Did Owen Thomas, 48, 1411 Lanvale street, fall in love with his own daughter, Annie?

The first, born two years ago, is living. At the behest of her father, she said, she told friends and father, her child was a young man in the neighborhood named Robert Jones. When her mother died two sons went away to work and she was left in the home alone with the father at the age of 13. It was shortly after this that her father fell in love with her, and became his "wife," she told authorities. DID HOUSE WORK Regularly she did the work, cooking, housecleaning and washing, for her father, and the two occupied the school. When her first child was born, she continued to take care of the home and maintain the relation with her father, she said.

Mr. Evans declared that he had no statement to make, but would do so later. Clement B. Wilcox, however, told the AFRO-AMERICAN that his committee would welcome any suggestions looking to the partisan members of the group in the anniversary. Wants Suggestions "The committee," he said, "has not considered Baltimore as being made up of various racial, religious or political groups, but all citizens as being Baltimoreers and that each one will, either in his private or public capacity, give his vote to the people of the world may know that we are a unilin in our city pride for Baltimore."

Is Big Affair Leaders declare that since it will be a hundred years before another centennial occurs, and adequate representation and their part in the making of the city should be displayed and preserved.

Inquiry at the office of Director Wood, Thursday morning, revealed that the group was communicated with that office as to the part the educational machinery was to take in the celebratory Inquiry also at the office of the group was held.

You are entitled to a job with an employer where you spend your money. Ask for it. Demand it. If you don't get it, quit dealing with it. All stores must hire helpers and clerks. Why not you? If you are good enough to spend, you ought to be good enough to earn. Deducting the cost of wrapping, service, delivery, the sugar you get in each pound bag is probably worth three cents. If you buy a pound for it and carry it away in your pocket, you are being robbed of three cents. Look for service courtesy and delivery. But be sure the money you spend makes it possible for you to earn more. Unless you can get a job in the store where you buy, you are being robbed. Think about that before you are jobless and hungry.

The delegates opposed to this policy are mainly from New York, Chicago, and the South. Appeal to League It is understood that one of the outstanding acts of the convention will be draft an appeal to the League of Nations asking that tribunal to liberate Africa from the imperialism of foreign countries and set the various national uprisings as environments. A delegation from the American Negro Labor Congress caused commotion when it issued a bill, which it scored Garveyism by pointing out that, instead of fighting imperialism its program was, in fact, to set up another country to govern the world and let the whites continue to exploit other colored races.

Two Months' Treatment by Mail $2.00 We Teach YOU How to Serve Successfully. Need Not Expect Fees for All Public Work, Says D. C. Municipal Judge. LEADERS SHOULD LEAD Only One in Every 100,000 of Population. DETROIT, (CNS.)—That lawyers should regard it as a part of their duty to take up the burden of race leadership in their communities was urged by Judge James Cobb, of the Municipal Court of the District of Columbia, speaking before the National Bar Association here last week. "It may be true," said Judge Cobb, "that there will be no pecuniary compartment of public revenue. It so that the public can be legislature or appearing before a commission to prevent discrimination in public conveyances, or an unjust apportionment of public revenue. It so that the public can be legislature or appearing before the other 99 should share the burden as well as you, but the price of leadership in any field is initiative, industry, and consecration. "That the people come only about one in every hundred thousand, so that he who would aspire to leadership must step forward to the head of the column. And by the law, he is marked out, as a leader." "It is the duty of the conscientious Negro lawyer to appear before these excuses and interpret the gestures, the ideals and the rights of the Negro race." Social Engineer In calling attention to the lawyer's duty in bringing the country to the place where it will live up to the law, the lawyer makes all citizens equal under the laws of the land, the speaker declared that "In a large way the lawyer is a social engineer engaged in guidance which play and interplay in civilized society. The organization and conduct of business are predicated on lawyer's services." The "machinery of the government functioned through the efforts of lawyers in positions of control." The adjustment of the individual to the other individuals of society rests for its ultimate interpretation upon the advice and direction of lawyers. The incidence is the study of law in action. "The law lives and has a definite social life. It is that living body of rules standard and simple, which is governed and action. Consequently one great opportunity of the Negro lawyer to make a distinct contribution to jurisprudence is to steer the Negro group in action, violence, and oppression. This would help in the implementation in all phases of life and avoiding all the oit-falls of hatred, violence, and oppression. This would be racial service. It would point the way for orderly progress for all minor groups to secure the full protection of the law of the land. It would be welcomed to the city by Acting Mayor John C. Nagle, comprised a representative group of lawyers from all sections of the country, including Judge Albert George of the Municipal Court of Chicago.

HUNTS GUN IN POLICE STATION WASHINGTON—John Brown walked into the Fourth police precinct last Tuesday night and received an oak of a gun. When asked by Policeman J. Auffenburg what he wanted a gun for, Brown replied: "To shoot a man who stabbed me." The policeman said he assured Brown that he was in the wrong place to borrow a gun, but the right place to sleep in. The police said he booked Brown as being drunk and locked him in a cell. Brown denied the policeman's story, but Judge Ralph Given the guilty and assessed a fine of $10.

My Mail $2.00 WASHINGTON, D. C., (GNS.) — During the past five years Negro medical students have enrolled in thirty Medical Schools, among which are the finest in the United States and Canada. Of the 2,644 Negro students who have been enrolled, 586 have received medical degrees, 475 of whom were graduated from the medical colleges at Howard University and Meharry and 111 graduated from other medical schools in the United States and Canada. 2183 at Howard-Meharry During this period 2103 students were enrolled at Howard University and Meharry and 451 students enrolled in the other schools, making an average during the period men- students enrolled each year of whom 117 graduated. Since 1926 the enrollment in white medical colleges has decreased almost 30 per cent. This is accounted for partly by the increased training programs offered in the medical training both Howard and Meharry, but is partly due to the reluctance with which colored students are received in medical institutions offering medical training. The Thirty Schools Negro medical students have been graduated from the following medical colleges during the past five years: Harvard University, 255; Meharyan Medical College, 220; Boston University, 3; Chicago Medical College, 10; College of Medical Evangellists, 1; Columbia University, 1; Harvard University, 5; Indiana University, 4; Michigan University, 1; Loyola University, 1; Northwestern University, 11; Ohio State, 5; Rush Medical College, 15; Syracuse University, 1; Temple, 6; Tufts, 3; University of California, 2; University of Michigan, 9; University of Vermont, 1; Women's Medical College of Pennsylvania, 3; Western Reserve, 1; Dalhousie University, 5; McGill University, 1; University of Montreal, 1; University of Toronto, 3. "Second. Failure of banks. One hundred Negro banks have failed and an equal number have perished during the last sixty years, carrying with them into their untimely graves the briny-sweat-earned dollars of the country." "Buried with these institutions were some things even more precious than money-FAITH and hope. Nine of these banks perished in Mississippi." WHITE BANKS. "Third—Failure of white banks. "More than two hundred of these failures have recently since. One in three there is all the rest of the South. Buried beneath these bank sepulchres are large aggregate savings, a child-like faith and the high hopes of Negro people. "COURTS AND EDUCATION. "Fourth. The failure of courts and education. No reliable person denies that there is injustice. Many white people not only admit, but are vigorously at work trying to remedy the situation. "But gross injustice still exists. Negroes do not even expect justice at court when a white citizen is involved, and so nine cases in ten sunders are going to be tried and that save lawyer fees and perhaps severe beating. "Fifth. A State like Georgia spends more than ten times as much money as upon a Negro child. White children are driven in big buses to beautiful consolidated schools. These children often pass colored children walking three to four miles in the "But worse still, these colored children often must sit in cold, damp school houses all day. Here and there they are prized by that genuine Christian and humanitarian, Julius Rosenwald. "Sadder still is the poorly educated, poorly paid teacher. Often she can barely speak English.

We have six thousand, who have been lynched by a mob of one two or three, who have all been innocent-hurried." "There has been no recourse. The lawyers are helpless, the courts inactive, some of the brave shelters, some of the prisoners, their prisoners, but they are 'overpowered'; if the state militia when called out does not actually help to hunt and lynch Negroes, the record seldom changes; some of the prisoners have neither time nor money to investigate a mob of more than two thousand; the church has gone fishing or is busy in the church or the Brew brew children in a furnery. We take it that this is the same sort of fire with which Negro children are burned in Mississippi, but Jewish children are some of the things which beyond doubt, have discouraged millions of Negroes in the South. Some have a mighty exodus; others have fought and died; and still others are standing, discouraged. CHURCH TO BLAKE "But plainly there is on organization guilty above all others.

C.-Three things combined to bring just $25 worth of bad luck to Joseph Gaspari. The first thing was that he was looking for a black cat. The next that he went to the Eighty-Fifth Street and help to find it. The third was bootleg booze. While balking at hunting a bear, the police officer got a sniff at Gaspari's breath. which fitted somewhat with his actions. That's a sign of bad luck, said the judge. Fine, $25.

C., (CNS.) — When John Wade, ex-police informer and now a special agent employed by the Department of Justice in the police court, Friday, August 2, he was thoroughly discredited by Judge Robert E.

(CNS.)—Approximately 100,000 census enumerators will be appointed throughout the country to take the Fiftieth Census next April. Those appointed will be all outlived by service, and for them a special examination will be given as prescribed by the director of the census. Their thousands of service veterans, with their wives and widows, are expected to take advantage of the ruling of William M. Stetau, director of the Census Bureau, which gives them the choice in the selection of the enumerators. Director Stetau's decision was contained in a letter mailed to Representative Louis Ludlow, who is seeking the manner of selecting census enumerators. The reply construes the census act to mean that Congress intended that veterans should have the preference. One in each Subdivision "You know and I believe every member of Congress knows, that at least one enumerator will be required in every political subdivision to attend agriculture and enumerate the population and possibly to gather other information required for the census. These persons will not be required in an examination, but they will take an examination that I will prescribe for them. "The bureau is now actively engaged in the force of supersession who will be required for the census. This organization should be completed during the early fall, and it is the intention to up them by the number of appointments to veterans, their wives and widows, but it must be distinctly understood that all persons these appointments are demonstrable to ability to do the work that they must not take the job unless it is their intention to see through; also that they are capable of equal those of other militants." Mr. Stewart has also announced that a correspondence school to train government workers for taking the 1930 decennial census of population is planned by the Department of Commerce. The correspondence school will thoroughly familiarize the teachers and enumerators with instructions, rules and regulations for taking the census. BALTIMORE HELD IN D.C. WASHINGTON—Edward H.

EPISCOPAL BISHOPS "UPON RACIAL LINES" EPISCOPAL BISHOPS "UPON RACIAL LINES" Dr. Bragg Objects to Amendment Which Would Draw Color Line. DEFEATED AT ST. LOUIS Want Fatherhood of God Principle Preserved. Although he favors missionary districts with Negro bishops, the establishment of these districts upon racial lines is not necessary, declared the Rev. George F. Bragg, Jr., pastor of St. James P.E. Church, in a statement this week. The Southern P.E. bishops' meeting in Atlanta last spring recommended to the General Assembly to amend providing that "the House of Bishops may establish Missionary districts upon racial lines" the object be to provide missionary districts with Negro bishops, and to be legislative sanction to segregation and is not necessary. Proposes Amendment "I propose an amendment," says Dr. Bragg, "which says absolutely nothing of race or color, and under it the identical thing can be accomplished." The first part of Section I. Article Six of the Constitution, reads thus: "The House of Bishops may establish Missionary Districts in States and Territories, not organized into dioceses." "Now, I propose to add just here, the following: 'And it may still further establish Inter-Dioceses Districts of the same kind of rigorous dioceses, upon the request of the Dioceses concerned, embracing such congregations only that are not in union with any diocese Convention. Such a congregation must sustain the same status as other Missionary Districts." Was Defeated "At the St. Louis General Convention in 1916, when the racial plan was enacted, we contented more other things said: It is no part of her divine mission to . . . deliberate: write into her organic law a principle of division of the earth, and the truth that God hath made of one blood all nations of men and that "in Christ Jesus there is neither Jew nor Gentile, nor did not for a race but for humanity, and in His Church national ideals and national destiny must always be subordinate to the larger claims of God and of the family of God as a whole. No Distinction "Many years ago, the great Phillips Brooks, speaking in General Conference on this same subject, said: 'It is not simply a historical fact upon which we may rest, but that there should be a clear statement of the principle that in this branch of the Church of Christ, as in our distinction whatever, whatsoever, or wheresoever of race or color, and therefore as a distinct and necessary consequence of that, the principle is nothing if it is not a declaration, that legislation of whatever kind, in whatever place, that is based on race or contrary to the spirit of Christ." Closer Touch "The amendment which I propose, without drawing the color-line, provides a way to link up congregations of our group, now in ecclesiastical exile, with the National Church, Negro priests, most likely, will be selected and empowered because they will be in the closest sympathetic touch with the people for whose benefit the agency is called into existence." 75 Churchmen at School LAWRENCEVILLE, Va.—Nearly 75 clergy, lay members, social workers and Sunday school teachers attended the Washington Province summer camp in Maryland West Virginia, Virginia, Delaware and Pennsylvania.

RACE MINISTRY 134 YEARS OLD TUESDAY RACE MINISTRY 134 YEARS OLD TUESDAY First Ordination Took Place in Year 1795 in Philadelphia. JIM-CROW THE CAUSE M. E. Revolters Became Self Supporting P. E. Church. By GEORGE F. BRAGG Tuesday, August 6, 1929, was the 134th anniversary of the first ordination to the ministry of the historic Church, of a Negro, in this country. The day on which he was ordained is peculiarly suggestive. It was on the "Beast of the Transfiguration." This man, Absalon Jones, was not only the father of the Negro ministry, but also the father of the organization, which is significant that upon the part of the race, was a beneficial and civic society, "the Free African Society," which quickly evolved into a Negro Church, styled "The Elders and Deacons of the African Church" "Uni-Grow treatment" was the urge which brought to birth this effort. A company of Negro Methodists, who had just recently received "emancipation" and who were wont to attend the white Church, felt so the un-Christian treatment accorded them, that left that building never to return. They raised money and erected the first African Church in America, in the city of Philadelphia, where they came to conclude that it was unwise to remain un-connected with any Christian body. So they held a meeting to determine with what body they should be affiliated. They met with the first African church to collect the members of the African race. Almost unanimously, these Negro Methodists decided to unite with the Protestant Episcopal Church; but, on certain conditions which were to be received as an organized body. Second, they were to be given the assurance of the control of their own local affairs, forever. And, lastly, one of their number should be appointed a Reader, fitted to ordained as their regular pastor. They won out on the conditions they had laid down, and the next year, by a special order, the diocese, Absalom Jones was ordained to the ministry. It should ever be remembered that these people of the African race did not go to the Episcopal Church as men, but as women, men, although just emerging out of slavery. They not only went into the Episcopal Church, but they carried with them their own church building, and gave forth to the authorities a pledge that they would finance churches, and maintain their own minister. One hundred thirty-four years have passed by, and lo, a multitude of churches, ministers and various organizations, which no man can number.

RAINEY TALKS WITH DEMOCRATIC CHIEFS The Nation's Biggest All Negro Weekly. DEMOCRATS WILL LAUNCH DRIVE FOR VOTES DEMOCRATS WILL LAUNCH DRIVE FOR VOTES Party Heads Plan to Make Nation Wide Campaign of Organization. RAINEY CALLED Al Smith Leader Confers With Chieftains in N. Y. BOSTON. (ANP)—That the Democratic party intends to put up a fight to gain Negro votes throughout the country was indicated here recently when Julian D. Rainey, attorney, national organizer and titular head of Negro democratic forces in the last campaign, was called to New York to confer with party chieftains. While Mr. Rainey was silent on the matters discussed in the meeting of the "higher ups" and the exact purpose of his trip, it is said that a nation-wide campaign of organization would be launched and the National organizer would tour the country for the purpose of cementing the advantages already gained among Negroes. At Pow Wow Further significance is laid to the fact that when a great Democratic pow wow banquet, was held here at the Statler Hotel and Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York, a possible presidential candidate in 1932, was guest of honor, party leaders made great efforts to see that representative Negroes be present. Those Present Among those present at this banquet were: Dr. Silas F. Shag) Taylor, Negro State chairman; Dr. William Worthy, secretary; William Monroe Trotter; James Wolfe, attorney; Dr. Andrew Latimore, Dr. Walter O. Taylor, and others. Previous to this love feast, another banquet was held at the Railway club Negroes from all parts of the state were present. Former Mayor James M. Curley was the chief speaker. He told of his record of appointments ofNegroes high City offices in face of protests on the part of both white Democrats and Republicans, and the failure of Negroes to support him for the office. 13th Ward State Senator and City Councilor Michael J. Ward of the 13th Ward, which is over 2 to 1 Democratic, although the bulk of Negro voters of the State live in this ward, has repeatedly emphasized that he as Democratic "boss" of the world, would throw his entire machine back of any Negro in the ward who desires any elective office.

NEW YORK. — First news of the Platte, Nebraska race riot in which hundreds of colored people were driven from their homes was brought to H. J. Pinkett and the Omaha branch N.A.A.C.P. by a Pullman porter, member of the Porters' Brotherhood, it was announced this week. This early information enabled N.A.A.C.P. delegation from Lincoln and the governor's office the Saturday night of the fight, and call at the executive 1 anson, Monday. The prompt action of the Omaha and Lincoln branches of the N.A.A.C.P. resulted in the gathering of evidence through special investigators sent to North Platte by the Omaha Branch and in the protection of the lives and property of those Negroes who were run out, of the city. Pillage by the mob action of the officers from whom the Negroes were buying furniture on the installment plan who rushed in to seize the furniture were checked by the action of the N.A.A.C.P. Doubt Suicide There is some question in the minds of the colored people of Nebraska as to whether or not Louis Seeman, who is alleged to have committed suicide after killing a policeman, which act led to the rioting, really committed suicide. There is the suspicion that this man was murdered by the mob. More evidence to avoid liability under the anti-mob law which was passed by the 1927 Nebraska Leitlature. Rumors to this effect are being traced to their source to see if there is any foundation in fact for them. The National Office of the N.A.A.A. C.P. is following closely all developments and is prepared to render aid to its Nebraska branches who are cooperating with Attorney-General Sorenson to the end that the rioters may be convicted and sentenced to prison. U. S. Dollars Carry Prejudice Abroad Chicago Editor Says Even France is Afflicted PARIS, (ANP.) — American dollars are warping the attitude of France toward Negroes, according to a statement issued here Tuesday by Robert S Abbott, of Chicago, who with Mrs. Abbott is touring Europe. The statement, which was published in the Paris edition of the New York Herald Tribune, was in part as follows. "I am afraid that even the European liberality of spirit toward the Negro is to be affected by American money, which is the money which are greatly frequented by Americans They cater to the American taste in color just as to the American taste in food. I have seen Negroes barred in certain of these cafes recently — a thing which would have have been the war when Europe was sufficiently independent of America financially to insist upon her century-old liberality of feeling." 500 Farmers Attend Va.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, August 10, 1929 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 proceedings against her second husband and when court clerks, digging down in the dusty files of the Court Court, found that she had obtained a bill of separation only from Alney, and was, in fact, still his wife, instead of Brown's, whom she was seeking to divorce. Faced Bigamy Charge 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 decree of nullity in the case of husband No. 2, 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 obtained the separation decree from husband No. 1, she understood that she was being divorced. But since a second divorce proceeding was never instituted, she was told that she was still the wife of Alney, and had no right to marry Brown. Married in 1908 As Miss Lillian Brooks, she was married to Charles Alney on September 15, 1908, and the couple lived together until November 5, 1918. At this time, she says, she was compelled to leave her 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 partial divorce proceeded, 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 him. Extreme Cruelty In setting forth some of the cruel acts of husband No. 2, she declared that in order to make her suffer agony, he would come home evenings and describe amorous escapades and love affairs with other women. On one occasion, she said, he threatened to kill her with his weapon and cut her up in the form of her clothing. On June 20, she gave this and other testimony of cruelty before a special examiner and was granted the decree of nullity. On Friday she filed a new absolute divorce petition against husband No. 1. 2 IN TOWSON CRASHES TOWSON, Md.-Two suffered injuries as the result of automobile accidents here this week.

William F. Stone, Jr., son of the former colored an architect of the city, recently wrote the board: "Desiring to promote Christian character, as well as perpetuate my father's memory, especially in connection with such work, as long as I am able to do so; I should like very much to offer a prize of $10, subject to the approval of the board of managers, to be known as 'The William F. Stone Prize'; the award to be made at the end of each school year, to the pupil during the year, has demonstrated the greatest Christian character; the selection to be made in a manner suitable to the board of managers." "Anticipating the approval of my offer, I am inclosing my check herewith to cover the prize for this year." The late Rev. Dr. Birkhead, greatly beloved among the colored group was the chairman of the board of managers. Dr. Bragg, the vice-chairman, at present, the acting head.

NEW YORK—Having to share a husband with a few more or less wives is not so bad, is the opinion of Miss Sibuslusle Makanya, Columbia University co-ed, who is studying biological social hygiene and educational methods to take back to Imbumbulu, Natal, her native land. Miss Makanya declares that while her own father has but one wife, a number of her uncles have many, and that they are protected by laws of the tribe. Each wife has her own house, her own goats and personal property and is absolute boss there. She also has the say over her children. The young Zulu student, described in an interview in the World, is a modern, dainty and amiable girl dressed in smart attire and through whose lace vest shimmer pink silk underclothes. The Zulu are a happy and upright race, according to Miss Makanya. The girls are fond of adornment; they paint their lips and color their cheeks and lips with flowers to get the perfume. The men can be trusted to see them through a forest safely without thought of harm. The youth pick their own mates and courtship in Natial is the same as it is the world over, she says. EAT SNAKES. Admitting that Africans eat snakes the proud faced young student declared, "What of it? Do not Americans eat oysters? If we have found that snakes are good, do we have to wait until the white man puts his seal of approval upon them before we indulge?" Although embracing Christianity Miss Makanya did not have praise for what the white man brings along with Christianity and commerce. Proud descendants of slave servants are sometimes introduced to servants from women she says, but the Zulus are learning much from their contact with civilized groups and will take their place among the civilized nations of the world.

White Accepts Pastorate of Providence Baptist Church Here. WIFE BUSINESS WOMAN Operates Chain of Beauty Shops in Crescent City. NEW ORLEANS, La., (By Chisolm News Service.) — (Special) —Dr. E. W. White, pastor for the past twelve years of Tulane Baptist, leading church here, announced at his services Sunday that he had accepted a call to the pastorage of the Providence Baptist Church, Baltimore, Md. Consternation seized the congregation when he offered his resignation, effective October 2. With no dissension of any kind existent, the church and a year just closed with many big accomplishments, no one had any idea that the pastor was contemplating a change. Born and reared in Texas, he taught in the public school that state law required college education, prior entering the ministry. After several years of successful pastorate, Dr. White resigned as moderator of the Mt. Zion Baptist Association and president of the Texas Foreign Mission Convention to accept the pastorate of Tulane University, after entrusting the membership of the church has increased 700 per cent, and the financial holdings of the church, 300 per cent. As Bible instructor in the New Orleans Baptist Ministerial Conference, and in the State Sunday School and B.Y.P.U. Congress, he earned quite a reputation. Tulane Church is the only one to operate a large bus, costing $3,000, to transport aged members to the services, and over 100 children, otherwise inaccessible, to Sunday School each Sabbath. The bus also transports the famous shoestores and affairs, and during revivals an organ is placed in the bus and street services held in all parts of this large city. An ardent advocate of building Negro business enterprises to give employment to the young people but with no time to develop business himself. Dr. White's wife, Mrs. Eva B. White, daughter of the late Rev. W. B. Ball, veteran of the Civil War and former president of Guadalupe Texan College, organized and owns the most successful enterprises in New Orleans, the Mme. White Beauty College, in addition to a manufacturing concern and a string of beauty parlor's. She is superintendent of the Tulane Sunday School and an active member of her husband. She will accompany her husband to Baltimore but will not move her manufacturing business to that city. One Daughter Dr. White has one daughter, Miss Gladys, an accomplished musician and organist for the University of Howard University. For several years she taught in the New Orleans public schools. 6 | Trey Ea AAI Re NY ‘An Independent Weekly Newspaper A Champion of Civie Welfare and The Square Deal Sa ae, ian Te RA Rt ee anlar ata ach et ate ate Arno seat ates See a Rane Maer eee Hit MDT. ey SRP forse Mo sae Sad See eo ape i sac. os He eth Me Rnama an ARES Sees ds, ae vase | What The “AFRO” Stands For Sa nn, eras ARE ees werner, Pere St and at coe ee Te aa one for wont wncbere Fe era Cena ee ear mate rotate Seis ates ete CEPR Bains amone a ene enact Te re aa ees for eet sore ant tea * eae spat aan tae Be Sari ene THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER August, 1905. er su the Negro haters come from the South ony of them come 470m the North ‘For example, there {s one. ‘Superintendent Cros- by ‘whitey, 2 ‘Massachusetts man, who has sue- by jalan ie Captain Gesell, a8 superintend- eet of braid Hil Bark. ‘Seoeby wasn't here a year unt! he had made fe rule designating certain groves im the park for 2 ful ae ereriain ones for whit.

What Mr. Rutherford says, therefore, carries the welght of large experience. His inference 1s that the college graduate with the degree of AB, or AM. or even PhD. cannot compete with high school graduates in ‘writing insurance. . ‘Several months back these columns carried a similar statement from Mr. Anthony Overton, Chicago banker and manufacturer. ‘Mr. Kelly Miller, himself a product of the col- Jege, in his last week's article, on this page, said: "ave naturally look to the higher edu- cation to produce leadership and wise guidance for the masses. In all candor. {t cannot be claimed that this expectation has been fulfilled in the degree that was once hoped and claimed. The leader- sup of the race, in many important ines, 4s still in the hands of forceful per- sonaiities with energy, enterprise and initiative, often, without a technical lib- eral education.” For a situation like this the college is as ‘much to blame as the college man, Tis course of study 1s too general and impractical to be of much service to the Iad who must go to work as soon as he gets a diploma. Colleges are still teaching the same Latin, German, cajculus and English composition to students’ whether they plan to teach, to plow, to sell real estate or enter the ministry. Colleges everywhere are eager to train boys, the most of whom shun the ministry. ‘None of our colleges is able to train boys in buying and selling: and the country’s lack of men so trained {s its biggest problem. ‘Since the average college doesn’t train men for business, the business must train its own workers. ‘Nor is there any wonder that it prefers younger men who are willing to serve as apprentices. to college men who think themselves qualified to step at once into the higher positions, A.M.E.

Daniel, Carinal Gibbons Institute, Ridge, St. Mary's County, Md. My Dear Mrs. Daniel: T have your letter of July 16th. and I have read st very carefully. I think J understand your view- point and T recognize, of course, the merit of Some of your observations. However. in the in- ferest of the understanding between the races ‘which you seek there are one or two points I wish to call to your attention, ‘tis necessary to indicate in the news whether pertons mentioned are white or Negroes, Read- ts need that information, and since, the large majority of the population is white, and the large majority of those mentioned in the news is white ih would be foolish to designate the color of each person, The practical thing is to designate Ne- Erors es such when they are mentioned. The fuestion then arises what form the designation Shall take, Used Word “Colored” For many years it was a common practice to use the word “colored.” Some time ago repre- Sentations were made to us that members of your race would prefer the word “Negro” used with capital "N."" We have followed that practice. In some instances 1 believe i may appear harsh, ‘For example, I agree with you that the use of the word "Negress” after the name of the wife of the member of Congress from Illinois was un~ Pleasant as ft appeared In print. IL was not de~ Higned to be so; it was simply the result. of the rather too literal following of the rule which had eon made at the request of members of your race. No Satisfactory Formula I do not suppose that it 1s ever possible in s0 complex a elationship as that between the white people in this country and the Negroes to work but any formula which will be unvaryingly. sat- fstactory, but Is the purpose of The Sun to do all that is within its power to promote understanding and good feeling, and to foster mutual courtesy. ‘JOHN W. OWENS, Editor. ee Ee wae Ne August 1, 1929 Mr, John W. Owens, editor, “The Sun,” Baltimore, Maryland, My Dear Mr. Owens: Your letter of July 30th. just received. is en- couraging but not convincing, Americans are noted foF directness. We are ail Americans. Let us get to the point. Did any Negroes ever suggest to you that they preferred to have the prefix due every adult woman omitted where Negro women ‘were concerned?» Hardly. “Negro” Preferred Again, apropos of the “complex relationship” and of a “formula unvaryingly satisfactory,” it fs quite true that the term “Negro,” capitalized, is the term by which the great majority of! in- telligent. Negroes prefer to be known. It ts also true that the use of the term “Negress" is. gen- erally objectionable, and as used repeatedly by your paper. is offensively objectionable and wholly immecescary. Is Jt so hatd to say. “Mrs. De- Eres, wife of Ue Negro Congressman from Tk. hols.” or "Mr, DePriest, the Negro Congressman from iimols"? Ts it so necessary to “play up” to provinelal presudice by such crude allusions as ‘Phe Sun" has been constantly making to these and other Negroes? T cannot think, for instance that “The Sun” did not know that, the omission of the prefix in its Teferences to the Negro women members of the Tnlerraciel Commission was very pointed, or that it was quite simple for purposes of “information” to state that “the Negro members included Mrs. AW and Mrs, B—, Mr. C— and Mr. D—. She Doesn't Count I went into a "general store” a year or so ago, where some white prep-school boys were drinking sodas and indulging in some “snappy talk.” One dared another to an indecent exhibition, | The second boy glanced at me and hesitated. ' “Oh.” swaggered the first one, “she doesn’t count!" That is what omitting the prefix from the names of Negro, women means.” Tt means, "she doesn count.” T spoke quietly but sharply to the boys, and they got up and slunk out of the store. But did not blame them.

She immediately talked to Al Moore, a marvelous dancer, and the team was made. They opened at the Paraupat, a smart club in West 57th street, owned by Roger Wolf, son of Otto Kahn. Their success was glorious and they danced to the No Booking Agent One bright day, after much studying and many engagements, they decided to try Europe. Without a coat or an American agent, they entered Paris. One night while cabaretting at the Palmero, the gorgeous Al danced with a German Countess who begged that he do the popular American dance. He Freddie and in a spirit of fun did their "Black Bottom," a special arrangement which had been made for them by Chester Hale. It was a riot. The place was full of agents and the engagements began flowing in. All Over Europe Soon after that memorable night, they did a benefit for the American Legion at Gaumont-Paris and their friends at the American Legion returning to America, they played the Chateau Madrid, Paris, Gassanova, Berlin, Trocadero, Hamburg, Cafe de Paris, Monte Carlo, Dauphin, both cities and Damascus, and the Green Park Hotel, London. Private Parties Since their homecoming, they have spent most of their time entertaining the aristocrats on private parties. They have studied under Chester Hale and Constantine Kobleeff and have their dances staged by Chester Hale and Joe Hess. Their costumes for "Hot Chocolates" were designed by Joael Jean and James and Jean Patou, who created Miss Washington's gowns. **Irish-Halian** Miss Washington, who is of Irish descent, could be the interview without a bit of humor.

Moton, principal, declared the time has come for us to divide our voices. "The Negro no longer thinks in terms of the Republican party," he said.

Principal Moton traced the political history of the Negro from the time of the enactment of the war against the Negro in post-World War II reconstruction governments in which Negroes participated, analyzed the forces which have and still militate against the Negro in post-World War II reconstruction governments the Negro will come into his full share of the government of the country.

It is rumored that the elite will find the old Club Arabia the swanky place this winter. . ‘AS for vaudeville, however, the canned. acts have about driven {t from the smaller houses, so far as Baltimore is concerned. ‘There will be a larger number of colored acts on the screen this year, especially sing- ing, numbers and this will to some degree fill in the gaps left by the fading out of vaudeville. Last season saw an increasing hegira of the race musicals to down town mixed houses. Perhaps if the managers of these houses had the good judgment to take some of the sting of jim-crow out of their seat- thg arrangements, they would reap a harvest; for there are thousands of the -tired business men’s variety who are not quite satisfied with screen = ‘They still yearn for the “life” elements in their evening amuse- ments.

But if. the “talkies” are driving vaudeville and musical shows from the stage, they are leaving a gap which can well be filled by the little theatre ‘movement. ‘Last seacon, Baltimoreans showed that they could not only enjos but grow enthusiastic over artistic performances, and they had some- thing to enthuse over last season. Tf plans in the minds of several young Baltimoreans materialize and Professor Edmunds of Morgan College and his talented group of performers have the backing which audiences gave last year, Baltimore may be fav- ored_with regular performances of Tace-produced ' plays. = ‘Baltimore needs nothing just now more than she does a little thea- ze, and that is saying tot, We have no race art movements to, give that cultural tone without which a group loses its soul, We must not ‘only learn how to produce ood art, but we must learn to appreciate It. 1 the cultural tone of ‘colored. communities throughout the country was atune to artistic appreciation, Roland Hayes. for instance, would not have to play in jim-crow houses ‘and our best talent would not have to mold itself to suit the tastes of white America.

For the* most part our -spirituals have been so twisted by so-called technical treatment. and warped by quick stops and humorous effects, that they have become suited more for the vaudeville than the artistic stage. ; ‘But this is not true of the arrangements of Eva Jessye, director of the music in the forthcoming movietone production, “Hallelujah.” We have not yet had an opportunity, to see what Miss Jessye has done in “Hallelujah” and what Influence “direction” has had upon her work In| the gigantic production, but if she has followed the reproduction of the good old folk songs in ‘this play as well. as she has in “My Spirituals,” the movie world is in for the kind pf thrill which Rose McLendon gave in her “Porgy” sorrow wail. : Away back in the orgamless churches of a decade ago, and in some parts of the Southland today, you heard, and you miay hear, the real thing. Now and then the evangelist used to come along with a ballad designed to put punch into a revival, but these ballads were not splrituals in the undiluted form." In those spirituals which vibrated through the ‘heart and soul—and were more a soothing cry than even a religious ex- pression—there was feeling. It is thsi depth of understanding which Miss Jessye (with what is, in my opinion. a most ertistic presentation of the real old spirituals) has preserved fOr posterity in these wonderful eee’ Dunbar “Fis Captive Woman,” “Street An vel” “Overland Telerraph.” Ne ee eek ‘The Dunbar theatre presents, “His Captive Woman,” as the feature of the Monday and Tuesday programs of next week. “Dorothy Mackalll. cast 25 a vibrant, vagrant, and voluptuous woman, and Milton Sills, as a bitter and fearless he-man, are the featured players in this production which is @ dramatic story of 2 New York ‘‘jazz baby" who murders a millionaire and flees to the South Sees on the yacht of an- jother admirer. : ‘The story 1S simple, The murder is committed, the cop is sent to the South Seas to get the escaped mur- deress; he overcomes obstacles there to get her extradicted. but is | ship- wrecked en route home with his prisoner.

THE CREEPING THING A Story of Gruesome and Haunting Mystery THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY an interesting snapshot of Mrs. Herbert Hoover, wife of the president of the United States. America's First Lady — Mrs. Herbert Hoover is the adventurer. In all history of the White House there is no mention made of another who has had the variety of adventure which has befallen the loyal wife of the President of the United States. He has accepted its results without question and in her own charming, friendly, resourceful way. For Mrs. Herbert Hoover to live in the White House is but another adventure, the care she has taken to find her ready and capable. A life rich in romance, in contacts with many people, under many flags, living and working happily regardless of physical surroundings, is not to be disturbed by the social customs of the White House, criticisms of diplomatic turmps. In those days of California when Herbert Hoover was a senior in Lehigh University, Albo and Miss Lo Henry was a shy freeman, and the blue skies and the rolling foot hills, the whispering creeks of the campus stimulated their enthusiasm, enduring romance. Little did the son engineer see his road to fame through revolutions, wars and polls. The daughter did; the wife would to take her turn at a machine gun, assist in technical engineering problems, care for spinstered sons in desert and mountain areas, with the White House as a home. From the companionable little boy of Whittier, Louis Henry went to Monterey, and then to San Jose and Stanford University. When her father's banking hours were over, the two used to turn amateur geologists and together—for sister and mother were then—he seen for the first time the sand and from tin plates—would swing down the road over the foothills and even up into the high Sierra to camp and fish. This was the frequent program for Lou Henry to study geology until he began vacation made it possible to leave the campus. At college she was the first of her sex to join the masculine class in her study of geology. It was with these musings that the teacher offered difficult on field days in helping the onsite of the class over rocky ledges, across ravines. When out on the hike, and a rail fence ahead, she met the teacher of the class to it she placed one hand on the too and with a gay spring vaunted it over it easily and without greater difficulty than stepping on a broken piece of glass. From that time on Lou Henry was "regular." Such an incident is not important except as evidence of the independence and of resourcefulness always. First Lady of the White House. Of course, her love of the out-of-doors, formerly found its later expression in the Scout leadership, when she has called, "an adventure in camouflage." While Lori was completing her college, Herbert Hoover was out of action as a result of her efforts to establish himself in his chosen branch of mining engineering. When she left for Australia, he and the girl she engaged together were tacitly enraged by her decision the chance to go to China under the Chinese government's demands of mines and railways, she came to the program to Monteverde, California, where she worked at home. Her role went white-hat to him and soon she was sent a ocean to get the girl who mutual friends declared "was made for him." In China an adventure claimed them in China, at their arrival was follow-up to a trouble, which had lonely to shortly be brewed, sent Mrs. Hoover, with checks fivine home on her bourne body to save her home from her bourne body was this same home when she later went to Hoover were in Tientsin when the violent revolution overtook them. The slogan was "death to the foreign devil," and the great pow- nationalists. There was need of self- siders had difficulty in protecting their protection and every foreign group banded together to ward off the dang- er. Mrs. Hoover and her engineer hus- band found immediate need for their resources. While he was busy organiz- ing the city's defenses, his bride took command of hospital and relief agencies. He was almost constantly under fire. With rice sacks for barricades, every one kept out of the line of fire as much as possible. It was here that the present author, Lady learned of a whistling shell and the whine of a spent bullet. Serving in any capacity necessary and even manning a machine gun, she spent long hours in warding off the troops of the great powers to rescue them. It was during this period that the Box- ers reported her death. For she was a leader and a marked woman, later days she served in the troops long "obituary" that was published in a newspaper while Tientsin was under siege. While the club for foreign women was turned into a hospital, Mrs. Hoover and others cared on their nursing and without medicines or anesthetics. "We got back and forth between our homes and the club by creeping along close to the high walls of the compound, where we opened the open corners by shooting past on bicycles." Once at that time, she encountered a group of Cochlear Institute Ligation, in the very act of locoting her house. They reacted to her housewifely anger, however, by dropping everything they had in their hands and escaping with what they had stowed in their pockets. At another time friends found her in the midst of shrieking shells over her home, calmly going home, and then through a part of the bedroom that she had just vacated, she went to another part of the house, without panic or visible nervousness. She then moved through a part of the bedroom that now graces the White House. She has shared with her husband enough adventures for several thrilling stories. Yet, she still remains the charming companion of her friend. Living under many unusual conditions, she has maintained her genial disposition. Mrs. Herbert covers the lover of her sister, who the unafraid under shell-fire, is also the inveterate homemaker. She creates homes one after another around the world. In Peking, in revolution-form, she is the only resident white woman—in Tokyo, Lengren, or St. Petersburg, as it was then; in Kalgari and Broken Hill Australia; in romantic Mandalay, and in between London and Paris. The homes, wherever they were, breathed a spirit of rest and satisfaction. All were, as one guest put it, "as American as they could through them all in the motif of the eventual real home — the permanent home for which, from the first, treasures, mostly books were collected—Mrs. Hoover, the immortal day spent overkindling the romantic days spent the Stanford campus. Before Herbert, Jr., the elder of the two children, was four years old. he had circled the earth three times. That steady concern gave her young son's diet, for the stopping places were often remote spots, where milk was apt to be doubtful. Even the soa, she remembers, was not any too reliable. When she did not dum ahr her spirits. When, as still a young mother with a baby in arms for which to provide on a long journey to some little known outpost of civilization, she deterred prepared and thus went out to con- prepare and thus went out to con the best baby specialist to be found. That physician was somewhat bewildered by his caller. He was not used to such practical mothers. Mrs. Hoover took notes on her notebook and pencil! She explained that what she wanted was not a consultation but a lecture. She sat there and took notes on his discourse for the trip and she took with her cases of the appropriate food for the coming months. It has always been this faculty of facing the thing needed, of being able to help. I remember Mrs. Hoover has made Mrs. Hoover the unusual woman that she is to-day. And in the eyes of President Hoover, the perfect companion. Girlhood friends of Lou Henry are friends still. They remember her as a teacher. We all, principal of one of the Brooklyn high schools, a college friend and close intimate, says that "Mrs. Hoover has that wonderful gift of always getting at the essentials and never lussing over trial thirteen." Mrs. Allan remembers the time when the two Hoover sons were small boys and all were leaving shortly on one of the round the world mining trips, and Mrs. Allan sailed. Mrs. Hoover happened to mention in an off-hand manner to Mrs. Allan that her laundry had not been delivered. She never referred to it again, and Mrs. Allan remained with her until the ship pulled out. Mrs. Allan was the one who Hoover went sailing off with a happy smile, waving to all friends on shore. "There was that woman going around the world with two children and not a stitch of clean clothing," asserted Mrs. Allan. "I don't know another person to help me, but be willing to make a scene, willing to bet that Mr. Hoover never knew a thing about it and I know right well that she managed to get clean clothes for those children before the day was over. That's how much they are manage and with no fuss." When the World War broke out and the need was evident for instant relief, first for stranded ours, first for the war giants, it was as natural for her to take the lead in her own circle as for him in his. Scared Americans were pouring into London, destitute of their deserts, then at the English capital. At a meeting of the Women's Division of the Relief Organization Mrs. Hoover started the colony of the Hoovers and opened our own purse into the basket. Then she said, "Let's begin. Let's all go down to the station and meet them." They did as she suggested and thus began a campaign to the world the never known. During the course of the war and when President Wilson called Herbert Hoover to take charge of the food supplies, Mrs. Hoover was acclaimed the "world's never known." To his work the "Cash and Carry" slogan, and she invented the famous Hoover apron. In all the work connected with the war, Mrs. Hoover was acclaimed freely. There was no fuss, just work She wanted no publicity. It is this kind of a woman who is now First Lady, Knowing the importance of others who have served in that capacity, she still retains her friendliness and good nature. She has a friendly smile and a generous desire to serve. She has a kindness to be trained as a keen observer. She is tall, graceful, and possesses a magnetic disposition. There is a vibrancy about her, there is a radiance about her, there is warmth in her handclasp that quickens enthusiasm. Mrs. Hoover's face is not the proverbial open book. At times it is most inscrutable and not infrequently mischievous. Sometimes it bears an expression that makes one wonder whom the joke is on. One who knows that hurts, Her humor is never satiate. If she is amused at a social custom or a misunderstanding resulting in an awkward situation, it is outright funny, but is never laughed at as a folble. She has so many enthusiasm that when the joke is never just "social." When Intimate woman friends call for a cozy visit at the White House they almost always find her snuggled up in the corner of a sofa. There she is accustomed to squat, with her legs, curled up under her, and knotted, curled up under her, that the girl who loved to roam the hills, play baseball, willing to befriend those who were in trouble, has become the First Lady of the Land besides a scientist, a linguist, an amateur architect, an accomplished sportswoman, a free man, not detracted from her sympathetic understanding of those about her. Recently Mrs. Hoover remembered a sick friend by sending as a present an odd tropic fruit, a lemon, to the letter accompanying it she was careful to say—at length—just how the core of this fruit should be prepared, should be mixed with apple or celery for salad. The letter was specific and friendly, which is typical of this First Lady and her interest in the tropic fruit, which, in reality make a lady first. The gifted wife of a distinguished husband has a difficult role if she is to keep her own eyes widening his. This is demanded of President's wives even in this day of equality. They must be in the middle foreground but never in the background, to follow their illustrious consorts and help along in matters of state. They have to know the gravest secrets and not whisper one of them to their dearest in the face of tact, discretion and unfailing charm. There is no doubt whatever that Mrs. Hoover by reason of temperament and long experience, earns as much as any feminine occupant of the White House ever has. The social duties of the First Lady are largely determined by precedent and by custom. There are certain functions to be observed, dinners to give and other details that have become a part of the White House atmosphere. When she is when the President's wife must exercise her own judgment and use her sense of fairness. In such matters it is safe to say that the First Lady will always be found doing that which is natural to her to do in the light of early education, and her own sense of fair play. Those who know Mrs. Hoover could other course than that chosen when The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, August 10, 1929 she invited the wife of Representative DEpriest of Illinois to tea. There could be no hesitation on her part. She had been a long-time leader of what is right and proper, her education that embodies a world of travel and culture, would dictate her doing as she did. Whether Mrs. Hoover consulted customer advice, she cannot be known. It is significant to know that in all the criticism that has followed the extending of the White House hospitality to Mrs. DEpriest, not once did she find the precedents and good judgment of history in the matter. Being the kind of woman that she is, with tact, education, and culture, she can not find the necessary defiance an act that she feels needs no defense. It is true that history will substantiate the claims of those who point out that Mrs. Hoover did not impede or impredenced, when she officially had as one of her guests to tea Mrs. DEpriest of Chicago, whose husband is the first Negro Congressman in the United States, the first of his race from the North. There are many residents of Washington today who well remember the social amenities enjoyed by the children of the city and other Negro families prominent in the official life of the Capital. In striking contrast to its present mood, the South in those days raised no "social equality" issue and appeared in communication with complicacy and calm. There are old Washingtonians and their descendants who recount that United States Senator Hiram R. Browne, a former guest at the White House during the administration of President Grant. Both the Senator and Mrs. Revels were educated and refined and those who knew them were united of their friendship with them. The Negro senator from Mississippi, B. K. Bruce, born a slave, who was in the upper house six years, was raised to himself and wife than any race couple ever to appear in official Washington's Who's Who. Their social contacts were not merely official, but personal, and grew out of mutual personal reference. Mrs. Bruce, who was comely, of light complexion, tall and stately, not only attended social functions at the White House, but was known to have stood in the receiving room of President Hayes. Senator Bruce later served two terms as register of the treasury and one as recorder of deeds. Throughout their official life the Bruces were conspicuous at receptions, dais, for the president, for their entertaining, for they believed in returning the compliments. They lived for a long period in a five-story brownstone house in an exclusive section of Washington, near Connecticut avenue. They were also Senator Stewart and Thomas Nelson Page, among their neighbors. When her husband was in the Senate, r.Ms. Bruce had her carriage and coachman and called on the man to customize. Mrs. Bruce numbered among her best friends the wife of General J. A. Logan. The Bruces spent most of their time in London they were presented to Queen Victoria and entertained by United States diplomatic representatives at London and Paris. Senate Mrs. Bruce had her carriage and coachman as closest friend L. Q. C. Lamar, of Mississippi, an aristocrat and a member of one of the State's oldest and best families. The spectacle of the two men walk Virginia avenue is remembered. It is no secret that C. H. J. Taylor, a Negro of intellectual attainments, was a frequent visitor at the White House the first time Grover Cleveland met him. That when Cleveland wanted to temporarily forget the cares of state and warmest admirers was Senator after a strenuous day, he would invite his friend to drop in for an hour or so. The counselor, Mr. Taylor, was able to impress the high esteem in which Cleveland held Taylor was indicated when he named him as Minister to Bolivia. As stated, no one knows if Mrs. Hoover was made a minister. If Mrs. Hoover was made a minister, it possible that her student mind remembered them. Regardless of whether she recalled such points of history or not, her essential nature, her good sportsmanship, her belief in equality and justice would not have allowed her to be the did. From the time when she was willing to help her colored friends in school with their lessons, to her elevation to the White House, she has always taken the same path. It is most unlikely that something that could be imagined would cause her to do otherwise. With such evidence of Mrs. Hoover's nature, it is still interesting to note that twenty-one Negroes have held seats in Congress between the fortieth and fifty-sixth sessions of the United States Congress, given they have attended social functions and have deported themselves with becoming dignity and restraint. They merely accepted the complimentary considerations to which they were entitled by reasons of position and ability. They fortune for America that there is in the White House those in charge who appreciate these things and have a sturdy Americanism, unafraid, fair, just. DoYouKnow What Was the Oregon Trail? From the backbone of the Rockies to the heart of the Oregon Country, "comprising what is now Washington, Oregon, Idaho and a part of Montana and Wyoming, occupied only by a few scattering trappers and hunters. From 1842 there began a constantly increasing tide of emigrants per year, and this land of promise. Their mode of conveyance was mostly by covered wagon (Prairie Schooner"). The trail extended in a general northwesterly direction, a distance of 2,000 miles, from Independence, Mo., to the Columbia River, and the Columbia River. It eroded northeastern Kansas, southern Nebraska, diagonally across Wyoming, across Idaho to the headwaters of the Columbia and along its course to Ft. Vancouver. The same one used for California as far as soda Springs in eastern Idaho. At this point the California trail struck southward. A I looked at him long and searchingly. . .

But—the next day that body is stolen from the undertaking establishment, presumably the old man, Selwyn mother is a Italian vodka priestess, the bodies are a Italian vodka priestess, the disappearance of old Men's body, an Indian scalp knife is found with a few strands of hair attached to its blood-covered body. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. Diaron paused and looked around again. He dropped his voice even lower. We had to bend forward to catch his next words—"Maybe for the service of the marmalo, who is the owner of the man who come from—away. They are maybe ZOMBIES." I was puzzled. "And what may zombies, be?") I asked, somewhat impatiently. To have come all this time to own a man I would be a leading clew only hear a long rambling tale from an old man, based probably on some impossible superstition, was indeed, aggratulating. Besides, the trip and the story had taken a purported success of which might depend upon the speed with which it could be prosecuted. Al Jarton snorted — literally "Hell, he said, "the all you chasers born do you know that?" Look here Something in old Dilaron's eyes as he turned them on us stooped Al. It was an expression that defied description. He turned on the excited egotism of the fool who proudly boasts that he does not believe in God, or an ignorantus who insists that the world is flat because he can see it and anything he can see he knows is so. The glance came. I felt unhappy. I felt ashamed and just a bit like a child who has been rebuked by an elder for ignorant boasting. Aggressively and in a louder and more emphatic tone, to cover my momentary embarrassment, Ignorantly repeated my question: "What are these Zombies that must have some unknown connection with Haitian graveyards, and why are they so important to me, perhaps because I wish with this Creeping Thing mystery and with old Era Selvyn's octagonal room with its murders going on while we listen perhaps to take it out in speech. The exposition of disdainful and yet tolerant wisdom in diarion's eyes, deepened. He looked up at me straightly. A monstrous dignity seemed to envelop him. Zombies "Zombies," he said slowly and distinctly, "are human corpses without souls, yet living and alive. They are usually taken from the graves, monster, before the what you call rot, come. The evil mama — or papa-lou he make me mess with, and that he walks as you and me. He makes it work in the fields or in the house or maybe do his crime he wish not to do himself. It is very hard to do. He looks at me. The old man maussed and looked at me quite calmly. - I gasped. The absolutely unthinkable weirdness of the explanation food, bread and robbed me a sensual retreat. - "What the hell?" - Al, with the usual poverty of expression of the man who lives utterly and who is not afraid of materially-minded, blurred out his stock ejaculation for any any emotion beyond the ordinary. - You not believe? Diarrhea goes on. You press his hands expressively. His eyebrows went up. A quizzical look behind which lay a hopelessness of our man, who spread slowly over his black face. Something in his manner compelled my serious attention to his wild tale. At least there might be something in his superstition that would help it, the ones who held it. Garland Selwyn was a Jatian. He had undoubtedly been reared in the Haitian jungles where voodoo was the very life of the people. His mother was a Jatian, and her superstition was prevalent no matter how impossible in fact might it not have motivated in some terrible way, the acts of those imbued with it? Maybe, after all, there might be a clew here. He was more about Zombies, Diavon. I said, and my voice was respectful. "More? What more? Why, if you no believe? It is not nice talk of Zombies. It is not good talk; it is evil. I only talk to help and you no believe." His tone was suspicious and dangerous, near a war zone that seemed to quarrel but nevertheless held itself aloot and superior. "But, Dionar." I spoke placatively. As he closed up I became more and more convinced that there might be knowledge of. "You must understand that to us, who have never heard of such things the first mention of zombies must necessarily be hard to believe, but knowledge can hardly blame us if we have never known of such things, nor ever heard of them, if we do not take it all in at first. Come, now Dionar, and help me in clearing up in the help of the Creeping Thing and the murders in the octagonal room, speak up and tell us. I tlled pledge you and help me and—if well, anyway, let us have more information about them." I paused and looked at him hopefully expectant. I saw the lines about his alma. A drew in his breath and opened his lips. I mudged him surreptitiously. I wasn't going to have any remark from Al bailing up things just as I was getting the roughness ironed "As I tell you, the evil mamaloi or papaloi he use the zombies he make for many things. Sometimes he sell them to work in the fields of others—far away from the place where they live. This is so the relative, the mother or father or brother, maybe not see them and know them. For when relatives find zombies, he maybe kill the civil worker. So zombie much better if he made from bodies far away from homeplace of anybody he knew, so we keenly, searching for any evidence of levity or sneering 'unbelief. Our expression seemed to satisfy him completely. "The zombie, he not like soulbody. He must have only boulle without salt or the plantains boiled in clear water for his eat. For if once he taste salt he will die and the zombie will die corpse and he hurry back to graveyard, or maybe sometime he drop where he is and there is things that we may not speak of then; it is too horrible. Also everybody who sees the zombie who has taste salt he know he is but dead man and no live. Well—maybe perhaps if papaulo can be dead body and can take them back to homeland as zombie then he can do what he please, for no one know they are zombie and as long as he watch carefully that they get no salt in their mouth, they will evil papalian in making magic for make people do what papalio wish or—maybe kill people, especially if he be big, strong zombie. "I am a sudden possibility of this belief in the distorted imagination of one of the followers of the evil cult, and what it might lead to, bore in on my mind, Diaron look up quickly and pause. "BIG AND STRONG." I repeated the words "BIG, STRONG. Why, Alene Hardware was a gianettess and her strength I stopped and I went back at Jared. Jared was back at Diaron. They were both staring back at me with wide eyes. Diaron, with something of satisfaction at the perspicacity of a favorite pupil evil papalian, made a careful look of tristened possibility. "Do you know where Garland Selwyn hangs out around here, Diaron?" I asked. A sudden discussion bizarre and impossible this wild story, I was going to hunt along the lines of the belief of the islanders in the possibility. What I should find, new not known, was determined to make a rough sketch. "At first he stopped at the Beak House up on Maine street, but when I telephoned in for him this morning Miz Beal she telephone back out last night and take his theergs she say with him. He tell her he no come back again that night. She say a strain a woman—old and funny and she says she has not even although she not have seen her before. He leave her outside in the little side lobby when he pay his bill and say she is one who just come in and see her. He tells something that have something to do with Selwyn House. "He tell Miz Beal he go to investigate, maybe be back in a day or two. She's keep his room on her big money so she keep it. These things I think over and then I know that maybe strange woman be zombie and maybe he have some more zombies to kill you." Dion stopped abruptly. I looked at him long and searchingly but it was as if a curtain were pulled down over his old expressionless black shirt to the room's silence, stood with open mouth guzzling blankly from one to the other of us. Sven his customary ejaculation could be justice of these things that he had just heard. Uncertainty My mind was whirling in an attempt to come to some definite conclusion as to what action he could make. Where should I turn? How should I start? Then suddenly-"She is keep his room for him—he pay her big money. And it. A search of the Real House was the first logical step. I heaved a long sigh of relief. Action at last. I wanted to be doing something, and this offered the first step. What the next step would be was dependent on what I might or might not turn up in the investigation of that hotel room. "May I use your telephone here, a minute. Dilaron, quarrel." "But man was profusely conscientious." The old man was profusely courteous in his permission. I gave Alec's home call. "3423. J." in answer to the operator's "number, please." I said, when his well-known hall came from the other end of the wire. "I want you to meet me over at the Beal House in about a half hour. I am out to the old Selwyn and see what you are the trail of a few possibilities that may lead somewhere. When you go over to the Beal House inquire about casually about this guy, Garland Selwyn, and see what you are going to see him on some business. If he happens to be there stall around and keep him. If not, see if you can find out anything about his movements last night and this morning, and any visitors he may have had. I talked without interruption, for Alec was one of those rare souls who know how to listen to instructions without interruption. We were marked was, "all right, old scout, I get you," and then he hung up. I went back to Al who was just getting his first whole breath. "Come on, Al," I encouraged, "think you have to be careful down to the Beal House?" Hope you don't eat any salt on the way, though. If I hadn't known how dumb you looked all your life, I take you for a zombie. That's what you look like, and my grim, pleasantly with a wan smile, as he climbed into the car and took the wheel. "Do you think there can be anything in that tale, Tom?" were about ten minutes away on our town-ward journey, when the question that had been roaming around in the far reaches of his mind. "We'll soon know, Al," I answered, and there was a queer feeling of uncertainty, heart that made my uncle heart unaware. No further word was spoken till we drew up before the big, two-storied, colonial house that was sometimes known as the Beal House, but we were not exactly a hotel, but for the more discriminating visitors that came to the small town, the widow Beal's home was a hostery par ex-communal. We used the great knocker on the door that led into the front hall. The small maid answered it. The maid was the reason many of the Beal House as a hotel. It was not the usual thing for the folks of this independently upstanding community to have servants. Most of the women in the house-work. "Nobody can do my cleaning to suit me," was a stock remark of the neat housewives of the place. He sat behind the door I saw Alec's hat hanging on the rack. Beal House kept up the tradition of being a private house by receiving and treating the casual guest, who came in sometimes for a cup of tea. I knew I would find Alice in the well-appointed dining room seated at one of the small side tables toying with a cup of tea or coffee. As Al and I walked in, Alice looked on and sat down in it, but I knew he had some information for me. I crossed to the table and pulled out one of the two chairs and sat down with a casual greeting and a motion to Al to pull up one of the chairs from a neighbourhood. He did not know who had admitted us now come forward in her other guse of waitress. "What can I do for you, gentleman?" she said in her happiest manner. "A cup of tea, Annie," I smiled up at her pleasantly. (Continued next week.) ETIQUET Q. What is the most fashionable hour of the day for dinner? A.

EXPECT PITCHERS' DUEL Rector and Yokely Are Probable Pitching Choices. The Lincoln Giants, of New York, riding in third place in the American League, will be here Sunday in an attempt the winning streak of the league-leading Black Sox, in a twin-bill at Maryland Park. Local fans are promised a thrill when Connie Mason, leading pitcher of American loop, and Layon Yokel, Black Sox ace, hook up, in what should be one of the greatest mound duels seen here season. These two pitchers are considered the strongest in the league by originated. and, Journoy will no doubt be chosen by Manager Warfield to handle the assignment in the nightcap, and it is probable that he will be faced by Holland. The visitors will be some heavy hitters in the Smith, outfielder, who is now leading the league, who are average of 487, in addition to holding the home run run: Rojo, Scales, Riggins, Gray and Pon Lloyd. Cubans Beat Them The Black Sox, however, feel confident that the big bats of the New Yorkers can be silenced and point to the series victory of the Stars over the Mets in New York Sunday. The Monday. The Pomp aggression took two of the three games in the Keenanmen and the locals are counting on taking two contests. Black Sox pitcher, who in his time has hurried many a strike over the plate, doesn't get the job he used to, as most of his time is now taken up helping Manager Warfield and in coaching the younger player, the fine points of his playing pastime. Dixon. Wilson. Washington, and Lundy are all hitting the pitcher and the opposing pitcher, hitting safe and hardly. Two victories over the Lincolnists will entrench the Westport gang more firmly in their position at the top of the American League and it is much easier for Rossiter who is the winning pitcher by the Sox will eliminate the necessity of having a play-off to decide the eastern title. Force, who is a right hander, started his baseball career with the Knoxville College nine, and when graduated he played for the Chicago Giants, later transferring to the Chicago American Giants as a pitcher and outfielder. His stay there was short as the same season he went to the Detroit Stars. He was a member of the Sox in 1924 and it looks as if he'll be here a long time yet.

COMEDY-DRAMA SEEN AS SOX WIN 2 GAMES Local Nine Defeats Philly Giants, 17-6 and Santop's Broncos, 14-4. ERRORS ABOUND Bronco Outfielder Quits When He Misses Fly Ball. Spectators at Maryland Park Sunday saw the Black Sox move their artillery on the field and mow down two Philadelphia teams, the South Philadelphia Giants, by a 17 to 6 score, and Santop's Broncos, by a 14-4 verdict. The first game was truly a comedy, as the Sox, with their eyes peeled, kept the Nordic boys running around the diamond, trying to reach their hits. In the first two innings the Sox had placed nine runs to their Blake, pitcher of the visiting team, was switched to first base for Swigler, who was substituted on the mound. He fared a little better than his predecessor, allowing eight runs in the remaining six. Smith, a new starter, worked the entire game, allowing only ten scattered hits, while the local aggregation knocked the two Philadelphia hurriers for a total of eighteen hits. Second Game The second game was a repetition of the first, when the Box toop topped the box, and the box was thrown around at their mercy. The Box scored two runs in the opening frame of the night cap. The Box scored three in the third inning that netted them ten runs. The fans were rewarded with a little fun when Wilson and Washington stole home in the ninth inning, in place of the pitcher, who missed the ball in his hand, unaware of their game attempts. The next humorous incident came when Washington knocked a pop-up to left field and Richard missed the pellet and quit the field in disgust. SOUTH PHILA.

PHILADELPHIA. — Following an alteration with President Eduardo M. Rosales on Thursday, Paul Stevens club last shortstop, turned in his uniform and is said to have returned to New England to rejoin Dan McGee, his co-plain-club. President Bobley immediately suppended him and issued the following statement: "Stevens has been suspended in the club. He will be allowed to play again until the league has acted in his case. When Stevens jumped the Grassie he was the one who them $208 in the club on debt. He will be club for money advanced to him last. When he was reinstated by the Grays and traded to Hildale five weeks ago, condition of the deal with the club debts to the two clubs. He agree to do this. When his first pay day came around we took out a portion of the money due and due the rest of the debts to the two clubs. He agree did not intend to pay the bills. He also demanded that we pay him for the two and one-half months he was on duty and of course, we were on duty and of course, we were abused and insulting language. "Steyens owes the Hildale club more than he can ever repay. He drew a good salary from us and sat on the bench for years. He has been a trouble-maker ever since he began playing. He has grave injustice to the many local players on the team to allow him to get away with this. Men Must Pay Up "Hilldale may be throwing away its chances to win the second half pennant but the time has come for us to put principle above victory and to win the game in the Thursday game we were willing to make concessions to him but our corporation has now decided that ball players must deliver the goods pay their debts and be gentlemen or seek elsewhere for employment. "Hilldale, and I am sure all other league clubs, are through with slackers and cheaters." CALVARY BEATS CADETS By Aubrey J.

RUSSELL, Principal Lawrenceville, Virginia AFRO TOURNAMENT TO START MONDAY AFRO TOURNAMENT TO START MONDAY City and County Players to Swing into Action in First Annual Tourney. MANY DARK HORSES Annapolis Group to Play Baltimore, Saturday. Horseshoe pitchers all over the state will swing into action Monday, when the AFRO'S first annual tournament will get under way. Baltimore contestants and those in the counties will launch the competition that is to decide the best twirler of the iron luck tokens by the first of September. Interests in the tournament, since the AFRO first announced in six weeks ago, has grown at a rapid rate, and from the present view of the barnyard golf situation in the state, there is going to be some keen competition before the last shot is pitched. Not So Easy Regardless of whether the pitching stake is called the "peg," "meg," or "neg," horseshoe pitchers are going to find that getting the range from a 40-foot distance with a pair of heavy shoes, is not going to be as easy as it might be. The pitchers seem to fall into three distinct groups, namely, those players who may be termed as ringer pitchers; those who are consistent in pitching close shoes, and those who release the shoes from their hands to let them land as best they may. A survey of the various courts shows that there are many players who will not be bothered by the rule six inches of the peg in order to which requires shoes to be within score. On the regulation clay court, the player that releases that it will slide off or roll, six inches of the peg, there is little as the clay will hold it in place. One Game In Baltimore districts the eliminations will consist of one game for each contestant during the first round. After this elimination, the tournament committee will announce the number of games to be played in the remaining rounds. As far as possible, a game shall consist of 21 points. Inter-City Meet So interested have horseshoe pitchers in Annapolis become in the tournament that a team of them will journey to Baltimore, Saturday, to play a select group of Baltimore tossers on the Druld Hill Park courts in the afternoon. They will be of the nature, a little inter-city tournament and should give a good chance to compare the comparative strength of contestants in the two cities. The AFRO tournament is on, and may the best man win! Clubs desiring special regulation shoes may get them through the AFRO-AMERICAN. Ordered 20 pair lots the shoes will cost $10.00 pair, pair in lots 10 and 5, they may be obtained at $1.00 and $1.25 per pair, respectively. If only one pair is bought the cost will be $1.50 plus postage. Groups will find it economical to cooperate in buying their shoes.

DIXON MAKES 14 STRAIGHT HITS "Rap" Dixon, sterling outfielder of the Baltimore Black Sox, set a record for consecutive hits when he amassed 14 straight blows in four games against theressed Grays and the Hilldale club. He finally stopped by Dale Cooper, of Clan Darble, last Thursday. Dixon, formerly of the Harrisburg club, is one of the most feared hitters in baseball, and will be a formidable contender for the batting honors. While Dixon has leaped to the lions, has topped the league for most of the season, Dixon, Beckwith, Charleston, Dihigo, Judy Johnson, Jud Wilson and Buck Ewing are all potential leaders. CAN'T SECURE GOOD UMPIRES, MOGUL SAYS George Rossiter, Sox Owner, Explains Absence of Race Arbiters Here. GLAD TO USE THEM Says Players and Fans Kick on Present Crop. "I have not used race umpires at Maryland Park because I've had no competent ones, but if any first-class arbiters apply, I'll be glad to use them." Thus spoke George Rossiter, white, owner of the Baltimore Black Sox, when questioned as to why race umpires were not used at the Black Sox Park. Mr. Rossiter declared, had entered to bar race officials from his park. Players, Fans Kicked "I have used Negro umpires in some of the pre-season games," the local baseball magnate continued, "and I had numerous squawks from players and fans. Players said that they would not stand for the use of the men in these games, an league contests. "Surely, they had race umpires at Hildale for a while, but they soon had to get rid of them because of their inefficiency. This is not the fault of the men, however, but is just an unfortunate circumstance. The colored umpire does not have the advantage that the white umpire has, in passing from wrist ball to the minor, and then to the major. He must come just as the average player does, from the sand lot right to the 'big show' and as a result of his inexperience is not able to deliver the goods." Too Much Familiarity Continuing his explanation the local mugel pointed out that the manner in which race umpires generally made themselves familiar with the players, marred their opportunity to give unbiased decisions. This familiarity, he explained, is not experienced between the white umpires the players, and nonwhite the players look to him to give fairer work. No umpire is infallible he hastened to explain, but until better race umpires are developed fans and players alike, he believes, will insist on the use of white umpires. Mr. Rossiter asserted that he could only recall one umpire who had applied to him for league and he had considered incompetent for the job. "Til he glad," he said, "to turn Negro umpires at any time they prove competent. Until that time I can't do a thing else." GANS GETS DRAW NEW YORK—Baby Joe Gans, the California ace, and Sergt. Sammy Baker, white, slugging soldier welterweight from Mitchell field, fought ten rounds to a draw in the Queensboro stadium, here Tuesday. Gans got off to a good lead and in the second round, dropped Baker for the count of seven. Baker gained his points in the closing. two rounds. Fight scorers gave each of the fighters three rounds, with the other four even. Baker weighed 143½ and Gans 142. The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, August 10, 1929 The Passing Review By BILL GIBSON POCOMOKE CITY. Md.-When district horseshoe pitching champions gather in Baltimore, a few weeks hence, to decide state supremacy, the Eastern Sho' region. If present indications mean anything, should be well up in the money. And this is not an idle conjecture, for after traveling through miles of this fertile agricultural region, and seeing youth and age twirl the iron luck tokens, one does not have to wonder long why this is said. In this secure township, bathed by the waters of the Pocomoke river, baseball has been the leading outdoor sport, but it will be rivalled soon by the great game of barnyard golf. Grizzled farmers, who long since had laid aside the equine footwear for the less strenuous game of this, dominate the farmers, have heard the call of the AFIOS in the pitching tournament, and they, with the husky farm youths who thrive in abundance all along the Sho' will match strength and skill in an attempt to decide the district championships. John McKinley Schofield, well known local follower of sports, will have charge of the district tournament here. At Salisbury the blacksmith shops are having a hard time keeping shoes on hand, so insistent have been the requests for them. Business and professional men have joined hands in keeping interest in the tournament at fever heat, and if Salisbury boosters are to be believed, the championship might as well be conceded now to the Salisbury entry. As you have probably guessed, J. F. (Jim) Stewart, the undertaker, is going to be chief of this district, and Jim—if he pardon our reference to him in this manner—is going to make him, and Salisbury boosters will be pleased with this is said. Salisbury boosters of some old-timers who are past Masters in the art of flipping the horse slippers, and while we did not see all of them in action, we'll take Jim's word for the rest. When you've pitched against such competition as that afforded by Spencer Quinton, William J. Dashelli, H. H. Dashelli and Mr. Stewart, himself, you can form your own opinion. Of course these are just a few of the aces, for over in the California suburban territory and other contiguous territory there are scores of horseseers pitchers who have taken solemn oaths to uphold the fair name of Salisbury. Around at the Elks' Home and on various lots in Salisbury one finds plenty of activity. Baseball is taken a temporary slump in and in the competition with horsesseers and at the same time win a prize for doing so, has proved very attractive to lovers of outdoor sport. And by the way, we almost forget to tell you that the boys down here have a dark horse, in the form of a minister, who is said to be mighty good. And let us say now that he's practicing every day on a private court in his own yard. Whenever horseshoes are mentioned in Cambridge, one immediately thinks of the Seymour family, around on Washington street. Here in the Seymour yard, the pick of the town's pitchers gather. Up the street lives Jack Henry, and Jack has a gang that can pitch horseshoes, too. So it appears that the Cambridge championship will be decided by bringing these two groups together. The rivalry is keen and interest in the tournament, slow in getting warm, is now approaching a rather torrid temperature. All up and down Pine Street and on High street too, one on heart discussion of the coming tournament. Candelup growers, proud of their crop, most of these entrants are equally proud of their ability to toss the horses' boots and you don't have to use ear phones to hear the conversation. Once the most popular sport in Cambridge, horseshoe pitching, with the stimulus of the AFRO's tournament, has come out of the doldrums, and is now dancing around on both feet, well and hearty. Can they pitch horseshoes in Annapolis? we asked, and we were not startled when the answer came, "Man, that's what we can't do nothing else but in this town." Still we were skeptical . . . we wanted to see more. Sembly, they said . . . works down at the Naval Academy . . . rings three out of five . . . beat everything in light, white and black at Poughkeepsie, N. Y. . . he's the man you want to see at Poughkeepsie. We saw Sembly. We're not skeptical anymore. And there are others. Let us say right here. Annapolis is overrun with GOOD horseshoe pitchers and they keep in practice. Why tell us that some of the fellows broke ice and swept snow off the street to play the game. Take a look at these names: J. Brown, P. Hall, Bob (Elks Home) Pinkney, John Sembly, Sid Jordan, Ernest Gantt, and many others, too numerous to mention here, and you'll understand why Annapolitans will wager their last cent on these horseshoe artists. Ernest Gantt, president of the Peerless Athletic Club, the assistance of Mr. Sembly, is organizing a district, including the city proper, of the surrounding territory, and the two promising real competition when their entry stacks up against the champions from other Maryland cities and towns. While we have yet to reach the western shore, and the far western region, results in the Eastern Sho' region and in some parts of the Western Sho' region are gratifying. Dorchester, Caroline, Wicomico, Queen Anne, Worcester, Talbot, Anne Arundel, Harvard, Howard, Carroll and Baltimore counties, have begun work in earnest, and other counties are expected to fall in line daily. The districts are starting their eliminations just as fast as they can in order to be able to have their champions easily. Baltimore by the last week in August. The army of horseshoe pitchers is mobilizing fast and when these artists lay slege to Baltimore 'twill be just too bad. "YOU FORGOT SOMETHING," writes Local Tennis Fan, "when you were throwing the spotlight on local tennis in the Passing Review last week. Maybe it was an oversight, or maybe you didn't "What I want to call to your attention is that Benny Hill, who won two straight sets from Ralph Reckling should have been named the local junior champion, that is, if rules are to be followed. Junior contestants are to play the best two out of three sets. Whether Hill knew this or not I do not know, but after winning the first two sets, he played three more, losing them all and also the championship. "I am not a partisan for either of the two players, but thought I would call this to your attention and that of the public, so that in the future it may not happen again." Having been out of the city, we have not, at this writing, been able to see the tournament officials to ask them about the matter. Whether Hill had been informed of the proper number of sets to be played, we do not know. Someone, officially connected with the tournament, should have informed him. We hope someone did. Juniors cannot or should not be expected to know all the ins and out that the guards do. This matter should be corrected in time for the next tournament, and may we suggest here that as far as possible, persons having no particular interest in individual contestants be used as officials?

AUGUST 29 IS DATE OF 12-ROUND FIGHT Cuban Sensation Signed for Biggest Battle of His Sensational Career. ODDS ON SINGER Both Fighters Compromise on 128 3-4 Pounds for Bout. NEW YORK. — Marking a "natural" for the local outdoor boxing season, Kid Chocolate, the Cuban flash, signed here this week to meet Al Singer, white, Bronx junior lightweight in a 12-round bout at the Polo Grounds, here, August 29. It has been estimated that the fight will gross around $200,000. Singer defeated Andre Routis in New York some time ago, toppling the featherweight in a crushing defeat in two rounds. The Chocolate-Singer match has been long awaived. The fight fans are very excited. The white factory is very likely to send the white boy into the ring a favorite. Had Meteoric Rise The rise of the Keed to his present position in the fistic firmament, reads almost like fiction. He drifted into New York a little more than a year ago with his manager, bricks and in need of immediate action.

Within the year Chocolate has defeated Bushey Graham, Fidel LaBarba, and Vidal Gregorio, and promoters have been pleased to obtain his services for $15,000 per night. The fight, however, afforded a much dickier, the weight calling for 128 3-4 pounds at two o'clock on the afternoon of the fight. Compromise on Weight Singer wanted it at 129 and Chocolate wanted 128, and the compromise resulted. Singer will have a training camp at Hoosick Falls, while Chocolate will train at Orangeburgh, N. Y.

"The women of the country must organize to protect the home and environmental influences around children," Mrs Sallie Stewart, president of the National Association of Colored Women, told Baltimore women at a WGA meeting Tuesday. The meeting, which was presided over by Mrs. Minnie L. Gaines, president of the Maryland Association of Colored Women, was also attended by leading women and men of the city.

This is the foundation and the activity that every consideration of growups should be sacrificed in the interest of the child and home. Mrs. Stewart declared that the practice of having expensive automobiles and spending live give up while the entire family lived in crowded circumstances, sometimes a two or three room apartment or home, was all wrong. "Sitting on front door steps stringing beans, combing your hair sliding down the stairs, or the things which give our neighbors bad impressions."

Member of advisory committee. Member of selected advisory community. Member of selected association from time to time in such manner as the board shall prescribe. . . ." Must Qualify Mr. DePriest also said the law provides: "As used in this Act, the term 'cooperative association' means any association, qualified by Act.

Urging the re-organization of Negro farmers.

BLAME AGENTS Eutaw Street Agency Gave Untrue Conditions, They Say. Conditions, which they said were the worst they have ever experienced in their lives, were told by men who straggled back to the city after a 300-mile walk from a road construction project near Nelson, Pennsylvania, this week. One of the men, Wallace McDaniels, who came originally from Kinston, N. C., but who has been in Baltimore, for some time, declared that after being fed bread and white potatoes twice daily with a lunch of three apple sauce sandwiches and sleeping in a horse stable where they had to move about to keep the rain from falling through the ceiling on them, he and others decided to walk back. MONEY HELD. "I applied to the Reliable Employment Agency at 413 N. Entaw street, he said, "on Saturday, July 20 and they told me they could send me to a good job in Pennsylvania. They stated that the pay would be from 45 cents to 60 cents per hour and that we would find facilities for maintenance arranged on the job. tenance. "I accepted the job and joined a crew which was carried up on a truck. We left in the early morning and reached the job that night after a continuous ride, without food. At night we were told that our dinner would cost a dollar. It consisted of white potatoes and bread. There was no meat or other foods. vegetables. "This dinner as well as our meals and the trip was charged to our account. FIVE WEEK'S PAY. "With the $11 charged for the trip on the truck and the meal, together with $8 for the first week's board bill, we did not expect much coming, but imagine our surprise when we were told that our pay had been 25 cents per hour and that it would be five weeks before we could draw any pay." McDaniels declared. "The work is a highway construction job and is being done by a contracting firm. People in the community near the place told us that the company had such a reputation that it could not get help in that section, and hence was recruiting labor from the South." EMPLOYMENT AGENTS. A number of men straggling back declared that it was a custom of the agents to lure men there under any circumstances as they received $2 per man which was paid out of the first week's work and that the constant shifting of men meant more money to them. Edward Gray. 1810 Etting street told the AFRO-AMERICAN that he refused to go with a crew this week when he heard from McDaniel's own mouth what kind of a job it is.

Decoy Letter Traps Annapolis Man Robert L. Perry Charged with Cashing Employer's Orders. A decoy letter "planted" in the mail by post office inspectors was the undoing of Robert L. Perry, Annapolis man, who was held this week by Federal authorities. Following complaints that orders were being missed, inspectors sent the letter which was found to have been taken by Perry.

In the background are what depths Laurel cemetery, once the pride of Baltimore, has descended. a refrigerator, an outdoor toilet, and a fireplace. This photograph shows to what depths Laurel cemetery, once the pride of Baltimore, has desecrated. In the background can be seen the monuments marking the graves of Bishop Daniel A. Payne, Bishop James A. Handy, and many of the city's leading lawyers, physicians and business men of a quarter a century so high are weeds and grass in the cemetery that in many places, monuments six feet tall are entirely covered. Often when there is a funeral in Laurel, grass and weeds must be burned in the vicinity in order to clear a space for the mourners around the grave. Last week workmen began placing a stone for the late Dr. George W. Kennard, whose grave was formerly unmarked. In other sections individual lot owners have been at work cutting undergrowth from the graves of loved ones. According to the caretaker, only 30 of 1500 lot owners pay the $1 a year necessary for perpetual care. The Greater Furniture Stores of TOVE & LIBAUER 1601 E. Baltimore St. Cor.
