TO TRADE RACE CONSTABLES FOR NEW COUNCILMAN Since the death of the late Councilman Howard M. Rollins, the first member of the Republican party to the fact that, even with James O'Meara sticking with the Republicans, the vote has been a tie on all party matters. Neither the Republican or Democratic parties can break through and muster a majority to elect Rollins' successor. Those in the know say that some high-sounding bargaining has been resorted to, but without avail. Bryant is Key But it is known that the strain of every man having to be in his own office, the nerves of the members, and President Howard Bryant is said to have been listening to talk of a compromise. It is this talk, they say, which includes the retention of the present constables and the abandoning of the slate which contains the names of several race men. Lost their Chance Although the slate was made up several weeks before the death of Councilman Rolls, the table also shows their opportunity by disagreement among themselves as to the personnel. Rolls died on Friday, three days before the matter was to be taken to the council. Councilman Emerson and McGuinn, it is said, will vote with the administration, even if the race must be sacrificed. It is understood that more important administration measures and appointments are at A state which would give the nominations to two race members of the House, while the four other candidates in the Fourth District would go to white men, it is being worked out, it is said. There is, however, considerable opportunity among leaders to this slate. They contend that, although they constitute slightly more than sixty per cent of the voting strength of the district, less than forty per cent of the representation in the House. Arthur Briscoe, now deputy city attorney, is said to be among those who will go into this fight. John Hoyle is a candidate at the last election. A. F. L. LEADER IS HECKLED IN N.Y. MEETING Pres. William Green, White, Terms His Questioners Mischief-Makers. RANDOLPH QUIZZED TOO Federation of Labor Opposes Discrimination, Says Green. NEW YORK, N. Y. William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, was heckled during his speech in which he pledged the full support of the Federation to the wage demands of Pullman car porters and maids, at their meeting in the Abyssinian Baptist church Sunday. Mr. Green, who came to aid in the unionization work of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, denounced racial prejudice in labor ranks and made an open bid for Negro labor. He promised separate charters to racial groups barred by unions. Randolph Interrupted Before Mr. Green rose to speak his critics in the audience voiced their skepticism of his good faith, and he was interrupted by the organizer of the Pullman porters and maids, was interrupted in his introduction of the federation president, who was the first to strike last year" he was asked. Mr. Randolph ignored the question except to say that the meeting was served from its scheduled purpose. Tern on Green While Mr. Green was speaking, the hecklers turned on him. He had just asserted that 100 out of 105 international unions the Mr. Green agro membership and that the federation would charter directly Negro applicants refused by remaining unions when another union asked to how many unions have you done that? a heckler asked. "I am speaking facts," replied Mr. Green heatedly, "and when you are told they will them I will meet you and talk to you." Mischief Makers "My presence here ought to be an answer to the mischief makers who say that the A.F. of L. is not inimitable to the color of the collar assured." In 1893 the Federation declared that the working people must unite to organize irrespective of creed, color, race or nationality, record shows or national record shows that view. The Federation stands unalterably on the principles of no discrimination. When our movement departs from the fundamental principle, it will remain. Interested Mr. Green insisted that the Federation and he personally are "immeasurably interested" in the Pullman, in the wood, to give them "a support possible." Trade Union League Thehecklers, who said they were members of the Trade Union Educational League, distributed a leaflet on the American Federation of Labor was racially prejudiced and that its controlling "reationary clique" had reluctantly joined the Sleeping Car Porters and was organizing their inefficiency. their memory Ray Loses Again Ray Loses Again HARRISBURG, Pa.—The Supreme Court dismissed an appeal of Joseph Ray to recover one-half interest in his Bettlehem real estate from his wife, Nora Holt Ray, from whom he Bettlehem.

His attention was called to the United's street cars which hailed every motor vehicle and conducted had defended to state what instructions his company had issued to bus motor vehicles.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, July 6, 1929 No Jobs to Faithful Who Aided in Campaign; Differences Hinted. 5 HAVE COMMISSIONS WASHINGTON, D.C.—Unofficial word comes from the White House that President Hoover is favorably disposed to the political aspirations of colored people and would reward those who have been faithful to the Republican party but he is hindered in doing anything to promote their desires by factional differences among them. In addition to the traditional places that go to Negroes under Republican administrations, it was predicted that President Hoover would make some appointments to positions that have never been held by colored men. At least, those who had authority to speak for him in the campaign made such promises. Promises Not Fulfilled These promises are not being fulfilled. The Hoover administration has been virtually inactive so far as the appointment of colored Republicans to office is concerned. Those holding Presidential offices have not been disturbed, but in the four months the Hoover administration has been in charge of the Government not a single-colored man appointed to office by the President. Three Minor Places Three minor appointments have been made by Cabinet officers. The third was made by the death of incumbents. The third was made because there was no alternative, the only persons qualified for the position under the civil service Emory A. Bryant, Jr. was appointed as chief clerk at large in the railway mail service of the Postmaster General Walter F. Brown. He succeeded the late John D. Gainey. Brown Acts Quickly Brown supervised the activities of the colored officers of the national military committee in the Presidential campaign. It was thought that surely he would give consideration to the wishes of the men with whom he had associated campaigners. But before anyone could submit a recommendation to him, Brown promoted Bryant from the mail clerk position for named all post-commissioners in regard to the choice of a successor to Gainey. Second Assistant Postmaster General Warren Irving Glover explained that the promotion of Bryant was Asst. U.S. Attorney Ernest J. Davis. P. young man was appointed to succeed the late Thomas as L. Jones as an assistant to the District of Columbia. This appointment was made by Attorney General William D. Mitchell upon the recommendation of United States Congress, a special political significance. Mr. Davis was endorsed by the leaders of the District of Columbia Republican organization. His appointment is credited to D. Dunnett J. Scott and John R. Hawkins. Virginia: Postmaster Thornton G. Nightingale was appointed postmaster at Blenheim, Almbermable County, Va. This is fourth class post made by the postmaster General Brown upon the recommendation of Representative J. A. Garber. Republican, of the seventh congressional district, of the state of Virginia. Mr. Nightingale of this appointment is that no white person qualified for the office. Five Commissions There are only five colored men holding commissions from the President of the deceased of the District of Harding or of either President Harding or President Coolidge and continued in office by President Hoover. He then minister to Liberia; Charles W. Anderson, collector of internal revenue. New York: Walter. L. Cohen collector of internal revenue. New York: James A. Cobb of the municipal court of the District of Columbia, and Arthur G. Froe, recordor of deeds of the District of Columbia. No Successor to Perry No successor to Perry W. Howard former $6,000 a year special assistant to the Attorney General, has been chosen. Robyn Koehler was the choice of colored Republicans for the place but the Attorney General has not vet made an appointment. There is only one colored attorney in the department of Justice. He is Larry R.

PICK DEPRIEST TO NOMINATE CASPER HOLSTEIN Congressman to Come as Delegate from Fort Dearborn Lodge, Chicago. 33 AT NEW YORK MEET Curley Says Many Lodges Refused to Attend. NEW YORK, N. Y.

The congressman and Holstein have been friends for years, according to those managing the Holstein campaign, and he has accepted the invitation to nominate him. DePriest will come as a delegate from Fort Dearborn Lodge, Chicago. SECOND SESSION In a statement sent out from the Holstein headquarters this week, it was declared that most of the lodges in New York state refused to participate in the state association which met recently at Saratoga Springs. Twenty-five persons were present, they say, when the vote to endorse J. Finney and also rule was taken. There were not more than thirty-three delegates at the entire session, according to Mr. Curley. The delegates included Samuel D. Walton of New Rochelle, president; Emanuel Brussard of Jamaica secretary; and Chester Johnson of Sparkhill, treasurer.

Black and Brown to Open Eyes of Backward Dixie NO INTERMARRIAGE "Members of these different castes may not eat together or intermarry. Otherwise no other lines are drawn. Young people who are not trained distrusted socially. They are not arrested. Many young people defy caste." Mahatma Ghandi, of whom Mr. Parboshingn speaks, has revenge for the injustice is breaking down caste lines, he said, by putting low caste teachers in the public schools and insisting that they teach the children of all castes. FAMINE—WEALTH. Asked how did he account for the fabulous wealth of some Indian tribes, some lower classes, Mr. Parboshingn said. "Another reason is the Indian's belief that all life is sacred. Instead of eating or eating vegetables, a Worn out cow or oxen is permitted in his old age to eat him to death in a pasture. "Youthful India will eat meat, but it will take a long time to convert the older people. I never ate meat until I was 18." INDEPENDENCE. "India will eventually become independent of white rule," Mr. Parboisingh declared. He was India's non-resistance program which has baffled the English military. City Edition Showers.

WASHINGTON, (C.N.S.)—John P. Attkinson, 209 Tenth street, southwest, the ranking member of the Senate Corps, who has just rounded out a number of co-operative service at the Capitol as assistant clerk of the Committee on Enrolled Bills of the Senate, will receive a $400 increase under the bill passed by the Speaker, to increase the number of the employees of the Capitol, effective July first. The Committee on Enrolled Bills is charged with examining all bills, or joint resolutions that have passed both Houses, to see that the same are correctly enrolled and signed by the Speaker of the House and the President of the Senate. The Committee is responsible for the delivery to the President of the United States of all bills which originated in the Senate. Mr. Akkinson is the custodian of each measure from the time it is received at the Committee room and the receipts for it until it is signed by the Speaker of the Senate. The engrossed bill is personally delivered by him to the executive offices for the President's signature. It was largely due to him that Howard University acquired a dupli-ment of the enrolled bill which legalizes the annual appropriations to the institution, which is duly signed by the Speaker of the House, the President of the Senate, the of the Senate, and also the union with which President Coolidge signed the law. 50.

KENE, M.D. Corresponding Secretary, Medico Chirurgical Society of the District of Columbia To the Editor:— One of your recent issues carried a statement by Bishop Jones of the A.M.E.Z. Church in Washington, the crowding of physicians in Washington, and uttered uncomplimentary remarks concerning their efficiency. In discussing this question, I speak not only of the Medico-Chirurgical Society of the District of Columbia, but also for any of those who may have a feeling of gullibility for failure to secure the good bishops' practice upon practice in Washington. Stumble Over Twenty-five The good bishop uttered words to the effect that it is necessary to stumble before reaching a good one. This means that out of approximately 150 colored physicians in Washington, there are only six who meet the application requirements; there are mediocre physicians in Washington just as there are mediocre teachers and lawyers, and if we looked further, probably run across mediocre bishop. However, the majority of the doctors in Washington are highly efficient. There are some who are outstanding, and they are not only a credit to their race but to the profession at large. It is hard to these men to accuse them of inefficiency and to find doubly unjust enmity, as from one who has enjoyed a good reputation as a man of justice and sound judgment. DEPUINE PHILLIPS FILK OF MAGNESIA For Troubles due to Acid INDIGESTION ACID TO TOMACH HEADBURN HEADJACK CASES MAGUSEA Many people, two hours after eat- ing, suffer indigestion as they can it. It is usually excess acid. Correct it with an alkali. The best is the quickest, the efficient, the cheapest. Phillips' Milk of Magnesia. It has remained for 50 years the standard with physicians. One spoonful in water neutralizes your times its volume and the acids one. The symptoms disappear in five minutes. You will never use crude methods when you know this better method. And you will never suffer from excess acid when you prove out this sake do that—for your sake—now. Be sure to get the genuine Philips' Milk of Magnesia prescribed by physicians for 50 years in correcting Look young. Keep your hair black. Laricase will do it in 15 minutes. Easy to apply. One application makes the hair a humorous black. No stickiness or odor. Any that gets on scalp washes off quickly. Thousands LARIEUSE FRENCH HAIR COLORING Big Task Medical men, as inefficient as they may be, have one thing in their pocket: trust. They are entrusted with the health of the community, and that it is a big task requiring all their time. Therefore, they do not consume time dictating to the clergy, and telling them what the health department, unaware that self betterment is to come time better health. D. C. Overcrowded I agree with His Divine Holiness when he says that Washington is the best doctor. How do we account for such a dilution? Washington is the cradle of the colored physician. It is the seat of Howard Medical School where doctors work. Here we have Freedmen Hospital which offers the colored doctor a greater wealth of clinical material than any other institution in the world, and a medical graduate decision remain here for a few years to increase his efficiency before going into some field where there are less doctors, but more faculty for consultation and hospitalization. Pastors Toc Yes, Washington is greatly crowded with doctors. The proportion of leisuretime officers is almost the same that that of physicians. The greatest difference is that the physician has to qualify.

"There is more power in the American brand of race prejudice than there is in the brand of Christianity which is propagated in this country. Men out of every land under the sun have come to dwell in the midst of this nation—a nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the ideals of justice and happiness. Yet our country has found a way in philanthropy and moral slavery than any of the so-called Christian nations of modern times. "America's greatest social welfare game is to shut the door of opportunity and then open the purse of benevolent charity to the Negro race." Lynching, segregation, mob lawlessness and race prejudice. Miss Burroughs characterized as "a millstone about the neck of American democracy that will drag it down" unless justice is substituted for inequalities.

Nadinola B Many Committed Unnecessarily to State Institutions CHURCH FAILS Catholics Aid Foreign Born. CLEVELAND — Juvenile delinquents lack organizations to come to their aid, and to save them from commitment to state institutions, declared Mrs. Eleanor R. Wembridge, Referee of the Juvenile Court in Cleveland, speaking Monday before a mass meeting of the N.A.A.C.P. in 20th Annual Conference here. Colored girls do, however, enjoy advantages over the children of foreign-born the city, declared Mrs. Wembridge, in that they have a common language. English, with their parents, and colored parents do as do foreign-born parents, take their children's wages as a family tax. "Although they talk much of their church connections, no one from the church ever seems interested to help them," she said. "They largely from Catholic countries can always depend upon a convent to take an interest in them and parole them if necessary. It is almost impossible to find colored homes where girls can be placed with supervision. It is also difficult to find institutions to put them in." "It falls out, therefore that colored girls are often put into state institutions where a white girl, having committed the same misdemeanor, would not have to be placed there because members of her neighborhood, each of the church and social group would render assistance. Similar members of the church and social groups of the colored girl delinquent lend no assistance whatever." Police Hold D. C.

Bleaching Cream RACE MUST VOTE IN SOUTH, SAYS JUDGE JAYNE "Ncgroes Next Battle Ground in America Is Over the Ballot," Jurist Believes. Jurist Tells N. A. A. C. P., Young Men Must Go South. CLEVELAND, O.—The Negro's next battleground in America is over the ballot, declared Judge Ira W. Jayne, of the Wayne County circuit court, Detroit, addressing a mass mutiling last Friday night, of the N.A.A.C.P. annual session. "The most ardent advocates enforcing some of the amendments to the constitution are the most strenuous nullifiers of the 4th and 15th amendments," declared Judge Jayne. "The reapportionment battle in Congress has pointed out the vulnerable point of attack. It has shown that our southern colored brothers are of value to our cause. "If we follow up this advantage we must come into our own in the South. It is the Negro's next battleground for the major engagements." - George C. Bush "I said once to a convention of the N.A.A.C.P., that were I a Negro in the South I should come North, but I said that the time would come for this group to turn again to the South. The time is now. The challenge is here. "The last presidential campaign was disheartening and discouraging. It brought little immediate hope or joy but it brought a pollen opportunity. Two evenly matched political parties bring this hope and opportunity. The chance to vote and to have the vote counted is protected by law. Primary Cases "The most valuable effort in a large way of the N.A.A.C.P. is its campaign through of the white primary election cases. City politics has the balance of power will not enact a segregation ordinance will not deny to voters their constitutional rights."

We resolve that the clerk be instructed to sent enlistment to the B. Bayer explaining that the discountess he suffered is not an exclusion desired by the synod. "To assure him and all commissioners of his race an equal right to share all the privileges and duties of the synod as such wherever we meet and the satisfactory work will be for them their entertainment in town as is done in presbyteries and general assemblies, we further resolve that the matter of the next meeting of the synod be referred to the synod council and to the synodical council in joint meeting to determine where a place can be obtained where the special 'race distinction would not be raised.' The Rev. A. Brown Caldwell, pastor of Walbrook Presbyterian Church, who was elected moderator, stated that Negroes are in no wise excluded from the sessions of the conference or synod and that the synod is always ready to make provision for any commissioner in the town where the things are being held. Dr. Joseph H. Apple, president of the college, was absent and no official statement for the institution could be obtained. P.

RAGE TRAINING IN HANDS OF WOMEN Mrs. Sallie Stewart, Head of National Women's Clubs, Talks in Cleveland. But Thousands of Women To CLEVELAND—Training of the race is in the hands of colored women, said Mrs. Sallie W. Stewart, President of the National Association of Colored Women, speaking Thursday before the N. A.A.C.P. Mrs. Stewart asserted that it was the task of Negro women to re-cut the undesirable traits fostered by slavery and the results of slave life. The ten or twelve generations of slave life said Mrs. Stewart, "the log cabin with no floor nothing of comfort nothing of beauty, caused the Negro to recede from his upward trend ward a being with intent love for humanity, and a moral fiber that was calculated to keep him a slave. From this life, black as moral turpitude could make it, in the dismal shadow of the auction block, he emerged a superstition creature with no faith in mankind and no sense of of cooperation and confidence. "The woman of today must shoulder the burden of rooting out these and other undesirable traits and begin such training as will refine and equip his talents to the maximum efficiency. "The hearts of black mothers swelt with the same hopes and desires and with the same aspirations as do the hearts of women of the other race. To those who occur in the lives of that, aside from educating her own children she has contributed to the education of others. To those who say she cannot set a living example of moral family life. I point to the fact that there are thousands of black mothers wives, sisters and daughters living honest "The future of the race depends on the power of its women and the heights to which they can climb. Our successes will be based upon moral standards. These are entirely n the hands of our women."

July 1.—An attack upon the "political and social vultures" who criticised Mrs. Hoover's reception of Mrs. Oscar Dreistr. wife of the colored Representative from Illinois, was a feature of the address delivered here Sunday afternoon in the Municipal Court of Hamilton Fish, Jr. of New York, before the 20th annual conference of the N.A.A.C.P. "The colored people are not seeking social equality or social recognition. They have a pride in their own race and prefer their own company and association. strange as it may seem, to some of the professional political, social vultures, who are always seeking an opportunity to pounce upon some item for political advantage and with witty cries to reread the skies with their eyes, twelve million law-a-b-i-d-i-n-g colored American citizens for daring to hold their heads up and seek their rights under the law. "The whole Negro problem may be summed up in the words, justice, more justice, and still more justice. The social equality issue is just a camouflage raised by the crackers of the South: The fight of twelve million Negroes in the United States will go on steadily and without fear or favor until they have won all their civil rights: the right to earn a living, to their children to own property and to the protection of the guarantee of the Federal Constitution for their property and lives." 1118 DRUID HILL AVENUE SLAVERY DEGRADED day Live Honest Lives. the undesirable traits fostered by slavery and the results of slave life.

Negro Is Part of Nation, Says Rosenwald Fund President Race Should Insist on Obligations as Well as on Its Fundamental Rights. CLEVELAND.-The American Negro has progressed to the point where he is recognized as an integral part of the nation with all the duties and responsibilities of other groups in the population, declared Edwin R. Embree, president of the Julius Rosenwald Fund, in an address Thursday night before the N.A.A.C.P. anniversary conference here. "Today over one-fifth of the Negroes in America live above the old Mason and Dixon line and one-third live in cities or town. Thus the Negro is distributed throughout the nation, and is no longer exclusively resident of the rural South. N.A.A.C.P. Has Changed Sentiment, Says Pickens CLEVELAND.-The work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has changed public sentiment in the United States in the field of race relations. "A recent Government survey reports that the accumulated wealth Negro in America is $20,000,000,000 two dollars in dollars ($20,000,000,000 that 700,000 Negroes own their own homes, 232,000 own farms and 70-000 own or operate business enterprises; that there are 73 Negro banks with a capitalization of $8-000 and an annual business over $100,000,000; that there are 48,000 Negro teachers, over 1000 of them giving instruction in institutions of higher learning." Mr. Embree referred to four "great Negro university centers" of today: Washington, with Howard University under the leadership of a Negro president, Mordecal W. Johnson, Nashville, where Mordecal Plant immediately adjoining an new hospital and laboratory planted immediately adjoining a revived and re-organized Fisk University"; Atlanta, "where a group of colleges of distinguished history are forming a confederation under the historic title of Atlanta University, including the strong undergraduate colleges of Morehouse and New York University, denominational colleges and a hospital are merging their resources. New Attitude in America The general attitude toward the Negro in America has changed fundamentally, continued Mr. Embree, who continued: "In spite of individual distress and still prevalent prejudice, the Negro, to a degree unbelievable half a century ago, is recognized as a member of the nation, as a part of the American stream of life, not something detached and aside from it. And the Negro and his friends, while still insisting upon fundamental rights, should shift their focus to world affairs." In this connection, Mr. Embree stated that Negroes had raised over $4,000,000 toward Rosenwald schools in the South. Hard Work "The opportunity is presented," said Mr. Embree. "now for the first time in the history of the nation, for the Negro to assume his place as a life-guard in the army. To hold and justify that place the Negro must work hard. While continuing to fight for his rights, he must accept the duties and obligations of American life; Negro must be as much a guardian as minimum the whole race is literate, clean, orderly and dependable." N.A.A.C.P. Has Changed Sentiment, Says Pickens CLEVELAND—The work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has changed public sentiment in the United States in the field of racial relations, declared William Pickens, the field secretary, speaking Thursday before the annual conference there. "The influence of the association on public opinion, or public sentiment, has been its most far reaching contribution to the forward struggle of the American Negro. It has now even become respectable to belong to the association afterward everywhere outside of Mississippi and a few other places like that.

Council Affirms Right to Asse DENVER, Colo. — Sixteen bishops of the A.M.E. church met in semi-annual bishop's council here last week, and made important recommendations. The bishops recommended that the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society, Mrs. L. M. Hughes, president, and the Parent Mite Missionary Society, Mrs. Mary F. Handy, President, unite. The former comprehends for the most part the southern states and the latter, the North. Because of the interlapping the council recommended that plans be mapped out for a single body with representatives from all sections of the country on the official staff. The reason for the separation of the societies, it is said, lay originally in the council of bishops. Now that it is unanimous for a union, it is believed that the merger will speedily result. Commission in Colleges The council also appointed a strong commission, headed by Bishop W. A. Fountain, on reduction of church schools through combination of those in close proximity. The commission, which includes in its membership John R. Hawkins, financial secretary, and A. S. Jackson, secretary of education, will hold its first session in Washington. D.C., July.

WASHINGTON—In commen- ration of his 100th birthday, the State of Maine has authorized a $50,000 appropriation with which to erect an equestrian figure in honor of General Oliver Otis Hawke, Commander of the Third Regiment and Founder of Howard University, it has been announced.

I complained a lot, ideal for help, but not help it. "My husband advised me to try Cardui, which I did. I took two bottles at this time, and soon I was well and strong. I seemed to be better, better at cupping it and my back, cupping it." "Once since, when I felt I needed a tonic, I took two bottles of Cardui. Again I felt much stronger.

PLANS TO MUZZLE BLEASE AND HEFLIN PLANS TO MUZZLE BLEASE AND HEFLIN Senator Bingham to Introduce Amendment Protecting Citizens. LIBEL UNCHECKED der Present Immunity Law. WASHINGTON, (C.N.S.) — A resolution which would effectively muzzle inflammatory statements made by such Senators as Cole Blease and "Tom" Heflin in Congress has been introduced by Senator Bingham, (Rep. Conn). "The bill would amend the constitution by disallowing immunity to senators and representatives from the arena in speeches and debates on the floor of Congress and in committee. "It is entirely possible at the present time to attack in the open any representatives under the shield of immunity," said the Senator. "Our forefathers, the framers of the Constitution, never intended that this should punish which would result from any criticism of the King and his ministers, and it was their idea to insure free debate upon such subjects as arbitrary officials' conduct by tyrannical conduct of government." "It is my intention to preserve the spirit which prompted them to grant immunity to senators and representatives in my proposed amendment which would allow full immunity to members who desire to criticize or comment upon actions of any offence of the government from the President down. Realigious Leaders In my opinion no immunity should be permitted when the leaders of religious denominations or faiths of whatever character are involved, for this reason our Constitution, any more than they intended that open attacks upon private citizens, or upon the members of any race, should be made under the cloak of congressional immunity. "Charges made against any private citizen," he continued. "no matter what church, race or society he represents, ought to be made with all due regard to the consequences which the government must deal with the criminal libel and defamation of character. "I can see no reason why a Senator or Congressman should be persecuted by the consequences of high or low standing without being made liable for whatever statements he may make," said Senator Bingham. "I must say the Blesses and Helfas be made to either "shut up," or "put out." Four Killed. 6 Hurt in D. C. Accidents WASHINGTON.

Committeeman WASHINGTON, (C N S)—Considerable excitement, it was learned here this week attended the patronage probe which is being conducted in San Antonio by Senator Smith W. Brookhart of Iowa and Senator Kenneth D. McKellar, of Tennessee when representative John N. Garner, Democratic leader of the House of representatives was named in quorum to conduct democratic machine in Hidalgo county, Texas. The bomb was thrown when Orville Bullington asked Mrs. H. O Schaleber, a witness before the committee whether or not Garner was aligned with the Hidalgo combina- McKellar Excited Senator McKellar at once got excited and interrupted before Mrs. Schaleber could reply. Just why the Democratic Senator objected to this question, but after two witnesses had testified Bullington apologized for the Garner question, but handed the Senator this apology. "We did not want to intimate that he is crooked any more than other good men," he said. Creager told the Senate committee that he was asking for his request. "Garner has been a close friend of mine for twenty years," he said. Hidalgo county conditions occupied the position of a session of the committee of which Senator Smith W. Brookhart, Republican, Iowa. One witness, however, testified as to Cameron County. Creager told the Senate committee, too, Santon, who said he attempted to build an international bridge across the Rio Grande at Brownsville, offering to turn it over to the city. He told had said for the construction. "We figure it would not net the city $25,000 a year," he said. "Creager," he said, got the bridge franchise.

We are in a terribly big hurry about developing the social life of our children before we are concerned about producing in them the requisite fitness to sustain honorably and acceptably the functions which necessarily will devolve upon them, in after life. J. M. Macy The Hoover tea party at the White House is still such a recent happening that comments upon it figure in the news of the week. Just as the legislatures in Georgia, Mississippi, Florida and Texas, in keeping with Southern custom of meeting with summer—instead of the winter—with their legislative cousins southern states—hasasted to condemn the affair as an "exhibition of social equality," most of those who have rushed into public print have been the violent anti-Negrophiles E. L. Shuford, of Hickory, of Hickory, who said: "Mr. Hoover, of the world over but he would have to live in Dixie a time to know that if he would undertake to carry out his White House custom 'that a white man is no better than a Negro,' a race war would result and blood would flow to maintain the white man's government." In the weller of this several display of race insanity and the three courageous utterances like a sore thumb. ances stuck the Representiative Mary T. Norton, white (Dcm., N. J.) said: "When the people of Illinois elected a Negro they expected him to be shown the consideration due a member of Congress. "Mrs. Hoover did not elect him. She merely represents her husband in extending courtesy to congress regardless of color, race, religion or politics, and should not be compromised by anyone for doing so, which she considered and which any other fair minded mistress of the White House would have considered proper. "Mrs. BrEpriest is not responsible for for the color of her skin. God gave her that." Representative Hamilton Fish, J. Jr., white (Rep. N. Y.) referred to the Hoover critics as "social and political vultures." "crackers" who raise the social equality issue as a camouflage to halt the advance of the Negro toward securing his city position. Brown William M. Brown, white, of Arkansas, unrocked by the Protestant Episcopal church for heresy wrote: "If the Christian churches had been in the slightest degree interested in the teachings of Jesus as they are set down in the New Testament, their memoirs could not possibly make one race in situations and encourage one race in stupidly trying to keep another race in subjection, to satisfy its own sense of race superiority." Bishop Brown points out that he was savage enough, while bishop of Arkansas, to draw such race distinctions, and regarded everyone not white as his inferior. "It took Kari Marx, an atheist, he said, 'to bring me into a knowl- edge of Christ.' Perhaps there is something superior and ultra specialized in the policy of silence, but after two terms of Mr. Calvin Coolidge's taciturnity, we would much prefer a White House willing to speak out on the issues of the day—whatever they be. The chatter and twaddle of the Discie legislatures would stop tomorrow if Mr. Howard had the courage to say, 'As long as Mrs. Hoover and I am the White House, the policy of entertaining Congressmen and their wives will not be altered.' Explaining Lincoln's Scandal The country was very properly shocked recently when this newspaper exposed a questionnaire which was circulated at Lincoln (Pa.) university, in which upper-classmen voted against the employment of Negroes on the faculty. Lincoln alumni avoided the issue at their recent annual meeting, but succeeded in securing the cession of a second Negro member on the board of trustees. Their strategy, to secure by trustee action what the upper-classmen oppose, is apparent. Summarize such as that expressed by Lincoln congregations students is not of mushroom growth. Back of it are numberless incidents calculated to unsettle the youthful mind and weaken its confidence in itself. For example, consider two Episcopal churches in Baltimore: St. Mary's Episcopal Katherine's, which possess the country of activity and large memberships, are still missions of Mt. Calvary (white). Both have imposing edifices, fashionable congregations, and WHITE PRIESTS. Of course congregations like these are apathetic and inactive because of their leadership. They also provide their own members with no opportunity for self-expression through Negro Two weeks ago the Rev. Tolli Caution was ordained a priest by the Rt. Rev. Gardiner Murray, primate of the Protestant Episcopal church. Rev. Mr. Caution is a full-fledged priest, holds a master of arts degree from the University of Pennsylvania, and a bachelor of theology degree from a reputable Episcopal seminary, but to him the doors of St. Mary's and St. Katherine's are open. Fifty years of worship in these two churches have遗产 culture and education sufficient in those congregations to bring forth a Negro priest and a rector. The priests in charge, probably very estimable gentlemen, are unknown outside of their immediate congregations. On the other hand, the Rev. George F. Bragg, rector of St. James, of the same denomination, has been martyred in his youth. In this city he is loved and respected as the dean of active pastors. Thirty-eight years he has served his parish and thirteen black boys have been sent by him into the Episcopal priesthood. Exposed to view, the public has no difficulty in choosing between independence, pride, self-respect on one hand and pseudo-superiority in respect to dignity, and affected culture on the other. Multiply the instances of St. Katherine's and St. Mary's and no other explanation of, or excuse for, the Lincoln university scandal is necessary. Rights vs. Obligations Rights vs. Obligations "Negroes must struggle without rest until, as a minimum, the whole race is literate, clean, orderly and dependable," said well-meaning Edwin R. Embree white, president of the Julius Rosenberg Fund in an address in Cleveland last Thursday. "While continuing to fight for their rights, they must accept the duties and obligation of American life," he added. Due to the wisdom and generosity of Mr. Rosenwald, a half million colored children in decent schools in the region is now turning attention to the improvement through aid to the hospitals. of Negroism. Thus while philanthropy has been active in promoting Negro education and health, it has been unable—except indirectly—to attack the political and economic forces which prevent people from becoming more orderly and道德able. dependance. No need philanthropy in America is interested in securing a ballot for the enlightened Negroes of the South, in seeing that the segregated ghetto system is wiped out, or in abolishing the prejudice which closes to them skilled employment in public work and private corporations. As Miss Nannie Burroughs succinctly puts it: "America's greatest social welfare game is to shut the door of opportunity and then open the purse of benevolent charity to the Negro race." Talking orderliness of dependability or even education and health to a man who is hungry, jobless and a national cast-off, is like sowing barren ground.

N.A.A.C.P. Quota Whether or not Baltimore has paid its quota in the campaign to raise $200,000 for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the fund will be raised. The Association has made its place in the life of the nation, and a review of its twenty years of work convinces every thinking person that we could not have gotten along without. The only thing for the Baltimore branch to do is to re-form battle lines for another assignment with quota. Incidently, it is interesting to note that an investment of less than $3,000 in legal fees is sufficient to wipe out six illegal discriminations now practiced in this state. They are as follows: For $500, attorneys can be secured to prove unconstitutional the Maryland law fixing a lower minimum salary for colored than for white teachers in county schools. For a similar amount, $500, city discrimination against employment, NEGros as policemen and firemen, can be successfully combated. For lawyers' fees, Baltimore county school commissioners can be compelled to provide a high school for colored children. For $500, attorneys can be secured to prove unconstitutional the Maryland law fixing a lower minimum salary for colored than for white teachers in county schools. For a similar amount, $500, city discrimination against employment of Negroes as policemen and firemen can be compulsory included. For $500, commissioners can be compelled to provide a high school for colored children. For $1,000 in legal fees, the state can be compelled to open the doors of the University of Maryland to colored people or provide equal college, law and medical instruction in a separate university. For the United Railways auto bus lines which bar colored passengers, can be made to change their policy. For $250, the United Railways auto bus lines which bar colored passengers, can be made to change their policy. For $250, lawyers can be employed to attack successfully the illegal Jim crow seating arcangements in the criminal court, part two, and in the traffic courtroom. Failure to raise the N.A.A.C.P. quota is a reflection upon the city's leaders, and the illegal disabilities above referred to are a discredit and a reproach which Baltimore cannot permit to endure if it would hold us its head in honor.

(Signed) THE EDITOR Civil War Not Fought for Abolition of Slavery, But Slavery Was One of the Causes of the Civil War. To the Editor: I think the would be made unmistakably plain that Civil War was not waged on behalf of the abolition of slavery. It was purely, and entirely a "white man's affair." Because of the economy: disadvantage of the laboring white man, in the north and west, in competing successfully against slave labor, the Republican party was able to maintain its power by straining the encroachment of slavery upon the free states. The South was unwilling to submit to any restraint in the premises. And, following the election of Mr. Lincoln, attempted to secede from the Union, and establish an independent government. This act upon their part was styled "rebellion," by the President, and the war followed, not to free slaves, but simply to put down the "rebellion." It was a difficult situation, and the Union was in danger of being "licked out" by the President, the Phils and Hunter, with far-reaching vision, even against the orders of Mr. Lincoln, endeavored to procure the enlistment of colored men.

BRAGG, Jr. Hopes Mrs. Hoover Will Stand Her Ground As Did the Late Theodore Roosevelt. To the Editor: Twenty-six years ago the late President Theodore Roosevelt invited the late Dr. Booker T. Washington to the White House for the purpure women and women to Federal positions in Dixie. One of the occasions for this dinner, Mr. Washington told the writer, was to discuss the appointment of Mrs. Minnie Cox to be post mastress of Mississippi had served notice of Mississippi had served notice on Mr. Roosevelt that they would refuse to accept mail if Mrs. Cox was appointed. The late Colonel told them that if they refused to accept the mail he would feel it his duty to close the postoffice at the refuse, and Col. Roosevelt closed the postoffice. The South not only heaped criticism upon Mr. Roosevelt, some of which was expressed in poems too tile and vulgar to put into print, but every southern and perpetuate more jynchings. But instead of apologizing for dining with the great Booker T. Washington, the Colonel made it plain to such men as Sen. Tillman and McLaurin, who were among his critics that he recounted he honored as well as doing it in dining with Booker T. Not only this, but he let the South know that he was President and that no senator or representative from Dixie county had been honored as well as doing it. Let us hope that as President Roosevelt stood his ground, Mrs. Hoover, the First Lady of the Land, will stand her. Baltimore, Md. Harmful to Virginia Seminary. To the Editor: An article on the front page of your last edition of your paper, supposed to come from Lynchburg, is very harmful to Virginia Theological Seminary and College. Will you kindly publish the following: Virginia Theological Seminary and College has a good year. Number students last school year, 271; number of graduates who received diplomas in twenty years. The seminary has had two presidents raised last school year. W. R. ASHBURN, The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, July 6, 1929 THE LUNCHEON AT THE WHITE HOUSE The luncheon at the White House Proved more than a social faction; It started destructive critics writing, And aroused a senator to action. The poem composed by that senator Will bring him recognition. He knows the dope to feed the south, For a senatorial position. But why should he get jealous Of Mrs. DePriest's social rank? Illinois sent her husband there— He's a Congressman. That's frank! So now he should not have to worry About an issue for 32. The luncheon at the White House Has taught him what to do. —I. C. YOUNG.

The AFRO Thinks Mr. DePriest is Doing a Good Job and Will Keep on Doing it, Despite Criticism or Praise. In reading your paper. I find the criticism against Mr. Priest, very great. I think if we would devote our time in trying to send more men to the house, we would do a great honor both to Mr. Priest and to Mr. DePriest needs help, whether he sits in the house, or makes public speeches. The odds are too strong. Mr. DePriest can't pass our bills alone, and I am sure he will do his best, for his people. So instead of criticism, why not give him praise. GEORGE EDW. FITZSIMMONS, Harrisburg, Pa. Two DePriest Mistakes. To the Editor: No matter how many public speeches Oscar DePriest makes, he has made two glaring errors in his first three months in Congress. He was absent from the Amendment Amendment. This was unapprehable. He objected to a bill which provided for a white school on one of the Indian reservations, but withdrew it when assured there are no new ones now. But Negroes may live next week or next year and they'll be barred from attending a government school because Mr. DePriest didn't think quite enough. If the school were for non-Indian, the bill could have said so and still not used the word white. [Dr. A. B.

To the Editor: Concerning Virginia Theological Seminary and College, the article which appeared on the front page of the 22, 1929 contained some incorrect statements. The first statement in the C.I.A.A. While it is true that Virginia Theological Seminary and College are a very grave financial crisis during the past nine months, this has absolutely nothing to go with its connection in the C.I.A.A.A.

Concerning Virginia Theological Seminary and College, the article which appeared on the front page of the APRO-AMERICAN, dated June 22, 1929, contained some incorrect statements. The first statement has to do with the school's relationship in the C.I.A.A. While it is true that Virginia Theological Seminary and College is unfortunately involved in debt and has doubtlessly undergone a very grave financial crisis during the past nine months, this has absolutely nothing to do with its connection in the C.I.A.A. All athletic activities in connection with the school are handled by the Athletic Association and are in no way included in the debt of the school. In the second paragraph it was stated that presidents have been changed several times in the last several years. The school having been incorporated since 1888, it is quite true that there have been several changes in its presidency; but certainly not several times in the past three years. It was further stated that there were only 76 students enrolled for the past school year. Virginia Seminary closed its term, 1928-29 with an enrollment of 277 students, having a graduating class of 54 and 25 faculty members.

Next Spingarn Medal Already Belongs to Oscar Deprest. This Reader Thinks. The Spingarn Medal for next year already belongs to Oscar DePriest, in my opinion. It is a tonic of no mean virtue, which the honorable representative, his secretary, and his wife, have infected with the serious issues in the brief while they have been with us. So many of us who live and train under the regime of the Bourbons and bigots of the South with their segregation and racial integrity weapons, easily take on an inferior complex fitted with the inferiority ailment, show it by ready resentment to fancied insults or they stop over with graciousness. Though he depreciates the attempt to place upon him the role of political race champion nevertheless, he has done the part eminently. Mrs. DePriest at the White House, in Congressional galleries, or in other capacities, has done well for herself and us. Morris Lewis, whom I have known for years, a leading N.A.A.C. writer in Chicago, through his bills as engraver as if to the manner born, cleverly making history for us. The Spinning Garmad for next year already belongs to Oscar Drepriest, in my opinion. It is a tonic of no mean virtue, which the honorable representative, his secretary, and his wife, have invented. The Spinning Garmad is one of these border states in the brief which they have with us. So many of us who live and train under the regime of the Bourbons and bigots of the South with their segregation and racial integrity weapons, easily take on an inferior comrade, and they are inflicted with the inferiority aliment, show it by ready resentment to fancied insults or they stop over with graciousness. Though he depreciates the attempt to place upon him the role of political race champion, nevertheless, he has been a part eminently, Mrs Drepriest at the White House, in Congressional galleries, or in other capacities, has done well for herself and us. Morris Lewis, whom I have known for years, a leading N.A.A.C. worker in Chicago, moves through the manner, and he is the manner, the manner, clearly making history for us. Some Negroes are big among Negroes. They fight readily, as "Nev" Thomas would say, when the cause is for little or nothing—and the opponent is another Negro who is trying to do something construal. DePriest is carrying the battle where it counts. E. B. HENDERSON Washington D.C. Lincoln Alumnus Embarrassed By Answering Questions and Apologizing for His Alma Mater. To the Editor: Within the past month I have been continually explain the Lincoln University questionnaire to men and women who are very much concerned with its import. I have 'een embarrassed and ashamed of the necessity for such, but without exceptions they have all been fair and most honest in their explanations of circumstances and environment of a University for Negro students, where a vote against Negroes on the faculty can be rendered by a majority of the upper classmen. We have Lincoln who spoke so glibly about what educators are a fair representation of what a loosely organized and inactive Alumni Association can do. A few have spent so much time bellowing for trustees that they have totally forgotten Lincoln men below Washington, D.C., beyond Chicago, or away from New York and Boston. Within the past month I have been continually explaining the Lincoln University questionnaire to men and women who are very much concerned with its import. I have seen ombrassured and confused students, and exceptions they have all been fair and most honest questions. Merely a desire to know about the circumstances and environment of a University for Negro students, where a vote against Negroes on the faculty can be rendered by a majority of the students. The students at Lincoln who spoke so gilly about our educators are a fair representation of what a loosely organized and inactive Alumni Association can do. A few have spent so much time bellowing for trustees that they have totally forgotten Lincoln men below Washington, D.C., Chicago, or away from New York and New Jersey. What we need is a tie up of Lincoln graduates all over the country, whose interest in their Alma Mater can be revived. That alone would have eliminated the need for college admissions in Lincoln questionnaires displayed. It would at least have given them more knowledge about the records of Lincoln men—especially in education—though there could be no excuse for their ignorance about Negro educators of other institutions save their indifference in reading of them. We should hope that the public will I hope the AFRO-AMERICAN of Baltimore will be kind enough to consider and air, until the public has received fair consideration. 1. That they run a little questionnaire on the matter of Negro Professors at Lincoln to be filled out by every Lincoln man possible publishing the final results when they have received a fair proportion. 2. That they investigate and discuss the present organization of our Alumni Association, with the object of finding out just how much it does for Lincoln men, and by traveling Alumni College visits, not strengthen it. Every Negro has been eliminated from the Republican machinery to make smooth the way of the coalition of the lily-whites and the Hoovercats. . . . whoso has mind to understand, let him understand. THE LILY-WHITE PLOT THICKENS By KELLY MILLER The issues of the last campaign split the solid South in twain. Republican statesmanship has for a long time striven to devise some plan whereby a strong candidate could build up in the Southern states. Finding it next to impossible to Republicanize the South it finally hit upon the expediency of Southernizing the Republican party. The primary goal of the Fifteenth Amendment, guaranteeing political equality of black and white. That principle is virtually surrendered by the declaration of the Republican for the nomination at Richmond. "Cannon to the right of them; Cannon to the left of them volleyed and thundered." The only effective bid for the support of white voters was to eliminate the Negro and African-American. This was done with a vengeance. Mr. Anderson is the mouthpiece and oracle of the Republican party of Virginia. He was twice a canvassor, and he has a high favor with President Hoover, who made him a member of his Crime Commission. In sounding the keynote of the convention, Mr. Anderson is a political and social relations between the races are not 'n' be disturbed whichever party is in power. Here is the lily-white philosopher in the history of this declaration. Mr. Venable of ancient and venerable Virginia lineage, acclaims that hereafter 'n' white man in the Old Dominion need apologizes for belonging to the Republican par- Bascom Slemp. Bassom Slemp for the past ten years has been the zo-between the political forces of the North and South. Slemp, a former Republican, made him his private secretary with a view to heading up Southern delegates at the Republican convention. Mr. Hoover used his Slemp to argue that Slemp is the statesman of the new lily-whitism. It is said that he manipulated the financial support of the Cenron, anti-Catholic groups, and Slemp is the single to annexing them to the new lily-whitish Republican party. The plan worked without a flaw. But back of Mr. Slemp stands firm. He said that Mr. Herbert Hoover, the head and front of the Republican party Eliminate Negro To any one who followed the last campaign with discernment, the plot was as slain as the fingers on the hand. The Negro must needs be balanced with the Southern white men to manage the fortunes of the Grand Old Party in the South. It is needless to restate the obvious steps taken to promote this end. I tried my best to make it was taking place during the last campaign while the happenings were under way. The Negro has been eliminated from the Democratic machine machinery to mute smooth the way of the coalition of the white-whites and the Hoovercrats. The plan has unfolded with the logical precision of a theorem in geometry. No sooner has Mr. Sleiman been elected President Virginia than does President Hoover rush into the arena with full approval and an盟誓 of his plan as the model for building up competitive party organizations in other Southern states. To understand, let him understand. Hoover Sincere I do not now. I did not during the campaign, condemn Mr. Hoover's policy. I simply analyzed and described sometimes accurate descriptions carried by the surest praise or condemnation. Mr. Hoover is unquestionably sincere in his desire to build up a competitive Republican party. He is the best thing for the Negro, as he sees it. Being a practical politician, he does not scruple at the requisite means for promoting the calculation of the electorate. Ken Davis, Walter Cohen, Bob Church, et al. must needs be sacrificed, so let it be. The offences must needs come, but we into the discarded politicians through this. This is not an unblessed description of Mr. Hoover's political philosophy. Southernizing Party. Southernizing the Republican party is deemed the only means for the ultimate political redemption of the South and of the Negro, who must drink the curse that the Southern Negro is, in a political visse with the front and rear jaws closed upon him. There is now no difference of racial attitude between the two great political attributes of geography, Hoover and Al Smith. Raskeb and Work, Bascom Slemn and Governor Byrd, Creager and Dan Moody, may easily be paired on this issue of difference between Democrat and Republican in the North. Under the lily-white program, there will be none in the South. The Negro will only one ticket as the other. The stam of approval placed by the head of the Republican party upon the subordination of the Negro in Virginia, forever obliterated the Negro in the traditional element of the divine Republicans and diabolical Democrats. Fourteenth Amendment The Virginia Negro voter can now enter the Democratic primary. He can vote for either party with a similar degree of humiliation. His only advantage is the fact that his tent with disquiet for both. Barring this, he must negotiate to defeat Mr. Hoover and his illly-white program for the next quarter. Where will he be challenged? Where will he find within the Republican party any different or more friendly attitude? The kicking back and forth of the Fourteenth Amendment in the recent apportionment issue shows precisely the direction in which the politician is trying to gain genuine supporters of the Fourteenth Amendment among the 435 members of the House of Representatives; they are the Dearest of Chicago. The others were playing politics of the cheapest variety. There is no conscience left in the Republican party to which this tent will belong from the illly-white decision of Hoover. Tea Party We hear very much within the past few weeks about a certain tea plant, *Taiwanese tea*, a little repeat, worthy of notice, is that it reveals the double acting quality of tea, out of harmony with his lily-ly Southern policy. He must have known Blease's South Carolina (Senator Cole Blease's tirade against the entertainment of Congressman Oscar DePriest's wife, by Mrs. Hoover in the White House led the AFO to inquire as to what sort of a place South Carolina is, and what kind of people would elect and tolerate an uncultured senator of the By A BALTIMORE BARBER I was principal of the public school in York, South Carolina, and I left and came North because of the bestiality and brutality of the white race. I was born in North Carolina, but I prefer barringing in Baltimore to running the colored schools of York. The following incidents—out of many that could be narrated—will indicate why: The superintendent of schools, invited to address a parents' meeting in our school, was late in reaching the hall. He apologized publicly as follows: "I didn't believe 'niggers' would start a meeting on time." Farmers run the schools and the school board. I was served with a notice to close school after five weeks and send the children home because whites wanted them to pick A colored man was shot down in my block. His body lay in the public street. It no one dared to walk. The man was white whiles showed it into a pine box and dumped it in a hole. He was a preacher and the brother of the first colored school teacher in New York. He was the one that he advised his congregation in a public meeting to save its money, buy land and become independent. Black spies and stool pigeons carried the word to the white crackers down on the brown morning. The preacher was dead. Nearly every colored girl in York of child bearing age had a child. The fathers of the boys cases white boys of the community. He was invited to Sunday morning breakfast at a home in York. When in front of the door, in front of the door. Inside I was informed that Dr. John Blank, the city's wealthiest white physician, was visiting one of the daughters of the niece. No声响, wide smile. See her regularly and spent much of his time there. We sat down to the breakfast table. Before we started, while Dr. Blank and the daughter came in, sat down at the table and ate with the rest . . . . Dr. C. W. Grandison, famous lecturer, was addressing a church in York. Word was sent to him to cut out the services because a white baby was sick in the neighborhood and quiet was wanted. Truman Shank (that's not his real name) uses a horsehair on his hired colored men if they displease him. Saturday is pay day. Olk Shank dodges an officer and moves on, leaving his house, drives rapidly to town. They follow on foot and visit one place after another until they locate him. They hang around until he is through talking or comes out of the house, and leaving his house, drives rapidly to town. Odd Fellows lodge is in session. Two men sit in hats on chewing and smoking. They take seats and no one pays any attention to them. Business goes on. I asked the "Noble Grand" who were the visitors.

MOTON Africans Say: "Africans have much in common with us as wit and wisdom expressed in their prowlers show. It is time for us of course to learn that what we are in an interior and barbaric state. In more than one sense, we Americans are less civilized and more barbaric than they." C. J. BENDER. To push a canoe through the mud is not as hard as it seems. that this simple act of official civility would enrage the Ku Klux Klan whose support he accepted and whose purpose was to kill him. He knew full will the sensitiveness of the South on all semblance of social approach between the races, and he knew that his lily-wise Southerner would be the best to shock. And yet his Quaker conscience held him to the observance of his affirmation which with his sect, has the binding power of an oath, to give him authority without regard to creed or color. We can only watch the outcome of this duel in Mr Hoover's mind between a Quaker conscience and a political expediency. Where Our Old Grads Are Today Here is the Rev.

They went to Memphis Tenn., where he had a charge and were driven out by the terrible yellow fever epidemic of that year. Last April, two hundred friends helped that couple celebrate their fifteenth wedding anniversary. Commenting on present day issues, the veteran pastor says: "I have been a prohibitionist all of my life—never chewed nor smoked, never practiced anything properly enforced it would benefit our youth and improve the world." "My advice to youth today is: Be real men and women in your own conscience, to be faithful and honest to God and man." The Rev.

If you are interested in the most vitally important thing said about colored fok last week, ponder over a statement made by Rodney H. Benson, the founder of the Department of Public Welfare of the State of Illinois. Director Brandon, who for 20 years has been executive secretary of the Loyal Order of Moose and other counties Moose-Heart for orphan children, told the Progressive Community Center of Chicago that unless there is a halt in the arrest and colored youth development in the "Windy City" the Negro would lead the crime wave ten years from now. The speaker drew his conclusion while making a presentation from considerations which exclude any idea of race influence. Any group would react the same way to the living conditions, economic status and leadership which they have experienced. "Twenty years ago," he said, "we had a German wave of population through our prisons, fifteen years ago it was Scandinavian, ten years ago it was Irish. Today the Italian is now a major threat from today all signs point to the Negro prison population oeing at its height. He says: "WHENEVER WE HAVE A LARGE NUMBER OF PRISONS AND ARRESTS IT FOLLOWS, AS SURELY AS DAY DOES NIGHT, THAT LATER DEVELOPMENTS WILL PRODUCE CRIMINALITY UNLESS STEPS ARE Taken." This will not only interest citizens in Chicago, but in Baltimore and every other city where we have a growing ratio of juvenile arrests. Already in Baltimore, for instance, with one seventh of the population, we furnish more than half of the crime. The Surprising Bench judges in Baltimore are fair, and the figures represent a genuine index to the crime situation. But back of all are certain farriers, some of which Mr. Brandon points out for oursure "Poverty and vicious living conditions," he said, "do more to manufacture criminals and to promote misery and happiness than any other cause." Gordon Hancock, Virginia Union University professor, speaking in his lecture of thought to this problem when he declared that UNLESS WE INCREASE THE RELATIVE MEANS WILL HAVE TO LOWER THE RELATIVE EXPENDITURES AND ADOPT A LESS PRETENTIOUS MANNER OF LIVING AS A BACE OF OWNERSHIP. Whatatever you say or do, you can't separate this problem of racial crime from the general problems growing out of racial discrimination and business interests which bar colored fathers from jobs because they are colored, in effect send their colored children in the same proportion. The big public utilities, like the Consolidated Gas and Electric Commands and the United Nations, are the most important institutions, which bar colored men and women from jobs other than those of the lowest paid laborers, just as truly consign a larger proportion of their children to these jobs designed to make criminals of them.

What we can do to counter this disadvantage which the masses of race babies face from the problem before us. While trying to cure the disease at its root we can also go along with our welfare work and throw around all the much protection as means will allow.

Little Stories of Real Life She is just twenty-three and one of the modern girls. She has already learned to take an occasional trip to the gym, not really enjoy it but which she believes is "smart" and in keeping with the times. In her social life, she has had some thrills; she has waved her furry hood over her shoulder in military football victory; she has had bids to the prom and bubbled with youthful exuberance when she whizzed through country roads in a mumbo jumbo. Night she has awakened in fiftieth sadness as some Prince Charming knocked at the door of her heart. Most of all she has rejoiced in the success of her independence of womankind. They no longer are clinging wives. They can make their own way in the world. More than that, they can establish a 50-50 basis of relationship at the gym, and their fencers at the ideals that grandmother had. But something else is happening in the young thing's life. Every day she learns the romantic horizon of her girlfriend days receding and it takes a little more powder and rouce, a little more feminine charm to meet the connection she sees a gradual diminution of her bids and her modern freedom has brought with it a keener rivalry, so much better she has recording to more efforts to attract the male of the species—more conscious effort, at least. She learns to laugh outside while she is sitting with her grits her teeth and smothers her pride often, wondering, after all whether the modern girl is harboring chains of freedom or forging rivets of slavery.

CHAUFFEUR IS FINED $25 FOR HIS ELOPEMENT Youth W. Fled With White Wife Georgia Veteran, Is Again Free. WOULDNT TESTIFY Alice Kneece Refused to Give Testimony Against Alec. PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Alexander Ellis, youthful chauffeur with whom the pretty white wife of an Augusta, Ga., man, eloped to Philadelphia several weeks ago, was convicted in the criminal division of the Municipal Court and fined $25 and costs on a minor statutory charge last week. Ellis had also been indicted by the grand jury on a charge of pandering and violating the Mann Act, but judge Walsh vaulted to permit Assistant Attorney Abraham Berkoski to try Ellis on this count on the grounds that it was a federal offense. As no charge had been made in the federal court, Ellis was discharged his attorney, Robert Nix, and paid his fine. Refused To Testify Mary Mrs Alice Kneece, who eloped with Alec was produced by the commonwealth to testify against Alec but used after Judge Walsh told her that anything she said might be faced against, her. Alice declared that she loved her mother more than life itself and would do anything to keep her mother-in-law from seizing her property, she said her mother-in-law would treat the child cruelly and negate it as she had dore her. She also negated that under no circumstances would she go back to her mother-in-law as a war veteran present confined to Linwood Government Hospital, a victim of insanity. The child was temporarily awarded to the Welfare Bureau by Judge Gorman, or not this is the last chapter in the sensational elopement of the young white Georgia wife, who left her soldier husband in a Chevrolet livestock, lived with her chauffer and handy man as wife until taken into custody by authorities, could not be learned. Working as maid in a Philadelphia family and Ellis is for the present free. Some time so she said that she would do anything for the sake of her baby, she will take this woman's welfare workers and live the past, or whether she will marry Alice it yet is to be seen. ST.

HOLD DOCTORS WHEN WHITE WOMAN DIES Operation. FACE MURDER CHARGE CHICAGO, (A.N.P.) — Professional circles were rocked here Wednesday morning when Dr. Anna B. Schultze and Dr. James R. White were arrested charged with performing an illegal operation on Mrs. Winifred Garver, a 19-year-old white married woman, who died Thursday. According to the statement made to the police by the white woman, several days ago she went to Dr. Schultze and requested her to perform the operation. Dr. Schultze informed her that the operation would have to be done under anesthetic and that she would have to call in another physician to administer it so she would have to perform the operation the following day. In keeping with instructions, she appeared at the office of Dr. Schultze, at 3430 Calumet Avenue, and Dr. Schultze performed the operation while Dr. White served as the anesthetist. The statement of the woman was corroborated by Hazel Anderson, another white woman, who witnessed the operation and pointed out the inquest which was held Thursday afternoon, the aunt of the dead woman declared that she had sent her niece to Dr. Schultze when she persisted in having the operation pointing out that she had been recommended to her by a friend. Denies Accusation Despite the statements of the dead woman and her friend and the identification, Dr. Schultze maintained that she had not performed an operation of any kind, delaring that she had not done that had desired". She admitted that the white woman had come to her and asked to be examined and that she advised her that the examination would have to be made under anesthetic. The woman returned the follow-up day and the examination was made. Dr. White Silent Dr. White, who is one of the most prominent physicians and surgeons in the country, was Major of the medical detachment of the Eighth Illinois Infantry Regiment has remained silent upon the advice of the governor, following the first arrest. Dr. Schultze and Dr. White were released on bonds of $5,000 each, but when the governor ordered him to be held to the grand jury charged with murder. Dr. Schultze's bond was raised to $10,000, but the governor ordered him to $5,000. Neither physician testified at the inquest. "MAN WHO LAUGHS" TOPS REGENT BILL Conrad Veidt and Mary Phibbin Play in Hugo Drama, First Half of Week. John Gilbert Stars in Passionate Romance. A gruesome tale, which blends the terrible with the sublime, the monstrous with the magnificent, is Victor Hugo's "The Man Who Laughs," the photoplay starring Mary Phelan and Grand Central that comes to the Regent for the first three days of next week. It is the story of England in the eighteenth century, when England was overrun with compraciones—gypies — who bought, sold and disfigured children. He captures Gwynplaine, heir to a pheasant, and so distort his face that he appears ever laughing, his smile grieves and leering. He becomes the most famous of clowns, and the most famous of doofers. Diah whom he has befriended since childhood. Machinations of the court bring him to his rightful heritage, and Queen Anne commands that he harrys her possessions, who has married his heritage. How he defies the Queen and goes through terrible adventures to be reunited with the blind girl, make a stirring conclusion to this historical masterpiece. In the last half of the week the Regent presents John Gibbart and Mary Nolan in "Desert Nights," a swift and exotic romance. Gibbart portrays the heroine who takes on the job who makes him prisoner and set out to cross the desert. The party becomes lost and as he is the only one who knows the desert he is freed in order to lead them to safety, and exacts the danger of a frightful revenge. A dynamic love theme runs through the plot. 425 MINISTERS AT HAMPTON MEETING Fifteen Denominations from HAMPTON INST.-With 425 ministers from 18 states and representing 15 denominations in attendance, the annual foray session of the Church of Jesus Christ closed the largest session in its history here last week.

SPIRITUALS PRAISED Songs and Lyrics, However, Bring Different Reactions. NEW YORK. (Special) —"Bomboola," the Irving Cooper musical comedy, opened at the Royale theatre, here, last Wednesday night, drawing conflicting comments from the reviewers in the metropolitan area. "BOMBOOLA," an all-Negro musical comedy, opened at Frank Marcus and Bernard Maltin: book written and staged by Frank Marcus; directed by staged by Frank Marcus; directed by Irving Cooper in Chaims' Royal theatre.

Dume, Jr. of The World, says: "The plot concerns a rather uneven-tempered girl from the South whose ambitions toward stage success drag her North to Harlem, where her name is to blossom forth in lights. In a somewhat hapazard situation, and she is starred in what is called the 'Bombola,' which revolve, placed on the stage of the Royale, permits the members of the cast to display their various special abilities, mosaic clothing, and old-fashioned dress from the South. "The leading role was intrusted to Isabell Washington, the lady who performed a similar role in the old moderately well with it in spite of a cold in the head or perhaps a slight attack of adenoids, which prevented her from making the most of her songs or performances, while were at fault. They were, in all truth, nothing to brag about, and the lyrics, rhyming such distant cousins as 'pain' and 'shame', were my new hat in the air. Praises Jubilee Slnging "One scene, laid in a Harlem dancing joint, showed most of the cast either dancing or gambling, when in came the dancers, and they ended they were taking part in a religious revival meeting. Sitting and standing by turns and by unison they suddenly began to sing a deep voiced spiritual with telling e "This number by far the best in the show, gave the clue to what made Mr. Cooper's new effort the most recent times to Broadway. In the few minutes when they were singing that spiritual, the members of the cast were singing their natural selves. The rest of the time they were triving hard to play a white man's musical comedy, and a not very good one." Says Show Is Clean More prominly in his appraisal of the joke was Louis Sobel, the graphic who said: "Irving Cooper's show manages to deliver without a suspicion of outlaws. The show may be clean and still entertain. There is a hint of a story to start it off, but before the first act the comedians are really matter. What does matter is that the comedy is wholesome and funny, the comedians are natural, and the good voice, and the melodies tuneful. There are only a few skills—but they're good. The best of the lot is Harlem, a travesty on the play that ran successfully this season. "Among the particularly fetching song numbers are: 'Dixie Varebock and 'Somebob' by U.S. author and Bernard Malin. 'You will make no mistake in listin' bomboo' among the shows you see this week. 'Vacation—cr when you return.' I should be with us for her a spell." Audience Liked Show Stating that "a large audience seemed to like the show very much," Bide Dudley, of the Evening World, said, "In 'Bomboola,' Broadway has another of those set up and go all-Negro music revues. If you like it on Broadway and like it a lot. It has the usual quota of fast steppers, several people who can sing and three comedians who are also adept at entertaining and also adequately enriched with acceptable scenery and flash costumes. All in all, it is well worth your while if the type of entertainment intrigues you." Isabell Washington, seen here earlier in the year in a dramatic role, was the only one in the nineteenth part and she carries on with both ape and a voice above the average. A new dancer known as Derby filled into this matter of taming the toes and Cecil Mack's Southland Sincers and the Swanne Four, a male quartet, offer some good melody. Plot Is Panned *Burns Mante, in the Daily News.* "Its youthful ink, twister们 are pomaded as to hair, broadly teethy its comedians are more successful than many and its sonas are melodiously reminiscent as four out of musical shows, white and black. "It is only when *Bombo-boil* goes into its plot that it becomes soggy. It is not what it is, what there is much too much." Miss Washington-Praised The Times tells us.

Big Bank Roll And so, if you have *vee*, be to this town of bright lights, bright girls and bright cracks, you might be wondering what to do. The best way to see all the sights, and to let all the sights see you, is to bring with you a dubby substantial bedroom that attaches your room to who has the town for quite a few years, a has finally spent his last cent. Do not under any circumstances, engage a native in your bedroom, let about this spacious place than you do. And be certain that you find a person who is low in money for if you are spending all the money then money will be no object with you. There are various places you might be taken. But you are certain to eventually drip in a cabaret, or usually referred to as night clubs. These are places where you sit at a table, eat something, drink a bit—anyway you have—and then call the food is often called, but occasionally it is—anything—even pig fodder. The drinks served are more or less soft, but you are supposed to carry a wiggle water with you, with your wiggle water carelessly happy, you find that maybe you are dancing, if you are a highbrow. If not, doing the beating of a Hop or On. Then you are supposed to be having a good time. Of course, don't let the folks back home hear of your going to the night club or you will have the hand of all you are going to night club meeting. After enduring the munishments of the cabarits until around 3 a.m., you sit the rest of the light in some speakeasy and listen to voices in by-passed by performers. Various performers from the various shows will perhaps drib in and you wonder how they get away with it. You can buy more jolly juice at the speakeasy, and there you sit and skip, and stare until the sun sets. Now then, if you are wise, you will stop at a pharmacy (drug store to you) which will be open by this time, and get a bromo selter.

Body and News Reel De Luxe) Attraction— Girl, Once Pampered by White Lover, Lost All Colorful Career of Pretty Amanda Scrugga Is a Tragic Epic of the "Social Equality" Structure of the Old South. BY PALESTINE WELLS MEMPHUS, TENN—Was it the "call of the blood," or was it just plain retribution and fate, which caused once pretty Amanda Scruggs to "cheat" on her wealthy white love, and thus forfeit a life of luxury in one of the most beautiful and pretentious city of many unusual interracial romances, they will show you the beautiful home on Walker avenue, in a stone's throw of LeMoyne where she was born, a mother and young sister lived like heirates. Today they say, she is somewhere in Arkansas. Little Rock, perhaps, and hints of dope and a struggle to keep the record where race citizens have protected against the showing of the southern comm etaion shrod etaion instances coming from the city, who for a number of years made her the queen of the Walker avenue home. Race Movie Fans Object to "Uncle Tom's Cabin" GARY IND—Whir race patrons objected to the slavery scenes in the film, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," Nick Bikos, white, owner and operator of the Roosevelt Theatre, a mixed house here, withdrew it after the picture had run but the day of its record for dear run. Local citizens protested against the scenes depicting slavery in the south in its most brutal form, and the selling of slaves from the aucuco record where race citizens have protected against the showing of the southern comm etaion shrod etaion instances coming from the city, who for a number of years made her the queen of the Walker avenue home. Amanda was 15 when she went to learn how to "dip" candy at the Dinshtin store then on "a dance street," where she taught herself to dance, girls, manifested an interest in her work which soon came to be noticed. Her rapid promotion became the entrant when the white girls in the establishment. And then came the old, old story. A white man's heart went leaping across the color line, and Amanda faceted the most serious problem of her life. Young, innocent, the girl listened to the hackneed story of a loveless girl who was so sick that this great love for her which he told her he wanted to be as near right and good as a clandestine love could Defy Convention She was to be his little girl sweetheart, and they were to create a love story, and she would be defied convention, race or religion. Hesitatingly, but with a fluttering young and trustful heart, Amanda told her mother. No one knows what took place in that mother's heart and cottage, and later in the pretentious, brick, stone and stucco house which became a show place in the 1920s and 1930s fashioned colored neighborhood. There were protests; Women's organizations resolved, and friends of LeMoyne kicked; but Amanda, for money to this and that worthy money to this and that worthy cause, and soon gossip died. Bolder Visits At first the women were made without knowledge of any in the home save Amanda and the mother; but they soon became bolder. The Scruggs home became the talk of the town, and the place to LeMoyne pointed to the place and piggily exclaimed, "that's the place where Amanda Scruggs lives. Gee, they say she has fresh strawberries in spring chicken every day in the year. Under the porch driveway could be seen standing one of the Scruggs cars and the Injuries' flower garden and the Jurassic flower while a spacious back furrow lined fawn. And while respectable Memphis drew the social curtain between them and opulent Miss Amanda, 11 sisters of the gospel and those representing this and that good cause saw no real donations she made and a sizable number of friends went into and out of the beautiful Scruggs home. The Way of Fate But it is perhaps the way of fate that much of some who joke the convention of the scruggs trail. The time came, which comes to all young women, when the heart calls for more than money and confidence; and having acquired some rental property and a sizable bank account, Amanda has to render what more life could have in store for her. Real Love What would it matter, she wondered, if she slipped a little of the wine at first and then resisted her clandestine lamination as one of sanctity. Did the laws of Tennessee forbid marriage of white and colored? Had she been a slave in Tennessee, Mississippi and other parts of the South rebelled at this unnatural barrier which the South had? But if Amanda did consider her affair sacred at first, subsequent events proved that there came a time when the call to the heart drove her to resent the association than her proud lover. Trapped When stories of this kind drifted back to Dinshul, he at first discounted them as Amanda reassured him. But after a while suspicion grew, and he was when Amanda a girl and a boy took a trip to New York that Dinshul, employing detectives trapped them, and the romance between him and Amanda ended. There was no tragedy. He just quit. Then she married the man, Henry Bascomb, and they set out in life to make the best of it. First they went to the house where they also saw that Bascomb accustomed to easy money began to squander the Scruggs savings. An way it was not long before Amanda began to sell this and that piece of property and the money she had saved in residence went under the hammer. Amusement Garden This home and around have been acquired by a white man who has converted it into an amusement park, known as the Pink Rose Amusement Garden. But the real pink rose has faded. They say she went to Arkansas and they tell you of poverty, a strucure to live and perhaps a dope adict. Girls and boys now pass away: the former Scruggs home have something more serious to ponder over, chicken. The once beautiful place to them now is like a ghost house in which the terror strike image of a beautiful girl who shifted her to ashes, rooms in perpetual misery.

EXPERIMENTAL THEATRE GROUP GIVES 'PLUMES' Semi-Private Performance of Georgia Douglas Johnson's Play Presented. NEW YORK. — What many of the audiences declared to be an unusually brilliant performance of "Plumes," a one-act play by Georgia Douglas Johnson, was given by the first acting company of the Negro Experimental Theatre here. Wednesday evening in the auditorium of the 135th street branch of the public library. The cast consisted of Miss Pricilla Boone, Miss Leontha Wright and James Egert Allen, and the production was directed by Harold Jackman The play was presented in a semi-private performance given for members of the Negro Experimental Theater and a number of invited guests. Every member of the pantheon gave the appended professional excellence and was rewarded with long and enthusiastic applause at the fall of the curtain. After the performance Miss Boone and Mr. Jackman received many compliments on their work, and several of the members of the rapid progress being made by the Negro Experimental Theatre. TALE OF MOTHER LOVE. "Plumes" is a folk drama in which a devoted mother is compelled by fate to face the most ironical of dilemmas. Her daughter is dangerously ill and the doctor advises a last-minute operation. The cost of the operation is too expensive practically—the family savings and the doctor is too conscientious to assure the mother that it will be successful. He will commit himself no further than the statement that it is the child's last chance of recovery. The mother, however, is troubled by the thought that if the operation turns out to be a failure she wu- ters herself in a respectable funeral, with a handsome hearse drawn by horses with tossing plumes in their bridles. While she is trying to decide between science and sentiment, her daughter dies. The implication is that an operation would not be assured—a victory for mother love that is sometimes more devoted than it is wise. DIRECTOR TO EUROPE. Shortly after the performance of "Plumes," Mr. Jackman sailed for Europe where he will visit the leading theaters of the Continent. He will return to America early in September and plan a trip to the Congo Experimental Theater during its first season which will begin early in the fall. TO GET CHARTER. At a special business meeting held before the performance of "Plumes" the members of the Negro Experimental Theater ratified the results and virtually completed the organization work which has thus far consumed much of the energy of the group. During the meeting Attorney Wm. T. Anzib, legal adviser to the organization, came from the secretary of state of New York advising him that his application for a charter had been accepted and that the charter would be issued in a few days, will be the final step in organization, and will be able to devote all its energy to the problems of production. Foster Plans Race Picture Company LOS ANGELES, CALIF.—Pointing to the fact that the race spends $8,000.00 a year, see the movies. William (Bill) Foster, veteran director of the stage, and more recently of the screen is making plans for an all-rise film producing company at Santa Monica. Mr. Foster, who became associated with pictures back in the old Essard days, when he assisted in making a series of race comedies for Spoor, states that if pictures were to be produced, showing the Negro at his best, rather than as a handkerchief-headed cornfield worker, they must be produced one-hundred per cent by race talent, and capital.

Ike Dixon received a telegram from Horace Henderson, who also had met with a terrible automobile accident and would not be able to get here until Tuesday noon. After Henderson's band failed to be by seven oclock, rather than the people in the audience, and not have any music, Ike Dixon secured a band to play, so that the dance patterns would be dance until Horace Henderson's band. After the band did not show up at all, Ike Dixon sent three telegrams, not getting from the telegrams, Horace Henderson on the telephone. In the conversation he was informed that four of the men were in hospital and would be unable to make the head or disappointed the pubic.

(ANP)—Dispatches from London state that the members of the cast of "Porgy" which has finished its run in that city are now giving Eugene O'Neill's "All God's Chillun Got Wings" at the Court theatre. The parlor, star of "Porgy," has the part of Kim, and Beatrix Lehman, the part of the white wife. "Miss Lehman as Ella," writes the critic in the Evening News, London. "acts with a desperate violence which is very impressive; her white face, blazing eyes, and agonized mouth in the final scene of somber musical drama very vivid. Frank Wilson as Jim acts with a grave intensity which is very moving."

Stepin Fetchitand "Bubbles" Battle for Public BIG SPOTLIGHT DANCE at Wonderland Park MONDAY, JULY 8th Admission to Pavillion, 25 Cents LOS ANGELES, CALIF. (A. N. P.) —Stepin Fetchit is again in the lime-light and again with unfavorable notoriety. This time the name of "Bubbles" of the famous team of Buck and Bubbles is linked with his as the result of a knock-down, dragout, house-and-alley battle that had half of California's "Harlem" excited. Screams, yells, sounds of crushing glass and china, shades of heavy objection, furniture or bodies falling, suddenly emanated from Steinin's residence at 1609 East 40th street, last Sunday afternoon late. In the midst of the bedlam, out the front burst the long lean form of Bubbles leaping like a greyhound with Steinin curving down the driveway from the back of the house and right behind Bubbles throwing full bottles of home brew at him, which exploded as they struck with the fire. One of those struck the long legged runner on the right fore arm cutting a ragged gash but never slowing his pace. Step's Expensive Limonsine Step's liveried chauffeur then speeded out behind bubbles in Step's expensive limousine. For a while it too was out distanced by the speeding Bubbles, but as the driver was only on mercy bent he succeeded in convincing the dancer that he only wanted to take him to a hospital and get his arm "sewed up." Thoroughly wryly now, he craved revenge on his erstwhile host, so refused medical attention but bought a half dozen pints of Avenue "panther sweat" and thinking he needed ammunition and that he getting right to go back and clean out the Step domicile. Friendly policemen finally took him in hand and sent him home. The brawn started through a joke that Step suggested Bubbles help him play on his fancee. Miss Dorothy Stevenson, 17-year-old Los Angeles girl, They were to stage her her affection but it seems that Bubbles was too good an actor and Step, detecting a note of sincerity in Bubbles' statement, grew angry and the battle began in real earnest. Other frightened guests fled to the streets and Steyn's sister tried to prevail on Bubbles to jump the back of the car but could not be was the driveway armed with a case of home brew.

In a delightfully entertaining manner, F. H. M.-Murray, better known as "Pop," proofreader of the AFRO-AMERICAN, outlined the mistakes and shortcomings of race newspapers in general and AFRO employees of the editorial department in particular, at the Afro Club meeting Saturday. Mr. Murray, who has been reading for twenty-five years and in the printing and newspaper work for fifty years, gave as the most important advice to young journalists the slogan, "Know when you know, and know when you don't know." He stated that typographical and literary errors were the chief problem of race newspapers. There is a tendency on the part of college graduates to feel that they are ready to take up newspaper work immediately, but that is not true, for journalism, particularly copy editing and proofreading requires special preparation and constant study to keep up. It is not age that impinges old men from field work, he declared, but the fact that they have not kept up with the requirements and changing conditions of their job. Mr. Murray left school at what in the present day system of education would be the end of the junior high school course. He has attained the equivalent of a high school and college education since leaving school, as he expressed it, "by hook or crook." He frequently says, however, that he has learned a lot just by living. Girl. 13. Hurt at Work While working at the Shapiro Bag company, 819 S. Caroline, Hattie Williams, 13. 235 S.

Where Stepln Got His Name lo Soliman Refused Angelo Solimann, Son of African Prince, Refused Greatest Honors The Amazing Story of a Black Slave Who became Adviser to Europe's Leading Rulers. By J. A. ROGERS, International Correspondent and Author. That men with the ability to be great scientists, poets, thinkers, musicians, and artists are even now naming the jungles of Africa and are only waiting for the quickening touch of civilization to come and dazzle the world with their gifts is proved by the number of Negroes, who be fate have come to Europe from time to time to hold high rank there. Among the foremost of these was Angelo Folkmann. Born in Congo Solomon Islands, was born in the Congo about 1740. He was one of the thousands and thousands of children torn away from family time by raiders and scattered in the North Africa and the New World. Thus his early history has come only from his child memory has been able to recall. He was about seven at the time. He says that he was the son of a child called Guscusian. His family's name, he said, was Mami-Famory and his own Mmadi-Mamky. He said he recalled his great respect and the number of his servitors. Clever Child As a child he was ever with the bow and arrow could bring down with ease birds on the wing. He also adopted in dancing and in singing the songs of his native land, which made him a favorite with the One day as he was playing beside his mother while the latter was nursed his sister, another tribe, man and his slave, the slave, descended on his mother. His grandfather save the alarm and his father rushed to meet the enemy, while Angelo ran off into the woods with his boy and his sister. This last he ever saw any of his parents alive, for peeping from behind the tree, he saw his father and his grandfather fall under the shadow of the tribe who were cut out but they beaten back and either killed or captured. Later Angelo and his companion were discovered, and led off prisoners. Exhanced for Horse Arriving for a horse he was exchanged for a horse and taken to wharf. Here he found many of his awaiting shipwreck, his booked ancestor, his mother and his sister but they were not among them. He tried to learn something their fate, but the others were afraid and soon came separated from him forever. They probably were shipped on to America while he was taken to North America his master. Here, despite home-sickness and the sad fate of his family, he met to mingle camels. The years passed and one day rich Italian on a visit to North America his wife and he was so impressed by his splendid bearing and his gentle and amiable ways that he bought him, and taken to Sicily, presented him to one of the Countess Solmann. Soon after his arrival he fell very Pictures "Yes, it was this way. Some of the papers have it all wrong." You see I used to hang around the tracks; was everything from stable boy to toit. It was at a Texas race track where I saw *Step* and *Fetch It* the racer. I had lost on every race and didn't have a dollar in my pocket but I did have on some classy toys and a stud that sparkled like 'nobody's business.' Before the next race came on a friend who was with me and I had a stud that would win the race. Lawn Martin had never been beaten on that track but as I looked over the list I saw the name *Step* and *Fetch It*. It struck horse to do somehow. Here's a horse that beats Lawn Martin. I told my friend. "Even more money says he can't, my friend came back. I'm broke but I'll bet you my clothes and my pin. How much will you bet?" "My friend knew that the sparkler was genuine so he said, 'One hundred and fifty.'" "You're on." And was the race "Well, Step and Fetch it stepped home a head irf front of Lawn Martin, thereby saving my wardrobe and pin and netting me some cash. I was called 'Step' and after that I teamed with a fellow. We took the name of the horse. He was called 'Step' and I was called 'Fetch it'.

I told the Lord if Hed just me out I'd fill and the countess got the best medical attendance for him and showed every attention on him. Among her attendants was a Negro woman, named Angelina, who was particularly kind to him. When he was cured, the countess, who had decided to adopt him into her own family, arranged for his baptism into the Christian faith. When asked by her what Christian name he would like, for hitherto he had been known as his African one, he named "Angela" in recognition of Angelina's care. Loved by All Shortly after he was baptized with all the ceremonies beffiting one belonging to a noble household as time came, he himself and everybody by his goodness of heart, his just spirit, and the astonishing manner in which he progressed with his studies. He did not wear the Italian costume but one that was rather Oriental in taste, it having been specially designed for him by a leading Italian artisan, its lines, a flowing costume of dazzling whiteness, which it is said, "showed off to great advantage the black velvet color of the skin, ornamented with an sigret and a diamond of the purest water. Remarkably Gifted But Angelo was not destined to remain with the family that loved him so much, and which he loved so deeply in return. One Prince Lobkowitz, his general, and one Angelo, his great dignitaries of the Austrian Court, visited the Countess Solmann. The prince met Angelo and talked with him, and was so impressed with his well-proportioned body, the nobility of his features, and his wit and intelligence that he expressed a desire to have him as one of his personal attendances. At that time all Italy belonged to Austria, and when one so great as the imperial general, said he wished anything, it was regarded as a command. The count yielded him to the prince and once more Angelo himself separated from loved ones. The first few weeks with the prince were unhappy ones for him, for the latter went off leaving him to the care of his major-duty. On the instruction he should be taught him. This he mastered rapidly that, it is said, in "17 days" he could write and speak that language with a fair degree of fluency. On the prince's return he became his attendant and soon afterwards he became his esteemed friend and confidant. In the wars that followed he caught by the prince's side, and one day when the latter was wounded, he on his shoulders. In the years that ensued Angelo became skilled in military tactics, and proved such an intrigued warrior, that, it is said that Marsh was commanded, and the Austrian army that esteemed him a great praised him in front of the whole army, and presented him with a super Turkish sword, and offered him the command of a company. But this would have taken him down from the prince and Angelo declined. Apt Pupil Here he is at the wheel of the car that his contract forbids him to drive. so straight if I stared." Stepin's hands once had a way of "stickin" to things. Well, his prayer was answered. "I've seen some pretty tough days in school," he said. I was a little promise.

He smiled, "Is that your name?" He put on that pose for their benefit. "He soon came back and said the director wanted to see me. I slouched into the office and hopped in the chair. I put on that pose for their benefit." "Well the director liked me so they offered me one hundred per week to play the part. I told them, 'He told me when to report for work.' "When I got back to my room I started thinking. I had sold myself too cheaply. I was making one hundred on the stage. Why quit that Next to Prince In reality, Angelo stood next to the prince. Those who had favors to ask of the prince had to approach him him through Angelo—a task which, it is said, Angelo filled with such tact, kindness, and irrepressible connection, that he won the high position. Some years later the prince died and his last request of Angelo was that he should enter the service of the prince's best friend the General, Prince Venerio. The same day, on the same time Francis I, Emperor of Rome, hearing of the death of Prince Lokwitz, sent a messenger to Angelo, offering him a high place in his service and had he remained with the Prince of the Lichtenstein. Guest at Coronation Here he remained for many years doing the same service as he had done for the Prince Lokbokwit. When Francis I died and Joseph II was to be crowned in his place, the German Empire with the Prince of Lichtenstelm to the coronation. At Frankfurt he met the young emperor, Joseph II for the first time, and a friendship began until the death of the emperor January 30, 1790. Maria Theresa, empress of Austria, and mother of Joseph, had given orders that Joseph should be educated as if learning were play, Joseph becoming the first emperor to him to his palace as well as to his apartments in the magnificent Schonbrunn Palace where the two would be seen together at all hours of the day. The called each of their first names, and would stroll about the palace grounds, and the city together. Friend of Emperor The young emperor, it is said, "even took Angelo's arm in promenading." Angelo with his wider experience, nobility and cultivated mind, did influence the emperor. Later, Joseph succeeded to the throne of Austria, becoming one of the most liberal and enlightened of his fellow citizens, whose lous tolerance, which his mother, Maria Thiressa, had not been. He did all he could to improve the lot of the peasants and to spread knowledge. He was: "Reason and Brightenment." Secret Exposed Before this, however, Joseph was unwittingly to be the cause of a quarrel between Angelo and Prince of Liesbeth. Angelo had already married for some years without the knowledge or consent of the prince. He had, however, confided in the young emperor, that he would be with the prince one day, let slip a remark that led to the exposure of Angelo's secret: The prince, in anger, banished Angelo Prince and struck him from his will. Among the things he had destined for him was a superb diamond that Angelo used to wear on his turban when he rode with prince on great parades or holdings. Devoted to Family The young emperor, keenly regretting what he had done, offered to intercede with the king, who had been string for some time of the life of the Court, refused his offer. He longed to see his little daughter in the cottage he had built The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, July 6, 1929 A boy carrying a load of water stands in front of a camel, while two men in traditional attire look on. if I wasn't going to get more? The day before we were to begin work I went to the studio and told them "Within" for one hundred per week. "How much do you want?" they asked "One hundred a day," I said slowly. "They laughed and I started out the door. "Well, we finally agreed upon seventy-five per day." John M. Siahl was Stepin Fetchis first director and he is more enthusiastic than when he first st胆ed into his office. Salary Over $150 Per Week Stepin Fetchis has a two year option in the job, people will tell you that he makes one thousand per week. He told him himself that he made quite a bit more money a week and all expenses. He is to receive two hundred per week raises in salary every six months. He said he is Speeding Yes. he has three cars. A special built Cadillac and two others fully as impressive looking.

Here, also, his friends, high and low, sought him out. Later, the prince died, and Prince Francis, his successor, meeting Angelo in the street one day, stopped his carriage and, inviting him to enter, told him as they rode along that he was convinced that Angelo would pair the harm done by his uncle." He said that he knew no one so capable as Angelo to inspect the education of his son, the Prince Louis, and offered him the post of teacher of the young prince's training. Returns to Palace On this Angelo went back to live in the palace, taking his family with him, and supervising the work of the tutors. The prince gave him a "I want a house full of children. I'll have plenty to take care of them. I want to teach them to mother children doesn't want me. I give ten per cent of all I make to Catholic by conversion.

Ferdinand, warmly welcomed him and his family. At Versailles, where he visited the Queen Marie, Antoinette, sister of his friend, Joseph II. he was received with high honor by the queen and her court. He was ranked with the best of his day. It was an age when gambling was fashionable but Angelo never played for large sums. Was Kind-Hearted The following story is told of him: One day, at the instigation of the prince, he took part in a game of faro and won 20,000 florins. His adversary, eager for revenge, bet him another 30,000. Angelo played and won, but knowing that his opponent would be mined offered to play him on which he arranged the cards so THE CREEPING THING A Story of Gruesome and Haunting Mystery NOW GO ON: WITH THE STORY.

The Abbe Gregorie, who seems to have been naturally, has written a short biography of him.

"But," I interjected, puzzled, "thought you told me the wide corridor led directly back through the center of the house above stairs as it does below. My own voice was lowered to the ground, a gentle address to the surroundings and the atmosphere of mystery and horror. "It does," affirmed my companion, "but the first door leading to the left opers, to isolate the octagonal room more effectively from the other rooms of the house proper. This short, irregular corridor, is unlighted save for the tiny window through which the room is illuminated. Since the strange horrors have been happening, this door is left open all night." "Was anyone in this corridor able to observe during the time the Creation took place?" I rallied eagerly for his answer. "I look for you, Monsieur. The femme she insist that she stay in the houmfort." (In the island of his youth, old Diane Monsieur houses set deep in secret places of Haitian jungles, and those houmforts of the voodoo worshippers were fily exemplified by this mysterious room of horror.

I felt some nerve inside of me taut at that spontaneous indication of this old servant's weakness, and the weird crimes that were being committed in this lonely place. Such confidence as this should not be misplaced if it were humanly possible to just listen to what had always been the one figure in that house of mystery that offered or asked friendship from the outside world, been the shielding world, had ever responded to his needs. From the first day when he had timidly offered me an apole from the old ochard beyond the shielding wall and bordering the swyn House, he had been his staircase and perhaps only friend. The apple was good. It was only the first one of the business with the canny old fisherman that I soon found the "queer outlander" (as the other townfolk called him) to be. The success of this as a daidess was no news to old Diaron. Indeed it was one of his few obsessions that no solution of crime was too difficult for me. I felt bound to live up to my self, with Alice urging me by his silence and his relieved look of turning over the responsibility that rested heavily on his shoulders, I mentally took charge. "I hope you are right, Diaron." I said with the reservation a minute more with the difficulties than I could take care of. "Now just what is it that is eating you so about this insistent dame and the 'houftow' as you call it? The question brought the old yellow back to the present with a jerk. He immediately his expensive hands and beaul in a conglomerate patois of French and English the female propensity for trouble-making, and this moment I let the stream of inventive and incoherer flow unstrained. Then, when I felt the pressure and been somewhat relieved, I had the excited man down to specific detail. A Female Detective The reprehensible and unreasonable "femme," it seemed, was the gracesel, and all but unsexed (accented on the word "femme") Miss Alessie Hardme. She had arrived at Seilwyn House something like an hour earlier, armed, as it were, cap-a-pie and with "the firm hand of the hand" remaining in the octagonal room for the night; her avowed purpose being the solution of the hitherto baffling and unsolved mystery of the curtains, "Guerrez la femme," seems to have been unnecessary advice for Diaron in this particular case. She had appeared on the scene of her attack, and refused to budge from same. "Come along, Diaron," I soothed as the flood of indecision and complaints slowed down into bubbles if spilled on the floor, or could not dissolve the lady from her unladylike intentions" "Have you ever seen Miss Hardmore?" Alec whispered the question if she would be we climbed the long shallow stairs. "No." I flung the answer carelessly back to him, wondering at the inevitability and vaguely contemptuous nature of the sub rosa tone in which it was asked. I thought Alec laughed significantly, albeit in an undertone. I went back after Diaron, my mind busily engaged on the possibilities and probabilities of solving the nature of the criminal agency or agents responsible for the death ofold Men, and Eselyn and the disappearance of their bodies, I brought myself to a standstill automatically when we were told by top by Alene-Hardmore herself. My first impression was of the hugeness of the woman. A huge black. Her shoulders were gave one the feeling of masculinity. Alene Hardmore was two inches over six feet in height and ebony black. Her shoulders were great muscles of her large half bare arms flexed and rippled as she reached out and gripped my hand in greeting. My disapproval of this mannish woman. Her size and general masculinity aroused a fundamental antagonism in my mind man, to be a woman; to be being a pretty large man myself (I am five feet eleven, and played half-back on the star eleven the interscholastic teams three years ago). I found it peculiarly distasteful. Her voice, when she spoke, prejudiced me still further against her. It was hard and harsh. She spoke deep in her throat like a man. "You're the great Detective Frederick," she said directly and without introduction from him. She told me from your pictures and because the marshal and the coroner both told me that they were expecting you in on the case, long ago. Mr. Nasra needed to want to hold everything till you came, but I prevailed upon the authorities at L—(the county seat), to allow me to proceed. "You're the great Detective," Hope you'll see the thing in a reasonable frame of mind." She regarded me keenly as she said this (Continued on page twelve) The Creeping Thing toward me. to I smiled reassuringly in return. "If later, you will. Diaron, "but just now do me. Hard- to do me the kindness to allow me to examine the room of mystery." I shot a condescension in the direction of the big "Oh, certainly," she acquiesced drily. "It is the only wise thing to do. I may need you, and if you know me, geography of the area to lend aid in in an emergency." At the end of the narrow corridor that has been previously described, Following her single file, Alec and I were unable to pass her or indeed to see beyond her save above her and through the interstices between and around the tumbled at the into the tall narrow door leading into the octagonal room. In a brief time, she pushed the door open. It swung away easily. We passed in, and she Once on no longer followed but took the initiative. I was tired of playing second fiddle to Miss Alene Hardmore's first. In this examination, I would proceed independently or intervene from her. The great, high ceiled room was dim with shadows. Its many corners were indistinct like gray bats' above the huge four-poster bed that occupied the space just opposite and facing the door. In the sudden draft, the musty old curtains that shrouded it swayed in the breeze and some of some monstrous creature of the tomb. Slowly and shisterly they billowed and sank back upon themselves, caving in like the hollow cheeks of a dead miser. I swayed in a sharp breath behind me. "Lend me your flash, Alec." I said quietly. I knew how to still Alec's jumpy nerves. He was one of those responsively sensitive chaps, sounded and or entreat, and he was assured and calmed. Alec passed me his flash light. I switched it on. Examining the Room. Without further aid I turned my attention to a minute examination of the room. Alec's description had been authentic as to every detail. There was absolutely no possible opening large enough to admit or give exit to any body larger than that of a normal child. Of furnishings, there were only the great bed, a deal table beside it and a single chair. Scattered here and there were huge built-in-candle-sticks in which were several half-burnt-out candle ends. They were the only means of illumination in the room, above and shrouded by the heavy lascurrations of the trees were negligible factors in the matter of light.

I thought she detected a sinister smile on her face and petted me. I petted her. But she did not move or offer a word of advice or criticism. She had found - nothing alarming, nothing frightening, weird and fantastic they might be. With a last circuit of the room, in which I carefully examined each article and that they were exactly what she 12 Continued From Page Eleven and paused. I felt myself stiffening against the woman but I had to be hurried. As yet there was no excuse for anything she had comitted to. She set that could by the stiff stretch of imagination she tortured into antagonism. The slight emphasis on the word "right" preceding her description of my detecting ability, might have been merely imagined, rather than hinted. "It depends on how you see the thing. Miss—er-Hardmore.

When she spoke, in her deep masculine voice was as deliberate as her gaze had been. Miss Hardmore Surprises "Well, maybe so, after tonight. But for tonight, it don't happen to depend on thinking but rather on authority, and I've already got that." She pulled an ironic smile of iron-satisfaction. I choked back the epithet that rose to my lips. The huge, black woman pulled a long, bulbous envelope from the concord folds of her black dress and held it out to me. It bore the seal of the county. I took it as deliberately as she had done, and opening it, extracted the folded legal sheet from it. It was an order from the county court enjoining everyone on the premises or elsewhere with her. The Hardmore of the octagonal tower room of Selwyn House for the night, and further calling on all resident guards, or others engaged therein, to aid and assist her. The Hardmore was indisputable. With my usual method of accepting the inevitable with as good grace as possible, I determined to accept this first setback to my own personal investigation in the numerous murders, in a sporting manner.

These women, as well as many others who come over for a good time, get awful lonesome at times. To make matters worse they are in countries whose language they do not speak. And this is where the gigolo, or male vamp, comes in. Of course, in America he is known by a shorter and uglier name. These male cocoties are of striking figure—a man with an extremely dented and with patent leather hair. Few, if any, are blond. I have seen dozens of gigolos, and the noticeable fact about them is that they are all dark. Most women would be proud to be seen with men of such ap- As to their manners, they are the smoothest and most insinuating. They know feminine psychology as the hand knows the path to the muthu. A lady, entering a night club, unattended, has but to summon a gigolo. He dances with her - dances a minimum of fifty cents a dance. Rich women, especially of middle age, have been known "to fall" for these shekhs. They sometimes take the opportunity to mountments and suit him out thoroughly. He becomes her guide when she tours the Continent. Usually he is a Russian and speaks several languages. Sometimes it is the husband who employs one of these gigolos for his wife. He has come to Paris or Berlin for a good time himself. Friend he has in his hand hands her over to a "gigly" who takes her to all the gay spots, while he hits it up elsewhere himself.

Needless to say some of these Don Juans are tricksters, and numerous men being robbed.

The Passing Review By BILL GIBSON ‘THERE IS REJOICING, yea there ts the sound of the ‘warheld the trumpet in Baltimoreland, and rightly so, for Frank Wart the frumPforis have brought to the Monumental City the gonfalon for the first half of the American ‘League baseball pennant race. ‘The winning of the flag was no. cinch for the local tossers, for they met some reverses ‘that almost knocked them off their! feet. Fighting gamely until the end, however, they overcame ‘their handi- caps to cop the bunting. Fortune. in the guise of misfortune. ‘aided the locals. for It was evident ‘that the injuries sustained by the Homestead Grays In their anto ‘smash took some of the pep out of the Pittsburgh entry in their series here. ‘Not that the presence of the injured players would have de- feated the Sox. no. but It was ‘evident, and natural too, that the Grays were disheartened by the tragedy. Cum Posey swore by the god baseball that if he had had all of his men here that there ‘would have been a different ending to the ‘Sox-Grays series. But that is history now. and already the locals are priming for the start of the second half, when they face Jim Keenan's strong Lincoln Giants in a brace of tests in ‘New York, Sunday. ‘Commenting on the first half it must be again called to the attention of club owners that the games are far too much drawn out. Much time Is wasted. even when games begin, on time, in arguing with the umpires, ‘disputing plays, and tossing, the ball around the field during the game. It would no doubt break the feague record If games were played in one hour and fifty minutes. Yet it should be done with regularity. The games must be speeded ‘up if the fans are to be expected to turn out. Britt, of the Grays. held the game up considerably Sunday. by disputing with the umpire over a decision that DID NOT CONCERN HIM at all. Ugly tactics displayed by him in knocking down a defenseless pop vendor (much smaller than he) and in brandish- ing a bat when razzed by fans for his unsportsmanlike conduct, are ‘things not to be condoned. ‘They might have been ali right in bygche days, but they are certainly out of place now. | And if the Inanagers would insist on rigidity in enforcing the rules, much of the foolishness that is taken from the supposed “big boys" and pampered peis of race baseball could be done away with, once aad forever. s.

Washington thrilled the fans with catches in left field which would have ordinarily been two or three base Thomas, who started on the mound for the Lincoln's in the second game, became in the fourth game, a wide receiver, in a raw, sturdy cut, and then hits by Hudspeth, Charleston, Cockrell and Johnson enbled the visitors to score seven yards, but the coach could be chieved.

Lundy's Texas score was 10, Marcell scored when Britt made a bad peg to second in an attempt to trap the Black Sox shortstop. Marcell's single scored Lundy and the third sacker later scored when Clemente outed a centerfield. Lee closed the inning by whiffing. Warfield's double, Washington's triple, and Wilson's sacrifice, accounted for two more Sox runs in the fourth. Clemente scored the seventh inning when Wilson scampered home from third on Miller's wild pitch. With only one out in the eighth, Lee tripped, but died on the sack when fanned. Mason air-lined to Jackson. Outfielders on both teams contributed greatly to keeping the score down. Dixon made two brilliant catches of flies from the bats of M. Harris and Turner in seventh, when two were on base. Fourth Game a Walkaway The final game was called as the Grays ended their half of the fifth inning, and after the Sox had pounded Elbert Williams, Mason, the Grays had eleven runs. Wildness of the visiting pitchers only added to their misery. Two runs were made by the Grays in second inning and an equal number in the fifth. The game was featured by home runs by Pete Washington of the Sox, and "Jawn" Beckwith of the visitors, the Grays, coming in with one on and the latter's coming in the fifth with none on. Five Hits. Four Runs The locals made five hits in four runs in the second inning. Lee opened the inning by walking. Ryan singled and hit a home run. He missed Miller's toss, at second. Washington's single scored Lee, but Ryan was caught trying to trek home. Washington scored when Wilson doubled and and hit a home run, when he was caught napping at second and traced to third ahead of W. Harris who chased him and stumbled. From the stands it did not appear that Wilson did the decision and the decision was liberally booed. Dixon doubled, scoring Wilson and came home on Lundy's single, ending the scoring and the score of the game, was overhead by his mates piled up a lead, but he let up in the fifth when it was ceramic in the end of that inning, and allowed the Grays two hits which were good for six bases. f of League Race Rosebuds, Crushed by Giants, Quit BALTIMORE GIANTS DEFEAT "BUDS," 11-0 Johnson Allows Only One Hit and Fans Seven in Five-Inning Tilt.

C. nine quit the field after their half of the fifth inning with the score 11-0 against them by thoughts of a victory over the Giants in an early season practice game, the Rosebuds found themselves completely outclassed from the team at the Taylormen, was almost inviolable, allowing only one more measly and striking out six men in the five innings that the Rosebuds were playing at straight ball. his mates were piling up an advantage for him, allying seven runs in the opening frame. They counter, four more runs, Conway, Wallace, Day, Nash and Travis, combined with speed on the paths, boosted the score. Poor base running by the Rosebuds, however, killed all opportunity. The fourth inning Tyre was caught at third trying to stretch his blow to a triple after Travis had dropped the ball for what should have been an easy out. In the fifth Grace, the fifth flat-footeded on the paths when they might have been safe. With Johnson coming up for his turn at hat in the fifth and with all the Rosebond players in the field, the team dashed from the field, giving no explanation for their action. BALTO.

The league amended the player limit to 16 players and a three-day notification of any new men signed with a penalty of a forfeited game. The league reported that man who has not been reported to the league secretary.

Hello there Pansy: This past week has been crowded with a little bit of everything. What, with great pleasure preeminending, and living or being given delightful parties and so on, Baltimore fairly opened its doors to the younger generation. The exercises at Douglass high were especially beautiful. The singing and costumes be long remembered. The too, the graduates were many and varied in degrees of detail and elaborations. Bon Voyage Parties. The collegiate circle as well as the older college all agro over the future departures of Hilda Anderson, Mildred McMechen and Constance Murphy for Europe. At several of the delightful bon voyage parties, the decorations of miniature steamships and luggage were very suggestive of the proposed trip. Fourth of July. Fourth of July celebrations are under way with society doing its best to make it a hilarious and glorious one. Brad James and Erma had about forty people out to their home at Patapsco, Maryland, to spend the day. The Thomasmen down at Sparrows Point interested at several yachts out on Highland Beach was overflowing with motor parties from far and near. The Wrights had their Chesapeake Bay cottage open with house guests, as well as the Tolons, Clarence Chambers and a number of others at the beaches. The Halls at Phoenix, and invited the grown-ups, and their kiddies for the day in the country with display of fire works later in evening. A number of fishing parties were enjoyed by the men folk. Straw rides, excursion to Brown's Grove by the Natalts club, and all day picnics at Wonderland park completed the day's program. Christening Party. Minna. Anne is the darling baby daughter of Iradlele and Nelson Williams, of 1008 Madison avenue. Spoiled, of course, and natural, best baby in the world. However, Iradlele's uncle Rex, Charles H. came all the way from Charlestown, W. Va. to christen on Thursday evening. A party followed. Martha Harmon and Iradle are as chummy as two sisters and it is not surprising that Martha is as god mother. With all her excitement, the spouses of water and despite the kisses on her cheeks, of Anna Anne slept and was unaware of the numerous gifts delivered to her mother. The christening outfit was gorgeous, the gifts of her granddady and ma, and the gifts of her auntess. With all the Williams present as well as the Bond relations and intimate friends.

The music was furnished by Howard Anderson. The lights were low enough. He placed a table in the parlor, where Wood raved all the evening, maybe because Early Koger had Dorothy John when he thought he should be her partner. Let us hope he has gotten the job. We all saw the all way on the front porch to John Reeder, and we all wonder why. Everyone was feeling good; probably because most of the guests had just gotten from their house, only from high school.
