Mob in N. C. Swings Negro, Riddles Him with 200 Shots Deputy Recognizes Nobody!
Takes Prisoner from Jail By Ruse Governor Promises Punishment
TARBORO, N. C.—Oliver Moore, 29-year-old Negro tenant farmer accused of attacking his landlord's two small daughters, was dragged from the Edgecombe County jail. by a mob early today, swung from a tree by a rope under his ampits and shot to death.
A coroner's jury, called from Wilson County, in which the body was found, recessed without reaching a verdict. It will be resumed when the sheriffs of both counties have completed their investigations.
An examination by V. C. Martin. Wilson County coroner, and Dr. J. E. L. Thomas, Edgecombe County coroner, disclosed that more than 200 shots were fired into the Negro body as it swung from the tree.
Moore's nearest relative, Andrew Moore, a brother, refused to claim the body, and Sheriff W. E. Bardin of Edgecombe County made arrangements to bury it in the Potter's Field.
Deputy R. O. Watson, who was in charge of the jail last night, said the mob leaders gained admittance by pretending they had brought a prisoner. Once inside, they forced the deputy to surrender. Moore and dragged him outside to an automobile.
Watson said most of the mob wore masks and that he recognized no one. He said the license tags had been removed from their automobiles.

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. --- Dr. Walter Simons, former president of the German Republic and chief justice of the German Supreme Court, in addressing the Institute of Politics today, declared that the argument that the United States has an implied American countries, and hence has mandate over Caribbean and South a right to intervene in their internal affairs, is an extremely dangerous one. It were quite impossible, the speaker, who was also the German minister of foreign affairs from 1950-1921, asserted, to say that the United States had any kind of a mandate; as a mandate is a variety of trusteeship over an area and is conferred by some international authority, whereas the United States of its own accord has pronounced the Monroe Doctrine and has on its own responsibility emarked on its polity of intervention in the Caribbean.
"If the United States can say it has an implied mandate over the South American and Central American countries, then," he declared, "by analogy there, is no reason why Japan, the strongest power among the other weak nations of the Pacific, should not have an implied mandate over the Asiatic coast."
Continuing, Dr. Simons maintained that, whatever the attitude of the people of the United States might be toward the information exercised by their government in the internal political affairs of the countries to the south of us, "to Europe it appears

Drought Bares Sword In Mud of Mississippi
BATON ROUGE, La. Aug. 19.
—A gold-hilted sword engraved "Jos. W. Morton" and strapped to a skoelion found on the bottom of the Mississippi River opposite this city today started historians searching their reference books.
They believed it was the remains of an officer of Admiral Farragut's forces that captured Baton Rogue in 1862. The discovery was made possible by the low.state of the river, as normally the spot would be covered by twenty feet of water.

American Race Prejudice and Humiliation Make Him Renounce U.S.
NEW YORK.—Roland Hayes, noted race tenor, waved a farewell to New York and America last Friday when he sailed for France on the Ile de France S. S. Mr. Hayes is to become a naturalized citizen of France. In a talk with newspaper men he says:
"I have determined to become a citizen of France and will make Paris my permanent place of abode," Hayes is reported saying.
"American race prejudice and the indignities and humiliations to which I have been subjected while touring the concert stage of my native land, have led me to make a decision to become a citizen of a country where ability, not color of skin determines a man's recognition and position. My present visit to the United States is for business reasons and that alone; nothing else would bring me back here."
During his tour as a concert artist in the United States after having gained universal acclaim as a talented artist, and having been accorded all honors by the cities of this country, Hayes was many times denied accommodation at the leading hotels in the principal American cities, and was subjected to other humiliations. It is believed that these experiences have so omitted him against the prejudice of his own country that he has resolved to abandon America for France.
A similar decision is said to have been made by Paul Robeson, noted singer and actor, who is reported as having applied for citizenship in England, where his interpretation of Shakespeare's "Othello" has proved a sensation in the English theatre.
CHICAGO—From 1900 on, he labored prodigiously in behalf of the political recognition of his race. Although he permitted no man to get close to his self, he took some men and made them. Most of the present-day political leaders in Chicago owe their position to the daring strategy exercised by Wright, in their behalf. He was the "Old Master." Some men hated him because of the harshness of his leadership, but no man ever questioned his sincerity or his honesty. The years from 1900 to 1915 were filled with his attempts to place his race. Then in 1815, William Hale Thompson was in office mayor, Wright had supported him, and, as a result, respected the reward of his services. He again flashed brilliantly, as a corporation counsel, traction expert, and finally as the first Negro to serve on the Illinois Commerce Commission, a position he filled with similar credit.
He broke with Thompson in 1927. At the same time his health failed. He was never able to come back. His last years, therefore, were open what of an attackmax to his career. But even in the days of his falling star he could proudly and trifinally point about him to men who were carrying on in the ways that he had planned. However, he passed away a mystery. Who was his mother? Father? Grandad. How old? His sister. ...

Nothing Easier Than Fault-Finding Grumbling Business Requires No Character, No Self-sacrifice
Many a Good and Grand Proposition Has Fallen Through Because of this Kind of Criticism, and Many a Good Man Has Suffered
In the Greater World of Thought and Higher Walks of Civilization. The More Intelligent People Pay Very Little Attention to Criticism, But Form Their Own Opinions — Such Men Are Far Above the Critic
FELLOWMEN OF THE NEGRO RACE, Greeting:
There are some people in the world who make it their business to criticise and grumble over the work of others. They of themselves are capable of doing nothing, but so as to be regarded as somebody, they always attempt to criticise the effort of others to do good. Many a good and grand proposition has fallen through because of this kind of criticism, and in that way many a good man has suffered because his opportunity was taken away from him through the grumblers and critics around.
The Grumblers
Among us Negroes, there is a free tendency to criticise, anything attempted among ourselves, thus, it becomes difficult for Negro movements to immediately succeed, and so the race is generally kept back because of its own fault. In America, we have hundreds of Negro Organizations that are handicapped because of the unreasonable and unfair criticism levied at them by other people, who of themselves have never been capable of originating or initiating anything.
In the West Indies, and Africa, we are also undergoing a similar experience: The only difference is, that in addition to the Negro criticising himself, we have people here who do not classify themselves as Negroes; but who take it as a delight to obstruct anything that would tend to alleviate the condition of the Negro; they search out every little Negro inary loophole upon 'which' to base their conslaught and criticism. This has resulted in a handicap that the Negro ought to seriously see and understand.
No Good to Anybody
The people who criticise most, are the most evil of our community and our civilization, because they mean no good to anybody, and their criticism calls for very little effort. It was Robert West who said: "Nothing is easier than fault-finding; no talent, no self-denial, no brains, no character are required to set up in the grumbling business."
We have before our minds, certain newspaper editors whose stock in trade is criticism of other people's works and efforts, yet lubbing them as we do, we can trace no single act of usefulness to their career, outside of grumbling and finding fault with everybody. They have never constructed anything, independently. Whatsoever success they have met with, has always been due to the good graces and gifts of others, yet the criticism of these individuals affect the community, and bear down upon the free action of large numbers of people, who otherwise would have been willing to help themselves. The public must know that the critic is not always the best friend to rely on. Most of the time he criticises from selfish and personal motives. The unfortunate thing is, that he has a medium of criticism, which he generally inflicts upon the public, because the public must come in contact with it.

In the greater world of thought,
and in the higher walks of civilization,
the more intelligent people pay
very little attention to criticism,
but form their own opinion. We do hope
that the time will come when the
Nexus will be able to form his own

WASHINGTON—Mrs. Emily Newell Blair of Missouri, who for several years was vice president of the Democratic National Committee and a leading suffragist of her state, is disappointed in the results of woman suffrage. Women in politics have failed to measure up, she declared. "Frankly," she said, "I am discouraged. I am afraid the suffragists have made the same mistakes that the temperance group like. Both thought that with their victory they had only to defend their positions; and so just as the Women's Christian Temperance Union stepped its agricultural arms into the battle, they were victorious.

struction. Again we state, that it is easy to criticise, but it is hard to build and construct. Very often the man who is criticised in far above the man who criticises him; because if he did not attempt to do something he would not be criticised. The critic can be classified as a kind of iconoclast, one who doesn't build; but who breaks, does droop. When great good is to be trolled of and remembered, generally, it will not be of the critic, but the man who tried and who probably was often criticised.
The Negro must learn to differentiate between harmful and destructive criticism, and the honest and honorable effort to do something good for goodness' sake. With very best wishes, I have the honor to be.

Best Air Pilots Earn About $550 a Month
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—Average wages now being earned by airplane pilots of the highest capability class range around $500 per month.
The aeronautic branch of the Department of Commerce acertained the flight pay as a result of a survey of payrolls of air mail and passenger carrying enterprises for the first six months of 1930 and the least half of 1929. The pilots in this service are holders of the highest class of license, obtained only after much experience and training. In almost all cases earnings of such pilots are based upon mileage flown.
Egyptian King Planning Coup D'Etat—Rumor
LONDON. — King Fuad of Egypt and Premier Sidky Pasha were said in an article contributed to the Daily Mail today to be planning a coup 'detat that would make Fuad an absolute monarch with a restricted Parliament.
The King and the Premier, according to the writer, have drafted a completely new constitution, which the King is to sign on Tuesday. The constitution will be operative immediately and entail the dissolution of the present Parliament with its heavy Wafidt majority.
The plan is said to include drastic revision of the Egyptian electoral law. Two-thirds of Parliament would be chosen on a modified democratic principle, based on the view that universal suffrage is not suitable for a country almost wholly illiterate.
The other third would be chosen by the government. Under the government of Premier Sidky Pasha, bitterly opposed by the Wafd, this third would really be chosen by King Pand himself. Incidentally, the number of deputies would be reduced from 240 to 100.
The writer in the Daily Mail says that the most remarkable feature of this renational plan is that the British government, though it must be fully informed of the proposed changes, is ignoring them on the grounds that they do not concern Great Britain.
Heart Resists, Brain Recuperates, Energy Regulates, Thoughts Rebuild and Diseases Cured.
Sleep is the period of growth for both animal and plant life, and that period must be treatful if man is to enjoy good health, said Dr. Thomas Darlington in broadcasting Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wyman's weekly health talk this afternoon over Station WEAF. As guest speaker, former Commissioner Darlington spoke on "Sleep and Noise" painting out that the marked increase in street and city noises in the last quarter century had so seriously interfered with the sleep of city dwellers that it not only can be blamed for many diseases, and has caused thousands to become neurotics, but actually has aided in the spread of narcotic addiction.
"from the time of Aristotle, who lived more, than 300 years before Christ, up to the present day," said Dr. Darlington, "many persons have tried to explain just what sleep is, but no one as yet has solved the mystery." We do know from those who have studied how the body works, something of what happens when we sleep. We become unconscious. We breathe more slowly and deeply. The heart beats more slowly and the pressure of the blood falls. The amount of the blood in the brain is lessened, while the amount is increased in the arms and the legs. The temperature of the body falls slightly. The skin contains more blood and, though the secretion of the sweat glands is decreased, possibly the concentration of sweat on the skin remains.
But Co.'s Official Dealer It-Says It's Repugnant to Emperor
GENEVA.—Protests have been received by the "League of Nations against certain conditions said to be attached to a concession held by the J. G. White Engineering Corporation of New York for the construction of public works, in Abyssinia. According to the protests, the construction of these works by the American company will involve the use of slave labor.
The protests have come from the British Anti-Slaver Society of London; the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, Geneva, and individuals.
The communications note that the United States is a party to the anti-slavery convention concluded under league auspices. They recall also that the Washington government in approving the convention made a declaration which went further than the terms of the treaty itself in taking a positive stand against slavery and forced labor.
The matter also is understood to have been brought to the attention of the State Department at Washington by one or more of the objecting parties.
Abyssinia has signed, but not ratified, the anti-slavery convention.
Gano Dunn, president of the J. G. White Corporation, yesterday disclosed any intention of employing slave labor in Ethiopia, imputed to the company in reports to the League of Nations.
Mr. Dunn's formal statement follows:

The government has appointed another commission, this time on "Native Rural and Industrial Conditions" in a few months time the commissioner, as hard-hitten a set of heyday reactionaries as it is possible to find, will set about their hard "tush" of collecting "factions." This will result no doubt in another bulky term in adorn the shelves of the archives together with all the other volumes, including that produced by the economic and wages commission in 1981.
Perhaps the commission will discover some method of making native labor cheaper and more "fudl" is a more exploitable, probably by increasing native taxation, cutting down the reservoir, stiffening up the pass laws, imposing a special tax on natives who fail to work for a white bea, "improving" the master and servants act by allowing lashes to be given to offenders, etc., etc.
We do not advise anyone, to give evidence before the commission. Everybody knows the facts. The commission has not been set up to help natives but to help white employers. Evict the commission. Demand the abolition of the land act, pass laws, master and servant act, and all the other slave laws! To hell with this prison investigation commission—as it should rightly be called. The object of the investigation, is not to free the prisoners or make their lot more bearable, but to beef the chains, locks and boots and overhaul the guns and tear homer of the warders.

University Hall, 2067 Eighth Avenue, New York City, August 24, 1930. Explains the inclementity of the weather conditions, there was a fine turnout, of members and wellwishers of the Universal, Negro Improvement association at the Garvey Club Inc. after the ritualistic services, a very short but interesting musical programme was rendered by choir and band, which brought inspiration and cheer to the breasts of the audience.
Miss Grace Culmer rendered a solemn, solo which was very much appreciated. At the close of this the President-General's message was read, followed by the singing of "God Bless Our President." The chairman, W. F. Rivera, then read the announcements, and exhorted the friends to give every cooperation to coming Convention Parade that will be staged under the auspices of the *Garvey Club Inc*. On Sunday, August 31st, at which time all the Parent Body officials will be present, and all divisions near and around New York will take part. The invitation is to all. He further exhorted his hearers to stop cherishing jealousy and hatred among each other and work one with the other for the best of the organization.
St. Arthur Butts, of the Aviation Corps appealed for more service among ourselves. The field of aviation is open, and the opportunity is ours to seize and make new history as a people.
Mr. J. Handley reminded us that there was much work to be done. He had made up his mind in the past to work as a faithful worker in the cause of Africa, and for that reason the new branch know as "The Field of New Thought" was created by him for the interest of the Association.

Mr. Chastman, Officer, Legions, Black Croc Nurses, Chair Members and Friends of the Garvey Club. I bring you greetings from the West, where we had a mighty demonstration parade, celebrating the birthday of the great Negro leader the world over, and that is no other person but Hon. Marcus Garvey. The city of Cincinnati was very nicely decorated with the stars and stripes. We had in that-parade mounted cavalry, black cross ambulance, boats, banners and placards. On the many placards were signs expressing the alms and desires of the people, asking that Marcus Garvey, be allowed to return to America, some showing in cartoons the destiny of the black man at the stake, some showing where the aliens must be chased out of Africa. Many new members were gained thus swelling the ranks of the division. It was pleasing to see the cooperative spirit that was shown, as the members from Springfield, Dayton, and all in Ohio assembled, and made a successful showing to the community, thus removing from the minds of those who had thought that Garveyism had taken a holiday.
Tonight I want to encourage you to do that which is right. Hold on to the spirit and urge of a Redeemed Africa. Let us get ready for the great convention of August, 1931, and work with might and main' for that objective. There is much in store for the black man. The visit of the Royal Prince, to Hon. Marcuss Garvey at Edwidela Park is very much in evidence, yet the purposes have not been known nor divulged. Jamaica is ablaze with the spirit of the age, and the visit of the Royal Princes of Ethiopia, and so let us from across the seas tonight, register our desires to carry on successfully this work in which we are engaged.
The West is united, and we of the East must combine our forces and work together for the best interest of the program and ourselves and generation to come. Next Sunday will be the celebration of the Convention Parade in this city, and we hope that everybody will turn out at 10 A. M. sharp to take part in the divine services and Monster Parade at 1 P. M. Special speakers will address us at the 3 P. M. Mass Meeting. At 8:30 P. M. I will speak at the Garvey Club Hall along with others, and we are asking the cooperation of one and all. The 31st day of August to the Universal Negro Improvement Association is very unique in its history, as the closing day and the time that the Executive officers are officially presented to the world and the peoples.
Rev. C. P. Green
Mr. Chairman, Othellen, Member and Friends. It is time that the black man and woman begin to know themselves. I would to God that our men in America would be like the men abroad. The peace conference prison will mean nothing to his peo that Mahatma Gandhi is holding in place if he signs anything else but true independence. His people are determined to have not nothing less than independence, and even if he signs anything else but that, they will get themselves another leader, and continue their determination to free themselves as a people and a nation. We-an a race of people want to get the right thing to ourselves and for some of that determination and do ourselves. We too are seeking freedom for the four hundred million Negroes of the world, and it is our duty to work unmissingly night and day toward that end.
The meeting was brought 'to a close by Rev. Green pronouncing the benediction, and the playing of the "Stars and Stripes", and the "Ethiopian National Anthem" at 11:20 P. M. E. M. COLLINS.

ALBANY. — There are 452,078 dogs in New York State outside of New York City, accounting to a count just finished by the State Department of Agriculture and Markets. The total marks a distance outside of the metropolitan area as compared with the 1939 census, which showed a total of 461,240 dogs.
Until 1930 dogs in the state have increased almost annually since 1926, when there were 253,409 dogs outside of New York City.
Tribune Paris Edition Upholds Negro Heroism
PARIS—The Paris edition of the New York Herald-Tribune has come out editorially to silence the villainous attacks of certain American whites who are trying to vilify the Negroes and deny the heroism they showed during the World War. Says the Tribune:
"The first soldier of the A. E. F. to receive the croix de guerre with star and palm was Sergeant: Henry Johnson, of the 15th regiment, N. G. N. Y. That entire regiment, composed of Negroes, was cited for exceptional valor in action during the Meuse-Argonne offensive, and its colors were decorated with the croix de guerre. It was under shellfire for 191 days and it held one trench for ninety-one days without relief.
America is proud of her Negro soldiers. The same 15th regiment, became the 360th infantry, was the first body of troops to pass under the Victory Arch at Madison Squarre. New York, after the war was over. And New York welcomed the Negro gold star mothers, from whatever region they came, and eped them with sympathetic plaudits on their way to the graves of their Heroic loved ones. They gave their sons to their country with no less profound a patriotism than other mothers, and America, is, glad to recognize, their devotion and to swell the grateful tribute that is due to those whom they mourn."
The New Organization
It is gratifying to be among the observers of any particular thing you are interested in. By listening to the comments made you can gain a far more comprehensive idea of the respect in which this thing is held. So it was last Sunday. (As an observer I heard compliments of the Universal Negro Improvement Association from sources one would least expect. The unity and harmonious relations that apparently existed between the different divisions was the chief topic of a complimentary nature. Which only goes to prove, that harmony within the Association pays large dividends. When we become broad enough to eliminate the two most destructive factors in any organization, suspicion and jealousy, then, and only then, will we begin to climb the upward grade of public approval. When healthful competition is induced in between divisions, it is one of the inert forms of self-building of the organization. But when we allow the elements of suspicion and jealousy to creep in, then we are simply reverting back to the centuries old, teaching of the white man.
I heard this comment: "Say, I thought you told me that these different Garvey divisions were fighting each other, and never worked together?"
"That's what. I heard," the second voice said. "But this doesn't like it."
"What are they trying to do, take all the Negroes to Africa?"
"Some damned fool idea like that. I don't know anything about it, only what I've heard."
It was now my aim to take part in the discussion. And from generalities I led the discussion down to the fundamental principles of Garveyism. I consider it the duty of every Garveyite to present the principles of the U. N. I. A. in its most simple form whenever and wherever possible. It does not take a heated debate to bring this forth, but it does, in most instances, take fact. Individuals, like divisions, to function best must be able to present the principles in the most concise and sensible manner in order to gain the desired effect. When such an individual is incapable, of performing this duty, then he or she are not true Garveyites. For, in my opinion, one must know the principles they profess.
Today, divisions are becoming more cohesive for the simple reason that they are becoming more educated in the principles of Marcus Garvey. I have said and still maintain, that no matter what line of work a person performs, they must be educated in that particular line at least. This movement demands what some of us have failed thus far to realize—study, hard conscious study. When we have mastered the true principles of the movement, internal friction will become non-existent, and external enemies be less easily created. The sage who wrote "A Little Learning in Dangerous," could have applied to the U. N. I. A. as well as to other vocations or activities, for in this instance it is not only dangerous, but deadly to the achievement of the organization.
In chap. 1, I write my drive on divisions of New York and vigorously in this new spirit you have abolished recently, and no matter what arises, don't regard to the old summer law standard; fly in, in that, dreadless heath death if your every hope, dwindles and succumbs.
for Year of Leaving Belfast
American College
PARIS, France—Some here in the
old continent of Europe, which in
three thousand years of its history
has known no color line, the weight
of the American dollar and prejudice
have made themselves felt against
the colored War Mothers.
Hotel after hotel refused to take them, fearful of offending their Irish American white clientele. Finally, one in a much less desirable section of Paris, much less comfortable than where the white mothers stayed, was found. This hotel is patronized by middle-class Europeans, with occasional Americans.
For these rooms, the Journal and Guide representative found out, 100 francs were paid, equivalent to a $6.50 room in America. The Ambassador first agreed to take the cologed mothers, but finally changed its mind.
Hampton Party Has Some Trouble While the big hotels will take one or two occasional tourists, they will not take colored parties because of the objections of their American clientele. Last year the Hampton tour party, which was much smaller, and was seeking accommodation much less pretentious than the Imperator, had considerably difficulty in getting located, because the hotel-keepers were afraid that they would lose their white American patrons.
Outside of Paris, however, the reporter was informed that the colored women have, stopped at the same hotels as the white ones. The same holds true as to restaurants in Paris, and everything else such as sightseeing. The reception and tea at which Ambassador Edge was present, was held at the Restaurant Laurent, which is very near to the palace, of the President of France. This restaurant made no objection to receiving colored women; besides it was under contract.
Paris is the only city in Continental Europe in which one finds color prejudice and that is because of the crowds of Americans there, especially during the tourist season. The French people themselves will not refuse Negroes on account of color but the hotel-keepers consider their American clientele, and are said have a right to refuse whomsoever they wish—the idea being to keep out undesirable persons. When this privilege was granted to them the question of color had not then arisen. The sentiment of the Europeans, however, is against color discrimination.
With the hotel-keepers it is a matter of money, and if the Negro mothers were so many millionaires, spending a lot of money for deux apartments and champaign, it is safe to say that they would not be refused.
MORE MOTHERS TO SHARE
GLORY
NEW YORK, N. Y.—With the arrival this week of the first contingent of colored Gold Star Mothers from their pilgrimage to the graves of their dead sons in France, preparations went forward for the selling of the second group on August 16.
Fifty-four mothers have announced their intention to join the second group, according to representatives of the War Department. Mothers of the first group, rather royally entertained by the French and colored Americans in Paris, were scheduled to return here Tuesday on board of the freight steamer, American Merchant, on which they also called some weeks ago.
The same inferior ship will be used to take the second group, which, like the first, will be under the military escortage of Col. B. C. Davis, running Negro army officer. Several informal affairs were tendered the second group of, women in Harlem this week.
STATESVILLE, N. C.—Because he is as a respected slavery-time Negro, Richard Wood was able to set a precedent here, but it as an achievement he will have to be informed about by the Recording Angel "up above."
Wood's funeral was held in the $200,000 First Presbyterian Church, which is white, after white residents offered the use of the church to his family upon hearing of "Uncle Richard's" death.
When "the congregation of the church was soliciting subscriptions for the new church, Wood was among the first to contribute and to pay his pledge in full. However, he never worshipped at the church he helped build, and in which he was paid a final tribute.
Men's suits haven't changed much since last year except that some of them look a year older.

WILLIAMSON, Vol. II—Tenn. Missouri, president of the Association Technology Institute in Washington, D.C., chairman of the annual session of trade and vocational education before the National Association of Teachers in Cincinnati, N.Y., at Palmerburg, recently said:
"The teaching of Greek and Latin in the United States is continued to the colored schools of the fourth.
"While colored children are trying to learn how Caucasus habit his bridges, white children are learning to build bridges of their own, of which Caucasus had no conception."
He urged the importance of modern equipment in vocational schools to keep pace with the maturity of present day interests, and urged that expert mechanics able to correlate related subject matter were more suitable as teachers in vocational schools, than merely college graduates with degrees with which to satisfy the vanity of the school as an adornment, on the pages of its catalogue.
He urged that intelligent students be directed to vocational courses, rather than to make these courses for the academically unfit.
Negro Cop Promoted By Police Commissioner
Louis Chisholm of the 32nd° Precinct was among the 33 policemen promoted by Commissioner Edward P. Mulrooney to sergeancies last week. Sergeant Chisholm is the second colored man to reach this ranking in the New York Police Department, the other being Sergeant Samuel J. Battles, who was promoted by George V. McLaughlin five years ago. Sergeant Chisholm has been a policeman in New York for the past nine years. He took the Civil Service examination for sergeant two years ago and passed with one of the highest marks. His name was on the eligible list for more than a year. The new sergeant is a native of Savannah, Ga., but came to New York with his mother, Mrs. Bertha Pennington, as a youth. He attended the public and high schools of this city, winning popularity at school both as a student and athlete. He is married and is the father of two children.
While Sergeant Battle is assigned to the Detective, Division of the 32nd Precinct and does not appear in uniform, the new sergeant has already assumed the regular duties of a uniformed officer at the 32nd Precinct. Standing over 6 feet and of slender build, he makes a fine picture in uniform.
Who Counts Fish?
SACRAMENTO.—It was a banner year in more ways than one for California's census, this season.
For instance, the fish population of the state was increased by 43,800,600 since the first of the year.
A dressmaker's work is merely a matter of form.
This from a Greater candidate for Governor from the Independent Democratic.
MISSISSIPH. Team—L. E. Gwinn candidate for Governor, has hired Governor Horton, who is a candidate for re-election, to throw out all ballot boxes that contain votes past by Nerges in the coming Democratic primary.
Gwinn states that the Democratic primary belongs to the white folks and that Negroes should not be allowed to participate therein. "A decent consideration," said Gwinn, "for the white Democrat of Tennessee requires that participation in the primary be limited to white Democrats. Every man in Tennessee above the intelligence of a half wit knows that a Negro Democrat is about as scarce as a hen's tooth and unless the Democrats 'of Tennessee have abandoned the fundamental principal of the South of white supremacy—the keynote of Democracy in the South—they will join in the demand that the content between Governor Horton and myself be decided by white Democrats of Tennessee.
"The Democracists of Tennessee have become yellow when they allow a Negro vote to decide the issues in a Democratic primary. I am a native of Tennessee and a loyal son of the South. White supremacy is the fundamental of my political creed and I would scorn to accept the Democratic nomination unless it came to me as the result of the white Democracists."
Gwinn pointed out that he had heard that Negroes would be permitted to vote in the primary and that in view of this report urged the governor that Negroes be barred from participation; that, if they be permitted to vote that their votes be thrown out and that every precaution be taken to prevent any of them from voting.
Feas Is New Leader
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 14. (ANP) With the election of Senator Simeon D. Fess, of Ohio, as chairman of the Republican National Committee, leaders of the party hope that inactivity in matters affecting the Negro group will be terminated. Under the leadership of Claudius Huston, who recently resigned the chairmanship, little of nothing has been done for the Negro Republicans in any section of the country and nothing has been done to clarify the muddled condition of G. O. P. affairs in southern states, particularly Georgia and Mississippi, where it is alleged a program has been formulated to build up a "white man's party." A wise girl look well to her heart before she fishes for compliments.
African Healer
Reaches Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 14. - Interesting meetings are being held in this city with Prof. Umo-Eka, a native of East Africa, who arrived a few days ago. He is said to be a graduate of the best schools of Europe and a believer in the occult sciences of the east. Miraculous cures are attributed to him, although he uses no medicines and does not believe in surgery.

States, people and currently have not aware of not going to be here. How will the Negroes of self-protection?
HELLS BELLS are now ringing in Indiana and North Carolina. The lynchers got two Negroes, and the law is trying to get the third. While we uphold law and its just duty to apprehend and punish any Negro who has been guilty of a conduct that shames both the Negro and humanity, we cannot help but strongly condemn it for not taking equally strong measures to apprehend and punish those members of the white mob that is increasingly becoming blood thirsty in these United States, in this year of grace, 1930.
The United States is a country where record-breaking is very popular. And it seems that the South and even parts of the North are trying to break the JYNCHING.RECORD for all the time. The way the lynch fury is spreading; the Negro captor look to homelife future with any sense of either security or optimism; for Indiana, supposed to be a "Northern" State and North Carolina where, it is said, there were no lynchings since 1921, have committed gross atrocities during the last week.
The chief executives of the States have dared to denounce lynching, no doubt, but it spins they can go no further. They have not taken any effective measures to check this rising fury in their States. The local authorities are still more callous and even show tendencies of condoning, if not deliberately encouraging, this madness of the mob, formed by men of "pure, white, Nordic blood," as if the flowing of this blood does them any credit when their conduct is so savage.
In Marion, Indiana, the officers of the law stood by while the mob carried out its threats. The local authorities could not use any weapons to protect their prisoners but ineffective fire-foxes, while the members of the mob kept or brandishing their guns. We wonder if these white guardians of the law would behave in such an "excessary" manner if a similar crowd of Negroes were to defy their authority and that two with threats of guns.
In Taquhoro, North Carolina, the conduct of the sheriff and his staff was still worse. The deputy sheriff is reported to have said that the "mob leaders gained admittance by pretending they had brought a prisoner." And once they had an entrance they did their ghastly work by overpowering the "officers of the law."
But when it came to apprehending the culprits the deputy sheriff declares that he did not recognize anybody since "mind of the mob were mules." It is strange that an officer of the law should hide himself behind such a filthy excuse. Did he not suspect that the mob leglers were up to a dirty trick when they played a "ruse"? They must have been wearing masks then. Why did he allow them inside the prison? And what beating goes on of the mob to bring "persons" to the sheriff?
But protestors remain and currently have not shown of avail in the past and are not going to be now. How will the Negro police retaliate and measures of self-protection?
BY the Llandebeth Conference of Anglican Bishops limited birth control, by a vote of 193 to 67. That is such an extremely orthodox body of man, their problems are forcing up in 51 nations and the necessity of birth control. All intelligible accepting it nowadays as the only way out of so many births and too many deaths." The man that you cannot bring up three children on an a world, well or one child out of mind, finally but unbiddable parents stop and rebirth control. The fact that so many members and diocese were practicing it forced the Anglican the acceptance of birth control.
One that they still "retained" Christing principle (one meaning is practice of abstinence), a birth control practiced for selfish envenience." The exception taken to is worth the advocates of birth control, if simply to be as so as to appeal to the personal and national beneficent practice.
Control is an instrument, and like any other it doubles-edged. Like every other instrument it for evil. It is entirely possible that some persons luxury or mere convenience," but if the is widespread as it should be, we are sure that infinitesimal minority. Simply because some fair to withhold the benefits of birth control from need it. We must not forget that even religions being misused by even high church authorities we should suppress religion.
the people the Negro masses are in great need their economic conditions do not allow them the either so many births or deaths, especially when cost of death nowadays. Negro leaders should advocate birth control, not for the benefit who are the ones who might misuse it, but for so doing they will have solved at least half of it us.
ECENTLY the Laudath Conference of Anglican Bishops came out for modified birth control, by a vote of 193 to 67. That's establishing a record for such an extremely orthodox history of men.
The modern problems are forcing up 50 million and religions the wisdom and necessity of birth control. All intelligent men and women are accepting it nowadays as the only way out of the vicious circle of "too many births good too many deaths." The more economic argument that you cannot bring up three children on an income of, let us say, $50 a woman, well or one child ought to remain—the ordinarily good-hearted, kindly but unkindling parents sign and reconsider the value of Birth Control. The fact that so many monologues of their congregations and diocese were practicing it forced the Anglican Bishops to accept the acceptance of birth control.
I true that they still "retained" Christian principle, whatever that may mean (one meaning is practice of absinence), and that they condemned birth control practiced for inbodies of selfishness, luxury or there convenience." The exception taken to is worth taking note of even by the advocates of birth control, if simply to prepare their propaganda so as to appeal to the personal and national benefits derived by its intelligent practice.
Birth control is an instrument, and like any other instrument or weapon is double-edged. Like every other instrument it may be used for good or for evil. It is entirely possible that same people may use it for "selfishness, luxury or mere convenience," but if the practice of birth control is widespread, as it should be, we are sure that such people would be an infinitesimal minority. Simply because some may misuse it, it is not fair to withhold the benefits of birth control from the masses who sorely need it. We must not forget that even religion has been and is on occasion being misused by even high church authorities, and that does not mean we should suppress religion.
Of all the people the Negro masses are in great need of birth control. Their economic conditions do not allow them the exceptional luxury of either too many births or deaths, especially when we know of the high cost of death nowadays. Negro leaders should come out fearlessly and advocate birth control, not for the benefit of the privileged few, who are the ones who might misuse it, but for the masses at large. By so doing they will have solved at least half of the economic ills that beset us.

THE British government in India is leading an abnormal life, to put it gracefully. It has armed itself to its teeth with all kinds of laws and ordinances and still feels insecure and lives from one moment to another in perpetual alarm. It seems that the British will have to quit India even if the Indians are not "fit" to govern themselves, because of this nervous exhaustion.
The bloodless revolution sponsored by Mahatma Gandhi has spread all over the country. All classes, communities and religions have come forward to the support of the Revolution. Even some of the princes
and their premiers have openly declared their sympathy with the people.
The effect of boycott upon British goods has been very exemplary. Although few dispatches are carried abroad discussing what the English business men in India think of the Government policy, the British newspapers in India are urging on their behalf that the Government should make peace with the Nationalists and allow them to resume their business.
And this pressure has brought the Government to the point where it has opened peace negotiations unofficially, with Mahatma Gandhi and his lieutenants in jail, permitting them to have a secret council. From what little has leaked from the council of the most distinguished prisoners it seems the hopes of peace are very meagre. No assurances of a "substance of independence," nor any concessions are made by or on behalf of the British government. But Gandhi and his colleagues have proffered peace if both Government in India and Great Britain are willing to go on records and put forward as their policy Dominion Status and give amnesty to all political prisoners.
To neutralis. It seems that the Nationalists, considering the strength they have gained, have modified their insistence upon independence beyond all expectations. But it seems the MacDonald government cannot afford to either accept or reject these terms. A labor member has already cursed Mahatma Gandhi for his astute diplomatic move and characterized his terms as "diabolically clever." Of course, the British should be prepared to meet if they can the very unexceptional statesmanship and diplomatic genius of the Indians.
We sympathize with the MacDonald government. It has spoiled its case by hesitancy and by clinging to office-holding. It has let worse despotism in all its nakedness be put in practice in India. It has muddled things to such an extent that the conservatives are threatening to kick it out of office. If the MacDonald Government has to fall let it at least fall on a daring issue, say, of accepting the mild peace terms of Mahatma Gandhi.

Congress displeased
half Mo. Moore
Toronto the cheatter last
We are very much with the defeat of "Vatican Genocide" from the triet at the primary Thursday.
Of course, there were many elements which catered into the race as contributing factors; but in the final analysis, the chief cause we regret to state, in that the Negroes themselves are not ready to take such a forward step. Despite their as-sculted intelligence, it is really surprising to note that so few were able to open and digest the real significance of election to Negro to the United States Congress. Of the common people, we have no complaint. They are the loyal legions of honor. They are those who suffer most because of conditions so they are in this country. The difference between them and some of the so-called intelligent class in they are in a bad condition and know it, while the others are in a bad fix and don't know it. Had Mr. Moore been nominated and elected" not only would every Negro in St. Louis have been benefited directly, but the cause of every Negro in the United States would have been helped as nothing else has done in more than one-half of a century. In this, as in so many other cases, it is hard to understand just why so many people are careless or indifferent so their own interest.
We realize that in all forward movements a backward people must be brought out of "Egypt," despite themselves. Unfortunately, there are many amongst us who are still slaves at heart. There are others whose belly is what God and who would sell their very soul for a mess of "pottage." Such persons never do anything to advance the cause of the race. They see only themselves.
The defeat of Mr. Moore will bring forth a choosie of "I told you so!" If they can find any pleasure in the defeat of a program which means a forward step for the colored people in this country, the pleasure is all theirs, for the "loyal legions" do not share with them.
There are some things we must remember. There are some things we cannot forget. We must remember who betrayed us in a crisis like this when every true and loyal Negro was needed to espouse a great cause, and we must not forget that such persons do not deserve our respect and confidence—The St. Louis Argus.
Poro Quits the South
Nearly two decades ago, the eyes of the country turned toward St. Louis where Mrs. Anna E. Malone, opened a $45,000 factory, Poro College, dedicated to the manufacture of cosmetics.
Last week the factory was moved to Chicago where a block of Grand boulevard homes, which formerly

house. Chicago's millionaires, has been utilized to house a new Poro College.
Business like individuals seeks the metropolitan environment for expansion, for prepares and for exploitation. However, there is more to the moving of Poro College than just house and wise Mrs. Malone, who frank enough to admit it.
After twenty-five years in one house, neither women nor men change headquarters eagerly. Mrs. Malone declares that in Chicago she will be closer to the great built of her customers. There she will be closer to the sources of supply, and shipments will also be expedited.
Business, she says, will grow faster in the commercial atmosphere of Chicago. But finally she makes this most important announcement of all.
"St. Louis is a wonderful city. I love my people in St. Louis. I have tried to serve them. But St. Louis in most of its attitudes in a Southern city my experience would lend me to doubt that Negro businesses can grow to large magnitude in the South without feeling something of a resilient, as well as a certain sense of insecurity."
Negroes have long known that life itself is uncertain and insecure for them in the South. Mrs. Malone calls attention to a startling corollary, which, if true, is bound to affect most vitally the Negro life in the United States.
If Negro business is insecure in St. Louis, it is not also insecure in Nashville or Durham, Atlanta or Birmingham. Hot Springs or New Orleans? Does this existing insecurity, merely prescribe its limits, or does it measure its very existence?
If Negro business is restrained and unsafe in a mob-lusty, prejudice-ridden Dixie, how can schools and churches thrive beyond the bread line? Why should the Negro himself stay there?
If Mrs. Malone, with customary womanly restraint but, with entire frankness is right, then the South has lost not one fine friend but many. The northward migration, of the male workers during the war is a small circumstance compared to what will happen when Negro women become convinced that the South is not safe, and "must be taken to the Lord in prayer."

Kindly allow me space in our paper for the following: Many white historians have written books on the Negro and each one gives us a different story. Some have claimed that the black man represents, an early elementary stage in the process of human development. A certain writer said that Africa is the best known division of the Globe, although a part of it is the cradle of civilization, it is not difficult to visualize Africa in generation to come with the exaltation of its people or among the nations of the earth.
There is one class, however, which holds that the Negro is essentially inferior to the white, and that while they may be able to achieve a certain amount of progress, it can only do so under direct pressure and guidance from the latter, whose intellectual and physical level he will never attain. Another class maintains that the Negro is still subject to the general law of human development, and occupies the same kind of relation to the white race as a child to an adult, and that on account of his unfavorable position in the world's area it has never had a fair opportunity of ascending as he is capable of ultimately doing—to the social plane of the white race.
There are still other writers who have openly said that the black man has given nothing to the world. He has never built a nation; he belongs to nothing but a subject race—he has been only a few decades of slavery in the United States, while he has been for thousands of years in slavery in Asia and Africa. Every one knows that 90 per cent of the whites have never written with any true love for the Negro. Many of them write the worst thing about the Negro as to make the world believe that nature made him a subject race, and a subject he shall remain forever. Many of the white historians seem to forget the past glories of the Ethiopian, Mingy, the Mighty Commander, the Hittites, and the past glory of Egypt. We were not called Negroes then. The Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Hon. Marseus Gatway shall renew our ancient stories.
I will say in conclusion that there is a day that isn't far distant when each colored boy and girl shall remove their hats when called in Garvey's name. We will erect a monument in the republic Garvey made, that will surely put Lord Nelson in the circle.
Christianity Soothes
editor, The Negro World.
Always as this may sound it is nevertheless true that the bad children of an honest people of Democracy are those who are also subjects of a Kingdom. The strangeness vanishes, however, when one finds out the fact that that Kingdom is the Kingdom of Heaven.
Today, as in tine past, missionaries are sent abroad to instruct the so-called heathen in the art of becoming good subjects of that Kingdom. Sad to say, the error still persists that the Kingdom is of necessity a land beyond the sky, in spite of the fact that Jesus plainly said that it is within us.
The matter resolves itself into this—the blind are sending the blind to lead the blind.
Sad it strange that they send missionaries from such places as Texas and other lynching centres where mobs consisting of men, women and children, and women about to become mothers witness such a loathesome ceremony as that which took place recently in Sherman, and gloat over the proceedings.
By all that's reasonable, the sensible thing that should be done would be to endeavor to evangelize the local community by intensive missionary work. Stress should be placed on helping the individual to discover the Kingdom within him, who the ruler is, what the things are that should be ruled, and the result of such a discovery. The successful completion of this task would make the candidates rulers or masters over themselves. They would then be sitting persons to evangelise the world.
Also, when this grand Jest shall have been accustomed, we would have in America at least a few white presachers who would have brotherly love enough to desire and courage enough to dare to denounce the dishainable things called tyranny in a systematic way.
presidents of the United States of America would band themselves together to denounce, lynching from their pulpits for six months, the evil would die a natural death. The church would then be killing two birds with one stone—it would demonstrate the fact that it still has tremendous power, and also restores the confidence of millions who are on the other side of the fence. Wake up White America, your ta-
Wake up White America, your religion going to seed.
An African Girl Student Writes of African Freedom
Editor. The Negro World.
The God who gave us life will give us liberty at the same time, if we keep on fighting.
There is thorough accord and understanding among ourselves here, and none will place any obstacles in his way, and, when it is necessary all will work together for the fulfilment of the great and noble cause of making our country what she ought to be, a great and mighty nation among the nations, of the earth. We shall reap the benefit if we do.
What foundation, of character, of organization, of education are we having? There are many educated Negroes in America, with varieties of degrees, and many of them were in Africa. Yet, they can never achieve or accomplish anything for the progress of human race.
And who are called the children of ignorance? That is you or I are called the children of ignorance. Because the Black Race has never to this day developed transportation beyond this point, remains the lowest in comparative civilization and has never developed sufficient intellect to invent writing, and so has left neither literature nor history nor any record of itself.
We must consider the saying of our Lord Jesus Christ: Ask and you shall receive, seek, and you shall find, knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
The colonists of West Africa are well developed as well as other nations on the earth today, only she has no transportation; armies and navies of her own. In the near future we shall be able to develop to the same.
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori. It is sweet and secure to die for one's fatherland. Now is the opportunity time for every young man to consider himself to do something beneficial for our race and others. All men are created equal. There will be freedom of birthday of every African, when the time comes.
Remember, self-control is the supreme test of will-power, and will power is the most substantial expression of character.
Self-government is not mere form of institutions to be, had when desired; it is a form of character.
Jayce B. T. Washington: "I favor the most thorough mental training and the highest development of mind, but I want to get these linked with the common things of the universal life about us. Every man should memorize himself by his own standard."
Marcus Gorrey's philosophy: "One God, one aim, one destiny, and also Africa Say the Africans." The aspiration of Prof. Aggrey Hinton, African, is an proud of my colour; whatever is not proud of his colour is not fit to live.
Africa will be independent in fifteen years hence, but is not limiting as I said here.
The new African will be able to deal with any civilized nation of the earth diplomatically in order to gain superior ideals from them.
Life without liberty is nothing, life without opportunity and freedom to pursue it would be worse than nothing. Now, our troubles are within ourselves.
Things that are worth desiring are well worth doing. I am

WASHINGTON, D. C. Dr. R. Eust. head of the Department of Zoology of Howard, University, and vice-president of the American Association of Zoologists, sailed yesterday from New York for Padua, Italy, where he is to be one of six speakers at the general sessions of the eleventh International Congress of Zoologists to be held September 4 to 11.
Dr. Just plans to return to America the latter part of September in time for the opening of the autumn quarter of the university. Dr. Just spent six months last winter as guest investigator at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute fur Biologie, in Berlin-Dahlem, and several months during the previous year in biological research at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Nagles.

The Negro World has maintained its aggressive leadership in Negro journalism under the new editorial and business management. During the last three months it has aggregated quarters hitherto unexplored with its influence. It is the fearless and courageous championship of the Negro Race, not only in the United States, but wherever the Negro is. As such, it has undertaken, and rightly, the obligation of carrying a preponderant amount of international news in its columns.
The Negro World is the only paper the Negro Race publishes that concerns itself with foreign news, policy and development as they affect the race. It carries more African news than all the Negro papers in the United States put together, and in this there is no vanity. The Negro World has indeed widened the horizon of the Negro as no other paper has.
The following papers reprinted either the editorials, features or exclusive news items from The Negro World:
"The Indianapolis Recorder reprinted the editorials "Garveyisp and the Negro," and "Wall Street, the Barongster." The Oklahoma Eagle reprinted the editorial "The Negro With a Purpose." The "Chicago World" reprinted the divisional news from page three. The S. Kitts-Ness Bulletin reprinted the health article by Dr. Williams.
The Negro World will continue its leadership in wider and wider fields.
In view of the persistent British propaganda that there is so much communal discontent in India, The Negro World repinates the following dispatches from the Indian Daily Mail, an organ of the Indian Liberala, published at Bombay).
Lucknow, India, July 21.
Lucknow has seldom witnessed bigger gathering of Mussulmankhan than the one seen yesterday in connection with the Muslim Nationalist Conference at Gangapassand Haf. A large number of migrants had to be refused admission for lack of space. Several Muslim inmates watched the proceedings. Dr. Ausari presided and prominent among those present were Syeed Hasan Imam, the Maharaja of Mahdapadh, Mutti Kifayatulah, Mulana Atoullah, Shah Bokhaj, Raja Nawab Ali, Moulana Kuthaddi Abdul Bari, Mr. Ausaddi Sherwani, Sheilah Musghi Hussain Kidwal, Moulana Hussain Ahmad, Mr. Muhramhad Ismail, Mr. Mujibur Rahman, Mr. Samsuddhi, Moulvi Tufail Alam, Mr. Huzir Mohamed Ibrahim, Moulana Ahmad-Saad, Choudhury Khaliquzumman, Mr. Abdul Bari, Sheik Mirza Abid Hussain, Mr. Karrum Raza and Mr. Syeed Mustafa Raza.
Mahoniel Ismail, M.L.C., moved the following resolution:
"This conference of the National Museum of India expresses its desire of gratitude for the recognition and repositioning character of the recommendations of the Simon Commission as it has helped to cement the political unity of the people of India in general and Mahimang in particular and has given a fresh proof of the fact that the solution of our internal differences can best be achieved by mutual adjustments of an interested third party."
The move quoted extensively the Second Part of the Simon Report to show how the recommendations were repositioned and repositioned.
The resolution was unanimously carried.
independence.
Mr. Abdulhadi moved enrollment to the effect that Musadmans would join the Round Table Conference only if the basis of discussion was independent. That and only when all political prisoners in India had been unconditionally released and all repressions suspended.

Bombay India, July 21.
A largely attended public meeting under the auspices of the Nationalist Christian Party was held at Bandra, yesterday evening with Mr. Thomas Abindia in the chair. A number of speeches were made exhorting the Christian community to join the Congress and take part in the national fight.
Jews and Congress
A non-Party known as the Jewish Nationalist Party was brought into existence yesterday (Sunday) at a meeting of a number of Jews held in the office of Mr. Z. J. Solomon at Kahadevi. Dr. Brulkar, who presided, said that he was glad Jews had at last declared politically to associate themselves with the Nationalist movement. He condemned the repressive policy of the Government and particularly the lathi charges by police on unarmed and non-violent people. He had himself to attend to some of the victims of such lathi charges as he could say they were bruter.
He declared amidst applause that he was an ardent boycotter of British goods and said that Jews such should have nothing to do with the Round Table Conference unless Mahatma Gandhi and the Congress were invited to attend it.
Several speeches were made at the meeting expressing sympathy with the Nationalist movement, and resolutions were passed adopting the Swaziland pledge and congratulating those Jews who had already gone to jail in connection with the Civil Disobedience Movement, A. provincial committee with Dr. Erukular as president, Mr. I. J. Solomon and S. M. Benjamin as joint secretaries and half a dozen members was formed to carry on the work of the new party.

BRUCE FLOWERS, colored light-weight of New Rodale, apparently has fought his last fight in the ring. He was stopped by Justo Squares in the sixth round of their ten round feature at the Queensboro stadium. Halian fight fans will never forget Bruce's fights that he staged at the Old Commonwealth Casino now the Olympia A. C. Whenever Flowers was booked to show there the crowd was on hand because Bruce always gave the best in him on every occasion.
There is one thing that evidently hurt Flowers more than anything else, that was his constant going at it. It was hardly at times, one week between contests. Of course I am not saying that going at this clip would really affect him or any other fighter.
As you may recall Tiger Flowers sought sometimes twice per week. I recall Tiger saying while in training that he would much rather be in there fighting than training. It has often occurred that a fighter gets more punishment in training than in actual combat. Take Jack Dempsey, he received a broken rib once while in training. I think it was Lester Johnson who did it.
So after all it does not actually matter how often a fighter goes in there to face an opponent, especially if said fighter has any class.
Who had fought more often than Kid Chocolate? But the Kid took good care of himself. Bruce has had about one hundred and twenty-nine fights and out of this number he was only knocked out or stopped three times. Not such a bad record. Therefore no one should conclude that Bruce is through on account of his recent defeat at the hands of Suarez. I wouldn't regret Flowers taking a good rest-up for at least two months, and I mean rest-up. He should avoid everything, take to the mountains, away from frills, and just rebuild himself up. If he does this he will be good for two or three more years.
KOLI KOLO will be put to a real test this Thursday night. I, was made to understand that he told Jess McFahon, that he desired good opposition and not set ups as it were. That's what I call a fighting man. It's too bad we have not more of his type, especially so amongst the white boys, that call themselves prize fighters.
There is Harry Smith, the promoters at Ebbets Field, the Madison Square Garden, have been trying to get opposition for him.
Just say Smith to Bickey Walker, and Mickey takes a quick walk out on the boys. Dave Shade, Ace Hudkins, Harry Ebbets, Rene, De Vos, say we could go on and on naming the day boys that call themselves the choosers in the fighting nation, just going in the shell whenever Smith's name is mentioned.
Say Harry you once must be a power on earth, when members of the race that pretends to be the best in everything hasn't got one amongst them that will do combat with you.
I half you as a conqueror among men.
Continue to defy them and make them come out and fight, the cowards they are. May I ask the question, "What kind of fighters are they?"
Training for Fight
Young, Jack Thompson, world's wetterweight champion, started to train here for the first defense of his little Against Tommy Freeman, the Cleveland challenger, in the Cleveland baseball park, September 5. The fight will be 15 rounds to a reference decision. Thompson plans to depart for Cleveland Friday to finish this conditioning.

Koli Kolo, bantamweight and feather weight champion of Porto Rico, makes his fourth American appearance at the Olympia Boxing Club Thursday night when he hooks up with Nick DeSalvo of Corona, in the feature ten-round bout.
Since coming to America Kolo has scored three straight knockouts, his last victim being the formidable Joe Curry, ex-army champion. He confidently expects to add DeSalvo to his list and then usher himself right into the forefront of the contending group for Bat Eatalino's title.
There is an interesting story in connection with this match which is a return bout. It seems that DeSalvo knocked out Kolo in the Porto Rican's ring debut and that this was the only kaoer ever sustained by him. Since that time, of course, Kolo has made big strides and he will probably enter the ring an 8 to 5 favorite to defeat DeSalvo.
Four six-round bouts and an opening four rounder, all paired with a view toward supplying fast and furious action, support the feature number, Eduardo Duarry, of Cuba, and Pacundo Rafy, of Porto-Nico, meet in the semi-final.
The other six-rounders follow: Augustine Torres, of Porto-Nico, clashes with Harry Matimity, of Hertlem; Druno Potimach, featherweight champion of Italy, vs. Mickey Curle, of the Bronx, and Franço Goobry, of California, clashing with Tony Pizza, of the Bronx.
In the opening four rounder Ted Moses, of Hertlem, meets Franine Spicer, of Staten Island.
Leon "Bembo" Chevallier, California heavyweight, who refuged to be knocked out by Prime Carnera in their much taller of flight, began training at the Arcade gymnasium this week for future battles. He is here with his manager, Tim McGrain, who handled much outstanding fighters as Tom Sharley, Stanley Ketchell, Jim Jeffries, Jack Johnson and many others. Chevallier is expected to work at the Arcade gym a few more days before departing for Boston, where he is said to be quatched with Victor Campalo on August 28.
Bowl in Cleveland
CLEVELAND, Aug. 24. - Big George and little Mrs. George Godfrey arrived in this city last Friday afternoon from Philadelphia to start immediate training for his bout with Arthur Dekuh, huge New York heavyweight, whom he meets at Taylor bowl next Thursday night; August 28.
This will make Godfrey's second appearance here this season, since he met and keyed Frankie Simms in the second round of their scheduled 12-round bout.
The Dekuh fight was to have been pulled off in New York, but due to the action taken against George after his mix-up with Carmera in Philly the commission said nix, so the large Eddie Mead, promoter of Taylor bowl, grabbed the match for the local arena.
This bout should be a bit more interesting than the Simms affair, for George was wavy too good for the south side Pole and could have dumped him in the first chapter, but waited until the second.
Dekuh has met some of the best heavies in the country and has never been knocked out, ab we will see just how powerful the newly married George really is.
George will workout at Dickie Bird's East 49th street gym daily until the 29th.
Detroit Set for Baby Joe Gans Fight
DETROIT. Aug.' 24. — Gerald Shugther, who travels in fistic circles under the nom de guerre of Baby Joe Gans, faces a tough obstacle in his path when he stacks up against Joe Rugguzzi on the main bout on Jack Johnson's card at the Hamtramck stadium Tuesday evening, August 26. Rugguzzi, welterweight champion of Italy, is of the rugged type and throws grooves every minute he is in the ring.
Since coming to Detroit last winter Rugguzzi has engaged in 14 battles, winning 13 and losing one by a close decision.
Gans has been winning consistently, scoring his latest kayo a week ago, when he seized flarry Wallach to sleep in the first round at New York. This gives Gans 10 knockouts in 11 starts since the first of the year.
Detroit fans have had no chance to see what the west coast sensation can do. He has never performed here and his battle with Rugguizoni Tuesday night will be the local tight followers chance to see him in action.
John Benchin and Joe Mendona sample in the jambalaya hunt. The boys are middleweight and have made good records. Mendona hustle from Chicago, where he has been winning with regularity. Benchin is a local white boy with a string of knockouts to his credit.
Everything is all for the show, recording to Johnson, who will also be the third man in the ring during the main attraction. The former heavyweight champion has received a special referee permit.
Four other good bouts are listed for the entertainment of the fans. The stadium is located at Hamtramck, about ten minutes' ride by auto from downtown. The Eckor street care stop at the entrance.
Godfrey to Fly to Detroit
George Godfrey will fly to Detroit
for the event after an engagement at
Cleveland on the same night. Plans
were completed by Dr. J. L. Leach
and Edward Moody, promoters of the
fight, and Jackson, matchmaker, for
a private plane to convey Godfrey
to the fight. Frank Sullion of Pitt-
burgh will accompany Godfrey to
Detroit.
Plans are perfected for a record
attendance and from the advance sale
of tickets more than fifteen thousand
fans will witness the fight.
Fighting Bob
Lawson in a
4-Round K. O.
AMBERCUS, Gia., Aug. 24. Another challenger's hopes were blasted by the first fist of Fighting Bob Lawson last night when he finished off four rounds of body punching to wily in a short but mighty left jab to the chin of Texas Tanner; local boxer, which left him sitting dazedly groping for support on the ropes as the bell saved him from the ninth count. Tanner's spirit suffered a severe slump in the first rounds when his one-two punches with all he had behind them failed to stop the slow advance of Lawson as he laid a scientific campaign for the grand fistic finale which came at the close of the fourth round. Tanner's seconds threw in the towel at the gong for the fifth when he failed to rise from a stupor produced by the impact of that short exploding blow.
Lawson displayed a thorough knowledge of the art and worked out his own fight, in a manner that bespoke many and vested encumbrance. He never removed a water-manked sponge from his mouth, and took several of Tanner's beak to the skin, seemingly in an effort to chart his course of attack. After the light he experienced surprise that Tanner had fallen under a punch he encountered hard.
CHICAGO, Aug. 24—Many plans were laid for a bigger and better and more profitable season over the Theatre Owners' Booking Association Circuit by a group of theatre owners and managers at a meeting held in Cincinnati, O., last week. The managers are all of the opinion that the public is tired of canned music and "squawkiness" and want shows in the flesh. They all expressed their desires to have good shows and made known the fact that they were ready to go as soon as the producers and managers of the shows are ready. Many of them declared they would be open with road shows Labor Day.
Among the owners and managers in the Cincinnati meeting were Million Stair, owner of a string of theatres through Georgia, Tennessee and the Carolinas; William Lando, owner of the spacious now Lando Theatre, Pittsburgh; Henry F. Egar of the Pythian Theatre, Columbus, O.: Carl Braun of the Roosevelt Theatre, Cincinnati; Charles H. Turpin, president of the T. O. B. A., formerly of the Booker Washington Theatre, St. Lewis, now the Little Gayety, under the direction of a new corporation and of which Mr. Turpin is a member, and Sam E. Reeving, treaurer-manager of the T. O. B. A. circuit
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 24 -- Lew Massey, local featherweight star, will be in the feature bout at the Arena next Monday night, according to an announcement made by Matchmaker Pete Tyrell.
His opponent will be Eddie Shea of Chicago, whose recent victory over Benn Bass has boosted his stock to the point where heads now a logical contender for the crown being worn by Bat Battalio.
Five six-round "fights" of the old knock-em-down, type will preclude the final ten. Among these early warriors will be El Kadir of Turkey, known in other days as Billy Edwards of Washington. His opponent has not yet been chosen.
Jack Dempsey May Promote in Detroit
Jack Dempsey, who didn't do so well financially in promoting shows here last winter, is expected to return soon in the same capacity, but not in Chicago.
The Manassa Mauler evidently has been secured by a millionaire sportman to promote shows in Detroit, for Tony Alba, manager of Jack Thompson, a wired 160-foot champion, received a wire from Dempsey, who is in Los Angeles, asking if he could use Thompson to fight a suitable opponent on September 16 at the Milwaukee city.
May Give Baby for
NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-Baby Joe Gans has no trouble at all in putting Ralph Landia, witterweight, who substituted for Harry Wulich, to sleep in the first round of a scheduled 10-round affair at the Golden City arena last night.
Gans was the whole show in the affair and he sent the substitute to the canvass early in the first round for the full count.
According to Promoters Jae McMahon's plans, Gans, who won his last three big fights, will meet one of the leading contenders for the honors now held by Jack Thompson.
It is believed that McMahon is seeking to stage a bout between Gans and Young Cornett, the winner to fight it out with the champion in a titular bout.
If this fight is staged at Ebbets' field it will be the greatest contest ever put on at that field by McMahon. No date has been set, but it will be either September 17 or October 1, marking the close of the outdoor season at Ebbets' field. Gans is in great shape, according to his trainer, Kid Bell.
Lew Leslie's latest edition of "Blackbirds" will open in New Haven, Conn., September 1, for a week, going from there to Boston for an indefinite run before their appearance on Broadway. Flournoy Miller writes the book and Andy Razaf wrote the music. The cast is headed by Ethel Waters.
Into Beauty Contestants
WASHINGTON—Plain girls will be made over into beauty contestants, it is said, before the style of the audience at the meeting, of the National Hall-Dressers and Cosmetologists Association Sept. 1-6.
Beauty specialists from Paris and from all parts of America are to take part in demonstrations which are to transform homesteads into polychrity, according to H. L. Franklin, managing director of the organization.
and owner of the Liberty Phantom
Chastanova.
Harmony reigned throughout the meeting, and every suggestion made by Reevin, the circuit's booking wizard, was accepted with manifest congruity. The meeting was closed after a more than four-hour session and after a wonderful dinner at one of Cincinnati's leading palace de monglates. They all departed for their home cities.
New Circuit Stuff, Bunk
News emanating from some place
notice source had it that a new circuit was in the offing and that it would be in opposition to the T. O. B. A.
but as yet nothing authentic has been revealed. "The corner Johnnes" declared they could see no reason for such rumor, especially when conditions are as they are and the "new and opposition" circuit bee had stung them about two times too many already. When several of the better thinking performers were approached on the subject they said as far as they were concerned it was a lot of tommyrot, or just plain, unadulferated bunk, and they wondered if those responsible for the rumor or the idea could be rational or were they merely trying to invite some attention to themselves.
MONTGOMERY, Ala., Aug. 19. After their final weekly radio appearance for the summer over WAPE here tonight, three musical groups of the Alabama State Teachers College under the supervision of Willis James, musical director, hit the trail in their big White bus for the extended trip of five weeks that will take them to Illinois, Michigan, New York and Pennsylvania. The male quintetrite, the thirty-piece band and the "Bama State Collegians"—crack ten-piece dance combination—constitute the groups to be used on this tour. The male quintetrite and the band will be presented in Chicago and in Detroit at the meeting of the National Baptist convention and the Elks Grand, Lodge respectively. The Alabama State band will lead the Alabama delegation, in the Grand Parade at Detroit on August 26.
"The Bama State Collegians" will do the heaviest assignment. They open with a dance engagement at Louisville on August 21 and follow with appointments at the New Masonic auditorium in Evanston on August 22, at the Plinga Arcade on Chicago on August 23, at the New Majestic Ballroom in Detroit on August 24 (including ball), at Pontiac Michigan on August 26, at the Doecline Club in Kalamazoo, Michigan, on August 27, at Pittsburgh on August 28 and at the Imperial Auditorium New York City on August 29. These crack monuments will then open a three-week engagement at the Strand Ballroom in Philadelphia on Labor Day with extra engagements in Pennsylvania and New Jersey cities before returning to the school camps for the opening of the fall quarter on September 22.
Alumni groups of the Alabama State Teachers College are sponsoring the appearances of these musical groups in Chicago, Detroit and New York City. These Alumni chapters will also have President H. Council Trumbull as their guest for a special alumni meeting at, each of these three points.
Over a field of more than 200 players, it is colored golden led the field Monday in the third annual Southern California open candle tournament. This is Hoyt Porter, a young man who was one of the few colored entries among the army of whites. The first day's play at Rancho and Sunset Fields ended in Porter shooting a 75.
Following him the next scores, all by whites, were: 78 - Tony Paluso, G. McGheeady, L. Danish, Bruce Baird; 80 - Ernest Gray, Wheaton, Molina; 81 - Burton, Star, W. Ramish.
The Hall Johnson Negro Choir returned to the Lewisohn Stadium at City College last week and delighted its auditors with many favorite spirituals. Especially effective was the singing of "Deep River," with its alto solo (or perhaps the singer might preface to be called contrale) and its background of humming voices. Other favorites included "Moe' Done Travolin," "Great Camp Meetin'," "Ok' Ark' a's Movesin'," "You may bury me in de Eas'," "Swing Low, Sweet Charlot," "Water-Way," "Glumme Yo Hah," and the anorexes which included "Buckleel Saw de Wheel" and "Let the Haven Light Shine on Me." The director, Hall Johnson, was heartily greeted and there were many people. The election, information and success of the singers were of the usual standard.

GOOD MUSIC SUBSCRIPTION
CHICAGO, IL, Aug. 5—One of the most novel parties ever held in the city of Chicago according to the response of the more than 300 people attending, was the midammer festival and dance given on Tuesday opening, July 29, by the "All Negro Hour Club" at the Golden Lily cafe the southside's most popular dine and dance palace, by the entertainers of Jack L. Cooper's "Gang" from radio station WSBC.
Our own "Jack" as he is known to radio listeners together with W. Gunther, chief engineer of the same station erected a miniature broadcasting station at the café for the occasion and sprung it as a surprise even to the artists who were to appear. More than $1,500,000 worth of equipment was used in the erection of the miniature station through the courtesy of Jos. Silverstein, owner of station WSBC, the big-hearted man who believed that a man should have what he merits to the extent of placing. Chicago's first Negro announcer on a radio station officially
The program was a success and sets a precedent in the annals of festivals and dances where entertainment features are offered. Those appearing before the "mike" on the occasion were: Claude "Clink" Rhodes, staff pianist of the "Gang" Mabel McDonald, the "Lil" Ethel Waters, Leroy Smith, baritone Odella Nelson, the gang's contralto A. B. Brooke, the singing drizzigist; Catherine Wade, the little oroile; Buddy Burton, the "Original Hokum Boy"; Lucretia Knight, the gang prima donna; David Moze, uke specialist; Baby June Rhodes, the race's youngest radio artist; "Big Boy" Edwards, tenor guitar artist; Leslie Stratton, the boo-doo-pee-doo lady and program directress. Those appearing on the floor, from the loop theatre, were: The "Original Cotton Pickers" quartet; Smiling Myrtle; Casmere Evans, tap specialist, Ligon and Edwards, Spanish dancers; deluxe; Sonny and Helen Clark and Collie Dill and Henryte Davis the record stars. Jack L. Cooper officiated at the mike stand and his ready with kept his hearers in a good and receptive mood. His expression, "You just can't help but like it" has become a household word with radio listeners and his gang is one of the most popular staffs of entertainers on the air.
Cops Three Tennis

LONDON, Aug. 18—England completed her first innings today in the cricket 149 match with Australia, scoring 408. Herbert Macdill, who held the team together when collapsed threatened on Saturday, carried his score from 138 to 161. R. H. S. Wyatt, England's captain, scored 64.
The tailenders were soon disposed of and Australia commenced their reply. Thirty-six runs for the loss of one wicket had been scoped by lunch time by W. M. Woodful and W. H. Ponsford, the opening pair of batmen. At the close of play for the day Australia had scored 215 for two wickets.
To Make Game Annual Affair for Chicago Fans
WILBERFORCE, O. --- According to reports coming from Wilberforce University and Tukegee Institute Athletic Administrations the Wilberforce-Tukegee game will become an annual mid-western affair for Chicago. The game last year in Soldiers' Field proved a success to both institutions and was stated to have carried the largest attendance of any Negro football game during the year despite the fact, that the game was scheduled for Chicago at the very last moment.
This annual wild-western classis will be held on October 25th this year in the mammoth Soldier's Field. Officials of both institutions will begin early this year to make arrangement for the conveyance of their student bodies to Chicago to witness the game. The teams are bitter rivals; both claiming championships, Tuskeguee claiming the National Negro Football championship, while Wilberforce is claiming the Mid-Western championship. Coach Graves is spending practically all of the summer getkng ready to face one of the hardest schedules that Wilberforce has had for many years. She has scheduled three games in eight days which will mean hard work and strict training for her vets. However, with the return of practically all of last year's varsity men and a host of newcomers, Graves feels confident of putting out a championship team.

TINA CIMBROT VERIAL
El lince manifesta la creencia de que nuestra raza necesita humildad de profesión, podrá contractar la opinión de algunos de nuestros críticos, porque muchos consideran que nuestra raza está limitada en esta parte del globo, sin tener en consideración los multiples millones de negros en el resto del mundo.
La república dominicana está de placente con el ascenso a la presidencia del general Rafael Leónidas Trujillo, joven patriota de alas mujeres y queen, a cuatro estandar, each dispuesto a encarrierar a su pueblo por el camino del bienestar.
A nuestro mejor entender existen actualmente cuatrocientos millones de seres, cuyo destino es el mismo, cuyos sufrimientos son identicos y quienes hacen grandes esfuerzos por vías de una causa común, para remediar dichos males y elevar la raza entera hacia un plano de honor, respeto y consideración.
Al ser notificado en mayo ultimo sobre su elección a la presidencia, el general Trujillo, manifesto que su primer paso hacia el progreso de la república, seria la rehabilitación en cuanto a lo económico, social y político concierne.
Los hombre de profesión en una raza. pueden compararse en importancia, con los glóbulos rojos en las arterias de un organismo; son ellos el símbolo de una salida perfecta. Nuestro elemento está anémico por alta de ese material que le dé fuerza y vigor para avanzar en el camino del progreso, quedándose por consiguiente a la retaguardia de los demás y dependiendo siempre de la poca cooperación que de estos abtena.
Durante su periodo de cuatro años, el nuevo presidente dominicano intenta reducir los gastos del gobierno, proporcionar trabajo a todo aquel que lo necesite y dar una educación adecuada a la juventud que se levanta.
En las cefemionias de la toma de posición y luego de haber prestado juramento, tanto el discurso del general Trujillo como el del licenciado Rafael Estrella Urefia, vicepresidente electro de la república, fueron acogidos con grandes ovaciones por los millares de personas alli congregadas.
Nadie podrá independisarse y ser respetado siempre que tenga que mendingar; nunca seria poderoso y fuerte dependiendo de la caridad del projímo. Tanto el individuo como la raza y la naición adquieren grandeza y fortuna de acuerdo con el grado de inteligencia que posean y el modo y manera de ponerla en práctica, ya conforme con las exigencias que las circunstancias requieran.
Tenemos el presentimiento de que el asentelo del joven general al primer puesto del gobierno de su país, augura una nueva, era de paz y prosperidad, toda vez con el colaboren todos aquellos elementos, verdaderos amantes de la patria y de su libertad.
Una gran número entre nuestro elemento se conforma solamente con poder obtener el pan de cada dia, tener con que cubrir su cuerpo y un sitio para,su descanso, sin preocuparles cuan transitorias puedan ser estas pequeñas dàvidas. Otros se encuentran perfectamente satisfechos con un puesto mayor o menor lucrativo, por la falta de ambición para ilustrarse en cualquier labor profesional.
Opinión Editorial
El atraso de la raza descansa en el letargo de sus hombres, quienes se conforman con ser simples sirvientes dependiendo toda su vida y sin ninguna energía para sacudir el yugo y crear puestos para si mismo y para sus generaciones futuras. Para estos parece mejor trabajarle a otro que aprovechar su juvenruid y establecerse en cualquier clase de negocio, que gradualmente les redude beneficio, creando por consiguiente empleo para los suyos.
Nosotros tenemos la impresión de que la república va a entrar en un periodo de frime reorganización, en el cual todas las cuestiones tendrán que ser metodizadas.
Las oficanas públicas han sido despojadas de todos los elementos innecesarios y los servicios han continuado funcionando con acceptable eficencia. Relativamente hablando, tiene que haber más eficencia que antes, puesto que se rinden similares servicios, con la mitad del personal.
La falta de profesionales, la falta de verdaderos hombre empobrecie la raza. Esta es una de las tantas verdades amargas, peto es la pura verdad. Cuatrocientos millones de negros y donde estan sus estadistas? Tal es la clase de individuos que nuestra raza necesita para la protección de sus intereses en los centros diplomáticos de los otros pueblos y para encarrier su propio destino en la patria propia, la tierra de sus antepasados. Eduquémonos en tal dirección; eduquemos nuestra juventud.
El beneficio que se obtiene consiste en el hecho de la detención del caracter progresivo del deticit, heche abstracto, imponderable, que sentimos mentalmente, pero que no venos materialmente, sin que por esto dejemos de compreender que significa un inmenso beneficio para nuestro país. Cuando venga una más felig situation en la hidienda, no será ociación de pedir restituciones de puestos ni provision de mayor número de empleados.
El apostol del nuevo espíritu de libertad en India promulgo entre las tribus nativas un movimiento no cooperativo con los impostores. Su encarcelamiento no ha injuriado un sólo atomo su doctrina emancipadora; muy por el contrario, su causa se ha captado la simpatía y admiración de otros indus, quienes a la iniciación de dicho movimiento no estaban interesados en el partido que Ganhi representaba.
El propósito de todos debe se que se gaste lo menos posible en administración, o mejor dicho, en personal administrativo, a fin de que sobre la mayor suma posible de dinero para obras de fomento público. —La Opinion, Site, Donning.
El gran patriota es considerado como el martir de una causa justificada, e indudablemente desde las celdas de la prision ha de continuar la promulgacion de la libertad de su pueblo. La crucificacion de Cristo santifica la religión cristiana; el encarcelamiento de Gandhi ha de nacionalizar el movimiento que el iniciara, en la esperanza de que en no lejano dia la farsia, la explotacion y la sumision de parte de los intrusos sea exterminada por la determinacion de los adeptos a esa gran causa.
Ataque n. Los Comunistas
Una turba anienazadora de hombres, mujeres y niños, fue mantenido a raya hoy por el jeff de policia Harry J. Tifft y seis agentes, con la cooperación de las tropas del estado, en el campo comunista de Van Etten. La turba intentaba incendiar el campo comunista y anunció a los jefes del campo que debian salir, jinto con los niños y mujeres que se encuentran allí, antes de media hora.
Los cuatrocientos millones de nuestro elemento simpatizan profundamente con las ideas libertarias de los millones de la India, porque Africa e India tienen en sí el mismo destino común. Nos abriga la esperanza de que estas dos prepotentes razas oscuras, unan sus fuerzas en pro de su propia salvación.
Las autoridades, ilegaron con algunos minutos de anticipación y lograron evitar que consumaran el hecho.
El origen del odio que se ha desarrollado contra el campo comunista data de un incidente ocurrido el último viernes. Una bandera norteamericana ofrecida por una sociedad patriótica fue rechazada por Mahel Husa y Ailens Holmes, ilides del campo comunista de Van Etten.
Los directores de nuestra raza niegra tienen un ejemplo practico en los sufrimientos del apostol de la libertad de India. El esta hecho del material que requiere una dirección conciente, con la clase de caracter que a nada teme en defensa de sus principios. Tal es la clase de dirección que nuestro elemento necesita; hombres con la, mejor intención y mayor determinación en sus propósitos.
Las señoritas Husa y Holmes lucion arriadas sus subacuñaciones y se les acusó de despreciar el emplema nacional. Poco después el emplema represalis, una turba de hombres bajó del asa y pisoteo una bandera roja, enarbolada a la entrada del campo comunista.
La pléyade de déspotas que gobierna con mano de hierro no parece obtener beneficio alguno en la experiencia adquirida por sus hazanas; si lo obtuvieran, ya hubieran desde mucho tiempo cesado de encarcelar y tratar de destruir ideales. Cristo fue clavado en una cruz con la intención de destruir su religión, pero povrecientes años de historia nos revelan que su sangre detramada en el Calvazio, santificó la gran doctrina que el predicador a sus discipulos, la cual es actualmente venecida por cenfenares de millones de seres cristianos.

Oliver Moore sentado de haber disgado a dos Muses, fue escada de la prison del consedio de Edgcombe, estado de Cazolina del Norte y linchado por vurma de blancos, informe el jefe de policía Ranald.
Moore fui arrestado hela un punto simado aproximadamente a quince millas de Tarboro y colgado de un armbol. El cuerpo presenta numerosas heridas de bala y gofes.
La victima se encontraba detenido bajo la custodia del vigilante Watson, quien duerne en la carcel. En las últimas horas de la noche una persona toco la puerta y Watson, ingenuamente, abrió. La turba, integra por más de doscientos hombres encasarados, se apoderó del preso a pesar de las protestas del vigilante.
La Campaña Afridis
Los atridis de Tiran están haciendo esfuerzos para conseguir la co-operation de los mohmands del norte, de Hassan Khel y de Aso Khel, Varias tribus de Orakzak se han unido ya a los atridis y preparan un ataque a Kohat.
En el distrito de Peshawar se encuentran tropas inglesas suficientes para garantizar la vida y propiedades de los habitantes, pero reina un malestar general y una falta de confianza en las tropas que hace dificiol obtener cooperaction de los residentes.
Como miedida de precaución un battalón ingles y tres indios se han movilizado hacia Jhansi, a cien millas de Peshawar y en las provincias unidas de Rawai Pindi.
Estas fuerzas están bajo el comando del brigadier general Robertson. Se considera innimente la proclamación de la ley marcial en el distrito de Peshawar.
Para Facilitar Una Importación
Es posible que el departamento del Fesoro Lá嘴巴 publica muy pronto un arreglo por el cual se permite a los exportadores de tabaco cubano pagar los derechos e impuestos internos con anticipación para evitar así demoras inescasarias.
Desde que se firme la nueva Convención Postal entre Cuba y los Estados Unidos y se permita la importación de tabacos en lotes menores de tres mil los exportadores cubanos y los importadores norteamericanos han estado tratando de encontrar una formula que facile la trinitas de aduana y colección de impuestos.
El señor J. A. Montalvo, director de Correos de Cuba y firmante de la Convención postal, sugirió que se designara un attache comercial a la embajadora de los Estados Unidos en la Habana. Este attaché tendría la facultad de cobrar los impuestos en el pinto de embajra.
Se sugiirid también que los exporadores cuános depositaran cierta cantidad de dinero en las aduanas para deducir de ese dinero el valor de los embarques a medida que centraran a los Estados Unidos.
Se sabe que el departamento del Tesoro y los oficiales de aduanas han estado disuntiendo el alumno y que han acordado un plan, sujeto a la aprobación definitiva. La nueva convención postal entra en vigencia el primer de septiembre y para esta fecha el departamento del Tesoro habra ya annunciado el proyecto determinado, se cree.
El plan del señor Montalvo encontró objetiones de parte de algnitos, que aleganaron la imposibilidad legal de colectar impuestos en territorio extranjero. A este argumento responderían otros que la embajada norteamericana en la Habana y en cualquier otro país es, de acuerdo con el derecho internacional, territorio norteamericano.
La nueva convención firmada recientemente restablece las relaciones postales entre Cuba y los Estados Unidos. Tales relaciones se hallaban susperididas desde hace algunos años por oponer Cuba a una de sus clausulas.

Rehuso hacer comentarios sobre peromenizados sobre la conferencia, pero dijo que había versado sobre la cuestion de la independencia. Rojas dijo que presentaría informaciones completas de sus actividades y las de la cuestion pro independiente, que presidió en sus capítulos al momento de Filipinas a sus regiones.

place. In a few instances sudden bleeding might assume such a proportion as to end in complete disaster. The blood, so to speak, constitutes the life of the individual and if there be an escape anywhere the cause should be thoroughly investigated.
The commonest cause is due to an accident and the wound so inflicted should have immediate attention, for although it might appear small, there is the possibility of developing blood poisoning. Wounds about the palm of the hand and face are not to be trifled with. The entire hand has known to be lost through neglecting a so-called insignificant wound on the finger. Bleeding about the face might and in serious consequences to the brain.
There are many diseases which are associated with bleeding. This kind usually causes great alarm as the patient is not able to determine exactly the source of the trouble. Nose bleed is a frequent complaint. Few people have weathered a stormy life without experiencing it at some time. The trouble is common in the days of childhood. The child picks at the nose owing to an irritation somewhere, and as the tiny blood vessels in the mucous membrane are near the surface, they bleed readily. Watch your child carefully when this symptom arises, and if it is persistent then consult your family doctor. In most other cases the circulation is generally at fault, and that constitutes g same reason why a physical examination now and again is a necessity.
During the cold season of the year the spitting of blood is not an unusual sight. Owing to weather conditions the respiratory track has thrown upon it a great deal of work. The diseases thereabout are numerous and blood scrapes from the vein

Bleeding from the intestinal tract usually occurs in those who are suffering from stomach and bowel ailments. The blood is vomited or passed out with the feces. This state of affair is not always recognized by the sick person owing to the change in color of the blood. After the change of life women should be very suspicious about blood escaping from the genital tract. It is a sure sign of disease and warrants immediate attention. By examination of the urine it is possible to detect blood coming from the kidney, the other-parts of the urinary system. Have you had your urine tested this year? There are some persons who bleed incessantly, from the alightest injury. Such is bleeder's disease. It runs in the family and the males are principally affected. It is very resistant to treatment.
