MRS. DEPRIEST ATTENDS THE WHITE HOUSE RECEPTION
PASTOR GUILTY OF PATERNITY
PHILLY IS DEAD DEPRIEST TELLS 5000 IN CAMDEN
Mayor and N. J. Congressman at Bridge to Welcome Chicagoan.
PARADE IS FIRST
DePriest Tells Throng Why Chicago Gave Him Welcome.
'By BERNICE DUTRIEUILLE PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Great was the ovation given Congressman Oscar DePriest, guest speaker at New Convention hall, Camden, N. J., by five thousand and people clamoring to see and hear him.
So very marked was the tribute that Mr. DePriest was visibly affected by it and remarked that he was just ending a tour which included Tuskegee, Boston, Memphis, Sainte-Halle, Atlanta, Louisville, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Chicago, Pittsburgh, and now Camden, and "This is the largest demonstration that I have had in any city outside of my hometown Chicago, and in some respects you excite them."
Rap Quaker City's Lethargy "I was in your suburban city of Chicago sometime ago, where I found the people not only alike, but actually dead. In fact there is only one live spot in the state of Pennsylvania, and that's the city of Pitts-
I want to congratulate you not only on this fine evidence of your appreciation of what I am trying to do at Washington, but upon your thoughtfulness in bringing people from adjacent counties to your state, and especially some of those—dead Philadelphiaans.
Pseudohumanity Introduces His National Educational Program
After the audience had given its apology to this somewhat unexpected but doubtless justifiable onslaught, Mr Deforest continued:
"I'm engaged in an educational program, and you help my help. I must just be by myself. I'm there in Washington to learn and understand just what are our rights under the Constitution and you can depend upon me, if you do your part to help me over this program of education which will not only be of benefit to yourselves, your children and future generations."
Newspapers Too Eager To Distort Mr. DePriest concluded his eloquent address with an admonition to the intelligence and lay minds to disregard distorted reports by daily newspaper correspondents as his treatment by his central colony politician Ruth Martin has all absorbing topic so much harped upon, and of such apparently treasonous concern to the scribes and readers, the Congressman merely stated: "The gentleman in Washington treats me as a gentleman," and added that he was his himoe was there he would do his humane merit and retain the respec of all.
Rev. R. A. Jackson, rector of St. Augustine Protestant Episcopal Church, Camden presided.
Philadelphia Motorcycle Squad and Camden Dellegates Act As Report Through the courtesy of Director Laughlin of Director motorcycle squad was detailed to escort Mr. DePriest and his party, who were met at West Philadelphia station by a committee from Camden, to the Delaware River Bridge where they were greeted by General William G. Price, mayor of Camden County; Charles A. Weil, the first congressional district of city and county officials.
An overwhelming reception was given the amazed and rugged politician. The masses of citizens and officials paraded thrue the streets headed the three bands one of which the jungle lauded Quaker. Band boy scouts Army veterans, Elks and other fraternal organizations in full regalia.
Wolterton Introduces DePriest
After the Mayor had made his welcome address, Conerressman Charles A. Verterton introduced the principal speaker of the day, to the eager three racked into the Convention Hall.
"Canden County, the district which I have the honor to represent, in Washington, honors itself by this spontaneous greeting to my colleague, Bon Oscar DePriest, of Illinois.
"Mr. DePriest," observed Mr. Wolterton, "tithes what I regard at the most valuable asset in public life—useful education."
"From early manhood his life has been engaged in promoting not only the welfare of his own racial group, but of others."
Fetes Visitor
In the middle, between three and four hundred people assembled around the banquet table at the Walt Whitman Hotel, Mr. Charles Polk acted as the hostmaster for the occasion. Among those present were noted R. E. Park, social secretary to DePriest; R. S. Branwyn secretary to the Mayor of Lawnside; Madame V. V. Macleish, J. G. Browne Prof. Malachi Cornish, Mrs. M. V. Cerveny of the Women's Advisory League of the South Jersey Republican League, and Magistrate Edward W. Reny.

"You induced this woman to live with you in this improper relationship. You pulled her down to a low, common level of people we don't like to talk about. This act of yours was a most unmanly, indecent and outrageous act. Your idea from the start was one of low, contemptible, animal passion which you were determined to satisfy." Whether or not the judge was motivated by prejudice in his remarks to Alec and whether or not the couple will decide to write "finis" to their love chapter, remains to be seen.

COUNCILMAN TO HEAR FATE ON JUNE 18
"Tom" Fleming Fighting Two Year Term For Bribery
CLEVELAND—Whether or not ex-councilman "Tom" Fleming will serve a two year or more term in the Ohio pentenitary will probably be decided when his case comes up on appeal here June 18th.
Fleming was convicted of accepting a $200 brib from Walter Oehme, white cop whose appeal for pensions wasOkayed by the council.
Judges from Springfield and Dayton will sit at the hearing Tuesday.
PHILADELPHIA-Alexander Ellis, chauffeur and handy man, faces two charges and his former employer and sweetheart, Alice Kneece, white, is now a maid in a wealthy local family.
Thus ends their elopement in a Chevrolet car from Augusta, Georgia, where Alice deserved her ex-soldier husband, who had kept a diet of milk and bread, and threatened to kill her. With them was her three-year-old, child.
"Alec is under $600 bail for bringing a girl to Pennsylvania for immoral purposes, and $300 bail for living with her in their love nest.
"You said you would be willing to marry this man," said Judge Gorman. Are you still willing?
"Yes," answered Alice.
"Would you leave Ellis if it meant happiness for your child's sake?"
"Yes. I would," answered Alice.
She then told how she toured the tenements in Philadelphia and finally left her child to board with a Negro family on Eleventh street, near Parrish.

"Don't you love your child?" asked the judge.
"Better than my own life," answered the mother.

Chicagoan Assails DePriest for Absence from Capitol

Mrs. J. R. Williams Awarded Decree in Washington Thursday.
BIGAMY ALLEGED
WASHINGTON, D. C. Mrs. Capitola Williams, pretty Freedmen's hospital stenographer, was awarded an interlocutory decree of annulment of her marriage to John R. Williams, former Baltimorean, living at 1816 S street, northwest, by Justice Jennings Bailey in equity court last Thursday.
Mrs. Williams claimed that "Johnnie," had deceived her in representing that he was legally divorced from his former wife, Mrs. Frances Starks Williams.
Two weeks after they had gone through a marriage ceremony at Rockville, Md., a divorce decree that Johnnie had obtained in the district court of Wyandotte, Kans., was set aside, Mrs. Williams asserted, Johnnie withheld knowledge of the action of the Kansas court from her. Mrs. Williams said, and permitt'd her to go on living with him as his wife until she discovered among his papers the decree setting aside his divorce.
The defense contended that "Johnnie" first wife had been granted a divorce in Detroit, Mich., May 17, 1923, after his divorce had been set aside, and that the second marriage was validated. This defense was rejected by the court.
Mrs. Williams was awarded custody of a minor child, John R. Williams Jr., aged 5 years.

Mr. Williams claims wife number two wants a divorce in order to marry Dr. I. Buford Horn. Everything in their married life was lovely. Mr Williams said, until he suffered business reverses.

W. T. Crockett Worked His Way Through Morgan in Early Days.
HAWAII IS HOME NOW
Fame and Fortune Earned in Pacific Isle.
(Picture on Page 10)
W. T. Crockett, one-time Baltimore errand boy, came back to the city after an absence of nearly 46 years, laden with fame and fortune.
Like the story book hero, he worked his way through Morgan College, sought a career in the West, and in the far off Hawaiian Island of Maui, and arose to distinguished citizenship as a U.S. judge.*
Speaking before the AFRO Club, Saturday, Judge Crockett said he considered this the high point of his life to be able to come back to the scene of his humble beginnings.
At Morgan College, he was the school-mate of George Gilbert, the late Joseph Lockerman, W. Ashleigh Hawkins, George McMechen, Bishop W. Samson Brooks and Bishop M. W. Clair.
Between the judge and Mr. Lockerman, there was intense rivalry for first honors. In the last semester Judge Crockett won, but Mr. Lockerman was elevated to the Morgan faculty.
The judge is a graduate of the Michigan University law school in the class which also graduated Dr. C. H. Fowler, in medicine. In his early Hawaiian days, Judge Crockett said he laughed at the Chinese custom of placing rice and chicken on the graves of the newly buried dead. "Do you think the dead can come back to eat this food?" he asked one Chinese.
"Well," was the reply, "you place flowers on the graves of your dead. Do you think they can come back to smell them?" Prejudice Prejudice of white Americans has reached Hawaii, the Judge said. Natives are combating it by barring whites from their social functions wherever possible. Judge Crockett was guest of honor at a banquet with James A. Cobb, of Washington, Thursday. Hosts were local members of the Bar Association.
Morgan College gave him an honorary degree of Doctor of Law. He lived in the city he met the guest of his ex-scholmate, George D. Gilbert.

sails DePriest from Capitol
tenth year. He knew that no measure of more importance to the 12,000,000 colored people of the United States would come before Congress during his term of office, than the reapportionment-census bill, but when the vote was taken, Mr. DePriest was in Chicago announcing his candidacy for re-election as delegate to the Elks' convention instead of being, for his seat in the House, for the interests of his people and voicing their hopes, desires and demands, for justice.
"I am willing to concede that Mr. DePriest, a new member, could not command the influence of Representative Tinkham, an experienced and influential member and staunch Republican, but Mr. DePriest could have been in his seat and given his vote to assist Mr. Tinkham and if necessary, lifted his voice in a plea for justice for his people based upon the plain letter of the Constitution of our country.
EXPLANATION.
"Mr. DePriest owes some explanation to the voters of his district Congress, had not been in session a month before we read of Mr. DePriest making speeches in the south east and west, but we read nor hear of nothing that he has said in Congress where such questions as disfranchisement, jim-crow cars peonage, and involuntary servitude must be considered and corrected or such edits continue to exist."

Slander Proceedings Follow Guilty Plea in Paternity Case.
SPARTANBURG, S.C. (Special to the AFRO-American) — Declaring that previous to the trial in which he had pleaded guilty and been fined $600 on her paternity charge, he had stated that the baby's father was white, Miss Malissa Preston, exschool teacher, has instituted a suit for damage against the Rev. J. W. Colman, pastor of the Majority Baptist church, the city's oldest congregation.
The damage. suit adds another chapter to the ministerial triangle in which Miss Preston returned from New York last February with a seven weeks old baby boy and fled a paternity suit against him.
BARES LOVE AFFAIR.
She admitted that she had decided to come back and lay bare her love story when she learned that he was about to take another bride into the parsonage. Upon advice of her attorneys, she decided the case left the Mr. Colman. At the recent trial the Rev. Mr. Colman, by agreement of attorneys made a guilty plea and was fined $600.
Previous to this, he made a statement, she says, in which he declared that a white man was the father of the baby boy. Determined, she said, to win vindication, she has gone back into court to fight the aspiration made by Rev. Mr. Colman. Miss Preston and girl she graduated from Hampton in 1915 and taught for seven years in the Dean school. It was during this period and while she was a worker in the Majority Baptist church, that she came to know the Rev. Mr. Colman, who is pastor of the church.
She stated that she had been induced to become friendly with him that he had promised to marry her. However, when he failed to further provide for her in New York and she learned of his plans to wed another, she came back and started proceedings.

CRAMPTON REPLIES
WASHINGTON, D. C. Representative Oscar De Priest, Republican, of Illinois, the lone colored member of the House, participated in his first debate last Friday, when the House had under consideration by unanimous consent a resolution amending an appropriation for the construction and equipment of a consolidated day school within the Turtle Mountain Indian reservation in North Dakota.
"Mr. Speaker, reserving the right to be present while write the language in the bill is 'white children.' Are there any black children in that territory there?"
Representative Louis G. Cramton Reporter of Michigan, in charge of the bill, replied, "I think not. I have not heard of any."
NON-INDIANS
"It simply means non-Indians," Interposed Representative John Q. Tilson. Republican of Connecticut the majority leader, said what it says," argued Mr. DePriest. "I never heard of any," replied Mr. Cramton. "I was up there and sure as he said on us there are people that get pretty dark."
"I know, and there are a lot of hard-core people," I said. "but because of the way in which the bill reads I have reserved the right to object, and I do ob-
SUGGESTION.
Mr. Cramton asked him to withhold his objection for a moment. "Let me make this suggestion: demonstrate the importance of this House," ht declared, "including the gentleman from Illinois, who has taken a more active interest in education or the Negro community, in the handling of appropriations for Howard University for the last nine years. Year year I have battled for that appropriation, and I have confirmed of that very easily. "There is no discrimination here.

"To the best of the gentleman's knowledge there are none there," Mr. DePriest added. "He been there," explained Mr. Bamton, "and I have made an investigation of the situation there. I went there for that purpose. If the gentleman finds there are any Negroes there, they will be taken

"Mr. Speaker," said Mr. DePriest, ending the debate. "that is assurance enough for me. I withdraw the objection."

REP. TINKHAM'S AMENDMENT IS LOST
Plan to Cut Dixie's Representation in Congress Stricken Out.
DePRIEST ABSENT
House Leaders Accused of Strong-Arm Methods.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Tinkham amendment providing for the reduction of representation in proportion to the disfranchisement of Negroes in southern states with the Hoch alien exclusion amendment was stricken from the census-reapportionment bill just before that measure passed the House last Thursday.
Majority Leader John Q. Tilson, of Connecticut, offered an amendment to strike from the bill both the Tinkham and the Hoch amendments and substitute substantially the original text. The amendment of Mr. Tilson was adopted by a vote of 212 to 129, after a bitter 3 day wangle in which Tilson and Speaker Longworth were accused of voting illegally. Points of order were made against the Tilson amendment on the ground that it would effect legislation by indirection that cannot be effected by direction. Representative Johnson of Illinois, presiding, ruled that the amendment was in order and members of the House were kept from voting separately on the Tinkham and Hoch amendments.
The Amendment
The Tinkham amendment provided that citizens over 21 years of age and those under 21 years of age and state elections has been denied or abridged except for rebellion or other crime shall be excluded from the count upon which the reapportionment of Representatives is to be
It was offered by Representative George Holden Tinkham, Republican, of Massachusetts, who since his commission, the enforcement of the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution by the reduction of representation in proportion to disfranchisement, Mr. DePriest was absent when the vote was taken on the striking out of the Tinkham amendment and the substitution of the original text of the Constitution, he was in Chicago where he was feted June 2nd. His absence caused considerable comment about the Capitol.

BALTO CO. DEFIES BIG PARENTS GROUP
BALTO CO. DEFIES BIG PARENTS GROUP
County Has Largest Body of
TEACHERS AFFECTED
No Positions for Home Folk
TOWSON, MD.—In defying the demands of the parents of Baltimore County for high school training for elementary graduates, a direct insult at the largest group of organized parents in the state and putting a low premium on the rights of the citizens of that commonwealth.
There were parent-teacher associations in 343 colored schools throughout the state, according to a report by the state Board of Education of which number Baltimore County was the only one in which every school was represented.
Cecil County on the other extreme had but one parent-teacher association and that county provides a high school
Others Provide
During 1928 there were 14 high schools operated for colored children throughout the state with counties not nearly as wealthy as Baltimore County, primarily with nearly as much pressure being brought to bear for their inauguration. While the state authorities of Baltimore County are the highest high school, the state is not wholly blameless because the state authorities have made no effort to insist upon a more equal distribution of the funds for the maintenance of these schools. Beside the 14 high schools for colored throughout the state, there are 153 for whites, which reveals that the state takes little or no interest in the equalization of whites.
State Benefits
That the state benefits in more ways than one by the establishment of high schools in every county is apparent by the report of the Bowie Normal School, which is a teacher's school in the elementary schools of the state. High school work at the Bowie Normal School has been discontinued and a four-year course is required before students must be required to meet the requirements must provide this preliminary training if students of that county are to return as teachers.
In 1928, 23.8 per cent of all the male graduates of county high schools entered Bowie Normal School to prepare to teach; 48.0 per cent of all the girl graduates also entered. With no high school training that students enrolled in Baltimore county will be unable to teach in their own homes unless they are trained six years in outside schools at the expense of their parents.

Dr. Viesel Speaker
Taking a moment to baccalaureate address Sunday, "Learning Must Be Insparably Bound up with Life," Dr. Charles Wiesel urged the graduates to come down from the house top and join the men who are calling for their help.
The commencement address was delivered by the Dr. Kellogg, white, editable in the Survey and Survey Graphic. Speaking on "Shuttles of Understanding," Dr. Kellogg, urged a close contact of groups and men. "In his new race consciousness the Negro is digging up his past and searching out even to Africa, the genesis of our tradition," de- Dr Kellogg.
"He is on an adventure in self-expression—not alone in political and economic terms, but in things of the work and spirit. He has had no language barrier; but he has hemmed himself through an entanglement of prejudice and fixed conceptions. He is learning ways of his own to surmount term. He employs winged gifts and shoots across them. He brings song, music, dance, poetry, story-telling, rhythms and color and drama, ardent feeling and drama, a toughness that meets the needs of the hearts no barriers. A song that lifts the spirit with its lil' wings free in the democracy of art. These cultural gifts afford America a new approach to what we have overlong called the race problem. They make for a swifter unrestrained than a multitude of heavy treatises.

CHICAGO, ILL., (Special) — Alonzo Parham has passed all examinations to enter West Point. He is ready for work right now.
Despite his six feet, when Parham called at the office of an AFRO representative Monday, he healed himself and as beautiful as a school girl.
He was born in Georgia and attended school until six years age and thereafter entered Coleman grammar school. Then he went to Wendell Phillips high school where he won recognition as a student of the team. During his last year he was captain of the riffle squad.
Parham admits that he has not had an easy road to travel to college. He is a live and well. He knows what hard work means.
Asked what he thought about the reports of hazing and other tactics at West Point, he said.
“I don’t think it is half as bad as these reports say, and I am determined to make the grade. I will report at West Point July 1st before noon and take up my duties and try to prove a credit to the race I represent and Congresman DePriest through whom my chance was made possible.”
“There ought to be a committee of appointments in the near future so that others may enter these schools.”

AFRO'S MEDAL TO EDGAR LEE AT ARMSTRONG
Presentation Made at Assembly as Climax to Big Celebration.
PELHAM SPEAKER
Coach, Team and Student
, Body Are Lauded.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Armstrong celebrated an overwhelming track victory over Dunbar high school, 52 2-3 to 17 1-3, at a special assembly, Monday.
It was the first Armstrong victory in eleven years.
Robert A. Pelham, of the Capital News Service, at the request of Mr. Carl Murphy of the Afro-American, presented Edgar Lee the Afro-American Medal, which he won '06 April 12, at Baltimore, in the 3.5 mile cross-country run. Lee beat a field of runners from Howard University, Lincoln, Morgan, and Hampton colleges. He set a record of 19 minutes 46 seconds for the course. He is a senior at Armstrong.
In the meet Wednesday of last week, Lee won the half mile and was a member of the winning relay team.
Coach Lawrence Lee, uncle of the athlete who came in for his share of the honors presided at the meeting. Principal David Houston paidribute to the coach, the splendid athlete, the wholesome spirit of the student body.
In pinning the AFRO Medal on Lee, Mr. Pelham said:—
"I have come at the request of the AFRO-AMERICAN to bestow a medal upon one of your memorials, a medal of distinction or Marathon race recently conducted, during National Negro Health Week in Baltimore. "Surely it is not amiss at this time to refer briefly to the first Marathon race, which was run more than two thousand years ago. Historian has paid tribute to the Greek warrior and athlete who was chosen to carry the glad tidings of the Athenian victory at the battle of Marathon back to the city of Athens.
"Running like the wind, Phi-迪普ides, covered the distance of twenty-six miles. It offended the Greek words which mean, Rejoice, we conquer.
"Since then the Marathon race has become a widely recognized athletic feast of physical stamina."
"Today we are to honor one who has distinguished himself for his stamina and endurance among a field of竞赛 students from Harvard University. Morgan College, Lincoln and Viviania Union. "Happily the occasion of the Marathon race was not war. It was instead a 3.6 mile race a feature of a national race among the Races. That it is therefore appropriate one can deny.
Lee Fine Specialmen
"In awarding this medal to Edgar Lee, I am presenting to you a sollenid specimen of our manpower, some of whom typifies all that the Micro Health Movement stands for. Family and student-body both are to be congratulated upon this unusual achievement of one of their number. And you Edgar Lee are to be success already attained, but as a reminder that the FRO-AMERICAN expects you the same exhibition of stamina through your years to come."

HECKLING IN SENATE OVER "CONGO" QUOTA
Rep. Glenn (Rep., Ill.) Wants Reed to Come Clean on National Origins.
GROUP IS EXCLUDED
New Law Would Bar Dark Races in South America.
WASHINGTON, D. C.- Pinning down Senator Reed (Rep., Penn.) to the question as to why he would leave the Negro group out of the National Origins Quotas, Senator Otis Glenn (Rep., Ill.) caused a lively exchange of heckling in the Senate, Thursday.
A running debate caused cc. sidierable laughter as well as sonnishing him. The senator, Senator Reed that the fifteen million Negroes in America should not be included in making out quotas, the grants are admit- this country.
Calls Plan Fair
Senator Glenm challenged the statement of Senator Reed that the plan he favored of admitting all of the racial groups of the present now in office in Negroes Chinese and a few other groups, is "tair."
"The gentleman," he said, "whose letter was just read, ask what plan can be fairer than one which considers and counts every one and every race which the Senator from Pennsylvania seeks, I ask him, why it is that there have been deliberately excluded from consideration and from the count twelve or fifteen million other citizens?" To this question Senator Reed replied, "the good reason that the twelve or fifteen million Negroes of this country do not want to be included. They do not want to have a quota assigned to the Congo, and we do not want one." Glen persisted in pushing the question as to how the Senator from Pennsylvania could say that the act would induce everybody when in fact it left the Negro group out. Senator Reed pointed out. Senator Reed would be advocating a quote to the Congo.
Senator Glenn replied: "I want this: I want the Senator, either to say, 'Our plan counts' everybody, as he has taken after it; I want him to say to the Senate, 'In this national-origns plan we have gone to every country from which any man has come who is here, he is, and we have taken into consideration every man', or I want him to save frankly to the Senate. 'National origins is not national origins. National origins is not national origins.' Let me of the Senator parade his plan as one thing, when in fact it is another."

WASHINGTON, D.C., (C. N. S.)—Mrs. Oscar DePriest was a guest at the White House on the afternoon of June Twelfth, when Mrs. Hoover entertained at one of a series of teas in honor of the wives and relatives of the Congressional group.
Mrs. DePriest wore a charming afternoon ensemble of the loveliest blue georgia. The simple costume was relieved only by a beautiful rhinestone buckle, on the left side of the finely pleated skirt. A coat, the shortest of jackets, completed the ensemble.
She wore a large hat of rosy-gray hair braid, trimmed with a cluster of hand-cut dove-ray veet leaves, and a velvet rose -laced modishly on the underbrim, framed her face with a pleated shear. She carried a velug bag which matched her hat, rosy-gray watermakes slippers and a large pointed fox scarf.
Mrs. DePriest was graciously received both by Mrs. Hoover, and the

Lincoln Athlete Is Harvard
Medical Graduate
Mildrus A. Poindexter, who was a member of the C.I.A.A. first all-American football team in 1923, and a graduate of Lincoln university in 1926, was offered a place in the third year medical class at Harvard, where he entered in 1927. While at Harvard he was awarded three scholarships and took work in parasitology for a few years before beginning his practice, at which time he hopes to enter the field of public health at Durham. He was married to Miss Ruth Viola Gretter of Charlotte, N.
Every Race
Further on the debate Senator Glenn declared: "I said that the Senator has no right to parade as a senator, but that takes into consideration all elements of our people, from whatever country they came-of, whatever race or ethnicity—whatever—that it does not do that. That is all I said about it."
College Heads Urge Ban
It developed during the course of the debate that in a memorial address to the president of the United States, Mr. Bush, the nation's officers including President Lovell, of Harvard, Professor Fisher and other heads, advocated the exclusion of several colored groups from the quotas plan. In this address, they said: "We, the undersigned, all citizens of the United States, in representation of the country of maintaining and perfecting the present system of immigration restriction, respectively submit to the president of the United States, to the Senate, and to the House of Representatives, and to the President, to give away with respect to specific aspects of this question: "We urge the extension of the quota system to all countries of North and South America from which we have substantial and permanent populations is not predominant of the white race.
"We believe that without such extension the present restriction of immigration is already inadequate and will become increasingly so in the future. During each of the last two fiscal years we have been admitting upwards of 75,000 immigrants from Mexico, the West Indies, Brazil and elsewhere, who are, for the most part, no of the white race and who, because of their lower standards of living, are able to compete at an advantage with the American workers in various forms of agricultural and unskilled labor."

God Takes Handin Cleveland Hotel Game, Majestic Wins
BY RALP MATTHEWS
CLEVELAND, Ohio.—There has been a pronounced change in the attitude of the Lord God of Hosts toward the hotel business since that eventful night in Bethlehem when he permitted His only begotten son to be born in a stable because there was no room in the inn of the town.
Here in Cleveland, the new Lord God Congress is in session, Jehovah is decidedly more militant, and not only demands hotel accommodations but, through his worldly representatives, demands
It was looked upon by the local committee as a bit of sacrilege when the Lincoln hotel, located in "Roaring Rock," pretened on weekdays to pretension to plethacy, stretched a sign of welcome across its hypocritical entrance in an effort to lure the children of the Lord within its sinful walls. The church looked arms with the law to prevent a continuance of this misprat
The Lincoln, I understand, gives lodging to the theatrical folk and other soljourners of questionable vocation, association with whom contaminate the sanctified and holy visiting immersionists. Such could
BLESSINGS ON THE MAJESTIC.
The Lord, mighty in his wisdom, through his representatives, however, smiled with approval and placed his blessing upon the Majestic large, room-sized discerning in its selection of guests than its humble competitor. The sign of welcome in front of the Majestic was permitted to remain; and were, in the case of the discerning, the discerners of the Gospel rubbed elbows with booolegers of the corn, corpulent ladies exchanged words with not quite so corpulent ladies who exchanged winks, the men, racketeers and Sunday schoolers, all lit their ears from the same match.
Contact men from both Heaven and Hell crowded into the same elevator, and St. Peter would have stole it to it. It would have sheeped the sheep from the goats because, thanks to the local committee, the Maestie hotel was the choice of Heaven for one week at least and whatever happened there even the angel appeared.
IDEAL CONVENTION CITY.
Cleveland unlike many thriving cities, the ideal convention town. It has a peculiar physical appeal that most urban centers lack. The visitor from Chittilline Switch the visitor from New York feel equally at home because you can walk a dozen blocks in either direction and be in the country or city at will.
It is decidedly easy to acquire a taxi from Taxi drivers meet you at the train and call: "Any part of the city for fifteen cents!" You could take a couple of dollars and become a land baron. In other ways, I never came so near getting a couple of black eyes in my life for refusing to pay a bill. There was no reason for taking these souvenirs free which could buy
Everything was done to make the delegates feel at home. The city commerce commissioner arrived and pedestrians shot down in the street so the folks from Chicago would feel at home. This was impossible because: they could not find any innocent bystanders to be admitted to be in a racket of his own.

of this trial diligently.
PORT - AU - PRINCE, Haiti. — Wild scenes in which Jacques Roumain and a number of his sympathizers were clubbed into insensibility, featured the trial of this 21-year-old editor and his companion, Georges Petit, here recently.
On the day of the trial the court house and surrounding neighborhood gave the appearance of an armed military camp. The palace was surrounded by military forces under the command of American Marine officers, and troops guarded all nearby streets.
In the court itself, U. S. officers were standing armed with revolvers and filled cartridge belts. Among those standing in the court were police Captain Shafer, assistant chief, and Lieutenants Leveque, Steele, Usher and Detro. At each window of the court room were two waiters, immediately behind the judge, an American officer, Belton by name, and a Frenchman, Bonte, were stationed. Bonte is in charge of the Haiti court. It has many cases in a man of mystery. SYMPATIZERS BARRED. In order that too many sympatizers with the young editor might not be present, officers in charge had packed the court room with government employees. Desired their customary reservation. No one was allowed to remain standing and this automatically excluded them. It was done in direct violation of the Penal Code procedure and the Haitian constitution which provides that in the master of press offences, the hearing room to the public without restrictions.
ROUMAIN ELOQUENT.
MOUNTAIN BOOKS
On the stand exhibition exhibited the same enloquence with which he had attracted the masses and gave his reasons for having referred to Bonte as a traitor to Haiti and a tool of American imperialism. It was following his testimony which took the form of an oration and the Monsieur Tristan Chateain that wild scenes of clubbing took place.
EDITOR CLUBBED
As Roumain's sister came forward to congratulate him, the editor extended his arms to greet her. He was immediately seized by the American press and it and hand to hand encounter ensured. Bonte rushed to the fighting couple and attempted to shoot Roumain and was prevented only by an officer by Bonte is then said to have used his club on Roumain's head, blood being spattered within a few feet of the judge's seat.
The editor rushed to his assistance, the entire court went into action, many were severely clubbed before order was restored.
SENTENCE AND FINE.
Both Roumain and Pett were sentenced to five hundred and each fund $1,000 together with the costs of the trial. Their paper, "Le Petit Impartial" has been suppressed. The editors had been confined in prison five months preceding the
OTHERS IMPRISONED.
Following this trial Carl Brouard, another journalist, and representative of an aristocratic Haitian family, testified against the concession of two French priests as bishops. Brouard declares that their appointment is contrary to law, and that the Haitian priests maintain and foster racial prejudice against the Haitian priests who have been systematically denied elevation to the bishopric. These writers still maintain that Bonte is a traitor to Haiti.
RALEIGH, N.C.-L. K. McMillan, former Shaw University teacher and AFRO-AMERICAN representative, and AFRO-AMERICAN representative, held the principal meeting at a City Auditium running day afternoon in protest against Dr. O. S. Bullock, charged by his O. S. Bullock, charged by his stenographer with being the father of the child. Although acquitted, a group of citizens led by the Black Men's Life, Liberty and Happiness Council is raising money to appeal the case. You become rather popular. Numbers of the more intelligent people who at first either opposed the mass meetings the general effort against the pastor saying openly that "It won't be long now." Those who attend the mass meeting orderly, and they stay throughout the meetings, which is a good long time.

3 Baptist Groups at S. S. Congress
CLEVELAND, OHIO—There were three distinct divisions of the Baptist Church in session when the Sunday School Congress convened here last week.
Besides the Sunday School Congress itself the Execive Committee of America and Women's Auxiliary of the same organization met to arrange a program for the monster conclave in convente in Vol. Va. in September.
Due to the serious illness of the Rev. J. E. Woods, president of the
Honor Dead
Impressive memorial services were held for the deceased members of the connection who died during the conference, among others, brought to the conference by Dr. Henry Allen Boyd were Mrs. David E. Over and Mrs. L. Drain of Baltimore and Chicago respectively. They were presented to the conference by the late Mrs. R. H. Boyd, mother of the Baptist leader, who died during the past year, was also memorialized as were the members of the Congress who were killed by death of the Martires Congress. The assemblage, 1800 strong, was thrown into an emotional outburst of enthusiasm. Wednesday night by the Rev. O. Allen, pastor of Norfolk, Va. Women left their seats shouting in reckless abandon and down the isles of the church. The choral club of 100 was almost broken up as members leaped upon the books and casted their specially arranged sheet music to the winds.
The Rev. Mr. Alen, who has traveled extensively as a member of the Mme. Walker's World Tour group, is a longtime national Bantist Convention which will meet in Norfolk in September. The speaker sent the audience into a wild demonstration with his Hog Wagon, a large car that is very good to man until he is killed. A dog can catch rabbits, a cat can keep away the mice, a sheep can give up his wool, and a mule can carry a load, but a horse can carry a load, and a dog can carry a load, and a runt. A lot of people in the church can only grunt, grumble and kick up hell until they are slain by conversion and brought again to Jesus Christ. Before a man can be saved, he has to kill his selfish desires and be resurrected."

gational Ordinance Void.
RICHMOND, VA., (A. N. P.) That Negroes must be permitted to vote in the Democratic primaries was the decision of Judge D. Lawrence Groner of the Federal Court, who ruled that the Virginia Primary Law, which prevented Negroes from voting was unconstitutional in that it violated the 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution of the United States.
Judge Groner rendered his decision here Tuesday in the case of James O. West, Negro democrat, against A. C. Billey and William Boltz, judges, and William Ricker, clerk, the 1st precinct of the ward, who denied West the right to vote.
Equal Rights
In handing down his decision, the judge held that the state may not provide otherwise than for equal rights of suffrage in the primaries elections.
"This the statute does," he said, "and if this was all there would be no ground for complaint, but it goes further and recognizes and enforces the right of a political party to serve as arbitrator forbidden under the 18th Amendment. This the act may not do." Judge Groner said that "a law which recognizes or which authorizes a discriminatory test or standard, with the 14th and 15th Amendments." "Impressed with the importance of the question raised in this case and mindful likewise of the responsibility of its decision. I have given ful thought. I may be able to custom that has long obtained in the political system in effect in this state and therefore meet with disapproval of many is a consequence which, unpleasant to the may, may not be avoided in the performance of the duty, defying on this Court."
The State was given sixty days in which to plead further.
Second Decision
This is the second decision favorable equal rights for Negroes, which Judge Groner has handed down within the past 30 days. A short while ago he declared that the Richmond segregation ordinance was unconstitutional. He was hailed a victory for the Negro property owners of this city.

Says Mr. Davis, the only newspaper which paid any attention to MY speech was the paper for which I MYSELF reported.
He might have given us in official findings made no reference to his address.
The reasons are obvious. Mr. Davis discussed the inefficiency of the land grant colleges, their poverty, the lack of training of their faculties and the fact that one single white college is richer than all of the colored land grant schools combined.
Perhaps that might be news to Mr. Davis, but he pointed out, the same conclusion holds good for colored theological schools or for the entire group of colored colleges.
This criticism must be closer still to Hampton Institute, where Mr. Davis teaches, which has had a student strike, whose president has just resigned at the request of the trustees* and where students at the request of a dozen teachers* are engaged in the work of faculty instruction.
Hampton is one of the wealthiest NEGro schools, but withal hasn't sufficient doctors of philosophy to run a first class educational plant.
Yale has an endowment of $320,000,000. Columbia
bills $69,000,000. Harvard bills $15,000,000. The
represents more wealth than all of the colored schools in the United States.
There is no news in that. It's been true
since the founding of the Republic. The only
new thing about the Republic is that Bill
O'Reilly covered these hidden (2) facts.
By that yardstick the progress of Hampton and every other Negro college has been rapid and significant.
Failure on the part of the press to report Mr. Davies's speech and comment upon it we think, shows how much we could accomplish. One of these days, he will grow up to find himself heartily ashamed of his sophomoric effusions
The Shrine Case
The Supreme Court held last week that the Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, for white persons, by its obvious and long continued neglect was barred from asserting any exclusive right to the name, constitution, emblems, etc. of the Order of the Supreme Court explained that the colored Shriners were imitatively organized after the white order but there was no fraudulent effort made to have anyone believe they were the same order. It was shown that the colored group always held itself distinct and that the imitation was emulation rather than false pretence. For the Order of the Supreme Court knew of the existence of its colored counterpart for thirty years, but stood silent by and did not take any action until 1914 to enjoy it from such imitation. The court decision affects not only some nine thousand Shriners, but also several hundred thousand Elks, Masons, Odd Pellows, Pythians, Woodmen and Reindeer, whose names, insignia, etc., are imitative of white frateral orders. The decision of the court means that all of these colored frateral organizations will not be put to the pains and expense of securing new names, titles, insignia, rituals, etc. For this they have to thank the good will of the Supreme Court, who have not only welcomed but assisted the organizations of color brethren, for nearly a century.
Had this suit been filed twenty-five years ago there is no doubt that the growth of Negro fraternal orders would have been severely crippled if not completely estopped.
The Spingarn Medal
The award of the 1928 Spirgam Medal to President Mordecal Johnson of Howard University struck a popular chord.
This time last year the award committee was deluged with protests because of its selection of Mr. James W. Cheswitt, novelist, whose best work was done nearly a quarter of a century ago.
Selection of either Dr. Kelly Miller or Dr. R. Moton, each of whom was nominated by a number of friends this year, was probably passed over for this same reason. Dr. Moton, however, has an advantage start for the job. He was an avid reader of the striking new book, "What the Negro Thinks," soon to enter its second edition.
To date, there have appeared but two public criticisms of the committee's choice of Dr. Johnson. They came from Mr. Norman McGhee Cleveland and Mr. George S. Schuyler Pitcher, Pittsburgh. They were nothing superior. In the work of the Howard educator. Mr. McGhee nominated Miss Jane Hunter, under whose direction an $800,000 home for working girls was completed in Cleveland last year.
Dr. Johnson is not only the first Negro president, but also the first president able to secure the recognition of Howard as a government-supported institution.
His administration has secured the interest and cooperation of private philanthropy for the first time. Plans approved by the government and cooperation of private public, contemplate an institution on a scale dreamed of. Eleven Howard teachers have been assured means for advanced study for the doctor's degree by 1931. Dr. Johnson—to use the words of Mr. S. S. Booker—has a new point of view for America. He has generated new hope in the rising generation
through his forceful messages before all races. He has been a daring outspoken champion for righteousness, and his reception by young America is the most hopeful sign today."
**Tinkering**
The census and reapportionment bill passed the House last week without the Tinkham amendment, thereby treating the nation to an insight into our disrespect for law that would be amusing were Congress not our highest law-making body.
In the first place, reapportionment is mandatory upon Congress. The constitution requires it after each decennial disregard the law. Congress has permitted twenty houses without, reapportionment.

In the first place, reapportionment is mandatory upon Congress. The constitution requires it after each decision. Disregarding the decree has permitted twenty years, without reapportionment.
This year Congress apparently decided to mend its way. Representative Hoch (Reilican, Kansas) introduced an amendment to the bill proposing not to count aliens for reappor-
government purpose.
Representative Tinkham (Republican, Massachusetts) introduced an amendment proposing to reduce the representation of the Southern States in which Negroes are not allowed to vote on account of their color.
Mr. Tinkham's amendment is as mandatory as the census itself, but Congress backed Tinkham only so long as necessary to have the Hoch amendment killed. The bill, as finally amended, both amendments.

Mr. Tilson, (Republican, Connecticut) House leader, said the census and apportionment bills were in danger unless the amendments were stricken out. He urged members to lay aside "petty differences" on the "immaterial" amendments and pass the main bill. Representative Crawford, (Republican, New York) made a point that the amendments did not belong in the bill anyhow. Representative Langford (Democrat, Georgia) referred to the Tinkham amendment as "tinkering with the race question." Despite the law and the constitution, Lankford explained, "The Negro is in the minority and can only secure such rights as the white race determines he is worthy to enjoy." Discussions of the Negroes' constitutional rights says Lankford, makes the Negro hate the white race, and Mr. Langford adds blandly, the white race will not under such circumstances "like the Negro." The result of all this debate can be stated in clear terms. To Northerners like Tilson, Negro suffrage is "petty affair" to Southerners like Langford it is a question to disaddlere together as the majority race determines.
Nother the Northern nor the Southern Congressmen are concerned with the law or the constitution, which they have sworn to uphold and defend.
Besides the lawlessness of lynchers, bootlegers, grafters and racketeers, the farger disrespect for law in Congress is appalling. All of them violate the law, but only the frock-coated member of Congress has sworn to obey it. Judge for yourself if the worst lyncher or the busiest bootleger is as big a hypocrite as the average Congressman.

Howard's Honorary Society and Phi Beta Kappa
To the Editor:
Permit me to call attention to an error in the June 1 issue of your paper relative to Kappa Mu Society having qualified for membership in Phi Beta Kappa.
I did not state that Kappa Mu has qualified and is eligible to become Phi: Beta Kappa, but that Kappa Mu sincerely hoped to become Phi Beta Kappa shortly.
Another correction is that the average of admission for Juniors is 90 per cent for three years, and for Seniors 85 per cent for four years.

Rockefeller Couldn't Have Gotten Better Treatment at Garfield Hospital.
To the Editor:
I wish to make mention of a good deed which was performed at the Garfield hospital, where I am working as laboratory man. A few weeks ago Mr. Thomas Pitts was taken in the above named hospital with Meningitis. The doctors, nurses and family did much to see doctors and nurses work so hard to save a human being, except at one time a little colored girl about four years ago at the annex of the same hospital. I think this child died because very few ever get over that disease. The family took turns in giving blood for transfusions. I think he got about 12 or 15 them. I have seen Mr. Mackleford could have been a better treatment, Dr. E. C. Rice and Dr. Nickels did their best to save Pitts, who died May 31.

The inspiring and courageous words were spoken by His African Majesty, King Cetewayo, of the Zuluf, nation, and addressed to the representatives of Her Majesty, Queen Wigwam of gratitude to the author, Mr. J. A. Rogers, who has been broadcasting these historical events through the columns of the AFRO.
Some years ago a western newspaper published by someone ran some pictures and told the life story of a great soldier and statesman, Toussaint L'Ouverture. A correspondent who never heard of so distinguished a character wrote as follows: "I am a college graduate and specialized in history, and I have been a Dartmouth College but I confess I have learned more hirs. y of my own race by reading, the columns of your paper. My white instructors never required me to search for these facts and I doubt if I could have found them and I done so. I have been written with prejudices and not by facts."
Mr. Editor, you will never hear of white professors being required to teach the Negro anything about the gigantic achievements of men of our race, for the simple reason, white institutes are not required to meet the educational needs of white people.
Keep up your illustrated column so as to educate the younger generation not to swallow the lilies of white historians.

Eighteen Dollars Was Amount of Telephone Bill Paid By This Writer to Secure Drawing room for a Sick Wife.
To the Editor: "Pickens Travels" from a recent issue of your paper, was forwarded to me today.
The facts as portrayed by Mr. Pickens are so exaggerated that I think in all fairness to all concerned I must state the facts, since I was hired to make the application for the drawing room and was refused. I called Dr. E. A. Kendall, of Hot Springs, and stated the facts to him. Later I called Dr. E. A. Grant, of St. Louis, and stated with him a very short time, the agent in an hour he called and stated the drawing room had been reserved out of Kansas City for me. The station agent still refused to sell the accommodation and made another call within a very short time, the agent notified me that was O.K. and that 'the services of the Missouri Pacific road were at my command. I did n.t.receive any assistance from the white Episcopal clergyman, and the amount of money spent for telephone calls was about $18.
I am a northern man, but I don't approve of the method used by Mr. Pickens to misrepresent

We, the undersigned committee, representing the County-Wide Parent-Teacher Association of Baltimore County, feel that the examination and the part payment of tuition for the colored children of Baltimore County is unfair and an unjust discrimination.
Since the pupils have completed the course of study as prescribed by the Board of Education, and are entitled to a certificate, why is it necessary to take them under the most challenging condition? If an examination is required and is given to all children alike, let it be along the lines of the work covered during the year, and under the same conditions as provided in By-Law No. 20 of 1920. If the teacher is efficient, and has done the work assigned, then it is a reflection on the teacher not being capable; also on the Board for employing teachers below the standard, to find it necessary to take the children away from the school, and be taught for ten months to be given a new leek.
Then since the schools lack supervision and do not have the latest text books, they are not as intelligent. If these pupils are given the latest text books and equal supervision and are taught little about their passing.
Any number of these same children have failed to pass the examination, yet have gone in high school and made good.
This, we are sure, proves that these examinations are not for our ability.
The State Department of Education in their report (in the Sunpaper, May 8), says that children are kept out of high schools by jack funds for tuition and transportation. The report goes on to say, since the high school is accepted, the children in the school system, there seems to be no justification for charging high school children to ride on the school bus. The democratic principle of equality of educational opportunity would seem to require high school as well as elementary school facilities, within easy reach of children without cost for tuition or transportation.
These conditions hit the colored youth hardest. After years of sacrifice on the part of parents in poor circumstances in our rural districts, they look forward to seeing their boy and give him credit upon his career will do them credit as citizens. When such is the case these parents who have sacrificed so much feel that their efforts have been worth while. This is the ruling of the Board, four years high school tuition, leaving the senior year to be paid by the parent. In many cases the parents are unable to pay this, thus causing the children to be compelled to leave school when their entrance to college or advancement requires a high school diploma. Then too,苦颜于白刃 want only high school or college graduates.
We are sure the Board of Education would not stand in the way of or hamper boy girls progress to college or only allow them with educational facilities for advancement from funds provided from county and state taxes.
People learning of the policy of the Board of Education offer severe criticism. Were these facts made known all probability would be, give the colored youth a chance.

Heywood Broun
To the Editor
Of all the writers filling space in the daily press in the country, Heywood Brown, columnist for Scripps-Booth newspapers, is one whose writings all colored people should read. There are many of his musical in "It, Seems to Me," would give him up because his articles jarred too severely the standardized dendrite mechanism that passes for a functioning brain. Nevertheless, he has written a lot of people. Few American white people care to have Brown's ideas aired.
In expounding upon the privilege of a member of a democracy to differ violently with his own, Brown has written in the News of April 6, he said: "Two beliefs which I hold strongly are not popular. I am against the American political and social attitude toward the colored man. Nor is it fair to pretend that Brown is a liberal. Some disabilities are not present in the North, but enough remain to leave us heavy shareholders in the guilt of tyranny. If race prejudice is American I can only say that my country is wrong."

In expounding upon the privilege of a member of a democracy to differ violently with his neighbor on political or social questions, in the past, strong are not popular. I am against the American political and social attitude toward the colored man. Nor is it fair to pretend that the strong are more important than the strong disabilities are not present in the North, but enough remain to leave us heavy shareholders in the guilt of tyranny. If race prejudice is American can it say that my country is wrong on May 7. In a diatribe against mawkish Christian practices, he levels the shaft of his pen against spite and injustice. He opens that against the strong, and he hurts burden of its major crimes if all the petty injustices of the community might be abolished. Listen to this. In the store across the street I saw a man with a coffee mug of coffee. Roughly, the clerk tells him there is none in stock, and then turns to serve a white customer with the same commodity. And the clerk has the small satisfaction of having humiliated the strong. I cannot see how white supremacy is advanced by half an inch or the rising tide of color damned. The store has lost two customers, and the clerk has the small satisfaction of having humiliated the strong. I cannot bring myself to a belief in any sort of hell, and yet if there were one I'd have it tenanted by the cheap-skate sinners rather than the strong, but by dare to dive head first into bristle than niggle to perdition one tae at a time. . .
Many individual minds of the mass who never read teachings of tolerance in high class literature, are so accustomed to the pen of Broun that helps unletter their souls from the bondage of race prejudice. For this reason we should commend a white man who tells his readers so much of truth that the average newspaper is afraid to print. E. B. HENDERSON. Washington, D. C.

"Just as Mr. Hoover has called upon the American people to face their reproach as the only means of effectively removing it, so our race leadership should call upon the Negro race to face the stigma which gives it an evil reputation in the eyes of its white fellowmen."
The Negro—America's Most Criminal Element.
By KELLY MILLER
President, Hoover, has solemnly warned the people that the United States is the most criminal of the civilized nations of the earth. This statement not only startled the nation, but startled the world by its frankness. We are prone to boast of our moral leadership and to assume the moral monolography over the conscience of mankind. But now the nation Hoover with his Quaker bunniness and makes the nation face the naked truth.
Our schools are full to overwelling, we boast of increasing churchship. The agencies of social and moral betterment are spending money by the millions, and yet the crime wave is on the increase. America stands self-confessed to the wealthiest and most national of the globe. As she wallows in wealth she wakes in wickedness. We have before us the example of Babylon, Nineveh and Tyre. The Roman Empire was destroyed by
Mr. Hoover has essayed the task of a social engineer with calculated purpose to set the nation to rights. He goes about the task by using the social engineer to characterize his profession. First, there must be a survey to determine the nature and cause of prevailing lawlessness before adequate remedy is sought. Finally, the Commission is calculated to serve this preliminary purpose. All true patriots must fall in behind Mr. Hoover in his great moral program.
More Imperfections.
The Negro forms a defined group, which is set apart any other element of the American people. The Negro race has more imperfections of various kinds than any other section of which our population is divided, our performance is easy to account for and to explain. But the bald fact remains. There is more ignorance, poverty and crime among Negroes than among whites,armingly high if we are to credit recorded statistics.
Just as Mr. Hoover has called upon the American people to work together in means of effectively removing it, so our race leadership should call upon the Negro race to face the challenge in the eyes of its white fellow men. Nothing is to be gained by blinking or denying the truth. We stare ugly at us from now direction.
If we turn to statistics, we find that the Negro in the South appears to be two to three times as criminal as white, and they fairly rejoin that the laws are unfair and inquitably enforced. This facto; must be given its proper weight. But on the other hand, when we turn to the Negro newspapers, we find five or six times as criminal as his Southern black brother.
Negro Newspapers.
The Negro newspapers convict the race of criminal propensity in the eyes of their readers, leading weeklies we find their front pages covered over with scandal, sensation and crime; fifty-two editions a year tell the same sordid story. The headlines of murders, burning and debauchery first greet the eye.
the Negro's education, religion and culture seem to have little relation to this propensity to evil deeds, if we are to believe the portrayal of the Negro as debacles his chair leader; the doctor prescribes illegal liquor; the school teacher riots in domestic scandal; the intelligence revel in portraying it all without shame or repugnance; the school teacher now receiving seems to have little or no relation to their moral life. Our churches are boasting of their swollen statistics of membership and finance, but the moral life of the Negro to the moral life of the people. If crime and lax moral ideas are threatening the perpetuity of the American people, as they do to the fact that much more certainly must the Negro people be threatened by undermining moral decay. I would not be an important pestilent, nor yet, as the Negro, much more likely which hides it under the sand in the vain delusion that what the eve does not see the heart need not fear. Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. Full knowledge and acknowledgment are essential to any effective remedy.
Bootlegging.
The crime of bootlegging is a case in point. The Negro is perhaps the most active of all small scale criminals, the little or no scruples against violating the Eighteenth Amendment. This criminal attitude is by no means limited to the man lowest down in the scale of intelligence and standing, not limited to the slums and shady places. The Negro intelligence evinces no great reverence for protection or the protection of the Eighteenth Amendment. Negro ministers, as a general thing, do not preach it from their pulpits. Negro newspapers do not thump up the Negro. Negro educational and religious organizations rarely ever pass resolutions calling on the people to uphold the principle of temperance and the principle of evil. Our refined social circles laugh at it as a joke. Such are some of the plain facts of observation which any one can verify by his own experience. The Negro should first of all be concerned about the enforcement of law and order. He is at once the victim of his perceived victimlessness.
Law and Order
I believe that the first suggestion as to the appointment of a colored man on Mr. Hoover's law enforcement weekly releases. My thought was then, and is now, that the Nero, of all Americans, is or should be chiefly concerned for law and measures that man for law and order. Although we have not as yet perfected a moral pedagogy, still our schools should stress all things thunder from their pulpits that righteousness exalteth and that sin is a reproach unto any people. Our newspapers should stress obedience. The things are essential to the salvation of the race. If Mr. Hoover can tell the American people that the must either obey the law or erish without the law, those who assume to guide the life and destiny of the Nero must ever and anon, the consciousness that the path of sin is the way to death.

General Advice
1. Call a Physician if your child shows signs of a contagious (catching) disease. Be especially on the lookout if you think he has been exposed. The common signs of contagion are:
a. fever; (b) cough, sore throat, or severe head cold; (c) vomiting (in some cases); (d) eruption (rash) of any kind.
2. If one of your children is sick with a contagious disease and another child develops signs, call your physician to see the child as soon as possible. If your child is your duty to call the Health Department because the law requires you to report the case yourself.
3. Never deliberately expose a child to a contagious disease. To do so is not only morally wrong, but is a violation of the law. If caring for a child suffering from a contagious disease, it is your duty as parent not only to give proper attention to the child but also to keep the disease from spreading to other persons.
Week's Poem
IDEAL WOMAN By Wilson Barrett
A woman fair,
For it is a woman's providence to be
fair.
And yet whose beauty is her smallest
No small-clad Amazon with helm
and spear.
Her only shield her native innocence:
Her charm of gentleness is round her head.
The hint of truth is in her gentle eyes.
Her garment the white robe of chastity;
While Charity, of all the virtues queen.
Sits on her brow.
Feathered in well-doing, in sorrow strong;
Healer of wounds, affection's minister.
More good than plious, just a little blind
To mortal weaknesses. A woman born.
Affection not to scorn a woman's fate;
At peace with destiny, her husband's crown.
Cheerful of spirit, empress of her home;
In presence tender and in absence true.
One heart, when traveling life's common way.
Glads every heart and brightens every eye:
One in whose wake the beaten wakes up.
A little greener where her feet have trod.

WASHINGTON — (ANP.) — Until recent years, the post of Register of the Treasury was regarded as one of the few executive appointments for colored men. In the old days it stood at the top of the list. The dignity of the place has grown since the days when the late Woodrow Wilson replaced Bishop Vernon with a white man, for the World War with its bond issues to be registered, brought a large increase in work, personnel and importance greater, greater, being now $8,000. All that remains of its former glory is one section reserved for colored employees with Dr. Alphonso Harris as its chief clerk. The gesture toward keeping the place within the color line when Adam Patterson, Oklahoma lawyer's name was proposed. Nothing came of that feint. Patterson taking himself out of the picture at blind Senator Gore's sug-
When Warren Harding became chief executive, hopes ran high again that the registrieship would be part of the dusky group patronage. An interest in its value led to a color color still goes the rounds here, at the capital.
Cottrill Case
With Mr. Harding, President, everyone naturally taught that Charley Cottill, of Toledo, one of the earliest "hardest men," and closely associated with the Old Orchard Group, be immediately be a member Register, Mr. Cottill trill so too, and quietly informed his friends of his expectation. He had been collector of Port at Honolulu under Taft. Charley came to Washington and was the President. "Glad to see you, Charley," said genial Warren Harding. "I want to do something nice for you, indeed I do."
See Mellon
"You want to be Register of the Treasury, some of the boys tell me. Well, now I tell you, Charley, that place is in the treasury department under Mr. Mellon. Go over and look at him. I tell you, Chat with him and let him get acquainted with you."
Cottrill sped over to the office of the Secretary of the Treasury. Mr. Mellon's secretary proved a stumbling block. In turn, he explained his business. When Charley revealed his mission, the secretary said. "Oh. you don't want to see Mr. Mellon. He has nothing to do with such matters. You want to see one of the men, the ushered Mr. Cottrill in. That worthy assistant talked to him for an hour or so and decided he was the wrong assistant. He said that Mr. Cottrill should see another assistant.
Suspicious
Cottrill was showing a bit suspicious but when he met the second assistant he was gratified to find him a man whom he had met in Hawaii, and who was familiar with his excellent record there. They talked over carefully, getting down the mission at hand.
"Oh, what do you want with that job, Cottill?" said the under secretary. "You can't make any money at it."
"It's not merely a matter of money," returned Charley. "No, you're a man of wealth than Charley. You're the blandishment and half acquainted." Then you simply want the job for honor, because your name will appear on the nation's money." But as to his friend's sincerity, agreed. "Well," said the secretary, "they have passed a bill to take the register's name off the money, so that would be an empty honor, nothing else." Charley, bewildered, was ushered out. He went back to the President.
"Well, Charley, what did Mr. Mellon say?"
"I'm sorry, Charley. I wanted you to see Mellon. He is the stumbling block and his objections must be overcome." Mr. Harding undoubtedly came to Washington with good intentions. But the pressure was too great. The growing influence of the South, ice cream, and the North, coupled with the sentiment in favor of keeping Negroes out of executive places reached him and tied his hands. Cottrell, all of whose ambitions had been centered on the place, died—undoubtedly of a broken heart.
**Coolidge**
So a white man kept it. Coolidge came. Hundreds were now employed where ten were before. White women were. Silent Cal, always credited with the thought that colored folk were doing well enough, talked glowingly of the race's progress with his New England wang and his imminent store for a lie office, he promoted the white register to be treasurer and filled the Register's office with a man from Mellon's state.
**Howover**
Howover in office three months has made no appointments and shows no disposition to make any.

Can't Replace Them; But Guide Them.
When such a body as the National Baptist Sunday School Congress, which met last week in Cleveland, goes on record as banning without reservation dancing, card playing and the theater, setting forth a program to take well-known diversions can but, in earnest, or is that organization deliberately restricting Christianity to the one tenth one percent of the young population it might induce to leave all of these so-called worthless things?
Here in Baltimore and in many cities, we believe, fifty per cent of the younger Sunday School teachers either dance, play cards, or go to the movies.
If the Baptist churches, or any denation for that matter, enforce a strict rule against dance and theatrical or theatre, and excommunicate members taking part in these activities, the church membership of the church would drop at least seventy-five percent. Extremely against social diversion of this kind would be about as enforceable as the prohibition law, only, while the prohibition agent may get the bootstrap modern ministers of the gospel are inclined to do anything radical to young man or woman who live the light fantastic, makes a grand slam at bridge, or enthralls Garbo in a twilight movie show. There is, however, general agreement, that amusements of younger people are getting too far off the floor of the church, but the most foolish of the church would be clamp down on without intelligent study of the problems involved. And still more short-sighted is the man that these things be replaced with milder forms of amusements.
Any form of amusement which would give the young mind sufficient kick to make it attractive and properly supervised. Both the dance and the acted play had their origin in the church ceremony. And while the church cannot with propriety form dancing classes, it can excite its influence to see that the modes of diversion are made fit for Christian young men and women. We have seen young men gamble with che-kers; we have known that the dance is a basis of stable bets; the laudable practice of great prizes in church fairs has caused some young women to sell their souls and bodies. But who would be foolish enough to ban chan舞 if sometimes they are prostituted?
Perhaps one of the most helpful things the great National Baptist Sunday School Congress could be would be to form an earnest execuational program, and no doubt one of the first recommendations it would make would be to erase great theatres in every city where the uncommercialized drama would point bright-minded men and women to lotter death or a preachment which has no highest intention of enforcement, but which winks at amusements established deeply in social custom is about the quickest way to wipe out the respect and esteem it still-minded young would-be Christians.
Our Political Leaders Are "Standing By."
With the exception of the "song" statement of the former Georgia Committeman Benjamin J. Davis, most of us, and a few of us, had little to say about the advent of the Hoover administration.
Congressman DePriest has been busy, of course, and prominent, keep an eye on the big four and lesser satellites which scintillated so brightly during the campaign! In radio parlance, they have apparently "signed off" for a whistle and be back "on the air" at some point.
In the meantime, a Republican Congress has played football with the re-apportionment amendment which would have raised the question of whether the South with a net result that actual enforcement of the franchise laws of this "Land of the Free" is less probable now than before the well-men a n i n g g Representative Tinkham offered it. The technically beaten out of bounds of steam-roller methods Republican leaders in the House traded off this Negro "birthright" for a mess of alien-voting "portage," and everybody seems but the still disfranchised race voters.
In addition to this, Congress has passed a tariff measure which, while promising property, is sure to press down nominally like a "golden crown of thorny heels" the head of the working and low-waged colored man.
And while entrenched privileges wallows in luxury, thousands of workers walk the street wearing themselves out looking for jobs while their families live on half
But what have these things to do with political leadership? Who should men interested in political plums be interested in saving babies and heart-broken mothers and wives in the alleys and side streets?

How The Storage Battery Works
The Storage Battery does not store electricity, as its name simply. It usually consists of two plates, one in a weak solution of sulphuric acid and distilled water (called the electrolyte). It is charged by passing an electric current through it, when the lead plates become so changed in their position that the plates between the negative plate and the electrolyte and produce an electric current, which will flow through a properly connected wire to the positive plate. The first wire continue until the plates become so charged, when it ceases, and the battery must be recharged.

14 COPS ON TRIAL
Grand Burry Told they Got Bribes from Numbers Barons.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Frank Burwell, real estate operator, Lucy Ashville, who runs a candy store at 19th and Federal streets, and Quincy Anderson, who operates a barber shop at 18th and Federal streets, were arrested last week as alleged principals in an alleged "numbers" ring, said to be doing a business in which thousands of dollars are invested.
Later Burwell, well dressed and unperturbed was arraigned with the others before Magistrate Roberts, in Central Police court, who fixed the bail at $1,000 each.
Police charged that Burwell is the most industrious of the South Philadelphia number backers. It was also claimed that a large gambling ring operating in Camden, N. J., is involved. Police went first to the candy store operated by Miss Ashville, where they found alleged number books and ships. After a few minutes of questioning, they have to have told police about Anderson. The police proceed to Anderson's place of business. Police say he admitted he wrote numbers and gave them information that lead to Burwell. It was Burwell's testimony early last fall before the special (August) Grand Juray that was partly responsible for the suspension of fourteen officers. Burwell was arrested on the same day that the fourteen policemen were before the Civil Service Commission charges. Burwell was charged by Burwell's testimony before the Grand Juray claimed that the police exported bribes from the number backers. The police asserted at that time that they did today that they were trapped.
Under Advisement
While the hearing was under way, word came of the arrest of Burr. He stated they would take the case of the police under advisement and promised several of the fourteen police were colored. Burwell is well known and has conducted a real estate office at and Federal streets for many years.

The wedding, it is whispered, will take place early in the fall.
MRS. JOHN HOPE, wife of the head of the Graduate School, Atlanta University, left Saturday for her home, after having spent several weeks as guest of the Thomas Hopes of Camden, N.J. Mr. Hope is brother of the president of the much-heralded institution in Georgia.
Mrs. Thomas Hope did an extensive bif

In Baltimore
It really was awfully generous of Dr. and Mrs. Loffon to run me down the road. University commencement exercises. Both Melvin and "Peggy" were rushed to witness the Loffon break and incidentally, Peggy's sister, Misa, is appearing in the cinema (these days). Dr. Morton of Mercy Hospital, also accompanied the guest of the Mosley household over the week-end, and Hilda, a teacher and likeable sister, Elise—both teachers, and daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Mosley, made an entire family, young brothers, and darling baby sister, Doris ("Dotty") included, displayed the knack of doing for you miniature
Bridge Party
At the bridge party given by Hilda, on Saturday, I met a fine group of Baltimore girls, and was especially impressed by the views of a very original young girl. Nora Warning, Of course, from a Philadelphia's point of view, the name sounds strangely familiar, but this interesting miss is cousin to our Nora.
Her sister, Mrs. Alice Wilson, wife of the registrar of Morgan College, was another "among those present," as were also Hyna Thomas, popular Catherine Connor, and her sister, Helena; Mrs. Matthews, Roberta Holmes, Lillian Dotson, Hilda Anderson, the pretty Dorothy Coleman, (who proved such a noble little sport about the "confiscating" of her second club prize, which was all in the evening's fun; and the young expert, Mary Jones, who claimed the beautiful hadinmade (by the hostess- boudoir pillow of a first guest prize, Mabel) him as and then milady in turquoise blue (or was it green). Mrs. Marie Thomas, who claimed second guest prize; and Ivy Boone of the famed AFRO family.
A clever feature of the delectable repast was the green crepe paper deftly and prettily disguising the sundae cups. In which was placed a dainty rosebud, just unfolding its petals, and protruding above the envious glaced on its slender green stem. A unique
"Ed" Wilsons
O. say, the next day the 'Ed' Wilsons and Nora brought the two little Wilsons,—"Junior" and Frances—around to see me. Then while Elsie Moseley was very busy entertaining Prof. and Mrs. Stanley Adams of Charlotte, N.C. and motor guest, Mr. Clement of Johnson C. Smith University, Hildard Anderson thought it (opportune (or propitious or wotchawill) to take a spin around the lake in Druid Hill Park, where the rose garden nearby was attracting quite a few visitors.
Later a group of us were escorted through that almost ideal (if a hospital can ever be called THAT) building, the Provident. Ask me if ours here in the city do not suffer in comparison! That hospital with Mercy's campus?! What a place it would be! But then, too, we could picture a similar structure for our local hospitals, and retain our campus. thanks.

But my program was never so full that I could not find time to do anything in my own way—then I slipped over to the Irelands to be with Margaret Howe.

And I, at least, enjoy being with Margaret, and instantly places herself in with Margaret, her dad, Elizabeth and her mother and dad. But, let me tell you, we must remain over and let them drive me over to Annapolis—now made famous by Congressman McCarthy—so we awfully like that. But I refused to be tempted!

EQUITY RULING BLOW TO RACE MOVIE ACTORS
Broadway Stars Can Only Appear With 100 Per Cent Association Cast.
CRIPPLES EXTRAS
Few Artists Belong to Performers Organization.
LOS ANGELES, Calif. What may develop into serious complications for Negro actors who have entered the motion picture field, was brought to light this week, when the Actor's Equity Association declared a "closed shop" plan in this industry which will prevent members of the association from acting in any sound picture which is not composed of a one hundred per cent Equity cast. The act is mandatory and was made after an alleged poll of motion picture actors on the coast. The Actor's Equity Association is an organization very similar to the American Federation of Labor which furnishes protection for the performers and managers and arbitrates differences.
FEW NEGROES BELONG.
With the exception of a few names like those of Paul Robeson. Ethel Waters, Miller and Lyles and some others of prominence in the theatrical world, very few Negro actors are affiliated with the playwright and the thousands of extras who coasted the coast studios in the wake of the Negro picture vogue, will be hardest hit by the ruling, because they will be completely shut out of pictures in which the principal players are members. This will be the case in the playwright because already most of the pictures planned for this season are built around Broadway stage stars.
FOUR PICTURES COMPLETED.
Four big pictures already completed, employing large colored casts, are "Hearts in Dixie." "Fox Follies," "Show Boat" and "Hallelujah," Race actors, producers, songwriters and entertainers are flocking to the play. What effect order will have on these, remains to be seen. Both motion picture producers and the Equity officials expect a long

Fetchit With Host of Other Race Artists, Star in Big Movie Revue.
By RALPH MATTHEWS
Reviewed at B. F. Keith's 105th Street Theatre
CLEVELAND, OHIO — The "Fox Movietone Follies," is a striking departure from things ordinary in motion picture production in that it not only funishes for the race actor a medium of expression of h.s. natural talents for singing and dancing but also introduces some of the most novel effects in cameraization over portrayed on the silver screen.

Joint Recital
On June 9th, Ruth Bazatrice Waters, planist, and Benjamin John Ragdale, baritone, appeared in a joint recital at the Elks' Imperial auditorium, most ably assisted by Carl R. Diton.
Art Theatre
While Stepin Fetchit, elongated comedian, furnishes much, of the comedy relief, he is not the only performer of color who hits a high average in entertainment honors. There are about 50 Negroes in the cast who cake walk and tap dance into the hearts of the auditors.
Just A Revue
While the Revue have a small semblance of a plot streaking thru, it is merely a Broadway Revue transplanted to the screen with more novel effects than could possibly be obtained on the stage.
"Hearts in Dixie," another Fox production and "Halleluja," being completed by King Vidor call upon the Negro's talents as a dramatic leader. The polls will wrap up the avenue where he has made his greatest theatrical success. With this picture topping the box office scales in many houses in spite of sultry weather it remains but a matter of time before production will wrap up artists with Broadway names and build all race shows of the calibre of "Shuffle Along." "Running Wild," and "Blackbirds."

Washington Wins Election.
BROOKLYN, N.Y.—Monday night the annual election was bogged with ROSE, who was held with an extra amount of spirited debate, electioning and every art and wife of the diplomats, but all in good strong competition, which withal
The battle raged around the office of Exalted Ruler. Candidates for the office were J. M. Washington, the present incumbent, who had filled the chair for four consecutive terms and S. B. Mayo, one of the strongest opponents yet put up by the opposition.
The erection of the remodeled and enlarged Elks home has been the crowning feature of Washington's administration. This is the first election to be held in the new building. Many of the brothers felt that Washington should enjoy at least one term in the new building. He won over his opponent by fifty-nine votes.
No other office was contested. A. L. Buchanan, E.L.K.: George Zeno, E. Lect. K.: Malvin Smith, E. Loyal K.: Dr. Roland R. Johnson, medical examiner, were the other officers elected.
Delegates elected to grand lodge sessions in Atlantic City, N.J. were: J. M. Washington, Dr. A. M. Jacobs, Benjamin F. Butler, Atty. Thomas L. Higgins, Walter Peterson, H. H. Kimbough, George Zeno, Robert L. Zeno and Edward Jones. Alternates, Walter Purdy, P. A. Myers, Warren Dillard, James Burton, H. McDaniels, James Davis, Edward Carghill, H. H. Hamm and William Lucas.

By EARNEST VARLACK
BY EARNEST VARLADHA
PHILADELPHIA, PA.—When Vincent Youmans is at best you may reckon yourself close upon the high water mark of the theatrical entertainment.
In "Great Day" he is at his very best. This piece was presented for the first time last Tuesday evening at the Garrick theatre. The cast of "Great Day" is a mixture of both white and colored entertainers with the latter excelling in their parts. The plot as with most musical comedy plots, doesn't amount to much. It tells the story of a girl whose father is a gambler and who left her in care of an old horseman. She grows older, falls madly in love with a taxi driver who takes her for her job. There are misunderstandings and promises to reform on the part of the taxi driver. But as with all musical comedies, all ends happily.
The story is laid in New Orleans and is in two acts and a prologue covering the time of the girl's birth in the early part of the century until the present day.
The piece casily leads in its musical jubilee chorus. The comedy most of which is entrusted in the hands of the generally capable ler and Lyles was much too long termer. The piece is well cast, every one making the most of his or her part. Outstanding were Gilbert Holland and the jubilee chorus singing with manifest gusto the hit number of the show, "Without a Song."
Fletcher Henderson and his orchestra play well. The comedy team of Miller and Lyles did what they could with parts that had little humor in them and Cora made excellent foll for this well-
The dancing team of Moiret and Fredi danced with much grace and ease. "Great Day" has the making of a fine musical comedy, needing only a few more weeks of polishing before being ripe for Broadway. If has good music, bad comedy, marvelous dancing, extraordinary singing and a fair book. Mr. Youmans is to be congratulated on producing such a fine specimen of musical comedy art as "Great Day" is.

Art Theatre
The New Negro Art Theatre, connected with the Columbus Hill Neighborhood, under the direction of the director, by the leader of the Yankers Players, has announced a busy week-end for June 8. Saturday morning, June 8, the Cincinnati "Rider and" nursery revue. On June 9, the third popular Sunday night productions will offer Waste," a one-act drama by Knot Leslie; "Monday's epic," "The Congo," and "Poots." On the program of the A.C.P. Fresh A.M. Monday night, 10, they are producing ever-popular "Rider of Dreams," by Ridgley Torrence.
Sunday Concerts
The spring season definitely placed the Sunday afternoon concert in the know. Each Sabbath Day, during April and May, brought us from one to one-half dozen musical offerings. Churches, theatres and halls were filled of a Sunday with those who go in for things musical. And all met with success. No matter what else may be said about Harlem, at least we must admit that the natives enjoy their music. June, so far, has had two irlumps.
The Bermuda Benevolent Association presented the following artists: Minnie Brown, soprano; Gertrude Martin, violinist; Marlon Cumbo, cellist; E. H. Margetson, pianist-composer; Andrades Lindsay, accompanist—in a Concert Extraordinary at Grace Congregational Church, Sunday afternoon, June 2.
Children's Exhibition
Friday, June 7, offered two exhibitions of children's dancing—the annual program of the Physical Education Department of the West 137th Street Branch of the Y.W.C.A. under the direction of Vivian Roberts, at the Hickory Avenue Outstanding performers was Grace Giles' famous dance pupils in their annual dance revue. There were about eighty numbers in all, four hundred children in attendance. To our way of thinking, the most remarkable part of the program was the entertainment, with the four ten-footed, nostril dancers and tad dancers. The senior classes had nothing on them with regard to routine and choreography. Most commendable work was rendered in the impersonations of our foremost stars of the legitimate stage. Johnny Hudgins, the dancer who seemed right at home in the shoes of the original characters.
A decided novelty was the dancing of programmers, who possesses a pair of remarkable feet. Freddie is a toe舞er, but the novelty of this act was that upon each ballet he used a tap plate, and how he used tape.
The costumes were simply gorgeous, from the elown costumes right on up to the fuffle costumes. We were told that the paper dolls really were paper frocks. Of course, little "Johnny Hudgins" (Frank Hablsham) was there and the costumes were better than the last two times we saw him.

Fetchit, Hollywood's Bad Boy Says Pastor, Friend of Star
Californian at Baptist Meet, Has Part of His Flock in "Hallelujah" and Son in "Hearts in Dixie."
CLEVELAND, Ohio. — In spite of best in Los Angeles and is encouraging others to duplicate his action, Rev. Mr. Lively believes in enjoying a little bit of heaven here on earth. Negro motion pictures stars have at least one friend of the cloth in the Rev. A. Lively, pastor of New Hope Baptist Church in Los Angeles, California, who is attending the National Baptist Sunday School Congress here this week.
The Rev. Mr. Lively counts among his friends and church workers such names as those of Sunshine Sammy, Carolyn Snowden and many of the singers who have recently come in to the movie industry. His telephone Many of the church members jubilant in the chorus of "Hallelujah," he said, and his own son was one of the leading singers in "Hearts in Dixie."
Many of those earning good salaries in the cinema industry, Rev. Lively said, are investing their money in real estate, which, at the rapid expansion of Los Angeles, is better than placing money in the bank. Stepin Fetchit, he said, is reported to be the bad boy of the coast, having bought several automobiles and employed chauffeurs and other servants aping the white stars. The Rev. Lively says that he wants to save Fetchit, not so much in a spirit way by saving money from abroad but in a temporal way by showing him how to save his money and become a credit to the community.
In urging his people to earn and save, the Rev. Mr. Lively does not do so only by word of mouth but by example. He has just completed a four-family flat modeled after the

The Negroes are making rapićades, he said. While he thinks that the motion pictures are doing much for the race, he is skeptical of what the effect on the group as a whole will be, because, while picture-making pays well during the casting and filming, might less than six months or a year, it is hard for people to work during the interim.
Negroes are teaching in the mixed schools, conducting building and loan establishments and forming insurance companies on the coast, he said, and many are well on their way towards financial independence.

BOY ARTIST ATTRACTS GOTHAM CRITICS
Ronald Joseph Regarded as
Best of N. Y. City Public
School Painters.
MARKED ORIGINALITY
"Don't Want to Copy Anybody, or Anything," He Says.
NEW YORK CITY—Having already won a definite place as best of public school paints, Ronald Joseph, boy artist has attracted the attention of the art critics here.
Young Joseph exhibited 60 charcoals, water colors and crayon drawings at the Metropolitan Museum are last week.
The young artist comes from humble birth. His foster mother, Mrs. Henrietta Joseph being, a charwoman and his foster father, the Theophilus Joseph, an elevator man. He wants to public school save years ago and into the field of art is probably due to his teacher who sent him to Stuyvesant High School where Dr. Henry E. Fritz has organized a class in art. Dr. Fritz passed the rigid mental tests required of students in this special class and has been a member for the past six years. He is a West Indian and came to New York at the age of 10. He is shown enough distinction and accomplished enough to have an individual section in the exhibition which Dr. Fritz arranges annually of the work of the thirty most gifted boys in New York public schools, Dr. Fritz's class is limited to fifteen boys and fifteen girls. "
One of the outstanding features about the work of the young man is that it is highly original. In his own word, anybody nor anything." Neither does he have any of the outward characteristics of the dreamy-eyed artists. It does seem rather young, but looking at his garret waiting for people to come and make you famous. What I would like best to do would be to get odd jobs. I would like to work with you. I want to. I would like most of all, not to go to an art school but to work and learn from somebody who is doing something real.
Not Race Conscious
One of the most interesting features about the work of Joseph is that it does not show the least race consciousness. He has a strong sense of racial association with the Harlemite. He is not part with people for the fun of mixing and he does not dance well with others. He is not part of the technique of painting he reads Schopenhauer. Joseph does not like to discuss the handicap and he does not recognize a handicap, especially fun loving. He does not like

Dr. Robert W. Brooks Is Speaker at Fifth Annual Congregational Conference
CO-OPERATIVE INTEREST
Health, Education, Labor, Crime, etc., Problems.
WASHINGTON — Speaking on "How Can: Negroes and Whites Live Together and Grow?" Dr. Robert W. Brooks, Minister of Lincoln Memorial Congregational Church, urged not only the possession but the exhibition of mutual respect at the fifth annual conference of young Congregational workers of both races, here Sunday.
Dr. Brooks pointed out that the problems of health, education, labor, crime, politics and religion were of common interest the youth of both races, and made towards making a contribution affecting the whole, he said.
There must be a practical consciousness, he said, that we are all our brother's keeper. A spirited discussion followed the address, and in commenting on the affair, Dr. Brooks stated that he left the meeting with the feeling that the present generation of young white men are facing the problems of racial relations with courage and frankness and without the bitterness which former generations shower.

CHICAGO—Increased wages and better working conditions were announced as a result of a joint conference between 21 representatives of porters, maids, and company officials here last Wednesday.
Besides a flat increase of $5 per month, effective June 1st, several important improvements in working conditions were agreed upon according to J. N. Aden, chairman of the joint conference. Among other changes were an increase in the extra pay where men double on their assigned lay-over days; and increase in the extra pay where the tour of duty is prolonged by delayed arrivals and certain guaranteed payments where porters and maids are called but not used.
"Although" declared Mr. Aden. "these improvements in working conditions along with all that the servers and maids contended for, these improvements will enable the Pullman company to employ more employees employed regularly." $24.40 per cent of the porters and maids employed by the company were represented at the meeting according to Mr. Aden.

RIDGE, Md.-The Cardinal Gibbons Institute expects a gift of $22,500 from the General Education Board, instead of $25,000 as reported in last week's APRO-AMERICAN, officials of that institution stated this week.
This announcement was made at the recent commencement by the Rev. John La Farge, former chapain and now trustee of the institution, who for some time has been carrying on the bulk of the burden of financing the institution.
FOR BUILDINGS.
The General Education Board voted this appropriation after a careful investigation of the work being done at the school and it will be used to pay one-third of the expenses of a badly needed girl's dormitory, and the balance will provide one-half of the cost of a trades building for boys.
The New York committee, recently organized in behalf of the institution, and now enlarged as an advisory committee with John F. Kennedy to raise the balance of the $80,000 needed to complete these buildings. The gift of the General Education Board is dependent upon the raising of the funds by the institution and its friends.
The prize given Miss Evelyn Thomas of California, Md., for the best representation of the spirit of the war was $2, instead of $5 as reported.

MODERN YOUTH IS REGENT FEATURE
"The Younger Generation," With Lena Bosquette, to Play Three Days.
FANCY BAGGAGE NEXT
Thursday and Friday.
One of the answers to the often asked query, "What is becoming of the youth of today?" is given in "The Younger Generation," which will play at the Regent Theatre, the first three days of next week.
“The Younger Generation” is an adaptation of the stage play “It Is to Laugh,” and the story “The Gold in the Fish.” by Fannie Hurst. It has been pronounced her best work. As a play, it made a tremendous hit. “Passos” is relieved by deft touches of humor that hide tears with smiles. Love ready to sacrifice itself for another is revealed in tense situations. A fire in a tenement house, a bold daylight robbery on Fifth avenue and gay social functions are among the highlights.
Jean Hersholt has the stellar role and is supported by an all star cast, which includes the names of Lina Basquetti, Rosa Rosanova, Ricardo Cortez, Rex Lease, Martha Franklin, Jeanne Johnston, Jack Raymond, Sydney Crossley, Otto Fles, Julia Swayne Gordon and Donald Hall.
"Fancy Baggage," featuring Audrey Ferris and Myrna Loy, is the attraction which will be presented Friday. Miss Ferris plays the part of a high-stepping flapper who finds by accident that her extravagances have plunged her into financial difficulties, which threaten him with a term in prison. With sudden determination she sets out to get the false confession her father has given her for a million, to be used to keep her up in her course of living. Complications, thrilling and often amusing, follow, and in the course of her running craft and revenue cutters play an exciting part.

ROYAL
SINGING AND TALKING PICTURES
We are happy to announce that we have installed the finest equipment obtainable for the reproduction of the latest singing and talking pictures, and that we will bring to our patrons only the highest class of film attractions, Vitaphone Acts and talking comedies.
For our reopening week we have been fortunate in securing the great 100 per cent talking picture, "Weary River," featuring Richard Barthelmess, that played New York 6 months at $2.00 prices.
During this great jubilee week we will also present an all talking colored comedy and a special Vitaphone Act, featuring the first time in this city, the great star of "Show Boat," Jules Bledsoe in "Old Man Trouble," a wonderful singing act.
Remember: Only the Best will be shown at the Royal. We hope you will be delighted with our supreme attractions.
ROYAL RE-OPENING WITH "WEARY RIVER"
New Policy Presents One of Greatest Talkies of the Year.
"DIVINE LADY" NEXT
Corinne Griffith in Historical Drama, Last Three. Days.
Inaugurating its new policy of presenting talking pictures exclusively, the Royal theatre will reopen Monday, presenting Richard Barthelmess III, the sound version of "Witney River." Presented with Vitaphone sequences, "Witney River" has been acclaimed by metropolitan movie critics as one of the best pictures of the year. It will play three days.
"The story of the Witney River" relates the adventures ofimental and romantic episodes of Jerry Larabee, a singing contest whose radio broadcasting from wins him a parole, a new chance at life, fame that takes him to the stage and the love of the girl associated by him in the hour of need.
"Weary River" has but one scene of the story is laid in a modern American city with a night club a gambling house and a liquor store, etc. It is flashing it up, not what is generally called an underworld or cook story; rather, it is a sentimental tale of a singing convict whose voice over the radio achieves for him a perole, a new life and the love of a girl. "Divine Lady" For the last half of the week, the Royal is presenting Corinne Griffith in "The Divine Lady," an epic production which brings to the screen one of the greatest romances of history. "The Divine Lady" tells the story of Lord Nelson and Lady Hamilton, of the great victory at Alqar that won the day for England and that life of its greatest admirer.
Glowing with color, both musical and scenic, dramatic to the extreme, filled with tender love passages alternating with the din of battle and the clash of highly-strung temperaments, a virtual page out of history, the story of a love that was too great for the world, a feature of love in which Corinne Griffith in the role of Emma, Lady Hamilton, presents a characterization greater than any in which she has hitherto been seen.

THE PREACHER'S FRIEND
REV. HOWARD EDWARD TUCKER, B.T.N.
A young man who is doing things in Maryland, came here five years ago from Pittsburgh, having been the associate pastor of the late Dr. O. T. Timms, of Rodman Street Baptist Church. He has done a great work as pastor of Union Baptist Church, Sparrows Point. Rev. Tucker believes in the old maxim, "A people that is good enough to pastor, is good enough to live among."
In a little more than four years, he has built a beautiful six room parsonage of the most modern plan on the church campus. He found the public school there in three small buildings on J street. He was instrumental in having a No. 1-A school building of eight rooms and a "Gym" in the basement built. He is strongly felt in the County-Wide Parent and Teacher Association in getting concessions for the high school children of Baltimore County, and this has lifted the burden from the parents of said County.
The business enterprises, such as the People's Company and the Northside Perpetual Loan Company, whose annual report accounts for more than $700,000,000, please him for welling a telling influence business.
He is felt in the religious activities in the State of Maryland and the City of Baltimore. He is the president of the State Convention, he was unanimously elected auditor. He is a fearless preacher. Those who have visited Sparrows Point and the State Convention, can next see him. He is in his humorous disposition, all preachers are his brothers. He is a product of Virginia Seminary and Pittsburgh University, and is known as the preacher's friend.

DISTURBANCE BUT NO VIOLENCE AT LADIES' MEET
Miss Ida Cummings Says Report of Bottle Throwing Was Erroneous.
STOPPED MEETING
Did Not Want Election to Proceed Under Conditions.
Statements that there was fainting and bottle throwing at the election meeting of the Daughter Elks last week were vigorously denied by Miss Ida Cummings, Daughter Ruler of the Pride of Baltimore Temple, who presided at the meeting, in a signed statement this week.
Stateman
"There was considerable disorder," said Miss Cummings. "and some things said which might have been left us said, but to my knowledge there was no violence of any kind." Miss Cummings also declared that there were no police in the hall at any time.
Halts Election

"The Temple," said Miss Cummings, "has been one of the most successful in the country. It has grown by leaps and bounds, and naturally there would be some competition when the time for election came around. At this meeting this competition want beyond bounds, and when the meeting got from under control, I felt that no election should be held under such circumstances. It was I who called the election off and not the national officials."
Deputy's Action
Friends of Mrs. Jennie Ross, who is opposing Miss Cummings for Daughter Ruler declared that Mrs. Martha Pulley, election deputy, used high handed methods by sending assistants among the members to mark their ballots. Both Miss Cummings and Mrs. Pulley denied that anything irregular had been done. A number of the members cannot witness the explained, and many have always helped them mark their ballots. When the election is held, it will be done fairly and she will welcome the result without feelings, whoever is elected Miss Cummings said.
Miss Cummings' statement follows:
From the article which appeared in last week's AFRO, it might be thought that the F. E. W. Temple. No. 429, of Elks is composed entirely of a group of women whose conduct is anything but refined and ladylike, as evidenced by the statement that bottles were thrown and policemen had to be called to quiet a disturbance at the last meeting.

STAND around the pumps in a filling station for a while--and you'll learn something! You'll learn that the man who orders AMOCO-GAS orders it without hitch or hesitation--in a tone of voice that leaves no doubt that he knows what he wants and intends to get it!
You'll find that the man or woman who orders AMOCO-GAS manipulates his or her car with certainty and assurance that comes from confidence--that AMOCO-GAS users are plainly motorists of experience. And that their cars--whether brand new ones or veterans of the road--show by performance that they have been carefully driven and kept in the best of condition!
For when a man or woman is proud of a car--you may be sure that it's on an AMOCO-GAS diet--receiving the best of treatment in return for the best of service!
"Certainly, AMOCO-GAS!"--that's the order of the motorist who knows what's what and intends to get it!

This statement comes to disbuise the mind of the public that any such occurrence as mentioned happened, and to brand as absolutely false that women fainted. And further, to proclaim that in no way were underhand methods used to obtain votes. The proceedings of the meeting were interrupted before all final instructions pertaining to election were given by the deputy, Dt. Martha Pulley. It is true that there was great confusion. And in view of this, the deputy called off the election until further notice, for she felt that justice could be shown to no one under such conditions.
The Harper Temple, although not three years old, has made rapid strides in several fields of endeavor, by establishing units which have developed race consciousness, and have given to the daughters opportunities for personal development in lines of music, athletics, health, child welfare and education, all of which are very essential to the bringing about of a bigger and stronger race. The Temple is in a most prosperous state, both financially and in membership. At last month's meeting one hundred and seven (107) daughters received their degrees. At each of the two Grand Sessions to which there were delegates, in New York City and in Chicago, Harper Temple was awarded a Silver Loving Cup. And, the thou this Temple is young, it ranks among the foremost in Elkdom.

Wives, Mates, Fight About Clothesline
A bitter feud, precipitated by two women about the ownership of an ordinary clothesline, ended in near tragedy, when husbands of the women staged a pistol duel. The women, Mrs. Julia Young and Mrs. Sarah Brown had an argument a week ago over a clothesline each claimed as her own. Each day the argument grew hotter, and when it was reopened Tuesday, the husbands appeared to assist their
matters.
When the men met on the street they started firing at each other, a stray bullet striking Frank Brown, number 21. Register street. Police, attracted by the noise arrested both men on charges of shooting at each other with intent to kill, and held them for a further hearing when arraigned in Eastern police station.
Frank Young, sr. is in Municipal hospital in a serious condition with a bullet in his left side.

WOMAN TAKES BLAME FOR LOVER IN FORGERY
Mrs. Mary Ellis Sentenced to Six Months in the City Jail.
AT FIRST CONFESSED
Said Sheridan Gordon Forced Her to do Forgery.
Pleading guilty to two charges of forgery and exonerating her alleged lover, Sheridan Jordan, 917 McDonald street, Mrs. Mary Ellis, 29, 1623 Barnes street, was sentenced to six months in jail, Monday, after a hearing in Criminal Court.
Mrs. Ellis was arrested when she presented two checks to the cashier at the Belair Market branch of the Baltimore Trust Company for $36 and $42 which were cashed. When the woman presented another chick a few hours later for a larger amount the cashier became suspicious and ordered her arrest.

Oss is distinctly surprised when a man of eighty nine years develops an a radical who does not follow known paths, and a physical culture who has formed for himself a triumph of rules that he stoutly maintains will enable him to live at one hundred fifty years. Such is Harry Gray. So far he has made a splendid triumph in his accomplishments. His life is not marred by a single wing; his teeth are in a perfect state of motion, a home of men many years removed. His philosophy is as crimes as are his habits of living. I arrived at his suite of rooms in the Somerville Hotel. My dinner, he himself says, I never eat in a restroom of cake.
I watched fascinated as he scraped the wood carrots, peeled and died the shredded lettuce and cabbage. He made me a story I shall never forget.
Born a Slave
I was born in bondage on the North Plantation in Birthree County in North Carolina. I was very deceived to my master and mistress, for we were very good to me. During Civil War the Union Army came near and I led them to Black Mountain in that region. Here I knew they would be剩. No one ventured into the camp but a few of us who knew the trails for many and varied were stories that were told of the quicksand and mud that Cainan had. After freeer life, I became overseer on that place remained there for thirty years. Then I went north."
How He Became Intellectual
I was wondered about his English,
his spoken voice as a scholar, with the
painted lines to me by saving: "In
the days of my innocence and super-
powers when I first went to New
York, I met an intellectual bum;
each time I met him, I was given
of liquor and he in turn would
me lessons in the fundamentals.
From him I learned much of science,
history, anthropology and kinetics.
At first deceived, at first amazed,
much later the night and never went again, because
he embarrassed me to go among people
who possessed more education than
I have been very observant
all my life, and I never went
I always watched the man gave
me. I learned to express my
exactly the way he exhorted
me. I memorized many beautiful
sayings and he poured into each
conversation. In that way, I accumulated a large
volume.
Since time the vegetables were
mixed and he poured on a sand
dressing man with egg yolks, cotton-
ed oil, salt and vinegar.
He set the table for two and mowed me to a chair. As we ate our dinner of brown bread, cheese and story, he gave me the rest of his story.
"Preaching Hell Out of Souls"
"When I was a young man I became a preacher. My first mission was to preach souls out of hell, my mission now is to preach hell out of souls. For centuries fear has riled the world. Man will never teach the state of humanity for him until he lets love and not lead govern his every habit and deed in life.
Too Much Hurry
"There is one great, fault I find with people today—they hurry too much. They use up all of their reserve forces in every day affairs. I have always been interested in longevity. All animals live from five to ten times their age of maturity. The average man lives scarcely twice the age of maturity. I pondered over it, and this is the result of my thinking. I constantly hurries; no matter how inconsequential a task he has to perform, he blurs about as though the fate of nations hung from his every action. Animals hurry only in case of an emergency. Man eats to suit his environment, consumes different foods with no thought of nutriment but of taste. I only have one diet Our dinner, as you see, is very simple, very easily prepared and requires no cooking. For supper I shall probably eat the same thing or maybe I shall eat dried meat and nut meat. I shall eat dried but little and I never tire of it.
"I walk many miles each day. I don't smoke drink or even chew gum because I found cut that those things do not preserve youth.
Advises Youth
"Our youth must be taught to conserve their vital energy. The energy they burn up foolishly, enjoying life as they call it, could serve them better. They can learn on of some worth while project." "You believe in the young people of today, don't you?" I asked him. "You must learn, formost among them is this one. Our boys must learn to respect our women and to honor them and really believe they are the equal of any other. No race can rise above its standard of appreciation for its women." **Opinion of Birth Control** "I believe in large families and I don't believe in people, about our ever-increasing population. Nature has always taken care of such things—always will." Mr. Grav has lived a life of many phases. He has been married and cared. He has been lecturer, editor, laborer, minister, and now, he has almost completed a book. "We Live to Be 150 Years Old." "Do you really think you shall live one hundred and fifty years?"
"Why, of course," he shoutly maintained. "The human body is able to renew itself indefinitely. We should live, not one human long, five years, so that we just as long as we will. So a creation as perfect as our never intended for man to live a few short years and then—darkness."
His conversation had interested me so that I had nearly forgotten the real mission of my business. I recalled it when he about his pictures. "Pictures? I like to work in them. Interesting? They are an education in themselves. I enjoyed every minute of the time I was before the camera. I could accurately portray scenes because I lived in a construction period. I lived in construction. We need pictures that are historically so many of our group will not respond to reconstruction days drama, but we should glory in our present achievements, thinking kindly of the age when our race was stepped in ignorance and superstition. We should portray his modern life upon the silver screen. The sonorous voices of our people will be heard in the clas-

A S...we are just moving in to this column today the folks will have to take pot juck.
This is all the more so as we intend to be a real pepper-pot. But wait, we'd better explain what is a pepper-pot.
Pepper-pot is a favorite dish south of the Rio Grande. That is, if one can call it a dish, for it is composed of a variety of tasty what-nots.
During the week mother throws all the odds and ends of meat—beef, pork, chicken, mutton, rabbit, game—into a three-legged pot that sits in the ashes near the wood fire. Then on Saturday she puts in the vegetables—bits of yam, breadfruit, coffee, ochro, and a variety of greens, not forgetting a liberal supply of fresh, wild bird-pepper—and sets the pot on the fire.
In an hour or so there arises a delicious odor that can be smelt a mile off—an odor in which that of pepper predominates. The family then gathers around the pot. Each dip in his spoon just as his African ancestor did centuries ago, and whatever he brings up, down it goes.
If there is any left, back it goes with the pot into the sasha's seashell case. You can also serve it dinner. And so you may be eating some of last year's pepper-pot, who knows? A pepper-pot may have ancestry, and then again it may
...
Besides, the Paris Pepper-po' is going to run true to form. The first duty of a good columnist is to have others do his work for him while he draws pay for it. So we extend a hearty other outlet for other outlets for their bright and clever thoughts to send them to us—bits of witty verse, anecdotes, and anything of striking human interest.
And we do not intend to let them work for nothing. Oh, no. We promise them the finest of all remunerations—a thrill. For what can equal the pleasure of seeing one's name in print? Lest it be thought we're joking we'll add that even we old-timers do not exactly see our names in print, even though we seen it a thousand times, before
...
Indeed in asking your contribution we may even be on the way to become a benefactor of humanity. Think! By contributing to the Paris Pepper-Pot you may be actually starting on a career as a great humorist, a great writer, or even a passed is the man who makes a laugh grow where none grew before. As a racial group, we have the reputation of being humorous but you'd never guess it by our writings. So send in your short articles and witty sayings to the Paris Pepper-

When They "Highbrow" You
Many a pompous papa, dignified damsel and arrogant auntie finds such a delight in correcting the mispronounced words of their friends and relatives that the latter meet them in fear and trembling.
The amusing thing about this is that in most cases the pompous, dignified and arrogant ones mispronounce many simple words themselves.
Quite frequently you will hear the word "Salmon" pronounced "Sallmon." Really, the "I" is as silent as the "q" in horse-radish. Our friend the dictionary tells us that "Sam-on" is the real pronunciation.
Watch carefully the chronic corrector of mispronounced words and you can easily locate a few errors as glaring as this. Correcting the corrector is the surest method of curing him and ridding the neighborhood of an inausible pest.

newspaper.
Enfin, just a word of warning. Contributors must not get nervous if their articles do not appear the day after they are sent in. Some bit, that go into the Penet-Pot may not be eaten for weeks and weeks. Besides you must the saying: A watched pot never boils.
While waiting for the avalanche of wit and humor to pour in, we'd better get busy. The editor suggested that we begin with a series of articles on Paris. So since there is no more to read, Paris has the distinction of being the only city in which we have not been bored. In Chicago, where we once lived, time hung heavy on our hands. The same is true of London. In Berlin, Rome, Vienna, Milan, Brussels, things were a little better. But being in Paris is like being on a perpetual holiday.
There are amusements to suit the audience in Paris. They range from the sublime to the silly, from the sacred to the sexy.
Are you interested in art and literature? Well, there are museums and libraries galore. Are you religious? You can ask asking questions. Are you thirsty? You can buy a drink any time of night or day ranging in price from $16 to two cents. Do you like walking? The parks and promenades are the most interesting of which is the Champs-Élysées. Do you like the theatres? You can see Shakespeare, Hugo, Racine, Moliere, any night. But perhaps your tastes run, run, run things? The theatres can go to places where the ladies frolic in fig leaves, and if you are exacting, you may see them dance in less. And prices are arranged to suit every pocket. Of the places are so cheap you go in for the price of a pack of chewing gum; others are so dear that the French, thrifty by nature, will not pass them less even if the bill strike them the sidewalk.
There is Montmartre. This is the jazziest and sexiest spot on earth and the first place visited by every good American. Cut out Montmartre and you'd make an awful dent in the tourist trade, which is about 90 people. Paris has an awful reputation, although the average Parisian is not a bit worse than the average citizen of Hickville, Oshkosh, or any place you may name. He goes to bed early because he has to punch the clock early, just like everyone is the making of Paris. Give it a better name and the hotel-keepers, the tourist agencies, the rich jewelers, the
there will be others just as good if he doesn't stick. It is a fine thing to love one man wholly, but never let it blind you to the facts of life. Now, one of the worst facts of life is that money is necessary. Lack of money does not always ruin a marriage—there wouldn't be many people left married if it did—but enough money makes the running smoother. I often think that the ancient custom of the dowry—which Europe still adheres to—was very wise. For if the wife always brought something when she came to her husband it would insure greater permanence to the union. It was just another way of giving the couple something to start on. This is particularly necessary in old countries where opportunity to make money is limited and lucky breaks are few. We sneer at the dowry in America because—until recently—almost any young man with energy could get ahead and hope for great wealth. Now, however, America is getting "sewed up" too. Free land is also gone. And with easy money receding our ideas of marriage will modify considerably. When your parents insist on your sweetheart having a bank account they are trying to insure some permanence to your marriage—so abide by their judgment.
modifies and dress-makers would certainly set up a bow. For with the present war against cabbages and sexy places in America, Montmartre is doing a finer business than ever.
Montmartre's night life reminds us of Harlem and Chicago's South Side. When the respectable Nordic wants to cut loose he goes to Harlem.
When the Englishman wants to have a good time he comes to Paris though a Montmartre would be unthinkable in a street where there is the land of personal liberty. Every one minds his own business.
The principal music halls of Montmartre are the Follies-Bergere, the Masino Biennial, the Biennial Blau. All frankly cater to the nude, and the jokes are—well—a trifle high. If you don't understand French, however, you'll keep as straight a face as if you were listening to you, you are laughing.
Scores of ladies thong the stage. Some have figures clipping the Venus de Milo, and almost eclipsing her in the matter of clothing, or rather lack of it. By the way, are most English, do wear a garment about one-fifth the size and thickness of the ham in a railroad ham sandwich. Josephine Baker, who starred at the Mouth Rouge Ball, the creature of the amount of clothing she wore. Miss Baker wore two bananas, one in front, the other in the rear, attached to a string. Colored musicians and others from America play an important role in the next-montmartre night life. In our next well tell something about them.

St. Maurice of Agaunaum, The Negro Martyr
Was Leading General Under the Roman Emperor Diocletian, and His Heroic Example Thrilled All Christendom. One of the Foremost Saints of the Catholic Church.
"Assembling his legion, he told them the sad truth and then made it clear that so far as he was concerned, he did not intend to go a step farther."
By J. A. ROGERS.
How many of the hundreds of thousands of Negro Catholics know that one of the foremost saints of their Church is a Negro? Picture in Noted Museum On the walls of the Old Pinkokethe, Munich, one of the most noted of Europe's museums, hangs a famous picture—famous not only because it is the work of Matthias Grunewald, but also of the saints saints saints. The principal figure of this picture is that of a very black man with hair that in a hair-straightening age will be described as "very bad," with lips that writers of the Thomas Keeffe exhibition sunk in blubbers." His nose is flat, and his cheekbones high, in short, the best that can be said of him is that measured by Caucasian standards he is ugly. He is just such a type as Caucasian, who would shrink from wishing to be.
But this is the extraordinary thing about that figure. It is clad in jeweled armor, a jeweled sword hangs by its side; around its neck is a collar stained with gems; on its shoulder is a workman's workmanship in gold and gems, illuminated by a halo, while on its face is a look of loftiest majesty.
Is Celestial Saint
This picture once decorated the front of the altar of the great Cathedral of Halle, Germany. His most important position? Because that Negro, in all his blackness, was one of the foremost of the Christian martyrs; he is the celestial saint of that part of Germany, as well as parts of France, Switzerland, and Italy. He was a monk, a priest, a St. Maurice of Aequanum was one of the generals of the Roman Empire, which was then under the joint rulership c: the Emperors Diocletian and Maximian the Herculian. Of his acce- sive life, he was a savage one. In the obscurity of long centuries even his real name is clouded with doubt. His surname lives, however. Because of his blackness he was known as the bishop in English. Even as late as Shakespeare's dark black bole were called Moors—"Othello the Moor." The term Negro did not come into use until 1442 when he was brought to Portugal and the Portuguese word "Negro" was used to describe their color.
Called by Emperor
But the little that is known of St. Maurice rings, through the ages. Mauritus (St. Maurice), who was commanding his legion in the Roman province of Mauretia, later Morocco, was called to Rome by his Christian ales a crucial timer. Christian slaves in Gaul were in revolt.
For in spite of the lash, the claws of wild beasts; the torture by red hot iron; the goering of wild bulls; the attack by the asunder by wild horses and trees, the Christians had been growing in power. From their hiding places in the Gatacombs they were expanding until they threatened the throne of the Caesars itself, like a thyme in a hedge; and from the rock, a rock, grows until it splits the rock assunder. Maximian and Diocletian had been forced to make peace with the tribes on the outskirts of their vast empire and to call as many of their soldiers as to deal with the Christians at home.
Must Kill Christians
Among those called to Rome was St. Maurice, as has been said, and the emperor, who Gaul to deal with the revolt. When he got as far as Agaunau, a wilde and desolate region in the Alps, and desolate region in what something that almost overwhelmed him.
The enemies he was going to attack were not there. In that case his duty was clear.

and he did not hesitate. Assembling his legion he told the sad truth, and then made it clear that so far as he was concerned he did not mumble to go a step further. With cheer, the soldierz hallled his decision.
Disobeys Orders
St. Maurice in touching language reminded them of the awful fate that awaited one and all, but they did not flinch. On this he sent a message to the emperor, informing him of his decision.
The message reached Maximian at Octodorum, where he was resting after the orders of a long campaign. Towering in angel's presence, he marched to Agaunum, where the African legion was calmly waiting.
Arriving there the emperor ordered St. Maurice and his men to sacrifice to the pagan gods at once. They refused to a man. Addressing the emperor St. Maurice add: "Behead the emperor."
"Sire, we are soldiers but at the same time we are servitors of Christ, a fact that we proudly confess. To you we owe militia y service; to Him, the homage of a pure and innocent life. From you we receive our benefit from Him, we hold the benefit of life."
"That is why, sir, we cannot obey you without denying God, the Creator of all things, our Master as well as yours, whether you acknowlend us or deny us to the sad plight of offending Him and you'll find us always ready to follow your orders. Otherwise know that we will sooner obey Him than you. We offer you our arms against any other enemy you wish to strike, but we hold it a crime to shed the blood of fellow Christians."
Decimation
On hearing this, the emperor, furious with rage, ordered the usual punishment; decimation; that is, every tenth man should be killed. St. Maurice's men were now ordered to kill him, and every tenth man was made to step forward. Once more the emperor called on these men, six hundred in number, to obey him, promising them honor and preferment, but they firmly declared that their duty to Christ came first. On this he ordered the order for massacre and his soldiers, falling on them, cut them down
Again every tenth man was made to step forward, and again each fell under the sword of the emperor's men.
Sacrifices Life
For a third time the emperor ordered the survivors to obey, and for their beloved commander, "We have seen our companions fall under the cword," replied St. Maurice, "we have been spattered with blood and we have been killed them, however, but envy them the privilege of dying for the One who died on the cross for us. Do what you will. No terror or torture is imposed on you, and we ready to die. We buildly confess that we are Christians; and that we cannot attack fellow-Christians." Finding them inflexible the emperor ordered annihilation of the men, and threw down their arms content to suffer martyrdom. A handful of them escaped and fled into Germany and Italy. Escaping among the dead was the heroic St. Maurice. This incident, occurring in an ages when the spirit of Christ, not the spirit of color, dominated the Church, gave great impetus to the Christian
Church Becomes Firm
Africa, this incident demonstrated to Europe, knew how to die en masse for Christ. It showed that the Church in Africa was as firm as it was in Rome. The people at home had been hearing of African martyrs; how courageous they had been growing in the aranes of native lands. Now they had had an exhibition of it at their own doors.
The fact is that ever since the eunuch of the Candace, or Queen of Ethiopia, had been converted by the Apostle Philip, as he acts of orthodoxy had taken orthodiacistically to Christianity. And even before that it was a man born in Africa, Simon of Cyrene, who had helped Christ with his cross.
African Leaders
Further, it is a significant fact that next to St. Peter's Church in Chicago, Christians like
$t. Augustine, St. Cyprian, Tertullian, Origen, and Clement of Alexandria, were all born in Africa. The first four were born in the heart of Negro North Africa, and are often spoken of as being black men. Throughout North Africa Christ and the Virgin Mary were frequently represented as black, and even in a place that St. Louis, King of France, brought the Black Virgin, whose tradition later spread to several parts of France, where she is still adored as in Velay, Auvergne, and Fores, as in parts of Spain. The patron of saints of Harve is the Black Virgin.
A Negro Pope
Popes was also a Negro, named Molchades. His tomb was pointed out to this writer on his visit to the Catacombs of St. Callistus in Rome. In short, the... were no white and colored churches but all were as one in the Mohammedan religion to lay down their lives had done so not as Negroes, but actually as one in Christ with their fairer-skinned brothers in Europe. Besides, Rome at that time was one grand conglomerate of all the races of Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa, and thus having been brought there by the conquering leagues of the Caesars.
Martyrdom Recorded
The martyrdom of St. Maurice and his men occurred in 287 A.D. causing as was said a great stir and revival of the Christian cause. But Maurice was not the only man followed, interest in the story grew fainter and fainter until it was revived a century later by St. Eucherius, Bishop of Lyons, who gathered the threads of the story, for the most part oral, and wrote a book. The church of St. Maurice was more firmly established and once again the splendid example of St. Maurice, as told by St. Eucherius, electrified the Christian world. In the wild and desolate region in which he fell a church was built, and many of the fraternity members were Monument to Him. Later Sigismund, King of Burgundy, in gratitude to the inspiration he had received from St. Maurice, founded an abby there. Still later this abby was restored and enlarged by the emperor marlemage, becoming one of the most noted and richest in Christendom.
During the Mohammedan invasion of Europe it was destroyed by the Moors, but it was rebuilt by St. Souls, king and patron of St. Louis, in 1264. AAD IXCIIA nt stands in the thriving little town of St. Maurice-en-Valais. The writer visited it in the summer of 1928. Priestless Relics The palace of St. Maurice and his men lie within the over-snowed by the towering peaks of the Alps, while the monastery is not far away. The abbey has still one of the richest and best preserved treasures in all Western civilization, among which are the quisite masterpieces of the jeweler's art—the gifts of many kings. For more than twelve hundred years the fame of St. Maurice stood firm. Then came the Reformation, which led to the Catholic Church. A bitter controversy waged, chiefly in Germany, whether St. Maurice had ever existed. But, today, his fame stands secure, as secure as that of Christ, Homer, and Shakespeare, around all of the sofic warty battles have been waged.
For one notable fact stands out about St. Maurice: Unlike many of the other saints, no supernatural origin is known for St. Maurice purely and simply an example of steadfastness and courage in the face of duty such as could be seen in Engleham, where more than a thousand years after the death of St. Maurice. At that time Christians were again burnt and tortured as in the days of Rome, this time by Pagans, but by fellow-Christians. Allard, leading authority on the subject of Christian martyrdom, says: "The martyrdom of the legion, which was the most valuable evidence cannot be called in to question by any honest mind."
Saint of Millions
September 22, the day on which St. Maurice fell, is one of the fetes of the Catholic Church. He is the celestial saint of millions of white people, the protege of the white people of millions of others, all over the world. He is the saint of dyers, clothmakers, soldiers, and swordsmiths, while sufferers from gout plead for his intercession on their behalf. St. Sardinian Order of St. Maurice, one of the most valued of Italian decorations was founded in his honor. There are several St. Maurices. St. Maurice of Agaunaua (The Moor) is not to be confounded with others. (MO)

RYNOPSIS
Bertrand Deveaux was a victim of the recent wave of unemployment. One day he sauntered into the office of a job. While there he met Eugenia, Syllans's beautiful secretary, Bertrand speaks with surprising importance and Eugenia is very much impressed and tamed to young men who behold her beauty, doing other than paying homage to her attractiveness. Three days later, Bertrand appeared at the service process on Syllan, who, for some time, had successfully eluded the law. Eugenia is angry because she thinks Bertrand delicately deceived her in order to serve process on her employer. She calls him a "treacherous sneak." The next night Eugenia goes to the library to attend a reception. Not long later the seat next to hers was also taken.

She ignored him. "The deuce!" he went on. "I had to get some kind of work, didn't I? Your office didn't give me any, so I had to keep looking. I ran into a lawyer whom I had known at college and told him what a fix I was in." She gave no sign of listening. "My friend, the lawyer, said I was just the man he needed, as I was a stranger in New York. He'd been trying to serve papers, he said, on Maximus Sylvan, a slippery citizen who knew all the process servers in Harlem and always managed to see them before they saw him." Eugenia kept her face
Eugenia kept her face turned away.
"He said it would be worth five dollars if I could serve Sylvan. Two years ago I could spend five dollars for a shirt, but now, when I've been eating ten-cent meals for a week, it looks like a fortune. So I took the papers, and as I had no interest in shielding Maximus Sylvan, I served him."
This time Eugenia gave him a scorching look.
"Your mistake," Bertrand Deveaux went on, "was that you thought I'd been a process server all along."
She Has to Speak.
She could keep silent no longer, her vanity was touched. Deveaux had taken a good deal of trouble to redeem himself in her eyes. "So," she replied, "you saw me and followed me in here to set yourself right." "I was coming here anyhow. But, you see, you had called me a sneak, and nobody had ever done that before. That bothered me a little, for I'm not a sneak. If I'd been a sneak and a snoooper and hadn't been so trustful I might have got wise to my wife and my business partner before it was too late. At that, I'm glad now that I lost them."
"Why?"
"I feel free, as if I'd got gangrene out of my system. Before I'd commit matrimony again I'd——"
"We'd better listen to the speaker," she interrupted, for he was back on her sore point again—his idea that she was not good enough for him unless she had money.
"But you understand now, don't you, the summons service?"
"Yes."
"So you know I'm not a sneak."
She turned her face away to hide a smile of triumph. This young man who had so wounded her self-esteem, was actually pleading with her. Yet she was touched.
"He's just a big boy after all," she mused, "a big boy with a bruised heart and nobody to heal it."
A Little Dancing.
They talked at intervals all through the meeting. When it was over the audience went down into the basement to dance. There Eugenia was in her element. A wave of young men surged toward her, and for the next half-hour she was busy dancing and warding off flattery. Once as she flitted by a pillar she saw Bertrand Deveaux, a lonely figure, leaning against it. She turned back.
"Don't you dance, Mr. Deveaux?"
"Yes."
"Then why don't you?"
"I'm a total stranger here, I've been in New York only two weeks, you know. You're the only girl I've met."
"And you haven't really met me."
"Yes, I have. The great god Morpheus introduced us. I caught you asleep one day, and then you caught me asleep. Since then I've told you my history and been bawled out by you. I'll dance with you now."
In a moment they were dancing together, in spite of the frowns of the young man whom Eugenia had promised the dance. When the music stopped she asked Deveaux to come and meet some more girls.
"I will, since you ask me, but I'm not keen on it. My matrimonial——"
"Oh, forget your matrimonial adventures and have a good time."
"Very well. I'll meet 'em and dance with 'em, but I won't go home with anybody but you."
"Indeed!" she said, archly delighted. "Why?"
"Because with you I feel safe from matrimony."
"Why with me more than others?" she asked resentfully.
"Well, you know all about me. You know I'm a poor prospect. Beside—" "Enough!" she interrupted, fearing he would speak of money.
dozen of Harlem's brown tullips, and watched him. She soon saw that he was no stranger to society. He knew how to bow and how to dance. Presently, judging from the sparkle in the eyes of the tullips he danced with, she suspected that he knew how to flirt.
When all the dances were over and the crowd was oozing out through the door, Eugenia found Deveaux at her side.
"Take me home," he begged.
"What!"
"That's what men will be saying a hundred years from now, if the women keep on as they've started. All right, I'm ready to take you home."
Eugenia tried to think of a biting retort, but none occurred to her. In a few minutes they were strolling up 135th street toward Seventh avenue.
"Supposs we lunch somewhere," he suggested. "I served three more summonses today and I'm flush."
"Did I hear you rightly? Or are you one of those one-in-a-century girls? A Harlem girl refusing to let a man spend money!"
Always Knocking Harlem
"You people from other places are always knocking Harlem and always running to Harlem. Why should we Harlem girls differ from others? We are as many sensible sympathetic girls in Harlem as you found in—in—"
"Chicago. That's where I lived, and where they did me up. Henceforth, I'm a.New Yorker. And I suppose you're right about Harlem. In fact, the finest girl I ever met is from Harlem.
"When did you meet her?" "In Max. my Sylvan's office." Eugenia stopped short.
"What is this?" she demanded, "more kidding?"
more kidding:
"Do I look it?"
No, he didn't look it, but she suddenly remembered something. "You forget, young man, that I have no money." "Lord, so I did. Please keep me reminded of that important point, I'm likely to forget it when with you." Eugenia was angry with her own heart, which accelerated its beat at Deveaux's words. She carefully talked in commonplaces till they reached her home. As they stood talking on the steps Bertrand Deveaux suddenly clasped his hands to his head.
"Gee, can you beat that?" he exclaimed.
"Beat what?" she wondered.
"Don't you see? Here I am without money or a regular job, 'all but proposing to my girl I first saw only a few days ago. And I don't even know your name, or whether you're married or engaged, or——"
Quite Eligible
"My name is Eugenia Ward. I've never been married and I'm too big a flirt to become engaged."
"Thank the Lord for that. Some day I'll call you Genie. You are a genie to me, you know."
"How?"
"Don't you remember, in the Arabian Nights tales, how Aladdin the Nightingale was the best friend and Aladdin was the luck? Well, you always bring me luck. The first day I saw you I was almost starving. Then I made five dollars. Yesterday I saw you again and today I made six dollars. I'm with you tonight, and I bet I'll have more luck tomorrow. I think I'll keep on dropping, in at Sylvan's office—when he's out, of course. Isn't it funny how some women bring disaster and others bring happiness?"
She skipped up with smiles and Eugenia skipped up the steps. When she got in the house she ran up the stairs two at a time. Somehow she felt galvanized, she wanted to leap and dance.
She had no idea of the trial that was awailing her the next day.
Sylvan's New Idea
Maximus Sylvan had got a new idea into his head.
He had always realized, of course, that he had a very pretty stenographer, and from the first he had meant to make the most of that pleasant fact. He was by no means a fool, however, and he soon learned that he was woken rush, but only by a blower. More or less, subtle, annoyances had
The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, June 15, 1929
gone over her head like poorly aimed arrows; she seemed unaware of them. Besides his mind was decidedly plebian and he was a little baffled by the girl's evident high breeding, which he had never met before in his amorous adventures. In the absence of any response to or even recognition of his guarded advances he hardly knew what to do.
Now, he reasoned, all his doubts were settled. Just because a man had served him with a summons the girl had leaped at the fellow like something possessed. The summons itself could not account for such fury; there must have been a deeper and dearer reason.
"By golly!" he congratulated himself as he leaned back in his swivel chair. "The kid liked me all the time and didn't know it herself. It took this thing to bring it out. The dear little sugar-brown! Ha, ha! The time was ripe long ago, and me, old-poke, asleep at the switch of the fire, the real reason for Eugenia's fury—her feeling that Deveaux had begun by taunting her and ending by making a fool of her.
So the next afternoon after the meeting at the library, Eugenia was preparing to go home when he called her back.
"Yes, Mr. Sylvan?"
A Little Talk
"Fr--let's have a little talk"
She looked at him in wonder, then sat down. Under the edge of her hat the shining black curls tumbled over her brow more widely than ever, her eyes were big and bright with attention, her white teeth sparkled between rich red lips, and—— "God, but she's beautiful!" thought Sylvan.
He had a crazy impulse to pick her up and run away with her somewhere—Canada, Europe, South America.
"You know, Miss Ward, I've never said anything, but I've been thinking about you, a long time."
She frowned in perplexity. What was this—a proposal?
But as Sylvan went on talking she found that it was not a proposal but a proposition. She sat there in amazed disgust, too surprised, at first to be angry. Sylvan's usual keenness was blurred by emotion; he thought the look on her face was that of a girl who yearned to yield but was afraid to. He had seen such a look before: she was not the first young girl in his experience. The more he talked the more beautiful she seemed, and his good sense left him. In a few minutes he was just a great, passio-shaken brute with bulging eyes and slavering mouth.
Eugenia Is Terrified
Terrified, she sprang up, but he was between her and the door. She seamed and he clutched at her. He seized her arm and clutched over her mouth. She instantly bit his hand; it-did her no good.
"You love me! You love me!" he panted. "You love me--you know you do--I'll make you so!"
She fought and kicked; for an instant she bit his fingers away from her mouth and screamed. He closed her mouth again and pulled her behind the rolltop desk. She managed to snatch up an inkwell and throw it at his head. She missed him.
But something else did not miss. Something bright grazed her hair and crashed down on the madman's forehead. Syllan lost his hold on the girl and reeled. The bright thing crashed on his head again and he slumped to the floor.
She was a cane, and the heavy silverhead cane had Maximus Syllan always carried to impress his customers. It was in the hands of Bertrand Deveaux.
Eugenia took one look at Deveaux and fell in his arms, sobbing hysterically.
"You're all right, Gentle," he reassured her, "all right. Come sit down a moment, you're shaking all over, and no wonder. I knew it was about time for you to go home and was hanging round outside the office when I heard you scream."
Comforting Her
He comforted her a moment, keeping the cane firmly in his hand and his eye on Sylvan. Sylvan saw Deveaux and struggled to his feet. "Stay where you are, you swine!" warned Deveaux, brandishing the cane. "Make one move and I'll crack your skull."
Sylvan tottered back against the

wall with two ugly bruises on his forehead. A devil's hate was in his eyes as he glared at Deveaux.
"See here, you hog," grated Deveaux, "I hope I never see you again, but if I do you'd better give me a wide berth."
"Never fear, young man, you'll never see him again," said a voice.
All three of them turned. Sylvan gasped, went pale and clung to his desk for support.
The speaker was a square-shouldered man with a gray mustache and a derby, and behind him were two others who looked even more formidable.
The man who had spoken tock from his pockets a pair of objects that looked like bracelets but didn't act like them.
"Put out your hands, Jim Glint," he said, sternly.
Unmasked at Last
"You sure chose a fancy name, all right, but you were Jim Glint when you committed forgery and bigamy in Los Angeles and made your getaway. You've shaved off your mustache and goatze, but we've caught up with you, even if it took two years to do it. Now back you go to Los Angeles."
"No, no! You've made a mistake. I'm Maxim—"
"Jim Glint, put out your hands or well, make you."
Sylvan put out his hands and the steel bracelets clicked about his wrists.
Eugenia's hysteries had ceased at this new and staggering development. She clung weakly to Deveaux, who had his arm around her. The detectives marched Sylvan out of the office.
"I'm Glint!" said Eugenia, as she attached them disappear.
"To be sure," said Deveaux. "That name Maximus Sylvan never did look right to me."
"Yes, you said so the first day you came here. You suspected that everything in the office was crooked."
"Everything but you," he corrected.
But I'm all wrong, too—I have no money.
"Oh, forget the money thing. I've forgotten it, so why can't you?"
forgotten it, so why came he?
She looked at him, breathing deeply. She didn't have far to look for his arm was still 'round her.

"B-Bertrand," she said, timidly.
"Bert-"
A pair of lips can do but one thing at a time, and their lips were too busy for talking.
Bertrand's worldly philosophy breathed its last sigh. He was going to commit matrimony again.

PHILADELPHIA, (Special)—Kid Chocolate, pride of Cuba, defeated Vidal Gregoria, of Spain in a whirlwind ten round bout before 20,000 persons in Shibe Park last Wednesday night.
When the referee' announced after the duel that Chocolate was the winer many of the fans booed the decision, although it was easy to see that Chocolate had outboxed and outpunched this Spanish lad. Chocolate boxed prettily, while Gregoria was wild and didn't know what it
In the first few rounds Chocolate had Gregorio at will using mainly rights to the body. The Spanish yudungster kept coming in for more and he got what he needed the eighth, he was. The verge of a knockout, when Chocolate caught him with a stinging right to the arm.
The Spanish boy looked more like a fighter last Wednesday than he did in any other game. All through the bout he rained and th' retarded Chocolate's style somewhat, but not enough to allow Gregoria to cop the decision. Chocolate weighted 11 3-4 and Gregoria. 111 Mev Beaton
In the ten round semi final George Courtney was the strong man, so strong that McVey Harlem middleweight and was awarded the decision after ten furious rounds of fighting.

Wallace's famous right hand wasn't much in evidence. Flowers did most of the work, but lost the decision for his trouble.
A native of New Orleans, Marcell got his first real baseball experience with the Dallas, Texas. Black Giants, having ability as a pitcher as well as ability to play third base.

Learn Your Real Condition
Our laboratory tests of blood, urine and other secretions give you immediate and positive knowledge of your disease. These methods differ greatly from the examination of urine made by the ordinary family doctor. Our laboratory tests are often sufficient for determining the state of general health, but for an accurate diagnosis of a special analysis must be made. If you want to know the state of your health or weakness you should consult a real specialist who confirms his opinion and diagnosis of your condition by a laboratory analysis of your blood. If you cannot afford to take chances with your doctor, you cannot afford to take chances with your doctor. When you come to our offices to have these tests made, all will be made so plain to you that you will be able to understand the condition, and you will thereby be enabled to realize just what our direct treatment will do. Knowing this you will want to co-operate with us in securing the very best results. The time to complications is delay. Do not invite complications by delay.

There seems to be blame rested as well, and from present indication death unless it is made more at this time, which was hardly more last year.

NEWS FROM THE WEST COUNTY G. Hueston, of the National Basket Hooster leader as he says:
"The Negro National Baseball in the playing season, the schedule for 1920, the included the playing of six of the first half of our playing season the worst playing conditions, sinned them to two-thirds of the national section of our country, beginning of the season with re-weeks, means that it has been in the best playing condition; depends on the work for financial success, it is league has been very greatly hardened.

The meet must be more interesting and efficient it to survive.
NEWS FROM THE WEST comes to this desk, from Prexy W. G. Hueston, of the National Baseball League. Hear ye the Hoosier leader as he says:
"The Negro National Baseball League is well on its way in the playoffs. The module of the first half of our baseball season for 1929, the same ending July 4. We have concluded the playing of six of the ten series—which constitutes the first half of our playing season. We have been beset with the worst playing conditions, as the weather is concerned, since the league ten years ago by our Hoosier and his associates.
before.
In four out of the six series played, our teams have either been rained out, or has been seen on the field. First, it is to be remembered that two-thirds of our playing area is in the northern section of our country, and to be handicapped at the beginning of the season. Second, it is to be remembered that it has been impossible for our teams to be in the best playing condition; and in as much as our league depends practically on about three of the seven days of the week for finance, that this side of our country is very greatly handicapped.
"However, notwithstanding these conditions and the inequalities of the schedule, due to the park conditions, we are, in my opinion, presuming the highest of the league, not which teams are opposed, the playing of each series it matters not which teams are opposed, the public knows that either team playing has opportunity to win, and as the season advances this condition will be more apparent, thus insuring to the public the highest type of competition. For our admitted that the class of baseball played in our league is
"The National Negro Baseball League deserves to live for reasons other than just because it furnishes good sport. The league furnishes employment to several hundred young women of well over $200,000. Many of these young men are college students, and in this way, earn the money to pay for their education. In order to thus favor these young men, the team owners in many instances, put themselves in front several weeks late each season in order to keep up with their studies which has resulted in several instances in destroying the team's (to which they belonged) opportunity to win the pennant. Our league has given evidence sufficient to be depended upon that, as a going concern, we are permanent and we come now to the place where we feel that we have justified the right to appeal to the public for support. Why? "First, "We fourteen years have kept faith with the public, we are permanent, our published schedule, though at times to do so has cost, the respective team owners thousands of dollars.
"Second. We have cleaned up the conditions surrounding baseball so that it is respectable to attend a game. Public gambling has been absolutely eradicated and will be kept so fortunately and driven in an appropriate manner in the same when reported to the league officials with sufficient proof, are forever barred from any further attendance at the games.
"Third. Owners, managers and players have submitted themselves to rules of discipline, which assures that the games are played in pleasant and comfortable conditions. What more could the public demand?
Does some good brother volunteer an answer?
THERE SEEMS TO BE some difference of opinion on the matter of whether or not Joe Rainey should be retained or will be retained at Lincoln university as track coach next year.
Sentimentality argues that Rainey should be retained, if only for what he has done in the past in giving Lincoln a great track team. Economy insists that with the coming of Bill Taylor himself and the great Penn Beauregard, there is really no LOGICAL reason for having a second man. Ted Walls, and another assistant, yet to be named, will aid Taylor in football, and if there is such a thing as college baseball by next year, Walls will look for the Taylor the entire time to coach the track team.
In view of the tendency to have all coaches members of the faculty, it seems that the Lincoln heads are on the right track, yet there does seem to be a little irony in giving the cold shoulder to one who has been a great time of need.
THERE SEEMS TO BE some difference of opinion on the matter of whether or not Joe Rainey should be retained or will be retained at Lincoln university as track coach next year. Sentimentality argues that Rainey should be retained if only for what he has achieved. Lincoln is a great track team. Economy insists that with the coming of Bill Taylor, himself a track man and Penn Relays hero, there is really no LOGICAL reason that he should be retained. That would mean another assistant, yet to be named, will aid Taylor in football, and if there is such a thing as college baseball by next year, Walls will look after that too, giving Taylor the entire time to coach. In view of the tendency to have all coaches members of the faculty, it seems that the Lincoln heads are on the right track, yet there does not seem to be a downside in giving him a cold shoulder to one who has been a great help in time of need. So as we understand it, Lincoln is going to surprise the squawking public by retaining Joe Rainey.

If he is, however, it is certainly that he will land the berth, and West will go to policing medicine at Washington, Pa.
NO PESSIMISTIC OUTREACH, says Grailmand Rice, national authorsity, should come from those who would speak of colleges in the major colleges and universities in the land. Dusenberg college athletic program. Quite a little of it is going on around the country, but conditions in the leading universities are so much better than they were years ago that no reason exists for any pessimistic outray.
From time to time one gets fairly direct evidence that certain professors are either proselytizing athletic talent or paying certain stars in one fashion or another.
The Iowa case in the Western Conference has stirred up an endless amount of argument as to how many universities and colleges are either proselytizing athletic talent or paying for it, either directly or indirectly. But there is always some kink in any form of direct proof. Conditions will always be something like this as long as so many take their college report with such feverish intensity—especially where football is common.
Few get steamed up over a track meet or a baseball game, lacrosse and other intercollegiate efforts, but football is another matter.
You happen to mention the names of three or four good backs in the paper a dozen or so letters arrive at once from indignant old grads who want to know why you left out Whois of Whatzis, who always has those mentioned outlaced. Most of the proselytizing is done by individual alumni who place keep an observing eye on all the young talent popping up.
"Only a few days ago I heard one old grad saying bitterly that a certain young star was headed for his university, but the university had sent him a letter," a position paid all expenses and left a message on the internet. This was true or not is something else. But he believed it. With the growth of crowds and gate receipts and publicity there is bound to be a certain amount of collegiate scandal, and a lot of it will be true."
WE PAUSE TO CORRECT the eminent Norfolk Journal and in regard to its editorial comment concerning the suspension of Seminary and College from the C.I.A.A. Comparing the Seminary and College from the Iowa, recently spanned from the Big Ten, the publication says: "It seems to us mehow foolish to deny an athlete support when he is instructed in bringing hundreds or thousands of dollars into the university."
And therein lies the difference between the two schools, charges against Iowa assert that the SCHOOL subsidized its athletics, while charges against Seminary claim that the ATHLETES one pro teams around the countryside in order to fatten their individual purses. Between the two, there is no comparison.
WHILE ON THIS MATTER of coaches, we pass on, for what it worth the dope on the Howard situation, which as you now know, has been definitely against the re-employment of Dr. Chandler. Verdell, a young man in the department of physical education at Northwestern university, we believe, is being considered as the chief nominee for the post, but we hear that it is not certain whether he will be available by fall if he is, however, it is probable he will be available by birth, and West will go to practicing medicine at Washington, Pa.

NO PESSIMISTIC OUTCRY, says Granland Rice, national sports expert and a peak of athletics in the major colleges and universities of the land.
Discussing college athletics of today, Mr. Rice says:
'The Iowa case in the Western Conference has stirred up an endless amount of argument as to how many universities and colleges are either proselytizing athletic talent or paying certain athletes in the major colleges and universities of the land.
"This is something beyond proof. Quite a little of it is going on around the country. But conditions in the leading universities are so much better than they were some years ago that they are not likely for any postseason action.
"From time to time we have fairly direct evidence that certain collegiate sports are going out after their talent and paying for it, either directly or indirectly. But there is always some time in any form of direct proof. Conditions will always be followed, and the athlete will be given a sport with such feversian intensity—especially where football is concerned.
"Few get steamed up over a track meet or a baseball game, lacrosse and other intercollegiate efforts, but football is another matter.
"If you happen to mention the names of three or four good halfbacks in the paper a dozen or so letters arrive at once from indignant old grads who want to know why you left out Whozits of Whatzits, who always has those mentioned outclassed. The prescripting is done by individual alumni, who in various places keep an observing eye on all the young talent popping up.
"Only a few days ago I heard one old grad saying bitterly that a certain young star was headed for his university, but another student was sitting at the desk paid all expenses and is a few dollars on the side. Whether this was true or not is something else. But he believed it. With the growth of crowds and gate receipts and publicity there is bound to be a certain amount of collegiate scandal, and a lot of it will be true."

WE PAUSE TO CORRECT the eminent Norfolk Journal and Guide in regard to its editorial comment concerning the suspension of Virginia Seminary and College from the C.I.A.A.
Comparing Seminary with the University of Iowa, recently some Big Ten men, the publication says: "It seems to us somehow foolish to pay a royalty when what is in mental in bringing hundreds or thousands of dollars into the school's coffers."
And there lies the difference between the two schools. Chancellor said that the SCHOOL subsidized its athletics, while charges against SCHOOL played on pro teams around the countryside in order to fatten their individual pursues. Between the two, there is no comparison.

MAY NAME H.U. COACH
AT MEETING FRIDAY
NEW RULE BARS WEST
WASHINGTON—With the announcement of the president and the Board of Athletic Control of Howard University, the faculty members of the faculty of the department of physical education, the name of Dr. Charles West, last year's coach, was wiped out by the white team, which focused on four or five men who are considered possibilities as his successor.
Prominent among the names being considered is that of Thomas Verdell, senior at Northwestern University Verdell, a star football player at the Evanston school, and this team, and is considered by many, as one of the most likely applicants for the Bison post. There are, however, under consideration the names of several men who have not made application for the job and it is possible, that should one of them accept, it will meet with the names of the athletic author at Howard.
A meeting of the Board of Athletic Control has been called for Friday, and at that time it is felt that a definite choice will be made. Already the N.P.P. has neglected Negro Press dispatch says that Verdell has been named, assistant football coach and instructor in physical education at Howard.

UNCOVER NEW PITCHER
Everett, Florida Youngster,
Makes Good With Lincoln.
PHILADELPHIA — Two Pacific
Coe players, have strengthened
the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic
City, and Ben Taylor's team is
looking better.
Connie Day, who has been east before
and who starred in past years with
Saltimore, Harrisburg and other
teams, is on schedule for the Grey
and Joe Walker has replaced
Eggleston and Bobby Williams at third
base. Walker is 22 and has played
for several years with Winter league
teams in Los Angeles.
One of the surplus of the season
has been the batting of Ben Lindssey
and his sprightly fielding. Luther
Pearrell has resigned from the league
since he secured an appointment as
a traffic cop in Atlantic City. George
Carr and Ping Garner will be
will be set for the season.
An unheralded pitcher from Jacksonville, Everett, joined the Lincolns recently and made his name in the game. He no runs and six hits. Connie Rickett has demonstrated that he is one of the smartest hurlers in the game by his work thus far. Indeed, the whole Lincoln team has been a sensation. Henry Hewlett is proving right to the title of Old Master. Now just Nam Washington, Dolly Gray and Charlie Smith shape up as the best cutfield in the league both in hitting and fielding. In infield, Riggs and Scales are aces with the latter leading the pack in home runs. Wilson and Dixon
The big bats of Jud Wilson and Rap Dixon have begun their season for the Baltimore Ravens and the keeping of this pair is the Sox up there. Script Lee, cast aside by Hildale in 1928, was not expected to be anything but a relief hurler but the Washington fisherman has been one of the best
Old Joe Williams and Stam Streeter have been pitching wonderful games for the Grays who have been handicapped by the dereliction of Stevens and Gardner. When these two problems are settled for the Posey menherm, things will look up for the Equestrian. Beckwph, Cannady Equine are swinging along at a 400 batting clip and Jap Washington and Owens are not far behind.
Highpockets Hudspeth is demonstrating that a lot of baseball is left in his pallet after the Glan Darble has bordered on the marvelous and he has been a most timely hitter. In the absence of Mackey, who returns to duty June 24, Joe has been well and well the pinches. The power of the bats of Judy Johnson, Oscar Charleston and Dihigo has been felt by opposing mounders without numbers but the hill has, pitched some remarkable games fitting in well with the efforts of Strong, Cockrell and Cooper. Clif Carter on the injured roll, is ready to take his turn. The holdback of the Cubans has been to round into form. Then, too, he has been affected by the absence of San. Omes, Bejerano, Mellillo, Bragan and others. But so far he has not been to hill hit its stride. The new men—Ramos and Lamberto, have made good and the club will never be a setup with Oscar, Levi, Fabre, Perez, Alfonso, Baro and Fernandez on its rostrade.

The Imperial Eagles triumphed over the Twin Oak Giants, Sunday by a 9 to 5 score, the game being featured by the pitching of Hudson and the hitting of Forest and McClure.

With Connie Day and Jess Walker in the lineup, the Bacharach Giants, with Ben Taylor at the helm, will take the field against the Black Sox in a double-header at Maryland Park, Sunday.
The Bees have a much stronger team then they had when they dropped two contests to the locals here in May and with their lineup strengthened by several shifts they will make a bid for honors in the Sunday meeting. They are paying second base price of Bobbie Williams and Walker on in third in Mack Eggleton's place.
Lindsey Going Great
George Carr and Ping Gardner, however, will not play with the 'Shore team Sunday, as their suspension will not be lifted until June 24. Lindsey who spent last season with the Black Sox, is proving a valuable man to the Atlantic City team and has been hitting and fielding in great style.
It is probable that Yokely will draw the mound assignment in the first contest with the possibility that 'Red Ryan' or Script Lee will hurl the second contest. The loss of Luther Farrell, of the Bacharachs, who quit baseball to become a traffic policeman at Atlantic City, will find the bulk of the Bears hurling on the shoulders of Jimmy Fields and 'Rats' Henderson. Ben Taylor will be seen at his familiar post on first base.

Armstrong Nine in 8th Straight Win
WASHINGTON—After getting off to a poor season's start Armstrong baseballers won by a 7-6 score from Phelps Vocational team, running their winning streak to eight, which incidentally, means nine in the last ten starts. After scoring in the first inning, when a base on balls and three hits meant two markers, Techit tied it when Nash sineled a pair across in the second. The Vermont Avenue lads kept pecking at the offering of the base popped up after being baffled with the twisting little pops or spinning rollers that eluded waiting indefenders until Nash retired in favor of Blakey with one out in the fifth anc. Phelps leading 5-3. Blakey's only pitch of the inning resumed in batter's hitting into a double play.
Tech won the game by bunching a double, a triple, a triple, single, and fielder's choice in the sixth four runs.

CUBAN STARS TWICE
WALLOP HILLDALE
DIHIGO STARS AT BAT
Mighty Oscar Charleston Fails to Impress as of Yore.
Spectators at the Maryland Park Sunday afternoon were treated to two wollongong games when the Cuban Stars twice downed the Hilldale Club, by the scores of 7-4 and 5-4, the night-cap going 11 innings.
The first game was unexciting until the third inning, when the Darby combination led, and the Cubans started their rampage that gave them three runs at the closing of that frame. The Cubans retaliated in the following inning when led by Fernandez who doubled to right field and was followed by Lambert who singled to centerfield, they seemingly received encouragement, and when they held their bats to host at the face of the inning, were leading the Darbyites by a 5-3 score
With the bases empty in the ninth inning, Dihigo, stellar shortstop of Hilldale, knocked a homer over the centerfield fence. Hilldale allowed the Cubans to score two runs by errors, when Dihigo muffed a fast liner in the fourth with the bases full. The Daisies were charged with two errors, when Dallard and Dihigo muffed a spike from Cooper the Cubans 10 hits, while Febre showed superiority by allowing the Darbyites only five hits for the nine innings. Both pitchers finished the contest strong with Cooper showing wildness in the closing innings. The contest was played in record time, consuming one hour and thirty five minutes.
Second Game 11 Innings
Showing a superiority to overcome leads the Cubans took the nightcap in the 11th inning after tying the score in the 9th inning. A error made by Hudspeth when he muffed a liner and was unable to return to the bag in time to nab the runner.
This game was by far the best and most exciting of the two contests. In their half of the ninth, the Stars led by Solis, who singled to centerfield. Correa who singed to right field Lamberto who singed, scoring Solis. Fernandiz fanned. Fabre was sent in to bat for Perez, and knocked a sacrifice to centerfield scoring Correa. Oscar singed to right field, tenth inning was nearly a one-two-three put on each side. In the eleventh Johnson walked. Charlesfined fanned. Dihigo singed to centerfield advancing Johnson to third. Lewis sacrificed to rightfield causing Johnson to score. Dihigo was out at second on a steal.
Rally In Eleventh
The Cubans started with Correa who singled to centerfield. Fernandiz fanned as Correa stole second. Lamberto was thrown out at first. Fabre, the next better singled to short, as Correa. Oscar singed to centerfield scoring Fabre and ending the game.
Records show that Hildale was charged with two errors while the Cubans made three. Oscar allowed the Darbybites 12 hits out of 40 times at the bat when he scored 11 hits to the bat. Lewis and Fernandez demonstrated strong arm stuff when they caught both games.
Lincolns Trim Black Sox Twice
BLACK SOX DROP TWO TO LINCOLN GIANTS
Baltimore Tossers Nosed Out in Two Fast Contests by Scores of 4-3 and 6-5.
SMITH HITS 3 HOMERS
NEW YORK—Charlie Smith, star outfielder for the Lincoln Giants, set a record for heavy batting in the American Negro League Sunday afternoon, June 9. when he hit three home runs and a double in Baltimore Black Sox at the Catholic Protective Oval. The Lincolnins won both games by the scores of 4-3 and 6-5, and went into a tie with the Baltimore team for first place in the League. Smith was responsible for three of his team's 4 runs in the first game. In the third inning, with Washington on base, he hit one over right field fence and he also hit two in the Browns' hit pitched for the local team, was in his best form and let the visitors down with seven scattered hits and 3 runs. Two of their runs came as a result of a home run by Dixon, in the eighth.
In the second game. Smith again demonstrated his hitting power. In the very first inning of this game he caught one of Scrip Lee's submarine balls and sent it over right field fence to score two runs. Then in the seventh, his two bagger scored Mortor who came to bat in the ninth inning and ended the game with a 6-5. Melton was substituting for Dolly Grav, who is out of the game with a bad leg.

game, deserves the excellent batting of

ball and made a double play, thus
ending the side.

THE GOOD 5¢ CIGAR
...THAT AMERICA NEEDED
Distributed by F. A. DAVIS & SONS, 119 S. Howard Street, Baltimore, Mo.
USES EITHER ARM
DALLAS, TEX—When Horace Cole, pitcher of the Dallas Black Giants in the Texas League, takes the mound, his opponents never know what kind of hurling they are going to face as the chunky moundsters can pitch equally with either an even lower quiver or until game time, which arm he will use.
In a recent series with Houston, Cole won three games in four days. He pitched right-handed in the first game, allowing seven hits, and in the 2nd game south-pawed his opponents in the second. He needed to win a game, pitching right-handed, allowing only three hits in ten innings.
LOCKES WIN, LOSE,
IN SUNDAY GAMES
Pound Oval Blues' Pitchers Hard to Capture First Contest, 18 to 4.
LOSE TO GIANTS
Baltimore Giants Rally to Win Game 5 to 3.
The Locke A. C. nine had an easy time defending the Oval Blues 18 to 4 score in the first game, Sunday, but when they stacked up against the Baltimore Giants they found the company a little faster, and as a result dropped the second game by 10.
The Insulator boys pounded the offerings of Fisher and Carter hard in the first contest, collecting a total of seventeen hits, which, coupled with errors by the Blues, allowed them to score in all but two of the games. She scored in the first inning, while the Blues were able to score two in the first and the remaining pair in the sixth.
Poor Base Runs
Poor base runs on the part of the Blues run at bat, and poor judgment when afield spolled many of their chances to score runs and to keep the opposition from tallying. In the fourth inning, poor fielding of a bunted ball by J. Savage and an paved the ball by J. Savage and scoring runs, while in the eighth, misjudgment of a short rap to centerline, allowed the blow to be translated into the hit that started a rally which netted four more runs.
Rally Falls
The Blues run in the eighth to rally when Whitehead was sent in pinch hit for Thomas. Hall had singled, Boardley had gained first base run an error by Savage in short, and J. Savage had walked, populating all of the bases. Boardley leading for a strike. Whitehead after having a long fly out to Widgeon who made a fine catch.
In the second game, Joe Lineberger, southpaw, taking his position in the pitcher's box instead of at first base, faced Pride, a former mate, in what developed into a pitcher's duel. The Lockes scored a run in the first inning and counted two more in the fifth. A seventh inning rally by the Baltimore Giants, however, temporarily rattled Lineberger, and when the smoke had cleared, the rally started by Dav. Giant second sacker, had resulted in enough runs to put the Giants in the van.

The may be include Helen Trigg and Avon Longa Liberny and Francis Noel, Charles Cepha, Bunce Dorsey, Lewis Banke and Gloria Stuart, but who is she?
Normal Excursion
Really, girie, the Normal trip down the bay was quite exciting. No one person owned another. Everybody meant the same to each other with the exception of a few couples.

Glarence Lee and Thurron Mallory were busy nursing their young

Yes, sir, the Balboheme kicked up a little Friday night. Sub-debts and debts from hither and thither witnessed this experienced amateur performance.

Avon Long sang "Mean To Me."—but who has been mean to him, now? Harrison Diggs sang "In My Mother's Eyes."
Light had taught him right—but who told him he was right. William Howard sang "I'm Alone"—but he wasn't. was he? Guess he was, though, because neither Ester Waters nor Marie Abrams was there.
The dances were tiltering. The spotlight, excited some of the participants, however, and they forgot to remember the next step. The way John T. Nicholson danced with one little lady. I began to doubt his affection for the Miss Hutchinson, but you never can tell. Such is the life of

Three years ago I became so bad I thought my time had come. My daughter, 18, did not see any use trying it, but I did and improved almost at once. I recovered entirely and have hundreds from former victims of asthma and bronchial cough. Their trouble left and never returned. Their letters and a booklet of vital information have been sent to Neor Medicine College, 591 State Life Blvd. Indianapolis. Ind. No matter how serious you feel, you should show the road to health.

Many are said to have taken a chance with the hope of winning a lot. All Are Lucky
