Best Complained Congressman Oscar DePriest among others complained to the commission of Henderson's use of the word "nigger." Saunders who has no radio station, took a full page in the Commercial Appeal, Friday, to reply to Henderson's taunt.

Negroes More Decent "I say the Negroes, by a thousand times, were more decent than you when they refused to stand at your side, and I saw the face of the nation that you wanted vilified. "They showed decency in their refusal to come into your radio studio and hobbin with you and snarl into the listening ears of white women in the city, and you saw the lies you have been bellowing out like a drunken braggart into the homes of decent people. "Did you think you could inflame the passions of the Negro race for your money-grabbing schemes? "Imported" a Negro "Your own Shreveport Negroes would not do what you got an imported Negro to do. You were the Negro race with not having the 'guts' to come and stand beside you at the microphone and spew vile slander in to the recent homes of the country, but I don't like anything about you, but I took on myself the job of exposing your hypocrisy and money-grabbing schemes strictly for the reason that I don't think an old rat like you outwitted me. "Yes. I know your record, you old slobber mouth! "You are riding for a fall, for you are a cheat and an imposter. "President Hoover you attacked this week—a shameful exhibition of coarseness in your language, when you said he was a cheat, and that he wore pants and drawers like any other man. "You told the Federal Radio Commission that you would use the word 'hell' as much as you wanted to. You declared, you were going to fight until hell freezes over and that you will thaw out freezes over and continue to fight." Money Misused According to: Saunders, Henderson is collecting money to fight chain stores when in reality he is using the money collected for the Henderson district, which is now the hands of the receiver because it is in $65,000 debt.

Perhaps not. But a court order issued by Superior Judge Gentzel last-week declared Banks to be mentally incompetent and appointed Joseph M. Lillie, white. Issued by Superior of Chicago, an alleged "friend" of the family, as next friend of the aged planter. And this was a step in his increment of the marriage which is to follow. Lillie's be- Jimmy low.

The romance started in the Banks's home in Atlanta where Mrs. Banks was a servant 40 years ago.

Banks to Fight Hard Banks's announcement that he will fight to a finish to keep his of his property and bring him to whom he pleases. And that Lille has won the first scrimmage and new trials and appeals are yet to follow. "My wife," said Banks, "is the only one that loves me and has been faithful to me. The others are my money and relatives for me they can get it. If Lille wins out finally, Mrs. Banks will make a fight for one-third share of the property to which she is entitled under the law of Illinois as his wife. That is provided the money-mad relatives are unsuccessful in having the marriage. First Suit a Year Ago Banks's white relatives began giving his wife trouble a year ago when through a court of appeal the servator was found to handle his Banks has nothing but contempt for her white relatives. She recalls a moonlight night 43 years ago when Banks came from Atlanta, Ga. His home, to Griffin, Ga., after her and the team talked it over in a tryst arranged on the campus of the Boys College Mrs. Banks declares that all of Banks's white relatives knew the position she held in regard to him, acknowledged it and submitted it, until two years ago when they decided to come north and affect a legal union. Married Two Years Ago They were married in July 1927, in Chicago. With their marriage whatever they had of succeeding relatives went agimmering and the court action which resulted in the appointment of a conservator was their first step in a battle to get control of the Banks estate. They were 99 years old and was graduated from Yale University on the sam. day his wife was born in Griffin. Ga., 59 years ago. Most of his father's wealth made out of the Civil War, was bequeathed to him and he added that until his holdings were reported to be in excess of $1,000,000. More than one-half of his estate is said to have been given to his wife. His personal fortune at the present time is thought to amount to about $350,000 and consists of property Chicago, Coca-Cola, Fl. The Continental Illinois Bank, the largest in Chicago, was appointed as conservator of the estate. The reason assigned for the court in making this decision is that Banks is physically capable of take-care of his surreptitious in the south and his wife, a colored woman, would encounter too many obstacles if she sought to go south to manage his affairs.

HAITIANS MERELY "NIGGERS" TO THE U.S. OCCUPATION Natives, Long Insulted, Declined Russell's Social Advances WORK ENDED U. S. Commissioners are Now En Route Home NEW YORK CITY. — Inability of the American occupation to regard the Haitians in any other way except as "niggers" is responsible for the recent outbreaks on the island. Helena Hill Weed, white, writing in the March 19 issue of of the Nation declares this to be the great issue which pervades every phase of American intervention. We are privileges, we know it in the United States, is the racial attitude of every Amrican official in every department of the Haitian occupation. Musn't Talk to Haitians She says: "For an American to be seen speaking on friendly terms to a Haitian unless in a strictly business or official capacity, is to invite ostracism and insult on the loyalty to the treaty, those who under the terms of the treaty, are here to assist the Haitians. "Thus while French, German, English and Canadian residents maintain social relations with Haitians of French and Caribbean origin, Americanists, from the highest official to the toughest leatherneck treat all Haitians with the utmost contumely and ridicule. An incident which occurred in connection with the arrival of the U.S. commissioners recently is especially amusing and significant. Haitians Refuse Russell's Invitation "General Russell, in an effort to save his face, invited the elite of Haiti to his residence to meet the president Russell, the press carried the replies to his invitation of several distinguished Haitians. Three of them were as follows "I am a part of that national community which has the mentality of a child of seven years," and asked for which you and yours are the responsible agents. As a Haitian, my place is not in your salon, and the invitation which I have received a mystification. I refuse 1." (Signed) FRANCOIS MATHON Refusal Is Not an Error "I should like to believe that it is by error that your invitation was addressed to Mme Léonard, I ask you not to attribute to a similar cause my refusal to take part." (Signed) LUCIAN LAFONTANT. "The 'nigger' Jacques Rounain does not condescend to associate with whites." (Signed) JACQUES ROUMAIN. Racial Suppression In line with the policy of racial suppression in the Haitian, Mrs Weed declares: "The civil branches of the Occupation have been practically filled by Americans who tolerated lowest grades. "There seems to have been not the slightest effort to use capable and trained Haitians in the middle or upper grades. One is reminded of Caraway, made years ago in Congress, that if Americans were authorized to serve here at double pay at the expense of the Haitian government, the time would never come when any Haitian would be found 'capable of Striplings Overpaid "The country is teeming with mercy young striplings, 'technical experts,' who are receiving double training, and the country would ever bring them at home, white the real work is being done by underpaid Haitians. "There is the established fact that an official had an apartment made for storage quarters in the Haitian government building, at the expense of Haiti, and is owed a rent, and is owed a rent, and is owed a rent, violation of the laws we, ourselves, have made for Haiti. It is said that there are many such cases, and they are all known to the authorities, some of whom have done more in the few days they have been here than could be expressed in words. They have won the hearts and the minds of the people hears it said. If Commissioner White could only be sent here to replace General Russell and guide work, we would be patient and hopeful, for he would be able to do that and that he has the true spirit of honest cooperation in our national interests." Mrs. Weed also details how 3,000 Haitians in a peaceful gathering at the capital the night before the attack were set up by the Haitian guard led by marine officers, who without even given an order to disperse or clear streets, were able to attack the men and women alike with their cocomacue sticks, inflicting deep cuts and terrible bruises. About forty Haitians are known to have been killed and no one knows how many more fled to their homes for treatment there. Commissioners Leave The United States commissioners having finished their work sailed for the board the steamship Rochester March 16. They arrive in Miami, Fla. Thursday and in Washington, Friday. They worked out their reports for President Hoover which included a number of recommendations which are believed to be as follows: The military warriors are to be withdrawn by 1938. A military mission consisting of four or five officers familiar with Haflian conditions will be left behind for a few years. The mission will be replaced as military high commissioner by a civil minister who will have power to negotiate a new treaty. The financial advisor will be retained until 1952 when the loan contract expires and the armies are withdrawn. Mission Expected There will be drastic changes in the service technique, the widely unsatisfactory vocational training headed by American experts. The Moton Commission is expected to deal with this phase of the matter. The final recommendation of the The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, March 22, 1930 "Red Shirt" Simmons of N.C., Author of "White Supremacy" Slogan and "Grandfather Clause," Deserted by own Party WASHINGTON. — "Red Shirt" Senator F. McLendel Simmons, for 30 years boss of the Democratic party in North Carolina, and for 29 years a representative of his state in the United States Senate, faces defeat at last. Among colored people of this state, Simmons is infamous because he paved the way in 1898 for the nullification of the 14th and 15th Amendments which enabled Democrats to drive colored Republications out of the state and local offices. Now it 76, the oldest member in the Senate from the point of continuous service and a victor of many battles, he, himself, will likely be forced out of office because he bolted his party and led a coalition of Democrats and ill-white Republicans to carry the state for Hoover in 1928. White Supremacy and Grandfather NO ORGANIZATION SIMMONS HOPES TO BEAT DEPRIEST Congressional Primary Fight Holds Stage in Chicago ROBERTS RUNS Contest for State Senate, George Unopposed When Simmons first coloned the slogan of "white supremacy" and fathered the "Grandfather clause" as a means of disfranchising Negroes in North Carolina, there were 70,000 colored people in that state voting regularly. Simmons was riled because he was defended for the House of Representatives by Harry P. Cheatham, one of the dark-colored men to serve in Congress before the election of Oscar DePriest. Simmons was also a Negro hater because he claims that his father had been murdered by a colored man. Simmons fathered the "red shirt" era in which rallies and parades were held throughout the country, jobs of black men in red shirts determined to keep Negroes from the polls. The first step was to write into the North Carolina constitution the grandfather clause under which those persons whose grandfathers had voted prior to 1861 was permitted to The grandfather clause was effective eight years, after which a literacy test took its place and remains today. The test was designed to violate of the "red shirts" drove the colored man out of politics and leaders like John R. Hawkins, who was stated to succeed Cheatham, left the state for other sections of the country. Simmons not only drove the Negro out of politics but kept him out. Despite the fact that other Southern states had delegates on the Republican delegations to the national convention, no colored men appear on such delegations from North Carolina. Instead, the 70,000 who voted 30 years ago, the number of colored voters in North Carolina is merely a few hundred today: Senate Hears Essay on Perry Howard From an Address by Senator Smith Brookhart (Rep, Iowa) in U.S. Senate March 2. I wish to say a few words about the "red" propaganda that is springing up among the unemployment situation. I wish to give the Senate a specific instance as to how that propaganda is manufactured. A subcommittee of the Committee on Post Offices and Post Banks of the State has been investigating patronage in the Southern States. Down in Mississippi there was a man named Perry Howard, a colored man, who was national committeeman of Republican party; he was the officer who dispensed the patronage of that state. Before anybody could get an appointment to office he had to have the O.K. of Perry Howard. The subcommittee found that he had deposited some $31,000 over and above his salary; he was an assistant attorney general of the United States also, at a salary of $10,000 in 18 months he deposited some $31,000. Then his clerk deposited some $14,000 more, nearly all of that $14,000 being in bills. That looked bad, especially as it came about the time appointments were being made for United States marshals and for post offices. Then his colored brethren in the Pullman labor organization of the United States gave up the Pullman Company. They attempted to get better wages. We found that included in the $31,000 was a fee of some $4,000 that Mr. Perry Howard received from the Pullman Company to lift the member up race. This is the way he fought them: He put out inspired statements to the effect that the organization of Pullman employees, who were asking for higher wages, was a communist organization and because of that fact was not entitled to consideration. Of course, finally the boys in the Pullman organization, with our assistance, are the Department of Justice. He was suspended and finally forced to resign. That, however, is a concrete example of the way communist propaganda poured out over the United States. —The Congressional Record. Howard Freshmen Play The freshmen students of the College of Education of Howard University presented their work at the middle school meeting of the Poseidonzola Club. The scenery or the occasion was designed for the portrait of the occasion. The education under the direct supervision of Prof. J. V. Herring, head of the department of art. M. R.

President Hoover, when he received word of Dr. Moton's willingness to head the educational commission, wrote to him as follows: I am delighted to have your approval that an exhaustive examination should be carried out in order that we may have the most constructive advice from the ablest institution in this country on NO ORGANIZATION SIMMONS HOPES TO BEAT DEPRIEST NO ORGANIZATION SIMMONS HOPES TO BEAT DEPRIEST Congressional Primary Fight Holds Stage in Chicago ROBERTS RUNS Contest for State Senate George Unopposed CHICAGO, (ANP.) — The din of applause which follows his nightly speeches and the letters of endorsement which he has received from persons in high official life are held to have influenced Roscoe Conkling Simmons, candidate for Congress, against Oscar DePriest, in the Republican primaries, to make the prediction that he is sure to win. DePriest is in the middle of two battles. On the one hand he must beat Nathan S. Goyer, lawyer and district United States district attorney, for the position as ward commiteeman in the Third. Taylor is aligned with the Deneen forces. Most observers incline to the belief that Taylor will give DePriest a very stiff fight for the local post, using as the chief issue that it is unfair for DePriest to hold two elective The fight between DePriest and Taylor, however, is a battle between organizations the Thompson orbital behind DePriest, the Dempsey behind Taylor. No Organization In the struggle with Simmons, however, Deprist is thought to enjoy a distinct advantage because, so far, no organization has come to sponsor Simmons. Organization men and the most politically active citizens are strong in their belief that no man, however popular he may be, personal success can succeed. He has an doorbell of workers who pull the door bells, know the people, visit among them with caelory, and whatnot and are interested in preserving for themselves an organization he brought to them. Wright is Mum Simmons announced his candidacy with the statement that he has backed the organization, by Edward W. Wright. But it developed that the announcement was intended to draw Wright out more than anything else. So far, Wright has no number of people to call. To all queries he replies that Simmons has not consulted him. There is this much to be said: If Simmons can convert into votes the applause which follows his speeches, he will know that he has been in a fight. Simmons is running on the following platform: "One country, one flag, one people, one work and the right of any man to make his money work for him. A protective tariff and the fathers and defenders of American industry. Complete link to the gulf water by control of flood waters of the Mississippi. 'Restoration of respect for American law by the Voting Volunteer Act so that the 18th Amendment can be enforced. Enabling Act so that the 14th Amendment for all soldiers of all war; and care for their wives. 'Work for American labor and protection of American citizens. Every Jim Crow can in an insult to the dignity of American citizenship. Given a chair in the President's Cabinet. 'The right of labor to organize and the duty of workers to organize every trump to oll American workers. 'I am a Republican.'" Seat in popular The imam has gone abroad that Simmons's fight against DePriest will increase the chances of a white man being elected. This is true only if animosity engendered in the primary carry over into the general One Republican and one Democrat will be nominated in the April primary. These two will fight it out for election in November. The Democrat will depend on the candidate file for November election, the chances of DePriest or any other colored candidate would be further jeopardized. Roberts Opposed by Doullass Another battle which is attracting considerable attention is that of the State Senator B. Doullass. Roberts has the Thomson organization support; Doullass, the Deneen. Both men are warm campaigners. Roberts is the only colored man serving in the state of any state in the union. Roberts is opposed by Denmination of Judge Albert B. George seems assured. He has been endorsed by the Thompson organization, but it is understood that Wright, the Deneen leader, declined to endorse another candidate or support and pleaded with their ballots for George on primary day. "We don't want to run the risk of losing our only colored judge," explained Wright, "and Judge George has made a good record."

PREXY URGES GRADUATESTO WEAR OVERALLS Ghandi Lauded by Dr. Johnson, Who Scores Communism CHURCH FAILS American Religion is Termed Incompetent WASHINGTON, (CNS.)—Citing the caste system as a hindrance to the progress of the Negro in America, as well as the principal weakness of the Indian and the Haitian, and urging self-respect, Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, spoke at the Sunday morning services in Rankin Memorial Chapel on the university campus, in advocacy of a careful study by the young Negro of the life and work of Mahatma Ghandi. "Negro college graduates of today," he said, "should don a special brand of cheapest variety of home-made overalls to let the Negro farthest down know that they are one with him. Mahatma Gandhi is conducting today the most significant religious movement in the world, in his endeavor to inject religion into questions of economics and politics. The economic situation of the Negro in America is one of similar import to that of the Indian of the East. "It is important that young people of this day and general body and understand Gandhi perfectly for the Negro is closely related in economics and politics to the people of India. Religion Incompetent "American religion has shown itself incompetent during the years to deal satisfactorily with the Negro in great public questions of economics and politics. There is no consideration on the part of the American general public whether the Negro has work, bread or counsel. "There is certain very worthy individual solicitude, but no attempt by the organized church to project Christianity into public life," he said. Communism Warning the Negro against Communism, Dr. Johnson said: "Communism, which excludes religion, is unsuited to the Negro, but the Gandhi movement is deserving the Negro's most careful consideration." Dr. Johnson will soon depart for Port-au-Prince to assist in reorganizing the educational program of the Negro Republic. Juror on Doheny Panel WASHINGTON.

The lecture lasted about two hours. It was delivered in front of Souvain, and with that air of self possession but rarely achieved even by the most accomplished lecturers.

But he changed from philanthropy emerging from Washington and Brooklyn Heights found but few responsive hearts. President Andrew Johnson "President Johnson was against the Negro, there was no use denying that, and to say that Andrew Johnson was following the footsteps of Abraham Lincoln to slander the memory of the dead." "With all their villainy the southern people had a nice sense of honor, and though he respected an open rebel, he despised a dough face.

Yes, dear, for it is good to see our own race once more in goodly numbers. We left Australia on the ninth of January on the Canadian steamship Aorangi. We stopped in New Zealand, Suva, Fiji and Honolulu. Suva was the most interesting place on this trip, as we were very fortunate in seeing more native life there. In spite of the invasion of the white, man, than a Honolulu. We visited in Suva, the native village, which consists of many nuis, quite large and only access to room in this room hut is a huge bed on trampation in one corner, the earth and over of fireplace for preparing such a they eat, and the floor (dirt) is covered with layers of straw matting. No chairs. Everyone sits on the floor. At nite, the whole family sleeps in this huge bed—aud the chief, too. There is one chief to a village. They alternate often and go the whole round until they have slept in each hut in each village. The girls and boys, men and women, including the chief, occupy one bed. The girls dip their wooly hair into a lime solution, which turns it henna and a pinkish color. According to the strength of the solution, they dress in long dresses of "The best looking man I saw was a very highly educated Fijian, about the age of fifty-six, very straight, very clean and neat, wearing American made jeans, a short shirt and a pair of trousers. He was carrying a cane. The most striking thing about him was his beard, which was grazing and CURLED in the most fascinating way." Harlem Educating Studio Has Dedication Program With Rudy Horst as master of ceremonies, the dedication of the studio of the Harlem Broadway theater, the Broadway Building, 101 West 125th street, corner of Lonox avenue in New York, was opened with a program in which a thirty artist, every voice in the crowd, soft hummed the opening chorus. "Swanee River." This was followed by "Mighty Like Rose," which was sung by the original Negro opera, the Harlem theater, under the direction of Leonard Coleman. Following this number, a reading was given by Miss Olivia-Ward, Sush Bhanda, "Echoes," from *The Wizard of Oz*, which is the author. This reading depicted the origin of Negro Spirituals and as a good background for this reading, the Negro Achievement Quartette offered two spirituals: one, Herbert T.

Victory Saves Two Boys From Death After Torture and Confession NEW YORK—Robert Bell and Grady Swain, once sentenced to death and once to life imprisonment for the alleged murder of a white boy, for whom the N.A.A.C.P. helped finance two appeals at a cost of $1,480, on third trial have been sentenced to ten years in prison. Monday was spent in trying to secure a jury. Only nine jurors were obtained, and rather than carry the case over another year, the lawyers compromised. The defendants pleaded guilty and threw themselves on the merge of the court. To procure the original conviction which was reopened, the boys were threatened, tortured and tortured with whippings in order to make a "confession." Had a white attorney not intervened in the case, and the N.A.A.C.P. backed him up, it is likely that the two young boys would have been executed charged with a murder of which their attorney and the N.A.A.C.P. believe them innocent.

Young Got Into West Point by Accident First Colored Colonel Stopped Studying for Catholic Priesthood to Take Examinations NEW YORK.—The late Colonel Charles Young, first colored officer in the restroom, to reach this rank, enforced West Point Military Academy by accident. He was born in Helena, Kentucky, in 1864, and his parents moved into Ohio because schools were better. They settled in Ripley, Ohio, where Young grew up to early manhood. He entered the public schools, later going to the Ripley High School, then graduated at the age of sixteen. To graduate at this age at that time was a high accomplishment. It was not at the first the intention of Colonel Young to enter the army. While teaching he decided to study for the Priesthood, and entered a Jesuit College. Just as he began his studies for the priesthood he had an opportunity for entrance to West Point. We was successful in passing the West Point entrance examination, and was appointed to the Academy from Ohio, June 15, 1884. He reported at the Military Academy. He was the only colored man in his class. The great majority of the cadets were opposed to colored men entering the Military Academy. This prejudice was shown in many ways. It required tact, judgment, determination and a cool head to live down this senseless prejudice against color. His conduct not only to live down this prejudice but at the time of his graduation he had the respect of the entire corp of cadets. Lightfoot-Robinson NEW YORK—Miss Bettie L.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (1991) A judge in Georgia shot a Negro and killed him and the jury brought him to trial for the killing of unfitable inmates. When it is known that the judge went after the Negro and the Negro was attempting to defend himself, the judge said that justice has one eye open for color in Georgia. Effeminate Men In the old days forminate men were shuemed as degrenerates. Not so today, since psychanalysts have had their say, and books like the "Well of Loneliness" have built up toleration for the men who wish they were women and the women who wish they were men. In York, society leaders throng to a dance where the women are beardless men. A similar "art club" dance in Baltimore celebrated its eighth anniversary last week. A party of Washington men in women's gowns possession of a local cabaret one night last week. As expected, tolerance for the persons of twisted sex has resulted in the establishment of a fad, and an openly denuded recreation of normal young people. There is nothing more dangerous to the growth of a race and nothing more disgusting than this group of atypical men, whose minds should be centered on wholesome exercise and recreation, clean living and has a talent to the use of the skirt, the lipstick and the powder puff as a means of physically attracting others of the same sex.

HOWARD WALLACE No Bills nor Receipts The special U.S. Senate Committee inquiring into patronage distribution in the Southern States submitted its report last Saturday. Evidence of the barter and sale of Federal offices in South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, and Texas was uncovered by the committee. R. R. Crager, Texas, white, held a national committee-money from job holders for political purposes but his method was not illegal. Mr. John W. Martin, white, Georgia leader who succeeded Mr. Benjamin Davis, has a regular organization for collecting 5 and 10 per cent of the salaries of the he appointees. — Mr. John W. Tolbert, white, who never wears a necktie — places all Federal jobs on sale. The same is true, the committee indicates, for Mississippi, although Mr. Perry Howard the national committeeman has been twice indicted and twice tried in Mississippi, without being found guilty. To the APRO-AMERICAN, the committee's report is not at all satisfactory and as far as we are concerned it should be sent back to committee, with instructions to its laborers. The report condemning all four states equally does not indicate why Mr. Perry Howard alone was picked for two Federal indictment and prosecution. Why has the Department of Justice charged "Notless" Tolbert and "Uncle Bob" Crager? Was it Mr. Howard has "one drop" of colored blood? The Senate Committee in its report referred to Mr. Howard's dismissal in the Federal courts of Mississippi on charges prefereed to be prosecuted. Does the committee have new evidence against Mr. Howard as the basis of this charge or is its report an allegation that the U.S. courts in Mississippi cannot be depended upon to do justice? Only our humble judgment is that the committee erred in its failure to look into patronage selling in Maryland, Virginia, New York and all the other states. The only difference, if any, in the selling of jobs, in the different states lies in the fact that in the North jobholders send in checks without getting a bill or a receipt.

Does the committee have new evidence against Mr. Howard as the basis for or is its report an allegation that the U.S. courts Mississippi cannot be depended upon to do justice? Finally, our humble judgment is that the committee erred in its failure to look into patronage selling in Maryland, Virginia, New York, and all the other states.

The AFRO-AMERICAN Has Directed Reporters and Proreaders to Eliminate the Word "NEGOTIATE" for "NEGOT" or "NEGOTATED" in These Columns. Just how journalists can persist in using the term "race man" to apply solely to individuals of the Negro race is a source of speculation and wonder. One newspaper recently carried these headlines: "No Race Haiti" and "No Race Shake-up." Just how journalists can persist in using the term "race man" to apply solely to individuals of the Negro race is a source of speculation and wonder. One newspaper recently carried these headlines: "No Race Men to Haiti" and "No Race Cops Fired in Big City" are more likely to call attention to the fact that no Negro men were appointed on the Haitian Investigation Commission and that no Negro paper were discharged in the United States. The political opinion shake-up. Indeed, every member of the commission appointed to investigate Haitian affairs is a member of SOME race men who are the term "race man" who are one of them or to someone who was not appointed, is silliness to the very last degree. Aside from the term being intangible, illogical, investment and silly, it is crude. The term suggests a pitiful floundering in an abortive attempt at originality. No one doubts but that the term is original. It is a more likely to be called "elbow" for this term. It would be interesting to know the origin of this term "race man." However, extensive research has failed to disclose the真面目. It is clear that the term "race man" is the first and its general acceptance, and its glaring appearance in large type on the front pages of our otherwise very good newspapers, should be located in the thoughtless area of the United States. It is indefinite and inaccurate. Besides, it is bad form for us to attempt to "hog" a word that belongs equally to the people who are working. The "Negro race" is the world some illustrious sons indeed—men of indomitable courage, character and strength, and the need for the help of them. Those of the past and these of the present ARE NEGROES. They aren't ashamed of it, nor are they ashamed to be spoken of as Negroes.

Indeed, every member of the commission applauded the African affairs is a member of SOME race, but, to use the term "race man" to apply to any one of them or to someone who was not appointed, is silliness to the very end. Aside from the term being intangible, illogical, inleagant and silly, it is crude. The term suggests a physical object, but it signifies the origin of the term. No one doubts but that the term is original, but, ye gods, what do calibrate? It would be interesting however, extensive research has failed to disclose the secret. Whatever is responsible for the term and its general acceptance, and its glaring appearance, otherwise very good newspapers, should be located and brought to light as a shining example of clowning.

To refer to such men as Fred Douglass, Booker Warner, Major Moton, Oscar DePriest, or Sam Reading as "race men" seems to be taken from them some of the glory that is rightfully theirs.

My attention was called to a book, which president of Northern University, saying that the word "Negro" is not the correct title of the Bible. Hamite or black race; that there is no foundation for it to be found in the Bible. He is black, for instance, Negro horse, Negro eat, or Negro tik, etc., meaning a black horse, a black cat, or a black bird. What puzzled over Mr. Winston's classification of the word "Negro" is that many school books that the word "Negro" is the proper word to use when referring to the black race. I cannot compose myself to use the word "Negro" otherwise. I must be proper to use the word "Negro" otherwise. 151 W. 140-st., New York. T. L.

All this, if you please, for the purpose of demonstrating that Negroes are not like Amos 'n' Andy, but like Drew D. Young or W. E. B. DUBOS. Absurd of course. What Mr. Mitchell and all the other "better element" what need to do is strain after the appearance of what they are not, and give some attention to what they really are. It is best assured that if Howard University does it work well, its products will make the neighboring city of Philadelphia that if Emmet Scott be known as a useful citizen, it does not matter what his racial identity may be in large centers for social purposes and devote themselves to medicine where they are needed, any moderately informed social agent will know about them. How would Mr. Mitchell like to have Amos 'n Andy? In plug hats, with morning coats, striped trousers, glassined hair, spats, patient leather shoes and an Oxford accent? Instead of having them struggling with the immediate and aembryonal problem of how to get and keep on a decent and usable spare store, he had to be a head量的 testing of mergers, mortgages, international loans and foreign trade balances? All this, if you please, for the purpose of demonstrating that Negros are not like Amos 'n Andy, but like Owen D. Young or W. E. B. DuBois? Absurd, of course. What Mr. Mitchell and all the so-called "better element" need to do is stop straining after the appearance of what they are not, and give some attention to being a whole-some genuine edition of what they really are. It's best assured that Homer has to do with work well, because he will make it known to the members of the land, let alone the neighboring city of Philadelphia; that if Emmett Scott be known as a useful citizen, it does not matter what his racial identity may be; and if Negro doctors give up congregating in large centers for their purposes and devote themselves to the training where they are needed, and so orderately informed social workers in any town big enough to boast a social agency will know about them.

Taft was elected to the presidency, November 3, 1908, as a result of support of one of the best foreign advisers in the country, Roosevelt. Up to the time of his election, Negroes had held posts as Register of the Treasury, ministers to foreign ports and customs, and Negroes throughout the country rejoiced when Roosevelt named—practically appointed—Taft to keep up the good work he had started because new Negroes would be employed in office. But instead of Mr. Taft following in the footsteps of his predecessor, he came out in that memorable statement that nowhere in the country was a Negro appointed to office. From this time on Negroes have never held the important posts at Washington that they had held. Immediately a drive to stop Negro appointment would have been successful to prevent the appointment again of a Register of the Treasury. HENRY F. ARNOLD.

Why Not a Negro Quota Club? Ask the average college grad what is the economic program of the American Negro, and he will show that his instruction along this line has invariably lacked study from the group angle. He knows what he wants to do as an individual, but he has no clear cut idea as what the race as a whole should do nor the part he should play in it. Here is suggestion for a department of economics in our colleges. Instructors and professors of economics have written much on labor and kindred industrial problems, but we have learned from our students how well worked program for economic adjustment of the group in America. As long as there are racial lines of denmarkation in industry and trade, there must be racial programs to meet these differences. Why should not some practical economist work out a five- or ten-year national economic forecast and go ahead with goals in factory, retail and wholesale business acquirements, but the details which would give every individual his part in reaching these goals? For instance, our economists could designate just how much farm land the Negro should own in America, a survey would easily show how far we are from this objective and our farm organizations could go seriously about the work of handing over these assets to it. If we need to establish a certain number of grocery stores, our economists could tell each family how much out of each dollar should be spent on farm equipment. Negro conducted store this. And so on down the line we might establish quota clubs to lay the foundation for a Negro business and industrial security. We us think about it, college economists. Suppose She Advertised Her Home-Made Bread? "You must be joking," declared one of the guests, "when you say that these rolls are bought in a local bake shop." "I most certainly am not," declared the guest hostess, mentioning the place she had bought the bread. "You don't tell me that this place has been selling this kind of home-cooked product and I did not know it?" the guest said. There are thousands of others here in Baltimore who would be surprised to know many things that are being done, because the people doing them do not let it be known. Just suppose this woman who makes the home-cooked rolls should advertise. Some day she might own a $50,000 business. Some Clouds Without Silver Linings The old saying that all clouds have their silver linings did not work out for a little wife and mother on a little Baltimore street who told her story to the writer this week. It was a story of hope, sacrifice and devotion which would soften a heart of stone. Pate reached down its hand and scoured her before even she had seen the light of this world, and all but took her sight away. But hope came when a brother and sister deliberately education and higher chance in life to give it to her. They worked and sent her to college. With high ideals, and a trained mind she laid aside the goal and gave it to a problem of life. Then came her first disappointment — the disappointment of a woman in the man she had trusted. With a baby in her arms, she looked to find her dream of love shattered. But even here, she said, she looked through the clouds of gloom for the silver lining. She gritted her teeth, lifted her head, and started again to Now, down in a little room she lies with the last flickering flame of life ebbing out, in the shadow of a lion's claw, and nothing else lining. Nothing she can think of that she has done accounts for the hard row she's had to weed in life. She has played the game fairly, kept pesky bugs out, and yet she has reaped the whirlwind, while many another woman has broken all the rules that lead to happiness with better results. "Maybe," she whispered, "there is a just God who rules the universe. Yes maybe." The fact it there would have to be a God somewhere just to take care of her, and we have viewed the silver lining before they left this world. What the Haitian Outcome May Mean Three unusually important results may be hoped for from the virtual U.S. Marine regime from Haiti. First of all, it is hoped that it will be able to return to establish a form of orderly government of their own Second, it is hoped that it will establish a new economic system whereby Haitians will be allowed to share more largely in the commodities they produce. To do this, Haiti will have to break its moorings from the old European ideals of high hats and braided hairstyles and imbibe and train its people like Russia where every human unit is given the full benefits of the country's resources. The troubles of Haitians have not been alone those which come because of exploitation from without, the failure of their own leaders to sell their brothers for a mess of petage.

Two Brothers who Lived and Loved Nearly Eighty Years Chips from the Quarry Chips from the Quarry The Proofreader Talks While the linotyper was delicately touching the keys—putting into type my last weeks' notes, I was surprised by the clumsy purlures of a group of initials came under my eye in a bit of copy for the paper. The most beautiful of the many n y of the Y.M.C.A.'s (I am copying him exactly). I was in the period after the "A," whether the apostrophe was used or not. But the chief point I wish to is: why is it the most "mimicking" of why YM.C.A.'s? or better still, why notmit the words "of any". Such expressions as in the one in the poem and annoying when grammatically correct. Counting the group of initials as one word, we have, after the word of the group, one is needed, to say nothing of the clumsy plural form of the group of initials. A certain style book on gives the name "Tommy Atkins", in such a phrase as, "all the Tommy Atkins" of England." It is thus printed. Even granting that such a plural can be defended (though I do not grant it), why not write the phrase thus, the word "leave- It is not intended here to argue against pluralizing all and every proper noun, because it is felt that the formation of the plural of a proper noun in the regular way (by merely adding the noun) is the word sentence as to leave the word in the singular—and this applies even more forcibly to groups of initials. I can argue that the word sentence is really necessary to write the plural of "E.P.O.E. of the W". In fact it would not know how to use it about The Capital "N" in the Word "Negro" From the N.Y. World, March 10 The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, most recently, emphasized the importance to the fact that a long list of periodicals have heeded its arguments and decided to print the work not for certain events in American history, this of course would be an extremely trivial thing; there is no reason in logic why the work should be capitalized, and in some languages, as for example the French and the German, it is not. Our language the names of races are capitalized, and that in the United States the Negro race alone should have been designated by a man, and that others have abbeed the result of accident. It seemed to reflect the conviction of the white man in our early days that the Negro was in some way inferior to the white man, and vice was retained, long after constitutional amendments and other pronunciaments and put a theoretical mark of inferiority masked of hypocrisy. The association is right in working for the capital N, and the readiness of the newspapers to magazine, etc., have agreed to use it indicates that the hypersis was good doing, they have contributed in a quiet but enormously effective way. It is interesting by the way, how many of the newspapers on the association's list are published, that the effort of many in that section of the country to ease the acute problem is thoroughly sincere. Faithful Dog Keeps Vigil for More than Year at Grave That strangest of affinities, the companionship between a man and a dog, is perfectly than in the case of Dave Brack, a Winona, Miss, meat cutter, and Brack, wife died on the last day of 1928, loved dogs and fed scores of them.

The other dogs were put in the grave but Spot staved at the grave. And the next night he走. And it matters not whether it is rain or whether, together the moon is shining or a storm is brewing, the dog can always be found on the roof.

Grimke, pastor of Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church, whose brother, Archibald H., died recently at the age of 81. The relation that existed between my brother and myself was always the same. Nothing was ever able to impair in the least, that relationship. For the first fifteen or sixteen years I lived home in Charleston, South Carolina, under the fostering care of a loving mother. After that we both started North together in search of an education. A little while we were separated, but soon found ourselves together again at Lincoln University where we roomed together, studied history and worked for a year after year until our graduation in 1870. After that we were separated again: He went to Boston to enter Harvard Law School and I went to Princeton Theological Seminary. After graduation he settled in Boston and began the practice of his job as a teacher in this city. Though hundreds of miles apart we still kept in close touch with each other through correspondence and occasional visits. He also became the father he became connected with the schools of Washington as teacher, he gave up his residence in Boston, where he here with me, which he con- By J. A. ROGERS PARIS.—Harlem continues to receive much publicity from the pens of European writers. This time it is from Paul Morand, author of "Black Magic," and several other books on the Negro. In his latest book, "New York," he has devoted a chapter to Harlem. The picture is not an attractive one, which means that it would be highly attractive for slums. books, bootlegs, numbers, numbers, and fights, sale of "hot goods," and fights with policemen. M. Morand is of the opinion that if it were not for the policemen, Harlem would quickly become a Indian in the fury of wielding and the fury of arrogance. Haitian emperor.

It is all of working Harlem, the domestic, dish-washers, day-laborers, cooks and elevators boys, returning after the Skating Clad in Furs Later he sees Negroes skating, clad in furs, and he, who has been accustomed to seeing them go nude in Africa, even in the month of February, is astonished at "the tropics in the extremes." Beauty parlors, banjo shops, and undertaking parlor(s) (next to a Chinese funeral, a Negro funeral beats everything) greet guests with a smile, as if attacked by a few of mastication, dreary as Orientales telling their beads; faces buried in light-colored waterproof coats, too light-colored, heavy jaws overflowing. "Thus grouped at one end of Manhattan, these blacks are themselves again, and the quarter are themselves again, and the picture is human disorder. They break the mechanical life of America, and for this one ought to be thankful to them, for without them you can be happy without bank accounts and bath tubs. The Policeman “At the crossing stands the policeman, symbol of white civilization, surveying this little Africa. If this policeman were suddenly to disappear, Harlem would quickly become a West India island given over to voodooism and the Caesarian oratory of a Soulouque, plume in hat.” He visits the different cabarets, the Cotton Club, the Sugar Cane, in the second part of the night; and in the Harlem Club he sees the African Room decorated by Aaron Douglas. He sees Small's, the Nest, Savoy Ballroom, and the Capitol. Selling "Hot" Stockings Last of all, he visits an underground cabaret to see some girls in green and mauve robes who are to take part in a review called "Bronze Beauties." In the offing are "two gentlemen who had quarrelled the day before with a black policeman and he had given them reminders of the occasion on their heads with a heavily loaded night stick; today, quite reconciled they are caressing with a powerful hand the nude backs of the little dancers." From after this, an old lady enters and begins to sell "hot" stockings to the dancers. "Harlem is the home of jazz.

CAPITALIZING THE WORD "NEGRO" FROM DEFERENCE A Term at First Applied in the Spirit of Derision or Contempt Often Becomes an Expression of Highest Enoblement. By KELLY MILLER Press and publicists have been insisting upon the capitalizing of the word Negro from time immemorial. The press has been insistent in its prime and stood sponsor for the black man's cause more heretofore than any other American publication. The press has been authorizing on the proper elegant use of language. And yet our journalistic defender insisted that it was proper use of language to use the word Negro in response to my query why it should be in such belitement, it was explained that Negro was not a Geographic term like him, Gerhardt, German, German, German, such as a superficial designation, such as white, red and brown. Tymographical Policy The persistence in the use of the small letter is not in an instance merely of typographical policy. The New York Times, the Atlantic, and many other publications have been constrained to use the big "N" purely out ofference to the degree of concession without the requirements of concession as to the requirements of correct form. From the Negro's point of view, it is not only the nation to capitalize all other groups of the human family and reserve the small initial letter only for the demands it is undoubtedly true that many publications failed or refused to capitalize the small initial letter, except to them the word Negro connotes an inferior status such as a slave. To give the capital letter would give the despised race the emobbling designation of the more favored and preferred sections of the human Discard Altogether Mr. George S. Schuyler, who is one of the most discerning and daring writers among us, decries the placing undue emphasis on the racial designation by dignifying it with a capital letter. He would prefer that the term be discarded altogether because of the current disceem and the historic stigma attached to the designation. The Chicago Defender advocates the adoption of some other term, such as "Race man." This designation would have no earthly meaning outside of those initiated into this peculiar lexicographical cult: I wonder what meaning the term "Race man" would convey to a Frenchman. Many well meaning persons of color seriously insist that the persistent use of the term "Negro" serves to keep the people designated under it in an inferior and subordinate place in the white man's mind. They advocate some other designation such as "colored man" or Afro-American. But they have never made any serious headway with their theory. Most people who use the English language with effectiveness and power persist in sticking to the term "Negro," and white writers all agree to such usage. Proper Designation Those who insist on capitalizing "Negro" thereby indicate their acceptance of the term as the proper designation of the group intended to be covered by it. I have always is sisted that it makes no difference. The long run, by what name a people is designated. Any appreciative will in time take on the meaning which the character of the people impart to it. The history of words discloses amazing transformations of meaning. A term at first applied in the spirit of derision or contempt often becomes an expression of highest ennoblement. Such is the story of the word "Christian." On the other hand terms of highest distinction have degenerated into designations of ridicule and contempt. The word "Dunce" is a classical illustration of the degeneration of words. It seems to me that it is a matter of salutary indifference by what appellation the race is designated, since there is no imputed or implied insult or affront, in the intention. African-Afro-American At one time the race was designated as "Africans," and accepted that African Methodist Episcopal Church is a survival of that time. For some reason, not now clear to me, that race has come quite distasteful. There would have been one undoubted advantage in retaining this geographical designation, but we have arisen the issue of capitalization. The question of accuracy of the several terms is often raised. No race is more distasteful than "African." If the use of a term conveys the meaning of the group intended, nothing more can be required. I am in the habit of using "Negro," "African," and even "African," whenever the one or the other best fits into the discourse. I have never been misunderstood as to meaning. Negro—Virginia J. C. I think, however, that all will agree that "Negro" is used it should be capitalized. In the meanwhile, let me repeat my work-a-day definition of a "NEGro" as any person who would be jim-crowed in Virginia.

To the strains of the wedding march, pearls and orange bows adorned New York, the bride, in loveliest white pearl, pearls, soft, trailing, tuil vell trimmed with tropical orange bows and with sweet peas, the bride and sweet peas, entered the parlor of her attractive decorated home, 2040 Master Street, on the arm of her father, M.

Just until recently the old arrow hovered between 18 and 19, it is not a small one, so it's still back-way from 115—that since possibly, the first of the year—still I'm worried. I eat three meals a day—when I think of them. Sometimes, to save time I decided to "make 'em" all in one, usually around eleven hours. I'll go to the park to write a tumble into bed anytime between midnite and two; arise, consensus of opinion to the contrary notwithstanding, around seven in the morning—never mind the details I 'twict that and my emerging fully clad for the jog-trot, and since Lent began to have an additional little previous on my list—the church (More about this further on). Still... as I said before, I'm worried. I can't understand why the old digestive system is still at a full focus, why the old in the old brain are squeaking, and not producing any commendable work; why the temper that I thought surely had left me around the first of the year, never to return gives evidence that it's lurking around nearby. I wonder? Nope!... I you're dead wrong. I'm not going (going) I found my own answer the other day. It was while sitting quietly in Sir Peter's room that I noticed that I have been during the Lenten season, since I stopped going, to Sunday school—and that wasn't yesterday. I came to somehow, religion (an adequate definition for which, Chance Darrow, and several other eminent minds could come to no unanimous agreement) is one of the most important teachings in the church, it finally provokes reactions as varied as the construction placed upon that very delicate theme. However, I am not attempt-ing to teach them how far away from the church I can travel, and decide that most of the teachings should be taken with a grain of salt, so I will teach them into the modern day scheme of things; yet do I marvel in spite of my self.

Tomorrow I shall try to repent this, thereby attempting to establish a routine from which I have been a struggling to get away, some around to it, another, and so on.

Aired SECOND CHICAGO ELECTION KILLING PROVES MYSTERY CHICAGO, (ANP.) — A new political slaying which is being referred to by some writers as a "minor Granady murder" occurred here on registration day, Tuesday, when the Rev. William H. Slaughter, spiritual leader of a small Baptist mission, and a William Hale Thompson precinct worker, was shot in the Forty-second Ward. The shooting took place in an alley close to the precinct headquarters. Italian in Argument Tuesday night it was reported that Slaughter and John Pampinella, a Sicilian worker for the Deneen faction, had argued in the grocery store used for registration purposes and that they had left the store together. As a consequence Pampinella was seized and held by the police. Richard Prendergast, the Deneen leader in the ward, engaged himself in behalf of Pampinella but was unable to effect his release. Inquest hearings were held Wednesday and returned with no prior results save that at Thursday's inquest Pampinella was booked for the murder. District Tough The district which was the scene of the slaying is regarded as tough and Deputy Coroner George F. Proctor, who was conducting the inquest, found that the police in the city indicate that little headway could be made in establishing responsibility. On Thursday the testimony of the white witnesses resembled a perfectly rehearsed recitation, all of them agreeing that the police a quarrel with his sweetheart and that they were sure she had met him in the dark and done him to death. Other parts of the alibi sought to be constructed by the white witnesses placed Pampinelle at a place far from the time of the murder at the time is occurred. Witnesses Afraid Most of the colored witnesses appeared to be afraid to testify. One of them, Daniel Fulner, was a member of the statement to police Tuesday night, changed his testimony when questioned 'by the coroner's deputy. Ocatus Granady, Negro candidate for committeeman of the Twentieth Ward on the Deneen ticket, was slain shortly after the polls had closed. The police, although thousands of dollars were spent in investigations to establish guilt. JR.

Washington and Dunbar junior high schools here in the Booker T. gym. Lafayette Avenue and McCulloh Street, Thursday afternoon. Girl, Gladys Ferguson, is said to have received a blow over the head and several players, playleaders and coaches sought vainly to quell it developed into a riot which continued in the street after the five remaining games, scheduled for the afternoon were cancelled. Bad Feeling Playleaders and students declare that for some time bad feeling has existed between groups from Dunbark and those representing the two schools in Northwest Baltimore. Dispute over a boy's alleged use of "ringers" by Dunbark: started the trouble. No boys were involved. Actual fighting started when one of the girls pushed another. Like a flash the opposing sides, including number of rooters, into each other, fought with Indian clubs and chairs were brought into play and there was much hair pulling. Even the intervention of Samuel Taylor and other teachers who hurried from the boy's gym, was full in stopping the fight. T. Washington junior high girls had to be locked into rooms until the Dunbark girls left the building. Miss Ferguson, the girl most seriously hurt, was taken to Provident Hospital for treatment. Her injuries Fear that fighting would be renewed on the outside, caused those in charge to ask the assistance of police in disguising the girls in charge in charge, at the inn where the Temple May Muse and Mattie White, from School No. 138; Alma Taylor and Laura Jones, from Douglass High School, and Dorothy Mitchell, from School No. 138 have objected to certain members of the Dunbar team playing, who had been promoted in the February class.

POET HUGHES WELL RECEIVED IN CUBA POET HUGHES WELL RECEIVED IN CUBA Ward Steamship Co. Insists Color Bar was Work of Cuban Government. WORKERS AFFECTED Hughes Welcomed Warmly by Cuban People NEW YORK—Langston Hughes, poet, to whom the Ward Line declined to sell a passage to Cuba, on the ground that Negro tourists were discouraged by the Cuban government, and who sailed on a Cunard Line steamship, visited the M.A.A.C.P. on his return to New York last week, and reported that he had enjoyed a most cordial reception, being the guest of honor at notable receptions and entertainments in Cuba. Meanwhile, William C. Campbell, general passenger agent of the Ward Lines, called at the time 8:00 P.M. at the B.C. 40 Fifth Avenue, and gave assurance which he confirmed by letter today, that the refusal to sell passage to colored travellers, had not originated with his request for suitings of intimations from Cuban officials that colored tourists and visitors would not be permitted to land. The direct statement from the Cuban government obtained by the Cuban bar, was the first official utterance anyone had found it possible to obtain, said Mr. Campbell. This official statement from 1974, made by the secretary of state for Cuba in a categrom to Walter White, acting secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., declares that "No government ruling exists denying entry of aliens under any laws against Chinese laborers, enacted 28 years ago. Laborers From Halti The N.A.A.C.P. further learns that there has been a disposition in Cuba to restrict the entry of Nerol laborers, especially those migrating from Haiti, impelled by the rigors of the job. Mr. Hughes while in Havana, was the recipient of distinguished courtesies from leading Cuban journalists and poets, including the secretary to the President of Cuba, as well as the discrimination shown in the leading clubs and restaurants of Cuba.

AFRO RADIO HELPS WATER LEVEL IN STORAGE BATTERY The level of water in the storage battery should always be kept about 1/4 inch above the tops of the separators. The water contained in the electrolyte of a storage battery generally evaporates and of the plates and the separators are exposed to the air, sulphation results. Again the fact that only the water evaporates and the acid remains causes the remaining electrolyte in the cell to reach a higher specific gravity, and the factor tending to cause sulphation. Sulphate of lead is a hard whitish substance which forms on the surfaces of the plates, and as it is a non-conductor of electricity, it renders the sulphated portion of the plates practically inoperative. When plates are sulphated, a long low charge we give them bring their back charge and give them a distilled water and charge for about four or five days at a low rate until the electrolyte shows no further tendency to rise in specific gravity.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, March 22, 1930 It'sNobody'sBusiness NECESSITY, that staunch old damsel, often credited with being the mammy of invention, probably gets, once in a while, a lot of the credit that should go to the pappy, Mister I. F. Nerve, if you'll take the case of one of those boys You May Know, who is quite a versatile fellow, to say the least. A man of Parts, he might be called, for certainly he can fit into more roles in a day than Tom Mosely, the actor feller. Take, for instance, an ordinary day in his young (or maybe not so young) life. We see him as he starts out from home, a worn leather brief case tucked securely under his arm. And, by the way, you'll hardly ever see him on the street without it. Down the street a few blocks, he is stopped by an old man, and the following conversation takes place: "I am a medicine you prescribed for me the other day certainly is down me good. Here's that three dollars I owe you." "Thanks," says 'doc', bowing graciously, and pocketing the money at the same time. "And don't forget that if you need me, just call and I'll be there." The scene shifts, and our hero is soon again, this time at one of the police stations. The sergeant and patrolmen seem to know him well, greeting him cordially, and after a snatch or two of conversation he passes down the corridor to the locker. Languages.

About Famous Folks Leigh Whipner, formerly of "Porgy" offers up a prayer before each performance. Irving Miller is especially partial to his theatre, all his clothes and a number of his theatrical ensembles are done in this popular color. He admits having a great weakness for brownskin women, too. As a matter of fact, he has been associated with a fair skinned damsel for more than a very short period of time (Dusty Fletcher take notice). Monette Moore, like Helen Wesley, one of the most beautiful novelists, washes her body with creams and oils. (Thank to Sid Skolsky for the afay info.) Mayme White, of Philadelphia, wears 34 bracelets, a novelist, smokes incestantly during an interview. Salem Tutt Whitney of "Green Pastures," can never remember to by shoe strings when he neds them. He organizes for his voice whenever he is asked to sing. Despite this fact, he waries what might be called a mean or wicked blues.

His red head is as famous in Harlem's night life as the white salesman is to Bartender Row (if that means anything to you). Eddie Pugh, comedian of "Malina- da," and formerly of Ethel Waters's "Africana," will never work on the stage without his hat. During the summer of '22, while playing in "All God's Chillin'" at the Royal Court Theatre, London, Richard (Dick) Huey insisted on cheeseburger as the major part of his diet. As a result of this, the unusual dish enjoyed great popularity in Sloan's Court, swank theatrical stool, during Dick's stay there. It became quite the Harry (Dad) Gray of "Halluajalu" fame, gets a genuine kick out of preparing his own meals. Ida Porsyne (Dick) will never make a congratulate her before she makes a stage entrance, for fear of having her act queen. Harry Mack the singe, and playing the role of a maid, any time an actor knocks too loudly on his room door door, the manager will soon be making out the team check "Pugh and Mack." Harry and Mantan Moreland are never seen without big cigars. As a fact, Mantan is never seen either on or off the stage without one stuck in his mouth, and Porter has always caught on (Big, big men from the South—you know). S. H.

ROGERS PARIS—Paul Robeson, the Utica Jubilee Singers, and Layton and Johnstone have been singing to crowded houses. European audiences seem never to have enough of them. Recently Robeson sang in the vast Salle Pleyel. Some enterprising person thought to increase his attraction by getting an orchestra of sixty pieces to play a prelude to each spiritual and a sort of center body to the spiritual self, and came as the audience wanted to hear Robeson, whose voice was nearly drowned by the din. Audience Shouts To make matters worse for Robenoe, his accompanist, Lawrence Brown, did not come, since with the orchestra, there was no need for him. The audience shouted for Robenoe, without a doubt, and then had to do some very fast thinking. Most of the Paris papers, next day, scolded the promoters for nearly spoiling the concert with their experiment. S. Jay Kaufman, well-known New York columnist, writing in the New York Herald of Paris, says that when the proposition was put to Robenoe he consented to it, but doesn't quarrel. He respects the other man's point of view," and that when someone suggested the huge orchestral accompaniment his gentle nature led him to defer to their opinion. Kaufman adds: "Round the world they have heard the man and view his records they hear the voice. None surpasses him. None surpasses him. This is because it is a voice simple, human, honest, just as are all great things." Layton and Johnstone Layton and Johnstone, who are the most popular team of singers in the British Isles, also packed the Salle Pleye Speaking of them, the Parker's New York band, "It might be supposed that as these singers' auditions have been frequently reproduced by phonographs, the public might be surprised to see the contrast, there seems to exist a great desire to see and hear them at the same time. "And thus the Salle Pleyel was crowded last Saturday. It was not more crowded than in the plantations, the beauty of the blue sky, and the dreams beside the old river: what was desired was the sight of Johnstone's melancholy look and Layton's broad smile, all that the presence of the two talented artists add to their program. Ewyn's celebrated song, 'I Kiss Your Hand, Madame, Madame, Madame,' gained a hundred when, to the caress of the melody and the attraction of the rhythm, are added the bright glance of the elk in the swamp of the body of the two singers." Utica Jubilee Singers The Uta Jubilee Singers, who are on a two-year tour of the world, delighted a large audience at Salle Gaveau with a varied and interesting selection of music, melodies, and spirituals, including such old favorites as "Swing Low, Sweet Charlol," and "Carry Me Back to Old Virginia." From Barcelona, Spain, where they came to work at Catalan Music, a similar report has come. The Spanish members of the audience who heard the Negro singers for the first time were amazed and delighted at their sweet voices, at the harmony and novelty and originally of their program. Practically the entire American colony was present and its members were carried back to the Southland where people who fascinate them with their melodies. Many encores were asked for and were given. So interesting were the Spanish audience, it is evident that they gave each number their quiet attention, which is regarded as a notable incident, since Spanish audiences are restless and will very quickly shout their disapproval of anything that falls to their The singers rendered songs of the field, and love songs as well as hymns and spirituals, and heard them heard the same as that expressed in other European cities; namely, the tendency to jazz some of their more serious offerings. Roheson Again Paul Robeson appeared a few days later at Salle Gaveau with Lawrence Brown and scored his usual success. The Paris Dally Mall said of his concert: "Paul Robeson, upon whose excellent qualities as a singer there is no need to insist, for the admirable artistry and musicality of his interrelations are universally recognized." mored that Bettie is soon to be married to one of our popular club and sportsperson from the Winds City. *** A.

Donald Grey Barnhouse at 5:30 p.m. Sunday, March 23, over WABC. "Bibliography and intolerance," declares the Rev. Barnhouse, "are not absent from the world.

After Durant for his lovely daughter Lyla, Rod's hasfulness, and his inability to dance well cause him to step on Lyla's foot, and her fiance, Reggie, makes an ugly remark. Lyla averts trouble by leading Rod into the garden where they quickly become friends as he tells her of his friend. Later in the evening, a number of young folks from the party go to the Swamp Hut, a notorious canaret on the South Side, where Rod defends Lyla against Wolf, owner of the Swamp Hut, and a notorious renter. After Rod has knocked Wolf out, and has driven his henchmen from the scene, Wolf regains consciousness, out of a foiled in his attempt to hunt Wolf, by yolks' presence of rain. The police raid the place, but Rod escapes with Lyla and takes her home. was going to attempt some effort to save his life. They were racing along at seventy miles an hour over the smooth concrete of a highway. Back of them the myriad lights of the city grew dim. The cold finger snatched at them with icy fingers when, suddenly the driver slapped on his brakes. The machine swayed to a slower pace; then plunged off the concrete into what other instant. The youth decided that it was now or never, but suddenly the glare of a him because he's got some sort of drag. However, I'm a special agent, and drag don't go with me, and if it does with any of the other fellows I don't know it. Our being out there on that little road tonight was a pure accident, though. We were laying for a gang of Italian rum runners when you fellows came along." "I'm sure glad you came along," Rod told him earnestly. "In about two minutes I guess those fellows would have shot me to death. But Til bet they won't catch me mapping again." "You could at least strap of yours." "I'm ready, that is, a ting on a tie," Rod plaid. Martin's office short, plump, swarthy man awaiting them. In a gray suit of obviate material, and he cloaked with the air of has been used to good time. "Oh," he cried small, the entered the office. He is warned against Wolf the next day by his friend Martin but laughs the warning away. When we call on Lyla that night, he meets her first time in the middle of the street, and he can look out for himself. Lyla asks her father to抱 Bod a job, but Rod derrures. That evening Rod tells Lyla that he loves her. When he leaves her house and walks toward the street, he feels the sharp presence of a gun in the middle of this street, and a grusel voice commands him to raise his hands. He compiles and is pushed ahead and a waiting car. CHAPTER III Rod thought quickly, but the sharp pressure of the gun in his back forced him to enter the waiting car, whose door swung open with silent ominous board as he stepped on the running board. A shadowy figure sat at the far side of the machine, and as Rod sank down beside it, he felt another gun probe into his side. His other captor leaped into the machine and gave a curt order to the driver. The captor was careening recklessly the street. Not till the machine was in motion did the other man in the seat with Fred beak. So our pilot plymmate was out of the office. His observation voce softly dangerous. With a chill sense of foreboding, Rod recognized the voice of Wolf—not the snarling voice in the Swamp Hut, but a silly, menacing voice which promised nothene but disaster. Wolf's gun, saddened fiercely into his voice changed abruptly into a threatening growl: "Did you think you could get away with轰ing me, big boy? Wolf asked me, big boy? Wolf asked me, continued, "You or nobody can do anything to me and get away with it." And you can't get away with this," he answered, as calmly as he could. "Oh! So I can't eh?" Wolf demanded fiercely. "Well, you'll see we are going to take you out into the country, and then you know what's to happen to you?" and was silent. Wolf punched his gun into Rid's side again. "Answer me, d—n you!" he commanded. "I don't know what you are going to do, but I do know that you'll get in trouble about it." Wolf laughed rancously. "Trouble that I got drag enough to clear me out of any kind of trouble? Just to ease your little mind I tell you something. You can tell me that I got drag enough to clear me. I've got the bulls on my payroll, and guys higher up than flatties and dicks take my dough, too. And what face? Why? They please in this man's face? A little matter like taking a bribe like you for a ride won't even make a ripple." "Maybe you think it won't," said the man who actually sought a means to avert whatever terrible lay in store for him, "but it will. My old man is one of the biggest cattle ranchers in Montana, and if anything happens to me he finds out, about it." "Oh yeah?" Wolf drawled madden- magic. "is that so?" Well, well, well, well. What I do. After we take you out here and blow your smart head off I gonna send a message to your rich panda telling him that if he don't give $5,000 to elephant friends, he will be killed. What do you think of that for an idea, big boy? "If it had not been for the knowledge that there was a gun poking in my head, you would try to throttle his tormentor, " I think it is a notated idea! " he exclaimed furiously. "Nobody but a cheap rat like you would think of it." "Well listen to our big steer bellow! Calling me a rat just because I can use my brains. Now isn't that something?" During their conversation the big street, the streets, the houses of which grew steadily shabby and further apart. As the streets became rougher, the machine bounced on and down, but driver did not slacken his mad face. Wolf spoke again. "Well, bozo, you suggestively with his weapon as he made his grim joke. "However, you don't need to worry because it's all real. REALIZES HIS PLIGHT The youth stiffened. He believed Say Bayer if you want the prompt, dependable relief that genuine Bayer Aspirin brings when people are in pain. When a cold has made you miserable, your head throbs, or you ache anywhere. What else is nearly as effective? Or safe? The tablet stamped Bayer is always the same and never hurts the heart. When you get the genuine, you remove all doubt! BAYER ASPIRIN that his captors were serious about killing him. From what Martin had told him, and from the warning given him by Alderman Durant, the conclusion that Wolf would actually carry out his evil designs, was borne home to him with a sickening sense of horror. His mind dacted over various expedients to escape, only to discard them with the dull knowledge that they were futile. He thought of Lyla, and knew a poignant sadness as he realized that he would probably never be able to escape him; that he would never see his father again—his big, gruff, hard father, who in spite of his harshness, loved his son dearly. What a blow it would be to the man who it was as active and tough as a man of 25. As the car jolted along, was remembering the beauty of the rolling Montana hills and serred mountains the blue of the clear SKIES, the friendship of the people. Not to send muscles for a supreme effort of some made him deserate. He gathered his Did you think you could get aw THE GUNS Did you think you could get away with slugging me, big boy? appeared to be a solid mass of undergrowth, but whom gave way to allow the car to penetrate a narrow, intensely dark, and totally deserted any mind." Wolf spoke hurriedly "He's just afraid he may have to take a rap for this-" "Wait a minute—walt a minute." Rod felt Wolf stir and sit slightly farther toward the edge of his seat. The man on Rod's other side leaned forward to put his hand on the manhe of the door. The car crept along as if it were coming to a halt in ankind. He didn't know what he was going to do, but he did know that he AFRO-AMERICAN was going to attempt some effort to save his life. They were racing along at seventy miles an hour over the smooth concrete of a highway. Back of them the myriad lights of the city grew dim. The cold air snatched at them with icy fingers when, suddenly the driver slapped on his brakes. The machine swayed to a slower pace, plunged on the concrete into what other instant. The youth decided that it was now or never, but suddenly the glare of a searchlight flashed into the car, and strange gruff voices began shouting, "Halt! Hands up! Don't any of you move!" Officer cursed savagely, as he tried vainly to shield his eyes from the blinding glare. Someone was opening the door, "Climb out!" a voice commanded. With raised hands the driver, Police officer, cut out of the machine. The bright light still blinded them. Rod felt hands searching through his pockets and patting a search of weapons. He heard Wolf's cry as someone evidently took his gun from him. "Who are you?" a stranger was demanding. "I'm Wolf Thomas, You better let me alone! Gimme my gun吧." "Sit up and be quiet, or I will tap you one," one of the strange voices answered. The light was snapped off, and the man surrounded by a group of men who were busily searching them. The search finished, two of the men went to the car and searched it, throwing the car into the water. "You'd better tell me who you are," Wolf fumed. "I know my rights." A man, evidently the leader of their group, on his own breast, displaying a gold badge. "We're federal agents—prohibition department, Mr. Wolf," he informed him directly. "And if youve got the car youre gonna go to headquarters." Seeing his chance, Od spoke up he was. He was taking heir for a ride. Mister. "Don't pay that double crossing rat way with slugging me, big boy? any mind," Wolf spoke hurriedly, "He's just afraid he may have to take a rap for this—" "Wait a minute—wait a minute," the government man ordered. He turned to Rod. "Now, what were you saying, young fellow?" "I said that this Wolf guy was taking me for a ride because I beat him up the other night." Rod explained breathlessly. "He said he was going to kill me when he got me out here—" "Don't listen to him." Wolf interrupted harsely. "I tell you he's just trying to get out of this." The men who had been searching the car returned to the group. "Didn' find any booze, chief," one of the announced. Gimme my rod back." Wolf demanded. "You guys are gonna get water, hot water about. I've got drag—" "Shut you mouth!" the leader of the agents grated terely. "and get that bus of yours and hit the concrete." Wolf's two henchmen started at once for their car as though they were relieved at the turn affairs had taken, but he was relieved by Grabbing Rod's arm he said with sham kindness. "Come on, kid. I'll forget your little stall. These guys aren't going to arrest you. Come on. Rod knocked his army away. "I'm not telling you the cried. "Do you think I am a fool!" He turned to the federal men. "Please let me go with you fellows, or else stay here. I'm not telling a story. I don't want to tell you." "I believe this kid is telling the truth," the leader of the agents said. "You stay here with us, he bade Rod. Then he took a threatening step toward me. From here, Mr. Tough Guy, or I give you something to yelp about." "I'll make you lose your job." Wolf muttered, as he slunk sulily toward his car. The man he addressed started toward me, and leaped into the machine, which began backing up with great rapidity. ROD RECEIVES AN OFF On the way back to the city Rod inquired about the Wolf to the federal agents. The leader laughed heartily at the recital. "I've heard of this Wolf before," and "the boys have killed off of him," boys have killed off of him. The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, March 22, 1930 him because he's got some sort of drag. However, I'm a special agent, and drag don't go with me, and if it does with any of the other fellows I don't know it. Our being out there on that little road tonight was a pure accident, though. We were laying for a gang of Italian rum runners when you fellows came along." "I'm sure glad you came along." Rod told him earnestly. "In about two minutes I guess those fellows would have shot me to death. But I'll bet they won't catch me napping again soon." "Say," said the leader of the agents suddenly, "how would you like to be an operative? You ought to make a good one, with those hard-hitting fists of yours." Rod laughed. "Oh, I'd never make a good agent because I don't much believe in the prohibition law. I think some a lot more harm than it has good." "A lot of folks feel that way," the officer told him, "but somebody's got a try to enforce it. And you could side with him, and the Sahara Side. You might even catch your friend Wolf, and kinda even up the score between you." "I'd rather not," Rod denured. "I don't want to bother Wolf, but if he wants to, I learned to handle a gun on the ranch, and I guess I can shoot as good as the next one, if it comes to that." "Well, don't go carrying a gun in this town," the agent advised. "Because is a serious offense. But if you change your mind let me know. Will we be glad to get a guy like you." "Thanks," Rod returned gratefully. "I sure will." By this time the agents' car had again entered the city. In a few minutes they had reached the downstairs. "Where do you want to get, out, buddy?" The driver asked Rod. "Right here," Rod told him as they swung down. Michigan. Boulevard. "I'll take a taxi from here." As he climbed out of the agents' car, the leader extended his hand. As he approached, he cared of yourself, kid, and if you ever get in a pinch, call our secret office. He placed a small white card in Rod's hand. "Thanks, I will. So long, and thanks for getting me," Rod the car moved away. A taxi pulled alongside of him. He waved it down, then climbed in and gave his address. Rod was growing light. "Gee whiz," Rod told himself aloud, "all I do is to get in scraps here and stay up all night, it seems." As the machine made its way across the street, Rod thought of Lyla—and was glad that she did not know of his narrow escape from death. In spite of the danger which he had, just expertly navigated, Rod girl and of what he must do in order, to stay in the city. If he intended to enter school he would soon have to find a job of some kind, as he had but little money to buy clothes, a father for help. And neither, he decided, would he allow Alderman Durant to get him a job. He'd always managed to get what he wanted by his own efforts, and he would keep on. The thought gave him courage. He pulled up in front of his rooming house, Rod peered cautiously up and down the street. Seeing no sign of anyone who looked like the Wolf or any of his gang, he climbed up and drove the driver up and up the stairs. In a few minutes he had disrobed and climbed into bed. At once he fell into a sound, dreamless sleep from which he seemed to be immediately awakened to find his friend, Martin, standing beside his bed shaking. "Roddy," Martin accused him, "it seem, like all I do is to come around and wake you up. Were you up again all night?" Rod grinned ruefully. "Yeah. I was up almost all night," he yawed, "Doing what?" Martin asked curiously. "Oh, you'd be surprised," Rod told him mysteriously. He decided that it would do no good for him to tell Martin of his experience of the previous night. “I probably would,” the lawyer commented dryly. “But that’s got nothing do with my errand here now. It’s three-thirty of a bright spring afternoon, and the Jew I told you about, Mr. Kling, is waiting in my office to talk to you about making a prizefighter of you. He insisted that I come and get you, and he’s sitting up there now chewing cigars into bits for fear somebody else may sign you up before he does.” “Oh, what the heck!” Rod snorted. “I’m no priefighter and I don’t want to be one. Tell him to go wash his neck. I’m going back to sleep!” “Now listen, Rod,” his friend insisted. “You know that I wouldn’t be chasing over here after you for an ordinary guy. This Kling is worth lots of money. He’s managed three champions, and he is in a position to help you make a lot of money. It wouldn’t hurt you any to talk it over with him. You know nowadays boxing is a recognized business, and it’s no disgrace to be in the ring. You can’t lose anything by at least talking with the man.” "Gee, you must be his agent, on something." Rod observed. "You talk like my becoming a prizefighter matters to me." It does. "Mr. told him simply. 'When I saw you tapping those toughes over the other night, if dawned on me that if there was anything you could do it was tight. Why not cap it?' Why. By this time, you have money to enter school and a lot more." "Do you really think so. Martin?" Rd ask'd more seriously. "Nothing beats a trial but a fail- ure." Martin quoted. "Well. I'll talk with him, anwax." Rod consented, as he climbed out of the car. "Where did you save you was the last nigh?" Martin asked, with seeming casualness. "Why. I was out to Lyla's." Rod sat: incipently. "All night?" Martin demanded incredulously. "Of course not! I left her place about twelve." "Oh, just out walkine around the stars." Rod told him airly. "There were no stars out last night." Martin pointed out. Martin said, "Say what are you trying to do—find out what anger is." Rod asked have, presented anger, "Can't a chap have even a little secret?" "Oh well, if you don't want to tell" Martin said, if you增强 his shoulders. "You could at least snap into those clothes of yours." "I'm ready, that is, all except putting on a tie." Rod placated. t Martin's office they found a short, plump, swarthy, keen-eyed man awaiting them. He was dressed in a gray suit of obviously expensive material, and he wore his clothes with the air of a man who has been used to good things a long time. "Oh," he tried smilingly, as the two entered the office, as did him before, with you, eh? Martin introduced them, and Kling at once led Rod into Martin's private office. "Come with me, my youngest brother. We go some talking to do you and me, eh?" Seated behind Martin's desk, Kling ed keenly at Rod for an instant. Apparently satisfied, he offered Rod a caer. "Thanks, but I don't smoke," Rod told him. "That's fine, that's very fine," Kling observed, as he lit one for me and smoked, but try and get them not to Glad you don't! But say, Herrick how much were you drinking the other night when you put on the fight with those buns at the Swamp HQ? "I guess maybe I talk like a Sunday School teacher," Rod said, "but I hadn't been drinking anything, beckon me." "Fine! Kling cried joyously." "He doesn't drink and smoke, and he hits like a heavyweight already, and on his feet he is like a featherweight!" on the arm. "Boy, you are what I have been looking for a long time. How much do you weigh?" he asked suddenly. "Oh, about 165. I guess" Rod told him. "A natural middle weight!" Kling elaculated. "Ever box any?" "A little. No very much. guess." Kling assumed you that. "Kling assured him. "In fact, I rather take a good boy who doesn't know much about boxing than to try to unlearn a 'chump' who thinks For a few minutes he was silent, peering up at the ceiling. "Well, how can I do that?" he asked, with seeming indifference. "I'm not sure I want to be a boxer." "I'm not sure I want to be a boxer," Rod demurred. "Not want to be a boxer!" Kling echoed in amazement. "Whyeller. I could make you a rich man if you got the stuff in you! Thousands of dollars you know your stuff. And let me tell you, it's not every fellow that I'll sigh. to be in my boxing stables!" "How soon would I start to make money?" Rod asked. "Before he ever has a fight he must be a bit tougher. Kling cried, but a tiny twinkle in his eyes betrayed him. I tell you. Herrick. We will sign a contract where we soil forty-sixy. He paused to re-read the contract. The latter remained silent, he added, "Oh, we! I make it seventy-thirty." "What are you talking about?" Bod asked, puzzled. "Oy!" yelped King with a mock triggi-gesture. "I should have kept forty-sixty. What I mean is, young feller, that when you have a fight you get seventy per cent of the money and I get thirty." "Oh, you do much when I do all the fighting," Rod asked pratically. "That's a fair question, and I tell you." King explained. "You see, when a man has good fighters, money and friends in the game all over, you have to get good fighters for his boys. I have to earn my money, don't worry, and usually I give my fighters sixty per cent and take forty for my end, and its worth it. I'm telling you." "I see," Rod said, still slightly puzzled. "Well, shall we make up a contract?" King pressed. "Oh. I guess so, if you'll let Martin make up the contract." "Already, he's clever." Kling accused. "But I'll let your friend make it up, although I wouldn't take advantage of you, even if my lawyer called." "Come here and make us up a nice contract. Your young friend is going to be a champion!" The contract which Martin drew up brief and earn simple and afford each of the principals protection. Martin read it to both of them, and explained it to Rod. When he had finished, Kling arose. "Well, young fellow, now we got to understand you, and understand you're from a cattle ranch. How about calling you 'Cowboy Herrick?' "Doesn't make any difference to me, but still slightly dazed by the proceedings. "How about 'Young Steer' for a ring name?" Martin suggested sly. Kling grinned appreciatively, but said Herrick, "I'm not Herrick." He turned to Rod: "And now Cowboy," he said briskly, "my car is down stairs. Suppose we go down town to the gym and see what you know." "That big jaw of yours busted." Martin gibed to his friend as the two left the office. "Nobody has busted it yet." Rod threw back at him. The trip down town was accompanied up a pair of me too clean stairs and into a large, barn-like room where a number of perspiring figures were going through various exercises ropes, shadow boxing, and actually exchanging blows in one of the several rings in the place. Kling led Rod to a dressing room where he was sitting off his garments. As his manager saw the wide, muscled muscles which tapered down to a thin, muscle-curvated stomach, he whistled in amazement. He exclaimed admirer. "Where did you get a, build like that?" Out of a locker he took a pair of tights, and a pair of light winged shoes. He then looked at the latter, had dummed them, he led him out onto the floor where in a pair of none too clean stairs. "He Kelv, come here a minute, will out" Kelly trotted over obediently. "This is my new fighter, a middleweight like you. Kelly." Kling told him. "and I want you to box a round or with so him we can see what he was thinking that middleweight in the Kling stabbed is a plenty. Then he enriched a little baleful at Rod. "Give on some on. big bow" he commanded. "and come on in the ring. Till see just how good you are!" END OF CHAPTER THREE "That is Rod's success as a boxer. Dee he shows it in his trial.

CHARLES was terribly grouchy that morning. A fine, cold-rain had ben falling since midnight, and as it was not late enough in the fall for our furnace to be going, the breakfast room was a little uncomfortable. I glanced up now and then as he impatiently tore through his newspaper and tried to eat grape fruit at the same time. "What's the matter, dear?" I asked as sweetly as I could. "Nothing!" he growled, looking blackly over the morning Times. "Oh, yes there is." I insisted. "Please tell me."

I wished so much that there was something I could do. I knew they were before hand. I might have been abl to interest some of my father's friends in Louisville. But Charles bad never been in the habit of telling me anything about his business. He was and is the old fashioned type of husband: believes the wife's place is behind him, and only be interested in their business affairs. Moreover, he is insanely jealous. I believe he is one of the most jealous men in the world. He is always in the way during the ten years of our married life that I care only for him, he continues to be jealous and ready to flare up when he is short, dark and serious; a good provider and an exceptionally dutiful husband, but he has annoyed me terribly at times when he never be seen with another man, for he has seriously warned me against it. It is all very silly of course, because he is incapable in this day and time for a wife to have some acquaintances and friends among the men of the community. This is 1930 not 1830, but Charles doesn't seem I can understand his jealousy, of course. When he married me I was the belle of Louisville and considered one of the best members of the community. My friends assure me that after ten years of married life I have lost little of my comeliness. I am very fair, with dark brown hair, large eyes, fine smooth skin, and am still quite slender and active. Charles worships me. And I always vowed to do nothing to arouse his interest. It is thrilling to be loved by a man like that, but then, it is also sometimes annoying. Enter Mr. Dilworth. Greatness, somewhat relieved by taking me into his confidence, had gone to business. I decided to go down to town to shop. I love to stroll down the streets and walk along the stiles in department stores and look at the multitude of gorcous things on display, to make purchases and be able to say in a lordly manner, "Please charge it to me," and "Please deliver that tomorrow." I had just left Milner's when whom should I bump into but Clarence Dillworth. I hardly recognized him after eleven years, but nothing, nothing, unpinned-looking than he was when he ardently paid court to me in Louisville, before I married Charles, what with his aristocratic compassivity and his elegant voice and elegant manners. I almost fainted with surprise. "Betty Foster!" he gasped, gripping my hand and gazing down admiringly at me, where ever in the window you been? "Not Betty Foster any more," I chided him, "but Mrs. Charles Bundle. You must know that I married." "Oh, yes. Of course." He added, still holding my glove hand. There was a tone of regret in his voice and a Aci Acid Stomach Excess acid is the common cause of indigestion. It results in pain and sourness about two hours after eating. The quick corrective is an alkali which neutralizes acid. The best corrective is Phillips Milk of Magnesia. It has remained standard with physicians in the 50 years since its invention.

"Milk of Magnesia" has been the U. S. Registered Trade Mark of The Charles H. Phillips Chemical Company and its predecessor, Charles H. Phillips, since 1875. "It doesn't seem eleven years have passed," he said reminiscent. "To me it was only yesterday that we liked him. next to my husband, between us." "Let's go down the street a piece and have a little lunch together for old time's sake" he suggested, noting the awkwardness of our position right in front of the swinging doors of Milner's. Without a thought, a agreeable smile came out, the fine rain and mist had made way for the warming rays of the sun and already the pavement was drying. The city smelled so clean and washed. The window cisplays seemed more, and more beautiful, and pedestrians more cheerful, the automobiles more shiny, the noises of the city like a giant symphony. Arm and arm we tripped lightly down to Castles, a cozy town with a few shops and bowers about the tables give that privacy: s. conducive to romance. "Gee, but it's good to sit opposite you once again," he remarked ardently. "I'll be here often thought about you when I was in Texas—wondering where you were and what you were doing. I was too married, and then I didn't know how Bundle would take it." Oh, her 'terribly jealous' I said, thinking for the first time that even the lunch with another man. "If he was to see me here with you there would be an awful scene." For being jealous, Clarence bantered, "as beautiful as you are. But he needn't worry about me: I'll only be here for a day or two. I ran up to a bus a mi While we talked, I couldn't help having a feeling of unease. I was doing wrong, according to my husband, because I like it if he should find out that I had had tea with Clarence Dilworth, of all men, but then, he would never know. That at least was comforting. Clarence Castle, sitting there with an old sweetheart I didn't see for seven years. What tricks Fate plays! One can never tell what may happen. And Clarence Castle, life worth living; that presents the variety without which life is drab and spiceless. "What are you doing here?" The woman is doing her husband started me from my musing. He was standing opposite us, glaring mottily down upon us. I was struck dumb. I tried to say, "I was terrified, voice, failed me, as first." Terrified, I glanced from Clarence to Charles. The former was calm and collected, my husband was plainly furious, his mouth twitching, opening and closing, his eyes burning. "Charles," I finally managed to blurt out. "this is Mr Clarence Dilworth of Louisville, Kentucky, a child of the Kentucky Motor Company, one of the leading Negro businesses. He's just in town to close a business deal. We just met in front of Milner's and in here to have a lunch and a chat." Like a flash my husband's demeanor or changed. It was so amazing that I was swept practically off my feet. He was so happy with the values and he held cut his hand eagerly. "By joy! he almost chorted. 'I'm certainly glad to see you Mr. Dilworth. Been expecting you for some time. You walked into the Progressive Taxicab Company and Garage, you know." "Well, well, well" loomed Clarence. "What a coincidence. What is meant? I cried. Tell me something, you two." "You see, honey," Charles explained, seating himself at the table. "Mr. Dilworth's company is going to buy my garage. You know I was telling him. Clarence I was about it this morning? . . ." "And," Clarence interrupted. "I didn't know that your husband was the head of the Progressive Taxable Bank and didn't know that I was general manager of the Kentucky Motor Company. You see, my company is going to do business here and negotiated with him. My garage — pair shop and taxicabs. "Oh! "I smiled broadly. "And to think that Charles was about to jump on you, Clarence, to try to steal the car. Oh, I'm just a 'jealous fool.' Charles confessed. "Let's forget it." But I couldn't forget that look on his face when he came in and saw me with Clarence Dilworth. So I'm go anywhere with another man again.

The Greeks too, were minus Wheatley and Joe Jackson, but Dennis Simpson and Simon's recoveries off the backboard of Seay and Ward's skills, proving effective. The former Howard scored once from the field and made good on his two chances from the foul line, and Ward to a long basket through half. The Greeks presented a super defense, the Post scores coming from long range shooting, Jackson, Aldrich and Seay, scoring from bound, and the Posts gained 5 of 10.

From the start of the game to the finish Lanky Jones and his assistants were not to be denied, and while the white basketers furnished some of the stiftest opposition the Methodists have faced this season, the local marksmen proved of little avail, one Coach Hurt's boys got started. Play 7: Close The "Babe" of the Jones family started the scoring business early by sticking the spheres in the bucket, but before the echo from the happing strings had failed they called out. The score then saw-saw with Wheatley Spencer, Stricker and Rosen doing yeomen work, until the count counted at 9-all. It was Lanky Jones, however, who with a free throw and a field goal, put the Bears in front of the Rangers. That was a signal to the scoring spree and with Spencer and Wheatley counting from the floor and from the foul line, the college boys' score mounted to 17 while the Alerts remained stationary at Bears Lead at Half Foul shots by Striker and Rosen and a field goal by Richy, aided in boosting the white boys' score to 14 before the half ended. A difficult double decker by Spencer, who was experiencing an ankle injury, loved by the zebra shot from past by Rap Wheatley just as the whistle blew for half time. Wheatley Sparkles Wheatley was not only piling up points, but was making certain that the Alerts kept the ball out of the basket. Time and time again he leaped into the basket and approached the form of his team mate, Lanky Jones, in handling the ball. From the foul line he was almost uncanny, tossing in an even half dozen throws. The second half found the blood-thirsty Bears running to the basket to tell it, they had pulled up to a substantial lead, never to be headed. So tight was the Bears' defense that the Alerts were forced to try most of their shots from long range, and they were out up to their high standard exhibited in the first game of the series. Game Rough Both teams played without substitution, the personal foul rule being waived at the request of the Alerts. The game, consequently was of the rough and tumble variety. Wheatley led in scoring with 10 points, followed closely by Spencer. Lanky Jones and Babeuses were with 11 points. Rosen and Stricker, with 7 points each, were high scorers for the Alerts.

Contrary, it is the belief of the wise men of Broadway, that the Kid is due for a bad break at this moment. What prompts this belief is unexplainable as the little chaps have fought going great guns and Ridgway is not great shakes as an opponent for him. More interest is centered in the Wolgast-Black semi-final to the main event because both of the little chaps have fought their way to the top of the tournament. Bill has made some very favorable impressions in his recent appearances in local rings and fans are counting on him to score a win over his opponent, although Wolgast slouched himself. However, it is the determination of that Bill will have to step some to win a decision over Wolgast.

Godfrey Hampered by Fear is the Belief of Jack Johnson Former Champ Thinks Gawge Could Lick Primo Carnera Despite His Fears MISSED HIS CHANCES Muldoon's Ban on Godfrey Called Unfair The sudden boom in the stock of George Godfrey, the Leiperville "Big Truck," started by a New York daily, has resulted in columns after columns being written on the merits and demerits of Sir Jeems Dougherty's pet ringster. Jack Johnson, asked by Ed Sullivan, Sports Editor of the New York Graphic, to pick the winner in a proposed Godfrey-Carnera fight, is reported as follows: Godfrex Not Game "Godfrey is too smart for him," said Jack, "but Godfrey isn't the gamen fellow in the world, and Cararner might scare him out of the ring if the big Italian rushed right out at him. "But the kind of a fighter Td bet on in a tight spot—he's too timmid for Lil Artha, nosirie. "As I've told you before," continued Johnson, "you'll rarely find a colored fighter bent out of shape when it's scary when it's chucked in against a white man." Has Inferiority Complex "Godfrey, born in Alabama, was brought up from boyhood with the idea in mind that a white man is his master, and I don't think he has ever shaken off that heritage. I think that the fact he was born in Alabama accounts for the poor fights he turns in against white men. He seems to be afraid of them, can't seem to shake off the inferiority complex the Southern whites implant in a race. The first big hit was Jack Renault at the old Pioneer, was won by Renault before the thing started. Leo P. Flynn, Renault's manager, knowing that Godfrey had just come up out of the South, went over to Godfrey's corner and raised Cain because Godfrey had some Grease never got over the score Flynn gave him, and the fact that his white handlers failed to show up from a drunken party only made it worse for him. Renault knocked him out, as for I recollect. Now this Carnarvon bought a newspaper boy gives him credit, for being "All that big fellow needs is some coaching. He is fast, he can punch, he can kick. He proved he was dead game at Philadelphia when he continued, although his eye provided him with an advantage. He had capitol to quit a hard fight. Should Whin Carrera "On form, Godfrey, fighting for eight years, should beat Garnera, who has been fighting for two years, but, as I say, Godfrey is a bit too timid for the right whip him just by outbulling him. "However, if I were managing Garnera, I wouldn't rush an inexperienced youngster into such a match. Let Schmeling or Campo fight Godfrey Johnson patted his carbry into place, adjusted his cane and climbed behind the wheel on his gray sports roadster. Say George Is Through To Jess McMahon, Ebbets Field promoter, Godfrey is "washed out" for him. "My mind, the first good fighter who goes into the ring with Godfrey will win off by himself. That Godfrey fellow is just about ready for the cleaners. He has never a fight," he said. He has been two years since he fought Riske. "The two-year, lay-off mightn't hurt him if he had kept in shape, but he would have plenty of drinking and has been living the life of Reilly. He'll be duck soup for the first good heavy exercise, enough to go into the ring with him." During Jack's stay in Tla Juana, he met Tom Carey, a one-time candidate for mayor of Chicago. They were frequently together and largely through his benign influence Jack consented to surrender himself and serve his prison sentence. Jack realized that under no other terms could he enter America, so he left Tla Juana bound for Chega. South Carolina Teams Pry Off Baseball Lid in Close Game ORANGEBURG, S. C.-The Claflin Panthers baseball team towed out Haines Institute, of Augusta, here in the face of a stiff March breeze to the tune of a second score, the score scored the first marker in the second inning, this was followed shortly by a second score when Haines singled to center field scoring a runner from third. In the last half of the sixth inning the teams were tied 3-3. Haines came in the seventh inning and broke the tie making the score 3-4 in favor. Clafin in the last of the eighth, scored three runs changing the score to 11-10. Clafin and Haines came back with one more score. Batteries for Clafin: Robinson and Sidney Sheffield and Wilson. For Halnes: Xingong and Mason. Hearst Papers Take up Cudgel for Gawge NEW YORK, (ANP)—Edd Sullivan, sports editor of the New York Evening Graphic, has turned the light on the Daily Mirror's championing of George Godfrey's cause with a most pertinent query. Says "If the Mirror, or rather the Hearst publications, are so interested in seeing that George Godfrey gets a square deal in the heavyweight championship elimination, he easily settles at point by insisting that Godfrey be placed on the annual Milk Fund fight at the Polo Grounds in June." Which, as Mr. Sullivan says, will be one way for the Hearst paper to be a break, now that a Hearst publication has taken up the cudgels in his behalf. Godfrey Had Chances Mr. Suillan, however, has this to say of Big Gawge: "It is mighty unfortunate that colored heavyweight like Harry Wils and Godfrey are avoided and side-steped we fightings day are left behind them. "Whether or not they are great fighters is immaterial—the fact remains that they rarely have a chance to prove it, because the whites duck them. "Godfrey, however, is mainly to blame for the lack of progress on his part. "In 1926 when Godfrey was at his prime, he met Jack Sharkey at Boston in a fight that was decided strictly on its merits, and Sharkey, then a outfielder, outfielder in a savage body fight. "In 1928, given another great chance against Johnny Risko of Cleveland and, although I thought Godfrey was entitled at least to a draw, the fact remained that a giant of Godfrey's knockout if he was a GREAT, heavyweight No Right to Bar Him Regardless however, of the fighting merits or demurders of George Godfrey, the man of sinlessness or loic to William Muldowhon, Muldowhon the Negro giant in New York state. When an inferior grade of white heavyweights such as we have today are allowed to work at their trade and get away with everything short of murder, certainly there can be no reasonable objection to the entrance of Godfrey into a New York ring. But this is not enough difficulty getting a fight without the New York Commish further handicapping him for no better reason than an old gentleman's personal distaste. Trenton 'Y' Team Tops Atlantic City, 24-15 Lions Humble Tigers in District Semi-final, Game TRENTON, N. J.—Rex Lions of the Trenton Y.M.C.A. upset the dope by severely trouncing Atlantic City Y." Tigers, New Jersey Junior League, beat the game being the semi-final in the annual state tournament conducted by Bordentown. Atlantic City started scoring with a foul goal. Countered and each made a field goal, the visitors stuck to the ball and ended 4-3 in favor of the shore boys. In the second stanza Rex forged ahead to close the half at 11 to 7. In the last canto the green and white flashes from the seaside tire score the score at 15, but the Lions comed back with a terrific barrage of shots, ran up to 24 points. SETS NEW JUMP RECORD DETROIT — Willis W. Ward, all-around track star of Northwestern High School, here set, a new record in the high school six feet, 4 1-2 inches at the indoor track and field championships for local high schools in the Central High School district. The new record smashes an 18-year old record. Ward, who is a junior, also tied a ten-year old mark of .04-seconds in the 30-year high hurdles. Jack landed at Joliet, Illinois, to avoid the great demonstration which had been arranged for him in Chicago. Newspaper reporters, photographers, and amusement promoters flocked about him and invaded his quarters in prison in order to interview him.

Joy reigned in the Douglass High School camp, Friday, as Coach Gibson's Ducks, playing inspired basketball, rumbled the Armstrong High School team of Washington by a 30-22 score in the final game of the local scholastic season. The victory was a sweet one for the locals, averaging a drubbing received at the hands of the Washington lads earlier in the season. Because of that loss and two defeats at the hands of the Dunbar High School tossers of Washington, the local basketers were only able to finish third in the South Atlantic standing, Arm, strong and Dunbar finishing first and second in the order named. Entering the game, the underdog, Douglass started off like a whirlwind, and the regulars, who played the entire game without a break, felt as least as the first quarter ended 7-6 in their favor. Uncanny gunning by Sims and Rawlings, Douglass center and left forward, respectively, increased the Douglass score to at his highest, Armstrong called to eight points. At the beginning of the third quarter, Wallace, visiting a agent, went on a winning spree, sinking two shots before the Ducks could realize what had happened. But Simms batted in a pair of two-pointers to make things even. Dyson contributed to the victory, but the third count the count, read, Douglass, 23; Armstrong, 15. Armstrong Spurts A spurt by Armstrong in the final period, during which Dale, Wallace and Lee found the basket, brought the score to 27-22 and it looked as if the Techmen might head their local rivals. Contributions by Smms, from the floor and by Dyson from the charity mark, were made by Douglass made 8 of 10 foul tries, and Armstrong made four of seven.

CHOCOLATE COMING JOE WALCOTT GOING CHOCOLATE COMING JOE WALCOTT GOING Writer Contrasts Former "Barbados Demon" With Cuban Flash NEW YORK, (ONS)—Joe Walcott, once the wetterweight champion of the world, and now half blind, is a porter at Madison Square Garden.

MORGIE THE The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, March 22, 1930 Hear Me Talkin' To Ya Hear Me Talkin' To Ya By BILL GIBSON CLAP YOUR calloused mitts, mates, for I have it on good authority that a truce has been effected between Wake Forest and North Carolina basketball teams concerning officials, which some misjudged scrubber tried to start. The battle ended before it began, because a definite agreement has been effected whereby athletic officials in the two cities will hold a powwow soon, to iron out any differences that may exist in the inter- This pillar, for one, is glad that this sensible way has been chosen, and sees in the move, one that should bear fruit. When Douglass defeated Armstrong here last Friday the Ducks unleashed a brand of basketball that has seldom been seen in these parts. The locals were almost unbeatable on that occasion. After the game, officials of the two schools, discussing the contest, brought out one or two points that might be interesting. No kick was raised regarding the two officials used, but the Washington team felt that their team suffered because, as they were forced to shift their style of play to cope with the Douglass players. The locals, they pointed out, played a game that allowed more contact than they are accustomed to having in the capital, and as a result their smaller sized sharpshooters had to be replaced by larger players who were not as skillful. They did not include buckets, and they did not game not as rough, they contended. Armstrong would have had an opportunity to let their smaller stars do a little more shining. The Washington men admitted that their players played just as rough as the Baltimoreans, but would have rather played a tamer game, with the opportunity of using more technically technical officiating exists in Washington, while the more liberal style prevails in Baltimore, capital teams will always win in Washington and vice versa. There is a fallacy, however, in this reasoning when one considers that Dunbar, a team that has also won a game from Armstrong, defeated the Ducks here and in Washington and as far as the South Atlantic Conference goes, has won the title. Certainly there is no alibi here. It is true, nevertheless, that a difference does exist in interpretation in the two cities, not a matter of cheating for one team, hardy, but a matter of difference that affects both teams. In checking over the score of the Armstrong-Douglas game here, it is observed that the Ducks made good on eight of ten tries in a foul line, while the Technemen were good on seven tries. The Ducks were better in field goals to nine for Armstrong. This writer, for one, takes little stock in alibis, and in every instance possible makes an honest attempt to get both sides of any controversy that arises, and he is usually successful. The joining of Washington and Baltimore officials should mean something to all concerned and should have one-hundred per cent attendance. THIS MATTER of basketball also brings to this department's attention the fact that the Douglass High School team will not be in the national scholastic competition which takes place at Hampton this Friday and Saturday, all because there does not seem to be enough interest on the part of those in high places to go to the School Board and have them resigned or modify the silly ruling the local teams from being out of school on Fridays. There is no necessity to go into a recital of the ruling, which aimed to curb trips by local white teams, that have plenty of competition within the city's confines, hurts Douglas most because there is no other high school in the city where he can play. The interest manifested by the principal of Armstrong High School in Washington, who in addition to lending his moral support to the athletic teams of that school, has even contributed from his personal finances and has devised ways and means of obtaining other finances to encourage athletics at his school, it is not hard to visualize what might be done right here in Balaam. The Ducks would have a mighty fine chance to cop the big price or at least one of the prizes in the national competition, were they allowed to go to Hampton. But no, they must stay cooped up in the Monumental City when athletes of other schools history, and at the same time, have trouble advertising their receptions and cities. If anyone believes that by keeping these boys at home they will be encouraged to spend all Saturday at the library, in the laboratories, or with their heads buried between the covers of books that they might be proficient in their receptions on Monday, he has no doubt that the college is suggesting that influential citizens, interested in the physical as well as the mental development of our youth, organize a group and petition the authorities to modify their decision. It is highly probable that these officials will not commit handicap, handicap or local schoolboys and would assist in remedying the condition. Certainly, any move in changing the ruling must come from an interested group, and not from the School Board. It is much then, for a group to change its petition? Maybe they support it, but whatever they are, they have this writer's support in putting them into effect. person's support. This matter is certain to come up again, so why wait any longer? HARDYL had the ink on last week's column dried, before the postman brought to this desk information about girl basketball, and the girl's scriblier barely touched the desk. In writing of the local situation, so well are the thoughts expressed that they are reproduced here in full. The writer is well known to Baltimoreans as a graduate of Douglass High School under the principalship of his father, a Howard grad and at one time profession at Yale University. In Baltimore, James D. Johnson, Lloyd Clark, Thaddeus Peck, Bernard Webb, Charles Carey, Avon Davis, Thomas Jones, all of whom through their interest in athletics for girls and boys, have written their names in capital letters in the history of Baltimore. Here you are: Mr. Bull Gibson, interested in reading your remarks concerning Girl's basketball in your column in the issue of March 15. It seems to me that the sport writers could and should do much more to encourage the development of athletic competition among the girls of our schools; and for boys of our schools, it would be valuable to suppose that they would contribute to the growth and education of our girls.

Advancing points; a cumul It is my opinion that the loss of the interest in basketball has been due to the fact that most of our girls' teams, for some strange reason, insist upon using boys' rules. Since girls lack the speed of boys, the game is more crowdy rather than of skill. It is far too strenuous for the average girl. Instead of bringing out the finer qualities in girls, it stresses those qualities which we already find too conspicuous in our girls. The playing of basketball under boys' rules is strictly forbidden for girls of high school and by every organization. The rules are similar to the rules in girls. Probably nowhere in this country would it be possible to find in any of the white schools a girls' team using boys' rules. I have talked with several white coaches and they find it exceedingly strange that our teams even think of using the boys' rules. For three years, here have been playing basketball. As we have learned and because of the lack of a qualified teacher, I have coached during that period. Until this year it has been very difficult to get games. Even now, most of the teams we play use girls' rules only against us. As a concession, we play the two division instead of the three division game. It is surprising what a fast team can do. It gives protection to a girl since it reduces to a minimum, the personal contact, the pulling and tagging so common to boys' rules. This year we have a schedule of threeteen games. The enthusiasm of the girls should be enough to start a campaign. Our school for abandonment of basketball by boys' rules and the development of a game suitable for girls.

Adoption of Professor Hart's plan, it is felt, would reduce the possibility of Professor Hart to a minimum, since it is not one of the teams will cross the opponent's 20-yard line.

COURT TOURNEY Goal, Coming in Last Ten Seconds, Gives 23-21 Victory Over Douglass LOSERS WERE FAVORED Third Period Ends in Tie Score INSTITUTE, W. Va.—Trailing until the last forty minutes of play, the Gary High School cagers flashed a spurt to nose out the Douglass High School team of Huntington by a 23-21 score, here Saturday, the game giving the victors the state scholastic championship. The occasion was the annual school boy tournament sponsored by West Virginia State College, and the winners, exceptionally tall youngsters, furnished a brilliant climax to a tournament that was full of upsets. For the first three minutes of play, both teams were scoreless, after which Thompson for Gary sneaked down the sidelines to uncork a marker. Glass for Huntington followed suit by looping a two pointer through the mashes. The period ended with Douglass came back with a fighting spirit that just couldn't be stopped by any one else. Garey light that all shots were forced to be tried from the center of the floor. The sizing passes, excellent floor work and accurate shooting. Spray Garey and Glass, and McClain for Huntington were the thrills for the second period. The half ended with Gary leading, 12-11. Score Is Tied Those lanky boys of "Butch" Brown (the former grid star of State), were raring when they opened up the second half with a sensational brand of basketball, while Douglass seemed to be laboring under a superiority complex, having been touted as the best team of the tournament. Both teams were scoring in a neck and neck procedure until the quarter ended in a Thrilling Finish Phillips Wins Ohio Title CHICAGO, (ANP)—All the glory and all the praise of a frenzied group of followers were showered upon the litch and agile lads of Wendell High School. High school afternoon wagons defeated Morgan Park, 20-19, in the finals for the heavy-weight championship of the Public School League, after forty minutes of uphill playing of the most hardworking. There are no official colored or white high schools in this city, but Wendell Phillips, because of its location, is ninety or more per cent colored from outside, and all of its basketball players are colored.

Golden Gloves Champ Los First Bout But Won Other Chancy Crain, Lightweight, Walked from Hammond, Ind.. to Chicago QUIT JOB TO FIGHT Half Starved, He Fights Just the Same CHICAGO—Chancy Crain, lightweight champion in the Chicago Tribune's Golden Gloves boxing-championship, who will meet the New York winner in the inter-city championship competition beginning here Wednesday, walked his way into the title. The little brown-eyed, smiling boy, with a soft voice and manner that belies any angelistic tendencies is a native Illinois, and owes his present good fortune to the fact that he stole away from his uncle's home, in Mounds, Ill. one morning last August, to seek his fortune in Chicago as a boxer. Rode Freight Train Chancey, according to Howard Barry, white, of the Tribute staff, hopped aboard a freight train, that August morning, bound for Chicago, and a state box tournament of which he had read in his home town paper. Mr. Barry tells us: "All went well until the train came to a junction at which Chancey's car was shunted off to dust with the day of the morning of the day of the tournament the boy found himself in Hammond, Ind, with no money to buy quick transportation to Chicago. "According to the announcement he had tucked away in his pocket, the contestants would be required to weigh in at 7 o'clock that evening in a stadium at the corner of 22d and Kostner, so Chancey a few crackers, tightened his shoe laces and staked out foot. All would be locked without another shoe to eat, and just as the boys were weighing in, he arrived at his destination. "Chaney was half starved and almost exhausted by this time, but he was able to make up his plans. So he weighed in, fought three rounds to a draw and lost the decision in the fourth round. That was last and last time he ever was beaten. Quits His Job After that Chancy obtained a job as office boy at the Lawndale gymnasium and spent his spare time taking part in the win, including of which he won, including two with Roosevelt Haines, former Golden Gloves champion. There then came a morning when he entered the toilets to find Chancy at his usual place. But on the desk there was a note. In it the little colored boy thanked his employer for the kindness he had shown, but said he was homesome for his old home. Mounds. Lured Back to Ring That was early in November, and for two months Chancy dropped entirely out of sight. Then he joined Tribute's Golden Gloves tournament reawakened the old desire for battle. Chancy came back, recovered his job and began to train. Before entering the tournament he had engaged in only ten bouts, six of which he had won by knockouts and three by knockouts. And of the Golden Gloves tournament he had added six more victims to his string, three by knockouts and three by decisions. Every one of his opponents had gone to the That's how Chancy Crain's potent wallop took over the game, greater fighter and won him the title.

A Column for Modern Housewives A few days ago, I witnessed a style show of lingerie on living models. When the manager announced that she would show lingeries or dresses the afternoon, I naturally wondered "and how." But after a few minutes of display I saw the light. The dainty flapper, the fat dame, the necklace, the tiny toot, the fifty sports woman, and the perfect thirty-six alike wore her garment fashioned and fitted as only an expert tailor can. It mattered not the shape nor size of the body, was cared for and the fitting in no way interfered with the short and ease of the new models. All kinds of gymnastics were enacted in snug fitting undies with "nary a rip." The majority of these were one-piece, assuring perfect fit with the short, and the shirt it must be tailored, draw-strips are passe. Many of the LENTEN S Market Hours: 7:30 A.M. to 6:30 P.M.

Underall One particular garment — I call it an "underal" because it is all one needs under the shirt, a brassier, a vest, a bloomer, so combined and tailored to as make one garment. It was the most beautiful, yet serviceable thing I have ever seen. The garment was too big, the skirt kicked and stretched you could see there was no binding, cutting not rubbing anywhere, but perfect freedom of the entire body. The garment was too boned and the dresses were detachable. It opened on the right side from chest to knee, and the lower end was finished in three styles — band, elastic or flexible knee three inches above the knee. The colors ranged from black to the sky blue, tan, however, being the most desired for spring wear. Materials were principally rayon and glove silk, yet there were some cotton materials for summer wear. Gowns The silhouette has reached the night gown also, and the modes in the dresses are trimmed satins and crepe de chines, in the pastel banana heart, pearl lustre, blush, and turquoise seemed to be the night gown but folk about to retire for the night. There were endless types of pa- jamas in silks, satins, non-run rayon dainty prints in sheer cotton fabrics; buttoned, piped, and fitted to make a comfortable, chic for sleeping, lounging or beach.

Accessories are small but big in their importance for ensembling with spring suits, and should be carefully chosen to match. Shoes are preferably black, dull or shiny finish, strap shoes, or flats. The stockings match the gloves and are of the new shades that brighten March days. Gloves Gloves are the slip-ons of fabric in six-button length, that wrinkle at the wrist. They are pastel beiges, gray and white. Bags The tailored bag is of calf or Morocco, to match the suit.

Raw, Fresh Fruits are Best-Eat more fresh fruit every day. There are many from which to choose: Apples, Apricots, Bananas, Berries, Cherries, Grapefruit, Grapes, Melons, Oranges, and Pears. Give infants and young children only such fruits as are advised by physician. All fresh fruits cost less in season Even though the baby is breast-feed, plump and rosy, the vitamin D should be supplied. Plenty of good sunshine on bare skin will help supply this vitamin and lessen the need for cod-liver oil. The skins will well, washed, of such fruits as apples, pears and plums valuable for all except young children and individuals with poor digestion. These skins are excellent for mastication, for the natural cleaning of the teeth and for roughage. Bananas should be eaten only when ripe. Bananas are sweet, when ripe. Skin is dark brown; the fruit itself, however, should be firm. When fruits are cooked, cook long enough to make tender, in a very small quantity of water tightly covered. Use very little sugar; add it just before removing from the fire. Only half the usual quantity is necessary to obtain the desired sweetness. For the Cook There are so many fresh vegetables in the market, it is a real joy to prepare them yourself. You can eat it. Spring vegetables should be served as simple as possible. Cook very fast and in little water as possible and to retain their food value also. Enjoy. MENUS FOR THE WEEK B. C.

Dried fruits have much less vitamin value than fresh fruits, and often are less easily digested. Dried fruits are comparatively cheap, so are useful as low cost foods. Dried fruits, such as apples, pears, peaches and prunes should, as a rule, be soaked overnight. When soaked overnight in lukewarm water, Cook tightly covered, in the same water in which the fruit is soaked. A few slices of orange or lemon improve the flavor greatly. Sugar is used, and only a small quantity and just before removing from the fire as with fresh fruits. Much flavor and health value of fruits are lost by overcooking. Cook only enough to make tender. Use the juice. Make bags of ice netting from pieces left over from curtains. In these, place a small piece of tape, braid, and such materials. Run a draw string through the bags and hang them in the closet. Often, time is saved because without opening, the bags of ice can be seen without opening.

Drink at least two glasses immediately upon rising. Hot water or hot and cold water taken after alternation. Most host drinks. 2. Drink at least one glass before rehiring. 3. Drink water freely between meals, sparingly at meals.

Savings during Summer Vacation Vary from $50 to $600 in Some Cases LABORERS LEAD Waiters are Second, Musicians Third, Clerks Fourth WASHINGTON, D.C.-The Economics Club of Howard University recently conducted a survey of the male students of the university to determine the number who were employed during the summer months, and the nature of their employment. One hundred seventy men were interviewed as a cross section of the student body. The investigation revealed the following results: employed during the summer, 138; of this number those continuing work during the school year were 98. The nature of the employment represented: laborers, 49; waiters in hotels and dining cars, 44; musicians, 12; office employees, 10; elevator operators, 7; bellmen, 6; chauffeurs, 6; service men, 6; switchboard operators, 5; shoemakers, 3; actors, 3; post office employees, 3; painters, 2; carpenters.

TALIAFERRO There seems to be quite a controversy as to the exact status of Dummy during the play of the hand. Some seem to think that the person who becomes "Dummy" must be one in all senses of the word. This is entirely wrong and a thorough discussion of "Dummy"'s status follows. First I will quote the law pertaining to the Dummy: **DUMMY** 30. (a) After the end of the auction, the play begins, and the player takes the thirteenth trick. Senior leads; Dummy places his cards face up on the table and Declarer plays Dummy's cards in addition to play one more time. (1) Warn Declarer Dummy may not: (1. Warn Declarer that he is about lead from the wrong hand, nor tell him which hand has the lead. Penalty; either lead from which the lead shall be made. (2. Suggest a lead or play by naming a card, or otherwise, Penalty; either lead from which the lead shall be made. (3. Declarer make usch lead or play such card (if legal) or refrain from doing so. (4) As provided in (b), Dummy has all the rights of a player, but he intentionally does not hold the card by either adversary. (d) If Dummy has intentional seen any such card, he may not call Declare's attention to: a) In legal right. Penalty: forfeiture of such right. 2.4 card exposed by an adversary Penalty; the card is no longer exposed. 3. An adverse lead out Penalty; the adversaries, after consultation, may declare which of them shall lead the vote. The vote may not be claimed. 5. The fact that he has refused a suit by asking whether he has any or none of it. Penalty. Declareer may not claminate for any reresult, therefore. ```markdown ``` This now should settle all arguments as to just what is the status of Dummy. With the exception of information as to what card to play or assist the Declarer with the play of the hand, Dummy retains all his rights as a player, unless he has intentionally seen a card held by either the Declarer or the adversaries. He can call attention to too many or too few crayons to need to out that a trick has been gathered by the wrong side. He can call Declarer's attention to any rights that Declarer may have under the laws, or to ask a renouncing player if he has none of the suit led. I received the following petition last week from enthusiasts, requesting that I reconsider my refusal to promote or assist in the promotion of a general Bridge Congress in Baltimore: **Dir Bit:** I must read have in your articles of February 22nd, that you will not be able to promote a Bridge tournament, I am very willing to help in the promotion of a general Bridge congress, and will lend every effort and energy but I want to be assured that the Bridge players, clubs and societies are with me, before I decide to make the necessary moves. The following letter was received from the Katherine Granger, assistant secretary of the Idele Awlite Bridge Club, of Harrisbury, Pennsylvania: Dear Sir, If you could settle a little argument for the Idele Awlite Club of Harrisburg, the scored sheet "A" insists that the 30 made in one hand is entitled to 125 bonus in Progressive Bridge, and that the interview score (12) of the adversaries prevents the bonus of 125 being given for the game in one hand (according to Work, she says, Which is correct? Thanking you, we are the Idle Awhite Club. In reply I quote law (6), of Laws of Progressive Auction: "(6) The side making a game (30 points or more for trickle in one hand scores a bonus of 125 in the honor score." It seems as though "A" wins her argument. R. W. TALIAFERRO Studio of Bridge 18 Presstman Street Phone, Lafayette 0751 Richmond Players in Drama The Little Theatre of Union University, Richmond, Va. scored a triumph Sunday in its presentation of the Psycho-Father, Father the opening attraction of the season.

Cooley, the soothing, and the caring, mother; the old time much religious parson; Alice Scott, the gray haired, old nurse; Granville Norris, the young army valet and Wilson Hunter, servant in the home of the captain. The play depicted vividly and nakedly the frank jungle-soul sex relations of today last characterizing the modern The plot was upon the family strife over the control of their child.

The introduction of slavery came as a result of the acquisition of large tracts of land by the white Marylanders and settlers in the region. The Negro, it is said proved the savior of the white planters who were unable to withstand the climate of Maryland and Virginia. The importation of slaves, part of the slave trade, began in the African West Coast continued until the middle of the eighteenth century. . . . . . .

The men, all penniless and without means of employment, had migrated here from fifty cities in search of work, they told the officials. Many of the men had gone without food for one or more days. Their clothing was threadbare. In many in the city, the police forced to shelter the same group night after night releasing them in the morning to resume their search for work.

The leader in the expansion, and merger program is reported to be the Binga State Bank, president of the Binga State Bank. The other banks named in the merger project are: the Franklin Trust and Savings, the Roosevelt State, the Bankers State, the Lincoln State, and the Industrial State. The last five are what is known as "white" owned and officered by white people. The Douglas National Bank, Anthony Overton, president, is not named in the report, but the South Parkway National Bank, a new institution chartered through the efforts of the bank, becomes a part of the consolidation. An effort to get in touch with Mr. Binga by a representative of the Associated Negro Press, the Binga Bank, P. L. Webb, replying ostensibly from Mr. Binga's office, declined to discuss the matter in any respect. "Was the report as published true?" he was asked. "Is anyway anything at this time," he replied. The immediate effect of the report was to arouse speculation on prospective investors of the Negro group with merger. All of the banks named do a large commercial and savings business with Negroes, but outside of the Binga Bank. Some have planned investors and guardes and two or three have tellers, stock salesmen, and account solicitors. If the merger became a fact, however, it would be an indication of the virility of the movement now active in the district to recognize the inter-dependence of the white and black interests in the district and their disposition to co-op- N.Y.

T. Arnold Hill, who heads the Industrial department of the league, states that "unemployment among Negroes due to causes other than inability to find work will certainly total 330,000, exclusive of those employed in agriculture. This figure is more apt to be understated than exaggerated considering the changes that have occurred since last census and unemployment of various kinds due to unemployment other than fail-ful employment." Continuing. Mr. Hill says, 'the disparity between Negroes and white people unemployed in Buffalo is shown from a recent report of the New York Department of Labor which takes 1.7 per cent employment among Negroes as compared with 10.8 per cent unemployment among white males. Philadelphia "In Philadelphia unemployment is reflected from a report made by attendance officers of the Bureau of Compulsory Education in cooperation with the Wharton, the University and Company. This report shows a relatively heavier proportion of Negroes unemployed than white workers. The difference was pronounced in one district in which 29.2 per cent of Negroes and only 6.8 per cent of the whites were unemployed because they could not find South Carolina "The seriousness of unemployment in South Carolina is reflected in the following statement of conditions in one of its largest cities. The state is experiencing an increase in farm revenue this spring among Negro farmers. The building industry shows stagnation. The large colored contractors are working about 75 percent of their usual crew contracts with the usual preference with the workers. Common labor is in poor demand. 50 per cent being either idle or only working for time. In Milwaukee "Large numbers of Negroes are reported in the unemployed ranks of Milwaukee Communists engaged in street celebrations. Charitable institutions are making special provisions for 900 married men with families in Cincinnati, and for 900 men nights' lodging and help from relief agencies." Vocation Campaign Far-reaching plans are being made by the Industrial Relations department of the league for the forthcoming vocational opportunity campaign to be celebrated in all parts of the country during the week of August. The purpose of the campaign is two-fold in that it seeks to enlarge the understanding of Negroes with respect to their occupational problems, and to bring to the attention of the public, especially the employing group, facts with reference to the capacity and training of Ne- Committees Mr. Hill is organizing industrial committees in the principal cities of the country, the communities, activities, churches, lodges, clubs, newspapers, and in all organized groups touching the life of Negroes. The radio is to be used where possible, and committees are created to occupy into which Negroes have gone in recent years, and to expose prevalent fallacies respecting the incidence of Negroes in certain forms of professional and semi-professional work.

Wharton, native of Boston, secretary of the U. S. legation at Monrovia, Liberia, West Africa, came over to Baltimore, Sunday, from Washington. Mr. Wharton spent some time with the Wharton family on Division Street, who are his close relatives. He left Sunday afternoon for Washington where he reported to the State Department and awaits further orders. He left Liberia February 3rd, on a 60-day leave, stopped in Germany, and spent a week in New York before coming down to Washington Tuesday of last week. He told the AFRO-AMERICAN Sunday that he might come over to Baltimore again for the next week but his plans are indefinite. Mr. Wharron said he left Monroe the arrival of Bishop Monroe H. Davis of the A.M.E. Church, or the Liberian Commission which is to investigate the enforced labor question. Since his leaving Liberia, he has understood the Wing Liberia Johnson, the American commissioner has arrived, the American commissioner has received no response concerning the whereabouts of the Norwegian commissioner appointed by the League of Nations.

He has only words of praise for the work the churches are doing through their missionary societies for education in Liberia.

Hubert Says Harlem tive than Jes NEW YORK. — The Inter- denominational Preachers' Meeting and the Harlem League branch of the New York Federation of Churches delighted the conservatives, the old-fashioned and the Nego- haters by going on record Monday as against interracial dances. Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor of Saint Paul that the League felt that dancing was sinful and contrary to religion. Church socials for black and white are all right for promoting better understanding, but sould be no loophole that religion is trying to promote dancing with Urban League Differs James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the Urban League, who had presided over the church social under dispute, today expressed severe disapproval of the action of the ministers. "The chief advantage of inter-racial dancing," he said, "would be a broader acquaintance and the furTHERance of good fellowship among the good and white races. The church ought to be foremost in such good work. I cannot conceive of Christ taking the attitude these ministers have in mind." He said that the Urban League, which is a national Negro welfare organization, never had taken any action on inter-racial dances, but that, in view of its policy and program, could not be opposed to them. Mrs. Copeland in Loss of Be That $540 Woman's Day collection belonging to Bethel A.M.E. Church which disappeared from the sofa in the home of Thaddeus Copeland, a steward in the congregation, Monday of last week, was not taken by Mrs.. Copeland, she told the AFRO-AMERICAN, Monday. The church suffered no loss because the church was immediately reduced from Mr. Copeland's personal tides after men from the local detective headquarters stated that it is their belief that the theft of the money was an inside job. Do not open to live under any burden of public disguise declared Mrs. Copeland. While it is true there were no evidences that anybody broke into the house, there were evidences as plain as day that somebody gone out of the house and left the back door and the back gate open. Wherever the money went, I do not know.

Rev. J. W. Lee, pastor of Galvary Baptist Church, was especially vehement in denouncing the citizens who insisted on having the second meeting and termed Arnold the editor of the book, a local weekly, a "Radical Young man who was leading the people into dangerous ways," by his agitation in this matter. "We can't afford to get in wrong with the white folks," the pastor said, "as they control all the jobs." He also lifting a broadside of Leonovsky and Park, a neighboring town, who on invitation of Mr. Rock had co-operated with the committee to crystallize the sentiment for the mass meeting. He termed them as "outsiders" who had nothing to do with the redBunk colored people's affairs. A committee was selected to present the resolution standing by the force. A criminal warrant was sworn out by son, charging atrocious assault and Wilson, charging atrocious assault and battery against the officer who was arrested and held under bail for the dr nujrura ETAOIN Standing grand jury. A civil suit against Wilson will also be filed in the district court.

New Cuban Whirlwind NEW YORK—In one of the finest cards arranged recently, the Olympia Club in Harlem is offering a sensational bout Saturday night, fraturing Jose Diaz, the latest lightweight Diaz, the rated one of the fastest men of his weight in the ring and in a recent appearance, stopped an opponent in two minutes of the second round, punishing the fighter so severe that he was moved to notice that Diaz is a comer. With a few more fights to his credit, Diaz will be in the same class with his countryman, Kid Chocolate as he has the same qualities which have brought that lithe fighter on. Other class busters on the program insure the fans a great evening.

THE CHURCHMAN The Church Girds on Armor for Holy War Christian and Jewish religions throughout the world seem stirred to their depths as a result of Soviet Russia's onslaught against the Orthodox Greek church. Strange enough religions which at times have their own turbulent history have been at each other's throats have joined hands in the general fight against what they call "religious persecution." There must be something deep-seated and serious about the Russian situation, which would call for such a universal upheaval and gathering of the "faithful." Some say that it is "the voice of Jacob but the hand of Esau," and that while the Christian churches are making a oustry against Godless Russia, and dancing a witchcraft, it is the capitalistic overloads of the church, who are pulling the strings in an endeavor to break down the threat of Russian success in the new-born economic system. Explaining the situation to this writer, a young Communist declared, "Russia is not aiming after a Godless world so much as she is to scrap the present religious machinery so that one based more on the brotherhood of man may take its place." There comes a time in every religion when its machinery should be scraped. Jesus Christ came to this world to do that very thing, and most of us who belong to the Protestant churches belong to a religion which sought to scrap an old religious regime. The fear that Soviet Russia will banish God, is one, which certainly could not be nursery, of sane men and women. When they may abandon us, let us hope that they succeed—is the prevailing idea of a God who would lead men to exploit other men and women like the leaders of the Orthodox Greek church did the Russian peasants. No Human Conception There can be no human conception which does not lead to a belief in a God. Any being of whatever form, shape, or substance that started the career of this old universe of ours would fit anybody's idea of a God. But if the Russian people wish to try out human relations which they believe will distribute a greater share of happiness to their being; if they want to abolish racial prejudice and make a working brotherhood of the whole world; if they wish to abolish an economic system which automatically makes paupers of some while it makes idle rich of others, and have to tear out of their souls the religion which has been bought, paid for and prostituted by selfish men who wish to exploit human beings, let them go to it. Henry M. Turner Br. L. BARKSDALE The late Henry M. Turner stood as a bastion of racial defense with a consuming zeal for the well-being of his people. No orthodox in certain practices of life, and some things—which others might have accepted as being highly unethical—he looked upon as being necessary to the carrying out of his mission. He fulfilled the fulfillment of an established law. He had a brutal frankness in expressing his opinions. He would not strike a man behind his back, but would call his attention before he was ready to speak. He being equals, and was willing to give every one an equal show. If you wanted what he did not desire that you should have, he would let you know that he was going to attend conferences, he was democratic, and with him, every man was a big man.

The duty of reorganization so as to correct these conditions rests with the people of those states, and all efforts the end will receive the hearty encouragement." DO NOT READ NEGRO NEWSPAPERS By NANNIE H. BURROUGHS (For The Associated Negro Press, "There is nothing in them that is the alibi of Negroes who take race papers. There certainly is more about Negroes in the smallest colored paper than there is about them in the largest paper. But a race tape and a race card is a Race that undervalues or despises its own effort at self-expression, however crude, will never attain unto things more excellent. Negro newspapers have the moral spite of their imperfections and limitations. If Negroes do any worthwhile thing the colored newspaper is the only paper that tells the world the full story of the pictures of the actors allow with it. Nothing Going On If there is nothing in Negro papers it is because there is no going to be a black person who do not know the value of publicity or those who should be publicity and are not aware of the secretive, The critics of Negro papers could make news by starting something new, saying something worthwhile, and advertising something worth buying. That's what makes a newspaper go and that's what makes copy for re- In the Dalies The Negro newspaper is the only source from which to get current information about the worthwhile things that are going on among Negroes. The Negro newspaper is the only source from which to get the viewpoint of the Negro on some vital questions. Only once in many moons will you find in the daily papers creditable write-ups of the addresses given by the largest meetings, or of our most pretentious undertakings. The daily papers seldom tell the stories of our greatest achievements. In fact, news reports of Negroes or Negro men are always written in the most elegant style and tone the stories that are written of other people and their big events. Even when the newspapers report such events the excerpts from the addresses that are derived from the stories emasculated that sound almost senseless when we read them in the daily papers. Dailies Like Bad Negroes The two Negro papers like bad Negroes. They are the only ones who can get all the space they want on the front page of any daily paper in this country. If they are in the picture in toto, Negroes wearing the livery of servants can get their pictures in the photogravure section of the Sunday papers. The good Negroes are given an anne or two in the a-men corner If Negroes had to depend on the daily papers for their information, they would know very few worthwhile things that are done by their race, and eight cent sweater, he is written up in the daily papers with a very vivid description of how he did the trick, and how the cap chased him, and how the citizens joined him in the chase. Instead of stealing, he said that same Negro had purchased a home in an exclusive neighborhood or opened a good business, the papers would not have sa i idowd mj...jy shdilu m have said a word about it. The Good News in Weeklies The Negro newspaper could have the unstinted support of the Negro community, all of the good news and the constructive race ideas that will help us forward. The men who fight the battles of the race with their pens and broadcast on their men's week by week will though still the vehicle of expression through which the stories come to us, are doing the race an invaluable service. Advertisements Negro business men should advertise in race papers. That is the kind of support that will make a bigger and bigger Negro paper run. That is questionable advertisements in order to get money to run. All of that goofer bag, rabbit foot, and love powder to win which is the elite, whose names are carried therein, never pay a cent. The best side of Negro life, would never be a business reporter and their news gathers. "Muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn." Our papers could give better service if the wise ones who know more than Solomon would put down their hammers and put up their How Race Pride Come The head of every Negro home should subscribe for at least one good Negro paper and see that it is read in their home. Every Negro leader, preach to the people among the people could do the same. Every child above the seventh grade should be made to read a race paper every week and discuss with or tell their parents what they have read. The teacher should give knowledge. Get you a colored paper and read it. If there isn't anything in it get up and do something so that the editor can have something to put in. It will never get anywhere by simply criticising what it being done and not doing anything to improve it. If you do not like what is being written, the job is open, take it and write something that is worth reading. Every person who is a better writer for somebody who is a better writer than those who are now on his staff. Come all your critics, take your pens in your hands, and let the world hear from you. If there is nothing in your papers now there will be something in them when you get in COME ON. In D.C. Churches HAVEN MEMORIAL Last Sunday morning, the pastor the Rev. H. Williams, preached on.

C. Woods, president of the Oklahoma Baptist College, and pastor of the First Baptist Church of Muskogee, Oklahoma, addressed the members of the Baptist Ministers' Alliance on "The Influence of Economic Control in National Religion," at the Enon Baptist Church, Monday. "Any time you put your hand into the pockets of the General Education Board, the board puts words in your mouth, said Dr. Woods. He further stated that materialism was gaining control of religion to the extent that the people of the world were losing faith in the church because the church was becoming the economic comparison of the state. computer. "Dr. Henry Emerson Foodick, brilliant and seismologist thinking, though he is Rockefeller's preacher. He is as responsible to Mr. Rockefeller as he is to God." Dr. Woods declared in pointing out that the most noted of the preachers of today were controlled by capitalists. Race Economics Dr. Woods urged that the ministers use their pulpits to create sentiment for a better economical consideration of the race in the country in this country to force the colored man into economic slavery, a slavery more ignominious than physical slavery," he said, and pointed out that wherever numbers are large there are both white and colored workers, it is always the whole of the colored force which is dismissed rather than a part of both groups. The minister told the bread and butter situation, you deal with the religious situation. The church must take the lead in corraling the strength of the race and in commanding that society be united. We have got to think of terms of outliving," he said. Visitors Among the visitors present were M. C. Browne, of Va. the Rev. C. T. Murray, of Wash- ington; Mrs. Frances Watkins, Rev.

Please urged that all foreigners be shipped out of the country that these people are protected, on the Senate floor, Monday. "Today," he said, "we hear much about unemployment. There is a race among you today, to which we are accustomed to speak, the people of the North invite them to come up here; they were not satisfied with the Negro being in the South; they were not satisfied with letting him in; they invited him to Washington; they made this a "Nigger Heaven," where they sit beside you on the street cars, eat with you in some of the dining rooms, associate, with you in the dining room, taking dinner at the White House. "Now he is here, he is in New York and other northern cities," he said, "and the bread line; putting him out to factories and jobs he has held and giving them to foreigners, who cannot speak the English, entitled to protection. He is entitled to the jobs that God made him to fill." White Woman—Negro She said the South Carolina Senator, "there was a white woman in this town—I do not care if she is as low as down a snake; she was a white woman—who was tried in this (Judge Cobb's) court by a Negro jury, and was prosecuted against that. I think it is an outrage and a disgrace upon the government that a white woman should be subjected to being tried by a set of accused or how rich they are, or who they are. "Talk about anarchy! That will bring it. Of course no such thing will ever be attempted in my state, but if it were true, I would go out of windows then ever before went out of any court house in this country."

Daniel Darlington, rector of the church, a large part of the congregation of the Church of the Crucifixion, in Harlem attended "musical vespers" at the white church as part of a plan to promote fellowship between races. The Nrochie choir of sixty-five voices, in the Schubert Society, sang selections from Tchaikovsky, Mendelssohn and other classical composers during their long program, but only two spirituals, in a unique gesture that is beautifully Christian and highly statesmanlike," said the Rt.
