AFRICANS LEAD IN FRENCH CELEBRATION North African Chiefs Make Gorgeous Spectacle on Independence Day. CELEBRITIES MINGLE Algerian Conquest also Celebrated on July 14. (Paris Bureau of the Afro-American) Paris—With almost the entire Independence Day parade given over to Africans, dark hud clues from Algeria and North Africa dominated this year's Liberty celebration, said to be the most gorgeous Paris has seen in modern times. This year's 14th of July—the day on which the Bastille was captured in 1793—happens to be the centenary of the conquest of Algeria, and the famous saphis, or North African cavalry were brought to Paris to take part in the parade. Early in the morning the president of the McMullen family held a review in which nearly all the naval and military units had been represented, among them the cadets from the famous military College of St. Cyr, as well as the Technique and Celebrities Mingle In all these military and naval units Negroes as officers, students, and privates were to be seen indiscriminately mixed with the whites. In the reviewing stand, were members of the African Union of Morocco, who is darker in color than the average American mulatto; the Bay of Tunis, Africa; the brother of the Emperor of Japan; and M. Alcide Gobert, a colored member of the French Gabin. The white soldiers, most of whom are Frenchmen, were dressed in the gorgeous and dashing uniforms of 1830: the native Africans, who were long, flowing white, with richly embroidered tunes. Even the jazz musicians, which have been having a hard time with their talks, had their day, although it is to be noticed that for the first time dozens of cafes had a huge crowd speaker which has jazz from some broadcasting station. Baltimore, Saturday, August, 2, 1930 What the U.S. State Department terms a cleverly conceived forgery, is the following letter, sent to the AFRO-AMERICAN from Monrovia, Liberia, where an international commission is now probing alleged slavery. The letter, supposedly a report of an American official to the American government, tells of English and French plans to destroy Liberian independence, and substantiates reports that forced labor conditions prevail in Liberia. The forged document purports to be signed by Henry Carter, one-time U.S. Charge d'Affaires in Liberia, who was mysteriously relieved of his job there. Copies of the letter have been circulated in Liberia, with what effect is not known.

EX-HARLEM MAID WINS POINT IN $200,000 SUIT Court Grants Her the Right to Keep Witnesses Secret. HIT IN TILT Maid Claims Injury as White Lovers Fought. NEW YORK—The first lap in her possible $200,000 damage suit against the popular Broadway star, Kathryn Ray, white, and Macoco de Alzago Undue of Argentine, was won this week by Miss Ann Snowden, former maid for the pair, when the court granted her request to keep the names of her witnesses secret. Miss Snowden is suing the celebrated stage star and her alleged lover for injuries she is alleged to have received when the former engaged in a love scrape. She was struck by blonde which she intended either with the Argentine lover or the shapey Miss Ray, and as a result, she sets forth in her suit, she may have cancer. Demanded Names When Miss Ray and Unzue appeared in the Supreme Court here before Justice Collins, they demanded that Miss Snowden give them the names of the witnesses who she had told the court would testify in her behalf. But this she skillfully argued that her former employers were seeking names of these witnesses so that they could reach them and lure them away from her by wealth. Just what witnesses Miss Snowden intends to produce and what they will testify to, the court then granted her permission to keep as her own secret until the case comes up for Not Blackmail In scoffing off a charge made by her former employers that she was trying to blackmail them, she produced two letters, one from Miss Ray and the other from Unzue in which both of them praised her record as maid for honesty and dependability. "Dear reader," read Miss Ray's letter, "has been in my service for three years. I recommend her to her and honesty and willingness for all work: also good character. As she has been in my service she isn't employed by me any longer." Macco is said to have given Ann this message: "The bearer of this letter, Ann Sawden, has been in my service in the United States and abroad. She has given satisfaction in the point of view concerning honesty and work." CHANELLOR 31 TIMES ST. LOUIS. Aaron W.

And so his father gave him a conception of scholarship which made him the highest honor student at high school and later at Rutgers College and Columbia University law school. Elsanda Robeson's biography of the six-foot, three husband whom she majly loves is centered around the idea that the success he achieved as student, athlete, lawyer, and dnamic man requires him a Negro "which would most certainly have made his slave father proud." Paul Roheson's success in the leading roles of "Emperor Jones," "Black Boy," "All God's Chilurt. Got Wings" and still more recently in London as the Moor in Shakespeare's "Othillo," as well as the applause which greets him at home and in Europe on the concert stage as a singer of Negro spirituals, has made his wife proud of him too.

ATLANTA, Ga.—Bolstered by an outraged public sentiment and unimpeachable evidence against the defendant, the hand of justice tightened against seven men charged with murdering Dennis Hubert, Morehouse College divinity student, when T.

(Washington Bureau of the AFO) WASHINGTON—Severe white women are seeking a vacant position as policewoman, which the Women's Police Bureau expects to fill with a colored candidate by September, a representative of the AFO-AMERICAN was told, Tuesday. The vacancy in the department was caused on April 25 by the death of Mrs. Henrietta Burwell, who had filled the position creditably for five years. Approximately fifteen women have been brought to the attention of the bureau, since the announcement of the place. Four of the eight colored women who applied failed of consideration because they had passed the age limit of 35 years. Women Praised Special care is being taken in the selection of a candidate, because of the high type of woman needed, it was stated. All the colored persons who have seized the office must be unmistakable commendation of the officials of the bureau for their devotion and interest in the work. Some of the duties of the police-woman listed are: to investigate cases of sexual offenses involving girls under the age of 16; to search for public information to supervise public education places.

Where a family or person who comes under the observation of the bureau needs financial aid, recommendations are made to the bodies. The Women's Bureau feels that the position of policewoman is a very important one. Hence, a uniformed officer and officer of good moral character will receive consideration.

ELKS DENY THEY MADE PEACE MOVE Fight Against Grand Lodge Must Go on Through the Courts. SAY ACTION UNETHICAL Rumor of Meeting Termed Fact Distortion. RICHMOND, Va. — Emphatic denial that he had attempted in any way to settle the difficulties of the Virginia Elks and the Grand Lodge out of court as reported last week by the press, were sent to the AFRO by Joseph R. Pollard, attorney for the Virginia body, this week.

ANDERSON, Jr WASHINGTON, D. C. The defeat of Judge John J. Parker for a place on the United States Supreme Court bench was the greatest political victory of the Negro within the last forty years. Due credit for that victory belongs to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People with compliments to Walter White and the Negro press. the appointment of Henderson and Hueston. If the Negroes of Indiana and Kansas allow themselves to be political footballs for their Senatorial representatives and fail to support the N.A.A.C.P. in its second march, they are doomed to political defeat. Those words from the lips of the wise daughter of William Jennings Bryan are worthy of consideration and the sooner the Negro demands such attention his status in American politics will be unique and not worthy. Rebson's Stand Courageous The black man must learn to show Senators and Representatives that it The failure of the Senate to confirm Parker was only the first march of the N.A.A.C.P.'s victory. The second march lies farther ahead and it is in this march that the strength of the Negro as a political factor is to be displayed. Defeat Every Pro-Parker Senator The campaign of the N.A.A.C.P. is to defeat every Senator that ignored the consideration due his Afro-American constituents. The plain issue of this campaign is to show each Senator that he must acknowledge the wishes of all his constituents, with partiality to none because of color, this his failure to fulfill this obligation will mean the withdrawal of votes by those constituents who have been neglected. But the question is, will the Negro solidly support the program of the N.A.A.C.P., or will its fight in defeating Parker be forgotten? If each Senator that voted for Parker is re-elected with the support of the Negro vote it will mean that the fight of the association will have been patially in vain, that a Senator may continue to vote without giving consideration to his Afro-American constituents and still count upon their support at election time. The Negro cannot expect political recognition if he votes for men who ignore him when questions of paramount interest arise which concern his group, an deocrineize him only near election day. Mrs. Owen's Policy The best illustration of the N.A.A.C.P.'s campaign might be taken from the philosophy of Mrs Ruth Bryan Owen, now a Congresswoman from Florida. Mrs. Owen was one of the Democrats in the House who left her party organization and voted with the Republicans for higher duties in the present tariff bill. She took the party to the Senate, where certain increases in rates in which her Florida constituents were particularly interested. Mrs. Owen, the daughter of the late William Jennings Bryan, a stalwart Democrat and three times his party's candidate for the presidency, is fondening her alignment with the Republicans for the present tariff bill, said: "My idea is that a member of Congress is elected to carry out the wishes of his constituents and not to vote or express his own convictions. If his opinions are contrary to the will of Congress, he sent him to Congress, it is his duty to reflect that sentiment instead of his own view. "The sentiment in Florida was overwhelmingly in favor of the way I voted. Whatever personal views I may have had did not weigh with me in the face of that fact. I voted the way my people wanted and that is what I intend to do as long as I am here. Allen and Watson are Clever It was this philosophy that the N.A.A.C.P. attempted to have Senators Allen, Watson and others understand during the Parker controversy, but the distinguished Senators found reasons to ignore the request for a vote, and thus they voted for Parker's confirmation. In a few months they are up for reelection and a clever method to iron out the Negro's memory was to tender some popular self-styled race leader a Federal appointment. Attorney Henderson, of Kansas, was selected by Mr. Allen to fill Perry Howard's old place as Special Assistant in the Department of Justice. Allen one better and created a "brand new job" for Judge Hueston of Indiana in the Post Office Department as Special Solicitor. Both are good men and well qualified to fill their particular positions, and no one should blame them for accepting the appointments. But, the question behind the curtain is, why did the Republican Administration wait so long to recognize the Negro for a federal appointment? The answer is simple but true. Witnesses soon for reelection and to pacify the Negroes who objected to their stand in 'the Parker case and to offset the N.A.A.C.P.'s program they procured The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, August, 2, 1930 the appointment of Henderson and Hueston. If the Negroes of Indiana and Kansas allow themselves to be political footballs for their Senatorial representatives and fail to support the ACA, they are less secure, march they are doomed to political defeat. Those words from the lips of the wise daughter of William Jennings Bryan are worthy of consideration and the sooner the Negro demands such attention his status in American politics will be unique and noteworthy. Robson's Stand Courageous The black man must learn to show Senators and Representatives that it is better and more viable for a Congressman to change his vote to please his constituents than put the state to the trouble of changing its Congressman. He must learn to vote for men such as Senator Robbion of Kentucky, who was one of the first men in Congress to "jump on the Hoover band wagon" in early 2012, a steadfast leader in Hoover and to be selected Hoover set aside whatever personal views he might have in regard to the presidential appointee, Mr. Parker, and voted to sentiment of his constituents. Mr. Robbion took the bravest stand of any man in the Senate: a stalwart Hoover advocate, he deserted the call of the man he selected for the presidency to answer the request of black constituents in Kentucky—his vote was symbolic, his stand courageous. Senator Barkley Commended Mr. Barkley, the senior Senator from Kentucky and the best friend that Kentucky school boys working their way through Howard have in the halls of Congress, joined with his junior colleague in voting the will of the people when he regardedopardized personal convictions. Such is the character of men that the N.A.A.C.P. and the Negro must see elected and re-elected to Congress. They must vote only for those men who will be fair with all their constituents regardless of race, color, or race. D.C.

WIFE TELLS STORY Mate Aids Step-Father who Fired Shot at Drunken Man. WASHINGTON.—A drunken man who would not refrain from swearing before small children brought about his own death from a bullet fired by his father-in-law, a coroner's jury was told Wednesday in an inquest at the District Morgue. Eugene Brooks, 56, of 918 Third Street, sw, was held by the coroner's jury for the action of the grand jury in connection with the slaying of Ernest Green, 33, of 66 M Street, sw. Green was shot with a 38-calibre revolver in front of 19 as he stood in front of the Third Street address He was taken to the Provident Hospital where he died July 22 from the shot which punctured his lung. At Lawn Party Mrs. Mary Green, wife of the deceased, testified: "There was a children's lawn party two doors from my father's home. I was watching them when my husband came up. He was brunk and began swearing about when I would hear with an oath, 'If you can go home now, I'll fix you when I get you down the street.' My step-father warned him about the cursing. He said to my husband, 'Why not respect those small children even if you do not respect the grown people?' My husband then began to cursum me, he said many words a shrewd out, and my husband fell to the movement." Tells of Beatings Mrs. Green also testified that her mate had beaten her many times and failed to support her. She stated that she was forced, often to go to Mr Brooks's house to secure food. Mrs. Martha Brooks, wife of Eugene, upon the advice of counsel, did not testify.

ARGUMENT HEARD—24 pt. ..... (Washington Bureau of the AFRO) WASHINGTON—Final arguments in the case of Peter P. Richardson, young attorney, who is charged with misrepresentation in accepting the sum of $150 from an elderly North Carolina minister to free his son from prison, were heard Tuesday, when the judges took it under advisement for a later decision. The case was called before the four judges of the police court sitting en banc, composed of: Justices Gus A. Schuldt, presiding, Isaac R. Hitt, Ralph Given, and John P. McMahon. The complaining witness against Mr. Richardson at a previous hearing was the Rev. H. D. Roberts, a retired minister of the A.M.E. Church. He testified that the attorney telephoned him by long distance for the money when he had learned that his son was dead. Young Roberts, the youthful offender, was charged with grand larceny, which was reduced to petit larceny. He was sentenced to serve 180 days at Occoquan, but was paroled by Judge Given. Learning of this move by the court, Mr. Richardson is said to have been charged with Roberts on the phone and asked for $150 which the Rev. Roberts testified he was caused to think was for the payment of a fine. Dr. John R. Hawkins delivered the check to the attorney and testified relative to delivering the check. Opening the case, District Prosecutor Neil Berkinshaw said: "Testimony in this case discloses two sharply divergent pictures. Taking the angle of the prosecution: a member of the bar learning that his client was to be placed on probation, capitalized the fact, and procured from the clerkyman the sum of $150 upon representation that it was a fine to procure the boy's release. We have the testimony in behalf of the defendant that $150 was received; it is compensation for legal services in the case. The man had paid $25. This young lawyer thought he saw a way to secure additional money. He capitalized on the fact that the man was going to be released. He telephoned the father and said that the boy would be turn- Pain Caused Would-be Suicide to Reconsider WASHINGTON —Despondent Dorothy Potter, 25, of 1928 Eighteenth Street, nw., domestic, attempted to end it all Thursday by drinking part of the contents of a small bottle of boiling water.

She was given first aid treatment, pronounced out of danger, and allowed to remain at home. ed loose but he would have to have $150. "To reach a focal point we must consider the weight of the testimony of the witnesses. Consider the father a preacher of the Word of God, who displayed a brilliant intellect, hardly to be matched in this court. He stated representation was made that the money was for a fine. "The defendant said he was collecting the fees for services. It is not the orthodox method to collect bills over long distance phone." Claim it was Fine George A. C. Hayes of the firm of Howard and Hayes, defending Richardson, arose at the close of Mr. Berkinshaw's argument. Addressing himself to the point raised by Mr. Berkinshaw that a "fine fee" was requested, Mr. Hayes told the court there was possibility of error in mistaking the word "final" for the word "fine." Hayes said: "Mr. Richardson testified that he asked the man to send the balance on his fee. He may have stated 'final fee.' It is significant that Mr. Roberts testified that he said 'fine fee.'" "When he was asked for the money, because of his relationship with Dr. John R. Hawkins, the father sent the check to him to take care of the charter. Dr. Hawkins ensured the check that it was sent to Mr. Richardson. Mr. Roberts also testified that in his letter of transmittal he asked Dr. Hawkins to pay a fine, but the letter was not produced." Referring to a receipt for $25 made by Mr. Richardson to Rev. Roberts for the first payment, Mr. Hayes stated: "It would have been better for Mr. Richardson to have stated on the receipt 'for retainer's fee,' or 'part fee,' but in the absence of these it should not be taken as an indication of final pay. In the closing arguments by Mr. Berkishaw, he asked the court to contrast the two men and think which would have the more or the less to gain in the case. Presiding Judge Schuld announced: "The court will take the matter into consideration and notify the counsel when it reaches a decision."

DR. TOWNSEND IS BEING "FRAMED" SAYS DR. VASS "He is a Victim of a Shameful Conspiracy of Leaders." WILLIAMS RAPPED President, Under Spell of Isaac, He Declares. NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Dr. A. M. Townsend, secretary of the Sunday School Board, and accused of being one of those responsible for the gang slaying of E. D. Pierson, auditor, April 18, is being framed as the victim of a shameful conspiracy of a few designing leaders, declared Dr. S. N. Vass, field secretary of the Sunday School Board of the National Baptist Convention, in a prepared statement this week. After explaining that he is giving this statement to the secular press because he is barred from the regular convention publications, Dr. Vass declares he has sent word to his' chief, Dr. L. K. Williams, that he will oppose his e-election to the convention but be bound of his belief that he is in league with leaders conspiring to ruin Townsend and disgrace the convention. Has Proof "I have proof," Dr. Vass's statement says, "that when the first news came to Dr. Williams at a banquet in Detroit, he made no mention of the auditor's death in public, but said in the presence of my informer that, in what he said, he was not the victim of Townsend and Mr. Pierson at Dr. Townsend, the auditor's murder looked very bad for the Nashville brethren." The reference of Dr. Vass to Memphis grows out of an alleged attempt believed to have been made on the life of Dr. Townsend at a meeting in Detroit, and apparently ritously shot in the foot. No one was ever arrested and the shooting was never solved, it is said. Continuing, Dr. Vass's statement says: "This (the statement made by Dr. Williams) was because Dr. Townsend was slated to be put out at Chicago, and Mr. Plerson's death interfered with the plans of the big two, who proceeded at once to use it for propagating their plans. At about the same time that Dr. Williams was expressing himself in Detroit, Dr. Isaac was busy with the detectives and investigators at the Nashville end, and when Dr. Townsend was summoned to the Sheriff's office, he found there, never having said one word of sympathy to his brother secretary. "And to show this man's vindictiveness, after he left the police and the reporters, he was put up that a doctor had murdered W Mason, who had recently moved to In- BIC By the 1st M.T.

Expects Violence "Again, in the press account of the funeral, Dr. J. C. Austin was-named among those who opposed President Williams and therefore was under suspicion. In fact, we have come to a time when any man daring to oppose President Williams is liable to be arrested, all of which if not imprisoned, then set on by thugs. "Surely we are in a terrible way, and if we are worthy of being leaders we should not re-elect Dr. Williams as president. If anybody hears of my being beaten up or assassinated at the Jubilee he need not be surprised. But none of these things move me. A convention must be rescued from such men." Blames Isaac in his statement Dr. Vass blames Dr. E.W. D. Isaac for the attitude of President Williams and the situation which has developed in convention matters Dr. Isaac, for more than a quarter of the year, has been secretary of the B.Y.P. U. Board. "My belief is," says Dr. Vass, "that an evil genius in Nashville, the secretary of the B.Y.P. U. Board, who has outlived his usefulness, has poisoned our prudent mind as a result of his liberal bobbards Dr. Williams with letters in which flattery and false statements play an important part, until the president has come under the spell of this evil genius. And he actually appears to be hypnotized by him. After the president has come under the spell for Isaac hatred, except Townsend, will not be led by him. "And one of Dr. Isaac's closest friends expressed the belief in my presence that the real cause was that Isaac wants to get his hands on the money, and Townsend will not allow him to do so, everything with which he sustains relations must pay him tribute, until now he has much property. Do you doubt this? Then investigate for yourself." The Austin Case Another reason why Dr. Vass says he will oppose the re-election of Dr. Musselman, who is running for the counting of Dr. J. C. Austin from the Foreign Mission Board. No Extradition Up to the present, the governor of Tennessee has not honored the Inventors of the tradition of Dr. Townsend and his son for trial in Scottsburg. Many of Dr. Townsend's friends say that these inventors are signed by the Tennessee governor.

LOUIS NAMES CONGRESSMAN AUGUST 5 Walthall Moore Certain He'll Defeat White Candidate, L. C. Dyer. 38,000 TO VOTE DePriest May Get Company as a Result. ST. LOUIS, Mo. (ANP)—With Walthall M. Moore, one of Missouri's two Negro representatives in the state legislature, making a determined fight to wrest the nomination for Congress from Representative L. C. Dyer, on August 5, the date of the primary, it looks as though Oscar DePriest will have company in Washington next session. Moore is certain that he will win and is making his campaign solely upon the issue of sending a Negro from St. Louis to Congress. Have Majority He is basing this confidence on the fact that the majority of the Republican voters in the district are Negroes, and that there is a strong sentiment in favor of a Negro victory growing out of the natural desire of St. Louis voters to be the next group to be represented in Congress by a Negro. Against this feeling, however, is the confidence of Congressman Dyer that he will succeed himself. It is pointed out that he has the district organization, the professional politicians and the prestige and momentum of having won consistently. He has refused to make any speeches in the district and declares that "the attempt of Mr. Moore and his adherents to raise the race issue in the district can only result in harm to Negroes." 38.000 Voters in District There are said to be about 38,000 voters in the district divided between the Republicans and the Democrats. There are approximately 14,000 Negro votes which, since most of them are Republicans, give the Republicans a majority in the Republican primary. A Negro, if nominated, would have to have white votes to win the election next fall, however, and it is therein that the danger of making a difference in the race Moore's candidacy has aroused a lot of interest among the rank and file of voters. The influence responsible for his selection, and indeed his political being, is J. E. Mitchell, editor of the St. Louis Times, and identified with practically all of the civic and more important business enterprises of St. Louis, probably would deny any ambitions to be a political boss, and yet almost everyone in the race and has worked indefeably to bring him support. Hoot Dyrer Man Down Rev. Herman Gore, a youthful Baptist preacher, who heads one of the largest churches in the city, is campaign manager Moondale, a Mountain Brook resident, those 3000 members who are almost frantically enthusiastic in support of anything their pastor undertakes, have started a campaign to spread among a certain class. So strong has it become that Rev. P. W. Donovan, of Leonard, who attempted to recruit for supporters of both candidates, was hooted down and forced to leave. Should Have Negro St. Louis has always been considered by political analysis to be the locality which ought to send the second Negro to Congress. The attack on the locality had made frequently before. Back in 1808 Dr. W. A. Scott ran for the nomination on the Republican ticket. In 1820 Robert N. Owens, an attorney ran on the Farmer-Labor ticket. He dominated but lost in the election. Dr. C. H. Phillips ran in 1910. Drew beat him. George Vaughn ran in 1922. Drew defended him. In 1926 Homer G. Phillips, who still is regarded by many as a logical opponent, was Drew. But Vaughn also was in the race, so Dyer won again. In 1928 Frances McLemore won the Democratic nomination. With Smith, she won the race, but that looked like a golden opportunity, but the Negroes did not cast their votes on the basis of race and could not forget their Republicanism, because it was a national election. McLemore polled at 17,000 votes, because of them white. He lost by about 6,000. Praises Moore Friends of Moore declare that while Dyer has not given any Negro a job that he would have done, Moore had been responsible for the appointment of a pure food inspector who receives more than $200, and who has been given the state legislature he had done more than Dyer had done during his whole service in Congress. Asked what his platform was, candidate Moore said: "I have no platform save that of Negroes." He said this for this distict. I'm going to win on it, too. Dyer knows he's beaten. I have just finished checking the registration lists. This is an off year, and registration is light, but I checked 17,000 Negroes for 14,000 white. I'll be the Republican nominee on August 5."

Its autonomous position, however, is not for lack of interest, since it is larger than the republic of France; it has a delightful and healthful climate, and its economic resources have large possibilities.

PYTHIAN ELECTION LEFT BITTER TASTE Opponents of Watty See Chicateryn in Sudden Change of Program. GRISFIELD, MN—Was the re-election of George W. Watty as grand chancellor of Maryland Polytechnics, here last week, the result of a election engineered coup which caught his opponents off their guard and placed him again on the throne before the opposing forces could be marshaled for action? This is the opinion of many who attended the annual convention and are still in a quandary as to why the election was suddenly changed from Wednesday to Tuesday. This manifold situation with suspicion by many who think uterior designs caused the change. Some even intimate that the election was rushed through at this time because the supporters of George W.F. Bekench, strongest opponent of Watty, did not attend the day and it was suspected that he would corral a number of supporters on the following day, may be sufficient to unseat the present incumbent. J. Finley Wilson, a past master at staging steam-roller elections at the Eldersburg office of Elks, was suddenly pressed into service and presided as the election was speedily put through while many were still mapping the site of the McMechen, who was nominated by Lonnie Branch, are certain that both he and James Stewart of Sallisbury, who was paired with the exchequer, again Herbert St. Clair would have won had not the election day been changed. **Officers Elected** Besides the officers in theeller, the following officers were chosen: 101004WLW-0000 were Ghoshchip be the Warehouse chancellor; Rev.

HUACHUCA Lot of Negro Soldiers Made Hard by Intolerable Conditions. WIVES MUST WORK Families of Privates Driven from Homes Like Dogs. FORT HUACHUCA, Ariz.-Charges of military slavery filed by William Pickens of the N.A.A.C.P. with President. However recently were borne out by the wife of a soldier at this post in a letter published in the Kansas City Call, this week. Picturing the homes of soldiers as less than squatters' huts, devoid of sanitary facilities, and discipline so rigid that it would be irksome even in wartime, the wife tells a revolting story of intolerable conditions for Negro soldiers and their families at the fort. Privates Barred Privates are not permitted to keep their wives on the post, although white privates of the Signal Corps white civilians and Mexicans are living in homes originally intended for the soldiers, and Colored wives are forced to get out like dogs. Anybody can get quarters at the fort except the soldiers' families, she declares, although Fort Lewis is the home to the be the home of the Negro soldiers. White Wives Run Fort The wives of the white officers practically run the fort, the writer points out, heaping all sorts of indulgences upon them, and the wives as well. No colored wife can stay on the post without working for some officer's wife or in the laundry. Even a mother of five children, the oldest of which was 12 years old, can stay on the reservation has a soldier to help him, but the soldier does all the work and the wife must stay on the reservation. Wives of colored soldiers employed as personal servants of the officers wives are paid as low as $15 or $20 a month and if they quit their jobs they are paid as low as $10 or White City, six miles sway. Rigid discipline makes the life of the soldier that of practical slavery.

TRENTON, N.J. — Smarting under the sting of *cuffs* at the hands of the G.O.P., 200 men and women gathered in convention sponsored by the Independent Progressive Political Organization, and 1- effect informed the Republican party that in the future it could go hang, so far as they are concerned. From the very moment that the Baltimore group reached Duncan Thursday night, they were locally entertained by C. C. Spaulding, president of the company, and the executive committee and other officials. Laying at its door the present unemployment, uncertainty and double-crossing tactics of leaders, the unexcusable conduct of Senators Kearn and Baird in voting for Judge John J. Parker, and flaying Perry W. Howard for coming into the state to work for these men, the meeting teemed with interest and applauds from beginning to end. The basis on which one of the districts are entertained annually is the district which makes the largest contribution to the company display the calendar year is given a tree to the company's headquarters a silver loving cup, which stands for feet high, is given for possession and till the coveted prize is won by another district. Speakers at the meeting paid special attention to the campaign made by Howard for the renomination of Kean. The Baltimore district, which is under the management of Mr. Cox, and again, were the winners in 1920 and she tendered a free trip this year. "If there was ever a man who should tell the Republicans to go to hell, it is Perry Howard," declared a speaker. It was charged that Howard owed his neck to Kean, and to repay him. Howard stumped Morrow; at the time making excuses for Kean's vot: on Parker. The loving cup is given in honor of the late Mr. John Moe and Dr. Brom M. Moe.

Harris, Leroy Jackson, W. E. Harris, George Boste, George Carr, Mrs. Annie Hickle, and David Deane. The convention went on record as favoring the following things: 1. The Negro vote must be split. 2. Negro organizations must purge the Negro vote. 3. Places enjoying Negro patronage must give them employment. 4.

UNCOVER SECRET Black Engineers May Revolutionize Flying. LOS ANGELES.—An invention of a Negro engineer that bids fair to completely revolutionize aviation has been perfected and a company organized to place the new machine on the market. J. H. Montgomery, a graduate of the Colorado School of Mines, is the proud inventor, who has at last mastered the secret of the soaring flight of the vulture and the eagle. His plan to construct aeroplane wings on the order of a bird's wing instead of the present plan has innumerable advantages he has proven to engineers from all sections of the country, convincing them so completely that the Vortex Wing Company, with a large capital outlay, to back the project. Montenegro's conviction that a rigid vulture-type wing made for aircraft would be superior to the present airplane by tripling its lifting power, motor horsepower and thrust, increasing the speed 150 per cent, sustaining landing speed 60 per cent, taking off distance 90 per cent, and reducing fuel consumption and load weight, brought about formation of the local company a year ago. Worked 18 Years Menkonem has been at work 18 years experimenting with all types of birds. He began while connected with the Gutenbergheim in the 1960s he became convinced from watching cages and cultures soaring all day without moving their wings that the little secret lay in their wing construction. Since then he has killed nearly 20 birds and their wings compiling facts with their wings compiling facts. From his years of inquiry he has found that the wing of a vulture as a whole is an airfoil—a lifting surface—but that it is an airfoil in sections to allow it to be attached to the tip from the shoulder to the tip in a twist on a 45 degree angle. an cross-section: that each of the twenty-three feathers is an airfoil, and that each feather is made up of three airfoils, or feathers within these facts will be used in the construction of the airplane wings. The feathered principle will be reproduced by stamping in the metal in exact proportion the details of a vulture. The demonstration of a model, achieving sixteen and one-half pounds with a wing spread of sixty inches, shooting forward into a thirty-mile and created by proponents, apparently convinced the engineers present the extinct monkey has mastered soaring flight.

TENTACLES OF U.S. JIM CROW STRETCH OUT TENTACLES OF U.S. JIM CROW STRETCH OUT French Journalist Sees "Monstrous" Treatment Spreading to Central America. PANAMA CHANGED It Faces American Policy of Dealing with Negroes. (Paris Bureau of the Aro-American) PARIS—Is American jim-crowman about to stretch its tentacles over the rest of the New World? This seems to be the opinion of M. Maurice Rondet-Saint, one of the leading French journalists. In a long article in La Depche Couverte college of the North Americans the Black he the treatment of Negroes in the Northern States, the South, Panama, and Haiti. "The United States." he says, "appears to me. judging from my recent trips to America, about 10 of my hand was on Central America and then on South America. Illustrates American Policy This, he says, illustrates very clearly the American policy in dealing with crowds in Panama, while there is no jim crow in the republic, there is the part owned by the United States. He remembered said, "I had a shocker. How did he shocked a gentleman was when he saw me seated on a bench, which was marked: 'For Colored Patrons Only.' How coming to me he pointed out my error. Is "Monstrous" All in all, the treatment of the Negro in America appears "monstrous" to M. Rondet-Saint. The North Americans have changed much since the days of slavery, he says, "but their mentality regarding Negroes has not changed." "One still finds the imprint of slavery in the treatment of the blacks who serve you in hotels, sleeping-cars, steamships. They have inherited the treatment that was their grandfathers. They are a class apart, relegated to the rear in a society that is marching in the full nonday of progress." France, he concludes, still has two colonies in the West Indies therefore, "the American doctrine regarding the domination and government of colored people," is of interest. PREACHER HELD ON 33-YEAR-OLD MURDER Think Louisiana Whites Want Possession of Land in Belated Arrest. OWNS 968 ACRES St. Louis Minister Denies He Slew Doctor in 1897. ST. LOUIS, Mo.-Ulterior motives on the part of white people in Louisiana is blamed here for the arrest. of the Rev. Charles B. Gugenhine, 63 on charges of murder said to have been committed 33 years ago. A sheriff from Louisiana, accompanied by two white men who gave their names as Tyson, one a banker, motored to St. Louis to carry the aged man back. The sheriff gave as his excuse for failing to cause the arrest previously that he had promised the family of the murdered man, a white doctor, that he would bring the murderer to justice if it took a lifetime. Owner 968 Acres Lawyers for the accused man point out that Gughenline was the owner 68 and homosexual, and stated recently that has been discovered in the vicinity and the white people seek to get control of this property. This, they claim, accounts for the anxiety to press the belated Gughenline declares that he has been in Louisiana since the crime was alleged to have been committed and was made to arrest him because the prosecution and all the witnesses are now dead. Denies Murder The minister denies that he murdered the doctor, but that he was involved in the tragedy. The doctor with a deputy sheriff, came to his house to be coached by an ex-aboritor and he refused to pay. He soiled the doctor from behind and the sheriff fired at him striking the doctor. He was forced to flee for his life and went to St. Louis where he changed his name from Allen to Brigitte Morning Star Baptist Church. The presence of the banker with the sheriff strengthens the contention of the accused man's lawyers that the case is being pressed for financial assistance in the St. Louis courts to prevent Gugenhine from being extradited. Victim in Bootleg Row, Gets Reprieve PHILADELPHIA. — What would have been regarded as a legal lynching was averted this week when the interracial Peace Committee, Theodore Russ, of Woodside, Dcl., sentenced to hang on a criminal assault charge a reprieve by the Governor. Russ' conviction grew out of a fight in the home of alleged bootleggers in New York City, and he failed to take a jug from him following a price dispute. As a second thought, she accused him of criminality. Russ will have until August 22, to make a new move for freedom. The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, August, 2, 1930 DOWNINGTOWN PREFERS GOOD TEACHERS TO GOOD BUILDINGS DOWNINGTOWN, Pa.—The teacher is the school, her importance is its importance, the faith in her perseverance, the strength in maxim, the truth of which is illustrated at Downingtown Industrial School. She has a very limited income, it has had to choose between a first-class teaching staff on the one hand and such physical assets as equipment and repairs to building. In the latter, Downingtown has chosen good teachers. In September, 1923, Downingtown opened with only one teacher remaining from the faculty: of the previous year. One New Teacher In September, 1930, it will open with only one new teacher, as was the case in 1929. It will now provide an average of 4.3 years. G. B.

PASTOR BOLDLY DEFIES BOSTON NUMBERS KINGS Condemns Gambling Even Though He's "Put on Spot." 1.000 LISTEN Dr. Williams Accepts Underworld Issue. BY C. ELLIOTT FREEMAN, JR. BOSTON, Mass.—Ignoring the defiance recently hurled by the powerful "numbers racketeers" that no clergyman of Greater Boston dare use his pulpit in co-operation with the drive now going on against them by the police, because the men of the cloth receive their support mostly by the winnings made by the members of the church, the Rev. Dr. C. Calvin Williams, pastor of the Columbus Avenue A.M.E. Zion Church accepted the challenge when he delivered his evening sermon to over 1,000 worshipers, Sunday, taking for his subject, "Playing the Fool, or Numbers—Which?" The dynamic clergyman made three distinct appeals in his sermon: common sense, racial pride, and a religious appeal. He also told the common sense of the players he dwelt at length on the number of chances a player has to win, saying that there was only one chance in a thousand to "hit the numbers straight," ten chances in a thousand to hit a "bleeder," and only six chances in a thousand to hit a "bleeder" with any common sense would play a game of chance with such great odds against them. According to Dr. Williams, who seemed to be well informed on the "numbers racket," many thousands of dollars in insurance policies are held by the players holders use their last quarter or dime to "play the numbers" instead of protecting their homes in case of death by keeping up their insurance. He also mentioned the fact that many business men as well as professional men are suffering because of the "numbers rucketeer," who is often the hardest, because he refuses to use common sense in the effort to try and get something for nothing. In his racial pride appeal, the minister declared that no man or woman with any degree of race pride would support any game when it is referred to by the daily papers as "migger pool." To do so, said Dr. Williamson on his website, the umpire hited at our race by the opposite race, and at a time when colored leaders and the united colored press is striving so hard to prevent the use of such words. No Compromise "I will not compromise the teachings of Jesus Christ, even though I am 'put on the spot' or 'taken for a ride,' declared the Rev. Williams, when he criticised severely men and women who neglect their families to play the numbers." The children are lost every day by working men and women of the race when their children are ragged and underfed," he said. Why Numbers Secrecy? In his religious appeal, he declared (the day is, that of, number playing, the day is, that of, number playing, "If it is no sin to play the numbers here, there is no sin to play the game carried on secretly? Why do the runners not make public their business? If it is not made public, doesn't the state or county grant licenses, instead of making raids and arrests? It is purely gambling here, not a sin." declared Dr. Williams. FOREST FIRE THREATENS LEONADTOWN, MD. LEONARDTOWN, Md. — A large forest fire, which is beyond control is burning in Macintosh Swamp, and looks to be headed this way. It was discovered in a tract of timber of the Henrico Lumber Company of Washington, which supplies mulp wood for paper mills. The government's fire department fought the blaze for two days. Over 500 acres have been burned over, and 800 cords of oak wood have been destroyed being in the path of the fire. Wild game has been destroyed. Divorced Oklahoma Oil King Takes First Love as Bride MUSKETE, Oklahoma — The tangled love affair of a young millionaire Creek Indian oil king and his first love finally culminated in the marriage of pretty Thelma Bozeman and Jerry Moore, aunt of the king. The wedding took place one day after Manual's divorce from Louise Fay Moore, of Kansas City, which cost him $11,000, all of which he refused to marry him when they were childhood sweethearts. Pastor Predicts Own Death RIPLEY, Miss., (ANP.) — Death wn at Union Hill (Negro) Baptist Church on the Tippah-Bent County line when "Uncle Bent" Ingram, veteran minister of the Church, group of friends, "I am, going in to make my last speech; I am dying."

He did not speak again although he lived until the following day. MORE PENNA. STATE NEWS ON PAGE 2 Famous Resort in Blue Ridge Mountains MOUNTAIN VIEW HOUSE 62 miles from Washington by auto.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (1906) Macon, Georgia, is surred up because someone gave to the Associated Press a statement the white women of that city were giving their illegitimate children to colored women to raise. The character is now being made that city is no worse than other communities; the preacher in commenting on it, stated that if these things are true, they ought to get out to world life and not allowed to get out to world life. Macon, Georgia, is surred up because someone gave to the Associated Press a statement that the white women of that city were wearing their illegitimate children to colored women to raise.

Shaw Trustees are NOT TRUSTED Shaw Trustees are NOT TRUSTED "Dr. J. L. Peacock has stated to some of the trustees more than once that he had not intended to remain longer than ten years, but that he would never be driven out of any position he might be in by misrepresentations and unfair treatment." The paragraph above is quoted from a statement issued by the trustees of Shaw University, Raleigh, North Carolina, last week. Its importance lies in the fact that it explains why Dr. Peacock, white president of Shaw, has managed to hold office for three years despite the open hostility of students, trustees and alumni. It appears unusually strange that a college president should tell his trustees that he expects to remain in office willy nilly for ten years. However a little further on in the trustees' statement occurs this paragraph. "It is not generally known that the trustees of Shaw University have no authority in the creation of any office, or in the election of anyone to fill an office, in the election of any member of the faculty of Shaw University, or power rests solely, as it always has, from the beginning of the institution, with the officials of the American Baptist Home Mission Society (white)." According to Webster's Dictionary, a trustee board is "a body of man, often elective, who hold the property and manage the affairs of a church or public institution." At Shaw, trustees have never managed the affairs of the university because, says the report, "they have never had the funds to administer to the school's affair." These funds have always been supplied by the white brethren of the American Epistle Home Mission Society. In other words, Shaw University trustees are but figure-heads and the old adage holds true—the man who pays the fiddler calls the dance. According to Webster's Dictionary, a trustee board is "a body of man, often elective, who hold the property and manage the affairs of a church or public institution." At Shaw, trustees have never managed the affairs of the university because they report "they have never had the power to administer to the school's affairs." These funds have always been supported by the white bride of the Anglican Baptist Home Mission Society. In other words, Shaw University trustees are but figure-heads and the old adage holds true—the man who pays the fiddler calls the dance. Schuyler's Foul Mr. George S. Schuyler writing in last week's Pittsburgh Counter indicted Dr. R. R. Moton, chairman of the Haiti Education Commission, as an "Uracle Tom" on two counts: 1. He, with his commissioners, sang spirituals in Haiti and on board ship returning to the U.S.A. 2. He visited chauffeurs of his party to dinner with him when he stopped for lunch at a Haitian hotel, in Gonaives. Mr. Schuyler's number one argument is silly. Left to pass away the long hours of a five-day voyage, some passengers played bridges others staged a beauty show, and still others sang spirituals and read Negro poetry aloud. Had Mr. Schuyler be aware that the singers also warbled "Suwanne Ribber," he might have availed himself of real ammunition. On the question of the inferiority complex, Dr. Moton's challenge to "Jackass" Smuts in New York, his defiance of the Klan in Alabama, and his refusal to endorse Judge Parker the request of President Hoover, all were remembered there, any bandana frontispaces to Moton volume, "What the Negro Thinks." Argument two is wholly false, because the order for chauffeurs and commissioners to eat at the same table was given by Dr. Carl Colvin, white chief of the U.S. Educational Service in Haiti. Dr. Moton was 100 miles away in his hotel, not having made the tour referred to. Had Mr. Schuyler read carefully the article from which he made his hasty conclusion, he would not have made this gross error. For one who, like Mr. Schuyler, can hit hard there ought never be any necessity for striking below the belt. Mr. Schuyler's number one argument is silly.

Dr. Moton's challenge to "Jackass" Smuts in New York, his defiance of the Klan in Alabama, and his refusal to endorse Judge Parker at the request of President Hoover, are too well remembrered. Nor is there any bandana frontispice to the Moton volume, "What the Negro Think." Argument two is wholly false, because the枪 for chaufferies and commissioners at the same table was given by the Cohin, white, chief of the U. Educational Service in Hatti. Dr. Moton was 100 miles away in his hotel, not having made the four referred to. Had Mr. Schuyler read carefully the article from which he made his hasty conclusion, he would not have made this gross error. For one who, like Mr. Schuyler, can hit hard, there ought never be any necessity for striking below the belt. Whoa, Georgia! In Atlanta, Georgia. Mr. E. E. Shipp, white, lost a $10,000 suit against the Coca-Cola Company in the State Supreme Court because Shipp's law required him to color the question. In the lower court, Shipp was given the $10,000 verdict because he said he drank broken glass and alleged that the company was at fault because it employs NEGRO women inspectors in its bottling plant. This evidence and reference to Negro women inspectors in the argument of counsel for the plaintiff was reversible grounds, the Supreme Court ruled. "The law takes no care as to color" the Supreme Court stated. "The law knows no color indeed is color light. The goddess of justice is associated with bandaged eyes in order that she may not know nor see either sutor. Whether persons performing a duty imposed by law are Caucaisians, or Africans, Chinamen, Japanse and Indians is immaterial." Too bad it is that Georgia's Supreme Court wasted these high sentiments on the subject of a broken bottle, for everybody knows about its reactionary decisions on cases involving law guaranteeing Negroes the right to vote, to live anywhere or to ride in Pullman cars. On these subjects, no Georgia Supreme Court ever grew enthusiastic. In Atlanta, Georgia, Mr. E. E.

Thoughtful Negroes trust, that Senator Capper's colleague, Senator Henry Allen (Rep, Kas.), believes the N.A.A.C. will matter whether wheat goes up or down. The N.A.A.C. has sent Mr. William Pickens to campaign a "stain" Senator Allen throughout the State. Reason- Allen voted for Judge Parker Where More Lynchings Will Occur Where More Lynchings Will Occur Moved by the attack of Senator Blease (Dem, G.C.) on the Constitution and his glorification of lynchings, as well as by the epidemic of lynchings which has recently beset the South, the United Press secured statements from governors of seven Southern states last week condemning lynching and urging strict observance of the spirit and letter of the law. Governor Hardman of Georgia, which State has had three lynchings in the first six months of his term, said: "I opposed to mob violence in any form." Vocal opposition stops no mobs, and well known is this to six white men who went on trial last week in Atlanta, Georgia, for the lynching of Dennis Hubert, innocent theological student. Governor Gardner of North Carolina said lynching is morally wrong and fundamentally destructive of the rights of the people. His state has had two lynchings this year, and no one has been punished. "There can be no justification for lynching," declared Governor John G. Richards, of South Carolina, who has been governor for four years which have been without lynchings until this year when two persons have done to death by mobs. No one has been punished. When Mr. Richards became governor four years after the country was shocked by the monstrous lynching of a family of three Lowmans at Akenin in his state. Investigators uncovered the names of the lynchers and gave them to the Governor Richards who, before taking office, said: "I think the honor of the State demands that these lynchers be punished." That was in 1927, but no mobbist has been failed, no lyncher hung. Biggest hypocrite of all is Governor Dana of Texas. The lynching record of this term is as follows: 1921—one, 1922—two, 1923—three, 16 (months)—three. Texas increases yearly in hideous brutally unbodied, who last week, discussing lynching, said: "A awless execution at the hands of a murder . . . and every participation is guilty of violating both the law of man." Troops sent by this same Governor Moody to halt a lynching at Sherman recently, quoted him as giving this order: "Hold the mob off if you can, but don't shoot anybody." Result: mobs lynched; burned courthouse singing, "Happy days are here again!" Governor Moody's soldiers locked, and did no shooting. Three other governors not only voiced moral opposition to mobs in the United Press statement, but said what they intended to do about it. Governor Sampson, Kentucky, said: "All the power of the state will be commanded to protect the most humble in Kentucky. In his four-year, Kentucky had two lynchings. Governor Long of Louisiana—no lynchings in two years—said: "My policy . . . to compel law enforcement." Governor Pollard, of Virginia, entered office January 1, 1930, no lynchings, said: "Every power invested in me by law will be used to prevent any blot." Careful consideration of these statements by likely lynchers of the seven states would lead to the conviction that lynching will go on as usual in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Texas. It is also evident that mobs of Louisiana, Kentucky and Virginia run a risk unless they can complete their work before the arrival of state militia instructed to preserve order at any cost. Equally as frank statement from other Southern governors would provide Tuskegee's Research Institute to the N.A.A.C.P. with the material to block off the lynching belt as easily as a weather forecaster does his job. Moved by the attack of Senator Blease (Dem., S.G.) on the Constitution and his glorification of lynchings, as well as by the epidemic of lynchings which has recently beset the South, the United Press secured statements from governors of seven Southern states last week condemning lynching and urging observance of the latter of the law. spirit and letter.

Investigators uncovered the names of the lynchers and gave them the Richards who, before taking off, said: "I think the honor of the people deserves those lynchers punished." That was in 1927, but no host has been called, no lynch hung. Biggest hypocrite of all is Governor Dan Moody of Texas. The lynching record of his term is as follows: 1921—one, 1928—two, 1929—three, 1930—6 months)—three. Texas increases yearly in hideous brutality under Moody, who has discussed lynching, salied: "A lawless execution at the hands of a mob is murder ... and every participant in the violation of the law of man." Traops sent by this same Governor Moody to halt a lynching at Sherman recently, quoted him as giving this order: "Hold the mob off if you can, but don't shoot anybody." Lynched man: "I'm singing. 'Happy days are here, again!' Governor Moody's soldiers took him, did no shooting. Three other governors not only voiced moral opposition to mobs in the United Press statement, but said what they intended to do about it.

Governor Pollard, of Virginia, entered office January 1, 1930. no lynchings, said: "Every power vested in me by law will be used to prevent any blot." Careful consideration of these statements by like-mindeders of the seven states would lead to the conviction that lynching will go on as usual in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Texas. It is also evident that mobs of Louisiana, Kentucky and Virginia run a risk unless they can complete their work before the arrival of state militia instructed to preserve order at any cost. Equally as frank a statement from other Southern governors would provide Tuskegee's Research Center with a bell, with the material block off the lynching belt, as easily as a weather gagger does his job. The Provident Hospital Slackers The Provident Hospital Slackers Two and a half years after Baltimore subscribed $174,726 to Provident limit only $50,000 has been collected. The statement run last week as an advertisement in the AFRO-AMERICAN, divided the unpaid balance into three portions: Two and a half years after Baltimore subscribed $174,726 to Provident Hospital only $60,000 has been issued. Trustees in a statement run last week as an advertisement in the AFRO-AMERICAN, divided the unpaid balance into three portions: 1. $28,500, balance due on pledges of those who are paying quarterly. 2. $20,627,87, unpaid subscriptions of 1,000 persons who cannot be found. 3. $65,500, pledged to 3,000 persons who have incurred damage despite the fact that notice costing $1,500 in postage and printing have been sent to them. The AFRO suggests that the hospital trustees publish when the pledge payment time expires, the names of those who promised and paid not. Omitting a very small number of persons who have not paid because of financial reverses, we believe that a list would show a surprising number of churches, lodges, and professional people, who can pay, but who just haven’t. Publication of such a list would indicate to Baltimore hospital institutions of integrity, who are minded to mind who say when they mean no, and who are those who are otherwise normal except that they seek to “Keep up with the Joneses.” Publication of such a list would make it available to other committees who must make campaigns for public funds. Next year’s community workers would save time and patience if they, by consulting the Provident Hospital “dead list,” the in 1830 Dr. Felix Packard, the Rev. William Fraternity and Professor Banneker Howard each subscribed $100 and that not paid one dime on their pledges. In rare cases, an individual is unable to keep a pledge of honor. There is however no excuse for a church, a fraternal order or a professional man—not a declared bankrupt—falling to carry out his contract. If Baltimore has 1,000 persons who have gotten lost in three years, the rest of us ought to know it. If Baltimore has 3,000 bankrupts who haven’t yet asked for a receiver, we ought to know that.

To understand, this it is necessary to recall that the Maryland Peninsula, because of its isolation across the bay is as virulent and violent in its prejudices against Negroes as many States of the South. Asked by Mrs. Laura J. Wheatley to give her a letter of identification which she might use in case of emergency on a European journey Senator Goldsborough dictated a letter in which he referred to the fact that Mrs. Wheatley heads the "Baltimore Federation of Parent-Teachers (COLORED)." It never occurred to the Senator that Mrs Wheatley's color wouldn't be a matter that needed to be mentioned in Europe, and that in Berlin or Paris she would be "a lady" not "a COLORED lady." Mr. Goldsborough is one of those Senators who voted for Judge John J. Parker as an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, even though he knew that Judge Parker was opposed to Negro suffrage. Need anything else be cited to indicate that he cannot get rid of his Eastern Shore birthmark?

Hoover First President Since Wilson to Offer Respond Insults to the Negro People. To the Editor: The Hoover administration. It appears, was unable to allow such a golden opportunity to pass without once more spearing into the collective face of the Negro race another grave insult. Since the federal administration has so often gone out of its deliberately and needlessly to offend the Negro, Mr. Hoover, for the short time he has been in the White House, has done more to make the Negroes' loyalty to America than any President since the解放. The seeds which his administration is now sowing may well bear abundant and luscious fruits when the nation again calls upon the Negro to bear arms in its defense. As an indication of the never temper which the Negro manifesting toward those who would still treat him with contumely, the action of a majority of the Negro Cold Star Mothers in refusing to accept the insult hurled at them and at the civilized womanhood of America, is re Hoover First President Since Wilson to Offer Repeated Insults to the Negro People.

"More Than Shame"—Best Editorial Which Ha Apparent on the Jim Crowing of the Gold Star Mothers, Says This Reader. To the Editor: The second editorial under the caption, "More Than Shame," which appeared in the AFRO for July 19th, is the best editorial that has come under my observation dealing with the treatment accorded by the Colored Gold Star. Another can be found in the book, "The Shame, a obedient Secretary of War in the person of Patric J. Hurley from Oklahoma." I believe that everyone is in agreement with you when you said that the department stopped to thrust the stile to the Colored Gold. Most of the things that the Mothers, except such Nets, goes as those who took pride in making comforting speeches. One editor of a certain New York paper, who took the opportunity of preaching a sermon, soothe the "everybody" of the�. "Star Mothers are with them at the City Hall in New York," went out of his way to criticize severely the officers of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People because they were conspicuous by their absence from the City Hall.

JONES Is the World All Wrong? The Baptist Jubilee. LITTLE SEVEN-YEAR-OLD Daisy Williams, Baltimore school girl, informs us that the world is all wrong. She feels that she could have made a better job of it. Don't call Daisy foolish, for, from most of the complaints we express, and the constant impulse to "reform" people and things, most of us believe that we could have suggested some changes in the cosmic creation which would have been for the benefit of mankind. For instance, this week with the mercury hovering above the 100-degree mark in most of the temperate zone, there are few who would not feel that someone in "40 below" weather which inakes the North and South poles uninterrupted, could well have been distributed over some areas that we know. And with all the water in the ocean, many will wonder why the Great Creator did not make a better circulation system whereby the of it would have been the parched green fields, where the parched greed fields, where the hardship and want for grown-ups and perhaps starving babies this fall. The fact is, the more you think of it, the more you must conclude that the Great Cosmic heat not take the welfare of human beings into consideration, into this world of ours whirled into existence. We cling to rugged mountains; we shiver in almost unberable cold on the one extreme and sweter in withering heat on the other. We have to slaughter living animals, or devour their unborn progeny, to find them. Weigh it against strength with each oar for the more favorable spots of the earth, and must wage continual war with millions of germs and other agencies of pestilence. Indeed, we spend most of our time dodging enemies, animate and inanimate. If you ask men and women, over fifty years of age, whether or not, if they had been consulted and could have had their say, they would have come into this world at all, deep down in most of their hearts the answer would be. No; yet you know that they would it is this dogged sense of humor it keeps most of us going; this, together with the hope that tomorrow will be better than today. Even at that, many thousands, unbalanced by the struggle, end it, or think they do. We take the little part of the world we live on buckles under us in earthquakes like a "bustling" bronco, or whether swollen waters drown hundreds like rats. WE CLING TO IT AND TRY TO LAUGH. Even though our cow be hard: though we spent our time in a peek at a back while others take the substance we dig out of the soil and fling it to the winds in lines of avariance and greed, we still cling on. Whether those we love plunge a cold stifle of indifference into our hearts; whether sorrows make our nights hideous worlds of darkness and despair, we rise in anger, we sniff smelling carry on most of us willing through the mist that others might have courage. Little seven-year-old Daisy, Williams could have devised a better world than this, perhaps, BUT SHE COULD NOT HAVE DEVISED A MORE DOGGED RACE OF HUMAN BEINGS. THE GREAT BAPSTEIN denomination will celebrate the Golden Jubilee of its National Convention in Chicago next month. There may be some jubilee, but all things indicate that there will be more fighting than brotherly love. It would seem that so much bitterness and hatred as now dominate the great Baptist denomination would be impossible in any body built around the meek and lowly Nazarene, but religion is one thing and human struggle another. The everyday man and woman against woman in building power on earth is more human than build-upensions in the skies. Like the great Baptist beehive which swarmed in Chicago some 20 years ago, to split into two new hives, the Baptists this year again turn toward Chicago for—what may happen, no man knows. When a beehive becomes too populous for the amount of honey or too many "queens" are produced, the hive breaks up into new hives. This is coming up to the great Baptist denomination, again. The Baptist denomination grew and prospered in America because it was made up of the poorer people. Once "The Little Church Around the Corner" in New York owned more worldly goods than all the Baptists in America. When its ministers thought enough of their religion to build their churches from tree branches and preach the gospel after hard days' work in the fields, they drew the multitude. In those days there were no churches. It was only as their churches became money-laden that lustful preachers divided the flock, and new churches swam up. Like churches, like state conventions; and like state conventions, like national convention. That great body prospered until it developed a great publishing house and then lustful "divines" got busy. This year the story is being repeated. Discussions of an attempted assassination, a gang murder, and all kinds of charges of corruption will make up the minutes of the coming session. And all of this is because too many want to control the money sources of the body. NO ONE CANOWN A PALATAL HOME, PACKARD CAR, CARRY A BIG BANK ACCOUNT, AND IMPLANT THE RELIGION OF JESUS CHRIST IN THE HEARTS OF MEN AND WOMEN. Jesus Christ, himself, would have been a forgotten historical character if he had built a mansion in Jerusalem, or ridden through its streets in a golden christ. Money which brings to the surface the greed of mankind and stiles the need for unselfishness will destroy any religion. It is destroying the great Baptist Convention. By RALP MATTHEWS Since the advent of the radio you can buy a grand piano for as little as $19. This is probably because it doesn't take half as much practice to finger the dials on a radio as it does the keys on a piano. It takes practically no talent at all to get music out of a loud speaker, but piano players never suffer from blown out tubes. Having a radio in the home may be a sign of progress, but doting mothers are robbed of the pleasure of having their offspring play chop sticks when company comes. Some people might turn up their noses at a $19 piano even those who can only do two dollars and fifteen cents playing. When player pianos were popular a lot of musicians had more education in their feet than in the fingers, and the fingers in the fingers who braved playing by ear can't hear very well if what they play is supposed to be what they heard. The reason it is such a comfort to listen to a blind pianist is because you can walk out and take smoke and he will never And the reason one musician can get more harmony out of a sheet of music than another, is because some fellows don't believe what their eyes see. It used to be the custom for musicians to wear their hair long, but they can earn enough now to get a hair cut. Most children are started off as musicians by their parents, but as they get older they outgrow it. Music may have charms to soothe the savage breast, but you seldom hear of anybody going lion hunting with a piccolo. And a cannibal is likely to be more fond of musicians than he is of music. Of course, nobody would encourage cannibals in eating human beings but would be a broken habit, there are a lot of saxophone players we would like to give them. Some people are so dumb they think you can buy a trombone in a butcher shop and think a drummer's triangle is a salesman's three-cornered love affair. A long as a pianist plays notes of love on the piano he gets along all right, but when he starts writing love notes on paper, he gets into court. Gold diggers are so smart now-a-days that when a rich sheik sings a love ballad under her hat, coney will record it and photograph record of it and plays it in court. She generally gets damages because the jury thinks she suffered by listening to a voice like that. Music and love go hand in hand; when a guy gets married they play a wedding march and from then on he sings the blues, making up the words as he goes along.

While correcting a proof a few days ago a statement was encountered which related that a person was descending from a window by a rope when the rope "gave away." A little later the same day another writer said someone "took a part" in a demonstration. Another referred to matter as "a bad policy" someone gave his love "in a full measure"; and another had an "all around" good time. In each case the writer did violence to the English language by the surplus and erroneous "a." The expressions that were aimed at, are—or ought to be—well known phrases. In some of them the "a" changes the meaning from what was intended in others, it merely violates good form. Every language has these idiomatic expressions that is, forms that are peculiar in construction but fixed in the language. Sometimes the meaning of the expression is different from the combined meanings of the separate words, or at any rate can only be derived from them by mentally supplying other words. For example, "Monday we speak" means "the Monday a week after the next Monday." In the cases given we find a surplus "a." On the other hand, in some idiomatic phrases a really surplus "a" properly occurs; i.e., "many a day" or "many a week." There are scores and hundreds of these phrases in the language, only a few involve the "a." however. These were selected merely as examples of idiomatic expressions. The correct forms of these idioms can only be learned and fixed by reading the better class of literature, including the better manner and magazine and the writer's use mark as lacking in competence as surely as does bad spilling or bad grammar. No writer will ever improve in any way, and the writer he is lacking—if his reading is largely devoted to reading after writers of his own class. P. H. M. M.

New York Backward in Producing Men of Distinction The Jews Own New York, the Irish Run It; the Negroes Entertain It. "Black Manhattan," by James Weldon Johnson, a Perfect Picture of the American Metropolis. By KELLY MILLER About a year ago, James Wadson Johnson, executive secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, took a vow of chapelship. We all began to wonder what he was doing during a year of obscurity became expectant. The secret is out. He merely retired to his studio to paint a picture of "Black Manhattan." And a right good likeness has been made. He has used words of color, the portrait stands out in life-like likeness before our eyes. It is a picture which white pages will delight to view. They are always surfeited to satire by the tenuously reassoned treatises on this forbidden subject, and wish to be only allowed to read them within their mist. In other words, they refuse to consider Negro seriously. But tell them about the Negro jockey, banjo player, fighter, minstrel, mimic, buck dance, cabaret critics, jazz orchestra, singer of jubilee glee or Memphis blues and they will not only stop to hear but lingeringly appreciate the dramatic portrayal of good life of the humble or the grotesque criticism of the upstart. It might now be said that the Jew own New York, the Irish title it has, the Negroes amuse and entertain it. When the white Manhattan is in quest of the spectacular, the biarre the picturesque, the ridiculous and the absurd, the calls for his Negro amusers as the King of byegee for his clown. There is also a deep note. He needs also to page the jubilee singers when he would have his spiritual emotions started and stirred as nothing else can do. Prophere of Many Editions. It is needless to dwell at great length on the direct purpose and aim of the book. Mr. Johnson has so well nigh perfect piece of work that we all have long longed to see dane With Shakespearean faithfulness, he has held up the mirror to nature. To be, will probably run through an editions as it deserves to do. I suppose that a half hundred books have been written on Harlem during the past twenty years with, half hundred yet to follow before interest in the subject shall be exhausted. What a field for an ad- quate sociological treatise on area contacts' books have formed a part of Manhattan since 1623. One hundred years ago, there were 44,000 of the in the state, and 14,000 in the city. As early as the middle of the 18th century, this Negro crime induced such names as John B. Rus worm, James Macauley, John E. Highland Garnet, Alexander Crum- mell, and Kirk Macauley, which company, after American with any like number, Afro-American celebrities that might be listed today. But all of thee ha- been lost without trace. Of the fifty thousand Negro found in New York City and State 1800, few of their descendants figure in Johnson's "Black Manhattan in Johnson" all new cemens. Ordinary and exceptional Negroes drawn from the four quarters of the nation from the West Indian Isles, and exposed to the new and unusual conditions have made the name of Harkin famous throughout the nation around the world. Why happens it that similar group of Negroes in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and Chicago have no comparable impression on the public mind during the last quarter of century? What is there peculiar about the Manhattan environment that it awakens such peculiar and unique response on the part of Negroes exposed to it? New York a Laboratory of Race Prejudice. What a laboratory of race pride! These forty-four thousand York Negroes of a hundred years have not numerally held their nor have they made any significant place in the life of the community. They have one hundred years educational advantage: more educational half of that time been a mitted tree; more public and private schools established and maintained the world for the most favored people. And yet it is fair to say that if persons of dislike have been forced, nor have they gained or manned any important place in the ususal, economic, cultural or political life of the city or State. There is probably not a New York who has risen to an unstable place in the business, or financial world or has any car-cropping part in any great enterprise. Those that have reached the high levels, for the time that are new cameras in the South. Why the backwardness? we query. relative backwardness? we quarrel. Neither can we escape the situation that race prejudice, then somewhat modified in form, as as sertive here as elsewhere. Harriet's name is segregation.

REBUKE URGED Charge He Tried to Buy Negro back with Job. NEW YORK—Planning a whirlwind campaign in its determination to halt the nenomination of Senator Henry J. Allen for his support of Judge John J. Parker, the National Association for the Advancement of Color People has sent Field Secretary William Pickens into Kansas, it was announced this week. Mr. Pickens will speak at mass meetings in Coffeyville, Wichita, Topeka, Kansas City, Lawrence, Leavenworth and Atchison and other towns where the Negro population is large enough. Branches of the N.A.A.C.P. throughout Kansas will co-operate, and Roy Wilkinsman editor of the Kansas City Call, will assist Mr. Pickens the campaign against Allen. Plan Rebuke In making public the plans of the NAACP, to oppose Senator Allen, Water White, acting secretary, made the following statement: "The issue Kaine is is of most vital importance and the Negroes of that state have an opportunity to be a blow of lasting benefit not only for themselves but for the citizenship rights of colored people of the Negroes. Allen's state to vote on the Negroes' nomination of Parker who ultimately advocated disfranchisement of the Negro. To those appeals Turner turned a deaf car. He did everything in his power to put on the Supreme Court a bench man with the will to float to float in the 14th and 15th districts so far as the concerns are concerned. "Now Allen is desperately trying to foil Neroces into believing that he is still their friend. His wife is a flooding state with a puertorico leaflet in certain minor things that Allen as governor has done for Neroces. This leaflet blandly ignores Allen's work to set Parker confined. What if everything the leaflet is true is true? On the basis of appeal to that Neroces and appeal to him. Allen betrayed the colored citizens of Kansas and betrayed them shamelessly. "It will be to the killing credit of the colorado of Kansas if they repudiate the attempt to hoodwink them and back them into Allen's camp through a petty job of Allen's supporters. Rebuke this attempt after AFTER PARKER's defeat create enormous respect for the Neroces of Kansas and of the entire country. The N.A.A.C.P. is confident that these voters will stay in the high moral principle involved and use to let themselves be misled."

Wages in France One-Third of those of U.S. Laguage a Difficult Barrier. "Come to Europe but Bring Round Trip Ticket." By J. A. ROGERS (every colored person who can afford it should take a trip to Europe, but my advice is: Keep away unless you (Paris Bureau of the Afro-American) PARIS, France. I have written several articles from time to time advising those who are thinking of coming to Europe to settle, not to do so, but there is hardly a mail in which I do not receive a letter or two to that effect and from persons who say that they read my articles. As I have said before, Europe is overcrowded. It is a land from which people are migrating. The result, so far as employment is concerned is that there are demands for every job, and unlike America, the citizen is given the preference. In France, which is the most liberal, so far as the employment of foreigners is concerned, the noncitizen must have a permit from the office of Labor before he can land his job, and the employer must show that such foreigner is holding a position that a Frenchman cannot fill. As to England, if it is even suspected that you haven't enough money to keep you until you can get out of the country, you'll not be given permission to enter. In applying for a visa to come into any European country, just let it be known that you are coming in search of work, and you'd not get it. There are certain exceptions as regards musicians, but in the case of England, those wishing to give even a concert must hold a permit from the Minister of Labor before they can give permission to land. Again there is the formidable barrier of language. The one who goes to a country whose language he does not speak is to all intents and purposes, deaf and unlucky, until he learns it. And that takes time. How, if one gets work, can he do it, when he does not know what those about him savage? There is also the matter of wages, which are two to three times lower than in America, with the cost of living now propped up. The same cost the same as in America with its much higher wage. To come or even to think of coming to Europe in search of work, you must be wise in your opinion. The same holds true with regard to those who think of coming to do some small business. Europe is for the manufacturer who is the Nero business man in America. Find it difficult to hold his own with the small white business man, how will he be able to compete with the small black and green business man, who already has legal advantages on his side? A few American Negroes, here and there (other than musicians have less than they would have had in America, and mostly at menial jobs waiting on white tourists. One American Negro who came to make some money years ago, and as first made some money in the tourist business, told me that he regretted the step, for if he had remained in America and had worked as hard, he might have been worth a fortune to He gave up a good government position to come to Europe, because he was dissuaded of color.

Later, this man entered business, but finds competition so keen, increased by the fact that he is a foreigner, that he told me a fessor ago that he could be entirely of the sort, but for what he can get and returning to America.

ROGERS every colored person who can afford it should take a trip to Europe, but my advice is: Keep away unless you have a return ticket. It is not color or no color prejudice. A Negro may go anywhere he pleases, but if he has no money, then he is no more wanted than a poor white man would be. It would be a nightmare and thing, how many of those Negroes who are forever talking about "Race Race!" could find themselves broke just for once in a real white man's land like this, and then they would quickly see that it is not a matter of race. While a white man would be free and above the man who has nothing else but whiteness of skin. The same holds true of America. A penniless Nordic in Georgia is around there, handsome, and money has but to jump into his car and give orders to his chauffeur. Real freedom, these days, is economic freedom, and that is why it is foolish for a man to leave a country where it is tighter. If ever the American Negro could realize the full value of money he had, he would be using that time instead to develop himself, and thus be more fit to compete in the box market. Such programs have been has been only along this line. To come to Europe without money or in search of work is to exchange one intolerable condition for worse and more painful one. In South American countries also, except in the cases of rare individuals. Wake up, buckle down to hard work and study; make money where bad as condition money; in best way then travel and best way, is my advice.

Arrogance Charged PREACHER, UNFROCKED KEEPS HIS CHURCH Harlem Adventist, who Set up Own Denomination, is Sustained. INJUNCTION GRANTED Parent Church Must Keep its Hands Off. NEW LORK—A victory was won by Elder J. K. Humphrey, founder of the United Sabbath Day Adventist Conference, when Justice Frankenhalter sustained an injunction restraining the Greater New York Conference from cusing him from the pastorate of Harlem Church No. 1 of the Seventh Day Adventist denomination. Elder Humphrey created a sensation when, following disrecements with the Greater New York Conference a year ago, he threw away, carrying his church with him and establishing the Greater Sabbath Day Adventist Conference with churches in Jamaica, Newark, N.J., Brooklyn, Omaha, St. Louis, and Chicago. Unfrocked by Body The New York body unfrocked the pastor for this action and later sought to have him ousted as pastor of the church he held. The elder sought an injunction to prevent the body from interfering with him. This fuss, but no action was served, he notice upon him to get out he sought another injunction, which was granted last week when the ruling that he would be discharged the result would be the probable disruption of the spiritual organization for which money damages would not adequately compass in the event of a subservient BROOKLYN Y.W.C.A.

The slogan is, "We Stand United." Sensational Doings of a Super-Bandit By DONN BRYAN A MOVEMENT is now under near Cape Girardeau, Missouri, by farmers, to seek the treasure it is thought Joseph F. Johnson, colored super-bandit and gallant gentleman, buried prior to the ending of his career by Samuel Millet, hired gunman. Approximately eighteen thousand dollars lie buried somewhere near the Haunted Rock of Dutchown, secreted by the king of bandits because of it: weight and because he was traveling light. At this particular time in his life, Joe was hotly pursued by unpleasant stalkers determined to kill him on sight. About five hours before Joe buried his foot me walked steadily into a bank at Whitewater, Missouri, on one of his sole exploits, threw his gun down on the lone cashier, Avery T. Anderson, and said: "You understand my business here, of course?" The cashier nodded. "A blikd man could feet it with his cane," he retaliated. The money. Let me add, too, for your sole benefit, that I've never killed a man in my life. Anderson lit a cigar and passed the box through the hole. "Have one, he invited. Johnson smilingly declined, saying, "One hand is holding the money and the other my gun. I might have to—break my record." The cashier grinned. "It's quite possible that you will," he retorted coolly. "We got some hard riders and good shooters in Whitewater." At the door Johnson turned and looked back at Anderson. It would have been, for him, a simple enough matter to have spit his account head open with a bullet, although no such revelation penetrated his mind. "I'm in a hurry," Johnson instantiated "where's the money?" "Most of it's stacked here on the desk." Anderson replied. "Will you come around here for it or shall I穿 it through the lobe in the cage?" Johnson laughed. "I appreciate you," he countered. "Your's is an offer that I can hardly resist. Suppose you穿 it through the hole." He whistled while he waited for derson to dump the money into a tan leather satchel that he had brought along, and as he whistled, he lounged leisurely with an air clown on the fence that ran from the door to the cashier's cage. However, his blue-barreled revolver was ready for instant use. "Here you are," Anderson said, shoving the sack through the opening in the twisted wire. "Now I suppose you'll go on your way." "Of course," he corroborated. "you've been decent to me, so why should I be otherwise to you?" "Johnson." Anderson expostulated "you're a decent sort of cuss. This, unfortunately, is your method of making a living. Your brains in another direction do much good I am sorry for you. Still, I wish to sa: that, as soon as you reach your horse, I'm going to give the alarm." Johnson swung the satchel over his shoulder, holding it with his left hand. "The fastest horse in the state stands o. . . there unhitched," he declared with a soft purring note of satisfaction in his voice, "and you're welcome to meet yourself that's what you业务 billing you with death or capture. They are untruly, my worst enemies.

"It's quite possible that you will," he retorted coolly. "We've got some hard riders and good shooters in Whitewater." At the door Johnson turned and looked back at Anderson. It would have, been, for him, a simple enough matter to have split Anderson's head open with a bullet, although no such sinister threat penetrated his mind. The cashier waved his hand. Joseph F. Johnson strode casually, alight indifferently, from the entrance of the frame building. At a hitching rack, unstained, stood his faithful mount. Steel. The animal pawed the sun-baked ground. Joe sprang into the saddle and vanished round the oak in the road a hundred yards west of the bank. The moment he was out of sight o. the institution he heard the blunt clang of a hand-bell. Cashier Anderson had made good his threat. Joe put spurs to Steel, although there was, perhaps, slight necessity for this, for the horse understood nim as few men did. Steel was away like a hissing rifle ball. His飞翔 hoofs thudded against the ground around them when he posseced the bend in the road below the bank, nothing but faint speeches; dust in the distance. It was sunward that evening when Johnson pulled up at the washed-out bridge across Lecrotio creek, baffled beca 'a of the treacherous creek bottom. He decided, however, to return a few miles down the road to a farmhouse he had passed, hoping to spend the night there. It wasn't that he doubted Steel's ability to ford the stream, rather it was because of the danger of quick sand, for he had heard somewhere that Lecrotio creek at the edge of the river was in the warm ground." It was even repaired to contain the bones of an entire family that had attempted to cross it in a covered wagon. "Johnson had two hours earlier, left his pursurers miles behind and did not experience any qualms regarding his safety, in that direction. Surely THEATER NOTES P. A.

Steel was as swift as a whanging arrow. Before pulling away from the river bank, he dismounted, transferred the money, a large potion of which was in silver, his saddle bags, flung the satchel in the river, and began to hike his trail. At the farmhouse, without dismounting, he hailed a colored man who was sprawled on the low-roofed porch. "What's the chance to spend the night?" he politely interrogated. "Who are you, feller?" the farmer wanted to know. Johnson tossed him the first nails that came into his mind. "I already got a feller here," the farmer commented. "He's got my only spare room."

LONDON IS SPRINTER Hutchinson Seen as Man who Introduced Syncopation. LONDON.—Jack London, who represented Great Britain as a spinner in the 1928 Olympics, has turned pianist and with "Hutch" Hutchinson, popular pianist is sharing honors as the conductor of a dance band here. London, whose best performance was that of 9 4-5 seconds in the 100-yard dash, has been taking piano lessons for about eighteen months and today is about one of the hottest orchestra leaders in this city. He has also acquired a name as an accompanist for singers of spirituals. "Hutch" is Institution Hutchison is an institution with Londoners, being credited with giving London its first real steady diet of real rhythm and subtle syncope. As the pianist in the orchestra of C.B. Cochrane revue at the London Pavilion he has become known to thousands of followers and now "hat he has his own band he is besieged with ensembles." Cochrane will be remembered for his importation of the original "Blackbirds," starring Florence Mills and of "Porry," both of which were highly successful here. refins. "I'll pay you well to feed my horse," he coaxed. The farmer rose lazily, "That can be done, I reckon." He took Steel to the barn but not until Johnson had unsaddled him. With the saddlebags across his shoulder, he sat on the floor with faint strokes of the chary ball in the copper-hued sky. Returning the farmer eyed the saddlebags, unsplungingly. "What you got in them oags?" he inquired with an attempt at casualness. "Oh, just a few collars and things." Johnson replied. "A feller aas to watch his appearance some." "Ben's supper?" "No." Johnson admitted quickly, "and I'm powerfully hungry." The farmer scratched his chin meditatively. "Jes leave them saddle bags out here an come in," he invited. Johnson shook his head. "I'm powerfully proud of these," he told the farmer, whose name was Ted Bradford, who now eighty-nine, stiffives. "I take them always wherever I go." "Mandy." Radford called to a good-looking girl who inobtrusively appeared in the kitchen door, "we got another mouth to feed, so set an extra plate." Johnson vanished noiselessly. Johnson sat on quite still, taciturn. He had found a long time before that, when you are watched suspiciously, the least danger the less danger you yourself in. "Them's right nice saddle-bags," Radford exclaimed abruptly. "Mind me lookin' at em?" Johnson shook his head at the interrogation. Then he whistled. A second later, as he was about to pass over the bags apparently for inspection, there came a violent thud of hoops crashing against the side of the barn twenty or thirty yards away. "Heil," he vouches concerningly rile the back of his shoulder, "that's my horse," and he hurried towards the barn, with the farmer trailing disgustedly in his wake, no doubt wondering why Johnson had whistled. He had known that Steel possessed an almost human brain he would have been dumfounded. Johnson feigned disgust. "Why don't you clean your stable once in a while?" he said curtly. "This an't a fit place for a horse like mine. I'm taking him out of here, right now." same," Radford pronounced grimly. Johnson tossed a fifty cent piece on the floor and led Steel out. While he was saddling him at the house, with the saddle bags still over his shoulders tacked came up. "You're powerless pet for a stranger," he reckoned. "I reckon you could a reason be though, try'n to throw me off 'track. What you got in them saddle bags?" Radford's hand whipped to his overall pocket and a gun flashed in his hand. It rested in a direct line with Johnson's right eye. "Are you goin't accommodate me?" Radford insisted ironically. Johnson nodded. He had been in closer places than this and won by generalship. "Sure," he conceded. "I'm always accommodating." He swung the saddle bags down off of his shoulders, made as it to present them to Radford, and, as the other reached out, with his free hand, Johnson flashed his own gun, which parked instantly. The latter was an expert gunman, quicker than a lion's striking paw, and Radford's weapon thudded against the ground. His wrist ha. been ripped open by Johnson's bullet. This, as many times before, demonstrated the super-bandit's decency of character. He had never yean slain an opponent. Johnson laughed, leaped into the saddle and hastily girded on Steel, and galloped out of the yard. He knew that he had put his foot in it. The weight of the saddle-bags bothered Steel. Knowing that he would have to travel fast now, he decided to bury the money and come back after it when there was less danger. Therefore he looked about for a place. When he came to the haunted rock at Dutchtown he hastily interred the money loosely in a hole that he dug out with the long blade of his huntin' knife. He carefully covered the money with dirt and some scattered coils and rode away into a fusillade of shots from the posse that met him halfway between Dutchtown and Whitewater, he scribbled down the Start of East and Miss Snowden is making cameras click in Hollywood with her specialty dance numbers in Fox productions, while Miss Marquez, clever sourier and dancer is just as popular in eastern playhouses Miss Snowden is making cameras click in Hollywood with her specialty dance numbers in Fox productions, while Miss Marquez, clever sourier and dancer is just as popular in eastern playhouses Listening In A. 9:00—Melody Hour—Carolyn Gray, pianist. 9:00—The Ballerinas—Martley R.

Johnson once more eluded the possession completely and crossed over into Illinois, leaving Missouri behind him, for no horse could hope to keep up with Steel. The saddle-bag falling into the hands of Martin Hinshaw, senior, at an express company sale, is responsible for the present organization of treasure seeking parties. Hinshaw, junior, is leading the hunters, as his father is an invalid, and has finally given up the hope he entertained for fifteen years, bringing the treasure up to surprising everyone dudely producing the saddle-bag which he had so carefully concealed all these years. Unless an unknown person has beaten the treasure-seekers to the money that the bandit king hid there at Dutchtown, they will profit considerably. That, however, remains for the future to disclose.

In the first place, it was a long time before we received dressing rooms, and the stars never received the consideration that they deserved. Many days we were called out to work and had no place to go to await the call. All projection rooms and sets were filled, and we stood around users like lost sheep. Extra Work for No Pay The Dixie Jubilee Singers were required to sing the opening chorus, "The Hollywood Rave," working all night and doing a full job of the singing. Promised pay for it by the casing office and later refused by the executives. This was no connection with our "Halloween" contract — just another stranger taken. They are not given credit on the screen for "his contribution" being attributed to the "Hollywood Ensemble." Belle Connors was called upon to be a bit in a short, received no pay for it. One of the singers was called to the lot one day to play the song so Nina Mae might rehearse. But they had been paying outside players to rehearse the heading and paying them well. But the attack them that money could be used by demanding the extra service in the group. The boy refused to sit without pay, and was promptly led by "Red" Master, assistant director. I put the master before Mr. Walter and he, seeing the importance of him. of every voice, please. When I asked Golden about the matter, he refused to consider raising it altogether more than the episode called for and finally blurted out, "Well, you what that guy had the idea to say? He said he would. 'do it and no WHAT will talk to ME that way.' Of course he wanted to add, 'Must less a 'nigger,' and his husband did it. Stars are Ignored Well, Golden hailed from Georgia and all through his connection with the group demonstrated an utter lack of respect for Negroes, a coarseness and familiarity that were disgusting in the extreme. He extended to see the lead-in characters, after a gruffy day's work, having to pull on the bus and street car, no conversances for them, and the studio not used. There were days when Havrs and Kerns were to collase, yet he got the home way they could spend money for a taxi out of their master salary. It was a shame. Of course, we ordained him and assistants to work and heavy demands were made on our nerve supply, but we resented each neglect of the others. Had they been arriving salaries that permitted an expenditure of $10,000, but when whether that directors are given the allowance, it makes your tool with indignation. Vidor is Unkind Since there was a tacit understanding between Vidor and cast that there was to be whole-hearted co-operation in the making of "Halleluja," animation far beyond that called for any other cast member or other projections detected response from in the same measure that we our sincere co-operation. There was no kindly word or card dringing to the cast at Christmas time. There was no cast at Christmas time. The cast was discharged. They were dropped like one a sponge after squeezing it dry. The cast was sent home on our tourist and with the minimum allowance for meals. I think one or two of the stars refused to accept the first class. Left off Singers Although in all publicity the maller of the picture was stressed, and although it played an outstanding part in the picture, the singers were not mentioned in the picture it was was. The production was therefore. Therefore I was receiving no credit whatever for my part in composing much of the music, amazing the spirituals, as director of the now famous Dixie Jubilee Singers my service in directing all symphonies, which I did for the music, etc., for which ability I had been engaged by contract. I saw Vidor evaded the issue, and Truckch informed me that since not stated in the contract that I did not hone to succeed in mind recognition. I knew that the principle of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer is to do the fair thing if it be pre- and I carried the matter to McCarthy one of the executives. Recognition was given the Dixie Jubilee Singers on the screen immediately. Also, I might add that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer square enough, upon my solicitation, to have a salary early after their arrival on the lot. This deviation from their contracts was made in appreciation for their unstinted service and co-operation, and that the salaries they were receiving were inadequate for their upkeep. The first matter there was no other company to pay for the recognition of services, perhaps it should not be mentioned as generosity, but in the latter case a marked departure from an iron-clad company deeply adapted the consideration. Caution to Others I wish to state that no hurt is intended to any individual by this arrangement, sincerely hoped that it will do some good to stave off harm and serve as a warning to all Negroes who have the opportunity to go into some pictures. There is one thing I wish to stress, something that the "Huhahuh!" east will readily understand. Always, fellow actor, keep your digs in your dealings with your white males or superiors. Don't get faecal, old saying that "family breeds breeds breeds." He will laugh and joke you until you are off your guard. The gets a change of heart and the gets a change of play, what are going to happen in such way the wind blows and a word or phrase should put me on the alert. Give your knowledge and ability and give your explanation. Would have, see that it is put on your Give nothing away. If you know to sing, sing and don't be entertained, to entertain the demand. First you dance and the demand you to dance and the want to do it unless you are paid. They will resent the inconsistency and you will hit the walk. That is what happened to our bass singer. He had been play-wing the piano every day on the set, entertaining. But when they had use for his ability and the skill, they were right. In a way, the HAD been playing for nothing, so they couldn't see the sudden importance. And they were right. too. If things go wrong, or you think they are wrong, don't worry. You complaint and mumble the Go. They are the proper parties and state your wrivance, which is a man's way of doing things. Whatever the trouble or indignities heaped upon you, there is never any excuse or justifiation for a poor performance. Remember that Don't Suggest too Much The biggest thing in the world is your work. It is bigger than your feelings, the director, and the whole snookin' motion. You need a good woods. The birth of an idea is sometimes exceedingly painful and there is no telling when he is trying to figure something out. You will find it hard to refrain from giving suggestions when they are not asked. You will be surprised when he is before offering any idea you may have. If he is vain, superficial, newly-arrived, or a trifle unsteady on his directorial force, he will resent it. Or if he does accept it, he will do so with a smile. If he is ashamed to acknowledge your contribution, You will be surprised at finding such littleness among men who should be above any kind of fear or suspicion, but when you should be surprised, you discover a big man among them. I have heard it said by experienced executives and officials that directors are as a rule a painful lot—know too much about the business and things under the sun. In the director ranks broad men are rare as in other professions. What they should rehearse is the way they fear to bend over and pretends to be taller than he is. The man who towers above the common he, stoops with a smile of assurance, for he knows what he is going to but has to lift his head to eaze down upon the pigmies about his feet. Suffered and Profited We both suffered and profited in the making of "Halleulah." There was not much halleulah in it for me, but it was great deal they could have learned no other way. It is to be hoped that motion picture companies will consider carefully the man who is appointed to the role, and mean he should be fair, human, and have respect for the sensitive race with which he has to deal.

Rosamond Johnson merged with the vaudeville act of Charles Hart, both, at that time, in the Studio A, among the comedians; "A Congo Love Song" and "Lady Moon." Johnson's compositions, being hummed in all the hot spots. The Howard Theatre at Seventh Street, in New York, in 1912, then the show place of the Dixie Amusement Company, featuring J. Leubie Hill in the old three-act musical comedy "My Friend from New York," in 1912, then took the Lafayette audiences by storm with "My Friend from Kentucky." Ben Nibur managed the old Seventh Avenue playhouse in those times—before Frank Schiffman's time. (They had written programs then.) The night after a shindig in Milwaukee. Spring of 1919, when Mazie Baily ended the antics of George Measured seven feet eleven and tipped the Fairbanks at 375. The gal was jealous because George, then with the famous "Chu Chin Chow" Company, gave too freely of his company while playing the Wisconsin in S. H. Dudley, now one of the biggest theatrical chain owners, in his hilariously funny "Darktown Prolicks" at the old Grand Theatre, Chicago, April 1919; particularly his wife, and his life, a comedy act that had been going strong since the early part of 1910. Butterbeans and Susie, when Susie had the semblance of a waistline and first adapted tight breeches, sending the crowds into convulsions and both of them had the "oh, so tired" look on their well-known pans. The sensation that Flo Ziegfeld on the Big Street caused by his importation of Princess Nyota Nyoka the East Indian dancer, who back in 20 and 21, was a bigger sensation in the day. She crammed the backstage entrances of the New Amsterdam on rehearsals nights, September, 1922, and had admirers waiting in line for a glimpse of her curves at Fifth Avenue and Eighth Street. Funny part of it is that the gal, the Ziegfeld press department, spoke only French and several of her native languages at the home of Dhoni Borate in Poona, and only two years later, the gal chirped English like a Continental. Can it be that the press agents had learned, even that far back, that "no spik Anglals" stars are bigger than "no spik Guns" stars grown products? In other words, another Gina (Sons O'Guns) Malo, nee Jeanette Flynn. Funny, hey? Sometimes in '23, can't remember at the moment, when Evelyn Preer beamed up the bed with played the part of 'Salome,' along with Laura Rowan of Sidney Kirkpatrick out Chicago way.

The land of the land and land seriously, particularly Hannen Swaffer—the "T" critic. They're debating the none-to-encouraging reviews of "Abram's bosom." Paul Green's piece that he wrote during the early part of January, 27. With the possible exception of Jules Blesdsoe, all the principals are still searching for a real financial break. Tom Bosson, Dick Huey, Tom Kissel, Jimmy Rufus, Ben Smith, McClendon, Mel Green and others. The first real break that Daniel Haynes can remember—his chance at the lead role in "The Bottom of the Sea," Rang Tang, followed by "Earth." "Halleujah." Now Dan is doing his stuff nightly at the Mansfield Theatre in "The Green Pastures." Some reasea, what? The sensation that Belasco's "Lulu Belle" along the Bright Alley.

LLEWELLYN WILSON Baltimore to Have Piano School. Young Singer Pleases. Lillian Reed Back Home. BALTIMORE this summer is busily engaged in formulating several types of social and civic programs, which if they are successfully consummated, will open many avenues for the employment of properly prepared teachers. The Negro group in Baltimore is not as democratic as are some traditional types of African villages, but any city-wide program must be purely democratic in spirit and in nature. An African program, civic, social or educational, musical or athletic must be entirely co-operative in its nature. Baltimore for a long time has needed a music school for Negroes. Sporadic attempts have been made by the city without one, but without much permanent success. It is possible the attempt to establish all departments at once has had something to do with past failures. Some have failed because they are by promising something for nothing. This fall will mark the beginning of another attempt. This time an effort will be made to establish a first class piano school; there will be a large number of students in scholarships, there will be no attempt to attract large numbers of pupils with the bait of very cheap lessons. This attempt will be made to provide first class piano instruction which will be supplemented by the proper theoretical branches necessary to sound musicianship. The project is a much needed one and probably will supporters here in Baltimore. --- Morris Davis, one of our youthful singers, sang very acceptably a group of modern selections at a rehearsal in the summer session.

Those people who have seen "The Green Pastures" will probably recall that Wesley Hill, who plays the part of the Angel Gabriel, never blows his shiny horn. And Mr. Hill, who has "lived" many roles in his theatrical experiences, probably wonders what would happen if he really did blow it. The man, who so successfully plays the part of "Gabe." is the subject of the following story in the New York Times. Since actors gifted with enthusiasm are alleged to "live" their roles, having no greater joy in life than to hurry apace to their theatres. It is the pleasure of the dusk.

On Stage 40 Years In every other role he ever took (and in one way or another there is a role Mr. Hill has taken) he has earned his salary by impersonating some real person in some such sturdy drama as "In Owen the Wizard" or "On the Trail Before the War" (that would be the Civil War). But his Gabriel business is quite another man with recognizable character, and Mr. Hill likes his work a lot. "Gangway! Gangway for de Lawls! with no mean attitude and relishing the notion that no one has quite been Gabriel on a stage before. And, beware, he will tell you in a reticent way that his role is the finest ever written for any actor, which leaves Marc Connelly to take a bow, wherever he may happen at the moment to be.

Lawd Cautions Him Concerning the horn, it is important to add that, although its Gabriel has never actually blown it, the assiduously shaded horn is a good addition. In the first set, he puts it to his lips, and De Lawd gently cautions him. "Watch yourself, Gabe." He says. And Gabs he must blow it, but only wanted to get the feel of it. He confided that he sort of wonders what would really happen if he did blow it; if, perhaps, he might bring down a judgment horn.

CHAPTER EIGHT THE JET-BLACK GOD Prof. Waldealman Komffort's studio of voice was the gathering place of all those who desired to have the advantages of his superlative instruction. Singers who had already made their mark on the concert stage and whose names appeared in large type in the metropolitan newspapers, came there for additional performances. Prof. Komffort was world famous, and in the course of the afternoon one might meet there any number of great celebrities of the musical world. It was exceedingly fortunate that Verna had been able to have Count Fernandin and Daalebonne to have her enrolled as a pupil and pay for her tuition. Otherwise she would not have been able to get the training afforded because of the tremendous expense involved. Two afternoons a week she would for a single half hour for twenty dollars. which Prof. Kouffort was unusually attive to her. A short, bewkiserhead him, who made numerous gestures, talked interminably, rolled his eyes and flew into a rage at the highest mistake. he immediately recumbent to Verna's charm and more polite to her than to many of the great concert singers who ask his instruction. She had been attending the studio only three weeks when the fussy little man made the togiver advance. Would she go to groom with him? Would she permit him to take her to the opera? Would she accept a box ofandy? Each day there was a request put in, earnestly than before. Verna Learns the Game "What shall I do?" she finally asked Marrot. "I don't want to offend him, Margot, but I really don't want to be going about with him. In the first place, he's too old and. in the next place, he's not colored and that would make it extremely embarrassing." said Margot, comfortingly. "Sill I don't think there would be any harm in going to dinner with him at one of the restaurants here in the village or to the opera. After all, Verna, you must remember that Waldemar Komfort, uply and funny as he is, is a great power in the music. I need nide to him you may attain success quicker than you would experience." "We have to use our heads in this world, Verna, and sometimes we must do things that are distasteful. Get me right, now. I do not mean that you should be indiscreet; I merely mean that you should be courteous and tactful. Most women never get anywhere in life, Verna, because they do not use tact. You can keep men at their distance, my dear, without insulting them or making them feel cheap." "Oh. I thank you so much, Margot. You have been such a help to me," said Verna, placing her hand on the white girl's shoulder. "I don't know what I should have done without you all alone in this great city, knowing no one." "It was a delight and a pleasure to have you come and to help you, fema dear. Margot replied. "You have proved myself every inch a credit to my judgment of character. Now, tell me, how are you getting on with Count de Raalbone?" "He's worrying me more than Prof. Komfort. You see he has more time at his disposal than Prof. Komfort and, consequently, it is harder to escape him. He is always asking me to go riding in the country with him, to come to his apartment, to go abroad, and a thousand and one other things. I always have to please me but I can see he is getting tired of it. I don't know how I can keep avoiding the man. After all, you know, he is paying my tuition and so I am in his debt." Margot Yancey was thoughtful for four seconds. She had come to Verma Nash, as had everybody from the artistic set of Greenwich Village. She didn't want to see the colored girl get into any difficulties from which it would be difficult to extricate her. And yet she realized that it would not be very easy to Prof. Komfort and the man de Raubenau who could be two persistent friends, be beautiful prenon. To them, Verna was an exotic creature, a rare flower to be plucked and then cast aside when withered. The Party "You must meet Wendell Dalton, Verna," he blurted out suddenly. "He appreciate knowing you and I know you'll share the feeling. He is one of the finest and most accomplished young men I know, white or black, and certainly a credit to his race." "Do you mean the chap who wrote 'The Ethiopian Love Song?' asked Verna, little excitedly. "Yes, I'll call him up and see when he can come down. We'll throw 'a party as an excuse.'玛格 reached for the telephone and called a number uptown. Three evenings later, the party was held Among those present, were Watkins, Jantz Roofocki, Prof. Knauffort,unt de Raalbonne, Augustine de Silve, the great contralto, Myrle von Bissen, the novelist, Clare Pancher, the beautiful blue-eyed litterress, and a number of others unusual prominence. A three-piece orchestra from Harlem played hot and Margot's maid was kept making cocktails from pre-war Esch. Practically everyone had arrived and the party was beginning to get gay when the doorbell rang and Wendell Dalton was admitted and announced. Verna looked eagerly to see what he looked like, but at that time the orchestra bore down heavily upon a "stomp" and several of the men surrounded her. Count de Raulbonne, tal, immaculately tailored, sardonic and courteous, reached her first. THE AFRO-AMERICAN P. M. Verma was all excited as his long black fingerprints scampered over the keyboard. He was smiling and laughing. He was wearing a great pink bodysuit adding over a crest-shaped shape carpeted with white sand.

"Get ees my dance, ees eat not?" he inquired with politely arched eyebranch; down upon her. "You promise heme to me, remember?" With sweet reluctance Verna, resplendent in a long, clinging, green evening dress with shipers and bracelet, earrings and necklace to match, rose indiscriminately and permitted him to hear her to the dance floor. As s. shw she tried to get a glimpse of arrival, and falling, s-glanced appearing at Margot who, amused, stood nearby. It was ten minutes later before she Verna was all excited as his long black and brought from it weird exotic chore great palms nodding over a crescent-s could shake off the ardent French nobleman without insulting him. Then Margot took to the corner in the room where the great Negro composer-plaintiff sat surrounded by a bevy of charming ladies, and introduced the two. Wendell Dalton was tall, slender, jet black, with pearly white teeth; with long slender feet and hands, and a certain graceful, courteous, indolent insolence about him that was intriguing. He was superior in any way attempted to be. He was in any attempt to be. He was unconsolently dominate any assemblage. His perfect command of English and his equally perfect enunciation were arresting. Verna Is Captivated "It is a pleasure to know you, Miss Nash," he said courteously, rising and bowing in a courtly Old World manner. "Will you not join us?" Verna mumbled, with a little awe, that she would. She joined the circle of admiring women on whose outer circles stood a rather envious group of men. Dalton was the center of attraction. As he went on talking, describing his latest triumph in London, discussing the work of Antonelo France, communicating on Einstein's protective tariff with his views on the protective tariff with one breath, and on the race problem with another, the assemblage forgot the music and listened raptly; but none more raptly than Verna Van. What a man! he murmured to herself. Compared with him, all the others she had known paled into insignificance. Komfort was a mere AFRO F By AUNT professor albeit a famous one; Count de Raalbonne was a mere wealthy, decadent French nobleman; Dick Covin, Donald Baxter, Hugh Godfrey, and Dr. Charlie Meyers, all were so much inferior to this tall, black man that the comparison was painful. "Oh, I say, people." drawn Marcot, waving one of her long, slender muscular cigarettes in an ivory layer, told him to like to hear Verna singing The Ethiopian Love Song 'Wendell, you'll play for her, won't you? After all, you wrote it, you know." k fingers scampered over the keyboard ords and strains that brought visions of shaped beach carpeted with white sand. Dalton arched his eyebrows in pleasurable surprise. "I didn't know Miss Nash sang," he said quietly and with a fresh interest that Verna was not slow to notice. "Why, of course, she does," Margot exclaimed. "She sang your song at the Beaux Arts Ball and created quite a sensation, my boy. You are over in Europe s- much, playing before the crowned heads, that you don't know what is going on amongst us plebians in New York." "I plead guilty," he said, flashing his white teeth in a boyish grin and walking to the baby grand piano. Verna was all excited as his long, black fingers scampered over the keyboard and brought from it weird, exotic chords and strains that brought vision of great palms nodding over a crescent-shaped beach carpeted with white sand. "I saw the struck son of her his 'Ethiopian Love Song' and she lost all of her sensitivity, her temporary stage fright, her nervousness, and from her throat poured such tones as fairly electrified the little assemblage. A Triumph They sat silent, transfixed until the last note bad died and, then as a body, they rose and surrounded her, shouting their congratulations. "Eet ees a mos' remarkable performance; a mos' remarkable transformation," cried Count de Raalbonne glowing down upon her. "Wonderful! You prove that you nave profited from Professair Komfort's instruction." The others echoed his words, especially Prof. Komfort, who glowed ASHIONS T DILSEY The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, August, 2, 1930 and blustered with praise, taking advantage of the situation to press her arm, very gently and look appealingly into her eyes. However, it was the praise of Wendell Dalton, for which she found herself waiting. She realized it and her cheeks burned. She fought her down this sudden and strange emotion but, despite her will-power, she cight herself looking in his direction, awaiting his commendation. She found herself wanting. More than anything else with her, she was thirsty. Why was she so interested in a man whom she had not seen before this evening? Finally, the composer, with difficulty, extricated himself from the group of women who had surrounded him, congratulating him on the beauty of the song, and came over to where Verna was the center of a wonderful bevy of men. "I think it is quite fitting," he said, edging his way to her side, "that Miss Nash and I should have the next dance together, since we seem to have sung and played to the satisfaction of all of you. What do you say, Miss Nash?" She nodded her assent and they swept off gracefully in each other's arms. "She was a dreamy waiter, "The beautiful Burt Danube," and for the occasion, the lights were lowered, which made the atmosphere early romantic. He was as light as a feath-" on his feet, and danced like a professional. She admitted to herself, with a feeling of shame and guilt, that she would like to waltz in this wonderful man's arms forever and ever. "I think your rendition of my song was wonderful, Miss Nash," he said finally, when she had almost despaired of hearing a word of praise from his lips. "You have the most beautiful man," You've certainly been well trained, and I must say that it would be a great pleasure to accompany you, if I might, at your first recital." The Lunch Engagement "But I hadn't thought of any recet yet," she gasped, panicay, at he thought. "You'd ought to," he said shortly, as the piece ended. "You show wonderful promise, in my humble opinion. Suppose you come to my studio next week and we'll run over some songs, think are well adapted for your voice. "I'd love to," she almost whispered, "but I have two more lessons with Prot. Komfort before I can take up anything like that." "Well, all right then," he replied, "but that does prevent you from accepting my invitation to lunch tomorrow." "But you haven't invited me yet," said coquettishly. "That was my invitation," he reemerged casually, a sparkle of mischief flitting across his grave, dark countenance.

"Just *lctur*: to yourself a little breathlessly, and without another launch, a half mile from the long string of lights that marked Chicago's water front, prodding its way through a drenching rain-storm over the waters of Lake Michigan, tossing about like a cork in a tub of churning black ink, and you will readily swiftly down steep steps and into the ```markdown ``` A man lies dead in the bed.

Oh, yes, my friends, we felt much better and safe; once we were aboard the Bettle B1" ..... Neither Miles nor I ventured any comment at the time, so the former detective leaned comfortably back and began to unfold this vivid tale. As soon as Wade was alive over the rail, Holcomb turned to the luge seaman who had hung the rope "what's wrong" he flung at him "Watchman ashore reported shooting out here." "Quick! follow me!" he gasped rhapsodical day dreams by the sounding of a musical automobile horn outside the house. She raced downstairs while Margot smelled knowingly, opened the door and saw Wendell Dalton, lounging indolently in a blue sports roadster that seemed to be nearly a half block long. "Am I on time?" he asked, apparently concerned about it. "Did you hear that heart heating rapidly, 'I'm the one that's not ready but I will be soon. Wait until I get my coat.' Three minutes later they were speeding toward Harlem. Wendell explained that they were going to have lunch at Tabb's Grill at 140th Street and Lenox Avenue. The thought thrilled Verna. She had never yet been in Harlem, and had not met any colored people at all. She was walking through New York City. As they waved out of Central Park and sped up Seventh Avenue, it made her feel at home once more to see so many well-dressed Nerroes strolling. Did Wendell Really Like Her? "Before we eat." Wendell announced, "Yd better show you nothing of the section since you've never been up here before." So they went up one street and down the other; up to 155th Street and back down to 110th; Lenox Avenue, St. Nicholas Avenue, Fifth Avenue, 135th Street and the curbstone market on Eighth Avenue; the palatial apartments on "Sugar Hill" and the mansions of the elite on West 139th Street. It was all new and amazing to Verna, who had never seen Negroes living in anything but the most medico surroundings. What Wendell called the slums of Harlem, seemed to her to be the last word in sanitation compared to Billy Goat Lane in her home-town of Norrisburg. The sight-seeing trip gave her a new appreciation of the pride of race that heretofore had only falty been hers. Then they drew up at Tabb's Grill. Down the' went into the dim depths and were seated amid palms in a coz' corner away from every one. Verna was on the vera of saying "How romantic!" but she caught herself. Certainly there was nothing in Wendel Dalton's department that was a static exclamation. He had merely been a kindly, courteous, attentive host. Verna wondered at this, too. With every other man she had known she could have expected some sort of proposal or suggestion by either word or look; but this tall, lean, black composition seemed rather tall, although she had made up most palmastingly that morning and was wearing one of her smartest tailored dresses. Unlike other men who stole side glances at her, Wendel treated her almost like a man friend. It aroused her interest and her curiosity; to him she seemed not irresistible and she wondered why.

The piercing words came to me through the opened door of the little church. My brisk footsteps halted as though I had been paralyzed. I was awe-struck by the powerful, compelling force in the minister's voice. He stood in his long black robe, thundering condemnation against the thrill-crazed crowd of young school boys and girls of the city. Instantly, my mind leaped back five years—back to the city in Ohio, where I had been a pleasure-mad high school girl. The bitter tragedy from which I barely escaped flashed into my mind. My one night of supreme madness was yet as clear and breath-taking as any fast moving-picture's climax. "Our sons and daughters are dance-mad, gin-mad, and immorall!" I was no longer able to listen to his condemning words. At last I summoned up the power to paint the wonderful heroes on street to my apartment. I have taken up my pen, fully determined to give the world my story, with the hope that it will help some into my life suddenly, and swiftly overwhelmed me with his consuming power, to paint the wonderful heroes in story books.

When I was three years old, my parents migrated from Florida to Ohio, where my father established a successful real estate business. He and Mother had old-fashioned clothes.

We observed how a fast set of our white class-mates went out to have a good time. We imitated them, thinking we were becoming ultra-smart. It was wrong, we found ourselves in all sorts of diff'erent situations. And I came to realize that I had gone far down the road to ruin an despair. "What is it to you, if I do?" snapped back.

Ever one called me "Dave's" girl. But finally, like the rest of the girls, I became bored with school boys. We began to spend most of our time with a number of young fellows who were working, and had money to spend for a good time. Some of them had cars. It was much more fun for us now, stealing away on long moonlight rides. Billie Burton, a slim little brown skin girl, was my best pal. She was not as beautiful as I was; but was almost as popular as I was. She was willing to take liberties of which I was afraid. WANTED TO KNOW LIFE "I have to do it. Peggie," she would tell me, "because I'm not as nice looking as you. The fellows like me because they know I'm a 'last stepper, kid'." Th downward road is easy. I understand that the depths of midnight might come over my life. Yet I was unairied in the deep joys of the beautiful, approaching twilight. I wanted to know life, and I thought that I had chosen the best way. Fate began to weave the silver threads into her net the night that which Billie gave her birthday party. Out of this warm night of late May Jerry Lewson came into my life. When my eyes first fell upon him, I experienced a delicious sensation rushing through my body. I said, with relief, and madly happy because my dreams and longings had been realized. The man of my heart had come the剧院 in town. In her daring manner, Billie had somehow met him; he accepted her invitation to the party. He soon began to ignore the rest of the girls for me. We danced together again and again. Oh, how he collared me. He had brown skin and glossy blu. hair. A dashing, dapper figure he was in his neat fitting brown suit. We were the center of attraction. I knew that my beauty was brilliantly set off by the exquisite, rose pink frock, and my slick bobbed hair. Soon I was drunk with an unknown happiness, except the joy of nesting closely in the arms of my bronze hero. A BIG OPPORTUNITY WITH A SHOW "Beggle, you're the little golden flower. I'm searching for," he whispered, holding me under the ones he was treating a treat for the eyes of Broadway. Trust me—ar: this time next month you'll be dancing in the bright lights. Not kidding. I mean it, baby. I painted the glorious future which awailed. I had beauty; I had a good voice, and I had the gracefulness of a born dancer. And he could see no reason to be good on the stage. It was only necessary for him to say a word to Mr. Thomas the manager of the show. They needed three new girls for the New York openin': this was my great chance to win success and be in the bright lights of New York. JERRY SEEMED THE GREATEST My head was swimming in a haze of glory, when he asked me to go for a ride in his new roadster. He had jus' bought it that morning. I felt honors, in being the first girl to own a car, other girls in the city, pretty girls worrying themselves sick in an effort to win an admiring glance from him. Under a beautiful moon, we rode through the fragrant air of the country hills. In a lonely road we heared the laughter of a girl to "he knowledge of a man's kiss—the kiss of a man who knew what love wi'r. I tried to forget that Dave still loved me; he was only a dull school boy. Jerry meant so much humor." "I love you. Peg," he murmured, "I'm going to be good to my little butter-cup." Frightened at his ardent love-making, I drew away from him. FORCIP IN MY LIFE "L'ts go back. They'll miss us." I said nervously. "I'm sweet little girl." he replied, and turned the car back to wary: the city. I saw him every day after that first night. In the afternoons after school, he took me out on fences with the desire to be possessed with the desire to join the show. My school work meant little to me now. I wanted to see New York—and to be with Jerry. "Peg, you nothing to be afraid of," he told me. "Last afternoon I'm going to look out for you like a big brother. You never be sorry for taking this great chance." He had taken me to see Mr. Thomas appearance, and voice made a good impression. I was the type of girl he needed But I would have to do considerable hard practice on my singing and dancing with the promise that I would join the New York the following week. The show had a one-week's engagement in Pittsburgh. I went home to tell my parents of WEEK-END ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION TRUE STORY my good fortune. At my first word, her anger swept down upon me like a terrific hurricane. "You evil daughter of satan!" my father bellowed. "You've gone mad over the theatre. Do you see it on the stage. I'll tell you—you're not going to the devil and bring disgrace upon me and your mother." I DARINGLY PLAN TO REBEL AGAINST MY PARENTS Mother was as furious as he was, I know that I could never be able to make them realize that the theatre was the place I wanted to go. I slammed my books down upon the table, and rushed to my room. The taste of bitterness came in a gushing stream. I felt that my great opportunity to win success and fame was lost. Uk, however, was with me. Billy dropped in to get me to write her English theme. I had learned to depend on Billie; she was game for anything. Good gracious, honey! she exclaimed. "I had told her everything. 'Haven't lost all your nerve, have you? Use your pretty little bean. Jerry—Jerry'll help you." A a short time she had persuaded me to take the daring step. She dictated the note which I wrote to Jerry, telling him of my difficulties. She asked him to come with it. At hour later, she called me on the telephone and told me that everything had been arranged as we had planned. Jerry would be waiting for me down the stairs, at what he planned. I was going to escape with him! That afternoon I had drawn from the tank my savings fund of one hundred dollars. When twelve o'clock came, my sulk came. I was going to escape to fall asleep. Everything was s still as dealt when I crept down the stairs, and slipped out of the house. Jerry was waiting for me, and Billie was with him. Dear Billie, that I was all right! I fell into her arms, of us trusting into tears. I had to kiss her curriedly. I had but little time to lose. As the roadster dashed for me, I was in the middle of it, it was she had slipped into them. A ten dollar bill! I felt that I had left behind the best friend in the world. UNDER THE SPELL OF INFATUATION 1 LEAVE WITH JERRY "our" loveler than ever tonight, baby," Jerry said as we turned into ours. "And tonight's all ours," he added. Perhaps if I had fully understood what those words meant, I could have escaped his evil intentions and saved the city limit. But as it was, I was concerned about noticing only his handsome face and most fascinating now, because we now see the purple haze of my rosy future. ... I did not awake from my dreams until I noticed that we had taken the opposite direction from Pittsburgh. It was then that the terrible fear tools possession of me, to get excited, baby, Jerry replied, laughed, when I tried out that we were on the wrong road. "We may go to Chicago, honey. I skipped the show. What does it mean? We get you and you’re mine tonight." I saw Jerry — the kind-hearted, gentle Jerrry — as he really was. And I hated him — hated him with a mad frenzy of bitterness. He had shewled won my heart wholly and comely. I was so angry that I would do anything, nothing was too desperate, before I would surrender to his last dastardly adventure. "Jerry. I can’t go to Chicago with you. I screamed. "Take me back home to my mother — please — please." M’ words only had the effect of exciting his anger. The beast that lurked in his evil soul came to life. "What do you think I am? I need you to be right with me. And if I know little Jerry — he gets what he wants." "I HEARD JERRY'S TERRIFYING CRY OF AGONY" The low-slung roadster was now leaping through the air at a blinding rate of speed. It would be utter madness; have attempted to reach saturation, but the wind made my mind to fling myself into the darkness of the night. Anything to escape the evil grasp of the man at my side. I broke away from the arm he had around me, and was about to leap when Fate intervened! Jerry miscalculated a sharp bend in the roadster's roadster leape from the highway into the rocky embankment. A terrific smash of "going splinters and glass!" We were buried under the wreck. I heard Jerry's terrifying cry of agony as the pains racking my body. So soon everything became black, and I sank into a deathly unconsciousness. "Oh, my poor child! You've come back to life. You're going to live!" I had opened my eyes to look into the careworn, hysterical face of my mother. Weeks later, she told me how I had lingered at death's door like a miracle that I lived, with my whole body covered with terrible gaches and brushes. The doctors thought I was already dead when the car of tourists brought me back to the house. What a price we must sometimes pay for our knowledge! But I was glad to know that Mother could sincerely forgive me; and Dave still cared for me, sending me many of the children from his mother's flower-garden. Yet there is still one sore in my heart which can never completely heal. It is the memory of Jerry's death on the night. I can't help from feeling cradledly sad about it. I am sorry that he was not what he might have been. It almost breaks my heart to thin that a man with such noble eyes could walk down the broad plane of life. But the passing of years have brought happiness to me. "Peggle, how can I wait until June 14th?" Dave told me its been yesterday. We are going to be married in June. Billie, who is a musical comedy star now, is going to be my male of honor. Today, five years since my accident, David is returning to university. I have his promise that my musical studies shall continue after our marriage. With great expectations, I look forward to my career and the happiness of most wonderful man in the world. Tonight, I see before me a future of service and happiness — a worth life which was almost destroyed in wild dreams of a silly high school girl. 12 1 ATTRACTIVE If you want to be popular—keep your complexion soft and light.

DEAR PANSY: Gee wizard, this stifling weather it surely has been playing havoc this week. Hardy a break since last year. The poor weather man is doing all he can in his predictions to please everybody and yet the weather seemingly is going its own course in spite of anyone's wishes or feelings in the The parks are over-crowded all day and night with men, women and children, all seeking for a cool breath of air. Soft drink counters and snow-ball stands are doing more business ever known before. Soft drink counters and plugs on street corks have been let loose to relieve the poor little youngsters during this intense hot wave. The difference between 103 and 105 degrees is reaching everywhere, and the rush away from the city is evidently meaning nothing for everybody everywhere is feeling this unhappy. Swimming parties have been the most noticeable and enjoyable functions of the week. Wedding announcements are pouring in every day. The most surprising one is interesting one of last week was—but listen: Roberta'; Marriage. Can't you imagine the surprise, Pansy, among hosts of friends of Roberta Holmes when Nelle Blue but anan called her friends to join her friends at a social gathering on Friday evening and was told away with her husband. Of course Roberta was looking for a new this holiday union between Roberta and Elmer at sometime in the future, hoping the pleasure of witnessing the ceremony whenever came off. But, Elmer, too, could differently and so, the account now as it was given to me. S six o'clock sharp, Standard Time, on last Thursday evening, in Roberta F. Hewlett, Elena Roberta F. Hewlett, Elena living room at the home in the pretty living room at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Holmes, 2303 Madison Avenue, in front of a bower of palms and ferns. The Roberta F. Hewlett, Elena bower is assisted by creating Elder, D. G. Hill. Naomi M. Holmes, sister of the bride, was the maid of honor and John N. Cotton, principal of Junior High School No. 108, was the oest man. Her dad, of course, gave her away, and Charles A. Stanley played the wedding march. They tell me, Pansy, that Roberta was simply a pale blue cake with slippers to match and a carried bouquet of tea roses. Her maid of honor was most attractive in pale blue chiffon, white kid slippers and carried an arm bouquet of roses. Not a soul was present at the marriage but the immediate families. Following the ceremony a beautifully seated dinner was served at 7:53 p.m. at the Children's left entrance in Philadelphia, Atlantic City, New York, and Boston. On their return they will reside at 1154 N. Carey Street. The bride and her demonstration teacher at 7:53 p.m. at Philadelphia and the groom is principal of School No. 129. They are both popular among the society set and have hosts and hosts of friends. At Albany, and attracted quite a bit of attention in Mildred's new sport car model.

Rumor has it that Mrs. Jefferson, Mildred's mother, is sending out next week, announcements of marriage to Alhamedine, some of whom Mr. Ray bought a beautiful home at 1720 Edmondson Avenue, which he and his bride will occupy in the near future. Combining charm and popularity, Mrs. Vila Hughes Hinson, prominent in select circles in New York, is house guest of her brother and her in-law, Helen Hinson.

Pleasing to see William Hill in town again. Saw him pull up at Eta Burwell's door on Monday. Wonder if it'something? Looks like a drop in business among the Spiritualists in future, though the lack of training in the poor as well as the rich for years and years, making them believe they could communicate with the deeper ones, their troubles and so on. According to the sermon by the Rev. A. C. Clark on Sunday night against Spiritualism, and the laying bare of the secrets of the church, people thereafter will be more convinced, we hope, and put their faith in the one and only power, Jesus Christ, and their coins to a more worthy cause. In a letter to her Uncle Carl Murphy, Connie Murphy writes from London: "Just a note to say we saw (meaning she and Hilda Anderson Paula) in the church. The audience was thrilled, and after the curtains—there were many—called 'Othello,' 'Othello,' my card in and he received us later in his dressing room.

INSTITUTE. W.Va. — Delegates numbering 116. representing branches in 21 states, gathered at West Virginia State College for ten days, July 16, for the ninth BFA conference of City Workers of the Y.W.C.A. There were three major emphases to the conference's activities and discussions. It was first of all an educational conference. Secondly, it was a getting together for a group association; and in the third place it was the occasion of a symposium on the work life of Negro women and girls. In this last respect much was contributed to the work by Mrs. Phyllis Holmes, industrial secretary of the 177th Street Branch New York City: Miss Eleanor Copen- NEGRO WORKERS SHUN UNION BID HERE Say they Won't be Cat's Paws for A.F. of L. Local. WILL STAND PAT Union's Past Attitude is Not Assuring, they Say. Between 400 and 500 Negro garments workers in local shops refused to join in a city-wide strike here this week called by the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union. As a result, the strike may be a failure. Only one Negro garment worker, who gave his name as George Jackson, 635 W. Lafayette Avenue, was seen at the headquarters of the union this week; and officials admit that less than half a dozen of the Negro workers have aligned themselves with the organization. Called Cat's Paw Workers interviewed by the AFO-AMERICAN reporters explained that they refused to be used as cat's paws to pull union chestnuts out of the fire. Even with the unions winning, they declare, they have nothing to gain. if they are to take the past as a criticism, they are to unionism, but that the government workers locals have not been very solicitous as to their welfare and that even now they are barred from some of the more advanced unions in the needle trades. Organizer Here Stanley E. Grain, National A.F.L. organizer from New York and California, came to Baltimore this week to take charge of the colored end of the fight, he said. He will old meetings and try to induce Negro workers to join the union. "They have everything to gain, and nothing to loss," says Grain. "If the white strikers win, and the Negro stays out of the union, it will mean loss of jobs. If the white workers win with the Negro workers, the union, a chance of keeping their jobs. And even as union members, they could scab any-way," he argued. Negroes are the Key That the Negro workers in the city constitute the key to the strike's success or failure is admitted by most observers here. The white employers here know that as long as the Negro stay out, they can buck the union; and the knowledge that they would not join the strike is said to have largely influenced a refusal of the union demands. At the Maryland Cloak Company, for instance, where they have around 300 Negro employees, all were at a FARFO Thursday morning when an AFRO reporter visited the place. According to the proprietor of this place, some Negro employees have been with him from three to ten years and has never found occasion to fire any of them, even during the present depression. Arrest Pickets Police of the Central District arrested six white pickets who were trying to entice Negro worker... out of shops in that section. Captain Mintiens issued a statement that any attempt at violence would be dealt with. It had been rumored that white workers in some instances had threatened to prevent Negro work. is from taking the places of those out on strike. 700 Whites Out From figures obtained from various sources, there are around 700 white workers out on strike. Nineteen of the shops have been crippled by the walk-out, but most of these are shops where there were few or no Negro workers employed. An appeal to many Negro ministers and leaders here to help urge [several] garment workers in join the union has been unavailing. They point out that the policy of the American Federation of Labor in arranging locals to bar Negroes as members in most of the unions, will always serve to keep the trade able to any effort in time of strikes. The effort to organize the Negro workers started, several weeks ago, when the Uni... decided to submit new working conditions and demands. Lye Thrower Awaits Trial A further step of action was made by Judge Thomas O'Neill of the Northeastern Police Court in the case of Charles Saxton, 1428 Hemple Court, who seriously injured him and probably blinded him, Miss Maggie when he hurled her injury set on face on July 3rd. The case was set for a hearing on August 7th, as the young woman is still confined to the Johns Hopkins Hospital.

HOOK and LINE ROD and REEL E. Lee LeCompte. State Game Warden of Maryland, calls the public's attention to the laws regulating the taking of fish from the fresh waters of the Potomac River in West Virginia, a point where the tide ebbs and flows. The new code of game and fish laws of Virginia provides that any person fishing must have an anglers license in possession, view at all times while fishing and shall only be permitted to fish in sald waters by angling with hook and line attached to a pole, either with or without a net. The rule adds of a hand-landing net. The one season is as follows: BLACK BASE—June 15th to March 15th bag limit 15 per day; 150 per session ROCK BASS or RED EYE-JULY 1st to March 1st. minimum length B inches. Minimum length B inches. March 15th: hag hag 15 per day, 150 TROUT (any species)-April 11 to June 10; brook or mountain trout, minimum length, all species; circles of water, 100 per species. These regulations apply to the tributary streams of the Potomac River lying in Virginia. Judge William S. Snow, a member of the Game and Inland Fisheries of Virginia, in addressing a sportsman of Washington, D.C., quotes the following: "The attorney-general of Virginia has constructed the new fishing license law for the fresh waters of the state, including both tidal and nontidal waters, must have a fishing license. The fresh tidal tributaries of the Potomac River, beginning with Potomac Creek and considered within the ruling, and our department is enforcing the license law in these tributaries." This would also apply to all tributaries of the Potomac River lying in Virginia. virginia indianapolis owns the majority of the waters of the Potomac River; however, the creek, coves and inlets on the south side of the River belong to Virginia, and any person other than a resident of Virginia will be required to procure a resident angler; in the creeks, the rivers and tributary streams of the Potomac River in Virginia territory, the cost of which is $5.00.

BROOKLYN, N.Y.-Hilldale split a doubleheader here Sunday with the Bay Parkway club, white, before a big crowd, dropping the first game, 11 to 3, but taking the nightcap by 2 to 2 count. Brilliant fielding by the losers in the second game prevented the Dariess from running up a larger score. Briggs and Reid were the stars, collecting three hits each and paving the way for the victory. Saturday, at Philadelphia, Hill was stationed by the Cuban Stars, 6-5. The visitors went out in front in the first innning when they pushed over the first run, and virtually tucked away the game in the fourth when they missed the first hitting attack over their Scapts' slaps. Dibigo Starts Rally Dhikgo started the rally by polling a long drive over the center field fence. Successive triples by Chacon, Albrens the starer a quartet of markers. Hildale staged a belated rally in the ninth inning that airbnb brought to light. Albrens started the flareup by belting a home run drive over the center field fence and a single by Joe Lewis followed by doubles from Ivan Djokovic to Daisies within a single run of tying the score. Abruziz relieved the faltering Abrens at this stage of the game and off further scoring by the Darkbirds. Mayfair Defeated Hildale finished a torrid day's work when they polished off the fast stepping Mayfair team in a twilight contest, 8 to 3. The Daisies felled sensationally, turning in three double plays and topping up the team in the fourth inning. Biz Mackey's work around the keystone sack was the main cog in the Hildale infield. The big fellow handled ten difficult chances without the semblance of a slip and helped Phil Cockrell out of round places on several occasions.

D.C. 'SHOE PITCHERS PREP FOR TOURNEYS Capital Twirlers, Representing Twelfth Street "Y", Hard at Work. BAYLOR IS STILL ACE Washington Group Plans to Play Baltimore Again. (Washington Bureau of the AFRO) WASHINGTON—Horseshoe pilchers of the Twelfth Street "Y" are training hard, daily, for the coming dual matches with the Baltimore team of the AFRO-AMERICAN. The Washington "Y" won last year by only one game. The team which is known as the "Four Horsemen" is taking the matter of the coming match seriously. The group is making three trips weekly to the small towns in Virginia and Maryland, and is meeting keen competition in both states in their bid for championships. That horseshoe pitching acrouses the competitive spirit to the fullest and the most competitive match between the "Y" group and the tossers from Baltimore. According to courts recently, the Maryland twirlers will be hard to beat. He admits that he has changed his twirling style in modern one-turn open shoe method. Baylor Better Now "The Four Horsemen" are all open shoots shoes. Baylor, master; "them all, is better than ever. His_record is outstanding. Last year while competing in the city horseshoe tournament, Baylor was champion of the colored playground and it is believed that he would have held his own with ease against the champion of the white playgrounds. A match between the two was successful and Baylor was champion of the ground of separate playground conditions. The other three members of the team are Annie Hayes, a veteran of the State of Kansas, "Sweep" Guithers and Arthur West, are also exceptional pitchers.

The fans are turning out in small numbers to witness the Detroit Stars in their contests with other teams in the Negro National League. It is doubtful whether any other town in the circuit is suffering from this epidemic as much as Detroit. If any one has the slightest doubt as to the cause of the lack of interest on the part of the fans, let him take a trip to the Hamtramck Stadium, the new home of the Detroit entry in the league. The responsibility will be found with John Roesink, builder of the park and owner of the Detroit Stars. In the comparatively short time that the park has been completed, Roesink, a white man, has done more to antagonize the fans than any previous owner in the ten years the team has been in Detroit. During the recent series with the Kansas City Monarchs at the Stadium, Roesink caught to have Bingo DeMoss, manager of the Detroit club, arrested when DeMoss remonstrated with the owner of the park for using abusive language because some of the fans were inquiring for a drinking fountain. Roesink is the same man who owned and operated the old park on Mack Avenue, where the Stars played for ten years. For years Tenny Blount and Steve Pierce ploaded with Roesink to put the park in a condition that would be in keeping with the price charged. Only the conflagration that gutted the main grandstand last July resulted in the erection of the new stadium at Hamtramck. More than a hundred fans were injured in the fire. And it is not on record that Roesink ever visited the hospital to express sympathy to the victims of the fire. John was too busy counting the customers that would be lost by the fire. White umpires, white concessionaires, and white ticket sellers are employed at the Park. And Negroes get jobs only as menials, even though ninety-nine per cent of the fans are colored. In other years the arbiterers were members of the Umpires' Association or the Federated Umpires, and received no less than seven dollars a game with two men working. Roesink hustled up some of his friends and gave them five dollars each, and some games only use money. It is that the fans and menials complaining about the raw decisions in Detroit. Consult Mollino, Dismukes, or Taylor. Rogan also might verify the statement. John Roesink's actions have chased thousand of fans from the park. John Loggin, a regular attendant at the park for years, said that he would never enter the gates as long as Roesink was at the helm. Others have started circulating petitions to send to William C. Hueston, president of the league, demanding a change in the policy at the park. 'Tain't So.

With these tournaments out of the way there writers who think that there should be still another one are fishing around for an "angel." This tournament, will be a real open tournament with invited ranking players who reside in the East. The competition will be staged after the nationalists. Local tennis players have become trophy-hounding to be hard to get some of them to play over trophy dangling over the net. In other cities upon them to organize tennis clubs and, supplemented them in interest, encursers their tournaments, arranging for MONTHS IN ADVANCE. They also must be certain of their affiliation with the nationalist as a layman. I would like to place a little advice on local tennis enthusiasts. First of all, there must be organization of local tennis players. Secondly, must be recognized by and have the sanction of the Association for such tournaments as it may and finally, such an organization must do some before sitting down whining about what others should I am certain that if such a group existed here of running a real tournament would be as a ranking tennis players are going to bother them allermore when they know that they will receive notice for playing in a Monumental City tournament here and will come again when the condition There is a tendency on the part of the younger players to sit in the background waiting for the Mac finance tennis here.

But to become better acquainted with the rudiment learn more about the rules of tennis etiquette. Bags might not mind digging down in their pocket cleft. But to put cups up now, with the low ebb at wrists here, and with no outside competition offer be somewhat similar to picking the fastest spring of one-legged men. With these tournaments out of the way there are some ball-patters who think that there should be still another tournament, and they are fishing around for an "angel." This tournament, if conducted, will be a real open tournament with invitations being extended to ranking players who reside in the East. If held at all, the competition will be staged after the national. Local tennis players have become trophy-hounds and it is soon going to be hard to get some of them play unless there is a silver trophy dangling over the court. Other cities the players take it upon themselves, stage tennis clubs and with their own funds, stage the donations from interested individuals and support the tournaments, arranging for them WEEKS, sometimes MONTHS IN ADVANCE. They also make it a point to be certain of their affiliation with the national organization, and invite as many stars to their tournaments (open) as they can. As a layman, I would like to place a little advice on the counter for local tennis enthusiasts. First of all, there must be a functioning organization of local tennis players. Secondly, that organization must be recognized and have the sanction of the Tennis Association for such tournaments as desired to stage. And finally, such an organization must do some things for itself before sitting down whining about what others should do for them. I am certain that the group existed here in Baltimore, the most famous real tournament would be as easy as pie. No ranking tennis players are going to bother themselves to come to Baltimore when they know that they will receive no rating or recognition for playing in a Memorial City tournament. They have come here and will come again when the conditions are conductive. There is a tendency on the part of the younger group of tennis players to sit in the background waiting for the Monumental group to finance tennis here. That is a wrong attitude. Even if that body has money idle in the treasury, it still attains money and money is vested as voted by the group. Men like Dr. Rhette and the Rett W, W. Walker have shown that they are interested financially as well as from a physical viewpoint. But it seems to me that their interest remains unmatched by the group of cup hunters, who if faced with real tennis competition would wilt like the proverbial flower of the field. It would be much better to become acquainted with the rudiments of the game; to learn more about the rules of tennis etiquette. Then, donors of cups might not mind digging down in their pockets to make up a deficit. But to put cups up now, with the low ebb at which tennis now exists here, and with no outside competition offered, seems to me to be somewhat similar to plecking the fastest sprinter at a convention of one-legged men.

Jennings in a story in the New York Graphic. Mr. Jennings says: Singer frankly stated that his reason for refusing to fight Kid Chocolate, the Cuban boxer, until the latter became a bona fide lightweight, was in revenge for the tacitus under his manager, when Al was signed to box the Bomb Bomb Buddy last year. "Gutierrez," said Al. "made it a habit to get matches with good boxers who were six or seven pounds heavier than Chocolate and insist that they weigh in at a poundage that is better than their efficiency against his boxer.

WATCHING THE BIG PARADE WATCHING THE BIG PARADE The Art of Washing Steps. If you read your newspapers you probably have learned that an inventor has perfected a self-watering flower pot. This may add a lot to human happiness, but until some enterprising genius invents a pair of self-washing white marble stems, the millennium will never be reached in Baltimore. Baltimore's white marble steps have been a source of much reflection and meditation on my part, and like the rugged mountaineers, I've often thought there's romance in them thar说。 And so it is. Many a man who now laying his weekly pay check on the ailar of the forestry firm, unwinding too long and too often on the marble stools that protrude from every Baltimore home. Their unblemished whiteness, symbolizing purity," he says. In these many years, rendering the hoodwinked male completely oblivious to the nest of Cupid's darts carefully concealed under the fluffy pillows upon which the enchantress sits like a Nile queen upon a He is disconcerted like a country peasant presented at court, and with his senses further numbed by a hypocritical moon which assumes the aids and pressions of the deception, he drinks in the bourgeois creature, encased in fluffy midsummer frills, and imagines himself the luckiest man in the world, but here I find myself waxing sentimental, and I am very serious and practical business of washing these steps, not sitting on them. Natures Revealed. The nature of women is revealed nowhere half so much as in step washing, and by this I do not refer to the exhibitions that some of them make while in the act of applying soap and suds. Some women, you will notice, go about their laborious task with a sort of unexplainable pride. They view their handwork with the critical expression of a Parthenia in a preserved canvas in his aatt, a sort of feaulous pride it is, that causes a slight sneer to creep across their sweat stained faces as they compartmentalize fronts with the tools of their neighbors. Yet no sooner do they gather their brushes, rags and pall and enter, than a street Arab, muddy of feet and soiled of clothes, mounts the steps to inquire whether they want some That he possesses no esthetic taste is evidenced by the uncanny way he has of getting one or the other of his soiled hoofs on every exposed area of the once spotted fur of a brine that brines to leaves that imbue poem about treat men leaving their footprints on the sands of time. Others are Different. Then there is the woman who tackles her steps like a gailley slave being sorgured to his dungeon; if that is where they source galley slaves—which I doubt. There is a listlessness about the way she applies her pumice stone, a lack of empathy and a rearrant amputation. These women do not possess such sentimentality about their steps as the type described in the previous paragraphs. They place a stone on their foot, so they leaf along with a sort of don't-carish inertia that reveals a lack of personal interest in their task. And then, suddenly, they may make a burst of splashing with the ear of a disobedient offspring. There is no tenderness, no gentle caresses, no act or word reveals that the daily application of the ear that is required any sweet reminiscences of the past. These women either have no souls or else they have sat upon these steps with no protecting pillow between them and the ear, and have a pleasant impression upon the human anatomy. I assure you. There Ought to be a Law. Frankly, I am stumped by this momentous problem of step washing, although some amicable solution must be found. Perhaps there could be a law of some kind or other, but what sort of law should it be? The feminine voters would in all countries provide divided, pro and con, on the question of abolishing the white steps. The professional women would perhaps favor any legislation that would relieve them of the indignity of giving demons for their labor for hours, and women who work in service would welcome a relief from additional labor upon their return from toiling among pots and pans. The slav-at-home wives, we strike opposition. The average Baltimore housewife is very shallow minded—a conclusion I have reached from sizing up the average Baltimore husband—and the only mental relief she gets to the steps farrier and whitener, to the steps farrier and whitener, her time and keeps the iceman moving at a reasonable length of time. It furnishes an outlet for the creative change of mortal战斗 breaking out to relieve the physical tension. All of these thint arguments could be used in an attempt to run for public office on an "abolition-of-white-steps" platform, which I have been seriously These women being in the majority, I fear my political aspirations must be stifled for the present. To oppose them, we must use the few of the few would be nothing short of political suicide, and as at present I am already a nenticity in this phase of the well-rounded life, why should I be so afraid? The white steps must remain and the washing continue, let the suds stop where they may.

Cet Rid of Weeds Get Rid of Weeds The use of chemicals to rid yards and gardens of weeds has been emphasized of late by the commercial interest in inject weed infested areas. Many of these depend upon sodium or calcium chlorate or upon arsenates for their effectiveness. Weed killers in this country only five years ago, chlorates have produced both some grand successes and some miserable failures" states J. P. Kleer, University of Illinois. "This is the result, no doubt, of ignorance in the use of the materials, for only a small amount of experimental evidence has been obtained." The promise of promising in the control of noxious weeds, but their use should be confined to small amounts until such time as experimental evider, will present more definite recommendations." The point has not been reached. Prof. Pleper believes, when chlorates can be recommended with assurance that will be successful under all conditions.

HIGHLAND BEACH, Md. — With community interests divided between the prosecution of Richard Ware, hotel owner, and the annual election of town officials, this exclusive little summer resort was kept exceedingly busy last Saturday. Haley D. Douglas was re-elected mayor, and all the old town commissioners were re-elected also. Dr. include Thomas Holmes and Mrs William Wells, Talley Holmes and Mrs William Dougherty. Roscoe Evans, this candidate on the ballot, made up the opposition. He went down in noble defeat. An injunction restraining Ware from permitting the porch of his hotel to remain on Highland Beach territory was granted Saturday. By this ruling, Ware will be allowed to obtain permission of the town authorities to permit it to remain, which is extremely doubtful in face of the opposition he has already en puntered from this source since the erection of his hotel. Ware was found guilty of contempt for executing the addition without first obtaining permission of the authorities. He has noted an ap- Wilberforce's Graduate Dies GALVESTON. Texas.

The order of the states in which the children are show to the best advantage were listed by Prof. Robinson as follows: From the point of view of teachers' salaries--Missouri, West Virginia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Arkansas, North Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama.

Dr. Coote屋, Kansas City, M PORO COLLEGE MOVES PLANT TO CHICAGO Entire Block on S. Parkway to House Malone Concern. KEEP BUILDING CHICAGO, Ill. (ANP)—Poro College has moved its headquarters to Chicago. Mrs. Annie M. Malone, founder and owner of the famous institution, made the announcement this week in a letter which was sent to the more than 50,000 agents affiliated with this organization who are scattered throughout the country. It has been known for some time in business circles here that Mrs. Malone was quietly acquiring extensive real estate holdings in Chicago. She now owns the entire block or South Parkway, formerly Grand Boulevard, between 44th and 45th Streets. This block in former years was occupied by a group of multi-millionaires, John R. Thompson, the restaurant man, Thomas Carey, the brick magnate, and other ultra wealthy men built the magnificent houses surrounded by expensive lawns which fill the block. These buildings have been remodeled and for the present will house the various departments of the business. One structure for sometime has been occupied by the College of Beauty Culture. Pian to Build Poro Block will be the designation of this new Poro home. Mrs. Malone is said to have plans for a pretentious building program, but no announcement of her intentions in this regard has been made public. Mrs. Malone did, however, issue a statement in which she explained the transfer of the business from St. Louis to Chicago. "We have felt for sometime," she said, "that Chicago was the logical place for our main plant." "In the first place our volume of business among the 200,000 colored residents of Chicago is larger than at any other single point. Again, we are concerned with the supply of consequent savings from a manufacturing and shipping standpoint. Too, Chicago, in my opinion, is the capital of Negro America. The people here are accomplishing things. The atmosphere is one of commercial striving, endeavor, and promise. Southern City "St. Louis is a wonderful city. I love my own people in St. Louis. I have tried to serve them. But St. Louis in most of its attitudes is a Southern city. My experience would lead me to doubt that Negro businesses can grow to large magnitude in the South without feeling something of restraint, as well as a certain sense of insecurity. We are hopeful that Chicago will offer opportunity for continued growth and development so that we may have the privilege of rendering better service to our fellow women and men." The gigantic task of moving Poro, undoubtedly the largest manufacturing enterprise within the group, from one city to another, was accomplished with the precision and dispatch for which the organization is famous. Everything was planned. It is said that shipping and correspondence suffered only one day's delay. Nearly a special freight train was required as transportation mode from the fleet of motor cars which brought loads of special equipment over the highway. Practically all of the managerial, clerical, and manufacturing personnel moved to Chicago with the business. Many whole families moved to Chicago to work in the organization who were working in the organization and wished to retain their places. Gets Welcome The employees left St. Louis at midnight Saturday night in a calacade of buses, arriving in Chicago Sunday. They were met by Mrs. Malone, the Chicago employees, and a colleague whom they something of a formal welcome. Dean William Pickens, Field Secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., Assemblyman George T. Kersey, president of the National Negro Undertakers Association, Howard executive director of the Mount Glenwood Foundation, Mrs. Lee, president of the Chicago Poro Club, an organization comprising a thousand women, and Dr. C. K. Bartlett, were among those who spoke Music was rendered by the Centurian President. Mr. Pickens in a stirring address ended by saying, "I marvel at the exert't and the possibilities of Poro in Chicago. I thought Poro building at St. Louis was wonderful, but I see that it was but a stepping stone toward a greatly great future of Poro in Chicago." A few employees have been left at St. Louis to care for the Foro Building, which commode the public which has been accustomed to its hospitality. A branch office is to be maintained made of the building, however, has not been determined. Mrs. Malone is said to prefer that the building which commode the community center to St. Louis be used to which will continue it in the service of the community, rather than to accustom it to convert it into an industrial site. FIRST OF HUBERT Continued from Page One panions and a Negro youth is said to have told them to take the lady home. In true Southern style, the men went away and returned with their friends to deal with the youth. Later in the day, while young Hubert was playing in the yard, the men, accompanied him, approached him according to testimony. His parents testified that their son was at home all the afternoon and did not go to the playground until six o'clock. It was then that the men drove up in an automobile, and one of them caught him by the coat and struck him. Hubert, surprised and perplexed, made no defense as he came into the family, him in the head. No doubt he died ignorant of any of the events leading up to the killing. Makes Confession The climax of the trial came Friday, when, in an effort to save Martin, Aubrey Sikes, white, one of the men in the killing, went on the stand and testified that it was he who fired the shot which killed Hubert. He claimed that he shot in self defense when the boy, who had assaulted a white woman, advanced upon him with a knife. Witnesses testified that no weapon was found on or near Hubert. Family Prominent Dennis Hubert, who was 15 years of age, was a member of the Hubert family, one of the most prominent in the South. His father, the Rev. Robert Hubert, was the pastor, is one of twelve brothers, all of them filling prominent places of leadership. Three of them are at the head of colleges in the South, one of them being the executive secretary of the New York Urban League. House Burned Another outcome of the affair which sent a shocking chill through both white and Negro Atlanta, was that Mr. Hubert, Mr. Hubert, father of the boy, shortly after the men were arrested and charged with the killing. Mr. Hubert, father of that fire was incarnate, incordial origin and the outrage was perpetrated by whites to intimidate Negroes and vent their anger at the arrest of white men. This happened two days after a bail hearing of the accused men. This was followed by the throwup of a car, which was found at the intersection Church where citizens had gathered to take steps to secure the proper prosecution of the slayers. Whites Join Protest Leading white men and women in Atlanta have joined vigorously in the fight on the side of law and order. Immediately following the burning of the home of Rev. James A. Manger, headed by John A. Manger, a prominent white citizen, was organized and daily contributions of from one to one hundred dollars have come in to rebuild the home. Will W. Alexander, of the racial movement of others have taken steps to bring into the fight to shut Atlanta from the stigma and show law-abiding Negroes that they do not sit idly by when an outrage of this kind is perpetrated. Police guards have been placed about Morehouse College and Spelman College and Atlanta University to other reunions. Thomas Describes Scene Describing the scene of the trial, Jesse O. Thomas, southern field secretary of the National Urban League with offices in Atlanta, declared: "In spite of the hot weather, the crowded condition of the courtroom with men standing in the doors and the evidence and intensity of the conflicting interests, indifference, intimidation, intimidation, or embarrassment. The presiding judge could give no more impassionate, deliberate consideration if the person under indictment were the governor of the state or president of the state. The conduct of the attorneys has been free from unkind, unwarranted insinuations or expressions calculated to humiliate or embarrass either racial group. Attorney Allen has not indulged in the conduct of witnesses that is frequently used by lawyers under similar circumstances. The Negro witnesses on the contrary have had as much respect at his hands as at the hands of Attorney Howard himself. Only one of the witnesses, Nigger" be used by Attorney Allen. "The Negro race and the citizens of the community in general appreciate the dignified manner in which this case is being handled and the freedom from the type of handling that has been imposed, intensify misunderstanding. Each day from early morning until late afternoon there have been several times more Negroes in the courthouse than this particular room could accommodate. Many interested white persons have misunderstood the influence motivating this case and have been in the courthouse building, on its steps and in the lobby, representing an overflow each day since the trial started. "This has not been occasioned by any spirit or attitude of whatever kind. The influence of the family connections of the deceased, the unprovoked circumstances surrounding his death have raised a question in the minds of the serious minded Negroes of the community as to what circumstances can a Negro be sure that he has qualified for citizenship protection on the one hand and on the other hand what would happen so far as the courts are concerned if an individual was killed in a blood murder without provocation. The Negro has not come to rejoice for any penalty or conviction that may follow the trial as such. "He has come once more to the conclusion that upright behavior hits its reward, even for members of minority groups and weaker people." WEEKLY FIRES No. 1416 McCulloch Street.

This picnic, it was explained, had nothing to do with the visiting convention and the affair. The fact that fell this year on the opening of the convention was a coincidence it was said. More than forty ministers of the city were carried as guests of the lodge. The picnic was held at Cambridge, MD. Mayor Disappoints The second disappointment came Monday night when Mayor Broening, who, according to the program, was scheduled to deliver a welcome address on behalf of the city, failed to appear. Services were delayed three quarters of an hour, but when neither the mayor nor any of the official family put in an appearance, the program went on with Dr. George W. Lucas, of Louisiana, acting as master of ceremonies. Tuesday, M. Theodore McKelden, secretary of Mayor Broening, told the mayor that no invitation to speak the opening had been received by the mayor. Governer too Busy A letter from Governor Albert C. Ritchie was read, in which the executive expressed regrets for the ability to attend that extra session and did him at Annapolis. The welcoming session, with the exception of the visiting delegates, was sparsely attended. This was attributed to the fact that the fraternal people were out of the city attending an anniversary outing sponsored by the Monumental Lodge of Elks, at Gatonsville, and that the member part of the day, participation in a monster parade with two bands of music, the occasion being the thirteenth anniversary of the founding of the Monumental Lodge. Elk Lodge are also high in Masonic circles, it was disclosed. The failure of many ministers to appear at the sessions was attributed to the number of all denominations which accompanied the Masons to Cambridge, the Baptist ministers gave their annual picnic at Early Heights on the same day, and many ministers of this group are also affiliated with the local fraternity, it was stated that the date for the picnic was set long before the convention was announced. Called Clandestine The visiting convention, which is headed by G. C. Williams, is meeting opposition because they represent a action which seems from the regular order of Masons several years ago and formed what the parent body terms a clandestine or spurius organization. It is recorded them in Baltimore is a duplication of that in other cities where the opposing order is in the majority. DR. MOTON REPORTS DR. MOTON REPORTS Continued from Face One ever that education should be divided as far as possible from government. Situation Tense The political situation in Haiti, Dr. Moton said, is tense because of the failure of American authority to approve reductions of American taxes on insurance companies commissioned in the Forbes commission report. Immediate action to remedy this situation was recommended. Members of the commission in addition to the president, Dr. Mordeal W. Johnson, president of Howard University; Leo M. Favor, white, field secretary of the General Education Board; Benjamin F. Huset, president; Benjamin F. Huset, president; Dr. W. T. B. Williams, dean of Tassagee Institute. STATE DEPT. SAYS STATE DEPT. SAYS Continued from Page One I say, Autonomical aspect that have been in advance predicated upon the findings of the Commission, and French Trouble It is an evident fact with the Department that the British and French Governments have long since been a source of trouble in London, en route to London, during an interview with the Hon. Ramsey McDonald and Sir Samuel Wilson, while on a visit in London en route to London, of these two statements toward the capitulation of Liberia to one of the greater powers throw upon the British Government and warrant one to presume that a fixed determination has been arrived at in regard of being the British Government and the Department of course knows, this anxiety on the part of the British is mainly to connect Liberia with the neighbouring colony Sierra Leone in order to base on the West Coast of Africa. All ships take their bearings at Monrovia to depart. The ship is left with the Dependent to surmise how this scheme will work out. Their predecessor has been tried several times and the negro Republic has exhibited its pronounced limitation to the appearance of such a febrile independent state would be greatly detrimental to the Republic, and close connections with Liberia. The French, of course, are irrational and make no objection but that part of Liberia must go to them. Faulkner Asked to Write With the above in mind, it is not to be wondered that certain intrigues, which the Liberian Government had not been accustomed to aware of, had been on foot previous to the visit of Mr. T. T. J. R. Faulkner to Europe in 1922. The Liberian, a copy of which he transmitted to the Department. In passing I may be reminded of an advised letter this letter, and informations have been gained from authoritative sources, that he was reminded or advised that the writing of the letter was made by the Liberia, as the League of Nations will then only demand the removal from office of the Secretary General of these depredations and new ones installed. The Department knows the rest of the story and how it came in as a mediator, and notes of June 18, 1929, and the action by the Liberian Government, which for a while, and for a grendishment of the powers concerned. Liberian Delegate The Commission was organized on April 8th, and has since been getting the desired information. Albernard Delegate, as Johnson's deputy, has been the part of a defense counsel, and much will not be expected of him as a member of the Commission. Another regrettable circumstances is that certain high officials of Government are using their powers both openly and clandestinely to be informants and tyrannize those who have testified and this is hampering the work of the Commission. There is authentic proofs of the Commission. Commission will include in their findings. Forced Labor However, it has been clearly proven that it is Forced Labor on the roads (men are brought miles from their homes—commercially and slavely Convention—to work without foot tools and fined and some flogged to death). This certainly too is analogous to slavery. It is also clearly proven not only by oral testimony that the men have been shipped forcefully by aid of soldiers, to Spanish Territory, and to French Congo. Certain pictures are now on hand to learn that men will be handed over to Commission Report of the conversation between BALTIMORE DEATHS AND MARRIAGES Cut-Rate Prices That Are The Lowest In The City!

These depredations are very ugly but, in my opinion, they do not warrant. Liberia mandates that, the Mr. Sawker, I am not a point of patronage to obtain any question of point of patronage to obtain any question of a negro, is often governed by prejudices and inborn temperamental preferences, and is not amiss to amimist you, your wife, acts and best efforts are often misinterpreted and depreciated. I collectate lint from what has been submitted, I am convinced that there is forced labor and slavery to Liberia. I do not as yet know of any further outcome of the Johnson crisis on the leeward coast. Your obedient servant HENRY CARTER The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly JETER-RICHARDSON—Samuel, 23, 912 S.

SIMPSON'S 1637 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE Just Two Doors Above Regent Theatre AND DON'T FORGET If you need money at any time—we make the highest Loan on anything of value and we guarantee honest, courteous and fair treatment. 20 HAGERSTOWN, Md.—Cupid, that color-blind wielder of love-tipped arrows, brought confusion to a Harrisburg romance this week, when 17-year-old Mary A. Cleary, white, told her mother that her 24 - year - old groom, Charles A. Boe, was a colored man. As a result, the bride's honeymoon is shattered and the groom faces a pen term of from eighteen months to ten years for marrying a white girl in Maryland. Get License in Hazertown Got License in Hagerstown Just what happened behind the scenes of this interracial romance is not clear, but when Mary's mother and father learned that the marriage license had been secured in Hagerstown, they appealed to the law and Eoe was arrested and turned over to the authorities of this city. Both the bride and groom lived in Harrisburg where they met each other and became lovers. They attended dances and parties together and when the love affair became serious they decided to marry. On July 14 they came to this city where the license was secured and ceremony performed. It was not until they returned to their home that the parents were given the information that the groom had Negro blood in his veins. He is fair and as pink as most white men, the girl said, and she never thought of his race. Boe is said to have frankly admitted that his father had colored blood in his veins, but that his mother being white, he had never gone about with a tag advertising the fact. Faces Pen Term Since the Maryland laws makes marriage between couples one of whom has any trace of Negro blood in his or her veins, a crime. Boe faces a pen term.

UNION WINS IN GARMENT STRIKE SETTLEMENT UNION WINS IN GARMENT STRIKE SETTLEMENT Twelve Plants Sign Agreement Granting Terms Asked. TO UNIONIZE SHOPS Fight to Continue Until All Shops Yield. With the signing of terms agreeable to striking garment workers here, Tuesday, the International Ladies' Garment Workers of America won the first tilt in their fight to unionize and raise the wage and working standards of the craft here in Baltimore. The settlement affects about half of the 3,000 workers connected with the strike here, and union officials told the AFRO-AMERICAN that the fight would continue until every shop was unionized and brought under the agreement. Few Colored Employed Due to the fact that most of the Negro operators in the ladies' garment group are employed in the K. and W. and other shops not included among the employers signing the agreement. the agreement, the status of Negro workers is still a problem. Reporters of the AFRO-AMERICAN made a check-up on most of the 24 shops this week, and found less than half employing Negro workers. Counts made of those entering the shops where they were employed showed about 200 all told connected with the trade. While the K. and W. claim 300 on their payroll, a number of these are employed outside of the trade. A. L. Halpern, of Local No. 4, who is directing the strike here, told the AFRO-AMERICAN that there were about 150 Negro workers in the trade here in Baltimore. Only a Few Negroes Quit While most of the white employees walked out in the strike, only a few of the Negro workers did. Charles E. Grain, sent here to conduct the Negro end of the fight, declared that it would be to the interest of the Negro workers to join the union, as the agreement with all plants with which the union would deal would call for completely unionizing the shop. The twelve shops signing the agreement will hire none but union operators, and it is only a matter of time when all shops in the city would be unionized, he said. Speaking of conditions in the shops, Grain sold: "Previous to the strike, the whites were getting per garment anywhere from eight to ten cents more than Negroes were getting for the same work done. As an example: a white employee would get sixteen cents for a coat—the colored worker on the same coat would get from six to nine cents. The bosses promised him, however, that if he remained on the job he would raise him to twelve cents. That is while the strike is going on. The reason the bosses could promise more money and actually pay more, was because the colored workers in these shops are always paid much less than that of the whites. "Let us remember that in any strike where white and colored are concerned that that is usually the language of the bosses—in other words, they will promise anything, but as soon as work is slack, the Negro is the first fired and usually always, the last hired. "Local No. 4 of the International Lady Garment Workers—the only local in Baltimore that is willing to accept colored men and women on equal terms with themselves—is fighting to have the colored women underpaid if they will work with them it will mean wives for that organization. "Local No. 4. was afraid, however, that the colored men and women might have some misgivings with the approach of a white organizer to introduce them into the union, so that they brought me to Baltimore with the hope that I would be able to understand that where there is union, there is strength, and that if both white and black would demand from the bosses the same thing, victory would soon be theirs." 0 **Driver Crashes into Tree** TOWSON, Md.-While driving a truck on the Old Frederick St. Summerfield Burial and memorial and funeral mound of Jesse F.
