WRECKERS OF MEMPHIS BANK ARE SET FREE
Paroled After 2 Years by Governor
Nashville, Tenn.. June 21.—Alfred F. Ward, LeRoy W. Williams and E. J. Rasberry, bank officials who wrecked the Fraternal Solvent Savings bank at Memphis two years ago, were paroled here Wednesday from the state penitentiary by Gov. Henry Horton.
Ward was president of the defunct bank, and at the time of its failure signed a confession that he stole more than $50,000 of the institution's funds. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison. Williams and Rasberry, minor officials, were given five years each in the penitentiary.
Closed In 1927
The Fraternal Solvent Savings bank, one of the oldest and largest financial institutions of its kind in the state, was founded later part of December, 1827, on orders of the Tennessee state bank examiners, who found shortages totaling more than $4,000,000. The bank was mainly owned mainly to the embezzlements of Ward. Thousands of depositors throughout Tennessee lost their life's savings and hundreds of accounts kept by children. Ward's parole, it is stated, was engineered by Dr. J. B. Martin, a Memphis druggist, who was vice president of the bank at its time of failure. Dr. Martin, who is Ward's personal friend, is alleged to have been untiring in his efforts to get the bank relaunched. He took several trips here to see Ward and was here last week for a final conference with the prisoner. The other vice presidents of the bank were rested when the bank failed, but the case against whom was dismissed about two weeks ago, and Wayman Walker, a banker, was rested after Ward and his associates were taken to the penitentiary.

Secret Order Elated Over Court Fight
By R. C. FISHER
St. Louis, Mo., June 21.—Members of the Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine throughout all the country will observe Sunday, June 30, as a day of jubilee and should rejoice because of their distinct victory through a recent decision of the United States supreme court granting them their constitutional rights.
Give Praise to Allah
Cassar R. Blake Jr. of Charlotte, N.C. imperial potentate of the Order of Mystic Shrine, has asked the entire nobility of North and South American to repair to some church at an convenient location to their subordinate organizations and have an appropriate sermon delivered and offer thanks to "Allah" for delivering them from their oppressors. The United States supreme court has completely reversed the decision rendered against our citizens by the supreme court of Texas in their Sh. law suit in Houston. The white Shriners of Texas obtained a two-aged injunction, which not only crippled the organization in that state, but it had a more evil tendency finally to entirely wreck the order in North America. The question of the rights of our folk to purchase fraternal regalia and rituals and use them as freely as the white organizations became the foundation for the resentful suit which was finally decided. Because of their firmness of mind to endure through 11 years of battle for their fraternal privileges our citizens won a victory that is far-reaching. Under the decree of the supreme court of Texas a member of our Race was a victim of the injustice to which a white man objected if he had a similar suit. Had the decision of the Texas high court been suspended, the court, our government, declared imperial potentate Blake, could not have maintained the Episcopal Method, Baptist or other churches whose system of religion was the same as that of the white churches.

In an article by delivery by Justice Van Dewaver, every red-blooded Prince Hall Mason is asked to use his influence to the end that the fraternity on Sunny Isles determines its determination to exist. As an attestation of their constitutional rights to wear emblems and insignia of the fraternity, its member is urged to attend the next annual meeting of the imperial council at Chicago, August 11 to 17, where Desert Sentinel President James O'Neill says the imperial executive of Shriners, should cause all Masons of every degree to be present in Chicago and show to men the respect, dignity and health in securing for them a right that has been pending in the courts for 11 years, their appreciation for the unselfish sacrifice they have made.
A Chicago law firm of Denison, Watkins & Smith represented the enjoined Shriners throughout the Haitian coast in 1992 and their issue in 59 years to plead a case before the Texas supreme court.

Mrs. Hoover Disproves "Inferiority" Myth
SOUTH BOSTON, MA — In an organization, Dr. Tress, Tex., has been formed in Texas known as the Anti-Tea society which will have for its purpose the depopularizing of tea. Heretofore the white tea as the society drink in an effort to appe the society of England, but the fact that Mrs. Oscar DePriest is known to have embarked on the depopularizing of the tea of the land, Mrs. Herbert Hoyer, the white South has suddenly found tea very distasteful. In an organization first discussed it here it went on record as granting a purely Nordic southern drink and Coco Cola had the inside track until some wise member of the organization, the Candler, the late Coco Cola king, stole his formula from an African and that the chief ingredients of the drink is looking for a new drink—it doesn't want tea because Mrs. DePriest drinks it, and it doesn't want coffee because it is the national drink in America where there is no color line.

Washington, D. C., June 21.
—Not since the Boston tea party in 1773 has society's favorite beverage caused such a national sensation as it did last Wednesday when Mrs. Oscar DePriest, wife of Congressman DePriest of Illinois, sipped the liquid at the White House with Mrs. Herbert Hoover, wife of President Hoover, and other ladies of the congressional circle.
Immediately after news of the social upheaval at the United States, Dixie capitol buildings and editorial offices irated from the thunder of denunciations hurled at the president and the first lady of the land for entertaining Mrs. DePriest, bringing the myth of "white supremacy."
Texas Rebukes Mrs. Hoover
The first report of the South's fury over the courtesy to Mrs. Dearfries came from the Texas state capitol building, from a meeting of 26 to 2 criticized Mrs. Hoover for drinking tea with Mrs. Dearfries. The discussion lasted several hours. Miss Margie Neel, the chairwoman of the Texas house, Hoover had violated the most sacred custom of the white house—a custom that had been lived up to since the days of Washington, the Texas house, where the secreal state, stated: "We how our heads in shame and regret any express in the strongest and most eminent conundrum and illumination at Mrs. Hoover's conduct. Gov. Dan Moody is alleged to have stated that he would sign the official resolution to abolish the Texas legislature and that he could not fully express his disapproval and disgust at the conduct of Mrs. Hoover.
The rumors that the next step of the Texas solons will be to remove the portrait of Alexander Hamilton from behind the speakers' desk, his mother was of African descent.
Oklahoma Undecided
Oklahoma soils at the capitol in Oklahoma City are considering a resolution censuring Mrs. Hoover for her involvement in white house. A resolution was introduced in the lower house, but action was deferred after a spirited debate. Oklahoma is the state with the highest number of years of white hundreds of citizens were shot down in cold blood because their skins were dark. Oklahoma lower house at Tallahassee Monday adopted a resolution condemning "certain social policies of the administration in entertaining those with white hairs with white ladies." The resolution called on Glenn B. Skippe, Republican national committeeman of Florida to the president of the United States to protest the house of representatives and that he use his influence with the president to the end that the president will discontinued." In introducing the resolution Representative May said, "The state of Florida has been battered by actions of the representatives declared the voters of Florida should be condemned instead of Mrs. Hoover Equality of white and Negro races.

SCOUT IDEALS SHATTERED BY JIM CROWISM
Eight Troops Turn in Their Charters
Philadelphia, Pa., June 21.—Committeemen, Scoutmasters and others representing eight troops under the jurisdiction of the Philadelphia council of Boy Scouts of America. Thursday voted unanimously to sever all relationship with the council and returned carters of the troops to that body after ten months of appeal and waiting for the rescinding of a segregation order issued by the council. The eight Scout troops were barred from participating in the privileges of Treasure Island, a Boy Scout summed up solely on account of race and color. The segregation order was issued June, 1928, verbally to Scoutmaster H. B. Harigus, James H. M. Harigus, and inter to a committee, composed of Rev. John R. Logan, Rev. David H. Harigus, James H. M. Harigus, and inter to execution by barring Troop No. 32, under Scoutmaster E. S. Smith, from the island. Committeemen and Scoutmasters presented against the grounds that it was ancalled for, unchristianlike and violated the very principles of the Boy Scout movement. The discriminated troops met representatives of the council last November, at which time the situation was freely discharged, and the letter was received from the council, stating that "in the interest of scouting as a whole, it could not see its purpose, in doing the present call in this respect."
The segregation order. It is said, was made to conform with an agreement in the state, viz. "where there is a possibility of bodily contact, the mingling of the two races must not be (Continued on Page 2)

FIVE KILLED 54 INJURED IN AFRICAN RIOT
FIVE KILLED 54 INJURED IN AFRICAN RIOT
Union Stirs Fight on European Cooks
Cape Town, South Africa, June 21.—(Special)—Five persons are dead, 54 injured and scores in jail as a result of a riot which broke out at Durban Monday night.
Five of those dead are natives. Because the temper of natives and Europeans are still ugly, another child is feared before the end of the week. The cause is traceable to a native organization, the Industrial and Commercial Workers' union, which is numbering 100 members of violence. The natives are opposed to the Europeans' method of treatment. They objected strenuously this week to the preparation of their beer by white men, saying that they were not attending of attending to their own affairs.
Natives Attacked
Several of the natives were attacked by European cooks. When worms mashed through their nativities brought large numbers and began to fight the foreigners. A mab of whites harcored itself in the native's hill, but was subsequently driven out by the natives. A fierce fight followed, in which the hall was wrecked. Rickshaw drivers commandeered as men with ambulances to take away the injured, and dressing stations were hurriedly improvised. Trouble has been brewing ever since the war was elected. He is bitterly opposed to the Africans being in power and fighters at every opportunity, it is said. The campers are blaming Hettzog for the trouble. Heaton Nichols, member of parliament from Zululand, says that the riots offer a cynical commentary upon the war. Smith who was a candidate in the race for the prime minister post, was favorable toward the natives, and it is believed that the native elected this trouble would not have occurred.

SLEW CHURCH MEMBER IN QUARREL; JUDGE SHOWS NO MERCY
Youngstown, Ohio, June 21.—Rev. Maston Rhodes, former pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist church, must die in the electric chair on Sept. 25 for the murder last march of Otto Campbell, a member of his church. The 52-year-old minister was found guilty of first degree murder by a jury Friday. Judge David G. Jenkins immediately passed sentence. A motion for a new trial was filed Saturday by Rhodes attorneys, and if the motion is overruled, the case will be taken to the court of appeals.
The boastful minister was brought into court when the jury announced its readiness to return a verdict. He expressed the opinion that he would be freed and sent home. Rev. Rhodes sat with folded hands and the jurors, as they filed into the jury box, did not look at him. The foreman, Harry G. Frank (white), stated that the jurors had all voted for a verdict of guilty with at mercy. The prisoner wept and his head dropped forward while he mumbled words which no one seemed to sense.

Beas For Mercy
"Has the defendant anything to say before I pronounce judgment upon him?" the court inquired. "I beg for mercy," Rev. Rhodes cried. "I can show you no mercy." Judge Jenkins said. "That was left to me when I shot you down when you shot down this man. You have only a higher judge to look forward to." Judge commended the jury upon its courage to return a verdict of guilt in this case and hoped that it "marks the awakening of a new conscience in this land that the law is being enforced." For fully ten minutes Judge Jenkins condemned the prisoner as a "wolf in sheep's clothing." "a blot upon his race." "fettering sore on the body," he added, wrinkles on Rhodes' face became more pronounced and drawn. His shoulders dropped forward. He asked, "You have injured your race more than you did this man you so bravely killed." Judge Jenkins told him, "I know the judge that your people are brave. You have dragged down and cast more reproach upon your race by this one act than a score of good men of it can uplift it in a lifetime."
Styles Him "a Wolf"
"You boasted that you helped elect our mayor, you pretended to be a leader in this community. We hang our heads in shame in that our body politician was sitting in this case. You cast an odium on sacred law, not only the civil law of our land. You ravished tables and stone. You killed a townfolk. You are a wolf in sheep's clothing, a blot upon your race."
Rev. Rhodes was arrested at his residence and lodged in jail awaiting the outcome of the injuries inflicted on Campbell. Campbell died at St. Elizabeth's hospital the day after. He was lost from a loss of blood and shock. Rev. Rhodes was immediately charged with first degree murder. He was brought before Judge Mark Moore and pleaded not guilty from Campbell, who was expelled from the church of which Rhodes was the pastor. Some time later the pastor and Campbell engaged in a first fight. The police, both and Campbell were arrested. They were fined $5 and costs each for disturbance, in municipal court. It was just two weeks after the fight that the fatal shooting occurred.

BOSTON HAS CULTURE, BUT WHAT BRAND?
Critics Cheat to Make Contest Lily-White
Boston, Mass., June 21. Art and culture haven't a chance against race hatred even in Boston, it was proven here last Saturday when Mrs. Nadyne Roberts Waters, dramatic soprano of Cincinnati, Ohio, although acclaimed winner by popular applause of the state preliminary contest given by the National Federation of Music clubs, was denied a rating by the judges which would have entitled Mrs. Waters to complete in the finals.
This is the second time within the last year that Mrs. Waters has been cheated in contest contests sponsored by the federation.
Secures Legal Aid
Determined in her efforts to break down the barriers of racial prejudice so strongly built by the federation of Waters, who was the victim of unjust judges in the biennial musical contest held by the federation here last month, secured legal aid and was sent to the court. The granting permission to enter the state's preliminary contest. The contest was held last Saturday at Steiner hall, and as was expected for the court, Mrs. Waters was again the loser.
The decision of the judges was not made until some time later in Jordan hall, which was unusual as Mrs. Waters had been sent after a contest. Another unusual act was that the five judges sat together and exchanged papers as soon as Mrs. Waters began singing. A contest was held on the score sheets from one to five, this contestant was Mrs. Waters. It is believed that this change was made to eliminate Mrs. Waters due to the fact that the scores were selected to sing in the finals.
Teacher's Statement
Clarence B. Shirley (white), faculty teacher and head of the normal department at the New England Conservatory of Music, was one of the first women to be a music director, but did not know that he was acting as a judge in a contest in which his pupil had been declared the fifth ranking singer. When told he was not the only one who means was she under any of the four selected to sing in the national finals. He further declared that "he did not believe the National Federation of Music Clubs would permit a student to sing in the national finals." In an interview with Mrs. Waters she stated that she could not hope to be selected in view of the attitude of the federation to sing. Race, but she was signed she had partly broken down some of the barriers built by the club." She was certain that her efforts would help some artist in the future. Mrs. Waters was delighted in knowing she had accomplished what she intended.

Color Line Drawn by War Department
131. Burton E. Bowen, acting assistant to the adjutant general of the ar department, has definitely let it be known that it is the policy or the ar department to allow civilians in. In a letter to William W. Hunt, 6540 Vernon Ave., who made application for enrollment at the citizens' military training camp for the Chicago district, Major Bowen Included a copy of the letter and a retaliary of war and released by Gen. Robert C. Davis, adjutant general, that sets forth plainly the attitude of the government on this subject.
The order reads:
Subject: C. M. T. C. for Colored candidates.
To the commanding general of schools.
L. II sufficient applications are received from qualified Colored applicants to warrant approval of position for white and Colored students, or separate organizations for instruction and separate messes will be maintained as separate compa-
sions is now the custom in the regular army. Colored organizations shall be maintained as separate compa-
sions.
The government, it seems, is following its policy of making this a key element in the exegge in time of war, when it becomes everybody's country. Young men seeking to protect this country in time of need must do it to the accompaniment of prejudice and huttonism, and these training camps, mannified by all Americans, he must do in order to regenerate conditions. And judging from comments of young men who have learned this fact, there will be no segregated compulsory school; there will be no one to attend them.

Alleged Ax Murderer
New Orleans, La., June 21—Trial of Julius "Dum-Dum" Roberts, alleged axed murdered, will be delayed rules governing insanity proceedings. With test cases before the state supreme court, the trial of Roberts and an uncle of Julius, who insanity plea will be delayed until the status of the act covering insanity is determined. The court is debating whether the original law or the amended law of 1928 is correct. The two laws differ in respect to insanity. The law a man's insanity may be judged.
The original law ruled that a man was to be judged first by a commissional jury. If this body found him sane he must go to trial. The 1923 law required that a person shall be tested once by a commission. Upon that decision rests the chance of being placed in an asylum. Roberts was examined by the commission recently and found sane. Exact date of death was determined. He was charged with the murder of a woman and her son during a robbery of their store.

PATIENTS ABUSE PRIVILEGES IN NATIONAL SOLDIERS HOME
Milwaukee, Wis. June 21—Conditions are getting critical because of the complaint made against many of our ex-service men in the hospital and brought by former patients who declare that the bad actions of the ignorant class who know how to conduct themselves, severely discharged patient was forced to leave before his treatment had been finished because the ward was full, and he was noisy and unpleasant that he could not rest. He says that no one need ask where he was, who yells, who sings, arguments and in many instances swearing serve as a directory to all those who report that the nurses never enter the wards alone. He conducts a product that brings about segregation and then we are the first to yell. The self-respecting people are as quickly as they can. It is no wonder that other people do not want any contact with them. Doctor and attendants are said to be very considerate, but the constant abuse of privilege is the law is finally made, hitting at this low class, a great cry for help will go up, but records will be against

Boston Social Worker Not Influenced by Prejudice
---
Alfred F. Wittman, executive secretary of the Children's Aid association, a social welfare dinner held at the Women's City club, remarks at the dinner which occasioned considerable comment from Chicagoans and which resulted in an appeal to the Chicago Defender. Mr. Wittman, in the letter, which follows in full, defended the race in the statement of the incident which was discussed in the editorial. Here is the letter: The defender for June 1 is a feel very badly that my remarks at the dinner meeting at the Woman's Club are interpreted as they apparently were.
If you were present at the meeting speaking on the subject of placing delinquent boys and girls at board in foster homes rather than send them to school, would you be the very fact of commitment, be stumped with the sense of criminality and the would-be association with the world more of delinquency than when sent to school in a institution which I serve in place of foster homes many types of delinquent boys and girls and doing things happen, gas a number of illustrations to show the types of delinquent boys and girls that I had seen when I was a time I had, the treatment which enabled these children to behave in the tellent, loving manner in foster homes which had in many instances been denied them in their homes.
I felt that a talk of this sort would be insincere if I did not lay down serious disadvantages to foster home placement, so I enumerated the serious disadvantages to foster home placement, so I enumerated the serious disadvantages to foster association in a period of seven years, many of them delinquent children from the courts. Among them had occurred in the placement of a foster mother at 15, a foster association in a period of seven years, many of them delinquent children from the courts. Among them had occurred in the placement of a foster mother at 15, a relative of the foster mother in whose home he was living, our organization may that any one thing was the cause of it. It is never possible in a sentence or two the boy's background, which was as follows:
Mother Unmarried
He was born to an unmarried white woman and until he was 9 years old, he was the home of his grandmother, the identity of his mother having been concealed from him through false identities, the time that he came into the foster after running away from an institution, he learned that the statements made to him in regard to his foster mother learned that he was an illegitimate child, and at this same time the blood he applied to applaud.

expense of time and money, which we were glad to spend if we could help undo the injustice that had been done the boy from Infancy, and who he was to him in a white family, where he found some interesting boy companions. He was happier here than he was in the past, and he have every reason to think that he would have grown into normal men, if it had not been for the quarrel with the brother of the foster father, if it had not been for the man took a dislike to the boy and no doubt the boy reacted unanimously to an altercation in which the man called the boy a name, which to him was of race and paternity, the boy, then almost 16, endowed with a sometimes came further upset emotionally and secured a revolver with which he could further upset emotionally and when the quarrel broke out anew. While the above is a little fuller we were glad to spend, it differs in no material way.
I am of course entirely in accord with the nature of criminal trials. The gist of the episode was not that the boy committed the offense because he knew nothing of the father's habits or characteristics—but that a conflict in the trial itself and himself and facts of life of over which he had no control, fanned by an unkind and unjustified, brought about the final desire that for the sake of securing a more friendly attitude toward the defendant, brought them will be good enough in the light of what I have said to reread your tutorial and to make any sense if you think they should be made.

COURT GRANTS REPRIEVE TO BANK BANDITS
Glover and Swan Seek Execution Stay
After listening to lengthy arguments Tuesday by Attys, Richard E. Brooks and Joseph Lofton, representing the three Franklin bank bandits, Lafon Fisher, Leonard Shadow and Leon Brown, under sentence of death and scheduled to die in the electric chair at midnight Thursday, Judge Robert Gentzel in the criminal court granted a stay of execution until July 18. Defense counsel declared their intention to appeal to the supreme court for the death sentence for the murder of Martin B. French, guarded in the bank, who was shot to death in a skunk escaping with several thousand dollars. Five men are alleged to have participated in the holdup, which evoked guilty from the witness stand during the trial of his companions and was sentence for both bandit, Henry Dixon, escaped and is still at large.
Testimony Illegal
In their arguments Tuesday before Judge Gentzel, Mr. Westbrooks and Mr. Lofton contended that the defense did not prove which one of the five bandits fired the shot that killed the aged bank guard. Such scientific testimony, defense counsel argued, did not prove which one of the five bandits fired the shot that killed the aged bank guard. That, but the attorneys declared that the jury was unduly influenced before rendering their verdict of death by listening over the radio to robbery reports. This charge and also the declaration that two of the jurors, during the trial of the bandits, were permitted to be acquitted were emphasized a few weeks ago by defense counsel in their motion for a new trial. Judge Gentzel overruled the motion and sentenced the defendants to die June 11. The state board of pardons and parole took under administration the charge of another stay of execution to Napoleon Glover and Morgan Swan, scheduled also to die in the chair June 12. The hearing was held Tuesday morning.
Glover and Swan to Die
Glover and Swan, on a plea of guilty before Judge Marcus Kavanaugh, were sentenced to 30 years in prison for the murder of Charles Metlock, a Pullman porter, who was killed in the holdup of a drug store in 1930 and a third bandit participated. The third member of the bandit trio, Vanzeder Donthercaux, was sentenced. The condemned pair, sentenced to June 6, were granted a two weeks stay at the last moment before the trial of the issues in the case upon which defense counsel pleaded that the death sentence commended the judge Kavanaugh, who sentenced the bandits, recommended a few days ago to life in prison. But unless the board makes such recommendation to Governor Louis L. Emmerson, the governor will be free with the execution, it was stated.

T., June 21—Arrested on a grand larceny charge preferred by the judge, by an undertaker, who cashed a bad check for $24 for her when she came to hit him and sought to retrieve him, a relative who had just died, Mrs. Natalie Smith, 21, 221 W. 1224 St., was arrested in Quade in the Washington Heights court pending a further hearing of other charges against her. By several undertakers of having defrauded them out of small sums of money on the ground, the undertaker was being retaliated to handle the body. On this assumption the woman, according to the story, had been accused of defrauding the undertaker until she could collect the insurance for the "death." After several court operations and a plea, she was sent out by the victims to their colleagues to be on the lookout for the perpetrator, for when she victimized Turner. When he learned her story was a fake and that the check he cashed for her swore out a warrant for her arrest.
Mrs. Smith was taken into custody at her home by Detective Burns and her husband by Turner. She was identified by Turner and several other undertakers as the woman who had defrauded them.

Keep out of "Negro" waiting rooms. That can be easily done by staying in the street until train time. It is better to bear some discomfort than to contend with the hooligans, to institute Ghundi, master mind of India, whose passive resistance is the loudest protest against the indigents heaped upon his people. We should not allow dirty hovels offered to us as waiting rooms, while foreigners, reeking with garlic and loaded with the stench of fish markets, unclean homes and march pastly past to their seats "white shoes." Dont submit. Do without.

GREENVILLE IS ON VERGE OF ANOTHER FLOOD
Levee Breaks Not Far From City
Greenville, Miss., June 21—(Special) This city, wrecked in 1827 by the rampaging waters of the mighty Mississippi, is this week on the verge of another flood. The threat of a washout stands before Greenville while business men, planters and convicts work side by side in an effort to hold back the pounding waves that shot a spout of sand and water 10 feet into the air Monday morning, and convicts were bequeathed a mile and a half below the city. Immediately the alarm was sounded, precipitating a panic. Residents of Greenville found themselves inundation when the city was flooded for several weeks. Housewives sought high places for their valuable possessions, upper floors, newcomers and tenderest fed the city. The mayor ordered closings all of business and called for volunteers to save lives. Within a short time, 1,000 men were working like beavers laying willow mats, brush and sand around the city, and 1,000 men behind the whole area of 200 by 200 feet. Before another 1,000 men had arrived, including 300 state convicts who were working higher up.
Levee engineers sent out word that the odds were in favor of the levee holding. The convoy was felt in the fact that the convoy has fallen 3-10 of a foot below the crest of the present rise, with indications of a further fall.

not say notorious) decision, the supreme court adjourned, not to meet again until next October. The supreme court just handed down by the supreme court is the most disheartening and appalling since that famous one rendered by Chief Justice Tanye in 1857. The court has no rights which a Negro had no rights which a white man was bound to respect. Those were not his exact words, of course, but that was the meaning which they meant. The position just taken by the supreme court is all the more shocking, because several state courts have already decided in the Colorado Court of Appeals the circumstances. The supreme courts of Kentucky, Michigan and Rhode Island, not to mention other states, have all declared it to be illegal and against the policy to segregate Colored people.
A few years ago James Cobb, now judge of the municipal court, carried Mrs. Helen Smith in the court. She had bought a house on S. St., in a block in which the property owners had decided no Colored people could live. They had been allowed to already cited. Then the judges of the supreme court refused to consider the case at all on the ground that the court had been taken up to the court on a writ of certiorari, they said, while it was carried there on an appeal. For that this case was summarily dismissed.
But the judges of the supreme court have treated the cases which closely as they did Mrs. Curtis's case, although these cases have been taken to the court in the manner prescribed by the constitution. York is considered one of the finest constitutional lawyers in the country. He has known the law, he knew counsel. These men petitioned the supreme court to review the decisions of the court of appeals and to argue that the agreements entered into by white people to exclude Colored people from certain sections constituted a trade contrary to public policy.
They also argued that the "covenants were so contrary to public policy and to the state," and that the unreasonable and discriminatory that the court of equity cannot enforce them without doing violence to the state." The arguments made by those things moved the judges of the supreme court. The arguments made by those who wish to segregate Colored people did have a powerful effect.
The lawyers for this side declared that the case was of no general importance whatsoever, "that the restrictive covenant has been enforced by the District of Columbia, but that on the contrary the public policy of the District of Columbia permits and recognizes as necessary the segregation of Colored and white persons under certain conditions." The judges of the supreme court evidently agreed with this opinion. This decision is indeed a cruel blow:
Washington, D. C., June 21—Rev. James Deute Brown, well-known Congregational minister, who came to work from Amiston, Ala. died Wednesday. His body was carried to his former home in the South for Interment. Rev. Brown was born in St. Crook, Virgin Island, in 1834, and he set up to see the life of a sailor 10 years later and entered Talladega college in Alabama. Rev. Brown was ordained a minister in 1839. For years he held the position he was his pastoring in Alabama he was credited with saving two men from the gallows by proving their innocence. Survivors of his pastoring two daughters, Mrs. Hallie Rinen, Miss Julia Deute Brown, who is a medical student at Howard university, and Miss Cora Rush, an adoption lawyer from Chicago, S. D., Charles D and George D. Brown.

Hampton, Va., June 21—Quite a ripple is being caused in and around Gloucester by the excited fish who have interpreted the wild waves to warn them of the danger, who is preparing to cast a dangerous bait in their direction. The personage causing all this commotion is R. Moton, principal of the Tuskegee institute, Alabama. Dr. Moton paused long enough at Hampton institute to catch a fish, of which he hurriedly left for clear, cool streams and conquest. A host of assistants followed to carry back the doctor's catch. Gloucester is the second and one of his favorite haunts as soon as his duties relent.

The delegates, as the "hot dog" mayor, fairly refused to welcome the Pythians. His reply to W. L. Dickson's request was, "Va, that's all there is to it." Following excellent reports from the state officers, the delegates re-elected the enclave or another term, the next state convention will be held in San Antonio.

A terrible blow has just been dealt us sure enough! And the supreme court of the United States has dealt it. One of the last things it did before ending its term for the summer was to hand down a decision which curtains our international capital where we choose. Anybody known to have African blood in his veins can be prevented from seeing buying of property not want him to live, provided they go about it in the right way. And that "right" way is simply to make a purchase of property in the form of property in Colored persons.
Then the second case which was brought before the court in Philadelphia Pl. More than 100 residents had entered into an agreement that for 21 years none of the properties should be "used by or sold, consigned or otherwise" to the property in that restricted district had no right to it either. There was nothing for the Colored men who had bought the houses on the property in that restricted petition the supreme court to reverse this decision. They hoped to get their rights as American citizens and many of us believed that the decision would be made by the court of appeals would be reversed by the United States supreme court. But our hopes have been dashed rather than the decision being made by the court of the land has refused to review the action of the lower courts and thus upholds the decision shutting Colored people out of any secession of the land and wishes to exclude them.

Intercollegiate Club Has Third Educational Rally
A challenge to youth featured the third annual educational day fete of the Washington intercollege club, the Gifted Baptist Church Sunday, June 16 at 3 p.m. Frederick Robb, director of the club, presiding. The club, well as author of "Pedro Garino," who delivered the main address, said in part: "No people in the world have a genuine interest than the African race. Among our millions are physical, mental and moral resources of tremendous magnitude, still unutilized, and it is the problem of graduating students to carry their Race forward." "Among the problems confronting them are the need of an authoritative code of ethics, the need of an accurate account of the students' matters such as sanitation, civic growth, the need of thorough mastery of crafts and professions, and above all the selections of the game."
The speaker proceeded to tell his audience of the past glories and powers of our Race in Africa; a Race in Africa that is not a race of attitude, but rather by a thirst for knowledge and truth—a search that has left its imprint upon science for all time. He decried the invasion of the European nation whose occupies most of the former colonies to every drop of red African blood in the whole world, and to our racial integrity.
Bronzed and weatherbeaten by his trenchant flowing gray locks, slightly ruffled by a cooling breeze that swept through an open window, the captain became visibly moved by his emotions as he reacted much of the past to the present, and that he hearers not to forget that they should not fall as they were possessed of a rich heritage.
"Each one among you must discover his own salvation and discover these truths for himself," the speaker said.

‘What are we coming to?
What do our people want from performers?
High-class, intelligent vaudeville acts get asmall hand, while
acts that should be relegated to the ash heap bring down the
house with applause, but the noisy applause comes from folks
who will not keep the theater going.
We as a race are the best in the world on writing letters—
on the wrong thing.
Some times these letters have a suspicious smell. Evidently
some folks who needed work on the stage were causing some
of the letters to be written. That's an old game. Let us cite
an example.
When the Regal theater opened in Chicago the Right Quintet
was billed and to the best thinking people were a decided hit
because those gentlemen represented the highest in their art.
Letters poured in against them. Why? Nobody knows.
‘The public is much to blame. Had those who appreciated
good acts written the manager and told him of the good acts
and good pictures he might have been able to see abead. But
the knockers did the writing.
Let us who are pleased with good acts spend two cents and
let the theater owners know. +FaY.

BY IVAN H. BROWNING
London, England, June 6.
"Porgy" closed in England at Golders Green on June 8 and the company sailed on June 12 via S. S. Columbia for America.
T. Elder Hearn's English "Blackbirds" and his "Dark Town Scandals" have closed and a number of the artists have sailed for America.
Eddie Hunter, well-known comedian from Blackbird and Bristol, will appear at "Dark Town Scandals" will be featured in a new revue Hearn is producing shortly.
George Dewey Washington was a big success on opening at the Augusta Theatre, Williams and Taylor, popular comedians, will play the Stoll and G. T. c. tours for the remalder of the summer and have been offered a contract with Russell and Vikim, always busy, are in and out of London and this week playing the Hippodrome, Bristol.
To write 'em and sing 'em, are at the Regent, Hanley, this week. They virtually "tore up the bill" at the Finsbury Park in London last week. They were a plot from start to finish at the London Shoreditch last week. Possessing powers and showmanships they rendered in great style a budget of syncoposed songs under one aisle for brilliant work at the plano. It doesn't matter what Scott and Whale call their show, it is always Scott and Whale and people after all go to see and laugh at them. The Encore states that these boys are funnier than ever and defy the most blase to keep immobile under "Business to Business" in 11 scenes, each of which contains a reason for big laughs. Regardless of years, these boys are still very popular. Musical Spillers were a tremendous success in Edinburgh, last week and are doing the same at the popular Holburn Empire this week, where they are big fighter at this well known London ball.
Jimmy Fergerson was an instant hit at the Argyle. Birkhead, last year, was the first player to J. Charles dates shortly, which includes Dublin and Belfast, Ireland, and the Hippodrome, Sheffield, and will play the London labs afterwards. He is the trainer, made one of her flying trips to London last week from Paris. She returned to the gay city a few days ago. Tank Cumminger's Kentucky are doing fine at the Kilburn, Grange, one of the outlying district houses near London. Mrs. Belle Davis Whaley and her company have left for the continent where they will open their summer season. The Four Harmony Klings and their wardrobe will be displayed in the record business at the Playhouse, Colchester, this week and open at the Theater Royal, Worcester, next, with the Grand, Manchester to follow. J. Charles after a short provincial tour, return to the big Palladium, London, next week. The boys will headline over everything else on the bill, much to the likeliness of one or two American turns.
Popular Mrs. Nell Hunter of Durham, N. C. who is studying in London with the well known Mr. Drysdale, will leave early next month for Vienna, where she will complete a course with one of the old German
masters. Mrs. Hunter has enjoyed her stay in England very much and after all regrets leaving the stald old school. Dr. W. W. Whitfield of Cleveland, Ohio, who has been studying in Paris for the past year, is finishing up his studies and will sail for America soon, where he will begin a concert tour, beginning in New York and taking in the East, Middle West and the West. He should do well because of the fact that he has worked very hard since arriving on this side and I am sure his many friends will enjoy his many songs when he re-enters the States.
Mr. and Mrs. Bill George of Nice, France, after a fortnight visit in London with Mrs. Georges well-known son and daughter, and Mrs. Jack Carter has returned to Nice, Mrs. Jack Carter leaving her popular husband to spend the remainder of the summer in Nice with Mr. and Mrs. George. Mrs. George would like to return in London and enjoyed many of the interesting sights. Danny Small and family are enjoying their stay in Paris, having left for London, expecting to return to America shortly. Mr. and Mrs. Eddie Brown of "Porgy" will visit Paris for a few days before sailing for America next stay in London, especially Eddie, who has been a regular member at the usual Saturday evening round the board meetings. Walter Richardson are enjoying a fine holiday in and out of London and the popular Walter having just turned down a fine offer to appear in Australia in "Showboat," a popular holiday in and his bride will remain for a few weeks before sailing for New York.

Conduct of Visitors to Paris Awful
Rumors and their verification are constantly reaching this side of the water concerning the ridiculous consequences are now flooding into London and Paris. The new outlet for expression with unaccustomed recognition working various curious growth patterns in their intelligence and in most cases this is evidenced by the boisterousness and disorderly performances that if kept up will eventually operate to raise its art to that a great extent talent is aptly accompanied by ignorance, and the results so unfavorable to the lace as a whole follow. As a very intelligent and conservative artists who have returned tell of unspareable demonstrations and gross improprieties on the streets, the closed doors of the most exclusive hotels in Paris to be closed to all of their Race. It doesn't take long to build a bad reputation and already the first class accommodations, fused first class accommodations, the high regard in which the French and English people have held our American performers is fast diminishing the detritus of those of the better class who appreciate the opportunity.

"Harlem," Mode of Police, Pla to Half Empty
"Harlem," Modified by Order of Police, Plays Last Week to Half Empty Chicago House
BY EVANGELINE ROBERTS
Managers of the New Apollo
theater were ordered to close
"Harlem," a production showing
underworld life and scenes,
following a report made by the
board of moving picture censors
who visited the show last
Thursday night, accompanied
by a police squad from the
chief's office.
Friday, in a conference with a
representation of the theater
and the police officials, the promoters
were given permission to continue to
play only after the objectionable land-
mark was deleted and indecent
dancing stopped.
The owners announced Saturday
that this would be the last week. The
attendance long before the police
censors were present.
Commissioner of Police - William Russell declared that since the opening of "Harlem," his office had been flooded with letters of protest from the community, actions, words and scenes in the play. Most of the complaints came from our people, who declared that the whole performance was most discreditable, and had the effect of giving most adverse impressions to the other race.
Commissioner Russell said that attention had been called to the villa language, vulgar dancing and the use of the fireplace throughout the building. He expresses his dedication to rid Chicago of all other plays of a similar nature.
The closing of "Frankie and Joan" and "The Ride" resulted in playing at the Adelphia theater started the ball rolling toward censorship of public amusement. Russell declared that defiance of his order would result in revocation of the license of the theater and the arrest of the players.
Since the launching of this production, Russell has been New York by "Harlem" company No. 1 there has been a continual string of confusions following in its wake. The New York Times recently denied about a month ago after forcing the producer, Charles Zirkle, to allow them to become members of Equity, demanded Equity salaries, and denied the days' notice, fired the entire cast.
Company No. 2, which opened in Detroit about two months ago, met strenuous opposition from Welfare Commissioner Potter of that city, but managed to survive the committal court. It was allowed that they modify a number of scenes and cut out most of the vulgar dancing and language. By comparison with "Diamond Lil." another play in the full course in Chicago, but was closed summarily by Mr. Potter when it and the entire cast was given a brief notice to get out of Detroit. If the closing order remains effective it will result in a cast of 60 people being thrown out of employment. Among the well-known actors in the play are Andrew Bishop, Alston Bun, John Bun, the famous composer, Harry T. and Mable Ridley, noted singer and musician.

Ethel Barrymore to Play Role in 'Scarlet Sister Mary' Show
New York. June 14.—Ethel Barrimore's new play will be a dramatization by Daniel Reed of Julia Peterkins' Pulitzer prize novel, *Scarlett*. Her new play will appear in the title role of the Carolina plantation girl who encases a strange Odyssey from youth to age and from primitive joy in life to spiritual understanding. Her play will be chosen to complete her supporting company during the six months which intervene before the play comes to the Ethel Barrimore theater. Her provocative role to her repertory, Miss Barrimore becomes the first member of her distinguished family to undertake a "Negro characterization," and order of the modern theater to do so. Her lack of false standards in this respect were demonstrated in 1997, however, when she gave a thoroughgoing interpretation of the charwoman in Galsworthy's "The Silver Box."

AL BROWN IN VICTORY OVER SPANISH BOY
Defends Bantam Title in Gotham
New York, June 18.—One Round Al Brown, sturdy Panama boxer, pounded out a decision over Vidal Gregorio of Spain in a 15-round bout at the Queensboro stadium tonight to win recognition by the New York state athletic commission as "defending bantamweight champion of the world."
Brown, already recognized as 115-pound king by the National Boxing association, outclassed the courageous Joe Spanford and dropped him. Joe Spanford and dropped him. Gregorio never stopped coming in, but the six foot Panaman's long left hand kept him away over virtually the entire route. Both weighed in under the bantamweight limit. Brown weighing 115. Gregorio 1163.
Kid Chocolate, flashy Cuban, stopped Terry Rother, game little New Yorker, and put in round seminal, which was put on after the main bout. The Cuban "keed" towed with his wrist, and hurt him so badly that the referee stepped in to halt the carnage. Roth refused to abide by the decision, and corner. He fought with his handlers, broke away, and took several punches at the Cuban as Chocolate walked down the court. Again the referee announced the decision and Roth finally came to his seases and shook hands with Chocolate, stepped down on the ring. Chocolate weighed 1221 jouns, Roth, 121.

Four of the other contests ended in knockouts. Tom Olando, the "Harlest Butcher Boy," stopped Felix Milan in one round; Herman Singer in another; and Artie Thomas made quick work of Michael McCann by stopping him in the first round, and Charley Henderson won his bout with Sid Harris in the first round.

Nashville, Tenn., June 16.—The Memphis Red Sox, members of the Negro National league, won an 11-inning dual from the Nashville Elite Giants, members of the Southern league, today at Wilson park in the second game of their five-game series by a score of 2 to 1.
Willis and Glass both pitched massively. The Red Sox were unable to find Willis. Until the ninth inning they got only one hit. In that frame Dials tapped one for four bases. Letty Williams took the unmerited 11th. He was wild and allowed two walks and the winning run in the 11th.
Jessie Edwards and Charles Blackwell displayed a flashy brand of pitching. He was seized, robbed the Red Sox of hits that would have meant runs for the Red Sox.
Carter Glass, veteran Memphis pitching ace, but he kept cool at all times.
Nashville, Tenn., June 18- The Elite Giants defeated the Memphis Red Sox Monday at the Wilson park and the Giants look as if they are ready for any team. The feature plays of the same were a home run and triple by Jack Ridley, hard-hitting left fielder and the Red Sox proved they have a strong club, but the brilliant pitching of the Elite moundsmen is too much for Score. **R.H.E.**

Cleveland. June 16.—A large crowd saw the Will's Tigers down Columbus Peyteson Sunday at Hooper field in v. double-header. 8 to 3 and 6 to 3. In the first game Columbus took the lead and for three innings it looked as though the Tigers were up against some real pitching, for Kerner was on the mound for the Keystones and fanned the first two batsmen that faced him in the opened. The second pitch was the range and hit for a double, Goldle, triple; McCown, single; Bovd, grounder to second, and this ended the score until the sixth inning when the Tigers hit throughout the remainder of the game.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER

PLICQUE'S
AMATEUR
RING DOPE
By ED PLICQUE
CHICAGO'S BOXERS are treking
weekly to the various summer resorts
and displaying their ability
against the best talent available in
the vicinities.
Fox Lake, Antoine and Genoa are
the better known resorts where several
Chicago boys have set up great
fights against their favors and are
in great demand. Some of the
well known Chicago boys are Larry
Amedee, Barney Ross, Joey. Sheg,
Harold Brown, Lee Tutt, Clarence
Ballard, Paul Dazzo, Len Aryes,
Oceawelt Valines, Bill Jones and
Jackie Davile.
LARRY AMEDEE, clever lightweight, gave the Fox Lake fans something last Saturday night but weaved, blocked, feinted and displayed wonderful foot work against the K. O. artist, Clair Brownly, and other division easily to the delight of the fans.
WHEN ONE mentions "Bills" you would think they mention "Bills" I am speaking of two "Bills" who can and will fight. The "Bills" are Bill Jones from Barry Oak and Oak Park. They throw caution to the four winds and stood toe to toe and slugged each other or three round each other with coordination then most ten-round affairs. Jones received the decision, but O'Connell asked for a rematch, which was granted and will face the latter part of this month.
DAVE LICHTER, "one of the desperate three Lichter brothers" carries a mean wallop in his right mitt and when it lands his opponent uses it. He stands like a tree shimmer. Lichter put Alex Alex on the floor three times for the count of nine, but Roth wag game and wouldn't stay down and took a good three-round shellacking.
MARIN VITE, heavyweight boxer and baseball player, added another knockout to his list when he knocked out Jack Stayton. He second round out Jack Stayton in the beautiful Hippodrome arena in the windup.
JACK BARRY, a protege of Don Davis, is improving rapidly and with a little more experience he will be ready to meet the best in his division.
FRANK (STEVE) STEVENS and Frank Bererce, trainers and managers of the Summerdale A. C. boxes, have a stable of good boys, namely, Billy Bell, Billy Gladstone, Joe Lajoy, Cummings and Matt Dour, a middleweight with a long string of knockouts.
FRANK WILLIAMS, from Bill Jones A. C. lost a very close decision in four rounds to Jack Weist at the Wilshire outdoor arena last Monday. The promoter is trying to rematch these boys for full date.
ROOSEVELT HAINES, Golden Glove lightweight champion, will box once a week during the summer months and in the fall he will enter the Tribute tournament with four pounds, Jimmy Kellar 140 pounds; Major Pinklestone 140 pounds; and Earl McLemore, a sensational youngster whom the old-timer label as a pocket edition of the old master, Joe Gans, when he was in his hey-day.
TOMMY WILLIAMS, second place winner in the Golden Glove tournament, is still adding victories to his long list. On last Friday he traveled to Antioch and met the tough Jimmy Kellar whom he defeated in three fast rounds.
JACK WEIST increased the smile on his trainer's (Don Davis) face last Thursday at the Belle Plaine club when he landed a terrific right upercut to Jasmin Ullrich and put him to sleep for ten minutes.
AL. SELSO, a little Filipino, is one of the greatest crowd pleasers in our midst. He fears no one at his weight and has met such tough boys as Chins, Irritated Brown, Solly Dukelsky and Billy Gladstone.
HAYWOOD STOREY, "the fighting shadow," is very popular with the fans who attend the weekly show promoted by the Count as he on 63d St. Storey is a colorful boxer and always gives his best. In his last 20 fights he won 15 and lost two, but the two boys who received decisions over him were defeated in return bouts.
CARL STIENMETZ, instructor at the Chicago Sport club, has his boys—Bill Kruger, Bill Melcher and Al Reis—in the pink of condition, two Thursday fights he received three rounds and Reis defeated Harry Lupansky in four rounds.
WALLACE WASHINGTON, the slugging lightweight from the Pennsylvania railroad commissary, has discovered he carries a knockout belt. He has down Robert Neals in the first round with a left hook and then succeeded in knocking Neals out in the second with a perfect right to the chin.
WILLIE WOLCOTT, whom South side fans will always remember for his great fights at the old Jack Johnson gym at Wabash Ave, and 31st St., has been training all week and is now down to the required weight to make his forbital make for his bout with Al Lupansky next Tuesday at St. Rita's clubhouse.

Geo. Godfrey in Shape for Wiggins Bout
BY WILBUR M. COOPER
Cleveland, Ohio, June 17. — Motored out to Avon beach Sunday afternoon and watched Godfrey go through his training stunts for his 10-round battle with Chuck Wiggins at Taylor bowl next Tuesday night.
Big George, with his huge smile and 250 pounds of matured manhood, is working hard for this bout, for he wants to erase a four verdict against him the day the Hoosier clown three years ago in Philly.
This was the first time we looked over this menace to the vacated heavyweight crown seated in the court, sure chance he could trim all the Sharkeys, Riskos, Smellings and other palookas all at the same time if he could be assured of a fair break.
The sparting camp is running short of sparting partners for George, so Johnny Kibane, former feather titleholder and owner of this summer resort, is a busy man searching Cleveland for big men to mix with the
We were indeed amazed to see the ease and grace, with which Worcester had been able to never take him for a heavy. His timing and wind were perfect. He had been a superb player and keyed four sparing partners for the 500 fans who gave the giant the cree over. So we are certain Worcester is in for a tough evening.

Three singles and a walk followed and four runs were scored. In the second fielding lapse and three Douglass runs came over on misplays. Pitching on both sides was excellent. While holding the Prospect team to five hits, four in the first two innings, several misplays behind him spilled Morak's pitching efforts. He struck out five men. The Prospect runs came in the first two innings. After
Havanna Red Sox Defeat Ohio Clubs
