Picture on Page 2 There is no jim-crow or other discriminatory seating regulations on the Nevin bus lines carrying passengers between New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington. This was the assurance of the Nevin Bulldog with offices at the Liberty Street station, Baltimore, Monday. It was given by officials of the terminal in reply to an inquiry by the APRO-AMERICAN which received following letter from a Washington To the Editor: On July 27th last, I had occasion to come to Baltimore; so I decided to travel by the way, the New York City, before the previous Saturday I had traveled to Baltimore on the afore mentioned line and was seated in the rear of a double decker (upper bus) and thinking all Baltimore passengers were so seated. But on July 27th I boarded the bus at Fifth and E street northwest. A young lady we accompanied me, I was saying the driver, she sought a seat toward the rear of the bus. When I finished my business with the driver, I beckoned her and the driver immediately told me I would HAVE to sit in the rear. At once asked for the return of my money, which he slowly returned, saying "those were his orders." JAMES O. WILLIAMS, 1737 13th street, N.W. Washington, D.C. P.S. The bus left the Washington, July 27, 1928, at 12:30; arrived at Tenth and E street northwest, at 12:48.

PARIS (Special to the Afro-American) — How American troops in France during the last war began making the world safe for democracy by teaching the French the ABC of color prejudice is exposed in an article in Le Monde by Rene Maran author of "Batouala." The article is entitled, "The Americanisation of France," and traces the growth of color prejudice in France from the coming of the Americans to the recent founding of the Haitian Minister at the cafe, La Couole. Confidential Maran gives at length the instructions that he says, were officially licensed American authorities to French officers who had to deal with colored American troops. These instructions give them into current race prejudice that they deserve to be quoted at length. According to Maran they were condemned by Colonel Linard, chief of the French military mission for dissemination and are as follows: "It is important that French officers be commanded by the command the black American troops or to come in contact with them should have an exchotion of the position of the Negro. The positions exposed in the following note ought therefore to be communicated to them and it is important they be treated with respect. It is even the duty of the French military authorities to instruct by the aid of the civil authorities the French American troops with colored American troops." No Discussion "The American point of view upon the Negro question may seem wrong to many French minds, but it is not wrong to have a fault with what certain people will call a 'prejudice', American opinion upon the Negro question is unanimous and admits of no discussion. The American people in the United States (15 million adults) would create a danger of degeneracy for the white people of the American Republic if an inexorable separation was not made between blacks and whites." French Familiar "As this danger does not exist for the French race, the French public is accustomed to treat the Negro faction and be very indulgent to ward him." "This indulgence and this familiarity hurts the Americans profoundly, and it is also hurting the Negro an attack on their national beliefs and their national identity, and with the French will inspire intolerable pretensions in the American black. It is indispensable that every effort be made to the American opinion and pride be not hurt." Inferior Citizen "Although he is a citizen of the United States, the Negro is considered by the white American as an inhuman animal, and he is ideal in matters of service or business. The American Negro is generally regarded as being unintelligent, indiscriminate in civic or professional discipline, and soon become too familiar. "The vices of the Negro are a combination of those who has to severely repress them. For example, the Negro troops have committed by themselves alone more rapes than by whites, and together, and yet only the best of them, morally and physically were accepted in the army, the number of rapes among them having been enormous. Not To Sit at Table "Conclusion. It is therefore necessary for the French officers, stationed close intimacy, to be careful and amiable with them but they must avoid treating them on the same level as the latter, and hurt the latter profoundly. They must not be permitted to sit at the same table and the shaking of hands and conversations should be avoided unless visits not of a strictly service nature. No Praise Before Whites "Care should be taken not to praise the Negro troops too warmly, especially their good qualities and their services but do so in moderate terms and strictly according to reality. Try to see them in the environment but do not spoil the Negroes. Americans are indignant at the sight of a white woman and a black man together in public. They cannot gain a picture in LA Vie Parisienne entitled 'The Child of the Desert,' representing a white woman with a black man. The identity of the white woman with the black is moreover, profoundly regretted by experienced colonialists, who see in it the loss of prestige for the white race. "Military authority cannot intervene directly in this question but it can influence the masses of the people through education." **Intellectual Journal** Le.

COLUMBIA LAD, BRIDE, GUESTS AT PARTY Interracial Marriage Nothing Unusual to Two Medical Students. PLANS NOT DETERMINED First Thing, they Say, Is to Finish their Education. By GERALDYN DISMOND Mrs. Peterson was completely at ease—neither gully nor hurry. She was a sincere clapstake, a sincere clapstake of the hand, and a direct glance. Although only twenty-one, she has that ease and graciousness. She is not a man of many a more unaffected, charming and wholesome person, one could not wish to know. Unusual for Them If she has done anything unusual she is not conscious of it. Nor would anyone be, who saw them together in the college. Nor would anyone have been thrown together in their studies for two years. They are in the same class in the medical school. Colleagues in the same interests, the same cultural backgrounds, and the same ideals, which is far more important than one is blonde and the other brown. They have given their marriage the proper consideration: their families offer no rejections and their families are happy in their happiness. French Descent The Sproule is of French descent. The father is one of the leading photographers of New York City with studio, at West 35th street. The Petersones, who are of the Brooklyn elite, have lived a great deal in Europe and South America. Sidney Peterson, a graduate of later English and Dorothy Peterson is a teacher of Spanish in the public school system. Mr Peterson, sr., is a veteran newspaperman, and both daughter and son Sidney received his B.S. degrees from Syracuse university about four years ago, and after doing considerable research, he decided to study medicine. He and his wife are juniors at Columbia. To Finish Medicine. The young couple immediately planed to than the completing of their work in medicine. They have leased a charming apartment in West 113th street near the university when they met the wife and unsatisfiedly. They were quietly married July 18th to Deputy City Clerk Joseph McCormick at the university church, and very much impressed by their attitude one wishes to take toward their magnificent adventure. Groups War Against High Harlem Rents TWO HUSBANDS COMPLICATE DIVORCE BILL Much Married Wife in Court to Free Herself from Two Mates. ESCAPES BIGAMY Then Files Suit Against No. 1 Charging Cruelty. One of the most complicated marital skeins ever known here is being unraveled in Circuit Court as a result of the divorce proceedings of Mrs. Lillian F. Brooks-Alney-Brown, which started on its second day with the filing of a divorce suit against her first husband, Charles Alney, immediately after obtaining a decree of nullity from her second husband, George Brown, this week. The predicament of the much married wife was discovered several weeks ago after she had filed divorce papers and was sent to court clerk, digging down in the dusty files of the Circuit Court, found that she had obtained a bill of separation only from his uncle, and was, still his uncle, unmarried of Browns, whom she was seeking to divorce. Faced Blzamy Charze The discovery, which fell like a thunderbolt and which almost caused the wife's arrest on a charge of bigamy, caused her lawyer to file the decrees of her marriage to two and start directly out for an absolute divorce from husband No. 1. In her statement to the court, Mrs. Alney declared that, when some time ago she was divorced from husband No. 1, she understood that she was being divorced at the expiration of three years. But since a second divorce proceeding was never instituted, she was told that she was still the wife of her husband and had no right to marry Brown. Married in 1908 As Miss Lillian Brooks, she was married to Charles Aleyen on September 15, 1908, and the couple lived together until November 5, 1918. At this time, she says, she was married to a husband on account of cruelty. She filed a divorce suit and was given a partial divorce with custody of their three children. Married Again Then on October 15, 1924, believing that by virtue of the fact that more than three years had elapsed since her death, she was a free woman, she married George Brown. This second romance came to an end by November 1, 1925, when she says he became so cruel that she had to leave Extreme Cruelty In setting forth some of the cruel acts of husband No. 2, she declared that in order to make her suffer more pain, she demanded and describe amorous escapades and love affairs with other women. On one occasion, she said, she threatened her husband with a cut up $200 worth of her clothing. On June 20, she gave this and other testimony of cruelty before a special examiner and was granted the decree to have her husband give her absolute divorce petition against husband No. 1.

The young wife, who is an accomplished musician, has his interracial marriage came to light several days ago, but Newton saws he will follow her out West to the end of the world until he finds her. Newton also has been in hiding at the home of friends because, he says, father-in-law Ford is having detectives harass him in an effort to find grounds for annulling the marriage. "Her son says she can get out, but he can't get away with that." The young wife is believed to be out West. EVANGELIST ASSUMES TITLE AS 'ANGEL Co-ed Breathes "War Gas" in Chemistry Laboratory Washington Girl Second Victim of Accidents in Howard University Science Hall. WOMEN DIET FOR SMARTNESS TO FIND 'TIS SMART TO BE PLUMP Paris Declares Women's Figures Shall Show More Curves WASHINGTON, D.C. — (CNS.) Miss Julia Elaine Williams, popular daughter of Professor and Mrs. P. B. Williams, was painfully burned with free bromide gas in the chemistry laboratory in the Science Hall of Howard University. Miss Williams, a junior student at the University, was conducting an experiment in which the death-dealing gas, used extensively during the World War, was liberated. Williams permitted the poisonous fumes to escape which she inhaled, severely burning the tissues of her nose and bronchial passages, which were wet at the time, came in contact with the gas, setting up a reaction which resulted in serious burns on her hands and arms. Perhaps most serious of all, is the death of Miss Williams was treated at Freedman's Hospital. 'it was later removed to her home where she is now a member of Delta Sigma Theta sorority. Second Accident This is the second accident within two months in the science building, and it was the 22. of Philadelphia, Pa., a junior in the college of Pharmacy, had the tips of a bomb exploded in the chemical laboratory.

Patient Dr. Boyle Gets a Soda Clerks Serve Ex-ray Expert Who Insists That "It's Hot." The thermometer showed 96 degrees. Dr. E.

"It's hot," said Dr Boyle, "chocolate sundae." We don't serve colored people, answer the attendant. That's the rule. "It's hot," said Dr Boyle, patient. "I'm thirsty." A consultation was "you can't drink at the fountain," said the soda jerker. "I'm not interested in your fountain," said the doctor; "it's the soda." He hit it in a paper cup, stepped back six feet, drank, was refreshed, paid, walked out. The same thing was repeated at Neasha Baltimore street and Carrollton avenue store a few hours later. Dr Boyle said: "Any drug store ought to be glad to serve patrons who drink on a duv and not as Monday, whether he be black or white." WOMEN DIET FOR FIND 'TIS SMA Paris Declares Women's Figure D.C.

Plans Are to Reduce Fourteen Schools to Ten. WASHINGTON, D. C. (Special)—A.M.E. bishops, general officers and college presidents, meeting as an educational commission here Wednesday, voted to reduce the number of denominational schools from fourteen to ten. The list would include 4 senior colleges, 3 junior colleges, one university and two seminaries. The commission which met at the A.M.E. headquarters and Q.S. named an commission to complete the details and report when ready. Contemplated mergers must be approved by the trustees of the several colleges and the General Conference school. Reports showed Wilberforce O.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — (CNS.) — The fat woman who waddles is almost a sight unseen on the popular boulevards of Washington. Dusky maids and matrons are reducing. They are consuming crate after crate of grape fruit in their efforts to retain, regain, or approximate the slim boyish figure which has ruled the mode for several seasons. The famous Hollywood diet is now being used by hundreds of smart women, (and it, is whispered, a goodly number of men) with marked success. The diet, which consists mainly of grape-fruit, berries and watery vegetables, is necessary to prevent weakness, is actually causing several hundreds of pounds of excess avoiduplots (and several famous "bay-windows") to disappear, the average daily loss per air-air reducer being slightly less than plump. The fat are getting plump as the plump grow slender, and the long sought after, the sleek svette figure seems within the reach of all, without the weakness, fattiness of the plump, accompanied all former methods of reducing. The irony of it is unspeakable, and smart Washingtonians are just a bit ovrooked. But the result is to let the fallic tourists take care of themselves. --- VA. K. P. HEAD DIES ROANOKE, Va.

JIM-CROW JUDGES FROM SOUTH HIT BY LAGUARDIA Say Southerners Up on Junket Mete Out Justice According to Color. MAY DEFY G. O. P. To Run as Independent if Republicans Refuse Nomination. NEW YORK—Declar ing that he had asked Chief Justice Taft to keep out of New York Southern Federal judges who attempt to mete out justice according to the colors of a man's skin, Representative Fiorello H. LaGuardia electrified a meeting of the Young People's Lyceum here Sunday. In his speech, which was a part of his campaign to win the Republican nomination for mayor, Representative La Guardia, referring to Southern federal judges sent up from the South, as "jim-crow judge up, here, on a junkt who don't understand New York and have strong feelings against certain races and creeds." Gets Endorsement With hundreds of voters present, a resolution, engineered by Alderman John G. Hawkins and Colonel Charles A. Filmore, white, endorsed the Representative for candidate for Alabama. It was also intimated that if the Republicans in session here this week fail to give La Guardia the nomination he will enter the race as an independent. If this is done, leaders say he will get the bulk of the race vote in Harlem. He will go to Chief Justice Taft was dated July 20th. It is, in part, as follows: Letter to Taft "I desire to call your attention to a condition which, if not remedied, may eventually place Federal law in an impossible ant predicament. Protest Texas Jurist "It was not so very long ago that the conduct of one judge (Judge William H. Atwell, of Texas) was so outrageous. I believed that the Bar Association of Brooklyn was compelled to file a protest against his conduct and against the reassignment of that particular judge to the eastern dis- Arkansan Scored "Judge John E. Martineau of Arkansas only a few days ago gave another exhibition of lack restraint and unjudicial conduct and unbecoming racial prejudice. "A colored man was on trial, charged with some crime in a verdict of not guilty. Judge Martineau questioned each individual juror why he acquitted the defendant. "Most of the jurors informed the defendant that they caused they did not believe the Government's witnesses and that they did not believe that the defendant was guilty of alleged crime was committed. The judge then and so scaled and abused the jury and subjected them to the humiliation of discharging them from a jury duty in the Federal courts." Best Citizens "Federal jurors in New York City are drawn from the business and professional men. They invariably serve at great personal sacrifice. The judge had them as he did." "Apparently some judges cannot understand a white jury acquitting a colored defendant. Not Wanted "The color of a man's skin would seem to be a presumption of his guilt. Such administration of justice is not understood and not wanted in New York." The presumption of innocence, the requirement of proving a criminal case beyond a reasonable doubt, the jury being the sole judge of the facts, are fundamentals in our society, jurisprudence and in State law. They are applicable to all, regardless of their color, race or creed. Joe Lewis Out With Broken Leg PHILADELPHIA.

And so the war between high-highway and now low-merry on until the autumn days send them back to the cities where barbed-wire fences, dry raiders, and communicating streets are not an issue. THREE-CORNERED FIGHT. The fight to exclude those termed undesirable may be eclipsed by a three-cornered fight over ownership of the beach. Haley Douglass has claimed ownership. His brother, Joseph Douglass, noted violinist, asserting ownership of the beach. The latter may resort to the courts for settlement of the question. FAMILY FIGHT. Joseph and Haley Douglass were of the same faction until recently. Their father, the late Major Charles Douglass, son of the great Frederick Douglass, was the owner of Highland Beach. While he was working for the Government, he found it advisable to transfer the property to Joe, that time the land had not been platted. After meeting the Major Douglass, Joe transferred the property to his father. The land had been platted, but the decision did not include the beach and certain beaches in his will, giving it to Haley. Joe claims that the will did not pass the beach to Haley because title to it was in him. Legal minds claim that the beach is devoted to people use regardless of whether Haley or Joe own it. Haley Douglass was recorded shooting at front and lots were sold with reference to it and related to decisions of Maryland courts, the beach is devoted to public use as an avenue, and the beach can not be sold in its entirety except to the municipality.

GASTONIA TRIALS Communist Spoke to Crowd in Protest of Exploitation. Race workers gathered to hear Dominic Fliaana, Comm unist Party organizer and others protest the holding of the Gastonia trial in that city, jeered police who arrested them at Monument street and Bond streets, Monday night. Flalana was charged with disturbing the peace and obstructing free passage, but the officers arresting him admitted that he was arrested because of things he was saying. He was arrested to distribute Rhode Islander Tuesday morning. Appeal General Communists here are pointing out that the Gastonia trial, the first real workers' uprising below the Mason and Dixon line which would have a profound bearing on the race question, is important to both races and all workers. For the first time in the mill industries in the South there had grown up a situation which brought home a white whistle and a call for open cooperation with colored workers to secure protection from exploitation, common to both. Organizing Here For some time Flatana has been meeting with groups here and plans for reaching large numbers of race workers have been made. In a state statement, "The Negro masses, are the most exploited section of the working class. The Negro workers are discriminated against by the imperialist the rulling class. The Black, White, Yellow workers are oppressed in the struggle against the imperialists war. For the war of the workers against the rulling class for the freedom of the oppressed workers.

WASHINGTON—That the Wickersham proposal would turn the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment over to various states may work to revive the enforcement of the Thirteenth. Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments is the opinion of leaders here. Clinton in Rochester, the chair of the National Committee for Law Enforcement, asserts that the Wickersham plan for enforcement "means that the Constitution will operate in these states which may approve it, and become null and void in the states which choose to exercise their concurrent power to enforce, as power to nullify Another charges that "such an arrangement would amount to repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment in net localities." At any rate, this seems to be the opinion of several of the leaders, who believe that, with the departure of the Law enforcement upon the enforcement, the Law can no longer hope that through the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment, consistency might lead to the enforcement the amendments which will give rights to millions of American citizens.

It must so, we shall peacefully submit to arrest in order to have the courts inform you what are our rights; but resass assert that we are ours as other people use it. The N. A. A. C. P. letter then calls attention to an attack made upon three of the 44th because they went to a part of the beach where the guard thought they should not have gone. "We feel that we have been patient and have endured much. We shall not annoy you with such insults or desire but please be advised that the National Association never fights except for the rights of citizens, and that the court of law resort has passed upon the issue. The outcome of the case is being watched with interest because of the other New Jersey beach resorts. It is the feeling that had Negroes maintained a united front against discrimination or the present issue would never have arisen.

Social, Economic Ambitions Lead to Crossing the Color Line "Our Own Jealously Guarded Segregation Is Myth," Admits White Writer. "Passing for White" Justified. NEW YORK—"There is no color line for many colored people. Our own jealously guarded segregation is a myth," wrote Emile Hahn in the New York World Sunday. She says: "I remember that when I was a child in the St. Louis public schools there was a red-haired girl in my class who kept very much to herself. One day a rumor spread that her mother was a Negress, and that the authorities had just discovered it. For two or three days the little boys spent the recess hour chanting "Nigger! Nigger!" and then she disappeared. Hueston Not Interested in Higher Elk Office GARY, Ind.-Judge William C.

Judge Hueston said his only desire is to succeed himself as educational commissioner. "I do not know if she attended the Negro school thereafter; it was two or three miles from her house. But she was in the house and some way, ultimately, of leaving her environment and living more comfortably elsewhere. COLOR LINE CAN BE RECROSSED "Some years ago, in the West, I knew a boy who looked like a Spanlord. I was not aware that he was a Negro, although as a matter of fact he never denied it. He never spoke of such things. He was very quiet; he said he could come to him when he mixed with white people and no one thought of questioning him. At last he disappeared and for several years I heard no more of him. The next time I saw him he was a Negro and had allied himself with Negro propagandists. He has ever again tried to pass his life to a Negro, and certainly get away with it. I suppose he did it for several years trying to make up his mind which he would be and then a pride of race swung the balance. It is somewhat inconsistent to speak of race pride in the West, but more white than Negro. But one drop of Negro blood settles the matter in the mind of the American. REPORTER TURNS WHITE. "There was a reporter on a Middle Western newspaper at the same time that my brother worked there, and they became friends with both left the paper and my brother's friend went to another city, where he continued his newspaper work. He has become mildly successful and more or less well known. I have only lately discovered that he is, according to the author, started to 'pass' when he came to the Western town on business. He had often tried to write for publication, but had no success until he sold a story to a local paper. He did not say that he was a Negro and the editor was enthusiastic about work, offering such immediately. "Why not? He took it and has since lived as a white man, without even changing his name, married a white woman, South Africa, is likely that he has qualms at times. He is not unknown, and many Negroes are aware of his masquerade, but such cases are an old story to them. They will LINE BLURRED BEYOND REGGNITION "I if have happened on such cases how many more are probably in existence? There must be many people whose positions in the white world are firmly entrenched. Our whole idea of segregation is based on one line of difference. At first there was a definite position between white and black. With increasing descent the position the dividing white and whites were distinguished from all other people by the expedient of putting together all those with any black blood and labeling them Negroes. TWO EXTREMES "Now, after some generations of confusion, there are two extremes the white and the black, of pure direct descent. In between is a rapidly growing company of people who represent the mixture in all possible proportions. There more reason to call Negro than to all them whites, distinction between the full-blooded Negro and the mulatto does not exist in the mind of the white man, who ciaims that it is so obscure as to be imperceptible. "The same rule can work the other way. Where the difference between a white and light Negro is imperceptible, it is only natural not to a distinction will be ignored by an individual who will profit by stepping across the line and jining the privileged race. Our own leaouxury guarded segregation is a myth." P. A.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER Race Superiority An cause that has to be continually apologized or bolstered up by reiteration is certainly in bad way. Our white friends contend that they are a superior race. Well, perhaps, that must be. And for the sake of argument we will admit that it is so. Then why is it necessary to be nl- If a thing is superior, it will demonstrate that fact of itself. It does not take the general public long to discriminate between that which is good and that which is inferior. It is not necessary for the government to emphasize that a silver dollar is superior to a lead dollar. If our fellow citizens, the so-called Anglo-Saxons, are a superior race, it will be demonstrated without a word from them. Four Weeks JULY 6—Complaints that the street railway company was refusing to haul colored passengers on its auto bus lines in Baltimore led the AFROMICAN to request Mr. Raymond Thompkins, assistant to the United Railways' president, to make a statement as to the company's policy towards colored passengers. Mr. Thompkins, presumably after conference with President Emmons, declined to issue any statement. Reporters sent to ride the busses were challenged in two cases and barred in three others. JULY 13—"Tell colored people they can't ride, but don't put them off." Conductor 29, of bus 51, Mr. Royal avenue line, told AFRO reporters he had received these instructions from Mr. Thompkins and President Emmons. No AFRO reporters barred from busses during the week. One advised to take a street car. Mr. Thompkins stated that no order to bar colored bus passengers had been issued. JULY 20—One conductor "bluffed" reporter by putting his hand over the bus. No others distracted from bus riding. JULY 27—Delegation of Baptist pastors interviewed United's President Emmons, who made this statement: "We are brothers. The busses are operated for the public, and you are a part of the public. We need your business. There are no regulations either one way or the other. If anything happens in the future and you will let me know, I will have it corrected." Respect-f-u-l "Why, I like them; I always have and I always will. I've been superintendent of the Sunday school of the Methodist Temple for a good many years and many colored people, men, women and children, come to our services. They are always respectful and interested in what is going on and I like to have them around." Thus spoke the head of white Protestant laymen of Chicago recently when asked what he colored people. Stuart Woods came from a Christian legier who might be expected to look for Christian virtues—faith, hope, love. Instead, Chicago's great apostle of Christ finds in black folk that they are interested (able to take part) and that they are respectful to white folk. From New Orleans, Houston, Atlanta, Montgomery, or even Richmond and Baltimore, little else can be expected from our white folks; but Chicago, with its banks, its business and Congressman, ought to produce a slightly better grade of U. S. Christianity. Had our Christian Knight of the West averred that he found his black brother respectable or of good repute, some of us might be persuaded that he had made some investigation, however But when he says that he has found Negroes respectful—hat-in-hand, on their knees, kissing the hem of our white folks' garments and deferring to them—we marvel at his blindness, and we wonder. Christian though he be, if he isn't lying. The Elks Will Buy a Building The rise and fall of the fraternal dance hall is accurately described by Mr. Elmer Carter in July Opportunity magazine. Mr. Carter tells how lodges in many cities purchase buildings costing from $50,000 to $500,000. The lodges are of dance halls and offices which invariably prove insufficient over long periods. Eventually lodge treasuries are drained to meet interest and taxes. Depreciation sets in. "A beautiful edifice is reduced to a dirty, unkempt pile of brick and stone. The lodges stave out the increasing burdens of mortgages and taxes. They put the property or lose it and the earnings of large numbers of Negroes are irretrievably lost." In every city, we have such giant fraternal buildings, half-completed, plastered with mortgages, used by the dance hall managers until a newer and showier auditorium attracts aickle funds. Not a single fraternal hall in Baltimore but boasts of the frequency with which its auditorium is rented for dancing. Hardly one pays dividends. Of course there is nothing wrong with a dance, but is that a sufficient and worth-while task for two hundred men and women to devote their savings to-relate, providing promoters with a dance hall? Mr. Carter says the race must learn that the rules of investment cannot be flouted even by fraternal orders. That the same funds invested in public utility stocks and bonds, or in 6 per cent housing projects for the poor, such as those fostered by Rosenwald and Rockefeller, by fraternal orders would bring far better financial returns and be of more importance to the community. Lodges without proper business leadership continue to oppose the proper investment instead of the proper investment of their money. The local Elks are soon to purchase a $30,000 home. Its chief recommendation is that it has the finest dance hall in town and is rented for the entire year. Real leadership must rescue our lodges from future poverty and bankruptcy. All of them need not repeat the bitter experiences of the "Please say something about bare legs. Are we going straight to the devil?" -R. Wesley Jones, Washington, D. C. Clothing has nothing to do with morals. In Genesis, it is written: "Thee were both naked the man and his wife, and were not ashamed." Many unencultivated African tribes whose winter suit consists of a girdle or a string of beads, practice sex morality far beyond anything in our American communities. Japanese men and women bathe together without clothing and find difficult to understand our prudery. Clothing covers up a multitude of defects that nakedness will expose. Fewer clothes will make us give more attention to our bodies as temples of the soul. Some day, we'll realize that Adam and Eve knew few things about clothes after all, and that manaked was made in God's image. "Know your United States Constitution," says Oscar DePriest, Illinois Congressman, "and you have made the first step toward securing your rights." We recommend the DePriest declaration to Charles Wilson, 16, Emanuel Whiting and James Williams, two other boys, said by police to constitute the gang which has robbed peanut, candy, and chewing gum machines. At the Northwestern police station these boys were held by Mr. Justice Johannsen in $500 bail each for each of the ten charges. The total bail for each boy was $3,000 and for the three boys, $15,000. The petty larceny involved hardly amounted to $256. The crime is larceny not highway robbery or burglary. Or the crime is United States Constitution is specific. The Eighth Amendment declares: "Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted." Do the parents of these boys know what is excessive bail and that such bail is expressly forbidden by the Constitution? A New Member of the Radical Bloc Healthy dissatisfaction with existing conditions is always a sign of progress. The eager, burning desire for something better is the motive power which drives discoverers of new knowledge, inventors of new machinery and builders of business. The desire for a disease is found, the power of lightning controlled, and the swamp land changed into a thriving community, we stare with open mouths and hold our breaths not being able to account for such marvelous progress. Dissatisfaction must therefore often be associated with ambition and aspiration, the stuff of which ploneers, prospectors, and revolutionaries are made. Daisy Woodward, who resigned his deanship at Howard University to do research work in mathematics, said last week that our colleges are in a rather "crude state," that they are "twenty-five years behind" and that "instead of looking down and seeing how far we have come, rather we should look up and see how far we've got to go." Daisy Woodward's views except his last, the AFRO-AMERICAN is in accord. We prefer to look backward sometimes to see if any progress has been made. So far as our colleges are concerned, progress has been rapid, if not completely satisfying. The crude state of today represents an improvement of 100 per cent over that of twenty-five years ago. Looking back further back, sixyears ago, looking back further back, sixyears ago, there only few but were hardly good grammar schools. Dr. Woodard's Philadelphia speech qualifies him, we suspect, for membership in the Radical Bloch. He finds there distinguished company, including Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Mr. Marc Garvey, Dr. Mordeal Johnson, the Davies bad boys (Allison and John P.), Mr. Lewis K. Marianne, Mr. Eugene Gordon, and Mr. Lauten Hugh, Mr. Eugene Gordon, and last but not least, Mr. Oscar DePriest. Minister's Wife "I did not complain when the roof leaked."—Black Snake.—"That dried beans like sin, but I ate them because they did not cost much."—District Superintendent. To the Editor: My husband, myself and child were sent as human chains, chained that he been sick and alling for years. People who have been living here for years say it has never been strong enough to support a family. Indeed, my husband served here when he first entered the mines and was just a little stronger than it is now. For many years one woman by her devotion and loyalty has kept a few discouraged members of the school superintendent, secretary, treasurer and everything that it takes to keep a week church together, but this woman could not live forever—she was over sixty—and we arrived about the time she usually applies some one to sit up with the sick. CHARGED WITH MURDER. So my husband was the unfortunate victim to catch this dying church in his arms as it went down the street. The matter was not found with the dead church in his arms? Many men have been hung on circumstantial evidence! There have been times when four dollars and two cents would not have worried the poor minister but today with the high cost of food, it takes more than faith to satisfy the hunger of the family. WEAK WOMEN DIE. As long as men forget that they were only able to climb the heights by God's help and the assistance of their brothers, you can expect that they would not have worried the poor minister in the face of his brother struggling up behind him, and when that brother is forced to cry out against such unfair leadership, he is sent with his wife and children to places we weak women cannot reach. They forget that the same God made us all, and that the wife and children in the lowly parsonage would like to enjoy the life that he gave without men coming as slave drivers to take from their lives the little joy that they would have.

I have been willing to sacrifice, labor, and not complain when the only house that could reclaim it was ours. We were old log one built fifty years ago by an ex-slave, even when the rain poured through the roof like a sieve, where the cold winds of winter forced me to prepare. I could not see the outdoor yard. I could even be happy! I forced myself to overcome the terror that possessed me when my little girl pointed in the grass where a long black snake—measuring over a feet had crawled from the under small moth. I know that only the all-seeing eye of God looked down one Saturday night on a heart-string God was among those that could not understand why men could be so cruel—sent the man with a heart full of sympathy and money to pay one week's rent and buy food for the coming Sunday. God was among those that could not complain when the only house that could be rented for a parsonage was an old log one built fifty years ago by an ex-slave, even when the rain poured through a roof that was soaked. I did not complain for me to prepare my meals dressed in my outdoor garments. I could even be happy! I forced myself to overcome the terror that surrounded me, grass where a long black snake—measuring over five feet had crawled from under the small porch.

To the Editor: The humanitarian and philosopher; Heywood Brown, under the caption, "It Seems to Me," in the Washington Daily, a newspaper that appeared in an Alabama mourning the passing of a certain Jim Swift, an old faithful butler in the Mallory family, strikes a very significant note in the following statement: "It is beside the point to ask a colored man of our generation to behave as if he belonged to a social order which has entirely Mr. Brown also called attention to a New York Times editorial which reviewed the Southern editorial, at the same time bewailing the fact that Negroes were not the majority of the Jim Swifts, Mr. Broun is justified in believing that the New York Times writer was from the South.

But do we find for every new Negro, a new white man—the new white man who is a superiority complex, which trembles at the more suggestion of the facts; the new white man who will not only be unsympathetic with the Blease-Heffin combine, but will not send such brain churns to Congress who will be the laughing stock of other nations?

An Open Letter to the Baptist Minsters' Conference of Baltimore: To the Editor: I see in last week's issue that a committee of the Baptist Ministers' Conference interested themselves sufficiently in the campaign to ride the UNITED S BUSSES to take several trips themselves and to call them to the other campaigns waged by the APRO for civic improvement in which these leaders were strangely silent. How comes it they awaken suddenly? When part of the daily press began a campaign a few months ago, many business leaders stated that the statements by false and misleading statements and referred to the colored people of this city as "kitchen mechanics," where was the Ministers' Conference? Brown's Grove and the steamer Avalom are part of a race enterprise, giving employment to the people of this city, and is unfair to the community. Did they appoint a committee to investigate as did two of our churches, and after finding out the facts, call them to the attention of our people. Did they, as the president of the memorial committee, offending daily paper? Harvey Johnson, William M. Alexander and John Murphy, Sr., are dead. Speaking for the laymen of the city, we demand present-day leaders to fill their shoes or get out of the way. Where do they get their support from? CAPTAIN GEORGE W. BROWN, Baltimore, Md. The Hopeless South. The Mob is Effective Despite the Muskets. To the Editor: Press reports of July 22nd inform us that the governor of Alabama was sending picked men from the National Guard to "protect the Negro at any hazard." He is expected to be indicted for the murder of a white man and assaulting a white woman. The governor of a state has got to send soldiers to protect a lone Negro, it tends to show how well organized they are in their hate against the black man.

Survey of the Training of College Presidents is Suggested by Student of Johnson C. Smith University. To the Editor: A survey of the training of teachers in Negro colleges is frequently made. Nobody has yet made a survey of the training of the presidents of these colleges not? Such a study would be certain interesting. It cannot be disputed that to make a first class college the president ought to be a man of the highest training and culture. I have recently looked into the question of the education and training of the presidents of some colleges and I have followed interesting facts about their education: It cannot be college the pretest trainin looked into the test have the follo education: the president vania, holds a dent of Morga college the p: the president has an A.M. it the president Brown University has a Ph.D. from Co Ph.D. from have an A.M. It cannot be disputed that to make a first class college the president ought to be a man of the highest training and culture. I have recently looked into the question of the president of some colleges and I have the following interesting facts about their education: The president of Lincoln University, Pennsylvania, holds a PhD. from Princeton; the president of Morgan College has a PhD. from some college; the president of the University of A.M. has the president of Shaw University has an A.M. from Chicago University. The president of Morehouse has degrees from Brown University; the president of Atlanta University has a Ph.D.; the president of Fisk is a Ph.D. from Colgate; the president of Kittrell has an A.M. from Chicago University. The president of Lincoln University, Pennsylvania, holds a PhD. from Princeton; the president of Morgan College has a PhD. from some college; the president of Howard has an A.M. from Harvard; the president of the University has a PhD. from University. The president of Morehouse has degrees from Brown University; the president of Atlanta University has a PhD.; the president of Fisk is a PhD. from Columbia; the president of Talladega has a Master's degree; the president of Kittrell school has a Master's degree. The president of Johnson C. Smith University has an academic education, which is the equivalent of about two years beyond high school. These college presidents may be put in three groups according to training: 1. The presidents of Lincoln, Morgan, Atlanta, and Kittrell school. 2. The president of the highest academic degree granted by American colleges. 3. In group two are the presidents of Howard, Shaw, Morehouse, Kittrell and Talladega. 3. The president of Johnson C. Smith brings up the rear in the third group and appears to be the president of large colleges of the East. Southeast. The rating agencies may not set any standard for college presidents; they may not require them to have a PhD. or an A.M. nor even an A.B., but it is a fact that no college can win a place of educational leadership in this modern world.

A poorly trained president cannot get and keep the respect of a highly trained faculty. When faculty members in conversation find the group unresponsive, it tends to demoralization, and disorganization; and friction will inevitably arise. Intelligence will not be directed by ignorance. This is the reason for such frequent turnovers in the faculty. It is said that the wife of the president of Johnson C. Smith University called in a member of the faculty one day and told him that the young men should have patience with the president, because he had not had their opportunities and had been poorly trained. And some one was harsh enough to say: "Well, then, he ought to resign." But why talk about the president's failure, wife resign, for she might the scandal Richmond, Va. College bred Negroes must no longer satisfy their supercilious vanity by reveling in their academic conceit. They must rather crowd in on the arena and take hold of the mass life of the race. They must take leadership in the development of the vast economic, industrial, religious, social and moral estate. In this way only will wisdom be justified of her children. College-Bred Leadership By KELLY MILLER The current issue of the Crisis contains its usual annual analysis of the higher educational activities of the race. Negroes are rushing into college and university in unwonted numbers, yielding a list of graduates which would have been undreamed of even a decade ago. The contingent of Negro students in Northern colleges is rapidly increasing. There are, today, probably more Negro students of full collegiate grade, regardless of race. Negroes could be found in all colored colleges twenty years ago. The standards are advancing to keep pace with the educational progress of the times. Colored students are more ambitious to call themselves colleges, had only faculties and facilities for adequate high school work. But everywhere equipment, faculty and facilities of instruction are measuring up standard collegiate requirements. Old Division Passing The old silly division as to higher and industrial education has happily passed away. Hampton and Tuskegee are now ambitious to assume rank among the leading Negro colleges and universities. These two schools are already adequately endowed to insure permanence. Howard, Fisk, Atlanta, and the rest are entering upon a new era of prosperity with assurance of opportunities to carry on and carry up the work of instruction on the higher level. Higher Opportunities. But our rejoicing must be tempered with a word of caution. Wisdom is justified of her children. The school is justified of her work. These college men and women have almost recruited to capacity many of the higher opportunities of the race. The professional ranks of the school are attractive to attractive teachers in teaching, medicine and law are fairly well filled. Less inviting and attractive places still await replaces by the requisite men and women with the requisite conservation and spirit of sacrifice. The Christian ministry alone can absorb half the output for decades to come. But importantly, where the volunteer laborers are fewest. Leadership and Guidance. We naturally look to the higher education to produce leadership and wise guidance for the masses. In all respects, the leadership of this expectation has been fulfilled in the degree that was once hoped and claimed. The leadership of the race, in many important lines, is still in need of a new leader with energy, enterprise and initiative, often without a technical liberal education. No colored man takes rank with B.B. Weldon in Wales, and no influence which he imparted to the educational thought, opinion and programs of his day and generation, and the day and generation ensuing. Dr. R. R. Moton stands second to none in politics, we find that many of our most outstanding conspicuous leaders fall without the pale of the collegiate fraternity. Mr. Walter Cohen, Emmett Scott, Oscar DePriest, rank with, or above, any like number of technical collegians in the domain of political journalism. Mr. Walter Cohen will hold their own with Robert Vann and Carl Murphy, their collegiate counterparts. Among Women. Among the women, Madam Walker, Mary Bethune, Nannie Burroughs, and their ability to do things among the womanhood of the race. S. W. Rutherford quit the plow handles and arose into a successful yet attained by the race. When it comes to organizing the masses in coherent and efficient working units, the college man has not so far shown off to any conspicuous advan- Creative Output. But one more specification, and I desist from this comparison, not for want of material but for lack of knowledge of the Negro intelligence as expressed by creative output, the college man does not always come out first best. Of the creative writers listed in Dr. Loeck's book, the most "New Negro," quite a majority hold no collegiate degrees. Of the twelve colored members of the trustee board of Howard university, only one is a graduate, and that one is a apprentice. I am not unmindful of the formidable array of collegiate celebrities which might be listed to match the illustrations herein set forth. My main purpose is to teach students to better themselves the vast opportunities which lie before them. College education cannot give ability, energy, enterprise or initiative. These are inborn. But the advantages of college culture affords the best environment for such students. The parisons are odious or odorous according as they wound or tickle the vanity Mass Life of Race. College bred Negroes must no longer satisfy their supercilious vanity by the mere act of playing. They must rather crowd in on the arena and take hold of the mass life membership in the social life in the economic, industrial, religious, social and moral estate. In this way only wisdom be justified of her children. Chips from the Quarry 113 Treat the lays a million eggs.

Stomach Ache The many friends of Mr. John Henry Ford are pleased to know that he is improving after surviving from a severe injury, which round their way into the abdomen. The Sapps. Bill Sapp, according to last week's AFRO, is suing his wife, Gertie, for running around with other men, and trying to make a sap out of him. Also the AFRO tells me that Emma Trott trotted off and left her husband, Maurice, two years ago, and he trotted to Roy Boud for a murder when he suffered misery when he says his wife entered the Armond Hotel with a gentleman friend, but we promise to take the ladies for better or worse. Dead Man Lives. "Dead man, with hole in heart lives long enough to reach hospital." Unusual Vitality. The above headline, though written FOR the AFRO, did not actually get into print in that form. However, the following headline did appear in the Washington Daily News (released on Oars Seven Days). (P.S.-The story under the headline says "seven HOURS.") Home, Sweet Home. Two added verses of "Home, Sweet Home," written by John Howard Payne in 1829 and unpublished since appeared last week. They follow: To us, in despite of the absence of years, How sweet th' remembrance of home still **Speakl** From glaureus abroad which but datter the eye. The unstained heart turns and says with a sigh: There's house! Sweet, sweet home! There's no place like home! There's no place like home! Your enlist is blest with all fate can bestow— But mine has been chequered with many a woe. You though different our fortunes, our thoughts are the same. And both, as we dream of Columbus, ex- claim: There's house! Sweet, sweet home! There's no place like home! There's no place like home!

Leaving their wives at home, sprightly Knights of Pythias cavorted at Cambridge, Md., last week in university newsroom. Excepting Mrs. Roy Bond, who accompanied her keynote-speech-making hubby, and Mrs. John Hayes, wives were as scarce as her son's teeth. Hayes, Dr. Harry Brown, Dr. Charles Power, Samuel T.

By Pellicia Blake) A fool there was, and she lowered her pride To a bunch of conect in a masculine hide—We saw the faults that could not be denied. But the fool saw only his manly side. Oh, the love she laid on her own heart's grave. With all of her head and hand. Belongs to the man who did not know (And now she knows that he never could). Of noble thoughts, of gay and grave (And all were accepted as due to the knave) Beware of the holy solvare (Even as you and 3), the Lord of forbid. The stabs she hid, which the Lord forbid. She been really planned. She took from the man who didn't know why. She knew she knows he never knew why, And did not understand. And it isn't the ache of the heart, or its break That stings like a white hot brand— It's learning to know that she raised the rod. And bent her head to kiss the rod For one who could not understand.

Isaiah 5:17. Africans Say: "Africans have much in common with us as wil and expelled in their probs show. It is time to get away from the notion that they are not Africans. In more than one sense, we Americans are less civilized and more barbaric than they." C. J. BENDER. Day by Day By William N. Jones Some Interesting Figures. According to Mrs. Daisy Lee Worchester, white, University of California economist, if the salari- age and income of men and women in America were equally distributed in unit families of five each such family would receive $375 per year. Andords the total salary and income of Americans, $850, 000,000,000 or about $745 for each man woman and child in the United States. Here is an interesting question? Would there be more happiness, less suffering, and service, would the average life be long? If it were possible for all families to receive $375,250 per year instead of the present condition where some $755 per year and some $375- 000? A question of this kind will sound Bolshevik to most of us who beware: the right to get as much of the world to come as he can take within the law. Some day we will no more feel this way about it than we that it is right for human beings to have slaves. There are some people who act against them, and that it is right for salaries and incomes in this capitalistic system gives each man and woman the same chance to become a Rockefeller or Morgan, or even every family of five people in this country to receive $3,728 per year, taking five nice red apples and them among ten children so that each child will have a whole apple. Almost any business day some man goes on Wall street, or on the stock market in any American city and leaves $10,000-$10,000 in his pocket. He has done nothing of the kind. Not a penny is produced on Wall street. It comes from the toll of men grinding their lives out in ponds on Mississippi farmland and women in sweat shops and factories in Gastonia and other Carolina towns. Garbage Can Of the thousands of babies born last week in this prosperous American country, one baby found its place in a garage in Baltimore. Terrible. you will muse, that there still exist female beings who would dump their new-born off animals, animals, perhaps not even the hena, would do that. A city garbage collector, noticing a package moving, fished it out of the attic and maintained a living two-day-old baby; and at the founding asylum where it was taken, it is said it is normal, none for its experience; and still live. There is one thing at least to be thankful for: we have made enough progress toward proper restraints on human beings its right to live and hence to provide for it. It will probably be interesting to check up thirty-five years from today and find the baby which was dumped into the garage can has made for himself. While this unfortunate infant was barely missing being deprived of seeing the light of the world, thousands of other babies were being born in different circumcisions, in different batteries of specialists, trained nurses and tender parents, may mean much less to the world than this wail. Chances are against him at present; so were they against Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington. He was the most great deal in this world where you start. It does matter a great deal where you end. You can get excellent food for thought in the present controversy at Highland Beach — now, no doubt, Europe's most famous beach. Here was a spot where Washington and Baltimore society discovered a retreat where they might enjoy themselves in the exclusive society, which makes money and achievement worth while. So far so good. Here also was a place, though some business men, where money could be made legitimately and where you could witness bountiful social lights and those seeking pleasure with you can mingle with the smart set and enjoy the companionship of the great and near great. You will perhaps be bold enough to analyze it thus plainly but there is little doubt to the honest observer that there are people at Highland Beach who want to limit its use to their own set; there are people being there is the desire to make money, and there are many who go there because of its supposed exclusiveness and the all-too-nuanced desire to mingle with the exclusive. All of these are licentate reasons; they are not only licentate, but all of them are the vital human resources with have motivated human progress. Perhaps it would give all of us a better understanding of the thing we generally term racial prejudice, and perhaps it would give kind of course, but the kind which instinctively impels human beings and grouns to seek to hold such prejudice in our minds, come to realize and understand just how this same kind of prejudice is playing its part in our own advancement—or our retardation. We are all members of ourselves in achievement and acquisition above the masses, would prefer their offspring to mingle with, to mate with and finally to mate with, to acquire similar achievement. THAT. HOWEVER IS PREJUDICE PURE AND SIMPLE. It is the same in all of us, and there are some races themselves, so each On the other hand, it is a perfectly laudable instance, for people more humbly born and have acquired less, to feel the human touch and to seek to so assert themselves. It is this kind of biologically controlled ambition which makes human genius and individual accomplishment more important, the largest and best little Cherokee rose and isolating it. Luther Burbank produced the great American Beauty rose. On the other hand over empathy, the tree and social status may reach foolish proportions — may become snobber. The best way is t. set up social standards and requirements, and all who can, to make the trade. Highland Reach, a little incident in itself, therefore gives us a good chance to view our own human tendencies and—in the case of human tendencies within ourselves which we have lambasted in others.

The dead youth is William McCoy, 18, 1138 Woodyear street, who was fatally shot by Lorenzo Johnson, 16, 723 School street, Friday. According to information, Johnson was sitting on the front steps of his home when he noticed five youths, members of a gang, friends of another youth with whom he had engaged in an altercation over a young woman, approaching him. On hearing one of the boys say, "There he is now," Johnson shot in the crowd four times. One of the bullets struck young McCoy, in the forehead. The injured youth was taken to the Provident Hospital in a passing automobile, where he was pronounced dead. Dr. R. Neblett on arrival examination showed that the bullet had entered his forehead and plowed its way to the base of the boy's brain. Johnson escaped after the fatal shooting, but was later captured by Sergeants Edward Coughlin and Oscar Koch of the Northwestern district as he was driving towards Union Station in the machine of a member of his gang.

MOUND BAYOU REPLIES YES! Mississippi's All-Negro Town Is One of the Dramatic and Unique Features of the United States. It Was Established 42 Years Ago and Has Developed into a Town of Growing Power and Achievement. When a handful of enterprising Negroes with vision and determination, founded the all-Negro town of Mound Bayou, in Mississippi, everybody expected its early downfall. Such remarks as these were constantly encountered by the young pioneers: "Negroes can't rule themselves!" They won't 'pull together'; "The town will fail in five years." Well, Mound Bayou is still alive and kicking—joking high at that. The Founders. The first plans for establishing Mound Bayou as a real town were laid by Isaiah T. Montgomery, a former slave, and his cousin, Benjamin T. Green, July 12, 1887. These two hardy and farsighted Negroes purchased one thousand acres of land from the L.N.O. and T. Railroad Company, and with their heroic families, pitched their tents upon their new acquisition. At that time this part of Mississippi was a vast wilderness—not even a shack was in sight. Two Intrepid Hunters. For companionship, the Montgomery and Greens were forced to contour the mountains, dear, wolves, wildcats and carcasses. Of course the animals were loathe to part with the sovereignty of this wilderness, hence the battle of the man and beast was waged. It is unnecessary to point out the victors. Moreover it is conceded that Green and Montgomery were two of the most intrepid hunters who entered the Mississippi Valley; and that their kill with the rifle was unexplained. The Little Community Receives Its First Sorrow Amidst the progress and happiness around the efforts of these pigs, fell the first sorrow. Benjamin Green, one of the co-founders, was killed by a worthless tramp over a trivial matter. This sudden blow re-dened those hard folk, for they realized fully the loss of their great lead- The battle with the Mississippi animals having been won, it was not too difficult to gun and cypress began to fall before the swing of the aze-men. In the evening places of strong timber, Wells were driven to supply fresh water in the place of spring water in the cypress forest. The only available water supply. The Origin of the Name Mound Bavou The original two families had now grown into a colony of respectable individuals. What question? What shall we call our new judgment? The answer was obvious. There early settlers had undergone such hardship in overcoming the numerous mounds and bayous that abounded near the site of the embryonic community. So with a unanimous gusto, the name "Mound Bayou" was adopt- Fiveers Are Organized Into Home Oringing Community Montgomery and Green then began to organize the pioneers into a home-owning community. A portion of the original thousand acres purchased by the founders was divided into town lots and sold to the settlers on long stretches of land. The company was to secure from the railroad company, farmland upon long leases. The Carnegie Dr. Bunker's Ana By DR. M.

Mound Bayou is Incorporated The situation became, however, an entirely favorable one, consequently in 1888 the town, as incorporated, bought the concession to a founder, elected its first mayor. There are now between 1,000 and 1,500 people in the incorporated town. In what is called the Mound Bayou Community, there are around 3,000 Negro men and women. The Bustl ness Organizations The progress of these people is exemplified in the extent of their business organizations.

Mc The Problem Unfort Have you a puzzling love affair? Write to Julia Jerome, car a personal reply, please send a Julia Jerome Out of Philadelphia this week comes a delicate question. My dear Mrs. Jerome: I am in a very tragic position. The man I love is married to a woman who, years ago, was put in an institution for the insane. There is no hope that she will ever be cured. My sweetheart, for many reasons, religious as well as personal, cannot divorce her. As I respect his wishes it will be years perhaps before we can marry. Perhaps by that time I will not be able to have a child, and we both long for children. Shall I risk being an unwed mother in this snobbish and scandal-mongering world in which we live. A Would-Be Mother. A desire for children is one of our noblest instincts and one which is highly praised by the most respectable people. Although these same people are always deploring modern woman's lack of children and desire for them, you would be condemned, I believe, for wanting a child. But, I also believe, that you would not be condemned if they understood your situation. Even the narrowest mind is capable of human sympathy. The chief reason why marriage is so important is the protection of offering. The funda- American cities and towns. Its total indebendedness is but $8,500. The town is also well lighted by electricity; the climate is healthful and the winters pleasantly mild. In the professional field, it contains one lawyer, one medical doctor, and one dentist. Have Arranged Million-Dollar Project The people of Mound Bayou have an old-fashioned community spirit, also. They have recently organized a Mound Bayou Foundation to raise one million dollars for the development of their town. Recently there was a celebration of Home Coming Week and Founder's Day (July 7-13, 1929). The very permanency and stability of this pioneering community has attracted the interest of the entire country; particularly when one of its distinguished citizens, Mrs. Mary C. Booze, attracted widespread attention as national Republican Committeewoman for the State of Mississippi. Will There Be an All-Negro State? Mound Bayou has often been discussed as the possible nucleus of an all-Negro state. It is not entirely improbable that this may be brought to pass. Many authorities, both white and black, have predicted the establishment of an all-Negro state in America, and have indicated that Mound Bayou will be the base of The Mound Bayou invitation to the Negro men and women of work in the Bayou and Bayou and for Judge and Chief of Police and not from them!"

If parents are made legally responsible for their children, there is more possibility that these children will grow up well-fed and educated to take a proper place in the social scheme. It is harder to make a living-in cold and temperate countries, hence illegitimacy is a more serious problem, and morality is more strictly enforced there than in regions where food is abundant. For this reason Italians are less prudish than English; India less so than China—and so on. As you see, morality is largely economic, People seldom realize this fact and confuse it with religion. But the two do not necessarily go together. India has more religion than perhaps any other country in the world and probably less morality in our sense of the word. Italy is more religious than England, but situations that are a commonplace in Italy would be a scandal in England. So the Church usually turns out well, in spite of obstacles. We have many illusorious examples to prove this. Leonardo Da Vinci, the greatest artist that ever lived, was a child of love. So the Church has a laudation of the New Testament, in lieu of the Old, laid the foundation of the Protestant religion. There is no doubt that it is safer and more pleasant to steer clear of conflict with society's conventions. We have a better kind of suffer as, much as the mother. The CREEPING THING A Story of Gruesome and Haunting Mystery Diaron sat perched on one of the stone lions that guarded the entrance. As we turned in the long, curving drive he rose and came toward us. SYNOPSIS A series of murders in the mysteries octagonal tower room of Selwyn Hall, where some of some menous creeping reptile. These murders have been further complicated by the missing bodies in the hall serving woman have been found murdered, and when their bodies are about to be removed by the undertaker they are found. His unknown Haitian nephew, Garland Selwyn, has appeared on the scene at the murder of Alain Hardcore, who murdered is Alena Hardcore, mysterious and glazed-seasoned woman detective, his friend Ace Jonas, two detectives who are engaged in clearing up the mysteries of the establishment of Al Jarton, Frederick's friend. Here, a peculiar reluctance of the investigator to examine the examination of the scalped head of the victim, had led Frederick to an attempt to make the examination strenuous, resulting in a scaling knife on the floor by the body of an earlier victim has a very significant impact. When Frederick attempts to examine the body of the murdered Alain Hardcore, Garland Selwyn, who claims that he has orders to prevent everyone, not excluding Frederick from such an examin- —NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY— INSTALLMENT VII Without stopping to reason about the matter, I was out and after A Jarton before he had taken the knife from the spasm of the alms from the swirling door of the alms. Diaron sat perched on one of the stone lions that guarded the entrance. As we turned in the long, curving drive he rose and came toward us. ley entrance to the morgue. My eyes travelled with the straight aim and the soot on the spot in that gloomy interior toward which the undertaker was striding two steps ahead of me—the cooling board on which not an hour before he was about to step out of that strange black woman detective, Alene Hardure. The white-covering gleamed early through the dusky light. It was drawn the length of the tape on the wall, suggesting of what lay beneath it. I heard the sigh of relieved anxiety as it hissed from Al Jarton's lips when his eyes rested on that undisturbed surface. He lifted it. We both looked down and—gasped. The body upon which we gazed was not that of the woman whom I had left there so short a space. It was the body of a man. Both of us knew that cadaver. It was one that had been in the morgue now for over a month—one of the many unknowns that they were undertaking as establishment as the result of some accident. They are kept for varying intervals in the hope that some relative or friend may identify them or that some friend may have the disposal to some agency, medical or other. Sometimes, after a long time, these cadavers are claimed, at other times they are not claimed. Some family bear forever in their records the name of the missing member who was never heard of after a certain time, or who was never seen. The body had been in a far dim corner and obviously its substitution for the other body was the work of someone who wished to get paid for the property, but the liability the change would go undiscovered for some time—which it would have done had it not been for the accident coming to the property. I looked across at Al; he was looking at me. a dazed expression of wondering surprise in his eyes "I looked out and took out somewhere up the alley, Al!" I said. "He must have been slow getting to them or maybe it was a matter of their delaying too long to get there." I would have had things all set before you got in and a casual look would have left everything. O.K. ill too late for a hot day. We got that anyhow. Let's follow it." "Where—Who? How?" The three questions tumbled over each other. Al looked at me and he thought I was Garland Suspected by CORA JEAN MOTEN The Well-Known Serial Writer. cock and bull takes of their assign- ment to hard-pressed culcadav- ing nothing. Besides the honorable Mr. Selwyn will have to do a tall lot of explaining to me to make me understand why he told me he had order to come to work and then seem to know anything about them." I turned and looked at Al keenly. His eyes were suspiciously red. I knew Al: I had known him since we were both boys. "I shot the question at him abruptly; something was begin- ning to dawn in my mind as a posi- bility, 'how did it happen that w you overslept this morning?' Al knew: 'I had a few drinks with Doc Vara- rant and this guy Slewin after we left the ice box. You know how it is. Tom. All we knew gets me man. All the excitement and the nature of it—well, a fellow must nat- urally takes a drink after he's through. And this thing was get- ting me anyway. Al didn't look "Um-hum." I nodded my head and moved toward the door leading inward. I pushed the door slightly entrance and locked it securely from within as was the usual custom. Al followed me almost apologetically. When we were in his office I turned to him briefly and spoke rather curtly. "Now. Al. I don't know whether or not I've got the right hunch, but I'm going to follow it around and Selkova of ed ed he aren't working together. Maybe they didn't tank you up on purpose and like letting one of them stay on guard there last night or—rather this morning. Maybe you did or maybe you didn't have so much money and least of all what you were saying but—I'm going to act on the lunch that all those things are so and I want you to get out from the tree tree tree. Will you? I paused and looked straightly at him. "Yeah, sure I will, Tom. You know me. I don't know a damn thing I know. I don't know a damn thing. Glass.

I know I ain't been entertaining him down here. Worse, whatever it is, let it old man and count it in do anything I can to help you." There was actual relief in Al Jarton's voice and his expressive brown face as looked on.

He drove he rose and came toward us. "Well, Diaron." I spoke before Al had a chance. "I happened to be with Mr. Jarton when he got your message to me. I looked around here, in the daptime. I thought I might as well come along and he's promised to let me share in the secret. Havent you al, Al?" I was beside me as I faced about. "Sure! he nodded heartily. "I gota hunch it'll mean more for Mr Frederick, here, to hear about this. I was beside me for you to tell me." He smiled engagingly at old Diaron. "Let's sit out here on the steps while you relieve your mind. Without waiting for you to tell me." He smiled engagingly at old Diaron. "Let's sit out here on the steps while you relieve your mind. Without waiting for you to tell me." He smiled engagingly at old Diaron had been dangling his feet over when we drove up. I sat down on the lower step and Diaron found a seat on the ground. We both used us both from above and between. Voodoo Story For a moment he sat very silent. His face was grave. He seemed to be in a state of deep fatigue fully before he spoke. Then with a great sighing, in-drawn breath, such as a swimmer takes before plunging into cold water he began. Then he began. "I was born in the jungles of Haiti. My father he was a papalol an' my folks were of the what you call the priest-man. The man who call the gods for us when we want to do the worship. Now the worship not what you think it is.

He looked behind him fearfully as a woman came up and pinned in the sudden silence. A small black cloud was sweeping across the sky toward the sun. Far away, a woman came a soft rustling. A sinuous green body was slipping into the shadows as we looked across the weed grown space. The old man went on. His voice was scarcely a whisper. His eyes were watchful and fear sat in them. It was as if he might have ears to hear the fearful and uncanny things he was telling and tongues to cry aloud the monstrous tales.

C.—(CNS)—The $50,000 fee offered for his immediate release from prison by "Scarface" Al Capone, millionaire Chicago racketeer and gangster, who with his bodyguard was given a jail sentence in Philadelphia last May after pleading guilty to carrying a concealed weapon, has intrigued two of Washington's attorneys. Perry W. Howard of the firm of Howard, Hayes and Davis, and Mortimer M. Harris, have enlisted their skills in the interest of the well-known prisoner, who for years evaded the net of the police. Mr. Howard, due to his experience in Federal Courts readily devised a plan which will soon be tried, it is said, to liberate Capone from his cell. The local lawyers have made several trips to Philadelphia and have conferred with Capone's lawyers suggesting a plan which includes the use of an unarmed prisoner, reported that they plan to apply for a writ of habeas corpus for Capone, based on the decision of the United States Supreme Court in Election Day, 1972, in case this case the Supreme Court held that a fair trial by due process of law was denied the prisoners, when the atmosphere and circumstances of the trial and situation in which an impartial trial could not be given the prisoners. This decision rests on the state penitentiary where they awaited excution. In addition, it is rumored that the plan calls for the police to "pull" which is reported to be already at work on the more stubborn "wires." According to Harris, George tricked, into entering the plea of guilty on the promise of a fine for the offense. The plea was meted out, instead. 4 GIVEN PAROLES BY GOV.

FIRED IN THE NATIONAL CHEMICAL CO., 87 WEST 10TH ST., NEW YORK. Extra! SCOTTISH RITE MASONIC HEAD DEAD WASHINGTON, D. C. (Special)—Robert Lewiston Pendleton, who celebrated his 64th birthday just two weeks ago, died at his home here Wednesday. He was head of the Scottish Rite Mason. He was born in Marianna, Fla., and married Miss Lella Amos, of Washington, D. C., in 1893. He learned the printers' trade, was on the New York City side of the People's Woodrow Wilson Building, 1885-86 and since that time has been head of the Quality Printing Company, of this city. Funeral will take place Sunday. GERTRUDE BUTLER—Sentenced by the Criminal Court of Baltimore City to three years in the House of Justice, she was sentenced from a white man. About eleven more months of her term remain. Since she has been in prison her mother has died and her father needs her at home to take care of him and her husband. MARION STEVENSON—Sentenced by police magistrate in Somerset county to two years in the House of Correction for unauthorized use of automobile. About five more months of his term remain. The magistrate is 18 years old and he will be employed by a reputable farmer. Sentence Severe OSCAR STEWART-Sentenced by the Criminal Court of Baltimore City to four years in the Penitentiary for larceny of underwear. Has served all of his term except two months. Has been convicted for two years on a serious offense committed twenty-two years ago and later sixty days for larceny. His sentence in the present case, however, was fairly severe and he has been an excellent prisoner and has provided for his wife with a new home. His wife is ill and needs his help. I believe he will be the better for this small clemency. Sentenced for Robbery JOHN C. CATLIN—Sentenced by the Criminal Court of Baltimore City to ten years in the Penitentiary for robbery. Has served all of his term except eleven months. His crime was a very serious one, there was a lot of litter and circumcises. Because of this I have not acted favorably on his case, although it was first recommended by Mr. Parrish one year ago. The man has, however, made an excellent prisoner. He is a trusty and driven man. He is a man I think his industry and general prison conduct entitles him to this clemency, now that he has served all of his ten year term except eleven months.

[Image of a wheelchair] POLICE LODGINGS SHOW JOB HUNTERS More than 5,000 Men Out of Work Here, Officers Estimate. 27 SEEK SHELTER Only Two Applied the Same Week of Last Year. The number of men seeking shelter at the police stations still reflects the unusual amount of unemployment here, officials say. Last week 27 men sought lodging and in each case stated that they were unable to secure employment. They have been sent South and industrial centers of the East. Officers here estimate that there are at present more than 5,000 unemployed men here. The labor situation, as compared with this same week last year, may have been worse the year ago only two men applied to the police for shelter. Many Vagrants In addition to the large number applying, policies lao arrested 21 persons, most of whom are means of support, last week. Persons without homes who do not apply to the police department are sleeping in stray places are subject to arrest.

Between 800 and 900 persons made the trip Monday on an all- day excursion down the Bay on Captain Brown's steamer, Avizon. The boat left the foot of Broadway at 8:45, stopped at Apollo at hole to tag on 107 excursionists there en route to Cambridge, Md., to arrive at four p.m. Because of the low tide, Captain Brown did not venture close to the teaching halls at Baltimore, leaving them at 10:30. Masons reported one of the fine outings of the year and an all-day trip without any untoward accidents. Pollest, on Sparrow Company, G. D. Wesley, representing Sparrow Masons, told the AFRO-AMERICAN that residents of the point were disappointed over the failure of the Avalon to stop there in the past. Arrangements had been made with the Bethlehem Steel Company, he said, to have the boat docked at the Owl Wharf. After all arrangements were made, the boat was bought, bought tickets, he said, the committee in Baltimore phoned him that the boat would not stop. Grandmaster Willard W.

SAYS PASTOR IS FATHER Crowd Weeps; Officers Teil Mother She's Not Turned Out SPARTANBURG, S. C. —A chapter out of Hawthorne's "Scarlet Letter" was almost enacted here Sunday when Miss Malissa Preston, former choir leader and public school teacher marched up the aisle of the Majority Baptist church with the baby in her arms which she says is the son of the pastor of the church, and penitently asked the forgiveness of the congregation. Struck with awe, the conreagation, was at first stuned, but melted into sympathy as tears streamed down the cheeks of the unwed moher. An elderly member of the church rushed to take the baby. Came Penitent "I waited for the church to call me into question, but as you did not," she tearfully said, "I decided to come before you. I realize that I have shined and made a terrible mistake, but I have prayed, and God has forgiven me. Now I come to the church confessing my sins and asking forgiveness." Then raising her hands as if taking an cath Miss Preston declared that she had not told a lie when she named the Rev. J. W. Coleman, pastor of the church, as the father of her child. Pastor Absent The Rev. Mr. Coleman, the pastor, was absent Sunday morning. Officials said he was preaching at one of his country churches. The pastor had been conducting the revival there was in charge of the service. As the young mother ended her job, the Murch chairman of the deacon board came forward and assured Miss Preston that she had not been turned out of the church. The Rev. Mr. Phillipa chairman of the church and every member arose to insure her that she was forgiven and in full standing. Mothers rushed up to extend her the hand of fellowship to baby became the center of attention. Accused Pastor Last February, Miss Preston, who is a Hampton graduate, public school teacher here, and memorialist, came back from a trip to New York with a seven months' old baby and instituted a maternity suit against the Rev. W. Coleman, pastor of her church. When the case came up the Rev. Coleman's attorney entered a technical plea of guilty and the pastor pleaded guilty. Word that the Rev. Mr. Coleman was planning to marry another young woman while she was in New York, where she was living, to protect the name of the pastor, is said to have made her decide to come back and fight.

He closed the school, attended the American school established by one James A. Crestfield and because of his exceptional ability, was sent to Lincoln University, where he further training.

He here last spring. As a relief hurrier, Flournoy is probably the best bet that Manager Warfield has and the big boy that he poised to poach his starts this year.

SOX FIELD WELL Marcell, Washington, Thrill Hildale Has Six Errors. By S. B. WILKINS. AP DIXON blasted out hits like a charge of TNT as the local Black Sox trampled the Hilldale outfit in two games here Sunday. The Alpha ended the Brewed Omega went to the Sox by a 7-4 score. Riding the apple for fourteen safeties out of fourteen consecutive games faced five different dangers. Dixon easily proved the hero of the day. His smashing orgy began July 21 during the Homestead Grays' season, when a bunch of Streeter, one single and two doubles out of three times up; two singles and one double donated by Smoky Joe; and last Sunday, two singles on Cockrell, and two singles in the first game a total of five out of five. In the second contest, he added one double and two singles to his collection, for a total of nine singles, four doubles and one home run. To give flavor to these bingles, he has been donated two free passes, one by Williams, and one by He. He has played in a total of eight runs, himself scored four times. SOX SCORE FIRST. In the first game Sunday, the Sox were the first to score, when in the second game Clark doubled, and they added two in the second, two in the third, one in the fifth and five in the seventh. The pitches made their first tally in the sixth when Holloway doubled and Charleston flew to Washington who returned the ball to Clark, but Clark failed to get his mask off time. The Sox then scored the second count in the ninth in an attempted rally which fell short. In this frame Dihigo, Cooper. Holloway and Warmack each touched Yokely in the fourth the fans saw Washington "walk" a mile to snare Charleston's fly to center-right. Burbage and each downed one each downed the total of fifteen base his garnered by the Sox. MARCEL THRILLS. In the fifth stanza Marcel was given the artificial flowers when he caught Mackey's fly over the treestop of the ball. Marcel went head first over the fence and all could be seen were his feet and gloved hand holding the ball. This was the first time Yokoyama came when Yokoyama connected with one of Cooper's offerings in the fifth for a single, his only hit of the day. Marcel also sent a good day at bat, contest out of four in the first and three out of three in the second contest. With two down and two strikes on him, Dixon sent the pill over left Wilson on in the seventh. FLOURNOY IN FORM Pitching masterful baseball in the abbreviated nightcap, Flournoy held the Daisies to one hit until the seventh and final frame when he keyed in a run. Then runs. Until then the only hit was a home run by Dihigo in the second inning. Stevens was the only Darbitey to get on, except Dihigo, until the seventh, and this was in the second, when Flournoy erred on his bunt. At the crack of Dihigo's hat in the second, Dixon in left, turned his back to the stands, for the second hit labeled "HR" by the Cuban heavy man. When the fans began to leave after the Sox had rung up their half of the seventh with the score standing 7-1, the Daisies broke out in a rash from Dumbo. Dumbo singled, Mackey walked, Manager Cockrell went in to bat for Jackson and singled, scoring Dhigio; Cooper batting for Stevens, singled to score Mackey and Dallard batting for Pritchett, singled. But the rally fell short when Cox was on a fielder's choice of Holloway's run. Man, 76, in Horseshoe Tourney HORSESHOE ADDICTS WORKING WITH ZEST HORSESHOE ADDICTS WORKING WITH ZEST Park Superintendent Puts in Four More Pits to Accommi date Crowds. Counties to be Visited Within Few Days. The clank of horteshoes against iron pegs in Baltimore and viability, has sounded with such increasing volume within the past few years, with an appraisal man-made an anvil chorus. Which all means that horteshoe pitchers are getting ready in earnest for the Afro's Horseshoe Fitching Tournament, the opening date. Young and old have taken to the sport of tossing the iron luck tokens, but many are: finding that the problem is not just in pitching the horseshoe, but in making it land where you want it. Interest has not confined itself to any particular group for the clergy doctors, lawyers, school teachers, others who have been keeping the courts hot. Two more courts are being installed at Drudg Hill Park, making three in all in that district. One of the courts themselves of the space offered in alleyes and on vacant lots, to unlumber their muscles and to get their pitching eye trained. At Drudg Hill Park, Bill Adams. 76 years young. Is probably the oldest entrant in the tournament. There are no age limitations, however, to the tournament. There are pitch horseshoes, is eligible to enter. There is no entry fee, and prizes will be awarded to district winners, however. Chromium steel horseshoes will go to the winners of the city and county districts, with cold and silver-plated horseshoes going to the steel champion and runners-up. The East and South Baltimore districts are expected to be heard first this week, as well as some of the counties. Bill Gibson, Afro Sports Editor, will soon visit some of the counties to see how the teams will enter the Afro competition, which will begin the third week in August.

TEAMS IMPROVED Bacharachs and Hilldale Take on New Life. PHILADELPHIA—The second half pennant in the American Negro league may be won by Baltimore, the all-star top in the initial semester, and then again there are several reasons why it may not. Those reasons are the Homestead Grays, the Lincoln Giants, Hildale, Bacharachs and Cuban Stars. The Scorpions and no teams have shown as much improvement as the Bacharachs and Hildale. The Darby and Shore boys have at last rounded into form and have plenty of trouble for all of them. Bacharachs Ben Taylor, veteran pilot of the Bacharach Giants, is getting results and the potential power of his machine has been the big hole in the club but Gardner, Henderson, Shields, McClure and Cooper look better each game. Lither each game binned the Atlantic police, was a big blow. Carr is functioning well at first base while Dav is the fielding equal of anyone at the keystone sack and is doing well in the shortfield. Lindsey is playing a better game now than in years. Ambrose Reid, the brilliant utility man, is behind him. Behind the bat Eggleton and Jones leave to be desired, although the latter has been ailing physically most of the season. No outfield surpasses Thomas and Jenkins, afield with a mallet. Billdale The weak-hitting Stevens has rejoined Hildale and his sensational fielding has put new pep in the infield. Bizz Mackey and his strong armings have been the best. The well-balanced pitching staff is moving on an even keel and the outfield is above ordinary. At this time official records show that Judy Johnson is leading in stolen bases, Oscar Charleston is down in some runs. Johnson has made more hits than any league player. Lincoln Glants John Henry Lloyd boasts the leading hitter of the circuit in Charlie Smith: the leading twirler in Connell Rector: the leading second baseman in Connell Rector: the building better than the Old Master who took a bunch of cast-offs and made a pennant contender out of them. Lloyd is himself playing a remarkable base at first base and making it contenders at any other first, baseman. Black. Sex The Baltimore Black Sox have set their right field problem with Burbage. Lattimore has seen the ball in handling the pitchers. The Sox showed their class when they took four out of six games from the Grays. Cubans from now on cubans will be better. Pompez has added Rosso, Melito, Vargas, Ruiz, Gomez, Belerano and Navarro, and they will plug up all of the holes. A bright spot in the consistent work of the veterans Perez, Fabre, Oscar and Baro and the new comers Ramos and Correa. Grays The Grays have about recovered from the motor accident which wrecked the team in the closing days of the first half. At full strength now, the Possey-battermen stay at the top hole Brit has won several well-pitched games since his return to the club and the hurling crew now the top pitcher of Beckwitt. Cannady. Ewing and others should ring out many a hit.

SANTOP'S BRONGOS TO PLAY SOX SUNDAY Strong Philadelphia Nine Will Give Local Team Plenty of Opposition. PLAY GIANTS ALSO Philadelphia Giants to Meet Locals in One Contest. The Black Sox will have as their Sunday opponents, two Philadelphia teams, Santop's Broncs and the Philadelphia Giants. Lewis Salk, a veteran of the American pastime, now 42 years old first entered organized baseball with Hildale, and after a long period of activity, organized the Broncos three years ago. The team has made remarkable strides since that time. Santop has at his beck and call a great hurling staff, with William Milton being his ace. Milton to date has turned in 41 victories, with a batting average of .325. Milton has had three shutouts. Just a week ago he defeated the Jersey City club by the close score of 4 to 3, and he also defeated the Trenton Farmers in another close contest, of 4 to 2 being the score. But Milton is not the only good hurler under the tuteure of the able six victories and, with the season still young, Borden can still be on the warpain for victories. He also shapes a crackjack infield and one that would delight the heart of many manager. With Mike Lewis holding down the ball, the keystone bag, Johnson the star shortstop, and completing it with Ben Johnson holding out the ball, it is an infield to be proud of. The outer garden is just as well balanced as the infield. Richardson in left, Briggs in center, Richardson about as good an outfield as can be found another. Johnny Campbell is the catcher and mainstay of the team. Will plenty of opposition in this outfield and fans should not be disappointed though they do not have a member of the American League here Sunday. The Giants are also said to have a fast aggregation and the locals will have no time to let up if they wish to take both games Sunday.

SOUTHEASTERN MAY FORECAST CHAMPION SOUTHEASTERN MAY FORECAST CHAMPION Just How Nation's Stars Line Up May be Told at Petersburg, August 5-10. EXPECT BIG GALLERY Importance of Tourney Brot Name, "Little Nationals." By W, A. JOHNSON, Jr. PETERSBURG, VA.—From the way work in progressing on the local lot, State College is going to be a mecca for tennis's wry mortals August 5 to 10, when the fifth annual Southeastern own sectiona 1 championships takes place. Work on the courts is going at a rapid gait under the supervision of competent groundmen. When the stars near stars and other supernumbers hit the hill in high, everything will be in the proverbial pink, if present indications can be used. According to information gathered from the general chairman, Luther H. Foster, seven entries in leading events have been received including big guns of last year's journey. A large contingent from New England and Seaboard townships is expected to join the caravan which will begin its southward trek not later than the end of the year. Va. State College, which will be the scene of the Southeastern again for the first time since 1925, is sparing no pains in its efforts to make the largest open sectional tournament the best thing tennis has witnessed in its short history. And notices have been sent to the leading players of the country with hope of corraling the largest field of entries in the five years of the Southeastern. There will be six championship events. Ms. Singleton, doubles, women's singles and doubles, mixed doubles and junior singles. The entry fees are $1 for singles, $1 for each member of doubles team and 75 cents for junior singles. Boarding and sleeping for players and visitors will be furnished by at $1.25 College, at $1.25 for three meals a day and bed. The entertainment committee is working overtime arranging a social program without a precedent of prior experience. "Forty Love" dance will be the feature. Entries must reach Luther H. Foster, chairman of the general committee, no later than midnight Saturday, August 3. Accommodation may be arranged by communication with E. A. Finley, chairman of the housing committee.

Good pitching by Bananas Robinson and Stan Carter, enabled the Royals to conquer the Eastern division of the Ultimore in their contest for city championship, by downing the Dundalk Community club, Sunday, by the scores of 6-1 and 3-2. On winning, the Royals featured in fielding, with five double plays, accompanied by a sensational running catch by Garnet in the center, by Carter hurried with the sixth in the nightcap, when a double followed two singles to tie the score. The Royals won the nightcap in the seventh when Harry Williams tripped against the right field fence and scored as Cross bounced out, J. Wittstadt to McLean.

SECOND GAME The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, August 3, 1929. The Passing Review By BILL GIBSON IF YOU ASK US, and of course you won't, what we think of the support given organized tennis in this hamlet of Maryland Free State, you'll probably get an answer that you don't expect. And we're not going to bite our tongue to say a few things, believe it or not. The recently conducted OPEN tennis tournament, which has at last ended after more than a week's duration, is the immediate cause for this comment. Rotten support was given the tournament—players and spectators alike being guilty. We do not mean to be severe in our criticism of the handling of the tournament. We merely tell you, we think he did a rather creditable job. THERE SOULD HAVE BEEN MORE help in putting the tournament over; for, running a tournament is more than a one-man job, particularly if that one man is not able to devote all of his time to it. So indifferent were local players about entering the tournament, that the date for the closing of entries had to be set back, in order to get some new entries. There were complaints, to reassure, definite inclusivity-bundle numbers(2) vacillating adroitly, whenever the question was asked as to who was running the tournament. The juniors' swelled the entry list, but there were more men who did not play than there were who did. A misunderstanding of some sort, caused practically all of the local women tennis players to steer shy of the tournament. There were no doubles matches. Talking with some of the players seated about the courts, one received the impression that certain players were not interested in the tournament, that was a sort of clamishness that set up a line of demarcation which they could not cross. But this was stoutly denied by others. There was only one out-of-town entry, and that lone entry occurred because Prof. Allison Davis happened to be in Baltimore, teaching at Morgan College. It seems that the proper type of invitation was not extended national tennis stars, yet the tournament was designed to be an OPEN one. National tennis stars steal clear. Baltimore. And there a business executive officially with the American Tennis Association. Tournaments have been held this year in New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Indiana, North Carolina, Missouri, Kansas, California, Illinois, the New England region, and in many other places, and in all instances some players of national importance participated. The tournaments were made attractive, and the players were glad to attend. Participation in these tournaments has a decided effect on the ratings of these players, and when there is a first-class tournament, you may look for them there. I know that tennis players in New Jersey cities, Philadelphia, and New York, would have been glad to come to the tournament. Ohio, a state with a north-whingle to do, THEY WERE NOT HERE, but there is no good reason why they shouldn't have been here. Their presence here, probably would have meant that such trophies as were offered would have rested in the hands of players other than Baltimore. Already plans have been started for a CLOSED tournament to be held here the week before the nationalists, and we guarantee that there will be almost the same entry list for this tourney as for the one erroneously labeled, OPEN. There will be, however, entries of some players, who for fear some players of national importance were designed for the tournament just closed, did not send in their entries for it. Small galleries, apparently interested only in relatives or members of the immediate family, greeted the players, and their feeble applause could not be heard a half city block. Enthusiasm was conspicuous by its absence. In a city with the large population that Fall gave us and considering it easy noce from other large cities, near by, it does seem tragic to view a tournament so small. The tennis players of bygone days, unlike those in other cities, are not interesting themselves in giving instruction to the group of youngsters who are coming up, and consequently much of our tennis crop is going to seed. Young girls on the courts are almost a rarity. Upon a time the Monumental City was a hotted of tennis activity, IT CAN BE MADE SO AGAIN. We have called attention to these various deficiencies because we believe that there are people in a position to remedy them, but who are unaware that they exist. If there are any who can disprove any assertions made here, we stand corrected. G WHEN AT BORDENTOWN attending the national tennis tournament, you may make a faux pas, whatever that is, if you don't read carefully the rules on etiquette for the gallery. Controlling the gallery is a serious problem and spectators can help by observing a few simple courtesies. Here are a few of them: "A moving background is the most disturbing condition that a player can experience; it makes perfect play of the ball next to impossible. For this reason you should not move about when opposite the end of a court, except when it is absolutely necessary that you be careful to keep parasols and fans in the background. "Do not applaud or give vocal expression to your feelings while a rally is on, but wait until the point has been played out and then applaud or give vocal expression to your feelings." "Do not applaud or give vocal expression to that is meant that your approval should be given, to give good strokes only." "Do not coach the players. Never call 'Good', 'Out', 'Let it go', 'Hit it', etc., because thereby you are influencing a player's judgment, which is a factor in the outcome of the match. . ."

Do you remember the old, filthy shop where the man in the window rolled the leaves with dirty fingers . . . and spit on the ends? What a far cry this is from the modern, certified "Cremo-method" of manufacture! Certified Cremo THE GOOD 5¢ CIGAR ...THAT AMERICA NEEDED YOUTHFUL NET STAR TOPS ALLISON DAVIS Alfred Walker Shows Form in Defeating Conqueror of Last Season. NEW JUNIOR CHAMP Ralph Reckling Defeats Benny Hill; West Absent. Alfred Walker, youthful local tennis star, playing in his second tournament since his advance from the junior division, defeated Allison Davis, Hampton Institute instructor and tennis player, 3-1 to win the men's singles in the Progressive Tennis Club's Open Tournament, which closed Tuesday afternoon. It was indeed an upset of the proverbial dope bucket when the Douglass high school star, mastered his older rival, who last year defeated him to win the open diadem. Rain interrupted the match, making it necessary to cary over into this week competition that should have been completed last season. Stopping play when the sets stood at one all, the two players resumed play Tuesday. None in the gallery expected that young Walker would be able to stand up under the slashing bombardment of Davis, and when he came through to win two straight sets, the Walkers tory for the high school youth, and he took it calmly. The first set was won Monday by Davis, 6-1, and in this set he received little opposition. The second set see-sawed until the sixth game, when Walker won the seventh game, and the sixth, 6-3. The third game was uneventful and was won by Walker, 6-0. Two games were played in the fourth set when rain forced the calling off of the match with the score a-one. When play was resumed at 3 p.m. Tuesday, the players were fighting anxiously or on an advantage with the game at 4-all, Walker took two straight games' to win the set and match. Young Walker played like an old master and once the disastrous first set had passed, the little champion was never in danger. Miss Pauline Wharton, winner of the women's singles up last year, was presented with the trophy on this occasion. The junior singles match was won by Ralph Reckling, who defeated Benjamin Hill, 3-2. Hill had Reckling two-love and then dropped three straight sets. Ed West, last year's junior champ, did not enter as he was reported out of the city. QUOIT GANG OUT Interest in the tournament has also been taken by the McCulloh street quoit "gang," who announce that they will enter a team. In their recent club quoit doubles tournament, Tom Jones and Burnell Tillman won first prize; Willard Branch and Mack Britt took second; J. Howard and S. P. Williams, third; and L. Jordan and C. W. Marshall, fourth. These enthusiasts will meet any club at any time on their own or other suitable ground. "But I emphatically state that no smoker of a certified Cremo ever runs such a risk." "Everything put into your mouth should be clean," urges Alfred W. McCann. "Things promiscuously handled ought not to enter the human mouth. "Cremo—the five-cent favorite is certified! "Every tobacco leaf entering the Cremo factory is scientifically sterilized by U. S. Government approved methods. "Sanitary, scientifically-clean factories protect the health of the Cremo smoker. "When you smoke a Cremo, you get a cigar which I certify as pure and germ-free." Cremo's superiority starts with the choicest and tenderest leaves, ripe and mellow, and continues in goodness through a slow, expensive maturing and mellowing process...topped off with the finest imported Sumatra wrapper! Cremo contains no scrap—no floor sweepings—all long filler—all fresh, tender leaves. Over $7,000,000 was spent in perfecting the certified "Cremo-method" of manufacture that insures uniformly fine, sanitary cigars. Foilwrapped...germ-free...crush-proof...the kind of cigar that the late Vice-President Marshall must have had in mind when he said: "What this country needs most is a good 5 cent cigar."

Cambridge elite welcomed the delegates and friends with open hands, and between the sessions with plump of chicken, best of ham, crabs and delicious fish, and in the evening entertained at bridge, informal tea, games, and parties and the like. Home care, business and all were kept behind for the three grand days of the convention. On High street, at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert M. St. Clair—the head quarters — was the center of attraction. The big dogs, in other words, cabinet memoirs, were as George Watty, Dr. Charles Fowler, Josiah Griggs, Dr. Edward Wheatley, Rev. E. T.

Just around on Pine street, the headquarters of the ladies of the Grand and Subordinate Courts were formed, hair done up to the minute, cheeks rosy, lips just sweet enough to kiss, what man wouldn't find some sort of excuse to say a pleasant word in exchange for a smile?

Everybody seemed to know the other, and the Cambridge people, as hosts, were always in the crowd, their guests in enjoying the time to the fullest. Among the Baltimoreans were Roy Bond and his wife, Rev. and Mrs. E. Green, Mr. and Mrs. J. Carter, Frances Chambers, Elizabeth Dodd, Annabell Redmond, Adole Carr, Dr. and Mrs. Mary F. Sewell, Thomas Smith and son, Junior, Samuel Hayward, Dr. Harry Brown, Nelson Fitzgerald, Dr. Carroll St. Clair, Mr. and Mrs. Maceo Williams and children. Marie Flagg Here.

Sister-in-law and brother, Marie and Howard Payne, whose house guest she was, was entertained on the day. The card prizes were very fitting and beautiful—the menu that followed, just hit the spot. The bunch included both of the children of Clara Robinson, Ruth Webb, and Mabel Hays, Ruth Shipley, Nellie Buchanan, Martha Harmon, Lucia Pindenghues, Amie Simmons, Pindenghues, Organ Young, Sadie Murphy, Mrs. Edward Fisher, and a few others.

Cooperative Idea Pointing to what had been done in Montgomery, Ala., where a dozen Negro grocery stores organized a silent cash registers, organized for the purpose of buying cooperatively and selling at uniform prices and the carrying of this plan in Winston-Salem by officials of the Business League. Holsey urged similar efforts in every city around the country. "We hope," he said, the Negro drug drugists. Negro dry goods stores, as well as other drug stores, are the grocers. There is no other way, at the present time and with America's present set-up of business, for Negro business. And the only way to give drugstores a solemn and serious warning. Already some of the large chain stores are experimenting with Negro neighborhoods, located in Negro neighborhoods, and the experiment has so far been a success. Some of these chains, the South and the North, decide to southern Negro communities with Negro clerks and pharmacists, that competition is going to stiffer and more intense, and we have experienced since Negro clerks are not as a rule employed in white grocery stores in the Southern "Nego druggists should be trained and join forces in some sort of cooperative union to the end that their business may be preserved under Negro management." Makes Analysis In analyzing the present business status of the group the speaker pointed out that our insurance company representing the largest group employ 10,000 and turn over approximately $20,000,000. The next largest group is employed in the hairdressing and hairstyling industries and employ about 10,000 and turn over $20,000,000. Among teachers, doctors, merchants, ministers, social workers, there are about 10,000 and turn over $20,000 letter carriers, railway post clerks and federal employees we have a total of about 125,000 white-collar jobs employed among other workers." 4.3. "We must look," he said, "to the development of our own enterprises for an increase in this class of opportunities." Company Which Carries $800,000,000 Insurance on Group Will Not Employ Them CHICAGO, Ill.—Although it is estimated that at least 6,000,000 of 27,000,000 policyholders in Met- trol Insurance company are colored, not one of its 29,000 field agents belong to the race group. It is also estimated that the company carries 9000 employees and the lives of colored people and that in addition to the large number of field agents also employed in its main and branch offices are the employees all of whom are white.

The dead man is Charles Thomas, 18. Sparrows Point, and the man who old the police officer is said to be Harry Busch, 27, 415 N. Bond street. Busch made his escape. Near Stampede A stampede resulted when the fusillade of shots rang out in the midst of the larger number of people and several had a narrow escape, says Robert Frazier, 216 Wolle street, and Miss Hydie Jackson, 1527 Monument street, were struck by stray bullets. Their wounds are not serious, however. While no one heard what transpired just before the shooting, it is said that the gun quarrelled over a young woman at the carnival. Already before anyone realized what was happening, the men engaged in a fight and Bush, drawing a revolver, began firing. Thomas crumpled with a bullet wound in the abdomen and died five minutes after he was taken to John Hopkins Hospital.
