EMELLE. Ala.—The spirit of Independence Day was completely forgotten as this bloodthirsty little town formed itself into a mob of avengers to help Clarence Boyd, a white garage owner, collect a $2.50 bill from a poor Negro, that ended in six being killed, while the whole countryside recked in terror and bloodshed.
Posses armed with guns and using hootbounds, combed the county, arising terror into the hearts of all aliens, raiding homes and molesting innocent colored citizens who took them in their search from Robertson and his son, Ossi who killed two white men.
Governor Gives Reward
The mobs were urged to greater efforts by the announcement of Governor Bibg Bray, or Alabam who offered $300 each for the return of the slayers of the white victims, but seeks no insultation concerning the slayers of the colored men who were killed in the resisted an unofficial kill of their home by a band of hordrons bent upon lynching.
The Negroes slain were John Robertson, shot down resisting a posse seeking to search his home, and Esau Robertson, his nephew, who was lynched by a mob. In the middle of his rifle Scales and his nephew arrived, and search for the other Negroes was started. When the posse called at the home of John Robertson he met the Negroes and was slain. It was discovered that Marsh had been shot and Ayres wounded, and the mob fired the house. The Negroes roared in John Robertson's home, possemen formed and started a countywide search.
Trouble Starts
The trouble started when Clarence Boyd attempted to collect a debt for a storage battery he had sold Esau Robertson. Robertson did not help, and the battery incoming him that he could get it when he brought the money. sometime later Esau, in company with his brothers, called to reclaim the battery from the dune which Grower Boyd, uncle of Clarence, threatened to shoot the colored men if they did not get off the place. Instead of being intimidated, one of the Robertson's older Boyd to the trigger, killing him. The brothers then left the place. The brothers made their escape but Esau was held by the crowd, which grew steadily until finally, he was taken to the woods and hanged by the farmer's mother. The Negroes came to their deaths
A coroner's jury rendered a verdict that the Negroes came to their deaths

Heard and Seen in Haiti
By CARL MURPHY
W. B. Scabrook, white, who has written a celebrated volume on Haiti entitled "The Magic Island" is said to have gotten many information in the form of illused voodoo practice from an aged priestess, Haitians declare that Seabrook made himself one of the cult, and agreed to marry one of the daughters and remarried her until she became a son before alleged voodoo rites which he describes. Incidentally Seabrook "wonders" in his book whether the mixed bloods are not a superior race to either white or black.
La Nouvelleiste, a capital evening newspaper, last week speaking of the Haitian Minister of education who cannot speak English, and the Molon, who took French, and the interview that they saw looking at each other during a recent interview like "two china bulldogs." The criticism was directed at the official Haitian interpreter who had to make sure that he arrived. The commission's interpreter, Alphonse Henning, acted in his stead.
Paul Prattis, ANP representative with the commission, is the only man to report sick during the stay here. He was sent to bed for a day with a slight attack of dysentery.
Every American who comes to Haiti goes home with a wholesome respect for U.S. plumbers and deformities not to listen to jokes at the Excel馆 (French owned) the annex which housed both the Moton and Forbes Commissions, there are two bathrooms containing tubs and toilets and not, but the water pressure is often too weak to reach the bath on the second floor.
All Haitian bathrooms are kept constantly full of water. There is a water faucet. At the hotel at Gonaives where the commission stopped overnight, the lavatory and toilet were in the rear like the privies in the rural area. Only one of the two bathrooms.

Commission Head is Mediator in Damien College Tilt.
CRISIS LOOMED
By CARL MURPHY
PORT au PRINCE, Haiti.—Dr. R. R. Moton, acting as mediator, averted a strike of the student body at Damien Agricultural College last week.
More serious than the strike was the political crisis which overed the capital and constantly threatened to result in the resignation of President Roy and his entire cabinet.
Motion in Conferences
Dr. Moton spent the better part of two days in conferences with President Roy at the Palace and with U.S. Charge d'Affaires Grummont, and Dr Carl Colvin, head of the college, both white, at the commission's offices.
Seek Colvin's Scalp
The minister of education took the position that by treaty the college is under his direction, and therefore ordered it closed July first. He pointed out that it has on its faculty some drawing salaries of $400 and $500 a month and only 38 students. He pointed to the fact that last March, before the strike of the college student's which hastened the sending of the Forbes Commission, the college had an enrollment of 10 Dr. Colvin is believed to be another item in the minister's demands.
Lower Taxes Demanded
The situation precipitated was further aggravated by the Haitian demand for a lowering of the taxes on tobacco and alcohol, which were recommended by the Forbes Commission, "if it is at all possible."
The U.S. financial adviser opposed the reduction unless some other way could be found to keep the budget up to its present level.
The minister of education insisted that he would resign if his demands were not met. Other members of the cabinet, thoroughly in sympathy, planned also to quit with him, which made it plain that President Roy, upon whose approval they acted would follow them.
Apparently the United States, which through the Forbes Commission negotiated the ousting of the Borno government and the installation of M. Ray as provisional president pending the fall election, had no desire to see the regime it has set up take French leave and add the responsibility of running Haiti to Uncle Sam's other troubles.
By the terms of the compromise which are known, Damien is to be closed July 15, instead of July 1, and the tax reduction is to be subject of further negotiation.

PORT au PRINCE, Haiti.—The Moton Educational Commission, sent here by the U.S. Government to make a study and make a report and recommendations for future development of schools and colleges in the republic, completed its labors and sailed on the Steamship Christobal, Wednesday.
The commission spent three weeks in Haiti, having arrived here Sunday, June 15.
President Roy Sends Greeting
In a message to colored Americans handed to the Associated Negro Press and newspapermen with the commission, Provisional President Eugene Roy said:
"Greetings to all colored Americans, our brothers. We Haitians expect great things from the report of the Hoover Educational Commission headed by Dr. Moton and composed of distinguished American citizens."
although a hour of the commission's time has been spent in intensive study of the educational problems of Haiti, the last few days before their departure were crowded with official and semi-official activities. On Sunday Dr. Molton preached at the Episcopal Church and was the guest of Provisional President Roy at a soccer game in the afternoon. Later he and members of the com-

Gets Decree.
MUCH PROPERTY
Husband. Well-to-Do Publisher, Must Pay Large Sum.
PORTLAND, Oregon.—That woman may rise to the heights in the professional world and outstrip many of her male competitors at their own game but that she remains a woman throughout, was proved this week when Mrs. Beatrice Cannady obtained from her husband, Edward Cannady, of this city.
Although Mrs. Cannady is one of the leading lawyers and business women of the city she could not suppress the eternal feminine war when she ordered the publication of the decree with the following explanation:
"In view of the fact that Mrs. Bonnie Bogle (Barney George) seems to be taking unusual interest in Mr. Cannady's private affairs, which he has been doing for years, and which had much to do with the course I pursued by resorting to the courts, I take this method of publishing the degree for her special benefit, so that she may know just how the degree has been made of our business."
The couple were married on June 27, 1912, and had two sons, 14 and 17 years of age. Each was the one mother and the other maternal. The wife was given six lots in the city of Portland and the husband was ordered to pay $44.00 per month on the mortgage indebtedness. He was also ordered to pay $75.00 per month on each of the two sons until they become of age. One-half of this sum is to be credited to rental of the family home and the remainder is to be paid in each. The husband is a printer and publisher with a large income.

WOMEN BREEDERS KEPT TO SUPPLY SLAVE MARKET
Special Corps Get So Much Per Head for Each New Born Babe.
BRITAIN WINKS
Sudan, Under English Rule, Shipping Point.
(Paris Bureau of the Afro-American)
PARIS.— Additional facts on the importation and sale of Negro slaves in Asia are given by Joseph Kessel, French aviator and explorer. Kessel, as was said, was sent by Le Matin, leading French newspaper, to study the slave-trade in Abyssinia and Sudan, and his articles abundantly illustrated with photographs, which have been appearing daily for three weeks, have created a sensation, especially in League of Nations circles.
Breeding Charged
So many Negroes have been taken into the Hedjas in Arabia, says Kessel, that their children alone assure a good supply for the slave markets, "Every care," he said, "is taken to assure this supply by breeding. There is even a special corps of women who look after expectant mothers, and who get so much a head for each newly-born."
Use Difficult Paths
To avoid being caught by French and British warships, the slave traders, says Kessel, take difficult desert routes to get into Åsia. At the ports they are disguised as pilgrims going to Mecca. They market of the Hedjaz, the sale and the purchase of slaves, on openly" he says. "I had with me two black servants and one of the leading, merchants and asked me to let him have them. When he saw that his proposal was not pleasing to me, he offered me a ship through which the Koran forbids the sale of slaves to unbelievers I can get you some pretty Javenees girls after the pilgrimage is over."
Can Buy Girls
"When I inquired the price he told me that it varied from $45 to $800 according to the price. The Japanese are natives of Java, and are Mongolian with a slight mixture of Negro. It is also important to note that in these Oriental manners, the man is any buyer, regardless of race or color, although Negroes are in the majority. Tax on Trade Both the king of the Hedjaz and

KANSAS SENATOR FACES FIGHT ON RENOMINATION
Rank and File Remember that He Voted for Parker.
NEGRO IS FACTOR
Henderson's Job Not to Halt Opposition.
NEW YORK.—Plans for a concentrated fight against the renomination of Senator Henry J. Allen (Rep., Kas.), will be announced by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in a few days, Acting Secretary Walter White, told the AFRO-AMERICAN, Tuesday. The fight against the Kansas Senator will be based on the grounds that his advocacy of the confirmation of Judge John J. Parker was a blow at the fundamental citizenship rights of eleven Negro Americans, declared Mr. White.
Won't Halt Opposition.
Prominent Negro leaders in Kansas, while rejoicing in the recent appointment of D. E. Henderson, attorney, as special assistant to the Attorney General also declare that this appointment, credited to the work of Senator Allen, will not halt the operation on account of the Parker affair.
60.000 Voters
There are 60,000 Negro voters in Kansas, and their votes are an important factor in the politics of the State, it is said. The National Association will join with local bodies in opposition to the renomination of the senator.
That the senator senses the stiff opposition against him has been announced in statements and speeches in which he has sought to show his love for the Negro. Kansas is keenly alert on the request, due to the fact that many of the preliminaries of the Civil War took place there.
For these reasons Kansas has an important place in the history of the country. The latter opposed by Negro leaders, it has caused Senator Allen considerable worry. He has issued statements written articles and made speeches protesting his devotion to the Negro.
Now he has secured the appointment of one of his protégés to an important Feee. Negro with one from his own state, and this ought to put him in good standing. In fact, he got a Negro newspaper in Kansas on his way to the back of the back the administration. Now he has produced fruits meet for repentance.
Raw Whiskey Causes
Two Children's Deaths
LEONARDTOWN, Md. — Two colored children, William Proctor, age three years and six months, and his sister, Betty, age four and a half years, died Monday from the effects of drinking: awhiskey. It was said off from home into the woods and came upon a still. They took a half gallon jar of the liquor into the woods, and drank their fill which caused the woods to burn. They were buried at Bryan town Tuesday morning.
President Roy, who disavowed the act of his subordinate and advised U.S. Charg d'Affaires Grumment that the school and its American teachers remains in status quo.
The Central School, located at Damien, just outside the capital, has long been under fire. Haitians charge that the American teachers are fake experts; that they are paid $450 a month while salaries of native teachers vary from $4 to $60 a month, and that many of them cannot speak the French language.
To investigate the work of this school and make recommendations concerning it, constituted one phase of the work of the Motton Commission, and the action of the Haitian minister is regarded as evidence of his unwillingness to wait until the commission made its report. By this it is regarded as an attempt to set off an educational bomb in the commission's face.

Peter F. Richardson and
H. A. Dyson, Lawyers,
Fight Suspension.
WOULD HALT HEARING
Defense Seeks to Throw Cases
Out Before Trial.
(Washington Bureau of the AFRO)
(WASHINGTON)—A motion to dismiss charges against two attorneys, cited to show why proceedings should not be taken to suspend them from practice in the police court, was heard Wednesday by Presiding Judge Schultd, and Judges J. P. M. Mcahon, L. R. Hitt, and Ralph Given.
The court is investigating complaints made against the lawyers by persons yet unnamed, which if proved true, will result in further proceedings to suspend them.
Two Defendants
The defendants, Peter F. Richardson, and H. A. Dyson, were represented in the hearing by the firm of Perry Howard and A. C. Hays. Dyson was present when the Richardson case was not. The Richardson case was the first called. Mr. Burkensham, government prosecutor, said "There's a motion to dismiss this case. I would like to have the motion disposed of to clear the way for trial." Judge Suehdi said in opening: "I am confident the motion to dismiss. The only thing the court would like to know before making final disposition is whether you have any support to this motion." Mr. Haves then argued that the rules preset by the court itself require such matters had not been complied with. He emphasized that the judges were the accusers and the triers of the case too. Mr. Haves cited several legal precedents, and stated that the Supreme Court of the United States restored the rights accorded because of the court which had resulted in their disarmament.
Investigating Charges
"When Mr. Haves stated his unfamiliarity with the nature of the charges, Judge McMahon said: "The court will advise you that you cannot be held guilty of the content of this hearing. It is not a content proposition, and it is not a disbursement proposition. It is for the purpoe of investigating charges, and if the charges are true, either or not the men will be suspended from practice in this court." Mr. Burkinsham, government prosecutor, countered: "Whether a statement be by charge, or by court, or by rule to show cause of hearing, or anything to enable the defendant to be apprised of the nature and character of the charge, surely a member of this bar could not say that he was true to what he has been charged with."
Continuing his argument to the Judges, Mr. Hayes stated: "I cannot get up and my system cannot do anything that is entirely prejudicial and unfair. Your honors have made certain rules. You do not have the right to be treated right to disregard the preferring of charges, and that your honors have evidently done."
You yourselfs have become the chargers.
"Why, 14 months after the alleged offense, is the man called upon to answer a charge drawn by your honor out of accordance with the rules," there is a reason that you must then the only reason must be that your honors have determined that it should be in this way, and you have already prejudiced the proposi-
Called Unfair
"The charge is based upon evidence adduced by someone else, and the charge is shown to be heard," it is very nature. The charge had not been nature. The affidavit upon which it is based. I submit that it is not a fair procedure.
At the conclusion of Mr. Haves's statement, Mr. Burkiss had the prosecutor at the court.
May I. I be requested, "in the next day or so endeavor to lactate out-of- it" witnesses in this case and communicate with Mr. Burkiss, the agent of the case?
When the Dyson case was called, it was suggested by Mr. Burkinshaw it it be tried on the same date as the Richardson case. July 11, 1973, was adjudged upon by prosecutor and the defense counsel for another hearing.
Pair who Took Auto of Congressman, Held

Wilkinson Talks
"The $500,000 increase granted the District of Columbia concerned only the Federal government, and did not in any way affect the Miner Teachers College bill." said Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of public schools, to a representative of the AFRO, Tuesday.
"While Congress did not grant the request in the book of education for the position for assistant professors at the college," he continued, "it did provide for a president and a complete quota of professors.
"The board of education in a special meeting Tuesday, appointed professors to the position of president for the full year of 1831. If Congress had not given an increase of $500,000, the District itself would have met the deficiencies.
"The increase has to do only with the amount of money to be contributed by the Federal government to the District, and does not affect even the total amount of the entire District bill."

GIRL AND CHERRY TREE FIGURE IN MURDER
Would-be Killer Meets Death Himself in Defending Girl's Honor.
Old Scores Settled with Gun;
Slaver Freed.
WASHINGTON--Thomas J. Milliner, of 1411 Thirty-fourth Street, charged with the fatal shooting of Clifton Fleet on Saturday night, was exonerated by a coroner's jury at the District Morgue Monday morning.
Called to the stand after several officers of the Seventh Precinct had testified that Milliner had come to the station on the previous Friday seeking protection, Milliner said in part to the jury:
Under Cherry Tree
"The whole trouble arose over nothing. I saw Fleet and a girl named Evelyn Lowry go under a cherry tree. I saw the girl a day after she began to kid her. I fleed afterwards but I did not seem to be. I kidded him too.
anfly. On Friday, Fleet came around and asked me why I was broadcasting about him going under the cherry tree with the girl. I told him that he was crazy. After he began to make trouble, I threatened to get an officer. When I went out of the door to get an officer, he cut my coal stove. I struck him across the nose with a walking cane. The blow knocked him down. "He got up and attempted to cut me again. I struck him again with the walking cane, and he stalled down. I walked away.
Called with Pistol
"On Saturday night he burst into my house with a pistol in one hand and an ax handle in the other. As he aimed the gun, at me, I knocked it up and pushed him out the door. I ran back to the kitchen to get my robe. "By this time he was entering the front door again. When he leveled at me, I fired twice. He staggered out of the door, and I went into the kitchen to await the officers." Milliner, when prompted by his attorney, told the court of the grudge that he had never liked me since twelve years ago," he said. "Fleet don't like his father. One day he attempted to cut him, and I caught him and prevented him from harming his father. I turned to walk away and he attacked me, cutting my leg arm. Fifty-two shots had to be fired and bound at the Georgetown University Hospital."
Sought Protection
Officers of the Seventh Precinct related that Milliner had been to the station house on Friday in an attempt to secure protection. Milliner told the jury that he was refused the warrant unless there was an emergency or an officer with him. A physician of the Georgetown Hospital told the jury that the man was remarked on Friday upon when he received treatment for the wound caused by the blow from the cane:
"Stick Around"
"Stick around, and I will have some ore, business for you."
The jury debated less than ten minutes before rendering the verdict.

Woman, Victim of Accident, Disappears
Brought applause from an audience of 500 people in an Independence Day speech on the grounds of Capitol View Baptist Church here, July 4.
(Washington Bureau of the AFRO) WASHINGTON — The disappearance of a woman he had knocked down with his delivery truck caused only a charge of having no driver's permit to be placed against Arthur S. Johnson, Thursday, by Judge
"The Fourth of July is the day when America celebrates the anniversary of its independence," he said. "The black man has just as much right to celebrate as anyone else. It was a black man, Crispus Attucks, who shed the first blood in Boston at the hands of the British Redcoats in the fight for independence. We are going to keep up the fight until we enjoy all the privileges of American citizens."
Dual System
There was no mincing of words. He plucked the evils of the dual social system, the degradation of color of women, the ruination of home and happiness, all attributed to the efforts to see the Negro down.
"The Negro has been a patriot in every American war; 400,000 made the sacrifice in the World War to make the world safe for democracy. How I wish they could have democracy! More than 200,000 took part in the Civil War.
"Since we have been such loyal soldiers to America, why shouldn't we be good enough to be officers in the army or navy? When I nominated the first boy for West Point, I told the committee to select one that every one would know was a Negro boy.
Old Time Negro
"There is no such thing as racial inferiority. The old time Negro has been a detriment to the advancement of the people. When a man thinks he is inferior to some one, he is inferior to himself also. Some say that I should not enjoy certain rights under the Constitution. They know no better." Speaking on social equality, with heads on his brow, the Congressman declared;
"Social equality does not mean anything. It is up to each individual to make his own social contacts. If a person is not a member to his table, it is his business.
"Black Mammies"
"I hear men of the Caucasian race bragging about their black mammies. It doesn't seem that sucking at the mammies' breasts hurt their health. Then, how is it going to hurt them to ride on the same street car? "
"If the white man is going to insist on separate bedding, separate waiting rooms and the like, he should pass a separate bedroom law too. "
"When the Negroes first came to this country, they were all black. If they are not black now, it is because there has been a great deal of social equality practiced somewhere. "
"The Negro should exercise every right that any other American exercises. When first entered the Congress, when first entered the repressive state that he would not eat there. He will have a long time to stay away. Some barbers sent me word to not come into their shops. The very next day I would go in.
Get Accustomed
"I'd just as soon be eating corn bread and cabbage on U Street, as to be in the Capitol lunch room eating soft-shell crabs. But it is my desire to educate the Congressman so that they will get accustomed to Nebraska's seat at the Capitol." The Congressman related the history of the war that white factions secured his indictment and attempted to keep him from Congress. He told of the offer to withdraw the indictment if he would withdraw from the race. Even after I was elected," he continued, "the Nebraska press, especially the AFRO-AMERICAN in Baltimore, stated that I would not be seated."
Who Cares?
"After Parker's attitude toward the Negro had been exposed, President Hoover still insisted on his confirmation. There was nothing to do but defeat him. During the fight against Parker a Congressman said to me. The President did not like what you are doing. My reply was, that you care? Before God made the Republican, he made the Negro, and my interests are with the race."
Speaking of his work in Congress, Mr. DePriest explained: "My mission is to do something for the American people, and vote for legislation which will benefit That will benefit you. Because you are the American people."
Seated on the platform with the Congressman were; the Rev. R. W. Brooks, pastor of Lincoln Temple; R. G. Biars, manager of Suburban Gardens; the Rev. C. L. Russell, president of the National Ministerial Alliance; the Rev. W. H. Jernigan, pastor of the Mt. Carnel Church, and the Rev. Holloman, presided. All except the Rev. Jernigan spoke in the preliminary program.
The meeting was held in the open air, the church not being large enough to hold the crowds which overflowed the grounds around church. For more than an hour he held his listening session, the audience pretext the audience broke into the wildest cheering and hand clapping. His utterances were rapid, almost cyclonic.
Unbounded hatred for the person or persons who did not the that the Neuro should enjoy all the rights of the individual, whom were stamped in his every act and word.
The crowd which was forced to stand during the address were eagerly besieging the platform at 3 o'clock. Those whose physical frames shrank from standing during the preliminaries, stepped back, but close to men when the Congressman arose to speak.
The Conressman was the guest of the day at the palatial home of Captain and Mrs. C. E. Gibson. 4901 Blaine Street, ne. Captain Gibson is a retired fire-chief of the No. 4 Engine Company. Just prior to the afternoon program, an apetizing four-course dinner was served in honor of the guest. Plates were also for seven. Those who received the occasion were: R. J. Bliars, W.

J. A. ROGERS FLAYS DEFENDER OF MOBS
White French Writer Taken to Task in Press for His Article.
APPROVED LYNCHING
M. de Montgon said Violence was Necessary.
(Paris Bureau of the Afro-American)
PARIS.-M. de Montgon, feature writer for the Petit Bleu, in a recent issue, attempted to stir up sympathy for lynching by declaring that it was necessary, chiefly for protecting white women.
J. A. Rogers, in replying to him in the Chicago Tribute of June 13, (Paris edition) said that this was far from being true.
Between 1889 and 1918—the worst period of these mob murders, that there were 3,224 synchons, of which 691 were white men, 11 were white women, and 50 were colored women, and asked whether it was necessary to have women in order to protect white women?
Few Accused of Attacks
Rogers further pointed out that "only a small percentage of Negro men lynched had been accused of attacks on women and that "a suspect person, who was the last to act as both judge and jury, in hearing such accusations."
Lynching, she showed, had an economic cause, the proof being "that no sooner did the Negro begin to migrate. In larger towns, authorities began to take measures against lynching with the result that it fell off 90 per cent."
"The idea that lynching is for the protection of white women has been passed to the town and the Negro writers hardly use it any more. Further, the better class of white women all over the South have passed resolutions opposing this barbarous method," she said. "N. P. literature on lynching to the editor of the Petit Bleu.
M de Montignon's article is significant in that it is said to be the first that a French newspaper has defended lynching.

Court of Calanthe Selects Leaders for Year.

(Carroll News Service)
PROIDENCE, R.I.-The Knights of Pythias, Alphabetical Order, Jurisdiction of New England, ended their 13th annual session held at the Olney Street Baptist Church with a monster parade on Friday morning. Boston, Mass., was selected as the place of the next annual session.
The five day session, according to delegates, was among the most harmonious ever held by the organization. The election of a successor to the late Grand Chancellor Edward B. Barco lacked the expected bitterness because of the efficient parliamentary ruling of Dr. Charles Wickham, of Oklahoma City, supreme vice grand chancellor, and supreme worthy counsellor, who was a guest of the organization and who presided at the session held for the election of a successor to Col. Barco.
Percy Gardner Wins
The election for Grand Chancellor in which three candidates were expected to cast their hats in the run for the office narrowed down to three candidates, withdrew in favor of Dr. Walter O. Taylor, in order to prevent a split of the Boston votes. The contests was very close with the present grand chancellor, Perry W. Gardner, of Springfield, Mass., who was filling out the unexpired term of grand chancellor Edward B. Barco, winning by two votes.
Other Officers Elected
The following grand lodge officers were elected for the ensuing year:
J. S. B. R. Bourne, grand attorney; A. M. Ballard, grand lecturer; Google Higginbotham, grand keeper of records and seat; Norman N. Ravnor, grand masker; Robert L. Holmes, grand prelate; Dr L. M.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.—The Socialist party of America, meeting here in executive session, today pledged to the 12,000,000 Negroes of the nation, its full support in their struggle to win complete civil, political and economic equality.
The following message was sent by the Socialists to the convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People assembled in Sprinfield, Mass., and signed by Clarence O. Senior, national executive secretary of the Socialist party.
Parker Rejection
"The National Executive Committee of the Socialist party of the United States sends its heartiest fraternal greetings to the convention of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
"Especially do we congratulate your association on the defeat, by the combined forces of labor, of the colored people, of the black Parker's appointment, of theudent Hoover to the Supreme Court, Parker's anti-labor and-Negro bias was an insult to even-forward looking person.
Co-operation
We hope this co-operation with forces of labor will be continued with groups working to secure old extensions for the veterans of industry, and part pay for the unemployed, through a system of employment insurance. BofE of those of enlisted and social legislation are inimitable aid to the two masses who now suffer greatly from the plague of unemployment and old age insecurity.
"On our part we pledge the support of the Socialist party in breaking down the color bar and obtaining full such rights and obtaining full and political rights for workers, both colored and white, in the South."

cently, defended forced labor
in Africa, holding that this
was necessary for the welfare
of the natives.
He said that at certain periods, portions of the population suffered from famine, and that this could be avoided only by taking the natives in hand and training them.
The effort that France is making to advance the natives he said should not be confused with what is popularly thought to be "forced labor." M. Digne, who represented the government, was vigorously opposed by M. Jouhaux, Socialist, and head of the French Labor Delegation as well as by M. Bromley, head of the Fugitives, delegates both white.
Want Sumpression
The clash between M. Diagne and his opponents came when the Labor Delegates proposed that a clause be inserted to the effect that forced labor, u.d.. whatever form, even if it completely suppressed at once. M. Jouhaux replied that he valued as indict as any other, the work that France is doing for her African colonies, but that he also desired to weed out all defects.
Five-Year Plan
Albert Thomas, Laborte, and member of the board of cabinet, then proposed that forced labor be abolished in five years. Deputy Diagne proposed that the delay be increased to ten years, but the commission accepted the amendment of Albert Thomas.
Forced labor has been defined by the commission as "all labor or service enacted of any individual under penalty and for which the individual did not offer himself of his own free

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (1906)
when a church sets out to try one of its pastors, strange things may happen. The New England A.M.E. Conference meeting at Providence, R.I., the other heard charges of mistreatment made by Prof. William visited his school. It is strange enough that a college president would go to the university to make a charge against a minister, but the findings of the trial committee are stranger still. They read in part as follows: "Resolved. That we find no evidence to convict the said minister of even guilty of impolice conduct. The charges have been thoroughly investigated and patiently and rigidly examined."
The New England A.M.E. Conference meeting at Providence, R.I., the other day, charged of intoxication by Mr. William T. Crawford against an A.M.E. minister who visited his school. It is strange enough that a college president would go to an annual conference to make charges against a minister, but the final charge the triumph committee are stranger than they read at as follows:
"Resolved, That we find no evidence to convict the said minister or even find him guilty of imprudent conduct. The charges have been thoroughly investigated and patiently and rig-ily examined."

Divide Right, Gentlemen
Going the political rounds this week was a story to the effect that some Negro leaders in the Fourth Legislative District are inclined to listen to white politicians who tell them that they should not expect more than three representatives on the Republican State legislature.
In the Seventeenth Ward, it is said, even some organization officials are advocating putting only one Negro candidate in the field.
If there is to be a friendly agreement between white and Negro Republicans in the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Seventeenth Wards of the Fourth District, built up along racial lines, this certainly should follow the voting mathematics of the situation. No other slate should be approved by those designated to lead the Negro voters than one which would give the full numerical ratio of representation in this district.
Basing a calculation on such figures, the slate should give the Negro voters two in the 13th, two in the 14th, one in the 15th and two in the 17th ward. This would mean seven representatives on the legislative ticket.
From no other districts in the city will a Negro be placed on the organization ticket, even though they may have votes, and those present in the fourth who are included to listen to compromise talk intended to lessen the Negro representation, should be called to account.
In the meantime, every man and woman of voting age in the city should register in order that representation in the next legislature may be assured.

Civilization in Alabama
Civilization in Alabama
Picture, if you can, a woman riding peacefully in an automobile when a howling pack of human maniacs bursts upon the scene, riddling her with bullets.
That is civilization in Alabama.
That is not only civilization in Alabama, but civilization in America.
For two days, beginning on the very Fourth of July, a howling, blood-thirsty, demon-like pack of wild men have been allowed to prowl, burn, kill and devastate a whole community in a sovereign state of these United States while President Herbert Hoover, safe behind bodyguards, the Department of Justice, the commanders of the U.S. armies, the state and municipal police departments have sat contentedly in swivel chairs without raising a detaining hand.
That is civilization and government in America.
Down in Emelle, Alabama, for three days last week the lives of 800 Negro citizens were worth about their ability to hide like hunted animals. An American mob, as secure in its fiefdish quest as possessed in its Army, has been allowed to go about the business of killing innocent men and women and flouting every vestige of American law and morality.

Whatever else may be said of the Seventy-first Congress which closed a fifteen-month session last week, it was not without color and action. To the Negro, of course, the halting, of the appointment of a United States Supreme Court judge, outspokenly prejudiced against colored citizens, is the outstanding achievement of the long session. This act struck deeper into the fundamental principles of American life than any measure coming before that body, for it set a new bulwark against the fast growing tendency to make a scrap of paper of the Constitution. While the John J. Parker fight rose on the surface as the most important issue, it must not be forgotten that this session passed several measures of vital importance to the group. A tariff bill, for instance, was enacted. Unless the flexible provisions of the Smoot-Havley Act made actually to flex, and unless there is a safeguard against an unjust distribution of the American prosperity it is expected to promote, the Negro will not profit much by this legislation.
A study of the whole matter should emphasize the fact, however, that for a decade the main objective of Negro leadership should be to balance the Negro's economic opportunities in this country. This fight will not concern itself so directly with the tariff issue, with the fact that the country which uses the Negro from participating fully, as the white citizen participates, in the distribution of the product of his toil.
The farm relief program put in operation by the passing Congress, should also be of interest to Negroes; but here, too, the effect of this measure on the group Negroes will be active pressure Negro leadership will be able to exert to make its benefits operative among Negroes.
This measure, in effect, is intended to stabilize prices of farm products and its objective is to provide adequate wages for farm workers. For this, Congress is taxing every American citizen. But there can be many a ship between the cup and the lip, and unless there is some demand organization seeing to it that the money filters all the way down to the Negro wage-calcs on Southern farms, here too, there will be no
The reorganization of the federal prison system cured an abuse of Negro labor which has been a stigma on American civilization for some time. The leasing of prisoners to Southern private interests left room for cruelties and exploitation characteristic more of the dark ages than modern times. This measure of the Seventy-first Congress will be of direct interest, it is to hard to predict what President Hoover's law study and enforcement group will do, but the legislation it may inspire may go into the American shame of lynching. Brought into existence to halt the lawlessness involved in prohibition maladministration, it may have to go deeper and tackle the basic causes of disrespect for law in this country. Here, there is especially hopeful speculation. For when this more or less scientific body shakes up its test tubes of crime factors, it will be certain to first trace the causes of the crimes taken in the South to nullify the U.S. Constitution. It may find that the only way out will be to enforce all laws in the spirit and to the letter.
A Good Job
Announcement this week that the new Negro unit of the Playground Athletic League had started operations as of July 1, will be heralded as the best Baltimore news of the week.
For several months, a bi-racial committee, appointed by the P.A.L., and headed by Sidney Hollander, local manufacturer, has been working on plans to launch a city-wide recreational program for colored people.
Under the new set-up, the Negro work will become a separate P.A.L. unit with a directing head and a staff of adequately paid trained employees to conduct a comprehensive leisure-time program in the city's activities along with the colored school department, now directed by Francis M. Wood.
For the present year the unit will have an appropriation of $10,200, and with possible adjustments, the budget will probably be increased to a maximum of around $25,000 from various sources.
The bi-racial committee, realizing the importance of supervising leisure-time activities of children and young people, has insisted on placing the work on an efficient basis, and these are the ones that are responsible for the best trained people to be found in the country. The committee has put over one of the most constructive pieces of work for Negroes done here in some time and has made a good job of it.
It but remains now for the Negro population of Baltimore to take proper advantage of the colored department of recreation and co-operate to the effect that it will cut juvenile delinquency, promote health, and increase human happiness for all the citizens of Baltimore.

For several months, a bi-racial committee, appointed by the P.A.L., and headed by Sidney Hollander, local manufacturer, has been working on plans to launch a city-wide recreational program for colored people.

In this respect it will take its place in the city's activities along with the colored school department, now directed by Francis M. Wood.
For the present year the unit will have an appropriation of $10,200, and with possible adjustments, the budget will probably be increased to a maximum of around $3,000 from various sources.

How Bancroft "Roasted" the Supreme Court for the Dred Scott Decision.
To the Editor:
The Washington Post relates a scene which he witnessed in a session of Congress in 1866. He says:
The occasion was the delivery of an creation over the late President Lincoln by George Washington, and one time Secretary of the Navy.
It was a very solemn occasion. The two houses met in the hall of the House of Representatives. Speaker Colfax presiding. At his side was Ben de de de president by the Senate. On the left, a Speaker President Johnson and his cabinet were seated, while the members of the Supreme Court occupied sents on the right. Among the justices present, four of them, Wayne, Grier, Clifford and Nelson, had been members of the court at the time the Dred Scott case was begun, and he joined the going under the Chief Justice Taney. I was doing the O'Yez stunt for the court, and went in with the justices.
Criticism of the Dred Scott decision formed a good part of the oration, the orator being especially caustic in his comments on the Banc of Voice and his point of return, kind of voice, and he seemed to split out his words, looking at the justices as he did so. According to his views, the decision was an unpardonable crime, and those who joined in it criminals of the most degraded degree.
As the court was returning to its room I heard Justice Wayne say to Justice Grier: "We may have been wrong in that decision, but surely this was not the proper place and time to tell us so." Justice Grier responded: "Antony, you remember," said, 'I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him. Bancroft evi
Bancroft could not have been less severe than Lincoln himself was during the various campaigns in which he participated after the decision, which was enacted in March 1861. However, Lincoln's criticism was not in the form of invective but rather of contumely and deceit. For example, he inferred that the demon was due to collusion among Stephen Dougwhom he opposed for the Senate from Illinois and Tennessee, who was inaugurated as President the before the decision was announced. Those who referred to as "Steve, Roger and Jim" that Taney—who, by the way, was a holder—had not been able to have heard Gov. Lincoln speak and was an act submitting to the states an argument to the Constitution (the 13th) aboliously.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, July 12, 1930
Said I to my heart last night,
You bother me far to much;
When I want to be calm, peaceful, and free,
You're thinking of love and such.
This love is a treacherous thing,
Assuming a gentle air;
It intrudes and before you realize,
It's captured you unaware.
Ah, then what a tyrant this love becomes,
Your days are a series of waiting;
And waiting for what? May I ask;
A moment of love, then nothing remains but the
asking.
My heart said nothing and turned away,
And I saw it was softly weeping;
My heart's such a nuisance, I want it no more.
Will you take it? It's yours for the keeping.

"Who Said Paternalism?" Asks Frank R. Cross with and He observes that Workers Cannot Change Their Economic Status by Voting Republican or a Democratic Ticket.
To the Editor:
On every hand we hear the admission that the rapid, almost miraculous growth of industrialism is one of the outstanding characteristics this machine age is ever so long and has been geothermalized that for the first time in "worked history, vast quantities of goods are being made available to meet all known numb needs, through mass production.
As conditions exist today, the plague of unemployment, exactly one from the National. A private industry from the other country. Hence, with an intensification of the uninvolved for no in the wake of the Republican Party's brazier and successful effort to redeem its campaign pledges to the rich manufacturing class. Neither is the great success in the Eagle scream" in the last presidential election will be afforded a splendid opportunity to appreciate the fact that worker is a worker on election day as an other day, and that he cannot simply by voting a Republican or Democratic ticket there is no difference between them) change his economic status.
However, not alone should the Negro work in an lesson from the enactment into law of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Bill but to be opposed to the collective ownership and democratic management of the agencies of wealth production and distribution (Socialism) base their objection thereto upon the belief that such an arrangement would partake the same power to these people without a protest that line itself is part of the government's paternalism in behalf of the rich. In this instance it is the rich and powerful who are the beneficiaries of paternalism while in the other instance the protective arm of government would be extended in behalf of all.
As usual, do useful work.
In the case of the施工 works of this tariff monstrosity cannot see beyond the walls of dollar and cents which they calculate will flow into their private pockets as a result of the use of the public funds to to theிரpials by shut-in, or the American made goods and that will-will is bound to develop as a consequence; that the race of social progress will be slowed down, that even war might finally result from this event. Even if we know that the most concerned Evidobally they know that in the event of war the long suffering working class will forget the tariff and unemployment and gayly go forth to die again "to make the world safe for democracy."

Please tell me in how many states a mulatto has the chance to become governor or where he has no color bar at all? Social equality for the Negro is the wrong document and are enduring to preach. We want working equality, and let us build up a social standard among ourselves. Let us build a moral standard that cannot be reached with tainted money.

Crosswail, and He Observes that Workers Cannot Change Their Economic Status by Voting a Republican or a Democratic Ticket. To the Editor. On every hand we hear the admission that the rapid, almost miraculous growth of industrialism is one of the outstanding characteristics of this machine age. There is also more or less general agreement that for the cored history, least quality of goods are being cored history, least quality of goods are being cored history, meet all known human minds, through mass production.
As conditions exist today, the plague of unemployment exacts from the Negro a greater toll than from any other group. Hence, with an intensification of the problem, the Republican Party's brazen and successful effort to redeem its campaign pledges to the rich manufacturing class, Negro voters who "made the Eagle scream" in the last presidential election will be afforded a splendid opportunity to appreciation day and a successful day on any other day, and that he cannot simply by voting a Republican or Democratic ticket (there is no difference between them) change his economic status. However, not alone should the Negro worker learn for the placement into law of the Smokey-Hawley Tariff Bill but all wage earners. Many people who claim to be opposed to the collective ownership and democratic management of the agencies of wealth production and distribution (Socialism) base their objection thereto upon a parachute of paternalism. Yet these same people accept without protest this latest act of governmental paternalism in behalf of the rich. In this instance it is the rich and powerful who are the beneficiaries of paternalism, while in the other instance the protective arm of government may be extended in behalf of the useful work.
As usual the beneficiaries of this tariff monstrosity cannot see beyond the walls of dollars and cents which they calculate will flow into the economy. The tariffs will attempt to make reprisals by shutting out American made goods and that ill-will is bound to develop as a consequence; that the pace of social progress is slowed by the restrictions which really rest on this tariff act, seem not to cause them the least concern.

No "Season of Contentment" With Burnings and Lynchings Going on, Says Dr. Grimke, and Can't See How Ex-President Coolidge Could Expect H.
To the Editor:
I see from the papers that ex-President Coolidge, in his letter of greeting to the World Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo- June 26th, ends with these words: "I trust that your meeting will have that success which is worthy of making the very great progress that the colored people and workers and that it may be successful in contentment with the present and faith and hope in the future."
I see from the papers that ex-President Coolidge, in his letter of greeting to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in its annual meeting at Springfield, Mass. June 20th, ends with the words that success is worthy of making the very great progress that the colored people are making and that it may be a season of contentment with the present faith and hope in the future.
How Mr. Coolidge corrected colored people in a state of contentment with conditions as they are all over the country, with its burnings and lynchings still going on in the South, and the many injustices and invidious distinctions that still be seen in the white man, the only Negro member of Congress, Mr. DePriest, who accepted an invitation to address an organization of colored citizens at Birmingham, has been notified by the Klu Klux Klan of Alabama, that his presence is not in it—how, I say, in view of such conditions. Mr. Coolidge can expect the colored people to be in a state of contentment, even for little while, is beyond my comprehension.
The very fact to which the Coolidge refer "the colored people" means that the colored people, instead of quieting them, help to make them contented, is having, and naturally, the very opposite effect. The more they advance in intelligence and in material progress, the more every right, every opportunity that belongs to them as men and as American citizens to them. We do rejoice over the progress that we have made, but we are not yet satisfied, we are still bent on going for the right, every right, every opportunity that belongs to them as men and as American citizens to our rights. We would be less than men, and utterly unworthy of the respect of other races, did not we.
Mr. Coolidge speaks also of our "faith and hope in the future," and hope we have with faith in ourselves, and faith in God and faith in the ultimate triumph of right. Also, the future, however dark it may seem at times, is never to us without hope. We feel a apostle Paul felt in his struggles with oppression but not hemmed in, perplexed but not dissparing, persecuted but not abandoned, struck down but not destroyed." There was always a way out to him, a cheering outlook. And so is with us, with our faith in ourselves, and faith in God. Our face is ever towards the light; we are always, more or less, hopeful, more, cheerful.
If we keep straight ourselves, if we do right the gates of hell will not be able to prevail
How Mr. Coolidge could expect colored people to be in a state of contentment with conditions as they are all over the country, with the burnings and lynchings still going on in the South, and the many other colored districts distinctly beset our pathway; and, at this very time, the only Negro member of Congress, Mr. DePriest, who accepted an invitation to address an organization of colored citizens at Birmingham, has been notified by the Klu Klux Klan of Alabama, a white man's club whose his presence is not desired. —how I say, in view of such concession, —how I say, Coolidge can expect the colored people to be in a state of contentment, even for a little while, is beyond my comprehension.
The very fact to which Mr. Coolidge refers. The very great progress of quieting them, helping to make them contented, is having, and very naturally, the very opposite effect. The more they advance, the less likely they are to be content until every right, every opportunity that belongs to them as men and as American citizens is accorded to them. We do rejoice over their progress, but we do rejoice over what we satisfied. We are still bent on going forward, we still persistently and aggressively in carnest battling for our rights. We would be less than men and less worthy of the respect of other men, we did not.
Mr. Coolidge speaks also of our "faith and hope in the future." Faith and hope we have. We have faith in ourselves, and faith in God, and faith in the ultimate triumph of rise. And so, the future, however it may seem, is not without hope. We feel as the apostle Paul felt in his struggles with opposing forces. He says, "On every side I am harried but not hemmed in, perplexed but not despairing, persecuted but not abandoned, struck down but not despairing," dark, it may seem. He is a cheerful outlook. And so it is with us as a race. No strain of pessimism runs through us. Our face is ever towards the light; we are always, more or less, hopeful, more or less, cheerful. We weep in despair ourselves, if we do right, the stress of hell will not be able to prevail against us.

SIMPLE THOUGHTS
Thinking is simply listening to some mysterious inner voice, and what we hear is recorded in our minds and we call it thought.

4,000 Communists March
Little Things; Big Things
"Career" Women Arrive
Senator Allen's Ruse
What $700 Would Do
THE COMMUNIST ZEAL which
made 4,000 march in protest
against what they called a "cap-
ital-murder" of Alfred Luro, a
nero comrade, will cause serious
thinking among people who re-
member how some deep-seated
changes which rocked this world
in by-gone days started.
Two hundred Communists in New
York last year, and four thousand
this year, may mean 40,000 next,
and that may be serious.
No one now fears a revolution in
these United States, but some people
favorably situated economically
at the center of the world.
DO FEAR REVOLUTIONARY
THINKING WHICH MAY
MEAN REVOLUTIONARY VOTING.
Negroes, shut out of many avenues of work because they are Negroes, looking at thousands of white workers walking solemnly behind the bier of a dead Negro worker, cannot help thinking. That would be an unusual sight anywhere on the face of the earth.
SCIENTISTS ANNOUNCED last
week the discovery of a microscope and technique which will reveal germs so small that thousands of them could find breathing space on the point of a needle.
These tiny animals, however, kill more people every minute than lions, and cause the world more worry and cost. And costly is the chance chase down the germ of cancer, for instance, we could save a million lives a year throughout the world.
When you think of little germs, think also of big bodies. A star that you see may be a hundred thousand times as large as the earth; and there are suns so much larger and hotter than our sun that were the latter dropped into one of them, it would be like tossing a small piece of ice into a roaring furnace.
And then you think further, that there are hundreds of millions of these big stars, and you get some idea of just how little you are.
Anyway, it is good mental gymnastics to think how little and also how large things in this universe may be.
CAREER WOMEN are coming more and more into their own. In the past, we woke a band brought in for non-support, stated that he withheld funds from the household account because his mate withheld hers for her own use.
That is carrying the 50-50 proposition to its natural conclusion. If women-career women, if they wish to be called that—wish to take their places alongside of the men in the daily domestic harness, they have the God-given right to do so, but they cannot have to have their cake and eat it, too.
It was stern biological necessity which produced a world wherein men are supposed to shoulder the responsibility of the heavy work and the family unit support. If women wish to change all that and make men the clinging vines, they have the privilege. Already there is a tendency in that direction.
In the past, women were pitted because of the necessity of their having to help provide for the family. Today they are choosing such conditions as careers.
SOME WHITE SENATORS know their politics and some do not. Senator Allen of Kansas evidently is confident that his successful effort to have D. E. Henderson, a protege of his, appointed as an assistant to Attorney General will correct the situation, so far as Negro leaders are concerned, created by his ardent support of Judge John J. Parker.
It will be interesting to see what happens. Senator Arthur Capper, Allen's colleague, broke with the administration when it wanted him to vote for Parker, a declared opponent of Negro participation in politics. But Allen swallowed the North Carolina jurist, even though he knew that if the 60,000 Negro voters in his state wished to do so, they could give him considerable worry in the next election. Kansas is closely enough divided to Negro votes count, but Senator Capper counted on his ability to smooth things over with a sweet political morsel after he had slapped the Negro notes in the race.
Attorney Henderson could hardly be biased for taking advantage of a situation like this. The thing he should most remember, however, is that he has his appointment, not because he is a friend of Senator Allen's, nor because Senator Allen is a friend of his, but because THE WORK GUNNING FOR PARKER-SUPPORTING SENATORS DIRECTLY AFTER THE RECORDED THEIR VOTES ON THE QUESTION OF HIS CONFIRMATION.
"WHAT IS $700, ANYWAY?" asks a young man taking this column to task for opposing the expenditure of that sum of money on an evening's entertainment by a high school class.
As money goes, $700 is not very important. It all depends upon what it is doing. Much less than $700 started Rockefeller on his career.
There are so many things which could be done with $700, which any group of young men could raise for business as well as pleasurable purposes, that we venture to name a few.
Start a department store. Few of the men in the Wanamaker class today had $700 cash to start with.
Start a chemical manufacturing plant. Neither Madam Walker nor Mrs. Anne Pope Malone had that cash when each started his business.
Start a bank. One of the biggest banks in this country started as a $500 capital loan concern.
Start a newspaper. Neither of the three largest newspapers conducted by the Negroes today had that much money when it first started. But why go on?
The Laughs Behind the News BY RALPH MATTHEWS
Last Friday the nation celebrated Independence Day and there were many fatalities. A lot of people laughed themselves to death because we were celebrating independence and didn't have any.
The Declaration of Independence says that all men are created equal, but evidently a lot of people haven't read the Declaration.
America has been fighting a long time for the freedom of the people, what most of the citizens would enjoy is a little freedom here on land.
The reason the country is in such a deplorable state is because it started out with thirteen colonies, and thirteen is unlucky.
The war was won in 1776 to get America from under the control of Europe, but the immigrants have poured, so fast that they finally gotten it back in their bands again.
America is the land of opportunity. All you have to do to be successful is not be able to talk English.
They fought the Revolutionary War to drive out the British soldiers and replaced them with prohibition agents and traffic cops.
It's mighty tough to stop your car to listen to a speech on the Freedom of America and when he hands it over a ticket for parking too long in one spot.
And nothing is more annoying when you are hollering "Hurrah" at the top of the hill, than to get locked up for disturbing the peace.
The laws are so tight that when somebody says give three cheers, for red, white and blue, some people get cold feet and only give two.
When you declare you are full of the Spirit of "76, you take a chance on a snapper walking up and smelling your breath.
Prohibition is a grand success. You never see men lying around in the streets drunk any more. Nowadays when they take a drink in a speakeasy they can't get that far.
Of course, the people who want the 18th Amendment repealed could base their argument on the fact that prohibition makes liquor too plenitiful.
Some historians are raising the contention that the Declaration of Independence was not signed on July 4 but on July 8. Many citizens have grave doubts that it was ever signed at all.

Lightweight Wins in Battle of Century
Lightweight Wins in Battle of Century
Little David Stops Man Mountain in First Round.
PALESTINE, (By Wire)—What was scheduled to be the battle of the century, ended abruptly here today when the plucky little batter of the Philadelphia team, the white hope of the Philistines, in the first round of their encounter.
Goliath entered the affray a heavy favorite by virtue of his size and past record. His defeat came as a complete surprise and is considered one of the greatest historical history. Little David sent a fast right to the forehead with his trusty sling shot and the Bounding Basque went down for the count.
Charges that the blow was a fou were quickly disproved.
A PRAYER
Of beauty, wisdom, strength and
grace.
Help me cast off the laxness and fear. The spite, conceit, stupidity and greed Which bind my eyes and trap my foolish feet.
Force me to see myself just as I am Until I am shamed and sickened by sight—Then set new visions flaming in my soul.
New, clean rebellious pounding in my brain.
Until, through pain and fury, I shall slowly come
To be the woman I have longed to be
The way is dark, but I at least can be
True to that Inner Self which I do know.
Loyal to that beauty I do understand.
And keep the faith with my own heart.
That is my prayer as to my Self I
HELP ME TO BE AS TALL AS MY
OWN SELP.

The Proofreader Talks.
About three-fourths of the misspellings that come before the proofreader will be found to be due to three causes: (1) mispronunciation, (2) spelling the wrong form of the word, (3) using the wrong termination.
The first and second classes were discussed briefly in a recent talk. A few more examples will be presented.
1. The following misspellings are: emergency, saxophone, ukelele, prestage, miniature, strickly.
2. Spelling the wrong form of the word yields such errors as these: cited (sighted) on the beach; hailed (haled) into court; hotel steward (steward); and, perhaps more mon of capital (captain the building) capital (the city) is meant.
This list could be extended indefinitely.
No amount of spelling from lists will cure these errors even if the two forms are set in juxtaposition and the definitions are attached. Only reading, which will be the proper form in the proper connection, will be of any avail. Even so, the reading matter must be of a class that can be relied upon to be correct.
3. Using the wrong teniation is another prolific source of error. For example, there are numerous words that are correct for ence, ent or ent, able to lie, er or or and so on. Words which take one termination and which the other, presents one of the most formidable difficulties of the language. For example, we spell assistance, but persistence, and other words to choose between and ence arbitrarily. To make matters worse, in a few cases either form is correct; for example, resistance or resistance; dependence or dependence; which is likely to cause the unwary to register another form as
In general, *ant* and *ance*, or *ent* and *ence*, are used on the same stem to form the word needed to form the verb. These are also depend-ent and *ence*). There are a few cases, however, in which the one form of the word may be spelled *e* or *e*' but the other form may not. For example, we may spell *resistance* or *resistance*, but we may not spell *resistant* (with the *e*') or *resistant* and *confid*, have different, meaning
All of this is, of course, complicated and confusing, and all of it applies likewise to other terminations besides those named. The word *difficulties* is used in reading (with silent pronunciation) so that the correct form becomes familiar to both the eye and the ear. In the meantime, consult the dictionary when in doubt, which you will be, in most cases. P. H. M. M.

It is pleasant to know that a group of nine young Southern women is to come to this city to study sociological problems at first hand. But is to be hopeful we will still have to construct of these embryonic sociologists in hand are familiar enough with their science to point out to their students that Baldwin is the most respectful, like other cities in the country. For instance, NEGroes in Baltimore are treated by a method somewhat different from the girls from Alabama and South Carolina should be warned that lynching is the exception rather than the rule in this State and that the course will handle delinquents.
As to the courts themselves, they too operate along lines which make them hardly characterize the law, and concern themselves with petty immortalities and transgressions as they do in most Southern States. We have silly laws here, but generally speaking we are not criminals, not wastrels. This means that the courts can operate quickly and effectively upon the real dangers to the community. Hence criminality here are common. More dangerous criminals spend their time either in jail or somewhere beyond the reach of the long arm of the law.
These differences could be multiply-defined and those mentioned are sufficient to indicate that the young ladies would be misted were they to conclude that in this city they were really studying a cross-section of American urban life, different and the differences, rather than the similarities are essential.

Ants Stitch Wounds.
Huge biting ants play an important part in surgery in equatorial South America, according to a report received by the Field Museum from the museum's botanical expedition to the Amazon. In that region there is a variety of ants noted for its strong jaws. When a native suffers a gaping wound they procure some of the biting ants by biting into the two edges of the wound, which draws them together. Then the bodies of the ants are snipped off and the heads are left with the jaws gripping the wound. The Pathfinder.

Our Congressman Has Awakened the Race
By His Reckless Courage, Mr. De Priest Has Aroused the Negro from His Political Sloth.
By KELLY MILLER
The colored man exults in the agitation "only." If he is the member of a white organization, the only Negro who lives in a white block, the only member of his man to enjoy certain honor, distinction, or privilege, bubbles Mr. DePriest is now our only Congressman, and as such he has been paraded, exhibited and exploited from one end of the land to the other. My collection of books on the day when colored Congressmen were thick enough roundabout Washington. If you stumbled over one of the dark you would not apologize to the Negro for not paying any particular attention they did or said. The announcement that a Negro member of Congress would speak, would not attract a greater hearing than the announcement of a temperance lecture in New Jersey.
But how times have changed. Mr. DePriest can fill to overflowing any audience room in any part of the country. He is easily the most popular platform man in the Negro race today. The people long to see, and clamor to hear, him in the East and in the West, as well as in the North and South.
He's Popular Because
He's Courageous.
His popularity does not rest wholly upon the singularity of his position. He is a man of undoubtedly courage and intrepidity. One would not characterize him as a man distinguished for moral courage which breasts ridicule, obloquy, and sum for what is held to be right, like rather as a man of bravery while recks not of physical danger.
Mr. DePriest's bold asseverations always elicit the approval and applau of his people, and especially of political constituency. The more denounces the Southern white people, the louder does the Negro apuaud.
It requires absolutely no moral courage for the Negro in the North to stand up and defend himself, and hundreds miles from the race. But Mr. D. Priest is not afraid to be heard the loss in his den. He would go even to his native state of Alabama and claim his feeling and belief, in face of the dare of the Ku Klu Kua. His indisposition of indisposition. He does not scare.
Courage and discretion are mutually exclusive terms. The better balance of judgment of the Negroes of Alabama is required to save him from the folly of his own raspiness. A visit to Alabama would help him, in feeling, would help result in any good to the race not to our only intreged Negro Congressman; but it would have reactionary political effect in favor of the fortune of Senator Hefflin, his politica antipode.
De Priest and Heflin Alike—with a Difference.
Representative DePriest and Senator Helfin are very much alike—with one essential difference. They are both Republicans, less likely right and Mr. Helfin is regularly wrong. They both dramatize the Negro as an issue in politics—the in the affirmative and the other in the逆向. Mr. Helfin recognizes Helfin and Helfin recognizes DePriest, both because of their resemblances and contrasts. What DePriest says delights his constituency. Chicago has a Negro population. Alabama. If Helfin should engage in one of his harangues in the first Chicago district, DePriest would secure every Negro vote. Chicago would return DePriest in Alabama would return Helfin to the Senate. Our only Congressman has a deepy, reasonable, though unschooled conviction that the Negro will immediately get the rights and privileges under the law. His daintess spirit will not recognize the practical difficulties in the way. He really believes that the American people can be freed from the second and Fifteenth Amendments.
The more unreasoned our beliefs the more ardently are we devoted to them. Where reason counsels caution blind faith urges on. Most reforms have been promulgated by that type of faith.
His Daring and Courage Has Been Contagious.
DoPriest has been of great service to his people by virtue of his daring and reckless courage. Under the counsel of timidity, the race had almost lost hope and spirit, awakens the Negro its political power, and down the land landed the race to rise up and assert its political rights and pro-rogatives. He tells backward Baltimore and lethargic Philadelphia that they should send a Negro representative to Congress. He himself takes no pride in being the "only" Congressman he company. He declares that he
The wish is widely expressed that our only Congressman might be more cautious and circumspect. He is headway with his fellow members if he would fall into line with what he expect of him. He is less anxious for urbanity and his sincerity for surity. But that would not be DePriest. The role which he plays is natural. The only different man would play a different

"We understand that Birmingham is no place for bad Negroes. Well, we un here in 'Harlem,' N.Y. City, want you to know that this is no place for 'white crackers' like you and your Klux friends. If we ever hear of you, landing anywhere within a half mile of Harlem, were coming after

13 LYNCHINGS, SAYS LABOR DEFENSE BODY
International Workers Group Give out List of Mob Deaths
NEW YORK—Calling attention to the increase of lynching in the United States in the past six months, the International Labor Defense this week issued a statement denouncing lynching and the whole lynch law system, and called upon the workers, Negro and white, to intensify the struggle against lynching.
Since January 1, the ILD. points out, there have been thirteen lynchings in the United States, as follows:
January 11-J. D. Ivy, Negro, lynched at Rocky Ford, Mia.
February 1 - Laura Wood, 65-year-old
Negro woman, lynched on the Barun's
Junction. February 3 - Jimmie Levine, Negro,
lynched at Charlotte, NC. February 6 - Nikki Villegas, Negro, lynched at Locust Grove, Ga. February 10 - Wendy Green, Negro, lynched at Wahalle, SC.
April 23-Dave Harris, Negro, lynched at
Rogerdale, Miss.
April 28—John Hodag, white, lynched at Tampa. Fla.
May 7—Clarence Hughes, Negro, lynched
May 9—George Hughes, Negro, lynched at Sherman. Texas.
May 15—George Johnson, Negro, lynched at Sherman. Texas.
June 5—Henry Argo, Negro, lynched at Chichasua. Okla.
June 21—DAN Jenkins, Negro, lynched at Union, S.C.
June 28—Unknown Negro, lynched at Austin, Texas.
This increase wave of lynching says the statement, "is part of the campaign of the ruling class of this country to drive the Negro masses into deeper oppression and slavery—an attempt to prevent them from uniting with the white workers in a common struggle against unemployment and for improved economic conditions."
The statement further reads: "The International Labor Defense will mobilize more intensely and sharply its fight against lynching. It calls upon the Negro workers and the white workers to organize and unite into the I.L.D. and to go forward with a mighty strength that will sweep away completely lynching and the whole lynch law system."

NEW YORK.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in its twenty-first annual session at Springfield, Mass., June 28-July 1, adopted strong resolutions, the substance of which is as follows:
Negro Labor
"No element that has the American population has felt the present economic depression as keenly as the American Negro, and this fact illustrates perhaps better than anything else the nature of our problem. The grandchildren of the slaves have never been able to understand status, and political power in the North, but their economic bondage still fetters them. They form in the mass a great reservoir: of unskilled and semi-skilled labor, in lower wages and less times of prosperity and fired first in days of depression.
Consumers Economic Power
"The attitude of the trade unions continues to be such that it is difficult for Negroes to acquire skill or raise their standards of living and public opinion properly. The line of sheer physical existence. This situation indicates the most important field for unceasing agitation, for more thoughtful education, concerned with the Chicago, New York and elsewhere to use the economic power of Negro consumers in order to open opportunity for wider employment. This movement deserves the co-operation of everyone.
Civil Rights
"There is every indication that the time for a renewed attack on battle lines of the Negro is at hand. It seems certain that the N^A.C.A.P. can launch during the next year in the courts of the nation a widespread battle against the disfranchisement laws and states where disfranchisement laws were passed between 1800 and 1910.
School Fund Discrimination
"... and above all, we are going to attack the discriminatory practices of all the Southern states and even in some of the Northern states, which gives to the already underprivileged Negro child less than half the white child and learns the written and academic elements of education that is given to the none too fortunate white child.
Political Power
"Our triumph in the defeat of Judge Parker, whom President Hoover appointed to the Supreme Court, was due not nly to the sound force of our contention that a Supreme Court justice must be a Democrat, but even more to the weight of our growing political power. Unless, therefore, that political power is used independently and authentically to cast the aid for democracy and against caste and color prejudice, as well as for the larger matters of liberal reform in this country, we can. The Parker v. Johnson case is this for courageous action under the party organization and for independent voting on the part of the Negro regardless of formed party affiliations."
York City was personally conducted by Mr. Cole, and a host of friends and teachers, including Mr. Berammergam. ON MONDAY, July 14th, the 13th Street Branch will hold a public library will celebrate its 25th anniversary. On that afternoon the library will be inside and outside the community. The staff hopes that many will come in, take a look with the library and with the staff. THE ANNUAL RECEPTION, given by the 13th Street Branch of the Public Library, to visit summer school students and their friends will be held this year on July 14th.
LANGSTON HUCHIES has written his first novel, "Not Without Laughter," a story of a Negro girl who is published by Alfred A. Knopf. THE JOURNEYMEN BARBERS' ASSOCIATION made his public appearance without a doubt. Kenneth Reeves and the entertainment committee condemned the book and truly every one present must have had a grand time. A bit of color was added to the appearance of the books. MRS. JAMES WASHINGTON arrived in Boston Thursday, where she will be the guest of her husband in-law, Harold Jackson. MR. AND MRS. ALBERT STEVENES, of Boston, are in the city to visit Mrs. Stevenese, who was injured in an automobile accident. MRS. MARGUERITE K. WATKINS has returned to her home on Carfile Avenue spending several months in New York City.

Heywood's husband on last Saturday a tryout with the RKO people to appear at their Fifty-eighth Street Theatre with a $300 price with hope that the customers like it. If so, the agreement calls for bookings at $1,000 per week. To date, no further news of the outcome has been released. Customers seemed pleased to attend at the first showing of the comic dancer's act.
Bill Robinson, besides retaining his title of the "world's greatest tap dancer," is rapidly piling up appearances, "greatest personal press agent." Imagine a tap dancer stopping the traffic in Times Square at high noon, then walking down the street did last Tuesday. In a hundred yard dash, "Bo" while running backward, outsprinted fast runners, included McAllister, McAllister champ.

The Truth About "Hallelujah"
Southern Cracker Changes Attitude Toward Negro Cast. Nina Mae McKinney's Emotional Display in Baptismal Scene, Wins Over Honey Brown.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the second-installment of a series giving the inside story of "Hallelu-jah." The author, a special AFRO correspondent, was a member of the cast.
Among the many amusing incidents that took place during the filming of "Hallelu-jah" the following may be rated first.
side in a strange, jerking rhythm throwing her arms parallel, opposing site direction. The two arms in Mae, rant, absorbed in the spirit of her nortray, completely oblivious of the crowd, her face transfigured and uplifted in estacy. She moved from side to side, clasping hands above her head, the fire of her strange, spiritual illusion that of dark, mysterious heathenism contending against the vibrant spirit of Christianity. And
In order to make the cotton gin scene, where Zeke and Spunk dispose of the family crop, we were called to go about sixteen miles over into Mississippi. It was on the farm of a notoriously hard-boiled white man, a real "red neck," who the gossips informed us, was a hard taskmaster on whites and blacks alike. It was said that when his employees got into trouble and were locked up he promptly went to the owners and manded the release of "this nigger," and that he went to pronto, every time. Well, with such a startling picture as that in our minds you may be sure we expected something unusual to happen at the gin before the day was gone.
Mississippi Cracker Riled
For a long time all went along as scenely as one could wish. The "big cotton and gin" man stood looking on as wagon after wagon of snow-white cotton rolled past in front of the greedy camera. Then Haynes and McGarrity went through their parts, pausing at intervals to receive directions from Mr. Vidor, who, to the tomary calm manner, encouraging them or silently urging them to rest for a few minutes. Such constrainment for black folks was just too much for the native Mississippi. He stepped out into the path of an approaching wagon and shouted insultingly: "Come on thehe, you niggas."
He then looked at Vidor in utter disgust as if to say, "Watch me and learn how to talk to them." There was absolute quiet and all eyes were focused upon him where he stood in the roadway. He shifted a huge pillow and tobacco, spat, and looked equally and defiantly at the "Hallajah!" crowd his eyes were on. Yes, if he had "Yes, and youil" is "miggers too!" Nobody missed the humor of the situation and we laughed all the way back to Memphis.
Enemy Within
But prejudice rejuvenated its ugly head in our very midst. For a long time talk had been going around that a certain young man on the staff who hailed originally from Atlanta, Georgia, didn't like colored folks and made no pretense of liking them. He spoke to them only when it could not be avoided. As a result, the whole company discussed their work, and they made one big family, but the particular boy stood aloof. I refused for a long time to believe that it was plain, stark naked prejudice that caused him to act in that manner, ascribed his demeanor to mere reticence and untamelling. But he raced across the races. But on the dining car en route to Los Angeles he objected to the waiter seating some of the cast at his table. That threw the fat into the fire. See the image. His life a nightmare for the brief time we were en route and they certainly could have done it, for it is common knowledge: that a Negro can make his environment happy as Heaven or not as entertainers and servants.
I advised against the contemptated campaign, which was to persistently annoy him, the army working in relays. In many cases, he was not willing to work with inherent prejudice and so it proved in this case. He was gradually won over and when the picture was completed nobody was better liked than he. In fact he was the most popular in the midst of the "Halleluja" company. His chicery, sincere greeting rang across the lot every morning and each person carried a wristband. He was close of the day. This in marked contrast to the conduct of several who had been congenial, even familiar on location in Memphis, but who became as strangers once Hollywood was reached. He must be to learn from the two cases.
Haynes Almost Killed
There is one scene that Daniel Haynes will never forget, the one in the saw mill. During the scene he had a very narrow escape from death, the huge saw missing him. He was not drilled into his danger did not strike him until hours afterward, then the shock completely unnerved him and he walked for hours to regain self control. Another trying scene was that of the swamp, Fountainle and Haynes stalked through the water waits for hours.
Nina or Honey?
The announcement that Nina Mae McKinney was replacing Honey Brown as leading lady caused wide discussion. It was clear from the beginning that she was not going to enact the role of "Chick," even before Nina Mae appeared on the scene. C.e. has but to see Honey Brown make a gesture, toss her head, brouille herself, and then she is the modern, sophisticated type of girl who differs not one whit from the white. While to see Nina Mae swish her fringed skirt, roll her eyes, or quarrel in hot, unreasoning anger recognize the deeply elemental nature.
Although other competitive scenes were shot, it was felt by all the cast that the baptised scene shot in Memphis was real. The actors, as aspirants for the honors. That Sunday morning, cast and extras were carried to the baptised ground by bus loads. In a deep cup-like inclusion lay a benchtop, with a high steep banks fringing the river on the opposite side, and as far upstream as one could see the water was shaded by large, drooping willows growing on either bank. It was a bit crevice in an air of realism prevailed the "set."
This despite the fact that the "extras," candidates for baptism, were busy putting as much heat inside as possible in the room, and chilly water. All was ready, long lines of white robed "converts" stood waiting. Haynes, the " evangelist," was waist deep in the stream. Deaconess, who was a teacher to the water's edre, two to conduct them to the minister, and one to assist in the immersion. Honey Brown was tried out first. She was instructed to love relentless culminating in frenzied shouting as she passed the camera for a close-up. She seemed unable to get the spirit of it. She rose to her toes and stood side to side, claped her hands, but all were so many gestures, nothing more. She passed from the scene.
Nina Catches Spirit
Then there stood revealed of the most remarkable scenes of the day, bent and awaving from side to
side in a strange, jerking rhythm, throwing her arms parallel in opposite direction to her body. Behind her stood Nina Mae, rapt, absorbed in the spirit of her portrayal, completely oblivious of the crowd, her face transfigured and uplifted in ecstasy. She moved from side to side, clasping her hands above her head. The two figures created a strange, spiritual, mysterious lusion, that of dark, mysterious heathenism contending against the vibrant spirit of Christianity. And the two rhythms, with the arc described by the abrupt movement of the end of the war, gave the effect of a huge pendulum swinging through the centuries, ticking off endless ages.
Mr. Vidor paled with excitement, almost too awed to signal the camera-man, But Gordon Avil, ever alert, was already on the job and the cam-er, was grinding away. Then Nina was led out and hundreds of voices took up the traditional baptismal hymn, "Carry me to the Water," she took several uncertain steps, screamed, arms swing as it on binges until the elbows touched, and she felt to her knees shouting and praising God. It was a moving, a sight and there was plenty of atmosphere in the way of life, and sobs for it was too real to be mistaken.
We were all anxious for the matter of leading lady to be decided, for this situation had caused a stir. The only reason the cast took sides, some for Nina some for Honey and Mr. Vidor himself held out stubbornly by choice to prove beyond a doubt that Nina Mae was the very type required by his story.

LI'L ESTHER, DANGER
STILL HIT IN EUROPE
Child Star Leaves Berlin for Engagement at Theatre in Oslo, Sweden.
BERLIN-(AFRO BUREAU) — Little Esther, who has the reputation of being the highest paid child artist in the world has left Berlin for Oslo, Sweden, where she is to play at the Victor Bernaus Theatre. She will then return here to open up at the Kabaret de Komiker.
Little Esther has been a sensation in Western Europe. In 1929 she played for six weeks at the Wintergarten, here, where she was the big 'hit', and returned here for a short stay in May of this year.
In Stockholm recently she was the chief attraction at the China Theatre. The next day King Gustave of Sweden, for whom she and danced in 1929, recognized her as the Queen of Chicago, on the Exposition Grounds, and lifting his hat, the King said to her in English: "Here is Little Esther. I am very glad to see you back in Stockholm." Last year while Little Esther was in Stockholm, the proprietor of the Brenda Tomton, who had been in America, refused to serve her, her mother, and her manager, Sydney Garner. Without a single exception, the newspapers of the city condemned her. The chief spokesman who was present, to show his disapproval, invited the whole party to his house.
Riot in Spain
The Nya Daylight Alehanda, leading daily of Stockholm (May 14, 1930) speaking of this incident said after Little Esther's triumphant return from Spain:
"Little Esther was such a riot in Spain and became a popular with accented persons that she was accepted by persons of the highest standing, including some of the big military men. One day the little Nego girl was invited to tea at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and she as a little artist but as a little princess. Soldiers were standing to attention when she was with His Excellency, Primo Rivera, who was so charismatic personality that he could not resist impressing a big kiss on her left elbow.
"In Seville, Little Esther attended a bull-fight and she was soon recognized in the big crowd which gave her three cheers. Marcelo Rivera, a father of fathers in Spain, after making his respects to the President, came right over to where the little star was sitting and tossed his hat to her, saying he was going to kill the bulb in her honor. Now who does Branda Tomton think of all?"
Only Eleven Now
Little Esther's rise to stardom has been phenomenal. She is only eleven years of age, and she was dashing the Charleston with other children on the sidewalks of Chicago.
Since then she has played in most of the leading theatres in West Europe, including de Paris, Empire Theatre of Paris, Two weeks ago, the Paris-Midi carried a special article about her, with a picture. She earns $800 a week, and so many offers that it is impossible to fill them. She has also been filmed.
In addition to her manager, Sydney Garner, her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jones, of Chicago, travel with While in the Hall, Chicago, Miss appeared on the same hall, Chicago.
Duncan a Progressive Conductor. Two Get Scholarships. Ambassadors Acclaimed. Young Musicians Score.

PRESTON DUNCAN, dynamic leader of the International Band, is one of Baltimore's most progressive conductors. Mr. Duncan one of the younger leaders to begin with, is quite proficient as a cornetist; he has also made a careful study of the principles of hand conducting and has assembled in his organization, a goodly number of well disciplined must-
The International Band is at home whether it be playing popular dance music, whether it be on parade, or whether it be performing on the concert platform, and much of its musical efficiency and its popular appeal is due to the efforts of its unassuming but efficient dancers. The musicians are public spirited for they have on many occasions given their services, time and talent gratuitously for worthy community enterprises.
Two Students Get Scholarships
Musically inclined Baltimore youths of the Negro group are continuing to achieve high attainment at many of the highest musical institutions in the country. The latest local products to win honor at outstanding music schools, are Mark O. Fax and Annie Wiggs Brown, both of whom are products of our local public school system, Mr. Wiggs, and Mr. Syrue University, has succeeded in winning a scholarship for superior attainment in piano, harmony and counterpoint, which will assure his musical success. Mr. Fax is the first freshman of our group to win a place on a major recital program at Syrue. Miss Brown, now a student at Musical Art Institute, New York University, has received a scholarship in piano, voice, and the attendant theoretical branches. Miss Brown is spending the summer in New York studying. Both of these young musicians have received honors and it is hoped that their examples will inspire other younger musicians to greater effort and endeavor.

Afro Radio Hints
WHY A CHOKE IS USED
A choke consists of an iron core with a coil, of a large number of turns of wire, wound around one leg. The electro-magnetic action of a choke is such that it will violently resist any change in the amount of current which follows through it. The choke is most important, to resistance is offered to its flow. As reason as a change in the current occurs—whether this change be an increase or a decrease does not matter—the magnetic field of the current changes. The choke therefore, finds a place in the filter circuit, receiving the current after it has been rectified into a pulsating direct current. By taking the pulsating direct current, the filter delivers a source of power suitable for the receiver.
THE CARNIVAL
Case You Don't Know—
not because he's a prominent
Maryland minister, but because he
is not as good a sheik he is as a
pit pounder, does it become necessary to chronicle here this little inci-
It seems that a certain divine, who should know better, let it be known to a female member of his flock, that she was the designated lamb, that should be carried close in his bosom. It may seem strange, but the lady in question had her eyes so dimmed by her love for the elephant sir that she failed to see that what he was really after was her bank roll. Yes, in-
deed, by bit, as horses might say in their conversation, the frocked gent gained the good sister's confidence, and when he asked her for the loan of a few dollars, it was granted. There were other requests, and they in turn were granted, with the suit that the cleric had extracted nearly one hundred berries from the pastor-loving lady, who already had a husband of her own to love in her spare time. And then the amorous divine made a sooth-lady. He attempted to moneyed lady for a new girl friend who didn't have quite as much money, but oh, boy, did she have S. A.? Clara Bow could take lessons from her. But as we come to the end of our story, we see the jilted and now orphaned dame taking her preacher to court. His testimony that had been "given" the woman fail-to impress the bewhiskered magistrate who presided over the court as a result he has been ordered to return many of it.
But what gives more color to the story is the fact that the new girl friend has quit him, now that his supply of money has been cut off, and his spouse, who suspected him all of the time, now has an excuse for overtime use of her rolling pin. Moral: Stick to your text.
One Every Minute
Levi Hubert, the news scribe, is credited by Frank Burd with the following yarn about Ha-Hahlem characters.
Her racket is being white. She has been around Harlem about two years. A plump, sophisticated Jewish girl about 18 years old, with pronounced Semetic features. She once tried to obtain employment as a "hello girl" at one of the local telephone company. Having a strictly western taste for features, however she couldn't see such a schnozzle in their office. Now she refuses to work at all.
"Posing as a Communist, when she needs a meal she smiles at any one of her male sepia acquaintances and he produces a dollar. She needs taxi fare and another of Hershey-hued lads is her salvation and was asked what she gives in return. She was amazed, Return! Why nothing, of course.
"I walk down Seventh Avenue with them; I go in 'Hot Shot's; I joke with 'em and smoke their cigs. Isn't it that?2? she agreed that these boys, from Dixie-land, actually walking down the street in broad daylight with an may femme. Now they know Why Harlem is called the Promised Land!
"They have to pay, so she goes Hinesomely along, taking what she and giving nothing She's white. Isn't that enough? Heheheh!"
Remember Me
It happened in a Pennsylvania town, Steelton, to be exact, and the date was not so long ago.
The preacher had just finished im- mersing more than a score of harp
candidates in the none-too-warm waters and had waded back to the bank where a few frenzied souls were waiting loudly. He then proceeded to deliver a short semen on "Sin," and he had finished there was silence. Suddenly, out of the stillness, came the voice of a sister. "Brother pastor," she queried, "is it any sin for a person to try they luck on playing the number?" she told you," the flock leader answered, "when you hit, please remember me. Old 300 paid off last Satday and I missed it, yes suh." * * * *
You Should Know—
Time and again, otherwise skeptical people have said: "Playing the numbers is the only square gambling that there is. There is no way for any crooked work to enter there, because the bankers must pay off on the clearing house figure over which they have no control." But did it ever occur to these same souls that the New York clearing house might have some control over the bankers? If not why is it that the barons will not pay off Pittsburgh clearing house figures or on the United States treasury balances? To get one to give you two to one odds on the numbers from either of these places. Yet he will pay fm 600 to 700 to 1 on the New York figures. Did it ever occur to you why?

LOS ANGELES.—During the past
two weeks there has been no large
number of colored actors and extras
in the current productions, the
are expecting pictures of work as
as proposed pictures including
colored are fully prepared for shootin-
During last week Richard Howard and Robert Dandridge were at First National for a conference, as were Florence Morrison, Mildred Washington, Felix Jackson, Glarence Muse, John Larkins, George Reed, Spencer Bell, and Raymond Turner.
At R.K.O. were E. Johnson and others.
At First National working are Slater, Williams, Harper, and Harrison now in their second week.
At M.G.M. they still are re-writing "Great Day," which will use large numbers of colored actors and singers.
At Tiffany "His Last Show" is almost ready for a private show.
Our "hidden jewel" is Miss Mildred White. Talk about undiscovered jewels. She refuses to be "discovered." Many a girl would violin like she can when she wishes to. Yet she never picks up her Stradivarius from one month to the other.
Once last year at a dance at Masonic Hall, just for mischief she climbed up on the band stand and taking how and instrument from under her, to be the band leader. A difficult task number. Milly is originally from Memphis and one of its best families.
Doris Garison, one of the well-known and well-liked "Slick," will soon be a topnotcher in the ranks of entertainers. Just now she is a member of Grant's little revue that "stopped 'em" at the Marathon. She has everything to get her over. Pretty figure, pep, personality, a good voice, and natural dancing ability.
Louie Cole, whose name means popularity, claessy clothing, talent and business hustle all in one is dividing his movie and concert career with a new big venture as manager of a gasoline service station. Louie has a splendid baritone voice.
Albertine Pickens has been winning all with her sweet voice and vivacious manner in the stage play, "Under a Virginia Moon" at the Vine Street Theatre in Hollywood. She is "Effortless."
Glorence Muse, as "Jackson" had another opportunity to display his wonderful talent and resonant voice.
SAY OTHELLO CLOSED AT LONDON THEATRE
SAY OTHELLO CLOSED AT LONDON THEATRE
White Writer Launches Shafts of Criticism at Robeson's Portrayel.
"FAILS TO SATISFY"
Shakesperian Drama Had Auspicious Opening.
A report from London says that "Othello," with Paul Robeson as the star, closed at the Savoy Theatre there, last week.
LONDON.—More than one month after he had been acclaimed as one of the greatest stars to appear at a local theatre, Paul Robeson, star of "Othello," finds himself the target of adverse criticism from a British critic.
Writing of the Negro star, John Anderson says:
"Foremost of the world's recent Othellos, Paul Robeson, who is playing the part here at the Savoy, makes the man at least an honest black-moor, full of color and throaty utterances. When he looses the profundities of his voice upon the Bard's iambic pentameters, the lines roll with sonorous magnificance, and when hovering with homicidal jealousy over Desdemona's bed, he says, "Can ne'er the light relupture," the Savoy shakes with tremulous reverberation.
But "Othello" is not, alas! an opera to be sung with anybody's voice, in spite of Shaw and his notions of Shakespeare. Hence this is the Othello of the ages, the ultimate moor and everlasting interpretation, appear lonely and disconcerted, as if they didn't "now the difference between a mammy song and one of the drama's great tragedies.
Falls to Satisfy
For, visually and otherwise, Mr. Robeson fails to satisfy. He lends great power and savage passion to the scenes, but his gestures are uncouth and his attitudes grotesque, suggesting that the distinguished general was not a pretty wooper so much as a Dixie boy in handsome customery. When he sets off for Cyprus, charged with
"VELVET BROWN BABIES"
weightly affairs by the Venetian grandees, he seems an innocent strategist upon a Harlem masquerade, ripe for betrayal. Hi, naive Othello, indeed, though all askew itself, justifies a little bit of Maurice Brown's Boy Scout Iago, an Iago that Boy Scout invades, and indicates that only a dimwit could have trusted him in the first place. For any Othello to trot
himself about the stage murmuring "honest, honest Iagou," in the face of Mr. Brown's eccentric villains, merely suggests that Otello is either blind or mentally deficient.
Unlike Booth and Salvini
Some one has said—and if they haven't, here goes—that no actor should play Otello until he has learned to play Iagou, or, as Ed Wynn might say, terra firma.

Booth and Salvini used to alternate in the roles, and critical tradition still rings with their achievements. The strong alliance between the two which makes Iago's deceit possible can be understood only in the light of both characters, and it seemed to me that Mr. Browne and Mr. Robeson had never been introduced.

and she goes to sleep and when she awakes it is late afternoon. She hurries out of the church, but at the door meets the handsome, young pastor, Rev. Hugh Godfrey. He is immediately captivated by her extraordinary beauty and charm and promises to help her, inviting her into the parsonage
NOW. GO ON WITH THE STORY
heartless enough to marry you?"
"But, Verna," he protested, his voice strained with emotion. "Tm crazy about you. I want you so badly. Verna. I will give up everything; work my fingers to the bone to give you everything you want. Only don't turn me down, Verna, dear!" "Sorry, Hugh," she said, feeling uncomfortable under the ordeal, "but I just can't do it." "Very well." he muttered in a resigned, hurt tone. "I guess well'd better be getting back to town." They did not exchange a word on the way in. Verna hated such scenes, but she knew that she would always be having them. That was the penalty she had to pay for being so comely and charming. Hugh feltfully enraged, insulted, but more determined than ever that Verna should marry him. He let her out at the Van Dyke residence and drown on after a rather good day." Verna let herself in and went up to her room. She sat down on the edge of her bed and pondered over life and the events of the evening.
It was plain that she was getting nowhere in Kalesburg. To be sure, she had a job that was paying her twice as much as she received in Norrishburg, but there was little prospects of her being able to do much better. She could, of course, always hunt up Donald Baxter and get a job in his cabinet, but it would be embarrassing to continue as a member of Rev. Godfrey's church after he had proposed to her and she had refused. Then for the first time, she notice a letter propped up on her bureau. It was addressed to her and she noted with some pleasure that the handwriting was her mother's, but the letter it was going on at home. It read:
My dearest Verna:
We are all well and hope you are the same. We all miss you very much and wish you were back here with us. Your father and I are going to be getting along all right. Dick Colvin comes over almost every night and all he can talk about is you. That boy sure is smart. He is pretty soon he is coming over there to Kaleshbur and get him a good job and marry you. Like as not he'll be over in a couple of weeks. You love a good girl and don't get in a mischief. Don't listen to none of them there slick-tongue city fellows. 'cause they don't mean nobody no good. We are all praying for your success.
So Dick Colvin was coming to Kalsberg; Verna was very thoughtful as she slowly prepared for bed. What should she do? She couldn't stand Dick Colvin and his rough country ways, yet, she eventually would meet her. Then off in Norrishburg, begging her every day to marry him. Such a situation would be intolerable. It would be better for her to leave now, but where would she go? She only possessed twenty dollars but would have fifteen more to the money. That ought to be enough to carry her out of the state and keep her unmarried another job.
"The rest of the week Verna did he work mechanically while she thought about her impending departure, wondering which way to go and how soon. Some said conditions were better farther North. She knew that opportunities for an enterprising and ambitious colored girl were better farther North. Her mind was really set on New York, but she was even afraid to admit to herself. She felt that that she be taking too much on herself; that one needed so much money to even keep alive in New York. It did not quite occur to her that scores of thousands of Negroes were doing well there; she, like most Southern Negroes, believed all of the myths about terrible conditions in Harlem. Anc. yeah, also knew that it was that she belonged. Then she smiled as she realized she didn't have the carefare to New York, even if she wanted to go there.
Un Jumps Donald Again
As she stepped off the street car one night coming home from work, she was startled and surprised to see Donald Baxter's car parked in front of her rooming place. She wondered what it meant. Her first impulse was to get away from there as fast as possible, but then she realized that if anyone should run to be Baxter for he had not tried to kidnip her? So, plucking up courage, she walked uply up the steps and opened the iron door door. The man stood Donald, immanuel as ever, talking earnestly with Charity Van Dyke, the oldest daughter of the family, a freshman
A month had passed since the day and be the easiest thing in the Internet Reverend Godfrey, and she a hurried about her tasks at her service place, she thought of all that had transpired since that time. She was rooming with one of the most colored families in town, the ward to get Hugh Godfrey to proclaim Dykes; she had joined the Reverend Godfrey's church and became a member of the church; he was head over heels in love with her, and she had saved twenty dollars of her
And yet she was not satisfied. Kileshburg offered greater opportunities than Norrishburg, it was true, but she saw little prospect of getting all of the things she wanted by staying there. She instinctively knew that it poe to her because the fact that she is in love, shone in his soft eyes; but she had no desire to end her eats as a preacher's wife. That would be all work and very little glory. She tapped her little head and made a defiant grimace as she thought of it. That night there was choir practice. Afterwards, Rev. Godfrey asked her to go for a drive with him in his Ford coupe. He looked strained and his eyes had a far-off appearance, giving evidence of some inner belly.
her. Godfrey's Mother Disapproves
For a month now he had been inquired with Verna, wanting to cupher her in his arms, to marry her; yet he had been restrained by judge of the fact that she was exactly of his class. She asked about her expect what she would him. He would not have held any great obstacle but he was afraid of what his congregation would eat.
Already there was jealousy evidenced by some of the women because of Verna's beauty and because he was friendly with her. Some of the gossips had even begun to circulate ugly rumors. Rev. he had heard them and had silently raged. His mother, noting his interest in the girl, had warned him
"You don't know a single thing about that strange girl," she had said that very day at luncheon, "and yet here you are talking about marrying her. Why, she's nothing but a wait. Sleeping in churches! Coming to town, with strange men! And she hasn't had any proper schooling. You a minister, can't afford to have a such wife." I don't care what you say, mother he replied, "I want her, I'm in love with her and I'm going to marry her if she'marry me." He had never quarreled with his mother before. Always they had been on the most excellent terms. He admired and respected her and it hurt him to the heart to cross her. He had to reluctantly agree that, he spent all of his time trying to become a good minister, he knew her way of making a living. Suppose he should lose his job because of the jealousy and joblessness of the congregation? What could he be? That these thoughts it was no wonder Hugh Godfrey was strangely silent until long after they reached the suburbs.
A Desperate Declaration of Love
Suddenly, as if with new resolution, he stopped in a sheltered cove, turned out the lights, took her two slender, little hands in his, and, fixing a soulful gaze upon her, began to pour out his heart.
"I want you, dear," he exclaimed "more than anything else in the world. I'll give up everything for you, my mother my friends, my profession, if you will consent to marry me. Will you?"
Verna lowered her eyes and thought swiftly. She did not want to hurt High Godfrey. He had been so kind and helpful, and yet there was no denying the fact that she did not love him. She liked him tremendously, of course, for his manly quality, but there is a wide gulf between liking and right. Right then she didn't believe she loved any man in the world. She, young as she was, had enough experience to view all men around her.
"Lasten,augh," she replied, "I wouldn't dream of trying to 'string' you and I don't want to hurt you. I think you'd better get some more acceptable to your mother and your congregation. I did not hug, and I appreciate it but I just don't think enough of you to marry you."
The Disappointing Refusal
"I have ambitions, Hugh," she continued. "I want to get somewhere and make a name and wealth for make before I settle down to any married life. Most wives just become married of their husbands. I don't want that. I want to be something in my own right. I want to have all of the things of life and be able to do as I please. How could I do that as your wife, assuming I was

Then suddenly he wheeled about and pointing his finger in Verna's face, hissed. "Till get you for this if it's the last thing I ever do. I'll make you suffer for this."
"How did you know him?" asked Miss Van Dyke, jealously, her eyes flashing. In a nearby college, and now home for the holidays.
The two jumped apart as Verna came in, but she had seen enough to know that they must be pretty thick. It amused Verna and she felt that she was the mistress of the situation, since it was incredible to suppose that Charity Van Dyke knew what kind of a man Donald was.
The Lovers Quarrel
"Hello Don!" she said cheerily. "I didn't know, you were acquainted with anyone here in this neighborhood. . . Hello Charity!"
"Why—why, well, how do you do? exclaimed Don, bewildered.
"Oh, Donald was kind enough to bring me to Kalesburg," Verna in formed her, hugely enjoying the scene. She had already told the Van Dyke family about Donald with out, however, mentioning his name.
"So," screamed Charity, turning a Don, "you are the one that fooled Verna here. Oh, I'm so glad I found you out in time. Verna, I was going to elope with him and get married."

"Now, look here Charity," said I offered her a job in my cabaret. "So you DO own a cabaret, then," shouted Charity. "You told me that it was all a lie about your being an underworld character.

Verna Wanders Again
Verna felt that with this latest development she could not stay in Kalesburg any longer. It certainly would be uncomfortable there for her with Rev. Godfrey, Dick Colvin and Donald Baxter all annoying her. The girl employed next door to her had a fello, who was working in the West Virginia coal fields. Money was said to be plentiful there, and she might do well there herself, working for some of the wealthy families, so she decided to go.
That Tuesday night when she got paid, she went back to the Van Dyke home, got her little bundle of effects, and leaving a note on her bureau, left the place forever. She believed that was the best way to leave. If no one knew where she was, she would not be bothered and could concentrate on getting the things she
Soon she was at the railroad station, had her ticket and was sitting in the colored coach. How strange was life, she thought.

Baffling Murders
THE most entertaining moments can be spent in following clever, well constructed detective stories with plenty of suspense. They make the blood tingle as well as furnish the mind with delightful action in following the unexpected maneuvers of arch criminals. Gruesome crimes and the most ingenious tricks provide the unusual thrills of "Baffling Murders." It will be genuine pleasure to read the clean-cut, nonchalant, true murder mysteries related by Hubert Holcomb, master detective.
This is an exclusive Illustrated Feature Section feature provided for your entertainment. Look forward each week to "Baffling Murders."
Holcomb questioned. "Absolutely . . . and I am greatly alarmed!"
At that moment there were sounds of footsteps out in the hall. Simmons answered the letters up and slipped them behind him. Two masculine voices reached their ears. "Everything is all set," the finer one said. "You will receive them in the downstairs drawing room, Wilkins. . . And be careful, the entertainer's upstairs are to be a surprise!"
THE SIMMONS MURDER CASE
By BROWNING STREAT
ONCE again the three of us, Holcomb, Miles, and myself, had gathered together in our now beloved "criminal laboratory." Certainly if you had been one of us, you could never have recalled this vacation at Eagle Rest, Virginia, without also remembering this particular corner on the broad north veranda. It was dark, and quiet, and comfortable—just the place for a former detective, a writer, and a business man to discuss crime!
On this night there was again much discussion anime crime and criminals, with a marked slant, toward the more daring cases. Miles had acquired a method of "steaming Mr. Holcomb up" as he termed it, which simply called for a disagreement with certain of the former detective's pet convictions; the more deep-seated ones. This method Miles used again tonight. Subtly, of course, but it served its purpose.
"Gentlemen," Holcomb suggested at last, "let's abandon theory for fact. The daring criminal IS usually partly insane. The Simmons murder case will prove that. It is, as you shall see, a fine example of the type of crime we have discussed, the type of deed that we perform communicate the strain of plotting. ... Ah—now shall I talk turkey? ... By all means!" we cried. He settled back and began this magnificent tale. The result was to be expected—we found it easy to vision.
Proceeding ponderously, after the fashion of a member of the German Imperial Guard, the Simmons butler led Hubert Holcomb across the richly furnished reception room and then up the highly polished stairs. At an open door on the second floor he paused and "ahem-ed" discreetly "Mr. Hubert Holcomb calling, sir," he announced stiffly, stepping aside. Holcomb passed into the library, Montgomery Simmons arose from a great chair and came forward smiling, hand extended. The butler did a stiff round-about-face and tramped silently away.
"So glad you have arrived," Mr. Simmons declared. "You will have a seat?"
"Thanks."
"I'd wear a?"
"Well," yes, yes.
"Manufactured especially for me," Simmons smiled, "the exclusive Cuban filler."
Holcomb lighted the cigar, indulged in several full inhalations and then spoke in a very low voice: "Chief Roggerty tells me that you expect trouble here tonight," he said. "Shall we—weah—down to brass tacks?" "Oh, yes, yes, to be sure," Simmons agreed. "I must explain that the guests arrive." And he arrose and made a careful Inspection of the door . . . and the two partly opened windows.
The detective regarded him admiringly. Immaculate in formal evening dress, Simmons was tall, dark and smooth of complexion, scarcely more than thirty-two—a bachelor. Well-shaped face and strong cheek looked out at you through highly polished gold-rimmed nose spectacles; very wealthy, the sort of man one would naturally expect to be enthusiastic about polo or golf—matheatrical theatrics, even.
Mr. Simmons came back across the room and seated himself again. A moment he sat thus, compressing his lips and frowning, he he leaned over and began to whisper.
"It is about Raymond," he said—"my younger brother. I am greatly worried over the fellow. I have reason to fear.
Precisely at that moment there came sounds of rapid footsteps mingled with light song and laughter. Quickly the two men sat back in their chairs. At the same time, a young woman—and, gracious, how beautiful—came into view, hesitated at the door, then, as the two men hastened to their feet, came breezing into the room, a delicate scent of violets preceding her.
"Patricia Stantan!"
"Hello there! Mom!" she cooed; "couldn't know why? . . . Weil, Aunt Cairla pointed out that if this gown had wings attached to it, I'd nothing more nor less than an angel. So I just HAD to get out at once. Pretty good excuse, huh "
And then she filled the room with mischievous laughter that was not unlike distant bells.
"Which," Simmons roared, "establishes your dear Aunt as a full-fledged—ah—exterior decorator. . . How's that!"
They laughed; the two men and the beautiful young woman.
In her home Holcomb was introduced. He had not taken his eyes off of her. Here was real beauty—a lively person, her fashionly slim body gowned in a fluffy material that seemed lighter than air. Her color was a warm brown; her hair, long and crimpy, was parted in the middle and brushed briskly down over her ears, Madonna fashion, and spun into a silken ball at the nape of her gracefully curved neck. And those eyes.
"Where's Raymond?" she inquired suddenly.
Monty Simmons laughed. "You will find the young man upstairs in conference with the florist, the caterer, the musicians—Say!"
She had mischievously pulled his ear and vanished.
Laughing, the two men took to the chairs again.
"My brother's flancee," Mr. Simmons explained.
"Most charming!"
Simmons agreed, and then lapsed into a groan. "Look here, Holomoo" he bent forward and whispered, glancing at the great grand
"By all means!" we cried.

father clock across the room. "It's nearly eight; I must explain this quickly. My brother, I fear, has forced himself into ... difficulties. He apparently has been socializing much more than I suspected. I have never been so nervous that, over a period of several months, he has been receiving letters from a person who calls herself Lillian Pope, presumably much below his station. Now, if it were a matter of money—but Raymond positively refuse to disclose her address, in spite of the fact that since the newspaper announcement of his engagement, Miss Irene Miss Irene have been downright threatening; alarming. Herc, take a look at them yourself."
From a cabinet smoker Simmons took a rather bulky little packet of letters and passed them over to Holcomb. The rubber band was removed and an inspection began. The contents of the first one made the detective whistle softly. About ten of them, each proved to have been mailed to the Simmons address from within the confines of the city, with postmarks on the envelopes dating back as far as three months or more. "He keeps them," Simmons whispered again, "hid in his rooms. It was only by accident that I discovered them. No, he is not aware tha. I am in possession of them . . . I don't think. Here, this is the one that came today"
Holcomb molten his lips in a azement. The few pencil-printed words read:
I HAVE PLEASED WITH YOU I HAVE CRIED. I HAVE BEGGED, TONIGHT I GOING TO MAKE YOU PAY.

At Last, an Unbreakable Record
THE MUSICIAN
Not since Henry Ford announced his new model car has a commercial product attracted so much attention as was given a new type phonograph record on its introduction recently. It was offered in scores of retail establishments never before featuring musical goods. The unusual properties of the record, and its unique series of outlets piqued the curiosity of local residents, musicians, dresses or fruit, or to have their shoes shined, left stores with records under their arms.
The new disc is the first commercial application of durium, a new chemical substance discovered recently by Dr. Hal T. Beans, professor of chemistry at Columbia University. Radical improvements made possible by the use of this substance in the disc are expected to revolutionize the phonograph record industry, for the new records can be bent like cardboard and are shatter-proof. Because of their unbreakable qualities, the records sell like magazines, a new issue being offered once each week at all stores handling newspapers and magazines.
In appearance, the record is the same size as ordinary discs, but is amber in color. It is the thickness of light cardboard, and is surfaced with durium on one side. It can, on the other, be hammered on a flat surface without shattering, or can be scratched without impairing the tone of the disc without impairing a match applied to the durium surface leaves only a black mark, whereas the old-fashioned record would melt and warn under such treatment.
While the standard seventy-five cent record requires time to harden when bein made, durium hardens immediately on application of heat. As a result, six of the new records can be stamped out at a time from metal discs at the speed of a printing press. Record making will be speeded up by the new process until production is one hundred times faster than by the old method, its discoverer claims. This speed of production allows sale of the record at one-fifth the established price, he

*Holcomb questioned.*
"Absolutely . . . and I am greatly alarmed!"
At that moment there were sounds of footsteps out in the hall. Simmons gathered the letters up and slipped them behind him. Two masculine notes reached them. "Are you in it?" the time one said, "You will receive them in the downstairs drawing room, Wilkins. . . And be careful, the entertainer, upstairs are to be a surprise!"
"Very good, sir."
Raymond Simmons appeared in the library doorway and paused, in formal evening dress also, a tall, brown, handsome young man.
"Oh, beg pardon."
Monty Simmons jumped hastily to his feet. "Not at all, Raymond," he said. "I'm glad you came in. Have a seat; we're going to have, this thing out right now."
From a study in correct politeness, Raymond's fine face suddenly degenerated into that of a sneer.
"You are, eh?" he said. His full lips now compressed tightly, his eyes mirroring a slumbering resentment, he came forward and sank languidly into the vacant chair. Monty sat down again.
"This, he said after a moment, 'I deserve Holoomb of the police' department. I have deemed it best, Raymond—"
The younger man interrupted rudely, holly. "I have told you, Monty," he said angrily, "once, twice, and now for the last time—I will have positively no intrusion into my private affairs!"
"But, Raymond!"
He ignored Monky and turned heatedly to Holcomb. "I must ask you, sir, he said, "to leave immediately. I resent this. The real——"
Whatever the angry young man was about to say remained forever unfinished; for, left the light on the room in pitch darkness. At the same time a biting flame of fire reached out from the direction of the window and barked spitefully. Monty Simmons screamed. Raymond groaned. Holcomb had hurled himself across to the window ... Shouts ... Gasps ....
When it was all over, they found a man's body sprawled on the floor—and he was dead. . . .
AT THIS POINT in Hubert Holcomb's narration of the Simmons Keder Case there was a pause. Our detective-entertainer got to his feet and started banging the bowl of his nine against the rail.
"Can you beat that!" he exclaimed.
"Murder committed right under
your nose," M.I.I. and I marveled.
"Oh, no, no! Holocaust exploded.

Williams and Tucker, first and second basemen, respectively, of the Smith University team, Coleman, a pitcher from the Charlotte Hornets, are expected to be on hand. Burgin, former third baseman of Darby (Phoenix). Phantoms, to be shown, are the hokc corner.

The Lincoln Giants won five of six games played over the week-end, taking a adobleheader from the Black Sox in the first 7-6 scores on Friday, and splitting with them on Saturday, winning the first, 13 to 4, and dropping the second, 14 to 6. On Sunday, the Lincoln defeated the Cuban Stars in two games by the scores of 7 to 6 and 8 to 4. The team was down with four scattered hits in the first game if the series, while Yokely and Hayes twirled for the Baltimore boys. The final score was 10-9, and the feature was the wonderful selding of "Fats" Jenkins.

Two scores were made off the inning, and the settled down in the following a total of only five hits for the Baltimore Black Sox, while the Lincoln Giants made 14, including two home-runs by Charlie Smith. The final score of this game was 13-4 in favor of the Lincoln Giants.
Dixon Is Hero
The final game of this series was a real thriller. Yokley, who had the ball before, came back to check the heavy batting of the Lincoln Giants, and defeated them, 5-0. He was one of the game. He not only made some wonderful catches in left field but he drove out two home-runs and was responsible for 4 of his 14 saves.
In the ninth inning, Luther Fargell went in to ninth-hit for Connie Reector. He drove a long hot liner to right field and Scrip Killen the fans by the fence. He fenced the fence. Lee's long arms and a leap into the air at the right moment, prevented the ball from going into the stands as a home-run.

They are very scarse on the American turf. Young Simpson seems determined to win other races and to bring back the laurels won by such famous riders as Isaac Murphy, Pike Burns, William Walker, Lonnie Clayton, Winkeld, and others. After many years the record of a colored jockey was equalized in the winning of the Kentucky Derby.

OU may have been greatly surprised when you received the news that Young Jack Thompson, the world's welterweight champion, was badly beaten by Young Corbett out in California on Independence Day, but there were any number of people (this writer among 'em) who were not so greatly upset by being from the coast.

Close friends of the champion have let it be known that Sir

Jack, he learned something from Dundee, and signed for the fight

brief resting sleep. It seems that so many of our athletes fail to regard the ordinary common-sense rules of training. They seem to forget that being an athlete and being a sport are two entirely separate things and will not mix successfully. It is true that Thompson does not lose his drawing power by his loss to Corbett, who, by the way, had twice beaten him, yet, if he doesn't watch his step in these non-title bouts he will be a sorry champion when called upon to defend his
title.
I talked with Al Brown, the bantamweight champion, Friday night, and it didn't take me long to see why he is in the condition that he is today. Brown, his handlers tell me, abhors dissipation because he knows what it will do. Wiry, yet broad-shouldered, the lanky ringman, who is the fashion plate of Harlem, is just as excellent a specimen in the squared circle. He is in condition and keeps in condition.

Burgin, a youngster formerly with the Darby Phantoms, has also joined the local club.
With these additions, the Black Sox hope to swing back into their old form and the coming of the Lincoln Giants is the Sunday will find Frank Warfield and his men on edge. The New Yorkers and the Black Sox are in the midst of a twelve-game series, the Lincolnins having won four games for the Sox. A pair of victories for the locals on the sidelines will put them on par with the Keenanmen. It is impossible that Yokell will pitch both games if it appears that the victories sought are to be denied.
The coming of the Lincolnins means a tonic to local baseball fans, who have been in the dolrums because some of the big time attractions they wanted to see, have not played here. Sunday the diamond devotees will have the opportunity to see two bitter rivals struggle for supremacy. Two great clashes are promised and Maryland Park is looking forward to its first capacity crowd of the season.
Sooner than you think, you may see the Homestead Grays in action in this section. It would not surprise this writer to see the Poseymen turn their Bucks this way and make it a series with Hildale, the Lincolnins because I don't believe that I'm wrong. Then, and only then, can this argument about the best team in the East be settled. If the ball players on the Lincolnins, Daisies and Sox behave themselves and act like gentlemen, then I know that the Grays won't make me out a flair.

Doubles by Hubbard and Briggs and Oscar's single accounted for Hildale's tallies in the second.

KID NORFOLK LOSES
Bobby Brown and Joe Cook Win in Preliminaries.
Al Brown, bantamweight champion, gave Baltimore fans a brief exhibition of his skill, Friday night, when he rocked Calvin Reed, New Yorker, to sleep in the fourth round of a scheduled 10-round bout.
Brown, a master of the defensive style of boxing, and dealing dynamite with both of his fists, toged along with Reed in the first two cations, tapping him now and then to convince him that he could find his op hips in the match to. Reed landed some good browns head and shoulders, but the champion merely shook them off.
Reed Felled in Second
The champion sent Reed to his knees in the second round with a stinging right hook and as Reed came count, the fans could see that he was slightly groggy. In the third round Reed landed few blows and those few that he did land were rather feeble. Time and again Brown's arms, work, skill and dexterity, please rapid bombardment of that had Reed wining. Brown showed in every respect to be of championship calibre, his foot-work and his clever feline, matching the strength and precision of the chicken.
Fourth Round Is Final
Reed came out of his corner as the fourth round opened, almost reeling, and it was evident that he would not stand up long if Brown released another assortment of his dynamic punches. And it was long, for a stiff left upperarm to Reed's back, down to the canvas, face-forward.
When Reed did not rise at the count of ten, Brown, his conqueror, lifted the fallen boxer and carried him to his corner. After assuring himself that the defender the rhamman left the ring midst a storm of applause, Many in the crowd swarmed around the door of his dressing quarters and as he encerhed him he besieged with admirers seeking phoebe.

The semi-final bout found Young Kid Norfolk dropping the decision after eight rounds. To Panama Coast Board of New York Norfolk won the opening rounds, but Bernard, by his aggressive style of fighting and his powerful two-handed punches, overcame the lead held by the Judge, boy to the decision of the judges. Bernard exhibited a powerful left hook and on several occasions had Norfolk against the ropes. Norfolk tired after the sixth round and the final two rounds easily went to the New York fighter.
In other preliminary bouts, Joe Cook kaved Doug Gibson, of Philadelphia, in the first round, and Bohov Brown, local fighter, outpointed Pedro Lorenzo, of Cuba.

Race Ha. Been Killed.
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.—(Special)—George Smith of Chicago, driving a Founty Ford, and averaging 65.63 miles per hour, won the seventh annual 100-mile automobile race at the fair grounds here. July Fourth, but only after the event had been held up an hour and a half, while drivers argued with the management.
Objection of the drivers was directed at Will Jeffries of Chicago and his eight-cylinder front drive car which had been entered in the race at the last minute the day before. The car was one that had been a Cooper Special in the 500-nile Decoration
Lay rate Difference Settled
G. N. T. Gray, manager of the race answered the objectors with the propulsion that the purse be reduced, and after much bickering he agreed to perish for the race with the purse remaining the same. Hanoi pursues also of Chicago, and drives another Fronty Ford, took winner. Lawrence four minutes behind the driver, in Lawrence Ford, was third, six minutes behind Smith, and Will Jeffries was fourth, twenty minutes the leader.
Jeff's Time Slow
There was no need for any of the men to fear Jeffries. Jeff, with the fastest car on the race, was six-mile away from the first hour, driving five for Smith the lead. When the race was slowed up for an accident early in the race, Jeff was had been running down an hour, prompting him down to a pit stop to show his spirit.
drAthena- four laps he was eleven miles behind the leader. The only reason he finished fourth was by the only acute attribution of the field, as he was only two cars ahead the running beside his two cars which had been out of the race half an hour, on account of engine trouble. Oscar Schener won the five-mile consolation for those who failed to finish for the big race.
Race Has Been Killed
Interviewed after the race. Mr. Graw characterized the action of the drivers, with the exception of George Graham, who was willing to start his car on any terms, as a "cheap race bunch." The annual 100-mile race has been killed. he said, "and the drivers who have done it." They have killed them on goose that laid the golden toe—the biggest event in the Negro world."

KID CHOCOLATE HALTS PETRONE IN SIXTH
Cuban Bantam Shashing *Away as Referee Awards Technical Kayo*.
NEW YORK—Kid Chocolate, the sensation Cuban Bantam injuries received in an automobile crash several months ago, showed that he has lost none of his ring prowess by scoring a knockout Petronite, in the sixth round of a scheduled ten-round bout at Ebbets Field Wednesday night.
Chocolate opened the fight with a knockout attack on the Italian boxer, and had him gross, before the start of the sixth round. The "Keed" had Petronite againstropes punished when the start of the slaughter.
Lee Wins
On the same card, Canada Lee, welterweight, scored a technical knockout over Willie Garafoa, white, in the ninth round of the semi-final. Interval fencing was Chocolate, interval fencing as to the reason Al Singer, over whom he holds a decision, has been scheduled toight Sammy Mandell for the lightweight title. "I's beyond me," he told Jess McMahon, promoter and matchmaker at the Flatbush ball park, when the latter visited him at camp. "I beat Singer, and they gave him a chance at the title. I can't understand why he would give me a difference. The Keed will force the winner of that one into the ring or the public will regard him as champion. "I want a title and I'm going to get one. I know I can beat any of those 135-pound boys. I can't confidently get me on the best one who hasn't anything on hand right now."
HOOK and LINE
ROD and REEL
While the opening of the fresh water bass season for Maryland was ushered in last week, it does not mean that bass may be caught in any waters of the State.
Fishing for bass in such waters as Middle River, the River River and any of the other brackish waters where the tide ebbs and flows, does not begin until August first.
The Maryland law on the subject
reads as follows:
It shall be unlawful to catch black bass in any manner in the tidal waters of the State of Maryland during the months of April and May, and to catch every year. It shall also be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to sell or offer to sell, purchase or offer, to purchase or to possess a fish, whether said fish be caught in tidal or non-tidal waters of the State of Maryland, or the waters of any other State and brought into this State, provided, however, that an angler's month of July in non-tidal waters of the State under the provisions of Section 71 of Article 39 of the Code of Public General Laws of Maryland, shall be caught in tidal waters of the said fish so caught. Section 71 and succeeding sections provide that anyone fishing for bass in non-tidal waters shall have to have an angler's license provided he is more than 18 years old, or fish so taken. No bass under the length of 10 inches may be taken and retained and not more than 10 bass may be caught by any one person in one day.
When tales of fishing trips are told it is likely that the experience of Charles W. Carter, 579 Pressman Street, street while fishing in the Riverside Middleeses County Virginia on July 3, will take the first honors.
Mr. Carter, who was accompanied by Lloyd W. Carter and John B Smith, both of Middleeses, landed 40-pound, sea ice in marking the first time in 63 years that such a feat had been performed in that locality. The turtle has been brought to Baltimore where Mr. Carter is keeping it in a garage, which took the three months to the big flow and the battle was an exciting one.
Keeping up the prestice of the group, Lloyd Carter landed a 20-foot pound rock fish, balancing the achievements of the group, Mrs. Charles Carter accompanied her burger cook, but was not a member of the fishing party.

groes in boxers as rare as diamond soles on a pair of shoes as big as those of Primo Carnera," James W. Jennings, white, writer on the New York Graphic, has the following to say regarding the fistic situation as it affects the dark-skinned boxer. Three months ago there was a possibility that a Negro boxer might succeed to each of the seven recognized championships. Al Brown is considered boss of the bantams, and not one white boxer has evinced a desire to dispute his claim. Since then Young Jack Thompson on the welterweight crown from Jackie Fields, and three of the Negro contenders have been eliminated.
George Godfrey, heavyweight, loss to a foul to Primo Carrara; Larry Johnson, light heavyweight, was defeated by Maxie Rosenbloom, present king of the class, and Blake looked upon as a suspect to grab the fight and lost in an unexset backset to Midget Wolgast the Philadelphia pepperpot.
Chocolate Near Title
Kid Chocolate, almost a certainty to whip either Bat Battalion, featherweight chief, or Sammy Mandell, lightweight scar. If they will but enter a ring with him, may take Jack Birk) Berg's trick junior welterweight when they square off at the Polo Grounds, August 7. The Kid rejected matches with Earl Maestro of Chicago and Tony Canzonell. If he whipped the Brooklyn Italian, who fought Al Singer a draw (Canzonell finally won the bout, but Mandell a close fight for the title in Chicago last year, Mandell would have no excuse for dodging the Cuban in the event he make a successful defense of his title against Singer when they tangle in a fifteen-round affray at the Yankee Stadium July 17. If Si. Siger wins, Chocolate might as well acquaint at the relationship because he bested Singer last year. Harry Smith, the colored middle-weight of Harlem, is the best potential, and Maxie Rosenbloom, Harlem Harlequin, new light-heavy champ.

Walker be thrown to the alizirators—not the piny variety—than swap wallops with the Harlemite.
Rosenbloom, who deplored the lack of opponents and was refused permission to run for commission, is deaf when Smith's name is mentioned.

Seek to Match Smith and Maxie Rosenbloom
NEW YORK. (ANP)—A fight between Maxie Rosebloom, newly crowned light heavyweight champion, and Harry Smith, middleweight, is being sought at Ebbets Field, for the near future.
Neither man is able to get anyone in his class to meet him so both are forced to step out of bounds for a fight. Smith's recent victory over Yale Okun, a light heavyweight, has given him confidence that he can win in that class. MacMahon is going to the fore to bring the bout to Brooklyn.
more decisively than Rosenbloom did at the Garden.
If the Woodcooper years for heavyweights, surely he should leap at the chance to fight a boxer about fifteen pounds lighter than himself.
The Harlequin bested Larry Johnson, who was his inal in weight and supposed to be a better puncher than Smith.
Harry not only is a terrific hitter, but an intelligent, skilled boxer. Nebrombloom likes either one style or the other, a combination of both is relied on.
Smith Fearcd
a year. Smith has been boxing about a
year: Rosenbloom eight. The Woodpecker
has met the headliners of clout.
His experience, coupled with his unorthodox style, should suffice to make him a like Walker, who would fight Smith if he cared to box a "wet" with Mike Heyes. Rosenbloom is ho-hum about a contest with Harry.
Given fair opportunities, Chocolate and Smith might become title fighter for Narcissus in boxing as rare as diamond soles on a pair of shoes as big as those of Primo Carrera.

But when the thermometer is climbing, do you enjoy entertaining in your home?

To have a delightful menu that will not tax your energy should be the aim of every woman. Prepare Before Guests Arrive
the hostess, you should always look fresh and cool when your guests arrive, and then be able to remain warm them and entertain them rather than have to rush back and forth to the kitchen to see if the sauce has burned or the ice cooler has frozen. All the food should not be left out until one arrives. Of course, this means that it must be prepared and kept in good condition and ready to place on the plates before serving. The work that can be done in the kitchen and leaving just those last few touches for the afternoon will simplify your serving tremendously.

The cards are removed, an attractive cloth is laid and the jungle served. Your ease and refreshment will be assured, and refreshing menu will go a long way toward establishing your reputation as a successful hostess.

Orange Marmalade
Oranges and lemons. They're excellent fruits—taste good and have a pleasing appearance. you'll agree, they are delicious, all the foods. Well, then, isn't it logical that a combination of these three things would result in a delicious sweet?
But on several sides we hear pro-
laborate. Its bitter. The tough particles
are its bitter.
"Then, on the other hand, some discriminating person will say, "Orange marmalade when properly made is simply marvelous." And here we have suggested the reason why many people dislike orange marmalade. Too often it is not of high quality. Marmalade is a clear, amber, quivery jelly, with transparent bits of orange and lemon peel, suspended in it.
The first essential for success is to have a sharp knife ready for use. Select three medium sized oranges and two medium lemons. The oranges and the lemons 7 ounces. Wash and dry the fruit. Cut lengthwise into sixths. Then slice the fruit crosswise into slices as thin as possible. (We like thin slices because they do not become transparent, and are t. sh. You give five cups of water to the fruit. You may then proceed to cook up the mixture immediately, or allow it to stand over night. Add the juices of one lemon (5 ounces) to the water of the fruit and put on the stove to cook. Roll gently for about fifty minutes. In this time the fruit will become tender. While the fruit's cooking measure out six cups of water to sterilize. Place them on the stove in a pan of water to sterilize, and place two or three small plates with teaspoons on them in the coldest part of the refrigerator. These spoons will be used on the refrigerator. The gelation point of the marmalade.
After the fruit pulp has been cooked remove from the fire and measure. You should have about 5 cups. If not, add water to make up the mixture. Add the sugar and stir until it is completely dissolved. Return the mixture to the stove and bring to a boll. Boil fairly vigorously, but not so hard that the mixture becomes too thick. Remove from the flame, and test to see if marmalade is cooked sufficiently. Half fill one of the spoons which have been in the refrigerator with the marmalade. Replace in refrigerator. Replace in oven or knife and turn over the portion of marmalade'. If the under side has jellied, the marmalade is done and is ready to be poured into the sterilized glasses. Does not heat, heat the marmalade to boiling and boil three minutes longer. Repeat this test until the marmalade jells satisfactorily on the spoon. If you have a candy or jelly thermometer, test it. If the temperature of marmalade should be 219 degrees F. when the mixture is done.
Pour marmalade into sterilized glasses. As soon as the surface has begun to jell a pour a thin paraffin from the paraffin into the marmalade, cooled, add a thicker portion of paraffin, taking care to completely seal all around the edges.
Kentucky Stew
1 medium slice smoked ham, 1 package macaroni, 1 can tomatoes, 1 green pepper, 1 celery (cut fine), 1/4 cup grated cheese.
Remove the seeds from the green pepper, let stand in boiling water a few minutes, then add the macaroni with boiling water to which 1/2 teaspoon of salt has been added, and boil for ten minutes.
Add the ham in several small pieces, fry quickly for about five minutes (not hard); add to the macaroni. Then add the celery, tomatoes, and green pepper. Mix well and put the mixture in a buttered baking dish and bake.
Fried Halibut
1 pound halibut, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 3 tablespoon corn meal, 1/4 cup feta cheese. Have halibut cut into one thick steak. Wipe with a damp cloth. Marinate with lemon juice. Let stand on a baking sheet. Fry in fat until nicely browned on both sides. Add salt. Cover and continue cooking until done; about 10 minutes later, gently immediately on a platter garnished with parsley and wedges of lemon.
Bacon Muffins
2½ cups bread flour, 5 teaspoons baker's-1. powder, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon milk, 1/2 teaspoon bacon, 1 egg, well beaten, 1/4 cups milk, 3 tablespoons melted bacon fat.
Mix and sift dry ingredients thoroughly. Add bacon and mix. Beat egg, and milk and melted fat. Pour liquid ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until flour is well dampened. Pour into well coated pans. Pour into large gritted muffin pans. Bake 25 minutes in hot oven (400 degrees to 524 degrees).

1½ squares bitter chocolate, 1½ cup sugar, ¼ tablespoon cornstarch, 1½ cup sugar, ¼ tablespoon ¼ cup cup water, 1 teaspoon vanilla.
Melt chocolate over hot water. Add milk and continue heating until milk is thick enough. Add sugar and salt thoroughly; add cold water and stir to a smooth paste. Pour slowly into hot chocolate mixture stirring thoroughly, then heat until thick enough to blender. Cook for 2 minutes longer. (Beaten eggs should never be added to hot cooking mixture because the eg cooks in strings and does not blend well.) Remove mixture from vanilla and pour into molds. Chill.

Here's How He Got Rid Of His Toothache!
The young gentleman kept a large tube of toothpaste on a convenient shelf in his room. However, not long after he finished washing his teeth. And as it in reinstallation for his negligence, one by one cavities developed his molars. Time passed. But he put off consulting a dentist. Thus one of the coldest blizzards of that winter caught him in the middle of a walk, wrenched from any town one night. One of his law teeth started to punish him before a daylight. Throughout that day he lived in throbbing agony. Night came and he found no relief from his misery. Hisache drops, alcohol, rendered him no relief. Even rinsing his mouth recumbently with hot water in which salt and soda had been dissolved failed to stop his suffering. So filled the mouth with cotton and snuff he went to bed. "Perhaps," he thought, "my tooth quit hurting when I go to sleep." But go to sleep, he could not. The throbbing tooth continued to dispense misery. So he rolled and
"Toothpaste," he finally reflected, "might give me some relief. It's too much. I need to tooth and gums. So I'll just get up and brush my teeth and see what happens."
He arose and applied toothpaste to his face while it produced was held in his mouth several moments before it was discharged. Thus, having employed this new toothpaste remedy, he went to bed and soon knew relief. MORAL: Try anything once—it may work.
African Diamonds
Answering the question, "When were the South African Diamond Mines Discovered?" Grover Patterson in 1866, when a child picked up a stone weighing 21½ carats, from the Scripps-Howard paper says, "The South African diamond mines were discovered near Kimberly in 1866, when a child picked up a stone weighing 21½ carats, from the Scripps-Howard paper says, $2,500. In 1867 a Hottentot Negro found a diamond of 83½ carats, which he sold for $2,000 to a dealer who later got $6,500, and $1,000 more valued at $12,500 and is the famous Star of South Africa in the collection of the Earl of Dudley. Since 1868 the total value of the diamonds that this field has yielded has been $1,75,000,-000."

Philadelphia Girl Edits
Phyllis Wheatley Poems
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Coming as one of the year's best gestures in the field of poetic revival is a volume of Phillis Wheeler Publishing edited by Charlotte Ruth Wright, of this city. The gesture is quite doubly unique in that twenty years ago her parents published a book of the poems as they had originally been published in London in 1773. In reviving the poems of the immortal writer, the young editor has attached copious explainer notes to finance the original value of the work. In adding the more recent poems which were not included in the edition, she adds a new angle in the genius of the saluted Phyllis. Among the more recent ones which have been included are: "His Excellency, General George Lee," and "Liberty and General Peace."
The editor, Miss Wright, is a recent graduate, of the University of Pennsylvania, and has taught in three and one-half years, being elected to the National Honorary Classical Fraternity for excellence in classical studies in nineteen years did R. R. Wright, Jr.

Colonel Fegan, white, from Dallas, Texas, is now commander of Americas marines in the Caribbean and the populace. He invited the commission to review the gendarmes and afterwards was host to the commission, his officers, white and native, and the Haitian citizens, where mint juleps, cigars and cigarettes were passed. He pointed with pride to the drum major and the gendarme band, all of the members of which are over six feet.
Colonel Fegan's predecessor at Cap Haïtien was one Colonel Hendley, also white, of the Marine Corps. The officer, born in birth) tells a story of how Hendley put him in jail; for one day because he was ten minutes late in bringing his taxi around to take a party of American visitors out to see the French boat, he got out after two hours by threatenment to appeal to the British consul.
There are taxes on articles of consumption but no land taxes in Haiti. In the past victorious generals, who have rewarded their soldiers and officers by huge grants of land. As a result their heirs at the capital claim thousands of acres upon which they tailed for generations without paying any rent. Peasants who have purchased land, have failed to have the title, recorded, have lost their land, and them destroyed by weather or insects.
There is the reported case of M. Dejolé, three generations of his father, and his Haitian wife, M. Dejolé has title to 300 a res of land left by his great-grandfather. His lands have been collected by peasants. He collected no rent before he established his title and has been able to collect none since. There will be the making of a small revolt to oust the peasants or collect rents.

"King Husselin," he says, "six years ago placed a duty of 10 per cent on each slave brought to this kingdom so that must be regarded as an official recognition of it."
Slaves are Happy
"It is necessary to add, though." says Kessel, "that the immense majority of the slaves in the slave states are far far as material welfare is concerned. Their high price assures them good food and preserves them from ill-treatment. Sometimes they are even members if they were members of the family.

"Yesterday, she said, "T visited the wife of a great Arab dignitary. Her husband had bought for her a little black boy the hat she had been browning. His father killed him to sing some of the songs of his country. He began to sing, but at the first notes, he broke down, sobbing. No softness the fate of a slave and no make me smirk at the home and the hard-skiness of that little boy."
Slaves Disgulsed
"The great slave-port," says Kessel, "is Port Sudan, which files the British flak. It is from here the pilgrims. Thus the fine zeal that England shows on this subject and the reproaches that she makes against her neighbors (France) for her trade can also be applied to her even more since slavery still exists in the Sudan which is un-her; her rule. It is also important to note that this maternal care for the slave enslaved by Gent Britain until recently."

In concluding his articles Kessel says: "One essential and indispensable fact is this—a fact that makes everything easier. We have door- civilization.

PORT au PRINCE, Haiti.—Long trips over rough dirt roads, interminable hearings in which everybody keeps his coat on although the thermometer says 95 degrees, social engagements in the afternoon and evening and at odd times, the outlining of the draft for a preliminary report, and the writing of letters home—this kind of a program continued for the past ten days does not seem to have affected the health nor the tempers of the Moton Commission members; but it is now 9 o'clock, Monday morning, June 27, and they are still sleeping.
Yesterday they returned after a strenuous five-day trip into the northern part of Haiti including official visits to Gonaives, St. Marc, Cap Haitien, Port de Paix, Plaisance, trips to trips to pineapple, saffalo and tobacco plantations, halts at schools along the way, and one day spent at the ruins of Christophe and funnel mountain requiring a two-hour journey up on burros.
One of the hardest members of the commission is Benjamin F. Hubert, president of Georgia State College at Savannah. No matter how hard or how long the trip, he is up early the next morning fit for a strenuous day. Scoring the auto for sightseeing he hikes off alone and in this manner has probably met more people and asked them more questions than any other audience part of the questions which even hard-boiled newspaper reporter would say at, and gets away with it.
Mordoreal W. Johnson, president of Howard, was president pro-tem of the commission on its Northern tour. He has outlined a list of 75 questions he would like to ask at each school, and he has kept the ministry of education and the school officials busy providing him with statistics. Leo Favrot, field officer, the Gouge member of the commission, was late in arriving for a broken ankle. Wisneracres opined that Mr. Favrot was dodging a long hard three weeks of work in which his associates would be all colored. They were wrong, of course.

Agricultural Depression Off Acres, Says Co ATLANTA, Ga.—The prevalent agricultural depression offers the Negroes of the South a rare opportunity to become landowners and ultimately to achieve economic independence, according to President B. F. Hubert of Savannah, of Georgia State College for Negroes, in a statement issued from the headquarters here of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation. Speaking as head of the Association for the Advancement of Negro Country Life, President Hubert says:
Farm Owners Decrease
"Since 1920, due to the heavy cityward and northward migration of the earlier years of the decade, the number of Negro farm owners in the South has decreased by 24,000 and the number of tenants and croppers by 235,000. Unfortunately, not a few of those who left the farm have fallen into difficult straits as to health, employment, and living conditions.
"Meantime the agricultural depression in the South has thrown millions of acres of good land on the market at low prices and on easy terms. Thus Negroes are offered a rare opportunity to become land owners and ultimately to achieve economic independence. To those taking this step, a number of state and federal agencies are prepared to offer trained advice and assistance in efficient farming and marketing meth-
ours, home making, and the Advancement of Negro Country Life, working with other agencies for the betterment of rural life among Negroes, seeks to point out to Negroes everywhere the beauties of country life. "Through its Farm and Home Ownership Week, it has emphasized the independence and self-reliance of farming operations gives way to intelligence and skill. It emphasizes better living, but appreciates the fact that better standards of living must have their foundation economic returns from the farm."

quiet.
The social set has scattered to all four points of the compass, and social activities confine themselves now mostly to sports.

Saturday his party visited the Philadelphia Museum on the Parkway, Pairmount Park and the day was terminated at a bridge and whist party at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hezel Whels, the daughter and mother, Mrs

"Be Wary of All Employers," is Advice to Girl in New York
Negro Girl Subjected to More Insults than Girls of Other Races, Writer Finds. Family Protection Found Often Lacking.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the final of a series of articles dealing with the employ-ment problems facing young women who come to New York City.
NEW YORK.—The Negro woman seems to be the prey of all mankind. Students of American social conditions attribute it to and classify this condition as a hang-over from slavery, but in New York, Europeans offend in this manner as much as Americans.
On the streets, the colored girl is insulted by whites of all classes, however strained she is, though she seems to be forbidding expression culture. refinement, disregard in every resture, and in no way encourage approach. The more modest and with better appearance they are appearing, they are feeling and embarrass her before others, by openly accosting her, with a male escort she is not safe. She dares not glance about in LS or in the meaning of encounters meaning elance.
This is the testimony of hundreds of Negro women, and I have made it daily practice to observe the demeanor with both hands and Countless times I have an Negro women change their seats and even go to a different car in order to escape the offensive stares of white men.
Negro Girls Suffer Most
On the other hand, the Negro women do not seem to give the white women assent to their views. Do they the women of their own race. Why is the woman of color considered "free territory" by men of white skin? Do they consider her allongex defensely? Do they consider her under the law, she has to be under the law, they right? I have come to the conclusion that the Negro girl suffers more from the employment evil than girls of any other race and have been able to figure out what the white man thinks concerning her
First, he thinks that she will be fattered and consider herself lucky to be noticed for any purpose whatever. He thinks that she will have enough courage to realize what loss might her offer her. And, though she may happen to become offended, will not be either disowned or able to do anything about it, as he seems to be as sure of the matter of different blood makes it impossible for her to put any stronger construction on his actions than he desires, that he may carry the association as far as he likes, for she surely expects any legitimate consideration. Whites Feel Safe He is thus safe from breach of promise suits and public annoyance of any kind. He also feels protected by other good name laws, and expects a hope to retain any relationship known to him.

ing whatever, whereas if she were white he would either have to marry her, go to prison, or make a money settlement. Also he thinks, and there is a lot of doubt, that the Negro girl seldom enjoys family protection, in that respect. He feels that a white girl family would be better off if there are brothers who brook no insult to the girls of the family and fathers who do not fail to bring the guilty man to justice, the father himself becoming the law if neces-
A.1 Eternal Struggle
During the time of the notorious Rhineland case, a party of girls were congregated in the kitchen of a Harlem working girl, a Harlem working girl, and a Harlem working girl had carried Kips allegation that Alice had lured him, pursued him, taken advantage of him. One of the working girls was speechless with indignation, "Humpin," she remarked. "Even better than that. Why, we girls can't even WORK in peace in their kitchens without the boss sneaking in and trying to put us every time the missus hurries her heartly corroborated by all present. The working girl suffers untold humiliation and is often forced to relinquish her position with respectable humiliation of both mistress and servant. The maid plays a hard, silent game of evasion, warding off the male of the house in a manner not to arouse the suspicion of her mistress' inclination he discovered, would indignantly dismiss the maid as the offender.
Perhaps you ask, "Why not patronize the various agencies?" There are several reasons why the jobless seek work, massages, haircuts and have not the required agency fee, which is sometimes exorbitant. In their poverty stricken condition, how can they be broke? In New York, they have, leaving themselves nothing to subsist on until they make a pay day? And there is no place you can be as broke in, as New York. They have very few references and very few of our people are wise enough to secure recommendations from their last employers. They only a small per cent of employers place their wants with agencies, and thus on the agency list the supply always exceeds the demand. You should see these New York streets. Therefore, the hard-pressed girl seeks to evade red tape and countless trips to the agencies and tries to get in direct touch with the

ting along a second party when going hunting. Inquire of those who know the city about the class of their neighborhood. Of course, a woman smothering an appointment. Why should it be necessary? Terminate interviews at the first suggestion of familiarity. Do not let complimentary remarks about face or figure impress the class; do they try to get a position with a nice, clean family. There are many of them, after all. Better harder work and unassailed honor. To a city rob you of your firm, determine a clean live. The weak, wild crowd will try to tell you that it is impossible to make it on the square in New York. Well, it's being done every day. By no means to any place in response to advertisement without one knowing where you are going, when you expect to return, and all particulars. I do not know how the employment situation can be made safe, but that she can avoid a lot of trouble and humiliation by being careful and alert.
The Voice of Labor
Last week, we had a letter coming from a student employed as steward on a student who complained thatcollected heads of certain departments where students were employed, often refused to employ college students invacational jobs, because these students refused to gamble, to be bale made money in, and to offer bribes to these men under whom they worked, to hold the job. The student said that even inefficient persons were employed if they would contribute these "melon
Now this week, we get a statement from a headwaiter, not the one referred to by the student, but the one who works at a number of students as kitchen helpers and waiters at a summer resort, and who tells an entirely different tale. Which only poses to the show that there are allied professions in the headwaiter admits that the student was right when he said that one can more readily find employees not addicted to the use of drugs and alcohol as a general thing, they are clean unstanding youngsters. But he also says that these good points are outweighed by egotism and stress, much that there is no room for learning anything else, says this headwaiter.
If you can get one through a season or so, he says, you can be as cheerful but an absolute washout as a waiter, that the study of triconometry does not lead to a degree in mixing salad dressing, and that what makes a cook a real ball game is the ability to eat at a dinner party is a different proposition, he will make an excellent employee in this line. But by the time he has learned this, he has finished college and is to go for a professions.
One spends much time in apprenticeship to become an expert waiter, says this "chief." A waiter must not only be deft in the use of his equipment, its arrangement. A waiter must have a professional knowledge of the use of an immense number of service dishes and silver, he must not only know many food combinations but know how to prepare a large number of them. He must have an even disposition and know how to handle contacts and situations. He must be able to place an irritated customer, and maintain an eminence with an over-enthusiastic one. Whatever curriculum colleges offer, this headwaiter claims he has not found one which offers a course that gives such training to students, the students he has employed evidently cut classes when the dear old Alma Mater was handing out such information. And yet he goes on employing them, he savs, because they are the best youngsters, and they are money to college expenses, but he expresses the opinion that there is room for improvement on both sides.

WATCHING THE BIG PARADE By RALPH MATTHEWS
Hell's Heroes.
JULY 4, 1917 — Flanders Field
somewhere in France — Mud, Mud
First Loeie is looking at
his watch.
"It won't be long now.
"Aw shut up, quit growling about the rain. We're going over the top in a few minutes and we'll all be in hell in the morning. We're going to get a last look at his sweete in the dark. You better feel her, kid, that's what the other guy's doing in the dark back home." The old lady will be collecting that six-fifty insurance tomorrow. Bet she and her other man will be sitting pretty if the Fritzs take our number tonight . . .
"Get down and pray, you sinners. You better talk to your God." You're not alone. "well meet Him in a few minutes and can tell Him in all about it face to face..." "and I give my right arm for a smoke." "Just wait—there's smoke aplenty out there." "Just this rain. Why don't they fight, this war in a desert?"
"Who? Me nervous? You're a darn fool. It's from this rain I'm shivering."
"Two minutes, men ...."
"Dummat that Lolo." "Everythah back from the dumps? All right, boys, we're going over!"
"That's tough, buddie—the dirty snipers—just lay where you are—I'll square things up for you—Dead Man's Hill, eh?—Well, here's one dead man who's going over and coming back too—there's the siren; get your mask on, they're throwing those damn gas bombs—use your other arm, quick—What? You got it in both arms? There, that will hold you—just lay where you are—they'll pick you un."
"They're mowing us down—well
they're mowing us down. Boy, it's
hell out here tonight!"
Fools' Paradise.
JULY 4, 1930—Greenwood Electric Park, somewhere in Catonsville—dust, dust, dust. An open pavilion in a dark grove. IKE. Open pavilion in a dark grove. Coffe. Out of the pavilion. Perspiration rolling down their faces as they play hot jazz—shirts wringing wet. Huddled cushions, swaying, laughing, singing—I went down to sit, James Barnyard and found my sweetheart there.
Fellows, girls, women, men, sitting on the edge of the railing, their feet on top of the benches in the wicker chair, dawning away steppers—every dancer trying to outdo the other—"Swing that gal." "Walk that broad," half-pint girls doing the wampus, the latest in a acrobatic toe wiggling. "First on your heels, then on your toes, swing her way off, pull her back to you and do that thing, boy." "On your toes, gal. Now show your embroider!" "Want to see the doctor? Here I am, the big gin man from the school." "Get back there, you bump. Whadda mean shaking that bottle in my wife's face; she's a lady."
"Look out there, he's got a razor."

From Chicago—"Your column on Chicago was rotten. You ought to coin it in and get shot by the gangmen you wrote about. It is smart ack out-of-town writers like you who give Chicago the bad name it has today. I have lived here seven years and never witnessed a holdup, or murder—William J. Allor."
Thanks, Mr. Allor, I am forwarding your name and address to Mr. Al Capone, and requesting that he have some of his men put on a performance to inform him that you would serve as a target to hold up the name of your fair city.
That Terrible Dawn Dance.
BALITMORE—"Dear Mr. Mathews: I cannot refrain from taking you to task for your inexcussible demands. I cannot dance dawn dance. The youth of the city are corrupt enough now without writers like you giving them the impression that they are right in their transgressions. I cannot dance dawn dance. Mrs. Johnson, don't take on like that. Anybody who goes to the devil because of anything I say would have probably gone of their own accord anyway; so let's you and I forget it and be friends. And More Down Dance.

Say Steel Mills Exploit Negroes
NEW YORK. — That steel mills exploit NGO laborers in the South, overworking and underpaying them, and the workers in "The Steel Mills Today" in the New Republic, summarized by the N.A.A.C.
"Plaints in the South depend on the Negro for common labor, and the Negro is the slave," the article. "He is worked ten hours, twelve hours a day seven days a week. White foremen — "bulldog bosses" — ride him constantly. He is a slave, but once caught in this grinding life, there is no escape for him."
The cheap Negro labor is used by the
Cheapman to work on ages low generally,
says the article.

African Territories
LONDON.—A movement to effect a closer union of the three British East African territories, Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania, be in the British parliament, according to a statement issued by Premier McDonald, this week.
Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania possess a combined area of 685,000 square miles, which is more than the combined area of England and Wales. The population of the territories is in the neighborhood of 14,000,000, of whom hardly a 1,000,000 are Europeans. The territories are sparsely populated sections of Africa.

In Memoriam
DUFFELE — In sad but loving remembrance of our dear mother, Harriett Duffield, who departed this life one year ago.
Please do not mourn her leaving, Do not cry that she is gone; Life on earth is but a night, of the beauty of the dawn. If our love was great enough, That it was sad to see her go; Know that she is happier gone, And be glad to have it so.
She: is not gone, her soul is here with
US.
In all we do each day;
She is not dead but living.
Seddy missed by her DUAGHTER,

HYNSON — In loving memory of my husband and our father, Andrew Hynson, who departed this life July 13, 1929.
There's a vacancy in our family, That can never be replaced; That can never be loved one. That can never be erased.
There's a mourful recollection, Of a year ago today; When Christ, our Heavenly Father, Called our loving one away.
There's a God above in Heaven, Who cares for us each day; And by His hand He guides us. In the straight and narrow way.
By his wife, MRS. DAVID HYNSON, And MRS. ETHEL WATSON and EDWARD HYNSON, Towns. Del.

BLAME DEATH OF SISTER FOR SUICIDE TRY
Mental Derangement of Young Cohen Follows Kin's Demise. SECOND ATTEMPT
Man Once Saved from Mississippi Drowning.
NEW ORLEANS, La. — Benjamin J. Cohen, age 34, the younger son of Honorable Walter L. Cohen, prominent political figure, insurance official, and comptroller of customs, attempted to end his life Sunday afternoon by slashing the wrist of his left arm with a razor blade.
Shortly after the death of his sister, Camille, young Cohen began to display irresponsible traits that were taken to indicate a mental disturbance. Following a previous death threat when he was apprehended at the Mississippi River after he had left a note indicating his intentions, he was sent away for treatment. Later, showing signs of improvement, he was permitted to return. Newly leans and wears his duties as an agent of the insurance company of which his father is founder and president.
Saved by Wife
Sunday afternoon, alarmed by his sudden disappearance, his wife, Mrs Clara Cohen, began a search for him and located him in the bathroom of their residence, with his wrist nearly severed and very weakened from the loss of blood. Hr was rushed to Charity Hospital. Mr. and Mrs. Cohen occupy an apartment over the People's Industrial Life Insurance Company on Dumaine Street. At the time of the suicidal attempt his father and a number of friends were in the insurance office unaware of the near tragedy.

(Washington Bureau of the AFRO) slain. And he has never helped!
No "Base"
WASHINGTON, D. C. "One doesn't have to be logical if he is white, he merely needs to be white," declared Clarence Darrow, noted Chicago lawyer, speaking to the Washington Open Forum, held in the chapel of Howard University, after clergymen of the city had refused to let him speak in any church here. The famous trial attorney further told his hearers that if there is a God He is white, so don't depend upon him. "Depend upon yourselves," he said.
Prayer No Good
"Prayer won't do you any good," remarked Darrow. "What your race needs is education, as good pay as you can get, courage, perseverance, and as many of the material needs and comforts as it is possible to obtain. I am not saying that you should not give to churches if you want to, but I am saying that, with the little money the Negro has, the little consider material, practical things very careful must have if he is to continue to progress.
"You might make out a budget, apportioning so much for education, so much for physical necessities, so much for heaven, if you will, but not forgetting to put aside a fair amount for the realities of the earth.
"Your race has accomplished a great deal by these methods of education and organization of education by prayer in the deity. If there is a Lord who governs everything, be sure that He knew all about your troubles before you tool them to Him. And He had done nothing about them.
"He stood by when your ancestors were dragged from their homes in Africa and shipped across the into servitude to be drowned in and drowned themselves to escape a living hell, when the rest of them were chained to the ships so that they could not thus commit suicide, when ingestive slaves brought back by the British officials be killed by the Civil War. He has been present at every lynching and burning, when poor, helpless black men and women have been tortured and

slain. And he has never helped! No "Race"
"There isn't any such thing as a race. Any intelligent biologist knows that. How ridiculous he is because he was created, a black one, a red one, a green one, and so on. Science shows that Nature, in enlightenment, time, evolved men with black skins in the tropics because they could better stand the heat. Color is a question of recognition. That is why the shapes of skins differ.
"As for race superiority, it is non-sense. It isn't a question of superiority. It is a question of human beings or of furniture, is a matter of opinion—or of prejudice. The white man thinks his color is not the notion, not the black man's. And what proof we have that the white man is right? Perhaps he is all wrong. We 'whites' are not white, anyway. We 're only a kind of man.'
says "One thing remember, that nobody has to get rid of the colored race. Oh no! They want you. They like to have you do their work. All they want of you is to 'keep you in place'. If you are in it, all very simple place. What is that 'your proper place'. Why, servility, crining, tips, civilization, humiliation, segregation in the worst sections of the cities, exclusion from dignified and intellectual work, no matter how well fitted it for you. You're proper. If you are a slavery so far better than the slavery from which you were emerald. 1863
"You will never make any genuine progress. If you stumble, you will stumble. You will not forward only by educating yourself, organizing, bettering your material conditions, and improving."
Must Help Selves
"Yes, my friend. I am strongly inclined to think that whatever you get yourselves. It won't come from 'superior race' but there are oceans white men and women who will be just to you. It won't come from the sky. The gains you have so far attained have resulted from your own efforts. So it will happen. The ban of the Negro clergy received brief and tense allusion from Darrow. "You can go back and tell them that I wouldn't speak church anyway, would speak anywhere else. he said. "I think they to make a speech in a church. I usually say what I think. A can't do that. A can't do the average church. So it is better for me to are satisfied to have me kept out of the churches here and I am satisfied so all of us are suited." he concluded

CLAIM BISHOP CAREY WITHHELD SCHOOL FUNDS
Ministers and Laity say Money for Wilberforce Not Delivered
COLUMBUS, O.—Trouble which has been haunting the steps of Bishop A. J. Carey in his political activities broke out afresh and seriously threatens his standing as an administrator of church funds, when the layy of the Third District, in session here, passed a resolution demanding an accounting of educational funds raised by his district for the support of Wilberforce University.
The resolution states that Wilberforce University is the outstanding educational institution supported by the African Methodist Episcopal Church. The church, in an effort to perpetuate it, established certain educational areas, from which funds were to be raised for its support. Each bishop assigned to these areas has assumed his share throughout the years that he passed.
The Trustee Board of the institution held immediately after the close of the last General Conference, met various areas and adopted a budget.
The First District, presided over by
Bishop J. H. Jones, $30,000.
The Third District, presided over by
Bishop W. H. Heard, $30,000.
The Fourth District, presided over
by Bishop A. J. Carey, $30,000.
Carey Fell Short
They further set forth that during the past two years the First and Third Districts have had to bear the burden almost alone. The Fourth District, over which the Fourth Presidency is tasked to meet its part of the burden. During this year the sum of $1,000 has been paid. Educational rallies have been held in the District, and the funds raised, but for some inexplicable reason. Wilberforce has received nothing, except as above stated. During the Fourth Educational Area has seriously jeopardized the credit of the institution.
Demand Accounting
The resolution demanded that Bishop Carey turn over to the institution the funds raised in the case of accusation against the bishop of failing to comply with the laws by delivering the money to the treasurer of Wilberforce where it rightfully belongs will be sent to each bishop and each pastor in the Fourth
The resolution was signed by the following:
A. Sydney King, Wm. H. Trus,
O. A Burke, J. C. Jackson, E. L. Peterson, Chas. W. Hogans, J. Scott,

High Masonic Dignitaries Engage in Public Fist Fight
Ranking Lodge Members Settle Differences Outside of Hall as Spectators Applaud.
The much taut spirit of brotherly love supposed to exist among the brethren of the Free and Accepted Masons was cast to the winds Tuesday night when two of the leading dignitaries of Enterprise Lodge No. 3, invited each other outside of the hall at Mosher and McCulloh Streets and indulged in a lively exchange of Masonic ficticuffs.
The past grand master accused the interrogator of constantly causing trouble by asking the most entreatious questions, adding that the present deflated condition of the lodge was due directly to his lack of keeping the lodge of longershine.

To this Mr. Smith is alleged to have replied: "I don't care how much trouble I cause; at least I'm not the one."

Hurrying spectators, attracted by the scuffing feet and booming voices, crowded around and in the rays of the flickering street lights beheld the paring, puffing and great, perturbed 200-pound figure of the Hon. Joseph Evans, past grand master, in one mythical corner, and the diminutive figure of Charles Smith, grand captain general of the grand commander, glaring quite fiercely with all his 135 pounds from above. Both men had been struck squarely with malice as ahembought on the ends of their respective noses. When other of the order decided that the honor of each had been sufficiently vindicated, and prevailed upon them to repair to the lodge room without further bloodshed and disrespect to the lodge.
Said Mean Words
The events leading up to the affray began inside the lodge room when the members are said to have indulged in fiery bits of reparture unbecoming to Masons of high rank. The question of how much money was paid into the burial and when a brother member insisted he wraps his hands around his eternal reward was prompted by the captain-general who is also the secretary of the lodge.

For one Mason to mitigate another Mason in the nose and vice versa is violation of the solemn vows, and both are subject to suspension in charges are preferred.
