A Language 39th Year, Number 51 ATLANTIC CITY NUMBER WRITERS HAVE IT HARD Raiding Magistrate Makes Only Street Corners Safe. WHITES BACKERS Syndicates Don't Pay When "Hit." ATLANTIC CITY. — At least $12,000 per day, or an average of $1 per person, is chanced into the coffers of the "numbers" barons here, Magistrate Roselle T. Allmond told a representative of the AFRO-AMERICAN, Friday. A summary of the racket here reveals that you have the universal 999 chances to 1 that you will lose. If one happens to hit a lucky number, the possibilities are that the backer cannot be found to pay the "hit." Stressing that Atlantic City is a summer resort and that employment is seasonal, the jurist pictured the natives as being nearly poverty-streaked from their heavy plays. "Hotel work is the career field open to Negroes here," stated "Run-It," and what the hot number and gambling away their earnings will eventually close this door of opportunity if not halted." Raiding Judge Magistrate Allmond is popularly known as the "raiding judge" because of his police activities, then spoke of the drive by the district attorney's office to wipe out vice. Repeated raids by the magistrate, an investigators, and members of the two squad during the past six weeks driven the "numbers" rucketeers incove. While the jurist was conversing with the representative of the AFO, the telephone rang. A plain clothes man was making a report. A house at 1222 Baltic Avenue was suspected as a dope resort. Arrangements were made by Magistrate Allmond to import a Federal agent, a raid with investigators. He estimated that a quantity of opium valued at thousands of dollars would confiscated in the raid. Nin in the Bud Completing the talk over the phone Magistrate Almond turned to the interviewer and said: "You see, that place has just opened up in the midst of the colored district. We nip in the bud every outbreak that come to our investigation has caused that only white persons were the habitues, but it would certainly spread to the col- Country League Another organization aiding in the war on voice is the Atlantic County League. Not only is the body securing information upon which raids are conducted, but it is seeking to assure the hotel managements along the beach front that the colored employee is trustworthy. Change Squad Seven Times Change Squad Seven Times Idea indifference and corruption had to be responsible for the spread of the racket. The vice squad has been changed seven times within the past six months, adjustments against the numbers of the squad have been secured. They were found to be working in conjunction with the "numbers" writers. Wife a "Number" Fan Here, as in other places, the racket has left in its wake—poverty. A typical case was brought to the investigator, with the investigator carpenter, with his earnings $60 per week. His home was happy and well provided for until his wife became a fanatic about the "numbers." She played heavily. Recently the case of the family, which had become poverty- striken, was turned over to "the Overser," the film flammed here as elsewhere by the avaricious backers. A syndicate generally breaks up when big hit is made on its books. At- NEW YORK. (CNS) - Hampton In- litute will get one-twentieth of the entire residuary estate, of Mrs. Emma B.

Expose of the plot, to murder other Baptist leaders came at the habeas corpus hearing in behalf of George Washington, indicted for the first degree murder of Pierson.

(ANP) The apprehension of neighbors, that only tragedy would result from the May-December "after dark" interracial love affair between a 23-year-old white youth and his 45-year-old colored sweetheart was proved well founded when the husband of the woman was found murdered, last week. The eternal triangle, possessing one "white" side and two darker ones, was composed of Eugene Canon, a 46-year-old farmer, his wife Mary Belle, one year his junior, and Wilbur Holley, a 23-year-old white youth who was infatuated with Mrs. Canon. For months neighbors have observed young Holley visiting the Canon home and driving the automobile while she delivered a woven blanket, and had it that the elderly woman lavished gifts of various values on her youthful white lover while her husband struggled to make ends meet. Whiskey parties and moonlight rides, as well as those on very dark nights were frequent, according to the neighbors, but the rumors meant little or nothing because it was a white man and a Negro man, it been otherwise, a jorning would have resulted from the rumors. Husband Slain These rumors, however, turned into apparent realities Sunday morning, when the 46-year-old husband was shot down and killed by the white youth, following an argument between the two men over the effects of the woman. At killing was a mystery. Neighbors heard the shots. The body was continued on Page 17, Column 6 Colored Candidate Backed by Party Down State for House of Delegates LEONARDTOWN, Md. — In the primary election held here, on September 8, the official returns announced by the election board of supervisors, show that organization men swept the county by large majorities on both sides of the federal Committee.

Baltimore, Saturday, September 20, 1930 RAPIST'S VICTIM 61 RETIRED TEACHER 61, VICTIM OF RAPIST,24 RETIRED TEACHER 61, VICTIM OF RAPIST,24 Conservative Montgomery County Stirred by Shocking Crime. MAKES 2ND TRIP Rapist Climbs Ladder to Threaten Death. ROCKVILLE, Md.—Carlton Russell, 24, of Unity, was held for the action of the grand jury without bail Monday on the charge of rape. The victim is Miss Mollie McAbee, 61, a retired teacher who has had charge of many schools in Montgomery and Howard Counties, and universally respected by the whole community for her long public service. The crime shocked staid Montgomery County where-for fifty years women have-walked country roads after dark without fear. All residents claim this is the first crime of this nature which they can recall. According to testimony, Miss McAbee was persuading from a festival at the Howard school house and Russell offered to accompany her home. Regarding him as one of the boys whom she had taught in her long career, Miss McAbee consented, only to find herself attacked by the 24-year-old youth who placed his hand over her mouth and threatened her with death if she made an outcry. Made critically ill, the ex-teacher was able to drag herself to her home about a quarter of a mile distant. Makes Second Threat Not satisfied, the rapist climbed a ladder to a window on the second floor and again admonished her that he would kill her if she made an outcry. Despite his threat, Miss McAbee advised her minister who in turn summoned the police from Rockville, ten miles away. Chief of police Algie Moxley told the AFRO-AMERICAN Monday that it looked like a plain case of rape. Russell's friend have seized M. Prescott, wife of the officer to defend him, to doubt whether he will keep the case after he has investigated it thoroughly. Miss McAbee comes from one of the oldest and most respected families in the county. Her father was formerly pastor of the local church. A brother, William H. McAbee, is principal of an elementary school in Baltimore. The entire community has expressed its ill-will against Russell and ask that the court act promptly in this case. Miss McAbe has been made critically ill. Neighbors fear she may never completely recover from the shock. They also say, if the farm manager fails, he was persuaded to do the job by those who are interested in doing away with the retired teacher who lives in her big farm house on an acre alone. Also, the farm manager his wife who occupy one section of the dwelling. Major Washington Dead HAMPTON, Va. — Major Allen Washington, commandant of cadets at Hampton Institute for fifteen years died at 6 o'clock, September 16. Several weeks ago he suffered a stroke, but physicians hoped for his recovery. Major Washington was a native of Gloucester County, Va., and after graduation from Hampton, in 1897, was made captain and assistant commandant, serving under Major Moton. He had graduated a year after of him. The two were inseparable companions and in many respects were strikingly alike. They tipped often together in the Yale Europe together. Both were giants, standing well over 6 feet and weighing 210 pounds.

Carr told authorities that he had taken the girl home and returned more than to Yorktown, near Skidmore, and went to bed. It was sometime later when he was aroused and fired the shot. The bullet shattered the window panel and penetrated the girl's brain. Death was instantaneous and the victim also broke an arm in the fall from the window. The girl returned to surprise her lover, but her prank caused her death. A.M.E.

Partie More Sexy. Jim Crow for L Aplenty. Fifty to One Hundred Night's Fun. BY WILLIAM N. JONES NEW YORK—Just how wicked are the cabarets of Harlem? Just as from Earl Carroll's Vanities, the expectant visitor to Harlem night clubs leaves with a "just- not- as- bad- as- I- expected" attitude, there is plenty to justify the statement that Harlem tries to be wicked. Snake Hips Dance The newest effort to make new and unsophisticated visitors to the after-midnight amusement places blush and go back home telling how wicked Lil Ole New York is, the new New York City "big burg" of dance. While practically all of the night clubs have some version of this dance, it is - at the Saratoga Club down on Lenox Avenue, that it is revealed in its most amazing form. Till try to describe it: The dance of a dozen "most beautiful girls in the world" according to the uniformed waiter who has given you a seat and brought you your expensive ginger ale. Although you immediately recognize some of them as girls who have seen the street of some small "burg" in Arkansas, you settle yourself down for the "big shot." "Cuteness" There is a song where every girl registers "cuteness," and then they fit out to fit in again for the "snake hips" dance. First, this dance, which comprises a bumpy twisting motion of the middle portion of the body, is done standing up. Taking turns and surrounded by chorines, each dancer tries to become more impressive and wicked as he does "his stuff" for the delectation of the males for the species who happen to be present. Saratoga comes, however, when a group of girls do the same performance lying on their backs on the floor. This is perhaps about the most suggestive part of the review and ends the show. There is a song of course the "tap" dancing of the girls singing from table to table but the sophisticated night club habituates raps more for this than any part of the show while the visiting couples try to look unaffected. A Little Jim Crow The tendency to jim crow Negroes in the night clubs is becoming more and more evident. If you happen to be an early visitor, you will be surprised by the Patrise, Connie's or the Cotton Club, which Duke Ellington made famous, you will notice practically all the tables at the "ringside" marked "reserved". These are the choice seats and these are white parties expected around midnight. There is generally one period during the night, about the time for the seats are filled with whites while the Negro patrons fill the seats just behind. As the night wears on, the seats begin to leave, the waiters 'usher' the incoming colored patrons to the seats left vacant.

One hundred policemen prevented violence as the crowd grew to 5,000. The Negroes demanded jobs from the construction company. Oscar DePriest addressed the belligerent workmen. Advised them to avoid violence and agreed to accompany a representative committee of return to talk with the company officials.

SNAKE HAS 21 RATTLES MACON, Ga. — (CNS) — Henry White, living near Jones, in Jones, has been on the plantation of T. J. Russell, killed a snake with 21 rattles. Congressman Marked for $10,000; Two in Plot are Arrested. "You Rich, I Broke," Yells Gangster. CHICAGO. — Search was begun by police this week for Aaron Moshiek, white, notorious forger, in connection with the plot to extort $10,000 from Oscar DePriest, Congressman from the First Illinois district. The police suspect Moshiek may have organized the plot. Discovery by Assistant Prosecutor C. Wayland Brooks and Lieutenant Andrew Barry of the identity of "Joseph Gladstone," also sought as one of the white plotters against De Moshiek, to the search for Moshiek, long known to authorities as "Chicago's master mason." Identifies Goldstein "Gladstone," the investigators were informed, is Joseph Goldstein, white, racketeer and former confederate of Moskiel in forgeries. In 1928 Goldstein was convicted of forgery along with Moskiel and Morris Bokslowan, who were tried upon his alleged accomplices and testified against them. "To think of Goldstein is to think of Moskiel," said Lleu. Burry, "They quarrelved a year ago, but have probably made up by this time. Anyway, we want to question Moskiel." Moskiel said to me in New York Court records will be examined today to learn the present status of his cases, it was said. Plotter Makes Confession Solly Lason, Lason, 25 years old, 3747 Lake Park Avenue, a milk truck driver, made a complete confession, Mr. Brooks said, of his part in the extortion plot against Congressman DePriest. Lason was seized shortly after he had removed a decoy package containing $200 placed by DePriest in an old shanty at 17th and Wood Streets. In his confession Lason involved "Gladstone" or Goldstein, and Jus. Jink Lason, a male politician, struck at the wedding at 3815 Ellis Avenue. Link already had been arrested through the tracing of the license of an automobile used by several men whom detectives saw talking to Lason. In Link's home was found a quantity of liquor, two sawed-off shot-guns, and a pistol.

U.'s FRIEND, SEEMS LOST TO CONGRESS 2 LOSS OF CRAMTON BALANCED BY LOSS OF BLEASE Results of U.S. Senate Primaries Summed Up as a Draw. BYRNES KNOWN S. Carolina Still Has its Negro Hater. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Primary election results of last week, from the racial viewpoint of the Negro, may be summed up as a draw. Whatever gains there may come through the absence from the Seventy-second Congress of Senator Cole L. Blease, Democrat, of South Carolina, they will be offset by the retirement of Senator Louis C. Canton, Republican, of Michigan, and the presence in the upper body of Governor Huey P. Long, of Louisiana, and former Representative James P. Byrnes, of South Carolina. Senator Blease was heated by former Representative Byrnes. Mr. Canton was defeated by Senator P. Molokot, of Port Huron, Gov. Long was nominated to succeed the veteran Senator Joseph E. Ransdell. Senator Blease is a demagogue. He is an exponent of lynching. He preached race prejudice and religious bigotry. For violence and vulgarity of speech his equal can hardly be found. He conceives the Negro to be inferior and believes in "white supremacy." Burnes Enemy to H. U. Byrnes was a member of the House from 1911 to 1915, retiring after his defeat by Blease in 1924. He is regarded as a hard worker. He was not friendly to the Negro and made himself conspicuous by his objections to Federal appropriations to Howard University, having them stricken out on points of order that there was no authorization in law for them. Cramton to Be Missed Mr. Cranton was a member of the House for 15 years. He is the chairman of the subcommittee of the House appropriations committee, having charge of the Interior Department supply bill in which are carried items for Howard University. He always favored liberal Federal appropriations for the university, especially for buildings, and he was the father of the law passed recently which authorizes Federal appropriations for Howard University and put a stop to the striking out items on point. He was beaten by a "wet," although a recount will probably be necessary to determine the winner, the results being so close. Ransdell in Senate 17 Years In Louisiana it was a choice of two evils in a dirty campaign. Ransdell had had 30 years of experience in Congress, 13 years in the House and 17 years in the Senate. He is regarded as a reactionary and voted blindly on party matters. He and his colleague fought a losing fight to prevent appointment and confirmation of Walter L. Cohen as comptroller of customs at New Orleans. Gov. Long, who defended him, according to the newspaper, "will probably accuse the Senate every quality which Bleasen and Helfin reveal when working in concert, with touches of Brookhart and the lately deceased Vardaman thrown in. Or he may baffle the anxious Louisiana prophets by becoming conservative with success." Michigan Michigan Republicans renominated Senator James Couzens over former Governor Chase Osborn. His easy nomination means election.

COUPLE WED, 1918 Separation Came After Five Years in D.C. WASHINGTON, D.C. — Louis R. Lautier, the Washington correspondent of the AFEO, was named in a divorce bill filed in Chicago by the estranged wife, Mrs. Edith McGruder Lautier, 5845 Prairie Avenue, through her attorneys, Morris and Cashin, Mrs. Lautier, who was formerly of Atlanta, Georgia, charges her husband with cruelty and with failure to keep the terms of a separate decree awarded her in Washington, D.C. seven years ago. She asks temporary alimony and a solicitor's fees to be pending, and permanent alimony and support for their ten-year-old daughter, Louis Odessa, if the court finds in her favor. According to his wife's bill he formerly held a United States government position in Washington, but he is now said to be living exclusively of his earnings as a free-lance writer. The couple were married in 1918 in Atlanta, Georgia, Mrs. Lauter says in her petition. Later they went to Washington to live. In January, 1923, the bill states, they separated, and the bishop of Covington gave her a separate maintenance decree with $55 a month temporary alimony. The amount granted her by the court was insufficient for living purposes, Mrs. Laudier says in her petition, and she has been sent to Atlanta, where the expense not be so great. She came to Chicago in 1928, bringing her daughter with her. Later, however, she sent the girl back to her home. According to Mrs. Laudier, her husband ceased to pay her alimony regularly in November, 1923, a few months after the District of Columbia passed away, and then he has sent occasional small sums in the child, she declares.

DEMOTE NEWMAN 14 Vacancies in the Elementary Schools. WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Board of Education at its meeting Wednesday afternoon was expected to approve the recommendation of Walker L. Savoy, a junior high school teacher, to be principal of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School and adopt a policy regarding the transfer of kindergarten teachers to the elementary schools. These matters were before the board meeting on September 10, but opposition of board members to the appointment of Mr. Savoy and a demand for more time for study of a report covering the reorganization of the kindergarteners forced postponement of action on them until the next meeting of the board. Since the Superintendent Ballou has announced a plan for settlement of the kindergarten matter. Wilkinson Recommends The recommendation of Mr. Savoy for the principalship of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School was made by First Assistant Superintendent Garnet Wilkinson. He also recommended the appointment of Miss Mary L. Strong, an associate professor of English at West Virginia Collegiate Institute and supervisor of the teaching of English in the colloquial West Virginia head of the department of English and History in the colored high schools. The latter recommendation was approved. No. Conference Mary M. A. McNeill at first objected to both appointments. She later withdrew her objections to the appointment of Miss Strong when informed she had a master of arts degree. She said there had not been the usual conference between Mr. Wilkinson and colored board members regarding the appointments, that she knew nothing about Miss Strong except her qualifications which she had heard Superintendent Frank W. Ballou read, and that the case she had argued against would throw better qualified candidates, for the principalship of Garnet-Patterson Junior High School. Under these circumstances, she said, she preferred not to vote. Candidates Overlooked Mrs. McNeill charged that persons were appointed to positions who had to qualify after their assignment and that those who met the prescribed requirements had been overlooked. Such a policy, she declared, is destroying the morale of the teachers and that as long as it is followed she would continue to object. Mr. Wilkinson went on record as opposing the appointment of officers in the school system, or the absence of such systemifications. He said that in submitting recommendations he took into consideration the character; training, experience and personality of candidates. Hayneses Qualified He stated he had considered about 10 applicants for the principship of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School. There were three outstanding, he said. They were Mr. Savoy, Mr. Haynes, and Mr. Ephesia Haynes. Both Mr. and Mrs. Haynes received the degree of master of arts from Chicago University August 31 last. Mr. Savoy has not yet the degree of master of arts conferred upon him. He has finished all the requirements in classroom study, but he has not met the thesis and taken the examination. Mr. Wilkinson pointed out that Mr. Haynes has had 11 years' experience in senior high schools, 8 years in college, and 6 years in the Armstrong night school, while Mr. Savoy had had 12½ years experience in the elementary schools, and high schools and one-half year as the head teacher in an elementary school building. He said he resolved the doubt in favor of Mr. Haynes' experience in the elementary schools. Bennett Joins In Rev. F. I. A. Bennett joined with Rev. R. J. A. Bennett, the appointment of Mr. Savoy. The recommendation, however, was withdrawn until the next meeting of the Want Newman Reduced Reduction in the status of Capt. Arthur C. Newman, head of the department of military science of the Army, and the reduction by the personnel committee of the board of education. He was reduced from the principalship of Armstrong several years ago. He was transferred to the military science in the colored high schools was submitted to the board by Mr. Wilkinson and referred to the personnel committee. The charges against Mr. Newman are said to have been against the officers in the clerical. Hearin-* will be held by the personnel committee. 14 Vacancies There are 14 vacancies in the elementary schools of divisions 10 to 13, which ordinarily would be filled from the class of 10 to 13, and the class of the Miner Normal School. In view of the necessity of transferring certain kindergarten teachers to elementary schools it is doubtful whether elementary graduates will be appointed this year. New System of Appointments Congressional appropriations committees having directed a reduction in the number of kindergarten teachers and authorized their transfer to vocaciles in the elementary schools, a new system of appointments to elementary positions becomes necessary.

NEW YORK. — Eighteen lynchings thus far in the current year as compared with twelve for the entire year 1929, have brought about a determination in the N.A.A. C.P. to campaign anew for the enactment of a federal anti-lynch law. Attorneys of the N.A.A.C.P. under the leadership of Arthur B. Spingarn, white, chairman of the National Legal Committee, and Herbert K. Stockton who has exhaustively studied the measure, are already at work going over the bills introduced in past sessions of Congress with a view to drafting a measure when teeth in it. Besides the eighteen lynchings officially listed as such by the N.A.A.C. P. there are reports of five others the details as yet unverified and the N.A.A.C.P. is making every effort to obtain proof that they occurred White's Statement In announcing the decision to campaign for a new federal anti-lynching law, Walter White, acting secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., made the following statement: 'The nearest we ever got to the enactment of a federal anti-lynching law in 1923, when the House of representatives passed the Dyer bill, vote of 230 to 119, and a filibuster of Southern Senators from Lynch-States forced withdrawal of the sure. 'The threat of that bill did bring about a sharp reduction in the number of mob murders. And the N.A.A.C.P., hoping it would arouse impunity could become effective in stamping out this American disease, held in abeyance its demand for federal action. Mobs Rampant "But now the mobbists are again rampant. This year's record of shame will bulk large in the annals of lawlessness in this country. The States are powerless and indifferent. Probably not one of the publicly known mob murders will be seriously prosecuted or punished. We shall have a big introduction to the next session of the meeting, but that session will not continue until after the election, in November. Quiz Candidates So it behooves colored voters throughout the country to put this issue of lynching squarely up to all candidates for election to House or Senate from candidates in state senate from candidates how they will vote on federal action to end hunting. No general condemnation of job violence will do. Make them answer a specific question as to their use on a federal anti-lynching law.

NEW ORGANIZATION TO FIGHT LYNCHING NEW ORGANIZATION TO FIGHT LYNCHING Young Liberators Formed in Philadelphia to Combat Mob Evil. MANY CLUBS JOIN White and Colored Groups Affiliated with Movement. PHILADELPHIA.—Forty-six delegates representing sixteen sorority, social and athletic clubs met here Sunday at the Communist headquarters, 526 North 5th Street, and made plans to combat the spread of lynching through an organization to be known as the Young Liberators. Sixty white and colored persons were present. The clubs represented and the delegates representing each were: Tau Della Gama Sorority, 3; Loyal Friends, 4; Peersiess Athletic Club, 3; two Monarch Athletic Clubs, 3 delegates each; Russian Youth Club, 3; Lithuanian Chorus, 1; Marine Workers Industrial Union, 3; Bonnator, 2; Ukrainian Youth Club, 3; two branches of the American Negro Labor Congress sent 5 representatives each; the Young Communist League, 4, and the Provisional Youth Committee of the American Negro Labor Congress, 3. The new organization will be affiliated with the American Negro Labor Congress, and will add to its ranks by individual membership and club affiliations. The principal report and protest was made by Leonard Patterson, of Baltimore, representing the Youth Committee of the American Negro Labor Congress. He charged that the government of this country is the most powerful and most direct assistance to the lynchings and discriminations which are prevalent. Other subjects touched were the Jim-crowning of the Gold Star Mothers, and the orders of the governor of North Carolina recently to national guardsmen to "defend" two Negroes in jail, but not to shoot into the mob under any circumstances. Assuming the presence of the present wave of mobocracy, Patterson averted: "Lynching is the result of the present economic crisis. The bosses in trying to shoulder the burden of the workers instigate lynchings as a means of lowering the living standard of the colored workers." He is the leader of the capitalists to keep the white .nd Negro workers from organizing and fighting against economic conditions." A provisional committee of eleven members shall formulate the plans of the meeting. D.C. Lawyer Jailed for "Contempt" McLaurien Unable to Pay $6,400 Collected for Veterans WASHINGTON D.C. — Sylvester L. McLaurien, an attorney, *w* given this day by Justice Frederick L. Siddons in the District Supreme Court last Thursday in which to pay to William Ware, administrator of the estate of Malachal Lee, the balance of the sum of $6,400 which McLaurien is alleged to have collected from the Veterans Bureau. Justice Siddons ordered McLaurien to forcibly contort or court for failing to meet the terms of the order of the court. McLaurien paid over $1,000 in cash and assigned his interest in certain real estate. estimated at about $400 more. He then claimed he was unable to obey the court order. Justice Siddons ordered him to remain in custody until the order is complied with or the sentence is revoked and he was on a bond of $3,000 for his compliance within 30 days. DETROIT, Mich.—Benjamin F. Dunning, attorney, has filed damage suits against Sheriff Ira Wilson, aggregating in the total, one million dollars through his atttorney, Herbert U. White. Dunning, who was barred from practicing his profession about a year ago, declares that he was held on a capias issued in connection with a civil suit and that the one million will just about compensate him for the indignities and: discomfort he suffered as a resident of the county jail. The man who caused his arrest was to have paid for his board. Dunning claims he received the ordinary jail food and was subjected to the same regulations as the other prisoners while confined under lock and key. The million dollars also covers the discomforts undergone through sleeping on a jail bunk. Dunning asserts he was refused permission to bring his own bed to the jail, even though he offered to pay the cartage. Another part of the million asked for would cover mental anguish suffered through unfortunate social contacts with 'felons and malefactors.' Sheriff Wilson was defeated at the primaries last Tuesday. MISS. LYNCHES 2 WHO PROTEST Five Hurricanes Have Wrecked Cities in the Past Four Years MARRIED 27 YEARS; WIFE ASKS DECREE MISS. LYNCHES WHO PROTEST INNOCENCE Masked Men Hang Pair Accused of Holdup and Robbery. TIE GUARDS UP Masked Mob of 25 Has SCOOBA, Miss.—For stealing a wrist watch and $42 from a white couple in a hold-up, Pig Lockett and Holly White, were taken from officers by a band of masked men and hanged to a tree as the guardians looked on, Tuesday. The lynching occurred in a woods between Scooba and De Kalb in broad daylight, when the pair were being transferred from the De Kalb jail for a preliminary hearing on the robbery charges. The men had been arrested a week previously when Thomas McCoy, white, and his wife, of Fayetteville, Tenn., announced that while passing through the section en route from California, they had been held up. After making their complaint, the couple proceeded to Alabama, Georgia deputy sheriffs with bloodhounds trailed the culprits and arrested White and Lockett. Protest Innocence The suspects remained in the De Kalb jail for a week and were then being transferred to Scooba for identification and trial. Although the McCoys had never seen the pain and only the mute testimony of the bloodhounds was against them, a band of twenty-five masked men took their guilt for granted and pounced upon the car in which they were being transferred, tied the two deputies, Guy Byrd and J. J. Dotson, both white, to a tree and lynched the pain before their eyes. Many circumstances surrounding the lynching led to the belief that the officers themselves had full knowledge of the lynching plans and even tipped the mob off as to what time they were bringing the prisoners through and which route they were taking. This is indicated by the fact that they put up no fight to protect their prisoners and were able to release themselves unassisted after the lynching.

Bethel Association for insults and discountes to their pastor, the Rev. A J. Tyler, when he was the host to the association. In an open letter the officials declare: "In view of the fact that we have always been a respectful and financial member of the association, have always been acquiescent to all projects advanced, and have co-operated with every effort to advance the work when such was for the furtherance of good Christian feeling and spreading of the Kingdom of God upon the earth, we naturally feel very keenly these insults to our pastor and our church. "We need not speak of the esteem in which our pastor is held by us and other right thinking people the country over, for his work, his life, and his character speaks for itself. We do not speak of our church which opened its doors in the kindiest of Christian spirit, making every effort to please and make us satisfied the visitors, (after affection had partaken of salt) (as it were), proceeded to take every opportunity to insult us and in some instances, friends whom we had invited to our homes. Demand Apology "In our church we make every effort to serve God and do His will, and we are jealous, therefore, of the integrity of our pastor and the lot of God, which it has been our lot to fulfill and in which we try to serve Him." "So, in justice to our inestimable leader, Rev. A. J. Tyler, and out of respect to our God and in defense of his house; we are demanding from the officers and board of the Mt. Bethel Association, an immediate apology to our pastor and to our church, for the unChristianille spirit, disrespect, and general disgustful conduct of the officers of the association." The officials of the church are: Deacons; Rollie Mosley, chairman; Dan Cunningham, Berlean Day, John Fields, W. C. Green, William Harris, J. B. Lumpkins, James Lyles, William Marshall, William Moore, William Newman, William Overton, A. Scriber, Charles Walker, A. D. Strother, Arthur Wallace.

When we see a woman who is a perfect picture of love- illness, we are apt to think, "How fortunate she is." But that is not the explanation. Beauty it not a matter of chance or good fortune—it is something every woman can have, if she really wishes it. Perfect beauty is simply the result of perfect care of the right attention to your skin and hair, and of the use of proper beauty aids. curred during the past four years due to the fact that well populated cities have been in the paths of the hurricanes during these years. Many equally serious hurricanes have occurred, but have passed practically unnoticed because they struck only the mountain districts and the smaller islands of the seas. If the recent hurricane that caused so much devastation and death had passed but fifty miles west of Santo Domingo it would have been of no importance. Season Not Over A study of the dates of the serious hurricanes shows that summer is the worst hurricane season, and the Santo Domingo catastrophe may not be the last for this year as many have occurred as late as October. First symptoms of the season are evidenced in small gales in June that increase in July and by August and September they have developed to the velocity of the storm that wrecked Santo Domingo.

The fire, according to press dispatches, was caused by several lumps of gasoline in the line while the residents of the house had gone to a nearby residence to attend a funeral. The fire swept the building, and before it was noticed had spread to adjoining residences. The West Helena residents were unable to check the spreading blaze until after fifty homes had been wholly or partially damaged. Among the buildings destroyed by the fire was the second Baptist Church which is situated in that section. Reports show that the houses lost by the fire were owned largely by white landlords with Negro tenants.

MISTAKE, SAYS MAYOR Admits Wrong Man Slain, but Won't do Anything About It. DARIEN, Ga.—Bloodthirsty police, who have been conducting an avenging campaign against Negroes for the slaying of a police chief, killed the wrong man when they slew Willie Bryan, according to a statement issued by the mayor, Wednesday. Police had already murdered George Grant a few moments after he was placed in his cell, before they slew Bryan who was arrested on suspicion only. Mayor R. A. Young issued a statement that Bryan was perfectly innocent of any participation in the shooting affray in which Robert Freeman, white, Glynn County chief of police, met his death, but no effort will be made to reprimand or bring the guilty officers to trial. Chief Freeman was shot when two men returned his fire after he attempted to arrest them because they were seen near a bank. Before he died, Freeman stated that he had an idea they might be trying to rob the bank and opened fire. The alleged robbers escaped after fatally wounding the officer, and the police have since slain two innocent men in an effort to even things up. They are still rounding up suspects. Russia Escape ologize for Jim Crow the attackers of the Negro workers at Stalingrad were taught a lesson, while the far more serious crime of lynch murder in the United States always goes unpunished. According to Russian papers in Paris, which carried accounts of the affair for three weeks, Lewis and Brown, apologized humbly for their action, and placed the blame on the fact that they had been taught as children to hate Negroes. It was in consideration of L.i.s that the judges suspended the prison sentence.

Senator Baird is also quoted as declaring that DePriest is damaging his group and setting the race back fifty years. Making Them Think Officials of the Independent progressive Political Organizat d declare that the outsturth against Co- gressman DePriest on the past Braid and associates is caused by the outsturth against Co- gressman DePriest to think for themselves and fail no one who is not a genuine friend by acts and deeds.

Gordon, 158 North Willow Street, testified that he was certain that he and Mrs. Blair had seen Gilpin sign. Gilpin's sister, Mrs. Lela C. Brown, told her that she visited her brother just before his death. Brown stated that Gilpin moved as if to speak, but the Bynum woman placed a hand over his mouth and prevented speech. The name of another woman, referred to as Lillian Strange and described as the former wife of another actor, was also mentioned in connection with the name of Gilpin. Mrs. Gilpin of New York was not mentioned by herself, although she was mentioned in the testimony of Gilpin's sister as his lawful wife. The court ruled that the will presented for probate by Alma Bynum was valid. Alma Bynum, with whom Gilpin lived at Eldridge Park following his meteoric rise on the stage in "Emperor Jones" presented a will for probate which gave her an interest in the estate. The will designated that after the payment of a $23 bequest to a sister, Lillian Brown, the balance was to be shared between the common-law wife and a son, Paul, of Philadelphia. Mellian Lillian Wood Gilpin, 767 E 224th Street, New York, filed a caveat contending that she was the actor's legal wife before his friendship with the Bynum woman.

Atlantic City is a seaside city—long beach, long rows of booths along the beach. In nearly every booth there is some sort of device for gambling. Hordes of people during the summer season bet on the turns and stoms of these contravances. White-haired women try to palm off their daughters here to some enlightenment, but seahorses hold out for more dollars for themselves. Most unaccompanied young ladies are at hunting here. Some have a degree of moderate success. Others less fortunate. The consolation that there is another season coming.

BAKER This is the place where the slot machines operate on the basis of 500 to 1, with Barnum's constituents by the score on the short end. A happy, pleasure-seeking, carefree city. This is the place where the shop keepers and the hotel owners think that money was made for them only. The visitors seem to agree with them. V-Shaped Backs Old fogles with bald heads and stooped backs come here to show off their red hot mammals wearing gowns with V-shaped backs, and running through the alphabet in front. Reputations are lost, a lifetime of which is lost here in the twinkling of an eye. Some men bring their wives. Others look longingly at the gold diggers, then go back home and wish for their dough. Young Men Get Bald; Women Get Bold Young men get bald here and women get bald. Some mother of 40-odd years would have you believe that you have finished high school the year before last. It costs from 50 to 100 dollars to stay a week. All you get is a thrill and a headache the morning of the first day, with the young girls. Young girls try to be sophisticated, old ones act and talk like bables. Some of the old men have two or three former wives to their crdit, not to mention the one the four branches was held Thursday morning.

Fish and Nuts Visitors with jelly fish spines and money to burn find the antique shops, cabaret, and other amusement places alluring and irresistible. One is not long in being convinced that the ocean is not the only place to find lobsters, crabs, shrimps, and other varieties of the poor fish. Nuts in addition provide good food, and gold diggers. Buyers. Page the gold diggers. The way some of the nuts act, you just know that Darwin's theory is correct. The Smokers It is considered smart for young girls and old grandmothers to smoke in the lodging house sun foams and the hotels. It is considered a social distinction to indulge in smokes between sips of liquor. It is considered a honeyroom and have neither the honey nor the "moon," this is the place. You can bring either and buy the other here. A sign placed conspicuously on a dresser in a lodging house, reads: "Bottle opener will be found hanging in bathroom." It probably takes the place of the Bible formerly distributed by the Women's Christian Temperance Union. The old hotel rooms had flat ice water. Now, you can get firewater and flizz. It is a great, large hearted and loose city.

Primaries Over; State Conventions Next Announcement that Republican leaders in Baltimore are at work seeking to secure large registration of voters for the fall election follows hard on the primaries of last week in which three colored candidates were elected by the GOP organization, were nominated for the legislature and the number of colored ward leaders (committee) increased from two to four. To colored voters who saw their candidates for the legislature lose in the last election by thirty to one hundred votes, it is evident that the campaign for registration contains the only key to success. In this they are backed up by the Republican organization, headed by Mayor James who is a candidate, who is elected who thoroughly votes for the more colored voters on the registration books, the more Browning ballots in the boxes on election day. Announcement that Republican leaders in Baltimore are at work seeking to secure large registration of voters for the fall election follows hard on the primaries of last week in which three colored candidates backed by the G.O.P. organization, were nominated for the legislature and the number of colored leaders (committeemen) increased from two to four. To colored voters who saw their candidates for the legislature lose in the last election by thirty to one hundred votes, it is evident that the campaign for registration contains the only key to success. In this they are backed up by the Republican organization, headed by Mayor Broening who is a candidate for governor and who thoroughly understands that the more colored voters on the registration books, the more Broening ballots in the boxes on election day. Nor will the voters of the Fourth District hesitate to give the mayor a lift if the organization can be trusted to make good on its promise to vote for the colored candidates in the General Election as well as in the Primary. The Fourth District has had two apples out of this barrel, and in both cases the white Republicans have been elected and the colored Republican candidates left at home. Albis as well as explanations were forthcoming as to whose "fault" it was, but the fact remains that until now we have had no Negroes in the legislature. How long can we be played, the governor of this fall will determine. The Fourth District has had two apples out of this barrel, and in both cases the white Republican publicans have been elected and the colored Republican candidates left at home. Allibis as well as explanations were forthcoming as to whose "fault" it was, but the fact remains that until now we have had no Negroes in the legislature. How the election will happen will be played, the election of this fall will determine. Meantime current reports show that there is an increase in the registration of colored Democrats. This is as it should be. It is common sense to register with both parties, because, first, no matter who wins, all Negroes will not lose; second, because there will be no political recognition from Democrats until the colored voters register Democratic in such numbers that they can become a factor in the Democratic primary. The Browning-Ridgeline fight for the governor will be a campaign in which no one need sit on the sidelines—Ritchie, three times governor; Browning, defeated but once in his score of years of office holding. This is as it should be. It is common sense to register with both parties, because, first, no matter who wins, all Negroes will not lose; second, because there will be no political recognition from Democrats until the colored voters register Democratic in such numbers that they can become a factor in the Democratic primary. The Broening-Ritchie fight for the governorship of Maryland will be a campaign in which one need sit on the side, Ritchie, three times governor, winning, defeated but once in the years of office holding. The primaries have determined the candidates and the state conventions will soon fix the issues of the campaign. The simple duty of the citizen is to register and prepare to vote. Half Were Drunk A doubtful compliment to Baltimore, but absolutely no compliment to President Hoover, was the conduct of the Veterans of Foreign Wars who held their annual session here recently and had the chief executive to review their parade from a stand at the City Hall. Beside the President in the stand sat Governor Ritchie and Mayor Boering. Paraders streaming by carried beer stems and bottles in their hands; there was a cart of jugs and gin bottles. They hurried for, Governor Ritchie—"You are a weary man," and Mr Hoover referred to office. "Here's something for Mr Hoover to swallow," said one match referring to the wet demonstration. Beside the President in the stand sat Governor Ritchie and Mayor Broening. Paraders streaming by carried beer stains and bottles in their hands; there was a cart of jugs and gin bottles. They hurried for a car to retrieve all the bottles. Al Smith, whom Mr. Hoover defeated for office, "here's something for Mr. Hoover to swallow," said one marcher referring to the wet demonstration. No more undignified and disrespectful reception has been given to a President in peace times than that which Mr. Hoover received from the war veterans from all parts of the country. They had invited him to see them parade because they were veterans, and then proceeded to thumb their noses at him because of his views on prohibition. An AFRO reporter, viewing the parade, stated it as his opinion that nearly half of the war vets were drunk. Very likely this will explain their insult to the nation's chief. It also throws light on the report that several hundred delegates were ill, impatient with boobbling at a crab feast at Annalis following the war. It wasn't the crabs, but a combination of liquor, heat and parade. The Sun Stands Still Night baseball is popular now in many cities. The vogue for miniature golf has caused some managers to run afoul of the law which would compel them to close at 1 a.m. like cabarets and dance halls. Night football is promised for this fall, and, according to last week's AFRO, night numbers writing is the latest in Philadelphia where policy runners, harassed by police during the day, find it convenient to make their door to door campaign. Police are baffled because of the cloak which night offers and because the numbers barons send or man to do the writing and a second to do the collecting. The man with the money has no policy slips. The man with the policy slips has no money. Thus is the law confounded. The police have of this increase in night time activities means that the event will soon find it hard to go home evenings and stay there. Basketball, wrestling, boxing, tennis and swimming have joined dancing as evening sports. Until mid秋 'dust weather comes' there will be little chatting around the dining room; table at night, and that the sleeping before midnight. We have solved Joshua's difficulty and can command the sun to stand still every day. Four Hours At noon one day recently Santo Domingo closed its shops and shuttered its homes against a hurricane which had been reported bound towards the city for the two previous days. Four hours later, ninety per cent of the city was in ruins, 1,500 dead, 5,000 hurt and 30,000 homeless. The wind snapped trees and caved in dwellings. Only the strongest buildings, like the Palace and the Cathedral, withstood the blasts. A U.S. plane from the Haitian Marine Corps base secured the first reports of the storm's damage.

The marine officer reported in part: "There is no water fit to drink. The water works are demolished, the river is a sea, of mud and the dead are still uncounted. Floods have washed out the newly buried dead in the cemeteries and coffins float around in corks, unsecured, used as material for cremating as many as fifty bodies at a time. Even at a distance of ten miles . . . it was apparent that bodies were being burned. When we landed we could see wagons pass, with dead. The driver stopped and curse, and cry: "dead more dead!" Santo Domingo is a small country twice the size of Maryland, with a population of a million; half of whom are colored. The $30,000,000 damage done by the hurricane, might appear small to American readers, but to Santo Dominicus, a staggering catastrophe has befallen them. To repair this damage the entire government revenue for two years and a quarter will be required. Looked at another way, a other year work has ben wiped out twenty-eight millions in 1928. Americans may understand the distress of our West Indian neighbor when it is pointed out that if such a storm had struck the United States and destroyed it in the same proportion that Santo Domingo was destroyed, the losses would be placed at eight billion dollars. No wonder President Rafael Leonidas Trujillo (25 days in office) appealed to the United States for help. No wonder the Red Cross sent $50,000; Hatti, $30,000. Some of our West Indian neighbor should bring us closer together despite the barrier of her Spanish tongue. This distress may occasion need for American aid long after the immediate emergency has been passed. Colored Americans need to turn their faces more often towards their half-brothers in the Caribbean. Eventually should come mutual friendiness and helpfulness. Nothing should be permitted to delay the day. Santo Domingo is a small country twice the size of Maryland, with a population of a million, half of whom are colored.

Where is Your Child? The report of the Federal Bureau of Education as to the future educational careers of each 1,000 children who go to school for the first time was published recently by the Victory Life Insurance Company. The report in part declares: Out of one thousand children entering school— 1.000 will reach fifth grade 830 will reach sixth grade 710 will reach seventh grade 650 will reach eighth grade 243 will enter high school 246 will reach second year 181 will reach third year 150 will reach fourth year 139 will graduate from high school 72 will enter college 52 will become sophomores 52 will become juniors 23 will graduate from college. These figures give everybody something to think about. They make it plain why college boys wear fancy pants and college girls take courses in cigarette smoking and birth control. They cannot help feeling themselves to be diverse, but they stop school at the end of the eighth grade. Americans ought to be shocked to learn that, despite millions spent under public and private austerities for schools and colleges, the problem of education has not been solved. Compulsory education laws have not solved it. Nobody like the picture of 66 cent of boys and 44 cent of girls because they don't like school, (1) because they "can't get along," (3) because they have to go to work, (4) because the public does not provide a high school. This last "because" concerns many communities in the South where schools for Negroes are few, poor, and rarely beyond the elementary grades. These figures give everybody something to think about.

Powers, who earns $25 a week, sued the publishers for $25,000, which is as much money as he is likely to earn in the next twenty years. He claimed that the directory's mistake caused brother police to tease him. The $575 which the jury awarded is very probably the largest sum Powers will ever have at one time, and if an appeal is made to a higher court, he may not likely receive that. Powers would have a hard time convincing an unprejudiced court, that an asterisk is worth $75, or could cause a policeman that amount of damage.

To the Editor: Perhaps never before in the history of the world has a disfranchised, non-voting minority element so completely dominated political questions and issues. In the 15 million Nominees in politics, the presence of the Negro in politics is not confined to any particular section of the country. He seems more powerful however, in the part of the country where he is almost completely disfranchised than in the section where he is permitted to vote unmoistered In the Senatorial contests in Georgia, South Carolina and Louisiana now closing, the Negro, although physically absent from the political meetings and denied the privilege of participating in the white primaries, was the dominating force either the success or defeat of the contestants.

By no means a saint, but a Southerner of good parentage, here is a spectacle which to my mind, is alarming in growth and certainly Boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 10 can be seen on Baltimore's streets any night until and after midnight, roaming aimlessly or mischievously about, indulging in God knows what.

To the Editor: For the benefit of English speaking workers in Rochester, Ebenengrad paper has an English column of news. Russians Need No Prodding Where Justice and Fair Play to Negroes are Concerned. To the Editor: For the benefit of English speaking workers in Russia, a Stalingrad paper has an English column titled "Referring to this column, Eugene Lyons, who writes from Moscow for the Scripps-Howard newspapers, says: A Moscow item in this English column begins: "The report of the report about the American worker of the tractor factory that hurt badly one of their comrades—a Negro worker—has brought a mass indignation." The English may not be simon-pure, but the American worker receives no punishment enough. The attack on an American Negro, Roopert Roomson, by a number of white countrymen has caused extraordinary excitement among the more advanced portions of the working class everywhere in the Soviet Union. The report of the incident evoked a hurricane of resolutions from factories throughout the country and led to the arrest of one man named Lewin, who actually used his name the Negro. The AFRO has recorded the fact that Lewis has been punished by a two-year prison sentence, despite his explanations and apologies. The above shows that the Russian workers need no prodding from above to realize that race and religious prejudices have no place in a proletarian republic. The educational program of the Soviet leaders has not only eradicated the anti-Jewish pogroms that fouledged under the same seems also to fear and down the workers the true invariance and effect of all class prejudices. The above shows that the Russian workers need no prodding from above to realize that race matters. The Russian proletariat republic. The educational program of the Soviet leaders has not only eradicated the anti-Jewish pogroms that flourished under the czars, but it seems also to have shown the workers true inwardness and effect of an prejudice program. Young Negroes, anxious to shake themselves free from American prejudices and circumscriptions, might well look toward Russia. Dancers and jazz entertainers may be the sledding at those more or less skilled in any vocation, will find a welcome.

"Don't sit where the fish can see you," would be good advice to send to those supposedly astute chiefs from whipping things into shape for the next big Presidential campaign. Not that the appointment of Dr. Ambrose Calver, former dean of Fisk University, as specialist in Negro education in the Bureau of Education, is not something for Negroes to rejoice over the thinking Americans who will not think that they see through this appointment very clearly. Dr. Calver will do a good job, and Negro education will gain by the appointment, and all that kind of thing, but if this and a few bits more of such bait catches many political fish in the campaign, so at least won't be the kind of fish that have been caught in the past. And yet, who knows. There is just as good a chance for as against the argument that this may be the excuse, or one of them, why some of our leaders will accept the call to go out and gather them in. The leaders will accept the call known ull well that they can kick the Negro electorate around three and one half full years if they but pass out a few sugar plums of some kind to pacify them just before the next voting time. The fact is, for the most part they have known that they can begin writing down on the right hand side of the ledger the bulk of the Negro vote. They give out a few plums only to satisfy the more persistent of those who demand something. But this appointment, coming behind such open indifference to appeals for Negro participation in the blessings of the Grand Jury, is too openly the beginning of the big parade to pass unnoticed. The only redeeming thing about it is the high calibre of the appointée and the unusual opportunity the appointment gives for a far-reaching piece of work. But, suppose instead next time the O.P. Mrs. she farther back on the bank where the fish can't see them—so plainly. The Rev. J. W. Hurse, president-elect of the National Baptist Convention of America, who started in his ministry under an umbrella in a bad street in Kansas City, asks the convention to limit his term of office to four years and thereby give other younger ministers a chance also a chance, especially when the giving takes a chance from you, is not an overwhelmingly, common human trait. But men like Dr. Hurse, who have had to fight their way to opportunity, know what it means. What opportunity, know what it means. What it is fighting for opportunity which gives the real human joy. Every few seconds in America a boy is born who may become President of these United States, but of the hundreds born each day only one every four years can reach the goal. It is the possibility of getting there, which makes American youth, ambitions. Even Negro youth feel that there may be chance of a race taking through the barrier of race prejudice and being President. That is why adopting the suggestion of Dr. Hurce would stimulate young men in the ministry. It would give them a greater hope of being president. This would be a good thing for all organizations. Only monarchies allow their rulers to keep office for life, and monarchies—and other self-succeeding dynasties, whether in state or church—are fast going out of vogue. In the struggle of big cities for commercial civic supremacy, the Negro must be expected to play a big part. A white man interested in the growth of Baltimore told the writer this week that the buying power of the 120,000 Negroes in Baltimore is a considerable factor in the bank balance as contrasted with some other cities. All of which goes to show that for any city to compete in commerce, health and civic supremacy with other cities of equal populations, all the citizens must have a general average of opportunities. Just as 120,000 Negroes in Baltimore with restricted industrial opportunities and consequently restricted buying power will provide less money to flow through the streams of trade, just so will health and crime conditions be influenced. This kind of shortsightness has kept the hidebound South poor and less able to compete commercially with some other sections of the country. In the final analysis, as some white leaders are coming to see, it is best for white youth, white adults and all white interests that begin to equal chance with them to help meet their city or community supreme.

If they had got married she would have probably shot him crawling in the window late at night, but it wouldn't have been a mistake. Another man set fire to his rival's home when he thought his wife was hiding in the house. That is what you call burning love. When a house is on fire you can call out the fire department, but the only thing that matches the fires of love is marriage. A lot of women have been throwing lye in their sweethearts faces when they which prove the truth might hurt but only lye leaves a scar. People in Philadelphia play $30.00 a day trying to hit the "numbers" and they call that getting something for nothing. The only time you get something for nothing is when you are given six months for non-support. Policy syndicates give you heavy odds, but what people want most is a few more chances to get even. Some people have a gambling fever. The more they lose, the hotter they get. Betting on race horses is the only form of gambling in which you get a run for your money, but most of the time the nag you bet on doesn't run fast enough. It looks like every time we bet on a horse the jockey just goes along for the ride. When we put a ten shot on a jilly's nose she doesn't smell very well. Sitting in on a poker game is the best way to get cleaned without using soap. Life itself seems to be a great big skin game in which everybody else has their cards marked but you. When you reach success it was by using "good common sense" when the other fellow wins it was just "luck." The only honest-to-goodness lucky piece in this world is a piece of money.

At the same time there has been considerable drop in the price paid for native products, from $100 in 1910 to $50 on theHamas and the Yorubas, and the authorities thought it would work in this case also. The native members of the Legislature have held vigorous protest to the Under-Secretary of State in London to be followed by a delegation. They demand the removal of the legislature, and we believe with enforcing the new laws regarding taxation.

Following up what has been said concerning spelling, my advice to the novice, and to the experienced as well, is: KNOW before you release your copy or your proof. This will not only save you from the derisk that comes with copying, but will save your employer money. Corrections, wherever made, are costly and even if not made, errors reduce the prestige and the reliability, hence the sale value, of the publication in which they appear. Will you will of course reduce output; but if one hopes ever to acquire competency, nothing other than continual doubling and proving will bring improvement. Even so, few, if any, will ever reach the degree required, will make a dictionary needless. From where I sit, I observe men building a brick wall. Each man builds up four or five layers, as straight and as level as the plumb level in test what he has done. Here a brick is tapped in, there one is tapped out, and here and 'here one is tapped down, until the one is straight and true accounted for by the expert than others, make fewer tappings, but all make the tests and each one must tap a brick occasionally. None is expert enough to trust his eye alone. Are they wasting time, testing and tapping? Being standing near does seem to think so. Can a writer hope to do any better? No. Anyone who thinks is deceliving himself. "But," says one, "we haven't time for all that." That is probably to be true, and if it is, there will be not only defective product now, and the fixing of bad forms and habits, but there will be a failure to improve and it may be that a time will come when someone who has put forth the required skill will be the job as well will be preferred. Every bricklayer on that wall has served an apprenticeship—in a vocational school or elsewhere—before he is assigned a place on the wall. A degree in architecture then—he must learn the technique of that particular calling—and continually test himself as he works. The person who hopes to be other than a "ham" at any calling—written in plain text—must do likewise. To repeat—as you write, or correct proof, test yourself—test YOURSELF, mind you. Just in proportion as this is done regularly and reliably—the focus is building skill, mind and product will improve in quality and in quantity. In the long run, neither talent nor cleverness will stand the strain of slouchy technique. F. H. M. M. Making Negroes Restless The New Yorker, a brightly edited weekly, takes a mean dig this week at the Riga dispatches to the New York Times which charge that Russia is making Negroes restless throughout the world.

By KELLY MILLER The strife is on. The wets and drys are at grips to the death. Politicians of both parties have tried to dodge the issue, which, like Banquos ghost, will not down. As a modern instance it runs on all fours with the anti-slavery struggle eighty years ago. Manumannship tried its best to step-deep, step-delay the trouble some issue. It made compactes and compromises galore, but to no avail. It split existing parties and brought forth a new one on a platform with but one plank—slavery must be stroved. An inherent iniquity, sanctioned by the complacent confidence for ages, became a sharply focused moral question which demanded definite alignment. *Expediency Ever Exalted Above Principle.* the politician is still busy at his age-old game. He is ever prone to subordinate moral principle to political expediency. With him right-eousness is always found on the sides that promises the most votes. Republicans and Democrats are vying for votes. They would make a political issue out of the drought or sun-spots, if voters could be easily persuaded to follow their fortune by apportioning it to Providence. To the utter dismay of politicians on both sides of the fence, vobilation has already become the mercanture issue in the pending Congressional campaign. It has not formed a definite line of cleavage between the parties, but a line of disfuse within the household of both parties. The Republican party is the greater sufferer of this house divide against itself. The Primaries Show a Wetttish Trend. The primaries have played havoc with the hopes of the Grand Old Party, as the haven of the drys. In New Jersey the battle line was sharply drawn; the wets won. In Illinois the dry Republicans won only an electoral victory. In New York the battle between the two parties is one of relative witness. Congressman Cramton, the valiant champion of Howard University, went down to defeat before nine wet Republican co-partisan in Michigan. In Delaware, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania the Democrats are wet and the Republican dry. In Ohio, the lines run diagonally across both parties. The Republican West and the Democratic South both prots to be dry. But the aggressive wets are gaining headway in both sections. The hesistant, weak-kneed politician is forced to take sides. The Republican drys have a great advantage. They are in possession of the government on a dry declaration/ of principles. The people have all but unanimously endorsed prohibition as the national policy. They have written it in the Constitution, and charged the Republican party with the duty of enforcing it. G.O.P. Asleep at the Switch; Anti-Negro Train Sweeps By. But this is not merely a metta of legalism. The party in power is also charged with the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, but it falls asleep at the switch while the train of nullification goes by. Any measure is bound to fall unless the government charged with its enforcement has some moral enthusiasm for its principles. It will not do so, follo- thing the philosophy of Marianne Taylor, and ought to be obeyed. Effective enforcement rests upon the conviction that the law is RIGHT and must be obeyed. Unless the Republican party speedily gains the conviction, that prohibition is right and must be enforced. It will still remain alive with this single end in view. It takes no prophet to predict that unless the Republican party assumes a positive, emphatic attitude on prohibition as a moral issue, and not merely as a political expedition, a new spring expedition, a new country with few years just as the party which Mr. Hoover now demoralized and demolished Whigs and Democrats in the election of 1860. The approaching fall election will determine the fate of men and parties. The wets are aggressive as well as former day. But it is the gunpowder strength of a dying man. The moralists have always believed that right will ultimately triumph over wrong. But the hope of prohibition does not rest in the inherent goodness, but upon its practical policy. Abraham Lincoln, who by the way was one of the earliest advocate of prohibition, in words sublimely simple and simply sublime, has told us that this nation can not exist half slave and half free. It must 'all t' one or the other. The wider application of his logic is inescapable. This nation cannot exist half wei and half dry. Which shall it be?

The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly DIVA MITCHELL TO DIVORCE HUBBY NUMBER TWO former Mrs. Will Marion Cook Calls His Love "Diffuse." "HEARTS AFLAME" Hubby's New Song Betrays Love. CHICAGO, Ill. (ANP) — Slightly more than a year ago, Leslie Thompkins, the suave and handsome husband of the lovely diva, Abbie Mitchell, awoke from a dream of peace and entered into a moment of poetry, entitled "My Heart's Aflame." The divine and emotional Abbie was thoroughly complimented by the point of the lines and, forthwith, a mutual friend, William L. Dawson, the composer, dressed the words with music. The song became an instant hit Miss Mitchell's programs, and the acclaim of her husband, a dreamy sort of gentleman who dawdles with piano keys and studies military strategy with all the feeling of a Marshal Sny was tumultuous. The Thompson bud of poesy showers itself in the city, suddenly without previous warning, according to reliable information and the fact been from friends of the comedian Mr. Thompson at the time found himself in an environment which was inspiring for more than one reason, and his flaming heart burned brightly for the sake of more than one pair of eyes.

Mr. Thompson is said to regret very deeply the contemplated action on the part of his wife, expressing for her the deepest feeling and evidence of her wife should think that she had been unfaithful in any way. He is reported to have admitted that he is fond of the planist and hopes that she is fond of him, but, unfathi- tion to Abbie? Mais non! Miss Mitchell, the former wife of Will Marion Cook, and Mr. Thompson were married in New York slightly more than four years ago. Their lives are outsiders. Their known has been idyllic.

STRAIGHT HAIR NEW YORK. — More whites than Negroes commit suicide, according to a statement made by Louis L. Kissel, a top troopers Life Insurance Company. whose conclusions are as follows: "Suicide in the United States is almost altogether our own, eleven million Negroes there are annually only about five hundred cases of self-destruction. This fact is particularly significant because we know that the very highest homicide rates prevail. There is, therefore, apparently little ground for believing that suicide is a problem of the homicide and that both reflect a contempt for human life. Two different psychological mechanisms are apparently involved. Homicide generally involves the most of the passions and follows immediately the murderous impulse. Suicide, on the other hand, is usually the result of premeditation and introspection, the very conditions which make homicide impossible." Beauty Experts Elect Mrs. Young Head MEMPHIS, Tenn.

That the victims did not attack a white woman with intent to rage at all was also verified when it was learned that Mary Ball, the alleged victim, was bruised when she attempted to aid her white companion, Claude Deuter, who was shot with his own gun when he attempted to chase the woman out of the false attack story that resulted in the lynching of the two men. It was also disclosed that the Negro policemen of the force were sent home prematurely on the afternoon prior to the lynchings to make a clear field for the lynchers. over the country are assembled.

ROYAL THEATR INTERRACIAL LOVE IS Josephine Baker Replaces THEME OF PLAY Mistinguette in Gay Paree "Borderland," a Production Made in Switzerland, Headed by Actor. TRIES EXPERIMENT Gives Complete Entertainment at London Savoy. LONDON, Eng—From concert hall to theatre and hence to screen is the course that Paul Robeson has taken in recent months, and in the latter venture he also carries his brilliant young wife, Elisando, with him. The actor makes his bow to the cinema in a problem play made in Switzerland which is to be released shortly in England. The film is called "Borderline" and is an attempt to treat the Negro as a sensitive, intelligent being, and to show the effect that such a man would on white people in the neighborhood. The locale a small town, which purposely might have been anywhere in Europe, in which is Pete (Robeson) when Adah, a Negro woman, is playing the same hotel. Adah is played by Mrs. Robeson, who has never before appeared on the screen. The surrounding white people react to them in various ways until, in tragic circumstances, both Pete and Adah are compelled to leave "Borderline" has been made by K. MacPherson, or of "Close Up". He writes of the Cameran, script-writer and half the cast are English. The rest are all Americans. At Savoy Theatre Mr. Robeson was presented last week at the Savoy Theatre in drama and song. He appeared in the first act of "Emperor Jones," which gave him an excellent opportunity to display his rare histrionic ability. In the second part of the program he gave a series of performances of the entertainment were enthusiastically received, showing to what extent the actor has ingratiated himself in the hearts of London theatregoers. Robeson Plans U.S., Great Britian Tour LONDON. — Paul Robeson, who has won the theatrical laurels of Europe by his interpretation of "Jones" now appearing at the Savoy Theatre here, will begin a tour of the leading cities of Great Britain after which he will impress the audience.

THE FASHION WEEKLY ADELAIDE HALL, beautiful and talented, comes to Ford's Theatre next week, co-starring with Bill (Bojangles). Robinson in the musical play "Brown Buddies." PARIS—With the retirement of Mlle. Mistinguette, Parisian stage idol of "million dollar leg" fame, Josephine Baker, five years ago a practically unknown chorus girl, finds herself elevated to the top pedestal of Parisian night life. Par from the ensemble of Bob Russell's "Dixie Steppers," via the "Chocolate Dandies" and a musical company organized for a European tour, "Jo" has wrigled her way to the sensational spotlight of Parisian priority. Entered Folies in 1926 Starting out with a contract in the Polies Bergere in 1926, the only Negro in the production, Miss Baker, who first heard the weird moan of the "blues" in her hometown, St. Louis, has risen meteorically to the place where she is the toast of the boulevards. Nude Dancing is Hit Two things accounted for Josephine Baker's success—'er sinuous dancing and her habit of dancing almost in the nude. "Wicked nudity" is what the church called the little Harlem girl's dancing. And, in March, St. Paul's Church, adjoining the Johann Strauss Theater, where Miss Baker was creating her sensation, held services for three days, intended for charges on morality" allegedly committed by the performers. Jilted Lover is Suicide Then Franz Gabor, a young cabaret singer, sent a bullet crashing through his head and the tragedy was laid at the feet of Miss Baker, it being hinted that unrequited love was the motive for the suicide. In the Prague the crowds milked about the breaking windows and forcing her to climb to the top of her taxi before being allowed to go to hotel. After a ten-day engagement in Prague, Jo returned to Paris as in the afternoons, at the Folles Bergere at night, and in her own Montmartre cabaret in the early morning. 1867 the story was released that Miss Baker had married Count Pepito di Albertini, an Italian, on June 3, her twenty-first birthday. Subsequent investigation revealed that the identity of the "count" as real and conflicting statements by Miss Baker and the supposed count set the tongues of Paris and Rome wagging. Reported it, then, that a glamourist, a glause Abatine, a plasterer. Just a Publicity Stunt The entire ledin twesnyl enwfye The entire incident was later damis- sessed as a publicity stunt although she was not the only person to in- circles as "Countess." The bronzed dancer has kept her name in he newspapers regularly since her sojourn Europe. She would never return to the United States. She took the leading part in "The Siren of the Tropics," a French- made film, which exhibited here and which mediocre as to plot and photography. Original Film Daring Those who know, however, report that the original film was extremely daring in its treatment of sex relations and that it had to be cut, spilling its value for American patrons. Behind it was a man named Baker found herself on more than one occasion, subject to governmental ban. A JOSEPHINE BAKER At Budapest in 1928 she was denied permission by the national and municipal governments to appear on the stage there, the reason being given that, her performances were rique. Her favorite banana was one only of bananas, which she wore around her waist. At times, it is said, she discarded some of these. Sleeps Naked In her book of memoirs, compiled by Marcel Savage, a Frenchman, the dancer advises women who wish to add to their beauty, to sleep stinked and to use rain water for toilet water. On several excursions Monte Carlo Ballet has been her latest winsitions amounting to several hundred thousand francs. At one time, shortly after the expose of the fake Abatino marriage, was reported that Monte Carlo wed wedded the dancer-Klamm of Zamora. Just a few weeks ago, she caused a sensation at a musical show in Paris when a young panther which she took to the performance became frightened and broke loose. The animal was finally captured and subdued. Having Good Time With Mistinguette in retirement, "Jo' Baker has the entire run of Parisian night life. "Mme. la Com- tese-Pepito di Albertini" she supers- sells herself at times, but he留 heart she is still a little Harlem dancing, having an "awfully good time." Miss Baker is rehearsing at the Casino de Paris where she is in the place of Mistinguette. She is Baker, the leopard cub is receiving considerable publicity in the Parisian press.

DIXON YANKED OUT Dance Promoters Use Organized Labor as Issue. WASHINGTON, D.C. — Retaliatory war is threatened among the owners and operators of amusement places along U Street northwest as a result of a fight among the dance owners that has been going on since the opening a year ago of the ballroom in the New Masonic Temple at Tenth and U Street, northwest. The situation was aggravated Monday night when an injunction was served on Percy Glasseco and his band from Baltimore, Md., restraining them from filling an engagement at the Masonic Temple. The injunction was obtained by W. Lee lessee and the Colonade is owned and operated by the Lightman Theatre interests, under the direction of A. E. Lichtman. Theatre War As a consequence, John T. Risher and Daniel M. Gary, operating under the trade name of Gary and Risher, brokers, who are agents of the Lichtman interests, that if the Lichtman interests insisted upon competing with Negro businesses and thwarting their development, they would secure capital and entitle them to the theatre business which the Lichtman interests have a monopoly. Reduce Revenue The interest of Lightman and of Gary and Risher in the fight among the dance promoters lies in the matter of the rental of the Mason's dance troupe, the Mason's respective, they were not directly concerned in the injunction proceedings. But if the Lightman interests can tie up the big attractions of the Mason's sonic Temple, it will make the dance hall rack unprofitable to the promoters who operate there and will reduce the revenue that the Masons derive from his productions. The competing parties to the injunction were only Graves, Glascos and his band. Graves stated in his bill of complaint that great revenue is derived from his productions, that competition among the dance promoters is very keen and dance halls are continually vieing with one another to secure standing reputation and ability in order to attract patronage. Broke Contract Percy Glassec is the owner and leader of a band known as Percy Glassec's Plantation Orchestra. The chief attraction of this band, Graves sait that he has a favorite in Washington and whose band is known as one of the best South of New York City. Graves states that Glassec entered into a contract with him on January 20, last, for him to play at the Lincoln Connate from September 15, October 6, and October 20 and October 31. Graves says he made a deposit on each of these dates and advertised the band to play at the Lincoln Connate. On September 5, Glassec wrote Graves cancelling these dates. Alonzo Collins and Frank Jones, local dance promoters operating at the Masonic Temple, learned that Glassec had September 15, 15pm, at the attraction. Graves, through Attorneys William B. Wolf and Simon Fleishman, who The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly. represent the Lichtman interests, applied to the courts for an injunction. Wee Georgie Crooning in Harlem Vanities Justice Frederick L. Siddons signed a temporary restraining order Monday morning enjoining Glacose and his orchestra from playing in any public place or dance hall save at the Lincoln Colonnade between the hours of 9 p.m., September 15 and 2 a.m. September 16. The temporary injunction was served on Glacose in the Masonic Temple Monday night Glacose himself quit, but his orchestra continued to play for the Glascoe and the members of his orchestra are members of the Baltimore local of the American Federation of Musicians, an organization of American Federal Labor. The Lincoln Colonade, as well as the other Lichtman theatre interests, has been listed unfair to organization. The date that Glascoe cancelled the dates for his band's appearance there. The ban on the Lincoln Colonade, however, was lifted to two three weeks ago according to A. C. Petham, the president of the American Federation of Musicians, Fred Petham, who is active in local affairs of the International Alliance of Moving Picture Openings and that even if the musicians have lifted their ban, the Colonade is still on the unfair list because it was originally listed by his organization and inasmuch as is a working agreement between the musicians are bound to respect their ban. Organized labor troubles began when the musicians' local pulled Chick Webb's dance discs of dance prailion at Suburban Gardens, another Lightman enterprise which had been placed on the unoffair list. It was then claimed that the pavilion was owned by Webb. Webb is also a Baltimore boy. Dixon Called Off Labor Day night Graves retaliated against promoters who he thought responsible for Chick Webb's being ordered to subdue him. He had Ike Dixon's band, also of Baltimore, Md, pulled out of the Masonic Temple because they were billed to pay with a non-military cellphone. Graves himself discounted union affiliations as the cause of Glassec cancelling his dates. He says that every time he was called to the office, he imposed the Hardy Brothers, an imported orchestra that is stationed here permanently, he has sought to run out on his contract, because he would have charged that would file charges against Glassec with the musicians' union.

NEW YORK—Plans are being made to have King Vidor, noted film director, to direct "Potter's Field," a drama, with an all-colored cast, here, this fall. Plans were written by Paul Green, white, playwright of North Carolina, who recently was awarded the Pulitzer prize for the drama, "Abraham's Bosom." Vidor is being considered for the staging of the feature because of his "Halleujah" with colored performers, which is considered one of the greatest photopiles of the past ten years. Sydney Ross, the producer of the play, had planned to present it last season, but the opening success of "Pastures" caused a postemergent.

Arthur Bryson Brings New Sensation to Broadway Stage. Eddie, Master of Ceremonies; Edith Wilson Make It NEW YORK—The old saying that there is nothing new under the sun has been challenged time after time and now "Hot Rhythm," Will Morrissey's current sepal attraction at the Times Square Theatre, takes exception again to the old saw. Morrissey claims that there is something new in the way of dancing in the person of Arthur Bryson, featured dancer of the colored musical revue. Bryson has wowed audiences of Earl Carroll's "Vanities" and a half a dozen other Broadway shows, with his rhythmic dance not only, but it remained for the audience of "Hot Rhythm" to witness him introduce the latest wrinkle in tan dancing. Rector on Stairs Eddie Rector, the breezy master of ceremonies, who contributes a bang-on to his famous stairs dance, does about every thing humanly possible on a pair of stairs, but when he is in a room with Bryce as an who can still do something different. ADELAIDE AND BILL AT FORD'S NEXT WEEK ADELAIDE AND BILL AT FORD'S NEXT WEEK "Brown Buddies" Headed for Broadway, Stops Over Here. BRILLIANT CAST Shelton Brooks, Andrew Trible, John Mason, Assist Stars. "Brown Buddies," a new musical comedy, featuring Bill Robinson and Adelaide Hall, will be ushered in at Ford's September 22. Sixty artists will be seen in support of the two stars. There is a corking story about the mud flats of East St. Louis, where the early stages of America's participation in the World War, to do their bit for Uncle Sam in the muddy trenches of France. They are followed by the colored Y.M.C.A. entertainers from the old home town and a pretty romance is developed between the star of the "Y" unit, Adelaide Hall, and the top sorger, Bill Robinson. The piece abounds in comedy, delicacies and pleasing harmony interwoven with a convincing and appealing heart-interest. Greatest Tap Dancer Bill Robinson is generalist—considered the leading comedian. He has played over the Keith Circuit comedians and became the star of "Blackbirds of 1928," which had a successful New York run of more than a year. Following this he returned to vaudeville and during the past season has enlisted in the cast of the Palace Theatre, New York. Bill Robinson is the greatest tap dancer of all time, and was acclaimed so by the American Association of Dance Masters at a recent convention. Bill Robinson is famous and is frequently imitated. Adelaide Hall, co-star in this new musical comedy, appeared with him in "The Greatest Showman," featured with him in vaudeville, where he scored a tremendous hit. Shelton Brooks has written six numbers for the show and appears in the book Deacon. He will be readily recalled by many as the composer and lyricist of such well known hits of former teammates such as "Some One from the Surters' Ball" and "Some One of These Days." He has written special numbers for the late Nora Bayes, Clarice Vance, Elena Levy and Alison - yes, even for the great Al. AJnson. Brilliant Cast Alma Smith, who plays the soubrette role, is a former Florence Mills understudy, and succeeded her in *King Arthur*. Ada Brown, in the "Mammy" role, has been a vaudeville and smart New York and Chicago night show season. Her songs run the gamut from real "low down" to pathos. Other members of the cast include: Andrew Tricble, Thomas Moseley, George Nixon, James Lillard and Putney Dandridge and Tiny Alexander. The musical comedy opened in Atlanta last week with tremendous success. Oscar Polk Scoring in Philly Drama "Once in a Lifetime," a comedy about the talking pictures now playing at the Lyric Theatre in Philadelphia, has included in its cast of characters a young man by the name of Stephen Fetchit's rival. Mr. Polk has been on the stage about five years and has appeared in "Hokus Pokus," Crossroads, "Roman Gentleman," and "The Trial of Mary, Dugan." Several productions have secured his services for the talks, but Mr. Polk still stocks to the legitimate stage. Mr. Polk is the only Negro in this drama. WOR Calls Down Radio Announcer NEW YORK—Protest to radio station WOR, against discriminatory remarks made by a speaker from its studio, has brought assurance that WOR's remarks would not be permitted in the future, according to information sent to the N.A.A.C.P. by Dr. George Frazier of Palm Beach, and Dr. Miller reports that on the third of September, one Clifford Palmish broadcast an invitation to citizens of New York who were "twenty-one and white" who come to the station for instructions as to how to make money in their spare time. The reply of WOR, in part, read: "Station WOR has always had its friends and amenities. We have programs and it is not our wish to have a single person feel that we are prejudiced one way or the other. As the result of your comment, we will release a future continuum which might be used on this station." Great Show Coming Someday, Says Handy NEW YORK. — The Broadway stage has not yet received its really great Negro play, according to the New York Blues, writing in the New York World, last week. "It is a pity, he said to see Negro composers bad copies of white shows imitating their worst and whitest features. "There will be a real Negro play on Broadway, and the music received in Negro minds, the music written by Negro composers who have the blues and the spirituals and spontaneous jazz in their fingers, the feel of banjo strings in their fingers. "When this show comes along it will be as big a hit as Shumu's, and I am proud of it and damn and Williams and Walker, for, mark you, these productions were given in the days before the height in the toils of Broadway showmanship." Bryson then offers his Russian ballet, climbing and descending the Edith Wilson continues to stop the show cold at every performance with her face painted with red paint for her to render one number in the second act, "I'll Gt Even with You," but she usually skims over the guidance will let her go off. The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, September 20, 1930 NEW COLUMBIA THEATRE NEW YORK.-That perennisula on the face of Stepin Fetchit, movie comedian, is all the broader this week because he and the "Missus" are rejoicing over a blessed event. "Lllistn World," Stepin wired the AFRO, "want to announce the arrival of a son, born September 12, at six-thirty p.m. Mother and baby doing fine," Stepin wired the second performance in his first personal appearance when he is starred in "Bye, Bye, Ringer" at the Capitol Theatre. What matters whether rain or shine? What care you what the place or clime? Today was made for you. The cloud that lingers in the sky, The sun that's smiling from on high, Will bless you e'er the day goes by— Today was made for you. Stage Personalities. Bill Robinson, whose pearly white teeth have been displayed by a broad smile behind the footlights for the past thirty years, can be very stage, and takes life very seriously. Adelaide Hall, his partner, has an uncle in Brooklyn, N.Y., whose room is plastered with pictures of her, showing her every stage of her career on the stage. Shelton Brooks, who wrote the music for "Brown Buddies," which makes his bow at the end of each mentioned show in the leading roles, learned to play on an old melodion and never took a music lesson in his life, but tin pan alley is still humming some of his best tunes. Putney Dandridge, who means a平奏 in the same show, got his start by singing on street corners, got his quartette down in Old Virginity. Quintillar Miller and Marc Slater, who produced stock revues at the Regent for years before he became a stage flame, have not dissolved but are still going strong at the Globe in Cleveland. Twin stars through my sivery pane and the withering husk of a jellowing moon on the wane—then the dusk. C. J. W. In Case You Have Forgotten. When Ethel Barrymore appears as a sepal in "Scarlet Sister Mary" she will merely be duplicating the bit of stage business that won her Lenore O'Keech and her Belle. And Lenore O'Keech will in rehearsal sounds like an attempt to drift on the crest of the religious wave that carried "The Green Pastures" to success.

Avon Long Now Studying in Boston, Here on a Visit. MARK Oakland Fax, one of our younger musicians of pronounced ability, gave an excellent recital at Sharp Memorial M.E. Church recently. Mr. Fax was assisted by Mrs. Carrie M. Smith Caryll, contralto, and Mr. William S. Young, accompanist. Mr. Fax's program included the Pulse and Fuele in C Sharp Major by Johann Sebastian Bach, two waltzes and the Polonise in G Sharp Minor by F. Chopin; Gracovienne Fantastique by Ignaz Perewaksi; an intermezzo in octaves by Leschetkay and Syracuse University, during his high school days showed marked evidence of possessing distinct musical talent of a high order. His work probably shows that the youth is rapidly developing into an artist of promise. He has developed an unusually facile technique plays with assurance and an extremely lovely tone quality. Mr. Fax's playing of the number by Chopin revealed the youth's introspective powers of interest. With concord and work, he gives the audience indication of becoming a pianist of a high order. Mr. Fax has quite a bit of creative ability and was represented on program in the esteemed singers' Boy. In this song, the youthful artist has given the lyric a sympathetic setting that is well adapted to the voice and is clothed with an appropriate accompaniment. At the conclusion of the performance, he called and graciously responded with the well known military Polonais of F. Chopin. The vocal contributions by Mrs. Cargill were well received and Mr. Young gave sympathetic support to the singer. The group of enthusiastic music lovers attended the recital. Avon Long, who is remembered for Dusk rider before he was bitten by the stage bug. Evelyn Ellis, one of the best known dramatic stars, takes cold swims every day. Billie Andrews who dances, and plays lover's roles in Hill School girl; and Jack Carter, the heavy in "Forgy," once went to Morgan College for one week. An Idiot's Love Ballad I know not why the sun doth sine; I know not why I call you mine; I know not why the birds sing; In fact, I don't know anything. And They Tell Me— The reason the Williams and Walker musical hits cannot be revived as Broadway productions is because Will Marion Cook who billed the "chimes", refuses to be revived on account of sentiment, but the angels are offering plenty of dough. Billy Pierce, who has the last word in things terpsichorean along the Gay White Way, once was so hard up that he slept in Finley Wilson's old Eagle office on a desk and ate occasionally, but now he sends the wife and kiddies to U-rip first class. And "Snake Hips" Tucker's greatest ambition four years ago was to win a Charleston Contest from a champion dancer who never saw a Bobby Brown. DeLeon, the little brown-skinned night club favorite, was tutored by Alice Whitman and the Whitman maintain a house in Chicago which the trouppers can call home when business is slow. Out in the Windy City the rumor is that the merging of Nina Mae McKinney, the cinema star, and Gorilla Jones, the leather pusher, barely averted some not so pleasant gossip out Hollywood way. His artistic characterization of the Pled Piper and his excellent work in the opera "The Flying Dutchman"; both his realms of high school music achievement throughout the country; is in town for a few weeks. Mr. Long is now living in Boston where he is continuing his studies and dramatic, and interpretative dance. “Avon.” as he is affectionately called by hundreds of his friends, is an enthusiastic about his chosen art as of yore, and at the same time he is as modern as he is. He is likely that Mr. Long will be heard in recital before leaving Baltimore to continue his work in the Hub city. The boy has grown considerably physically an adult, and his sophistication has broadened him considerably in his appreciation of things artistic.

LEMUS NEW YORK—The unusual sight of white strikebreakers replacing Negro strikers in the motion picture theaters has done more than anything else to convince Harlem Negroes that joining the American Federation of Labor affords no panacea for the ills of all colored workers. Negro moving picture operators are out on strike. They are union members of the American Federation of Labor. What the strike is all about is not clear. What everybody who has passed along Seventh and Lenox Avenue may see, however, are Negro "union pickets" marching back to the office of the offending movie house—notably the Renaissance at Seventh Avenue, 138th Street, and the old Franklin on Lenox Avenue and 132nd Street. Picket Theatres Each picket is a "sandwich-man" bearing a sign that may be seen going and coming, which reads, "This theatre refuses to employ uniforms on patrons, but it is disfavored patrons from patronizing a "scab" movie-house. The writer talked with one of the pickets from whom it was gleaned that they were not meeting union requirements (whatever they may be), and, when the union ALEXANDRA She has tantalizing eyes, flowing locks, kissable lips, soft brown shoulders, and a pair of dancing feet that have tripped their way to fame in some of the fastest stepping shoes. What more do men want? refused to go on, put white strike-breakers in their places. Hence white "scabs," a role heretofore filled largely by black workers. The "pickling" of the Negro union operators appeared to be effective, at least at the Renaissance, where on last Friday night the attendance was far from full. It was believed that the strike will be terminated with the union men back at their posts. Miller and Bryant at Small's NEW YORK.

Carl stared. B. WILLIAM T. SMITH Well-Known Fiction Writer and Author of "THE DARK KNIGHT" INSTALLMENT THREE Through the murky darkness over the rough, twisting road the three men traveled all the night, which to Carl, at least, seemed endless. The truck, despair the expert guidance of Gene, determined to throw into the fearsome shadows of the swamp, whose black and ghostly foliage formed an arch over their heads so dense that for miles at a time the star-studded sky overhead could be obscured. Toward midnight Hotshot climbed into the back of the machine to take what he called a "cat nap." Left alone with Gene, Carl rode along silently for a time, lost in his own thoughts. Since the time they had started for the distant Barre plantation early that evening he had been wondering whether or not he was doing a foolish thing in going to the cotton farm to work. Perhaps it would turn out to be a peaonage plantation where the farmer would be able to escape. In case, he would be worse off than he had been in the refuge camp on the banks of the Mississippi. His Chicago Sweetheart All he wanted to do, he told himself, was to earn enough money to return to Chicago. When he got there everything would be all right again. He brightened at the thought that after he arrived to Anton Bigal, he hit him on the back by Anton Bigal, the baker friend, telling him of his plight. Bigal had been his father's friend, and he had shown extreme interest in Carl's progress in Chicago. Surely he would not refuse to help him at such a time as this. In the dark gloom Carl's thoughts turned to a subject of which he had refused to think of. He had died when his death had drawn him from Chicago—Antonie Gale. He had persistently put any thought of he slim, ivory-skinned girl from him, in now the remembrance of her time to him with a poignance which made his heart ache. He asked himself if he had been his mother, if he was his desolate plight that made his thoughts of her so tender. Antoinette—she represented part of what he was seeking. She was a part and parcel of what he hoped to find at the summit of his career—success. She was the daughter of one of the oldest and most wealthy families in Chicago, and she was among the most popular of the smart younger set for which she had little time. Sophisticated, lovely, very desirable, she was everything that she ever wanted—and the fact that she had shown that she cared for him served to lift some of the weight of his depression. Ambition Inspired He would go back to Chicago-plunge into the swift whirl of business and social life—and he would never stop until he had reached the very top. The thought struck him that at the present time he was plunging into something very far removed from what he had planned for himself—the work on the plantation, but he mentally waved that thought aside. This would be only an episode, an interlude, such as his experience in the camp had been. Nothing stop him. Nothing could halt his ambition, he told himself determined. He would be somebody— THE AFRO-AMERICAN would attain to the levels his mother who had known only the dreary hardness of farm life, had hoped for him. His thoughts were brought back to his surroundings by the sharp screech or the brakes as the truck came to an abrupt, lurching halt. "What's the matter, Gene?" he asked his companion. Cene was hunched over the steering wheel staring with bated breath into the darkness in front of them. "Hesh!" the youth paddled fearfully. Ahead of them, looming palsy in the bleach of the white shape took form. Carl stared. "What is it, Gene?" he whispered. "Lawdy! I don't know!" the latter replied tensely. "Maybe it's a haunt!" Carl wanted to reply that there was no reason as haunts, but there before his very eyes was the white ghostly shape. The "Ghostly" Animal Hotshot, awakened by their rough halt, poked his head into the cat of the machine. "Wha's matter?" he demanded sleepily. "Is we there yit?" Gene, still almost terror-stricken, shook him slightly. "Hesh yo' mourn," he whispered. "They's a hank right in de middle of de road a fraid to go on, an I caint back up." "Hant!" Hotshot breathed sibilantly. "Sbo'!" Gene affirmed. The luminous white presence moved slowly toward the machine. Gene bleated shrilly and scrambled into the back of the truck in haste. Carl sat petrified for an instant, then his hand closed on a wrench on the seat, and with a quick movement he picked it up and heaved it at the "hant." A bellow of cow-rage answered, and then he plumbed with chinchilla plump white and brown cow regarded them reproachfully. "Shuckins!" Hotshot ejaculated scorfully. "Taint nothin' but 'nole she-cow. I knew it twarrow not hantow!' he added. Then to Gene he called, "You kin come on out o' you hidin' place. You knew he clambered back up into the seat. When he saw the cow he sizeed a heavy iron bar and started to get down into the road. "What are you going to do? Carl "What are you going to do?" Carl asked him quickly. "Gonna whale th' livin' tar outa that ole cow, scarin' me like that," Gronkul said. "Carl selzed the bar. 'Let it alone,' he commanded. "What good will it do to hurt the poor thing?" Grumbling, Gene elimbed back into the machine and started the ancient motor. "That's one k' Munkel Barres' cows' he told them 'an' he done it." He needed a good whipup!" Carl a Bit Anxious "Then we must be near the plantation, eb?" Carl asked. "Sho. Talnt fur now," Gene assured him, a note of relief in his voice. "I bet I ain' never comin down this yere cord-roy road no mo in de dark!" "You ole Louisiana boys is sho scary," Hotshot muttered, soto voice. Gene let the machine, with vindictive roughness, "I notice you aint so brave, yo'self," he shot back. "Shucks! Teks mon' ole cow to spare me!" the little man stated scourfully. "Tm'm fm Texas, son. Fm'd black dan lans, if you please!" Carl stepped into the breach skillfully. "What kind of a place is this plantation, Gene?" he asked. "Hits a big ole place, the driver in front of me, and engages the subject." T reckon hirsut ebort sebum huntered acres. Cose all of it ain't in cotton. Lots of it is bottom lan and woods and swam." "What kind of a man is the Colon- el?" Carl persisted. Gene's voice grew warm with admiration, "Oh, de Kunnell! Now he's what I calls she nuff white folks! He's a great big ole white haired man, and he treats his hans's fine all de time, and he good pay heir for his wuk, and he don' low nobody on de place but colored folks." "Why is that?" Carl inquired interestedly. "Quality white folks don' never like low-grade people," Hotshot insisted. Who's follin' dis yere?" Gene demanded, with a return of his truculence. "Seus me," Hotshot murmured meekly. An Interesting Story "Well, it's like dis," Gene continued, placated by the little man's mild apology, "When de Kunnel was a striplin he up an' marry de gritties gal in de county. De plantation was a sho' nuff place den, wi all de time guests, and pahtihes, and huntin' an such-like, and he saws' the sore of de Kunnel's nappy die, an' she tell me dat de Kunnel's have a baby.

An' he an' nevah marry again' cause he say like dis: "When a man's done drunk himself some bourbon liken' he don' tech the bourbon." Gene hailed dramatically, as though demanding approbation of the Colonel's meritorious stand. "I knew a case down in Texas—" Hotshot began, when Gene cut him off. "I ain' finish tellin' this ylt," he interrupted brusquely. "My mistake," Hotshot murmured nudging Carl, slyly. "Go on, Gene." Carl bade. "Well, 'thr' erubt all." Gene con- fessed, "cep'n de ole Kunnel's place is stuck way back off de main e place." Gene said, "I roun roun much—dat is, white folks — de case知yms dein yaint 'welcome.' "How many workers does he have?" Carl asked. Carl Is Nervous Gene took one hand from the wheel and the head as he pondered the question. "Hey, chuffer!" Hotshot cried in mock alarm. "You put that other han' back wha' it belongs. We ain't wantin' t run off'n' th' swamp and get et up by crockydiles!" "Shet yo' big mount, Pewee," Gene reprimanded. "I always tellin' me what t' do? An sides, they ain't crockydilvns nowhar nigh here." Properly squelched, Hotshot grinned to himself and said no more. Gene now answered Carl's question. "I reckon dey's 'bout—oh, enyways sixty hans' at de place right th' way." Belonging with us th' year rount. They just comes in t' make de crop, he explained. Through the heavy tops of the dense foliage a dim, grey light spread, touching the trees and heavy underrust that blanketed the rough road with unearthly shadowings. A few small birds cried sleepily, and far th' throated rooster crowed importantly. "We're almost home," Gene told them. "Ole Creola, what cooks fufs de Kunnel! give us n'ss brekts; den weakes de Kunnel does he need some new hans. But," he added darkly, "I spects he ain't needin' no sawed-off, hammered-down, knee-high to a duck mens." "I ain't nervous," Hotshot countered. "Ef th' Kunnel knows a fustrate han' when he sees one, he ain't gwine t' pass me by." The Big House Just as the first red rays of the sun glowed in the East, Gene turned the heavy truck off the corduroy road on to one smooth, almost white gravel. Flanking the new road were giant black oak trees whose trunks they had just left, seemed to have an air of well being and breeding. The smooth driveway twisted and turned picturesque through the oak-grove, finally rounding a bend which disclosed Barre Manor to Carl's interested eyes. On a smooth rise of expansive, well-tended lawn, and surrounding it were tall stately cypress, pine, pean, and live oak trees. The building was a Colonial structure of true pre-slavery days, with many tall white pillars running around its new lawn, bushes new and rich profusion about it, and deep green creepers lent a touch of color to the otherwise unpleasant whiteness of the house. As they passed the big house Gene throttled his motor so that they made a minimum of noise. The drive led unhurriedly around to the rear of the mansion, where there were many outhouses, and barns, all scrupulously white-washed. Here were horses, cows and chickens, all moving around with the sleepy languorous of beasts and birds in early morning. The whole place exhaled an air of the well kept farm, and as the thin mists lifted, men moved slowly and laughingly through the room, calling jokes to one another and careering the animals for the day's labor. Gene stopped the machine by what he told them was the store house, then Carl and Hotshot lent willing arms to the unloader, bulky packer which the truck held, and was completed Gene led them to the Kitchen, where the odor Dr. Bunker's Hand-writing Analysis Dr. Bunker's Hand-writing Analysis AFRO FASHIONS BY AUNT DILSEY By AUNT DILSEY 6942 6931 6944 other abductes 1800 DRESS.

You handwriting does not show anything about your aunt, or any money that she may have Handwriting is not fortune telling, but is a science that simply holds a mirror up in front of you and lets you see yourself, as you really are, all. the possibilities for success that you have of boiling coffee and frying bacon invested the place with an immediate charm. They Meet Creola Inside, Gene introduced them to Creola, a vast dark-brown woman of uncertain years, who grinned cordially and invited them to "set down, eat, drink, and bacon, golden-eyed eggs, huge light biscuits, and delicious coffee, of which the three partk reavenously, "Kunnel up yit?" Gene asked her, when they had done. "Creola told them, "You want to see him?" "Aw, I'll see 'im when he comes out t' de barn, I got these yere boys whut wants a job." "If they feeds like this I sho' aim to have me a pumant job here," Hotshot said in a stage whisper loud enough for the big cook to hear. The woman glanced at him coquettishly. "Go on wid you, she cried. 'Arl if you wuks in de faal den you don' gue his steak as dese." Hotshot I gets myself a job here whar I eats this hardacious food." Hotshot declared unperturbed. Shortly after the three had left the house and were standing by the barn Colonel Barre came out to them. "Where's those two hands you brought, Gene?" he asked as he came up. Then he saw Carl and his friend. "Oh! I see." His keen old blue eyes sweep over the newcomers swiftly. "you boys拍点 pretenty' he inquired with a famille. "I pick my fo' hundred any ole day, Gapn, suh." Hotshot told him, bowing a little. The Colonel's eye shifted to Carl. "I am afraid I'm not such a good picker yet, sir." Carl told him, "but I used to pick cotton when I was a kid." He stood straight and unmoving before his prospective employer. "From the Nawth, eh?" the man asked him. "Yes, sir." "What you been doing up there?" "What school, mostly." "What are you doing down here?" Carl explained about the loss of his parents, omitting the details of his adventure in the refugee camp. "Hm. Calculate you can finger right smart, eh?" "Yes, sir." "Know anything 'bout weighing cotton?" "Yes, sir." "All right!" the Colonel said briskly. "Boy I had weighed my cotton took sick and had to go home to his maw. You weigh cotton today, and you took it to the job. Pay you four dollars a day if you don't make any mistakes." As though the matter were settled beyond question, the tall, vigorous old man, his white mane gleaming in the early sun, turned away and began giving orders to a teamster. Hotshot indulged in a shuffle. Then he took a cool goll. In the ribs, "Boy you done fill in luck!" he cried. "No pickin' for you!" "Yes, you sho' done fell in a mess o' luck." Gene confirmed. "Dat's de' job in de' feel." De Kunnel mus' a liked you', he added a little enviously. "Don' let that worry you none." Hotshot warned airily. "us wait till the Kunnel sees you." So De Kunnel himself established at the Barre plantation, and not a peonage farm, as he had feared. But he was to find that there was a stronger spell than peonage, which threatened to enchain him.

It does not foretell your future and for this reason, your question cannot be answered. Dear Sir: I am sending you the writing of a sweetheart of mine. I would like to know whether we are suited for one another, and if not, why not. Thanks. Mr. Georgia. Answer. Your writing shows a pronounced strain of similarity in character, without so much similarity that there will be serious conflict. In fact, it is reasonably certain that you can make a success as you now plan in building your home together. The young lady shows jur' a tiny度 of temper but it is so sufficiently strong that she is unpleasant and the bit of stubbornness that you have can be easily overcome. Dear Sir: Will you tell me what difference will take place in my hand-writing. If I should change some of my handwriting, for instance, if I have a very bad temper and overcome it, how will it effect my writing. J. C. L. Michigan. Answer. In the earlier instance you mention, you writing should still show a sharp temper, but there would be a sign of self control that would indicate that you had undertaken to master that particular characteristic. On the other hand, if you make any very radical change in your nature, as a result of some peculiar influence on the outside, you will show that change in your handwriting within a very shot time. Let us suppose, for instance, that you have, but you suffered some tremendous shock which lessened your courage, and makes you hesitate before reaching out to do anything new. When this occurs it will show almost immediately in your handwriting, indicating that the aggressiveness has existed, but for some reason it has been curbed. Such changes continue throughout the entire range of human emotions, and will affect your writing as they enter your life. You may have a personal report made of your handwriting if you will write a page, using pen and ink. Sign your name and send letter. Dr M. N. N.

Now would make a young man of twenty-eight most happy? What I mean is this: Do you think a very young girl am interested in would be as good a wife as a more settled woman near my own age (I have such a one that I am also consider- ing)? SENIOR. Of course, it really depends upon the woman. Some women at eighteen would be bawls wives than others at twenty-eight. As a rule though, an older woman will make a more understanding companion.

By DONN BRYAN Henry worked at the great Marquette Cement plant, and earned a reputation for himself as being trustworthy. He had begun there when still in his teens. However, the reason he remained in his position at the plant for so long continued to be the reason his veins burned only one lamp-ambition. But when love crept surreptitiously into his life, another flame was started which was to burn more brilliantly than that of his ambition—to always be a man of his word. Henry lived alone with his mother when she old and near death. He was faithful to her, knew she had struggled, sacrificed and fought a noble battle to keep him by her side, and he was resolved to repay her for what she had done. A stalwart boy who sometimes fought for money at the smokers staged in his home town, well-muscled, tall and as agile as a dog, and was always adept adversary, and could have become a skillful boxer if he had chosen to follow this profession. However, he was loyal to his employers at the plant, staying with his job which, though harder and more difficult, was, he considered, more honorable. But it was at his last fight when he was meeting Big Bill Hammond, of the adjoining county, a heavyweight who was rapidly acquiring recognition—that he met Opal Ranshaw, one of the famous Ranshaw sisters, who had attracted so much attention because of their hatred of men. Henry was having a frantic time in the fourth round, having fought an even bout up to this, when he heard a feminine voice, rich with music, ring out above the dint and din of the crown. And Henry! You're my man! You're my panther man! Whip him!" Henry heard. He couldn't help but hear; and it filled him with a sudden mad impulse to overcome his opponent. He staged a comeback in the last thirty seconds of the fourth round. Just when it began to apprise him of the threat, theammond's platin-rod blows, the musical voice, sounding like a tinkling bell, worked a miracle. He drove his adversary to the ropes, and at the sound of the gong ending the round, had the latter hanging on. The crowd roared, nearly rending roof with their cheers. It was a hard pill to swallow to see their fear, and theammond's Northcamp outcashed by the fighter from the rival county. Then, when the girl who hated men sent up her card with a message hurriedly scribbled on the back of it, saying, "You're the only man I ever saw I really wanted," Henry Northcamp felt exultant. He was confident that he could whip an entire army for a woman like that. He was confident that he smiled upon the countenance of another man, and certainly she was worth winning. The bell which opened round five found him in the middle of the ring waiting for his somewhat larger adversary. A hard right uppercourt caught Hammond on his rather emphatic chin, upsetting his championship aspirations. He went down like a log, rolled over on his face, struggled to lift his hand as rigid as a corpse. Henry's hand was held up as a signal of victory. Did this raw-boned, bronze fighting gentleman contrive to meet the woman who had lighted the second lamp in his soul? Well, you should have seen him. But it wasn't difficult because she made it easy for him. When a woman wants a man—especially a woman who has never wanted a man before—she plays her hand cleverly to win him, and such was the case with Opal Ranshaw, who was walking at the foot of the narrow stair for Henry to come down. He stood face to face with her, clutching her card in his hand. Now that he was in her presence, this man who could lift more than two pounds, he could figure like a wildcat, found words impossible. Leave it to the woman, though, to manage a situation like this. "Td like to have an ice cream soda," she preferred. We can sit down and talk. And we nodded, finding that his collar was growing slightly uncomfortable and his Adams apple feeling like an elevator that needed olling. So they made their way through the almost obliterating corn from the fashionable colored confectionery. At a table Opal resumed where she had left off. "See all those peo- shape her as you wish. But to do that both you and the young lady would have to be of superior stuff. If you are just an ordinary man and you are just ordinary women, then I think the older one would be the safer bet. But let me add that I do not think people should marry unless they possess for each other a very strong attraction. You are approaching marriage something like you would the business of hiring a good housekeeper for success of a marriage depends upon the sanity of the participants but the beginning of wedlock should have a touch of what is called "Madness"; a desire to sacrifice yourself, if need be, upon the altar of love; a fine impulse to give, not to take away. So why not wait until you find the lady who will sit you to gallanty and holiness? There is such a woman—if you will, but look for her. It is not age but mutual affinity that really counts in the business of wedlock. 1939 The sheer silken garments which clung to the exotic, beautiful young bodies were torn to shreds. There was no mercy, no evidence of weakening and the fight went on and on. please stand at us. Do you know why? Permit me to answer my own question. It is because they have never seen me with a man before. You are the first. You should feel proud, that Henry manage to say, "that he meant exactly what he disclosed. He was about the proudest man in town. Having many stories involving the Ranshaw sisters, who declared there wasn't a man good enough for them, he felt that he had been lucky in forming the acquaintance of Opal. They had soon reached familiar ground; and when they parted at the enormous stone-columned entrance to the grounds of Graystone, the magnificent countenance, that he employed, several things had been made clear, things that had previously transcended the understanding of Henry Northcamp. having patched up their differences —sat side by side in wheel chairs on the front porch of their parent's home. The vermilion sun swept the sides, making flamant the sky-line. Purple flowers of evening fell, gradually turning to saffron; and the road, like a yellow ribbon, faded like a pastoral drawing erased. Night birds began to call and mate. Darkness descended . . . And then—the doctor removed the bandages. . . For three weeks Henry Northcamp had been dividing his attention between the sisters, knowing they both loved him. However, he promised to marry neither, nor did he encourage them. He wanted to see them with the bandages of and had him present that night, of course, as eager as the girls were. Then, what happened when the bandages were removed? Opal disclosed vital and pulsating facts about herself. She liked hemen, big, strong, fearless men who could take the hard blows of life without flinching and strike back at adversity. She couldn't tolerate weakness. She couldn't furnish a Henry Northcamp fell in love with her. She simply and diplomatically swept him off his feet, going to his head, after passing in through the gates of his heart. If there ever was a cast of love at first sight, this was one. And when he called poo her in her bedroom furnished apartment overlooking the Mississippi River, one night in June, and met her sister, Florence, he found himself in an unfortunate predicament. These two man-haters were slaves of his least desires. He had, unwittingly, without putting forward a single effort, evoked the love of both women. And because of his personality, even in the face of the stern realization that he loved Opal, he responded to the caresses of Florence. In the glitter of the elegant apartment with the elaborate appointments carried out in the most delicate tints and demonstrations of artistry taste, big rugger tins, big plant plant of plamp, although he had a part of his weekly salary was going to keep Opal in such luxury. Opal, who had gone out into the kitchen to prepare teed drinks, returned to find her amazement and indignation, the first and only man she had ever loved, in a reclining a comfortable divan with her sister! Bang! !! The dream castle erected upon a sliken lined cloud made a rift in it and dropped through, striking the ground with a terrific crash. Opal pounced upon her sister and there began, between those two manhating women a fight for love. . . A fight to the finish. Henry, being the lighter, stood off and encouraged the battling amazons, who were also lovers of clean sports, in their efforts. . . The sisters were almost of the same size and build, and the advantage for a while, did not seem to be on either side. The sheer silken garments which clung to the exotic beautiful young bodies, were torn to shreds. Even the shimmering white neglege was ruined; and they soon stood unvelled, like sculptured figures loaded with no mercy no evidence of weakening, and the fight went on and on, to end soon in a whirlwind finish. There was one feature about this physical combat for love, which was, to say the least, extraordinary. Even though thoroughly incensed, the girls made no effort to take advantage of the innumerable opportunities which presented themselves to cause serious injury. But sometimes those things are done unintentionally. The fighting amazons eventually escaped with the wall, wall spinning down this, and fell, kicking and climbing, knocking over the cabinet; and there the deep rug, they finished the battle for love. Florence won. She succeeded in choking Opal helpless, but not until they had permanently scarred each other's faces. They swaled weeks in bandages, their faces for the most part hidden, the "man-hating" sisters — having patched up their differences —sat side by side in wheel chairs on the front porch of their parent's home. The vermilion sun swept the skies, making bamboyant the sky-line. Purple shadows of evening fell, gradually turning to saffron; and the road, like a yellow ribbon, faded like a pastoral drawing erased. Night birds began to call and mate. Darkness descended . . . And then—the doctor removed the bandages. For weeks Henry sweets Henry Northcamp had been distressing his attention between the sisters, knowing they both loved him. However, he promised to marry neither, nor did he encourage them. He wanted to see them with the bandages off. And he was present that night, of course, as eager as the girls were. Then, what happened when the bandages were removed? Henry turned round and strode away, which he hid in the apartment which was denoted his profound disappointment. The uncommon attractiveness of the Ranshaw sisters had been utterly demolished. Jagged scars bit into the softness of the velvet skin, scars never to be obliterated, scars to follow them to their graves, scars to cause men to shrug and turn away as Henry Northcamp camped near the dead, had been, extremely cruel to these women who had avoided men until Henry came along. The air was like the perfumed breath of an Egyptian princess, Rose, twining round the pillars of the rustic porch seemed to how their beautiful heads in pity. The chirping of birds, and their carols, tendered an orchestral accompaniment to the course being histrionically presented. Henry, heavy in spirit, walked down the gravel path lined on either side with flowers that were bathing in the orange moonlight. Unbroken stillness struggled in the wake of Henry's departure. He had left those girls, never to go back and they, knowing it, faced this stern realization while gaited to keep their burning hearts from breaking. Through their own physical efforts had ruined their chance to be happy. . . And those girls walked out sedately where the gigantic steel toll bridge spans the silvery surface of the Mississippi River, and locking themselves in their final embrace, leaped to their doom. . .

Then there were little waves, and eddies came and died out and the water was still This Jazz-Mad Modern Generation BY BETTY BARCLAY Much is being said today about the waywardness of children—little girls and boys, as well as the "teen-age" boys who have always been more or less wayward. Parents grumble and growl at conditions and seem to delight in placing every bit of blame upon the younger generation How about taking the blame yourself?

Be firm. If a man of the man of the man of the boy or girl of ten, what chance will a man and woman of forty have to govern children of twenty? Our grandparents governed our parents. Our parents governed us. If we cannot govern our children, it is OUR generation that has gone awry and not the generation now growing up. The more you think of this, the more you will be convinced that it is better to whip that we often, feel like passing out to young George or Bessie.

HearMeTalkin'toYa By BILL DYKES THE recent scrap between Harry Smith and Gorilla Jones Iof the colored middleweight championship means no more than personal satisfaction in a limited field to the men who does not amount to much, says Ed Hughes, while, in an article in a recent issue of the Brooklyn Eagle in which he describes the rocky road the Negro fighters must travel. Mr. Hughes says: "A colored champion really only achieves fame winning the white man's title. Long before Jack Johnson whipped Tommy Burns, Lil Artha was the accredited colored heavyweight champion of the world. The information didn't amount to much, though a commercial sense in spite of the fact there were some good commercial heavies at the time. "A colored champion really of white man's title. Long before Burns, 'Lil Artha' was the acerate plan of the world." The distinction, in a commercial sense in pretty good colored heavies at the Johnson didn't care a great "wanted that white man's title" to indicate that a colored title Did that is in the artistic sense. A colored title bouts frequently haven't become fully seasoned, the dark-knuckled scrappers who boost white fighters reputations to "The explanation is simple. signs of real fighting ability he brethren unless there is a willing scraper decides to battle 'on to the top, he soon discovers bush the white boys as a 'bad guy', are work. "The result is he fights far and so his area growth is stunt fighters with ability 'see the lighthairless gifted white men. She knockouts. Better to do that I go to work. "The fisticic way of the gifted at best, as I have noted. Of course but only after discouraging up years before he could get his chase and later the 'honor' of meeting him, and biased critics called him he had thumped the daylighters. "Joe Gans—the lightweight title—tough shedding. After knocking a title found opponents so soft wettweights in order to keep me. "The result was that Nelson the honor and put off meeting Gans so good that he found it necessary to get any work at all. "Two colored scrappers have the late Tiger Flowers in the mid Al Brown, among the bantams. In his division, too. "But it's a hard game at best for the black man than the white. "Perhaps that's why they ho! It's a sort of consolation prize for held from the black race." Cuban Notables Welcome Kid O Governor of Havana Province Pays Homage to Battler w pretty good coloured leaves. "Johnson didn't care a great deal about it, explaining that he 'wanted that white man's title.' Later he got it, too, which seemed to indicate that a coloured title did carry some weight, after all. That is in the artificial sense. As often as it doesn't, though. Colored tint hues frequently feature scrappers of talent that haven't been fully seasoned. This is the case with respect to the dark-skinned scrappers who are too proud of their ability to write fighters' reputations by taking 'fops.' "the explanation is simple. As soon as a black fighter shows signs of real fighting ability he is promptly shunned by his white brethren unless there is a willingness to do business, the scraper decides to battle 'on the level,' with chance at getting to the top, he soon discover business is bad. He is blacklisted by the white boys as a 'bad guy,' and thus turns to his own race for work. The result is he fights far less frequently than white boxers, and so his arsenic growth is stunted. It is a fact that most black fighters with ability 'see the light' and take their orders how to handle less gifted white men. Some of them accept beatings, even knockouts. Better to do that than to hang around idle—or to do work. 60 The "fist way of the gifted colored scraper is a rocky road at best, as I have noted. Of course, some have reached the top, but only after discouraging ups and downs. Johnson labored years before he could get his chance at Tommy's title, and later the "honor" of meeting Jim "Jelly" and what not, even after him, the darkest of the dawnlights out of Burns and won the title. he "Joe Gans—the greatest fighter of his weight that ever lived—did the lightweight title—twice, in a way, but he always had tough sliding. After knocking out Frank Erne in a round for the title, Gans found opponents so scarce that he was forced to tackle welterweights in order to keep moving. "The result was that Nelson came long, established a claim to the honor and put off meeting Gans as long as he could. Gans was so good that he found it necessary to engage in many crooked bouts that would all work." "Two colored scrappers have reached the top in recent years— the late Tiger Flowers in the middleweight realm and the present Al Brown, among the bantams. Kid Chocolate is near the pinnacle of division. too." in the game. "But it's a hard game at best, and at its best much harder for the black man than the white. "Perhaps that's why they hold 'colored championship' battles. It's a sort of consolation prize for the other that is so often withheld."

By WILLIAM PICKENS for (ANP) Chocolate had just returned a few HAVANA. — The capital city of the little mulatto island republic which seeks to bar American Negroes from its shores, paused long enough to banquet "Keed" Chocolate, who has just returned to his native home following his defeat at the hands of Jack (Kid) Berg, after piling up scores of knockouts in the lightweight division. The narrow street outside the athletic club which was giving the banquet in honor of "The Kid" was packed with people, held back by several policemen, when the boxer's Packard, silver armored, drove up, were already inside, ready for the shots. Everybody had preceded Chocolate to the place. And who was there waiting for him? The Governor of the Province of Havana, the speaker of the house of representatives, many other prominent politicians and people of all colors. The President of Cuba would have been there, but he had just shot at a day or two before, his chauffeur had been hit, and he was a little shy of the public at that time.

And all this, although "The Kid" had been a loser to Berg in the States, regards this simply a people, a way they never will be convinced that Chocolate was whipped fairly. Can you imagine Harry Wills returning, gay from England, and being the mayor and populace of New York, with Governor Roosevelt later appearing at banquet (not "appearing" but coming early to wait with the rest)? Then to stay until it is all over, and make speeches and brag about Wills means to the United States? Put Cuba on Map Chocolate has been Cuba's biggest ad recently, and they are now planning to send him to Europe. He would be the rage there. His first work is having listened to his opera, or something elevating, when he has, seen Chocolate perform. The banquet crowd showed clearly that, without American influence, there would be nothing in Cuba like a color line, not ever. After thirty-two years of strenuous American instruction, these people can still meet together and be natural. The whites present gave no airs of knowledge that they were "among colored folks." Nobody sought "his kind." The Negroes gave no hint of an inferiority complex; "that now we MONEY D YOU MONEY Your Automobile Payments Small Save You Of All Worry.

The team's back, and much hope is centered in the new material. The Tornado has prospects of a glorious season. VIRGINIA LOOKS TO HER VETS FOR SUCCESS Seven Letter Men Lost at State College. Prospects Bright for Season PETERSBURG. — Although seven first-string men of the '29 championship team on the road, winning this year from the football lineup, the coaches are looking forward to a strong aggregation. The gaps made by the loss of Lee, Harrison, Robinson, Powell, Pegram, Royall, and Chambers will be hard to miss. With Bounds, Dahney, Williams, Cropp will serve to offset the losses. Oliver, State's captain-elect, is a big, powerful lineman, and with Barbin, Clapp Cooper, Hall, Veals, all veteran linemen, make a good nucleus around which to build a powerful forward team. Starting with Johnson C. Smith on October 4, the champs will face a nine-game schedule of several of the best teams in the east. The Homecoming game November 1, is with Howard, who will be for the home grounds, Hampton, October 18; West Virginia, November 15, and the A. & T. on Thanksgiving. Ala.

There was no racial inhibitions on either side. The Kid was simply the hero of the people of Cuba, and he quietly smoked and grinned, and talked as he pleased with the governor and the others, black and white, accepted all honors and complained matter of course. He was most modest because he did not pretend to be modest at all. The peopole had tom-tom bands, with other instruments with African names, and the African music split the air while all were eating. African music and instruments are becoming more difficult to imitate it. Recently I saw a great crowd of raguannum and carelessly dressed people of all ages, and heard a wierd noise. It was one of these African instruments made. They sang their bodies—they sang and played—music, voice, and motion. They had just such a band at the banquet for Kid Cocolate in here to play, and they imagined that in Harlem—Negroes doing their uttermost to be as Negroes as possible, and white folks doing their best to feel and seeing their little bit of "condescension" as they enjoy life with those Negroes?

TUSKEEGE INSTITUTE, Ala.—Gridiron warriors and recruits of the twelve schools of the Southern Colored Intercollegiate Conference, upon whom Morehouse, Clark, Morris Brown, Edward Waters, Florida A. and M., Knoxville, Fisk, Lane, Alabama State, Miles, Talladega and Tuskegee depend to bring in the season's laurels, reported to their respective coaches Wednesday and began the daily grind. In the Southern picture there are three new coaches and many players new to varsity competition. Gone are Sam Taylor from Clark, Ford from Memorial College and Dr. Canady from Morris Brown. Dean J. Hraga takes over the reins at the Florida A. and M. College. Dr. Knox, former Talladega lineman, has been engaged as athletic director and football coach at the ponderable Walter (Gilfe). When has assumed the role of head coach at Clark University. William Nicks is acting in a similar role at Morris Brown. The other conference members retain about the same staff of members that handled its forces last fall: A Morehouse, Vaughn and Forbes; at Alabama State, Lewis. Johnson, Lockhart and Dunn; at Talladega, T Wright; at Fisk, Henderson, Tubby Johnson; at Johnson; at Wallace, Oceane Hawkins; at Edward Waters, E.J. Clemons, and at Tuskegee, C. L. Abbott, Ross C. Owens, John H. Brown, and R. A. Mundy. Each conference member has its own problems in producing a new eleven. Each has lost valuable players through graduation and because of economic depression that has forced many boys to remain out of school this year. At Clark University, Coach Aiken is faced with the difficult problem of installing a new coaching system and the loss of several star players. Coach Nicks at Morris Brown has splendid material but, he, too, is faced with problems of installing a new coaching system. At Moynihan Coach Vaughan has material and should have his system working in good shape. In all probability a high-geared scoring machine will be turned out here. Coach Bragg at the Florida A. and M. College must install a new coaching system and develop additional reserve material. At Talladega, Coach Wright is faced with the necessity of building a new line which his stellar backs will be able to sustain. At Fisk has good material at all positions and should have another strong team. At Knoxville, Coach Hawkins has the problem of developing complete reserve material. Coach Knox at Miles must insert his system, develop replacements for his line and additional reserve material. At Edward Waters, Coach Gleeman is faced with the problem of backfield and line replacements. Head Coach Lewis at Alabama State Teachers College has the problem of developing a backfield with punch and drive. The Tuskegee coaches must find replacements for two all-American men, Duncan a right end, and Britton an left tackle. Game Date Changed MONTGOMERY, Ala.—The Alabama State-Langston game previously scheduled for October 25, has been changed to December 6. according to an announcement by Athletic Director Dunn, of the State Teachers' College.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, September 20, 1930 Eight Teams Ready for Inter- State High School Conference. Locals Not on List as Fifth Contest Opens. BY W. A. THOMAS NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — Eight teams of the Inter-state High School Conference, including Armstrong Tech, Washington; Peabody, Petersburg; Booker T, Norfolk; Norcum, Portsmouth; Union, Hampton; Thyne, Chase City, and Huntington, of Newport News, have all embarked on their fifth annual race for gridiron honors. Each coach has put his energy toward putting a champion eleven on the field, and few, if any, schools have less than four teams on the field at a time. Thyne, weakened by the loss of Lassiter, the brainy quarterback who was the big hub about which the Chase boys clicked, will be in for all manner of trouble this season. St. Joseph has an old score to settle with her; Armstrong Tech seeks revenge; Booker T. has ambitions; Huntington Hightown wants a show-down this season as a result of two previous tie games. St. Joseph, Huntington, Armstrong and Booker T., with teams practically intact from last year, will no doubt be the most serious contenders for titular honor. However, Union, with a new coach and the Martin system of western football adopted at Virginia State may prove a dark horse. Penbody is always a box of both, and his skills vastly improved and much more dangerous eleven. Armstrong Tech is always good. Two games that should draw record crowds are the St. Joseph-Huntington game at Norfolk League Park, and the Booker T-Huntington game at the same place, two weeks later, October 17. St. Joseph has never been satisfied with the heating he received in Newport last October and "Beggy" White had his boys out around Labor Day, tuning them up for the Shipbuilders. Huntington will seek to avenge the 32-0 defeat plastered on his last season by the fightin' Booker T. These two games will probably decide the conference title. Senators Split with Hollins A.C.

Four games were played in St. Louis and four will be played at the Hamtramck Stadium. If the teams break even in the eight games, the manhunt will do to determine the ninth and deciding game will be played. As this is the first time Detroit has been in a play-off, a large crowd has made reservations for the impending season. The team and the advance ticket sale is larger than at arv time during the fast closing season. BLUEFIELD. — Prospects for the coming season of the Bluefield gridsters are no so bright as many of the candidates who were expected ha'c failed to appear on account of financial problems. Coach Moore is getting excellent co-operation from the men who have reported and they are gradually being rounded into condition for the first game, Josh against the A. and T. College next week. Much interest is shown in the game because the A. and T. aggregation is being coached this season by "Bil Jeff, who for five years was the Big Ten mentor to Josh," Moore's assistant at B. I., and is on to many of the big boys' tricks. It is hard to predict the outcome of the game which marks the second meeting of these two institutions. This year the Big Blue, defeated the A. and T. College to the tune of 18-0. Rangers Beat White Club CARNEY—The Highland Rangers defeated the Carmys A.C., white, by the score of 12-9 in fourteen innings on Saturday. D. Scott of the Rangers relieved W. Scott on the mound and was the winning pitcher. A a shoe string catch in the tenth inning by the tenth inning, the seventh inning, threatened scoring by the white team. L. Scott, manager of the Rangers, would like a higher from team captain in engagement for Sunday and other dates. By W. A.

SPECIAL FEATURE PARIS.—In spite of strong opposition from the Labor Unions of many European countries, the natives of French West Africa will be forced to devote a certain period of time to the construction of public works and other improvements in their native lands. The minister of the colonies, M. Francis Petri, in signing the decree strenuously denies that it is forced labor, in the popular meaning of the term, and declares that the measure was necessary to stave off periods of starvation, to wipe out certain diseases, and to stop the carrying of loads on the heads of natives for long distances. This latter, he says, is one of the scourges of Africa, and will be stopped with the building of railroads. In an interview in Le Journal M. Petri says: "The term 'forced labor,' so much used by the conference at Geneva, is reflected by us. The term is altogether unrelated to prison labor, which is unpaid. In Africa, labor that is requisitioned for public works is paid for at the same rate as the voluntary labor." In some of the French colonies in Africa, he said, the method of recruiting native labor was the same as that which had been practiced or being practised by Belgium, Holland, and England in some of their colonies. The International Bureau of Labor, headed by Albert Thomas, member of the International Committee of forced labor, defined it as any labor for which the Negroes do not offer themselves, voluntarily. B Mlaise Negro member from Senegal in supporting the decree for forced labor said that it was necessary in order to teach them modern methods of agriculture. Industrial School TOWN, PA.

If the dish towels are soaked in hot water, to which a little ammonia has been added, it will remove all unpleasant odor. One may promote the growth of the blaches by dipping a soft brush in lanolin and touching the edges of the eyelids with it. Application should be made before tiring. Two spools nailed to the wall about two inches apart make an excellent broom holder. Of course the broom must hang upside down. When the child complains of earache, try giving it a liberal dose of castor oil. This may seem an odd remedy, but it very often cures the earache within a short time. A spoonful of mustard added to hot washing water will remove fish odor from silverware and pans. By adding a teaspoonful of turpentine to a basin of lukewarm water and soaking it in this solution for two minutes before washing them, then wash in the usual way. A cup of strong coffee will be found very effective in removing the odor of onions from the breath. If a small quantity of turpentine is added to the pot of starch, it will prevent the iron from sticking to the goods. Coffee, tea, and all spices must be kept in tightly closed receptacles in order to preserve their flavors. If red bordered towels, or red print ginghams, are soaked in borax water, it will prevent them from fading. To separate postage stamps that have become stuck lay a thin paper over them and then run a hot iron over the paper; they will come apart easily. When boiling eggs, if each egg is pricked with a pin before placing in water, it will not crack. **TEST FOR METAL BUTTONS** A good way to test metal buttons is with a magnet. If they can be picked up, it is an indication that they will rust when washed. CREAM SUBSTITUTE Two or three marshmallows to a cup of dolce, substitute for cream. Caring For Little Wounds Take care of l. little wounds that your children sho woyn. Thousands of children (and this is not an exagregation) die every year om a scratch or a cut that is so little that mother merely kisses it and says it will be all right in a minute. Usually the 'hans of a playing kiddle are soiled and thats a very moderate term indeed. The cut or puncture appears amid the dust and dirt of play, so that if it is not taken care of immediately, hundreds of little gerns are at hand to enter the wound and feed on the tice rich blood that attracts them. A few days later the wound is infected and there is danger. Wash the wound thoroughly in sterile hot water, with a sterilized cloth as soon as you know of it. Then put some antiseptic on the wound and cover it with a little sterilized cloth, held in place with a piece of adhesive. Next day. ..... I dress off and look at the wound. If it is inflamed or looks "dangerous," see your doctor at once. You may save a very valuable life by doing this. It isn't the cut, the puncture or the scratch that causes trouble as a rule—but it is the germ that enters this wound sometimes later. Of course, with a cat scratch, the germ may be on the claw and enter immediately so that particular care should be taken when purifying a little wound of this skin. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. This surely applies to little wounds, where an ounce of first-aid is often a preventive of a large doctor's bill. FOR BEE STINGS For a bee or insect sting, first remove the sting if it remains. Then apply ammonia water, or carbonate of soda and water. Common must apples will relieve the pain. Oranges cut tobacco and apply to the sting. WATCHING THE BIG PARADE By RALPH M.T.THEWS Hurricanes and Political Speeches—Hot Air Perhaps at no other time of the year could Baltimoreans have appreciated the seriousness of the catastrophe that befell hurricane-swept Santo Domingo last week. *now*, for Baltimore itself has just experienced a windstorm unassisting a destructive hurricane that wrecked the little West Indian isle. Baltimore has just emerged from a political campaign. If there is anything worse than a primary election, I cannot name it, unless it is a general election. Baltimore campaigns do things to a city that it probably never gets over. I don't like them. For instance, you see a man, day in and day out, going about his business. He is pointed out as a reputable citizen and enjoys the good will of his fellowmen. With the exception of an occasional committee of some sort or other, he does nothing that would cause you to look down upon him. Then he either gets the notion himself, or has is inflicted its owl cranium, that is, an umbrella for something. This is very bad. A Good Name Ruined Immediately, the opposition begins to hold him up to public disapproval which is exceedingly easy to exalt. They begin to expose his family life: to prove that he beats his wife and starves his children, and before the campaign is well under way, there is wonder that a vicious committee doesn't tar and fetter him and ride him out of town on a Regardless of how much his backers exploit his virtues, a candidate will probably carry the blotches on his character that he obtained in a campaign to his grave, and his offspring will never hold up their heads in the community after learning what a skulking reprobate their old man Losing is Winning Losing in an election, while it prevents a candidate from getting back through graft, the money he spent for placards, is in many respects preferable to winning. The use of sympathy that naturally goes to the under dog, whether he deserves it or not, but the winner is merely stepping on the griddle that his beloved constituents will keep hot or rough his tenure of office, uncommunicated or unpopular quicker than to be enthusiastically elected as the choice of the "peepul." All of the alliments of human kind, from poor schools to aching corns, are blamed uncommunicated or unpopular quicker than to be enthusiastically elected as the choice of dumness, the average voter imagines that marking (...) after the name of some equally dumb, but luckier numbskull, will change the world over night and he'll wake up with a silver spoon in his mouth, and three gentlemen of color for the legislature. I place particular significance on the fact that a fourth lost by six votes for no other reason than that he was not backed by the organization. This suggests that not only is it dumness on mass, Organization Bunk Personalities aside, I admire any man who runs on his own hook. It is an insult to the free thinker for a group of crooked politicians to say, "Now look here, John Public, we've decided that we want this man, so you go to the polls and vote for him. You go to the polls and vote for other bird. He won't do what we tell him. He is likely to be in office, and vote according to his convictions instead of for the best interests of the party. He is a loafer and bum." A Candidate's Qualities I never vote for a man whose only argument is the length of time I has been a loyal this or that. The other argument, "Well it's about time we were doing something for Bill Snozelzie," doesn't it seem to look for more virtues in my candidates than the fact that "he's black." Longevity and blackness carry very little weight with me. One of our noble candidates told me the other day when I asked him what his platform was, that the organization had advised him no more any issues but to be queeze through by being as indefinite as possible. A Clam Has No Backbone He will probably win. I, myself, will vote for him just to help punish the public for being so ignorant, and then carry a bottle of vinegar down to the Greek theater. I think I would feel much nobler being licked on a principle than winning on a lack of backbone; but then I'm not a politician. The Clergy Enterns - Ha! Ha! The local ministry is taking an active part in the campaign which is, of course, the most important. I think that the church should not deal intelligence in politics, but this mere qualification makes it impossible in Baltimore. When of the Baltimore clergy to eliminate crookedness when dealing with honest politicians makes their participation more of a hazard than a help. When a wardrobe manager is forced to pay a piece of money to vote for a candidate, he can rest reasonably assured that he will get that vote. There is no such code of ethics among men who are virtuous calling; they are too greedy. As to the question of Republicans and Democrats, I don't think that means anything an' more. It has degenerated into merely the privilege of being a Democrat. The Republicans promise much and give nothing; the Democrats promise nothing, but will allow persons who have the inclination to steal, gamble and take advantage of something remarkable how far a promise to keep them-out of jail goes with people who don't want to work.

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, September 20, 1930 SACRIFICES OF SUCCESS JOHN Manners was a great man if ever any human has claim to such a title. He was not "great for a Negro" for even his whites associates, though grudgingly perhaps, admitted his greatness. Some called him a "Captain of Industry." At his word business 'houses changed their policies, often closed their doors, always obeyed his command. The world was not wrong in its acclamation—it seldom is—when it proclaimed him a great man.

BALTIMORE, MD 100% Pure ALSO SERVE LORD CALVERT TEA Every Sip Delicious Twenty years before, John had come to New York with little more than a diploma from one of the leading Negro universities, seeking a way to realize his ambitious dreams. His dreams of success were not those of the ordinary Negro. They were bigger and wider. His friends had, with consoling smiles, or with doleful shaking of their heads, *+d* him that he was foolish to even hope for the materialization of such dreams in what was termed "a white man's world." But John Mafnners had before proved that genuine ability breaks down all barriers. Now at 42 he had decided that he owed it to himself to slow up a bit. If he had chosen he could have retreated; but the love of the game with him was too strong. Then one night for no important reason he decided to "take in" Harlem and its widely publicized night life. Of course, he had several times seen Harlem before, during those twenty years he had lived in New York. But always in the past when he had visited there he felt that he was cheating himself; that he really could not afford to; that he did not have time. Before one of the blase cabariets he stepped from his car and dismissed his chauffeur. He decided to walk around for awhile. He felt almost like a school boy on a holiday. He was an arresting figure as he strode alone. His face was black and deep-set. He was dressed in a fine linen compulsion. He had fought hard in his struggle for a place at the top and had conquered. The haunted of the conqueror was in his proud gait. In his walk he saw many things. Carefree joyousness was rampant even before soothing soaps were washed, nastiness and soildness was not hidden. He paused before a night club. But he did not enter. There was so much outside to see — things he had seen hundreds of times before but had not carefully noticed. He thought of long ago when he had gone to Sunday School. His round little black face scrubbed until it was dry. He thought of things about scales falling from some mar's eyes — Saul's he believed. Well he felt like that man. A woman across the street held his attention. She wore a long dart coat, her eyes were wild. her brown skin was wrinkled over sunken cheeks. Fortunately she accosted passersby. He saw that she was beginning. Not with pity did he regard her with respect, but that the strong have the weak. Yet strong as was his contempt, almost hatred, for this unknown woman, he waited. Interestedly watching her game. A car drove by with two white men — both big business men. His associates during business hours; but as social associates? He wondered. Tr car had turned around and was drawing up at the curb. "Hey there, Manners." they called him to their car. "Jump in: we are having a little party tonight." he winked at John. "There's an extra corner on well see what kind of a picker Bob is." he nudged his companion and laughed. John was rather surprised. "I'm sorry I can't join you, but I have an engagement. I'm waiting here for someone." "We're sorry too, because we are going to have a good time." Their car buzzed off. He returned to his car and asked for directions. Of course they would ask him on that kind of a party. The girls were probably colored anyway Again he thought of the beggar woman. His eyes sought her out. But she was gone, and he was strangely disappointed. Someone touched his arm. He looked around. An expression of anger and embarrassment clouded his face. It was the woman. She did look at first. Perhaps his expression had been altered, she held out her hands. "It is not for myself but two helpless children." An old story he thought as he grudely told her that he had no money. She stood for a moment with a look of disbelief in her starved eyes; then he opened the folded slin of paper into his hand and was gone. He stood gaine foolishly after her. Instinctively, he looked around to see if anyone saw the act. Then he opened the folded slin of paper. He read three words, "sacrifices of success." His puzzled expression again changed to anger. What did he mean when he brought him out? With an impatient gesture he crushed the paper and would have thrown it away: but instead he thrust it into his pocket. He started the street amid the rushing and noise — the noise of Harlem at noon and in importune times the phrase "sacrifices of success" would boldly break in upon his incoherent thoughts. "Dann that woman." he muttered to himself. "If I were a weaker man my evening would probably be ruined." A satisfied smile wreathed his lips as he thought of the absurdity of one of his power and strength being touched by such a senseless man. He masterly strode alone, his hand gripping firmly ed for the slip of paper. He thought of his fierce struere for success and wondered why the thrase should hunt him. His fight had been clean and honest. He had never been accused of violating the least of the codes of business ethics. He had not pushed anyone off the top, he had merely demanded that people be for him. There were some that the intention of unfair competition might touch: but not him. Again he reached for the paper. Suddenly there were shouts, and AMERICAN STORES CO. The More You Eat— The More You'll Like It!

Too late he realized that they were directed at him. A terrific grinding of brakes, a skid of wheels, muffled curses, then a flash of pain and darkness. He awoke in a dimly lighted room. He recalled this old-fashioned living room of the Reverend Loomis. A boy and girl were sitting on the davenport. Lovers they were, talking in low tense tones. But even in the soft, mellow dimness of the room the boy's face was set and serious. A struggle was going on within his soul that soft caresses and shy kisses could not conquer. He straightened suddenly, "Martha, I'm going," he announced with finality, his face set determinedly. "Ob. John, you can't do it." He had it plumed. "Yes dear," his tone softened. There was no need to be so hard. His mind was made up. "I must go. It is for your future as well as mine. If I stay here — a job as waiter, boothblack or porter. In New York, there is at least a chance for bigger things." A fire had leapt into his face. He was on his feet debating his cause. Martha rose too. her hand on his am she still pleaded with him. "Take me with you then." A woman with him during his fight through Hell. For he realized that a poor man's fight for access was just that. "No dear, I will be back. Just think we will ooil nivaliares with yachts, a phalanx of cars, furs, palaces, everything." He believed in his dream. But Martha was afraid, "But John," she was playing her last card, "does our love mean nothing to you? Our promises, our plans? Is money greater to you than our love?" Her voice broke. She was sobbing anrestrained. But John did not comfort her. He was afraid that at the last minute he might weaken. Without so much as a good-bye he was gone. The dreamer awoke to consciousness. He knew that the boy in the dream was himself and the girl. Martha, was the only girl he had ever loved. For twenty years he had not had time for love.

RICHMOND, Va. — Participation in Democratic primaries in Virginia is assured through the failure of white party representatives to take an appeal to the United States supreme court within the statutory time. The time (three months) for appearing from a decision of Judge Lawrence Groner, which had been upheld by the United States circuit court of appeals, expired on Saturday. Judge Groner's decision, which was made in a suit brought by James O. West against A. C. Billey, William Boltz and William Ricker, white election officials in the First prefect of Madison ward, was thatest was entitled to vote in the primary in spite of the party plan (which all except white voters from participation. This decision resulted in nominal damages being guarded West. Sustained in Second Court Wilmer L. O'Flaherty, M. J. Fulton and Leon Bazille represented the defendants and Alfred E.

Sult Barred Forever Failure to perfect the appeal bars the suit forever, according to Mr. Cohen. Under the decision of the courts, any Negro who can prove that he has met the requirements will have the same rights inquiries. West a Democrat West in his complaint claimed that he was a Democrat and had otherwise complied with the election requirements. This point was not in dispute.

The young victim of unrequited love admitted that she had attended classes with the word be-lay, but declared she was always under duress and she stood in fear of her life should she decline. On the day of the shooting she declared her tolerance had been exhausted and she made up her mind to settle the affair once and for all and refused to accommodate herself, informing him that she had placed the case in the hands of a lawyer and would meet him in court. The man flew into a rage and shot her before she could make it over, and had shot himself until some time later as she lost consciousness. MORE NAT. BAPTIST Continued from Page One Dr. Adams testified that Washington discussed the killing with him beforehand. This information was to the effect that the Dr. A. M. Townsend, referred to by Washington as "the old man," recognized the publishing house work of The National Baptist Convention as the financial fulcrum upon which the other boards operated and that he was ambitious to be rid of Plerson, the auditor, and of Dr. L. K. Williams, the president, in order that he might exercise unrestricted power. Washington was to "bump off" both these men and the president of Plerson. Washington is alleged to have shown Dr. Adams two letters about the "lobed" written by the senior Townsend. Adams testified that he did not read the letters, but that across the top of the letterhead the name of A. N. Townsend was clearly printed. Story of Murder It was further learned from the testimony of Dr. Adams that Washington had visitied him at his home at midnight after the morning of her murder and informed him that the "awful job is done." The next afternoon he showed Adams the blood stains on his car and how he had shoved Pierson under the rumble seat of the car after he had been shot. "I drove about 22 miles out of town and I was in the streets, times, and drove again like hell for 15 miles," Adams testified Washington. Informed him. Ill Feeling Mrs. Pierson and her son admitted between her husband and grandmother. "Mr. Pierson had prepared a report criticizing the operation of the publishing house by Dr. Townsend which was read at the "Tampa, Florida, meeting of the convention board," she said. She also asserted that the two men that Townsend refused to see Pierson in his office for almost two years prior to the incident, and that instructions for Townsend, he was compelled to write them to him, although the two men occupied offices in the same building. Edward E. Pierson, Jr., the dead man's son, declared that the friction between the two men heat that the latter had determined to surrender his position at the August sessions of the convention. Convention at Odds "My father asked me to take him to the station on the thirtieth of March when he left, for Louisville," asserted the son. "He said that he wanted to talk to me about our future." He insisted him named Florian, who was writing articles for a Chicago paper, and others, making his work so unpleasant that he was determined to quit. He said that although there were members of the team who were afraid of the Chicago he was determined to make one and that he was going to do it when the convention met. He was not going to leave any doubt in their minds about what was going on, then was going to resign and take work with an auditing concern in Dishonest Deals "He mentioned several deals on the part of Townsend which he considered necessary to house his $700 declaration on his home with money that belonged to the publishing board and the issuance of unauthorized checks for sums as large as $40,000." "At another time, he accused my father of shooting him in the foot, claiming that he had shot the foot four times, 25 caliber revolver to the one possessed by my father." Washington Had $350 In addition to a check for $10 from Townsend to Washington which was endorsed by the Rev. E. J. F. Westbrook of Indianapolis before it was cashed. Sergeant Claude White told of finding $50 on Washington per capita. The young Men's Christian Association building in Indianapolis. "The money was in denominations of tens, twenties and fifties," testified White. "Seven of the bills came from a national bank in Nashville, Tenn., five twenties and two tens." Adams testified. Washington had him film that there was a white man in the car when Pierson was slain. Washington himself furnished most of the drama of the trial. He was best described by the dead man's widow as a tall, medium built man, with squinting eyes, receding forehead, and a slight hump in his back. He entered the courtroom with smiles and his plea, a tribute of his life. He was alert to all testimony and pretended to take copious notes, although his friend, Dr. Adams, asserted that he could scarcely write his name. Cursing in Court When Mrs. Plerson pointed her finger at him and identified him as the Morehead who had called upon her husband, he rose quickly in wrath and uttered a denunciation at the chief Plerson attorney, Epiphan. It took his coroner some time to toot his horn. At another time, he, arose, drew his pencil to the floor and uttered an oath at one of the witnesses. When the police officer was testifying, he called him a vile name. The court took no cognizance of any of these outbreaks. In the town of Scottsburg this 35-year-old suspected murderer is here and the most leavened and enjoys the best sort of camaraderie with the town's officials. He cooks for the sheriff.

Fate, however, had decided otherwise and to bring the murderer to justice, steered the investigating officers to the home of young Holley where they found a dew-spattered shot-gun, which had been recently fired. The call of the gun tallied with that from which the death-dead shell had been fired and young Holley was placed under arrest. Admits Slaving The youth denied that he had killed Canon, but under cross-examination confessed that he had fired the shot. Testimony by the youth and his elderly sweetheart that on Saturday evening young Holley had gone with Mrs. Canon, a susual, to deliver several "washings." En route home they bought a few drinks and took a ride to sober up a bit. In the meantime, the tired husband was awaiting his mate who arrived just about midnight in company with her white lover. He unbraided both of them and threatened to break Sunday morning. Canon was aroused by a noise on the outside and went to investigate. His wife had evidently heard the noise before he had, as already she was out of the house. Defends Lover As Canon reached the door-step a shot was fired and he fell to the ground mortally wounded, from a gun-shot wound inflicted by his wife's lover, while she stood by the white youth's side. Not only did she stand still, but she also killed her husband, but in her testimony she declared that her husband was armed and that the white youth shot in self-defense. This theory, however, did not mean much because neighbors who rushed to the scene of the killing declared that no revolver was near the body when they found it, nor was there one near the house. It is reported that the woman found one in a corpatch, a little before the inquest was held. Standing on the spot where his victim had fallen, Holder told of the grief that he was fond of Mrs. Canon, but denying that there had been any improper relations between them. Neighbors, however, expressed a different view in their testimony and the youth was held charged with murder in the first degree while his lover was charged with being an accomplice. Murdered for Insurance While the pair claim that the shooting was in self-defense, a study of the victim's effects revealed that he had more than $1,000 worth of life insurance of which his wife was the sole survivor. That is that the couple hoped to cover their crime, collect the money and leave the town. 369th NEW YORK REGIMENT SEEKS NEW RECORDS CAMP SMITH, PEEKKILL, N.Y.—(ANP).

Gualberto Gomez is the intrepid revolutionary writer and fighter who did valiant service all over the Antilles and all over Europe, when Cuba was struggling to throw off the power of Spain. He was captured by the Spanish and imprisoned in Spain. He was killed by a soldier he wrote. His writings were smuggled out and published. The Queen of Spain, mother of the present king, became interested in him and visited him in his prison. They became good friends. He was released—and he secured the release of all the other patriots confined in the same prisons. Villarreal is now preparing a biographical history of Mr. Gualberto. "On all sides there is voice for the opinion that colored leaders of the United States and the West India islands should be in close touch for the future," he wrote. On all sides there is repudiation of any 'Garveyism' or back to Africa ideas." Mr. Pickens declares. N.C.

Mrs. Harvey Johnson Gives a "Demonstration Dinner." Inez Duffin, the Wharton Sisters, and Others Feted Here and There. Dr. William Frazier Will Wed Tuskegee Girl. Dear Panx: Everybody managed to get a much better last week. Most of the visitors had departed and nearly all of the Baltimoreans who vacationed out of town had been just assigned to lift an eyelid. So the weary souls hibernated, snatched an extra nap or two with a view of opening up the fall activities. And while I'm on this question of the season's social activities I do hope that the club officers, hostesses and staff will get together on their dates and sort of spread them out rather than bunch them in around the fellow guests will get together on their dates and everyone has simply a gorgeous time, it's a terrible strain to make these wee hours do and do in a place during just a few days and get a fair let-down all the rest of the season. And then they have a few persons who spent Defenders' Day out of town. Izzy Duffm and her mother, Mrs. Hattie Duffm, and her summer in New York at Columbia and who says that taking eight periods of work in no way hurts her, the quola of fun, felt awfully hard for the Metropolis, and so these little week-end piliaments helped her "most interesting of persons" was in New York, so — Also, Mrs. Pauline Wharton ran up to Germanium, Fa. for the Iowa Smith. Then the Wilbur Library were weekenders in New York and Philadelphia. They brigged, Miss Ursula Wright and Mrs. Louise A. Watts, were also in Philadelphia, who delighted first-of-the-fall games in Roanoke, Va. given by Mrs. Downing, the Hawkeye, on Friday evening at their home on Seventh Street, west.

Speaking of folks being entertained Oscar DeFrest, who lives and works just a few miles along the boulevard Oscar DeFrest, where lives and works Wednesday evening at a lunchroom given by Mrs. Hilda Woodruff, of Pittsburgh, where he delivered an address. --- As I said, most of the visitors had left town—but not quite all. Dallas City, spent a few days here and at Highland Beach where she was the guest of Dr. and Mrs. M. Minton. Chicago, IL, were here for a brief stay. They are leaving this week for New York and thence to Vienna. We spent the last year. Mrs. Smith was formerly Miss Mamie Moran, of this city, you remember.

Rather than trust their school, I met Barnie Buckner Tuesday morning with her car fairly well and added on the way to School No. 12. Whoops! my dear, at the last minute comes news that I will be waking the weds of Tuskegee. To be a little more explicit. Mrs. Evelyn C.

Student nurses are not the only ones involved in this thing over in the marriage line at Provident Hospital. Now Mr. and Mrs. Edward Green are amouncing the bride-elect, Elijah Beth, to James Sidney Clayton. And the important date was October 27, 1929, my dear.

The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly Negro Insurance Companies Provide 5451 Jobs, White, 0 Harry H. Pace Gives Startling Figures on What Premiums Paid by Negroes are Doing. By Harry H. Pace Total Premiums ..... 957,216,635 Total Jobs Created and Managed by the company Now contrast the above figures with the premium income shown in the sworn statements of the following colored companies and the number of their employees, all of whom are colored. It can easily be seen that colored people have it in their own money to aker to a considerable extent the lack of high grade employment among their own ranks.

This vast sum of money would have created jobs for at least 15,000 colored men and women as clerks, stenographers, agents and bookkeeper to takc care of this additional business. In addition, there would have been millions of dollars available for first mortgage loans on the property of colored people whereas not a one of these companies refused to lend money for the purpose of lending money on property either owned or occupied by colored people.

If You Have Trouble With The number of jobs produced to Negroes by the premium income of insurance companies when contrasted with the lack of any jobs at all which Negroes receive as a result of premiums paid by colored people to white companies ought to set us all to thinking. While it is impossible to accurately obtain the amount of premiums paid by colored people into white insurance companies, a careful study of the premium, income of several companies admitted active in the colored field has been made. In every case, we believe, the actual premiums paid by colored people are very much higher than the figures quoted, but to be on the safe side, we must estimated as colored money only a cent of the premium of companies like the National of Tennessee and the Industrial Life and Health of Atlanta, although it commonly reported that the colored business comprises a very much larger proportion of the income of these and other similar companies. Here are the results of a tabulation which, if it errs at all, greatly underestimates the amount of premium paid last year, since the colored companies people, and large disbursement of money did not creat a single job for the workers.

NEW YORK. — Follpwing a deadlock resulting from a disagreement over a report of tellers and during which there were a succession of stormy sessions, the Rev. J. W. Hurse, of Kansas City, Mo., retained the post as president of the National Baptist Convention of America which closed its Fiftieth Jubilee here, Monday. The naming of the Rev. Mr. Hurz came at the close of the session Monday and was made unanimous by vote of the convention. Other officers elected were Rev. C. C. Coleman, Los Angeles, first vice president; Rev. M. A. Pleasants, Houston, Txas, second vice president; Rev. C. P. Madison Norfolk, Va., recording secretary; Rev. S. J. Jones, Chicago, corresponding secretary; Rev. E. H. Branch, Chicago, treasurer; W. B.

Prince Brothers Lead "The five Princes," the term applied to the Prince brothers, comprising a pair of twins and three others, all prominent as Baptist ministers and laymen in the Middle West, led the fight for the Rev. J. W. Hurse. In a nominating speech he was characterized as the remarkable man who had risen from an uneducated street preacher in the red light district of Kansas City to the vice-president of the convention. The Rev. S. J. Sones had the support of a large constituency of the delegates who claimed that his education and training better fitted him for the post as head of the organization. These adherents openly claimed that delegates favorable to him, who had been duly accredited and had paid their assessments, had been left off of the list and thereby prevented from voting. Jones Men Block Action Because of this, a group of Jones men stood at the front of the church and blocked any effort to proceed with the business of the convention until this matter was settled. In an effort to pour oil on the troubled waters, the candidates held a conference and both agreed to a convention would be placed in the hands of an arbitration committee. On Saturday morning this committee recommended that both candidates withdraw and that either new candidates be chosen or that a new election be held. The report was followed by another stormy session at which supporters of both sides prevented action on the proposition. While the action was noisy and at times venement, a friendly spirit prevailed the convention, the candidates themselves conferring from time to time in seemed to be friendly intercourse. Hurse Raps Opponents In his annual address, which turned in on the Rev. J. W. Hurse flayed his opponents as "bookish ingrates." He was loudly "booed," however when he suggested that Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the National Baptist Convent, the national module administrator affair, con- vention.

Four-Year Term Proposed Calling on the convention to give the younger ministers a chance, the acting president recommended that the constitution be changed so that it will limit the term of national officers to four years. In his recommendations he also proposed that the seminary plant in Nashville be sold and the money used to enlarge the Baptist institution in Virginia. He also proposed a monument to the late Rev. Dr. Edmund Wood, the only president of a national Baptist convention to die in the harness. Urges Pooling of Resources The speaker recognized the present economic condition by urging that Negroes merge their resources and establish business concerns to give young men and women of the group jobs. The Republican administration was its treatment of Negro Gold Star Mothers. The president-elect, it is said, began his ministerial career by preaching under an umbrella 30 years ago in the streets of Kansas City. His church at present is one of the largest in the country. The Rev. S. S. Jones, his opponent, is also regaled of the ability of the abolitionists, Baptists, and has a large church in Chicago. Dr. Austin Talks A Million Pieces Monthly In his annual report Wednesday, the Rev.

Ransom was elected for the fifth term as president of the Baptist General Association of Virginia. Denies Baptists Charge The Rev. John Evans, religious editor of the Chicago Tribune, denies the charge of Baptist, denies that Chicago church leaders failed the Baptist Convention of the National Baptist Convention in retaliation for the boycott of "loop" merchants who failed to employ colored help. In the September 15 issue of the magazine, Time, he makes this statement: My decision for giving little society convention activities rests on the following reason: Several days prior to the convention a convention press agent sent me a letter requesting for its publication. On two occasions I attended the convention seeking story material. On each occasion I was directed to send a story using timed graphs reports of convention doings at 30 cents a copy. After attending quite a number of church conventions where every co-owner was present, I decided that the colored brothen were not anxious for publicity and that I did not want to foster what seemed to be a petty publicity venture. I received admiration and respect for Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the L. C. "Women" Subject of Dr. Sockman's Address "Our Changing Women" is the subject which Dr. Ralph W. Sockman will discuss during the National Sunday Forum over WEAP Sunday, September 16. The mergence of women from the seclusion of man's private possession into the public work of the world has changed her codes of conduct for better and for worse. states and in sympathy with women. The daughters of today are growing less and less family-minded. In reaction from the old "clinging-vine" type of girlhood some have swung to the manliness of the desert cacao, which is the main of the new economic and moral freedom," declares the speaker.

S.C.—(ANP)—Voters of this state experienced a change of heart and Tuesday defeated Senator Cole L. Blease and his lynching platform on which he sought to re-enter the United States Senate. Senator Blease endorsed lynching and mob-violence, pointing out that when he was governor of the state he did not call troops to protect Negroes accused of attacking women. His advice to top-leaders and sheriffs, was "notify me after the lynching has been held." During the latter days of the campaign, Governor Richards, who has proved a nenesis to mob violence and who has made strenuous efforts to prevent lynchings in South Carolina, took the stump against Blease. Women's organizations issued statements denouncing him for seeking to hide his endorsement and leading newspapers repudiated him and censured him for injecting the lynching issue into the campaign.
