"Wash" Won't Talk About Love Suit Negro Served as First Royal Governor of Massachusetts Sir William Phipps Knighted and Awarded $1,500,000 by British Government; Had Brilliant Career. FLIES FROM HAITI AS EIGHTH EXILE BOSTON, Mass.—A fact, buried from many in historical publications, including the Encyclopedia Britannica, has emerged through the surface as a result of the three hundredth anniversary celebration of the Bay Colony, when it was recalled that the first Royal governor of Massachusetts was a Negro. Although the biography of this brilliant official, Sir William Phipps, has been written by many well known authors, and his career recorded in state papers, the facts concerning his race have been omitted by most of these accounts. The tercentenary booklet, however, a literary key to the three hundredth anniversary celebration being observed this year, definitely sets out that Sir William began his career as a Negro boy. In the historical section of this publication under the subject "The Times in the War of Buritans Lived," by no less an authority than Dr. Albert Bunnell Hart, and taken from his "Commonwealth History of Massachusetts," the fact that Sir William was a Negro is thus set forth unmistakably. Cotton Mather, also well known educator, minister and author, says Sir William was born in Bristol, Maine, February 2, 1651, his father James Philipse, a mairman of 26 Children. According to this authority, his mother gave birth to 26 children, 21 of whom were boys. William, one of the younger brothers, was 18 when he died. The future Negro governor of the Bay state married the fashionable young widow of John Hill, a wealthy merchant. During his career, he was a shepherd, a carpenter, and a trader. It was in the latter vocation that he made a fortune in an adventure which brought to him the English ship "Oceanic" in 1000 AD he recovered for the government gold bouldon valued at several millions of dollars from a wrecked Spanish ship. In 1680, after capturing Port Royal in Nova Scotia, he was appointed first governor of Nova Scotia. Stopped Witchercraft During his administration he fought and put a stop to witchcraft persecutions, and during the glorious 1780s he no man contributed more to the culture of the times than Sir William He died February 18, 1694, in London.

PARENTS TALK Her Folks Glad Doctor Loved their Girl. BY RALPH MATTHEWS NEWARK, N. J.-Out on Winns Avenue, a little sepia-hued girl is not at all jubilant over the fact that overnight she became the possessor of $20,000, awarded her by a sympathetic jury, because that money is supposed to perform a task that money cannot do—mend a broken heart. That sum must be placed on the altar of love by Dr. William Henry Washington, middle-aged and reputable physician, for his failure to lead Miss Ethel Cannon to the more substantial altar of matrimony after a clandestine courtship of four years. That sum must be offered in publication, and a jury is granted and a new jury makes a new award or says "no damage." Real Melodrama All of the elements of a melodrama are to be found in this romance of real life between the daughter of an humble truckman and the wealthy and noted physician, who has been a prominent and respected citizen of Newark for the past quarter century. Met Ten Years Ago The two met first ten years ago, when the girl was a curly-headed school child. The doctor, handsome then as he is today, despite the avenges of time, became a sort of ideal to the baby girl in the Cannon home when he called to attend one of her older sisters. The years rolled by and she grew to womanhood. Then she and the physician met again. Whether by design, or accident, neither is prepared to say, but the girl, conscious that she was no longer the child she was when first they met, met no pretense to hide the feeling she had for him. The physician, now a widower, was not unmindful of her charms and a mutual friendship developed. Don't Tell mamma What were the intentions of the DR. WM. H. WASHINGTON mature doctor toward the then 17- year-old high school girl, who slipped off to go riding in his car? Was she destined to be merely a toy in his bands? Why was it that he wanted to keep their love affair secret? Why wouldn't he come to the house? All these questions are being asked as friends poke into the ashes of their dead romance.

STATUE OF ACTOR SINGER REFUSED AT ART EXHIBIT Sculptor Surprised, for Bronze Had Been Requested for Exhibit. Stupid is Comment of Daily Record. (Philadelphia AFRO Bureau) PHILADELPHIA. — "To have the Negro here all dressed up, is bad enough, but when he takes his clothes off, it's too bad." That is the sum and substance of the action-taken by the white Philadelphia Art Alliance, which last week barred from its open air exhibition the mide statue of Paul Robeson by Art Grounds, white, on the ground that "the colored problem seems to be unusually great in Philadelphia." Mr. Salemme, one of New York's most highly regarded young sculptors, whose huge bronze figure of Robeson, the famous athlete, actor and singer, was recently exhibited in a prominent place at the Brooklyn Museum and had been invited by the Alliance, to submit the statue for entry in its prize contest. Relection Surprises Consequently, when he received a letter from Walter Hancock, white, one of the judges in the contest, rejecting the work, he was astonished beyond measure. The artificial problem created by the Philadelphia Museum created a museum in the more broad-minded artistic circles of other cities, and has started waves of protest and criticism. Miss Mason, white, director of the exhibition, is charged with the responsibility for the committee's rejection of the Robeson statue. Alliance Called "Stupid." Commenting on the failure of the Art Alliance to exhibit this bronze, the Philadelphia Record in an editorial on Friday, under a heading of "Color Line in Art," invited the "Color Line in Art" series. Which is the mating epithet for the action of the Art Alliance in rejecting the big, colorful sculpture by the Negro actor and singer, offered in New York sculptor for exhibition here; honored in New York. The name statue that was rejected in Philadelphia was displayed prominently at the Brooklyn We don't know just why Robeson should have been reproduced in bronze and the "altogether." But the lack of clothing is not the reason for the rejection. The reason stated is that "the color problem seems to be unusually great in Philadelphia." Is it true that "the color problem" in Philadelphia is so "unusually great," that it is advisable to run away from it? Of course not! Rejection of the statue on the grounds given was certainly not an act of wise discretion; it does not forestall trouble, but invites it. (If open discussion of an elementary human problem is "trouble") As we would rather not describe it as an act of cowardice—rather, it seems to us an act of sheer inexcusable stupidity. As in such matters, stupidity is worse than prudishness, worse than cowardice—because it makes the city a laughing-stock, and deserved ridicule hurts more than a blow. The Art Alliance created an artificial issue which can only impede progress in the arts, and may the real issue of racial adjustment. When a reporter from the APROAMERICAN Inquired at the Art Alliance as to the reason why the Robeson statue was barred, he was told that the Art Alliance had nothing to miss. Miss Mason, the director of the exhibition, also declined to talk.

ENGINEER SUES Wants Money to Pay Garvey Debts. WASHINGTON—Echoes of the ill-fated Black Star Line of the Universal Negro Improvement Association were again heard in court when the U.S. Court of Claims took under advisement recently the case of John Garrett, who is trying to get part of a $21,824 deposit made some time ago by Marcus Garvey, an assistant which he has a judgment for $8,836. Garrett's claim grows out of his connection with the Garvey shipping enterprise as marine engineer of the steamship Kanawha and for which he claims wages and subsistence for parts of the years 1921 and 1922. On July 23, 1923, Garrett obtained a judgment for the $5,388 Black Jack game. In 1929, bought in the Court of Claims on this judgment. Besides Garrett's judgment, there are pending judgment claims against Black Star Line more than $30,000. Part Payment In 1921, the Black Star Line contracted to purchase a vessel from the U.S. Shipping Board for $25,000. The amount, $21,524, which is being held by the government, is the money paid on this purchase of the vessel, which was never delivered on account of the failure of the Black Star Line to pay the balance, and the arrest of Garvey. The government, with its money belongs to the defunct Black Star Line and it is liable for its obligations. The government, however, claims that there having been appointed no receiver for the contract, Garvey has not asserted its asset; until all creditors had a chance to share in the division. The Black Star Line was dissolved by the chlorine wafer for the non- polluting of taxes. Drs. Scott and Hawkins Feted in Cleveland WASHINGTON. D.C. — John R. Hawkins, and Dr. Emmett J.

The girl accepted his explanation that he was almost as old as her father and was afraid that if her folks knew, they could not allow anything to come between them. Kent From Mother That is why she did not confide in her sweet, old, gray-haired mother who had carefully supervised the marrying off of her five older sisters to good, hard-working husbands. That is why the first news that Mother Cannon got of the whole affair came from a reporter after the breach of promise suit was filed—just four years too late. "Perpetual Bridegroom" During those four years, the doctor won for himself the term, which was applied to him in court of "perpetual bridegroom." As the years rolled by, the girl, feeling herself now of age, became impatient to be the mistress of the inposing mansion which she had visited so often to hold rendezvous with her porter lover. Had he not asked her to become his wife? He had not declared that the variance in their ages could make no difference? Then why did he always put her off? Why was he apparently anxious to possess her, even to the point of giving her an engagement bag to bind their truth, a travelling bag fitted for their Toronto honeymoon, a bejeweled wrist watch that she might not be late when the wedding bells chimed out? Why was he perpetually ready to whisk her off to the minister, but always backed down? "Daddy" "Peaches" Letters These things set that little head to working, as the girl began to wonder how long these matrimonial post-prenntions would continue. Was she being kidded along only to be dropped for a fairer flower? She prepared for the worst by saving those encaring letters from "Daddy" to "Peaches," thinking that some day they would prove useful. Feeling that she could be trifled with no longer, the youn, woman filed suit for breach of promise one year ago. The doctor said she would withdraw the suit and sign a paper releasing him from any obligation, he would marry her at once. The girl signed the release and withdrew the suit from her, but not from her lawyer, who instructed to keep it on until after the ceremony. Broke Promises The head of the girl who known as "Teachest" swam, but suddenness of it all. But she sufficiently calm to help her suit tacking on an additional $50,000 to the $25,000 damages demanded in the "He ain't done Right by Nell," Sars Papa "I don't think Dr. Washington done right by my wife," he said, filling his pipe with tobacco and lighting it with a stick stuck in the gate of the kitchen "I figure he ain't a day younger than I am, but, of course, he looks a heap younger 'cause he don't have to do nothing but think while I have to piddle around right smear.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, May 31, 1930 Women's Bureau Head Says Women are Dropping Out of Industries. D.C.SOCIETY (Washington Bureau of the AFRO) WASHINGTON.—That the recent census will reveal that the colored women gainfully employed in various capacities have undergone material changes in the last decade due to new employment factors, is the opinion of Miss Mary Anderson, white, director of the United States Women's Bureau. The census is regarded as the scientific basis upon which the government bases its studies of the women wage-earners in the United States. "It is hazardous to guess," said Miss Anderson, the number of women actively employed, but it seems safe to predict that the 1930 census will reveal a picture similar to the last in regard to the occupational trend of women.

BANNISTER, Manager DRESSMAKER'S LOVE FOR PASTOR BARED Continued From Page One declared, "because he is not ignorant, the Bishop knows me. He knows just who I am and he might be asked why Rev. Brown has been allowed, remain at Mother Jones, twenty years when other masters were shifted about. Well let them bring the bishop in if they want to." Members Also Knew "Why even members of the congregation have asked me when married and I were married, or to them even though I tried to conceal my attitude. "For eleven years I was a worker in Zion and I am not as ashamed to admit that many overtures were made to me during that time. I was offered many positions in the Rose contact with the pastor, even to be his private secretary. Most of these offers I refused. I had access to the pastor's study and my interest in church work took me there a great deal. "The members who are so willing to stand behind the pastor will only have to look around among their number to find many another drooping head and broken heart. I am by no means the only one of them, although for years, I thought I was. Since this case broke into print I learn there are several who hoped they might be led to the altar. Some of them are too proud to confess, but I will hold up my head and tell the world that I have "I have praved over the matter. I have wept about it, but I have decided that regardless of what others who loved him might do, I will not let him get away with this and violate the trust I put in him." Sweetheart When asked if the pastor called her by any pet names during their courtship, Mrs. Alexander admitted that he always called her "sweetheart." "But that," she added, was not me alone. One day I insisted him for calling her another sister by the name I alone was entitled when he explained that he called everybody "sweetheart." Nobody Knows What went on that fateful night that brought her romance before the public will be revealed when the case is brought to court, the young woman "The minister did not tell the truth about it and I am not ready to tell. He said that I assaulted him, but he did not tell me. He brushed and my landlady had to put me to bed." When asked if the pastor ever visited her at her home, Mrs. Alexander said that he did not. "The Woman Mrs. Alexander declared that she was most surprised of all to know that the pastor, intent to Miss Andrea Brooklyn of Brooklyn, that the pastor has been making numerous visits to Brooklyn," she said, "and that Miss Lindsay has been a frequent visitor at the church, the past few weeks, that the pipe organ. I wondered why, but was informed that Mother Zion had the best pipe organ. "Not more than a week before the announcement that they were to marry, Rev. Mr. K. to marry, Rev. Mr. K. and assured me that this was not true and for me not to worry," she explained. No Statement The pastor refused to talk to a reporter when referring him to Ford Hawkins, attorney. to JOHN L.

(Washington Bureau of the AFRO) WASHINGTON. — "Why Negra Business in Washington is Indifferent, in Spite of Its Many Advantages," was discussed by business men professors and economic students who met at a lunchroom and summarily frowned upon until 2 p.m. the Howard University dining room. While it was stated at the outset by Fred Minnis, economic student, that no specific solution might be reached, an application of the different views would lead to a solution. Following a three-course course, Minnis was born by the leader, R. N. Mattingly, principal of the Cardozo Business High School. Among other things, Mr. Mattingly said, "Washington has over one hundred thousand Negroes, and one of the largest salary lists of any city, and it is sad to think that little progress has been made, along commercial Searching for a cause for the poor development.

"There must be needs." averred Mr. Mattingly, "before needs can be developed which caters to those needs. "We must create motives and incentives for persons to patronize our group rather than submit to insults from the public. We are helping to solve the problem.

SCHOOLS NAT'L HONOR SOCIETY IS CREMATED WASHINGTON.—The new platoon school to be erected in northeast Washington at a cost of $550,000 is the first school in the city. Young, according to information in the office of the first assistant superintendent of schools, Garnet C. Wilkinson, is a junior high school, which is to be built at a cost of $500,000, will be named for Hugh E. Brown, who was a teacher in the old M Street Huffman. Prof. Brown was the first principal of Baltimore's first colored high school. He later went to Chevey, New York, where he was principal of the first Cheveyyn high school. The educator traveled to Liberia, where he was made professor of sciences in the College of Liberia. While in Liberia, he went to the industrial education in all the schools of the republic. Three other schools for which plans are being made are the names of Robert E. Terrell, A. H. Grimke, and Moorefield Storey. lie what he has. He keeps his wares hid "Failure to produce is another mistake. If we are going to take our goods, we have got to produce something in competition with others. People will patronize us if we have the goods, but don't, they will go somewhere else." New Yorker Speaks Augustine A. Austine, president of the Antillian Holding Company of New York, with assets over one million dollars, said he would be a maker. Among other things, he said: "I think that the need of business in Washington, as with our group elsewhere, is the essential but should not enter into it with the idea of making money but with the idea of giving service. Our business men forget that the value of the business is the money." "If we go into the business just for the purpose of making money, without the idea of service, we will fall, as well as lose the money. If we do not think any factor will prevail that will contribute to our failure." "The crying need is the right motive and the right spirit to insure the consumer value." Engineering G. Williams, electrical engineer of New York, said briefly: "The Negro business must gain confidence in their products, then they expect." "We have about 125,000 Negroes in Washington," averred J. P. M. Purchaser, assistant professor of economics at Howard, "which means that we have about 125,000 with an annual income of $200,000,000." "The trouble with Negro business in Washington is that a good portion of this money is not kept in the race. To my mind, this is the problem; we could keep a larger amount of this money in the race, w. could subsidize. "We must train business men to be more efficient to meet the competition. When this done, we can expect to see a significant increase in the consumer must be trained to realize the value of co-operative buying through the schools, the churches, moving pictures, and other agencies of education."

TEACHERS RESPONSIBLE Principal Houston to Get 3rd Howard Degree. WASHINGTON, (Special) — Characterizing the announcement as one of the most pleasant experiences of his educational career, Principal G. David Houston informed the faculty and students in assembly, on Friday, May 23, that word had just been received in the morning mall that the High School had been enrolled as a school of Honor Society and that the charter of the Armstrong Chapter was being engrossed.

The influence of the campaign was felt throughout the school. Students have been inspired to look upon high scholarship as worthy of their best Teachers Responsible Possibly the most dynamic force behind the improved scholarship at Armstrong has been the commendable professional attitude of the teachers, who are presently on its toes, alert to modify, extend, initiate, or remove any feature of the educational program that means the general improvement of Armstrong. The teachers are actions are being reflected in the students. On February 1, 1926, Mr. Francis de Smith was the only member of the faculty, with the exception of the principle, who became the first teacher.

The following persons were asked, "How does the Amos n' Andy radio feature react on the race? Do you think they are uninformed about the Negro credit for his contributions to present day progress?" Dr. Carter G. Woodson, Author, Historian and Lecturer: "I think the rise of Amos and Andy is most unfortunate for the Negro in America. It would have been better had the race neve, heard of them. The feature emphasizes the lack of culture in the indifferent Negro at expense, and the slim glove upward. Like many other stage and theatrical performances, the feature is very much exaggerated. "Nevertheless, it takes root in the public minds of this country as truth. This is so because the public is prejudiced to the Negro and will give anything that tends to be little him." "This comic performance might be excused if it portrayed some peculiar philosophy of the age of the Reformation. This was the object to Nedra dialect, but when it is interpreted by Dunbar, it becomes Dunbar. In Amos and Andy, one forgets that it is dialect, but thinks of the beautiful philosophy of the age of the people it is depicting and it loses its Bishop E. D. W. Jones, A.M.E. Zion Church: "To my mind Amos and Andy are the cleanest fun on the radio, the newer, the vulgar or more funnel manner. They make a great appeal to the public mind because they are true to life. "In Amos, we have the hard working, honest, frugal Negro. Generally, we find Amos and honest *after* things. "Andy represents the no-goid Negro, no one can tell him anything. He always resorts to some shams to prevent Amos's good intents. "In King Fish, we have the secret society Hind, who preys on his fellow-cultures of certain oaths and obligations. "Lighting is the no-account, trifling, disgraceful creature who will not work. He is the type of which the race is trying to be trained." "Has Fat is the professional faker." "Madam Queen is a double dealer." "He taylor is an upright, forward, true lover, respectful to her parents and faithful to her duties." "The popularity of this portrayal of Negro subjects is due to its human appeal. The characters cannot be on board, the Negro is a great actor. So that they might know something of Negro characters. I wish everyone in America would see Green Pastures and get the anthromorphic lesson." Miss Mabel Johnson: "Amos and Andy show what the race is not, and they're no credit to us. They are generally so silly that I do not pay any attention to them." Thurman, Dodson, Attorney: "A certain type of the race are portrayed-by Amos-and Andy. We cannot get anywhere...by denying the truth "If many Negroes had the sense of Amos we would not be drawers of water and hewers of wood. And honest. Beneath him weighed of ignorance, though we knew a keen insight, though of intuitive native ability, that he understands after all. "The group can do well to emulate Amos and his common sense ideas. The lesson we get from Amos is, he gets into many affairs by his trust in mankind." Mr. Morris Lewis, Secretary to Congressman DePriest: "Why should a white man capitalize us and receive approval for something we would consider, which we would consider a member of our own group? "Amos and Andy are of no advantage to the race. He is doing something thing over the hill that would condemn them. Some might counter and say 'What about Williams and Walker?' That is a different proposition. He will discover a subtle propaganda in films, comic strips, and news stories which place the Negro as a vantage. It is done to discredit the race, and we are not doing anything James A. Jackson, Business Specialist "Amos is presented with no intention to injure. The producers have simply capitalized to a greater extent their own comedians, the primary moranceance comedians among Negroes to business. The producers set their cue from Williams and Lyle. Burned Brown, Green and the host of other comedians. They should not be held against them. "I have found Amos and I will be useful as a attention and attention to their work. Their work has given an opportunity to interest a number of people to the extent of written-colored businesses who might have been concerned for some." society.

The Supreme Court decision of 1929 recognizes the Negro as an American and the internal rights which must be respected by all. "The decision came as the culmination of a ten-year fight through the courts of Texas and the Supreme Court of the United States, and it affects all the fraternal organizations in the United States which bear the names and emblems of their Anglo-Saxon brethren, and the security should be one of rejoicing. Past Potentate Dies Potentate Blake received a telegram from New York prior to the visit of the Past Imperial Potentate Phillips.

LYNCHING 30 Negroes Dragged from Homes as Posse Hunts Alleged Rapists FATHER HELD Parent and Youth Now Being Questioned. TARBORO, N. C.—After a man hunt of two weeks in which more than thirty men were lodged in jail in an effort to locate the "two Negroes" who were alleged to have assaulted a white girl and shot her escort on a lonely road, new developments led to the arrest of the girl's father and a white youth in connection with the crime. More than one thousand men took part in the man-hunt with shot guns and bloodhounds, and mob sentiment was at such a level that such action was needed at any moment during the tense days of the search. Negroes were tracked through the swamps, dragged from their homes, and maltreated until Sheriff Edward Bardin, and Fool John Bardin, investigated, blasted the girl's story of the alleged rape and found that she had manufactured the story to protect her father, Joe Powell and Walter E Branley, and her to hire Frank Crickmore to the place where they shot him. Girl Tells Story According to the story told by Elizabeth Jane Powell, 18-year-old white girl, she and Crickmore were riding in the latter's automobile on the Rocky Mount highway about 10:30 p.m., when they were stopped by two Negroes who asked for a answer. Before Crickmore could answer, one of the men placed a gun at the side of his neck and fired. The discharge tore away his larynx and spattered blood and flesh across the nasal cavity from the nasal cavity the girl declared, while she was carried to a lonely spot some distance away and assaulted. She later gave the alarm which sent the police to the warpath with bloodhounds and riffes. Farmer Tells of Plot The story of a farmer put the first crimp in the girl's story and so convinced the authorities that they are certain that the story of the rape was a hoax, and all the police help in the execution with the crime were dismissed. John Garris, white, said that he overheard a conversation between Joe Powell, Battlehorn poacher, father of the crime, who had to have been dragged by the Negroes, and Brantley which he said took place on the day of the crime and was as follows: "He's agreed to do it, but wants me to help him." Brantley told the Delaware DOVER DOVER, Del.-Guests over the week-and on Lake Superior, Dr. Hawkins, from Newark, N.J.; Mr. and Mrs. Dahney, from Brooklyn, N.Y.; Mrs. and Mrs. Richardson, from Richardson, Md.; Mr. Turner, is owner and proprietor.

Mr. Borno is the eighth Haitian ruler to choose the exile method of prolonging his life. In Port-au-Prince today lives General F. D. Legitime, president of Haiti, 1868-89. "Despite an administration characterized by intelligence, honesty, devotion to the people and to peace, his government was overthrown by a revolution and fearing for his life, he sought exile abroad forty-one years ago. When revolutions succeed in Haiti, the defeated President faces the alternative of leaving the country or being killed. This is what has happened to many a Haitian president since the exile of General Legitime referred to above. Note the following: Florillé Hippolite—1889-1896; died of heart trouble suppressing a rebellion. François Gouffran—completed seven-year term, retired, exiled himself to France. Nord Alexis—1903-1908; facing a victorious rebel army, he resigned and exiled himself to Jamaica. Ralph Ripli—to proclaim down Tancrede Auguste-1912-1913; died of disease. Michel Orteau-1913-1914; resigned during revolution. Ousti Zamor-1914 (Feb. to Oct.); resigned during revolution. Davidhevich-Dorev-1014 to Mar. 1915; resigned during revolution. Viburnum Mar.-March to July, 1915; assassinated. during revolution. Philippe Dartigueau-e-1915-1922; resigned after revolution. completing seven-year form. Louis Bornoi-1922-1936: forced out of office by U.S. Commission; exiled to Cuba But today General Legitimate is back in Port-au- Prince. He is regarded as Haiti's most be- loved and most highly respected citizen. He has been served to serve his country on international commissions, and at 80 and happy contentedly in the midst of a large and happy family. Haiti's fourteen different African tribes, not welded more than at any previous period into united nation, realize the nation's error in forcin- ing the exile of General Legitimate, and today the seek to make amends. In the case of ex-President Borno, it is ex- remely unlikely that he will ever be welcome home by patriotic Haitians. They know as we know him, as President, Mr Borno betrayed his country and sold himself to administrations from Wilson to Boulogne. Perhaps those who have used him for their own purposes have seen to it that he has his hirty pieces of silver, which may be all that he hally cares for.

Gross and Contemptuous Insult Gross and Contemptuous Insult Miss Helen Elizabeth f the Baltimore Women has been mea- the legislature from t This is the same B go, sent a letter to Briscoe as an assist and contemptuous in In her letter Miss S Miss Helen Elizabeth Brown, white, a member of the Baltimore Federation of Republican Women has been mentioned as a candidate for the legislature from the Fourth District. This is the same Miss Brown who two years ago, sent a letter to Mayor Yost with a request that Mr. Arthur Briscoe as an assistant city collector, a "gross and contemptuous insult" to women of Baltimore. In her letter Miss Brown said to the Mayor: Miss Helen Elizabeth Brown, white, a member of the Baltimore Federation of Republican Women has been mentioned as a candidate for the legislature from the Fourth District. This is the same Miss Brown who two years ago, sent a letter to Mayor Broening in which she termed his appointment of Mr. Arthur E. Briscoe as an assistant city solicitor, a "gross and contemptuous insult" to women of Baltimore. In her letter Miss Brown said to the Mayor: I write to ask you to strike her (Miss Emile A. Doetsch) name from the list of eligible candidates by City Service Commission in the City Solicitor, for appointment as Assistant City Solicitor. The Sun today announced your solicitation of a co-operative plan places in the Law Department which have been vacant for some time.

As a lawyer, Miss Groves has as much city appointments as white women or white She knew that if women are not recognize the paid jobs (two because the Mayor is the best men, but best women). Miss Brown knew the Briscoe appoints "suit" to white women. Miss Brown knew when she wrote this letter two years ago that Mr. Briscoe was the first Negro appointed to a paid position in the city administration for a quarter of a century. The other three colored men were appointed to non-paying jobs on the jail, zoning and employment boards. As a lawyer, Miss Brown also knew that Negroes have as much right to their proportion of city appointments as any other group, be they white women or white men. She knew that if white women and colored women are not recognized by appointment to the city's paid jobs (two white women are on the school board and one on the jail board) it is not because the Mayor has given their proportion to correction, but because he has given them to white men. Miss Brown knew all this, and then termed the Briscoe appointment a "contemptuous insult" to white women.

Miss Brown knew all this, and then termed the Briscoe appointment a "contemptuous insult" to white women. Politics are on a pretty low level when even white women took to such a subterfuge as making the color issue in order to advance themselves. All of this, however, is water which has passed under the bridge. Now comes Miss Brown aspiring to the legislature from the Fourth District, and seeking the support of the Republican orator, and seeking the okey from City Councilmen Walter S. Emerson, from McGuinn, and the approval of the City Republican Organization, and eventually the vote of thousands of colored citizens. The AFRO-AMERICAN hopes that such okey is forthcoming, for it is difficult to see how colored districts can view the candidacy of Miss Brown as a gesture towards friendliness or good will. Decoration Day The thin blue line of Civil War veterans, grows thinner still, will ride, not march, in the Decoration Day parade, Friday. Their places in the line of paraders are taken by veterans of the Spanish-American War and the more numerous and more youthful fighters who survive the World War. Times have changed since 1863. A country which once doubted whether freed slaves could and would fight and proposed to pay them lower wages in the Civil War, has changed its mind but not its heart on both sides. The calls of 1918 brought to volunteer and white officers and strict segregation. In addition, the World War added the idea of the labor battalion, and when possible, the white non-com. but none of these evidences of Jim Crow has quite reached the heartlessness of the War Department's recent move which announces separate trips abroad for Gold Star War Mothers and Wives whose loved ones lie in French cemeteries.

Hoover Pays Four Senators for Parker Votes Hoover Pays Four Senators for Parker Votes In the midst of the fight against the confirmation of Judge John J. Parker as an associate justice of the Supreme Court, President Hoover let it be known that Senators had to choose between his favor and the good will of Negro voters. In the President's words lurked sarcasm and in addition a veiled hint that THINGS would happen to those who failed to support the White House. THINGS happened Saturday. Senators Goldsborough (Rep. Md.) Hatfield (Rep. W.Va.) Allen (Rep. Ks.) and Walcott (Rep. Conn.) were of Mr. Hoover at his Rapidan River. We fishing camp on that day, running down from Washington after an early breakfast at the White House. Mr. Hoover fished for trout, but his Senatorial guests mindful of the stiffness and rheumatism that lurk in spring rainstorms, left Mr. Hoover to his fishing and sat around a camp fire to swap yarns, returning to town in the late afternoon instead of sampling the hard Hoover camp beds. Such is the Presidential favor that these pro-Parker Senators valued more than the good will of their colored constituents. Sad indeed should all anti-Parker Senators feel who will not have a chance to breakfast in the White House and spin yarns around the Presidential camp fires. Such exercise ought to add in immeasurably to a Senator's feeling of importance and well being. But, if colored voters' memories are good, it will detract from his official longevity.

The lynching of George Hughes and the destruction of the homes and business places of innocent Negroes in Sherman, Texas, is not anything new for the South. The part Governor Moody played in it ought to serve as a most convincing lesson to that "Uncle Tom" group of the race that was so ready and willing to see the lily-white Dixie Judge Parker confirmed for the supreme court, needing for a white client who had murdered in cold blood, one of his Negro farm hands, make the following statement: "Any nigger that will sass a white man ought to be killed," a so-called refined, intelligent and Christian family. In fact, his father was a prominent preacher. It is beyond me to imagine how any Negro that has sense enough to know right from wrong, can pull himself up to the place where he can honestly confide in a daughter. My grandmother survived slavery, and after attaining the age of fifty, she acquired the equivalent of a common school education. She taught me that I could never imagine a more realistic situation. In the South the cruel and brutal treatment the Negro suffered at the hands of the southern sheds.

Newspapers Praised for Aid in Fight Now Raging Among Seventh Day Adventists. To the Editor: Since I was thrown out of the Seventh-Day Adventist Conference (white) last November, I have organized a United Sabbath-Day Adventist Conference and have been to Kingston, Jamaica where I spent several weeks organizing churches and missions and have returned and organized in Brooklyn this week. I have forced the conference to take more Negro delegates than ever before, to California, where it will convene in the city of New York. The committee has been trying to get our church property, but so far we have been able to withstand the storm and this week an appeal, which they had made to withhold their books from examination was denied them by the Anglican church which is the highest court in New York State. Some time ago, the Supreme Court of New York State ordered the books investigated for theft, which were paid on the mortgage and so forth. Rather than do they appealed the case, Inasmuch as their books are going to be investigated we have won another moral victory. We have done this had it not been for the moral support given by the Negro newspapers throughout this country, for which I am very grateful. I wish them to know that this is not a one-man fight, but a fight to free the colorless students from the iron heels of the white underbelly.

The conference has been trying to get our church property, but so far we have been able to buy it, and this week we are able, which they had made to withhold their books from examination is denied them by the Appellate Court, which is the highest court in New York State. Some time ago the Supreme Court of New York State ordered the books investigated to see how much money our church had paid on the mortgage and so forth. Rather than do this they appealed the case. Inasmuch as their books are going to be investigated we have won an We could not have done this had it not been for the moral support given us by the Negro newspapers throughout this country, for which I am very grateful. I wish them to know that this is not a one-man fight, but a fight to free the colored artists from the iron heels of the white conference. New York. JAMES K. HUMPREY, Pres. United Sabbath-Day Adventist Conference. The AFRO-AMERICAN Finds No Difficulty in Securing Negroes to Man Any of its Departments. To the Editor: All Negro papers that do not carry an all-Negro staff should be boycotted by members of the Negro race. In the May 10th issue of the AFRO-AMERICAN, Mr. Henry F. Arnold mentions one of the leading Negro weeklies, that in its anniversary edition carried photos of its white workers, and had what employees. I agree with Mr. Arnold in stating that if this firm says it cannot find Negroes to do this work, it is a bare-faced liar. The twelve million Negroes of America should not hesitate in boycoting such a paper, and for the protection of the race, and that information. I am resenting Mr. Arnold to publish the name of the paper to which he referred. All Negro papers that do not carry an all Negro staff should be boycotted by members of the Negro race.

CO-OPERATION To the Editor: In all of our undertakings we must depend to a certain extent, on our fellow men to help us out of the rut occasionally—to smooth our paddling. When we jump into our boat to row up life's stream we will find it necessary at times, to stop along the shore and take one or more of our buoys, to navigate our paddling, and well find our ultimate success depends not upon the long pull of one, or the strong pull of another, but upon a moderate pull of all together. In other words, we must offer and invite teamwork. **HOWARD WALLAGE.** In all of our undertakings we must depend, to a certain extent, on our fellow men to help us out of the rut occasionally—to smooth our paths.

LEST WE FORGET Yea, that bloody strife is oer, Those mighty guns have ceased to roar, Our boys no longer give their lives That righteousness may still survive. No more does bursting shot and shell Make life seem as a virtual hell, To fighting men a seething mass Mid liquid fire and poison gas. And when at last the signal came That ended that destructive game, The loved ones of our fighting Yanks, Sent up a fervent prayer of thanks. The wounds of war may heal perhaps; But here's to our boys who answered "taps"; Who passed into eternity, The face toward the enemy. Now in our daily scheme of things Mid liquid fire and poison guns, Let's not forget our heroes brave Who sleep enshrined in soldiers' graves. SYLVESTER ROY WOODFORK. Washington, D.C. (Vet. A.E.F.) Racial Integrity Fears. A Costly Ride. Good and Bad Sports. Russian Negro Dolls. A Gloomy Pastor. RICHMOND WHITES still fighting to halt the flow of blood from concussions, we have asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review its recent decision upholding the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution. What Richmond whites are really asking is that the disregard of the Constitution of the United States and grant them the privilege of driving the Negro citizens off any land in the city which they wish. Such a procedure could operate to drive Negroes out of the city, that of the faces of the earth, if carried that jar. That human beings might carry it that far is not unbelievable. Good pious Christians in America have almost driven the Indians, first on their soil, off the face of this country. SPEAKING OF RACIAL INTEGRITY, what are Virginia white lawnmakers so frightened about? Does not the U.S. Constitution now grant them privilege to socialize with white women if they want to? Are they distrustful of their women? Like "Old Man River," they must "know somit" and don't say nut'in? Racial integrity, like prohibition, can't be legislated. If Virginia whites want it, they really have it. Strange enough most multures come from the far South where there were most laws against interracial mixture. TWELVE YEARS AGO Joseph Burrell, an old soldier at Camp Burrell, rode a ride in a car which did not belong to him. The net result of that ride has been eleven years served in prisons. Based on wage rates during the last twelve years, young Burrell, who was 18 when caught with the car, paid $160 per mile for that Governor Ritchie will pardon him next week. He still has many useful years ahead of him, and many men of his age have had more than he did when he took that ride in a stolen car. MOST MEN AND WOMEN like to be called good sports, when they are playing athletic or social games, but few of us bother about such reputations in the game of life. If a man or woman loses to a competitor, did not follow the custom and shake his or her opponent's hand, it would be considered poor sportsmanship. Mr. Justine Alexander, New York church worker, accepted the attentions of the Rev. J. W. Brown when that widowed wife mistreated him, but another woman found more jovial, and Mrs. Alexander carries the decision of her love game to court, asking for love balm. Would she have said that in a stolen car? In the good old college days, we have seen two youths, sleeping in the same room, jett over the rivalry they were fighting with and cement their friendship in congratulations, when the lucky swain won. But that is not the way of youth today. It is not the way of youth when they lose a fight in church, not the way in the lodge, nor the way of the man or woman who loses in the annual election. We are losing the spirit of good sportsmanship. A PROFESSOR in a Russian university objects to Russian children playing with the American horror movie of the mummy and "Uncle Tom" type. Russian children, says this professor, should have intelligent looking Negro dolls, that they may not be American idea of racial inferiority. Russia, under Soviet rule, is casting away every vestige of the old idea that some human beings are born with a rule that other human beings. Now her teachers realize that ideas bred into the tender minds of children are hard to erase, and are planning to coerce them to play. This is a good suggestion for Negro mothers. The kind and the spirit of the toys with which children play has a lot to do with the men and women they make. Included in practically every collection of dolls of white children in the Soviet Union or Negro rudroustob type. These dolls had simple and often idiotic faces or expressions, and white children imbued early in life their distinctive place in the world. Your child's toys should be selected with the same thought and carefulness that you select the college he or she is to attend. You should be likely to go more deeply into his or her character than the school. THE REV. W. W. WALKER, pastor of Madison Street Presbyterian Hospital Presbyterian Hospital nurses in a baccalaureate sermon that "jazz" is revolutionizing the Negro. The Rev. Mr. Walker might be pastor, for he sees "the spirit of reverence" as the "missing note" in the life of many young people today. Jazz, he says, has invaded the home, the church, and even married once upon a time there was a certain prophet called Lot, who told the people of certain cities called Sodom and Moramor, that they were too jazzy. The moderns of that day laughed at Lot, but history tells us what happened to those two cities, coming to the city, a certain statue warned the mighty Romans that they were jazzing it up a little too much. They laughed. But the time came when spiders built their webs over roads where Roman legions thundered by. Perhaps all is well with modern youth with their mothers sponsoring their twilight dances, the dawn carousels, their teachers' almsgiving him to do the "bum" and their church leaders glorifying fine clothes and Rolls-Royces, or perhaps the Rev. Mr. Walker is right. Who knows? Africans Say: "Africans have much in common with us as art and wisdom expressed in their proverbs show. It is time for us to get away from the notion that they are more affluent than we are. If more than one sense, we Americans are less civilized and more barbaric than they." C. J. BENDER. The heart is never satisfied. The Laughs Behind the News By RALPH MATTHEWS Two young women sued two old men for breach of promise last week and one got $20,000. Girls are following the chain store idea and putting love on a strictly "cash or marry" basis. Girls have a new way of parting with their lovers; they say, "Good-bye, I'll sue you later." Of course, paying out a flock of dollars is pretty hard to the pocketbook, but paying the dame would be lots harder on the nerves. It is funny, but true, that if a guy who is broke jilts a girl, she keeps it a dark secret, but if a girl with a lot of kate jilts her, she tells the world. A bobbed-haired bandit with dreamy orbs and a pair of fatted calves can dig more silver with a couple of salty turtles than a miner can with a steam shovel. If the jury happens to be old and baldheaded, she can start right out spending the money before the first witness is called to The old time father used to look up a young man's character to see if he came from a good family, but his daughter looks to see if he came from a good bank. The only interest the modern maid has in her suitor's family tree is how many dollars are dangling from the tins. One time a man only lost his sense over a woman, but nowadays he loses his dollars too. A man could court a girl for fifteen or twenty years before anybody thought he had any serious intentions, but now it's dangerous to tip your hat to a strange woman on the street without her thinking you want to marry her. A lot of jurymen are just sitting around waiting to run their hands in your pockets and pull out a handful of cash. They would give a jane and a boy. If she could find any use for the pants. Every time a man signs a love letter to a woman it is just like signing a check without the amount filled in. The man who says it with flowers has an even break of them fading before the case is called and he who says it on paper should use transparent ink. The gink who holds a 200-pound mama on his knee every night can't ask immunity on the ground that he did it in one of his weaker moments. The chap who writes love letters is the most versatile writer in the world. When he first pens the misheard read out loud in court it is comedy, when the jury brings in the verdict it is tragedy. They say love matches are made in heaven and every girl tries to get her share of the Golden Streets down here. Etiquette 1. What is the best acknowledgement society has to an introduction? 2.

Williston, for 25 years a beloved teacher at Howard Medical School) Caressed by death, his body sleeps. Peacefully in mortality's last abode, No garland sweet adorns his brow, Earthy skin, his heart. Eternal bedecks her own. But above the sun's golden tapestry Dwells his spirit in a vast domain. An immortal tribute, a living crown, Graces his brow, a glory earth, Winter's breath, a prince of fire. No greater tribute was ever worn. No greater tribute ever given. He lived the life. He lived the life. Durham, N.C. A. C. LANIER. English Word Often Misused Do not say. "Will you accept of my hospitality?" Omit, "of."

Chips From the Quarry The Proofreader Talks In the May issue of the Inland Printer there is an article relating the experiences of several European countries in which so-called spelling reform is now in full swing. The results as might have been foreseen have been disastrous. Starting out to "simplify" the spelling, this "authority" and that has taken a hand, each using a system of his own, so that now in the countries worst affected it is practically impossible to spell a word wrong; that is, some authority can be found for almost any sort of combination. The matter has gone furthest, the writer of the article says, in the Scandinavian countries, where it has come to the point that few persons can read understandingly more than one newspaper—the particular paper whose selections and changes in spelling and person has no less lent in with. Seemingly the "reform" has not taken a strong hold upon the higher class magazines and the publishers of textbooks, and they may yet be able to stem the crazes that have caused the case in this country a few years ago. Fortunately for the English-speaking people, spelling "reform", which was strongly advocated here and in England about thirty years ago, did not succeed. Really "reform" should be in the plural, for there were several more or less mutually contradictory systems competing for favor. At the time the craze was at its height, I was in the government service and I was a member of the confusion caused by the attempt of Roosevelt, then President, to "put the thing over." With his usual precipitacy he took up the matter and pushed it seriously, with hundreds of "reformed" words, he selected a list of a hundred and forty-odd which he ordered to be spelled, in all of the official writings and publications, according to his own choice among the The several "departments," under the cabinet officers, had small printing shops which, of course, followed the President's order. The office was done at the Government Printing Office, which is under control of Congress. That body refused to sanction the change. The result was great confusion and bewildering inconsistencies, not to mention trouble, expense and hard feeling. Luckily for us, Congress won, and after a few months, Rosevelt gave in. Within a few years the newspapers and magazines matter up, gradually slipped back to the standard spellings. At the present time only a few newspapers of the tabloid level cling partially to the "reform," a n'trangely enough one periodical. The extent of their persists in it, to a moderate extent. Likewise there are a few persons who, self-conscious in some cases, affect a few of the discredited forms "thru" and "tho" being most common. The authors of these writings are marred by these de-formities through inadvertence or force of habits formed during their impressionable years in school; for although few or none of the textbooks they read, the school-teachers did, thinking, no doubt, that it made them appear erudite.

GOVERNMENT, CHURCHES DO THE LYNCHING Difference Between Hoover and Cleveland, who Threatened South Unless it Stopped Mob Outbreaks. Negroes Lynched for Color not for Crimes Catholic and Monarchial Governments Free from Mobs. By KELLY MILLER Two Negroes were burned at the funeral pyre in Northern Texas within the space of a week. The mob was too impatient to await judicial determination of guilt in either instance. A mob may be defined as an infuriated crowd of men possessed of the devil. When Jesus drove the devil out of the maniac on the other side of Jordan, he plied the privileges of entering into a herd of swine which had the decency to rush over the preciice and drown themselves in the depth of the sea. The modern herd thus possessed wreaks vengeance on the people. The ghoulish process of burning the dead body of the victim for the sheer exhilaration of glutting the passions with hellish delight is the exclusive present for instituting excruciating cruelty. The savage roasts his victim alms in preparation for a cannibalistic feast, but the modern-day Christian present for instituting excruciating cruelty. The savage is the better sportsman. We too hastily congratulate ourselves that lynching has been brought to an end. True the number of recorded instances has gradually decreased, but the buds will sprout as long as the root remains. Race prejudice is the tap-root of lynching. We are not able to control its rancor. We have the advantage to denounce any particular locale. Similar outbreaks have occurred in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Colorado and Kansas. Most of our American states, North and South, should have been affected from the scariest letter "L" as a badge of their dishonor and shame. Can't Expect Respect for Religion. The governor of Texas sends forth his galant Texas Rangers whose whole army is palsied by race prejudice. President Hoover reads the grusome news with a sickened heart, a pulp of a regratified whiff of smoke from his consoling pipe, wipes his official hands in indignation as he passes the matter, and goes a-fishing. The Methodist Conference was sitting at Dallas a few miles away. By means of glass doors, columned smoke arising from frying human flesh, but not a wind escaped their hallowed lips. The rather, they spent their time excusing politician or gambling in Wall Street. How can we expect the people to have respect and reverence for the Christian religion? If this be an issue, we have two colleges and twenty-six Christian churches in Sherman, Texas; but not one man exhibited the courage either. We have to keep carefully in mind that their culprits were burned, not for crime but for race. No one knows or ever will know whether they were pubbly drunk. The evidence has been burned. The Texas atrocities taint the honor of the nation. If the United States justifies withholding recognition from a nation that has disputed debt, the Soviet government might despitefully retort: "We do not care for association with a nation which burns human beings because of responsibility lies between the government and the Christian Church. The President is the keeper of the honor of the nation because the Kiev government has its conscience. The mere assertion is constitutional impotency will not suffice. It is said that Grover Cleveland caused Southernner "the White House and admonished him that if the offending states could not find a remedy for lynching, he would. No constructive purpose could ever be accomplished by denying the Christian Church, if it were so minded, could put a speed end to the evil outbreak of race prejudice by the burden of hearts." Why do such atrocities never occur in a monarchical government, nor in a Catholic country? It simply cannot not happen in Brazil. Under Moldova it would happen in America that it would maintain supremacy among the nations of mankind. Suspended material achievements furnish a poor offset for moral objection. In Sackcloth and Ashes • Under the old dispensation whichacknowledges collective responsibility, civil deeds, the guilty city or community repented itself in sackcloth and ashes, and gave itself over to a season of fasting and prayer. • It is the greatest denominations join in a request to the Christian forces of America to memorialize President Hoover to proclaim a day of national contrition and confession of the atrocities and the burden of the thirst of blood guiltness and its conscience rectified. Such a united prayer would be self-answered.

Secretary in Capital Finds Negro Vote Swayed 11 Congressmen. JOB NOT FINISHED Voters Advised to Act in Next Elections. NEW YORK—Returned from a speaking tour, which included visits to Senators and political leaders in Washington, Walter White, Acting Secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., said: "Both from the way in which the Senators in Washington received me as a representative of the N.A.A.C.P. and from with I learned in conversation with the best informed newspaper correspondents. I can say that the Negro's star, politically, and on a national scale, is in the ascendent. One well informed newspaper correspondent with whom I carefully went over the situation, I felt, had been affected in their vote on Judge Parker's nomination, by their Negro constituents. "Now a word or warning to colored people is coming comes direct from Washington. The colored citizens of America have staged a major demonstration. But the job and thoroughly has not ended until some of those Senators who ended until some of their constitents and voted on Judge Parker have been deceived defensively when they come up for rejection. "Let the colored voters throughout the country make a note of how their Senators voted on them and ever before the H.A.A.C.P.'s memory in the Parker case reached back ten years to a political speech Judge Parker has given to them. The H.A.A.C.P.'s memory Judge Parker was defeated. Let the memory of colored voters keen give the vote of their Senators until each Senator comes up for rejection. Then "It all happens forgets, let him ask the N.A.A.C.P. The N.A.A.C.P.'s memory kept. They are available to anyone who inquires. Remember, let us finish the list of excuses we have throughout the United States. That is one of the sure ways to end child abuse. Grow discrimination of all kinds." PERSONALS MRS.

W. Becton. Anyone can get one now, for the first 500 have been more than paid for. It is said that Becton received as much as $10 a-piece for some of them, via consecration. The very praise they inflict about it was the kind what kind of a key he was going to receive until it arrived at the home of each person through the mails, and they certainly were NOT on display before distribution. Guess that is why so many felt for the very clever idea. The key comes in the form of what could be termed a fortune telling puzzle, because it contains data very similar to that passed out at various places of amusement via the slot machine for a Silver Buffalo. Becton has given "Unity" one better and then some. "He who tokes a Gospel Feast Key will be blessed throughout the remainder of his days expected to believe that. The key is a single maze cardboard folder, folded three times and enclosed in an envelope upon which is printed a cross and a padlock key. The sample token is then nested, worried troubled, or wronged. The Grand Final: Thursday Elder Becton announced one night last week that he; Gospel Feast Act will close at Salem M. B. Church, and will be the talk of the Big City. As for "Putting on the Ritz," fifteen very charming women dressed to death will act as hostesses on that great night. "Light baby grand plans will be used. One of them said to belong to the Gospel Feast Party is valued at $1000 and furnishes much music wherever they go. The church of New York's local talent will be presented and how! Each invitation will be blessed and he desires that all will keep them as souvenirs. When the time is out, Out. Thursday, it will be G. Wilson Becton in person, and everyone is wondering what new style he's going to bring out. Asked for "Vacation Money" Lola Beck Becton told the folks that he is entitled to a much-needed rest and must have the "wherewith" with which to set it. He got plenty according to Rev. Douglas of Rush Memorial they are not expecting him. M. C. Davies. Becton's general manager, claims that more than 79 of the countries in the world need for the services of the Gospel Faste Party. But at present Becton is too worn out from whistling and clapping, and fancy stenking, to ever think about any more work with his skin. Bear Skin Cont not in Pawn With the temperature at 90 degrees in the shade, or under the moonlight, Becton can be in his bear skin cont every night. "Now anht that sticky?" Like Ex-Prexy Coouldie Becton told the congregation Sunday, "I don't think they have not seen him crack the first smile since he's been there." "Well," said Becton. "I haven't seen anything to smile about. But just you wait until Thursday to go doing that for you, because my better half is going to sing as well as to you, my favorite one." Let us add the world's greatest comedians never smile about the funniest thing that has ever happened, and it might be a feather in the hair. Will Be Honored at Banquet Monday evening, June 2, a banquet will be given in honor of Dr. and Mrs. Becton and the Gospel Feast Party in the lecture room of Salem M. E. Church, and the night beverages and tea the honored guests will first lay down a cold dollar. Todoloo, God's Chillin'! Next Sunday night, the Becton act will say todoloo, and the elder himself will leave us with what sweet thing, in which sweet thing? "Raise you right hands and say, 'Amen!' I mean, plain ole cornbread AINT!" "And you had betta stop you buckin and a-rare!" and man other spiritual expression," and his whisky always be remembered by his admirers. Five thousand persons crowded Salem Church Tuesday night, May 27 to hear Becton say his autos are ad by a Cleveland millionaire and his fur coat is the gift of an Alabama The evangelist in announcing admission would be charged for his final dress jamboree.

JAMES BROWN WANTED Mrs. Susan Brown of 618 Lombard Street, Wilmington, Del., would like to hear from her nephew, James. James was playing with Sandy Burns's show. It has been eleven years since she has seen him and anyone knowing where he can be located should immediately communicate with Mrs. Robeson Would Avoid Kissing Scenes in Othello in America Lovemaking with White Actress Would Not Go in America, Actor Thinks. LONDON.—The lovemaking scenes between Othello and Desdemona as portrayed by Paul Robeson and Miss Peggy Ashcroft, white, in Shakespeare's Othello which opened here last week would have to be changed if the play were brought to the United States. Robeson admitted that he would alter the role of the plans of Jed White, an American producer, who plans to bring the play to Broadway, are completed. North to war, the rites for which I love him are denied me, and I a heavy interim, shall support by his dear absence. Let me go with him." Would Not Play Role Robeson admitted that no amount of money could induce him to play the role in some parts of the United States. When he appeared in "All God's Chillin'," by Eugene O'Neill, an outlaw when his war was opposee Mary Blair, a white actress. No such objection arose in London. BOJANGLES GRANTED PILL IN $4,500 SUIT Must Kiss White Girl During the play, Robeson and Miss Aschroff kiss and embrace many, many times. There are not more ineffective gestures as one might oppose, but are done with all the fervor that Shakespeare intended that a fry Moor from the sunny and romantic shoes of Venice should possess. Imagine if you can, the cries of righteous indignation that would arise from an audience composed of Cole Blease, Tom Hefflin and their like, when Robeson, clad in flowing robes of the Moor strides across the stage and seizes the trembling blonde actress in his massive brown arms and holds her to his breast as she looks coyly up into his eyes, her own radiating stage love and devotion as she says with quivering lips: "The heavens forbid but that our love shall increase even as our days do. And Robeson, in his rich resonant voice, replies: "Amen to that sweet powers! I cannot speak enough of this content; it stops me here, it is too much of joy And this (kissing her) and this (kissing her again) be the greatest discords that our hearts shall make." It Cannot Be And from the gallery comes the expression of amazement as the marriage license clerks of Old Virginia nearly drop their microscopes which they detect one per cent of New York blood. "Surely," they gasp, "this thing cannot be. Shakespeare was a fool and ought to be lynched for writing such reticent. Before their cries die away, Desdemona again enters and pleads with the lords of the Kingdom to let her accompany her husband on his journey in this wise: "And I did love the Moor to live with her, to light violence and scorn of fortunes, my trumpet to the world that my heart's subdued, even to the very quality of my Lord. "I saw Othello's visage in his mind and to his honors and his valiant wife, I saw the world that, dear lords, should I be left behind, a moth of peace, while he go forth to war, the rites for which I love him are denied me, and I a heavy interim, shall support by his dear absence. Let me go with him." Would Not Play Role Robeson admitted that no amount of money could induce him to play the role in some parts of the United States. When he appeared in "All God's Church," he Engine O'Neill, an outcry arose when he was cast opposite Mary Blair, a white actress. No such objection arose in London. BOJANGLES GRANTED BILL IN $4,500 SUIT BOJANGLES GRANTED BILL IN $4,500 SUIT Dancer Answers Amended Suit of Theatrical Association for Benefit Money NEW YORK. (Special) — A motion of the New Yorkers has been granted Bill (Bojangles) Robinson, tap dancer, through his attorney, in an accounting suit, brought against him by the Florence Mills Theatrical The original complaint, since amended, was that Robinson, as manager and agent, collected the receipts from a benefit performance conducted by the association in Chili May 1928. The dancer was sued for $4,500, the amount he is alleged to have withheld. The amended complaint asks for an accounting and a restraining order to prevent Robinson from any of the money allegedly received. Money received from the benefit, Robinson said, was deposited in a bank long ago. He also stated that he had offered to turn over a certified copy of the receipt to him, named by all of the association.

ROWS **Drawn** Scenes like that above are enacted even though P. Robeson, American actor, Billy Ashcroft, white English actress, In Othello, which received last week on the London stage. A staff artist's conception of one of the scenes is mild compared to many in which Robeson makes love to the co-star, kissed by many times. Robeson admitted in an interview that the scenes would have to be deleted when the play is brought to America. One-Legged Hofer Has Made Money of His Misfortune NEW YORK, (ANP)—They'll never give a benfit for "Peg-Leg" Bates! Of all the stars of the theatrical filament, here is one who stands alone, unique in that he can capitalize a misfortune which has stopped him a brave man. On a stump leg, cut off just below the knee, this young man is just about the nifftest dancer on the stage. Using an ordinary peg leg, braced well. Bates executes steps which would shame him of dancing; nothing phony in his work, he doesn't use the peg leg for a support, he actually dances with it. Charlestons, taps the "snake-hips" and everything any other fellow does and some others Aside from being a wonderful dancer, Mr. Bates a meticulous, witty, and charming singer, after the show, he drives away from the stage door in a nifty Marmon lounge, chauffered by the inner circle, and indiscapcased as Bates, not quite as thrifty. Haled into the Western police court on charges of his wife, Mrs. Mary Brooks, 606 W. Lee Street, of failing to contribute any funds toward her support, Luther Brooks, 60, 615 Wayne Street, placed guilty to the accusations of his wife and agreed to pay the dollars weekly. Brooks went on record as being the oldest man to be charged with non-support during the fiscal year. Other men who were arrested and charged with maintaining their offspring were Nelson Miller, 2318 Gullfowl Avenue; Oscar Sneed, 556 Mosher Street; Joseph Henry, 914 Sterling Street; Leander Presbury, 29 S.

The boy's wound was cauterized at the Mercy Hos- Things You Wouldn't Have Bothered About. THEY TELL ME that the reason the swellegent restaurants won't put watermelons on the menu during the torrid months in that they are afraid the tables would be filled with watermelons of the aqua fruit only ten cents a throw so that real hungry patrons can eat a meal that might buck can't find a table to sit at and be forced to go elsewhere. And the reason feed tea costs more than Java is that it takes more sugar to sweeten the chilled orange peeko. That barber shops are suffering such an extent they are reducing the cost of ladies' hair bobbing to that charged their hair in skin, skin tresses.

But before he left he had invested a part of his modest savings in a national organization, which like most of its kind had wonderful prospects for opment, if you were a firm, or job which had only the ghost of a future attached to it, but in his breast there burned a hope of greater success in the company, which he was a part.

The next train for home found him a passenger. an airplant would not have been fast enough, could he have afforded it.

MOVIE GOSSIP By HARRY LEVETTE (For the Associated Negro Press) LOS ANGELES. Cal.—The motion picture industry is truly the world's greatest business and bids fair to continue so. There is always something new to be learned every time an actor is so fortunate as to get within the well-guarded walls of a studio. The actnig is after all only an integral part of the collosal industry, for if one keeps his eyes and mind open, he will realize there are about fifty other people necessary for every actor who plays an indispensable part. The finest modelers, sculptors, painters, artists, tailors, seams, treasers, electricians, landscape gardeners, cabineters, cabinet-makers, and many other or of the world's artisans are busy day and night within the walls of each studio. This of course, includes the finest photographers and developers that can be secured. Colored actors should shove all others, learn all they can about the business. In course of training, the occupation in the technical departments will be open to colored, but they must be prepared to be pretty penny, talented. Little former Chicago girl, had great ambitions while attending the prestigious art school. Her ambition took another turn after leaving school; she now writes about the theatre instead and bids fair to become one of the country's most talented.

"Hallelujah" Could Have Been Filmed Right in Baltimore Similarity Between Deep South and Monumental City Revealed by Regent Film. By RALPH MATTHEWS With the possible exception of the cotton picking scenes, "Hallelujah," the motion picture version of life in the deep South, which graces the screen at the Regent Theatre this week, might have been filmed right in Baltimore. The audience at the Regent Monday night, which packed the house to capacity, laughed loud and long just like a person viewing himself in one of those trick mirrors he finds in the steepeel room, although that the house itself, although it is exaggerated, and he can't help laughing at himself. That's the way Monday night's audience took "Hallelujah." "Hallelujah" was always a sort of mystery to me. I purposely missed the Broadway premier and the concurrent opening of the show. I didn't think I'd like it. I dodged it in Brooklyn, in Philadelphia and in Washington for the same reason, but finally, after thought it had been released, the store-room and my record was clear but into the darn thing here in Baltimore. Merely the Truth It was a mystery to me what the darker brother found objectionable to raise a howl about. After seeing it, I think Mr. Vidor was very kind, for at best he merely portrays the truth. Zeke, the traveling evangelist, was, if anything, an improvement over the swallow-tailed jackals who inhabit the storefront gospel empirions along Druid Hill and Pennsylvania Avenue, for, at least, he seemed to split his verbs only on purpose and had some idea of continuity in his discourse, which was more than we can say of the average scripture interpreter in the Monumental City. Singing Excellent And surely no dissenting voice could be raised against the singing. The voices were better trained than the average choir of the unisonable band, the mass singe- far superior to the spontaneous outbursts of our heat curbstone tenors and unacmeed sopranos who worship here of a Sunday morning. Bantisms Here I have heard it said that King Vidor burlesked the Negro race. I think the accusers owe him an apology. The scene of the great battle in the 1860s did not the roof of our own swimming pool in Drudl Park cave in, breaking a half dozen sanctified necks as they watched certain Black Billy Sundreep the heads of his repentant sinners in the water. Bishop Grace In the supposedly, highly enlightened metropolis of Washington, I saw less a personage than the Grace, dobbing with the newborn waters of the waters of a swamp so vile that the city sanitation commission forced him to discontinue Lord's work for fear of sending the heaven-bound people to a pre-eminent home. Ministers' Amours Chick, the vivacious little girl of the dance halls, is typical of the lik that infest the McCullough Street and many the McCullough Street pupil, failing for their wiles even as Zeke did, although the local sky pilots are much more dexterous, keeping their amorous escapades hid from the segregations than the torturous Zeke. Daddy Gray A month before "Halleluja" was released, Daddy Gray, the ball-headed old chap with the gray hat, told me the life of me. I did not see him. The morning after the premier I saw him strutting down Seventh Avenue in a high silk hat, he radiated pride as he crested a smile, think that anyone could miss his one big night. I could not understand how anyone in New York could miss seeing him make his debut in pictures. I don't think any more of the older than I did in the commonplace place much like everyday Baltimore life, with the exception of the cotton scenes, and from the actions of Monday night's audience, a sneaking suspicion that they have of that same cotton seed in their hair. Evanti Wins Plaudits of Italians NEW YORK. (ANP)—Correspondence from Italy indicates that the favor of Mme. Lillian Evanti, coloratura soprano, of Washington, among Italian music lovers has in no diminished and that as a result of her most recent concert in Milan, the crises are raptuous in their praise of her. Singing in the conservatory at Milan one critic described the audience as "large and distinquent in her voice as a result of nature." The critic asserted that she gave "to art an aristocratic voice, distinguished by rare culture."

JOLLEY (Reprinted from last year's City Edition) HELLO, OUT THERE— Digital Twisters and Tube Repliers We are sending this broadcast to you direct from the New Catonsville Country Club, located in Baltimore County. To make that more accessible across from the Greenwood Electric Park. Now just listen to the strains of music produced by the Catonsville Club Orchestra. It is just hot to death; it should be here. It is the opening night, and the people, oh, the people! Where they ever came from is a mystery to me. The club house, the lawn, are filled with people, and the road with automobiles. It is a bird's-eye picture of the place, let's start now. The club house is situated in the center of a 4-acre plot with many trees shading it. There are accommodations twenty tables with large rainbow colored umbrellas. In the northwestern part of the lawn, there are two clay tennis courts. In the front lawn, there are fifteen oak trees with white-washed bases. What a beautiful en Starting in the club house, there is a small veranda; then there are two private rooms and a reception to accommodate three hundred persons. This is said to be an increase over the maximum of one hundred and fifty last year. Yes, there has been an increase. You can see the four rooms. Up the stairs there are four rooms, a rest room for women and shower bath. In fact, every thing in the place is up to the standard in modern times. This place, if you could only see it, has a color scheme of green and white. The exterior paint is green, the interior is white and the tables are green, with cloths of white having a large, green border. The curtains are a mixture. When the room is dark, the crystal lights in the main dining room all tend to make the place charming. The officers of this up-to-date club are-J. C. Bailey, president; D. A. Dickson, treasurer; H. Hutton, secretary. Great credit is due, not only for the beautiful place, but for securing Miss Billie Griffin, of New York, and Miss Irene Babins, of New York, the stellar hostesses and hostesses. Now, the thing to do is to view this place for yourself. Why not grab a little street car, call the Winters Avenue. To get here from New York, Philadelphia, Atlantic City, first come to Baltimore, then find Edmondson Avenue, keep west on that road to convince, turn right two blocks to the club. To reach Jaree from Washington, come to Monroe Street, left turn on Monroe to Edmondson Avenue, to Winters Avenue. Good night, until next week.

ROGERS THE BASUTOS of South of being the only dar to defeat a British ar credit is due to Moshesh, their erals and shrewdest statesmen HE BASUTOS of South Africa enjoy the reputation of being the only dark-skinned people in the world to defeat a British army and remain unbeaten. The credit is due to Mosheh, their king, one of the ablest generals and shrewdest statesmen of all time. After defeating one of England's best generals on the field, he turned, and almost in the same breath outwitted him in intelligence in an instance that has since become famous. Whether in war or in diplomacy Mosheh was more than a match for any combination of his opponents, white or black. He played his white opponents one against the other and defeated them. As to the black allies of the white men, he ate them up as a tiger would a cat. No member of the darker races in their struggle for survival against the white has covered himself with greater cloak. he had decided that he was going to keep his word only so far as his own interests could be served. This black monarch sailed it was to be a captain of wits and British were fighting each other in supremacy. but at bottom both being white men, were opposed to him, and when it served their purpose would unite against him. In fact, at the signing of the treaty Mosheh had seemed more amused than anything else at the antics of Sir Harry Smith, who snored one minute and wept the next. This was the governor's way of illustrating to the Basutos how ill prepared he was made or not made. The snoring signified the sleep of peace, the weeping, the loss of Born about 1700, the son of a captain in a insignificant tribe, Moshesh at an early age showed his genius as a master of men. At that time Zulu king and one of the greatest conquerors the world has ever seen, was devastating South Africa. Moshesh's tribe fled to the mountains where other fugitives joined them. Moshesh received them hospitably, and from the wreck of the petty nations, built up the powerful Basuote nation. Mosheland is very mountainous and called the Switzerland of South Africa. Its climate and air are unexcelled; and the land is fertile, and especially fine for grain, and the raising of horses and cattle. Selecting a broad, flat table land, known as Thaba Bosiog. 5000 feet above sea-level, Moshesh established his capital there, and strengthened that height down on his neighbors like a great brown of the feudal ages. Under him were a rich, healthy and contented people. Not even the Zulus excelled him. In physical life warlike daring. As to horsemanship they would gallop down steep inclines on their sure-footed ponies or pick their way through the grass without saddle o. bridle. What the Indian was to North America, that is the Basto to South Africa. Attacked by the Boers But Mosheh was not to enjoy his splendid isolation for long. In 1836, he was sent to the British, began their great trek of 1836, and coming into territory that belonged to him or his subject tribes. Founded in the State Tree. River Colony. As to the real ownership, the Boers gave little or no thought to that. They were not Christians and were only blackmen and heathen? Besides that, they not riffes and artillery and Negroes had only spears? So unless, the Boers were soon to the might of the African senate, a househouse into their plains he would raid their farms and drive off their cattle to increase his own herds. For six years he kept this up with success, for success he kept it up with him. Even artillery proved useless against the rocks he would send thundering down on their heads. Lucky it was for him he had built his home on that dizzy height. The British found it to their interest, with him, and the Boers, coming soon after under the protection of England also had the governor of Cape Colony, Sir Harry Smith, to arrange a treaty with them, placed his mark. But in doing so.

The king, one of the ablest geno of all time. he had decided that he was going to keep his word only so far as his own interests could be served. The man in the court saw that it was to be a three-cornered battle of wits. Beers and British were fighting each other for supremacy, but it was both being who was opposed to him, and when it served their purpose would unite against him. In fact, at the signing of the treaty, Moshesh had seemed more amused than anything else on the part of the king, who snored one minute and wept the next. This was the governor's way of illustrating to the Basutos what would happen if the treaty was made or not. He snored it, defined the sleep of peace, the weeping, the loss of loved ones in war. Contact with the white man had also taught Mosheh a very valuable lesson. He learns the importance of the white man's politics. To beat an enemy it is sometimes necessary to use his own tactics. Mosheh decided to have religion too, unlike the white man's. To beat a white friend of his 6000 head of cattle to bring him a missionary. Besides, he reasoned that once his people had been freed, Boers and British could not so easily justify their conduct against him. The missionaries came, and he gave them a settlement at the people to help them to follow their teachings, and seeing the ravages that alcohol had wrought among the other inhabitants of it was brought into his country. Of course, after their warm welcome, the missionaries published the most glowing reports about him and his people, considerably strengthening his presence, good news. This naturally made the Boers angry against the missionaries, and later led to their destroying one or two of their missions. This, of course, made the missionaries all the more partial to Mosheh and his people. Mosheh, a Pagan But as to religion, Mosheh, himself, although he used to quote Bible texts as frequently as any of those who were hungering for his land, remained a pagan. He was a Christian, a life, his venero or Christianity quite left him. His aim through all was to preserve the integrity of his kingdom and he felt that the means justified the end. To strengthen his position the crafty black king did not select missionaries from one white nation but from three, English, French and Knowing that the white men, treaty or no treaty, meant to oust him sooner than later, he meant to beat them at their game. Soon after Sir Harry Smith had left, Mosheh began his hostilities against the Boers, taking care first to keep them from region by intriguing with tribes near them. One Zuluf chief was planning a raid into British territory and he sent him aid. In the raids that followed, Mosheh took 10,000 cattle, cattle of the British and Boers uniting, sent an expedition against him, headed by Major Warden. Attacking one of the Basuto chiefs, named Mollisata, the tribes were defeated. The battle was fought on an extensive flat-topped mountain, edged with perpendicular rocks. The Basuto, having killed a great number of frogs, drove the tribe on the brink of destruction. There a desperate struggle took place, the assegai, the o Much ACID *Milk of Magnesis prescribed by physicians for 50 years in correcting excess acids. 25c and 800 a bottle—any "Milk of Magnesia" has been the U.

Moshesh, though flushed with victory, was cool-headed A Master of Strategy After this victory, Mosheh, who had been keeping the bulk of his warriors in cheek, unleashed them and the farms and floods of the Boers were harried with greater vigor than ever. At last, General Sir George Cattcart, governor of Colony Cohort, with an army of 3,000 picked white regulars wilt. artillery, and a large body of natives started for Bastion, and armed and armed tribes, hostile to Mosheh, among the number being Sikonya, chief of the Batokuas and bitterest foe of Mosheh. Arriving on the border of Bastionland, General Sir Mosheh, sent a despatch to Mosheh, reproaching him for alleged lawlessness and thefts, and ordering the immediate handing over of 10,000 head of cattle. Mosheh, whose quarrel was rather with the Boers, sent a most pacific repile 3,000 head of cattle. As to the rest, together for time to get them together. General Cathet, with an expensive and highly trained army in the field, would listen to no delay and managed. Beowulf, he saw an enormous herd of cattle feeding on the mountain side, and dividing his force into three parts, he sent one to round them up in his army, and that led to the heights. Little did he realize that the cattle there tended by women and a few old men, was a trap that the shrew Moshesh had set for the British soldiers in coming into Basutoland had regarded it as something of a lark. General Cathet took no pains to learn their real strength. But Moshesh, 10.0 of the finest horsemen on earth. It is *c*'s same black horsemen that Poulney Bigewel wrote a *really* years later: "The Basuto, before he enters the ranks, is a better horseman than the European jockey after three years of drilling for, as a recruit, he is already an accomplished horseman, an excellent markman, and familiar with *c*'s use of a scout." (White Men's Air The British Trapped General Cathcart, as was said, sent one of his divisions after the cattle on the nill. The soldiers rounded up 4,000 of them and were driving them down the mountain to the narrow pass of 4000 Bassat, then moving to spring from nohere, threw themselves at the enemy. In the confusion that followed the British soldiers, inextricably returned to the attack and kept up until after night, moving to Cathcart, leaving Mossesh of the field. He left his dead and wounded where they fell, and did not stop until he had put the mixed with the cattle, proved an easy mark for the Basuto spears. Abandoning the cattle, the soldiers The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, May 31, 1930 fled down the mountains until they caught up with General Cathcart, who was also being hard pressed. Clouds of Basato calvary now swept down on the British, and were at Caledon River between himself and the foe. Mosheh, though flushed with victory, was cool-headed enough to weigh its results. He knew only too well that the Great White Queen bay only by discharges of canisters from the artillery. At the height of the battle there was a errific thunderstorm which caused a jull in the fighting, but no sooner was it over than someone possessed more greater treasures than be; that she would never rest until he was beaten. It was then he did something that proved he was a master diplomat. He sent General Cathcart the stranger leer a victor has ever sent the foe. Shrewd Move This letter is worthy of reproduction here: Midnight, Dec. 20, 1852. "Your Excellency: This day you have fought against my people and taken munc cattle. As the object for which you have come is to have compassion for Been so satisfied with what you have taken, ...entreat peace from you. You have chastised. Let it be enough I pray you, and let me no longer be considered an enemy of the Queen. I will try all to make my people in order in the future. "Your numble servant, Moshesh." As was to be expected, General Catharch received this letter most gratefully. "It miraculously gave him a loop-hole. He was so deceived that, too, had been deceived in the strength of the enemy," says Thea in his "History of South Africa." and he dreads a war with a tribe, and he dreads a war with armed and with such strong natural fortresses. In his opinion, there was nothing to be gained by such a war that compelled us its most urgent defence, almost himself of the opening from a grave difficulty which Moshesh's letter afforded. "It gave him the privilege of using the language of a conqueror and in such language he declared he satisfied with the number of cattle." How much cattle had the general captured? But 156 plus 3,000 Moshesh had given him. However, that the letter was for the general's consumption alone. No sooner was his back turned than Moshesh sent courors to all the chiefs, announcing a great black tory ove, the so-called Great Cattart, that General Cattart's hasty departure seemed all the more to justify. Moshesh became a greater figure than ever, for as may be imagined the real: truth was not long out. But the chiefs, says the career of Moshesh in South Africa, was, in its way, almost as brilliant as that of Napoleon after the battle of Austerlitz. His letters to the general, broadcast in Europe by him, the missionaries, his great favor, lay over of peace. Public op- MOSHESH ion in Europe was decidedly in his favor. Annihilates a Tribe With the British soldiers back in Cape Town, Moshesh's first move was to attack his old enemy, Skionyla, surprising him in his stronghold. Moshesh's right of attack utterly routed him, and sent him flying for refuge on British soil. As a tribe Skionyla's people ceased to exist. Stronger than ever, Moshesh once made him attacks on the Boers. Some writers say that this was rather the act of his impetuous son's chief of whom was Mapuba. At this time also the British withdrew from Moshesh's freedom. Boers their freedom. Basutus and Boers were left to fight it out among themselves. The Boers now invaded Basutoland but the frowning precipices of the Tahir Eagle bridge were not so far from the palms that led to the euryph of the black eagle were well-ortained and the garrison was provided with food and water for a long siege. They tried to take the mountain forrest storm, but were beaten back each time. At last Mosheh sent a raiding-party beetle to the sheep, their homes, and returning with a vast herd of cattle. Abandoning the siege, the Boers returned War with Boers For the next seven years he gave the Boers no peace, and again they returned. After ten months of war, Moshesh sued for peace with the Boers and strengthened his position. Again war broke out, and for five years it went on, both sides fighting almost to the point of external attack by the Boers, Senekal and Wepener, were killed in an unsuccessful attack on Thaba Bosigio I. It is important to note that it was these same Boers who, in 1885, British at Majuba Hill and won their independence. Furutner, that Moshesh had to rely mostly on spears and gunpowder of his own making, which was much inferior to that imported by the Boers. Moshesh was now past 80 and weakened with the years. But he was determined that the Boers should not get his territory. It was then he played one of his master-strokes, and the Boers accepted of that foe less likely to pillage him directly—the British. This was made comparatively easy by the aid of his friends, the misguided and the unregal, with which he was held in England. He was on his deathbed but he had the satisfaction of knowing that at the last moment he was clutching the clutches of the enemy that they had been fighting more than 20 years. Most of the historians speak in the highest terms of him. The real hero of the war was a very high order as a military strategist, a diplomatist, an organizer of society, and a ruler of men. All who submitted to him were the most important, and what tribe they belonged, and as much assistance as possible was given to those who needed it. . . .

Thus a new community was forming under Moses, the leader of the people in South Africa since the coming of the white man."

With trifling modifications of color and education he would have been welcomed in diplomatic circles as an advanced schoolmistress of the BKtian." Sir Godfrey Lagden: "It is impossible to recall the story of his life without admiration for the untiring energy of the man; she simmed tongues to tongues, association, continuing for supremacy with other tribes and for life alternately with Dutch settlers or British, yet all while staggering under the intrigues of foreign and foreign and perpetually by envoys from all parts, and correspondence hard for his unmuted mind to grasp the meaning of . . .

In diplomacy The Rise and Fall of Concrete A THRILLING TWO-PART STORY OF A CHAMPION WHO WAS "TOO GOOD" I've seen 'em come and go, boy," declared Tod Wright enthusiastically, "and I'm tellin' you I got the next world's champ. Just look at him! Ain't he the classiest baby you're seen since Mike Gibbons first rubbed his feet in the rosin!" By SYLVAN DROWN INSTALLMENT 1 Tod Wright's companion, Hogan, a pug who had seen his best days, agreed with his boss. And there continued the competition, judge Willie Burns' ability than this same Hogan. Many a punch he had taken from the clever Burns, and that made him feel in the pit of his andenom; a feeling which he had never been able to understand, and never would. The subject of their conversation joined them. He was tall, well propped, and he was a man of great competence. He could hit with the best of them; his record testified to that for he had fourteen knockouts to his credit. In over twenty-five bouts he had fourteen knockouts in his career. One more fight separated him from his goal. the battle with Cap Nelson for the middleweight championship of the world. That was Willie Burns. He was a man of great determination, "just done ten minutes with the bag. Did you get me a sparring partner?" AFRAID OF HIM The manager's brow wrinkled. "Nope, it's the same old story. Can't get a good boy to box you. Your reputation is bad. The boss wary. They say when you you're not punching with your left, you're don't it with your right." Burns again grimmed. "Old Hogan can't give me a workout. He's slower than you. The old timer, get a guy that can take 'em. I can shoot 'em in. You—" The fighter grabbed his manager and yelled. "Look!" Wright did just that. That what had drawn Burns's attention was a Negro, neither short nor tall, with long arms and a thick neck, standing in the doorway of the Garden Athletic Club's gymnasium; his eyes being bulging at a mouth wide. He was watching, half apologetically, a couple of the boys pummelling each other. Realizing that he was being scrutinized, he backed away as Wright and Burns approached him. "Hold on a minute," said Burns, "What can we do for you?" "Nothin'," answered the Negro. "Nothin' at all, sir." "How'd you like to put the gloves on?" "Yes sir." "Wait a moment," butted in. "Have you ever boxed?" "North Carolina, sir.", "Much?" "No, sir. Just once in a while." "Who would not remember when he had met a Negro so extraordinarily polite." "All right," he conceded, "box my friend here and earn five bucks for you, sir." "Yes, sir," was all the colored boy answered. "That's a relief," muttered Wright, when the Negro had disappeared in the locker room to change clothes, and of a workout today, Willie, anyway. Stripped to his waist line, Concrete Brown, for that was the dark one's name, entered the ring. He and the physician, who was Burke, his teeth glistened as he paired off against Burns. "Go easy with him" were Wright's orders to Burns. CONCRETE TOO FAST Burns w:kled confidently to Concrete's corner. He swung at Concrete's nose, but that gentleman's nose wasn't there, and neither was he. Instead Burns was not there, behind Burns, as Burns turned. Concrete smashed him hard on his nose, making it bleed. From then on. Concrete demonstrated the best prospect of etiquette. The astonished Burns, who was considered the best prospect for the middleweight crown, was now. backing the ring, under to be blows off the ground, hitting him from conceivable angle. The bell was a blessing to him. The other boxers, trainers, managers, and hangers on in general to the ring, were hit to the ring good humoredly. They had expected him to kiss the canvas whenever Burns desired him to do so. Burns would give the prettiest exhibition a man could give. One minute after the bell had rung for the second round. Willie Burns, in stretched out. Over him stood Wright: hustled the black man into his office, after seeing to it that the stricken Willie was properly attened. When they emerged, the Negro had been signed to a contract. Wright was too clever a manager to let a good thing disappear. The gentleman told Wright his tailor could saw a button. For Wright was positive that he had the real coming champion under his wing. Burns was a pitiful sight. His eyes were blackened, in need of feeding, and he was hurt. But it was Burns' pride that was hurt more than anything else. His grin had vanished. "Gee. Willie" said Wright soothingly, "you certainly ran into a tarantula. Better let Doc Tate patch you." Burns shared at his manager and snarled at Concrete. "Guess you think you're the great- he proved the equal of all—black or white—with whom he had to deal, while he ruled with a rare combination of vigor and aggression over the crowd, and had created. His presence of mind was equal for all occasions. Once when urged to attack cannibalism at a time when he could not spare the men, he replied: "I must consider well before I disturb the graves of my ancestors."

No say, say to me. "Burned," I'll gonna get you in the ring again. boy, and give you a shelling so that, your 'muver' won't know you. See "Wille" protested Wright, frightening. "No reason for you to be sore at Concrete. Yeh that's his name. He's got concrete in 'both them fists. Be friends and I'll pilot both you babies to chame." BURNS GETS THE GATE "Who? Me? Me be in the same camp with this black freak! You gotta decide who you want. And think fast, too, for there's plenty managers there. If the 's' the way you feel about it, boy you can leave just as quick-as it takes to get your duds." Wright up more than he'd care to admit. Burns was astounded. He never thought for even a moment that he'd be sidetracked for this colored upscale dress. "Okay with me, he cried, 'but you'll hear from me again, and don't foretet it.' And Burns left. We watch his head. He then spoke to Concrete, who was sorrowfully watching the departing fighter. "Burns is just a bum sport. Who does he think to take in?" Concrete says. Say the swellest I've seen since Mike Gibbons stepped into the ring." Wright's conscience didn't trouble him, even though it was less than an hour since landing on the ability of Willem Burns. "Where did you learn to fight?" asked Concrete's new manager, "North Carolina, sir," "Yeh, but what part?" "Best in North Carolina, sir," "The man was initialized that there was litle use in continuing a subject which Concrete evidently had intentions of evading.

He took the boxers in his division to camp like the flappers on Ohio yeh! "In less months, he had either knocked out or defeated decisively every good man. It was now the moment when he was to meet Cap Nelson, for he was now weight championship world. As Concrete entered the ring and gazed upon the huge crowd, that was cheering him lustily, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He was confident. Wright had seen to that. Brown was in his glory and he knew it. He was determined to win that championship quickly—the quicker, the better. He was confident. His gloves on, Concrete saw a beautiful colored girl smiling at him. She was or slight build, with even pearl teeth. Concrete's heart beat best describes the little girl. Wright brought Concrete to his senses, by saying, "Remember, slug him. He'll try to box with you, but keep it out. He's got him to match him on the point of the chin." Just then the champion hopped into the ring. He was a handsome man, from his title by outpointing his men. Both men were confident as they stepped into the middle of the ring to receive instructions from the referee. Nelson whispered to me, "You go along last long. I think I'll stop you in the fourth round." Concrete grimmed, "Yas, sir, you all may think so. but I gotta see that you don t las that long, sir. You can wait for the bell. Concrete felt a pair of eyes on him. It was the girl with the even teeth. His heart started to beat faster, but it stopped for a brief moment—the bell had rung!

Concrete retaliated with a short rear few moments the optic was puffed. Nelson connected with Concrete's stomach with a hard left hook that made the Negro gasp.

The Islanders present one of the strongest Cuban aggregations to grace the diamond in several seasons and the locals are anticipating keen opposition when they take the field against them. Take Two from Camden The Sox took a pair of contests from the Camden All-Stars, white last, and the white nine by 14 and 3 scores. Flournoy went the entire route for the locals, allowing twelve hits, which however, were kept well scattered Loughrey, and the few who were was relieved in the fourth after he had allowed 11 hits, and Tate replaced him.

Hayes received excellent support from his mates, three double BY EDWIN B. HENDERSON (Director, Physical Education, Junior and Senior High Schools, Washington) Life would be a drab existence figuratively and literally, were there no color. Colorful competition is what people want. Color makes a difference and attracts. Temperament is figurative coloring in an athlete or artist. It makes for interest. Jackson versus Jeffries or Thompson fighting. Fields drew larger attention than just two white men. Gregory in basketball, a Pollard, a Hubbard, a Matthews or a Drew add zest to great games. The color element, the racial difference, create the added thrills that doubly warm the blood of the one time fighting man of wild life. Of course color-prejudice is a factor in preventing school injuries and making greater headway. There are those abnormal psychological cases that have a horror of darkness and dark things. Negroes seem to be natural athletes. They appear to be as fleet of foot, as skillful and as strong as white boys. When they enter the lists with white boys they usually bear themselves well. Unless they are indeed conditioned inferiorly, complex they fight hard for victory in any sport. Ten Outstanding In recent years colored boys on the highly organized contact-game teams are few. Few dark faces are seen in the football guide. In college basketball, I doubt if a half dozen are playing. Gregory at Columbia seems to be one of a few basketball players. I don't know any colored collegiate golfers, handballers, tennis players, or swimmers.' Wormley at lacrosse, Buster Wood at skiing, and several good West Indian soccerites have majored in these newer sports. Buster was starred in the '90s' weights at wrestling and Trigg pulled a varsity bar at Syracuse. Face Many Obstacles In the hard fight for berths on the contact teams, several factors serve to eliminate colored players. Chiefly, their own inferior feelings and a lack of sufficient teamwork. Weak-kneed coaches succumb to pressure of those sociological experts who foster racial prejudice to further economic or social ends and discourage colored candidates for teams. Coaches of southern colleges are often managers find it difficult to be fair and secure equal accommodations for the colored lad who wants to be with his college bunch when travelling. Finally the high school athletes keeps most of our best athletes out of white colleges. In one field of sport, track and field athletics, color has been less of an issue in which there have not been stealing performers, if not record breakers in some track and field event. One peculiar thine has been the apparent success of college athletes in which there have not been stealing performers, if not record breakers in some track and field event.

Life in colored colleges is attracting more of the boys who formerly yearned to enter white colleges. The lure of the plains of state own group is a potential attraction. Yet it remains the writer's hope and yet it that the time will not come when we are unable to read of or see our boys on the teams and in the lattice with their boys of America.

Moseley, Atlantic City's veteran sleuth, got his man again this week when he traced William King, formerly of that city, to Baltimore and carried him back to face charges of deserting his wife and two minor children after a hard fight to avoid extradition, Monday. Some idea of the length of the case, which the judge and his lawyer will go to return runaway husbands where minor children are involved is shown in the case of King who was sought for several months before he was located just outside of Baltimore, and successfully dodged the first attempt to carry him back until officer Moseley, who is both a detective and lawyer, attached to the prosecutor's office, obtained papers from the governors of New Jersey and Maryland giving him the power to carry King back.

During these pioneer days he was associated with Benjamin Franklin, the Committeeman of Georgia, and although they were of different party alignments the two were warm friends and both are 60 years of age.

Stewart and Thomas hitting The Afro-American, Baltiniore, Saturday, May 31, 1930 HearMeTalkin'toYa By BILL GIBSON WRITER, who does not sign his or her name, writing in a recent issue of the Crisis, that learned lilp mag, raises a hue and cry about the admittedly rotten condition that has developed in athletics in certain of our schools. While the information given by any number of readers, this pilar presents it in the hope that those to whom it is news may comment—or not. Training the big guns on the Southeast, the writer says: "Two months ago the Crisis carried some notes on the football season as observed by a competent referee. In the course of these observations there appeared the fact (there is no doubting it) that Tuskegee had not lost a game! I ask, why should she? Has she not kept the same team practically or seven years later? Has she appeared in Tuskegee for no less than six years. Unless there is a literal change of policy, it will appear next year. and Morehouse played out of the old association in the Southeast, which included UCLA, Fordham, and Morehouse, the ordinary rules limiting competition to three or four years, maintaining a one-year eligibility rule and so on. When Atlanta merged with Morehouse, Fisk engaged the former coach at Atlanta and he came with a new team. Fisk was the first team to issue the issue of the Crisis, the fastest team in colored football. Well, I ask, why should it not be the fastest? One of the all-star players was a sensation with St. Paul School in the CLAA. for a period of five years, ending in 1929. Another special team for Atlanta before going to Fisk. Another player, picked as all-star quarterback, was at Virginia Seminary for four years and at Atlanta two years before becoming the pilot of the Fisk team. Another special team (1929) was picked for Tennessee A. & I State College in 1928-29, and at length played on the Fisk teams. The list is longer and could be carried out in other colleges, but I restrict it to those with athletic associations. I comprise these colleges and schools that stretch along the Eastern coast from Washington to North Carolina, including also Lincoln and Bluefield Institute, has and enforces a rule that restricts competition for four years. This does not apply to athletics from one association team to another, for a period of one year. This does not apply to athletes who have played outside the association. Such men are always welcome. Last season Lincoln played in its regular lineup a man who played for four years a star at a Catholic college in Ohio. "Now that Negro colleges are being admitted to the associations of standard colleges, and even more are debating with these colleges and universities with even possible presidents, preachers, and other Big Ten or some other Carnegie-investigated groups. I wonder if we will have the nerve to say that Chico exhibited great racial prejudice in refusing to play unless Fisk benched Brown, her mainstay in the backfield for the last ten years. In the backfield for the last ten years, our schools and colleges I did not make an attempt to name an All-American football team last fall, although I had been urged to follow out a custom of long standing in doing so. To pick a team with the best available players, one that can be that way, would have necessitated the selection of several men, who by virtue of their ability and years of football experience put them head and shoulders above the average grid star. We have a service mitigated against them, particularly those who had changed schools several times. The only thing to do, then, would be to eliminate them and pick the next best. Such a team would of course not be representative of the best in football. And when I looked over the "official" All-Americans picked by some of the selections found at least one or more of these trump athletics of them. This talk of football, of course, is unreasonable, but since most of the shafts aimed at unsavory conditions in college athletics are discussed, if the matter is to be opened at all, Just last week I read the following lines from a southern writer-athlete, regarding the Tuskegee Tigers' 1930 football schedule. After listing the strong teams which the Abbottentons are fall, the writer observes that the Lafayette Lions wreck any Mule Harrison, who is laughing right out loud with Mule Harrison, Stevenson, Ike Robinson, the Adamses, Hockett, Belcher, Bailey, Shanklin, Johnson, Champion, Wright, Wooten, Smith, and probably Tadlock to turn loose on the opposition." You will of course recognize in the foregoing list several names that have graced these pages, namely: Whether the writer has graced the pages of Stevenson, the "Ol Man River" of Tuskegee grid gafne, will be in the lineup again, I don't know, but his attitude in assuming that such will be the case is certainly an approving one, to say the least. Every team wants to win—it is only natural to desire to excel, but when victory becomes uppermost the team will be graced for its sake, then there is time to call a halt. It is not a case for Negro schools alone. The Carnegie report demonstrated that, and the recent stench following the resignation of Cagle from West Point is further proof. It does seem to me that the time is over-rive for more house-cleaning than has been done. Occupied less house-cleaning than any other, and any point to the experiment of Dr. Johnson at Harvard University as a failure and claim that nothing can be done, and there are others who differ bitterly. Howard has at least made a step in the direction of cleaning house. Other schools, it seems could well be of Howard experiment, reify any mistakes or blinders that have made, and go even further along the way toward the athletic ideal.

USE A BIT OF GARLIC One epicurean has said: "A steak which is lightly touched once and only once, mind! with the clove of garlic, all over the lean, the bone and the fat, will be found par excellence when served with matre par d'hebuter, after a short sharp grill on a bright clear fire. The meat says, "I will be found immeasurably good if smeared lightly with garlic before roasting while the ordi-nary joint of the meat can be transformed with the aid of a soup or sauce or in a one of those condiments says under his discussion "Garlic: Its Use and Abuse," that "indescribable flavors of some dishes served to us in French or Italian cooking are often used in soup of garlic used by the chef." in a Of course in days.

BALTIMORE, MD 100% Pure Coffee Every Sip Delicious The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, May 31, 1930 K.K. Another meal to get! This echoes from every corner of the globe where the house-wife must plan three meals a day for the hungry family. Even during the hot summer she cannot relax—as far as culinary needs are concerned. The three meals a day must be well-balanced. They must meet the caloric need of every member of the family. They must be nutritious. In variety they must be tempting, for frequently appetizing meals be coaxed during longer months. Today a stock and variety of canned foods, and dishes prepared in the automatic refrigerator eliminate morning hours in a hot kitchen. And better still, mother appears at the table as fresh and poised as her young daughter, for her afternoon has been spent at the beach or at a porch bridge. Yet the nutritious nails of her family have not been reflected! Every housewife ought to cultivate the habit of planning meals that can be prepared in a jiffy. Yes, it is a habit after all—a habit of making your work light and short or hard and long. Vegetable Salad Combinations 1. Combine one cup shredded cabbage, one-half cup grated raw carrot, one-half cup shredded apple and sections from one orange with French dressing. 2. One pint cooked kidney beans and 1 tablepoon little pickled onions (minced) combined with mayonnaise. Serve on lettuce and garnish with cooked asparagus tips. 3. Cook or serve for each person. Scall, chill, remove the skins, hollow to form cups and fill with equal parts of minced, cooked meat, fish, or chopped, hard cooked eggs and diced celery, apple or cucumber mixed with garlic. Serve on platter or cress with a garnish of extra mayonnaise. Chicken Maryland % medium sized frying or broiling chickpeas, chicken or saffron salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 cup cooking oil, 1 pint white sauce, potato or rice croquettes, current Jelly, canned or frozen for fricashes, then dust with salt, pepper and cornstarch. Heat the cooking oil in a frying pan and quicken the heat with a spoon. Heat the heat, cover closely and cook gently or steam for thirty minutes. For serving, arrange in the middle of a platter with croquettes. Garnish with cheese, press parsley or curly tips and pass white sauce. This may be made from the drippings in the pan by adding to them two tablespoons salt, press parsley, cut, few grains pepper and a pint of rich milk. Rye Fritters 2 1/2 cups rye flour, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1 cup cornmeal, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg baking soda, 1 egg, 1/4 cups milk. Combine the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS When sewing on snap fasteners sew all the snaps on one side first, then rub chalk over them and press against the opposite side. This marks the correct place for the other half of the fastener and also assures a correct fit and saves time. Small maymawlise jars are handy as containers for small bottles of medicines that are easily in the cabinet. They are also useful in the pantry for tiny bottles of essence, oils, or extracts which are apt to tip over, get lost, or lose some of their aroma. I find that an ordinary shoe case with several pockets, hung in the pantry or on the kitchen door, is an ideal container for wax paper, twine, paper bags, etc. Before laundering men's neck ties, baste on both edges. This makes them easier to iron and prevents the lining from slipping. A good substitute for a fluting iron, to ad a finishing touch to ruffled curtains, is an electric curling iron. A pretty door stop may be made by filling a milk bottle with sand and placing an inexpensive pill in the bottle with thick material, preferably a old dress. A black cap with a white apron completes the costume and you have your own "maid holding the door open." I find that using a child's standing blackboard to keep score for contract bridge is most helpful. It is always a task to clean a grater after using it. My husband brought home a smear of grate from the 10 to 10 found the grater can be cleaned in a few seconds by using the brush and hot water.

EQUIPMENT POOR $251.95 Per Capita for Whites; $75.79 for Colored. RICHMOND, Va—Six out of every seven children who enter the public schools here drop out before they reach the high school, according to figures obtained in an investigation made by a local dilly paper. While the compulsory school attendance law, cease to operate upon children when they reach this age, and financial pressure to the poor equipment and facilities of the schools are cited as reasons why pupils lose interest, according to the writer. 76 Per Cent Attend Of the 13,000 children of school age only 11,442 are enrolled in the public schools. This means that one out of every eight children does not go to school. The average attendance is further cut to 76 per cent, according to attendance records. That the Negro children who are enrolled in school are of age such privileges as are offered is shown by the comparison with white pupils. The average daily attendance of whites is 81.5 while the Negro average daily attendance is 80. The 14 Negro school buildings scattered throughout the city provide 222 classrooms. 41 Pee Room Dividing this figure into the average daily attendance of 9,162 pupils, it is found that the one class room has over 41 pupils. In white schools there is a class room for every 30 pupils. According to the investigator, each of the 40 pupils was found. The Armstrong High School is the one Negro school which has been provided with a library by the library facilities compare poorly with those of the white high school and with those of other Negro high schools including the library facilities of the Armstrong Normal School are so limited as to appear almost farcal.

But Concrete that wasn't listening. He was grimming at the little slight girl. When the ankle bell rang for the second round. Concrete rushed to Nelson corner and jabbed the sore eye; the champion that shot a stick job that the champion was fighting hard. He put all he had into each punch. Near the end of the round Concrete astonished the crowd by completely outboxing the champion. The champion closed the box and closed the other eye of the weaken-in champion. The bell was welcome to Nelson and he wearily stumbled to his corner. Wright: oathed Concrete's run and stopped the ooding blood. Concrete was delighted when she waved back. "Say," spoke up Wright. who had noticed the lad's interest in the pretty colored girl. "do your love-making afterwards—fight now!" All Concrete answered was "Yes, Before the echoes of the bell had ceased Concrete was on top of Nelson. It was the third round and Concrete intended to make it the last. He punched with uncanny skill, hardly ever missing his man. NELSON FIZZLES Both eyes closed, the champion fought gamely. He knew he was fighting a using battle, but he was in him. As his punches became weaker, Concrete became stronger. Concrete shot his right arm forward and connected with the best that moment a towel was thrown to mid-mir and Nelson was champion no more! Concrete dressed as quickly as he could. He went home and gone. But near the exit stood the little girl with the even and shining Pearl teeth. Concrete walked over to her, and before he could uttered Honey, the girl hardly audible, congratulations, Mister Champion." "Thank you." Concrete replied, "You made me happy, when you waved back. Honest. You made me in 'min' championship." "Gwen," she said. "Got a bruder there named Remus Brown. Know him?" "Uh. Oh, let's colored toks in New York. They all them all."

Those were the exact words Concrete told himself three or four times a day. But the boy chosen so far a Willie Burns in his life. Burns still felt the sting of defeat at the hands of Concrete. His main thought was for revenge. He had long ago realized that he no match for the colored champion. "Listen." whispered Burns to Cros�sy one of his cronies.

SCHOOL PROBLEM NEXT Keep Negroes Out, Say Letters Broadcast. CHICAGO, IL. A letter, intended for the eyes of white people only, which aimed to promulgate property segregation in the Woodlawn was, exposed by the N.A.A.C.F. here, this week. The letter, signed by Fred L. Helman, secretary of the Woodlawn Property Owners Association, says that "the restriction in Woodlawn is over 90 per cent complete, and by continuing our work we can finish 100 per cent, and, until it is all signed up, some agency must remain active to look after the situation." Aim Blow at Schools A blow is aimed at the schools in the second paragraph of the letter, which says: "The school problem is a very bad one. We present time, due to the great number of colored children going to the Hyde Park High School and the Sexton School at 60th and Champlain School at 50th and Bexington School have restricted their property to white people and they are now finding it hard to get tenants with children from the school to school along with the Negroes. "Our restriction, of course, cannot keep the colored children out of the school and we are taking the necessary steps to see if we can bring them in and cohabit." If your tenants do not mind sending their children to school with Negroes and if you do not mind seeing the colored school children passing away to a white school then you do not need the help of our organization. But, if you are not satisfied with these conditions, join with the Negroes and try to help yourself. Our membership fee is twenty cents per foot foot."

Walter Pinderhughes, 1203 Druid Hill Ave., Madison 2403 The millions of listeners-in on the daily antics of Amos 'n' Andy and their Fresh Air Taxicab Company who accept it as a typical Negro business would receive a pleasant jolt if they visited the headquarters of the Royal Cab Company here and saw the efficient manner in which the business is conducted. Yet the Royal Cab, like the Fresh Air Taxi Company, has its problems at the rate of hundreds a day, and they come in the form of every passenger who crowds into any one of the dozen busy vehicles which are constantly in motion, day and night. Every chauffeur must not only be an expert driver, but also a keen student of personality. The Royal Cab force is divided into two shifts of ten men, each working twelve hours a day. Working on a commission basis, determined by the amount of milage on the cab meter, the men are able to earn on an average of $25 per week. The greatest amount of drivers is the amount of intoxicated passengers. These come in two groups—the type who are loud, carefree, and apt to run their bills up far beyond their ability to pay; and the other is the disagreeable, sulky and ugly type, who selects the driver as an object upon which to vent his bad temper. Many in this mood refuse to pay their fares and are either removed to the office, where demonstration is used, or else carried to the station where they are given a choice of paying the bill or accepting a fine or jail sentence. Many Tricks Used The rise of apartment houses in Baltimore has created many tricks by which taxi drivers are fleeced. A respectable looking passenger mingles with a stern-looking apartment house after running up a large bill, and upon making change find that he is a little short. "Wait a moment." and get some more money from my wife and I'll have you carry me back where we came from." The driver has the alternative to taking the car off the road to coffers and making up the difference on the meter, or taking a chance on his returning with the possibility of earning more on the return trip. He takes the meter with the result that after waiting a reasonable length of time, he goes in to inquire, only to be informed at such person entered that apartment. The time he reaches the top floor the individual may have slipped out from one of the apartments below. Some have even been known to rear fire escape to dodge a taxi bill. Traffic Jams Some drivers have had the experience of having a passenger slip out of the cab while they are in the midst of a traffic jam. To attempt to catch the offender would mean to desert the cab, which would bring loud honking from other motorists and attract the attention of the police, which would mean a fine for the driver. This trick has been practically eliminated in the new model cars which make it impossible for the passenger to open the door until the Fake Accidents Tricks are not only employed to avoid payment of fares, but dismistone people who are injured by taking accidents. People who have sprained an arm or a leg in their own homes sometimes call a cab, and after a short ride, the driver always claims to injuries can be disproved, because the cabs are so constructed that injury is impossible unless a very violent collision takes place. The cabs have six inches of padding, covering all woodwork and metal so that even severe jolls will not result in shock. The safety doors prevent injuries by allowing lightning, because he cannot get out until the driver leaves the wheel and is at hand to assist. In spite of these precautions, people are constantly at risk to get money on pretended injuries. Short Rides Another source of annoyance is the person who calls a cab all the way across to carry him from one door to another. This is also true of the fashionable group that will ride one block to attend a formal dance. The sporting class make the best passengers, from the drivers' point of view, while church people are more liberal, while church people are the closest with their tips. U. S.

REPORTS SLIGHT GAIN IN EMPLOYMENT Urban League Bulletin Indicates Improvement in Construction Work. Many Agencies Work for Increased Opportunities. With construction and domestic work taking the lead in employment, recent industrial reports indicate some little improvement. While it is evident that conditions are far from satisfactory, some little advance was made in a few places. Here and there, chain stores placed clerks. Philadelphia and Chicago deserve special mention in this regard. Filling Stations Filling stations provided employment for several men in charge, particular by the city street railway of Denver was offered in construction work and removal of unused tracks; in Des Moines a colored man was employed at a new market, and a drug store and a hotel promised employment. In Milwaukee an automobile plant took its first colored car. St. Paul's number of Negroes employed in a prominent automobile factory was increased, raising the proportion heretofore adhered to as a definite policy; in Jackson, Mich., an elevator operator was added to the staff. Three men were placed in a garage as porters. Near Jefferson City, Mo., 1,000 Negroes out of a total of 3,000 employees were employed on a dam; and three Negro musicians on orchestras were engaged to furnish music for an amusement park and night club. Vocational Week More significant to the whole employment situation has been the attempt to increase the Negroes to the conditions faced by colored wage-earners. For instance, the Ministerial Alliances of Richmond and Des Moines are giving special consideration to improving economic opportunities open to Negroes. During the recent Vocational Opportunity Campaign, conducted by the University, a number of cities talked to their Sunday morning congregations about the improvements that should be made in their personal conduct to offer students the Denver X.M.C.A., working with the Wallace Simpson Post American Legion, started a campaign to open up positions formerly denied Ne'eravahive is the veterinary hospital in which no Negro civilians are employed. Return to Jobs There were reports, too, of the return of Negroes to positions from which they had been discharged during the period of depression. This was"especially true in Detroit, where unemployment in the automobiles level, forcing great hardships upon the Negro population.

(Washington Bureau of the AFRO) WASHINGTON, D. C.— That the Negro has made his greatest advance in the commercial field during the past five years, was declared by James A. Jackson, of the United States Department of Commerce, in a national radio broadcast on Thursday. Mr. Jackson spoke over station WRNY during Negro Achievement Hour. "American business," he averred, "which for many years did not consider the Negro, now recognizes his earning power. In the past, the absence of a recognized economic value in the Negro has been a major factor in the unfavorable consideration in some places where now a newer notion prevails. 1.500 Factories "Colored people have more than 1,500 factories engaged in the manufacture of 55 different articles of commerce. Negroes are represented in 179 different subdivisions of retailing; many are employed as salespeople in stores located in the colored districts of the larger cities, regardless of the racial identity of the stores owners. "In a number of cities, Negro merchants have become members of local voluntary chain organizations; and in three lines: drugs, furniture, and groceries, small chains of their own have been launched. One of these organizations has taken on a national aspect. The Colored Merchants Association is credited with operating 16 city units-totaling nearly 200 stores and with other groups in process of organization. 27 Organizations "Twenty-seven national business and trade line organizations and more than 250 local business promotion bodies give expression to the growing mercantile mindedness of the Negro. The Negro is still pioneering in commerce; the oldest of his commercial bodies is less than thirty years old. When the late Booker T. W. Washington created the National Negro Business League, there were so few Negro business people that hopeful interest was the only encouragement for membership in the body. "A pair of colored comedians sounded the death knell to the joke type of store when a laugh provoking scene was presented in "Shuffle Along," a musical which shortly after the war convoked the public with its plot wove around the ambitions of two grocery partners to become mayor of mythical 'Jimtown.' The merchandising spectacle offered in one of the acts. The musical, in a movie two-reeler, amused the country at large while administering a useful lesson to Negro merchants. "Thus enabled to, see themselves as others see them," the merchants became conscious of their betrayment, followed. "Another comedian indirectly influenced employment relations between the races. There is in New York a shipping clerk in a wholesale shoe house whose appointee the day after the senior partner in the concern had been relegated by the late Bill Williams, then in Ziegfeld's follies. When told of the possibility of working with the colored man, he said: 'Why can't he work with him when a hundred high salaried actors work with Bert Williams? Maybe he'll be a good shipping clerk like that fellow is a comedian.' The man is now chief of the Department of Commerce desires to help all business people, small and large. It functions in the interest of the whole public through the Washington offices and more than fifty district offices. The data and statistics may be had for the asking. Specific questions are cheerfully answered for the asking." Lester Granger Accepts Post with Urban League BORDENTOWN, N.

COLLEGE PRINCE A SPECTACULAR EXTRAVAGANZA Play of College Life to be Staged at Ford's Theatre Next Week. LOCAL STARS PLAY Cast of 75 People Includes Fine Local Talent. Of the many dramatic offerings sponsored by schools and private organizations there has never been produced. The only occasion offered is access or surpasses in pretentiousness and elaborate staging, "THE COLLEGE PRINCE" at Ford's Theatre, June 6, 1930, at 8:30 p.m. (Standard Time). First of all, the particular extravaganza is to be given is rated as the most commodious and the best equipped theatre south of New York, for it is here that such a production is rolled by David Belasco, Elegiandre and The New York Theatre Guild are directed. "The College Prince is a light musical drama, the situation is quite complex, the setting are given a local setting and are so dignified in their origin, and are handled so skillfully in their development that they become a wonderful acclaim to the Baltimoreans this institution. The story* of the play is as follows: "Don Blackston, an all-round college hero and star athlete of Dorgan Astronomy, has been barred for his position as 'stroke-oars-man' in the annual college regatta. This seriously interferes with the hopes of Dorgan. Don is to be announced should he enter the race and win. Ted Lloyd, a half-way rival of Don, has been elevated to Don's position. Dorothy, as coach of Don, hasizes the inadmissibility of this. She secures the assistance of June Weston, her dependent cousin, who agrees to coach Don. The usual result occurs. Don instead of learning of astronomy, interprets the symbols in terms of love. Don fulfills the requirements and is restored to face the place, with a pictureure representation of the ten crew members in regulation crew outfit, and Dorgan is victor. There is a surprised end to the story that is bound to make an appeal. The play moves with situations which are serious, tense and irritating, rather than with those designed to be comedic, and with musical numbers which are beautifully staged and mounted with scenery direct from the New York theatrical warehouse. The Murray, who is remembered for his many musical comedy successes at the old Albaugh's Lyceum Theatre, wrote and staged the play with a specially selected cast of local actors. Mr. Murray, who has had the exceptional opportunity to study stage direction with the 2dwin Knoof Repository Company at the Auditorium Theatre, has given the opportunity to study stage production with the New York Theatre Guild in Philadelphia for one week at Thanksgiving and two weeks at Christmas, holidays, when the Guild Company trudged "Meteor" at the Guild Theatre with Lynn Fontanne, Alfred Lunt and Douglas Montcoen as the director of the structure of Douglass Montcoen.

The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly SEASHORE'S CALLING CITY'S UNEMPLOYED Fewer Persons Need Police Shelter Here than During Winter Months. FEW VAGRANTS Some Found to be Disabled, Sent to Hospitals. The number of men seeking shelter here is on a constant decline, police officials declared, in their weekly report in which 38 men were said to have received a night's lodging in five police station houses, this week. Officials of the Western district, where 20 of the men were sheltered declared that the cause of the decrease was due to the weather, which has opened employment centers here and in the city. Many of the men who learned had migrated to summer resorts where they can secure employment. Vagrants Decrease Coupled with the decrease in lodgers, police records show that there was a decisive decrease in the number of men arrested for vagrancy. There were only fifteen men taken into custody for being without places of abode and visible means of support. Among this number were the two who were physically worked. They were committed to the City Hospital while the others were sentenced to jail from ten to thirty days. Those receiving shelter were: John Esserman, Newark; John Tighman, Newark; John Washinton, Washington; Frank Johnson, Pittsburgh; Arthur Wetty, Pittsburgh; Harry Jarvis, Daniels; Hermann Daniels, Daniels; Norwood, N.J.; James Rolins, Wallace Williams, Harry Goldsmith, Robert Tasker, Oppa, MD; Leon Bright, Richmond; Walter Keys, George Brunt, Westland, Pa.; Orle Magle, Michigan; John Golben, Westland, Pa.; Jerome Vestis, Vestis Long, Arthur Rosse, James Pratt, Pittsburgh, Michael Shorter, Geo.

The County Reporter David J. Ward of Crisfield, writes me as follows: The steady rain which fell all over the country during most of Wednesday was a God-send to the farmers, although coming too late to greatly benefit the early strawberries, it will materially help the later varieties as well as the beans, potatoes and tomatoes. The berry crop in the county, and particularly in that section around Marion, has in recent years been taking the lead in cash crops, but this year, due to a decreased acreage and a practical drought that has extended from the first of April, not more than twenty-five per cent of a normal yield is expected. The first of the crop started to market on about the 8th of May, but it was not until this week that the fruit really began to ripen. The quality is as poor as the yield, the berries that are now going to market being of very inferior grade. Snap Seans The next crop to be harvested will be beans, the Ford Hook and string varieties. These crops got off to a poor start, but the stand is much better than at first anticipated, and while a little late, will probably be "Due to the presence in the last two years of the Mexican beetle, farmers have greatly curtaled their acres by increasing the increasing that of the snap or string variety. While there is no accurate way of checking up on the acreage, it is thought that it has been increased by at least 100 per Early Tomatoes "For the past several years the early tomato, which is shipped in the green state, has been a most popular crop and last year many farmers reaped a small harvest from them. This year almost without exception, farmers planned a great increase in this crop, but due to scarcity of plants the outlook now is for no more than a normal acre- "Most of the plants used for this crop comes from South Carolina and Georgia, but early floods there, followed by drought, have combined so that they have been almost impossible to procure. Many of those that were gotten within the past two weeks perished for want of rain and only in rare instances have come out. "Thoumands of plants have gone out in the fields within the past three days, but these will be approximately three weeks late in maturing and will probably reach the market with produced New Jersey, which will mean a low price. "Potatoes "The early potato crop promises to be good for crops up to 80 to 90 inches, and with rains from now until maturity the yield should not be greatly affected by the recent drought. With a prospect of short crop in the Eastern States, a favorable market is anticipated. Hay Crons "Pastures and the early hay crops have been cut short during the late dry spring but the supply of milk produced in this section for the Philadelphia market has seen main- lained at about normal." Later she went to make her home with Richard Galther, who kept her for sometime, and then she was traded to his sister, Mrs. Margaret Poole, for a gray horse. He was a family of five children. She is now making her home with her son, Elmer E. Myers, and family, in Westminster. She has a very good memory at her age, and until a year ago, was able to go many places, and could sew without glasses. She took a Civil War and the battle of Pittsburgh. Last Sunday, she was 104.

TYPIST TO COME-BACK EX-WORLD CHAMPION Cortez Peters, 1926 Amateur Title-holder, to Enter Tests in September. WASHINGTON > With the intention of staging a come-back, and the desire to carry the racial banner of excellence into the world contest Cortez W. Peters, 1926 world amateur typewriter champion, will enter the contest which will be held in Richmond, Va., September 28. Young Peters, who is now 23 years of age, is secretary of the Morning Star Lodge of Elks, won the world championship in amateur typewriting when he was 18 years of age with a speed record of 120 5-stroke words per minute for one hour. Many Medals With 25 medals, certificates and titles to his credit. Mr. Peters is the ranking athlete in the only Negro who has participated in these world championship contests. He trained himself without the support of a typewriter. It was the urge to invade the South that brought Peters back into the contests after three years in the contest were held in New York; he says he must be so anxious to耻辱. But being held, as it is in the gateway of the South, and realizing the feeling that exists there that there is an almost umbrage cap between me and the enemy, I desire to prove and that that enemy is utter/ incorrect. He has won bronze, silver, gold, pearl and ruby emblems from the derwood, Remington, L. C. Smith, Remington, L. C. Smith companies for excellence in typing. ALLEGED D.C.

Mrs. Schanks Finds Social Work Interesting Here. Society Gossip. Dear Pansy: An unfailing sign that the spring season draws to an end is the concluding of studies and the final exams in the high schools and col- The season brings failures for the year-round trifling set, promotions for the thrifty, earnest workers, the unseeking set, happiness and future success to the folks taking advantage of opportunities, and giving worldly things a second consideration. Baccalaureate sermons, junior and senior proms, commencement exercises, banquets and, formalms, will be the principal festivals for the spring and the beginning and the first week of the next. Programs of wide and varied interest concluded at final social clubs, mark also the end of the spring season and the beginning of vacations. In spite of the chill in the air and the touch of early fall, June, the month of the spring nights, brings with it also a number of prominent happy brides and grooms, and it is hardly a week away. Memorial Day, should the weather be in will clothe the city with flowers, ceremonies, parades, the decorating of graves in memory of dear ones and of war heroes. Other events on this memorable day involve beach parties, motor trips and the like. But back to other occasions of the past week. Vernon Bailey of 724 Dolphin Street is continuing to clean up all opponents who face him and Bill ones in the defended kickoff different sets in two days in Washington and declare that they will be glad to meet any Baltimoreans. Gee, they must be pretty clever as confident as they are of themselves, and from what they say they have done. Before the summer is over, they play as far as Canada. Maybe some of these Baltimoreans might try them out, for a number of them are also considered great sharks at whist, and we'll see what they say. By the way, a rather amusing incident—Principal Connor sent a poster for the Coppin Normal School play up to the Douglas High School in which he had troubles enough of his own without advertising Mr. Connor's. Coming to think of it, a gent in a straw hat and summer suit, his companion in fur coat, came past the AFRO to work Monday a.m. W. L. Hartfield, of New York, one time AFRO circulating manager, with Dr. Paul L. Jones, Brooklyn physician, motored through a route to commencement at Raleigh, N. C., and I might add that Josiah Digg, Dunbun Theatre owner, is a guest of the faculty of the Hampton Institute during their commencement week. They tell me that Mrs. Carrie (Roscoe C.) Bruce of New York addressed the DuBois Circle to Mrs. Albert O. Reid's recently. Lester Granger of Bordentown, N. J. was here looking at Dr. Thomas I. Brown's Urban League. BERT, BETTY AND MACK HERE Bert Fitzgerald is the picture of health. Yes, she, baby Betty and Mack arrived Monday early. Flossie wouldn't hear the snuggle happily up at Flossie's and Howard's indefinitely. Between Grandpa Fitz and their aunt, dear little Miss Mary Bradford, nobody gets a show with little Betty. She uses it, you know, pull down everything, get in your way, scare you to death, and puts you on your p's and q's as to what you say and do. Cute as they make 'em and personally possess that ability to ter. So for the time, Mack and Bert only get attention when Betty is put to bed. However, all their relatives and host of friends are glad to have them back. The glad news reached us also on Monday that Eunice Berry Hall was so tickled at the arrival of a daring baby girl, Mrs. Bradford morning that the nurses and doctors have to watch her closely to keep her from hugging it to death. See, she has two robust looking lads, so it's natural she longed for a baby, and splendidly and between dadmy, Aunt Audrey, and grandma Berry, it's a die as to who gets to the cradle first.

He was filled with Love He exemplified Herism, and He possessed Wisdom in the highest and best sense. He leads us on toward something new and better.
