Tammany Make Clean Sweep; Regains Absolute City Control
Smith, Republican, from the 19th Assembly District, Manhattan, was also defeated, the Democratic candidate, James Male, running right along with Martin J. Healy, the Democrat who defeated Dr. Roberts for the Board of Aldermen.
It is also probable that District, Attorney Harry E. Lewis of Kings county, candidate for Justice of the Supreme Court, Second Judicial District, comprising Kings, Queens, Richmond and Nassau counties, will be elected, as he was credited with a 6,000 lead over the second candidate on the Democratic ballot.
Republicans will find some consolation in the fact that Horace W. Palmer, Republican candidate for the Assembly in the 21st A. D., is probably elected., Mr. Palmer was named to run as successor to the only colored Assemblyman in the State, John Clifford Hamilton of New York City, who declined to attend.

At the request of Colonel Little Controller Craig broke the ground impetuat Mayor Hylan, after which the 15th Band played the Star Spangled Banner and the meeting was closed with benediction by the Rev. J. W. Brown. Criticism was expressed by many citizens because the meeting was used by members of the Democratic party to circulate the crowd with propaganda for Mayor Hylan, although Colonel Little had expressly said that the meeting would not be political in any respect. The committee was also criticised for allowing Alderman George W. Harris and candidate John William Smith to speak when Alderman Roberts, who introduced the resolution for the appropriation of funds for the building of the armory, was ignored by those who planned the program. Work will be begun on the new armory of the 15th at an early date, and the building is expected to be completed within the next year.

Mayor John F. Hylan, Democratic candidate to succeed himself, has been reelected by the largest majority ever given in municipal election. He is credited with a plurality of 412,980 over Henry H. Curran, the Coalition candidate, and in his victory he carries into office every candidate on the Tammany ticket with the possible exception of Judge William A. Andrews, Republican, whose election as Judge of the Court of Appeals is indicated through large majorities received by him upstate.

Philadelphia, Pa.—Amos Scott,
colored, was elected City Magistrate at Tuesday's election. Although many white women are said to have cut Scott the colored, voters throughout the city gave the race candidate solid support.
"The success of Mayor Hylan is attributed to his campaign based on claims of having retained five cent tares on city transportation lines and to a reputed revolt against alleged interference in city affairs by State Administration. The mayor made his appeal to the voters as a "friend of the poor man."
To offset the white defection the majority of Negroes voted for Scott only, failing to stand behind the other Republican candidates for Magistrate. This was done to insure the election of Scott:
The election gives Tammany absolute control of the city government. The two offices filled by Republicans during the past two years. President of the Borough of Manhattan and President of the Board of Aldermen are reclaimed by the Democrats. Substantial increases are made in the Democratic aldermanic majority. the Republicans losing one and probably both of their Negro Aldermen Dr. Charles H. Roberis in the 19th A. D. and George W. Harps in the 21st. A white Democrat is elected in the 19th, but the race retains representation on the Board through the Assemblyman from the 21st, as both candidates, Harris and John William Smith, a member of the Tammany Hall United Colored Democracy which has its headquarters in Harlem, are colored.
RED CROSS APPEALS IN 5TH ROLL CALL
The Fifth Roll Call of the New York County Chapter of the American Red Cross is announced by H D Brouell, director, and he gives the information that sixty-five per cent of the unraised are to be devoted exclusively to the care of disabled ex-service men and their families.
The defeat of Dr. Roberts is attributed mainly to the defection of the vote in the colored section of his district. An unofficial analysis of the vote shows that he was given the united party support in the white sections, but that his Democratic opponent received majorities in the election districts on the East side of the 19th.
The work of the Red Cross in the Harlem district has been of inestimable value. Its outstanding feature has been the work done in training women of the race through the Red Cross Home Nursing Classes conducted at West Litchi street branch library by Mrs. Jerothne H. Winfield, B. N., under the parent organization. Stores of women have been prepared, to care for and nurse cases of sickness in the home, and the graduating exercises, held at various times have been educative and informative
Mayor Hyland's majority was considerably in excess of the majorities given other Democratic candidates, but all of them were overwhelmingly elected. Estimated majorities are: Charles L. Craig, for Comptroller, 249,253. Murray Hulbert, for President of the Board of Ablermen, 268,728.
Fred R. Moore has been asked to accept the chairmanship of the Harlem division, and a meeting will be called at a convenient date to endis, the support and active cooperation of Harlemites, both men and women. Last year's Roll Call netted $300,000, but nearly $900,000 was spent by the New York County Chapter. A local committee will be organized to direct this effort in Harlem.

WHITE MAN RAPES WHITE GIRL; CONVICTED, BUT FREE ON BAIL
Miami, Florida—Only the orderly processes of legal machiner were called into play here on October 28th, when William Taylor, a white man, forty-two years of age, was convicted in the criminal courts of having raped a little white girl, ten years old.
Taylor, a surveyor by occupation, boarded at a house in which the little girl was visiting. According to testimony of witnesses, the child was made a victim to the man's lustful desires, but there was no attempt at summary action on part of either citizens or the Ku Klux Klan.
It goes without saying that if the accused had been a Negro the tale would have to be told, differently. It is evident that the sin is the influencing motive.
Taylor was not even incarcerated after being convicted but was released on $10,000 bail, pending sentence later by Judge Norfleet.

Washington, D. C.-Work has been started on the new dining hall and home economics building at Howard University. It is to cost approximately $322,000.

NEGRO PRESS COMMENT ON HARDING'S SPEECH
Philadelphia Christian Recorder.
We must not put too much emphasis upon the President's speech. It cannot do us much harm and cannot do us much good. Our trust is in ourselves. Unless we wake up to our economic opportunities and demand them, we cannot do much. The President's speech may do something to help crystallize opinion among white people, that they ought to give more justice to colored people—an opinion that is gradually growing among white people all over the country. It will also have the opposite effect of bringing more white people into the Republican party, and setting some against us, but 'the end our destiny is in our own hands, not President Harding's.
Our personal view is that the speech is a good one. But we must judge more by what President Harding does rather than what he says. He has a splendid chance to insist upon political opportunity—will he deny what he ask others to give? He can do a great deal for better educational advantages. The United States Government now controls great educational machinery throughout the South, created by the Morrill bill the Smith-Lever bill, the Smith-Herbert laws, etc. It is notorious that the Negro is not getting a square deal in the educational field, not only from Southern States but from the United States of which Mr. Harding is president. The national government can do much if Mr. Harding says so, and insists, in the economic field, by giving Negro farmers better opportunities for fighting, and a thousand other ways in which the Negro has not had a square deal. So we say we shall watch to see what Mr. Harding does, for he can do more than any other man in the country.
Meanwhile, let us remember our fate is in our own hands. Let us organize organize, organize, pour policies, our money, our religion, our labor.
Indianapolis Freeman.
The President's appeal to the Negro's sense of pride in this connection proves one thing, and that is that there are too many Negroes in the Republican party to be of any material benefit to themselves or the G. O. P.
Baltimore Ohio American.
It comes with poor grace from a President of the United States to thunder "Race amalgamation, they, cannot be" and close his eyes to milions of mutilated in this country who represent the last of the white-race. We indently believe with the President that coloured people should divide their votes, but we should have preferred to hear hir, say so before his election rather than after it.
Rocky Mountain. (N. C.) Voice.
Barring social relationship of the races, the President made it plain that the Negro should be given equal opportunity in the race of life, equal justice to white and black. The speech is significant because it was spoken in the very heart of the South, and without doubt the greatest speech, since the days of Lincol championing the cause of our race.
Bethlehem, House, Nashville, Tenn., a community centre for colored people operated by the women of the Southern Methodist Missionary Council, will be closed for a year, while the new building is being erected. The work has for years had the active cooperation of the authorities and students of both Vanderbilt University and the colored university, Pisk.
The Woman's Auxiliary of the Southern Presbyterian Church held this summer three conferences for colored women. To the usual September meeting at Tuscaloosa, All., were added conferences at Columbia, U.S.A. and Atlanta, California, of those attending were sent by local white Presbyterian auxiliaries. They keep in touch with their delegate after her return, cooperating with her in the colored community.

Woods of the Pinney Woods School, Braxton, is president, and under her administration work for the ensuing year as outlined included plans for cooperation with the State Department of Education and the State Teachers' Association, in a campaign to explain the compulsory/Education law to our people and encourage compliance with it. Organizing mothers' clubs, establishing an educational day, with sermons preached, cooperating with the State Health Department in the fight against tuberculosis, introducing child's welfare work, and supporting the national body's effort to make the Frederick Douglas home at Anacostia, D. C., a national shrine, were matters taken up, by the body.

BALTIMORE, MD
Baltimore, Md.—A large assemblage met at the Community House Thursday evening, November 3rd to surprise Mrs. Stanley, Franz.

DEAREST GIRLS;
DRAFTY GIRLS:
"How do you like this weather? Cold isn't it? No! 'batterbox,' I am not a 'Chili Bone.' No! a 'Frozen Tainah,' but you know (you know) it wasn't any 160 warm last. Friday. 'Dolly' and 'Dreama,' won't you please try to get more girls from your city, so you can organize a club? It's just lots and lots of fun. Somebody in Fayetteville is telling tales on you 'Happiness.' Our Halloween social was a success but we missed our absent members. Why didn't you come? We had a little Red Riding Hood there and everybody thought it was 'Red.' I hope you enlisted yourself, 'Kid Palmer.' "Lissie Bloosma, look forward to the books I promised you, 'Jesse James and 'Rabbit'). Kindness, I am going to cuddle you a letter. My time is out now girls, so I can't send any more messages. 'BROWNIE.'"
DEAR GIRLS:
I can't it wonderful? Do you dare ask what? Well isn't it wonderful that it is my week to write, and I can think of so much to say that my brain is all in a whirl, "Lotus Blossom" fooled us Wednesday, night. She appeared as a Spanish dammel instead of a Japanese maiden. Friday night "Brownie" "Lotus Blossom" and I went over to "Gay" concert and it was wonderful. Don't you know, girls, I looked in all of the dictionaryes within my reach and yet I can't find words to describe "Gay" concert. The costumes were beautiful and the entertainment was Oh! pshaw, all I can say is that all of the girls who didn't come missed the time of their lives. Just think, girls all of this was the work of "Gay" the "Wonder Girl." Now don't you think she is wonderful? I would love to tell you

NEWS AND NOTES
Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones of the Philip Stokes Foundation has returned with his committee of experts from a year's study of the educational needs of the West Coast of Africa. This work was undertaken at the request of the various mission Boards, of the United States, England, Belgium and France, and had the active cooperation of the governments of all these countries.
When, tobacco fell from fifty to seventeen cents a pound several thousand Virginia growers, launched a cooperative tobacco association, to include Virginia and the two Carolinas, for collective marketing of their product, after the plan of the very successful trucking associations of eastern Virginia. No marketing will be attempted in any state until at least fifty per cent. of its growers have signed a five-year contract with the association. The appeal has been made to growers of tobacco, irrespective of race.
A remarkable conference has been held in Raleigh, N. C., by the state boards of education and of health, to discuss with the leading Negroes of the state, teachers, business and professional men, and leading women, questions affecting the welfare of their race. The program of both boards in regard to the Negroes was set forth by state officials, and the frankest and fullest discussion of them, and of race relations on various lines, was invited and evoked:
Twenty-four counties in South Carolina have Jeanes supervisors. City schools are also being improved. Eleven colored schools have been accepted by the state Board of Education as high schools to receive state aid. In each case this action was recommended by the white district trustees.
Ninety colored school principles and supervisors were sent this summer from South Carolina to the summer schools of Hampton and Tuskegee.

Let's all try to make it a banner one in regards to attendance. "Say, "Wes," I see that "Zin" is working for "Tubby" these days. How come? Mr. R. W. C. of E. 2nd street, attention! Just watch your step and don't marry a girl with red hair. You know "L's" is rather auburn. Ha! Ha! Say, girlies, "Atalanta" about her "slinging wine" bean. He is so droopy that we have named him "Sleeping Sickness." If ever there was an affliction, he is it! "Brownie," I will return the tickets you send as soon as possible. Will explain my delay later. Best regards-to all members. Au revoir.
Your masquerade social was indeed an enjoyable evening for me. I enjoyed myself immensely. "Dolly" and "Dreams" of Massachusetts, I shall be in Norwalk, Conn. Thanksgiving week and would be delighted if you girls would come down for a day. I know a Massachusetts dancer. Are your initials H. W.? "Dolly" send me your address, then I'll tell you just where I'll be. "Buster," did you receive my photo? Girls, refrain from all "slang and "knocks." Remember, there are other readers of the column besides the members. Let there be refinement among us. A hint is sufficient.
for the festival of white coyote, witchcraft and black coyote. This night we would be walked in mystery while our friends wondered who we were up until dusk, when all enchantments is supposed to cease. In my wondersings I came across clowns, farmers (who fall that calling only one day in the 365), blushing maids who been playing football a few hours before. A bearless youth passed me with dainty mincing steps wearing his first long trousers while his brawny big sister walked in front with large strides; and people of all nationalities, colors, shapes and hues surrounded me (a guest life). 'Brownie', it was impossible for me to be at the social Wednesday evening a week ago and I am sorry. 'Cutie', and old friend of yours is in town and I don't wonder whether you have seen him yet. 'Bloomss' we don't hear from you very often, and won't some one please find 'Teddy?' I'm sure that she is lost. 'Bobbie' what are you looking at ((morn-corn) about? 'Mom Smoke' if you don't stop smoking up things, I'm afraid that things will be in a sad state. 'Wes' you blessed little midget (ha! ha!) you would brighten my vision if I only could see you now.

DEFEAT OF DR. ROBERTS.
One of the most regrettable results of the municipal election in New York was the defeat of Alderman Charles H. Roberts for reelection, after having made such a fine record of constructive legislation during his first term. The failure of the Negro voters to give Dr. Roberts the full measure of their support has cost them the notable representation that had been won in the Nineteenth Assembly District. Other causes may have contributed to this result, such as the changing of the boundaries of the district by a Republican legislature. But the final responsibility for this loss of racial representation must be laid upon the members of the race themselves. Until the race learns to give its earnest and undivided support to those representatives who have earned it by their work, it will fail to receive, that political recognition that it might otherwise attain. The failure to resent the surcast upon the race by Healy, the Democrat elected, to the effect that a Negro should not be elected to the Board of Aldermen, is a blot upon the record of the colored voters of Harlem that will have to be wiped out.
NOT TO BE IGNORED.
One of the conclusions to be drawn from the present situation brought about in the West 153th Street Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association is that no central board of directors can blow over the moral standards that should obtain in such an organization. Like a house of cards. The attitude taken by most of the ministers of the larger churches of the Harlem section show
from the sanctioning of a doubtful example is based on sound logical reasoning. What these patrons have done well in withhold their approval from applications for the young men of their congregations to join an institution, where leadership has fallen into unsafe hands, their dips do not end there.
The institutional advantages in the way of mental and physical training, which constituted a part of the Association work, must be replaced by adequate substitutes. It becomes the duty of the churches interested in the upbuilding of the youth of their congregation, as well as those outside the church, to provide the equipment necessary to carry on this training. Gymnasiums and swimming pools, where athletic games and contests can be held, are now necessary to the full development of the kind of institutional church work needed.
With the provision of such an equipment, as well as the establishment of classes for literary and religious instruction, the work hereof carried on under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., can be continued under happier auspices and without the danger of present-
ing the wrong kind of moral leadership. While the establishment of this substitute for the demoralized organization will be a matter requiring some expenditure of money and the devoted efforts of a competent corps of Christian workers, it is not a matter impossible to be achieved. In fact, the effort to provide such an equipment and to do such a work would be the best thing possible
POLITICAL CONSISTENCY.
Tire Aor has for many years waged a consistent fight for racial representation within party lines, in National and State and local politics. Substantial results have been the fruit of this policy along all lines. But in order to achieve such results, it has been necessary for the voters of the race to begin at the primaries and work up by degrees. In the present municipal campaign, many of our so-called leaders seem to have lost sight of the necessity for such constant and steady efforts in the way of political advancement. They seem to have ignored the safe and sound methods of political growth and departed after strange gods in the hope of reaping the fruits of political action without the gradual process of sowing and planting. Four years from now, many of these same individuals will seek to return to their old political moorings with claims for preferment which their present erratic course will render unanticipated. Advancement in politics is a thing of slow growth, based on study and persistent effort within regular party lines. In trying to make a solid basis for political representation it is necessary to follow a comprehensive
to engage the activism of our religious organizations. It would be a distance of racial serving after high general standards and of the capacity to realize such standards, without the blighting effect of white domination determined on lowering the standard of morality necessary to the conduct of a "Y" work among colored men. Let those ministers who have signified their adherence to the higher standards seek to put this project into practical effect. The good people of the community will back them up in such an effort.
DEVELOPING A PEOPLE.
Modern civilisation owes its present development in large measure to the doctrine that the state has rights in the child, as well as the parent. This establishes the right of the state to insist upon compulsory education for every child. This doctrine also implies that the child has a valid claim upon the government for good instruction. The consistency with which the state exercises its right and fulfills its duty in providing educational facilities is the measure of the scale it has attained in civilization.
The development of a group of people is thus started through the state, if the government is true to its duty. If this duty of education is neglected or only partially fulfilled by the state, the people interested must take up the task of providing instruction for their children by individual or collective effort. Equipped with the best education to be acquired under state or private auspices, each succeeding generation must enter upon the pursuit of some occupation as a wage earner in order to sustain his part as an active member of the community.
Those who have attained the greatest degree of technical and professional training would under normal conditions take up the trade or profession for which they were best equipped. But in the case of those of the darker races in America, this does not always follow, as the law of fair competition and the survival of the fastest is frequently broken by the force of race prejudice. This entails a heavier handicap in the natural development of the colored people, in that those best equipped for the callings requiring higher skill and preparation are often at a loss to find an opening. This state of affairs can only be remedied by cooperation and organization within the race itself.
That such a development is possible has been shown by the steps already taken in the starting of banks and insurance companies, schools and colleges, business concerns of various character requiring the services of doctors and lawyers, accountants and bookkeepers, chemists and electricians, carpenters and plumbers, and all the other occupations that contribute to the various necessities of modern civilization. The group of people capable of concentrating their savings into the shape of capital to conduct such enterprises as those have found the road to self-development as a permanent factor in the community, the state and the nation.
The acquisition of education, the pursuit of some useful occupation for a livelihood and the performance of duties of a good citizen in the community together with the obligations of the Christian faith, will perfect the development of any striving people.
The Columbia (S. C.) Light thinks that "if President Harding builds up a new Republican party in this State, he will need new and better blood." That condition is not popular to South Carolina and it was one of the reacons advanced to justify the reorganization of the party in the South.
That the Negro is gaining in educational progress in Texas is shown by the following taken from the Dallas Express:
Figures gathered from 1920 census show that in Texas there are now 102.053 Negroes who are unable to write in English or any other language. Though this figure is large it represents a decided decrease in illiteracy, during the past ten years. The percentage of Negroes in Texas who, ten years ago were illiterate was 24.6. Now it is 17.8 showing a decrease of 6.8. The percentage of children of school age in school has increased from 70.2 to 80 in the same ten-year period.
It is also to be noted that this progress has been made without any organized or special statewide effort to encourage Negro school attendance. The Express calls for a more marked improvement in the percentage of literacy for the next ten years. As it has been found that of the 4,532 persons in Dallas 10 years of age and over who are unable to write in any language, 2,348 were Negroes, this infunction would seem to have a local application.
A VICTORY FOR FREE SCHOOL.
On the 12th of last May five persons volunteered to picket in front of the theatre where the "Birth of a Nation" film was being exhibited and distribute circulars against the Ku Klux Klan. As soon as these picketers began the distribution of their circulates they were arrested by the police. They were taken to the night court and held over on bond to appear later for trial. In the Magistrate's Court they were charged with the violation of an ordinance which reads as follows:
"No person shall throw, cast or distribute or cause to be thrown, cast or distributed, any handbill, circular, card or other advertising matter whatever, in or upon any street or public place, or in a front yard or court yard, or on any stoop, or in the vestibule of any hall of any building, or in a letter box therein; provided that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to prohibit or otherwise regulate the delivery of any such matter by the postal service."
The defendants plead not guilty and stood for trial rather than plead guilty and have the case dismissed.
The case was taken up on appeal to the Court of General Sessions and last week the decision was handed down reversing the conviction in the Magistrate's Court. Judge Alfred Talley who gave the decision said in part:
"The circular which the defendants were distributing bore the announcement that it was published by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the defendants were acting as agents of that Association. The paper which they distributed was entitled, 'Stop the Ku Klux Propaganda in New York,' and was an appeal to the public not to encourage what it was claimed, was an effort to glorify through the medium of a moving picture the activities of an organisation which, it was asserted, had for its primary purpose the stirring up of prejudices and animosities against certain races and religions in this country. It would be a dangerous and an American thing to sustain an interpretation of a city ordinance which would prohibit the free distribution by a body of citizens of a pamphlet setting forth their views against what they believed to be a movement subversive of their rights as citizens."
This is a great victory for the cause of free speech in the City of New York. Liberal and radical organizations and individuals have been prohibited, at the pleasure of the police, from distributing printed matter containing their protests against certain conditions. This attitude on the part of the police became especially pronounced after the censorship regulations ushered in by the war became effective.
The appeal was taken on the point that the primary purpose of the ordinance, which, it was claimed, was violated by the defendants, was to prevent the littering of the streets with commercial advertising such as a merchant or shopkeeper might send out. This point the court upheld.
The result of this legal victory is that hereafter the police will have no authority to arrest persons who are distributing pamphlets or literature in the interest of a cause.
This is a great victory, not only for the persons who were directly involved in the case, but for all liberal and radical bodies in the city of New York.
COMMON SENSE ABOUT THE RAILROADS.
Mr. Henry Ford of Detroit, like most preeminently successful men, is very frequently interviewed. Often Mr. Ford is interviewed about something that he knows a great deal less about than many other men. For that reason he has often made himself something of a national laughing stock by giving his views on things regarding which he was almost completely ignorant. Everybody remembers what a poor showing he made on history and literature when cross-examined in a case in which he sought to recover damages against a great daily newspaper. At that time Mr. Ford, on being asked who was Benedict Arnold, said he thought he was some sort of a writer, mixing him up with Arnold Bennett, the English novelist.
But the things Mr. Ford does know he knows more about than any man in the United States. There is no man in the United States who knows as much about automobile manufacturing as does Mr. Ford. Nor is there any one else who knows as much about efficiency methods in managing a great mechanical plant.
Recently Mr. Ford bought a railroad and he at once set out to make this railroad as efficient as his automobile factories, and it seems that he has succeeded in doing so. While the other railroads of the country seem on the verge of bankruptcy—they are only being held up by the millions which the government is pouring into them—Mr. Ford is raising salaries and reducing rates. Indeed, the government had to step in and prohibit Mr. Ford from reducing his rates any lower.
Mr. Ford has had an opportunity now to study railroading and to concentrate his peculiar powers on railroad problems, and it looks as though he now knows more about practical railroading than any man in the country. In a recent interview Mr. Ford gave an analysis of the trouble that the railroads are having. His main remedies were that the railroads should be railroads and not stock gambling institutions; that the business of a railroad is to give service to those whom it is intended to serve and not to have as its principal object the paving of dividends.
Mr. Ford suggests another remedy. It is that the rolling stock of railroads is entirely too heavy. He says that the engines and cars are four or five times as heavy as they should be. This, it can easily be seen, is an added cost in construction and also in the wear and tear of the road and the road bed. The cars and coaches on the European railroads are tiny compared with those on American railroads.
A third step suggested by Mr. Ford is to cut out idle cars and idle engines.
His last suggestion is "to get rid of lawyers." In speaking of the legal staff of railroads, he said "Most railroads have enough lawyers working for them to run them if they were engaged in useful work."
It would be a great thing for the country if the government could induce Mr. Ford to reform whole railroad system.
THE JAPANESE AS PROPAGANDISTS
A great deal is now being written about the Japanese on account of the approaching Disarmament Conference. A phase of Japanese activity has recently been brought to light which is not generally known. It is the efforts which the Japanese are now putting into propaganda. It is stated that during the Gul League Assembly in Geneva, that city and in fact all Submarine was apparently invaded with Japanese. Japan is still actively involved in the ongoing struggle of all the nations in the world.
and spelling and grammar. This writer says that anyone in Europe where one goes travelling today he is likely to meet an insoluble little Japanese who speaks when he is spoken to and eternally smiles. He is dignified and immaculate. He will discuss any topic that is opened and will end by handing you a pamphlet.
This propaganda that the Japanese are carrying on is threefold. The Japanese are attempting to convince the world that Japan is a pacific country and if war with any nation is brought on Japan will not be the aggressor; that Japan must have outlets for her surplus population which is increasing at such a great rate; and, that the Japanese are a highly civilized people from political, social and intellectual points of view, and that it is not right to exclude them from certain parts of the country. These three points are backed up by arguments and statistics and are bound to have effect upon any reader.
Japan has not spread her propaganda in the United States, but doubtless she has brought a large delegation to the Disarmament Conference and there is little doubt that they have come with the intention of winning the confidence and good-will of the United States. Their efforts are likely to be backed up by the same sort of efforts that the Japanese are now making in Europe.
CENSUS LITERACY FIGURES.
The census figures for 1910 out. These figures show the white Americans is the lowest show that in 1920 only 2 years and upwards were ill 8.7; in 1890 it was 6.2; and these figures are only one of the North. They mean little. For example, the figures give follows:
In the South Atlantic Native born whites is 5.1. The groves in the same states is 25. The percentage of illiteracy for illiteracy for Negroes in the South Central states the perc is 4.1; the percentage of illiteracy is 25.3.
These figures for the South illiteracy percentage for the South is far behind. The most Atlantic states cannot afford of 5.1 given in the census. same states the illiteracy per same may be said of the one. These states are illiterate with of white citizens or black citizens the no way to separate black ign as the two sets of people are states. Black ignorance is just as any other sort of ignorance.
For the white people of that their section is not burden that native born whites have at the same time the illiteracy percentage of 25.2 is abound. be if there were a smallpox ex of Fifth avenue said that the because the bulk of the disease.
The South will not be able until the illiteracy of the South may be able to always but there is no possible Negro ignorance.
A MAYOR ON EXHIBITION
Savannah is one of the three most important cities of Georgia and one the greatest supports on the South coast. Its rank as a business commercial centre was indicated by fact that the Savannah Tri-State position, recently held there, had most extensive exhibition of agricultural products ever shown in the South. I satisfied with the additional exhibits live stock, in the way of ginne a bottle, Mayor Murray Stewart of Vannah proceeded to make an exhibition of himself, through the census of the New York Herald of November 4.
In a letter to the editor of that part giving his views on President Harding Birmingham speech, this unworthy executive of a great city wrote another thing:
I feel that the speech was unfortunate and inappropriate in the South while the President was our guest.
No white Republican party will ever be built up in the South upon such principle. Mr. Harding is making an almost effort to appoint client, high class white men to office in the South and we were all in great hopes he would eliminate Negro question, which has held an all hidebound Democracy for a hundred years. We who live in the South know how to handle the Negro and as long as he is not missed he leaves and keeps his place. The minute you try to put him in a responsible position he misunderstands place.
figures for 1920 regarding literacy. Figures show that the literacy among whites is the lowest in the history of the 1920 only 2 per cent. of the native areas were illiterate. In 1850, the white was 6.2; and in 1910, 4.6. Figures are only significant as they apply. They mean little or nothing in the South, the figures given for the Southern South Atlantic States the percentage of whites is 5.1. The percentage of illiterate states is 25.2. In the East South Atlantic of illiteracy for native whites is 6.4; for Negroes in the same states is 27.9; states the percentage of illiteracy for percentage of illiteracy for Negroes in the states for the Southern states show the shortage for the country as a whole in behind. The native white population cannot afford to boast of the illiteracy in the census. They cannot do so for the illiteracy percentage of the Negroes said of the other groups of the South are illiterate whether it be through us or black citizens. Whether it be black citizens the handicap is just the separate black ignorance from white ignorance of people are living in the same common ignorance is just as harmful to the South of ignorance would be. White people of the South Atlantic region is not burdened with ignorance on whites have reduced their illiteracy the illiteracy of the Negroes still 5.2 is absurd. It is about as reasonable a smallpox epidemic in New York as said that there was no need for the lack of the disease was over on Third Avenue will not be able to make a boast abovely of the Negro population is not able to aggregate the Negro in no possible means by which they are.
EXHIBITION of the three most Georgia and one of the South Atlantic as a business and was indicated by the annual Tri-State Exhibit there, had the position of agricultural strongest Negro bank resources of over $1 billion possesses other banks terprises conducted by cains with X-ray preachers and education tributed a large quota who fought for the idea the World War.
These figures for the Southern states show that although the illiteracy percentage for the country as a whole is very low the South is far behind. The native white population of the South Atlantic states cannot afford to boast of the illiteracy percentage of 5.1 given in the census. They cannot do so because in the same states the illiteracy percentage of the Negroes is 25.2. The same may be said of the other groups of the Southern states. These states are illiterate whether it be through the illiteracy of white citizens or black citizens. Whether it be through white citizens or black citizens the handicap is just the same. There is no way to separate black ignorance from white ignorance as long as the two sets of people are living in the same communities and states. Black ignorance is just as harmful to the Southern states as any other sort of ignorance would be.
For the white people of the South Atlantic states to think that their section is not burdened with ignorance from the fact that native born whites have reduced their illiteracy to 5.1 while at the same time the illiteracy of the Negroes still towers to a percentage of 25.2 is absurd. It is about as reasonable as it would be if there were a smallpox epidemic in New York and the people of Fifth avenue said that there was no need for them to worry because the bulk of the disease was over on Third avenue.
The South will not be able to make a boast about its illiteracy until the illiteracy of the Negro population is also reduced. The South may be able to segregate the Negro in a great many ways but there is no possible means by which they can segregate Negro ignorance.
Why not let us animate these people kindly and family as lawyers and servants, which they are only fit for, and not try to enforce upon a race position they are totally unfit for? By doing this you only hurt them, not help them. Our opposition is that the white man of the United States who games in contact with the Negro will frighten admit that it is unfair to force him into a position that he is totally unfit to all.
If President Harding expressed his speech so help the feeling between the two races he has made a grave mistake. Personally, I do not think the speech will be remembered more than : few days throughout this section, for we of Georgia bound to bring the Negro where he belongs and where he is in the happiest, most happy, the most of the white race.

Mayor Murray Stewart ignores the fact that the Negroes of Savannah, both men and women, were called upon by both sides, to decide on the question of a bond issue for public improvements. In view of these indications of the status that the Negroes of Savannah have achieved, the mayor's expressions can only be viewed as the blissed conclusions of a warped and petty mind. His letter simply puts him on exhibition as the smallest specimen of a city executive that America has yet produced. Savannah should have the sympathy of the entire nation in her affection.
MIXING MORE WHITEWASH.
The news dispatches from Washington last week made it clear that more whitewash is mixing for the benefit of those United States marines charged with responsibility for the killing and inhuman treatment of the natives of Haiti during the occupation. The testimony given before the special Senate investigating committee by Lidut-Col. Alexander S. Williams, who acted as commander of the gendarmes at one time, was of this negative character, concerning the responsibility of the American officers:
"They all showed the greatest friendship and sympathy for the natives. It is difficult for me to believe that any graduate officer would deliberately cause to be killed a native under his control as a prisoner. I do not believe there were any quality of doing so. I have no doubt whatever that many natives were killed by the native personnel of the generation. I had occasion to try a number of them on each change and turn some over for trial by the civil courts."
It is also difficult to believe that the gendarmes would date to kill any of the natives eaten as prisoners, without the approval, either direct or such, of their American officers.
Sussex McCormick, chairman of the committee, under the reaffirmation motion that the education land and district were equal and equal with respect to the timing of school hours, and necessary for the education land, and district.
historic, authorized that unless married law and lifted "it will be impossible to hear the facts." Four Haitians with the fear of incurring the harsh retaliation possible under the existing state of criminal law, so administered by the marines would dare to testify to facts, showing the accretion perpetrated by these same marines. It looks like the Senate committee would rather apply a treatise of whitewash then make it possible to establish the facts.
COLORED COLLEGE ATHLETES.
In discussing the chances of coming University, in the coming back-to-school season, a sports writer in the New York Evening Mail said:
"Columbia lost John Johnson the great Negro forward of the Pine and White team, through graduation last June, and his loss has created a vacancy that will go unfulfilled for a long time.
"Johnson, one of the few good athletes who has ever featured the sport Life of metropolitan colleges, was one of the best forwards ever developed in the intercollegiate league. Had he been provided with the support Dunn, McNichols, from court captain, had last winter, Johnson would have been hailed as one of the greatest basketballers of all time. He was a fine shot from the floor and a dead markman from the foul line. He is studying for the ministry now."
"In common with other chief chaps who have embellished their names across the collegiate competitive horizon, Johnson was a clean liver, an exemplary study and personally popular. Galloway, on the Columbia football team, the type of man, Buck O'Neill, the world of Galloway, and each has never met a finer spelling. Galloway is an unusually good man, although he falls to get the credit due him because he is tremendously modest.
"It is a significant fact and a
that reflects favorably on the
ored race, that the majors of colo-
ored athletes who have tried
stardom's ranks in college have
achieved the heights through al-
n football, an unusually gering
game. With the exception of Ned
Gourdin, of Haward; Johnson of
Columbia and Howard Drexel,
the Southern California University dart-
tory, every other colored crack-
jack we can call to mind made his
name as a grinder plus ultra.
There are two things brought out by this writer that should be gratifying to all numbers of the race. The first is that our college men have won a reputation for clean living, exemplary study and personal popularity. This is a good combination of qualities, not a heavy bag of attainment. The second thing is that the greater number of those who have risen to athletic prominence have chosen the easiest way to such honors. The ability to rise through the stronger struggles of the football field argues possession not only of physical fitness but of grim determination and deep endurance that survives to the end. The college athletes from Foot Ball Lewis to Gourdin, have done their best in building up respect and reputation for the race.
TONING UP NEGRO THEATRE
The growth of the amusement industry among the Negroes of this country has been one of the greatest developments of the past decade. From the small beginning of a few years ago the furnishing of amusement by and for the race now engages the service of thousands of performers, with hundreds of buildings devoted to drama both spirit and on the screen, while the annual invested amounts to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
With the development of the Negro theatre, there has been much encourague the workers for racial progress while at the same time there has also cropped out certain manifestations that need to be corrected. An impartial observer of the growth of the Negro theatre recently made the criticism of good faith, that it needed "coming up". The deduction to be drawn from the remark was that there appear to be a perceptible lowering of the tone of the entertainments afforded, with a tendency to showing "too much road stuff."
Of course such a criticism as this might be made with equal justice of many of the white theatres, where such luxury is frequently indulged in to engage the attention of the public to other city authorities to the problem of the plays presented. Such attention to the taste of the vulgar point of view may seem to the managerial judgment good policy, but for the smaller number who seek persecution that nature, a larger number is polite in disgust. Toning up in the theatre will be good policy for the box office as well as for the performer.
Another detail noted by the case server of the drama from behind the soma was in some cases the degree of familiarity displayed by the management toward the performer, especially those of the female sex. The old maxim about too much taming breeding content is still true. The relations between performer and manager should be kept on safe ground and the advantage of both sides in the course is not adhered to strictly, then can be no discipline maintained and the result will be distractions and despair in both before and behind the stage contain:
If the Negro theatre is to prosper, there must be a provision up of the quality of the production and the maintenance of it and not two intimate relations between the actors and the manager. A problem there is much to discourage.
In The Realm of Music
By Lonnie H. White
Distinguished Authority On Negro Folk Music Is Dued
Mrs. Natalie Curtis Burla of New York, Natalie Author and Musician, Killed in Automobile Accident in France
It is a serious loss that the movement for preservation of folk song has sustained in the death of Natalie Curtis Burtila (Mrs. Paul Burtila, who was killed in an automobile accident in France according to information received in New York November 2nd.
Natalie Curtis made her first folk song researches in the realm of Indian music, and her studies of Indian song and legend covered a wide range.
For twenty years she has applied herself to the folk song of the Negro, not only of America, but of Africa and the West Indies. Her last public appearance was before the World Congress on the history of art held recently at the Sorbonne, Paris, and her address was on "The American Negro's Folk Music." Her last published work, concerning which extensive comment appeared in this department of THE NEW YORK AGE on October 20th, was the volume entitled "Songs and Tales from the Dark Continent" (Schirmer's Press). Work on another volume which was intended to follow personal researches in Africa and the Near East is cut short by her untimely death.
Mrs. Curtis married Paul Berlin, a distinguished painter of the new movement in realism and his work has placed him among the foremost in this modern school. He was in France with his wife.
Mrs. Burlin had been active in all the various movements for the musical development of the Negro and for the preservation of Negro music. Her first book on Negro music was published in 1925 after a period of extensive critical study, under the title of "Negro Folk Songs." This volume comprised much material that had already been published in other forms. In order to get material for this work, Mrs. Burlin spent much time at various places in the South, especially in Virginia and South Carolina. She visited Penn School, St. Helena Island, S. C., and secured material for some of her most notable contributions. Two of these, old Christmas songs, "Mary's Baby," arranged for seven voices, and "Dar's Star in the East," for six voices, were sung at Carnegie Hall in the Musical Art Society of New York, with Frank Damroach conducting, during the Christmas season of 1919.
Mrs. Burlin was a native New Yorker, a daughter of the late DeLafayette Curtis and a niece of George William Curtis. She earned a thorough musical education. She studied under Arthur Friedheim in New York, Busoni in Berlin, Alfred Giraudet in Paris, Wolf in Bonn, and later under Julius Kniese at the "Wagus Shuffle" in Bayreuth.
She was accomplished pianist. She composed some original songs and she wrote and lectured on Indian folk lore and art, but her large powers, her musical range, her highly sensitive hearing and her penetrating and sympathetic intellect were for twenty years past devoted to reducing to an intelligible and interpretative musical notation Negro folk hymns ("Spirituals") in the South and other fields of primitive music.
It is immensively easy for a trained musician with an accurate ear to reproduce the significant notes which make up a Negro melody or that matter any other folk song; but this is only the beginning. Time may alter from bar to bar, a succession of notes, at first coming to be alike, subtly vary; stress, timbre and expressive change note by note. To catch all these, to record them and to follow these swift and sinuous changes call for ear, tying them and the widest musical knowledge.
All these Mrs. Burlin had in amazing measure. She had patience and a keen minetic grasp of the problem.
Her extremely death has severed from human usefulness a world of knowledge and ability in the field of music, especially as to the preservation and development of Negro Folk Music. Particularly as to the exact manner of her death have not as yet been researched in America.

THE SONG LECTURE RECITAL
A special session past one of the
operating features of the free
song series established by

operated on "Folk Song of the
America" by Mrs. Nellie Moore
Miss Richard Hill, pianist and
Miss Minnie Brown of
Miss City, soprano. Not until
November 7th, was it my
nearest these 12 dies.
The session they were scheduled
in the lecture room at the
branch of the New York
Park Library and the room was fairly
at 8:30 p.m. when "Deacon"
Johnson officiating as local
instructor in place of Mrs. Johnson,
operating from a recent severe
included Mrs. Mundy and Miss
as the audience.
Minds gave a brief but illusi-
tated upon the characteristics
of folk song, making three chai-
sion of the music—the aloofi-
gance of the slave creation and the
development. Intelligent ro-
werned in the clear and social
which she explained the var-
ities of the growth of Negro
matter of her discover-
ment with meaty information.
The vocal part of the recital was furnished by Miss Minnie Brown, and she contributed much to the interest and enjoyment of the program. Miss Brown showed to better advantage in the more sophisticated numbers, as the polish and finish of her art gives a culture and artistic atmosphere which is not calculated to formulate the crudness of utterance best suited to the folk-song in its original form. But this lack was atoned for by the sincerity of her interpretation and the depth of feeling expressed. It was unfortunate that in some of her numbers faulty enunciation destroyed somewhat their force which depends to much on clarity of diction.
Before each number Mrs. Mundy epitomized the manner of its inception and its meaning. She played the accompaniments for Mrs. Brown's vocal numbers, and, near the end of the program, gave a brilliant rendition of the Judaic dance from Dutk's in the Bortmann Suite. She had to play this twice before the audience was enthralled. The vocal numbers making up this very enjoyable and entertaining program, in addition to the two piano numbers, included the following compositions:
"AMERICAN SLAVE" — "Great Championing," "Welten," "From in Last," "Nobody knows the trouble I see," "Before I'd be a slave I'd be barked in my grave," "Swing low, sweet charlot," "Little David," "Old Art," and "Bird Away."
MODERN SPIRITUALS — "Go down, House," "The me, O Lord," and "My Lord, what a material!" (all by H. T. Burleigh), and "I'm so glad trouble don't hurt him." (Dutk).

JOHNSON-TAYLOR-JOHNSON
CONCERT TRIO
The Johnson-Taylor Johnson Concert Trio of New York City is a musical organization unique in many respects. In the first place, it does not cater to the class which Krebblief designates apt as the "groundings"—those whose conception of music is limited to an appreciation and enjoyment of the popular rag and jazz. The Trio's purpose is serious and, as Mr. Johnson has said, it is their aim to build up among our people a love for the better class of music. They that mean to develop this purpose is shown by the numbers included in their program.
The two is composed of Mrs. Marie Peake Johnson, dramatic soprano, T. Theodore Taylor, pianist; and George Leon Johnson, lyric tenor. Possess of native talent and ability considerably above the average, these folks have given of their time and effort to earnest and intelligent study in the development of their powers.
Mrs. Johnson, formerly of the Fisk Singers, and of the Williams' Concert Singers, has a voice that possesses many beautiful qualities. It has range, sweetness and color, and she has a keen perception of tone quality and true pitch. She has studied under some of the best voice teachers in the country, and is at present with Petri, a teacher of the Italian bel canto school, with studio in the Metropolitan Opera House.
Mr. Johnson was formerly associated with the Williams' Singers, and since disassociating himself from that organization and its constant demand for ensemble work has devoted his efforts to purely recital work. His voice, almost pure lyric in quality, has sounded and matured and he has acquired finish and polish.
Mr. Taylor is a pianist of serious and devout attitude. He maintains his home in Chicago, where he has a large chorelete, and comes to New York to join his associates for the concert season. He is, I think, a graduate of the Chicago Conservatory, at which institution he gained high honors. In his solo work he displays broadness of conception and clarity of interpretation, with a developed technique which enables him to master the most difficult and intricate compositions with comparative ease. He does the accompanying for the soloists and to this he brings a sympathetic comprehension which gives to the singer the needed coordination and results in a satisfying accompaniment.
The Trio appears in New York City on Thursday evening November 17th. This will be the real beginning of its 1921-22 tour, but the Trio will have already been busy for several weeks appearing in various communities immediately adjacent to New York City, both in New York State and in New Jersey. After their appearance in New York on the 17th, the Trio leaves for the following itinerary:
November 18, Albany, N. Y.; 23, Syracuse; 24, Rochester; 25, Buffalo; 28, Cleveland, Ohio; 29, Akron; 30, Toledo; December 1. Ann Arbor, Mich.; 5, Detroit; 6, Grand Rapids; 7, Battle Creek; 8, Kalamazoo; 12, Chicago, 13, Gary, Ind.

home in Virginia and took up the study of singing, under William Lamb at his Orange studio in the Metropolitan building. She sings also in the choir at Mr. Olive Baptist Church, East Orange under the directorship of her teacher.
Mrs. Chattian opened her program with the Rigolotto recitative and aria, Name, by Verdi. It is questionable as to whether she displayed good judgment in placing in the forefront of her program a number that was not taking its requirements, and yet she sang it in good style so far as tone quality and understanding goes. Unfortunately, however, the tempo at which she took the brightly passages destroys much of the number's effectiveness, giving it almost a dinge-like atmosphere. Care's "Robin Song," the second number, was more satisfactorily done. The third number, je suis Tranta, from Ambreo Thomas "Bignon," showed considerable improvement over a previous rendering which I heard. She used the delightful quality of her voice with splendid abandon, but the very difficult vocalization required, the bravura passages, taking the octaves in a chromatic run, proved a little more than she could handle, at least on this occasion, resulting in several times that are decidedly color as regards paitte.
Songs by Burleigh, Lawson and Massacre were pleasingly rendered and brought her to the closing number, "Thou brilliant bird," from David's opera, "The Pearl of Brazil," which was really the outstanding effort of the evening. This song, disclosed her voice at its best and showed her attention in the realm of coloratura. The alliance, small in number, was enthusiastically appreciative of the singer's efforts and she graciously responded with several encores.
A feature of the evening was the appearance of R. E. Williams, futur, who is of the faculty of the Institute of Musical Art of New York. Mr. Williams, in addition to the obligatee in the Thomas and David arias, played two tune color, one a "Fantastic Pastorale Honegrie" by Dappler. He is an artist and his performance was a delight. It was told me after the recital that Mr. Williams was to leave New York the day following Mrs. Chatman's recital for a concert tour in company with Frieda Hempel, the Metropolitan Opera singer.
Mrs. Cora W. Alexander was the accompanist in her usual very satisfactory manier, and the recital was under the management of W. P. Burrell, Jr. of Newark.
NEW ATHELIC FIELD STARTED AT HAMPTON
(Special to The New York Age.)
Hampton, Va.-Ground has been broken. For the new athletic field of Hampton Institute. Graduates and former students are raising money to construct and equip this up-to-date field under the leadership of the Hampton Alumni Association, founded forty-three years ago. It will be equipped with grandstand, quarter-mile track, 220-yard straight-way, football and baseball fields.
Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, and George J. Davis, Hampton 74, broke ground for the new field. E. L. Dabney, one of Hampton's football stars, loaded the first wrapper. Representatives from the several R. O. T. C. companies shoved cartloads of dirt and cheered the speakers, the athletic field, and the Hampton Alumni Association.
The officers of the stairn in Athletic Field Association are Robert R. Moton, president, Tucker Institute; Don A. Davis, treasurer, Hampton Institute, and Charles H. Williams, secretary and chairman executive committee, Hampton Institute.
Bordentown Blanks Durbar
Bordentown, N. J. - The Bordentown football team rolled up six touchdowns and one safety against the Dunbar A. C. of Easton, Pa., Saturday, October 29th, defeating the visitors by the score of 40-0. Captain Watson of the Bordentown team received a punt from the visitors, raced sixty-five yards and placed the pigskin over the visitors goal.
The Nashville Globe voices its opposition to prevailing strike methods on the following grounds:
We feel that if a man is tired of his job and can better his condition he ought to change and find another job and not try to clog the wheels of industry. Of course ours is but a simple view. Perhaps our horizon is too limited, but it has not been our opinion that the devil boy and the copositors who are dissatisfied and who feel that we ought to pay them five hundred dollars a month, should organize a force and keep our paper from coming out. If they are dissatisfied they might to quit and seek other employment.
That would be too simple a solution for this day of picketing and arbitration and labor board intervention.

Contributes By The Age Editors On Sayings of Other Editors
"Now My Skin Is Like Velvet"
The Philadelphia Tribune recently felt impelled to call a halt on "fake business enterprises," which have been started in that city. It said:
Least among those who have preyed upon those willing to support race enterprises, have been many unscrupulous ministers of the gospel, who not satisfied with the splendid salaries paid them, and in many cases, altogether too large for, the services they render, have unwisely put their hands into the pockets of their own congregation to extract the last dollar found there to be used in the promotion of wild cat schemes which they know will never return a peony to those from whom they have wrested the money.
Many of these fake concepts are now lottering, and within the neat fortnight will have crumbled beyond restoration, carrying with them, as they will, the people's money entrusted to their care, in good faith.
New York has not been exempt from the operations of such faithless shepards, the operations of such faithless shepherds who aided in fleeing their flocks, the light of day.
In developing the thought, that the Negro race, is bodily free, but economically slaves, the Philadelphia American says:
We have two colored banking institutions in Philadelphia with a colored population of at least 175,000. It has been conservatively estimated that 15,000 inhabitants can easily support a bank. Taking this as a basis, we are far behind. Why is it that we have no more or larger banking institutions in Philadelphia? The answer is perfectly plain. We have not shown a disposition to support such enterprises
only very late. There is a crying necessity for a. Trust Company, a National and State Bank right here in Philadelphia, organized and managed by the colored people. We venture to say that our deposits in the various banks in Philadelphia are in excess of those mentioned for Chicago and it brings no power to use it to the economic benefit of the race. Thousands of colored people have deposits in many of the banks of Philadelphia and few, we venture to say, could tell you the name of the president or cashier of the bank in which they have entrusted their money. Few if any of those banks will discount a note for their colored depositors or advance any money to help him out in business or enterprises, nor will they place a mortgage on his home. There are one or two of such institutions that have placed small mortgages on colored churches with large congregations; but the reasons for such acts is not far to seek. It would certainly seem that we should do a little thinking and seek relief from this form of starvation and slavery that makes the poor poorer and the rich tricker.
Similar conditions to those above described prevail in other cities, with sufficient Negro populations to warrant the establishment of banking institutions. The utilization of the dormant capital of the race to the best advantage is a pressing problem.
Speaking of the uphill struggle that confronts the colored lawyer in building up a successful practice, the San Antonio Sentinel says:
The colored lawyer of today as a rule has graduated from a reputable law school, opens a modern office, supplies himself as soon as possible with a good set of looks, and prepares to serve his people. At the bar he acquires himself with credit. The reason that so many
South Carolina operated nine summer schools this summer for colored teachers, with an attendance of between 1,400 and 1,500.
of his ace ally stepfather him is for the most part psychological—it has the lagrangean trait that becomes the jury is of another batch, and all the legal matrimony is also in their hands that the colored lawyer must needs experience short short. Notwithstanding that, man signal victories are challenged to the credit of the colored lawyer, the abolition. Therules continue to multiply, so that it is a long uphill climb. The general public hasn't been as loyal to the lawyer as to men in other lines of endeavor for whereas the preacher is worshipped without stint, is regarded with antleristics, new suits and automobiles, and the teacher and the doctor are boosted generously, the legal man must face doubt and privation. He deserves to come into his own, and the people of his race must patronize him, or at least give him a trial.
The growth of business enterprises and corporations has helped largely of late years to furnish a new field for the lawyers of the race, which they seem to have filled acceptably to their clients.
The Kansas City Coll recently gave an instance of what it styled "Fugitive Slave Law Tactics" in Missouri. The case was a decision by Judge J. E. Porterfield on a writ of habeus corpus upon application of W. E. Gang of Sagittarius, Ohio, giving him custody of Geraldine

The testimony in the hearing cited that Miss Hammett, would be born old, legal age. October 21, 1851, is the possessor of valuable objects and also owns several valuable objects and a valuable garage building. Two weeks ago, Miss Her was taken from a hospital in Sapulpa and Oklahoma. Nebraska, and guardian thereafter the mother left in peace her, found her and brought her to Kansas City. Here she has been living in the home of Mrs. Millie of 1404 Elk Avenue. Guardian his case to obtain possession of her as to have her in Sapulpa on her birthday, that being the time when the guardian was due to make an account of her property, give it to her and receive his receipt for it. He was guarded guardian for her by the prosecution July 10, 1916.
It was silted that Mine Hammond had spent two years being educated at Jefferson City at Lincoln Institute, and pawl's own school; for the higher education of Negroes. Mr. Gage in testimony admitted he had only two years of schooling to his credit. The Judge Porterfield in effect puts the age of approval by Missouri's courts in the intelligent young colored women's property going into the hands of a relictively unchoked white man. Just as did the Oklahoma court in 1916.
The whole question at issue involves the right of the Oklahoma courts to place the property and the person of minor Negro children in the hands of others - than their relatives, generally white men who seek to profit by abusing their trust.
THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS
Revival of Cake Walk By "Shuffle Along" Artists
(By Lucien H. White) The double attraction presented to New York pleasure lovers in the combination of a revival of the old-fashioned cake walk and music by the "Shuffle Along" orchestra proved so potent that New Star Casino, 107th street, near Lexington avenue, was crowded to the doors on Sunday night, November 6th. Then, in addition to these drawing cards, the entertainment was being presented by Miller & Lyles and Sissle & Blake, who are characterized as "The Boys Who Put Over the Broadway Sensation," (the "Shuffle Along" performance).
Beginning at 10 o'clock a program of rare excellence was given. An array of acts from the "Big Time" held the mammoth audience in breathless thrall for nearly two hours. The full "Shuffle Along" orchestra, under the baton of Eubie Blake, who is responsible for the music used in the play, all of which has become New York rage, was seated upon the stage. A half-dozen rows of chairs had been placed on the four sides of the dance floor, leaving a quadrangular space in the centre in which the various acts were given.
Promptly at 10 o'clock Mr. Blake swung his baton and the orchestra crashed into the opening bags of the "Shuffle Along" overture, and the audience settled back with a prescience of the enjoyment to come. Boxes that ordinarily seated eight persons were occupied by from ten to fourteen, and every box in the balcony, every log in the mezzanine, every chair on the dance floor, and all the space in the rear of the hall usually occupied by small tables for serving, was jammed with the expectant crowd.
The program, received with enthusiastic approval, included the troop of Ishii Japs, Little Cieo—the Baby Vamp, Foley & Sparkton, Davis & Williams, Lilian & Co., little Florence Parham, and a troop of Arabs—the Lightning Six (a misnomer, as there were eight in the group). These various performers gave an exhibition seldom seen in a single performance. From the entrance of the Japs until the last whirl of the Arabs there was not a dull moment.
Davis & Williams are members of the "Shuffle Along" company and they gave a snappy exhibition of the dancing ability which has made them strong favorites at the 63rd Street Theatre. Little Florence Patham, formerly with the Nora Bayes act, and who was one of the features of the late "Put and Take" company at Town Hall, sang in her inimitable way three songs which gained her added favor. The Ishii Japs are unusual and Little Cleo, the Baby Vamp, won instant admiration. Foley & Sparkton gave an exhibition of hand balancing that stirred the audience, and the act of Eliman & Co. seemed to defy the laws of gravitation in their balancing of heavy chairs, tables, couches, and finally all of these objects at one time, on the point of chin and on the forehead, at the same time climbing up, over and down a high ladder. The Arabs gave a breath-taking act of tumbling and whirling, backward, forward, sideways, concluding with the building of a pyramill in which one man supported the bodies of his seven companions, who stood on his head, his shoulders, and swung onto his body at various points.
At twelve o'clock, the cake walk was begun, and for a half-hour some dozen or more couples girated and pranced about the floor in such bewildering grace and accuracy of step as to make the selecting of the winners a task of no mean proportions. At the end a couple of old-timers, the well-known Mine, Robinson and her husband, gave an exhibition of the cake walk as it was in the beginning, and their performance was given added interest by an unusually fine performance of toe dancing by a little girl who accompanied them.
Following the cake walk, the floor was cleared. In addition to the "Shuffle Along" orchestra, the promoters had engaged also the symphony dance orchestra of the New Amsterdam Musical Association, under directorship of "Allie" Ross, and this deservedly popular conductor and his orchestra alternated with Enbie Burke's musicians in dispensing dance music for the lovers of terpsichore. The light fantastic toe was swung in joyous abandon until after four o'clock in the morning of Monday.
The popular "Captain" Henry Wilson and Walter Hunter were in charge of the dancing, while Edward Johnson, known professionally as "Black Carl," was in charge of affairs at the door.
"Shuffle Along" Still'Going Strong At 63rdSt. Music Hall
"Shuffle Along," the all-Negro Musical Melange, enters upon its twenty-sixth big week at the 63rd Street Music Hall on Monday night. This is the record run for a colored attraction. With its humorous book and scintillating tunes "Shuffle Along" is attracting capacity audiences at every performance and present business points to a long and prosperous run at the uptown playhouse. The same big cast remains intact, including Miller and Lyles, authors of the book, and Sissle and Blake, composers of the lyrics and music.
Lottie Gee, Florence Mills, Davis and Williams, Mattie Wilkes, Adelaide Hall, Richard Cooper, Snippy Mason, Arthur Porter, James Woodson, and the Four Harmony Kings make up the large cast.
New costumes have been added to "Shuffle Along" and each week will see the girls dressed in the latest fashions. The usual Wednesday midnight performances will be given at 11.45. Matinees on Saturday. Evenings at 8.20.
LAFAYETTE THEATRE
ures will include Douglas Fairbanks in his latest picture, "The Three Musketeers," which is completing a run of two months on Broadway this week.
LAFAYETTE THEATRE
The principal attraction at the Lafayette theatre this week is one of the season's best pictures, "No Woman Know" from the famous story by Eda Ferber. It is the story of the struggles and triumph of a woman in the business world. Famille Brandeis, the heroine, works out her destiny along original lines, in spite of the interference of a mail-order king and the advent of a clean cut youth from the old home town. But somewhere in the cross currents flows springs up and caps the situation. This picture is having its first Harper showings at the Lafayette, and is still young going. There is also an
AT ROOSEVELT THEATRE
"Always the best" is the motto at the Roosevelt Theatre. Only the "best feature pictures are shown there, and these are shown before they reach any other, twenty-cast homes in Harlem. The new management of that theatre is making a sincere effort to make the Roosevelt the best picture theatre in this section of the city. U. G. Chambers, the well known wright, has been second to organise or the theatre and is gratefully grateful.

Spartan Braves Beat Dunbars
HILTON SLOCUM
(By William E. Clark)
The Spartan Braves formally ushered in the basketball season in Harlem on Election night, November 5th, by scalping the Dunibar P. C. C. five of New Jersey before a large audience at Manhattan Casino, by a score of 40-17. For some reason, the visiting team was not at its best, and missed a number of easy shots, as well as nine out of sixteen fouls. However, the new combination of Slocum and Wallace in forward, Sessoms in center, and Stewart and Gumbis in guard showed up exceptionally well for the Spartans, and gives promise of being unbeatable this season.
The New Jersey team shot only six goals during the game to their opponents' nineteen. Sessoms led in the number of goals for the home team, with eight to his credit; Wallace was second with seven goals. Slocum shot eight out of eleven fouls for his team, and also didgod work in forward. Farrar and Contee did the best work for their team.
An unnecessary argument marred the last half of the game. When manager Douglas attempted to substitute Frank Forbes for Gumbs, the Dunbar manager objected on the grounds that the M. B. A: was going to bar Forbes because he was a professional baseball player. As no action has been taken by the basketball association against any players, the Spartans claimed the right to But in deference to the Dunbars as a visiting team, Forbes was kept out of the game, and Capers substituted.
For the last few minutes of the game, the entire lineup of the Spartans was changed, and several of the Hornets were given a chance. The final score was 46-17.

There are so many excellences in the new Goldwyn picture, "Dangerous Curve Mead!" which opened at the Lincoln Theatre Thursday, that it is difficult for the reviewer to point out one that stands out above another. Perhaps the author, Rupert Hughes, deserves first thanks for writing an original story that is neither a rehash of old plot ideas nor a copy of any of his immutable short stories or novels. He has taken a few years of the life of a young married couple and let us into the secrets of their differences, their joys and their final adjustments to each other's temperament.
THE SEASON'S SENSATION BAND CONTEST PHILADELPHIA-vs-NEW YORK Happy Rhone, and His Versatile Orchestra 60 Musicians
It was a difficult story to do simply and sincerely, yet the Goldwyn company gathered one of the most competent casts that ever made a picture live on the screen. The roles of the young wife and the young husband are remarkably played by Helene Chadwick and Richard Dix, the latter a veritable "find."

Lincoln University, Pa.—With weather conditions almost ideal and before the rain and most representative rainfall, the gathered on Rendall and Sparks in "Lincoln Lions" swept the Hartman "Heavy Weights" up and down, winning by the score of 14. Lincoln Laws won the toast, and the west goal. Hampion scored with the wind at the back of the Hartman team.
It was evident after the first few minutes that Lincoln was in Hampton, for the back field in Brown and Parr penetrated in Hampton line for consistent shots and Johnson made severer shots and 10-yards and Parr continued in making short ball. The ball was soon in Hampton and the line plays, end to end forward passes the ball was in Hampton's three yard line, and true to form, the Lincoln kicked to fumble. Hampton received the ball and kicked out. Lincoln immediately brought the ball back to line again fumbling. Hampton kicked to her own 25-yard line, then called for a fair catch. A Hampton man tackled him and the ball brought the ball to Hampton's back. Brown and Johnson advanced to line to Hampton's goal line, fumble prevented them from
The quarter ended with the ball at the point. At the beginning of the period, captain Laws went in and in his characteristic manner, carried the ball to touch down. Crudup Laws crudup kicked off for Hampton brought the ball. Hampton unable to make any gain, the line. Hampton kicked the ball into Hampton where it was played for quarter.

Williams kicked off for Lincoln in the second half and Hampton again attempted to penetrate Lincoln's line, but without success. On an exchange of kicks Lincoln again brought the ball into Hampton's territory, and on several long runs by Laws, Johnson and Parr, and a long forward pass from McClean to Skinker, the ball was brought to Hampton's one yard line. Here Hampton held for two downs; on the third down, however, Johnson placed the ball a scant two inches over the goal. During the rest of the game Hampton made fine attempts to advance the ball but was unsuccessful, her quarterback showing poor judgment in attempting to make plays through the center, where Lincoln is particularly strong. Towards the close of the game McClean, threw a forward pass for 35 yards to Skinker, who was standing on Hampton's 2-yard line, but dropped the ball. The game closed with the ball in Hampton's territory.
Bellinger played center for the first time, and made a good showing against Red Dabney, who is perhaps one of the best and most aggressive centers playing today. Dabney played all over the field and was deadly in breaking through the tackling. Williams and Green played strong at guard. Coston and Green put up a fine game at tackler. Woods in particular being very aggressive in breaking up the Hampton plays. Crudup played a fine defensive game and Skinker not only was deadly in his tackling, but did well on the receiving end for forward passes. McClean showed good judgment in running the team. Near the end of the game Frank Wilson, was substituted for Laws. From the spectator's viewpoint, the game was enjoyable. There was a complete absence of roughness and wrangling, and the frequent fumbling by both sides simply added to the excitement of the game. The officials were competent and impartial, and both coach Shelburn and coach Gideon Smith were loud in their praise of the officials and of the good spirit of the opposing teams.
The second half contained many thrills but no scores until the fourth quarter when Howard made a 45 yard run off end with an exhibition of perfect interference. After two successive gains of 6 yards each, the ball was sent across for Howard's third touchdown. Goal was again kicked. With about three minutes in which to play Howard made another attempt to score when a 20 yard gallop brought the ball within striking distance of Shaw's goal. Shaw's line belt for two downs. On the third down a short forward pass was completed bringing the ball to the field, from which place a drop kick was registered from the 20 yard line for a field goal, giving Howard her final score for the game.
Shaw was by far the strongest aggregation to visit Howard this season, and the account of the game might have read differently were it not for Howard's defensive teamwork. Howard's victory over Shaw leaves her still unscored upon for the season. It was, the Blue and Whites 5th game and the last to be played at home.
their eyes in amazement. Brown, McLean and Johnson were responsible for the touchdown made by Lincoln; Scott made Wilberforce's only score.
The team was well pleased with the trip and is unstinted in its praise of the treatment they received at Wilberforce. In 1922 the two teams will play in Philadelphia.
On the way out west the second team stopped off at Harrisburg and trimmed the strong Harrisburg "Y" team by 14-7.
THE NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1901.
WEE WEE-BARTON WINS
FROM TERRY MITCHELL
At the 15th Regiment Armory on Friday night, November 4th, Wee Wee Barton won an easy victory over Italian Terry Mitchel, and several times during the fight had him on the verge of a knock out. In the first round Mitchel was knocked three times, and was saved by the bell from being counted out. For the next three or four rounds, he saved himself from being knocked out by holding on and by infighting. His weight soon weared Barton, and although Wee Wee administered severe punishment to the face and body of the big Italian, he was unable to knock him out. In the last round, however, a hard blow to the stomach caused Mitchel to quit, claiming that he had been hit low. After examination by the doctor, the bont was awarded to Barton, as no evidence of a foul was to be found. Barton weighed 137 pounds, and Mitchell's weight was announced as 140 pounds, although he appeared to be at least ten pounds heavier.
The semi-final contest between Young Jack Johnson of the 15th and Sailor Bannann of the Naval Militia was a slashing fight from start to finish. Johnson led the fight, but was unable to hit as effective blows as his opponent. The contest went the full ten rounds, and the decision of the referee, Jesse Shipp, Jr., in calling the fight a draw (after the judges had disagreed) was well received by those present.
The preliminary bouts were all good fight, as may be seen by the fact that each was declared a draw by the judges. The first of these bouts was between Jimmie Carter of the 102nd Medical Recruit and Kid Jackson of the 15th, with both fighters weighing 125 pounds. The next contest was between like Booker and Kid Yates, both of the 15th; and the last preliminary bout was between Ralph Horton of the 15th and Roy Taylor of the Naval Militia. These two fighters have met twice recently, and each time the fight has resulted in a draw. They will probably be matched to fight in a semi-final or final contest at the 15th Armory in the near future, and this bout will be well worth seeing.

MASKED DALL AND CARNIVAL
The mask ball and carnival given by the barbers of Harlem at Manhattan Casino on Halloween night, October 31, proved to be a big success, despite the fact that several other parties and social affairs were also given on that night. Doc Rogers, who managed the affair, is due much credit for making it successful despite a large number of handicaps. He was actively assisted by the "Three Joymakers," Gene Rhodes, Mr. Savior and Mr. Boyd. A number of members of the "Shuffle Along" company were present, and the dancing with Gus Craigh's orchestra intriguing the music, was enjoyed by all present. Mr. Rogers, with the "Three Joymakers," is again planning another good entertainment for Harlem of which an announcement will be made in the near future.

Editor of The New York Age:
"President Harding's recent address at Birmingham has aroused such widespread interest at this time in the solution of the Negro problem, that I take the liberty, as a friend of some years' olding of Linda University, one of our newest institutions in the South, of asking the allowed to call to the attention of your readers, a movement in that direction.

nace". And again, "Every consideration, it is務求 to see, brings us back as hard to answer question of education". The whole history of Atlanta University is based on just this idea. The fact is that Leonard Aso Ware, w. Yale man and his wife, with the help of the American Missionary Society, and the Freedom's Bureau, founded Atlanta. University. Today it is estimated that there are 50,000 colored pupils in primary, grammatical, industrial, agricultural and secondary schools, who are being taught by the President Harding said. "The time has passed when this problem is particularly your (the South's) problem. More and more it is being the problem of the North. The World war brought us to full recognition that the race problem is national rather than merely national. It is because we intercepted that race, this that we are seeking the cooperation of the North in the work of the University.
"On November 22nd, at Carnegie Hall, a group of 200 will present a program, 'The Open Door,' which shows graphically, by the singing of Negro plantation melodies and spirituals, dancing, chorus and pantoume what the history of the Negro face has been, what has been its development to the present day, what are its aspirations for the future?"

Bishop Burch Memorial Church,
On Sunday, November 6th the R. B.
M. C., held its third service at 80
West 130th street. The Rev. G.
Coghan of Jamaica, B. L. preached a
sermon appealing sermon, a rather
helpful service that is a strictly
doctrinal, oration. He spoke chiefly
on the Stewardship o, man and his
responsibility to God, first; for himself
and next to those entrusted with the
care of children. Very often, he
continued, the children were left up
entirely to the mother. She becomes a
veritable "houseband" instead of her
husband. He also brought home to the
hearts the hearers, the responsible
for the care of God, their accountability
for their stewardship, their need of
prayer with a keen sense of fervor
and a depth of realism.
A characteristic feature of the service
is the indescribable atmosphere that
permeates the peace. Charity and
Christian fervor is there; a solemnity
born of the cause of their assembly
stems omnipresent, expressing so ex-
cellent love for their unshameful
our hearts, christian love, and
breathes the spirit of "common human
understanding."
The Sunday School is over two hundred strong, and continues to increase in every way. Its code of instruction is unusual, and intensely interesting.
