BRAUN IN BATTLE FOR TRUSTEE'S JOB Residents of Gary For Past 39 Years Seeks Office; State Aims Known throughout Gary, because of his long residence here, and asking that his many friends support him in his effort, Otto F. Braun, a brother of Watter Braun, councilman of the Sixth ward, today announced his candidacy for township trustee subject to the will of the voters in the primary Tuesday. Mr. Braun was born in Tolleston in 1891, the son of a pioneer resident of the township, who is now living at Ross.

GARY, INDIANA, SATURDAY, MAY 3, 1930 Van Horne Seeks Nomination For The Legislature Well Known Attorney, Known to Many Thru Past Record, Seeks Nomination The candidacy of Willard B. Van Horne for state representative will recall to many the days when Lake county was just beginning to develop into the "Empire of the Calumet." It was at that time, in 1911, 1913 and 1915, that he was a member of the house of representatives from M. W. B. VAN HORNE Lake and Newton Counties. Altho he was one of the four republicans in the house, he lost no opportunity to lay the foundation for Lake county's present leadership of that body. He was a fighter and a worker for his constituents. A College Man Willard B Van Horne was born at (Continued on page 4) CLEVELAND SEEKS NOMINATION FOR JUDGE ROOM '5 Veteran Attorney Seeks The Honor of Representing Party in Race Judge Clyde Cleveland, declared by his friends to be one of the best known and ablest jurists in Lake county, will seek the republican nomination for his present post, judge of room 5 of Lake superior court in Hammond, in the primary election May 6. A prominent attorney of Lake county recently said, concerning Judge Cleveland's candidacy for renomination: "Judge Cleveland's decisions always have been sound; his conduct of his court dignified and business-like. Why change?" Perhaps 80 percent of the cases in the courts today are tried by the judge without the aid of jury. A judge, therefore, should have a deep insight into human nature, and the broader his acquaintance, the deeper the sympathy and knowledge of every day problems he can bring to bear on problems of court. Reared In Indiana Judge Cleveland has a well known reputation for readiness to understand each individual's troubles, his friends declare. He can and does meet countless people from every walk of life when frankness and understanding. It is a part of his every day work. Appointed to the bench three years ago, Judge Cleveland has won the approval and support of the Lake county bar, his supporters affirm. Born 45 years ago, reared in southern Indiana, educated in the public schools, seven years in college and state university, admitted to practice 20 years ago, 16 years in Lake county, 13 of those years as a practicing attorney, he now is asking to be returned this time for a full second term as judge of Lake Superior court, room 5.

Szikora Defies Raps Of Rivals; Asks Support The battle for township trustee was renewed with new vigor when Miss Margarite Szikora, candidate for township trustee, denounced her opponents to a packed house, Wednesday night, at 600 Washington st. She declared that her opponents have brought unfair charges against her, and that she can say that in the twenty-three years as a resident of Gary, she has always had the respect of all.

PRICE THREE CENTS CLERGY RESENTS THREATS SENT TO COLORED FAMILY Body To Take Action As Reply To Effort to Force Colored Out of Home NEW YORK-With the clergy of White Plains taking a strong stand in favor of the two colored physicians who recently were threatened with violence because they purchased homes in districts inhabited by white people, sentiment has completely changed in the matter. Following last week's conference with leading clergymen and other citizens, by Messrs. Herbert J. Sellgmann and William T. Andrews of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a strong statement was released to the press charging the editors of White Plains lailies with stimulating race friction, and calling upon all citizens for calmness. Rabbi Raps Newspapers On Friday night, Rabbi Abram V. Goodman, of White Plains, in his sermon, issued a scathing denunciation of the attitude of the press and citizens of White Plains toward the two Negro doctors, and urged Jewish people to refuse to sign the segregation covenants being circulated among the white people. This sermon by Rabbi Goodman was featured and extensively quoted from on the front pages of both the White Plains dailies. Since then both papers have daily telephoned to the N.A.A.C.P. to ask for statements and news and the N.A.A.C.P. point of view has been given full publicity. The latest development in White Plains as reported in the New York Times is a resolution signed by eleven white and two colored clergymen, deploring the stirring of racial antagonism by White Plains citizens, and condemning as un-American the threat to boycott the local Community Chest as a weapon in the segregation campaign. The statement closed as follows: "We call attention to the only reasonable human emphasis, which is upon character and personality rather than upon color." MRS. COTHERY GETS OVATION ON S. SIDE Replies to Propaganda of Rivals; Mullen Rapped by Mrs. Webster By Earl J. Morris Alice Newlin Cothery, candidate for Township Trustee, exposed the issues that have been directed at her in the battle for Trustee, Thursday night at a moster mass meeting held at the Rosemont hall, 19th and Broadway. When Mrs. Cothery rose to speak horns started blowing, cheers and whistling greeted her, and it reminded one of Armistice Day in 1918. This tribute paid to the deputy trustee lasted over five minutes before it fully subsided. "It has been charged by my opponents, that the funds of Township Trustee's office have been used to finance my campaign stated Mrs. Cothery. "It is a lie, there is not a man big enough in the state of Indiana, to accuse the Newlins of graft, and get away with it" continued Mrs. Cothery. Miss Alice Newlin, township trustee, declared that Johnnie Mullens, opponent of Mrs. Cothery, accused her of conducting the office of Trustee unfairly to the colored people. "I defy any one to prove that I've been unfair or shown any prejudice to colored people in my office," shouted Miss Newlin. "They are directing a gumshoe campaign against my sister, and counting the number of colored people the office aids, carrying this information back to the north side, and making a race issue out of the campaign," stated Miss Newlin. "Hard times always hit the Negro hardest and for that reason he is constantly in the office, and then they do (Continued on page 6) RTARTA RZ GMMR oHe AM TF AFT ssa te emmeas Notice is hereby given to ‘the Voters ‘of Lake Coutity, Indi, that the fol- lowhiig list contains the names ‘and addresses of all ‘Candidates whose names will appear on the fespective primary bal- lots, to-wit: REPUBLICAN PRIMARY TICKET For Representative in Congress ‘Wiliam R.

At that time the pro- ceeds were used to furnish and equip a room in the Lake County Children’s Home at a cost of $200.00. The Business & Professional Wom- en’s ‘club has at all times interested itself in Civie development and_ in every movement that tended toward a larger community life. Their an- nual Woman's Day program is the year’s aesthetic treat. On various oc- cassions they have fostered cultural programs drawing in large audiences of both races—an effective measure toward racial resnect and confidence.

Dr. Giorgi Enters ** Rate For Coroner; ““** Asks for Support (Continued from Page 1) where a colored doctor can practice medigine and surgery on the same only, hospital in Calumet township plane with the whites. The office of coroner of Lake County is one that should be passed around in the medical ‘profession and not captured or retained -by any one in dividnal for a longer period than that usually accarded republican office holders. Dx. Giorgi is eminently equipped and in every way qualified for this responsible position his friends de- clare,, He is a graduate of the most renowned medical colleges of his na- tive.eity, Rome, Italy. He has been a successful physician with a large practice fer more than 35 years being loeated the major portion of this time in America, and being a practicing physician, and surgeon in Gary for the past,22 years. For a period of 12 years he was a member of the Rome, Italy, State, Board of Health. That-every race and creed and color receive the same consideration and charity if, the circumstances of the case eall for, it it is well known, Me has a.large clientele of colored pa tients. and, this. race that comprise: such a goodly portion of the popula. tion of Lake County is warmly appre- ciative pf the fair treatment it has received from him at all times. During his residence in the Stee! City Dr. Giorgi has had ample op- portunity of scrutinizing the manner in which each coroner conducted this office and feels that if he will be sue- cessful in the nomination and electior the will be able to employ the many things left undone. Dr. Giorgi is an independent candi date bound to ‘no clique or faction. “I am out to capture the nomina tion for myself,” Dr. Giorgi said to: day, “and if I can depend upon the support of many of my good colored friends, I am confident that I will be nominated in the great battle at the polls Tuesday.” No. 13 on the Ballot Among the elective county officers for which candi. | dates are soon to be chosen, none is more iniportant or far reaching in its relation to the keeping of the law than that of Prosecutor. He selects and appoints a large number of deputy prosecutors to carry on the work of securing and presenting that evidence that hall prove the criminal guilty and make certain his conviction, or, on the other hand, at- test the innocence of those who have been wrongftlly ar- rested and brought to trial. 2 The prosecutor must be a man of character and dis- crimination, versed in the law and capable of its exposition before a court and jury. He should be of long residence in the county and well acquainted with its needs in respect to this office. , And he should be a man of such standing and connections as to be worthy of all confidence, Such a man is available to the Republican voters in this time of stress; a man who is not only capable but willing to put his shoulder to the wheel and lift until the Grand Old Party shall have reached a higher level in Lake county. Oscar A. Ahlyren came to Whiting some thirty-one years ago as a child when the impressions of life fell deepest and most ineradicably upon him. He avoided bad habits by busying himself with work. As a pupil in the schools and as a student in high school he applied himself to get all there was to be obtained through conscientous application. Re- warded with a scholarship, he put himself through college with high honors, The World War found him in law school and ended just as he had compléted his training in the air service of his country. ne Through all his life Mr. Ahlgren was compelled to make his own way, supporting at the same time a-home net-teo well blessed with wordly goods. At the end of the big war, he began the practice of law. For four years as Lake county Representative in the State Legislature, he served with dis- tinction, earning the high regard of his co-legislators arid the universal approbation of his constituents. “As Repab- lican floor leader he conducted the affairs of his party with such dignity and efficiency as to win him the respect and the regard of the ablest men in the Legislature. Feeling that the time is ripe and the need is great for such_ service as he has to offer, places the vigor of his youth and the ability of his manhood at the disposal of citizens of Lake county to the end that county affairs may feel’ the hand of a public official who is as just as he is humane, a, man who is willing to serve in the most effective way ‘that present lights indicate. 9, Don’t Forget the.Name e No. 13 on the Republican Ballot SNANANNWNWNNNNNNNNWNWNANSNNANNANAN NNN NN SANNA NN GN HN WHO'S YOUR MAN FOR | , LAKE COUNTY o o Commissioner FIRST DISTRICT a je 7 ‘ a W.

Belshaw Speaks To Women in Harbor J. Will Belshaw, candidate for judge of the Lake Superior court, room No. 5, talked to a large group of colored women at the home of Mrs. A. L. Al- Jen in Indiana Harbor, on last Thurs- day afternoon. Mr. Belshaw in asking the ladies present; for their vote said: “If selected for this office by the people of Lake County, I promise with all earn- estness and sincerity that I will try the cases before men with utmost fairness, and will treat all races and persons alike irrespective of whether they are colored or white, native or foreign born. As a judge I will con- tinue to believe as I always have, that you cannot measure a person’s Ameri- canism or loyalty to the United States by the church they attend, or wheth er they Were born of colored or white parentage. “I believe, as IT always have, that any organization, such as the now al: most extinet Ku Klux Klan, which at- tempts to set up such false standards is a menace to our country and its in stitutions, and I shall always be op posed to that organization or any like movmeents. It is upon those princi ples that I solicit your vote on May 6th. My number is 21, and I hope you ‘will remember me.” -Mr. Belshaw was enthusiastically applauded by, the ladies present, just as he has been well received all over th county, & “Happy Days” Huge i Suecess in Loop “Happy Days” continues at the Roosevelt Theatre, enjoying an un usual bit of popularity.

He has grown up with the town and is now one of its leading attorneys. Except for the three terms in the Legislature he has not held public office, but has worked in a private capacity on many projects. He is at present chairman of the Water transportation committee of the Chamber of Commerce at East Chicago and one of the three Indiana members of the board of directors of the Mississippi Valley Waterways association, and in connection with these positions he has been actively engaged in improving the harbor facilities of the Calumet region so that when the Lakes-to-the-Gulf and St. Lawrence seaways are open, this district will be in a position to take the lead as the terminus of both systems. His committee of the Chamber of Commerce recently obtained the congressional committee's approval of an appropriation of $600,000.00 from congress for the improvement of the Indiana Harbor Ship canal which will enable the boats to carry larger cargoes and to go farther down the canal. He is very much interested in water transportation because he believes that cheaper transportation will widen the market for Lake county's goods, both agricultural and industrial, and with a wider market production will increase and work will become more plentiful. He is especially interested in the improvement of Burns ditch and the Little Calumet river to give the city of Gary a public harbor and more industries. A Staunch Republican He was a pioneer worker in the Republican party and it was through the efforts of these pioneers that Indiana Harbor became one of the bulwarks of the Republican party in Lake county. His legal standing is of the highest order. He is a member of the bar of the Supreme court of the United States and the Supreme courts of Indiana and Illinois. He is a member of the American Bar association, the Indiana State Bar association and the Commercial Law League of America. He has freely given the benefit of his legal experience to many civic and charitable projects, including the Isaac Walton league and the Roy Scouts His record in the three sessions of the legislature speaks for him as an honest and able worker and fighter for his constituents and marks him as a man who will ably represent Lake county in the next session of the Indiana State legislature which will see many important and far-reaching measures considered. WASHINGTON. — Before an audience of about two hundred people in Andrew Rankin chapel Tuesday night, the Howard university debating team met the team from Wilberforce in a no-decision debate on the question, "Resolved: That all the Nations of the World Should Adopt a Program of Complete Disarmament Except such Forces as are necessary for Police Purposes." Wilberforce was represented by Messrs. Matthews and Lowe, while Howard was represented by Messrs. Manning and Swan, with Minnis as alternate. Professor C. E. Burch of the English department served as chairman. All the speakers acquitted themselves well, but the work of Lowe for Wilberforce and Swan for Howard was especially commendable. VOTE FOR EARL R.

H. Dabziel, Canadian collector of national revenue at Windsor, Canada. "We have experienced extreme difficulty in this respect, particularly with tourists from Illinois," the Canadian official declared. "Four out of five drivers from that state do not carry their state license card. Great inconvenience could be avoided if the owners would present it. "If they are not in possession of the card, they stand a big chance of being refused admission with their car." The importance of this statement to American motorists is reflected in the fact that during 1929 more than 4,500,000 U. S. cars entered Canada. Three and one-half millions entered through Ontario ports, mainly Windsor. The tourists in those cars spent a total of $300,000,000 in the dominion, and 53 percent in Ontario. Accidents to school children have been greatly reduced through school boy safety patrols. No. 14 1.

By JAMES A. JACKSON EET the Racketeers! Meet the M. fellows ‘‘who toil not, neither do they spin,” but who have dedi- cated their mental capacities to collect- ing the living that the world is alleged to have owed them, without rendering any compensating service. Rack- eteers are legion, and Chica- go is the stamping ground of as many of them as may be found in any city in the land, New York, the home of the big money ‘‘Boob”’ alone be- ing excepted. The term “racketeer,” is the successor to the former word “Hustler,” and the word is without gender. Its devotees are of both sexes. They combine all the arts of the one time grafter, the fair ground “‘shilliber,” and what was once called the “Fakir” by those of us sophisticated enough to realize when we had been trimmed. The discipline of the racketeer, his battle song and his whole busi- ness policy are fabricated upon the belief that a “Sucker is born to be trimmed, and the trimmer might as well be me as some other bird.” They Like It “One Legged John,” for years an operator of games at the country fairs onze said succinctly, “Folks go out to spend so muck money for fun. The kick of losing their money is the big thrill of the year to most of then. If they didn't get trim- med trey would be disappointed with the day and with themselves, so you see we perform a distinct service to humanity,” all of which “Hot Clothes” are well known in many cities. This is the game where- by an inside man “grabs” the $10 suits from some small town store and sells them at the price of an exclusive fashion store. They cost the salesman nothing, since he usually steals them. But the poor “get-something-for- nothing” purchaser pays double the real price Of the goods and likes it. aa Ya ne. ae c : THE NUMBER LADY ABOVE, the insignia of Harlem Sadie, th: Crystal Gazer. For sometime, Detroit was terribly worked up over this notorious number lady. She had policy players standing on their heads at the prohibitive prices of $5 to $25 a throw.

The rent party is the most painless method of ex- tracting the necessary change at the necessary time. A cocktail, a sandwich, good music, pretty and broad- minded girls, and the party is on.

Virtually every phase oi the business is dis- tinct from the others with the ex- ception of two possible points in common. These points are, first, the almost certain need of exercising a cunning that virtually amounts to a breach of confidence; second. the further certainty that without some degree o: protection from. those charged with enforcing the law, or, at least, the complacent indulgence of the legal authorities, the racketeer and the ladies dependent upon his fi- nancial and moral support would not thrive. Found Everywhere There are variations galore, but the fundamentals of the racketeers remain the same. The old time driftin’ carnival, and the medicine show were all, more or less, travel- ing rackets. The former was a com- bination of every money getting de- vice, combined with organization to make the efforts of the individual worker more effective. These were in_a class by themselves. However, the local racketeer is the more particular interest, for ae.

The carnival grafter behind the little table with the “three balls” is as successful with his particular racket as the boot- legger. It is a game which is sup- posed to draw its recruits from the country “hicks,” but there is good reason to believe that the city man too, has lost his share unwarily to this old fashioned racketeer. And the game still goes on. - i : Ll 7 Wo S eR. ee . _ 3 ae a ea mi ee a eS & See |; See eas Sh YY of oe _ hl ae Ba Sas i SSS os oe pe ashes ee ORME ee ree bres tehC a Renee.

We mect Lim in the innocent looking smoke shop, in the employment agency that covers a clever resort for recruiting the human mills of vice in the distant manufacturing towns, the patent medicine cure-all with an appropriated foreign name, the bootlegger, whose activities are concealed beneath a camouflage of respectability. and the operator of even more horrible institutions. All are racketeers. The “Numbers” The dominant racket 9 today is the “numbers” game. Strong is no name ior this thing in which the public is literally pouring millions of hard earned dollars. Nothing is passed up. pennies, nickels, dimes and dollars all go into the agare- gate upon which these concealed racketeers feed. It is said that the game was introduced into New York by a Cuban. Be that as it may, it is known that the first operators there were Negroes. This, too was true of Chicago and some other large cities. But ‘ike all things of a commer- cial character. just as soon as “numbers” became Big Business, others more familiar with the hand- ling of money machinery became interested and through superior in- telligence, bolder moves, the pur- chase of immunity for themselves and th> buying of authoritative persecution for the Negro pioneers, these folk now command the game in most cities Bankers Can't Lose Who are they? How do I know? They remain well concealed behind a veritable army of collectors, sub agents, district depositories, run- ners, and auto scouts. They are barrteaded behind more movable of- fices than there were types of large guns i1 the World War. Those peripatetic officiais may not be found in the same place for more than a few days: and mere custom- ers never learn the location of the financial centre of the web in which they and their pennies are en- meshed. The odds, if paid, are 600 to 1; while the odds if legitimately ap- plied should be 1000 to 1. Not a bad difference. Yet from this the collector. when he does pay, with- holds ten per cent for services. Should “hits” be too plentiful for the receipts of a given dav pay- ments are suspended, for no rack- eteer ever gives from the surplus of other days; and there is no recourse unless one wishes to invite prosecu- tion as an accomplice to gambling, always cutlawed. The “Benefit” Racket Others of the genus racketeer, create organizations with high sounding names and give dances or other entertainments that serve to obtain public funds for apparently legitimate charities, while in reality they are but lining the personal bocket of the promoting genius. Associated with this fellow is the provram mar who sells advertising sbace in programs for these affairs. Thousands of copies are to be dis- tribute: i: one believes the solicitor In fact. ofttimes, jus' enough are printed to provide one tor each ad- vertiser. Last vear, one of these promo- ters advertised a dance in Chicaga that attracted just fourteen people, but the rames appearing upon the placards advertising the affair, car- ried such weight with the neigh- borhood that the promoters were enabled to stand the absence of the public, and to meet the obligations entailed with a nice balance in hand from the advertising sold in the program, the printing order for which was for precisely 200 copies. The advertising sold for $50.00 per page, and many pages were sold. “Hot Stuff” Not long since a racketeer whose bank roll had disappeared in the hands of one more versed than he in the manipulation of cards, went down town and bought a dozen suits of cheao clothing, and carrying one suit at a time. went forth to sell “some hot stuff” just from Mar- shall Field’s Chicago’s most ex- clusive clothiers. He sold every suit for move than twice what it was worth without the formality of an exact fit for any customer. His jrofit for one day was more than a hundred dollars after pay- ing the loan of less than six hours with the bonus of a ten dollar in- terest. Smooth work, almost clean merchandising.

No; Just a Good Artist So this Colored Girl Breaks into Difficult and Exclusive Field of Commercial Art By JOHN W. DOUGLAS Some of us lose valuable time before we are able finally to decide what we want to do. Not so with Gladys Black. She had hardly cut her first teeth before her parents discovered that their daughter intended to be an artist. All little Miss Black required was a pencil and something on which to draw. Her mother's nice clean walls often served when there wasn't any paper handy. As she grew older she continued to draw. When other children were playing "nide and go seek," Gladys was industriously covering the sidewalk with chalk figures. When other children were puzzling over the three "Rs," Gladys was drawing pictures in her copy book. There was nothing else for her parents to do but send Gladys to art school as soon as her high school course was completed. Here she spent three happy years drawing, painting, creating beautiful designs and having the pleasure of seeing her work displayed in the school's year book. In 1927 she graduated, the only colored girl in her class. The important thing now was where to find a job as a commercial artist. The field of commercial art is not an easy one. It is somewhat overcrowded, and only the most capable are able to gain a foothold. Gladys wanted to specialize in designs, to make those pretty shawls and dainty covers that delight the hearts of women. Looking through the want ads, she saw that a large firm in New York wanted a girl to do "Aurora" work. This type of work includes the designing of banners for churches, Sunday Schools, lodges and similar organizations. Miss Black went to New York and applied for the position. She took with her as a sample a wall hanging that one of her art teachers had offered to buy. The manager looked at Miss Black, rubbed his chin thoughtfully, examined the sample critically, looked at Miss Black again, considered for a minute and forthwith employed her. Evidently the excellence of her work overbalanced any objection he might have had to her color. Some may consider this a stroke of good luck and, in truth, good luck seemed to follow this young lady. She A had hardly become accustomed to her new job before another firm sent for her on the recommendation of a former classmate. This firm, the Dytex Art Studio, supplies wholesale houses with art covers, scarfs, coverlets and handkerchiefs. It was just the kind of work that Gladys loved, and, besides, the salary offered was most attractive, for now she would earn about forty dollars a week—some weeks, more. Because of her training in art (Continued on Page Five) ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—May 3. 1930 The Thirteen Most Interesting Negroes In The United States member of the editorial staff of the Boston Post Continued from Last Week Then there is another Johnson who is equally interesting. Three times have I heard Mordecai Wyatt Johnson, B.D., S.T.D., D.D., speak from the platform, and I liked him less each time. I do not care ever to hea him again. Well, that is not quite true. I think that if I were given assurance beforehand that he would not try to convince his white audience that, after all, he was a member in good standing of the traditional Negro school of oratory—well, I might go. But I do not like monkeyshines in public speakers, unless the act is supposed to be in their repertory. Of course, it is all a matter taste. My taste chances to run in the opposite direction. Mr. Johnson is an important personage in Aframerica, and like Nannie Helen Burroughs, he is influential. A man in a position like his would be interesting ```markdown ``` GEORGE SCHUYLER even if he did not say "How'd" for Howard, "cha'chter" for character, "ve'y" for very, and "Jipan" for Japan. These little characteristics of speech bu tendear the man to the people whom he leads. And he does lead them most effectively, whether it be in singing of a spiritual with the refrain "glory hallelujah" or as the hard-working head of an institution still spoken of at times as "the capstone of of Negro education." Dr. Johnson is interesting, too, as typifying the Negro college president; as a rather noisy and blustery pulpit orator of less than profound scholarship; as a man who would be idealized as a Baptist pastor of a sedate country church. He is an earnest man, just a little pompous and self-conscious in the destiny a blundering fate thrust upon him; but, fortunately for the boys and girls who look to him for leadership, he is fully aware of his responsibility, even if aware also of his inabilitiy to fulfill it. Very interesting. Very, very interesting! I do not agree with the Bostonian who said that Nannie Helen Burroughs and William Pickens, A.M., Litt.D., would make a hell of a fine vaudeville team. I should prefer to se Miss Burroughs paired with Professor Alain Leroy Locke, A.M., Ph.D., in such a venture, if there had to be such a team. I doubt seriously, however, that Dr. Locke contemplates going into vaudeville. Certainly he has not indicated such an intention in any of the public speeches I have heard him make. But if he should ap- pains on cold wet days?

For, although a profound thinker and a man of scholarship, one whose formal education rests on a substantial foundation. Mr. Pickens is interesting to me principally as a Negro who will go a long way to make his Caucasian audience guffaw. His ludicrosities differ from Miss Burroughs's in that his invariably cover a philosophical seriousness. Yet the average white audience would probably overlook this distinction between two speakers whom it would think of as "typical darkies," if Mr. Pickens and Miss Burroughs should chance to travel together on a lecture tour. Secondarily. Mr. Pickens interests me as a writer—in excellent English,—who he a radical point of view regarding many things. There are so few Negroes whose minds ever stray from the narrow groove of conventional and predetermined thought, that when we discover a mind that does stray away independently we regard it with curiosity, if not with amazement. Pickens's is such a mind. It is his diversity of talents,—his penchant for buffoonery, his splendid scholarship, the originality and stamina of his thought,—which make him one of the most interesting personalities in America. I thought that Julian David Rainey, L.L.B., would be a total eclipse for the next four years, he having just entered Boston's legal department for the duration of Mayor James Michael Curley's term of office. But I have changed my mind about it. A less clever politician would undoubtedly be obscured behind a mass of municipal law minutia, but Rainey had not been in office two weeks before he was laying a massive wreath at the foot of Lincoln's statue. in the face of a half dozen greedy newspaper cameras. It may be forgotten that he was the man who headed the Negro Democrats of the country in the latest presidenti campaign, but all literate citizens are going to be reminded constantly that Julian David Rainey still knows the value of publicity. I know Rainey better than I do any other person I have so far mentioned.

SMITH Talented Negro Wuter (Begin Reading Here) fa eager perce a I asin ee aS gg ge love_ SYNOPSIS See ie et deg ee gee a ee eee lawyer friend, Martin Thompson, takes him to a party given by Alderman Durant for his daughter, Lyla. Rod, unused to so- clety’s ways, treads on the girl’s foot and is insulted for hi clumsiness by Reggie, her fiance. 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 blew. Lyla thinks Rod is a coward, but she learns dif- ferently when he takes her from Wolf, a notorious gangster who had snatched her from RKeggie’s arms while they were dan- cing. 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. As manager of prizefighters, Kling, who was in the cabaret when Rod fought with the gangsters, offers him a contract to be- come a boxer, and Rod accepts in order to make enough money to enter school. At the gymnasium Kling orders Kelly, another ef his boxers, to put on the gloves with Rod, in order to see how skilled his new fighter is. Kelly. afraid that Rod may re- Place him, tries to harm him when they get inte 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 dis- aster by begging him not to spoil their friondship. They leave the beach, and as they reach the sidewalk, she discovers that she hasn’t hex 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, Reg- gie’s identity is not known to him until after he has beaten him severely, Lyla, for some reason which he does not under- stand becomes angry at him and after they take Reggie to a doctor, tells him to gO away. A. tho 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 enter- ing. Zeda laughs triumphantly and, pulling Rod into the room, slams the door. Rod goes to Kling’s office, where his manager informs him that, in two weeks, he is to fight Mickey Latzo, chief contend- er for the middleweight championship. They go to the offices of the Arena’s man- ager, where the contract is signed, several mewspaper reporters being present. When they leave the place, two of the Feporters accompany them. At one of the city’s busiest corners, a truck carrying a number of steers, crashes into another ma- chine. One of the animals breaks loose and charg>s madly across the street. Rod, trained on the range for just such an emergency as this, leaps out in front of the beast as hundreds of people watch in fascinated horror. Directly back of him are a number of small children who will be crushed by the enraged steer unless Red is able to halt its terrible charge. Rod leaps aside just in time to avoid the charging steer, then, after the fashion of the West, he succeeds in “bulldogging” the animal by twisting its neck so that it falls te the cround. That night he is awakened from sleep by kisses, and by soft hands stroking his face and hair. At first. only half-awake, he dream: it is Lyla, but Zeda’s voice brings him to the consciousness that she has come in'>» his room while he slept. She tells him that when she wants a man she “gets” him. Being a normal youth, Rod gives in to her wiles, and returns her kiss- es and embraces. A more serious develop- ment is avoided when Martin, Rod’s lawyer friend, arrives. Zeda hides in Rod's closet. Martin brings the evening papers which contain Red’s picture and the story of his exploit. Yinally he goes. and Zeda emerges from the closet dressed in Rod’s bathrobe, her dress in her hand. Kod stares as she throws off the rebe, disclosing her lovely form in sheer silk garments. She holds out her arms to him, and he walks slowly toward her. Zeda_has ceme to Rod’s room unan- nounced, but is forced toe hide in a clothes cleset when Red’s friend, Martin, arrives, After Martin leaves she emerges almost un- clothed, but Martin, suspecting her pres- ence, returns unexpectediy. She is furious, and slaps his face, then leaves. Martin explains to Red that he deesn’t want te see him mixed up with the girl, as she has been involved in several ugly scandals.

I’ve told Rod that I in- tend to marry Reggie in soi of—of my love for him,” Lyla sobbed. “And I don’t intend to let her sac- rifice herself for anyone, even you!” the youth cried. “Mr. Durant, there must be some way out of this besides maki .z Lyla marry that fellow.” “Young man, I have been in pes tics for twenty years, and if there were any way in which I could free myself of this tangle—which you seem to know about,” his voice be- came bitter,” through the efforts of my daughter, whom I thought I could trust, I would know that way out.” oe threw her arms around his neck. “I told him about it, Daddy, but I thought I did owe it to him t “But Pll not do it again.” explain why I must marry Reggie when we've been—so much to each other!” “But you violated my confidence when you told him!” the Alderman said inexorably. “But, sir—,” Rod began. “ROD AND “POP” DURANT QUARREL “There is nothing you can say, young man!” Mr. Durant cut him off sharply. “I can only ask that you stay out of this affair completely. Your interference can only mean disaster for me, and if what you say about caring for my daughter is true, you must realize that any stigma which falls on me also affects her.” “Oh, Daddy, surely there must be scmething—.” “Nothing, my dear,” the Alderman said more gently. “Well, I'm sorry that you won't let me help,” Rod said, starting for the door, his young face set in hard lines, “but I don't intend to give up Lyla for anyone.” He turned to face them. “Even you!” With that he plung2d down the hall and out of the front door. “Your young man seems deter- mined, Mr. Durant said in a voice which suddenly seemed old and tired. . “Oh, he's wonderful, Daddy, and } oN there really anything we can do so I won't have to go through with marrying Reggie?” “What have you against Reggie?” her father asked evasively. “Before this other fellow came along, you seemed to like Reggie all right. He's a nice looking boy, and he'll be able to give you anything you want.” “But I have everything I want. You give me everything, dear!” “However, if I incur Reggie's fath- er’s ill-will, I will have nothing.” He spread out his hands in an express- ive gestvre. “Nothing! I’ve never been in such a position in my life. Without that gangster Wolf to back him up, I should be able to give Reg- gie’s father the political licking of his life, but—Wolf is firmly in- trenched.” LYLA LEARNS SOMETHING “I'll bet Rod will do something to that Wolf!” Lyla prophesied. “He beat him up once!” “Yes, and he came near losing his pe as a result, too,” her father told er. ; “What do you mean?” Lyla asked quickly. Her father related how Wolf nad abducted Rod and taken him out into the country with the intention of shooting him, and how the Federal agents had saved him. “How do you know all this, Daddy? Rod never breathed a word of it to me!” the girl cried, her eyes frightened. “Never mind how I happened ta know it,” he uepued wearily. “I can tell you that the only reason Wolf didn’t do away with your boy friend afterwards was because I asked him not to. I knew you liked the boy.” “Oh, Daddy!” the girl sobbed, throwing her arms once more around her father. “And to think I didn't know.” “Don’t let me down, dear,” he beggec, his voice pleading. “If I can just get through this situation, 1 promise you I'm going to get out of politics for good.” “You mean—marry Reggie?” Lyla faltered. “Yes, I do mean that,” he sighed. “Reggie is his father's only interest in life, in spite of the fact that every- one thinks he is absolutely heartless. Where that boy is concerned he’s 4s soft as mush. He knows that Reggie is in love with you, and if you should Happen to turn him down — that would be—my finish.” He sagged down into a chair, cover- ing his face with his hands, LYLA CONSENTS In a voice which she tride to mak2 brave, Lyla spoke. “All right, Daddy. ff it will help you any, I will marry Reggie when- ever you say.” Immediately the man_ brightened. “lL knew you wouldn’t fail me, my dear child.” He rose to his feet impetuously. “The sooner the better, because once Reggie's family and mine are con- nected, his father wouldn't dare do anything which might bring disgrace upon us all.” Lyla choked back her tears and faced him with as bright a smile as she could summon. “Whatever you say, Daddy.” “Well, let's make it next Sunday,” he suggested eagerly. “I'll call Regi- nald and tell him the glad news.’ Lyla was silent as her father made his way quickly to the telephone. She was thinking that Saturday night Rod would have his bout in the ring. And Sunday she would be married to a man whom she did not love. She sighed deeply, but did not at- tempt to halt her father as he talked jto Reggie's father. Il Rod left the house in a blaze of angry emotion. In opie of his brave words he had not the least idea of how to avert the catastrophe which threatened. He cast around in his mind for a way to render the Wolf helpiess, but no idea came to him. If he sought him out it would only mean that he would probably be bested in a pee: cal encounter, as the Wolf would not again allow him close enough to re- ly on his fists, as he had done so eunoeaetllly that night in the Swamp ut. ROD GETS AN IDEA Then he remembered the card which the Federal agent had given him, and what the agent had told him. It was early afternoon.

RENT PARTIES She was a nice girl and had cul- ture, of which she was proud. She fell upon unfortunate days, and the rent was overdue. She was in despair. until she happened to meet a racketeer. His heart was touched, but do 't suppose he would jar loose his change. No. no. He would, how- ever, relieve her situation by show- ing her wha: to do. The result was 2 rent party. Now rent parties are simple little socia! functions that yield nice profits to the promoters. A little barkecue meat, the making ot a sandwich and a few bottles of needled beer; “Real Stuff” is what is whisnered as the guests are serv- ed at :. fourfold price, and a gallon of moonshine. and your party is complete save for the guests. Here is where the racketeer shows his cunning. He passes the word to smoke shop friends, drops a tip as to the address to several taxicab drivers who “know their oats,” and from some mysterious rendezvous, come the visitors, each of whom sineerely believes that he has struck some lucky streak in search of pleasure. The affair is a_ success. Profits have been about 600 per cent and the racketeer takes half of the ret. Out of this he slips his “boys” a “Bit” in the language of the craft. and goes wearily to bed with a nice piece of change and the credit of having done his daily gooa deed. -Of course, if the officer on the beat had to be aluared, or there was a neighbor who was so unkind as to “squawk” at noise, his part is diminished some by virtue of having to “do a fix.” THE HOCK SHOP GAME The racketeer — bless his cun- ning hide — is with us always. There is the hock shop game which, today, doesn’t seem to be very popu- lar with the nimble-witted gentry. In this game the sucke: purchases a pawn ticket from the “lead on man” at a very low figure, and all he has to do is go to the pawn shop and get the pawned articles out. Of course, you are wise enough to see through that, and you insist that the seller accompany you to the alleged pawn shop and show you what he hes to sell. THE “CON” MAN You are somewhat surprised when the “con” man readily agrees to the proposition He takes you to the pawn shop, shows you what you have presumakly purchased, and asks if you are satisfied. You reply that you are—but my, what a sad awakening is coming to you! You go back to get the stuff and the owner of the vlace informs you that the fellow ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTIQN—May, 8,.1086 bwas only buying the articles on time and that ae thought you were a friend who had come in just to see what he nad bought. No, he can’t give you your money back, is awfully sorry the thing hap- pened in his place and al) that sort of rot whiie you stand helpless to Tecover your money. This game, though, since the regulation.of pawn- shops by «ity ordinances, has become almost, if not practically, obsolete. | “CROOKED COMPLEX” | Another favorite stunt of the con man is to set up in the toilet manu- facturing business and advertise for @ lot of help. He sells you a kit of samples for five or ten dollars and then skips town. The Fit is usually worth about ninety-eight cents. This, police say, is the border line between open banditry and high fi- nance. The fellow usually operating such a@ confidence game as this, has the making of a business man of genius and a “crooked ccmplex” that won't permit him to cyecute pronerly once cash gets within his hand. “PERSUADERS” Perhaps the most profitable racket today is the organization of protec- tive bodies of one sort or another. Many sma! merchants have seen victimized by nice sounding associa- tions for trade advancement and protection that are really hold-up projects. Membersl:ip fees are high and hesitancy about joining is met with a call trom the reception com- mittee or the “persuaders”—little fire bombs, that shatter shops, or just throw a scare into the shopkeeper, as the occasior warrants. FEW NEGROES IN THIS It is said that Chicago, New York, Detroit, St. Louis, and other cities have provided a toll of several mil- lion dollars each to this type of racketeer and his gang. Few Negroes have been found engaged in this big business type. It takes more capi- tal and more men working together than is usually possible in the # fri- can section of America’s vopulation. QUICK WITTED SALESMAN Two or three Negroes have become shining examples of distinctiveness in lone hand plays that descend upon sheer nerve for the perpetration of the hustle; and upon the vanity of the white man who bit, but who suffered his losses without « “squawk” rather than publicly admit that a Negro had victimized him.

You, I gather, are a man of the world. Then why did you marry such a cold creature, if you did not like the chill sweetness of a saint? She is the old-fashioned girl, so like the old-fashioned husband it is up to you to teach her what you want her to know. Do not frighten her further into her marble tower by any uncouth speech or manner (you may have already done so). But be gentle and patient with her and make her feel that for both your sakes she must accept and enjoy the physical side of life. Buy her some dresses of the type that you admire and soon she will be buying the same kind nerself.

In the letter that he writes, the young fellow tells me that he does not understand the girl. He says: "I believe she loves me, I am sure of that, but somehow I don't understand her and I am afraid to take the step that will join our lives for all time unless I am sure that I understand her." This is a wonderful attitude, because out of this lack of understanding comes an uncertainty that is going to last and destroy future happiness.

"SOLD" JOBS An employment office in New York once took nearly a hundred people of assorted nationalities to Staten Island to work after collecting $3.00 from each of them. Personally escorting the group to the promised land of employment, he asked them to wait outside a factory while he went in. They were waiting yet at night-fall when it was learned that he went in one door and out at another. There is another type also, but these are generally just plain hustlers. There is the billiard sharp, the card sharp, the plain trickster betting on sure-fire things, the "strap man," who bets you you can't stick a nail in the center of a belt he manages to pull from around the nail without getting it caught, and others too numerous to dwell on at length. And for every con man at large, there are thousands of suckers. One wonders how people of good sense fall for the racket, but the educated and the uneducated get nipped. In fact, the con men say that the educated fall the hardest, and give as their reason for saying so that educated folks are always looking for something for nothing.

These two writings show two pictures that are so far apart that there is no chance for permanent happiness for these two young people in a home together. They may be lasting friends but if they marry they will never understand each other and if they do not understand each other then they cannot have happiness in thought and task. You may have a lover whose nature you do not understand or you may be planning to marry but are fearful of what the future may hold.

GENUINE PHILLIPS MILK OF MAGNESIA For Troubles due to Acid INDIGESTION ACID STOMACH HEARTBURN MEADACHE GASES·NAUSEA Of course, this young lady had been fortunate in having an opportunity to display her talents, yet, it is also true that Gladys Black has to meet the test of the highest standards in order to hold her job. Situated as she is, the spotlight is always upon her and she is well aware that, should her firm fail to please the buyers, she would quickly be replaced. However, the firm thinks so highly of her work that samples were sent to Berlin for display in the foreign shops. The story of Gladys Black is typical of those instances in which the Negro has made good, according to the most exacting standards. Their talent and ability is recognized but they are regarded as "altogether different." But even that attitude has its advantages. It is an opening wedge. The next step is for the employer to realize that one's ability is not governed by one's race. Then the situation will be, in truth, "altogether different." "Milk of Magnesia" has been the U. S.

The Thirteen Most Interesting Negroes in the United States (Continued from Page Two) together from the middle of December, 1917, to the middle of January, when we were shipped to Camp Upton. Having h.d a little military training previously to being inducted into the army, I was acting sergeant of the Negro detachment at Camp Devens when Rainey swaggered, that cold afternoon into the cramped, boxlike orderly room. I took up the pink card and prepared to enter his record upon it. His name? "Julian D. Rainey," he sang, in a deep bass, and watched the effect upon me. But I had never heard it before. He added impressively: "Julian D. Rainey, Esquire, I should have said. I'm an attorney. I'm a graduate of the Suffolk Law—" "I'll ask for educational qualifications later," I told him, and thought it well to tel him also that he was NOT Julian D. Rainey, Esquire, but Private Julian Rainey, National Army, U.S.A. During the course of my writing down the information he gave me, he volunteered that he had just come from a visit to Brigadier General Weigel. General Weigel was the camp commander. I regarded Rainey quizzically. Here was a man who had not yet been sworn in but who had already been calling on the general! Why had he done that? "Well, you see. I'm pretty strong politically in Boston. And with my academic training, and all that, I thought I might as well get the best that this man's army had to offer." "Oh, I see. What did you expect the general to give you?" "Didn't expect him to give me anything; wanted him to help me get into the officers' training camp here." I, too, had hoped to get into the officers' training camp, and resented this upstart's avoidance of all military channels to attain the same difficult end. "How'd YOU get to see the general?" I asked, hoping he did not notice the enviousness in my voice. "Oh, I had a letter of introduction from Governor McCall." The airy nonchalance! He fished a cigarette from his pocket, and lighted it. "No smoking in here!" I snapped. His colossal ego irritated me. He has irritated me on occasion ever since. For it was he who got Al Smith as near the White House as Al will probably ever get. It was Julian David Rainey who elected Curley in Boston. It is he who is really the power behind the Curley throne. It is he who advises his honor in all matters involving nice legal judgment. And it will be he who will put James Michael Curley into the governor's chair. I suspect that he has secret plans for making Curley President He has not said so, yet. When I first knew George Schuyler, thirteen years ago, at the officers' training camp at Des Moines, I was unaware that his middle name was Sam. Not that it matters. It has nothing, really, to do with the story I am telling about him, except that the fact now seems funny. I don't know why it seems funny that George S. Schuyler's middle name should be Sam. Anyway, he interested me from the first, and for two reasons: he used to boast about being the blackest man in the Twelfth Company (and he was) and he was not only CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS BANKRUPT AND BARGAIN SALES - Big Profits.

ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION—May 3, 1930 for a reason, I think it was because of his adolescent cynicism. After the war, I heard of him again, now one of the editors of the Messenger. Most of the cynicism had been pounded out of him by ruthless experience, and that which had replaced it was, to me, far preferable. I refer to his mellowed humor and the keen cutting edge of his satirical criticism. Never a profound thinker, Schuyler has been interesting to me because of his ability to adapt to his own uses the ideas of others. He is a close and accurate observer, and certainly one of the most effective antidotes in Aframerica for self-sufficient and inflated complacency. A thoroughly interesting chap. As I said elsewhere some time ago, William Monroe Trotter is an A.M. from Harvard, but succeeds in hiding that fact in what he writes. It is not what Mr. Trotter writes, however, that renders him interesting, but altogether what he does. More than any other Negro in the United States, William Monroe Trotter has agitated and fought for complete Negro freedom. As national corresponding secretary of the National Equal Rights League, he has sent out thousands of protests, to Presidents and Governers, to Senators and Representatives,—to everybody in authority whose voice might profitably be raised in some Negro's behalf. Mr. Trotter is one of those persons who will have to die before they can command appreciation. He gives himself completely to the cause of Negro rights, yet is looked upon with rungled humor and scorn by most of Boston's colored population. These people are unconcerned save in so far as injustice touches them personally; indifferent about those invaluable things for which Trotter has slaved and suffered until he is How do the Stars care for their hair Lovely hair, even on the stars of the stage and screen, is rarely natural.
