In Philadelphia, New York or Washington, such an extraordinary combination of crimes would immediately arouse the police force--COLORED as well as WHITE--to do their duty. Hunting criminals in those places is a cooperative enterprise in which both races get 100 per cent assistance from their respective groups. Hunting criminals in Baltimore is an enterprise in which the white police do the hunting and the entire Negro community is subjected to scrutiny, suspicion, and probing. Two races learning to cooperate in education, industry and civic improvement, immediately find themselves at daggers' points as soon as a crime is committed. This is bound to happen as long as the Negro Baltimorean can be found at but one end of the policeman's espantoon. Colored cops are needed, if for no other reason, to show the white citizens that Negroes can furnish defenders as well as breakers of the law. With only white men in police uniform, the community unconsciously gets the type picture of the black man as a culprit and criminal and the white man as the symbol of law and order. Baltimore Negroes resent this and properly so. They deplore the acts of criminals. They desire the uniform of the state to be able to do their share in ferreting out lawbreakers and bringing them to justice. They resent the suspicion of the city and the constant references of the newspapers to "THE NEGRO" whenever a dastardly crime is committed. Louis Allen, black laborer, saved eight white women from death by fire and his heroism did not move the city sufficiently to get him a job in the city fire department. But four black morons in attacks upon white women are permitted to arouse the entire city to indignation, hatred and threats of reprisal. As long as such things can happen, Maryland's civilization rates but little above Mississippi's. The picture of a black policeman marching one of these murderers or rapists into the station house would give white Baltimore a sense of security and confidence, and colored Baltimore a degree of pride and dignity that would always challenge the best in both races to interracial peace and good will.

It was these, preachers who pioneered and opened the way to the position of grace. The Negro race is: the only race in the world These are the facts: New Indictment Against White Officer and Colored Bride HAMPTON, Va. — Old indictment were quashed and new ones drawn against Emile Umlauf, white, former chief of police of Phoebus, Va., and former of the former Miss Annie Whitehead.

They want an automobile and a cigarette and a gin bottle. They 'lose all their sense of reality' and attending dances wearing scarce-ly more than a girdle. Girls who smoke cigarettes soon go to gin: girls who drink gin soon so to immorally, girls who are immorally soon go to hell." 20 PAGES RORI KU KLUX PARADE FOR ALPHAS IN ATLANTA Delegates Wonder Whether It Was a Welcome or a Threat.

Early Monday morning, Howard University had received no official word of the Hubert gift. Trustees announced that the beneficiaries would be asked to raise an amount equal to the Hubert bequests. Whether such a proposal will be tendered Howard University is not known. It is expected, however, that the funds will be made available outright, toward the medical school building program of the university. The gifts totalling $700,000 come from the $8,000,000 estate of Conrad Hubert, once a poor Russian immigrant and then successively a cigar storekeeper, restaurant, boarding house keeper, farm er, milkman, watchmaker, and finally maker of the pocket flashlight and millionaire head of the Eveready Company. The will of Mr. Hubert who died in February 1928, in France, specified that three prominent citizens (a Protestant, Catholic and a Jew) should be selected as his executors, and ex-President Coolidge, ex-Gov. and Alfred H. Smith, and Julius Reevald were selected. Some 1,600 agencies and institutions applied for the Hubert millions, which under the suspices of the three states, without regard to race or religion. The hand of Julius Rosenwald, himself, a donor of millions for Negro education and are here given the Provident Hospital, Chicago, and Howard University to each of which institutions he has already given an equally large sum. The hand of the benefactor is to the Clark County School for the Deaf, at Northampton, Mass., in which Mrs. Coolidge once taught, and to the Smith College School of Social Work, Northampton, Mass. in which the colleges are the Coolidge home town. Ex-Governor Smith's interests are shown in the gift of $500,000 to the Beechman Street Hospital, serving the poor of the city, of which Mr. Stroh's director. Of the millions distributed $1,000,000 will go to hospitals and welfare institutions in New York, $1,000,000 to the Bov Scouts, $1,000,000 to the African-colored people, $850,000 to colleges, and $875,000 to Jewish institutions.

WASHINGTON, D.C., (CNS.) — Claims that Negroes themselves must admit that they are the people of the "lowest karat in the whole world" and that that karat is not being used for being despised by Americans," were made by Jose A. De Jesus, writing in "Altiapta," a newspaper of Manila, recently. Although he signs himself as secretary to Resident Benjamin Franklin, he interview him at the office of the commissioner of the Philippine Islands in the house of office building, revealed that he was not regularly employed there. According to those in charge of the office, it does help them out once in a while." Here Few Months A report upon De Jesus revealed that the young man arrived at his conclusions after only a few months stay in his school. He then representative Filipinos present his attitude and denounce the publication of his story. The report reads: "This young man has only been in the United States a few months. During that period has resided in Washington, D. C., where Filipinos for obvious reasons are accorded the same treatment as white. He is not among the great, prominent, or well-known Filipinos, and Filipinos will be the ones to put him in his place. He will voice the sentiment of one per cent of his people, and I am sure his employer knows nothing of the article of which he is the author, and which was published in one of the less important Filipinos without the knowledge of the owner." Resident Commissioner Osias could not be reached for an interview. A translation into broken English of a letter from the States of America, as observed by Myself, in part is as follows: "The United States of America is the riches and most powerful nation. We will today. Almost all the other countries of the five continents owe America. "That is why nobody should worry about the race, but rather other national, such as people of colored races, lower in standard, weaker and less fortunate than they are. Negroes have nothing to resent for being despised by the Chinese and the Japanese with hate. They also look with despise the Jews and other Europeans and Asiatics who have become the overwhelming predominance of racial prejudice in America. "We, the Filipinos, are generally considered inferior to Americans, especially Filipinos, have not met the Filipinos, like the prejudice Nevertheless, our situa- tion is far better than that of other barbershops "In Washington, D.C., there are barbershops owned by the white people and barbershops owned by black people. Sometimes a barbershop manged by a white person admits colored barbers. The majority howe- would not admit them. In many places you will see the notice "WHITE BARERS." Most barbers, strange to learn, are Italians and Frenchmen. Sometimes these Europeans barbers are. When I notice that my face provokes the attention of a barber, I acquaint him with my nationality. Marked Indifference "In society and in all walks of life, the Negroes are looked upon with marked indifference here, and the people in the upper ranks are the most karat in the whole world. They are repugnant to us too aren't they? There are things that cause us to abhor these black people, but those people are small, smell, the manner they speak, dress and behave; their habit and all really disturbing even to us, the Filipinos. There are nevertheless, good ones, but those are not as good as in the office of Representatives and in the office of the Senate, there are some American Negroes, who hold important positions. They constitute, as I will explain, a very few reduced number. **Low Level** "Because of the low level whereon they are placed by the Americans, the Negroes have their own barbershops, stores, restaurants, and churches. Filipinos as may be expected, go to the cities, churches and stores where the white people go. This distinction of ours, is what places us to insist the same level of respect." "The defection of the Americans towards the Filipinos, rather is skrangle to the Negroes who envy us, and we can mingle with the white as if we were the same race. For this reason, we the Filibites avoid the association with the white Americans see us associating with the Negroes they think we are black, too, and they lose their respect for us. More than this, it is rather for us to associate with the Negroes because of inconveniences I mentioned above. True as Sunshine "There are Negroes who are not so black; but even they are looked with indifference by the white. The ones that have even a drop of Negro blood. This is as true as the sunshine."

OWN CASE CITED Graft Charges are Purely "Political." PHILADELPHIA. — Congressman Oscar DePriest's (Rep., Ill.) Emancipation Day address at Mt. Olivet Tabernacle last Wednesday was a defence of Bishop A. J. Carey, Chicago civil service commissioner indicted for graft. the largest auditorium in West Philadelphia was packed to its fullest capacity. Many stood around the walls, chairs were put in the aisles, still several hundred were turn- Mr. DePriest spoke on "Political Discipline of the Negro," and for early two hours kept his audience uplaoding. Mayor Mackey remained till night, when the city adjourned. He gave a history of the Nero-political life in this country, the pressman stated that the Nero greatest possibilities are no political effort for us outside of the organization of the people," he said. If the Negro ever expects to be politically free where he can use his force for this purpose and the best advancement of his country, he must learn to organize his forces. "We must impress upon our people that they are American citizens who are enthusiastic about human citizenship while they bear responsibilities." Better Jobs Mr. DePriest made an appeal for migrants to stand together. "On every hand there are those who want to be less Americans," he said, and some weak persons in our own maze tried to this view. There are Negro haters the Negro opposes the matter and gets better jobs, and there is aim to which they will go to keep the Negro down." Bishop Carey Referring to Bishop Carey, he said: the trouble about Bishop Carey is an Negro haters do not want, to see the city civil service commission for under this commission there nearly 40,000 jobs. This is too a posing issue for the Negro occupy. Therefore they have out去 get" Carey. They used the same tactics with them. When they saw that they could press them they indicted me. Just like the election they took me to grand jury and got an indictment is not a very hard thing to in Chicago. But I did not pay attention to them. I went ahead and I was elected by good manliness. I did however Andrew from the race for Congress indemnity would not be brought to me. I paid no attention to Demanded Trial "After I was elected, I made a written demand for a trial in January according to the Illinois law. The judge made a demand for a trial again in February. They were not ready. I demand again in March. Again they were not ready. I made another demand in April. Still they did not have evidence and I fell back on our legal right. "The judge called for a trial, and the state's attorney stated that they did not have evidence enough. Consequently the matter was dismissed. The time, and the evidence did not have enough to indict me, but the point was that they were not interested in whether I was guilty or not, but the evidence in keeping me out of Congress." Cold Feet "Ben after I was elected, there were weak Negroes all over the country who got cold feet and wanted to go up and not accept the coffee. I paid for it. I paid for the people. The people of the first district of Illinois elected me and I took my meal. I was daily sworn in. Just as beat them. Bishop Carey will beat The matter is purely politic. The DePriest made a strong plea for racial solidarity. He said: 'My father and my mother were slaves. Neither of them could read or write. They were not responsible for that. They were God-fearing; they were honest; they were the system of slavery practically smothered all the higher qualities which were in them.

I have never forgotten the common people. I love the common people. I do not seek any social equality with anybody. I like the people that I like and I want to them." One thing that our race must do, we must all feel a strong kinship one with another. No man should get rich but that he feels no kinship with the common man. No man should get so high that he will try to get away from the common mass. We must ALL rise if any of us are Wants Company Mr. DePriest then gave the method used in Chicago as the suggested method for Philadelphia to increase his political power, and concluded "I want Philadelphia, New York, Cleveland, St. Louis and other larger centers get the help that I can have company."

The group was booked on a charge of disorderly conduct. Beverhoud, Williams, and twenty-eight others were seized and held several hours. Three white persons were held on the charges, the several race men being freed. Joseph Rinkswyk, white of this city, was so severely beaten by police the workers were taken, but that he was taken to Freedmen's Hospital where he remained unconscious until Sunday morning.

The father was promptly arrested and without no charges were placed against him. The kidnapping of the Green baby had the community upset for several days, until a cousin of the mother dreamed that the child was in the dream, backed up by the statement of mediums that the baby was alive and well and less than six miles away, resulted in a trip to the Ewing home, where the baby was found. She was released Wednesday following her confession that the child brought to her home by Mr. Green, who had promised to pay her for its care. She claimed that he brought the baby wrapped up as a bundle of clothes to be washed. Couldn't Steal-Child Although both Green and his wife vehemently denied the statement that it is reported that Mrs. Ewing will not again be involved as the district attorney is convinced tat it would have been impossible for anyone to steal the child.

She had learned to regard these "spells" as a result of his being shell shocked in the war. How I am not doing right," he would burst out some times, she said, "but I can't help it when these 'spells' come on me." When normal, she said, he was intelligent and Sought Aid Soge these "spells" became more frequent and it was at this time, about five years ago, she said, that she appealed to a Mr. Sargent and sent her to a hospital, where she treated in a hospital.

Four years ago she had him placed in the House of Correction on the grounds that because she feared that under one of these "spells" he would seriously harm her. He was sentenced to six months, but served only 40 days. Payne the second ago Price was active in church work and was for some time an usher in Payne Memorial A.M.E.

PREDICT DEFEAT OF "COTTON TOM" HEFLIN Mississippi Canned Vardaman; Blease's Turn Coming. WASHINGTON. D.C. — (CNS) — In the Mirrors of Washington, a weekly paper, Clinton W. Gilbert, the columnist, gives some excellent reasons why Hefflin—"Cotton Tom." is now serving his lion's term in the Senate. Gilbert says in part: "I suppose what counts most against Helfin is not his apostasy of a year ago. It is the fact that in the mind of the respectable, conservative element, the more he appears in his presence in the Senate brings their state into disrepair. They are of afraid of the consequences of having people throughout the country themself. Then he turns on the state, turns on Wyn, that's the state that sends Helfin to the Senate. States always grow ashamed of fantastic, shouting, eccentric senators. "Mississippi got tired of Van Damme's turn on coroner later on Cole Blease. And Alabama would have repudiated Helfin long ago if its sensible element could have agreed upon a candidate against him. The senator who is his job is the one state as a whole is proud of. And a large part of Alabama has for years been shamed by the names of Helfin. "If Cotton Tom' had not had an exaggerated idea of his con importance he might perhaps have gone to send a senator all the rest of his days." 40 Artists Exhibit Work in New York Over 300 Paintings Entered in Third Annual Harmon Competition at International House NEW YORK. — The work of more than forty artists, competing for the third annual group of prizes of the Harmon Foundation, is on display at the museum.

R. R. MOTON Trial of Bishops. Fiery Ira Bryant, editor of the A.M.E. Sunday school literature makes a comparison of methods of trying bishops by comparing quotation sheets from the A.M.E. Church, South, both white, with the Colored M.E. Church, A.M.E. Zion Church and the A.M.E. Church disciplines. Mr Bryant is interested chiefly in the case of Bishop A. J. Carey, Chicago civil service commissioner and bishop of the A.M.E. church, who is being tried for graft fraud. He quote from the A.M.E. discipline, chapter four, on trial of bishops as follows: "In the interval of the General Council of any crime expressly forbidden in the word of God, the presiding elder of the district in which the said crime it allagged to have committed the sin is accused, the bishop next in seniority, who shall appoint a committee of five composed of one bishop and four elders over which he shall preside, but shall have neither voice nor vote in making up the ver "He shall call the committee to meet at a given place and time and shall summon the accused in writing, placing in his hand the bill of complaint or charge at least one week before the date set for trial. the date set for the Committee's Decision "If at this examination the bishop be found guilty of crime sufficient to exclude a person from the kingdom of grace and glory or to have acted so improperly to punish the committee shall have to suspend him from all official functions until the ensuing annual conference. "The annual conference, if it deterred it is favor, shall have power to reverse the decision of the committee and to restore him to his former function. If it shall find him guilty it shall continue his suspension and the next ensuing general conference. Eniscopal Committee "The general conference at each session shall choose a committee before which each Bishop in person shall pass an examination. The committee concern his traveling among the people in his district, his administration and decisions. "If he should be condemned by the council, he shall be condemned to appeal to the General Conference in whole, and may be permitted to object to any one of said committee. Final Determination "The General Conference shall have the power to reverse or approve the decision of the committee, and if approved its decision shall be final. "If on examination, it be found that a Bishop's character is not fair, or that he has neglected his duty, or that he has committed any of any crime sufficient to exclude a person from the kingdom of grace and glory, or has acted so improperly as to justify suspension, or expulsion, the General Conference shall suspend him from his episcopal functions." There is not very much likelihood of one of Bishop Carey's presiding bishops being with the senior bishop, Bishop H. B. Parks, although that is what the discipline of the church requires, and the charges in Chicago. Books Not to be Read The New York Nation calls attention to a revised edition of the Index of Prohibited Books just issued from the new state printing house of the Vatican at Rome. This edition is accompanied by a statement from the port of Cardinal John Paul II, who reiterates the ages-old claim that the church has the right to prescribe in detail what may and may not be read by Catholics. Books which Catholics are not to read include Gibbon's "Rome," Darwin's "Origin of Speeds," Kant's "Joseph Addison, Masterlinck and the English Book of Common Praver." Another Heaven. "There Is Another Heaven," is the title of a new book by Robert Nathan, published by Bobbs-Merrill Company. It tells all about the heaven of the four cardinal points, pointing some people found it: a Jew who had given up his forbearings and his sympathies to become a Christian and expected to find in heaven, Jesus (whom he had chosen because he felt that love really emanated from him). He was a great many very righteous and proper humans who had been "saved": an old man, a professor, who found that his mother (who had died when he was young) was more of a skittish daughter than a mother to him, and that he was not a cent for the fishing); and the son of a famous evangelist who had hoped Coughs from colds may lead to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Cremulison, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Cremulison is two-fold action; it soothes and heals the inflamed membranes and inhibits germ growth.

"Who" declares the letter from a friend to column this week; "Singing bands are not a help." "In some of our churches I found many illiterates, the letter says, the chief form of worship, is a singing band or a group of people who in singing almost go to worship singing in the church analysis is a jumbo of Africanism and heathenism.

Don't blame the other fellow. There is no excuse for ignorance, and there is no excuse for begging." Dr. Isaacs Welcomed Dr. J. B.

Dr. Swain Speaks "Having gone as far as we have, the Negro cannot afford to retreat or to give up the struggle. The Negro needs to keep on struggling.

Pone Gets Many Gifts Press dispatches from Rome indicate that the Pope probably gets more Christmas gifts than he does. Because Christmas this year fell on the Pope's golden anniversary of his first mass, his gifts were especially numerous. The book service from the German government. 1,000 books from the Hungarian government; 220 books printed just after the invention and numerous manuscripts. During the year, the Pope has been the head of the Roman Catholic automobiles and large, guns, of money. Rev Stepteau Home.

Church, this week, returned to his pulpit that week, which was spontaneous and widespread greeted him at the morning and afternoon services. Among other things, he said that the Lord has blessed the work of Bishop Brooks in Texas, that he loved the love of the church the diocese, the confidence of pastors, theiding elders and people and has put everybody to work in campaigns for missions and education. Bishop Brooks uses an automobile to go to and from his conferences. Dr. Steptheau said, even though in some cases the seat of the comment may be 250 miles from San Antonio. In every case, each Sunday afternoon as soon as the conference is concluded and appointments are read, the bishop enters his car and is driven home. Dr. Steptheau reported that the trip he made was worth $10,000. Tennessee, Tennessee, where weather was so cold that he stopped to have a heater installed in his automobile. No Colored Jesuit Priests. To the Edith of the Churchman. In the AFOB of the AFROC in the country an excerpt from an article by the Rev. William O. Markeo, S.J., in The Chronicle, of official organ of the Federated Colored Catholics of the United States. excerpt gave some of the writer's question of colored Catholic priests. It was not so much what he said about the part God has in the matter of vocations to the church as in the matter of the church as expressed by Pope Benedict XV, or the fact that some, while sympathetic with our race, are opposed to colored race. This note is an address this note to the AFOB. I fully realize the import of his words and agree with him, at the same time apprehending the importance of taking care to our people. Yet, when we stop to think that he is a member of a community which has done so much for the welfare of his people, we must be numbered among its subjects priests of all nations and races, including the Negro, we wonder why it is that no memorial to his memory exists on the sons of S. Ignatius in this country. Surely there must be some with aspirations for the missionary life so gloriously typified by his life and work throughout the country. Personally, I should be more deeply impressed by Father Marke's words: "we were the most expressive, strongest by concrete examples in his own community. The hypercritical might be inclined to think that many who, like the good Father, often express themselves as well expressive. Negro and as most eager for the conversion of the race, might have far greater influence with our people, if among their confessions, few of that same race towards which their sympathies are directed. God hasten the day when the Master will address to the co-council youth sons of St. Isaakus, the words addressed to all Catholic priests: "You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you!" Dr. Colbert Preaches. The Rev. John T. Colbert prescheduled at Grace Presbyterian Church. Sunday marked the 25th year of his pastorate. The ministry is not keeping step with other professions, he said; One thousand ministers are needed and they are only in all of the schools preparing ministers throughout the country. Of the ministers now in service, only 3,000 are high school graduate. Of 40,000 preaching only 3,000 are college graduates. Many criticisms of the ministry are true, he declared, for what the race is a preacher prepared to preach. IN D. C.

OKEYED SLAVERY Letter from President Herbert Hoover Read. (By Carroll News Service) BOSTON. Mass. — The Emancipation Proclamation was a war measure and issued for psychological effects, formalizing the United States, declared Julian D. Bailey, chairman of the colored division of the national Democratic party, for election, at a celebration of the fifth anniversary of the Emancipation held at the Columbus Avenue A M E Zion Church on Wednesday evening. Baldwin — The Republican party of 1860 went on record as approving slavery, and the Negro cut a big figure in freeing the slaves. After war was declared over 100,000 Negroes were fighting with the Union army. He further said that President Lincoln favored slaves with owners for the plan was later abandoned and the one which says "to the victor belongs the spell," was adopted. The truth of the Emancipation should be be said. The celebration was held under the auspices of the National Ministers' Educational Alliance of America, that Rev.

Taxi Drivers Get Chance in New York Company Using Colored Help to Increase Fleet to 2,000 Men NEW YORK—The new Paramount Cab Company, which recently employed some colored drivers from 800 to 2,000, to compete with the Yellow Cab operators, who employ no colored drivers. Two companies will center around the possession of exclusive rights at ferry, train, and steamboat terminals for the Yellow Cab company. It is thought that when the Paramount company gets concessions at these stands, colored drivers will be the big hotels where they are now barred on account of the Yellow Cab concessions.

New York New York To make a complete story of the past holiday for you, I will have to start with Sunday afternoon, the 29th, of the old year. And so to the Dark Tower. A tea for the Sigmas, given by the Ladies' Auxiliary, with the tower all decorated (and never at any affair, formal or informal or what not, are the decorations the same). All the guests were tagged in the Christmas cards, which reminds me that this was the first time I ever remembered so many names at once. What they served us—such delicious French sandwiches, thousands of them, and they were so very different that we just wanted more and more; dainties made like cakes, rolled sandwiches like popette noisemakers, plain sandwiches, fancy, fanoler, fanciest. I wish I knew just what they were; tea and coffee; nuts, stuffed dates, candies; and they just kept missing things around. Speechers were made by Dr. Charles A. Miles, Ph.D., and by the national officers, mite, and by the national officers, R. W. Mitchell, of Chicago; Professors Jesse Leiss, William C. Miles, of Washington; Montgomery Gregory of Atlantic City, and Alonah Holley of Tukengarra; William C. Miles of Gauntlet, William Clampson, The Collegiate L. E. K. Cole, director, and Corneille M. C. Cole, played by Bugo Bornan and Andras Lisdany. Beardens at Home The Howard Beardens, with Francis Lomack, were at the Sunday night sale to all Nora students that filled their library can get to the West 131st street. But what would you ex-ample that filled the library so popular a lady. But was it lovely? It was prepared for the number. The buffet no signs of dimming. And the music was divine and the "burp-up" was marvelous. Minda Cato and Carol Taitt sang and, sang a marvelous Spanish pianist, a marvelous French pianist, more. Aside from all the home folk songs, there was a discovery Nora Lee Reynold, Rhonda Clifford and Bessie Nurse, of Washington; a discovery Bordownan and Nora Holt, of Chicago. Sigma Closed Banquet Monday was the great day of the Sigmoid closed banquet. Many a tear was shed by many a fair damset because she did not know a Sigma man. Of course, I would have to go to Press that night; so you are involved be益的 The Bamboo Inn, on this occasion, closed to Sigma men and their company, the former, including the delegates, national officers and visiting brothers in addition to the members of the three local chapters. Upwards of 300 guests were accommodated. There were the national officers and prominent members of the first and second-in-president-company their W. Mitchell, of Chicago; Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Wright, of Newark; Professor Jess W. Lewis, ex-secretary-treasurer; Mr. and Mrs. Pope Billups and a host of others, which spaces does not permit to be included. Pitting distinction was bestowed upon the victorious basketball team which sat intact at one of the long tables. A. D.

Bertle, Ether Suker, Ether Gathar burt B. Pierre, Gertrude Schenagh, William and Gertrude Schenagh, New Year's Eve Of course, Tuesday, New Year's Eve, was marvelous. We were marveled—warm and clear—the kind of night on which you lie to 'urn out. I had planned to divide the night between me and Gordon party at New Gardens and Clody Boyd studio' in the village, but Lily Tucker permeated me with the sense of being seen through a avenue on New Year's Eve; so in Harlan I stayed. Mobs was a sight long to be remembered. Mobs of people, towing horns dragging cars, costing coffees for the evening, were accompanied by screaming, yellining, foating, staggering Strangers rushed at each other, shook hands with each other, and screamed at street and street down the other, tacts and private cars keeping step with the pedestrians, chatter, speeches, speakers and private parties. Clubs In the clubs, it took "butter and eggers" to make the grade. The Cotton Club, Connie's Inn and the new Plantation had a cover of $25 per couple, when it gets that high, it should be spelled 'couvert', while Small's Paradise, the Lenox Avenue Club and the Saratoga shook you down for $10. We finally decided on the Lenox Club because it has a special number in the revue dedicated to the Tattler staff. Whoopee was wild and furious and well worth the price of admission. The next stop was Domenick's, and that gentleman's place was so crowded with everyone you knew, that we ambled from booth to booth and made one gay party of it with Emanuel Kline as master of ceremonies. Parties By four, we began to remember that Rhoda Smith and Mamle Briggs and Margaret Telfair were having New Year's Eve parties. Mamie and Margaret, who entertain anually, and who had on of the largest affair of the season, held forth at the spacious home of the Henry Bells on St. Nicholas Rhoda's Annual Rhoda gave her party as usual, at her apartment on the second floor, and less or more to her house assist. She served the proper Hip Hop and John and Hogwash of delicious food and a delightful sound six in the morning. We danced more some, aided some more, and all disliked to some softs and low music and nicely disciputed home. THE ORIGINAL PLAN had included a gathering of the clan in 138rd street at the club in the street and the clubs in the street had been presen- ted with greetings from the President of the United States. And that was that. THE YOUNG NEST BET: Helen A.

Egg-Nog Party. The night ended at Thalma Yanez's fifth annual New Year's egg party at La Jolla. The host, who reigns the "eat, drink and be extra merry" spirit for "tomorrow we all go back to school," and so end our whoring, One Thalma said, "I'll be tired to go out that evening until he heard that Thalma's affair was an egg-one-can be one of the first to get baked." Many of us were so tired as a result of the night before, but with a Nappy's music, dim lights, swell dance floor and fellows who know to keep their feet on the floor instead of on one's party slippers, what more could anyone ask for? As for those present, it would be lots easier for me to name those who weren't there; but nevertheless Fannie Vick, just from Baltimore and Washington, was there, as well as Eddie Hutchins and Tom Patrick, medical students at Harvard, Sue Pollard and Billy Smith; Elsie Hunter and her shadow, James Baker from Brooklyn; Bill Pherson and the Emiile Brown of Quakertown; Ruth Allen, a Howard University co-ed seemed mighty interested in George Bossel, also of Brooklyn; Sadella Ten Eyck and her b.f.; Mitt Weston—isn't love grand; Ethel Harris, Herb Goodwin, Herbie Harris, Bobbie Anthony, Bill Payne, Rolfe Danles, Ted Vogelsang, Shark Wright, Rae Oliey, Anna Small, Ann Jones, Bill Weaver, Hugh Brown, Katherine and Laureetta Noisette, who arrived later than that, even: Jean Simon, Maude Danison, Elvets Siegle, E.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, January 11, 1930 Peabody Pleads for Bequests for the Education of Negroes "For you" Thedford's BLACK·DRAUGHT for CONSTIPATION, INDIGESTION, BILIOUSNESS NEW YORK CITY. (CNS) -George Foster Peabody, white, senior trustee of Hampton Institute in a letter to the New York Tribune recently made a plea to testators to consider Negro education in their wills. Mr. Peabody, a native of Columbus, Georgia, served as member of the banking firm of Spencer Trank and Company of New York. Since he has devoted his time to philanthropy Mr. Peabody has served as a member of the trustee board of Tuskegee Institute and has devoted his time to Valley High and Industrial School at Fort Valley, Georgia. His letter in part follows: "May I call to the attention of men and women and their law-owing oversight which I cannot but believe is in very many cases due to a lack of knowledge of actual conduct, respecting my morality and worthy needy subjects for wise consideration in the matter of bequests? READING WILLS "I have noticed for a long time now, in reading the reports of our education and the formation of estates, that very few of the descendants leave anything for Negro education, and alas! that many of them small sums that do not evidently that there has been no realization on the part of those making the importance to the United States as a part of the education of the 10 per cent of our population sharply assigned by custom and law to the BOOKER T. RECALLED. "We may recall Booker Washington's notable saying that the Negro came to the United States with most urgent invitation that they were not free to decline. "We must therefore their condition of slavery of both body and mind practically and their being set free in the midst of a dominant white race was but slightly better - off materially than they, apart from ownership usually 'land poor' and certainly 'land poor' severely burdened upon mind, conscience and heart. "It is the fact that today the "it is the majority of the white population" poor in worldly goods and, therefore, poor in educational opportunities helped to be poor in spirit." This possession of education is dominated by its vigorous child prejudice, is, of course, equally dangerous to those having it. Furthermore, it restricts the educational opportunities for both the dominant and the unprivileged population. 30 PER CENT. "As 30 per cent in round Intermarriage With Indians Makes Them Antedate Pilgrims NEW YORK—Names of black men of New England who fought and died in the colonies, but also for the independence of the colonies and whose valor was shown in the war, privileges, will be presented to the public by the Society of the Descendants of early New England Negroes with Indians. The society has already announced seventen colored women as direct descendants of soldiers of the Revolution, and has announced the intermarriage of early Negroes with Indians, it is establishing the claim descent of its members, antidescs of that of the descendants of the Pilgrims. Again Heads Sigmas NEW YORK—With a series of public meetings, interpreting the relation of the organization to higher education, the state, and five-day session, the Phi Beta Sigma fraternity closed with the re-election of Arthur W. Mitchell as its national president, Monday. The election were: G. L. Roberts of Pittsburgh, M. Vic, vice-president, Northern district; G. V. Group Atlanta, Ga., vice-president, South Carolina, Ga., vice-president, York, national vice-president; A. A. Austin, national secretary-treasurer; and A. W. Clack, Tuskegee, Ala., editor-in-chief of the Crescent, the Stigma periodical. United States resides in those Southern states, and of that 30 per cent nearly one-third are of the African-American race. This of Negro citizenship to the future of the country is one of immeasurable importance, because through a white primary all the political activities of those sections and largely eliminate all institutions of consideration by the voters. Only in the instance of sumptuary legislation is a manifest aid deferred to issues from election of election. "I think readers of this letter will realize that money wisely left for aid to the education of Negro children in impolite but also greatly serves the future welfare of our country." There are, of course, many efforts for educational assistance that are not wise because of the lack of resources. Therefore, aid that reaches unto the strengthening of noble and ever more widely spreading education. Southern people in the education of the Negro is of largest benefit because they risk the risk of waste most surely." NEW YORK SOCIETY Memorial Gift to N.A.A.C.P.

Negro Gaining Against Color Bar, says N.A.A.C.P, Report Blackshear, Vestris and Myers Cases Cited. Segregation Defeated in West Virginia. Virginia Primary Case Won. NEGRO SHOULD HAVE 50 MEMBERS OF CONGRESS. SAYS PICKENS NEW YORK—Enlightened public opinion in the United States and throughout the world is increasingly supporting the Negro in his efforts to achieve opportunity and to surmount the color barrier, according to a summary of the annual report of the N.A.A.C.P. made public Friday. "In five separate instances during the last decade," he said, "public opinion North and South rallied to the Negro's plea for fair play. Two of these instances concurred in high churchmen, but editors, clergymen and numerous private citizens, repudiated color bar utterances of a Protestant Episcopal and a Catholic Vestris "Another instance occurred early in the year, when it was sought to be the head of the members of the ill-fated steamship, 'Vestris.' Here again the United States attorney at law, John H. Husts of New York, joined in doing honor to the colored host of the disaster and the men of any imputation of neglect. Sport "Twice on the sport field, public sentiment has rallied to the appeal of the team," said the coach, who was sharp criticism of the proposal to withdraw New York University's colored star quarterback George. And criticism has been pointed at the United States Lawn Tennis Association, which hosts their national tournaments. In the Courts "In the field of law, the Negro's appeals to the courts have been usually fruitful. In Virginia Negroes the race car in the race primary elections. In the same state, a residential segregation ordinance was held unconstitution. In Huntington, West Virginia, residential segregation by covenant among white property owners was not violation. Two white men have gone to NEW YORK. — Speaking over the radio from Station WEVD on New Year's Day, William N. AAGE, the senator's conviction that the Negro ought to have at least fifty seats in the Senate and House of Representatives combined, according to the proportion of his numbers," said Mr. Pickens, "the Negro should have today at least fifty members in the House and Senate combine to represent a base on proportionate wealth, he would still be entitled prison in Louisiana for the murder of two colored women. "In Tennessee, a young colored man, Turley Wright, convicted on perjured testimony of white women, has been released. Ben Bess, colored farmer, was released by the state supreme court after serving fourteen years of a thirty-year sentence, conviction having been原oginally by perjured testimony. "These few instances from among the many results of the year's work have been ready to sustain the Negro's just contentions, but that public opinion as well, is swinging to the point where it will insist upon fair play done irrespective of race and color.

He is at least based on what he puts in much more than a tenth of the working hours." In his address Mr. Pickens summarized the gains made by Negroes in the United States during the year, and pointed out the handlebars they were still struggling against, having the segregation movement, lynching, and economic discrimination. *Published every Saturday in the A1 O-american Build- er Magazine, Baltimore, Md., by THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMPANY.* JOHN H.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (1908) As to the matter of kissing, the St. Luke Herald says the following: "The most important business, especially with children around. Do not kiss unless you are absolutely certain you are not trespassing." A woman, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, has a double value for she, being a woman, ought to be an authority. As to the matter of kissing, the St. Luke Herald the following: This is good advice and, coming from a woman, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, it has a double value, for she, being a woman, ought to be an authority. Remove Bishop Carey Since Bishop A J. Carey of the Chicago diocese of the A.M.E. Church was not disobed after charges were made against him by Mr. Ira T. Bryant in the official organ of the denomination's Sunday school department, it is not likely that the church will become alarmed over his alleged misconduct as civil service commissioner in Chicago. The church, the church which seems unable to keep its bench of bishop free from scandal can hardly expect to clean up a public office in Chicago. Yet this does not prevent the church from suffering under a self-imposed handicap that disrechts it at the top and renders it unworthy of public confidence or support. Gully or innocent, there have been too many charges against Bishop Carey. For the good of the church, they should be removed from the episcopal office which today is the butt of public discipline and contempt. Faulkner Arrives Home Warned by Liberian government officials not to return there, advised by friends that his life would be endangered, M. T. J. R. Faulkner, who expired Liberian slavery and slave trading while in America, was given the greatest welcome in he history of the republic as he landed on the shaft at Monrovia, recently. Patriotic and sincere in his efforts to help his country, Mr. Faulkner went back home to face those opponents whom he has succeeded in halting, and the public opinion at the league of Nations. President King is wise in his own silence and nouncing his party against carrying out threats to do violence to Mr. Faulkner. If Mr. Faulkner's charges are false, he will be inscribed soon enough by the international commission already agreed upon. It will then time enough to talk punishment. Violence no longer exists, the world no longer is right, and incidentally give resident King's administration a black eye from which it could never recover. Get Your Money These columns have pointed out what handiaps have been suffered by the Baltimore Community Fund, the Y.M.C.A. and Provident Hospital because of the failure of campaign subscribers to pay their pledges. Of course, a man who fails to keep his word is doubtless unreliable and of little account in many other ways. What is needed in the conduct of public campaigns of this sort is to compile a black list of all sem. Big business catalogues the bad payer and the ubber check dispenser. When the customer calls to keep up his payments, a truck backs up the door and the radio, the piece of furniture, the stove is taken out. But little business men are those worst hurt you the dead beats. The newsboys, the corner rocers, the tailors, the shoemakers, lose thousands of dollars every year. The small business man who allows a customer to abuse his credit, is digging his own grave. Every man in business needs a program of collection. First a bill, then a statement, a potte reminder, a firm notification, an insistence on payment or explanation, and finally legal col Nothing said here refers to those whose contact to pay was made in good faith, but who or some reason may be temporarily unable to complete it. They can always make an explanation that will bring them an extension of credit. But it is the fraud the cheat, the bad payer, the wrong person, the unhappy community and go through it like a plague avenging behind an accumulation of worthless debts that throttle many a struggling business an. As an offset to this, business men everywhere must organize and talk up their difficulties as asl as their successful methods. They must recognize that money and must be collected because it is theirs, politely, they must take the dead beat to edge of town and kick him out. Whose Ox is Gored? Whose Ox is Gored? Members of Congress who have declined to an anti-lynching bill, picked up their morning papers last month and read of the burning live and mutilation of a white half-wit by an kansas mob. Two weeks ago their eyes fell upon a description of a lynching of a white man by bloodstirry circus loving Georgians. The Negro press of the land was silent and a eorgia editor roused himself to ask where was National Association for the Advancement of men, who protest by telegrams to morsers, mayors and sheriffs following every nching of Negroes. The N.A.A.C.P. has not repiled. None seemseded. It appears that the dominant white immunities ought to be able to settle their own problems, and who protested folked. Two weeks ago Dr. A. M. Schweitzer, Louis University, violently assailed presently methods of conducting medical schools. He had Jewish students who had been retested by twenty-five medical schools on account of this complaint did not come from Gentile professors at Pennsylvania, Harvard or Hopkins to a Jew, "whose ox had been gored."

The appointment of Dr. Emmett J. Scott as the commander of Port Au Prince with the rank of A.E. and M.P. Mr. Scott has the confidence of the American government; the respect of our most influential citizens. He would be recalled by the inhabitants of the Haitian Republic. MANNING C. JONES. The displacement of American Marines to be supplied by regular colored American troops, whose loyalty to this government's interests is a significant aesthetic attitude towards the Haitian masses, would be understood and appreciated. The appointment of Dr. Emmett J. Scott as the commander of Port Au Prince with the rank of A.E. and M.P. Mr. Scott has the confidence of the American government; the respect of our most influential leaders; and the influence by the inhabitants of the Haitian Republic. Charleston, W. Va. Wholesale Robbery at Lexington Street Stores. To the Editor: There is wholesale robbery of our people by the meat on Lexington Street. I was 600 bible weight West Lexington, the worst. I went there to buy some meat and after I bought it I carried it to Crook's Store and had it weighed 100 pounds. I went to the master of the market but was told they were only concerned about the market on Saturday night. I watched time robbing our people and I stood there and watched one of the meat sellers. I told him I was going to write him up and he has not liked what I said. We near the store and I saw the meat on the scale on the inside of the store. The people are standing on the outside and they cannot see the scale. I watched the man stood in front of the scale. When I asked him to let me see the scale. I saw that I was one-half pound short. He said he was one-half pound and he gave me the half pound due me. A poor colored woman was buying some meat at one store and I told her to look at the scale. A man grabbed the meat off before she could see. If one of your reporters could watch around these stores he would see a lot of slick work. I went to FLO and have been reading it for twenty years. There is wholesale robbery of our people by the meat sellers. We have 600 by the West Lexington street, is the street. I went there to buy some meat and after I bought it I carried it to Crook's Store and had it cut. I went to the master of the market but was told they were only concerned about the market because they have a good time robbing our people and I stood there and watched one of the meat sellers. I told him was going to write it. He liked it and liked me. We nearly had a fight. When he waits on any one he puts the meat on the scale on the inside of the store. The people were sitting on the outside and they could see the scale. At one of the stores the man stood in front of the scale. When I asked him to let me see the scale, he said he was going to put some meat at one store and I told her to look at the scale, but the store man grabbed the meat off before she could see. Our reporters could watch around these stores he would see a lot of stick work. I sell the AFRO and have been reading it for twenty years. JOSEPH W. JONES. 209 N. Pine-st Thanks to Subscriber Jackson. He suggests a New Year Resolution that the AFRO is Glad to Make. To the Editor: For some time I have read with interest the you on the very frank, courageous and constructive manner in which you attack the race problem in your editorial? I wrote quite recently by Mr. B. Howell Griswold in the interest of Mr. Lewis Allen, hero in the O'Connor fire, appearing in the AFRO of December 28, under the option "Qualities of our country" of disbusing the minds of prejudiced whites who possess the superiority complex, of the infertility of races. Such type of articles, producing facts, rather than heated, ramuses which I read many times with disgust, go much farther in bringing about better race relations. Educated whites themselves admit that the greatest cause of prejudice toward the Negro is lack of understanding and knowledge of the enviable part he has played in the making of the history of the world. To the Editor: For some time I have read with interest the weekly editorials in the AFRO. May I elicitate you on the very truth, courageous and constructive. May you attack the race problem in your editorials? Your answer to an article written quite recently by Mr. B. Howell Griswold in the interest of the AFRO is that the race problem is peering in the AFRO of December 28, under the option "Qualities of Our Race," is a very intelligent and unique method of disbusing the minds of the AFRO. This is a complex of the inferiority of races. Such type of articles, producing facts, rather than heated, theoretical vindications of the souls of ignorancems which I read many times with disgust, must further in bringing about better race relations. The educated whites themselves admit that the greatest cause of prejudice toward the Negro is the lack of knowledge and knowledge the enviable part he has played in the making of the history of the world. Keep up the good work. HUSTON R. J. JACKSON, Teacher of History and Civics. Teacher of History and U.S. Booker Washington Junior High School, City. Were A.M.E. and A.M.E. Zion Churches Ever Unified?... To the Editor: You say, editorially, "The two churches were once one," that is the African-Methodist Episcopal, and the African Methodist Episcopal are mistaken. The A.M.E. Church was organized in 1816. The Zion Church was organized in 1821, and the year 1822, James Varken became its first bishop. The Negro Methodists of New York sustained no particular grievance, as those of Philadelphia, New York, and New Jersey, whether to return to the white Methodists, or join with the Allenites. They endeavored to be the first to be the hands of Bishop Bobart (Episcopal), and later made an unsuccessful appeal to the white Methodist Conference. Finally, the group organized the Methodist Church, and made their own bishop, James Varken. In this statement I am quite sure you are misinformed. The Zion Church was organized in 1821, and the next year, 1822, James Varkic became its first bishop. The methodist of New York sustained no particular grievance, as those of Philadelphia, and for a long while, were in a state of indecision, whether to return to the white Methodists, with the Amish, or secure the conservation of a Negro bishop at the hands of Bishop Hobart (Episcopal), and later with the Amish, to organize a districtist Conference. Finally, the group organized their own church, and made their own bishop, James Varkic. GEORGE P. BRAGG. Editor's Note—Dr. Charles Wesley, professor of history at Howard University, in his recent article, "The Church of the AMEZ in the AFRO, December 14, 1929, as follows: "Both churches (A.M.E. and A.M.E. Zion) were known as A.M.E. Churches in the early days, and Allen, first bishop of the A.M.EZ, in 1816 sought in vain to bring about unification." Reinforcements As $ ^{1} $ Necessary.

Task Force Editor: Judging by the general indifference of Negroes toward the efforts of such an organization as the National Association for the Advancement of Women, the vast majority of our people do not appreciate the value of propaganda. Some of the intellectuals who ought to know better actually sneer at such efforts. Now while all organizations and the work they do ought to be sanely scrutinized and subject to the criticism they will present as they do of the criticism I hear concerning this propaganda in their behalf is just simply silly. The with pointing out that propaganda has not yet succeeded in ushering the group into Utopia. If we do not present the facts as we see them, the audience will not see them. Our enemies may point to the fact that the percentage of Negroes in jail is out of proportion to the population. It remains for us to point out that this is not due to any greater criminality on the part of the government, constitutes, generally speaking, the lowest economic group in the community and when brought to court, is faced with judges, district attorneys and even against him because of his color. In this instance both sides have presented facts, but see that the facts are the same when you point out the facts as the Negroes see them! To the Editor: Judging the general indifference of Negroes toward the efforts of such an organization as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, one is led to conclude that the vast majority of our people do not appreciate the "propaganda." Some of the intellectuals who ought to know better actually sneer as such efforts. Now while all organizations and the work they do ought to be sancily scrutinized and subject to criticism at all times, I must confess that most people are critical of the project and in their behalf is just simply sill ucc兼的 The bulk of it is concerned with personalities and with pointing out that propaganda hasn't yet succeeded in ushering the group into Utopia. If we do not present the facts as we see them, then our expenses are unprecedented. So, our enemies may point to the facts that the percentage of Negroes in jail is out of all proportion to the percentage of Negroes in the population. It remains for us to point out that this is not due to any greater criminality on the part of the Negro, but rather to it, fact that he constitutes the overall impact of the economic group in the community and when brought to court, is faced with judges, district attorneys and jurymen who are in the main prejudiced against him because of his color. In this in-law case, he has been accused of being in fact so what a different conclusion is reached when you point out the facts as the Negro sees them. No group, business or enterprise, in modern life can get very far without propaganda. The best way to get propaganda is organization has a propaganda or publicity bureau. Some public relations consents get as much as $100,000 a year for getting publicity to great corporations. With the starting of 12,000,000 people who welfare and progress depends to a large extent on what a group of 100,000,000 other people thinks of them, ought to spend ten times as much for propaganda of the kind released by the NAACI.

To the Editor: I have become very much interested in your work, being the AFRO, and I have some few questions I would like to have answered by First Sergeant Milton T. Dean, of the Cavary. If West Point is such a good place, why have so many young soldiers deserted the detachment? Why is it that unless an old soldier is a former soldier, he is advised to transfer or forfeit his discharge? Why does a soldier have to go under his care, to show when there is one at West Point? Why does a soe to Highland Fall to Highland Fall? I was a memb e one time and, as a soldier with exce sed soldiers with exce to do likewise. Another question West Point, of West Point, re sent overses? I promoted higher. Recently Lieut. from the US in faithful to face d faithful in the in tir come due? Will Sergeant Detachment at S Fort Benton, at Fort Hum Benton, Ga West Point? Why does a soldier have to go under his care, to Highland Fall or Newbury, to picture himself as a West Point officer? I was a member of the same detachment at one time and, as I joined no gang, I was forced to leave. Why was Colonel Young, a graduate of West Point, retired and General John Pershing sent overseas? Why was Colonel Young retired and back into the service and never promoted higher? Recently Lied-Col. Green was forced to retire from the U.S. Army, enlisted men of the U.S.A. are forced to face death in time of war and were faithful in the Mexico expedition, why not give in to time of peace as their promotions come due? Will Sergeant Dean tell me why the color 'Detachment at San Antonio, Texas, the Detachment at Fort Humphrey, Va., and the Infantry at Fort Benning, Ga., ar: more social than those at West Point? I was a member of the same detachment at one time and, as a captain, I gang. I was a member of the same detachment once then had many other soldiers with excellent character, who have had to do likewise. Another question is, in the early stage of the War, why was Colonel Young, a graduate of West Point, retired and General John Pershing sent overseas? Why was Colonel Young retired and then called back into the service and never promoted? Recently Lieut.-Col. Green was forced to retire from the U.S. Army. If officers are sent to the U.S.A. are forfeited to death in time of war and were faithful in the Mexico expedition, why not give all a break in time of peace as their promotions come due? Great Dean tell me why the color *Detachment* at San Antonio, Texas, the *Detachment* at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, those at *Fort Myer*, a. at Fort Humphrey, Vt. and the Infantry at West Point?

Theory of Close Relationship of Negro and Monkey Gets Another Set-back. To the Editor: In his president's session of the An President of Professor Henry have stated that early man had seen that did not evolu- tively tree-climbing an assu- mised. Professor O. no recently recent — he brought to snout According to In kind and the tree trees, etc. each, each other, separately from this theory accepted corallor evolution races evolu- tively represents unities represent A great deal in an endeavor to relationship of indeed are almost as many and I to the simulis as peculiar characters. To the Editor: In his presidential address before the opening session of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, Professor Henry Fairfield Osborn is reported to have stated that recent findings of the remains of early man had seemingly demonstrated that man was not the ancestor of that is, man did not come from or through a tree-climbing animal, as the earlier evolutionists assumed. Professor Osborn's claim seems to be pretty firm in his argument, but it is of it comparatively recent—but too lengthy and technical to attempt to enumerate here. According to his theory—which is really not new—both man and the Neanderthal are not kind and the tree-climbers (monkeys, chimpanzees, apes, etc.) have evolved independently of each other, both orders having branched off separately from an original form not yet fully developed. This theory completely disposes of the widely accepted corollary of the early theory that the white races evolved from the simian (monkey) and the black races from the chimpanzee, the whites represent a later, and higher, evolution. A great deal of effort has been expended in an endeavor to bolster this theory of a close relationship to the Negro with the simian family. The evidence is indeed are almost obvious; yet there are at least as many and as important physical resemblances to the simians among the white races. (Physical peculiar to a given species are called characters.) In his presidential address before the opening session of the American Association for the Adoption of Professor Henry Fairfield Osborn is reported to have stated that recent findings of the remains of early man had seemingly demonstrated that mankind did not even walk through an arbor, but rather climbed or through a tree-climbing animal, as the earlier evolutionists assumed. Professor O'brien's claim seems to be pretty justified by evidence—some of it comparatively recent—but too lengthy and technical to attempt to enumerate here. Which is really not new, but newly fortified or demonstrated—mankind and the tree-climbers (monkeys, chimpanzees, apes, etc.) have evolved independently of each other, both orders having branched off from an original form not yet fully identified. This theory compels dispossess of the widely accepted corollary of the early theory that the human family THROUGH the Negro. That is, that the whites represent a later, and higher, evolution. A great deal of effort has been expended in establishing a close relationship of the Negro with the simian family. Some resemblances have been found—some are almost obvious; yet there are at least two differences. The mankind to the simians among the white races. (Physical forms peculiar to a given species are called "characters.") comparison of some of these typical characters will demonstrate this. The Negro has, generally speaking, the broad, and not narrow skin. The Negro skin thin like more Negroes than whites seemingly have an approximation to the simian skull, but the whites have the simian straight The Negro has the flat nose of the white, seemingly have a skull, but the w hat much has been but investigation actor — if we have found to be a scabble blacks and white typical Caucasian scabble covered all armies covered ALL OVEN instances of austance of a other less obivio giving the same it need hardy Negro tribes, or Negro tribes, more charming, cheevan The Negro has, generally speaking, the broad, flat nose of the simian, but the whites have the narrower, more pointed skull, seemingly have an approximation to the simian skull, but the whites have the simian straight hair. Much has been made of the Negro long arms, but investigation shows that the simian character — if we chose to call it simian — is found to be more similar to the human, found to be associated with a low stature, among blacks and whites as well. One of the most typical Caucasian races, the globe population of the United States, relatively long arms; and — more simian still — are covered ALL OVER with close, long hair of the African origin, and in many instances of a Negro people with hairy bodies. Other less obvious differences and resemblances, giving the same sort of proof, might be mentioned. It need hardly be stated that the stories of Negro tribes, or even individual persons, with similar skulls, have been based on mistaken observation or are pure fiction. Much has been made of the Negro's long arms, but investigation shows that this simian character—if we chose to call it simian—is found to be a very rare breed. It is very rarely found to be associated with a low stature, among blacks and whites as well. One of the most typical Caucasian races on the globe—the Aimos of Japan, who are very short—have these relatives. The Aimos of Africa covered ALL OVER with close, long hair of the texture of the hairy ape. (I do not recall any instance of a Negro people with hairy bodies.) Other less obvious differences and resemblances, giving the same sort of proof, might be men- However, Professor Osborn's theory makes all these comparisons need to prove a relationship. Most important of all, he is of the opinion that the human race assume d's present form on the earth, and that the African ancestry of the arboreal (tree-covered) regions to the south; the other branch of the original stock remained in the forest and developed into tree-climbers. From this, it is possible to conclude that Africa and Europe. Hence, Africans are at least as "youth," as a race, as are the Europeans.

It makes us what we are, and truly fortify the validity of his statement and the firmness of his stand against rotten preachers, as he calls us. Christianity is not as attractive as it used to be. There are so many other attractions and distractions and then, too, the church program has not kept abreast of the times, but there was a time when people used to die for their faith; now they lie abed mornings. There was a time when people used to face the best of the days, unarmed, now they face the radio, unmoved. Now we have a brand new problem that invades our lives: Do we move? Do we really care? We should think of our young men aspiring for the sacred ministry. To whom all else do they look for the highest degree of success, is it to read of corruption among certain of our clergy? If you were under the care of a doctor whom you knew was running your health, would you get another? Of course not, you would get another. Sad to say, Christianity is not as attractive as it used to be. There are so many other attractions that make it a great program has not kept abreast of the times, but that is not the argument. There was a time when people used to die for the faith. There was a time when people used to face the wild beasts of the arena, unarmed, now they face the radio, unmoved.

To whom else do they look for the highest ideals than their clergy? What encouragement is it to read of corruption among certain of our members? Do we know who knew you were ruining your health, would you continue to keep him? Of course not, you would get another. How much church suffer? Why must the minds of the young become corrup? Let us resolve to set a standard and let that standard be rigid and set and see what the Protestant Church crumble as gloriously as it rumbled, and we shall be likened to the Romans of Nero's time, who amused themselves by the innocent Christians were burned at the stake.

By JAMES W. IVY Paul Morand, cosmopolite and globe-trotting Frenchman, spent the winter at the Alta travel book is reminiscent of the many others that he has written: "Nothing but the Earth," "The Living Buddha," "The Great Book," "Venezuela, Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Trinidad, and Mexico." A few extracts will give an idea of its scope and indicate what a sea of thinkers of the people of the Antilles. November 18th: "Yesterday I heard the ship's personnel complaining about being obliged to serve so many Antilles, that I thought they were transported at government orders. These Antilles may be linked to their white brethren, and that they are allowed to take their families (first class) on a trip to see the 'mother country.' They throng the best steamers, and I was surprised by the expense are hard to please. They also drive away the trade of the Cubans, Colombians and Venezuelaans in the assistance for Negroes to the English and Dutch lines." Point-a-Pilfe. Here Morand is charmed by the spacious market place and the numerous legnins he drives a bargain for their wares. "On the other side of the pavement we meet with fighters fighting under their arms." All Colors Mingle Curacao. "Here all languages are spoken, all monies accepted, and all services rendered. As sort of prefiguration of the future humanity, where people will no longer be yellow, white, or black, but alternately mixed and engaged in trade." Haiti. "The Haitian loves our country, and we are proud of our own history." "The present ruling party here is opportunist and resigned, for the moment at least, and we are not the President of the Republic is the greatest beneficiary, since it is through this means that he can re-establish himself, not convened the Chamber for ten years." Dinner with the Haitian president. "My principle: the iron hand in the velvet glove. An enemy of hardness; a friend of energy like fire, as possible but severe when necessary." "Don't confuse the just punishment of the law with torture. We have been doing this for a long time, it hasn't been done since French colonial days. You have heard the tale about Colonel Rochester, who killed some Haitian ladies to a funeral ball; hung black draperies behind which he had lined up the heads of his victims while they were dancing. In Europe and the United States there are still other frightful acts of violence over butcher! No doubt you have heard talk of him, and the Italian who used to eat the heart of his victims. At this moment the American High-Commissioner and his wife, Mrs. Rochester, who are coming for tea, 'star' stay." The General is very agreeable and we feel ourselves common friends. There is official duty, and we are pleasibly hide the complete, the profound, and the implacable hatred of this high American foe. Styles from Paris Some sidelights on Haitian character. The Haitians are Latin and then French from Haitien but from Paris. "At table they talk politics. The Haitians are first Latin and then French, and they are political quarrels, the Haitians willingly espouse ours. All the young people here are Camelots du Roi or Rede." The Haitians love France sincerely; they understand her and are not afraid of her. "When the Haitians say that they love us it means that they hate the Americans. It is the same way with the French, who have been supervised by the Americans. The Philippines have suddenly discovered the Americans, whom they once hated. "When night falls, a great silence reigns in Port-au-Prince. They dine in the restaurant, thirty or eighty everybody is in bed." Jamaica A few hours in Jamaica results in this reflection: "English hypocrisy, which is an individual fault, is a magnificent socal virtue. It prohibits the ruling classes from ever showing itself in a degrading light in the eyes of the natives, and the whites, in consequence never lose caste in the native's eye. This is shown by the difference in the attitude of the colored people." "When an American gets drunk he lowers himself in the eyes of the natives; and a Frenchman quickly falls into disrepute when he parades out of a shop in front of everybody with his arms full of bundles. Then the Frenchman loves to talk about equality and to make love to the native women and to accept the paternity of his bastards. But the Englishman is hated and respected." Pleasure Taxis Here is a question: "Why do the taxis of Kingston, have the word taxis? Because they are in large lekkers? Is it because the taxi is the Anglo-Saxon cabinet particulier?" The Author: In *Cad.

PENDER Chips from the Quarry Several talks have been devoted to capitalization and several more talks coopied to devoted to it without exhausting the subject. But, for newspaper work, the most important matters have been covered. One of the aims has been to show that, in their reaction against the practice of overcapitalization of a few years ago, a few newspapers went to the other extreme, and some of the textbook writers followed. The result was that newspaper practice differed from magazine and book practice, thus still further confusing. What already troublesome and complicated. There has been a general return to the modern consistent and defensible methods in capitalization just as in the case of the so-called reformed spelling, which had considerable vogue about thirty years ago but is almost out of use now—certainly in the better class of publications. To be sure, there are die-hards in printing practice as in politics, religion, statecraft, and even in science. But the tribe grows smaller. There are still a few newspapers, which follow the rule of certain textbooks which says, do NOT capitalize the word denying the form of the organization while it occurs at the end, and good many yet fall to capitalized "street," "avenue," etc., at the end of a name. An attempt has been made in these talks to show that both practices are equivalent, the higher class publications do capitalize every word that enters into the text, the lower class articles and propositions or other minor words), that is, we should write: Redwood Street, Second Baptist Association, and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the form of organization (or class of object) is capitalized whether at the end or in the middle. The subject of capitalization is dismissed for the present—though a little later, with the permission of the editor, carried one or two talks further. More Broadway.

JONES Understanding More of Herbert Hoover. The more you talk to race leaders not in the political bread line, the more you think the things which Herbert Hoover is doing at the White House, the more you feel that he is making a failure and conducing the affairs of the nation. He will have to be either a big hypocrite or a heartless and disillusioned man, to keep some of his fundamental duties from filtering down to the benefit of the group; and while he has not done what he should for political plums nor done what he should as the best thing by making a sweeping job of taking discriminatory actions out of all government affairs, such measures as he has made have been inspiring. Hoover might have handed down some jobs and allowed them to act as a smoke screen to hide the effects of discrimination affecting the his problems at the foundation. For instance, Hoover is allow- ment enforcement booster. That missile is certain to come prohibition enforcement booster. That missile is certain to come unenforced amendments. He is acting to curb naval and army expenditures and to have the world organize an international po- lition. He is also provoking every nation to make "gats" shoot down any less armed nation provoked grievance. When you realize every time the clock ticks away one minute, out of the pockets of the nation, you are facing past and future wars and the per- sions they pile up, you will understand what the peace of the world was. The peace of the nation was left in the laborers' pockets to buy food, clothing and pro- education, commerce and culture. He has forced big business to adopt a policy of regarding the re- sults of war. He has forced the workings masses and of sharing with them alike in times of war. This policy, preventing much unemployment, has done more for the group as a whole the past three months in Washington could have done. This, however, is no excuse for not giving the big jobs, and Hoover should set the example there as well. His move to make farm life profitable to every farmer should turn the minds of thousands of young men and women to opportunities in the rural sections and give the group its real and perhaps only chance to ever get a ground floor hold on one of America's biggest industries. What benefit we receive in the latter will depend upon ourselves, however. We need to begin local and national farm organizations, buying and selling combines and cooperatives. For instance, here in Baitimore this week is meeting ten farm groups and they will make plans for the control and development of all major farm operations in the state. Why Not a Local Arbitration Body? Last week certain members of the Irving Hughes Royal Southerners left that organization to join an organization headed by A. Jack Thomas, setting forth several reasons for their action. Both of these estimable orchestra leaders of course were out of the competition between them, but this and other cases which have come to be known as the formation of an arbitration association conducted by members of the group. The Jewish group in Baltimore has maintained a tribunal to which they have carried minor civil disputes, especially those in court costs and expensive litigation. The laws of Maryland and some other states provide for a small fee, and the judges are recognized by courts of law. The process is simple. For a small fee, competent judges who review the evidence and render their decision in cases where both parties agree did not save the group much money, but could become a valuable asset in developing respect for our own ability to justify judge and govern ourselves. Within three days here in Baltimore during the past week there were eight major crimes, each attributed to members of the group. One of them, a revolting murderer, the arrest of an alleged mental detective and war-wounded veteran of our group, has caused also a crime. The fact is there has been no "Negro crime wave" nor has there been a "white crime wave." For three killings the count is as follows: Reuben Heyman, white, killed; Negro accused of killing Loco, Loco, white, killed; Two white men accused and arrested Wolf Shaner, white, accused and arrested as yet. Mrs. Dorothy Surges, white, assaulted; colored man accused and killed The other two crimes include the men have been accused but not arrested. It was probably the attack on the two white women which are accused of the murder of citizens alike must hope that the perpetrator of such a dastardly deed will be brought to speedy justice and found guilty according to law. There is alaw vs an unusual psychology present when such crime is perpetrated, or regarded as merely a criminal at once becomes a "Nero criminal" and on the defensive and fails to feel fully the terrible nature of the crime itself. Baltimore, like most cities where opium is followed racial lines, has a larger proportionate colored crime rate than white. With seven per cent of the population, it forty per cent of the number of arrests. This will continue in strict proportion as they are committed and participation in governmental agencies. Here, however, is a civic responsibility resting on every officer and the factory which cause this increased crime percentage are removed, $100,000 ON HAND FOR LINCOLN DORMITORY Bosenwald Adds $50,000 to Sum Given by Education Board. of University's Founder Published.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, January 11, 1930 Speaking of the Christmas and New Year's cards, I found some of them to be awfully clever, par example: the one from Pauline Young in Wilmington: "If you know your whistletoe, Yule have a Merry Kismass" By the way, "Polly," I bought a little a bunker, a whistletoo—a big bunkcell! I think I have one branch log. You see after getting it home, I'm some reason of other I saw no necessity for hanging it; take that any way you like—you can't go wrong; so I merely placed it in a vace on the table, and one after another of those who are just helped in the effort to go up the floor, or just helped himself (usually herself—simply as a light scurfen of the season—donchaknow).

NEW ORLEANS, La. — (CNS) — Claiming that the operation of great New Orleans institutions do much to stimulate the advancement of the South, Dr. Thomas Els Jones, president of Fisk University, urged the development of great universities for negroes at Atlanta and New Orleans, in an interview here Monday. “Negro education means more to the people of the South than they appear to realize,” Dr. Jones asserted. “Until Negroes can obtain a liberal education in their native sections in company with members of their race the South will not deviate as it would. To Make Leaders "At Fisk University we are attempting to make leaders of the students who come to Nashville for their education and graduates of Fisk are going from the university to college. We are following by application of their learning. Negroes who came frm n cities have gone back to their homes and cleaned up and markedly improved living conditions in their neighborhoods, making health care better for women better for Negroes." The proposed establishment of a great Dillard University here by the merging of Straight College and New Orleans University.

Meets Count Pepito d'Abatina, but Won't Tell Whether She Married Him. By MAURICE ROCHAMBEAU Published by the APO-AMERICAN through special arrangement with Jason Goldberg, managing director of Gold Talking Pictures, producers of Josephine Baker's serial film production, "The form of the Tropics." CLEVELAND THEATRES By GEO. D. TYLER CHAPTER VIII Josephine's life was now a procession of triumphs. . . Returning to Paris, she became the star of the Folies Bergere, and for over twelve seasons, 1928-29 she played in interlacing rhythms of the Charleston and Black Bottom. But her life had now grown more complicated and more diverse. The theatre, which had monopolized her time and ambition for so many years, now began to pale in glamour. She wanted more excitement. . . more grace. The gay and vibrant life of Paris of which she had been the center, the luxury; the gold and diamonds to which she had become accustomed—even the rare diamond that Josephine Baker was dimmed for Josephine Baker, the little goddess whose golden skin had captivated the old world, wanted a new thrill! Met Italian Count Among her admirers there was an Italian nobleman who had proved quite fascinating. His name, Pepito, aroused in her well-heated in well-heated in the breast of woman at the sight or sound of a pleasant thing. For a long time she considered his proposal of marriage—but on this point, whether or not he bride Josephine has ever remained discreetly silent. "I will discuss my business—my career—but not my private affairs," she had often repeated. "I will say, that Count Josephine Abatha is my ex-master. It was about this time that Josephine discovered a new medium for the expression of her art. It was the movies! For days she had been at attention, and the movies around Paris. She watched with eager interest the manner in which the cinema was produced and then finally, because they knew that she was burning with curiosity to see her actress admirers, her big chance. Gets Movie Chance Maurice deKobra, author of the novel, "Madonna of the Sleeping Cars," was asked to write a story for her first appearance, a scenario based on the life of more other than Josephine Baker herself! The film was called "The Siren of the Tropics," in which she portrays the role of a girl, risen from the most insecure of the stars, to the star of the Poles Bergere. In the filming of the pictures actual scenes were made of the Poles Bergere, the entire company taking part in the production. Josephine's most memorable scene, particularly the banana dance, most famous of her entire repertoire. Of this dance, one critic has said: "The bananas are green when she comes on the stage, but when she has finished her dance, they are ripe!" Proud of Film Speaking about the which she prizes above all her other achievements, Josephine said: "The Siren of the Tropics" is dedicated to my friends in America. I have thrown alm of myself into the music room, and I want to see me, will find me to my best advantage in this picture. Whatever I may do in the future, this will always be the most gratifying experience of my life! prano; Dorothea Beckloff, centrale; Marion Brinn, cronoer; Dudley Wilkinson, teor.; Westall Cordon, tenor; Hannelor Brenn, tenor; Charles Theodor, clarinet; Robert Denk, trumpeter; orchestra, 8:30; Yasha Buncheal Orchestra —Mary McCoy, soprano; Phil Ohman and Victor Arden, two piano duo; Prisk Luther, tenor; Muted Singers; Michael Koch, tenor; orchestra direction, Gustave Haesen. 9:00—"Our Government."

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, January 11, 1930 FOUR HARMONY KINGS SCORE IN ENGLAND American Quartet Pleases Holiday Crowd at New Theatre, Oxford. ENCORED TEN TIMES Make Big Hit in Cabaret Appearance. LOUDON. — The Four Harmony Kings who were headliners at the New Theatre, Oxford, were the usual risk. There are twenty-one English Colleges in Oxford, a typical college town, with students from all parts of the world. America is represented by 150. The Daily Mail, local paper, said of them: "To say that the Harmony Kings were the whole of the programme would be to do much less than justice to some other excellent turns at the New Theatre, Oxford, last night. Nobody need complain, all the same, if the Harmony Kings remain the happiest and the strongest in the memories of this week's show. "It was refreshing to see a cautionary audience, freed from the cares of autumn term, call them back again and term, call them back again and term." "That they came back — it must have been eight or ten times — with such unaffected pleasure, went a good way towards the evening's general success. "And added to the gaiety of nations. Behind their artistry are countless generations of sng and mimicry. In this country, happily there are few of us who can resist Negro melodies. Long may it be so. But we shall wait some time for anything as good as this in its own Star at Cabaret Their first cataret appearance, which was the occasion of Rhoda Lady Carlisle's benefit at the Kite Cat was a complete success according to Mr. Gospis in the London Daily Sketch, who says: "There was an extensive cabaret despite accidents and ailments. "Anton Dolin had fallen, cutting his knee badly, and could not dance. Nona Holt had lost her voice with a sigh. "She had a child." So the Four Harmony Kings who provide greater variety in their turns than any Negro singers, for they sing anything from spirituals to the noise of a train going off, stepped into the cabaret. "It was their first appearance in cabaret, and highly successful." T. O. B. A. Theatre Owners Booking Association SHOWS OF ALL KINDS WANTED CONSECTIVE BOOKINGS Communicate with Sam. E.

Henderson who is known as the "radio cracker" received a wire from a Georgia white man recently, stating that the Georgian had some distinguished colored people as his guests that evening and hoped Henderson would refrain from the word "migger" in the dialect which he uses. Henderson's reply before the microphone was: "Well, well, here is a Georgia 'cracker' entertaining some 'niggers' and he doesn't want me to call 'em niggers'. What do you know about that? Wonder what they call them over in Georgia? Over here in Mississippi we call em 'niggers' and I've heard them called 'niggers' in Georgia, too." N.Y.

HEATRE The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, January 11, 1930 From the Front Row The Pleasing "Devils." The Royal gave us one of the best entertainments we've had this season with its presentation of the "Devil's Frolics." Last week. been present all the while why the world seems bent on going straight to that rule of the nether regions, but oh, boy! If it really is as enchanting there as represented in the Carey-Davis revue, guess I won't bother about mending my ways either. To begin with, there was enough of a plot woven into this syncopied to study hold one's interest from the beginning to the ending of the revue. And to end with, there is a fast stepping aggregation, the Howardettes, who are an evening's entertainment in themselves. These chorines, who include Ristina Banks, Katherine Vigal, Claudia Haywood, Lolita Hall, Bee Green (who, by the way, is a Baltimore as is Miss Hall), Celestine Howell, Ty Alexander, Virginia Brennan, Fisher, Bertle Wood, Billie Marshall and Frankie Maxwell, have been furnishing the background for a season of presentation stuff featuring guest artists at the Howard Theater in Washington under Addison Curry. There then is Danny Rheubottom who shed, and she gave a group of some that wereprise in such a revue. Sentimental ballads, they were, and surrogacy, the audience ate them up. But Miss Rheubottom has a voice. She also has a distinctive personality. She isn't the type one expects to find in a revue lead. Rather lacking in the characteristic "it." But in this age of exaggerated S.A., her demure dignity is refreshing. Billie Wyle and the Baines Brothers, the former in acrobatic dancing and the latter in stunts, held the acrobatic end of the program down. And for comedy there were John Mason of "Jazz Regiment" fame, Speedy Smith and Johnny Lee Long, all of them good. Jackie Mabley as comedienne gives some good entertainment, if you like that kind of stuff. Miss Mabley is just as un-suggestive as she dares be and still hold the part of the house who want a little "risqueness" along with their entertainment. She even got away with the old Hall-Coham-SMIT impersonation stunt. She could do some good eccentric dancing if he tried. He puts just enough of unexpectedness into an ordinary step and is just funny enough looking without trying to be funny, to get away big with something of an individualistic nature. Slick Chester and Putney Dandridge add to the Devil's enticement. The Baltimore opening was the initial presentation of the revue, and if the company is in for a good season's run and the folks along their itinerary are in for some good entertainment. SHELL OUT OR SHUT UP. Some weeks ago we got the sad tidings that "Black Carl" one-time stage magician and more recently the land at the Metropolitan Opera Some weeks ago we got the sad tide magician and more recently head car House, had journeyed from the land on.

But in these case with the salt cellar anyway, not following our expectations, even when we are in a position to begin who have been crowing about what to their old pal had they known he need cough up or cash out. And all the notables who frequent stage, who were so generous with the and who so highly valued his friends will now have to be generous with the four finishers. Wouldn't have been so bad, if Carey needy circumstances. That would be Now as it is we've got to show up or though left for me, I can send all to my desk, his present address and wai Misery loves company, you know. On the report of his passing, the New York dailies dug up all the interesting facts of his history, painted up the uninteresting ones until they were gleaming facts of virtue, overlooked all the things he should have done and didn't do, and were equally forgetful of all the things he did do that he shouldn't have done. The sepia prints immediately took up the hue and cry, and because of their closer connection and with reminiscences pouting into offices from old trumpers who played with him in the ago, they were able to add even a gleamour than the other papers had. Now comes the news that Carl not only isn't dead, but is very much alive with good prospects of being on this old terrestrial ball some time to come. Now I think it is a shame for anyone to cheat on us like that. Doesn't everyone know that all those flowers are never meant for living ears? Who ever heard of letting anyone know all the good things about himself—with a leavening of the not-so-good, too? (May I phrase here to make an exception in the case of poor business, with possessive possibilities.) But in these cases, the praise is always served along the salt collar anyway.) What on earth could Carl have meant by not following our expectations, even if he was so negligent as to place us in such an embarrassing position to begin with. Think of all his old cronies who have been crowing about what they would have liked to have done for their old pal had they known he needed their aid, and will now have to cough up or cash out. And all the notables the Metropolitan both off and on stage, who were so generous with their praise of Carl's loyalty and worth and who so highly valued his friendship (at least to reviewing reporters) would be generous with their pocket books or be shown up as fourfushrs. Wouldn't have been so bad, if Carl had just lived and not still been in needy circumstances. That would at least have left us a hide-behind. Now as it is we've got to show up or be shown up. There's one consolation though left for me. I can send all those old cronies whose letters came to my desk, his present address and show them either dig out or squirm.

Adah Louise Killion Teakins, who taught in excellent work she accomplished during the short time she was a member of the music department staff of our local public school system, and who worked so assidiously to establish a museum partiment. College is now engaged with classes in piano and theory. Mrs. Jenkins, in addition to being an excellent teacher of her chosen branches, is a pianist of more than average ability, and ten heard both in concert and over ten as soloist and as accompanist. Musical Egotists Baltimore, from time to time, has had within its confines many talented musical enthusiasts, real amateurs (in the trunc sense of the word) who have spent time, money and energy in attempting to master some branch of the great art, such art lovers actually achieve attainments that are not-worthy. Again, such music lovers accomplish but little, as far as acquired powers to produce music is concerned, but they sometimes deepen their appreciation of music musicians, are in the community, when they have the good sense not to pose as musical experts, nor to run hither and thither in the community, assuming the duties of music critics. They usually begin a tirade of abuse against some musical achievement in the community, this bromide: "don't know anything about music, but I know good music when he bear it." It is self-evident truth that if one knows nothing about a given thing, it would be impossible for that same person to know what is good or bad about the given thing, nevertheless, the person most of him knows what he likes, and possibly he likes will always seem to be good to him. The canons which govern any of the great universal media of human expression, whether that expression takes the form of painting, sculpture, drama, dancing, music or what not, must be developed over a long period, and they are slowly crystallized through the natural selections of the masses. Hence, it follows that the man in the street must be considered the likes of a sculptor, the ultimate imagination of what the form of the work of art must take. Yet the man in the street, as an individual, cannot be taken as a criterion of what is wholly good or bad in the field of music. Usually his conclusions are drawn after far too few experiences and in a much too limited field of experience. Finally, his judgments are based entirely on what he feels at any given moment. Conceited, self-centered, musical egoists have their place in the community inasmuch as they often stimulate real musicians to greater endeavor. A Regrettable Separation. It is with regret that I learned that Irving Hughes and his former Royal Slowenders have had a misunderstanding, which has resulted in their separation. Mr. Hughes is an accomplished musician and has done much to improve the group formerly known as the Royal Southerners. Like the resourceful and versatile leader that he is, Mr. Hughes has lost no time in assembling a new group of musicians which still carry on as the Royal Southerners. Judging, from the splendid showing his new group made during the holiday season just ending, Hughes has no intention of passing out of the group to the former group and their leader may find it possible to patch up their difficulties and carry on as before. Unfortunately, whenever a group of our musicians seem to be headed somewhere, dissemblers crop up and attempt to disrupt our musical. This sort of business results in our leaders sending out of town for other competent musicians. Then there is an uproar on the part of our local men. Musicians, like other. workers. things that "Black Carl." one-time stage marriage man at the Metropolitan Opera at the living.

"GINGER SNAPS" LACK GINGER, CRITICS SAY "GINGER SNAPS" LACK GINGER, CRITICS SAY Latest Musical Comedy to Seek Broadway Fame, Gets Roasting. CAN'T LAST LONG Many Leave Theatre at Close of First Act. NEW YORK. — "Ginger Snap:" the latest race musical comedy to seek fame on Broadway, is not likely to find it, if the word of reviewers who saw the piece at the Belmont Theatre, can be believed. The New York World said: "By way of driving the last nail into the coffin of poor old 1929, a well-meaning group of young Negroes put on last night at the Belmont Theatre a completely unbeatable revealed 'Ginger Snaps.' It was, even, from the amateur standard, a dismal exhibition of assorted abilities to dance, sing or amuse. In addition to which various members of the cast and was framed out of step, with much light as there were frequently refused, to work. "The numbers were called respectively, Snap One, Snap Two, Snap Three and so forth. The cheerful but undisciplined ladies of the chorus were listed in the program as 'Snapperpet' to a little report, unless the presence in an all-Negro revue of a sketch about chicken-stealing and another about Dixie is news to you. The sketch about stealing chickens was entitled 'A Fowl Deed.' The rest of the humorous element in 'Ginger Snans' was not far from that level. 'Well, 1929 might as well die one way was to steal it' is a pity that the old veteran didn't have a slightly better funeral. And now that the blackboard is bare and blank again let's all hope for a louder and funnier New Year." Nothing in it In the opinion of the New York Evening Graphic: "Whatever may be the amount of support colored revues have among New York's theatregoing public, it was diminished when 'Ginger Snaps' came to the Belmont Theater. Variations editions of 'Blackbirds' have those addicted to jazz 'Ain't Misbehavin', but this reviewer could see nothing in the newest plantation opus. **Called Crude** "All this is aside from a very definite crudeness in mechanics which marred the opening night performance. The offering was received with demonstrative hostility, most of which left after the first of the show. Two blacks, one concerning a man who robs a safe to get a safety bin and the other centering around fur smugglers and an effeminate member of the Northwest Monster, plus the activi- vation of Boots Swain and John Lee, comedians who brighten the evening."

Elks' Band Concerts Continuing the good community work already begun by the local bands here in Baltimore, the Pride of Baltimore Elks' Band has scheduled four concerts to be given in local churches.

FINE IMPERSONATOR Press-Praises His "Wordless" Entertainment By FRANK BYRD Maurice Hunter, famous, creative model, whose features have been widely displayed in advertisements, magazine stories, and other media, may soon be seen on the concert stage. Hunter has been an artist's model for a number of years and has been in great demand because of his perfect features. He has posed for some of America's most prominent painters, sculptors and illustrators, among whom are Charles Gibson, God Frank, Dean Cornwell, Eugene Savage, Herbert Morton Stoopes, Daniel Chester French and many others. Maurice has also modeled for the New York Art Students' League; the St. Louis School; the New York; Yale School of Fine Arts, New Haven, Conn.; Penn Academy of Fine Arts, Philadelphia; and a number of others. His entertainment, which is unique and different from the usual song and reading concert, is full of dramatic action, wordless but deeply impressive. Some of his most popular characterization are "One of the Wise Men on the Mountain" and "The Bull Fighter" and "The Pirate." All costumes worn by Hunter are imortations from Africa, India and other lands. Press Praise Him Of his ability, the Literary Digest has said: "Maurice Hunter is one of the most sought-after models for artists and schools because of unique gifts of impersonations and a figure of practically perfect physical proportions. He has a keen sense of the drama." The Rochester (N.Y.) Times-Union said: "Mr. Hunter can throw himself into a character by realizing its psychology as does the successful actor." "Chocolates" Closing Forced by Belasco? Report Says Magnate Felt Race Revue Was Hurting One of His Shows NEW YORK—(ANB)—Sculpture as why "The Chocolates" that red hot revue, left Broadway is partially settled by the statement accredited to a well-known theatrical personage that David Belasco stepped in and leased the Hudson Theater for his show. The Blind Window, a show that Belasco believed many people who ordinarily would have come to see his current production, "It's a Wise Child," stopped in passing the "Hot Chocolate" display and went in to see that performance. He then leased the Hudson Theatre for "The Blind Window," a prison drama that appealed to the public. China "City Hall," a new comedy, supplants "Hot Chocolates" opening December 30.

Is now a member of Charleston's intelligence, where she meets Frank North. A year later he violates and violates. He is very talented and worthwhile, and is in love. Is now considerably digressed with her lofty associates. One day she tells Mamba that she is the head of the group of her Nebra baggage, all her friends are trying their "dammest" to be white. nudistinia Whitmore, a mutate beauty and the true flapper type, seeks Lissia's companion. But Lissia, because of her refined nature, is rather aardvark of Gardinia's overbearing. Girlfriend has asked Lisa to accompany her on a "wild" party. After much in-flight outfitter asks, she disappears when abandons her accustomed rescue girlfriend, the lifegillating life of the party. The village shelf, whose favor is courted or all the fair damsels, is at- price, the village shelf, whose favor is courted or all the fair damsels, is at- right to Lissa. He proceeds to give Lissa a "good time." Prince does not meet with the approval of Mamba. Nevertheless, Lissa introduces Prince as the young couple are about to go upon another of their fre- mains to�� rides. The auto ride ends at a dance, where the whole crowd falls a victim in their's bad liquor. Gardinia, a member of the crowd, recovers from her intoxicated red early after she has discovered that Prince and Lissa have disappeared from the health. The change in the state of Lissa is due to the increase in the number of people who are living in the state. The state has also been削减. The state has also been削减.

She loops into Mamba’s arms and together, they leave the Hagar, completely herself, unleashes her great strength upon the cowing and ungrateful “Prince”. She is forced into hiding. Mamba sends Lisa to New York City, where Saint Wentt mets her. She takes a taxi for the home of the Reverend Thomas Grazier, who, upon arrival, offers Lisa the protection of his home—especially after Lissa produces the stress given to her mother many years before by Grazier. —NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY— downs had quieted down again after the first cock-crow, and she wom, misty blobs of darkness, and along a limb against the sky meant a good hour of the day, her skirt and tucked it high like a field hatch, leaving her long legs bare to the knees and unimpeded. Then she wom, and the moon set in the distance of Bluton's shack. The moon had set, withdrawing a diffused radiance from the misty sot, to that now event, which she wom, and the moon set in the distance of Bluton's shack. But the tides of life had definitely set toward the new day, and in little exhilarating waves she wom, air with those subtle vibrations that are the precursors of our own exhilarating figure of the woman awakened. The movement about her unknewed. She threw a glance behind her, and she flicked a finger of light touch the mist she suddenly she was upon that hour of the twenty-four when Earth magnifies her creation, when in her bed, with beginnings. The void through which Hagar no longer longed to polish his hands was swirling and pulsing. The mist and divided itself into vast, movin', bodies that hated the swirling, until an unseen force seized them and rised them together in silent tug. The woman's magic of it, and gazeing about her, she saw fine incarnate masses heaped up in the void, obliterated by the mist, when she looked again, the curves withdrawn and the young ones cabins and cabins. The light gathered. It poured along the ground, caving tree from the void, that still clutched reticating leaves and peopled them with separate leaves. Then, as at a pen signal, the tree was shrilled from the bushes, and like an ominous oil Hagar heard the teeming life of the swamp before she had been tricked to beauty, and day had taken her unaware, into a dog trot. It was imperative that she reach the shack before people were up and about. The voice of the swamp grew louder, the swamp itself, bulk of the shack. Bobman was lying where she had been. Quickly she b bent over, then he braced him, then casting a hasty glove around, she went out and closed the door. She had a hundred yards to travel for cover, she ran across the shack, the sun pierced the skin and drenched the clearing with it. It outlined the huge figure of the woman with fire, and cast a shadow on her. She labored forward beneath her head and gratefully postured buries. She extended an arm and parted garlands of vines, then she passed into welcoming gloom. She oozed squirted between her toes covered her feet. She heaved her elbows relief and paused for her breathing. First she must dispose of, the body, to do this most effectively she should move where no one would be like to end it. She bent forward and asked the burden from her shoulder to be as blissfully as possible, tearing a way through the matted growth with a right hand while she steamed the position caused her to advance with a wristed head and eyes fixed on the shallow water through which she watched the little mirrors flung back pictures of sky seen through swaying leaves with small white clouds tinted in the beame aware of the reflection of an object that projected over her water, and looked down into the water, and the reflection did likewise. Then he recognized its cause as the head she hung over her shoulder close to it. With the first sense of uneasiness that, her deed had brought to her the shifted her load so that it would no longer gaze downward and start-up forward again. But with an al-nosed, animate persistence, the body moved with each stride, and gradually the round, blank silhouette, in the eclipsed the miniature skies through which she waded. Now her an�grose, and she splashed heavily through the water, shattering and dissp�ing its reflections. An hour passed, and the sun, now will over the tree-tops, commenced to draw a thin steam cut of the trump. The din of voices that had brushed day commenced to abate the in drowsy diminuendo into the almost complete silence. Then a lags, reached the dense growth of the clogged the central area of the grass and made progress difficult as air about her broke into a shrill colossus whine, and a black cloud of aphytoceps enveloped her, settling the dust on head, shoulders, and the involuntarily she struck out with both hands. With a heavy splash her burden fell from her back and INSTALLMENT XV semi-fluoid ouse. Slapping wildly at the madening cloud, and with her hand she turned her back on the body and broke savagely through the tangle in search of one of the little islands that rise through the water of the swamp in a slight harbourage from the pest. At last she found it a knoll of high ground, lifting it out of the cypress with a regular circle of opaque blue-gray sky. Crooked over almost on all airs, with prehensile hands tearing the great woman emerald of a prehistoric creature quitting its primal slime, and climbed out upon the knoll. At a moment she sat panting heavily, her face and arms streaming with sweet and blood from stings in the pocket she drew a bandana handkerchief, a clay pipe, tobacco, and matches. She mopped her face, filled the pipe and lightened it, then sat down to draughts and blowing it in a cloud about her. The last of the mosquitoes took reluctant flight, and with her hand she turned her back on the grass swamp to think things out. She realised with relief that there was a swamp lay a broad belt of open and populated and planted in truck beds. If night if she would escape detection. She need not resume her journey, but she would and this was the best place to run. She ate breakfast from her package of provisions, and refilled her pipe. Already her fatigue was passing, and her mind commenced to turn over her problem, dwelling upon its various aspects. Usually, when Mamba had told her what to do, that ended it, and she gave the matter no further thought. But now, with the realisation that the guiding genius of that intelligence had gone from her, gone perhaps forever, a sense of individual responsibility bore down upon her and forced her to study and reason on her own account. Mamba had had to think mighty quickly there in the dark with Lissa waiting to hurry away to safety. And Mamba did not know this country as she did. Did not know Proc Baggart, for one thing. Mamba's plane depended for success entirely upon her escape; her ability to traverse the mainland and reach one of the Sea Islands where there were almost no white folks, and where the Negroes would hide that big clumsy body of her... from the police so that she could not be caught and questioned. Her train of thought broke off, and for a moment her mind was a clean slate. She bluntly intruded itself. She saw his lmbs limbing woodlessly from the water, and black ooze creeping toward his open chest now. Then she wendered if he would hate her. If he would forget that she had saved him one, and she had saved him and left him to rot in the black mud of the swamp. Well, what was done was done, and there was no use worry about it. But Gin laced the edge of the swamp by sunburn and waited an hour, then set out to the southward. But Gin laced the grime "se bright lights" Yes, to the southward, that was what she must think about—thirty hours she could do that by sunrise. Her thoughts came rushed, they made short rushes, BEAUTY for YOU She Nearly Lost Her Husband—Because she Forgot to Keep. Good-Looking. One of the most interesting letters that ins is come to my desk for quite a long time came in this morning. One of my readers tells me an interesting little story that I want to share. At one time she was one of the prettiest girls in her neighborhood. She had beaux a-plenty. She had a lot of friends and finally she got married. Right thru n she forgo all about the things that had been most important before. She had been the care of it and part of the time she worked away from home. Her days were tuxedo, no question about her wives, wastes and after a while years. Then she suddenly found that her husband was forged. She washes her hands and then heartset. She tried and refused to go out anywhere. Everything was a wreck. The life she had been living so contently was, something that was This is what she tells me in her letter but not in the photograph, that she up to the fact that possibly the blame was not on her, but on her mirror studded burses: just as though she was up in an old photograph and studied that photograph HAGAR PAYS A DEBT smbled, brought up against obe- cattentia took alarm, hoisted its idolodging them to stacles, like a child learning to walk. By sunrise. She'd not risk the bridge—but swim across below it. She'd gently toward the cover of the white enign astern, and sailed si- peres. Bridge but swim across below it. She'd swamp. A vagrant air caught the sent of the rabbit and trailed it past the nostrils of the molent curt. The animal raised its muzzle and tugged, long and quaveringly. From a neighboring hamlet half a dozen answers sounded, bell-like in the heavy silence, and the broom straw commenced to sway to the threshing pass one hour before she could out their secrets. With her confidence at its height, Baxter very dishe- wily muddy, with —what then. . . . Yes, the "virgin's" always stuck up for each other. She remembered once when. "He'd be so sad in the hot night Hagar, blood was suddenly chill. She mopped her face with the bandana. She then reftiled and lighted her pipe. The Reverend about. He had said right out in church that spirit's couldn't walk. Even old Maima Vina believed that—woman herself with her herbs, and her money in the road. She would have always wore that shroud.

The Reverend—the Reverend—Hagar made a desperate effort to visi-—the war only a column of whiteness against a wall that had a cross painted on it. What had he said that he was away from her? . . . Spirits only lived in heaven or hell. . . . That was it. The terror that was it. The pressing again. Again her mind was a clean blank. She got to her feet and moved about the island, stretched her limbs, and again became conscious of the heat. She saw that the sun was directly overhead, and she realized that she was hungry. Opening her lunch she ate heartily of her cornbread and cold meat, then lay on her belly and drank a few swallows from the side of the island where the water was clarest. I sense of well-being pervaded her body. Why worry? She'd be on Edisto by to-morrow morning. Likely as not they would never find Bluton and think he had gone away. Then Lissa would always be safe. Some day, a long time off, she might even get back to see Mamba again and hear all about Lissa from her. She stretched her length on the grass, and presently, in the steamy narcotic noon heat, she dropped into sleep. She saw Bluton turn slowly over in the mud. She saw the rigid knee and elbow joints give and the man stand upright. Then she saw him following her path through the swamp, but without effort, and this was strange, for his eyes were blind with swamp ooze. Briars that had impeded her did not detain him. He parted the vines and thrust his face into the cleaning. She opened her hands in a stare. And there he was. After the passage of an indeterminable spac of time the apparition faded. Hagar was terrified, but she knew what she would have to do before she could go to the mosquitoes with tobacco smoke and flailing arms. she retraced her steps and with incredible labour of body and agony of spirit she landed on the spindle. Rigor mirtis was passing, and Hagar composed the limbs directly, and bathed the face with blood. Then, leaving it, gazing up into the open sky, she set off for the outer edge of the swamp. Her spirit soared, her step became light and now she was free of the actual physical pain. She wore wide and straightened her broad shoulders. Gilly would rest easy now with the sun in his face all day and the stars keeping him company at the stent. She was shed of him at last—free. She made sure surprisingly good work was noticed that the trees before her were no longer a solid wall but showed thin places where the light filtered it rough from the open fields beyond. She was on a journey, her senses keen, her muscles vigorous. In contrast to the depression of the morning she waited for the anticipation for the coming of night. Out beyond the trees, where the sun still lay heavy and warm, an abominable mongrel hound rolled over in a broom-straw field, yawned, lifted a fretful hind leg and scratch-ed his mangy ribs. Twenty feet away and then she studied herself again, and right there decided that she she'd been attractive once—and her study of mirrors was a major attraction. She wasn't the girl her husband had married and from that minute on the set I can't tell you here the things that she tells me in this letter but there is a reason why I have passed them. I have letters come to my desk from women who tell the same story. They want to know why their husbands are forgetting them—and the only answer is that they are not in the attractiveness that they once had. 'he' are forgetting to keep 'phily' f'. they are forgetting that a happy face and a graceful body, something in this world's happiness. If you are losing your husband's affection, a other woman, remember that you have a part to play in the game and that the scorer you will to play it, the sooner you will be sure of happiness again.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, January 11, 1930 a extincttail took alarm, hoisted its white enlist asign, and salienced silently away toward the cover of the swamp. A vagrant air caught the scent of the rabbit and trailed it past the nostrils of the sommelian cur. The animal raised its muscled, and the swimmer came. From a neighboring hamlet half a dozen answers sounded, bell-like in the heavy silence, and the broom straw commenced to sway to the threshing of excited tails. With her confidence at its height, Hagar heard them coming. An key hand seized her heart, contracted about it, and her blood crawled frozen through her veins. Dog? A primal terror that was proof against argument and reason silence in the clear, high unceasing rhythm of the tonguing shook along her nerves in her appearance. Her nostrils quirked, guiding force broke the inertia of her body and worked a subtle change in her appearance. Her nostrils quirked, guiding force broke the inertia of her appearance. She faced the sound and commenced to retractlessly wary, wary, great live oak. She spun around. From the round herself climbing, reaching always to higher, higher, higher great live oak. She trembled. When she reached the top branches she crumpled in the heavy foliage and peered down through the leaves and They were near now, and the cry had accelerated until it was a taut roar. She had been running her body and that shortened with every second. The dog: had gotten Ned. He had had cut Buldon. He would have got clean away but for the dogs. The pach passed almost directly beneath her perch. She could scrape her teeth, and she was as she perched down. Then she saw it for win: it was the flash of a small twny body with a bobbing arm, and the parcel of yelping mongrels. Slowly reason returned. They could not have found Gilly yet. She obeyed her instructions, and the parcel of yelping herself in hand and fought the weakness of fear. She became conscious of sunlight about her, sky above, and just below, the plateau above. A shadow swept over her, and she raised her eyes. Scarcely twenty feet away she saw a buzzer. She was blinking—black wings—the baleful, quessing eyes. He was not sailing呀, but winging purposefully eastward. Then another wing, the murmur sound of wines against air. A black premonition caused her to march toward its destination. She knew in that moment that she had lost. To the eastward, the over spot where the www black with flying shapes. They called in the formation of a watercraft but narrowing and whirling faster and faster as it descended until the base disappeared among the rocks. She looked westward and saw the air lanes dotted with still other shapes at the western extremity of the swamp. So Gilly had won. He had been afraid not to fall, after all. What he had in his mind was that she must bring him out into the open where she could find him and tell Poo Baggart. Now she knew that it was useless muscles that could carry her through a race with the living would be unavailing against the cunning of the muscular and proved that Grayon was wrong. Her gaze was drawn back to the eastern skyline and the whirling colossus of snow. The nature of sky it would be visible for miles. Perhaps already Gillad had been missed and searching parties were out there, and that the bay had been that morning. Suddenly, there, in the moment of acceptance of the inevitable, a miracle occurred. Somewhere in the interior remote and remote seabed abiding place, a bolt snapped back, a door opened, and a new courage floored; her being, that had always fortified her against physical suffering. It was something radiant, that shock through her body and her suddenly and astonishingly glad to be there; to wait expectant for a supremum moment of revelation that she knew was coming. She had no need for speed, no need even for Mamba. She herself would be sufficient for the event. A strange, and beautiful sandstorm of light. She turned it this way and that and many dark and obscure things were made plain to her. She knew that Mamba was the one that, when that time, that she did not matter of herself, except that now, at ast, she was going to give her child something of value; some that she could always remember. Squatting on her limb, with only sky above her and trestops below, her mind tucked in and sat in her great flaw. The white men would take her, and they would war" to know everything, and they would leave Lissa away in some dark corner where they could not find her, but she knew that would not await her. She butted her breast and greeted her, but Bergar and the others had so many ways. Their minds could Gig and dance and curve unnaturally, but she denied, she was upon the answer. Her mind seized upon the idea, turned it over, discarded nonessentials, built logically, beautifully, completely, moment had come. She was ready. --- It was past ten o'clock, and Davy wanted to shut up shop and go home. He sat down and looked now and he frequently kept open until late hours, especially in fever season, when there were no white clothes. Davy gathered and talked. Wentworth had agreed to the plan, and Davy had showed with pride that, like most of his ideas, he was a salesman to "boone" and candy during the social hour amounted to a tidy sum. A manager commenced to clear his premises by the simple process of moving among the boxes. Davy and his customers were seated on tiedislogging them forcibly from their i- perches. "Git on home, vov' lazy niggers," he he ordered. "What yo' tink dis is, any- how a' white gentleman club?" he is called to a Negro who was standing in front of shutters. Ben, den come an' gib me a' han' wad dese no' noung niggers. But someone was about to enter, and Ben stepped aside to allow hen to pass. With one accord the Negroes looked up, and there stood Baxter. Very dishwellled and appallied, his skirts fucked up above the knees. Keen observers all they were immediately aware of a change in the woman. The *had* known her as a teacher, as sessions, such as lodge meetings, passed suddenly to the other extreme of temperament and inculded in almost every new and unusual look into her and the animals something new and disturbing. Her heavy features were in repose, but she looked down upon them from a height. Her eyes were wide and unusually bright, and as she crossed the room she evidently made a new coordination or movement that invested her great bulls in dignity, and made her appear almost majestic to the mystified onikokers. When she reached the high counter, she turned her neck to look down looking out over the heads of the Negroes, who had resumed their seats and were regarding her in watchful stance. For a long moment she stood so She did not seem to realize that it was her turn to go home. She seemed to think that she had all the time in the world. Flatly, as though she were not aware of it, one who stood at their backs, she put her first, inexplicable question: white folks calls commitm' suicid'? Before her, eyes showed white glimpses in there. Heads turned to him, common impulse, then faced her quickly again. A woman's voice said, "Fu Gah said, Baxter, don't talk tat! tak!" Then a man said, "Everybody know nigger, nebler, kill, herself." nigger nebber kill herself. "Why dat is?" Baxter persisted in her strangely impersonal catechism. "Cause nigger ain't worry herself, dat much," came the answer. "Tain't always goin' be like 'dat,' Baxter said in a slow, musing voice, as though she were thinking aloud. "Time comin' when nigger goin' worry jes' like white folks, an' den' Gawd goin' show 'em what to do when he trouble get too deep for he to wade trough." The fixed attention of the group broke before a wave of uneasiness. Goodies shifted, and someone started to speak. But now Baxter looked down, and her glance travelled from face to face. "Anybody seen anything cb Glly to-day?" she asked in a matter-of-fact voice. The tension broke. Several of the Negroes laughed nervously. A number of voices were raised in negative answers. But her next question alarmed them again by its irrelevance. "Anybody seen any buzzard roun" here to-day? Yes, they had all noticed buzzards over the swamp. Somebody had lost a hog, no doubt, or maybe a dead. Hagar stood apparently debating the matter, her gaze again at the Negroes. Then with a faint smile she turned to Davy and motioned to a shelf where several dusty account "Get down dat oides" book, Davy "bring um here," and placed it on the counter before her, studying the white with his bright, disturbed eyes. Davy turn back twelve year "we comes to a man by de name Baxter. Ah gots a promise to keep." Davy spun the yellow pages, found with interest, then raised his eyes intently. "How much he owe when he done get drowned?" he asked at the fading penel sencil. It was a dollar and a quarter, he informed her. Hagar drew a ten-dollar bill from the bank, and back was an unusual sight in the commissary, and the Negroes, their curiosity getting the better of their alarm, crowded. Still holding the money, she indicated the large glass jar. "An awful amount for dat bottle obso candy?" he asked to Whole ting? "Do 'whole ting?' he asked in amazement. "Sure, de whole t'ing." "Well dere must be two hundred in dore. Dat'll be two dollar." With a broad gesture he lifted his arm and stopped, and bound the contents in a cataract of re. and white out over the counter. "Help vosela" she invited. "An now dat koq ob bounce: How imitate Davy. In an in threeured voice opined that three dollars would pay for it. Giggers get to dat kek and fyilves up" she commanded. "Ah al de time went to beni gow to a party but Ah ain't had no free money." Slowly she withdrew in the direction of the kek, and Hagar stood after them with something of her old childlike wonder in her mouth. She turned back toward Davy. "Poor ool Baxter" she mused. Ah done keer yo' wan? When she did so, Ah an' ain't done so bad by yo' name. Then she smoke directly to Davy: "What 's all come to Son?" He computed the account at six cents quarter. She handed him a bill, and, as he took it, she said with an expression of exultation in her 'oce': "Don't gimme change, Son. Take um to do de' trow um far an' high he' now, then after an almost imperceptible hesitation, added, "free as Gawd." The amazed youth looks up, but she paused. It was passed. It was as though the Baxter whom he had known, and even the strange creature before, had gone quietly out and another woman had entered. She said in an incisive tone, "I am taking a paper, an take down what Ah say.

Suddenly from the river came the loud bark of a dog, a single shout, then a confused babel of voices. The Negrces broke into a run, and presently they crowded out on the narrow wharf. Beside the pler, seeming to strain its spars upward, lay a schooner that had been moored there the day before. Its crew were already at the pler head gesticulating and pointing downward.

END OF INSTALMENT XV 300 Open Barrooms Estimated in Harlem Greeks Run Fish Joints, Italians Juice Joints, and Every Block Boasts a Beauty Shop. A stranger recently visited New York. Of course, his steps turned naturally to that vastly interesting region known as "Harlem." After looking over the territory to his opinion of the place, "Well," he replied, "the people who live in this section must be three things: first, they second, they must be tremendously fond of fish; third, they must be terrily ugly." They are those "conduitous" challenges he insisted on investment. "I base my first conclusion on the fact that there have been shown me more full-fledged barrios in the city; second, there are more fished fish emporiums in Harlem than in all the rest of the city; third, there is shopping inded a total loss to the community." Fish Joints The fried fish joints are controlled exclusively by Greeks. Seems as though those fellows can take any dish at any rate, they have in the past six months, simply overrun the community with those poorly furnished, unsuspecting dumplings that too gaugy, may purchase a full complete meal of fried fish, fried potatoes, bread and coffee for the small sum of fifteen dollars. In addition to the food he gets, he is also entitled free gratis, to the compliments of the management, to the compliments of the company fishing of varying ages, fried in a deep fat which is changed weekly, maybe. He stole this idea from some colored brethren over on the East Side. The latter are falling by the wayside, but the former are prospering on fried and fried potato dishes. Delicatessen The delicatessen stores are furnishing the succulent chitterling and luscious rotten fruit, the delicatessen devotes the job of being a time when, then two choice viands were the rage in Harlem, now they are the rage in the lineup into the lineup only on festive occasions, such as that elegant function, to Harlem, the "house rent" district. Sometimes they are called "tion". Sometimes these little "get togethers" are dignified by calling them "whistles or" "parlor solemn" whatever the name, the sum of the Bauly Shoppes And, the beauty shoppe! They are legin in Harlem. Every woman who has a hairdressing game. Not only do women indulge in this favorite occupation, but some "men" are jumping too—and they are making money. "Systems" of all kinds may be found in Harlem, the one pull system or the two pull system, you can find it here. This is the only place that thanked George Washington, the Greek, the Italian they understand, but they have their share in it, so they combine and such utilities necessary for the promulgation of the work. But as for owning a beauty shop, they aren't sure of chance. That field is exclusively ours. Barrooms Back to the barrooms for a change. Many of these establishments, run by Italianes, have side and rear entrances, and many have "dresses" "women" or "Ladies" Entrance. And believe me, the women are not ashamed to be seen going into the young ladies, white ladies, black ladies, brown ladies, crippled ladies, in fact, ladies of all sorts, hanning in the rear of the theatre as they are affectionately known. To the gentry of another strata, the trouble of a name. One night I overheard several ladies of the chorus of a noted local theatre talking about the trouble of a girl in the evening or morning, after their regular work was over, and they declared they were going to a "gin mill" for a social session. Oh, they will be boys, just the same as boys will be boys. Elk's Head Strange thing about these gin mills. Wherever they feel like doing it, they sit an elk's head on the window, or 11 Statement Made by New York Labor Leader to Baltimore Interracial Forum. TWO HUNDRED PRESENT Says Race Is Exploited for Super Profits. "Negro workers, inducted into the best labor force and empowered the industrial centers of the North and South are paid the lowest wages and work under the worst conditions," Ole Ote, Baltimore Negro Leader, has addressed his address Sunday to the Baltimore Interracial Workers Forum on the subject, "The Negro in the Trade Unions and In- "Segregation," said Mr. Huiswoud, "im-Crowism, mob violence and violence against the employing class to get superprofits from the labor of the Negro workers, the poor, the gro problem, which is intensified by the economic struggle. is the elimination of the system of exploitation in the work of the workers, the organization of the workers, irrespective of race or color, to install a workers' and workers' government will emanate." 4. F. of I. Betrays "The American Federation of Labor is biting the interests of the workers. It does not organize them into unions. It is only the newly organized revolutionary trade unions that are fighting the Negro workers on an equal basis." Garsey Movement The Garvey movement is planned by the bourgeoisie of the race to turn the minds of the workers from the daily struggles here to the far off future. The bourgeoisie notion that race business men will treat the workers better. Workers must organize to fight against the capitalists, whether they are white or black, and against their exploitation to bring about equality of the race. Part and Parcel Referring to the white workers, Mr. Hislwouw said: "The attitude of the class concerned the worker must be based upon the consideration that in this country there can be no successful revolution or change without the Negro worker being a part and parcel of the white workers. This statement was loudly applauded. Communist Party "The Communist Party," continued the speaker "struggles daily for political power, socially and economically in its special drives to add more." More than 200 persons of a mixed audience listened to Mr Huswildo's plea for united action. Several made our applications for membership in the Communist Party at the close of the address.

Or what does it mean? Or what does the order that it was against the tenets of the order to display the official insignia of the establishment, the usher or connection with any business. And surely if this is true, a mill wheel must be on the elk head. Some call their establishments "antlers," this, that and the other. They even invigle the moose head into their line of business.

This is 133rd Street from Lenox Avenue east to the corner, not worth a tinker's dain in that section of Harlem. There was some talk of "cleaning the streets," but hundred building inspectors" especially sent out to do this task. They must have performed like grasshopper. But that is a section of the city rarely heard of, yet interesting and dangerous.

The Hawkeye suggests it might be a man who searched the searchlight of investigation in the direction of some of the "soot and grease gentry." If the police will throw a rope around the neck of a prominent white man and sneer some soot and grease off his face, the victims may be able to identify the "darkey" at a glance, says the paper.

Bv. R. W. TALIAFERRO A very large majority of people have the impression that good Bridge comes from the steady play of the game and the acquisition of knowledge obtained during this process. Such an impression is very erroneous. "Some persons are endowed with a large amount of hard sense and sense of humor, they improve very rapidly with Bridge just through their playing the game regularly, but there are so many important things in the play of Bridge that the trained student knows, that this acquired knowledge gives little help to the self-esteem of the player, meets with a student of the Game. Most persons think that being a spectator at any game you can see more than the players involved. True. I admit, but if the player has been trained to see certain things, whether they be advantages or disadvantages, he or she, in time, will become a spectator seeing situations as the spectator. Salient points of play, I mean. In watching what I have understood to be some of Baltimore's best players, I saw the following hand played. These players were above the average. I admit, but yet they had not reached a point of proficiency in the play of the ball. I had no opportunity that the student of Bridge is taught to see at first sight. Score Tled Each side had won a Rubber. Each side had one game of the third and deciding Rubber. South won the Declaration with a Spade. North won the deciding eighty points behind. If he could win this game the added bonus for winning two games of the Rubber would have won him the Rubber. He tried hard but this deciding game had just fell one short of winning it. His acquired knowledge of the game failed to give him the advantage that trained knowledge would have. I admit that practically all of the games would have played the hand as he played it and I admit that, with the lacking of trained knowledge he got all that he could have gotten out of the hand. But had he been a trained player he would have made the trick to win the game and would have won the Rubber. The Hand Here is the hand as it was held by the four players: E S Q a H-J-10-7 h A-J-10-4 s D 10-8-5-3 t C 10-6-5-4 S J-10-8- H 9-5-3 D Q-9-6 C A-K-Q-9 The bidding was: South. 1 Spade; West. 2 Clubs; North. Pass; East. Pass; South. 2 Spades followed by West. 2 Clubs, which were cured the contract at 1 Spade as West did not have sufficient strength to make a bid of 2 Clubs. An origi- tion of two signifies a holding of six certain tricks, which he did not have). The Play West, the leader, cashed the Ace and then the King of Clubs on the first two tricks. He led his Queen of Clubs to the third trick which Declarer ruffled in Closed Hand with the six of Spades. (West should not have led his Ace of Spades, but should have led his King of Spades, as the lead of a King shows his partner that he has the Ace or Queen in his hand. The lead of an Ace and then the King signifies, nothing more of that suit.) Dealer, seeing that he has nine trumps in his combined hands and hoping that the adverse four trumps are split two and two, tries to exhaust the trump with two leads of Spades from Closed Hand, the Ace and King, respectively. The second round of trump showed him how unevenly they were divided, making the adversaries sure of one more trick in trump, and a possible trick in Diamonds, in which case Declarer would be one trick short of game. The Declareer led a heart to Dummy's Ace and brought the Diamond lead to Closed Hand trying to finesse his Jack, which, if he were successfull, would have been the go to game. But, he failed, for West held the Queen of Diamonds. Losing this trick lost him all chances of makng game, for after winning the remaining tricks, he only turned the game over, and was sufficient for game. Sad to relate, he not only lost game, but on the next hand lost the Rubber. Finesse I do not censure his trying for the Diamond Finesse, for with his acquired knowledge of the game he could do no better, but had an advanced student been playing the game, still believing that the he was to lose one pumpjack he have figured out a possible way to make up that loss in another suit. This suit would have been Diamonds, but he would not have tried a Finesse from the he knew that there was a fifty-fifty game of Queue laying in the right hand and he did not afford to take a chance with Game and Rubber at stake. I will try to show you how an advanced student would have played the hand to make the winning a certain chance. There are certain changes that can be made. I bring about in the four hands to assure game. It is rather difficult to make the moderate player understand just the changes the Declarer MUST BRING ABOUT to make the fourth trick a certain, but I am not sure how to do that as simple as I possibly can. Kindly follow me closely, step by step. Jack of Spades After the second round of trump Declarer knows without a doubt that the game will be a little disadvantage for he has West at a little advantage for he can put him in the lead whenever he desires. Now then, he has nothing to do but cause a challenge for the game. The force West to give the card that will give him the extra trick for game. Go back to Hand (A), Scrutinize it tickle, tickle and 2 was won by West, with his 16 of Clubs. Trick 3 was won by Declareer when he ruffed his 6 of Trumps on West's Queen of Clubs. Trick 4 and 5 was won by Declareer when he cashed his Ace and King of Trumps. After these five tricks, the trumps like this: Hand (B) North S 5-4 HA 4-5 D 7-4-2 C None E S None S J W a H J-10-7-4 H 9-5-3 e s D 10-8-5 D Q-9-6 s t c I C 9 t S 9-7 H K-Q-2 D A-K-J C None South Declareer having already lost two club tricks and sure of a loss of one trump trick. MUST NOT lose a Dia- mond trick if he wants to go game and win the Rubber. He realizes that if the Queen or Diamonds win the game Jack secure the desired results, but there is just as much chance that the Queen will lie in West's hand. And a chance is something Declarer cannot take; he wants to make game play real. Realizing that the cards as they now lay are his disadvantage, the Declarer MUST bring about a certain shift in the cards to change this disadvantage, the Declarer MUST hold the cards of trumps, and he knows that all he has to do is to put West in the lead will be to play trump, but he doesn't know what West will lead after he puts him in the lead. He knows that all cards out of West's hand, making it necessary for him to lead only a card that will win the Declarer his extra trick. You naturally ask, "Can Declarer do this." I reply, "he certainly can." After considering the hands, Declarer does that if he can change the holdings in each hand to the following, he can make his game. Hand (C) S 5-4 H None D 7-4 C None North E S None S J W a H J H None e s D 10-9-8 D Q-9-6 t s T 10 C 9 t South S 9-7 H None D A-K-J C None If he changes the holdings thusly, he has West in a position where he can only do one of three things, after he, the Declarer, puts him in with a trump lead, namely, (1) Lead a Diamond, who can then win with his Jack. (2) Lead a Club, which Declarer will ruff in Dummy and sluff his losing Jack of Diamonds. (3) Lead a Heart, if he has the thirteenth diamond, which will meet the fate, as the Club. It is all right to want the hands changed this way but, "Can Declarer do it?" you will ask, and I don't blame you for asking. Declarer can change as before: "He can." Now let us see. We will go back to trick five, which Declarer won with his King of trump. This trick showed him that West held the Jack of trump. All of his 6 Bibles in his 2 of Hearts, winning whit Dummy's Ace. To trick seven he now leads the 6 of Hearts from Dummy, winning with the King in Closed Hand. Trick seven also wins with Hearts. Now he has accomplished his purpose and has taken all the dynamite out of his adversaries. To trick nine he leads his 7 of Spades, which West takes out with his Jack. Declarer can either win with his Jack of Diamonds or ruff in Dummy and discard his Jack. This will make Declarer win all the remaining tricks and the game and Rubber, instead of the Rubber game and subsequently the Rubber. The Change Did you thoroughly understand how Declarer brought about this change? If not I will go over it and try to make the solution a little clearer. We must return to Hand (A) and vice versa, with a vantage shift. The first four tricks were ordinary Bridge and gave no indication of anything unusual occurring. Declarer lost two Club tricks and ruffed the third. Figuring that if the four adverse trumps were spilt with his Ace-King, thereby making the winning of ten tricks and game an assured thing. But at trick five he fails to pull the last adverse trump and realizes that only four Spade tricks are possible, which with three diamonds will fall one short of game. To make up this loss, he must gain a trick in another suit, and that suit only can be Diamonds. If Dummy were only short of Diamonds, he could trick "Jack in Dummy's hand," which that "II" was in the way. Dummy was not short. The next thing Declarer would want to do to gain this trick would be to Finesse his Jack of Diamonds, but again he is confronted by the chance that West holds the Queen and the East, and makes the pailion where he cannot take a chance but must make the winning of his loss card a certainty. The only way he can make game a certainty is to force certain cards from West's hand so he can only lead a Diamond, Club or Heart, when Declarer puts him in.

PETER PAN BRIDGE CLUB There are two kinds of new deals, namely, Compulsory and Optional. I will quote you the Code pertaining to them both. NEW DEAL **Law 15. I. There must be a new deal by the same dealer with the same pack:** (a) If the dealer and the proper players into four distinct packets of thirteen cards each. (b) If during the deal, any card be found on the dealer or exposed on above or below the table. (c) If before play begins, it be discovered that more than thirteen cards were played. (d) If during the hand, one player holds more than the proper number of cards and another player holds 2. There must be a correct deal by the same dealer with a correct pack if, during the hand, the pack be proved incorrect. The correct pack is not correct. The pack is not incorrect on account of a missing card if found in the still pack, among the tricks, below the deck. The pack is not correct on a sizable that such a card was part of the pack during the deal. Any player may search for it; if it be not found, there must be a pack by the same dealer with correct pack. NEW DEAL Law 16). During the deal, any player who would be a player in his player may demand a new deal: (a) If the wrong player deal! If the dealer omits the cut, or deal with the work. (b) If the pack be imperfect. (b) In the new deal is by the proper player, the cut, or deal with the same dealer with a perfect pack. If no legal demand for a new deal be made under this law before the end of the deal, the dealer must then the left deals next with the still pack. This will give the Peter Pan Bridge Club the information they desire and at the same time them the National Code on the new deal. I am glad that the Peter Pan Bridge Club will be able to play the Bridge Clubs outside of Baltimore that read these columns will write me, as I desire to make a personal survey of Bridge Clubs within Baltimore. Because of the length of this article and the lack of space, I am compelled to forego the start of the National Bridge Code this week, but will begin it next week. E. W. TALAFERRO the Bridge Club of Philadelphia Phone: Lafarge 3077 Patient Is Electrocuted in White Office DETROIT. — Mrs. Harry Roy didn't know that her husband was dead until an undertaker approached her with a request that she identify the body and pay $75 for handling it. Royal, aged 34, went for an electrical treatment to the office of Dr George Denis, white, on Trump, his wife, and was cared for when he was escaped from a wire current to a machine from which he was taking treatment. The white physician told the police that the constable of a prison had the pathetic look with another plate attached to his body so that the current would pass him. He said Royal absent-mindedly reached out and placed his hand on the wire leading to the machine. The Detroit Independent, a local weekly, is taking the lead in a fight against coroners' turning over the bodies of the dead and was attached to the coroner's office, itself, notifying the relatives of dead persons.

Cor-ordination, which only constant playing together can bring, was the outstanding factor in the it to 33 victory the Borsalian palace, which re-vapped over the recently re-vamped Athenian quint at the New Albert auditorium, Friday night. Local basketball fans and those who played here from adjacent cities and towns, sat and stood oomouthed as the visiting New Yorkers, forced at times to the top notch, flashed an amazing display and desicion to local unattarnished little as world's colored champions. But despite all the brilliance and polish of the Harlem professionals, the team with a more intensive training period will be a factor with which to be reckoned. No one expected Athenian Greeks would give the Rens the battle that they did. And while it may be true that the visitors did not at all times extend themselves to the limit, the players themselves, will attest that they had a busy evening. To the trained eye it seems possible that the Rens might have added a team to their total, to try and tell that who has heard them say that they beat most of their opponents by 10 points. Both Teams Rushed Both teams missed a number of set-ups, but close guarding by both outfits made it necessary that most of the game was more than a basketball game, for at times the duel between Eyre Saitch, the net and racket man, and Rapp Wheatley, the comeback man. The Stretch Cooper, and the tilt between Cutie Brown and Pappy Ricks occupied the foreground and worked to a frenzy the rabid crowd that jammed the net of the Pennsylvania avenue hall. Jenkins First to Score Fats Jenkins, conceded by many to be the fastest floor man alive, opened the hostilities near the Rens and near the sidelines. The fleet Fats soon followed this up with a slap-in-shot that called for a wild aviation. A goal stretched across the court and the ball and raise up to place it in the basket, was followed by one by Henderson. Wheatley and Chink Wyatt began to get the range of shots he needed, 11-9 with the Rens on the long end. The Rens were playing a strictly JOHNSON STARS WIN ATLANTIC CITY.

BALTIMORE, "Dead-Eye" Ricks PAPPY RICKS said by many sports fans and writers to be the surest shot in basketball, did not live up to his record average o.14.5 points per game as the Renaissance Athletes here. Friday might, Close guarding by Cutie Brown held Ricks to only three field goals. man-to-man defense while the Greeks were alternating with that with a zone defense, which failed to click on a number of occurrences were stealing late and time after time they either sped past the spot where the ball was passed, or were too late in getting there. Saitch, Jenkins and Cooper swelled the total for the Rens while Cutie Brown and Sheffey added points for the locals, but baskets were more frequent the situation, and they led at half time, 24 to 18. Wyatt Steals Show A bad pass by Saltch at the opening of the second stanza, found Clerk Wyatt alert and the little forward dribbled down the floor to score a basket unmolested. A field goal by Wheatley and a charity toss by Wyatt, brought the locals to within one point of the Rens and the yells of the crowd became deafening. Mayers sent in for Yancey, sank a bucket without touching the rim, to increase the Renaissance lead to three points. But this lead was short-lived, as goals by Henderson and Wyatt, put the Greeks ahead, 27-28, but Pappy Ricks sent the Rens back in front by an almost foot line, just after Cutie Brown had sent the ball spinning around the edge of the rim only to drop off on the outside. Score Tied There were eleven and one-half minutes to play as Cutie Brown swished an over-handed double-break from the game, who was retired from the game with four personal fouls and immediately after Jenkins tossed in a free throw to knot the count at 29-all. Cutie Brown missed a chance to put the Greens ahead again when his try was scored, and again a quick shower of baskets by Satch, Cooper and Ricks, put the Rens in the lead never to be headed, and the New Yorkers, playing a 'freezing game, held the locals to a score of eight, and scored an even dozen more. The sterling floor work of Henderson, Brown, and Wheatley cut off many Renaissance scores, and Pappy Ricks was held to three baskets while Clink Wyatt chalked up four and two free Jenkins High Won Fats Jenkins, with 13 points, led the scorers, while Cooper, with eleven points, Jimmy Thomas, substituting for Sheffey and Wheatley, respectively, played hard on the defensive but were unable to score any points to the play of the Athletes. Aces Lose Prelim. The Regular Fellows were given a big scare by the Palace Aces in the preliminary game, but managed to eke out a 19 to 18 victory over the Hoyleman.

Champions Keep Record Clean by Trimming Deacons, 22-17. BALTIMORE BOY STARS Rally, in Closing Moments Cinches Game. HAMPTON INST. Va.-Kings by conquest, but ethroned by official C.I.A. impeachment, the Virginia Seminary Deacons invaded the stronghold of the 1929 titleholders and lost, 22-17 Saturday. The recast Seminary quint, sans all of last year's stars, almost held the deacons by the end. Hughes rung up a basket to make the score 17-19 in favor of Hampton. Had Fate preferred to tip the balance the other way it is probable that a tie would have resulted. But a foul goal by a brilliant field shed by Alexandra put the Tidewater lads well well. "Anybody's Game" It was anybody's game for the first five minutes as Cotton and White "shot it up" to four-all. But never again did Coach Thompson's boys catch up. Half-time found the score 7-11, five of the visitor's points having been garnered on four, while having to his credit also goal. Cotton already had three and Lanky and Slim Williams had one police. With nine minutes to play, the Deacons scored a point on a foul and Jones popped a wonderful shot from near the center of the floor. Cotton re-entered the game and subsequently the score slid up to 19:15. Alexander went in and it jumped two more notches. A last minute flash of brilliance, and the attempted bestest, became another ephemeral dream. Game Fast The game was fast in spots, Hampton furnishing the most of the speed. Seminary played a man to man game on the defensive and used a slow charging offense when in alien territory. Hampton played a slashing game featured by trick passing and fast dribbling. White, a Washingtonian, stood out for his all-round playing and French and Hughes deserve commendation. For Hampton, Hunt, Cotton, Clay, and Gates played exceptionally well. VA.

Statute Against Mixed Bouts Cited; Hint Ku Klux Klan Would Interfere. COMMISSION ACTS Sanction Refused for Bout February 10. MIAMI, Fla. — The proposed bout between Kiel Kocolate and Jose Martinez, scheduled to be held by Lou Magnolia at his Hai Ala Fronton Arena, here February 10, hit a snag Tuesday, when the local being commissioned by the Reynolds, chairman of the commission, informed Magnolia that the bout would not be permitted because it was a mixed one, and serted it with a black one, to be staged in the Jim Crow arena reserved for Negro fighters. The chairman further stated that he had received letters and telephone calls from residents; one of whom is quoted as saying that if the commission did not halt the fight "he knew an organization that would."

Darby Five Wins and Loses While on Road Spooks Bow to Rheims Post, 50-34, But Trip Coatesville, 45-30. ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Wild contusion reigned as Stretch. Saunders and his Rheims Post tossers put the Darby Phantoms back in the graveyard at Rheims Post Lodge here. New Year's night, by the scors of 50-34. A half time Saunders and his aggr agement were enjoying a 34-7 lead. The second half turned out to be a wild and woolly affair. Most of the intense rivalry had been cooked up over the opposing Philadelphia's best youthful amateur center, and Stretch Saunders, last year's moot man for Renaissance, world's colored basketball champions, although Oatman of Rheims Post, and Ash of the Dar- bury, last year's moot man for most of the scoring.

The Nation's Biggest All Negro Weekly Race Boxing Threats Given Run-around by White Pug Larry Johnson and Black Bill Latest to be Added to Which Includes Jack Johnson, Harry Wills and Al Brown—Fear Negro Champion. By FAIR PLAY The favorite pastime of "ducking" the Negro pugilist seems to be gaining the upper hand from time immemorial the race boxer has been forced to exist as best he could due to the refusal of white boxers to come out in the open and meet him. Everybody remembers how Jack Johnson was side-stepped; they waltzed away the Army Wilts and how they treated George Godfrey as if he were a ton of poison ivy. Kid Chocolate had to confine his efforts to the smaller clubs for a long time before the "big boys" would go outside of the country in order to earn a living in the ring. And now Larry Johnson and Black Billy would make the mats, and so wrought up has James W. Jennings of the New York Evening Graphic become, that he writes: "I believe the become of the fiveweight tournament? It was to have been decided last month." "The Boxing Commission, the Garden management, Commissioner Helen Morgan and the new Sanitation Commission have neglected the derined thing." I believe I know why. Two Negro girls remain and one of the colored boys, Black Bill, will win the title as easily as a furnace consumes coal in zero weather — loss a few loads of anthracite in. "Ruby (Dark Cloud) Bradley, the other Ethiopian, and Midget Wolgast are supposed to fight a semi-final affray, the winner to meet Bill for title. When Black, French champion, is daffy as a titering hanna everybody concerned lost all interest in the tourney. "Let a Negro win a title? How ridiculous? Black Negro Challenger "The players that control the sport will do everything possible to block the path of any Negro challenger, and the rulers of the racket are in Calvin Reed Rulled "Kayoed" by Referee as Fans Razz PHILADELPHIA — William (Gorilla) Jones, rated by some critics, the logical contention for the wager was that he worn by Jackie Fields, ascended another round of the pugilistic ladder here, New Year's Day, when he slashed out a decision over Billy Angelo, white, at the Arena. Jones rocked, socked, and in Angelo Angelo, and in the fifth round floored him for the count of eight. No one who saw the fight will doubt that the Akron, Ohio, battler had steam behind his blows, for he rained them on the local lad with unrelenting fury. In a vigorous slugget with Phil Zwick, white, forgot to duck a blow and as a result suffered a kauai ruling in the third round. Reed, the referee contended, was wrong. The fight fans disagreed with the ruling and razed the official loudly. 55 Cagers Report for Lincoln Quint Coach Bill Taylor Puts Charges Thru Strenuous Drill—Play Here Jan. 24 LINCOLN N UNIVERSITY.

CAGE TOURNEY The Nation's Biggest All Negro Weekly Suggest George Godfrey as Opponent for Big Italian Muldoon Believes Big Truck' of Leiperville Should Fight Carrera. CARNERA IS GIANT Carl Carter Turned Down by Commissioners. By FRANK BYRD NEW YORK. — The name of George Godfrey is among those suggested as a logical opponent for Prime Marnera, the Italian glove who landed on the field recently. His missionary William Muldon is the man who made the suggestion, and he backed it up by saying: "Godfrey should be Marnera's first opponent. Big men like him have huge fellowships that size isn't everything the boxing profession, and probably of the Italian's height is probably a handicap, and don't let anyone tell you different. It would be ridiculous to have Von Porat or Risko fight him." Carter Refused Jess Mahon sought permission to match Marnera with Carl Carter, veteran colored giant, at the Coliseum. January 14 was the boxing commission's due to sanction the permission because of Carl's reputation in business.

Whenever this happens, however, and the customers get wind of it, the box office sells out two or three days ahead of time. Carrera weights 287 pounds and stands six feet, and feels, feet, twenty-one collar and sixteen shoes. Godfrey was among those to greet him when he laughed. Chauffeuring in Africa BY GIISON MARTIN, In African World There is no known method of controlling the African driver. When he is alone in the car he will give lifts to all and surely to all pedestrians in the road, which pedestrians in the hull are glad to pay rather than complete their journey on foot. On one occasion, twelve sheep, two goats and their owner, a Haussman, whose gait is for many moons, were accommodated in a smart salon, while it is an everyday occurrence to see an open four-seater carrying six eight or more mannequins in a room, warres. The running board, wings and spare wheel bracket are used to convey chickens, plantains and bananas, bottles of kerosene, tins of all shapes and sizes, and native foals well filled with passengers' fares. If questioned about scratches, dirt and marks on body and wings, he assures "Massa," that these were made by his Sab, bad too much. If the African driver is sent on a journey with a spare tin of petrol, it is always used or sold, the driver who resides there has yet to be born. When he is questioned by the owner of the vehicle, he assists vehemently that the reserve tin has been emptied into a tank, when this was done, the driver's mate corroborating his statement. He will explain "Dis car, he chop petrol too much." Black Hair, Brown Skin, Red Cheeks, Blue Fingernails. A well-dressed woman was seen in a room with her nails colored a brilliant crimson.

WASHINGTON—A stirring rebuttal of attacks on the present athletic policy at Howard University, particularly as it applies to football, is given this week by E. P. Lovett, a law student of the 1932 class at the University. Mr. Lovett answers a number of questions raised by critics of the amateur policy of President Mordecai Johnson, and characterizes the statements that have appeared in the press regarding sports at Howard. Tendency Toward Amateurism Pointing out that the tendency in the major colleges of both races is to adopt a purely amateur athletic policy, and declaring that the colleges supported all forms of athletics, Mr. Lovett points out: "Football has never supported all forms of athletics. Financial support has always come directly from the athletic department, and this annual deficit in the athletic budget added to the general deficit, the University has carried over a deficit every year of several thousands of dollars. And every year the general deficit every year of the athletic program, has grown more acute and threatening. "If football has been such a paying proposition, as claimed by my opponents, why an increasing athletic cost ever affects the City Council of Liberal Arts, and Director of Board of Athletic Control, states that the University has never made profit from football games except on Thanksgiving Day. The present administration pledged to discount the games in order to do this it found it necessary to live and operate within its income, and to go just as far as the income would permit, then to stop. In carrying out this pledge, based on basic track events he discontinued during the 1924 season." That even a medico team is to be preferred to no team at all, as the players of the playing of the teams at Howard from 1927 to the past season has demonstrated the potentiality of the team, since all teams have their "off and on" seasons. No Enrollment Drop Mr. Lovett denies that enrollment at Howard has decreased as the result of the present football policy, which required 2,671 students at Howard as compared with 2,064 in 1924-25. Of President Johnson's policy, Mr. Lovett says: "This new policy has placed all forms of athletics on as much time as it inwardly encouraged and supported a professional system and outwardly merely an amateur system, especially in football. The change in the policy has led to lodging and has deprived a few of tuition and spending change for their entire football career. Such a policy was bad, corrupt in itself. Some players, not necessary to play, have been in super-abundance while others have become more or less dilatory because of accompanying aid could afford to remain in school just as long as they were lasted. Since incipitation of the new policy, the University has for the first time in years, been operating within its budget. Congress JANUARY 17, 1930 New Albert Auditorium AT 8:15 P. M.

ELLIS HIGH SCORER Deacons Lead Only Once During Game. RICHMOND, Va. — The Va. Union cagers won an overtime tilt from Ted Thompson's Va. Seminary tossup.

Uninterrupted time, and once in the second period, held a lead of 2:0 points but this was short lived when White and Brown tied for the basket for tallies.

No Enrollment Drop. has been so much pleased with the present administration and has so enthusiastically approved of its policy that it vowed the University just twice as much money ($1,250,000) this year as was requested by the Univer- sity. "I realize that coaches and players at institutions not strictly boarding are somewhat handicapped in creating a team environment, and players necessary to the development of esprit de corps when neither free room nor board is offered. The giveaway is a team, and you must keep the players together, intact, under the immediate control of the coach at all times, and makes possible the living of football and the development of such a policy far outweigh the benefits. Urges Club House "As a matter of suggestion, I believe that all the above mentioned benevolent and officers could be more or less a club house, a social center for athletics, where they could lounge, swear, play games, talk, act, and fight football, as part of the school's athletic club, irrespective of the present policy, there were not three eligible football players who refused to play this season because they could not play.

MORGAN CO JANUARY 17, 1930 PRELIMINARY—MORGAN CO FISK 1 The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, January 11, 1930 Hear Me Talkin' To Ya By BILL GIBSON: THERE will probably be loud huzzas and the smacking together of calloused mits as the news goes the rounds to the big cleat and molekulin men, meeting in the gymnasium and playing in the football rules for next season. The football doctors had become so accustomed to operating on the rules that the news of their decision to let them stand, comes as nothing short of a miniature shock. But don't get the idea that no changes were suggested. You see were two groups of officials and the coaches—New York City, men for both. Three recommendations were made by the rules committee of the body of coaches, but all were voted down. The first, that the point after touchdown be abolished, drew forth some heated discussion. The committee, headed by Glenn Thistlewaite of the University of Pennsylvania, was noting that in 1487 men played in 1928 in which 5,100 touchdowns were scored, only 24 per cent were decided by the extra point. This was avened as a reason for abolishing the extra point and in addition is argued that the extra point was largely a one-man affair with the other points in the game. But regardless of the reason, the extra point was retained. A second change recommended was that the fouls be classified so that a 15-yard penalty against one team could not be nullified by a 5-yard penalty on the other team when occurring on the same play. Proponents of the change maintained that the smaller should be deducted from the larger one and the result rememberably be borne. But even this failed to find enough supporters and died a-boring. Change three would move the ball in 15 yards from within five yards of the side lines on option of the offensive team with the loss of a down. This change, which might have carried a few years ago, was also deemed to be a mistake. The grand old game of football had been dealt enough hard shocks in recent years and was due a temporary rest from tampering. Football officials in their meeting, much to the surprise of many, made no attempt to change the jumble rule of 1929, nor did they attempt to change the cross-bar of the goal to its former place above the goal line. Yet, however, propose some manner of ruling that would penalize the punting side touching down a kicked ball, five yards for what is now a foul without a penalty. This condition, some officials pointed out, makes it possible for such offenses as clipping and holding committed by the defending or receiving side to automatically cancelled by the commission of a foul by the attacking or kicked ball. The Recodification Committee, headed by E. K. Hall of Dartmouth and Walter Okeson, carr of Eastern intercollegiate football, reported that progress had been made in re-codifying the rules to eliminate clumsy and confusing wording, but that the task had been yet completed. No action will be taken, then, until the recodification An interesting feature of the coaches' meeting was the report from the examinations held for ambitious young men who want to become football officials. There were many failures, but the coach would need to develop a system to be set up to apply to race officials. The time should not be far off when this thing will become a reality, for it certainly is conducive to a better-trained and higher type of official. We recommend, then, that our groups of officials give this matter some needed attention. Mr. Hall, reviewing the rule changes that went into effect during the past season, reported: "The two principal criticisms of the fumble rule were that it would tend to promote fumbling and that it would be the first of these is absurd if intended to mean that the rule would tend to promote careless handling of the ball. The loss of the possession of the ball is in itself a serious enough penalty to prevent carelessness. Possession of the ball often means the difference between victory and almost always means as much as the loss of 55 words of distance. "As to the criticism that the rule deprives the spectator of one of the great thrills in the game, it might be appropriate to again restate the fact that the Rules Commission always advises us to ask the question, "What is the purpose of wholesome sport for the hundreds of thousands of boys who play it rather than to provide thrills for the tens of millions of those who watch them play. There are plenty of other reason that the spectator must watch this game of footbathing are infinitely more worthwhile than an occasional fleeting thrill from a fluke play." —G LONG this same line, but expressed in more vigorous language is the impassioned plea of Frank Parker Day, white, president of the College, and the head of the athletic department. President Day has recommended first, that colleges do away with gate receipts; second, that they give up professional coaching, scouting, subsidizing, et cetera, and come back to amateur coaching; third, that leagues be formed among colleges that are interested in athletic coaches; fourth, that whatever knowledge we have given to players; fifth, that all athletic dealings be above board and that every student in college be given a change to participate in athletics. He played the payment game in the College athletic coaches and urged them to clean up athletics is practicable. President Day was speaking before the National College Athletic Association, and his listeners were coaches, college professors and alumni representatives, and he did not bite his tongue as he spoke. President Day appointed a sub-committee to further study the now famous "Bulletin 23" of the Carnegie Foundation and had recommended that, for the present, each college cure its own ill, did not stir the members to any frenzy in action upon it. Instead, his remarks died out almost as soon as When one considers that Harvard University made a profit of $217,171 from all sports last year, taking in $1,070,617 of which $618,892 was contributed by football, and that football alone, paid the University of Pennsylvania a net profit of $463,800, the most seasoned man to know that the plea for "free" athletics is falling on deaf auditory organs. Imagine, if you please, what would happen to a Negro school if the gate receipts for athletics were abolished. Most of our schools have a hard enough time now trying to make expenses. Certainly none of them would want to shoulder any of the expenses, all of them would want to maintain sports would have to come from somewhere and it is certain that the students would balk on paying more. Say what you will, athletics must be paid for, and as long as the public is satisfied in paying to see athletic games, schools are going to continue to let the fans share in the expense. That is the only natural way. Which brings to mind that it shouldn't be such a long time before some word is released about a meeting of the National Physical Education Association. It is understood that the first week-end in March has tentatively been agreed upon. So between now and then the members might be giving some scandal in these major problems as they apply to our race schools and colleges. G NLESS the spies of this dept, have slipped up in their sleuthing, baseball in the eastern region is in for one of its biggest shakeups. Meetings have been called and no moguls have shown up and moguls have clamored for meetings at other times, and none have been called. 'Tis It is rather doubtful if the Bacharach Giants will continue as a team this year. Your correspondent pointed out many collygms ago that the Shore City doesn't mean the diamond pastime any good. Ike Washington has sunk gobs of money at the old race track there, and it is not very likely that he is willing to take another pounding. Whether or not Cum Posey or another crowd will want to play in the field is problematic. The fiery Posey is not a man who like to take dictation from others, and in a league you have to do this some times. The Pittsburgh mopul was far from pleased with the results of last season, and to see him take his team and go barnstorming through the hick towns of Pennsylvania and Ohio would not surprise this man. The Hildale camp out Darry way no doubt has some plans up his sleeve for 1930. Dissension among the club members is have caused the genial Edward some sleepless nights and caused him to buy hair dye in wholesale lots. Yet, my splice inform, Ed is so filled with the spirit of baseball that he would be willing to take a filing at it even if his best friends deserted him. Oceans Cheapease litoral, Norfolk, to be exact, comes a faint cry for membership in an eastern baseball league. And from Richmond and Washington ring out the voices of promoters who would be tickled stiff to be accepted as league members. Some whispers that Harrison, Pa., would join the ranks again, and there are other rumors. We always are late getting together, but this Remington matter belows a warning not to wait to late this year. Times have changed.

By BILL GIBSON The death of Abraham L. Herford, 63, white, at his home on Wallis avenue, here Sunday, brought forth reminiscences from that group of race sportsmen who knew him best as the manager of the late Joe Gans, lightweight boxing champion of the world. Herford, who had been ill for more than a year, had been for the past seven months under the care of a physician at his home. Since the death of his brother Maurice, and Joe Gans, close friends say the former promoter was never the same Called Gaps' Best Friend "Mr. Herford," an old-timer related, "was the best friend that Joe Gans ever had, and he loved him more than eat in the downtown hotels or restaurants, he would come around to Joe's house and ask if he might eat there. He was plain and ordinary as they come. Not to Blame for Joe's Death "Some critics have sought to blame the late promoter for Gans but that it is not true, the informant continued. "If the attempts of Gans at forced weight making were directly responsible for the blame to be blamed as much as Herford. "It is possible that Herford did 'spell' by catering to almost any Gans he might have. Gans and money he wanted from his 'boss' and he took advantage of the situation. Of course, he eventually nailed it back, but his reliance upon Herford was financially as he could have. Herford saved, while Gans spent. Gans Spent Heavily "I have seen Joe Gans pay as high as a dollar for a cigar, take a few puffs on it and throw it away, while I have seen Herford buy a ten-center and smoke all of it. Gans was characteristically a spendthrift, and all harm that he did was to himself." The late promoter, who is survived by his wife, Olive, and a sister, Mrs. Rav Katz, married 19 years ago and left no children. Consequently, many memorials that he kept from the conquests of Gans, have been given away. It is understood that Babv Joe Gans, the Los Angeles fighter, has been the recipient of some of these memorials. Mr. Gans's choice of the "Old Master's" name as a ring title. Seek to Acquire Trophies Several of these trophies still remain, however, and an attempt has been made to safekeeping of some local organization that they may be preserved for future generations to see. In 1900, Word, Gans climbed from his position as a fish cleaner at the Broadway Market to one of the highest pinnacles in fictional realms. That success was constantly promoted to a promoter's mind, even until death. "He was a good scout," remarked a man now aged, who knew him as a boy. "He did the best he could as he saw it."

KANSAS CITY TEAM TO PLAY NITE BASEBALL Innovation to be Tried in Providing Games for Late-Working Fans KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Night baseball games will be played in the smaller towns of Missouri and Kansas, beginning with the 1930 season, according to an announcement made by Wikisonkamp, owner of the Kansas City Monarchs. The greatest difficulty will be experienced with high-fly balls which cannot be seen very well after reaching the pitch. Thus, that as the game will be played under slightly changed rules which will take care of this feature by limiting the lighting system will be transported on two special built trucks and will be set up at angles from two sections of the playing field, well out of the range of the activities of the Explaining the reason for adopting this method Mr. Wilkinson said: "In traveling with baseball baseballs about the number of years, I found that hundreds of people who wanted to see baseball games could not on account of working conditions which did not allow them to play. I thought it would be worth some remedy for this and in working out the night baseball problem I figured that it would allow these ardent baseball fans who have herefore been denied the proof of a witness sport a sport to do so at a time that their work would permit." Cheyney's Grid Team Was Best in History Team Won 75 Per Cent of Games Played and Scored 132 Points. By GEORGE W. BLOUNT CHEYNE'7, Pa—During the past season the Cheyney "Wolves" left a trail of destruction behind that marks the most successful gridiron season in its history. In looking over many of the squads in the East in class with Cheyney, it is not saying too much to say that in number of players, speed, strength and ability the Cheyney squad at the opening of the season appeared far below the average. Out of this small group of 38 young men came a team of destiny, the Cheyney team. Williamson's skill and the breaks of the game. In its class it was the sensation of the East and capable of holding its own in any fast company.

N 2 Senate Ave. Berkshire, ind Many Students Here. Clementine's Excuse. D.D. Club Meets. --- Levy, who is the president, always succeeds in being heard above everyone else, and because of her office, you just have to give way to her. But during Christmas week, she was visiting some where else when Flosse Wright entertained the club at her home, 2367 McCulloh street, and a number of extra guests. However, by the time Flosse got through assuring her friends she meant this or that, or she intended to do this or the other or becoming hysterical at the least of amusing things Camille's absence was not felt as much, for Flosse was up to the time in the way of entertaining. The club members are harmless nevertheless, and a jolly bunch to be with. They played cards, danced sang and old jokes—a huge and Foley club—both hostess. Her menu was so pretty gotten together and so much enjoyed and the twenty or more guests departed at the same time as the assurance of their hostess that she would have them back again soon. Ruth's Mother Here. Ruth DeMond's mother was here during the holidays, Pansy, and she had a lovely party in her honor. Mae's Bridge Luncheon The best and most unique affair of the holiday season, Pansy, was the bridge luncheon that Mae Campbell gave on Monday afternoon, honoring Julia Goines, of Atlantic City, at her home, 2441 McCullah street. Her other guests included Ebdna Gahm and Hermione Wharton, Gladys Derry, Matty Connion, Henrietta Smith, Adah Jenkins, Helen Prettyman, Constance Wharton and Sarah Fernandis. And such a pretty party she did have. The Christmas atmosphere was all around you, so unique were her decorations, bridge tailles and prizes—in keeping with the Yuletide spirit. The ladies wore their pretty Christmas frocks which blended so well with the lighting effects of the room. Constantia Wharton, who is everybody's score keeper, was the delight of the evening; her charming personality and ever ready wit, makes it a pleasure to be where she is. Julia Goines was a delightful guest and full of mirth and fun. Mae proved an adorable hostess Her luncheon was as delightful as it looked, and the manner in which it was served. For keeping tab on the winners in bridge, Constantia was presented a lovely Stiff silver paper cutter. The other pretty prizes went to Sarah Fernandis, for first prize: Lillian Parrot, for second prize, and Hermione Wharton, for third prize. The guest of honor prize was given, of course, to Miss Goines. Hostesses Give Party. Who could you find more charming as hostesses than Bertha Proctor Rowena Curtis and Mary Avery, the beautiful friends at a beautifully arranged card party at Bertha's pretty new home, 714 Carrollton avenue, on Monday evening. They had tables of whist, five hundred and bridge and you were seated according to your wishes, giving everybody an easy mind and a willingness to work for prizes, without being able to enjoy anyone alone a bad break occur. The guests were a congenial, jolly bunch which added much to the pleasure of the evening, the hostesses joyfully wooing well in entertaining the folks and making the evening while.

She is so tasty and has things right up to the neck of Thursday evening, honoring her club, the Sagas and a large number of extra guests was just as you expected. Pansy Delightful and beautifully gotten up and so much enjoyed. Bridge of the evening's plains and the necessity for a good table of bridge was placed on the tables.

That business conditions are improving and that 1930 will be a busy year in Baltimore was indicated by a survey made by AFRO-AMERICAN reporters recently. While in many cases no definite figures were available because the year's accounts have not been closed, the general reply was that business was greater in 1939 than during 1928. Several institutions are contemplating the addition of more equipment and improvements during the coming year for the purpose of rendering better service. They have predicted 1930 to be a boner year are: Laundry Service W. T. Laundry. Dual Laundry. 'Our business increased 10 per cent in the past year. A greater increase is expected next year.

Indications are that my business during 1930 will exceed former years. In Flustered, law and real estate "I feel optimistic that conditions are certain to be improved in 1930. More institutions are taking out leases, and more projects are being completed last year." Mrs. Marie Thomas, Green Lantern Cake: The longer I am established the longer the business. IBM showed a slight increase over 1929. It was encouraged to me to note that the regular substantial navalronge built in 1929 exceeded that of 1928.

WASHINGTON. D. C. — While United States trade with Latin American countries showed a substantial increase in 1829 over 1822 according to a survey made public Monday by the Commerce Department, there was a decrease in trade. Both exports and imports to Haiti showed a decline owing to unfavorable economic conditions, according to George Washington, the section of the Division of Regional Information. SAN DOMINGO With respect to the Dominican Republic, the Department's summary showed, exports and imports continued the steady downward trend since 1997, owing to low sugar production crops of cocoa and other stables. WEST INDIES In the British West Indies both exports and imports showed a decided increase, reacting from the low level of 1928 in incidence to favourable general conditions. Anne Company: "Our business for 1928 has shown an increase, both in production and premium income as compared with 1928. This result has been contained in face of the fact that business is better" better. While December is considered the poorest month in the year for insurance, the month just closed has been the best during the year. We feel that the increase in 1930 will show a still greater increase. Dentist's Work Increases Dr. James A. White, dentist: "People are realizing more and more that the teeth are either a liability or a asset. Dentists are just as important as those of the physician. Hereforem many had central work done for the common effect alone. They are now more focused on dental basics, because they know that good teeth are essential to health. Then too, dentistry, which used to be locked upon as a trade with professional ideals, is today being looked upon as a profession, with less trade ideals. Best Year for B. C. Mutual W. E. Coleman, North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company: "As far as the Baltimore District is concerned, 1929 was its cost year, both in production and income.

G. — During the past decade, the eyes of the Nation have ben focused upon the State of North Carolina. The reason is that the state has the most progressive Negroes live in the bounds of the "Tar Heel" State. More than a score of years ago the tobacco industry in Carolina became a conclusion that more conducive to good citizenship to build Negro hospitals and schools rather than to build jails and appropriate sums of money for insane asylums. Hence, their program has been equipped to care for sick and deceptive Negroes began and a systematic study of an educational program which lessened illiteracy was cared for. As a result of the effective work of white men like the late R. J. Reynolds of Winston-Salem, the late Washington Duke of Durham, whose sons the late B. N. and J. B. Duke bequeathed large sums of money for the Negro community, this state occupy a unique position of any group of Negroes in America. Talk with any white man in North Carolina, it matters not whether it is the President of Duke University or one of the lower strata, and you will be told of the progress of the Negro, and of North Carolina's Colored Wall Street in Durham. You do have to get this information before you can you in the most sparsely settled village in the state by white people.

IN THE CONDITION OF BUSINESS DECEMBER 11, 1922. The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, January 11, 1930 A The company stands as the Rock of Gibraltar of our group with thirty-five millions of dollars worth of insurance in force; with total assets of three and a half million dollars. When one walks up Market Street he sees the Duke Hotel,ington Duke Hotel, a million dollar structure for whites. He glances a half block down Parrish street and there he sees the North Carolina Mutual Building, a six-story structure, normally equipped with elevator service. On the first floor is Mechanics and Farmers Bank, organized twenty-one years ago, with a capital of one hundred and thirteen thousand dollars, and a floor flora where the executives of the company welcome you. A young lady guide is called and you are shown the Race's greatest institution. An X-ray room meets your eyes and the office is next. You are ushered to the offices of C. C. Spaulding, John Avery, Edward Merrick Kennedy and other officials where a cordial welcome and southern hospitalization accompany company employs sixty people and eight officials which comprises the executive staff. No one can go through that spacious building owned by the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company, a progress which is being made by members of our race. Durham's Modern Hospital One of the vital needs of a Dixie community is a hospital. Winston-Salem, Greensboro, Durham and other towns too numerous to mention fills that need. But there is no colony in Washington as modernly equipped as Lincoln Hospital in Durham, according to information given the writer by Mr. Avery of the North Carolina Mutual Lincoln Hospital. The hospital was build at a cost of a hundred and fifty thousand dollars by the late Washington Dukes in 1829. The hospital was appropriated in 1829 for maintenance by the B. N. and J. B. Duke estate. Nineteen thousand dollars known to modern science is used in a great institution to save human life. Entire Colored Staff The entire colored staff is under Dr. C. H. Shepard whose reputation is well known for home and training course add prominence to this great institution and proves conclusively that Nnerores are as well as prescribing medicine. Information given the writer is that Dr. Dr. Shepard, chief of the staff, is recognized by his contemporaries of the best surplus in the state. Bankers Fire Insurance Company The Bankers Fire Insurance Coin- company, operated by the local group, dependable as any company in North is classed as conservative, sound, and Carolina. A. and T. College A. and T. College is at Greenboro N.C. A bird's eye view of this wonderful institution is concrete proof of the progress of education among boys our group, North Carolina, and girls from as far east as Boston, Mass. have chosen the kind of training given at A. and T. as a safety to success. Berry O'Kelly and Smith are doing wonderful work in preparing young men and women for life's work. Berry O'Kelly on Method N.C. Most Negroes know of the late Isaac T. Montgomery of Mound Bayou in North Carolina. Negroes know of Berry O'Kelly in the race's outstanding figures. We met years ago at a Farmer's Conference at Tuskegee Institute. It was my good fortune to meet the Manager of the office. He has the honor of building and owning Method. N.C. He, with Victor Tulane, of Montgomery, is one of two Negroes on Tuskegee's Board of Trustees. He has written of him: "He is a friend upon whom I can depend." The Biltmore Hotel and Cafeteria One of the criticisms hurled at the hotel is that it does not operate up-to-date hotels, but in the Biltmore Hotel and Cafeteria. Durham has the most modern hotel in America. The same hot and cold, snowy weather is given in the Washington Duke Hotel, is given in the Biltmore. Other institutions fostered at Durham include the University, men include a bonding company, the Royal Knights of King David headed by W. G. Pearson. A building and loan association and plans for a mortgage company are being work- Confidence The success of the North Carolina Mutual is founded in the confidence reposed by the public in it. It has a strong organizational base, A. M. Moore and now Mr. Spaulding, president since 1923. It is not a one-man concern to foster the organization one executive. The vice-president, Mr. Avery, long one of the bulkers of the company and vice-president since 1920. But in addition, there are many other executives in "Ed. Merrick, treasurer, and second generation of Spaulding in Ed. G. Spaulding, claims adjuster, young but no less executive." Dr. Clyde, Donnel, medical director; R. L. McDoualad. 2nd.vice-president: William J. Kennedy, Jr. manager; M. A. Goins, assistant manager; A. J. Clement, assistant manager; D. W. Dale, vice director; and G. W. Cox, W. D. Hill, directors of agents. The presence of these men in a single organization strong enough like Tennyson's book to go on forever. Colored Workers To Assemble in London Organizations are Requested to Send Fraternal Delegates Organizations of race workers, trade unions, factory and shop groups and organizations of all nationalities are invited to send fraternal delegates to an International Conference of Negro Tollers which will meet in New York. The aim of the International Conference of Tolling Negroes is to create an international fighting organization for a united and organized struggles against imperialistic oppression. The rising wave of rebelism against the United States without the world, so sharply manifested in the militant action of the Haitians and Africans, will occupy the closest attention of the conference. It will discuss all the vital problems of the Haitian people and to convey to every shade of masked slavery by capitalists in Africa, the West Indies, South and North America. The conference will also draw up measures for concerted action and will set up firm connections between the various organizations.
