DR. WOOD MAY BE FORCED TO RESIGN FOR MAYOR AFFAIR
Charge Doctor Sought to Use Organization to Get Brother a Job
Sensational charges that Dr. Charles R. Wood, prominent Gary doctor, sought to use the Gary Noonday Business club as a means of promoting his private ambitions, were hurled from many quarters today, as a result of the doctor's unwise action in inviting Mayor R. O. Johnson to speak before the club nearly two weeks ago
Johnson's presence at the club was not desired by members of the organization, who resented the fact that the mayor, a week before, threw a petition of 300 colored voters "in the waste basket," according to the mayor's own admission, and refused to accede to their request that he give colored people something more than

COP SENTENCED TO DEATH FOR KILLING A COLORED WOMAN
Punishment Quickly Meted Out To Slayer of Girl in New Orleans
New York—What is said to be the first verdict carrying with it the penalty of death on the gallows, against a white man for killing a Negro, has been returned by a New Orleans jury against Charles Guerand, former emergency policeman who shot and killed Hattie McCray, fourteen-year-old colored girl who resisted his advances.
Chandler C. Luzenberg, Sr., was employed by the New Orleans branch of the N.A.A.C.P., of which Dr. George W. Lucas is president, to assist the district attorney in prosecuting the police-officer, and Dr. Lucas reports:
The New Orleans Times-Picayune, reporting on the outcome of the trial, states that the verdict, brought in after forty-five minutes deliberation, "was received with stunned silence by the crowded courtroom," and later says:
"Veteran jurists and attorneys declared Guerand's case was the first in their memory of New Orleans criminal history where a white man had been sentenced to die for the slaying of a Negro. Several verdicts stipulating guilty without capital punishment have been returned, but never the death penalty, they said."
Witnesses at the trial testified to previous advances made by the police officer against the girl, and also riddled his contention that the girl had attacked him with a bread knife in resisting his advances.
Law Students of H.U. To Hold Moot Courts
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Howard university school of law this year is bringing a number of prominent and successful young Negro lawyers to Washington to act as judges at the moot courts which are to be held from time to time, as part of the law course.
Raymond Pace Alexander, one of the leading attorneys of Philadelphia and president of the National Bar Association, was selected to preside over the first moot court session, held Saturday at 10:45 a.m., at the Law School building. Mr. Alexander is a graduate of the Wharton School of Finance, the University of Pennsylvania, and the Harvard Law school. His reputation as a lawyer is national. He is also active in Republican politics.
Other courts will be held from time time in the future, when other leading attorneys will be brought here to preside. It is thought that the contact thus afforded with the successful practitioners in the law profession will serve as an inspiration to the students.

INDIANA SENATORS ASKED TO REJECT NAME OF PARKER
Gary Branch of NAACP Send Telegrams to Watson and Senator Robinson
Opposition to the confirmation of Judge John J. Parker, who was named by President Hoover to fill a vac-
ancy on the bench of the United States Supreme court, was voiced in Gary today, by members of the Gary Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. In a resolution passed by members of the or-
c. J. E. SHEPHARD
organization at a meeting Sunday, and made public late today, members of the organization assailed the record of Judge Parker and described him as "un-American," urging others to join them in their opposition by sending telegrams to Indiana senators, protesting Parker's confirmation. Telegrams asking that they use their influence to block the confirmation of Judge Parker were sent by the association to Senators James E. Watson and Arthur Robinson.
Judge Parker, at present a sitting judge on the federal bench in North Carolina, was named by President Hoover for a place on the United States Supreme court bench, where matters of vital concern to colored people are frequently heard. According to dispatches received from Washington, the national office of the advancement association at New York is leading the fight against Parker. Walter White acting secretary, of the organization appeared before a sub-committee of the judiciary Saturday, and asked that he be allowed to insert into the record a speech made by Judge Parker when he was a candidate for governor of North Carolina.
It is upon this speech that the present opposition to Parker is based. Parker is alleged to have declared in the speech that the Negro should stay out of politics.
Endorsed by Prexy
Only one colored man has come forward to endorse Parker. He is Dr. James E. Shepperd, president of the North Carolina college for Negroes.
Dr. Shepperd's endorsement of Parker has been bitterly assailed.
New York—Walter White, acting secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People appeared before the sub-committee of the senate committee in the judiciary on Saturday, to voice the association's protest against the elevation to the U. S. Supreme court of Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina.
Reads Statement
Mr. White read a prepared statement, which set forth that Judge Parker, while candidate for governor of North Carolina in 1930, delivered an address in the course of which he characterized the Negro as unfit to participate in political life and said the republican party did not desire the Negro to enter politics.

Riot is Narrowly Averted When Opponent Invades Meeting Held for Rival
BULLETIN
With 300 candidates in the race, the spring primary battle warmed up this week and promised to take on new life during the next three weeks of the campaign.
Among the most outstanding developments of interest t ocolored people were:
1. The involuntary withdrawal of Charles H. Mason, a candidate for the state legislature, as a result of an error in sending his filing papers to Chicago, instead of Indianapolis.
2. The entrance of Joseph H. Rapier, prominent Gary lawyer, into the race for justice of the peace, which is being sought by three other colored candidates.
The story about Mason appears on page one, column six, of today's American, while that of Rapier can be found on page two, column one.
By E.A.K.L. MORRIS
The political battle for town hip assessor took on new intensity in a whirlwind meeting, Monday night, at the South Side Republican voters headquarters, 1623 Washington street, held in the interest of Major John McFadden, candidate for assessor. The meeting was conducted by the Citizens Republican club. Mrs. Marie Jones presided as chairman. The major made a rather impressive speech in his own behalf and simplified the intricacies of assessments on property values, and how they affect the small property owner.
Bill Bailey, opponent of McFadden, who is as fiery as the hair on his head, caused quite a sensation when he invaded the political camp of the major, and challenged him to defend himself verbally before the South Side voters, declaring that this is the first time in any political campaign that McFadden ever attended a meeting on the south side.
Mrs. Jones, the chairman, refused to allow Bailey to speak for fear it would incite a riot. She adjourned the meeting.
Bailey becoming irate, went into the streets, scrambled atop an automobile, and conducted an open-air meeting.
Police were called to prevent any possible demonstration that would lead to physical violence.
Politics is in the air in Gary, about as obviously as the unmistakable forebodings of an electric rainstorm, on a sultry August afternoon, and true to predictions, never before has the picture taken a more muddled and confused character, although the reasons for this melange are very plain.

MASON FORCED TO GIVE UP CANDIDACY
Colored Candidate for the State Legislature Makes Error In Filing Papers
Through an error in sending his filing papers to Chicago instead of the secretary of state's office in I. dianapolis, Charles H. Mason, one of the two colored candidates for the state legislature, was automatically dropped from the losing primary battle this week, following his discovery of the error late Friday night.
Mason learned Friday night that he had sent his filing papers to the wrong place, when a letter from Chicago was returned to him containing the writ. Mason thought that he had sent the filing paper to Indianapolis
Discovers Error Too Late Upon discovering it's error, Mason found that it would be too late to send his filing papers to the secretary of state's office at Indianapolis, and announced that he would withdraw from the race. Mason first filed at Crown Point on March 21, thus completing the first step necessary to qualify himself for entering the race. The state law, however, requires a candidate to also send his filing papers to the secretary of state's office at Indianapolis.
In making out an envelope to do this, Mason inadvertently addressed the envelope to Chicago. Little did he realize his mistake until last Friday night—too late to cover up the error.

KILLER DECLARES HE SHOT HAYNES TO PROTECT SELF
Preliminary Hearing Is Set For Monday; Case May Rival Snyder-Gray Affair
Put under a gruelling cross examination by police, James Johnson, confessed slayer of Morris Haynes, today denied that he plotted and conspired with Mrs. Haynes to get her husband out of the way, so that they might carry on their illicit love affair. Johnson claims that he shot Haynes in self-defense. He told police that he met Haynes on the street, saw him put his hands in his pockets as if to each for a gun, when he fired the fatal shots which sent Haynes to his death, last Sunday night.
Haynes' body was found in a vacant lot near Twenty-second and Adams street. He had been shot five times, and stabbed once in the back, according to police, who were notified of the finding of his body by Atlas Ray, of Twenty-third and Adams.
Bolden Makes Arrest
Following the discovery of the body, relatives of the dead man employed John Bolden, former policeman, now a private detective, to find the murderer.
With characteristic alertness, Bolden soon discovered enough evidence pointing to Johnson as the slayer. Bolden said he was told by Haynes' mother that Johnson and Mrs Haynes once were sweethearts and that they had lived together as man and wife for several years, when a quarrel developed and the pair separated.
Then, the woman met Haynes, a mill worker, and married him.
Bolden also learned that after her marriage to Haynes, Johnson begged the woman to leave her husband and come back and live with him, declaring that he would "kill Haynes and get him out of their way."
With this information, Bolden aided by Detectives Fields and Smith, went to Johnson's home at 2101 Adams street. When confronted by the law, Johnson broke down and confessed. Makes Signed Statement
He declared that he met Haynes near the corner of Twenty-second and Adams about 9:30 Sunday night, when he saw Haynes and killed him.
"I met Haynes near the corner of Twenty-second and Adams," he told police. "When he saw me, he reached his hands in his pockets and at the same time I reached to my pockets and pulling the Colt 32-calibre automatic, I began shooting at Morris Haynes."
Johnson also related how he went up an alley to his home, changed his clothes and went calmly to work as though nothing unusual had happened and how he returned home the next day to be accused of the crime and placed under arrest. According to police, Mrs. Haynes is the mother of a four-year-old boy, whom Johnson declares is an offspring of their love affair. Mrs. Haynes denies this. Preliminary hearing for the pair will be held Monday in City court. They will probably be bound over to the Lake County Criminal court.

RAPIER ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY: TO RUN ON PAST RECORDS
Well Known Gary Lawyer Enters Race for Justice of the Peace; Asks Support
Joseph H. Rapier, pioneer resident and lawyer of Gary, today formally announced that he will seek the republican nomination for the office of justice of the peace.
Mr. Rapier has lived in Gary since 1912, and was among the first to set up a law practice here eighteen years ago. His many friends boast that he has always conducted his business on a plane of fairness, honesty and loyalty, which has brought him great respect and recognition from all groups.
Howard Graduate
"The judge," as he is generally called, was born in Florence, Ala., and received his early training in the public schools of that city. Later in Washington, D. C., he completed his college education at Howard university and entered the Howard law school, where he received his degree. A few months following his graduation, he was appointed to a responsible position in the departmental service, which position he held for 5 years, resigning to come to Gary for the practice of his profession. He was admitted to the bar in the same year.
Mr. Rapier is identified with many civic and fraternal organizations of the city and state. He is grand attorney of the Knights of Pythias of Indiana; a member of the Gary Bar association, and the Lake County Bar association; a past master of Pythagoras unit No. 9, of the Masonic order, and a member of the Gary Law forum.
In addition to his wide and successful law practice, Mr. Rapier edits the Commonwealth, a republican newspaper and one of the most influential weeklies in the state. It is the only "legal" newspaper of its kind in Lake county.
Mr. Rapier is not an office seeker. During his many years of residence here, he has only once before, at that in the early days, sought a public office. Decision to enter the race was reached only after republican leaders of Gary strenuously urged his candidacy and volunteered their endorsement and ardent support, believing he is well fitted for the post he seeks.
Promises Fair Deal
Should he win nomination and election, Mr. Rapier assures the public that, as characteristic in all his dealings, he will maintain in his court, a code of "justice to all."
Mr. Rapier, who has ever given his aid and support in all measures for the advancement and progress of his race and fellow citizens, now places before the voters his enviable record of ability, experience, honesty and efficiency, and asks that he be given the office of justice of the peace, in order that he might serve them further and in a greater capacity.

Indiana Senators
Asked To Reject
Name of Parker
(Continued from page 1)
A. A. C. P. brief read by Mr. White. Judge Parker also clearly indicated that measures to disfranchise the Negro embodied in the North Carolina state constitution, had his approval. Judge Parker's utterances of 1920 were characterized by the N.A.A.C.P. as "shameless flouting" of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Federal Constitution. The statement continues:
"If Judge Parker, for political advantage, can flout two amendments to the Federal Constitution to pander to base race prejudice, we respectfully submit that he is not of the calibre which loyal, intelligent Americans have the right to expect of justices of the nation's highest Court.
"Attached is a memorandum of some of the important cases involving the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments so far as the citizenship rights of Negroes are concerned, which have been presented to the U. S. Supreme court within the past fifteen years.
"With the economic, educational political and other progress which the Negro is making, and with the growing consciousness on the part of intelligent Americans as to the importance of the settlement of the race problem upon a basis of even-handed justice, it seems probable that even more cases of similar nature and equal importance will be presented to the Supreme Court for decision in the near future.
Asks His Rejection
"Entertaining such views as he expressed in 1920 when he sought election to the governorship of North Carolina, we are strongly convinced that it would be improper to place such a man as Judge Parker upon the bench of the U. S. Supreme court."
Upon request of Senator Borah, a member of the sub-committee, Mr. White read for the record the names of officers and members of the board of directors of the N.A.A.C.P. Questioned by Senator Overman, of North Carolina, concerning the disfranchisement of Negroes in the south, Mr. White offered to procure for the record of this hearing, instances of such disfranchisement in Senator Overman's own state of North Carolina. This offer Senator Overman declined to avail himself of. On his return to New York, Mr. White said of the hearing:
"The protest on behalf of Negroes against the confirmation of Judge Parker, registered in Washington. It helped to srystalize the opposition to Judge Parker in the senate. Moreover, the fact that an utterance made ten years ago was recalled and used by the N.A.A.C.P. emphasized its long memory; and will make other southerners with political aspirations, more guarded in their utterances in future, than was Judge Parker in the past.
RAPS Dr. Shappard bf c&l 8pt "It is to be regretted that a North Carolina Negro educator saw fit to write a fulsome letter of praise of Judge Parker in the face of Parker's derogatory and insulting statement concerning colored people."

JOHN W. SCOTT IN RACE FOR JUDGE OF ROOM 4, GARY
Former Member of Legislature Served in War; Author of Many Measures
As a man of many years' experience in the practice of the law, John W. Scott, prominent Gary Attorney and joint representative of Lake and Porter counties, has announced his candidacy for Judge of Lake county Superior Court, Room No. 4 in Gary. With his long period of service as a practicing lawyer and public official, Mr. Scott is well qualified for the office of judge of the superior court, and his friends are rallying enthusiastically to his support.
Mr. Scott is keenly interested in and has thorough knowledge of governmental affairs due to his work in the county and in the state. In his first office in Gary, as deputy prosecutor, he attracted considerable commendation because of his ability before the bar, both in the preparation of his cases and in their presentation.
He held this office until the outbreak of the world war, when he resigned to become one of Gary's first volunteers for military service. He entered the service as a private, was sent to France with the 28th Infantry of the famous First Division, but within a short time his ability and courage, won him promotion, and he closed his service in command of a company.
He was severely wounded in action near Cantigny, France and after his discharged from the hospital he was returned to the battle front, at which time he was gassed and received other injuries. Following the Armistice, he was sent into Germany with the Army of Occupation and he commanded the farthest advanced outpost in occupied German territory. In all, he served 22 months in France and Germany, and was cited for "gallantry in action and especially meritorious services." His war service resulted in permanent disability.
Upon his return from France, Mr. Scott re-established himself in the practice of law, and in addition, was given the responsibility of the office of City Comptroller of the city of Gary, filling such position during the years of 1921 and 1922 efficiently and faithfully. Here he made many friends who are now staunchly supporting him in the race for the judgeship.
In 1926 he received his first elective office at the hands of voters of Lake and Porter counties, being named joint representative. Here he served efficiently and when announced his candidacy for a second term, in 1928 he was unopposed for the Republican nomination, easily defeating his Democratic opponent in the general election.
It was as a member of the legislature that Mr. Scott greatly enhanced his reputation as a friend of the people and as a booster for progress and betterment.
Wrote Burns Bill
As the author of the Burns Ditch bill and as its sponsor in the House of Representatives, he successfully fought for the re-assessment of the land affected. This victory saved much property from being sold for assessments and prevented considerable distress among the smaller owners. He always supported legislation for the benefit of the farmer.
In 1927 he led the fight in the legislature against the repeal of the absentee voters' law, feeling that such action would deprive many persons—railroad men, teachers, students, ex-service men in hospitals and aged people—of their right to vote.
Throughout his service in the legislature, he showed himself a friend of education, aiding many bills which favored the schools of the state, especially Indiana and Purdue universities. In this effort he was spurred on by his own experiences in obtaining an education, having worked his way through college in the face of many obstacles. He was also a leader in the fight in favor of the Teacher's Tenure Law. In his legislative work, Mr. Scott
Served in War
J. O.
has steadfastly fought for better care and education for the orphans of deceased ex-service men. It was mainly through the efforts of Mr. Scott that the 1920 session of the Legislature made the largest appropriation in its history for the Knightstown Soldiers and Sailors Orphans' Home. He favored measures introduced by the Izaak Walton League and others for the preservation of the state's wild life. In the 1929 session, he sponsored the Chicago World's Fair Commission Resolution, believing it of benefit to the state to have an active part in the World's Fair of 1933. In the legislature, Mr. Scott has steadfastly opposed all measures that discriminated against race and religion.
As this is the first opportunity the voters have to select a judge of Room No. 4, Lake Superior court, Mr. Scott respectfully solicits the vote and support of all Lake county voters in the Republican primaries, May 6.
Give Up Candidacy Mason Forced To
(Continued from page 1)
other colored candidate running for one of the five places to be filled this year by the voters of Lake county. The sole candidate is William Mayfield, a lawyer, with offices at 1901 Broadway, whose candidacy, however, has not been regarded as seriously as Mason's.
But with Mason out, it was believed that Mayfield may prove to be a formidable contender for the nomination.
Failure of Mason to qualify and thereby leaving Mayfield alone so far as colored candidates are concerned has led many people to believe that a united vote may give Mayfield the nomination.
To elect a colored man to the legislature, however, more than the solid Negro vote is necessary, according to aute political observers. They base their statement upon efforts in the past to elect colored men to the legislature.
Two years ago, William W. Cooke came near of being one of the five candidates to be nominated for the legislature. Cooke carried a majority of the colored vote and a considerable number of white votes, giving him a total of 6,180 votes. Edward McKinley Bacoyn, who also can that year, received only 2880 votes, according to the back files of The Gary American.

SHERIFF J. B. KYLE SEEKS RE-ELECTION UPON PAST RECORD
Must Run Again In Order to Get Four Year Opportunity to Serve in Office
Sheriff Joseph B. Kyle today made formal announcement of his candidacy for the Republican nomination for sheriff in the primaries May 6.
Mr. Kyle took office only a year ago last January but, as the sheriff is elected every two years, he must run again in the coming primary in order to secure the usual four years given the county officials and his many friends among our readers feel he deserves the renomination without opposition because of his stalwart support and keen regard for our people and their interests proved by his employment and his consideration both before and after election.
Makes Good Record
In the fifteen months Mr. Kyle has been in office he has made a record which has earned him favorable comment from officials and leaders everywhere, for he established the first county bureau of criminal investigation, created the much-need county highway patrol, cleaned up the bad conditions at the county jail, cleared up numerous robberies and hi-jacking operations in the southern part of the county and put the sheriff's office on a modern, businesslike basis.
Mr. Kyle's long experience as a republican leader gave him a wholehearted and sincere interest in our group and he has proved his loyalty and friendship in championing our causes and urging and making appointments of our people and our interests. Mr. Kyle understands the position of the worker because he was born in the industrial district of Pennsylvania, went to Valpariso university, took a job on the E. J. & E. railroad here in the early days of Gary, worked in the Inland Steel plant and the Graselli Chemical plant.
Joining the Smith-Bader-Davidson banking interests in Whiting he gained business and organization experience and became vice-president of the Mid-City group here, resigning to enter the sheriff's race two years ago. As he advanced in business, he was making political progress for Mr. Kyle started as a precinct committeeembe became a city secretary, then city chairman and was finally promoted to county secretary and county chairman due to his organization ability and successful leadership, his interest in our own people playing a good part in his progress. The job of sheriff of Lake count:
B. H.
is admittedly the hardest of any county in Indiana because Lake county has many and scattered courts, it is an unusually large county in square miles, it has a complex population with variety of interests and it is so close to Chicago's gangland.
Something of the size of the sheriff's job is revealed in the statistics showing that 22,418 papers were served last year and 849 prisoners were taken to state institutions the total number of miles traveled being 131,573. Fees paid to the county through the sheriff's office were approximately $42,300 last year and if the fees paid directly to the county clerk, on which the sheriff draws no fee whatsoever, are added to this, the sheriff's office paid the county nearly $100,000 last year modifying this office a big dividend.

idacy For Sheriff
-payer for the public.
Mr. Kyle has proved himself highly efficient and has employed our people to help him make this fine record. He believes we give good public service and deserve adequate representation and has done more than his part in advancing our banner. For that reason he has thousands of supporters among us who believe he should have his second term and are going to do their part to help him.
Knoxville, Penn., Journal writes:
"The spelling of the word Negro in the way that by all the simple rules of our language it should be spelled, seems the least of all the expressions of friendship that we are glad to make."

Business men decry tardiness in those whom they employ, for that means not simply the waste of time that should be spent in work, but the failure to be present when Opportunity, coming without warning, knocks peremptorily and, being unanswered summarily departs. Returning belated, one may listen eagerly for a repetition of that summons to rise and confront Destiny face to face, but it does not come. The great chance appeared unheralded and found us wanting and went away, leaving no address with which we may communicate.
For our chances do not come with brass-band music and pennons waving. They stealthily approach; they seldom advertise. They come, like successful burglars, when we expect them least. "If only we had known!" we cry with vain regret. But they promptly went where there were others waiting for them, with trimmed lamps. These others seized what might have been our own, and all our boast of what we might have done had our "luck" been different is unavailing.
What is luck? Most of the time it means to be in the right place at the right moment. The one who is there is the winner over one who is elsewhere. And he who is there must be present not simply in the physical sense; he must attend with all his faculties. As Shakespeare reminds us, it is of no use to have our eyes open if "their sense is shut." A sentinel may be at his post, but he is futile if he sleeps.
Thus to recognize and to improve the opportunity one must be broad awake to it with the keen edge of the senses whetted. The worker who brings only part of his mind to his task is not worth the whole of the pay he draws. He will miss chances not merely for himself—those that quickly seized may promote his own fortunes—but for the concern that when it secured his services supposed that it was getting every bit of the man he is. He must not expect a worker's pay unless he serves with all his senses aware.

"Bills and paste" have given way to newspapers and magazines and those "who advertise" are not only wise but altruistic and philanthropic, for by helping themselves they are helping others.

Many folks, particularly young people of reserved natures, worry because they are not "popular." They envy folks who always have admirers and friends. Many people of superior intellect look down on popularity. They feel it shows a too-easy going nature. They hold that if a person is to live sincerely and do his duty, he must often antagonize others, and make himself exceedingly unpopular. Popularity comes in different ways. In the old days of free liquor a lot of people acquired popularity by the freedom with which they "set 'em up." This was the basis on which many politicians got their start. They were always ready to line up their friends in front of the brass rail and have several rounds "on me." Many people win popularity by free spending, by living extravagantly and scattering cash in all directions
On the other hand many people acquire popularity by devoting themselves to some public cause. College boys who carry on student activities, usually acquire popularity. They are entitled to it because they have to devote much time to maintaining the reputation of their institution.
Similarly in community life. Many people acquire popularity just by giving a great deal of effort to public activities, often more than superior persons who criticise them are willing to devote to such causes. Many people acquire popularity by the friendly interest they show everybody, by a winsome smile and cordial manner.
People who live self-absorbed lives are not popular and do not deserve to be. Any person can acquire a certain measure of popularity by manifesting interest and doing helpful things for others and performing service for the community.

In a recent editorial, The Informer discussed the report of the senatorial (Brookhart) investigating committee, which exposed certain practices among the Republican party leaders in the South, Texas included, which tended to show that some of the Republican party leaders are retarding the growth and development of the party in several of the states. Now, the chairman of the Republican national executive committee, who was elevated to his present post at the suggestion of President Herbert C. Hoover, according to newspaper reports at the time of his promotion, has been accused of committing certain indiscreet and unethical acts, and sentiment seems to be gathering volume and momentum throughout the country that another man should head the party's national machinery.
It is said that the White House does not look with much favor upon Mr. Huston being retained in his present party post, due to his lobby activities and other ramifications.
Apparently, some of the Republican leaders have become somewhat uneasy, particularly those who will seek offices in the general election next November, and there is an undercurrent for a new chairman of the national executive committee.
While The Informer was one of the first papers in the country to boost the present executive of the republic for the highest elective office within the gift of the American electorate, it seems to us that Mr. Hoover is bungling up matters considerably, and that many of his backers and supporters will find it increasingly difficult to endorse some of the presidential moves and gestures.
Untrained in the school of practical politics, some of the president's political strokes seem to be going awry and this selection of the Tennessee lobbyist to direct national partisan, affairs does not appear as a master move, nor a wise choice.
Instead of proving an asset to the Republican party, it seems that the president's man is about to become a liability and at a time when the party can ill afford to lose any of the ground it gained in 1928.
Several United States senators and congressmen will be nominated during the spring and summer and will be elected at the general election Tuesday, November 4, 1930; and these Republican candidates, whether seeking reelection or aspiring for office their first time, do not care to be burdened with the job of trying to explain the activities and defend the actions of this party chieftain.
Instead of endeavoring to reward so many of his personal friends, it strikes The Informer that President Hoover should ascertain the fitness and character of these men before elevating them to such lofty, important and honorable posts. Any attempt to defend the action of the chairman of the Republican national executive committee by making the counter-charges that the head of the Democratic national party organization has been guilty of certain questionable acts, or of making contributions to this or that cause, does not improve the status of the "grand old party;" for two wrongs never did make a right and never will. Each party must face the acid test upon its own record and the record of its titular leaders and party leaders, whether local, district, state or national, will do well to bear this fact in mind as they approach the spring and summer primaries and the autumn election.
Our philosophy is that the world ends every night and starts out new again every morning.

NEGRO VOTE FIGHT PENDING IN U. S. SUPREME COURT
Decision of Arkansas Court Will Bring Case to Attention of Higher Tribunal
New York.—With the recent decision by the Arkansas Supreme court, upholding state democratic party officers in their barring of Negroes from primary elections, a second case has reached the stage where appeal to the United States Supreme court is indiciated, the first such case now under appeal being Wes v. Bliley, arising in Virginia.
The national legal committee, of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, under the chairmanship of Arthur B. Spingarn, is studying the decision of the Arkansas States Supreme court. To the conduct of this case the National Office and the Little Rock branch have contributed $180. Of the decision in Arkansas (Robinson v. Holman), one of the attorneys, John A. Hibbler, writes to the N.A.A.C.P.;
To Go to High Court
"It is easy to descrern from the opinion of the court that they did not pass upon the real question before them. Hence, it must be settled once for all by the proper tribunal, Supreme Court of the United States.
The N.A.A.C.P. reports that status of the four cases, involving the right of state democratic party officers to bar Negroes from primaries when states are forbidden to do so by law, is as follows:
Arkansas: Adverse decision by State Supreme court, indicating appeal to U. S. Supreme court.
Virginia: Appeal by Virginia authorities to U. S. Supreme court now under way in West v. Bliley, against decision by Federal court holding barring of Negroes unconstitutional. Texas: Appeal prepared by N.A.A. C.P. attorneys to U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Fort Worth, Texas, the case being assigned for hearing at session after the first Monday in November, 1930. Florida: Case argued before Supreme court of Florida in October, 1929, decision not yet rendered. The N.A.A.C.P. has received clipping of an editorial from the Cleveland News, commenting upon the Arkansas decision, which says in part:
"Refusing to do anything for colored citizens denied the right to vote in Democratic primaries, the Arkansas court evidently excuses its defiance of the constitution on the pretext that the state has nothing to do with the primary elections and that the Democratic can run their own primaries as they please.. Arkansas primaries must be peculiar indeed if they are conducted without any public expense and without any connection with state law as to dates, methods

MORE PUBLICATIONS AMERICA NOT WHITE USE CAPITAL 'N' BUT NEGROID SAYS IN WORD NEGRO CELEBRATED SAGE
Publishing Firms Join Papers In Decision to Adopt Newer Practice New York.—The number of editors and publishers who have agreed to use the capital N when they print the word Negro is being added to and the replies still coming in to the letters of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People indicate that this practice will soon be almost universal.
Roscoc Conkling Bruce informs the N.A.A.C.P. that among the latest to adopt this style are the publishers, Ginn and company; D. C. Heata and company; and the United States Daily published in Washington.
Doubleday, Doran and company, also inform the N.A.A.C.P. of their intention to capitalize the word Negro when used as a racial designation.
Among the latest additions to the N.A.A.C.P. list are the following:
Now use capital N: Fall River, Mass., Herald News; The American City; Vanity Fair (has done so for six years); Utica, N. Y., Observer Despatch.
Will use capital N: Tacoma, Wash. Times; Publishers Weekly, New York; San Francisco News; Woman's Home Companion; Youngstown, Ohio, Vindicator.
Georgia Editor Tells All
One Georgia editor, who does not believe in capitalizing N, in printing the word Negro, points out the danger in this usage, in that it would give the Negro an idea he was as good as the white man. This Georgia editor, of the Eatonton, Go., Messenger, in a metronicle having a population of 2,519, points out that "a negro society for the advancement of the negro race" has recently published a list of editors who use the capital N.
The use of the capital letter, he points out "has come to be regarded in some quarters as an admission that the inferiority of the negro to the white man has been wiped out, in part at least, and in that light the practice is a very bad one....The inferiority of the negro to the white man is inherent." As to the use of the capital N, this Georgia editor says, "such an act is misunderstood by the negroes and perhaps by many whites and it creates antagonism between the races because it gives the negro the impression that he is as good as the white man."
AMERICA NOT WHITE BUT NEGROID SAYS CELEBRATED SAGE
White Race Cannot Escape Influence of Colored People, Says Dr. Carl Jung
New York.—America is not a white nation but "partly colored," asserts Dr. Carl Jung, celebrated Swiss psychologist writing in the Forum for April.

Jung. His answer in this Forum expressed the belief that the Negro is influencing not only the white man's art but his behavior."
Traces Negro Music
Among the effects of the Negro upon American behavior, Dr. Jung lists "boundless, noisy sociality" the "loose-jointed walk, the Negroid dance and music." Of American music he says it is "most obviously pervaded by the African rhythm and the African melody."
Apart from his superficial behavior, declares Dr. Jung, and within him, the American tends to resemble the Redman, the American Indian. This is indicated not only in the tendency of Americans to resemble the Indian in their physical appearance but in their unconscious adoption of Indian ways, such as the cruel and arduous nature of their sports, the barbarous rites of secret societies like the Ku Klux Klan, the tower-like outlines of American buildings which resemble the southwestern Indian pueblo, etc.
The editor of the Forum in a foreword, explains that the article arose out of a meeting between himself, a South African white man, and James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the N. A.A.C.P., who maintained "that the Negro has contributed more than is obvious on the surface to American musical composition. After that meeting I wrote to Zurich and put the

The greatest problem the township assessor must meet is that of equitable valuation. A taxpayer rarely complains when he is paying tax on an equitable valuation of all property in his community—it is when he pays more tax in proportion than does his neighbor on a like amount of property, that he objects. Our law requires that all property must be assessed at its "true cash value." What is the true cash value of the property in your township, and how can it be arrived at? Answer correctly and you have done more than well.
There are 69,475 lots assessed at $39,894,329, an average of $575-plus per lot, and are divided as follows:
Central District (South of Wabash to Calumet River East and West of Broadway to Grant St.) Except Gary Land Co. Subs ......

A structure to endure must be built from the fundation to the roof—it cannot be built from the top down. So, if we are to reach a real solution of the taxation problem, we must begin with the township assessor's office, which is the foundation upon which all taxation depends.

In making these valuations we believe the four points which we will now mention are the fundamentals in making a correct assessment.
1st. By an actual eye to eye acquaintance with the property, making an honest effort to balance all its advantages with its drawbacks—to eliminate sentimental values—to fix a true cash value. No "sight unseen" valuation in our office.
2nd. By keeping in touch with real estate sales, through the newspapers, through individuals, and through the real estate transfers, of which we have a daily copy.
3rd. Through tax sales. If a considerable number of lots owned by different taxpayers in any one locality, go to sale for taxes, we are half persuaded that the township assessor has made a mistake in estimating the true cash value and begin to inquire into the cause of these sales at once, and if we find that we are in error we ask immediately to have that error corrected under Section No. 152—and the State Board of Tax Commissioners have never referred to grant relief.
4th. By keeping always in mind that we are human, and that "To err is human." By listening carefully to, and weighing each taxpayer's complain or suggestion. He may be right—he may have the key to the situation—he must at least be convinced that we are right, if such be the case. In short, to be always open minded and on the job, on the lookout at all times for any information that will help us to give his honor—"The Taxpayer"—a square deal.

"A-rolling" here, there and elsewhere, carrying added education and inspiration to some 30,000 farmers annually, the Booker T. Washington motorized school one of the most successful missionaries of improved rural life among southern coloured farmers still continues its rounds.
Booker T. Washington was father of the admirable idea of a traveling school on wheels. More than 20 years ago, his cherished scheme was hatched into reality away down South in the country sections of Alabama. To begin with, a demonstration wagon pulled by a horse and piloted by an agricultural expert toured the state, spreading its gospel of better farming and rural living conditions. Meetings were held in the smaller country communities. Families came from near and far to learn about the messages offered by the touring agricultural missionary.
Demonstrations "how-to-do shows," so to say were features of every meeting. The traveling teacher taught his students how to build poultry houses and other simple farm buildings, how to handle tools, sharpen saws and similar operations. He showed his new friends how to plant, cultivate and harvest their crops and advised them concerning the marketing of those cash crops. He instructed them about the practical methods of live stock farming.
The woman folks were not neglected. They were taught how to cook, can, saw and garden. They were also schooled in the A, B, C's of sanitation, farm conveniences, comforts and labor-saving appliances for use in the home.
Year after year, this wagon school rambled rural highways and byways. It won friends and supporters wherever it journeyed. Eventually, the stern tests of time shunted it into discard. It wore out and went to pieces. Alabama countrymen came to the rescue. They raised funds by popular subscription, purchased and equipped a motor truck to continue the worth while work. Ultimately this traveling school which runs by gasoline power was donated to the U.S. Department of Agriculture to aid Uncle Sam in his practical missionary work among southern farmers.
The new motorized truck carries a complete equipment of farm implements and home conveniences such as the average rural families

according to local interest and demands. Usually a run down and neglected farm is selected as the site of the demonstrations. The entire countryside is invited to gather at that particular farm. Classes are formed, forthwith, for improvement activities. One class, for example, cleans the dooryard, plants flower seed and sets out trees and shrubbery procured from neighboring woodlands. Its charge is to beautify the home surroundings as much as possible.
Another class builds a simple poultry house. Another group is shown how to make durable whitewash and water paint, how to apply these materials and thus improve the appearance of the farm buildings. Others prepare the land and plant a vegetable garden. Small fruit trees and berry bushes are set out.
The rural nurse instructs mothers in how to care for their children, how to maintain the home in sanitary and healthful condition, what foods to prepare and the simple home remedies efficient when any of the family become sick. There are many other classes in canning, candling eggs, terracing fields, weaving, making rugs and fancy baskets, soap making, lawn building and dyeing cloth.
From 50 to 100 or more students attend each school. Subsequently, they return to their homes and apply what they have learned in the improvement of their farms and

homes. It is really wonderful to note the changes which occur in one of these Alabama communities after several visits of the efficient school on wheels. Shacks, squalor and shiftlessness disappear as though by magic as a result of the teachings of this emissary of better standards of living.
This traveling school has accomplished remarkable results in teaching the farmers to raise cotton successfully despite the regular ravages of the boll weevil, a destructive pest that collects more than $200,-000,000 in tribute annually from American cotton growers.
For many years now, Uncle Sam has worked in active cooperation with Tuskegee Institute, the notable institution established by Booker T. Washington. The improvement of rural life for colored farmers has been the laudable ambition of this persistent campaign which has paid golden dividends in outstanding achievements.
Each day after the school is over, all the students both young and old play amusing games under competent direction. Volley ball, tug of war, foot racing, shoe racing and other simple sports. The old folks forget aches and infirmities for the time being and enjoy the contests and sports as thoroughly as do their youthful sons and daughters. Educational motion pictures and phonograph concerts in the evening add enjoyable entertainment to the program.

CHOOL
Farmers to Sharpen Saw — Madison Alabama.
One of the remarkable developments of the school on wheels and its unique training courses has been the establishment of community workshops throughout Alabama. Community groups have been organized in local clubs. Each member pays a small fee usually several dollars into a general fund which is used to buy land, build a small workshop and equip it with a complete outfit of community tools. The members gather at this shop on Saturday afternoons and rainy days and repair farming implements, shoe horses, make simpls tools and perform other necessary work. Each of these shops and its tools is in the charge of a local custodian. All broken tools must be replaced at the user's expense.
Tools can be removed from the community shop only with the custodian's consent. He keeps tab on each and every tool. The members of the club in addition to performing all their personal repair and construction work also do work for neighbors for pay. These clubmen have access to both woodworking and metal-working tools in their community club. Were it not for the cooperative community workshop, these farmers would not be able to afford such hand and power tools. Wherever tested, this community tool owenrship and central workshop scheme has proved practical. It is one of the most popular outgrowths of the Booker T. Washington touring school.

Before Nose Operation
The Illustrated Feature Section artist's conception of a delicate operation in plastic surgery.
Here is a Side View. Note the Clean Cut Profile
SCIENCE has come to theaid of those who wish the kind of faces that Nature forgot to give them. Somehow, most of us would like to have things made over. We don't like our names, or we don't like our hair, our eyes, teeth, noses, lips. We are never quite satisfied with the deal that Nature gives us. And this is natural.
Science now, has come to the aid of those who want to change their faces.
By various methods we can change the type and style and texture of our hair. We can have our teeth changed to suit us. By various aids we can powder and paint to improve upon the skin and its texture, thus it is natural that a successful method has been found to change our faces. Nothing is permanent to-day for the man or woman of yesterday may be found next month looking altogether different.
Plastic surgery is the Cinderella which has waved the wand that banishes senility, brings beauty out of deformity, and satisfaction when we pass the mirrors and the admiring glances of friends and the envy of those less fortunate The miracle of plastic surgery, as a science, is the result of intensive

work practiced in the hospitals of the World War. Brought face to face with the need, surgeons quickly learned just how to change the nose or make it over, shift the mouth, remake an ear, build out a cheek and do a hundred other things that saved wounded men for presentable appearance in later life.
The first attempts made in the hospitals of France have been improved upon. The technique of this art has been perfected, studied and experimented with, until there are more than one hundred qualified plastic surgeons in the United States that can successfully re-make the body, particularly the face.
Since the World War, the entertainers, the show people, have been the greatest supporters of plastic surgery. This is natural. A fresh, unwrinkled, youthful face, with lines of beauty and winsomeness, has a powerful and valuable appeal that is quickly evident at the box-office. The motion picture world was one of the first to patronize in large numbers the plastic surgeon in order that an attractive chin and a winsome mouth might be presented upon the silver screen. A saucy nose with just the right tilt in harmony with other facial lines was discovered to mean an extra row of figures at the left of the decimal point on the contract and the salary check.
Negroes are now welcoming the art of the plastic surgeon. A bit of re-

"She Tilt SYNOPSIS
SYNOPSIS
Rod Herrick, of Golden Arrow, Montana, has come to Chicago to enter the university. It is spring and he intends to earn enough money to enter school by fall. His lawyer friend, Martin Thompson, takes him to a party given by Alderman Durant for his daughter, Lyla. Rod, unused to society's ways, treads on the girl's foot and is insulted for his clumsiness by Reggie, her flance. To avert trouble between the two, she takes Rod into the garden where he tells her of his life in the West. A warm friendship springs up between them.
Later, Lyla, Reggie, Rod, and several others go to the Swamp Hut, a cabaret, where Reggie drinks too much. He strikes Rod who fails to return his blow. Lyla thinks Rod is a coward, but she learns differently when he takes her from Wolf, a notorious gangster who had snatched her from Reggie's arms while they were dancing.
Wolf attacks Rod and is knocked out. Several of Wolf's henchmen also attack the youth but are routed just as police raid the place. Rod is able to get the girl safely out of the place.
The next night, as he leaves her home after having spent the evening with her, he is kidnapped by Wolf and his gang who take him out of the city in their car. They tell him they are going to kill him, but he is saved by federal agents who are laying in wait for bootleggers.
A manager of prizefighters, Kling, who was in the cabaret when Rod fought with the gangsters, offers him a contract to become a boxer, and Rod accepts in order to make enough money to enter school. At the gymnasium Kling orders Kelly, another of his boxers, to put on the gloves with Rod in order to see how skilled his new fighter is. Kelly, afraid that Rod may replace him, tries to harm him when they get into the ring, but Rod knocks him out.
That evening Rod goes to see Lyla. They go for a walk to the beach. He tells her of his love and takes her into his arms. Intoxicated with her nearness and softness he kisses her hungrily, but she averts disaster by begging him not to spoil their friendship.
They leave the beach, and as they reach the sidewalk, she discovered that she hasn't her pocketbook. Rod runs back after it and when he returns he sees her being dragged into a car. A half block away, the machine crashes into the sidewalk and Rod is able to catch it.
He finds Lyla's abductor is Reggie, who has been drinking heavily. However, Reggie's identity is not known to him until after he has beaten him severely. Lyla, for some reason which he does not understand, becomes angry at him and after they take Reggie to a doctor, tells him to go away.
As the days pass, Rod trains faithfully and sees no one except the other fighters in the gym. He does not try to see Lyla. One afternoon his friend, Martin, takes him to a "tea party" at a young society girl's home. There is much gaiety at the party, which Rod soon discovers is caused by free drinking of liquor.
He meets a seductive looking girl named Zeda, who makes him take a drink—the first one in his life. Under the influence of the liquor he kisses Zeda in the hallway of the place and looks up to see Lyla entering. Zeda laughs triumphantly and, pulling Bed into a room, slams the door.
CHAPTER VI
Zeda stood with her back against the door defiantly. She tilted her red lips up to Rod to be kissed. The youth rubbed his hands bewilderedly over his face, then shook his head in an effort to get his senses back. Apparently he did not even see Zeda any longer. His eyes stared past her. as though they were trying to look beyond the door to the hallway where he had seen Lyla. "Kiss me, darling!" Zeda commanded.
"Let me by, please," Rod muttered. "Say—Lyla threw you down once. What do you want her to think—that you're a sap?" "Get out of the way!" Rod ordered her roughly. The girl's eyes blazed. "Make me!" she challenged.
"I will," Rod promised, as he seized her firmly by the shoulders. When he touched her she threw both her arms around his neck and drew her feet up off the floor so that her whole weight depended from Rod's neck. For an instant he tried vainly to disentangle himself from her tentacle-like grip, then picking her up with effortless ease he carried her across the room to a sofa and dumped her unceremoniously onto its soft surface. Without a word he turned and ran back to the door which he threw open and dashed into the hall. Lvla

w not in sight. Rapidly he strode back to the room where the sounds of gaiety and merriment seemed to have increased trebly in the few minutes he had been absent. His eyes darted around, seeking her. "Hey. Roddie, what's the matter with you? You look like something's happened." Martin had come up and was standing beside Rod.
"Have you seen Lyla?"
"Lyla? Why, no. Is she here?"
"She was a few minutes ago. I've got to find her."
"Let's ask our hostess," the lawyer suggested, taking Rod's arm and leading him across the floor. When they reached the girl, Martin asked,
"Say, Tess, have you seen Lyla Durant?"
LYLA LEAVES HURRIEDLY
Tess glanced inquiringly at Rod. Then she said hesitantly, "Why why, yes--she was here for a minute, but—well, she left rather hurriedly."
"What was the matter with her?" Martin inquired.
"Oh, I know!" Rod cried, starting away, "and I've got to go—I've got to find her and explain."
"The steer, its red eyes ro came into the range of its vis
"I thought you were going to meet Kling at four o'clock," Martin reminded him. Rod paused. "I'd forgotten. What time is it now?" "It's exactly three-thirty," Martin informed him, as he consulted his watch. "You'll have to make it snappy." Torn by indecision, Rod stoood perplexed for an instant. His hostess regarded him with sympathetic eyes. "Zeda is bad medicine for little boys," she informed him gently.
"Whatever happened is entirely my fault," Rod defended a little stiffly. "But I've had a very nice time," he concluded less formally. "Thanks a lot." He left them abruptly. "Say! Let me in on this," Martin demanded of Tess. "What happened? Why, when and where?" "Well, you see it was like this," Tess began in a low voice. Then she told Martin of Lyla's arrival in time to see Zeda in Rod's arms. Martin whistled. "That's a tough break for Rod. He's really 'looney' about Lyla."
By catching a motorbus on the nearby boulevard, Rod managed to get down to his manager's office at the appointed time. Kling was sitting at his desk absorbedly poring

over some documents in front of him. When Rod came in he looked up with a smile. "You're on time. Cowboy," he greeted. "Have a sit down while I finish looking over these papers."
Rod sank into a chair. Abstractedly he glanced around the office. The floor was covered with a thick, darktoned rug of heavy yielding material. The desk at which Kling sat was of carved mahogany. and its inkwell and penholder were of some lovely material resembling jade. On the tan, roughly textured walls hung a few tasteful pictures. It was quite unlike what Rod would have thought a prize fight manager might occupy. It was more like the quarters of some wealthy executive.
Then he smiled to himself. He remembered Kling WAS wealthy, and he was an executive. He had learned that, in addition to managing a large number of fighters, his manager also had an interest in one of the largest athletic arenas in the city. So boxing. Rod decided, was not just a game, but a well developed business.
lling wildly, its nostrils dilated ion."
"All right, Cowboy," Kling remarked, as he folded up the papers he had been perusing, and thrust them into his pocket. "We are ready to go. But first I got a surprise for you. A real nice surprise. What do you think?"
"What is it?" asked Rod a trifle incuriously. His mind was on Lyla and the events of the past few hours.
"I got a fight for you! A good one."
Rod's interest quickened. "A fight? Gee, that's great, Mr. Kling. I feel like doing some fighting. The sooner the better.. When does it come off?"
"That's the spirit!" Kling applauded. "I'm glad you want a real fight. I'll tell you. I've got such confidence in your ability that I've done something everybody will call me crazy for. You know that the light heavyweight champ fights here in two weeks? Well, I got you the semi-windup fight on that card!"
ROD'S BIG CHANCE
Rod whistled incredulously. "But, Mr. Kling, that's an important spot. I thought only fighters with national reputation fought the next most important fight on a championship card." "Sure. That's right. But after the fight you're gonna have a na-

tional reputation—that is, if you beat the boy you're going to fight."
"I'll beat him, all right," Rod promised.
"Aren't you even curious to know who he is?" Kling asked narrowly, his keen eyes watching Rod's face.
"I've got two arms, two legs, and whatever else the boy I'm going to fight has got," Rod declared significantly.
"Thataboy!" Kling commended. Well, when I tell you who your opponent is, you are going to be surprised and no fooling!" He lowered his voice confidentially. "It's Mickey Latzo, runner up to the middleweight champ. His manager took this fight because he figured his boy would beat you easy. And boy, if you fool him, you're a sure shot for a fight with the champ of your division within the next two months!" "On, gee, Mr. Kling! Don't you think that fellow's a little too good for me?" Rod wavered.
"What did you just tell me?" Kling demande.
"That still goes!" Rod cried.

Kling's eyes sparkled. "Boy. what publicity we will get. And if you win," he paused dramatically to blow a kiss toward the ceiling, "why, you'll be the most talked of fighter in the world—the whole world, Kid!"
"Whew!" breathed Rod. "You scare me to death!"
"I feel it in my bones you're going to beat him!" Kling assured Rod confidently. "But do not get the idea that it is going to be easy. It's not. Latzo is a tough baby, and no fooling. But I've got a former sparring

partner of his to work with you so you can catch onto his style of scrapping. This Latzo bird hits like dynamite, but I've noticed that you can take 'em." He glanced at his watch. "But now we got to hurry. I didn't tell you yet, but we are on our way now to sign up for the fight. Let's go!"
They had but a few blocks to go, and they went on foot. As they pushed their way through the downtown streets, many persons hailed Kling, and looked at Rod curiously. As they were passing a drug store Kling suddenly clapped his hand to his head and halted. "Golly. I come near forgetting something!" he exclaimed. "Come on inside this drug store, Cowboy. We're going to call up a coupla newspapers so some reporters can be on hand while we sign up."
BIG PUBLICITY
The call did not take long. Rod, standing nearby, heard Kling disguise his voice a trifle while he informed somebody that if they wanted to be in on something good to hustle right away over to the offices of the Chicago Arena where Kling was going to sign up his new fighter, who had never had a fight, with Mickey Latzo, chief challenger of the middleweight champion. He listened a moment. "Well, everybody knows Kling ain't crazy, so maybe you'd better hustle a reporter over to see what it's all about."
Kling was smiling humorously when they came out. "I'll bet there will be newspaper men already there when we get there. Let's walk kinda slow, Cowboy." Accordingly they drawled along, with Kling halting to peer into various store windows. "See, Kid," he cried, at one of the places. "There is a bathrobe of bright red. I'm going to get that for you, and have the picture of a horse—no, a steer—no—let's see—well, we'll figure out something to put on the back of it to carry out the idea that you really are a cowboy."
Rod laughed. "I never had a silk dressing gown in my life, Mr. Kling," he confessed.
"Yes, but when you go to the ring before a fight. everything like that helps," Kling informed him. "Tiger Flowers, the ex-middleweight champion. had a tiger on the back of his robe."
By now they had reached the entrance of the Chicago Arena Building. Kling led Rod up the stairs into a palatial suite of offices. A smartly dressed girl asked them their names, and when Kling told her, she showed them into an inner office where several men had already gathered.
At a big flat-topped desk sat a man with heavy features and iron grey hair. He was the matchmaker for the Arena. On the other side sat a thin, dapper man with highly polished hair, fox-like eyes, and a suave smiling manner. On the hand which he extended with an appearance of cordiality to Kling, there sparkled a large diamond. This was Karnes, Mickey Latzo's manager.
"Why, if it isn't my old friend Kling!" he cried. "Put 'er there."
Kling shook hands gingerly. "How's the boy bandit?" he asked.
"This can't be the boy you're bringing to sign up for fistic combat with my Mickey?" Karnes exclaimed with feigned incredulity, as he stared at Rod. "Why, this frail child appears to be nothing but a boy."
Rod flushed angrily. "Never you mind, Mister Karnes," Kling broke in quickly. "He is just a young child, and he's not very strong---" his voice changed, grew sharper, "but he's got enough stuff to slap your dear little Mickey down!"
"Oh. 'izzat' so?" a new voice demanded.
Kling looked up to face a thickset youth whose broken nose, scarred face, and badly curled ears bespoke the veteran prizefighter.
"Oh. hello, Mickey," Kling greeted him. Then unabashed, he went on, "I was just telling your manager Continued on Page Four
THE DARK KNIGHT by William T. Smith
how my boy was going to put the sign on you. Step over this way and meet him."
Latzo strode across the room swiftly. Rod extended his hand expectantly, but when the other youth was within a foot of him, he saw that Latzo had no intention of shaking hands with him.
ROD AND LATZO SIGN
"We'll do our paw wringing when we meet in the ring," Latzo growled, his dark grey eyes glaring into Rod's. Rod smiled into the glaring eyes. OK," he said quietly. He had not moved a muscle, nor had his face betrayed any sign of trepidation when the other fighter strode up to him. The man behind the desk spoke up suddenly. "Cut the comedy," he ordered. "Kling. you and Karnes come on over here so we can get together on terms, have these punks sign up, and get it over with."
Several newspaper men, who were sprawled around the office, scratched busily at their pads for a minute, then relaxed into slouching attitudes again.
Seeing that his glare had not disconcerted Rod, Latzo turned on his heel and walked over to a window which overlooked the busy street below. Karnes and Kling drew chairs up to the desk. Rod found a seat.
For the next half hour the office was filled with loud talking, wrangling, and even vituperation as Karnes and Kling sought to come to terms.
"I should give you twenty-seven per cent," Karnes shouted, his suavity forgotten, "when this punk kid hasn't even had a fight, so you say."
"What has that got to do with getting a fair cut of the money?" Kling demanded. "If you think you've got such an easy fight with my boy, why don't you be satisfied to take the big end and call it square?"
"Folks aren't coming out to see YOUR boy fight, and you know it!" Karnes insisted vehemently. "They are coming out to see Mickey slap him over, because they know Mickey is going to be the next middleweight champ."
"Oh, yean?" Kling inquired softly "Well, lemme tell you something, Mister Karnes-after this fight there will be a new challenger! See?" "Sez you!" Karnes snorted. "Yup! Sez me." Kling retorted placidly. "But that ain't getting our terms straight. I say that I'm going to have twenty-seven per cent for my boy, and that goes. Not a nickel less!" "And I say that you're not!" Karnes insisted. "You're going to take twenty per cent and like it!" "Well, maybe twenty-five per cent," Kling wavered.
Karnes was quick to follow up this advantage. "I said twenty per cent!"
"You are a bandit," Kling mourned sadly. "But I wouldn't take twenty. I'll take not a penny less than

twenty-two and one half per cent, and if you don't like that, the fight's off."
"Oh, all right," Karnes gave in. "But at that you're getting about twenty per cent more than your fighter's worth. He won't be in the ring but about a half minute before Mickey bounces him out on his bean!"
"We'll see," Kling prophesied. "Now, let's sign the contract."
As Rod and Latzo faced each across the broad desk there was a sudden boom of a flashlight charge. Unnoticed by them, a newspaper photographer had set his camera up. "I didn't want to tell you that I was going to take your pictures, or you might change those fighting expressions on your faces and try to look pretty!" the camera man apologized.
THE BOUT STAGED
Kling rubbed his hands in satisfaction. Karnes also smiled. Both were old campaigners in the fistic game, and each knew the value of publicity. Even while they were arguing over the terms of the contract, each knew that the reporters were listening, and would use some of their statements. Now they exchanged knowing grins. "Well, let's get going," Kling suggested to Rod. "We want to get back over to the gym so you can get a rubdown."
As they left the office, two of the reporters followed them. "We're going over to the gym," one of them said. "You don't mind if we string

How to be Beautiful
By GERALDINE FOX CE? are hundreds of my readers, I am sure, who will be glad to have me make an answer here for Vivian C.
Dear Miss Fox: I am almost twenty pounds over-weight and would do almost anything to get back to the slimness I had a few years ago. I don't want to take medicine or do anything that is dangerous but I shall appreciate very much any help you can possibly give me.
You, of course, realize, Vivian, that there is a lot of difference between plumpness and being "fat," but this difference is usually in numbers of pounds alone, and when you get plump it becomes comparatively easy for you to go on and gain more pounds and grow fat. Therefore, "plumpness" becomes more or less a real danger to a woman who wants to keep looking her very best.
In spite of the fact that the fashion experts tell us that graceful lines will include just a little more plumpness in the next few months, there

relieves stiff lame muscles
Clear off the floor of your bed room, lie flat down on your back and roll over. Roll over again and again, going just as far as you can and then turn back and roll the other way. Do it rather vigorously. You should do this even if you have passed the plump stage because the more vigorously you do it, the more quickly you will roll off pounds.
After you have spent five or ten minutes rolling back and forth not half-heartedly but in real earnest get up and take a hot bath. Have the water just as hot as you can endure it and lie in the bath for several minutes utterly relaxed. Then turn on the cold water, at the same time allowing the hot water to escape.
Well Groomed
You can make this even better if you will go to your hardware store or your ten-cent store and get yourself a shower bath attachment that can be attached over any ordinary bath tu'. Turn the water on at about medium and enjoy a shower as a finishing off to your hot bath.
Continue the water until it is cold and then dry yourself quickly. The cold water gives a firmness to the flesh and the hot water melts away the fat.
I shall be glad indeed to hear from fat folks who want further help.

Get Out in the Open
And there are many who say that Cecil Scott, who norts a mean saxaphone at the Savoy, is one of the best groomed men in New York's deluxe ballroom.
Get out in the open. There is said to be more real value in the spring sun than in that which heats, boils, broils and sizzles us in the summer time.
Best groomed! That means handsome hair. Long, straight, soft as silk—the pride of every man who realizes the importance of a good personal appearance.
So if you can possibly manage it, get out into the country. Use your car, your neighbor's car, the trolley car, a kiddie car, a choo-choo car or any kind of a car—but get out into the country. When you get there, walk along a stream, up over a hill, through a field, along a violet-strewed road, anywhere and everywhere, breathing deeply, basking in the sun, and learning about Mother Nature at first hand.
Wavine Dressing, rubbed briskly into the hair and scalp, brings out all the lustre and beauty of the hair-for its gentle oils nourish the roots and promote natural, healthy growth.
Take the kiddies and get them started on a leaf collection, a butterfly collection, a stone collection, an insect collection, or a flower collection. It will take you out more often if you have something to go for.

This week, a middleaged coquette of Mobile asks a question.
My dear Mrs. Jerome:
I am forty but I am not fat and I have always been considered attractive. I am now divorced and thinking of marrying again. The man is younger than I, but he professes to be madly in love with me. He has a little money, not much, and I have some. We could live well on our combined income. But I could marry more money if I didn't love Henry.
What I most fear is that I will lose my looks in a few years and that then Henry will stray. If I could be sure of his loyalty now I would be more willing to trust him in the future. But he has a young woman in his office and it seems to me, he spends more time than necessary with her. And when I throw this up to him he grows angry and takes up for her. This looks very suspicious to me. She isn't pretty at all, but she must have some very fine qualities.
Do you think I should trust him blindly and go ahead and marry him?
MIDDLEAGED.
No, don't marry him. It isn't Henry you distrust, it is yourself. So no matter what Henry does, you aren't going to be completely reassured. Jealously is nothing but lack of confidence in your own power.
Of course, he takes up for the girl! If you ever want to rouse a man's
down. You are employing very mad tactics.
Never argue with a man about another woman. Be so charming and serene yourself, so broad minded and gracious that every other woman will seem petty beside you. Give a man quality and he won't want quantity.

Making Our Faces Over To Suit Us
(Continued from Page Two)
surgeons is Dr. William E. Balsinger, late of the American Expeditionary Force. He is by nature, friendly and human and able to understand the value of beauty in facial outline. Dr. Balsinger is probably America's most noted plastic surgeon. Hollywood turns to him. Society slips into his operating room. Actors, members of the sporting fraternity patronize him. Black and white alike are welcomed to the benefits of his trained hand and skillful touch. Some of the brown-skinned Americans are not as well known to the news reading public, but this has in no sense denied them the satisfaction that they have secured from the results of Dr. Balsinger's operations.
Dr. Balsinger is a specialist on the nose and the chin. Someway our noses and chins are two prominent places that make or mar us. A lantern-jawed man or woman is spotted for life and it takes Love's blindness to ignore it.
The human nose is another one of those protuberances that disturb us. Someway nature has never been liberal when it came to supplying perfect noses. There are too many with hooks or humps in them. There are ten millions or more that are spread out rather far on each side when perhaps they should be raised to lines of symmetry.
Malformations of the human nose, no matter how varied, come within the scope of the new surgeon of beauty. Dr. Balsinger says that he has taken the "hump" out of noses of hundreds of people by a process in internal surgery. But "saddleback" noses are his pets, and as such have been the subjects of his earnest endeavors with the scalpel.
The operating procedure followed for the correcting of noses whose bridges have gone down is simple. Primarily it consists in removing from behind the ear a portion of the cartilage there whose substance is identical in its nature and formation to the cartilage of the nose. This living cartilage, with its surrounding soft tissues, following removal is immediately grafted internally into the nose, thus starting to build up a new bridge, or if there never was a proper line there, one is immediately made.
New Noses Stay Put
That new noses stay new, is evident from experience. When Jack Dempsey and Tunney fought for the championship it was Jack's new nose that had to stand many hard blows from the glove-covered fist battering of Gene. "Dempsey's nose as reconstructed was fully twenty-five per cent stronger than the old one, and thus was able to withstand a harder blow," according to an expert.
In Europe and in some cities of America, various articles and substances have been employed in nose reconstruction. They include rib cartilage, which is non-yielding, inelastic; and parafine, ivory, celluloid, rubber and gutta-percha. However, "a nose made of ear cartilage is capable of being subjected to all the usages a 'ready-made' nose is sub-
ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—April 12. 1930
jected to. It can be twisted, pulled, hit hard. This is because it is made of the same material as enters into the composition of the ear. And if you can pull, twist, and hit an ear and it suffers no particular harm, the same holds good for a nose made out of ear substance."
Many colored people have availed themselves of the ability of the plastic surgeon. Noses have been changed. They have experienced the same thrill that came to Jack Dempsey when he looked in the mirror and found that he had a nose that only an artist could properly admire. Our noses, somewa. can give us self assurance and confidence, or they can make us hesitant and uncertain. We are pretty much the sort of people that our noses make us as far as our contact with others is concerned.
As our noses affect us, so also do our chins. A too small or too large chin proves difficult to forget. Our eyes and the contours of our cheeks also enter into the picture shown us by our mirrors.
"Fixing" the Nose
For the patient a local anaesthetic is applied. After the tough layers of skin and flesh are loosened from the bridge of the nose by a small surgical knife, the minute saw is inserted and patiently sawed about to remove the cartilage that keeps the nose flat. The operation sounds painful, but in practical reality it is hardly felt by the beauty-seeker.
Next the skin is cut off that is in excess of the need. This is carefully put away in a salt solution and thus preserved, for some other patient may come in needing a bit of new skin for grafting or a nose may need to be built up. The plastic surgeon
Relief from Gas Stomach Pains Dizziness
The doctors tell us that 90 per cent of all sickness is due to stomach and bowel troubles. You can't be well if your digestion is bad; you are likely to get sick unless you relish food and digest it properly. Tanlac has a wonderful record as a relief from digestive troubles, even those of years' standing.
Local people, many of whom you know, are highly endorsing Tanlac. For example, Mrs. Ellen White says: "For years I suffered from indigestion. I got no relief from anything until I took Tanlac. After my fourth bottle, I feel like a new person and have a fine appetite."
If you suffer from gas, pains in the stomach or bowels, dizziness, nausea, constipation, or torpid liver; if you have no appetite, can't sleep and are nervous and all run down, you need Tanlac. It is good, pure medicine, made of roots, herbs and barks. Get a bottle from your druggist today. Money back if it doesn't help you. Accept no substitute.
are removed for Nature acts rapidly. Special care and skill are needed in changing noses, for a false move by an inexperienced surgeon of the new art may make the nose even worse than before and sometimes a facial paralysis develops.

To remove the superfluous skin the surgeon draws it down toward the wings of the nose, an equal amount on each side, where the clamps are placed on and a fleshy gusset is made, such as a seamstress is familiar with. Splints are placed carefully and a solution of collodion is used.

Eyelashes, too, have been adjusted, grafted and produced to fit the individual. When eyelids are grafted, the hairs are not inserted one by one as some may think. Instead, a portion of delicate skin is grafted on, in which already are growing the hairs desired. This skin and these hairs have frequently been taken from the eye of a young healthy person suddenly killed, or they have been taken from some delicately haired portion of the body of the patient.
The wonders of plastic surgery are many. Its results are remarkable. Faces may be changed so startingly that family acquaintances can be fooled. All walks of life have turned toward the new sciences seeking for help to rectify Nature. Plastic surgery is the Cinderella which waves the wand and presto! noses are changed, lips are smoothed out, chins are remodeled, and our own mothers and fathers are unable to recognize us.
Beauty of face, like beauty of figure, has its effect upon the mind. After a successful operation the patient will act younger, because she feels younger; and happier, because she enjoys life more and there is no dodging the mirrors. Bright eyes straight noses, small ears, change the whole world - if we have them
But if you are dissatisfied with the face that you must live behind and your bank account will not permit you to visit a plastic surgeon, don't worry. Worry, too, makes even plain faces look sad and tired, but laughter and gayety makes them handsome in appearance to the other fellow—and that someway is what counts so much—the way the other fellow sees us.
With plastic surgery available for all of us, the time may come, when like the dentist, we will all have our date at his office. We can then slip in for a few hours to have our faces changed to fit our purposes for the time being, our business, our friends, or our moods. It may be a bit costly, but what does cost amount to if you can look the way you want to look?

In the confusion which followed, a number of children who had been standing on the sidewalk were forced off into the street by their panicstricken elders. They were directly in the path of the maddened steer, which bore down on them with lowered horns.

Rod plunged through the crowd in one furious motion. The sight of the little children in the path of the frenzied steer made his soul turn sick at the thought of what would happen if he were not able to stop the beast. The steer, its red eyes rolling wildly, its nostrils dilated and frothing, halted as Rod came into the range of its vision.

Rod paid him no heed. The steer wagged its head slowly from side to side. Its sharp, crooked horns lowered menacingly. Women were screaming hysterically. Men's voices rose high over the other noises, shouting useless advice. Abruptly the steer plunged toward Rod. It seemed that no human force could halt the crazed animal before it could drive its wicked horns into Rod's body, and trample him with its cumbrous. pointed hooves. The crowd fell suddenly silent.
