4th. 38th Year, Number 41 Entered in the Postoffice Second-Class Matter un HAL SOCIAL EQUALITY BUNK, DEPRIEST TELLS ROANOKE Audience Applauds as He Asks Where All Mulattoes Come From. KNOXVILLE CHEERS Crowd There Hears DePriest Condemn Separate Schools. Straight out from the shoulder. Oscar DePriest, Congressman, of Illinois, discussed social equality at Roanoke. Va. Sunday, and Knoxville, Tenn. Monday. In Roanoke. Mr. DePriest spoke under the auspices of the Eiks and C. Tillian Tolliver, president at the First Baptist Church. In Knoxville, 1,800 packed the auditorium to hear the Illinois Congressman. He was met at the train and escorted by crowds to his stopping place. Mr. DePriest said at Roanoke: "Social Fertility." "When I hear the question of social equality mentioned so much in America, I always mention where all the mulattoes come from. There has been social equality some where. This Sunlight Prejudice, and midnight cohabitation is something to think about. The mulattoes have increased over 200 cent in the last 30 years, so there must be some social equality somewhere. Prejudice is based on down right ignorance." Advocates Co-Education Advocacy I am currently in in or of Co. education, both among the black and white. If black and white boys were permitted to attend the same school, there would be more respect for each other, and less of this inferiority compared to William Hale Thompson, Mayor of Chicago, is the best friend the Negro has had since the days of Abraham Lincoln, and we are going to "our Congressman, Clifton A. Wood," a gentleman in every sense of the word, both in his office, and on the floor. I have never met the Negro man, who lives here. If I lived here I would vote for him myself. "In fact, I find all of the Congressmen gentleman, I would not want to be treated on social quality, but I do work together to promote your best interest. I would not give a 'takers' blessing" for Social Equalization. What the Negro needs is and will be make his own social equality" Legislation "Legislation for the Negro now is too plentiful; if there were not now, we would have the Jim Crow" laws now in many of our States, and the black and white boys and girls would not be attending separate schools. I know this not sound good in Virginia, but it is true." The Negro is on the threshold of political and civil emancipation in America; it may be twenty-five years or more before this is accomplished, but it is sure to come. We cannot educate our Black boys and girls without causing them to have respect for one another. But since you have separate schools, make them equal to the best in the Country, I am deadly opposed to separate schools for this reason, as long as Negro children are separately educated, they will be regarded as inferior. We must organize ourselves, we are treated differently from all other people in America, and we must view things differently. Race First, Party Second "As for myself, God made the Negro first, and then the Republican party afterwards, I owe my allegiance first to my race, and then to the Republican party. The debt that my father and mother owed the Republican Party has been paid, and I don't owe them one thing." Select the man who will best protect your interest and then vote for him, regardless if he is a Democrat, or a Republican, whether he be black or white. Know a man's politics, but if he is an American citizen should treated, stick to him, and back him with every effort. No Favored Amendment's: "I will not vote a dollar for the enforcement," the eighteenth amendment until the nineteenth; "he will put particular stress upon the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments; he will not for the Negro, but it shall be for the American citizens, both black and white." Pricha-ha. "Third people never get anywhere. If next Robert objected to having his office to mine, and he was the third." "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. . . . "And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor."

WOMEN LEAVE FIELDS FOR PROFESSIONS U.S. Report Shows Half Million Decline in Gainfully Employed. FACTORY WORK GAINS Decrease also Shown in Num ber of Domestics. WASHINGTON—Race women are deserving the farms and domestic service for factories, offices and professions, according to deductions made from a bulletin of the Women's Bureau, U. S. Department of Labor, just released and which gives a survey of industrial conditions among women in 15 states. More than a million and a half Negro women were gainfully employed in the United States in 1920 a decrease of almost half a million from the 1910, 1920, 1930s to this bulletin. Farm Decrease This sharp decrease of almost half a million in the number of Negro women employed at the two census dates is explained by the great decrease in agricultural figures as a whole, which resulted from the 1920 census being taken in January when little of that sort of work was done. The number of Negro census figures were collected in 1910 in April when farm work was at its best. The figures also show a decided decrease of 7.4 per cent in the number of Negro domestic and personal service for the decade. New Fields That the Negro woman is slowly but nevertheless steadily branching out into new industrial fields, is seen by the 1920 report which shows that even women of the age 7 and 8 are in agriculture, 10 in domestic and personal service, and 2 or 3 in other work, as compared with the 1910 report which shows for every 20 women, 10 or 11 employed in agricultural pursuits, 8 or 9 employed service and 1 in other fields of work. The greatest increase is noted in occupations requiring dexterity and skill, a considerable number having gone in for machine operating, while the number in the professions, clerical occupations and supervisory posts or positions requiring responsibility are far more numerous. Of the 1,571,289 Negro women employed in 1920, 612,261 were engaged in agricultural pursuits, 790,631 in domestic, and personal service. The number in other occupations. The number in public service clerical occupations has almost trebled in the last ten years. Wages Low Earnings were low, ranging from a median (half earning more and half less) of $3 in the lumber and veneer-industry in a survey by the CBOE to $30 in the general mercantile industry in a survey made in 1820. DR. H. B. TAYLOR WALKS OUT OF HOOD COLLEGE DR. H. B. TAYLOR WALKS OUT OF HOOD COLLEGE Invited to Frederick Meeting, Pastor Declines to be In- sulted. APOLOGY IS ASKED FREDERICK, Md.—Interrupted at dinner in the dining hall of Hood College where the Baltimore Synod is in joint session with the Woman's Synodical Missionary Society of the Presbyterian church, the Rev. Dr. H. B. Taylor, assistant pastor of Fifteenth Street Presbyterian church, Washington, left the building and the conference, Thursday. Dr. Taylor had registered and been assigned to his room, afterward attending the morning session, lunch hour, he was the dining room took his seat. Before the meal started, he was asked to the office and it was explained to him that the regulations of Hood College forbade the entertainment of people. Donors of Hood College buildings he was told, had expressly stated their gratitude to the students be permitted to use the dormitories or the dining room. Not Invited Dr. Taylor was also informed that colored ministers of the Synod which includes Presbyterian churches in Maryland, Dr. Lawrence, the governor and a northern Virginia, had been notified that they would not be welcome at the Hood College sessions. Dr. Taylor was advised to hunching quarters' in the town of Redick and to attend the business sessions of the conference usual. Instead, he withdrew his registration and left for his usual in Wash- Dr. Taylor Talks Dr. Taylor Dr. Taylor told the APRO-AMERICAN Friday, that was nothing else for him to do. He is secretary of the Washington Presbytery which included colored and white pastors in that city. He has not been able to attend the Hood College meetings for several years because they conflicted with his vacation year he deferred to attend. The committee of the Synod which meets on Friday, Dr. Taylor said, has two resolutions before it, one offering an apology to Taylor for his defiance, and one Frederick and the second, to move the conference to some other city for the next year. Fifteenth Street Church, the largest and most prominent basilisk in Washington, the Rev. Francis J. Grimke, for 37 years its pastor, is perhaps the most colorful and vigorous opponent of Jim crow and segregation in the Washington capital. Baltimore Pastors Not There The Rev. John T.

Dr. Walker, said, "and I am waiting to see what the committee is going to do. Its chairman is Dr. Hugh L. Hodges, pastor of First Presbyterian Church, "If this committee on place of next meeting selects Hood College again, it will place its stamp of approval on Jim crow. If they decide otherwise, it will be an evidence of their Christian spirit." **V Meet At Hood** Dr. Thomas Thomas I. Brown told the AFRO Friday that the student, V.M.CA.

BAR WHITE STUDENTS FROM RIVAL PROM GARY, IND—White teachers stood guard to bar a number of white students who wanted to attend a Junior prince school to have a boy and boy grads as a protest against faculty Jim Crow here last week. The dance was organized at the suggestion, it is said, of Principal C. S. Coons, white, who was quoted as telling the colored students to make their dance so good that the whites who would want to have them attend theirs. Faculty Jim Crow Although it was said a number of the white students had no objection to allowing colored students to attend school affairs, a faculty ban against mixed dances brought about the fight against this Jim Crow attitude. The student, who had been opposed to Jim Crow dances when they were inaugurated was the leader in the fight against the faculty order, the students voted to invite white Juniors to their affair. When several of the white students decided to attend school affairs, the students stood guard and prevented them from entering the hall. ST. LOUIS, Mo.—(ANP.)—Superstition among citizens here is not on a deline, according to the night market, the City Hall. A large per cent of the hundreds of colored and white visitors come to the 'morgue to touch the head of a dead person with the forefinger and so that it will bring them luck. One person recently came for that purpose because he wanted to see a girl on a day. A young white boy who was allowed to leave his home for the first time at night spent that awful evening at the morgue, and then times of clinching his good fortune. LOS ANGELES, Cal. — (ANP.)- Passing for white is on the increase among women and girls due to the few avenues of occupation open for them. According to the result of a recent investigation by the ANP. representative, there are colored girls working as salesmen, teachers, and department stores downtown. In shoe stores, Oriental beauty parlors, and similar places the subterfuge is practiced extensively and is seldom discovered. A man was discharged last week from the hospital after working for three years under a foreman who thought he was white. He became too clumsy and revealed enough of his history back in their mutual life to check on him. WASHINGTON, D. C.—It is not always in fiction and the moving pictures that a "good guy" takes the "fall" and gives his partner "a break" for the sake of the wife. Sometimes even in real life. Such is the case of Dennis Marshall, chubby little fellow, who with Charlie Jones made "whoopee" at the Night Club Bohemia, where society including members of Greek letter fraternities and sororites and the college boys were wont to play after dances and when the city offered no division. One night no so long ago Sergt. O. J. Letterman and his squad of liquor raiders decided to pay the club a visit. In order to find out before personally coming to the club whether "whoopee" was being made, he got a "stool pigeon" and sent him to make a purchase of a half-pint of ale" liquor at the club. Then the purchase, the "stool pigeon" returned to Sergt. Letterman and reported everything okay. Letterman and his raiding squad went immediately to the Chelsea club to retrieve the doorwork. The orchestra was ordered to keep on playing and the dancers were told to go on with their dance. Meanwhile the liquor shoppers searched the club, and the musicians immediately took with them employers and employees, officers of the corporation operating the club, entertainers, waiters and checkroom workers, but permitted the guests to Marshall and Jones were indicted for sale and illegal possession. The case was called for warfare to be called for jury duty. Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy, who was to preside at the trial, and Assistant United States Attorney William H. Collins, who was to preside at the trial, James A. Purcell, attorney for Marshall arose, asked leave of the court to withdraw his former plea of not guilty for his client and entered into a plea of not guilty. The case was referred to the probation officer for investigation. The case against Jones was not-pressed. Last Saturday Marshall was brought to sentencing. Everybody expected him to be given a suspended sentence and put on probation. But Chief Justice McCoy just could not be made to believe that Jones was dropped and out of curiosity he decided to give Marshall a year in jail. 24th Infantry are Rifle Champions WASHINGTON, (C N S)—Scooring fifteen points more than its nearest competitor, the 24th Infantry small bore rife队 knocked out of the regional championship match recently staged at various posts throughout the United States.

Senatogz from South Carolina-1924-31- whose infamous "Niggers in the White House" poem, was expunged from the Congressional Record after it had been termed obscene and indecent. Note the large nose, the apparent florid complexion and the long hair. Like many a southerner insane on the Negro question, Blease says and thinks he's a friend of the Negro. Actually his usual conversation is how to keep the Negro down and how to get Jim-crow cars in the District of Columbia. He's been elected to public office eight times and defeated eleven times. He boasts of no constructive legislation, but while governor of Using the reasoning employed by Walter White in his new book, "Rope and Faggot," it's not unlikely to suppose Cole has a few drops in him of the blood of the Negro whom the hates so heartily. EXCURSION HEAD SEEKS END OF FALSE REPORTS Passengers. Referred to as "Kitchen Mechanics." Determined to halt the publication of false and misleading statements about his pleasure boat, the "Avalon," Captain George Brown has instructed his attorneys to institute $50,000 damage suit against the Baltimore Sun and Evening Sun as a result of a news story appearing in the evening edition of those publications, Saturday. The specific news story to which Captain Brown takes exception and will ask the court to take judicial notice of, declared in its headline that the boat's hawser had fouled. In the story it stated that the Avalon had been for this reason tied up and again tangled the servant problem in Roland Park and Guilford, white residential sections. The fact is, Captain Brown stated, the local Shriner held the excursion down the bay on that evening and it was by direct request from them that the boat delayed its return to the city. There was no boat trouble of any kind, he said. Captain Brown also called attention to a recent news story in the Sunspaper which referred to his passport as a "machine." Following his protest and notice that he intended to take legal action representatives were called in to compromise the matter, the Avalon owner stated this he refused, and instructed Nice, Nice and Herman to proceed with this attack, to proceed with the court action.

TENT "BLOWS" DOWN S.S. Congress Prevented from Meeting in City Stadium. Persuaded by a 4.4 Colt revolver, the Revs: A. J. Payne, C. R. Coel, J. R. Butler and Wm. H. Young, a Baltimore delegation to the National Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. Congress, in Charleston, S. C. had to submit to "Jim-Crow" in North Carolina this week. The delegation, which was motoring back to Baltimore, had stopped at a filling station in North Carolina to gas, and one of the party asked the attendant was it possible to get a lunch. He was told to go inside. They went into the lunch stand, where maintained two tables and a counter, where they found a girl in charge. They ordered coffee and sandwiches, which were placed on the counter before them with instruction to take them out. Not know, then, were to be subjected to Jim Crow, one minister declared that in that case they would not take it. Immediately the girl called her father and brother, who reached the men before they had gotten into their "Don't get in that car until you pay for that lunch," he yelled. In astonishment the men stood and looked. When they did not seem to get quickly enough, the son, who had appeared on the scene shouted, "get it, dad." Immediately the father reached inside of the filling station and brought out a bottle. With the Rev. A. J. Payne leading, the men paid. Don't Count a D— But the father had experience that the Baltimore ministers had had with Jim Crow since they left on their trip from Charleston to Baltimore. Nash vaults, carrying a woman driver and man, had been trailing the ministers' car, a Cadillac, and driven by a boy, when the whites discovered that they were trailing a car full of colored folk. In some cases, the driver was riding behind colored folk, so the driver made an attempt to pass them. In doing so, the Nash struck the Cadillac and caressed into a field. The driver was blowing for half an hour," declared the angry man in the car with the woman. At this moment a white man standing in a field nearby declared that he had heard a woman crying, told him that they had four witnesses in the car who would testify to the opposite. "Your four won't mean a D—down here," he said. After a one-sided and disheveled The first trouble, however, was when they found that the meeting place of the Congress in Charleston had to be changed, because some time during the night preceding opening session, the arrangement arranged at the diplomatic stadium had "blown" down. Leaders in Charleston who understood the situation, believed that either Klu Xuk or hostile whites in the neighborhood of Charleston held there, had helped that tent to "blow" down. Rev. Gray Used Tact The Rev. Junius Gray, pastor of Psalmist Baptist Church, who also carried a delegate to his church, had no trouble at all on the trip. He was surprised, he said, that men coming from Baltimore, where segregation in white eating places is the rule, should expect different treatment. He said, "and received only the most courteous treatment." "Numbers" War Breaks Out Anew in D.C. Why don't you say goodbye to rheumatic pain? Forget you ever had rheumatic pain!

WASHINGTON—A feud for control of "numbers" operation between colored and white hook-makers is blamed for the stabbing of T. Smith, 30, in the 600 block of T street here Tuesday morning. Smith is in a serious condition, while Edgar Williams and his alleged accomplice, Carl Rivers, have been arrested and charged with the stabbing. Police say Smith ran a "numbers" court for a large syndicate and believe that the stabbing is a breach in the generally known agreement in which they colored "number" bankers the southwest, a part of the northwest sections.

Only easily revealed the piles of change, the spoils for a day's activity in the "numbers", which the party of six was counting of counters, had intruded. Remembering that their soft-drink and shoeshine parlor had for years been used for church massages, they began to pray.

NAACP INSISTS ANTI-LYNCHING LAW IS NEEDED Memorandum to this Effect Sent to Hoover Enforcement Committee. Disfranchisement in the South, Disrespect for Law. NEW YORK. — Insisting that a federal antitrusting law is necessary for the enforcement of constitutional guarantees to the American Negro, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, asked President Hoover's Law Enforcement Commission to include lynching, disfranchisement, peonage and mob violence in its investigation, Monday. The brief, signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the Association, was sent to George W. Wickersham and states that "lynching constitutes the quintessential form of law breaking and brutal disregard for human life and Constitutional Guarantees in the United States." Asks Representation The Association asks that it be given a hearing before that body. The brief also calls sites as the treatment of residential segregation ordinances in Atlanta, Georgia, and in Louisiana, both in defiance of a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court. The accommodation ordinances are also violated in Jim Grow accommodations on southern railways, says the brief, where "equal accommodation" is not given colored passengers, "and no pretence is made to offer them accommodations" to the states that "colored women and children, as well as men, are often obliged to go without sleeping accommodations at night, and colored passengers generate arbitrary facilities and opportunities for refreshment." Disfranchisement Disfranchisement of colored citizens in the South, says the brief, is accomplished by "plain intimidation and terrorization, as well as by grossly discriminatory administration." Nothing we think, it will be conceded, so contributes to disrespect for law and person, as the violation of rights of groups of citizens and of individuals composing those groups, especially those of blacks, especially of depriving them of their one means of redress in a democracy, the ballot. "The legality of the entire legislative structure of the United States is qualified by the disfranchisement of blacks, especially of disproportionate representation accorded the states guilty of this practice, and we believe that no thorough examination of lawlessness and crime in America can ignore this fundamental guarantee and of the nation's legal fabric."

WASHINGTON, D.C.-The immigration quotas which will be effective July 1 under the national origins system, will not affect the number of darker peoples to be admitted annually from any nation or geographical area, it is shown by the proclamation of President Hoover putting the new system in force. The provisions of the immigration act of 1924 which had been postponed from going into effect, were approved by the Senate before it recessed against the expressed desire of President Hoover who opposed the original origins quota in his acceptance during the presidential campaign. 100 Yearly Limit The countries or a.aeas whose people belong to the darker races have a higher percentage in the system at the minimum of 100 immunists a year.

Conference Opens in Cleveland The Nation's Biggest All Negro Weekly. Presence of DePriest, Only Race Gain in Special Session From Legislative Viewpoint, Congress Was a Disappointment. Farm Relief Measure Not Expected to Benefit Race Group Much. WASHINGTON, D.C.-This special session of Congress, which began its summer recess, June 19, was of especial interest because of the presence Representative Oscar DePriest, Republican of Illinois, it being the first session in 28 years in which a colored person has sat as a member either house.

They included only a section of the relief of agriculture, a section of the tariff, the passage of the census-reportation bill, and the repeal or fulther extension of time in which the origins of the immigration law should go into effect. The two months' special session enacted farm relief legislation, initiated tariff revision, refused to repeal the national origin law, the imminent reportation bill, and passed the reportation bill.

Tinkham Amendment Fails The census-reapportionment bill became a law without the Tinkham amendment which would have reduced representation of Southern farmers in the Tinkham franchisement of the Negro citizens. While the House was considering the census-reapportionment bill, Representative George H. Tinkham, Republican, or Massachusetts, got his vote. It was finally killed with the Hoch amendment which would have excluded allens from the count upon the reapportionment of the of Representatives will be based. The shift in Negro population from the rural South to the industrial centers of the East and Middle West since the last reapportionment of the House floor in gas in the representation for the urban centers to which they have moved and a loss to those states which suffered from the migration. **Loss Distributed** The states which will lose representation and the number of seats that will be lost are estimated by the Census Bureau as follows: Missouri, 3; Mississippi, Indiana, Iowa and Kentucky, 2 each. New York, New Dakota, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, Alabama, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine and Massachusetts, 1 each. The following gains are estimated: California, 6; Michigan, 4; Ohio, 3; New Jersey and Texas, 2 each. Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, North Carolina, Oklahoma and Washington, 1 each. The test of reapportionment, so far as its political effect on colored persons is concerned, will come in the manner in which the state increases or decreases in representation. If the large Negro districts in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Tennessee are left intact, Dr. Prestiff may be able to increase his race as members of the House. The Tariff Bill The tariff bill passed by the House pleases no one. The bill increases duties on some 1,000 items and adds perhaps 100 to the cost of living. The Senate Finance Committee is holding hearings and will probably rewrite the bill and eliminate its worst features.

"As a more or less detached observer of Negro life in this country and of the friction between Negroes and whites, I am aware that one of the reasons the Negro is under the handicap of as much discrimination as he is, is because he has never learned to fight back. Though he has never been in this country has been in the course of anthropological research, I have again and again encountered situations in which only the refusal to undergo a fight or give up a right was the cause of the Negro's being deprived of that right."

The campaign was carried on with great indignity and the results are visible in the annual returns. I believe that it has accomplished more than any Federal law could have accomplished. The Southerners have been ashamed by their lynching record and that is better than trying to use them." "Certainly it deserves the support of every man who believes in fair play, not the more militarized, not the least Negro in the most backward State has full equality under the law with the most influential man, not the most perhaps, may be realized, but it is certainly while to struggle for it."

The only reason that it does not is perfectly plain: It has not the means to do so. "But these twenty years of its activity have only reinforced in me the intense feeling that I had in 1908, that an organization like this, militantly led, uncompromising, to the rights of the Negro, is the prime need of the colored people in America. I think I am prouder of being one of the first five to found this association than almost anything else in my long career of medding in other people's business."

DUBOIS Crisis Editor' Outlines Profound Changes at Cleveland, in Keynote Speech. 20TH ANNIVERSARY CLEVELAND. — The American Negro stands on the threshold of a new era, having won a revolution in public sentiment during the past twenty years, declared Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Crisis magazine, delivering the opening keynote address Wednesday, before the twentieth anniversary conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The conference will be continued here through July 2. Reviewing the twenty years of the Advancement Association's activity, Dr. DuBois contrasted the different situation of colored citizens of this country twenty years ago with the advantages they have won and now enjoy. 20 Years Ago "Twenty years ago," declared Dr. Du Bois, "there was scarcely a reputable scientist who dared to assert the equality of men and women, particularly. Africa was assumed to have no history and there was only one college in the United States that offered a course in psychology, Dunbar and Chestnut and others were writing but they were looked upon as exceptional and no one for a moment dreamed of counting American women as part of the literature gift of America. "At this time in 909, they were lynching three Negroes, even weeks before the 19th century, and had been lynched at the rate of 76 a year. The Supreme Court had never passed or, indeed, the 19th Amendment, southern states negatively demanded the repeal even of the 14th as Texas did. "Tillman and Dardaman were in their glory. Vardaman was in 1890 better equipped to understand the scheme of this government and to vote intelligently than any Negro." Republican Party "George White, the last of his race to sit in Congress until 1929, left Congress in 1901. The attempt of the Negro party in the Republican party was laughed at in 1908, vigorously denounced in 1914 and regarded as treason to the Negro race even as he was killed by a reputable authorities that the fate of the Negro race in the United States was extinction and death, and that what tuberculosis would finish. And finally, it was said by the Negroes themselves, almost unanimously, that real-effective organization of black men in America was impossible. 'But we disregarded the advice of our friends,' we pushed our way into the courts. We demanded the right vote. We urged and pushed our children into college. We encouraged our students. We studied African history and in season and out of season we declared that the colored races were destined at least to share in the heritage of their New Generation "We stand today. . .t the threshold of a new generation, with 12,000 of our children in college, in the American literature and art, with the reappearance of the black man in Congress and, what is more important, in the president. Negro vote We have recognized Negro leadership in education, science and in legal defense. And our defense to be successful among people, no civilized, American can deny." Mise Ovington Speaks In commenting on the history of the association, Miss Mary White Oyston declared that the work of the organization in future would probably follow the same. "An oppressed minority has a slow task to win full citizenship. It will gain its rights only by inch by inch, like a knife, we are able to work. Work is probably if it is done in the dark." Those who sent greetings to the conference were: Prof. Gilbert Murray, of Oxford England. Prof. Warburg, of New York. Prof. H. L. Waldo Frank, Will W. Alexander, Charles A. Geard, Countess Cullen, Oswald Garrison Villard and others. 'Dan' Jackson Estate $75,000 CHIGAC—With the exception of a few minor bequests, the entire estate, valued at $75,000, of the late Daniel M.

MACHINE GUNS END GARVEY 'FACTION RIOT Looks Like Civil War as Uniformed Groups Fight With Rifles, Sabres and Bottles. Opposing Groups Clashed Over Possession of Hall. NEW YORK—A small civil war was quashed here Sunday night when two opposing factions of Marcus Garvey followers staged an empty rifle, sabre and bottle fight over the possession of Liberty hall at 120 W. 138th St. It required a wiot call and machine gun display on the part of police to halt the fight between 600 participants and sent seven to the hospital more or less inquired. The Injured Those reported injured and taken to the Harlem hospital were: John Spalding, 66, 344, 145th street; John Spalding, 66, 299, 145th street; John Doublen, 26, 625 Lenox avenue; Daniel Israel, 27, 105, 1 W. 138th street; Alexander Edan, 49, 165 Henry street; Brooklyn, William Grant, 29, 165 Henry street; Francis Hurfranc, 30, 358 W. 127th street. Two Factions Some time ago dissension among the Garveytes caused a split and a group seceded and formed the Universal Association, using as headquarters a basement adjoining Liberty Hall. The Garvey club, it is said, rented the hall from month to month. Taking advantage of this situation, the Universal Association signed a lease with a real estate firm and paid a month's rent in advance. It was when they came to take possession of the basement night club with the Garvey club, which was holding a drill in the place. According to eve witnesses the Garvey club clad in their uniforms and bearing empty rifles and sabres, fairly swept the Universal Association into the street where he latter, also in uniform, engaged them in a free for all fight. Machine Guns The first contingent of police and detectives who answered the riot call found themselves unable to deal with the situation and it was necessary to send for a machine gun squad who read the riot .ct and threatened to mow down the fighters, before the disturbance was quelled. A majority of the members of both opposing factions are said to be West Indians.

PHILADELPHIA. - Negroes are in Mississippi only through good will, Laurence C. Jones, head of Piney Woods School, wrote Anne Biddel Stirling of this city, who published his letter in the local press. Jones' letter in part is as follows: "You will remember several years ago I sent you a letter about some one's cow jumping over our wire fence and getting caught. It died and the owner made us pay for it. You know, down here when a white man demands you do something it is wise to do it rather than incur his displeasure. So we paid for the cow. Sick Mule "The other day a man brought a sick mule to the blacksmith shop to have shoes taken off and one of our blacksmiths pulled off the shoes. A AFRO SPEAKER [Image of a man in a suit and tie]. Dr. A, J. Mitchell, field secretary for Morgan College, was the principal speaker at the Saturday AFRO Club meeting. The Afro American, Baltimore, Saturday, June 29, 1929 and the owner made us pay for it. You know, down here when a white man demands you do something it is wise to do it rather than incur his displeasure. So we paid for the cow. Sick Mule "The other day a man brought a sick mule to the blacksmith shop to have shoes taken off and one of our blacksmiths pulled off the shoes. A week later the owner came to the shop and the mule was pulled and the cause of it was because our blacksmith pulled the mule's shoulder out of joint in taking off the shoes. Regardless as to how absurd that sounds, he demanded $75 because of the loss of his mule. Kill Every—— "A few nights ago a white man driving at an intemperate rate of speed ran into one of our cars and smashed up both cars rather badly. He jumped out, pulled out his pistol and handled the .boys pretty roughly and demanded that his car be repaired or he will kill every nigger in Simpson County." "Although we are right in both cases, it would not do to take it to court. A lawyer would cost almost as much as is demanded and the costs would mount up, besides making enemies. We are here only through good will." Anne Shirley makes this further comment: "With a halter around; his neck on one occasion; placed there by strangers through the facile misunderstanding that dogs the color Jones was from luring by a chance neighbor who recognized his worth and the fine quality of work he was turning out. His letter is a commentary on the heartbreaking difficulties in the path of Southern Negro educators."

Was this "brokenhearted letter" a farewell or merely a come hither? The letter proved sufficient grounds in court for the first Mrs. Matthews to secure a divorce early last March. By the end of the month, Ralph had married the brokenhearted girl who had borne him a child out of wedlock. For them domesticity was not as sweet as stolen love. Their romance shattered.

PARIS CAFE BARS HAITI OFFICIAL PARIS CAFE BARS HAITI OFFICIAL Americans Blamed For Insult To Diplomat and Egyptian Princess PARIS, FRANCE—American influence in drawing the color line hobo up here again last week when Stephanie Alexis, Charge d'Affaires, the Republic of Haiti at Brussels was barred from entering the ball room at a hotel, here. The Martin Diplomat in company with Princess Mansour Deau, wife of the Crown Prince of Egypt, had dined in the Coupele when they tempted to enter the ball room down stairs. The manager told them that on account of the American whites' objection they would not be permitted. Alexis made a protest to Premier Raymond Poincaré reminding him that 500,000 of France's Negro citizens are liable to similar treatment in their own counter. The Paris public is complaining that the Paris government allows their patrons to lay down the law here and have everything done as they wish.

BRITISH WATCH MARCUS GARVEY LIKE A HAWK Each Flatters the Other in Diplomatic Game, Saya Visitor to Garvey. NO U. S. RETURN Garvey Admits Bitterness for Leaders and Politics. CLEVELAND. — Garvey and the British Jamaican government are flattering and watching each other, says Inez Wallace, white correspondent, after a visit to Garvey in Jamaica. The story was carried recently in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. In part it reads as follows: "I waited five minutes and was ushered into large office where girls work on typewriters and secretary and executives hurried back after telling a secretary who approached me that I Mr. Garvey had any word to say back to the American press. I would be glad to take it. I was ushered into Mr. Garvey's office. "Let me say that no bank president in New York has a longer line of lackers than Marcus Garvey. He rose and looked at me impertinent, almost defiantly—an act I realized that perhaps, he has a great antimony for while person. But he is a gentleman. I held out my hand, he took solemnly. which. Many of the people are illiterate' he said, 'but it behooves us who are educated to look out for and their rights. They deserve world recognition and a place in the League of Nations.' Race Mixing "I asked Mr. Garvey if he believed in the races mixing and intermarrying as they do in Jamaica. No, he said. "Socially we, we mix for the sake of the race. We should meet on business and diplomatic lines as equals." "Garvey referred to the rotten politics of America as a trouble to be declared that he states desire to go back to the states except as a private citizen. Speaking of his many followers, America, Garvey declared that he be in Cleveland and 20,000 in Cincinnati. When asked will Jamaica become a white man's land or man's land after marrying, he answered promptly. Neither, it will be a black man's land—for the whites cannot live permanently in the tropics—they should stay in God intended them, in a temperate climate." Much Bitterness "Asked. 'Have you any bitterness towards the United States?' He responds. 'I have much bitterness towards certain individuals in the States.' Garvey, however, spoke highly of the British government.

PHARAOH NOT WILLING TO LET 'MY PEOPLE GO' PHARAOH NOT WILLING TO LET 'MY PEOPLE GO' Writer in American Mercury Thinks Nothing Will be Done About Race Problem. BRUTALITY IN NORTH Use of "Mister." NEW YORK CITY.—Pharaoh is not willing to "let my people go," according to G. Peyton Wertenbaker, writing on "A White Man in the South," in the July issue of the American Mercury. "We are afraid of the Negroes. We don't understand them, and we don't know what would happen if they should freely mix with us," Wertenbaker says. He continues in part: "As long as we can keep them in practical servitude we don't have to worry about the slaves it is to our economic advantage to keep them in servitude. They do the work we don't like to do and for minimum wages. "We feel about them as Egypt for the Toupons and Rome about the Toupons." "If the Negroes were removed, their loss, at least temporarily, would have great and detrimental effects upon the economy, not only employed as servants, but in the north they are the body of labor for the large factories and are in innumerable small businesses. They are the chief body of labor for the cotton plantation in the south from large farms. A large percentage of Negroes in this country have small farms and businesses of their own. There are almost no totally idle Negroes as are idle parasite white men of wealth. The Negroes have a share in the economic life of the nation which is not easy to do without suddenly." Wertenbaker talks about a white Episcopal mission travelling in the interest of Negro education and addressing teachers and Negro professional men as "Mister." At home his wife and daughters smile indigently about his reference to colored people as "Mister," and Mr. Washington," he says. BRUTALITY "The white man is brutal to the Negro in the north." says Wertenbaker, describing how, as newspaper editor, he policed up a prisoner who didn't like to be searched. The turnkey struck him across the face with the heavy ring full of blood. He hindered the desk and helped him. The captain came out of his office and kicked him until he was unconscious. The nun suppose he is dead? said the turnkey. "What difference does it make?" asked the sergeant, "we will say picked him up in a street fight anyhow." Down south we treat Negroes as children, laugh at them and take them off periodically to jail. They have no chance to defend them casely but the police caught something really bad, they are liable to be strung up, but even then there is little unnecessary cruelty. We are always prepared. Down south a white man is not banged for shooting Negro. THREE SOLUTIONS. The writer declares there are three solutions of the Negro problem. "Either he will disappear like the Indian or become a slave again, losing everything but the animal instinct to work and obey masters or eventually struggle up until he can challenge racial mastery of the whites. The Negroes can take our civilization away from us they are welcome to it. It isn't worth much anyway." Pittsburgh C.M.E. Conference Meets PITTSBURGH, Pa.-With the largest delegation in its history, the Pittsburgh and Detroit C.M.E. conference closed its session here last week at Carter's Temple C.M.E. church of which the Rev. C. A. Craig is pastor. The Rev. J. M. Wooden, presiding elder, presided with Mrs. M. Harris Craig and the Rev. C. E. Chapman serving as secretaries. Mrs. Katie Missionary society. RAPS "UNCLE TOMS." Declaring that religion must concern itself with conditions on this side as well as the other, Dr. George C. Parker, editor of the Christian Index, declared that the great need of the people is economic freedom. Said he: "Bishops, the officers and priests, are of value only as they stand for the highest, noblest and best in our economic, religious and civic life. The worst thing in the world is the lack of grinding, bowing Negro preacher, who will sell his race in his manhood for measly dollars. The time has passed for the man who is an opportunist, for the man who is afraid to speak his convictions." Church leaders freely admire Dr. Parker as the most candidate for the episcopacy in the C.M.E. church and his elevation is expected at the 11930 general conference Louisville, Ky., next week, or when ever he is invited more in the C.M.E. church. Two other addresses which created widespread comment were those by Drs. J. Moppin and J. McGraw, the Church, and "Science and Religion" by C. E. Chapman. Dr. Moppins advocated a program that will more effectively protect, hold and benefit mankind. He says the church as an institution should be opened "seven days a week, each month," but cannot expect to undo in one day what has been done in six days." The mission society raised a large sum for mission preachers. The membership of churches showed a decided increase.

Pluko HAIR DRESSING RACE DELEGATES AT CHURCH CONFERENCE BUCK HILL FALLS, PA—Leaders of Protestant Church life in America assembled here at the call of the Christian Herald in the first annual Institute of Religion and Spiritualism in discussion at the problems of unity of the Protestant church denominations. Among the delegates were Dr. and Mrs. T. H. Copeland, of Hopkinsville, Ky., of the Colored Methodist Church, George E. Haynes of New York, a secretary of the Federal Council of Churches. Mrs. Copeland described the contacts through the white and colored churches in her home own in exile in the city. She used denominations as illustration of the necessity of facing the race question on a Christian basis in any effort for unity of the denominations. She urged white churches and Christian churches to touch toward their colored brethren and sisters as one of the steps toward church unity. Dr. Haynes spoke of the effort through interdenominational action of dealing with the race problem both within the church and in the situations of the protection of human life, the seeking of justice for Negroes before the law and justice in economic conditions, and the outloud out of one of the great obstacles in getting larger results in good will and co-operation between the race was the fact that church loyalty runs through denomination, and the problem must be faced by theited church forces.

CAPTAIN BROWN PREPARING FOR JULY 4 CROWDS CAPTAIN BROWN PREPARING FOR JULY 4 CROWDS Fourth of July will be a gala day at Brown's Grove. St. John's A.M.E. Sunday school is preparing to carry one or the largest crowds in its history on the two trips; the first at 8:30 and the next at 2:30 p.m. In the evening the Natators, a well known organizer of young men, will give Saturday afternoon excursions for the past several weeks, will run another one of these popular events, with the boats leaving at 6:30 p.m. Captain Brown's stenner has carried the largest young crowds thus far of any season in his twenty-three years of excursion business. Speaking to a reporter from this paper several days ago, Captain Brown talked weirds of pride of the thousands passers back and forth to his grave since 1006, without accident or loss of life to a single passenger. The Amor company equipped a boat and brained a boiler, the latter cost more than $17,000.00, and is without a doubt, the safest and finest excursion steamer anywhere in the world. The company should have the support of every race loving person in Baltimore and vicinity because of the fact that it is not only the largest business of the company but also the only excursion steamer manned and owned entirely by the race. A. M. E. ZIONS RAISE $29,606 FOR MISSIONS Secy. Medford's Report Shows Two-Thirds of Money Goes to Foreign Fields. FIVE FIELDS Work in Gold Coast, Liberia, Virgin Islands, and S. A. A total of $28,696.90 was raised for foreign missionaries to the report of Rev. H. T. Medford, executive secretary of the Department of Foreign Missions of the A. M. E. Zion Church. The report, which covers his term of office from June 1, 1928 to May 21, 1929 also shows that $7,622.67 of that amount was raised by local Women's Committees throughout the denomination territory. This represents about one-half of the money received by this society, the other half having been sponsored or missionary work in local fields. Two-thirds To Fields The Rev. Mr. Medford's report also shows that two-thirds of every dollar of the money collected went to the military. This is said to compare exceptionally well with shows generally made by foreign missionary organizations. On this money, $444.64 came from the United States, $481.75 came through bequeaths and the negotiations of loans. Appropriations of this fund include $7,707.71 for transportation and salary of missionaries on the ground, $1,000.00 for mobilization and expansion work, $484.00 for liquidation of notes and $1,084.47 for supplies. 13 Unlucky for this Couple Millard Quarles is seeking divorce from his wife, Myrtle Quarles, whom he charges with desertion in his bill filed in the Circuit Court of Baltimore, work, through his attorney, S.B.

Wherever ran thus: the story tan An African worker, hurting in a forest where no human being ever set foot before, met a party of apes and fired at a particularly fine specimen. The animal attacked the ground. Stooping to examine it, he was surprised to find the body, not of an ape but of an African woman, without ornaments, or tattoo marks. It was presumed that she had been carried off in her youth by the apes and had become one of them. From this it looks as if it were not a great step from an African to an ape, and apes had been able to deviate an African native woman Hardly had this story been a nine days' wonder, until the following dispatch was called from Cape Town, South Africa, to the London daily press. It was printed last week in the African World: A German overseer was hunting in the Cameroons, and seeing a company of apes, shot one. To his horror he saw an unclothed, half-human girl, with blonde hair, tumble out of the branches and fall to the ground, while the apes, scared by the shot, ran away. The strange creature, who had been shot just above the heart, died a few minutes later. Note how the story has changed from a native to a German hunter and from a native girl to a white girl with blonde hair. The African World calls attention to the real facts which lie at the base of both reports: Two or three months ago a native hunter reported to the officer in charge of a district of the British mandated territory of Cameroon that he had accidentally killed a native wildehunting in the forest. On enquiry the District officer was satisfied that this was one of the accidents where occasionally occur in the forest where the undergrowth is thick and the light bad. The involuntary homicide was acquitted of blame and the story was probably forgotten. But it has reappeared in two entirely different legends in Germany, England, and half around the world. Thus a true story is changed into a lie, and a true story, which we may expect to assume a dozen different forms and even get into the books on history and ethnology. Don't Blame Brazil Don't Blame Brazil Brazil, which, despite its large Negro population, has drawn the line against Negroes from the United States is not to be blamed for its protest to Henry Ford against importing black Americans to work his newly established rubber plantation at Manos, Brazil. White Americans have taken their race prejudice around the world. In France, a military diplomat is refused admission to a cabaret because his color might have received Americans. In Hawaii, mulattos are welcomed, but Negroes are not acceptable to the natives. One Brazilian newspaper says: The American Negro has not the mentality and moral characteristics of the Brazilian Negro. There is no reason why we should open our frontiers without reserve to the worst black unassimilable element of North America. It is beautiful, but a dangerous to accept a dangerous, persecuted, unhappy people. To Negroes of real value the gate is open, but they are unwilling to leave the States. Coming from a country nearly one-third Negro, where there is no color line, and where black men are eligible for any public office, this might sound strange. Yet if Brazil relied upon us for her conception of the average white man in the United States, it wouldn't get lies in the different picture. Brazil's only error lies in the guillibility with which it swallowed the story of the Negro as told in the white press. If that story were faithful, accurate and fair, every one of the 346 Negro newspapers in the United States would be forced out of business. Get 'Em Ready Get 'Em Ready Charles E. Weir, of Washington, now a student at the 'University of Chicago, failed in his physical examination for Annapolis because of defective vision. Examining officials, in order to avoid criticism, he was given a second examination and recheck before they certified that his eyesight was too poor to qualify him. Weir was the only survival of two principals and five alternates nominated by Congressman Oscar DePriest for the Naval Academy. One was too old, two failed to report for the April 17, 1929, regular mental examinations, and three these mental tests were marked on a scale ranging from 4 to 0. In order to pass, it was necessary to make a grade of 2.5 in each subject. The three men who flunked made averages of 1.7, 1.3 and 1.2, that is, about 50 percent. No recheck on the work of the examiners who marked these papers seems possible, which means that candidates must be able to make such high grades in these tests that they cannot be disqualified on technicalities. Down in Leavenworth, Kansas, is Mr. Blanche C. Weir, who has coached 180 men to pass army and naval academy tests. On every ship and in every regiment are officers coached by Mr. Bruce.

Morgan's Future This editorial has been purposefully delayed until the end of the Morgan College campaign, so as not to embarrass it in any way. The General Education Board several years ago agreed to give the college $5000 if it would match the sum and pay out $200,000 debt. This has been done without struggle which has taxed the President J. O. Spencer and Dr. Charles Baldwin, chairman of the board of trustees. And yet there is no need for these continued penny collections for Morgan College, the only college in Maryland available for our boys and girls. Assistance from the taxpayers of the city and the state are within reach if the Morgan trustees are intelligent and far-seeing enough. Assistance from the taxpayers of the city and the state are within reach if the Morgan trustees are intelligent and far-seeing enough to grasp it. Baltimore city supports a normal school. It would be willing to turn its teacher training over to Morgan under some such arrangements as those governing the disbursement of the white-collar and the transfer of its work to the State Normal School at Towson. Nor is it far-fetched to conceive of the transfer of the work of the Bowie State Normal School for Colored Teachers to Morgan. Baltimore city supports a normal school.

Nor is it far-fetched to conceive of the transfer of the work of the Bowie State Normal School for Colored Teachers to Morgan. Maryland gives a million dollars a year to higher education in the state. Half of that goes to University of Maryland, and the remainder to schools like Hopkins, Western Maryland College, etc. Negroes are banned—illegally of course—from these schools. Proper legal steps, fostered by Morgan or its alumni, mandate the state to admit Negroes to the University of Maryland or provide for their higher collegiate, medical, and law training in some other place. Morgan has the campus; the state would be willing to help it become a great Negro university, rather than be a slave to the doors of Maryland to us. There is only one other requirement—Morgan must cast off its church affiliations and become a non-sectarian school. Its trustee board is at present independent and self-perpetuating. But the Washington annual conference passed a resolution at its last session requiring assurance from the trustees that no separation from the church be authorized without repayment of all that the church has put into it. The community is grateful to the Methodist Episcopal church for its establishment and support of Morgan College. We believe, however, that the college can perform a greater service if it will make itself available for city and state aid, by severing its church connections. Today it has a choice which it may not have a decade hence. The church and the trustees must decide, and soon, what its future is to be.

Finding Things Out The first thought about the result of the Hoover tea party is that Mrs. Hoover's courtesy to Mrs. Depriest has driven the Southern Hoovercrats back where they belong—in the Democratic party. Mr. Hoover did a dummy and ignorance: the first Republican to carry Virginia, Texas, and Florida in sixty years, he loses all he gained in the last election by giving a swift kick to the crackers' idea of social equality. The AFRO'S view is that the break had to come anyway, and the DePriest tea party might as well be the final straw as anything else. There can be no permanent alliance between the "all-men-up" Republican party of Lincoln and Roosevelt and the "some-men-down" Democratic party as it exists in Duke. Sooner or later Mr. Hoover would have tired of compromising himself—selling his soul for another sure-fire term in the White House. The South cannot be civilized by affiliation with the Republican party. It must repent of its wickedness and inhumanity and must pay the price for its centuries of human debasement. No one, not even Mr. Hoover, is evangelist enough to effect the reform, and the sooner the White House and the lily-wild Republicans find it out, the better for themselves and the nation.

Speak Up, Gents Senator Cole Blease (Democrat, South Carolina), infamous for his incendite "Niggers in the White House" poem and his insult to the Hoovers who entertained the wife of the Illinois Congressman at tea, has made anti-Negro speeches before in the Senate. In March, 1928, he went out of his way to condemn the Nation dinners for Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard in Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, Chicago and Washington, where both races sat down as table together. Interviewed after this speech, Blease said he considered himself the Negro's best friend, although he advocated common schools only and Jim-crow cars in Washington for the colored people. He referred to the Reverend R. W. Mance, A.M.E. minister and candidate for the bishopic and Mr. R. S. Wilkinson, president of South Carolina State College, as colored leaders in his home state who supported his views on the race question.

The southern spy, Belle Boyd, although dead many years, is now to be honored by the daughters of the rebel cause. Honor for what? For her part in trying to keep black men and women in perpetual slavery and degradation. Recently a group of women in southern Europe converse and announced to the world: "That we bow our heads in shame, and regret and express in the strongest and most empathic terms at our command, our condemnation and humiliation at said conduct, if true, on the part of the mistress of the White House and her husbands. The reason for this outburst is because a lady of our group was invited to the White House as the guest of Mrs. Hoover. After reading these things I have come to the conclusion, interracial meetings are a colossal joke. They don't amount to a tinker's damn. EDWARD RYAN.

An Open Letter to the President on the Appointment of a Colored Man on the Farm Board. I am taking the liberty of addressing you with reference to the appointment of a colored representatives on the Farm Board recently authorized by an act cf Congress. It is generally believed that the proper functioning of the board will have farreaching influence upon the agricultural and economic costing of America. The issue between the agricultural and industrial elements have reached the state of acute irritation whose efficient treatment calls impelatively for wise constructive statesmanship. The country congratulates you upon your courage and firmness in handling this issue which confirms our belief in the master admin- and executive. The Negro's destiny in this country, as was his beginning, is rooted and grounded in the soil. This is the one basic industry in which he is an essential factor. The farm offers him by far the best industrial rivalry, in which the weaker factor will inevitably be forced to the wall. The color bar is a bar sinister to the Negro as concerns city industries based upon the uncontrollable law of race prejudice will permit him neither to compete nor to combine with the dominant white labor forces. But in agriculture he is largely sheltered from this inexorable law of Aryan competence. The Negro should .therefore, be encouraged to seek for his salvation, as a mass, in the unopposed sphere of producing food and tiber to nourish and clothe the earth at disadvantage in all spheres of activity in which he may be engaged, but on the farm this relative disadvantage is reduced to a minimum. Mother earth responds with equal reason to the challenge of the tiller. The mates are color blind as to the complexion of the producer. The Negro should take over the farm as often as the white man abandons it. Very unpleasant, it imminently distracting the white man in this mid city wardron. They are alike attracted by the glare of city allurements; but the black arriver finds himself the more hesitant dehonised by the enchant- Mechanical Industries. The World War prolonged, for a while, the deluded hope of the Negro business. A vacuum was created in the labor market and the Negro rushed in to fill the temporary emigration of the white population, immigration will serve to suspend his dawn a little longer. But as conditions settle down to their normal state, the Negro will be adequate to the demand, the black competitor will be pushed further and further down on the scale of desirable and remunerative employment. There is an essential difference in the raise of the wage in the city where this blind cityward movement, Manufacture, trade and transportation control of the white labor of white labor. The Negro. so far, has shown little developed aptitude for business and has not been the merger and the syndicate business which frustrates the successful operation of all small concerns, adds to the small hope to develop dependent, enterprise Decline. The saddest chapter in the history of Negro progress is discussed by the leadership of farm ownership and operation. The seeming increase in city holdings is a poor offset to the decline in farm ownership and possession consists all but wholly in home ownership which is a dead asset without productive value. The most productive capital or a working tool whereby the owner is enabled to make a living for himself and, as a result, to exploit proprietor and directs his own activities, wherecs the urban Negro is merely a hired hand, confined mainly to manual and menial forms If the Negro is to become habituated to self-proprietorship and the system and method of conducting the business, he will need to acquire the knowledge and the skills by the orderly conduct of farming activities which are more and more requiring like skill enterprise and initiative than through an apparent opportunity which an ill-shadowing city environment affords. Greatest Usefulness. I gather from various angles that your administration purposes to lay comparatively 'little stress on the political problem' in the view, but rather hopes to serve the Negro comprehensively by encouraging improvement in his industrial, economic and moral Here, it seems, you have a strategic The selection of a competent colored man to serve on the Farm Board would go further. He would be in the direction of its greatest usefulness to itself and to the nation than the appointment of a dozen candidates as register of something, recorder of something, assistant to somebody or minister to Crime Commission. I greatly hoped that you might have seen your way clear to select a colored man for a place, the Commissioner, of such a choice upon the group which is at once the greatest victim of lawlessness and the chief beneficiary of law enforcement. The great benefit of applying the beneficial purpose and intent of good government by entrusting him with some responsible relation to the machinery of government. The white man is the most important schoolmaster to the Negro if it insists on laying down rigid regulations and beating the black man into obedience, without appealing to his conscience and intelligence. The same principle applies to the Hampton and Tuskegee have been trying for a generation to incubate upon the understanding of the Negro that his best chance and the only way to city allurements, has for the past two decades, greatly weakened the strength of their appeal. The government can do much to direct the wise way in which it should be In this connection I beg to suggest for consideration, Dr. R. R. Moten, a race philosophy is based upon the agriculture motive, and Mr. E. P. Boose, of Mound Bayou, Mississippi, a business experiment, whose outcome is fraught with vital significance to the Negro and to the nation. The Press, on Hoover- DePriest Tea Party Weekly Press Supports Mrs. Hoover; Southern White Press Stands Alone Against North and West. The entertainment by Mrs. Hoover of Mrs. Oscar Dreist, wife of the Negro Negressman from Chicago, at a tea given on June 16 for some of the Illinois delegation in Congress, has aroused considerable interest in various parts of the country. The AFRO herewith prints some of the newspaper editorial comment the episode has aroused. Shootin' In one of George Cohan's bright plays there is a character whose conversation consists chiefly of the question: "What's all the shootin' for?" Perchance the President and his wife, in 'the privacy of their home—such as it is—may ask each other the question and smile. The Boston Post (white) The Real Purpose This protest exposes the real purpose of the South for our race. It makes clear the real meaning of the color persecution and segregation. Theirintent 1: to put all of us outside the pale of civilized society, to make us officially outcasts. DoPriest's White Blood On the question of race purity, one has only to remind the South that Mrs. Depriest has a high percentage of white blood in her veins and her husband has a higher percentage than the wife. Everyone knows that this percentage of white blood flow is the veins of Mr. and Mrs. and the violation of Negro womanhood by avaricious southern white men who should have remembered in the heat of the day that Negroes that Mother Nature does not know how to discriminate in the production of offspring, even if the father inappropriately the mother appears to be, black. A Crude Country This re-action to Mrs. Hoover's gentle courtesy is a nasty mess which reveals the state of our boasted democracy. Boston Chronicle Political, not Racial The loud howis heard in Florida and elsewhere, protesting because Mrs. Hoover entertained the Negro wife of a Negro Representative, good old-fashioned Florida went Repentance in 1928; so did Virgil North Carolina and Texas, and the long-staple Democrats in those recalcitrant states are eager to find any stick with which the "Hoovercrats" have active contact if they can find an excuse for shouting that Hoovercrats are old-fashioned carpetbag "black Republicans," promoting the cause of social equality between the races, they will be only too happy but their interest is political rather than ra Human Decerency Mrs. Hoover is to be congratulated for the human decency of her act and for the dignified silence she has maintained since. South True To Form There is nothing unusual about the South's attitude. It is customary for the South to have fits when the rights of Negro citizens are granted to them. In fact, the South not hysterical over the proprie Mrs. Dewey, the White House would cause for alarm. The South is drunk with racial prejudice Such outbursts are to be expected. Mrs. Hoover understands the South's attitude thoroughly. She untouched will continue to "first Lady" of the land without too much thought of what the South thinks about it. In fact, the South does very little thinking. The few thoughts which have come out of the South have been anti-Negro. Phila.

Mrs. DePriest simply went, because an invitation from the first lady of the land is equivalent to a summons, the land is equivalent to a summons, and even commented upon by those who seek to keep the race issue to the fore as a brazen attempt on the part of the Negro to snub the wife of the greatest republic on earth. A Dirty Rag This nation must soon learn that if the Constitution is not a "scrap of paper," it must treat every citizen alike. Belease and his cohorts would make the Constitution a "scrap of paper" and "the flag a dirty rag," if his prejudice-warped conscience was left as the guide to public Solid South This noise over so insignificant an official recognition by the South proves how far we are from permanently breaking the solid South. Not Elated We see nothing in the incident to cause us any particular elation, neither do we see any cause for editors in southern dailies tending to stir racial feeling between the two groups. Birmingham, Ala., Truth Quit Seeing Black Such occasions, while social, are not personal but official. The color scheme does not enter into the arrangement, and cannot. There no more justification for the color scheme on black and his wife on black function than there is to e x c l u d e a red, yellow, brown or white one. The President and his wife do not select any of them; the constituency does. It is about time (or even quite seeling) and having these bistant outbreaks about it. Bishop W. N. Ainsworth, M.E. Church, South South Insulted The South will not tolerate a violation of its social distinction between the races. Not even the President of the United States may duly traditional customs and maintain the respect of southern people. However has given the South its pallor or condition. It was radical and premedicated and a gross insult to every southern white person. Commonplace Monarchs, rulers, men with power and prestige have, in all ages, been known to some as the lowest, thereby raising them: the social equals of every guest present, and raising them as equals through their exercise of such power. Neither New Nor Novel This matter of whites and blacks eating and drinking together is neither new nor novel, and as long as the two races live side by side in this country they are going to be found quite often in the other's company; and this is just as true in high circles as it is in low circles. Inferior Fifty Fifty It is no more honor for a colored man to eat with a white man than it is for a white man to eat with a Negro. The honors break even. A la Will Rogers O course, as Mr. Will Rogers put it: "Whom I entertain is my business; who Mrs. Hoover entertains is Mrs. Hoover's business." Jacksonville, Fla.. Sentinel Social Equality After Dark Tom Knight, Oklahoma legislator, in discussing the proposed resolution in concentration of Mrs. Hoover that "the state can't change his spots or the Ethiopian his skin." That's the only part of the Bible that sounds like a lie.

He said he was where Nordic suppression prate about race purity in daylight hours while in the shadows and the glooming they lay in the dark, crystals with dark-skinned clamors. The Black Dispatch, Oklah. City Guffaw The Southerner who voted for Al freed himself from prejudices in order to do so, therefore if he sees neighbors who voted for him, Howe: has entertained a Negress in the White House, he sees people who permitted their prejudices to control them last November who snipped through another prejudice by presenting their petard. Well, it has been seven long months since Al's friends in the South had a chance to indulge in a great roaring guffaw. If they improve their present opposition to the limit, who is to blame them? Balto. Evening Sun (white) Stay Away, Herb. Several weeks ago it was announced that President and Mrs. Hoover intended to visit several Southern States during the autumn and early winter. For their own sakes, and to save Southern people from embarrassment, it is sincerely hoped they will do so. 39 Others White House etiquette requires the President's wife to give official entertainment to the wives of Congressmen. It is a White House custom sidestepping the greater ruckus than its performance, and while the public may criticise, those entitled to get a part of it are the thirty-nine white women who shared honors in the function. If criticism is to be handled, the law requires land, her guests should be the legitimate sharers in it. Charlotte, N.C., Observer (white) Official Courtesy Why the reported reverberations over Mrs. Herbert Hoover entertaining the wife of Oscar Depriest, Negro member of Congress from Chicago? The case is, in so far as the reported facts go, merely one of extending official courtesy. Attempts to the wife of the President maintaining the wife of the Hayton Minister. Louisville, Ky. Times (white) No Other Reason President Hoover went into the White House on the flood tide of votes from all but four of these Southern States. If for no other reason than this, the courtesy to the wife of DePriest might have been left off.

Austin, Texas, Daily Stateman, (white) 4th Day by Day WBL N Jones When Bishop A. J. Carey, descended from his exalted atmosphere of cloistered church seclusion and partisan civil service boards, the world's most noted "zang" city, writer called attention to a danger that such acts, however honestly motivated, would help to tear thousands of young hearts faith in present-day religious leadership. And now comes a white bishop, the Right Reverend and Honorable James Wall, Jr., turning up a Wall Cannon vestibule and perhaps stock gambler. How any man with the most common knowledge of economic laws and the most elemental ethical money can easily earn easy money" with religion, a but the Right Honorable bush calls it his own private business. Using keen wits and special privilege to stick his hands down into the water and wade and wade and wade, who grind out their lives in factories whose stock is milked to death in Wall Street, is a man's own prerogative. He says he some "stick-up artist" claim that a gun in a man's face and relieving him of his cash is his own private business; so also is the gang operations of Capone and the grafting of crooked politicians. You can have a little respect for the Capone and some of the other men and women who take their chancies and call a spade a spade; but the hyperpity which allows the sacred Crucifix to be held down into the flesh pots makes one sick at the stomach. Farming, Our Last Economic Trench. Kelly Miller applies President Obama's call to cedar man on the Farm Board Board. From an economic standpoint, farming is the l. real economic trench in productive industry for the country. We can leave open where we may yet establish ourselves along with the leading financial forces of the earth, and construct a base upon which to develop a real wealth-producing system. Such systems have been slow to reach the difference between merely wage sources of wealth and productive industry. A certain percentage of the group should, of course, take advantage of the water source of the country. We can make the great manufacturing plants, of the court. But study the unemployment figures in any big industrial city today and one will see some idea of what have in place, have in practice, the country should pass through the same economic crisis which Europe, and England in particular, has passed during the last five years. SUCH A ORIGIN THERE WOULD BE MORE FOR ONE COLORED MAN OUT OF EVERY FIFTY WHEN BLOOD BEGAN TO BECOME THICKER THAN TERER AND ALLEVELS COMMENDED TO SQUEEZE OUT THE SURPLUS HELP. Naturally, such a catastrophe would wreck the week foundation of our present economic life. The business, and professional almost wholly on the wage earner class for their patronage—would go down in the crash: SUCH EVENTUALITY EVEN IN PROSPERABLE, IS NOT SUSPICIBLE. Better Foundation for the Future. This writer has pointed our time after time that the traders of the group, especially business leaders, should help lay a better foundation than we have for the future society. Our economists—and here is a suggestion for the Fart Find Conference—should call attention to amount of farm land which would produce to entirely support the 112,000,000 members of the group were they to be off from every other source of income, and they are about the business of guiding the race towards the acquisition of this land. Down in South Carolina, between Spartanburg and the little railway station they had Booneau, is the representation of a family which has year in and year out made living out of a 70 acre farm. By twenty years ago their land at $2.30 per acre. Although they are it yield for them not only the necessities of life but a surplus sufficient to produce seven professional men and women in the best schools of the land, it is today The tremors of financial earthquakes, money panics such as the country灾后 due to the failure of foreign markets, never once seriously threatened the peace and business of that country, but they could still sell their eggs at 25 cents per dozen and their butter at 25 cents per pound. AND MAKE MONEY. We own and such families owning 75 acres each of land would lay the kind of foundation we need for Negro independence. of Farm Relief. Not only are we not acquiring more farm land but figures show that we are abandoning farms for the big cities. With our present set-up, we will get little direct benefits which $500,000,000 of the farm will use to help the farming class. We have no widely organized so-called third money will be held there in so far as the whole scheme will tend to raise wages—and this must be expected for years—will help the masses of colored folk now Here is certainly a field callin for the very best leadership out our colleges can supply. THE MAKING ECONOMICALLY IN- DEPENDENT OF 112,000,000 million people. Ride on REBUILT HOOD TIRES The Nation's Biggest All Negro Weekly. LIVING TOO HIGH FOR ECONOMIC STATUS,HANCOCK Face Crisis Unless Conditions are Relieved, He Tells Coppin Grads. THREE LIVING LEVELS Forced Out. "Unless the economic condition of the race is relieved within the next 25 years, the Negro faces great tribulation," declared Dr. Gordon Blaine Hancock, Virginia Union university professor, in addressing the 16th annual commencement of Coppin Normal school Monday evening. The standard of living that the Negro has set for himself is too high for his economic status, affirmed the speaker, adding that the Hecht Company of Washington is said to have sold $80,000 worth of furs for a Howard-Lincoln football game. Servants to work so well stressed that the employees fire them for someone apparently more need of a job, often the LLIVFE osShETNIOAONIse, who will live on a cheaper table. Three Levels Speaking of the three economic levels, Dr. Hancock said that the high-salaried class; he is unprepared for the second or level of the skilled worker, and is being forced out of the lowest level by the competition of poor whites who are willing to replace him. The man has reached the place where he looks the world over, decide what he shall do with it; he reached it through suffering in past ages. The Jew is the most remarkable man in the world, his contribution to civilization is but a proportion to his numbers, but he has been done through suffering, that who would reign and rule must Dr. Hancock urged the young graduates to meet this economic crisis by taking the fact with sacrifice and determination. Our forefathers, he said, faced a problem directly after they became free—a problem of no nurseries no schools and no economic status—they faced it and to large degree solved it with work and sacrifice. Will the New Negro meet this economic crisis just as successfully? Mayor Broening Diplomas were conferred by Mayor William F. Brenning, who was introduced by Dr. David E. Weglein, subinterendent of schools. Mayor Brenning told the audience that less than ten years ago the City of Baltimore was spending less than $4,000,000 on its schools, but now it is spending this year $10,000,000 plus loans agreeing $32,000,000. The Rev. W. D. Yerby delivered the invocation and the benediction, music was furnished by the orchestra under the direction of W. Llewland of chorus under the direction of Miss Francis Jackman, Mrs. Ruth Lee McAbee, accompanist. Principal Miles W. Conor presided. Class Dag Exercise The teacher graduates held their class day exercise Friday afternoon in the school auditorium, at which time they presented a playlet entitled "Les Adieux des Fleurs." Those taking part were Lillian Smith, Ellen Scott, salutatorian; Kathleen Bass, historian; L. Pratt and A. Harris, historians; Naomi Young and Eliza Sherrill, prophets; Nerissa Tailferto, class will; Myrle Billups, valedictorian. The class poem was composed by Miriam Gwynn and the poem by Corbeda White and Naomi Cotter. Other members of the class took parts of leaves and flowers. Baccalaureate Sermon The sermon to the graduates was delivered at the Sharon Baptist Church Sunday morning by the pastor, the Red Beale Elliot, who called the attention of the class to the "imperious amount of sacrifice on the part of parents and the race in the cause of education." Put on a full set of rebuilt HOOD TIRES for that vacation trip. They will safely meet every motoring condition, assuring safety at any speed. Their low cost will mean a real saving and because of their remarkable quality you will never pause for any cause. White Grads Insult Race Class Members GLASSBORO, N.J.—Race prejudice marred the annual reception of the Glassboro State Normal School here when white students walked out of the auditorium in protest against the presence of two race members of the class, Fricay evening. The action drew the attention of Hazel Godfrey, Woodbury, N.J., and Walter Gordon, Royal, N.J., to participate in the regular school functions after their fee had been accepted by the school authorities. Dr. J. J. Savitz, principal of the school was absent from the affair it was said after having tried to persuade the colored students from attending. The students and her escort together with Gordon and a guest entered the auditorium and participated in two dances the white members of the class deserted the hall and went out on the campus. A number of older colored students, members of the February class did not attend. DOUGLASS GRADS GET DIPLOMAS DOUGLASS GRADS GET DIPLOMAS With Mayor Broening, Superintendent David E. Weglen and Director Francis M. Wood present, the 174 graduates of Douglass High School were handed diplomas, Wednesday evening. In his address, Mayor Broening, in outlining the program under which Baltimore is developing, declared that of the $26,000,000 appropriated for general use in the city, $7,000,000 were recommended for hospitals, $1,000,000 for repairing old schools and $250,000 for extension of the water system. The Mayor personally schools with and congratulated her graduate. Dr. Weglein, who introduced the Mayor, made an appeal for co-operation on the parts of the parents and citizens in developing what is beginning to be one of the best school systems in the country. Principal Mason Hawkins urged those students not planning to enter college or training school to enter some industry or business career. The principal also declared that parents were partly responsible for failure of students to graduate, and that it was their duty to scan report cards each month. The school he said sends home a monthly report of the extra activities of the school, which he offers after school hours, when the faculty has no disruption of students. The invention was given by Rev. Samuel H. James and music by the school orchestra and chorus under the direction of W. Llewellyn Wilson, with Miss Milred Williams, accompanying. Headwaiter in Dope Raid ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (A.N.P.)

Mr. Foster, a former Chicagoan, through a dogged persistence, has landed the berth which he dreamed of many. He has had a long and interesting career, which began him back beyond the days when he was with Peter; Jackson in England and later when he and "Jay Gould" were doing first nights in the show houses on Broadway. He came to Chicago, knew the Pekin players and began the production of colored motion pictures when enthusiasm for the Pekin players was at its height. In those days he was one of the closest friends of Flournoy. His now carries a diamond-studded watch, a gift from the kindly Flournoy. "Bill," as he is known by most of his friends, got out of pictures and into the newspaper game, so-called. For some years he wrote sports for a Chicago paper. He left and started a daily paper of his own, with Count Gary of New York. Gary's health condition did not stop but Bostetter did not stop trying. He wanted to make pictures He had written stories and he wanted to see them on the screen. Had Hard Time He himself tells of his efforts to get on the movie lots. Time and time again he went with his story. Most of the times he could not get in At other times he got in only to be seet out. Sometimes he was held with, at least, a vindicated It was not until he ran into a Mr. Powell, vice-president of Pathe, through the influence of the doorman at Pathe's, that he struck a chord of interest. Powell was willing to talk to Foster. He came from Virginia and he had a way of understanding that Foster might have an idea. Foster's stories were read and then with lawyers he held with lawyers and finally Powell was sent for—to go to work. He could scarcely believe it himself. Nor could the Negroes whom he was to direct. When he gave them orders, they looked at the white men to see if they should do what the Negro director was telling them to do. Powell stuck behind Foster, in spite of criticism from whites and whites, and now Foster is well in the game. He stuck, and he won.

WASHINGTON, (A.N. P.)—When King Saul of Biblical fame stabbed himself a few centuries ago, he did not do it any more gracefully and realistically than did Edward Sewell in depicting the role on the stage here Thursday night. The original King Saul might have missed the effective, but Sewell certainly added realism to the suicide scene, and when he drew the sword from the wound it was dropping with real blood. Sewell who is an actor of no mean ability had misjudged the space between in his arm and side, through which the sword was supposed to pass and instead ran through the room. He fell to the floor, just as he should and groaned: "So died mighty King Saul." It was a real groan and Sewell testified to this fact when he arrived at the hospital where he was rushed for treatment.

"Hot Chocolate" Show is Tempting Theatrical Fare The Nation's Biggest All Negro Weekly. CRITICS PRAISE LATEST SHOW TO SEEK BROADWAY "Jazzlips" Richardson and Baby Cox Stop Show With their Specialties. DANCING IS TORRID "Ain't Misbehavin" Is Song Hit; Risque Lines Cut Out. NEW YORK. (Special) —From the smacking of the lips in the metropolitan sector, "Hot Chocolate," the expanded Connie's Inn revue, which opened last Thursday night at the Hudson theatre, is a rather toothsome and palatable offering. Geraldyne Dismond, after seeing the show, says: "Hot Chocolate, regardless of the fact that the comedy, outside of a Big Business bit featuring Jazzill Richardson, Eddie Green and Billy Higgins, is nothing to speak of; that there are spots that would make even a fapper blush; and that you see distinctly a blackbirdishness, exhilarates you like nothing at all. The dancing does it. And the Bon Bon Buddies lead the way. If there is fast, peppier or more thrilling dancing going on anywhere, you couldn't make me believe it. Of course, the girl-chorus can step, too, but it is so good to look at that it would be all right if it couldn't dance. Jazzlips Scores "In front of this marvelous background is Jazzi Richmond, a grade A artist who stops the show cold; the Three Midnight Steppers (what a trio!); Paul Meercs, who, thank goodness, in one spot is relieved of twirling his wife around; Louise Cooke, whose dance is a 'knockout'; and the darling of the show. Baby Cox, who not only dances, but sings and tosses across the footlights a personality that makes her a wow. "The 'lovie dove' work is done by Margaret Simms and Paul Bass, so handsome, so sweet singing. 'Ain't Mishehavin', surely the song hit, is put over by them with the able assistance of Russell Wooding's Sextet, a favorite up and down town. Colorful Scenes "As for pictures, nothing more could be expected than the Goddess of Rain and Indian scenes. Jimmy Baskette, who has a physique and voice that makes delightful shivers go up and down your spine, sings the theme song of each Low-Cook, as the goddess Rain gets away in the first scene and the Woman invites the center of the stage in the second. Spicy Risque Bits Spy Raisa Rescue "It fails to the lot of clever Edith Wilson to carry the burden of the rique entree. It is spicy in the best Andy Razaf mannee and those who like it, will: and those who don't, won't; but a for Miss Wilson, she does a song of perfection. Pool Room a song that led your imagination in the wrong channels and brought down the wrath of Broadway was removed after the first night. So was a bed used by Miss Wilson in her feature "Black and Blue." "No, I didn't like it all. I thought about a lot of other things, especially the heat, while sitting it out, but I shall see it again and again, if for no other reason than because the finale of the first half is the best thriller I have found on YouTube and in orchestra are it the pit, and Louis Armstrong does a specialty just before the opening of the second half." Louis Sobel, white, dramatic editor of the Evening Graphic, says: "Sepia maids, who used every muscle of their bodies as well as their hands, ears and heads in wild furries of maddening dance routines; colorado maduro lads who squirmed and twist-steped until you expected a dozen joints to crack any minute; wide-mouthed, gold-toothed comedians who chirped no sound, your knees your waist, your knees and laugh right out loud every time they uttered a sound—these are particularly fresh in mind at this moment. "Jazzilis Richardson' is a chap that beats them all. I don't know who he is—I never saw him before—but I don't believe yet that he did everything I saw him do with that one pair of rather large feet. It just seemed possible. "Concerns he likes it or not, has a hit on his hands. Hot Chocolates should be here to greet the new arrivals in the fall. And in the winter, too, for that matter." IKE DIXON, wishes to explain the non-appearance of Horace Henderson's Band on 10th and 11th, at Wonderland Park, Baltimore, and Ike Dixon to play five engagements, three in Baltimore: two at Wonderland Park, and one at Tobin's Ballroom (white) to also play in Sugar Saddles, Washington, and at the Paley-Orient in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Ike Dixon received a telegram from Horace Henderson (white) to meet me with a terrible automobile accident and not be able to get here until Tuesday after. Ike Henderson failed to show up in Baltimore, and the people come to see him and not have any music. Ike Dixon secured a band to so that the dance parties would be able to show up until Horace Henderson's band did show up. After the band did not show up at all, Ike sent three telegrams, not getting any reply. Horace Henderson would be unable to make the engagements. Ike Dixon has promoted attractions in Baltimore for the past five years and never have come disappointed the public. Bands have come after that they but always have come as advertised. Dillon never has faked advertised a need, wants the public to feel he is not trying to trick him on playing over them now, as he must depend on the public to support his attractions and dances, he could not hope to fake advertise. He Dillon has telegrams to prove he worked Helen Henderson's Band as stated above, and also to prove the statement of the accident. Using the public will have confidence in his future attractions.

WITH EDMUND LOWE WARNER BAXTER DOROTHY BURGESS IN OLD ARIZONA RAOUL WALSH-IRVING CUMMINGS PRODUCTION Story and dialog by TOM BARRY STORY OF SOUTHWEST LEADS REGENT BILL STORY OF SOUTHWEST LEADS REGENT BILL The long-awaited epic of the colorful old southwest, "In Old Arizona," has been booked to play the first half of the week at the Regent Theatre. It is a story of the romantic southwest. Its central figures are a notorious bandit and killer who had eluded all attempts to capture him, a fiery girl whom he loved and a United States calvary sergeant who was assigned to capture the bandit and who fell in love with the girl. The sergeant persuaded her to betray the bandit. That is the germ of the plot, but it does not begin to describe the fascinations of hearing the trio.-Warner Baxter, Dorothy Burgess and Edmund Lowe- The Afro American, Baltimore, Saturday, June 29, 1929 ```markdown ``` speak their lines; of the accompanying sounds and the novelty of having a score of famous film players in the supporting cast. Fetchit in Film Stepin Fetchit, the race movie star, who was seen to such good advantage in "Hears in Dixie," has a prominent part in "The Ghost Talks," which will play, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Charles Eaton and Helen Twelvetrees have the leading roles in this farce comedy. It is the story of the activities of a correspondence school detective. Melancholy winds; weird, sepulcral voices; mysterious footsteps; the dog and hysterical screams of two New Yorkers are sounds which help to establish a 'creepy' atmosphere in the haunted house sequence of "The Ghost Talks." Fetchit and Baby Mack, the bridegroom and bride, hold the spotlight in the particularly comic action having to do with the ghost. Sheldon B. Hoskins at Demonstration Sheldon B. Hoskins, Baltimore representative, was present at the demonstration conducted by the Dennison Company for three weeks at a local development store. Mr. Hoskins, whose work was highly commended, will give a summer course in the work, including flower making, wax craft and costume designing.

COUNTY SPENT $10410 ON HIGH PUPILS COUNTY SPENT $10410 ON HIGH PUPILS Plan of Sending them to City Schools to be Continued as in the Past. CO. OPPOSES SCHOOL Commissioners Unwilling to Erect Colored Hi Building. The Baltimore County Board of Education has refused request of the County Parent-Teacher Association for a colored high school. Petition to this effect carried before the board at its last session by a delegation cited that "the principle of equality of educational opportunity would seem to require high schools as well as elementary school facilities within easy reach of all children without cost of tuition or transportation." It operates high schools for white pupils at Catonsville, Towson Sparrows Point, Sparks, Franklin, Rannallstown, Fullerton, Dundalk, Parkville and Essex. There are no Baltimore county high schools for colored pupils. After the seventh grade, pupils are given a stiff examination and if they survive, their tuition paid for four years in Baltimore City high schools. The county does not pay the transportation of these colored pupils, although it spends $13,856 a year supporting white children from home to school and back again. The four years tuition paid by the board carries the child only once the third year. If it would graduate, the parents must pay the child's tuition for the last year in addition to the car fare. For parents living in Sparrows Point, the means six street car fares are for a single child. Hershner Talks Assistant Superintendent Hershner told the AFRO this week that the county board paid the tuition of 77 colored children in city schools. Tuition cost the county $10,410, he said. Of these children, 62 entered Douglass Senior High. Four later widowed; seven entered Douglass Junior High; two were dropped; eleven were entered at Dunbar Junior High School. Assistant Hershner said the board is considering the claims of the parents to pay the tuition for five years, but there seems no likelihood for a county colored high school or the addition of an 8th grade to county elementary schools. White and colored elementary school pupils are given an examination at the end of the 7th grade. He under the superviosl of the board. Only those who pass are permitted to enter a high school. With patience, he declared, colored parents will see larger numbers each year pass the examinations. Last year only 10 passed. In 1912, he said, EYES EXAMINED—G B. MA DR. J. W.

Last year it had increased to 85 per cent. Average attendance in white schools was 87 per cent. The assistant superintendent said that, though Baltimore County only ordered 25 years of public schooling for white pupils, this was sufficient to admit them to standard colleges on equality with Baltimore City white pupils who have spent 12 years in public schools. New Schools The county board is authorized to buy a two-acre lot for a two-room school at Bergies, Md. The present school is housed in a badly litched house. At Turners Station a new 6-8 room school is planned and a new building is planned for Chattolance. Twenty-nine years ago.

THE ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION FIJIS SACRIFICE FINGERS FOR DEAD AUSTRALIA TYPICAL SOMAN WOMAN The chief of the marriage, death, a child is born, a client of num from a pig down, youngster; whi but a few hours the sea and Then comes the few days later mixture, much on its head to By Wilton Pember If you take a world-mar- k and study that it carefully you will find that about one hundred miles to the north of Cape York. Northern Queensland, lies the island of New Guinea, probably the largest island in the world. Originally owned by fierce headhunting cannibals. Many still row through the interior, but it is now ruled over by the Dutch and the British, who divide the island equally between them. The northeastern part was originally German New Guinea, but at the beginning of the Great War, was taken by the Australian forces and is now the Mandated Territory. The southeastern part of the island, originally called British New Guinea, is what I am about to tell you of in this chapter. The name was altered to Papua, which means fuzzy-headed, some years ago in order to avoid confusion with the northeastern part. It is about 90,000 square miles in extent, and has a population of about 250,000 natives. "Razor-Back" The country is rough and rugged, much of it being known as "razorback" formation. Some of the mountains are very high, their peaks rising above the valley, which have perpetual snow upon them, though they are quite close to the equator. These mountains in general are stern and savage-looking. The sides are so steep that the bare rock glows in the sun" Only "the bare rock glows in the sun" in the valleys the vegetation is luxurious and varied: wonderfully colored cactus and coleus, sago and coconut palms, area palms and peppers, beautiful lilies flourish in this pristine. Georgeous butterflies fit about, and the beautiful Bird of Paradise adds its luster to the scene. Papaver rhoeas are the largest. Borer is one of the largest in the world, and is navigable for about five hundred miles, and it has been said that "enough water comes down the river to provide everybody on this earth one hundred and twenty gallons each." Queer Life The people live in small villages. About fifteen to twenty houses generally form a village, and as very little order is preserved, the houses are built without any idea of town-planning. Sometimes they are built good for protection, or for pleasure, and the sea. All the houses are built upon high piles as a protection against white ants rats, and other vermin, which are numerous. These village houses are often covered with decorations and avenue figures, some of which are situated in the extreme. It is the form of art, still it shows a striving for beautiful things inherent in all people. Eat Bees and Ants Their main food is the yam (what like a potato), bread-fruit, taro (which is the root of a lily), bananas, sugarcane, pineapple and nuts. Someones they have pig, or fish, or lion, and with every prepared food the cocoons they are not over-ripe, for: the lion, the lizard, the snakes, like bees, bees, antles, stinging setimein fish, opossum, and even rats. Their clothing consists of very, as befits a hot country; grass who are worn by the womencifo, who are quite as keen on fashion as our own people, while men and boys wear a round leaf, fastened with a stairing around the waist, leaving the limbs free. Primitive Customs The Papuans still cling to their customs, rites and rituals, many of which are both straine and unique NATIVE POLICE AT SUVA, FIJI Every Time a Member of the Family Dies, Australian Relatives Have to Cut Off a Joint. Holes are Bored in Ears and Nose of Newly Born Infants. Adults Use Long Hair as Pockets to Keep Things In. The chief of them relate to birth, marriage, death and harvest. When a child is born the mother is the recipient; numerous presents are given to the youngster; when when the baby is but a few hours old it is taken to the sea and bathed in the waves. Then comes the next process, for a few days later some black resinous paste is applied to the ribbed on its head to harden the skin. The next process is to pierce holes in the child's ears, and, in some cases the nose, into which are stunts made bigger are made bigger as the child grows older, until it reaches a stage when a large plug of wood can be thrust into the stretched lobes. One never sees a birthday beast or celebration event, and are often ed as unlucky events, they are forbidden all about. Mutilation At the death of a relative the natives paint themselves with a mixture of charcoal and coconut oil, and this must be done with a brush, but must be renewed should it wear off before that time. Then again, if the relative is a near one a joint is taken off a finger as a re-creation of the original other islanders they go in for tattooing expensively, and this is done in youth with a thorn or other sharp point, which has been dipped into a strong blue dye, made from certain "Keens" Even from quite an early age, the hair of the Papuan gets quite a lot of attention, for children are taught by their parents to comb their hair long enough to keep it damp. Thus the furious mop becomes as good as a pocket, and is more often than not the receptacle of a strange assortment of bits of string, fish-hooks, pieces of coconut, and in fact, anything and everything that appeals to them. It must not be misunderstood by readers that the Papuans are distressed or derelict people. If one lives with these natives for a long time, they will find them as happy, virile race, and if treated properly, will respond in a way that will be beneficial to themselves and the world in general. It must be remembered that they have not been treated with high-rated races should help those not so blessed to realize the highest within them without imposing their civilization upon people with disastrous results, as is frequently Papuans Educated Much is being done for the Papuan of late years, by the federal government of Australia. The natives are being educated and are now much more active in quite an admirable way by the Australian authorities. The children, in most cases, are not only eager, but quick to learn, and the white teachers are more active than their general advancement, both from an educational and civilized standpoint—this, of course, is in the Mandated Territory, which, as the Australian government under Australian administration since the opening of the Great War: New Hebrides Situation As for the various groups of islands that stud the Pacific, there is an ever-increasing attention being paid by the authorities of the Dominion, unique in many things, is unique also in this, that alone among South Sea Island Governments it does nothing for the promotion of education. The teaching and training of the lives are left entirely to the unions. The question of education in the islands is complex and beset with difficulties. Children whose parents are emerging from the sea quite the same lines as boys and girls who are the product of a highly-developed civilization. The islander by nature is a tiller of the soil, and does work other than agriculture. The trades and industries of the islands are largely in the hands of Europeans and Japanese, and are likely to remain whole future of the native is bound up with the use he makes of his land. Witchcraft In bygone days the prevalence of witchcraft debarred any possibility of progress, and made *i* native content with his dugout cane important impetus towardeward construction.

For the most part the natives of today till the soil in the same fashion as their forefathers did in Captain Cook's day, merely scratching the surface their old-fashioned under such conditions the location of an island solid can never be complete until he The Paris Pepper-Pot By J. A. ROGERS International Correspondent and Author. is taught to farm his own land and can an able and intelligent cultivation. Only within recent years have the benefits of education been understood and appreciated by the natives. In addition, the prince schools were regarded as an unaccountable whim of the missionaries, and the scholars attended with the idea that they were conferring a favor upon them; attendance at school was regarded by the dark-skinned pupils as a service for which they were entitled to payment. Periodically, they demanded their "wages," and the children of a dispute could "strike" if they thought their wages were overdue. Certainly, the little islanders were not difficult to appease, and the more warded with calico hemlants, fish hocks, pocket knives, and such trinkets. The raw savage could see no meaning in purpose, his mission was to contend with contentious questions, asked why teachers should show a preference for children rather than muscular and sagacious men. The riddle is in a dramatic and conclusive way. A Dramatic Incident A Dramatic Incident During a Diving Mission Paama Mission Station. Mr. Sapii of Epi, in need of a tool, asked Apok, his native assistant, to go to the carpenter at the other end of the compound and get it. The native, a raw bushman, grabbed a grasp what was wanted. Plecking up a short piece of lining board, Mr. Sapii scribbled a message with a blue pencil, and handing it to Apok, told him to take it to the carpenter. The carpenter then looked first at the strange hydroglyphs scattered, higgled-piggled, over the board and then at Mr. Sapii, as if to say, what mad caper is this? The native scratched his woolly head and did it again. The carpenter looked—he tried to reassure. A door had been opened through which a flood of light streamed into the dark recueses of his vacant and primitive mind. Round the carpenter, the chief historian, and as a result of his first lesson in deductive reasoning, he drove home upon his fellow-islanders, the inevitable conclusion that the school was not such a mad venture after all. A glimpse of the far-reaching significance of education has at last dawned upon the native mind. The power of the printed book and written letter is no longer questioned, and the secret of wealth and security is revealed. When the tide turned and they began to see that school, instead of being a foolish and trivial fad was an institution maintained for their benefit, big brothers and bearded fathers, and even grandfather, had to declare declaring the printed page. But to their profound dismay, the autocratic warrior chieftains THAT one half the world does not know how the other half lives, is an old saying. But it would be truer to add: One-hundredth part of the world does not know how the other ninety-nine hundredths live. The American, for instance, can have little idea how the European passes his time. Life in Europe, while not nearly so opulent as in America, is freer and more natural. There is less restraint, and the student of life comes nearer to seeing human nature as it is. New information always relieves the monotony of existence. It takes us out of the rut and gives us new points of view; so we intend to give as accurate a picture as possible in this course of certain phases of ocean life. We do not intend to moralize but to present facts as they are. No, we take that jack. The Anglo-Saxon motto is: See that you are truth as little of it as display. So we can't. To continue, then the subject of The Afro American, Baltimore, Saturday, June 29, 1929 TYPICAL PAPUAN GIRL found that there was no royal road to knowledge... School An Ordeal Side by side with little children, accurately adding syllable to syllable and word to word, must they take their lesson, teach it, and stumble in pursuit of learning. One of the first experiments in school work the natives undertook on their own account, was made at Port St. Lucie, where the eager were the parents to provide educational facilities for their children that they decided, at a big palver, to secure the services of a resident, to take full time to the teaching of his pupils. During a visit of the district missionary, the chief announced the decision of the word conference and promo- tion of the word efficient teacher, to provide the salary. The missionary recommended the post to Jimmy Fletcher, a native of character and talent, but as the appointment was very much a challenge, Jimmy required a good deal of persuasion to accept it. Though only thirty years of age, Jimmy could boast of a varied and adventurous career, more in keeping with a soldier of fortune than a schoolmaster. When only one of the two brothers of the house was invaded, during a vendetta feud, by the chief of the opposing tribe, and Jimmy was awakened in the morning to find himself an orphan. As he and few friends, attracted and adored, adopting him as his son, gave him the family name Jimmy Grux. His adopted father was the last of the old style of South sea traders who, in the primitive days, were New Hebrews able to graftify his passion for adventure and hazard. Boylike, Jimmy idealized the dar-sel-feats of the sea rover, and, accompanying him on his cruises as first lieutenant, shared in his ventures and A.

Under his new tutor, Jimmy proved an apt pupil, and made excellent progress in book and field knowledge. When the the Montmartre cabaret.

The New School Master Success attended the new schoolmaster at Port Vale from the outset. Though two years have gone, the wave of enthusiasm which swept over the school has been embarked on the new venture, has not spent itself, and the children of their own accord, still troop to school. At the summons of the drum files of the school, the school's book schools may be seen on the tracks, converging on the school-house. Even parents spare time to look in and bestow upon the school their children with gifts to mothers and upon their children doing the strange exercises. The experience gained by the schoolmaster while in the service of the school is invaluable for making instruction in agriculture a part of the school curriculum. Every day, at the close of morning school, the pupils accompany Jimmy the teacher into up-to-date methods of work. They have laid out several tracts of land for the cultivation of cotton, an article of commerce in the country, and in mer these cotton fields are white with the bursting bolls. The white lint, resembling snow flakes, gives the place the appearance of a snow scene. Educational system of Papua is marvelous. The number of dialects one finds among the various pupils who meet at a certain school, is especially range from four to fifteen years of age, and come from many tribes, all of which have a different lingo. Some of them are exceedingly brilliant; others are good at technical work, such as carpentry.

THE CREEPING THING A Story of Gruesome and Haunting Mystery ```markdown ``` A "Leaning forward and bracing myself against the bulk of the man in front of me, I gripped the heavy iron knob in both hands and gave a great heaving turn without warning: . . . " WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE An eccentric oldie, Erra Systera, a monk in the monastery, a octagonal tower in his mysterious home, known as Selwyn House. Meme, two Halifah servants that have been with him ever since his return to Selwyn House where his young bride was lost in the Voo-oo-didden jungles, were the only other Dionaea heard a huge something creeping overhead and then heard wild wind blowing through the master's body. He summoned the neighbors. The body has been left for the monastery, and he goes to the octagonal room only to find that the body has disappeared. It is summoned to the case by his friend, Alea Jones. CHAPTER II The strange gaudness of Alec's brown face turned anxiously upward toward the slowly moving coach windows of the incoming train, prepared me for something more than his letter had told me. It did not save me from the shocking impact of the news that other guests carried to my consciousness, however. "It's got old Meme this time, Tom." he shot at me in a hoarse whisper when other guests or Alec? "What you must Alec?" I clutched after my vanishing composure with the question. It was not like Alec to be so agitated. His emotion under control as he my own. I gave me an unenemy sense of immanent fear to see him apparently so upset as to effect the effect of his weakness. I could tell by the gray pallor that underlay his ordinarily healthy bronze color, that he was still in front we were in a jerk, and my mind automatically dropped back to normality. I smiled. But Alec did not return my smile. But Alec did not grow more anxious as he stared straightly and seriously into my face. "It's passed the smiling stage, Tom." he said, and his voice was as loud as a rock beyond thinking about, the way this mysticious Death creeps upon its victims and takes them into oblivion. Snatches them out of life and then—consumes them, leaving no trace. I picked up my parcel that I had set down to grasp my friend's hand, but I turned toward the high boardwalk leading into the single paved Main street of Mellville. "Now, tell me about it." I curried me, my breath gave as the mood demanded and my confidence in his judgment decreed. "You know old Meme wasn't afraid of kids like you," I kidged kids used to try our Halloween tricks on her and how flat they fell. no matter how weirdly successful they might be on the more pullable end, she was just the same with this Thing. "Spite of the fact that she had old Diaron's version of the occurrence, she scuffed at the idea of supernatural "Old Meme knew too much about the really inexplicable happenings of her native Haitian jungles." I threw in, "to allow a mere unexplained murder and the disappearance of the body to frighten her." My reasoning must have been at fault. There was sadness in the conviction of Alec's voice, sadness and a thin thread of anyone else I would have called fear. A Plan "It in suite of all any of us could do," he continued, "she insisted that if we would let her stay in the room all night alone and Eza's death and maybe—her marve was almost sinister in its implication as she said it—produce his body, or part of it. There is no doubt that that was exploitable, at least to her if to none of the rest of us." Old Diarom seemed almost as fearful of her mood as moonlight and lengthened for her to remain for the night in that uncany octagonal room." Alec paused and drew a long breath. The eerie mystery of this thing had gotten Alec. I see in the awed and baffled body of his. "Well—" I wanted to rouse him By Cora Jean Moten The Well-Known Serial Writer *from the brief silence that seemed to grip him. He started and looked at me. The ghost of a smile touched his lips. "Yeah, it's got, me old man." Alec could almost always read my thoughts like that. He said he could see them in my eye though no one else had ever been able to read any more than I wished them to read there. her. she very tightly with fortuitous salveurance talk on to gath available I had learned to control my features in the best and most dangerous of schools. But, Alex and James. I had been boys together and, besides, insuperable chums in pleasure, and in danger. So, he perhaps of all persons, could sense changes that others could not. He knew the knowledge that was mine without words. He cleared his throat and shrugged as if throwing aside the incubus of fearfulness. "Well, we know of whole matter that was that all thought maybe. Meme, being a woman and a bit well, a bit uncanny—might get to the point of being a head of a line that we might catch hold of and—she was very firm and insistent about it. Old Diaron is so complete! at her bidding after forty years of school, and the poorest of allies in the general attempt to dissuade her. "Anhow. Meme," with some limiment for her rheumatism, retired to the octagonal room about dusk and shut her inell. She was firm in her decision to be taken, and should be taken. We felt it best to humor her, so, with the sole difference of our presence in the bacse sitting room, she was Dionon in his usual seat, at the entrance of the marrow hall. She was left to deal with the occasion in her room. "What besides yourself was in the sitting room?" I was a detective, and in my study of crime and criminals I knew that the truth was not connected with however remotely connected with a crime. must be accounted for. I knew that Alec Jonas was a keen observer with the instincts of the true detector of crime, but I saw that the weird and unusual character of the crime he was picturing out for me had ordinarily sharply analytic mind. Garland "Oh. I forgot," he said. "I hadn't told you about the coming of old Ezra's nephew, G. land. You know. of course, of his young wife. You know. the one who married the Haitian woman and and unusually well endowed with the instincts of the true detector of crime, but I saw that the weird and unusual man was picturing out for me had blunt-lived with her in the hinterland of the Haitian jungles. Well, Garlan, is the son of that marriage and—the man he turned up quite suddenly the day after the murder; no one seems to know just why or how. It is certain he was not in the vicinity prior to the murder, but he appears very mysteriously the day after it." Alec seemed to be waiting for some counsel but I made none, so he went on. "He was there with us that night and Alene Hardmore, the new woman an detective that wanted to take me into this on the invitation of young Selwyn (Garland) it seems. Then there was Jake: you know Jake is the marshal now, and the county Varan, that was all emergent, myself." We were at the gate of my mother's home now. I wanted to hear the rest of her talk. I didn't understand. Unlike most mothers, mine was not of the nervous, apprehensive kind. She loved bravery, and she loved her mother, although she knew the dangerous character of my work full well. I invited Alee in. A Strange Prescience The warmth of greeting between mother and me was in no wise interfered with because of its brevity. She knew with few words of explanation that I was home to take in the solution of the mystery of the THE GREEPING THING, and she was the kind that made everything easy for those about her. So it was only a matter of a very few minutes before Alec and I were installed in the library in comfortably deep chairs with coffee and sandwiches and our pipes and the assurance of an undisturbed hour of talk over the plans and, in my case, to gather un all the information available. "We were all talking," Alec resumed at length, when suddenly it was evil fell about us like a pall. One looked at the others. We all fell silent. It was almost as if we were waiting for something—we knew not what. Then family at first, we sensed something unusual about the quality of that silence. It seemed to develop a new element. Something was moving above our heads—furtively. I bent forward. The faces of my companions seemed tearful and breathless in horror and horrow disturbed. We all listened intently. "There was a dull swishing sound such as a heavy body might make if I were to walk into the room and sound as if some huge ungainly reptile were crawling over the ceiling above our heads. The sound awoke we seemed to chain us helpless as we sat staring at each other. Then as it seemed the horrible THING had begun to move, the width of the room in which we sat There was a short silence. Then a dull thud that sent a tremor through the whole house, and Horror "In premonitory dread the listeners in that room, rose as one man. Alene Hardy the outer hall, but Gateland Selwyn passed her there and in six bounds was up the stair and at the entrance to the narrow hall before old Dioron, wide-eyed and bent his arm about him. I was at his elbow when he reached the door of the octagonal room. More he could lay his hand on the knob we now it again. The horror was nearer now, nearer and more sinister. It was as if we could feel the undulating tremors of its body quivering through the dreadful in such close proximity to us was like the vibrations of no earthly creatures, rather it was as if the very corridor reeled under the dragging hold of some super-human monster. "Behind us in a line, filling the narrow passage to its length, were the rest of the watcher who hid within the fearfully and listening to the awful sound. "My throat seemed parched. I moistened my lips with my tongue and tried to breathe in a bronze-colored man who stood in front of me facing that fateful door that shut us off from the sinister mystery beyond it. I saw his great smile. He handed to tense himself for action and, then with a determined motion, he laid his hand on the knob of the door and turned. He walked in their purpose, as the knob failed to turn. Then I saw the tightening of the grip in the tautening skin above the joints of the closed hand." The knob did not move. Surprised chagrin dawned in the eyes of the big man as he turned his face to me: "Something is holding it from the other side," he whispered in an awed and unbelieving voice. "I felt the breathing of Alene Hardmere on the back of my neck. Her breath seemed eager, almost as if she was sniffing and saw the ahead of her." Blocked "Let me try," she said, and tried to push ahead. But the narrow corridor was scarcely large enough to allow of the passage. She pushed her hand back against the wall, there was no chance of her passing and just then I did not intend to give back for anyone. In note of the fear I felt of that continued scraping, creeping, and closed door. I was determined to try, to find out In Darker Baltimore BY RALP MATTHEWS SPARRINGS POINT — It's days like these, hot, torrid days, that you both envy, and pity the worker.

It's days like these, when the mercury soars high, the mercury heats up, the mark that makes it heat, that you feel that there is something radically wrong with an economic system which forces human beings to labor in place.

There is a smacking of hell around Sparrows Point these days, and your sympathy goes out to those, who earn armor in Hades. But do they ask your sympathy? No, it is quite misdirected. They scorn you. They look upon you or an air of contempt that they make no effort to understand, your white collar is wilted by the heat, your apparent discomfort, your suffocated look, is all a sign of weakness to them as they hurt their head, ladies—their unladed backs, revealing massive muscles that glitter from They sing as they work.

They are operated in a don't-care, listless fashion. Into one you walk down. When you get tired and your hat, you elbow yourself in the hat and walk out or go to the door of the kitchen and call. The proprietor seems to be quite peeved if you distract him. What do you do? He draws. Not moving his chair, Assured that he would like something to eat if he no as objection, he informs you that it is too hot to cook and he doesn't feel like bothering back in a rest. He are familiar with Sparrows Point, you will go about your business and molest him no further, but your stomach gets the better, your discretion you have sheepishly in your eyes or any ice cream or cold drinks? "Yes," he will reply. "But I don't feel like opening it, if you want something to eat, why don't you go down there over the garage back of the pool room, they might serve you." He resumes his seat by the window and you go to the place over the garage back of the pool room. He hospice is more proactive. The proprietor, a portly individual in a white apron, leans lesurely over the cash register. His eyes are glued on a game, his pool that is filled with playing on a badly scarred pool table. They are two of the kind of fellows that you saw in the steel plant, equally horrily, equally sunken. "Can I get something to eat here?" you ask meekly, cowed by your last experience. He waves his arm ward the rear, never removing his eyes from the pool table. "Uh huh! "Back there" you find a greasy cloth counter and a waitress equally greasy and decidedly more stale. After a while she asks you what you "Let me see your menu," you say, but you never should have said that. She looks mean at you and says, "We make it little difference whether you are fond of ham and cabbage or not. Everybody in Spain loves ham and cabbage. If you fail the waitress looks at you meaner. The proprietor turns his eyes toward you, his look is also mean. You offer ham and cabbage to you. Of course, a spell before you get the ham and cabbage, not because it isn't ready, but because folks in Scarrows Point don't rush when its hot. The chairs around the table aren't chairs at all; they are uprumped soft drink bottles, and you can comfortably, like outside hungry. They eat with a relish. The ham and cabbage is well cooked. You wipe your mouth with satisfaction. There is something carefree and primitive about Scarrows Point after the whistle bells and the lion machine is turned loose.

No worry of what the morrow holds. The plant behind them is ble, imposing. It may the day window to go round.

N.G. (Editorial in N.Y. World) With regard to the future that has been stirred up by his wife's presence at the White House, Oscar De Priest, Negro Representative in Congress from Illinois, gave out the following statement: It's all a lot of moonshine for any one to suggest that a question of social equality was raised in White House. My wife was invited not because she was white or black, Republican or Democrat, but because she thought anything of her personally. She was invited because she happened to be the wife of a member of Congress. That's all there was to that. When the Democratic Democrats, these haters, are trying to stir up prejudices and help themselves politically in those elections, the wife voted against Smith and gave votes for Hoover. The political effect will be to drive all colored votes back into the There can be no social equality question in this case. I am all a master of individual taste. It isn't national or racial. For instance, there are two blacks and two whites, whom I wouldn't care to have any social relations or contact. There are both blacks and whites, whom I wouldn't care to have a relationship with persons I like. I keep away from those I don't like. This is so clearly put. so profoundly. I have not only involved that there is little to add to it. Booker T Many of the correspondents of Southern newspapers have received instructions from their home offices to telegraph "something" to the Southern editor. On Southern editor telegraphed to his correspondent as follows: "Assertion if Washington was accustomed to the White House dinner by his wife. Also see if Roosevelt escorted her in to the dinner on his arm." N.Y. Herald (White) on "When Bookworm" Washington dinner with Roosevelt. 40 Other States White supremacy is falling. Somewhat akin to the excitement our good white Methodist brothers of the South say, predation of the black man is day after day, dwelling and grasshling of teeth that is ringing out from the South these days because of that little insignificant black man who is resolution from Florida calls upon President and Mrs. Hoover to "remember that the house in which they are temporarily residing is the White House, and that it is the black man in the North Carolina contributed to their becoming its custodians." To which Mr. Hoover could reply, "And so did 40 other states." But seriously, we do not white supremacy it fails so easily! - Chicago Defender Official Responsibility It is going to be very difficult for politically minded Southern people to bring a resident to the court and the point of acting in his official responsibility to the 12,000,000 Negroes of whom he is also President, the same way that the President would ward them, or the same way that the President himself would act toward them in his private life. There is no indication in principle of course. Colored Diplomats Too It is seen to be nothing more than a routine White House act, no more significant of any ambition on the part of Mrs. Hoover to encourage the establishment of a policy of social commingling that neither race desires, than the attendance of colored diplomats and their wives at a State Department reception is significant of a new American policy of racial amalgam- It is improbable that the White House will be moved by the indecent resolution adopted by the Florida legislature censuring Mrs. Hoover for entertaining Mrs. DoPriest, wife of the late Senator Robertson, against equality with the wives of white members of Congress. Florida is, in common with the rest of the country, the most negroic citizens. Such state of mind divides the country along color lines and makes two nations where there should be but one. The situation that is created is full of danger and of menace. It is senseless, as are all prejudices. It is a denial of the American doctrine of social, political and economic equality, or the elementary right of every citizen. Slowly and in the face of astounding handicaps the Negro is emerging as a major force in the country, attaching to it. Two or three more generations will see the Negro in every walk of life and holding in place the things he has well earned as any other. In such circumstances the bitter hostility and hatred of the Negro and of ignorance generally mustautomatically disappear. Meantime, it is the duty of every self-respecting American to avoid discourage prejudice on all occasions. Phila. Daily News (white) A 3.

Polar navigation by airplane is difficult because the compass is south; the sun is constantly on the meridian—always noon unless it is night. Magnetic and gyroscopic compasses, are useless. Commander of the ship must insure the compass, a reversal of the sun-dial. In the latter north is known, and the sun's shadow indicates time of day; with sun-compass time of day is measured when the ship's hand of the 24-hour clock faces the directions. The movement of the hour hand being in opposite direction to the revolution of the compass, in effect makes the sun stand still, so the navigator can steer with reference to it.

Declaring that the president of the local branch of the N.A.A.C. P, had practically deserted the organization in its effort to raise the Ballimore quota in the 20th anniversary series of the national body, Mrs Martha Evelyn Brown, Secretary, announced that $72 had been forwarded to New York as a result of the local effort. "About six weeks before the opening of the contest plans for the same were presented to the president of the local branch. When after a reasonable time, no response was received by the secretary, the President was urged to act upon the plants presented or to suggest another plan supporting the 20th anniversary fund. There was no response, however. "On Friday, March 8th at a meeting addressed by Miss Mary White Owington, those present pledged to support the apportionment for this year. It is noteworthy that Miss Owington believed that Baltimore would keep faith with the national body. The branch has no paid its apportionment for more than $100,000. It would meet the apportionment in this the 20th anniversary year. "When there was no response from the president, the secretary asked to go ahead with plans for raising the money for the branch. Permission was given and the plans were completed." "With no executive committee or other officer to look to for support the contest was carried on entirely by the contestants and the board, and concerns the contest has been a failure, but it has gained for the branch more than 70 memberships. The branch has been judged and judged in the past five years. Because of this alone we think in spite of the failure to raise the apportionment, we better off than it has been in years."

HUBBARD THRILLS Husky Outfielder Raps 3 Triples, 2 Doubles, 1 Single. The local Black Sox did not see any reason for showing pity towards the unfortunate cellariding Cub Star, and proceeded to hand them a double lacing Sunday. The locals began their stick work in the first game without any preliminary whiffing. Boss Warfield, first up, walked; Washington singled to left; Winters singled to score Warfield; Dixon whiffed, and Lundy sent a long sacrifice fly to center to Marcel went. Corgea flygren. Cubans Tally in Sixth The Cubans went scoreless until the sixth. Alfonso flew out to Hubbard, and Baro got on when Lundy muffed the ball. Warren got on. Washington, scoring Baro, and Corra flew out to Dixon. Sox Get 7 in Fourth. The first game was no longer in play, the locals poured Silo for six hits and two free tickets for a total of seven runs. In this stanza Hubbard rapped out a three-bagger, his second during the game, and Hubbard smashed the bill for two sacks. Hubbard Shines By far the most brilliant luminary of the Sox's sick man was Jess Hubbard, who clouted a thousand, getting three triples and one single out of four trips, and scoring twice. In the third frist game a log on the mound ename the Sox's fly in the third inning. In the sixth, Dixon smashed the left-field wall for three bases. The double killing of Dixon and Lundy in the sixth by Alfonso to Solis to Fernandez prevented Dixon from scoring after riding the apples in the third inning. Solis was sent to the showers in the fourth with two men down and the bases drunk. Juanelo took up the burden and let Marcel pop up to Perez to end a scoring bee which began when Solis allowed Dixon's first hit and let Warfield and Winters rumped home. The final score was 12 to 3. Second Game In the nightcap of the twin bill, Flourney was opposed by the veteran Gisentaner, who sent up slants which the Sox were unable to solve until the fifth. Until then, not one slant, but two, was missed, but old Gisentaner walked Dixon and after that three runs came across. The Cubans touched Flourny for six hits, one in the second, third, fifth, seventh and two in the fourth, but could not score. The Sox scored two doubles and two runs towards the cause in this game, but hit into a double play to Perez unassisted in the eight to retire Clark. Flourny whitewashed the Islanders 5-0, allowing only six scattered hits, while his mates garnered eight smackers for the five markers.

Royals Divvy With Hollins Club ROYALS SPLIT BILL WITH HOLLINS NINE First Game Won by 9-5 Score, But Second Dropped by 5-1 Margin. "Pencil" Fans 10 in Brilliant Exhibition. With "Pencil" Williams, elongated moundsman, serving them up in dazzling style, the Eoenzer Royals took the first game from the Hollis A. C. Sunday, by a 9-5 score, but dropped the second contest, 5 to 1, at the Hollis Oval, Hollis and Catherine streets. Williams, formerly with the Pittsburgh Giants, had only one bad injury, the eight, when three Hollis runners trotted across the pan. Previous to this he had held the West Baltimore nine to two runs, while his mates had been piling up seven runs. No Hits. Yet Score R1 The Royals scored one run in the first inning, though they made no hits. "Yocko" Jackson opened by drawing a three-run shot from Hen Pen. Stewart hit into a double play which killed Garnett at second but allowed Jackson to reach the third hassock. "Puddin' that should have been an out for Clark, Holins' centerfielder, but the bulky outdoor garden booted is allowing Parker to get two bases and score to Saunders. Williams then lined out to Saunders. The Hollins crew counted when the second came home on Harris's double. They tallied again in the second and counted home after two hands were down. Rally In Fifth A fifth inning rally by the Royals, however, put them in front. "Pencil" Williams singled. Jackson walked and when Harris fondled Garnett's easy tap, Williams dashed home and all of the runners were safe. Stewart's single scored Jackson and Williams and Williams Stewart home with the third scoring a minute later when Campbell smacked out a two-ply blow. Williams breezed along on the mound safely until the eighth, and during the course of the attack, he mixed in floaters. His mixture of dusters, dusters and gas balls was puzzling to more than one Hollins batsman. In the Hollins half of the eighth, he was able to clark on Clark's circuit crash. H Williams' mud of Saunders grounder, paved the war for another run, when the latter scored on Edel's long sin- Garnett Saves Day Two triples were hit by the Royals in their half of the ninth, one by who could have stretched the ball into a home run. With two men on base in their half, the Royals hit Hollis outfit looked as if it would be dangerous. Garnets great catch of Harris's long right field, however, saved the day. Second Game In the second game, a more illstress affair, the Royals with Clash pitching, bowed before the shoots of Foreman, who helped win his own game by knocking a home run. HOLLIN'S A.C.

LINCOLNS TAKE TWO FROM BACHARACHS LINCOLNS TAKE TWO FROM BACHARACHS NEW YORK-Although handicapped by the absence of Lloyd and Scales, the Iowa Lions Giants won their fourth straight doubleheader at Protectory Oval Sunday when they defeated the Bachacanants by scores of 12-11 and 7-2. Lloyd was out of the game because of a bad leg and Scales was called doubt because of a death in family. Rally in Ninth The Lincoln staged a ninth inning rally to win the first game after playing ragged ball for most of the other eight innings. In the third inning they hit by Eggleton but did not the visitors hitting in the fourth, and by the sixth inning, they were leading by two runs. When the ninth inning came up the Bachrach team was clearing both balls in the Lincoln's half of the ninth, Smith singled and Riggins gained his base on an error by Henderson, who finished the game as pitcher for the visitors. Then Riggins pitched a two-hager, scoring both Riggins and Spearman. CHIEFTAINS ROUT SILVER MOONS, 7-6 The Chieffain A. C. tossers stuck anotherather in their caps Sunday, when they nosed out the Silver Moons outfit by a 7 to 6 score, at Drudhill Park before they personified their margin of victory by scoring four runs in the first inning, and when they were overtaken by the Silver Moons, staged two tails in the second half to win. The Moons scored in the third inning when Johnson drew a pass and scored on Savage's long home to deen centerfield. In the fourth inning Smith hit a home run, scoring Mossell and Gay ahead. Moons Miss Chance The Moons lost a fine opportunity to win this game, when in the fifth frame with the bases loaded Branch, usually a dangerous hitter, lifted a long fly to Hillson in the circuit clout in the fifth to the score and McComas came across in the sixth with the winning tally.

Pelayo Chacon's New Cuban Club Precipitates Moguls' Action. SUSPENDED MEN BACK PHILADELPHIA. — Reports that Pelago Chacon, former shortstop of the Original Cuban Stars, member club of the American League, was bringing seven suspended players of Alejandro Pompe's team to this country as the nucleus of an outlaw club have been acted on quickly the officials of the League. By Booking agents throughout the East are advised of the league ruling that no club will play any team which plays any outfit using a suspended player or in any park where team plays. such a. The following men accepted terms with Pompey and some of them resided advance money: Oms, Rosell, Valgas, Valgas, Peorosa, Baglana and Beijenar. All of them except Rosell and Valgas have been members of the Original Cuban Stars. Refused to Report These men went to San Domingo following the close of the Cuban Winter league and refused to report to Pompey in time to start the A.N. season here. Rumors it have that the backer of Chacon and the new team is Nat Strong, former owner of the Brooklyn Giants. Strong is a powerful factor in independent baseball and New York City. Race Tightens When the Homestead Grays took four straight games from the Baltimore Black Sox they pulled that team out of first place, elevated the Lincoln Giants to the premier position and pulled themselves into second place. Games in the past week have resulted in changes in all six positions in the league with three runs in and out of the glory hole. The closing days of the race bid fair to be exciting and the winner of the first half may not be decided until the last day. July 4th. The clubs have arranged their schedules to get as many postponed games played as possible. Rain and cold weather seriously hampered the early days of the flag Suspended in Game Buz Mackey, of Hildale and Georce Carr and Ping Gardner, of the Bacharach Giants, have served out their term of suspension and now working in league gear.

The Passing Review THERE IS AN ARGUMENT, as is usually the case, among local followers of amateur and semi-pro baseball, on the matter of which is the best baseball team in Baltimore. Of the several clubs in Baltimore and vicinity, perhaps the strongest claims heard are those of the Ebenezer Royals, Locker A.C., Baltimore Giants, Mt. Winans A.C., Chieftains, Oval Blues, Silver Moors and a few others. Frequently the cry is raised that a certain club "ran out" on another club and that all efforts to get the two together be futile. With the first half of the season coming to a close, we feel that it is not amiss to ask the men of these various contending units to get together in order to arrange a series which will allow all of the clubs to meet each other before the season comes to an end. While this is a little different from a league series, we believe that it will give a rather definite answer to the question, "Who is the champion?" There has been too much "woofing" going on without basis, and we are anxious to see a settlement of the matter. Another thing that we would like to call to the attention of managers is that pitching I've seen has been good, but boy. I've seen some miserable support pitches, pitchers who have practically won their own championship. Eligible We'd like to add to Mr. Slocum's remarks that managers please learn the correct way to fill in score sheets. Thanx to the improvement of a number of clubs in sending in their score sheets correctly filled, we have been able to make more detailed reports. Look on these pages at the various box scores for examples. G YOU NEVER CAN TELL what's going to happen in baseball, and as we write this the Black Sox are making a desperate attempt to regain first position in the standing of the American League. An unfortunate road trip saw the local tossers drop six out of seven games, and the Johnson's used a two ahead of three applauded him with the Honeoad Grays vapping at their heels, the task of George Rossiter's boys is anything but an enviable one. The temporary shifting of Winters to first base, and the strengthening of the locals' pitching staff may be the desired changes to get the locals back once more into pennant-winning form. "Babe Ruth" Wilson is away back in his hitting, compared to what he has been doing in past years. "Rap Dixxon and Jess Hubbard have no consistency in connecting with the apple, but the "Babe" is confident that he will hit his stride many more balls are passed. The Sox are out to regain their lost laurels, and woe to those who stand in their way. A HORRID EXAMPLE of what we preached about some columbs back, concerning the accuracy in filling out score sheets, may be seen from the following reports of a local Sunday baseball game, one report being sent in by each of the teams. We call your attention to the wide discrepancies in the two accounts, and urge that you note in one report that only eight players are listed in the lineup of one of the teams. There is even a difference of opinion as to the innings in which the several runs were scored. But we need go no further. Examine these two box scores carefully and then resolve that you and your team will not be guilty of a similar offense. Learn how to fill out a score sheet now.

C. split a doubleheader at Sparrows Point, Sunday, with the Three Stars nine, winning the first game, 8-6, but dropping the second contest by a 5 to 6 verdict. Tyson pitched well for the Artemas tossers in the first contest and his mates gave him good support. Malone and Stoke proved the batting stars, the former setting three home runs in the two games, and getting into the first game. Poor fielding contributed greatly to the loss of the second contest.

Pat Pansy: It is indeed the month of weddings, the couple has taken the epic Baltimore folk. when they were leaving the nuptial rites had been a lot simpler than they thought. They simply wanted to be by their realize that they belonged to other. Mary Childs and Forson both of Towson, invited their wedding and I heard that a pretty one, too, but Little Forsonville, and Mary I would have had a hit if I threw. Agnes Matthews of Monkton pounded a fire at who took other for better. They are the latest married Other Wedding tale as well. While visiting in Towson the other day, while visiting was outstanding, for weddings there had to be become a necessity, since the towns of Baltimore and new towns of Maryland were lately, from Baltimore, marriage honeys recently, but to the location interest at an afternoon hotel there but our own Nellie of 1139 W.

Agnes Matthews of Monkton and Raymond Speed of Phoenix are another couple who are the most worse. They are the intest married couple." Other Weddings Other weddings that went on at Towson that I happened to hear about were, Clyde Phillips and our little friend, Delisse Harvey; Edmond Dorsey and the popular Persia Robinson of Ruxton. This is the second trip to the altar for both of them, Cornelius J. Edwards of Sparrows Point, and Elizabeth Duncan of Chase. Mr. were also married. Still more surprising, Lucy Cornish, of Chase, and William Marshall, of Bengies, Md.; Lawrence O. Sears of 1706 Mulberry street, rather than be married in Baltimore to Edith Brown, of 2518 Madison avenue, were among those who slipped out to Towson. Verna Waters, of Eikridge, and Lawrence Pannon, of Relay, Md., came out smiling when the minister said "Go in peace and sin no matter." Spencer Battle, another of our Baltimoreans and Harriet E. Barthrope, forsook their Baltimore friends and were joined in wedlock. Charles Banks, Jr., and Helen A. Miller, both of Towson, declared they could not do without each other any longer and joined the matrimonial family. Congratulations to those who have dared take the chance — and yet, what is a more perfect union than marriage? Charlie Here. Charles M. Thomas, of the Washington Times, came by the AFRO office Sunday. His folks were away. He was delighted with the democracy of Dr. Hill Park.

Wallace of Durham, N.C. in Washington this week by the Rev. W. W. Hill. From Philadelphia came Claire N. Lann to claim Loutte H. Craig, D.C. girl, as his bride. **Guest Lists** Hostesses who have entertained for years, and to whom throwing a reception or a courtroom guest list is available for making the guest lists available for the editors of newspapers. But when somebody was present, they are out and out, or when the hostess is a driver, or a newly rich, getting a guest list is as difficult as a marriage aid. *Summer Home* The Thomas R.

MADE HIP POCKET MOVE Riot Gun Squad Rushed to An unidentified man, said to have come over with a pal from Washington, killed one man and stabbed another when he cut his way out of the heart of the Pennsylvania avenue shopping district, Saturday night. The killing and disturbance, which occurred near that section of Pennsylvania avenue where Patrolman Doebler was shot down a year ago by a man he had just arrested, brought about an emergency offence with riot guns to the scene, but the slasher has made good his escape by the time they arrived. Eye witnesses to the affair and police say that the two men came over from Washington and had visited several places of amusement when they went to the house of Miss Carrion, a 700 block. The night started there when one of the men, repulsed by the young woman, produced a clasp knife and cut her. She screamed and they ran. Across the street John Finger, 74, white, turned and saw the man coming. Whether he meant to block the course of the fleeing man, but one who probably had been, but its evident that he was in his path when he was stabbed in the shoulder. Pistol Feint It is known, however, that Morris Rothchild, 23, the other man cut by the D.C. visitor, made a feint to capture him by threateningly putting his hand into his hip pocket as if to draw gun shots. He shot his gun, his arm and slashed him. No one else attempted to stop him until a large squad of police with sawed off shot guns covered the entire vicinity of the shooting. 3-INCH PIECE OF STEEL IN GIRL'S SKULL Operation Fails to Save Life of Miss Clara Brown After Accident.
