in America and did not expect to be punished by the African and the Caucasian, but saw him in Africa any longer than he desired. There were present, among the audience, a few native Africans and when approached refused to make any statement; other than to say, as one of them remarked: "It is speeches like those which tend to stimulate British Church and Missionary agendas in Africa rather than to bring about an appreciation for the Afro-American people's interest and labors for that country." NEW YORKER The AFRO Is Like Race Relations. To the Editor: Keep smiling and go ahead; ever striving to make the AFRO perhaps not the biggest but the best of our Negro periodicals. Promote peace, better welfare and indeed become better, and so is your paper. SUBSCRIBER. Maxton, North Carolina. Sign Your Name.

EDITOR KIBOKO KIBOKO South Africa With Its Color Problem and Lawlessness, Shows Itself Closely Akin to Dixie. (From TIML Magazine) Cut a long, inch-wide strip of hide from a freshly killed rhinoceros. Let the strip age a little and toughen. Then have one of your black boys taper the kiboko, or sjambake, do some grinning ingratiatingly, he will hand you a tawny whip. Just right for use on a blackamoor, in the opinion of most South African white men. The callous manner in which White Rancher Jaerl Nafte recently violated every rule and command the kiboko etiquette was really the cause of his undoing. Some years ago the Union of South Africa forbade laying on of the kiboko by private individuals; but this law, like U. S. Prohibition statutes, has suffered practice. The kiboko may be brewed in comparative security throughout the U. S., a white South Africanander may kiboko his refractory blacks providing the kiboko is first stretched on the ground and covered with a blanket to protect him from embarrassing wet and cold conditions, he might run to the District Commissioner. No Blanket Neglecting to use a blanket, rash Rancher Jacar Nafte and his foreman proceed to kiboko a black named Sixpence Temba who, they said, had insulted a white woman. Spreadagelling the horrified blackamoor on a wagon wheel, they lashed him until their arms were tired. Later they suspended him by one foot from a tree and they were caught, though they noted that they were killing him. When tired again, they left him and went off to a picnic. Sixpence, as he had prohesied, died. Later they suspended him by one toe from a tree and went on with the kibooking though he screamed that they were killing him. When tired again, they heaped off a picnic. Sikpence, who had prophested, died. Convicted Last week all the southern gentlemen in South Africa were incensed when Nafte was convicted of manslaughter Sikpence and sentenced not only to yet another punishment but to re-claim the whipping post. Never before had a white man been sentenced to be kibooked in South Africa for kibooking a black-amoor. Irate Protestant editors called Catholic Judge Saul Solomon, K.C., who imposed the sentence, "negrophilist." Suffer Convicted Last week all the southern gentlemen in South Africa were incensed when Nafte was convicted of manslaughtering Skipence and sentenced to death. A few days later he cewen lashes at the whipping post. Never before had a white man sentenced to be kibooked in South Africa for kibooking a black amour. Judge Protestant editors called Carthage Judge Stuart K.C., who imposed the senten Suffer In handing down his decision Judge Solomon said: "Due to the fact that the defendant inflicted pain upon his victim by suspending him head downward and beating him to death, he likewise should suffer pain." A court for the defendant to South African Prime Minister, General the Hon. James Barry Munnik Hertzog brought a curt reply, "The sentence of flogging must be carried out." "TO THE MONTH OF MAY" Come and drive the blues away, Kiss me gently balmy May; Soothe me with thy sweetest chimes, Calm you seem to be all times, Lovely May! Eleven sisters you have got. Some are cold and some are hot; Tell me if it is the truth. That your charms are borne by youth? Baby May! Mother Year's fifth child I am, Not a bull but just a lamb; "She may be good or bad," said they— So mother said, "I'll call her May." So I am May. New York City. LOYD BERRY. Thanks to Reader Anthony. But the Majority of Reader Votes Tumbled Down on the Tablet To the Editor: I am happy to have an opportunity to tell you that your new paper is a wang. I am a regular reader of four Negro weeklies, but the AFRO is my favorite. I wish to congratulate you for your progressive effort to introduce the AFRO to your readers, and to benefit to your readers, it makes reading on a street car or in a crowd much easier.

I say, courage to the AFRO-AMERICAN, the greatest herald of Negro achievement. Philadelphia, Pa. LEWIS E. ANTHONY. Something More Than a Newspaper. To the Editor: I appreciate the AFRO on its effort to be something more than just a colored newspaper. You are putting out a modern sheet that may always be depended upon to have plenty of news. Downingtown, Pa. J. H. N. WARING. Reader Stanton's Suggestion Will Be Taken Under Consideration. To the Editor: I have noted in the public prints a release by a Washington news source which implies that Negroes are not getting employment in the U. S. Prohibition-Enforcement Service, largely based on the refusal of Prohibition Commissioner Donna F. McCormick to launch information about this group of his department personnel. The AFRO is about the most capable of doing this, and I feel that this would prove profitable if worked out properly. I would be an open debate on the immortality of the soul. I would be glad to offer my services gratis, and will challenge any opponent you may select. REV. N. HOWARD STAUNTON, Pastor Ebenezer Baptist Church, Alexandria, Va. Two Men are Employed in U. S. Prohibition Enforcement Service. To the Editor: I have noted in the public prints a release by a Washington news source which implies that Negroes are not getting employment in the U. S. Prohibition-Enforcement Service, largely based on the refusal of Prohibition Commissioner Donna F. McCormick to launch information about this group of his department personnel. S I, therefore, wish to use your widely circulated medium of public information to state that, as I personally know, two Africans have been dinned car waiters — one on New Haven, the other on Pennsylvania, out of New York; they were, and are, member of Locals N. 1 and 2, members of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees. I. therefore, wish to use your widely circulated medium of public information to state that, as I personally know, two Africs have been added to the Federal Prohibition Enforcement diner car waiters — one on New Haven, the other on Pennsylvania, out of New York; they were, and are, member of Locals Nos. 1 and 2, respectively, of the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees in the gentlemen qualified for the position in Civil Service examinations; appointments thereafter were not delayed, and both are now at work in New York, where they have participated in more than one raid in the downtown section of the city, and have enjoyed I. personally, but refrain from furnishing their names, as Commissioner Doran apparently realizes that good "detectives" "identities should not be disclosed." RIENZI B. LEMUS, Washington, D. C., April 28. N. Carolina Reader Thinks Lincoln Boys Havern 'as much Self Respect as Downtrodden South-erners. Dear Doctor: Surprised is no word for the outcome of the survey at Lincoln University. I am almost persuaded to ask for the paging of Mr. Davis of Hampton, as the outcome of the affair tends to call to mind the very type of men Mr. Davis "ignoramuses," and may I add, jackasses. asses. Just think of a man cutting his own throat to get around receiving the honor and recognition due him in Lincoln. They have had no race man to teach and instill race pride, self-respect and courage. Still, as a young man, I expected much more from Lincoln young men than the race man. I expected self-respect as we down-trodden southerners have. We here in North Carolina have asked for and received mixed faculties. We know here believes in Negro ability. These Lincoln boys remind me of the rebellion of an ass against going to the stall where his supper is waiting. I am a graduate. Immanuel Lutheran College, N.C. We have an entire German faculty, and no doubts that they are past masters of their work. still I have always contended that my Alma Mater would be better off with a faculty teacher, greatest progress came with a coached teacher on the campus, tho not officially on the faculty. K. M. Says: All hail to the N.A.A.C.P.; it has fought well with meagre instruments. The Negro's cause is just and righteous altogether.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People concerns itself mainly with the question of justice before the courts. The report records effective interference in several legal cases against individuals. These cases involve the issues of murder, extradition and civil political rights. There was laudable endeavor to prevent the illegal exclusion of the ex-gang member from Winnia, Florida and Arkansas. The segregation fight, so gloriously won in 1917 was continued in specific features, especially in Washington, D.C. The sum which is small indeed, when measured against the task essayed. A people who want their rights ought to be willing to pay for them. The contribution for the year amounts to less than $100,000, be said that the Association has made good use of the limited means placed at its disposal. The meagerness of contribution may be accounted for largely by the absence and spectacular feature. When some flagrant outage has been committed or some drastic unfriendly legislation proposed, the aid will be upon the excitement of the moment, will empty its pocketbook to accomplish the object which has inflamed the public's sense of the great need is still the need of education. Indictment Against Race The comprehensive ends of justice are not accomplished in the fasty enthusiasm of the excited moment but rather by deliberate, sustained and peristont endeavor. This oratory is called for large amounts to cope with some threatening evil, such as lynching, segregation and disfranchisement, but no adequate response has been forthcoming. The negative response is in turn to that of the tyrannous lamb, which bears his passion as the flint bears fire which more enforced shows a hasty spark and straight is cold again. The report before me is a hasty spark and straight is cold race that it has no deep-seated interest in its rights. Indeed, if it were not for a few individuals who keep hammering away in and out of season, the race as a whole would become blissfully oblivious of such force as the N.A.A.C.P. keeps to the fore. Race Discrimination Race discrimination takes on several crystallized forms which can be definitely combated. Race prejudice, as such, is in itself too subtle to be easily detected in an instinct effort. A feeling which finds lodgment in the individual breast cannot be overcome by assault and battery. It is only when it becomes embodied in outward expression of the object of formal attack. Disfranchisement. jim-crow cars separate schools, anti-misegregation laws, residential segregation by law, and restriction or exclusion of New Yorkers from certain attainment or amusement represent the six crystallized forms of segregation which the N.A.A.C. P. was born to combat. Twenty years of continuous and persistent endeavor has searched made a perceptible dint in the race. There have been incidental victories, here and there, but not a single one. There have been plished. Disfranchisement is still rampant. Jim-crow cars are still rumbling through the land, separate from the street. There is a stamp of approval by the supreme court. residential segregation is extending its periphery year-by year; public places of entertainment and exclude the black would be entrant. Incidental Victories These are not the words of disparagement or despair but a plain description of the actualities of the situation. Negative complacency is satisfied when complacency at his wonderful achievements, in deplorable oblivion of their inadequacy. He lacks the sense of proportion. He is satisfied with a few shells, picked up along the shore, the totally ignoring the great ocean of which lies uninvaded before him. All hail to the N.A.A.C.P. He has fought well with meager instruments; But we must neither allow our surpassance to self-complacency nor depressed by the gloom of over-awing difficulties. Three Weapons Aggrieved classes. the laboring man for example) use three principal weapons: the strike, the balloon attack, the machine weapons he compels a remedy of his grievances. Unfortunately the Negro cannot use effectively any of these weapons, and boycotts are impossible. While he has the ballot in some places, he rarely uses it for defensive purposes. he certainly did not do so in the war. In the South where the ballot might serve a great protective purpose, it was taken from him for fear that he would use it in the battle against restoration is not promising under the prevalent Ily-white dispensation. The only defensive weapon which is left the Negro is the appeal to the Conquerors, and the appeal is not always heeded, yet this is the only available resort. The N.A.A.C.P. is availing itself of this legal weapon to compel the rights of the race as ar at at the possibility of a whole race falling in behind this militant organization to hold up its hands as it wields the legal sword. Cause Is Just But aggrieved classes win their battles by tactics as well as by being the most powerful man, by appealing to the enlightened conscience of the civilized world. When you have put the adversary on the wrong side of the moral judgment, victory is half won. The sword of the Union Army and the pen of Lincoln overthrew slavery only because the abolitionist victory before the moral arbitration of mankind. Trice armed is he who has his quarrel just. The Negro cause is just and right, and it is in alignment with the Ten Commandments, the Golden Rule, the Sermon on the Mount, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States, the foundation can be laid that the one which has HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO RUN A FIRST CLASS COLLEGE?

Excluded From Jury, Court Says, No Trial (From the New York Law Journal) "In the recent case of Carrick vs. State (274 F.3d 1925, 1929) the defendant, a young colored girl, was convicted of murder. "On appeal she complained that she was denied equal protection of the jury, equal security of the 14th Amendment, since citizens of African descent had been purposely excluded from the panel of jurors drawn to hear the test. The jury rejected the request impossible for a mixed jury to have come into existence. This unjust discrimination, if established, would be sufficient basis for a new trial, since the jury settled constitutional principles. "On the trial defendant's attorney moved to quash the panel and excepted to the court's ruling denying the jury's right to appeal. The Criminal Court of Appeals of Oklahoma held that the trial court committed reversible error in overruling the motion to quash the jury's right to appeal and admitted that the jury commissioners had purposely excluded from the jury list, because of their color, citizens of the African race who were equally qualified to perform jury service. "This is a sound and wholesome ruling." Nordic Superiority Really the Same as the Big Head (From the Denver Star) Elbert Hubbard said that he not only most chosen people chose themselves. It is not only kings that imagine that, because they have certain advantages, God has selected them. He is not only the king that it is superior to all other nations. His emperor has descended from divinity. We all remember the outlaw. The Chinese call themselves the sons of heaven. The Japanese think of German vanity in the late war. We are all admired by the stink. The English think they are the only people and some Americans imagine Americans are better than anybody else. The literature about Nordic supremacy, though Nordics should be better than the other kind of people who were made by the same Creator I never knew. The Nordics happened to be the first to use mechanical energy, and using the resources of this energy, they could do the work and also got the big head. There is no biological superiority of the white man over the scientist spirit that dominates the West, will equal the white man in any kind of effort, and will merely in the fact that he got the start. This kind of talk will be a blow to the man who think we are God's chosen people. DO YOU KNOW? The Importance of the Potato Crop? The potato ranks next to the cereals as a food crop, and is third in the number of calories that can be grown on an acre of land, corn ranking first and sweet potatoes second. The potato is the most important vegetable crop grown in the United States, and is eighth in the list of all crops in point of total value. The average per capita consumption is 3.5 to 4 bushels; average acreage 4 million, average production nearly 400 million bushels, or 100 bushels per acre. Annual value of crop about $500,000,000.

Week's Poem HOME IS WHERE THERE'S ONE TO LOVE. US. Charles Swainl (1801-1874) Home's not merely four square walls. Though with pictures hung and gilded: Home is where Affection calls-- Filled with shines the Heart hath built! Home--Go watch the faithful dove. Sailing neath the heaven above us: Home is where there's one to love! Home is where there's one to love! us! Home's not merely roof and room. It needs something to endear it; Home is where the heart can bloom. Where there's some kind lip to cheer it! What is there with none to meet. None to welcome, none to greet us? Home is sweet, and only sweet. Where there's one we love to meet us! English Do not say "only a few people accepted his offer." Say "persons" when referring to a small or individual group.

The New South (Balto Evening Su-1) One of the difficult problems facing President Hoover, according to Washington news stories, is the distribution of patronage in the Republican South. In the Democratic South, that is, in South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, things will go along as usual. But in the new Republican territory of Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Florida and Texas a new deal is obviously in order, and there is a great dispute as to whether Negroes are entitled to recognition in these States. One's first impulse, of course, is to repudiate the suggestion that even the Republican South will hesitate for a moment over such a question. But on second thought one is reminded that the Republican South has done a great many things recently which were thought impossible. It has managed to come to an understanding with the G. O. P. on the tariff. It has managed to swing to the G. O. P. position on centralized government. More submissively even than the Middle West, it has recognized the overlordship of the political person, with all that it implies. Perhaps we are nearer than we think we will grant the Negro's right to full political representation, including a share of the spoils of office. Some of the Southern States may remain intransient for a long time, but sure enough those which are, on all other points, already converted to Repullianism. THE MOUTH AND HEALTH By STEPHEN J. LEWIS.

The United States, the most democratic country, appears at least, in the world, still trained men out of its military academies and bars them from graduation until the time comes for actual dying in the battle-fields.

If obstacles are shaped in way of being overcome, you will not be done by white youth, nor countryside and our American officials who cringe before public scrutiny while young to teach the young to face shot and shell. Community Drama. Every community should support its drama and its little theatre in the community—with the same borne some of duty that it supports the church; correspondence the effort of Randolph Edmunds and his wife; the community serves more recognition than it gets from the responsible people in this city. Especially should the church bind hard any effort to draw the dramatic standards of amusement; which play a vital part in the development of young men and women.

Most of them butchers, butchers, and business men who serve the people in a commendable manner, and of them are cheaters and tricksters who rely upon the confidence and credulity of the simple-minded bleed. They fill their dirty, filthy little stores with inferior merchandise and third-grade meats and then them to our people at first-grade prices. They use short weights and measures at their own available opportunity and that are not scrutinized closely; they will calm off decaying vegetables and rotten meats on their unsuspecting customers without qualification.

Huston, commissioner of education of the Elks by Sheridan A. Bruscae, head of the Keystone National Detective Agency, who investigated Elk affairs for prominent New York and Chicago Elks. The minutes of the 1928 grand lodge show that Mr. Huston's office disbursed the sum of $13,712.20 from August 4, 1927, to August 6, 1928. Of this only $7,004.20 was disbursed to universities, colleges and schools for scholarships. The sum of $1,400, according to the minutes, was spent in connection with the last national oratorical contest. The balance of the amount disbursed was paid out for salaries and office expenses. Salary £3083 Mr. Hueston received a total salary of $3,083.32. His clerk was paid by the Elks the sum of $1,100. Mr. Hueston also received for incidental expenses of his office the sum of $789.02. He obtained account of the expenditures in connection with the national oratorical contest is given. The minutes simply show that a check for $1,050 for office was drawn to the order of J. Finley Wilson and another check for $350 for general expenses of the contest was drawn to the order of W. G. Hueston, Washington, D.C., in 1927, the expenses of the contest were less than $200 Two Contests The two national oratorical contests conducted by the commissioner of education were flascos, Mr. Brueaux charged. The contest in Washington ended in a charge made by the guardian of a youth from Norfolk, Va. who won the second prize that he was short-changed of $100 in his prize money. The contest in Chicago ended in a near-riot when the judges were charged with robbery, the color question being injected into the affair; a mass being taken by Miss Nannie H. Brueaux of Washington, D.C. questioned the decision of the judges. The audience believed that the decision was made on the basis of color and not of oratory. Prolific Writer Mr. Hueston is a prolific writer, Mr. Bruseau says. His reports to the grand lodge are generalities, from which nothing of the work of his bureau can be gleaned, states the investigator. He suggests that Mr. Hueston clear up the situation by informing the Elks in regard to the cost of operation of his office and the justification for the tax of $15,000 a year that has been imposed upon the brotherhood for the carrying of the work of his bureau. He knows, "The Elks are entitled to know," says Mr. Bruseau, "how much time Mr. Hueston devotes to his duties as commissioner of education for his salary of $3,000 a year in comparison with the time he devotes to his magisterial duties and legal work. "They are entitled to know how much work Miss Ella Mae Ross. his clerk who is paid $1,200 a year by the order, does exclusively for the Elks and how much of Mr. Hueston's magisterial, legal and personal stenographic work she does." 36 Scholarships "A cost of $6700 for the administration of 36 scholarships and the staging of a national oratorical contest of the kind that Mr. Hueston staged in 1927 and 1928. is too great WHEN AWAY FROM HOME Hotel Rockland 3 to 13 West 136th Street, New York City Hot and Cold Water in Each Room—Immaculately Clean Courteous Treatment Special Rates Daily or Weekly HARLEM 9022 CHAS.

We saw this board which met last week in the Maryland Insurance building in the office of secretary, John G. Rose, resigned and elected a new colored trustee board in its stead. The congregation under the pastorate of the Rev. V. W. Walker has been self-supporting for twenty years. Last October a year ago, the church moved to its new building at Madison avenue near North. At present, there is a debt of $4,000 on this new structure. Old Madison Street church has been remodeled into an office building.

MORGANITES SCORE IN HREE ONE-ACT PLAYS MORGANITES SCORE IN HREE ONE-ACT PLAYS The Morgan College Dramatic Club, presenting three one-act plays, ranging from melodrama to musicals, nurtures their growing store, by pleasing a large and unusually receptive audience, with a midnight performance at the Royal Theatre. With the acclaim of New York and Philadelphia audiences behind them, local collegians, directed by Prof. Randolph Edmons, demonstrated their creditable craft, most creditable fashion Willis Richdons' "The House of Sham," Paul Green's "The Man Who Died at twelve," O Clock, and "Slircocks a comedy, written by Prof. Edmons." From the stark reality of social ambition thwarted by depleted finances in "The House of Sham," to the lock Bones, the audience at all times found an abundance of entertainment. Probably most striking was Miss Allen Koger, who as Sallie Evans, a rustic and emotional young girl in "The Man Who Died at Twelve O'Clock" held the audience at times slightly forced, portrayal of the simple, yet forceful character of a trusting young girl who would ally with her marriage to her country swain. James Carr, as Charlie, her 19th and Osborne xoxon, after her 19th and 20th editions, gave exceedingly excellent and effective support thoukr the latter's voice should be heard. The performance was sent by the players in New York. Friday in the Little Theatre tournament, which has drawn amateur thespians from many parts of the country. Applause frequently interrupted the other vehicles, evidencing the warmth: with which the audience was receiving the offering.

Dudley, Jr.'s stage offering at the Royal Theatre, this week, should certify that it is the only show no motionless pedal extremities in the entire production. Taking an encore on their opening number in which the chorus of bronzeed steppers gyrates to the tune of "I'm Feeling Devilish," sung by the vivacious woman who makes the audience thru the series of entertaining whirls a series of entertaining whirls which leave little to be asked for. Miss Travis's dancing and her singing easily captivated the audience by her bell ringer, a bell ringer at the Monday matinee. Sharing feminine honors with Miss Travis is none other than Baltimore's own Lily Yuen, who demonstrates to the delight of the customers that she can sing and engage with the audience, including Rose August, a soubret, sang to the satisfaction of the cash buyers. None other than Willie Bryant, formerly with the Whitman Sisters, is playing the role of straight man and the way he plays it is no more than a stern voice in Dancing Dandies." Ernest Moorman, Eddie Ford and John Berry demonstrate a brand of hoofing which called for more than one helping, is dressed in black and is assisted in the backface department by Jesse Jines, who, while a much weaker character, proves a pliant foil for the quips and droolery of the ebony Edgar. supporting chorus of ten well-supported some rather fetching costumes against colorful backgrounds, worked every minute of the show and proved again that such feminine pulchritude is indisputable.

THE ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION BROWNING MURDER MARY ANN WELLING brown, bumplin and beautiful, cook and housekeeper for Captain Browne, and her husband as he hurried up the steps of the palatial home of the old retired captain and shipping magnate, a big party over in Calhoun the night before and the day of the occasion had not begun to wear off. Moreover, it was a beautiful morning, singularly free from the fog that so often envelopes the California sun, barely cloaked the California sun was bearing the earth with its strong rays. The city was just get-together in its daily stride and up and down the street could be seen enjoying the coaching of the wealthy owners to downtown businesses. Bill humming, the housekeeper knocked the front door, entered and sent back to the kitchen where he had dinner meal. There was no one to except Captain Browning so he was very particular. An assistant bachelor, lively absolute, insisted in everything being perfect about the necessarily large and pretentious mansion, and particularly was busy about his meals. He was busy in his breakfast room and putting the flashing tongues on the meal. The captain usually came down to break-ease at nine o'clock and she always a point to be ready for. Nine oclock arrived and the great alarm clock in the wide hall tollled out the hour. Mary placed the breakfast in an ice bowl at the entrance place and she should hear him come shuffling into the breakfast room. She waited and waited. She waited of waiting and decided to make use of the time by some some potatoes for luncheon. She wondered if the captain Brown was there. He had never been so late before and had worked for him for over the years. "Well," she mumbled to her never can tell what she likeable to tell him. Ten oclock struck. Mary peeped on the breakfast room only to see the captain's chair empty as before, alarms her. There must be something the matter. What in the world could it be? Had the captain been there, wouldn't be that because, he never took a walk until after breakfast when the sun was high. Then had died during the night? Oh, that must be, for although past events, he was for a result of the wilde ear as a result of the wilde ear he had lived in in many years before the mast. Frank she was puzzled and alarmed. UNUSUAL FOREBODING. when she the great colonial clock warmed her. she decided to go up and knock him down. he door. he warned his door. he disturbed but she felt that in this instance she was justified in doing so. she was quiet as a tomb, the footfalls of the housekeeper hollow and unearthly in the narrow corridor. With some mischief dancing at her heart, she pulled up the bed, she dressed and walked down the upper way to the door of the huge bed where the captain slept. Her right tap brought no response. She knuckled loudly. The sound穿透 the great building she manned greeted her. Puzzled, she manned bent over and squinted through the great building. She did not sue to on her knees. She did not sit on her knees but she felt justified in doing so when he was two hours late for breakfast for the first time in years. With some difficulty she could lie on the bed. It was unrestured, and she had surprised and started her. Where could the capim be? What could the capim be? What could that he had not slept in this queen fever over; a premonition swept over her. she turned the doob knob bleeding into the enter, but, the door could not be打开; she was locked! Admitting the captain had studied and study, a great room, with oak, its walls and shelves, used with the old ship master had collected its many things. There, surrounded by books and notes, the sea captain wrote for many hours every day on his memoirs of a half century at sea. "Probably," Mary surmised, "he is in there." Suiting action to thought, she went to the next door down the hallway and knocked on the knocked door. Still no answer. Again, she pepped through the key-hole. THE HEADLESS HORROR. THE HEADLESS HORROR The sight she saw froze here to the gaze she faced for a full thirty seconds. There in the great chair, facing the door and with the long table table in front of him, sat the captain. But was it the captain? Horrors! Were the minis pajamas and dressing gown was headless? The body sat erect but where the head should have been was nothing but the bloody stump of the neck while the papers and speeding downstairs were paused with the life fluid. With a terribly piercing scream Mary tore herself from the door of the study and speeding downstairs with almost the velocity of a bullet. she burst out of the front door and yelled at the top of "Murder! Murder! Come quick Captain Browning has been killed!" The cries rang down the streets as heads appeared at windows and people came running Among them was Officer Clancy the patrolman on the beat. He immediately ran up the headquarters and then went upstairs, forcing the reluctant Mary to go along with him to point out the study. He tried to explain that he could open the door, he hurled his huge weight against it. The door, however, was stronger than Clancy. Again his break was in against the break. His way in Then the front door opened and Chief of Police Corrigan and several detectives came up the stairs. The gatherer entered the room and entered. Hardened in the ways of crime as they were, they stepped back in horror and amazement at what they saw. There sat the headless man of Bainin, the warden's right hand yet grasped the fountain pen with which he had been writing. The room was perfectly orderly. The overturned chair apparently not a thing had been disturbed. A search of the drawers of his desk disclosed several hundred dollars in currency and at least a hundred monstrous pockets of robbery in a motive. The windows were locked tight and they found the key to the study door in the captain's pocket. **POLICE BAFFLLED** The door opened and the entire house carefully but after several hours they had to admit that they were stumped. Every door was locked and Miss Welling, the housekeeper, from the door locked, as usual, when she had come to work that morning. "Well I'll be dogged," Chief Corrigan exclaimed. "This is the darnest case I've ever run with here. Here's an old boy who spent plenty of time on death-kills him but rob him, although there's a fortune within their reach." "And they have to go an 'cut off his head and take it wi' em and add some stitches to it." I make nothing of that. What did they want to take his head for? And how did they get it? And what of the doors were opened? That is what gets me." That was what puzzled the entire city. For a week the entire detective force of the city worked on the case but at the time the police had denied not a single clue. The newspapers, as usual, were clamoring for action. Here was one of the most wealthy and famous citizens of San Francisco in the early 1990s and not a single arrest had been made after a whole week. It was demanded that something be done immediately or a call would be made by the leading citizens for a shakeup in the police department. Corrigan was plainly worried. 'His best detectives had failed him. He himself had been unable to find a single clue or motive for crime. The Cincinnati police offered a reward of $10,000 for information leading to the capture of the murderer or murderers. But as yet no information had been submitted from any source whatever. He had been told that if he failed to solve this case he would lose his position. Use Head As Well As Heart In Love able cigarettes. He had almost finished when he noticed something that gripped his attention. Feverishly he read and read. DARRINGON DISCOVERS SOMETHING. Suddenly he was all activity. He grabbed the telephone. 'Hello! Let me speak to Chief Corrigan. Yes, right away. It’s very important. Hello, chief! I want you to find out something. I think you found out something. I want you to arrange with The Eagle, the afternoon paper, to hold space open on their front page for an interesting news item of about 300 words in connection with the Browning case. If they can run right down immediately, they can run right down. No, I can’t explain it here and now but it’s a good lead and everything depends on that news item. Yes. I’m here at the Browning place now. Darringer hung up and sank back in the death chair with a smile of triumph on Soon the telephone bell rang. It was Corrigan. Everything was arranged. The Eagle would hold up the door. Darlington rushed out of the house with surprising speed for a middle-aged man, leaped into his car and in fifteen minutes was paused in pain. He hurried conduction with the city editor, he came out again and drove immediately to the DeYoung Museum where he asked for theacia in charge, to explain his modern explanation of his mission. "I am going to stay here tonight in your room devoted to exhibits from the South Seas. There will be other officers with me, but we assure you that nothing will be injured. This is in connection with the Browning case and I know you want to do everything possible to help in the solving of that mystery.

"Chief, there a colored man out here to see you about the Browning murder case." DARRINGTON APPEARS. Corrigan jumped. "Show him in here. Then he thought to himself. "What can we know about this? Well, I'll see, anyway. Can't afford to learn these now." The door opened and a tall, stern-looking black man, with slightly green skin, grinned at him. The officer waved him to a chair on the other side of his desk. The Negr sat down gravely and without haste. His name is Donald Darrington; he began, "Known to police in many cities as 'One Day' Darrington because on several occasions he solved difficult cases in less than twenty-four." The Chicago police department for about fifteen years but for the last two or three years he have been living out here on the Coast taking it easy. They discovered oil on one of my farms in Oklahoma so I decided to quit the police "Well," Chief Corrigan interrupted "what's that got to do with this case? I've heard of you, Darrington, and know about it. You've been busy, right, but not I'm too busy to hold any conversation." Darrington smiled indulgently. Despite his record, he knew nothing of his ability to "influence" in this ability "Well," he began, "you folks certainly need help. I've been reading a lot about this case and it doesn't seem so difficult to me Just give me a look over the house and look through Captain Brownings' papers and I'm quite sure I can have some interesting information for you within the next day or so." CHEF DOUBTS DARRINGTON. Chief pondered a minute. There was no time to waste. Maybe anything Any port in a storm like this. "All right," he told Darrington, "T'll deputize you and see what you can do. If you can find out anything you doing awhole more than that Darrington rose. "Now," he said. "I must ask you to say nothing about me to the newspapers or any other person that me are assigned to this case. I must have no interference with my work. Tomorrow about this time I shall probably have something to work on. Let me have a badge now and I will go." Marveling at this Negro's calm assurance, Corrigan provided him with a badge and all necessary credentials. With a smile Donald Darrington jumped from the staircase briefly from the station door. Walking briskly to the cure, he stepped into his roadster and in a few minutes drew up in front of the Browning residence. The policeman on guard at the door glanced at him suspiciously, barred the way, and blacked his credentials. Then stepping aside respectfully, he let Darrington pass. DARRINGTON AT WORK: As soon as the Negro entered the room, he whipped out his magnifying Glass and went carefully over every article of furniture, even the table he stood on chairs and studded the long shelves that ran around the room about six feet above the floor. Suddenly he noticed that instinct aroused within him, glanced at one of the shelves intently. Whipping out his notebook he jolted down something and then continued his rounds of He then abruptly seated himself in the same chair where the headless body had been found. From that position he gazed long hard at the desk, his broken hings. Turning around in the chair he then glanced behind him.

Julia Jerome We have a letter this week from Blackstone, Virginia. Dear Mrs. Jerome: I have been going with a young man in this town since last October and during this time he has asked me to marry him and I have promised to do so. However, this is not my home town and I have to leave here in April. Lately, I have discovered that he is keeping company with a girl in another city and frequently goes and spends the day with her. When I question him about he denies it but I save noticed an avid speaking of marriage now. It will break my heart to lose him and if I leave here without him I am sure I will never see him again. Stop trying to hold him and maybe you will hold him better. Do not question him as if you were jealous and fearful of losing him. Have a frank talk with him and tell him you are sincerely interested in his happiness. Tell him that if he loves the other girl that you want him to forget that he asked you to marry him and to go to see. That is would never do for you much harm. You will half his heart. Be candid and quite calm. Tell him that you love him but that you would not want him to be unhappy and would prefer to sidelow him, having him so. This is the sensible way. I believe for now I to look at it. If he is really crazy about the other you would keep thinking of her even after he married you and make you unhappy. But if he you eat at first and is only interested in woman your husband and sincerity will win him back. He will consider himself very fortunate to be loved so unselfishly.

She was making a dozen ruffles for Lucy's new organdy Finally, after Lucy had spilled water from her paint lug on a library book and had cut her own apron while outlining a paper doll. Mother jumped up hastily and seized her small daughter. With outspoken impatience and reproof she set her upon a chair in the corner. "Now sit there half an hour and he good," she commanded. Boru Lucy! She was already uncomfortable and distressed from recent scolding. Everything had wrong just as she had wrong for paint sets for paint sets and cutouts. And now she was told to sit still and be good. What a mistake in disciplines for that mother! What a mistake in be less can make a make a child sit still and tell her to start being good. For being good implies action. Being good means making a choice between two acts, as action in children's concern.

He might be forming vindictive talk, vindictive not only to run and hide if another lecture is ever mentioned but to "get even" with all who have had anything to do with his present restraint and things like a child "being good." Thoughtful mothers are giving increased attention to the inner being of the small child. They are taking the probable thoughts of the child into consideration and recognizing "being" as a voluntary act.

Diseases Which Turn Negroes White Nature, Through Nervous Diseases, Destroys Skin Pigment, Causing Skin to Become Lighter than the Most Powerful Skin Bleacher. WHERE are on the n.r. market at the present time in this country various in this age, advertised to make Negroes white. These lotions are widely sold, and it is generally known that many of them will actually lighten skin. Needless to say, chemists have been busy for many years trying to make them will lighten dark skins permanently. Up to the present time they have been unsuccessful. If such an invention or discovery could be placed on the market the person or perhaps he might make a fortune almost over night. had turned almost completely white, due to the ravages of this disease. It is an acquired disease, characterized by the progressive disappearance of the normal pigmentation. There first appear little white or pinkish spots on various parts of the skin, and neither stinken or rude above the level of the skin. Around their borders the real pigment is darker than elsewhere. The hair in these spots gradually turns white along the skin, and the smoothness in good health and is perfectly normal in every way. except for occasional nervous disturbances. Usually these spots appear on the It is interesting to note that what science has been unable to do, Nature has done on numerous occasions. The albino species are often cited cases where the offspring of two black parents has been born whiter than any so-called white person, and there are quite a number of cases where people who have been born black have been white during their lifetime. Where Negroes, the offspring of full-blooded Negroes, have been born completely white, it is called albinism. These albinos are pinkish and hairy, while full-blooded hairy and pinkish eyes. They are unable to see well in a strong light and their eyelids are always fluttering. These albinos have not only been found among the African population in Africa, where they are often looked upon as being possessed of the devil. Albinos often appear, also, among so-called white people, where, however, they do not appear, contrast to the rest of the population. There is a disease called Vitiligo, which affects both whites and Negroes, though it attacks. Negroes more often than white folks are infected. The dark skin. Not long ago news reports told of a black man, in Boston, Mass., who we are together. He has promised me a ring. Will I receive it? I also dream of the one whom I expect to marry. Shall I marry him with this married man—does he really care? If not, why does he correspond with me and appear so affectionate? I dreamed I will marry this year. Will I ever have any children by the man I love? MISS C. Eastern, Md. Dear Friend: Leave the married man cut of the picture and forget the engagement. You are not as yet sufficiently reliable to become a wife and mother. Wait a few years. You do want to meet the man you could reveal 'hat to' a blind person. The married man is not worthy of a wife.

It is an acquired disease, characterized by the progressive, disappearance of the normal pigmentation. The skin is often pitted, punkish spots on various parts of the body. These spots are smooth, being neither skinken or raised above the level of the skin. Around their edges, the skin is often thinner than elsewhere. The hair in these spots gradually turns white along with the skin. The victim remains normal in every way except for occasional nervous disturbances. Usually these spots appear on the backs of the hands, and on the neck, face, scap and other parts of the body. Sometimes they are on the back of the neck, as acquired after the 10th and before the 30th year. In the Louisville Medical News in 1880, 2 Dr. Hall tells of a malatto who, with the exception of a part of the chin and a few small patches on the hands, turned common sense into a large expansion of these spots until they ran into cahal other and eliminated the dark coloring. Stelwagon in his "Diseases of the Skin" states that there are many instances where black Negroes have permanently turned out that once the pigment is removed in this manner it never returns. The exact cause of Vitiligo is unknown, but it is more frequent in tropical countries are* in the dark races. It occurs generally in adults and children. It has been known to be associated with malaria, eruptive fevers such as migraine, alopecia, areata, scleroderma. Addison's disease and other diseases follow exposure to extremes of heat or cold, or local injuries. While these factors have little in common, they are all followed by derangement of the nervous system and it is thought that the cause of Vitiligo is associated with this. When the spots appear ili-health factors are increased to further increase in the number and size of Vitiligo. Neurotic people are especially susceptible to Vitiligo. In rare instances the spots have been more severely scarred or shocked been very badly scared or injured in some way. There is no known cure for Villihola. The spots have sometimes been removed, but general health has been improved or when treated with a certain mixture of arsenic. In general, however, the only thing that can be done — to treat the skin — is a weak solution of todine. Of late years many medical authorities have come to believe that the suprarenal gland has something to do, with the possibility of be possible for science of the future to learn how to treat the suprarenal gland in such a wav as to cause the skin of a Negro to turn white? Who can care many and in this day of wireless telephony, television and talking movies, who can say what the morrow will bring forth? Before another person pass wise men of Nigroes white! For those Negroes who may want it have a white skin for reasons best known to themselves. While Vilhico is a rare disease, it also takes fifteen or twenty, and possibly 30 or 40 years for a victim to turn completely white. And then there are likely to be one or two dark skin cases of "spotted" or "leopard" people one sees in the side shows of our big bicircles are victims of Vilhico, and while they have been exhibited in museums in which any one of them has turned completely white. So until science finds some way to cause Vilhico and then learns to exert its course on all our skin cases of their normal color even though they whiten up temporarily. **BEAUTIFUL, NOT DUMB** Blessings on your little skirt.

Spicer GET THE GENUINE AND GET RESULTS S THERE no way to stop the ravages of "sleeping sickness." that dread African disease that is rapidly spreading throughout the United States. Mast. Africa, the greatest country in the world today stand helpless before the onrush of this horrible malady which leaves in its wake a trail of corpses, disordered bodies, broken minds and wrecked nervous systems? Is science going to be able to halt its disastrous course in the hope of saving it? These are the questions that Pro. Adrian Scotten of the University of Wisconsin, under the Direction of the Wisconsin State Psychiatric Institute and Prof. William F. Lorens of the neuropsychiatry department of the university medical school have asked him. They have issued the following statement which is certainly disturbing: "Perhaps no disease in the short span of 12 years has wrought so great a havoc, covere: the world so quickly or left so many disabled persons to die, so deceive a deliverance from a life of misery. It is in truth a living death. "At the present time there are thousands of persons suffering from the ravages of this disease in the United States, although only a few hundred new cases are discovered and reported to the state health departments each year. These scientists report that there are over 1,000 cases of "sleeping sickness" in the state of Wisconsin alone, while the city of Chicago, Illinois, reported over 30 new cases in 1928. The tumble, of cases reported to the authorities is only a fraction of the total number of the people who are suffering from the dread disease, because many people who have it do not know that they have it.

In the "Sleeping Sickness" area, it is common to find victims who have died in their sleep or a total annihilation of entire tribes of people. Home of Tsetse Fly Sleeping Sickness Area Just begun to ravage the white world, the unfortunate blacks of Africa have been acquainted with it for well over 150 years or more. In the Congo Free State and Uganda, and in other regions where there are forests, jungles and damp lowlying spots, the disease has taken a heavy toll. Some idea of the virulence of the disease can be gathered from the fact that in 1891, Captain F. D. Lugard of the British army took about 300 Sudanese soldiers and as many camp followers from the Congo forest area where the disease abounds into Uganda, where it was hardly known at the time. In less than eight years nearly a tail* million Negroes in Uganda died from the malaria infection, the stalwart blacks died in droves all over Africa and the white colonizers stood astonish and bliss. The whites were not immune. They were attacked by the disease a'd died horrible deaths along with the blacks. The malady also a'd attacked the whitewashed away. Nagana is very similar in its symptoms to the disease of cattle in this country known as "Texas fever." Strange to sav. it has been reported by scientists that "sleeping sickness is harder on white people than on blacks" and cansians catch the disease and are not treated they almost invariably succumb. Out of every 100 cases, 25 recover completely, 25 die. while 50 are left with various ailments as a result of the disease's ravages and at least half of that number are a'd frozen face" that is the total absence of facial expression. In this latter ailment, the victims' faces become set like a prosthetic mask. The "sleeping sickness" first shows its presence and activity by swellin' of the glands behind the neck, a condition which is accompanied by irregular and intermittent fever. The germs, however, may have been in the body for a considerable period; before any symptoms of the disease show themselves. After a time, usually three months to three years, the germs vain access to the cold in the interior, causing languor, lethargy and gradually increasing agony. The incubation period (time of infection and appearance of symptoms) may be as short as four weeks or extend over a period of several years, depending on the state of the victim's health. Thinalgia session in West Africa, who have lived in the areas covered by the disease, do not consider themselves safe from it for several years after leaving it. Among Negroes the only external clinical scler. of the disease is the swelling of the slands in back of the neck among whites and mulattoes. In some cases the infection is the irregular and intermittent fever. In some cases the temperature is normal in the morning but rises to 101 in the evening, thus differing from malaria in which does the temperature rises in the morning. Breath comes quietly there is slight sweating, the pulses rises to 90 and 140 The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, May 11, 1929 a minute. There is frequent headache, puffiness of face, enlargement of spleen, pain in back and feet, and discolored patches appear on the face, trunk or limbs. The heart grows increasingly irritable; activity and intelligence give place to laziness, apathy and dullness; the face loses its brightness and mobility the ear lilies droop and drag; the muscles around the mouth and nose become flabby and flaccid; the patient becomes drowsy and when asked a question replies only after a long interval. Tremors of the tongue and shaking of the hands go on at all times and increase greatly whenever the victim moves. Soon there come convulsions as in epilepsy. The intellectual faculties become dulled and impaired and the patient understands only with great difficulty. The sufferer in this stage cries without any reason whatsoever and falls asleep in any attitude or position. The first stage of the disease. in which there are swellings and fever, lacts sometimes for several years, but takes longer to recover. The nervous tremors, loss of intelligence and anaemia lacts from four to 8 months. Then the sufferers fall deeper and deeper into sleep and never wake up. Wearily these unfortunate drag themselves around the body, relieves them of their heavy burden. SPREAD BY TSETSE FLY "Sleeping sickness" is a parasitic germ disease. There are many species of this germ. It is so minute that it can only be seen with the aid of a very powerful microscope. The species which attacks animals was discovered in Grubby in 1847. In 1880 Griffith Evans found it in horses in India. In 1895 Surgeon-Major (afterward Dr) David Bruce found a germ similar to Evans in cases of what was known in cattle as "selset-fly disease." In 1923 Dr Castelain found the germ in the cattle. In 1930 Dr Castelain called "sleeping sickness." In June 1907, an international conference was held by scientists in London to organize research on the subject. Something had to be done. Thousands of Negroes and Caucasians in Africa were being treated by scientists were mounting to alarming figures. In some districts of quatorial Africa there were so many sufferers that practically all work had to be suspended. At this conference Lord Fitzmaurice, a famous British surgeon, said that sleeping sickness caused the disease by the parasite was conveyed by the tsete fly. This germ is roughly-spindle shaped and inhabits mud and water, however, live in an organism can, however, live in an organism can not only it can live, but it can multiply. When the germ enters the blood stream it darts about rapidly to particles and shows corpuscles or particles in its center is a red spot, while a of the United States. How, then, is the deadly parasite injected into the bloodstreams of thousands of suiciding Americans? How has this black man's disease invaded the land of white men? These are the questions scientists are asking themselves. As yet they have found no answer. They can merely treat the disease with powerful compounds. Modern medicine, however, must find a way to prevent as well as cure the mannequin that is threatening America, or the disease may become as epidemic as tuberculosis or influenza. Certainly scientists are puzzled, and the layman can only wonder if, perhaps, this spread of "sleeping sickness" in the United States will become as nation-wide as it has in Africa.

The manner of becoming infected with this virulent parasite is indirect; that is to say, a human or an animal cannot get infected without the agency of some blood-sucking fly like the tsetse. Now there are eight species of tsetse that carry the germ. It is somber in color and is about a quarter of an inch long. It affects a belt from ten to thirty yards broad along the banks bounding water shaded by scrub and underbrush. It may, however, be carried 30 yards by an animal or human being it has attacked. It is restricted to areas with dense jungle, Africa, and thrives on the blood of healthy human beings.

PAUL, WINS 18-10 TOUGH LUCK, EDDIE, you got a bad break but you didn't grumble, and stuck it out like the regular fellow that you are. Eddie, of course, is none other than Eddie (Shiek) Gardner of Seattle, Washington, who, on Saturday was forced out of C. C. Pyle's coast-to-coast marathon, at Muskogee, Oklahoma, because of a pulished injury. Gardner, who last year finished in eighth place, despite a leg injury, had made a brilliant showing in this year's race, setting a world's record for 25 miles on the first lap from New York City to Elizabeth, N. J. He had led the runners for a large number of races, and a tendon in his leg began giving him trouble two weeks ago. In spite of the pain, Gardner continued to run, refusing to listen to his trainer's plea to stop before he brought more serious injury, upon himself. Finally he temporarily withdrew to have a physician attend his腿 and then RE-ENTERED. Gardner, who had made a large mistake, the flucky little runner to continue the grind and he was forced to drop out after having covered practically one-half of the distance to the goal. While Gardner has missed the big cash prize that awaits the winner (and he had set his heart on it), he has the satisfaction of knowing that he is not disappointed in him. "We do not think that Gardner's achievement should go unnoticed, and if in order, advocate that a purse for the plucky runner be made up from sport lovers all over the country and sent to Gardner in care of his alma mater, Tuskegee Institute. G THERE WERE OTHER THINGS that prevented our joining the band of fans and writers who have expressed their disapproval—some their disgust—of the 1928 tennis ratings, as issued recently. The press of other duties and space limitations would have No less a personage than our good friend Edgar G. Brown, thrice champion and present national singles titleholder, strokes his Remington, now in wain, now in glee, at golf and tennis, has been a great teacher of what should be a strictly business- and non-patriotic affair. But listen, hear us the champion, as he says: "Words cannot express my disgust for a system of rating which results in such hodge-podge as released last week by the American Tennis association. It was not for its generally recognized and traditional social partiality, which is always rather nicely embellished by a perfectly amazing absence of conversance with the first principles of lawn tennis. Suffice to mention the dominance of rating Ted Thompson twice in the 1929 tournament at Bordenton last August, and a week before a semi-finalist in the New York state, as seventh for 1928 and below such local "champs" as Prof. Lester Granger, E. D. Downing, D.D.S., and Sylvester Smith. D.D.S. was once one of the champions of the National by Allison Dams, an unknown in tennis annuals. Graham of Cleveland, who is certainly going to be plenty of trouble in the 1929 tournament, and who gave Dick Hammond was looking for, was rated in ninth place while Elwood Downing and Lester B. Granger, both honorable men, are rated fourth and sixth, respectively, AHEAD of Ted Thompson, who is given seventh ranking. We saw Graham play and let us tell you right here, that the Cleveland boy deserves to be rated. Ted Thompson is given a tough break by having second-raters placed above him and there are other faux pas that have been committed in this unfortunate job of rating, which is not possible for the compilation, we are forced to admit that they might have spent their time more profitably playing tiddewinks or what have you. Mr. Brown, following out the law of compensation, offers the learned tennis scholar, Eliminating himself, the compilation, to offer the following. "First, Ted Thompson, New York; second, C. W. Lewis, Texas (Prairie View college); third, Eyre Saitch, New York; fourth, Reginald Weir, New York college; fifth, Graham, Ohio; sixth, Richard Huddl, Missouri; eighth, Douglas Turner, Illinois university; ninth, John L. McGriff, Virginia; ninth, S. Duncan, Indiana; eleventh, Allison Davis, Hampton Institute; 12th, Alfred Walker, Maryland (Baltimore H. S.); 13th, C. W. Furlonge, North Carolina; 14th, Mike the Receiver, North Carolina, H. S." Whether you care for the revised list or have one of your own, I wager my red flannels that there are few tennis followers who will find the A.T.A. list to their liking, in toto. But, name any list of "all-stars" in any sport, and you no longer put in that list if it is in the kingdom where there is something put in the Danish kingdom when the squawk is countrywide, loud and long. THE FANS HOWLED at Maryland Park, Sunday afternoon, when, after having their appetites whetted for a tasty baseball dish, they found the table bare. Of saying that the calling off of the Hildale-Black Sox game last Sunday was certainly no coup detat, Shortly after the game had been called, because of a shower, the sun was shining brightly and fans, by the carload, were pouring into the park. At that time, however, half of the Hildale team was on its way back to Darby. No Black Sox players were in We were on the grounds and saw at least 1500 to 2000 fans turn back disappointedly. Games have been played on the Maryland Park field of days worse than last Sunday; fans who saw our game at least 1500 fans turn back at LEAST ONE GAME COULD HAVE BEEN PLAYED EASILY. SUNDAY. The condition of the grounds warranted an end to the opening of the season here, and the local roots a chance to see their favorites in action against a league opponent. Of course there are matters of tain insurance, may complicate matters—things about which the fans have no knowledge. Sullivan insists that a whole team should not have informed the city of their desire to play Rissier as we do, it is not very likely that such a dumb trick will be pulled again. Even Baltimore fans draw the line somewhere.

He has not run in any meets because of a leg injury received while playing high school football in Wilmington. However, he will be in the 4A-4, and should be closely watched by members of our race."

C. — (CNS.) Congressman Emanuel Celler, Democrat of New York, has introduced a measure to repeal the Act of Jul 31, 1912 prohibiting the importation and interstate transportation of films or public representations of prize fights. The law was enacted to prevent the showing of the Johnson-Jeffries case. Like the Mann white slave act, which was introduced to fit Johnson's case and make a violator of the law, this statute has served its purpose, and he will go into the discard, Mr. Celler said.

BY MILFORD CRAIG WASHINGTON, D.C. — When the Afro published the news that gloom surrounded the track team of Howard University, certain tribes were skeptical, but now that the board of athletic control has cancelled all athletic games for the spring quarter. Although the reason given for cancellation was the track and field meet was lack of funds, yet it 'can open secret on the campus of the university that inability to secure the team coach was the fundamental reason. Butler Makes a Hit shirts When he leaked out that the track coach, who was incidentally the acting physical director, was uninterested and incompetent to coach Brace Hatcher, a U. of Michigan Bill Hatcher, former A. U. of Michigan champion, volunteered to sacrifice his time to aid in whipping the tracksters into shape, and reported to him and flocked to his side for tutelars, and within a few days he had his hand full with over fifty clinder joggers. Bill made a hit with the boys in the blue suit as the clinder coach did; but put on his running togs and won the esteem and admiration of the athletes and the student body as a wizard. Penn Relays a Flasco At this time students were now becoming interested in track athletics and the boys, the more veterans and freshmen came out for the Penn Relays try-outs. Bill thus made the impossible possible, by building up a strong team in the medians of straight relays. Simultaneously with this new lifes in track, the Washington evening paired with the Mason-Dixon school south of the Mason-Dixon line to draw the pole in the Penn Relays against Colgate Bucknell, LaSalle Springfield. When the pole was approached by the APRO reporter, he intimated that because the university had not made with the four fittings of the race run 58 seconds which would have assured them of a place in the race since Colgate the winner, did not have in the relays to any great extent. Students Demand Refund of Fee Engaged as a cluster of students over the campus, vehemently denouncing the athletic fathers, and demanded a refund of the athletic fee paid by them. They charged the Student Council as being aseeb and denounced the indication of moral integrity of "light skins" when they are expelled from the university. They also blindly charged the board of athletic control with favoring football and basketball with most-season games against sports officials. All Athletic Candidates. Consequently in unquivocal language the department of physical education officially announced that all athletics were cancelled for the spring quarter and intimated to the AFRO that baseball might be held.

Dear Pansy: The weather has been so oscene for the past month that the social clubs have been closing at their closing time. The Pimlico races brought forth the usual twined coat, tailored suit and here and there, a pair of jeans. All sorts of pleasing spring garb, which has been the rage. Popular Conservative Civile League Flower Mart on the 29th will soon be here with all its regalia and already a distinguished list of sub-debs, debbies and young matrons have lined their names to On Gate Crashing Turning to a rather unpleasant subject, Pansy, society folks are trying to think of some way to keep non-invited guests out of their formal social functions. At the L.L.L. dawn dance, a lady and a high school teacher, at that, accepted an invite from the boy friend who was invited. It is becoming the custom for half the folks to leave admittance cards at home, while a half a dozen or more just walk boldly up, even with a register at the entrance, a number will walk past as if it did not exist. A club invitation, unless otherwise stated, means come unaccompanied and yet the gents will, hunt up a girl friend—and so there, we are—somebody present not wanted or an uneven number and with an unpleasant atmosphere. This has happened at the three most recent formal dances and a way must be solved to prevent people from coming in that are not listed. One or two embarrassments would no doubt help solve the question. Israeli Williams, Pansy, had one of the niftest card parties on last Tuesday evening at her home, 1908 Madison Avenue, that you have ever witnessed. She entertained the Entire Nous and Aurora Clubs jointly and quite a number of extra guests, which, with such a sociable gathering, made her party a huge success. With Israeli's personality, she couldn't help from being a charming hostess. The unique and tasty color scheme carried out the entire evening—the way in which she directed the changing of partners during the games of bridge-her beautiful prizes, followed by a most unusual feed, marked one of the previest card parties of the week. Porries, the winners were, Florence Gloster and Theresa Waters, for first, and second guest prizes. Marian Ginn and Euzenic Williams wore the Aurora Club winners, while for the Entire Nous, Ruth Thompson and Ida Berry were the lucky ones. Martha Harmon was given the consolation prize. The hostess had besides the two club members, Ivy Boone, Viola Wilson, Edith Biddle, Lillian Stewart, Fiddy Williams, Ethel Waters, Camille Levy, Anne Smith, Florence Gloster, Theresa Waters, Lois Macbeeth, Almira Tibbs, Bernaine Bond and Sarah Pernandis. Week-End Parties The We Uni. Pansy, are giving a very Friday evening. There are planning a number of unusual features for their event, the same evening, Mr. and Mrs. Irving Hughes are celebrating at a wedding reception at Odd Fellows' Hall No. 1000. They are celebrating off, then, daring, the Thames down at Sparrows Point are giving dance, also on Friday evening. From their invitations, its going to be some swallow affair, Ply, though, the same evenings. By the way, I heard the other day, cirrh, that the LLL. Bridge Club intend to dance, so befores, keep off its the credit belongs to them. I put on a dandy card jumper and dance prior to the dawn dance on Saturday morning. The LLL Bridge Club unites a large crowd of dancers. Thulma Johnson stained a pretty party as her home on Saturday night to honor the late Thulma Johnson, a courage to stand the dawn formal dance.

L.L.L.'s 'Dawn Dance' Sets Season's Novelty Pace Here Baltimore society was entertained at its first "Dawn Dance," at Odd Fellows. Hall last Saturday morning from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the L.L.L. Bridge Club was hostesses to more than 200 persons at the season's novelty. Guests came from Philadelphia, Wilmington, Washington, Pittsburgh and Annapolis. Baltimore's elite have seen many 'after' affairs and know something about the "wee" hours but the audacious novelty of the peppy affair given by these ladies will illuminate as one of the events of the season. The hall was transformed for this occasion into a floral forest with stately pains and fern banks at the back, and a forest behind which truing Hughes' orchestra played such music as only Irving Hughes can suspend. Suspended above this stage forest hung an improvised organ, and the woodwork she shed its light on the brilliantly owned assembly. The lighting effect, diffused and soft, gave the appearance of a suspended dawn to make dreamy atmosphere, and as if anticipating this, the female attire reacted in brilliant and soft colors. The members danced to make dreamy shades organic frocks in pastel shades with tight bodices and full skirts. The only trimming was a front panel extending from the back, and the flower-like pots made from material of each girl's dress. A petaled flower also adorned the shoulder and satin slippers to match each frock composition. The Dawn Dance, hereafter, will be synonymous with the LLL's as they say they will make it an annual affair. Exactly at sunrise, the orchestra played its music. And by the way, not one of the least of the thrills was the novelty of having the real sun take the places of the electric one as the morning dancers emerged to find the unusual sense of leaving a dance at daybreak.

HOPES FOR RACE CONSTABLES GO GLIMMERING HOPES FOR RACE CONSTABLES GO GLIMMERING Death of Councilman Rollins Breaks Republican Hold on Body. TARDINESS BLAMED Republican Members Halted Deal too Long, Friends Say. Death reached down its hand and snatched a chance to have appointed a number of race con- stables in the People's Court have last week when Howard M. Roll- ins. Republican of the Fifth Disti- trict was slaughtered suddenly, thus breaking the slender advantage of his colleagues in the First Branch City Council. With the stage all set and the deal practically closed, the measure which would have given the group four, if not five, officials in the court, was to have gone before the body Monday night. But with the fourth Republican member, the jest that the Republicans hope now to block the Democratic control of the body and the loss of all future appointments. Tardiness Blamed Several of the leaders blame the tardiness of some of the Republican members for the loss of the constables. They point out that several weeks' delay had been caused by the unwillingness of some of the members to agree to the state. A number of applicants, even in the Fourth District, made it difficult to decide upon a slate. Emerson Hopeless Councilman Emerson is of the opinion that the best thing which can be done is to halt a clean sweep of present advantage in the case. The Democratic members knew that the measure intended to make a clean sweep and now they have the broom themselves. The new condition may effect a re-organization of the council at the first chance and will certainly effect future committee appointments. The Republicans, Emerson thinks, lost their chance by tardiness. CHARMING MATRON Afro Photo Mrs. Rooert C.
