James Weldon Johnson, contributing editor of Tuz New York Ace and held secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., has been designated as acting secretary of the latter organization, succeeding John R. Shillady, the appointment being pending final action by the board of directors. As contributing editor of Tuz Ace, Mr. Johnson has attained a wide prominence, his column, "Views and Reviews," being an outstanding feature of this publication. He is the author of several notable books, including "The Anthology of an Ex-Colored Man" and has contributed poems and articles The Nation, an independent, The Nation and The Times. In 1916 he was appointed field secretary of the N. A. A. C.

Only two of the 68 bran- Baltimore, Md. - The entrance of W. Ashbie Hawkins into the race for the United States Senate as an independent candidate has attracted general attention. Republican leaders who were banking on the election of E. Weller have become alarmed. It is reported that Dr. Ernest Lyon, the Rev. Junius Gray, the Rev. A. L. Godors and H. M. St. Clair went to New York to hold a conference with national leaders regarding the situation. Attorney J. Steward Davis and several others on the committee behind Hawkins were invited also, but did not respond to the invitation. The Hawkins candidacy is the result of the race being continually ignored by Republicans here, and reached the climax when the Republican City Councilmen joined with Democrats in eliminating the names of four colored men from the ordinanceanning constables while City Councilmen Warner L. McQuinn and W. L. Fitzgerald were in Chicago attending the Republican National Convention. Despite the fact that Republican leaders gave every assurance more than a year that colored men would be taken care by the Breeding administration only about 30 mental jobs have been parcelled out.

At present there are 165 brunches in the states below the Macon and Dixon line, with approximately 50,000 members. John R. Shillady, who was recently after a number of years' service as secretary of the advancement Association, has been appointed as executive director of the National Consumers' League 44 East 21st Street, of which Secretary of War Ruther is president and Mrs. Florence Keller is general secretary. Mr. Shillady will have charge of promoting the League's program for improving the working hours wages and conditions of labor of women and girl wage-earners, and of defending labor legislation in the court.

Nelson, a former resident of this country, coming originally from Norfolk, Va., but living in Cuba since 1898, came to the United States to attend the annual session of the National Negro Business League. Mr. Nelson is associated with P. R. Ros & Co., as assistant manager, and he is making a special effort to interest American Negro farmers in the opportunities offered in Cuba to the man with a small capital. Primitive Ramiter Ros, senior member of the firm, is a member of the Camera de Representantes, the Cuban Congress, representing the Matanzas district. Senior Ros is particularly interested in the American Negro and Mr. Nelson declares that the Cuban congressman has promised to secure a government grant of land for such men as can be induced to come to Cuba prepared to engage in the raising of food stuffs. Nelson addressed the National Negro Business League and put his proposition before that body. He informed an Acr. representative that so many of the men enrolled themselves for investigation of the offer that he was compelled to leave the matter of their selection in the hands of Secretary Emmett J. Scott. Mr. Nelson leaves Saturday of this week on his return to Havana, Cuba, where he is located at 54 Calle Neptuno. sn.

NATIONAL FIELD OF THE LINCOLN RESERVE LIFE INSURANCE Can place in good-pay MANAGERS, AGENTS, STENOGRAPHES Garvey Followers in Rage Against Morris Disciples of Marcus Garvey and members of the Negro Improvement Association became violently demonstrative on Sunday evening, August 22, directing their anger against the Rev. Charles S. Morris of Norfolk, Va., who preached that evening at the big tent on West 138th street, which is being used by the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell and his flock from Abyssinian Baptist Church for a series of outdoor meetings. Dr. Morris, in the course of this sermon on the significance of the present discontent in the world, took occasion to speak disparagingly of the Garvey propaganda. Dr. Morris characterized as a foolish proposition the alleged intention of the Universal Negro Improvement Association to taill of Africa from the white nations of the world. The resource of France, England, Belgium, Italy and other European countries having interests in Africa would make a force which the Garvey organization could not possibly overcome, said Dr. Morris. The Abyssinian tent is located on the property recently acquired by that congregation, on which their new house of worship is to be erected, and it lies adjacent to Liberty High, which is the most southerly place of the African institution now in session in New York. Ag is actually the case. Liberty High could not hold all of the people who wanted to attend the session and a number of them were scattered around the outside of Dr. Powell's tent church. It is said that the attention of the voyees was directed toward Dr. Po. Abyssinian pastor. He was advised that the tent be made other wise, but this advice confirmed. Liberty did he refuse police escort. He left his tent by of the main front entrance, and not regard for the mattersings and thre Disorder Starts. When these people caught the drift of Dr. Morris' sermon and discovered that he was speaking against the Carvery doctrine, they immediately began a disturbance that disrupted Abyssinian's religious service. Threats of physical violence against the preacher were added to the vocal disturbances and it became necessary for the police authorities to take a hand. The ordinary detail of one or two officers was not sufficient to protect the religious congregation. It is alleged that those of the Liberty Hall convention who were on the outside acquainted those on the inside of the hall with what was transpiring under the tent, and it is said that within a few minutes several hundred Carvery们 were engaged in the demonstration against Dr. Morris because of his remarks. The police on duty sent in a call to the 135th street station house and a half dozen uniformed men were sent post hailstake. These men found themselves unable to handle the crowd and sent in a call for additional officers. Six plain clothes men soon put in an appearance. It is declared that the demonstration because so violent and the threats so carnet, that it was necessary for the plain clothes men to form themselves into a bodyguard and驱Dr. Morris to his stopping place at 56 West 134th street, where he was a guest of Mr. and Mrs. Mason. It was thought best to take a roundabout route through Seventh avenue, instead of the direct route to Lenox avenue which would have taken the party directly past Liberty Hall. Dr. Powell also Threatened. After Dr. Morris had left the tent, it is said that the attention of the veyites was directed toward Dr. P. Alqamian's pastor. He was advised from the court by some other who this main entreaty, but this advice remained. Likewise did he refuse police escort. He left his sent by of the main front entrance, and not regard for the matters and threw the disorderly crowd that thronged on sidewalks. The extent of the demon situation, however, was limited to verbal insults and threats, to which he paid no attention. Some one of the crowd is alleged to have remarked that if he had had a pistol he would have shot the preacher. Dr. Morris preached again on Monday night, but there was no further attempt at molesting him. When Dr. Powell left the test, after services had closed, he was again the target of verbal insults, but no physical effort was made against him. Police authorities discharged to Dr. Powell that if the Gurvey crowd continued to distract the church's military service and to create disorder it would result in Liberty. Half, failing, closed. At the same time that the introduction was being staged against Dr. Morris and the Abyssinian captain, the Rev. Euseand W. Daniel of St. Philip's Protestant Church, 134th street near Seventh avenue, of which the Rev. Hutchins C. Bailup is rector, was denouncing pointedly and directly the radical sentiment expressed in the speeches made at the convention of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Many of the members of St. Philip's congregation are either members of the Garvey association or have been attending some of the meetings. In the presence of these Garvey sympathizers, the Rev. Mr. Daniels, who is Dr. Bishop's assistant, denounced the plans of Garvey and his followers for the redemption of Africa and took issue with the speakers before the Liberty Hall gatherings for the intemperate radicalism of their speeches. Garvey's Matter Mr. Daniels declared that Garvey is making the mistake of thinking only of his own race, instead of the good of all mankind. Said the minister: "We are allowing ourselves to be misrepresented by the speakers at 11:38th Street. White men have forced the question of color to the point of stupidity but the fanatics of our race are just as stupid. It is just as bad to think only of the black as of the white. "Both races, by their joint efforts, have made the land of hope and our concern is not primarily with Africa, but with our development here in America. "We need unselfish leadership that is willing to make sacrifices; not that which is thinking of its own pocket, and immediate interests. We need paid lobbyists at Washington, to look after our interests; we need self-control as a race, and we all, we need greater simplicity of life. "We Liberty Hall I heard one speaker say: "We are going to have democracy in this country; if we have to kill white man in it. "Are you prepared to follow such leadership as this? Our task is to find honorable and peaceful ways of writing the differences between race and race. "There then is the absurdity of thinking of God as black and of Jesus as a Negro. God has no color, and Jesus was historically a Jew; and we are only making ourselves ridiculous when we think of them as anything else. "They are threatening a division of the race, after fifty years of struggle to solidify it. They would set up a distinction between the full Negro and those of mixed blood."

( FULL DIRECTIONS ON EVERY BOTTLE ) BE SURE THIS SEAL IS UNBROKEN Madam C.J. Walker If you stand at Lenox avenue and 135th street in Harlem, at the upper end of Manhattan, and draw a circle with a radius of half a mile, you will have inclosed a unique and remarkable Negro city of 150,000 population within the greater city of New York; the best housed and best-behaved Negro city in the world; "No alleys; no broken-down, ramshackle tenements. Not a fringe of wretched shanties around, "where the white folks live," as you may find in the South, but a solid, substantial, up-to-date American city. ```markdown ``` Two types of buildings make up this model, densely settled Negro district. There are the "new-law" apartments of modern steel construction, steam-heated, and cach flat provided with bath, those of three rooms averaging a monthly rent of $20, those of seven rooms $75. And west of Eighth avenue, in 136th, 137, 138th and 139th streets, are long stretches of handsome new individual houses, owned and occupied by Negroes. Washington, Chicago and other northern cities, provided with "black belts" have had race riots, but such a misfortune has never fallen upon "Negro Harlem." A "Black Moses" Appears Into this satisfied, settled, luxury loving, civilized black city, which already possess a profound community feeling, has come an intruder, a man from the British West Indies, a project to raise funds for "the establishment of a mighty Negro nation in Africa." He is Marcus Garvey, the "Black Moses" and founder of the Black Star Steamship Line and the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities-League of the World. Tonight's monster mass-meeting at Madison Square Garden was the timed and gilt which Garvey arranged as a he proposes to "pass the hat" among the colored persons of New York, holding daily secret sessions of Negroes from all parts of the United States and the West Indies at Liberty Hall, in West 138th street, culminating, as he leaves in the election of "this supreme highness the potentate, high highness the supreme deputy and other high officials who will preside over the destiny of the Negro peoples of the world until an African empire is founded." Sort of smacks of Aaron Burra, Fortunately, the great majority of colored persons of New York look upon Garvey as a P. T. Barnum, who is putting on a big show to amuse them. Unfortunately, there are a great number of uneducated Negroes who have been "impressed" and are subscribing from their hard earned wages to the furtherance of Garvey's indefinitely located African empire. Let us go among the Negroes of New York for a saunter and study their living problems. They have, indeed, be come very sensitive to the social and economic currents that are running around the earth today. Before the European war started, cutting off white immigration from America and taking white aliens back to the armies abroad, the Negroes in the North had plenty of rights, but no work. The South always has provided them with work, but gave them, they say, very little in the way of rights. The vacuum created in the industrial world of America by the scarcity of white alien labor, gave the Negroes their great chance. Where the People Came From Since 1914 there have been two distinct inhaves into New York. One came from the South and the other from the British and French West Indies. The effect upon New York has been to increase its pre-war colored population threefold. Harlem has an American Negro population of 120,000 and a foreign Negro population of 30,000. French Martinique has supplied 2,000, British West Indies 20,000 the Virgin Islands, for our Danish possession, 3,000; Africa itself 1000 and Cuba and Porto Rico 4,000. Thus we have sprinkled through the quarter black men who speak Spanish and French as well as those who speak English. When Negro talks about his rights he means security of life and to be free from discrimination insults which tend to humiliate him. He also claims the privilege of living which he claims is denied to him in the South. Behind it all is a demand for the abolition of litching. ```markdown ``` Where the People Came From In New York the occupational fields for the Negroes have been considerably broadened. It used to be extremely limited. Outside of running elevators, acting as personal servants and street cleaning, there once was nothing for them. They had even been replaced to work in the hotels by white aliens who placed the patrons near half so well. Now they have back again in the hotels, are doing long-term work upon the shocks, have been allowed to the unions of the building trades and are employed in factories and are driving big delivery trucks. Progress in Professional Lines Among postmaster and nurses the purpose of the Negro has been marked. Today there are two institutions colored demilitarized colorguard doctors, forty colored lawyers, and 162 social workers in the city. There are eleven colored policeman patrolling the streets of Harlem and other numerical departments, have also welcomed Individuals in Negro has made his way. Dr Leon T. Wright who served as a captain in the 19th Infantry has discharged a new method of vaccination, which was adopted by the New York State Board of Health and THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, AUG. 21, 1920 approved by the surgeon general of the United States army, Dr. H. Curtad Vincent, who recently reigned from the medical staff of the Bellevue Hospital, has left behind in surgical usage there a most important discovery. In Virtue W. Tandy the colored people of New York have a wonderful architect. He designed St. Philip's in the 1830s street, and the colored congregation in the world. The Rev. H. C. Bishop, its rector, told the writer that his church owned more than a million dollars' worth of property. Two members of the Board of Aldermen of New York city are Negroes. John E. Nail and Henry Parker are the largest Negro real estate dealers in Harlem, frequently handling deals involving millions of dollars. A canvass of the realty business developed the information that in the last eighteen months colored people have themselves invested more than $5,000,000 in Harlem apartments and dwellings. Charles W. Anderson and the internal revenue collector for the district, says they all hand when Negroes will own their city within this Philip Randolph, editor of the Messenger, a colored monthly magazine, is the candidate for state comptroller on the Socialist ticket. Paper Owns Its Own Plant The most influential Negro paper in New York is Titz Aur. owned and edited by Frederick R. Moore, who was a close personal friend of the late Booker T. Washington. James Weldon Johnson, who several years ago won the second prize for the best written editorial offered by the Public Ledger, is contributing editor of Mr. Moore's journal, the only Negro newspaper in New York that has its own plant. Mr. Johnson is also associated with Dr. W. E. R. Dulton, editor of the Crisis, a monthly magazine, and who probably is the most celebrated Negro in America today. Rosamond Johnson, brother of Editor Johnson, is a musical composer of note. The Negroes of Harlem have their own grocery stores and meat markets, their own savings and loan associations, and shortly two colored banks are to be put in operation. It is estimated that more than 5000 automobile license are held in the names of these colored residents. They have a theatre of their own the Lafayette, a plaushest at the corner of 137th street and Seventh avenue, where a versatile troupe of Negro actors present one hundred different acts from the historic Broadway fares. Over a dozen picture houses are in the district. All of which indicates small likelihood of rush to the jungles of Africa, chasing an empirical butterfly when they have an enquire of their own in Harlem.

Benners returned Friday from a motor trip to Maine. The Inspiration Gained by Northerners Who Make the Annual Trip to Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes (By WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT) Ep. President of the United States, in Philadelphia Public Ledger. Chaucer, in the opening lines of his "Canterbury Tales," says that April is the month in which, after shows have pierced the root of the drought of March, people long to go on pilgrimages. There is a happy group of public-operated people in this country, brought together by a common interest in the wonderful work of Hampton and Tuskegee, who are as regular in their April pilgrimage to those two shrines as ever were the pilgrims to the airline of Thomas a Becket. One who has accompanied them can understand the inspiration to better things and the prompting to a life of usefulness to others which every such visitor to Tuskegee or to Hampton feels. Booster Washington was born on the 5th of April, 1850. In his "Up from Slavery," he says he does not know when he was born; but after that book was written, a Mr. Burroughs, a son of his former owner, sent him the record of the births of his father's staves, giving the exact date. This is now Founder's Day at Tuskegee. The anniversary exercises at Hampton are held in the same month. In welcoming the pilgrims this year, Dr. Moton said that one of the great advantages from such visits was that the people of the North who associated with Negro race chiefly with Pullman porters, not sailors, janitors and boot-blacks were brought in contact with educated and cultivated people of the race in the faculty and officials of Tuskegee and in the student body; and were thus made to know the possibilities which education could work with a backward race and the earnest and successful effort which was being made to secure to them the opportunities to lead more useful lives. On those occasions graduates of the institution return to tell their stories of the spread of the evangel by them in ignorant Negro communities in the country districts of the South. The civic and community work done by them and the real progress made fill one with shame and the future. The pathos of the struggle of the Negro people come up from stories against the inevitable prejudice and contempt of those who have always been a free race stirs one's deepest sympathy. Washington, Then Moton. The death of Booker Washington seemed an irrefutable loss. Selected by General Armstrong to initiate and carry on the first vocational institute of learning conducted solely by black men for black men, he had become the leader of his people and was recognized as one of the great men of this generation. But this work in the uplift of the Negro, by teaching him the dignity of labor, its moral and educational value, and by training him in the proper methods of labor has been singularly fortunate in finding the right man for the right play. General Armstrong was the inventor of all industrial education in this country, and was a genius in developing it for the Negro. He was the superintendent intellectual father of Booker Washington, who was as necessary to the ultimate success of the movement as was General Armstrong himself. Dr. Frissell, who succeeded General Armstrong, seemed to have been assigned to supplement the General's work at Hampton, and under General Armstrong and Dr. Frissell there was prepared another Negro for the succession by twenty five years' training as first assistant to Doctor Frissell. He was Robert Russa Moton, Mr. Roosevelt, who was member of the board of trustees of Trussleger at the time of Dr. Washington's death and attended the meeting at which his successor was agreed upon, moved by the original nature of their task, said "I consider the selection of the successor of Doctor Washington as important for the country as the selecting of a President of the United States." Moton a Wise Choice. Dr. Moton was made principal of Ux- kegene to succeed Dr. Washington.

Truestee is, of course, the daughter of Hampton, and while there are differences in some of the problems, in the main their paths are parallel. Dr. Washington's father was a white man, whom he not know. It has been suggested that his ability and gems are to be attributed to his white blood. He is at pains in one of his books to answer this by pointing out that there are leaders of his race of force and ability who are full-blooded Negroes. Dr. Moton is one of these. He is a man of powerful physique and of very dark color. He is just publishing his autobiography. Those who have read Booker Washington's "Up from Slavery," and remember the charm and interest and inspiration of the story, will do well to read Dr. Moton's autobiography, which he calls "Finding a Way Out." Moton was born in 1867, after slavery had ceased to be. The story of his ancestry carries us close to his African origin. His father's mother lived to be 108 years old and was brought directly from Africa. His grandmother on his mother's side lived to be ninety-six years of age. She remembered her great-grand-father, who was brought slave from Africa, where he had been the son of a chief, and sold slaves to an American Slayer. Lured on board the ship, he was drugged and brought away with the victims he had sold. It will be difficult for crilies to trace Dr. Moton's talent and ability to any other than an African source or to find its existence in any white blood. Dr. Morton's story differs from that of Dr. Washington, in that his youth was spent immediately after the war and that he found sympathy and assistance from the family of the former slave owner in which he lived. His description of his struggles and the way in which he was led, on in his life's work in development of his race through the industrial work of Hampton and of Tuskegee's full of interest. He was a graduate of Hampton in General Armstrong's time, and came under his magnetic influence. He was first a student and then an associate in the government at Hampton and an angelic character, Dr. Friederl The book is a valuable addition to the literature and history of the growth of the Hampton and Tuskegee spirit into its present wonderful results.

DUTY OF THE VOTERS Granted the opportunity, it is undoubtedly the duty, as well as the privilege of the voters of the country to express their choice at the polls as to the men who shall enforce their laws as well as those who make them. Especially is this true in a year like this when a President is to be elected. This is true in an emphatic degree, as it applies to the Negro voters of the country, in the Northern States especially, where their votes can be cast without question and counted as cast. The past seven years of Democratic mistule have borne with greater harshness upon the Negro citizens than upon any other class of the community, though the whole country, especially the Northern business politicians in the saddle. True it is, that the North has justly carried this retributive justice as a punishment for its toleration of the situation of Negro suffrage in the South, which put the South in the saddle and kept it there. But it is to the interest of all advocates of just government to have a change of administration. In order that the Negro voters may their part in bringing about such a change they should be in a position to make their votes count in the North. Then they should be an effective organiza- tion of voters in all the North. They will well as men, the new state has migrated from the South three of longer residence. It is interest of all these elements in population that they should be cast their ballots in the election. We Republica will of the performance of who far as the interest concerned, the party has public or that failure. In default of a more effective instrument to serve the interests of the race, recourse must be had to the most available party in the field. The Presidential ticket nominated by the Republicans presents a program that promises to bring auspicious results for the Negro as well as for the country. It remains for the voters of the race to rally in well organized array and qualify themselves to exert an effective influence in the battle of the ballots next November. To do this, they must inform themselves thoroughly as to the issues of the campaign and the records of the candidates, especially those running for Congress, and comply with the requirements as to registration. To vote is a duty. Let there be no shinkers at the polls in this coming election. THE PARTY'S BEST ASSETS Chairman Will H. Hays of the Republican National Committee, in opening the State Campaign in Maine, is reported to have said among other things, that the women voters would be the best asset the Republican party would have. Coming right upon the heels of the action of the Legislature of Tennessee, in ratifying the adoption of the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, his utterance has peculiar significance. Tennessee was the thirty-sixth State to ratify this amendment, which provides that the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged on account of sex. To Susan B. Anthony is rightfully ascribed the honor of being the pioneer of the women's rights movement and the founder of the cause of equal suffrage in America. But she died before the victory was won, although the proposition was known as the Susan B. Anthony suffrage amendment. After the resolution was finally adopted by both houses of Congress, it required fifteen months to secure the necessary ratification by thirty-six states. Many of the States, including New York, had anticipated the federal amendment by removing the sex restriction on suffrage under the State law. But the coming Presidential election in November will be the first of its kind in which the women of all the States will be entitled to take part. It is somewhat peculiar that Tennessee, a Southern State, should have contributed the needed vote to make the amendment effective for this campaign. Most of the Southern States have opposed the suffrage amendment for the reason that they feared it would give the ballot to the colored women of that section, and that it would not be so easy to prevent them from exercising it as it had been with the men. The Republican policy of acquiescence in the disfranchisement of this class of voters has brought its own reward in putting in office a Democratic administration through the electoral votes of the solid South. Chairman Hays is right in his assumption that the women voters, and this includes women of all races and colors, would be the best asset the Republican party would have, but it is up to the party to utilize and conserve this asset. Congress shall have power to enforce the Nineteenth Amendment by appropriate legislation. It also had power to so enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, but it has failed to do it. Unless Republican Congressmen cultivate a greater degree of backbone in dealing with vital issues, this new asset of the party will be neutralized by their masterly inactivity. Assets of party value should have stalwart guardians. Elect Congressmen with backbone and courage. NEGRO BUSINESS GROWTH NEGRO BUSINESS GROWTH That legitimate business enterprises are growing among the Negroes of the United States is indicated by the statement made by Dr. Moton, in his annual address at the opening of the National Negro Business League, that today Negroes in America are operating successfully seventy-two banks, capitalized at $35,000,000 and doing an annual business of about $35,000,000. This was the twenty-first annual meeting of the League, which has since its inception under the leadership of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, exerted a same and healthy influence on the business progress of the race. That the some prudent policy has compiled under the presidency of Dr. Moton, was indicated by his caution to officers and members to "keep their heads level" and their "feet on the ground". At the same time plans were projected to enlist a larger and more sustained support for Negro newspapers and for cooperative effort to aid worthy and well directed business enterprises with capital for expansion and development. It was also proposed that the League affiliate with other strong race organizations in an effort to concentrate all available forces in helping to bring to America the full fruits of democracy and a square deal for every race and group in this country. The Keynote of the recent meeting held at Philadelphia was appropriately hailed as "Reorganization and Restoration". The recollection of Dr. Moton as president may be regarded as an endorsement of his sound and progressive policy, which was commended in the contention "That Negros to the same degree as others shall share the blessings and privileges of American citizenship, no matter and "ROUGHNECKS" IN GEORGIA We have received the portrait of a typical Georgia "cracker," published by the Atlanta Georgia and held by Uncle Reuben. It is evidently mounted as a part of the political propaganda in interest of Hardwick and Watson, the two demagogues who are selecting the votes of Georgia Democrats in their efforts to attain the offices of United States Senator and Governor, respectively. As the principal political capital of three two-wattles consists of stirring up racial hatred, the reason for their appeal to the type represented by "Uncle Reuben" is obvious. The manner of their appeal is conbed in part as follows. Uncle Reuben is strong for Hardwick and Watton. The opponents of these two candidates will tell you that the "Two Tone" will get their only votes from the roughnecks. That is not true; it probably IS true that MOST of the so-called "roughneck" will vote for Hardwick and Watton, and Hardwick and Watton are the ones who uncle Reuben's week is rough—But his eyes are set evenly in his head, and they look with steady gaze into years. Uncle Reulen hasn't got on a necklace. But there is the Bronze Cross of the Confederacy on the side of his coat. Uncle Reulen's head is covered with a hapless old wool hat. But it is a head that bows in service posture to no autocrat of Europe or America or Georgia. Uncle Reulen wears a wool shirt and it is not buttoned up. But there is hair on Uncle Reuben's chest, and in it is a heart that fears no man, that fears nothing except Almighty God and to do a mean and cowardly art. It is by such appeals as this, that such firebands as Hardwick and Watson hope to get into power through the votes of the "roughnecks" with the avowed intention of "keeping the Negro down," even if they have to keep "Uncle Reuben" and fix their trade down in the mud with him. It was through such demagogic wives that Hardwick got himself elected to Congress and finally to the Senate, at the same time accusing such fairnin' of white men as beloved in justice for the Negro of being "miger lovers." If the type of Georgians represented by "Uncle Reuben" continues to allow themselves to be fooled by the "Two Toms," there is faint hope for better times in Georgia. The "roughneck" belong to the past, and a new generation of Georgians should be able to discriminate between the demagogue and the true statesman. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, AUG. 28, 1920 VIEWS and REVIEWS By James Woldon Johnson, Contributing Editor A CURIOUS CASE. The newspapers generally carried an Associated Press despatch last week from Raleigh, North Carolina, which stated that Henry B. Varner, former president of the National Editorial Association, ex-Commissioner of Labor and Printing, and now chairman of the State Prison Board, had brought suit for $100,000 against R. Baxter McCary of Lexington, grand master of the colored Masqns of North Carolina and one of the wealthiest colored men in the State, for alleged alienation of Mrs. Varner's affection. And that he had also sued the wife for absolute divorce. The ground of the complaint is that McCary deliberately sought to and succeeded in wrecking the domestic life and happiness of H. B. Varner, the plaintiff, by invading Mr. Varner's home during his absence. Attachments have been put on all tangible and intangible holdings that can be discovered of R. B. McCary, the defendant. The North Carolina papers give fuller details of the affair than do the papers outside of the State. Mr. Varner is one of the most prominent white men in North Carolina, and his wife has for a long time been a leader in society, in club work and church work. It is reported that while Varner was in New York on business McCary was observed to enter the former's house. On being informed that McCary had done this on previous occasions while the husband was away, a number of citizens set a watch and saw McCary enter about 10 o'clock. Guards were placed around and a search was made of the house, nobody being found. Some of the citizens remained and continued the search, and finally located McCary in the basement. McCary was taken and placed in jail. Early the next morning, the North Carolina newspapers report prominent citizens held a hurried conference and delegated Mayor J. F. Hedrick to bear the colored man the message that if he valued his personal safety he had better leave town without delay, and that if he ever returned it would be at his peril. McCary is said to have left immediately for parts unknown. Varner returned from New York at once. On his arrival at home he went to a hotel and conducted a searching investigation. Following this he remained at the hotel until his wife had leit it to her old home in Kentucky to join her mother. This case has, of course, caused a tremendous sensation in North Carolina and throughout the South. But the most sensational element, to our mind, in the case is being overlooked. The question in our mind is, why, when a number of citizens found a colored man in the home of a prominent white citizen at night and alone with that citizen's wife, they did not raise the cry of rape or attempted rape, and forthwith honorably lynch him? Was it because McCary had $100,000 or more? Will those "defendants of Southern white womanhood" who declare that lynching must be the fate of any colored man who touches the hem of a white woman's garment, with or without her consent, take this North Carolina case as a precedent and hereafter pause long enough to look up prospective victims in Bradstreet before they pull the rape or apply the torch? This gives an entirely new economic slant on the question of lynching. Mr. Varner is of course, taking the only legal and the only civilized steps to be taken in the case. He is taking the stress which are being taken every day all over the country in similar cases. But that, in itself, makes the case still more curious. A ROMAN HOLIDAY IN MISSISSIPPI. They had a great time down in Lee County, Mrs. Tupelo, one day last week. A holiday at Tupelo, the county site; then and only people came in to the surrounding country. Excursion were run, business was suspended, stores were closed, and tarmar and their families came to town dressed in their sunny clothes. The excursion was a hanging. The leopard from Tupelo stated that the crowd was so great that the local athlete could staged wrestling and boxing matches to entertain the crowd while they wanted to the big event of the day. In which men and at chap, tupelo in a hawk and teape have it. Hangings in Mrs. Tupelo, except when by the process of live may must, according to the law, be technically private, so investors bound time was a certain measure, the contract. And this reserve more than 5,000 people gathered. It is not a matter of their babies up so that any could be held in the room, nor be living from the goblet. At one time the crowd pressed so hard that the deputy sheriff had to try to give to keep them from local hangings on the tree. The dispatch stated that the man hanged was Charles I. Mat Hall, and did not add that he was a lieger, it must be taken for granted that he was a whore man. He bring the case, the curiosity which drew such a crowd can be accounted for. Hangings of what men to any crime whatsoever are so rare in Mississippi or any other Southern State that it is probable that those who witnessed the event never saw one like it before and is unlikely that any one who was present will have long enough to another of its kind. Charles I. Mat Hall must have been a whore man; the lynchings of Negroes are so commonplace in Mississippi that it is scarcely possible that the hanging of one conflict is --- THE BATTLE OF WAFSAV. battle of Warsaw is one of the cliffs yet two early to say definitely, but that the Russians have attained a to hold permanent for many years to in driving the Russians back after gates of Warsaw is astonishing with a great deal of caution by the in papers in this country. The tall of it such a foregone conclusion that it is little short of a miracle. Those come seem to suspect that after a sol-shevic trick behind the whole two obvious results that may follow Perhaps the battle of Warsaw is one of the eleventh battles of the world. It is yet two early to say definitely, but from all appearances it seems that the Russians have sustained a temporary setback which may be made permanent for many years to come. The success of the Poles in driving the Russians back after the latter had reached the very glates of Warsaw is astonishing. The new it is still taken with a great deal of caution by the most rapidly anti-Bolshevist new papers in this country. The tall of the Polish capital was considered such a foregone conclusion that its relief strikes the Western world as little short of a miracle. Those who hoped most for such an outcome seem to suspect that after all there may be some kind of Bolshevic trick behind the whole thing. There are two obvious results that may follow the situation as it is to-day. The Russians may modify the terms which are being considered at Mjnsk, and the Poles may take advantage of Russia's inability to impose her original terms and make peace. Or the Poles, their heads turned by their recent successes, may refuse the Russian terms altogether and decide to carry on the war to the end of regaining the Polish boundaries of 1792. There are diplomatic hints that can be read between the lines of the news which indicate that this will be Poland's course, unless she is effectually restrained by England and Italy. The attitude of France and also the attitude of the United States would encourage her in such a course. If Poland is wise she will make peace on the most advantageous terms she can exact. It is evident that Russia does not want to fight Poland or anybody else. What Russia wants is peace. But if Poland returns to the contest, Russia will fight. And what chance would Poland ultimately have against Russia? None. The reverses of the last ten days which Poland, a little country with its thirty millions of population, has inflicted are barely more than a scratch upon Russia with its territory which covers a continent and its one hundred and eighty millions of population. The Russian bear is a curious animal. You get him mad, and he comes at you full, tilt, growling and clawing, and sweeping aside everything before him in his onward rush. Then you manage to hit him a whack over the nose, and he turns tail and runs back to rub that organ. But as soon as it stops hurting him a bit, he will come back at you fiercer than before. And yet, the thought continually rises, is Russian military power a myth? Before the great war, the Russian army was the nightmare of all the powers of Western Europe. All diplomatic dealings took Russia's inexhaustible military resources in men into consideration. It was conceded that she could put ten million men in the field if pressed to it. And so it was that France felt that her security against Germany rested in the army of her ally, Russia. The first months of the war seemed to warrant the trust which France put in Russia. The Russian armies were mobilized and put in action quicker than the world expected. Germany had underestimated Russia's ability to accomplish such a feat. She had felt sure that she could crush France long before the bear could rouse himself, and would then have lots of time to turn to the east and attend to his case. But four weeks after the declaration of war, the Russian horde was hammering at the main passes of the Carpathian Mountains into Austria. They seized these passes, took Lemberg, turned Przemysl, invested Tarnow, and threatened Cracow. The world watched this onward march with amazement at first, and then with confidence. It seemed certain that Russia was to be the savior of Western Europe. It was confidently expected that her armies would take Cracow, the gate into Germany, and that they would be the first of the Milies to be on the way to Berlin. Then suddenly, apparently without reason, the Russian army melted away before the assaults of the Germans. A similar thing, though on a smaller scale has happened at Warsaw. Is Russian military power a myth? RUNNING A LITTLE REPUBLIC He Hon Franklin D. Roosevelt, who is armed for some year as an aviation secretary of the Navy, is running on the Democratic ticket as the candidate for Vice President of the United States. Candidate Roosevelt has been doing considerable talking with his uncle in various sections of the country, in seeking to impress his tell a story with the necessity of putting him in and in association on the ticket. Governor Oz of Ohio, into office, public likes to be humbugged was attributed to that great showman, P. T. Barnum, while "Hungry Joe", the banco artist, insisted that sucker is born every minute. The Pittsburgh American drops into office to say seven years of real hard knocks. Makes its lightship of Jummy Joe. On the same principle that a child who has been hurt once, is supposed to dread fire, we suppose. In the course of his extensive remarks to the press, for causing the world through Mr. Wilson's League of Nat- ture and the danger threatening the country, with some mythical mil- lions, I am told to be raised for the Kepublican candidate Roosevelt made the following modest confession. You know I have had something to do with the running of a couple of little pupils. I am sure that I wrote Hay- son, my friend, and I do say I think it is a pretty good constitution Big view on the recent revelations by polished investigators as to the way things have kept run in Haiti under the rule of American marines, it would have come better policy for Candidate Rescue to have left the responsibility for that kind of government with his chief Secretary Daniels. The American屈服 of Haiti, with its blood reckoning of militarism, rage and persecution, is unnassed. American circumstances, nothing of which the country can be proud. On the contrary, the subversive role of Haitian repression by terrorizing the troops of a normally terrifying, was made intelligible through a smaller scale than the German invasion of Belgium, and the Democratic candidate of New President complacently promised to have something to this serious insignia of a militarist Mr. Reeph will undoubtedly carry this off with all his heart. The death is also united of Edith Henry Clay of the Waventham, Dorset. It was an able and original writer with an eye for the Humour, a title of the latter paper. The Bingham, and some Bingham towns. Whenever we see of a man sending his love we know that he has either until now put forth the best just a gift. He are two harems that produce coats, and a recent sale we understand why Edith Henry has incurred the estate of his beloved sister, so many years. A personal biography in the Rock Hill History, 1910, tells the world: For New York Collegiate Washington D.C. founder of the Royal Sons of Abraham and Daughters of Jerusalem, in the city this week in interest of the order. This founder showed a generous disposition in his choice of a title for his order, which makes it more than ordinarily impressive. Editor Harry C. Smith of the Cleveland teacher waved glutton over the wonderful showing he made in Ohio primary, in his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Secretary of State. He received between 50,000 and 60,000 votes. The Gates says. It was indeed a wonderful result and will prove helpful to our people throughout Ohio and the country for years to come. It is an opening wedge which will undoubtedly be taken advantage of in the near future. As far as we are concerned, it is but a beginning. Truly, this is the year for editor in politics. Commenting on a racial tendency the San Antonio, Tex., Sentunel says: The Negro is easy to give his confidence and as ready to complain when stung. When dealing with his own people he invariably trusts himself to the less competent and unreliable of his race. Instances illustrating this failure are to be found on every side every day. But this is a failing common po humanity of all colors. The sect that the public likes to be humbugged was attributed to that great showman, P. T. Barnum, while "hungry Joe", the bunco artist, insisted that sucker is born every minute." The Pittsburgh American drops into crime to say seven years of real hard knocks. Makes the light sky of Jimmy Fox. On the same principle that a child who has been burnt once, is supposed to dread fire, we suppose. Nashville streets must be pretty bad when the Nashville globe is moved to protest in the rare form of an editorial article, in which it says: There is no city in the South Nashville's sure that has as many bad streets as Nashville has. It seems, however, that only certain portions of the city are angle tel. Are we not all taxpayers? Evidently the Negro, taxpayers' are expected to be content with the privilege of paying taxes, while street improvements go to other sections of the city. Editor William J. Bryan, in the Commander, is out to defend the Volstead act. He says, The friends of prohibition should require senatorial candidates and all candidates for congress to pledge themselves to present any backwarrant step from being taken in the enforcement of the greatest piece of moral legislation that has been enacted during the past century. Where matter political party has a candidate for the senate or house who will pledge himself to uphold the dry cause, a dry candidate for the senate or house who will pledge himself to uphold the dry cause, a dry candidate, where the permit should immediately be put on the notice by petition. There is a legacy the forerunners who would bring about the enforcement of some of the constitutions of amendments, say the 14th and 15th, for example. A significant by product of the world war is the announcement in the American Legion Weekly of August 13 that its circulation reached the estimated figure of 750,000 copies. With a paper it had shattered an previous circulation record by reaching the figure of 625,000 on its first birthday. As the organ of the American Legion, composed of the officers who took part in the latest war, and taking a wide awake interest in the affairs of the day, it is bound to exert a strong influence on the affairs of the country. The purpose of the Legion are defined as follows in the preamble to the constitution: To uphold and defend the constitution of the United States of America; to maintain law and order; to foster and perpetuate a one hundred percent Americanism; to preserve the integrity and morals of our association in the Great War; to mobilize a sense of individual obligation to the community, state and nation; to combat the autocracy of both classes and the masses; to make right the master, of might; to promote peace and good will on earth; to guard and transmit to posterity the principles of justice, freedom and democracy; to conserve posterity the principles of justice, freedom and democracy; to conserve and secure our comradeship by our devotion to mutual helpfulness. These objects honestly pursued, with zeal and discretion, should make the organization and its official organ an alloy of good citizenship in all parts of the country.

Wis.—There is no Fiction in this Story and no Exagregation. (By WILLIAM PICKENS) The Black Man boarded the train Chicago for Beloit. The whitegers were strung out comfortably in a seat, with vacant places located. But the Black Man sought a total cant seat and sat in it. It coloured, you know how it is, are real democracy, in that all take any person on a court, take any person on a court, insisted, but they do not take a seat inside any place, possibly prove to be a white.

Perhaps never had he thought or felt how it is for a white man in the North to a black man in the South I wished I had you.

I am in receipt of an announcement from Mr. and Mrs. John Avery Hagan, Sr. of New Haven, Conn., telling of the marriage of their daughter, Mcken Eugenia, to Dr. John Taylor Williams of Morristown, N. J. The happy event occurred on Wednesday, August 11, at New Haven, and the couple will be at home after September 1 at 155 Speedwell Avenue, Morristown. I am but one of a host who will send to Helen Hagan congratulations and best wishes for her future happiness. The many thousands who have sat and listened with rapt pleasure to her wonderful playing will certainly have a desire that the great joy which she has brought to them on countless, occasions will be multiplied and over in her new life. It is to be hoped that in becoming 'Mrs. John Taylor Williams, Helen Hagan is not to be lost to her friends. I am in receipt of a letter signed: "Very respectfully yours. A Susanneaux." The postmark on the envelope shows that the letter was mailed August 20 before 9:30 p.m., and it was sent out from Station J, which is at 309 West 125th street. That is all there is in the way of showing where the letter comes from, and in addition, the writer of the letter took pains to print each letter used in forming the words. Now, as a matter of fact, the contents of the letter are interesting and present the writer's point of view so clearly and intelligently that I can't for the life of me see why so much pains was taken to cover up the writer's identity. Most anonymous letters are scandalous or vituperative and the writers thereof usually have well-founded fear of personal chastisement or legal responsibility in case their personality is made known. But there is nothing of the sort in this case and the letter really opens up a question which would be of interest to the readers of this column. But--under no circumstance can anybody, male or female, get this reviewer to give an airing to their opinions or enter into a controversy or allow his readers to hear the arguments of "A Subscriber, or anybody else unless the wouldbe controversialist is willing to at least let the writer of this column know who it is doing the talking. It is a well-known and thoroughly understood newspaper law that the identity of writers of letters or givers of news is held absolutely sacred and inviolable in a newspaper office. In fact, in no other profession is it so absolutely essential that a newspaper man must protect at all hazards the sources of his information. It is foolishly unnecessary for anyone to write anonymously to a reputable newspaper, and it is doubly unnecessary when the subject matter is of a character that one can be proud of. If "A Subscriber" wants to air his (or her) views through this column the invitation is open and unrestricted, the only condition being an inconvenient time, your name and an address for my own information it will not be used unless you desire. --- Joseph L. Turrier will be presented to a New York audience in piano recital on Sunday afternoon, September 12, at 3:30 o'clock, at St. Marks Hall. West 18th street, by the Universal Academy of Culture, an organization of which George W. Abbott is the president. Mr. Turrier called to see me and gives me the information that he has for the past three years been a student of the piano at the New England Conservatory, Boston. He is a native of Greenville, S. C., and has in turn been a student at the Harbison Institute, Abbeyville, S. C., the Benedict College, Columbia, S. C., and Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga. He New York record, to raise funds for his education if he further medical education. Of course it is not possible for me to say anything about Mr. Turrier's ability as a pianist, and I have to acknowledge that he had not been heard of before, but he impresses me as an earnest and deserving young man, and it is to be hoped that we will be given a splendid audience and an opportunity to make good.

Jeanette Carter, Manager. Washington, D. C.—A startling fact was revealed recently when Helen Barnes, a white girl seventeen years old, reported to the police that she had been attacked and robbed by a colored man, and when confronted by the police, for additional evidence, confessed that she made the statement of the attack because she had not worked during the week, although her mother was of the opinion that she had been working. The girl was to have brought home dollars and fifty dollars, and not having the sum told her the falshood to mislead her mother. This brings to mind a scene where two arrests had been made in the case of a woman who claimed that a colored man had stolen her watch, which was later found in the home of a friend. Investigation disclosed the fact that she was at the house of the friend at the very time she claimed she was was laid. Fully two hundred young colored people, mostly women and girls, were appointed as clerks (operatives), in the Bureau of the Census, during the week. The basic salary is $500 per annum, plus the $240 bonus. Most of the appointees were assigned to duty punching. Numbers have also been made verifiers. While this work is temporary, this is an excellent opportunity for those who have qualified as first grade clerks, or for the third grade examination, although those qualifying for the third grade are usually put on fine piece work. Price-periece work are known to draw handsome salaries, one hundred dollars for two weeks' work being the sum received by a new appointee. James M. Miller, as young man well known in musical concert, has been organized and trained a band of musicians recently. Mr. Miller and his band have appeared in public concerts, giving programs at the Howard Playground, the Phelps Center, and other public amusement places. Mrs. Betty Martin, a colored woman living in Anacostia, learned how chargers play the pocketbook game on uninteresting person, which he on good Mrs. Martin the sum of fifty dollars. A pocketbook was picked up in her presence and it was stated that the pocketbook contained a large sum of money in which she could share if she chose to invest a little money in advance. She did so and the individual made his getaway. Another business enterprise has been incorporated. The Thrift Commercial Company has been organized for the purpose of opening and operating a chain of grocery stores in the city. A large building has been purchased to be used as headquarters. It has been estimated that the colored clerks in and near the District of Columbia need $100,000 per year or $475 per day, for raw material from the grocery store. All the clerks open mostly with the white trade and it is significant to note that the men and women are waiting from their shoes to come in business. There are colored clerks in white store, but we can at least have colored clerks in colored stores.

The Interboro, Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, and all elevated lines. Corona to Concy Island for Sc.; Corona to any point on the subway, or the elevated lines to Greater New York for Sc. Corona is much nearer the Grand-Central Station, Times Square, Pennsylvania Station, the theatrical district, and the shopping district of New York City than Harlem. Corona is nearer the great downtown business section than Harlem or the Bronx. Corona has splendid schools, beautiful homes, and is an ideal place in which to livet Corona is fifteen minutes from the most rapidly growing section of New York City, namely, Long Island City. Here millions are being spent in large industrial plants. We have room in Corona for 10,000 live, wide-awake, progressive families. Land and homes in Corona to-day are much cheaper than in any section of Manhattan, but this will not be so long. Corona offers to-day the same opportunities Harlem offered twenty years ago. PARTICIPATING OWNERSHIP The only thing that will relieve the present housing condition is to build new homes. Mr. L. S. Reed, the Real Estate Operator of Long Island, is planning to build on a large scale first class, up-to-date apartment houses. This will be a God-send to the thousands of our people, all of whom may participate in the ownership of these buildings. It is impossible to invest in Real Estate to-day to a better advantage than that which is offered in the wonderful growing sections of Long Island, of which Corona is the most desirable. We turn away hundreds of people weekly who are seeking apartments and homes in Corona. We hope by the participating ownership plan to make it possible for all such to live, in modern apartments at the lowest possible cost.

The presence of quite a number of visitors to the city, who have heard of America's most unique colored playhouse, is apparent at each performance. One of the best features of the bill is the dramatic playlet—"A Woman's Way"—played by Maud Jones, H. L. Peyor, Arthur Ray, Ruth Carr and Katie Shipley. While the role filled by Miss Jones calls for emotional acting, which she does in a manner as to bring her nothing but praise, the excellent work of the other members of the cast is not overlooked. A playlet, with an absorbing theme and presented by a well-balanced cast, makes a winning combination. Visitors who have been anxious to see the Lafayette Players in the drama may get a sample of what this famous organization is doing by witnessing a performance of "A Woman's Way." "It Pays to be Crazy" a musical melange, is the most pretentious offering on the program Headed by "Dink" Stewart, who has a way at making them laugh all his own, the company, sixteen in number, pleasingly, entertains in comedy, dance and song. Charles Olson, Will A. Cooke and Ed Thompson are among the other performers, while "Sir" Olson and Margaret Simms band out the biggest surprises, the toucher peaking lines, singing and dancing the veteran, while the petrine Margaret does a song and dance the hipster. The A-200 get-off of the A-200 group is a very good time to be in the area of the area of the group is good to be in the area of the group.

Regiment Armory on September 16. Entry blanks are out for a grand set of Athletic games by the B. M. C. Committee. Granted United Order of Old fellows, under the auspices of the Salem-Crescent Athletic Club, to be held at the 71st Regiment Armory, Park avenue and 44th street. Thursday afternoon, September 16, 1920, during the week of the Old fellows convention. Featuring the program of six track events is a special race at 300 yards, a memorial race to Lloyd La Beau, late lamented track champion of the Salem-Crescent club, who also captained an all-airmen contracted while serving in the Army. This event will have as starters the best sprinters of the race, including Roy Moore, of Salem, former champion 240 yard runner, who is in training at Saratoga, Rent Hermandez and William Ashley of the Salem Club, Clarence Sherman and Herman Foster of Sherman, and Geo. Burwell and William Powell at Alpha. The 600 yard run will have Sandy Braun of Salem on the honor mark. He will compete short handicaps to such good men as the Granger brothers, Sherman, Trottman, Ellison, Hall and several other star middle distancers. St Christopher is expected to enter her entire cross country team in the two mile run. The team, with such cricketer distances as McDougald, Stokley, Mitchell, Goff and Williams, will surely carry off many of the prizes in this event. All the local clubs have their young movies pointing for the 440 yard race for beginners and a lively contest is promised by the future greats. Manager Edwin Jones of the Salem Crescent A. C. is angling for a dual meet with the Pioneer A. C. a white organization of Jersey City. William Duffley Solem's basketball star and former printer is acting as advisor, to this club's string of youngsters. THE NEW YORK AVE. SATURDAY, AUG. 26, 1920. BY JOHN BRUNOON tic events in the staudjum at Antwerp closes August.23. The athletes representing Uncle of the track and field events with the over points. Firtland, the runner up in the points american athletes fulfilled the expectations of itclassing the world's best in the games, the offered in several events has served to shake of confidence we acquired through our vicpiads. The Olympic athletic events in the stadium at Antwerp closed on Monday afternoon. August.23. The athletes representing Uncle Sam were the winners of the track and field events with the overwhelming score of 216 points. Firland, the runner up in the points, garnered only 105. Although the American athletes fulfilled the expectations of the folks at home by outclassing the world's best in the games, the unexpected reverses suffered in several events has served to shake us up from the spirit of confidence we acquired through our victories in previous Olympiads. America showed plainly her dearth of good distance men by failing to win one event above the 200 metres, excepting the 3,000-metre team race in which H. H Brown of Boston finished first. had the colored bag not taken ill. Sol Butler, who is an excellent perimeter, besides being the best broadumper ever developed in America, was only entered in the jump at Antwerp there. In the 10,000-metre run contested on Thursday, Earl Johnson, of whom great tumps had been expected, fell a victim to the string of misfortunes which followed the stars on the team. Johnson was taken with severe cramps on the 15th lap of the race while running well up with the leaders, and was forced to leave the track. This left only his rival, Fred Faller, to qualify for the final from the American entrants. The best Faller could do in the final was to finish seventh, just failing to score a point. From the form that Faller showed, Johnson would surely have beaten him AT MIDNIGHT, SUNDAY LINCOLN T (KINDLY DONATED BY THE DRESSING RO PREMIER Johnson Pails in 10,000 Metres. ON THE CURDER PATH H. F. V. Edwards, England's best spinner, who is a Negro, finished third in both the short dashes at Antwerp. Edwards equaled the time of Padeck, winner of the 100 metres, in his heat, and registered the best performance in the 200 metres when he stepped the distance in 21 4+5 seconds in the second heat. The two men chosen over Thos. Anderson to represent America in the 50-10 weight were eliminated in the first trials. Anderson would surely have gained a place in the finals as he has been consistently the marks made by the last two men to place. It is more than probable, too, that Cliff Mitchell, the doughy little marathoner of the St. Christopher Club, would have finished far in the van of the three or four of the runners wearing the U.S. shield in the marathon race held on Sunday. Plans are on foot to tender Johnson and Butler a reception on their return to the States. Both have been entered in the Salem games, pending their arrival in time to compete. Cross country captain John Godf has issued a call to his squad and they responded in large number on Sunday morning at McCombs Park for their initial workout of the season. The colored clubs should have as many delegates as possible present at the coming Metropolitan Association elections to protest vigorously the recent unfair tactics of officials at the different meetings and particularly the Olympic Committee for the rough deal they put over on Theo Anderson and Clifton Mitchell in not sending them to Antwerp. If these things are allowed to pass without any reemphoration on the part of the Negro Clubs they will never be remedied. The second string men were the mainstars of the U.S. Olympic team. With few exceptions, the best performers in every event on this side either last out through injury or finished in the rear at Antwerp. Edwards, the English sprinter proved his class by finishing third in a blanket finish with Paddock and Kirksey in the 100 metres at Antwerp. Incidentally he defeated both Scholz and Murchison. The dark races were more conspicuous in the Olympics than any of the previous games. Japan, China, Africa the Phillipines and Siam were some of the non-Caucasian countries represented. Billy Quesal, the Vale athletic coach, was on hand to watch the athlebs perform at the Savin Rock meet. After seeing Evans run in the half mile, Quesal immediately made overtures to Sandy in an effort to have him matriculate at Yale. P. J. White. Salem's best sprinter has taken up his abode permanently in the city of Akron, O., where he is employed by the Goodrich Rubber Co. This is quite a loss to the 133rd street organization, whose half mile team of White, Jones, Verwaven and Morse, was expected to clean up during the indoor season. Percy Verwaven, who is in the employ of the International Mercamile Marathon, was in Antwerp a few weeks ago. Percy had to leave on the return trip to the U. S. A., before the Olympics commenced. Our idea of rough luck. Another chance for a Negro athlete to have his name inscribed on the Olympic honor roll as a winner was lost when Sol Butler injured his leg. Butler failed to qualify by 2 contenders in the broad jump, but it is doubtful whether he could have jumped in the final due to the accident he received, even though he had qualified on his own trial. It is a peculiar coincidence that on the two occasions a colored athlete was conceded to be a more winner in an Olympic event: they should mean with injuries that deprived them of a mental AT MIDNIGHT, SUNDAY, AUG. 29TH, 1920 LINCOLN THEATRE (KINDLY DONATED BY MRS. DOWNS) THE DRESSING ROOM CLUB'S PREMIER MUMMERY WILL BE GIVEN BY THE FOLLOWING MEMBERS OF THIS MATCHLESS ORGANIZATION OF THEATRICAL AUTHORS, ARTISTS AND MUSICIANS. Mon and Frye Chapelle and Spencerie Cypripedium and Dreyton Cynthia Brothers Lepine Lou Clarence Toddle Edward Dabney Paul Pleyd Clarence Dotson John Cooper Black Carl Sanusel Wilson Wilbur Sweatman Wilhelm C. Prins James E. Lightfoot Tompie Carter Charles S. Gilpin Edgar Connor Wiliam Vodery Shepherd N.

Gibba Clarence Muse Perry Bradford H. Quallie Clark J. A. Shipp A. T. Brooks Peter Jones Will A. Cooke All pledged to appear and give a better entertainment than has been seen at any theatre this season. Sol Butler, who is an excellent premier, besides being the best broad jumper ever developed in America, was only entered in the jump at Antwerp, therefore could not compete in any other event, even though the injury he sustained had helped efficiently to permit it. For reasons which will not be known until the team returns, John-On did not start in either the 10-kilometre individual cross country run nor the team cross country event at the same distance. Plans are under negotiations to have the American team engage in dual meets with the French or. English teams, either at Porsche stadium near Paris or at Stanford Bridge, England, before sailing for home. The team is expected home around the 20th of September and preparations are now being made for an elaborate welcome reception. In the memorable 100 metre race at Stockholm, Sweden, in 1912, Howard P. Drew looked to be a pure winner, only to pull a tendon in his semi-final heat. Ralph Craig whom drew had defended decisively in the tryouts, eventually won the event. Foster Takes 300-Yard Dash Discuss Gauger Displaying the form that recalled to the minds of the onlookers the days when he was one of the best sprinters in the district. Herman ("Sharkey") Foster of the St. Christopher Clob raced to victory in the 200 yd dash handicap at the games of the Young Men's Division Union held at City Field, Newark, N. J. Saturday afternoon, August 19. Foster was content to finish an easy second in his heat, but in the final went right out at the crack of the gun and led the field by five yards at the finish; time 12 seconds. The St. Christopher boys scored again when their team took second place in the 17-8 miles medley relay. The Parish House team would most likely have won this event had George Williams run the mile leg of the race instead of Sid Jackson, who is far from his best form. Both Williams and Jackson lost a chance to annex a prize when the two mile run was started without them on their marks. This event was run with only four men starting, either of which Williams or Jackson could have given liberal, handicaps, and beat at the distance. The officials did not exert themselves to find the two St. C., representatives when the race was called, however, so they had the pleasure of watching the event from the side lines. L. Gaskell, the former Kings County athlete, added another prize to his growing collection by placing third in the 100 wl. run from the 20 wl. mark. Gaskell ran unattached, which bears out the rumor that he is about to cast his bat with a club of his own race. Frans Wies 200 in Copenhagen Evans Wins in Connecticut Meet Savin Rock, Conn., Aug. 14--Running from scratch, Sandy Evans of the Salem Crescent A. C., of New York Captures the 800 yard run, the feature event of the games held by the Knights of Columbia here today. The games were run off on the old ball grounds at the end of the town and the improvised track was a wretened one. Some parts of the field over which the running track was measured off were covered with grass a foot high Bacharach Giants Take Two From The Chicago Giants In a double-header attraction against the Chicago Giants last Sunday at Ebbett's Field, home of the Brooklyn Nationals, the Bacharach Giants added two more games to their already long string of victories. The games last Sunday were the first the Bacharachs have played in this city since they returned from their invasion of the West. Reports had gained credence that the famous Eastern team was not working well following the succession of defeats handed to them by the several clubs of the Western cities. Dark rumors were afloat telling of internal troubles between the players which had gone beyond Captain Dick Redding's control. If said rumors were true, Managers John Connor and Baron Wilkins certainly must have worked wonders in the short time the team has been back home. All the players seemed on the best of terms. Undoubtedly there existed no outward signs of a feud unless it was between Johnny Pugh and "Rick" Handy, to see who could get down to first base faster. At no time during either game did the Chicago ball club have the Bacharachs in danger. The home boys were always masters of the situation. Despite this fact, good ball was played by both teams in the opening engagement. Starting right off in the second innning, the Bacharachs sailed into Pitcher Luther's delivery and did not stop till one of their men had rushed the plate with a lone tally which developments proved would have been enough to win the game. With this small lead, Cannon Ball Dick Reddling and the Bacharachs main backstop, Julian Rojo, worked true to form and the Westerners were kept scoreless. To add to their battery's good feeling, the Bacharachs drove across four more gains in the fifth innning, one in the sixth and one in the seventh, making their total seven to the Chicago giants nothing. Bacharach Fielding Perfect. While it is true that Redding and Kroo deserve the credit for the last out administered to the Chicago Counts last Sunday, we do not hesitate to say that they were wonderfully supported by their teammates. The addition of Jimmy Lyon5 to the Bathurst out Evans allotted handups up to 55 yards in the half mile. Despite the bad footing he worked through the field of twenty starters and on the half lap had caught all but Cunningham and Carey of the Paulist and Mohawk clubs of New York, who had 22 and 24 yards handicap respectively. For a time it looked as if Cunningham would be returned the winner, but Evans was not to be denied and entering the home stretch he set sail after the Paulist man just mipping him at the tape. The time 2 minutes 1 set, was exceptional for the track. Several white clubs of New York, had entries in the meet. The Salem-Crescent, with Evans, was the only colored organization represented. Evans was scheduled to start in the two-mile run from scratch with E. Lovetso, the former New England champion but declined the issue after his exhausting effort in the 1891 RALEIGH, N. C.

Pierce, Handy, Lundy and Marcelles never went better in their lives than they did last Sunday. Second Game Listless An accident to one of their players in the very first inning of the second game did much to unserve the Chicago team. Lyons had gotten on first base and in an attempt to steal second was thrown out cleanly by Duncan, the Chicago backstop. Beckwith, the western stop, received the throw and in tagging Lyons received the throw and in tagging Lyons it was necessary for Beckwith to withdraw from the game and indications point to his being kept out of play for week or ten days. In the absence of Harris, the Bacharach medicine man, South administered first aid to the Chicago ballplayer. Assist the aid of their star shortstop the Chicago Giants seemingly lost heart. The one-run that they collected in their first time at bat was quickly overcome by the Bacharach in the second inning when the latter hammered out three runs.

Williams, c. M. Paste. L. Arthie and J. for Jennings to the MUSICIANS Miss Rac, the wonderful little tennis player from Jamaica, is well known her debut in this country in 1918 by gaining first leg on the local Woman trophy of the New York Tennis Association, in that organization's annual tournament, celebrated her third victory last Saturday by becoming permanent possessor of that huge piece of silver. In 1918 Miss Rac's opponent in the final was Miss Lucy Slow of Washington, D.C., several times National Champion, and until that time without a peer among her sex. Miss Rac won the admiration of the American public by putting Miss Slow out in straight sets. At the end of the playing season, the little Jamaican girl returned to the West Indies leaving her word that she would try again the next year in an effort to have her name twice engraved on the Lelia Woman trophy. True to her word Miss Rae was among the entrant, in last year's play for the Lela Walker trophy. Miss Slow after meeting strong competition all the way through the various pounds of the tourney, met Mrs. Lotie Wade, a coming New York player, in the semi-final round. These ladies battled three hard sets for the honor of meeting Miss Rae who had reached the finals in a different bracket. The first set went to Miss Slow, but Mrs. Wade came right back and took the second. Miss Slow's experience told in the deciding set and the Washington lady again met Miss Rae in the finals for the costly trophy. We had been informed the day of their contest that Miss Slow had vowed not to smile during their contest till she had mastered the little jamaican woman. - Forced to Smile All during the first set of their match, Miss Slow clung to her row if the third of her row was truly true. Though there were brilliant plays on either side of the net, the Washington woman was forced to give way before the middle of the second set to cleanly and cleverly did her opponent pass her. The second set proved the last and the elimination in these latter second sets being the same as at last. Once Miss Slow had played two years in succession, the Louisiana woman without even winning one set. History Came Near Repeating In the many rounds of the elimination THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, AUG. 28, 1909 for the recent national tournament, history came near repeating itself. Though many players of calibre had to be curved before receiving the finish, Miss Rae played her way successfully and Miss Slow and Mrs. Wade after encountering such racquet wielders as Mrs. Burnett of Monckton, New Jersey, Mrs. Thomas of Williamabridge and Mesdames Madison, Cornick and Norman of the several Harper tennis clubs, again found themselves opposed to each other in the semifinals. Each was very eager for the opportunity of trying her hand at dethrining Miss Rae. A large crowd was on hand Friday afternoon, August 20 when they took the court for their game. Mrs. Wade started in at her Washing- ton opponent like the was going to beat her a love set. The score was 5-1 in Mrs. Wades favor before Mrs. Slow seemed able to get her hearing. The lat- ter then flashed some of the tennis which had brought her national honors in years gone by and almost before the crowd knew it, brought the score to 5-5 in games. She then surprised all by taking the next game making the score 6-5 in her favor. Mrs. Wade then rallied and won the next three games thereby taking the set-score 8-0. The second set went to Miss Slow due to Mrs. Wade's contentment to try and tie her opponent out while she rested herself. The score was 6-3. In the last set, Miss Slow got away to a three game lead before the New Yorker got a game. Miss Slow then saw another which made the score 4-1. The score then shifted to 4-2, 4-3 and 5-3. Mrs. Wade to some skillful racket wielding overcome this lead and won the set and match 7-5. Miss Rec Triumphs On the final day, Saturday, August 21, the two finalists in ladies singles met. Each seemed keyed up to the minutes. About nine hundred spectators graced the stands and chairs facing the courts. The first set went to Mrs. Wade to the great surprise of the audience. Miss Rae came right back and took the second in easy fashion. Mrs. Wade was plainly working her old plan of battle of getting a commanding lead, and then beating her opponents down with fatigue while she regained her own strength. The score of the first set was 10-8 in favor of Mrs. Wade. The last set saw each more determined to conquer. Miss Rae won the first and second games and Mrs. Wade won the third. Miss Rae increased her lead when she took the fourth game. With the score standing 5-1 against her Mrs. Wade battled manfully and brought it to "four all". Bad Decisions At this stage of the game, there came two close decisions by the linemen, both of which went against Mrs Wade. One of them was plainly visible to every member at the press table and should have been awarded to the New York woman. The young man on the line was completely bearded when asked for a decision of the play. In his experience he allowed the remark of a new spectator to sway his hand he exclaimed "our" only to be rejudged by every one who saw the ball land on the other line. We were not enough to this play to see it and therefore reserve our opinion. We knew. Therefore Mrs Wade did not allow the ball to be scored.

POSTOFFICE NOTES GRASP YOUR OFFICE HISTORY Of time men and women employees in the service are heard to complain bitterly against the working conditions,旷懒ness of labor, etc., of their positions. Time and again we have heard complaints about the night work. Employees are continually complaining that night was meant for sleep and that they, like other human beings, should be permitted to perform their eight hours duty in the day to sleep. One on the out-side, or one not appointed with the conditions in the post, will this argument may so easily be made. But the men and women worked better than the men and worked better in the service themselves that the bulk of the mail comes into most large offices between three and seven o'clock in the afternoon. This mail must be worked up and dispatched as soon after the time of its receipt in the office as possible. It stands to reason that the morbidity there are to help do this, the quicker it can be done. It is therefore absolutely necessary to have large groups working at night and as few as possible working in the day, when the work is slack. The common kick on working conditions in the post office, results from the requirement that every separator shall stand on two feet squarely in front of his or her case and stick letters into a separation case at the rate of sixteen per minute, eight hours of this constitutes a days work. Here again, to those who don't know, the very thought of such a task for a whole day seems obnoxious and even though of having to do such six days in each week almost wrecks one's nerves. But that is only to one who does not know. One needs to work but a very short time on a separation case before he is able to think about anything else but what he is doing and at the same time perform his duty creditably. A certain swing is adopted by most clocks soon after they become used to the work which enables them to go along at a rate much above the average of 16 per minute. Only those in the work and performing their duties conscientiously can tell you how time slips by. Salary Question There is a great amount of truth to the complaints about the injustice of the salaries. Workers everywhere performing tasks of much less responsibility are receiving almost twice as much recompense as post office employees. Yet, if we admit that we are compelled to work during the hours when we should like to go out with the rest of the world and have a good time.—If it it true, that there is nothing for us to do at the end of our days' work but to go home and fall in bed, get up on the next day, eat and come on down to work again, we are doing little more than working sleeping and eating. Under such conditions we should be able to break in, in whatever our salaries. For example, our salaries like in Harley, we should be able to keep up our feet and our appearance and still manage to tuck a penny away in the Postal Savings Bank. Don't Be Content We are not writing this article to impose police employee content with what they have or what they are. To the police we side with them in all of their complaints. We sympathize with them for having to work when they pay or sleep, we feel for them the urgency of their duty under conditions which some term inable; we demand the fact that they are so poorly paid for their faithfulness; yet we are not going to deal with the fellow former views with pessimism these hardships with his fellow worker. We are not going to call a man bright who can never see a silver lining to dark days when we've been taught their childhood that "I ever had a sister lining." Fifthmore from our point of view, the post office, with all of its hardship, one of which prevents us from getting around throwing away money, and thereby enables us to pay our taxes, is the greatest little old steeping stone in the world's history. Welcome the New Girls Notice has been brought to this office that once more girls are eligible to take the examination for the position of workers in the post office. Applications may be obtained from Kroom Sld. Custom House, New York City, or from Civil Service Commissioner, Washington, D. C., and that received one thousand or more who have already passed the examination are to enter the service in the near future. We hope our girls will take advantage of this opportunity and try their hand at this line of work. It is worthy of a trial. Hudson Terminal Miss Ruth June and Emily V. Watts, appointed regular clerk, August 21d, were assigned to the city division at this station. Sub Carriers Robert E. F. Clarke and Floyd E.

Lew Hamlet, laborer, although 69 years old, did not retire, August 20, as the Sterling, Lehbach Bill reads that all employees, other than clerks and city carriers, retire at 70 years of age. Foreign Station. Mr. Ellen Spalding of Hudson Terminal, formerly of this station, has expressed a desire to be with us again. The clerks here who well remember Miss Spalding are hoping she will be transferred again to Foreign Station. "Quit a few 'P.O.C.'s" attended the tennis championships at the Ideal Club on Saturday last. Among them were Walker Snowden of Grand Central and Hulbert Saunders, "G. H." and D. Hart of Foreign Station. Dudley Hart was away three days last week to attend a wedding in Massachusetts. Many were anxious to know if Hart went to be the victim or a witness. Fortunately the young man was neither. The champion checker played of this station has left on his vacation. During his absence Mr. Rogers has entrusted his title with E. Maw who is a checker player of mean ability. Dave Wilson's strong whist partner has left on his annual leave. Of Miss Jones? Why, yes. The Charming young lady left on her vacation.

Miss A. Sellers is on a twenty-day sick leave and is in the South recovering from a nervous breakdown. "The Wise Men of the East," also the New York section, are selling stock to raise funds for a modern race track. Key Green is in no way connected with this. Miss G. Perkins reported a few days last week. MissBeulah Henderson has improved wonderfully and is no longer at the hospital. The clerk of this station will find it much more convenient visiting her at her residence, 20 West 133rd street, and it is hoped more will visit her, as it means so much. We learned from miniature case man that he is remodeling case for section 2 of New York scheme. From the number that were sick (of work) it was evident that an excursion was being given last Monday. Miss A. seems exceptionally happy these days. Well, why shouldn't she? He? will be in town soon. We can't learn what it is all about but the "Sergeant and Corporal" have the "Captain" blackmailed.

Miss Eidythe Chandles has returned from her vacation. "Bob" Young is away on his vacation but still in the city in order that he won't miss the early morning tennis games as which he is a prominent figure in the Williamsbridge section. P. O. INFORMATION About two weeks ago I sent you a letter, enclosing a self-addressed, stamped envelope to reply, begging you to procure me information regarding the exact status of colored postal employees in your city. As yet I have received no reply. I realize that this vacation time and that you may be away for the summer or that you may be pre-occupied with other matters. But the imperative need of this information is as soon as you can possibly procure it. It is vastly more than any personal reason that I am asking. I am asking for information on which must be based on an improvement of conditions to tolerated employees in the postal service of Philadelphia. I told one postmaster that conditions of certain employees were as better in your city than they are here. I firmly sympathize with his position in asking for part-time jobs in this connection before underwriting racial changes here. I do not believe that the conditions with immigrants and the conditions of the race in our city (especially in our neighborhood) matter in the postal service of necessity, break down barriers or of least assess testing against unsuccessful. There are important reasons, which I cannot give why we must have the information for within a work or a class. (I cannot be in it strongly enough to be necessary for us to go to the exam and trouble of making our personal trip to your city for it. If there are again any problems in my course, through the agenda of some intelligent gentleman and having of our postal employees, if we must how many and in what cities Negroes are employed in the grade of our city since the graduation class or career. How many work in the various departments usually dominated by white employees. How many at a supervisor's institution. How many work at the firm, how many receive salaries above $1500. In the most casual manner I belonged to read in The New York Times a colored man who acted as a new black man in the New York Posthouse. The same article told of the conspirer colored clerk, found himself under a colored foreman, presumed to be delighted with his apprehension. This was all merely incenial, and there may be such cases in your city as well as in other north- corn cities. John Thomas Butler, the great dramatist, who, by the way, is my right-hand man in this fight for future recognition of colored postal employees informs me that he a school-mate who is secretary either of the Postmaster or the Assistant Postmaster, he is not sure which, in N. Y. Such facts as these are what our Postmaster desires. Absolutely nothing like that obtains here. If you find it impossible to send these facts, or as many of them as may be easily obtained, kindly so inform me and we will be compelled to visit your city, for the same. As I said before, all names will be regarded as confidential. I believe, however, that our Postmaster is a thoroughly honorable and conscientious man, though a Democrat, who has inherited the conditions of which I speak, but is sincerely interested in improving our starters. Again begging you to be as prompt in your reply as possible. JAMES S. STEMONS Philadelphia. FRED DIXON REPLIES TO JESSA L. GARLAND; To Sporting Editor of this area: A true sportman is usually a gentleman, though sometimes there is an exception to the rule. The facts about the golf game at Vim Cortlandt Park for the Race Championship are contained in the following letter from Mr. Lawrence Foster of White Plains friend of the indignant "gentleman" who has an aversion to playing with and teaching hall-boy's how to play this game. I do not happen to be a hall-boy, and I would not be ashamed of it if I was. The "gentleman" sitting (?) allusion to these honest toilers does not apply to me. I fancy that a hall-boy is quail as respectable as a barber or a cigar-maker. The letter follows: White Plains, N. Y. July29. Mr. Fred A. Dixon. Dear sir: At Van Cortlandt Links Thursday all day; received your address of you and your friend; would be glad at any day to play with you and your friend. Mr. Jesse L. Gerland and myself are playing for the Race Championship. Will play, Sunday, evening. Come and bring your friend. The game will start about 4:30 p.m. Bring some friend what do not play Golf. We'll try to make it a nice game. I can book for you Sunday? ( Signed) LAWRENCE FOSTER I construed this to be an invitation and a challenge to my friend and myself to meet the writer of this letter and his exclusive friend at the VanGelland Links at the time indicated to lay a friendly game of golf. I assumed that Mr. Foster spoke to his friend, Mr. Jessa Garland, who "played golf for fifteen years and never been defeated." But he would take it appear that his friend Foster did no authority to include his name as one of the contestants in this championship game. This is hard on Mr. Foster though I do not believe him to be guilty of so dishonorable an act. Mr. Jessa I. Garland's comment appears to have gotten the better of his good judgement and modesty. Mr. Garland could stretch me little golf. I was taught by a professional and I have been playing the game since I was a lad. I do not happen to be a "Britisher." I was born in Jacksonville, Fla., and have lived in New York from my caribbean FRED A DINON Gibba Takes Issue with Garland Arthur H. Gibba, 207 West 138th street, one of the local devotees of the famous Scottish game, golf, takes issue with Jessa L. Garland, 221 East 21st street, whose statement was pub- lished in the last issue of Tyr. Ace. Mr. Garland denied that he and Lawrence Foster were to play a match game on the links against Fred, Dixon and his partner and also said that in the fifteenth years he had been playing golf, he had better been defeated. Mr. Gibba statement is as follows: . Mr. Garland shows a very original way of protecting his unexplained charm, honesty. In the statement attributed to him in Tyr. Ace he refers to his business achievements and makes sarc- tic remarks about the employment and accomplishments of his challengers. These things of which he is absolutely ignorant have nothing to do with the story under consideration. If there is any truth in Mr. Garland's story of a few years without a single debt, he is really in a class by him self and holds a record unheard of in history of gold. While George Aaron and myself cannot bear of any and record, we consider ourselves well qualified to dispute his right to the title of champion, and it is up to him wither to come out and play or to find some other was out of it. The score of a recent round credits this with having made the Van Cort- dain link in 89 while Aaron is accorded with an 83.

Battle, the first color officer to be appointed on the New York city police force, makes the statement that during the illness of his child, who died recently, he was advised by his physician to employ a nurse. Accordingly he called up the Lincoln Nurses' Home, West 135th street, and requested that a nurse be sent to this home. The pary answering the phone asked his name and address, and upon learning his identity, curtly informed him that the Nurses' Home did not care to serve him. This action forced him to call a white nurse, who responded immediately, and who was paid at rate of $R per day. Officer Battle has been unable to earn the salary he was paid with so much inconsideration, but he feels keenly the humiliating treatment and lack of interest in his child.
