Washington, D.C. The Senate of New Jersey and its moderator opposed to the confirmation of Judge Parker. If confirmed we will vote in the next general election. A Republican Senator cannot be elected in New Jersey with the Negro vote against him, particularly when it dirty.

THEY VOTED WRONG NEW YORK. — What has developed into one of the bitterest of nation-wide political struggles, is being led by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People against President Hoover's surrender to the South in the name of Lily-White Republicanism by insisting upon his nomination of Judge John Parker of North Carolina. The N.A.A.C.P. opposition to Judge Parker is based squarely upon his voting of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution, and on his being therefore to sit on the highest seat of the New Telegram Saturday pubs poll showing that the pres-cep of senators is 45 against 44 in favor of Parker. **Quakes** The Schoenberg of Friends in Philadelphia (Quakers) have officially notified the NAACP, that they have written to President Hoover and to all senators opposing the Parker Cannon.

Press on Parker INSULTS TO THE NEGRO "Mr. Hoover seems to have gone far afield to add insult to injury to the Negro—most loyal supporter of his party. "In his zeal to compensate the white south for its recent wholesale entry into Republican ranks, and his endeavor to win over nothing short of contempt toward the Negro ring of the Party,"—Boston Chronicle.

President Hoover has hardly strengthened his position, but still is sully-nilly, by nominating for the Supreme bench a gentleman who has openly advocated the practical mutilation of women."—Heywood Broun (white), Scripps-Howard, Newspapers. SOCIAL EQUALITY "For Judge Parker to be defended because of his common-sense view on the subject of complete social and political equality between the races would be in the nature of a disgrace."

WASHINGTON, (Special). —In an effort to allay the nation-wide disapproval of his administration, President Herbert Hoover is expected this week to appoint a colored person to a prominent Federal position. Rumors to this effect have been hinted in capital circles for the past three weeks. While both Democrats and Republicans of the inner circles are aware of the concoction which is being brewed, none of them will state definitely what the appointment is to be.

On that occasion, the club acted as host heading, officals of the A.M.E. Church of the financial and church extension departments, which had just concluded their annual meeting. During the speaking, Bishop W. T.

The exercises were held at the First Congregational Church (white). Unofficial reports were to the effect that the President had been asked to present the award in person but declined. "I am indeed gratified," the President wrote, "to learn that the Harmon Award is for distinguished achievement is to be presented to Dr. Robert Russia Moton for his outstanding contribution toward improving health in Negro people in America. No man of either race more clearly deserves such recognition for services that have done so to increase good will and co-operation in a field where these are indispensable to the common welfare. I congratulate Dr. Moton most cordially upon this earned honor." Dr. Mordecai Johnson, delivering the principal address, said: "Every thoughtful man in this country knows that our religion is stalled, but not a new power.

While the laymen in the Baptist Church will be shocked at what seems a case of high churchmen arranging to "bump off" a man who might prove to be a dangerous informer, those who have followed the development of Baptist affairs for the last 20 years, will be inclined to chalk it off as cause and effect.

So about this time that the controversy which terminated in the splitting of the convention into two organizations started. Many, ambitious to head the publishing department, and Boyd, in 1600 the opposition to Dr. Boyd found a 'willing champion in Dr. E. W. D.

Many stalwart young men in the denomination were persuaded to join in the fight to oust Dr. Isaacs, the hope that they would be rewarded.

CHICAGO, (ANP.)—Leaders in church and lay circles were almost stupified last Wednesday when they first received the news of the strange and shocking murder of Prof. Edward B. Pierson, auditor for the National Baptist Convention. Dr. Plerson's body, punctured by six bullets, was found by fishermen near Scottburg, Indiana. The hands and feet were tied, and the apparent intention of the murderers had been to throw the body into the Muscatuck River, along with two grips which were fastened to him by a rope at each end of his body. Examination showed that he was shot at close range, there being powder burns on the front of his body. None of the bullets came out of his body, some of them lodging in his spine and one of them breaking his left arm. But the injured man had caught hold of a tree and saved himself from burning. The fishermen were attracted by his creep and died before medical assistance could be given, or he could give any information as to the identity of his assailants. Enemies Blamed Investigators, endowing to discover a motive for the murder, were the nature of Pierson's work, and the names who wished to get rid of him. Search of his clothing after discovery of the tragedy revealed as missing a diamond pin, a watch, and some papers, said by his secretary, Miss Alma Overton, to bear on alarms of the operation of the National Baptist Publishing House, of which Dr. A. M. Townsend is secretary. Rev. Pierson's money ($50) was found in his pockets.

E. Harris, editor Pharmaceutical Section of the Journal of the National Medical Association, has denied that he had sought an advertisement when he approached officials of that concern several days ago. Dr. Harris stated that he believed that while Sharp and Dohme perhaps did not plan to insult Negroes by the act, they had been insulted and that the matter should be rectified by the firm. Dangerous Organization In a recent letter to the drug concern Mr. Harris stated that it was "unacceptable" to "white families" as printed in the broadside began with certain advertising agencies and was upon request that the organization be programmed of a certain dangerous organization. Denies Statement Denying the statement that he had first solicited an advertisement from the concern before calling their attention to the broadside advertisement, Dr. Harris said: "As to my soliciting an advertisement, Sharp and Dohme, this is wholly incorrect. Advertisements for our journal are handled from our business office in Newark, N. J., except when the business manager requests one from the company already carrying one from the Mullford Company, of Philadelphia, which is a subsidiary of Sharp and Dohme, so why solicit under the circumstances? "The fact is that when I called on Dr. Krawl, the business manager, I suggested that I had two matters to take up with him; first, the Directory of Colored Drugists and Drug Stores in the United States and the matter now in question, could have been indeed mighty small and would have to have provoked or sought to 'brow beak'." "Dr. Krawl stated the reason that his house did not desire our directory was that they had all the druggists listed together without a reason that they did not believe in separations, whereupon I brought out this S. T. 37 ad, and he ran for Dr. Temperton. On returning, after lunch, I was accepted by the police and immediately this same ad or revenge but when Dr. Krawl mentioned it. "The whole thing is, Sharp and Dohme have made a miserable failure in endeavoring to explain away this blunder. The only thing I am asking of them is, that inasmuch they have published a book on the race of medical profession, to make a suitable retraction in the same way. I have no other suggestions or recommendation, officially or privately, to make in the premises." Marylanders Wed in D.C. WASHINGTON—Six Marylanders were granted licenses to wed here last week.

BAYER Ohio Veterans Launch Fight Against Jim Crow Trips to France The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly BIRD WINGS FOR PLANES TO FLY AGAINST WIND Californian's Discovery First Explanation of How Birds Soar WILL ALTERFLYING New Planes Planned for Ocean Crossing BY WILLIAM PICKENS LOS ANGELES, Cal. — J. H. Montgomery's "Vortex Wing" for airplanes, recently sold to a corporation here, is expected to revolutionize flying by making it easier to fly against the wind than with it. How do the eagle and the other cultures of the "soaring" birds get high into the air, turn their majestic heads into the the wind and sail forward ever a visible motion of the wings? And how do the far-farring birds, be travel half around the world on a single flight, or across the ocean—how do these birds sleep on the wing and still keep flying? For on such journeys sleep they must. These have been the questions of images—now fully demonstrated by Montgomery, both by a dead and mounted eagle and by a wings expanded, and by a 13-pound piece of carved into the image bird, with expanded wings and feathers. And both of these dead things fly, the one made by nature and the one made by Montgomery,—and they fly against the wind. Seeing is believing. Go to the 9th floor of the Quinny Office Building in the heart of Los Angeles; and by artificial wind-producers, such those as the Montgomery picture fence "Montgomery will create a thirty-five mile gate, and his stuffed sage or his piece of carved wood, whichever he sets on the track, will take off and move right into the teeth of the face of the "bird." And how did Montgomery happen to do this? Not with any commercial idea, or with any idea of adventure, or with curiosity about the secrets of the great birds, he stayed for five years on the American desert, watching the great eagles and other creatures in the wild. Many birds had noticed such a bird flying slowly beside him, going in same direction as his plane, when the plane was travelling, the pilots were flying, the visitors he has often noticed this bird suddenly shoot on ahead leaving the plane behind, and without ever flapping or moving or nesting, the birds flying with body wings AGAINST the wind. He headed birds, set them up and exposed them with them and discovered great secret, that if their wings fluttered, and into the wind, the birds飞 And now Montgomery makes a wooden bird, carving the feather-tatures and holes in the wings, so as to create the cyclones and airbags inside this wooden wing into the air, turn it loose into the teeth of a big wind, and it will fly forward, say, twenty miles before it sells down majestically and hands.—No wonder that a corporation Montgomery widely taking ten percent on sales instead of a lump sum). And millionaires are buying the shares in the company. The inventor sells it the "Vortex Wing."

Headed into a regular trade wind one could fly on across the ocean, if his fuel ran out or his engine went dead. Instead of the strong west-to-east Atlantic Ocean winds making it practically impossible now to fly from Europe to America, the easiest crossing will become that from Europe to America. When a machine gets into trouble in a strong blow, it can find safely its built-in Guilds built with the Montgomery Wing will become real birds—the more wind, the better. The Scientific Secret Montgomery noticed that each feather of such a bird's wings is made up of little feather-strands, and that the forward strands are only about as long as those that point backwards. When the eagle spreads his wings, with the wind beating into his face, this arrangement of feather-strands (short ones forward and long ones backward) gets the air, creating muscles, perhaps millions of air-currents—little cyclones. The forward strands create the negative, and the backward (long) strands create the positive currents—and the force of these, so direct, drives the bird forwards, the harder and faster the wind blows into his face, the more rapidly he is impelled forward. This secret held for a billion years in the arcana of nature has now for the first time been discovered by a man, and he is an American Negro of only average education—but of genius. Voodoo Doctor Shot in Battle With 25 Cops KANSAS CITY, (ANP)—Tom Sims, a voodoo doctor, was shot and killed here Wednesday morning in a gun battle with some twelve men, more than two hours.

Protests Women on Washing Attorney Cites its Illegality as ment C Protests Women's Service on Washington Grand Jury Attorney Cites its Illegality as Reason for Abating Embezzlement Charge. WASHINGTON.—Charles E. Robinson, attorney for William O. Davis, has attacked the indictment charging his client with the embezzlement of $4,135 from the Odd Fellows Hall Association. In a plea in abatement filed by Mr. Robinson last Thursday in the District Supreme Court, fourteen reasons are set forth why the indictment against Davis should be quashed. Mr. Robinson alleges that the grand jury was illegally and improperly drawn. The jury commissioners did not write the names of prospective jurors on separate and similar pieces of paper, and then fold the paper so that the jury could not be seen, he declares. The names were not placed in the jury box in accordance with law, he also says. the jury commissioners, Mr. Robinson asserts. The commissioners, he says, separately inspected and approved the list of prospective jurors, but did not in a formal meeting draw and approve the names and place them in the jury room. During the proceedings before the grand jury an unauthorized person was present in the grand jury room. Mr. Robinson states. He names John R. Hawkins, a deputy United States marshal, acting as bailiff for the grand jury. Women on Grand Jury The presence of women on the grand jury was also a basis of attack and improperly drawn. The jury commissioners did not write the names of prospective jurors on separate and similar pieces of paper, and then fold the paper so that the jury could not be seen, he declares. The names were not placed in the jury box in accordance with law, he also says. The jury commissioners in drawing the prospective jurors did not publicly break the seals of the jury box and draw the names from it, he states, and the names drawn in the privacy of the jury commissioners' room.

Nine members of the grand jury which returned the indictment against the defendant no authority in the law for service of women on grand juries, Mr. Robinson declares. The law provides, he states, that no person shall be discharged from the jury commissioner on account of sex, but that provision "is inapplicable to grand jurors and does not authorize them to be members of the grand jury."

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, April 26, 1930 WHOLE COUNTRY AGAINST PARKER Continued From Page One the Negro in an organized campaign is making himself felt in a powerful political manner. That this influence will be exercised in many other matters henceforth is regaed as inevitable." Raise Cry of Communism An attempt is now being made by those forces in the South who are supporting President Hoover, to raise the standards of the "progres" in order to discredit those who are seeking to uphold the standards of the US Supreme Court and to sustain the institution by opposing the seating on the nation's supreme tribunal of a man who like Judge Parker, would advocate the Negro for political advantage. What Parker Said Judge Parker is quoted as having made statements in 1820, which he yet denied Neepalized. The Great Court of Appeal on April 19, 1820, quotes him as follows: PARKER'S VIEWS IN 1020 "The Republican party in North Carolina has accepted the amendment in the spirit in which it was passed. It is a good one. It I have attended every State Convention since 1908 and I have never seen a Negro delegate in any of the states. I have never Negro as a class does not desire to enter politics. The Republican party in Carolina does not desire him to do so. "We recognize the fact that he has not yet reached that stage in the burdens and responsibilities of Government. This being true, and every inference that it is true, the attempt of certain pety Democratic politicians to inject them into the every campaign is most reprehensible. "I say it deliberately, there is no more dangerous or contemptible enemy than the Negro. It is not a sensual or political advantage will attempt to kindle the flame of racial passion of the Negro in politics is source of evil and danger to both races and is not desired by the white publican party of North Carolina." Warning Issued The N.A.A.C.P. issued a warning that reliable informants have given information of pressure being brought on Negroes, office-holders, and others in every Negro church, lodge, woman's club and individual, is urged to telegraph at once to his U. S. Senators urging a vote against Judge Parker. Senator Fess Challenged The N.A.A.C.P. today telegraphed Senator Fess of Ohio, administration spokesman, asking him what Negroes of any importance had endorsed his nomination. Shepard president of a State School supported by State funds, and citing 181 avid of outstanding Negro citizens of North Carolina opposing Judge Parker; and directly challenging Senator Fess whether he should amend to the Constitution. Seven Students Wire Protest Seven southern colored and white students from the Brookwood Labor College at Pocana. N. X., wired Senator Norris Monday protesting the Parker appointment on the ground of his labor record and race prejudice. White in Washington Walter White, secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., was in Washington this week and said that protests from all parts of the country against the Parker nomination were coming in. He said he was the recipient of a telegram from Sonnet Narris asking for a photostat copy of the newspaper report of the speech made by Judge Parker ten years ago when he cast aspersions upon Negroes as DePriest Busy Representative Oscar DePriest, (Rep. Ill.), has been busy all the week lining up Senate votes against the Republican. It is understood that Senator Otis F. Glenn (Rep. Ill.) is opposed to the Parker nomination and that Senator Charles S. Deneen, (Rep. Ill.), a Senator from the committee, has not committed himself. Judge Parker Is 44 Judge Parker of the Fourth U. S. Circuit District, is 44 years old and weighs 200 pounds. He was a Democrat into the Republican party. He was defended for Congress and defeated for governor in 1920, announcing in all his speeches that he never wanted to be a Democrat, and he did be happy if they would vote the Democratic ticket. His Democratic opponent was an organizer of the Republican's, the anti-hero in the book founded by Samuel Simmons, whose business it was to frighten all colored people away from the polls. He gave the governorship by more than 77,000 votes, but President Coolidge gave him a commission as judge White Press Divided Washington newspapers are divided. The Washington Post favors Parker. The Washington Daily favors Parker and the Washington Star, as usual, is neutral. Hard Sums up Situation William Hard, white newsman, described the situation this week as follows: First, the Republican presidential campaign managers of 1928 discarded the idea of efforts to please southern whites. Second, the existing Republican administration has appointed virtually no Negroes to office. Third, the division of the national committee under John R. Hawkins has been closing down. Fourth, John J. Parker, of North Carolina, has been nominated for participation in politics, has been nominated to be a justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. Accordingly, politics is of minor importance and the straw which breaks the camel's yet is significant because it is a match which sets a heap of previous discontents on fire. In other words, it is a straw which breaks the camel's back. Florida Girls Wed in D. C. WASHINGTON—Two Florida girls were married here last week. They were: Miss Annie Rhoden, 18.

Why Labor is Opposed to Judge Parker Organized labor is opposed to Judge John J. Parker for the United States Supreme Court which has ruled that employers which the United States Workers of America opposed. This injunction, declared in federal law, requires dog's contract is valid. A "Yellow-dog" contract in the language of organized labor, is one under which men are employed on contract, they will join no labor union. The employer thus takes advantage of a job-seeker's desire to force a surrender of his rights to the employer. The "yellow-dog" contract is signed by the worker who is forced to do it in order to gain employer's shelter for himself and family. While labor has fought Judge Parker, the New York Evening Post says that the Negro opener which the Negro vote in several states have caused the opposition to grow to a point that led William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, said the Senate showed that Judge Parker would be defeated.

Arnold Hill, N.Y. National Urban League executive, told the third annual Fact Finders's Conference which ended a three-day session here Friday. Although the attendance was not as large as in previous years, the sessions were characterized, it was pointed out by officers, by the exceptional preparation made by those who presented the various topics programmed as well as the matured participants, and the earnest deliberation with which the body went about its work. President James E. Shepard announced that the executive committee had decided to recess the conference for two or more years while the results of its findings are to be presented to various national and international Urban League the N.A.A.C.P. and the National Negro Business League. "A complete report of the year's deliberations will be immediately prepared and will be available to organizations or individuals requesting it," announced C. C. Spaulding of the executive committee. What Negroes Do "Out of every hundred Negroes in the United States, 48 of them are at work. Of this 48, twenty-one are farmers and twelve are in civil services. We employ to practically two-thirds of our total work population of the country. "Of the 48 we find that only two are miners, only six work in the industries, only three in transportation, two in the trades, one in public service, one in education, and one in clerical occupations. Diversification Needed "The problem therefore is one of diversification. If for instance we had an equitable distribution of work there would be three times as many farmers, three times as many persons in the trades, twice as many, in manufacturing, one-third as many, in domestic, and personal services, three times as many in clinical curcuses." Bankers Needed "Certainly banks have a place in the solution of our economic problems," said C. C. Spaulding. It is true that banks have a place in civilities, but all we lack bankers. It would seem judging from the progress of Negro banks that it takes us almost as long to find a banker as it takes the astronomers to find a star. Question of Jobs "But the question of jobs is without doubt, the most pressing problem facing the Negro community," Channing H. Toblas, national secretary Y.M.C.A. "While race prejudice has unquestionably fixed an industrial deadline for occupations and sometimes embarking them in those unskilled, the main responsibility for the present predicament in which the Negro finds himself falls up the race "Negroes are losing out in many of the trades and pursuits in which they have been involved, because they have not kept up with the changes that a modern world insists upon. Then, again we are not creating openings in the commercial dealings with our own people, resting content to let our Jewish, Greek, and Italian friends come into touch with our experience at our expense. "I can say what I with a clear conscience, because I eat food from a Negro grocer, have my clothes washed in a Negro grocer physician as my family doctor, insure in Negro companies, and employ Negro counsel to attend to my needs. I am often eloquent as we like in reciting our industrial hardships, but until we make up our minds, to improve along the lines I have received to we shall continue as instructed in our race for a livelihood." No Color Line For the first time the color line was erased and white speakers mingled with those of darker hue. Governmental agencies at Washington interest in the Domestic Commission sent H. G. Dunn, chief of the Domestic Commerce Division of the Department of Commerce, and W. W. Husband, assistant Secretary of Labor and U. S. Commissioner of Labor and U. S.

Nadinola Bleaching Cream America's most popular complexion beautifier MORE MOTON AWARD must have a cohesive leadership to solve this question." New Southern Leadership Speaking of leadership, Dr. Johnson continued: "It is a glorious thing to see that some Southern white men can see have leadership among our group in the South that can tell the truth without varnish and Dr. Moton is of that leadership. By his words and actions he tells the truth in course — not propagandizing it, but constructs his white brother to stand and listen." Secretary Wilbur Speaks In presenting the award, Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the Interior, said, "The discovery of the compass and the use of sails started great problems in this world of ours. The barriers of the great oceans were overcome and the use of the various continents under diverse conditions were brought into contact. "Evident human differences have provided the opportunity to racialize the various parts of the world. The solution can only be found through the use of high intelligence and good will. "In honor of her Roger Russia Motov, in the presentation to him of the Harmon Award, we have in one person these high qualities a man whose leadership would be recognized. Any one stands out in the fields of education and of service with such distinction that the honor is generally recognized as coming to him." Previous recipients of the Harmon Award in this field have been Dr. W. Alexander, white, director of Commission on Inter-Racial Co-operation and Julius Rosenwald, white of Chicago. Dr. Moton Spears In Dec. 2006 the acceptance of the award, he said. "It is with a deep spirit of humility and gratitude that I accept from the Federal Council of Churches the award that has been made to me in recognition of the cause in recognition of the actions. If in what I have been able to do in various causes in which I have served in my lifetime, there is any recognition at all due, I would sooner that it be given for this cause than all. I have been said concerning me is due in equal measure to those noble spirits of both races in all sections of the country with whom I have served. "Indeed, what little I have done when not have been possible without them. "It is because I have found in others a genuine desire to be just and fair, that, whatever has been attributed to me, has been important and important work in the world is that of promoting good will between men and women of every race, creed, and country. For all our boasted civilization, wealth, learning wonderful inventions power, intelligence, and wisdom if people don't know how to live together in peace and good will, to trust one another and to serve one another." One of Greatest Americans In a message read to the gathering by "Personally and on behalf of the Commission on Inter-Racial Co-operation, may I extend to Major Moton our most affectionate best wishes. He is one of the greatest, most尊敬 of this genera, which deserves that comes to him and I am sure that thoughtful people throughout the nation will join in hearty approval of this work of Harmon Founding. It is particularly to his many friends in the South." **Rosenwald's Tribute** Julius Rosenwald sent a message in which he said: "I express special pleasure to the great service which Dr. Moton has rendered in the improvement of relations between the races and to extend congratulations upon the very appropriate recognition of Harmon Award of his achievements."

WASHINGTON, D. C., (CNS) — William A. Johnson, of Toledo, Ohio, editor of the New Era, published in that year a memoir of the 23rd century veteran of the World War, called at the War Department Saturday morning to lodge the formal protest of the 26 Gold Star mothers against the proposed plan to segregate the mothers and wives of disky heroes who fell and were buried on foreign soil.

In their eyes, men of color, are not human and are such merit no consideration. They have never able to understand why our black sharptoothers should be treated as men." "The cruelties of a Peters or a Jeske von Pittkamer in South-East Africa, or the Cameroons, without speaking of the methodical extermination of the Herreres, have forever fixed the opinion of the world on the attitude of the dermans towards black people. "Before the war a Negro was not permitted in the German ranks. Besides the noise that the German press made about the war, which Shaheen is well-known. Indeed one also knows only too well the keen curiosity of the German women in everything that concerns Negroes and we recall very clearly what we personally, saw their faces. We know these German women and Negroes in Berlin, Leipzig, Hamburg, and other cities. "Recently even black boys seem to be enjoying special favor in certainly high Prussian quarters, as well as in other segments. Here, for instance, is one, that was just published: Negroes Sought as Pages "Handsome young Negro wanted as page in a chateau des Masures belonging to the French nobility, these handsome young Negroes are being sought to serve in the homes of German countesses, the German Parliament is occupying it with its own project that emanates from the National-Socialists of Hitler, and the Nationalists of Hugenberg.

The California Federation of Women's Club believes that there are nine rules to keep maids happy. How many maids may play, of many sensual different roles that the APRO-AMERICAN is looking around for examples of couples long and happily married. The Federation's rules for happy marriages are as follows: 1. Never prettily for breakfast. 2. Never make your husband dry dish. 3. Friend husband should take you out just two wrong times. 4. The husband should stay home. 5. The wife should pay the rent, grocery and butcher bills before doiling or even buying new furniture. 6. The law-in-law to visit on Sunday or holidays. 6. Listen to your husband if he likes the sound of his own voice. 7. Ask his advice on everything. 8. Be independent and clinging, but not too jealous. 1. Make him think you are a poor weak creature and he is nine feet high with the strength of a lion and the course of a Napoleon. CHAPTER V Every seventh marriage in the United States ends in a divorce court. Getting married is far easier than staying married. There are so many stories of seni- tence that it is hard to determine to pay some attention to marriage which have succeeded. Pennsylvania YORK YORK, Pa—Services were conducted in Bethel A.M.E.

Census Head Believes Unemployment Exaggerated -PHILA. Pa.-According to Harry J. Inber, chief supervisor of the con- trol team, Mr. Inber, nearly exaggerated. Mr. Inber, said. "Unemployment in this city is not as widespread as people would have believe, or else people are withholding the fact that they are out of work." "My children have been an iron bond between my husband, Charles, and I," declared Mrs. Elsie Blundon Pitts, 1303 Druid Hill Avenue, mother of eighteen, to an AFRO reporter when interviewed this week. "Our children, coupled with the fact that we have cultivated and developed many common interests, is largely responsible for our marital happiness. There are so many things that I have learned to use for the preservation of our happiness, that one would need a volume to record them all. It has been necessary for both of us to sacrifice many things to assure each other's contentment," said Mrs. Pitts. Never Shirked "Another thing that has contributed to our happiness is, my husband never shirked the responsibilities of providing for a large family. I have shown, my appreciation for these kindnesses and his devotion by being as conical as possible." "To give you a clear idea of what our marriage has been, probably I should begin at the beginning of our life together," said Mrs. Flies. "We were married October 25, 1883, by the Rev. Herkins Ross, then pastor of Bremen Church, and we had a very quiet wedding, but to us it was very sacred. From the very first, we began running our home on what you now call a budget. This went alonely as long as our family remained small, but with the addition of the third member our plans were steadily altered and each new arrival brought about a change in our program. However, we missed out on problems and together we were always able to work out a solution. "My husband does the provision and I do the managing of the home. I am a teacher and my band is never burdened with household duties which are borese to me. My children were trained as possible to assist me in these duties. Large Families "My advice to all couples is to rear children. They not only are a pleasure, but provide a common interest for the two parents. They read books for the children of older needs a magnet to bring the parents closer." Hughand Talks "Keep your head, and trust in God," said Mr. Pitts. "Try not to be irritable. Be pleasant, otherwise many pleasant moments are spotted. Do not be angry about smiling, be friendly. Be eager to each other and smile. If your wife spends more than you think is proper for her to spend, smile just the sarcise." Referring to a song he had just heard his daughter sing. "A Little Kiss Before Morning, A Little Kiss Each Time, Mr. Pitts says that is just the thing to do. Mr. and Mrs. Pitts said that neither of them cared for dancing nor card playing, but that their interests were mainstays of their realizations. Both like to keep up with current topics and accordingly read newspapers a great deal. Published every Saturday in The Afton-America Ballroom, Mc. M. by THE APRO- AMERICAN COMPANY. CARL J. MURPHY.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (1905) * Considerable comment has been made because ex-Congressman Murray was convicted and sentenced to prison. Critics declared it was done because he was a colored man. because he was a representative. If it be any consolation to the ex-representative to know it, he is not alone. Two United States senators have been convicted and sent to prison within the past two years. Both of them were white. J. N. Muffey Editor and Publisher, 1892-1922. The Parker Case Seventeen Republican Senators at a luncheon last week protested against the confirmation of Judge John J. Parker, white, of North Carolina, as an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme This word, carried to President Hoover, is said to have brought the reply that the Senators are unduly alarmed over the revolt of labor and the Negro and the white might be regu- "One Senator, representing a state where the Negro vote is large," say the press reports, "said that he intended to follow the administration and support Judge Parker, and discount the revolt. Very likely the Senator referred to is Phillips Lee Goldsborough (Rep, Md.) who wrote to the AFRO on April 16: "I feel bound, in the light of the information now in my possession, to vote for his (Judge Goldsborough) confirmation." "I feel bound, in the light of the information now in my possession, to vote for his (Judge Parker's) confirmation." However, while President Hoover and Senator Goldsborough support for the Supreme Court a Southerner who opposes the right of the Negro to vote and is willing to have the U.S. Constitution nullified on this point, three colored speakers in the uptown section of the capital expressed different views. Bishop W. T. Vernon, said: "... tell him (President Hoover) unless there is a change, we will go nishing or vote for someone else next November. Mr. John R. Hawkins — November Manager whose post-election recommendations to President Hoover were disregarded — directs his words to Postmaster General Brown, "You haven't wanted me as much since election as you did before." Bishop W. A. Fountain said: "Hoover has turned us over to the Ku Klux Klan in the South." It may be that the AFRO-AMERICAN is unable to recognize a good-sized wave of dissatisfaction when it sees one, nevertheless we think we see one now.

A Canadian Drubbing The Ku Klux Klan is dead in Canada. Its death sentence was read out by the First Division Court, sitting in Toronto last week. Mr. H. A. Phillips, white, fined fifty dollars and costs for leading a masked band into the home of Mr. Ira Johnson at Cakville and abiding his white sweetheart, appealed his case to this higher court and received a three-month jail sentence in addition to the original sentence. Said the court, commenting on the KKK demonstration: "The motive is immaterial, their action was unlawful, and it is the duty of this court to pronounce appropriate punishment." Reading this, members of the Toronto Klan must have padded their masks and gowns away. They must be needed except for parades in the U.S.A. Canada, once the refuge for runaway slaves who traveled by way of the Underground Railroad, is still an asylum for the Negro. There, after a century, the law is still supreme and the rights of the lowly are safeguarded.

Taking Advice Mayor Broening muffed his eight chance to name a colored representative on the Baltimore school board last week. He appointed Mr. Adelson E. Mullinil, white, to the vacancy caused by the death of the late Warren S. Seipp, white, the mayor ever gave anybody an impression that he meant to give one-seventh of the city population representation on this important board, it is evident now that it was but an impetus. At the city hall it was reported that Mr. Broening sought advice on the subject last week and was reminded that he may be a candidate for governor at the fall election and therefore should do nothing which should make him politically aware to the Eastern Shore of the state, to backward section of Maryland that skilled to Dinki in illiteracy and pettiness, including race prejudice. Too bad, indeed, that other friends did not advise Mr. Broening that his former law partner, Mr. Harry Nice, lost the gubernatorial election a few years ago by some two years. Maryland Negroes have weed out difficult in the past years. They have been compelled to choose between Democrats like Governor Ritchie, who appoints no Negro policemen or other office-holders and Republicans like Mayor Broening, who appoints one or two — their places. It is a far cry from Maryland Democrats like Mr. Ritchie to a Massachusetts Democrat like Mayor Curley or a New Yorker like Maya Walker. It is a long sea mile from Baltimore Republican Mayor Broening to Chicago's Bill Thompson. Manifestly, if Baltimore is to get Negro police and firemen, and if Negroes are to get a proper proportion of municipal and state jobs, voters must get chance to put the Ritchies and the Burmese out and give their places to young and more liberal white men, who can comprise one of the fundamentals of our government that taxation without representation is tyranny.

Maryland Negroes have voted under difficulties in the past years. They have been compelled to choose between Democrats like Governor Ritchie, who appoints no Negro policemen or other Negro office-holders and Republicians like Mayor Browning, who appoints one or two — to minor places. It is a far cry from Maryland Democrats like Mr. Ritchie to a Massachusetts Democrat like Mayor Curley or in New Yorker like Mayor Walker.

News from Georgia President Hoover has been in office over 72hr. during which time his lily-wild henchmen have controlled patronage in Georgia and do everything possible to kill, politically, Mr. Be Davis, former G.O.P. National Committeeman. Last week Senator Brockhart (Rep. Minn. referred to Mr. Davis and his right-hand supporter, John Martin, white, as "gratters." Nevertheless, Mr. Davis was sufficiently scat the state Republican Convention Saturday to sign their own book of temporary officers. This no good news for Washington which would its opponents to stay down when knocked out. President Hoover has been in office over a year, during which time his lily-white henchmen have controlled patronage in Georgia, everything possible to Mr. Ben's request. O.P. National Committeeman. Last week Senator Brockart (Rep., Minn.) referred to Mr. Davis and his right-hand supporter, John Martin, white, as "grafters." Nevertheless, Mr. Davis was sufficiently strong at the state level to right the convention and have his faction elect their own set of temporary officers. This is no good news for Washington which would like its opponents to stay down when knocked out. Asterisks at $25,000 Each An Asheville (N.C.) white policeman, in a suit against the publishers of the city directory says he has been damaged to the extent of $100,000. $25,000. Mr. Lon Powers, white, plaintiff, claims that the city directory publishes his name with an arrest in front of it, which is the symbol employed to denote citizens of the Negro race. At twenty-five dollars a week, Lon the cop, will hardly earn $25,000 in twenty years, body in his community knows his wife and his parents were white before him. He still has his job and air his life. The court will probably recognize that the claim grows out of a mere mistake, and award the policeman fifty dollars to salve his feelings. A California Scripps-Howard newspaper is contesting a similar suit, also the result of a mistake. An increase in the number of such law suits will mean that newspapers and directories will discontinue references to race because of the hazard. No asterisk is worth twenty-five thousand dollars or even fifty dollars. and the Baltimore city directory, which formerly dignified Negroes by an asterisk, has already abandoned the practice. President Hoover declared that opposition to Judge J. J. Parker on the Supreme Court is political. Well, maybe the President will tell us what caused him to nominate Parker aside from the fact that North Carolina went Republican two years ago.

In the event that such will be the case, I would suggest that the following personnel be appointed: Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Envy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary; Manning C.

To the Editor: The so-called Books of Moses were not written by Moses. Their language did not exist in his age. They record his death and burial (Deut. 34:5-6) and refer to persons of a later date. Jud. 10:3-4. A life of Washington naming Lincoln The so-called Books of Moses were not written by Moses. Their language did not exist in ancient age. They record the stories of people to persons of a later date. Jud. 10:3-4. A life of Washington named Lincoln can not be by Washington. For, too, the Books of Moses did not write the five books, see "The Bible" by Remsburg. They were produced centuries later, and are of a composite character, being written over the four sources. For forty-two proofs that Moses did not write these five books, see "The Bible" by Remsburg. They were produced centuries later, and are of a composite character, being compiled, after the Babylonian captivity, from four sources. The internal evidence of all these phrases and thoughts occurs throughout *Hikilah* "finding" of these books (Kings 22:8) was a pious fraud. Bible scholars have declared against Mosaic authorship.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, April 26, 1930 BLACK OR WHITE By NONA EVANS THOMASON Color is only skin deep. What does it matter if it is black or white? If it be black or white "I want to be a poet—not a Negro poet," Mr. Langston Hughes was informed by a promising young contemporary Mr. Hughes thinks the young man wants to be white because he wants to be a poet and not be black. a Negro poet. Perhaps Mr. Hughes is right that young man may be unfortunate enough to want to be white. Maybe N-grows here and there who nothing they are not. Perhaps Mr. Hughes is right that young man will be unfortunate enough to want to be white. We can still find N groes here and there who want to be something they are not. Should Mr. Hughes ask me what I wanted to be, I too would say: "I want to be a writer—not a Negro writer," however I do not mean by this that I want to be white or any other color. want to be softerhand. Should Mr. T. ask me what I wanted to be, should I say: "I want to be a writer-not a Negro writer," however I do not mean by this that I want to be whits or any other color. No Handicap. I want to write about the things that interest me enough to kindle the story. I write about the story by the fact that I know the things and should write only about Negroes or things that are of interest to Negroes or things other. I want to write about the things that interest me enough to knit the fire of desire in me write and not be handicapped if that I am a Negro and should only about Negroes or things that interest to Negroes alone. I believe a true poet, like a painter, sees other things to inspire him to write and not just the things that will mark him as a painter once. On my way, I was in front of a telephone, I noticed a man in front of me selling papers that carried an interesting article, and the way he was telling the world at large about this, he caused me to jot down that about this boy. Had I told me that I was only a Negro writer, and have written these lines. Extra! Extra! Extra! I heard before me the matter of little feet, and saw a red head boy running up the street, a common sight at the close of day—Suddenly he cried: "Extra! Extra! Extra!" A thousand times you heard them cry As they hurriedly passed by Many a time you heard them say, "Another boy, Extra! Extra! Extra!" On every buyer he smiled with joy; he was an interesting newsboy; a funny sight it was to see His face as he cried: "Extra! Extra! Extra!" Newsboy now; but soon a man Who'll buy his papers from a news-stand And with a smile remain the day When he too cried: "Extra! Extra! Extra!" Living in it so hard as I do, I seldom see a color boy on the street crying, "Extra! Extra! Extra! I am afraid had I waited for a colored newsboy to inspire me to write about him, I never would have written those lines. Not a Poet. I am not a poet and perhaps never will be one; but I enjoy writing. I call what I write, times, because I know far too little and am afraid to trochee, dimeter, trimeter to term of the many other things that go with poetry to term any-that I write anything more than mere lines. I cannot resist the urge within me to write. I write with the hope that some Negro girl who is a born child will take care of something worthwhile. I firmly believe that no race is better suited to give the world real poets than my own race. The American Negro, whose blood is a mixture of every civilized race in the world, is full of love, hate and passion and these things a real poet Living in the North as I do, I seldom see a colored newsboy on the street play. I am afraid had I waited for a colored newsboy to inspire him, but I him, I never would write these lines. Not a Poet. I am not a poet and perhaps never will be one, but I enjoy writing. I call what I write, "lines," because I know far too little about amble, trochee, dimeter, trimeter, or any of other things that go with poetry to term anything that I write anything more than mere miles, cannot resist the urge within me to write. I write with the hope that some Negro boy or girl who is a born poet, seeing the lines, will take juvenile and write something worthwhile. I firmly believe that no race is better suited to give the world real poets than my own race. The American Negro, whose blood is a mixture of every civilized race in the world, is full of love, hate and passion and these things a real poet needs. Just as the white newsboy inspired me to write a poem, so a little brown baby caused me to write these: Brown Baby. Brown baby why are you so sweet? My how you giggle! When I tickle your dimpled feet, Now look at you wiggle, Just a little pig— With your fingers in my hair, I wish you would never grow big But let me keep you always there. Brown baby, you are making fun of me; I see it in your eyes. Could not a white or yellow man or woman have written these lines as well as me? Passion. I tremble as I approach you; I lose my self control; *This fire in my breast may not be love true,* Is passable now? Iow Then this is my sit and thine. Hate. He! ha! you do not know me now. The broken toy you throw away? Will you give me a smile, a bow? I told you I'd return some day. What! not even a friendly nod? Then I must get revenge. This big danger has sent you back to God! He will judge which one of us has sinned. If Mr. Hughes should see this I trust he won't think that because I say, "I want to be a writer —not a Negro writer," that I want to change the color of my skin." Boston, Mass. Senators Seek to Confirm Parker in Secret Session. To the Editor: I am enclosing herewith a copy of the telegram that I sent to Senator James Watson concerning the confirmation of Judge John J. Parker. It appears to me that the majority of the Republican Senate has agreed to allow how to judge Parker without disclosing how the individual senator voted. Such confirmation would show conclusively that the Negro can no longer rely upon the Republican party for the recognition of his rights, and that he is guaranteed him by the United States Constitution and Amendments thereto, much less the enforcement of the same. Therefore, I feel that the progressive Negro of the United States must rely upon your paper to be recognized by the Negro out of the wilderness; and that you should call upon the Negro leaders who so ably championed Mr. Hoover's cause to acknowledge to their colored constituents that they not only made a misjudgment in his cause, they did.

Congressmen from 19 Southern States Draw $1,800,000 Every Year in Salaries to Misrepresent the Negro, who is as Voteless Today as 66 Years Ago. To the Editor: Today the eight millions of Negroes in the South have no more representation in the House of Representatives and the Senate of the United States than the four millions of slaves had when they had nothing. Now they have more representation to read or write, nor were allowed to read or write, or were qualified intellectually. Then the national representatives were getting $2,500 and $5,000 annually, to snort their oratory to keep the Negroes in slavery. They would even make supplications to the Divine Providence palliation for their Negroes; now they get ten thousand dollars a year each, of the people's At a glance it may be presumed that these sums come from the payers of the nation, but consider it as an applied fact—the Negro citizens of these states pay these salaries in taxes and a The following amounts are what pseudo-representatives receive annually from the Federal Government, of the people's money for misrepresenting at least one-third of the citizens of the states in the South.

Christophe's $750,000 Jewelled Crown The passing of Louis Borno and the election of Eugene Roy on Monday of this week to become temporary president of the Haitian republic recalls the rapid trend of affairs not only in this little nation, but throughout the world. In the National Bank of Haiti still reposes the $750,000 jeweled crown which the spectacular ruler Christophe wore when he governed the people of that country in the manner he had learned from his white European contemporaries. Wearing this jeweled crown he could look down from a gorgeous palace, high upon an almost inaccessible cliff, upon a peasant life so poor as to make it easy for them in their misery to choose between living and a revolutionary death. They learned soon that tyranny may be black as well as white, just as the present generation of Haitians learned that light-skinned Negro rulers could set up color bars as rigid as right or more pale-faced babies as sisters. Roy is sensible and breaks down the old world ideals which thrived upon exploitation, he will not only do a great thing for the Haitians but for this miserably governed world of ours. Mrs. Van Lear Black, white, well known civil-spirited woman, told an AFRO-AMERICAN reporter that we are not paying proper consideration to that considerable group of our workers termed domestic servants. Somehow, according to Mrs. Block, our educational system is not clicking to make practical workers in the modern home. Statistics in the office of this paper have given us a job recently on this very question. Whatever we have surmised is happening in the ranks of Negro labor, cold facts reveal the number of domestic and personal servants among women at least, is on the increase. During the period from 1910 to 1920, while women engaged in farm work decreased from 52.2 per cent, of the total gainfully employed, to 39 per cent, those in domestic and personal work decreased to 50.3 per cent. Today they form the largest working group of Negro women. WHATEVER, THEREFORE, WE CAN DO INCREASE THEIR WAGES. MAKE THEIR WORKING CONDITIONS BETTER AND HELP TO MAKE THEM MORE EFFICIENT, SHOULD HAVE OUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. They are bringing into the Negre race money from an outside source, and it is only money from an outside source which counts in the real development of a group, people or nation. Every doctor, every lawyer, every business or professional man and woman, should see this in mind. Our League League, every X.M.C.A. and Y.W.C.A. should direct at least 50 per cent of their activities towards making life happier for the women and their families who make up this valuable economic group. We must not stand by and allow neglect and indifference to kill the goose which lays the golden egg. Gangmen in the Religious World. Just how far greed and selfishness has saturated at least one religious organization was demonstrated last week when Mr. E. D. Pierson, for years an auditor of the National Baptist Convention, impatiently told to have been "taken for a ride" by gangster methods, was found mortally wounded after he had unearthed alleged irregularities in financial affairs of that body. To understand this occurrence, one must go back a number of years to the time when the great National Baptist Convention in this country and when a number of Baptist leaders, some of them looking with lustful eyes at the money possibilities in grabbing the National Baptist Publishing Board which the late R. H. Boyb built up as a part of the convention machinery, started out This event, followed by a fight which squeezed nearly all the brotherly love out of the denomination, was the turning point in the Baptist objectives for a large body of able leaders, especially did young ministers come into the active work of the body. The National Baptist Convention commenced its development thru a number of boards which have become political prizes and which have naturally attracted them. They pay good salaries, and like the denomination as a whole, is each a little kingdom unto itself. In addition, the great Baptist body has been so unwieldy that its best minds have not been able to weld it into a practical organization. The natural result has been that while its members are willing to spend half a million or more dollars each year, its members have not been during the last twenty years to put a half million dollars into the schools that they have been trying to establish. At the base of the Baptist denomination, there is some real religion. Its membership forms one of the most unselfish groups on the face of the earth; they follow leadership and they will sacrifice their lives almost for their churches. But the rottenness is creating in the top. Politics and greed are rampant. This unusual outbreak of gangster tactics is only the result of sowing the wind and reaping the whirlwind. Some day we will not need our present cumbersome form of religious machinery to keep men and women in the narrow path but it is still too deeply rooted into the lives and destinies of human beings to ignore. Let us hope that the Plierson tragedy brings leaders and champions stop, look and listen, before religious leadership drives its influence out of the hearts of younger men and women. SOLDIER OF 1776 WED CAROLINA COLORED GIRL White Soldier of General Cornwallis's Army Drank Some of His Colored Sweetheart's Blood Before Marriage in Order to Be Able to Marry Her Legally. Bv JOSEPH SEWELL in Raleigh (N.C.) Observer Joseph Butler (white), a member of Cornwall's army, was severely wounded in the battle of Guilford, March 15. 1781. In Cornwall's retreat toward Eastern North Carolina Butler became a straggler and was lost from the English army. He was succeeded by a free mulatto woman, who hid him in her home until the surrender of the English army the following During Butler's confinement he was faithfully nursed by the daughter of his benefactress, who was nearly white, and there between them two sisters. If it was the young woman, and he was greatly distressed upon realizing that, under the laws of North Carolina, wed the woman, she was—she was blood in her, and Butler was a full-blooded white man. Hid in the Home of His Sweetheart Butler remained at the home of his sweetheart in an unfrequent part of the country, and cultivated the small farm where he lived—isolated and ignored, an alien enemy, a nugitive hiding under a Negro's roof. He finally conceived and immediately acted upon a plan to inward the law which forbade him marrying the warman he loved. In those times the "letting of blood" was regarded almost as a panacea in the treatment of all bodily ailments. The mutuat girl was, for some physical disorder, bled by a surgeon. Her sympathizing wound was at hand during the operation, and to the astonishment of the surgeon, deliberate knack an appreciable porth of the patient's blood. He immediately departed and upon his return exhibited his musculature and his mulit- sweetheart. He had gone to the proper official, made affidavit that he had Negro blood in him, and had married him, marry a half-Negro woman. Rev John J. Young, 78. Baptist Rev John now living in Boston, the English soldier. His grand-father, Thomas Blackall, had this interesting his- self. Thomas Blackall was born in Granville County, North Carolina, considerably over a century ago, as the chattel of John Blackall, a slave owner in the town. Tom Blackall is not only a remarkable Negro, he was a remarkable man. Under apprenticeship provided by his master. Tom became a baker smith and baker maker of baked or local renown or permitted to keep his business and "buy his time." It is history in the Blacknall family that he was absent from home at intervals of a year, without mission, and that, with his permission, went away as far as peddling his bells and pluing his trade. Ton Blacknall, the slave, was permitted to save his earnings and buy his freedom. The price paid for freedom was $900. He wished purchase of a house of his wife, three sons, tasting title to all of his ransomped family, in himself. He afterwards purchased three additional slaves. Had Blacknall's wife given birth to other children, which does not seem to have occurred, children would have been masters of their father. Children first wife died in de facto desertion to her husband he afterwards married a Nerro. He died in 1863 and by the terms of his will his three sons passed to the ownership of their respective sons who were free Negro women. Evidently he believed in reciprocity in the marital relation. His first wife had been his de facto slave made his sons, and also his sons of their wives. shaves, the sea scallion Annoise, the sounding thing about Tom Blacknall is that he was a Negro deacon in a white Presbyterian church. church. This, and the fact that he frequently led the white congregations in prayer, are established to my en-satisfaction.

A Deck of Cards is Bible, Prayer Book, Almanac Richard Lane, a private in the 42nd foot troops of the "Black Watch" of the British army early in the 18th century, was brought before the mayor and lord protector of Glasgow charged with playing cards during divine service. He said he had no Bible or prayer book and was using his pack of cards instead of them. When asked to explain what he meant he answered: "When I see the ace, it reminds me of the One God, the deuce recalls the Father and the Son; the trey the three persons of the Four the four-spot, reminds me of the four virgins; the six of the five wise virgins; the six of the days of creation; the seven, of the seventh day the Sabbath; the eight recalls the righteous persons in the Ten nine the unrighteous in the Ten 10 kingdoms. The king suggests the King of Heaven; the queen the Queen of Sheba who sought wisdom from Solomon. The knave (jack)"—here he hesitates being urged, went on, the knave for the constable who arrested me. The mayor interrupted to remark that the constable seemed to have been a fool, even though no knight. The soldier continued to knight 385 plus the pack, which included the days of the year; 52 cards receive for each week; 12 face cards one for each month, and the 13 tricks represent the number of weeks in a quarter. Thus the pack of cards serves as a plaque, a prayer book and a memorial. I think it was M. Teale, who edits "The Proofread," a section in the Inland Printer, who disparagingly said that it seems that we will be obliged to accept the phrase "different than" (for "different from"), since so many people persist in making the blunder. In the same category, probably, is the supposed word "alright" (for "all right"), and other so-called sights that be mentioned. So, too, the slipshod newspapers are getting people used to the formation of the possession of "such" as "Jones," by adding merely an apostrophe, thus yielding forms like this—"Jones" dog was killed. Even the ones can scarcely say that forms are definitely wrong, though, probably, no writer who could by any stretch of toleration garped as such would fail to include the additional "s" after the apostrophe, when "Jones" is singular. Two reasons, probably, are the faulty practice; the fact that the teacher DO form the possessive that way ("the boys' teacher"); and second, the feeling that the multiplied "s" sounds are unpleasant. As to the first reason, it should be noted that "bays" is shown by the position of the apostrophe and only thus do we know whether not it is singular or plural; and were we not so familiar with the name "Jones", we would in the case cited, support this notion. That was "Jone" and that more that one "Jone" was unified in the ownership. Improvements in the language are welcome—many are needed—but mere looseness, no matter how common it is, not only to further looseness, but to further looseness. Thus, the time may come when, in order to make exact and unambiguous statements, we shall be obliged to round about the record of the tuesdays the jones must; it is said certain the jones must; i.e. than one Jones is involved in the ownership of the doe and we wish to make that clear, we need to write that record like this: Jones for, by Mr. and Mrs Jones was killed." Waving Hands, Frivolous Hips Saturday night we traveled to Harlem to witness our first "drag." A "drag," you probably know by now, unless you're a homebody, is an affair where the rouged lads of the waving hands and frivolous hips parade in lavish gowns and discuss their sewing problems. This particular affair lured hundreds of spectators who paid $2 each for the privilege on seeing her. The dress was a white wig, a prize for a Bird of Paradise costume while the other contestants, all Caucasian, pouted and scratched at each other. During the festivities, a lad dressed in a baby blue sports costume was brought over to be introduced. The dress would be to be dressed in a dress house. "I'm a perfect thickenet," he announced, in modest tones, "and there'n better to that. 'Td love better than to mow. That he added wistfully, 'if it thut'!' Gaining no reassurance from us he reached under his skirt, pulled out a flask and asked us to sampla its contents. "I can tend you up a case of thith for $65," he lithped hopefully. N. Y. Graphic.

The looks of a dog betrays his pedigree. Many White People Prefer to Remain Just Colored One Drop or Two of Colored Blood Sufficient to Keep Them in the Negro Race. Like Fast Blak-, They Do Not Run. By J. A. ROGERS Everybody has troubles of his own. The Negro race has problems of its own and the white race has a Negro problem. There is a great deal of difference between the Negro problem and the Negro's problem. The Negro problem is white America's greatest social and political problem. The white man has to solve the Negro problem and the Negro has to solve the Negro's problem. The Negro problem which the white man has to solve is "HOW CAN WE THEN HAVE HAW TO KEEP the NEGRO OUT?" Verily, this problem is the white man's "mare" by night and his "hobby" by day. The Negro problem is "HOW TO GET IN WHERE as a CITIZEN and as a M A N HE RIGHTFULLY BELOWS?" America Wished This Problem White America wished its problem on itself away back in 1619 and it was being worked pretty well until 1665 when White America has been having a time of it trying to solve the unsolvable and work the unworkable. In 1665 the Negro was a "thing" and he was a "thing apart" from the constituted government. Since 1665 the Negro has been fighting to become" a part of the "thing" and has been hand, for nearly 70 years, white America has been racking its brains trying to find a way to make the Negro "a part of the thing" and get the situation under control. White America wants the Negro near enough to be a part of the democracy in war and in close elections and then be automatically "going part" soon as either of these struggles is over. Problem is to Keep Negro in His Place Since the Negro cannot be kept out the problem is how to find his place in America and make him stay there. That's the Negro problem, so far as the majority of white America is concerned. But that is the thing that gives trouble. He keeps on moving somewhere or somehow and it keeps up. He moves America moving. Negroes run white people out of house and home; they run them out of communities; out of churches; out of schools; out of schools; helping it difficult to stop the Negro from running after what the Negro wants. Negroes are paving clearly for what they want, but they are running right along. 10,000 Colored People Now White About ten thousand of them have actually caught up to the white race in color (white Negroes) and have either been forced to or they make excursions into when they desire. You know the only thing it takes to get into the white race is color, and the particular race they really helped the Negro qualify for entrance. After all, the white race helps the Negro in more ways than one. These ten thousand have gotten a chance to make these excursions into the white race had it not been for the tremendous help which the Negro has given to stay and that much of the problem is solved forever unless nature stages a comeback here and there. Some white Negroes have answered the call Thousands. Like Fast Black. Do Not Run Here's hoping that the Negro blood in them will not retrace it steps and throw a shadow to the ground. How does the Negro feel about this gradual exodus? Feel? They feel like saying well there is something gone, but not哪 Of course there are thousands of white Negroes who "do not choose to leave their mother race. That one drop of Negro blood is too strong. It holds them. They are fast black. They do not run.

I.L.D. to Aid Boy in Shadow of Gallows NEW YORK—Charles McPherson, 19, who is facing the gallows after an indictment for assault at Crescent Springs, Kentucky, by a grand jury, will be defended by the International Labor Defense, which is now appealing to workers to demand his immediate release. McPherson, who lives in Cincinnati, went to visit his parents in Georgia. He was hiked back when he was killed by Crescent Springs, where Negroes are not permitted to live. In search of food, he knocked on a door which was opened by a white woman. She screamed. A lynching was narrowly averted. The woman at first claimed that McPherson attacked her in front of a 14-year-old girl. She later said it happened in the office. The later statement disregarded the fact that the university disregarded the conflicting statements and charged the youth with assault.

Dr. Errol Collymore, dentist, and Dr. William Collymore, standing their ground and say they will not be driven out, though both have received threatening letters and on the morning of April 16, a fiery cross was burned on the lawn of Dr. Collymore. Herbert J. Seligman, N.A.A.C.P. was on White Plains on the night of Anil 16, accompanied by William T. Andrews, the association's special legal assistant, and there addressed a gathering of prominent persons, including three leading clergy members, the clerks and others. It was pointed out by the N.A.A.C.P. representatives that the association would need to train men to live peacefully in their homes and that if necessary, an appeal would be made to Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt for state troops to maintain order in White Paper. Early P. Hite, white attorney, representing nearby whites, said that the moving of the two doctors into the hospital would require the market five hundred white homes in the neighborhood and destroyed their value." John A. Ross attorney representing the hospital said that they might sell at a big profit, but they were in no hurry, as any section into which they moved would likely stage some opposition. The properties are estimated to be worth $100 million, Mr. Ross said he was particularly interested in the attempt to write a Negro exclusion clause into the deeds for the surrounding property. "Nothing would give me more pleasure than to negotiate a purchase of such property for a colored man and then let his neighbors try to enforce the exclusion of the United States Supreme Court."

Prison Camps NEW YORK—According to the Department of Justice, the jails of the of the country are over-crowded. But according to the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, of which Dr. Robert A. Alexander, the prevailing ex-convict, has had little or no effect upon colored people in the South. Says the commission: "In Georgia the Department of Welfare reports that there were few Negroes in the school and 17 per cent less than in 1924. Negroes provided 66 per cent of Georgia's jail population in 1924. Negroes in Georgia five years ago, says the report, 'there were two Negroes in jail in Georgia to each white man; now in the numbersvitrum the numbers are practically even.' "South Carolina shows a decided trend in the same direction, and many reports from North Carolina have indicated that a group given out by the State Board of Welfare show that in every year from 1910 to 1920 more Negroes than whites were committed to the penitentiary since 1920 the reverse has been true. "An investigation recently made by the University of North Carolina makes it clear at least that educated Negroes were the prison population of that State. Of 1,036 Negro convicts in thirty-three county prison camps it was found that not one had received as much as a prison sentence and that 34 per cent were illiterate."

Homes DARKER RAGES WATCH GANDHI'S STRUGGLE Success Would Mean Weak- ening of White Domination Everywhere ENGLAND FEARFUL Existence Not Thinkable with- out Indian Market PARIS, (Afro Bureau)—Events now happening in India are of great im- portance to all colored people the world over. If Gandhi succeeds it will mean the weakening of white domination everywhere. Edward Helsey, special correspondent for Le Journal, now with Gandhi in India writes: "If Gandhi triumphs it will be a signal for a general uprising of all the races, yellow, red, and black, whica we have been holding so easily in check for such a long time." Loss of India will mean the downfall of England, says Helsley, and adds: 'India is necessary to England which will have world politics has been built up during the last two centuries on the possession of the vast Indian empire. England is a market in India for the country, which nothing could compensate her. Deprived of India, England will practically cease to exist. She will have a secret force, even of her means of subsistence as Sarzon when short of his locks. 'Can you imagine a world from India, and has disappeared? Is it almost, impossible. Once this main pillar is knocked from under, the whole English edifice will come down. It is hardly possible to doubt.' Apart from the fact that the East Indians are of distant Negro ancestry, and that there are also some 60,000,000 people in India who are closer to the Negro than a large number of Americans, Gandhi will be of special interest. He was also his treatment as a colored man while practising law in South Africa that first stirred him to agitation against England. Ga. G.O.P.

"Prophet," he say, "did I go crazy and marry dat strumpet, or did I just go crazy" Daniel Stops Lions A new introduction of the story of Daniel and the Lions' Den is also contained in the volume. King Nebuchadnezzar, it seems, was tricked by Salome into feeding Daniel to the lions. Daniel, when informed of his fate, is reported as saying: "Daniel, when informed of Daniel, 'I kind or hoped I'd live to revive dat gal and git her on yo's side. But ifn't hits on de cyards din. I'm old and git him din. Old Saint Peter I wears a six-and-seven-eights size crown, and I likes my wings middlin' big." So Daniel was fed to the lions at night, and when Salome came out in the morning and found him in the biggest lion in the cage she said: "Well, doggon old Miz Mitchell'! say Salomely. Err dat boy and marry dat strumpet, or did I just go crazy pyrone tame! Big! I didn't know you was a line-tamer." "Not me," say Daniel, "Me and de Lawd." **David and Back Biling** It seems that old King David had been warned by the Lord's Apostle, siming, saying, "O Lord, save my sons, old mills, old king, upn to his Hear the Best!

I'm genter live like a rounder And room I'm town to town." Admired by Micaiah, the prophet for his bitter attitude toward the institution of marriage, Ahab is reported as saying: "Who, so, ain't the marryin' king Priest. Hits' seventy-some odd widder women in its town settin' on de doorsteps, waitin' for me to come and marry 'em up. And dis time next week he will be to seventy-some odd more." Meets Jezebel But one day Micaiah introduced Ahab to Jebecel, who is described as "a buckish, hush-haled gal, who dances like hit ain't a shame left in dc world." And it was not long before he met Jebecel, that they were married. As a sort of wedding gift, the king suggested that he would buy his bride a pair of stockings. "And what else you gonter buy now, Jebecel. " "Ui-uhh!" say Ahab. "Dat don't sound like country-gal tawk to me." "I can't help, what hit don't sound like, big boy," say Jebelee, "You better listen at me whilst I tawk. Stockin' faint! faint! to buy me.

The society is kept up by funds subscribed mostly by the Americans living in recently the demands are so great that they are getting weary of giving.

Both groups had declared war on the "color line," Harlem and Greenwich Village being the only two sections of Manhattan known to be in accord with the centers immediately after the centers for activities, leaving poor Broadway, with its stiff bosomed shirts and suavely efficient waiters, holding the well known bag.

The number was that soul stirring Russian love lyric "Ook Libert" or in English, "Ook Eyes." The so- lost was that only colored member of the theater—Krue Morris. Ernie has been a member of the troupe for five years. He has traveled with them all over the world, having just returned from a triumph tour of the Continent where the gans visited England, France, Belgium, Ireland, Germany, Belgium and played in principal theaters in some of these countries. before Ernie joined Minnevich and his gang, he was a printer, but he had a yearning to play the harmonica. So when the Wurlitzer organ people held a contact to bring these chaps, Ernie jumped in the opportunity, and now he is the solist of the twelve piece ensemble. Married Philly Girl Shortly before making the trip abroad, Erie, who is *i*. New York lad, reticent and loath to talk about himself, married and married while playing at the Standard Theater in that city. He took Mrs. Morris abroad with him on their honeymoon. He took Mrs. Morris on a solid booking of thirty-five weeks on the Publix Theater circuit, eliminating the Southern houses which are not particular about having a wife, and the bill with white performers. This is the South's loss. But before this edict was put into effect, Erie had played in the theaters in Dallas and scored not a bie but a bie, but a personal亿lumph as well. Tribute from Ash Not only does Mr. Minneich think well of Ernie, but Paul Ash, regarded as the leading musician to sage, had ordered to sav. He has just given Ernie a photograph upon which is inscribed, "To Ernie, a real artist and a regular follower. Paul Thus, the premier colored harmonica virtuoso blazes a pioneer trail. Mr Morris told the writer that there are only about forty notes on the harmonica they use in music, but produce it by some ninety tones. He is able to make these ninety tones. In doing "Ochi Cherni!" he plays the air four tones below the normal register of the harmonica, which itself is a feat, developed and perfected in actual in that he is featured as a member of this troupe, theatergoers marvel at the perfect tones produced on the lowly instrument, and what makes it all the more marvelous is the fact that the Minneapolis band is the soloist. Beat that for the unusual in the theatrical lines! New "Blackbirds" Lew Leslie announces that serious work on his new "Blackbirds" will begin in September.

NEW YORK—When Will Morrissey's "Follies Bergere Revue," a black and white company, opened at the Cansevort Theatre in Greenwich Village, last week, the music by Eubie Blake, former Baltimore pianist-composer, afforded the reviewers an opportunity to use superlatives. Blake wrote all of the music, all of which is considered excellent, but the tunes rating the most comment were "Loving You The Way," "Tropical Man," and "The Man." Among the cast in the cast are Jules Jones, Elise Bennett, Sam Paire and the Three Black Aces, a dancing trio. The dances were arranged by Nat Cash.

Harlem Miller, the most popular of the new to see about "Tom, Dick and Harry," the newest musical play called for in her contract with Flo Ziegfeld. Martlyn is one of the three Broadwaywriters who enjoy the distinction of being the most popular of the nightlife circles in the theatrical and nightlife circles of Harlem. The other two fortunate young ladies are Helen Morgan and Anne Pennington. Anne, incidentally, is the only one of the four unquestionable entries into the more exclusive "gilmill" (bepardon) "speakeasy" circles without retaining sepia escort (which she nevertheless, is seldom without). Winston Dormer from the Wisconsin reporter from the Daily News is the one Nordic male who boasts a similar privilege and is rivaled only by Lee "Harlemania" Posen of the Roxx and Jack Markowitz, who, despite the fact that he is not officially connected with a metropolitan "rag" knows more intimate things about the real Harlem than the other boys (columnists included). Jack has crashed more "closed" rent parties (always an accomplishment for an afar) than the other lads have speakases (noted in Harlem for their hourly day hospitality to any and every person who has the price of a "shorty"). Give Them a Break With the coming of these new military drills featuring some new difficult routines, the routine, the chorus girl in these days and the times is far from being a happy one. Yet, it is solidum. One day of the thousand and one theatrical columns, when actually some of them are more deserving of prize than several head-quarters, Not so long ago, we were among those present at the Alhambra Theatre's weekly midnight show and noticed for about the seventh time that a woman was the highlight of the entire presentation. There were several little girls whose work compared to that of one or two stars merited not only a mention, a photograph or a video, but a writer, where he doesn't know the name of the person about whom he wishes to scribble. Very few stage managers, even, know the last names of the actors they direct for weeks. None of these kids expect to remain in the chorus for all time, so why not help them out of the ranks if they are really deserving? What if they least a picture of the play posted in the library, with names to identify the girls. Why give the principals all the breaks? They are already made. What we strive for in the theatre or any non-professional constructive project. This should be of the first step toward that goal. Mae Berkley Back Mae Berkley, the brilliant little star who made such a hit in "Malina," and whose dancing drew the warmest praise from Broadway stars, Kahlene Kirkwood's "Bare Facts of Greenwich village," is back in New York after closing with Clara, Smith's "Black Bottom Revue" in St. Louis. Mae aka Kirkwood, in India, considered a minor one, proved herself an artist of the first calibre by stealing (in true Jack Oakie fashion) the early 1930s show. Mae was most convincing in her creative presentation of the primitive Jungle Dancer, and as soon as the show closed was snatched up by Barron's Club where she played a short engagement before going into the famous Ranebayak robot's "House of Reminiscences". Any cabaret that this young miss selects as the temple in which to offer her primitive praise and an hour of music and rhythm (from the hit down) begins to do a healthy office business.

EVERYBODY: Bang The noise you just heard was the musical clock that started the final lap of Lent. This note is sounded every year at midnight Saturday. Now that Lent and Passion Week has ended with a gala final, things in dance halls will start jumping, and how! The first number will be a short talk by Daniel Sisco, president extravaganza of the Regular Fellows Club. Ladies and gentlemen: In behalf of the Regular Fellows Club of Baltimore, we wish to thank our many friends for the assistance they have given us during the four months. Though their financial aid and we have been able to reach some of the goals we set. But in the future we hope to sponsor better and bigger dances for the entire family from the hostess to the oldest.

Told his friends he's a gang guy, how. he dances the eagle with a knocked-kneed girl. Now, that was really Arthur speaking himself. The reason for the hoarse voice is that he does not smoke a certain kind of alcohol. He smokes other people's constantly—so any brand is acceptable. Regal Theatre Among Those Not Put on Tax Roll GHICAGO. - Omission from the assessment rolls of thirty-one buildings, valued at more than $1,600,000, was disclosed Saturday by a firm making an audit of the reassessment at the order of the chiefman of the state tax commission.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, April 26, 1930 It'sNobody'sBusiness THERE are times in the lives of most all of us, when we run across something that seems to give the lie to the old saying that "There's nothing new under the sun." Such a time came to the conductor of this department last week, when a certain man, who is a teacher by vocation, but who is somewhat of a raconteur, by avocation, rolled off the following short varn. And to the already long list of calamities you may add the man who returning unexpectedly from a trip found another man kissing his wife and then discovered that he had run out of Murad cigarettes.

It's the C Featuring Silver Screen ARRO ARE th beautiful HNICOLOR A If you've heard this one before, stop me, but turn your deaf ear this way. It seems that there was one of these meticulous gentlemen, who after viewing the fall crop of beauties, decided to take to wife one of the town's belies. The girl, accustomed to all of the necessities of this life, and a few luxuries, thrown in for good measure, had listened to the prospective groom tell how much he loved her. So, he could do anything under the sun to cater to her needs. It was a rosy picture that he painted. Accordingly, after the marriage, the bride was surprised one morning when she looked out of the window and saw the coal man coming up the walk, jugging a bushel basket of coal. Stranger still, was the fact that after delivering this bushel, he did not come back with more. Recently calling her husband, the bride, cried: "Henry, you don't mean to tell me that you're only getting a BUSHEL of coal. Why I thought that you would get at least one or two tons." Henry, who had probably exacerbated his ability to "do anything under the sun" for his wife, calmly replied: "There, now, I don't become so called. We'll have more coal, but you know," he confided, lowering his voice to a loud whisper, "I like you to have everything nice and FRESH." Trees a Crowd Al White, who probably knows Harlem as well as anyone, pens the following essays about Avenue: the first, the Tree of Knowledge, and the second, the Tree of Hope.

Later, Lyla, Reggle, Rod, and several others go to the Swamp Hill, a cabaret where the people are in the city. He strikes Rod. The olds return his blow. Lyla thinks Rod is a coward, he she learns differently when he takes her from Wolf. a nstorious gangster who had snatched her from Reggle's arms while they were dancing. Wolf attacks Rod and is knocked out. several of Wolf's henchmen also attack the you, but are有机 just as police said to place. Rod is able to get the girl safely out of the place.

They go to a walk to the school, and Rod gets her into his arms, assisted with her nearness and softness, attaches her hungery, but she aids directly by begging him not to apollize their leave the beach, and as they reach her sidewalk, she discovers that she hasn't put her pocketbook, and Rod sees her being engaged into a car. A half block away, the machine crashes into the sidewalk and she finds Lylah's register, who has been drinking heavily. However, Reggie's identity is not known to him Lylah has some reason which he does not understand, becomes angry at him and after they take Reggie to a doctor, tells him to As the days pass, Rod trains faithfully and sees no one except the other fighters in the gym. He does not try to see Lyla. One afternoon his friend, Martin, takes him to a "tea party" at a young society girl's home. There is much galley at the party, which Rod soon discovers is caused by free drinking of liquor. He meets a seductive looking girl named Zeda, who makes him take a look — the first one in his life. Under the influence of his life, his kisses Zeda in the hallway at the place and looks up to see Lyla entering Zeda laughs triumphantly and, pulling into the room, stains the door. Red goes to Kling's office, where his manager informs him that, in two weeks, he is to fight Mlekey Latro, chief contender for the middleweight championship. They go to the offices of the Arena's manager, where the contract is signed, several newspaper reporters being prevailed. When they leave the space, two of the reporters accompany them. At one of the city's busier workers, a truck carrying a brier on steers, crashes into another machine. One of the animals breaks loose and charges madly across the street. Rod, trained on the range for just such emergency as this, leaps out in front of the beast as hundreds of people watch fascinated horror. Directly back of him is a number of small children, which will be rushed by the management steer unless He stops aside just in time to avoid the skirt steer, then, after the fashion of his kit, he succeeds in "buldogging" the skirt to the ground. At first, its neck so that it falls to the ground. That night he is awakened from sleep by his sister, he sleeps. At first, only half-awake, he dreams it is Lily, but Zeda's voice brings him to the consciousness that she has come to his room. When she wants to "gets" him, Bede a normal youth, Rod writes in to her wiles, and returns her to the room. The room is avoided when Martin, Rod's hawker friend, arrives. Zeda hides in Rod's closet, Martin brings the evening papers to Rod's picture and the story of his girlfriend. Finally he goes, and Zeda emerges from the closet on her hand. Rod statues as she throws "the robe, disclosing her lovely form in sheer silk garments. She holds her arms to her arms, and he walks slowly As Rod advanced toward the girl only the faint sounds of their labored breathing could be heard. Then came a peremptory knock on the door, Rod sprang, back, his eyes blazed earlier as Martin strode gaily into the room without waiting for an invitation. Upon seeing Zeda he halted, but this anazement was patiently feigned. Thus Zeda was patiently I did. Because he was hampered, Jed was about to say something, she her eyes flashing dangerously, cried out, "I know very well I was there. That's why you came back, you rotten sneak! You think you have to protect your little friend, eh? Well, if anyone asks me, I tell you she is a hell of a guardian!" ZEDA PULLS A MEAN ONE Unabashed by his presence she moved the motion, slipped it over her head. Daring into the clothes closet she emerged with her small slippers in her hands. Her fury made her tremble, her voice flowed on like molten lava. Her a man I'd knock your grimming face off!" "I'll ce," Martin began. "No, ILL go!" she cried furiously, "go while you tell your friend what am I to little Sunny School boss!" By now she was fully dressed, and When Food Sours Sweeten the stomach—instantly About two hours after eating many people suffer from sour stomachs. They call it indigestion. It means that the stomach nerves have been over-stimulated. There is excess acid. The way to correct is to with an alkali, which neutralizes many times its volume in acid. The right way is Phillip's Milk of Magnesia—just a tasteless dose in water. It is pleasant, efficient and harmless. It has remained the standard with physicians in the 50 years since its invention.

"The trouble with you, big boy, is that you have to wear a coat for your boy friend instead of you, you poor fish. Bah!" With uncontrolled fury, the girl hand flashed from her side, landing on Martin's face in a blow without moving. "I'm sorry, Zeda." he said quietly. "Really I am." "Sorry, hell!" Without a further glance at either of them, the girl rushed out of the room. Rod glanced wordlessly at his friend, wading him with evident apprehension. "Now don't be sore, Rod." Martin begged. "I had to do it. If you let me explain— To kill you, give relief. Rod grinned. "Did you know you she was here?" he asked curiously. "DETECTIVE" MARTIN "Well, the first thing that told me that something was wrong were those rouge marks all over your face. They're still there, if you will go and look at the mirror," Martin explained. Rod grinned ruefully, then went to his mirror. "That girl must use a lot of paint," he commented, as he picked up a towel. "And then seeing the rouge I noticed the corner of her pocket-book sticking out from under your covers," Martin went on. "Then I figured it was Zeda, because I could smell it. The only one in her set who can afford that brand, and she always takes care to let everyone know that it is her exclusive perfume." "Well, even so." Rod said, as he regarded him and mended what he did back? He not a child, you know, after all." "I know, Kid," Martin sighed, "but I'm your friend." "Yeah, I know that." That's why I didn't know when you came back just now." Rod grinned. "I figured you must have had a darned good reason." "I was afraid I would get socked," Martin admitted me. "I still don't stu'd around and let Zeda get her claws in you. Although she is what is called a society girl, there are more scandals about her than any other girl in town, and I happen to know who are. And that is worse. I happen to know that she runs around with Wolf! "Great Scott," Rod exclaimed in amazement. "Why I didn't think my girl would be caught at a dawn fight, with that guy!" "Which proves that you don't know your Chicago!" Martin said grimly. "Why, there have been any number of scandals about society girls running after men of the sporting world I don't know why they do it, unless they're after a thrill. And besides Kid," his voice became gentle. "you're crazy about Lyla, and she's crazy about you. She's a decent girl, and I think you owe it to her to keep clean of such broads as Zeda." MARTIN'S "BLUNDER" INVOKED 'Aw, she's not crazy about me,' Rod demurred. "Don't kid yourself. You can't blame her for not throwing herself at your head. can you?

"I call her right now." He's a little too late to make to respect a call now. Rod objected driily. "Wat until tomorrow." He sighed deeply. "I'm glad that my blundering efforts to keep you straight didn't cause you to fall out with me, he said, as he started out of the room. "It's OK," Marty. "Rod smiled at him. I am glad you did it. I'm nobody's good-doe boy, but I have thought I was decent." "That the stuff!" Martin called back as he started down the steps. II The next morning Kling came to Rod's house in his car. "Cmon boy," he greeted, "we got to go out." He slapped Rod heartily on the back. I suppose you read the papers about how you saved all those kids' lives, didn't you? "Yeah. Last night." Rod confirm- "How does it feel to be a hero alive?" Rod's (teeth flushed whitely as he laughed. "Great!" he confessed, "on-come, see where I am so much of a hero." They were in King's car headed downtown to the gymnasium. King punched Rod Slyd in the rips. Cowboy. And if you think that publicity is going to hurt you, you're all wet. Why, man, they'll be packed in the Arena like sardines the night you run up pretty high, too." 35000 SNACKERS "About how much will I get," Rod inquired, thinking of Martin's question of the night before. "I'll tell you," Kling explained, "the night is lightning is fighting a chameleon and the public knows it. That's the sad part about boxing—the big fellows make a match they know is one-sided and then expect people to like it good. It is like Mickey Good for popular. And now with this break, you you're getting in the newspapers, you and Mickey will be the most important. I'm going to be a better cut on the money. If my plans work out our share may be about thirty or thirty-five thousand dollars. That wouldn't be so bad eh?". He whisked in amazement. "Gee whiz, Mr. King, that a bunch of money!" "Sure, but nothing like what we will make if you lick this boy, Lazzo. I will do my best," Rod assured him. At the gymnasium Kling's manner became mysterious. He led Rod cautiously into the place by a year entrance into the gymnasium, safely in his dressing room. Kelly created Rod with his twisted smile. "Kid that was a swell thing you did yesterday," he said, throwing his arm about. Rod's shoulder didn't touch him, but you knocking out, now that I know you throw steers around like that! "Don't kid me, Kelly." Rod grinned, pleased at his comrade's praise. "Right, boys." Kling broke in briskly, "let's get to work. Rod, you get out of your clothes." He hurried to the door which led into the gymnasium. "Mike! Come here and give the Cowboy a rub. will you?" ROD'S FIGHTING INSIGNIA Back at Rod's head he began unfolding a package. Rod watched him curiously, but he didn't notice the wavetim to the rubble table before he could see what his manager was unwrapping. After the powerful kneding of his muscles by Mike, Rod felt his blood through his body. The latter had finished. he bounded off the male shooting swift blows at the air. "Golly, but I feel great," he cried, as he danced around the room. Kling called him. "Lookee!" he commanded, holding up before Rod's gaze a brilliant crimson gown upon whose back the black furre of his coat in full charge, what you're going to make your initial appearance before the public in. And that ain't all. Just wait." From the opened package brought out, a pair of black silk boxing tights on an upper garment of the same material. "Boy you won't look swell on that body of yours."

When he got home, he put them on again, regrettfully, "Get I wish I had some new shoes to go with this outfit. I'll get a pair today." "Oh no, you won't, Kling said with a smile. 'I already have got you a pair. Here they are." "They are glazed, thin-soled black box shoes. Rod put them on with the eagerness of a child. Then he stood up." "Now I wish the night of the fight was here. so I could show off my shoes. But he cried, making a mass at Kelly. POSING FOR FANS "You can show 'em off in about two minutes. Kling told him, with a smile which showed that he was outside in the gym right now there is a man from every newspaper in town and about seven hundred fight fans. And they are all up here because they were with him when they didn't get a watch when the newspaper guys take flashlight pictures." "Oh, Lord! Rod groaned in dismay. 'I'm scared—" "You won't be." Kling assured him, punching the bag and then work a tawdry rounds with Kelly. We got to make the fans like it, and keep the newspapers pluggin' for you. "You like it, Cowboy." Kelly assured him, on the back. Rod hit at him playfully. "OK," he announced with a deep breath. "I'm ready then." Kling opened the door and stood close to the camera, in the place, stopped watching everything else at the prospect of seeing the Cowboy fighter. Kling grinned expansively and beckoned to Rod. When the latter made his appearance, and many loud cries. "Don't pay 'em no mind," Kling whispered, with his arm proudly around Rod's shoulders. "Now, hustle out there to the ring and do your stuff!" III Rod left the giants' gun short after noon his face still rinsing with the unstinted applause the patrons of the place had given him as he went through his paces. The taste of public apprehension which he had countered was to him, but it increase his opinion of himself in the least. Always levelheaded, he liked to know that people thought well of him, but he did not let himself believe all that was being told. The determination to win in his ensuing fight had grown into a fierce resolve. Kling had filled his ears with talk of wealth, of fame, of being the champion of the world. Though he were walking on the clouds. ROD SPEAKS TO LYLA As he passed a drug store, he halted. Why not call Lyla and see if she would allow him to take a chance on her saying "yes". He shrugged his side shoulders and entered the place with elastic tread. When he had gotten the number, a strange voice answered, "I'd like to speak to Miss Durant," he said. There was a wait of almost two minutes, which seemed like two hours to the impatient youth. As he came Lyla's well remembered face. "Hello." "Lyla! This is—" "I know who it is. Why haven't you called me up before now. Rod?" "I—well—er—I thought you were angry with me." "I'm not angry. When are you coming to see me?" "Gee whiz. Lyla! That's great. I'm on my way now, if it's all right..." "Sure it is. I want to see you badly, too. Hurry, will you—dear?" In the little phone booth Rod tried to dance a jig his happiness was so great. Finding that impossible, he bounded out of the place and across the floor, capering like a small boy. The attendants in the store gasped in amazement as he plunged out of the door. A passing taxi halted abruptly in answer to his loud hail. He scurried into it, and gave the Durant address. As the machine made its way slowly through the heavy traffic. Rod squirmed around on the seat in an agony of impatience. So Lyla wasn't angry at him after all. He couldn't figure it out, and did not try. The knowledge that he was to see her again, made everything else seem of infinite unimportance. By WILLIAM T. SMITH **LYLA WORRIED** When at length the car reached her house he pulled the driver and dashed precipitately up the steps. In answer to his ring, the maid opened the door and let him into the same room on in his first visit to the house. Lyla was not in sight. Restlessly he paced up and down the floor like a caged animal. Lyla's voice made him wheel toward her as she entered the room. "Hello, Rod." she said simply. "My dear!" Rod cried, springing to her side. "I'm so glad to see you." The girl smiled dimly. He noticed that there were dark circles under her eyes, and that her appearance was disgusting. "What's the matter, Lyla?" he asked anxiously. "Have you been ill?" "Not ill, but worried," she told him as she led him to the lounge. "Won't you?" Rod wanted to blurt out his repentance for whatever he had done, and beg her forgiveness, but some reason she was no longer the sprightly, laughing girl he had known such a short time ago, but she seemed older, moreious, and infinitely more attractive. "I read about you in all the papers last night and this morning," she told him gravely, "in glad that you were going to learn to grudgid to learn that you are going to turn your fine strength to professional fighting." "But you can make more money did you learn in any other way I know of," Rod protested eagerly. "Why, my manager says that our share of my first engagement may print us thirty-five thousand dol- LYLA KNOWS ALL Lyla seemed unimpressed. "Yes, but even that much money can't make up for the thought of your deliberately capitalizing your ability to manipulate" she said with a little shudder. "After you turned me down so cold the night I—I had the trouble with Reggie. I thought I might as well go on and do anything. I didn't much care after that." Rod explained more seriously. "I judged as much from what I saw yesterday afternoon." Lyla told him with unconcealed anger. "How could you have kissed that awful girl!" Did I know. "Rod confessed contrarily. "I had taken a drink—" "Because she begged you to." Lyla put in. "Why—how did you know?" he asked in amazement. "I know about everything she wanted to get someone she wanted." Lyla returned. "Well, why did you turn against me so suddenly that night when I beat Begge up?" Rod asked. "I don't know it." I really I wanted to thinkinking only of you." "Yes, yes. I know." Llya cried in a choked voice. "I realized after we had been on the beach that night, that I was growing to care too much for you." "Llya!" the youth cried gladly. "do you really mean that?" "Wait, and I'll explain," the girl evaded. "I told you when we first met that I was engaged to Reggie. I thought that I could get one of some way after that." her voice absolute. "—after I fell one, with you—" BOE LEARNS THE TRUTH tectingly. She sighed deeply and took up the thread of her recital. "But I found that I could not. I intended to tell you while we were on the beach, and then each other any more—that" her voice grew low, and big tears stole out of her eyes and rolled slowly down her golden cheeks. "I was going to marry Reggie. I was going to marry the shoulders. He burned her so that she faced him. His dark eyes burned into hers. "You are not going to marry that guy!" he stated grimly. "Because in the first place, you don't love him, and in the second place I not go to let 'em. Lyla shook her head sadly. "I know how you feel, dear, but when I explain you'll understand his situation. He father has kind of a hold on my daddy, I don't know what it is. but I know that he has. It worries daddy terribly. He has to keep Reggie's father's good will. "After I told you I told daddy that I wanted to break my engagement to Reggie. He didn't say much for a while, then he sighed and told me The Thirteen Most Interesting Negroes in the United States By EUGENE GORDON Well-Known Essayist (Continued from last week) There is in Chicago a Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church who is, at the same time, one of that city's swelt and finished politicians. He is a pastor, and it is what interests not only me, but thousands of others who have observed the Chicago political machine. Bishop Archibald James Carey, A.D. D. J. of Chicago, per of the Illinois Constitutional Convention, a trustee of Wilberforce University, a member of the Civil Service, Commission of Chicago, a A.M.E. Church, chairman of the General Conference Commission of 1928; he is a Mason, a Knight of Pythias, an Odd Fellow, a Forester, a Republiqued, and of course, a bishop. The salary of a bishop is $3500 a year and he is elected for life. Conferences are held annually and each bishop is paid $100 in fees for each conference. The bishop pays the premises pays him from $25 to $100 for a sermon. Thus, a voluble bishop may sometimes make as much as $300 a Sunday. His earnestness and approach, approximate $1,000 a year. With the intensive political training before he is elected bishop, it is not at all amazing that years later he sometimes becomes a power in politics and becomes a force for inclusion, that Bishop Carey presides over a district embracing Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Iowa, and that this district has a church population of many thousands who accept this saintly man's power as his power he may be comprehended. Bishop Carey's job as Civil Service Commissioner was threatened some time ago by A.M.E. legislation, but when the conference met, what did he do in the act, it lay on its back and famed its stubby tail, while the massive man of God from Chicago smiled tolerantly upon it. In brief, the conference, instead of calling him president, of the bishopric or of out politics, handed him the most important episcopal district of the A.M.E. Church. It did precisely as he and Mayor Thompson desired it to do: it retained him in Chicago where his benign influence was the stench of puritic politics. If there is a more interesting personality in Aframerica, than this Divinitatis Doctor of His Name, wish to have him as his muse. With his large earnings as a bishop and his salary of $7,500 as civil service commissioner, the good man does not have to worry about a scarcity of jobs. He is able to contribute to his support, either. I feel sure; for so exalted a churchman, although he may not obey his master's injunction to render to Caesar the things that he has done, he lives, dispense among the poor of Chicago all the money in excess of what he and his family, as good Christians, need. If he does, he is more interesting than he may be interesting still. Chicago offers another interesting man, in Oscar De Priest. Thus far, he bears no string of honorary degrees after his death. He long next. The reason he has so far escaped is that the institutions which seek prestige by presenting degrees to personages have not yet had time to decide whether the Congressman should help them. They will have to watch his behavior a little longer before deciding definitely what to do. For De Priest has drawn more censure than praise since he has been in office. Especially do the colored folks of the South tremble every time the blustery Mid-Westerner opens his to go ahead. He didn't want to intertwine with my happiness, but if I didn't marry Reggie it would not hurt him, which would perhaps disgrieve him. Lyla's eyes held a far away look. She sat upright, her small hands tearing nervously at her tiny handkerchief. Rod tightened his arm about her, but she did not seem to "I didn't ask him what it was, but he told me a little about it. It will surprise you, too. It seems that Riegger's father grew up with my father, and fought that night, even in some kind of partnership, and they have a hold on my fathr. I think that Wolf is holding some kind of a whip over Riegger's father, and he is trying to make my dad do something. Politics! Ugh! I hate the word!" Sobs choked her, and she buried her race on Rod's shoulder. her small figure racked by the force of her emotion. "Anything be done about it?" Rod asked. She shook her head hopelessly. "Nothing, guess. If only that Wolf wasn't concern in it! Whatever, is he the ring lense? If something be forced to him!" she continued with tearful fierceness. A "SERIOUS ACCIDENT" "Wouldn't happen to him, honey!" Rod promised, his young jaw rockel. "Something pretty serious!" "On no. Rod! You mustn't get in trouble! Iva begged." "Do you think I'm going to let you marry Reggie it I can do anything to stop it? I can't, don't you see that if you stop me from marrying Reggie it will disgrace my mother?" the girl implored. "She was silent for a long while, his eyes narrowed to dangerous slits, and an expression which boded ill for somebody on his face. Finally he pulled the girl to him and kissed her." "Don't you worry, little Lyla. I'm going to get this thing cleared up somehow. Just try to believe that everything will come out all right." Lyla smiled. "I do appreciate your willingness to help. Rod, she whispered, 'But I'm afraid there's nothing you can do. I wanted you to come over so I could explain all these things you you, and to make you see I'll just have it go through with.' "With what?" Rod demanded quickly. "With murrying Reggie." "When are you supposed to marry him?" In two weeks. "In two weeks." Rod leaped to his feet. "Somebody in this man's town is going to have a 'serious accident'—he announced grimly. 'and I think I know who it is!'

Wring a pad of cloth out of a basin of very hot water and apply to the shoulder covering the wet towel. Wipe the shoulder with a towel or a blanket of some kind. Change the pad frequently and keep the painful surface as much covered as possible. You should be bed during the times when you are suffering the most pain, but if this is not possible, I advise you to visit some local doctor for examination. The hook is the best thing that I can advise from here. Dear Miss Fox: Will you tell me something about whether an operation fo. adenoids is years old, has them and the doctors say that the only thing to do is to have an operation. It is dangerous and what is your advice? (MRS.) AGE Z. An operation for adenoids is the only way to remedy the condition. It is not a dangerous operation if you go to a good doctor, and it is not a bad one if your boy being a slow thinker--dull and indifferent--all the rest of his life and Onorio Ruolele prefer him to any other model. Mr. Hunter impressed me, when I saw him a year ago, as being so deep in conversation, talking about it all the time and to whoever ould listen. And when he talks about the strange characters he has created he unconscious acts, a most fascinating person to watch. Most of the pictures and sculpture for which he has posed represent African art, he has been after all, that the artists wanted. In feature and face he is as typically African as any. Negro can possibly James W. Johnson My interest in James Weldon: Johnson was first aroused through my reading of the Autobiography "The Autobiography of Johnson." It was published in 1912. Interest was heightened through reading his editorials in the New York Age. I cannot remember any one of them, but the phrase that seemed to glare red-eyed at me from the austere and dignified page, and I have since wondered what could have caused Mr. Johnson's death. I frequently used by the Southern Negro preacher: "washed him up," for worshipped. No matter what of Johnson's I have read since, I have remembered it. It haunts me whenever I see his name. I did not see him in person until some years later, when he addressed the Ford Hall Forum, his subject being The Negro in Literature: "A Negro's Life" and black cord that festooned from dots eyeglasses; the pearl gray spats; the aloof and bored manner in which he mounted the platform, his stick held daintily along the gray-striped leg of his trousers; and his frequent—very frequent—reference to his own incompatible accomplishments. The next time I saw him he was visiting the Opportunity dinner in the Fifth Avenue restaurant. New York's stick dangled at just as dainty an angle as it had done on the previous occasion; his spats were just as pearly gra: the broad, black cord on his eyeglasses festooned just as sweepingly; and he was just as humdid in conversation with those around him. You see, those things which interested me in him were purely supernatural, and I was in deepest mind in my consciousness that I could not see the man's contributions to American culture. Later that evening I was somehow included among the students of Johnson apartment at 138th Street and Seventh Avenue. Before the evening was over, I had come to see the recently published book of Negro sermons, responding to the flattering encomiums of Miss Brenda Moryck and other feminine washers, which would likely respond to the gentle scratching of his back He interested me then; he interests me now. He has created in himself almost a universal interest for the past year, and would like to testing. I believe, if he no were not the excellent writer that he certainly is. He would be interesting even in his native town of Jacksonville, Florida, taunton county of Fifth Avenue, in a morning coat, gray striped trousers, black ribbon as broad as a tape measure festooning from his eyeglasses, nearly gray space and language, and a decade or a decade of the exile among glass-teepers whose hobby is listening to Mr. Johnson's heart-breaking descriptions of the American Negro's shabby lot in a cruel land.

At this time, celebrities from every division of sports are invited, bringing to the radio listeners, a closer contact with the headliners in athletic activities. On last Saturday, Mr. Husing introduced Edward Zeltner, noted writer on a local daily; George Godfrey, leading colored challenger of the heavyweight title; the absence of the Pennsylvania State Boxing Commission, Mr. Husing read an address prepared by that gentleman. The whole program was one of the boldest, most courageous things attempted, for it no one of the speakers declared most emphatically that Godfrey was being discriminated against, that he man when boxing a white fighter, but received instead to do his stuff under wraps at all times; that the championship battle between Sharkey and Schmellling lacked the ring of a true championship battle with Godfrey left on. The message from the chairman of the Pennsylvania Athletic Commission was even more outspoken. In it the speaker declared that his audience had been championship heavyweight fight, unless George Godfrey had been permitted to participate in the elimination Godfrey himself spoke briefly over leadership, leading up to the WABC which conducts the hour and stated that he felt he had not been treated fairly. One of the highlights in Mr. Zelkner's resume of Godfrey's career was the fact that he was the member of the U.S. Army during the World War. He never sought to cash in on that fact. Godfrey was a member of the 131st Infantry, though he service classes. Godfrey rendered valuable service to his regiment by serving as physical instructor, having been detailed to this service by the camp commandant. Never before in the history of the ring, has such a tribute been paid a fighter, discriminated against, be he white or black. That Godfrey has served as a fighter did evidence that Godfrey's performances in the ring have been noticed by those in power. In his palmy days of chasing Dempsey, Harry Wills never received such recognition as having as Godfrey in this instance.

Brown entered the ring under a great strain as his mother had just died. The first two rounds of this bout were even, but in the third, Falco cut loose and from then on Brown never had a chance. In the semi-winning, Eddie Dempsey lost to Tony Tedesco, Lew Dewey put too much for Jimmy Reilly in the sixth-round go, and Silent Thomas encountered little trouble in beating Ed Freely in a bout that looked more like a comic moving picture than a prize fight.

CARPENTER WEST POINT, N.Y.—The Cavalry athletes started elimination week preparatory for the annual track and field meet to be held Sunday, May 11, The Cavalry held the championship four years, outpointing their nearest competitor by wide margins. Burum E. Walker, former Eastern United States sectional champion, won the 100-yard dash last year and is getting in action for the coming month. Elmer Morris, who won the 440 is not expected here this season but will be replaced by Alconley Fenter, the all-round athlete and captain of the 1930-31 basketball team. Benefield and lefty Lynch will hold their own in the high jumps as they did last year. "Broadway" Ransom says it won't be necessary to measure the distance for the shot-put this year, as it will probably fall in the Hudson. Harold Stewart, pole vaulter, was injured last year and is still in the hospital. Leon Ellis, post champion long distance runner, is expected to enter the 880-yard run. "Baby doll" Brown will enter also. The following detachments will participate in the coming event: U.S.M.A. Field Artillery, U.S.M.A. Mines Service Detachment, Service Detachment, Quartermaster, and Ordnance.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, April 26, 1930 HearMeTalkin'toYa WHEN war shells ceased bursting on the Philadelphia baseball battlefront the flag of the Bolden group and that the Thompson faction were both run up to their respective masts, in token of victory in the hostilities that cut in twain the venerable old Koehle of Hildale. Both sides are claiming victory, but the battle just ended, to gain control of the old Hildale club, is just the beginning of a warfare that is going to use a plenty of ammunition before the summer cam- painting is over. While Philadelphia club will have a Philadelphia park for its home ground, and Thompson's outfield will play at the old field in Darby, this believes that for a while, at least, attendance at both parks is going to suffer. There are enough Philadelphia fans, however, to fairly support two clubs, but not enough for either of them to sell away a sackful of money. to saint away a saint away. Where the rub will come in, is in the matter of booking games. From where this honeymoon has parked, it appears that because clubs from Philadelphia, such as the Lincoln Giants, Black Sox, Homestead Grays, know that their services are in demand both clubs, they can almost time the time and figure in signing. They will, it seems, hold the whip hand, since the appearance of out-of-town clubs will determine the size of the crowds. While there has been internal dissension in the original Hilldale organization for some time, few people expected the disruption at this time. There was more indication of it last year, then was this year. But as the rumbling grew louder the fortnights ago, those in close touch with both factions knew that the worst was not far off. Most baseball fans will regret the split, and all will anxiously the developments in the Pennsylvania bailyards. On paper, Bolden — who will merely inserted an "s" and named his club, "Hilldale," which many fans have called it) — seems to have the better of the argument. Mackey, Dallard, White and Cannan are more than names, and with Ott Brits leading, and such names as Porter Charleson, Gilles, Dalle Cooper and Lackey, it does seem that Uncle Ed will be able to fashion a shirt that will be welcome in more than one bailyard. team that will win. In thearroll, it is reported, is to lead the Thompson men into battle, but to the as personnel of this group. I have not written, be informed, but Lloyd told me a for that that he would have some real players in uniform before May 3, when the club officially prizes off the league. An interesting angle to the present situation, a little bit of irony, if you please, is that Nat Strong, who during old league days was at swords' points with Monsieur Bolden, is to book games for the new Bolden club. Nat WILL get his cut. TLLL speaking of baseball, and rambling hither and yon, for no particular reason whatever, the conductor of this colum stumbles through the following stuff, gathered while tramping through the woods and glens of the world of sports. You may believe them or not. They tell the story of Bell, outfielder of the St. Louis Stars, who is not noted for his unusual speed. It is understood that one year when Fats Jenius was in the West, the two had a race, with Belt beating him in little baseball-basketball star. the chinky in the back of the jacket, a former teammate of Bell, but now playing with the Baltimore Black Sox, to tell this story. Bell's speed. "One day," Suttles is reported as yawning. "Bell bunted an easy one, the ball rallied half-way between home plate and the pitcher's box. "And he beat it out, I suppose," someone cautiously rejoined. "Naw," said Suttles, taking another hitch in his belt, "they threw him out at second." Now that Jake Stevens, the former Hildale shortstop, is back with the Homestead Grays, it can be told. Jake sees the story goes, left the Grays last year, not because the salary differences, but because the big Bucks in the Grays traveled rolled to too great a speed for him to run out on the open road. Jake likes speed out on the diamond, but when it comes to driving an automobile he prefers that you take it slow and easy. And did anyone ever tell you that the reason a certain hall club always left town immediately after the game was because it would save buying a meal for fifteen men? Since a number of the fans are wondering why Olive Marcelie is not at the hot corner of Joe Black Sox this season, and probably blame it upon the altercation between Marcelie and Warfield in Cuba, last winner, it might be in order to say that the matter never occurred. Marcelie would have been given the air just the same. Marcelle's legs have gone back considerably in the past two seasons at the combination of Sutties at first and Wilson back at third, both men good fielders and hard hitters in addition, was felt to be stronger than a Marcelle-Wilson combination, with Babe on first. That's the real reason. Marcelle, and Bob McClure, by the way, are reported as having signed to play under Nat Strong's banner with the Brooklyn Giants this season. Over at School 112, where George B. Murphy is principal and Mack Payne has charge of athletics, there is a spirit of good sport and love of the game that exists at few other schools. To an extent this is true at the Dumbar Junior High School and at the Washing- ington and Gouin Normal Schools — all in this city. ton Junior High. But at 11:30 there is a sort of contagion, once the spirit gets you that will not let you go. Much of this is due to a co-operative spirit of the principal, who himself, believes in athletics. Getting youngsters before they go to the junior or senior high schools, and engendering a spirit of good sportsmanship and fair play is important, for these youngsters will carry over into the high school and after life, the impressions made by those in charge of them while they are the elementary grades. in the elementary grades. Again this colum salutes the School 112 principal and coach.

But when you forget to take the dive things begin to happen as the aftermath of the Carrera to the Pacific Coast the other day, the stance is stiffing the nos- Dutch kingdom. trils of inhabitants of that city. Cowboy Bill Owens, a bounty or so ago, told the story of having guns and blackjackers he on when he himed the Italian Behemoth in the Bastion and Ace Clark almost forgot his cue in Philadelphia and his the Ambling Ampel of a technical kayo, before he remembered his lines and slowed up so that Carrera could see the count. grop But Bombo Chevalier, the smell of blood in his nostrils, completely forgot the 'Handie' and lied to him, and lilt into him in the manner of one of the old time fighters. The fans weren't blind and neither were the judges, for all could see that Chevalier was piling up on points. the Apulei to bring an end to the bombardment, Bob Perry, one of Chevalier's seconds, tossed the towel into the ring as a signal that Chevalier was through. Prior to that, Chevalier alleges that Perry, who had warned him not to really fight hard, rubbed salve, to which vitriol had been added, on an abrasion over one of Chevalier's eyes. Chevalier was almost blinded and was suffering great pain as he entered the ring in the sixth, but despite this, was outgathering Carrera, when Perry, only a third assistant second, came. As a result of his action, Perry was severely beaten by fans, a large number of them being Carrera's countrymen who booed and booed While it has been recommended that Carrera's license in California be revoked, and while Perry and the other two seconds, Tim McGrath, Chevallier's manager, and Frank Churchill, Carrera's California representative, have been ordered suspended indefinitely, the damn it. Chevalier, however, has made himself a martyr to the cause of laying bare the sham and fraud which have been hinted at all of the Man Mountain's fights, since he set his number two twelve on American shores. There is no doubt that the "framing" of the big sellout is. It is the chickens, however, and not "Carrion" the big should be kicked out. For if they let him alone only one real fight would be necessary to convince him that it was time for him to hasten to sunny Italy. And, so you won't forget it, this pillar reminds you that the sixth week Week Rescue will be run through the city streets, Saturday. Be on hand to cheer your favorite runner.

The former champion lamented that the graveyards are being combed to resurrect the dead trying to find a suitable opponent for Prima_Carrera and they pass him up. When he is pushed of bones into the ring with Carrera, I thought the call would come to me. I've been waiting and waiting, but it hasn't come. I can't understand.

By BILL GIBSON (AFRO Sports Editor) WEARN FIELD, CHARLOTTE, N.C. —The Smith University Bulls made a sacrifice of the Livingstone College Bears on the altar of King Baseball, here Easter Monday, taking the annual holiday classic by the score of 2 to 2. The skies, which had threatened since early morning released a few rain drops before game time, but when the game was called the skies were blue and clear. A crowd of 4,000 witnessed the stuggle. Because of the opening the white Sally baseline league in the afternoon, the classic hat to be showed up to a four-hour Base Running Good Timely hitting and heady base running by the Bulls, coupled with three corners by the Salisbury tossers, nished the margin of the ELLs and ELLs and pitcher pitchers, yielding the cockered hits each. Ellis, however, fanned 12 batsmen to four for Tucker, and in the pinches possessed a steadiness on a tie score. The pitcher walked only one man, and in the eight inning, with the bases loaded, and none out, fanned McCormick. Livingstone suggested that only one run to come before the side was retired. Smith Scores Early Smith scored early, counting two binges and smart base running. Another run was scored in the third, and one each in the sixth and eighth frames. It was not much that, with the ability to shove on the pan, the run coming when McCormick, hard hitting Livingstone first base sacker, kissed one of Ellis's easy shoots on the ball and sent it riding over the left field Massey Hits Homer Massey, Smith catcher, and second man in the Bulls' half of the sixth, slammed one of Tucker's offerings over the fence in almost the only cal spot where he played circuit ball, Walker had lifted a high fly ball to center field, but Butler, coming in fast, made a shoe string catch of the ball in the first round. Ellis Saves Day Ellis, who exercised remarkable control throughout the contest, had only one bad inning, the eighth. McDen opened the third ball, McDen closed the fence, and Gibson rapped out a timely single, sending McFadden scurrying to third. Tucker drew a walk, and the bases were drunk. The Lions' team, the tightly bingle as McGormick, their heavy artilleryman, came up to bat with none out. After fouling three pitched balls and one big ball, the巨人 took a healthy cut at one of Ellis's steamers, but was too late, the ball finding a resting place in catcher Massey's moused hand. Butler then sacrificed McFadden home, but Buford was an easy out, Ellis to **Bears Make Jeopardy** beaten by one double play, that coming in the fifth frame when Lindsay, with McDonald on first as the result, struck the ball. He caught the ball on the end of his bat, however, on the ball making an easy pop for Tucker, who relayed the ball to first and caught McDonald off the bags. Livingstone donated a run to the Smithmen in the third when McDonald we'd to first on Holland's bad throw to McCormick. He was sacrificed to second by Lindsey and second by the McCormick fly, come scampering home. Livingstone Hope Fades The last hope that Livingstone entertained for scoring went glimmering in the ninth minute of the Holland fanned in a row. Smith played errors ball, and only one out, was made by a Smith outfielder, that one coming in the sixth when Gibson popped out to Walker. Biggs and Horne, who did not have an opportunity to make an out, the 28 other put-outs being confined to the infield.

Kegean, the well-known writer, is responsible for the following: This was during the days when Mr. James J. Jeffries still was heavy weight champion, with apparent nobility in sight. He was taking his case in Harry Corbett's saloon in San Francisco when a long, lanky came into play. The Negro was for Johnson, who subsequently beaten the 'Black Menace' who beat Jebra Reno in one of the battles of the century promoted by Mr. Corbett. "At the time Mr. Jeffries did take the Johnson challenge seriously it merely annoyed him. So he made the suggestion to Johnson: "He go into the cellar and the one who came out alive will be the winner." which the legend says Johnson is filled, "I am no cellar fighter."

J.-Captain Otto Briggs led the Hildale Club to a thrilling 6 to 4 victory over the strong Trenton A. C. here before 4,000 fans, Sunday. The Mayor of Trenton raised the flag and also threw out the first ball. Weston who started on the mound for 10 points, led the third due to his wildness, and it was through the great relief pitching of Webster McDonald and Ping Gardner that Trenton was only able to score one run. Even with the third and no outs, McDonald pitched himself out of the hole by striking out the side.

Almost immediate by awards Phi Beta Sigma had a foul by Omega. Syphax then settled down to overcoming this lead. The half found the score tied, 9-9.

Athletes May Develop Bad or Good Traits. BY EDWIN B. HENDERSON (Head of Physical Education Dept. of Washington High Schools.) The question of unemployment looms large in civilized countries. It will be solved by further shortening labor hours and increasing the number of workers. There is no other reasonable way. This process will in turn make for more leisure time. How will this leisure be used? The big political states in the world are furnishing more facilities and incentives for recreation. Schools are extending instruction in physical education activities. CARNERA FAKES FIGHT ON PACIFIC COAST California Suspends Manager, but Lets Big Fighter Go after Investigation CHEVALIER COMPLAINS Says Whites Threatened Him with Death Every sort of pleasurable form of play from pitching horseshoes to football, lacrosse, push ball, tennis and golf is being taught, so that out of all the individuals will select for participation the games they desire and will have developed an appreciative knowledge of many more games than they play them, spend time in listening to accounts, seeing them from stands, through movies, or by television. Athletics no Panacea In schools, through playing games, pupils learn how to get along with each other in moments of complex and emotion-stirring activity. With the right kind of physical director, character traits suitable in an approved social order will be caught. It is a mistake to believe that good character just requires playing games. The way athletes and players are played in some places just as often strengthens bad traits.

Chevalier was giving Carrera plenty of excitement when Eob Perry, white, Chevalier's second bout in the town of Oakland, charged that Perry threatened him with death unless he took a kayo punch. Following a two-day investigation, the California athletic commission took action to suspend Frank Churchier, who is Italian contender for the heavyweight championship. A similar penalty was inflicted upon three white men who were in the corner of Chevalier, when the latter met Carrera. The Negro boxer's parents, who reside in Scott, Lafayette Parish, Louisiana, are more interested than anyone else over the final outcome of the California bout, for their son has promised to fight against the fight were expected to help substantially in providing the gift.

It was Armstrong's fourth experience in a swimming meet. The clean-cut victory of forty points over against twenty points for Dunbar and three points for Douglass gives some idea of the complete job by Tech's representatives. From a local point of view, the success of the Armstrong team becomes especially noteworthy because the Armstrong building has no swimming-pool. Swimming, not therefore, a sport at the course of study in physical education at Armstrong. Used Dunbar Pool Due, however, to the courtesy of Principal Smith of the Dunbar High School, the Armstrong team enjoys the privilege of the Dunbar pool on Saturday and Sunday during the training season. Between the two schools, which are just across the street from each other, there is such a close bond of genuine fellowship, in spite of their keen rivalry, that whatever the other is certain to supply, if it can furnish the need. Of the seven events scheduled, Armstrong won six first places, and Dunbar the other coveted first place. The forty-two-dash was captured in the final game. Bruce of Armstrong, second; Howard of Dunbar, third. Dunbar turned the tables in the next event, the egg plunge. First place went to Howard of Dunbar; second place to Franklin of Dunbar; third place to Washington of Armstrong. Paris Lad Takes Dive The next event, the plunge, brought the surprise of the afternoon. Jack Mitchell, who recently entered Armstrong, who recently intermixed in swimming, knew nothing of diving until Coach Haynies took him in hand. With but few lessons in diving, Mitchell was sent into the plunge event to represent Armstrong. He led the entire field, even though he was not a Brooks, who took second place. Caldwell of Dunbar finished third. The hundred-yard dash was a repetition of the earlier dash of a shorter distance. Wallace of Armstrong showed the way. Bruce of Armstrong, with Howard of Dunbar pulling in third. Medley Race The medley race, the next event, was won by Armstrong; second, Dunbar; third, Douglas. The winning race was won by Armstrong of Bracey, mining the back stroke; Wallace, the breast stroke, and Miller, the crawl stroke. Another surprise came when Bruce of Armstrong nosed out in the star stage, and Miller, the male Male, of Douglas finished third. The relay race, completing the contest, was won by Armstrong; Dunbar second, and Douglas third Wormley, Miller, Bruce, and Wormley, nosed the winning Armstrong team. Haynes Coached Winners Unstinted praise for the development of the Armstrong team goes to Mr. Harold A. Haynes, teacher of applied electricity, who initially swam at Armstrong as part of the character-building program. This year, he built his team around the versatile and powerful "Windy" Wallace, considered locally the best all-around athlete of the country, Bruce, another stellar athlete who has another year at Armstrong. Francis Pool Trained Swimmers In the general superiority of the two Washington teams over the Baltimore contestants may be refuted the high) commitment of the Francis Swimming Pool, under the direction of Dr. Montague Cobb, aided by the Drew brothers, Charlie and Joe, Clarence Pendleton (Penny), and Owen Roberts (Robert). There is no more wholesome influence among the high school boys of Washington than this swimming pool under the administration of Dumur Hirth High School, Amherst College, and Howard Medical School.

The dark-hosed boys were in holiday mood as they hammered the offerings of five pitchers to thrill the crowd that filled the Bugle Field. The crowd was overed over the fence, four of these resulting from vigorous clicks from the big bat of Mule Sutles. Sox first baseman, while the other three were in field. Rap Dixon and Dick Lundy. Hurlers in Form And while the Sox clouters were clubbing the Bugles tussle, their two pitchers, Yokelsy and Big Boy Page, were dusting of paint on the plate, the players shooting and fainting, Whiffy whifling eight in the first contest and Page an equal number in the seven-inning nightcap. While both games were walkaways for the Westporters, they were not without their fielding thrills and data from Wilson, Lundy and Sattles flashed brilliant form in their handling of the apple, made Lawrence and Finnner made some stellar plays for the losers. Umplres Off Umpires Ed Brockman and Murphy seemed to suffer at times from severe attacks of myonia as on other occasions that would have made Jesse James hand in his resignation to the police and siren club. Despite their efforts, the teams went along raptly smoothly, and no rooster left the park feeling that the teams had short-chained him. The Burges were also quick to recognize they gave off their all, and on more than one occasion rallied to give the Black Sox something to think about. Home Runs Shower Yokely had one bad injury, the second, when five runs were scored, but after that he was never in serious danger, though the Bugles tallied a few runs.

Cluttered bodies begin to complain about the surplus food they secure, and spring fever comes along to force the owners to eat less and get back into shape. We need considerable food in cold weather, in order to eat more of the food. With the coming of spring, however, we must cut down a bit—unless we wish another attack of spring fever. Eat heavily of greens and fruits. Double the quantity of orange juice at breakfast time, and see that there are at least two green vegetables on your table for dinner—preferably the green leaf vegetables that may be uncooked—like celery or lettuce, with minerals, salts and vitamins. They tend to make the body more alkaline, and as they do not contain a great many calories, they may be eaten in considerable bulk without overloading the stomach.

Triple Education "We have a triple brand of education in the South: the rich white; private schools; the poor white; pubs; the Negro, the best that he can" "Nileglimacy is more a subject of money than a subject of morals.

William Pickens SAYS ©ANP. I ENVY THOSE CHILDREN By WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press) Santa Barbara, California, has one school plant in which you find the African-American in—the more inclusive sense of the word race: Negro, Caucasian, Mongolian, Indian, and—among all these are Spanish, Mexican, Filipinos, Japanese, Indian, Hindu, or East Indian, and others. And how naturally and peacefully these little ones seem to get on to their classrooms and down the corridors holding hands and swinging along—Indian and Japanese, white and black, black and Chinese, Japanese and black, Mexican and Chinese. On the school grounds they do not gather by "races" or nationalities, but they mix naturally and play together in apparent consciousness of differences. Do they foreshadow the future of civilized man? But children are always so normal. They are the only people who live and lies make us more and more unnatural or abnormal, until by the time we become "grown-ups," we are not humans but nervous monoliths. It's a wonder that the Ku Klux Klan has not issued some uksuses to these little children. I noticed the little girl with a black cross on the ground of one of the vacant hills overlooking the bay of Santa Barbara. I thanked this minute a sort of digest of Klan principles, which they got out for secret propaganda, and which drifted irregularly into my hands in an Arizona town. Today are no less than half a dozen references and proclamations about "white supremacy" and "racial purity," and such other things. The little children of the Lincoln School, in Santa Barbara, are at least a thousand years ahead of the Klan in ideas—although we hope they are ahead of the world of some men in fact. I envy those children. What a pleasant world they would make of it, if they could only get rid of the burrow and the abnormal and ignorant "grown up." Organizer in Jamaica KINGSTON, Jamaica—Otto Huiswoud, an organizer for the American Negro Labor Congress, addressed the entire population of 600 on Green's Island, urging them to organize for self-protection, last week. LOS ANGELES, Cal., (AN P.) — Although she is unmistakably brown in color, many shades darker than Alice, his divorced octoonor wife, Kip Rhinelander became very much interested in Babe Marie Dickerson, a local girl, recently. Marie, who is also fashionably slender is highly accomplished. She is a pianist, both composing and transposing music. She is also an excellent singer and dancer, and monologist, though only nineteen years of age. Recently she went with a vadeville show, headed by the song composer, Johnny Spikes, to Nevada, playing Las Vegas, Eri Reno, and other towns. Kip Rhinelander was there at the time, passing the time away as he awaited his final divorce degree. He attended the show several times, and was so delighted by the moment, that he did his jest to prevaill on her to stay after the rest of the company went back. She did not do so, but returned to Los Angeles, thence to Seattle to work at a Nite Club. There she became an instant hit and is a great favorite with the patrons.

Business and Industry Employment Agents Discuss Domestic Service Relations Both Employer and Employee to Blame for Some Evils, Says Burman Agent. That both the domestic servant and employer could help make life happier for each other, is the opinion of Mrs. M. Brown, of the Burman Employment Agency. "One of the great handicaps of the domestics," says Mrs. Brown, "is their unreliability, especially the younger group. The domestics ranging from 30 years upwards are reliable, but the employers say that they are too old. "The young help are too inconsiderate, they want to take all but give nothing. They fail to realize that the employer has his off days, and generally when the employer may make a slight remark on these days, the young person will 'hop up' and out." ONE KILLED AS GIRL'S RIVALS SHOOT IT OUT Youths Said to Have Carried Guns for Each Other Six Months VICTIM FIRED FIRST Miss Gladys Wilson is Witness of Tragedy "Then, too, sometimes a servant works for a particular person a long time and she comes to think that she can do any way she wishes on the job. I know of one girl who was working with a Jewish family. During the Passover celebration on Sunday, April 13, she was kept rather late that night. The following week she did not go to work at all. "Now, that girl alls as do a great many others, when she has been alone while a while she can walk out when she wants to and find everything just as she left it when she returns. Employers not Faultless "Of course, on the other hand, there are employers who are at fault occasionally in their treatment of their servants. One instance was brought to my attention where a girl was ironing lace curtains at 11:30 at night. Things like this are of such common occurrence that it is hard to get the girl to iron the curtains or the premises of her employer at night. When a girl is obtained who will stay on the place at night, she is sometimes subjected to much extra work. "Doubtless, she will have to work to near midnight, then be subject to call at any hour, or else will have to attend the babv during the night hours. In addition to this, she is expected to rise early the next morning just as if she had had a full night's sleep. Discrimination in Wages The wares paid the domestic help here in Baltimore are not equalized. A white girl will generally be paid $10 or $2 in some cases, and not be paid $10 or $2 in others. Families a colored girl will be hired, paid $7 or $8 per week, and be required to do the laundry work in addition to other duties. More Work. Less Wares "Generally, all unemployed are making with less help. They have the same amount of work as heretofore, but they are doubling the duties on the shoulders of a less number. They are making with less help. One a large amount of extra work they would be willing to pay something more, but such is not the case. The work doubles and the pay remains." The "Green Spring Valley district" in Baltimore has the reputation of being one of the fairest neighborhood. The responders are not afraid to add to this they are considerate of their help. Immigrant Help "There are not so many immigrants now as we were during the fall months. The failure of the past season's cotton crop due to the ravage of the hurricane has caused its share of migration. "Many employers have complained that many of the women coming from the South are not accustomed to working with women, that the women for the most part work in the factories and in the field. They do not have the time to put the finer touches even on their homes, homes are not the place the skilled employers demands. "On the other hand, the southern women who can cook are excellent, and they receive the highest praise from the employers. The time to train the prospective domestic, she makes a good servant. But most employers do not have the time nor patience to do Suggestions "If I were going to tell a woman just how she could make her more useful, she would be on time and be reliable. Too many of our people do not realize the value of a woman's qualities. It is difficult for them to do that. An employer cannot be blamed when she becomes irritated because the servant who she expected did not amuse, leave her, or in her absence. It is all day when such a thing occurs in the morning." 40 ROUTED BY FLAMES NEW YORK-Eight families, consisting of forty persons, were rented blm flames which startled the house at 2161 Seventh Avenue, last week.

ONE KILLED AS GIRL'S RIVALS SHOOT IT OUT Youths Said to Have Carried Guns for Each Other Six Months VICTIM FIRED FIRST Miss Gladys Wilson is Witness of Tragedy (Reprinted from last week's City Edition) The flame of a feud, fanned by the jealousy of two young men, burst into white heat here Sunday when Edward Savage, 1529 Leslie Street, was mortally wounded in a duel with Solomon Brooks, 1403 Argule Avenue. The killing is said to have been the outcome of efforts of the two young men to win the love of a certain unnamed woman. For the past six months, police learned, the men have been rivals, and have carried guns expecting trouble with each other. Met at Home to Friend Northwestern district police summoned to the home of Miss Wilson 947 Mount Street, Sunday. found Savage lying on the sidewalk in front of the home with bullet wounds in his body. He was rushed to Provident Hospital where he died a half hour later. Investigation showed that Brook and Quincy Toney 816 N. Mount St. were seated in the home of Miss Wilson when Savage and Joseph Hoopen visited the house. Savage is said to have greeted Miss Wilson and then to have remarked that he intended to do some dirty work. Immediately, it was said, he pulled a pistol and fired two shots which missed their target and crashed through a dining room window. Stage Duel By this time Brooks jumped to his feet and started returning the fire firing three times at his antagonist. Savage suddenly whirled around and started for the door, with Brooks continuing the firing. Savage fell in front of the house while Brooks made his escape through the back door.

Ray Jackson, 32, 422 Somerset Street, was struck by a car after a hearing in the Northeastern Continued From Page One murred, but when he was offered $1,000 to do the work, he agreed. Since Pierson's death, no one has been able to locate a man named Morehead and the drug of interest, and the theory is advanced that his m.m.'s approach was a part of the plot to get Pierson out of the way. Seandal Expected That a scandal when may rock the foundation of the Baptist. Convention may result from the killing. Baptist officials believe. For some time there have been charges of financial irregularities in the dispense money of the National Publishing Board of which Dr. A. M. Townsend secretary. Reports showed, officials say, that although the income of the publishing house was still $100,000, it still more than $600,000. Since the last convention there has been insistent clamor for an investigation into the financial affairs of the publisher. Auditors Ousted The record of the publishing board has not pleased leaders of the denomination. Its books were once audited by Robert Mitchell of Kentucky, he was ousted by the board, and he charged that he was accepting a salary from the publishing house management and sending them his stamp as auditor to be affixed to his reports without his ever having gone to the auditor. The next auditor appointed was also let out when it was charged that he accepted a bribe in the form of an expensive car. Pierson succeeded Roger and his ever having gone to the auditor, the confidence not only of President Williams, but a large number of the leaders in the convention of the Chicago a salary of $350 per month and expenses plus a secretary and the expected him film immune from bribery, it is said. To Quiz Heads Following the assignment of Ocean Ridley and James of the department of the Chicago detective bureau, to the case, it has been announced that Dr. J. D. Crenshaw, editor of the National Baptist Voice, and Dr. J. W. East of Philadelphia, secured foreign missions, Shortage in the accounts of these two departments have been alleged, $62,000 "Jugged" According to Roy Darden, investigator for the Nashville district attorney, Pierson's audit of the books of Dr. A. M. Townsend had shown that a loan of $62,000 to the Nashville district attorney was "jugged," the auditor had a report of his findings in the Nashville books which, it was presumed, he intended to turn over to his superior, Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the National Baptist Convention, in Chicago. In a report was the only article in his possession taken by the slavers. Activities Traced Brussels's investigations traced Plerson's activities after leaving Nashville and then found at five minutes after eight, he arrived in Louisville at two-fifteen in the morning. He was met there by three men who told him that he was going to Indiana, Ohio, but to Columbus, Ind., which is seventy miles north of Louisville. There was no train out of the town, so the men suggested, according to red caps who carried the bags, that they make the trip in a Cadillac touring car which they had. Plerson is said to have a forehead. The touring car here an Illinois license. A description of one of the three men tallied exactly with that of the alleged forehead. Plerson was on March 27 with the drug store auditing proposition. This man was dark-brown skinned, of slightly more than average height, in the neighborhood of 200 pounds. Message Traced Scottsburg is thirty miles out of Louisville, or about an hour's ride. The murder is therefore believed to have occurred at about half-past three Wednesday morning. At eleven o'clock Wednesday morning, an official of the Sunday School publishing board is alleged to have approached Pierson's secretary in Nashville, and after stating that Pierson had been murdered, demanded the books and papers. At that hour no word had been received in Chicago of Pierson's death, and no word was sent from Scottsburg, according to the sheriff and coroner, because there was nothing found on Pierson to indicate that he was from Nashville. But investigation did disclose that at seven o'clock a long-distance call was made from Columbus, Indiana, to Nashville, an occurrence which the telephone company admitted was unusual for that hour of the day. A guard was asked for the Nashville office. Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the convention, was in Detroit at the time the murder occurred. His assistance was truly noncommittal when questioned on the subject of the murder. He could throw no light on possible enemies of Pierson or of the probable action the convention board would Much Strife Within Baptist ranks there has been a developing strife among ministers who have driven themselves into the church, Dr. William Dent, is leader of the most substantial and powerful elements within the church, but investigation has disclosed that some of the men who have been involved in the indications of playing with the other faction. One of his most dependable men, however, was Prof. Pierson. He was a professor of business administration within the church was unlost of Pierson was vigilant and tireless in obliterating waste and dishonesty and he church represented the strong arm of the president. He had brought about the dismissal of several offenders, his son said. He was born in Texas. For many years he taught school there and published a newspaper. He is survived by his widow and a son, Don Pierson, a printer. police court. Monday.

IRREGULARITIES IN BAPTIST CONVENTION Continued. From Page One the denomination like Professor J. R. Brown, then late Matthew W. Gilbert, Dr. E. C. Morris and the Rev. W. H. Moses all tried at various times to get Isaacs and Boyd together again, Many men felt that the hurling of the publishing plant into the vortex of an annual political cauldron would end in financial catastrophe for the plant. The National Training School conducted by Miss Nannie H. Burroughs. But the Boyd side won, and when it was found that the plant had safety features with the plant he'd b'it un, there was a split, and the National Baptist Convention, incorporated, was organized. This body carried with the majority of the reform convention, but which the local churches which the publishing house had served with literature. Many Boards Loosely Managed Under the new organization, the many boards continued under loose administration, make their reports in generalities to the National Con- The new publishing board stated cut with a program which brought in existence a $500,000 plant, which from its incipiency has been among financial breachers of the secretary. Dr. A. M. Townden, was first a practicing physician, then president of the Roger Williams University in Nashville and later pastor of a Baptist Church in Memphis, Tennessee, before assuming responsibility of co-owning this vast new publishing business. Some idea of what the secretaryship of one of these boards means may be given from a recent report and balance sheet of the secretary. E. W. D. Isaacs is still the corresponding secretary. This report lists assets for the year 1924 of $55,133 and carried a salary for the secretary of about $6,000. It has been openly charged that irregularities existed in some of the accounts c. the various boards, and it has been these accounts which caused its present president, Dr. L. K. Williams, to attempt at tightening to his attempts at tightening against these financial leaks. Accounts Audited Although for years Mr. Pierson had been auditing the accounts of the convention, it was charged that only within the last few years, have there been any definite figures upon which to base his judgment. This year, it is said, he was sent out to get the facts and was about to report some damaging irregularities when he was found mortally wounded after what his family and friends believed to have been a well worked out plot to get him out of the way. Largest Denomination The Baptist denomination is the largest Negro religious community in the United States. The Census Tract 10, page 208, describes the 1,966,623 as the membership of the Baptist groups. Studies of individual contributions in various sections of the country indicate an average contribution, aside from the taxes, at $3.20 per member annually. This means that about $1,299,125 goes into the salaries and expenses of the churches each year. Other studies, based on an estimate of around 3,000 delegates at the national Baptist Convention annually, show that this national body costs the people "back home" from $300,000 to $500,000 each year. As the Baptist maintain no boards of bishops and general officers conducting national activities, any extensive mission field work, most of their money finds its way into the hands of the pastors and officials of the county, state and national bodies.

While the troop has participated in local activities, it was the first time that it had taken part in a state-wide demonstration. First Aid Tests Especially in first aid tests, did teams consisting of Scouts Allen Collick, Emmett Holt, Charles Henson, and Albert Hall, make good records. Given hypothetical cases in which white scouts were injured, these boys were called upon to apply the right first aid dressing and bandaging of wounds, and they did it with a quickness and neatness which drew praise from white officials in charge of the demonstration. No Liscrimination The value of the scout organization in cementing intercultural good will among youth was demonstrated in the sportsmanship of both white and colored scouts in carrying out first aid test. Were scouts used colored scouts as subjects in the tests and the colored scouts used whites. The mobilization was a test whereby officials of the Maryland area were trained in the use of elephants and first aid and as a general demonstration for the public. On entering the stadium, each troop was given instructions. At 3:00 oclock the first aid teams went to the hospital and wounded "wounded cups" attached to whom were cards describing their injuries. After giving first aid they were sent to treat other kinds of wounds with other scouts. A signal would then be given to the scouts to signal in scout code would bring scouts who would bear the wounded scout to the "hospital" where physicians examined and checked up on the efficiency of the scouts and aid treaters on scouts selected Troop No. 275, under supervision of Scoutmaster Leroy Coles and Assistant Scoutmaster Levi H.

Numerous Entertainments for Out-of-Town Visitors. Dear Pansy: Who would have thought that Easter week coming so late wouldn't have been just what the doctor ordered—but it was not. The continued rainy week threw a damper over the hundred or more people who had planned weeks ahead to show off their pretties in the great celebration and to bolster the colony of Atlantic City boardwalk. However, there was outpouring of excursionists from the railroad stations, busses dropping off their share on the popular avenues, and motorcars stopping at the Wright and Ridgely hotels. There were precious few from Baltimore, but quite a number from other places, to add to the colorful procession of promenaders, in spite of continued wearisome week of rain. But, Pansy, with the prediction of kind Mr. Weatherman for clear skies on Easter Sunday, the brilliant sun really shone with the mercury reaching. The few folks from Baltimore, with quite a number from New York, some from Philadelphia, and Wilmington, were among the jam on the boardwalk, and many of the services at St. Augustine P. E., Abush M. E., and K. S. James A.M. E., Churches. The styles, the styles—capes featuring on suits, coats and dresses; fitted dresses with heels tying at a high heel; coats with belts tying at a high waist; and straw hats out-numbering those of felts, were some of the smart outfits glimpsed among the visitors who came to be seen rather than to see. The shades were varied and shade. Prints and solid colors were exhibited in the frocks which were extremely long in points. And, on the colored shoes, with pink shoes to match was the latest fad that added to the already smart costumes. The chill from the ocean breezes as the sun lowered behind the horizon sent the eagle visitors toward Arctic Circle. The sun was brightly visible to be observed by the curious home folk in their sun parlor and doorways. Waitresses were kept busy with the dresses and the clothes of the Wright and Ridgely hotels, trying to satisfy the many hungry strollers. Atlantic City hosties entertained at delightful card parties and dinners, hosting out-of-town relatives and friends. A bunch of the young folks just crowded Fitzgerald's at the breakfast prom on Easter Monday. At night, they played basketball game at the Soldiers Home. But, Pansy, the climax was the big ball starting at midnight on Easter Sunday. The beautiful ladies and the little gowns and the music made you think you were in the seventh heaven. Quiet and reserved people, like dear Mrs. James Hughes, were seen reciting hymns in the sun parlor at Wright's Hotel. Mary Hughes, by the way, was with her mother. Connie Murphy, Hilda Anderson and Ann Armstrong, the new wife, arm, naturally walked the boardwalk, taking everything in, and looking way out of this world. Mr. and Mrs. John Woodhouse, who had a trip down due to trouble with the Indians, nevertheless in the lime-light and were among the prominent people taking their meals at the Ridgely Hotel in the Indiana Avenue. Mrs. Emma Bright, Waltie Murphy, and Ralph Bright, even though registered at the Ridgely Hotel, were very on the principal streets and avenues. Annul iage of Son, 17 Happening to be strolling past the Wright Hotel, a glimpse in the dining room revealed Mrs. George Murray's son, William, the son of a nursing son, Lawrence, Jr., and her hubby, his mother and sister, Mrs. Young, and Elizabeth, from Wilmington, Del. Excursion trains, however, pulled up the bushel of bulk of Easter visitors. Easter Monday afternoon carried the remainder of the folks homeward bound in time for their schools and business offices on the morning. And maybe the few that are remaining to the end of the week, Atlantic City looks as forsaken as in the middle of winter. However, soon the season opens, and seaside lovers will be pour in again, despite the high prices, to eat, to sleep, and to make merry. MR. AND MRS.
