By EVA JESSYE NEW YORK.—In combating the "numbers" craze in Harlem the law is facing a giant iron octopus, whose innumerable tentacles and intricate subdivisions are sucking the life blood of finance, waxing fat off the rich fare of nickels, dimes and dollars. It is safe to say that nine out of ten adult play the numbers and as long as Wall Steret releases a report, papers are published and a few pennies are to be had, the numbers will be played. This game owes its tenacious grip not only to the desire for financial gain, but other forces as old as humanity and as much a part of man as his own skin. One of these forces is the gambling urge, whether pioneer, adventurer or the soldier who races for the military crossing. All life is a gamble and taking a chance is man's second nature. The second force, and far and away the greatest stimulus to the number rocket, is the element of superstition. May I say in passing that the old idea that the Negro' is of all people most superstitious has been exploded right here in Harlem. Our neighbor, the Jew, for all our physical vision, is deeply and deeply a believer in signs, dreams, and the Negro and Jewish superstitions are surprisingly similar. Number Sought in Dreams It is really pliful, nevertheless interesting, to note the frantic pursuit of the numbers into realms both natural and supernatural. The number is obtained from every imaginable source. Little confectionery and stationery stores prominently display number dream books which give correspondring numbers for every conceivable dream one might have, also names of individuals and actual events. Consultation of the dream book is a morning ritual religiously observed in Harlem flats.

Probate of Will S West African Twenty-two Wives Get Cash; Education LONDON, England.—Probate has been granted of the will of Josiah Henryson Doherty, a white West African merchant, whose holdings were quoted recently by a Manchester banker at $3,000,000. The will shows that his fortune is actually $295,155. The sum of $292,500 is in West African properties and the remainder $2,655 in England. This fortune is distributed by will among his twenty-two widows and his forty-two children. The will was made at Campos-Square, Lagos, in May, 1927. The main clauses of the will provide $500 and $15 a month, to seven wives who are named in person, and $500 to each wife who is living at his death.

Brookins admitted he was married to Mrs. Ethel Helt, white, another former athletic department secretary, at Alcoa, Illinois, on September 1.

J. — Vehemently declaring that his mother-in-law was no good, and that he was glad she was dead, Charles Phillips, West Indian, admitted that he had chopped her to death with an ax here last week. Phillips also declared that he had wounded his wife, who hospital attentions say may die also. I'm Satisfied Talking with quick accents and a fast flow of words, Phillips stood in front of the house shortly after the crime, as horrified neighbors listened to his story of the tragedy. "What good, you use it," he argued. "If you have something that you can't use, you discard it. don't you? That woman was no good; I'm glad she is dead. She should have been dead years ago. I'm satisfied." Because of frequent quarrels, for which he blamed his mother-in-law, Phillips said that he and his wife had been able to live together for only two years, out of six they had been together. After spending the summer in New York, he came home last week and went to the home where the pair quarrelled. He left and returned when the quarrel was renewed, and after his wife refused to admit him he broke through a window to enter the house. He cried and cried himself in an upstairs room by this time, but Phillips went to the shed and secured the ax. At this time, Mrs. Gibbs came home and seeing what was happening rushed into the house where she was, met by Phillips who attacked her, and met her again. He went to his wife's room and, after breaking the door open, *attacked Wants Wife to Live Phillips declared that he was glad his wife did not die. He wants her to live. "She will take care of my child better than anybody else would. A mother always does. I believe she will make a good wife for somebody now.

BOSTON. — "The white men brought the Negro here against his will, held his women as concubines, the race as slaves, today in this civilization, is persecuting him and if such conditions continue, the 'white man' is damned, not the Negro," was the closing statement of Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, of New York, in a discussion with Prof. Thomas N. Carver, white, department of economics, Harvard University, on the subject "Should Negroes be Encouraged to Social Equality," at a meeting held at Ford Hall Forum, Sunday. Professor Carver criticised militant leadership of the Negro and suggested that a more docile leader would accomplish more. Replying briefly to what he called a criticism of his type of leadership—militant leadership—Dr. Du Bois waxed bitterly sarcastic and sneeredly said that if telling the white man of existing conditions, presenting the facts to him was militant, he was afraid that he would never make a good leader in the opinion of Prof. Carver. Ancient History During the discussion, Prof. Carver dealt at length on ancient history, made several biological comparisons, and referred to the leadership on Jesus Christ and of Abraham, Lincoln, saying that they were not militant leaders although recognized today as military leaders the world has ever known. Apparently bored, Dr. Du Bols, in his subbuttial said that he expected more from Harvard and did not look for one of its representatives to hold Continued on Page Seventeen, Col.

BELL DECLINES TO QUIT OHIO STATE SQUAD COLUMBUS, O.—I "will remain," William Bell, star tackle on the Ohio State University squad told the AFROAMERICAN, Tuesday. Bell, who was barred from the Navy-Ohio State game in Baltimore, Saturday, had been urged to quit the team by the Delta Lodge, No. 149, LB.P.O. Elks at Akron, which is sponsoring his education at the institution. Is Sent Wire When officials of the ELks learned that the team was coming to Baltimore and the star tackle would not be sent with it but instead would be sent to Baltimore to scout a team they wired Belt to retinue to stay with the squad. The message to Bell said: "Local newspapers carry report you were left for no reason. We consider this a gross insult to you and a disgrace to all Ohio. Delta Lodge No. 149, Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World, your benefactor, advises and instructs you not to report for practice or to play football with Ohio State." Although admitting that he had told Naval Academy authorities that he would not bring Bell to Bainbridge Saturday, L. Larson the athletic director, assured that the Naval Academy had not officially objected to Bell participating in the game. Officials of the lodge and leaders throughout the country are wondering, however, why the athletic director found it necessary to inform the naval authorities that Bell would not play. It was recalled that two years ago, two members of the Ohio State track team 'brought to Annapolis to participate in the track meet,' were told not to wear and were told to the field. The Ohio State coach, however, gave the boys revenge when he sent every colored member on the field the next day when the Navy went to Columbus for the meet. Bell, it is believed, has been told that he will be given the same kind of opportunity to get revenge next year when the Navy eleven comes to Ohio.

RITCHIE, Governor. CAN'T CHARLOTTE, N.C.—With only a small percentage in Winston-Salem, N.C. (North Carolina's second largest city), Charlotte, and Greensboro, take the lead in the racket imported from the North, with Charlotte having a slight edge over Greensboro. With figures as the basis of estimation, it is seen that nearly $24,000 per week is played in Charlotte, no line being drawn between the two races in this game. White percentage exceeds that of the Negro players, in terms of dollars and cents, but not in numbers. Here, as in other places, the main figure in control of the racket is of foreign extraction, while there are one or two minor bankers; but all these are dimmed by the humgness of the transactions of the mysterious Jew banker, whose figures run into five figures each week. Holding Slip a Crime Just when the game was initiated into North Carolina is not definitely known, but it is now about two years old, and seems to be gaining despite rigid police interference. In these wwo cities, a prison offense is constituted by simply having one of the precious "slip" in one's possession. Police have, on previous occasions, caught "runners," making one raid, gathered in 14, but all were released. The police thought that the game was flourishing to any extent at that time. However, the law has been tightened up, and it is now disastrous to have even a "slip." After the manner of their northern brothels, runners here in both towns show a decided preference for the popular Chevrolet; while many make their calls on foot, early each night is locked up and laced at night, thus surrealing their clients of getting their numbers in. Many "hits" once were felt by the bankers, but lately the number has grown. The week having been registered among Negroes, while the favored "203," a few weeks ago created a veritable landslide, almost running the bankers' game, as the number was played Greenhous, as well, as in Charlize. $9,000 in Greensboro In Greenboro, it is estimated that nearly $9,000 per week is played, with white patronage there in the minority. Widespread desituation follows in the wake of the game in the in-house,ustances, poorer families are playing, hoping to be the long odds, and come through with a "hit," in most cases falling. The game is not confined to any class; it is played by all. One doctor recently played around $40 in one week. The "big kill" never occurred. One can place his or her numbers almost anywhere, with personal runners or with business places if he knows where to go. When the racket first began in Charlotte an insurance company tried to give up the ghost when "hits" became too abundant for his resources. In Winston-Salem In Winston-Salem, the number business was nipped in the bud when police descended upon the would-be operators, and immediately entered the building while was footholds in other North Carolina towns. Raleigh plays a very small amount, while further down the eastern line talks on about other parts of the state.

Girls' Co-operative Eliminates Board Bill in Boarding School Pa Brings Enough Food from Home to Last a Week and if he Lets, Students Borrow Potatoes, Rice and Flour. BE WRONG NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Two ofay women were ordered to leave New Haven within one hour when they were arraigned before Judge Dunn in the police court after they were found enjoying the companionship of two men in a Charles Street house. Both admitted to the police that they had come to the Eim City from New York for the purpose of being entertained over the week-end. At a loss for charges, coppers of this Dixie-minded town charged the quartet with idleness, a technical charge which covers a multitude of purposes when police wish to do something illegal. Bars were dazzling: beauties and spectators in the courtroom gasped upon sighting the pretty maidens who frankly admitted they had enjoyed the privilege of being guests of gentleness of color. Helen, MacArthur, alias Phyllis Ghelen, an extremely attractive girl, with blond hairs, and Irene Lavigne, alias Rene LeVine, a brunette of equally pretty features, are the names the women gave. It was Officer Jeban of the Dixwell Avenue station who first spot-tested Rene LeVine in Dixwell Avenue. His attention was attracted by two pretty women with luggage entering a restaurant in the company of two brown men, who later turned out to be Jesse Turner, 37, of 24 Charles Street, and Howard Moore, 23, of 23 Winthrop Avenue. POLICE WATCH The sight was so unusual that the copper watched from the entrance of the street. He called Officer Crowley to aid him. Then the two women emerged from the eating place and headed toward Charles Street. In front of- 24 Charles Street, they acted as strangers in the address. They were placed on the place.

And in these times of financial stress it is hard to imagine such a thing. This, however, is made possible by the fact that the girls bring their food from home and thus board themselves. That does not mean that each girl goes into the kitchen to cook. The mems are planned according to food eaten in this part of the country. And thus the girls bring food.

CRISIS EXISTS Punishment of Guilty Slavers Asked. (Special to the AFRO) MONROVIA, Liberia. — Citizens in mass meetings demanding that President King resign, and petitions to the legislature, October 2, asking his impeachment, are the turbulent results of the International Commission's expose of slavery in the republic. Petitions ask also that the administration officials responsible for frauds and bribes in connection with the slave charges be ousted and tried in the court. Resolutions adopted at the General Citizens.

Clarence O. Lewis New Evening School Director. WASHINGTON, D.C.-The question of the future of the kindergarten classes and teachers which has agitated school officials, teachers, and normal graduates for several months, has at last been settled. At the meeting of the school board on Monday, certain decisions were arrived at which will stand unless and until Congress shall change the laws in the Washington public school system will continue to operate unless the average daily attendance of a kindergarten falls below eighteen pupils. Under the new kindergarten policy of the board, a one-teacher kindergarten falling below an average daily attendance, if it is discontinued if it is decided that the services of the teacher are more urgently needed elsewhere. If a class falls below the eighteen daily attendance, the kindergarten teacher is not needed more urgently in another part of the school system. Further Reductions Would Impair Further reductions than these, the board members decided, promote the effective effectiveness of the kindergarten. Under the new policy, Superintendent of Schools Frank W. Ballou is authorized to transfer qualification grades 4-4 of the elementary schools whenever in the judgment of the administrative officers the need for additional teachers to relieve congestion in the elementary schools is greater than that in the kindergarten. Vacancies in the kindergarten, caused by promotion, termination of services, retirement, resignation or death will be filled either by the kindergarten teacher in the grades who desires to return to kindergarten teaching; or by the reinstatement of a kindergarten teacher on leave and eligible for reinstatement; or by the appointment of candidate No 1 on the appropriate basis. In many cases, in upper class from the Teachers' College, it was decided. Few Exceptions Noted There will be a few exceptions to the newly adopted rule. For instance, a teacher may teach part time in two different schools. All teachers will be required to teach daily. Cadet Corps Unsatisfactory. A report from the personnel committee of the board described the administration of the colored cadet corps as unsatisfactory and pointed to a lack of co-operation with the administrative officers and the members of the corps. Recommendation was made that the situation be referred to Supt. Bailou and Superintendent of Colored Schools Wilkinson for inspection. The board is signed by Mrs. Smith, Rabbi Abram Simon and Dr. J. Hayden Johnson. Superintendent Wilkinson reported that 16 teachers in the kindergarten and elementary school teaching if it is ever found necessary to transfer them. Practice Professions Permission to practice professions was grar'd by the boar to Dr. J. E. Washington, a teacher in the Cardozo High School, and Miss G. A.

Davis, president of West Virginia State College declared in an address over radio station WRC, Wednesday. Dr. Davis said: Dr. Davis said, "The degree of education which the Negro possesses has enabled him to become dissatisfied with his present educational status. Examples of educational inequalities which in part make up this dissatisfaction are: " (1) The high school enrollment among Negroes in the Southern states is less than ten per 1,000 while in the United States the number of high school students per 1,000 15 38 2. Ninety-two white students for every 10,000 whites attend college in 17 Southern states and the District of Columbia while in the same territory 17 Negro students are enrolled for 10,000 Negroes. for every 10,000 Regents "3 In 14 Southern states there were in 1929 only 25*st state accred- tion year high schools. ed fourth - not one of 16 Southern states has any provision been made for the graduate or professional training of Negroes. **Teachers' Salaries Halved** 5 In 15 Southern states the average annual salary for white teachers $884 and for the Negro teachers $487; the white teachers average $485 each and the Negro teachers $44; the average salary per white teacher $30.77 and for the Negro $10.24; and, the average length of term for whites is 162 days for the Negroes 135. Land Grant Schools "6. Seventeen Land-Grant Colleges for colleges in as many states as annually $338,000 out of $13,000,000 from federal grants. This is about one-fortieth of the total for one-tenth of the population. It would require annually about $2,500,000 more of federal money to bring these Negro colleges up to parity with the white colleges in the same states. These inequalities hampers the Negro in every phase." Store Clerk Rapes Woman Customer DETROIT, Mich. — (ANP) — The citizens are keyed up to the fighting point over a reported criminal assault on a woman in the basement of the Brushaber Furniture Store by one of its white clerks last Monday.

Catching her, she tripped her door and knocked her over, some old mattresses. Lynchers Not Guilty in South Carolina WALHALLA, S.C.—(ANP)-Seventeen white men, including the mayor of this town, have been tried for lynching Allen Green, and seventeen have been freed by a jury of white men. The seventeen white men, who were supposed to have been tried in August, but the year before they were tried, a trial Monday. The mayor, R. L. Ballentine, produced a friend who knew and testified that His Honor at the time of the lynching was in his company, and that he had been tried for the same other witnesses of the lynching described how Green was taken from the jail, and the sheriff knocked down in the effort to protect his property. But the sheriff also told the famous "lynching tree," which has now disappeared, and strung him up and his body riddled with bullets. But men on trial simply did not believe that he was seen in the mob, but as far as they were concerned they could not "positively identify them." Sheriff Thomas and his son, however, did "positively identify John Sheriff" but they, too, were acquitted. Can't PLAY Can't REST child needs Castoria WHEN a child is fretful and irritable, she seems distressed and uncomfortable, can't play, can't sleep, it is a pretty sure sign that something is wrong.

A few drops and the condition which caused the trouble is right; comfort quickly brings restful sleep. Nothing can take the place of Castoria for children, it's perfectly harmless, yet always effective. For the protection of your wee one—for your own peace of mind—keep this old reliable preparation always on hand. But don't keep it just for emergencies; let it be an everyday aid.

Vestal, white, of this city, was nearly defeated for re-election last Tuesday. The count shows that he won by only 9 votes. A account may defeat him. He will be remembered as the congressman whose wife was also defeated by the admirer of Mrs. Oscar DePriest to membership in the Congressional Club composed of wives of members of congress. Later reports depicted Mrs. Vestal vowing to marry vordial to Mrs. DePriest when the reception was held despite stories to the effect that her invitation had been withheld by President and because of Mrs. Vestal's attitude.

Salisbury, Md., Court House Cellar Yields Skeletons of Slaves SALISBURY, Md. — Human skeletons, believed to be those of slaves who died while confined in a pen awaiting sale, have been engaged in remodeling the basement in Witicoon County Courthouse. The courthouse was erected on the site where the slave was at one time a flourishing slave mart. Later a tavern was built on the same site. The courthouse was built in 1878. This old tavern, situated in what was Worcester County, faced "Divisional" Street, which marked the line between Somerset and Worcester Counties. The tavern was famous shopping and travelers up and down the peninsula. It was here that the planters stopped going north and south and here in the cellars of the old tavern were the asses in which they were locked in away were brought in to awaxton day. Beat Naked Girls in Dixie Jail BIRMINGHAM, Ala.—(GNA)—I served several horrible days in the Birningham City Jail when I was snatched up by a policeman and held under suspicion. In the jails and penal farms here in the South, workers suffer unjust persecution many instances meant to be said, with a Communist worker this week. Young girls are thrown into this prison charged with petty misdeans. They are grossly insulted by the whoring they do, because they are severely punished. Girls are commanded to undress and bow over barrels in front of these white thugs, while they are lashed. The white girls fare somewhat better requesting to "lay out" jail senators. In the prison kitchen it is hell for these women. The best is cooked for the white beans, and the worst is to eat the inferior foods like white meat, white beans, and bread made from the poorest corn meal. The men workers are sent to the earthly hell, called slag pits, which are well known as mankillers. Frequently the overseers are seen bouncing oak or hickory pick handles on the prisoners. Many of these arrests are made under the vsgernstroth which give plenty of labor for the slave drivers and for the city.

White, Louis Davenport and Linwood Koger, candidates for the legislature in the recent election. They lost by about 3,000 votes, the leading Democrat polling 15,756, Mr. Koger 12,877. Lack of funds and absence of a district-wide organization were two other factors. Take the 14th ward, a G.O.P. stronghold, for example. Only 1,100 registered Democratic voters stayed at home on election day, but 1,500 Republicans failed to vote at all. In the 16th ward there are 7,431 registered Republicans. Broening candidate for governor, got 7,981 votes but no Republican candidate for the legislature got over 3,500 votes. The Democratic landslide, unemployment, and the business depression of the last two years are other causes of G.O.P. failure. Another liability which the legislature believes in the presence of President Hoover in the White House. The President's rudeness to colored delegations, his nomination and pushing of Judge Parker, and his general lack of human sympathy made the path of the state G.O.P. a thorny one indeed. Other influences include the lukewarm attitude of Mayo, Browning and the inclusion of school board appointments and the inclusion of Miss Martha Elizabeth Brown, white, of Texas, on the G.O.P. legislative ticket.

THOUGHTS OF THE FOUNDER (1906) Lynching is murder, lynchers are murderers and as such should be punished as the law provides. Lynching is not only a murderer but a coward as well. A man who disguises himself to commit a crime is a double criminal. When two or men conspire to murder it is premeditated and the eyes of the law murder in the first degree. That is all there is J. N. Mullery Editor and Publisher. 1802-1922. Neighborly Sentiments When President Hoover in his Thanksgiving Proclamation urged prayers on November 27 for the "neighborly sentiments of our people," he must have forgotten about his un-neighborly refusal to pose with his Italian Commissioners. It was an excellent idea, however, for Mr. Hoover to write his Thanksgiving plea before the elections last Tuesday. When President Hoover in his Thanksgiving Proclamation urged prayers on November 24 for "the neighbor who forgot about his un-neighbility refuted to pope with his Haitian Commissioners. It was an excellent idea, however, for Mr. Kissinger to plea before the electors last Tuesday. Parker Nightmares The campaign of the National Association for the Admendment of Colored People and organized labor against senators who voted for Judge John J. Parker, white, for the U.S. Supreme Court last spring, undoubtedly caused the defeat of Senator Allen (Rep. Kas,) and the Democratic opponent, Senator Cupper (Rep.) endorsed by the N.A.A.C.P., was elected. In Ohio, McCulloch (Rep.), pro-Parkerite, fell before the Democraticaucult. Three Senator sessions were re-elected: Mackenzie (Rep.), Hastings (Del.) and Keyes (N.H.), all Republicans. In Rhode Island, from 50 to 87 per cent of the colored vote cut Metcalf. In Kansas, the Kansas Cull declares that Allen have won had he received the usual colored vote. In Ohio, Akron colored districts voted: McCulloch 329, Buckley 629. An entire town, Urbancrest, voted: Buckley 112, McCulloch 48, Canton voted the pro-Parker McCulloch town L. In this way the good work went on last week and the N.A.A.C.P. made good its promise to arouse the people against those who made the other pro-Parker senators on the list of the association which has a long arm and a longer memory. That Parker vote is proving a nightmare to many a politician. The campaign of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and organized labor against senators who voted for Judge John J. Parker, white, preme court last year caused the defense attorney Allen (Rep. Kas.) and his Democratic opponent. Senator Capper (Rep.) endorsed by the NAA.G.P. was elected. In Ohio, McCullough (Rep.), pro-Parkerite, fell behind the Druckenbrug. Three pro-Parker senators were re-elected: Metcalf (R.I.), Hastings (Del.) and Keyes (N.L.), all Republicans. In Rhode Island, from 50 to 87 per cent of the colored senators, the Kansas City Call declares that Allen could have won he had the received the colored vote. In Ohio, Akron colored districts voted: McCullough, City Call 622. An entirely colored district: Urbancast, voted: Buckley 112, McCullough 48. Canton voted the pro-Parker McCullough down, 8-1. In this way the good work went on last week and the City made good its promise to the people against those who made the defeat of Parker so difficult. There are still other pro-Parker senators on the list of the association which has a long arm and a longer memory. Parker vote is proving a nightmare to many a politician. Lyles and Spirituals "Mr. Aubrey Lyles, great vaudeville star, of the combination known around the world as Miller and Lyles, told the AFRO Club Saturday—'I hate spirituals.'" "Every time I hear a spiritual," Mr. Lyles said, "is a picture of a white master whipping my slave母母 mother or selecting the prettiest of her daughters for the big house." "Thousands of persons, perhaps millions, agree with Mr. Lyles and I, but big enough to enjoy and develop folk songs without permitting themselves to be influenced by what white folk think today or what they did seventy years ago. The fact is spiritualism manages a man like any other, comes to some persons when they ride in a Lincoln car, smoke a fifty-cent cigar, live in a $10,000 home or ride in a de luxe motor boat. The fact is spiritualism which other people get by betting and winning at numbers or racing, by looking at paintings, by solving a problem at work or by falling in love. Other people, like music but it doesn't sound like music, nor do they experience the same easing of spirit which comes when we sing our own songs. A beautiful girl, an exquisite flower, a snow-capped mountain, an unfinished womanser or jabber. Yet the spirituals and their first cousin, the blues, give them a luxurious and exalted state of mind which all of us seek and most of us call happiness. M. Abbey Lyles, great vaudeville star, of a combination known around the world as Miller and Lyles, told the AFRO Club Saturday—"I hate spiritual." "Every time I hear a spiritual," Mr. Lyles said, "I have a picture of a white master whipping my slave grandmother or selecting the prettiest of her daughters for gifts. I have a collection of millions, agree with Mr. Lyles, and yet they should have a superiority complex big enough to enjoy and develop folk songs without permitting themselves to be observed. I think today that we should have seventy years ago. The fact is, spiritualists give the average man a state of mind which comes to some persons when they ride in a Lincoln car, smoke a fifty-cent cigar, live $10,000 home or ride in a boat. It's a sort of estasy which other people get by betting and winning at numbers or racing, by looking at paintings, by solving a problem at home. Other people try our music, but it doesn't sound quite right. Nor do they experience the same easing of spirit which comes when we sing our songs, girl, an exquisite flower, a snow-capped mountain, a fayre sunset may make little impression upon an untutored washerwoman or laborer. Yet the spirituals and their first cousin, the blues, give all a luxurious and wonderful gift, which all of us seek and most of us call happiness. Old John Won't Attend the Hopkins Banquet The Baltimore Association of Commerce, white, is sponsoring, November 20, a testimonial banquet by the citizens of Baltimore to John Hopkins University and John Hopkins Hospital as a public recognition of the eminence and achievements of Dr. Florer of the Rockefeller Institute, will speak. Perhaps this is as sure a method as any to pull the Rockefeller leg for another million dollars. Other speakers will recite how the Hopkins has impacted and by the end of the year will have 819 hospital beds. No colored folks will attend the banquet. In fact, Old John Hopkins, early white Baltimore merchant and philanthropist, won't be there to attend the banquet, but himself and the present authorities direct Hopkins hospital and university, that it will be just as well that Old John stays away. If he attended he would be bound to ask the Hopkins Hospital to provide accommodations he left for the support and maintenance of a colored orphanage "to provide accommodations for three" or four hundred children of this class. Old John endowed, he directed the hospital receive "the indigent sick of this city and its environs, without regard to sex, age, or color . . . and the city and state of all races, who are stricken down by any casuity, shall be received into the hospital with Imagine Old John coming back to Hopkins today where professors and physicians, trustees and officials have through discrimination and prejudice erected an institution as different from original Hopkins ideals as grass is from butter. If Old John could come back and see the Hopkins color bars in the college, the medical school, the summer school and even in sports, Dr. Florer would have colored athletes, he'd be plumb discussed. The Baltimore Association of Commerce, white, is sponsoring, November 20, a testimonial banquet by the citizens of Baltimore to John Hopkins University and John Hopkins Hospital as a public recognition of the eminence and achievements of the institution. The Florer, of the Rockefeller Institute, will speak. Perhaps this is as sure a method as any to pull the Rockefeller leg for another million dollars. Other speakers will recite how the Hopkins has 5,500 students and by the end of the year will have 5,000 students. No colored folks will attend the banquet. In fact, Old John Hopkins, early white Baltimore merchant and philanthropist, won't be there either. His presence would be so embarrassing to himself and the present authorities directing Hopkins to the University, it will be well that Old John stays away. If he attended he would be bound to ask the trustees of Hopkins what they did with the $20,000 a year income he left for the support and maintenance of a colored orphanage "to provide accommodations for three or four hundred children." In the hospital which Old John endowed, he directed the hospital receive "the indignant sick of this city and its environs, without regard to sex, age, or color . . . and the poor of the city and state of all races, who are stricken down by any casually, shall be received into the hospital with Imagine Old John come back to Hopkins today where professors and physicians, trustees and students are working on a prejudice erected an institution as different from the original Hopkins ideals as grass is from butter. Old John could come back and see the Hopkins color bars in the college, the medical school, the summer school and even in sports, where other colleges have colored athletes, he'd be proud. So it is perfectly evident he won't attend the Association of Commerce: banquet, even though John Hopkins University and Medical School, white people of Baltimore, conducted by the best white people of Baltimore. Not Yet; Prove It The 'AFRO, recently 'giving Baltimore registered color vote at 729,029 (official figures) called attention to the estimate by the Amsterdam dam Neue of 28,000 for New York City. Says the Philadelphia Tribune, "The AFRO assumes that perhaps Baltimore leads the count of the registered color vote." The registered colored vote in Philadelphia is 68,580. Stand back Baltimore." Not yet. Baltimore's figures are official and therefore accurate. It is not a question suremple, opinion or estimate. It are actually men and women of the Baltimore poll books. We know it because Maryland asks ever voter his race. On the other side of the Maso and Dixon line, the race of the voter isn't asked and so there are no new registered men and women of a larger population that Baltimore and should therefore, have a larger registered vote. Has it? It should have a larger number of high school pupils and high school graduate but it hasn't. Maryland's figures are first, but no city has marked figures which are larger and non has indicated the existence of an estimate, an authenticated to such a degree that would make any person from Missouri change his mind. No, Philadelphia, Baltimore doesn't stand back yet. Show us. The AFRO, 'recently giving Baltimore's registered colored vote at 27,098 (official figures), called attention to the estimate by the Amsterdam, Nexus of 28,000 for New York City. Says the Philadelphia *Tribune*, "The AFRO assumes that perhaps Baltimore leads the country in registered colored voters." "The registered colored vote in Philadelphia is 68.530. Stand back to Baltimore, the figures are official and therefore, accurate. It is not a question of guess, surmise, opinion or estimate. There are actually the names of 37,209 colored men and women on the Baltimore poll books. We know it because Maryland asks every voter his race. On the other side of the Mason district, the voter isn't asked, and so there are no official figures. Philadelphia has a larger population than Baltimore and should therefore, have a larger number of pupils. It should have a larger number of high school pupils and high school graduates, but it hasn't. No. Philadelphia, Baltimore doesn't stand back yet. Show us. The Philly Bolt While Chicago voters stood firm against the appeals of Republican Mayor William Hale Thompson to vote down Mrs. Ruth McCormick in favor of her Democratic opponent, an entirely different situation developed in Philadelphia. There, the Vare machine voted for Republican voters over to the Democrats. Philadelphia boilers probably regret it today because Pinchot, the liberal humanitarian without them by 70,000. It's plain also that Vare's organization has been a big bill in Philadelphia. Fortunately by orders of the Republican machine, many hundreds of lifetime Republicans voted for a Democratic candidate without causing an earthquake or making the sun stand still. For them it was a new experience. It ought to eventuate into their taking a free-thinking excursion into politics hereafter and voting for the best men rather than for the best machine. Philadelphia and Baltimore can profit by the type of leadership DePriest gives Chicago. While Chicago voters stood firm against the appeals of Republican Mayor William Hale Thompson to vote down the proposed agreement, an entirely different situation developed in Philadelphia. There, the Vare machine engineered a bolt that carried many of the Republican voters over to the Democrats. Philadelphia bolters probably regret it today because, Pinchot, liberal Democrat, has a huge military base. We plain also that Vare's organization in Philadelphia is much stronger than Big Bill's in Chicago. Fortunately by orders of the Republican machine, many hundreds of lifetime Republicans voted for a Democratic candidate when causing an earthquake or making the sun stand Philadelphia and Baltimore can profit by the type of leadership DePrist gives Chicago. By Over 6,000 "Are you sure?" the AFRO wired Congressman de DrPriest, in Chicago, Wednesday morning of last week and the answer came back, "By over 6,000." Our only member of the 71st Congress is back again in the 72nd. To the Associated Negro Press Mr. DrPriest said: "The associate democratic landslide, the infidelity, our district, is maintained." "Are you safe?" the AFRO wired Congressman Oscar DePriest, in Chicago, Wednesday morning of last week and the answer came back, "By age 6,000." Our only member of the 71st Congress is back again in the 72nd. To the Associated Negro Press Mr. DePriest said: "Despite the state landslide, the integrity of district is maintained." This meant that despite the avalanche of Democratic votes which enabled Mr. J. Hamilton Lewis, white, to defeat Mrs. Ruth McCormick (Rep.), white, for the U.S. Senate by 600,000. Mr. DePriest's organization not only voted for DePriest, but voted for the other G.O. candid- The only wards in Chicago and carried by Mrs. McCormick Wards 2, 3, and 4, constituted by District These same Depistri wards voted five to one for the repeal or modification of the 18th Amendment and for the repeal of the State Prohibition. Act Chicago Congressman, therefore, regular and the first Illinois District for another two years. AFRO READERS SAY: Readers may write on any subject they like. Usually 150 words are enough.

To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN: Please accept my most sincere and utmost appreciation for your medical and technical support during my campaign as candidate for State Legislature. I am greatly pleased and encouraged to have received such gracious expression of confidence from newspapers of your country. Our defeat was caused by local and national issues over which we had no control. Mr. Davenport Thanks Vokes for Fourth District. To the Editor of the AFO-AMERICAN: With some regret over party's defeat, the same being universal all over the world, he should be thanked for, for 1934. With some regrets over party's defeat, the same being universal all over the country, we should be prepared for 1934. We will win to thank not only the voters of the district but the other voters of the district, but all that the good-thinking people co-operated with us. This should only allow the citizens more deterred by a way for the members of our group to up for 1934. We should contend until we have representative in the law-making group. I wish to thank not only the voters of the district but the voters of the wards and the citizens of the borough, but also the good-thinking people co-operated with us. This should only make the citizens more determined to pave a way for the members of our district to be involved in the good-thinking until we have a representative in the law-making body of our State.

To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN: May I on behalf of the M.A.A.C.P. Association of Colored People express to the AFRO-AMERICAN our sincere thanks for its magnificent aid given in the campaign against the re-election of Senator Roscoe C. McCullough of Ohio. In speaking tour of the State I used with great effect the excellent editorial in the AFRO-AMERICAN of October 25, "Futile Political Terror." Negro voters of Ohio overwhelmingly repudiated McCullough for his vote for Parker and helped make political history for the Negro, despite a grievance against the aggrandement above race loyalty. Perhaps the most encouraging aspect of the whole election was the unanimity with which these incumbents represented the AFRO-AMERICAN editorial played an important part in achieving this result.

Through the AFRO-AMERICAN: If you keep on advertising your Alma Mater as offering opportunities for petting parties, all of us will be able to get your will matriculate there. What is a severe minority now shall in another twenty years become an awful majority. If you keep on advertising petting parties are real, you make a statement void of truth when you say that Lincoln University is not only a disgrace to the Presbyterian Church, but a black spot on such a conclusion? Mr. Hall you be a loyal alumnus of Lincoln, but I fear your credits are in now in doubt. Putting parties: shall cease at Lincoln. They shall cease everywhere when every man and every woman reach the place where sexual differences are no longer appreciable; sexual appeals are no longer vindication. W. H.

By what logic do you come to such a conclusion? Mr. Hall you may be a loyal alumnus of Lincoln University and your credits are now in doubt before the world. Petting parties shall cease at Lincoln.

To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN: After the battle of ballots waged last Tuesday, the 4th, the lily-white Republican, defeated the 2nd, the jelly-white Democrat, at the finish; but they got what was coming to them and what they just merited. Two years ago, the 4th, the lily-white carried 202 counties in the State and had in the legislature of 1928 about 40 members. This, however, was due to the fact that President Obama won the national election, and to the defection of 70,000 Democrats, led by Senator Simmons, who were opposed to Al Smith, Romanianism and the nationalist party lines were strictly drawn and, in consequence, the Old North State returns to the Democratic fold and the "Solid South" again by the party of over 100 million any party or cause by the voters of the State. The Hon. George M. Pritchard, m. W. C. U.S. Senator, has been his best opponent over 100 million in favor of his Democratic opponent. He goes from the daily vision of Representative Debra M. Palmer to mountain home in the Blue Ridge, where his dreams may be disturbed, occasionally, by a nightmare in the form of the Negro Congression. Today lily-white can boast of carrying only six out of 100 counties and having only 8 members in the legislature of the National Republican organization, including the resident of the White House, in their efforts to build up and foster a white man's Republic and be a leader in political hook with John J. Parker, ought to be able to see the futility and the unfeasibility of their propaganda; and in their efforts to be a leader in political hook by pondering the words of the poet in the following lines: "I was so soon done for That I should not be the one What I was begun for." Two years ago, 1938, the lily-whites carried 32 of the 100 counties in the State and had in 1938 been the most popular. This, however, was due to the fact that President Hoover carried the State in the national election, and the Democratic candidate led by Senator Simmons, who were opposed to Al Smith, Romanism and Tammanyism. But in the recent campaign and in the 1938 election, and in consequence, the Old North State returns to the Democratic fold and the "Solid South" again by the largest number of any party or cause held in the State. The Hon. George M. Pritchard, white, M. C. U.S. Senator aspirant, has been retired overwhelmingly by over 100,000 majority in favor of his Democratic opponent. His vision of Representative DePriest in the halls of Congress to his little mountain home in the Blue Ridge, where his dreams may be disturbed, occasionally, by a nightmare in the form of the Negro Con- Today jlly-whites can boast of carrying only six out of 100 counties and having only 8 members in the legislature: 12 in the National Republican organization, including the resident of the White House, in their efforts to build up and foster a white man's Republican party in Jackson, with Carol Parker, the wife of Jack Parker, ought to be able to see the futility and the unfeasibility of their propaganda; and in the meantime this moral might be taken to heart by pondering the words of the poet in the fol- Greensboro, N.C. CHARLES H. MOORE. But the AFROFS Figures of 28,000 (not 24,000) Registered College Students of the N. Y. A. University. Mr. Schuyler's Figures Below do not indicate 54,200 Voters but Votes. Each Person Voted To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN: Concerning your recent editorial stating that Negro registration is greater in Baltimore than in Greenwich Village and that the registration at 37,400 and the letter at 24,000, may I call attention to the fact that there is no way of ascertaining how many Negro registered voters there are in Greenwich Village, Negroes live from Greenwich Village to 165th Street. There are settlements of considerable size, and the number of Negroes living on the Harlem River on the West Side and around 99th and 114th to the Harlem River on the East Side of 58th Avenue. In all of these districts except the Harlem River, Negroes are with white residents. Since registered voters are not designated by so-called race here, it is manifestly impossible to tell how many Negroes live in the other Assembly and Adherent districts. In Bronx Borough, Queen's Borough, King's Borough and even in Richmond Borough, populations but largely mixed in with whites. This is particularly true in the Bronx and King's (Brooklyn). Enthusiasm in many of these Negroes are registered voters. Why, we won't even know how many live in these sections of New York City that are not Negroes. But concerning the figure you quoted as representing the Negro registration in New York City, it is interesting to note that the District District which is almost solidly black (to use a convenient though inaccurate term), the vote was as follows: Concerning your recent editorial stating that Negro registration is greater in Baltimore than in New York City, and setting the record high at 600,000 will all attention to the fact that there is no way of ascertaining how many Negro registered voters there are in Manhattan. In Manhattan Borough, Negroes live from Greenwich Village to 185th Street. There are settlements of: 16th and 17th Avenue, 62nd and 10th and 11th to the Harlem River on the West Side and around 99th and from 14th to the Harlem River on the East Side, 18th and 21st Assembly districts, they are mixed with white residents. Since registered voters are not designated to live in the 18th and 21st Assembly districts, they are in the other Assembly and Aldermand districts. In New Borough, Queen's Borough, King's Borough and even in Richmond Borough of New York City there are sizeable Negro populations but largely unregistered. In the Bronx and King's Brooklyn, Enstein himself could have no way of knowing how many of these Negroes are registered but largely unregistered. In many sections of New York City until the census reports are published, it is interesting to note that in the recent campaign for judges in the black (to use a convenient though inaccurate term), the vote was as follows: Toney, (Dem.) ..... 14,893 Watson, (Dem.) ..... 14,812 Rivers, (Rep.) ..... 13,274 Hawkins, (Rep.) ..... 12,330 Total .....54,209 Thus, you see how much you were out of the way (almost 100 per cent.) for just this one district, which is St. Nicholas Street, Fifth Avenue, 110th Street and 155th Street. Outside of this district live almost 100,000 Negroes by conservatism. Incidentally, you can see how the voters of St. Paul's and Plain Park, Mr. Hoover et al. district, elected two Democratic municipal judges who will sit for ten years in the State legislature. Most of them are Democratic Assemblymen to the State legislature. Evidently the Negro voters in Harlem are not disturbed, particularly when there are 2,300 of them employed by the Tammy administration. **GEORGE S. SCHUYLER.** 321 Edgecombe-av., New York. Thus, you can see how much you were out, the way (almost 100 per cent). for just this one district of New York City the boundaries of which are St. Nicholas Avenue, Fifth Avenue, 110th Street and 155th Street. Outside of the district live almost 100,000 Negroes by conservative Incidentally, you can see how the voters of black Harlem have repudiated the Republican Party, Mr. McCain, the Democratic municipal judges who will sit for ten years at a yearly salary of $12,000 each and also two Democratic Assemblymen to the state legislature. The state legislature not disturbed about charges of Tammany corruption, particularly when there are 2,000 of them employed by the Tammany administration. **GEORGE S. SOHYLER.** 321 Edgecombe-av., New York. **Marcine Calway Blames Office-Holders for Loss of Fourth District by Republican Party. Cities Faint that Five Precincts of Sixteenth Ward Have Nearest as Many Voters as Fourteenth or Seventh.** To the Editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN: The Fourth District is naturally Republican. There are half as many Republican on the books, and as there are Republican on the books. Who should be the one to see that these people should be the one to see the duty of every Republican to see it, but in the final analysis the people who should be the most interested are the people who receive the most benefit from the work of the District. The Fourth District has as many, if not more office-holders in this Republican administration, as there are in the three Councilmen, three Assistant City Solicitors, one Deputy City Solicitor, Chief Engineer, head of the Bureau of the Clerks, three Clerks in the Appeal Tax Court, and non-payment offices such as members of the Charity Board, Jail Board, Zoning Commis- I wish to call your attention to one fact, the Seventeenth Ward is a heavy Republican ward, the Seventeenth Ward has about 16 precincts that are practically all colored, and yet the 16th ward in five precincts has nearly as many registered voters as either thirteenth or the Seventeenth Ward. There is a reason for this, if there is anyone who wishes to answer the question, the responsibility is here and I am placing it where it belongs, regardless of what anyone may say, the people who are the residents are the ones upon whom the responsibility lies. The Democratic landslide in Maryland and all over the country, was due to the unemployment rate, was charged up to the national administration. CHIPS FROM THE QUARRY The Proofreader Talks Occasionally time will permit—or at any time, even if there are errors that come to attention. One sheet lies before me and I made the same day, perhaps the same hour. Here they are, the corpse, the pact (pack) of manacles, "shrive (shrive) chair," "pillows (pillars) of the church;" "forcefully (forcibly) to die." These errors would generally be referred to as mis-spellings, but actually they are not—the wrong words are used. Why? The answer has already been indicated—hasty, careless in imprecision, with it, of course, slimmed pronunciation. One curious matter appertains to this particular list—in two cases the word more difficult to pronounce is used in the same way. On another sheet are noted a few which are more difficult—actual misspelling (fusilade) or stalenage (stabilize). Yet here mispronunciation is the fault also. On another sheet are these: "mimilee" for "mantelal" "hail" for "hale"—due to inattentive reading or the reading of poorly proof-read matter. Regarding this last error, a personal experience may be permitted. In my home city the court reporter—and there not much else localized—has been accused of persons "hailed in court," meaning "haled into court." I wrote to the editor three or four times, calling attention to the need—due to reporter, copyeditor, or proofreader—there was a chance to the correct phrase. However, personal experience the child did not realize the error was a mis-spelling, not a wrong word, for recently such statements as this appear "He haled a passing knife." It is highly important to know (KNOW) whether your error is a mis-spelling or a wrong word. The child was worse than amusement, but the latter invites derision. In the minds of those who are properly trained. Mt. Vernon The writer of sidewalk sketches in the Alexandra (Va.) Gazette says: There is a growing sentiment in the city that public spaces are open opened free to the public but maintained by the general government. It can be made from the dedication of new in charge of this national shrine. It has also been suggested to the public Sunday in order that many who cannot visit the tomb of Washington on Monday, or the anniversary of its do so on a Sunday. Representative Ali T. Treadway, of the city, himself in this movement and is daily receiving letters from all parts of the United States, has been appointed to his efforts to have the property purchased by the government and thrown open to the public for admission to the grounds. It seems hardly possible that Congress, after spending four and a half million dollars to the Mt. Vernon (to be completed by 1832), will permit the "ladies" association, which which could be sent to the public, to continue to charge the public 25 cents per to enter the grounds—something closely related. Maybe also Congressman Treadway will see to it that Jim Crow is abolished there. Prior to the General Emancipation (From a War Time Newsman) NEW ORLEANS, La. Oct. 1, 1862. The mission is the fact that a few days ago a "delegation of slaves" belonging to Mauritius planted the parts of St. Bernard below the city, called to see G. Shenipley and asked as governor of the state. The request was granted and these men informed the governor of freedom. They said their fellow-servants in other places were all leaving their masters and that they were in a condition, but that it was not clear to their minds how was the best way to do it. So said, however, that they did not intend to labor much if they could help it without their requests and protests by asking that if they remained peaceably at home, they were secured to them for their services. General Shipper treated the matriarch after conferring with General Butler. permission was granted to these women, who consented to work, not as slaves but as bred men. Cats are Color-Blind You know there's an old popular belief that cats can see much better in pitch darkness than man or dog, and much more much mooey. What enables Pussy to get about so well in the dark is the fact that she wears whiskers. She feels her way about the dark, but no matter how bright a cat's eyes may shine in the dark it's always dusk to members of the feline family. Dr. George K. Tebbys, a professor at University, who has been studying Tabbys and Persians for a number of years, says all cats live in a colder, toneless old world. In other words, cats are always in a world like our own dusk or twilight. The Pathfinder.

This will be just the thing to read in a miniature automobile while on your way to a miniature golf course. A vest pocket newspaper will come in handy because the newspaper will wrap up the size of park chops they give you nowadays in butcher shops. It will be mighty annoying to get your newspaper lost among your postage stamps and matches in your pockets. It will also cause a lot of trouble when you think you are handling somebody a part of your panner and find you have them a ten dollar bill by mistake. It will look mighty funny to see a great newspaper sending out about 10000 circulation in a basket. With papers so small, the only people who can get jobs on the editorial staff would be midges. People who read tablabs already have dwarfed minds, so they will be right in line for the small papers. Instead of using the honor system recess the paper menu will be sold in chening gum machines. If papers are made as small as an envelope they will be impossible to carry the pictures of fat people any more. This will be good because then all the society dames will have to reduce in order to fit into a column of space. A woman with a double chin will have to be continued on another page. The old rao man will have to buy old newspapers by the ounce instead of the pound. Of course, it will cause a lot of time and money to be used to read over your shoulder on the street car has to get closer and starts reading under your nose. With miniature newspapers all over the country, people who used to have hard paper putting their own paper will find it a "small" item. If the press is supposed to be the voice of the people miniature newspapers will reduce it to a whisper. Instead of screening headlines the banner lines on tiny dailies will just be a squawk. Damphool "Movements" Bs. FILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press, "A newspaper man has his own movement called 'The American Freedom's National Memorial to Abuham Lincoln.' This sounds pleasant, especially the "Freedmen-Lincoln" part of it. But when you examine the proposition, in common sense it is just another damphelp "movement"—to move a few cents out of some ill-guarded pockets, and maybe, to move someone towards jail for the mails carlessly.") See the headquarters of this proposal is Amarillo, Texas, wherever that is. They propose to erect a memorial building, with colonnes and a great auditorium, to the "Emancipator," in Washington. The building is to be 164 feet wide and 171 feet high; and as it is to be ten-sided, it will have "departments in the building" of 500. The thing would equal a vast building fifteen stories in height. Now, here's where the plain damphailhousen comes in. They propose to build a building in one dollar membership and one-dollar membership, three dollars here and one dollar there. The three-dollar member is entitled to a "life member" a, pins, a dollar into a memorial book; and the one-dollar member is to have all of these things "except the certificate." Whowere heard of raising money for the building in these days by three-dollar and one-dollar purchases of pins and certificates? By the time the pins, certificates and other paper items are purchased, clerks are fed, there will not be enough left out of three dollars to pay for the stationery and the stamps and advertising and not half enough for defending charges of fraud, if any. This will be like starting a lake in the Rocky Mountains by bringing water from the Gull of Mexico to the summit of Pike's Peak: first one thimbleful, then three thimblefuls, then another thimbleful, then another thimblefuls; and so on to eternity or unit, the promoters are put into tilt or the madhouse.

Ave. Street. 360 Bt, Nicholas Avenue, New York The Nation's Biggest All-Negro Weekly DAY BY DAY By WILLIAM N. JONES LEIGH WHIPPER and AUBREY LYLES, well known high lights in the theatrical world, came to the FARO Club to observe other things, started out to "board the lion in his dier" by treating the FARO Club to a caustic criticism of the theatrical criticisms of the Negro press. Both of these men complain that the theatrical critics are not constructive in that they either try to cover up faults in shows because eof friendships or they do not indicate what the public wants by intelligent suggestions. Whigger and Mr. Lyles may be right, but what will interest most people was their admission that whites, not Negroes, are the chief factors in deciding what the Negro shall do on the stage. Now time this column has been pointing out that the conscious efforts of most creators in the various fields of art and literature to break into white acclaim, while laudable, was having a profound effect upon both Negro art匠 The trouble, Mr. Whipper points out, is that Negro patrons not only fail to provide support for the performances generally not apt to place their approval upon anything which has not already been acclaimed by the whites. This, he says, is the reason that Negro patrons to mould his production to fit into the sentiments of the other group. If you consider the amount of money we spend on amusement parks, the talent, so say nothing of the richest field of artistic background, and the only wholly unexplored one in America today, you cannot afford to pay for the Lyles that it is a shame that we do not have our own theaters and our own publishing concerns to produce our plays, music and illusions that believe they should be produced. Until this is done, we cannot complain that our actors and writers cater to the whims of the --- AS A COLUMNIST I am somewhat worried about an editorial writer on that excellent newspaper, the Norfolk Journal and newspaper, Gordon Hancock, an editorial editor on Negro columnists. I have no objection to his selection of Kelly Miller, my old schoolmate, Gordon Hancock, and I have made any contribution to constructive thinking, at least from the standpoint of the Journal and Guide, but what worries me is his statement that most of columnists have made an obsession of atheism, socialism, bolshevism, political and social idealism and academic radicalism not conformable with any practical living, to say the least of practice. That an editorial writer on the Journal and Guide regards writings on such subjects as socialism, communism, political and social radicalism, of his practice of journalism, is disturbing, to say the least. That he takes the position that writing about anything which is affecting human action, a n d a human action, is a great source of sad commentary on his idea of practical journalism. Modern newspapers must not only deal with this world as it is, it must also deal with it in terms of what it is to become. The editorial writer or columnist who has not delved far into socialism, which is sweeping Europe, or Communism, which is sweeping the world, must be sweeping its way through China and other sections of the world, or who feels that conditions here in America are such that no writer can suggest a more idealistic approach, must have a very erotic mind. Yes, some of us must think radically, not in the spirit of the wise-crack, but with an idea of constructive change. Week after week, educators bring to some big section of the world a new idea in human relations. As we write this Monday morning, the papers heralded by our educators begin a Socialist majority to its legislative body. Next year it may be America; who knows? Anyway, why can't we write and think about it? We write newspaper editors like other leaders, who would content themselves with any status quo, whether it was the day when kings held the power of life or death over human beings; when slaves were sold as human cattle, where slaves were sold as human cattle, and bought governments, when men lynched their fellow men in racial outbreaks. On the other hand, there are writers and leaders who hurt themselves against the status quo to create a more idolathetic state of existence. Which, we ask, renders a more practical service? One thing we know, and the Journal and Guide he reflects; that the most of the men and women the human race has preserved, in marble and bronze, have been of this radical type, even Abraham Lincoln, and whom we call the Father of this Country, George Washington.

ANSWERS BY MARY HINES HALL. (For the Associated Negro Press) All Women Look Alike. No Pork Eaters. Men Kine Each Other. Women Kine Feet of Husbands. Every body Gets Drunk at the Royal Feast. It is very doubtful that there would have been a Menelik of Ethiopia from the Italians if the Queen of Sheba, in making her hi- srtitude, had been the shabby garb of her descendants. The Jewish King, ardent woer of four hundred wives and seven men, the "dark but comely" queen of Ethiopians and one of the results of the visit was a son born to the que of whom Sojourn the father. But a best Abyssinian not so attractive any more. It is pathetic but true that in Ethiopia today it is a sign of woe to clean body, gets drunk at the sign of virtue to revel in dirt. All Women Look Alike Addis Ababa is one city where it is difficult to tell the younger women from those who have been good students or good faces. All the women wear the long trailing* dresses, even the young girls. Many of them wear a garment that covers their legs and washes it, and they can understand why *fergencies chika chika* (foreigners get angry) when Ethiopians lean over them or stand to Heap Many Servents Mules are used mostly by the natives for traveling. They sellelm ride some of the best horses in the world are bred. Men and women ride the mules and slave along. These servants and slaves completely surround the rider, every carriage and slave available. This vintage, the rider should decide he is a hurry and speeds his animal up, there is no chance for him to leave his retainers because. The rider should be tired they may be and if a stranger happens to be in the way, he must break down. Nobody Works The average native dass no need of work, and those who want to work in the kitchen are called "gruagues." If you ary a package, they will grunt. When a native goes to buy anything he always takes a servant along, and he buys the supplies, but he thinks that it llowers him to carry even this small article. He averages native home. It is done on the floor, sitting—cooking, entertaining, and sewing. He grinds and rinses (preferably beef with plant of red pepper) are the children of rich natives live above the average. Women's Faces Hidden The Ethiopian women of importance, or "big ladies," as they themselves, wear gloves covering the hess and face, with just a peep hole for the eyes, for madame does not ordinary people to look her in the Men Kiss Each Other Two men will kiss each other a two women - soldier men and a teenager. These do not show their affection in public. The men, as a rule, are very close to each other, and they profess affection to one another. It is sometimes amusing to see two men kiss the school girls, or two who meet each other and must kiss on each check. It is also people of unequal standing. The inferior kisses the others set. Women, as a person is buried the same day he dies unless he dies during the night; then he dies. When death occurs, all the friends and relatives who are near come immediately and meanly. They be heard for miles. No Pork Eaten Beef and mutton are the child meats eaten by the Ethiopians and these are preferred raw. Abyssal army was once destroyed by an enemy which was able to locate it at night from the first use. Abyssal Ethiopians consider pork unit to eat. At different times of the year the king gives a feast. Everybody gets drunk, pardens, priests, big men and lads.

J. JONES, Prop. Sidetracking of Bragg Shows How Strong Combination Really Was. G.O.P. DIFFERENT Party Both Disorganized and Gossip. R. BENZI B. LEMUZ BY RIENZI B. LEMUY NEW YORK. — It made no difference to the 'bulk of Harlem coloured folks which two Negro lawyers were elected justices of their New 10th District municipality, and they will have their court and their $22,000 justices on the bench after next New Year's Day. Twas a bitter pill, however, for many to have to swallow; and theyre by no means all Republicans either. All during the campaign certain Democrats were wielding public candidates, Alderman Hawens and ex-Assemblyman Rivers, and win the municipal judicial posts. Such a result, they opined, would destroy the leadership, F. dinand Q. Mason, the United National Democracy, and the G-Service Commissioner. The disgruntled Democrats of Harlem assert that Morton's is a "jim crow" leadership, that he is a "pickee" of John F. Kline, many Hall leaders, and that the Negro should select their own lead- N partisan Committee Effective Whatever the merit of their contents, Con issuerion Morton has demonstrated that he is Like the top chieftain in Four- north Street. Mr. Morton does not write his stansmanship in cigar stores, newspapers, and on street corners, a la . . . the memorial H. sls in South Street Avenue head- ing and "generals" the works. Morton displayed political sagacity when he created a non-partisan committee to work for the election of the successful judicial candidates. Justice H. sls in South Street Avenue "covered" the activities of certain disgruntled but by no means dispised Republicans, and permitted service of others whose bread and meat connections would be political risk. This ion- nous business proved practicable and efficacious. Bragg Sidetracked Morton again demonstrated his leadership when he he "sidetracked Harry Harris and the lawmen and in the 21st and gave the legislative nomination to a white Democrat, who won over his colored Democratic judicial nominees with And to show what sort of discipline prevails in the Morton organization, it is here cited how Harry Bragg said "Klismet," who set temporarily for the good of the case. In contrast, every Republican lawyer who aspired to be municipal justice and didn't get the designation either ran independently in the primaries or moved to Morton's republican coupling. Tammany Helped When the last-minute attempt was made to prevent the municipal court election by court order, it was said, and said way above a plea to prevent the election of the sure-to-win Republicans and thus leave vacancies until after January 1 for the Democratic mayor to fill the vacant Democratic appointee, that was easily way to get them on the bench. And when the election was ordered by the Court of Appeals the Republicans were "cooked out" by the Court; but they lost the court at the polls, and Tammany's leaders (white) got out their voters 'and helped Morton to a political achievement — not a race victory!'

BY VOTERS Harlem Election of Democ cratic Judges Shows Group is Dissatisfied. NEW LEADERS SEEN Independents Gaining, says James C. Thomas. NEW YORK.-Election of Democratic candidates for justices of the Municipal Court in Harlem indicates that the Negro is dissatisfied with his political fortune in the city, and a statement Wednesday by James C. Thomas, former assistant United States attorney under President Coolidge, resigned his office to support Governor Alfred E. Smith in the Presidential election of 1928. "By the election of two Negroes, Charles E. Toney and James S. Watson, to the Municipal Court bench of the City of New York on a Democratic ticket, at a salary of $12,000 a year for a period of five years, a new page has been written in the history of the Negro in America. Unusual Situation "The Democratic candidates for judge in an entirely colored district defeated their Republican opponents Francis E. Riordan and John 2000 votes. This is indeed an unusual situation and confirms my belief that the Negro in the United States is dissatisfied with his political fortune under the Republican administration, from pillar to post, publicly lynched and burned without even a protest by the Republican administration. He has been denounced recognition when consequential appointments were made, and he have not been conserved. His Gold Star mothers and widows were discouraged by the administration when they were sent to Europe on a cattle ship. The Republican administration to thrust Judge Parker on the Negro and make him a Supreme Court judge; the Haitian commission situation, and the administration to make the South 'lily white; are only some of the instances that have caused the Negro to break away from his religious allegiance to the Republican party and cause him to divide his political allegiance. for demonstration." New Leadership "Negro leadership which fails to recognize these important facts is on the downward trend, and I predict that in the next decade a decent leadership will spring up all over this country which will result in a fuller realization for the Negro of every political and civil position," he said. Mr. Thomas has been invited to Washington by Jouett Shouse, chairman of the Democratic national convention to come a second to convert colored voters to the Democratic faith.

MARGOLD NAMED AS THE NAACP LEGAL ADVISOR Ex-Harvard Professor to Head National Civil Rights Campaign. FUND TO ASSIST Expert Aide Soon to be Named. NEW YORK—Nathan R. Margold, former assistant U.S. Attorney in New York, and legal advisor on Indian Affairs to the Institute for Government Research, has been retained by t he N.A.A.C.P. to direct a nation-wide legal campaign designed to procure and safeguard full civil rights for American Negroes, it was announced last week. Concurrent with the legal campaign, will be one of the educational surveys, to be directed by an expert whose name will be made public at a later date. The campaign is to be financed by an appropriation made to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People by the American Fund for Public Service, known as the Garland Fund, and is to cover the southern states, inequalities in educational opportunities and appropriations, denial of equal service on railroad, bus systems and other forms of transportation, and other forms of discrimination based upon color and violating constitutional provisions. In formulating and carrying on the campaign Mr. Margold will work with the association's national committee of which Arthur B. Spingar of New York, is chairman and whose membership includes Clarence Darrow, Professor Felix Frankfort, of the Harvard Law School; T. G. Nutter, of Charlesland, West Virginia, and James Marshall, Herbert K. Stockton, of Charlesland H. Studin, all of New York. Six Victories The N.A.A.C.P. has a record of six victories before the United States Supreme Court on fundamental issues involving civil rights and is now contesting the "white primary" system by which Negroes are sought to be excluded from primary elections in some states. :Taught at Harvard Mr. Margold, after his graduation from the Harvard Law School, where he was an editor of the Law Review and held a Langdell Fellowship, served as Assistant U. S. Attorney for the State of New York in 1925 to 1927. He has taught at the Harvard Law School, served as special counsel to the New York Transit Commission in the Interborough fare litigation, successfully represented Mexico in punishments been active in the settlement of Indain claims. Walter White Speaks In announcing the campaign, Walter White, acting secretary of the association, said: Twenty-one years of attack upon unconstitutional discrimination practised against Negros in America, have convinced the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that the time has come for a comprehensive legal plan, for a frontal attack upon the evil of Jim Crow. The American Fund for Public Service, convinced of "feasibility and necessity for such a legal campaign, has made available to the Advancement Association a fund for this purpose. "Probably this campaign now undertaken by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will be one of the most comprehensive ever formulated in behalf of the civil rights of colored Americans. On it we have already consulted and have the advice and counsel of leading Americans, northern and southern, while and colored, men and women, educators, philanthropists, financiers, labors, leaders, in fact, of persons in all walks of life."

VETERAN DEMOCRAT IS NOW DEPUTY SHERIFF VETERAN DEMOCRAT IS NOW DEPUTY SHERIFF NEW YORK. — Among the evolutionary changes in the attitude of Negroes voters, to the Democratic party expressed in local elections in 2012, was responding to the long fight of William Banks, who has recently been appointed special deputy sheriff on the staff of the county sheriff, Thomas Fayre. Mr. Banks, who is president of the Golden Democratic Club, entered the ranks of this party when it was considered a disgrace to be a Democrat, but has lived to see leading churches of the city open their doors to this party. District Leader The new deputy resides in the Nineteenth Assembly District where he has been the Democratic leader for the past ten years. His appointment to the Sheriff's office occurred on October 21. The Nineteenth District has here-to-fore been Harlem's Republican stronghold. The appointment of Mr. Banks considerably strengthens Democratic influence in this district. It is his first political appointment, and Mr. Banks is the only Negro holding the position of special deputy sheriff in New York County. Mr. Banks was born in Richmond, Vc., August 8, 1873, and came to New York about the year 1802, when he started working in a barber shop at 202 West 37th Street, where he remained for a period of three years. During the next two years, he entered business at two downtown hotels, the St. Lorenz and the Majestic, and also at the Scarborough Hotel at Long Branch, N.J. Until about 1915 he resided at 206 West 37th Street, and was among the last of the Negro business men to move to Helem, from the downtown section.

Comedian to Forsake Bright Lights After Thirty Years on Stage. It’s a long jump from the Great White Way, the dazzling backstage life of a famous funny man in musical comedies to the drabness of a plantation at the ends of the earth on the dark continent, but Aubrey Lyles, star of many Broadway shows, will make that jump. Already the little man, who has made millions laugh, is packed up that sense of humor of his and traveled across the great Atlantic to repatriate an estate for himself and established an estate for himself and his family. S. "While my friends thought I was wasting my money in fast living," excited the comedian, "I was looking far ahead of them all. Land is the one thing that the African has plenty of and you can buy it for a song. There is no telling what there is on your land, what there is in your jungle, what there is under your land." "Liberia is a great undeveloped country. I may own some lions, tigers or elephants in my back yard. There may be gold and some coins under my house. Who can tell?" he asked in that quaint way of his. Boyhood Dream Just why Mr. Lyles choose Africa as his adopted home, he does not say other than he is intensely interested in his own race, Africa, of all places, and Liberia in particular, seemed to offer that outlet from prejudice and proscription that his rebellious soul has cried out for since Born in the Southland where heasted early, of the bitterness that THE BROADWAY DANCE COMPANY Mr. Lyles, How Could You? AFTER THIRTY YEARS of living among beautiful chorus girls like those above, how can the stage comedian forsake it all for the wilds of Africa? the shackles of color forced him to endure, one of his great longings that has made him the land of his forefathers and help in the development of a haven in the land of his nativity. "I may never realize th' dream," he said in his dressing room the other day. "I hope that my son or his son will be a force in Liberia." They stick together for common interest, he said. He said that the natives are called the Gregory Bush. Here girls are placed at an early age and trained to take their places in life. When they leave they know how to cook how to care for the sick, keep theiruts and how to be wives and mothers. Tales wea: a symbol around Keen Sense of Humor Mr. Lyle's keen sense of humor, which has made many forget their cares and troubles, is his greatest asset as he approaches his new land of promise. He learns to over there feeling that because you have lived in the greatest: civilized country; on earth that you are better than they are," he mused. "You've got to come right down to earth and realize that in Africa th: youngest African nation, with instincts that we have lost by transmigration. A 12-year-old boy can tell you by the looks of the foliage whether an animal has passed through, and whether he is coming back. He knows the twig and plant. He knows Africa. Developed Aristotleacy "People try to give the impression that the African is lazy, but he is not. The American-Liberian is lazy. He is so lazy that if he walks down the street with an umbrella he has a little native boy carry the umbrella and move up and down covered up; them by their parents. "The former American slaves went back there and worked and the country would have made great progress had they not stolen the idea from the Southern white planter that their children should be aristocratize the present society, though with the idea that they are superior to the natives and want to be catered to. Trained for Motherhood They stick together for common interest, he said. The school of the natives is called the Gregory Bush. Here girls are asked to take their places and are trained to take their places in life. When they leave they know how to cook, how to care for the sick, keep their huts and how to be wives and mothers. These girls wea: a symbol around their necks which stands for purity. Nobody who knows Africa will harm a girl* of the Gregory Bush. The penalty is death and it is always enforceable. They are placed in the Devil Bush where they receive their early training. Distance Means Nothing Distance or time means nothing to the African. He will invite you to his home which may be a three-dv walk and expect you to be there. Mr. Lyles cited the story of the native boy who came past his home with four eggs to sell. He asked for the eggs" asked the comedian. "Four cents, four cents, four cents, four cents," was the reply. If there had been three dozen he would have listed each one. "I'll give you three cents, three cents, three cents, three cents," the refused the offer and walked thirty-odd miles to town where he could get his price. Awaits Improvements Mr. Lyles said that he returned to America because sanitation facilities were not to the liking of his family, and he did not care to have them live there until plans which underway in Monrovia are completed. He is strongly 'in' favor of the policies of Thomas J. R. Faukner and his party, and feels that much good will be accomplished when they are given a more powerful grip on the reins of government. He is 'in' appealing, in "Runnin' De. Town," in which he is the principal star.

"HOLLYWOOD REVUE NOT UP TO SCRATCH "HOLLYWOOD REVUE NOT UP TO SCRATCH D.C. Society Show Falls Below Last Year's Offering. WASHINGTON, D.C.—A very amateurish show, "The Hollywood Revue," was presented by the Tuesday Evening Club of Social Workers, at the Lincoln Colonnade last Friday night. In contrast with the 1929 revue, the 1930 show was crude. It lacked talent. The 1929 revue was credible with an abundance of talent. The cause for this difference in the revues is traceable to the umbrage which the club affected because Miss J. Adrienne Marshall reproduced the pageant, "The Wedding of the Painted Doll," at a one-night cabaret at the Masonic Temple last New Year's Ill Feeling Miss Marshall had directed the pageant and staged the dances. She was approached by rival dance promoters for a reproduction of the test dance. Conrad's offer and staged the number for him. The Tuesday Evening Club in a signed statement disavowed its connection with the affair. It apparently had not gotten over its ill-feeling when rehearsals were begun for the event. Miss Marshall Recruited The services of Miss Marshall were to be dispensed with. Dr. Clara S. Tallaterfo, president of the Tuesday Evening Club, sought talented and pretty sub-dresses, debs and junior matrons to take part in the 1930 revue. She was especially anxious to secure a personate reigning motion picture stars. But one after another refused until she had to take whomever she could get. When it became apparent that the revue was not shaping up, she stage the dance and direct the pageant. "The Hollywood Revue." With only two weeks left for rehearsals MADNESS MANHATTAN Harlem has a new music school, which was formally opened on Sunday afternoon, November 2. It is known as the Jarahal School of Music, being named after one of its sponsors, who happens to be the famous female impersonator known by Misty Hopkins, drawn his other associates, in the management of this school, from the stage and church. The very responsible position of director of the school has been assumed by Misty Hopkins, with the beautiful voice whose reputation 'scooted to great heights in "Runnin' Wild." Working with Mr. Jarahal and Miss Hughes, to make the new institutional unit, Thomas R. Burwell can sign D.D. behind his name! Miss Elizabeth Lobgan, organist at St. Cyprusian F.E. Church, Evelyn Burwell, who leads the Hall Johnson Choir in "The Green Pastures" is secretary, and Elain Dotson will I learned for the first time that "Jarahal's" name is really a connotation of his own, which is jara C Hall.

We are mentioning this here because this show with Chick Sales, otherwise known as the Specialist, was Negotiated led by Louis Deppe, with other well-known singers, including Bell and George McLean.

"For thirty years I've been up and down this country, dancing for a living, and one night while on the train, just put out of Washington, we patched the Howard's team at night. We took two colesk and the dormitories were darkened and quiet. That is, all except one little room near the roof.

GRAND Charity Ball ONLY HANDFUL ATTEND THIRD MEMORIAL Only three short years have passed since Flo Mills, the original little "Blackbird," folded her weary wings and sang no more, but already that name that shone brighter than all the rest on Broadway is almost forgotten. Did the Songs Lie? A FLORENCE MILLS Have the songs written in memory of Flo Mills which said, "You have gone but we will not forget you," already been proved false? Ever, Zew Leslie himself, the man who made a fortune off of the voice which rang around the world, has gone complacently on his way. He, too, has allowed the memory of his trekking star to pass into oblivion. This year's edition of "Blackbirds" makes no allusion to the departed spirit which will ever hover over the revue she made famous. Flo Mills is forgotten by those who knew her best. One of the most striking scenes of the last edition of "Blackbirds" was the scene in which Aida Ward, glad in the male habiliments that her predecessor made famous, strutted across the stage as heads were bowed in reverence for the departed star. Broadway itself felt the sol-emity of this impersonation. For a moment, Flo Mills was back, back among the friends she knew and loved so well. Her very presence could be felt, but only a fleeting moment, then she was gone. There are no such scenes in Mr. Leslie's "Blackbirds" this season. Cut Scene Out There was such a scene when the show was first opened on the road, and the draped dress was displayed draped in mourning on one side of the stage and another picture of the late George Walker, who the whole paid homage to the failing stars in the finale, but when the show reached Broadway this scene it was too sorrowful. Mr. Leslie decided, he put aside Flo Mills.

"Blackbirds" became a hit. Many Celebrities Never before in the history of the revue has Mr. Leslie corralled so many finished performers under one banner. Hitherto, he has assembled casts of practically unknown actor Born in a Song "Blackbirds," the revue which has made many celebrities in subsequent years, had its inception in a song popularized by the late star in one of Broadway's most famous shows. In this vehicle she sang "I'm a Little Blackbird, Looking for a Bluebird, Too." The sentiment and the appeal in what she put across across country, in the form of everyday humming it. There was little wonder when Mr. Leslie wanted a name for his new revue that he selected "Blackbirds," because Floyd had minds of the nation in a receptive The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, November 15, 1930 mood. "Blackbirds" became a hit. Many Celebrities Never before in the history of the revue has Mr. Leslie corralled so many finished performers under one banner. Hitherto, he has assembled casts of practically unknown actors and their present day fame is due to their having appeared in this revue. This year's aggregation, on the other hand, has achieved fame in our own right. Elie Wren is not unknown to Broadway, having appeared there in her own show, "Africana." Flournoy Miller's name has sparked in many successes and in wavillede. Buck Bolehole has the distinction of having been held over two consecutive weeks at the Palace which is an accomplishment for any performer. Buck Bolehole's scores have been the making of several Broadway hits, and when Maurice Chevallier, the great She Was Stricken This pretty soubrette, who impersonated the late Florence Mills in the last edition of "Blackbirds," was, like her predecessor, struck up a friendship time it was thought she would go into decline, but she is now well again.

SHOW FOLK ENTERTAIN AFRO STAFF SATURDAY Whipper and Lyles Rap Theatrical Critic's Review of Show. Lyles Hates Race Songs Because of Associations. With a severe rebuke for the AFRO theatrical scripte and for Negro newspapers in general, alternated with the most delightful and harmonious singing of spirituals and popular airy by the largest chorus ever to sing at the AFRO, members of "Running de Town," entertained the AFRO Club Saturday. Leigh Whipner, the crab man, in the show, who introduced the company, described "How he and his wife had found the Rev. and Mrs. Charles W. Baldwin, through the columns of the AFRO. He emphasized the fact that criticism of a show doesn't mean anything if a town does not support a show. Baltimore is rapidly, becoming a "Dog town," meaning town which is so poor meaning speaking, that it is used for the op-ed front of shows. Donald Kirkley, white, who gave him some helpful criticism of the show, has called attention to the fact that nine shows have opened in this city during the year. Calls Papers Weekly Reminders Aubrey Lyles, producer of the show, introduced by Mr. Whipper, made a series of papers, classing them as weekly bulletins, which will never be effective as weapons to increase political and industrial opportunities for the Negro until they do become dailies. The newspaper is the greatest weapon in the Negro world, which Mr. Arthur Brishane makes a statement against you on Wednesday morning, you can't wait until next Saturday to answer him. The world will have forgotten what he said by that time. "You will have a newspaper," he said, a daily newspaper, not these weekly bulletins—because I: I'm going to force you to have them," declared Mr. Lyles. A few dollars before election, and afterward a job or two, a few cigars and some money, you must make political interest in the Negro at present, he continued. Negros can elect the next president if they get together, but there are only two things a Negro thinks he to be: a Baptist and a Democrat, you keep you on them 365 days a year, you can go them together. Hates Spirituals Following the singing of "Done Sei My Spirit Free," directed by Stanley Bennett, musical director of the play, Mr. Lyles declared his hatred of spirituals because of the unpleasant associations connected with them. "The white man enjoys the spiritual," he said, "because he can he back, close his eyes and see his grandfather bring the lash down on my grandfather's back. "He can he grandmother off into the woods my grandmother more children than his Sophie can. They don't mean a _____ to me. My own people force me to have them in my show. If they supported my show so that I would not need to have them, my people would not have one." Visited Africa Having recently returned from Africa, where he has a plantation; Mr. Lyles, made a few comments on that land and its people. wondered wonderfully, but the Nile that thinks himself superior to Africans should not go there. He carried with him a walking stick carved from native war and headed with genuine ivory made by an African boy who could not speak English. Musical Numbers Score Other musical numbers scored by the company were: spiritual, Want, "Miss My Ollie," led by Miss Steen, Miss Ollie, Perkins led the singing of "Got My 'Ligton On.' "Josephine," one of the hits of the show, also gained much applause as by George Dixon. Miss Muru Rahn sang "My Desire." Louis蓝 sang "My Georgia Land." by the outbeat, gained more rounds of applause. Other members of the company introduced were Misses Maitland and Wheeldin, only licensed women boxers in the country, Miss Pauline Jackson, Baltimore, who holds several swimming records, J. C. Johnson, composer of the musical scores, and Miss Pearl Wright, pianist.

Philly Mirror As to the performance of "A Riot of Fun" at the Standard, the Whitman Sisters' art does not quite shed its faults, but they seem to give the upper hand.

Don't make up your mind till you see this entrancing story of three department store girls who travel three different roads to romance! It's gorgeous, it's stimulating, it's tremendous! By BEDA JEFFERS It may be "if" or luck, or both, if you wish; but in the centers of Europe's most sophisticated life, it takes more than a mere stroke of dame fortune to call forth the plaudits of the world's most blaise audiences. Nonsequently, Josephine Baker, Paul Robeson, Holt Ray, Noble Sisle and many others must be "producing the goods." Theatrically speaking the center of the stage for the Negro has moved from New York and Chicago to Paris, Berlin and London! Josephine Baker took the famous "Charleston" and "Black Bottom" and made them the national dances of Europe. Her rotating shoulders and hands were down her the queen of craziest and hottest rhythm ever seen in Sunny Spain or romantic Italy. She is still the toast of the continent and it has been said that she was the greatest drawing card in the old world. Tall and slender, a tearing, tantalizing brown, she has swept the men completely off their feet. Her string of admirers is composed of all classes, from waiters and bus-husbos to dukes and courts. Over her in America the name of Josephine Baker was entirely unknown. Her stage appearances were all confined to the routine of a mere chorus girl, whose only duty was to dance in unison to the beat of an orchestra starring someone else. No one noticed that Josephine had a wiggle all her own—a wiggle that was destined to make the world sit up and take notice. Nor was anyone supposed to, since other than physician attentions, the wiggle curve of the hips, the attraction of the face, are not supposed to engage the attention of an audience who has paid its fare to see stars such as the late Farewell Mills, Bill Robinson and others whose figures and facial attractions are less but whose stage personalities and skill are captivating. But Josephine was not at all satisfied to remain in the background. She realized that her dancing was done in an original and distinctly unique manner so she took her chance and started on her own. Obscurity in the United States, Josephine "Black-bottomed" to way to fame and wealth abroad. In a short while she began to exceed even her own fondest hopes. THE FILM MAKES A SUCCESS OF THE FILM 'THE FILM' NORA HOLT RAY recently preclaimed "Queen of the Savoy Ballroom in New York City. She is an artist of international renown, having played engagements in London, Paris, Monte Carlo, New York and Chicago. She became a movie star, her starring picture being the "Siren of the Tropics." She toured country after country until her name blazed forth on every newspaper abroad. In fact, Europe wondered how such an attraction could escape America's notice. Such was the rise of a pretty little brownskinned girl from a poor little $20 a week chorus girl to a heaven of wealth. But Josephine is not the only one who has shared the milk and honey of Europe's Negro Heaven, look at Noble Sissi! At the famous Society rendezvous, "Les Ambassadeurs," in Paris, Noble has played dance music like "nobody's business." Trene Castle McLaughlin, Epig Hopkins Joyce and many others well known throughout the world have commended this jazz artist for the manner in which he pushes or a song. Even Jason Katz, the classe wizard, the violin, said of the Noble sissi band that it was "a fine band unequalled." Others equally as distinguished have praised this successful Negro orchestra. In an entirely different field stands Paul Robeson, the most superbly versatile individual the Negro race has produced. As an artist he has proved his mettle both on the stage and in the concert hall. His magnificent deep voice has "brought down" many a house in blond, Nordic England. His singing of Negro spirituals has many times been characterized as unsurpassed. While his recital impressively earned the role of "hello" has never been equalled by white or black actor. So complete and sustained has been his magnificent reception in England that he has secured himself a palatial home in an exclusive London residential district where, with his charming wife and son, he now lives England, if not Europe, but never been heaven to the great Robert. Individual Negro writers of lesser reputation are eminently successful in Europe when their ability in America has failed to make the grade. Many have starred in various productions over there that were not accessible to them over here. They have proved time and time again that merit will win, even though it seek foreign fields to do so. Other sepia teams who have won sustained success abroad, are Lyton and Johnstone, whose song and dance specialities brought them priviled popularity in India. Their picture in London fascinated them in the London Tatler beside that of the Prince of Wales. Josephine Hall, well known blues singer and cabaret entertainer, was very recently the only Negro member of a cast that appeared in Stockholm, Sweden. She is credited with having given a stellar performer opportunity. Her ability is perhaps the most logical reason for the tremendous success of Negro actors and actresses abroad. In America, the talent of colored theatrical stars is well recognized but the opportunity is not commensurate with their ability. But in Europe the better, when better entertained, are born, they will be Negroes. So isn't Europe heaven for sepla theatrical arts? "Solid South" Closed Speaking of Georgette Harvey and her associates, reminds us that that of the principals, along with two other colored players, Lew Payton and Richard Huey, closed last week.

S. MITH Wilk-knight Writt- Author of THE DARK KNIGHT INSTALLMENT ELEVEN Work ceased in the field. a little earlier than usual that afternoon. Carl went by the cabin where Hotchkiss lived. He found the little man, shoes off and feet on the porch rail, puffed contentedly at his corn cob pipe. "What Carl," he said, "Fust' time you bin shack, nain' it?" "Better late than never," Carl responded pleasantly. "What's on 70 min', Carl?" "Oh, nothing much." "To you ain' kiddin' me none," Hot shot response.

As dull fell the youth bathed and shielded with more care than he could remember since his first date with Antoinette in his junior year se college. He has taken a break and had been highly cated at the privilege because the girl belonged to the set of which he hoped to become a member. He chuckled now and laughed the white shirt he obtained that day from the house. However, he proceeded with his dressing with great care. Not until his hair was gleaming from a thorough combing did he desist, and his preparations completed. He waited until things got going in the second. Carl Is Nervous He felt an odd beautyfulness at joining his fellow workers in a social way, and he knew that the word had gone around that he and Toto had become lovers. Tonight would be his first appearance with her, and he would be like a proudly like pride at the thought. He tried to scoff, telling himself that he was only going to a plantation party, but the quiet, throbbing happiness of expectation glowed steadily within him. He felt as he thought a prosecco dress must feel a few minutes before his marriage to one dearly loved. When the strains of the banjos and the shouts of merriment became apparent, he arose and sauntered very slowly through the woods. He killed along the way much as a bashful small boy who dreads to make his entrance at a party night have done. The night was dark, and true to the old woman's prophecy, the sky held a hint of rain. At last Carl reached the scorching grounds. Around the bright fire many couples swayed in close embrace as One-Eye and a companion drew barbaric music from their instruments. There was much laughter and galety; much shouting and rough play among the men. Carl wandered through the dense crowd seeking Toto with an eagerness which he tried to hide. She was not among those who danced, nor was she among those who sat near the fire eating the redolent vlands. The youth decided that she had not yet arrived. He walked carelessly over to the long tables, above which roll lanterns swung, casting a flickering light over the intent gamesters. Someone moved away at the dice table. Carl eased into his place and for a few minutes watching the play out of the crowd he raised his eyes, and there, directly across the table, Toto. Standing close beside the table, Toto one of her arms was around the big boy, smiling at him with a sweetness which turned Carl sick with sudden jealousy. Of the woman for whom he had conceived such a sudden, devastating love, standing beside Boge brought a rush of hurt disgust to Unsteadily he pushed back out of the room, noticing the noticed. For a few minutes he stood motionless at the outer edge, sick with jealousy. The feeling was new he knew before in his life had he known that before, by what before he would have considered an unimportant event. But now it was important! He sighted the crowd unhesitantly, his heart burst with its sudden ache. He tried to t" him himself that he was being sled—was act like a love-sick boy—but such a love-sick relieved him no whim. Around the fire the throng of dan- dens, closely-packed women formed a dense, closely-packed swaying couples who moved as though in hypnotized rythm to the thro- bble.

Welded together by the spell of the music, their emotions whipped to a froth of desire, they seemed to have forgotten everything, so engrossed were they in the estasy of the moment.

He felt that he could do no good by staying, and yet he was loatha to go. He muttered the problem over in his mind, but came to no decision. Someone touched him on the arm, and Eostot's cheery voice broke welcomes into his frizzied thoughts. "You looks like a lost sheep, Carl," the little man told him jovially. "Will you call?" Carl shrugged his shoulders. "Guess I'm just, out of luck," he muttered drearily. "Cause, why?" "Oh, Toto was to meet me here tonight." "An 'she' an 'here'? "Yes, she's here all right," Carl explained with bitter resentment, "but she's with Boger over at the dice table." "Hush my moust" Hetsot exclaimed indigently. "Guess it has it on my cabin." "He's his friend. "And I'm leaving in the morning." "I hates to leave my Saly," Hoshib said with come mournfulness, "but if you goes I goes too, together. But if you goes I goes too, together." Carl cried, touched by his friend's loyalty, "but you mustn't leave here just because I do." "Say, you年年 why do you go and then why want in tarnation or be my doun' like that?"

You wait-twill I runs down to my shock, and then we shows. Bogo somplin" Hoshib cried. Before Carl could hatch through the crowd at a rapid pace. With a slow anger snoouldering in, him Carl made his way back to the table, and pushed to a place opposite him. He still stood encroached in the grime. Bogo was in possession of the dice, and he was winning 'hugely'. His hand with percipitation and his loud laugh rang out triumphantly as he raked a pile of bills and silver into the mound of money in front of him. He smiled quickly, smiled quickly, and dropped one as though, to say: 'Business before pleasure'. but she was nervous. Her agitation caused Bogo to glance up, and he ran to the trumpet, as he saw Curl's hurt face. He threw one of his tremendous arms around Toto and pulled her to him. Up and down, the tables men halted their 'gambling' to watch this play. A whispered splendid swept its length, and a faint 'air of tension' the 'loud talk' and 'cries' to cease. enough to he heard by all at the table. "But I don' speche he come heath fo to gamble," he added, with a glance at the woman at his side. "Does you want to shoot de bones?" the gamekeeper asked Carl respectfully. Enters the Game Carl's hand was in his pocket, and under the stress of his emotion he had closed it upon the tight wad of bills which represented his earn- ings and, as he suddenly remembered, his fare back to Chicago. When the gamekeeper spoke, Carl had a reckless urge to show the grinning dark giant that he could gamble, and show him that he didn't want to hurt him. He did not. He wanted also in some way to hurt the woman who stood calmly across the table watching him with speculative eyes. "I tosh shoot thirty dollars," he annotated. "I shoot into a boy's chest. A gasp of astonishment went up from the players. "He's gonna shoot thutty bucks!" an man exclaimed incredulously. The size of Carl's stilt siennaed face was a giant for an instant. Then realizing that he was a big winner and could face the with the red urge for blood burn- like a jungle savage toward his amount, he threw the required sum across the table with a grand flourish. "Ah fades you, little boy," he announced grandly俏然. "An' ah hopes you don't crap out on de dice like you does wif de women!" The onlookers laughed appreciatively, although there were many who sympathized with Canr. The game then threw the dice to canr with scarcely a look at them shock them briefly, and cast them down on the table. Another shout went up. "Seven! A natural!" "What you shoot now, Caz!" the masked, his eyes large with excitement. "Shoot the staky dollars!" the youth calmly told him, his eyes probing into those of Bogo. This time Bogo fairly threw the money out on the table. The trumpet smiled smile and was replaced by one of sullen anger. Boro Resentful "Shake de dice dis time," he commanded petitish. Odieney: Carl shook the dice with maddening vigor and rolled them down the table. It was another natural — eleven that. Bogo cursed vindictively, casting malevulent glances at Carl. Someone touched Carl sortly on the arm. It was Elmir. "Shoot 'f' me, daddy," she cried loud enough for Toto to hear. The girl, seeing Toto with Bogo, began to cry. Bogo interrupted to interfere. Carl scarcely noticed her. Toto's eyes clouded, then nawed furiously. "What you shoot now, Carl?" the gamekeeper asked in something appropriate. Bogo shook all of it — one hundred and twenty dollars; Carl replied calmly, while his glance challenged the suilen Bogo. The giant giant's glance wavered, to the table. A loud gust of talk broke the tenness. "Bogo isn't gonna fade all that money." one exclaimed provocatively. As though in answer, Bogo pushed his pile of money to the center of the table. "Ah what does I get!" Just as Carl shook the dice, there was a sudden commotion at his side, then a screech. He glanced around in time to see Toto kink Emira away from him, then he ran to the side breathing rapidly, but smiling at him. "I tried to tell you that I was with Bogo for a purpose," she whispered. "Now hurry up and break him, so we can be together." This time Carl shrew the numbered bones across the table, and when they stopped they were -directly -in front of Bogo. One of them had the figure "I." uppermost, and the other two rows of trunks. Bogo glared speechless at Carl.

It surprised and somewhat bewildered He again told me to wait. I had to. Johnne. Still he would not be out, though I found it more difficult to do so, every second. Johnne's left would drown from it. "Be careful of that right, kid." warned one of the seconds. "He hits like thunder with it: You been in luck so far. He flattened McKay with it last week. He did Johnne. "He did..." The minute was up and he had to go back again. From my point of view the fourth was a scorer. And I guess Dorsey thought it was a bit torture for Johnne. He told me about it. My lad had decided to stop backing away while jabbing. He just rolled his body and ducked to avoid punishment and Dorsey unscored some very unique feints and counters that made him unstunned. Several times Dorsey shook my lad with a delayed book to the chin. He worked it like this: first he would start a jolt for the body when then leaped across the heavens, Obeying some impulse, Carl tailed a few crumpled bills to the table and calculated insolence. The tables were now turned with a vengeance. In front of Carl was the mound of money which had been Bogo's. Carl by Carl's side the lovely Toto stood with the air of one who has the full right and desire. The onlookers could almost see the slow motion of mind; mindy could sense from his increasingly tense manner that something was about to happen. A few of the more timid left the table hurriedly, and the onlooker way aroused. As the small ward of money struck in front of him, Bogo swept it from the table with a funnel. The heavy muscles, melovely, and the heavy muscles of his huge jaw grew rock-like under the force of his passion. He gripped the table with both his hands while his breath Suddenly he belLOWed like an enraged bull, and knocking people from his path ruthlessly, he started around the table lowering his unhinged insolence and threat. Carl had not thought beyond the moment of his triumph, and now with the somewhat fearsome spectacle of his death, he had no definite thought as to how to defend himself. He felt something cold being slipped into his hand, and heart beating like a sword saying: "Don't let that big devil hurt you!" Carl and Bog Clash. As though on cue, the thundered peacock began blasting the instant blasting of cannon. An abrupt shower of cold rain swished downward, and then the heavens seemed to open, pouring forth wind Bogo did not hesitate. It is doubtful that he even realized anything beyond his grim desire to set his huge hand over the little girl he treated a little from the table toward a clearer space. The two men met just as a particularly brilliant flesh of a girl with a peculiar green radiance that set forth every object with startling distinctness. Bogo swung one of his heavy hands at the girl, who was peeling, and backed away. Bogo followed with relentless ferocity, flipping with mighty blows at his elusive opponent. By the intermittent flashes of lightning the two men moved around, one of them holding the other and the other with wary cautiousness. Carl was rapidly losing his breath, and the ground had grown slippery, so that he knew he had been wrong, and his stronger enemy would throttle him, and perhaps live up to his threat of breaking every bone in his body. Again, he was in something to flash over Carl like a hot flood. He forgot who he was, where he was, and even what he was fighting about. All he remembered was that he was from an unrushing, savage enemy. As the bigger man murdered toward him his arm flashed out like the lasing of a maker's tongue. The knife he was holding seemed not to notice. He still came tearing in, in unabated fury. Again the knife in Carl's hand flashed-out this time, and it found it again. It found it again. It found its mark. Again, and again, and again, the giant tore at his smaller enemy, and each time the razor-sharp wedge in its target with unerring pressure. As though in some gargantuan accompaniment to a battle of giants, the thunder crashed, and the white lightning shuddered brilliantly through the blackness of the night. Bodily and finally they ceased. He stood for a moment like a great black oak by some mighty power, then he toppled over, and lay inert. Breathing heavily, the red umbrella hurried through him, Carl creep like a jungle savage to his fallen foe. Centuries of civilization fell away from him like leaves before a storm. He stood, half frozen, and poised to deal the death blow. He been able to see himself he would not have recognized the twisted, snarling face as his own. Through the mist of his faming mob, he responded to his compelling voice like a dash of ice water. "Carl," it said. insistently. "Carl, you almost killed him. Don't stab him again!" Slowly the murderous desire bloomed in his arm. His arm dropped imply to his side, and the knife in his hand fell unnoticed on the ground. He was suddenly cognizant of what he was about to do or perhaps already had done, and a wave of nausea swept over him, causing him to reel blindly. Two men who had taken the arm of a sick child, and led him slowly through the woods. "Jus' lean on me honey lamb" she begged, "We're going home. Tote's taking her baby home . . ." Boro Falls Inert flash-like my boy would cover he would raise it in the same motion and land flush on the jaw. It surprised Johnnie. Still he would not be outdone. Johnnie's left would drop from its jabbing position and bring both of his hands up to the jaw. He would flash fast and hard under his left to land on Dorsely's right jaw and an instant later hanged with a sickening thud against the other hand. He would interfere with my ideas of what would have happened in another punch like that. "Now, just what McKay did this bird fhten?" Johnnie asked. "What did he hear? Am I hurt? Am I heard about it?" replied the second as he closed the cut on Johnnie's chin. "Thanks!" Johnnie snapped as he pressed the second as he pressed the opposite corner. For the first time I saw his fighting face. His eyes were more sits, his lips formed a tightened line and he protruded a bit. He had been transmitted in a word to an intransitive force. They sparred a bit at the beginning of the sixth. Dorsey feinted to take the knife into a clink but Johnbuck brought both him and fast play and drove him off. Then his left shot out savagely and threw Dorsey's head back to just the right angle. Then followed a right that turned into a left that was as he delivered it to Henry's law. The fight was over. I was glad, and suffering from a few mixed emotions that the best little man in the world today!" I told him in his dressing room. "Now come, tell me what you were trying to find out while you were stalling around them." "You might laugh at me now. Guess I won't tell." He smiled drilly. "I won't laugh-honest." I asked. "I found out several things. First, Dorsey kept after my jaw; so I just reasoned it out that his jaw must not be so good," he replied. I was puzzled, and your deduction worked. Your favor. Now what else did you find out? "Out there in the fourth row left about two seats in. There is a girl sitting in the back, in me as my mother." He dropped his eyes and I scented a romance. "That is the reason why you did not fight your best at first?" "Kinda." he answered slowly. "You see the police very good friends. I wanted to convince that I could not get hurt. Then that darn fool, Dorsey, went and cut my jaw and pollen in my nose works! How? There was something in the ring of his voice that did not just suit me. "How? he repeated, 'why can't you see?' She said he killed Mckey and that it was Dorsey that I was fighting. Then the whole thing is off." But it. kid. You know your mother isn't going to object to your making a few dollars in so short a time. I told him, then a ray of light hit me like a brick. "Say! What the heck is that girl doing here and what is my mother?" I told her I was here. "You told her! And you didn't want your own mother to know? Are you goofy or something?" "Aw, you don't understand. You see she got her phone job. I see she got the something she liked. And I took it so that she would like me," my dad replied as he pulled on his coat. "A minute, Kid; let me set this thing right. This dame gets you a soft job. You like her and want her to like you. You come up here to fight and make me keep your name secret so that you can tell her what happened and then you tell this skirt where you are. She comes and sees you get a cut. Now you are trying to tell me it is all off. For the love of good humor, you see me the straight of it. Will you?" "That's nothing much," he began, but by the time he had finished I had learned that the lady in question was the one of him when his mother could not. He told me of that last evening he had spent with her in Baltimore and how he had kept his whiskeys a secret until he became lone for me. He simply had to hear from her so he wrote her a letter. Then to his surprise and dismay, she came to New York to see him work at box. He had to explain. Then she came to see him box and he knew she disproved of his ever entering the ring again. "There's no use of your feeling so far," she said. "See I know you wouldn't understand," he chided me. "This girl and I are the best of friends and I don't want anything——" There was a great disturbance outside where I could hear the high pitched voice of a woman. "Take your hands off of me! she yelled at some one. 'I'm going in and for myself that he isn't hurt.' A sudden star by Johnny Depp eyes were fastened on the door. His hand brushed lightly over the cut jaw. Then a smile came across his lips and a twinkle in his eyes as he took his hat and started for the door. With an oomb he bowed and indeparting said: "You and I have been the best of friends. I thank you for all that you have done for me. I will see you later and try to get you to come around the room at the rest he grinned and said, "Well, go iod night, boy, see you later." And he was through the door and amid the cheers of those admirers who will gather after a fight is over. I had just gone out and stood behind one of those celebration cigars, the kind we love so well but only smoke after something has happened to exceedingly please us. Then the phone rang. I let it ring a second and opened the door, the door, opened the door first. I felt more like talking to some one near than at a distance. the phone ringing I had a fear that you had not returned yet." It was Ben, the person whom I had induced to promote the bout. He went on in his own progressive manner. "I was here before but you were not in. The clerk told me you had returned so I had him ring to tell you I was on my way up. Don't like to talk in lobbies, you know." "I really feel honored," I told him. "It is usually managers who go to the promoters." I would have offered him a seat but he was already in the easy chair in which I had intended to enjoy my cigar. "That tip you gave me about your boy was all right; but what leaked out about Dorsey putting McKay away was better. Was that your work?" Ben asked with a devilish twinkle in his eyes. "No, I did not know a thing until tonight." I informed him. "Maybe. But let me tell you this before it bumps me up. That information got to the gambles and made Doreen, your boy, the best. Your boy had been champion of the South, but that did not mean much to them. Anyway, I took your word for what it was worth and placed a little on the short end." He reached out and billed bills. "Here," he went on, "is a little present for you and the boy. Only fifteen hundred, but it's half of my wins on your tip." was abashed. Ben had paid us our money when John entered the ring; but here he was giving us an unexpected bonus, as it were, from his profits. "I'm going to give this to the kid." I am enthusiastic. "Oh, I didn't mean to insult you with such a paltry sum. Ben apologized." "I only meant to give you half of what I made on the tip." Ben pleased, and he will be very encouraging to me. "Good! I got something to encourage him more than that." "What is it?" I asked eagerly for I think of nothing better than money. "A chance for the lightweight championship of the world." "Lightweight championship! But my boy only weighs twenty-six." He had to bother about the weight. "Can you get McKay to agree to that?" I asked. "Personally, I believe McKay would win in the world than Donsey. I'll tell him your boy is easy." Ben winked. "You talk it over with him nice and quiet like and I will get my boy to look at the pot of gold. Very few men have had a chance to step from the world's championship in two games. "Guess that all. But before I go let me tell you that by boy of yours is the class of them all at his weight. Good night. "It all seemed like a dream—a pleasant dream in which I wished to continue to drift. I counted the money then gave myself a shake to see if the fight was yet in the offing. Gosh, what a night. From salesmen to fighters to the fighter to salesman and manager of the man who beat the man who had beaten the champion! "It was all too good to last. Would it be when Johnnie climbed through the chamber to meet the champion. No, my friends, much sooner, than that. "The next morning as I lay ruminating over the events of the night before, the phone rang and disturbed the pleasantness." "He said," I answered, "Send him all." I finished. Two minutes later John Larkins stood before me. Until now there had been something admirable in his frank gaze. But now as he stood there looking, not at me, but past me, I sensed something wrong. "What is it, boy? Say it." I broke the silence. "It's nothing but this." He repulsed pushing toward me the morning paper. I took it and read the lines over the fight. Then the paragraphs that followed. "They don't do you justice." I offered as I was in the act of returning the paper. "I don't mean the fight." he grumbled in the fourth column. I did. Ben had not lost a minute in starting paper work for what he thought would surely be Larkins's next bout. There was a column devoted to the wonderful work of my teacher. I had a denible challenge to the lightweight champion of the world, McKay. "That's good." I said when I had finished. "All you have to do now is to keep in condition and you will be the second man to 'bring home the bacon to Baltimore.'" And I had but one purpose in life and that was to beat the man who had beaten Gans. Later that aim grew to be, beat any man who had beaten a champion. Last night I did that. Now I am through with the boxing game from a comeback. I was so sad, so soft, rang with the note of finality. "Surely you don't intend to let this opportunity of fame and fortune slip through your fingers!" I urged "Just think. One night's work and you will be a champion who can demand what you want." That will be proud of you." The craftsmanship left his eyes and he raised at me honestly. "I promised you one fight. I have given it and given my best in it. You should be satisfied. There are others who my thoughts leaped back to his mother who wanted him to be a gentleman and the girl who had come to see him. Then for the sake of those others I fought champion and win. They will be much better off with a few thousand more. They will be proud to know that you can conquer any man in the world at your weight. Think. Think. Think! Fame and joy you!" A superficial smile, almost a sneer, came to his lips. "I thought it all over before I accepted your offer to fight last night. I needed the money to buy a car. I will lose more than money can ever replace," he replied calmly. "There is but one thing money cannot buy—health. I assured him. I will lose more money than money in the world—Love." Johnnie spoke like a Romeo. "No. I agree. "But a true love is lasting and will live through you as a fighter for a few months longer. I will not offend its beloved, he came back early. Your case is hopeful. Still if you AMAZING STORIES The Author has below started a series of extraordinary hypothetical stories which draw heavily upon the imagination but which plague the imagination. In the past, when science had not been implanted into the future, when doubles are travel will have practically implanted land travel, when science will have achieved the 'impossible' in effecting frequent and comparatively easy communication with the planet Mars, and while science has completely controlled by the limitless possibilities of scientific invention. Not only are these stories ingenuous but stimulate breath-taking thrills, by depicting the possibilities of life on the earth many years after the present generation has become extinct. In the future, with the imagination and you must agree that he writes with astonishing reality. H LAT on my back, bound hand and foot, a splitting headache penetrating to the innermost nerves of my wretched body. I was gradually regaining consciousness. At least, certain of my senses began to function. For some moments, I had been lying there struggling to ascertain just where I was, and had only then come to the conclusion that in matter like this, no one appeared that I was lying on the floor of a small, darkened, stone-walled room of some sort; and, armed with this evidence I was able to ascertain that I was lying on my left side, a most painful operation, my friends; but what I saw somewhat repaired me. About four feet away lay three men, like Ike and Ivy, and through the semi-darkness I could see that the three figures stretched out on the floor we were moving spasmodically, as if just coming out of the room. I had a most popular effect on me. A great fog seemed to encircle my brain. I had become conscious now of throbbing pains at my chest, which kept biting into my flesh, and too, the queerst of sounds began seeping into my ears. Closing my eyes, I turned over on my bed and looked up at a prick my memory. From somewhere within me came question after question. Who are you? Where? How came you to be bound? . . . Think. An art of this sort of thing and my mind began to open up like a long closed door-rusty hinges, you see—a little at a time. I was a teacher, a teacher writer. That was I included to believe, for I had a vague feeling that I had read recently a critic's comment on a book he had written. I had been published on August 8, A.D. 2020. With this fact established, an exhilarating feeling of ecstasy by a paw out of my head; yet I reasoned that if my findings were correct, I should, if possible, be able to sleep the sleeping chamber of my Philadelphia apartment, and further, I should very soon arise and partake in the activities by my manervant, Bennett. "You're dreaming, fellow," groaned over and over again to myself; "you're not really bound hand and foot, not actually imprisoned in a darkened cell; but merely in the clutches of a hideous nightmare!" A yearning to snap out of it surged through me. This feeling that my mind was imprisoned in that half-world between consciousness and unconscious peristided, doggedly. I cannot swear to this, but I imagined that my dark brown face was masked in a most idiotic grin. Or perhaps I was groaning, or yelling—I do not know. I do know, however, that with a deep inhale I called at the top of my voice: "Bennett!"—again and again, like a drowning person calling for help. This sort of thing must have continued for some time. Gradually a great fear came over me. Finally I was in a gripping panic. For no soft footsteps had fallen on my anxious ears; no quiet opening of a door; no well-mannered masculine voice greeted me with "Good morning, Mr. Brent. You will find your bath drawn, sir. And you will breakfast here?" Unwilling to believe the worst, I lay very still, mumbling feverishly, and when a voice did finally come to me the realization that it did not belong to my mind, I mumbled spinning it, it was a familiar voice one that pierced my memory, like a sharp knife. Born of consternation, it exclaimed: "Great guns Brent has gone mad!" I closed my eyes and gronad. Yes, I could see the hungeness of it sent me rolling on my left side again like a suddenly released log. For one wild moment I lay there staring at the three scarcely visible dark forms on the floor, and then, and only then, did I register the presence of H.S. Turner's secret expedition to the planet of Mars, that the three figures stretched out on the floor were: Mr. Turner, P. H. Heaton and R. H. Brown—all eminent Negro scientists. We deed, we didn't have time, for just at that moment there came from somewhere beyond those stone walls, loud outbursts of merriment walled with a barrage of interchanges, with a number of footsteps which hummanken, were drawing near. I exclaimed to my companions: "Did you hear that, men? DID YOU HEAR THAT? It was the language of that ... Why. We were not on Mam all!" Mr. Turner countered: "An impossibility, Brent. I tell you, my calculations did not miscray. We are on decide to fight before, you are too old, just let me know. By the way Here is a little present for you from the promoter." I handed him the money Ben handed it. I don't understand why I should be given a present after I have been paid once. He was still holding the money in the position he had taken it. But Big Ben brought it in last night and gave Ben it. Now I am giving it to you because a fighter who fight may need it before long" I played my last card. "Never mind that," he half laughed—I had lost. "We will divide this and part good friends." "No. I don't want any of the money, I protested. "But we can give our friends. Here's my band on it." We shook hands and he left me gazing at a closed door and thinking. Thinking how this lad, in whom was the makings of the greatest fighter in history, could be sentiment to interfere with the career and beloved breast. the planet of Mars, meal! I'd stake my reputation on that!" Mr. Brown interrupted: "But the noises . . . they sound familiar, like the workday progress of a great city!" "Guide so," Turner shot back. "But listen close! Not once will you hear the siren of a motor!" He would have said something but his words smothered themselves, and, as if by command, the four of us lay suddenly very still. The footsteps had suddenly ceased. In their place came a metallic noise and a shimmering light that the next instant a door swung open and a huge shaft, of light streamed into the cell-like room, for a moment blinding us. The door advanced into the room. At first, they looked like mere children, they were so small; but then our vision cleared and we beheld four fledglish little black faces. They were doomed to die, for they were forlorn for life, drawn apart in cut-throat grills, tiny black eyes sunk deep into their heads, huge, protruding ears, long beaked noses, and their small bodies covered from head to toe. In the case of earth would call robes—thick, gray-looking material. And clutched in four huge fists were four dangerously locking dick-like knives—which they bent and tournished threateningly We were speechless, Such werd faces earthly man had never before seen Suddenly he stepped backwards, laughing devilish, and it was then that I cured. The others brandished their evil-looking knives even more recklessly as they laughed, taking a rasp gaga, "Reptiles of Pragus!" he virtually screamed in our faces. "You would enter the kingdom of Els against the of the Great One. You would go—" "Pragus!" it was Mr. Turner. In the bright-light his eyes were ablaze. Vainly he was, the rest us, the rest of us, the rest of us, "Wea, not, Pragians," he shouted in exasperation; "where from Earth, I tell you—" "Their faces were the pictures of confusion. "Earth? What means that?" exclaimed the ugliest one, and Mr. Turner would have talked on-but at that moment one of the queer creature blows out our comrade's face, flattening him out in a daze. "Beware! It is a Pragian trap!" this one we queer-looking "Be so!" agreed another of them. Then: "Render them free, Igy. The Great One would have them brought to you. You should shall go the way of all sneaking Pragans! Are the fiery sphere in the sky sleep, they shall be cast to the demons!" Called Igy did so. One by one, with our swollen刷 and ankle frogs, we staggered to our feet, Mr. Turner staggered back against the wall and there, and I saw that his law was bleeding proficient. The little black imps brandished their knives and the leader of them commanded us to lead the way out into what appeared to be a passageway. Never in all thirty years had we been so angrily and frightened! Seizing this perhaps, the one called Igy emitted a whoop and glared at me; my knee was charged on me with arm raised to strike my heart out, but as he closed in I caught his wrist and wrenched it until he howled. His knife fell clattering to the floor, and I was struck by the strength in my weakened body! He caught it, square on the chin, and he went hurtling backwards like a little drunk. Two more of the devils came to the room, clear and they crashed into the wall. "Iy! Hulcubon!" Gr Jacoje! "The fourth one rushed to the door to block our way, knife raised, what I saw was a huge grin on his eyes. "Are we sent to prick his Wash? I say, let us be gone with these asking Fragians to the place of my life, let me, but at that moment, just as I was about to rush the devils again, my three scientist-companions in this adventure rushed on me and throttled me to the floor, my gasping, "Bend a be, Brent!" Blind now with fury, with one mighty heave I sent them tumbling off of me, and as they went over on my shoulder, I saw them fendish little; face abaize with fury, hats fists doubled into knots, came at me like a miniature bull, snorting ferociously, and there was no rising in time to meet him, already he was murmuring. I lifted my legs and let him have it square in the stomach with my feet. He gasped and grunted like a sow, and the next instant, lying flat on my back I lifted his wigging body up and ran over him, hurried him crashing into the wall, after which I would have probably sprung up and tried to finish the lot of them. But, in a great whoop came from the bush, a great creature rushed into the room, and all I can recall of what followed, is that someone screamed and a great, mountain of lying flesh and bones piled on top of Mars? If we really on the planet of Mars? If so, how can the presence of the English language be explained? Who are the Pragsians and what is Who is the Great One? The next time, my friends.

It was the result of the surprising strength of the A. and T. line in needy times to prevent Hampton from scoring on the six- and three-yard lines. The game was played in the World War Memorial stadium before some 1,500 spectators. The Virginia boys came to Greensboro with the reputation of having an impregnable line, a long distance punter in Weatherford, and an all-around defensive team. They 1,500. spectators.

Shanklin ATLANTA, Ga.—Tuskegee, Southern champions, ran true to form by defeating the Maroon team of Morehouse, Saturday, 19-6. Morehouse's scoring crew, so famous this season, failed to function in the first half against Coach Cleve Abbot's mighty machine. Tuskegee scored early in the game when Stevens, Shanklin and Harrison, running behind a 200-pound line, swept through the Maroon line on a 65-yard drive which netted their first score. Shanklin went over for the second tally after Harrison drove the ball to the Morehouse one-yard line. The half ended 12-6. Early in the second half, Tuskegee slipped over its third score after being held on the Morehouse two-yard line for three downs. Steve kicked the extra point. Then Morehouse began to fill the air-with passes. The combination of Kelly to Edmonds, on a beautiful running pass, gave Mordreau a chance to make a mistake. Mordreau had swept through the Tuskegee line, carrying the ball to the 1-yard line. The game was featured by sweeping runs and hard tackling. Both teams played fast and seemed anxious to outsmart the OMicals: Referee-Rivers (Talladega). Umpire-Tutt (Lincoln). Headliner-Alten (Hampton). Field judge-Walker (Lincoln). HARLEM SPECULATES ON WHY "KEED" LOST NEW YORK—(ANP)—Post-mortem on the Chocolate-Barba fight are revealing various theories as to why the Cubanula dropped. The team was positively his worst fight since his inauspicious debut at Mitchell Field, two years ago. First, there are those who declare that the Kild-Berg fight took more than the fellow than was at first, thought. Second, are those who believe that making 123 pounds was asking too much for the fight, as now they are not. Third, are those who are firm in their opinion that the gay life has gotten the Keed, offering a little help to those who thrive on night clubs, backstage parties, and late hours. Chocolate took only three rounds of the ten, fighting like a little tiger in the rain. Whether Chocolate is going back or not will be told in his next fight, but the fact remains that he is still the gamester ready and willing to fight, and as far as possible giving his best at all times. His value as a drawing card is not at all the result. At that fight, even in these perplexed times, 16,000 fans paid $45,000 to see the Kid lose, and any fight that can draw 10,000 fans in a transaction, make no mistake about that!

The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, November 15, 1930 Let'sTalkThisThingOver AN OPEN LETTER TO THE C.I.A.A. AND SOUTHERN CONFERENCE To the Athletic Directors of all Schools, Colleges and Universities Holding Membership in the C.I.A.A., and the Southern Conferences: GREAT SCHOOLS In the past decade, interest in football as a major sport in collegiate circles has increased with leaps and bounds and today, because of its social as well as competitive aspects, is the predominating athletic activity of the race. The leading schools of the country are divided into two great classifications, the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association and the Southern Conference. Lincoln University and Hampton Institute of the Eastern Division have popularized football in New York City in the world's largest stadium, where years ago games between Negro college elevenes were unknown. Tuskegee, of the Southern Division, has duplicated this accomplishment in Chicago in games with Wilberforce. These things have been done in face of skepticism, and it can not be anticipated what further strides this game will make in future years. The time is now ripe when these two great conferences should be brought together in an official capacity, and the AFRO wishes to pave the way by suggesting that a post-season game be staged in which the other championships of each conference meet to decide the national championship. Every school game has its local interest, every classic has its sectional interest, but such a game as is herein suggested would be of nation-wide importance. As an incentive, the AFRO-AMERICAN will offer annually a bronze trophy to the winner of the contest to remain always in the halls of the winning institution and serve as an inspiration to athletes of future generations. Will you communicate with us at once, expressing your candid views on the matter and offering suggestions as to how, where and when this project may be made a reality. Another One of those Horrible Lincoln Letters— TOMORROW I am bundling up several large consignments in order to send them to my office in cry, according to the advertisement), and some soothing syrup, and a carload of sense of humor to be served as breakfast food in goodly portions with a little milk of human kindness and shipping the bulk off to Lincoln University where the roar of the lion has been reduced to a squeak and squawk. This inspiration came suddenly upon receipt of another one of those letters which the present sojourners at Oxford are infamous for. But here read what one who signs himself "A Student of Lincoln University," has to say—I, mean, cry: Dear Mr. Matthews: From your recent criticisms concerning Lincoln University's football team, seemingly you do not have an adequate knowledge of the game. As you referred to the game as an hour of nothingness, you have proven your inferior knowledge. As both teams were playing for breaks (maybe I should not say that because I know you don't know what its significance is), both quarterbacks headed work. You overlooked the hard and clean tacks of the game, which supply thrills to those who understand football. Here the letter passes and you can almost feel the writer breathing a sigh of satisfaction and his face taking on the expression of one who has explained the Einstein Theory of Relativity. Then he proceeds: When you say that both teams were equal, because Hampton had to travel twice as far as Lincoln, and consequently Hampton suffered with that much effort, in other words they were worn out. This again shows your lack of knowledge concerning the two teams. He, my lads, is one who admits he is a student in a reputable institution of learning who publicly admits that he actually took that bit of sarcasm seriously. Sweep out the padded cells, boys, he's in the wrong institution. But you ain't heard nothin' yet. Here's Just How It Happened—Believe It or Not— If it happens to be any news to you, Hampton was in New York one day before Lincoln, had practice in the Yankee Stadium, and was playing while Lincoln arrived in New York City 5 o'clock Friday evening, and played against Hampton at 2:15 Saturday afternoon. Considering when white college teams travel across the continent and win games, that little distance (comparatively speaking) Hampton had to travel, they should have won the game easily. Now, right there is the propaganda that sends sports editors to an early grave, produces high blood pressure and falling arches. Every school writer who sends accounts of games to newspapers makes a statement, they group many fast and powerful their opponents were. To climax it, "they were surprised by a determined little Whoisis eleven who fought doggedly to win by a score of 158 to 0." Them's Harsh Woids, Brother— Mr. Matthews, it appears to me that you are somewhat prejudiced towards Lincoln. That is not the correct attitude when you play, the group least when you write, you should give your public true facts. Just why I should be prejudiced against Lincoln when there are so many other nice, big schools and collitches that I could hate with impunity, I am sure I cannot answer. There were two teams in Yankee Stadium last Saturday. I said I would not be punished, we punk and knew it. Lincoln with eleven men could not win on the gridron and now it expects poor little me to win the game in this column. Is there no justice? One-half the people in Baltimore are going to the devil when they die—or about 600 to be exact, as that was the number who violated one of the Ten Commandments and turned out in the New Albert Auditorium Sunday night to see the new Sunday basketball season inaugurated. Not since Sodom and Gomorrah have the ministers had such a theme to rave about as they will be furnished with in future months. Some people in Baltimore have discovered that it is just as necessary to live on the Sabbath as on any other day and they have set out to take some of the drains out of Baltimore Sundays. If last Sunday night's attendance is a criterion of what to expect, the local clergy have got to deliver some pretty snappy sermons to draw any kind of audiences at all this winter. Personally, I am glad to be looking at an innocent game than staging a Sunday liquor parties that fill the station houses on Monday morning. Sunday night's crowd was quiet and orderly and respectable. I warn Messrs. Dickon and Gamby, however, that there is one louse that they want to guard against like they would a leper and that is the petty bootleger. If Sunday sports becomes a nuisance from boisterousness, fighting, cutting and shooting, he will be at the bottom of it all. That's not an argument for prohibition: it's an argument for clean sports. Come on boys, let's give the A. and T. College's newly-acquired coach, Mr. Jefferson, a great big hand. Starting the season with a green and clumsy team, he has improved his aggregation with every contest until now he vanquishes the supposedly strongest eleven in the C.I.A.A. by defeating Hampton. In Baltimore, sometime ago, Coach Jefferson said, "I have a green team and you can't tell what they are going to do until they do it. In my first game they played only ten minutes of real football; in the game with Morgan they only played a quarter, but before the season's over I'm going to get a whole game out of them." Jeff got that whole game Saturday and again established right right right. In contrast, Country, Jeff makes teams out of new material where other coaches depend on players with established high school reputations. My hat is off to Big Jeff. Dear Mr. Matthews: From your recent criticisms concern football team, seemingly you do not hath of the game. As you referred to the ingress, you have proven your inferior in I were played by you don't know what its sign backs showed heady work. You overly tackles the game, which supply the stand football. Here the letter pauses and you can breathing a sigh of satisfaction and his pression of one who has explained theivity. Then he proceeds: When you say that both teams you ton had to travel twice as far as Li Hampton could not put forth their best words they were worn out. This as knowledge concerning the two teams.

The orange and blue team displayed the best offensive power that they have shown this year as they ranoughsed over their southern troop. The Lions began roaring into alien territory early in the tussle and before the first quarter had ended, they were sporting a 7-1 lead. It was a series of forward passes that led to the tallying of the initial touchdown of the game. Ernls Smith, former New York school boy star, gathered in the pigskin from the chilled vapor and raced twenty yards for the score. The extra point. Whole Backfield Stars In the second stanza, the Pennsylvanians annexed a pair of six pointers. Stretch Sydnor, Lincoln's all-around athlete, enveloped a forward pass which left the hands of LaMar, and raced thirty-three yards for the second touchdown, while Ernie Smith tallied again for the third touchdown by going through right tackle from the ten-yard line. The pumpkin crossed the coveted white line but once in the third quarter, but three times did the orange and blue machine cross the goal in the final period. Bear La-Mar dented the defense of the Virginians for the fourth touchdown.

However, due to the extreme drought which has prevailed throughout our State we will find game will have concentrated where they have bee: able to find cover and feed and naturally there will be large sections our state where game will Wat's Fres We have had some requests within the past thirty days that we close the hunting season due to the drought which, if it continues, will cause dangerous forest fires and drop half-burst matches, cigarettes and cigar stumps. We hope that before November 10th arrives, our State will be blessed with an abundance of rain, thereby eliminating the fire. We hunt and earnestly appeal to the public to be especially careful in the disposition of matches, cigar and cigarette stumps and pipe ashes, to see that the embers are absolutely OUT before they leave the spot. By everyone exercising caution, damage to forest and game will be avoided. We request the co-operation of the public in general in the enforcement of the game laws, giving every hunter a square foot and assisting hunting by feeding pups and guarding stock to be left in the covers for the propagation season of 1931.

Statemen and Hucle's Fighting Union. Panthers struggled to a 13-13 deadlock. Saturday. State taking advantage of an early break broke through for a doubtful marker and booted the extra point. An infuriated Panther line, with Captain Williams, Smith, Robinson, Peters, and Martin in the van, broke through on Williams's short kick and blocked to Maxey Robinson who scooped the piskin on a dead run and humped 28 yards for a touchdown. Union failed to make the extra point and State led at the end of the first quarter, 7-8. Union opened hostilities in the second quarter. From the 10-yard stripe to the 30-yard marker, Gill, Williams, and Armstead carried the off, and launched an attack. On a bullet pass through the center by Williams which the indomitable Maxey Robinson snared, he reled off a seventy-yard touchdown rampage leaving in his wake a furor of grasping Statesmen. Cubby Gill plonged for the extra point to give Union the marginal lead at the end of the half. Score, Union, 13; State 7. State Scores In the second half, “Zip” Johnson of State led his warriors on a downfield charge. Gruelling plunges by Bounds, with the aid of a five-yard penalty, barely pushed over the living touchdown. Gil grounded the pass from Johnson, and the Union Panthers remain undefended in the C.I.A.A., and if they can eke out a win or a tie in the game, the Panthers will continue, after walloping Shaw and St. Augustine, the 'farcon and Steel grid banner will float in triumph against the C.I.A.A. championship shield Kid Gets Crack at Crown NEW YORK--Kid Chocolate will be given a crack at the featherweight New York American's Christmas Fund benefit at Madison Square Garden on December 12, according to an announcement made this week.

YOUR Last chance to see "Big Tom" Conrad, Morgan's sensational half back, in action on the home grounds. PIMLICO RACES ATTRACT MANY Busy Day at Track Now from Dawn until Dusk. "They're off!" The milling, babbling nervous crowd that a second before was like a haze of bees stops in its tracks as the voice of the announcer barks these two words through the amplifiers atop the grandstand at Pimlico race track. This silence lasts but a second and then the grandstand is on its hind legs. Glasses are focused in the mass of horseflesh with their gaily colored jockeys astride. There is screaming, yelling, shouting, pleading, urging, jumping. Those flying heels round the curve a budded mass. Suddenly one or two ease out from the rest. The screams grow louder thousands are in a frenzy of excitement. Neck and neck they dash toward the final tape. Like a tortoise's head protruding from his heel one horse slips away from the other, and it is all over. Money Changes Hands Thousands of dollars change hands in those few seconds. Many have been made many times richer and as many reduced to pauperism. The place becomes a beehive of activity again. The pari-mutuel machines begin to click as long streams of humanity pour into the windows to place their bets. The scene described above is duplicated before each race. That represents a day at Pimlico. Start Early That as a matter of fact is the day that the average visitor sees. The day which begins about 1 p.m. before the first race and lasts until five or six after the last. Those who arrive earlier in the day will see considerable more. Morning, the guard guards get sick and the place swarming with race track tauts, hanger-ons trying to pick up a meal or a dollar by peddling "sure fire tips" which are not so sure fire in the afternoon; wise guys who are in the "know," corpulent stable owners looking over their racers on conversing with their jockeys and clockers, tippers and every content form of human derelict imaginable. Auction Sales The mornings night might find an auction sale in progress. Here is a scene that brings back memories of the old livery stable days. Horses with numbers pasted on their sides are paraded around with their prospectors of prospecting and each holding a book that traces the pedigree of the animal back many generations. The history of each pair used in the breeding is given, the races each has won or lost is given, and the forebears determine what price the horse will bring. The auctioneer, high upon a perch barks his hids which may go high into the thousands or fall as low - Cosmopolitan Atmosphere There is no more cosmopolitan place in the world than a Maryland race track. Here ragged, shoeless, untempered and unsteady, with Wall Street magnate clad in their coats of camel hair and bear skin with peaceful eyes. The Japanese gangle, one with the other, comparing notes and exchanging info. Tolerance is nowhere amplified applied to Gaucklers are all brothers under the skin. Established in 1830 This year marks the centennial of the establishment of the Maryland Jockey Club at Baltimore, but until 1833 it was spasmic and unregulated. During that year a racing association was formed. The Pimlico Club was not established until 1833. Some of the priests were made of the state aided in the establishment of the club. This season's meet saw many prominent persons of color, grandstand and the club of Baltimore. Washington and New York were among the visitors.

NEW YORK—The late Jex Richard, white, boxing promoter and manager of Madison Square Garden, was definitely branded as the man who mitted the chances of Harry Wills to get a shot at the world's championship crown held by Jack Dempsey in 1926. He was a lawyer for Gene Tunney, ex-champion, put in evidence telegrams and testimony proving these facts in answer to the suit of Timothy J. Mara for approximately $600,000 against the former title holder. Advised Against Wills. It does not matter how much that in 1928 R. Zard was advising Dempsey to fight Tunney instead of Harry Wills, who had been denominated "logical contender" by the Boxing Commission, and assuring him that he be taking less chance with Tunney. The telegrams showed that as early as a January 7, 1928, nearly three hundred telegrams were sent to the trust between Tunney and M.A.m on that M.A.ma his basis for 25 p:cent of Tunney's earnings as champion, Rickard approached Dempsey for a bout with Tunney on the next August. Would Kill Boxing Dempsey refused to sign a contract and informed Rickard that Western promoters were making a "big affair" for him. Rickard advised him in return that the "Wills show" would be "awfully hard to pull off" and that he had better steer clear of Western promoters. You should know that any one who attempts to promote a Dempsey-Wills match will kill boxing." Rickard continued. "You are taking less chances with Tunney and there will be this strictly confidential." Within the year Wills, despite Rickard's characterization of him, had been eliminated (from serious consideration as a boxer by his poor markings in his bout with Jack Parker.) W. Va.

I was then engaged to a young man, who a so-called his schoolmate was to follow me and we were to marry. But lately he wrote me never wished to see me again. It happened this way. I wrote to my girl friend, who is one of new admirers who fancied me greatly judging by the way they lavished their attentions upon me. Then the mean girl showed my letter to my friend, who was not alone but him, the others I only play with. How shall I win his love and respect back? FOOLISH. My dear, don't you know the first law of love is reticence? Of course, your young man is angry—you would be too in his position. And don't you know you can never trust even your best friend A&P ESTABLISHED THE ECONOMY BELT Dishes That are Tasty and Wholesome careful not to burn it.

Your good times probably made her envious, possibly she saw that your boy friend was behaving himself better than you were and she thought you didn't deserve to keep him. Perhaps, she wanted him herself. Anyway, you got what was due you. However, since you do love him I believe, with a little strategy, you can win him back. Write your girl friend how heart-broken you are; what a lesson this has taught you, and that even if you never win your fiance back you intend to remain faithful to his memory. If you make it convincing enough you will gain her sympathy and she will show the letter to him and in time he will surely write it. If one letter does not write several, Tell you have lost your appetite, you are growing thin, that you dream of nothing but your lost love. And try to make your life conform at least in part to your letters. Farm and Garden PROTECTING FLOWER BEDS It is too early to mulch such hardy perennials as tulips and narcissus as this is a job that should wait un-ti after the ground is frozen. The primary purpose of mulching is to prevent alternate freezing and thawing and for that reason covering should not be used until quite late depending on the season he saws. Dry leaves held down by cornstalk make an efficient mulch because this combination eliminates the larger of weed seeds infesting a mulch bed. Roses need little extra attention during the winter, except in the cases of hybrid tea and the baby rambler varieties. For the protection of these varieties, dig up 10 inch hill around the stems and to place a mulch of dry leaves or straw litter over this. One sure way for wintering tender roses such as wild roses is to dig up the plant and bury it in a deep trench, covering with soil and a heavy mulch of manure. Most climbing rose are considered very hard, but they appreciate some attention such as removing them on the ground and covering with dirt or straw. This covering should be removed promptly in the spring before growth has started. Hybrid perpetuals and shrub roses border and secure plantings do not require any special protection. In the Sewing Room Careful choice of patterns will prevent some of the fitting difficulties. One make of pattern cannot, in general, be said to be superior to another in fit. It is irivisible, however, to match with the different makes and find the one best suited to the figure. In increasing the sizes of patterns, the manufacturers often widen the shoulders and other parts in the same way. The measurements do not necessarily follow this rule. Therefore, it may be found that a pattern selected by the bust measure does not fit any other part. When using commercial patterns, measurements of the figure should always be taken, the pattern checked by these and the alterations made as far as possible before the garment is cut. The pattern of a style or cut suited to the figure is chosen, fitting will be easier. For example, on a stork figure a set-in sleeve is better than the raglan of the kimono style. With the latter type, ugly wringles which cannot be fitted under the arm. On the slender, square-shouldered person, these sleeves cause fewer fitting difficulties. Good News!

WATCHING THE BIG PARADE on His Last Legs In the past weeks the old age has given me severe jolts and as this writing the family is gathered around the beside wafting for that final gasp which will waft it into the great beyond. Naturally, I am say-eyed, as I look down upon it with bittersweet lips and choke back the tears. There is a lump in my throat;my heart is breaking. We have been in inseparable every since I can remember. Everything I have ever done was accomplished back and said, "Go on, tackle it, you big enough to try anything once." I don't see how I can get along without him. What a pall. I call him for short; his family name is Tism. First Serious Stroke He was just beginning to be his old self again when somebody writes: "I am the ace of football when you said that the game between Lincoln and Hampton in New York was an hour of the game, and the score." The writer said other things, all of them equally uncomplimentary. I took it very good naturally, but Ego suffered a relapse. The poor fellow looked so down-hearted that in order to cheer, him up I invited him, to the theatre. the Kritic Bizness We sat through two hours of entertainment at the Maryland Theatre the other night at the opening of the play, "The Piece of Pie," piece was soumberably dull that my pulse was to repeat my phrases on the Hampton-Lincoln game, only increasing the one hour of nothingness to two. I thought better of it, however, and tried to be as kind as people. "It's this way, Ego," I explained as we lit our pipes at home and settled down to write a review of the show. "Now there are about 60 odd people down there trying to put on a show, but we don't have the winter's work. If they fall—which they probably will—we will try to KOESTER'S HONEY BREAD Koester's Also Builds Ships----Friendships!

We'll say a little bad and a little good, and what do you know in a curious. What do you think of that? "A swell idea," said Ego. (He thinks all my ideas are swell, that's one reason why I enjoy his company.) Mr. Whipper, How Could You? When Leigh Whipper, who wrote the play, was invited to speak at the AFRO Ski Sunday, the first morning is "When I was young, than anything else is a decent theatrical critic." He then proceeded to lambast me with a choice of words phrased in a half and insultingly writing his play as he did in describing my ignorance, it would have been another "Abie's Irish Rose." The objection was that my criticism was not constructive. I told them what was wrong, he complained, but made no suggestions as how it could be corrected. The production worker on his production I do not know. But why he should expect me to look IS COOKING WILD GAME PROBLEM TO HOME CHEF? DON'T BLAME THE CHILDREN Along about this time of year the outdoors man gets a queer itching of his trigger finger, the shoulder of his trunk, and his trusty side his side, set off for the fields, to come home with a brace of quail or prairie chickens. Although the sport lies in the hunt, the successful sportsman enjoys sharing the spoils of the hunt with his family. And it is the skillful home chef who knows how to prepare game dishes. Every cook has her own methods for: pre- rinse game for the kettle. One housewife recommends the paraffin bath for the duck. Dry pick up the skin and squeeze it hot, hot hot, hot it squeeze and let it cool. The down and ph feathers can then be easily scraped off. After the duck is drawn, rinse inside. After the duck is drawn, rinse inside. A wet towel. Do not wash it unless you have broken the gall bladder. To tone down the wild game flavor, place an apple or onion inside, leaving a few minutes. The apple onion is then discarded. Baked Rabbit Another delicious game dish is rabbit baked in milk. Milk cooked a long time has a tendency to curdle. In using milk for baking of the rabbit, add the water first, let it cook until nearly done, then add the milk. Then add the cooking of milk at high temperature for a long time is avoided and you still have the richness of the whole milk in the baked dish. Try these recipes for cooking wild game: at the offering one night and decide offhand what would make it a Broadway estimate on my intelligence than ever Ego had given me credit for. In Defense of Myself Reading theatrical reviews is one of my hobbies. Ninety per cent of them tell what's wrong with a play in sentences meaner than in direct speech. Very ingestion. Very few, if any, tell the producers what medicine to give-the plot to strengthen it. That plainly is not the duty of the critic; if he does it, he's just being nice. The duty of the critic is to tell his readers whether a play goes well or not, whether its worth their time and money to attend. To tell what is, is his job, not what should be. This defense of my review I make hastily in a last minute effort to inform the critics he rally? Can he take a new lease on life? Can he be convinced that I am a pretty good guy after all, a heliuva columnist, a hound of a sports writer, a stomping down good theatrical reviews is that, doctor? What? I can't believe my own ears. You say he'll recover. Great! Fish in Ramekins Make a white sauce with 2 tablespoonfuls of butter, 1 tablespoon of flour and a cup of milk.

LAKE THE DREN ' By BETTY BARCLAY Don't blame the children if they stay out late at night, use language to you that you would never have dared use to your parents, drink nighballs, or do any of those things that the younger generation seems to delight in doing. Blame yourself. Your mother and father would not allow you to do such things, and they saw to it that you did not do them. Probably you had to start out as your son daughter did, but stern parents held you in check. If you have failed to hold your children in check, blame yourself, instead of trying to place the biane on Je children. You have failed as a parent. Oh! It hurts like sin to admit it, but it is the truth in nine times out of ten, at least. Several million children of tender years are now living in America. Ten years hence they will either be the type of youth we have today or worse, or better. It is up to today's parents, and not to the little tots, to decide which way they will go.

Combinations The methods of interpreting dreams are varied and uncertain, except for a few definite rules which the experienced number player closely observes. Should one dream of three digits, the matter is simple, he plays the number in combination, that is, arranged every way possible, also he plays the last two digits, known as the "bollo", which brings an amount small in comparison to a straight hit, but is not to be despised in these days of high rents and short rations. But should the dream demand one digit, then the dreamer is called upon to exercise great ingenuity in assembling the entire number. He plays the last two digits, middle or final digit. One and 0 are the figures generally supplied to complete the number, the player sometimes considering himself as "one" and raising the total one point. Developed to a Science Indeed number playing has been elevated to the scientific stage. There are those in Harlem who claim to be mathematicians, station whereby the number can be found. These people hit right along and many sumptuously furnished homes are due to this business-like pursuit of the elusive trip. Some of them are a profession, doing nothing else, and winger huge sums daily. Gin Mill to Church From gin mill to church, the people play the numbers. The gambler makes note of the number most often showing up in his hand. There is a box of pencils in the Sunday morning office, the minister announces the hymns. That the pastor for the most part are wise to this practice was proved some time ago, when, a well known Harlem minister, after announcing the hymns, was in the audience, sald: Now, if any of you all hit the number tomorrow, I want you to bring me some of the money, you hear?" Like a Big Lodge Number playing is a big organization, but one that is intensely human, in which there is a feeling of comradeship, but in the street one has to be promptly answered. To be promptly answered, Evrybody takes it for granted that everybody else play. After twelve o'clock noon, at time the number "comes out," crowds congregate in doorways, on street corners to discuss play. One thing may be noted. The typical number player never admits a straight, wide miss hitting the number. He is full of allibs. Edging close to these慕lov-les-compan meetings you will hear such expressions: "I hit it all," "I played that number yestidy!" or "I had it all but de las 'fagger, man, wasn't hitin' at it, now!" and most likely of all, "Well, suh, Mahm'to me to play a point above an a point below, but wouldn't do that," the confessor whispered no intimation whatever of what was coming out. Dead Give Numbers Although some people are said to have great fear of the dead, Harlem welcomes visitors from the spirit world, whether in dream or in reality, and the question they hasten to ask the "ghost" is not the reverential, "What will ye of me?" but the pointed, "Can you gimme a number?" This is no joke. Spiritualists do a big business in Harlem among both white and colored and are affold of lucky numbers given. How deeply steeped a certain element is in this sort of thing may be seen from the following incident: The meeting was divided into three parts, the first a brief religious gesture consisting of the singing of familiar hymns. Leaning on the Everlasting "What a Freud We Ridden in Jesus." The singing was both loud and earnest, there was in undercurrent or restlessness, and the audience, composed for the most part of the working class, sighed with relief when a collection "toy relief" was closed this part of the meeting. Magician Ne-t Next a magician entered with all sorts of tricks. This the audience also bore with interest, many small charges and addressed the gathering. There was an expectant hush as he made remarks preliminary to the man's arrival. Pompous, deliberate, he knew his audience, and 'layed upon their feelings as upon a many-stringed instrument. They may want to dance, they would do to go to Sister — the ab 'm pastor. But, using his exact words, "If you have lost your husband, sweetheart, you want to get them back, see me." Incense Needed This announcement caused much amusement. The man was with anxiety. "How many of you all didn't hit the numbers this week?" much in the pain. Hands fye7 up all over the room of a physician, loaching a room. "Huh. . . You know why you haven't been hikin'?" No sooons. He looked at me, darted him, and there, leaned over the pulpit, lifted an accusing finger and shot his reproach "them in the best provisor's hand." He was not been burning my incense. He prussed as if giving them time to realize the full weight of his guilt, and glanced around sekin, moral support of their, gibbons. Crystal Hokum That point settled, his female assistant passed around, small sheets of paper and pencils. On this we were instructed to put our answers into question, we wished answered. Then the papers were elected, tensibly burned, and the brother and assistant prepared to be written on the destroyed all s. The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, November 15, 1930 ONLY ASS OR LIAR Continued from Page One up prehistoric days as a model. Either Asses or Lars. Dr. Du Bois said that all colored people desire social equality with white people and that those who say that they do not, are either asses or Reactionary Policy He declared that there is at present a reactionary tendency. In the world under imperialism, which holds that the white races are a born race, the darker races, and that the darker races have no right to self rule. He related the cases of a doctor, dentist and Y.M.C.A. secretary of White Hall, who became wanted were living because they wanted to live in a better neighborhood. The Case Against Labor In referring to the actions of organized labor toward the Negro, Dr. Du Boli related the case of a delegate by the name of James Dennis, a member of the convention of Carnegie's Union, that he, Dennis, "believed that God created the Negro, but not as a carman and that if he was ever caught accepting the Negro on social equality, he would have him to an asylum." Dennis he said, was born in the north. He also cited a case of local 306 of New York City, who would accept colored electricians as members, levy the same taxation, and hold a meeting, sit in conference, but must have a white man to represent them. Jim Crow Separate Schools Speaking of persecution in education Dr. Du Bois said that in Kansas, there was a dual school system, although the Negro paid the same amount of taxes, white children were given $2,000,000 for school tuition and the colored children only $200,000. He referred to the treatment accorded colored students at Michigan University in the dormitory, and to the institutions in Boston. Dr. Du Bois said that he understood that Boston University segregated its colored girls in the dormitory, but he added with biting sarcasm that he hoped it was not as bad as it was supposed to be. Boston University was a Methodist school and not of course Methodists would not segregate. In Stores Speaking further on the segregation of colored girls, he said that many of the department stores and other places. The same condition exists with five men he knows who are scientists even though one of them is vice president of a scientific society and one is a convention of scientists in England. Carver Says "No" Prof. Carver said that he disproved of amalgamation of the white and colored races on the ground that it is questionable, whether the outcome would be advantageous for humanity. He claimed that the absence of the adivisibility is against the advisability of animal amalgamation He admitted that there is much injustice in the way Negroes are treated, but he deprecated militant leadership as a solving of the problem. once and a she coverting her from head to foot. Close beside her sat the brother, facing the audience, and consulting a small crystal. As he called out the Littals, the person would raise his hand for acknowledgment. This done, the girl would talk rapidly to the man who would in turn interpret her message to the seeker. What is what took place: "H. T." A 'well dressed middle-aged man raised his hand. Rapid talk under the sheet with the interpreter listening carefully. Then: "H. T. I. I wouldn't do. It'll hang on to it. you understand it. I'll wait after a while. kn-w what I mean?" H. T. looked wise and pleased. Large Motherly Woman Then the next one. "B. J." A large, mother woman of 50 or thereabouts raised a trembling hand. "Well, it looks pretty dark and I doubt if anything can do any good to it." The woman of the B. J. initials wilted visibly and promised to consult the brother in private next day. In addition, their answers each answer was given; a list of lucky numbers to play. Lucky incense was sold at fifty cents a package. This incense was to be burned every day around nine o'clock in the morning in order to keep the spirit whatsoever of Chinese there be. As the closing ceremony, the officiating brother lighted some incense at the foot of the rostrum and urged all to come and breathe deeply into the entire congregation flicked to the altar, some sheepishly, but most of them dreadfully in earnest. Several stood over the urn for several minutes, and then the woman reminded that others waited to gather some luck unto themselves. Numbers Sought Everywhere Numbers are obtained from the strangest sources. These are ordinary and supernatural plates, especially out-of-town ones; addresses visited, newly installed telephone numbers, bank books, checks, laundry marks and slips, currency, church hymns, numbers flashed on the moving picture screen on convicts, etc. He believes that all Harlem clings to regarding lucky sources of numbers. It is believed that a child can give you a lucky number—someone who never plays himself. Green players are always lucky. Green players are always the Amos to Andy popular radio pair, chanced to call a number on the radio which came out the following day, every telephone number called in their broadcast is played heavily the next day. If one accidentally puts down a number instead of the one he had in it, it is a nunch. He 'ill not change it. "The public news is another source of numbers. No. 101 was played, by Jack Diamond's hotel and room. numbers were played, also all numbers mentioned in connection with the case. In Harlem that address is played." Hope Springs Eternal It is difficult to stop playing the numbers once having begun. The constant chance of a hit holds the player in a grasp he cannot easily break. If not lucky today, perhaps tomorrow, and with tomorrow always coming, the play goes on and on. Many having played a certain number for months, even years, have become disgusted and dropped it. And maybe, as fate would have it, the number popped out the very next day.

But the experienced advertiser has learned that there is no advertising as effective as newspaper advertising, and so you'll find his message in THE AFRO, where he KNOWS IT WILL BE READ. And it's being done every day and these advertisers prove it: Says Mr. Cohen, president of the Commercial Savings Bank, "I am more than pleased with the results of my advertising campaign in The Afro-American, which covers a period of over three years." "I put a $6.00 ad in The Afro-American on Friday and got $20.00 worth of business on the following day from that ad," declares Mr. Small of Baltomotive Service. "There's hardly a week I don't get a music pupil out of my ad in The Afro," remarks Mr. Jack Thomas, noted musician and instructor—and the manager of the A. & P. Stores adds the statement that stores in colored neighborhoods take the lead in volume of sales, which he attributes largely to his continuous use of The Afro-American for the past four years.

He stated that his students are required to call on account of teachers not paying their obligations. N.C. Slayers Go to Death RALEIGH, N.C. (ANP)—The death chair in the state prison here claimed two victims here Friday morning when Massey Durham and Sloan paid with their lives for lives which in fits of anger they had taken.

HAD TON OF CUPS On February 13, 1926, the Amateur Athletic Union announced the Retirement from competitive athletics of Brookins, who was a former University of Iowa track captain and Olympic star. Brookins, who was scheduled to earn his career carried with him 23 track records, including every low hurdle record of consequence and about a ton of silver and gold cups, medals and trophies. Brookins is of mixed parentage, but prefers to be known as White. He associated with colored members of the Olympic team on his first trip to Europe. He is responsible for several of the relay records created at Iowa during the past four years, and Brookins is by Brookins are University of Iowa records. Two others are mile relay. In addition he holds two Big Ten records in the 600-meter low hurdles and Big Ten Ten in the 500-meter dash. In the National Collegiate Association the Hawkeye star has hung up the figures for the 220-yard hurdle around a curve, while the Midwestern A.A.U. holds the record for the hurdles, the century spring and the high and low hurdle races. The National A.A.U. has awarded him the record for the straightaway low hurdles, a mark of 23 seconds. Broekins met with hard luck in the Olympic 400-meter hurdle race when, after making the fastest time in both the preliminary and semifinal heats, he finished second to F. Morgan Taylor, another low product from Grinnell College, only to be disqualified for coming out of the hurdle and failing to clear a hurdle cleanly. Brookins will shatter no more records, however, for his definite retirement has been announced by the A.A.J. Instead of entering business, Had Ton of Cups track coach at his Alma Mater and recorded one of the best in the country. Randolph Threatened NASHVILLE. — Dr. Jones, president of Fisk University, is期望 Philip Randolph to leave Nashville by a threatening white man as he alighted from a train recently to deliver flowers at the invitation of the university. Continued from Page One several pairs of shoes they carried seemed to raise a doubt in the police-men's mind. They hardly could conceive that so many dresses and shoes could possibly have been used by the women, particularly when the Charles Street section could hardly be called fashionable as a society abode. And what deb wears six dresses in high school. Helen insisted that it was her first visit to New Haven and that Rene knew more about the Elm City than she did. Rene at first seemed reluctant to make any explanation but knew more information than they expected. Ex-New Haven Rene said that she is a former New Haven married woman having lived in Maggett and busy domestic burdens. She also told the police that her husband is seeking a divorce and openly and cheerfully said that the opportunity to get his legal separation. She was equally frank in her admission, the police said, of having been a week previous. She relied and boasted of her association with the man she loved, the police said. Seek Motives Police have since been trying to learn what prompted the pretty white women to associate with the women been entertained and all are correct insofar as the police know, for the girls left hurriedly without making any explanation of motives behind their rather indiscriminate actions. The girls were given an hour to leave town and their lovers were put on probation. Examination of the records at the police station in New Haven fails to reveal that there is any divorce action pending involving Rene such as she related to the police, unless the name she gave was a false one.

DEAR PANSY: What with Turkey Day just around the corner, and with the Lincoln-Howard game in the offing, and everybody hectic over what to be the important task, which is the more important—to see and be seen in the fashion parade or to worry over whether the old Alma Mater will win or lose?—what time has Madame and Mademoiselle Society had for entertaining this week? Be sure to see the shopping and doing their duty to their bridge clubs, it has been one rush of a week for everyone. Ethel Entertains the L.L.L.'s There were one or two quite small, but nevertheless splify bridge parties. Ethel Waters, was hostess to her club. Ethel Waters, was a guest. There were a few guests, Dorothy Coleman, Angela Bishop, Marlon Jackson and Marie Murphy; and the three were guests, Lois McBeth, McBeth, Mildred Grooms, VI Williams, Mildred Jones, Mae Taylor and Ivy Boone, who played and enjoyed Ethel's delicious餐. Marion Jackson and Marile Murphy piled up high bridge scores and were given first and second guest prizes, respectively, while Merria McCormick (with the case of the clever VI is the usual think) took the first and second club prizes. Gwendolyn Taylor is Hostess And Gwendolyn Taylor had the "bridge" prize per Madison Avenue home on Saturday among the guests were Ola Tighman. Catherine Williams, Madeline Garrison, Edythe Jones and Rosalie Rawlings. The high scorers and Madeline of the guests, and Catherine Carroll, Helen Hughes and Helena Thomas of the Aces. Mattie Coasey's Bridge Party Another of the nicest of bridge parties—just small, clubby and jolly. We were there on a day, when the W.W.'s played bridge with that charming matron. Around the tables we were seen, Maya Brown Carrie Brown, a Miss Gray and a Mrs. Johnson. I didn't get the names, Anna McMullen, and Christine Fax Christine Barber, Lillian Parrott and Valle Sewell. There were only two guests—Christine Barber and Josephine Gibbons. I was ash-bore the bridge trophies home. At. Pimlico Say, Passby names: you seem to the pamice track, you are one of the minority. Now, on Saturday for instance, I hear that just a lot of the crowds were there. Possibly I had better sort of whisper names, cause I haven't found how Daddy Wood feels. I don't know that he is just awfully tight on his little teacherettes—Oh, well. But among these brave bold males, I have heard of that Dr. William Wright, not only spent a pleasant afternoon at the track, but in his usual clever dress, that he was extremely profitable as well. And Dr George Allen, didn’t come away mourning either, and that handsome York-she of the swellantic wardrobes who set all our hearts a-enyving—were in evidence and as busy as Henrietta to Play for Sargeant Play Pansy, we're getting a regular hall of fame among our Baltimore youngsters. Just last week, I told you I had been at the Sargeant School swimming team. Now Mrs. Brown who visited her in Boston last week, has brought back the good tidings that not only have been admitted to the choral club and has been selected as pianist for the annual student play that the school sponsors.

Ruth's rest at the dance was the handsome Bill Bell, of fame where the scarlet and gray football team is mentioned. Needless to say the official "king" was a fitting concert. The royal pair will occupy a space between a team of former Ohio State players and a team of all-col-player players at Nell Park on Turkey Day. Lincoln-St. Paul Game As for the football games, I mustn't forget the Lincoln-St. Paul game at Lincoln. Saturday. It was a mertish sort of day, that I thought lots of Baltimore would have gone over. I told though that the crowd was small. Male Wright and young Harry Cummings were there. And Etta Burwell and Alfred Hughes of Philly were among the other couples. Possibly they have taken his studies at the law school of Howard. The Thomas Calloways, formerly of this city, were also seen—very much internecidely at Provident Hospital, was also seen about Baltimoreans at Banquet of Johnson-Mitchell When Dr. Charles S.

DALLAS, Texas—(A.N.P.) — The Texas Interracial Commission abruptly closed its annual session on Wednesday, Baptist Church (white), Saturday afternoon, when Dr. O. A. Fulbright, of Bishop College, offered a motion to adjourn, following a moment of excitement and congratulations from the Klux Klan Klan asking to speak. Following the reading of resolutions and the report of several committees a tall, lanky, cow-punching type of klansman rose to the floor, after addressing the chair, statu "I am a member of the Ku Klux Klan. I've sat through all the sessions of the Klan, taking notes of what has been taking place here. A complete report will appear in the Klan's official organ. I want an opportunity to tell the colored members of the group, what the Ku Klux think of them." White Women Clash Breathless silence momentarily prevailed. During this brief period of confusion and indecision, white the chair was trying to decipher the question, the fuesque given to the champion of white supremacy, Mrs. Jessie Daniels Ames, formerly of Texas, now head of the Women's Department of the Interracial Commission which was headquartered in Georgia and voiced an opposition opinion to having the Klan come into what was considered private meeting of members of the Interracial group protesting the Klan philosophy and the discredit of the Negro membership. Another white woman, member of the commission, disagreed with Mrs. Ames, and felt that the spoken words fell the Negroes what the Klan could do for them if they stayed in their place. A cross debate ensued between Mrs. Ames and lady which terminated in Mrs. Ames calling for a referendum among the colored people. She said: "I think this matter should be decided by the colored members of this body since they are not white, and I say whether they want to hear it." It was at this moment that Dr. Fuller rose ostensibly to speak for the Texas interracial Commission chair, he said: "I move we adjourn Sine die." Thus the three-day session of the Texas interracial Commission came to its close unceremoniously. Roman Catholic Church Lava Cornerstone With the Rt. Rev. Mgr. John A.
