Wood was prominent in the political and civic life of his home town. He was a member of the city council and had served 11 years as moderator of the Kentucky general association of Baptists. He elected to succeed Rev. Edward P. Jones in 1925 as president of the National Baptists convention, which met in Fort Worth, Tex., and was sent to Norfolk in September of this year. Rev.

Dec. 20.—After a fight between 50 or 60 Howard university campus police officers arrested Leroy C. Clay, 28, and James R. Ramsey, 19, and charged them with disorderly conduct. The two students were held captive. The officers claimed that they arrested the boys when they refused to let the officers pass them in a motor car, and cursed them. The officers followed them to the Howard university campus, where one of the boys was arrested down. This started a free-for-all which was halted when the officers drew their guns. Four hundred thousand dollars is the prize for which one of the most hectic and bitterly fought legal battles in Cook county this year is being waged in the courtroom of Judge Robert E. Gentzel of the superior court. The light is being carried on by counsel for Mella M. King, 51-year-old housekeeper for the late Charles H. Puslifer, 91-year-old millionaire, and Mrs. Alice Crockett wife of E. Pearson St. his granddaughter. On Feb. 11, out at 4500 South Pkwy., where the Puslifer mansion stands, the faithful housekeeper, who, accustomed to the harsh realities of his life, had been a member of the Puslifer household since she was 16, watched the life of her employer clob away. Mrs. King declared that she had been a solicitor's constant commission from the solicitor she came to the law until his death. After his death it was discussed that Pulsifer had left a considerable sum of money and a number of valuable items. The housekeeper admits are $7,500 as half interest in a mortgage, a $5,000 clock, the Pulsifer residence at 4500 South Pkwy., and a seat on the board of trade valued at $24,000.

Shortly after the death of Pulsifer and the disposition of his wealth was convention meet in Chicago in 1933 and suggested that a booth be secured on the World Fair grounds in order that the world could see what the Baptists are doing. He also recommended that the Baptists take over Virginia, Theological seminary at Lynchburg, Va. At that time the Virginia school was on the verge of closing its door because of the lack of funds. Both of these measures were approved and the good that they will accomplish will forever stand as a memorial to the excellent judgment and far-sightedness of the Ministers and laymen of all denominations from far and near are expected here to take part in the funeral ceremonies for the dead divine.

Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY THIS PAPER CONSISTS OF TWO PARTS - PART ONE CON 55 AILS TO Gun Shots Warn Willie to Do No More Courting Burlington, N. C., Dec. 29—Willis Cooper owes his life to the fact that a former soldier of the World War was disabled and not able to shoot straight. The affair took place when Cooper entered an eating place in which Obie Edmonds, also a member of our group and an ex-service man, worked. There were no preliminaries. Edmonds brought out his gun and opened up, missed with his first shot and the gun snapped on an empty shell for the second as Cooper took to his heels. For some time Cooper has been petitioning to Edmonds' wife, who seems to relish the excitement and to not care to remain at home, as she is expected to. Edmonds had warned Cooper to stay away from him because he knew that he had not done as directed; so when Cooper walked into the eating house, Edmonds opened up. No one was hurt. Rev.

But the smoke got pretty thick after a while, and then I guess I passed out." Modest words these, and it was a modest young man who used them on Dec. 9 after he had been rescued by drenzen from the flaming shell of the room. He had collapsed while making sure that all the guests had left the rooms. While George Olby, 18-year-old bellboy of the hotel, did not admit he had the loot of the hotel Chatham last night knew it. They knew that he had搀ed his way through three stories of the smoke-filled building, that he had collapsed opening door, feeling in the rooms for bodies of those who might have been overcome by the thick fumes, and that finally, after covering two floors of the 15-room hotel he had collapsed in the last. Stairs on Fire "They gave me a gas mask," said George Olby last night while telling the Border Cities Star of his experiences. "They wanted to make sure that everybody was out of the building because the main staircase was all fire, and I went through the rooms. "I went to the top floor first and the smoke was so thick there it was before my eyes, it was so thick." And so the boy who knew the way, the boy who had carried thousands of grips to the hotel rooms, felt his way from room to room, to make sure His gas mask did not fit properly. Smoke seeped through it somehow until his eyes were blinded by the acrid air. Aided, By Taxi Driver Yet he continued at his task. Somewhere on the third floor he found a grip abandoned by a panic-striking guest who died the threat of flame. He seized it and took it to the ground. Then he went back. He went back to the second floor, and this time with the aid of Desmond Thomson, a taxi driver, continued his search. He gulped of fresh air and then returned to the hotel, which by this time was a blazing interio. He went up to the room of rooms again. He opened the door of room 30 red flames licked at him through the palm of the pick of smoke. He was exhausted. He had been breathing smoke and he continued. And living half in and half out of the doorway he was found a few minutes later by Fireman Thomas. He had battled his way through smoke and flame to reach a room on this floor, whose occupant was thought to have been gassed. A Captain Jack Graham of No. 1 platoon and together the two firemen carried the boy down into the street and to the fire ball, where he remained a few minutes later. To see how he could help about the fire. Waitress Gave Alarm Oley was at the desk when the fire broke out. "Kay" Budrow, one of the waitresses, came up, that the plaque was on fire, he said, when recollecting how the first alarm came in. "She said that the iron pipe on the fire stove moved, that the plaque was on fire," he said, when recollecting how the first alarm came in. "She said that the iron pipe on the fire stove moved, that the plaque was on fire," he said. "We looked and saw that it was so and called the fire department. And at the same time we tried to reach the rooms of guests registered in his telegram." "We got most of them, out the smoke was already beginning to get very heavy and some of them were moving around, helping to get them all out. That's all there was to it. It insisted (George Olley. "I just tried to help them out." And that is George's stand on his shoulders. There are his hooves about him. Neither are there any about Howard Olley, his father. That is, there are no violent heroes. "He's a pretty good boy, is George. Pretty good. That is all he was going to do. That is his voice held the ring of pride in it. The pride of a father whose son has done something worth-worth." REV. JOHNSON DEAD Albany, Ga. Dec. 20.-Rev.

THE CHRISTMAS PARTY PEACE ON EARTH GOOD WILL TOWARD IT SHOULDN'T MATRED GOD SPIRIT HENRY BROWN MY TRIP ABROAD BY ROBERT S. ABBOTT VII—SOJOURNING IN GERMANY WHEN we arrived in Bremen, the Bremen had just arrived after beating the world's record. Flags were flying and all were rejoicing. But it seemed to me, from the manner in which I was looked at in the streets, that it was I who was the center of attraction. Colored people are few in this region, and during my stay in Bremen I never saw a single one, except my cousin. I was gazed at in Germany more than in any other country, but let me say here that it was a different gaze from that with which I would be greeted in America or if I had gone into some remote village in the North. It was different from that, for instance, with which the Americans greeted us when we walked into the dining room of our hotel at Bremen. In short, the gaze of the German people was full of friendly curiosity. They were eager to conversa with me and whenever I addressed anyone I met with the finest courtesy. So I didn't mind a bit their gazing at me. I expect black people would do the same if a lone white man entered their village in Africa or somewhere else. The German Of this I am certain. Had I met the German people before the war my views regarding them then would have been different. They were certainly far finer to me than the white southerners, my own countrymen for whom we all fought. The German people were spoken of as being very brutal during the war, but I will have to be shown where they can equal the brutality, day in and day out; of the southern white man. The town of Bremen is more than 1,200 years old, and its foundation goes back to prehistoric times. The principal sights are the docks, though the big ships stop at Bremethaven, about 30 miles away: the statue of Roland, renowned knightly figure; the Vinegar House, a very quaint building put up in 1618; the Seven Sluggards in the courtyard of the Paul-Becker-Modersohn house; the St. Petrl cathedral, and the Rathaus (pronounced rat house) or town hall. An alderman or town councilor in ternary is called "a rat." Near the cathedral is what is known as the Bleikeller or lead collar. In this cellar are seven mummified corpses, among them that of a Swedenson priest in the center, the last being nearly 360 years old. All are petrified and it is said that the air of the cellar has some peculiar property for petrifying corpses and when struck in cold air and when struck make a resounding noise. In the Rathskeller There is also the world renowned Ruthskeier (cellar of the city hall) casks. This ruthskeier is beautifully decorated and contains many valuable pictures. There are several of her works. There are several and the Cellar of the Apothecary. The NATIONAL EDITION suburbs of Bromen are also very beautiful with many fine homes. sunlit hills in Bremen with many fine homes. There are many quiet, eating houses and fine cafes. Most of the German cafes have music at night, and the Germans struck me as being a very merry people. They know how to laugh and to enjoy themselves. From Bremen we went to Hamburg. Here among other places we visited the Hagenback zoo, which compares favorably with the Bronx park zoo. Among the animals perhaps the most interesting is a man who was an enormous walrus. He was just one great mass of fat and with a face that only a mother could love, but he could move over the ground and eat the fish in a most astonishing manner. We also saw a hucchipanzee who kept furring somersaults, playing with straw, and laying around as if playing a game. The head of elephants was one of the largest I have seen. In the park was also a village containing some fifty Negroes, all from East Africa. It was supposed to rep- Continued on Page 10, Col. 1 Mrs. Dean-Berry, Ex-Slave, Dead Mrs. Dean-Berry, Ex-Slave, Dead Cleveland, Dec. 14.—Mrs. Delsey Virginia Dean-Barry, born in Bath county, Virginia, between 1850 and 1854, envisioned by the pangs of slavery, died at the family home, 2622 Central Ave. Death was due to old age.

U.S. Frees 16 in Gary Rum Case By CHAUNCEY TOWNSEN Gary, Ind., Dec. 20. — Because of lack of sufficient evidence, the Whitlock conspiracy case, involving charges of conspiracy to violate the national prohibition laws against a aldermen, a detective police sergeant, two prominent lawyers, all members of our Race, and 11 white police officers, was not pressed by United States District Attorney Oliver Loomis in Hammond federal court Dec. 11. The nole prosequil was entered by the government on account of insufficient evidence to defend the defendants, all of whom were prominent in Gary's civil and political life. The two Race aldermen, Arthur B. Whitlock, counselman of the Fifth District Court, Fourth ward, were indicted last October by the federal grand jury on charges growing out of the disposition of a truck load of Candianian fabric, confiscated by Gary police officers. Fear for the fate of the two city legislators was expressed at first, because of a truckload of evidence was thought that the government had against them, but this was dispelled when the state dismissed the charges. Reason for the government's action in the case was based upon a fatal proof of variance from charges in the indictment. In addition to Whitlock and Blackwell, the following members of group were also absolved of all guilt. Detective Sergeant John Bolden, "race" of the Gary police department, who has earned the reputation of having more criminals than any other member of the police department. Attorney Louis S. Sperling, former state marshal, and prominent Gary lawyer. Attorney Roger W. Woodfolk, former Chicago and now a lawyer here. James P. Crawford, poolroom proprietor; Russell Wirt, man-about-town, and 11 white police officers, police officer department, and the conspiracy included Capt. James Vodien, head of the detective bureau; Matt Leach, head of the uniform division, and nine other police officers, defense for the accused was conducted by Attorney T. Witz Alexander and Judge William C. Hueston. Girl Brought Back to Life by Injection Little Rock, Ark. Dec. 20—Apparently dead after an operation, Judia Campbell, 15-year-old girl, was admitted to the hospital with an air resuscitation had ceased by an intruenous injection of oxygen. It is believed by physicians that this is the first time this method has been successfully used in the United States. Campbell began training her an operation was completed. Adrenaline was injected and artificial respiration started but the patient did not respond. Dr. S. S. Hoge, pathologist, used five minutes' use of these methods, resorted to the injection of oxygen into a vein in the girl's left arm. After five minutes, the official hospital recorder noted that in fairly dechinate respiratory expulsion. The injection was continued and in another five minutes the girl was breathing deeply and fairly regularly. Four hours later the patient was fit conscious. She is expected to recover. U. S.

Chicago to Have New $3,000,000 Provident Hospital PAGE TWO LAUNCH DRIVE FOR MEDICAL CENTER HERE Institution Will Be Finest in America The surgeon general of the United States public health service, Dr. Hugh S. Cummings, is to be the principal speaker of an informal dinner to be held Friday, Dec. 20, at the Palmer House, in connection with a project to provide a modern medical center in Chicago for which a fund of $3,000,000 or more will be needed. The money will be used for an immense program of training for doctors and nurses, for the purchase of the living-in hospital, for training and modeling of the hospital into the most modern in America and for an operating fund. The dinner Friday night it be called the "Bullfinch" chairman of the campaign; Dr. Frank Billings, President Robert Maynard Hutchins of the University of Chicago, Col. Albert A. Sprague, president of the hospital. Dr. L. Jackson, president of the hospital. The $3,000,000 fund has already been given by John D. Rockeeller, through the general education department. The Julius Rosenwald fund, have pledged $750,000. Mr. Rosenwald has for many years been one of the benefactors of the Race. Frank Billings is general chairman of the campaign, with Col. A. A. Sprague as chairman and Jacob Loeb as vice chairman of the executive committee. Alexander L. Jackson is chairman of the South side organi- The $3,000,000 fund will be required as follows: One million dollars from the University of Chicago, to build a training center for the instruction of students in medicine, to develop the success of the whole program depends on the successful culmination of the campaign. The university will teach and research from this fund. To Buy Lying-In Nine hundred thousand dollars for the new Provident hospital and training school. Of that sum $750,000 will be used to acquire the present plant of the Chicago hospital to the campus of the University of Chicago. Approximately $150,000 will be used for remodeling and for new equipment. One million one hundred thousand dollars will be incurred as an operating fund. A much larger sum is obviously justified by a hospital serving the entire population. The training of medical students, interns, nurses and other health professionals, improving the health situation. Important, therefore, as is the proposed new plant of the Provident hospital as a modern thoroughly equipped institution to cater to the needs of the population of this plant will be as a medium for the comprehensive teaching program indicated below. In addition to the obvious value of this program in improving the health of the community and nationally, and its corresponding influence on the incidence of disease, it will elevate the economic and living standards of the entire city and reduce destination appeals on the public interest. From its foundation Provident hospital and training school has been the joint product of public-minded citizens of Chicago, the concrete owner of the school, and the eleven elements of both races. The idea of the hospital was conceived by Dr. Daniel H. Williams. This idea was made an actuality through the generous contributions of its notable group of Chicagoans, Philip D. Armour, George R. Webster, Herman H. Kohsaat, George M. Pullman, Marshall Field, John W. Doane, Otto Young, J. Ogden Armour, Joseph Moore, Robert M. Mitchell, John McCarthan and Nathan L. Freer. No Color Line From the beginning the board of directors and the visiting and attending staffs of the hospital have been composed of both men and women, all of whom are of race or creed. A good many notable white surgeons and physicians have received part of their training at the hospital, and some of the policy of practical cooperation is still in effect. The board of trustees and the staffs of the hospital are still composed of white men and the open race. The board of trustees is as follows: Alexander L. Jackson, president; Albert B. George, secretary; Georgia G. McKenzie, Kenneth C. Kennete; Alfred C. Meyer, Joseph W. Moore, Rev. B. Redmond, Haven A. Requa, James Simpson Jr., Dr. Otho F. Ball, Joseph F.

HEROD OF HAITI A CHRISTMAS POEM By LEON R. HARRIS Herod of Haiti sits on a throne, His hands are bloody—his eyes are bold— His painted palace is lined with gold, And when he looks out on the tropic night, He can't see the stars for electric light— Great King Herod—so big and white! Little Jesus, bare and black, Born last night in a jungle shack, Has no place to lay his head: The milch-goat has eaten the leaves of his bed, While Marie, his mother, already out, For a needed meal is looking about. Jose, the father, has gone down Where the ships come in—to the big coast town. "Tis dark. Marie-goes outside where Little Jesus can get some air. While Herod basks in electric light Marie sees a strange star—shining bright. The sons and daughters of Herod feast: Tonight will shine the Star in the East: The wise men—come for the climate mild— Worship King Herod—forget the Child. Tonight the revel has never ceased— Wine and love and jazz—all wild. But Jose never got to the big coast town; Herod's soldiers shot him down, And the star Marie saw, strange and bright, Was Jose's soul on its upward flight. They buried him deep on a hot hillside And Marie weeped and wailed and died. Hearts are merry and hearts are torn: In Haiti too it is Christmas morn: The angels are singing their song again: "Peace on earth, good-will toward men!" And great King Herod, white and bold, Sits and fingers his jingling gold; And little black Jesus—where is He? Ah, Christ, make an Egypt where he may flee, And blight and wither the jeweled hand That grips and squeezes his native land, And say, as thou saidst in Galilee: "As ye do to these least, so ye do to me!" Detroit Pastor Denounces "Lily White" Christianity By RUSSELL J. COWAN Detroit, Mich., Dec. 15.—Another verbal bomb was exploded in one of the local white churches Sunday morning when Dr. Frank D. Adams (white), pastor of the Church of Our Father, Universalist, 4605 Cass Ave., denounced the practice of white churches in excluding members of our Race from membership. The sermon was the aftermath of the exclusion of two Negroes from Bethel Evangelical church last week and the exclusion of the part of the Rev. Adelbert J. Helm. Dr. Adams told the congregation that it was impossible to accept the principles and teachings of Christ Race, the organization of exclude Race, foreigners or others from membership in the church. The church, according to Dr. Adams, is facing a racial problem that the church has not been addressed. The pastor referred to Rev. Mr. Blakeshear, the Brooklyn minister who ordered Negroes from his church, saying that while some might not be the courageous and to the point. "Let me make myself clear," he said. "As I was quoted in the daily papers the other day, I am persuaded that Negroes are unwise in seeking predominantly of a white constituency. They have a perfect moral right to seek membership in such churches if they desire; and, as I have said, unless a church is to repudiate the very heart of the church, it is not in my best interest. But I deem it inexpedient at the present stage of social development. "If a Negro man or woman should come to me and apply for membership in the church, person like this: 'Never doubt but that you will find a welcome. We are committed unalterably to universal human brotherhood as a basic way, but out it the Christian gospel is a meaningless thing. It is our purpose to demonstrate the truth in every possible way. But in the most perfect, there are probably no saints among us. It would be unfair and cruel to let you believe that in the universal church, no one will still women under the influence of race prejudice. So, if you come into this fellowship, it must be with distinct purpose. You will be made unhappy by petty and annoying evidence of that prejudice. If with all these facts before him he will sainted to come in only one "Two or three years ago a young Negro applied for membership in one of our churches in Philadelphia. He came to the church and written a poetry of exquisite beauty. He could find no congenial fellowship among those of his own Race and color. He attended church for some months and then returned to the church and ashamed to tell you that his application was denied. "Several months later, not a result of this, I hope, but as a culmination of my experience, I am inevitable because of the sensitive nature of this young man, his spirit and his heart were broken, and he sought death by leaping from the high bridge between Camden and Philadelphia." "So, occasionally, one of similar type comes seeking what he believes to be a larger and thinner fellowship. So people from an neighborhood barber shop the other day. They have listened to its preaching of brotherhood and they take those sentiments seriously. Why should they not? They are all men from and among Christian life who are preaching to the preaching of Christian missionaries and have come in search of a Christian people and a Christian nation. And the issue in both cases is usually a hopeless pessimism or a broken heart. "The importance of the problem cannot be overestimated. It is full of implications touching every phase of our social life. Our social questions we used to assure ourselves here in the North that the race problem was solved for America when the Negro was emancipated and granted the right of citizenship. How did we have lured the Negro with the "We have lured the Negro with the in throne, his eyes are bold— bed with gold, on the tropic night, for electric light— big and white! black, single shack, head: en the leaves of his bed, already out, looking about. me down —to the big coast town. outside where me air. electric light star—shining bright. of Herod feast: Star in the East: for the climate mild— forget the Child. never ceased— —all wild. the big coast town; tim down, strange and bright, upward flight. on a hot hillside wailed and died. hearts are torn: mas morn: their song again: will toward men!" white and bold, bling gold; where is He?

Denounces e" Christianity high wages of our massed industries, though we have been careful not to make them too high—to the Negro. The Negroes have looked upon the North as an economic paradise, and upon northerners as traditional friends and brothers. Did not northerners set them free? So here we are, facing the challenge of a situation which we have created, with the high-sounding principles we have been holding so serenely called sternly to the bar of judgment. "There is something tropical in the fact that this situation has been precipitated at this time. The two Negroes who had the new-born king as Master and Lord wished to join his church at the Christmas time. But it would seem that there has been a mistake somewhere. Saved by Jesus, those who had the new-born king as Master; his gospel is only to mankows those whose skins are white. The church, built upon the blood and sacrifice of a martyred Jewish prophet has no other whose skins are of a dusty hue. "If that is so we shall have to be careful of our prayers this Christmas — Lord, we thank Thee for the Saviour and for the section of the world. Lord, we thank Thee for the promises of the gospel, as long as Negroes do not take them to the world and preach this evangelion for the commission to go into the world and preach this evangelion, only help us to make it quite plain that it can function only in separate communities, the song of peace on earth and goodwill to men, but let us see to it that it refers only to our kind of men. It comes out in such a blunt, unapologetic fashion! Every decent instinct of our heart cries out against it. Every exalted idea of it. It is not for this that a radiant procession of martyr-souls, from Golgotha to the present time, have laid down their souls in fear, in suffering and taken upon our lips the wows of a common and universal brotherhood. Cost what it may in patient endeavor, in faith and faith, in suffering and suffering, in the wows of the wows, we would be His disciples. We must meet and treat all men as brothers." Man Nails to Barber Man Nails Lie Told to Barber Shop Crowd Offitimes persons make positive statements about things of which they know nothing. The less they know, the more positive they are. We seldom know our virtues or vices as well as the man who does not even have an acquaintance with us. How often have we heard a person tell the intimate details of another person, and utterly ignorant of any of the doings connected with the discussed person. The following, sent to The Chicago People, wrote of the People, "speaks for itself: "While awaiting my turn at a neighborhood barber shop the other day, I saw a man with a slicked very dangerous and injurious to one of our most appreciative and progressive citizens. This remark I heard was false and untrue, but I realized that in an open barber shop was no place to believe the same, and there were those who may hear the same that the remark is untrue, verbatim. "The remark was directed against Robert S. Abbott, owner and publisher of Weekly, The Chicago Defender. "The remark was that Mr. Abbott never attempted anything progressive until after his marriage, expect that he was a lawyer.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER - - - RELIABLE FOR 24 YEARS Sleeping Car Porters to Hold Labor Confab Bank Garnishees the Wages of Julius Bledsoe, Singer Bessie Simons, Memphis Orphanage Head, Jailed A national labor conference will convene here for five days commencing Jan. 26 under the auspices of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, it was declared this week by Milton P. Webster, president of the Chicago division. An invitation has been extended to all labor unions, religious, civic, and professional organizations, Greek letter fraternities and sororities, women's clubs and all other groups interested in the advancement of any phase of Race life, to send their names to the Race workers are the backbone of the Race, and upon the welfare and advancement of labor depends the progress of all other phases of our industry. The problems of the group are civic or commercial. Hence, the problems of the worker are of vital importance to all elements of the group and merit their co-operation and assistance in the efforts toward Industrial discrimination, inadequate wages, long hours, unemployment and the burden of the manpower the many handicaps that obstruct the progress of the Race worker in America, are driving through a revolution due to the increased introduction of machinery and the gigantic combinations of industrial interest. From the fact that the legislative bargaining is the most recognized method of protecting his interest, in fact, the struggle for today is purely a question of the survival of the fittest. The most expert and scientific methods are being employed in labor in protecting their interests. What is the destiny of the Race worker in the light of existing con- Atty. Alva L. Bates, representing the Lincoln State bank, white, of Chicago-garnisheed the salary of Julius Bledsoe, nationally known singer, now starring with Ziegfeld's "Showboat" at the Illinois theater.

He borrowed $500 from the Lincoln State $500 from the Attorney Bates Lincoln State bank on recommendation of Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 20.—Bessie Simons, matron of the settlement home where eight children were burned to death in a fire started by Rosebud Ankton, 15-year-old girl, on Dec. 9, pleaded guilty to a charge of assault and battery. She was fined $400 and sentenced to serve 60 days at the county penal facility. Charges against Simons grew out of almost unbelievable tales of cruelty told by more than 50 of the 80 children of the home. It was to stop the brutality—bettime and worse—of the Ankton girl she see to the home. At the same time she too pleaded guilty and was sentenced to serve 60 years at the county penal facility. She will remain in the Tennessee Vocational School for Race Girls until she is 21 years old, when she will be transferred to the penttiary. At girl pleaded guilty to two charges of second degree murder. Charges of assault and battery growing out of the brutality to children and as such, I have kept in touch with persons of the type of Mr. Abbott. In September, 1915, Mr. Abbott started on the out path of buying Chicago real estate and on or about Nov. 5, 1915. I accepted his offer on a building at the northeast corner of the Chicago real estate plant. I was not successful in getting his offer accepted, is the one reason that The Chicago Defender is not located in that spot today. This is why I am so beautiful, a brick home located at 4817 Champlin Ave, that was purchased from one Jeremiah Bush for cash and the deal closed on or about March, 1916. This reason that it was purchased for all cash for a clear building because buying real estate for cash was a method almost unknown at that time and not a common one for any black people. It was the first sale that was ever made that way. Mr. Abbott, is in my mind, a constructive and progressive business man, fortunate when we sit idle and allow gibby gossipers like this to make statements against our most valuable citizens without making some effort to mouthwork and expose his foliage. Mr. Abbott has done too much for the uplift of depressed black people for anyone to show such little appreciation. He have moved and a job he has worked harder and more continuous to break down the racial barriers and to wipe out anti-Negro sentiment. "Thanking you to please publish this," (Signed) ANDREW J.

These vital questions must be deeply considered if the Race worker is to be effectively trained as a worker in America. No particular interest in the Race can afford to remain apathetic. Discuss Main Subjects With a view of undertaking the facts in the premises, a free and frank discussion of the vital economic and social problems be made available to it the desire of the brotherhood to solidify the various interests of the Race behind an intelligent, practical and constructive program for the development of the society. The agenda covers a wide range of subjects, including adult crime and its contributing causes, the family, the education system, the pendency, the duty of the Christian church and the present industrial system, adult education in general and its application to the student and worker, co-operative movements among members of the Race, the press and its influence on the destiny of the Race, and the need and organized labor. The best authorities in America will gather in Chicago at the conference to talk on important information and discuss topics will present. The conference is being sponsored by a large group of representative citizens, headed by Attorney Charles Wesley Burton and counselor William McCarthy will be released at a later date. Milton P. Webster, chairman of the general executive board of the sleeping car porters organization, is director of conference affairs, and the director will gladly given by addressing the director at 4531 Michigan Ave., Chicago, Ill. Editor Robert S. Abbott of The Chicago Defender. In 1926 the Mehryar alumult had Bledsoe here as a guest artist, and at that time the money came from the bank, but it was not a sufficient amount to pay the loan. The singer is said at that time to have received the note on which he obtained the money from the bank and showed his gratitude for Mr. Abbott's recommendation by refusing to pay. Since then, Bledsoe called him the author, paying the balance of the loan, that he had declaimed a bankrupt by the courts. Atty. Bates' only recourse was the garnishement of the debt. Atty. Bates long money due it. Atty. Bates is a graduate of Howard law school, class of 1914, and has built up an enviable reputation as a member of the bar in this city.

Man on Trial Twice for Murder to Die New Orleans, La., Dec. 20.—Julius "Doo Doom" Roberts, illiterate youth, was found guilty last Friday of the murder of 15-year-old Henry Flink, the son of Mrs. Annie Flink, whom Roberts also stood trial for killing. He was found guilty in the first case, but the verdict was rendered without the death penalty. The verdict in his case, however, carries the death penalty, and sentence will be pronounced next Friday. The admissibility of a purported confession by Roberts, who is so ignorant that he will be apprehended by the verdict which may send him to death on the gullows, turned out to be the most discussed point in the trial. Edward L. Mahoney and Henry A. Rhodes, both of whom defended Roberts, made conscious of their client. Robert's律师 was tested a number of times and on each occasion he was declared normal, though decid- Mrs. Fink was reported to have been stabbed by a person at the time she was murdered.

Jail Louisiana Planter for Peonage, Flogging [Chikulam News Service] New Orleans, La., Dec. 20. A typical case of Louisiana peonage of ignorant Race men and women was revealed last week before the federal grand jury when Gabe Allen, Jessie Hill and Herbert Dyson, fearful for their lives and hunted like animals for escaping from a plantation near Bogalusa in Washington parish, sought protection. James Piggott, white son of one of Louisiana families and owner of a $2,500-acre plantation, was arrested by representatives from the department of justice and upon his appearance before Commissioner F. K. McKenzie on a bond of $3,000. Despite the stories of the men who claimed they had been held as slaves, Piggott pictured a kind-hearted plantation owner too good for their own benefit." Piggott is a "cracker hero" in the Pearl river section of this state foliage, his huge feet. He was no longer of single-handed and heavily armed going into a swamp and killing an unarmed hunted man who had shot a white policeman. A mob was hunted and the man who fled to the swamps. Piggott, familiar with the section, is said to have beaten the mobbists for cowardice and shot the hounded man as he pleaded for mercy. Allen, Dyson and Hill told the federal authorities how men and women United States Policy Both Praised and G United States Policy in Haiti Both Praised and Criticized Washington. D.

Miss Dorsay was initiated two years ago into Pi Lamda Theta, professional pedagogical society, and now her sisters declare they would threaten the society to force the girl out. The controversy between the local and the national started when southern members found out that a teacher of the university declared that the rest of the fraternity might withdraw from membership, but that the rest of the fraternity would in race or color, nor would they ever vote the expulsion of Miss Dorsey.

The plantation owner laughingly admitted that once when one of his "bad niggers" caused trouble, he chained him to a tree as he worked. When looked at him to Mississippi to regain his escaped plantation hands, he explained that the men were in debt to him and that he had had warranted him for backhanded backhanded to work out their debts. Piggott cottage had no trouble keeping his hands until, as in the Aransas Johnson organization for their protection. When asked the name of the alleged organization, he said it was the United Brotherhood of North Texas, an organization for their protection, of any such organization. The Piggott plantation is near Rogers, LA, where, a few years ago, the Great Southern Lumumba and a number of labor organizers were killed on the complaint that they were encouraging "social equality" in attempting to get Race Unions and to ask for higher wages. Government secret service men found, on investigating the practices in vogue on the Pigsoft plantation, that the hands were fed the poorest of food and sweets, and worked the fields in the most inclement weather.

Johnson Here "New Developments for American Negroes" was the subject for which a large crowd packed the Adelphi theater Sunday afternoon to hear Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard university, discuss. Dr. Johnson, one of the most forceful speakers heard in Chicago, told the audience at Washington, D.C., to talk under the auspices of the Chicago Forum council, presided over by Fred Atkins Moore. He was the author of The Atkins Moore, a publisher of The Chicago Defender. In his talk Mr. Johnson traced the developments which have contributed to the status of the race, and the past 65 years. He told of how 4,000,000 former shaves were situated at emancipation and how, almost without real assistance, counting only 100 heads have reached the stage they now occupy in America. Discussing the race question from an economic standpoint, Mr. Johnson's short idea and concluded that, unless white employers see the advisability of accepting their workers at their value as individuals and not as members of another race, this country will eventually lose the economic cast system in which the dividing line will be color. He referred to the face as a thermometer standing on the front steps of America, by which the other dark races of the world share their ideas about the white man. Other Races Watching "If this country cannot work out its own path, China's marx's chance in this country, we need not expect Japan, China, India and South Korea to be the ones that want what we put out rather." He said. Speaking of the menace of the chain stores. Dr. Johnson referred to the case of a merchant of West Virginia who died broken in the store. Dr. Johnson had had a long career as a successful wholesale groceryman. The great mass of wealth and organizing ability that goes into the chain-store business has been the man but the small white operator, he declared. Dr. Johnson remarked that he has hope for the black farmer in the South since he was a child. It is known that it will recognize the farmers of the Race who organize themselves into co-operative bodies just as the whites have done. This will insure the farmers of the Blacks are more available by the government's aid. Teaching upon the subject from a political standpoint. Dr. Johnson declared that the election of Oscar DeFriest to congress was important and that he was happened to the Face in politics in the last 50 years. "It would be of great benefit to the Negro if DeFriest never spoke a word," he said. "His mere presence in the house of representation from forgetting entirely their obligations to his dark constituents." As a resume of this phase of his talk, Dr. Johnson advocated a divided vote from the Face as a solution to the problem and attention to the plight of the southern white man who is a Democrat, not by choice but because his father was a Democrat. "What can you expect of a man whose vote was delayed before he was born?" he asked. Sees Hope for Race A. E. Dotson Heads D. C. Masons Again Washington, D. C., Dec. 26—Al E.

The report circulated by the Associated Press that a marine had rescued a Haitian from the bottom of a shark-infested bay at Cane Haitien is that the marine representing the United States could save a black man from death of any kind. The reputation of the marines is that their function is to kill black men—not "thieves"—and results in a native of Haiti and a black man, violated the tradition of the best white society, including the churches and social orders. Besides being dismissed from his cherished regiment, he was also forced to the rules and regulation of his outfit, he stands a fine chance of being ostracized by white society generally. What he did just isn't being done these days by marines or by our own officers, but by the higher superior types such as army officers, marines, ministers and diplomats. Detroit Police Nab John Russell on Bum Check Deals --- Detroit, Dec. 16. — The long, long trail of worthless checks which he scattered about like confetti and which, according to his own admission, netted him between $29,000 and $40,000 in the year has been operating, ended Sunday for John Russell, 55, of 572 E.

BY MAURICE ROCHAMBEAU CHAPTER VI In the song of life there are notes which attain an almost mattainable pitch — which each a crescendo bordering in the supernatural. Celebrate the sweetest after her engagement at the Plantation club on roadway, where even in a pro- duction car can be seen. The Nile, Joseph Baker has to attain the zenith of her atlasocopic career—Paris, France. The city is the city. The ciradise neither class nor nor race nor creed stand in the ath of genius. To the story—to an orderly sequence of apparently in significant events which laid the foundation for little bronze motion in the film. Josephine's dancing at the Plainnion club became the talk of all of the members, and she numbered hundreds of the most one-blooded Nordics of fashionable Park Ave and Broadways most famous producers were now dickering for her services. But Josephine's heart was on Paris. It is hard to explain how she escaped these allurements. Josephine was a girl who managed to refuse salaries running into five figures when at the time she was earning only $25 a week. But the little sienna who had cultivated all of Broadway stood adamant. She rejected offers with the prominence of an opera prima donna. "Well, I have always believed that I would love to meet me." Josephine said later. know that if I wanted something badly enough . . . and if I worked for it very hard, she would not fall." And the fair godmother didn't! One glorious day when the house was in New York, Josephine received an unexpected caller. A woman, who inquired about Mme. Reagan asking her whether she would join a show which was going abroad. Mme. Reagan said she had been invited to Plantation and thought she was to be a sensation in Paris. Josephine, Reagan's words, words, words. Paris!; Palrs!; Paris!; the words raced through her brain, singing and humming to her mother had sung to her in childhood. Paris!; Were really tired. Paris!; When Josephine regained her composure, she heard the voice of Mme. Reagan droning on with business for a week. All expenses paid for Luxury. Luxury. Luxury. comfort. the first flush of excitement, Josephine accepted. She behaved like the little child that at heart she had opened its portals before her she felt unpaid and exhaled. she felt unified and exhaled . . . Paris! Paris! Paris! It was true! But when the grown-up Josephine came to her sense, the business acu- "Miss Broadway" Co. Draws Record Crowd Dallas, Tex.

When Mme. Reagan came, Josephine, now what calmer, suggested that $150 was after all, no money at all compared to what she had had. She was not Dmitre, Reagan think that she deserved more? Mme. Reagan is naturally a keen observer, for a moment she hesitated. But when her answer came, the original $150 was increased to $300 per week. Josephine replied, her voice shrewdly modulated to a point where Mme. Reagan beamed and then Paris—entirely. It was a vital moment — Josephine's career was in the balance. Mme. Reagan she overplayed her hand . . . It was too late to accept. Josephine didn't take too time to hear the heard voice of Mme. Reagan. Her voice hammering away with the precision of an experienced harrainer. The words seemed to come out slowly—too slowly for Jose- "There is no use bickering," she heard Mina, Megan say. She shook hands that were to follow. All her hopes were dashed in that one solitary moment. It was only a moment with her, filled with what seems to choose the threat and cut the heart with its sharpness. Again she has its heart, but no use bickering, Josephine" she repeated. "I will give you $250. That is the best I can care." There was a finality about the way she said it that led Josephine to accept it without further discussion and had begun. On Sept. 12, 1925, Josephine trusted the first fruits of luxury. Amid the friendliness her and those who had learned to love her art, the amber goddess boarded the S. S. Berengata, the captain of the Cunard line. Paris built. This was the first time Josephine had ever left her maid to draw out of the harbor, she witnessed a sight which she shall never forget—a sight with many mingled tears of joy and anger. Sotty weeping into her handkerchief, she stood at the rail, watching the horizon. New York had been kind to her—had seen her rise from a New York, a city of a thousand wondrous memories, that Josephine was leaping. The skyscrapers which line the shore of Manhattan Island were a dim blur as the Beringerina swept America — the Stature of Liberty. Though she had never fully apprehended tears rushing to her eyes. Silently, so that other passengers might not overhear her, she muttered a farewell, 'beautiful in its implicity, deep with sincerity; "Good-by, New York — good-by, America!" In the next chapter, you will read how Josephine leaped from despair into the high road of new adventure. Her triumphant entry into Paris and the glorious receptions which he received by her nobility. Don't fall to读 her. On the Stroll By Ace CHRISTMAS is right here on us, folks, and I bet you are bemoaning the fact that you aren't quite ready to celebrate the holiday, the same thing. But, then, is anybody ever ready for anything? A FRIEND OF MINE asked me why people go on the stage. And I replied to question: "Why does you become a doctor, a lawyer, or a greet sweetener?" --- BUT WHEN you come to think of it, going on the stage is not nearly as simple as entering most professions, or what not must have a lot to think about what some one has termed "international fortitude" than most anybody else. GETTING to the top on the stage is not easy, I think I can think of. And after one makes the grade a tough break is liable to come along and knock one right back where he started. WHEN THE FOLKS out front see, for instance, a team of hofers, say, tap dancers, they watch them as they go through their routine, and at the finish of the turn give them some a little, maybe a lot. ```markdown ``` IVE OFTEN WONDERED if theater patrons ever stop to think of the things even hoofers must undergo before they are good enough to show. THE SAME AMOUNT of effort to learn would send a student half way through college. BUT THEN the reward for "being good" is about the sweetest thing in the world. There is nothing that is better than being good. phasus which means that hundreds of people out front like your efforts so much that they are going to have you back or know you then why. IF PERFORMERS are not记otiously "cared" nobody can blame them a life. They have to be or the "life" would send them post-haste back to some mundane task that doesn't require so much courage. GIVE THEM A HAND, FOLKS! AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Written by Dorothy Fields, daughter of the veteran actor and producer, she appeared doomed to failure until Lew Leslie saw in it the possibilities which have made it the most sensational song. Contrary to the custom usually followed by Miss Fields, she thought of the title of the song before a bar of fire. McHugh was so impressed by the title he wrote the first draft of the melody the same afternoon and finished the song. Mar's Revels' was about to open at the time and in search of a hit number for the show accepted this song, but unable, the number failed to register and was withdrawn from the show before the Broadway premiere. The song was then turned to number and turned to other material. Several months later Lew Leslie recorded a concert and lyrics of "Blackbirds." The score was completely turned out when Leslie asked them to write what he termed "a crooning that could be heard on the piano." "We have one," said Miss Fields, "that we wrote quite a while ago. Would you care to hear it?" Leslie responded and Jimmy McHugh ran through the song on the piano. Leslie listened in silence and when McHugh played the lyrics, he sang the songs on the producer hit up estatically. "That's marvelous!" he shouted. "That's what this song is deceptive. It already was in one show and was thrown out." "Listen, brother," came from the enthusiastic crowd of fans who sat in position to this song in the past. I'm going to make it the biggest song hit in the country. It not only is sweeping this country, but is equally as popular in Europe. It has broken every known record for popular song and phonograph sales may song sit in position to this 18 month after it was first introduced in "Blackbirds," is going stronger than ever.

Were that lady desirous of pointing to a glowing example of "It," she would have found a more definite illustration than the dynamic personality of Harriet Calloway. Call her Leslie the "Blackbirds" at the Addehli. Here is a youngster of 19 years who, because of her natural gift to successfully "sell it," has confounded all those preachments and traditions of years of hard work in a natural gift to application before attaining success.

At this juncture the drummer, who had been enjoying the play from the orchestra pit, let out a loud howl as he clapped his hands over his eye. "I've been shot," he relied. However, at the hospital, Hackett was found not to have been injured seriously, and was discharged after treatment for minor burns. Paris Likes Race Paris, France.

If per- Note: The following article taken from Variety, leading the theatrical magazine, which always seems to give the Bacca, which always seems to give the well grounded and for that reason the editor passes it on to the readers: FEW MAYJEOPARDIZESTANDING OF ALL-NEGRO TURNS ON CIRCUIT Three or more of the Colored acts on the Keith chain are reported after managers and booking office. The account states that before the press release, the manager was summoned charged in Keith's these Colored acts, credited as stage hits, seemed to do the same after the release. In connection with their business transactions with the hooking offices, the substance appears to be that the managers annoyance have developed swollen heads regarding their importance to either Keith's or any stage, over the their salary or the size of their hits. One of the acts in question last week reported that the office, requesting a release from its contract, with an answer promptly returned. If the act paid the hooking office, it had secured as an advance it do it you were a young lady 22 years of age and compelled to give your weekly salary intact to your aunt? That is the fix I'm in and too big a coward to extract myself from such a predicament. Every week my salary of $16 is handed over to my aunt and every day I am given a small sum for car fare and no more. I cannot buy a handkerchief without her approval. I do not care for gaudy finery because I do not go to parties nor do I dance. Nevertheless, I do want stylish clothing. If I remonstrate with her she sets up a hue and cry and calls me ungrateful. Now I am fed up on such doings. I want money to spend, nice clothes to wear and the自我robules for my imaginary shortcomings. If I do what I am contemplating on the dear aunt will have just cause to weep. I tired of looking dowdy and being always broke. It's no fun, I can tell you. I'm not going to leave home, and I mean to have some diversion from the usual routine of work and home and a bed. Can you suggest anything to help me on my road to emancipation? Wistful.

I advise you to suggest to your aunt a plan like this: That she does for you and keep the rest of your money. If she refuses, then I advise you to move away from her. I advise you to feel from the fact that she can continue to keep you within the palm of her hand. If you talk plainly to her, she will accept whatever you offer. DEAR Princess: I am a constant reader of your wonderful advice, and am coming to you as I know you can help me. I also hope this will be a warning to other girls. When I was in the house, I could not follow me until the finally (through the lady next door) got a chance to take me out. I was going to college, but had to leave an account of financial difficulties. He told me he was single-footed, but found the first thing he did, but living apart from his wife. When I found this out, I wrote him a letter telling him that I wanted to call it all off. He replied and said he had not lived with his wife for more than two years. He told me he had not to tell me was because he was afraid I would not give him a chance. He was right. I was 17 then. He decided to go back to his wife, telling me he had a purpose for it, and when he was accomplished, he desired he would make it happy. I have waited three years during which time he has divorced his wife. I have been in the state of motherhood three times for him, and each time it caused me to have time to do something else. I have made my mind to leave him forever or kill him. I feel more like killing him than anything else, still I love him. Now, Princess, I do not know if I would be justified in being his son. If I should go on suffering, broken heart. Please advise me.—Wrecked Lies and deception bring about the Prince All, Hindu soothsayer, is placed in the staircase and appears from the stage.

Won't Be Bothered This wire peeved Keith's to the extent it was determined if more bother came through Colored acts, in their dealings with booking office or house managers, Keith's would stop playing Colored turns altogether. While the booking office appreciates the value of some Colored acts to its vaudeville blits, the newly organized booking and managerial staff has taken the attitude that no actors of any color will hereafter run the Keith stages or offices. Quite a large number of Colored turns might be affected were Keith's to carry out its determination, if the Race artists continue to attempt to take advantage while in the theater or booking office. Some years ago all Colored acts remained off of the big time, Keith's and Orpheum, for a long period. While off they were high-arbitrary stricted to the small time. They gradually worked back through merit, receiving much more salary from Keith's than they could secure in any This story seems to have been given to Variety in something of the nature of a suggestion, if the Colored uuoms who may have annoyed Keith's wish to observe it. On the Keith time the Colored group are accorded the same treatment given to other uuoms, formed by Keith people say, they must reciprocate if continuing to play the circuit.

THE THEATRICAL EDITOR. BY WALTER BARNES, JR. Fellow musicians, have you ever got to the place where you almost lost your self-confidence? If not, light, you never will. You self-confidence, like concentration, and a very precious quality. No success can be achieved, confidence, and every man that ever did anything great had to do it by himself. JOHN B. HARRIS When a man chooses a priest to believe in his faith, his possesses so much tenacity and courage and with what music. Young musicians who are just beginning have to possess an ability to build confidence as there are some on all sides of you with the "hammer" ready to encourage you, and your own confidence have to support and sustain you. Music is a big thing and big things would have to get other people involved, but would have to do. Do not discourage and lose your self-confidence because you cannot accurately. Music is valuable and difficult to master, but what is not difficult to learn is the ability to be by everyone, and anything that requires little ability to maintain the competition is many more in the stricting for things higher up. William Hall, banjoist, formerly of Walter Barnes' Royal Crescent, dithliam, who has been sick about five months, gave his fellow musicians a gift to his return shortly. Walter Barnes, who is the writer of this column, wishes to express his grief and says he is grateful to the Hall. He was always reliable and a real pal. His body will be taken to the end and a wonderful wife who stuck by him to the end and a million of friends to mourn his death. And his Creole orchestra played a very successful engagement at the Savoy hall room. He is also the dance browers of the Savoy and will play a return engagement Sunday. Best luck to Bernie Billy Page, the handsome clarinet and sax player, is now the director of Calamene's orchestra at the Savoy. Billy is also the arranger of this orchestra and knows his business. George Smith, re-elected president of Local 208, wishes to express his sincere thanks to his many friends. George puts his heart and soul in the local and will try to put it on the top. Good luck to George in the environment.

This Young Man Surely Doesn't Hate Himself The following publicity came from a young man in the reader's edification. Maybe Horace Greeley was right when he said: "No West, young man, go on! Because it makes people feel like this: 'On your heels, down the street, on other the Hermann, the proverbial Brigham Young of Salt Lake City's younger set. Say, if you could you be a woman's man, you way way you be a woman's man, you way." He's not the sad and lonely one, but the only one who can please the Lake pleasure seeking night hawks. The most exclusive clubs in the city, including Alah, and the American Legion, as well as the Granada ballroom, call on hawks for the spades, with hapes, and in case you don't know, Hermann ranks with the best baseball players in the Spanish winters aptitude in handling the dogs on the warm floors of the city's winter night clubs.

Sylvester Dav Black Win De Land, Fla., Dec. 12.—Sylvester Davis entered the Chrysler garage boxing arena last night to meet "Kid" Spikes of Sanford who was substituting for Billy Long in an advertising fight that demonstrated for once and all time that the public does not appreciate substitutes, especially the kind like Spikes, who was more of a clown than a boxer. It was necessary to stop the fight in the sixth round, but better still, the fight might have been stopped in the first round. As far as Spikes was concerned Davs were merely boxing a dummy figure. Spikes did manage to take off at the "imagery booth." Davs had to offer to an opponent who was merely substituting for Billy Long. The main bout of the evening was a false alarm, worse and simpler simply, if the truth must be known. Possibly a better way to treat the public in these advertised rights is for the promoter to retard North Carolina Defeats Live Greensboro, N. C., Dec. 13.—A human cannon ball, named Bus Coleman, was the big factor in the 12 to 6 defeat handed the Livingstone Bears by the Aggies of A. and T. college in the World War Memorial stadium.

His kick, like the one he counted for A. and T. in the second period with an 84-yard gallop through tackle, knocked Coleman out of the goal line. On the first play Coleman got loose and after slinking off three toes, he kept out of the way of his own interference.

Fast Black was good enough to win the decision boxing bout, but the United City boxing club a return bout, and so challenged Black from the ring-side, which seemed to be a good match.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER - - - RELIABLE FOR 24 YEARS WILEY CLAIMS TEXAS GRID CHAMPIONSHIP By BEET LEWIS Marrshall, Tex., Dec. 11.—By virtue of a 10 to 5 victory over Bishop in one of the most spectacular gridiron battles of the year, the Wiley Wildcats again became champions of the Texas conference for the third consecutive year and the conference trophy will hang in Brainard Memorial chapel for all time, as the Cats are the first to win the championship three times in a row. In this conference seems to be a hand for Fred Loeh, and his prolegues. Since Loeh has appeared here, the Wildcats have won four of seven championships and two championships close to the other. No champion was ever richer than him. He was the first champion elected, after later men were missing, which meant long hops to compete in his first championship in his third games. The blessing of the year for long was the coming of *Coolay* and the development into the best center ever seen in these parts. At times it developed into the whole Wiley team on defense. Another big help to the Cats was the hiring of *Bob* to kicking form. Three years ago at Fort Worth high fresh was her best place kicker in the South. However, during his first two years in the team she shot in the fine line, but this year two long field goals have been the deciding points in two important conference games. Her performance against Bishop was the greatest ever ever achieved, and followers of the Willetts are proclaiming "the ten" the most valuable back Texas has yet produced. Gombs, Franklin and Cavell were never, as there was "Hunt" Johnson, Lucas Davis and "street" Evans in business, while Dan Calhoun, "Big Big" Garret, Parks, Captain Young, all came in for their share of glory. Wolverines PileUp 42-13 Cage Opener Grand Rapids, Mich. Dec. 14—The Wolverine Big Five opened the basis for a night when they swamped the fans DeVries Drug company's team. 42-14, Naele Ioblinson gave the fans as nesting as has been seen here in many days. The team sank one more basket than the entire drug team was able to score points, frequently dribbling through the entire team to sink a basket. DeVries was not to be sneezed at, as they held the "pill and powder" boys to three baskets in the first half and came number in the second chapter. Captain Thomas and Rice of the drugs played brilliantly throughout the contest, if such could be called a home. The Big Five should like to hear from sons!

He has asked that his opponent should not be chosen before Jan. 15.

All-Star C. I. A. A. Eleven --- Hampton Institute, Va., Dec. 16.—The football season is considered as officially closed on Thanksgiving day, but the season is not truly closed until the all-star selections of various conferences and the all-American pickers have done their stuff. The selection of an all-star team is a task of no small degree. It is a job that requires the best that one possesses, and the final decision usually comes in for quite a bit of questioning. The play in the C. I. A. A. during the 1929 drive was not up to its usual standard. The best of the playing was centered in a few teams, as the season's standing will show. Some of the teams rated at the beginning to have strong chances to end near or at the top of the pile, faltered before the season had reached its half-way mark. Hampton, Virginia State, Union, Lincoln and A. and T. in that order, were considered as the leading teams of the conference, but the end of the season saw the order practically reversed. injuries played a great part in the reduction of the efficiency of many a team. In considering picking any player for a position all of his qualifications must be taken into consideration, how much he must be considered are his team value, how good is the assignment he faces, how often is his team forced to have him in the position, what week and strong points on offense and defense, how does he stand up in the face of stiff opposition, and much more thought, overall weighting and a process on elimination that a decision is reached. Some might think that the team has in getting the majority of the berths, but this is not necessarily true. A low division team has an eleven or three matches above. While there may be some things the family has not observed, the all-star committee has observed these things eccely and has been guided by them to a great extent. Chief among these are how some of the last year's stars gave preference to their injuries and loaded along during the thick of the tray, and showed a complete lot down in their style of play: how some men failed to show the mental alertness formerly displayed by them: how some of them failed to fit into the scheme of things at given points. Some of the men to suffer these things were Payne, Pegram, Dahney and Chambers of Virginia State; Jones, Guess, Mortan and Harris of Hampton; Coleman of A. and T.; Temple of Lincoln, and Washington and Booth of Union. The Ends The crop of ends was somewhat large, but the majority carrying these weapons, and the majority playing the arms of them were, more or less, inclined to be content with playing a defensive game. This is imminent, and the defense with an offensive brand of play-arm of more value than those strong in one department only. An arm of the defense is the reception of forward passes and his power to prevent his fank from being able to oppose the line, the ability to break up interferers when an attempt is made to skirt the Among the ends offered are Powell of Virginia State, Sydner of Lincoln, Jewell of A. and T. Lowe, of Lincoln, Jewell and Lowe were eliminated, which left Powell McGowan and Sydner, and Jewell to Sydney of Lincoln and Sydney to Sydney of Lincoln and McGowan of Hampton. Other good ends were Wells of St. Paul, Booth of Union, and these men had bad days, especially Temple, who was not in the physical condition to stand the continuous The Tackles The tackles offered were Kane of Lincoln, Gaines and Hunter of Hampstead, and the play was close among the tackles, what few there were to choose from. Where were they plus in some things of them combined all the round-consistent team play demanded in this game, of them combined the all-round-consistent team play demanded in this game, of them combined only four from which to choose two, making the task here Kane and Hunter were eliminated, leaving Lee of Virginia State and Gaines of Hampton as the choice for The Guards The crop of guards was also small, small as has been for the president of the State of Paul, Veeney of Lincoln, Thompson of Union, Oliver of Virginia State, Hampton of Virginia State, Hampton. There was very little to choose between the guards. The lot was good among the few. The elimination caught Hester, Veeney, Cooper and Hampton of Union and Oliver of Virginia State as men for berths on the first eleven The Centers The roster of centers was exceedingly small, which makes one ask great centers when this post was as much in the lineup as any other center. The State and Smith of Union were the only two offered. Here was another instance where there was more effort. The were about equally matched in skill, speed, aggressiveness and the ability to slip. The was the unanimous choice for the pivot job, shading Harrison through to lead and fine fighting qualities. The Backs The backs, the big guns of the scoring attack behind a good defense, was large as in most years. All of the teams did not have an excellent array of backs, but those few blessed with them had them in full numbers. These backs were hard and fast runners, quick thinkers, many of the patients who are a量大的人. They were the most of the people of Lincoln. Royall, A and T., Lewis of Lincoln, Royall, Dabney and Cropp of Virginia State, Smith and Bounds of St. Paul, Cotten, Washington, Burton and Robinson of Union. It was thought at the outset that the task of eliminating would be quite hard and after taking the consolidation things that were on the front of the team. All of these backs were wonderful ball carriers. Some coupling this with a strong defense and the ability to do more than one thing. Some of these backs were quickly eliminated when it was found to be unhelpful and they were not going to be in their teams, especially in the important assignments on the season's schedule. An injured man, regardless of his greatness, is a liability to his coach, team and teammates. Most of these inquired men did not get on the information. I am not the season's only begain nursing their battle scars early along the path, staying out from one to three games. Those men who carried on to the end, proving their worth in every encounter as long as they are willing to defend it if ever holding their comms up on account of injuries, are Burton of Union and Royall of Virginia State as halfbacks. Both men displayed their skills, and Royall, according to records, having the advantage over all other backs in the loop. Bounds of Virginia State, beginning with the campaign improved with every game, being the high-point scorer of the association, a big, strong, dependable offensive player, lands the job at the fullback post. The Quarterbacks Johnson and Murphy were offered as quarterbacks for the first eleven, and he was an ordeal as had been expected. Lawrence Johnson of Virginia State, unaware that he would be due to his execution as well as the selection of plays, a wonderful forward passer and an inspiration to any quarterback. He was back for the first eleven. Other good quarterbacks were Smith of St. Paul, who also played at this post, and John. The Second Team Since Howard did not play enough games in the association to be eligible for the championship the com- pany would be eligible for honors on the all-star eleven. Ends: Johns Williams, Union; Powell, Virginia State; Tackles: La- mary, Union; Kane, Luke; Gunzels, Center; Harrison, Virginia State; Quarterback: Buss Williams, Union; Hailbacks: Smith, St. Paul, and Maxie Johnson, Union; Fullback: Honorable Mention Enda: Wells, St. Paul; Pegram, Virginia State; Lowe, St. Paul; Jew- wels, St. Paul; Tackies; Hunter, Hampton; Jeankins, A. and T.: Robinson, Virginia State; Guards; Cooper, Virginia State; Cowers; Centers; Barabin, Virginia State; James, Lincoln; Gates; Jimpton; Spruill, St. Paul; Quarterbacks; Carter, A. and T.: Walker, Shaw; Backs; Washington; Union; Lewis, Gregory; George Williams, Virginia State; Moore, Guess and Jones of Hampton, Most Valuable Mention This Coleman of A. and T. has been adopted the most valuable player to his team. While Coleman did not play in the A. team, he was worth to the A. and T. team was clearly demonstrated. Just his presence meant much to a much-deployed team. Other candidates offered worse status in the Alabama State and Murphy of St. Paul. Submitted by C. L. A. A. All-Star committee: W. A. Johnson Jr. chairman: C. O. Copage. W. L. I. Gibbs. E. P.

State Elects Basil Oliver for 1930 Football Captain 17,000 FANS JEER FIELDS JONES FIGHT Referee Halts Bout in Seventh Round By C. ELLIOTT FREEMAN JR. Boston, Mass., Dec. 13.—Apparently swayed by the jeers, boos and whistling of 17,000 fight fans, who took advantage of their inalienable rights in booing fighters, Referee Joseph O'Connor stopped the bout between Jackie Fields of Los Angeles, Calif., welterweight champion of the world, and William (Gorilla) Jones of Akron, Ohio, one of the challengers for the title, and called the bout "no contest." The fight was stopped after 45 seconds in the seventh round of their school's 14-round bout at the Bos-Garden. Rumors started several hours before the bout began, but the winner, win, agreed to wildfire, as rumors of that kind usually did. This is probably the reason for the crowd. The fans booed, jeered and hissed for six rounds in fact, started almost before the men warmed up, and organized demonstration against them. Commissioner Ireneuge Buckley, a ringing singer, was on the floor, and the fight was on the level. He also said that "the decision of no contest implies that the boxers were not in the best shape, that case has the privilege of holding up their money. He did not do this and both boxers must be paid and given the prize, which was the case of Toftey and Kyrne. Commissioner Nyland, who was also a ringing singer, said that they were trying to do their best, but it didn't seem to me that they were trying too hard to hurt Jones had the best of the fight as far as it went, winning the first round when he knocked the champion, though the champ rose without a count. Jones also won the fourth and fifth with both of them, the body and the hands, and Flies grazed. The sixth could be called a draw. It is the consensus of opinion of the judges that made a grave mistake and that he was influenced by the boxers and feers of the crowd, which was prejudiced to be very nervous. The reason the fight looked like a fake to the fans was because Fields played a rushing game. Jones with his long arms had to get set before being able to hit the ball. Fields made Jones look and the fight worse. The injuries of Fields, although recognized by persons who understand did not make a hit with the crowd. By Fields keeping on of Jones, which kept him him tight, the fight better, although he tried hard to land one of his famous haymakers. There was no injury by both fields; although fields' blows ended on Fields' arms and gloves, while the jabs of Fields did not appear to inside hoops always seemed to graze the champion without doing any actual harm. But as it seemed as if Jones was hating the greater part of the time, but, as was said in another part of this article, Jones could not fight any longer the pace Fields was slowing unless he had a motor cycle to help him. Petersburg, Va., Dec. 14—Ball B. Oliver, of Crewe, Pa., was named the Virginia State team of Virginia State college by a vote of the 20 men awarded the title.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1929 Kelly Miller High Defeats Douglas Gridders, 20 to 6, for W.Virginia Prep Title Charleston, W.

Receiving the ball on their 20-yard line after Meadows of Douglass and詹姆斯, they ran up and passing attack and marched 50 yards for a touchdown. Williams pitched the last pass.

At this point Huntington started a drive which carried Milkier to Clarkburge's 5-yard line only to have the whistle blow and end the half just as they were a few yards back. The outstanding performer in this drive, making runs of 10 and 20 yards, played by Dasy, who played a stellar game. In the third quarter Kelly Miller opened up his forward pass attack attempting several end runs which failed to gain. McCoy threw a pass pitched when Dusty, Douglass half-interfered with the receiver. With the ball on their 40-yard line, McCoy notched it in succession. One netted 12 yards and the other nine yards.

Jim Taylor to Manage Memphis Sox Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 20.—Candy Jim Timm, one of the most colorful baseball players today, is to manage the Memphis Red Sox for the next two seasons, it was announced at the offices of Dr. E. E. Nesbitt, president of the Memphis club, at Anderson, S.C. He started playing professional baseball at Birmingham, Ala. June 26, 1904, and played three pro games with the Memphis club with Birmingham from 1904 to 1908: in 1909 at St. Paul, Minn., with the St. Paul Club Giants; in 1911 with West Baden and St. Louis Giants; in 1912 with the Chicago American Giants; in 1914 to 1918 with the Chicago Giants; in 1919 with St. Louis Ohio; in 1920 with St. Louis, Ohio, with the Dayton Marces; was manager of the Dayton Marces in the first year of the Marces' Cleveland and 1923 as Toledo, Ohio. July 15, 1923 he went to St. Louis as manager of the St. Louis Stars; in 1923-25 and 1927 to St. Louis at St. Louis; in 1928 in Cleveland. He is the only man that has managed a club every year since the 1920s, and the only league, Taylor has always had a good club and the best drawing clubs that ever played in the towns that developed his clubs from young material, and some of the best players now in the game were of his making. Bill Cannady of the Homeestead Gray, Branham, Claude Johnson, Murray, catcher, and many others. Louis with the St. Louis Stars. In 1923 the Stars were a poor seventh place club. In his first year at St. Louis with the St. Louis Stars. In 1923 the best year St. Louis ever had, he finished second, winning one half and losing the playoff four games to three. He managed Cleveland in 1928. In St. Louis in 1927 he finished in third in won four games of season and holding it the entire first half; played Chicago for playoff and won St. Louis first and only in 1922 finished in second place. Under proper conditions, Taylor claims, the St. Louis Stars from 1925 to 1929 were one of the best baseball clubs ever gotten together, and with few exceptions the club was of his own making. Some of the Stars that were developed almost from-rookies were Riles, Bell, B. Russell, Wells, Creacy, Suttles, J. Russell, H. Williams, Davis, J. Williams, Trent and Pallus. Jim Taylor is a brother of the famous Steel-Arm John Taylor, pitcher; A. C. Taylor, manager of the famous A. B. C.s of Indianapolis, and Ben Taylor, one of the best first basemen in Race baseball. Taylor always maintained that a club with perfect harmony and discipline could win. Learning that Jim Taylor would no longer manage the Stars, the press and secured him to manage the Memphis Red Sox for 1930-31. Jim Taylor led the Red Sox to a part of November and held a conference with the owners, when an affinity was given him to build a good baseball team. The Martin brothers are behind a proposition it can't fail. Much credit is due the owners and Dr. E. K. Nesbitt, who plays a good baseball club. Dr. Nesbitt says: "Memphis fan deserve one, and we are going to play it until it has been accounted." Memphis made no money this haseball season. We can say that the team has been playing roll ever before, besides paying over 11,500 of 1922 back salaries, the don't over a player a dime. Witness the national league, who is now playing winter ball in Cuba. Curl glass, beet-left handed choir in the Nationals, pitcher: Laurent, infielder, and probably Roders, outfielder, the gossip will be new faces. Spring trail will be hot Springs or some place in Texas. BURT HL SAGERS CORP Clarksville, Tennessee, Dec. 13 — Bur high school cagers took a 24 to 2 argument from the Earlington high school five on the winner's floor.

YOUNG By FRANK A. YOUNG According to reports from Jack Dempsey's office in the Burnham building, Jackkie Fields, welterweight champion, and Young Jack Thompson of California will meet again in the same ring and at the same place, the Coliseum, 16th St. and Wabash Ave., where Fields won a ten-round decision over the coast boxer ten months ago after a stumpede had halted activities in the seventh round. The proposed bout will take place on Jan. 17, Ben Franklin's birthday. Fields has two wins over Thompson in California a year ago and in again last March in Chicago in a fight which was billed for the world. Pans claimed at that time the title wasn't clear. Since then the West side boy has met and defeated him in the world champion, Judge lost on a foul, although many believe the foul was intentionally committed as Fields was way out in Thompson had smacked Dundee all over the ring in Chicago on the South side and knocked him out. The victory, while not a surprise to the close followers of the westerner, was, however, a complete surprise to the betting element in the Loop. Thompson was master of the auction and looks like his world bester. The about was not for the title. The boxing commission, then sitting, allowed both fighters to come in overweight. It was strongly whispered that Jack was around the welterweight limit when he stepped in the ring that night, having taken off several "extra pounds" after weighting. His victory brought him nationwide publicity. I had no time to write the book to me. The minute the bout was over, Thompson and Manager, Ray Alvis, went after the Fields match and finally confined Promoter Jim Mullen that it was "a natural." But the wild youth in Thompson held away. He was an idol on the South side and be was the hero of the folks who spend the nights enjoying themselves. Rumors went hither and you about Jack's condition. The funds received bets on the even of the Week Night. His manager ad�ing the book was something wrong. In the ring that night Fields plainly won. He didn't have any easy time of it, but he won. Because he is a Jewish boy we aren't going to take any credit away from his winning. We sat at the ringside and saw Thompson a complete reversal of form for the first six rounds. He did look like a Jack. Then came the seventh and the never forgetable stampede right as Jack seemed to find himself and start a rally. Some fans claim that the halt of activities while the folks were calmed down upset Jack. To our honest opinion, Jack couldn't win that night. Jack packed his duds and went West and took a rest. He married. He has been taking care of himself. He evidently he has learned " good lesson. He went to Minneapolis and defeated Wells with ease. He has won other bouts. We saw him work out in the gym the other day. Does he look like the Thompson that knocked out Mr. Dundee, then the world champion of the wellters? We'll say he does. He looks better than he ever did. His footwork is the same. His follow-up is good as if they say. Since the Fields-Thompson match no mixed matches have taken place, the commission won't sanction any and at the present time five of our players are ineligible. The legislature are seriously considering a bill to repeal boxing in the state. The Kid Chocolate fight was here alight, but the Cuban, Santiago, another Cuban, has fought boys, but the rest are white and white or Colored and Colored. In other words, boxing has been run for "whites" only. Now and then the night's show might get a crack at one another. So far the new commission. If needed, the promoters don't make any mixed matches. The promoters in turn haven't made any because they know the commission. The mixed match had nothing to do with the stampede. The stammered febrile excuse against mixed matches, Dempsey is the only promoter who has had the courage to go against quotations without regard to race, creed or color.

PENNANT Prairie View Eleven for Intersectional Game With Fisk at Houston New Year's Houston, Tex., Dec. 20.—Returning from the Mississippi game with a victory under their belt, the Prairie View Panthers were given but one day's rest and then put through stiff scrimmages in preparation for their game with the Fisk university eleven of Nashville on New Year's day. This will be the second annual inter-session play for the Texas game, which was held in 1922 by the university eleven of Atlanta, Ga., in the closing minute of play, 7 to 0. The game will be for the best part of the game on even terms. The Atlanta team had ended a hectic season in a triple and acclaimed coach should have been champions. The Prairie View eleven had finished third in the Texas conference and their team should have invaded won them many admirers.

It was Alken who sent a sub in the game in the closing minutes of play and gave orders to an intercepted pass by Joe Jones, who scurpered 90 yards for a touchdown, that cost Prairie View the game.

Harry taking the well-known nose dice in the third round, after Harry, who used to be a steedcore, had lugged him around like a bale of corn on the cob, and no one of some $0,000 fans, who could not see the funny side of it all when they thought of the sheiks who had died at Ebbets field some time back when Ebbets Uzcudun put him to sleep. The gent they said Jack Dempsey was afraid to light. Wills last night was afraid to light. He was then heid at Ebbets field some time back when Ebbets Uzcudun put him to sleep. Harry halls from Mexico, and is said to hold some sort of title in that stormy country. For the benefit of all concerned, he should be allowed to just why he fell down is a mystery. No blow was struck and as soon as the count had been completed Castano rose, looking bewildered, this is his way up. Wills weighted 225 and Castanese 195. Harry Smith, a real tough Colored man, had a real tough color for their money in what had cronically been billed as the 10-round sentimental, by hattering Billy Kohut to the Kobut was no much for Smith, who has a real future before him, and the reference orders the fracers stopped losing too much blood from the nose and mouth. The Cuban dwarf, with a juridic glitter in his eye, had an exasperating 10-round session with Freddy Lattano, a tough Bronxite, being saved by the belt in the eight when he was grougly and paralyzed from a terrific bombardment. Black pinstriped set for the kill, and whipped a durry or rights and lights to Lartano's badly battered jaw, but the times and came back for more. In the both round Black Bill made another desperate but futile attempt to get more steady as the steam departed from Billy's piston-like punches.

Santeleo bleed politically from the nose and mouth during the mots, but he is not smart enough for an open-ended storm. He few more lessons in the defensive art.

Here and there on the Roepelmann a bone micro sculpture, made by white musicians. One of those was John Gerlover, who said that he lived in Roepelmann. I got stung. Seeing a rather attractive theater we went in after paying a fee and arrived at a restaurant, and when we entered we noticed that those who were banched in seats either close to the stage or far from it. The center was some good seats there we stored for them. When we sat down the waiter wanted to know what we wished to drink, he asked, "What are you having anything, we had come to see the show, but not noting that everybody else had a glass of beer before him or her we ordered wine." We were turning up his nose, "you must order wine. You're sitting in the wine seats." So now we understood why those came before us had to drink the choice seats. Well, there seemed nothing else for us to do but order wine, although there were a bottle. In the meantime couples were dancing on the floor and we inquired what that show would look like. We learned the features worth seeing would not come on until 2 a.m. it was then we watched the dancing, our wine most untouched before us, when the water brought us the bill. The wine never brings the bill unless asked to, so this was a gentle hint that we should drink up and get another drink. That meant three more bottles at $3 each. We left. Next morning I saw the same bill had been sitting in the seats reserved for Americans with more money than brains. Interesting invention I saw in Hamburg was an elevator that run of itself. All you had to do was to enter the elevator and you would be something like a moving sunrail, running on both sides, one for up, the other for down. We would take you right up, over the top, and down again. It moved sufficiently slow to permit jumping on or off without From Hamburg we went to Berlin, and I must confess that I felt quite a little ill. I think in think, twenty-six years ago, when I was working so hard in America, not knowing where the next dollar was to come from, I was in Europe. At that time London, Berlin and Paris all meant only so many words to me on paper, can one only imagine what should work toward getting it. America, in spite of all its prejudices, is full of opportunity, but one man must have the determination and will use the energy. Morely wishing for things and then sitting down and beaten up, I think they he working gets us nowhere. Besides there is a peculiar joy in winning things for one's self. I know that I have enjoyed my trip much more because it is the result of long years of hard struggle than if some one had paid my way. Berlin is a magnificent city, and reminds one of a well-kept, orderly home as only Germans know how to keep. Indeed this fact is true of all Germany, even the smallest village I saw. Everything is kept up, and nothing allowed to run down. The more I saw of the German people and their way of doing things the stronger grew my admiration for them. We colored people need to get some of their admirable ways of doing things in our blood. The city has a population of 4,000,000, and it is said to cover a greater area than any other. But the same has been said of Chicago and Philadelphia. It is unlike most European cities in that it shows some attempt to planning. The streets run in squares and it is not so easy to get lost as it is in Paris. London, Amsterdam or almost any other city are very home. However, Berlin wasn't always like this, and we were not Amok Koeh, which was left as a sample of what the old city was like. I understood that it was important for the improvement. By all accounts he did a lot of good for the country, and he amused to think that Germany had him love him yet. Berlin is the city of fine museums and beautiful buildings. Among the most notable of these museums are the Brandenburger gate at the north entrance, the most noted thoroughfare; that of the Emperor William I, which is very striking; the column of the Berliner Museum, which was removed from French in 1871, and the statue of Bismarck, both of which are in front $\textcircled{1}$ $\textcircled{4}$ $\textcircled{3}$ $\textcircled{2}$ $\textcircled{5}$ There is no color line in Germany, it was definitely established by Editor Robert S.

These statues are larger than life size, and have semicircular shape. The Unter den Linden is a wide-throughfare with an avenue of trees and bridges.

SMYTHE CO., Box 30, Newark, N.O. 500,000 HELD AS SLAVES IN LIBERIA CHITTIM (CYPRUS) The GREAT SEA According to tradition, all this vast region was under the control of King David DAVID'S EMPIRE DAVID'S OWN TERRITORY Ruwat Egypt Jerusalem This boundary like extending from the Red Sea to the Caucasus Rivers as about 450 miles long WILDERNESS of PARAN Elatha This is the eastern horn of the Red Sea. THE moment David heard of the tragedy on Mt. Gibbo, he took his men and marched quickly up to Hebron, the chief city of Judah, to have himself made the new king. It was not difficult for him to achieve this. The southern tribes had all along been resive under the rule of Saul, who had belonged to the north, and they had no desire now to accept his son as their king. They much preferred David, who was one of their own. David was a valiant warrior, and in addition a man of wealth, for he had married a rich widow named Abigail. He seemed eminently fitted for the throne, and therefore the elders of Judah assembled in Hebron and without further aid appointed him their king. So now there were two kingdoms in the tiny strip of hill-country belonging to the Hebrews. The northern tribes took a son of Saul named Ishbaal (or Ishbosheth) as their monarch, and declared war on the south. The Philistines must have been highly satisfied with this state of affairs, for they knew that so long as the Hebrews were divided they were helpless prey. But David, too, knew this, and he therefore at once set himself the task of winning over the north. It was no easy task, for in his overtures he had to be most careful not to arouse either the jealousy of the southerners or the antagonism of the Philistines. But David was a man of quite extraordinary cleverness, and was not unequal to so difficult a situation. It took almost eight years before he attained his end—but attain it he did. The hapless young king of the north, Ishbaal, was assassinated by his own captains, and David became monarch of the whole land. A second time he was anointed in Hebron, but this time by the tribes of the north as well as the south. Of course, the moment David was recrowned, he had to reckon anew with the Philistines. They had had no fear of the young man so long as he was an outlawed freebooter, or the leader of a hill-tribe or two; but now that he was king of all Israel they thought it well to snuff him out immediately. So up marched a great army to attack him, and David was forced to retreat to Adulam, his old mountain stronghold. There he had a distinct advantage, for the Philistine army with its chariots was unwieldy in the hills. If attempts National Baptist Executive Board in Florida Session Completes Jubilee Plans BY PAGE M. BEVERLY Tampa, Fla. Dec. 20.—The executive board of the National Baptist convention, Inc. met here from Wednesday, Dec. 11, through Sunday the first day. L. K. Williams, president of the National Baptist convention and pastor of Olivet Baptist church, Chicago, presided over the sessions and delivered the chief address in the municipal auditorium to one of the largest mixed audiences in the country. Mayor D. P. Mekay of the city commended the address of Dr. Williams very highly, as being sane and of a nature to do much good to aid race relations in Florida and to encourage music for the occasion. The singers were in charge of Mrs. H. E. Jones, wife of the entertaining pastor, and Miss Franklin Williams of the public school system of Hillsborough county, to which she offered a $5,000 for the jubilee which is to be held in the Coliseum, Chicago, the week fol- were made to dislodge him, none could succeed. Finally he himself took the offensive and, marching over to the plain of Rephaim in the central highlands where the Philistines were encamped, he joined battle with them and forced them to recoll. A second time his little army struck them a smashing blow, routing them completely. And then in terrible confusion the Philistines fled back to their own lands. With the Philistine menace ended, David now addressed himself to making his own throne completely safe. He realized his first need was a capital, but he knew that no stronghold already in his possession could well fill the need. He saw that if he favored one city he would arouse the jealousy of all the rest; if he established his throne within the territory of one tribe he would immediately incur the displeasure of all the others. There was still anything but a feeling of complete union among the Hebrew clans, and the antagonism—especially between the north and south—seemed ready to break out into open dissonation on the least proxication. Early in the history of the United States a capital had to be chosen, and it was found necessary, in order to avoid all jealousies, to build an entirely new city—Washington. That in a way was a recurrence of David's experience, except that the Hebrew king did not build a city—he and his folk were as yet altogether too poor for that—but captured one. In the very midst of the kingdom there stood a certain stronghold which the Hebrews had never been able to take from the natives. Jobus it was called, and it stood on a high spur of limestone surrounded on three sides by sharp gullies. David realized he could not possibly capture the fortress by open attack, for it commanded every ordinary approach. So he set out to discover some extraordinary approach, and found it in a water tunnel which led from a spring down in the gully right up into the very midst of the city. And through this tunnel he led an attack which so surprised the Jebusites that they were rendered helpless. The stronghold was taken and made the capital of Israel. Jerusalem it came to be called, and as Jerusalem it still stands there—the most significant city in the history of our world. Next Week—The Realm of David 12.

Austin of Chicago from the chairmanship of the foreign mission board was brought up against much Washington, D. C., and U. J. Robin. Dr. Williams ruled that the matter could be brought before the board because it had been misstated all over the country and the matter should be covered. Rev. J. H.

Chicago Perender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY RELIABLE FOR 24 YEARS CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, DECEMBER The Week HAVE you wondered what the United States plans to do about Haiti? If you have, you have done just what thousands of other Americans have been doing since Haiti fell into American churches back in the 1960s as expressed by enlightened Americans: The New York Telegram: "Haitian students charge that instructors have been sent to teach them agriculture who can't speak French, but who come in salaries and fat exchange accounts. "If true, this reveals a kind of meddling that is singularly pernicious. While we may be justified in sending auditors to see that the customs accounts are properly kept, it is not true that we need to impose the burden of unit teachers on an impoverished country." The Rocky Mountain News of Denver prints this letter from Fritz Custer: "The unfamiliar even, with the occupation of Haiti and the occupation of the government functions of the island republic, the very presence of the marines implies force in all of most objectifiable manifestations." The United States hasn't much to boost of in its relation to Haiti, declares Heywood Brown, noted columnist and one of your best friends in the United States, who has no possible reason for saying that we have done well in Haiti. Results show that this simply is not true. At the end of fourteen years the country has been in a state of "siege" this outburst is by no means confined to savage men from inland villages. The young men of the cities, whom we have been talking about, "must be a kink in the curriculum somewhere or other." "Kindness and cannon go poorly together. Possibly we have good intentions, but we have even better machine guns." Now, an instance of how a person can be misficcient, and yet give out misleading information, is shown in Arthur Brisbane's column, Today, as a case of misfiction. Syndicate, Brisbane, usually sane in his judgment, has allowed his mind to run true to the Anglo-Saxon creed in this matter. He, evidently, was feeling so well the day he wrote this; "Mr. Henry Neil writes, I propose to pay you $30,000. If you will spend your time thoroughly instructing conditions, it is an excellent offer, as Mr. Weber once said to Mr. Fields, but it is possible to write usefully about Haiti here in our newspapers, without ordering Mr. Neil $30,000. "For instance, two important French newspapers suggested that the league of nations should look into the Haiti matter and tell the United States that to do about it. They think we are trying to rob those poor Haitians. "By and by, perhaps, when we get the work done, we will be the back door address of the league of nations, Europe will have a chance to give us instructions. "Meanwhile, we are doing our best to fit for the Haitians, such they are. "They are not yet civilized fully. "It is only 24 years since they murdered their own president in the public square, bisembowelling him and some of the educated Haitian had probably read that 'drawing and quartering' was the punishment for traitors. "The French locked up Toussaint L'Ouverture, the best man who ever ruled Haiti. "After that Jean Jacques Deallines, Colored, became governor, promptly massacring all the whites and many blacks, foroer the assassinated, because he was a little too tyrannical even for Haiti. "Next Henry Christophe established himself as 'King Henry the Great,' and built his big castle and fort, still worth seeing, on top of a high mountain. "Haiti is a member of the league of nations if you please. States went in to help, in 1915, everything in the black republic was going to decay, irrigation' projects, started under the French colonial abstraction. His island's production and foreign trade were dwindling, the courts were comically corrupt. Education had stopped, except for work done by French Catholic priests to overy and disloyal settlers worse. "If the league of nations believes that that situation can be met with kind words, let it go over and experiment. "President Hoover doubtless will be gind to give the league even opportunity to make the responsibility and not insist on the Monaco doctrine." THE Democratic party of Alabama has kicked Senator Tom-Tom Hefflin out. He supported Herbert Hoover for the presidency in 1925, but he was not a party for that reason he is no longer worthy to be called a Democrat. "Suits me," retorts Mr. Hefflin, "I'll just run on an independent ticket and show the Democrats who the voters want." He has 100,000 or 150,000 votes without the aid of the party. And the sad part of it all is that the chances are that he will. For there is neither Democratic nor Republican when your people are the ones who everybody knows that Hefflin, being white, dry (this does not include Tom Hefflin Jr.), Protestant - and anti-Negro, Republican - and the last item, unless some other candidate can out-Negro him.

With the restoration of order in Haiti, the additional force of 500 marines which was on its way to that country, was diverted to the American naval base at Guantanamo, Cuba, the state department announced last Tuesday. The state department summarized the situation in Haiti as follows: "Cables received this morning indicate that the situation in Haiti is better and that the cities where disturbances broke out are now under control. This reason, on the recommendation of General Russell, it has been decided that there is no present need of the additional force of marines and the Wright has been detained and sent to Haiti. President Hoover was urged by Representative Hamilton Fish Jr. Republican, of New York, last Thursday, to appoint at least one Rice to investigate conditions in Haiti, with a view to formulating a more definite policy as to the attitude of the United States toward that republic. We assume the president, Representative Fish Jr. said, is sympathy with his recommendation for the appointment of a commission to inquire into the occupation and administration of Haiti, and report policies which will prepare the educated Haitians to establish a representative, responsible and orderly government by 1936, when American marines and officials will be withdrawn and ordinance with the terms of the treaty. Mr. Fish said that it is essential to secure the co-operation and confidence the education and the education an important voice in the administration of their governmental affairs. He stated that he hopes a civilian high commissioner with the Haitian people, but who also could help solve their difficult political and economic problems, would be appointed in the near future. Representative Fish urged that the president appoint at least "one well known Colored American" on the proposed commission and suggested that he be the secretary-treasurer of Howard university; James Welton Johnson, author and secretary of the National Association of People, and Representative Oscar DeFriest. He expressed the belief that each of them is qualified and has the confidence of the 12,000,000 Americans involved in the solution of this difficult and delicate problem which the United States has in Haiti.

About Haiti Heflin Gets the Gate All's Well—So Far South Africa Teems With Mysteries for Visitors Miss Zonia Raber, united Chicago educator and student, was among the large crowd that attended the meetings of the British association at Cape Town, South Africa, the past summer. While there, she divided her time between attending sessions of the association and learning some facts about that country. Her story has been prepared for The Chicago Defender in five sections, of which this is the first. INSTALLMENT 1 A GLIMPSE OF OUR SOUTH AFRICAN EXPERIENCES Bv ZONIA BABER AFTER landing in Cape Town, July 17, 1929, life became a strenuous rush-receptions, excursions, lectures by members of the British association experts in the sciences included in the association, filled all our waking hours and made heavy drafts upon time which should have been devoted to sleep. Lectures began at 9 a. m. and continued till 12:30 p. m. with an imperative interval from 11 to 11:30 for tea. It mattered not how interesting, exciting or important the discussion of a paper might be, when 11 o'clock came tea outweighed every other consideration; at 11:30 those whose interest had not been diverted from the subject during the social half hour returned and continued the discussion. Four o'clock was another sacred hour devoted to tea. A call for tea was unnecessary, for as a speaker neared the important hour he could feel the change in interest of his audience. And there he can hope interesting lectures each hour life would have been simple and delightful, but when one had to choose one from a list of from eight to twelve occurring the same hour, each of which one would have been empty. The hardest work of life is choosing the next step unless there is an emotional urge. Our grief due to being obliged to attend a memorial, what assuaged by the excellence of the summaries of the significant lectures given by the daily press. From one to three entire pages of the news articles, the meetings were held entirely devoted to the British association. Of the 350 lectures given during the session, the most important, perennially evaluated by the leading members of the association present, was the address given by the president, Sir W. W. B. World's Mineral Resources, Their Place in the Structure of Modern Civilization and Their Importance in the World. On account of the world importance of many of the statements in this scholarly presentation it may have been enabled to the United States papers. About Minerals He showed how minerals had come to form the essential basework of modern civilization, and declared: "We only two nations that can fight for long on their own natural resources are the British empire and the United States. If they agree in refusing to export mineral products to their nation that inflict Kellogg pact, to war an last very long." Sir Thomas Hillham dismissed the idea of the "Yellow Peril" as a subterranean threat, and press noncritical hearers, and said, "China, as well as other countries of the Far East, is deficient in those essential deposits of minerals on which our mechanized form of civil There were several other lectures that received much comment in the South African press. Of those two, Dr. J. S. Haldane, Oxford, England, and "Excavation of Great Zimbabwe" by Miss G. Caton-Thompson, a noted English archaeologist. Those of special interest to South Africa the author of the book is of major concern as miners' philists has been one of the plagues of mining in South Africa. Dr. Haldane and once recommended the use of dust in this lecture in this lecture he recommended the use of dust from different kinds of rock that found in the mine. He said the constant dampness was the cause of the health of the miners. Since mining is the leading industry of South Africa so far as wealth is concerned (possibly agriculture may be slightly easier to understand the great interest infused in Dr. Haldan's suggestion. Miss Caton-Thompson's lecture also created a great deal of comment, and a great association to assert the date of construction of "Zimbabwe," located in southern Rhodesia, about 1,500 miles southeast of Victoria, and miles southeast of the nearest railroad station, Fort Victoria. This part of the great plateau of South Zimbabwe is about 3,000 feet above sea level. Zimbabwe is the most important of the 500 or more similar ruins found there, and Rhodesia in an area 700 by 800 miles. Zimbabwe History The mystery that hangs over this ancient city built by dressed blocks of granite without mortar, consisting of almost impregnable walls for defense, and a large sample containing phallic symbols, and many ruins of undetermined buildings, is intriguing to the most proselytic as well as the most militaristic Haggard. It has been said that Zimbabwe provided the description for the residence of "She," this battling mass of ruins as to time of erection, and the influence in his "Allan Quartermain," "Elissa or the Doom of Zimbabwe" and "King Solomon's Mines." There are no inscriptions nor decorations in the northeast wall of the temple where the blocks of granite are arranged in the "chevron pattern," which is ancient hieroglyph for water as well as the zodiac sign for Aquarius. So great was the interest in the report on the Zimbabwe rules that the room in which the lecture was to be given was given before the scheduled time for the address. To accommodate the large and disappointed audience that arrived after the room was filled the lecture was broadcast to the front of the room.

The overflow meeting was deprived of the stereopiction pictures with which she illustrated her lectures, but lessened to the use of photographs as to date of construction and the probable builders, points of much controversy. Some of the archaeologists who have examined the ruins have been called to Zimbabwe, as well as the ruins of other cities built of stone that stretch across southern Rhodesia, were built by a civilized people, perhaps from India or Arabia, who were not native to the region. Miss Cauton-Thompson took away the glamour of great antiquity when she said the city must have been built between 700 and 1400 A. D. and furious that she would not have a trace of a degenerate offshoot of a higher oriental civilization, but of a vigorous native civilization, unsuspected by all, but a few students, showing a national organization of an amazing industry, and typically African Bantu in character." This statement gave much joy to the animals. They brought much adverse criticism from those who believe the Bantu is little higher than the lower animals.

Berry The time is 1931. Stalin, Soviet dictator of Russia, has been massacring a young half-Mongol general, ambitions for world conquest. To this end he sows the seeds of communism in every capital of Europe. Asia and Africa and gathers vast stores or war equipment, summably the block, fall for his tremendous scheme to destroy white supremacy and make all races one With China and Japan in control of the revolution of the North African Arabs engaging the attention of the principal European powers, Karakhan or Karahan, the Red Napoleon", beaten by his proxaganda, is soon overrun. The French are beaten after a stiff fight and the "Red Napoleon" is momentarily halted by the English channel and the English fleet, as was the case with Hitler. However, these obstacles are soon overcome: London is taken, the stubborn Irish subdued, Australia humbled, Africa and South America invaded, and he prepares to crush America. Every means of propaganda, principally the radio, is used by Karakhan to arouse the American forces. The New Yorker has freed complete equality in everything should they revolt. The Panama canal is bawn up, the American fleet is sunk, the New Yorkers are the 'Red Napoleon' on three fronts—from Mexico, British Columbia and Quebec. New England is devastated, New York City held in siege, the British are stiffen and hold while every ounce of energy is brought forth. The counter attack on land crumbles before the enemy's stronger defense and saturates the ground, turning their attention to the bottled fleet. In the battle of Windward passage, the most thrilling imaginative battle ever put on paper, the British are annihilated, their lines of communication cut. And Karakhan, again following in the footsteps of his famous namesake, in the infamous Russian campaign, the British home and not certain whether he will get back. With the situation in hand a concentrated land, sea and air attack wins for the Americans, as might Mr Gibbons has been very careful in his book. He has made his "feed Napoleon" the offspring of white and yellow parents. He has him nurtured from an early age, when other boys are shooting, marbles, or, at worst sprures. England and America do not see their danger until too late and the Reds take them one by one. This is strange, considering that English speaking nations with regard to world peace back in 1923-24 he persists, actually delights, in calling the Red army "Yellow hordes," although it is composed of white, black and brown women, prefer white women.

From four to six millions of human beings are still living under conditions of actual slavery and untold more millions are in semislavery, according to a sensational book just published. The denunciation of these conditions is contained in the book, 'Slavery' by Lady Simon, wife of the distinguished statesman, Sir John Simon. Her accusations are directed against Alyssina as the worse offender, but she does not spare Portugal, Great Britain or the United States. She is also pacing pleasure in the Philippines Islands where laborers find themselves bound for life to their employers. In Portugal colonies the slave trade and slave traders still flourish, although modestly called "contract laborers." And Great Britain To Hongkong, the British possession in China, there is a custom for parents of their children or for work or work for domestic service. Lady Simon says "these children may be systematically beaten, cursed, tortured, or even without redress or penalty inflicted." Although these practices are supposed to be illegal the law in Hongkong approves the use of the 1923 anti-domestic service ordinance was enacted with a declaratory clause stating that children could not be bought or sold, Hongkong has seemed to have ignored In Liberia Perhaps the strangest place for slavery, according to Lady Simon, is Liberia, the free state in West Africa, which was established as home for Negroes from the United States after the Civil war. There are said to be from 100,000 to 500,000 slaves in Liberia, out of a total population of 280,000. Lady Simon notes that the country is run by 15,000 of our group and their descendants from America. The book has created a stir in Liberia as the league has tried vainly to bring the matter of abolition to a head.

On the other hand Mr. Gibbons seems to have been very negligent in places, considering that it is just a matter of time before he is allowed to happen. He might have saved President Al Smith, who was finally elected in 1931, considerable money, and much money, if he had reorganized the old 92d and 93d divisions, backed them up with a couple of divisions of airplanes, and given them orders to retake Harlem. But that would have made the book very much shorter and thrown the emphasis in the eyes of Americans only in times of stress. Nevertheless it is a vividly interesting book, particularly the latter part, which deals with the American phase of the war. But the love story which the author persists in trying to carry right along with the roaring artistry, amusing sings, and so on, are suggesting men seems somewhat out of place and from time to time the narrative lapses as if the story-teller were hastening to fill in gaps or was slurring over things that he wouldn't like to talk about. However, it must be remembered that Mr. Gibbons is nominally a reporter and not a novelist, and the hand of the reporter is seen often than the hand of the novelist. It is difficult for me to determine whether the book is propaganda against war or just another assertion of white supremacy. If the former, it shows enough of the horrors of war to arouse everlasting disgust in the mind of the reader, and the only thing to stop war is universal dissatisfaction. It is. If the later is simply another silly boast of a superiority that nobody finds time to question. All boasting is caused by some kind of apprehension and should such a war be in the offing it is time for apprehension. Section Hand Slays Sallis, Miss.

HOW UNCLE SAM EFFECTED THE TREATY WITH THE HORRIBURG ON HATL The following statements have been taken from a pamphlet issued by Professor Paul Douglas of the University of Chicago. It was first published in the Political Science Quarterly, June and September, 1927: "On Aug. 14, or two days after the election of Dartig enave, the state department instructed Charge Zade to negotiate with Haiti a treaty which would authorize not only American control over collection of customs, but also the appointment by the president of the United States of a financial adviser to draw up the budget and audit expenditures. Haiti was, moreover, to create a constabulary in which Haitian recruits would be offered by Americans designated by the president of the United States. American control over sanitation and public improvements was also mentioned. Recognition was not to be granted the Haitian government until the Haitian congress passed a resolution authorizing the recognition of such a treaty. "The proposed treaty, however, encountered considerable opposition. On Sept. 8, Admiral Caperton called that the treaty situation at present looks more favorable than usual! THIS HAS BEEN EFFECTED BY EXERCISEING MILITARY PRESSURE AT PROPITIOUS MOMENTS IN NEGOTIATIONS. SAMSON, the Haitian secretary of state, resigned, and Louis Borno, who was favorable to the treaty, was appointed in his stead. At one time, indeed, it seemed probable that the president and cabinet would resign rather than sign the treaty; in this event, Admiral Caperton was apparently prepared to set up a military government of the country with an American officer. This was, of course, precise, a sequence of events which asteroid intervention in the sister republic, Santa Domingo in the following year. Marital law, moreover, had been declared by Admiral Caperton on Sept. 3, on the ground that disorder threatened and that 'in accordance with the law of nations and images' of my own and other governments' he was 'invested with the power and responsibility of government in all its functions.' "In the meantime, the department of state on Aug. 19 had asked Admiral Caperton to assume charge of virtually all the customs houses and to use the funds for the creation of a constabulary, for public works and finally for supporting the Dartinageave government." Caperton was to try to get President Dartinageave to ask that the Americans should add the customs houses, but, the instructions added, "Whether president so requests or not, proceed to carry out state department's desires." In view of Haitian opposition to the force and the small size of the American forces, Admiral Caperton urged in reply that such a seizure of customs houses should be postponed until after he was furnished with for additional battalions of marines. As he replied: "United States has now actually accomplished a military intervention in the affairs of Haiti and have existed a number of years against such action. Serious hostile contacts have only been avoided by prompt and rapid military action, which has given the United States control before resistance had time to organize. . . . Consider it imperative that these contemplated operations be kept for the present secret and undertaken only when force is available and customs service organized and ready. This secrecy extremely important now pending treaty negotiations." The custom houses were taken over gradually by Admiral Caperton. Those at Cape Haitien. St. Mark and Gonives were seized during the latter part of August and that at Port au Prince was taken on Sept. 2. This latter seizure, with the desire to force the approval of the treaty, was undoubtedly one of the principal reasons for the proclamation of martial law on the following day. This meant, in effect, that those who forbly opposed the American occupation would be shot after a drum-head court martial. The other customs heads were soon taken and the current re-denominated to Admiral Caperton's account to the National Bank of Haiti, which thus received the treasury services again. "The Haitian president, and his cabinet finally approved, the treaty, on Sept. 16, and the government was immediately recognized by the United States. The Haitian congress was, nevertheless, reluctant to ratify the treaty. The American occupation, however, controlled the finances, and thus could bring pressure to hear on Haitian officials. On Oct. 8 Secretary Daniels instructed Admiral Caperton to furnish the Haitian government weekly amounts necessary to meet current expenses. Use funds collected Haitian customs. Question payment back salary will be settled by department immediately after ratification of treaty. By this means congressmen would be induced to ratify the treaty and thus make certain of their back salaries. This was sufficient to cause the lower house to give its approval. The senate, however, was made of stern stuff and continued to withhold its consent for over a month. On Nov. 9, Secretary Daniels cabled Admiral Caperton as follows: "Arrange with President Dartiguenave that he call a cabinet meeting before the session of senate which will pass upon ratification of treaty and request that you be permitted to appear before that meeting to make a statement. On your own authority state the following: "I have the honor to inform the president of Haiti and the members of his cabinet that I am personally gratified that public sentiment continues favorable to the treaty and that I class for immediate ratification and that treaty will be ratified Thursday. I am sure that you gentlemen will understand my sentiment in this matter, and I am confident that if the treaty fails of ratification that my government has the intention to retain control in Haiti until the desired end is accomplished, and that it will forthwith proceed to the complete pacification of Haiti so as to insure the internal tranquility necessary to the development of the country and its industry as will afford relief to the starving population now unemployed. Meanwhile the present government is ported in the effort to secure stable conditions in housing, whereas those offering assistance only expect such treatment as their conduct musts. . . . Rumors of bribery to defeat the treaty are rife but are not believed. However, should they prove true, those who accept or give bribe will be vigorously prosecuted." "This was, of course, a clear threat to use force if the treaty were not ratified. Thus, the statement that unless the treaty were approved, the United States would forthwith proceed to the complete pacification of Haiti was in the language of diplomacy, tantamount to saying that we would conquer the country by force of arms and set up a government of our own. Similarly the statement that 'those offering opposition (to the treaty) can only expect such treatment as their "conduct merits" was a clear threat that those who opposed ratification, and this, with our military and naval forces in Haiti, was no idle threat. "There is small wonder, therefore, that Secretary Daniels concluded his instructions with the confident words: 'It is expected that you will be able to make this sufficiently clear to remove all opposition and to secure immediate ratification.'" "This message was given to the president and cabinet in the morning, and that afternoon the treaty was ratified in the senate by a vote of 26 to 7." The above article was widely distributed after its publication; a copy was sent to President Coolidge and members of congress. After the inauguration of President Hoover, a copy of this pamphlet was sent to Secretary of State Stimson. Therefore, it is obvious that, not only are the facts contained therein correct, but that they are well known to American officials. Haiti was taken over by this country by force in 1915, and it has maintained a force since that treaty having been forced upon that republic, the natives naturally feel no desire to be bound by it. If ever there is an example of aggrandement—of an imperialistic attitude—it is shown in the relationship between the United States and Haiti! A STUDY IN FIGURES The national prohibition act was passed in 1919. During the 11 years of the existence of this act, America has spent a half-billion dollars in trying to enforce it. Yet this country is not dry. Almost any child in a city like Chicago, Philadelphia or New York can get any kind of liquor he seeks without interference. Since prohibition has been in effect, crime has increased in this country almost 300 per cent. Police have become corrupt; even some of the courts are not now above criticism. Generally, the disrespect for laws has increased since the United States started trying to keep people from drinking intoxicating liquors. On the other hand the government has not spent a cent to protect lives and liberties of its dark citizens. Although there is no definite educational system for them in the southern states the government ignores this condition in its desire to enforce a law that has been on the books for 11 years. If just one-half of the money now appropriated for enforcement of the 18th amendment was set aside for better human relationship in this country, for education of both black and white youth, for abortion, lynchings and penance, for all but all provisions of the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments, there would be a noticeable change of attitude toward the 18th amendment. But as long as the government encourages violations of three amendments it will have to accept violations of others. Thus far the $500,000,000 spent on the 18th amendment has been wasted, and all the people have been losers. OTHER PAPERS SAY A NEGRO CADET AT WEST POINT [St. Paul, Minn., Daily News] An interesting item appeared the other day in a United Press bulletin from West Point, N.Y. It related a brief interview with Alonzo Parham of Chicago, a Negro cadet at the United States military academy. Cadet Parham said: "All orders cannot be issued governing friendships and that such a matter is purely personal. Statements to the effect that cadets have been ordered, not to talk to me are false. "All the officers are giving me a square deal. I have participated in every activity with other fourth-year classmen from the minute of my arrival last July and in addition to the military drills have participated in intramural sports." Which may or may not be said with reservations, but at least it shows that the young cadet is acting, in a difficult situation, very much as a man. Or perhaps cadets let the West Pointers shoot, they would convince a satisfactory method of solving a problem in human relationships. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER - - - RELIABLE FOR 24 YEARS The Human Body THE word serums as used by the medical profession covers a large variety of substances. Vaccines of various kinds, antifoxins, convalescent serums and preventive and curative immunizing substances the nature of which is not fully determined as yet, such as tuberculin—all come under this head. Many of these are well established methods of treatment. Of all forms of medical treatment today they are the most scientific in the sense that their use is the most rational and direct method of attack upon a certain disease. Many others on the contrary are on trial. Still many others which are used rather extensively are considered of little value by careful physicians who have given them careful trial. In such a state of affairs it may be valuable to review all the kinds of serums at present available and give expression to the In such a state or arrives it a kinds of serums at present avail most conservative and measured opinion of the medical profession on these matters.

To be able to wipe out an ancient plague like typhoid fever or smallpox which devastated and killed millions of people over country annually is to have triumphed over sucker enemies than time—as represented by the telegraph message—as represented by the airplane. Does the injection of these serums result in any harm? That question arises when their use is proposed.

To win through, the Negro has had not only a master's degree, but also had to learn to dispense with white patronage; to cease to imitate; to take to himself the meaning of the word "fastest" and the fastest who travels alone. This is all sympathetically treated by Benjamin Brawley in "The Negro in Art" (Duffield & Company, $2). It is a far cry from the verse of Phyllis Wheatley, the slave girl of pre-Revolutionary days whose rather intense passion one as regards a dog walking on its blind legs, to the new note, that is being sounded in letters to the slave girl of Claude McKay, Countee Cullen and James Weldon Johnson; in painting by Henry O.

The article, "Toleration vs. Hatred," by a Crane college student in your issue of Nov. 30 shows to what extent students have been hatred toward torture. The title is enough to show the student labors under false impressions. Is the height of ignorance to think of toleration without hatred. Isn't tolerance impossible without hatred? Negros have always tolerated white. We tolerate lynchings, misgendering, rape and discrimination; we tolerate the white attitude of "Well, what are you going to do about it?" There is small reason for asking Negros to tolerate whites. There is nothing else he can do! Mr. Carraway tolerates the whites, although he confesses his hatred for them, and his hatred is justified. The white race is considered the highest race in this race that manifests the greatest hatred of this nature. For Miss Marum's benefit, fear causes hatred. The Negros must not trust the whites. Negros must not trust the whites. They have caused us enough suffering already. Slavery was controlled through the slave's emotions. Force, the universal language, causes Negroes to tolerate rape and rape. Force to favor causes of le- laboration. What we feel is of no impor- tance to the whites. If it is not locked by power. Our emotion (feel- ance) is played upon by the white whom it incumples with his desire. They realize Negroes are easily led, through their emotion. We cannot advance through our emotions.

They say that whenever a loaf of white bread is carried into a house, a little white bread is poured over it. Only those on the verse of actual insanity believe such rot. But there does remain a minimum residue of truth in the supposition that Serums do harm and certain precautions should always be employed in their use.

Maryland was the first state to enter Europe, entered upon the period of his greatest success when, in 1833, at Covent garden, London, he played Othello to the stage of Shakespeare's time. Aldridge was universally ranked as a great truderman. In the years 1852-55 he played in Germany. In 1857 the king of Spain, King Louis XIV, the king of Prussia, bestowed upon him a first class medal of the arts and sciences. The emperor of Austria gave him an autograph letter, addressed to him, bestowed upon him a decoration. WHAT SOME SEE AND OTHERS PASS OVER Out Hatred Our senseible reasoning is our only hope. Let's cast off this excess burden of emotion complex and inhibition, for "the travels fast who travels light." Can a sensible person believe whiles do not understand what we desire? What we are worth? They know his worth. They are only interested in how to keep him from knowing his worth. If one is to believe "Toleration vs. Hatred," war and war is unknown in America. Let's look about us and think: Isn't our natural desire to advance in conflict with the whites' wish to dominate? Then every Negro that starts a grocery on the corner is causing conflict. Doesn't conflict cause strife. Can't our college student see that conflict and unavoidable if we are to advance? Let's take Detroit and Chicago, not to mention dear old Dixie, and not to remember the body-rescues strife and war. Chicago within the last two years had 760 murders. Eleven men were executed. Detroit police within one six-month period killed 62 persons. Twenty-five of these were Negro men and women. Strife? War? Well, figure it out for Since Mr. Carraway's hatred is justified, can't we pool our desires, abilities and resources when we are fronted by the common enemy? Let's get away from false impressions and heavenly bound ideas which failure us and steel ourselves for the terrible things to come. Let's face reality, things as they are, and let's go on and let's go up.

She erred badly, perhaps because she's never been Wes' o Chicago. Said she: "MAN IS BY NATURE POLYGAMOUS; THERE IS NO ONE I DON'T PRESSED WHEN HE SAYS THAT HE LOVES YOU.

THOMSON, Ph.D. Author of "The Springs of Human Action" Did you ever steal a kiss or a watermelon? And weren't they the sweetest you ever tasted? Adam and Eve fell for the forbidden fruit. They passed on to their descendants an awful hankering for things labeled, "Thou shalt not!" And so it's in our blood. The more immediate causes for hankering after forbidden fruit and curiosity, self-assertion, the desire to beat the game, and a liking for the thing itself. There is no surer method of arousing curiosity than by telling a person that he must not do a certain thing. He will want to do it all the more to see what happens, to enjoy the thrill of danger. A dutiful mother who went out for the afternoon, leaving several small children in the house, had given explicit orders that they must not put beans in their noses. You can guess what happened. It might be good strategy to tell a person not to do what you really want. We can be strong drink is having a similar effect. We can be superiority. We can be not thinking of the penalty, because we do not intend to get caught. We are too clever for that marked "sold" for no other reason than because we can't have it. The main reason why we want forbidden sweets is that we really want them. If no one wanted Forbidden sweets are a challenge to personal liberty and sense of proportions. We resent the implication, some of us, of ourselves. Other people may care of wisdom and self-control, but not us. To be told that we may not do put us in a subordinate position. We must not do so, and do not like to take orders. We prefer THE PEOPLE SAY LET MR. FILIPINO THINK THIS OVER Editor Chicago Defender: Allow me to say to the Filipino who saw it to express himself about the reasons even the Filipino should class himself above the American Negro, that if I belonged to a race of people, among whom there are still tribes of dog eaters, very little or any way removed from the savage, and if so many among us had the facial expressions of monkeys and apes, I certainly would not have the nerve and audacity to once think I was superior to any creature. If he would only look within himself and see just how faux he is himself as an individual, and would give true expressions now on he will be glad to class himself as a human being, not only as a Negro, MRS. T. J. B. Editor Chicago Defender: Please give me space to bring to the minds of your Negro readers that they do not pull a another down, that they would rather support an enterprise that is fostered by white people than one that is promoted by black people. This is shown more plainly in the insurance field than any other. The first question asked by the majority of Colored people who are approachable in insurance is, "If the company white? I don't believe in Colored insurance companies. I belong to the Mississippi political party. This company is white. They have been taking our money for years without giving one Colored boy or girl a job. While there are many Colored companies, one- tenth of the trade among the dark race this company has, they are giving hundreds of men and women employment every day. This matter when we are tempted to take out a policy with some white company. Especially is this true of those people who are ways talking of hard times and the When the members of the dark race realize that when they buy from another business and their posteriority, then we will be a people. There will be no longer need for us to be as a person to be able to do as much as the other fellow is he the other fellow's equal. There are no inferior or superior because of race. Editor Chicago Defender: Seeing in your paper of Nov. 16 the scandalizing and alarming news of the government and I, bitterly opposing such publication, and turning these publications over to the president for proper consideration and Editor Chicago Defender: I want to express personally my appreciation for the great contributions I make to the Greater Bethel Sunday forum some time ago.

What a great and good world this would be for men lived up of truth Editor Chicago Defender: Speaking of conditions in Haiti, Representative Hudson Liddell has said it was "fortunate" no American marines had been killed, as he would not give the life of a marine for the whole country of Haiti. In other words, the life of a white American in Haiti is the face of a population, whose color is in contrast to the pale faces of the southern crackers. The unfortunate ignorant or unaccented resort the presence of the uncured white southerners. The eyes of the civilized world are focused on the uncured kind of justice "Ucane Sham" will hand out to these unfortunate people.

We want forbidden sweetes because we think that in securing them we are "putting one over." It is getting something for nothing. Of course, we are not thinking of the penalty, because we do not intend to get caught. We are too clever for them. Perhaps the main reason why we want forbidden sweetes is that we really want them.

Whenever the amiable young American officers, of whom I had met scores, had had a chance to encounter occasional or having a drink in his house, amenable—they would almost invariably begin cursing the native and his country. They consider the Nexto American; they consider the Haitian; they dislike him actively, and they dislike his country. The professor said lots more, but I don't know. It any wonder that the Haitians, tired of being humiliated, rose in revolt against their white." EDWARD BEAN. 217 Madison Ave, New York. A MESS OF POTTAGE? Editor Chicago Defender: Are you fully conversant with all the facts pertaining to the proposed change of the city's name? I refer to the fact that it is being subsidized by the University of Chicago in their effort to solve their Neo-Mem at the Frank K. Billings hospital. We know how you feel about segregation, and a great many men, because of this, would like to see you go to the hospital on Friday and keep informed along this line. Also we would appreciate some article about this topic, either an editorial or news item. A great many men think that it will be a great thing, and a number are especially interested in the speciality of some of the graduates of K. U. The majority of people are afraid to give an opinion either way for fear that it will hurt some one's feelings. Provident hospital needed money, and it seems that the trustees found that they could get money if they were in play so far as the Colored students are concerned. Again the Colored student must do his clinical work in the hospital, and he must keep him in school until he decides to go to the Colored department of the U. of C. and do his clinical work. He must also clear the cleaning house for all Colored students who attend Northwestern, Illinois, Loyola, Chicago medical or what not. The scientific training will be very good, but are we sacrificing too much for this mess of pottage? Some views on such a weighty problem will be appreciated. Did Robert D. Thomas propose some years ago, made them by the University of Pennsylvania? THOMAS ROCHVAN FROM "SHUT-INS" Editor Chicago Defender: Permit us to congratulate and compliment you upon the Defender platform for its outstanding right note, and in so doing the people all over the world should fall in line. Though we are inmates of this institution, we are also through the medium of your paper you have the grit to wage a fight for something that is of great benefit to our Race.

A REAL CHRISTIAN Editor Chicago Defender: In commenting upon the action of the white Detroit who resigned because two Race members were denied membership in his church. I want to say that according to the old adage, he has refused to live in Rome and do as the Romans did in the past. He is a council of the ungodly and has provoked himself a true exponent of Christ and his teachings. He is a man who beaten anyone not of the same race is to deny one of the most obvious teachings of Jesus. And this is one of the most ignoble and heretical forms of basphemy concocted.

Richard Franklin Selling 107 Papers Dear Bud: I was very glad to see my letter in the paper and I want to thank you. I sent you a letter from Tennessee, Mississippi, corolla and Illinois as the result of being a Billiken. It keeps me busy and helps me to send you a piece about "Lend a Helping Hand." I do hope you will print it. If you think it is going to be useful, send it to Johnson City, about two and a half miles from Chattanooga. Please tell the kids the story.

AND WHEN THE CONFERENCE WAS OVER THE PRESIDENT WOULD TENDERLY CARRY THE SLEEPING CHILD The Birth of Christ On Dec. 25 we celebrate Christmas. History takes us back to that morn when Christ was rocked in a cradle which in reality was only a crib in one of Eoshehem's stables. The cattle were loving about Him, the horses neighing all around. He came in the greatest humility as God's first great Christmas gift. Today we exemplify that spirit which God taught and give Christmas presents, which are only tokens of love and appreciation. To give expensive gifts loses the real Christmas spirit. Our celebrations should not be luxurious and revelous, but simple and meaningful, as was the spirit of the lowly Nazarens. The star that shone in the sky to guide the wise men from afar is our star of hope portraying friendship and love. May we all catch the gleam of its rays and try in the best way possible to celebrate the birth of Christ: not solemnly, but in the light of the glad tidings of the first bright Christmas morn. New York Children Stage Xmas Party New York Children Stage Xmas Party New York, Dec. 20. (Special) Members of the New York Bank Billiken branch club had a merry time here today at the Christmas party staged at the Utopia house, 170 W. 130th St. It was certainly a lovely affair, all the children receiving dainty little presents, ice cream and cake. The party consisted of a play directed by Mrs. Mayne Brooks Riley, Miss Helen Vogelsang had charge of the minuet, while Mrs. Bortha DesVernay directed the brass. Mr. Bearden, New York correspondent for The Chicago Defender and general sponsor of the branch clubs, is being congratulated upon the successful affair. Kiddies have not forbidden the delightful party given at the Utopia house during the summer, when Bud Billiken paid his last gift. They enjoyed music and were entertained by Louis Armstrong and his Connie's Inn orchestra and a host of Broadway stage celebrations. Louise Marie Creach Is Dear Bud: Will you please excuse me for not writing to any of the Billikens, but have been so busy, I have not been able to answer. And am a real Billikens. I am looking for Santa Claus to visit me at Christmas and hope you have a nice time. Please write me, Bud.—Your Billikens, Marie Creach, 3025 Wash. Chicago, Christmas Snowman If you want something new for your party, make a Christmas tree long white whiskers, and on the floor behind him his pack, which has just slipped off of his back. The snow Santa Claus is exactly like a snowman in the yard, and the guests will greet him with designer layers of cotton to form the legs may be nailed to a block of wool to make a foundation or for a decoration. The layers should be made like snowballs and sewed in their proper places. It is best not to have any for the older one, except a very few for the older one. Christmas Carols After the social or party is over, get the whole body of young people re-coach and shine. Christians who are the sick and shut-ins of your church or community, "Silent Night, Holy Night," are the favorites.

Undoubtedly this cat does not realize that folks give him a wide berth or that he has comparatively few intimate friends. If you desire to play with him, self, just try making it unpleasant for your friends. And then it won't be long before folks will cross the street rather than meet you. You must be friendly in order to have friends. Everyone loves a cell phone, and hesitating feeling toward a bull flick. ```markdown ``` We cannot do better than to endear to be better. There is a place for fun if it does not displace doing our duty. Lose your patience and you lose the respect of those who live with you.

CHRISTMAS Ten days then 'Christmas'. Our hearts will tremble. Grief pains their friend. Making their lives more bright. Give to those who are in need. Thus helping in that one way. Love to be with others kindly and a stepping stone on the heavenly way. Christmas means love, peace, outlining, tender and passionate works. Just one heap, and we have climbed. The ladder that leads to heaven. A warm smile. CHRISTMAS Christmas time will soon be here. That's when Santa comes with reindeer and elf. When snow is thick here and there. The bright light of the early sun ray. I love to see old Santa Claus: He brings toys to all good girls and boys. I hate to have grown so very large. That I can't have toys like other girls and boys. I haven't had toys for nearly three years. Although I am thankful to get what I get other things that I need the most. So good by, and good luck for you. — Kevin Porter, 201 Louis St. Glasgow, Ky.
