Of the eighteen men composing the original committee of management of the West 135th street branch Y. M. C. A., of which Thomas E. Taylor is executive secretary, only eight are now serving. The ten men who are not now serving on the committee resigned because they refused to be used as "rubber stamps" by the City Board of Directors, the white organization in control of all branch Y. M. C. A., which body ignored and treated with contempt recommendations and actions which had been taken by the 135th street committee of management. Some of the most prominent race men in New York were in this group which asserted its self-respect, the list including a former member of the Board of Aldermen, a former member of the New York City Board of Education, pastors of several of the city's largest prominent churches, and several professional and business men. Among the members were the chairman, recording secretary, and transcriber of the local committee. The assurance of their connection with the 135th street branch after years of service, some of the men having been associated in the founding of the work, was brought about because they were not willing to countenance and condone alleged indictments committed by the executive secretary, Thomas E. Taylor, in connection with Mrs. Alice Couley, the young woman in the "Y" building as private secretary to the executive. The men who resigned were the chairman, Dr. Engen P. Roberts; the recording secretary, Walter E. Handy; the transcriber, former Alberton Charles H. Roberts; Mr. Steve William P. Wayne of the Oldbury Bath Church; William B. McKinney of the Market M. C. A., the Hyder of W. Juston Presbyterian Church; J. W. Brown of Mother A. M. F. Zion Church; Dr. Jonas Emmanuel, and Dr. Benjamin T. Withers. The names of the eight men who continued as members of the committee included two, the Rev. Richard Manuel Bolden and Counsellor E. A. Johnson, who were reported to have voted with the ten who resigned in asking for Taylor's resignation. The others are Rev. H. C. Bishop, John E. Naill, A. T. Anderson, J. A. Ander- Alleged Inflocrotein the Cause Investigation into this matter covered a considerable period of time, and brought out the fact that Taylor was constantly in associating with the young woman, outside of other hours escorting her to various places, and being seen, it is alleged, departing from her apartment at unusually late hours. Both Taylor and Mrs. Conley were married, and both were living apart from their mates. The executive secretary's wife and daughter were living then, as soon, in the Harlem section. Although Taylor disclaimed wrongdoing, the local committee of management took the position that such actions as were admitted by Taylor were indiscreet and impaired his usefulness as a Y. M. C. A. secretary. By a majority vote of the committee Taylor was requested to hand in his resignation from the secretaryship of the 18th street branch, but Taylor defied the local committee and was upheld by the City Board, although it was understood that Waller T. Deck general secretary of the City Board had assured the local body that its action in this matter would be accepted. Because of this repudiation of their action and limiting of their power and because Wm. H. Sage, the City's official attorney, declared that the local committee had no pliable power and that control of the branch was placed absolutely in the general board, which appoints the local board and accepts the secretary and that Taylor would not be removed from office when the majority members refused longer to serve where they were considered merely as figure-bearer. The men who resigned were the chairman, Dr. Eugene P. Roberts; the recording secretary, Wylie E. Handy; the transcriber, former Alberton Charles H. Roberts; the Sewn William P. Hayes of the Oldest Baptist Church; William M. Carter of St. Marke M. E. Church; and Hyder of W. Justin Presbyterian Church; J. W. Brown of Mother A. M. F. Zion Church; Dr. Jonas Emanuel, and Dr. Benjamin T. Withers. The names of the eight men who continued as members of the committee, included two, the Rev. Richard Manuel Bolden and Counsellor E. A. Johnson, who were reported to have voted with the ten who resigned in asking for Taylor's resignation. The others are Rev. H. C. Bishop, John E. Nail, A. T. Anderson, J. A. Anderson, H. C. Parker and A. S. Newman. The last named is the only white member of the local committee, being placed there as a representative of the City Board of Directors. A well-authenticated report is to the effect that while these men have stood by loyalty by Secretary Taylor, and have enabled him to successfully defy public sentiment, the fact contains that they have not all of them enjoyed the entire good will and respect of the local "Y" official, in fact it is declared by some who affair, knowledge on the subject that if certain of the faithful eight had been able to overhear merit criticisms and condemnations by slurring incendo made by the man they were so realistically protecting and upholding, they would be inclined to agree with Shakespeare's definition of ingratitude. Criticized His Supporters? Reference was made to an occurrence sometime previous to the affair which led to the committee upheaval, and which brought about the removal of Counselor E. A. Johnson as treasurer, and the election of Dr. Clas H. Hewlett in his stead. It was reported as an interesting fact that, although Rev. Hutchings C. Bishoy, rector of St. Philips Church, was a member of the local committee of management, that he served for a period of some eighteen months without being a member of the Y. M. C. A. In this connection, it is allowed that Secretary Taylor referred to the roccer as so much "dead wood"? presumably because it is said he was not very competent in attendance on committee most The image provided is too blurry and pixelated to accurately recognize any text or graphics.

The letter gives some additional details of the journey amplifying the story told in the letter published in last week's issue of this paper, especially emphasizing the fact notwithstanding six days of very heavy seas enroute to Liverpool to Monrovia, she did not miss a single reel. The first letter was, written from Freetown, Sierra Leone, and this last letter tells that she preached her first sermon on African soil as the A. M. E. Church or Freetown, Rev. Steady, pastor. Continuing, Mrs. Randolph writes: "On February 1st we reached Monrovia, anchoring fully three miles out. Ten Kroonmen rowed to shore in just one hour. There is the great problem of the Christian World, a problem of which I hope to be prepared to speak on my return home. I am in good health, but struggling with this intense heat. On Sunday, February 5th, I addressed the Kroonmen people through an interpreter in the morning, and in the evening spoke to a very large crowd in the A. M. E. Church, Monrovia. "I am visiting several points in Liberia, and hope in about two or three weeks to go to the Cold Coast. It is extremely hard for an American Negro to get a permit to visit British West Africa.

WORK SOOK TO BEGIN ON PUBLIC SCHOOL 173 The school children of Harlem are to have a five-story new elementary school building. It will be known as P.S. 139, and is to be situated on the south side of West 140th street, 250 feet east of Seventh avenue. This matter was decided at a meeting of the Board of Education held on Wednesday afternoon, March 15th, in the Board room at 90th street and Park avenue, when the Committee on Buildings and Sites offered a resolution for the plans, specifications and approximate cost of the building. Another resolution was also offered that the Board of Estimate and Appointment approve the plans and specifications and approximate cost of $642,000 for the general construction of a fire-proof building of a permanent character at the greatest possible date so that the word may be advertised. The estimate must cost of the building will be $900,000. This building is free from No. 46 in the 1971 billboard. The Board of Imperial institutions recommend that one-half of the building be used for a junior high school department for boys and one-half for the middle grade boys and girls from kindergarten to G.S. inclusion.

OF SONS N. C. John H. Dicherson, of 150 Wykoff street, Brooklyn, was elected president of the Society of the Sons of North Carolina on Friday night, March 17th, after a hotly contested campaign. Mr. Dicherson has been a member of that "The movement for better relationships between the two is moving much more rapidly in the South than here in North" declared Dr. Robert R. Moton, successor to the late J. Booker T. Washington, as principal of the Tuskegee Normal Industrial Institute, in addressing the Department of Social Service Administration of the University of Chicago, recently. Morgon, Co., Near Tell Of Mire. Brynne's Medical School Morgon, County of Sussex, and Liver of Sussex, with the Morgon, County of Sussex, and Liver of Sussex, with the Morgon, County of Sussex, and Liver of Sussex, with the Dr. Moon pointed out the reasons for this declaration: referred to the interracial movement in the South, especially to the part the white women were taking in the movement, and also to the loyalty, bravery and patriotism shown by the Negro in the great World War. Among other things he said: Inter-racial Movement "You who are living here in the North will perhaps be surprised to know that the movement for better relationships between the pages is moving farther and farther. The development of better relationships between white people and Negroes. The Negro population was small and the increase from year to year was gradual. There existed harmonious relationships and something of an understanding between the two groups. In the past few years, however, a changed condition has been brought about. The migration of Negroes from the South which caused a more or less concentration of Negroes in many centers of the North, is in a large way responsible for this change of condition. This movement brought into our minds a new group of Negroes unacustomed to many of the advantages offered to them in the North. There was no understanding between this group and the white people of this section—and I might add, there was little understanding between this group and the Negroes of the North—and many instances of friction between the races has been the result. New Problem injected. Notwithstanding the fact that this problem has been injected into the life of this section there has been no widespread movement for the development of better relationships between the races. Do not misunderstand me; I am not advocating a movement which would result in the curtailing of the rights of Negroes in the North such as behemoth segregation and disfranchisement. I want to see my race enjoy, every privilege and right, that is accorded to every other group of American citizens. I do, however, believe that a movement in accord with the needs and traditions of this section should be developed whereby the white people might learn more about the home life of the Negro, the thought of the Negro, the cagerness of Negroes to work for the development of this sect; about the progress of your black neighbors along economic, educational and social lines, and to teach those who have recently come into your mind the danger in which the new advantages accorded them might be used most profitfully for all concerned. Such a movement, friend to the needs of the section, would need to develop a spirit of sympathetic understanding between the races which would treat friction and mean neither endemic development. Since 1999 there have been in the Illinois a steady growth of the lower- mountain investment led by Southern Wright nect. inter-racial committees have been formed in more than 800 counties of South. These committees, formed colored and white men, meet separately and together, and formulate plans which the Negro might get justice the courts, better educational chances and other rights of citizenship are rightly his but which have purposes in some places been granted. Then, in a quiet but interesting committee, are working to show a point of great importance. "One of the most significant determining and therefore important aspects of this movement is the vigorous way the leading women of the South have endured this movement. They have taken a cided stand and have demanded justice and justice for Negro people, and childhood; have denied lynching and all forms of injustice; have pledged themselves to accept respect for womanhood regardless of color. Justice for Colored Man "In order to save, as it were, the souls of our great nation, it is necessary that the colored man should have justice. This nation should not lay the part the Negro played in our corner of our country in the West War. Over two million black men in the United States, the West Indies, Africa were used in the World. By the Allies as combat troops, labor battalions and other divisions. Without the aid of these black men dare say the Allies would not have the war. It was the United Southern troops who stopped the great German army in the battle of the Marne. "Not only were the Negroes by first line trenches at the close of war, but their record through entire war is worthy of the highest mendation. They were the one group that was one hundred per cent. They were the one group that willingly responded to the draft and furnished the largest proportionate number of draftsmen. 74 per cent. of the having been accepted as against 61 per cent. of the "The loyalty of the Negro is merely indicated by his record soldier, but likewise in the matter which he supported the money do to finance the war. It is contemptible over two hundred and twenty-five lion dollars was contributed by grocers. Their contributions ranged one hundred thousand dollars by a thirty Negro farmer of Louisiana to fifteen cents, the entire wealth of no 39-year-old Negro Greenville, Alabama. They gave it their money, their food, their all the principles of democracy might make able and that the Americans would be in truth an emblem of faith and an equal opportunity to work in black. to provide positions to her arrest in New York, and she immediately acted in New York, and had been involved in collisions, especially in Philadelphia, and was published as a result of her arrest. — but when confronted with an exposition of her fraudulent acts, Mrs. Braxton declared to the people who had been generated that the opposition was the desire of Southern people to keep the poor Negro people in ignorant. She declared, "I have some colored people objected to the plan of training colored girls and good servants for the white folks. The kind of argument, was evidently useful for the time being, for there was no curtainment of the woman's activity in behalf of her mythical imperial school in Macon, Ga. That then her arrest in Newburgh, and upon being released on bail, she informed the Library Club of Newark, through her attorney, Harold Simond, that she would furnish a detailed statement of requests and expenditures to its officers. In the meantime Tau Ack had written several well-known citizens of Macon, detailing some of the foregoing incidents, and making for definite information as to the status of the Macon Normal and Industrial Institute, which was given as the title of the federal institution for which Mrs. Braxton was collecting money. Of the criminal replies received, from both collisions and white citizens of Macon, one from the Rev. William E. Holmes, president of the Central City College, relied that, not only did Mrs. Braxton an in school in Macon, but that theATIVE project had been long since completed, and that the white men forcibly serving as a board of trustees had washed their hands of the woman. Projected School Abolished An interesting fact, in connection with Professor Holmes letter, is a letter which he received from F. Roger Milly, general secretary of the Macon Chamber of Commerce, suggesting that the money and land, left in hands of the board of trustees of the defunct school, might be transferred to Central City College, as it had been "given for the education of Negro youth." Mr. Miller's letter is as follows: "The Macon Normal and Industrial Institute, promoted by Louise Braxton, has been abolished, leaving in the hands of the trustees a tract of land and some six or eight hundred dollars. It might be possible for you to arrange a transfer to your institution, as the money and property were given for the education of Negro youth. I would suggest that you confer with W. Anderson, J. B. Riley and J. K. Johnson." The three men to whom Professor Holmes was referred are among the most prominent white business men in the city of Macon. The letter received by the editor of Titts Ack from Professor Holmes, is as follows: "Mr. Fred R. Moore, 'Editor The New York Ack, 'New York City, "My dear sir I take pleasure in according to your request for information concerning Mrs. Loane Braston's work in this city. Sometimes since, I am advised she undertook to purchase, a small lot in Bellevue, a suburb of Montreal, and a plumbing company never finished passing for it, and removed to Greenville, S.C., where she claims, under a board of trustees, she is conducting a school. Board Members Quit Previous to this venture, she succeeded in getting a number of leading white men here to serve her in the capacity of a board of trustees; and enter it, for a short while, taught what she called an industrial school, but becoming dissatisfied with its conduct and general management, the white men, and learning of her claims. She also doing great things here, wrote to a number of eastern cities to that effect. "One of the members of the board, Mr. J. W. Cannon, vice-president of the Macon Savings Bank, says she is collecting money under false pre- retakes, and he has so advised the head of the Rotary Club of Newark, N. J., and Mr. E. Roger Miller, secre- cary of the Macon Chamber of Commerce, says he has written all over the North, informing the public that the no longer has the endorse- ment of the business men of this city. And he further states that the Col- leged Women's Federation Club and the Association for the Advancement of Negro Education, the former pre- ferred over by Mrs. M. L. Walker of the city, and the latter by Prof. A. Hunt of Fort Valley, request- ed to unmask Mrs. Braxton for the protection of the public." Mrs. Braxton operated with a group of young women and men musicians who are denominated as the Macon Institute ablieve Singers, most of whom are recruited from around New York City. It has been intimated that some of these people, the young women essentially, could tell of some other of Mrs. Braxton's actions, but this information is not readily forthcoming. One of the women, who sang with the Braxton's organization for a few weeks, is with the statement that she is suddenly island to come along to sing to the Braxton woman's place, but that some kind of a song seems always advised her doing as was suggested.

Paris, France—I forwent Paris and simply to spend a few days in the south-west corner of France. It was delightful to skip away from the humble, cold, bustling city and to revel under the intense blue sky and the brilliant sunshine of the Basque country, with its paling, its fruit trees in bloom, its ocean, and its calm. But it was not the beauty of that incomparable country, the opportunity to enjoy a bit of real spring in February, that called me. Such a privilege is only for those who are to the master born. My purpose was to study—not books, but men. The French Federation of Christian Student Associations was holding its eighteenth annual session in Bordeaux, Representative French students from every corner of France were gathering for four days of exchange of ideas, of making acquaintance, of concession. It was not only the desire that prompted but the duty, that compelled me to go, mingle with these students, study them and learn. Studying the Problem During my few months of study and travel in Europe I have become increasingly convinced that our race stands in need of a larger acquaintance with the problems that are confronting all classes, races and nations of men, and that from this acquaintance will follow the conviction that our problem is that one of the many great human problems, one of the great race and class problems with which men and women are everywhere struggling, and moreover, that the solution of our problem will be more easily found in the light of a broad and profound knowledge of world problems, their causes, the difficulties they have offered and the solutions to which they have yielded. And today presides an increased opportunity for the study of class, race, and national struggles; and whether it is the problem of India or Japan or Africa, or Russia, or the race conflicts of Central Europe, it is a problem that has an element more or less in common with our own, and ought to be studied by us with the closest attention. Even the study of a religious group, such as the Protestants of France, has its value. It is but another example of the unity and self-consciousness of a relative small group that inevitably follows its struggles with a larger and more powerful class. It was for the purpose of studying the problems of the students—in this instance, the Christian students of France—that I went to Bordeaux. Negro Question Ever Present Since Henson accompanied Every to the North Pole, we have become convinced that it is quite impossible to accomplish anything worth while, or even go anywhere of importance with the Negro, or at least the Negro question, absent. My wanderings have taken me into many parts, but whether it was in beautiful Italy, even in the "Eternal City," or among the Alps of Switzerland, or on the Unter den Linden of Berlin, the Negro was there. If it is at the meeting of the Assembly of the League of Nations at Geneva or of the International Congress of Democrats in Paris she is there. And, Bordeaux. A young native of Madagascar now a student of medicine in France preparing for a life of service among his black brother was a delegate to the Congress. And, more, the question of the Negro—the African, brother—found a prominent place in the thought of the Congress. Seldom a speech or a prayer but that "our brothers in Africa" were mentioned. And among the books that the Congress placed in the hands of the several hundred delegates I found "The Development of Negro Christians," in which one could read, "The gospel is not a deocrinistic or aristocratic, accessible only to the privileged and made only, for them. It is on the contrary the true universal and democratic religion which declares that all men, black, yellow or white are the sons of the same priests, and are capable of exercising the same rights, and describes the work being done by African Christians as remarkable and which declares that there are among the leaders those who would wander well among Christian leaders in Europe. Fnor Striking Negro Statsua And there was a pamphlet on "The Conflict between the Missionary and the National Duty," in which the effort is made to show that not only is there no conflict between the two but that the duty of Christianizing foreign lands is a national duty. It was with a sense of satisfaction that, at the close of the Congress, I quit Bordeaux. Then, taking advantage of the proximity of the ocean side, I spent the week-end in the vicinity of the beautiful roanot, Bierrair, drinking of the pure ocean breeze, gasting upon the majestic snowcrowned Pyrenees, touching foot upon Spanish soil. And it was in Hendaye, a town overlooking the sea that I now before a magnificent hotel, convalescence of man or all nations, the statues of four splendid Negro types, holding high above their holds brilliant lights-flights visible fan at sea, lights illuminating the paths of those ashore. We can imagine, we can hope, that there is a symbol, symbol of the light, intellectual and moral, that our race shall hold up to the world. J. H. DICKERSON MADE PRESS. OP SONG N. C.

Washington monument, which will be unveiled on April 5th, at Tuskegee Institute. They suggest the story of an ambition American boy, who, after leaving the public schools of New York City, went to the Art Students League and studied at night for seven or eight years. For three years Charles Keck worked with Philip Martinty, a well-known sculptor of New York, who did some fine work for the World's Fair in Chicago. For five years he worked with Augustus St. Gaudens, while this famous sculptor was making his Peter Couper for New York, his Robert Gould Shaw Movement for Boston, his General Logan for Chicago, his President Gerald for Philadelphia, and his General Sherman for New York. In 1900 Charles Keck competed for and won a scholarship in sculpture, offered by the American Academy in Rome. In 1904 he was graduated. He remained a year longer in Rome and returned to the United States in 1905. To see Mr. Keck's figure of Booker T. Washington is to carry away the picture of a man who stood up straight and then under the heavy burden of millions of Negroes, who carried in the dread of his forehead and face the signs of Victorious struggle, and who cared for his clothes than for service in his workmen. Charles Keck has made the Beguier T. Washington monument at Tuensing a veritable masterpiece of the sculptor's art. The work for, which Mr. Keck is already well known in art circles is found in widely-scattered centers; a few include a twelve-foot square of Mohammedanism, for the Brooklyn, New York, Institute of Arts and Sciences; a twelve-foot sized figure of Youthful America, the Soldier Memorial in Pittsburgh; a monument of George Washington for Buenos Aires, South America; the Lewis and Clarke monument and the Skewneil Jackson monument, both erected in Charlotteville, Va.; a ninety-five foot monument, which the American Chamber of Commerce of Benaul will present next September to the government of Brazil at its centennial celebration. The base includes four large size figures—Washington and Lincoln, Bonifacio and Rio Barranco. The Booker T. Washington Monument will be unveiled April 5th, and Dr. Wallace Buttrick, president of the General Education Board, will deliver the Founder's Day address. SEN.

Scott of Bloomfield, recently admitted to the church, presented the officers with a handome stock. Responses were made by William F. Gondine on behalf of the truce board and Robert H. Willis in part of the deeds. The Christian Endeavor service proved to be one of the most entertaining and helpful occasions we have had this year. The topic was "Hobbs, good and bad." Milton Taylor of Newark delineated the topic. He spoke of how God had delivered our race from bondage, even as He did the children of Israel, and how He favored us. But we are getting away from God—we have ceased to live in communion with Him, and except we again become true believers, living rightly, we will surely enter a second bondage, which even today is creeping upon us through discriminations. George Schultis followed with remarks equally interesting and helpful. Though a member of the other race, he proudly stated that he believed firmly in the omness of mankind, brotherhood in Christ, and was living it before the world. Until the Christian world awakens to the fact that all races are brothers in Christ, we cannot hope for the fullest possibilities to be developed in any race. ELIZABETH. N. I. Elizabeth, N.

This corrects the stomach and neutralizes the acidity in a few moments and is a perfectly pleasant and inexpensive remedy to use. An antiseptic such as distilled Magnesia which can be obtained from any drippage in either powder or tablet form enables the stomach to do its work properly without the aid of artificial drippers.

CATARRH IN BLAPON EAST TOWERS SAFE SUCCESS The Teacher Training Department The Divinity School COLOR AND CONSTITENCY, Jessica's Illustrated Weekly for which 11th appeared an article entitled the Negro's Color Lines, in which a writer, Y. Andrew Robertson, made a serious charge of a lack of con- dition on the part of the race, in the making of rigid color lines within its population. This charge is specifically again in the opening paragraphs, as shown. Here in the United States we hear and read a great deal about the "Color Line" and if the speaker or writer happens to be a Negro his information and bitterness leave us with little doubt that he considers its works as applied to himself, the opening disgrace of democracy. Yet the Negro race fails to observe even the shadow of consistency and draws purhaps more, rigid color lines within own ranks than the white brother does on the outside. The white man everywhere draws one but when the Negro takes his hands in hand he draws a hundred—especially in the South. I saw the South; because the great bulk of Negroes live there and will continue to do so, all things notwithstanding. Also, because outside of Dixie the "colored" lines, if they do not absolutely fade out, merge into lines of education, occupation and wealth, while in the South these attainments only serve to give new twists to the other lines which the Negroes draw among themselves. After thus laying the foundations for his exaggerated ideas of a color scheme among the race, Mr. Robertson bases his superficial observations upon such self-contradictory half-traits as the statement that "with few exceptions the other sections of the country know the race only in its capacity of half boy, janitor, porter, waiter, laundress, maid or scamgrass." He locates all the Negro bankers, oil magnates, millionaires and insurance operators in the South. Like also the laundress, post, composers, novelists, and the "farmer who counts his acres by the thousand and his livestock by the hundred." Leaving out the farmers, the bulk of whom are naturally found in the South, a fair proportion of those pursuing the other vocations can be counted in other sections of the country. But Mr. Robertson also has other funfamous notions on the color question, because further on we read that "down in Dixie Negro society is, like Cressar Gaul, divided into three parts: Yellows, Brown and Blacks, in the order named so far as social importance goes." He goes back to the time of slavery to define distinctions between the mulattoes and the pure blacks, the servants at the big house and the field hands, drawing upon old melodies to emphasize and reinforce his arguments. He goes so far as to differentiate fear that some wag has been imputed upon Mr. Roberson's crudity he goes so far as to embody an ability like this into a serious diar of racial variations, but the sense of his white readers as to the about the Negro is probably so that many of them will accept reality. His reference to the state of Louisiana is based upon a foundation of fact, but the difference between them and the Americans are properly attributed to growth ancestry and adherence to religious religion. more proposition in this article concerning serious mention is connected to last paragraph, in which follows: Mediterranean peninsula. Mediterranean plains in the north and south of the peninsula are densely populated by people. This is especially why of the Marroons who have found allies and strength in the coastlines of northeast through many tribes and populations. There is greater need for the instilling and provision of educated women though among the rate today can be any percentage enough in its history. Rat religion should not be allowed to be taken the instrument for the explanation of the race through the manifestations of designing men who adopt the role of minister and prophet for personal profit. The people who in their search for religion are made the victims of uncerulous and irresponsible practices, should be protected against this species of exploitation. Not long ago one of this stripe of self-called pastors, by some device, got control of the affairs of a small congregation in this city. The church did not have more than two hundred and fifty members, and their meeting place was sufficient for their needs. But the ambition of the new pastor was to have a big church, so the trustful flock was led into the purchase of an edifice valued at from $125,000) to $150,000. Their available funds were sunk into this white elephant and the congregation was saddled with a debt entirely too great for them to carry. The result was the loss of the property with all the money that they had put into it, whereupon the pastor left for fresher fields of exploitation. How to guard the smaller congregations of the independent denominations against such wolves in lamb's clothing is the question. The denominations that are governed through bishops and conferences are at least safe from interlopers of this character. The Baptists ost in Arkansas found a way to prevent the multiplication of churches of the denomination through their organization by the trustworthy authority, by calling a council, and refusing recognition to a proposed new church, on the ground that the existing churches filled all the needs of the community. There should be some organized effort on the part of the stronger churches here and their passions to protect the weaker congregations from the dangers involved by their falling into the control of incompetence and irresponsible pastors. A large city like New York becomes a favorite for religious organization of this character, owing to the large population and the fact that there are so many organizations of a religious character, that the doings of an independent church attract but little attention. Character and capacity should be inseparable qualities on the part of any man claiming to act as a pastor or preacher. Unless a candidate has present the strongest proofs of his training and ability to conduct both the religious and the business affairs of a congregation, he should not be allowed to fill its pulpit. Let the reputable preachers put up the bars against the intruders of false leaders and mercenary exploiters of religion. EDITOR NOT A HENCHMAN It is at least unethical for an editor to refer to a brother editor as a political henchman, as Mr. Moore of Terez New York Acct. did to the editor of the Atlanta Independent in the above excerpt. But we grant Brother Moore the charity of not knowing the technical definition of political henchman, and will take no exception to his error, for the reason that many of us are likely to use the word word when we get too far away from our Webster. Brother Moore means well and we will take his meaning for the need. We regret to have ruffled the dignity of a brother editor by the use of a cont political term, but we do not admit any japuch of ethics in the application intended. If Editor Davis will refer to his opinion of Webster, he will find that one of the definitions of henchman is given as follower, and that of course is the sense in which we used it. We are glad that Editor Davis was magnanimous enough to give The Age credit for well meaning, even if the method employed grated on his sensibilities. NEW THIRD PARTY argone who is a student of politics in the country that the political salvation of the country requires measure upon the existence of a third party; these are always in existence. And how many "third" parties there are until the vote at a presidential election. The average always amended to find out how many men are on tickets of various denominations. But salvation of the country is to be worked out must be worked out through a third party to defeat either of the major parties. Progressive movement was the last thing to succeed; but the Progressive movement died, and hopes for a real third party direction. There are no present indication that party, will be the realization of those hopes, which once loomed on the horizon, but out of business by the Prohibition Amendment. The last presidential campaign an effort was party that would be a factor through a coal labor elements and the Committee of Forty did not succeed. At the time it looked as though a labor party in the United States that respond to the Labor Party in England. He is now an effort on foot, backed by some movement to organize the Labor Party to be known as the Liberal Party. We need. At any rate, this movement starts out least over its immediate predecessor, and chosen for the party.

With a third which is a real political factor, the Negro cannot felt. Presentative program of the Liberal Party said with its principles as well as in its name. succeed. To anyone who is a student of politics in the United States it is plain that the political salvation of the country depends in a very large measure upon the existence of a third party. Of course, "third" parties are always in existence. A citizen never realizes how many "third" parties there are until he goes into the booth to vote at a presidential election. The average vote is then always amazed to find out how many men are running for President on tickets of various denominations. But so far as the political salvation of the country is to be worked out by a third party, it must be worked out through a third party, which is strong enough to defeat either of the major parties, if not to win. The Progressive movement was the last third party which bade fair to succeed; but the Progressive movement died before its founder died, and hopes for a real third party must turn in another direction. There are no present indications that the Socialist Party, will be the realization of those hopes. The Prohibition Party which once loomed on the horizon, has been definitely put out of business by the Prohibition Amendment. Just before the last presidential campaign an effort was made to form a third party that would be a factor through a coalition of the political labor elements and the Committee of Forty-eight, but the coalition did not succeed. At the time it looked as though we were going to have a labor party in the United States that would somewhat correspond to the Labor Party in England. There is now an effort on foot, backed by some of those who were in the movement to organize the Labor Party, to form a third party to be known as the Liberal Party. We hope that it will succeed. At any rate, this movement starts with one advantage at least over its immediate predecessor, and that is in the name chosen for the party. The name, Labor Party, is better suited to England than to the United States in the face of the fact that England is a monarchy and the United States a so-called democracy; because in England all persons who earn their livelihood, either through labor with the hands or the head, are eligible members of the Labor Party. We doubt whether writers and artists and scientists, etc., in the United States would, at least at present, feel that their place was in the ranks of the "Labor Party." But the name, "Liberal Party," would have a peculiar appeal for just such men as well as a general appeal to what is more strictly known as the working classes. A strong third party in the United States would not only go far toward working out the political salvation of the country at large but it could prove a very direct means through which the Negro could work out his own particular political salvation. As the Negro is now situated, politically, he is the victim of a sort of gentlemen's agreement between the two major parties. One openly declares and says that it does not want him while the other accepts him but privately agrees to reduce what it does for him down to the lowest minimum. With a third party in the field which is a real political factor, the Negro can actually make his weight felt. The tentative program of the Liberal Party says that it will be liberal in its principles as well as in its name. We hope that it will succeed. GANDHI A PRISONER. British Government in India has finally non-cooperationists by arresting, trying the leader of the movement. Gandhi was of sedition. The Standard Dictionary defends: "Language or conduct directed against put the tranquility of the state; disorder or state, not reaching the point of insurrection up of such disorder, tending toward attacking an overt act." Gandhi advocated non-cooperation with the government, preaching of such a doctrine practical. Gandhi has been sentenced to six years in prison. Through the whole trial he maintained hisers have ascribed to him, that of a prop, not try to exculpate himself. He declared for what he had done and that if he were continue to do the same things. He has can to abstain from violence but to continue to do non-cooperation which he has laid down to be seen what the effect of Gandhi the movement launched by him. The movement will be strengthened, that Gandhi is in prison than out. But what should in than anything else is what will be the first absorbing interest to know whether the advocated by Gandhi can be as effective as used by the Irish. If they are, it will use tendence and self-determination on the and groups who are prohibited the possession force. If non-cooperation brings the British India, there is no reason why it should no knees in Africa, nor is there any reason why a white man to his knees in the South. The British Government in India has finally come to grips with the non-cooperationists by arresting, trying and convicting Gandhi, the leader of the movement. Gandhi was arrested on charges of sedition. The Standard Dictionary defines "sedition" as follows: "Language or conduct directed against public order' and the tranquility of the state; dirorder or commotion in a state, not reaching the point of insurrection; also the stirring up of such disorder, tending toward treason, but lacking an overt act." Gandhi advocated non-cooperation with the government. No doubt the preaching of such a doctrine practically falls under sedition. Gandhi has been sentenced to six years in prison without labor. Through the whole trial he maintained the role which his followers have ascribed to him, that of a prophet and saint. He did not try to exculpate himself. He declared that he was not sorry for what he had done and that if he were released he would continue to do the same things. He has called upon his followers to abstain from violence but to continue to carry out the program of non-cooperation which he has laid down. It remains to be seen what the effect of Gandhi's arrest will be upon the movement launched by him. The indications are that the movement will be strengthened, that Gandhi will be more of a power in prison than out. But what should interest observers more than anything else is what will be the final result. It will be of absorbing interest to know whether the means and methods advocated by Gandhi can be as effective as the methods of violence used by the Irish. If they are, it will mean a new hope for independence and self-determination on the part of those peoples and groups who are prohibited the possession of the implements of force. If non-cooperation brings the British to their knees in India, there is no reason why it should not bring them to their knees in Africa, nor is there any reason why it should not bring the white man to his knees in the South. CLASSIC MUSIC IN NEW YORK subtly New York is thought of by the real exclusive home of jazz music. There are opinions. It is in New York that ninety-nine of jazz music live and do their work. The greater part of the musical, performance of jazz music are produced. Many of the in any city but New York. It is also in N. a large number of restaurants and cafes. similar music is played. But the idea that by the home of jazz music is a great error. York is also the home of classic music, deities of Boston. This is especially true New York is the only city in the country one great symphony orchestra. Some Undoubtedly New York is thought of by the rest of the country as the exclusive home of jazz music. There are good reasons for this opinion. It is in New York that ninety-nine per cent. of the writers of jazz music live and do their work. It is in this city that the greater part of the musical, performances that make a specialty of jazz music are produced. Many of these shows are never seen in any city but New York. It is also in New York that there are a large number of restaurants and cafes and cabarets where popular music is played. But the idea that New York is exclusively the home of jazz music is a great error. New York is also the home of classic music, despite the traditional claims of Boston. This is especially true of symphonic music. New York is the only city in the country that supports more than one great symphony orchestra. Some one may ask, how many people, after all, of the population of New York go to Carnegie Hall to hear the Philharmonic or the New York symphony Orchestra or to see the Manhattan Opera house as most What to be will need to know, the primary law-series here and more than they apprehend and enjoy A. They are drawn through the super motion picture theatres of New York. An article by Mr. Dressa Taylor, the music critic of the World," in that paper for last Sunday, gives a survey of music in these motion picture theatres which is astonishing to anyone who is not familiar with them. He points out that the five super motion picture theatres of New York—the Capitol, the Criterion, the Rialto, the Rivoli and the Strand—each maintains a high class symphony orchestra with a library of standard orchestra music, librarians, copyists, and all the other personnel of the symphony orchestra, including high priced conductors and assistant conductors. As Mr. Taylor points out, these orchestras do not indulge in operatic potpourris and so-called "popular classics." Their performance consist of the same pieces that appear upon the programs of the best symphony orchestras of the country, the Boston Symphony, the Philharmonic, the New York Symphony, the Philadelphia Symphony. These five orchestras play to thousands where the symphony orchestras play to hundreds and the people prove that they enjoy the music, for they continue to pack these great theatres. Never have any of these orchestras found it necessary to lower the standard of their performances. It is difficult to estimate how much they are doing to educate the tastes and the appreciation of the average New Yorker for first class orchestral music. It is true that New York is the home of jazz, but the question may well be asked, how many other cities in the United States are supporting five, four, three, two, or even one first class symphony orchestra in motion picture theatres? WROGING DIAGNOSIS. In the Weekly Bulletin of the Department of Health for March 11th, the attention of physicians, especially, those attached to public dispensaries, was called to a mistake in diagnosis. Three cases of smallpox had been discovered in New York-City, the preceding week which had a common origin. One of these cases was treated for several days as syphilis, receiving "mixed treatment" by mouth. It is said that such a mistake is especially apt to occur in those cases of mild clinical symptoms, so common nowadays, and when the opportunity for extended individual examination, as in dispensary service, is limited. There are records of many similar errors in diagnosis in the past according to the Bulletin, but the opportunity for spread of smallpox through such a case as mentioned is great. The Department especially requests all physicians to be on guard, particularly if called to treat a supposed case of popular syphilis fro out of town, "in a colored person." The greatest effort is urged to increase the percentage of the vaccinated, in the Greater City. Attention is called to Bridgeport, Conn., where vaccination was neglected for years and where such a number of cases of smallpox have occurred during the recent months, that the same number in New York would have created much apprehension. This warning from the Department of Health is timely and testifies to the vigilant care exercised by Dr. Royal S. Copeland, Commissioner, and his alert assistants. It should be beckoned by all physicians coming in contact with the classes of disease specified. But we are curious to know why the special vigilance enjoined to guard against such a case as described from out of town, "in a colored person." UNDER IN SOUTH AFRICA. The latest outbreak in South Africa, which was subsided by the government forces under Gen. Jan Smuts, with considerable loss of life, was marked by the abstention of the natives from active participation. According to the Reuter correspondent at Johannesburg, Premier Smuts declared that the behavior of the Rand natives had been beyond reproach, "but the whites had nothing to be proud of." While the outbreak started as a strike among the white miners, it soon took on the aspect of an insurrection against the government, involving thousands of Boer sympathizers. Probably the fact that it was the Boers against the government, kept the natives from feeling any sympathy with the strikers. Harah as has been the British rule, it has not equated the brutality of the Boers in the days before the Union of South Africa became a fact. It was therefore good policy for the natives to stand behind the government, or at least to remain from among those who would perish it. Of the days to come, their attitude, may command for them a longer measure of justice and cooperation. The spirit of unrest and revolt against oppression and exploitation is seething and breaking out in all parts of the world. Unless proper measures are taken to allay this unrest and correct the abuses of political and commercial power, these outbreaks are bound to continue. Isaac F. Marrasson in his account of his trip, "Cape to Cairo," some time ago, said that the government of the Cape Colony is becoming convinced that Booker Washington's idea is the sole solution of the native race, that is the training of the hands. Gen. Simuts is said to have expressed his hearty approval of it. Gen. Botha was credited with having a plan for setting aside forty million acres of land for the natives to work out their destiny, but died before he could put it in operation. This scheme, it is said, is likely to be carried out by Gen. Simuts. The trouble is that much plamp as these are only carried out to the extent that they lead to further exploitation and profits for the white primates. --- According to the Dallas Express, the local Interdenominational Alliance of Ministers registered its unalterable opposition to Sunday funerals and adopted a resolution to that effect. Its reasons embodied in this resolution are: That too often interment of bodies is postponed simply for the added ceremony possible on Sunday; that church services suffer because of the preparations for them by bodge members; that extended fraternal burial ceremonies rob the church services of its sanctity and that such occasions, as they are new conducted, are not sanctioned by the dictates of enlightened society. The Express also gave unqualified support to this action by the ministers. The time honored institution of Sunday funerals seems to have waned with the advancing progress of the race. --- The Oklahoma City Black Dispatch dealt with the question of employing idle capital in the following manner: The opportunities are many for the aggressive and progressive Negro man west of Oklahoma City to do business. Recently Oklahoma City Negro Business League running an ad in the Black Dispatch, telling about these chances for businessity. The response has been wonderful. One man writes in today's mail that he is coming to investigate the chance to establish an ice cream factory. He says he knows the game and has access to the necessary funds to put his deal across. Another lady writes that she and her husband would like to put in a good second hand story, provided the school system is good so that her children can develop properly. She says she and her husband have the necessary funds to put in a real store. Another man has written with regards to the establishment of a bank, then a photographer, a plumber and an export department. To all of these persons and authorities the Black Dearborn you welcome. Come on, we want the best global business in the state. We have a big Navy in Oklahoma City and will trade in you if you deliver the goods. The Negro through buying "color" he wants the "black" those days and say Negro who owns Oklahoma City with sufficient money and capital can make agency.

If you will permit me space in your paper I shall be very grateful to you. What I want to find out is whether Young Men's Christian Association is a charitable institution or is it a business enterprise, depending upon patronage of the public? A young man came to see me Wednesday, March 8th, stating that he had to see Mr. Simmons, employee secretary of the 135th street YMCA, in reference to a position, and was told that a position was open but would have to pay 10 per cent of first month's salary. The man told that he had no money but he could make arrangements with the man that he was going to work for and then could have 'he amount stopped.' Mr. Simmons told him that could not done. Another man came to me last night saying that he had been to the front, and had been shell-shocked, and told the same story—that he had been to Mr. Simmons and that he did not do any good for him, considering that his man was one of those who had left his home and had no money to give to some of them that remained. His condition should have been into consideration and that it was not the case that he should have been in the army. He told me that the army told us we knew just how those they knew we should not forget those who did their part in the World War. * LUCIEN REEBERG. New York City. THE ANTL-LYNCHING BILL. Editor of the New York Act: A few weeks ago, when the Lynching Bill was before Congress, the vote I noticed that social reform (3) grew toward against the Greggians. Congressman Richard Wiley Wayne Parker of New Jersey, I happen to know Congressman Parker, as I wrote him that my only regret concerning his attitude on the Anti-Lynching Bill was that I did not live in his State and District, for although he has represented his District in Congress for more than twenty years, and the Negroes have supported him to a man, yet I were a resident of New Jersey, and of his District, I would certainly use my influence against him when he comes up for reelection. To justify his action, he has sent me his speech on the Bill, delivered in the House, asking me to read it before passing final judgment. But after reading it carefully, I cannot agree with his point of view. What I should like to see is that every Negro voter in America, where Negroes are allowed to vote, would write to the Senators of their respective District, and let them know that their records were being looked after ascertained this particular Bill. They should not be threatening letters, but let them know that is the Republican, the same person to stand behind the promises of the party. It this is done in time, I am sure that the Republican Senate will begin to think seriously about this Bill. Negroes are not taking the interest they should in this matter. ANDREW J. BRANIC New York City PRESIDENT HARDING AND THE DYER BILL Editor of THE NEW YORK ACE: For the good of his country, Abraham Lincoln, after seeing the sale of poor colored men and women at one sale marries at 40. Of course I get the chance to see him. I will sit in and will hit it all. Now, respecting the passage of the famous Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, gives President Harding a chance to walk in the footsteps of the greatest of all the presidents this country has ever had. President Abraham Lincoln, human slavery was a curve in the sight of God, and a lasting chance and disgrace on Christian civilization. But, as had as it was, it was nothing to be compared with the burning at the stake of human souls. So President Harding has the chance of his life to hit the infamous, diabolical crime, and it should be a great pleasure to him to hit it and hit it hap! But merely waiting for the Anti-Lynching Bill to pass the House and Senate, so that he may sign it, doesn't help matters very much; for it seems that if the good President would just break out, so that the whole civilized world will know just where he stands, the future lynchers in Christian America would have a hard road to travel. President Harding can do no greater good for his country than to have it called that lynching—which was merely wielded at by his predecessors—was wiped out under his administration. Better that the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill had never been introduced and passed the House of Representatives if it fails to pass the Senate and become a law. For if the Senate fails to convene with the action of the House it can mean nothing else not to notify the damnable motto to prosecute with the baffled work—for the highest trump of the American government is with them. If their bill fails to pass the Senate, then the criminal courts threaten that the country should be abolished. For why should the police be burdened with the salary of their commonwealth attorney, shepherds and other officials, when the federal mollusk willingly do their work for milion. It is said that Nero gallicus w Rome burned. But let the American people pray and come to God that our President will not play call and be afflicted with the punishment of his soul.

At the same time there were from Samson and Delilah, Cavalieria Rusticiana, Aida, Rigolotto and that are more frequently used as concert numbers. A rental as Mr. Williams prompted on this occasion serves the very of faniliarizing the audience with gems of the Italian and French and at the same time affords an opportunity for aspiring artists to demonstrate their vocal possibilities in a realm which is seemed to them from a histrionic point of view. Some promising voices of the evening were Minnie Brown, Marguerite Avery and Mary, sopranos; Mary L. Varlach, mezzo soprano; Ella Berry and Masco contratos; Charles H. Waters, tenor; Harold DesVernay and W. Tarrant, baritones; William C. Elkins, basso; L. Franklin Dyer, Mt. Olivet Church and his choir; Allie Ross, accompanist; Mr. was the director. Messrs. Waters, Tarrant and Elkins were the artists. Williams' reputation as a teacher of singing could well be entrusted to emphachments of two of his pipilis, both sopranos—Misa Minnie Brown Marguerite Avery. The first named has long been a favorite, not New York audiences, but in many other of the largest cities of the city she has frequently appeared in recital. he has presented another singer who will reflect great credit in construction. Marguerite Avery sang the florid aria, "Ritorina vinci-Asia," (Ferdi), and her singing was one of the high lights of the show in precious colorful voice and she has acquired a technical skill in it in mind. They too have inspirations. with such resources of physical power. Her other numbers were the solo in the "Inflammatus" from Stabat Mater (Rosini), and the part of the Rigoleto (Verdi) quartet, "Balla figlia dell'amore," due to impressive heights, especially in the Rosini obbligato, except when asked the final high C.

Prof. Jackson began his address with a quotation from Benjamin Brawley, one of the foremost Negroes of the present time, who says that the Negro's greatest contribution to civilization has been an aesthetic, or artistic, one. Music and poetry have been his two most distinctive contributions, limited of course, in amount and character. Prof. Jackson's discussions were from the standpoint of the cultural contributions of the Negro. He was dealing also with the Negro in the United States, which he explained left out some of the greatest Negroes of history. The two greatest, he said are Alexander Dumas, Frenchman, and Alexander Puskin, of Russia. He also passed attention to Rene Maran French Negro, who has recently published his book "Batimala," for which he was awarded the *Prix Goncourt*, famous prize given for the greatest literary production of the year. Prof Jackson also created the Negro in his discussion not as a theme, as have Joel Chandler Harris, Cabell, Page and others, but showed what the Negro himself has contributed. He first took up the Negro in art, and his first division was music. He spoke of the folk songs of the race and the spirituals. The greatest Negro musician, said Prof. Jackson, is Samuel Coleridge Taylor, who lived in England. Another well known musician is Harry T. Burklein, singer and composer, for years baritone soloist in St. Google's in New York, and others mentioned were Will Marion Cook, Rasenard Johnson, Roland Hayes, and Patti Bridges. Mary Ann, born in New York City, died on December 15, 2015 at the age of 94. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, and beloved wife to her children, Dr. Martin and Linda, and her many nieces and nephews. Mary Ann was born in New York City, and grew up in Brooklyn. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, and prod. Joseph married Editha Lovis and then Worcester Parker as of the time of her death. The Negro on the stage was the most subversive and Rage Williams, of the Kingwood Phillip and Charles S. Gipson, a prominent actor, was given as four-word regressivist in an essay Fred Douglas, Buster T. Washington, Joseph C. Pine and Charles T. Walker were cited as the expositor. The second poet of Fred Jackson's address was given over to the subject of the Negro in literature. Carter D. Wideman was mentioned as a historian of note. W. E. B. DaBois, editor of *The Ozipie*, Negro magazine, was said by Mr. Jackson to be perhaps the most brilliant of the Negro journalists, and Dudka and Kelly Miller the most noted co-writers. In the field of biography Mr. Jackson said that Boehner T. Washington's "Up From Slavery," and Major Moson's "Finding the Way Out," are perhaps the greatest examples. Charles W. Chestnut, a North Carolina Negro, who lived some time at Fayetteville, was mentioned as an out-standing representative of the Negro as a novelist, and two of his books given "House Behind the Cedar," and "The Conjure Woman." Paul Lawrence Dumbar was also cited as a representative in this field. Prof. Jackson traced the rise and development of poetry in the race from the earliest poet, Phyllis Wheatley, to George Moses Wharton of North Carolina, who wrote much of his poetry while serving as a janitor at the University of North Carolina. The four outstanding poets given by Prof. Jackson were James Weldon Johnson, Benjamin Brawley, William Stanley Braithwaite and Paul Lawrence Dumbar. He said that Dumbar and Braithwaite are the most famous. In addition to Prof. Jackson's address the following delightful music program was rendered, the occasion being the literary meeting of the Greensboro Women's club: 1. Sketches (Violet): a.

Dear air: I have just read in the Daily Record a synopsis of your very fine address last evening before the Wom- man's Club of this city, on the sub- ject, "The Negro in Art and Literature." Please allow me to congratulate and commend you for what I regard not only an unselfish, but a very distinct service rendered a race that is making gradual but sure progress along every line of wryly endeavor, despite its many handicaps. Such an act as this of yours cannot but result in a more tolerant spirit, more generous sympathy and a larger measure of respect and good will and understanding between the best elements of both races. VICE-PRESIDENT'S OFFICE Greenboro, N. C., March 17, 1922 Prof. C. H. Moore, Crys. Dear sir--It has been impossible until now for me to acknowledge the receipt of your greatly appreciated letter of March 1st. I think I understand fully the spirit in which you wrote; and I think too, that you understand my viewpoint. The reception which has been accorded this lecture, wherever I have given it, has been really gratifying. By that I do not mean anything personal; but I mean the attitude of people towards the subject discussed; not towards me. I am sure that you, and all good friends of both races, white and Negro, should be grateful at the attitude people have taken towards the subject. It is exceedingly encouraging. Thanking you again for your thoughtful and courteous letter, I am. Sincerely yours, W. C. JACKSON. DAIRY Prampin King of Milton W. C. JACKSON W. C. JACKSON W. C. JACKSON W. C.

And the assertion is made that not until the minority of the committee decided to sticking to Taylor did Dr. Hirbspy, through the instrumentality of another committeeman, a prominent member of his church, become actually identified through membership with the 135th street branch. Undefined rumors are to the effect that other members of the present committee have not escaped the secretary's stirs and criticisms. It is alleged that the Rev. R. M. Bolden and A. T. Anderson have at times, under cover of privacy, been the objects of Mr. Taylor's condemnation, though it is not believed that they have any infination of the alleged shafts directed at them by their supposed friend. Unprecedented Decrease. The colored citizens of New York City, directly interested in the welfare of the Harlem Y. M. C. A., and desirous for its permanency, an interest evinced, by an $80,000 investment in the 135th street property and responsibility for a mortgage which was $45,000 originally, are appalled by recent reports which show an unprecedented decrease in membership and income of the 135th street branch. According to figures which have become available, the enrollment reached its highest point, approximately 1,900, about July, 1920, under plans originated and supervised by the then membership secretary, George H. Alston, who, after being granted a month's sick leave, without pay, was dismissed from the "Y" service by Taylor on April 1st, 1920, while he, Alston, was still on sick report. In the meantime, however, mainly, it is said because of disclosures concerning the secretary's alleged indiscretions, the membership was steadily decreasing. This decrease continued until in January, 1922, it was reported to have dropped to a bare 200. Income Loss Nearly 50% And there has been a corresponding falling off in the financial income. Accurate figures are not available, but it is known that in 1920 the income received from public contributions totalled close to $4,000. But contributions from the public during 1921 were probably but a trifle more than $2,500, certainly not more than $2,700. And this decrease in financial support is shown also in the falling off of membership fees and the curtailing of income from the physical department. Membership fees for 1920 reached a total of more than $9,000, but it is not believed that 1921 shows more than about $1,500, and it is thought that the physical department showing is even poorer. In 1920, interest in physical development and promotion of health by exercise, resulted in the 155th street branch gymnasium showing an income of approximately $5,000, but for 1921, this fell to the neighborhood of $2,700. In other words, total receipts for 1920 were approximately $10,000, while for 1921, one year later, the receipts fell to less than $2,000, nearly a fifty per cent drop. Colored people who contributed liberally and without stint to the support and upkeep of the 53rd street branch, to the fund which made possible the expansion and removal to Harlem, and to its maintenance in the latter section, are wondering now how long the institution will be able to last if Taylor is retained as executive secretary, and the decrease continued in proportionate rate for the next year or so A CORRECTION : The following letters from W. C. Cole, formerly business secretary at the 135th street Y. M. C.

R. is dedicated to the young Porter who was considered of the wight, but had visiting her for some time, and that he was jopeless of Higgs, also an admirer of the woman. It is allowed that Porter gives up to the Thompson home, intending to take her for a drive, but that she and Higgs were just leaving the house. Porter states that as he was getting out of the buggy, Higgs rushed by him. "Believing that he intended harming me, I naturally fired and protect myself." Higgs was shot "four times, dying shortly afterwards in the Harwichock Hospital. When Mrs. Thompson saw Higgs fall, she screamed and ran back towards the house, but Porter was evidently crushed beyond control, for he hurried his pistol and fired one shot at her. The bullet ploughed through the woman's head and she died instantly. Young Porter then went quietly home and told his mother that "something had happened, but gave me further explanation. The police found him this. We gave as a reason for shooting the woman, that "I was mad at her because she had egged me on". Mr. and Mrs. Porter, whose standing is reported to be of the highest in the community, stated that Mrs. Thompson had frequently called Horace on the telephone, inviting him to her house. The youth had been employed in a silk factory at Lobi, a suburb of this city.

Albemarleia, Va.-The Rev. Richard M. Windsor of Rayvillis is the proud owner of a service pack, with four bore and twelve stakes, which was sent him by former President Wendroom Wilkinson, in token of the fact that he had been the father of twelve sons who fought in the recent World War. A letter from the President of the colored minister which accompanied the medal is no highly prized that Rev. Windsor, although a poor man, declares he would not sell it for neveral thousand dollars. The twelve boys served through the entire period of the war, and only one was injured, that slightly. The entire group is said to be in France, having turned up for four year's service. An interesting fact as regards this family is that the twelve gods include one set of triplons, four sets of twins and only one boy who can enter the world alone.

Garner of Grave Corporation national, Church, New York Canada, on the leading athlete of Hamilton College. Last week, he was already captain of the Buff and Blue basketball team for the 1923 season. Garner placing centre, has been one of the mainstays on the quintet during the past two years, and the minor co- nies as the reward of his brilliant work. Garner had featured practically every game during the past season by his exceptional speed and flair work. He proved to be one of the most con- tient scores of the Hamilton team, and his attacks of the Buff and Blue was very dependent upon his best pass- ing game. He is the first cooged- ed choice to lead a Hamilton team. Although a little less than the pre- trial Garner has often putted against exposing centres who had a handicap of several inches on him, and in- ternally he got sheltered on his rival. In the final game of the season against Brown University, a week ago, he showed to especially good advantage, shooting two field goals and holding his opponent soociless. The team this year will lose only one player, Capt. "Dutch" Stern being graduated in June, and although 18 place will be hard, to fill, the prospects are unusually bright for winning combination next season. The Hammond team this year was slow in getting started, and failed to hit its aerial stride until the season was more than half over. The Buff. and Blute, however, won three of the last four games, defeated R. P. L. Rochsterr and Brown, and living a hard fight to Colgate by a margin of three points. With the outstit practically intact for the 1923 season, Hamilton students are looking forward to a year of marked success. Garner is a junior in Hamilton College at Clinton, New York.

Young Norfolk began his ring career less than a year ago, and has developed into one of the best fighters in the 1900 pound class in the city. He is hardly more than a boy, and with careful training, will develop into one of the best lightweight boxers the race has produced in recent years. In the other contests of the evening, Battling Farrell of the 30th knocked out Kid Cramer of the 102nd Medical Regiment in the second round of a scheduled four-round bout; Satisfaction Brooks of the 30th won the judge's decision over Erickie Burt of the Naval Lionel Barrymore and Miri Davismount Pictures Boomers Attractions at the ROOSEVELT March 23rd JUNIOR SPORTS RECORD By JIMMIE WARD. The Laffalo Junior Provisory game on Wednesday and Thursday evening they journeyed to the Milton House at 6:00 street and Avenue A and defended the Madras House "5" to the score of 5-2. The game was horribly contested and at times many exciting and interesting plays were made on the part of both teams. Carter-Gregory, Merrone, De Soto and Turner were at their best. On Thursday evening, they shaded an All Star team to pose. During the arrest half they foiled ground and let the Star keep right behind them as the score at the end of that period was 12-16 in hittable favor. In the second half they tore away from the "Stars" then come dust really was kicked up. When the dust cleared at the end of the second session the score was 40-24 with the "Stars" on the small end. Friday night was a busy night for our friend "Dut聪" thusswood the referee at St. Mark's Hall. Ask him, it tell you.

The Columbia Cubs succeeded in bringing the mighty Alpha Moguls down a step or two lower when this defeated them to the name of "10-20. "Stretch" Grant, for some unknown reason did not play during the first session. Columbia took advantage of this and started from the beginning, completely outlasting the Alpha Moguls. Dyer made the first basket for Columbia, then Nanton "popped" a foul. After this the feathers flew high. Columbia was making them at ease. Of course Regee Montoc (old Invisader) made one now and then. At the end of the first half the score stood with Columbia leading. The second half was a "foul." At the beginning, as if dropped from a cloud, two Hon. Regee Montoc appeared in the middle of the floor, stockingings. This didn't bother the Cubs in the lead, but looked care of the "lonfellow" at center while H.C. Parker and Joe Stoller rematched as the "old guardy." With "Stretch" in the game Alpha wipe up and Columbia kept up the winning pace. Fast play kept featured in the final game. When the final whistle blew, Columbia was declared the winner.

Everybody seemed to sympathize with the score, whereas he had his hands full. The Orginal girls put up a still but the New Yorkers kept the margin. It is reminored that this was the first, greatest suffered by the New Rockell girls, Boy, page the Blue Belts! When the end came the score was 8-5, finishing followed. Charles Majar, an officer of the Inter-High School Association and one of De Witt Clinton's entries in the high jump, broke the indoor record for that event, passing the previous record by nearly 2 inches at an annual Princeton meet held at the Tyman-second Terguianc "Arnoldy," Saturdays, March 19th. His distance was 5 feet 9.3-4 inches. Majar's deliberation of the form also won him much applause from hundreds of others that were not Clintonites. G. Gilmer, also of Clinton, placed third in the "Century," At this time F. Hussey, white, of Stuyvesant, broke the 100-3rd record by 1-5 second. The previous record was 10.2-5. His time was 10.1-5 seconds. We are looking forward to the time when Gilmer will get back to his old form. Cecil (Babe) Cook, of Clinton romped away with the "440." The "Habe" did not understand that the heat was to be the finals also. Therefore he took his time, usual but nevertheless the came out victorious. Fred Haudy, another of Clinton's dinky prides, stepped off in his same old manner with the 220-yard dash. K. Whecan of Boys' High, another colored boy, was second. Our friend, Kandy Taylor of Stuyvesant, the sector 50 yard record holder, was also entered in this event but was forced to retire before, half the distance was covered because of trouble with his leg. The St. Mark's Club won two more victories last Saturday evening, when they defeated the Kewpie Arrow Seniors, and the Academies. The St. Marks Juniors took care of the Kewpies in the first game. They made the Kewpies look like sims. The Juniors kidded them along, although they, could have run the score, score more than it was. The final score was 20-18.

The Nursery was first located at the West 353th street, where it remained until the building was sold. The management, feeling that congested Harlem offered greater opportunities for effective work, moved in January, 1910, to 221 West 134th street. In October of the same year, the Nursery was then compelled to look for new quarters on account of the sale of this property, and relocated at 114 West 134th street. Realizing that such frequent changes in location greatly handicapped the work, the board of managers felt that the was ripe to secure a permanent home, and for this purpose a building and committee was organized and a building fund started. On October 11, 1911, the Nursery became an incorporated body, to be designated as Hope Day Nursery for deprived Children, Incorporated. In 1914, through a legacy of the late Mrs. A. Williams's present home, Wee: 133rd street was bequeathed to the Nursery, thus giving them the permanent quarters they had so long desired. This property, though, was heavily encumbered, having a mortgage over 50,000, besides other liens. The building fund committee, which had been organized to purchase a home for the Nursery, was continued; and almost immediately turned its attention toward clearing the newly acquired property of its large indebtedness. Today, this property, located at West 133rd street stands as a lasting monument to the uniting efforts of this committee and its fellow-workers. The job was successfully accomplished, and the nursery is now free and clear property.
