It is necessary to know that the National City Bank controls the National Bank of Haiti and is the depository for all the Haitian national funds that are being collected by American officials, and the Mr. R. L. Farnham, vice-president of the National City Bank, is certainly the representative of the State Department in matters relating to the island republic. Most Americans have the opinion if they have any opinion at all on the subject—that the United States was forced, on purely human grounds, to hurt the black republic because of the tragic coup detat which resulted in the overthrow and death of President Vilbrun Guillaume Sam and the execution of the political prisoners confined at Port-au-Prince, July 27-28, 1915; and that this government has been compelled to keep a military force in Haiti since that time to pacify the country. know the reasons for the pro- tie to understand why the United Stato- mented military forces instat of Haiti men, women and children H rikes and machine guns, it is necesse that the National City Bank of No in Haiti.

Toward the end of 1914 the United States wounded the United States on the part of Haiti that it was discharged in the newly elected president, as soon as a law would sign at Washington's protocols' relative to the United States on behalf of the Dominican-American government. On December 15, 1914, the government, through its Secretary of the Republic of Haiti, itself lax in its duty to the United States and to itself if it allowed the United States to exist of its jurisdiction not to accept any contribution to the administration of Haitian foreign power." On December 15, 1914, the United States, through its Secretary of Port-au-Prince, replied, that its willingness to do so had been done in Santo Domingo and was activated entirely by a direct decree to give assistance."

After several days, the Lord mission sailed for the United States. But soon after, in May, the United States sent to Haiti Mr. Paul Fuller, Jr., with the title Envoys Extraordinary, on a special mission to apprise the Haitian government that the Guillaume administration would not be recognized by the American government unless Haiti accepted and signed the project of a convention which he was authorized to present. After examining the project the Haitian government submitted to the American commission a counter-project, formulating the conditions under which it would be possible to accept the assistance of the United States. To this counter-project Mr. Fuller proposed certain modifications, some of which were accepted by the Haitian government. On June 5, 1915, Mr. Fuller acknowledged the receipt of the Haitian communication regarding these modifications, and sailed from Port-au-Prince. Guillaume Killed. Before any further discussion of the butler project between the two governments, political incidents in Hawaii led rapidly to the events of July 27 and 28. On July 27 President Guillaume tled to the French Legation, and on the same day took place a massacre of the political prisoners in the prison at Port-au-Prince. On the morning of July 28 President Guillaume was forcibly taken from French Legation and killed. On the afternoon of July 28 an American man-of-war dropped anchor in the harbor of Port-au-Prince and landed American forces.

SCOTT ELECTED (Special to THE NEW YORK ACL.) Chicago, IL.—The first Negro to hold the position of judge of the Chicago municipal court and, so far as is known, the first man of his race to hold a similar position in the United States is James A. Scott who, on the face of incomplete unofficial returns from the recent municipal elections, appears to have been chosen for the post. Scott is senior member of the Chicago law firm of Scott, Brown & Marshall and some years ago was Assistant State's Attorney. "Harding and Hope! or Cox and Despair" Republican Party Nearest Guarantor of Rights to Race Churchmen, Professional and Business Men Unite in Opinion That Republicans Offer Only Hope to Negro Citizens Business men, newspaper men, clergymen and physicians have united in pressing their opinions as to why the Negro should support the Republican deli in the present campaign for the election of a President of the United States. The editor of The New York Acr. addressed a letter to various prominent men of this race in different sections of the country asking for the giving of ten reasons why the Negro should support the Republican candidates and many replies have been received. "Harding and Hope; or Cox and Despair," is the consensus of expression emphasized by Dr. George E. Cannon of Jersey City, who declares that Governor Cox, the democratic nominee for President, "wink" at the Democratic party bringing to him the bloodstained electoral votes of eleven southern states, curred by the most wanton violation of the constitution; and he is silent as the party leaders boldly declare that they will defy the Nineteenth Amendment and annex the votes of 4,000,000 Negro women." Dr. Cannon has recently been named as a representative of the race as advisory committee of the Republican State Committee. State Chairman, E. C. Stokes, in notifying Dr. Cannon of the selection, wrote that it was the main action of the advisory committee, and said: "I am sure your character will be a potent help to the party in his state." In his letter, Dr. Cannon wrote, that "the pending Presidential election will determine whether we as a group will continue to suffer from the iniquities of violent race hatred, segregation and oppression or be restored to a larger measure of freedom and citizenship rights through the triumph of the Republican party." Bishop W. L., Lee of Brooklyn, N. Y. poll the largest vote cast for any of the presiding over the 9th episcopal district colored candidates. His letter to the edi- tors of the A. M. E. Zion Church declares for of Trot. Aria is in full as follows: Bishop W. L., Lee of Brooklyn, N. Y., presiding over the 9th episcopal district of the A. M. E. Zion Church declares that "the whole country wants a change in politics at Washington" and the Negro voters "want this change for the reason that the Democratic party is naturally hostile to the Negro as a race." Bishop George W. Clinton of Charlotte, N. C., of the 1st episcopal district of the same church, says that the Republican party is the only party likely to win in this or any other election soon, "that offers encouragement and protection to the Negro as a citizen. Unless the Republican party he given control of the government our recently enfranchised women, especially in the south, will be given the same treatment that has been dealt out to our men for more than a third of a century." Charles Banks of Mound Bayon, Miss., declares that the Republican party is the guarantor to the rights and privileges granted the Negro as an American citizen under the Constitution. Says Mr. Banks, "The Republican nominees, both Senator Harding and Governor Coughie, have had the courage, wisdom and regard for our groups to speak specially of their aims, aspirations and hardships, excluding a concern apparently unknown to the Democratic nominees, and it is but the part of wisdom to bear the all which we have rather than fly to those we know not of." Dr. Cainon was a candidate in the Republican Presidential primary in April for alternate delegate-at-large from New Jersey to the Republican National Convention. He was not elected, but he end TO CONDUCT BEAUTY COLUMN FOR THE AGE The New York, New York, has been able to secure one of New York's best and most successful beauty specialists to conduct a department to be known as "Youth and Beauty Chats," who will write under the pen of phane of Mona. These articles and answers will appear in The Ace weekly, and will be of interest to both men and women. "Mona" has invented various articles which have brought joy to the hearts of women who care. Many well-known actresses, one the retention of their charm and beauty to guidance and care of this skilled beauty specialist. Not only will "Mona" write interesting articles but will be pleased to answer questions asked by both men and women in regards to hair, skin, mails, and on the subject of reducing or adding weight GEORGE E. CANNON. M. D. "Why the Negroes should support the Republican ticket this year. As a race we are face to face with a grave crisis in the present campaign; our citizenship is in jopardy. The pending Presidential and congressional election will determine whether we as a group will continue to suffer from the Wilson iniquities of violent race hatred, segregation and oppression through the triumph or the Democratic party; or be restored to a larger measure of freedom and citizenship rights through the triumph of the Republican party. To the Negro voters of the United States this question transcends all other issues. To us, it is Harding and Hope! or Cox and Despain. "The Democratic party says the League of Nations is the great issue. White Americans lay great stress on the dangers of Article Z: let black Americans read and study Article XH, which under the Wilson mandatory form of government, doom all the black people of Africa to subjection but little removed from slavery." "When Governor Cox says, he stands in his party, we know what that means. To him it is an unparadonable crime for the Republicans to raise an adequate campaign fund to save this country from destruction, but he winks at the Democratic party bringing to him the bloodstained electoral votes of eleven southern states, secured by the most wauton violation of the Constitution; and he is silent as his party leaders boldly declare that they will defy the Nineteenth Amendment and suspend the votes of 4,000,000 Negro women. "In this campaign let the woman of Negro men and women be On Guard! On Guard! registration day by registering. On Guard! election day by voting for Harding and Coolidge and the Republican congressional candidates. W. L. LEE, D. D. Bishop of the 9th Episcopal District of the A. W. L. L. Church Brooklyn, N. Y. My dear Mr. Moore:— In answer to yours of September eleventh, I would say: 1st. The whole country wants a change in politics at Washington. And our Negro voters want this change for the reason that the Democratic party is naturally hostile to the Negro as a race. 2nd. The Negro should vote the Republican ticket this year for the reason that the Democratic party has had eight years to show its friendship for our race. The sum total of all that we have been able to see has been the clearing of the members of our race from the few offices hitherto held by them, and race segregation in almost every department of the government at Washington. 3rd. The Republican candidate for his speech of acceptance did of his own volition and without reservation make that from every angle of qualification the Negro had served his right to exercise every privilege that this minister can vouchsafe to any group of his counsellors. The Negro is honest and good, depressed on so many aspects the party of the birth must hope and develop upon him. Madam C.J.

Walker and vice of the Democratic party, the great outstanding percentage of efficiency which has marked the most administration at Washington and should so vote as to give the most administration an "eternal rest." The Republican party has the greater number of the nation's great statesmen with its ranks and at a time so critical as this should be in control of the government. Let every man and woman of the state in all sections of the country arise and put on their strength and help to back the party of Lincoln and of the irrespressible Roosevelt." GEORGE W. CLINTON, D. D, Bishop val Episcopal District, A. M. E. Zion Church "Some Reasons why the Negroes should vote the Republican National market in November—The Republican is the only party that has espoused the cause of the Negro in the past and the理由 that is likely to win in this or any other election soon that offers encouragement and protection to, the Negro as a citizen. It is the only party that is likely to win that has the courage to contain the outrages that have been and are being heaped upon the Negro, now卫握着 his patriotism and loyalty as a citizen and his value as a workmen. 4. In those states where the Republican party has had control there has been an adverse race legislation, such as Jim crow cars, segregation and 'is' franchisement of qualified citizens, for no other cause that they are Negroes. The country is generally in better condition when the Republican party is in charge of the National government, and the Negro is more secure in the enjoyment of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. "A continuation of the present state of affairs now obtaining at Washington means discontent and retrogression to the average Negro citizen, and an unsettled state of affairs throughout the country among all people. Unless the Republican party be given control of the government our recently enfranchised women, especially in the South, will be given the same treatment that has been dealt out to our men for more than a third of a century. Full control of the National government at the coming election there will not only be negotiation, and there will not only be encouragement for Negro employees, but those who receive employment at all will be given inferior jobs or none at all. The candidates chosen by the Chicago Republican Convention are of the highest type and best qualifications for the high and responsible officer for which they have been nominated or have not been afraid to declare their attitude toward the Negro and give him assurance of what they want to confer his citizenship and the treatment he should have at the hands of government officials. Nigroes who love their race, who want justice for themselves and all others; who want an opportunity to serve for those who are to rule over them; who want the privilege to serve worthy men of their race; and see them protected in elected or appointed in any and every part of the country. All other constant and permanent legislation that justifies their rights from privileges to which are entitled to alienation. Should for Harding and government all decent candidates for states Senate and Congress. Dear Mr. Moore, "In response to your value" sept. 15th, to question me to reasons why the Negro should the Republican ticket this Fall, to submit the following: "(1) Proceeding on the principle that the American Negro is caretaker when an American citizen and entitled to all the rights and privileges vouchsafied by the constitution, the record of the Republican party shows it to be the nearest guarantor of those in the Negro is concerned. "(2) The present promise of the Republican party and its platform that Negro representatives in the naming of the former and making of the latter, while no Negro was in any way a participant in the San Francisco meeting. ("J) The Republican party takes a strong and definite against lynching in its platform and indicates suppression. The Republican party makes mention of the evil at all in the platform. The Negro being by far the largest victim to lynching should support that party offering the most protection from same. "(4) Nearly all of the race are more or less employee, whether North or South, East or West. The prosperity of American industries and the country generally affects the employee as much as the employer. The records of the country show the greatest substantial prosperity and growth of American industries under Republican administration. The Negro is an employee should therefore vote for the Republican nominees. "(5) The Republican nominees, if elected, will, by the very nature of things, be surrounded and advised by persons more in harmony with the aspirations and ideals of the Negro than the Democratic nominees. "(6) On more than one occasion in the past, under the Constitution, the Vice-President became President of the United States. The Negro, being much concerned in the proposition of law and order, finds a safer exponent and order of the same in Governor Coolidge than in Secretary Roosevelt, to say nothing of the latters' objectionable attitude toward our group in the Haitian affair. "(2) Under past Republican administrations the Mexico has been recognized in the commemorate Federal appointments at home and abroad. The present Democratic administration is the reverse, and judging from the public utterances of Governor Cox on all other matters a Cox administration would be a duplicate or commination of the Wilson administration. "(8) Segregation of Government employees. Insist on unfair and unmerciful treatment, not permitted or authorized in Washington under a Republican regime. The policy of the Democratic administration has been the reverse. "(9) Finally, the Republican nominee, both Senator Harding and Governor Cox, have had the courage, wisdom and regard for our groups to speak specially of their aims, aspirations and hardships, evincing a concern apparently unknown to the Democratic nominee, and it is, but the part of wisdom to fear the risks which we have more than the to those, we know not JOHN C.

There are two things that act as a lever in winning men and they are, Fear and Interest. "Every now and then we hear some disgruntled party say that Lincoln never treed the slaves because he loved them, or that the Republican party never gave citizenship to black people because they loved black people. We can always answer these things with the fact of fact, that all Law in this country pro- tects the rights of black people. The Republicans might not love us but they have put these laws on the static books and in the minds of all northerners. "The Republican party of Lincoln, Summer, Roosevelt, might not love black people, but they have ever held out the ideal to us and all Americans, of FREEDOM, EQUALITY and FRATERNITY.

Porter, leader at Youth and Beauty Chats BY MONA Youth and beauty have had an uninterrupted reign since the world began. Changzhou dark and beautiful with crimson lips, and tinted cheeks, swayed kings and emperors at her will. Ancestors have hunted high in the mountains, low in the valleys, and deep into the caverns of the earth for that mystic fountain of youth. Ponce de Leon explored our own. Florish in search of it, and on down through the ages unto the present day the search went on unstintingly. But this search has changed, science has taught us that the fountain we have been booking for is only a fantastic myth, and that youth can be retained hard and prolonged nearly indefinitely through proper living, and scientific care of the human body. And thus the search has not been in vain; youth has doubled its years, within the last half century. I is with pleasure that I shall endeavor to give to the readers of The Age a complete course of instruction: "How to live and how to retain a youthful appearance." I shall also disclose the many formulas for the cosmetic preparations that are necessary to take proper care of the skin and body. The most expert beauty doctors of the world are in the orient. Surely the Oriental women, who have no graver concern than to retain their youth and beauty, are known the world over for beautyfully clear brown complexions. Cleanliness is the first, second, and last law of beautifying. No matter what the complexion, the face should be bathed daily with warm water and pure soap, to remove the dust and grime.

The housing condition does not improve, in fact, conditions are worse. It is almost impossible to rent a house here, and if one is fortunate enough to rent one, the price is almost out of reach. It is nothing to pay into dollars a month for a six-room house, and when one rent a room he usually pays twenty-five dollars a month. This is bad enough, but a far worse condition exists. Operators here will rent you a house at a given figure, and after the first month they will no longer rent, and if one object to paying the increased rent, and the landlord finds out that you have a vacant room, the agent takes him himself to sublet the room and make the rent for the rent.

It is the duty of every man and woman entitled to cast a ballot to register for the coming election. In order to vote, the law requires that the voters must go before the board of elections in the district where they reside and register their name, address and other parties, that may serve to identify them and present others from voting on their names. In New York State, as in most of the other states, there are several days applied for the purpose of registering voters. The hours extend into the ming, so that those engaged at working the day may register without riving with their regular duties. Homewife may include registration one of the calls she makes while ringing the butcher and the baker, or can make an evening affair of it for male essex. He requirement for registration as a voter vary in the several states. In New York they are very simple. If one is born in the United States, he or she must have been a resident of the state for years in the county three months and in the election district thirty days. If born in another country, the would be your must have being born here. No one should believe what he is beheaded. It is the right to be murdered, the duty to every one entitled to vote to give the half or quarter of an hour required for this purpose and get his or her name on the registration books. One of the highest duties of citizenship is to exercise the right of frankness for the cause of good government. In certain sections, on the country the right to vote is denied many of the people, especially the Negro people, through fraud and deception of traitors. It is therewith the duty of every member of the nation to protest against such conditions in the battle where its use is the most unjustified. Representation of old therefore be bounded upon as a duty, second only to exercise the right to vote in the cause of good government. World in the field. Registrar a doctor and doctor in the field.

"Who should the New Yorkers of the country support the Republican ticket in the present Disciple campaign?" --- This question has been submitted to leading members of the race, including prominent clerics and professional business men, and their resources will be found of significant interest. In a general way the fact is emphasized that the whole country wants a change in politics at Washington, so that the condition of Democratic efficiency in government may be replaced by Republican efficiency. It is further insisted upon that the Republican party as the sole party likely to win in this or any other election in the near future, that offers encouragement and protection to the Negro as a citizen. The Republican party took a definite stand against lynching and mob rule in its platform, and at least called upon the Congress to consider the matter of adopting preventive legislation, that would bring offenders before the Federal courts. The segregation and humiliation of Negro government employees under the Democratic administration, together with the outing of many of them from the service is contrasted with the broader attitude that prevailed under previous Republican administrations. Finally the pronouncements of the Republican candidates in favor of equal justice and citizenship rights, for all members of Americans is contrasted with dates of any reference to this important subject. Even the anti-American policy of the subjugation of the Republic of Haiti by United States Marines and machine guns, which has been one of the boasts of the Democratic candidate for Vice president, has been repudiated by the Republican candidate for President. To sum it up succinctly, the reasons why the Negroes of the country should support the Republican party at this juncture might be stated as follows: To put an end to 'Democratic misrule and its many attendant evils in this country and in Haiti; to put the question of abstinishing lynch law and mob violence squarely up to the Congress, with the result of securing Federal legislation to cure the practice; to do away with segregation and discrimination on account of color in the civil service; to secure and preserve the common rights of citizenship for the race in all sections of the country. To all of these changes of policy the Republican candidates have pledged themselves, with more or less definiteness, and they are the only candidates in the field with any prospect of success at the polls, who have so pledged themselves. It is therefore the port of wisdom and expedition for the Negroes of the country to exercise their best efforts for the election of Harding and Coolidge. SENATOR HARDING ON HAITI. The cynical boast of the former assistant Secretary of the Navy, who is now the Democratic candidate for Vice President, that he wrote the new constitution for Haiti, has had the effect of directing public attention to the unprovoked war waged upon that helpless Republic, by the present Democratic administration. militarization. So repugnant to the principal of American government has been the course pursued in Haiti and San Domingo, that Senator Harding in his Constitution Day address, declared that "the wars upon our neighbors to the south were made and are still being waged, though never declared, through the usurpation by the Executive of powers not only over bestowed upon him but simultaneously withheld by the Constitution" He "Of the fact there can be no question. It is admitted, even boasted by the Democratic candidate for Vice President between whom it occurred, and the prt identity itself would be a single lie. You know, he said to the people of Montana as his worlds were quoted by the press, I have had something to do with the running of a couple of little republics. The fact is that I wrote Hayt's constitution myself and, if I do say it, I think it a pretty good constitution. Until last week I had two votes to the League Assembly; now, Secretary Daniels has them. "To the list of my information this is the first official admission of the rape of Hayti and San Domingo by the present Administration. To my mind, moreover, it is the most smoking assertion that ever emanated from a responsible member of the Government, the United States. ment of "True we know little of the conduct of these wars of occupation" and the imposition of laws upon our helpbearer neighbor. The censorship is no less strict than it was during the second conference and compaction in Paris. Practically all we know now is that thousands of native Haytarians have been killed by American marines, and that many of our own soldiers have sacrificed their lives in the list of an executive department in order to establish laws directed by an assistant secretary of the Navy, to secure a vote in the league and to continue at the point of the basement a military domination which at this moment requires the presence of no less than 300 of our armed men that foreign soil. More light has been shed on the conquest of Haiti, then the reservation of American territories at Bloodhound made through the medium of the New York Nation, by such writers as Hewett Schlegman and James Weldon Johnson, who recently won of the uninhabited island. A to the real reason for such an unprovoked attack upon a governmentless lightheart, what a view in the location of Nation may have proved an incentive, the overwhelming size of where capitalists to exploit a weaker and darker or more potent state have placed a larger turn. Then there was the other of reason that the occupation afforded a number of lucrative offers to the title by "disposing Demosarcis," principally in Louisiana and Mississippi. from Louisiana. Two late, the Democratic candidate for Vice President, Franklin D. Roosevelt seems to have relaxed that his hostess to running two little republics was in the nature of a booming. He therefore issued an executive order to the alleged statement about the votes in the League of Nations, for Hart and San Dimas. As to the main charge of waging an unauthorized war, he cited: "Mr. Harding has been a member of the United States Senate since the government was compelled to intervene in Haytin and San Domingo in order to prevent a terrorist attack at our very doors which were deemed undesirable. This action on the part of the United States not only met with no protest from the Senate, but was done with the full knowledge of everybody. As I remember, in the United States, a religious store order in Haytin in 1915 and in San Domingo shortly after that. Since that time there has been no effort to conceal the United States policy of taking these countries to get back on their feet, financially and every other way, and to enable them as soon as possible to operate again under their own legislatures. This already has been accomplished in the case of Haytin." This is a virtual admission of the charge of the usurpation of executive power made by Senator Harding, for the purpose of subjugating and exploiting a neighboring republic. Of all the abuse of power charged against the Democratic administration, none can surpass the rope of Franklin D. Roosevelt. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1930 STATE DEPARTMENT SMOKED OUT ON HAITIAN SITUATION. The State Department has at last been smoked out of Haiti. For the past five years no news has been allowed to come out of Haiti, and the Administration in Washington has been absolutely silent on what was going on there. Not even could members of Congress or even the committees on Foreign Relations find out what this country had done in the Black Republic. But eventually the fact were found out and they were given wide publicity in this country. Senator Harding made use of these facts in a recent speech, and although the State Department had made up its mind to ignore these facts as published, it could not ignore them as spoken by Senator Harding. First came defence from Secretary Daniels, defending the Navy Department, speaking of how kind and benevolent had been the military domination of Haiti. At the same time, Secretary of State Colby impatient that the American troops would be withdrawn. Secretary Colby followed this up with a formal statement in which he reviews an attempt to justify the American intervention. Secretary Colby either does not know the history of the American intervention in Haiti, or he deliberately makes misleading statements. He implies that the United States had to intervene in Haiti on account of its being the "scene of many revolutions and chronic disorder." Haiti has been the scene of as many revolutions and as much chronic disorder as Mexico, and yet we have the democratic platform, in speaking for the Wilson Administration, saying: "The Administration, remembering always that Mexico is an independent nation and that permanent stability in the government and her institutions could come only from the consent of her own people so a government of her own making has been unwilling either to profit by the misfortunes of the people of Mexico or to entitle their future by imposing from the outside a saloon their temporarily distracted councils. The difference between Mexico and Haiti is that the Mexican job is too big. The real reason for American intervention in Haiti is economic. Certain American financial groups, mainly the National City Bank of New York, had interests in Haiti and they were asking for intervention a number of years before it took place. Secretary Colby also speaks about the great benefits which have accrued to the Haitians through American Occupation. He states that "complete tranquility exists throughout the Republic of Haiti". This "tranquility" is something very new, for as late as last April, when the writer was in Haiti, American marines were shooting down natives with machine guns, and several of them were shot in return. Secretary Colley, of course, denies that the State Department has any connection with the activities of the National City Bank in Haiti. We should like to take in mind that Mr. Colley can answer or get around the official documents published or connection with the writer's article on Haiti to The Nation, September 11th. The official documents are Ghite, showing the demands made upon the Haitian Government by our State Department in the interest of the National City Bank of New York. Mr. Colley attempts to convey the impression that the present impasse between the United States State Department and the Haitian Government is due to the refusal of the Haitians to carry out certain terms of the treaty with the United States. Nothing is farther from the truth. The Haitian Government is refusing to ratify a contract giving the National City Bank of New York an exclusive and unprecedented monopoly over the financial life of Haiti. The American Government, in retaliation, is refusing to allow the Salaries of the President, Cabinet and the Council of State to be paid. Not only has the Haitian Government turned to racial the aggrement which would give to the National City Bank of New York the incentive privilege, but every important American firm doing business on Haiti has made a protest against it to the Haitian Secretary of Finance. That is the present state of the Haitian function, but it is far more valuable than it has been in the last two years. The Administration has been forced to talk and to explain, and it will find that it will be more, even still more. In this way, health and truth will be better.

And he might add, "The plan was FRENCH COMMON SENSE. people make the mis-take of suppression to lead to an intolerable and sentimental people. Nothing is further from the truth. Perhaps the notion is troubled on the fact that French victories give each other with a kill and do not disdam on occurrences of real traps. Notwithstanding, the French never allow contempt to intolerance with the bar me on hand. They are the most practical minded people in the world. This treatise of the French could be observed all through the war. They thought with great determination without impertention in defeat and without exultation in victory. And when the war was over, although the French army was worth in effectiveness, all the other armies of the Allies put together, they did not hurt out into bases about how they won the war, they left that to the English and the Americans. And since the close of the war the French have acted in accordance with this national characteristic. England, America and Italy have all experienced varying degrees of sentimental remorse; France has not. The French have been accustomed having their heads turned by victory and of being swept forward by a wave of militaristic ambition. Nothing of the sort has happened. The French are following a certain line of action because they consider it the practical thing to do. And this is such an ingrained trait of French character that no waves of emotion or sentiment can sweep them away from that line. The American people constantly think of themselves as being practical. That is another one of the popular errors. In truth, we are the most sentimental set of boobs on the face of the earth. It is impossible to get the American people to do anything because it is practical, because it is wise. It is always necessary to have a sentimental appeal. Americans sometimes think they are a practical people because the country has made such great material progress. The country has progressed materially in spite of the impracticability and improvidence of the people for the reason that its resources were new and inexhaustible. If the American people, with their sentimentality and wastefulness, had a country that had been worked as hard as France and where the acreage per capita was as small they would have starved to death by now. The French have just given another proof of their common sense. A few months ago they elected a new president. A very short while after he was installed into office he became incapacitated through a nervous and mental breakdown to perform the duties of the presidency. The French form of government does not provide for a vice-president, and such a contingency as the president's mental incapacity is not provided for, the resulting situation was puzzling and embarrassing. and embarrassing. However, French common sense, as usual, overcame any sentimental scruples and the president was asked to resign. Deschauel has resigned; and a new president is to be elected at once. JAPAN TO RAISE THE RACE QUESTION AGAIN. It is announced that when the General Assembly of the League of Nations meets in November at Geneva Japan will again raise the question of racial equality for the Japanese. Japan brought up the race equality question at the Versailles Peace Conference with the result of nearly splitting the Conference. The Japanese delegation put up a hagl fight to have the clause they were contending for adopted, but were defeated. Their defeat was due largely to the opposition of the American and the British Colonial delegates to the Peace Conference. At that time Japan did not press the matter to a showdown, which would have meant the adoption of the clause of her withdrawal from the League. She diplomatically accepted defeat, together with the Shantung award, but made it perfectly clear, however, that she would bring up the question at some future time. Japan has decided that the meeting of the League in November is the proper time. The fact that the politicians of the Pacific Coast are now clamoring for more stringent restrictions on Japanese immigrants and immigration may have had something to do with the decision to renew the fight at this particular time. Japan may not feel sure that the race equality clause can be put through, but she may feel hat clamping down the lid on anti-Japanese agitation on the Pacific Coast can be made one of the prices to be paid for failure to put the clause through. Japan can be depended on to turn every little diplomatic trick that is possible. Nevertheless, it is evident that the Japanese are going to put up an energetic and bona fide fight. This is shown by the fact that, besides her three official delegates, they are going to have sixty-two other representatives at Geneva. ODD FELLOWS IN NEW YORK The gathering of the members of the Grand United Order of Old Fellows in New York City last week was a most creditable showing of the strength of the order and deserved the cordiality with which it was greeted by the citizens of Harlem. The meeting of the bilingual movable consent was combined with the celebration of the diamond palace of the order, marking the county first university of its origin. will avoid such proceedings by keeping his rents within reason and giving a full measure of service. WHEN SCHOOL DOORS OPEN. With the reopening of the public schools and other institutions for the training of youth, the devoted parents usually the mother, again has her work out in preparing the hopefuls of the household to begin or resume their studies. This is a duty which involves a serious performance in order to The parade of the order made a fine showing and the general proceedings were characterized by good order and harmony. The number in attendance upon the demonstration was estimated as fully ten thousand people, including 2000 male delegates and 1200 women. Contrasted with the meeting in Wilmington, Del. under the auspices of the Noel-Davis faction, the gathering that met in response to the call of Grad Master Morris showed a great preponderance in numbers. The enrollment of the Wilmington meeting was given a 200 delegates present. While the settlement of the differences at part preceding in this venerable order await the final decision of the higher courts in Pennsylvania, it is to be hoped that such decision may be arrived at and bring the troubles that now threaten to disrupt the order to ameliorate the condition. The Old' Fellows are one of the oldest traditional orders established among the Negroes of American. The order as established among the colored race has the distinction of being the only regular order of Old' Fellows in this country. It is an full fraternal relations with the order in England, from which country it was introduced on this side of the ocean over seventy years ago. The hope of all the friends of the order is that its internal detritures may be annually and fairly adjusted and that the order may go on to future success under a new policy of constructive progress. TENANTS' RIGHTS AND WRONGS. According to the findings of one of the Municipal justices, who have been giving their attention to the plight of Negro tenants in New York City, this class of real付们 were being "most grossly impaired upon" by a corporation owning property in Harlem. In the case, brought before him, Justice Spiegelberg was reported as follows. "I find they pay from two to three times what white tenant pay for the same apartments," he said. "And the elevator, telephone, and hot and cold water service is almost full. Negro tenants seem to have no knowledge of their rights under the new rent laws." If this state of affairs prevails to such an extent in the leasing of apartments to Negro tenants, as the opinion of the judges would indicate, it is up to the legitimate owners and real estate agents, handling property of this character, to look into the matter and take some effectual means to correct this intention from the tenants. In treating with this matter of increased rent, some time ago, Tur Acr took the position that the property owner was entitled to a proper return on his investment. If the expenses of carrying his property and the upkeep of it had increased, he was entitled to raise his rent in proportion. But this does not justify profiteering, nor the charge for service that is not rendered. The relations between landlord and tenant should be kept on a basis fair to each party. A fair return on his investment is due the former and a rent sufficient to insure such a return should be charged the tenant, who should also receive the full service called for under his agreement. Where the rent appears to be exorbitate and the service agreed upon is given, the tenant should appeal to the course. The wrist landlord and agent will avoid such proceedings by keeping his rents within reason and giving a full measure of service. WHEN SCHOOL DOORS OPEN. With the reopening of the public schools and other institutions for the training of youth, the devoted parent, usually the mother, again has her work cut out in preparing the hopefuls of the household to begin or resume their studies. This is a duty which involves a continuous performance in order to be effective. Each school day, at morning moon and night, has its allotted task to be fulfilled. The proper preparation of home work, attention to such details of personal cleanliness as face and ears and finger nails, the brushing of hair and cleaning of shoes and freshness of collar and shirts and blouses, all must be seen to by the careful parent. Some school children may develop the tendency to attend to many of the details themselves, but in most cases, it requires a watchful parental eye, to keep up a strict inspection. As a rule maternal vigilance is the safeguard of scholarly perfection. WALL STREET BATTERED. On Thursday, Sept. 10, Wall street, the center of New York's financial district and therefore the money market of the country, was shaken to its core by a mysterious explosion. It is supported that a huge bomb was exploded in front of the United States Assay office and opposite the building of J. P. Morgan & Co. Thirty five dead and over a hundred wounded was the record of fatalities while the property damage was estimated at two and a half millions of dollars. Walls were battered and plate glass shattered over a wide area. The explosion is attributed by most of the investigators, into its cause, to the activities of Red or Bolshevist conspirators. Despite the holdiness of the attempt none of the great financiers were among the victims of the explosion, most of the dead and wounded being messengers, clerks, stenographers and other employees. The perverted Intelligence that instigated this horror failed of its purpose. The only effect of such an outrage is to shock humanity. The Negro is constantly leaving the South, says the Savannah Journal, and for the following reasons: The Negro has not been protected in the pursuit of life and liberty as he should. His rights and privileges under the law have been, in many instances, denied him. If he votes, his vote counts for taught if registered against an officer not of his choice, for the will of the democratic primary is the will of the people. He must join with the majority in obedience to law, but he has no voice nor vote in the selection of the executor of the law. His school conditions are not in keeping with the demands of times. The crowded conditions of the school houses is a handicap to the instructors and a menace to the healthfulness of the children. There seems to be a growing feeling of hate of the Negro by whites of certain sections of the South that brings to be colored brother, uncomfortable forebodings, dissatisfaction and irrepressible fear. The feeling consequent to such conditions suggests only one alternative, and that is to "diffentents and hie away" to more congenial climes. The Journal thinks that the white South will come to regret this exodus too late, 'when farms are transformed into gardens of weeds or rented by the crafty and sedious foreigner, whose opposing argument is the bomb." The title of the Wizard of Tuskegee will probably now be wished upon Prof. George W. Carver, the head of the experimental laboratory. It is said that he has perfected a formula whereby auto tires can be manufactured by the use of sweet potatoes.

Harding, delivered at Ma- on July 22, 1920. "I believe the federal government should give its effective aid in solving the problem of shipwreck and becoming housing of its citizenship." "I believe the Negro citizens of America should be guaranteed the enjoyment of all their rights that that nation has afforded them of citizenship bestowed, the sacrifices in blood on the sacrifices of the republic have given them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and aid the American spirit of family and justice demands." "I believe in law enforcement. If elected I mean to be a constitutional president, and it is impossible to ignore the constitution, thinkable to evade the law, want our every committal to orderly government. People ever will differ about the wisdom of the enactment of a law—there is divided opinion respecting the eighteenth amendment and the laws enacted to make it operative—but there can be no difference of opinion about honest law enforcement. "Neither government nor party can afford to cheat the American people. The laws of congress must harmonize with the consumption, else they soon are adjudged to be void; congress enact the laws, and the executive branch of government is charged with enforcement. We can, not nullly because of divided opinion, we cannot jeopardize orderly government with contempt for law enforcement. Modification or repeal is the right of a free people, whenever the deliberate and intelligent public sentiment commands, but perversion and evasion mark the paths to the failure of government itself." Nevil H. Thomas, an officer in a Washington high school, pointed out nounced the League of Nations war breeding pact to end the races of the world." He added that "under the flattery and influence of the George, Mr. Wilson signed a pact which means that our blacks will be called at any time from the car, the city ghetto and the vice to which America's colonies have condemned them, to go and maintain. England's dominance is nearly four hundred million displaced people." It is not likely from the present temper of the American voters, that they will rally to Wilson's League of Nations. Oakland, Cal, has started a commercial grocery store, which is endorsed by the ministers, as an epoch making company in the Negro business world. It is known that this store will be the first in a chain of community stores. Free goods at reasonable prices, treats with courteous and efficient service should help to accomplish that goal. "No party has an option on all the virtues of all the vices," is the conclusion of the venerable old of the Philadelphia League, if therefore announces that the choice for President of Harding.

I have had several opportunities to speak in this column of the spiendid work already accomplished by this little girl, and it goes without saying that no more worthy action could have been taken by the Fisk alumni than in making possible the musical and literary development of this very talented young woman.

The Twelfth Anniversary on June 26 telling of a suit for damages won by Mr. Lattimore from A. P. DeCourville, a theatrical agent, the suit being based on an alleged broken contract. In this article Mr. Porter was as having been a witness for DeCourville, who gives his side of the matter. His letter is as follows: LONDON, ENG. Aug. 28. Dear Mr. Moore: I have been reading your valuable journal regularly since my sojourn in London, and confess I find it as interesting as ever. I assure you I would not write this letter if it were not for the high class of your readers and the great circulation of THE AGE. Mr. George W. Lattimore, Manager of the American Southern Syncopized Orchestra, formerly the New York Syncopized Orchestra, has taken occasion to mention my name twice in your columns. Once, as a Bolshevik and in your issue of June 26th 1930, he would have you believe we disloyal to my race in appearing against him in the de Courville case. I am sure your sense of fair play will cause you to give my refutation as much space as you allowed his charge. Mr. Will Marion Cook had absolutely nothing to do with our determination to quit. Mr. Lattimore. In fact, he was in America, when we so determined, and not one of us had received any communication from him. Our reasons were cumulative, and I shall recite them as briefly as is consistent with so big a question. 1. Mr. Lattimore was under contract with Mr. Andre Charlot, of London, to produce the New York Syncopatien Orchestra, a nearly intact as possible as when he heard it in New York, and with Mr. Cook, as conductor. During the Electric tour, Mr. Lattimore and Mr. Cook fell in the forest would be made to the demands of the other East tried to bring the Orchestra without the other. Mr. Charlot refused both propositions because of the terms of the contract. They could not get together until Mr. Robert J. Young, of Baltimore, My brother-in-law, induced Mr. Cook to come for the best interests of all concerned. At this time Mr. Lattimore and Mr. Cook were finally. Most of his company had lost faith in the issue of the cause of his failure to pay them for the American tour and the enormity of his liabilities. Mr. Young paid the most important of the objectors out of his pay and accompanied them to London. He continued to advance money to Mr. Lattimore; and when the clash between Mr. Lattimore and Mr. Cook reached the site of the Charlot was going to cancel the contract. Mr. Young equipped in the breach and so convinced Mr. Cook to his advisors that we were allowed to continue. All Mr. Young asked in return for the part he had played was his money, which he cheerfully accepted in installments at Mr. Lattimore's convenience—the last installment being paid Feb. 14 '20, and a chance to bring some musicians from America to play dance music and the chalats we were. Mr. Lattimore would not consent to this and, when Mr. Young went to America on his own account in Sept., and spent considerable money in getting the men together and attempted to return with them, he found that he was permanently blocked on this end. This, after he had the consent of the Commissioner of Labor, before he left here. Of course Mr. Young and his friends were suspicious of the sort of man who was the eye of the kind of man Mr. Lattimore was. We branded him an inerate. You can hardly appreciate the conditions, because you can never know how sorely pressed Mr. Lattimore was for funds, and how nobly Mr. Young responded; Mr. We found out that Mr. Lattimore was profiteering on us on extra job. From our showing at the Philharmonic Hall, where we played six months in the show he was called as 68-89. Mr. Gilliercas a man, and was paying us 13-10s; 3 we were booked for two weeks at Coliseum. We played one week, because he and the manager could not conscieve to terms for the second week. We got it from a reliable source, however, that he was paid for the two weeks. We received only 1-2 salary for the second week. Then we decided to organize, and twenty-two courts, he would have you believe, quit him in Liverpool. Four of the weak-kneed ones returned instant. A few other later; but the majority are as firm in their stand against him today as they were on Feb. 14th when the severance came. I took the stand for Mr. DeConville, because I was named in the contract as one of the features, and the only and most intense to go to Paris. Besides Mr. Chhestra is legally, as according to a clause in the Charlot contract, it is a clash that terminated with the expiration of the Charlot agreement. This agreement expired in November. We know this anti-hortimately. Lattimore denied it as late as Feb. 14th. So you can see there is justification in the stand took in appearing for the defense. I did not know that Mr. Lattimore's center the Court and the clean hands, and much a man, who has employed our people for years and paid them good salaries. I could ask more than I do not know to Mr. Maun, Mr. Latimore. I reserve my attention to you. Should the occasion demand it, I give you this explanation to my apologies. CORRECTIONS MUST ALL DEE-REGISTERED According to the amendment to the Nurse Practice Act, which became a law on May 12, 1920, each nurse registered in the State at the time of the appointment to the secretary of the Board of Nurse Examiners for a registration blank, upon receipt of which she shall make application for registration, forwarding to the Secretary of the Board the blank properly filled in and accompanied by the fee of one dollar, which application and fee must reach the Secretary on before the first day of December, 1920. Nurses registering for the first time under this act must also make application for such registration following the registration of their license with the county clerk.

Definite assurance of the erection of an armory for the 15th regiment, New York Guard, seems to be embodied in an official communication received by Col.

This committee is composed of Comptroller Craig, President of the Board of Aldermen La Guardia and Brigadier General George R. Dyer.

The Age Readers' Forum You might have read in the Philadelphia Press on week about the same condition of the Nexto in the South; how he is being robbed of public education; how he is more subject to mob treatment now than are they slapped and his children kicked. You saw the name of a man in a small North Carolina town signed to article. But two or three weeks later, you saw another article from the same man in the same paper, the best friend of the white man, the best friend of the South; that the North ought to stay South; that the great state of North Carolina is impartially administered as between white and black,—and such other he. You might have been disguised or puzzled or fooled, according to your degree of ignorance. The South, North Carolina, from the same pen. I have just visited the town and talked with the Negro who wrote those articles. This is what happened. He wrote to me and told me that the woman of his town read it and passed it on to the "authorities". The shet of police came and summoned him to appear before himself and other officials, and he said, "not mentioning the cause purpose." The black man went into the back room of the town bank, and confronted the mayor, the chief of police, the district attorney, and three others. The mayor produced this article of complaint from the Philadelphia police department, which was signed. He was "caused," bullied and threatened and ordered to go out at once and "wrote another article contradicting this one." He was threatened with lychning, he received the thick veil him that the very men would stir up the lychning if he refused. The colony of the local paper, immediately, struck out of pages was spread the front page of our paper, the white man of this town would brush you before it, and "similarly, we would not be able to present it?" That is, the mayor and the police department be UNABLE to do anything. The mayor would not have violated that rule, would and this colored preacher delete, and hence that second article in the Press. The colored man was not allowed to send this article himself, but to write it under the supervision of this town "government" and give it to the officials to be posted to the Press. This Nesro today hate, himself for the deed and hates these men who are not white. The colored man and address, but it will not help him to give them life. I will send you to back if you want to go to Jamaica. I want.

I have read with much interest the editorial page of your issue of September 18th. As you will perhaps recall it has been my idea that the trend to wards better relations and conditions on the part of some Southern papers publishes and deals as shown by their own public speeches and articles. I should be given special honour by the North American journal as the other editor is with the Southern paper that commends the part of the journal that is going to a more decent deal in the news industry. Very comment on the Federal stand taken by the General Assembly was full and unrestricted, but I cannot seem to find a good reason to take the action. My strong branch, the National Association at face value, must in addition be given more opportunities and strength for giving the more concrete deal. It took more time for them to pay this resolution in Minnesota than in the Massachusetts. People to pay taxes and aid us our own city of the Bay State had to vote to state.

VOTE: REPUBLICAN TICKET As a National Party, despite many faults, the Republican party has and does more to yield more wholesome candidates and opportunities whereby the black man may be enabled to come into the enjoyment of the full fruits of success in the party. I am and am mindful either of the magnanimous disposition of the portion of the democratic party, in some sections of the country, towards the black man, nor of the shortcomings of the Republican party in places where it should manifest a more magnanimous disposition towards our people. But, on the whole, as a National organization, the Republican party has so outdoubted its competitor, in this field, with respect to it and fair play for the Negro, the comparison is entirely out, of the question. 2. The candidates of the Republican party, Harding and Coolidge, have holdly, and courageously, spoken their mind with respect to equality of treatment of the Negro, and an energetic determination, if elected, to remove many of the white which criticisms are subjected On the contrary, no inspiring utterance, to animate black citizens, has fallen from the lips of the candidates of the National Democratic party.

Dr. Pierce manufactured this "Discovery" from roots and barks—a corrective remedy, the ingredients of which nature had put in the fields and forests, for keeping us healthy.

Blount Wins Place on Ballot In Arkansas State Election Colored Candidate for Governor For First Time in History of the State-State Officials Act in His Favor (Special to The New York Am.) Little Rock, Ark.-For the first time in the history of the state, the name of a Negro will be submitted to the Senate of Arkansas for the governorship. The name of J. Blount, of Fortress City, will appear on the Ballots as Independent candidate for chief executive. The decision was reached yesterday at a conference in the office of the attorney general, attended by Tom J. Terral, state, and representatives of the "fly with the state" factions of the Republican party. The situation developed several days ago Seipio J. Ames, attorney, appeared at the office of the secretary of state with certificates, and petitioned that Blount's name be certified upon the behalf of a regularly nominated candidate, Mr. Terral. He arrived at Attorney General Arbuckle, who was out of the city. Although Blount will make an active campaign under the direction of a campaign committee, Jones said last night, he has no hope of becoming governor. Jones said that Blount is the candidate with which the Negroes seek to write their names upon the rolls of the Republican party in a more active capacity. Ruled Out of Party. They were, in effect, ruled out of the party at its last convention, so far as participants in any problematic political plea is concerned, when the whites took, and held, control of the convention. When the Polkai county delegation were unmasked in taxation or of their white members of the Negro delegation left the half-and-half a convention of their own for the purpose of carrying the tight to the national convention. Blount's nomination is the origin of the battle. If the Negroes show greater strength in the party, than the whites, as reflected in the November election, the Negroes will challenge Jones, as entitled to consideration in the council of the party on an equal time with the whites. While admittedly, there can be no change of color in official circles of the state, the inference is, that should the national administration change and the power of patronage shift to the Republic in party, no color line can be drawn on the counter.

The question of whether the White candidate was the regular nominee of the Republican party in Arkansas, was wrought up at the beginning of the conference yesterday, but was quickly disposed of, on the showing by the testimony of the Negroes that they had billed the state Republican convention last crime while the fight over the sanction of the delegates was still in progress, and thereby forfeited their right to be recognized.

He was chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, spoln in behalf of the established Republican party, and protested the use of the word "Republican" by the so-called "Lincoln Republican Party," under when the party was formed by Seiji Jones, a spokesman for the Negro delegation, maintained that the party being regularly organized and conducted was entitled to recognition on the ballot, and that the name "Republican" was used, not as a subterfuge, but as an indication of their political affiliations. On Ballot as Independent Mr. Arbuckle ruled that should the "Lincoln Republican Party" prove to be organized in accordance with the laws of the state of Arkansas, and should it be proved that there was no intention of Wilfully misusing the name as a means of drawing Notes, the mere fact that the Republican "appeared in the title would constitute ground for refusing certification." Owing to the fact that the records of the Negro party, which are held by the secretary at Mortillon, were not easily available, the Negro leaders after a moment's conference, ceded the certificate nominating Blount as the Lincoln Republican candidate, on the ground that their chief interest lay in having the name of their candidate in party designation under which he might be admitted.

COMPORT, Proprietress Regular Meals and Light Lunch Served Hours Ice Cream, Confectionery in a Pull Line of Refreshments First Class Service OPEN MAY 13 TO OCT. 15 THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS WHEN the press agent for the Smarteg Set Company hands out the information that "this year's show is better and brighter than ever," he can do so without fear of being accused of wilful misrepresentation. "Bamboula," which opened Monday for a two weeks' engagement as the Lafayette Theatre, is the best vehicle in which Whitney and Tutt have been seen. It is an up-to-date attraction and merits generous support. Pretty girls (I mean pretty girls), tuneful numbers, whole some comedy and a riotous display of costumes and comedy combine to make "Bamboula" an entertainment well worth seeing. Sensing the temper of the present-day devotee of the musical show, which is for a song, some dialog and again a song, the producers wisely give the audience more music and less talk. Even Salem Tutt, Whitney and J. Homer Tutt are not seen so often or heard as much as heretofore, but this arrangement makes them more appreciated when they appear in their humorous verbal exhibitions. In all of Whitney and Tutt's productions there always can be found the underlying motive to show to the world that the Negro has a history of centuries back of him of which he might be proud. That "Bamboula" has been written with a view to creating additional interest in Negro music and enhancing its value may be gleaned by the following synopsis: "Prof. Lowling, a musical fanatie, after hearing the first four measures of 'Bamboula,' an ancient African melody, not knowing whence the melody originated, conceives the idea of tracing its origin in order to prove that the Africans as other peoples have contributed to the music of the world." A de from "Bamboula" being enjoyed purely as an entertainment musicians will appreciate some technical features of the show and the undeniable evidence of intelligent treatment. The book and lyrics were written by adem Tutt Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, assisted by Harry T. Burleigh, Melville Charlton and Ronnie Dougherty; music by James J. Vaughan and Edgar Dowell. The presence of "Harry" Burleigh and "Mell" Charlton on opening night, and the interest they were treated in the musical number could cause one to suspect they had made some valuable suggestions relative to musical themes rather than to book and lyrics. But the program must know whereof it speaks. There are some good songs in "Bambola," including "You're Just Trying to Quit Me." sung by Emma Jackson and Leon Walls. The dance numbers also are pleasing features of the show. This year the Smarter Set Company is carrying a jazz band which plays a conspicuous part on and off the stage throughout the performance. It is apparent that the regular orchestra at the Lafayette Theatre is augmented this week, especially so in some of the big musical numbers. Appearing with the Smarter Set this season are the following: Sam Tutt Whitney, J. Homer Tutt, Alonzo Fenderson, Alexander White, Nathaniel Cash, Edgar Dowell, Leon Walls, Charles Wickham, Julian Costello, Thos. Stirman, Alex Poole, James Dillon, James J. Vaughan, Henry Thompson, Marcus Slater, George E. Platt, Tiny Wilson, Edha Gibbs, Emma Jackson, Daisy Perkins, Maud Lawson, Grace Howell, Julia Patterson, Blonzetta Bell, Viola Green, May Greer, Rosina Alexander, Helen Jackson, Theresa West, Alberta Jones, Elizabeth Campbell, Bertha Roe and Gertrude Hodge. The costumes worn in "Bamboula" reflect much credit on the artistic skill of Jennie B. Hillman, who as a theatrical designer and costumer is in a class by herself among her people. E. C. Brown, banker and theatrical promoter, has made no mistake in becoming financially interested in the Smarter Set Company, which, in "Bamboula," should bring home the bacon during the season of 1920-21. SMARTER SET TO BE AT BRAVETTE TWO WEEKS Sending to the big success the Smarter Company in registering this work in Bravette, the company will remain at Lakeville another week, commencing September 17. Santa age now THEATRICAL PROMOTERS NOW INVADE NEWARK Announcement was made this week by E. C. Brown that colored theatregoers in New Jersey will get an opportunity to see attractions produced by the Quality Amusement Corporation, commencing Monday, September 27, when the musical show, "An African Prince," will open, at the Metropolitan Theatre, Newark, for a four-days' run. The engagement of "An African Prince" at the Metropolitan Theatre will be in the nature of an experiment. If the colored people of Newark, the Oranges and adjacent territory show by their patronage that they want first-class colored productions weekly, the Quality Amusement Corporation will complete negotiations to lease the house for the season. "An African Prince" will be shown at the Metropolitan Theatre Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of next week. Another attraction will be presented by the Quality Amusement Corporation the first half of the following week. Miss Bessie Bearden, who enjoys the distinction of being the most popular house treasurer that ever graced a box office in Harlem, will serve as treasurer of the Metropolitan Theatre during the run of the Quality Amusement Corporation shows. The Metropolitan Theatre is located at Charlton and Montgomery avenues. THEATRICAL JOTTINGS By BOB SLATER. Exposition Four, Keith's, Orpheum, Brooklyn.

Before beginning his address, which opened the thirty eighth season of the Saint Mark's Lycceum at 231 West 54th street, last Sunday afternoon, Cha W. Anderson, national organizer of colored Republicans, was given a reusing reception. Mr. Anderson spoke on the "Duty of the Hour," cleverly connecting religious literary and civic matters with political life. He mentioned the great good which the Lycceum has been to the public, sayings he was one of those who had shaped their future career in the Lycceum. He plead for the end of Democratic Mistle at Washington, the election of Warren G. Harding, the election of Senator James W. Wadsworth in New Yorkk, and a soaring Republican Congress. Mr. Anderson mentioned how difficult it was to vote the present ballot, and the care that should be used in marking it.

TO NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1980 In going over the football "Official Guide for 1920," we note few changes in the rules other than those The Age carried last spring, following the meeting of the football rules committee at the Hotel Biltmore. We could print the account of last spring, word for word, and impart just what the rules tend to bring out. For the benefit of those who possibly missed that issue and to reassure any o four readers who do not feel certain about some of the changes, we are again going over them. IT WILL BE HERE FOR YOU! HAPPY RHONE AND HIS Versatile Orchestra Consisting of 35 Jazz Soloists At Manhattan Casino 155TH STREET AND EIGHTH AVENUE Friday, October 15, 1920 Dance from 9 to 11:30—Enjoy Celebrity Program from 12:30 to 1:30—then dinner till morning. The most important change in the rules is the abolishment of the punt out after a touchdown. Henceforth, try for a goal following a touchdown will be made directly in front of the goal posts regardless to where the ball has been carried over. No more shall teams of fair defense, boasting one or two players with accurate toes, have the great advantage over the hard plunging teams, that they used to have. The former may make two goals from the held, netting them to points; but this will be offset by a plugging combination's touchdown, inasmuch as following a touchdown the scoring of a goal by the latter will be but a matter of form with the ball directly in front of the posts. One touchdown will, nine times out of ten, be worth seven points, thereby being more valuable than two field goals. This ruling clearly gives increased value to the hard plugging team whose gains are magic slowly but surely. In ball as some choose to call it at the expense of the tendency toward one man stardom where excellent kickers are concerned. This one fact should be a great help to the game as any rule will be which places more reliance on the team and less on an individual. Forward Passer Protected While it is true that the most important change in this year's rules is the punt out abolishment, a new rule which shows wonderful wisdom is that which protects the thrower of the forward pass. According to this new rule, a player shall not be attacked after he has delivered the forward pass—or to be more exact, after the ball has left his hands. We have always wondered why opposing players were permitted to come around and attack this member of a team after he is out of the play. This year infringements on this rule will be treated as unnecessary roughness. As the punt out rule benefits straight football, this protection afforded by the new rule is sure to improve the more open game. A thrower will now have more time and will thereby take better aim before making a pass. Thus it can be seen that both sides have been looked after by the committee with as few changes as possible. PIERCE HITS THREE HOMERS IN ONE DAY Last Sunday at Dyckman Oval, the Bacharach Giants engaged in a doubleheader attraction with the Baltimore Black Sox and twice humbled the visitors by amazingly big scores against them in each game. Though the Baltimore team got away to a flying start, getting four runs in the very first inning and adding one more to its credit in a second time at bat, it was unable to withstand the Bacharach onush when this championship outfit began working smoothly. For four full innings the local boys were hold scoreless by their Baltimore opponents. Bacharach batters failed both in the third and fourth innings when two men were on base and all that was needed was a single. In the first instance only one man was out and Rojo had gone to first on four balls. Barber singled and Rojo went to third. With men on first and third neither Shirley, the Bacharach's new outfielder purchased from the Indianapolis A. B. C.'s son Marcelle were able to drive in a run with a single. Again in the very next inning, with one out, Lundy grounded a hot one down the first base line and reached second on the first bag tender's error; Handy stretched a single to right field into a double, thereby sending Lundy to third. With but one out and men on second and third, Pierce fanned and Rojo popped out to right field. The Black Sox went into the fifth inning with renewed confidence after they had held the Bacharachs scoreless in such tight places. Redding succeeded in refiring the Baltimore quickly making all pop easy infield flies, and then started an offensive which witnesses will not soon forget. Redding, the first Bacharach up, hammered out a drive, which went clearly over the center field fence for a homer; Barber, followed Redding and fanned; Shiveley grounded to third and reached first on the third baseman's error; Marcelles famed and Shiveley showed New York fans some fast running when he raced from first to second then to third and home when the Baltimore second baseman missed the catcher's throw and Blaine Hall, playing center, overran the ball. With Redding and Shiveley's runs chalked up against him, Smith the Black Sox pitcher lost all control. Brown, the next batter up, singled to right field, Lundy walked, Handy walked, Pierce walked, sending Brown home and leaving the bases full. At this juncture Smith was removed and Logan was sent on the mound if his stead. It fell to Cuban Rojo to face the new Baltimore hurler, while three Bacharachs waned on the bases for relief. The Cuban hammered out a hard swat to right field which emptied the bases, and left him poised safely on second. Redding came, to bat once more in this inning and sent Rojo, home on a hot grounder which the Black Sox second baseman fumbled. During an attempt to head, the Cuban off from home Redding reached second and Rojo beat the ball to the plate. Barber celebrated his second time at bat in the eventful fifth inning by placing a nice bunt down the third base line and raced to first, second and third when pitcher Logan heaved wild to first base. Barber never reached home but the Bacharachs had accounted for eight runs in this inning which placed them three ahead of their rivals. Redding then, going at his best, famed the first three batsmen who faced him in the sixth stanza. The Bacharachi continued to add to their lead by getting two more runs in the sixth inning and three in the seventh, but the Black Sox never got more than the five tallies gotten in the first two innings of play. The final score was Bacharachi, 13; Baltimore Black Sox, 5. Second Game The second game proved to be more one-sided than the first. The Baltimore team had apparently lost all courage by its failure to score after the second innning in the first game. Pitcher Hodge working for the visitors, performed brilliantly, yet tour home runs were scored against him by Pierce and Handy. Pierce, the Bacharach's first baseman, had his best day this season. The heavy-hitting infielder drove three homers over the center field fence. All of which proves that this first sacker has removed the jinx which has presented him from getting his share of hits in New York this summer. Pierce is a consistent hitter in Atlantic City where the Bacharachs play three or four times a week. A home run has been hammered out by the tall tender of the initial bag in almost every series during the past month. String Bean Williams twirled for the Bacharachs and for the most part held the Baltimore clan safe. "Bean" got into deep water in the second inning, however, and the Sox got to him for two runs. Again in the fourth, depe to a careless muff by Pierce of a throw by Lundy, two more Baltimore runners crossed the plate safely. This put the Southern boys in the lead in the scoring. Williams held them scoreless in their fifth time at bat and then came the Bacharachs for their second big rally of the day. Strangely enough the local boys again drove in eight runs in this fifth inning as they had done in the first game. These eight tallies brought their total up to 11, for the Bacharachs had gotten 3 runs in the second inning. Five more Extended One Week by Popular Demand Commencing Monday, Sept. 27 The Season's Sensational Success E. C. BROWN Presents runs were collected in the sixth inning by these swatmen, but the Black Sox never got further than the four runs gotten in the early past of the game. This left the score Standing Bacharachs, 16: Black Sox, 4.

Happy so pleased his friends last April when he staged the most unique affair ever given in the 15th Street Dance Hall that when given a chance to renew their orders for boxes, most of April's attendants applied for their same boxes. Saturday, Sept. 25th, marks the last day for old box holders to renew their orders. Thereafter the few remaining will be disposed of to those whose names are received first at Happy's headquarters; phone, Circle 1454. A Rhone's Versatile Orchestra now consists of thirty-five trained jazz soloists, which is live more than he had last spring. Again Happy will feature Jimnie Davis, late of "Peek A-Boo Co.," and undoubtedly one of the country's best trap drummers. Supporting Jimmy Davis will be eight Violins, two Banjos, two Clarinetes, three Cornetts, two Trombones, four Saxophones, two French Horns, three Bass Violins, Two Flutes, two Pianos, one Xylophone and another drummer. This will in all probability be the greatest orchestra that has ever played in Manhattan Casino. Last April Happy staged his first affair and the crowd which collected to pay him and his clever associates homage was very different from that seen at most dances. The general admission of seventy-five cents was sufficient to keep the undesirable element away. There was at this Spring Classic Dance and Midnight Cabaret virtually the same crowd found annually at the Alpha Bowling Club's Ball. Many were in evening dress and all seemed bent on satisfying their craze to dance, while Happy's Orchestra played one popular air after another. Such merriment continued till 12:30 and then the guests were treated to one hour of the best cabaret entertaining sustainable - The bill consisted of Miss Florence Emery, Miss Majorie Sapp, Miss Naomi Harris, and the star of the evening, Miss Lucille Hegerman of Chicago. On Oct. 15th all of these ladies will be heard once more by Harlem's lovers of good singing. They will have as co-partners on the bill Miss Naomi Hunter Mitchell, St. C.

When the teams took their marks for the medley race, the last event, the St. Christopher Club was leading the Morningside A. C. by one point, 24 to 23. Through the running of Walter Higgins, the star distancer of Columbia University, who ran the mile leg of the race for the Morningside, their team won the races from St. Christopher, as well as the trophy, with a final score of 28 to 27.

In our issue of two weeks ago we erred in calling catcher Yank of the Bacharach Giants the second backstop of his team. We had been led to the field where it is his custom to leave individual out of it and simply play for the team's interest. Naturally there are players on the team who seemingly overshadow him in importance. It has come to our notice, however, from no more auto than Mr. Craw, the part owner of the Bacharachs, that Yank is the first string catcher of his outfit. Furthermore this backstop is one of the highest salaries men on the team. All of which means that this modest player is possibly highest salaried in baseball for the team, and are reported to have the largest wage scale of any other colored team in the country. MUSICIANS Marus Given Third. A Correction. THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1920 SLC JOB WORK AT NEWARK POLICE DEPARTMENT i. By "Dua" NEWARK, N. J.--Before one of the largest crowds that has ever witnessed an athletic meet in New Jersey, the St. Christopher relay, composed of Foster, Wetlinger, McCannon and Hart, captured the half-mile relay at the Newark Police games held at Irvington, N. J., on Saturday. "He's Foster, the old reliable, started and turned over a lead of three yards to Dudley Hatt, who accounted for an additional ten yard gain on the second leg. Brad Wetlinger, running third, lost a few yards but sent Capt. Eddie McCannon away on the anchor leg of the race with little comedy was injected in the race. McCannon, who is not more than 5 feet 4 inches in height, ran anchor against a white boy who must have been six feet tall. The crowd let out a yell when the big fellow caught "Mac" about 100 yards from the finish, but when they were about fifty yards from the finish, the big boy, he if he were standing still, winning the race by three yards. Another of the too frequent raw deals was put over on a colored boy when Herbert F. Hays, representing the Berkley K. A., C. C., won the 300 yard dash by a foot and was given second by the judges. A white boy, of course, was declared the winner. Julian Thorfinn of St. Christopher, ran use of the three shoes he has shown this season when he placed fourth in the short mark. McCannon and Carter of, St. C. finished third and fourth respectively in the Henry Lander of Alpa accounted for second prize in the high jump. ON THE COBER PATH The weekend was the busiest this year in local athletic circles. Five meets in three days kept the track and field performers as busy as bees. Lack of competent officials marred the handling of the Salem Crescent games on Thursday. The crowds continually stared on the track, interfering with the runners. The failure of the printer to get the programs out in time caused a confusion as there was no means of identifying the runners. It appeared to those in the seats that Goutteau beat Merse in the sixyard dash. Win, S. Parker, who won the 880 in the banker's games has a style exactly like George Cornetta the New York A. C. distance runner. Eric Dawkins, winner of the open 100-yard shot at the B. A. L. games is a student at Stuyvesant High School. This youngster showed likely form in his race and should be heard from in the coming indoor meet. All that Wilson Jackson lacks is speed to become a successful pedestrian. His form is almost perfect. To our knowledge Jackson is the second college athlete to tackle this branch of athletic competitions years ago, Harry Mason of the Alpha Physical Culture Club essayed to be a walker. That Cliff Mitchell brought home the beautiful $40 trophy donated by the Philadelphia Inquirer to the University of Maryland, was not due to any assistance given him by the officials or spectators along the route. On the contrary the officials car gage grubble the second man, every attention in their effort to have him catch and beat Mitchell. The lift of the colored athlete is a hard case. The Solen-Crescent A. C did not have a single entry in the Harlem-Heights A. L. games on Sunday. The spectators were attending the speeches and said the outdoor season would see a complete regimen of their club.

HARTTIN VINYL Albert Smith, who formerly represented the Indian-American A.

His case was diagnosed as appendicitis and an immediate operation advised. Smith's robust constitution enabled his athletics served him in good stand and he improved so nearly that he able to have last week for Washington. The Harlem-Heights League has set the proper precedent in giving recognition to the colored clubs in the matter of officials. The manner in which the colored officials fulfilled their duties the games on Sunday evoked the highest commendation. "Long George" Williams lost the relay race, and eventually the point trophy, for St. Christopher when he weakened on the mile leg of the race, held Higgins in the fourth lap, for three so rapidly that Higgins gained at least fifty yards, which was too much for the other three S. C. runners to overcome. Clarence Sherman made a game effort to overhaul the Morningside anchor man, but the best the crunch middle-divisor team could do was his team from fourth place to second. FOOTBALL SEASON OPENS AT HOWARD Washington, D. C.—The opening of Howard University this fall will mark a new epoch in the history of football at the big Negro colleges of this country. Consistent with the new Howard, her new policies of extension and development, her far-sighted administrators, and the mighty influx of a larger and more cosmopolitan student body, the preface of the University in football is the faculty. Prepared on all sides by the seasual rivalry of crafty Lincoln, the grim determination of industrious Hampton, and other opportunities that must be met on the gridiron, supported by the unbroken spirit of a loyal student body, alumni and friends, more than ever Howard University is determined to produce this year the strongest and fastest team possible in the game. To every detail of the game with the view of devising an invisible coaching system and maintaining the records of former years Lincoln and Howard to Clash Hitherto by prestige and merit Howard has been the terror of all ranking collegiate football squads. Being the gathering point of the largest university group of Negro students in the world, Howard both by natural ability and by development, Howard has produced teams that played with a feeling that victory was their inherent right. Football this season will open under a new coach, one who has played "big game" games and is competent of training. This team will indicate that the program of training is to be more vigorous than ever. Thanksgiving Day, at the American League Park in Washington, Lincoln and Howard will clash. Under the training of Pullard the Lincoln team can boost its success in the country. This is the entire game of the country. This is the entire game of the thrilling contest. Both teams will be well coached. Columbia Cubs to Play Last Game. We will be Columbia Cubs to play, then the baseball game on Sunday.

I have Haitian Conditions Under The American Occupation through all of this the life of not a single American citizen has been taken The overthrow of Guillaume and its attending consequences did not constitute the cause of American intervention in Haiti, but merely furnished the awaited opportunity. Since July 20, 1915, American military forces have been in control of Haiti since the end of the war, until there are now somewhere near three thousand Americans under arms in the republic. From the very first, the attitude of the Occupation has been that it was dealing with a conquered territory. Haitian forces were disarmed, military posts and barracks were occupied, the army was under control for the headquarters for the Occupation. After selecting a new and acceptable president for the country, steps were at once taken to coprelate the Haitian government to sign a convention in which it virtually forewrote its independence. This was accomplished by September 10, 1915, and although the terms of this convention of the administration of the Haitian customs by American civilian officials, all the principal custom houses of the country had been seized by military force and placed in charge of American Marine officers before the end of August. The disposition of the funds collected in duties from the time of the conquest of Haiti was the time of their administration, and civilian officials is still a question concerning which the established censorship in Haiti allows no discussion. Provisions of Convention: It is interesting to note the wide difference between the convention which Haiti was forced to sign and the convention which was in course of diplomatic negotiation at the moment of intervention of Haiti and gave something, the Occupation convention demands everything of Haiti and gives nothing. The Occupation convention is really the same convention which the Haitian government peremptorily abolished in 1914, except that in addition to American control of Haitian finances it also provides for American control of the Haitian military forces. The Fuller convention contained neither of these provisions, United States found itself in a position where it could not be dared to ask, it used brute force and took it. But even a convention which practically deprived Haiti of its independence was found not wholly adequate for the embodiment of all that was contained in the convention, still all of it formed some合建assumptions, it decided that Haiti must have a new constitution. It was drained and presented to the Haitian assembly for adoption, assembly balked cheerfully at the artificially imposed constitutional disability presented Allem from joining land in Haiti. Haiti had long considered the denial of the right to choose a new leader, a bondage against overbearing economic inflation, and it must be admitted that the several states of the United States that have similar provisions Assembly Dissolved The halking of the assembly resulted in its being divided by actual military force and the locking of doors of the Chamber. There has been no Haitian military action until the situation was submitted to a plebiscite by a decree of the President, although such a method of constitutional revision was clearly unconstitutional! Under the circumstances of the Occupation the plebiscite was submitted for the desired change and the situation was promulgated on June 18, 1915. Thus Haiti was given a new constitution by a flagrantly unconstitutional method, a new law, an important fundamental law, and an inclusive Special Article which declares will be the mother of the president of the principal step by which the independence of a neighboring republic has been taken away, the people plead under foreign military domination from which they have no appeal, and exposed to foreign exploitation against which they are defended. All of this has been the result of the eminent of the United States, however without any act by Congress and without any knowledge of the American people. Martial Law Rules The law by which Haiti ruled today is marital law dispensed by Americans. There is a total of Haitian civil government, but it is entirely designated by the military. Occupation. The elected government is so very good that it is very good Haitian contented to one the powerlessness of himself and his children. He told me that the American authorities gave it to here, to recommendations made by him of his children, that they would not given dissatisfies matters pertinent to their own personal knowledge. The provisions of both the old and the new constitutions are ignored in that there is no Haitian legislative body, and there has been none since the dissolution of the assembly in 1990. There is a common members appointed by the president, which functions effectively only when carrying out the will of the Occupation. never gotten anything for voting and am not looking for anything. The statement in last week's writing of the Loura Booster's Club was an error. It should have real Lorraine Booster's Club, which is an adjunct organization of a few men, members of the regular Independent Republican Club, which meets at Cairn Hall West where he hopes this will help the kropupulous readers of a typographical error found once in a while in all newspapers. Of course the Negro organization paper particularly, must be the target. Rev. H. Prince preached last Friday evening at Shilo Baptist Church and at Calvary, Sunday, September 19, morning and evening and will leave on Saturday, September 20, North Carolina, where he will take up the ministerial work assigned to him. Mrs. Lucy J. Hill of Mercer, Tenn. and Mrs. E. Caldigh of Memphis, Tenn., left Monday September 30, for their home, after visiting son and brother of H. F. Caldigh at his home in Potter's Township, N. K. Indeed the Occupation often overreaches the civil courts. A prisoner brought for the proper court, exacerbated, and discharged, is nevertheless, free from all funds are collected by the Occupation and are dispensed at its will and pleasure. The greater part of these funds is intended for the maintenance of the military forces. There is the strictest manning of the press, the Haitian government, the public, and the criticism of the Occupation or the Haitian government. Each newspaper in Haiti received an order to that country from the Occupation, and the same order carried the injunction not to print any order. Nothing that might reflect Haitian occupation administration. Haitian occupation administration. It is allowed to press the newspapers of the United States. The Haitian people justly complain that not only is the convention intended to the best interests of their country, but that the convention, such as it is not being carried out in accordance with the spirit in which they were carried out to believe it would be carried out. Except one, all of the obligations in the convention which the United States undertakes in labor of Haiti are contained in the first article of the document the entire article substantially obligates to the United States assumed by Haiti. But nowhere in those fourteen articles is there anything to indicate that Haiti would be subjected to military domination. In Article I of the United Nations Convention on the proper and efficient development of its agricultural, mineral and commercial resources and in the establishment of the finances of Haiti on a firm and solid basis. And the whole convention and, especially, the protections of the instrument can be construed only if mean that that aid would be extended through the supervision of civilian officials. Excuse for Military Occupation The one promise of the United States to Haiti not contained in the first article of the convention is that clause of Mottele XIX which says that, should Haiti be forced to accept the terms, it will lend an efficient aid for the preservation of Haitian independence and the maintenance of a governmental adequate for the protection of life, property and individual rights of its citizens, which the Haitians had a right to interact as a guarantee to them against foreign侵害 should first of all be produced against the Haitian people themselves and after the only pro-immunity rights of military demons can be leased. There are several distinct forces—national, military, humanitarian—work in Haiti which, leading to aggravates the conditions they forcibly have created, largely so pernicious. The most sinister of these the financial engulfment in Haiti by the National City Bank of Haiti, the largest bank in the country, is depicted in detail in a subsequent article: the military Occupation has made and continues to make military Occupation necessary. The instigation given is that it is necessary for the pacification of the country. Pacification would never have been necessary had not American policies been filled with so many stupid and brutal blunders and the "pecification" means merely the hunting of ragged Haitians in the hills with machine guns. There then is the force which the several hundred American civilian placeholders constitute. They have found in Hart's the valuable promised land for Joey. Hart's wife, Linda, did not wish to see the present status discontinued. Most of these deserving democrats are Southerners. The head of the custom service of Hart was a civilization of the parishes of Louisiana. Hart was a man who was Deputy Collector of Customs at Pasagona, Miss. (population, 3,379, 190 Census). The Superintendent of Public Instruction was a school teacher in Louisiana at State University. Hart was from the special office, Mr. McHenry is also from Louisiana. American: in Luxury. Many of the Occupation officers are in the same category with the civilian place holders. These men have taken up the position of a familiar to the Estonian people in beautiful villages in Estonia that could not keep a hired girl in the United States have a half-dog servant. They risk an autumn spot then over a vast American head of a department in Haiti has no automobile for transport. Whose parents are members of the Haitian cohort, who are theoretically those have no such convenience or luxury. While I was there, the President himself was added to borrow an automobile for the Occupation for a school classmate. A schoolmate of the Superintendent of Instruction has an automobile furnished at government expense, who is the Haitian Minister of Public Instruction, his supervisor, other officers. These men are in the same category as government officers in caring for the women and children among all other citizens. It must be amusing, when it is not modelling to the Haitians to see with what the painful air these people bear upon them as they fly by. The plan adopted by the Democratic party at San Francisco said of the Wabisong policy in Mexico. The Administration remembering always the sacrifices of the men and women on the government and are instituting will come only from the men and women making it here, being united either by the same cause or by the same intention to enterble their future by implying from the outside a rule upon their lives. Haiti has never been so distracted for its mission as Mexico. And even in its missions of greatest distraction it never shattered an American citizen, it never injured an American woman, it never insulted an American man, it never insulted an American woman. And yet, the Administration who loyt purpose was proclaimed as above with less justification than Australias invasion of Serbia, or Germany's rape of Belgium, without warrant other than the doctrine that "might make right" has conquered Haiti. It has done this through the very period when, in the 1960s, the government were laying down their lives overrated "for democracy, for the rights of those who submit to authority to have a voice in their own government, for the rights and liberties of small nations." By command of the author of "pilism publicity and orientation" of the congress, the government has asserted a command whose secret has been well guarded by a rigid membership from the American nation, and kept a people enveloped by the military tyranny which it once has involved purpose to change throughout the world.

There are over 200,000 Negroes in Harlem, and they are still coming. In the new denominational realignment of the people coming to New York, there is a strong trend toward this Presbyterian Church. There is no limitation to it growth and influence under a strong and forceful leadership. We have supported ourselves. We have outgrown our present quarters, and our lease, which expires October 1st, cannot be renewed. The Presbytery's provision to house us in a beautiful church edifice by October 1st, has been seriously hampered. The situation demands immediate action. We are negotiating for three 4- and basement dwellings in a very desirable location. We appeal to every student and grad. house of Lincoln University, because the work memorabilia the life and character of the late president of Lincoln University, Pa. will be student and graduate of Biddle University, for they were with us in the beginning of the work; to all who have in any way been helped by Presbyterian generosity, influence and contact, and especially to all Presbyterians, who believe that there should be a church in Greater New York measuring up to every opportunity for service, and that will be a religious, literary and social retreat for the visitors to our city and the summer students. We must raise $10,000 by October 15, 1920. Help us in our supreme effort to "but it over!" and we will take our place in the front ranks of the churches of the city in service and influence. Any amount from $1.00 and up will be appreciated. Please send contributions to Rev. Jesse F. Forbes, D. D., Stated Clerk of New York City Presbytery, 156 Fifth Avenue, New York City. W. R.
